 COMMITMENT AGREEMENT 
 This Commitment Agreement (this “Agreement”), dated as of March 19, 2010, is made by and between Cooper-Standard
Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (as a debtor-in-possession and a reorganized debtor, as applicable, the “Company”) and the Backstop Purchasers identified on Schedule I hereto (the “Backstop Purchasers”).

 RECITALS 
 WHEREAS, the Company and each of its direct and indirect wholly-owned U.S. subsidiaries (together with the Company, the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions for relief under
Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”) and the Debtors’ cases (the
“Bankruptcy Cases”) are being jointly administered under Case No. 09-12743(PJW); 
 WHEREAS,
Cooper-Standard Automotive Canada Limited (“CSA Canada”) has commenced a proceeding (the “CCAA Proceeding”) in Canada under the Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act (Canada), R.S.C. 1985, c. C-36 (as amended, the
“CCAA”) on August 4, 2009 in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) in Toronto, Ontario (the “Canadian Bankruptcy Court”); 
 WHEREAS, on February 1, 2010, (i) the Company and certain parties entered into a Commitment Agreement (the “Original
Commitment Agreement”) and (ii) the Debtors filed a chapter 11 plan of reorganization and a disclosure statement that accompanied the Plan; 
 WHEREAS, on the date hereof, the Debtors shall file an amended chapter 11 plan of reorganization in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Plan”) and an amended
disclosure statement that will accompany the Plan in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Disclosure Statement”); 
 WHEREAS, on March 12, 2010, CSA Canada filed a plan of compromise and arrangement in the CCAA Proceeding (as may be amended in accordance with its terms, the “CCAA Plan”);

 WHEREAS, pursuant to the Plan, (i) holders of pre-petition claims with respect to Senior Notes will receive cash in the
amount necessary to make Class 5 under the Plan unimpaired (as such term is used in Section 1124 of the Bankruptcy Code), except that certain holders have agreed to accept Common Shares in lieu of cash and (ii) holders of pre-petition
claims with respect to Senior Subordinated Notes will receive 1,742,222 Common Shares, Warrants to purchase 725,926 Common Shares and, if eligible, rights (each a “Right”) to purchase 8,623,491 Common Shares (the “Rights
Offering Shares”) at a purchase price of $21.54 per share (the “Common Purchase Price”) as described herein (the “Rights Offering”) and, if not eligible, a distribution of Common Shares in respect of the
Rights they would otherwise have received; 
 WHEREAS, the Rights Offering will be conducted pursuant to the rights offering
procedures in the form to be filed with the Bankruptcy Court in connection with the Disclosure Statement relating to the Plan and attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “Rights Offering Procedures”); 







 WHEREAS, in order to facilitate the Rights Offering, pursuant to this Agreement, and subject
to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein, the Backstop Purchasers have agreed to purchase, and the Company agrees to sell, at the Common Purchase Price, an aggregate number of Common Shares equal to the number of Rights Offering
Shares that were not validly subscribed for and purchased pursuant to the Rights Offering (the “Backstop Shares”); and 
 WHEREAS, in connection with funding the Plan, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, (i) the Backstop Purchasers have agreed to purchase 2,558,182 Common Shares (the “Holdback Common
Shares”) at a purchase price of $27.07 per share (the “Holdback Purchase Price”) and 1,000,000 Preferred Shares (the “Holdback Preferred Shares” and, together with the Holdback Common Shares, the
“Holdback Shares”, and the Holdback Shares together with the Backstop Shares, the “Backstop Purchaser Shares”) at a purchase price of $100 per share (the “Preferred Purchase Price”) and (ii) the
Company has agreed to issue to the Backstop Purchasers Warrants to purchase 1,693,827 Common Shares (the “Backstop Purchaser Warrants”). 
 In consideration of the foregoing, and the representations, warranties and covenants set forth herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the Company and the Backstop Purchasers agree as follows:

 Section 1. The Rights Offering. 
 (a) Rights Exercise Period; Expiration Time . In connection with the Plan, the Company shall issue to the Eligible Subordinated Claimholders rights to purchase, on a pro rata basis, an aggregate of
8,623,491 Common Shares at a price per share equal to the Common Purchase Price. Each Right will represent a right to purchase one Common Share. The Rights Offering shall be conducted in accordance with the terms of the Rights Offering Procedures,
as follows: 
 (i) An Eligible Subordinated Claimholder may exercise all or part of the total number of Rights issued to such
Eligible Subordinated Claimholder. 
 (ii) Each Eligible Subordinated Claimholder may exercise Rights during a period (the
“Rights Exercise Period”) commencing on the date on which the solicitation of votes to approve the Plan is commenced (the “Commencement Date”) and ending on the deadline specified in the Rights Offering Procedures
(together with any extensions thereto, as specified in the Rights Offering Procedures, the “Expiration Time”) by returning to the Subscription Agent, a duly executed Subscription Form electing to exercise all or a part of such
Eligible Subordinated Claimholder’s total number of Rights and delivering to the Subscription Agent, an amount equal to the product of the Common Purchase Price and the number of Common Shares to be purchased by such Eligible Subordinated
Claimholder as a result of its election pursuant to this Section 1(a)(ii) (such sum, the “Rights Offering Escrow Amount”), by wire transfer of immediately available funds which amount shall be held in escrow by
the Subscription Agent until the Effective Date; provided, however, that the Backstop Purchasers and their affiliates shall pay the purchase price for the Common Shares to be purchased by them pursuant to this Section 1(a)(ii) at
the time when the Backstop Purchasers make a payment pursuant to Section 1(e). 
  

 2 








 (b) Oversubscription Right. Each Eligible Subordinated Claimholder that exercised all
of its Rights will have the pro rata right (the “Oversubscription Right”) to subscribe for additional Rights Offering Shares at the Common Purchase Price pursuant to the instructions set forth in the Rights Offering Procedures, to
the extent that any such shares remain available after exercise of the Rights. If the number of Rights Offering Shares that remain available after exercise of the Rights is not sufficient to satisfy all requests pursuant to the Oversubscription
Rights, the Eligible Subordinated Claimholders who exercised their Oversubscription Rights will be allocated additional Rights Offering Shares on a pro rata basis as set forth in the Rights Offering Procedures. During the Rights Exercise Period,
each Eligible Subordinated Claimholder that wishes to purchase Rights Offering Shares pursuant to its Oversubscription Right (as described below) shall indicate the number of such shares on the Subscription Form delivered pursuant to
Section 1(a)(ii). The Subscription Form shall create a binding obligation on behalf of such Eligible Subordinated Claimholder to purchase up to the amount of Rights Offering Shares indicated thereon. Not later than the second Business
Day after the Expiration Time, the Subscription Agent shall deliver to each Eligible Subordinated Claimholder a notice (an “Oversubscription Payment Notice”) setting forth the number of Rights Offering Shares which such Eligible
Subordinated Claimholder is required to purchase pursuant to such Eligible Subordinated Claimholder’s Oversubscription Rights and the aggregate purchase price therefor. Any Eligible Subordinated Claimholder that receives an Oversubscription
Payment Notice shall have until 5 p.m. New York time on the second Business Day after receipt of such Oversubscription Payment Notice (which deadline will also be set forth therein) (the “Oversubscription Payment Date”) to pay the
aggregate purchase price for the Rights Offering Shares to be acquired pursuant to the Oversubscription Rights; provided, however, that each of the Backstop Purchasers and their affiliates shall pay such aggregate purchase price for
the Rights Offering Shares to be acquired pursuant to its Oversubscription Rights at the time when the Backstop Purchasers make a payment pursuant to Section 1(e). 
 (c) Non-Eligible Subordinated Claimholders. A Subordinated Claimholder that returns an Investor Certificate to the Subscription Agent
on or prior to the Non-Eligible Noteholder Investor Certificate Deadline (as defined in the Rights Offering Procedures) certifying that it is not an Eligible Subordinated Claimholder or, if applicable, any transferee of such Subordinated Claimholder
in accordance with the Rights Offering Procedures will receive a distribution of a number of Common Shares determined after the deadline for receipt of all Investor Certificates in a manner previously agreed upon by the Debtors and the Backstop
Purchasers and which number of shares shall be filed as a Plan Supplement (as defined in the Plan). 
 (d) Issuance of
Shares. On the Effective Date, the Company will issue (i) the Rights Offering Shares to the Eligible Subordinated Claimholders which validly exercised and paid in full the aggregate purchase price for the shares to be purchased pursuant to
the Rights and Oversubscription Rights, if any, (ii) to the Backstop Purchasers which paid in full the applicable aggregate purchase price, the applicable Backstop Purchaser Shares (pro rata based on each Backstop Purchaser’s Commitment
Percentage), (iii) to the holders of Supporting Senior Notes at such time, the Supporting Note Shares (pro rata based on the amount of Supporting Senior Notes held by each such holder at such time) and (iv) the Backstop Purchaser Warrants
to the Backstop Purchasers (pro rata based on each Backstop Purchaser’s Commitment Percentage). If the exercise of a Right or Oversubscription Right or the issuance of the Backstop Purchaser Shares or the Supporting Note Shares would result in
the issuance of a fractional share, then the number of shares to be issued in respect thereof will be rounded down to the nearest whole share. 
  

 3 








 (e) Commitment Notice; Satisfaction Notice; Payment; Notice of Effective Date. The
Company will provide to each Backstop Purchaser (in accordance with the notice provisions set forth in Section 11) one Business Day after the Oversubscription Payment Date (the date so provided, the “Determination Date”) a
certificate of a duly authorized officer of the Company setting forth either: 
 (i) the number of Rights Offering Shares
(including any Rights Offering Shares to be acquired pursuant to Oversubscription Rights), Backstop Shares and Holdback Shares required to be purchased by such Backstop Purchaser and the aggregate purchase price for such shares based on the
applicable Purchase Price (such certificate, a “Commitment Notice”); or 
 (ii) in the absence of any Backstop
Shares, (A) the number of Rights Offering Shares (including any Rights Offering Shares to be acquired pursuant to Oversubscription Rights) and Holdback Shares required to be purchased by such Backstop Purchaser and the aggregate purchase price
for such shares based on the applicable Purchase Price; and (B) the fact that there are no Backstop Shares and that the Backstop Commitment is terminated (such certificate, a “Satisfaction Notice”). 
 Notwithstanding anything else contained herein to the contrary or in the Rights Offering Procedures, each Backstop Purchaser and its
affiliates shall have until 2 p.m. New York time on the third Business Day prior to the Effective Date to pay the aggregate purchase price for the shares to be acquired pursuant to the exercise of Rights and pursuant to this Agreement;
provided that if the Effective Date does not occur on the third Business Day following the date such purchase price was paid, the Company shall cause the Subscription Agent to return to the applicable Backstop Purchaser all amounts paid by
such Backstop Purchaser on the Business Day immediately following the date on which the Effective Date was to have occurred. The Company will provide notice to the Backstop Purchasers of the Effective Date at least five Business Days prior to the
Effective Date. 
 Section 2. The Purchase Commitment. 
 (a) Purchase Commitment. On the basis of the representations and warranties contained herein, and subject to the conditions set forth
in Section 7: 
 (i) Backstop Commitment; Holdback Commitment; Commitment Percentage. Each Backstop Purchaser
agrees, severally and not jointly, to subscribe for and purchase on the Effective Date, and the Company agrees to sell and issue: 
 (A) at a price per share equal to the Common Purchase Price, a number of Common Shares equal to: the product of (1) such Backstop Purchaser’s Commitment Percentage and (2) the total number of Backstop Shares (with respect to
each Backstop Purchaser, its “Backstop Commitment”); 
  

 4 








 (B) at a price per share equal to the Holdback Purchase Price, a number of Common Shares
equal to: the product of (1) such Backstop Purchaser’s Commitment Percentage and (2) the Holdback Common Shares (with respect to each Backstop Purchaser, its “Common Commitment”); and 
 (C) at a price per share equal to the Preferred Purchase Price, a number of Preferred Shares equal to: the product of (1) such Backstop
Purchaser’s Commitment Percentage and (2) the Holdback Preferred Shares (with respect to each Backstop Purchaser, its “Preferred Commitment” and, together with its Backstop Commitment and its Common Commitment, its
“Purchase Commitment”). 
 For purposes of this Agreement, a Backstop Purchaser’s “Commitment Percentage”
shall mean the percentage next to such Backstop Purchaser’s name set forth on Schedule I, which percentage represents such Backstop Purchaser’s applicable purchase obligations hereunder, subject to any adjustment pursuant to
Section 2(a)(iii) below. 
 (ii) Default Purchase Right. 
 (A) If and to the extent that any of the Backstop Purchasers does not fully and timely satisfy its obligations in respect of its Purchase
Commitment as required under Section 2(a)(i) (a “Backstop Purchaser Default” and each such Backstop Purchaser, a “Defaulting Backstop Purchaser”), then each of the remaining Backstop Purchasers (the
“Non-Defaulting Backstop Purchasers”) shall have the right (the “Default Purchase Right”) but not the obligation, to purchase on the Effective Date all or a portion of the shares that were to be purchased by such
Defaulting Backstop Purchaser (the “Default Shares”) at a price per share equal to the applicable Purchase Price. To the extent that the Non-Defaulting Backstop Purchasers (in the aggregate) desire to purchase more than the total
number of Default Shares, such Default Shares shall be allocated between the Non-Defaulting Backstop Purchasers pro rata, based on their respective Commitment Percentages. In the event of a Backstop Purchaser Default, the consummation of the Rights
Offering and the Effective Date will be deferred for a period of time, not to exceed 30 days, in order to determine any reallocation of the Purchase Commitments and, if necessary, replace the commitment of the Defaulting Backstop Purchaser. As soon
as practicable after a Backstop Purchaser Default and in any event within one Business Day following such Backstop Purchaser Default, the Company will send a notice (in accordance with the notice provisions set forth in Section 11) to
each Non-Defaulting Backstop Purchaser, specifying the number of Default Shares. The Non-Defaulting Backstop Purchasers will have 15 days from receipt of such notice to elect to exercise the Default Purchase Right by notifying the Company of its or
their election to purchase an aggregate of 100% of the Default Shares or find a third-party Reasonably Satisfactory to the Backstop Purchasers not then in default to replace the commitment of the Defaulting Backstop Purchaser. If at the conclusion
of such 15 day period, the Non-Defaulting Backstop Purchasers have not elected to exercise the Default Purchase Right in its entirety or not found a third-party to replace the commitment of the Defaulting Backstop Purchaser, the Company will have an
additional 15 days to find a third-party Reasonably Satisfactory to the Backstop Purchasers to replace any remaining commitment of the Defaulting Backstop Purchaser (after taking into account any shares acquired pursuant to the Default Purchase
Right or by a third-party identified by the Backstop Purchasers). If at the conclusion of such 15 day period, the Company has been unable to find a third-party Reasonably Satisfactory to the Backstop Purchasers to replace the remaining commitment of
the Defaulting Backstop Purchaser, then the Company may terminate this Agreement and each Non-Defaulting Backstop Purchaser may terminate its respective obligations under this Agreement. 
  

 5 








 (B) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2(a)(ii), the
parties agree that any Defaulting Backstop Purchaser will be liable to the Company and the Non-Defaulting Backstop Purchasers for the consequences of its breach and that the Company and the Non-Defaulting Backstop Purchasers can enforce their rights
pursuant to Section 19 immediately upon such Defaulting Backstop Purchaser’s failure to fully and timely satisfy its obligations in respect of its Purchase Commitment as required under Section 2(a)(i). 
 (iii) Adjustment of Commitment Percentage. The Commitment Percentage for any Defaulting Backstop Purchaser shall be reduced to zero.
The Commitment Percentage for the Non-Defaulting Backstop Purchasers exercising the Default Purchase Right shall be increased proportionately to reflect the reallocation of the Defaulting Backstop Purchaser’s Commitment Percentage among the
Non-Defaulting Backstop Purchasers exercising the Default Purchase Right (such that the total Commitment Percentage for the Non-Defaulting Backstop Purchasers, plus the percentage of Default Shares, if any, allocated to a third party in accordance
with Section 2(a)(ii), shall always equal 100%). 
 (b) Commitment Premium. 
 (i) On the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained, on the Effective Date the Company shall pay to the Non-Defaulting
Backstop Purchasers an aggregate amount equal to $12,425,000 (the “Commitment Premium”) to compensate the Backstop Purchasers for this equity commitment and the related costs (including the opportunity costs) incurred hereby,
subject to the entry of the Approval Order. The Commitment Premium shall be paid in U.S. dollars, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Backstop Purchasers to the Company (such accounts to be provided no
less than two Business Days prior to the date of such payment), provided, however, that no Commitment Premium will be payable to a Backstop Purchaser that is in material breach of its obligations under this Agreement, including a Defaulting Backstop
Purchaser. The Commitment Premium shall be allocated among and paid to each Non-Defaulting Backstop Purchaser in accordance with its Commitment Percentage (as such Commitment Percentage may have been adjusted or reallocated pursuant to this
Agreement). The Commitment Premium will be nonrefundable when paid. 
 (ii) Subject to the entry of the Approval Order, the
Company shall pay to the Non-Defaulting Backstop Purchasers the Commitment Premium in U.S. dollars, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Backstop Purchasers to the Company (such accounts to be provided no
less than two Business Days prior to the date of such payment) within two Business Days after the earlier of: (A) the termination of this Agreement, if this Agreement is terminated for any reason by any person other than pursuant to
Section 10(d)(ii); or (B) the entry of an order by the Bankruptcy Court approving an Alternative Transaction, if none of the Backstop Purchasers is in material breach of its obligations under this Agreement (other than (x) a
breach by a Defaulting Backstop Purchaser if the Non-Defaulting Backstop Purchasers or any other Persons have agreed to or arranged for the purchase of all the Default Shares or (y) a breach by a Backstop Purchaser of its obligation pursuant to
Section 6 in connection with such Backstop Purchaser participating or seeking to participate (an “Alternative Financing Breach”) in a capital raising transaction that does not contemplate or is inconsistent with the Rights
Offering (an “Alternative Transaction”)), and provided that in connection with an Alternative Financing Breach the Commitment Premium shall only be payable to those Backstop Purchasers not then in breach and only based on such
Backstop Purchaser’s Commitment Percentage prior to reallocating the Commitment Percentage of the breaching Backstop Purchasers, unless those Backstop Purchasers not then in breach have agreed to such reallocation with the Company (regardless
of whether the Company or a Backstop Purchaser terminates this Agreement). The Commitment Premium shall be allocated between and paid to each Non-Defaulting Backstop Purchaser in accordance with its Commitment Percentage (as such Commitment
Percentage may have been adjusted or reallocated pursuant to this Agreement). The Commitment Premium will be nonrefundable when paid. 
  

 6 








 (iii) For the avoidance of doubt, if the Commitment Premium is paid pursuant to
Section 2(b)(i), it shall not be payable pursuant to Section 2(b)(ii), and if the Commitment Premium is paid pursuant to Section 2(b)(ii), it shall not be payable pursuant to Section 2(b)(i).

 (c) Transaction Expenses. Except as otherwise provided herein the Company will reimburse or pay, as the case may be,
the documented fees and expenses reasonably incurred by the Backstop Purchasers with respect to the negotiation, documentation and execution of the transactions and agreements contemplated by the Original Commitment Agreement, this Agreement, the
Ancillary Agreements and the Plan (the “Transactions”) and the enforcement, attempted enforcement or preservation of any rights or remedies contemplated hereunder and by the Bankruptcy Cases or CCAA Proceeding, including the filing
fee, if any, required by the HSR Act and expenses related thereto, any other merger control filings and approvals required by Law related to the placement of shares with the Backstop Purchasers and expenses related thereto, all Bankruptcy Court
and other judicial and regulatory proceedings related to the Transactions, including, but not limited to all reasonable and documented fees, expenses and costs relating to the CCAA Proceeding or any other insolvency proceeding related to or
involving CSA Canada, and including all reasonable and documented fees and expenses of Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP and OHorizons LLC, along with the other counsel and other parties identified
on Schedule II, together with the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of any other professionals to be retained by the Backstop Purchasers with the prior approval of the Company (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) in
connection with the Transactions (collectively, “Transaction Expenses”). The Transaction Expenses related to reasonable and documented fees and expenses of the professionals and advisors for the Backstop Purchasers shall be payable
by the Company as follows: (i) within ten days of presentation of an invoice approved by the Backstop Purchasers, 80% of the Transaction Expenses set forth on such invoice will be payable; and (ii) the remaining 20% of the Transaction
Expenses set forth on such invoice will be payable at the end of the quarter in which such invoice was presented, in each case without Bankruptcy Court review or further Bankruptcy Court order, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are
consummated; provided, however, that (i) all Transaction Expenses outstanding as of the date the Approval Order is entered shall be paid promptly upon entry of the Approval Order and (ii) all Transaction Expenses outstanding
on the Effective Date shall be paid on the Effective Date simultaneously with the consummation of the Plan, the Rights Offering and the CCAA Plan. These obligations are in addition to, and do not limit, the Company’s obligations under
Section 8. The provision of payment of the Transaction Expenses and the Commitment Premium is an integral part of the Transactions, without which the Backstop Purchasers would not have entered into this Agreement, and shall constitute an
administrative expense of the Debtors under sections 364(c)(1), 503(b) and 507(a)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this paragraph is intended to limit the Debtors’ obligations pursuant to the Backstop
Commitment Fees and Expenses Approval Order. The Company has determined in the exercise of its fiduciary duties that the Transactions will provide a meaningful and substantial benefit to the Debtors, their respective estates and stakeholders, and
the Bankruptcy Cases. In the event that the Approval Order is not entered by the Bankruptcy Court because the Debtors elect to pursue an Alternative Transaction, the Company shall support any application by the Backstop Purchasers pursuant to
section 503(b)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code to obtain allowance and payment of any unpaid Transaction Expenses as an administrative expense.

(“GAAP”) applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods covered thereby (subject to year-end audit adjustments and except as disclosed in the notes thereto, all of which, when taken as a whole, would not reasonably be expected
to result in a Material Adverse Effect). The Financial Statements have been derived from the accounting records of the Company and its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Backstop Purchasers acknowledge that the financial position of
the Company reflected in the financial information included or incorporated by reference in the Disclosure Statement and the Commission Documents does not reflect implementation of “fresh start” accounting pursuant to Statement of

assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations; (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to
maintain asset accountability; (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization; and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at

Agreement, when they became effective or were filed with the Commission, as the case may be, or, if amended prior to the date hereof, when they were so amended, conformed in all material respects to the requirements of the Exchange Act. None of such
Commission Documents contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading. Any future documents, when such documents are filed with the Commission will conform in all material respects to the requirements of the Exchange Act, and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

included in such Disclosure Statement and other documents at the request of any third parties in interest (other than the Debtors, their affiliates and their representatives) in the chapter 11 cases. 
 (ii) The projections that have been prepared and made available to the Backstop Purchasers by the Debtors or any of their respective
representatives have been and shall be prepared in good faith based upon reasonable assumptions at the time made, and as of the date when such projections were delivered to the Backstop Purchasers, the Debtors did not have any knowledge of any
material fact or information that would lead them (or any one of them) to believe that such assumptions are incorrect or misleading in any material respect (it being understood and acknowledged by the Backstop Purchasers that projections are subject
to uncertainties and contingencies and that actual results may differ in a material respect from such projections). 
 (o)
Absence of Certain Changes. Since September 30, 2009, other than as disclosed in the Commission Documents or the Disclosure Schedule:

agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it under this Agreement on or prior to the Effective Date, where, in the case of (i) and (ii), such discovery, occurrence or failure would permit the Backstop Purchasers to terminate this Agreement

 (t) Certain Benefit Plans. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to
obtain, not later than one week after the entry of the Approval Order, from each participant in the Company’s Change of Control Severance Pay Plan, such participant’s written agreement, pursuant to a form of agreement to be agreed between
the parties, that (i) any rights of such participant to terminate employment for “good reason” will not be triggered under such participant’s employment agreement with the Company and (ii) the change of control provisions
(including without limitation any right of such participant to terminate employment for “good reason” and any Company funding obligation) will not be triggered under such employment agreement, the Company’s Change of Control Severance
Pay Plan, Nonqualified Supplementary Benefit Plan (SERP), Deferred Compensation Plan and Pre-2005 Executive Deferred Compensation Plan, in each case as a result of (x) the Company’s emergence from Chapter 11 as contemplated by the Plan,
(y) the execution and delivery of this Agreement or (z) the consummation of the transactions provided in this Agreement and/or the Plan (or otherwise contemplated by this Agreement and/or the Plan to occur prior to or on or about the
Effective Date); provided that the waiver set forth in this clause (ii) shall not apply if a Backstop Purchaser (A) enters into any written shareholder or voting agreement (other than this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements or the Plan),

or acquisition by a Backstop Purchaser or its affiliates in its broker/dealer, market making, flow trading or other non-proprietary trading activities), or (C) assigns this Agreement or its obligations hereunder pursuant to
Section 12 of this Agreement, in the case of each of clauses (A), (B) and (C), only if such action would result in such Backstop Purchaser having beneficial ownership of greater than or equal to 50% of the total voting power of the
Company’s voting power upon emergence; provided further, that such waiver shall not apply with respect to any rights under Section 7 of the Change of Control Severance Pay Plan in the event that an excise tax is imposed by the IRS pursuant
to Section 4999 of the Code by reason of a payment (which is made following an event that the Company reasonably and in good faith determines would have constituted a “change of control” for purposes of such participant’s
entitlement to payments under such plan, had such participant not executed such waiver) that the IRS asserts is “contingent on a change of control” of the Company within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, despite the reasonable
best efforts of the Company to withstand such assertion, where appropriate. For purposes of clarification, (i) neither (a) the agreements and arrangements involving Backstop Purchasers that are contemplated by this Agreement or the Plan to
occur or exist prior to, on or about the Effective Date nor (b) any agreements or arrangements by Backstop Purchasers at any time prior to, on or after the Effective Date to dispose of any or all of their securities of the Company shall be
taken into account in determining whether such Backstop Purchasers constitute a “group” for purposes of the change of control provisions in the employment agreements and the plans referred to in the first sentence of this
Section 5(t) and (ii) the acquisition by any person of any equity interest in the Company at any time following the issuance of Backstop Purchaser Shares, Rights Offering Shares and Warrants (including the Backstop Purchaser
Warrants) pursuant to the Plan (other than any acquisition from any Backstop Purchaser that is agreed to between such Backstop Purchaser and its transferee or assignee and consummated on or about the Effective Date) shall not be deemed a transaction
provided for in this Agreement or the Plan. The Company shall notify each such participant, pursuant to such participant’s written agreement, that the Plan will provide that the “change of control” provisions will not be triggered
under the employment agreement and the plans set forth in clause (ii) of the first sentence of this Section 5(t) under the circumstances described in this Section 5(t).

shall this Section 6(c) obligate any Backstop Purchaser to dispose or hold separate any of its assets. The Backstop Purchasers shall not have any material obligation to make payments or any concessions to any third party in connection
with obtaining any consents or approvals. Each Backstop Purchaser shall (A) promptly supply the Company with any information which may be required in order to obtain approval under the HSR Act or the merger control rules of any other
jurisdiction or jurisdictions in which approval is required by Law related to the placement of Common Shares and Preferred Shares with the Backstop Purchasers, and (B) respond as promptly as practicable to any inquiries received from any

hereunder or similar qualifications shall be true and correct (without giving effect to any limitation or qualifications as to materiality) in each case, as of the date hereof and at and as of the Effective Date (except for representations and
warranties made as of a specific date, which shall be true and correct only as of the specified date), except to the extent that the failure of such representations or warranties to be so true and correct as of such dates, individually or in the
aggregate, would not have a material adverse effect on the Backstop Purchaser’s performance of its obligations hereunder, and the representations and warranties that are qualified as to material adverse effect on the Backstop Purchaser’s
performance of its obligations hereunder or similar qualifications shall be true and correct in all respects, in each case, as of the date hereof at and as of the Effective Date as if made at and as of the Effective Date (except for representations
and warranties made as of a specified date, which shall be true and correct only as of the specified date), and each Backstop Purchaser shall have, in all material respects, complied with all of the obligations, covenants and conditions to be
performed or complied with in this Agreement applicable to it, except as a result of any breach of representations, warranties or covenants by a Defaulting Backstop Purchaser to the extent that the Non-Defaulting Backstop Purchasers or a third party
purchase all Default Shares pursuant to Section 2(a)(ii). 
 (vii) Consents and Approvals. If the purchase of
Common Shares and Preferred Shares by the Backstop Purchasers pursuant to this Agreement is subject to the terms of the HSR Act or merger control clearance in the jurisdictions set forth on Schedule 7(a)(ix) of the Disclosure Schedule, the
applicable waiting period shall have expired or been terminated or the requisite clearance shall have been obtained, as applicable, with respect to such purchase. All other material notifications, filings, consents, waivers and approvals of or by
any Governmental Authority required in connection with the consummation of the Transactions or as contemplated by this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements shall have been made or obtained and remain in full force and effect.

Backstop Purchaser confirming that, with respect to such Backstop Purchaser, the conditions set forth in Section 7(b)(vi) herein have been satisfied. 
  

 48 








 Section 8. Indemnification. 
 (a) Indemnification Generally. Subject to the approval of this Agreement by the Bankruptcy Court, whether or not the Rights Offering
is consummated or this Agreement or the Purchase Commitment of any Backstop Purchaser is terminated, the Company (in such capacity, the “Indemnifying Party”) shall indemnify and hold harmless the Backstop Purchasers and their
respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, counsel, representatives, controlling Persons and affiliates (each an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and
reasonable expenses, joint or several (“Losses”), to which any such Indemnified Person may become subject arising out of or in connection with any claim, challenge, litigation, investigation or proceeding with respect to the Rights
Offering, the Purchase Commitments, this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements or the Transactions, including without limitation, payment of the Commitment Premium, distribution of Rights, purchase and sale of Common Shares in the Rights Offering and
purchase and sale of Common Shares and Preferred Shares pursuant to the Purchase Commitments or any breach of the Company of this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements (a “Claim”), regardless of whether any of such Indemnified
Persons is a party thereto, and to reimburse such Indemnified Persons for any reasonable legal or other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses as they are incurred in connection with investigating, responding to or defending any of the foregoing,
provided, however, that the foregoing indemnification will not, as to any Indemnified Person, apply to Losses to the extent that they are finally judicially determined to have resulted from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful
misconduct on the part of such Indemnified Person or have resulted from a material breach by such Indemnified Person of the terms of this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements. If for any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to any
Indemnified Person or insufficient to hold it harmless, then the Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such Loss in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the
relative benefits received by the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and such Indemnified Person on the other hand but also the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Person, on the other hand, as well as any
relevant equitable considerations. It is hereby agreed that the relative benefits to the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and all Indemnified Persons on the other hand shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as (i) the total value
received or proposed to be received by the Company pursuant to the sale of Common Shares and Preferred Shares contemplated by this Agreement bears to (ii) the Commitment Premium payable to the Backstop Purchasers. The Indemnifying Party also
agrees that no Indemnified Person shall have any liability based on their comparative or contributory negligence or otherwise to the Indemnifying Party, any person asserting claims on behalf of or in right of any of the Indemnifying Party, or any
other person in connection with any Claim, except as to any Indemnified Person to the extent that any Losses incurred by the Company are finally judicially determined to have resulted from bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such
Indemnified Person in performing the services that are the subject of this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements; provided, however, that in no event shall an Indemnified Person or such other parties have any liability for any
indirect, consequential or punitive damages in connection with or as a result of any of their activities related to the foregoing. Furthermore, the Company hereby agrees that it shall not seek indirect, consequential or punitive damages as a result
of any breach of the terms hereof. The indemnity, reimbursement and contribution obligations of the Indemnifying Party under this Section 8 shall be in addition to any liability that the Indemnifying Party may otherwise have to an
Indemnified Person and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the Indemnifying Party and any Indemnified Person. 
  

 49 








 (b) Certain Procedures. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person of notice of
the commencement of a Claim (a “Proceeding”), such Indemnified Person will, if a claim is to be made hereunder against the Indemnifying Party in respect thereof, promptly (and in any event within ten Business Days) notify the
Indemnifying Party in writing of the commencement thereof; provided that (i) the omission so to notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve it from any liability that it may have hereunder except to the extent it has been materially
prejudiced by such failure and (ii) the omission so to notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an Indemnified Person otherwise than on account of this Section 8. In case any such
Proceedings are brought against any Indemnified Person and it notifies the Indemnifying Party of the commencement thereof, the Indemnifying Party will be entitled to participate therein, and, to the extent that it may elect by written notice
delivered to such Indemnified Person, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, provided that if the defendants in any such Proceedings include both such Indemnified Person and the
Indemnifying Party and such Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party, such Indemnified Person shall have
the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such Proceedings on behalf of such Indemnified Person. Upon receipt of notice from the Indemnifying Party to such Indemnified Person of
its election so to assume the defense of such Proceedings and approval by such Indemnified Person of counsel, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to such Indemnified Person for expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with
the defense thereof (other than reasonable costs of investigation) unless (i) such Indemnified Person shall have employed separate counsel in connection with the assertion of legal defenses in accordance with the preceding sentence (it being
understood, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel in addition to local counsel, approved by the Required Backstop Purchasers, representing the Indemnified Persons who are parties
to such Proceedings), (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person to represent such Indemnified Person within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the Proceedings
or (iii) the Indemnifying Party shall have authorized in writing the employment of counsel for such Indemnified Person. 
 (c) Limitations. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any Proceedings effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). If any settlement of any Proceeding is
consummated with the written consent of the Indemnifying Party or if there is a Final Order for the plaintiff in any such Proceedings, the Indemnifying Party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person from and against any and all
Losses by reason of such settlement or judgment in accordance with, and subject to the limitations of, the provisions of this Section 8. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 8 to the contrary, if at any time an
Indemnified Person shall have requested the Indemnifying Party to reimburse such Indemnified Person for legal or other expenses in connection with investigating, responding to or defending any Proceedings as contemplated by this
Section 8, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for any settlement of any Proceedings effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 60 days after receipt by the Indemnifying Party of
such request for reimbursement and (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall not have reimbursed such Indemnified Person in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written
consent of an Indemnified Person (which consent shall be granted or withheld in the Indemnified Party’s sole discretion), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Proceedings in respect of which indemnity has been sought hereunder by
such Indemnified Person unless (a) such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person in form and substance satisfactory to such Indemnified Person from all liability on the claims that are the subject matter of such
Proceedings without the payment by any Indemnified Person of any amounts or the imposition of any non-monetary penalty or obligation and (b) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or
on behalf of any Indemnified Person. 
  

 50

breach or failure to perform, and (z) has not been waived with the Consent of the Backstop Purchasers; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10(c)(iv) shall not be
available to the Backstop Purchasers if any of the Backstop Purchasers is then in breach with respect to any of its representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement and such breach or failure to perform would
give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 7(b)(vi) to be satisfied as of the Effective Date; or (B) in accordance with Section 2(a)(ii). 
  

 51

Effective Date (including in accordance with Section 2(a)(ii)), (B) cannot be or has not been cured by June 11, 2010 following delivery by the Company to such Backstop Purchaser of written notice of such breach or failure to
perform, and (C) has not been waived by the Company; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10(d)(ii) shall not be available if the Company’s failure to fulfill any

purchase all of the Default Shares in accordance with Section 2(a)(ii) herein, a breach by any Defaulting Backstop Purchaser shall not give rise to a right to terminate this Agreement.

 Section 12. Assignment; Third Party Beneficiaries. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights,
interests or obligations under this Agreement will be assigned by any of the parties (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other party. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, this Agreement, or the
Backstop Purchasers’ obligations hereunder, may be assigned, delegated or transferred, in whole or in part, by the Backstop Purchasers to any Person; provided that any such assignee assumes the obligations of the Backstop Purchasers hereunder
and agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement in the same manner as the Backstop Purchasers. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provisions herein, no such assignment will relieve such Backstop Purchaser of its obligations
hereunder, other than in the case of any assignment by a Backstop Purchaser to any Person in respect of which the Company has provided its written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld). A Backstop Purchaser seeking the
Company’s consent to an assignment in accordance with the preceding sentence shall notify the Creditors’ Committee (as defined in the Plan) that it is seeking such consent promptly after making a consent request to the Company. Any such
assignee will be required to pay the applicable purchase price for shares purchased pursuant to the exercise of Rights under Section 1(a) as provided in such section and any amounts payable upon the exercise of Oversubscription Rights
under Section 1(b) and with respect to the Holdback Shares and Backstop Shares by 2:00 p.m., New York time on the second Business Day after receipt of the Commitment Notice or Satisfaction Notice (which deadline will be set forth
therein). Except as provided in Section 8 with respect to the Indemnified Parties, this Agreement (including the documents and instruments referred to in this Agreement) is not intended to and does not confer upon any person other than
the parties hereto any rights or remedies under this Agreement. 
 Section 13. Prior Negotiations; Entire Agreement. This Agreement
(including Schedules and Exhibits attached hereto and the Ancillary Agreements) constitutes the entire agreement of the parties and supersedes all prior agreements, arrangements or understandings, whether written or oral, between the parties with
respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, except that the parties hereto acknowledge that any confidentiality agreements heretofore executed among the parties will continue in full force and effect. 
 Section 14. GOVERNING LAW; VENUE. THIS AGREEMENT, AND ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING THERETO, WILL BE GOVERNED AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (EXCLUDING CONFLICT OF LAWS RULES AND PRINCIPLES). THE BACKSTOP PURCHASERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMIT TO THE JURISDICTION OF, AND VENUE IN, THE UNITED STATES BANKRUPTCY COURT FOR THE DISTRICT
OF DELAWARE AND WAIVE ANY OBJECTION BASED ON FORUM NON CONVENIENS. 
 Section 15. Counterparts. This Agreement may be
executed in any number of counterparts, all of which will be considered one and the same agreement and will become effective when counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other party (including via facsimile or other
electronic transmission), it being understood that each party need not sign the same counterpart. 
  

 55 








 Section 16. Waivers and Amendments. This Agreement (including the exhibits and schedules hereto)
may be amended, modified, superseded, cancelled, renewed or extended, and the terms and conditions of this Agreement may be waived, only by a written instrument signed by the Company and such Backstop Purchasers that constitute a Consent of the
Backstop Purchasers, and, to the extent required, the approval of the Bankruptcy Court; provided, however, that any amendment, modification, supersession, cancellation, renewal, extension or waiver that (i) disproportionately
affects any Backstop Purchaser in a material and adverse manner in relation to the other Backstop Purchasers or (ii) changes a Backstop Purchaser’s Commitment Percentage (other than changes expressly contemplated by this Agreement) or the
dollar amount payable pursuant to the Purchase Commitment of a Backstop Purchaser (other than changes expressly contemplated by this Agreement) shall not, in each case, be effective with respect to such Backstop Purchaser without such Backstop
Purchaser’s prior written consent. Each Backstop Purchaser may grant or withhold such Backstop Purchaser’s written consent to any amendment, modification, supersedence, cancellation, renewal or extension pursuant to the prior sentence in
its sole discretion. No delay on the part of any party in exercising any right, power or privilege pursuant to this Agreement will operate as a waiver thereof, nor will any waiver on the part of any party of any right, power or privilege pursuant to
this Agreement, nor will any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege pursuant to this Agreement, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege pursuant to this Agreement.
The rights and remedies provided pursuant to this Agreement are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies which any party otherwise may have at law or in equity. 
 Section 17. Interpretation and Construction. This Agreement has been freely and fairly negotiated among the parties. If an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this
Agreement will be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties and no presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring any party because of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement. Capitalized terms used in this
Agreement and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in Schedule III. Unless the context requires otherwise, any agreements, documents, instruments or Laws defined or referred to in this Agreement will
be deemed to mean or refer to such agreements, documents, instruments or Laws as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including (a) in the case of agreements, documents or instruments, by waiver or consent and (b) in the
case of Laws, by succession of comparable successor statutes; provided that with respect to any agreement, document or instrument listed on any Schedules hereto, all such amendments, modifications or supplements must also be listed in the
appropriate Schedule. All references in this Agreement to any particular Law will be deemed to refer also to any rules and regulations promulgated under that Law. The words “include,” “includes” and “including” will be
deemed to be followed by “without limitation.” References to a person are also to its permitted successors and assigns. Pronouns in masculine, feminine and neuter genders will be construed to include any other gender, and words in the
singular form will be construed to include the plural and vice versa, unless the context requires otherwise. When a reference in this Agreement is made to an Article, Section, Exhibit, Annex or Schedule, such reference is to an Article or Section
of, or Exhibit, Annex or Schedule to, this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The words “this Agreement,” “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereunder” and words of similar import refer to this
Agreement as a whole and not to any particular subdivision unless expressly so limited. If any party has breached any representation, warranty or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty
or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which the party has not breached will not detract from or mitigate the fact that the party is in breach of the first representation, warranty or
covenant. With regard to all dates and time periods set forth or referred to in this Agreement, time is of the essence. 
  

 56 








 Section 18. Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and will
not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. 
 Section 19. Specific Performance. The parties acknowledge
and agree that any breach of the terms of this Agreement would give rise to irreparable harm for which money damages would not be an adequate remedy, and, accordingly, the parties agree that, in addition to any other remedies, each will be entitled
to enforce the terms of this Agreement by a decree of specific performance without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages as a remedy and without the necessity of posting bond. 
 Section 20. Damages. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the parties to this Agreement waive their rights to claim or
otherwise seek consequential, special or punitive damages or lost profits. 
 Section 21. Severability. In the event any one or more
of the provisions contained in this Agreement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired
thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties shall endeavor in good-faith
negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. 
 Section 22. Certain Information. Each party to this Agreement agrees to comply with the reasonable request of another party hereto to provide an
appropriate Form W-8 or Form W-9, or other applicable Tax form. 
 Section 23. Barclays Broker-Dealer. The parties acknowledge that
Barclays Capital, Inc. is acting solely as agent for its affiliate, Barclays Bank PLC for purposes of Rule 15a-6 under the Exchange Act. Barclays Bank PLC is solely responsible for all of its representations and warranties and all payment and
performance obligations hereunder, and Barclays Capital, Inc. is not responsible for any such obligations. 
 Section 24. Termination of
Original Commitment Agreement. Effective upon the execution of this Agreement, the Company and the Backstop Purchasers party to that certain Commitment Agreement, dated as of February 1, 2010 (the “Original Commitment
Agreement”), hereby agree that the Original Commitment Agreement is hereby terminated by the mutual written consent of the Company and each of the Backstop Purchasers party thereto pursuant to and in accordance with Section 10(b) of
the Original Commitment Agreement without any liability on the part of any party thereto or hereto.
