CORNERSTONE INVESTMENT AGREEMENT, dated as of March 31,
2010 (this “Agreement”), by and between General Growth Properties, Inc.,
a Delaware corporation (“GGP”), and REP Investments LLC, a Delaware
limited liability company (together with its permitted assigns, “Purchaser”).


 


RECITALS


 


WHEREAS, GGP is a debtor in
possession in that certain bankruptcy case under chapter 11 (“Chapter 11”)
of Title 11 of the United States Code, 11 U.S.C. §§ 101 -1532 (as amended, the
“Bankruptcy Code”) filed on April 16, 2009 (the “Petition Date”)
in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York
(the “Bankruptcy Court”), Case No. 09-11977 (ALG).


 


WHEREAS, Purchaser desires to assist
GGP in its plans to recapitalize and emerge from bankruptcy and has agreed to
sponsor the implementation of a joint chapter 11 plan of reorganization based
on the Plan Summary Term Sheet (as defined below) (together with all documents
and agreements that form part of such plan or related plan supplement or are
related thereto, and as it may be amended, modified or supplemented from time
to time, in each case, to the extent it relates to the implementation and
effectuation of the Plan Summary Term Sheet and this Agreement, the “Plan”),
of GGP and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates who are debtors and
debtors-in-possession (the “Debtors”) in the chapter 11 cases pending
and jointly administered in the Bankruptcy Court (the “Bankruptcy Cases”).


 


WHEREAS, principal elements of the
Plan (including a table setting forth the proposed treatment of allowed claims
and equity interests in the Bankruptcy Cases) are set forth on Exhibit A
hereto (the “Plan Summary Term Sheet”).


 


WHEREAS, the Plan shall provide,
among other things, that (i) each holder of common stock, par value $0.01
per share, of GGP (the “Common Stock”) shall receive, in exchange for
each share of Common Stock held by such holder, one share (subject to
adjustment as contemplated by Section 5.13(a) hereof) of new
common stock (the “New Common Stock”) of a new company that succeeds to
GGP in the manner contemplated by Exhibit B upon consummation of
the Plan (the “Reorganized Company”) and (ii) any Equity Securities
(other than Common Stock) of the Company (as defined below) or any of its
Subsidiaries (as defined below) outstanding immediately after the Effective
Date that were previously convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for,
Common Stock shall thereafter be convertible into, or exercisable or
exchangeable for, New Common Stock (based upon the number of shares of Common
Stock underlying such Equity Securities) (the transactions contemplated by
clauses (i) and (ii) of this recital being referred to herein as the
“Equity Exchange”). For purposes of this Agreement, the “Company”
shall be deemed to refer, prior to consummation of the Plan, to GGP and, on and
after consummation of the Plan, the Reorganized Company, as the context
requires.


 


WHEREAS, Purchaser desires to make an
investment in the Reorganized Company on the terms and subject to the
conditions described herein in the form of the purchase of shares of New Common
Stock as contemplated hereby.


 

















 


WHEREAS, in addition to the Equity
Exchange and the sale of the Shares (as defined below), the Plan shall provide
for the incorporation by the Company of a new subsidiary, General Growth
Opportunities, Inc. (“GGO”), the contribution of certain assets
(and/or equity interests related thereto) of the Company to GGO and the
assumption by GGO of the liabilities associated with such assets, the
distribution to the shareholders of the Company (subject to adjustment as
contemplated by Section 5.13(b) hereof and prior to the
issuance of the Shares and the issuance of other shares of New Common Stock
contemplated by this Agreement other than pursuant to the Equity Exchange) on a
pro rata basis and certain holders of UPREIT Units of all of the capital stock
of GGO and the consummation of the GGO Rights Offering (as described herein).


 


WHEREAS, the Company has requested
that Purchaser commit to purchase the Shares and the GGO Shares at a fixed
price for the term hereof.


 


WHEREAS, Purchaser has agreed to enter into this
Agreement and commit to purchase the Shares and the GGO Shares only on the
condition that the Company, as promptly as practicable following the date
hereof (but no later than the date provided in Section 5.2 hereof),
issue the Warrants contemplated herein and perform its other obligations
hereunder.


 


WHEREAS, on the date hereof, the
Company entered into an agreement (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C-1
together with any amendments thereto as have been approved by Purchaser, the “Fairholme
Agreement”) with The Fairholme Fund and The Fairholme Focused Income Fund
(the “Fairholme Investors”) pursuant to which the Fairholme Investors
have agreed to make (i) an investment of up to $2,713,200,000 in the
Reorganized Company in the form of the purchase of shares of New Common Stock
and (ii) an investment of up to $62,500,000 in GGO in the form of the
purchase of shares of GGO Common Stock pursuant to a commitment to backstop a
portion of the GGO Rights Offering.


 


WHEREAS, on the date hereof, the
Company entered into an agreement (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C-2
together with any amendments thereto as have been approved by Purchaser, the “Pershing
Agreement” and, together with the Fairholme Agreement, the “Fairholme/Pershing
Agreements”) with Pershing Square, L.P., Pershing Square II, L.P., Pershing
Square International, Ltd. and Pershing Square International V, Ltd. (the “Pershing
Investors” and, together with the Fairholme Investors, the “Fairholme/Pershing
Investors”) pursuant to which the Pershing Investors have agreed to make (i) an
investment of up to $1,086,800,000 in the Reorganized Company in the form of
the purchase of shares of New Common Stock and (ii) an investment of up to
$62,500,000 in GGO in the form of the purchase of shares of GGO Common Stock
pursuant to a commitment to backstop a portion of the GGO Rights Offering.


 


NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the
premises, and of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set
forth herein, the parties agree as follows:

(a)           On the terms and subject to
the conditions set forth herein, at the Closing (as defined below), Purchaser
shall purchase from the Company, and the Company shall sell to Purchaser,
250,000,000 shares of New Common Stock minus the Conversion Shares, if any (the
“Shares”), for a price per share equal to $10.00 (the “Per Share
Purchase Price” and, in the aggregate, the “Purchase Price”).


 


(b)           All Shares shall be
delivered with any and all issue, stamp, transfer or similar taxes or duties
payable in connection with such delivery duly paid by the Company to the extent
required under the Confirmation Order or applicable Law.


 


(c)           Purchaser, in its sole
discretion, may designate that some or all of the Shares be issued in the name
of, and delivered to, one or more Brookfield Consortium Members, subject to (i) such
action not causing any delay in the obtaining of, or significantly increasing
the risk of not obtaining, any material authorizations, consents, orders,
declarations or approvals necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement or otherwise delaying the consummation of such transactions, (ii) such
Person shall be an “accredited investor” (within the meaning of Rule 501
of Regulation D under the Securities Act) and shall have agreed in writing with
and for the benefit of the Company to be bound by the terms of this Agreement
applicable to Purchaser set forth in Section 6.4, including the
delivery of the letter certifying compliance with the representations and
covenants set forth on Exhibit D to the extent applicable and (iii) Purchaser
not being relieved of any of its obligations under this Agreement ((i), (ii) and
(iii) collectively, the “Designation Conditions”).


 


SECTION 1.2         Closing. Subject to
the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions (excluding conditions that, by
their nature, cannot be satisfied until the Closing, but subject to the
satisfaction or waiver of those conditions as of the Closing) set forth in Article VII
and Article VIII, the closing of the purchase of the Shares by
Purchaser pursuant hereto (the “Closing”) shall occur at 9:30 a.m.,
New York time, on the effective date of the Plan (the “Effective Date”),

the parties. The date of the Closing is referred to as the “Closing Date”.
Each of the Company and Purchaser hereby agree that in no event shall the

SECTION 1.3         Company Rights Offering
Election. The Company may at any time prior to the date of
filing of the Disclosure Statement, upon written notice to Purchaser in
accordance with the terms hereof (the “Rights Offering Election”),
irrevocably elect to convert the obligation of Purchaser to purchase the Shares
as contemplated by Section 1.1 hereof into an obligation of
Purchaser to participate in a rights offering by the Company pursuant to which
shareholders and/or creditors of the Company are offered rights to subscribe
for shares of New


 


3

















 


Common Stock (a “Company
Rights Offering”), subject to the execution and delivery of definitive
documentation therefor and the satisfaction of the conditions described therein
and other customary conditions for a public rights offering. To the extent the
Company makes a Rights Offering Election, (i) Purchaser shall be entitled
to a minimum allocation of shares of New Common Stock in the Company Rights
Offering equal to the number of shares Purchaser would otherwise be required to
purchase pursuant to Section 1.1 hereof had no such election been
made, (ii) the purchase price per share payable by Purchaser shall be
equal to the Per Share Purchase Price and Purchaser shall not be otherwise
adversely affected as compared to the transactions contemplated hereby, (iii) the
Company Rights Offering shall be effected in a manner substantially consistent
with the procedures contemplated by Section 2.2 with respect to the
GGO Rights Offering, provided that the Company Rights Offering shall be
completed by the Effective Date, and (iv) the Company and Purchaser shall
cooperate in good faith to develop and agree upon documentation that is
reasonably acceptable to both the Company and Purchaser governing the further
terms and conditions of the Company Rights Offering.


 


ARTICLE II


 


GGO SHARE DISTRIBUTION AND GGO RIGHTS OFFERING


 


SECTION 2.1         GGO Share Distribution. On the terms
and subject to the conditions (including Bankruptcy Court approval) set forth
herein, the Plan shall provide for the following:


 


(a)           On or prior to the Effective
Date, the Company shall incorporate GGO with issued and outstanding capital
stock consisting of at least the GGO Common Share Amount of shares of common
stock (the “GGO Common Stock”), designate an employee of the Company
familiar with the Identified Assets and reasonably acceptable to Purchaser to
serve as a representative of GGO (the “GGO Representative”) and shall
contribute to GGO (directly or indirectly) the assets (and/or equity interests
related thereto) set forth in Exhibit E hereto and have GGO assume
directly or indirectly the associated liabilities (the “Identified Assets”);
provided, however, that to the extent the Company is prohibited
by Law from contributing one or more of the Identified Assets to GGO or the
contribution thereof would breach or give rise to a default under any Contract,
agreement or instrument that would, in the good faith judgment of the Company
in consultation with the GGO Representative, impair in any material respect the
value of the relevant Identified Asset or give rise to additional liability
(other than liability that would not, in the aggregate, be material) on the
part of GGO or the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company, the Company shall (i) to
the extent not prohibited by Law or would give rise to such a default, take
such action or cause to be taken such other actions in order to place GGO,
insofar as reasonably possible, in the same economic position as if such
Identified Asset had been transferred as contemplated hereby and so that,
insofar as reasonably possible, substantially all the benefits and burdens
(including all obligations thereunder but excluding any obligations that arise
out of the transfer of the Identified Asset to the extent included in Permitted
Claims) relating to such Identified Asset, including possession, use, risk of
loss, potential for gain and control of such Identified Asset, are to inure
from and after the Closing to GGO (provided, that as soon as a consent
for the contribution of an Identified Asset is obtained or the contractual
impediment is removed or no longer applies, the applicable Identified Asset
shall be promptly contributed to GGO), or (ii) to the extent the actions
contemplated by clause (i) are not possible without resulting in a
material and adverse effect on the Company and its Subsidiaries (as

reasonably determined by the
Company in consultation with the GGO Representative), contribute other assets,
with the consent of Purchaser (which Purchaser shall not unreasonably withhold,
condition or delay), having an economically equivalent value and related
financial impact on the Company (in each case, as reasonably agreed by
Purchaser and the Company in consultation with the GGO Representative) to the
Identified Asset not so contributed.


 


(b)           Subject to Section 5.13(b),
the GGO Common Share Amount of shares of GGO Common Stock, representing all of
the outstanding capital stock of GGO (other than shares of GGO Common Stock to
be issued (x) in the GGO Rights Offering, (y) in connection with the
Backstop Consideration and the backstop consideration issuable to the
Fairholme/Pershing Investors pursuant to the Fairholme/Pershing Agreements and (z) upon
exercise of the GGO Warrants and the warrants issued to the Fairholme/Pershing
Investors pursuant to the Fairholme/Pershing Agreements, shall be distributed,
on or prior to the Effective Date, to the shareholders of the Company
(pre-issuance of the Shares) on a pro rata basis and certain holders of common
UPREIT Units (the “GGO Share Distribution”).


 


(c)           It is agreed that neither
the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to pay or cause
payment of any fees or make any financial accommodations to obtain any
third-party consent, approval, waiver or other permission for the contribution
contemplated by Section 2.1(a), or to seek any such consent,
approval, waiver or other permission that is inapplicable to the Company or any
of its Debtor Subsidiaries pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code.


 


(d)           The parties currently
contemplate that the GGO Share Distribution will be structured as a “tax free
spin-off” under the Code. To the extent that the Company and Purchaser jointly
determine that it is desirable for the GGO Share Distribution to be structured
as a taxable dividend, the parties will work together to structure the transaction
to allow for such outcome.


 


(e)           With respect to the Columbia
Master Planned Community (the “CMPC”), it is the intention of the
parties that office assets currently producing any material amount of income at
the CMPC (including any associated right of access to parking spaces) will be
retained by the Company and the remaining non-income producing assets at the
CMPC will be transferred to GGO (including all rights to develop and/or
redevelop (as appropriate) the  remainder of the CMPC). On or prior to the Effective
Date, the Company and GGO shall enter into a mutually satisfactory development
and cooperation agreement with respect to the CMPC, which agreement shall
provide, among other things, that GGO shall grant mutually satisfactory
easements, to the extent not already granted, such that the office buildings
retained by GGP (as provided above) continuously shall have access to parking
spaces appropriate for such office buildings.


 


SECTION 2.2         GGO Rights Offering.


 


(a)           On the terms and subject to
the conditions set forth herein, the Plan shall provide for the following:


 


(i)            That GGO shall offer 50,000,000 shares of GGO Common
Stock (the “GGO Rights Offering Shares”) pursuant to a rights offering
(the “GGO Rights Offering”) which shall be completed at the Company’s
election


 


5

















 


either (A) on or prior to the Effective Date or (B) promptly
(but in no event later than 90 days) following the Effective Date. Pursuant to
the GGO Rights Offering, each holder of shares of Common Stock entitled to
subscribe to the GGO Rights Offering (each, an “Eligible Holder”), as of
the record date approved by the Bankruptcy Court in connection with the Plan
(the “Record Date”), shall be offered a transferable subscription right
(each, a “Right”) to purchase up to its pro rata share (after giving
effect to the GGO Minimum Allocation Right and minimum allocation rights
granted to other investors in the Plan) of the GGO Rights Offering Shares at a
purchase price of $5.00 per share of GGO Common Stock (the “GGO Per Share
Purchase Price”).


 


(ii)           That Purchaser shall be entitled to receive a
minimum allocation in connection with the GGO Rights Offering of 10,000,000
shares of GGO Common Stock at the GGO Per Share Purchase Price (the “GGO Minimum
Allocation Right”).


 


(iii)          That if the subscription agent for the GGO Rights
Offering (the “Subscription Agent”) for any reason does not receive from
a given Eligible Holder both a timely and duly completed subscription form for
the GGO Rights Offering and timely payment of such Eligible Holder’s aggregate
GGO Per Share Purchase Price prior to the expiration time for the GGO Rights
Offering (the “Expiration Time”), such Eligible Holder shall be deemed
to have relinquished and waived its right to participate in the GGO Rights
Offering.


 


(iv)          The Expiration Time shall occur no later than ninety
(90) days after the Effective Date.


 


(b)           In order to
facilitate the GGO Rights Offering, pursuant to this Agreement, and subject to
the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein, the Plan will provide
that GGO will sell to Purchaser in the GGO Rights Offering, and Purchaser
hereby agrees to subscribe and pay for, a number of shares of GGO Common Stock
(not to exceed the GGO Backstop Limit (as such term is defined below)) equal to
(i) the GGO Rights Offering Shares minus (ii) the number of shares of
GGO Common Stock offered pursuant to the GGO Rights Offering and duly
subscribed for and paid for on or before the Expiration Time (the difference
between (i) and (ii) after applying the GGO Backstop Limit, the “Unsubscribed
Shares” and Purchaser’s commitment to purchase such Unsubscribed Shares
being referred to as the “Backstop Commitment”); provided, however,
that the Backstop Commitment is conditioned upon GGO having filed, and the SEC
declaring effective, a shelf registration statement on Form S-1 or S-11,
as applicable, prior to the date of completion of the GGO Rights Offering
(unless Purchaser shall consent to GGO filing such registration statement after
such date, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) covering resales by
Purchaser of the GGO Shares and shares issuable upon exercise of the GGO
Warrants, containing a plan of distribution reasonably satisfactory to
Purchaser, but subject to the provisions of Section 6.4 and the
Non-Control Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, “GGO Backstop Limit”
means the number of shares of GGO Common Stock equal to (i) the quotient
obtained by dividing (x) $125,000,000 by (y) the GGO


 


6

















 


Per
Share Purchase Price minus (ii) the number of shares of GGO Common Stock
subscribed, and paid for, on or before the Expiration Time by Purchaser
pursuant to the GGO Minimum Allocation Right. If the Fairholme Investors and/or
the Pershing Investors have any obligation to subscribe and pay for shares of
GGO Common Stock offered pursuant to the GGO Rights Offering (the “Fairholme/Pershing
Backstop Commitment”) in the Fairholme/Pershing Agreements, the Backstop
Commitment shall be applied pro rata with the Fairholme/Pershing Backstop
Commitment, such that the total number of shares of GGO Common Stock not
subscribed for in the GGO Rights Offering (the “Total Unsubscribed Shares”)
shall be allocated in proportion to their respective backstop commitments
(subject in the case of Purchaser to the GGO Backstop Limit and in the case of
the Fairholme/Pershing Investors to the applicable limits in the
Fairholme/Pershing Agreements).


 


(c)           The Subscription Agent shall be instructed to give
Purchaser as soon as reasonably practicable after the Expiration Time by
electronic facsimile transmission or by electronic mail a notice conforming to
the requirements specified herein of either (i) the calculation of the
number of Unsubscribed Shares and a summary of the portion of the Total
Unsubscribed Shares required to be purchased by each of Purchaser and, if
applicable, the Fairholme/Pershing Investors (a “Purchase Notice”), or (ii) in
the absence of any Unsubscribed Shares, the fact that there are no Unsubscribed
Shares. If at the Expiration Time the Total Unsubscribed Shares are in excess
of the Backstop Commitment and the Fairholme/Pershing Backstop Commitment, then
Purchaser shall also have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase on the
same terms as the Backstop Commitment fifty percent (50%) of the number of
Total Unsubscribed Shares in excess of each of the Backstop Commitment and the
Fairholme/Pershing Backstop Commitment, exercisable within 30 days after
receipt of the Purchase Notice.


 


(d)           The Plan shall provide that unless this Agreement
has been previously terminated, on the Effective Date GGO shall issue to
Purchaser (or its designees in accordance with and subject to the Designation
Conditions) a number of shares of GGO Common Stock equal to the quotient
obtained by dividing (x) 6,250,000 by (y) the GGO Per Share Purchase
Price (the “Backstop Consideration”) as compensation for the risk and
efforts of the Backstop Commitment.


 


(e)           In the GGO Rights Offering, Purchaser shall purchase
at the GGO Per Share Purchase Price, and GGO shall sell, such number of
Unsubscribed Shares as are listed in the final Purchase Notice provided by the
Company pursuant to Section 2.2(c) hereof, without prejudice
to the rights of Purchaser or GGO to seek later an upward or downward
adjustment if the number of Unsubscribed Shares in such Purchase Notice is
miscalculated.


 


(f)            On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth
herein, the Plan shall provide that delivery of the Unsubscribed Shares shall
be made promptly by GGO to the account of Purchaser (or to such other accounts
as Purchaser may designate in accordance with and subject to the Designation
Conditions) against payment of the aggregate GGO Per Share Purchase Price for
the Unsubscribed Shares by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the
account specified by GGO to Purchaser at least twenty-four hours in advance.


 


7

















 


(g)           All GGO Shares
shall be delivered with any and all issue, stamp, transfer or similar taxes or
duties payable in connection with such delivery duly paid by GGO to the extent
required under the Confirmation Order or applicable Law.


 


(h)           Purchaser, in
its sole discretion, may designate that some or all of the GGO Shares be issued
in the name of, and delivered to, one or more Brookfield Consortium Members in
accordance with and subject to the Designation Conditions.

other forward-looking disclosures contained in such reports under the headings

the Laws of their respective jurisdictions of organization, with the requisite
power and authority to own, operate or manage its properties and conduct its
business as currently conducted, subject, as applicable, to the restrictions
that result from any such entity’s status as a debtor-in-possession under
Chapter 11, except to the extent the failure of such Significant Subsidiary to
be in good standing (to the extent the concept of good standing is applicable
in its jurisdiction of organization) would not reasonably be expected to have,
individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. The Company and
each of its Significant Subsidiaries has been duly qualified as a foreign corporation
or other form of entity for the transaction of business and, where applicable,
is in good standing under the Laws of each other jurisdiction in which it owns,
manages, operates or leases properties or conducts business so as to require
such qualification, except to the extent the failure to be so qualified or,
where applicable, be in good standing would not reasonably be expected to have,
individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.


 


SECTION 3.2         Corporate Power
and Authority.


 


(a)           Subject to the
authorization of the Bankruptcy Court, which shall be contained in the
Confirmation Order, and the expiration or waiver by the Bankruptcy Court of the
14-day period set forth in Bankruptcy Rule 3020(e) following entry of
the Confirmation Order, the Company has the requisite power and authority to
enter into, execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations
hereunder (except with respect to (i) the issuance of the Warrants, (ii) the
provisions of the Approval Order and (iii) Article IX hereof).
The Company has taken all necessary corporate action required for the due
authorization, execution, delivery and performance by it of this Agreement.

Company has the requisite power and authority to (i) issue the Warrants
(assuming the accuracy of the representations of Purchaser contained in Exhibit D),
(ii) perform its obligations pursuant to the provisions of the Approval
Order and (iii) Article IX hereof. No approval by any
securityholders of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company is required in
connection with the issuance of the Warrants or the issuance of the shares of
Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrants.


 


(c)           The Company has received written confirmation from
the NYSE that the shares of New Common Stock or other Equity Securities
issuable by the Company to Purchaser and each Subscribing Entity in connection
with each Subscribing Entity’s exercise of its Subscription Rights contemplated
by Section 5.9(a) hereof shall not require stockholder
approval and shall be eligible for listing on the NYSE in the hands of
Purchaser without any requirement for stockholder approval, in each case,
during the five (5) year period following the Closing Date.


 


SECTION 3.3         Execution and
Delivery; Enforceability.


 


(a)           This Agreement has been duly and validly executed
and delivered by the Company, and subject to the authorization of the
Bankruptcy Court, which shall be contained in the Confirmation Order, and the
expiration or waiver by the Bankruptcy Court of the 14-day period set forth in
Bankruptcy Rule 3020(e) following entry of the Confirmation Order,
shall constitute the valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable
against the Company in accordance with its terms, subject to general principles
of equity, including principles of commercial reasonableness, good faith and
fair dealing (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at
Law or in equity) (except with respect to (i) the issuance of the
Warrants, (ii) the provisions of the Approval Order and (iii) Article IX
hereof).


 


(b)           Subject to the entry of the Approval Order, the
provisions of this Agreement relating to (i) the issuance of the Warrants,
(ii) the provisions of the Approval Order and (iii) Article IX
hereof shall constitute the valid and binding obligations of the Company,
enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms.


 


SECTION 3.4         Authorized
Capital Stock. As of the date of this Agreement, the authorized
capital stock of the Company consists of 875,000,000 shares of Common Stock and
of 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock. The issued and outstanding capital
stock of the Company and the shares of Common Stock available for grant
pursuant to the Company’s 1993 Stock Incentive Plan, 1998 Stock Incentive Plan
and 2003 Stock Incentive Plan (collectively, the “Company Option Plans”)
or otherwise as of March 26, 2010 (the “Measurement Date”) is set
forth on Section 3.4 of the Company Disclosure Letter. From the
Measurement Date to the date of this Agreement, other than in connection with
the issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of options
outstanding as of the Measurement Date, there has been no change in the number
of outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company or the number of
outstanding Equity Securities (as defined below). Except as set forth on Section 3.4

its Significant Subsidiaries, as the case may be; or (iv) equity
equivalent interest in the ownership or earnings of the Company or its
Significant Subsidiaries or other similar right, in each case to which the
Company or a Significant Subsidiary is a party (the items in clauses (i) through
(iv) collectively, “Equity Securities”). Other than as set forth on
Section 3.4 of the Company Disclosure Letter or as contemplated by
this Agreement, or pursuant to Contracts entered into by the Company after the
date hereof and prior to the Closing that are otherwise not inconsistent with
Purchaser’s rights hereunder and with respect to the transactions contemplated
hereby, and do not confer on any other Person rights that are superior to those
received by Purchaser hereunder or pursuant to the transactions contemplated
hereby other than rights and terms that are customarily granted to holders of
any such Equity Securities so issued and not customarily granted in
transactions such as the transactions contemplated hereby, there is no
outstanding obligation of the Company or its Subsidiaries to repurchase, redeem
or otherwise acquire any Equity Security. Other than as set forth on Section 3.4
of the Company Disclosure Letter or as contemplated by this Agreement, or
pursuant to Contracts entered into by the Company in connection with the
issuance of Equity Securities after the date hereof and prior to the Closing
that are otherwise not inconsistent with Purchaser’s rights hereunder and with
respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, and do not confer on any other
Person rights that are superior to those received by Purchaser hereunder or
pursuant to the transactions contemplated hereby other than rights and terms
that are customarily granted to holders of any such Equity Securities so issued
and not customarily granted in transactions such as the transactions
contemplated hereby, there is no stockholder agreement, voting trust or other
agreement or understanding to which the Company is a party or by which the
Company is bound relating to the voting, purchase, transfer or registration of
any shares of capital stock of the Company or preemptive rights with respect
thereto. Section 3.4 of the Company Disclosure Letter sets forth a
complete and accurate list of the outstanding Equity Securities of the Company
as of the Measurement Date, including the applicable conversion rates and
exercise prices (or, in the case of options to acquire Common Stock, the
weighted average exercise price) relating to the conversion or exercise of such
Equity Securities into or for Common Stock.

the Confirmation Order, the issuance of the Shares and the New Warrants has

liens, pre-emptive rights, rights of first refusal and subscription rights,
other than rights and restrictions under this Agreement and under applicable

all material forms, reports, schedules, statements and other documents required
to be filed or furnished by it under the United States Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the “Securities Act”) or the Exchange Act since December 31,

respects with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the
Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated
thereunder applicable to such Company SEC Reports, and (ii) did not
contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material

15a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that provides reasonable assurance
regarding the reliability of the Company’s financial reporting and the

accordance with GAAP and that includes policies and procedures that (i) pertain
to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly
reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company, (ii) provide
reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts
and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with

system of “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and
15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that is reasonably designed to ensure

(e)                                  Except as and to the extent
modified, amended, restated, corrected, updated or superseded by any subsequent

the Company prepared in accordance with GAAP, except for liabilities (i) reflected
or reserved against or provided for in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet

Adverse Effect or as may be the result of the Company’s or any of its
Subsidiaries’ Chapter 11 filing or status as a debtor-in-possession under
Chapter 11. Subject to the restrictions that result from the Company’s or any
of its Subsidiaries’ status as a debtor-in-possession under Chapter 11

Proceedings. There are no legal, governmental or regulatory
investigations, actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the Knowledge of
the Company, threatened against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries which,

not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect, with
respect to each Company Benefit Plan maintained primarily for the benefit of
current or former employees, officers or directors employed, or otherwise

otherwise sponsored, maintained or controlled by the Company or any of its
Significant Subsidiaries (“Excluded Non-US Plans”): (A) (1) all

actuarial assumptions and valuations used to account for such obligations as of
the Effective Date in accordance with applicable generally accepted accounting
principles; and (C) the Foreign Plan has been registered as required and

Company Disclosure Letter sets forth a true, correct and complete list in all
material respects of each material real property asset owned or leased (as lessee),
directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, by the Company and/or any of its
Subsidiaries (other than Identified Assets) (each such property that is not a
Non-Controlling Property and has a fair market value (in the reasonable
determination of the Company) in excess of $10,000,000 is individually referred

(b)                                 Except (i) for such
breach of this Section 3.20(b) as may be caused fully or substantially
by the third party member or partner in any Joint Venture, without the
Knowledge or consent of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or (ii) as
would not individually or in the aggregate be reasonably expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect, the Company or one of its Subsidiaries owns good and
valid fee simple title or valid and enforceable leasehold interests (except
with respect to the Company’s right to reject any such ground lease as part of
a Bankruptcy plan of reorganization for the remaining Debtor entities and
subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and
similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights and remedies generally, and subject,
as to enforceability, to general principles of equity, including principles of

each of the Company Properties, in each case, free and clear of liens,
mortgages or deeds of trust, claims against title, charges that are liens or
other encumbrances on title, rights of way, restrictive covenants, declarations
or reservations of an interest in title (collectively, “Encumbrances”), except

relating to the DIP Loan and to debt obligations reflected in the Company’s
financial statements and the notes thereto (including with respect to debt
obligations which are not consolidated) or otherwise disclosed to Purchaser in Section 3.20(g)(i) of
the Company Disclosure Letter, (ii) Encumbrances that result from any statutory
or other liens for Taxes or assessments that are not yet due or delinquent or
the validity of which is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings
and for which a sufficient and appropriate reserve has been set aside for the
full payment thereof, (iii) any contracts, or other occupancy agreements
to third parties for the


 


18

















 


occupation
or use of portions of the Company Properties by such third parties in the
ordinary course of the business of the Company or its Subsidiaries, (iv) Encumbrances
imposed or promulgated by Law or any Governmental Entity, including zoning,
entitlement and other land use and environmental regulations, (v) Encumbrances
disclosed on existing title policies and current title insurance commitments or
surveys made available to Purchaser, (vi) Encumbrances on the landlord’s
fee interest at any Company Property where the Company or its Subsidiary is the
tenant under any ground lease, provided that, except as disclosed to Purchaser
in Section 3.20(b)(ii) of the Company Disclosure Letter,
neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries have received a notice
indicating the intention of the landlord under such ground lease, or of any
other Person, to (1) exercise a right to terminate such ground lease,
evict the lessee or otherwise collect the sub-rents thereunder, or (2) take
any other action that would be reasonably likely to result in a termination of
such ground lease, (vii) any cashiers’, landlords’, workers’, mechanics’,
carriers’, workmen’s, repairmen’s and materialmen’s liens and other similar
liens (1) incurred in the ordinary course of business which (A) are
being challenged in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which a
sufficient and appropriate reserve has been set aside for the full payment
thereof or (B) have been otherwise fully bonded and discharged of record
or for which a sufficient and appropriate reserve has been set aside for the
full payment thereof or (2) disclosed on Section 3.20(b)(i) of
the Company Disclosure Letter and (viii) any other easements,
rights-of-way, restrictions (including zoning restrictions), covenants,
encroachments, protrusions and other similar charges or encumbrances, and title
limitations or title defects, if any, that (I) are customary for office,
industrial, master planned communities and retail properties or (II) individually
or in the aggregate, would not be reasonably expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. Other than as set forth on Section 3.20(b)(ii) of
the Company Disclosure Letter, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries
has received a written notice of a material default, beyond any applicable
grace and cure periods, of or under any Permitted Title Exceptions, except (w) as
may have been caused fully or substantially by the third party member or
partner in any Joint Venture, without the Knowledge or consent of the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries (x) as a result of the filing of the Bankruptcy
Cases, (y) where the Permitted Title Exceptions are in and of themselves
evidence of default (such as mechanics’ liens and recorded notices of default)
or (z) as would not, individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; provided, however, that where the
Company has otherwise represented and warranted to Purchaser hereunder
(including as set forth on the Company Disclosure Letter pursuant to such
representations and warranties) with respect to the Company’s Knowledge of, the
Company’s receipt of notice of or the existence of a default in connection with
a particular category of Permitted Title Exceptions, such categories of
Permitted Title Exceptions shall not be included in the representation set
forth in this sentence (by way of illustration, but not exclusion, the representations
set forth in Section 3.20(f) with respect to defaults under
Material Leases shall be deemed to address the Company’s representations and
warranties with respect to the entire category of Permitted Title Exceptions
detailed in clause (iii) above).


 


(c)                                  To the extent available, the
Company and its Subsidiaries have made commercially reasonable efforts to make
available or will use commercially reasonable efforts to make available upon
request to Purchaser those policies of title insurance that the Company or its
Subsidiaries have obtained in the last six months.


 


(d)                                 With respect to each Company
Ground Lease Property, except as set forth on Section 3.20(d) of
the Company Disclosure Letter and except as may have been caused by, or


 


19

















 


disclosed
in the filing of the Bankruptcy Cases, as of the date hereof, to the Company’s
Knowledge, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has received notice
of material defaults (including, without limitation, payment defaults, but
limited to those circumstances where such default may grant the landlord under
such ground lease the right to terminate such ground lease, evict the lessee or
otherwise collect the sub-rents thereunder) at such Company Ground Lease Property
beyond any applicable grace and cure periods, except (x) as would not,
individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect, (y) as may be caused fully or substantially by the third
party member or partner in any Joint Venture, without the Knowledge or consent
of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and (z) with respect to any
Company Ground Lease Property which is leased by a Subsidiary of the Company
which has consummated a plan of reorganization in the Bankruptcy Cases, all
such material defaults at such Company Ground Lease Property which existed
prior to the effective date of such Person’s plan of reorganization have been
or will be cured in accordance with such plan. As used herein the term “Company
Ground Lease Property” shall mean any Company Property having a fair market
value (in the reasonable determination of the Company) in excess of $25,000,000
which is leased by a Subsidiary of the Company as tenant pursuant to a ground
lease. With respect to the defaults referenced in clause (z) above, the
Bankruptcy Court approved the Debtors’ assumption of the applicable ground
leases and the fixed cure amounts for such defaults which predated assumption;
provided however, nothing contained herein precludes any Person from raising
issues in the future with respect to defaults that may have predated such
assumption.


 


(e)                                  Except as set forth on Section 3.20(e) of
the Company Disclosure Letter, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries
is a party to any agreement relating to the property management (but not
including any leasing, development, construction or brokerage agreements) of
any of the Company Properties by a party other than Company or any wholly owned
Company Subsidiaries, except (i) management agreements that may be
terminated without cause or payment of a termination fee upon no more than 60
days notice or (ii) as would not, individually or in the aggregate,
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.


 


(f)                                    Except as set forth on Section 3.20(f) of
the Company Disclosure Letter, to the Company’s Knowledge, as of February 15,
2010, (i) each Material Lease is in full force and effect, (ii) no
tenant is in arrears in the payment of rent, additional rent or any other
material charges due under any Material Lease, and no tenant is materially in
default in the performance of any other obligations under any Material Lease, (iii) no
bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding has been commenced (and is continuing) by
or against any tenant under any Material Lease, and (iv) neither the
Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has received a written notice from a
current tenant under any Material Lease exercising a right to terminate or
otherwise cancel its Material Lease (y) as a result of or in connection
with the termination or cancellation of any other lease, sublease, license or
occupancy agreement for space at any Company Property (each, a “Company
Property Lease”), or (z) as a result of or in connection with any
other tenant that occupies, or had previously occupied, another Company
Property Lease, allowing, or having had allowed, all or any portion of the
premises leased pursuant to such other Company Property Lease to “go dark” or
otherwise be abandoned or vacated; except, (A) in the case of each of
clauses (i), (ii) (iii) and (iv) above, as would not,
individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect, (B) as a result of the filing of the Bankruptcy Cases or
in connection with any Bankruptcy Court approved process and (C) as may
have been caused fully or substantially by the third party member or partner in
any Joint Venture, without the

reflected as expenses: (a) ground rent payments to a third party and (b) an
assumed management fee equal to 3% of base minimum and percentage rent) with
respect to the trailing twelve (12) calendar month period, equal to at least
$7,500,000.00. For purposes of Section 7.1(c), (y) the

Letter sets forth a true, correct and complete list in all material respects of

a result of the filing of the Bankruptcy Cases, or as is prohibited, stayed or

21

















 


Subsidiary’s Chapter 11 filing or status as a debtor-in-possession
under Chapter 11, and (ii) with respect solely to (z) above, which
would not individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably expected to have a

(iii)                             For purposes of
Section 7.1(c)the representations and warranties made in Section 3.20(g)(i),

Agreement, including, without limitation, in Article VII, (B) amortization
payments made pursuant to any applicable Company Mortgage Loans and (C) such

not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.


 


(h)                                 To the
Knowledge of the Company, (i) except as set forth on Section 3.20(h) of
the Company Disclosure Letter, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries
has received a written notice exercising an option, “buy-sell” right or other

units at the Natick Nouvelle, (y) with respect to builder lot purchase
agreements and other similar agreements for the sale of vacant lots of land to

not previously closed.


 


(i)                                     The Company has
conducted due inquiry with respect to the representations and warranties made
in Section 3.20(d), Section 3.20(f) and Section 3.20(h).


 


SECTION 3.21                    Tax Matters. Except as
disclosed on Section 3.21(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter:


 


(a)                                  Except in cases
where the failure of any of the following to be true would not result in a
Material Adverse Effect: (i) the Company and each of its Significant
Subsidiaries have filed all Tax Returns required to be filed by applicable Law
prior to the date hereof; (ii) all such Tax Returns were true, complete
and correct in all respects and filed on a timely basis (taking into account
any applicable extensions); (iii) the Company and each of its Significant
Subsidiaries have paid all amounts of Taxes that are due, claimed or assessed
by any taxing authority to be due for the periods covered by such Tax Returns,
other than any Taxes for which adequate reserves (“Adequate Reserves”)
have been established in accordance with GAAP or a claim has been filed in the Bankruptcy
Cases; and (iv) all adjustments of federal U.S. Tax liability of the
Company and its Significant Subsidiaries resulting from completed audits or


 


22

















 


examinations
have been reported to appropriate state and local taxing authorities and all
resulting Taxes payable to state and local taxing authorities have been paid. “Taxes”
means any U.S. federal, state, local, or foreign income, gross receipts,
license, payroll, employment, excise, severance, stamp, occupation, premium,
windfall profits, environmental (including taxes under Section 59A of the
Code), customs duties, capital stock, franchise, profits, withholding, social
security (or similar), unemployment, disability, real property, personal
property, sales, use, transfer, registration, value added, alternative or
add-on minimum, estimated, or other tax of any kind whatsoever, including any
interest, penalty, or addition thereto, whether disputed or not. “Tax Return”
means any return, declaration, report, claim for refund, or information return
or statement relating to Taxes, including any schedule or attachment thereto,
and including any amendment thereof, including, where permitted or required,
combined or consolidated returns for any group of entities that include the
Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries.


 


(b)                                 The Company and each of its
REIT Subsidiaries (x) for all taxable years commencing with the taxable
year ended December 31, 2005 through December 31, 2009, has been
subject to taxation as a real estate investment trust within the meaning of Section 856
of the Code (a “REIT”) and has satisfied all requirements to qualify as
a REIT for such years; (y) has operated since January 1, 2010 to the
date hereof in a manner consistent with the requirements for qualification and
taxation as a REIT; and (z) intends to continue to operate in such a
manner as to qualify as a REIT for the current taxable year. None of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement will prevent the Company or any of
its REIT Subsidiaries from so qualifying. No Subsidiary of the Company other
than a REIT Subsidiary is a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes,
other than a corporation that qualifies as a “taxable REIT subsidiary” within
the meaning of Section 856(l) of the Code. For the purposes of this
Agreement, “REIT Subsidiary” means each of GGP Ivanhoe, Inc., GGP
Holding, Inc., GGP Holding II, Inc., Victoria Ward, Limited, GGP
-Natick Trust and GGP/Homart, Inc.


 


(c)                                  Each Company Subsidiary
other than its REIT Subsidiaries that is a partnership, joint venture, or
limited liability company and which has not elected to be a “taxable REIT
subsidiary” within the meaning of Section 856(l) of the Code has been
since its formation treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a
partnership or disregarded entity, as the case may be, and not as a corporation
or an association taxable as a corporation, except where failure to do so would
not have a Material Adverse Effect.


 


(d)                                 Except where the failure to
be true would not have a Material Adverse Effect, the Company and each of its
Significant Subsidiaries have (i) complied in all respects with all
applicable Laws, rules, and regulations relating to the payment and withholding
of Taxes (including withholding and reporting requirements under sections 1441
through 1464, 3401 through 3406, 6041 and 6049 of the Code and similar
provisions under any other Laws) and (ii) within the time and in the
manner prescribed by Law, withheld from employee wages and paid to the proper Governmental
Entities all amounts required to be withheld and paid over.


 


(e)                                  Except where the failure to
be true would not have a Material Adverse Effect, no audits or other
administrative proceedings or court proceedings are presently pending or to the
Knowledge of the Company threatened with regard to any Taxes or Tax Returns of
the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries, other than any audit or
administrative proceeding relating to Taxes for which a claim has been filed in
a Debtor’s Chapter 11 case or any other audit or


 


23

















 


administrative
or court proceeding that is not reasonably expected to result in a material Tax
liability to the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries.


 


(f)                                    The Company has made
available to Purchaser complete and accurate copies of all material Tax Returns
requested by Purchaser and filed by or on behalf of the Company or any of its
Significant Subsidiaries for all taxable years ending on or prior to the
Effective Date and for which the statute of limitations has not expired.


 


(g)                                 There are no Tax Protection
Agreements except for those the breach of which would not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any
Significant Subsidiary has any liability for Taxes of any Person under Treasury
Regulation Section 1.1502-6 (or any similar provision of any state, local
or foreign Law), or as a transferee or successor (by contract or otherwise),
other than (i) to a Subsidiary of the Company or (ii) where any such
liability would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.


 


SECTION 3.22                    Material
Contracts. Except as would not, individually or in the
aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, each Material
Contract that shall survive the Bankruptcy Cases is valid and binding on the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries, as applicable, and, to the Knowledge of the
Company, on each other Person party thereto, and is in full force and effect.
Other than as a result of the commencement of the Bankruptcy Cases, each of the
Company and its Subsidiaries has performed, in all material respects, all
obligations required to be performed by it under each Material Contract that
shall survive the Bankruptcy Cases, except, in each case, as would not,
individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. Other than those caused as a result of the filing of the
Bankruptcy Cases, neither the Company nor any of its Significant Subsidiaries
is in breach or default of any Material Contract to which it is a party and
which shall survive the Bankruptcy Cases, except, in each case, as would not
reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material
Adverse Effect. The Company has made available to Purchaser true, accurate and
complete copies of the Material Contracts as of the date of this Agreement,
except for those Material Contracts available to the public on the website
maintained by the SEC. To the Knowledge of the Company, no party to any
Material Contract that shall survive the Bankruptcy Cases has given written
notice of any action to terminate, cancel, rescind or procure a judicial
reformation of such Material Contract or any material provision thereof, which
termination, cancellation, rescission or reformation would reasonably be
expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.
For the avoidance of doubt, Material Contracts do not include intercompany
contracts.


 


SECTION 3.23                    Certain Restrictions
on Charter and Bylaws Provisions; State Takeover Laws.


 


(a)                                  The Company and
the Company Board have taken all appropriate and necessary actions to ensure
that the ownership limitations set forth in Article IV of the Company’s
certificate of incorporation shall not apply to (i) the acquisition of
beneficial ownership by Purchaser and any Brookfield Consortium Member of the
Warrants and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants,
(ii) any antidilution adjustments to those Warrants pursuant to the
Warrant Agreement and (iii) any shares of Common Stock that Purchaser or
any Brookfield Consortium Member may be deemed to own by no actions of its own
and (iv) the


 


24

















 


acquisition
of beneficial ownership of up to an additional 2.5% of the issued and
outstanding shares of Common Stock by any Purchaser or any Brookfield
Consortium Member; provided, however, that such exception to the
ownership limitations are only effective as to Purchaser or any particular
Brookfield Consortium Member only so long as (i) the Company has received
executed copies of the representation certificate contained in Exhibit D
from Purchaser or such Brookfield Consortium Member, it being understood that a
Brookfield Consortium Member shall be required to provide such representations
at such times and only at such times as such Brookfield Consortium Member
beneficially owns Common Stock or New Common Stock in excess of the relevant
ownership limit set forth in the certificate of incorporation of the Company or
any stock or other equity interest owned by such Brookfield Consortium Member
in a tenant of the Company would be treated as constructively owned by
Purchaser and (ii) the representations so provided are true, correct and
complete as of the date made and continue to be true, correct and complete.


 


(b)                                 The Company
Board has taken all action necessary to render inapplicable to Purchaser the
restrictions on “business combinations” set forth in Section 203 of the
Delaware General Corporation Law and, to the knowledge of the Company, any
similar “moratorium,” “control share,” “fair price,” “takeover” or “interested
stockholder” law applicable to transactions between Purchaser and the Company.


 


SECTION 3.24                    No Other Representations
or Warranties. Except for the representations and warranties made
by the Company in this Article III, neither the Company nor any
other Person makes any representation or warranty with respect to the Company
or its Subsidiaries or their respective business, operations, assets,
liabilities, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects, notwithstanding
the delivery or disclosure to Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or
representatives of any documentation, forecasts or other information with respect
to any one or more of the foregoing.

(b)                                 the Company shall consult in
good faith with Purchaser regarding the appropriate balance among Capital
Raising Activities with a view toward employing the alternatives that generate
the most value for the Company with the lowest cost of capital and to avoid

provided to its lenders under its existing debtor-in possession financing
agreements; provided, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary,
the Company shall not be required to share confidential information relating to
any Competing Transaction except as contemplated by Section 5.7.
Subject to the Confidentiality Agreement, the Company shall provide, and shall
cause its Subsidiaries, and shall use all reasonable efforts to cause their
respective representatives, including legal and accounting, to provide all
cooperation reasonably requested by Purchaser in connection with the assistance
contemplated to be provided by Purchaser in connection with the Capital Raising
Activities contemplated by Section 5.3.


 


SECTION 5.7                          Competing
Transactions. From the date of this Agreement until the earlier
to occur of the Closing and the termination of this Agreement, the Company
shall provide written notice to Purchaser not less than 48 hours prior to the
Company or any Subsidiary of the Company (i) entering into a definitive
agreement providing for a Competing Transaction or (ii) filing a motion
with the Bankruptcy Court seeking to obtain bid procedures or bid protections
for or in connection with a Competing Transaction.


 


SECTION 5.8                          Reservation for
Issuance. The Company shall reserve that number of shares of
Common Stock sufficient for issuance upon exercise or conversion of the
Warrants. In connection with the issuance of the New Warrants, the Plan shall
provide that the Company shall reserve for issuance that number of shares of
New Common Stock sufficient for issuance upon exercise of the New Warrants. The
Plan shall provide that GGO shall reserve for issuance that number of shares of
GGO Common Stock sufficient for issuance upon exercise of the GGO Warrants.


 


SECTION 5.9                          Subscription
Rights.


 


(a)                                  Company
Subscription Right.


 


(i)                                     Sale
of New Equity Securities. Following the Closing
Date, Purchaser shall have the right, or shall at any time and from time to
time thereafter have the right to appoint Brookfield Consortium Members in
accordance with and subject to the Designation Conditions, to exercise the
Subscription Right set forth in this Section 5.9 (Purchaser or one
or more Brookfield Consortium Members, each a “Subscribing Entity” and
collectively the “Subscribing Entities”). If the Company or any
Subsidiary of the Company at any time or from time to time following the
Closing Date makes any public

or
non-public offering of any shares of New Common Stock (or securities that are
convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, or linked to the
performance of, New Common Stock) (other than (1) pursuant to the granting
or exercise of employee stock options or other stock incentives pursuant to the
Company’s stock incentive plans and employment arrangements as in effect from
time to time or the issuance of stock pursuant to the Company’s employee stock
purchase plan as in effect from time to time, (2) pursuant to or in consideration
for the acquisition of another Person, business or assets by the Company or any
of its Subsidiaries, whether by purchase of stock, merger, consolidation,
purchase of all or substantially all of the assets of such Person or otherwise,
(3) to strategic partners or joint venturers in connection with a
commercial relationship with the Company or its Subsidiaries or to parties in
connection with such Persons providing the Company or its Subsidiaries with
loans, credit lines, cash price reductions or similar transactions, under
arm’s-length arrangements, (4) pursuant to the Equity Exchange or any
conversion or exchange of debt or other claims into equity in connection with
the Plan or (5) as set forth on Section 5.9(a) of the
Company Disclosure Letter) (the “Proposed Securities”), the Subscribing
Entities shall have the right to acquire from the Company (the “Subscription
Right”) for the same price (net of any underwriting discounts or sales
commissions or any other discounts or fees if not purchasing from or through an
underwriter, placement agent or broker) and on the same terms as such Proposed
Securities are proposed to be offered to others, up to the amount of such
Proposed Securities in the aggregate required to enable it to maintain its
proportionate New Common Stock-equivalent interest in the Company on a Fully
Diluted Basis determined in accordance with the following sentence, in each
case, subject to such limitations as may be imposed by applicable Law or stock
exchange rules. The amount of such Proposed Securities that the Subscribing
Entities shall be entitled to purchase in the aggregate in any offering
pursuant to the above shall (subject to such limitations as may be imposed by
applicable Law or stock exchange rules) be determined by multiplying
(x) the total number of such offered shares of Proposed Securities by
(y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of New
Common Stock held by Purchaser and Brookfield Consortium Members on a Fully
Diluted Basis as of the date of the Company’s notice pursuant to Section 5.9(b) in
respect of the issuance of such Proposed Securities, and the denominator of
which is the number of shares of New Common Stock then outstanding on a Fully
Diluted Basis. For the avoidance of doubt, the actual amount of securities to
be sold or offered to the Subscribing Entities pursuant to its exercise of the
Subscription Right hereunder shall be proportionally reduced if the aggregate
amount of Proposed Securities sold or offered is reduced. Any offers and sales
pursuant to this Section 5.9 in the context of a registered public
offering shall be conditioned upon reasonably acceptable representations and
warranties of each Subscribing Entity regarding its status as the type of
offeree to whom a private sale can be made concurrently with a registered
public offering in compliance with applicable securities Laws.


 


(ii)                                  Notice. In the event
the Company proposes to offer Proposed Securities, it shall give Purchaser
written notice of its intention, describing the estimated price (or range of
prices), anticipated amount of securities, timing and other terms upon which
the Company proposes to offer the same (including, in the case of a registered
public offering and to the extent possible, a copy of the prospectus included
in the registration statement


 


31

















 


filed
with respect to such offering), no later than ten Business Days after the
commencement of marketing with respect to such offering or after the Company
takes substantial steps to pursue any other offering. The Subscribing Entity
shall have three Business Days from the date of receipt of such a notice to
notify the Company in writing that it intends to exercise its Subscription
Right and as to the amount of Proposed Securities the Subscribing Entity
desires to purchase, up to the maximum amount calculated pursuant to Section 5.9(a)(i).
In connection with an underwritten public offering, such notice shall
constitute a non-binding indication of interest to purchase Proposed Securities
at such a range of prices as the Subscribing Entity may specify and, with
respect to other offerings, such notice shall constitute a binding commitment
of the Subscribing Entity to purchase the amount of Proposed Securities so
specified at the price and other terms set forth in the Company’s notice to
such Subscribing Entity. The failure of the Subscribing Entity to so respond
within such three Business Day period shall be deemed to be a waiver of the
Subscription Right under this Section 5.9 only with respect to the
offering described in the applicable notice. In connection with an underwritten
public offering or a private placement, the Subscribing Entity shall further
enter into an agreement (in form and substance customary for transactions of
this type) to purchase the Proposed Securities to be acquired contemporaneously
with the execution of any underwriting agreement or purchase agreement entered
into with the Company, the underwriters or initial purchasers of such
underwritten public offering or private placement, and the failure to enter
into such an agreement at or prior to such time shall constitute a waiver of
the Subscription Right in respect of such offering.


 


(iii)                               Purchase
Mechanism. If the Subscribing Entity exercises its Subscription
Right provided in this Section 5.9, the closing of the purchase of
the Proposed Securities with respect to which such right has been exercised
shall take place concurrently with the sale to the other investors in the
applicable offering, which period of time for the closing of the purchase of
the Proposed Securities with respect to which such right has been exercised
shall be extended for a maximum of 180 days in order to comply with applicable
Laws (including receipt of any applicable regulatory or stockholder approvals).
Each of the Company and the Subscribing Entity shall use its reasonable best
efforts to secure any regulatory or stockholder approvals or other consents,
and to comply with any Law necessary in connection with the offer, sale and
purchase of, such Proposed Securities.


 


(iv)                              Failure
of Purchase. In the event (A) the Subscribing Entity fails
to exercise its Subscription Right provided in this Section 5.9
within said three Business Day period or, (B) if so exercised, the
Subscribing Entity fails or is unable to consummate such purchase within the
180 day period specified in Section 5.9(a)(iii), without prejudice
to other remedies, the Company shall thereafter be entitled during the
Additional Sale Period to sell the Proposed Securities not elected to be
purchased pursuant to this Section 5.9 or which the Subscribing
Entity fails to, or is unable to, purchase, at a price and upon terms no more
favorable in any material respect to the purchasers of such securities than
were specified in the Company’s notice to Purchaser. In the event the Company
has not sold the Proposed Securities within the Additional Sale Period, the
Company shall not thereafter offer, issue or sell such Proposed Securities
without first offering such securities to Purchaser in the manner provided
above.


 


32

















 


(v)                                 Non-Cash
Consideration. In the case of the offering of securities for a
consideration in whole or in part other than cash, including securities
acquired in exchange therefor (other than securities by their terms so
exchangeable), the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair
value thereof as determined by the Company Board; provided, however,
that such fair value as determined by the Company Board shall not exceed the
aggregate market price of the securities being offered as of the date the
Company Board authorizes the offering of such securities.


 


(vi)                               Cooperation. The Company and Purchaser
shall cooperate in good faith to facilitate the exercise of the Subscribing
Entity’s Subscription Right hereunder, including using reasonable efforts to
secure any required approvals or consents.


 


(vii)                           General.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (A) if (1) the
Subscribing Entity exercises its Subscription Right pursuant to this Section 5.9
and is unable to complete the purchase of the Proposed Securities concurrently
with the sales to the other investors in the applicable offering as
contemplated by Section 5.9(a)(iii) due to applicable
regulatory or stockholder approvals and (2) the Company or the Company
Board determines in good faith that any delay in completion of an offering in
respect of which the Brookfield Consortium Members are entitled to Subscription
Rights would materially impair the financing objective of such offering, the
Company may proceed with such offering without the participation of Purchaser
in such offering, in which event the Company and Purchaser shall promptly
thereafter agree on a process otherwise consistent with this Section 5.9
as would allow Purchaser to purchase, at the same price (net of any
underwriting discounts or sales commissions or any other discounts or fees if
not purchasing from or through an underwriter, placement agent or broker) as in
such offering, up to the amount of shares of New Common Stock (or securities
that are convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, or linked to the
performance of, New Common Stock) as shall be necessary to enable Purchaser to
maintain its proportionate New Common Stock-equivalent interest in the Company
on a Fully Diluted Basis, (B) if the Company or the Company Board
determines in good faith that compliance with the notice provisions in Section 5.9(a)(ii) would
materially impair the financing objective of an offering in respect of which
the Brookfield Consortium Members are entitled to Subscription Rights, the
Company shall be permitted by notice to the Subscribing Entity to reduce the
notice period required under Section 5.9(a)(ii) (but not to
less than one (1) Business Day) to the minimum extent required to meet the
financing objective of such offering, and the Subscribing Entity shall have the
right to either (x) exercise its Subscription Rights during the shortened
notice periods specified in such notice or (y) require the Company to
promptly thereafter agree on a process otherwise consistent with this Section 5.9
as would allow Purchaser to purchase, at the same price (net of any
underwriting discounts or sales commissions or any other discounts or fees if
not purchasing from or through an underwriter, placement agent or broker) as in
such offering, up to the amount of shares of New Common Stock (or securities
that are convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, or linked to the
performance of, New Common Stock) as shall be necessary to enable Purchaser to
maintain its proportionate New Common Stock-equivalent interest in the Company
on a Fully Diluted Basis and (C) in the event the Company is unable to
issue shares of New Common Stock (or securities that are convertible into or
exchangeable or exercisable for, or linked to the performance


 


33

















 


of, New Common Stock) to Purchaser as a result of a failure to receive
regulatory or stockholder approval therefor, the Company shall take such action
or cause to be taken such other action in order to place the Subscribing
Entity, in so far as reasonably practicable (subject to any limitations that
may be imposed by applicable Law or stock exchange rules), in the same position
in all material respects as if the Subscribing Entity was able to effectively
exercise its Subscription Rights hereunder, including, at the option of the
Subscribing Entity, issuing to the Subscribing Entity another class of
securities of the Company having terms to be agreed by the Company and
Purchaser having a value at least equal to the value per share of New Common
Stock, in each case, as shall be necessary to enable Purchaser to maintain its
proportionate New Common Stock-equivalent interest in the Company on a Fully
Diluted Basis.


 


(viii)                        Termination. This Section 5.9
shall terminate at such time as Purchaser together with the Brookfield
Consortium Members collectively beneficially own less than 5% of the
outstanding shares of New Common Stock on a Fully Diluted Basis.


 


(b)                                 GGO
Subscription Rights. The Plan shall provide that in connection with the
consummation of the Plan, GGO shall enter into an agreement with Purchaser with
substantially similar terms to those set forth in Section 5.9(a) above
with respect to any issuance of GGO Common Stock (or securities that are
convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, or otherwise linked to,
GGO Common Stock) after the Effective Date.


 


SECTION 5.10                    Company Board
of Directors.


 


(a)                                  Company Board
of Directors.


 


(i)                                     The Plan shall provide that
as of the Effective Date, the Company Board shall have nine (9) members
and three (3) of such members shall be persons designated by Purchaser
(the “Purchaser Board Designees”), one to each class of directors of the
Company Board (if the Company has a staggered board of directors); provided,
that such designees shall be identified by name and in writing to the Company
no later than 10 Business Days prior to the voting deadline established by the
Bankruptcy Court. Subject to the rights provided under the Fairholme/Pershing
Agreements, the remaining members of the Company Board on the Effective Date
shall be chosen by the Company in consultation with Purchaser.


 


(ii)                                  Following the Closing, the
Company shall nominate as part of its slate of directors and use its reasonable
best efforts to have elected to the Company Board (including through the
solicitation of proxies for such person to the same extent as it does for any
of its other nominees to the Company Board) (subject to applicable Law and
stock exchange rules (provided that Purchaser Board Designees need not be
“independent” under the applicable rules of the applicable stock exchange
or the SEC)) (x) so long as Purchaser and the Brookfield Consortium Members
beneficially own (directly or indirectly) in the aggregate at least 20% of the
shares of New Common Stock on a Fully Diluted Basis, three (3) Purchaser
Board Designees, (y) so long as Purchaser and the Brookfield Consortium
Members beneficially own (directly or indirectly) in the aggregate at least
15%, but less than 20%, of the shares of New Common Stock on a


 


34

















 


Fully
Diluted Basis, two (2) Purchaser Board Designees, and (z) so long as
Purchaser and the Brookfield Consortium Members beneficially own (directly or
indirectly) in the aggregate at least 10%, but less than 15%, of the shares of
Common Stock on a Fully Diluted Basis, one (1) Purchaser Board Designee.
For the avoidance of doubt, at and following such time as Purchaser and the
Brookfield Consortium Members beneficially own (directly or indirectly) in the
aggregate less than 10% of the shares of Common Stock on a Fully Diluted Basis,
Purchaser and the Brookfield Consortium Members shall no longer have the right
to designate directors for election to the Company Board. Following the
Closing, and subject to applicable Law and stock exchange rules, there shall be
proportional representation by Purchaser Board Designees on any committee of
the Company Board, except for special committees established for potential
conflict of interest situations involving any Brookfield Consortium Member or
any Affiliate thereof, and except that only Purchaser Board Designees who
qualify under the applicable rules of the applicable stock exchange or the
SEC may serve on committees where such qualification is required. If at any
time the number of Purchaser Board Designees serving on the Company Board
exceeds the number of Purchaser Board Designees that Purchaser is then
otherwise entitled to designate as a result of a decrease in the percentage of
shares of New Common Stock beneficially owned by Purchaser and the Brookfield
Consortium Members, Purchaser shall, to the extent it is within Purchaser’s
control, use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause any such additional
Purchaser Board Designees to offer to resign such that the number of Purchaser
Board Designees serving on the Company Board after giving effect to such
resignation does not exceed the number of Purchaser Board Designees that
Purchaser is entitled to designate for election to the Company Board.


 


(iii)                               Except with
respect to the resignation of a Purchaser Board Designee pursuant to Section 5.10(a)(ii),
Purchaser shall have the power to designate a Purchaser Board Designee’s
replacement upon the death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or
removal from office of such Purchaser Board Designee. The Company Board shall
promptly take all action reasonably required to fill any vacancy resulting
therefrom with such replacement Purchaser Board Designee (including nominating
such person, subject to applicable Law, as the Company’s nominee to serve on
the Company Board and causing the Company to use all reasonable efforts to have
such person elected as a director of the Company and solicit proxies for such
person to the same extent as it does for any of the Company’s other nominees to
the Company Board).


 


(iv)                              The Purchaser
Board Designees shall be entitled to the same compensation and same
indemnification in connection with his or her role as a director as the members
of the Company Board, and each Purchaser Board Designee shall be entitled to
reimbursement for documented, reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in
attending meetings of the Company Board or any committees thereof, to the same
extent as other members of the Company Board. The Company shall notify each
Purchaser Board Designee of all regular and special meetings of the Company
Board and shall notify each Purchaser Board Designee of all regular and special
meetings of any committee of the Company Board of which such Purchaser Board
Designee is a member. The Company shall provide each Purchaser Board Designee
with copies of all notices, minutes, consents and other materials provided to
all other members of the Company Board concurrently as


 


35

















 


such
materials are provided to the other members (except, for the avoidance of
doubt, as are provided to members of committees of which such Purchaser Board
Designee is not a member).


 


(v)                                 Purchaser Board
Designees candidates shall be subject to such reasonable eligibility criteria
as are applied in good faith by the nominating, corporate governance or similar
committee of the Company Board to other candidates for the Company Board.
Purchaser shall designate one of the Purchaser Board Designees to serve as the
initial chairman of the Company Board as of the Effective Date.


 


(b)                                 GGO Board of
Directors.


 


(i)                                     The Plan shall
provide that as of the Effective Date, the board of directors of GGO (the “GGO
Board”) shall have nine (9) members and two (2) of such members
shall be persons designated by Purchaser (the “Purchaser GGO Board Designees”),
to separate classes of directors of the GGO Board (if GGO has a staggered board
of directors); provided, that such designees shall be identified by name
and in writing to the Company no later than 10 Business Days prior to the
voting deadline established by the Bankruptcy Court. Subject to the rights
provided under the Fairholme/Pershing Agreements, the remaining members of the
GGO Board on the Effective Date shall be chosen by the Company in consultation
with Purchaser.


 


(ii)                                  The Plan shall
provide, in connection with the consummation of the Plan, for GGO to enter into
an agreement with Purchaser (the “GGO Agreement”) providing as follows:


 


(1)                                  That following
the Closing, GGO shall nominate as part of its slate of directors and use its
reasonable best efforts to have elected to the GGO Board (including through the
solicitation of proxies for such person to the same extent as it does for any
of its other nominees to the GGO Board) (subject to applicable Law and stock
exchange rules (provided that the Purchaser GGO Board Designees need not
be “independent” under the applicable rules of the applicable stock
exchange or the SEC)) (A) so long as Purchaser and the Brookfield
Consortium Members have not sold any of their GGO Shares or GGO Warrants, two
(2) Purchaser GGO Board Designees (provided, that in the event that the
chief executive officer of GGO is an employee of Purchaser or one if its
Affiliates, such individual shall be one of the Purchaser GGO Board Designees)
and (B) following the sale by Purchaser or any Brookfield Consortium
Member of any GGO Shares or GGO Warrants, so long as Purchaser and the
Brookfield Consortium Members beneficially own (directly or indirectly) in the
aggregate at least 10% of the shares of GGO Common Stock on a Fully Diluted
Basis, one (1) Purchaser GGO Board Designees. For the avoidance of doubt,
at and following such time as Purchaser and the Brookfield Consortium Members
have sold GGO Shares or GGO Warrants and at such time beneficially own
(directly or indirectly) in the aggregate less than 10% of the shares of GGO
Common Stock on a Fully


 


36

















 


Diluted Basis, Purchaser and the Brookfield Consortium Members shall no
longer have the right to designate directors for election to the GGO Board.


 


(2)                                  That following
the Closing, and subject to applicable Law and stock exchange rules, there
shall be proportional representation by Purchaser GGO Board Designees on any
committee of the GGO Board, except for special committees established for
potential conflict of interest situations involving any Brookfield Consortium
Member or any Affiliate thereof, and except that only Purchaser GGO Board
Designees who qualify under the applicable rules of the applicable stock
exchange or the SEC may serve on committees where such qualification is
required. If at any time the number of Purchaser GGO Board Designees serving on
the GGO Board exceeds the number of Purchaser GGO Board Designees that
Purchaser is then otherwise entitled to designate as a result of a decrease in
the percentage of shares of GGO Common Stock beneficially owned by Purchaser and
the Brookfield Consortium Members, Purchaser shall, to the extent it is within
Purchaser’s control, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any such
additional Purchaser GGO Board Designees to offer to resign such that the
number of Purchaser GGO Board Designees serving on the GGO Board after giving
effect to such resignation does not exceed the number of Purchaser GGO Board
Designees that Purchaser is entitled to designate for election to the GGO
Board.


 


(3)                                  That except
with respect to the resignation of a Purchaser GGO Board Designee pursuant to Section 5.10(b)(ii)(2),
(A) Purchaser shall have the power to designate a Purchaser GGO Board
Designee’s replacement upon the death, resignation, retirement,
disqualification or removal from office of such Purchaser GGO Board Designee
and (B) the GGO Board shall promptly take all action reasonably required
to fill any vacancy resulting therefrom with such replacement Purchaser GGO
Board Designee (including nominating such person, subject to applicable Law, as
GGO’s nominee to serve on the GGO Board and causing GGO to use all reasonable
efforts to have such person elected as a director of GGO and solicit proxies
for such person to the same extent as it does for any of GGO’s other nominees
to the GGO Board).


 


(4)                                  That
(A) each Purchaser GGO Board Designee shall be entitled to the same
compensation and same indemnification in connection with his or her role as a
director as the members of the GGO Board, and each Purchaser GGO Board Designee
shall be entitled to reimbursement for documented, reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses incurred in attending meetings of the GGO Board or any committees
thereof, to the same extent as other members of the GGO Board, (B) GGO
shall notify each Purchaser GGO Board Designee of all regular and special
meetings of the GGO Board and shall notify the Purchaser GGO Board Designee of
all regular and special meetings of any committee of the GGO Board of which
such Purchaser GGO Board Designee is a member, and (C) GGO


 


37

















 


shall provide each Purchaser GGO Board Designee with copies of all
notices, minutes, consents and other materials provided to all other members of
the GGO Board concurrently as such materials are provided to the other members (except,
for the avoidance of doubt, as are provided to members of committees of which
such Purchaser GGO Board Designee is not a member).


 


(5)                                  Purchaser GGO
Board Designee candidates shall be subject to such reasonable eligibility
criteria as applied in good faith by the nominating, corporate governance or
similar committee of the GGO Board to other candidates for the GGO Board.

Certain Matters.


 


(a)                                  The Company shall
(i) give prompt written notice to Purchaser of any written notice or other
written communication from any Person alleging that the consent of such Person
which is or may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement is not likely to be obtained prior to Closing, if the failure to
obtain such consent would reasonably be expected to be adverse and material to
the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole or would materially impair
the ability of the Company to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby
or perform its obligations hereunder, and (ii) facilitate adding such
individuals as designated by Purchaser to the electronic notification system
such that the designated individuals will receive electronic notice of the
entry of any Bankruptcy Court Order.

applicable Law, (i) the Company shall give prompt notice to Purchaser of
the commencement of any investigation, inquiry or review by any Governmental
Entity with respect to the Company or its Subsidiaries which would reasonably
be expected to be adverse and material to the Company and its Subsidiaries
taken as a whole or would materially impair the ability of the Company to
consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or perform its obligations
hereunder, and (ii) the Company shall give prompt notice to Purchaser, and
Purchaser shall give written prompt notice to the Company, of any event or
circumstance that would result in any representation or warranty of the Company
or Purchaser, as applicable, being untrue or any covenant or agreement of the
Company or Purchaser, as applicable, not being performed or complied with such
that, in each such case, the conditions set forth in Article VII or
Article VIII, as applicable, would not be satisfied if such event
or circumstance existed on the Closing Date.


 


(c)                                  No information received by a
party pursuant to this Section 5.11 nor any information received or
learned by a party or any of its representatives pursuant to an investigation
made under this Section 5.11 shall be deemed to (A) qualify,
modify, amend or otherwise affect any representations, warranties, conditions,
covenants or other agreements of the other party set forth in this Agreement,
(B) amend or otherwise supplement the information set forth in the Company
Disclosure Letter, (C) limit or restrict the remedies available to such
party under this Agreement, applicable Law or otherwise arising out of a breach
of this Agreement, or (iv) limit or restrict the ability of such party to

SECTION 5.12                    Further
Assurances. From and after the Closing, the Company shall (and
shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to) execute and deliver, or cause to be
executed and delivered, such further instruments or documents or take such
other action and cause entities controlled by them to take such action as may
be reasonably necessary (or as reasonably requested by Purchaser) to carry out
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.


 


SECTION 5.13                    Hughes Heirs

otherwise available for distribution on the Effective Date under the Plan in
the GGO Share Distribution shall be reduced by the number of shares of GGO
Common Stock issued or issuable to such holders of Hughes Heirs Obligations.

Agreement; Reorganized Company Organizational Documents.


 


(a)                                  Prior to the issuance of the

incorporation and bylaws of the Reorganized Company (the “Reorganized
Company Organizational Documents”) shall be in form mutually agreed to by
the Company and Purchaser, provided, that in the event that the Company and

Reorganized Company Organizational Documents shall be substantially in the same
form as the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Company as in
existence on the date of this Agreement (except that the number of authorized

Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.


 


(c)                                  In the event the Reorganized
Company adopts a rights plan analogous to the Rights Agreement on or prior to
the Closing, the Plan shall provide that (i) the Reorganized Company’s
Rights Agreement shall be inapplicable to this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby, (ii) neither Purchaser, nor any Brookfield Consortium

Agreement) whether in connection with the acquisition of Shares, New Warrants,

Purchaser and any Brookfield Consortium Member after the date hereof as otherwise

Acquisition Date (as defined in the Rights Agreement) nor a Distribution Date
(as defined in the Rights Agreement) shall be deemed to occur and (iv) the

transactions contemplated hereby including the acquisition of shares of GGO
Common Stock by Purchaser and any Brookfield Consortium Member after the date
hereof as otherwise permitted by this Agreement, or the GGO Warrants.


 


SECTION 5.15                    Stockholder
Approval. For so long as Purchaser has Subscription Rights
as contemplated by Section 5.9(a), in connection with the
expiration of the five (5) year period referenced in Section 3.2(c),
the Company shall put up for a stockholder vote at the immediately prior annual
meeting of its stockholders, and include in its proxy statement distributed to
such stockholders in connection with such annual meeting, approval of
Purchaser’s Subscription Rights for the maximum period permitted by the NYSE. The
Plan shall provide that GGO shall, for the benefit of Purchaser, to the extent

40

















 


exchange upon which
shares of GGO Common Stock are listed, for so long as Purchaser has

stockholder vote at the annual meeting of its stockholders, and include in its
proxy statement distributed to such stockholders in connection with such annual
meeting, approval of Purchaser’s subscription rights for the maximum period
permitted by the rules of such U.S. national securities exchange.


 


SECTION 5.16                    Registration Statements.


 


(a)                                  Prior to or promptly following the
Effective Date, the Company shall file with the SEC a shelf registration
statement on Form S-1 or Form S-11, as applicable, covering the
resale by Purchaser of the Shares and the shares of New Common Stock issuable
upon exercise of the New Warrants, containing a plan of distribution reasonably
satisfactory to Purchaser, and the Company shall use its reasonable best
efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective by the
SEC no later than 180 days after the Effective Date. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event that the Company files a registration statement
covering the resale of shares of New Common Stock for any Other Sponsor prior
to such date, the Company shall include the Shares and shares of New Common
Stock issuable upon exercise of the New Warrants for resale by Purchaser in
such registration statement.


 


(b)                                 The Plan shall provide that, prior to or
promptly following the Effective Date, GGO shall file with the SEC a shelf
registration statement on Form S-1 or Form S-11, as applicable,
covering the resale by Purchaser of the GGO Shares and the shares of GGO Common
Stock issuable upon exercise of the GGO Warrants, containing a plan of
distribution reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser, and GGO shall use its
reasonable best efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective
by the SEC no later than 180 days after the Effective Date. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event that GGO files a registration statement covering the
resale of shares of GGO Common Stock for any Other Sponsor prior to such date,
GGO shall include the GGO Shares and shares of GGO Common Stock issuable upon
exercise of the GGO Warrants for resale by Purchaser in such registration
statement.


 


SECTION 5.17                    Closing Date Net Debt.


 


(a)                                  The Company shall deliver to Purchaser a
schedule (the “Preliminary Closing Date Net Debt Schedule”) on or before
the first Business Day that is five calendar days following approval of the
Disclosure Statement, that: (i) sets forth the Company’s good faith
estimate for each of the three components of the Closing Date Net Debt W/O
Reinstatement Adjustment and Permitted Claims Amounts along with a reasonably
detailed explanation and calculation of each such component and
(ii) discloses the Company’s good faith estimate of the Closing Date Net
Debt W/O Reinstatement Adjustment and Permitted Claims Amounts and GGO Setup
Costs.


 


(b)                                 Purchaser shall review the Preliminary
Closing Date Net Debt Schedule during the Preliminary Closing Date Net Debt
Review Period, during which time the Company shall allow Purchaser reasonable
access to all non-privileged or work product documents or records or personnel
used in the preparation of the Preliminary Closing Date Net Debt Schedule. On
or prior to the Preliminary Closing Date Net Debt Review Deadline, Purchaser
may deliver to the Company a notice (the “Dispute Notice”) listing those
items on the Preliminary Closing Date Net Debt Schedule to which Purchaser
takes exception, which Dispute Notice shall (i) specifically


 


41

















 


identify such items, and
provide a reasonably detailed explanation of the basis upon which Purchaser has
delivered such list, (ii) set forth the amount of Closing Date Net Debt
W/O Reinstatement Adjustment and Permitted Claims Amounts that Purchaser has
calculated based on the information contained in the Preliminary Closing Date
Net Debt Schedule, and (iii) specifically identify Purchaser’s proposed
adjustment(s). If Purchaser timely provides the Company with a Dispute Notice,
then Purchaser and the Company shall, within ten (10) days following
receipt of such Dispute Notice by the Company (the “Resolution Period”),
attempt to resolve their differences with respect to the items specified in the
Dispute Notice (the “Disputed Items”). If Purchaser and the Company do
not resolve all Disputed Items by the end of the Resolution Period, then all
Disputed Items remaining in dispute shall be submitted to the Bankruptcy Court
for resolution at or concurrent with the Confirmation Hearing. The Bankruptcy
Court shall consider only those Disputed Items that Purchaser, on the one hand,
and the Company, on the other hand, were unable to resolve. All other matters
shall be deemed to have been agreed upon by Purchaser and the Company. If
Purchaser does not timely deliver a Dispute Notice, then Purchaser shall be
deemed to have accepted and agreed to the Preliminary Closing Date Net Debt
Schedule and to have waived any right to dispute the matters set forth therein.


 


(c)                                  On or prior to the Effective Date, the
Company shall deliver to Purchaser the Conclusive Net Debt Adjustment
Statement.


 


(d)                                 It is the intention of the parties that
releases from the Reserve are not intended to alter the allocation of value
between GGO and the Company. Accordingly, the Plan shall provide that if there
is a Reserve Surplus Amount as of the end of any fiscal quarter prior to the
maturity of the GGO Promissory Note, the principal amount of the GGO Promissory
Note shall be reduced (not below zero) (i) by 80% of the balance of the
Reserve Surplus Amount corresponding to any Net Debt Surplus Amount and
(ii) if after application of the Reserve Surplus Amount pursuant to clause
(i), any Reserve Surplus Amount remains, by 100% of the remaining balance of
the Reserve Surplus Amount. In the event that any party requests an equitable
adjustment to this formula, the other parties shall consider the request in
good faith.


 


(e)                                  The Plan shall provide that, if there is
an Offering Premium, the principal amount of the GGO Promissory Note shall be
reduced (but not below zero) by 80% of the aggregate Offering Premium on the 31st day following the Closing Date.


 


(f)                                    The Plan and the agreements relating to
the GGO Share Distribution shall provide that from and after the Closing, the
Company shall indemnify GGO and its Subsidiaries from and against 93.75% of any
and all losses, claims damages, liabilities and reasonable expenses to which
GGO and its Subsidiaries may become subject, in each case solely to the extent
directly attributable to MPC Taxes actually paid at or after the Effective Date;
provided that in no event shall the Company be required to make any
indemnification payment hereunder to the extent such payment would result in
aggregate payments under this Section 5.17(f) that would
exceed the lower of (i) $303,750,000 and (ii) the then effective
Excess Surplus Amount (the “Indemnity Cap”). The Plan shall provide that
if GGO or its Affiliates receives any refund or realizes any reduction of its
Tax liability in respect of the MPC Assets for which it has received a payment
or realized a benefit pursuant to this Agreement, GGO shall pay an amount equal
to such refund or


 


42

















 


reduction in Tax
liability (less any costs or Taxes incurred with respect to the receipt
thereof) to the Reorganized Company within ten (10) Business Days of the
receipt or realization thereof.


 


(g)                                 If GGO is obligated to pay MPC Taxes with
respect to the tax year 2010 and the Company is not then obligated to indemnify
GGO as a consequence of the Indemnity Cap, then solely with respect to such
payments, the Company shall pay such amount of MPC Taxes and the principal
amount of the GGO Promissory Note shall be increased by the amount of such
payment and if at such time no GGO Promissory Note is outstanding, on the date
of any such payment, GGO shall issue in favor of the Company a promissory note
in the aggregate principal amount of such payment on the same terms as the GGO
Promissory Note.

(c)                                  Not commence any proceeding, or prosecute
any objection to oppose or object to the Plan or to the Disclosure Statement

SECTION 6.4                          Transfer Restrictions. Purchaser covenants and agrees that the
Shares and the GGO Shares (and shares issuable upon exercise of Warrants, New
Warrants and GGO Warrants) shall be disposed of only pursuant to an effective
registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an available
exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and in compliance
with any applicable state securities Laws. Purchaser agrees to the imprinting,
so long as is required by this Section 6.4, of the following legend
on any certificate evidencing the Shares or GGO Shares (and shares issuable
upon exercise of Warrants, New Warrants and GGO Warrants):


 


THE SHARES HAVE
NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”)
OR UNDER ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS (“BLUE SKY”) OR THE SECURITIES LAWS
OF ANY OTHER RELEVANT JURISDICTION. THE SHARES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR
INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO DISTRIBUTION OR RESALE. THE SHARES
MAY NOT BE SOLD, ASSIGNED, MORTGAGED, PLEDGED, ENCUMBERED, HYPOTHECATED,
TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF UNLESS EITHER (I) A REGISTRATION
STATEMENT WITH RESPECT TO THE SHARES IS EFFECTIVE UNDER THE ACT AND APPLICABLE
BLUE SKY LAWS AND THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY OTHER RELEVANT JURISDICTION ARE
COMPLIED WITH OR (II) UNLESS WAIVED BY THE ISSUER, THE ISSUER RECEIVES AN
OPINION OF LEGAL COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER THAT NO VIOLATION OF THE
ACT OR OTHER APPLICABLE LAWS WILL BE INVOLVED IN SUCH TRANSACTION.


 


Certificates
evidencing the Shares (and shares issuable upon exercise of Warrants and New
Warrants) shall not be required to contain such legend (A) while a
registration statement covering the resale of the Shares is effective under the
Securities Act, or (B) following any sale of any such Shares pursuant to
Rule 144 of the Exchange Act (“Rule 144”), or
(C) following receipt of a legal opinion of counsel to Purchaser that the
remaining Shares held by Purchaser are eligible for resale without volume
limitations or other limitations under Rule 144. In addition, the Company
will agree to the removal of all legends with respect to shares of New Common
Stock deposited with DTC from time to time in anticipation of sale in
accordance with the volume limitations and other limitations under
Rule 144, subject to the Company’s approval of appropriate procedures,
such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.


 


44

















 


Following the time
at which such legend is no longer required (as provided above) for certain
Shares, the Company shall promptly, following the delivery by Purchaser to the
Company of a legended certificate representing such Shares, deliver or cause to
be delivered to Purchaser a certificate representing such Shares that is free
from such legend. In the event the above legend is removed from any of the
Shares, and thereafter the effectiveness of a registration statement covering
such Shares is suspended or the Company determines that a supplement or
amendment thereto is required by applicable securities Laws, then the Company
may require that the above legend be placed on any such Shares that cannot then
be sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or under Rule 144
and Purchaser shall cooperate in the replacement of such legend. Such legend
shall thereafter be removed when such Shares may again be sold pursuant to an
effective registration statement or under Rule 144.


 


The Plan shall
provide, in connection with the consummation of the Plan, for GGO to enter into
an agreement with Purchaser with respect to GGO Shares and GGO Warrants
containing the same terms as provided above in this Section 6.4 but
replacing references to (A) “the Company” with GGO, (B) “New Common
Stock” with GGO Common Stock, (C) “Shares” with “GGO Shares” and
(D) “Warrants” or “New Warrants” with GGO Warrants.

covenants provided in the Non-Control Agreement, Purchaser further covenants
and agrees not to sell, transfer or dispose of (each, a “Transfer”)
(x) any Shares, New Warrants, or shares issuable upon exercise of the New
Warrants during the period from and after the Closing Date to the six
(6) month anniversary of the Closing Date, (y) in excess of
(A) 8.25% of the Shares and (B) 8.25% of the New Warrants or shares
issuable upon exercise of the New Warrants, in the aggregate, during the period
from and after the six (6) month anniversary of the Closing Date to the
one (1) year anniversary of the Closing Date and (z) in excess of
(A) 16.5% of the Shares and (B) 16.5% of the New Warrants or the
shares issuable upon exercise of the New Warrants, in the aggregate (and taken
together with any Transfers effected under clause (y)), during the period from
and after the six (6) month anniversary of the Closing Date to the
eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date. For clarity, Purchaser
shall not be restricted from Transferring any Shares, New Warrants, or shares
issuable upon exercise of the New Warrants from and after the eighteen (18)
month anniversary of the Closing Date.


 


Purchaser shall
further covenant and agree in an agreement to be entered into with GGO in
connection with the Plan not to Transfer (x) GGO Shares, GGO Warrants, or
shares issuable upon exercise of the GGO Warrants during the period from and
after the Closing Date to the six (6) month anniversary of the Closing

anniversary of the Closing Date to the one (1) year anniversary of the
Closing Date and (z) in excess of (A) 16.5% of the GGO Shares and

under clause (y)), during the period from and after the six (6) month anniversary
of the Closing Date to the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date.
For clarity, Purchaser shall not be restricted from Transferring any GGO
Shares, GGO Warrants, or shares issuable upon exercise of the GGO Warrants from
and after the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date.


 


45

















 


Prior to the
Closing, Purchaser shall not Transfer the Warrants or the shares of Common
Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants prior to the earlier of
(i) termination of this Agreement or (ii) the date the Company or any
Subsidiary of the Company (A) makes a public announcement, enters into an
agreement or files any pleading or document with the Bankruptcy Court, in each
case, evidencing its decision to support any Competing Transaction, or the
Company or any Subsidiary of the Company enters into a definitive agreement
providing for a Competing Transaction or (B) provides notice to Purchaser
of its or any of its Subsidiaries decision to enter into, or entry into, a
definitive agreement providing for a Competing Transaction.


 


Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, Purchaser shall be permitted to Transfer any
portion or all of its Shares, GGO Shares, the Warrants, the New Warrants, the
GGO Warrants and the shares of Common Stock or New Common Stock issuable upon
exercise of the Warrants, the New Warrants and the GGO Warrants at any time
under the following circumstances (provided, that none of Purchaser’s
rights and benefits under this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of any
transferee under clause (ii) or (iii) below):


 


(i)                                     Transfers to any Affiliate of Purchaser,
any member of Purchaser, any Brookfield Consortium Member and any member,
partner or shareholder or any Affiliate of any Brookfield Consortium Member, in
accordance with and subject to the Designation Conditions.


 


(ii)                                  Transfers pursuant to a merger or tender
offer or exchange offer involving the Company in which any Person acquires more
than 50% of the outstanding Common Stock on a Fully Diluted Basis.


 


(iii)                               Any bona fide mortgage, encumbrance,

connection with any bona fide loan.


 


For the avoidance
of doubt, Purchaser’s rights to designate for nomination the Purchaser Board
Designees and Purchaser GGO Board Designees pursuant to Section 5.10
and Subscription Rights pursuant to Section 5.9 may not be
Transferred to a Person that is not a Brookfield Consortium Member.


 


Purchaser agrees
to the imprinting of a legend referencing the above transfer restrictions on
any certificate evidencing the Shares or GGO Shares (and shares issuable upon
exercise of Warrants, New Warrants and GGO Warrants). In connection with any
transfer of the Shares or GGO Shares (and shares issuable upon exercise of
Warrants, New Warrants and GGO Warrants), the Company shall remove such legends
from such certificates to the extent the transferee thereof is not bound by
such transfer restrictions.


 


SECTION 6.5                          Equity Commitments; Source of Funds.


 


(a)                                  Without the prior written consent of the
Company, prior to the Release Date (as defined in the Escrow Agreements),
except as contemplated by Section 6.5(b) below, Purchaser
shall not (i) enter into any amendments or waive any provision of or
terminate the Brookfield Equity Commitment Letter or the Escrow Agreements or
any Acceptable LC or (ii) instruct the


 


46

















 


Escrow Agent to
distribute any of the Escrow Amount to an Equity Provider pursuant to
Section4(a)(ii) of the Escrow Agreements.


 


(b)                                 In the event that at any time following
the execution of the Escrow Agreements, one or more Equity Providers secures
and delivers to Purchaser an Acceptable LC in replacement for its Commitment
Amount (as defined in the applicable Escrow Agreement), Purchaser shall be
entitled to amend or terminate the applicable Escrow Agreement replaced by an
Acceptable LC without the consent of the Company. Without the consent of the
Company, Purchaser shall not permit any amendments, waivers or terminations of
any Acceptable LC.


 


(c)                                  Prior to the earlier to occur of the
Closing and the termination of this Agreement, Purchaser shall not dividend,
distribute or otherwise transfer or dispose of any cash or other assets other
than to pay the Purchase Price and the GGO Purchase Price and pursuant to Article II.


 


SECTION 6.6                          REIT Representations and Covenants. At such times as shall be reasonably
requested by the Company, for so long as Purchaser (or, to the extent
applicable, its Affiliates, members or Affiliates of members) beneficially or
constructively owns in excess of the relevant ownership limit set forth in the
certificate of incorporation of the Company of the outstanding Common Stock or
New Common Stock, Purchaser shall (and, to the extent applicable, cause its
Affiliates, members or Affiliates of members to) use reasonable best efforts to
provide the Company with customary representations and covenants, in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit D which shall, among other things, enable the
Company to provide a waiver of the ownership limit set forth in the certificate
of incorporation of the Company to Purchaser and ensure that the Company can

INDEMNIFICATION


 


SECTION 9.1         Indemnification.


 


(a)           Subject to Section 9.1(b),
the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser, its members and
partners and their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, employees,
agents, advisors and controlling persons (each an “Indemnified Person”),
from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and
reasonable expenses to which any such Indemnified Person may become subject, in
each case, to the extent arising solely and directly out of any claim,
challenge, litigation, investigation or proceeding initiated by a third party
with respect to cooperation and assistance provided by Purchaser to the Company
pursuant to Section 5.3(a) of this Agreement (but, for the
avoidance of doubt, not other transactions relating to the Plan), and to
reimburse such Indemnified Persons for any reasonable legal or other
out-of-pocket expenses as they incur in connection with investigating,
responding to or defending any of the foregoing. Notwithstanding the foregoing
or anything to the contrary, the Company will not be responsible to indemnify
or reimburse any Indemnified Person for anything resulting from willful
misconduct or gross negligence of any Indemnified Person.


 


(b)           Promptly after
receipt by an Indemnified Person of notice of the commencement of any claim,
litigation, investigation or proceeding for which indemnification is provided
pursuant to this Agreement (“Proceedings”), Purchaser shall, if a claim
is to be made hereunder against the Company in respect thereof, notify the
Company in writing of the commencement thereof; provided that the omission so
to notify the Company shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have
hereunder except to the extent it has been materially prejudiced by such
failure. In case any such Proceedings are brought against any Indemnified
Person, the Company shall be entitled to participate therein, and, to the
extent that it may elect by written notice delivered to Purchaser, to assume
the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser,
provided that if the defendants in any such Proceedings include both such
Indemnified Person and the Company and such Indemnified Person shall have
reasonably concluded based on the advice of outside counsel that there are
legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those
available to the Company such that representation by counsel for the Company
would involve a material conflict of interest, such Indemnified Persons 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. The Company shall not be liable to any Indemnified Person
for legal expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with the
defense of any Proceeding unless (i) such Indemnified Person shall have
employed separate counsel in connection with the assertion of legal defenses in
accordance with the proviso to the preceding sentence (it being understood,
however, that the Company shall not be liable under either this (i) or the
following clause (ii) for the expenses of more than one separate counsel
representing the Indemnified Persons who are parties to such Proceedings) or (ii) the
Company shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser to
represent such Indemnified Person within a reasonable time after notice of
commencement of the Proceedings.


 


58

















 


(c)           The Company 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 Company or if there is
a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such Proceedings, the Company agrees
to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person from and against any and
all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses by reason of such
settlement or judgment in accordance with, and subject to the limitations of,
the provisions of this Article IX. The Company shall not, without
the prior written consent of an Indemnified Person (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened
Proceedings in respect of which indemnity is provided hereunder by such
Indemnified Person unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional
release of such Indemnified Person from all liability on the claims that are (1) the
subject matter of such Proceedings and (2) subject to indemnification
under this Article IX and (ii) 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.

SECTION 13.2  Assignment;
Third Party Beneficiaries. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights,
interests or obligations under this Agreement may be assigned by any party
without the prior written consent of the other party. Notwithstanding the
previous sentence, this Agreement, or Purchaser’s rights, interests or
obligations hereunder, may be assigned or transferred, in whole or in part, by
Purchaser to Brookfield Consortium Members; provided, that any such
assignee assumes the obligations of Purchaser hereunder and agrees in writing to
be bound by the terms of this Agreement in the same manner as Purchaser and the
Designation Conditions are otherwise satisfied. Notwithstanding the foregoing
or any other provisions herein, no such assignment shall relieve Purchaser of
its obligations hereunder if such assignee fails to perform such obligations.
Except as provided in Article IX 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.
Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provisions herein to the contrary,
Purchaser may not assign any of its rights, interests or


 


77
















 


obligations under this
Agreement, to the extent such assignment would affect the securities Laws
exemptions applicable to this transaction.


 


SECTION 13.3  Prior
Negotiations; Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the exhibits
hereto and the documents and instruments referred to in this Agreement)
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 the Confidentiality Agreement shall
continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms and shall
terminate no earlier than this Agreement.


 


SECTION 13.4  Governing
Law; Venue. THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. BOTH PARTIES HEREBY
IRREVOCABLY SUBMIT TO THE JURISDICTION OF, AND VENUE IN, THE UNITED STATES
BANKRUPTCY COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK AND BOTH PARTIES WAIVE
ANY OBJECTION BASED ON FORUM NON CONVENIENS.


 


SECTION 13.5  Company
Disclosure Letter. The Company Disclosure Letter shall be arranged to
correspond to the Articles and Sections of this Agreement, and the disclosure
in any portion of the Company Disclosure Letter shall qualify the corresponding
provision in Article III and any other provision of Article III
to which it is reasonably apparent on the face of the disclosure that such
disclosure relates. No disclosure in the Company Disclosure Letter relating to
any possible non-compliance, breach or violation of any Contract or Law shall
be construed as an admission that any such non-compliance, breach or violation
exists or has actually occurred. In the Company Disclosure Letter, (a) all
capitalized terms used but not defined therein shall have the meanings assigned
to them in this Agreement and (b) the Section numbers correspond to
the Section numbers in this Agreement.


 


SECTION 13.6  Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which
shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall 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.


 


SECTION 13.7  Expenses.
Each party shall bear its own expenses incurred or to be incurred in connection
with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and each other agreement,
document and instrument contemplated by this Agreement and the consummation of
the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.


 


SECTION 13.8  Waivers
and Amendments. This Agreement 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 parties or, in the
case of a waiver, by the party waiving compliance, and subject, to the extent
required, to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court. No delay on the part of any
party in exercising any right, power or privilege pursuant to this Agreement
shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any waiver on the part of any
party of any right, power or privilege pursuant to this Agreement, nor shall any


 


78

















 


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 13.9  Construction.


 


(a)                                  The headings in this Agreement are for
reference purposes only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or
interpretation of this Agreement.


 


(b)                                 Unless the context otherwise requires, as
used in this Agreement: (i) an accounting term not otherwise defined in
this Agreement has the meaning ascribed to it in accordance with GAAP;

“including, without limitation” and its variants; (iv) words defined in
the singular have the parallel meaning in the plural and vice versa;

hereof; provided, however, that a Person will be deemed to beneficially own
(and have beneficial ownership of) all securities that such Person has the
right to acquire, whether such right is exercisable immediately or with the
passage of time or the satisfaction of conditions. The terms “beneficial
ownership” and “beneficial owner” have correlative meanings.


 


(c)                                  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary,
and for all purposes of this Agreement, any public announcement or filing of
factual information relating to the business, financial condition or results of
the Company or its Subsidiaries, or a factually accurate (in all material
respects) public statement or filing that describes the Company’s receipt of an
offer or proposal for a Competing Transaction and the operation of this
Agreement with respect thereto, or any entry into a confidentiality agreement,
shall not be deemed to evidence the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s support, or
intention to support, any Competing Transaction.


 


(d)                                 In the event of a conflict between the
terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan Summary Term Sheet, the
terms and conditions of this Agreement shall govern.


 


SECTION 13.10  Adjustment
of Share Numbers and Prices. The number of Shares to be purchased by
Purchaser at the Closing pursuant to Article I, the Per Share
Purchase Price, the GGO Per Share Purchase Price, the number of GGO Shares to
be purchased by Purchaser pursuant to Article II and any other
number or amount contained in this Agreement which is based upon the number or
price of shares of GGP or GGO shall be proportionately adjusted for any
subdivision or combination (by stock split, reverse stock split, dividend,
reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) of the Common Stock, New Common
Stock or GGO Common Stock that occurs during the period between the date of
this Agreement and the Closing. In addition, if at any time prior to the
Closing, the Company or GGO shall declare or make a dividend or other
distribution whether in cash or property (other than a dividend or distribution
payable in common stock of the Company or GGO, as applicable, the GGO Share
Distribution or


 


79

















 


a distribution of rights
contemplated hereby), the Per Share Purchase Price or the GGO Per Share
Purchase Price, as applicable, shall be proportionally adjusted thereafter by
the Fair Market Value (as defined in the Warrant) per share of the dividend or
distribution.


 


SECTION 13.11  Certain
Remedies.


 


(a)                                  The parties agree that irreparable damage
would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not
performed in accordance with their specific terms. It is accordingly agreed
that, subject to clause (c) below, the parties shall be entitled to
specific performance of the terms of this Agreement. This right shall include
the right of the Company to (i) fully enforce, or require Purchaser to
fully enforce, the terms of the Brookfield Equity Commitment Letter against the
Equity Provider party thereto to the fullest extent possible pursuant to the
Brookfield Equity Commitment Letter and applicable Law and (ii) require
Purchaser to deliver a Closing Funding Certification (as defined in the Escrow
Agreements) in accordance with, and subject to, the applicable provisions of
the Escrow Agreement, including Section 4(d) thereof (or the
corollary provisions of any Acceptable LC) and upon concurrent funding pursuant
to the Brookfield Equity Commitment Letter (the financing referred to in
clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 13.11(a) being
referred to herein as the “Equity Financing”) and to cause Purchaser to
pay the Purchase Price and the GGO Purchase Price and consummate the
Transactions on the terms and subject to the provisions set forth in this
Agreement. It is explicitly agreed that the Company shall be entitled to seek
specific performance of Purchaser’s obligation to cause the Equity Financing to
be funded to fund the Purchase Price and the GGO Purchase Price only in the
event that (x) all conditions in Article VII have been
satisfied (other than those conditions that are to be satisfied (and capable of
being satisfied) by action taken at the Closing if Purchaser had complied with
its obligations under this Agreement and the Financing Commitments had been
complied with) at the time when the Closing would have occurred but for the
failure of the Purchase Price and the GGO Purchase Price to be funded, and
(y) the Company has irrevocably confirmed that if specific performance is
granted and the Purchase Price and the GGO Purchase Price are funded, then the
Closing will occur. Each of the parties hereto hereby waives (i) any
defenses in any action for specific performance, including the defense that a
remedy at law would be adequate and (ii) any requirement under any Law to
post a bond or other security as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief.
Further, the parties agree that the Company’s right to demand specific
performance of the purchase obligations contained herein shall be limited to
complete performance, and not subject to partial performance or the sale of
less than all of the Shares to be purchased by Purchaser hereunder and shall be
further conditioned upon the concurrent funding pursuant to, and in accordance
with, the Brookfield Equity Commitment Letter.


 


(b)                                 THE COMPANY HEREBY
AGREES THAT, PRIOR TO THE CLOSING, SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE (AND AN INJUNCTION OR
INJUNCTIONS, WITHOUT NECESSITY OF PROVING DAMAGES OR POSTING A BOND OR OTHER
SECURITY, TO PREVENT BREACHES OF THIS AGREEMENT) SHALL BE ITS SOLE AND
EXCLUSIVE REMEDY WITH RESPECT TO BREACHES BY PURCHASER IN CONNECTION WITH THIS
AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THAT IT MAY NOT SEEK
OR ACCEPT ANY OTHER FORM OF RELIEF THAT MAY BE AVAILABLE FOR BREACH
UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, THE ESCROW AGREEMENTS, THE


 


80

















 


BROOKFIELD
EQUITY COMMITMENT LETTER, ANY ACCEPTABLE LC OR OTHERWISE IN CONNECTION WITH
THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (INCLUDING MONETARY
DAMAGES).


 


(c)                                  Prior to the entry of the Confirmation
Order, other than with respect to (i) the indemnification obligations of
the Company set forth in Article IX and (ii) the Company’s
obligations under Section 5.1(c), Purchaser’s right to receive the
Warrants on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement
shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy of any nature whatsoever
(whether for monetary damages, specific performance, injunctive relief, or
otherwise) of Purchaser against the Company for any harm, damage or loss of any
nature relating to or as a result of any breach of this Agreement by the Company
or the failure of the Closing to occur for any reason; provided, that,
following the entry of the Approval Order, Purchaser shall be entitled to
specific performance of the Company’s obligation to issue the Warrants as well
as the Company’s obligations under Article IX and Section 5.1(c) hereof.


 


(d)                                 Following entry of the Confirmation
Order, Purchaser shall be entitled to specific performance of terms of this
Agreement, in addition to any other applicable remedies at law.


 


(e)                                  Following the Closing, each of the
parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions (without necessity of
proving damages or posting a bond or other security) to prevent breaches of
this Agreement, and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this
Agreement, in addition to any other applicable remedies at law or equity.


 


(f)                                    The Company, on behalf of itself and its
respective heirs, successors, and assigns, hereby covenants and agrees never to
institute or cause to be instituted or continue prosecution of any suit or
other form of action or proceeding of any kind or nature whatsoever against any
member of Purchaser by reason of or in connection with the Transaction,
provided, however, that nothing shall prohibit the Company from instituting an
action for specific performance against Purchaser in connection with this
Agreement in accordance with the provisions of this Section 13.11
or from instituting an action against Escrow Agent for release of the Escrow
Amounts.


 


SECTION 13.12  Bankruptcy
Matters. For the avoidance of doubt, all obligations of the Company and its
Subsidiaries in this Agreement are subject to and conditioned upon
(a) with respect to the issuance of the Warrants and the other obligations
contained in the Approval Order, including approval of the indemnification
provisions of Article IX hereof, entry of the Approval Order, and
(b) with respect to the remainder of the provisions hereof, entry of the
Confirmation Order.

This
term sheet (the “Term Sheet”) describes the material terms of a proposed
chapter 11 joint plan of reorganization (the “Plan”) of the Plan Debtors
(as defined below) solely for the purposes of the Investment Agreements (as
defined below).  The transactions
contemplated by this term sheet are subject to conditions to be set forth in
definitive documents, including the Investment Agreements and to the approval
by the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York
(the “Bankruptcy Court”).  This
Term Sheet is not an offer or solicitation for any chapter 11 plan and is being
presented for discussion and settlement purposes only.  Acceptance of any such plan by any party
(including those named herein) will not be solicited from any person or entity
until such person or entity has received the disclosures required under or
otherwise in compliance with applicable law. 
Accordingly, this Term Sheet does not bind any creditor or other party
to vote in favor of or support any chapter 11 plan.  In the event of any inconsistency between the
terms of the Plan and this Term Sheet, or the terms of any applicable
Investment Agreement and this Term Sheet, the terms of the Plan and the
Investment Agreements, respectively, shall control for their respective
purposes.

Practice and Procedure of the United States Bankruptcy
Court for the Southern District of New York.


 


D.                                    The Bidding
Procedures substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 1,
including reimbursement of expenses incurred by a bidder in accordance with the Bidding
Procedures, are fair, reasonable, and appropriate and are designed to maximize
the value General Growth may realize through a competitive process for the
benefit of all stakeholders.


 


E.                                      General Growth has demonstrated sound
business justifications for authorization to enter into the Investment
Agreements, to the extent provided in this Order,  with REP, Fairholme, and
Pershing, and for
approval to execute, deliver and perform the Warrant Agreements and the
Warrants (together, with the Investment Agreements the “Reorganization
Documents”).  These
business justifications include without limitation:


 


i.                  the establishment of a ‘floor’ price for
the value of the equity of General Growth for the benefit of all stakeholders
while preserving the ability to capture the benefit of increasing equity value
in the future,


 


ii.               long-term commitments of capital
providing liquidity necessary to emerge from Chapter 11 in a manner intended to
permit satisfaction of all unsecured creditors in full and provide a substantial
recovery for shareholders,


 


iii.            the preservation of flexibility to cancel
some or all of the commitments under the Investment Agreements and to maximize
equity value by replacing part of the committed capital with financing from
more favorable sources, and


 


3

















 


iv.           the lengthy nature of the commitments to
purchase $6.55 billion of publicly-listed stock at a fixed price.


 


F.                                      General Growth, assisted by qualified
professional advisors, has conducted a competitive process to identify
alternative sources of equity capital commitments for a plan of reorganization,
as well as explored strategic opportunities, which process will continue as
described in the Bidding Procedures. 
General Growth has made a reasonable determination that it is in the
best interests of General Growth to enter into the Warrant Agreements with the
Commitment Parties and grant indemnity as provided in Article IX of the
REP Investment Agreement at this time.


 


G.                                     The Warrants and the Warrant Agreement
relating to each Commitment Party were proposed and negotiated in good faith
and at arm’s length.


 


H.                                    The execution, delivery and performance
of the Warrant Agreements and the issuance of the Warrants relating to each
Commitment Party are fair and reasonable and in the best interests of General
Growth, and do not conflict with any federal or state law.


 


I.                                         The Warrant Agreement and the Warrants
issued to each Commitment Party are bargained-for and integral parts of the
agreement between General Growth and such Commitment Party reflected in the
Reorganization Documents.  If the
Warrants are not approved by the Court and issued as provided in the Warrant
Agreements, each Commitment Party will have the right to terminate its
obligations under the applicable Investment Agreement.


 


J.                                        The Warrant Agreement and the Warrants
issued to each Commitment Party are supported by at least reasonably equivalent
value and fair consideration given by the execution and delivery of the
applicable Investment Agreement and the commitments provided thereunder.  The Warrants, once issued, will be deemed
issued and sold for value fully paid on 


 


4

















 


the date of issuance and will constitute legal, valid,
binding and authorized obligations of General Growth enforceable in accordance
with their terms.


 


K.                                    Entry of this Order is in the best
interests of General Growth and its estates, creditors, and interest holders
and all other parties in interest herein.


 


L.                                      The findings and conclusions set forth
herein constitute the Court’s findings of fact and conclusions of law pursuant
to Bankruptcy Rule 7052, made applicable to this proceeding pursuant to
Bankruptcy Rule 9014.  To the extent
that any finding of fact shall later be determined to be a conclusion of law,
it shall be so deemed and vice versa.


 


ACCORDINGLY,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED THAT:


 


1.                                       The Bidding Procedures attached hereto as
Exhibit 1 are APPROVED as if fully incorporated into this Order and
General Growth is authorized to act in accordance therewith; provided, however, that
the Bidding Procedures shall be without prejudice to the rights of the
Commitment Parties under the Reorganization Documents.  The failure to specifically include a
reference to any particular provision of the Bidding Procedures in this Order
shall not diminish or impair the effectiveness of such provision.


 


2.                                       Notwithstanding any confidentiality
agreement that may be contained in any agreement, contract, or other document
to which General Growth is a party, General Growth is authorized to disclose
the contents of such agreement, contract, or document to prospective bidders to
the extent required by the Bidding Procedures and such disclosure shall not be
a breach of any such contract, agreement or document.


 


3.                                       General Growth is authorized, in its sole
discretion and subject to the exercise of its business judgment, to reimburse
expenses incurred by any bidder in accordance 


 


5

















 


with the Bidding Procedures up to $1 million per
bidder; provided, however,
that in no event shall General Growth reimburse more than an aggregate of $10
million for such expenses.


 


4.                                       General Growth is authorized to enter
into the Reorganization Documents and to issue and sell the Warrants to each
Commitment Party in accordance with the terms of the Investment Agreements and
Warrant Agreements.  General Growth is
authorized to perform its obligations under the Warrant Agreements and the
Warrants.


 


5.                                       The Warrant Agent is authorized to
perform its obligations under the Warrant Agreement in accordance with the
terms and conditions thereof.


 


6.                                       Upon issuance of the Warrants to any
Commitment Party, such Commitment Party shall be fully and irrevocably vested
with all right, title and interest in the Warrants free and clear of any
adverse claim or interest.  The Warrant
Agreements and the Warrants shall not be recharacterized for any purpose or
avoided for any reason whatsoever and shall not constitute fraudulent conveyances
under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable nonbankruptcy law.


 


7.                                       The Warrant Agreement and Warrants
issuable to each Commitment Party are authorized as a sale of property under
section 363(b) of the Bankruptcy Code. 
Each Commitment Party is purchasing the Warrants in good faith for
purposes of section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code and, accordingly, the
reversal or modification on appeal of the authorization provided herein to
issue the Warrants pursuant to the Warrant Agreement shall not affect the
validity of the issuance and sale of the Warrants to such Commitment Party or
the right, title and interest of such Commitment Party and its successors and
permitted assigns in the Warrants or any securities issued upon exercise of the
Warrants.


 


6

















 


8.                                       The provisions
of Sections 5.1(c), 5.7, 11.1, 13.11(c), 13.12, and Article IX of the REP
Investment Agreement and Sections 5.1(c), 5.7, 11.1, 13.11(c), and 13.12 of the
Pershing Investment Agreement and the Fairholme Investment Agreement are
approved and shall be binding upon General Growth.  Each of the Warrants and the Warrant
Agreements are approved.  No relief from
the automatic stay or the provisions of section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code
shall be required for REP, Fairholme, and/or Pershing to take any action, or
send any notice, with respect to the exercise of a termination right under the
terms of the Investment Agreements and/or the Warrant Agreements.


 


9.                                       All amounts payable by General Growth
under Article IX of the REP Investment Agreement shall constitute allowed
administrative expenses of General Growth under section 503(b) and section
507(a)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code.


 


10.                                 The failure specifically to include any
particular provision of the Warrant Agreements in this Order shall not diminish
or impair the effectiveness of such provision, it being the intent of the Court
that the Warrants or the Warrant Agreements and their exhibits, schedules,
appendices and ancillary documents be authorized and approved in their
entirety.


 


11.                                 General Growth is authorized to execute
and deliver all instruments and documents and take any other actions as may be
necessary or appropriate to implement and effectuate the transactions
contemplated by this Order.


 


12.                                 All objections to the Motion or the
relief requested therein that have not been withdrawn, waived, settled, or
specifically addressed in this Order, and all reservations of rights included
in such objections, are overruled in all respects on the merits.

13.                                 Notwithstanding Bankruptcy Rules 6004,
6006 or otherwise, this Order shall be effective and enforceable immediately
upon entry and its provisions shall be self-executing.


 


14.                                 All time periods set forth in this Order
shall be calculated in accordance with Bankruptcy Rule 9006.


 


15.                                 This Court shall retain jurisdiction over
any matters related to or arising from the implementation or interpretation of
this Order.  To the extent any provisions
of this Order shall be inconsistent with the Motion or any prior order or
pleading in these cases with respect to the Motion, the terms of this Order
shall control.


 


16.                                 The provisions of this Order are
non-severable and mutually dependant.

Exhibit 1


 


Bidding Procedures


 

















 


BIDDING PROCEDURES


 


The following procedures (the “Bidding Procedures”)
will govern the competitive process run by General Growth Properties, Inc.
(“GGP”), and its debtor and
non-debtor affiliates (collectively, “General Growth”
or the “Company”) to maximize the
value of its estates by soliciting proposals for:


 


(i)                                   a purchase of
all or substantially all of the Company (an “M&A
Transaction”);


 


(ii)                                a purchase of a
significant portion of the Company’s assets (an “Asset
Purchase”); or


 


(iii)                             an investment
of all or a portion of at least $1.5 billion of equity capital (a “Plan Sponsor Investment”); provided, however, that
such bids are subject to a minimum investment of $100 million.


 


Following
completion of the competitive processes, the Company will seek approval of its
restructuring pursuant to a plan of reorganization (a “Plan”).


 


Preliminary Diligence


 


The Company may afford any prospective acquirers and/or investors the
opportunity to conduct a reasonable due diligence review in the manner
determined by General Growth, in its sole discretion.


 


General Growth has
begun to provide certain parties who have either expressed an interest in
making a proposal or who General Growth believes may have an interest in making
a proposal (collectively, the “Interested Parties”)
with requests for such proposals (“RFPs”) and
confidential information memoranda (“CIMs”).  In addition, General Growth has provided
Interested Parties with access to certain information,(2) including these Bidding Procedures,
through a virtual data room (the “Data Room”)
or otherwise.  The Data Room has
been operational as of March 3, 2010.


 


Parties submitting
proposals may seek reimbursement of expenses incurred in connection with these
Bidding Procedures up to $1 million per bidder by providing a written request
for reimbursement with a summary and detailed backup for the expenses
incurred.  The Company will consider any
such request and, in its sole discretion and subject to the exercise of its
business judgment, determine whether to provide reimbursement; provided, however, that
in no event will General Growth reimburse more than $10 million in the
aggregate.


 


Each party
submitting a Term Sheet (as defined below) shall be deemed to acknowledge and
represent that it has had an opportunity to conduct due diligence on General
Growth in connection with the first
round prior to submitting its Term Sheet; and that it solely relied upon
its own independent review, investigation and/or inspection of any documents
and/or


 






(2)           Certain
information may be restricted due to anti-trust or other concerns.


 


2

















 


the
assets in making its proposal; and that it did not rely upon any written or
oral statements, representations, promises, warranties or guaranties
whatsoever, whether express, implied, by operation of law or otherwise,
regarding General Growth, or the completeness of any information provided in
connection therewith; provided, that
the foregoing shall not apply to REP, Fairholme, and/or Pershing, who have
executed Investment Agreements (respectively, the “REP
Agreement,” the “Fairholme Agreement,”
and the “Pershing Agreement”) and
Warrant Agreements with General Growth, and the representations, warranties,
and covenants set forth in such agreements.


 


First Round Bidding
Process


 


The Company will provide reasonable assistance to
prospective acquirers and/or investors in conducting their due diligence.  Prospective acquirers and investors will be expected

Each Term Sheet must contain detailed
descriptions of the M&A Transaction, Asset Purchase, Plan Sponsor
Investment and Plan (collectively, as applicable, the “Transaction”)
that are the subject of such Term Sheet. 
Subject to the applicable confidentiality agreements or provisions, the
Company and its professionals will share the Term Sheets received during the
first round with the advisors to the official committee of equity security
holders and the official committee of unsecured creditors (collectively, the “Committees”).


 


The Company will review those Term Sheets timely submitted and engage
in negotiations with those prospective acquirer and/or investors that submitted
Term Sheets complying with the preceding paragraph and as it deems appropriate
in the exercise of its business judgment, subject to consultation with the
Committees.  The Company will select, in
its business judgment and after consultation with the Committees, those
proposals qualifying for the second round on or before April 28,
2010.

a.                                     Proposal Assumptions


 


Any proposal should make the following assumptions:


 


(i)                                   All unsecured debt is provided
consideration in the form of cash, equity and/or debt (which may include
reinstatement to the extent applicable) in an amount to satisfy their claims of
principal and accrued interest (to the extent allowed by the Bankruptcy Court)
in full;


 


(ii)                                Pro forma for Plan distributions, the Company
retains enough cash at emergence to ensure that it has a minimum of
approximately $500 million in unrestricted and available liquidity;


 


(iii)                             The Company’s restructured property-level
debt remains in place based on the restructured terms and maturities
contemplated by the consummated plans of reorganization.  Any property-level debtors that are pending
restructuring are resolved based on terms that are substantially similar in all
material respects to the treatment provided in the confirmed plans.  All non-debtor property-level debt remains in
place on its current terms; and


 


(iv)                            Unless otherwise specified in your
proposal, Plan Sponsor Investments that are less than $1.5 billion may be
directed by the Company into consortia with other bidders, at the Company’s
option.


 


4

















 


b.             Proposal
Requirements


 


Based on the form
of transaction proposed, a Term Sheet should include the following:


 


	
  M&A TRANSACTION

  
	
   

  
	
  (i)

  	
  Total
  enterprise value (“TEV”) and
  available equity value (“EV”) for

Second Round Process


 


The Company will consider the first round bids and determine those bids
that will advance to the second round process. 
In evaluating
the Term Sheets, the Company will take into consideration, among other things,
the TEV and EV implied by the proposed transaction, the form, value and
certainty of recovery provided to prepetition creditors and shareholders,
transaction structure and execution risk, including conditions to close,
availability of financing, and approvals required.  Upon completion of this review, the Company
will select a limited number of parties to complete due diligence and provide
the Company with final financing commitments in advance of filing a Plan.


 


The Company will (i) provide additional due diligence information
to prospective acquirers and/or investors (including REP, Brookfield,
Fairholme, and Pershing), to the extent that they have not previously received
such information or new information becomes available, and (ii) negotiate
documentation of proposals selected for the second round.


 


Prospective
acquirers and/or investors will be expected to submit solid fully financed,
binding offers with proposed final documentation (“Final
Proposals”) on or before
June 2, 2010 at 4:00 p.m. (Eastern Time)  to the Bid
Notification Parties listed above.  The
Company and its professionals will share, subject to applicable confidentiality agreements or
provisions, the Final Proposals received during the second round with the advisors
to the Committees.


 


The Company will analyze the Final Proposals received during the second
round, and will engage in discussion with prospective acquirers and/or investors regarding their
respective Final Proposal.  These
discussions will provide prospective acquirers and/or investors, within a
reasonable time before the Company makes a final determination, an opportunity
to improve their proposals to exceed proposals the Company is considering
accepting.  On or before July 2, 2010, the Company intends to select, in its
business judgment and after consultation with the Committees, the proposed
transaction(s) it intends to consummate (the “Successful
Proposal”).


 


Plan Process


 


After selecting the Successful Proposal, the Company, in consultation
with the entity or entities which submitted the Successful Proposal, will
prepare and file the Plan and the accompanying disclosure statement with of the
United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Bankruptcy Court”).  The Company currently anticipates filing the
Plan on or around July 2, 2010. 
Based on this expected filing date, and subject to the Bankruptcy Court’s
schedule, the relevant timeline for the Plan would be:


 


·                  Hearing on the disclosure
statement on or around July 30, 2010;


 


·                  Company to commence
solicitation of the Plan on or around August 6, 2010;


 


·                  Deadline to vote and/or
object to the Plan on or around September 17, 2010;


 


6

















 


·                  Hearing to confirm the Plan on or around September 30, 2010.


 


7

















 


Reservation Of Rights


 


The Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion and subject
to the exercise of its business judgment, to alter or terminate these capital
raising processes or these Bidding Procedures, to alter the assumptions set
forth herein, and/or to terminate discussions with any and all prospective
acquirers and investors at any time and without specifying the reasons
therefore.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for the
purpose of defining the terms and provisions of the Warrants and the respective
rights and obligations thereunder of the Company and the record holders of the
Warrants, the Company and the Warrant Agent each hereby agree as follows:


 


1.                                      DEFINITIONS.


 


As

definition, (i) “control” means the possession, directly or indirectly, of
the power to direct the management and policies of a Person whether through the
ownership of voting securities, contract or otherwise and (ii) none of the
Initial Investors or their Affiliates shall be deemed to “control” the Company
or any of the Company’s controlled Affiliates prior to such Initial Investor or
Affiliate, as


 

















 


applicable,
acquiring or becoming part of the acquiring group for purposes of clauses (i) or
(ii) or combining with the Company for purposes of clause (iii) of
the definition of Change of Control Event.


 


Announcement
Date:  the meaning set forth in Section 5.4.


 


Board:  the board of directors of the Company.

Business
Day:  any day that is not a
Saturday, Sunday, or a day on which banks in New York, New York are required or
permitted to be closed.


 


Cash
Consideration Ratio:  means, in
connection with a Mixed Consideration Merger, a fraction, (i) the
numerator of which shall be the aggregate Fair Market Value of cash and all
other property (other than Public Stock) that holders of Common Stock will
receive for each such share of Common Stock in
connection with such Mixed Consideration Merger, and (ii) the
denominator of which shall be the Fair Market Value of all of the consideration
holders of Common Stock will receive for each such share of Common Stock in
connection with such Mixed Consideration Merger; provided, that, if the
holders of Common Stock have the opportunity to elect the consideration to be
received in such Mixed Consideration Merger, the Cash Consideration Ratio shall
be determined by reference to the weighted average of the types and amounts of
consideration received in such transaction in respect of shares of Common Stock
held by holders who are not affiliated with the Company or any entity acquiring
the Company.


 


Cash
Redemption Value:  the meaning
set forth in Section 6.1.


 


Certificate
of Incorporation:  the Company’s
certificate of incorporation (or equivalent organizational document), as
amended from time to time.


 


Change
of Control Event:  an event or
series of events, by which (i) any Person or group of Persons shall have
acquired beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3(a) promulgated
by the SEC under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of fifty percent
(50%) or more (by voting power) of the outstanding shares of Voting Securities,
(ii) all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company
are sold, leased (other than leases to tenants in the ordinary course of
business), exchanged or transferred to any Person or group of Persons, (iii) the
Company is consolidated, merged, amalgamated, reorganized or otherwise enters
into a similar transaction in which it is combined with another Person (in each
case, other than pursuant to the Plan), unless shares of Common Stock held by
holders who are not affiliated with the Company or any entity acquiring the
Company remain unchanged or are exchanged for, converted into or constitute solely
(except to the extent of applicable appraisal rights or cash received in lieu
of fractional shares) the right to receive as consideration Public Stock and
the Persons who beneficially own the outstanding Voting Securities of the
Company immediately before consummation of the transaction beneficially own a
majority (by voting power) of the 


 


2

















 


outstanding
Voting Securities of the combined or surviving entity or new parent immediately
thereafter, (iv) the Company engages in a reclassification or similar
transaction pursuant to which shares of Common Stock are converted into the
right to receive anything other than Public Stock, or (v) the holders of
capital stock of the Company have approved any plan or proposal for the
liquidation or dissolution of the Company; provided that with respect to
an election by any Holder pursuant to Section 6.1, no event or series of
events shall constitute a Change of Control Event if (x) such event or
series of events is not approved by a majority of the disinterested directors
of the Company and (y) such Holder or any of its Affiliates is the
acquiror or part of the acquiring group for purposes of clause (i) or (ii) above
or is combined with the Company for purposes of clause (iii) above.  For purposes of this definition, a “group”
means a group of Persons within the meaning of Rule 13d-5 under the
Exchange Act.


 


Closing
Sale Price:  as of any
date, the last reported per share sales price of a share of Common Stock or the
applicable security on such date (or, if no last reported sale price is
reported, the average of the bid and ask prices or, if more than one in either
case, the average of the average bid and the average ask prices on such date)
as reported on the New York Stock Exchange, or if the Common Stock or such
other security is not listed on the New York Stock Exchange, as reported by the
principal U.S. national or regional securities exchange or quotation system on
which the Common Stock or such other security is then listed or quoted;
provided, however, that in the absence of such listing or quotations, the
Closing Sale Price shall be determined by an Independent Financial Expert
appointed for such purpose, using one or more valuation methods that the
Independent Financial Expert in its best professional judgment determines to be
most appropriate, assuming such Common Stock or securities are fully
distributed and are to be sold in an arm’s-length transaction and there was no
compulsion on the part of any party to such sale to buy or sell and taking into

(a)                                  Simultaneously
with the execution of this Agreement, Warrant Certificates evidencing such
number of Warrants as set forth on Schedule A entitling the holder to

thereof must (i) surrender the Warrant Certificate evidencing such Warrant
to the Warrant Agent, with the form on the reverse of or attached to the
Warrant Certificate duly executed (the date of the surrender of such Warrant
Certificate, the “Exercise Date”), and (ii) if Net Share Settlement
is not elected, deliver in full the aggregate Exercise Price then in effect for
the shares of Underlying Common Stock as to which a Warrant Certificate is
submitted for exercise, not later than the Settlement Date as more fully set
forth herein.  Full Physical Settlement
shall apply to each Warrant unless the Holder elects for Net Share Settlement
to apply upon exercise of such Warrant. 
Such election shall be made in the form on the reverse of or attached to
the Warrant Certificate for such Warrant.


 


(a)                                  If Full
Physical Settlement is applicable with respect to the exercise of a Warrant,
then, for each Warrant exercised hereunder (i) prior to 11:00 a.m.,
New York City time, on the Settlement Date for such Warrant, the Holder shall
pay the aggregate Exercise Price (determined as of such Exercise Date) for the number
of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of such Warrant at such time
by federal wire or other immediately available funds payable to the order of
the Company to the account maintained by the Warrant Agent and notified to the
Holder upon request of the Holder, and (ii) on the Settlement Date,
following receipt by the Warrant Agent of such Exercise Price, the Company
shall cause to be delivered to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock
obtainable upon exercise of each Warrant at such time (the “Full Physical
Share Amount”), together with cash in respect of any fractional shares of
Common Stock as provided in Section 3.4(f).


 


(b)                                 If Net Share
Settlement is applicable with respect to the exercise of a Warrant, then, for
each Warrant exercised hereunder, on the Settlement Date for such Warrant, the
Company shall cause to be delivered to the Holder a number of shares of Common
Stock (which in no event will be less than zero) (the “Net Share Amount”)
equal to (i) the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise
of such Warrant at such time, multiplied by (ii) the Closing Sale Price on
the relevant Exercise Date, minus the Exercise Price (determined as of such
Exercise Date), divided by (iii) such Closing Sale Price, together with
cash in respect of any fractional shares of Common Stock as provided in Section 3.4(f).


 


(c)                                  Upon surrender
of a Warrant Certificate in conformity with the foregoing provisions and
receipt by the Warrant Agent of the Exercise Price therefor or, in the event of
Net Share Settlement, upon the election by a Holder for Net Share Settlement,
the Warrant Agent shall thereupon promptly notify the Company, and the Company
shall instruct its transfer agent

to transfer to the Holder of
such Warrant Certificate appropriate evidence of ownership of any shares of
Underlying Common Stock or other securities or property to which the Holder is
entitled, registered or otherwise placed in, or payable to the order of, such
name or names as may be directed in writing by the Holder, and shall deliver
such evidence of ownership to the Person or Persons entitled to receive the
same, together with cash in respect of any fractional shares of Common Stock as
provided in Section 3.4(f), provided that if the Holder shall
direct that such securities be registered in a name other than that of the
Holder, such direction shall be tendered in conjunction with a signature
guarantee from an eligible guarantor institution participating in a signature
guarantee program approved by the Securities Transfer Association, and any
other reasonable evidence of authority that may be required by the Warrant
Agent.  Upon receipt by the Warrant Agent
of the Exercise Price therefor or, in the event of Net Share Settlement, upon
the election by a Holder for Net Share Settlement, a Holder shall be deemed to
own and have all of the rights associated with any Underlying Common Stock or
other securities or property to which such Holder is entitled pursuant to this
Agreement upon the surrender of a Warrant Certificate in accordance with this
Agreement.


 


(d)                                 The Company
acknowledges that the bank accounts maintained by the Warrant Agent in

Agent’s name and that the Warrant Agent may receive investment earnings in
connection with the investment at the Warrant Agent’s risk and for its benefit
of funds held in those accounts from time to time.  The Warrant Agent shall remit any payments
received in connection with the exercise of Warrants to the Company as soon as
practicable and in any event within three Business Days by federal wire or
other immediately available funds to an account selected by the Company and
notified to the Warrant Agent.


 


(e)                                  If fewer than
all the Warrants represented by a Warrant Certificate are surrendered, such
Warrant Certificate shall be surrendered and a new Warrant Certificate of the
same tenor and for the number of Warrants that were not surrendered shall
promptly be executed and delivered to the Warrant Agent by the Company. The
Warrant Agent shall promptly countersign the new Warrant Certificate, register
it in such name or names as may be directed in writing by the Holder and
deliver the new Warrant Certificate to the Person or Persons entitled to
receive the same.


 


(f)                                    The Company
shall not be required to issue any fraction of a share of Common Stock upon
exercise of any Warrants; provided, that, if more than one Warrant shall be
exercised hereunder at one time by the same Holder, the number of full shares
of Common Stock which shall be issuable upon exercise thereof shall be computed
on the basis of all Warrants so exercised, and shall include the aggregation of
all fractional shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such
Warrants.  If after giving effect to the
aggregation of all shares of Common Stock (and fractions thereof) issuable upon
exercise of Warrants by the same Holder at one time as set forth in the
previous sentence, any fraction of a share of Common Stock would, except for
the provisions of this Section 3.4(f), be issuable on the exercise
of any Warrant or Warrants, the Company shall pay the Holder cash in lieu of
such fractional share valued at the Closing Sale Price on the Exercise Date.


 


3.5                                 Transferability
of Warrants and Common Stock.  Except
as any Holder may otherwise agree in writing, any Warrants, all rights with
respect thereto and any shares of

Underlying Common Stock may
be sold, transferred or disposed of, in whole or in part, without any
requirement of obtaining the consent of the Company to so sell, transfer or dispose
of, provided that any such sale, transfer or disposition shall be in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, Article 7
hereof.


 


3.6                                 Compliance with
Law.  (a) To the extent the Warrants are Registrable Securities, no Warrant may be
exercised (and the Warrant Agent shall be under no obligation to process any
exercise), and no Registrable Securities may be sold, transferred,
hypothecated, pledged or otherwise disposed of (any such sale, transfer or
other disposition, a “Sale”, and the
action of making any such sale, transfer or other disposition, to “Sell”),
except in compliance with applicable Federal and state securities and other
applicable laws and this Section 3.6.


 


(b)                                 A Holder may

institutional buyer”, as defined in Regulation D and Rule 144A under the

(in the case of a Sale) for its own account and

connection with, any distribution thereof (within the meaning of the Securities
Act) that would be in violation of the securities laws of the United States or
any applicable state thereof, but subject, nevertheless, to the disposition of
its property being at all times within its control;


 


(iii)                               such Holder or
transferee agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 3.6
with respect to any exercise of the Warrants and any Sale of the Registrable Securities; and


 


(iv)                              such Holder or

of this type to evaluate the merits and risks of the exercise of its Warrants
and/or purchase of the Underlying Common Stock, as applicable.

AND REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT IS AVAILABLE AT THE OFFICES OF THE COMPANY.


 


(g)                                 the provisions
of Section 3.6 shall not apply to,
and any Holder may exercise its Warrants and Sell its Registrable Securities:

transaction that is registered under the Securities Act; and

(iii)                               in a transaction following receipt of a legal opinion of counsel to a Holder

4.                                      REGISTRATION RIGHTS AND
PROCEDURES AND LISTING.


 


4.1                                 Applicability;
Registration.(2)


 


(a)                                  Subject to the
limitations and conditions of this Section 4.1, upon the request of
any Holder, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to cause a Shelf
Registration Statement to be declared or become effective covering all
Registrable Securities no later than the effective date of a plan of
reorganization of the Company (including without limitation the Plan), and use
reasonable best efforts to keep such Shelf Registration Statement continuously
effective and in compliance with the Securities Act and usable for resale of
all Registrable Securities for the period from the date of its initial
effectiveness until such time as there are no Registrable Securities remaining
in accordance with such plan of distribution as may be reasonably requested by
Holders of Registrable Securities from time to time.  The underwriting provisions set forth in Section 4.1(e) hereof
shall apply to an underwritten public offering requested by a Holder using such
Shelf Registration Statement effected pursuant to this Section 4.1(a),
provided, that the limitations set forth in Section 4.1(e) shall
only apply with respect to such underwritten public offering and not more
generally to the Shelf Registration Statement.


 


(b)                                 Subject to the
conditions of this Section 4.1, if the Company shall receive from
any Holder or group of Holders (such
Holder or group of Holders, the “Initiating Holder(s)”), a written
request that the Company effect a registration  with respect to
Registrable Securities owned by such Initiating Holder(s) having an
estimated aggregate Fair Market Value of at least $75 million, the Company
shall:


 


(i)                                     use its
reasonable best efforts to file a
Registration Statement with the SEC in accordance with the request of the
Initiating Holder(s), including without limitation the
method of disposition specified therein and covering resales of the
Registrable Securities requested to be registered, as promptly as
reasonably practicable but no later than (x) in the case of a Registration
Statement other than an S-1 Registration 


 






(2)                                  Note to Draft:  Lower dollar thresholds in the registration
rights section to be applicable to GGO Warrants.


 


14

















 


Statement,
within 30 days of receipt of the
request or (y) in the case of an S-1 Registration Statement, within 60 days of receipt of the request;


 


(ii)                                  use reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared or become
effective as promptly as practicable, but in no event later than 60 days after the date of initial filing of a Registration Statement
pursuant to Section 4.1(b)(i); and


 


(iii)                               use reasonable best efforts to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective and
in compliance with the Securities Act and usable for resale of such Registrable
Securities for the period as requested in
writing by the Initiating Holder(s) or such longer period as may be
requested in writing by any Holder participating in such registration (which
periods shall be extended to the extent of any suspensions of sales pursuant to
Sections 4.1(c) or 4.4);


 


provided, that (x) the
number of demand registrations that the Brookfield Investors shall be entitled
to effect pursuant to this Section 4.1(b) shall be no more
than three such demand registrations in total and no more than one such demand
registration in any 12-month period, (y) the number of demand
registrations that The Fairholme Fund shall be entitled to effect pursuant to
this Section 4.1(b) shall be no more than three such demand
registrations in total and no more than one such demand registration in any
12-month period (The Fairholme Focused Income Fund will not be entitled to
exercise demand registration rights under this Section 4.1(b)), and
(z) the number of demand registrations that the Pershing Investors shall
be entitled to effect pursuant to this Section 4.1(b) shall be
no more than three such demand registrations in total and no more than one such
demand registration in any 12-month period; provided, further,
that the Company shall be permitted, with the consent of the Initiating Holder(s) not
to be unreasonably withheld, to file a post-effective amendment or prospectus
supplement to the Shelf Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 4.1(a) in
lieu of an additional registration statement pursuant to Section 4.1(b) to
the extent the Company reasonably determines that the Registrable Securities of
the Initiating Holder(s) may be sold thereunder by such Initiating Holder(s) pursuant
to their intended plan of distribution (in which case such post-effective
amendment or demand registration statement shall not be counted against the
limited number of demand registrations). 
It shall not be unreasonable if, following the recommendation of an
underwriter, the Initiating Holder(s) do not consent to the Company filing
a post-effective amendment or prospectus supplement to the Shelf Registration
Statement filed pursuant to Section 4.1(a) in lieu of an
additional registration statement requested by the Initiating Holder(s).


 


(c)                                  Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not be required to
effect a registration pursuant to this Section 4.1: (i) with
respect to securities that are not Registrable Securities; (ii) subject to
Section 4.1(h), during any Scheduled Black-Out Period; or (iii) if
the Company has notified the Holders that in the good faith judgment of the
Company, it would be materially detrimental to the Company or its security
holders for such registration to be effected at such time, in which event the
Company shall have the right to defer such registration for a period of not
more than 60 days; provided that (A) such
right to delay a registration pursuant to clause (iii) shall be exercised
by the Company only if the Company has generally exercised (or is concurrently
exercising) similar black-out rights against holders of similar securities that
have registration rights, if any, and (B) any rights to delay 


 


15

















 


registration pursuant to
clauses (ii) or (iii) shall be subject to the Suspension Limit described
in Section 4.4.


 


(d)                                 If the Company
shall determine to register any of its securities either (x) for its own
account, (y) for the account of the Holders listed in Section 4.1(b) pursuant
to the terms thereof, or (z) for the account of Other Stockholders (other
than (A) a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans, (B) a
registration relating solely to a Rule 145 transaction under the
Securities Act or (C) a registration on any registration form which does
not permit secondary sales or does not include substantially the same
information as would be required to be included in a Registration Statement),
the Company will, subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 4.1(d):


 


(i)                                     promptly give
to each of the Holders a written notice thereof (which shall include a list of
the jurisdictions in which the Company intends to attempt to qualify such
securities under the applicable blue sky or other state securities laws); and


 


(ii)                                  subject to Section 4.1(f) below
and any transfer restrictions any Holder may be a party to, include in such
registration (and any related qualification under blue sky laws or other
compliance), and in any underwriting involved therein, all the Registrable
Securities specified in a written request or requests, made by the
Holders.  Such written request may
specify all or a part of the Holders’ Registrable Securities and shall be
received by the Company within ten (10) days after written notice from the
Company is given under Section 4.1(d)(i) above.


 


(e)                                  If any Initiating
Holder(s) intends to distribute Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 4.1(b) by
means of an underwriting, it shall so advise the Company.  In the case of such an underwritten offering,
the price, underwriting discount and other financial terms for the Registrable
Securities shall be determined by the Initiating Holder(s).  If Other Stockholders or Holders, to the
extent they have any registration rights under Section 4.1(d),
request inclusion of their securities or Registrable Securities, respectively,
in the underwriting, the Initiating Holder(s) shall offer to include such
securities or Registrable Securities of such Other Stockholders or Holders,
respectively, in the underwriting and may condition such offer on their
acceptance of the further applicable provisions of this Section 4.1(e).  The Holders whose Registrable Securities are
to be included in such registration and the Company shall (together with all
Other Stockholders proposing to distribute their securities through such
underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the
managing underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the
Initiating Holder(s) subject to approval by the Company not to be
unreasonably withheld (which underwriters may also include a non-bookrunning
co-manager selected by the Company subject to approval by the Initiating
Holder(s)); provided, however, that such underwriting agreement shall not
provide for indemnification or contribution obligations on the part of any
Holder greater than the obligations of the Holders under Sections 4.7(b) and
4.8.  Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Section 4.1(e), if the managing underwriter or
underwriters advises the Holders in writing that marketing factors require a
limitation on the number of securities to be underwritten, some or all of the
securities of the Company held by the Other Stockholders shall be excluded from
such registration to the extent so required by such limitation.  If, after the exclusion of such securities
held by the Other Stockholders, further reductions are still required due to
the marketing 


 


16

















 


limitation, the number of
Registrable Securities included in the registration by each Holder (including
the Initiating Holder(s)) shall be reduced on a pro rata basis (based on the
number of securities held by such Holders), by such minimum number of
securities as is necessary to comply with such request.  No Registrable Securities or any other
securities excluded from the underwriting by reason of the underwriter’s
marketing limitation shall be included in such registration.  If any Holder or Other Stockholder who has
requested inclusion in such registration as provided above disapproves of the
terms of the underwriting, such Person may elect to withdraw therefrom by
providing written notice to the Company, the underwriter and the Initiating
Holder(s).  The securities so withdrawn
shall also be withdrawn from registration. 
If the underwriter has not limited the number of Registrable Securities
or other securities to be underwritten, the Company and executive officers and
directors of the Company (whether or not such Persons have registration rights
pursuant to Section 4.1(d) hereof) may include its or their
securities for its or their own account in such registration if the managing
underwriter or underwriters and the Company so agree and if the number of
Registrable Securities and other securities which would otherwise have been
included in such registration and underwriting will not thereby be
limited.  The Company shall not be
obligated to undertake more than (i) one
underwritten offering requested by any of the Brookfield Investors pursuant to Sections
4.1(b) and 4.1(e) in any 12-month period, (ii) one
underwritten offering requested by The Fairholme Fund pursuant to Section 4.1(b) and
4.1(e) in any 12-month period, and (iii) one underwritten
offering requested by any of the Pershing Investors pursuant to Section 4.1(b) and
4.1(e) in any 12-month period.  The Holders shall reasonably cooperate in
connection with requests for underwritten offerings pursuant to this Section 4.1(e) to
cause the total number of days that the Company shall be subject to lock-ups in
connection with any such underwritten offerings not to exceed 120 days in any
365-day period.


 


(f)                                    If the
registration of which the Company gives notice pursuant to Section 4.1(d) is
for a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall
so advise each of the Holders as a part of the written notice given pursuant to
Section 4.1(d) above. 
In such event, the right of each of the Holders to registration pursuant
to Section 4.1(d) shall be conditioned upon such Holders’
participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holders’
Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein.  The Holders whose Registrable Securities are
to be included in such registration shall (together with the Company and the
Other Stockholders distributing their securities through such underwriting)
enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing
underwriter or underwriters selected for underwriting by the Company (other
than a registration pursuant to Section 4.1(b) and notified by
the Company pursuant to Section 4.1(d)(y), in which case Section 4.1(e) shall
apply with respect to the selection of underwriters); provided, however, that
such underwriting agreement shall not provide for indemnification or
contribution obligations on the part of any Holder greater than the obligations
of the Holders under Sections 4.7(b) and 4.8.  Notwithstanding any other provision of Section 4.1(d),
if any registration in respect of which any Holder is exercising its rights
under Section 4.1(d) involves an underwritten public offering
(other than a registration pursuant to Section 4.1(b), in which
case the provisions with respect to priority of inclusion in such registration
set forth in Section 4.1(e) shall apply) and the managing
underwriter or underwriters advises the Company that in its view marketing
factors require a limitation on the number of securities to be underwritten,
then there shall be included in such underwritten offering the number or dollar
amount of securities of the Company that in the opinion of the managing
underwriter or underwriters can be sold without adversely affecting 


 


17





















 


such offering, and such
number of securities of the Company shall be allocated for inclusion as
follows: (1) first, all securities of the Company being sold by the
Company for its own account; (2) second, all Registrable Securities
requested to be included by the Holders and, solely with respect to an offering
of Warrants following the 180th day after the effectiveness of a
plan of reorganization of the Company, securities of the Company being sold by
any Person (other than a Holder) with similar piggyback registration rights,
pro rata, based on the number of securities beneficially owned by each such
Holder and Person; and (3) third, among any other holders of securities of
the Company requesting such registration, pro rata, based on the number of
securities beneficially owned by each such holder.  If any of the Holders or any officer,
director or Other Stockholder disapproves of the terms of any such
underwriting, he, she or it may elect to withdraw therefrom by providing
written notice to the Company and the underwriter.  Any Registrable Securities or other
securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from
such registration.


 


(g)                                 In the event
any Holder requests or elects to participate in a registration pursuant to this
Section 4.1 in connection with a distribution of Registrable
Securities to its partners or members, the registration shall provide for the
resale by such partners or members, if requested by such Holder.


 


(h)                                 The Company agrees to use reasonable best efforts to promptly respond to
any request by any member of the Fairholme Purchaser Group to sell Registrable
Securities under a Registration Statement or Prospectus during what would
otherwise be a Scheduled Black-Out Period, provided that such consent can be
given in compliance with applicable securities laws. In addition the Company
agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to issue earnings releases as promptly
as practicable following the end of quarterly reporting periods and to
otherwise minimize the duration of Scheduled Black-Out Periods.


 


4.2                                 Expenses of
Registration.  Except as
specifically provided herein, all Registration Expenses incurred in connection
with any registration, qualification or compliance hereunder shall be borne by
the Company. All Selling Expenses incurred in connection with any registrations
hereunder shall be borne by the holders of the securities so registered pro
rata on the basis of the aggregate offering or sale price of the securities so
registered.


 


4.3                                 Obligations of
the Company.  In connection with the registration of any Registrable Securities, the
Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably practicable and in accordance with the requested methods of distribution thereof, subject to
the provisions of this Article 4:


 


(a)                                  Prepare and
file with the SEC a prospectus supplement with respect to a proposed offering
of Registrable Securities pursuant to an effective Registration Statement and,
subject to Sections 4.1(b), 4.1(c) and 4.4,
use reasonable best efforts to keep
such Registration Statement effective or such prospectus supplement current,
until the termination of the period contemplated in Section 4.5.


 


(b)                                 Prepare and file
with the SEC such amendments and supplements to the applicable Registration
Statement and the Prospectus or prospectus supplement used in connection with
such Registration Statement as may be necessary to comply with 


 


18

















 


the
provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all
Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement for the period
set forth in paragraph (a) above.


 


(c)                                  Furnish to the
Holders and any underwriters such number of copies of the applicable
Registration Statement and each such amendment and supplement thereto
(including in each case all exhibits) and of a Prospectus, including a
preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities
Act, and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order to
facilitate the disposition of Registrable Securities owned or to be distributed
by them.


 


(d)                                 Use its
reasonable best efforts to register and
qualify the securities covered by such Registration Statement under such other
securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably
requested by the Holders or any managing underwriter(s), to keep such
registration or qualification in effect for so long as such Registration
Statement remains in effect, and to take any other action which may be
reasonably necessary to enable such seller to consummate the disposition in
such jurisdictions of the securities owned by such Holder; provided that the
Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto
to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in
any such states or jurisdictions.


 


(e)                                  Notify each
Holder of Registrable Securities at any time when a Prospectus relating thereto
is required to be delivered under the Securities Act or the happening of any
event as a result of which the applicable Prospectus, as then in effect, would
include an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein
not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing.


 


(f)                                    Give written
notice to the Holders of Registrable Securities covered by a Registration
Statement:


 


(i)                                     when any
Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 4.1 or any
amendment thereto has been filed with the SEC and when such Registration
Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective;


 


(ii)                                  of any request
by the SEC for amendments or supplements to any Registration Statement or the
Prospectus included therein or for additional information;


 


(iii)                               of the issuance
by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration
Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose;


 


(iv)                              of the receipt
by the Company or its legal counsel of any notification with respect to the
suspension of the qualification of the Registrable Securities for sale in any
jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such
purpose; and


 


19

















 


(v)                                 of the
happening of any event that requires the Company to make changes in any
effective Registration Statement or the Prospectus in order to make the
statements therein not misleading (which notice shall be accompanied by an
instruction to suspend the use of the Prospectus until the requisite changes
have been made).


 


(g)                                 Use its
reasonable best efforts to prevent the
issuance or obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of
any Registration Statement referred to in Section 4.3(f)(iii) at
the earliest practicable time.


 


(h)                                 Upon the
occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 4.3(f)(v), as soon
as is reasonably practicable prepare a post-effective amendment to such
Registration Statement or a supplement to the related Prospectus or file any
other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to the Holders and any
underwriters, the Prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material
fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements
therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading. If the Company notifies the Holders in accordance with Section 4.3(f)(v) to
suspend the use of the Prospectus until the requisite changes to the Prospectus
have been made, then the Holders and any underwriters shall suspend use of such
Prospectus and use their commercially reasonable efforts to return to the
Company all copies of such Prospectus (at the Company’s expense) other than
permanently filed copies then in such Holder’s or underwriter’s possession.


 


(i)                                     Use its
reasonable best efforts to procure the
cooperation of the Company’s transfer agent in settling any offering or sale of
Registrable Securities, including with respect to the transfer of physical
security instruments into book-entry form in accordance with any procedures
reasonably requested by the Holders or any managing underwriter(s).


 


(j)                                     Use its
reasonable best efforts to take such actions
as are under its control to become or remain a well-known seasoned issuer (as
defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) (and not become an
ineligible issuer (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act))
during the period when such Registration Statement remains in effect.


 


(k)                                  With respect to
underwritten public offerings permitted by this Agreement, enter into an
underwriting agreement in form, scope and substance as is customarily entered
into for similar underwritten secondary offerings of equity securities and take
all such other actions reasonably requested by the Holders of a majority of the
Registrable Securities being sold in connection therewith or by the managing
underwriter(s), if any, to expedite or facilitate the underwritten disposition
of such Registrable Securities, and in connection therewith as customary for
any similar underwritten secondary offering, (i) make such representations
and warranties to the Holders that are selling stockholders and the managing
underwriter(s), if any, with respect to the business of the Company and its
subsidiaries, and the Registration Statement, Prospectus and documents, if any,
incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein, in each case,
in form, substance and scope as are customarily made by the issuer in similar
secondary underwritten offerings of equity securities, and confirm 


 


20

















 


the
same if and when requested, (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to furnish underwriters opinions of counsel to the Company, addressed
to the managing underwriter(s), if any, covering the matters customarily
covered in the opinions requested in similar secondary underwritten offerings
of equity securities, (iii) use its reasonable best
efforts to obtain “cold comfort” letters from the independent certified
public accountants of the Company (and, if necessary, any other independent
certified public accountants of any business acquired by the Company for which
financial statements and financial data are included in the Registration
Statement) who have certified the financial statements included in such
Registration Statement, addressed to each of the managing underwriter(s), if
any, such letters to be in customary form and covering matters of the type
customarily covered in “cold comfort” letters in connection with similar
secondary underwritten offerings of equity securities, (iv) if an
underwriting agreement is entered into, the same shall contain indemnification
provisions and procedures customary in similar secondary underwritten offerings
of equity securities by similar companies, and (v) deliver such documents
and certificates as may be reasonably requested by the Holders of a majority of
the Registrable Securities being sold in connection therewith, their counsel
and the managing underwriter(s), if any, to evidence the continued validity of
the representations and warranties made pursuant to clause (i) above and
to evidence compliance with any customary conditions contained in the
underwriting agreement or other agreement entered into by the Company.


 


(l)                                     Make available
for inspection by a representative of Holders that are selling at least five
percent (5%) of the Registrable Securities issued on the date hereof, the
managing underwriter(s), if any, and any attorneys or accountants retained by
such Holders or managing underwriter(s), at the offices where normally kept,
during reasonable business hours, financial and other records and pertinent
corporate documents of the Company, and cause the officers, directors and
employees of the Company to supply all information in each case reasonably
requested by any such representative, managing underwriter(s), attorney or
accountant in connection with such Registration Statement; provided that this
clause (l) shall only be applicable to a representative of such Holders
that are selling stockholders and any attorneys or accountants retained by such
Holders if such Holder is named in the applicable prospectus supplement as a
Person who may be deemed to be an underwriter with respect to an offering and sale of Registrable Securities.


 


4.4                                 Suspension of
Sales.  Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained herein (but subject to the Suspension Limit described
below), (i) subject to Section 4.1(h), during any Scheduled
Black-Out Period or (ii) upon receipt of written notice from the Company
that a Registration Statement or Prospectus contains or may contain an untrue
statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or
that circumstances exist that make inadvisable use of such Registration
Statement or Prospectus, the Holder of Registrable Securities shall forthwith
discontinue the marketing of or disposition of Registrable Securities until termination
of such Scheduled Black-Out Period, until the Holder has received copies of a
supplemented or amended Prospectus, or until such Holder is advised in writing
by the Company that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed, and, if so
directed by the Company, such Holder shall deliver to the Company (at the
Company’s expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such 


 


21

















 


Holder’s possession, of the
Prospectus covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt
of such notice. The total number of days that any such suspensions and any
deferrals or delays in registration pursuant to Section 4.1(c) in
the aggregate may be in effect in any 180 day period shall not exceed 60 days
(the “Suspension Limit”).


 


4.5                                 Termination of
Registration Rights.  A Holder’s
Registration Rights as to any securities held by such Holder (and its
affiliates, partners, members and former members) shall not be available unless
such securities are Registrable Securities.


 


4.6                                 Furnishing
Information.  It shall be
a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action
pursuant to Section 4.3 that the selling Holders and the
underwriters, if any, shall furnish to the Company such information regarding
themselves, the Registrable Securities held by them and the intended method of
disposition of such securities as shall be required to effect the registered
offering of their Registrable Securities.


 


4.7                                 Indemnification.  (a)  In connection with each
registration pursuant to Article 4, the Company agrees to indemnify
and hold harmless (1) each selling Holder and each of its officers,
directors, limited or general partners and members, (2) each member,
limited or general partner of each such member, limited or general partner, (3) each
of their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, shareholders, employees,
advisors and agents, (4) each underwriter or agent participating in such
offering, and (5) each Person, if any, who controls any selling Holder or
any such underwriter or agent within the meaning of Section 15 of the
Securities Act as follows:


 


(i)                                     against any and
all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense (“Loss”) whatsoever, as
incurred, arising out of an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact contained in the Registration Statement, or the omission or
alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or arising out of an untrue
statement of a material fact included in any preliminary prospectus or the
Prospectus  or the omission or alleged
omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements
therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading; and


 


(ii)                                  against any and
all Loss whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in
settlement of any litigation, or investigation or proceeding by any
governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim
whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such
alleged untrue statement or omission; provided, however, that,
with respect to any selling Holder or any underwriter or agent, this indemnity
does not apply to any Loss to the extent arising out of an untrue statement or
omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in
conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such selling
Holder or underwriter or agent, respectively, expressly for use in the
Registration Statement, or any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus.


 


(b)                                 Each selling
Holder agrees severally, and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the
Company, its directors, each of its officers who signed a Registration
Statement, each underwriter or agent participating in such offering and the
other selling Holders, 


 


22

















 


and each Person, if any, who
controls the Company, any such underwriter or agent and any other selling
Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against any
and all Losses described in the indemnity contained in Section 4.7(a),
as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or
alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Registration Statement, or
any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity
with written information furnished to the Company by such selling Holder
expressly for use in the Registration Statement, or any preliminary prospectus
or the Prospectus.


 


(c)                                  The obligations
of the Company under Section 4.7(a) and of the selling Holders
under Section 4.7(b) to indemnify any underwriter or agent who
participates in an offering (or any Person, if any, controlling such
underwriter or agent within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities
Act) shall be conditioned upon the underwriting or agency agreement with such
underwriter or agent containing an agreement by such underwriter or agent to
indemnify and hold harmless (1) each selling Holder and each of its
officers, directors, limited or general partners and members, (2) each
member, limited or general partner of each such member, limited or general
partner, (3) each of their respective Affiliates, officers, directors,
shareholders, employees, advisors and agents, (4) the Company, its
directors, and each of its officers who signed a Registration Statement, and (5) each
Person, if any, who controls the Company or any such selling Holder within the
meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against any and all Losses
described in the indemnity contained in Section 4.7(a), as
incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged
untrue statements or omissions, made in the Registration Statement, or any
preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity
with written information furnished to the Company by such underwriter or agent
expressly for use in the Registration Statement or any preliminary prospectus
or the Prospectus.


 


(d)                                 Each
indemnified party shall give prompt notice to each indemnifying party of any
action commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought
hereunder, but failure to so notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve the
indemnifying party from any liability it may have under this Agreement, except
to the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced thereby. If it so
elects, after receipt of such notice, an indemnifying party, jointly with any
other indemnifying parties receiving such notice, may assume the defense of
such action with counsel chosen by it, provided that the indemnified
party shall be entitled to participate in (but not control) the defense of such
action with counsel chosen by it, the reasonable fees and expenses of which
shall be paid by the indemnifying party if there would be a conflict if one
counsel were to represent both the indemnified and the indemnifying party, and
by the indemnified party in all other circumstances. In no event shall the
indemnifying party or parties be liable for a settlement of an action with
respect to which they have assumed the defense if such settlement is effected
without the written consent of the indemnifying party (not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed), or for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for
(i) the Company, its officer, directors and controlling Persons as a
group, (ii) the selling Holders and their controlling Persons as a group
and (iii) the underwriters or agents and their controlling Persons as a
group, in each case, in connection with any one action or separate but similar
or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general
allegations or circumstances.


 


23
















 


4.8                                 Contribution.  If the indemnification provided for in this Article 4
is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an
indemnified party with respect to any Loss, then the indemnifying party, in
lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to the
amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such aggregate
Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of
the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the
other in connection with the statements or omissions (or alleged statements or
omissions) which resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations.  The relative
fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be
determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue (or alleged
untrue) statement of a material fact or the omission (or alleged omission) to
state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party
or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access
to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or
omission; provided, however, that the obligations of each of the Holders
hereunder shall be several and not joint and shall be limited to an amount
equal to the net proceeds such Holder receives in such registration and,
provided, further, that no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation
(within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be
entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation.  For purposes of this Section 4.8,
each Person, if any, who controls an underwriter or agent within the meaning of
Section 15 of the Securities Act shall have the same rights to
contribution as such underwriter or agent and each director of the Company,
each officer of the Company who signed a Registration Statement, and each
Person, if any, who controls the Company or a selling Holder within the meaning
of Section 15 of the Securities Act shall have the same rights to
contribution as the Company or such selling Holder, as the case may be.


 


4.9                                 Representations,
Warranties and Indemnities to Survive.  The indemnity and contribution agreements
contained in this Article 4 and the representations and warranties
of the Company referred to in Section 4.3(k) shall remain
operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination
of any underwriting or agency agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or
on behalf of the selling Holders, the Company or any underwriter or agent or
controlling Person or (iii) the consummation of the sale or successive
resales of the Registrable Securities.


 


4.10                           Lock-Up
Agreements.  The Company
agrees that, if requested by the managing underwriter in any underwritten
public offering permitted by this Agreement, it will not, directly or
indirectly, sell, offer to sell, grant any option for the sale of, or otherwise
dispose of any Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or
exercisable for Common Stock (subject to customary exceptions), other than any
such sale or distribution of Common Stock upon exercise of the Company’s
Warrants, in the case of an underwritten offering for a period of 60 days from
the effective date of the Registration Statement pertaining to such Common
Stock; provided, however, that any such lock-up agreement shall not prohibit
the Company from directly or indirectly (i) selling, offering to sell,
granting any option for the sale of, or otherwise disposing of any Qualifying
Employee Stock (or otherwise maintaining its employee benefits plans in the
ordinary course of business) or (ii) issuing Common Stock or securities
convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock upon exercise or conversion
of any warrant (including any other Warrant), option, right or convertible or
exchangeable security issued in connection with the plan of
reorganization.  The total number of days
that any such lock-up agreement may 


 


24

















 


be in effect in any 365-day
period shall not exceed 120 days.  The
lock-up agreements set forth in this Section 4.10 shall be subject
to customary exceptions that may be contained in an underwriting agreement if
any such registration involves a similar underwritten offering.


 


4.11                           Rule 144
Reporting.  With a view
to making available to the Holders the benefits of certain rules and
regulations of the SEC which may permit the sale of the Registrable Securities
to the public without registration, the Company agrees, so long as it is
subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Securities Act, to use
its reasonable best efforts to:


 


(a)                                  make and keep
public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144(c)(1) or
any similar or analogous rule promulgated under the Securities Act, at all
times after the effective date of this Agreement;


 


(b)                                 file with the
SEC, in a timely manner, all reports and other documents required of the
Company under the Exchange Act; and


 


(c)                                  so long as the
Holders own any Registrable Securities, furnish to such Holders forthwith upon
request: a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the
reporting requirements of Rule 144 under the Securities Act, and of the
Exchange Act; and such other reports and documents as any Initial Investor or
Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation
of the SEC allowing it to sell any such securities without registration.


 


4.12                           Obtaining
Exchange Listing.  The Company
will file a listing application for listing on the exchange on which the then
outstanding Common Stock is listed with respect to the Underlying Common Stock
as soon as practicable after the date hereof. 
The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to list the Warrants, and
maintain such listing, on such exchange or, if not possible, another U.S.
national securities exchange, in connection with any proposed underwritten
distribution of the Warrants that meets the applicable listing criteria.  A copy of any opinion of counsel accompanying
a listing application by the Company with respect to the Underlying Common
Stock or Warrants shall be furnished to the Warrant Agent, together with a
letter to the effect that the Warrant Agent may rely on the statements made in
such opinion.


 


5.                                      ADJUSTMENTS AND OTHER
RIGHTS.


 


5.1                                 Stock Dividend;
Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock.  If the Company at any time issues to holders
of the Common Stock a dividend payable solely in, or other distribution solely
of, Common Stock (a “Stock Dividend”), the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to such Stock Dividend shall be proportionately reduced and
the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of each Warrant
shall be proportionately increased.  If
the Company at any time subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend,
recapitalization or otherwise) the outstanding Common Stock into a greater
number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such
subdivision shall be proportionately reduced 
(but not below the par value per share of Common Stock) and the number
of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of each Warrant shall be
proportionately increased.  If the
Company at any time combines (by reverse stock split or otherwise) the
outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in
effect immediately prior to such 


 


25

















 


combination shall be
proportionately increased and the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable
upon exercise of each Warrant shall be proportionately decreased.


 


5.2                                 Other Dividends
and Distributions.  If at any
time or from time to time prior to the exercise of any Warrant the Company
shall fix a record date for the making of a dividend or other distribution
(other than as contemplated by Section 5.5), other than a Stock
Dividend covered by Section 5.1 or a distribution of rights or
warrants covered by Section 5.3, to the holders of its Common Stock
(collectively, a “Distribution”) of:


 


(A)                              any evidences
of its indebtedness, any shares of its capital stock or any other securities or
property of any nature whatsoever (including cash); or


 


(B)                                any options,
warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any of the following: any
evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of its capital stock or any other
securities or property of any nature whatsoever;


 


then,
in each such case, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such
record date shall be reduced immediately thereafter to the price determined by
multiplying such Exercise Price by the quotient of (x) the Fair Market
Value of the Common Stock on the last trading day immediately preceding the
first date on which the Common Stock trades regular way on the principal
national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is listed or admitted to
trading without the right to receive such Distribution, minus the amount of
cash and/or the Fair Market Value of the securities, evidences of indebtedness,
assets, rights or warrants to be so distributed in respect of one share of
Common Stock divided by (y) the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on
the last trading day immediately preceding the first date on which the Common
Stock trades regular way on the principal national securities exchange on which
the Common Stock is listed or admitted to trading without the right to receive
such Distribution; such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a
record date is fixed. In such event, the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon the exercise of each Warrant as in effect immediately prior to
such record date shall be increased immediately thereafter to the amount
determined by multiplying such number by the quotient of (x) the Exercise
Price in effect immediately prior to the adjustment contemplated by the
immediately preceding sentence divided by (y) the new Exercise Price
determined in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.  In the event that such Distribution is not so
made, the Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
exercise of each Warrant then in effect shall be readjusted, effective as of
the date when the Board determines not to distribute such shares, evidences of
indebtedness, assets, rights, cash or warrants, as the case may be, to the
Exercise Price that would then be in effect and the number of Shares that would
then be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant if such record date had not been
fixed.


 


5.3                                 Rights
Offerings.  If at any
time the Company shall distribute rights or warrants to all or substantially
all holders of its Common Stock entitling them, for a period of not more than
45 days, to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per
share less than the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the last trading
day preceding the date on which the Board declares such distribution of rights or warrants, the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to the close of business on the record date for such
distribution shall be reduced immediately thereafter to the price determined by
multiplying such Exercise Price by the 


 


26

















 


quotient of (x) the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on such
record date plus the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate of
the offering price of the total number of shares of Common Stock so offered for
subscription or purchase would purchase at such Fair Market Value divided by (y) the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on such
record date plus the number of shares of Common Stock so offered for
subscription or purchase.  In such event,
the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of each Warrant
as in effect immediately prior to the close of business on such record date
shall be increased immediately thereafter to the amount determined by
multiplying such number by the quotient of (x) the Exercise Price in
effect immediately prior to the adjustment contemplated by the immediately
preceding sentence divided by (y) the new Exercise Price determined in
accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.  In case any rights or warrants referred to in
this Section 5.3 in respect of which an adjustment shall have been
made shall expire unexercised and any shares that would have been underlying such rights or warrants
shall not have been allocated pursuant to any backstop commitment or any
similar arrangement, the Exercise Price and the number of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of each Warrant then in effect shall be
readjusted at the time of such expiration to the Exercise Price that would then
be in effect and the number of Shares that would then be issuable upon exercise
of each Warrant if no adjustment had been made on account of such expired
rights or warrants.


 


5.4                                 Issuer Tender
or Exchange Offers.  If the
Company or any subsidiary of the Company shall consummate a tender or exchange
offer for all or any portion of the Common Stock for a consideration per share
with a Fair Market Value greater than the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock
on the date such tender or exchange offer is first publicly announced (the “Announcement
Date”), the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the expiration
date for such tender or exchange offer shall be reduced immediately thereafter
to the price determined by multiplying such Exercise Price by the quotient of (x) the
Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Announcement Date minus the
Premium Per Post-Tender Share divided by (y) the Fair Market Value of the
Common Stock on the Announcement Date. 
In such event, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the
exercise of each Warrant as in effect immediately prior to such expiration date
shall be increased immediately thereafter to the amount determined by
multiplying such number by the quotient of (x) the Exercise Price in
effect immediately prior to the adjustment contemplated by the immediately
preceding sentence divided by (y) the new Exercise Price determined in
accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.  As used in this Section 5.4 with
respect to any tender or exchange offer, “Premium Per Post-Tender Share”
means the quotient of (x) the amount by which the aggregate Fair Market
Value of the consideration paid in such tender or exchange offer exceeds the
aggregate Fair Market Value on the Announcement Date of the shares of Common
Stock purchased therein divided by (y) the number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding at the close of business on the expiration date for such
tender or exchange offer (after giving pro forma effect to the purchase of
shares being purchased in the tender or exchange offer).


 


5.5                                 Reorganization,
Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale.  Any recapitalization, reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale of all or substantially all of
the Company’s assets or other transaction, which in each case is effected in
such a way that the shares of Common Stock are converted into the right to
receive (either directly or upon subsequent liquidation) stock, securities,
other equity interests or assets (including cash) with 


 


27

















 


respect to or in exchange
for shares of Common Stock is referred to herein as “Organic Change.”  Prior to the consummation of any Organic
Change, the Company shall make appropriate provision to ensure that each of the
Holders shall thereafter have the right to acquire and receive, in lieu of or
in addition to (as the case may be) the Common Stock immediately theretofore
acquirable and receivable upon the exercise of such Holder’s Warrants, (x) in
the case of a Mixed Consideration Merger, the Public Stock issued in such Mixed
Consideration Merger and (y) in the case of any other Organic Change, such
stock, securities, other equity interests or assets, in each case as may be
issued or payable in connection with the Organic Change with respect to or in
exchange for the number of shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore
acquirable and receivable upon exercise of such Holder’s Warrants, for an
aggregate Exercise Price per Warrant equal to (i) in the case of a Mixed
Consideration Merger, the aggregate Exercise Price per Warrant as in effect
immediately prior to such Mixed Consideration Merger times the Stock
Consideration Ratio and (ii) in the case of any other Organic Change, the
aggregate Exercise Price per Warrant as in effect immediately prior to such
Organic Change.  In any such case, the
Company shall make appropriate provision to insure that all of the provisions
of the Warrants shall thereafter be applicable to such stock, securities, other
equity interests or assets.  The Company
shall not effect any such consolidation, merger or sale of all or substantially
all of the Company’s assets where the Warrants will be assumed by the successor
entity, unless prior to the consummation thereof, the successor entity (if
other than the Company) resulting from consolidation or merger or the entity
purchasing such assets assumes by written instrument the obligation to deliver
to each such Holder upon exercise of any Warrant, such stock, securities,
equity interests or assets (including cash) as, in accordance with Article 5,
such Holder may be entitled to acquire. 
This Section 5.5 shall not apply to any Warrants or Common
Stock redeemed or sold in connection with any Organic Change pursuant to Section 6.1,
Section 6.2(b), Section 6.3(a)(i) and Section 6.3(b),
provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the adjustments set forth in this Section 5.5
shall be applicable to any Warrants that remain outstanding pursuant to this
Agreement in connection with a Public Stock Merger or Mixed Consideration
Merger (including any adjustment applicable in connection with such Public
Stock Merger or Mixed Consideration Merger).


 


5.6                                 Other
Adjustments.  The Board
shall make appropriate adjustments to the amount of cash or number of shares of
Common Stock, as the case may be, due upon exercise of the Warrants, as may be
necessary or appropriate to effectuate the intent of this Article 5
and to avoid unjust or inequitable results as determined in its reasonable good
faith judgment, in each case to account for any adjustment to the Exercise
Price and the number of shares purchasable on exercise of Warrants for the
relevant Warrant Certificate that becomes effective, or any event requiring an
adjustment to the Exercise Price and the number of shares purchasable on
exercise of Warrants for the relevant Warrant Certificate where the record date
or effective date (in the case of a subdivision or combination of the Common
Stock) of the event occurs, during the period beginning on, and including, the
Exercise Date and ending on, and including, the related Settlement Date.


 


5.7                                 Notice of
Adjustment.  Whenever
the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of each Warrant
is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company shall cause the Warrant Agent
promptly to mail by first class mail, postage prepaid, to each Holder notice of
such adjustment or adjustments and shall deliver to the Warrant Agent a
certificate of a firm of independent public accountants selected by the Board
(who may be the regular 


 


28

















 


accountants employed by the
Company) setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the
exercise of each Warrant after such adjustment, setting forth a brief statement
of the facts requiring such adjustment and setting forth the computation by
which such adjustment was made. The Warrant Agent shall be entitled to rely on
such certificate and shall be under no duty or responsibility with respect to
any such certificate, except to exhibit the same from time to time, to any
Holder desiring an inspection thereof during reasonable business hours. The
Warrant Agent shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any
Holders to determine whether any facts exist that may require any adjustment of
the number of shares of Common Stock or other stock or property issuable on
exercise of the Warrants, or with respect to the nature or extent of any such
adjustment when made, or with respect to the method employed in making such
adjustment or the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any shares of
Common Stock or other stock or property which may be issuable on exercise of
the Warrants. The Warrant Agent shall not be responsible for any failure of the
Company to make any cash payment or to issue, transfer or deliver any shares of
Common Stock or security instruments or other securities or properties upon the
exercise of any Warrant.


 


6.                                      CHANGE OF CONTROL.


 


6.1                                 Redemption in
Connection with a Change of Control Event.  Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control
Event (other than a Public Stock Merger or Mixed Consideration Merger), at the
election of each Holder in its sole discretion by written notice to the Company
or the successor to the Company on or prior to the Exercise Date, the Company
shall pay to such Holder of outstanding Warrants as of the date of such Change
of Control Event, an amount in immediately available funds equal to the Cash
Redemption Value for such Warrants, not later than the date which is ten (10) Business
Days after such Change of Control Event and the Warrants shall thereafter be
extinguished. For purposes of this Section 6.1, the Exercise Date
shall mean (a) if the Company entered into a definitive agreement with
respect to a Change of Control Event and has provided to the Holders notice of
the date on which the Change in Control Event will become effective at least
twenty (20) Business Days prior to the effectiveness of such event, the tenth
(10th) Business Day prior to such event and (b) otherwise, the fifth (5th)
Business Day following the effectiveness of the Change of Control Event.  The “Cash Redemption Value” for any
Warrant will equal the fair value of the Warrant as of the date of such Change
of Control Event as determined by an Independent Financial Expert, by employing
a valuation based on a computation of the option value of each Warrant using the calculation methods and making the assumptions set forth in Exhibit C.  The Cash Redemption Value of the Warrants
shall be due and payable within ten (10) Business Days after the date of
the applicable Change of Control Event.  If a Holder of Warrants does not elect to
receive the Cash Redemption Value for such Holder’s Warrants as provided by
this Section 6.1, such Warrants will remain outstanding as adjusted
pursuant to the provisions of Article 5 hereof.


 


6.2                                 Public Stock
Merger.  (a)  In connection with a
Public Stock Merger, the Company may by written notice to the Holders not less
than ten (10) Business Days prior to the effective date of such Public
Stock Merger elect to have all the unexercised Warrants remain outstanding
after the Public Stock Merger, in which case the Warrants will remain
outstanding as adjusted pursuant to Section 5.5 and the other
provisions of Article 5 hereof.

shall pay within five (5) Business Days after the effective date of such

6.3                                 Mixed
Consideration Merger.  (a) 
In connection with a Mixed Consideration Merger, the Company may by written

effective date of such Mixed Consideration Merger elect the following treatment

than the date which is ten (10) Business Days after such Mixed
Consideration Merger and (ii) the Warrant shall remain outstanding after
the Mixed Consideration Merger, as further adjusted pursuant to Section 5.5
and the other provisions of Article 5.  The portion of the Cash Redemption Value of
the Warrants payable pursuant to clause (i) of this Section 6.3(a) shall
be due and payable not later than the tenth (10th) Business Day after the date
of the Mixed Consideration Merger.


 


(b)                                 In the case of
any Mixed Consideration Merger with respect to which the Company does not make
a timely election as contemplated by Section 6.3(a) above, the
Company shall pay, within ten (10) Business Days after the effective date
of such Mixed Consideration Merger, to the Warrant Agent on behalf of each
Holder of outstanding Warrants as of the effective date of such Mixed
Consideration Merger, an amount in cash in immediately available funds equal to
the Cash Redemption Value for such Warrants determined in accordance with Section 6.1
and the Warrants shall be terminated and extinguished.


 


7.                                      WARRANT TRANSFER BOOKS.


 


The
Warrant Certificates shall be issued in registered form only. The Company shall
cause to be kept at the office of the Warrant Agent a register in which,
subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall
provide for the registration of Warrant Certificates and of transfers or
exchanges of Warrant Certificates as herein provided.


 


At
the option of the Holder, Warrant Certificates may be exchanged at such office,
and upon payment of the charges hereinafter provided.  Whenever any Warrant Certificates are so
surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Warrant Agent
shall countersign and deliver, the Warrant Certificates that the Holder making
the exchange is entitled to receive.


 


All
Warrant Certificates issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of
Warrant Certificates shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing
the same obligations, and entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement,
as the Warrant Certificates surrendered for such registration of transfer or
exchange.


 


30

















 


Every
Warrant Certificate surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall
(if so required by the Company or the Warrant Agent) be duly endorsed, or be
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B
or otherwise satisfactory to the Warrant Agent, duly executed by the Holder
thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.


 


No
service charge shall be made to a Holder for any registration of transfer or
exchange of Warrant Certificates. The Company may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in
connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Warrant
Certificates.


 


Subject
to compliance with any restrictions on transfer under applicable law and this
Warrant Agreement, any Warrant Certificate when duly endorsed in blank shall be
deemed negotiable and when a Warrant Certificate shall have been so endorsed,
the Holder thereof shall be treated by the Company, the Warrant Agent and all
other Persons dealing therewith as the absolute owner thereof for any purpose
and as the Person entitled to exercise the rights represented thereby, or to
the transfer thereof on the register of the Company maintained by the Warrant
Agent.  No such transfer shall be registered
until the Warrant Agent has been supplied with the aforementioned instruments
of transfer and any other such documentation as the Warrant Agent may
reasonably require.


 


8.                                      WARRANT HOLDERS.


 


8.1                                 No Voting
Rights.  Prior to the exercise of
Warrants and full payment of the Exercise Price thereof, or in the event of Net Share Settlement, prior to the election of a
Holder for Net Share Settlement, in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement, no Holder of a Warrant Certificate, in respect of such
Warrants, shall be entitled to any rights of a stockholder of the Company,
including, without limitation, the right to vote, to consent, to exercise any
preemptive right (except as otherwise agreed
in writing by the Company, including the subscription rights set forth in the
Investment Agreement), to receive any notice of meetings of stockholders
for the election of directors of the Company or any other matter or to receive
any notice of any proceedings of the Company.


 


8.2                                 Right of Action.  All rights of action in respect of this
Agreement are vested in the Holders of the Warrants, and any Holder of
Warrants, without the consent of the Warrant Agent or the Holder of any other
Warrant, may, on such Holder’s own behalf and for such Holder’s own benefit,
enforce, and may institute and maintain any suit, action or proceeding against
the Company suitable to enforce, or otherwise in respect of, such Holder’s
right to exercise or exchange such Holder’s Warrants in the manner provided in
this Agreement or any other obligation of the Company under this Agreement.


 


9.                                      WARRANT AGENT


 


9.1                                 Nature of
Duties and Responsibilities Assumed.  The Company hereby appoints the Warrant Agent
to act as agent of the Company as set forth in this Agreement. The Warrant
Agent hereby accepts such appointment as agent of the Company and agrees to
perform that agency upon the terms and conditions herein set forth, by all of
which the Company and the 


 


31

















 


Holders, by their acceptance
thereof, shall be bound. The Warrant Agent shall not by countersigning Warrant
Certificates or by any other act hereunder be deemed to make any
representations as to validity or authorization of the Warrants or the Warrant
Certificates (except as to its countersignature thereon) or of any securities
or other property delivered upon exercise or tender of any Warrant, or as to
the accuracy of the computation of the Exercise Price or the number or kind or
amount of stock or other securities or other property deliverable upon exercise
of any Warrant, the independence of any Independent Financial Expert or the
correctness of the representations of the Company made in such certificates
that the Warrant Agent receives. The Warrant Agent shall not have any duty to
calculate or determine any adjustments with respect to the Exercise Price and
the Warrant Agent shall have no duty or responsibility in determining the
accuracy or correctness of such calculation. The Warrant Agent shall not (a) be
liable for any recital or statement of fact contained herein or in the Warrant
Certificates or for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith
on the belief that any Warrant Certificate or any other documents or any
signatures are genuine or properly authorized, (b) be responsible for any
failure on the part of the Company to comply with any of its covenants and
obligations contained in this Agreement or in the Warrant Certificates, or (c) be
liable for any act or omission in connection with this Agreement except for its
own negligence or willful misconduct. The Warrant Agent is hereby authorized to
accept instructions with respect to the performance of its duties hereunder
from the President, any Vice President or the Secretary of the Company and to
apply to any such officer for instructions (which instructions will be promptly
given in writing when requested) and the Warrant Agent shall not be liable and
shall be indemnified and held harmless for any action taken or suffered to be
taken by it in good faith in accordance with the instructions of any such
officer, but in its discretion the Warrant Agent may in lieu thereof accept
other evidence of such or may require such further or additional evidence as it
may deem reasonable.


 


The
Warrant Agent may execute and exercise any of the rights and powers hereby
vested in it or perform any duty hereunder either itself or by or through its
attorneys, agents or employees, provided reasonable care has been exercised in
the selection and in the continued employment of any such attorney, agent or
employee. The Warrant Agent shall not be under any obligation or duty to
institute, appear in or defend any action, suit or legal proceeding in respect
hereof, unless first indemnified to its satisfaction, but this provision shall
not affect the power of the Warrant Agent to take such action as the Warrant
Agent may consider proper, whether with or without such indemnity. The Warrant
Agent shall promptly notify the Company in writing of any claim made or action,
suit or proceeding instituted against it arising out of or in connection with
this Agreement.


 


The
Company will perform, execute, acknowledge and deliver or cause to be
performed, executed, acknowledged and delivered all such further acts,
instruments and assurances as may reasonably be required by the Warrant Agent
in order to enable it to carry out or perform its duties under this Agreement.


 


The
Warrant Agent shall act solely as agent of the Company hereunder. The Warrant
Agent shall not be liable except for the failure to perform such duties as are
specifically set forth herein, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be
read into this Agreement against the Warrant Agent, whose duties and
obligations shall be determined solely by the express provisions hereof.
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Warrant Agent’s 


 


32

















 


aggregate
liability under this Agreement with respect to, arising from, or arising in
connection with this Agreement, or from all services provided or omitted to be
provided under this Agreement, whether in contract, or in tort, or otherwise,
is limited to, and shall not exceed, the amounts paid hereunder by the Company
to Warrant Agent as fees and charges, but not including reimbursable expenses.


 


9.2                                 Compensation
and Reimbursement.  The Company
agrees to pay to the Warrant Agent from time to time compensation for all
services rendered by it hereunder in accordance with Schedule B hereto
and as the Company and the Warrant Agent may agree from time to time, and to
reimburse the Warrant Agent for reasonable expenses and disbursements actually
incurred in connection with the execution and administration of this Agreement
(including the reasonable compensation and the expenses of its counsel), and
further agrees to indemnify the Warrant Agent for, and to hold it harmless
against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence, willful
misconduct or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in connection with the
acceptance and administration of this Agreement, including the costs and expenses
of defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the
exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder.


 


9.3                                 Warrant Agent May Hold
Company Securities.  The Warrant
Agent and any stockholder, director, officer or employee of the Warrant Agent
may buy, sell or deal in any of the Warrants or other securities of the Company
or its Affiliates or become pecuniarily interested in transactions in which the
Company or its Affiliates may be interested, or contract with or lend money to
the Company or its Affiliates or otherwise act as fully and freely as though it
were not the Warrant Agent under this Agreement. Nothing herein shall preclude
the Warrant Agent from acting in any other capacity for the Company or for any
other legal entity.


 


9.4                                 Resignation and
Removal; Appointment of Successor.  (a)  No resignation or removal of the
Warrant Agent and no appointment of a successor warrant agent shall become
effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor warrant agent as
provided herein. The Warrant Agent may resign its duties and be discharged from
all further duties and liability hereunder (except liability arising as a
result of the Warrant Agent’s own negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith)
after giving written notice to the Company at least thirty (30) days prior to
the date such resignation will become effective. The Company shall, upon
written request of Holders of a majority of the outstanding Warrants, remove
the Warrant Agent upon written notice provided at least thirty (30) days prior
to the date of such removal, and the Warrant Agent shall thereupon in like
manner be discharged from all further duties and liabilities hereunder, except
as aforesaid. The Warrant Agent shall, at the Company’s expense, cause to be
mailed at the Company’s expense (by first-class mail, postage prepaid) to each
Holder of a Warrant at his last address as shown on the register of the Company
maintained by the Warrant Agent a copy of said notice of resignation or notice
of removal, as the case may be. Upon such resignation or removal, the Person
holding the greatest number of Warrants as of the date of such event shall
appoint in writing a new warrant agent reasonably acceptable to the Company. If
the Person holding the greatest number of Warrants as of the date of such event
shall fail to make such appointment within a period of twenty (20) days after
it has been notified in writing of such resignation by the resigning Warrant
Agent or after such removal, then the Company shall appoint a new warrant
agent. Any new warrant agent, whether appointed by a Holder or by the Company,
shall be a reputable bank, trust company or transfer agent doing business under
the


 


33
















 


laws of the United States or any state thereof, in good standing and
having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000. The
combined capital and surplus of any such new warrant agent shall be deemed to
be the combined capital and surplus as set forth in the most recent annual
report of its condition published by such warrant agent prior to its
appointment, provided that such reports are published at least annually
pursuant to law or to the requirements of a Federal or state supervising or examining
authority. After acceptance in writing of such appointment by the new warrant
agent, it shall be vested with the same powers, rights, duties and
responsibilities as if it had been originally named herein as the Warrant
Agent, without any further assurance, conveyance, act or deed; but if for any
reason it shall be necessary or expedient to execute and deliver any further
assurance, conveyance, act or deed, the same shall be done at the expense of
the Company and shall be legally and validly executed and delivered by the
resigning or removed Warrant Agent. Not later than the effective date of any
such appointment, the Company shall give notice thereof to the resigning or
removed Warrant Agent. Failure to give any notice provided for in this Section 9.4(a),
however, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of
the resignation of the Warrant Agent or the appointment of a new warrant agent,
as the case may be.


 


(b)                                 Any corporation into which
the Warrant Agent or any new warrant agent may be merged or any corporation
resulting from any consolidation to which the Warrant Agent or any new warrant
agent shall be a party, shall be a successor Warrant Agent under this Agreement
without any further act, provided that such corporation would be eligible for
appointment as successor to the Warrant Agent under the provisions of Section 9.4(a).  Any such successor Warrant Agent shall
promptly cause notice of succession as Warrant Agent to be mailed (by
first-class mail, postage prepaid) to each Holder of a Warrant at such Holder’s
last address as shown on the register of the Company maintained by the Warrant
Agent.


 


9.5                                 Damages.  No party to this Agreement shall be liable to
any other party for any consequential, indirect, special or incidental damages
under any provision of this Agreement or for any consequential, indirect,
penal, special or incidental damages arising out of any act or failure to act
hereunder even if that party has been advised of or has foreseen the
possibility of such damages.


 


10.                               REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.


 


10.1                           Representations and Warranties of the Company.  The Company hereby represents and warrants
that the representations and warranties of the
Company set forth in Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5 and 3.6 of the Investment
Agreement and Stock Purchase Agreement and any other representations and
warranties made by the Company in Article III of the Investment Agreement
and Stock Purchase Agreements to the extent relating to the Warrants, are true
and accurate in all respects and not misleading in any respect.


 


11.                               COVENANTS.


 


11.1                           Reservation of Common Stock
for Issuance on Exercise of Warrants.  The Company covenants that it will at all
times reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of its
authorized but unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issue upon
exercise of Warrants as herein provided, such number of shares of Common Stock
as shall then 


 


34

















 


be issuable upon the exercise of all Warrants issuable hereunder plus
such number of shares of Common Stock as shall then be issuable upon the
exercise of other outstanding warrants, options and rights (whether or not
vested), the settlement of any forward sale, swap or other derivative contract,
and the conversion of all outstanding convertible securities or other
instruments convertible into Common Stock or rights to acquire Common Stock.
The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock which shall be issuable
shall, upon such issue, be duly and validly issued and fully paid and
non-assessable.


 


11.2                           Notice of Distributions.  At any time when the Company declares any
Distribution on its Common Stock, it shall give notice to the Holders of all
the then outstanding Warrants of any such declaration not less than 15 days
prior to the related record date for payment of the Distribution so declared.


 


11.3                           Replacement of
Warrants.  Upon the
effectiveness of the Plan and in accordance with the Investment Agreement
and/or Stock Purchase Agreements, as applicable, each Warrant shall
automatically be converted into a right to receive warrants to purchase such
number of shares or New Common Stock (as defined in the Investment Agreement,
as effective on the date hereof) (the “New Warrants”) and warrants to
purchase such number of shares of common stock of General Growth Opportunities, Inc.,
a new wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “GGO Warrants”), as is
set forth in Section 5.2 of the Investment Agreement or Stock Purchase
Agreements, as applicable.  If the conversion of the Warrants described
above occurs, (i) the New Warrants and the GGO Warrants shall have
substantially similar terms as are set forth herein except that (w) the
Expiration Date for each New Warrant and GGO Warrant shall be the seventh year
anniversary of the date on which those warrants are issued and (x) the
initial Exercise Price for each New Warrant and GGO Warrant, respectively,
shall be as set forth in the Investment Agreement or Stock Purchase Agreements, as applicable, and (ii) the Company and the Warrant Agent hereby
jointly agree and covenant to execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and
delivered, such further instruments or documents or take such other action (and
cause entities controlled by them to take such action) as may be reasonably
necessary to effect the issuance of the New Warrants and the GGO Warrants in
accordance with the terms hereof and the terms of the Investment Agreement or
Stock Purchase Agreements, as applicable.


 


12.                               MISCELLANEOUS.


 


12.1                           Money and Other Property
Deposited with the Warrant Agent.  Any moneys, securities or other property
which at any time shall be deposited by the Company or on its behalf with the
Warrant Agent pursuant to this Agreement shall be and are hereby assigned,
transferred and set over to the Warrant Agent in trust for the purpose for
which such moneys, securities or other property shall have been deposited; but
such moneys, securities or other property need not be segregated from other
funds, securities or other property except to the extent required by law. The
Warrant Agent shall distribute any money deposited with it for payment and
distribution to a Holder to an account designated by such Holder in such amount
as is appropriate. Any money deposited with the Warrant Agent for payment and
distribution to the Holders that remains unclaimed for two years after the date
the money was deposited with the Warrant Agent shall be paid to the Company.


 


35

















 


12.2                           Payment of
Taxes.  The Company shall pay all
transfer, stamp and other similar taxes that may be imposed in respect of the
issuance or delivery of the Warrants or in respect of the issuance or delivery
by the Company of any securities upon exercise of the Warrants with respect thereto.
The Company shall not be required, however, to pay any tax or other charge
imposed in connection with any transfer involved in the issue of any Warrants,
certificate for shares of Common Stock or other securities underlying the
Warrants or payment of cash to any Person other than the Holder of a Warrant
Certificate surrendered upon the exercise or purchase of a Warrant, and in case
of such transfer or payment, the Warrant Agent and the Company shall not be
required to issue any security or to pay any cash until such tax or charge has
been paid or it has been established to the Warrant Agent’s and the Company’s
satisfaction that no such tax or other charge is due.  The Company and each Initial
Investor agree that neither the issuance nor exercise of the Warrants is
governed by Section 83(a) of the Code or otherwise a compensatory
transaction, and the Company agrees that it will not deduct any amount as
compensation in connection with such issuance or exercise for federal income
tax purpose. The Company and each Initial Investor agree that for federal
income tax purposes, the Warrants have been granted as an option premium in
exchange for each Initial Investor agreeing, at the option of the Company, to
make the equity investment described in the Investment Agreement or Stock
Purchase Agreements, as applicable.


 


12.3                           Surrender of Certificates.  Any Warrant Certificate surrendered for
exercise or purchase shall, if surrendered to the Company, be delivered to the
Warrant Agent, and all Warrant Certificates surrendered or so delivered to the
Warrant Agent shall be promptly cancelled by the Warrant Agent and shall not be
reissued by the Company. The Warrant Agent shall destroy such cancelled Warrant
Certificates.


 


12.4                           Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost
and Stolen Warrant Certificates.  If (a) any mutilated Warrant Certificate
is surrendered to the Warrant Agent or (b) the Company and the Warrant
Agent receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft
of any Warrant Certificate, and there is delivered to the Company and the
Warrant Agent such appropriate affidavit of loss, applicable processing fee and
a corporate bond of indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them
harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Warrant Agent
that such Warrant Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the
Company shall execute and upon its written request the Warrant Agent shall
countersign and deliver, in exchange for any such mutilated Warrant Certificate
or in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Warrant Certificate, a new
Warrant Certificate of like tenor and for a like aggregate number of Warrants.


 


Upon the issuance of any new Warrant Certificate
under this Section 12.4, the Company may require the payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in
relation thereto and other expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses
of the Warrant Agent and of counsel to the Company) in connection therewith.


 


Every new Warrant Certificate executed and delivered
pursuant to this Section 12.4 in lieu of any destroyed, lost or
stolen Warrant Certificate shall constitute an original contractual obligation
of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Warrant Certificate
shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to the
benefits of this Agreement 


 


36

















 


equally and proportionately
with any and all other Warrant Certificates duly executed and delivered
hereunder.


 


The provisions of this Section 12.4 are
exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights or
remedies with respect to the replacement of mutilated, destroyed lost or stolen
Warrant Certificates.


 


12.5                           Removal of Legends.  Certificates evidencing the Warrants and
shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of the Warrants shall not be
required to contain any legend referenced in Sections 2.1, 3.6(e) and
3.6(f) (A) while a registration statement (solely for the
purposes of this and the immediately following paragraph, such term to include
a Registration Statement) covering the resale of the Warrants or the shares of
Common Stock is effective under the Securities Act, or (B) following any
sale of any such Warrants or shares of Common Stock pursuant to Rule 144,
or (C) following receipt of a legal opinion of counsel to Holder that the
remaining Warrants or shares of Common Stock held by Holder are eligible for
resale without volume limitations or other limitations under Rule 144.  In addition, the Company and the Warrant
Agent will agree to the removal of all legends with respect to Warrants or
shares of Common Stock deposited with DTC from time to time in anticipation of
sale in accordance with the volume limitations and other limitations under Rule 144,
subject to the Company’s approval of appropriate procedures, such approval not
to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.


 


Following the time at which
any such legend is no longer required (as provided above) for certain Warrants
or shares of Common Stock, the Company shall promptly, following the delivery
by Holder to the Warrant Agent of a legended certificate representing such
Warrants or shares of Common Stock, as applicable, deliver or cause to be
delivered to the Holder a certificate representing such Warrants or shares of
Common Stock that is free from such legend. 
In the event any of the legends referenced in Sections 2.1, 3.6(e) and
or 3.6(f) are removed from any of the Warrants or shares of Common
Stock, and thereafter the effectiveness of a registration statement covering
such Warrants or shares of Common Stock is suspended or the Company determines
that a supplement or amendment thereto is required by applicable securities
Laws, then the Company may require that such legends, as applicable, be placed
on any such applicable Warrants or shares of Common Stock that cannot then be
sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or under Rule 144 and
Holder shall cooperate in the replacement of such legend.  Such legend shall thereafter be removed when
such Warrants or shares of Common Stock may again be sold pursuant to an
effective registration statement or under Rule 144.


 


12.6                           Notices.  (a)  Any notice, demand or delivery
authorized by this Agreement shall be sufficiently given or made when mailed if
sent by first-class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to any Holder of a Warrant
at such Holder’s address shown on the register of the Company maintained by the
Warrant Agent and to the Company or the Warrant Agent as follows:

(b)                                 Any notice required to be
given by the Company to the Holders pursuant to this Agreement, shall be made by
mailing by registered mail, return receipt requested, to the Holders at their
respective addresses shown on the register of the Company maintained by the
Warrant Agent. The Company hereby irrevocably authorizes the Warrant Agent, in
the name and at the expense of the Company, to mail any such notice upon
receipt thereof from the Company. Any notice that is mailed in the manner
herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given when
mailed, whether or not the Holder receives the notice.


 


12.7                           Applicable Law; Jurisdiction.  This Agreement and each Warrant issued
hereunder and all rights arising hereunder shall be governed by the internal
laws of the State of New York.  In
connection with any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to
this Agreement or the Warrants, the parties hereto and each Holder irrevocably
submit to (i) the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States Bankruptcy
Court for the Southern District of New York until the chapter 11 cases of the
Company and its Affiliates are closed, and (ii) the nonexclusive
jurisdiction of any federal or state court located within the County of New
York, State of New York.


 


12.8                           Persons Benefiting.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the Company and the Warrant Agent, and their respective
successors, assigns, beneficiaries, executors and administrators, and the
Holders from time to time of the Warrants.  The Holders of the Warrants are express third
party beneficiaries of this Agreement and each such Holder of Warrants is
hereby conferred the benefits, rights and remedies under or by reason of the
provisions of this Agreement as if a signatory hereto.  Nothing in this Agreement is
intended or shall be construed to confer upon any Person, other than the
Company, the Warrant

Agent and the Holders of the Warrants, any right, remedy or claim under
or by reason of this Agreement or any part hereof.


 


12.9                           Relationship to
Investment Agreement and Stock Purchase Agreements.  The Warrants issued hereunder
have been fully paid upon issuance and shall remain issued, outstanding and
binding on the parties in accordance with the terms hereof notwithstanding any
failure of the transactions contemplated by the Investment Agreement or Stock
Purchase Agreements, as applicable, to be
consummated, any default by any party to the Investment Agreement or Stock
Purchase Agreements, as applicable, or the
invalidity or unenforceability thereof. 
Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if a failure by any Purchaser to
pay all amounts payable by such Purchaser under Article I and Article II
of the Investment Agreement or a Stock Purchase Agreements, as applicable, causes the termination of the Investment Agreement or
a Stock Purchase Agreement, as applicable, by the Company pursuant to Section 11.1(c)(iii) therein,
each Holder that is a member of the Purchaser Group of such Purchaser agrees
that as liquidated damages for such failure and without prejudice to the rights
and remedies of the Company under the Investment Agreement or Stock Purchase
Agreements, as applicable, any
Warrants held by such Holder shall be deemed cancelled, null and void and of no
further effect.  For the avoidance of doubt, the immediately preceding sentence applies only
to a Holder that is a member of a Purchaser Group where the applicable
Purchaser fails to pay all amounts payable by such Purchaser under Article I
and Article II of the Investment Agreement or a Stock Purchase Agreement,
as applicable, causing the termination of the Investment Agreement or a Stock
Purchase Agreement, as applicable, by the Company pursuant to Section 11.1(c)(iii) thereof,
and not to any permitted transferee of such member or any other Person.


 


12.10                     Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in any number
of counterparts, each or which shall be deemed an original, but all of which
together constitute one and the same instrument.


 


12.11                     Amendments.  (a)  The Company and the Warrant Agent
may from time to time supplement or amend this Agreement without the approval
of any Holder in order to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any
provision contained herein which may be defective or inconsistent with any
other provisions herein, or to make any other provisions with regard to matters
or questions arising hereunder which the Company and the Warrant Agent may deem
necessary or desirable and, in each case, which shall not adversely affect the
interests of any Holder.


 


(b)                                 In addition to the
foregoing, with the consent of the Supermajority
Holders, the Company and the Warrant Agent may modify this Agreement for the
purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating
any of the provisions of this Warrant Agreement or modifying in any manner the
rights of the Holders hereunder; provided, however, that no modification
effecting the terms upon which the Warrants are exercisable, redeemable or
transferable, or reduction in the percentage required for consent to
modification of this Agreement, may be made without the consent of each Holder
affected thereby.


 


12.12                     Headings.  The descriptive headings of the several
Articles and Sections of this Agreement are inserted for convenience and shall
not control or affect the meaning or construction of any of the provisions
hereof.


 


39

















 


12.13                     Entire Agreement.  This Agreement constitutes the entire
agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written
and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. In the
event of any conflict, discrepancy, or ambiguity between the terms and
conditions contained in this Agreement and any schedules or attachments hereto,
the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement shall take precedence.


 


12.14                     Specific Performance.  The parties shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms of
this Agreement.  Each of the parties
hereto hereby waives (i) any defenses in any action for specific
performance, including the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate and (ii) any
requirement under any Law to post a bond or other security as a prerequisite to
obtaining equitable relief.

  Certificate for
                                    
  Warrants

  



 


This certifies that [HOLDER] , or registered
assigns, is the registered holder of the number of Warrants set forth above.
Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof (a “Holder”), subject to the
provisions contained herein and in the Warrant and Registration Rights
Agreement referred to below, to purchase from GENERAL GROWTH PROPERTIES, INC.
(the “Company”), one share of the Company’s common stock, par value
$0.01 (“Common Stock”), subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of
certain events specified herein and in the Warrant and Registration Rights
Agreement, at the exercise price (the “Exercise Price”) of $15 per
share, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events specified
herein and in the Warrant Agreement.


 


This Warrant Certificate is issued under and in
accordance with the Warrant and Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of
[    ], 2010 (the “Warrant Agreement”), between the
Company and
[                                                ],
warrant agent (the “Warrant Agent”, which term includes any successor
Warrant Agent under the Warrant Agreement), and is subject to the terms and
provisions contained in the Warrant Agreement, to all of which terms and
provisions the Holder of this Warrant Certificate consents by acceptance
hereof. The Warrant Agreement is hereby incorporated herein by reference and
made a part hereof. Reference is hereby made to the Warrant Agreement for a
full statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties,
obligations and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Warrant Agent and the
Holders of the Warrants.


 


This Warrant Certificate shall terminate and be void
as of the close of business on
[              ],
2017(3) (the “Expiration Date”).


 






(3)                                  Note to Draft:  Insert the date that is the seventh
anniversary of the date on which those Warrants are issued.


 

















 


As provided in the Warrant Agreement and subject to
the terms and conditions therein set forth, the Warrants shall be exercisable
from time to time on any Business Day and ending on the Expiration Date.


 


The Exercise Price and the number of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of each Warrant are subject to
adjustment as provided in the Warrant Agreement.


 


All shares of Common Stock issuable by the Company
upon the exercise of Warrants shall, upon such issue, be duly and validly
issued and fully paid and non-assessable.


 


In order to exercise a Warrant, the registered
holder hereof must surrender this Warrant Certificate at the corporate trust
office of the Warrant Agent, with the Exercise Subscription Form on the
reverse hereof duly executed by the Holder hereof, with signature guaranteed as
therein specified, together with any required payment in full of the Exercise
Price (unless the Holder shall have elected Net Share Settlement, as such term
is defined in the Warrant Agreement) then in effect for the share(s) of
Underlying Common Stock as to which the Warrant(s) represented by this
Warrant Certificate are submitted for exercise, all subject to the terms and
conditions hereof and of the Warrant Agreement.


 


The Company shall pay all transfer, stamp and other
similar taxes that may be imposed in respect of the issuance or delivery of the
Warrants or in respect of the issuance or delivery by the Company of any
securities upon exercise of the Warrants with respect thereto. The Company
shall not be required, however, to pay any tax or other charge imposed in
connection with any transfer involved in the issue of any Warrants, certificate
for shares of Common Stock or other securities underlying the Warrants or
payment of cash in each case to any Person other than the Holder of a Warrant
Certificate surrendered upon the exercise or purchase of a Warrant, and in case
of such transfer or payment, the Warrant Agent and the Company shall not be
required to issue any security or to pay any cash until such tax or charge has
been paid or it has been established to the Warrant Agent’s and the Company’s
satisfaction that no such tax or other charge is due.


 


This Warrant Certificate and all rights hereunder
are transferable by the registered holder hereof, subject to the terms of the
Warrant Agreement, in whole or in part, on the register of the Company, upon
surrender of this Warrant Certificate for registration of transfer at the
office of the Warrant Agent maintained for such purpose in the City of New
York, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in
form satisfactory to the Company and the Warrant Agent duly executed by, the
Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, with signature
guaranteed as specified in the attached Form of Assignment. Upon any
partial transfer, the Company will issue and deliver to such holder a new
Warrant Certificate or Certificates with respect to any portion not so
transferred.


 


No service charge shall be made to a Holder for any
registration of transfer or exchange of the Warrant Certificates, but the
Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge payable in connection therewith.


 


Subject to compliance with any restrictions on
transfer under applicable law and this Warrant Agreement, each taker and holder
of this Warrant Certificate by taking or holding the 


 


2

















 


same, consents and agrees
that this Warrant Certificate when duly endorsed in blank shall be deemed
negotiable and that when this Warrant Certificate shall have been so endorsed,
the holder hereof may be treated by the Company, the Warrant Agent and all
other Persons dealing with this Warrant Certificate as the absolute owner
hereof for any purpose and as the Person entitled to exercise the rights
represented hereby, or to the transfer hereof on the register of the Company
maintained by the Warrant Agent, any notice to the contrary notwithstanding,
but until such transfer on such register, the Company and the Warrant Agent may
treat the registered Holder hereof as the owner for all purposes.


 


This Warrant Certificate and the Warrant Agreement
are subject to amendment as provided in the Warrant Agreement.


 


All terms used in this Warrant Certificate that are
defined in the Warrant Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to them in
the Warrant Agreement.


 


Copies of the Warrant Agreement are on file at the
office of the Company and the Warrant Agent and may be obtained by writing to
the Company or the Warrant Agent at the following address:
[                                                ].


 


This Warrant Certificate shall not be valid for any
purpose until it shall have been countersigned by the Warrant Agent.

EXHIBIT C


 


Option Pricing Assumptions / Methodology


 


For the purpose of this Exhibit C:


 


“Acquiror” means (A) the third
party that has entered into definitive document for a transaction, or (B) the
offeror in the event of a tender or exchange offer.


 


“Reference Date”
means the date of consummation of a Change of Control Event.


 


The Cash Redemption Value of
the Warrants shall be determined using the Black-Scholes Model as applied to
third party options (i.e., options
issued by a third party that is not affiliated with the issuer of the
underlying stock).  For purposes of
the model, the following terms shall have the respective meanings set forth
below:


 


	
  Underlying Security Price:

  	
  ·                  In the
  event of a merger or other acquisition,

   

  (A)        that
  is an “all cash” deal, the cash per share of Common Stock to be paid to the
  Company’s stockholders in the transaction;

   

  (B)          that
  is an “all Public Stock” deal,

   

  (1) that
  is a “fixed exchange ratio” transaction, a “fixed value” transaction where as
  a result of a cap, floor, collar or similar mechanism the number of Acquiror’s
  shares to be paid per share of Common Stock to the Company’s stockholders in
  the transaction is greater or less than it would otherwise have been or a
  transaction that is not otherwise described in this clause (B)(1) or
  clause (B)(2) below, the product of (i) the Fair Market Value of
  the Acquiror’s common stock on the day preceding the date of the Preliminary
  Change of Control Event and (ii) the number of Acquiror’s shares per
  share of Common Stock to be paid to the Company’s stockholders in the
  transaction (provided that the Independent Financial Expert shall make
  appropriate adjustments to the Fair Market Value of the Acquiror’s common
  stock referred to above
  as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the intent of this Exhibit C
  and to avoid unjust or inequitable results as determined in its reasonable
  good faith judgment, in each case to account for any event impacting the
  Acquiror’s common stock that is analogous to any of the events described in Article V
  of this Agreement if the record date, ex date or effective date of that event
  occurs during or after the 10 trading 

  



 

















 


	
   

  	
  day period over which such Fair Market Value is measured)
  and

   

  (2) that is a “fixed value” transaction not covered
  by clause (B)(1) above, the value per share of Common Stock to be paid
  to the Company’s stockholders in the transaction;

   

  (C)          that
  is a transaction contemplating various forms of consideration for each share
  of Common Stock,

   

  (1) the
  cash portion, if any, shall be valued as described in clause (A) above,

   

  (2) the
  Public Stock portion shall be valued as described in clause (B) above
  and

   

  (3) any
  other forms of consideration shall be valued by the Independent Financial
  Expert valuing the Warrants, using one or more valuation methods that the
  Independent Financial Expert in its best professional judgment determines to
  be most appropriate, assuming such consideration (if securities) is fully
  distributed and is to be sold in an arm’s-length transaction and there was no
  compulsion on the part of any party to such sale to buy or sell and taking
  into account all relevant factors  and without
  applying any discounts to such consideration.

   

  ·                  In the
  event of all other Change of Control Event events, the Fair Market Value per
  share of the Common Stock on the last trading day preceding the date of the
  Change of Control Event.

  
	
   

  	
   

  
	
  Exercise Price:

  	
  The
  Exercise Price as adjusted and then in effect for the Warrant.

  
	
   

  	
   

  
	
  Dividend Rate:

  	
  0 (which
  reflects the fact that the antidilution adjustment provisions cover all
  dividends).

  
	
   

  	
   

  
	
  Interest Rate:

  	
  The
  annual yield as of the Reference Date (expressed on a semi-annual basis in
  the manner in which U.S. treasury notes are ordinarily quoted) of the U.S.
  treasury note maturing approximately at the Expiration Date as selected by
  the Independent Financial Expert.

  
	
   

  	
   

  
	
  Put or Call:

  	
  Call

  



 

















 


	
  Time to Expiration

  	
  The number of days from the Expiration Date (as
  defined in Section 3.3) to the Reference Date divided by 365.

  
	
   

  	
   

  
	
  Settlement Date:

  	
  The
  scheduled date of payment of the Cash Redemption Value.

  
	
   

  	
   

  
	
  Volatility:

  	
  For
  calculation of Cash Redemption Value in connection with a Change of Control
  Event with respect to (A) the Warrants or the New Warrants, 20% or (B) the
  GGO Warrants, the lesser of (1) 30% or (2) the volatility of
  General Growth Opportunities, Inc. as determined by an Independent
  Financial Expert engaged to make the calculation, who shall be instructed to
  assume for purposes of the determination of volatility referred to in this
  clause (B)(2) that the Change of Control Event had not occurred;
  provided, however, that if the Warrants, New Warrants or GGO Warrants are
  adjusted as a result of a Change of Control Event, volatility for purposes of
  calculating Cash Redemption Value in connection with succeeding Change of
  Control Events with respect to such warrants (or their successors) shall be
  as determined by an Independent Financial Expert engaged to make the calculation,
  who shall be instructed to assume for purposes of the calculation that such
  succeeding Change of Control Event had not occurred.

  



 


Such valuation of the Warrant shall not be
discounted in any way.


 


For illustrative purposes only, an example Black-Scholes
model calculation with respect to a hypothetical warrant appears on the

Illustrative Example


 


Inputs:


 


S = Underlying Security Price


 


X = Exercise Price


 


PV(X) = Present value of the Exercise Price, discounted at
a rate of R = X * (e^-(R * T))


 


V = Volatility


 


R = continuously compounded risk free rate = 2 * [
ln (1 + Interest Rate / 2) ]


 


T = Time to Expiration


 


W = warrant value per underlying share


 


Z = number of shares underlying warrants


 


Value = total warrant value


 


Formulaic inputs:


 


D1 = [ ln [ S / X ] + (R + (V^2 / 2)) * T)] ÷ (V * ÖT)


 


D2 = [ ln [ S / X ] + (R - (V^2 / 2)) * T)] ÷ (V * ÖT)


 


Black-Scholes Formula


 


W = [N(D1) * S] — [N(D2) * PV(X)]


 


Where “N” is the cumulative normal probability
function


 


Value = W * Z

Commitment Letter


 


Ladies and Gentlemen:


 


Reference is made to that certain Cornerstone
Investment Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, by and between REP
Investments LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Purchaser”), and
General Growth Properties, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“GGP”), as
the same may be amended from time to time (the “Investment Agreement”),
pursuant to which Purchaser has agreed to, among other things: (i) purchase
(the “GGP Share Purchase”) 250,000,000 shares of common stock of the
Company on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Investment
Agreement and (ii) purchase up to 25,000,000 shares of common stock of GGO
pursuant to the Backstop Commitment and GGO Minimum Allocation Right
contemplated by Section 2.2 of the Investment Agreement (the transactions
referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) being referred to herein as the “Transactions”).  The proceeds of this Commitment, together
with the (i) funds deposited in the Escrow Accounts (as defined in the Escrow
Agreements) and/or (ii) amounts available to be drawn by Purchaser to fund
the Purchase Price and the GGO Purchase Price under Acceptable LCs, shall be
used by Purchaser to fund the Purchase Price and the GGO Purchase Price in
accordance with, and subject to the conditions contained in the Investment
Agreement.  Capitalized terms used herein
but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the
Investment Agreement and, for purposes of this letter agreement, the “Company”
shall be deemed to refer, prior to consummation of the Plan, to GGP and, on and
after consummation of the Plan, the Reorganized Company, as the context
requires.


 


1.                                        Commitment.  In the event of satisfaction or waiver (by
Purchaser) of the conditions precedent to Purchaser’s obligation to consummate
the Transactions set forth in Section 7.1 of the Investment Agreement and
subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth below, Brookfield Asset
Management Inc. (“Investor”), hereby agrees to provide, or cause to be
provided, directly or indirectly to Purchaser at the Closing of the
Transactions, an amount 


 

















 


in cash equal to the sum of (a) (i) $1,576,000,000
less (ii) an amount equal to the product of the Per Share Purchase Price
multiplied by the number of Conversion Shares (such difference, the “GGP
Share Purchase Commitment”), solely for the purpose of funding, and to the
extent necessary to fund, the GGP Share Purchase, and (b) 63.2% of the
amount of the GGO Purchase Price payable at the Closing, up to $79,000,000 (the
“GGO Rights Offering Commitment” and, together with the GGP Share
Purchase Commitment, the “Commitment”), solely for the purpose of
funding, and to the extent necessary to fund, the purchase of 63.2% of the
Unsubscribed Shares and 63.2% of the number of shares of GGO Common Stock
subscribed for by Purchaser pursuant to the GGO Minimum Allocation Right; provided
that Investor and its Permitted Assignees (as defined below) shall not, under
any circumstances, be obligated to contribute to, purchase equity or debt of or
otherwise provide funds to Purchaser or any other Person in any amount in
excess of the Commitment.  Except as
permitted in Section 6 of this letter agreement, the Commitment may not be
amended, modified, withdrawn or revoked by Investor or Purchaser without the
prior written consent of the Company, except in the event the Investment
Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms or this letter agreement
is terminated in accordance with its terms.


 


2.                                        Conditions.  (a) This letter agreement, including the
obligation of Investor to fund the Commitment, shall be subject to: (i) the
terms of this letter agreement, (ii) the concurrent consummation of the
Transactions pursuant to the Investment Agreement and (iii) the concurrent
payment to the Purchaser in an amount not less than the excess of the Purchase
Price and the GGP Purchase Price over the Commitment consisting of (x) all
Commitment Amounts from any Escrow Accounts under the Escrow Agreements (in
each case, as such terms are defined in the Escrow Agreements) plus (y) the
aggregate face amount of any Acceptable LCs then outstanding.


 


(b) This letter
agreement, and Investor’s obligation to fund the Commitment, will terminate
automatically and immediately upon the earliest to occur of: (i) funding
of the Commitment in connection with the Closing of the Transactions, or (ii) the
Termination Date.


 


3.                                        Third Party
Beneficiaries.  Purchaser
and Investor agree that the Company has relied on the existence of this letter
agreement and is an express third party beneficiary of the terms of this letter
agreement.  This letter agreement shall
be binding on Investor solely for the benefit of Purchaser and the Company, and
nothing set forth in this letter agreement shall be construed to confer upon or
give to any Person other than Purchaser or the Company any benefits, rights or
remedies under or by reason of, or any rights to enforce or cause Purchaser to
enforce, the Commitment or any provisions of this letter agreement.  Purchaser’s creditors shall have no right to
enforce this letter agreement or to cause Purchaser to enforce this letter
agreement.  The parties hereby agree that
their respective representations, warranties and covenants set forth herein are
solely for the benefit of the other party hereto and the Company, in accordance
with and subject to the terms of this letter agreement, and this letter
agreement is not intended to, and does not, confer upon any Person other than
the parties hereto and the Company any rights or remedies hereunder.


 


4.                                        No Recourse.  Notwithstanding anything that may be
expressed or implied in this letter agreement, no Person other than Investor
shall have any obligation hereunder and, 


 


2

















 


notwithstanding that Investor
may be a partnership, corporation or limited liability company, no recourse
hereunder or under any documents or instruments delivered in connection
herewith shall be had against any former, current or future controlling person,
director, officer, employee, agent, general or limited partner, manager,
member, stockholder, affiliate, representative or assignee of Investor or any
former, current or future controlling person, director, officer, employee,
agent, general or limited partner, manager, member, stockholder, affiliate,
representative or assignee of any of the foregoing, whether by the enforcement
of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, or by virtue of any
statute, regulation or other applicable law, it being expressly agreed and
acknowledged that no personal liability whatsoever shall attach to, be imposed
on or otherwise be incurred by any former, current or future controlling
person, director, officer, employee, agent, general or limited partner,
manager, member, stockholder, affiliate, representative or assignee of Investor
or any former, current or future controlling person, director, officer,
employee, agent, general or limited partner, manager, member, stockholder,
affiliate, representative or assignee of any of the foregoing, as such, for any
obligations of Investor under this letter agreement or any documents or
instrument delivered in connection herewith or for any claim based on, in
respect of, or by reason of such obligations or their creation.


 


5.                                        Confidentiality.  This letter agreement and the identity of
Investor in connection herewith shall be treated as confidential and is being
provided to Purchaser and, if applicable, the Company solely in connection with
the transactions contemplated by the Investment Agreement. This letter
agreement and the identity of Investor in connection herewith may not be used,
circulated, quoted or otherwise referred to, except with the written consent of
Investor and Purchaser; provided that no such written consent shall be
required (and Investor and its Affiliates shall be free to release such
information) for disclosures to Purchaser’s and Investor’s respective
Affiliates’ and Purchaser’s, Investor’s and such Affiliates’ respective
partners, members, directors, officers, employees, agents, legal, financial,
accounting or other advisors, potential debt and equity financing sources,
co-sponsors, related investment funds, consultants and other representatives,
and representatives of any thereof, so long as such persons agree to keep such
information confidential on terms substantially identical to the terms
contained in this Section 5; provided, further, that
Investor and Purchaser may disclose the existence of this letter agreement (i) to
the extent required or requested, as appropriate, by law, regulation, judicial
or governmental order, subpoena or other legal process or by any governmental,
regulatory or supervisory authority or stock exchange (including, to the extent
required by law, any Governmental Entity and the applicable rules of the
New York Stock Exchange) and (ii) to the Company and its directors,
officers and advisors; provided, further, however, to the
extent that disclosure is permitted pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) of
the foregoing proviso, prior to any such disclosure thereunder, (x) the
disclosing party shall (to the extent legally permissible) provide Investor
with a reasonable opportunity to review and provide comments on (which comments
shall be considered in good faith by the disclosing party), and take reasonably
available steps to resist or limit such requirement or request resulting in,
such disclosure and (y) with respect to any disclosure to the Company, its
directors, officers and advisors (each, a “Recipient”) pursuant to such
clause (ii), such disclosure pursuant hereto and the ability of the Company to
rely on and enforce the provisions of this Section 5 shall be conditioned
on the agreement by such Recipient to keep such information confidential on 


 


3

















 


substantially identical
terms to those in this Section 5 (including the obligations set forth in
clause (x) above).  Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Company and GGP may disclose this letter agreement in any
filings required to be made with respect to the Investment Agreement or
transactions contemplated thereby with the Securities and Exchange Commission
or in connection with any judicial or administrative proceedings in the
Bankruptcy Court without any additional notice or consent of the Investor.


 


6.                                        Assignment.  Except as provided in this Section 6,
this letter agreement may not be assigned by any party.  With the consent of Purchaser, Investor may
assign a portion of its obligations to fund the Commitment to one or more
Affiliates and/or persons who may become members of Purchaser (the “Permitted
Assignees”), but in each case only if such assignment shall not delay or
impair the funding of the Commitment or the completion of the transactions
contemplated by the Investment Agreement; provided, however, that
no such assignment shall relieve Investor of its obligations hereunder.  Any attempted assignment in violation of this
Section 6 shall be null and void. 
This letter agreement may not be terminated, amended or otherwise
modified without the prior written consent of Purchaser, the Company and
Investor, except to reflect the addition of one or more Permitted Assignees of
all or a portion of Investor’s obligations to fund the Commitment.


 


7.                                        Representations
and Warranties.  Investor
hereby represents and warrants as follows:


 


(a)                                           Investor is
duly organized, validly existing and in good standing (to the extent its
jurisdiction of organization recognizes the concept of good standing) under the
laws of its jurisdiction of organization.


 


(b)                                          The execution,
delivery and performance of this letter agreement by Investor is within its
corporate, limited partnership, limited liability company or comparable powers
and has been duly authorized by all necessary action, and no other proceedings
or actions on the part of Investor are necessary to perform its obligations
hereunder. This letter agreement is a valid and binding obligation of Investor
enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as such
enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganizations
or similar laws affecting creditors generally or by general equitable
principles (whether applied in equity or at law).


 


(c)                                           The execution,
delivery and performance by Investor of this letter agreement do not and will
not (i) violate the organizational documents of Investor, (ii) violate
any applicable law or regulation or judgment, injunction, order or decree to
which Investor or any of its assets are subject or (iii) constitute a
default (or an event that with notice or lapse of time or both would become a
default) under, result in any breach of or give rise to any right of
termination, cancellation, amendment or acceleration or conflict with any right
or obligation or Investor, other than, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) of
this Section 7(c), violations, defaults or breaches which would not impair
the ability of Investor to perform its obligations hereunder.


 


4

















 


(d)                                          Investor has
and will have on the Closing Date the funding necessary to fund the Commitment.


 


(e)                                           No notice to,
registration, declaration or filing with, exemption or review by, or
authorization, order, consent or approval of, any Governmental Entity, nor
expiration or termination of any statutory waiting period, is necessary for the
consummation by Investor of the transactions contemplated by this letter
agreement.


 


(f)                                             The Commitment
and this letter agreement reflect the entire agreement among the parties hereto
and are subject to no contingencies or conditions other than those set forth
herein and therein.  As of the date
hereof, no event has occurred which, with or without notice, lapse of time or
both, would constitute a default or breach on the part of Investor under this
letter agreement.


 


8.                                        Governing Law;
Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.  This letter agreement shall be deemed to be
made in and in all respects shall be interpreted, construed and governed by and
in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts
executed in and to be performed therein without regard to the conflicts of law
principles thereof.  The parties hereby
irrevocably submit to the personal jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court (as
defined in the Escrow Agreement), solely in respect of the interpretation and
enforcement of the provisions of this letter agreement, and in respect of the
transactions contemplated hereby, and hereby waive, and agree not to assert, as
a defense in any action, suit or proceeding for the interpretation or
enforcement hereof or of any such document, that it is not subject thereto or
that such action, suit or proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable
in said courts or that the venue thereof may not be appropriate or that this
letter agreement or any such document may not be enforced in or by such courts,
and the parties hereto irrevocably agree that all claims with respect to such
action or proceeding shall be heard and determined in such court.  The parties hereby consent to and grant any
such court jurisdiction over the person of such parties and, to the extent
permitted by law, over the subject matter of such dispute and agree that
mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such action or
proceeding in the manner provided herein or in such other manner as may be
permitted by law shall be valid and sufficient service thereof.  If the Bankruptcy Court determines that it
does not have subject matter jurisdiction over any action or proceeding arising
out of or relating to this letter agreement, then each party (i) agrees
that all such actions or proceedings shall be heard and determined in a New
York federal court sitting in The City of New York, (ii) irrevocably
submits to the jurisdiction of such court in any such action or proceeding, (iii) agrees
that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion
or other request for leave from any such court, including, without limitation,
a motion to dismiss on the grounds of forum non conveniens, (iv) agrees
that it will not bring any action arising out of or relating to this letter
agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this letter agreement in
any other court.  THE PARTIES HEREBY
WAIVE TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE
TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY
ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE
TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

9.                                        Specific
Performance; Damages.  The parties
agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the
provisions of this letter agreement were not performed in accordance with their
specific terms. It is accordingly agreed that the parties (and, for the
avoidance of doubt, the Company) shall be entitled to seek specific performance
of the terms hereof.  The parties hereby
agree that specific performance shall be the sole and exclusive remedy at law
or equity with respect to breaches by any of the parties in connection with
this letter agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and that it may
not seek or accept any other form of relief that may be available for breach
under this letter agreement or the Other Agreements (as defined below) or
otherwise in connection with this letter agreement or the transactions
contemplated hereby (including monetary damages). The parties hereby agree not
to raise any objections to the availability of the equitable remedy of specific
performance to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this
letter agreement by any party and to specifically enforce the terms and
provisions of this letter agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches
of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of each party
under this letter agreement. Notwithstanding any other term or condition of
this letter agreement, under no circumstance shall Investor’s maximum liability
hereunder for any reason, including its knowing and material breach of any of
its commitments set forth herein, exceed the Commitment, and such damages shall
not include any special, indirect or consequential damages.  Notwithstanding any provision of the Other
Agreements or this letter agreement to the contrary, in no event shall Investor
be liable to the Company for any damages resulting or stemming from or in any
way related to the failure of any other party to the Escrow Agreements,
Acceptable LCs or that certain Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company
Agreement of Purchaser, dated as of March 31, 2010, by and among the
Original Member, the Managing Member and the Members named therein (in each
case, as such term is defined therein) to have failed to fund such other party’s
respective commitment.


 


10.                                  Counterparts.  This letter agreement may be executed in any
number of counterparts (including by facsimile), each such counterpart being
deemed to be an original instrument, and all such counterparts shall together
constitute the same agreement.


 


11.                                  Notices.  (a) All notices or other communications

(a)                                   If on or prior to 5:00 p.m. U.S. eastern standard time
on the Release Date (the “Release Time”), REP and Investor provide
written instructions (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit IV, a “Joint
Instruction”) to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to pay the

(c)                                   If on or prior to the Release Time, REP or GGP delivers a
written certification in accordance with this Section 4(c), in
substantially the form of Exhibit V hereto (the “Closing Funding
Certification”), to the Escrow Agent (with a copy of such Closing Funding
Certification to be provided to each other party hereto in accordance with the
terms of Section 9 hereof), the Escrow Agent shall pay to REP the
Commitment Amount from the Escrow Account upon receipt of the Closing Funding
Certification by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms hereof.  Neither REP nor GGP shall be permitted to
deliver to the Escrow Agent the Closing Funding Certification unless and until
such time as REP or GGP, as applicable, can and does (i) certify that the
conditions set forth in Article VII of the Investment Agreement have been
satisfied (other than those conditions that are to be satisfied (and would be
capable of being satisfied) by action taken at the Closing) and (ii) attach

Investor, as applicable, the portion of the Escrow Amount to which they are
entitled.


 


5.                                    Conditions to Escrow.  The Escrow Agent agrees to hold the Escrow
Account and Escrow Amount and to perform its duties and obligations in
accordance with the terms and provisions of this Escrow Agreement.  Each of REP, GGP and Investor acknowledge and
agree that the Escrow Agent does not assume any responsibility for the failure
of REP, GGP or Investor to perform in accordance with the terms set forth in
the Investment Agreement, the LLC Agreement or this Escrow Agreement.  The acceptance by the Escrow Agent of its
duties and obligations hereunder is subject to the following terms and
conditions, which the parties hereto agree shall govern and control with
respect to the Escrow Agent’s rights, duties, liabilities and immunities:


 


(a)                                   The Escrow Agent may conclusively rely, and shall be
protected in acting or refraining from acting upon, any written notice,
certification, request, waiver, consent, receipt or other paper or document
furnished to it, not only as to its due execution and validity and
effectiveness of its provisions but also as to the truth and accuracy of any
information therein contained which the Escrow Agent reasonably believes to be
genuine and to have been signed and presented by the proper party or
parties.  The Escrow Agent is also
relieved from the necessity of satisfying itself as to the authority of the
Persons executing this Escrow Agreement in a representative capacity.  It is understood and agreed that any
references herein to joint instructions or joint written instructions or words
of similar import include any instructions signed in counterpart.


 


4

















 


(b)                                  The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any error of
judgment or for any act done or step taken or omitted by it in good faith, or
for any mistake of fact or law, or for anything which it may do or refrain from
doing in connection herewith, in each case, except in cases of its own gross
negligence or willful misconduct.


 


(c)                                   The Escrow Agent may consult with, and obtain advice from,
legal counsel in the event of any question as to any of the provisions hereof
or its duties and obligations hereunder, and it shall incur no liability and
shall be fully protected in acting in good faith in accordance with the
reasonable opinion and reasonable instructions of such counsel.


 


(d)                                  The Escrow Agent may resign and be discharged from its
duties and obligations hereunder by giving notice in writing to each of REP and
Investor of such resignation specifying a date (no earlier than thirty (30)
days following the date of such written notice) when such resignation will take
effect; provided, however, that until a successor Escrow Agent is
appointed by REP and Investor (it being agreed that a successor Escrow Agent
may only be appointed with the written consent of each of REP and Investor) and
such successor accepts such appointment, the Escrow Agent shall continue to
hold the Escrow Amount in the Escrow Account and otherwise comply with the terms
and conditions set forth in this Escrow Agreement, including the disbursement
provisions set forth herein; provided, further, however,
that REP and Investor agree to use their commercially reasonable efforts to
mutually agree on a successor Escrow Agent within thirty (30) days after the
giving of the written notice of resignation by the Escrow Agent as contemplated
hereby and if no such successor Escrow Agent shall be appointed within thirty
(30) days of such written notice, the Escrow Agent may, at the expense of REP
and Investor, (i) appoint a successor Escrow Agent which shall be an
internationally recognized national or state-chartered banking, trust or
savings association with at least equivalent financial standing and credit
rating as the Escrow Agent, (ii) petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Escrow Agent or (iii) deposit
the Escrow Amount with the Clerk of the Bankruptcy Court at which time the
Escrow Agent’s duties and obligations hereunder (but not its liability for any
gross negligence or willful misconduct hereof that pre-date the effective date
of such resignation for which the Escrow Agent may have liability under the
terms of Section 5(b) hereof) shall terminate.  Any successor Escrow Agent shall execute and
deliver an instrument accepting such appointment and shall, without further
acts, be vested with all the estates, properties, rights, powers, duties and
obligations of the predecessor Escrow Agent as if originally named as Escrow
Agent.  The resigning Escrow Agent shall
thereupon be discharged from any further duties and obligations under this
Escrow Agreement (but not its liability for any gross negligence or willful
misconduct hereof that pre-date the effective date of such resignation for which
the Escrow Agent may have liability under the terms of Section 5(b) hereof).


 


(e)                                   Except as otherwise provided in Section 5(b),
upon disbursement of the entire Escrow Amount pursuant to the terms of Sections
3 or 4 above or to a successor Escrow Agent, the Escrow Agent shall
thereafter be discharged from any further obligations hereunder.  The Escrow Agent is hereby authorized, in any
and all events, to comply with and obey any and all final judgments, orders and
decrees (not subject to a pending appeal) of any court of competent
jurisdiction or arbitrator(s) which may be filed, entered or issued, and,
if it shall so 


 


5

















 


comply or obey, it shall not be liable
to any other Person by reason of such compliance or obedience.


 


(f)                                     In the event that the Escrow Agent shall be uncertain as to
its duties, obligations or rights hereunder or shall receive instructions with
respect to the Escrow Account which, in its reasonable opinion, are in conflict
with other instructions received by it or any provision of this Escrow
Agreement, it shall, without liability of any kind, be entitled to hold the
Escrow Account (and the Escrow Amount on deposit therein) pending the
resolution of such uncertainty to the Escrow Agent’s reasonable satisfaction,
by final judgment of the Bankruptcy Court, or the Escrow Agent, at its option,
may, in final satisfaction of its duties hereunder, deposit the Escrow Amount
with the Clerk of the Bankruptcy Court.


 


(g)                                  Notwithstanding anything in this Escrow Agreement to the
contrary, in no event shall the Escrow Agent be liable for special, indirect or
consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited
to lost profits), even if the Escrow Agent has been advised of the likelihood
of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.


 


6.                                    Indemnification.  [Subject to Section 21 hereof,](2) REP,
GGP and Investor severally hereby agree to indemnify the Escrow Agent, its
directors, officers and employees and any Person who “controls” the Escrow
Agent within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”), for and to hold them
harmless against any loss, liability or expense (including, without limitation,
all expenses reasonably incurred in its investigation and defense and costs and
expenses reasonably incurred in enforcing this right of indemnification)
incurred without gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of any of
the Indemnified Parties arising out of or in connection with this Escrow
Agreement or its following any instructions or other directions from REP, GGP
and Investor, except to the extent that its following any such instruction or
direction is expressly forbidden by the terms hereof.  The provisions of this Section 6
shall survive the resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent or the termination
of this Escrow Agreement.  For the
avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding any term of this Escrow Agreement to the
contrary, no amounts payable under this Section 6 shall be paid out
of the Commitment Amount.


 


7.                                    Banking Days.  If any date on which the Escrow Agent is
required to make an investment or a payment pursuant to the provisions of this
Escrow Agreement is not a banking day, then the Escrow Agent shall make such
investment or payment on the next succeeding banking day.


 


8.                                    Escrow Costs; No Right of Set-off.  The Escrow Agent
shall be entitled to be paid a fee for its services pursuant to the Fee
Schedule attached as Exhibit I hereto and to be reimbursed for its
reasonable costs and reasonable expenses hereunder (including reasonable
counsel fees), which fees, reasonable costs and reasonable expenses shall be
paid by REP.  Nothing in this Section 8
limits the Escrow Agent’s rights against REP, GGP and Investor for the payment
of amounts, if any, due to the Escrow Agent under Section 6 above;
provided that no 


 










(2) Note to Draft:  Applicable only to Fund agreement.


 


6

















 


such amount shall be paid out of
the Commitment Amount.  The Escrow Agent
shall be entitled to withhold from any payment to be made hereunder (other than
from payment of the Commitment Amount) to any party hereunder amounts due from
such party pursuant to this Escrow Agreement.


 


The Escrow Agent acknowledges and agrees that it is holding the Escrow
Account (and all amounts on deposit therein) in its capacity as Escrow Agent
and that it has no right to apply amounts (including any investments) in the
Escrow Account against any obligations of the other parties to this Escrow
Agreement that do not arise under this Escrow Agreement.

Agreement and the LLC Agreement (and, in each case, the schedules and exhibits
attached hereto and thereto, if any) contain the entire agreement and
understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereby and supersede and replace all prior and contemporaneous

defined therein), notwithstanding any other provision of the Other Agreements
to the contrary, the terms hereof shall control.


 


11.                              Successors and Assigns.  None of REP, GGP or Investor shall assign
this Escrow Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior

by Section 5(d) above or by the immediately following proviso,
the Escrow Agent shall not assign this Escrow Agreement or any rights or
obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of REP and Investor; provided,
however, that without the consent the parties hereto, the Escrow Agent
shall be permitted to assign this Escrow Agreement and its rights and
obligations hereunder to any Person who purchases the Escrow Agent or any

days following the end of each calendar quarter, the Escrow Agent shall

preclude any right of further exercise or the exercise of any other right,
power or privilege.


 


14.                              Severability.  In the event that any part of this Escrow
Agreement is declared by the Bankruptcy Court to be null, void or
unenforceable, said provision shall survive to the extent it is not so
declared, and all of the other provisions of this Escrow Agreement shall remain
in full force and effect.


 


15.                              Governing Law; Jurisdiction.

of laws thereof.  The parties hereto
irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court with respect to
any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Escrow
Agreement.  EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO
HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL
PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS ESCROW AGREEMENT OR THE
TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.  The
parties hereto, on behalf of themselves and their respective heirs, successors,
and assigns, hereby covenant and agree to not institute or cause to be
instituted or continue prosecution of any suit or other form of action or
proceeding of any kind or nature whatsoever against Investor by reason of or in
connection with this Escrow Agreement; provided, however, that
nothing shall prohibit REP from instituting an action against Escrow Agent for
release of the Escrow Amount or prohibit Escrow Agent from commencing an
interpleader action that names REP as a defendant.

16.                              Section and Paragraph Headings.  The section and
paragraph headings in this Escrow Agreement are for reference purposes only and

delivered (including, without limitation, by facsimile transmission) in
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which shall
constitute the same instrument.


 


18.                              Withholding.
Any and all payments to be made to Investor or REP hereunder shall be subject
to reduction for any applicable tax, including any applicable withholding tax,
whether domestic or foreign.


 


19.                              Security Procedures.  In the event fund transfer instructions are
given (other than in writing at the time of execution of this Escrow
Agreement), whether in writing, by facsimile or otherwise, the Escrow Agent is
authorized to seek confirmation of such instructions by telephone call-back to
the Person or Persons designated on Schedule I hereto, and the Escrow
Agent may rely upon the confirmation of anyone purporting to be the Person or
Persons so designated.  The individuals
authorized to give or confirm funds transfer instructions may be changed only
in a writing actually received and acknowledged by the Escrow Agent.  The Escrow Agent and the beneficiary’s bank
in any funds transfer may rely solely upon any account numbers or similar
identifying numbers provided by Investor or REP to identify (i) the
beneficiary, (ii) the beneficiary’s bank, or (iii) an intermediary
bank.  The Escrow Agent may apply any of
the escrowed funds for any payment order it executes using any such identifying
number, even when its use may result in a Person other than the beneficiary
being paid, or the transfer of funds to a bank other than the beneficiary’s
bank or an intermediary bank designated. The parties to this Escrow Agreement
acknowledge that these security procedures are commercially reasonable.  All funds transfer instructions must include
the signature of the Person(s) authorizing said funds transfer.


 


20.                              Patriot Act Disclosure.  Section 326 of the Uniting and
Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and
Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (“USA PATRIOT Act”) requires the Escrow
Agent to implement reasonable procedures to verify the identity of any Person
that opens a new account with it. 
Accordingly, GGP, Investor and REP acknowledge that Section 326 of
the USA PATRIOT Act and the Escrow Agent’s identity verification procedures
require the Escrow Agent to obtain information which may be used to confirm the
identities of Investor and REP including, without limitation, name, address and
organizational documents of such party (“identifying information”).  The Escrow Agent agrees that Investor will
only provide organizational documents that constitute identifying information
which Investor deems reasonably necessary in its sole discretion to comply with
Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act. 
Investor and REP agree to provide the Escrow Agent with and consent to
the Escrow Agent obtaining from third parties any such identifying information
required as a condition of opening an account with or using any service
provided by the Escrow Agent.


 


21.                              [Liability as a Custodian.  GGP, REP and the Escrow Agent agree that
Investor has entered into this Escrow Agreement solely in its capacity as
custodian for Fund and 


 


11

















 


that
the liability of Investor under this Escrow Agreement shall be limited solely
to the extent that it is actually indemnified by Fund in respect of which it
acts as custodian as provided in Section 12.28(b) of the LLC
Agreement.  Fund agrees that, to the
extent the immediately preceding sentence or Section 12.28(b) of the
LLC Agreement operates to reduce the amounts for which Investor would otherwise
be liable to any Person to whom Investor owes obligations under this Escrow
Agreement, Fund agrees to be directly responsible and liable for any such
obligations of Investor and to pay or cause to be paid any amounts owing by, or
any other liabilities of, Investor to the extent Investor is relieved of
liability therefor by the preceding sentence or Section 12.28 of the LLC
Agreement.  Fund represents that it
enters into this Escrow Agreement in accordance with its authorized functions
as set out in the [Intentionally omitted] and in no other capacity and no
Person will have any claim against individual members of Fund or any delegates
of Fund in connection with the obligations of Fund under this Escrow Agreement
and the rights of individual members and delegates of Fund under this sentence
are held in trust for them by Fund.](4)

Fund employees listed above.](6)


 


Periodically, REP and/or Investor may issue payment
orders to us to transfer funds by federal funds wire.  The Escrow Agent reviews the orders to
determine compliance with the governing documentation and to confirm signature
by the appropriate party, in accordance with the list previously supplied to
the Escrow Agent.  The Escrow Agent’s
policy requires that, where practicable, it undertake callbacks to a party
other than the individual who signed the payment order to verify the
authenticity of the payment order.


 


Inasmuch as a Person is the only employee in his or her office who can
confirm wire transfers, the Escrow Agent will call him or her to confirm any
federal funds wire transfer payment order purportedly issued by him or
her.  Such Person’s continued issuance of
payment orders to the Escrow Agent and confirmation in accordance with this
procedure will constitute such Person’s agreement (1) to the callback
security procedure outlined herein and (2) that the security procedure
outlined herein constitutes a commercially reasonable method of verifying the
authenticity of payment orders. 
Moreover, REP and Investor agree to accept any risk associated with a
deviation from this policy.

ARTICLE I


 


COMPANY RELATED PRINCIPLES


 


SECTION 1.1                          Board of Directors. 
So long as Investor and the Investor Parties, collectively, shall
Beneficially Own more than ten percent (10%) of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, none of Investor or the
Investor Parties shall take any action that is inconsistent with its support
for the following corporate governance principles:


 


(a)                                  A majority of the members of the Board
shall be Independent Directors, where “Independent Director” means a
director who satisfies all standards for independence promulgated by the New
York Stock Exchange (or the applicable exchange where shares of Common Stock
are then listed);


 


(b)                                 the Board shall have a nominating
committee, a majority of which shall be Disinterested Directors;


 






(1) REP and other permitted Purchasers
under the Investment Agreement will sign.


 

















 


(c)                                  except as regards voting to elect the
Purchaser Board Designees (as such term is defined in the Investment
Agreement), in connection with any stockholder meeting or consent solicitation
relating to the election of members of the Board, Investor shall, and shall
cause the other Investor Parties to, vote in such election of members of the
Board all Common Stock that is Beneficially Owned by the Investor Parties in
proportion to the Votes Cast;


 


(d)                                 the Board shall
consist of nine (9) members and not be increased or reduced, unless
approved by seventy-five percent (75%)  of the Board;


 


(e)                                  any Change in
Control (other than a transaction contemplated by Section 2.1(b)(ii))
in which a Large Stockholder or its controlled Affiliate is the acquiror or
part of the acquiror group or is proposed to be directly or indirectly combined
with the Company must be approved by a majority of the Disinterested Directors
as if it were an Affiliated Transaction involving such Large Stockholder and by
a majority of the voting power of the stockholders (other than such Large
Stockholder or its controlled Affiliates); and


 


(f)                                    any Change in
Control (other than a transaction contemplated by Section 2.2(b)(v))
in which any Large Stockholder or its controlled Affiliate receives per share
consideration in its capacity as a stockholder of the Company in excess of that
to be received by other stockholders, must be approved by a majority of the Disinterested
Directors as if it were an Affiliated Transaction involving such Large
Stockholder and by a majority of the voting power of the stockholders (other
than such Large Stockholder or its controlled Affiliates).


 


The Company shall not waive any provisions
similar to Sections 1.1(c), (e) or (f) above for any Large
Stockholder under any other agreement unless the Company grants a similar
waiver under this Agreement.


 


SECTION 1.2                          Voting.


 


(a)                                  Subject to Sections 1.1(c), (e) and
(f), in connection with any matter being voted on at a stockholder
meeting or in a consent solicitation that the Board has recommended that the
stockholders of the Company approve, Investor and the other Investor Parties
may vote the shares of Common Stock that they Beneficially Own against or in
favor of such matter, in their sole and absolute discretion.


 


(b)                                 Subject to Sections 1.1(c), (e) and
(f), in connection with any matter being voted on at a stockholder
meeting or in a consent solicitation that the Board has recommended that the
stockholders of the Company not approve, Investor and the other Investor
Parties may vote the shares of Common Stock that they Beneficially Own:


 


(i)                                     against such matter; or


 


(ii)                                  in favor of such matter; provided,
however, that if Investor and the other Investor Parties (taken as a
whole) Beneficially Own shares of Common Stock that represent more than the
Voting Cap of the then-outstanding Common Stock, then, with respect to the
shares that account for the excess over the Voting Cap, Investor shall, and
shall cause the other Investor Parties to, vote in proportion to the Votes Cast.

(c)                                  For purposes of Section 1.2(b)(ii),
the number of shares of Common Stock that are Beneficially Owned by Investor
and the Brookfield Consortium Members shall not include any Common Stock held
by any independently operated business unit of Brookfield Asset Management Inc.
or any Affiliate thereof (each such independently operated business unit, a “Brookfield
Investment Advisor”) (i) in trust for the benefit of persons other
than Investor or any Brookfield Consortium Member, (ii) in mutual funds,
open- or closed-end investment funds or other pooled investment vehicles
sponsored, managed or advised or subadvised by such Brookfield Investment
Advisor, (iii) as agent and not principal, or (iv) in any other case
where such Brookfield Investment Advisor is disaggregated from Brookfield Asset
Management Inc. for the purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange
Act; provided, however, that  (A) in each case, such shares of
Common Stock were acquired in the ordinary course of business of the Brookfield
Investment Advisor’s respective investment management or securities business
and not with the intent or purpose on the part of Investor or the Brookfield
Consortium Members of influencing control of the Company or avoiding the
provisions of this Agreement and (B) where appropriate, “Chinese walls” or
other informational barriers and other procedures have been established.


 


SECTION 1.3                          Related Party Transactions.


 


(a)                                  Without the approval of a majority of the
Disinterested Directors, Investor shall not, and shall not permit any of the
Investor Parties to (and use all reasonable efforts to cause any Affiliate of
any Investor Party not to), engage in any Affiliated Transaction.  “Affiliated Transaction” means
(i) any transaction or series of related transactions, directly or
indirectly, between the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, on the one
hand, and any of the Investor Parties, on the other hand, or (ii) without
limiting the Company’s obligation to comply with Sections 1.5 and 1.6
hereof, with respect to the purchase or sale of Common Stock by any of the
Investor Parties, any waiver of any limitation or restriction with respect to
such purchase or sale in the Charter or the Transaction Documents, including
any exemption from the Ownership Limit (as defined in the Charter); provided,
however, that none of the following shall constitute an Affiliated
Transaction:


 


(i)                                     transactions expressly contemplated in
the Transaction Documents;


 


(ii)                                  customary compensation arrangements
(whether in the form of cash or equity awards), expense reimbursement, director
insurance coverage and/or indemnification arrangements (and related advancement
of expenses) in each case for Board designees, or any use by such persons, for
Company business purposes, of aircraft, vehicles, property, equipment or other
assets owned or customarily provided to members of the Board by the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries; and


 


(iii)                               any transaction or series of transactions
if the same is in the Ordinary Course of Business and does not involve payments
by the Company in excess of [$·] in the aggregate for such transaction or
series of transactions.


 


(b)                                 Following the Closing (as such term is
defined in the Investment Agreement), any decisions by the Company regarding
material amendments or modifications of the Plan (as such term is defined in
the Investment Agreement) or waivers of the Company’s material rights under the
Plan, shall require the approval of the majority of Disinterested 


 


3

















 


Directors to the extent such amendment, modification
or waiver relates to any Brookfield Consortium Member’s rights or obligations.


 


SECTION 1.4                          No Other Voting Restrictions. 
For the avoidance of doubt, except as restricted herein or in any
Transferee Agreement or by applicable Law, Investor and the other Investor
Parties may vote the Common Stock that they Beneficially Own in their sole and absolute discretion.


 


SECTION 1.5                          Amendment of the Charter. 
The Company hereby agrees that following the Closing Date, without the
consent of Investor, the Company shall not amend (or propose to amend) the
provisions of the Charter in a manner that would:  (a) amend the restriction on Beneficial
Ownership (as such term is defined in the Charter) of the outstanding capital
stock of the Company to a level other than 9.9%; (b) amend the restriction
on Constructive Ownership (as such term is defined in the Charter) of the
outstanding capital stock of the Company to a level other than 9.9%; or
(c) amend any waiver from the restrictions set forth in the foregoing
clauses (a) and (b) granted to any Brookfield Consortium Member in
any manner adverse to any Brookfield Consortium Member.


 


SECTION 1.6                          Waiver of Ownership Limited in the
Charter. 
The Company and the Board shall take all appropriate and necessary action to
ensure that the ownership limitations set forth in the Charter shall be waived
with respect to Investor, the Brookfield Consortium Members, any Brookfield
Investment Advisor and any Person (other than a transferee under Section 2.2(b)(vi) unless
such transferee executes a Transferee Agreement) to whom Investor, any
Brookfield Consortium Member or any Brookfield Investment Advisor has
transferred any of the Common Stock or Warrants in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement and the Investment Agreement, provided, insofar as the
waiver relates to Investor, a Brookfield Consortium Member, a Brookfield
Investment Advisor or any transferee, as the case may be, who owns (or would,
following such transfer, own) interests in excess of the Ownership Limit (as
defined in the Charter), that the Company has been provided with a certificate
containing the representations and covenants set forth on Exhibit D
to the Investment Agreement (or, to the extent necessitated by the
organizational structure of the party providing such certificate, a certificate
substantially similar to such Exhibit D) from such Investor,
Brookfield Consortium Member, Brookfield Investment Advisor or transferee, or
in the case of a transferee, a certificate containing the representations and
covenants set forth on Exhibit D to the Investment Agreement (or,
to the extent necessitated by the organizational structure of the party
providing such certificate, a certificate substantially similar to Exhibit D)
as modified to allow such transferee to own stock or other equity interests in
a tenant of the Company or its Subsidiaries to the extent such ownership would
not result in (i) the Company or any of its REIT Subsidiaries other than
GGP-Natick Trust or GGP Ivanhoe, Inc. recognizing more than $1 million of
“related party rent” in any year or (ii) GGP Natick Trust or GGP Ivanhoe, Inc.
recognizing more than $100,000 of “related party rent” in any year.  The parties hereto agree that the Company
may, in the discretion of the Board, grant to third parties any other waivers
from restrictions set forth in the Charter.

INVESTOR RELATED COVENANTS


 


SECTION 2.1                          Ownership Limitations.


 


(a)                                  Except as provided in Section 2.1(b),
Investor agrees that it (together with the other Investor Parties) shall not
acquire Economic Ownership of shares of Common Stock that would result in the
Investor Parties in the aggregate Economically Owning a percentage of the
then-outstanding Common Stock on a Fully Diluted Basis that is greater than the
Ownership Cap.  For the avoidance of
doubt, no Person shall be in violation of this Section 2.1 as a
result of (i) any acquisition by the Company of any Common Stock;
(ii) any change in the percentage of the Investor Parties’ Economic
Ownership of Common Stock that results from a change in the aggregate number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding; or (iii) any change in the number of
shares of Common Stock Economically Owned by the Investor Parties as a result
of any anti-dilution adjustments to any Equity Securities (as defined in the
Investment Agreement) Economically Owned by any Investor Party.


 


(b)                                 Notwithstanding Section 2.1(a),
any of the Investor Parties may acquire Economic Ownership of shares of Common
Stock that would result in the Investor Parties (taken as a whole) having
Economic Ownership of a percentage of the then-outstanding Common Stock on a
Fully Diluted Basis that is greater than the Ownership Cap under any of the
following circumstances:


 


(i)                                     acquisitions of shares pursuant to any
pro-rata stock dividend or stock distribution effected by the Company and
approved by a majority of the Independent Directors;


 


(ii)                                  if such acquisition is pursuant to a
tender offer or exchange offer, in each case that includes an offer for all
outstanding shares of Common Stock owned by the Target Stockholders, or a
merger, consolidation, binding share exchange or similar transaction pursuant
to an agreement with the Company, so long as in each case (A) such offer,
merger, consolidation, binding share exchange or similar transaction is
approved by a majority of the Disinterested Directors or by a special committee
comprised of Disinterested Directors (such tender offer or exchange offer, an “Approved Offer”,
and such merger, consolidation, binding share exchange or similar transaction,
an “Approved
Merger”), and (B) in any such Approved Offer, a majority of the
Target Shares are tendered into such Approved Offer and not withdrawn prior to
the final expiration of such Approved Offer, or in such Approved Merger, a
majority of the Target Shares that are voted (in person or by proxy) on the
related transaction proposal are voted in favor of such proposal.  As used in this Section 2.1(b)(ii):  “Target Shares” means the
then-outstanding shares of Common Stock not owned by the Investor Parties; and
“Target Stockholders” means the stockholders of the Company other than
the Investor Parties.


 


(c)                                  The limitation set forth in Section 2.1(a) may
only be waived by the Company if a majority of the Disinterested Directors
consent thereto.

SECTION 2.2                          Transfer Restrictions.


 


(a)                                  Subject to Section 2.2(b),
unless approved by a majority of the Independent Directors, Investor shall not,
and shall not permit any of the Investor Parties to sell or otherwise transfer
or agree to transfer (each of the foregoing, a “Transfer”), directly or
indirectly, any shares of Common Stock that are held directly or indirectly by
Investor or any of the other Investor Parties if, immediately after giving
effect to such Transfer, the Person that acquires such Common Stock (other than
any underwriter acting in such capacity in an underwritten public offering of
such shares) would, together with its Affiliates, to the actual knowledge (“Knowledge”)
of the transferor Beneficially Own more than ten percent (10%) of the then-outstanding
Common Stock.  A transferor
shall be deemed to have Knowledge of any transferee’s Beneficial Ownership of
Common Stock if the transferor has actual knowledge of the identity of the
transferee and such Beneficial Ownership has been, at the time of the agreement
to transfer, publicly disclosed in accordance with Section 13 of the
Exchange Act.


 


(b)                                 The limitations in Section 2.2(a) shall
not apply, and any Investor Party may Transfer freely:


 


(i)                                     to any Person (including any Affiliate of
Investor) if such Person (A) has executed and delivered to the Company a
Transferee Agreement (as defined below), and (B) has provided the Company
with a certificate containing the representations set forth on
Exhibit D of the Investment Agreement (or, to the extent necessitated
by the organizational structure of the party providing such certificate, a
certificate substantially similar to such Exhibit D) as modified to
allow such Transferee to own stock or other equity interests in a tenant of the
Company or its Subsidiaries to the extent such ownership would not result in
(i) the Company or any of its REIT Subsidiaries other than GGP-Natick
Trust or GGP Ivanhoe, Inc. recognizing more than $1 million of “related
party rent” each year or (ii) GGP-Natick Trust or GGP Ivanhoe, Inc.
recognizing more than $100,000 of “related party rent” each year;


 


(ii)                                  to one or more underwriters or initial
purchasers acting in their capacity as such in a manner not intended to
circumvent the restrictions contained in Section 2.2(a);


 


(iii)                               in a sale in the public market, in
accordance with Rule 144, including the volume and manner of sale
limitations set forth therein;


 


(iv)                              in any Merger Transaction (other than a
transaction contemplated by Section 2.2(b)(v) below) or
transaction contemplated by clause (iii) of the definition of Change of
Control (A) in which (in either case) no Investor Party or Affiliate
thererof is the acquiror or part of the acquiring group or is proposed to be
combined with the Company and (B) that has been approved by the Board and
a majority of the stockholders (it being understood that this clause
(iv) does not affect the agreement of the parties under Sections 1.1(e) or
1.1(f));


 


(v)                                 in connection with a tender or exchange
offer that (A) is not solicited by any Investor Party or its Affiliate
(unless such transaction was approved in accordance 


 


6

















 


with Section 2.1(b)(ii)) and in which all
holders of Common Stock are offered the opportunity to sell shares of Common
Stock and (B) complies with applicable securities laws, including
Rule 14d-10 promulgated under the Exchange Act; and


 


(vi)                              in connection with any bona fide
mortgage, encumbrance, pledge or hypothecation of capital stock to a financial
institution in connection with any bona fide loan.


 


(c)                                  No Transfer under Sections 2.2(b)(i) shall
be valid unless and until the Transferee Agreement has been executed by the
Transferee and delivered to the Company. 
For the purpose of this Agreement a “Transferee Agreement” means
a new agreement executed between the Company and the Transferee (to which the
Investor is not a party) substantially in the form of this Agreement or in such
other form as is reasonably satisfactory to the Company except that:


 


(i)                                     notwithstanding Section 1.1(c),
in connection with any stockholder meeting or consent solicitation relating to
the election of members of the Board, any member of a Transferee Group that has
executed a Transferee Agreement may vote the shares of Common Stock that it
Beneficially Owns in favor of one director candidate in its sole and absolute
discretion and regarding any other director candidates in such election, the
Transferee must vote in proportion to the Votes Cast;


 


(ii)                                  references herein to “Investor” shall be
deemed to apply to Transferees and references herein to “Brookfield Consortium
Members” or “Investor Parties” shall be deemed to apply to the Transferee’s
respective Transferee Groups as the context requires (other than in Sections
1.2(c), 1.5 and 3.1); and


 


(iii)                               any obligation on the part of Investor
hereunder to cause the Investor Parties to take any action or refrain from
taking any action shall only apply to the Investor Parties controlled by the
Transferee and the Transferee Agreement shall provide that the Transferee shall
use all reasonable efforts to cause Affiliates that the Transferee does not
control to take or refrain from taking the action that it is otherwise required
to cause under this Agreement.


 


SECTION 2.3                          Purchaser Board Designees.


 


(a)                                  Notwithstanding anything contained herein
to the contrary, the provisions in Article I (collectively, the “Stockholder
Protection Provisions”) shall be suspended and shall not apply in the event
that the Purchaser Board Designees that Investor is entitled to designate under
the terms of Section 5.10 of the Investment Agreement are not elected at a
stockholders’ meeting at which the stockholders voted on the election of such
Purchaser Board Designees (any such period, a “Suspension Period”); provided,
however, that this Section 2.3(a) shall apply only if
Investor has complied with its obligations under Section 5.10 of the
Investment Agreement, including Investor’s timely designation of Purchaser
Board Designees.  No Suspension Period shall
be deemed to occur during any reasonable period of time during which a
Purchaser Board Designee is being replaced upon the death, resignation,
retirement, disqualification or removal from office of such Purchaser Board
Designee.  Any Suspension Period shall
end upon the 


 


7

















 


election of the Purchaser Board Designees that
Investor is entitled to designate under the terms of Section 5.10 of the
Investment Agreement.  At all times other
than during a Suspension Period, the Stockholder Protection Provisions shall
apply in full force and effect.


 


(b)                                 Notwithstanding anything contained herein
or in the Investment Agreement, no Person that acquires Common Stock from the
Investor Parties or from any other Person shall have any rights of Investor
under Section 5.10 of the Investment Agreement with respect to the
designation of members of the Board.

purposes only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of

incapable of being enforced by any law or public policy, all other terms or
provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect

other distribution in respect of, or as a result of a reclassification
(including a change in par value) in respect of, shares of 


 


16

















 


Common Stock or other shares of the Company which, as
provided by this section, are considered as shares of Common Stock for purposes
of this Agreement and shall also apply to any voting equity security issued by
any company that succeeds, by merger, consolidation, a share exchange, a
reorganization of the Company or any similar transaction, to all or
substantially all the business of the Company, or to the ownership thereof, if
such security was issued in exchange for or otherwise as consideration for or
in respect of shares of Common Stock (or other shares considered as shares of

succession transaction.
