be bound, except for any such contravention, breach or default which would not have a material adverse effect on its business, assets, financial condition or results of operations taken as a whole; 

  
 3 








 (e) no authorization, consent or approval, or filing with or notice to any governmental body or
authority or other person is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance by it of this Agreement; and 
 (f) this
Agreement constitutes its valid and legally binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to: (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization and other laws of general
application limiting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and remedies generally; and (ii) general principles of equity, including standards of materiality, good faith, fair dealing and reasonableness, equitable defenses and limits as to

as being bankrupt or insolvent, seeks reorganization under any bankruptcy law or consents to the filing of a petition seeking such reorganization or has a decree entered against it by a court of competent jurisdiction appointing a receiver
liquidator, trustee or assignee in bankruptcy or in insolvency. 
 (c) This Agreement may only be terminated pursuant to
Section 6(b)(i) or 6(b)(iii) above by Terra Operating or Terra LLC with the prior approval of a majority of the members of the Independent Committee.

 4 








 
Agreement will be binding unless the prior approval of a majority of the members of the Independent Committee is obtained and the amendment or waiver is executed in writing by the party to be
bound thereby. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement will constitute a waiver of any other provision nor will any waiver of any provision of this Agreement constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided. A party’s
failure or delay in exercising any right under this Agreement will not operate as a waiver of that right. A single or partial exercise of any right will not preclude a party from any other or further exercise of that right or the exercise of any
other right.

Agreement without giving effect to applicable principles of conflicts of law to the extent that the application of the laws of another jurisdiction would be required thereby. 

14. Invalidity of Provisions. Each of the provisions contained in this Agreement is distinct and severable and a declaration of
invalidity or unenforceability of any such provision or part thereof by a court of competent jurisdiction will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the parties waive any
provision of law which renders any provision of this Agreement invalid or unenforceable in any respect. The parties will engage in good faith negotiations to replace any provision which is declared invalid or unenforceable with a valid and
enforceable provision, the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid or unenforceable provision which it replaces.

its directors, officers, employees or agents, to any other party to this Agreement or its directors, officers, employees or agents, except to the extent that the same has been reduced to writing and included as a term of this Agreement, and none of
the parties to this Agreement has been induced to enter into this Agreement by reason of any such warranty, representation, opinion, advice or assertion of fact. Accordingly, there will be no liability, either in tort or in contract, assessed in
