PAYMENT OF THE NOTES

Section 8.1 Payment; Maturity.

(a) Installment payments of principal of each Note shall be due and made at par, without any premium, commencing on the first Semi-Annual Date to occur after the six-month anniversary of the Commercial Operations Date (the “Principal Repayment Commencement Date”), on each Semi-Annual Date thereafter, ending on the Semi-Annual Date immediately prior to the Maturity Date, and in a final fixed installment on the Maturity Date, in accordance with the amortization schedule attached hereto as Schedule 8.1 and otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Notes; provided that, in the event that any such payment date is not a Business Day, such payments shall be due on the Business Day immediately preceding such payment date. Prior to (and not including) the Principal Repayment Commencement Date, interest accruing on the outstanding principal amount of the Notes shall be paid in kind and capitalized on the last day of each month by adding the aggregate amount of such interest to the outstanding principal amount of the Notes on each such monthly date.

(b) Outstanding principal on the Notes shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to 6.00% (or at the Default Rate to the extent applicable pursuant to the Shareholder Financing Documents), compounded on each Semi-Annual Date, occurring on or after the Principal Repayment Commencement Date, computed on the basis of a year of three hundred and sixty (360) days. The computation of interest hereunder shall be determined by the Company, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Except to the extent interest is capitalized in accordance with the second sentence of Section 8.1(a), accrued interest shall be due and payable in arrears (i) on each date that installment payments of principal become due pursuant to Section 8.1(a), (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of the Notes pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 8.4 and (iii) in the event that any payment of principal or interest is overdue or the Notes become immediately due and payable by reason of acceleration or declaration pursuant to Section 11.1, on demand by the applicable Purchaser.

(c) Upon any partial prepayment of the Notes pursuant to Section 8.2 or 8.4, such prepayment shall be paid to the Purchasers pro rata in accordance with the outstanding principal amounts of their respective Notes and applied to reduce the principal amount of installments on the Notes becoming due under this Section 8.1 in reverse order of maturity of such installments.

- 21 -

(d) As provided therein, each Note shall mature and all remaining unpaid principal and accrued interest shall be due and payable on the maturity date thereof (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise). Except as otherwise provided in this Section 8.1 or in the Notes, all payments to be made by the Company hereunder shall be made in United States Dollars (“Dollars”) and in immediately available funds.

The Company will give the Purchasers written notice of each optional prepayment under this Section 8.2 not less than ten (10) days and not more than sixty (60) days prior to the date fixed for such prepayment (unless the Company and the Required Purchasers agree to another time period). Each such notice shall specify (i) such date (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be prepaid on such date, (iii) the principal amount of the Notes to be prepaid (determined in accordance with Section 8.1(c)) and the principal amount of installments on the Notes after such prepayment, and (iv) the interest to be paid on the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount being prepaid.

Section 8.3 Maturity; Surrender, Etc. In the case of each optional prepayment of Notes pursuant to this Article 8, the principal amount of each Note to be prepaid shall mature and become due and payable on the date fixed for such prepayment, together with interest on such principal amount accrued to such date. From and after such date, unless the Company shall fail to pay such principal amount when so due and payable, together with unpaid interest accrued thereon to the date of such prepayment, as aforesaid, interest on such principal amount shall cease to accrue. Any Note paid or prepaid in full shall be surrendered to the Company and cancelled and shall not be reissued, and no Note shall be issued in lieu of any prepaid principal amount of any Note.

Section 8.4 Mandatory Prepayment Events.

The principal amount of the Notes that shall be repaid shall be in the same proportion to the total amount of Notes then outstanding as the proportion of the principal amount of the notes being repaid under the Microsoft NPA to the total amount of notes then outstanding under the Microsoft NPA.

(f) Order of Application. All mandatory prepayments shall be applied first, to the payment of principal of, and accrued interest on, the Senior Notes until paid in full, and second to the payment of principal and accrued interest on the Subordinated Notes.

The Company shall indemnify a Purchaser within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 8.7(a)) payable or paid by such Purchaser or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Purchaser and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.

LanzaJet, Inc.

STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT

Date of Issuance: [__], 2022

Certificate No. W-[__]

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, LanzaJet, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby grants to [__] or its registered assigns (the “Registered Holder”) the right to purchase from the Company [__] shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a price per share of $0.01 (as adjusted from time to time hereunder, the “Exercise Price”). This Warrant is one of several warrants (collectively, the “Warrants”) issued by the Company to certain lenders pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the “Note Purchase Agreement”). Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in Section 3. The amount and kind of securities obtainable pursuant to the rights granted hereunder and the purchase price for such securities are subject to adjustment pursuant to the provisions contained in this Warrant.

This Warrant is subject to the following provisions:

Section 1.         Exercise of Warrant

1A. Exercise Period

The Registered Holder may exercise, in whole or in part (but not as to a fractional share of Common Stock), the purchase rights represented by this Warrant at any time and from time to time after the Date of Issuance to and including the earlier of the third anniversary following (a) the date on which such Registered Holder’s Note Purchase Commitment (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement) has been fully funded or (b) if such Commitment has not been fully funded, the last day of the Availability Period (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement) (the “Exercise Period”).

1B. Exercise Procedure

(i) This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised upon satisfaction of the following conditions (the “Exercise Time”):

(a) the Company has received a completed Exercise Agreement, as described in paragraph 1C, executed by the Registered Holder or by an Affiliate of the Registered Holder exercising all or part of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant (the “Purchaser”);

(b) the Company has received this Warrant, which, in the event of a partial exercise of the purchase rights therein, shall, as contemplated in Section 6, be received by the Company in exchange for a new Warrant representing the unexercised purchase rights hereunder;

(c) the Company has received a joinder, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the Company’s Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement, as amended;

(d) disbursements in respect of the Notes held by such Registered Holder or its affiliate, as applicable, pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement in an amount of $0.0575 per share of Common Stock subject to the applicable Exercise Agreement shall have been funded, provided that no such funded disbursements applied in satisfaction of the condition specified in this Section 1B(i)(d) in connection with such Exercise Agreement shall have been applied to satisfy the condition specified in this Section 1B(i)(d) in connection with any previously delivered Exercise Agreement; and

(e) the Company has received either (1) a check payable or wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Company in an amount equal to the product of the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock being purchased upon such exercise (the “Aggregate Exercise Price”) or (2) the surrender to the Company of debt or equity securities of the Company having a Market Price equal to the Aggregate Exercise Price of the Common Stock being purchased upon such exercise.

(ii) Certificates for shares of Common Stock purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be delivered by the Company to the Purchaser within ten (10) business days after the date of the Exercise Time. Unless this Warrant has expired or all of the purchase rights represented hereby have been exercised, the Company shall prepare a new Warrant, substantially identical hereto, representing the rights formerly represented by this Warrant which have not expired or been exercised and shall, within such five-day period, deliver such new Warrant to the Person designated for delivery in the Exercise Agreement.

(iii) The Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been issued to the Purchaser at the Exercise Time, and the Purchaser shall be deemed for all purposes to have become the record holder of such Common Stock at the Exercise Time.

(iv) The issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Registered Holder or the Purchaser for any issuance tax in respect thereof or other cost incurred by the Company in connection with such exercise and the related issuance of shares of Common Stock. Each share of Common Stock issued upon exercise of this Warrant shall upon payment of the Exercise Price therefor, be duly and validly authorized and issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof.

(v) The Company shall not close its books against the transfer of this Warrant or of any share of Common Stock issued or issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant in any manner that interferes with the timely exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms hereof.

(vi) The Company shall assist and cooperate with any Registered Holder or Purchaser required to make any governmental filings or obtain any governmental approvals prior to or in connection with any exercise of this Warrant (including, without limitation, making any filings required to be made by the Company).

(vii) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if an exercise of any portion of this Warrant is to be made in connection with a registered public offering or the sale of the Company, the exercise of any portion of this Warrant may, at the election of the holder hereof, be conditioned upon the consummation of the public offering or sale of the Company in which case such exercise shall not be deemed to be effective until at or immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction.

(viii) The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock solely for the purpose of issuance upon the exercise of the Warrants, such number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of all outstanding Warrants. All shares of Common Stock which are so issuable shall, when issued, be duly and validly authorized and issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges. The Company shall take all such actions as may be necessary to assure that all such shares of Common Stock may be so issued without violation of any applicable law or governmental regulation or any requirements of any domestic securities exchange upon which shares of Common Stock may be listed (except for official notice of issuance which shall be immediately delivered by the Company upon each such issuance). The Company shall not take any action which would cause the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to be less than the number of such shares required to be reserved hereunder for issuance upon exercise of the Warrants.

(ix) Neither this Warrant nor any certificates evidencing the shares of Common Stock or any other equity securities issuable or deliverable under or in connection with this Warrant shall contain any legend restricting the transfer thereof in any of the following circumstances: (i) while a registration statement covering the sale or resale of the shares of Common Stock is effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”); (ii) following any sale of this Warrant, any of the shares of Common Stock or any other equity securities issued or delivered to the Registered Holder under or in connection herewith pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Act; (iii) if this Warrant, the shares of Common Stock or any other equity securities are eligible for sale under Rule 144(b)(1) promulgated under the Act; or (iv) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission) (collectively, the "Unrestricted Conditions"). If the Unrestricted Conditions are met at the time of the issuance of the shares of Common Stock, the Company shall take all actions reasonably necessary to remove any restricted legends, including the delivery of an opinion of counsel to any transfer agent of the Company. If the Unrestricted Conditions are met at the time of issuance of the shares of Common Stock issuable in exchange of this Warrant, then such shares shall be issued free of all legends.

1C. Exercise Agreement

Upon any exercise of this Warrant, the Exercise Agreement shall be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit I hereto, except that if the shares of Common Stock are not to be issued in the name of the Person in whose name this Warrant is registered, the Exercise Agreement shall also state the name of the Person to whom the certificates for the shares of Common Stock are to be issued (which shall be the Registered Holder or an Affiliate thereof, and no other Person), and if the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued does not include all the shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder, it shall also state the name of the Person to whom a new Warrant for the unexercised portion of the rights hereunder is to be delivered. Such Exercise Agreement shall be dated the actual date of execution thereof.

1D. Fractional Shares

If a fractional share of Common Stock would be issuable upon exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, the Company shall, within ten (10) business days after the date of the Exercise Time, deliver to the Purchaser a check payable to the Purchaser or wire transfer of immediately available funds in lieu of such fractional share in an amount equal to the difference between Market Price of such fractional share as of the date of the Exercise Time and the Exercise Price of such fractional share.

Section 2.         Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares

In order to prevent dilution of the rights granted under this Warrant, the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 2, and the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 2.

2A. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares upon Issuance of

Common Stock

(i) If and whenever on or after the Date of Issuance of this Warrant, the Company issues or sells any share of Common Stock for a consideration per share less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such time, then immediately upon such issue or sale, the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted to the number of shares determined by multiplying the Exercise Price by the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant if no such adjustment were made and dividing the product thereof by the lowest net price per share at which such share of Common Stock has been issued or sold.

(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be no adjustment to the Exercise Price or the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to the granting of (i) equity awards to employees, directors, consultants and vendors of the Company and its Subsidiaries or the exercise thereof that have been approved by the Board of Directors of the Company or (ii) any shares of Common Stock of the Company or other securities that may be issued to LanzaTech, Inc. as described in Section 4.04 of the Investment Agreement.

2B. [Intentionally deleted]

2C. Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock

If the Company at any time subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased. If the Company at any time combines (by reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately decreased.

2D. Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale

Any recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or other transaction, in each case which is effected in such a way that the holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive (either directly or upon subsequent liquidation) stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock is referred to herein as “Organic Change.” Prior to the consummation of any Organic Change, the Company shall make appropriate provision (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Majority Holders) to insure that each of the Registered Holders of the Warrants shall thereafter have the right to acquire and receive, in lieu of or addition to (as the case may be) the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable upon the exercise of such holder's Warrant, such shares of stock, securities or assets as would have been issued or payable in such Organic Change (if the holder had exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such Organic Change) with respect to or in exchange for the number of shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable upon exercise of such holder’s Warrant had such Organic Change not taken place. In any such case, the Company shall make appropriate provision (in form and substance satisfactory to the Majority Holders) with respect to such holders’ rights and interests to insure that the provisions of this Section 2 shall thereafter be applicable to the Warrants (including, in the case of any such consolidation, merger or sale in which the successor entity or purchasing entity is other than the Company, an immediate adjustment of the Exercise Price to the value for the Common Stock reflected by the terms of such consolidation, merger or sale, and a corresponding immediate adjustment in the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon exercise of the Warrants, if the value so reflected is less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such consolidation, merger or sale). The Company shall not effect any such consolidation, merger or sale, unless prior to the consummation thereof, the successor entity (if other than the Company) resulting from consolidation or merger or the entity purchasing such assets assumes by written instrument (in form and substance satisfactory to the Majority Holders), the obligation to deliver to each such holder such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such holder may be entitled to acquire.

As used in this Guaranty: (i) the terms defined in the preamble, preliminary statements and other sections of this Guaranty shall have the respective meanings specified therein, (ii) capitalized terms not defined in this Guaranty shall have the corresponding meanings given to such terms in the Collateral Agency and Intercreditor Agreement, and (iii) Guaranteed Obligations” shall mean, without duplication, the payment of all Project Costs and all other expenses, charges, costs and fees required in connection with the ownership, development, design, procurement, commissioning, start-up, construction and early stage operation of the Project, in each case incurred on or prior to the Commercial Operations Date (as defined in the Shareholder NPA and the Microsoft NPA), in order for the Company to achieve the Commercial Operations Date, to the extent such costs are not paid when due from other sources of funds available to the Company in accordance with the terms of the Shareholder NPA or the Microsoft NPA (but, for the avoidance of doubt, no such Project Costs and other expenses, charges, costs and fees set forth in clause (iii) incurred after the Commercial Operations Date shall constitute Guaranteed Obligations).

(b) Terms Generally. The definitions of terms herein shall apply equally to the singular and plural forms of the terms defined. Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. The words “include,” “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be modified by the phrase “without limitation.” The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall.” Unless the context requires otherwise (i) any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument of other document herein shall be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, supplemented or otherwise modified in accordance with the provisions hereof and thereof; (ii) any reference herein to any person shall be construed to include such person’s successors and permitted assigns; (iii) the words “herein,” “hereof” and “hereunder,” and words of similar import, shall be construed to refer to this Guaranty in its entirety and not to any particular provision of this Guaranty; and (iv) the words “asset” and “property” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect and to refer to any and all tangible and intangible assets and properties. Article and section headings used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Guaranty and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Guaranty.

2. Irrevocable Guaranty.

(a) The Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, to the Guaranteed Party and its successors, permitted transferees and permitted assigns that all monetary Guaranteed Obligations will be promptly paid in full, in United States dollars, when due in accordance herewith, subject to the other provisions of this Guaranty.

(b) Without limiting the foregoing, if for any reason any Guaranteed Obligation has not been paid promptly when due, then in each such instance upon written demand of payment made by the Guaranteed Party (acting at the written direction of the Required Creditors) to the Guarantor, the Guarantor shall pay the same or otherwise cause the same to be paid in accordance herewith. Whether or not legal action is instituted, the Guarantor agrees to reimburse the Guaranteed Party on written demand for all attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements and all other fees, costs and expenses incurred by the Guaranteed Party in enforcing its rights under this Guaranty. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Guarantor shall have no obligation to pay any such costs or expenses if, in any action or proceeding brought by the Guaranteed Party giving rise to a demand for payment of such fees, costs or expenses, it is finally adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Guarantor is not liable to make payment of the applicable Guaranteed Obligations under Section 2.1(a) of this Guaranty.

(c) The Guarantor may fulfill its obligations under this Guaranty in any reasonable manner permitted under the Microsoft NPA or the Shareholder NPA, as applicable, including (i) by making sufficient equity contributions to the Company and causing the Company to pay directly the applicable Guaranteed Obligations with such contributions or (ii) making direct payment of the Guaranteed Obligations to the applicable payee; provided, however, that Guarantor’s selection of the manner it wishes to fulfill its obligations shall in no event delay payment of the Guaranteed Obligations when such amounts are due and owing.

3. No Subrogation. The Guarantor will not exercise any rights that it may acquire by way of subrogation under this Guaranty, for any payment made hereunder, until all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Guaranteed Party to whom such Guaranteed Obligations are payable and shall forthwith be paid to such Guaranteed Party to be credited and applied to such Guaranteed Obligations. If (i) the Guarantor shall make payment to the Guaranteed Party of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations and (ii) all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be indefeasibly paid in full, the Guaranteed Party will, at the Guarantor’s request and expense, promptly execute and deliver to the Guarantor appropriate documents, prepared by Guarantor’s counsel, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to the Guarantor of an interest in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from such payment by the Guarantor.

4. No Effect on Guaranty. The obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not be altered, limited, impaired or otherwise affected by, and Guarantor waives any defense under or based upon:

(a) any rescission of any demand for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any failure by the Guaranteed Party to make any such demand or to collect any payments;

(b) any renewal, extension, modification, amendment, acceleration, compromise, waiver, indulgence, rescission, discharge, surrender or release, in whole or in part, of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other instrument or agreement evidencing, relating to, securing or guaranteeing any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or the liability of any party to any of the foregoing or for any part thereof;

(c) the validity, regularity or enforceability of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any instrument or agreement evidencing, relating to, securing or guaranteeing any of the Guaranteed Obligations at any time or from time to time held by the Guaranteed Party; (d) any sale, transfer, issuance, spin-off, distribution or other disposition of any stock, equity interest or other security of the Guarantor or any other entity;

(e) any act or omission of the Guaranteed Party relating in any way to the Guaranteed Obligations, including any failure to bring an action against any party liable on the Guaranteed Obligations, or any party liable on any guaranty of the Guaranteed Obligations, or to apply any funds of any such party held by the Guaranteed Party;

(f) any other act or omission that may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Guarantor or that may or might otherwise operate as a discharge of the Guarantor as a matter of law or equity;

(g) any default, failure, omission or delay, willful or otherwise, on the part of any person to perform or comply with, or the impossibility or illegality of performance by any such person (other than impossibility or illegality of performance that would apply to the extent that the Guaranteed Obligations were to be performed by Guarantor) of any of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(h) any action or failure to act in any manner referred to in this Guaranty which may deprive the Guarantor of its rights to subrogation against the Guaranteed Party to recover full indemnity for any payments made pursuant to this Guaranty or of the Guarantor’s right to contribution against any other party;

(i) any suit or other action brought by, or any judgment in favor of, any beneficiaries or creditors of any person for any reason whatsoever, including, without limitation, any suit or action in any way attaching or involving any issue, matter or thing in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other agreement (other than a suit or action to which the Guaranteed Party is a party or by which the Guaranteed Party is bound concerning the scope of the Guaranteed Obligations or concerning the provisions of this Guaranty);

(j) any sale, lease or transfer of any or all of the assets of the Guarantor;

(k) the taking of any action by the Guaranteed Party to enforce any Guaranteed Obligations or the agreement under which such Guaranteed Obligation arises against the Guaranteed Party;

(l) demands, diligence, presentment, notices and any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor (other than (i) performance of and/or compliance with the terms of such Guaranteed Obligations by the Guarantor and/or the person whose performance and compliance is being guaranteed and (ii) any demand required under Section 2.1); and

(m) any claim, set-off, counterclaim, defense or other rights that the Guarantor may have at any time and from time to time against the Guaranteed Party.

5. Continuing Guaranty; Termination. This Guaranty shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guaranty of payment when due, and not of collection only, and the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by the Guaranteed Party at any time of any right or remedy against any person which may be or become liable in respect of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations. This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect until all Guaranteed Obligations shall have been satisfied by indefeasible payment in full, in United States dollars. On or after the date that this Guaranty is no longer in full force and effect, upon the written request of the Guarantor, the Guaranteed Party shall promptly confirm in writing that this Guaranty has been terminated.

6. Reinstatement of Guaranty. This Guaranty shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is avoided, rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Guaranteed Party to any guarantor for any reason including as a result of any insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization proceeding with respect to the Guarantor, all as though such payment had not been made.

7. Amendment to Organizational Documents. Until the Discharge Date (as defined in the Microsoft NPA), the Guarantor shall not, without the prior written consent of Microsoft, amend or modify its Organizational Documents (as defined in the Microsoft NPA) in a manner adverse to Microsoft in respect of Microsoft’s right to appoint a board observer to the board of directors of the Guarantor, as set forth in the Organizational Documents of the Guarantor. The agreements in this Section 7 shall survive the termination of this Guaranty pursuant to Section 5.

8. No Consequential Damages. In no event shall the Guarantor be subject to any special, incidental, consequential, indirect, punitive, or exemplary damages.

9. Election of Remedies. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Guaranty, each and every right, power and remedy herein given to the Guaranteed Party, or otherwise existing, shall be cumulative and not exclusive, and be in addition to all other rights, powers and remedies now or hereafter granted or otherwise existing. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Guaranty, each and every right, power and remedy whether specifically herein given or otherwise existing may be exercised, from time to time and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by the Guaranteed Party.

10. Effect of Delay or Omission to Pursue Remedy. No single or partial waiver by the Guaranteed Party of any right, power or remedy, or delay or omission by the Guaranteed Party in the exercise of any right, power or remedy which it may have shall impair any such right, power or remedy or operate as a waiver thereof or of any other right, power or remedy then or thereafter existing. Any waiver given by the Guaranteed Party of any right, power or remedy in any one instance shall only be effective in that specific instance and only for the purpose for which given, and will not be construed as a waiver of any right, power or remedy on any future occasion.

11. Amendment. This Guaranty may not be modified, amended, terminated or revoked, in whole or in part, except by an agreement in writing signed by the Guaranteed Party and the Guarantor. No waiver of any term, covenant or provision of this Guaranty, or consent given hereunder, shall be effective unless given in writing by the Guaranteed Party.

12. Notices. All notices and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been sufficiently given to any party hereto if personally delivered or if sent by facsimile, or by registered or certified mail (return receipt requested), by email (if receipt is confirmed by email) or by recognized courier service, postage or other charges prepaid and addressed as follows:
