Recitals 
 WHEREAS,
the Parties are also parties to an Amended and Restated Restructuring Support Agreement, dated May 12, 2016 (the “RSA”). 

WHEREAS, pursuant to the RSA and Section 5.9 of the Plan, the Holders are entitled to appoint a non-voting observer who will be entitled to
attend all meetings of the New Board and shall be consulted with respect to the appointment of any initial, independent members of the New Board. 

WHEREAS, the parties desire to set forth the terms of the Holders’ appointment of such non-voting observer. 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt
and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged by each of the Parties hereto, the Parties hereby agree as follows: 
 Agreement

 Section 1. Board Observation Rights. 

(a) During the period commencing upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement and ending on the Board Rights Termination Date (defined
below), the Holders, collectively, shall have the option and right, exercisable, upon written approval of a majority of the then outstanding common stock of the Company (the “Securities”) held, directly or indirectly, by the Holders
(in the aggregate), by delivering a written notice signed by such Holders to the Company (the “Observer Notice”) appointing a single representative, who shall be reasonably acceptable to the Board (the “Board
Observer”), to attend all meetings (including telephonic) of the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) in an observer capacity. The Observer Notice shall be delivered to the Company prior to the Board
Observer’s attendance at any meeting of the Board. The Board Observer shall not constitute a member of the Board and shall not be entitled to vote on, or consent to, any matters presented to the Board. The attendance or participation of
any Observer at a meeting shall not be required for action by the Board. 
 (b) The Company shall (i) give the Board Observer written notice
of the applicable meeting or action taken by written consent at the same time and in the same manner as 

 
notice is given to the members of the Board, (ii) provide the Board Observer with copies of all written materials and other information (including, without limitation, copies of minutes of
meetings or written consents of the full Board) given to the members of the Board in connection with such meetings or actions taken by written consent at the same time such materials and information are furnished to such members of the Board, and
(iii) provide the Board Observer with all rights to attend (whether in person or by telephone or other means of electronic communication as reasonably requested by the Board Observer) such meetings as a member of the Board. The Board Observer
shall agree to maintain the confidentiality of all information, whether written or oral, and proceedings of the Board and to enter into, comply with, and be bound by, in all respects, the terms and conditions of a confidentiality agreement,
substantially in the form attached hereto as Annex A (the “Confidentiality Agreement”); provided, however, upon request from a Holder or such Holder’s Affiliates, the Board Observer shall provide, on a
confidential basis, such non-public material and information to such Holder and their Affiliates; provided that such Holder and their Affiliates have agreed to comply with and be bound by, in all respects, the Confidentiality
Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the recipient of such confidential information from the Board Observer (whether a Holder or a Holder Affiliate) may further provide such information to (i) any other Holder or Holder Affiliate and (ii) any
legal counsel that has been engaged by such recipient to discuss such matters or information; provided, that any such recipient in clause (i) agrees and acknowledges in writing that they are bound by the provisions of the Confidentiality
Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, “Affiliates” shall mean any affiliate, as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Notwithstanding any rights to be granted or provided to the Board
Observer hereunder, the Company reserves the right to exclude the Board Observer from access to any material or meeting or portion thereof if the Board reasonably determines, in good faith and upon the advice of counsel, that such access would (A)
adversely affect the attorney-client privilege between the Company and its counsel, (B) serve to waive the work product doctrine or any other similarly protective privilege or doctrine or (C) result in a conflict of interest between the Company and
any Holder; provided, however, that (i) such exclusion shall be limited to the portion of the material and/or meeting that is the basis for such exclusion and shall not extend to any portion of the material and/or meeting that does not
involve or pertain to such exclusion and (ii) the Company shall provide written notice, which such written notice may be provided by e-mail, to a Board Observer at any time that the Board Observer is to be excluded from access to any material or
meeting or portion thereof and the basis for such exclusion, which notice will be provided reasonably in advance of such exclusion to the extent practicable, and if such exclusion is based on a conflict of interest with one or more but less than all
Holders then the Company will use good faith efforts to provide such access or information to those Holders (or a single alternative designee thereof) with whom such conflict of interest does not exist. 

(c) The rights contained in this Section 1 shall immediately cease and terminate on the earlier to occur of (such earlier date, the
“Board Rights Termination Date”) (a) the expiration of the New A Warrants, either in accordance with their terms or as a result of the occurrence of a Fundamental Equity Change or Reorganization Event (each as defined in the
New Warrant Agreement), or (b) the date on which the Holders and their respective Affiliates cease to own or control, in the aggregate, at least 5% of the New HoldCo Common Shares or New A Warrants with the right to acquire at least 5% of the New
HoldCo Common Shares. From and after the Board Rights Termination Date, the rights of the Holders in Section 1(a) shall cease. 

  
 -2- 

 Section 2. Reimbursement of Expenses/Coverage. 

(a) The Board Observer shall be reimbursed for his or her reasonable and documented out of pocket expenses incurred in attending each meeting
of the Board attended but shall not be paid any other amounts or compensation in such capacity as a Board Observer, for attendance at a meeting of the Board or otherwise. 

(b) The Company shall make commercially reasonable efforts to include the Board Observer as an insured party under any of its directors and
officers liability insurance policies.

relating to the foregoing shall be brought in any federal or state court of competent jurisdiction located within the State of Delaware, and the Parties hereto hereby irrevocably submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any federal or state court
located within the State of Delaware over any such action. Each of the Parties hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such
dispute brought in such court or any defense of inconvenient forum for the maintenance of such dispute. Each of the Parties hereto agrees that a judgment in any such dispute may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in
any other manner provided by Law. 
 (e) Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY WAIVES, AND AGREES

PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION 

  
 -4- 

 
SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY AND THAT THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OF A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE
CONSENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which made or given. Except where notice is specifically required by this Agreement, no notice to or demand on a Party in any case shall entitle such Party to any other or further notice or
demand in similar or other circumstances. Any investigation by or on behalf of any Party shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver by the Party taking such action of compliance with any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained
herein. 
 (g) Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different Parties
hereto in separate counterparts, each of which counterparts, when so executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original and all of which counterparts, taken together, shall constitute one and the same agreement. 

(h) Binding Effect; Assignment. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective
successors and permitted assigns, but will not be assignable or delegable by any Party hereto without the prior written consent of each of the other Parties; provided, that the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be effective or
binding upon a Holder from and after such time as such Holder no longer beneficially owns any Securities and, upon such Holder ceasing to beneficially own any Securities, the rights of such Holder under this Agreement shall terminate and cease. 

(i) Independent Counsel. Each of the Parties acknowledges that it has been represented by independent counsel of its choice throughout
all negotiations that have preceded the execution of this Agreement and that it has executed the same with consent and upon the advice of said independent counsel. Each Party and its counsel cooperated in the drafting and preparation of this
Agreement and the documents referred to herein, and any and all drafts relating thereto will be deemed the work product of the Parties and may not be construed against any Party by reason of its preparation. Accordingly, any rule of Law or any legal
decision that would require interpretation of any ambiguities in this Agreement against the Party that drafted it is of no application and is hereby expressly waived.

(j) Specific Enforcement. Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that monetary damages would not adequately compensate an injured
Party for the breach of this Agreement by any Party, that this Agreement shall be specifically enforceable and that any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement shall be the proper subject of a temporary or permanent injunction or restraining
order without a requirement of posting bond. Further, each Party hereto waives any claim or defense that there is an adequate remedy at law for such breach or threatened breach. 

  
 -5- 

 (k) Further Assurances. Each of the Parties hereto shall, from time to time and without
further consideration, execute such further instruments and take such other actions as any other Party hereto shall reasonably request in order to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement to effectuate the purposes of this Agreement.

 Attn: 
 Dear Ladies and
Gentlemen: 
 Pursuant to Section 1(b) of that certain Board Representation Agreement (the “Board Representation and Standstill
Agreement”), dated as of [●], 2016, by and among                     , a
                    , the “Company”),
                    , a                     
(“X”),                     , a
                     (“Y”) and
                    , a                     
(“Z” and, together with [X] and [Y], the “Holders”), the Holders have exercised their right to appoint the undersigned as an observer (the “Board Observer”) to the board of directors of the Company
(the “Board”), although the individual serving as the Board Observer may be changed from time to pursuant to the terms of the Board Representation and Standstill Agreement and upon such other individual signing a confidentiality
agreement in substantially the form hereof. The Board Observer acknowledges that at the meetings of the Board and at other times the Board Observer may be provided with and otherwise have access to non-public information concerning the Company
and its Affiliates. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein, shall have the respective meanings ascribed therefor in the Board Representation and Standstill Agreement. In consideration for and as a condition to the Company
furnishing access to such information, the Board Observer hereby agrees to the terms and conditions set forth in this letter agreement (the “Agreement”): 

1. As used in this Agreement, subject to Paragraph 3 below, “Confidential Information” means any and all non-public financial
or other non-public information concerning the Company and its Affiliates that may hereafter be disclosed at or in connection with a meeting of the Board to the Board Observer by the Company, its Affiliates or by any of their directors, officers,
employees, agents, consultants, advisors or other representatives (including financial advisors, accountants or legal counsel) (the “Representatives”) of the Company, including, without limitation, all notices, minutes, consents, or
other information, materials, and ideas provided to the Board Observer, to the extent constituting non-public financial or other non-public information concerning the Company and its Affiliates. 

2. Except to the extent permitted by this Paragraph 2 or by Paragraph 3 or 4, the Board Observer shall keep such Confidential Information
strictly confidential; provided, that the Board Observer may, upon request from a Holder or such Holder’s Affiliates, share Confidential Information with such Holder or such Holder’s Affiliates so long as such individuals or
entities 

  
 A-1 

 
agree to comply with, and be bound by, in all respects, the terms of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the recipient of such Confidential Information from the Board Observer may further
provide such Confidential Information to (i) any other Holder or Holder Affiliate and (ii) any legal counsel that has been engaged by such recipient to discuss such matters or Confidential Information; provided, that any such recipient in clause (i)
above agrees and acknowledges in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. The Board Observer may not record the proceedings of any meeting of the Board by means of an electronic recording device. 

3. The term “Confidential Information” does not include information that (i) is or becomes generally available to the public other
than (a) as a result of a disclosure by the Board Observer in violation of this Agreement or (b) in violation of a confidentiality obligation to the Company known to the Board Observer, (ii) is or becomes available to the Board Observer on a
non-confidential basis from a source not known to have an obligation of confidentiality to the Company, (iii) was already known to the Board Observer at the time of disclosure, or (iv) is independently developed by the Board Observer without
reference to any Confidential Information disclosed to the Board Observer. 
 4. In the event that the Board Observer is legally required or
compelled to disclose the Confidential Information, the Board Observer shall use reasonable efforts, to the extent permitted and practicable, to provide the Company with prompt prior written notice of such requirement so that the Company may seek,
at its sole expense and cost, an appropriate protective order. If in the absence of a protective order, the Board Observer is nonetheless legally required or compelled to disclose Confidential Information, the Board Observer may disclose only
the portion of the Confidential Information or other information that it is so legally required or compelled to disclose. 
 5. All
Confidential Information disclosed by the Company or its Representatives to the Board Observer is and will remain the property of the Company, so long as such information remains Confidential Information.

6. It is understood and acknowledged that neither the Company nor any Representative makes any representation or warranty as to the accuracy
or completeness of the Confidential Information or any component thereof. 
 7. It is further understood and agreed that money damages would
not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement by the Board Observer and that the Company shall be entitled to seek specific performance or any other appropriate form of equitable relief as a remedy for any such breach in addition to
the remedies available to the Company at law. 
 8. This Agreement is personal to the Board Observer, is not assignable by the Board
Observer and may be modified or waived only in writing. This Agreement is binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and inures to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

 9. If any provision of this Agreement is not enforceable in whole or in part, the remaining provisions of this Agreement will not be
affected thereby. No failure or delay in 

  
 A-2 

 
exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder operates as a waiver thereof, nor does any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of
any other right, power or privilege hereunder. 
 10. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF
THE STATE OF DELAWARE, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY CHOICE OR CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISION (WHETHER OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION) THAT WOULD CAUSE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANY JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF
DELAWARE.
 11. This Agreement and all obligations herein will automatically expire one (1) year from the date the Board Observer ceases
to act as Board Observer.
 12. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original
copy of this Agreement, and all of which, when taken together, will constitute one and the same agreement. The exchange of copies of this Agreement and of signature pages by facsimile or electronic transmission constitutes effective execution and
delivery of this Agreement as to the parties and may be used in lieu of the original Agreement. Signatures of the parties transmitted by facsimile or electronic transmission will be deemed to be their original signatures for any purpose whatsoever.

“Debtor” and, collectively, the “Debtors”), and Alan Carr, as trustee (the “Trustee”). 

RECITALS 
 WHEREAS,
on June 7, 2016, each of the Debtors filed a voluntary Chapter 11 petition with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”) (Case No. 16-11409 (LSS)); and 

WHEREAS, on July 14, 2016, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order (Docket No. 192) (the “Confirmation Order”)
confirming the Joint Prepackaged Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization of Seventy Seven Energy Inc. (Docket No. 17) (as amended on July 8, 2016, the “Plan”); and 

WHEREAS, the Effective Date (as defined in the Plan) occurred on August 1, 2016; and 

WHEREAS, the Plan contemplates, on the Effective Date, (a) the creation of a litigation trust (the “Litigation Trust”)
and the creation of the beneficial interests in the Litigation Trust for the benefit of the Litigation Trust’s beneficiaries under the Plan (as defined in Schedule A, the “Beneficiaries”), and (b) that Debtors shall
assign to the Litigation Trust and the Litigation Trust will be vested with, subject to the terms of the Plan, all of the Debtors’ Causes of Action held by any of the Debtors related in any way to the Debtors, their predecessors or their
respective affiliates solely with respect to all claims and Causes of Action against any party based on or arising out of the Spin-Off or the issuance of any Security of the Debtors in connection therewith, including without limitation any claims or
Causes of Action for unlawful dividend, fraudulent conveyance or avoidance claims under state or federal law, including the Bankruptcy Code; provided that any such claims and Causes of Action shall not include, (a) Causes of Action against any of
the Released Parties (b) Causes of Action that arise from or relate to the operational relationship between the Debtors, on the one hand, and Chesapeake Energy Corporation and its affiliates, on the other hand, and (c) Causes of Action for
which the Debtors would be required to indemnify the defendant for any liabilities or losses that such defendant would incur in connection with such a Cause of Action (Causes of Action collectively, excluding the Causes of Action listed in (a),
(b) and (c), the “Contributed Claims”); and 
 WHEREAS, the Plan provides that the Litigation Trust will receive from the
Debtors $50,000 in cash for the purposes of funding the administrative and litigation expenses of the Litigation Trust (the “Initial Funding,” and, together with the Contributed Claims, the “Trust Assets”); and 

 WHEREAS, the Litigation Trust is established hereunder for the purpose of prosecuting, settling
and finally resolving the Contributed Claims and distributing the Trust Property to or for the benefit of the Beneficiaries, in accordance with Treasury Regulations 301.7701-4(d), with no objective or authority to continue or engage in the conduct
of a trade or business; and 
 WHEREAS, the Litigation Trust is intended to qualify as a “liquidating trust” within the meaning of
Treasury Regulations Section 301.7701-4(d) and in compliance with Revenue Procedure 94-45, 1994-2 C.B. 684, and, thus, as a “grantor trust” within the meaning of Section 671 through 679 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
“IRC”) (other than to the extent Trust Assets are allocable to Disputed Claims), with the Beneficiaries to be treated as the grantors of the Litigation Trust and deemed to be the owners of the applicable Trust Assets (subject to the
terms of the Plan and the rights of creditors of the Litigation Trust), and, consequently, the transfer of the Trust Assets to the Litigation Trust shall be treated as a deemed transfer of those assets from the Debtors and the Estates to the
Beneficiaries followed by a deemed transfer by such Beneficiaries to the Litigation Trust for federal income tax purposes (other than to the extent Trust Assets are allocable to Disputed Claims); and 

WHEREAS, any portion of the Trust Assets allocable to Disputed Claims is intended to be treated as a “disputed ownership fund”
within the meaning of section 1.468B-1 et seq. of the Treasury Regulations promulgated under section 468B of the Internal Revenue Code (the “DOF Regulations”). 

NOW, THEREFORE, pursuant to the Plan and the Confirmation Order, in consideration of the mutual agreements of the parties contained herein,
and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged and affirmed, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

Trust Property or the Litigation Trust, and (ii) no creditor of or holder of a claim against or interest in any Debtor (other than the Beneficiaries in their capacities as such) will have any claim against or recourse to the Litigation Trust or
any of the Trust Property. The Trustee on behalf of the Litigation Trust as successor-in-interest to the Debtors’ Estates (for the limited purpose of fulfilling the Trustee’s duties under this Agreement) may execute and deliver any
instruments, documents, books, and records (including those maintained in electronic format and original documents as may be needed), and take, or cause to be taken, all such further action in order to evidence, vest, perfect or effectuate the
transfer of the Trust Assets to the Litigation Trust and consummation of the actions contemplated hereby and by the Plan and the Confirmation Order.

the Confirmation Order. The Litigation Trust will be the successor-in-interest to each of the Debtors with respect to any action that was or could have been commenced by any of the Debtors prior to the Effective Date that is a Contributed Claim
and shall be deemed substituted for the Debtors as the party in any Proceeding with respect to any Contributed Claims pending as of the Effective Date. The Litigation Trust may enforce, sue on, settle or compromise (or decline to do any of the

proceedings, whether in law or in equity, whether known or unknown, that any Debtor or its Estate may hold against any person or entity, that constitute Trust Property, subject to and in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including but not limited to Section 2.2, below. All actions, claims, rights, or interests constituting Trust Property are preserved and retained and may be enforced by the
Trustee on behalf of the Litigation Trust as the representative of each Debtor and its Estate pursuant to section 1123(b)(3)(B) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Trustee will be a party in interest as to all matters over which the Bankruptcy Court

professionals. In addition, the Debtors shall provide the Trustee with access to the employees, agents, advisors, attorneys, accountants and professionals employed, retained or consulted by the Debtors who have knowledge of matters relevant to
the Contributed Claims, including making such parties available to provide deposition, trial or other testimony in connection with the Contributed Claims. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, in the event the Debtors
determine that any such provision of information violates any law or legal proceeding or waives any applicable privilege, protection or immunity, including without limitation the attorney-client privilege or the work-product doctrine, the Debtors
shall take all reasonable measures to provide such information in a manner that avoids any such harm or consequence, including retention of the specific files. 

1.9 Incidents of Ownership. The Beneficiaries shall be the sole beneficiaries of the Trust and the Trust Property, and the

 2.4 Compensation of Trustee and Its Professionals.

(a) The initial Trustee shall be entitled to compensation in connection with the performance of its duties as set forth in
Schedule B hereto, plus the reimbursement from the Trust Proceeds of reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses. Any successor to the Trustee shall also be entitled to reasonable compensation in connection with the
performance of its duties as approved by the Oversight Committee, which compensation may be different from the terms provided in Schedule B, plus the reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses.

(b) Subject to Section 3.3(d), the Trustee may retain the services of employees, professionals, and consultants to
advise and assist in the administration, prosecution and distribution of the Trust Assets. The Trust Property shall be subject to the claims of the Trustee, and the costs and expenses of the Litigation Trust, including but not limited to the
reasonable fees and expenses of the Trustee and its retained professionals, representatives, agents, and employees. The Trustee shall be entitled to reimburse itself out of any available cash in the Litigation Trust for its actual reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses and for any and all losses, liabilities, expenses, or damages that the Trustee may, in good faith and without willful misconduct, gross negligence, or fraud, sustain in the exercise and performance of any of the powers and
duties of the Trustee under this Agreement. The Trustee shall also be entitled to pay from the Trust Property reasonable compensation, plus the reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses, to each of its professionals. 

(c) The Trustee and any employees, professionals or consultants employed or retained by the Trustee that seek compensation or reimbursement of
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses shall provide to the Oversight Committee monthly billing statements (the “Fee Statement”), by printed copy delivered by first-class mail or by portable document format (“PDF”) file
delivered by electronic mail, at the option of each respective professional, which Fee Statement shall include the names and titles of each professional, the hourly rates for each such professional, the amount of hours spent by each professional and
a statement of the fees and expenses for which each such professional seeks reimbursement; provided, however, that solely for any ordinary course professionals employed by the Litigation Trust, the Oversight Committee may, at its sole
discretion, determine not to require copies of Fee Statements to be provided other than to the Trustee. Payment of the amounts requested in a Fee Statement shall be paid no later than thirty (30) days from the date of the Fee Statement;
provided, however, that the Oversight Committee may object to the compensation or reimbursement of expenses contained in the Fee Statement by sending the Trustee or professional, as applicable, a written objection within
fifteen (15) days of the date of delivery to the Oversight Committee of the Fee Statement. If an objection to a portion of the compensation or reimbursement of expenses is received, the Trustee shall promptly pay the undisputed portion of
such compensation or expenses and reserve cash, in the amount of the disputed compensation or out-of-pocket expenses. 

  
 9 

 (d) In the event that the parties are unable to reach an agreement to resolve the Oversight
Committee’s objection to a Fee Statement within five (5) days from the date on which such objection to the Fee Statement is received, the Trustee shall schedule a hearing with the Bankruptcy Court or other court of competent jurisdiction
to take place within fourteen (14) days, or as soon as such court’s calendar permits. The Oversight Committee shall file a written objection with the Bankruptcy Court or other court of competent jurisdiction, as applicable, no later
than seven (7) days prior to the scheduled hearing. Any response to the Oversight Committee’s objection must be submitted no later than three (3) days prior to the scheduled hearing. All objections to a Fee Statement shall
be resolved either by (i) a written agreement between the party requesting payment of fees and expenses and the Oversight Committee, or (ii) by resolution of the disputed amount by the Bankruptcy Court or other court of competent
jurisdiction. The Trustee shall promptly pay any amounts determined to be owing following the resolution described in the preceding sentence. 

(e) If the cash in the Litigation Trust shall be insufficient to compensate and reimburse the Trustee or any employees, professionals or
consultants retained by the Trustee for any amounts to which they are entitled hereunder, then the Trustee is hereby authorized, with the written approval of the Oversight Committee, to reduce to cash that portion of the Trust Property necessary so
as to effect such compensation and reimbursement. 
 2.5 Reporting Duties of the Trustee.

(a) From time to time as reasonably requested by the Oversight Committee, the Trustee shall report in writing to the Oversight Committee as to
the status of the Contributed Claims and all other matters that materially affect the Litigation Trust or the Trust Property. In addition, Trustee shall communicate with members of the Oversight Committee and with the Beneficiaries regarding all
matters that may materially affect the Litigation Trust or the Trust Property. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Trustee shall not provide or disclose any information that the Trustee reasonably believes is
privileged or otherwise protected from discovery without first ensuring that the inclusion of that information will not waive any such privilege or protection. 

(b) The Trustee shall comply with tax reporting responsibilities, as further provided in Article VIII below. 

2.6 Investments and Bonds. Subject to Section 2.3, the Trustee may invest the Trust Assets in
Permitted Investments, subject to any applicable limitations under Bankruptcy Code Section 345; provided, however, that the Trustee is not authorized to engage in any investments inconsistent with the treatment of the Litigation
Trust as a liquidating trust under applicable Internal Revenue Service guidelines, rulings, or other controlling authorities. 
 2.7
Replacement of the Trustee. The Trustee may resign at any time upon thirty (30) days’ written notice delivered to the Bankruptcy Court and the members of the Oversight Committee, provided that such resignation shall only become
effective upon the appointment of a permanent or interim successor Trustee. The Oversight Committee may 

  
 10 

 
remove the Trustee with or without cause upon thirty (30) days’ written notice delivered to the Trustee. The Trustee may be removed by the Bankruptcy Court upon motion and after
notice and a hearing, which motion may be brought by any party in interest (including any members of the Oversight Committee). In the event of the death, medical incapacity, dissolution, resignation or removal of the Trustee, the Oversight
Committee may designate a person to serve as successor Trustee. If the Oversight Committee shall fail to appoint a successor within thirty (30) days, the successor Trustee shall be appointed by the Bankruptcy Court upon request and based
upon submissions from interested parties (including the Oversight Committee, any Beneficiary or counsel to the Litigation Trust). Upon its appointment, the successor Trustee, without any further act, shall become fully vested with all of the
rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor and all responsibilities of the predecessor Trustee relating to the Litigation Trust shall be terminated; provided, however, that the original Trustee’s right to
indemnification shall survive termination and is subject to Sections 4.2 and 4.3 hereof. In the event the Trustee’s appointment terminates for any reason, such Trustee (or his estate or representatives)
shall be promptly compensated for all reasonable fees and expenses accrued through the effective date of termination, whether or not previously invoiced. The provisions of Article IV shall survive the resignation or
removal of any Trustee. 
 2.8 Litigation Trust Continuance. The death, medical incapacity, dissolution, resignation, or
removal of the Trustee shall not terminate the Litigation Trust or revoke any existing agency created by the Trustee pursuant to this Agreement or invalidate any action theretofore taken by the Trustee, and the successor Trustee agrees that the
provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successor Trustee and all its successors or assigns.

5.1 Register of Beneficiaries. Debtors, on behalf of the Litigation Trust, shall maintain at all times a register of or
other means of identifying the names, mailing addresses, taxpayer identification numbers, amounts of Allowed Claims, and the Pro Rata interests in the Litigation Trust of the Beneficiaries (the “Register”). The Debtors shall
make such Register available to the Trustee as from time to time requested by the Trustee. 

  
 15 

 5.2 Books and Records. To the extent requested by the Oversight Committee, the
Litigation Trust also shall maintain in respect of the Litigation Trust books and records relating to the Trust Assets and income realized therefrom and the payment of expenses of and claims against or assumed by the Litigation Trust in such detail
and for such period of time as may be necessary to enable it to make full and proper reports in respect thereof. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, the Plan, or the Confirmation Order, or as may be required by applicable law
(including securities law), nothing in this Agreement is intended to require the Litigation Trust to file any accounting or seek approval of any court with respect to the administration of the Litigation Trust, or as a condition for making any
payment or distribution out of the Trust Assets. The Oversight Committee shall have the right to inspect the books and records of the Litigation Trust at any time upon reasonable notice to the Trustee. Beneficiaries shall have the right
upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice delivered to the Trustee to inspect the Litigation Trust’s books and records, including the Register, provided such Beneficiary shall have entered into a confidentiality agreement in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee. Satisfaction of the foregoing condition notwithstanding, if (a) the Trustee and the Oversight Committee determine in good faith that the inspection of the Litigation Trust’s books and
records, including the Register, by any Beneficiary would be detrimental to the Litigation Trust or (b) such Beneficiary is a defendant (or potential defendant) in a pending (or potential) action brought by the Litigation Trust, the Litigation
Trust may deny such request for inspection. The Bankruptcy Court shall resolve any dispute between any Beneficiary and the Trustee under this Section 5.2. 

5.3 Periodic Reporting Obligations to Bankruptcy Court. The Trustee may file with the Bankruptcy Court on a periodic basis
a report setting forth the amounts and dates of all distributions made by the Trustee under the Plan through each applicable reporting period. 

5.4 Reports to Holders of Litigation Trust Interests.

(a) Securities Laws. If the Litigation Trust Interests constitute “securities” under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the “Securities Act”), the issuance and distributions (and to the extent constituting an offer and sale, the offer and sale) of Litigation Trust Interests under the Plan shall be exempt pursuant to section 1145 of the
Bankruptcy Code from registration under the Securities Act and applicable state and local laws requiring registration of securities. If the Trustee determines, with the advice of counsel, that the Litigation Trust is required to comply with any
of the registration, reporting, or other requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, then the Trustee shall take any and all actions necessary to comply with such requirements
or may seek exemption from the Securities and Exchange Commission therefor, and, if granted, shall comply with the terms of any such exemption. 

(b) Other Reporting. At the request of the Oversight Committee, as soon as practicable after the end of each calendar year and as
soon as practicable upon termination of the Litigation Trust, the Trustee shall provide to the members of the Oversight Committee and to each Beneficiary as of the end of such period or such date of termination a written report

  
 16 

 
including financial statements of the Litigation Trust for such period, prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and, if the end of a calendar year, a report
(which may be prepared by an independent certified public accountant employed by the Trustee) reflecting the result of such agreed upon procedures relating to the financial accounting administration of the Litigation Trust as considered by the
Trustee in its discretion, to be appropriate under the circumstances. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Trustee shall not provide or disclose any information that it reasonably believes is privileged or otherwise
protected from discovery without first ensuring that inclusion of that information will not waive any such privilege or protection. Subject to the foregoing sentence, the Trustee may post any such report on a limited-access web site maintained
by the Trustee and available to the Beneficiaries. To the extent specifically authorized by a Beneficiary, the posting of any such report may be in lieu of providing a copy to the Beneficiary (unless otherwise required by law). 

5.5 Final Accounting of Trustee. The Trustee (or any such successor Trustee) shall within ninety (90) days after the
termination of the Litigation Trust or the death, dissolution, resignation, or removal of the Trustee, render an accounting containing at least the following information: 

(a) A description of the Trust Assets; 

(b) A summarized accounting in sufficient detail of all gains, losses, receipts, disbursements, and other transactions in connection with the
Litigation Trust and the Trust Assets during the Trustee’s term of service, including their source and nature; 
 (c) Separate entries
for all receipts of principal and income; 
 (d) The ending balance of all Trust Assets as of the date of the accounting, including the Cash
balance on hand and the name(s) and location(s) of the depository or depositories where the Cash is kept; 
 (e) All known liabilities of
the Litigation Trust; and 
 (f) All pending actions. 

5.6 Filing of Accounting. The accounting shall be filed with the Bankruptcy Court and all Beneficiaries shall have notice
that the final accounting has been filed and an opportunity to have a hearing on the approval of the accounting and, to the extent applicable, the discharge of the Trustee. 

5.7 Costs and Expenses of the Trustee. Notwithstanding any other terms of this Agreement, the Trustee shall not be required
to incur any costs and expenses in connection with the Trustee’s performance of any obligations under this Agreement unless the payment of such costs and expenses has been made or provided for by one or more of the Beneficiaries or the Debtors
to the extent the Trust Proceeds then available are not sufficient to cover such costs and expenses; provided further that no Beneficiary or Debtor is under any obligation to make or provide for payment of any such costs or expenses and the Trustee
shall not be required or obligated to undertake any action or perform any obligation under this Agreement that would require the incurrence of any such cost or expenses to the extent the provision for payment therefor in accordance with the
foregoing has not occurred. 

  
 17 

 ARTICLE VI 

BENEFICIAL INTERESTS AND BENEFICIARIES 

6.1 Trust Beneficial Interests. Each Beneficiary shall be a holder of an interest in the Litigation Trust
(“Litigation Trust Interests”) in proportion to its right to distributions from the Litigation Trust under Article VII. The Litigation Trust Interests will be uncertificated; accordingly, distributions
of Litigation Trust Interests will be accomplished solely by the entry of the names of the holders and their respective Litigation Trust Interests in the books and records of the Litigation Trust. Each holder of a Litigation Trust Interest
shall take and hold its uncertificated beneficial interest subject to all of the terms and provisions of this Trust Agreement and the Confirmation Order. Beneficiaries shall be entitled to receive distributions on account of their Litigation
Trust Interest as set forth in Article VII. 
 6.2 Interest Beneficial Only. The ownership of a
Litigation Trust Interest shall not entitle any Beneficiary to any title in or to the Trust Assets or to any right to call for a partition or division of the Trust Assets or to require an accounting. 

6.3 Evidence of Litigation Trust Interest. Ownership of a Litigation Trust Interest shall not be evidenced by any
certificate, security, or receipt or in any other form or manner whatsoever, except as maintained on the Register. Except as otherwise required by law, references in this Agreement to the identification of holders and the providing of
information to holders shall be read to mean holders of record as set forth in the Register and shall not mean any beneficial owner not recorded on such Register. Unless expressly provided herein, the Trustee may establish a record date, which
it deems practicable for determining the holders for a particular purpose. The distribution of Litigation Trust Interests to the holders of Litigation Trust Interests shall be accomplished as set forth herein. 

6.4 Transfers of Litigation Trust Interests. The issuance and distributions (and to the extent constituting an offer and
sale, the offer and sale) of the Litigation Trust Interests pursuant to the Plan have not been registered under to the Securities Act or any state securities law. If the Litigation Trust Interests constitute “securities,” the parties
hereto intend that the exemption provisions of section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code shall apply to the issuance and distributions (and to the extent constituting an offer and sale, the offer and sale) of the Litigation Trust Interests pursuant
to the Plan. The Litigation Trust Interests shall not be capable of being transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated, in whole or in part. Any purported transfer, assignment, pledge or hypothecation of a Litigation Trust Interest or
any part thereof shall constitute a violation of this Section 6.4 and shall be void ab initio. Beneficial interests in the Litigation Trust shall be nontransferable except upon death of the interest Holder or by
operation of law; provided, however, for the avoidance of doubt, that a Beneficiary may abandon its interest back to the Litigation Trust. 

6.5 Absolute Owners. The Trustee may deem and treat the Beneficiary reflected as the owner of Litigation Trust Interest on
the Register as the absolute owner thereof for the purposes of receiving distributions and payments on account thereof for federal and state income tax purposes and for all other purposes whatsoever. 

  
 18 

 6.6 Change of Address. A Beneficiary may, after the Effective Date, select an
alternative mailing address by notifying the Litigation Trust in writing of such alternative address. Absent such notice, the Trustee shall not recognize any such change of address. Such notification shall be effective only upon receipt by
the Trustee. 
 6.7 Effect of Death, Dissolution, Incapacity or Bankruptcy of Beneficiary. The death, dissolution,
incapacity, or bankruptcy of a Beneficiary during the term of the Litigation Trust shall not operate to terminate the Litigation Trust during the term of the Litigation Trust nor shall it entitle the representative or creditors of the deceased,
dissolved, incapacitated, or bankrupt Beneficiary to an accounting or to take any action in any court or elsewhere for the distribution of the Trust Assets or for a partition thereof, nor shall it otherwise affect the rights and obligations of the
Beneficiary under this Agreement or in the Litigation Trust. 
 6.8 Standing. Except as expressly provided in this
Agreement or the Confirmation Order, a Beneficiary does not have standing to direct the Trustee to do or not to do any act or to institute any action or proceeding at law or in equity against any party (other than against the Trustee to the extent
provided in this Agreement) with respect to the Trust Assets. 
 ARTICLE VII 

DISTRIBUTIONS 
 7.1
Distributions to Beneficiaries from Trust Assets.
 (a) All payments to be made by the Litigation Trust to any Beneficiary shall be
made only in accordance with this Agreement and the Plan. 
 (b) On any date determined by the Trustee with the approval of the Oversight
Committee, or on any date directed by the Oversight Committee, and in any event promptly upon receipt of any payment or distribution received in connection with any judgment or settlement of a Contributed Claim in an amount in excess of $1,000,000
and at least once in every twelve (12) month period (as measured from the Effective Date or the prior distribution date, as applicable), the Trustee shall distribute from the Litigation Trust the Trust Property Then Available For Distribution to the
holders of the Litigation Trust Interests entitled thereto, as described in this Section 7.1(b). 
 (i) HoldCo
Litigation Proceeds. Subject to Section 9.3, the Trustee shall distribute to each HoldCo Litigation Trust Beneficiary its Pro Rata share of the HoldCo Trust Property Then Available For Distribution. 

(ii) OpCo Litigation Proceeds. Subject to Section 9.3, the Trustee shall distribute to each OpCo Litigation Trust
Beneficiary its Pro Rata share of the OpCo Trust Property Then Available For Distribution. 
 (c) Prior to making any distribution, the
Trustee shall, in consultation with and subject to the approval of the Oversight Committee, determine such amounts (the “Expense Reserve”) that are (i) reasonably necessary to meet liabilities (whether fixed or contingent),
(ii) necessary to pay reasonable expenses (including, but not limited to, any fees to professionals retained by the Litigation Trust or taxes imposed on the Litigation Trust or in respect of the Trust

  
 19 

 
Property), and (iii) necessary to satisfy other reasonable liabilities reasonably incurred by the Litigation Trust (including the fees and expenses payable to the Trustee) in accordance with
this Agreement and the Plan. Liabilities and expenses attributable to Causes of Action contributed to the Litigation Trust by HoldCo shall be included in the HoldCo Expense Reserve and liabilities and expenses attributable to Causes of Action
contributed to the Litigation Trust by OpCo shall be included in the OpCo Expense Reserve, and liabilities and expenses that are attributable to Causes of Action contributed to the Litigation Trust by HoldCo and Causes of Action contributed to the
Litigation Trust by OpCo or that are not attributable to any specific Cause of Action shall be allocated among the HoldCo Expense Reserve and the OpCo Expense reserve as determined by the Trustee in the Trustee’s good faith discretion based on
the Litigation Trust’s cash on hand and the Trustees good faith estimate of the relative value of the Contributed Claims then held by the Litigation Trust (and the Trustee may from time to time true-up any the HoldCo expense reserve and OpCo
expense reserve to achieve the foregoing allocation., taking into account, for purposes of the foregoing, the availability, where applicable, of cash already on hand or scheduled to be received to satisfy such liabilities or expenses. 

(d) All distributions made by the Trustee shall be payable to the holders of the Litigation Trust Interests entitled thereto as reflected on
the Register. If the distribution shall be in cash, the Trustee shall distribute such cash by wire, check, or such other form as the Trustee deems appropriate under the circumstances. 

7.2 Distributions; Notice of Withholding. All distributions under this Agreement shall be made by the Trustee. The
Trustee may withhold from amounts distributable or otherwise allocable to any Beneficiary any and all amounts, determined in the Trustee’s sole discretion, to be required by any law, regulation, rule, ruling, directive, or other governmental
requirement, and as further provided in Section 8.3. All such amounts withheld shall be treated as amounts distributed to such Beneficiary for all purposes of the Plan. Prior to the making of any distributions contemplated hereunder to
any class of Beneficiaries, the Trustee shall provide the Oversight Committee with three (3) business days’ written notice of any such distribution, which notice shall include a summary of the aggregate amounts to be distributed to each
class of Beneficiaries. Within two (2) business days of receipt of the notice of distribution, any Member of the Oversight Committee may request additional information regarding the calculation of the aggregate distribution amounts for
such class of Beneficiaries. 
 ARTICLE VIII 

TAXES 
 8.1
Income Tax Status. Consistent with Revenue Procedure 94-45, 1994-28 I.R.B. 124, the Litigation Trust shall be treated, and the Trustee shall use his best efforts to operate and maintain the Litigation Trust, as a liquidating trust
pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 301.7701-4(d) and as a grantor trust pursuant to IRC Sections 671-677. Accordingly, the Beneficiaries shall be treated, for federal income tax purposes, (i) as direct recipients of an
undivided interest in the Trust Assets (other than to the extent such Trust Assets are allocable to Disputed Claims or as is otherwise set forth in the Plan) and as having immediately contributed such Trust Assets to the Litigation Trust, and
(ii) thereafter, as the grantors and the deemed owners of the Litigation Trust and, thus, the direct owners of an undivided interest in the Trust Assets (other than the Trust Assets as are allocable to Disputed Claims or as is otherwise set
forth in the Plan).

  
 20 

 8.2 Valuations. As soon as possible after the Effective Date, the Trustee, in
consultation with any financial advisors it deems appropriate, shall make a good faith valuation of the Trust Assets, and such valuation shall be used consistently by all parties (including, without limitation, the Litigation Trust and the
Beneficiaries) for all federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, the Trustee shall, as relevant from time to time, make such values available to the parties. The Litigation Trust also shall file (or cause to be filed) any other statements,
returns, or disclosures relating to the Litigation Trust that are required by any governmental unit. 
 8.3 Tax Returns;
Withholding of Taxes and Reporting Related to Litigation Trust Operations.
 (a) In accordance with IRC Section 6012 and Treasury
Regulation Section 1.671-4(a), the Litigation Trust shall file with the IRS annual tax returns on Form 1041. In addition, the Litigation Trust shall file in a timely manner such other tax returns, including any state and local tax
returns, as are required by applicable law and pay any taxes shown as due thereon. Such returns shall be consistent with the treatment of the Litigation Trust as a liquidating trust within the meaning of Treasury Regulations
Section 301.7701-4(d) that is a grantor trust pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.671-1(a), other than with respect to any Disputed Claims reserve, which shall be consistent with the treatment of such Disputed Claims reserve as a
“disputed ownership fund” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.468B-(9)(b)(1) as provided in Section 8.5, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, report consistently the foregoing for state and local
income tax purposes. Within a reasonable time following the end of the taxable year, the Litigation Trust shall send to each Beneficiary a separate statement setting forth the Beneficiary’s share of items of income, gain, loss, deduction
or credit and will instruct each such Beneficiary to report such items on their federal income tax returns.
 (b) Allocations of Litigation
Trust taxable income among the Beneficiaries of the Litigation Trust (other than taxable income allocable to any Disputed Claims reserve) shall be determined by reference to the manner in which an amount of cash representing such taxable income
would be distributed (were such cash permitted to be distributed at such time) if, immediately prior to such deemed distribution, the Litigation Trust had distributed all its assets (valued at their tax book value, and other than assets allocable to
any Disputed Claims reserve) to the holders of the Litigation Trust interests, adjusted for prior taxable income and loss and taking into account all prior and concurrent distributions from the Litigation Trust. Similarly, taxable loss of the
Litigation Trust shall be allocated by reference to the manner in which an economic loss would be borne immediately after a hypothetical liquidating distribution of the remaining Trust Property. The tax book value of the Trust Property for the
purposes of this section 8.2(b) shall equal their fair market value on the Effective Date, adjusted in accordance with tax accounting principles prescribed by the IRC, applicable Treasury Regulations, and other applicable administrative and judicial
authorities and pronouncements. 
 (c) In connection with the Plan and all distributions thereunder, the Trustee shall, to the extent
applicable, comply with all tax withholding and reporting requirements 

  
 21 

 
imposed by any federal, state, provincial, local, or foreign taxing authority, and all distributions thereunder shall be subject to any such withholding and reporting requirements. The
Trustee is authorized by the Plan to take any and all actions that may be necessary or appropriate to comply with such withholding and reporting requirements. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, (a) each holder of an Allowed
Claim that is to receive a distribution pursuant to the Plan has sole and exclusive responsibility for the satisfaction and payment of any tax obligations imposed by any Governmental Unit, including income, withholding, and other tax obligations, on
account of such distribution, and (b) no distribution shall be made to or on behalf of such holder pursuant to the Plan unless and until such holder has made arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the payment and satisfaction of such
withholding tax obligations. Any property to be distributed pursuant to the Plan, pending the implementation of such arrangements, shall be treated as an undeliverable distribution to be held by the Trustee until such time as the Trustee is
satisfied with the holder’s arrangements for any withholding tax obligations. The Trustee may require any Beneficiary to furnish to the Trustee its social security number or employer or taxpayer identification number as assigned by the
IRS, and the Trustee may condition any distribution to any Beneficiary upon the receipt of such identification number(s) or other information the Trustee reasonably determines to be necessary in connection with the withholding of taxes. 

8.4 Treatment of Disputed Claims Reserve. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary,
subject to definitive guidance from the IRS or a court of competent jurisdiction to the contrary, the Trustee shall (i) treat any Trust Assets allocable to, or retained on account of, the Disputed Claims as held by one or more discrete trusts
for federal income tax purposes, consisting of separate and independent shares to be established in respect of each Disputed Claim, in accordance with the trust provisions of the IRC (sections 641 et seq.) or (ii) elect to treat such Trust
Assets as a “disputed ownership fund” governed by Treasury Regulation Section 1.468B-9. All parties shall report, for income tax purposes, consistent with the foregoing. In the event, and to the extent, any Cash retained on
account of a Disputed Claim in any Disputed Claims reserve is insufficient to pay the portion of any such taxes attributable to the taxable income arising from the assets allocable to, or retained on account of, such Disputed Claim, such taxes shall
be (a) reimbursed from any subsequent Cash amounts retained on account of such Disputed Claim, or (b) to the extent such Disputed Claim has subsequently been resolved, deducted from any amounts distributable by the Trustee as a result of
the resolution of such Disputed Claim. 
 8.5 Expedited Determination of Taxes. The Litigation Trust may request an
expedited determination of taxes of the Debtors and of the Litigation Trust, including any Disputed Claims reserve, under Bankruptcy Code section 505 for all returns filed for, or on behalf of, the Debtors and the Litigation Trust for all
taxable periods through the termination of the Litigation Trust. 
 ARTICLE IX 

TERMINATION OF LITIGATION TRUST 

9.1 Termination of Litigation Trust. The Trustee shall be discharged and the Litigation Trust shall be terminated, at such
time as (i) all of the Trust Assets have been liquidated, (ii) all duties and obligations of the Trustee hereunder have been fulfilled, and (iii) all 

  
 22 

 
distributions required to be made by the Trustee under the Plan and this Agreement have been made; provided, however, that in no event shall the Litigation Trust be terminated later
than the term of the Litigation Trust under Section 9.2 of this Agreement, as such term may be extended pursuant to Section 9.2. 

9.2 Maximum Term. The term of the Litigation Trust shall end no later than the third (3rd) anniversary of the
Effective Date (the “Initial Litigation Trust Term”); provided, however, that on or prior to such termination, the Bankruptcy Court, upon motion by Trustee or a party in interest, may within the six-month period prior
to the third (3rd) anniversary (or within the six-month period prior to the end of any extension period), extend the term of the Litigation Trust for a fixed period if it is necessary to facilitate or complete the liquidation and distribution of the
Trust Assets, provided, however, that the aggregate of all such extensions shall not exceed three (3) years, unless the Trustee receives a favorable ruling from the IRS that any further extension would not adversely affect the status
of the Litigation trust as a grantor trust for federal income tax purposes. The Trustee will not unduly prolong the duration of the Litigation Trust and will at all times endeavor to resolve, settle or otherwise dispose of all Trust Assets, to
effect distributions to Beneficiaries in accordance with the terms hereof, the Plan and Confirmation Order and to terminate the Litigation Trust as soon as practicable in a prompt and timely fashion. In the event that the Trustee elects to
terminate the Litigation Trust, he shall provide twenty (20) day notice thereof to the Office of the United States Trustee, the Reorganized Debtors, and the Oversight Committee, and file such notice with the Bankruptcy Court and upon such
termination, the Trustee shall cease to act as the Trustee and the Oversight Committee shall be disbanded such that neither the Trustee nor the members of the Oversight Committee shall have any further duties or responsibilities under the Agreement
or otherwise.
 9.3 Events Upon End of Term Termination. At the conclusion of the term of the Litigation Trust, (a) the
Trustee shall distribute any remaining Trust Proceeds, if any, to the Beneficiaries, in accordance with Article VII; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be obligated to make distributions if the amount of the available
cash is de minimis and is not sufficient to warrant the incurrence of the cost of making such distribution and (b) any remaining Trust Assets (other than Trust Proceeds) shall revert to and vest in the Reorganized Debtor (or its successor)
that contributed the applicable Trust Asset. 
 9.4 Winding Up and Discharge of the Trustee. For the purposes of winding
up the affairs of the Litigation Trust at the conclusion of its term, the Trustee shall continue to act as Trustee until its duties under this Agreement have been fully discharged or its role as Trustee is otherwise terminated under this Agreement
and the Plan. Upon a motion by the Trustee, the Bankruptcy Court may enter an order relieving the Trustee, its agents, and employees of any further duties, discharging the Trustee and releasing its bond, if any.

ARTICLE X 
 MISCELLANEOUS
PROVISIONS 
 10.1 Amendments. The Trustee may, with the approval of the Oversight Committee, modify, supplement, or
amend this Agreement but only to clarify any ambiguity or inconsistency, or render the Agreement in compliance with its stated tax purposes, and only if such amendment does not materially and adversely affect the interests, rights, treatment, or

  
 23 

 
distributions of any Beneficiaries. The Trustee may, with the approval of a majority of the Members of the Oversight Committee, modify, supplement, or amend this Agreement in any way that is
not inconsistent with the Plan or the Confirmation Order. In the event that a majority of the Members of the Oversight Committee are unable to reach a consensus regarding a proposed modification, supplement, or amendment, the Trustee may seek
Bankruptcy Court approval of any such modification, supplement, or amendment. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 10.1 to the contrary, any amendments to this Agreement shall not be inconsistent with the purpose
and intention of the Litigation Trust to liquidate in an expeditious but orderly manner the Trust Assets in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 301.7701-4(d) and this Agreement. 

10.2 Waiver. No failure by the Litigation Trust, the Trustee, or the Oversight Committee to exercise or delay in exercising

10.3 Cumulative Rights and Remedies. The rights and remedies provided in this Agreement are cumulative and are not
exclusive of any rights under law or in equity. 
 10.4 No Bond Required. Notwithstanding any state law to the contrary,

Irrevocability. This Agreement and the Litigation Trust created hereunder shall be irrevocable, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement. 

10.6 Relationship to the Plan. The principal purpose of this Agreement is to aid in the implementation of the Plan and,

Order, the provisions of the Plan or the Confirmation Order, as applicable, shall control. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Litigation Trust, the Oversight Committee, and the Members shall be bound by the terms of
the Plan and, accordingly, shall not commence any proceeding with respect to any Cause of Action released, enjoined, and/or exculpated pursuant to the Plan.

to the laws of the State of Delaware; provided, however, that, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, there shall not be applicable to the Litigation Trust, the Trustee, the Oversight Committee or its Members, or this
Agreement any provisions of the laws (statutory or common) of the State of Delaware pertaining to trusts which relate to or regulate: (i) the filing with any 

  
 24 

 
court or governmental body or agency of trustee accounts or schedules of trustee fees and charges; (ii) affirmative requirements to post bonds for trustees, officers, agents, or employees of

including, without limitation, jurisdiction to resolve any and all controversies, suits, and issues that may arise in connection therewith, including, without limitation, this Agreement, or any entity’s obligations incurred in connection
herewith, including without limitation, any action against the Trustee or any Member of the Oversight Committee or any professional retained by the Trustee or the Oversight Committee, in each case in its capacity as such. Each party to this

or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and such provision of this Agreement shall be valid and enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. 

10.11 Limitation of Benefits. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, the Plan, or the Confirmation
