5.        Sharing Information; Absence of Fiduciary Relationship; Affiliate Activities.

 You acknowledge that each DIP Commitment Party may be providing debt financing, equity capital, or making investments in, or to,
other companies in respect of which you may have conflicting interests regarding the transactions described herein or otherwise. We will not furnish confidential information obtained from you by virtue of the transactions contemplated by this
Commitment Letter or our other relationships with you to other companies. You also acknowledge that we do not have any obligation to use in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Commitment Letter, or to furnish to you, confidential
information obtained by us from other companies. 
 You further acknowledge and agree that (a) no fiduciary, advisory or agency
relationship between you (or any of your affiliates) and any DIP Commitment Party (or any Related Party thereof) is intended to be or has been created in respect of any of the transactions contemplated by this Commitment Letter, irrespective of
whether any DIP Commitment Party has advised or is advising you (or your affiliates) on other matters, (b) each DIP Commitment Party, on the one hand, and you, on the other hand, have an arms-length business relationship under this Commitment
Letter that does not directly or indirectly give rise to, nor do you rely on, any fiduciary duty on the part of any DIP Commitment Party (or any Related Party thereof), (c) you are capable of evaluating and understanding, and you understand and
accept, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Commitment Letter, (d) you have been advised that each DIP Commitment Party is engaged in a broad range of transactions that may involve interests that differ from
your interests and that DIP Commitment Parties do not have any obligation to disclose such interests and transactions to you by virtue of any fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship arising under this Commitment Letter, and (e) you waive, to
the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims you may have against any DIP Commitment Party (or any Related Party thereof) for breach of fiduciary duty or alleged breach of fiduciary duty arising under this Commitment Letter and agree that no DIP

your stockholders, employees or creditors. 
 You further acknowledge that each DIP Commitment Party may be engaged in securities

own accounts and the accounts of customers, equity, debt and other securities and financial instruments (including bank loans and other obligations) of, you and your subsidiaries and other
companies with which you or your subsidiaries may have commercial or other relationships. With respect to any securities and/or financial instruments so held by any DIP Commitment Party, or any of its customers, all rights in respect of such
securities and financial instruments, including any voting rights, will be exercised by the holder of the rights, in its sole discretion. Accordingly, there may be situations where the DIP Commitment Parties and/or their clients either now have or
may in the future have interests, or take actions, that may conflict with the Company’s interests. For example, any DIP Commitment Party may, in the ordinary course of business, engage in trading in financial products or undertake other
investment businesses for its own account or on behalf of other clients, including without limitation, trading in or holding long, short or derivative positions in securities, loans or other financial products of the Company or its affiliates or
other entities connected with the DIP Facility or the transactions contemplated hereby. 
 In recognition of the foregoing, the
Company agrees that no DIP Commitment Party is required to restrict its activities as a result of this Commitment Letter and that any DIP Commitment Party may undertake any business activity without further consultation with or notification to the
Company. Neither this Commitment Letter nor the receipt by the DIP Commitment Parties of confidential information in connection with this Commitment Letter will give rise to any fiduciary, equitable or contractual duties (including without
limitation, any duty of trust or confidence) that would prevent or restrict the DIP Commitment Parties from acting on behalf of other customers or for its own account. Furthermore, the Company agrees that neither the DIP Commitment Parties nor any
of their Related Parties is under a duty to disclose to the Company or use on behalf of the Company any information whatsoever about or derived from those activities or to account for any revenue or profits obtained in connection with such
activities. However, consistent with the DIP Commitment parties’ long-standing policy to hold in confidence the affairs of its customers, the DIP Commitment Parties agree that confidential information obtained from the Company will be treated
in accordance with the provisions of Section 9 hereof. 

6.        Assignments; Amendments; Etc. 

This Commitment Letter shall not be assignable by you without the prior written consent of each DIP Commitment Party (and any attempted
assignment without such consent shall be null and void), is intended to be solely for the benefit of the parties hereto (and Indemnitees), and is not intended to confer any benefits upon, or create any rights in favor of, any person other than the
parties hereto (and Indemnitees). No DIP Commitment Party may assign its commitment hereunder without the prior written consent of the Company (and any such attempted assignment without such prior written consent shall be null and void ab
initio); provided, however, the consent of the Company shall not be required for a DIP Commitment Party to assign its commitment hereunder to another DIP Commitment Party, an affiliate of a DIP Commitment Party, an Approved Lender

Agreement) with respect to such DIP Commitment Party (as if such DIP Commitment Party were a “Lender” under the Draft DIP Credit Agreement). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any DIP Commitment Party may cause any of

without the prior written consent of the Company and without the execution of any assignment or other similar agreement. Any and all obligations of any DIP Commitment Party hereunder may be performed and any and all rights of such DIP Commitment
Party hereunder may be exercised by or through any of its respective affiliates or branches; provided that (a) other than in connection with an assignment to an affiliate of a DIP Commitment Party, an Approved Lender or an Approved Fund
