Section 16 are breached), and (y) prior to Sponsor or Seller entering into any modification, supplement or amendment of a Restrictive Covenant made in favor of any Person, Sponsor and Seller shall have executed a further amendment to this
Agreement in a form acceptable to the Buyer whereby the applicable Restrictive Covenant shall be modified, supplemented or amended. With respect to such amendment, Sponsor and Seller shall, in the event that Buyer so requests, also have delivered to

with respect to the Seller or the Sponsor, and which may be the notice given under Section 14(a)(i) above), Buyer may (A) immediately sell, at a public or private sale in a commercially reasonable manner and at such price or prices as
Buyer may reasonably deem satisfactory any or all of the Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans or (B) in its sole discretion elect, in lieu of selling all or a portion of such Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans, to give Seller credit
for such Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans in an amount equal to the Market Value of such Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans against the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Price for such Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans and any other

 -29- 








 
disposition of Purchased Securities and Purchased Loans effected pursuant to this Section 14(a)(iii) shall be applied, (v) first, to the

 SECTION 19. Intentionally omitted. 
 SECTION 20. Intentionally omitted. 
 SECTION 21. Recourse and

 (A) Limited Recourse. 
 (a) “Directors” shall mean the directors of AHR Ireland who are employees of Citco Corporate Services (Ireland) Limited as shall
be appointed from time to time as directors of AHR Ireland and shall include the employer of the directors, the shareholders of the employer, it’s shareholders and agents (if any). For the avoidance of doubt and for the purposes of this
provision only, neither the Guarantor, nor any of its subsidiaries or Affiliates shall be deemed to be a “Director” of AHR Ireland; 
 (b) Subject to clause (c) below, the Buyer shall not take or initiate any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings (including, without limitation, examinership) or issue any petition for the winding up of Irish
Seller. If any such winding up, insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings of Irish Seller shall commence, the Buyer may exercise any right and take any action available to any creditor in any such circumstances. 
 (c) the Buyer may enforce the Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions thereof and such enforcement may include, without
limitation, the appointment by it of a receiver to all or any part of the Collateral; 
 (d) Buyer’s recourse in respect
of the Repurchase Price or any claim against Seller relating or in connection with the Transaction Documents is limited to the Purchased Assets, the other DB Primary Interests, the DB Secondary Collateral, the Additional Collateral and the sums,
proceeds, receivables and all other rights relating, appertaining or attaching thereto or deriving therefrom. In such regard, Buyer may take all or any such action with respect to such assets to seek to maximize its return upon enforcement. For the
avoidance of doubt, this provision shall only limit the liability of Seller for the discharge of all obligations under the Transaction Documents and any claim against Seller in respect of or in connection with the Transaction Documents, and shall
not limit or restrict in any way the accrual of interest on any unpaid amount, or, other than in respect of Seller, derogate from or otherwise limit the right of recovery, realization or application by Buyer on any unpaid amount or pursuant to any
of the Transaction 

  

 -30- 








 
Documents; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 21(A)(a) shall limit the rights of Buyer to bring or commence any action, claim or
proceeding (or take any other action) as it may see fit for the sole purpose of enabling it to claim against the Sponsor for the full amount of any loss it may incur hereunder; 
 (e) for the avoidance of doubt, save as expressly prohibited in this Section 21, nothing in this Section 21 shall
extinguish or be deemed to extinguish the right of the Buyer to contact and hold meetings with any other creditor of Sponsor, AHR Capital or any of their respective Subsidiaries; and 
 (f) absent fraud, negligence, willful or misleading misconduct, deliberate action or omission designed to mislead, avoid, reduce or
mitigate liability, or breach of statutory duty, no personal liability shall attach to the Directors and the Buyer shall not take or initiate any proceedings or issue any petition against the Directors in connection with the Loan Documents.

 (B) Acknowledgement of Strict Foreclosure Remedy. 
 (a) Each of Sponsor and Seller hereby acknowledge that, but for the waivers granted by the Buyer prior to the Amendment Effective Date, it
is in default under the Repurchase Agreement for purposes of Section 9-620 of the UCC. 
 (b) Each of Sponsor and Seller
hereby acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, should anyone successfully challenge the Buyer’s ability to accept the Collateral in full satisfaction of the Transactions pursuant to the terms of
Section 14 of this Agreement, the Buyer shall retain all of the rights and remedies afforded a secured creditor under the UCC and any other applicable law. 
 (C) Automatic Stay. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in recognition of the risks associated with the
Buyer’s execution and performance of the Restructuring Amendment, and in consideration of the waivers of margin payments, waivers of financial covenants and other modifications to the Transaction Documents, Sponsor and Seller, for itself and on
behalf of all of their respective Subsidiaries, agree that in the event that Sponsor or Seller becomes subject to any bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings, the Buyer shall be entitled to relief from any automatic stay imposed by Section 362 of
the Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable law, or otherwise, on or against the exercise of the rights and remedies otherwise available to Buyer hereunder, in any Transaction Document and as otherwise provided by law, and Sponsor and Seller, for
itself and on behalf of all of their respective Subsidiaries, hereby waives the benefit of such automatic stay and consent and agree to raise no objection to such relief.”
