No party hereto will make any disclosure or public announcements of the proposed transactions, the LOI or the terms thereof without the prior consent of the other party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, or except, and only to the extent, as required by the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company agrees to provide to A1 such current information regarding the Company as A1 may reasonably request to include in any disclosure statement to be provided to A1 members and note holders in connection with soliciting the vote of A1 members and note holders for approval of the Plan of Reorganization and the transactions contemplated thereby.
