 7.     Miscellaneous

out-of-pocket expenses incurred by each Private Placement Party in connection with the negotiation, documentation and consummation of the Transaction (including, without
limitation, any fees, charges and disbursements of legal counsel). 

  
 - 4 - 













 The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Private Placement Party, any Barings
Related Fund and its and their affiliates and controlling persons and the respective directors, officers, employees, partners, advisors, agents and other representatives of each of the foregoing and their respective successors (each, an
“Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (but excluding lost profits and opportunity costs), joint or several, to which any such indemnified person may become
subject arising out of or in connection with this Private Placement Commitment Agreement, the Transaction Documentation, the Transactions or the purchase of the New Money Issuer First Lien Issuer Notes (and, for the avoidance of doubt, not arising
out of or in connection with the Transactions generally) or any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding (a “Proceeding”) relating to any of the foregoing, regardless of whether or not any Indemnified Person is a party
thereto, or whether or not such Proceedings are brought by the Company or its equity holders, affiliates, creditors (including, without limitation, any holder of the Senior Notes) or any other person, and to reimburse each Indemnified Person within
thirty (30) days of written demand (together with reasonable backup documentation supporting such reimbursement request) for any reasonable and documented
out-of-pocket expenses (including legal expenses of one counsel and, if reasonably necessary, of one additional local counsel in any material relevant jurisdiction)
incurred in connection with investigating or defending any of the foregoing; provided, the foregoing indemnity will not, as to any Indemnified Person, apply (i) to losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses to the extent
they arise from the willful misconduct, bad faith, gross negligence or intentional material breach of this Private Placement Commitment Agreement by such Indemnified Person (or its affiliates and controlling persons and the respective directors,
officers, employees, partners, advisors, agents and other representatives of each of the foregoing) as determined in a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, and (ii) any
disputes not arising out of or relating to the Transactions or any act or omission of the Company or any of its affiliates. 
 In no event
will the Company or any of its affiliates and controlling persons and the respective directors, officers, employees, partners, advisors, agents and other representatives of each of the foregoing and their respective successors be liable on any
theory of liability for indirect, special, or consequential damages, lost profits or punitive damages in connection with this Private Placement Commitment Agreement or the purchase of the New Money Issuer First Lien Issuer Notes. 

The Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding (or expenses relating thereto) effected without the Company’s
consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), but if settled with the Company’s written consent, or if there is a final judgment against an Indemnified Person in any such proceeding, the Company agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless such Indemnified Person to the extent and in the manner set forth above. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, upon the execution of the Definitive Documents, (i) the relevant provisions of such Definitive Documents shall supersede the provisions of this Section 7 and (ii) the Company shall be
released from the provisions of this Section 7 and shall have no further liability or obligation pursuant to the provisions of this Section 7 to reimburse an Indemnified Person for losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or related expenses or any such indemnified obligations pursuant to the provisions in this Section 7.
