(c) Section 5.15(a) shall be amended
and restated as follows:
“Each Party agrees that (i) all rights to indemnification or exculpation now existing in favor of the directors and officers of each CHP Party, as
provided in the applicable CHP Party’s Governing Documents or otherwise in effect as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, in either case, solely with respect to any matters occurring on or prior to the Effective Time shall survive the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and shall continue in full force and effect from and after the Effective Time for a period of six (6) years and (ii) CHP will perform and discharge, or cause to be performed and discharged, all
obligations to provide such indemnity and exculpation during such six (6)-year period. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, during such six (6)-year period, CHP shall advance, or caused to be advanced, expenses in connection with such
indemnification as provided in the applicable CHP Party’s Governing Documents or other applicable agreements as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time. The indemnification and liability limitation or exculpation provisions of the CHP
Parties’ Governing Documents shall not, during such six (6)-year period, be amended, repealed or otherwise modified after the Effective Time in any manner that would materially and adversely affect the rights thereunder of individuals who, as of
immediately prior to the Effective Time, or at any time prior to such time, were directors or officers of any CHP Party (the “CHP D&O Persons”) entitled to be so
indemnified, have their liability limited or be exculpated with respect to any matters occurring on or prior to the Effective Time and relating to the fact that such CHP D&O Person was a director or officer of any CHP Party immediately prior to
the Effective Time, unless such amendment, repeal or other modification is required by applicable Law. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, CHP may incur up to $500,000.00 pursuant to note(s) issued to such CHP D&O Persons in
connection with funding premiums for D&O insurance, which note(s) will be repaid in full to such applicable CHP D&O Persons at and contingent upon Closing.”
