Washington Prime Group
Restructuring Term Sheet

This term sheet (this “Term Sheet”) sets forth certain material terms of a proposed restructuring (the “Restructuring”) of Washington Prime Group, L.P. (“WPG LP”) and the other Company Parties listed on Annex A hereto (collectively, the “Company” or the “Debtors”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the DIP Credit Agreement, the New Term Loan Exit Facility Term Sheet, the Backstop Commitment Term Sheet, or the restructuring support agreement to which this Term Sheet will be attached (together with all exhibits and supplements attached thereto, including this Term Sheet, the “RSA”).¹

This Term Sheet does not include a description of all the terms, conditions, and other provisions that are to be contained in the definitive documentation governing the Restructuring, which remain subject to negotiation and completion in accordance with the RSA and applicable bankruptcy law. The documents executed to effectuate the Restructuring will not contain any material terms or conditions that are inconsistent in any material respect with this Term Sheet or the RSA.

This Term Sheet is neither an offer to buy or sell any security nor a solicitation of acceptances of a chapter 11 plan within the meaning of Section 1125 of the Bankruptcy Code. Any such offer or solicitation will comply with all applicable securities laws and provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. Nothing contained in this Term Sheet shall be an admission of fact or liability or, until the occurrence of the Plan Effective Date in the RSA, deemed binding on any of the parties hereto. Nothing herein constitutes an agreement, understanding or commitment to effectuate or implement a restructuring on the terms described herein or on any other terms.

OVERVIEW

Implementation

The Restructuring will be accomplished through the Company’s voluntary cases under Chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code, 11 U.S.C. § § 101–1532, as amended (the “Bankruptcy Code”) (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) commenced in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (the “Bankruptcy Court”) to implement a chapter 11 plan of reorganization described herein and otherwise consistent with the RSA (the “Plan”).

The RSA will be executed by: (a) the Company, (b) Strategic Value Partners, LLC (the “Plan Sponsor”), (c) the holders of at least 66.7% of the aggregate principal amount of the Unsecured Notes, (d) the holders of 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Weberstown Term Loan Facility Claims, and (e) the holders of at least 71.5% of the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving and Term Loan Facilities Claims.

Pursuant to the RSA, and subject to the terms and conditions thereof, the parties thereto have agreed to support the transactions contemplated herein and therein.

¹	Capitalized Terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the RSA.

Each undersigned holder of, or investment advisor, sub-advisor, or manager of discretionary accounts that hold, Unsecured Notes Claims, Weberstown Term Loan Facility Claims, and/or Revolving and Term Loan Facilities Claims (each a “Consenting Stakeholder”) shall be required to execute the RSA with respect to all of its holdings under the following agreements, as applicable (such agreements, the “Existing Debt Agreements”):

a) that certain Amended and Restated Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement, dated as of January 22, 2018 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified on or prior to the date hereof, including by that certain Amendment No. 1, dated August 13, 2020) by and among WPG LP, as borrower, certain Company Parties as guarantors, Bank of America, N.A., as collateral and administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto, the “2018 Credit Agreement” and the credit facility under such agreement, the “2018 Credit Facility”);

b) that certain Term Loan Agreement, dated as of December 10, 2015 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified on or prior to the date hereof, including by that certain Amendment No. 1 to Term Loan Agreement, dated January 22, 2018, and that certain Amendment No. 2 to Term Loan Agreement, dated as of August 13, 2020) by and among WPG LP, as borrower, certain Company Parties as guarantors, GLAS USA LLC and Americas LLC (as successor to PNC Bank, National Association) as collateral and administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto, the “2015 Credit Agreement” (and the credit facility under such agreement, the “2015 Credit Facility”) and together with the 2018 Credit Agreement, the “Revolving and Term Loan Credit Agreements”; the claims in respect of the Revolving and Term Loan Credit Agreements, the “Revolving and Term Loan Facilities Claims”);

c) that certain Indenture, dated as of March 24, 2015 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified prior to the date hereof, the “Base Indenture”), between WPG LP, and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee, registrar, paying agent and transfer agent (the “Trustee”) and the Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of August 4, 2017 (the “Second Supplemental Indenture” (and the notes issued pursuant to the Second Supplemental Indenture, the “Unsecured Notes”) and together with the Base Indenture, the “Unsecured Notes Indenture”; the claims in respect of the Unsecured Notes, the “Unsecured Notes Claims”); and

d) that certain Senior Secured Term Loan Agreement, dated as of June 8, 2016, (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified on or prior to the date hereof), including by that certain First Amendment and Waiver to Senior Secured Term Loan Agreement, dated as of December 23, 2016, that certain Second Amendment and Waiver to Senior Secured Term Loan Agreement, dated as of April 10, 2018, and that certain Third Amendment to Senior Secured Term Loan Agreement, dated as of August 13, 2020) by and among WPG LP and WTM Stockton, LLC as borrowers, GLAS USA LLC and Americas LLC (as successor to Huntington National Bank), as collateral and administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto, the “Weberstown Term Loan Agreement” and the credit facility under such agreement, the “Weberstown Term Loan Facility”; the claims in respect of the Weberstown Term Loan Facility, the “Weberstown Term Loan Facility Claims”).

DIP Facility/Use of Cash Collateral

The “DIP Facility” shall mean a super-priority debtor in possession credit facility in the aggregate principal amount of $100 million, to be provided by the Plan Sponsor and the members of the Ad Hoc Lender Group that elect to participate on a ratable basis based on their respective aggregate principal claims under each of the Existing Debt Agreements, on the terms and conditions set forth in the DIP Credit Agreement attached as Exhibit C to the RSA and the debtor-in-possession financing credit agreement.

The terms of the DIP Facility and any related order approving the DIP Facility, adequate protection, the use of cash collateral or related matters shall be consistent with Exhibit C to the RSA and otherwise consistent with the RSA and this Term Sheet, including the consent rights set forth in the RSA.

New Term Loan Exit Facility

The “New Term Loan Exit Facility” shall consist of a 4-year senior secured term loan facility of take-back debt, in an amount equal to $1,212 million plus, at the election of the Plan Sponsor, all accrued and unpaid default interest (up to 2.0% per annum), if applicable, on the Revolving and Term Loan Facilities Claims and Weberstown Term Loan Claims that is not paid in Cash as of the Effective Date as adequate protection (as provided below), on the terms set forth in the term sheet attached hereto as Exhibit D to the RSA (the “New Term Loan Exit Facility Term Sheet”) and otherwise on terms satisfactory to the Debtors, the Required Consenting Ad Hoc Lenders, and the Plan Sponsor, and to be included in the Plan Supplement.

New Money Equity Rights Offering

The Company will distribute to holders of Unsecured Notes Claims, the Plan subscription rights (the “Equity Rights”) to purchase new common equity in Reorganized WPG² (the “New Common Equity”) for Cash. The Equity Rights will allow the holders thereof, on a record date to be determined, to purchase New Common Equity at a 32.5% discount to Set‑Up Equity Value (as defined below).

The New Common Equity offered in the Equity Rights Offering (as defined below) shall dilute the New Common Equity issued under the Plan on account of any prepetition claims and shall dilute the New Common Equity issued under the Plan on account of the Existing Preferred Equity Interests, and Existing Common Equity Interests (collectively, the “Existing Equity Interests”) solely to the extent provided below. For the avoidance of doubt, the New Common Equity issued in the Equity Rights Offering shall be subject to dilution for the MIP (as defined below).

The offering (the “Equity Rights Offering”) will be sized to raise gross Cash proceeds of $190 million plus the amount required to pay the DIP Facility Claims in full, fund emergence Cash flows, and fund Cash payments to holders of Allowed³ Existing Equity Interests pursuant to the Equity Option (collectively, the “Equity Rights Offering Amount”), in an aggregate amount not to exceed $325 million (such maximum amount, the “Total Backstop Commitment”) to be funded on the Plan Effective Date. The Cash proceeds of the Equity Rights Offering shall be applied by the Company to (i) pay the DIP Facility Claims, (ii) make distributions pursuant to the Plan, (iii) fund working capital, and (iv) fund general corporate purposes.

The Equity Rights Offering shall be offered, implemented, or conducted by the Company pursuant to the terms of the RSA and otherwise on the terms (including procedures for the implementation thereof) set forth in the agreement attached as Exhibit E to the RSA (the “Backstop Commitment Agreement”). Participation in the Equity Rights Offering may be limited by securities laws to Accredited Investors (as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933) that complete a customary accredited investor questionnaire.

The structure, timing and solicitation process for the Equity Rights Offering shall be consistent with the Backstop Commitment Agreement and otherwise satisfy the consent rights set forth in the RSA.

Set-Up Equity Value

The Plan will fix the exercise price for New Common Equity to be offered pursuant to the Equity Rights based on a fixed “Set-Up Equity Value” of $800 million. Although the RSA will include certain agreed conditions to the effectiveness of the Plan, changes in the operating performance of the Company during the Chapter 11 Cases or variance in the amount of net debt outstanding under the Exit Facilities shall not alter the allocation of Set-Up Equity Value in the Plan or the exercise price of the Equity Rights.

The Set-Up Equity Value is intended only as a contractual term for the limited purpose of determining the exercise price of the Equity Rights and is not a valuation. No party to the RSA shall be required to take a position with respect to valuation except as necessary to fulfill their respective obligations under the RSA and to consummate the Plan.

³	“Allowed” means, as to a Claim or an Interest, a Claim or an Interest allowed under the Plan, under the Bankruptcy Code, or by a final order, as applicable.

Backstop Commitments

Each of the Plan Sponsor and its Related Funds (as defined in the Backstop Commitment Agreement) that are party to the Backstop Commitment Agreement (each holder so designated under the Backstop Commitment Agreement, a “Backstop Party”) will subscribe for (a) the portion of New Common Equity corresponding to the Equity Rights allocated to such Backstop Party or its affiliates in the Plan, (b) its share of the Minimum Allocation (defined below), and (c) its “Backstop Commitment Percentage” of the New Common Equity offered in the Equity Rights Offering that is not initially subscribed for in the Equity Rights Offering.

Backstop Compensation

In consideration for the Backstop Parties, or their Related Funds, agreeing to make the Backstop Commitment (as defined in the Backstop Commitment Agreement), 50% of the total Equity Rights Offering will be reserved solely for certain Backstop Parties and allocated as set forth in the Backstop Commitment Schedule (as defined in the Backstop Commitment Agreement) (the “Minimum Allocation”). The Equity Rights for the remaining 50% of the Equity Rights Offering (the “Unsecured Notes Rights”) will be distributed Pro Rata⁴ to holders of Unsecured Notes Claims (including the Backstop Parties and their Related Funds, as applicable).

In further consideration of the Backstop Parties, or their Related Funds, agreeing to make the Backstop Commitment, the Backstop Parties, or their affiliate designees, shall be entitled to a premium in an amount equal to 9% of the Total Backstop Commitment payable to the holders of the Backstop Commitments in New Common Equity at the price per share applicable in the Equity Rights Offering (the “Backstop Equity Premium”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Backstop Equity Premium shall not dilute the New Common Equity issued in the Equity Rights Offering.

The fees payable in the event that (a) the Company consummates an Acceptable Alternative Restructuring Proposal⁵ under the Plan, or (b) the RSA is terminated for any reason, shall be set forth in the Backstop Commitment Agreement.

⁴	“Pro Rata” means the proportion that an Allowed Claim or an Allowed Interest in a particular Class bears to the aggregate amount of Allowed Claims or Allowed Interests in that Class.

⁵

“Acceptable Alternative Restructuring Proposal” means any Alternative Restructuring Proposal that provides for (A) the payment in full in Cash on the Effective Date of (i) Administrative Claims, (ii) DIP Claims, (iii) 2015 Credit Facility Claims, (iv) 2018 Credit Facility Claims, (v) Weberstown Term Loan Facility Claims, (vi) Unsecured Notes Claims (in each case, including, postpetition interest at the default contract rate, where applicable), (vii) General Unsecured Claims, and (viii) the Backstop Base Premium, and (B) additional value in an amount not less than the value of either Cash or New Common Equity provided to Holders of Existing Equity Interests under the Equitization Restructuring, as compared to Cash or non-Cash consideration provided to Holders of Existing Equity Interests under such Acceptable Alternative Restructuring Proposal; provided that the Company shall have the right to assess the value of New Common Equity or non-Cash consideration, as applicable, in its sole discretion; provided, however, that if the Company so elects to assess the value of New Common Equity or non-Cash consideration, it shall do so with respect to each of the Alternative Restructuring Proposal and the Equitization Restructuring.

Go-Shop

The Go-Shop provisions are set forth in Section 8.02 of the RSA.

New Common Equity

On the Plan Effective Date, Reorganized WPG will issue the New Common Equity: (a) to holders of Unsecured Notes Claims on account of their Claims as provided in the Plan, (b) to holders of Unsecured Notes Claims and Backstop Parties in connection with the Equity Rights Offering, (c) to Backstop Parties as payment of the Backstop Equity Premium, and (d) to holders of Existing Equity Interests on account of their Allowed Interests as provided in the Plan.

Equity Option⁶

Eligible Holders of Allowed Existing Preferred Equity Interests and Allowed Existing Common Equity Interests shall be permitted to elect to receive their recovery in New Common Equity in lieu of receiving their Pro Rata share of Cash from their respective Equity Cash Pool,⁷ provided that in order to be eligible to elect the Equity Option, any such Holder must have Interests in an amount greater than either (i) [●] Existing Preferred Equity Interests or (ii) [●] Existing Common Equity Interests as of the Voting Deadline; provided, further, that if less than [●]% of such Holders elect the Equity Option, then, at the Company’s election (subject to the consent of the Plan Sponsor), all Eligible Holders of Allowed Existing Equity Interests shall receive their Pro Rata share of Cash from their respective Equity Cash Pool.

Any New Common Equity distributed to Allowed Existing Preferred Equity Interests, or Allowed Existing Common Equity Interests pursuant to the Equity Option shall ratably reduce the aggregate amount of Cash available for distribution to such Class’ respective Equity Cash Pool.

Treatment of Existing Preferred Equity Interests

If the Company effectuates the Equitization Restructuring:

(i) if the Class of Existing Preferred Equity Interests votes in favor of the Plan, Holders of Allowed Existing Preferred Equity Interests shall receive their Pro Rata share of the Preferred Equity Cash Pool;¹⁴ provided that eligible Holders of Allowed Existing Preferred Equity Interests may elect to receive their Pro Rata share of the Preferred Equity Equity Pool,¹⁵ subject to dilution by the MIP, in lieu of their Pro Rata share of the Preferred Equity Cash Pool (the “Preferred Equity Option”); or

(ii) if the Class of Existing Preferred Equity Interests votes to reject the Plan, Holders of Existing Preferred Equity Interests shall not receive any distribution on account of such Interests, which will be canceled, released, and extinguished as of the Effective Date, and will be of no further force or effect.

¹³

“General Unsecured Claim” means any Claim that is not (a) secured by a lien on collateral to the extent of the value of such collateral, as determined in accordance with section 506(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or (b) subject to a valid right of setoff pursuant to section 553 of the Bankruptcy Code (an “Unsecured Claim”) against a Debtor other than the Unsecured Notes Claims.

¹⁴

“Preferred Equity Cash Pool” means the maximum aggregate amount of Cash to be distributed to holders of Allowed Existing Preferred Equity Interests who do not affirmatively elect to participate in the Preferred Equity Option, which amount shall be $40,000,000; provided that if the Class of Existing Common Equity Holders votes to accept the Plan, the amount shall be $20,000,000.

The Loans, or any portion thereof, may be either a Base Rate Loan or a Eurodollar Rate Loan, as determined by the Borrower in any Notice of Borrowing, any Notice of Conversion/Continuation or as otherwise provided in this Agreement. The Commitments of each Lender shall be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the amount of Loans made by such Lender on each Funding Date. The Borrower may not reborrow the Loans following any repayment thereof.

(b) Notice of Borrowing. When the Borrower desires to borrow under this Section 2.1, it shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a written Notice of Borrowing, signed by it (i) no later than 12:00 noon (New York time) at least three (3) Business Days in advance of the proposed Funding Date, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans and (ii) no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) at least three (3) Business Days in advance of the proposed Funding Date, in the case of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans; provided that the Borrowers may condition each Borrowing in such notice on the entry of the Interim DIP Financing Order or the Final DIP Financing Order, as applicable; provided that the Administrative Agent will, subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, fund the amounts of the applicable requested funding that have been deposited with it by the Lenders within one (1) Business Day of the entry of the Initial DIP Financing Order or Final DIP Financing Order, as applicable.

In lieu of delivering such a Notice of Borrowing, the Borrower may give the Administrative Agent electronic, written notice of any proposed Borrowing by the time required under this Section 2.1(b), if the Borrower confirms such notice by delivery of the Notice of Borrowing to the Administrative Agent by facsimile transmission promptly, but in no event later than 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the same day. Any Notice of Borrowing (or electronic, written notice in lieu thereof) given pursuant to this Section 2.1(b) shall be irrevocable.

Each Lender shall deposit an amount equal to its applicable Pro Rata Share of the Borrowing requested by the Borrower with the Administrative Agent at its office in Chicago, Illinois, in immediately available funds in Dollars not later than 12:00 noon (New York time) on the proposed Funding Date for such Loans. Subject to the fulfillment of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 6.2 and upon receipt of all requested funds, the Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds of such amounts received by it available to the Borrower at the Administrative Agent’s office in Chicago, Illinois on such Funding Date (or on the date received if later than such Funding Date) and shall disburse such proceeds in accordance with the Borrower’s disbursement instructions set forth in the applicable Notice of Borrowing. The failure of any Lender to deposit the amount described above with the Administrative Agent on the applicable Funding Date shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder to make its Loan on such Funding Date. In the event the conditions precedent set forth in Section 6.2 are not fulfilled as of the proposed Funding Date for any Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall promptly return, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, the amount deposited by each Lender to such Lender.

In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the Loan. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing and the interest rate applicable to such Borrowing shall be as requested by the Borrower in the applicable Notice of Borrowing. This Section 2.1(c)(ii) does not relieve any Lender of its obligation to make its Loan on any applicable Funding Date.

2.4 Effect of Benchmark Transition Event Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace Base Eurodollar Rate with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrower so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Requisite Lenders; provided that, with respect to any proposed amendment containing any SOFR-Based Rate, the Lenders shall be entitled to object only to the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment contained therein. Any such amendment with respect to an Early Opt-in Election will become effective on the date that Lenders comprising the Requisite Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Requisite Lenders accept such amendment. No replacement of Base Eurodollar Rate with a Benchmark Replacement will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date.

(a) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent, with the written consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.

(b) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date and Benchmark Transition Start Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes and (iv) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or Lenders, in each case, with the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), pursuant to this Section 2.4, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.4.

(c) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for Eurodollar Rate Loan of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans.

On the Closing Date and from time to time thereafter, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the names of the employees and agents authorized to request Loans and to request a conversion/continuation of any Loan and containing a specimen signature of each such employee or agent. The employees and agents so authorized shall also be authorized to act for the Borrower in respect of all other matters relating to the Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely conclusively on such employee’s or agent’s authority to request such Loan or such conversion/continuation until the Administrative Agent receive written notice to the contrary. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to verify the authenticity of the signature appearing on any written Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation or any other document, and, with respect to an oral request for such a Loan or such conversion/continuation, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to verify the identity of any person representing himself or herself as one of the employees or agents authorized to make such request or otherwise to act on behalf of the Borrower. None of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders shall incur any liability to the Borrower or any other Person in acting upon any electronic, written or facsimile notice referred to above which the Administrative Agent believes to have been given by a person duly authorized to act on behalf of the Borrower and the Borrower hereby indemnifies and holds harmless the Administrative Agent and each other Lender from any loss or expense the Administrative Agent or the Lenders might incur in acting in good faith as provided in this Section 2.5.

All payments shall be in Dollars. Payments actually received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, or any of them, shall be paid to them by the Administrative Agent promptly after receipt thereof, in immediately available funds.

(b) Apportionment of Payments.

(i) Subject to the provisions of Section 4.2(b)(iv), all payments of principal and interest in respect of outstanding Loans, all payments of fees and all other payments in respect of any other Obligations, shall be allocated among such of the Lenders as are entitled thereto, in proportion to their respective applicable Pro Rata Shares or otherwise as provided herein as of the date of this Agreement. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.2(b)(ii), all such payments and any other amounts received by the Administrative Agent from or for the benefit of the Borrower shall be applied in the following order:

(A) to pay principal of and interest on any portion of the Loans which the Administrative Agent may have advanced on behalf of any Lender other than itself for which the Administrative Agent has not then been reimbursed by such Lender or the Borrower,

(B) to pay all obligations (including any fees, expense reimbursements or indemnities) due and payable to the Administrative Agent,

(D) as otherwise set forth in the DIP Financing Orders.

Unless otherwise designated by the Borrower, all principal payments in respect of Loans shall be applied first, to repay outstanding Base Rate Loans, and then to repay outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans, with those Eurodollar Rate Loans which have earlier expiring Interest Periods being repaid prior to those which have later expiring Interest Periods.

(ii) Subject to the DIP Financing Orders and the Carve Out, after the occurrence of an Event of Default and while the same is continuing, the Administrative Agent shall apply all payments in respect of any Obligations and any amounts received as a result of the exercise of remedies pursuant to 11.2 and 14.5, in the following order:

(A) first, to pay principal of and interest on any portion of the Loans which the Administrative Agent may have advanced on behalf of any Lender other than itself for which the Administrative Agent has not then been reimbursed by such Lender or the Borrower;

(B) second, to pay all Obligations (including any fees, expense reimbursements or indemnities) then due to the Administrative Agent;

(D) fourth, to pay interest due in respect of Loans;

(E) fifth, to the ratable payment or prepayment of principal outstanding on Loans; and

(F) sixth, to the ratable payment of all other Obligations.

The order of priority set forth in this Section 4.2(b)(ii) and the related provisions of this Agreement are set forth solely to determine the rights and priorities of the Administrative Agent, the other Lenders and other Holders as among themselves. The order of priority set forth in clauses (A) and (B) of this Section 4.2(b)(ii) may be changed only with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

(iii) Subject to Section 4.2(b)(iv), the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each other Lender at its primary address set forth on the appropriate signature page hereof or the signature page to the Assignment and Acceptance by which it became a Lender, or at such other address as a Lender or other Holder may request in writing, such funds as such Person may be entitled to receive, subject to the provisions of Article XII; provided that the Administrative Agent shall under no circumstances be bound to inquire into or determine the validity, scope or priority of any interest or entitlement of any Holder and may suspend all payments or seek appropriate relief (including, without limitation, instructions from the Requisite Lenders or an action in the nature of interpleader) in the event of any doubt or dispute as to any apportionment or distribution contemplated hereby.

(iv) In the event that any Lender fails to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Loan requested by the Borrower which such Lender is obligated to fund under the terms of this Agreement (the funded portion of such Loan being hereinafter referred to as a “Non Pro Rata Loan”), until the earlier of such Defaulting Lender’s cure of such failure and the termination of the Commitments, the proceeds of all amounts thereafter repaid to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower and otherwise required to be applied to such Defaulting Lender’s share of all other Obligations pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be advanced to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Defaulting Lender to cure, in full or in part, such failure by such Lender, but shall nevertheless be deemed to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender in satisfaction of such other Obligations. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary:

(A) the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.2(b)(iv) shall apply only with respect to the proceeds of payments of Obligations and shall not affect the conversion or continuation of Loans pursuant to Section 5.1(c);

(B) a Lender shall be deemed to have cured its failure to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Loan at such time as an amount equal to such Lender’s original Pro Rata Share of the requested principal portion of such Loan is fully funded to the Borrower, whether made by such Lender itself or by operation of the terms of this Section 4.2(b)(iv), and whether or not the Non Pro Rata Loan with respect thereto has been repaid, converted or continued;

(C) amounts advanced to the Borrower to cure, in full or in part, any such Lender’s failure to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Loan (“Cure Loans”) shall bear interest at the Base Rate in effect from time to time, and for all other purposes of this Agreement shall be treated as if they were Base Rate Loans; and

(D) regardless of whether or not an Event of Default has occurred or is continuing, and notwithstanding the instructions of the Borrower as to its desired application, all repayments of principal which, in accordance with the other terms of this Section 4.2, would be applied to the outstanding Base Rate Loans shall be applied first, ratably to all Base Rate Loans constituting Non Pro Rata Loans, second, ratably to Base Rate Loans other than those constituting Non Pro Rata Loans or Cure Loans and, third, ratably to Base Rate Loans constituting Cure Loans.

(v) Payments on Non-Business Days. Whenever any payment to be made by the Borrower hereunder or under the Notes is stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the payment shall instead be due on the next succeeding Business Day (or, as set forth in Section 5.2(b)(iii), the next preceding Business Day).

4.3 Promise to Repay; Evidence of Indebtedness.

(a) Promise to Repay. The Borrower hereby promises to pay when due the principal amount of each Loan which is made to it, and further agrees to pay all unpaid interest accrued thereon, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Notes. To the extent a Lender requests to receive any such promissory note, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to each Lender on the Closing Date, a promissory note, in form and substance acceptable to such Lender, evidencing the Loans and thereafter shall execute and deliver such other promissory notes as are necessary to evidence the Loans owing to the Lenders after giving effect to any assignment thereof pursuant to Section 14.1, all in form and substance acceptable to the applicable Lenders and the parties to such assignment (all such promissory notes and all amendments thereto, replacements thereof and substitutions therefor being collectively referred to as the “Notes”; and “Note” means any one of the Notes).

(b) Loan Account. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts (a “Loan Account”) evidencing the Indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan owing to such Lender from time to time, including the amount of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder and under the Notes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure by any Lender to maintain a Loan Account shall in no way affect the Borrower’s obligations hereunder, including, without limitation, the obligation to repay the Obligations.

(c) Control Account. The Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 14.1(c) shall include a control account, shall be recorded (i) the date and amount of each Borrowing made hereunder, the type of Loan comprising such Borrowing and any Eurodollar Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the effective date and amount of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and the parties thereto, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder or under the Notes and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower hereunder and each Lender’s share thereof.

(d) Entries Binding. The entries made in the Register and each Loan Account shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(e) No Recourse to Limited Partners or General Partner. It is expressly understood and agreed that nothing herein or in any other Loan Document shall be construed as creating any liability on any Limited Partner, any General Partner, or any partner, member, manager, officer, shareholder or director of any Limited Partner or any General Partner, to pay any of the Obligations other than (x) liability arising from or in connection with (i) fraud or (ii) the misappropriation or misapplication of proceeds of the Loans (in which case such liability shall extend to the Person(s) committing such fraud, misappropriation or misapplication, but not to any other Person described above) or (y) pursuant to the Guaranty; but nothing contained in this Section 4.3(e) shall be construed to prevent the exercise of any remedy allowed to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders by law or by the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

ARTICLE V

INTEREST AND FEES

5.1 Interest on the Loans and other Obligations.

(a) Rate of Interest. All Loans and the outstanding principal balance of all other Obligations shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date such Loans are made and such other Obligations are due and payable until paid in full, except as otherwise provided in Section 5.1(d), as follows:

(i) If a Base Rate Loan or such other Obligation, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (A) the Base Rate, as in effect from time to time as interest accrues, plus (B) the then Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans; and

(ii) If a Eurodollar Rate Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (A) the Eurodollar Rate determined for the applicable Eurodollar Interest Period, plus (B) the then Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Rate Loans.

The applicable basis for determining the rate of interest on the Loans shall be selected by the Borrower at the time a written Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation is delivered by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that the Borrower may not select the Eurodollar Rate as the applicable basis for determining the rate of interest on such a Loan if at the time of such selection an Event of Default or a Potential Event of Default would occur or has occurred and is continuing and further provided that, from and after the occurrence of an Event of Default or a Potential Event of Default, each Eurodollar Rate Loan then outstanding may, at the Administrative Agent’s option, convert to a Base Rate Loan. If on any day any Loan is outstanding with respect to which notice has not been timely delivered to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement specifying the basis for determining the rate of interest on that day, then for that day interest on that Loan shall be determined by reference to the Base Rate.

(b) Interest Payments.

(i) Interest accrued on each Loan shall be calculated from the last day of each calendar month and shall be payable in arrears (A) on the first Business Day of each calendar month, commencing on the first such day following the making of such Loan, and (B) if not theretofore paid in full, on the maturity date (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of such Loan.

(ii) Interest accrued on the principal balance of all other Obligations shall be calculated from the last day of each calendar month and shall be payable in arrears (A) on the first Business Day of each calendar month, commencing on the first such day following the incurrence of such Obligation, (B) upon repayment thereof in full or in part, and (C) if not theretofore paid in full, at the time such other Obligation becomes due and payable (whether by acceleration or otherwise).

(i) The Borrower shall have the option (A) to convert at any time all or any part of outstanding Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans; (B) to convert all or any part of outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans having Eurodollar Interest Periods which expire on the same date to Base Rate Loans, on such expiration date; and (C) to continue all or any part of outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans having Eurodollar Interest Periods which expire on the same date as Eurodollar Rate Loans, and the succeeding Eurodollar Interest Period of such continued Loans shall commence on such expiration date; provided, however, no such outstanding Loan may be continued as, or be converted into, a Eurodollar Rate Loan (i) if the continuation of, or the conversion into, would violate any of the provisions of Section 5.2 or (ii) if an Event of Default or a Potential Event of Default would occur or has occurred and is continuing. Any conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans under this Section 5.1(c) shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and in integral multiples of $100,000 in excess of that amount, except in the case of a conversion into or a continuation of an entire Borrowing of Non Pro Rata Loans.

(ii) To convert or continue a Loan under Section 5.1(c)(i), the Borrower shall deliver a written Notice of Conversion/Continuation to the Administrative Agent no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) at least three (3) Business Days in advance of the proposed conversion/continuation date. A Notice of Conversion/Continuation shall specify (A) the proposed conversion/continuation date (which shall be a Business Day), (B) the principal amount of the Loan to be converted/continued, (C) whether such Loan shall be converted and/or continued, and (D) in the case of a conversion to, or continuation of, a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the requested Eurodollar Interest Period. In lieu of delivering a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, the Borrower may give the Administrative Agent electronic or written notice of any proposed conversion/continuation by the time required under this Section 5.1(c)(ii), if the Borrower confirms such notice by delivery of the Notice of Conversion/Continuation to the Administrative Agent by facsimile transmission promptly, but in no event later than 3:00 p.m. (New York time) three (3) Business Days prior. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation under this Section 5.1(c)(ii) (or electronic or written notice in lieu thereof), the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender by facsimile transmission, or other similar form of transmission, of the proposed conversion/continuation. Any Notice of Conversion/Continuation for conversion to, or continuation of, a Loan (or electronic or written notice in lieu thereof) given pursuant to this Section 5.1(c)(ii) shall be irrevocable, and the Borrower shall be bound to convert or continue in accordance therewith. In the event no Notice of Conversion/Continuation is delivered as and when specified in this Section 5.1(c)(ii) with respect to outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans, upon the expiration of the Interest Period applicable thereto, such Loans shall automatically be converted to a Base Rate Loan.

(d) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the rates of interest specified in Section 5.1(a) or elsewhere in this Agreement, effective immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, and for as long thereafter as such Event of Default shall be continuing, the principal balance of all Loans and other Obligations shall bear interest at a rate equal to the sum of (A) the Base Rate, as in effect from time to time as interest accrues, plus (B) the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans, plus (C) two percent (2.0%) per annum.

(e) Computation of Interest. Interest on all Obligations shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which interest accrues and a year of 360 days (or 365/366 days in the case of interest computed by reference to clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of the Base Rate). In computing interest on any Loan, the date of the making of the Loan or the first day of a Eurodollar Interest Period, as the case may be, shall be included and the date of payment or the expiration date of a Eurodollar Interest Period, as the case may be, shall be excluded; provided, however, if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one (1) day’s interest shall be paid on such Loan.

(f) Eurodollar Rate Information. Upon the reasonable request of the Borrower from time to time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly provide to the Borrower such information with respect to the applicable Eurodollar Rate as may be so requested.

5.2 Special Provisions Governing Eurodollar Rate Loans.

(a) Amount of Eurodollar Rate Loans. Each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be in a minimum principal amount of $1,500,000.

(b) Determination of Eurodollar Interest Period. By giving notice as set forth in Section 2.1(b) (with respect to a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans) or Section 5.1(c) (with respect to a conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans), the Borrower shall have the option, subject to the other provisions of this Section 5.2, to select an interest period (each, an “Interest Period”) to apply to the Loans described in such notice, subject to the following provisions:

(i) Subject to availability, the Borrower may only select, as to a particular Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans, an Interest Period (each, a “Eurodollar Interest Period”) of one, two, three or six months in duration (or, with the prior written consent of the Administrative agent and if available to all Lenders, twelve months);

(ii) In the case of immediately successive Eurodollar Interest Periods applicable to a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans, each successive Eurodollar Interest Period shall commence on the day on which the next preceding Eurodollar Interest Period expires;

(iii) If any Eurodollar Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day, such Eurodollar Interest Period shall be extended to expire on the next succeeding Business Day if the next succeeding Business Day occurs in the same calendar month, and if there will be no succeeding Business Day in such calendar month, the Eurodollar Interest Period shall expire on the immediately preceding Business Day;

(iv) The Borrower may not select an Interest Period as to any Loan if such Interest Period terminates later than the Maturity Date;

(v) The Borrower may not select an Interest Period with respect to any portion of principal of a Loan which extends beyond a date on which the Borrower is required to make a scheduled payment of such portion of principal; and

(vi) There shall be no more than five (5) Interest Periods in effect at any one time with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans.

(c) Determination of Eurodollar Interest Rate. As soon as practicable on the second Business Day prior to the first day of each Eurodollar Interest Period (the “Eurodollar Interest Rate Determination Date”), the Requisite Lenders shall determine (pursuant to the procedures set forth in the definition of “Eurodollar Rate”) the interest rate which shall apply to the Eurodollar Rate Loans for which an interest rate is then being determined for the applicable Eurodollar Interest Period and shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and to each Lender. The Administrative Agent’s determination shall be presumed to be correct, absent manifest error, and shall be binding upon the Borrower and each Lender.

(d) Alternate Rate of Interest.

(i) If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans:

(A) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Base Eurodollar Rate for a Loan or for the applicable Interest Period; or

(B) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Requisite Lenders that the Base Eurodollar Rate for a Loan in the applicable currency or for the applicable Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period,

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone promptly followed in writing or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (1) any Notice of Conversion/Continuation that requests the conversion of any Eurodollar Rate Loans to, or continuation of any Eurodollar Rate Loans for the applicable Interest Period, as the case may be, shall be ineffective and (2) such Borrowing shall be made as a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), or the Borrower or Requisite Lenders notify the Administrative Agent (with, in the case of the Requisite Lenders, a copy to the Borrower) that the Borrower or Requisite Lenders (as applicable) have determined, that:

(iii) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Base Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period, because the LIBOR Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary; or

(A) the administrator of the LIBOR Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the Base Eurodollar Rate or the LIBOR Screen Rate shall no longer be made available, or used for determining the interest rate of loans (such specific date, the “Scheduled Unavailability Date”), or

(B) syndicated loans currently being executed, or that include language similar to that contained in this Section, are being executed or amended (as applicable) to incorporate or adopt a new benchmark interest rate to replace the Base Eurodollar Rate,

then, reasonably promptly after such determination by the Administrative Agent or receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice , as applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the Base Eurodollar Rate with an alternate benchmark rate (including any mathematical or other adjustments to the benchmark (if any) incorporated therein), giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar Dollar denominated syndicated credit facilities for such alternative benchmarks (any such proposed rate, a “LIBOR Successor Rate”), together with any proposed LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes (as defined below) and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on the fifth Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrower provided that all Lenders deliver written notice to the Administrative Agent that they accept such amendment prior to such time.

If no LIBOR Successor Rate has been determined and the circumstances under clause (i) above exist or the Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred (as applicable), the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended, (to the extent of the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or Interest Periods), and (y) the Daily LIBOR Rate component shall no longer be utilized in determining the Base Rate. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans (to the extent of the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Committed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans (subject to the foregoing clause (y)) in the amount specified therein.

Notwithstanding anything else herein, any definition of LIBOR Successor Rate shall provide that in no event shall such LIBOR Successor Rate be less than 0.75% for purposes of this Agreement.

As used above:

“LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes” means, with respect to any proposed LIBOR Successor Rate, any conforming changes to the definition of Base Rate, Interest Period, timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of interest and other administrative matters as may be appropriate, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, to reflect the adoption of such LIBOR Successor Rate and to permit the administration thereof by the Administrative Agent in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if the Administrative Agent determines that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible or that no market practice for the administration of such LIBOR Successor Rate exists, in such other manner of administration as the Administrative Agent determines in consultation with the Borrower).

(e) Illegality.

(i) If at any time any Lender determines (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties) that the making, converting, maintaining or continuation of any Eurodollar Rate Loan has become unlawful or impermissible by compliance by that Lender with any law, governmental rule, regulation or order of any Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law and whether or not failure to comply therewith would be unlawful or would result in costs or penalties), then, and in any such event, such Lender may give notice of that determination, in writing, to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit the notice to each other Lender.

(ii) When notice is given by a Lender under Section 5.2(e)(i), (A) the Borrower’s right to request from such Lender and such Lender’s obligation, if any, to make Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be immediately suspended, and such Lender shall make a Base Rate Loan as part of any requested Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans and (B) if the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans are then outstanding, the Borrower shall immediately, or if permitted by applicable law, no later than the date permitted thereby, upon at least one (1) Business Day’s prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and the affected Lender, convert each such Loan into a Base Rate Loan.

(iii) If at any time after a Lender gives written notice under Section 5.2(e)(i) such Lender determines that it may lawfully make Eurodollar Rate Loans, such Lender shall promptly give notice of that determination, in writing, to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit the notice to each other Lender. The Borrower’s right to request, and such Lender’s obligation, if any, to make Eurodollar Rate Loans shall thereupon be restored.

(iv) A Lender may at its option make any Loan (a “Credit Extension”) to the Borrower by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender (any “Lending Office”) to make such Credit Extension; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Credit Extension in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall take all reasonable actions requested by the Lender to mitigate or avoid such illegality.

(f) Compensation. In addition to all amounts required to be paid by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.1 and Article XIII, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender, upon demand, for all losses, expenses to third parties and liabilities (including, without limitation, any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund or maintain such Lender’s Eurodollar Rate Loans to the Borrower but excluding any loss of Applicable Margin on the relevant Loans, any losses or expenses incurred as the result of such Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction) and any administrative fees incurred in effecting such liquidation or reemployment) which that Lender may sustain (i) if for any reason a Borrowing, conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation given by the Borrower or in an electronic, written request by it for borrowing or conversion/ continuation or a successive Eurodollar Interest Period does not commence after notice therefor is given pursuant to Section 5.1(c), including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 5.2(d), (ii) if for any reason any Eurodollar Rate Loan is prepaid on a date which is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period, (iii) as a consequence of a required conversion of a Eurodollar Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan as a result of any of the events indicated in Section 5.2(d), or (iv) as a consequence of any failure by the Borrower to repay a Eurodollar Rate Loan when required by the terms of this Agreement. The Lender making demand for such compensation shall deliver to the Borrower concurrently with such demand a written statement in reasonable detail as to such losses, expenses and liabilities, and this statement shall be conclusive as to the amount of compensation due to that Lender, absent manifest error.

(g) Booking of Eurodollar Rate Loans. Any Lender may make, carry or transfer Eurodollar Rate Loans at, to, or for the account of, its Eurodollar Lending Office or Eurodollar Affiliate or its other offices or Affiliates. No Lender shall be entitled, however, to receive any greater amount under Section 4.2 or 5.2(f) or Article XIII as a result of the transfer of any such Eurodollar Rate Loan to any office (other than such Eurodollar Lending Office) or any Affiliate (other than such Eurodollar Affiliate) than such Lender would have been entitled to receive immediately prior thereto, unless (i) the transfer occurred at a time when circumstances giving rise to the claim for such greater amount did not exist and (ii) such claim would have arisen even if such transfer had not occurred.

(h) Affiliates Not Obligated. No Eurodollar Affiliate or other Affiliate of any Lender shall be deemed a party to this Agreement or shall have any liability or obligation under this Agreement

(i) Adjusted Eurodollar Rate. Any failure by any Lender to take into account the Eurodollar Reserve Percentage when calculating interest due on Eurodollar Rate Loans shall not constitute, whether by course of dealing or otherwise, a waiver by such Lender of its right to collect such amount for any future period.

5.3 Fees.

(a) The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, the fees set forth in the Administrative Agent Fee Letter at the times and on the terms specified therein (the “Administrative Agent Fees”) and (ii) to the Administrative Agent on the Closing Date, for the ratable benefit of each Lender in accordance with such Lender’s Pro Rata Share, an upfront fee in an amount equal to 1.50% of the aggregate amount of the Total Commitments (i.e. $100,000,000), which upfront fee may be paid in the form of original issue discount by deducting such fee from the proceeds of the Loans (if any) made on the Closing Date.

(b) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of each Lender an undrawn fee calculated on a daily basis at a rate per annum equal to 0.50% on the daily unused Commitment of such Lender (assuming all Commitments are available to be used) commencing on the Closing Date, accruing on a daily basis, and due and payable in arrears on the first Business Day of each calendar month (commencing with [__], 2021) thereafter and on the Maturity Date, in each case, with respect all amounts accrued to such date (the “Undrawn Fee”).

(c) All Fees will be paid on the dates due and payable, in immediately available funds (unless netted or otherwise expressly set forth in this Section 5.3), to the Administrative Agent for distribution, if and as appropriate, among the Lenders. Once paid, none of the Fees will be refundable under any circumstances.

(v) remit as provided in Section 4.2(b) all cash proceeds, cash equivalents and other distributions of or in respect of Collateral received by it from the collection, foreclosure or enforcement of its interest in the Collateral under the Collateral Documents or any of its other interests, rights, powers or remedies;

(e) Each party to this Agreement acknowledges and consents to the undertaking of the Administrative Agent set forth in herein and agrees to each of the other provisions of this Agreement applicable to the Administrative Agent.

12.3 Right to Request Instructions. (a) The Administrative Agent may at any time request instructions or clarifications from the Lenders with respect to any actions or approvals which by the terms of any of the Loan Documents the Administrative Agent is permitted or required to take or to grant, and the Administrative Agent shall be absolutely entitled to refrain from taking any action or to withhold any approval and shall not be under any liability whatsoever to any Person for refraining from any action or withholding any approval under this Agreement until it shall have received such instructions from those Lenders from whom the Administrative Agent is required to obtain such instructions for the pertinent matter in accordance with the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall have no liability for acting or refraining from acting under the Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Requisite Lenders or, where required by the express terms of this Agreement, a greater proportion of the Lenders. In the absence of written instructions from the applicable Lenders, the Administrative Agent may act (or refrain from acting) as it considers to be in the best interests of the Lenders.

(b) Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, whenever reference is made in this Agreement, or any other Loan Document, to any discretionary action by, consent, designation, specification, requirement or approval of, notice, request or other communication from, or other direction given or action to be undertaken or to be (or not to be) suffered or omitted by the Administrative Agent or to any election, decision, opinion, acceptance, use of judgment, expression of satisfaction or other exercise of discretion, rights or remedies to be made (or not to be made) by the Administrative Agent, such provision shall refer to the Administrative Agent exercising each of the foregoing at the instructions of the Requisite Lenders (or, where expressly required by the terms of this Agreement, a greater or different proportion of Lenders).

12.4 Reliance. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to:

(a) rely upon any written notices, statements, certificates, orders or other documents or any telephone message believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person;

(b) rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon;

(c) rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon;

(d) with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents and its duties hereunder or thereunder, rely upon advice of legal counsel (including counsel for the Borrower), independent public 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;

(e) conclusively assume that the grantors and Guarantors have complied with all of their obligations under this Agreement and any other Loan Document unless advised in writing by any Secured Party thereunder to the contrary specifically setting forth the alleged violation;

(f) conclusively rely on any certificate of an authorized officer of the Borrower; and

(g) request that the Requisite Lenders deliver a certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to the Loan Documents.

12.5 Indemnification. To the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed and indemnified by a Loan Party, the Lenders will promptly reimburse and promptly indemnify the Agent Parties solely in their capacity as such (and not in their capacity as a Lender) and its directors, officers, employees, agents and Affiliates for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, and reasonable costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against it in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or Collateral Documents or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents or Collateral Documents including in connection with the Administrative Agent’s administration of the Collateral, in proportion to each Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Facility determined as of the time when such indemnification is sought, unless and to the extent that any such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, and reasonable costs, expenses or disbursements shall arise as a result of the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a non-appealable final judgment. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Secured Party shall reimburse the Administrative Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees, costs and expenses) incurred by it in connection with the preparation, execution, administration or enforcement of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, the Loan Documents or Collateral Documents including in connection with the Administrative Agent’s administration of the Collateral, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not promptly reimbursed (but, in any event, within three (3) Business Days following demand for payment) for such fees, costs and expenses by the Borrower. The Administrative Agent shall not be otherwise required to advance its own funds for any such indemnification obligations it may have to any third party under any of the Collateral Documents that are otherwise reimbursable to the Administrative Agent or covered by an indemnity benefiting the Administrative Agent under the Collateral Documents. The Administrative Agent agrees to refund to the Lenders any of the foregoing amounts paid to it by the Lenders which amounts are subsequently recovered by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower or any other Person on behalf of the Borrower less the costs incurred in obtaining such recovery. The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 12.5 shall survive the payment in full of the Loans and all other Obligations and the termination of this Agreement and the Collateral Documents and the removal or resignation of the Administrative Agent.

12.6 Agents Individually. With respect to their respective Pro Rata Share of the Facility hereunder, if any, and the Loans made by them, if any, the Administrative Agent shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and are subject to the same obligations and liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein for any other Lender. The terms “Lenders” or “Requisite Lenders” or any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender or as one of the Requisite Lenders. The Administrative Agent and each of its respective Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries as if it was not acting as the Administrative Agent pursuant hereto.

12.7 Successor Agents.

(a) Resignation and Removal. The Administrative Agent may resign from the performance of all its functions and duties hereunder (including as Administrative Agent) at any time by giving at least thirty (30) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Borrower and the other Lenders, unless applicable law requires a shorter notice period or that there be no notice period, in which instance such applicable law shall control (the “Resignation Effective Date”). The Administrative Agent may be removed at the direction of the Requisite Lenders, in the event the Administrative Agent shall commit gross negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of its duties hereunder as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment. Such resignation or removal shall take effect upon the acceptance by a successor Administrative Agent of appointment pursuant to this Section 12.7 or in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

(b) Appointment by Requisite Lenders. Upon any such resignation or removal becoming effective, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent, subject to approval by the Borrower provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, selected from among the Lenders.

(c) Appointment by Retiring Agent. If a successor Administrative Agent shall not have been appointed within the thirty (30) Business Day or shorter period provided in paragraph (a) of this Section 12.7, the retiring Administrative Agent shall then appoint a successor Administrative Agent who shall serve as Administrative Agent until such time, if any, as the Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided above.

(d) Rights of the Successor and Retiring Agents. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Administrative Agent (other than as provided in Section 13.1(h) and other then any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retired or removed Administrative Agent), and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation or any removed Administrative Agent’s removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article XII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent under this Agreement and, after any resignation or removal, for as long as the Administrative Agent continues to act in such capacity hereunder or under the Loan Documents, including holding collateral or taking action to transfer the agency to a successor.

12.8 Relations Among the Lenders. Each Lender agrees that it will not (x) take any individual legal action, nor institute any actions or proceedings, against the Borrower hereunder with respect to any of the Obligations without the prior written consent of the Requisite Lenders, or (y) except in accordance with Section 11.2(a), accelerate or otherwise enforce its portion of the Obligations or terminate its Commitment.

12.9 Sub-Agents. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

12.10 Independent Credit Decisions. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that the extensions of credit made hereunder are commercial loans and not investments in a business enterprise or securities. Each Lender further represents that it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans in the ordinary course of its business and has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of the Loan Parties’ financial advisors and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement as a Lender, and to make, acquire or hold Loans hereunder. Each Lender shall, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of the Loan Parties’ financial advisors and based on such documents and information (which may contain material, non-public information within the meaning of the United States securities laws concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates) as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder and in deciding whether or to the extent to which it will continue as a lender or assign or otherwise transfer its rights, interests and obligations hereunder.

12.11 Certain ERISA Matters. (a) Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and its respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower, that at least one of the following is and will be true:

(iv) such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Lender.

(b) In addition, unless either (1) sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender or (2) a Lender has not provided another representation, warranty and covenant as provided in sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding clause (a), such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and its respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, that none of the Administrative Agent or any of its respective Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related to hereto or thereto).

(c) The Administrative Agent hereby informs the Lenders that each such Person is not undertaking to provide impartial investment advice, or to give advice in a fiduciary capacity, in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and that such Person has a financial interest in the transactions contemplated hereby in that such Person or an Affiliate thereof (i) may receive interest or other payments with respect to the Loans and this Agreement, (ii) may recognize a gain if it extended the Loans for an amount less than the amount being paid for an interest in the Loans by such Lender or (iii) may receive fees or other payments in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, the Loan Documents or otherwise, including structuring fees, commitment fees, arrangement fees, upfront fees, underwriting fees, ticking fees, agency fees, administrative agent or collateral agent fees, fronting fees, deal-away or alternate transaction fees, amendment fees, processing fees, term out premiums, banker’s acceptance fees, breakage or other early termination fees or fees similar to the foregoing.

12.12 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.

In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Borrower or any of the other Loan Parties, including the Chapter 11 Cases, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Section 5.3 , Section 14.2 and Section 14.3) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Section 5.3 , Section 14.2 and Section 14.3.

12.13 Credit Bidding. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding. The Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Requisite Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the Obligations (including by accepting some or all of the Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the Obligations pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar laws in any other jurisdictions to which a Loan Party is subject, or (b) at any other sale, foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any applicable law. In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the Obligations owed to the Secured Parties shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid by the Administrative Agent at the direction of the Requisite Lenders on a ratable basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a ratable basis that shall vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount used in allocating the contingent interests) for the asset or assets so purchased (or for the equity interests or debt instruments of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are issued in connection with such purchase). In connection with any such bid, (i) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles and to assign any successful credit bid to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, (ii) each of the Secured Parties’ ratable interests in the Obligations which were credit bid shall be deemed without any further action under this Agreement to be assigned to such vehicle or vehicles for the purpose of closing such sale, (iii) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to adopt documents providing for the governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (provided that any actions by the Administrative Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, including any disposition of the assets or equity interests thereof, shall be governed, directly or indirectly, by, and the governing documents shall provide for, control by the vote of the Requisite Lenders or their permitted assignees under the terms of this Agreement or the governing documents of the applicable acquisition vehicle or vehicles, as the case may be, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on actions by the Requisite Lenders contained in Section 14.7 of this Agreement), (iv) the Administrative Agent on behalf of such acquisition vehicle or vehicles shall be authorized to issue to each of the Secured Parties, ratably on account of the relevant Obligations which were credit bid, interests, whether as equity, partnership interests, limited partnership interests or membership interests, in any such acquisition vehicle and/or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle, all without the need for any of the Secured Parties or any acquisition vehicle to take any further action, and (v) to the extent that Obligations that are assigned to an acquisition vehicle are not used to acquire Collateral for any reason (as a result of another bid being higher or better, because the amount of Obligations assigned to the acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of Obligations credit bid by the acquisition vehicle or otherwise), such Obligations shall automatically be reassigned to the Secured Parties pro rata with their original interest in such Obligations and the equity interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of such Obligations shall automatically be cancelled, without the need for any of the Secured Parties or any acquisition vehicle to take any further action. Notwithstanding that the ratable portion of the Obligations of each Secured Party are deemed assigned to the acquisition vehicle or vehicles as set forth in clause (ii) above, each Secured Party shall execute such documents and provide such information regarding the Secured Party (and/or any designee of the Secured Party which will receive interests in or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection with the formation of any acquisition vehicle, the formulation or submission of any credit bid or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such credit bid.

The Loan Parties agree that in connection with any sale of any or all of the Debtors’ assets under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, a Chapter 11 plan, or any equivalent thereof under any other law, the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Requisite Lenders, shall have the right to credit bid pursuant to Section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code any portion, up to the full amount, of all obligations granted under this Agreement.

12.14 Powers of the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent is irrevocably authorized and empowered to enter into and perform its obligations and protect, perfect, exercise and enforce its interest, rights, powers and remedies under the Collateral Documents and applicable law and in equity and to act as set forth in this Article XII or as requested in any lawful directions given to it from time to time in respect of any matter pursuant to a direction in writing delivered to the Administrative Agent by or on behalf of the Requisite Lenders.

12.15 Exculpation Provisions. Notwithstanding anything herein and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, none of the Agent Parties shall:

(i) be liable for any action or step taken or not taken by any of them or for any mistake in act or law under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by the final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction);

(ii) be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss of normal functions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services;

(iii) have any fiduciary duties or contractual obligations of any kind or nature under any other Loan Document, but shall be entitled to all protections provided to the Agent Parties therein;

(iv) be liable for any indirect, special, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever, including, but not limited to, lost profits, even if such loss or damage was foreseeable or it has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action;

(v) have any duty to ascertain or inquire as to or monitor the performance or observance of any of the terms of the Loan Documents by any other Person; and

(vi) not be deemed not to have knowledge of any Event of Default under any Obligations unless and until written notice describing such Event of Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Secured Parties or the Borrower.

12.16 Limitations on Duty of Administrative Agent in Respect of Collateral. Notwithstanding anything herein:

(a) None of the Agent Parties shall have any duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income thereon or as to preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords similar collateral and shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral, by reason of the act or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency or other agent or bailee.

(b) No Agent Party shall be responsible for any unsuitability, inadequacy, expiration or unfitness of any security interest created hereunder or pursuant to any other security documents pertaining to this matter nor shall it be obligated to make any investigation or inquiry into, and shall be entitled to assume, the adequacy and fitness of any security interest created hereunder or pursuant to any other security document pertaining to this matter.

(c) Neither the Administrative Agent, any other Secured Party nor any of their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Loan Party or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties hereunder are solely to protect the Administrative Agent’s and the other Secured Parties’ interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to exercise any such powers. The Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their Affiliates, officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Loan Party for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in the final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(d) The Administrative Agent will not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens granted in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder, except to the extent such action or omission constitutes gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Administrative Agent as determined in the final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, for the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title of any Loan Party to the Collateral or any defect or failure (regardless of whether such defect or failure was known to the Administrative Agent or might have been discovered upon examination or inquiry and whether capable of remedy or not), for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens granted to the Administrative Agent upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral. The Administrative Agent hereby disclaims any representation or warranty to the Secured Parties concerning the perfection of the Liens granted hereunder or in the value of any of the Collateral.

(e) the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible in any manner for the validity, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or the Loan Documents or any Collateral delivered, or for the value or collectability of any Obligations or other instrument, if any, so delivered, or for any representations made or obligations assumed by any party other than the Administrative Agent.

(f) For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall require the Administrative Agent to file financing statements or continuation statements or any real property or mortgage-related filing or recordation, or be responsible for perfecting or maintaining the security interests purported to be created as described herein (except for the safe custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document).

12.17 No Liability for Clean Up of Hazardous Substances. In the event that the Administrative Agent is required to acquire title to an asset for any reason, or take any managerial action of any kind in regard thereto, in order to carry out any fiduciary or trust obligation for the benefit of another, which in the Administrative Agent's sole discretion may cause the Administrative Agent or any Agent Party to be considered an "owner or operator" under any Environmental Health or Safety Requirements of Law or otherwise cause any Agent Party to incur, or to be exposed to, any Liabilities and Costs or any other liability under any other federal, state or local law, the Administrative Agent reserves the right, instead of taking such action, either to resign as Administrative Agent or to arrange for the transfer of the title or control of the asset to a court-appointed receiver. The Agent Parties will not be liable to any Person for any Liabilities and Costs relating to or arising from environmental, health or safety matters (including the violation of any Environmental, Health or Safety Requirements of Law or any environmental claims or contribution actions under any federal, state or local law, rule or regulation by reason of the Agent Party’s actions and conduct as authorized, empowered and directed hereunder or relating to any kind of Release or threatened Release of any Contaminants (except to the extent such liability is caused by or results from illegal acts, fraud, bad faith, gross negligence, willful misconduct or the breach of this Agreement by the Administrative Agent). The Administrative Agent reserves the right to conduct an environmental audit prior to foreclosing on any real estate Collateral or mortgage Collateral. The Administrative Agent reserves the right to forebear from foreclosing in its own name if to do so may expose it to undue risk.

12.18 Erroneous Payment.

(a) If the Administrative Agent notifies a Lender, Secured Party or any Person (other than a Loan Party) who has received funds on behalf of a Lender or Secured Party such Lender (any such Lender, Secured Party or other recipient (other than a Loan Party), a “Payment Recipient”) that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding clause (b)) that any funds received by such Payment Recipient from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Lender, Secured Party or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrative Agent and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and such Lender or Secured Party shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(b) Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Lender or Secured Party, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender or Secured Party, hereby further agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates), or (z) that such Lender or Secured Party, or other such recipient, otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) in each case:

(i)

(A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error shall be presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Administrative Agent to the contrary) or (B) an error has been made (in the case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and

(ii)

such Lender or Secured Party shall (and shall cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge of such error) notify the Administrative Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 12.18(b).

(c) Each Lender or Secured Party hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender or Secured Party under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender or Secured Party from any source, against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under immediately preceding clause (a) or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement.

(d) In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Administrative Agent for any reason, after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent in accordance with immediately preceding clause (a), from any Lender that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (and/or from any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its respective behalf) (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), upon the Administrative Agent’s notice to such Lender at any time, (i) such Lender shall be deemed to have assigned its Loans (but not its Commitments) of the relevant class with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment Impacted Class”) in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Loans (but not Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Class, the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by the Administrative Agent in such instance), and is hereby (together with the Borrower) deemed to execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption (or, to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an approved electronic platform as to which the Administrative Agent and such parties are participants) with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and such Lender shall deliver any Notes evidencing such Loans to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, (ii) the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed to acquire the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (iii) upon such deemed acquisition, the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender shall cease to be a Lender hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and its applicable Commitments which shall survive as to such assigning Lender and (iv) the Administrative Agent may reflect in the Register its ownership interest in the Loans subject to the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. The Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, sell any Loans acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender shall be reduced by the net proceeds of the sale of such Loan (or portion thereof), and the Administrative Agent shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against such Lender (and/or against any recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf). For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment will reduce the Commitments of any Lender and such Commitments shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In addition, each party hereto agrees that, except to the extent that the Administrative Agent has sold a Loan (or portion thereof) acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent may be equitably subrogated, the Administrative Agent shall be contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of the applicable Lender or Secured Party under the Loan Documents with respect to each Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (the “Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights”).

(e) The parties hereto agree that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrower or any other Loan Party, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower or any other Loan Party for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.

(f) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine

(g) Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 12.18 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.

ARTICLE XIII

TAXES; YIELD PROTECTION

13.1 Taxes.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable withholding agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a withholding agent, then the applicable withholding agent 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 Borrower 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 13.1) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for, Other Taxes.

(c) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 13.1, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(d) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, 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) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient 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. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 14.1(e) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).

(f) Status of Lenders. (a) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 13.1(f)(i)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(i) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Person,

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. Federal backup withholding tax;

(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(1) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, an executed IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(2) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) an executed IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E; or

(4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, an executed IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-2 or Exhibit G-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), any other executed form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. Federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(g) Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(h) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 13.1 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 13.1), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 13.1 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes net of any Tax refunds) incurred by such indemnified party with respect to such indemnity payments and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). 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.

(i) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 13.1 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

(j) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 13.1, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

13.2 Increased Capital. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity ratios or requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company (if any) to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company would have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), and (ii) the amount of such capital or liquidity is increased by or based upon the making or maintenance by any Lender of its Loans or other advances made hereunder or the existence of any Lender’s obligation to make Loans, then, in any such case, upon written demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent) from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. The Borrower shall not be required to pay such additional amounts unless such amounts are the result of requirements imposed generally on lenders similar to such Lender and not the result of some specific reserve or similar requirement imposed on such Lender as a result of such Lender’s special circumstances. Such demand shall be accompanied by a statement as to the amount of such compensation and include a brief summary of the basis for such demand. Such statement shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such statement within 10 days after receipt thereof. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. This Section 13.2 shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the repayment of the Obligations for a period of 180 days.

13.3 Changes; Legal Restrictions. If any Change in Law shall:

(a) subject a Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office or Eurodollar Affiliate) or the London interbank market to any condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) of any kind which such Lender reasonably determines to be applicable to Commitments of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Loans; or

(b) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its Loans, Commitments, or other Obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;

(c) impose, modify, or hold applicable, in the determination of a Lender, any reserve (other than reserves taken into account in calculating the Eurodollar Rate), special deposit, liquidity, compulsory loan, FDIC insurance or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances or loans by, commitments made, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, a Lender or any Applicable Lending Office or Eurodollar Affiliate of that Lender;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to that Lender of making, converting, continuing, renewing or maintaining the Loans or its Commitment or to reduce any amount receivable thereunder; then, in any such case, upon written demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall immediately pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender, such amount or amounts as may be necessary to compensate such Lender or its Eurodollar Affiliate for any such additional cost incurred or reduced amount received. Such demand shall be accompanied by a statement as to the amount of such compensation and include a brief summary of the basis for such demand. Such statement shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. This Section 13.3 shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the repayment of the Obligations for a period of 180 days.

13.4 [Reserved]

13.5 No Duplication. For the avoidance of doubt, no amount payable by the Borrower to a Recipient pursuant to one of Section 13.1, Section 13.2 or Section 13.3 shall also be payable to the same Recipient pursuant to another of such Sections.

14.3 Indemnity. The Borrower further agrees (a) to defend, protect, indemnify, and hold harmless each of the Lender Parties (including, without limitation, those retained in connection with the satisfaction or attempted satisfaction of any of the conditions set forth in Article VI) (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses (other than loss of profits), damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, reasonable expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (excluding any Taxes and including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of the Lender Advisors, and to the extent reasonably necessary, one local counsel and one special counsel for each of the Administrative Agent, SVP and the Ad Hoc Group of Lenders, in each case in their capacity as Indemnitees, in each relevant material jurisdiction or area of expertise, as applicable (and, solely in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, one additional counsel as necessary to such Indemnitees above that are actually affected by such conflict taken as a whole in each relevant material jurisdiction and area of expertise) in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding, whether or not such Indemnitees shall be designated a party thereto), imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against such Indemnitees in any manner relating to or arising out of (i) this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the Collateral Documents, including in connection with the Administrative Agent’s administration of the Collateral, the Chapter 11 Cases, or any act, event or transaction related or attendant thereto, the making of the Loans hereunder, the management of such Loans, the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loans hereunder, or any of the other transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, or (ii) any Liabilities and Costs relating to violation by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of any Environmental, Health or Safety Requirements of Law, the past, present or future operations of the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries, or, the past, present or future environmental, health or safety condition of any respective Property of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, the presence of asbestos-containing materials at any respective Property of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or the Release or threatened Release of any Contaminant (collectively, the “Indemnified Matters”); provided, however, the Borrower shall not have any obligation to an Indemnitee hereunder with respect to Indemnified Matters caused by or resulting from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnitee, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a non-appealable final judgment; and (b) not to assert any claim against any of the Indemnitees, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect consequential or punitive damages arising out of, or in any way in connection with, the Commitments, the Obligations, or the other matters governed by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or the Collateral Documents. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, the Borrower shall contribute the maximum portion which it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law, to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Matters incurred by the Indemnitees. No Indemnitee referred to in this Section 14.3 shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, unless the receipt of such information or materials by the unintended recipient resulted from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnitee, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a non-appealable final judgment.

14.4 Change in Accounting Principles. If any change in the accounting principles used in the preparation of the most recent financial statements referred to in 8.1 or 8.2 are hereafter required or permitted by the rules, regulations, pronouncements and opinions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board or the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (or successors thereto or agencies with similar functions) and are adopted by any General Partner or the Borrower, as applicable, with the agreement of its independent certified public accountants and such changes result in a change in the method of calculation of any of the covenants, standards or terms found in Article X, the parties hereto agree to enter into negotiations in order to amend such provisions so as to equitably reflect such changes with the desired result that the criteria for evaluating compliance with such covenants, standards and terms by the Borrower shall be the same after such changes as if such changes had not been made; provided, however, no change in GAAP that would affect the method of calculation of any of the covenants, standards or terms shall be given effect in such calculations until such provisions are amended, in a manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to so reflect such change in accounting principles.

103

14.5 Setoff. In addition to any Liens granted under the Loan Documents and any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code but subject to the DIP Financing Orders (including the Carve Out), upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender and any Affiliate of any Lender is hereby authorized by the Borrower and the other Loan Parties at any time or from time to time, without notice to any Person (any such notice being hereby expressly waived) to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including, but not limited to, indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured (but not including trust accounts)) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender or any of its Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against and on account of the Obligations of the Borrower to such Lender or any of its Affiliates, including, but not limited to, all Loans and all claims of any nature or description arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, irrespective of whether or not (i) such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder or (ii) the Administrative Agent, at the request or with the consent of the Requisite Lenders, shall have declared the principal of and interest on the Loans and other amounts due hereunder to be due and payable as permitted by Article XI and even though such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured. Each Lender agrees that it shall not, without the express consent of the Requisite Lenders, and that it shall, to the extent it is lawfully entitled to do so, upon the request of the Requisite Lenders, exercise its setoff rights hereunder against any accounts of the Borrower now or hereafter maintained with such Lender or any Affiliate.

14.6 Ratable Sharing. The Lenders agree among themselves that (i) with respect to all amounts received by them which are applicable to the payment of the Obligations (excluding the amounts described in Section 5.2(f)) and Article XIII) equitable adjustment will be made so that, in effect, all such amounts will be shared among them ratably in accordance with their applicable Pro Rata Shares, whether received by voluntary payment, by the exercise of the right of setoff or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross-action or by the enforcement of any or all of the Obligations (excluding the amounts described in Section 5.2(f) and Article XIII), (ii) if any of them shall by voluntary payment or by the exercise of any right of counterclaim, setoff, banker’s lien or otherwise, receive payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of the Obligations held by it, which is greater than the amount which such Lender is entitled to receive hereunder, the Lender receiving such excess payment shall purchase, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation (which it shall be deemed to have done simultaneously upon the receipt of such payment) in such Obligations owed to the others so that all such recoveries with respect to such Obligations shall be applied ratably in accordance with their applicable Pro Rata Shares; provided, however, that if all or part of such excess payment received by the purchasing party is thereafter recovered from it, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to such party to the extent necessary to adjust for such recovery, but without interest except to the extent the purchasing party is required to pay interest in connection with such recovery. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 14.6 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including, subject to Section 14.5, the right of setoff) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

14.7 Amendments and Waivers.

(a) General Provisions. Unless otherwise provided for or required in this Agreement, no amendment or modification of any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall be effective without the written agreement of the Requisite Lenders (which the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to grant or withhold in their sole discretion) and the Borrower and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that the Borrower’s agreement shall not be required for any amendment or modification of 12.1 through 12.8. No termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom, shall be effective without the written acknowledgement of the Administrative Agent or without the written concurrence of the Requisite Lenders, which the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to grant or withhold in their sole discretion. All amendments, waivers and consents not specifically reserved to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in Section 14.7(b), 14.7(c), and in other provisions of this Agreement shall require only the approval of the Requisite Lenders and the acknowledgement of the Administrative Agent. Any waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No notice to or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

104

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that the Borrower shall have requested, in writing, that any Lender agree to an amendment, modification, waiver or consent with respect to any particular provision or provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and such Lender shall have failed to state, in writing, that it either agrees or disagrees (in full or in part) with all such requests (in the case of its statement of agreement, subject to satisfactory documentation and such other conditions it may specify) within twenty (20) days after such Lender receives such request, then, the Administrative Agent shall deliver a second request, in writing, to any such Lender(s), which second request shall include a legend, in capital letters, stating “FAILURE TO RESPOND, IN WRITING, TO THIS REQUEST WITHIN TEN (10) DAYS AFTER RECEIPT MAY RESULT IN THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT CONSENTING OR DENYING CONSENT TO SUCH REQUEST ON YOUR BEHALF”.

In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other Person or entity for damages of any kind, including, without limitation, direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Borrower’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of communications through an Electronic System. “Communications” means, collectively, any notice, demand, communication, information, document or other material provided by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated therein which is distributed by the Administrative Agent or any Lender by means of electronic communications pursuant to this Section, including through an Electronic System.

All rights and remedies existing under the Loan Documents are cumulative to and not exclusive of any rights or remedies otherwise available.

14.11 Marshalling; Payments Set Aside. None of the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of the Borrower or any other party or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that the Borrower makes a payment or payments to the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any such Person exercises its rights of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, then to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, right and remedies therefor, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

The Company and each Backstop Party is referred to herein, individually, as a “Party” and, collectively, as the “Parties”. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the RSA (as defined below) or the Restructuring Term Sheet (as defined below), as applicable.

The Debtors will file voluntary petitions for relief (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code, 11 U.S.C. §§ 101, et seq. (the “Bankruptcy Code”), in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (together with any court with jurisdiction over the Chapter 11 Cases, the “Bankruptcy Court”) (the date of such filings being referred to herein as the “Petition Date”) and will seek confirmation of the Plan;

WHEREAS, subject to the Bankruptcy Court’s entry of an order confirming the Plan (the “Confirmation Order”), consummation of the Plan, and the other conditions specified in Section 10 and Section 11 hereof, prior to or on the effective date of the Plan (the “Plan Effective Date”), the Reorganized Company (as defined below) will offer and sell New Common Equity (as defined in the RSA) issued pursuant to a Rights Offering (the “Rights Offering”) and this Agreement to holders of Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims (as defined in the RSA) (the “Notes Claims”) at an aggregate purchase price equal to the sum of (i) $190 million plus (ii) the amount required to pay the DIP Claims (as defined in the RSA) in cash in full plus (iii) the amount required to fund emergence cash flows plus (iv) the amount required to fund cash payments to Allowed Existing Equity Interests, which in the aggregate shall not exceed $325 million (such maximum amount, the “Total Backstop Commitment”), to be funded on the Plan Effective Date.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, and the representations, warranties and covenants set forth herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the Company and the Backstop Parties agree as follows:

Section 1. The Rights Offering. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Rights Offering will be conducted in accordance with the rights offering procedures attached as Exhibit A, hereto (the “Rights Offering Procedures”) and as follows:

(a) On and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, including entry by the Bankruptcy Court of an order approving this Agreement (the “Backstop Approval Order”), the Company, on behalf of Reorganized Company, shall conduct the Rights Offering pursuant to and in accordance with the Plan, the Rights Offering Procedures and the RSA. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to conduct the Rights Offering in reliance upon the exemption from registration under the Securities Act provided in Section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code; provided that the offer and sale of the Backstop Shares and any other equity interests that cannot be made in reliance upon such exemption will be made in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act or another available exemption from registration under the Securities Act.

(b) Prior to the Subscription Tender Deadline (as defined in the Rights Offering Procedures), Subscription Rights in the Rights Offering are not separately transferable or detachable from the Notes Claims and may only be transferred together with the applicable Notes Claims. Any Notes Claim traded after Subscription Tender Deadline will not be traded with the Subscription Rights, which shall have lapsed.

(c) No later than the [tenth (10th)] Business Day following the Subscription Form and Payment Deadline (as defined in the Rights Offering Procedures), the Company, or the Subscription Agent (as defined in the Rights Offering Procedures) on the Company’s behalf, shall deliver by email a written notice (the “Funding Notice”) to each Backstop Party or their counsel of: (i) the number of Rights Offering Shares elected to be purchased by all participants in the Rights Offering and the aggregate purchase price therefor; (ii) the aggregate number of Unsubscribed Shares, if any, and the aggregate purchase price therefor; (iii) based upon such Backstop Party's Backstop Commitment Percentage, the aggregate number of Unsubscribed Shares to be issued and sold by the Reorganized Company to such Backstop Party as Backstop Shares and the aggregate purchase price therefor; (iv) in accordance with the Backstop Commitment Schedule, the aggregate number of Minimum Allocation Shares to be issued and sold by the Reorganized Company to such Backstop Party and the aggregate purchase price therefor; (v) if applicable, the number of Rights Offering Shares such Backstop Party is subscribed for in the Rights Offering and for which such Backstop Party had not yet paid to the Subscription Agent and the aggregate purchase price therefor; (the sum of the aggregate purchase prices set forth in clauses (iii), (iv) and (v), “Funding Amount”); (vi) wire instructions for a segregated account (the “Funding Account”) established with an escrow agent (reasonably acceptable to the Required Backstop Parties) or the Subscription Agent to which such Backstop Party shall deliver the Funding Amount; and (vii) the estimated deadline for delivery of the Funding Amount which shall be no earlier than five (5) Business Days before the expected Plan Effective Date (the “Funding Deadline”). Contemporaneously with delivery of the Funding Notice, the Company shall deliver a certification by the Subscription Agent regarding the number of Backstop Shares, or, if such certification is not available, such written backup to the determination of the Backstop Shares as the Backstop Parties may reasonably request.

(g) Each of the Parties intends that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Expense Reimbursement and, as applicable, the Backstop Equity Premium or the Backstop Break Payment shall be treated as a “put premium” paid to the Backstop Parties (the “Intended Tax Treatment”). Each party shall file all tax returns consistent with, and take no position inconsistent with such treatment (whether in audits, tax returns or otherwise) unless required to do so pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). From and after the date of this Agreement, none of the parties shall, nor shall they permit any of their subsidiaries or Affiliates to, knowingly take any action, cause any action to be taken or omit to take any action, which action or omission could cause the transactions to fail to qualify for, or fail to be reported in a manner consistent with, the Intended Tax Treatment.

A transfer of a Backstop Commitment to one or more Permitted Transferees shall also transfer a ratable portion of the Transferring Backstop Party’s pro rata share of the Minimum Allocation, Backstop Equity Premium and Backstop Break Payment. Each Transferring Backstop Party shall provide notice to the Company and the nontransferring Backstop Parties of such transfer (the “Backstop Transfer Notice”), and the Company shall maintain an updated copy of the Backstop Commitment Schedule to reflect such transfers as occur from time to time.

(b) Prior to transferring a Backstop Commitment pursuant to the foregoing Section 3(a), the Transferring Backstop Party shall first provide written notice of such transfer of all or any portion of its Backstop Commitment and Minimum Allocation Shares to a person (other than a Backstop Party or Related Fund (as defined below) as of such date) (“Offering Notice”), to the Company and other Backstop Parties party to this Agreement as of such date (the “Non‑Transferring Backstop Parties”), which Offering Notice shall state the amount of the Backstop Commitment proposed to be transferred by the Transferring Backstop Party (the “Offered Backstop Commitment”), the consideration offered by the transferee (the “New Backstop Party”) and the other material terms and conditions of the transfer, including a description of any non-cash consideration in sufficient detail to permit the valuation thereof. The Offering Notice shall constitute the Transferring Backstop Party’s offer to transfer the Offered Backstop Commitment to the Non-Transferring Backstop Parties, which offer shall be irrevocable for ten (10) Business Days (the “ROFO Notice Period”). Upon receipt of the Offering Notice, each Non-Transferring Backstop Party may elect during the ROFO Notice Period, in its sole discretion, to assume the Offered Backstop Commitment on the same terms and for the same consideration as set forth in the Offering Notice by delivering a written notice (an “Offer Acceptance Notice”) to the Transferring Backstop Party, the other Non-Transferring Backstop Parties and the Company stating that it offers to assume such portion of the Offered Backstop Commitment on the terms specified in the Offering Notice. Any Offer Acceptance Notice shall be binding upon delivery and irrevocable by the applicable Non-Transferring Backstop Party. If more than one Non-Transferring Backstop Party (each, a “Purchasing Backstop Party”) timely delivers an Offer Acceptance Notice and the aggregate amount of Backstop Commitments to be assumed pursuant to such Offer Acceptance Notices is greater than the amount of the Offered Backstop Commitment, each Purchasing Backstop Party shall be allocated a portion of the Offered Backstop Commitment based upon its applicable Backstop Commitment Percentage as of the date of the Offering Notice as compared to the Backstop Commitment Percentages of all of the Purchasing Backstop Parties, unless otherwise agreed to by the Non-Transferring Backstop Parties. To the extent any portion of the Offered Backstop Commitment is not assumed by the Non-Transferring Backstop Parties, the Transferring Backstop Party shall have a thirty (30) calendar day period in which to agree to a transfer of such portion to a Permitted Transferee on substantially the same (or more favorable as to the Transferring Backstop Party) terms and conditions as were set forth in the Offering Notice. If the Transferring Backstop Party does not agree to such a transfer in accordance with the foregoing time limitations, then the right of the Transferring Backstop Party to agree to such transfer pursuant to this paragraph shall terminate and the Transferring Backstop Party shall again comply with the procedures set forth in this paragraph with respect to any proposed transfer of its Backstop Commitments to a New Backstop Party.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Backstop Party may assign its Backstop Commitment to any fund, account (including any separately managed accounts) or investment vehicle that is controlled, managed, advised or sub-advised by such Backstop Party, an Affiliate thereof or the same investment manager, advisor or subadvisor as the Backstop Party or an Affiliate of such investment manager, advisor or subadvisor (other than any portfolio company of such Backstop Party) (each, a “Related Fund”) without submitting an Offering Notice, in which case (x) such assigning Backstop Party shall notify the Company and the non-transferring Backstop Parties of such assignment and (y) such Related Fund transferee shall agree in writing to be bound by the representations, warranties, covenants and obligations of such transferring Backstop Party under this Agreement and the RSA and shall make the representations set forth in Section 6 hereof as of the date of such transfer as if it was a Backstop Party. Any such Related Fund shall submit the requisite documentation required by the Rights Offering Procedures, including any subscription form (the “Requisite Documentation”) to the Company. For purposes of this Agreement, (i) “Affiliate” shall mean with respect to any specified Person (as defined below), any other Person that, at the time of determination, directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, Controls (as defined below), is Controlled by or is under common Control with such specified Person and (ii) “Control” shall mean, as to any Person, the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise. The terms “Controlled by,” “Controlled” and “under common Control with” shall have correlative meanings.

(d) Any transfer of Backstop Commitments or Minimum Allocations, if applicable, including such transfers to a Related Fund, shall relieve the Transferring Backstop Party from all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to such transferred Backstop Commitment and Minimum Allocation if (i) the transfer is to an existing Backstop Party; or (ii) the Company and the Required Backstop Parties provide prior written consent of such transfer, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, following receipt from such Permitted Transferee of evidence that such transferee is reasonably capable of fulfilling such obligations, including such financial information as may reasonably be requested by the Company or the Required Backstop Parties demonstrating the ability of such Permitted Transferee to fund the entire amount of its existing Backstop Commitment and Minimum Allocation inclusive of the amount of the Backstop Commitment transferred to such Permitted Transferee. Otherwise, the Transferring Backstop Party shall retain its obligations under this Agreement with respect to such transferred Backstop Commitment and Minimum Allocations.

(e) Any transferee pursuant to, and in accordance with, clauses (b) or (c) above shall be deemed a Backstop Party for all purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the transfer of any Notes Claims or other Claims by any Backstop Party shall not have any effect on a Backstop Party’s Backstop Commitment Percentage or Minimum Allocation.

(f) Furthermore, each Backstop Party shall have the right to designate by written notice to the Company no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Plan Effective Date that some or all of its Right Offering Shares and Backstop Shares be issued in the name of, and delivered to, one or more of its Affiliates or Related Funds upon receipt by the Company of payment therefor in accordance with the terms hereof, which notice of designation shall (i) be addressed to the Company and signed by such Backstop Party and each such affiliate or Related Fund, (ii) specify the number of Backstop Party Shares to be delivered to or issued in the name of such affiliate or Related Fund and (iii) contain a confirmation by each such affiliate or Related Fund of the accuracy of the necessary representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement, as if such affiliate or Related Fund was a Backstop Party, which Related Fund shall also be required to submit the Requisite Documentation to the Subscription Agent.

(g) Any transfer of a Backstop Party’s obligations under this Agreement made in violation of this Section 3 shall be deemed null and void ab initio and of no force or effect, regardless of any prior notice provided to the Debtors or any Backstop Party, and shall not create any obligation or liability of any Debtor or any other Backstop Party to the purported transferee.

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 3, other than (i) a transfer to a Related Fund or (ii) a transafer with the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed), any transfer pursuant to Section 3, must commence at least eight (8) days prior to the Subscription Expiration Deadline, and no transfer, including to a Related Fund, will be recognized if it has not been completed by the Subscription Expiration Deadline. Any transfers in violation of this Section 3(h) shall be deemed null and void ab initio and of no force or effect, regardless of any prior notice provided to the Debtors or any Backstop Party, and shall not create any obligation or liability of any Debtor or any other Backstop Party to the purported transferee.

Section 4. Backstop Party Default. Any Backstop Party that fails to timely fund its Backstop Commitment after written notice thereof (a “Default Notice”) will be liable for the consequences of its breach and the parties hereto may enforce rights of money damages and/or specific performance upon the failure to timely fund by the Defaulting Backstop Party (but for the avoidance of doubt, no Backstop Party shall be liable for any default of any other Backstop Party pursuant to this Agreement); provided that each Backstop Party that is not a Defaulting Backstop Party (each, a “Non-Defaulting Backstop Party”) shall have the right, but not the obligation, for a period of [two (2) days] following the delivery of the Default Notice, to elect to assume up to its pro rata share of such Defaulting Backstop Party’s Backstop Commitment and Minimum Allocation based on the proportion of its Backstop Commitment to the aggregate amount of Backstop Commitments of all Non-Defaulting Backstop Parties assuming such Defaulting Backstop Party’s Backstop Commitment (the “Adjusted Commitment Percentage”), or such other proportion as agreed by the Non-Defaulting Backstop Parties. For the avoidance of doubt, any assumption of the Defaulting Backstop Party’s Backstop Commitment and Minimum Allocation pursuant to this Section 4 may be in whole or in part (and need not be in whole for the assumption of any part thereof to be effective), provided that the assumption of the Backstop Commitment and Minimum Allocation shall be in proportionate amounts. Any Defaulting Backstop Party shall not be entitled to any portion of the Backstop Equity Premium or Backstop Break Payment, and the portion of the Backstop Equity Premium or Backstop Break Payment otherwise payable to any Defaulting Backstop Party shall be paid pro rata to any Backstop Parties that assume all or a portion of the Defaulting Backstop Party’s Backstop Commitment, based on the portion of the Defaulting Backstop Party’s Backstop Commitment so assumed. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the expiration of the time periods set forth in this Section 4 shall not be a condition to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 5. Representations and Warranties of the Company. Except as disclosed in the Company SEC Documents and publically available on the SEC’s Electronic Data-Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval system prior to the date hereof, the Company represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the Backstop Parties as set forth below. Except for representations, warranties and agreements that are expressly limited as to their date, each representation, warranty and agreement is made as of the date hereof.

(i) any Backstop Party shall have breached any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement made by such Backstop Party in this Agreement, and such breach or inaccuracy would, individually or in the aggregate, result in a failure of a condition set forth in ‎‎‎Section 11(d), ‎Section 11(f) or Section 11(g), if continuing on the Plan Effective Date, being satisfied and such breach or inaccuracy is not cured by such Backstop Party by the tenth (10^th) Business Day after the giving of notice thereof to such Backstop Party by the Company; provided that the Company shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this ‎Section if it is then in breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement hereunder that would result in the failure of any condition set forth in ‎Section 10 being satisfied; and provided, further, that prior to the Company being permitted to terminate the Agreement under this Section each of the other non-breaching Backstop Parties shall have the right, but not the obligation, to assume its pro rata share of such breaching Backstop Party’s Backstop Commitment in accordance with Section 4, in which case (to the extent the full amount of such breaching Backstop Party’s Backstop Commitment is assumed by the non-breaching Backstop Parties) the Company shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section;

(ii) subject to prior compliance by the Company and its subsidiaries with the terms of Section 7(j), the Company or the board of directors, board of managers, or similar governing body of the Company reasonably determining in good faith based upon the advice of outside counsel that failing to enter into an Alternative Restructuring Proposal would be inconsistent with the exercise of its fiduciary duties under applicable law;

(v) the RSA has been terminated in accordance with its terms other than a termination under Section 12.04 thereof;

provided, that any such termination shall not relieve the Company of its obligation with respect to the Backstop Break Payment as provided in Section 13(e) other than, if prior to or contemporaneously with such termination, the Company has terminated the RSA pursuant to Section 12.02(d) of the RSA.

(c) Termination by the Required Backstop Parties. The Required Backstop Parties may terminate this Agreement by written notice to the Company upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any of the following:

(i) the Company or the Reorganized Company shall have breached any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement made thereby in this Agreement, and such breach or inaccuracy would, individually or in the aggregate, result in a failure of a condition set forth in ‎Section 10(e), ‎Section 10(g) or ‎Section 10(h), if continuing on the Plan Effective Date, being satisfied and such breach or inaccuracy is not cured by such Debtor by the tenth (10^th) Business Day after the giving of notice thereof to the Company by the Required Backstop Parties; provided that the Required Backstop Parties shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this ‎Section if any Backstop Party is then in breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement hereunder that would result in the failure of any condition set forth in ‎‎Section 11 being satisfied;

(vi) the RSA has been terminated in accordance with its terms other than a termination under Section 12.04 thereof; provided that the Required Backstop Parties acknowledge that the RSA and this Agreement may not be terminated for the reasons set forth in Section 15.02 of the RSA;

(vii) the occurrence of an “Event of Default” (as defined under the DIP Credit Agreement) that has not been waived or timely cured in accordance therewith for more than three (3) Business Days; or

(viii) any of the Chapter 11 Cases shall have been dismissed or converted to a case under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code, or the Bankruptcy Court has entered an order in any of the Chapter 11 Cases appointing an examiner or trustee with expanded powers to oversee or operate the Debtors in the Chapter 11 Cases.

(d) Effect of Termination. Subject to Section 12 and the Company’s obligation to pay the Backstop Break Payment as provided in Section 13(e), upon termination of this Agreement, each party hereto shall be released from its commitments, undertakings and agreements under or related to this Agreement and shall have the rights and remedies that it would have had and shall be entitled to take all actions, whether with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby or otherwise, that it would have been entitled to take had it not entered into this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, if this Agreement is terminated as a result of a breach of this Agreement by a party hereto, such party shall not be released and shall remain liable for any damages resulting from such termination.

(e) Backstop Break Payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein:

(i) if the RSA has not been terminated by the Company Parties or the Plan Sponsor and the Company has consummated a Plan implementing the Toggle Restructuring, then upon the Plan Effective Date, the Company Parties shall, pay or cause to be paid to the Backstop Parties that are not (x) Defaulting Backstop Parties or (y) Backstop Parties whose material breach of this Agreement caused its termination by another Party, by wire transfer of immediately available funds in U.S. dollars to the accounts specified by such Backstop Parties free and clear of any withholding or deduction for any applicable Taxes, a nonrefundable aggregate cash amount equal to $27.5 million (the “Backstop Base Premium”), which shall be allocated among the Backstop Parties pro rata based on each Backstop Party’s Backstop Commitment Percentage (or as otherwise set forth in the schedules to the Backstop Commitment Agreement). The Backstop Base Premium shall be deemed fully earned by the Backstop Parties upon the execution of this Agreement and, upon entry of an order approving the Backstop Commitment Agreement, shall constitute an allowed administrative expense of the Debtors’ estates under Sections 503(b) and 507 of the Bankruptcy Code. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Company Parties effectuate a Plan that implements the Equitization Restructuring and the RSA has not been terminated then the Backstop Equity Premium (and not the Backstop Base Premium) shall be due and owed;

(ii) if the RSA is terminated for any reason or the Company Parties fail to consummate either the Equitization Restructuring or the Toggle Restructuring on terms consistent with the RSA, the Company and/or WPG LP (the “Break Payment Parties”) shall pay or cause to be paid to the Backstop Parties that are not (x) Defaulting Backstop Parties or (y) Backstop Parties whose material breach of this Agreement caused its termination by another Party, by wire transfer of immediately available funds in U.S. dollars to the accounts specified by such Backstop Parties free and clear of any withholding or deduction for any applicable Taxes, a nonrefundable aggregate cash amount equal to $65.0 million (the “Backstop Termination Premium”). The Backstop Termination Premium shall be deemed fully earned by the Backstop Parties upon the execution of this Agreement and, upon entry of an order approving the Backstop Commitment Agreement, shall constitute an allowed administrative expense of Break Payment Parties’ estates under Sections 503(b) and 507 of the Bankruptcy Code, and shall be paid on the effective date of any chapter 11 plan, the consummation of any Alternative Restructuring Proposal or in the event that the Debtors’ chapter 11 proceedings are converted to chapter 7 or dismissed. The Backstop Termination Premium shall be allocated among the Backstop Parties pro rata based on each Backstop Party’s Backstop Commitment Percentage (as otherwise set forth in the schedules to the Backstop Commitment Agreement); provided, however, that the Break Payment Parties shall instead pay the Backstop Base Premium and not the Backstop Termination Premium, if (1) confirmation of the Plan implementing the Equitization Restructuring (or any revised Equitization Restructuring that is consented to by the Plan Sponsor) is denied on “best interests” grounds after having been prosecuted by the Company Parties in good faith, (2) the RSA has not been terminated for any reason other than the failure to meet the Confirmation Order Milestone and/or Effective Date Milestone due to denial of confirmation of such plan implementing the Equitization Restructuring (or any revised Equitization Restructuring that is consented to by the Plan Sponsor) on “best interests” grounds, and (3) a Toggle Restructuring is actually consummated.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Backstop Parties shall only be entitled to one of the Backstop Equity Premium, Backstop Base Premium or Backstop Termination Premium. The term “Backstop Break Payment” shall refer to the Backstop Base Premium or Backstop Termination Premium, as applicable.

Section 14. Indemnification Obligations.

(a) Company Indemnity. Following entry by the Bankruptcy Court of the Backstop Approval Order, but effective as of the date hereof, the Reorganized Company (the “Indemnifying Parties”) shall indemnify and hold harmless each Backstop Party and its Affiliates, equity holders, members, partners, general partners, managers and its and their respective representatives and controlling persons (each, an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and costs and expenses (other than Taxes of the Backstop Parties, except to the extent otherwise provided for in this Agreement) (collectively, “Losses”) that any such Indemnified Person may incur or to which any such Indemnified Person may become subject arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, the Plan and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the Backstop Commitments, the Rights Offering, the payment of the Backstop Equity Premium, the Backstop Break Payment, or the use of the proceeds of the Rights Offering, the Expense Reimbursement or any claim, challenge, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, regardless of whether any Indemnified Person is a party thereto, whether or not such proceedings are brought by the Company or its equity holders, Affiliates, creditors or any other Person, and reimburse each Indemnified Person upon demand for reasonable documented (with such documentation subject to redaction to preserve attorney client and work product privileges) legal or other third party expenses incurred in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending, or providing evidence in or preparing to serve or serving as a witness with respect to, any lawsuit, investigation, claim or other proceeding relating to any of the foregoing (including in connection with the enforcement of the indemnification obligations set forth herein), irrespective of whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Plan are consummated or whether or not this Agreement is terminated; provided, that the foregoing indemnity will not, as to any Indemnified Person, apply to Losses (i) as to any Defaulting Backstop Party or any Indemnified Person related thereto, caused by such default by such Backstop Party, or (ii) to the extent they are found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to arise from the bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnified Person.

(b) Indemnification Procedure. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person of notice of the commencement of any claim, challenge, litigation, investigation or proceeding (an “Indemnified Claim”), such Indemnified Person will, if a claim is to be made hereunder against the Indemnifying Party in respect thereof, notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of the commencement thereof; provided, that (A) the omission to so notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability that it may have hereunder except to the extent it has been materially prejudiced by such failure and (B) the omission to so notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability that it may have to such Indemnified Person otherwise than on account of this Section 14. In case any such Indemnified Claims are brought against any Indemnified Person and it notifies the Indemnifying Party of the commencement thereof, the Indemnifying Party will be entitled to participate therein, and, at its election by providing written notice to such Indemnified Person, the Indemnifying Party will be entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably acceptable to such Indemnified Person; provided, that if the parties (including any impleaded parties) to any such Indemnified Claims include both such Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Party and based on advice of such Indemnified Person’s counsel there are legal defenses available to such Indemnified Person that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party, such Indemnified Person shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such Indemnified Claims. Upon receipt of notice from the Indemnifying Party to such Indemnified Person of its election to so assume the defense of such Indemnified Claims with counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Person, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to such Indemnified Person for expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with the defense thereof or participation therein (other than reasonable costs of investigation) unless (i) such Indemnified Person shall have employed separate counsel (in addition to any local counsel) in connection with the assertion of legal defenses in accordance with the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel representing the Indemnified Persons who are parties to such Indemnified Claims (in addition to one local counsel in each jurisdiction in which local counsel is required)), (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall not have employed counsel reasonably acceptable to such Indemnified Person to represent such Indemnified Person within a reasonable time after the Indemnifying Party has received notice of commencement of the Indemnified Claims from, or delivered on behalf of, the Indemnified Person, (iii) after the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of the Indemnified Claims, the Indemnified Person determines in good faith that the Indemnifying Party has failed or is failing to defend such claim and provides written notice of such determination, and such failure is not reasonably cured within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of such notice, or (iv) the Indemnifying Party shall have authorized in writing the employment of counsel for such Indemnified Person. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall have sole control over any Tax controversy or Tax audit, in each case, relating to the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

(c) Settlement of Indemnified Claims. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any Indemnified Claims effected by such Indemnified Person without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party. If any settlement of any Indemnified Claims is consummated with the written consent of the Indemnifying Party or if there is a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such Indemnified Claims, the Indemnifying Party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person from and against any and all Losses by reason of such settlement or judgment to the extent such Losses are otherwise subject to indemnification by the Indemnifying Party hereunder in accordance with, and subject to the limitations of, this Section 14. The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of an Indemnified Person (which consent shall be granted or withheld, conditioned or delayed in the Indemnified Person’s sole discretion), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Indemnified Claims in respect of which indemnity or contribution has been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person unless (i) such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person from all liability on the claims that are the subject matter of such Indemnified Claims and (ii) such settlement does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person.

(d) Contribution. If for any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to any Indemnified Person or insufficient to hold it harmless from Losses that are subject to indemnification pursuant to Section 14(a), then the Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such Loss in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Person, on the other hand, but also the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Person, on the other hand, as well as any relevant equitable considerations. It is hereby agreed that the relative benefits to the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and all Indemnified Persons, on the other hand, shall be deemed, with respect to the Backstop Parties, to be in the same proportion as (i) the total value received or proposed to be received by the Company pursuant to the issuance and sale of the Rights Offering Shares in the Rights Offering contemplated by this Agreement and the Plan, bears to (ii) the Backstop Equity Premium paid or proposed to be paid to the Backstop Parties. The Indemnifying Parties also agree that no Indemnified Person shall have any liability based on their comparative or contributory negligence or otherwise to the Indemnifying Parties, any Person asserting claims on behalf of or in right of any of the Indemnifying Parties, or any other Person in connection with an Indemnified Claim.

(e) Treatment of Indemnification Payments. All amounts paid by an Indemnifying Party to an Indemnified Person under this Section 14 shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be treated for all Tax purposes as adjustments to the purchase price for the Rights Offering Shares subscribed for by such Indemnified Person in the Rights Offering and the Backstop Shares purchased by such Indemnified Person. The provisions of this Section 14 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without these provisions the Backstop Parties would not have entered into this Agreement, and the obligations of the Company under this Section 14 shall constitute allowed administrative expenses of the Debtors’ estate under Sections 503(b) and 507 of the Bankruptcy Code and are payable without further order of the Bankruptcy Court, and the Company may comply with the requirements of this Section 14 without further order of the Bankruptcy Court.

Section 15. Notices. All notices and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given (a) when delivered personally by hand (with written confirmation of receipt), (b) when sent via electronic mail (with acknowledgment received), (c) five (5) days after being deposited with the United States Post Office, by registered or certified mail (return receipt requested), postage prepaid, or (d) one (1) Business Day following the day sent by overnight courier (with written confirmation of receipt), in each case at the following addresses (or to such other address as a party hereto may have specified by like notice):

Section 16. Assignment; Third Party Beneficiaries. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement may be assigned by any of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of the Company, with respect to any assignment by any Backstop Party, or the Required Backstop Parties, with respect to any assignment by the Company. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, the Backstop Parties’ obligations hereunder may be assigned, delegated or transferred, in whole or in part, without the Company’s consent by any Backstop Party in accordance with the terms of Section 3 or Section 4. Any purported assignment in violation of this Section 16 shall be void ab initio and of no force or effect.

Except solely with respect to Indemnified Persons as set forth in Section 14 and the financial advisors and investment bankers as set forth in the final sentence of Section 6(f), each Party intends that this Agreement does not benefit or create any right or cause of action in or on behalf of any Person other than the Parties.

Section 17. Complete Agreement. This Agreement is the “Backstop Commitment Agreement” referred to in the RSA and this Agreement (including the exhibits, the schedules, and the other documents and instruments referred to herein and in the RSA) constitutes the entire agreement of the parties hereto and supersedes all prior agreements, arrangements or understandings, whether written or oral, among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, except that the parties hereto acknowledge that any confidentiality agreements heretofore executed among the parties hereto and the RSA will continue in full force and effect.

Section 18. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Selection of Forum; Waiver of Trial by Jury. This Agreement, and all claims or causes of action (whether in contract or tort) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement (including the exhibits and schedules hereto), or the negotiation, execution, termination, performance or nonperformance of this Agreement (including the exhibits and schedules hereto), shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts made and performed in such State, without regard to any conflict of laws principles thereof, and, to the extent applicable, the Bankruptcy Code. Each party hereto agrees that it shall bring any action or proceeding in respect of any claim based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement, any provision hereof or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York or any New York State court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan of New York City (the “Chosen Courts”), and solely in connection with claims arising under this Agreement or the transactions that are the subject of this Agreement (a) irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts, (b) waives any objection to laying venue in any such action or proceeding in the Chosen Courts and (c) waives any objection that the Chosen Courts are an inconvenient forum or do not have jurisdiction over any party hereto; provided that upon the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, the Bankruptcy Court shall be the sole Chosen Court. Each party hereto agrees that a judgment in any such dispute may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, MATTER OR PROCEEDING BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF, OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY PROVISION HEREOF OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

Section 19. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which will be considered one and the same agreement and will become effective when counterparts have been signed by each of the parties hereto and delivered to the other parties hereto (including via electronic mail or other electronic transmission), it being understood that each party need not sign the same counterpart.

Section 20. Consent or Approval of the Backstop Parties. Whenever this Agreement refers to any consent or approval to be given by, or determination to be made by, the Backstop Parties, unless otherwise expressly provided in any particular instance, such reference shall be deemed to require the consent, approval or determination of the Required Backstop Parties only (and not any other Backstop Parties).

Section 21. Amendments and Waivers.

(a) This Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented and the terms and conditions of this Agreement may be waived, only by a written instrument (with email being sufficient) signed by the Company and the Required Backstop Parties and subject, to the extent required after the Petition Date, to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court; provided that any modification of, or amendment or supplement to, this Agreement that would have the effect of (i) materially and adversely affecting any Backstop Party in a manner that is disproportionate to any other Backstop Party, (ii) increasing the aggregate purchase price to be paid by any of the Backstop Parties in respect of the Backstop Party Shares, (iii) increasing or decreasing any Backstop Party’s Backstop Commitment Percentage (as set forth on Schedule 1) (other than as a result of a permitted transfer to which such Backstop Party is a party or pursuant to Section 4 hereof), (iv) changing the terms of or the conditions to payment of the Backstop Equity Premium, (v) amending, modifying or supplementing the terms of Section 13 (or any other amendment, modification or supplement in respect of the matters governed by Section 13) or (vi) modifying this Section 21, shall require the prior written consent of each Backstop Party.

(b) No delay on the part of any party hereto in exercising any right, power or privilege pursuant to this Agreement will operate as a waiver thereof, nor will any waiver on the part of any party hereto of any right, power or privilege pursuant to this Agreement, nor will any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege pursuant to this Agreement, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege pursuant to this Agreement. The rights and remedies provided pursuant to this Agreement are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies which any party hereto otherwise may have at law or in equity.

Section 22. Specific Performance; Damages. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that any breach of the terms of this Agreement would give rise to irreparable harm for which money damages would not be an adequate remedy and, accordingly, the parties hereto agree that in addition to any other remedies to which they are entitled at law or in equity, each party hereto will be entitled to enforce the terms of this Agreement by a decree of specific performance without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages as a remedy and without the necessity of posting bond. Unless otherwise expressly stated in this Agreement, no right or remedy in this Section 22 is intended to be exclusive or to preclude a party hereto from pursuing other rights and remedies to the extent available under this Agreement, at law or in equity.

Section 23. Other Interpretive Matters.

(a) Unless otherwise expressly provided, for purposes of this Agreement, the following rules of interpretation shall apply: (i) when calculating the period of time before which, within which or following which any act is to be done or step taken pursuant to this Agreement, the date that is the reference date in calculating such period shall be excluded and, if the last day of such period is a non-Business Day, the period in question shall end on the next succeeding Business Day; (ii) any reference in this Agreement to “$” shall mean U.S. dollars; (iii) all exhibits and schedules annexed hereto or referred to herein are hereby incorporated in and made a part of this Agreement as if set forth in full herein and any capitalized terms used in any exhibit or schedule but not otherwise defined therein shall be defined as set forth in this Agreement; (iv) words imparting the singular number only shall include the plural and vice versa; (v) the words such as “herein,” “hereinafter,” “hereof,” and “hereunder” refer to this Agreement as a whole and not merely to a subdivision in which such words appear unless the context otherwise requires; (vi) the word “including” or any variation thereof means “including, without limitation” and shall not be construed to limit any general statement that it follows to the specific or similar items or matters immediately following it; (vii) the division of this Agreement into Sections and other subdivisions and the insertion of headings are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect or be utilized in construing or interpreting this Agreement; and (viii) all references in this Agreement to any “Section” are to the corresponding Section of this Agreement unless otherwise specified. Unless the context otherwise requires, references herein to the “Company” after the Plan Effective Date shall be deemed to be references to the Reorganized Company and references to the “Reorganized Company” prior to the Plan Effective Date shall be deemed to be references to the Company, in each case for all purposes of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, (A) “Reorganized Company” means Reorganized WPG and (B) “subsidiary” means, with respect to any Person, any corporation, limited liability company, partnership or other legal entity as to which such Person (either alone or through or together with any other subsidiary), (x) owns, directly or indirectly, more than fifty percent (50%) of the capital stock or equity interests, (y) has the power to elect a majority of the board of directors or similar governing body or (z) has the power to direct the business and policies.

(b) The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and, in the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as jointly drafted by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party hereto by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement.

Section 24. Several Obligations; No Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the parties hereto agree that (1) the representations and warranties of each Backstop Party made in this Agreement are being made on a several, and not joint, basis, (2) the obligations of each Backstop Party under this Agreement are several, and not joint, obligations of each of them and (3) no Backstop Party shall have any liability for the breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, commitment, or obligation by any other Backstop Party. Nothing in this Agreement requires any Backstop Party to advance capital to any Company Party (as defined in the RSA) or incur any material liability.

Section 25. Further Assurances. Without in any way limiting any other obligation of the Company or any Backstop Party in this Agreement, each Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take or cause to be taken all actions, and do or cause to be done all things, reasonably necessary, and as the Company or the Required Backstop Parties, as applicable, may reasonably request, in order to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(COLLECTIVELY, THE “DEBTORS” OR “COMPANY”)

EQUITY RIGHTS OFFERING PROCEDURES

Each Equity Rights Offering Security (as defined below) distributed and issued by the Debtors upon the exercise of the Subscription Rights (as defined below) pursuant hereto is being distributed and issued by the Debtors without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)¹, in reliance upon the exemption in section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code to the maximum extent permitted and applicable and, if that reliance on such section is either not permitted or not applicable, section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder. None of the rights to subscribe to the Equity Rights Offering (the “Subscription Rights”) or purchase the Equity Rights Offering Securities issuable upon exercise of such Subscription Rights distributed pursuant to these Equity Rights Offering Procedures have been or will be registered under the Securities Act or any state or local law requiring registration for the offer and sale of a security.

Prior to the Subscription Tender Deadline (as defined below), and except as provided in the Backstop Commitment Agreement, the Subscription Rights are not detachable from the Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims and may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, hypothecated, participated, donated or otherwise encumbered or disposed of, directly or indirectly (each a “Transfer”) separately from the Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims (including through derivatives, options, swaps, forward sales or other transactions in which any person receives the right to own or acquire any current or future interest in the Subscription Rights). Except as provided in the Backstop Commitment Agreement, the Subscription Rights are not detachable from the Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims and, such Subscription Rights will be cancelled and neither such Eligible Holder nor the purported transferee will receive any Equity Rights Offering Security otherwise purchasable on account of such Transferred Subscription Rights. Any Allowed Unsecured Notes Claim traded after the Subscription Tender Deadline will not be traded with the Subscription Rights, which shall have lapsed.

The Debtors, through their agents, distributed the Disclosure Statement in connection with the Debtors’ solicitation of votes to accept or reject the Plan. The Disclosure Statement sets forth important information, including risk factors, that each Equity Rights Offering Participant should carefully read and consider prior to making a decision to participate in the Equity Rights Offering. Additional copies of the Disclosure Statement are available upon request to Prime Clerk LLC (the “Subscription Agent”). The Disclosure Statement is also available on the Debtors’ case website at xxxxx://xxxxx.xxxxxxxxxx.xxx/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.

¹	Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization of Washington Prime Group Inc., and its Debtor Affiliates [Docket No. [●]] (as may be amended, modified, or supplemented from time to time, the “Plan”).

Each Equity Rights Offering Security issued upon exercise of a Subscription Right pursuant to section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act (and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder) and each book entry position or certificate issued in exchange for or upon the sale, assignment, or transfer of any such Equity Rights Offering Security shall be deemed to contain or be stamped or otherwise imprinted with, as applicable, a legend in substantially the following form:

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR ANY OTHER APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT OR AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION THEREUNDER.”

The Company is conducting the Equity Rights Offering on behalf of Reorganized WPG in good faith and in compliance with the Bankruptcy Code. In accordance with section 1125(e) of the Bankruptcy Code, a debtor or any of its agents that participates, in good faith and in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, in the offer, issuance, sale, or purchase of a security offered or sold under the plan of the debtor, of an affiliate participating in a joint plan with the debtor, or of a newly organized successor to the debtor under the plan is not liable, on account of such participation, for violation of any applicable law, rule, or regulation governing the offer, issuance, sale, or purchase of securities.

To exercise the Subscription Rights, beneficial holders of the Unsecured Notes (each, a “Beneficial Holder”) must instruct the bank, broker, or other financial institution holding its Unsecured Notes in “street name” at DTC (each a “Nominee”) to deliver electronically the Beneficial Holder’s Unsecured Notes into the appropriate “envelope” established through DTC’s Automated Tender Offer Program (“ATOP”), so that such delivery occurs on or before the Subscription Tender Deadline. Failure to timely tender your Notes by the Subscription Tender Deadline may result in the waiver and forfeiture of your Subscription Rights.

Further, Beneficial Holders of the Unsecured Notes must complete and submit a Subscription Form (as defined below) to the Subscription Agent on or before the Subscription Form and Payment Deadline (as defined below). In connection with participating in the Rights Offering, each Beneficial Holder is advised to allot sufficient time to coordinate with its Nominee, so that its completed Subscription Form includes the applicable ATOP numbers and wire transfer information and is actually received by the Subscription Agent on or before the Subscription Form and Payment Deadline. Beneficial Holders must also include a completed and executed IRS Form W-9 or IRS Form W-8, as applicable. In addition, each Beneficial Holder that is not a Backstop Party must submit (or cause to be submitted) a wire transfer of the Purchase Price to the Subscription Agent on or before the Subscription Form and Payment Deadline. Failure by a Beneficial Holder to submit a Subscription Form and/or applicable tax form and to wire the applicable Purchase Price by the Subscription Form and Payment Deadline will result in the waiver and forfeiture of its Subscription Rights.

Upon tendering their Unsecured Notes, Beneficial Holders of Unsecured Notes who are not Backstop Parties must receive their Equity Rights Offering Securities via their Nominees. For the avoidance of doubt, such Beneficial Holder cannot instruct DTC or the Subscription Agent to distribute its Equity Rights Offering Securities to another holder directly. To distribute its Equity Rights Offering Securities to another holder, such Beneficial Holder must instruct each of its Nominees to do so (or complete such a transfer after such Beneficial Holder receives its Equity Rights Offering Securities).

Further, in connection with the Equity Rights Offering, Backstop Parties must deliver the appropriate funding amounts directly to the Subscription Agent or the Escrow Account (as defined in the Backstop Commitment Agreement), as applicable, no later than the deadline specified in the Funding Notice (the “Backstop Funding Deadline”).

Event	Date	Description
Subscription Commencement Date	[July 10], 2021	Commencement of the Equity Rights Offering.
Subscription Tender Deadline	[August 2, 2021 at 5:00 p.m. (Prevailing Eastern Time)]	On or before the Subscription Tender Deadline, the Beneficial Holder’s Nominee must tender the Unsecured Notes into the appropriate option on DTC’s ATOP platform. Unsecured Notes delivered into ATOP will be frozen and may not thereafter be transferred.
Subscription Form and Payment Deadline	[August 3], 2021 at 5:00 p.m. (Prevailing Eastern Time) (i.e., one (1) business day following the Subscription Tender Deadline)	On or before the Subscription Form and Payment Deadline, the Subscription Agent must receive the Beneficial Holder’s completed and executed Subscription Form (with accompanying IRS Form W-9 or appropriate IRS Form W-8, as applicable). All participating Beneficial Holders must confirm that they are “accredited investors”. Beneficial Holders who are not Backstop Parties must deliver the Purchase Price (as defined below) to the Subscription Agent by the Subscription Form and Payment Deadline. Beneficial Holders who are Backstop Parties must deliver the Purchase Price no later than the Backstop Funding Deadline.

To Equity Rights Offering Participants and Nominees of the Equity Rights Offering Participants:

On [●], 2021, the Debtors filed the Plan and the Disclosure Statement for the Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization of Washington Prime Group Inc., and its Debtor Affiliates [Docket No. [●]] (as may be amended, supplemented, or modified from time to time, the “Disclosure Statement”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division (the “Court”).

Pursuant to the Plan and as discussed in the Disclosure Statement, the Reorganized Company will offer and sell New Common Equity (such offering, the “Equity Rights Offering” and, such securities, the “Equity Rights Offering Securities”) at an aggregate purchase price equal to the sum of (i) $190 million plus (ii) the amount required to pay the DIP Claims in cash in full plus (iii) the amount required to fund anticipated emergence cash flows plus (iv) the amount required to fund cash payments to Allowed Existing Equity Interests, which in the aggregate shall not exceed $325.0 million (the “Maximum Rights Offering Amount”).

Each Eligible Holder of an Allowed Unsecured Notes Claim that is an “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501(a) promulgated under the Securities Act) (an “Accredited Investor” and each such Holder that is an Accredited Investor, an “Equity Rights Offering Participant”) has the right to participate in the Equity Rights Offering of Equity Rights Offering Securities (defined below) in accordance with the terms and conditions of these Equity Rights Offering Procedures; provided that such Equity Rights Offering Participant timely and validly arranges for its Nominee to tender the relevant portion of such holder’s Unsecured Notes via DTC’s ATOP. Fifty percent (50%) of the Equity Rights Offering Securities shall be reserved for the Backstop Parties pursuant to the Backstop Commitment Agreement and the remainder shall be made available to each Eligible Holder of Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims (including the Backstop Parties) on a pro rata basis based on the value of each holder’s Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims.

Each Equity Rights Offering Participant that is not a Backstop Party must return a duly completed and executed Beneficial Holder Subscription Form (the “Subscription Form”) (with accompanying IRS Form W-9 or IRS Form W-8 (together with any applicable attachments), as applicable, and Investor Questionnaire) to its Nominee (or otherwise follow the directions of its Nominee) so the Nominee may effect such Eligible Holder’s subscription instructions and deliver the applicable Unsecured Notes via DTC’s ATOP system prior to the Subscription Tender Date. Delivery of the Unsecured Notes via ATOP shall be the sole means for an Equity Rights Offering Participant that is not a Backstop Party to exercise the Subscription Rights associated with such Unsecured Notes. The amount of time necessary for a Nominee to process and deliver underlying Unsecured Notes via ATOP is variable, and Equity Rights Offering Participants are urged to consult with their Nominees to determine the necessary deadline to return their Subscription instructions. Failure to validly complete, execute, and return the Subscription Form (with accompanying IRS Form W-9 or IRS Form W-8, as applicable, and Investor Questionnaire) on a timely basis will result in forfeiture of an Equity Rights Offering Participant’s rights to participate in the Equity Rights Offering. None of the Debtors, the Subscription Agent, or any of the Backstop Parties will have any liability for any such failure.

Pursuant to the Plan, each Backstop Party will receive rights to subscribe for its applicable portion of the Equity Rights Offering Securities in accordance with the Backstop Commitment Agreement; provided that such Backstop Party timely and properly executes and delivers its Subscription Form (with accompanying IRS Form W-9 or IRS Form W-8, as applicable, and Investor Questionnaire) to the Subscription Agent in advance of the Subscription Form and Payment Deadline.

Each Backstop Party shall deliver and pay its applicable Funding Amount in the manner specified in the Backstop Commitment Agreement and prior to the Backstop Funding Deadline.

No Equity Rights Offering Participant shall be entitled to participate in the Equity Rights Offering unless the Purchase Price for the Equity Rights Offering Securities it subscribes for is received by the Subscription Agent on or before Subscription Form and Payment Deadline (or in the case of the Backstop Parties, by the Backstop Funding Deadline). No interest is payable on any advanced funding of the Purchase Price. If the Equity Rights Offering is terminated for any reason, any Purchase Price that the Subscription Agent received previously will be returned to Equity Rights Offering Participants, as provided in Section 6 hereof. If the amount of the Rights Offering is reduced below the Maximum Rights Offering Amount, any excess Purchase Price that the Subscription Agent received previously from any Equity Rights Offering Participant will be returned to such Equity Rights Offering Participant as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Date. No interest will be paid on any returned Purchase Price. Any Equity Rights Offering Participant submitting payment via the Subscription Agent must coordinate with the Subscription Agent to ensure the Subscription Agent receives such payment (i) in the case of an Equity Rights Offering Participant that is not a Backstop Party, on or before the Subscription Form and Payment Deadline or (ii) in the case of an Equity Rights Offering Participant that is a Backstop Party, on or before the Backstop Funding Deadline.

An Equity Rights Offering Participant must complete all of the steps outlined below to participate in the Equity Rights Offering. If all of the steps outlined below are not completed on or before the Subscription Tender Deadline or the Subscription Form and Payment Deadline, as applicable, an Equity Rights Offering Participant shall be deemed to have forever and irrevocably relinquished and waived its right to participate in the Equity Rights Offering.

Rights Offering

Equity Rights Offering Participants that are not Backstop Parties have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in the Equity Rights Offering. Equity Rights Offering Participants that are Backstop Parties must exercise their Subscription Rights pursuant to the Backstop Commitment Agreement. Such Equity Rights Offering Participants shall receive rights to subscribe for their pro rata portion of the Rights Offering Securities, as described in these Equity Rights Offering Procedures and the Plan. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and these Equity Rights Offering Procedures, each Equity Rights Offering Participant that is not a Backstop Party is entitled to subscribe, at a purchase price of $13.50 per share, for up to 16.7 shares of Equity Rights Offering Securities per $1,000 of Principal Amount of the Company’s 5.95% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2024; provided, however, that if the Rights Offering is reduced below the Maximum Rights Offering Amount, the number of shares of Equity Rights Offering Securities per $1,000 of Principal Amount will be reduced proportionately. With respect to any shares, the “Purchase Price” shall mean the price per share ($13.50) multiplied by the number of shares.

There will be no over-subscription privilege in the Equity Rights Offering. Any Equity Rights Offering Securities that are unsubscribed by an Equity Rights Offering Participant entitled thereto will not be offered to other Equity Rights Offering Participants but will be purchased by the Backstop Parties in accordance with the Backstop Commitment Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Backstop Commitment Agreement, each Backstop Party is obligated to purchase (on a several and not joint basis) its portion of such unsubscribed shares of Equity Rights Offering Securities based on the Backstop Commitment Percentage (as defined in the Backstop Commitment Agreement).

Any Equity Rights Offering Participant that subscribes for Equity Rights Offering Securities and is deemed to be an “underwriter” under section 1145(b) of the Bankruptcy Code will be subject to restrictions under the Securities Act on its ability to resell those securities. Resale restrictions are discussed in more detail in Article XI of the Disclosure Statement entitled “Certain Securities Law Matters.”

SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE EQUITY RIGHTS OFFERING PROCEDURES AND THE BACKSTOP COMMITMENT AGREEMENT IN THE CASE OF ANY BACKSTOP PARTY, ALL SUBSCRIPTIONS SET FORTH IN THE APPLICABLE SUBSCRIPTION FORM ARE IRREVOCABLE.

Subscription Period

The Equity Rights Offering will commence on the Subscription Commencement Date and will expire at the Subscription Tender Deadline. Each Equity Rights Offering Participant intending to purchase Equity Rights Offering Securities in the Equity Rights Offering must affirmatively elect to exercise its Subscription Rights in the manner set forth in the Subscription Form on or before the Subscription Tender Deadline. For administrative purposes, the Subscription Form and Payment Deadline shall be one (1) day after the Subscription Tender Deadline; however, each Equity Rights Offering Participant must provide its Subscription Form and wire its Purchase Price on or before the Subscription Form and Payment Deadline. Backstop Parties are required, pursuant to the Backstop Commitment Agreement, to subscribe in full with respect to their Subscription Rights.

An Equity Rights Offering Participant is not permitted to exercise any Subscription Rights after the Subscription Tender Deadline, and any purported exercise received by the Subscription Agent after the Subscription Tender Deadline, regardless of when the documents or payment relating to such exercise are sent, will not be honored; provided that the Company shall have the discretion, with the prior written consent of the Required Backstop Parties (for which email of counsel shall suffice), to allow any exercise of Subscription Rights after the Subscription Tender Deadline by extending the deadline through which Equity Rights Offering Participants can tender through DTC’s ATOP.

Each of the Subscription Tender Deadline and the Subscription Form and Payment Deadline may be extended by the Company with the prior written consent of the Required Backstop Parties (for which email of counsel shall suffice).

Delivery of Subscription Documents

Each Equity Rights Offering Participant may exercise all or any portion of such Equity Rights Offering Participant’s Subscription Rights, subject to the terms and conditions contained herein. On the Subscription Commencement Date, the applicable Subscription Form and these Equity Rights Offering Procedures will be sent to the Subscription Agent and each Equity Rights Offering Participant, together with appropriate instructions for the proper completion, due execution, and timely delivery of the executed Subscription Form (with accompanying IRS Form W-9 or IRS Form W-8 (together with any applicable attachments), as applicable, and Investor Questionnaire) and the payment of the applicable Purchase Price for its Equity Rights Offering Securities.

Exercise of Subscription Rights

Each Equity Rights Offering Participant’s Nominee must submit the relevant portion of Unsecured Notes as to which the Subscription Rights pertain into the ATOP system to the account that the Subscription Agent maintains with DTC.

(a) To validly exercise Subscription Rights, each Beneficial Holder that is not a Backstop Party must:

(i)

instruct its Nominee(s) to electronically deliver the Unsecured Notes underlying the Subscription Rights that are being exercised through ATOP such that they are received by the Subscription Tender Deadline;

(ii)

no later than the Subscription Form and Payment Deadline, pay the applicable Purchase Price to the Subscription Agent by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with the instructions included in Item 4 of the Subscription Form; and

(iii)

return a duly completed and executed Subscription Form (with accompanying IRS Form W-9 or appropriate IRS Form W-8, as applicable) to the Subscription Agent (or its Nominee if otherwise directed by its Nominee) so that such documents are actually received by the Subscription Agent on or before the Subscription Form and Payment Deadline.

(b) To validly exercise Subscription Rights, each Beneficial Holder that is a Backstop Party must:

(i)

instruct its Nominee(s) to electronically deliver the Unsecured Notes underlying the Subscription Rights that are being exercised through ATOP, such that they are received by the Subscription Tender Deadline;

(ii)

return a duly completed and executed Subscription Form (with accompanying IRS Form W-9 or appropriate IRS Form W-8, as applicable), including Item 6 thereto, to the Subscription Agent or its Nominee (as directed by its Nominee), so that such documents are actually received by the Subscription Agent on or before the Subscription Form and Payment Deadline; and

(iii)

no later than the deadline specified in the Funding Notice (as defined in the Backstop Commitment Agreement) (such deadline, the “Backstop Funding Deadline”), pay the applicable Purchase Price to the Subscription Agent or to the Escrow Account established and maintained in accordance with the Backstop Commitment Agreement by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with the instructions included in the Funding Notice.

(c) The cash paid to the Subscription Agent (or, in the case of Equity Rights Offering Participants who are Backstop Parties, any other applicable third-party) in accordance with these Equity Rights Offering Procedures will be deposited and held by the Subscription Agent in a segregated escrow account until released to the Debtor in connection with the settlement of the Equity Rights Offering on the Effective Date. The Subscription Agent may not use such cash for any other purpose prior to the Effective Date and may not encumber or permit such cash to be encumbered with any lien or similar encumbrance. The cash held by the Subscription Agent hereunder or the cash deposited into the Account shall not be deemed part of the Debtors’ bankruptcy estates.

(d) If the Subscription Agent receives funds from any Equity Rights Offering Participant that does not correspond to the amount of the Equity Rights Offering Securities elected to be purchased by such participant, the amount of Equity Rights Offering Securities deemed to be purchased by such participant will be the lesser of (a) the amount of Equity Rights Offering Securities elected to be purchased by such Equity Rights Offering Participant, as evidenced in the Subscription Form, and (b) the amount of the funds received, in each case up to such participant’s applicable portion of Equity Rights Offering Securities.

Transfer Restriction; Revocation

Prior to the Subscription Tender Deadline, the Subscription Rights are not transferable or assignable except as otherwise provided in the Backstop Commitment Agreement. Once an Equity Rights Offering Participant has properly exercised its Subscription Rights, subject to the terms and conditions contained in these Equity Rights Offering Procedures and, in the case of any Backstop Party, the Backstop Commitment Agreement, such exercise will be irrevocable. Any Allowed Unsecured Notes Claim traded after the Subscription Tender Deadline will not be traded with the Subscription Rights, which shall have lapsed.

Termination/Return of Payment

Unless the Effective Date has occurred, the Equity Rights Offering will be deemed automatically terminated without any action of any party upon the earlier of (i) termination of the Plan or rejection of the Plan by all classes entitled to vote, (ii) termination of the Restructuring Support Agreement in accordance with its terms, (iii) termination of the Backstop Commitment Agreement in accordance with its terms and (iv) the Outside Date (as defined in the Backstop Commitment Agreement and as may be extended pursuant to the terms of the Backstop Commitment Agreement). If the Equity Rights Offering is terminated other than through completion according to its terms, any payments received pursuant to these Equity Rights Offering Procedures will be returned, without interest, to the applicable Equity Rights Offering Participant as soon as reasonably practicable after the date of termination.

Settlement of the Rights Offering

The settlement of the Equity Rights Offering is conditioned on confirmation of the Plan by the Court, compliance by the Debtors with these Equity Rights Offering Procedures, and the simultaneous occurrence of the Effective Date.

The Debtors intend that the Equity Rights Offering Securities that are not issued to Backstop Parties will be DTC-eligible. DTC or its Nominee will be the holder of record of such Equity Rights Offering Securities.

The Debtors intend that the Equity Rights Offering Securities issued to Backstop Parties or their designee will not be DTC-eligible and will be issued in book-entry form on the books of the Company’s transfer agent.

Minimum Tender Amounts

An Equity Rights Offering Participant must tender a minimum of $1,000 of Unsecured Notes to participate in the Equity Rights Offering. Therefore, DTC will accept tenders of only $1,000 of Unsecured Notes or more.

Fractional Shares

No fractional Subscription Rights or Equity Rights Offering Securities will be issued in the Equity Rights Offering. All share allocations (including each Equity Rights Offering Participant’s Equity Rights Offering Securities) will be calculated and rounded down to the nearest whole share. The total amount of Equity Rights Offering Securities that may be purchased pursuant to the Equity Rights Offering shall be adjusted as necessary to account for the rounding described in this Section 8. No compensation shall be paid, whether in cash or otherwise, in respect of any rounded-down amounts.

10.

Validity of Exercise of Subscription Rights and Delivery of Equity Rights Offering Materials

The Debtors shall determine all questions concerning the timeliness, viability, form and eligibility of any exercise of Subscription Rights in good faith and in consultation with the Required Backstop Parties, and may, with the prior written consent of the Required Backstop Parties (for which email of counsel shall suffice) waive or reject any defect or irregularity in or permit such defect or irregularity to be corrected within such time, as they may determine in good faith, the purported exercise of any Subscription Rights. Subscription Forms will be deemed not to have been received or accepted until all irregularities have been waived or cured within such time as the Debtors determine in good faith in consultation with the Required Backstop Parties.

Before exercising any Subscription Rights, Equity Rights Offering Participants should read the Disclosure Statement and the Plan for information relating to the Debtors and the risk factors to be considered.

All calculations, including the calculation of (i) the value of any Equity Rights Offering Participant’s Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims for the purposes of the Equity Rights Offering and (ii) any Equity Rights Offering Participant’s Equity Rights Offering Securities, shall be made in good faith by the Debtors in consultation with the Required Backstop Parties and, in each case, in accordance with any Claim amounts included in the Plan, and such calculations will be conclusive absent manifest error. Any disputes regarding such calculations shall be subject to a final and binding determination by the Court.

11.

Modification of Procedures

The Debtors reserve the right to modify these Equity Rights Offering Procedures or adopt additional procedures consistent with these Equity Rights Offering Procedures to effectuate the Equity Rights Offering and to issue the Equity Rights Offering Securities, provided, however, that the Debtors shall provide prompt written notice to each Equity Rights Offering Participant of any material modification to these Equity Rights Offering Procedures made after the Subscription Commencement Date. In so doing, the Debtors may execute and enter into agreements and take further action that the Debtors determine in good faith is necessary and appropriate to effectuate and implement the Equity Rights Offering and the issuance of the Equity Rights Offering Securities.

12.

Inquiries and Transmittal of Documents; Subscription Agent

Questions relating to the Equity Rights Offering should be directed to the Subscription Agent via email to xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxx.xxx (please reference “Washington Prime Group Inc.

(xi) No Claims or Causes of Action. No claims or causes of action exist against, or with respect to, the Prepetition Secured Parties under any agreements by and among the Debtors and any such party that is in existence as of the Petition Date.

G. Findings Regarding the DIP Financing and Use of Prepetition Collateral.

(i) Good and sufficient cause has been shown for the entry of this Interim Order.

(ii) The Debtors have an immediate and critical need to obtain the DIP Financing and to use Prepetition Collateral in each case on an interim basis, in order to permit, among other things, the orderly continuation of the operation of their businesses, to maintain business relationships with counterparties, vendors, and tenants, to make payroll, to make capital expenditures, and to satisfy other working capital and operational needs. The access of the Debtors to sufficient working capital and liquidity through the use of the Prepetition Secured Parties’ Cash Collateral and other Prepetition Collateral, incurrence of new indebtedness under the DIP Term Loan Facility, and other financial accommodations provided under the DIP Documents are necessary and vital to the preservation and maintenance of the going concern value of the Debtors and to the Debtors’ successful reorganization.

(iii) The Debtors are unable to obtain financing on more favorable terms from sources other than the DIP Lenders and are unable to obtain adequate unsecured credit allowable under section 503(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code as an administrative expense. The Debtors are also unable to obtain secured credit allowable under section 364(c)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code without the Debtors granting to the DIP Secured Parties, subject to the Carve Out, the DIP Liens and the DIP Superpriority Claims (as defined herein) and, subject to the Carve Out, incurring the Adequate Protection Obligations, in each case, under the terms and conditions set forth in this Interim Order and in the DIP Documents.

(iv) The assets of the Principal DIP Grantors (as defined below), including the Principal DIP Collateral, and the Principal DIP Pledged Equity (as defined below) are in each case unencumbered and are not subject to any of the Prepetition Credit Facility Liens, and the Borrower and the Debtors may grant the DIP Liens pursuant to sections 364(c)(2) and, with respect to assets encumbered by valid, duly perfected, and non-avoidable liens as of the Petition Date (or valid and non-avoidable liens in existence as of the Petition Date that are perfected subsequent to the Petition Date as permitted by Section 546(b) of the Bankruptcy Code), 364(c)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code.

(v) Based on the DIP Motion, the Xxxxxx Declaration, the Xxxxxxx Declaration, the First Day Declaration, and the record presented to the Court at the Interim Hearing, the terms of the DIP Financing and the terms on which the Debtors may continue to use the Prepetition Collateral (including the Prepetition Secured Parties’ Cash Collateral) pursuant to this Interim Order and the DIP Documents are fair and reasonable, reflect the Debtors’ exercise of prudent business judgment consistent with their fiduciary duties, and constitute reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration.

(vi) The Prepetition Secured Parties have consented to the Debtors’ use of the Prepetition Collateral, and, to the extent such consent is necessary, the Debtors’ entry into the DIP Documents, in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions in this Interim Order and the DIP Documents, including, subject to the Carve Out, the Prepetition Grantors incurring the Adequate Protection Obligations as set forth herein.

(vii) The DIP Financing has been negotiated in good faith and at arm’s‑length between the Debtors and the DIP Secured Parties, and all of the Debtors’ obligations and indebtedness arising under, in respect of, or in connection with, the DIP Financing and the DIP Documents, including all DIP Term Loans made to the Debtors pursuant to the DIP Documents, and any other DIP Obligations, shall be deemed to have been extended by the DIP Lenders in good faith, as that term is used in section 364(e) of the Bankruptcy Code, and in express reliance upon the protections offered by section 364(e) of the Bankruptcy Code, and the DIP Secured Parties shall be entitled to the full protection of section 364(e) of the Bankruptcy Code in the event that this Interim Order or any provision hereof is vacated, reversed or modified, on appeal or otherwise.

(viii) The Prepetition Secured Parties have acted in good faith regarding the continued use of the Prepetition Collateral to fund the administration of the Debtors’ estates and continued operation of their businesses (including the incurrence and payment of the Adequate Protection Obligations and the granting of the Credit Facility Adequate Protection Liens (as defined herein)), in accordance with the terms hereof, and the Prepetition Secured Parties (and their successors and assigns) shall be entitled to the full protection of section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code in the event that this Interim Order or any provision hereof is vacated, reversed or modified, on appeal or otherwise.

(ix) The Prepetition Secured Parties are entitled to the adequate protection provided in this Interim Order as and to the extent set forth herein pursuant to sections 361, 362, and 363 of the Bankruptcy Code. Based on the DIP Motion and on the record presented to the Court, the terms of the proposed adequate protection arrangements and the use of the Prepetition Collateral, including the Prepetition Secured Parties’ Cash Collateral, are fair and reasonable, reflect the Debtors’ prudent exercise of business judgment, and constitute reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration for the use of the Prepetition Collateral (including the Prepetition Secured Parties’ Cash Collateral); provided that nothing in this Interim Order or the DIP Documents shall (x) be construed as the affirmative consent by any of the Prepetition Secured Parties for the use of Prepetition Secured Parties’ Prepetition Collateral other than on the terms set forth in this Interim Order or to the extent such consent has been or will be given, (y) be construed as a consent by any party to the terms of any other financing or any other lien encumbering the Prepetition Collateral (whether senior, pari passu or junior), or (z) prejudice, limit, or otherwise impair the rights of any of the Prepetition Secured Parties, subject to any applicable provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, to seek new, different or additional adequate protection or assert the interests of any of the Prepetition Secured Parties, and the rights of any other party in interest to object to such relief are hereby preserved.

(x) Each of the Prepetition Secured Parties shall be entitled to all of the rights and benefits of section 552(b) of the Bankruptcy Code and the “equities of the case” exception under section 552(b) of the Bankruptcy Code shall not apply to the Prepetition Secured Parties with respect to proceeds, product, offspring, or profits with respect to any of the Prepetition Collateral; provided that, with respect to the Prepetition Collateral, the foregoing shall be without prejudice to the terms of the Final Order with respect to the period from and after entry of the Final Order.

H. Immediate Entry. The Debtors have requested immediate entry of this Interim Order pursuant to Bankruptcy Rules 4001(b)(2) and 4001(c)(2) and the Bankruptcy Local Rules. Absent granting the relief set forth in this Interim Order, the Debtors’ estates will be immediately and irreparably harmed. Consummation of the DIP Financing and the use of Prepetition Collateral (including the Prepetition Secured Parties’ Cash Collateral) in accordance with this Interim Order and the DIP Documents are therefore in the best interests of the Debtors’ estates and consistent with the Debtors’ exercise of their fiduciary duties. Sufficient cause exists for immediate entry of this Interim Order pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 4001(b)(2) and (c)(2) and the Bankruptcy Local Rules. The DIP Motion and this Interim Order comply with the requirements of Bankruptcy Local Rule 4001-1(b).

I. Permitted Prior Liens; Continuation of Prepetition Liens. Nothing herein shall constitute a finding or ruling by this Court that any alleged Prepetition Credit Facility Permitted Prior Lien is valid, senior, enforceable, prior, perfected, or non-avoidable. Moreover, nothing herein shall prejudice the rights of any party-in-interest, including, but not limited to, the Debtors, each of the DIP Secured Parties, each of the Prepetition Secured Parties, or a Creditors’ Committee (if appointed), to challenge the validity, priority, enforceability, seniority, avoidability, perfection, or extent of any alleged Prepetition Credit Facility Permitted Prior Lien and/or security interests. The right of a seller of goods to reclaim such goods under section 546(c) of the Bankruptcy Code is not a Prepetition Credit Facility Permitted Prior Lien and is expressly subject to the DIP Liens.

Based upon the foregoing findings and conclusions, the DIP Motion and the record before the Court with respect to the DIP Motion, and after due consideration and good and sufficient cause appearing therefor,

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT:

1. Interim Financing Approved. The DIP Motion is granted as set forth in this Interim Order, the interim DIP Financing described herein is authorized and approved, and the use of the Prepetition Collateral on an interim basis is authorized, in each case subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the DIP Documents and this Interim Order. All objections to this Interim Order to the extent not withdrawn, waived, settled, or resolved are hereby denied and overruled.

2. Authorization of the DIP Financing and the DIP Documents.

(a) The Debtors are hereby authorized to execute, deliver, enter into and, as applicable, perform all of their obligations in accordance with, and subject to the terms of this Interim Order and the DIP Documents, and take such other and further actions as may be necessary, appropriate or desirable in connection therewith. The Borrower is hereby authorized to borrow up to $50 million under the DIP Term Loan Facility pursuant to, and for the purposes permitted under, the DIP Credit Agreement and this Interim Order, and the DIP Guarantors are hereby authorized to jointly and severally guaranty the DIP Obligations, in each case, in accordance with this Interim Order and the DIP Documents, and, subject to entry of the Final Order, the Borrower shall be authorized to borrow an additional $50 million, which shall be used for the purposes permitted under the DIP Documents, including, to provide working capital for the Debtors and for general corporate purposes and to pay interest, fees, and expenses, in each case, in accordance with the Final Order and the DIP Documents, and which additional borrowings shall also be jointly and severally guaranteed by the DIP Guarantors. Any and all fees, costs, and expenses paid prior to the Petition Date by any of the Debtors to the DIP Secured Parties in connection with or with respect to the DIP Term Loan Facility, are hereby approved in full and shall not be subject to avoidance, disgorgement or any similar form of recovery by the Debtors or any other person.

(b) In furtherance of the foregoing and without further approval of this Court, each Debtor is authorized and directed to perform all acts, to make, execute and deliver all instruments, certificates, and agreements and documents (including the execution or recordation of security agreements, mortgages, deeds of trust (if applicable), and financing statements), and to pay all fees in connection with or that may be reasonably required, necessary, or desirable for the Debtors’ performance of their obligations under or related to the DIP Financing, including:

(i)

the execution and delivery of, and performance under, each of the DIP Documents;

(ii)

the execution and delivery of, and performance under, one or more amendments, waivers, consents or other modifications to and under the DIP Documents, in each case, in such form as the Debtors’ and the DIP Lenders may agree, it being understood that no further approval of this Court shall be required for any authorizations, amendments, waivers, consents, or other modifications to and under the DIP Documents (and any fees and other expenses (including attorneys’, accountants’, appraisers’ and financial advisors’ fees), amounts, charges, costs, indemnities, and other obligations paid in connection therewith) that do not (A) shorten the maturity of the extensions of credit thereunder or increase the aggregate commitments or the rate of interest payable thereunder or (B) increase existing fees or add new fees thereunder (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any amendment, consent or waiver fee);

(iii)

the non-refundable payment to the DIP Secured Parties, as the case may be, of all reasonable and documented fees, including, but only as applicable, unused facility fees, amendment fees, prepayment premiums, early termination fees, servicing fees, audit fees, liquidator fees, structuring fees, administrative agent’s or collateral agent’s fees, upfront fees, closing fees, commitment fees, exit fees, backstop fees, agency fees, and/or reasonable professional fees (which fees shall be irrevocable, and shall be deemed to have been, approved upon entry of this Interim Order, whether or not such fees arose before or after the Petition Date, and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, and shall not in any case be subject to any contest, attack, rejection, recoupment, reduction, defense, counterclaim, offset, subordination, recharacterization, avoidance or other claim, cause of action or other challenge of any nature under the Bankruptcy Code, under applicable non-bankruptcy law or otherwise) and any amounts payable (or that may become payable) in respect of the indemnification obligations, in each case referred to in the DIP Documents and the costs and expenses as may be due from time to time, including reasonable and documented fees and expenses of the professionals retained by any of DIP Secured Parties (including Xxxxx Xxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP and such other advisors as permitted under the DIP Documents), in each case, as provided for in the DIP Documents and this Interim Order, without the need to file retention motions or fee applications or to provide notice to any part; provided that, solely with respect to fees and expenses of professionals incurred following the Closing Date (as defined in the DIP Credit Agreement), (the “DIP Professional Fees”) such payment shall be subject to the review procedures set forth in paragraph 1(c); and

(iv)

the performance of all other acts necessary, appropriate, or desirable under or in connection with the DIP Documents.

3. DIP Obligations. Upon execution and delivery of the DIP Documents, (a) the DIP Documents shall constitute valid, binding and non-avoidable obligations of the Debtors, enforceable against each of the Debtors and their estates in accordance with the terms of the DIP Documents and this Interim Order, and any successors thereto, including any trustee appointed in the Chapter 11 Cases, or in any case under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code upon the conversion of any of the Chapter 11 Cases, or in any other proceedings superseding or related to any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Successor Cases”). Upon execution and delivery of the DIP Documents, the DIP Obligations will include all loans and any other indebtedness or obligations, contingent or absolute, which may now or from time to time be owing by any of the Debtors to the DIP Agent or any of the DIP Lenders, in each case, under, or secured by, the DIP Documents or this Interim Order, including the Obligations under, and as defined in the DIP Credit Agreement, and all principal, accrued interest, costs, fees, expenses, and other amounts under the DIP Documents. The Debtors shall be jointly and severally liable for the DIP Obligations. The DIP Obligations shall be due and payable, without notice or demand, and the use of DIP Collateral that constitutes cash collateral pursuant to section 363(a) of the Bankruptcy Code shall automatically cease, as set forth in the DIP Documents, on the Termination Declaration Date (as defined below) or the occurrence of any event or condition set forth in paragraph 1(b) of this Interim Order, except as provided in paragraph 17 herein. No obligation, payment, transfer, or grant of collateral security hereunder or under the DIP Documents (including any DIP Obligation or DIP Liens (as defined herein)), shall be limited, stayed, restrained, voidable, avoidable, or recoverable, under the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable law (including under sections 502(d), 506(c), 544, 547 to 550, and 552 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state UCC, Uniform Voidable Transactions Act, Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, or similar statute or common law), or subject to any avoidance, reduction, setoff, recoupment, offset, recharacterization, subordination (whether equitable, contractual, or otherwise), counterclaim, cross-claim, defense, or any other challenge under the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable law or regulation by any person or entity.

4. [Reserved]

5. [Reserved]

6. Carve Out.

(a) Carve Out. As used in this Interim Order, the “Carve Out” means the sum of (i) all fees required to be paid to the Clerk of the Court and to the Office of the United States Trustee under section 1930(a) of title 28 of the United States Code plus interest at the statutory rate pursuant to 31 U.S.C. § 3717 (without regard to the notice set forth in (iii) below); (ii) all reasonable fees and expenses up to $75,000 incurred by a trustee under section 726(b) of the Bankruptcy Code (without regard to the notice set forth in (iii) below); (iii) to the extent allowed at any time, whether by interim order, procedural order, or otherwise, all unpaid fees and expenses (the “Allowed Professional Fees”) incurred by persons or firms retained by the Debtors pursuant to section 327, 328, or 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (the “Debtor Professionals”) and the Creditors’ Committee (if appointed), pursuant to section 328 or 1103 of the Bankruptcy Code, (the “Committee Professionals” and, together with the Debtor Professionals, the “Professional Persons”) at any time before or on the first business day following delivery by the DIP Agent of a Carve Out Trigger Notice (as defined below), whether allowed by the Court prior to or after delivery of a Carve Out Trigger Notice; and (iv) Allowed Professional Fees of Professional Persons in an aggregate amount not to exceed $5,000,000 incurred after the first business day following delivery by the DIP Agent of the Carve Out Trigger Notice, to the extent allowed at any time, whether by interim order, procedural order, or otherwise (the amounts set forth in this clause (iv) being the “Post‑Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap”). For purposes of the foregoing, “Carve Out Trigger Notice” shall mean a written notice delivered by email (or other electronic means) by the DIP Agent, at the direction of the Required DIP Lenders, to the Debtors, their lead restructuring counsel, the First Lien Advisors, the U.S. Trustee, and counsel to the Creditors’ Committee (if appointed), which notice may be delivered following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default (as defined in the DIP Credit Agreement) and acceleration of the DIP Obligations under the DIP Term Loan Facility, stating that the Post‑Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap has been invoked.

(b) Carve Out Reserves. On the day on which a Carve Out Trigger Notice is delivered by the DIP Agent to the Debtors with a copy to counsel to the Creditors’ Committee (if appointed) (the “Termination Declaration Date”), the Carve Out Trigger Notice shall (i) be deemed a draw request and notice of borrowing by the Debtors for Loans (as defined in the DIP Credit Agreement) under the DIP Term Loan Facility (on a pro rata basis based on the then outstanding Commitments (as defined in the DIP Credit Agreement)), in an amount equal to the then unpaid amounts of the Allowed Professional Fees (any such amounts actually advanced shall constitute Loans) and (ii) also constitute a demand to the Debtors to utilize all cash on hand as of such date and any available cash thereafter held by any Debtor to fund a reserve in an amount equal to the then unpaid amounts of the Allowed Professional Fees. The Debtors shall deposit and hold such amounts in a segregated account at the DIP Agent in trust to pay such then unpaid Allowed Professional Fees (the “Pre-Carve Out Trigger Notice Reserve”) prior to any and all other claims. On the Termination Declaration Date, the Carve Out Trigger Notice shall also (i) be deemed a request by the Debtors for Loans under the DIP Term Loan Facility (on a pro rata basis based on the then outstanding Commitments), in an amount equal to the Post‑Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap (any such amounts actually advanced shall constitute Loans) and (ii) also constitute a demand to the Debtors to utilize all cash on hand as of such date and any available cash thereafter held by any Debtor, after funding the Pre-Carve Out Trigger Notice Reserve, to fund a reserve in an amount equal to the Post‑Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap. The Debtors shall deposit and hold such amounts in a segregated account at the DIP Agent in trust to pay such Allowed Professional Fees benefiting from the Post-Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap (the “Post‑Carve Out Trigger Notice Reserve” and, together with the Pre-Carve Out Trigger Notice Reserve, the “Carve Out Reserves”) prior to any and all other claims. On the first business day after the DIP Agent delivers the Carve Out Trigger Notice, notwithstanding anything in the DIP Credit Agreement to the contrary, including with respect to the existence of a Default (as defined in the DIP Credit Agreement) or Event of Default, the failure of the Debtors to satisfy any or all of the conditions precedent for Loans under the DIP Term Loan Facility, any termination of the Commitments following an Event of Default, or the occurrence of the Maturity Date, each DIP Lender with an outstanding Commitment (on a pro rata basis based on the then outstanding Commitments) shall make available to the DIP Agent such DIP Lender’s pro rata share with respect to such borrowing in accordance with the DIP Term Loan Facility. All funds in the Pre-Carve Out Trigger Notice Reserve shall be used first to pay the obligations set forth in clauses (i) through (iii) of the definition of Carve Out set forth above (the “Pre-Carve Out Amounts”), but not, for the avoidance of doubt, the Post-Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap, until paid in full, and then, to the extent the Pre‑Carve Out Trigger Notice Reserve has not been reduced to zero, to pay the DIP Agent for its own benefit and the benefit of the DIP Secured Parties, unless the DIP Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, in cash, and all Commitments have been terminated, in which case any such excess shall be paid to the Prepetition Secured Parties in accordance with their rights and priorities as of the Petition Date. All funds in the Post-Carve Out Trigger Notice Reserve shall be used first to pay the obligations set forth in clause (iv) of the definition of Carve Out set forth above (the “Post-Carve Out Amounts”), and then, to the extent the Post‑Carve Out Trigger Notice Reserve has not been reduced to zero, to pay the DIP Agent for its own benefit and the benefit of the DIP Secured Parties, unless the DIP Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, in cash, and all Commitments have been terminated, in which case any such excess shall be paid to the Prepetition Secured Parties in accordance with their rights and priorities as of the Petition Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the DIP Documents, Prepetition Loan Documents, or this Interim Order, if either of the Carve Out Reserves is not funded in full in the amounts set forth in this paragraph 6(b), then, any excess funds in one of the Carve Out Reserves following the payment of the Pre-Carve Out Amounts and Post‑Carve Out Amounts, respectively, shall be used to fund the other Carve Out Reserve, up to the applicable amount set forth in this paragraph 6(b), prior to making any payments to the DIP Agent or the Prepetition Secured Parties, as applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the DIP Documents, Prepetition Loan Documents, or this Interim Order, following delivery of a Carve Out Trigger Notice, the DIP Agent and the Prepetition Agents shall not sweep or foreclose on cash (including cash received as a result of the sale or other disposition of any assets) of the Debtors until the Carve Out Reserves have been fully funded, but the DIP Liens (on a first priority basis) and the Adequate Protection Liens (on a second priority basis) shall attach to any residual interest in the Carve Out Reserves (provided that the DIP Liens shall not attach to any residual interest in the Carve Out Reserves with respect to any Prepetition Collateral held in the Carve Out Reserves) (and such liens shall be automatically valid and perfected), with any excess paid to the DIP Agent for application in accordance with the DIP Documents. Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Interim Order, (i) disbursements by the Debtors from the Carve Out Reserves shall not constitute Loans (as defined in the DIP Credit Agreement) or increase or reduce the DIP Obligations, (ii) the failure of the Carve Out Reserves to satisfy in full the Allowed Professional Fees shall not affect the priority of the Carve Out, and (iii) in no way shall the Approved Budget (as defined in the DIP Credit Agreement), Carve Out, Post-Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap, Carve Out Reserves, or any of the foregoing be construed as a cap or limitation on the amount of the Allowed Professional Fees due and payable by the Debtors. For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Interim Order, the DIP Documents, or in any Prepetition Loan Documents, the Carve Out shall be senior to all liens and claims securing the DIP Term Loan Facility, the Prepetition Credit Facility Liens, the Credit Facility Adequate Protection Liens, and the Credit Facility 507(b) Claims, and any and all other forms of adequate protection, liens, or claims securing the DIP Obligations or the Prepetition Credit Facility Debt. Notwithstanding anything in this Interim Order, in no event shall (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Loans available under the DIP Credit Agreement or pursuant to this Interim Order (after giving effect to all amounts requested, and including, for the avoidance of doubt, any funding of the Carve Out Reserves and any Loans repaid prior to the date of determination) exceed the total Commitments, or (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the Loans from any Lender to, or for the benefit of, the Borrower exceed such Lender’s Commitment.

(c) Payment of Allowed Professional Fees Prior to the Termination Declaration Date. Any payment or reimbursement made prior to the occurrence of the Termination Declaration Date in respect of any Allowed Professional Fees shall not reduce the Carve Out.

(d) No Direct Obligation to Pay Allowed Professional Fees. None of the DIP Secured Parties, or the Prepetition Secured Parties shall be responsible for the payment or reimbursement of any fees or disbursements of any Professional Person incurred in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases or any Successor Cases under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code. Nothing in this Interim Order or otherwise shall be construed to obligate the DIP Secured Parties or the Prepetition Secured Parties, in any way, to pay compensation to, or to reimburse expenses of, any Professional Person or to guarantee that the Debtors have sufficient funds to pay such compensation or reimbursement.

(e) Payment of Carve Out On or After the Termination Declaration Date. Any payment or reimbursement made on or after the occurrence of the Termination Declaration Date in respect of any Allowed Professional Fees shall permanently reduce the Carve Out on a dollar-for-dollar basis. Any funding of the Carve Out from proceeds of the DIP Term Loan Facility shall be added to, and made a part of, the DIP Obligations secured by the DIP Collateral and shall be otherwise entitled to the protections granted under this Interim Order, the DIP Documents, the Bankruptcy Code, and applicable law.

7. DIP Superpriority Claims. Pursuant to section 364(c)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, all of the DIP Obligations shall constitute allowed superpriority administrative expense claims against the Debtors (without the need to file any proof of claim) with priority over any and all claims against the Debtors, now existing or hereafter arising, of any kind whatsoever, including all administrative expenses of the kind specified in sections 503(b) and 507(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, and any and all administrative expenses or other claims arising under sections 105, 326, 328, 330, 331, 365, 503(b), 507(a), 507(b), 726, 1113, or 1114 of the Bankruptcy Code (including the Adequate Protection Obligations), whether or not such expenses or claims may become secured by a judgment lien or other non-consensual lien, levy or attachment, which allowed claims (the “DIP Superpriority Claims”) shall for purposes of section 1129(a)(9)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code be considered administrative expenses allowed under section 503(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, and which DIP Superpriority Claims shall be payable from and have recourse to all prepetition and postpetition property of the Debtors (subject to any liens on such property, including the Prepetition Credit Facility Liens, ranking senior to any liens on such property securing the DIP Superpriority Claims) and all proceeds thereof (excluding claims and causes of action under sections 502(d), 544, 545, 547, 548 and 550 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any other avoidance actions under the Bankruptcy Code or applicable state-law equivalents (“Avoidance Actions”), but including, subject to entry of the Final Order, any proceeds or property recovered, unencumbered or otherwise, from Avoidance Actions, whether by judgment, settlement or otherwise (“Avoidance Proceeds”)) in accordance with the DIP Documents and this Interim Order, subject only to (a) any valid, perfected, non-avoidable liens on such property and (b) the Carve Out. The DIP Superpriority Claims shall be entitled to the full protection of section 364(e) of the Bankruptcy Code including in the event that this Interim Order or any provision hereof is vacated, reversed or modified, on appeal or otherwise. The DIP Superpriority Claims shall be senior to the Credit Facility 507(b) Claims.

8. DIP Liens.

(a) DIP Liens. As security for the DIP Obligations, effective and perfected upon the date of this Interim Order and without the necessity of the execution, recordation, or filing by the Debtors of mortgages, deeds of trust, security agreements, control agreements, pledge agreements, financing statements, notation of certificates of title for titled goods, or other similar documents, or the possession or control by the DIP Agent of, or over, any assets, security interests and liens are hereby granted to the DIP Agent for the benefit of the DIP Secured Parties on all prepetition and postpetition property of the Debtors, including the Principal DIP Collateral Properties (as defined below), the Principal DIP Pledged Equity,⁶ any and all cash of the Debtors and any investment of such cash, inventory, accounts receivable, other rights to payment whether arising before or after the Petition Date, contracts, properties, plants, fixtures, machinery, equipment, general intangibles, documents, instruments, securities, chattel paper, interests in leaseholds, real properties, deposit accounts, patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade names, rights under license agreements and other intellectual property, capital stock of subsidiaries, wherever located, and the proceeds, products, rents and profits of the foregoing, whether arising under section 552(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, whether existing on the Petition Date or thereafter acquired, other than: (u) the Borrower’s equity interests in the seven X’Xxxxxx Joint Ventures listed on Schedule E hereto, (v) the outparcels listed on Schedule F hereto, (w) the Prepetition Collateral, (x) the Excluded Assets (as defined in the DIP Credit Agreement), (y) the Debtors’ cash and cash equivalents as of the Petition Date that are not held by or under the control of the Principal DIP Grantors⁷⁸ and (z) Avoidance Actions (but including, subject to entry of the Final Order, Avoidance Proceeds) (such property collectively, the “DIP Collateral”), subject only to the payment of the Carve Out (all such liens and security interests granted to the DIP Agent, for the benefit of the DIP Secured Parties, pursuant to this Interim Order and the DIP Documents, the “DIP Liens”), as follows:

(iii)

Liens Senior to Other Liens. Aside from the liens described in (ii) above, the DIP Liens shall be senior to any other liens on the DIP Collateral and shall not be (x) subject or subordinate to or made pari passu with (1) any lien or security interest that is avoided and preserved for the benefit of the Debtors and their estates under section 551 of the Bankruptcy Code, (2) unless otherwise provided for in the DIP Documents or in this Interim Order, any liens or security interests arising after the Petition Date, including any liens or security interests granted in favor of any federal, state, municipal, or other governmental unit (including any regulatory body), commission, board or court for any liability of the Debtors, or (3) any intercompany or affiliate liens of the Debtors or their affiliates or security interests of the Debtors or their affiliates or (y) subordinated to or made pari passu with any other lien or security interest under section 363 or 364 of the Bankruptcy Code granted on or after the date hereof.

9. Protection of DIP Lenders’ Rights.

(a) So long as there are any DIP Obligations outstanding or the DIP Lenders have any outstanding DIP Commitments under, and as defined in, the DIP Documents (the “DIP Commitments”), the Prepetition Lenders shall: (i) have no right to and shall take no action to foreclose upon, or recover in connection with, the liens granted pursuant to this Interim Order, or otherwise seek to exercise or enforce any rights or remedies against the DIP Collateral; (ii) be deemed to have consented (to the extent any consent is required) to any transfer, disposition or sale of, or release of liens on, such DIP Collateral in connection with an exercise of remedies by the DIP Agent (but not any proceeds of such transfer, disposition or sale to the extent remaining after payment in cash in full of the DIP Obligations (other than contingent obligations for which no claim has then been asserted) and termination of the DIP Commitments) to the extent such transfer, disposition, sale or release is authorized pursuant to the DIP Documents; (iii) not file any further financing statements, trademark filings, copyright filings, mortgages, deeds of trust, notices of lien or similar instruments, or otherwise take any action to perfect their security interests in such DIP Collateral unless, solely as to this clause (iii), the DIP Agent or the DIP Lenders file financing statements or other documents to perfect the liens granted pursuant to this Interim Order, or as may be required by applicable state law to continue the perfection of valid and non-avoidable liens or security interests as of the Petition Date; provided, that nothing herein shall prevent any of the Prepetition Secured Parties to file financing statements or other documents in connection with the appointment of any successor administrative or collateral agent under any of the Prepetition Credit Agreements, and (iv) at the request of the DIP Agent, deliver or cause to be delivered, at the DIP Loan Parties’ cost and expense, any termination statements, releases and/or assignments in favor of each of the DIP Secured Parties or other documents necessary to effectuate and/or evidence the release, termination and/or assignment of liens on any portion of such DIP Collateral subject to any sale in connection with the exercise of remedies by the DIP Agent or court-approved disposition.

(b) Any proceeds of DIP Collateral subject to the DIP Liens received by any Prepetition Secured Party (other than as contemplated by this Order, including adequate protection payments), whether in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy (including setoff), by mistake or otherwise shall be segregated and held in trust for the benefit of and forthwith paid over to the DIP Agent for the benefit of the DIP Secured Parties in the same form as received, with any necessary endorsements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the rights of setoff and first-priority security interests of the financial institutions providing cash management services (solely to the extent related to cash management obligations and as governed by the cash management order entered in these Chapter 11 Cases) are preserved.

(c) The automatic stay provisions of section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code are hereby modified to the extent necessary to permit the DIP Agent, acting at the direction of the Requisite Lenders (as defined in the DIP Credit Agreement) (the “Required DIP Lenders”), to take any or all of the following actions, at the same or different times, in each case without further order or application of the Court and immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default or the Termination Declaration Date: (A) deliver a notice of an Event of Default to the Debtors; (B) declare the termination, reduction or restriction of any further DIP Commitment (including any commitment to make loans under the DIP Documents) to the extent any such DIP Commitment remains; (C) declare the termination of the DIP Documents as to any future liability or obligation of the DIP Agent and the DIP Lenders (but, for the avoidance of doubt, without affecting any of the DIP Liens or the DIP Obligations); and (D) declare all applicable DIP Obligations to be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived by the Debtor, and (E) the termination of the DIP Secured Parties’ consent to the Debtors’ right to use cash collateral, that is DIP Collateral pursuant to Section 363(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, subject to the Debtors’ right to seek nonconsensual use of such DIP Collateral; provided, however, that prior to the enforcement of liens or exercise of remedies with respect to the DIP Collateral, the DIP Agent, shall provide the Debtors and their lead restructuring counsel with notice (with a copy to the Creditors’ Committee (if appointed), and the U.S. Trustee), and file such notice on the docket in the Case and request an emergency hearing (the “Stay Relief Hearing”) upon no less than five (5) business days’ notice (unless the Debtors and DIP Agent agree to request that the Court conduct the Stay Relief Hearing on shorter notice) to determine whether an Event of Default or the Termination Declaration Date has occurred, and the Debtors shall not object to the fact that the Stay Relief Hearing is being held on such shortened notice. Until the Stay Relief Hearing, the Debtors shall be permitted to use the Prepetition Secured Parties’ Cash Collateral to pay payroll and other administrative expenses to keep the business of the Debtors operating and maximize value of the DIP Collateral and in accordance with the Approved Budget attached hereto as Exhibit 1. Following the Stay Relief Hearing, and upon the Court’s determination that an Event of Default or the Termination Declaration Event has occurred, the Court may fashion an appropriate remedy including, whether or not the maturity of any of the DIP Obligations shall have been accelerated, authorizing the DIP Agent to proceed to protect, enforce, and exercise all other rights and remedies provided for in the DIP Documents and under applicable law, including by suit in equity, action at law or other appropriate proceeding, including for specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained in any DIP Document or any instrument pursuant to which the DIP Obligations are evidenced, and, if any amount shall have become due, by declaration or otherwise, proceed to enforce the payment thereof or any other legal or equitable right of any of the DIP Secured Parties. This Court shall retain exclusive jurisdiction to hear and resolve any disputes and enter any orders required by the provisions of this paragraph 9 and relating to the application, re-imposition or continuance of the Automatic Stay as provided hereunder.

(d) No rights, protections or remedies of each of the DIP Secured Parties granted by the provisions of this Interim Order or the DIP Documents shall be limited, modified or impaired in any way by: (i) any actual or purported withdrawal of the consent of any party to the Debtors’ authority to continue to use Prepetition Grantors’ Prepetition Collateral; or (ii) the terms of any other order or stipulation related to the Debtors’ continued use of Prepetition Grantors’ Prepetition Collateral or the provision of adequate protection to any party.

(e) No Marshaling. In no event shall the DIP Secured Parties or the Prepetition Secured Parties be subject to the equitable doctrine of “marshaling” or any similar doctrine with respect to the DIP Collateral or the DIP Obligations; provided that, with respect to the Prepetition Collateral, the foregoing shall be without prejudice to the terms of the Final Order with respect to the period from and after entry of the Final Order.

10. Limitation on Charging Expenses Against Collateral. Except to the extent of the Carve Out, no costs or expenses of administration of the Chapter 11 Cases or any future proceeding that may result therefrom, including liquidation in bankruptcy or other proceedings under the Bankruptcy Code, shall be charged against or recovered from the Prepetition Collateral or the DIP Collateral pursuant to section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar principle of law, without the prior written consent of, with respect to the Prepetition Collateral, the applicable Prepetition Agent(s) acting at the direction of the applicable Prepetition Lenders in accordance with the Prepetition Loan Documents and, with respect to the DIP Collateral, the DIP Agent acting at the direction of the Required DIP Lenders in accordance with the DIP Documents, and no such consent shall be implied from any other action, inaction, or acquiescence by any of the Prepetition Secured Parties or any of the DIP Secured Parties, and nothing contained in this Interim Order shall be deemed to be a consent by any Prepetition Secured Party or any DIP Secured Party to any charge, lien, assessment or claim against the DIP Collateral under section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise; provided that, with respect to the Prepetition Collateral, the foregoing shall be without prejudice to the terms of the Final Order with respect to the period from and after entry of the Final Order.

11. Payments Free and Clear. Subject to the Carve Out, any and all payments or proceeds remitted by any DIP Secured Party or any Prepetition Secured Party pursuant to the provisions of this Interim Order, the Final Order (if and when entered), any subsequent order of the Court, or the DIP Documents shall be irrevocable, received free and clear of any claim, charge, assessment or other liability, including any such claim or charge arising out of or based on, directly or indirectly, section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, whether asserted or assessed by, through or on behalf of the Debtors, or section 552(b) of the Bankruptcy Code.

12. Use of Prepetition Secured Parties’ Prepetition Collateral. The Prepetition Grantors are hereby authorized, subject to the terms and conditions of this Interim Order, to use all of the Prepetition Secured Parties’ Prepetition Collateral; provided that the Prepetition Secured Parties are granted the adequate protection as hereinafter set forth.

13. Disposition of DIP Collateral. The Debtors shall not sell, transfer, lease, encumber, or otherwise dispose of any portion of the Principal DIP Collateral Properties, the Principal DIP Pledged Equity, or any other DIP Collateral except in accordance with the DIP Documents.

14. Adequate Protection of Prepetition Secured Parties. The Prepetition Secured Parties are entitled, pursuant to sections 361, 362, 363(e) and 507 of the Bankruptcy Code, to adequate protection of their respective interests in all Prepetition Collateral (including the Prepetition Secured Parties’ Cash Collateral) in an amount equal to the aggregate diminution in the value of the Prepetition Secured Parties’ respective interests in the Prepetition Collateral (including the Prepetition Secured Parties’ Cash Collateral) from and after the Petition Date, if any, for any reason provided for under the Bankruptcy Code, including any diminution resulting from the sale, lease or use by the Debtors of the Prepetition Collateral, the payment of any amounts under the Carve Out or pursuant to this Interim Order or any other order of the Court or provision of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, and the imposition of the automatic stay (such amount with respect to the 2018 Credit Facility Secured Parties, the “2018 Credit Facility Adequate Protection Claim”; such amount with respect to the 2015 Credit Facility, the “2015 Credit Facility Adequate Protection Claim”; and such amount with respect to the Weberstown Term Loan Facility, the “Weberstown Adequate Protection Claim”). In consideration of the foregoing, the Prepetition Grantors are authorized to and hereby grant the following to the Prepetition Agents (collectively, the “Adequate Protection Obligations”):

(a) Credit Facility Adequate Protection Liens. (i) Each of (x) the 2018 Credit Facility Agent, for itself and for the benefit of the 2018 Credit Facility Secured Parties, (y) the 2015 Credit Facility Agent, for itself and for the benefit of the 2015 Credit Facility Secured Parties, and (z) the Weberstown Term Loan Agent, for itself and for the benefit of the Weberstown Term Loan Facility Secured Parties, is hereby granted (effective and perfected upon the date of this Interim Order and without the necessity of the execution of any mortgages, deeds of trust, security agreements, pledge agreements, financing statements or other agreements), on a pari passu basis, a valid, perfected replacement security interest in and lien upon all DIP Collateral, in each case, subject and subordinate only to (i) the DIP Liens and any liens to which the DIP Liens are junior and (ii) and the Carve Out, to secure the 2018 Credit Facility Adequate Protection Claim, 2015 Credit Facility Adequate Protection Claim, and Weberstown Adequate Protection Claims, respectively (each as defined below) (collectively, the “Credit Facility Adequate Protection Liens”).

(b) Credit Facility 507(b) Claims. (i) Each of (x) the 2018 Credit Facility Agent, for itself and for the benefit of the 2018 Credit Facility Secured Parties, (y) the 2015 Credit Facility Agent, for itself and for the benefit of the 2015 Credit Facility Secured Parties, and (z) the Weberstown Term Loan Agent, for itself and for the benefit of the Weberstown Term Loan Facility Secured Parties, is hereby granted, on a pari passu basis, an allowed superpriority administrative expense claim as provided for in section 507(b) of the Bankruptcy Code in the amount of the 2018 Credit Facility Adequate Protection Claim, 2015 Credit Facility Adequate Protection Claim, and Weberstown Adequate Protection Claim, respectively, against each of the Prepetition Grantors with priority in payment over any and all administrative expenses of the kind specified or ordered pursuant to any provision of the Bankruptcy Code (the “Credit Facility 507(b) Claims”), which Credit Facility 507(b) Claims shall be payable from and have recourse to all prepetition and postpetition property of the Borrower and the Prepetition Grantors and all proceeds thereof, excluding Avoidance Actions (but including, subject to entry of the Final Order, Avoidance Proceeds). The Credit Facility 507(b) Claims shall be subject and subordinate only to (a) DIP Superpriority Claims, (b) DIP Liens, (c) Prepetition Credit Facility Permitted Prior Liens, (d) any valid, perfected, non‑avoidable liens on such property and the proceeds thereof, and (e) the Carve Out. For the avoidance of doubt, the Credit Facility 507(b) Claims shall not be payable from the DIP Collateral unless and until the DIP Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been asserted) have indefeasibly been paid in cash in full and all DIP Commitments have been terminated.

(c) Credit Facility Secured Parties Fees and Expenses. In each case, without duplication of amounts required to be paid pursuant to the DIP Documents, (i) the Debtors are authorized and directed to pay in cash without the necessity of filing formal fee applications or compliance with the U.S. Trustee’s fee guidelines all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket professional fees, expenses and disbursements arising before and after the Petition Date of (A) the 2018 Credit Facility Agent, the 2015 Credit Facility Loan Agent, and the Weberstown Term Loan Agent, including of Xxxxx Xxxxx LLP as counsel to GLAS USA LLC and GLAS Americas LLC, (B) Xxxxx Xxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP, Evercore Group LLC, Raider Hill Advisors, L.L.C. and Agora Advisors, LLC, advisors to Prepetition Lender SVP, LLC and its affiliated funds (“SVP”) and (C) Wachtell, Lipton, Xxxxx & Xxxx LLP and PJT Partners, Inc. as advisors to the ad hoc group of Prepetition Lenders; ((A) through (C), collectively, the “First Lien Advisors”) and (ii) the Debtors shall pay in cash all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket professional fees, expenses and disbursements of the First Lien Advisors that will accrue on or after the Petition Date. The payment of the fees, expenses and disbursements set forth in clause (ii) of the foregoing sentence and the DIP Professional Fees shall be made within ten (10) days (which time period may be extended by the applicable professional) after the receipt by the Debtors, the U.S. Trustee and the Creditors’ Committee, if appointed (the “Review Period”) of invoices therefor without the necessity of filing formal fee applications or compliance with the U.S. Trustee’s fee guidelines. Such invoices provided to the Debtors, the U.S. Trustee and, as applicable, the Creditors’ Committee, shall be in summary format with reasonably sufficient detail such that the nature and extent of the services can be evaluated but which shall not be required to contain time entries and which may be redacted or modified to the extent necessary to delete any information subject to the attorney-client privilege, any information constituting attorney work product, or any other confidential information, and the provision of such invoices shall not constitute any waiver of the attorney client privilege or of any benefits of the attorney work product doctrine. Any objections raised by the Debtors, the U.S. Trustee or a Creditors’ Committee with respect to such invoices must be in writing and state with particularity the grounds therefor and must be submitted to the applicable professional so as to be actually received prior to the expiration of the Review Period. Following the Review Period, any such objection will be subject to resolution by the Court to the extent it remains unresolved. Pending such resolution, the undisputed portion of any such invoice will be paid promptly by the Debtors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Debtors are authorized and directed to pay on the Closing Date (as defined in the DIP Credit Agreement) all adequate protection fees and expenses incurred under this paragraph 1(c) on or prior to such date without the need for any applicable professional to first deliver a copy of its invoice or other supporting documentation.

(d) Adequate Protection Payments. Each of the Prepetition Agents, for the benefit of the applicable Prepetition Secured Parties, shall receive current payments in cash in an amount equal to interest accrued and accruing at the non-default base rate on account of the Prepetition Credit Facility Debt as set forth in the applicable respective Prepetition Loan Documents (without waiver of rights on behalf of any party to assert, or deny, the rights of the Prepetition Secured Parties to interest at the default rates provided for in the Prepetition Loan Documents) and on the respective payment dates provided therein, whether such interest accrued prior to or following the Petition Date; provided, that it is understood and agreed that such payments are being made as adequate protection of the secured portion of the Prepetition Credit Facilities.

(e) Financial Reporting.The Debtors shall provide the Prepetition Agents with financial and other reporting that is provided to the DIP Secured Parties in accordance with the DIP Documents; provided that such reporting obligations shall continue to remain in effect with respect to the Prepetition Secured Parties following any termination of the DIP Term Loan Facility.

15. Reservation of Rights of Prepetition Secured Parties. Under the circumstances and given that the above-described adequate protection is consistent with the Bankruptcy Code, including section 506(b) thereof, the Court finds that the adequate protection provided herein is reasonable and sufficient to protect the interests of the Prepetition Secured Parties; provided that each Prepetition Agent, at the direction of the requisite Prepetition Secured Parties, may request further or different adequate protection, subject to and consistent with the terms of the applicable Prepetition Loan Document and/or Intercreditor Agreement, and the Debtors or any other party in interest may contest any such request.

16. Perfection of DIP Liens and Adequate Protection Liens

(a) Without in any way limiting the automatically effective perfection of the DIP Liens granted pursuant to paragraph 8 hereof and the Credit Facility Adequate Protection Liens granted pursuant to paragraph 1(a) hereof, the DIP Secured Parties and the Prepetition Secured Parties, respectively, are hereby authorized, but not required, to file or record (and to execute in the name of the Debtors, as their true and lawful attorneys, with full power of substitution, to the maximum extent permitted by law) financing statements, mortgages (if applicable) notices of lien or similar instruments in any jurisdiction, to take possession of or control over cash or securities, or take any other action in order to validate and perfect the liens and security interests granted to them hereunder. Whether or not the DIP Secured Parties or the Prepetition Secured Parties shall, in their sole discretion, choose to file such financing statements, mortgages (if applicable), notices of lien or similar instruments, to take possession of or control over cash or securities, or otherwise confirm perfection of the liens and security interests granted to them hereunder, such liens and security interests shall be deemed valid, perfected, allowed, enforceable, non-avoidable and not subject to challenge, dispute or subordination, at the time and on the date of entry of this Interim Order. Upon the request of the DIP Agent, without any further consent of any party, the DIP Agent and the Debtors are authorized and directed to take, execute, deliver and file such instruments (in each case, without representation or warranty of any kind) to enable the DIP Agent to further validate, perfect, preserve and enforce the DIP Liens. All such documents will be deemed to have been recorded and filed as of the Petition Date.

(b) A certified copy of this Interim Order may, in the discretion of the DIP Agent, be filed with or recorded in filing or recording offices in addition to or in lieu of such financing statements, mortgages, deeds of trust, notices of lien or similar instruments, and all filing offices are hereby authorized and directed to accept such certified copy of this Interim Order for filing and/or recording, as applicable. The automatic stay of section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code shall be modified to the extent necessary to permit the DIP Agent to take all actions, as applicable, referenced in this subparagraph (b) and the immediately preceding subparagraph (a).

17. Preservation of Rights Granted Under this Interim Order.

(a) Other than the Carve Out and other claims and liens expressly granted by this Interim Order, no claim (including any intercompany claim) or lien having a priority senior to or pari passu with those granted by this Interim Order to the DIP Secured Parties or the Prepetition Secured Parties shall be permitted while any of the DIP Obligations or the Adequate Protection Obligations, respectively, remain outstanding. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Interim Order, (A) the DIP Superpriority Claims shall not be subject or junior to any intercompany or affiliate claims of the Debtors and (B) the DIP Liens and the Credit Facility Adequate Protection Liens shall not be: (i) subject or junior to any lien or security interest that is avoided and preserved for the benefit of the Debtors’ estates under section 551 of the Bankruptcy Code; (ii) subordinated to or made pari passu with any other lien or security interest, whether under section 364(d) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise; (iii) subordinated to or made pari passu with any liens arising after the Petition Date, including any liens or security interests granted in favor of any federal, state, municipal, or other domestic or foreign governmental unit (including any regulatory body), commission, board or court for any liability of the Debtors; or (iv) subject or junior to any intercompany or affiliate liens or security interests of the Debtors.

(b) The Debtors shall not seek, and it shall constitute an Event of Default and terminate the right of the Prepetition Grantors to use the Prepetition Collateral if any of the Debtors, without the prior written consent of the Prepetition Agents, seeks, proposes or supports (whether by way of motion or other pleadings filed with the Court or any other writing executed by the Debtors or by oral argument), or if there is entered or confirmed (in each case, as applicable), or if there occurs:

(i)

a failure of the Debtors to (x) observe or perform any of the material terms or provisions contained in this Interim Order (including the making of adequate protection payments) or (y) comply with any covenant or agreement in this Interim Order in any material respect; provided that such failure materially prejudices the interests of the Prepetition Secured Parties or the Prepetition Collateral;

(ii)

any modifications, amendments, reversal or extensions of this Interim Order in a manner adverse to the Prepetition Secured Parties;

(iii)

an order converting to a case under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code or dismissing any of the Chapter 11 Cases;

(iv)

an order appointing a chapter 11 trustee in the Chapter 11 Cases;

(v)

a plan of reorganization other than a plan that provides for the termination of the Commitments and payment in full in cash of the DIP Obligations, including payment of interest at the default base rate as set forth in the DIP Credit Agreement;

(vi)

the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Debtors (except to the extent permitted under the DIP Credit Agreement), which does not provide for the repayment in full in cash of all DIP Obligations (other than any contingent indemnification or expense reimbursement obligations for which no claim has been made);

(vii)

following the expiration of any notice or cure period as provided in the DIP Credit Agreement, the occurrence of any Event of Default (as defined in the DIP Credit Agreement), unless such Event of Default has been cured or waived or the DIP Agent or the Required DIP Lenders have agreed in writing with the Debtors not to exercise any further remedies; or

(viii)

an order appointing an examiner with enlarged powers in the Chapter 11 Cases (beyond those set forth in sections 1106(a)(3) and (4) of the Bankruptcy Code);

In the case of the occurrence of any event of default described above (an “Event of Default”), the Prepetition Agents, at the direction of the applicable Prepetition Lenders, shall be entitled to move to terminate the Prepetition Grantors’ rights to use the Prepetition Collateral on five (5) business days’ notice, subject to the Debtors’ right to seek nonconsensual use of such Prepetition Collateral in accordance with paragraph 9(c) of this Interim Order. Notwithstanding any order that may be entered dismissing any of the Chapter 11 Cases under section 1112 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise: (i) the DIP Superpriority Claims, the Credit Facility 507(b) Claims, the DIP Liens, and the Credit Facility Adequate Protection Liens shall continue in full force and effect and shall maintain their priorities as provided in this Interim Order until all DIP Obligations and Adequate Protection Obligations (other than contingent obligations for which no claim has been asserted) shall have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash (and that such DIP Superpriority Claims, Credit Facility 507(b) Claims, DIP Liens, and Credit Facility Adequate Protection Liens shall, notwithstanding such dismissal, remain binding on all parties in interest); (ii) the other rights granted by this Interim Order shall not be affected; and (iii) this Court shall retain jurisdiction, notwithstanding such dismissal, for the purposes of enforcing the claims, liens and security interests referred to in this paragraph and otherwise in this Interim Order.

(d) If any or all of the provisions of this Interim Order are hereafter reversed, modified, vacated or stayed, such reversal, modification, vacatur, or stay shall not affect: (i) the validity, priority, or enforceability of any DIP Obligations or Adequate Protection Obligations incurred prior to the actual receipt of written notice by the DIP Agent or the Prepetition Agents, as applicable, of the effective date of such reversal, modification, vacatur, or stay; or (ii) the validity, priority, or enforceability of the DIP Liens or the Credit Facility Adequate Protection Liens. Notwithstanding any such reversal, modification, vacatur, or stay of any use of any Prepetition Secured Parties’ Cash Collateral, DIP Obligations, DIP Liens, Adequate Protection Obligations or Credit Facility Adequate Protection Liens incurred by the Debtors to the DIP Secured Parties, or the Prepetition Secured Parties, as the case may be, prior to the actual receipt of written notice by the DIP Agent or the Prepetition Agents, as applicable, of the effective date of such reversal, modification, vacatur or stay shall be governed in all respects by the original provisions of this Interim Order, and the DIP Secured Parties and the Prepetition Secured Parties, as applicable, shall be entitled to all the rights, remedies, privileges, and benefits granted in sections 364(e) and 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code, this Interim Order, and the DIP Documents with respect to all uses of Prepetition Secured Parties’ Cash Collateral, DIP Obligations and Adequate Protection Obligations.

(e) Except as expressly provided in this Interim Order or in the DIP Documents, the DIP Liens, the DIP Superpriority Claims, the Credit Facility Adequate Protection Liens, the Adequate Protection Obligations, the Credit Facility 507(b) Claims, and all other rights and remedies of the DIP Secured Parties and the Prepetition Secured Parties granted by the provisions of this Interim Order and the DIP Documents shall survive, and shall not be modified, impaired or discharged by: (i) the entry of an order converting any of the Chapter 11 Cases to a case under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code, dismissing any of the Chapter 11 Cases or terminating the joint administration of these Chapter 11 Cases or by any other act or omission; (ii) the entry of an order approving the sale of any DIP Collateral pursuant to section 363(b) of the Bankruptcy Code (except to the extent permitted by the DIP Documents); (iii) the entry of an order confirming a chapter 11 plan in any of the Chapter 11 Cases and, pursuant to section 1141(d)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors have waived any discharge as to any remaining DIP Obligations or Adequate Protection Obligations; or (iv) any other act or omission. The terms and provisions of this Interim Order and the DIP Documents shall continue in these Chapter 11 Cases, in any Successor Cases if these Chapter 11 Cases cease to be jointly administered, and in any superseding chapter 7 cases under the Bankruptcy Code, and the DIP Liens, the DIP Superpriority Claims, the Credit Facility Adequate Protection Liens, the Adequate Protection Obligations, and all other rights and remedies of the DIP Secured Parties and the Prepetition Secured Parties granted by the provisions of this Interim Order and the DIP Documents shall continue in full force and effect until the DIP Obligations (other than contingent obligations for which no claim has been asserted) are indefeasibly paid in full in cash, as set forth herein and in the DIP Documents, and the Commitments have been terminated.

18. Effect of Stipulations on Third Parties. The Debtors’ stipulations, admissions, agreements, and releases contained in this Interim Order shall be binding upon the Debtors, but not their estates, in all circumstances and for all purposes. The Debtors’ stipulations, admissions, agreements and releases contained in this Interim Order shall be binding upon all other parties in interest, including any statutory or non-statutory committees appointed or formed in the Chapter 11 Cases (including the Creditors’ Committee, if appointed) and any other person or entity acting or seeking to act on behalf of the Debtors’ estates, including any chapter 7 or chapter 11 trustee or examiner appointed or elected for any of the Debtors, in all circumstances and for all purposes unless: (a) such committee or any other party in interest with requisite standing (subject in all respects to any agreement or applicable law that may limit or affect such entity’s right or ability to do so), has timely filed an adversary proceeding or contested matter (subject to the limitations contained herein, including, inter alia, in this paragraph 18) by no later than (i) (x) with respect to parties in interest with requisite standing other than the Creditors’ Committee, 75 calendar days after entry of the Final Order and (y) with respect to the Creditors’ Committee, 60 calendar days after the entry of the Final Order, (ii) any such later date as has been agreed to, in writing, by the Prepetition Agents (with the consent of the Requisite Lenders (as defined in the Prepetition Credit Agreements)) and the DIP Agent (with the consent of the Required DIP Lenders), as applicable, and (iii) any such later date as has been ordered by the Court for cause upon a motion filed and served within any applicable period of time set forth in this paragraph (the time period established by the foregoing clauses (i), (ii), and (iii), the “Challenge Period”), in each case (A) objecting to or challenging the amount, validity, perfection, enforceability, priority, or extent of the Prepetition Credit Facility Debt, the Prepetition Loan Documents, the Prepetition Collateral, or the Prepetition Credit Facility Liens, or (B) otherwise asserting or prosecuting any action for preferences, fraudulent transfers or conveyances, other avoidance power claims or any other claims, counterclaims or causes of action, objections, contests or defenses (collectively, the “Challenges”) against the Prepetition Secured Parties or their Representatives in connection with matters related to the Prepetition Loan Documents, the Prepetition Credit Facility Debt, the Prepetition Credit Facility Liens, and the Prepetition Collateral; and (b) there is a final non-appealable order in favor of the plaintiff sustaining any such Challenge in any such timely filed adversary proceeding or contested matter; provided, however, that any pleadings filed in connection with any Challenge shall set forth with specificity the basis for such challenge or claim and any challenges or claims not so specified prior to the expiration of the Challenge Period shall be deemed forever, waived, released, and barred. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that, prior to the expiration of the Challenge Period, (x) these Chapter 11 Cases are converted to cases under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code or (y) a chapter 11 trustee is appointed in these Chapter 11 Cases, then in each such case, the Challenge Period shall be extended for a period of 60 days solely with respect to any Trustee.

The DIP Documents and the provisions of this Interim Order, including all findings herein, shall be binding upon all parties in interest in these Chapter 11 Cases, including the DIP Secured Parties, the Prepetition Secured Parties, the Creditors’ Committee (if appointed), any other statutory or non‑statutory committees appointed or formed in these Chapter 11 Cases, the Debtors and their respective successors and assigns (including any chapter 7 or chapter 11 trustee hereinafter appointed or elected for the estate of any of the Debtors, an examiner appointed pursuant to section 1104 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any other fiduciary appointed as a legal representative of any of the Debtors or with respect to the property of the estate of any of the Debtors) and shall inure to the benefit of the DIP Secured Parties, the Prepetition Secured Parties, and the Debtors and their respective successors and assigns; provided that the DIP Secured Parties and the Prepetition Secured Parties shall have no obligation to permit the use of the DIP Collateral or the Prepetition Collateral, as applicable, by, or to extend any financing to, any chapter 7 trustee, chapter 11 trustee, or similar responsible person appointed for the estates of the Debtors.

The Master Proof of Claim shall not be required to identify whether any Prepetition Secured Party or DIP Secured Party acquired its claim from another party and the identity of any such party or to be amended to reflect a change in the holders of the claims set forth therein or a reallocation among such holders of the claims asserted therein resulting from the transfer of all or any portion of such claims. The provisions of this paragraph 24 and each Master Proof of Claim are intended solely for the purpose of administrative convenience and shall not affect the right of each Prepetition Secured Party or DIP Secured Party (or their successors in interest) to vote separately on any plan proposed in these Chapter 11 Cases. The Master Proof of Claim shall not be required to attach any instruments, agreements or other documents evidencing the obligations owing by each of the applicable Debtors to the applicable Prepetition Secured Parties or DIP Secured Parties, which instruments, agreements or other documents will be provided upon written request to counsel to the Prepetition Agents or DIP Agent, as applicable.

25. Insurance. The DIP Agent, for the benefit of the DIP Secured Parties is deemed to be an additional insured and lender loss payee under the Debtors’ insurance policies, including those in respect of or relating to the DIP Collateral, and shall act in that capacity and distribute any proceeds recovered or received in respect of any such insurance policies (other than in respect of Prepetition Collateral) in accordance with the DIP Documents.

29. Taxing Authorities.

31. Credit Bidding. (a) The DIP Agent, acting at the direction of the Required DIP Lenders, shall have the right, to credit bid, in accordance with the DIP Documents, including Section 12.13 of the DIP Credit Agreement, up to the full amount of the DIP Obligations in any sale of the DIP Collateral, and (b) subject to the Intercreditor Agreement and to any successful Challenge, the Prepetition Secured Parties shall have the right to credit bid up to the full amount of the Prepetition Credit Facility Debt secured by Prepetition Collateral in any sale of the Prepetition Collateral, in each case, as provided for in section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code, without the need for further Court order authorizing the same and whether any such sale is effectuated through section 363 or 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, by a chapter 7 trustee under section 725 of the Bankruptcy Code, or otherwise.
