however, that Buyer shall acquire the right of any Target Company to receive proceeds under such policies relating to derivative claims of equity holders or creditors of such Target Companies or direct claims of such Target Companies, in each
case, against any of Sellers’ directors or officers.
It is acknowledged and agreed that, except where specifically provided, this Section 2.2 speaks only to the retained assets of Sellers, and that, for the avoidance of doubt, no provision of this Section 2.2
shall apply to or shall be construed to limit the scope of the assets, properties, claims and rights acquired by Buyer indirectly through its acquisition of the Acquired Entities and the Acquired Equity Interests hereunder, it being understood that
Buyer shall indirectly acquire all such assets, properties, claims and rights except as otherwise expressly provided herein.
Section 2.3 Assumed Liabilities. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this
Agreement, at the Closing, Buyer shall (or shall cause Buyer Designee to) assume and be responsible for, effective as of the Closing, and thereafter pay, honor, perform and discharge as and when due, all of the Assumed Liabilities. “Assumed Liabilities” means the liabilities and obligations of Sellers set forth as follows:
21
(a) all Liabilities of Sellers relating to or arising under Assigned Contracts, but only to the extent that such Liabilities thereunder are required to be performed after the Closing Date and to

(b) all Liabilities of Sellers (other than in respect of Taxes) relating to, or arising in respect of, the Acquired Assets accruing, arising out of or relating to events, occurrences, acts or

the Closing; and
(h) any Cure Costs owed in connection with the Assigned Contracts.
It is acknowledged and agreed that, except where specifically provided, this Section 2.3 speaks only to the Liabilities assumed from Sellers, and that, for the avoidance of doubt, no provision of this Section
2.3 shall apply to or shall be construed to limit the scope of the Liabilities acquired by Buyer indirectly through its acquisition of the Acquired Entities and the Acquired Equity Interests hereunder, it being understood that Buyer shall
indirectly acquire all such Liabilities except as otherwise expressly provided herein.

22
(a) any Liability of any Seller relating to any Excluded Asset;
(b) all Liabilities under Indebtedness of the type referred to in clause (a) of the definition thereof of Sellers (including any Indebtedness or accounts payable owing from any Seller to an
Affiliate of such Seller);
(c) except for any Liabilities for Taxes that are Assumed Liabilities, all Tax Liabilities for Pre-Closing Tax Periods, including Pre-Closing Straddle Period Taxes, and any Tax Liabilities of
Sellers arising from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;
(d) all Liabilities of Sellers relating to employees of Excluded Subsidiaries and Sellers that are not Transferred Employees (“Excluded Employees”);

23
Section 2.5 Contract Designation Rights and Acquired Entities.
(a) Schedule 2.1(c) sets forth a list (the “Executory Contracts List”) of all Contracts
and Leases of Sellers that are subject to assumption or rejection pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code (each, an “Executory Contract”), and, following the date of this Agreement but prior to
the date that is three (3) days prior to the Auction, Sellers will add thereto their good-faith estimate of the Cure Costs associated with each Executory Contract. Sellers shall supplement such Executory Contracts List prior to the Designation
Deadline to add or remove any Executory Contracts inadvertently included or excluded from such schedule (and such supplement shall be acceptable (or not acceptable) to Buyer in its sole discretion) as soon as reasonably practicable following
discovery of inadvertent inclusion or exclusion, but in no event later than three (3) Business Days following such discovery.
(b) At any time prior to the Closing Date (the “Designation Deadline”), Buyer will have the right to amend or supplement Schedule 2.1(c)
to (i) designate an Executory Contract as an Excluded Contract, and upon such designation such Executory Contract will constitute an Excluded Asset, and (ii) designate an Executory Contract as an Assigned Contract and upon such designation such
Executory Contract will constitute an Acquired Asset and will be conveyed to Buyer, subject to Bankruptcy Court approval, under this Agreement effective as of at Closing. All Executory Contracts that are not designated by Buyer as an Assigned
Contract in Schedule 2.1(c) prior to the Designation Deadline shall not be considered Assigned Contracts or Acquired Assets and shall automatically be deemed Excluded Contracts (and for the avoidance of doubt, Buyer shall not be responsible
for any related Cure Costs); provided, however, that if an Executory Contract is subject to a cure dispute or other dispute as to the assumption or assignment of such Executory Contract that has not been resolved to the mutual
satisfaction of Buyer and Sellers prior to the Designation Deadline, then the Designation Deadline shall be extended (but only with respect to such Executory Contract and only while Buyer pays the ordinary course costs and expenses arising in
connection with such Executory Contract) to no later than the earlier of (A) the date on which such dispute has been resolved to the mutual satisfaction of Xxxxx and Sellers, (B) sixty (60) days following the Closing Date, (C) the date on which such
Executory Contract is either no longer permitted to be assumed or assigned or deemed rejected pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 365(d)(2) or (4) and (D) the date required by the Bankruptcy Court and set forth in the Sale Order (the “Extended Contract Period”). If such Executory Contract is not expressly assumed by Xxxxx in writing by the end of such Extended Contract Period, such Executory Contract shall be automatically deemed an Excluded Contract.
(c) Omitted Contracts.
(i) If following the Designation Deadline but prior to the expiration of the Extended Contract Period (to the extent applicable), it is
discovered that an Executory Contract should have been listed on Schedule 2.1(c) but was not listed on Schedule 2.1(c) (any such Executory Contract,
a “Omitted Contract”), Sellers shall, promptly following the discovery thereof (but in no event later than three (3) Business Days following the
discovery thereof), notify Buyer in writing of such Omitted Contract and all Cure Costs (if any) for such Omitted Contract, and provide Buyer a copy of such Omitted Contract. Buyer shall thereafter deliver written notice to Sellers, no later than five (5) Business Days following notification of such Omitted Contract from Sellers, designating such Omitted Contract as an Assigned Contract or Excluded
Contract (a “Omitted Contract Designation”). An Omitted Contract designated in accordance with this Section 2.5(c)(i) as an Excluded Contract, or with respect to which Buyer fails to timely deliver an Omitted Contract Designation, shall be an Excluded Contract.
24
(ii) If Buyer designates an Omitted Contract as an Assigned Contract in accordance with Section 2.5(c)(i), Sellers shall serve a notice (the “Omitted Contract Notice”) on the counterparties to such Omitted Contract notifying such counterparties of the Cure Costs with respect to such Omitted Contract and Sellers’ intention to assume and assign such
Omitted Contract in accordance with this Section 2.5. The Omitted Contract Notice shall provide the counterparties to such Omitted Contract with seven (7) Business Days to object, in writing to Sellers and Buyer, to the Cure Costs or the
assumption of its Contract. If the counterparty to an assumed Omitted Contract files an objection to the Cure Costs in a manner that is consistent with the Bidding Procedures, and Sellers, Buyer, and counterparty are unable to reach a consensual
resolution with respect to the objection, Sellers shall seek an expedited hearing before the Bankruptcy Court to determine the Cure Costs, if any, and approve the assumption of the relevant Omitted Contract. If no objection to the Cure Costs is
served on Sellers and Buyer, Sellers shall seek an order of the Bankruptcy Court, including by filing a certification of no objection, fixing the Cure Costs and approving the assumption of the Omitted Contract. In the event the Bankruptcy Court
determines the Cure Costs in a manner not acceptable to Buyer, Buyer reserves the right to designate such Omitted Contract as an Excluded Contract. Buyer shall be responsible for all Cure Costs relating to the Omitted Contracts that are designated
as an Assigned Contract.
(d) To the maximum extent permitted by the Bankruptcy Code and subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, on the Closing Date, Sellers shall assign the Assigned Contracts to Buyer
pursuant to Sections 363 and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code and the Sale Order, subject to payment by Buyer of the Cure Costs.
(e) Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as an attempt by Sellers to assign any Executory Contract to the extent that such Executory Contract is not assignable under the Bankruptcy
Code or otherwise without the consent of the other party or parties thereto, if applicable law would require such consent, and the consent of such other party has not been given or received, as applicable. With respect to any Assigned Contract for
which the consent of a party thereto to the assignment thereof shall not have been obtained at Closing and any claim, right or benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom, to the extent Buyer waives the condition set forth in Section 9.2(i)
(to the extent applicable), prior to the Closing Date, Sellers and Buyer shall use their reasonable good faith efforts to obtain as expeditiously as possible the written consent of the other party or parties to such Assigned Contract necessary for
the assignment thereof to Buyer. Unless and until any such consent, waiver, confirmation, novation or approval is obtained, Sellers and Buyer shall cooperate to establish an arrangement reasonably satisfactory to Sellers and Buyer under which Buyer
would obtain the claims, rights and benefits and assume the corresponding Liabilities and obligations thereunder (including by means of any subcontracting, sublicensing or subleasing arrangement). In such event, (i) Sellers will hold in trust for
and promptly pay to Buyer, when received, all moneys received by them under any such Executory Contract or any claim, right or benefit arising thereunder and (ii) Buyer will promptly pay, perform or discharge, when due, any and all obligations and
Liabilities arising thereunder, other than those being contested in good faith. Buyer acknowledges that no adjustment to the Purchase Price shall be made for any such Executory Contracts that are not assigned and that Buyer shall have no claim
against Sellers in respect of such unassigned Executory Contracts. Nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed a waiver of Xxxxx’s right to receive an effective assignment of all of the Acquired Assets at Closing nor shall any Executory Contracts
covered by this paragraph be deemed to constitute Excluded Assets solely by virtue of this paragraph.
25
(f) Further notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, by written notice to Sellers, Buyer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, amend or revise Schedule A and Schedule
2.1(a) at any time and from time to time prior to the date that is two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, in order to add any direct or indirect Subsidiary of Sellers to such schedules (and such added Subsidiary shall be automatically
included as an Additional Seller for purposes of Schedule A or an Acquired Entity for purposes of Schedule 2.1(a)), or remove any direct or indirect Subsidiary of Sellers from such schedules (and such removed Subsidiary shall be
automatically deemed an Excluded Subsidiary for purposes of this Agreement). Only those Subsidiaries on the final Schedule A and Schedule 2.1(a) as of the date that is two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date shall be
considered Additional Sellers and Acquired Entities, respectively.
ARTICLE III
PURCHASE PRICE
Section 3.1 Good Faith Deposit. Simultaneous with the execution of this Agreement, Sellers, the
Pre-Petition Secured Lenders (on behalf of Buyer) shall execute the Deposit Assignment Agreement, pursuant to which such Pre-Petition Secured Lenders shall contingently assign $10,000,000 of secured claims under the Pre-Petition Credit Facility to
Sellers (the “Deposit Amount”). The Deposit Amount shall be retained by Sellers in the following circumstances: (i) at the Closing, at which time such Deposit Amount shall be credited against the Purchase
Price as set forth in Section 3.2; or (ii) if this Agreement is terminated under the circumstances set forth in Section 10.2(d). Except as described in the previous sentence, the claims under the Pre-Petition Credit Facility in the
amount of the Deposit Amount shall be deemed to have been re-assigned back to Buyer (or the Pre-Petition Secured Lenders) upon termination of this Agreement.
Section 3.2 Purchase Price. On the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, at the Closing, Buyer
shall (i) decrease the amount of principal due under the loans due under the Pre-Petition Credit Facility pursuant to the credit bid of such amount, by the Agent on behalf of the Pre-Petition Secured Lenders, pursuant to an irrevocable instruction
letter attached hereto as Exhibit E-1 (the “Pre-Petition Bid Direction Letter”) (such portion of the Purchase Price, the “Pre-Petition Credit Bid”), (ii) decrease the
amount of obligations due under the DIP Facility by the amount under the DIP Facility as of the Closing Date pursuant to the credit bid of such amount, by the Agent on behalf of the DIP Lenders, pursuant to an irrevocable instruction letter attached
hereto as Exhibit E-2 (the “DIP Facility Bid Direction Letter” and, together with the Pre-Petition Bid Direction Letter, the “Bid Direction Letters”) (such portion of the
Purchase Price, the “DIP Credit Bid” and, together with the Pre-Petition Credit Bid, the “Credit Bid” and the sum of the amounts set forth in (i)-(ii), the “Credit Bid Amount” which shall be $100,000,000), and (iii) assume the Assumed Liabilities as provided in Section 2.3 (the sum of (i)-(iii) above, the “Purchase Price”).
The payment of the Purchase Price shall be subject to withholding as required by applicable Tax Law; provided, however, that Buyer shall give Sellers at least five days written notice of any Taxes that Buyer or its Affiliates intend
to withhold and shall cooperate with Sellers in attempting to minimize any such withholdings. To the extent any amounts are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate Government Authority, Sellers shall be treated as receiving such amounts under
this Agreement. At the Closing, the Deposit Amount shall be applied to and included in the Credit Bid.
26
Section 3.3 Allocation of Purchase Price. The Purchase Price (and any amounts treated as purchase price
for U.S. federal income tax purposes, including the Assumed Liabilities) shall be allocated among the various Acquired Assets, in accordance with Section 1060 of the IRC and the applicable Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Allocation”). Buyer shall, not later than 90 days after the Closing Date, prepare and deliver to Sellers a draft of the Allocation for Sellers’ review and comments. Sellers shall provide comments to the draft
Allocation to Buyer within 30 days after delivery of the draft Allocation by Xxxxx and if Sellers do not provide any comments within such 30 days period, the draft Allocation prepared by Buyer shall be final and binding on the parties. If a Seller
timely makes any comments to the draft Allocation, Xxxxx and such Seller shall work in good faith to resolve any disputes within 20 days from the date such Seller delivers its comments to Buyer. Buyer will consider in good faith any timely received
reasonable comments provided by such Seller. Unless otherwise required by a final determination within the meaning of IRC Section 1313 or any equivalent provisions of non-U.S., state or local Tax Law, the Allocation, as finally determined pursuant
to this Section 3.3, shall be final and binding on the Parties and Sellers and Buyer shall (a) use such Allocation, as finally determined pursuant to this Section 3.3, for the purpose of making the requisite filings under Section 1060 of the
IRC, and the regulations thereunder, (b) report, and to cause their respective Affiliates to report, the federal, state, and local income and other Tax consequences of the transactions contemplated herein, and in particular to report the information
required by Section 1060(b) of the IRC, and to jointly prepare Form 8594 (Asset Acquisition Statement under Section 1060 of the IRC) as promptly as possible following the Closing Date and in a manner consistent with such Allocation, and (c) promptly
notify the other of the existence of any Tax audit, controversy, or litigation related to such Allocation. Notwithstanding the allocation of the Purchase Price agreed among the parties hereto pursuant to this Section
3.3 for the aforementioned Tax purposes, nothing in the foregoing shall be determinative of values ascribed to the Acquired Assets or the allocation of the value of the Acquired Assets for any other purpose.
ARTICLE IV

extent applicable), including the provision of adequate assurance for future performance with respect to the Acquired Assets and Assumed Liabilities, (y) any such designation not creating any Liability for Sellers or their Affiliates that would not

each case as amended to the date of this Agreement.
Section 5.2 Authority; Noncontravention.

provisions of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which such Seller is or will be a party, does not, conflict with, or result in any violation of, or default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to a
right of termination, cancellation, modification or acceleration of any obligation or to a loss of a benefit under, or result in the creation of any Lien upon any of the properties or assets of any Target Company or Mexican Entity under (i) the
Fundamental Documents of any Target Company or Mexican Entity or (ii) any judgment, order, decree, statute, Law, ordinance, rule or regulation applicable to any Seller or its respective properties or assets other than any such conflicts, violations,
defaults, rights, losses or Liens that would not have a Material Adverse Effect.
(c) No Consent of any Governmental Authority, or any third party, is required by or with respect to any Seller or Acquired Entity in connection with the execution and delivery of this
Agreement by any Seller and each Transaction Document to which such Seller or an Acquired Entity is or will be a party, or the consummation by such Seller or Acquired Entity of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, except for (i) the

any applicable requirements of any Antitrust Laws and (v) such other Consents as to which the failure to obtain or make would not have a Material Adverse Effect.
Section 5.3 Real Properties.
(a) The Leased Real Estate constitutes all of the real property (whether leased, subleased or licensed) used in connection with the Business. No Target Company owns any real property.
(b) Section 5.3(b) of the Disclosure Schedules lists each lease or sublease, including all amendments, modifications or supplements thereof, pursuant to which a Group Company
occupies any Leased Real Estate (collectively, the “Leases”). Sellers have delivered (or otherwise made available) to Buyer a true, correct and complete copy of each Lease, in each case, as amended or
otherwise modified and in effect subject to proper authorization and execution of applicable bankruptcy, receivership, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, equitable subordination or similar Laws of general application and
other Laws affecting creditors’ rights generally. Other than pursuant to a Lease listed on Section 5.3(b) of the Disclosure Schedules, none of the Target Companies has subleased or otherwise granted to any Person the right to use or occupy
the Leased Real Estate or any portion thereof. Except as would not have a Material Adverse Effect, (i) there is no pending or, to the Knowledge of Sellers, threatened condemnation or other legal proceeding of any type relating to the Leased Real
Estate or other matters affecting adversely the use, occupancy or value of the Leased Real Estate, except as disclosed on Section 5.6 of the Disclosure Schedules; (ii) the Leased Real Estate does not, to the Knowledge of Sellers, serve any
adjoining property for any purpose inconsistent with the use of such Leased Real Estate; and (iii) to the Knowledge of Sellers, neither the current use of the Leased Real Estate nor the operation of the Business violates any instrument of record or
agreement affecting the Leased Real Estate or any applicable legal requirements.

valid title to, or have good and valid leasehold interests in, all tangible personal property that is included in the Business, free and clear of all Liens other than Permitted Liens, except in each case as would not have a Material Adverse Effect.
To the Knowledge of Sellers, such owned and leased tangible personal property is in good working order, reasonable wear and tear excepted, except as would not have a Material Adverse Effect.
Section 5.5 Intellectual Property.
(a) The operation of the Business as currently conducted and the use of the Intellectual Property in connection therewith, to the Knowledge of Sellers, do not conflict with, infringe,

provisions of Section 3.1 (relating to the Deposit Amount), Section 10.2 (relating to fees and expenses) and Article
XII, which shall remain in full force and effect, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to release or relieve any party from any Liability for any fraud or willful breach by such party of the terms and provisions of this
Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, except in the event of fraud or willful breach by Sellers, (i) Sellers’ aggregate Liability for money damages in the event that the Closing has not occurred or does
not occur for any reason whatsoever, without regard to whether Buyer elects to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.1, shall be limited to the Expense Reimbursement if and to the
extent payable in accordance with Section 10.2 and (ii) the Expense Reimbursement, if and to the extent payable in accordance with Section 10.2,
shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of Buyer, whether at Law or in equity, in the event that Closing has not occurred or does not occur for any reason whatsoever, without regard to whether Buyer elects to terminate this Agreement pursuant to
this Section 10.1.
Section 10.2 Expense Reimbursement and Deposit Amount.
(a) The documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by Buyer and its Affiliates prior to termination of this Agreement in connection with this Agreement, the other Transaction
Documents, the Approval Order, the Sale Order, and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the fees and expenses of legal counsel, financial advisors, consultants and any other advisors that Buyer engages in its reasonable
discretion shall be payable in cash pursuant to this Section 10.2 in an amount not to exceed an aggregate of $1,500,000, to the extent applicable and subject to approval of the Bankruptcy Court (the “Expense
Reimbursement”). The Expense Reimbursement shall be payable to Buyer if this Agreement is terminated for any reason; provided, however, that (1) at the time of any such termination, any Alternative Transaction, as
applicable, has been proposed in writing or announced, (2) a binding agreement is entered into with respect to such Alternative Transaction on or prior to the date that is three (3) months following the date of termination of this Agreement, and
(3) Buyer is not in material breach of any of its material obligations under this Agreement at the time of such termination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Expense Reimbursement shall be immediately due and payable to Buyer
if Buyer terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1(e).
55
(b) Upon the occurrence of the events set forth in the foregoing, the Expense Reimbursement shall be payable to Buyer, provided that such Expense Reimbursement shall be paid to Buyer on
the later of (x) three (3) Business Days from the date of the occurrence of the events set forth in the foregoing and (y) twenty (20) days after the entry of a Bankruptcy Court Order approving the Alternative Transaction.
(c) Any obligation to pay the Expense Reimbursement hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional; such payment shall constitute an allowed administrative expense claim against each of
Sellers under sections 503(b)(1) and 507(a)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code and shall be payable as specified herein, and not subject to any defense, claim, counterclaim, offset, recoupment, or reduction of any kind whatsoever. Sellers and Buyer agree
that the Expense Reimbursement was a material inducement to Buyer to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and shall be payable as specified herein and not subject to any defense, claim, counterclaim,
offset, recoupment, or reduction of any kind whatsoever.
(d) In the event (i) Sellers terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1(e)(ii) or (ii) Buyer or Sellers terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1(b) and, as of the date of such termination pursuant to Section 10.1(b) all of the conditions set forth in Section
9.1 and Section 9.2 have been satisfied and continue to be satisfied (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing), then the Deposit Amount shall be
payable to Sellers. Sellers agree (i) that Xxxxx’s aggregate Liability for money damages in such circumstances shall be limited to the Deposit Amount and (ii) the Deposit Amount constitutes the sole and exclusive remedy of Sellers, whether at
Law or in equity, in the event that this Agreement is terminated under such circumstances, except in the event of Xxxxx’s fraud or willful breach. Sellers and Xxxxx agree that the Deposit Amount was a material inducement to Sellers to enter into
this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and shall be payable as specified herein and not subject to any defense, claim, counterclaim, offset, recoupment, or reduction of any kind whatsoever.
(e) Except as set forth above in this Section 10.2, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the other
Transaction Documents shall be paid by the party incurring such expenses, whether or not the Sale is consummated.
(f) This Section 10.2, and the rights and obligations created hereunder, shall survive termination of this Agreement.
56
ARTICLE XI
NO SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES AND CERTAIN COVENANTS
Section 11.1 No Survival of Representations and Warranties and Certain Covenants. None of the
representations and warranties of Sellers or Buyer contained in Article V and Article VI, respectively, including the Disclosure Schedules or any certificate or instrument delivered
in connection herewith at or prior to the Closing, and none of the covenants contained in Article VII to be performed on or prior to the Closing shall survive the Closing. The Parties’ respective
covenants and agreements set forth herein that by their specific terms contemplate performance after Closing shall survive until fully performed or until such covenant or agreement expires by its terms.
ARTICLE XII
MISCELLANEOUS
Section 12.1 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with,
the Bankruptcy Code and, to the extent not inconsistent with the Bankruptcy Code, the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to conflicts of law principles thereof.
Section 12.2 Jurisdiction; Forum; Service of Process; Waiver of Jury. With respect to any Action
arising out of or relating to this Agreement, each of Sellers and Buyer hereby irrevocably:
(a) consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court, as the sole judicial forum for the adjudication of any matters arising under or in connection with the Agreement.
After Sellers are no longer subject to the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court, each of Sellers and Buyer irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York and of the United States of America, in each case
located in Manhattan, (“Selected Courts”) for any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (and agrees not
to commence any Action relating hereto or thereto except in such courts) and waives any objection to venue being laid in the Selected Courts whether based on the grounds of forum non conveniens or otherwise;
(b) consents to service of process in any Action by the mailing of copies thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, or by recognized international express carrier or
delivery service, to Sellers or Buyer at their respective addresses referred to in Section 12.6 hereof; provided, however, that nothing herein shall affect the right of any party
hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by law, and
(c) WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN
CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS.
57
Section 12.3 Disclosure Schedules. The Disclosure Schedules shall be construed with, and as an
integral part of, this Agreement to the same extent as if set forth verbatim herein. Any item disclosed on any particular Schedule or in any particular part or section of the Disclosure Schedules shall be deemed to be disclosed on all Schedules
and in all parts or sections of the Disclosure Schedules if the relevance of such item to such other section of the Disclosure Schedules is reasonably apparent on its face, notwithstanding that such section does not state “except as set forth in
Section ‘__’ of the Disclosure Schedules” or words of similar effect.
Section 12.4 Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions hereof
shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors by operation of law and permitted assigns of the parties hereto. No assignment of this Agreement may be made by any party at any time, whether or not by operation of law, without
the other party’s prior written consent; provided, however, that Buyer may, without the consent of the other parties hereto, assign any of its rights, interests and obligations under this Agreement to one or more Affiliate(s) of
Buyer, which assignment, in either case, will not relieve Buyer of any obligations hereunder. Except as specifically provided for herein, only the parties to this Agreement or their permitted assigns shall have rights under this Agreement.
Section 12.5 Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents
constitute the full and entire understanding and agreement between the parties with regard to the subjects hereof and supersede all prior agreements relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as expressly provided herein, neither this
Agreement nor any term hereof may be amended, modified, supplemented, waived, discharged or terminated other than by a written instrument signed by Sellers and Buyer expressly stating that such instrument is intended to amend, modify, supplement,
waive, discharge or terminate this Agreement or such term hereof. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to or shall constitute a waiver of any other provision hereof (whether or not similar).
Section 12.6 Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries required or
permitted to be provided hereunder shall be in writing and given (i) by reputable international overnight courier, (ii) e-mail (or like transmission) with confirmation of transmission by the transmitting equipment or (iii) personal delivery, in
each case, at such Party’s address, e-mail address set forth below, or other address or e-mail address as such Party may hereafter specify by notice to the other Parties given in accordance herewith. Any such notice or other communication shall
be deemed to have been duly given as of the date so personally delivered or transmitted by e-mail or like transmission (or, if delivered or transmitted after normal business hours, on the next Business Day), on the third Business Day when sent by
reputable international overnight courier; or upon actual receipt by the Party to whom such notice is required or permitted to be given. The address for such notices and communications (unless changed by the applicable Party by like notice)
shall be as follows:

Section 12.7 Delays or Omissions. Except as expressly provided herein, no delay or omission to
exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to Sellers or Buyer upon any breach or default of any party under this Agreement, shall impair any such right, power or remedy of Sellers or Buyer nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such
breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach or default thereafter occurring; nor shall any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter
occurring. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of Sellers or Buyer of any breach or default under this Agreement, or any waiver on the part of any such party of any provisions or conditions of this
Agreement, must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing. All remedies, either under this Agreement or by law, in equity, or otherwise afforded to Sellers or Buyer shall be cumulative and not
alternative.
59
Section 12.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, including by
facsimile or other electronic transmission each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when each party hereto shall have
received a counterpart hereof signed by all of the other parties hereto. Until and unless each party hereto has received a counterpart hereof signed by the other parties hereto, this Agreement shall have no effect and no party hereto shall have
any right or obligation hereunder (whether by virtue of any other oral or written agreement or other communication). The exchange of a fully executed Agreement (in counterparts or otherwise) by electronic transmission in .PDF format or by
facsimile shall be sufficient to bind the parties hereto to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
Section 12.9 Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement becomes or is declared
by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, unenforceable or void, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect without said provisions; provided, however, that no such severability shall be effective if it
materially changes the economic benefit of this Agreement to any party. Any provision held invalid or unenforceable only in part or degree will remain in full force to the extent not held invalid or unenforceable.
Section 12.10 No Public Announcement. Absent the prior written consent of the other party, such consent
not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, neither Sellers nor Buyer shall make any press release, public announcement or securities filing with any Governmental Authority concerning the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Documents, except as and to the extent that any such party shall be obligated to make any such disclosure by this Agreement or by applicable Law, and then only after giving the other party hereto adequate time to review such disclosure and
consider in good faith the comments of the other party hereto and consultation as to such comments with such party as to the content of such disclosure, provided, however,
that nothing in this Section 12.10 shall restrict the parties hereto from making disclosures to the Bankruptcy Court or in filings in the Bankruptcy Court; provided, however, that, to the extent practicable, the disclosing
party provides the non-disclosing party with copies of all such filings or disclosures concerning the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, to be delivered to such non-disclosing party at least two (2) days in advance of any
such filing or disclosure and that the disclosing party shall consider in good faith any comments made by the non-disclosing party to such filings or disclosures. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the parties hereto and each of
their respective employees, representatives or other agents, are permitted to disclose to any and all Persons, without limitations of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions and all materials of any kind (including
opinions or other tax analyses) that are or have been provided to such parties related to such tax treatment and tax structure; provided, however, that the foregoing permission to disclose the tax treatment and tax structure does
not permit the disclosure of any information that is not relevant to understanding the tax treatment or tax structure of the transactions (including the identity of any party and the amounts paid in connection with the transactions); provided further,
however, that the tax treatment and tax structure shall be kept confidential to the extent necessary to comply with federal or state securities laws.
60
Section 12.11 Specific Performance. Sellers and Buyer agree
that irreparable damage, for which monetary relief, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its specific terms or is otherwise breached,
including if any of the Parties fails to take any action required of it hereunder to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. It is accordingly agreed that (a) Sellers or Buyer will be entitled to an injunction or injunctions,
specific performance or other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the parties’ respective covenants and agreements under this Agreement that survive the Closing, without the requirement of posting a
bond or other security, and without proof of damages or otherwise, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under this Agreement, and (b) the right of specific performance and other equitable relief is an integral
part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without that right, neither Sellers nor Buyer would have entered into this Agreement. The remedies available to Sellers pursuant to this Section 12.11 will be in addition to any
other remedy to which they were entitled at law or in equity, and the election to pursue an injunction or specific performance will not restrict, impair or otherwise limit any Seller from seeking to collect or collecting damages. In no event
will this Section 12.11 be used, alone or together with any other provision of this Agreement, to require any Seller to remedy any breach of any representation or warranty of any Seller made herein.
Section 12.12 Non-Recourse. All claims, obligations, liabilities, or causes of action that may be
based upon, in respect of, arise under, out or by reason of, be connected with, or relate in any manner to this Agreement, the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (including any representation or warranty made in connection
with or as an inducement to this Agreement) or the transactions contemplated hereby may be made only against (and are those solely of) the Persons that are expressly identified as parties to this Agreement. No other Person, including any of the
Parties’ Affiliates or any of their or their Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees, incorporators, members, partners, managers, stockholders, agents, attorneys, representatives, or any of their respective investment bankers, financial
advisors or lenders (collectively, the “Non-Recourse Parties”) shall have any liabilities for any claims, causes of action, obligations, or liabilities arising under, out of, in connection with, or related
in any manner to this Agreement or based on, in respect of, or by reason of this Agreement or its negotiation, execution, performance, or breach.
Section 12.13 Action by Sellers. Holdings shall be entitled to act on behalf of each Seller for any
action required or permitted to be taken by any Seller under this Agreement.
Section 12.14 Third Party Beneficiaries. The terms and provisions of this Agreement are intended
solely for the benefit of each party hereto and their respective successors or permitted assigns, and it is not the intention of the parties to confer third-party beneficiary rights upon any other Person, other than for purposes of Section
12.12, the Non-Recourse Parties.
