$450 Million Superpriority Senior Secured
Debtor-In-Possession Term Loan Credit Facility Commitment Letter 

J. C. Penney Corporation, Inc. (“JCP”, “you” or “your”) has (i) advised the DIP
Lenders (as defined in the DIP Term Sheet (as defined below)) (the “Commitment Parties”, “we”, “us” or “our”), that JCP and certain of its subsidiaries (the “Subsidiary
Debtors”) and J. C. Penney Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation and the direct parent of JCP (“Holdings” and, collectively with JCP and the Subsidiary Debtors, the “Debtors”), are considering filing
voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code, 11 U.S.C. §§ 101 et seq. (as amended, the “Bankruptcy Code”), and (ii) in connection with the foregoing, requested
that the Commitment Parties agree to commit to provide a $450 million superpriority senior secured debtor-in-possession term loan credit facility for JCP under
Sections 364(c) and 364(d) of the Bankruptcy Code (the “DIP Facility”) subject solely to the Conditions Precedent to the Initial Borrowing and the Conditions Precedent to The Subsequent Borrowing that are applicable to the relevant
borrowing (collectively, the “Conditions Precedents”). Unless otherwise specified herein, all references to “$” shall refer to U.S. dollars. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meaning assigned
thereto in the DIP Term Sheet. 
 1. Commitment. 

To provide assurance that the DIP Facility shall be available on the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the DIP Term Sheet, each
Commitment Party is pleased to advise JCP of its several, but not joint, commitment (the “Commitment”) to provide the amount of the DIP Facility set forth on Schedule 1 hereto, on the terms set forth in the DIP Term Sheet
attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “DIP Term Sheet and together with this letter, this “Commitment Letter”), subject solely to the Conditions Precedent that are applicable to the relevant borrowing. 

You acknowledge and agree that nothing in this Commitment Letter or the nature of our services or in any prior relationship will be deemed to
create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship between any Commitment Party, the DIP Agent or any of their respective affiliates, on the one hand, and you, your equity holders or your affiliates, on the other hand, and you waive, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, any claims you may have against any Commitment Party, the DIP Agent or any of their respective affiliates for breach of fiduciary duty or alleged breach of fiduciary duty in connection with this Commitment Letter or
the transactions contemplated hereby, and agree that no Commitment Party, Agent or affiliates of any of the foregoing will have any liability (whether direct or indirect) to you in respect of such a fiduciary duty claim or to any person asserting a
fiduciary duty claim on your behalf, including your equity holders, employees or creditors. You acknowledge that the transactions contemplated 

  
 1 













 
hereby (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions and that we and the DIP Agent are acting as
principal and in our own respective best interests. You are relying on your own experts and advisors to determine whether the transactions contemplated hereby are in your best interests and are capable of evaluating and understanding, and you
understand and accept, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby. In addition, you acknowledge that we and the DIP Agent may employ the services of our respective affiliates in providing certain services hereunder and
may exchange with such affiliates information concerning JCP and other companies that may be the subject of the transactions contemplated hereby and such affiliates will be entitled to the benefits afforded to us and the DIP Agent hereunder;
provided that any such affiliates receiving information concerning JCP and other companies in accordance with this paragraph shall be subject to the same confidentiality obligations provided for in this Commitment Letter (with each Commitment
Party responsible for its affiliates’ compliance with this paragraph). 
 2. Information. 

You hereby represent, warrant and covenant that (a) all written information concerning you and your subsidiaries and your and their
respective business (other than financial projections, estimates, forecasts and budgets and other forward-looking information (collectively, the “Projections”) and information of a general economic or industry specific nature) (the
“Information”) that has been or will be made available to us or any of our respective affiliates by or on behalf of you is or will be, when furnished, complete and correct in all material respects, when taken as a whole, and does
not or will not, when furnished, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under which such
statements are made (after giving effect to the updates provided for in the penultimate sentence of this Section 2) and (b) the Projections that have been or will be made available to us or any of our affiliates by or on behalf of you or
any of your representatives have been or will be prepared in good faith based upon assumptions that are believed by the preparer thereof to be reasonable at the time made and at the time the related Projections are made available to us or any of our
affiliates (it being acknowledged that (i) such Projections are merely a prediction as to future events and are not to be viewed as facts, (ii) such Projections are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are
beyond your control, (iii) the actual results during the period or periods covered by any such Projections may differ significantly from the projected results, and (iv) no guarantee or assurance can be given that the projected results will
be realized). In particular, where Projections expressly or implicitly take into account the current market volatility and widespread impact of the COVID-19 outbreak, the extent of the impact of these
developments on the Debtors’ and their subsidiaries’ operational and financial performance will depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak and related governmental advisories and restrictions, and the
impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on overall demand for the Debtors’ and their subsidiaries’ products and services, all of which are outside of the control of the Debtors or their subsidiaries, highly
uncertain and cannot be predicted. You agree that if, at any time prior to the entry of the Final DIP Order approving the DIP Facility, any of the representations, warranties and covenants in the preceding sentence would be incorrect in any material
respect if the Information and Projections were being furnished, and such representations, warranties and covenants were being made, at such subsequent time, then you will promptly supplement the Information and the Projections so that


  
 2 













 
such representations, warranties and covenants would be correct in material respects; provided, for the avoidance of doubt, there will be no requirement to update previously delivered
Projections to reflect new assumptions so long as the assumptions were reasonable at the time made and made available to us or any of our affiliates. Without limiting the representations, warranties and covenants to be contained in the Operative
Documents or the Conditions Precedent that are applicable to the relevant borrowing, the accuracy of the foregoing representations and warranties, whether or not cured, shall not be a condition to the obligations of the Commitment Parties hereunder
or the availability of the DIP Facility. 
 3. Premiums. 

Without duplication of the commitment premium set forth in the DIP Term Sheet under the heading “DIP Facility Premiums”, as
consideration for the Commitments and agreements of the Commitment Parties hereunder, JCP agrees to pay (or cause to be paid) to the Commitment Parties a non-refundable commitment premium equal to 6.00% of
$450 million (the “Commitment Premium”), which shall be allocated to each Commitment Party in an amount equal to its percentage set forth on Schedule 1 hereto multiplied by the Commitment Premium, which shall be
earned on the date of this Commitment Letter and shall be due and payable in cash on the date of this Commitment Letter free and clear of any withholding or deduction on account of taxes. The parties hereto hereby acknowledge and agree that the
obligation of JCP to pay the Commitment Premium shall constitute an “Obligation” under and as defined in the Operative Documents. 

Without duplication of the upfront premium set forth in the DIP Term Sheet under the heading “DIP Facility Premiums”, as
consideration for the Commitments and agreements of the Commitment Parties hereunder, JCP agrees to pay (or cause to be paid) to the Commitment Parties a non-refundable upfront premium equal to 4.00% of
$450 million (the “Upfront Premium”), which shall be allocated to each Commitment Party in an amount equal to its percentage set forth on Schedule 1 hereto multiplied by the Upfront Premium, which shall be earned
on the date of this Commitment Letter and shall be due and payable in cash on the date of this Commitment Letter free and clear of any withholding or deduction on account of taxes. The parties hereto hereby acknowledge and agree that the obligation
of JCP to pay the Upfront Premium shall constitute an “Obligation” under and as defined in the Operative Documents. 
 4. Conditions. 

The Commitment Parties’ Commitments and agreements hereunder in respect of the DIP Facility are subject solely to the satisfaction (or
waiver by the Commitment Parties) of the Conditions Precedent that are applicable to the relevant borrowing. The Commitment Parties’ commitments to fund the DIP Facility on the date of the relevant borrowing are subject solely to the
satisfaction (or waiver by the Commitment Parties) of the Conditions Precedent that are applicable to the relevant borrowing. There are no conditions (implied or otherwise) to the Commitments hereunder in respect of the DIP Facility, and there will
be no conditions (implied or otherwise) to the availability of the DIP Facility on the date of the relevant borrowing, including compliance with the terms of this Commitment Letter or the DIP Term Sheet, other than the Conditions Precedent that are
applicable to the relevant borrowing. For the avoidance of doubt, the Commitment Parties’ commitments to fund the DIP Facility on the date of the 

  
 3 













 
relevant borrowing are subject to their receipt of the Commitment Premium and Upfront Premium on the date of this Commitment Letter subject to the confirmation by the escrow agent that the
Commitment Premium and the Upfront Premium have been received, along with irrevocable instructions from the Debtors to disburse the funds to the DIP Lenders, by the escrow agent on the date of this Commitment Letter prior to the filing of the
petition by the Debtors commencing the Chapter 11 Cases. 
 5. Indemnification and Expenses. 

You agree to (a) indemnify and hold harmless each Commitment Party and the DIP Agent, their respective affiliates and their and their
affiliates’ respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, accountants, advisors (including investment managers, financial advisors and advisers), consultants, representatives, controlling persons, members and permitted
successors and assigns (each, an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, joint or several (“Losses”) to which any such Indemnified Person may become
subject arising out of or in connection with this Commitment Letter, the DIP Facility, the use of proceeds thereof or any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, and to (b) reimburse each Commitment
Party promptly (but in any event within ten business days) upon receipt of their demand for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket (i) legal or other expenses
(including Milbank LLP, Sullivan & Cromwell LLP and any reasonably necessary local legal counsel) and (iii) fees and expenses of Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Houlihan Lokey, Inc., and Hilco Real Estate, LLC) incurred in connection
with the Chapter 11 Cases, the DIP Facility, the enforcement of this Commitment Letter, the definitive documentation for the DIP Facility, and any ancillary documents and security arrangements in connection therewith, but no other third-party
financial advisors (other than Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Houlihan Lokey, Inc., and Hilco Real Estate, LLC) without your prior written consent; provided, that the foregoing indemnity will not, as to any Indemnified Person, apply to Losses
to the extent (a) they are found in a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Person’s (i) gross negligence, bad faith or
willful misconduct or (ii) material breach of its obligations under this Commitment Letter, or (b) they relate to a dispute solely among Indemnified Persons and not arising out of any act or omission of the Debtors or any of their
respective subsidiaries (other than any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding against the DIP Agent, in its capacity or in fulfilling its role as such). 

None of you, Holdings, the other Debtors, any of your or their respective subsidiaries, we nor any other Indemnified Person will be
responsible or liable to one another for any indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages which may be alleged as a result of or arising out of, or in any way related to, the DIP Facility, the enforcement of this Commitment Letter, the
definitive documentation for the DIP Facility, or any ancillary documents and security arrangements in connection therewith; provided that your indemnity and reimbursement obligations under this Section 5 shall not be limited by this
sentence. 
 6. Assignments, Amendments. 

This Commitment Letter shall not be assignable by you or us without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto (and any attempted
assignment without such consent shall be 

  
 4 













 
null and void), is intended to be solely for the benefit of the parties hereto, the Indemnified Persons and with respect to Section 5 and this Section 6, the DIP Agent, and is not
intended to confer any benefits upon, or create any rights in favor of, any person or entity other than the parties hereto, the Indemnified Persons and with respect to Section 5 and this Section 6, the DIP Agent; provided that, for
the avoidance of doubt, any DIP Lender may assign its rights, commitments and obligations under this Commitment Letter to any other DIP Lender (including any entity described in the definition of “DIP Lender”). This Commitment Letter may
not be amended or any provision hereof waived or modified except by an instrument in writing signed by (a) except to the extent a greater percentage of the DIP Lenders is expressly required in the DIP Term Sheet, the Required Lenders and
(b) you. 
 This Commitment Letter may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of which,
when taken together, shall constitute one agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Commitment Letter by facsimile or other electronic transmission (including E-Signature)
shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. Section headings used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Commitment Letter and are not to affect the construction of, or to be taken into
consideration in interpreting, this Commitment Letter. You acknowledge that information and documents relating to the DIP Facility may be transmitted through the internet, e-mail or similar electronic
transmission systems and that neither any Commitment Party nor the DIP Agent, nor any of their respective affiliates, shall be liable for any damages arising from the unauthorized use by others of information or documents transmitted in such manner.

 This Commitment Letter, together with the RSA, supersedes all prior understandings, whether written or oral, between us with respect to
the DIP Facility. 
 7. Governing Law, Etc.; Jurisdiction. 

THIS COMMITMENT LETTER AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO THIS COMMITMENT LETTER (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
ANY CLAIMS SOUNDING IN CONTRACT LAW OR TORT LAW ARISING OUT OF THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF) SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY CHOICE OR CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISION OR
RULE THAT WOULD CAUSE THE APPLICATION OF THE DOMESTIC SUBSTANTIVE LAWS OF ANY OTHER STATE). 
 Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably
and unconditionally (a) submits, for itself and its property, to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or Federal court of the United States of America sitting in the Borough of
Manhattan in New York City, and any appellate court from any thereof and the Bankruptcy Court, in any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Commitment Letter or the DIP Facility, and agrees that all claims in respect of any
such suit, action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court, or, to the extent applicable, the Bankruptcy Court; provided that suit for the recognition or
enforcement of any judgment obtained in any such court may be brought in any other court of competent jurisdiction, (b) waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection


  
 5 













 
which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Commitment Letter or the DIP Facility in any New York State court,
in any such Federal court or in Bankruptcy Court, (c) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such suit, action or proceeding in any such court, and (d) agrees that a final
judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. 

You hereby agree that you shall not bring any suit, action, proceeding, claim or counterclaim under this Commitment Letter or with respect to
the transactions contemplated hereby in any court other than such New York State court or Federal Court of the United States of America sitting in the Borough of Manhattan in New York City. Service of any process, summons, notice or document by
registered mail addressed to you at the address above shall be effective service of process against you for any suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court. 

8. Waiver of Jury Trial. 
 EACH OF THE
PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES (TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW) THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, CLAIM OR COUNTERCLAIM BROUGHT BY OR ON BEHALF OF ANY PARTY RELATED TO OR ARISING OUT OF THIS COMMITMENT LETTER OR THE
PERFORMANCE OF SERVICES HEREUNDER OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. 
 9. Confidentiality. 

This Commitment Letter is delivered to JCP on the understanding that neither this Commitment Letter nor any of its terms or substance shall be
disclosed, directly or indirectly, to any other person or entity except (a) you, Holdings and its subsidiaries and your and their respective officers, directors, employees, legal counsel, accountants, financial advisors on a confidential and
“need to know” basis and, in each case, who are involved in the consideration of the financing transactions contemplated hereby who have been informed by you, Holdings or any of its subsidiaries, as applicable, of the confidential nature
of this Commitment Letter and have agreed to treat such information confidentially, (b) in any legal, judicial or administrative proceeding or as otherwise required by law or regulation or as requested by a governmental authority (in which case
you agree, to the extent not prohibited by law, to inform Commitment Parties promptly in advance thereof), (c) the office of the U.S. Trustee, any ad-hoc or statutorily appointed committee of unsecured
creditors, and their respective representatives and professional advisors on a confidential and “need to know” basis, (d) to the Bankruptcy Court, (e) as and to the extent required in any financial statements or for other
customary accounting purposes and (f) you may disclose the aggregate amount of the premiums hereunder as part of projections, pro forma information and a generic disclosure of aggregate sources and uses. 

Each Commitment Party agrees to keep confidential, and not to publish, disclose or otherwise divulge, confidential information with respect to
the transactions contemplated hereby or obtained from or on behalf of you, Holdings or your and its respective affiliates in the course 

  
 6 













 
of the transactions contemplated hereby, except that the Commitment Parties shall be permitted to disclose such confidential information (a) to their affiliates and their and their
affiliates’ respective directors, officers, agents, employees, attorneys, accountants and advisors involved in the transactions contemplated hereby on a “need to know” basis and who are made aware of and agree to comply with the
provisions of this paragraph, in each case on a confidential basis (with the Commitment Party responsible for such persons’ compliance with this paragraph), (b) on a confidential basis to any bona fide prospective DIP Lender, prospective
participant or swap counterparty (in accordance with the terms of the DIP Term Sheet) that agrees to keep such information confidential in accordance with (x) the provisions of this paragraph (or language substantially similar to this paragraph

judicial or administrative proceeding, or otherwise as required by applicable law, regulation or compulsory legal process (in which case you agree, to the extent not prohibited by law, to inform Commitment Parties promptly in advance thereof),
(d) to the extent such information: (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Commitment Letter or other confidentiality obligation owed by such Commitment Party to you or your affiliates or
(ii) becomes available to the Commitment Parties on a non-confidential basis from a source other than you or on your behalf that, to such Commitment Party’s knowledge, is not in violation of any
confidentiality obligation owed to you or your affiliates, (e) to the extent you shall have consented to such disclosure in writing (which may include through electronic means), (f) as is necessary in protecting and enforcing the
Commitment Parties’ rights with respect to this Commitment Letter and/or the DIP Facility, (g) to the extent independently developed by such Commitment Party or its affiliates without reliance on confidential information, (h) with

data collectors or similar service providers in connection with the arrangement, administration or management of the DIP Facility and to industry trade organizations where such information with respect to the DIP Facility is customarily included in
league table measurements. The Commitment Parties’ and their respective affiliates’, if any, obligations under this paragraph shall terminate automatically to the extent superseded by the confidentiality provisions in the Operative
Documents upon the effectiveness thereof and, in any event, will terminate one year from the date of this Commitment Letter. 
 10. Miscellaneous.

 You acknowledge and agree that nothing in this Commitment Letter or the nature of our services or in any prior relationship will be deemed
to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship between any Commitment Party, the DIP Agent or any of their respective affiliates, on the one hand, and you, your equity holders or your affiliates, on the other hand, and you waive, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, any claims you may have against any Commitment Party, the DIP Agent or any of their respective affiliates for breach of fiduciary duty or alleged breach of fiduciary duty in connection with this Commitment Letter or
the transactions contemplated hereby, and agree that no Commitment Party, Agent or affiliates of any of the foregoing will have any liability (whether direct or indirect) to you in respect of such a fiduciary duty claim or to any person asserting a
fiduciary duty claim on your behalf, including your 

  
 7 













 
equity holders, employees or creditors. You acknowledge that the transactions contemplated hereby (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder) are
arm’s-length commercial transactions and that we and the DIP Agent are acting as principal and in our own respective best interests. You are relying on your own experts and advisors to determine whether
the transactions contemplated hereby are in your best interests and are capable of evaluating and understanding, and you understand and accept, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby. In addition, you acknowledge
that we and the DIP Agent may employ the services of our respective affiliates in providing certain services hereunder and may exchange with such affiliates information concerning JCP and other companies that may be the subject of the transactions
contemplated hereby and such affiliates will be entitled to the benefits afforded to us and the DIP Agent hereunder; provided, that any such affiliates receiving information concerning JCP and other companies in accordance with this paragraph
shall be subject to the same confidentiality obligations provided for in this Commitment Letter (with each Commitment Party responsible for its affiliates’ compliance with this paragraph). 

The Commitment Parties hereby notify JCP that, pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law on October 26, 2001) (the “PATRIOT Act”) and the requirements of 31 C.F.R. § 1010.230 (the “Beneficial Ownership Regulation”), it and its
affiliates are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Credit Party, which information includes names, addresses, tax identification numbers and other information that will allow Commitment Parties and its affiliates
to identify each Credit Party in accordance with the PATRIOT Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation. This notice is given in accordance with the requirements of the PATRIOT Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation and is effective for
Commitment Parties and its affiliates. 
 Absent a change in applicable tax law or a contrary determination (as defined in
Section 1313(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended), each of the parties hereto agrees that (i) each of the Commitment Premium and the Upfront Premium shall be treated as a premium paid by JCP to the relevant Commitment Party
in exchange for the issuance of a put right to JCP with respect to the DIP Facility and (ii) to not take any tax position inconsistent with the tax treatment described in the foregoing clause (i). 

Each of the parties hereto agrees that this Commitment Letter is a binding and enforceable agreement (subject to the effects of bankruptcy,
insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or law)) with respect to the subject
matter contained herein, including an agreement to negotiate in good faith the definitive documentation for the DIP Facility by the parties hereto in a manner consistent with this Commitment Letter, it being acknowledged and agreed that the
availability of the DIP Facility is subject solely to the Conditions Precedent that are applicable to the relevant borrowing. 
 If the
foregoing correctly sets forth our agreement, please indicate JCP’s acceptance of the terms of this Commitment Letter by returning to the Commitment Parties executed counterparts of this Commitment Letter not later than 11:59 p.m., New York
City time, on the date first written above. This offer will automatically expire at such time if the Commitment Parties have not received such executed counterparts in accordance with the preceding sentence.


  
 8 













 
This Commitment Letter and the Commitments and agreements hereunder shall automatically terminate on the earlier of (i) the date of the effectiveness of the Operative Documents and
(ii) unless the Commitment Parties shall, in their sole discretion, agree in writing to an extension, 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on June 9, 2020. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, Section 3 above, as well as the
indemnification and expenses, confidentiality, information, jurisdiction, governing law and waiver of jury trial provisions contained herein shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms notwithstanding the termination of this
Commitment Letter or the Commitment Parties’ Commitments hereunder; provided that your obligations under this Commitment Letter, other than those pursuant to Section 3 and with respect to confidentiality, shall automatically
terminate and be superseded by the applicable provisions in the Operative Documents, in each case, to the extent covered thereby, on the date of the effectiveness of the Operative Documents, and you shall be released from all liability in connection

See Attached. 












 $450 MILLION SECURED SUPERPRIORITY DEBTOR IN POSSESSION CREDIT FACILITY 

SUMMARY OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS 

This summary of terms and conditions (this “DIP Term Sheet”) outlines certain terms and conditions of the DIP Facility
referred to below. Capitalized terms used and not defined herein have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Restructuring Support Agreement (“RSA”) or the Restructuring Term Sheet (the “RSA Term
Sheet”) to which this DIP Term Sheet is attached as Annex 2. 

			
		
	Executive Summary:	  	 This DIP Term Sheet provides for a $450 million secured superpriority debtor in possession credit facility, to be funded on a delayed

 Schedule II 

DIP Carve Out 

(a)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Final Order, the Debtors’ obligations to the DIP Secured Parties and
[Prepetition Secured Parties] and the liens, security interests, and superpriority claims granted herein, under the DIP Loan Documents, and/or under the Prepetition Loan Documents, including the DIP Liens, the DIP Superpriority Claims, the Adequate
Protection Liens, the Adequate Protection Claims, and the Prepetition Liens, shall be subject in all respects and subordinate to the Carve Out. 

(b)    As used in this 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 (without regard to the notice set forth in (iii) below); (ii) all reasonable fees and expenses up to
$25,000 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 (including any restructuring, sale, success, or other transaction fee of any investment bankers or financial advisors of the Debtors or any Official Committee) (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 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 

  
 26 













 
not to exceed $4,000,000 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 to the Debtors, their lead restructuring counsel, the U.S. Trustee, and counsel to the Creditors’ Committee, which notice may be delivered following the occurrence and during the continuation
of an Event of Default and acceleration of the DIP Obligations under the DIP Facility, stating that the Post-Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap has been invoked. 

(c)    Carve Out Reserves. The Debtors shall establish and fund a segregated account (the “Funded Reserve Account”) for purposes
of funding the Carve Out. The Funded Reserve Account will be funded first from the [DIP Proceeds Account], then from the DIP Priority Collateral. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Order, the DIP Documents, or the Prepetition Loan
Documents, (i) in no circumstances (which, for the avoidance of doubt, includes, but is not limited to, an Event of Default or a termination of the DIP Credit Agreement or DIP Loan Documents) shall the Debtors be prohibited in any way from
accessing or drawing upon the [DIP Proceeds Account] for the purpose of funding the Funded Reserve Account, and (ii) the [DIP Proceeds Account] shall not be ABL Priority Collateral or Prepetition ABL Collateral. Upon entry of this Order, the
Debtors will deposit into the Funded Reserve Account an amount equal to the aggregate amount of Allowed Professional Fees projected to accrue from entry of this Order through June 30, 2020 (the “Initial Funded Reserve Amount”), which,
for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include the Post-Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap. Commencing July 1, 2020 (or the first business day thereafter), on the first business day of each month, the Debtors shall deposit in the


  
 27 













 
Funded Reserve Account an amount equal to the aggregate amount of Allowed Professional Fees (excluding restructuring, sale, financing, or other success fees) projected to accrue for the following
month in the Budget plus twenty percent of such aggregate amount of Allowed Professional Fees in the following month in the Budget (the “Monthly Funded Reserve Amount”). Each Professional Person may deliver to the Debtors a good-faith
estimate of the cumulative total amount of unreimbursed fees and expenses incurred in the preceding month (each such statement, a “Fee Statement”), and to the extent the amount of Allowed Professional Fees accrued and claimed in a Fee
Statement exceeds the Initial Funded Reserve Amount or the Monthly Funded Reserve Amount for the applicable period or month, respectively, and such fees and expenses have otherwise not been paid by the Debtors, the Debtors shall, within one business
day, fund additional amounts into the Funded Reserve Account equal to the difference between, as applicable, the Initial Funded Reserve Amount or the Monthly Funded Reserve Amount and the amount accrued and claimed in the applicable Fee Statement
(each, a “Top Off Amount”). At any time, if the Debtors in good faith believe a restructuring, sale, financing, or other success fee has been earned by a Professional Person and is then due and payable, the Debtors shall deposit in the
Funded Reserve Account an amount equal to such fee. Upon entry of the Order, the Debtors shall deposit into the Funded Reserve Account an amount equal to (i) the Post Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap plus (ii) the amounts contemplated under
(b)(i) and (ii) above. The Funded Reserve Account shall be maintained, and the funds therein (the “Funded Reserve Amount”) shall be held in trust for the benefit of Professional Persons. Any and all amounts in the Funded Reserve
Account shall not be subject to any cash sweep and/or foreclosure provisions in the Prepetition Loan Documents or DIP Loan Documents and neither the [Prepetition Secured Parties] nor the DIP Secured Parties shall be entitled to sweep or foreclose on
such amounts notwithstanding any provision to the contrary 

  
 28 













 
in the [Prepetition Loan Documents] or DIP Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any and all payments to Professional Persons allowed by the Court (excluding restructuring, sale,
financing, or other success fees) shall be paid first from the Funded Reserve Account. 
 (d)    On the day on which a Carve Out Trigger
Notice is given by the DIP Agent to the Debtors in accordance with paragraph [[        ](b)] above, with a copy to counsel to the Creditors’ Committee (the “Termination Declaration Date”), the
Carve Out Trigger Notice shall 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, including cash in the DIP Proceeds Account, to fund a reserve in an amount equal to
the then unpaid amounts of the Allowed Professional Fees in excess of the Funded Reserve Amount; provided that in the event that a Termination Declaration Date occurs, Professional Persons shall have two business days to deliver additional Fee
Statements to the Debtors, and the Debtors shall fund into the Funded Reserve Amount and Top Off Amounts. The Debtors shall deposit and hold such amounts in the Funded Reserve Account 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 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, including cash in the DIP Proceeds Account, 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 to the extent not already funded (including upon entry of the Order as set forth above). The Debtors shall deposit and hold such amounts in a segregated account at an institution designated by
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.    All 

  
 29 













 
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 the benefit of the DIP Lenders, unless the DIP Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, in cash (or other form of payment pursuant to an Acceptable Plan), 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 set forth herein. 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 the benefit of the DIP Lenders, unless the DIP Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, in cash (or other form of payment pursuant to an Acceptable Plan), 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 set forth herein. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the DIP Loan Documents, or this Order, if either of the Carve Out Reserves
is not funded in full in the amounts set forth in this paragraph [        ], 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
[        ], prior to making any payments to the DIP Agent or the [Prepetition Secured Parties], as applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the DIP Loan Documents or this Order, following
delivery of a Carve Out Trigger Notice, the DIP Agent and the [Prepetition Agents] shall not sweep or foreclose on cash (including 

  
 30 













 
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 shall have a security interest in any residual
interest in the Carve Out Reserves, with any excess paid to the DIP Agent for application in accordance with the DIP Loan Documents. Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Order, (i) disbursements by the Debtors from the
