**SECTION 6<br>INFORMATION**

The Issuer hereby represents and warrants that (a) all written information and data relating to the Issuer and its subsidiaries (other than customary forecasts or projections of the Issuer and other than information of a general economic or industry specific nature) that have been or will be made available to the Commitment Parties by or on behalf of the Issuer or that has been filed or furnished to the SEC by or on behalf of the Issuer since January 1, 2025 does not or will not, when furnished, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not materially misleading, taken as a whole, in light of the circumstances under which such statements are made and (b) any forecasts or projections relating to the Issuer and its subsidiaries that have been or will be made available to the Commitment Parties by or on behalf of the Issuer or any of their respective representatives have been or will be prepared in good faith based upon assumptions that are believed by the Issuer to be reasonable at the time any such forecasts or projections are delivered to the Commitment Parties; it being understood that any such forecasts and projections are not to be viewed as facts, are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the Issuer's control, that no assurance can be given that any particular forecasts or projections will be realized, that actual results may differ significantly from the projected results and that such differences may be material; and it being further understood that the Issuer has no obligation to update any forecasts or projections provided to the Commitment Parties as a result of developments occurring after the date thereof. The Issuer agrees that, if at any time prior to the issuance of the New Notes, the Issuer becomes aware that the representation and warranty made by such party in clause (a) of the preceding sentence would be incorrect in any material respect if such information or data were being furnished at such time, then the Issuer shall promptly supplement such information and/or data so that the representation and warranty set forth in clause (a) of the preceding sentence would be correct in all material respects under those circumstances.

**SECTION 7<br>INDEMNIFICATION**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)The Issuer, together with its respective successors and assigns (each, an "**<u>Indemnifying Party</u>**"), on a joint and several basis, shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Commitment Party and each of such Commitment Party's Affiliates and Related Funds and each of their respective officers, directors, managers, equityholders, partners, stockholders, members, employees, advisors, accountants, attorneys, financial advisors, consultants, agents and other representatives and any Affiliate or Related Fund of the foregoing, and each of their respective successors and assigns (each, an "**<u>Indemnified Party</u>**") from and against, and shall promptly reimburse each Indemnified Party for, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, reasonable and documented costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable and documented attorneys' fees and expenses, interest, penalties, judgments and settlements, whether or not related to a third party claim, imposed on, sustained or incurred or suffered by, or asserted against, any Indemnified Party, as a result of, arising out of or resulting from or in connection with any action, suit or proceeding (solely as related to or arising from or in connection with this Agreement, the New Notes Definitive Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby), challenge, litigation or investigation relating to any of the foregoing, or any claim or demand (solely as related to or arising from this Agreement, the New Notes Definitive Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby) (each, an "**<u>Action</u>**") (collectively,

------

"**<u>Indemnified Liabilities</u>**"), irrespective of whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the New Notes Definitive Documents are consummated or whether or not this Agreement is terminated; *provided*, that Indemnified Liabilities shall include liabilities arising out of or in connection with any contributory or comparative negligence of any Indemnified Party, but shall exclude any portion of such losses, damages, liabilities, costs or expenses found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to arise from an Indemnified Party's bad faith or a willful or intentional breach of the obligations of such Indemnified Party under this Agreement. In addition, the Indemnified Liabilities shall exclude any claim by one Commitment Party against another Commitment Party. This Section 7(a) shall not apply with respect to taxes other than any taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-tax claim.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)Each Indemnified Party entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt written notice to the Indemnifying Party of any Action with respect to which it intends to seek indemnification or contribution pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) permit such Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of such Action with counsel selected by the Indemnified Party and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnifying Party, *provided* that the failure to so notify any Indemnifying Party will not relieve any Indemnifying Party from any liability that any Indemnifying Party may have hereunder except to the extent such Indemnifying Party has been materially prejudiced by such failure; *provided*, *further*, that any Indemnified Party entitled to indemnification hereunder shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such Action, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party unless (x) the Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses, (y) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed to assume the defense of such Action within 15 days of delivery of the written notice of the Indemnified Party with respect to such claim or failed to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party or (z) in the reasonable judgment of such Indemnified Party, based upon advice of its counsel, a conflict of interest may exist between such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Action (in which case, if the Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such claim on behalf of such Indemnified Party). In connection with any settlement negotiated by an Indemnifying Party, without the consent of the Indemnified Party, no Indemnifying Party shall, and no Indemnified Party shall be required by an Indemnifying Party to, (A) enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of a full and unconditional release from all liability in respect to such Action, (B) enter into any settlement that attributes or admits liability or fault to the Indemnified Party, or (C) consent to the entry of any judgment that does not include as a term thereof a full dismissal of the Action with prejudice. In addition, without the consent of the Indemnified Party, no Indemnifying Party shall be permitted to consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which provides for any action or restriction on the part of the Indemnified Party other than the payment of money damages which are to be paid in full by the Indemnifying Parties. If an Indemnifying Party fails or elects not to assume the defense of a claim or is not entitled to assume or continue the defense of such claim pursuant to the foregoing, the Indemnified Party shall have the right (without prejudice to its right of indemnification hereunder), in its discretion, to contest, defend and litigate such claim and may settle such claim, either before or after the initiation of litigation, at such time and upon such terms as the Indemnified Party deems fair and reasonable; *provided*, *however*, that at least 10 days prior to any settlement, written notice of its intention to settle is given to such Indemnifying Party. If requested by an Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party agrees (at the expense of the Indemnifying Party) to reasonably cooperate with such Indemnifying Party and its counsel in contesting any claim that such Indemnifying Party elects to contest; *provided* that such cooperation shall not include the disclosure of any information to the extent that the disclosure thereof would violate any attorney-client privilege, law, rule or regulation, or any obligation of confidentiality binding on such Indemnified Party.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)If for any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to any Indemnified Party or insufficient to hold it harmless from losses that are subject to indemnification pursuant to <u>Section 7(a)</u>, then the Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable as a result of such loss in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Party, on the other hand, but also the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Party, on the other hand, as well as any relevant equitable considerations. It is hereby agreed that the relative benefits to an Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and an Indemnified Party, on the other hand, with respect to the commitments set forth herein shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as (i) the total value paid to or received by or proposed to be paid to or received by, the Indemnifying Party in respect of the issuance of New Notes contemplated by this Agreement bear to (ii) all fees and reimbursements actually received by the Indemnified Parties in connection with this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)The terms set forth in this <u>Section 7</u> shall survive termination of this Agreement and shall remain in full force and effect regardless of whether the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)the entry into any amendment, modification or supplement pursuant to <u>Section 9(i)</u> that would have a materially adverse and disproportionate effect on such

------

Commitment Party, or alter in any material respect adverse to such Commitment Party the terms of the New Notes; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv)the Outside Date is extended without such Commitment Party's consent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)In the event that a Commitment Party terminates this Agreement as to itself pursuant to <u>Section 8(b)</u>, the Commitment Parties that have not terminated this Agreement shall have the right and opportunity (but not the obligation), within three (3) Business Days (the "**<u>Termination Replacement Period</u>**") (or such longer period as may be provided by the Company with the consent of the Requisite Commitment Parties) after receipt of written notice from the terminating Commitment Party to the Company, non-terminating Commitment Parties and Commitment Parties' Legal Counsel of such termination, to revise <u>Schedule A</u> to re-allocate such terminating Commitment Party's Commitments, as applicable, among the Commitment Parties that have not terminated this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)As long as the Company is not in material breach of this Agreement, the Company may terminate this Agreement with respect to any Commitment Party by written notice to the Commitment Party upon the occurrence of a material breach by such Commitment Party of its obligations or representations and warranties hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, nothing in this Agreement shall require the Company to issue the New Notes on the Closing Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)Upon any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this <u>Section 8</u>, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and there shall be no further obligations or liabilities on the part of the terminating Parties; *provided* (a) the obligations to pay fees and expenses in accordance with <u>Section 9(a)</u> of this Agreement and the indemnification obligations pursuant to <u>Section 7</u> hereof shall survive any such termination of this Agreement indefinitely and shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any such termination (*provided*, *however*, that in the case of a termination under <u>Section 8(c)</u>, the survival of the indemnification obligations with respect to the applicable Commitment Party shall be limited to the period preceding such termination) and (b) the provisions of this <u>Section 8(e)</u> and <u>Section 9</u> shall survive termination of this Agreement in accordance with their terms; *provided*, *further* that nothing in this <u>Section 8(e)</u> shall relieve any Party from liability for its bad faith, intentional fraud or any willful or intentional breach of this Agreement occurring prior to the date of termination of this Agreement.
