     The Plan and all matters to which reference is made herein shall be

1.4  Shares Reserved

     (a)  All shares of the Corporation issued under the Plan shall be Common
          Shares in the capital stock of the Corporation. Options may be granted
          in respect of authorized and unissued Common Shares.

<PAGE>

          The maximum number of Common Shares ("Specified Maximum") which may be
          reserved for issuance under the Plan shall be 13,500,000 Common
          Shares. The Specified Maximum is subject to adjustment in accordance
          with the provisions of the Plan.

          The aggregate number of Common Shares reserved for issuance to any one
          person under the Plan shall not exceed 5% of the outstanding Common
          Shares (on a non-diluted basis) less the aggregate number of Common
          Shares reserved for issuance to such person under any other security
          based compensation arrangement (as defined under the applicable rules
          of the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX Rules")) of the Corporation.
          The number of Common Shares issuable to insiders as defined in the TSX
          Rules, at any time, under the Plan and all security based compensation
          arrangements of the Corporation cannot exceed 10% of issued and
          outstanding Common Shares. The number of Common Shares issued to
          insiders, within any one year period, under the Plan and all security
          based compensation arrangements of Brookfield Properties cannot exceed
          10% of issued and outstanding Common Shares.

          Any Common Shares subject to an Option which has been granted under
          the Plan, which for any reason is cancelled or terminated without
          having been exercised, shall again be available for grants under the
          Plan. No fractional shares shall be issued, and the Board may
          determine the manner in which fractional share value shall be treated.

     (b)  In the event of any change in the outstanding Common Shares by reason
          of any stock dividend or split, recapitalization, merger,
          consolidation, combination or exchange of shares, or other corporate
          change, or in the event of any issue of rights pursuant to a
          shareholder rights plan or other similar plan the Board shall make,
          subject to the prior approval of the relevant stock exchanges as
          necessary, appropriate substitution or adjustment in (i) the number or
          kind of shares or other securities reserved for issuance pursuant to
          the Plan; and (ii) the number and kind of shares subject to
          unexercised Options theretofore granted and in the Exercise Price of
          such Options; provided, however, that no substitution or adjustment
          shall obligate the Corporation to issue or sell fractional shares. In
          the event of the reorganization of the Corporation or the
          amalgamation, merger or consolidation of the Corporation with another
          corporation, or the payment of a special or extraordinary dividend,
          the Board may make such provision for the protection of the rights of
          Participants as the Board in its discretion deems appropriate.

     (c)  In the event of a Change of Control or a potential Change of Control,
          the Board has the power to: (i) accelerate the vesting of Options in
          full or in part; (ii) make such changes to the terms of the Options at
          it considers fair and appropriate in the circumstances, including but
          not limited to: (iii) otherwise modifying the terms of the Options to
          assist the Participants to tender into a take-over bid or other
          arrangement leading to a Change of Control, and thereafter; (iv)
          terminating, conditionally or otherwise, the Options not exercised
          following successful completion of such. If the Change of Control or
          potential Change of Control is not completed within the time specified
          therein (as the same may be extended), the Options which vested
          pursuant to this Section shall be returned by the Participant to the
          Corporation and, if exercised, shall be reinstated as authorized but
          unissued Common Shares and the original terms applicable to such
          Options shall be reinstated.

1.5  Non-Exclusivity

<PAGE>

     Nothing contained herein shall prevent the Board from adopting other or
     additional compensation arrangements, subject to any required approval.

1.6  Amendment and Termination

     The Board may amend, suspend or terminate the Plan, or any portion thereof,
     at any time, subject to those provisions of applicable law (including,
     without limitation, the applicable rules, regulations and policies of any
     exchange, if any) that require the approval of shareholders or any
     governmental or regulatory body. The Board may make amendments to the Plan
     or to any Option outstanding thereunder without seeking shareholder
     approval, except for the following types of amendments:

          (i)  increasing the number of Common Shares reserved for issuance
               under the Plan;

          (ii) reducing the exercise price of an Option, except in connection
               with a stock dividend or split, recapitalization, merger,
               consolidation, combination or exchange of shares or other
               corporate change or a shareholder rights or similar plan pursuant
               to section 1.4(b), where such reduction does not include the
               cancellation or termination of an Option prior to its expiry date
               for the purpose of reissuing options to the same Participant with
               a lower exercise price;

          (iii) extending the term of an Option beyond its original expiry date
               or beyond 10 years from its grant date, except the automatic
               extension of an Option the expiry date of which would have fallen
               within a Blackout Period pursuant to Section 2.3(h);

          (iv) extending eligibility to participate in the Plan to non-employee
               directors;

          (v)  permitting Options to be transferred other than by testate or
               intestate succession;

          (vi) permitting the addition or modification of a cashless exercise
               feature, payable in cash or Common Shares, unless it provides for
               a full deduction of the number of underlying Common Shares from
               the Plan reserve; or

          (vii) permitting awards, other than Options, to be made under the
               Plan.

          Except as expressly set forth in the Plan, no action of the Board
          shall alter or impair the rights of a Participant under any Option
          previously granted to the Participant without the consent of the
          affected Participant.

1.7  Compliance with Legislation

     The Board may postpone any exercise of any Option or the issue of any
     Underlying Shares pursuant to the Plan for such time as the Board in its
     discretion may deem necessary in order to permit the Corporation to effect
     or maintain registration of the Plan or the Common Shares issuable pursuant
     thereto under the securities laws of any applicable jurisdiction, or to
     determine that such shares and the Plan are exempt from such registration.
     The Corporation shall not be obligated by any provision of the Plan or
     grant thereunder to sell or issue Common Shares in violation of the law of
     any government having jurisdiction therein. In addition, the Corporation
     shall have no obligation to issue any Common Shares pursuant to the Plan
     unless such Common Shares shall have been duly listed, upon official notice
     of issuance, with a stock exchange on which such Common Shares are listed
     for trading.

SECTION 2: OPTIONS

2.1  Grants

     Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Board shall have the authority
     to determine the limitations, restrictions and conditions, if any, in
     addition to those set forth in Section 2.3 hereof, applicable to the
     exercise of an Option, including, without limitation, the nature and
     duration of the restrictions, if any, to be imposed upon the sale or other
     disposition of the Underlying Shares, and the nature of the events, if any,
     and the duration of the period in which any Participant's rights in respect
     of the Underlying Shares may be forfeited. An Eligible Person may receive
     Options on more than one occasion under the Plan and may receive separate
     Options on any one occasion.

2.2  Option Exercise Price

     The Board shall establish the exercise price ("Exercise Price") of each
     Option at the time such Option is granted, which shall be not less than the
     closing price of a Common Share on the TSX, for Canadian Participants, or
     the New York Stock Exchange, for U.S. Participants, on the last trading day
     preceding the date of grant of such Option, and shall, in all cases, be not
     less than such amount required by applicable regulatory authorities from
     time to time.

     The Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment in accordance with the
     provisions of Section 1.4(b) hereof.

2.3  Exercise of Options

     (a)  An Option may be exercised at the election of a Participant by the
          purchase of the Underlying Shares at the Exercise Price specified for
          such Option.

     (b)  Subject to Section 2.3(h) Options shall not be exercisable later than
          10 years after the date of grant.

     (c)  The Board may determine when any Option shall become vested and
          exercisable and may determine that the Option shall be vested and
          exercisable in installments.

     (d)  Except as otherwise determined by the Board: (i) in the event that a
          Participant ceases to be an Eligible Person for any reason other than
          death, Retirement or disability, each of the Options held by the
          Participants shall cease to be exercisable on and after the
          Termination Date; (ii) in the event of cessation of employment or
          ceasing to be a director as a result of Retirement or as a result of
          disability, all of the Participant's Options shall continue in force
          notwithstanding the cessation of his or her employment or ceasing to
          be a director; and (iii) in the event of death, the legal
          representatives of a Participant may exercise the Participant's vested
          Options within six months after the date of the Participant's death to
          the extent such Options were by their terms vested and exercisable
          prior to the Participant's death or within the period of six months
          following the Participant's death; but for greater certainty no Option
          shall be exercisable after its stated termination date, except as
          provided under Section 2.3(h).

     (e)  Each Option shall be confirmed by an agreement (an "Option Agreement")
          executed by the Corporation and by the Participant.

     (f)  If, as and when any Common Shares have been duly issued upon the
          exercise of an Option and in accordance with the terms of such Option
          and the Plan and any regulations

<PAGE>

          made hereunder, such Underlying Shares shall be conclusively deemed
          allotted as fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Corporation.

     (g)  If an Option would otherwise expire during a Blackout Period, the term
          of such Option shall automatically be extended until 10 business days
          after the end of the Blackout Period.

3.1  APPROVAL

     The Plan was approved by the directors of the Corporation on November 7,
     1990.

     1998. Shareholder approval of the February 9, 1998 amendment was given at
     the annual and special meeting of the Corporation held on April 29, 1998.

     The Plan was amended and restated by the directors of the Corporation on

     options granted to non-management directors prior to that date, (iii) to
     delete references to the pension plan and (iv) subject to approval of the

      Event at an offer price equal to 100% of the aggregate outstanding principal
      amount thereof plus accrued
      and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the date of such repurchase; provided that
      the requirements of this Section 2.02(b)(iv) shall not apply to the extent
      that the aggregate amount of the Net Cash Proceeds that are required to
      be offered for repurchase of Notes pursuant to this clause (iv) do not
      exceed $100,000 per Exercise Event (or a related series of Exercise
      Events). 

           (v)       Offer
        and Repurchase Mechanics. Subject
        to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, within ten (10) Business
        Days following the occurrence of an Asset Sale, Event of Loss, Debt Issuance,
        Equity Issuance or Exercise Event referred to in clauses (i), (ii), (iii)
        or (iv) above requiring a Mandatory Redemption Offer, the Issuer shall
        deliver to each Holder a written notice stating (1) that a Mandatory
        Redemption Notice is being made pursuant to this Section
        2.02(b) and that Notes tendered
        will be accepted for payment up to an aggregate amount equal to, (x)
        in the case of clause (i) above, one-hundred percent (100%) of the Net
        Cash Proceeds of the applicable Asset Sale or Event of Loss, as applicable,
        less the applicable Reinvestment Deferred Amount, if any, (y) in the
        case of clause (ii) above, fifty percent (50%) of the Net Cash Proceeds
        of the applicable Debt Issuance, and (z) in the case of clause (iii)
        or (iv) above, twenty-five (25%) of the Net Cash Proceeds of the relevant
        Equity Issuance or Exercise Event, as applicable, (2) the purchase price
        (which shall be as specified in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above) and
        the purchase date (which shall be ten (10) Business Days after the date
        such notice is sent) with respect to such event (the “Mandatory
        Payment Date”), and (3) that
        any Notes not tendered or not repurchased will continue to remain outstanding.
        On or before the second Business Day prior to the applicable Mandatory
        Payment Date, each Holder shall notify the Issuer in writing of the amount
        of such Holder’s Notes eligible for redemption that such Holder
        wishes to tender for purchase pursuant to such Mandatory Redemption Offer; provided that,
        in the event any Holder does not so notify the Issuer on or before such
        second Business Day, such Holder shall be deemed to have elected not
        to tender any of such Holder’s Notes for purchase. On the Mandatory
        Payment Date, the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries shall deliver to
        any Holders that have elected to tender all or any portion of their respective
        Notes for purchase pursuant to such Mandatory Redemption Offer, an amount
        equal to the aggregate purchase price for such Notes. Upon receipt by
        any Holder of the purchase price for the Notes which such Holder has
        elected to tender for purchase, such Holder shall deliver to the Issuer
        an aggregate principal amount of Notes equal to not less than the amount
        of Notes of such Holder so tendered, which Notes shall be cancelled by
        the Issuer. In the event such aggregate principal amount of the Notes
        of such Holder delivered to the Issuer exceeds the aggregate principal
        amount of the Notes of such Holder so tendered, the Issuer shall deliver
        to such Holder a new Note or Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal
  to the amount of such excess. 

          2.03.   Repayment on Maturity Date. Anything contained herein to the
contrary notwithstanding, the entire aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding on the Maturity Date shall be

22

repaid on such date, unless such date is not a Business Day, in which case such payment will be made on the Business day immediately preceding the Maturity Date. 

          2.04.   Interest.

          (a)       Subject to the provisions of Section 2.06(b),
interest on the Notes will accrue and be charged on the principal amount thereof for each day at the Interest Rate. All calculations of interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed. 

          (b)       Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any
Event of Default, (i) interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law) on each outstanding Note will accrue and be charged on the principal amount thereof for each day at the Default Rate and (ii) to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws, interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law) will accrue and be charged for each day at the Default Rate on any payments of interest that are not paid when due
and other amounts that are then due and payable hereunder. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand. The Issuer acknowledges and agrees that payment or acceptance
of interest at the Default Rate is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of the Administrative Holder or any Holder. 

          (c)       Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.06(b), interest on each Note shall be due and payable in arrears on the last day of each Interest Accrual Period applicable to such Note, on the date of any redemption of all or any portion of the principal amount of such Note (on the
principal amount so redeemed) and on the Maturity Date. Interest hereunder and under the Notes shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any
Debtor Relief Law. 

          (d)       Interest shall accrue on each Note for the day on which such Note is purchased, and shall not accrue on such Note, or
any portion thereof, for the day on which such Note or such portion is redeemed, provided that any Note that is redeemed on the same day on which it is purchased shall, subject
to Section 2.06(b), bear interest for one day. 

          2.05.   Payment Records. All payments of principal and interest made
by the Issuer under this Agreement and the Notes shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by the Issuer and each applicable Holder in the ordinary course of business. Such accounts or records shall be conclusive, absent
manifest error, of the amount of such payments paid by the Issuer. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Issuer hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the
Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Holder and the accounts and records of the Issuer in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Issuer shall be conclusive evidence of the
matters contained therein in the absence of demonstrable error. Each Holder may attach schedules to any of its Notes and endorse thereon the date and amount of any payments with respect thereto. 

          2.06.   Payments Generally.

          (a)       All payments to be made by the Issuer in respect of the Obligations shall be made without condition or deduction for
any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Issuer in respect of the Obligations shall be made to the Holders to which such payment is owed via wire transfer of Dollars in
immediately available funds on the date such payment is due and payable by 2:00 P.M. All payments received by any Holder after 2:00 P.M. 

23

on the date such payments are due and payable shall be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day, and any applicable interest shall continue to accrue thereon until such Business Day. 

          (b)       If any payment to be made by the Issuer in respect of the Obligations shall come due on a day other than a Business
Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing any applicable interest. 

          2.07.   Sharing of Payments. If, other than as expressly provided
elsewhere herein, any Holder shall obtain, on account of any Note held by it, any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) in excess of its ratable share (or other share contemplated
hereunder) thereof, such Holder shall immediately (a) notify the Administrative Holder of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Holders such participations in the Notes held by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Holder to share
the excess payment in respect of such Note pro rata with each of them; provided that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing
Holder under any of the circumstances described in Section 9.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the purchasing Holder in its discretion), such purchase
shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Holder shall repay to the purchasing Holder the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Holder’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of
such paying Holder’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Holder) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Holder in respect of the total amount so recovered, without further
interest thereon.  The Administrative Holder will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this Section 2.07 and will in each case notify the Holders following any such purchases or repayments. Each Holder that purchases a participation pursuant to this Section 2.07
shall from and after such purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications under this Agreement with respect to the portion of the Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing
Holder were the original owner of the Obligations purchased. 

          2.08.   Representations and Warranties of the Purchasers. Each
Purchaser hereby represents and warrants, severally and not jointly, as follows: 

          (a)       such Purchaser (A) understands that the Notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act and
the Notes are being issued by the Issuer in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and (B) agrees that it will not sell all or any part of the Notes and the Notes may not be offered or sold, except pursuant to
Section 2.07(b) or pursuant to effective registration statements under the Securities Act or pursuant to applicable exemptions from registration under the Securities Act and in
compliance with applicable State laws; 

          (b)       such Purchaser further understands that the exemption from registration afforded by Rule 144 (the provisions of which
are known to such Purchaser) promulgated under the Securities Act depends on the satisfaction of various conditions, and that, if applicable, Rule 144 may afford the basis for sales only in limited amounts; 

          (c)       such Purchaser did not employ any broker or finder in connection with the transactions contemplated in this Agreement
and no fees or commissions are payable to or by such Purchaser except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement; and 

          (d)       such Purchaser is an “Accredited Investor” (as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act). The financial position of such Purchaser is such that it can afford to bear the economic risk of holding the Notes. Such Purchaser can afford to suffer the complete loss of
its investment in the 

24

Notes. The knowledge and experience of such Purchaser in financial and business matters is such that it is capable of evaluating the risks of the investment in the Notes. Such Purchaser acknowledges that no representations,
express or implied, are being made with respect to the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries, the Notes or otherwise, other than those expressly set forth herein. 

ARTICLE III. 

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

          3.01.   Taxes.

          (a)       Any and all payments by the Issuer to or for the account of the Administrative Holder or any Holder under any Note
Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings or similar charges, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding (i)
in the case of the Administrative Holder and each Holder, taxes imposed on or measured by its net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it (in lieu of income taxes), by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) under the Laws of which
the Administrative Holder or such Holder, as the case may be, is organized or, in the case of each Holder, maintains its principal office or a lending office, (ii) any branch profits taxes imposed by the U.S. or any similar tax imposed by any other
jurisdiction described in clause (i) above, (iii) any taxes that are attributable to such Holder’s failure to comply with the requirements of Section 9.11(a) (other than
by reason of a change in law) or (iv) any withholding taxes imposed on amounts payable to a Holder at the time such Holder becomes a party to this Agreement, except to the extent that such Holder’s assignor (if any) was entitled, at the time of
assignment, to receive additional amounts from the Issuer with respect to such withholding taxes pursuant to this Section 3.01(a) (all such non-excluded taxes, duties, levies,
imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings or similar charges, and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes” and those excluded, as
“Excluded Taxes”). If any Note Party shall be required by any Laws to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any Note Document to any the
Administrative Holder or Holder, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), each of the Administrative Holder and
such Holder receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Issuer shall make such deductions, (iii) the Issuer shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other
authority in accordance with applicable Laws, and (iv) within thirty (30) days after the date of such payment, the Issuer shall furnish to the Administrative Holder and such Holder the original or a copy of a receipt, or other documentation
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Holder and such Holder, evidencing payment thereof. 

          (b)       In addition, the Issuer agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, any and all present or future stamp, court or documentary
taxes and any other excise or property taxes or charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made under any Note Document or from the execution, delivery, performance, enforcement or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Note
Document (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”) and within thirty (30) days after the date of such payment, the Issuer shall furnish to the Administrative Holder
and such Holder the original or a copy of a receipt, or other documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Holder and such Holder, evidencing payment thereof.

          (c)       Parent, together with the Issuer, (jointly and severally) agree to indemnify the Administrative Holder and each Holder
for (i) the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section) paid by the Administrative Holder and such Holder and (ii) any liability (including
additions to tax, penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto whether or not such Taxes or 

25

Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant governmental authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Parent or the Issuer by a Holder or the
Administrative Holder on its own behalf shall be conclusive absent a manifest error. Payment under this subsection (c) shall be made as promptly as practicable, but in any event within thirty (30) days, after the date the Holder or the
Administrative Holder makes a demand therefor. 

          (d)       If the Administrative Holder or any Holder receives a refund (including pursuant to a claim for refund made pursuant
to the preceding sentence) in respect of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Issuer, or with respect to which the Issuer has paid additional amounts pursuant to Section
3.01(a), it shall within 30 days from the date of such receipt pay over the amount of such refund to the Issuer, net of all reasonable expenses of the Administrative Holder or such Holder and without interest
(other than interest paid by the relevant taxation authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Issuer, upon the request of the Administrative Holder or such
Holder, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Issuer (plus penalties, interest or other reasonable charges) to the Administrative Holder or such Holder in the event the Administrative Holder or such Holder is required or requested to repay
such refund to such taxing authority. 

          3.02.   Illegality.

          (a)       If any Holder determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is
unlawful, for such Holder to continue to hold its Notes or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBO Rate, such Holder shall give notice thereof to the Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Holder). Upon receipt of such notice,
the Issuer shall, upon demand from such Holder (with a copy to the Administrative Holder), either (i) redeem all Notes, at a price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount outstanding of the Notes, of such Holder, either on the last day of
the current Interest Accrual Period in respect of such Notes, if such Holder may lawfully continue to hold such notes until such date, or immediately, if such Holder may not lawfully continue to hold such Notes, or (ii) at the option of the Issuer,
pay interest on such Holder’s Notes at a rate per annum, as determined by such Holder, that will provide a corresponding yield to such Holder compared to the yield that such Holder would have realized if its Notes had continued to accrue
interest at a rate based upon the LIBO Rate (taking into account any increased cost to such Holder of continuing to hold its Notes). Upon any such prepayment, the Issuer shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid. Each Holder agrees to
hold its Notes through a different office of such Holder if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Holder, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Holder. 

          (b)       Failure or delay on the part of any Holder to provide notice as per Section
3.02(a) shall not constitute a waiver of such Holder’s rights set forth therein; provided that the Issuer shall not be required to
comply with the requirements set forth in Section 3.02(a)(i) or (ii) if such Holder provides notice of the relevant change in Law or assertion of a Governmental Authority more
than one year after the occurrence of such change in Law or assertion of a Governmental Authority; provided, further, that, if such change in Law is retroactive, then the one year period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 

          3.03.   Matters Applicable to all Requests for Compensation.

          (a)       The Administrative Holder or any Purchaser or any Holder claiming compensation under this Article III shall deliver to the Issuer a certificate setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder and accompanied by a reasonably detailed invoice therefor and
supporting calculations, which certificate shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such 

26

amount the Administrative Holder or such Purchaser or Holder may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. 

          3.04.   Survival.  All of the Parent’s and the Issuer’s
obligations under this Article III shall survive the repayment of all Obligations hereunder. 

          (a)       In the event that (i)(A) it becomes illegal for any Holder to continue to hold its Notes or to determine or charge
interest rates based upon the LIBO Rate and such Holder so notifies the Issuer pursuant to Section 3.02, or (B) any Holder is required to make any payment pursuant to
Section 3.01 that is attributable to a particular Holder, and (ii) in the case of clause (i)(B) above, Holders holding at least 50% of the aggregate principal amount
outstanding of the Notes are not subject to such illegality, payment or proceedings (any such Holder, an “Affected Holder”), the Issuer may substitute any Holder and,
if reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Holder, any other Eligible Holder (a “Substitute Institution”) for such Affected Holder hereunder, after delivery of a
written notice (a “Substitution Notice”) by the Issuer to the Administrative Holder and the Affected Holder within a reasonable time (in any case not to exceed ninety
(90) days) following the occurrence of any of the events described in clause (i) above that the Issuer intend to make such substitution; provided that, if more than one Holder
claims increased costs, illegality or right to payment arising from the same act or condition and such claims are received by the Issuer within thirty (30) days of each other, then the Issuer may substitute all, but not (except to the extent the
Issuer have already substituted one of such Affected Holders before the Issuer’s receipt of the other Affected Holders’ claim) less than all, Holders making such claims. 

          (b)       If the Substitution Notice was properly issued under this Section
3.04, the Affected Holder shall sell, and the Substitute Institution shall purchase, all rights and claims of such Affected Holder under the Note Documents, and the Substitute Institution shall assume, and the
Affected Holder shall be relieved of all prior unperformed obligations of the Affected Holder under the Note Documents (other than in respect of any damages (other than exemplary or punitive damages, to the extent permitted by applicable law) in
respect of any such unperformed obligations). Such purchase and sale (and the corresponding assignment of all rights and claims hereunder) shall be effective on (and not earlier than) the later of (i) the receipt by the Affected Holder of the
principal amount of its Notes, together with any other Obligations owing to it and (ii) the payment in full to the Affected Holder in Cash of all fees, unreimbursed costs and expenses and indemnities accrued and unpaid through such effective date.
Upon the effectiveness of such sale, purchase and assumption, the Substitute Institution shall become a “Holder” hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement.

          (c)       Each Holder agrees that, if it becomes an Affected Holder and its rights and claims are assigned hereunder to a
Substitute Institution pursuant to this Section 3.04, it shall execute and deliver to the Issuer an Assignment and Assumption to evidence such assignment, together with any
Note held by it; provided that the failure of any Affected Holder to execute an Assignment and Assumption or deliver such Notes shall not render such assignment invalid.

ARTICLE IV.

Encumbrance) upon any property of such Note Party; and (c) all Indebtedness of the Note Parties, as and when due and payable, but subject to any subordination provisions contained in any instrument or agreement evidencing such

          5.06.   Maintenance of Insurance. At the Issuer’s sole cost and
expense, (a) maintain policies of insurance for director, officer and company liability with the insurance companies providing such policies to the Issuer as of the Closing Date, or such other reputable insurance companies, in amounts not less than
the amounts of the Issuer’s policies existing as of the Closing Date (or such other amounts as is customary in the case of corporations engaged in the same or similar business as the Issuer or having similar properties similarly situated), (b)
timely pay all premiums, fees and charges required in connection with all of its insurance policies and otherwise continue to maintain such policies in full force and effect, and (c) promptly notify the Administrative Holder and the Qualifying

and agents of each Qualifying Holder to visit and inspect, at such reasonable time during normal business hours as stated in such notice, any of the Parent’s and its Subsidiaries properties, to examine their respective corporate, financial and
operating records, and make abstracts therefrom, and to discuss their affairs, finances and accounts with their respective directors, officers and independent public accountants (provided that representatives of the Parent or its Subsidiaries must be present at any such discussion), all (unless an Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing) at the expense of the applicable Qualifying Holders (which expense
shall not be reimbursable by the Parent and its Subsidiaries pursuant to Section 9.04); provided that
the Qualifying Holders may not exercise their rights under this Section 5.09 (for all Qualifying Holders) more than twice in any fiscal year of the Parent (provided that TDH will be entitled to at least one such inspection in each fiscal year of the Parent), unless an Event of Default is continuing, in which case each Qualifying Holder may do any
of the foregoing at the expense of the Parent or its Subsidiaries at any reasonable time during normal business hours and as often as may reasonably be desired. 

          5.10.   Additional Collateral, Etc. With respect to any new domestic
Subsidiary created or acquired after the Closing Date by any Note Party (other than any Deerfield Special Purpose Entity that is prohibited, pursuant to its Organizational Documents or any Contractual Obligation entered into in the ordinary course
of business, from guaranteeing or otherwise providing assurance that any of the Obligations will be paid or discharged, or that any agreements relating thereto will be complied with or if so guaranteeing will result, in the Parent’s reasonable
opinion upon advice of counsel, in a requirement for such Subsidiary to be registered as an Investment Company), promptly (i) execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent such amendments to the Guaranty and Pledge Agreement as the Collateral Agent or
the Administrative Holder reasonably deem necessary to grant to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Holders, a perfected security interest in the Capital Stock of such new Guarantor having such priority as set forth in the Intercreditor
Agreement, (ii) if such Guarantor is a corporation or otherwise issues Capital Stock in certificated form, deliver to the Collateral Agent the certificates representing such Capital Stock, together with undated stock powers, in blank, executed and
delivered by a duly authorized officer of such Guarantor, as the case may be, (iii) if such Guarantor is a corporation or otherwise issues “securities” (as defined in the UCC) in an uncertificated form, deliver to the Collateral Agent a
Securities Control Agreement, and (iv) cause such new Guarantor (A) to become a party to the Guaranty and Pledge Agreement and (B) to take such actions reasonably necessary or advisable to grant to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the
Holders, a perfected security interest in the Pledged Collateral described in the Guaranty and Pledge Agreement with respect to such new Guarantor, including the filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements in such jurisdictions as may be
required by the Guaranty and Pledge Agreement or by law or as may be reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any domestic Subsidiary is created or acquired after the
Closing Date by any Note Party that (i) is not required to be a Guarantor pursuant to the 

32

application of clause (b) of the proviso in the definition of Guarantor and (ii) owns one or more Subsidiaries that are not required to be Guarantors by application of clauses (a) or (b) of the proviso in the definition of
Guarantor, then, so long as doing so would not, in the reasonable determination of the Parent, adversely affect the Parent or its Subsidiaries, such domestic Subsidiary shall become a Restricted Holding Subsidiary subject to the restrictions of
Section 6.18. 

          5.11.   REIT Status. In each case unless otherwise agreed to by the
Parent’s shareholders, (a) take all such actions as are necessary or desirable to maintain the Parent’s qualification to be taxed as a REIT under Section 856 of the Code, (b) not revoke the Parent’s election to be a REIT or take or
omit to take any action which could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in the loss of the Parent’s qualification as a REIT, (c) not allow the Parent to incur liability for material taxes under Section 856(c)(7),
857(b), 857(f), 860(c) or 4981 of the Code (or any comparable provision of state or local laws) and (d) allow the Parent to be entitled to a dividends paid deduction which meets the requirements of Section 857 of the Code. 

          5.12.   Collection of Management and Other Fees. Use commercially
reasonable efforts to collect when due and payable all management, monitoring, transaction and other fees payable to it pursuant to the Deerfield SPE Documents. 

          5.13.   Further Assurances. From time to time the Parent, the Issuer
and the other Note Parties shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such additional instruments, certificates or documents, and take such actions, as the Administrative Holder or the Holders may reasonably request for the
purposes of implementing or effectuating the provisions of this Agreement and the other Note Documents, or of more fully perfecting or renewing the rights of the Administrative Holder or the Holders with respect to the Collateral (or with respect to
any additions thereto or replacements or proceeds thereof or with respect to any Capital Stock hereafter acquired by any Note Party that may be deemed to be part of the Collateral) pursuant hereto or thereto. Upon the exercise by the Administrative
Holder or any Holder of any power, right, privilege or remedy pursuant to this Agreement or the other Note Documents that requires any consent, approval, recording, qualification or authorization of any Governmental Authority, the Parent or its
Subsidiaries will execute and deliver, or will cause the execution and delivery of, all applications, certifications, instruments and other documents and papers that the Administrative Holder or such Holder may be required to obtain from the Parent
or any of its Subsidiaries for such governmental consent, approval, recording, qualification or authorization. 

          5.14.   Note Refinancing. The Issuer and the Parent shall use their
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain or issue, as promptly as possible after the date hereof, a debt facility or debt security for the Issuer, which may be required to be guaranteed by the Parent (a “Replacement Financing”), the proceeds of which will be used to repay in full all outstanding principal and interest on the Notes and all other Obligations. In connection therewith, during each
consecutive three-month period following the date hereof, the Issuer and the Parent shall have discussions with potential sources of funds for a Replacement Financing with respect to the then current market terms on which a Replacement Financing may
be available and, to the extent that it is determined by the board of directors of the Parent that a Replacement Financing is then available on commercially reasonable terms, shall solicit proposals and commitments for, and use commercially
reasonable efforts to obtain, such Replacement Financing. The Issuer and the Parent agree that in their determination as to whether a Replacement Financing is available on commercially reasonable terms, the Issuer and the Parent will consider the
terms of such Replacement Financing taken as a whole, and will not reject a Replacement Financing solely because (i) the interest rate thereunder is greater than the Interest Rate then in effect, (ii) the Issuer will be required to make amortization
payments with respect thereto, or (iii) such Replacement Financing includes one or more financial incurrence or maintenance covenants. Upon request, the Issuer and the Parent will discuss with 

33

the Administrative Holder and the Qualifying Holders the information provided to them with respect to the terms on which a Replacement Financing may at such time be available.

ARTICLE VIII.

Agent. Each Holder hereby irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes the Collateral Agent to take such action as contractual representative on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement or under the
Guaranty and Pledge Agreement and each other Note Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Note Document, together with such powers as are reasonably
incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere herein or in any other Note Document, the Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall the
Collateral Agent have or be deemed to have any trustee or fiduciary relationship with any Holder or participant, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other
Note Document or otherwise exist against the Collateral Agent.

          (b)     Appointment and Authorization of Administrative Holder. Each Holder hereby
irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes the Administrative Holder to take such action as contractual representative on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Note Document and to exercise such powers and perform
such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Note Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere herein or in
any other Note Document, the Administrative Holder shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall the Administrative Holder have or be deemed to have any trustee or fiduciary relationship with any
Holder or participant, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Note Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Holder. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Note Documents with reference to the Administrative Holder is not intended
to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative
relationship between independent contracting parties. The provisions of this Article VIII are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Holder and the Holders and no Note Party shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the
provisions thereof. In performing its functions and duties hereunder, the Administrative Holder shall act solely as an agent of the Holders and does not assume and shall not be 

45

deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust with or for any Note Party. 

          8.02.   Collateral Matters. The Holders irrevocably authorize the
Collateral Agent, at its option and in its discretion: 

          (a)       to take any action with respect to the Collateral which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the Liens
upon the Collateral granted pursuant to any of the Note Documents; 

          (b)       to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Note Document (i) upon
termination of the payment in full of all Obligations, (ii) that is sold or to be sold as part of or in connection with any Disposition permitted hereunder or under any other Note Document, (iii) in accordance with any provision for the release
thereof provided for in this Agreement or the other Note Documents, or (iv) subject to Section 9.01, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required
Holders;

          (c)       to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Note Document to the
holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 6.02; and 

          (d)       following any such release or subordination described in the preceding clauses (b) and (c), to deliver to the Issuer
or any other Person, at its expense, any Collateral so released that is then held by the Collateral Agent hereunder and to execute and deliver to the Issuer or any other Person such releases or other documents as the Issuer or such Person shall
request to evidence or effectuate such release or subordination of Liens (including UCC termination statements, intercreditor agreements and collateral agency agreements). 

          (e)       Upon request by the Collateral Agent at any time, the Required Holders will confirm in writing the Collateral
Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property pursuant to this Section 8.02. 

          8.03.   Duties in the Case of Enforcement. In case one of more Events
of Default have occurred and shall be continuing, the Collateral Agent shall, if (a) so requested (or consented to) by the Administrative Holder or the Required Holders and (b) the Holders have severally provided to the Collateral Agent such
additional indemnities and assurances against expenses and liabilities as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request, proceed to enforce the provisions of any Note Documents authorizing the sale or other disposition of all or any part of the
Collateral (or any other property which is security for the Obligations) and exercise all or any such other legal and equitable and other rights or remedies as it may have in respect of such Collateral (or such other property); provided, in no event shall this sentence require any Holder to provide indemnities or assurances against expenses and liabilities in excess of such Holder’s Overall Pro Rata Share. The
Required Holders may direct the Collateral Agent in writing as to the method and the extent of any such sale or other disposition to the extent permitted under the terms hereof, the Holders hereby agreeing to indemnify and hold the Collateral Agent
harmless from all liabilities incurred in respect of all actions taken or omitted in accordance with such directions, provided that the Collateral Agent need not comply with
any such direction to the extent that the Collateral Agent reasonably believes the Collateral Agent’s compliance with such direction to be unlawful or commercially unreasonable in any applicable jurisdiction. 

          8.04.   Right to Indemnity. Each Holder, in proportion to its Pro Rata
Share or its Overall Pro Rata Share (with respect to claims related to the Administrative Holder and the Collateral Agent, respectively), at the time any claim therefor is made, severally agrees to indemnify the Agents, to the extent that the Agents
shall not have been reimbursed by any Note Party (but without limiting any Note 

46

Party’s reimbursement obligations), for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including counsel fees and disbursements) or
disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Agents in exercising its powers, rights and remedies or performing its duties hereunder or under the other Note Documents or otherwise in its
capacity as Agents in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Note Documents; provided, no Holder shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting solely from the Agents’ gross negligence or willful misconduct. If any indemnity furnished to the Agents for any purpose shall, in
the opinion of the Agents, be insufficient or become impaired, the Agents may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished; provided, in no event shall this sentence require any Holder to indemnify the Agents against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement in
excess of such Holder’s Pro Rata Share or Overall Pro Rata Share (with respect to the Administrative Holder and the Collateral Agent, respectively) thereof; and provided,
further, this sentence shall not be deemed to require any Holder to indemnify the Agents against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost,
expense or disbursement described in the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence. 

          8.05.   General Immunity.

          (a)     No Responsibility for Certain Matters. The Administrative Holder shall not be responsible to any Holder for the
execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectibility or sufficiency hereof or any other Note Document or for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made herein or therein or made in any written or oral
statements or in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports or certificates or any other documents furnished or made by any Holders or by or on behalf of any Note Party in connection with the Note Documents and the transactions
contemplated thereby or for the financial condition or business affairs of any Note Party or any other Person liable for the payment of any Obligations, nor shall the Administrative Holder be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or
observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained in any of the Note Documents or as to the use of the proceeds of the Notes or as to the existence or possible existence of any Event of Default or Default or
to make any disclosures with respect to the foregoing. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, Administrative Holder shall not have any liability arising from confirmations of the outstanding amount of the Notes. 

          (b)     Exculpatory Provisions. Neither the Administrative Holder, the Collateral Agent, nor any of their respective
officers, partners, directors, employees or agents shall be liable to Holders for any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Holder or the Collateral Agent under or in connection with any of the Note Documents except to the extent caused by
the Administrative Holder’s or Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Agents shall be entitled to refrain from any act or the taking of any action (including the failure to take an action) in connection herewith or
any of the other Note Documents or from the exercise of any power, discretion or authority vested in it hereunder or thereunder unless and until the Administrative Holder shall have received instructions in respect thereof from the Required Holders
(or such other Holders as may be required to give such instructions under Section 9.01) and, upon receipt of such instructions from the Required Holders (or such other Holders, as the case may be), the Agents shall be entitled to act or (where so
instructed) refrain from acting, or to exercise such power, discretion or authority, in accordance with such instructions. Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, (i) each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected
in relying, upon any communication, instrument or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person or Persons, and shall be entitled to rely and shall be protected in relying on opinions and
judgments of attorneys (who may be attorneys for Issuer and/or other

47

Note Parties), accountants, experts and other professional advisors selected by it; and (ii) no Holder shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Admin Holder as a result of its acting or (where so instructed)
refraining from acting hereunder or any of the other Note Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Required Holders (or such other Holders as may be required to give such instructions under Section 9.01) . 

          (c)     Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Holder may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and
powers under this Agreement or under any other Note Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Holder. The Administrative Holder and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its
rights and powers by or through their respective Affiliates. The exculpatory, indemnification and other provisions of this Agreement (including Section 8.02) shall apply to the Affiliates of the Administrative Holder. All of the rights, benefits,
and privileges (including the exculpatory and indemnification provisions) of this Article VIII shall apply to any such subagent and to the Affiliates of any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities as sub-agent as if such
sub-agent and Affiliates were named herein. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to each sub-agent appointed by Administrative Holder, (i) such sub-agent shall be a third party beneficiary under this Agreement with respect
to all such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) and shall have all of the rights and benefits of a third party beneficiary, including an independent right of action to enforce such rights,
benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) directly, without the consent or joinder of any other Person, against any or all of the Note Parties and the Holders, (ii) such rights, benefits and privileges
(including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) shall not be modified or amended without the consent of such sub-agent, and (iii) such sub-agent shall only have obligations to Administrative Holder and not to any Note Party, Holder or
any other Person and no Note Party, Holder or any other Person shall have any rights, directly or indirectly, as a third party beneficiary or otherwise, against such sub-agent. 

          8.06.   Successor Administrative Holder. The Administrative Holder may
resign at any time by giving twenty days’ prior written notice thereof to the Holders and the Issuer. Upon any such notice of resignation, the Required Holders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Holder. The
Administrative Holder’s resignation shall become effective on the earlier of (a) twenty days after delivery by the Administrative Holder of the notice referred to in the first sentence of this Section
8.06 and (b) the date on which a successor Administrative Holder shall have been appointed (the “Resignation Date”). On the
Resignation Date, such retiring Administrative Holder shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After any retiring Administrative Holder’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Holder, the provisions of this Article VIII
shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Holder hereunder. 

ARTICLE IX.

amendment, waiver or consent shall:

any other Note Document. 

          9.02.   Notices and Other Communications; Facsimile Copies.

          (a)       General. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other
communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing or by any telecommunication device capable of creating a written record (including electronic mail and facsimile transmission). All such written notices shall be mailed, e-mailed, faxed or
delivered to the applicable address or facsimile number, and all notices and other communications expressly permitted hereunder to be given by telephone shall be made to the applicable telephone number, as follows: 

          (i)       if
      to the Issuer, the Administrative Holder or the Collateral Agent, to the
      address, the e-mail address, facsimile number or telephone number specified
      for such Person on Schedule 9.02 or
      to such other address, the e-mail address, facsimile number or telephone
      number as shall be designated by such party in a notice to the other parties;
      and 

           (ii)       if
      to any Holder, to the address, the e-mail address, facsimile number or
      telephone number specified from time to time by such Holder to the Issuer

49

  Holder or to such other address,
      the e-mail address, facsimile number or telephone number as shall be designated
      by such party in a notice to the Issuer and the Administrative Holder. 

          All such notices and other communications shall be deemed to be given or made upon the earlier to occur of (i) the actual receipt thereof by the relevant party hereto and (ii) (A) if delivered
by hand or by courier, when signed for by or on behalf of the relevant party hereto; (B) if delivered by mail, four (4) Business Days after deposit in the mails, postage prepaid; and (C) if delivered by facsimile, when sent and receipt has been
confirmed by telephone; provided that notices and other communications to the Administrative Holder or the Collateral Agent pursuant to Article II shall not be effective until actually received by the Administrative Holder and the Collateral Agent. In no event shall a voicemail message be effective as a notice, communication or
confirmation hereunder. 

          (b)       Effectiveness of Facsimile Documents and Signatures. Note Documents may be
transmitted and/or signed by facsimile. The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to applicable Law, have the same force and effect as manually-signed originals and shall be binding on each applicable Note Party, the
Collateral Agent, the Administrative Holder and the Holders. The Administrative Holder may also require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a manually-signed original thereof; provided that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any facsimile document or signature. 

          (c)       Reliance by the Administrative Holder and the Holders. The Administrative
Holder and the Holders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices given by or on behalf of the Issuer even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of
notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof, so long as, in each case, such notice is issued by a Responsible Officer of the Issuer or by a Person or Persons reasonably
believed in good faith by the Holders to be Responsible Officers of the Issuer. The Issuer shall indemnify each Indemnitee from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given
by or on behalf of the Issuer. All telephonic notices to and other communications with the Administrative Holder may be recorded by the Administrative Holder, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording. 

          9.03.   No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by any Holder, the
Collateral Agent or the Administrative Holder to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right,
remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege, subject to the terms of applicable Law. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided
are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law. 

          9.04.   Payment of Expenses. The Parent and the Issuer jointly and
severally agree (a) to pay or reimburse the Agents and any Holder for all its reasonable and documented out of pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with any amendment, supplement or modification to this Agreement and the other Note
Documents, entered into at the request of any Note Party (in each case, whether or not the transactions contemplated thereby shall be consummated), including the Attorney Costs of one principal counsel for the Required Holders and the Agents, (b) to
pay or reimburse each Holder and the Agents for all their costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under this Agreement, the other Note Documents and any other documents prepared in connection
herewith or therewith, including without limitation, Attorney Costs of one principal counsel (unless such principal counsel may not represent all Holders as a result of a conflict of interest of such Holders with respect to the Obligations) for all
Holders, and Attorney Costs for counsel to the Agents, (c) to pay, 

50

indemnify, or reimburse each Holder and the Agents for, and hold each Holder and the Agents harmless from, any and all costs and reasonable expenses of perfecting and recording the Liens granted with respect to the
Collateral, including all recording and filing fees, and any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying delinquent or non-payment of any stamp, excise and similar taxes, if any, which may be payable or determined to
be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation or administration of any of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, this
Agreement, the other Note Documents and any such other documents, and (d) to pay, indemnify or reimburse each Holder, the Agents, their respective Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, trustees, employees, advisors, agents and
controlling Persons (each, an “Indemnitee”) for, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from and against, any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement, the other Note Documents and any such
other documents, whether direct, indirect or consequential and whether based on any Laws (including securities and environmental Laws), that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any such Indemnitee, in any manner relating to or
arising out of any Note Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including the Holders’ agreement to receive the Notes hereunder), including, without limitation, the fees and disbursements and other charges of legal counsel
in connection with claims, actions or proceedings by any Indemnitee against the Issuer hereunder (all the foregoing in this clause (d), collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), provided that the Parent and the Issuer shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnitee with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such
Indemnified Liabilities are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable
promptly after written demand therefor. Statements payable by the Issuer pursuant to this Section shall be submitted to the Issuer at the address of the Issuer set forth in Schedule 9.02, or to such other Person or address as may be hereafter designated by the Issuer in a notice to the Holders and the Administrative Holder. To the extent that the undertakings to defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in
this Section 9.04 may be unenforceable in whole or in part because they are violative of any law or public policy, the applicable Note Party shall contribute the maximum
portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by Indemnitees or any of them. The agreements in this Section shall survive repayment of the Notes and all
other amounts payable hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section (other than clause (c) above) shall not apply to any tax-related matter. 

          9.05.   Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on
behalf of the Issuer is made to the Administrative Holder or any Holder, or the Administrative Holder, or any Holder exercises its right of set-off, and such payment or the proceeds of such set-off or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated,
declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Holder or such Holder in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection
with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had
not been made or such set-off had not occurred, and (b) each Holder severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Holder upon demand its applicable share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Holder, plus interest thereon
from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. 

          9.06.   Successors and Assigns.

          (a)       Conditions to Assignment by Holders.

51

          (i)          at
    any time, (x) each Holder may transfer, sell or otherwise assign its Notes

    any individual could transfer, sell or otherwise assign its Notes to if
    such individual were a Holder under clause (y) below and (y) each Holder

      all of the beneficial interests in which shall be held by such Holder or

      heirs or legal representatives (provided that
      during the period that any such trust, corporation, partnership or limited
      liability company holds any right, title or interest in any Notes, no Person
      other than such Holder or such Holder’s Immediate Family members or
      such deceased Holder’s heirs or legal representatives may be or may
      become trustees, beneficiaries, stockholders, partners or members thereof)
      or (4) any Affiliate of a Purchaser (the persons referred to in clauses
      (x) and (y) are each referred to hereinafter as a “Permitted
      Transferee”) and (z) any Permitted
      Transferee of Notes pursuant to this Section
      9.06(a)(i) may transfer, sell or otherwise
      assign its Notes pursuant to this Section
      9.06(a)(i) to the transferring Holder
      of such Notes (the “Transferor”)
      or to another Permitted Transferee of such Transferor; provided in
      each case of (x), (y) and (z) above, that after giving effect to any such
      transfer, sale or assignment, Triarc and its Designated Persons shall hold
      Notes (with respect to which it or any such Designated Person has not sold
      a participation or granted a pledge or created a security interest) having
      an aggregate principal amount outstanding in excess of 50% of the Total
      Series A and Series B Outstandings on the effective date of such transfer,
      sale or assignment;

           (ii)         on
    and after the earlier of (x) the six-month anniversary of the Closing Date
    and (y) the date on which Series B Notes in an aggregate principal amount
    equal to $12,858,453 are either prepaid under the Series B Note Purchase
      Agreement or are purchased by one or more Holders pursuant to Section 2.9(b)
      of the Intercreditor Agreement (the
    “Assignment Trigger Date”),
    each Holder may assign, sell or otherwise transfer its Notes, in whole or
    in part, to any Eligible Holder; provided that
    after giving effect to any such transfer, sale or assignment, Triarc and
    its Designated Persons shall hold Notes (with respect to which it or any
    such Designated Person has not sold a participation or granted a pledge or
    created a security interest) having an aggregate principal amount outstanding
    in excess of 50% of the Total Series A and Series B Outstandings on the effective
    date of such transfer, sale or assignment;

   provided,
      in each case of any assignment, sale or other transfer pursuant to clauses
      (i) or (ii) above that (A) each of the Issuer and the Administrative Holder
      shall have been given prior written notice of such transfer, sale or assignment,(B)
      each such transfer, sale or assignment shall be in a minimum principal
      amount of $500,000 or such lesser amount consented to by the Issuer
      and the Administrative Holder, and (C) the parties to such transfer, sale
      or assignment shall execute and deliver to the Issuer (with a copy to the
      Administrative Holder), for recording in the Register (as hereinafter defined)
      an Assignment and Assumption, together with any Notes subject to such assignment.
      Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after
      the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, which effective
      date shall be at least five (5) Business Days after the execution thereof,
      (1) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent
      provided in such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations
      of a Holder hereunder, and (2) the assigning Holder thereunder shall, to
      the extent provided in such Assignment and Assumption, be released from
      its obligations under this Agreement.

52

          (b)       Certain Representations and Warranties; Limitations; Covenants. By executing
and delivering an Assignment and Assumption, the parties to the assignment thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows:

          (i)          the
    assignee under such Assignment and Assumption is acquiring Notes for its
    own account, for investment and not with a view to any distribution thereof
    within the meaning of the Securities Act; 

           (ii)         such
    assignee (A) understands that the Notes have not been and will not be registered
    under the Securities Act and the Notes are being issued by the Issuer in
    a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities
    Act and (B) agrees that it will not sell all or any part of the Notes and
    the Notes may not be offered or sold, except pursuant to effective registration
    statements under the Securities Act or pursuant to applicable exemptions
    from registration under the Securities Act and in compliance with applicable
    State laws; 

           (iii)        such
    assignee further understands that the exemption from registration afforded
    by Rule 144 (the provisions of which are known to the assignee) promulgated
    under the Securities Act depends on the satisfaction of various conditions,
    and that, if applicable, Rule 144 may afford the basis for sales only in
    limited amounts; 

           (iv)        such
    assignee is an “Accredited Investor” (as
      defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act). The financial position
      of such assignee is such that it can afford to bear the economic risk of
      holding the Notes. Such assignee can afford to suffer the complete loss
      of its investment in the Notes. The knowledge and experience of such assignee
      in financial and business matters is such that it is capable of evaluating
      the risks of the investment in the Notes. Such assignee acknowledges that
      no representations, express or implied, are being made with respect to
      the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries, the Notes or otherwise, other than
      those expressly set forth herein. 

           (v)         Except
    as disclosed in writing by each assignee, the source of funds to be used
    by such assignee to pay the purchase price of the Notes purchased by such
    assignee hereunder does not include assets of any employee benefit plan
    (other than a plan exempt from the coverage of ERISA) or plan or any other
    entity the assets of which consist of “plan
      assets” as defined in Department
      of Labor regulation Section 2510.3 -101. As used herein, the term “employee
      benefit plan” shall have the
      meaning assigned to such term in Section 3 of ERISA, and the term “plan” shall
      have the meaning assigned thereto in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code. 

           (vi)     other
    than the representation and warranty that it is the legal and beneficial
    owner of the interest being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse
    claim, the assigning Holder makes no representation or warranty, express
    or implied, and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements,
    warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement
    or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency
    or value of this Agreement, the other Note Documents or any other instrument
    or document furnished pursuant hereto or the attachment, perfection or
    priority of any security interest or mortgage, 

           (vii)     the
    assigning Holder makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility
    with respect to the financial condition of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries
    or any other Person primarily or secondarily liable in respect of any of
    the Obligations, or the performance or observance by the Note Parties or
    any other Person primarily or secondarily liable in respect of any of the
    Obligations of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any of the
    other Note Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant
    hereto or thereto; 

53

          (viii)   such
      assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together
      with copies of the most recent financial statements referred to in Section
      5.01 and such other documents and
      information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis
      and decision to enter into such Assignment and Assumption; 

           (ix)         such
    assignee will, independently and without reliance upon the assigning Holder,
    the Administrative Holder or any other Holder and based on such documents
    and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make
    its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; 

           (x)          such
    assignee appoints and authorizes the Agents to take such action as agent
    on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the
    other Note Documents as are delegated to the Agents by the terms hereof
    or thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; 

           (xi)         such
    assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with this Agreement
    and the other Note Documents all of the obligations that by the terms thereof
    are required to be performed by it as a Holder; 

           (xii)        such
    assignee represents and warrants that it is legally authorized to enter
    into such Assignment and Assumption; and 

           (xiii)       such
    assignee acknowledges that it has complied with the provisions of Section
      9.11 to the extent applicable. 

          (c)       Register. The Issuer shall maintain a copy of each Assignment and Assumption
delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Holders, and of the principal amounts of the Notes (and any interest thereon) owing to, each Holder pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the
“Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error, and the Issuer, the Administrative Holder and the Holders may treat each
Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Holder hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Issuer, the
Administrative Holder and any Holder, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

          (d)       New Notes. Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Assumption executed by the
parties to such assignment, the Issuer shall (i) record the information contained therein in the Register and (ii) give prompt notice thereof to the Issuer and the Holders (other than the assigning Holder). Promptly after the effectiveness of any
assignment by any Holder of all or any portion of such Holder’s Notes, the Issuer (at its expense) shall execute and deliver (x) to the assignee Holder, one or more Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount
of Notes assigned to such assignee Holder and (y) to the assignor Holder, one or more Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount, if any, of the Notes delivered by such Assignor Holder to the Issuer that were not
assigned to such assignee Holder. 

          (e)       Participations. Any Holder may from time to time and at any time, without the
consent of any Note Party, sell participations in all or any portion of such Holder’s Notes to any other Person (other than a Restricted Entity) that invests in notes, loans, or similar securities; provided that the terms of any such participation shall not entitle the participant to direct such Holder as to the manner in which it votes in connection with any amendment, supplement or other
modification of this Agreement or any waiver or consent with respect to any departure from the terms hereof, in each case unless and to the 

54

extent that the subject matter thereof is one as to which the consent of all Holders is required in order to approve the same and provided,
further, that after giving effect to any participations pursuant to this clause (e), Triarc (and its Designated Persons) shall hold Notes with respect to which it has not sold
a participation in excess of 50% of the Total Series A and Series B Outstandings on the effective date of such participation. 

          (f)       Pledges. Any Holder may from time to time and at any time after the Assignment
Trigger Date, without the consent of any Note Party, pledge, collaterally assign or grant a security interest in all or any portion of such Holder’s Notes to any other Person (other than a Restricted Entity); provided that no such pledge, collateral assignment or grant of security interest shall act as a substitution of the applicable pledgee or assignee for such Holder as a party to this Agreement or any
other Note Document except, in the case of a subsequent foreclosure, if such foreclosure is made in compliance with the other provisions of this Section 9.06; and
provided, further, that after giving effect to any such pledge, collateral assignment or grant of
security interest pursuant to this clause (f), Triarc (and its Designated Persons) shall hold Notes in excess of 50% of the Total Series A and Series B Outstandings that are not subject to any, pledge, collateral assignment or any security interests
on the effective date of such pledge, collateral assignment or grant of security interest. 

          (g)       Assignment by the Issuer. Neither the Parent nor the Issuer shall assign or
transfer any of their respective rights or obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Note Documents without the prior written consent of the Administrative Holder and each of the Holders. 

          (h)       Satisfaction of Indemnification Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Agreement, any Holder may from time to time, without the consent of any Note Party, assign, transfer or deliver all or any portion of such Holder’s Notes to the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries in satisfaction, in
whole or in part, of such Holder’s indemnification obligations under the Merger Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof. 

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

          9.08.   Integration. This Agreement, together with the other Note
Documents, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties on the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on such subject matter. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of
this Agreement and those of any other Note Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of
the Agents or Holders in any other Note Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Note Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of
any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof. 

          9.09.   Survival of Representations and Warranties. All
representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Note Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such
representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Holder and each Holder, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Holder or any Holder or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the
Administrative Holder or any Holder may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default at the time any Note is purchased hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Note or any other Obligation hereunder
shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied. 

55

          9.10.   Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other
Note Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Note Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties
shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The
invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 

          9.11.   Tax Forms.

          (a)       Each Holder that is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Foreign Holder”) shall deliver to the Issuer and the Administrative Holder, prior to
receipt of any payment subject to withholding under the Code (or upon accepting an assignment of an interest herein) or upon the reasonable request of the Issuer or the Administrative Holder, two duly signed completed copies of either IRS Form
W-8BEN or any successor thereto (relating to such Foreign Holder and entitling it to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax on all payments to be made to such Foreign Holder by the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement) or IRS Form W-8ECI or
any successor thereto (relating to all payments to be made to such Foreign Holder by the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement) or, in the case of a Foreign Holder claiming exemption from U.S. withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code
with respect to payments of “portfolio interest,” a Form W-8BEN or any successor thereto (and, if such Foreign Holder delivers a Form W-8, a certificate representing
that such Foreign Holder is not a bank for purposes of Section 881(c) of the Code, is not a 10-percent shareholder (within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code) of the Issuer and is not a controlled foreign corporation related to the
Issuer (within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Code)) claiming complete exemption from U.S. withholding tax. Thereafter and from time to time, each such Foreign Holder shall (A) promptly submit to the Issuer and the Administrative Holder
such additional duly completed and signed copies of one of such forms (or such successor forms as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) as may then be required under then current United States laws and
regulations to avoid or reduce, or such evidence as is satisfactory to the Issuer and the Administrative Holder of any available exemption from or reduction of, United States withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Foreign
Holder by the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement, (B) promptly notify the Issuer and the Administrative Holder of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption and (C) upon the Issuer’s request, take such
steps as shall not be disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of such Holder, and as may be reasonably necessary to avoid any requirement of applicable Laws that the Issuer make any deduction or withholding for taxes from amounts payable
to such Foreign Holder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Foreign Holder shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this Section 9.11(a) that it is
not entitled or otherwise legally able to deliver. 

          (b)       Each Holder that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Issuer and the Administrative Holder, prior to receipt of any payment subject to withholding under the Code (or upon accepting an assignment of an
interest herein) or upon request of the Issuer or the Administrative Holder two duly signed completed copies of IRS Form W-9. Thereafter and from time to time, each such Holder shall (i) promptly submit to the Issuer and the Administrative Holder
such additional duly completed and signed copies of such form (or such successor form as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) as may then be required under then current United States laws and
regulations to avoid, or such evidence as is satisfactory to the Issuer and the Administrative Holder of any available exemption from, United States backup withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Holder by the Issuer pursuant
to this Agreement, (ii) promptly notify the Issuer and the Administrative Holder of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption, and (iii) upon the Issuer’s 

56

request, take such steps as shall not be disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of such Holder, and as may be reasonably necessary to avoid any requirement of applicable Laws that the Issuer make any deduction or
withholding for taxes from amounts payable to such Holder. If such Holder fails to deliver such forms, then the Issuer may withhold from any payment to such Holder an amount equivalent to the applicable back-up withholding tax imposed by the Code.

          (c)       If any Governmental Authority asserts that the Administrative Holder did not properly withhold or backup withhold, as
the case may be, any tax or other amount from payments made to or for the account of any Holder, such Holder shall indemnify the Administrative Holder therefor, including all penalties and interest, any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the
amounts payable to the Administrative Holder under this Section, and costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs) of the Administrative Holder. The obligation of the Holders under this Section shall survive the repayment of all other Obligations
hereunder and the resignation of the Administrative Holder. Nothing contained in this Section 9.11(c) shall alter or otherwise affect the indemnification obligations set forth
in Section 3.01.

          9.12.   Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction.

          (a)       THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO
AGREEMENTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED ENTIRELY WITHIN SUCH STATE; PROVIDED THAT THE COLLATERAL AGENT AND EACH HOLDER SHALL RETAIN ALL RIGHTS ARISING UNDER FEDERAL LAW. 

          (b)       THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY CONSENT, UNCONDITIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY,
TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE FEDERAL AND STATE COURTS OF THE STATE
OF NEW YORK AND WAIVE ANY OBJECTION BASED ON VENUE OR FORUM NON CONVENIENS WITH
RESPECT TO ANY PROCEEDING RELATING TO ANY MATTER, CLAIM OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER
THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER NOTE DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY
OR THEREBY IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER
IN CONTRACT, TORT, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE OTHER THAN PURSUIT OF A JUDGMENT ON A
NOTE WHERE SUIT IS ALSO BROUGHT IN THE STATE WHERE ANY COLLATERAL IS LOCATED
TO TAKE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COLLATERAL. THE PARENT AND THE ISSUER FURTHER CONSENT,
GENERALLY, UNCONDITIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY, TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION
OF THE STATE AND FEDERAL COURTS OF EACH STATE WHERE ANY COLLATERAL IS LOCATED
IN RESPECT OF ANY PROCEEDING RELATING TO ANY MATTER, CLAIM OR DISPUTE ARISING
WITH RESPECT TO SUCH COLLATERAL INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO FORECLOSURES, AND
THE PARENT AND THE ISSUER AGREE THAT COLLATERAL AGENT AND HOLDERS SHALL HAVE
THE RIGHT TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING AGAINST THE PARENT AND THE ISSUER
OR THEIR PROPERTY IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION WHICH THE COLLATERAL
AGENT OR HOLDERS DEEM NECESSARY OR APPROPRIATE IN ORDER TO REALIZE ON THE COLLATERAL
OR OTHER SECURITY FOR THE OBLIGATIONS OR TO OTHERWISE ENFORCE ITS RIGHTS AGAINST
THE PARENT OR THE ISSUER’S PROPERTY. THE PARENT AND THE ISSUER FURTHER IRREVOCABLY
WAIVE PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY AND ALL PROCESS UPON THEM AND CONSENT TO THE SERVICE
OF PROCESS, GENERALLY, UNCONDITIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY, AT THE ADDRESSES SET
FORTH HEREIN IN CONNECTION WITH ANY OF THE AFORESAID PROCEEDINGS IN ACCORDANCE
WITH THE RULES APPLICABLE TO SUCH PROCEEDINGS. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
LAW, THE PARENT AND THE ISSUER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY OBJECTION WHICH THEY
MAY NOW HAVE OR HAVE IN THE FUTURE TO THE LAYING OF

57

VENUE IN RESPECT OF ANY OF THE AFORESAID PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT IN THE COURTS REFERRED TO ABOVE AND AGREE NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY SUCH COURT THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN
AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.  NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF THE COLLATERAL AGENT AND THE HOLDERS TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO COMMENCE PROCEEDINGS OR OTHERWISE PROCEED AGAINST ANY BORROWER IN ANY JURISDICTION. To the
extent that the Parent or the Issuer has or may hereafter acquire any immunity from the jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution
or otherwise) with respect to the Parent or the Issuer or their respective property, the Parent and the Issuer hereby irrevocably waive such immunity in respect of their respective obligations under this Agreement. 

          9.13.   Waiver of Right to Trial by Jury and Other Rights. TO THE
MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY AND ANY RIGHT OR CLAIM TO ANY CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, EXPECTANCY DAMAGES, SPECIAL DAMAGES AND
GENERAL DAMAGES IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENT (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTION OF ANY PARTY OR ANY EXERCISE BY ANY
PARTY OF ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS HEREUNDER OR IN ANY WAY RELATING TO ANY NOTE OR ANY PROPERTY (INCLUDING ANY ACTION TO RESCIND OR CANCEL THIS AGREEMENT, AND ANY CLAIM OR DEFENSE ASSERTING THAT THIS AGREEMENT WAS FRAUDULENTLY INDUCED OR IS OTHERWISE
VOID OR VOIDABLE).  THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE PARTIES HERETO TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND TO CONSUMMATE THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER. 

          9.14.   Time of the Essence. For all payments to be made and all
obligations to be performed under the Note Documents, time is of the essence.
