Section 3. |
Transfers of Convertible Notes.
|
(a) For the
duration of the Cooperation Period or until the date such Party otherwise ceases to be a Party hereto in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement, each Party agrees that it shall not sell, loan, assign, transfer, hypothecate or otherwise
dispose of (including by participation), directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, its right, title or interest in the Convertible Notes, or grant any proxies, deposit any of its Convertible Notes into a voting trust, or enter into a voting
agreement with respect to any such Convertible Notes (each such act, a “Transfer”), to any other person or entity unless, (x) the transferee is a Cooperating Noteholder at the time of the Transfer, or (y) (i) prior to such Transfer, the
transferee executes and delivers to Stroock a joinder agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (a “Joinder Agreement”) pursuant to which (among other things) such transferee agrees,
for the benefit of the other Parties hereto, to be bound by this Agreement in its entirety and to assume the transferor-Cooperating Noteholder’s obligations hereunder, and (ii) contemporaneously with such Transfer, the transferor promptly provides

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED |
(b) Any sale,
transfer, assignment, tender or consent of any Convertible Notes that does not comply with the terms and procedures set forth herein shall be deemed void ab initio, and each other Party hereto shall have

a transferee that, prior to such Transfer, executes and delivers to Stroock, for the benefit of the other Parties hereto, a Joinder Agreement pursuant to which (among other things) such transferee agrees to be bound by this Agreement in its
entirety and to assume the transferor-Cooperating Noteholder’s obligations hereunder and (y), the Cooperating Noteholder provides prompt notice of such Transfer to Stroock (which may be by email). For purposes of this Agreement “Qualified

such Convertible Notes, and (b) is in fact regularly in the business of making a market in Convertible Notes. To the extent that a Party is acting in its capacity as a Qualified Marketmaker, it may Transfer any right, title or interest in such
