Summary of Principal Terms of Proposed
Chapter 11 Restructuring

 

This Summary of Principal Terms of Proposed Chapter 11 Restructuring
(the “Term Sheet”) sets out the principal terms of a proposed consensual restructuring (the “Restructuring”)
of Rand Logistics, Inc. and its direct and indirect subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or the “Debtors”).

 

	Restructuring Overview	 	The Restructuring would effectuate a comprehensive restructuring of the Company’s balance sheet through expedited cases (the “Cases”) under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code, 11 U.S.C. §§ 101-1532 (the “Bankruptcy Code”).  Lightship Capital LLC, as the sole lender under the Second Lien Credit Agreement (as defined below) (“Lightship”), will enter into a Restructuring Support Agreement with the Company and the other parties thereto (the “RSA”).  The parties to the RSA will agree to coordinate on the implementation of the Restructuring through a prepackaged chapter 11 plan of reorganization implementing the terms set forth herein and in the RSA (the “Plan”).

 

		I.	Debt to be Restructured

 

	First Lien Claims	 	The “First Lien Claims” are claims against the Company (including, for the avoidance of doubt, principal, interest (including any PIK interest), fees, costs and expenses) arising under that certain Credit Agreement, dated March 27, 2015 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “First Lien Credit Agreement”), among Lower Lakes Towing Ltd. (“Lower Lakes”), Lower Lakes Transportation Company (“LLTC”), Grand River Navigation Company, Inc. (“Grand River”), and Black Creek Shipping Company (each, as a borrower), the guarantors party thereto, Bank of America, N.A., as agent (the “First Lien Agent”), and the lenders party thereto (the “First Lien Lenders”).
	 	 	 
	Second Lien Claims	 	The “Second Lien Claims” are claims against the Company (including, for the avoidance of doubt, principal, interest (including any PIK interest), fees, costs and expenses) arising under that certain Term Loan Credit Agreement, dated March 11, 2014 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Second Lien Credit Agreement”), among Lower Lakes, LLTC, Grand River and Black Creek Shipping Company (each, as a borrower), the guarantors party thereto, Guggenheim Corporate Funding, LLC, as agent, and the lenders party thereto. 
	 	 	 
	General Unsecured Claims	 	“General Unsecured Claims” are claims against the Company that are neither secured nor entitled to priority under the Bankruptcy Code or any order of the bankruptcy court.

 

     

     

    

 

	 	 	 
	Intercompany Claims	 	“Intercompany Claims” are claims by a Debtor against another Debtor or claims by an affiliate of the Debtors against a Debtor.
	 	 	 
	Existing Preferred Shares	 	The “Existing Preferred Shares” are the approximately 295,000 of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock issued by the Company pursuant to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Designations of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of Rand Logistics, Inc., dated as of August 8, 2006.
	 	 	 
	Existing Common Stock	 	The “Existing Common Shares” are the approximately 18.6 million publicly-traded shares of common stock issued by the Company and trading on NASDAQ under the ticker symbol “RLOG.”  

 

		II.	Plan Terms

 

	Administrative, Priority Tax, and Other Priority Claims	 	On or as soon as practicable after the later to occur of (i) the effective date of the Plan (the “Effective Date”) and (ii) the date a claim becomes allowed, each holder of an administrative, priority tax or other priority claim shall be paid in full in cash or receive other treatment consistent with the provisions of section 1129(a)(9) of the Bankruptcy Code or such other treatment as may be agreed by the holder of such allowed claim and the Company, with the consent of Lightship.
	 	 	 
	Treatment of First Lien Claims	 	The First Lien Claims will be deemed allowed in full and modified and extended on the terms to be agreed upon by the Company, the First Lien Agent and Lightship.  The holders of First Lien Claims will be impaired under the Plan and thus entitled to vote; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the impairment of the First Lien Claims shall be limited to the agreement of the holders of First Lien Claims to allow the obligations owing under the First Lien Credit Agreement to be amended and restated upon consummation of the Plan. 
	 	 	 
	Treatment of Second Lien Claims	 	
        The Second Lien Claims will be deemed allowed
        in full and cancelled in exchange for 100% of the new common stock to be issued by the reorganized Company (“New Common
        Stock”), subject to dilution for the Equity Incentive Program (as defined below). The holders of Second Lien Claims
        will be impaired under the Plan and thus entitled to vote.

         

        The distribution of New Common
Stock to Lightship, as a holder of Second Lien Claims, will be made to AIP Stone Holding, LP, an affiliate of Lightship formed
to maintain the Company’s compliance with the Jones Act following such distribution.

 

    2 

     

    

 

	 	 	 
	Treatment of General Unsecured Claims	 	Allowed General Unsecured Claims will either be (i) paid in cash in full or (ii) reinstated, as determined by the Company, with the consent of Lightship.  The holders of General Unsecured Claims will be unimpaired and deemed to accept the Plan and thus not entitled to vote.
	 	 	 
	Treatment of Intercompany Claims	 	All intercompany claims will be paid, adjusted, reinstated, or cancelled as determined by the Company, with the consent of Lightship. 
	 	 	 
	Treatment of Existing Preferred Shares	 	All Existing Preferred Shares will be cancelled and will not receive any distribution. The holders of Existing Preferred Shares will be impaired and deemed to reject the Plan and thus not entitled to vote.
	 	 	 
	Treatment of Existing Common Shares	 	All Existing Common Shares will be cancelled and will not receive any distribution.  The holders of Existing Common Shares will be impaired and deemed to reject the Plan and thus not entitled to vote.
	 	 	 
	Sale Process Proceeds	 	If the Approved Sale Process (as defined in the RSA) results in an Acceptable Sale (as defined in the RSA), the First Lien Claims and the Second Lien Claims (each as allowed pursuant to the Plan) shall be paid in cash in full upon the closing of the Acceptable Sale.  Proceeds from such sale remaining after the payment in full of allowed administrative, priority tax, and other priority claims, the First Lien Claims, the Second Lien Claims and allowed General Unsecured Claims not otherwise cured or assumed by the purchaser shall be distributed to the holders of the Existing Preferred Shares and Existing Common Shares in accordance with applicable law.
	 	 	 
	Releases and Exculpation	 	
        The Plan will provide for third party releases
        to the fullest extent permitted by law of, and releases between and among, all material parties, including (i) the Company, the
        holders of First Lien Claims, the First Lien Agent, the holders of Second Lien Claims, and the agent under the Second Lien Credit
        Agreement, and (ii) each of their respective current and former officers, directors, members, employees, advisors, attorneys, professionals,
        accountants, investment bankers and other representatives for each of the foregoing.

         

        The Plan shall exculpate to the
fullest extent permitted by law (i) the Company, the holders of First Lien Claims, the First Lien Agent, the holders of Second
Lien Claims, and the agent under the Second Lien Credit Agreement, and (ii) each of their respective current and former officers,
directors, members, employees, advisors, attorneys, professionals, accountants, investment bankers and other representatives.

 

    3 

     

    

 

	 	 	 
	Existing Indemnity Obligations	 	

Under the Plan, all indemnification provisions currently in place (whether in the by-laws, certificates of incorporation, articles of limited partnership, board resolutions or employment contracts) for the current and former directors, officers, employees, attorneys, other professionals and agents of each of the Debtors and such current and former directors’ and officers’ respective affiliates shall be continuing obligations of the reorganized Debtors solely to the extent necessary to permit coverage of all such persons under any Runoff Endorsements; provided that in no event shall any such claim for indemnity be recoverable from the Company as opposed to under such Runoff Endorsements.  The amended and restated bylaws, certificates of incorporation, articles of limited partnership and other organizational documents of the reorganized Debtors adopted as of the Effective Date shall include provisions to give effect to the foregoing.
	 	 	 
	Director and Officer Liability Policy	 	
        Prior to the Petition Date, and subject
        to the prior written consent of Lightship, the Company shall purchase runoff endorsements to the Company’s existing D&O
        liability insurance policies extending coverage for current or former directors, officers, employees, attorneys, other professionals
        and agents of each of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates that will become Debtors in the Cases for a six-year period
        after the Effective Date for covered liabilities arising from activities occurring prior to the Effective Date (collectively, the
        “Runoff Endorsements”).

         

        The reorganized Company shall
purchase new D&O liability insurance policies for directors, officers, employees, attorneys, other professionals and agents
of the reorganized Debtors on terms and conditions acceptable to Lightship.

	 	 	 
	Equity Incentive Programs for Directors and Management 	 	On the Effective Date, 10% of the new common stock of the reorganized Company (on a fully diluted basis) issued under the Plan shall be reserved for issuance of equity or equity-based awards in connection with an equity incentive program for management and directors (the “Equity Incentive Program”).  The terms of the Equity Incentive Program shall be determined by the board of directors of the reorganized Company and any awards thereunder shall be determined by the board of directions of the reorganized Company in its sole discretion.
	 	 	 
	Management Agreements and Retention Arrangements	 	
        Lightship will negotiate in good faith
        with the Company and its management regarding the potential retention of management and other employees, compensation for such
        employees and potential retention incentives for such employees to be paid upon or following the Effective Date; provided
        that the Company may not enter into any employment, compensation or retention incentive agreement with any of its employees without
        the consent of Lightship and Lightship is not obligated to provide such consent.

         

        The Company and Lightship also
agree to negotiate in good faith with respect to all existing employment agreements, severance agreements or other arrangements
or policies in place with respect to the compensation and benefits of directors, officers and managers of the Company; provided
that the Company may not assume any employment agreement, severance agreement or other agreement with respect to the compensation
and benefits of directors, officers and managers of the Company without the consent of Lightship and Lightship is not obligated
to provide such consent.

 

    4 

     

    

 

	 	 	 
	Tax Structure	 	All tax issues and matters of tax structure relative to the Plan and the transactions as contemplated herein shall be addressed as determined by the Company, with the consent of Lightship. 
	 	 	 
	Government and Regulatory Approvals	 	It shall be a condition to the Effective Date that all governmental or other approvals required to effectuate the terms of the Plan shall have been obtained, including, without limitation, any approvals with respect to the Jones Act businesses.

 

		III.	Funding of the Cases

 

	

DIP Facility	 	
        The First Lien Agent and the First Lien
        Lenders will provide the Company with a postpetition revolving loan facility on a senior secured basis by ratifying and amending
        the First Lien Credit Agreement (the “DIP Facility”) in an amount to be agreed to fund operations and
        the payment of administrative expenses in the Cases on terms and conditions acceptable to the First Lien Agent, the First Lien
        Lenders, Lightship and the Company.

         

        All cash in the possession of the Company
        or coming into its possession or control after the Cases are filed (other than proceeds of the DIP Facility) will be used to satisfy
        (and will be deemed to be remitted to the holders of) First Lien Claims for application to, and payment of, all prepetition debt
        owing by the Debtors to the holders of the First Lien Claims with a corresponding borrowing deemed to have been made under the
        DIP Facility.

         

        As adequate protection in connection with
        the DIP Facility, the holders of First Lien Claims will receive (i) replacement liens, (ii) superpriority claims, (iii) current
        payment in cash of (A) postpetition interest (at the default rate), subject to agreement by the First Lien Agent on an acceptable
        budget that contemplates payment of such interest, and (B) reasonable and documented fees, and (iv) other customary rights and
        protections offered in connection with the DIP Facility.

         

        As adequate protection in connection
with the DIP Facility, the holders of Second Lien Claims will receive (i) replacement liens (junior to the liens granted under
the DIP Facility to the DIP lenders and the holders of First Lien Claims as adequate protection), (ii) superpriority claims (junior
to the claims granted under the DIP Facility to the DIP lenders and the superpriority claims granted to holders of First Lien
Claims as adequate protection), (iii) current payment in cash of (A) postpetition interest (at the default rate), subject to agreement
by the First Lien Agent on an acceptable budget that contemplates payment of such interest, and (B) reasonable and documented
fees (subject to potential recharacterization if the Second Lien Claims are found to be not secured or undersecured by final order
of a court of competent jurisdiction) and (iv) other customary rights and protections offered in connection with the DIP Facility.

the voting rights and powers of the holders of Common Stock and shall be entitled to vote, on an as-converted basis together with
the holders of Common Stock, with respect to any question upon which the holders of Common Stock have the right to vote (such right
to vote on an as-converted basis, the “Voting Right”); and

 

WHEREAS, Section 9(f)
of the Certificate of Designations provides that, for so long as at least fifty percent (50%) of the Series A Shares remain outstanding,
the Company will not, without first obtaining the written consent or affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of
the shares of Series A Shares then outstanding, effect, or agree to effect, any transaction that will result in a change of control
(the “Change of Control Consent Right”).

 

     

     

    

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the parties’ reliance on the premises, representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth herein
and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby
agree as follows:

  

Section 1.Transfer
of Series A Shares. The Company hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to register
in the name of Investor the Series A Shares immediately upon delivery to the Company of the following: (a) certificates evidencing
the Series A Shares, (b) stock powers duly executed by the Series A Holders transferring the Series A Shares to Investor,
(c) a certification in the form of Exhibit A to this Agreement that Investor is a Citizen (as such term is defined in the
Charter) and (d) an opinion of counsel in the form of Exhibit B to this Agreement that the transfer of the Series A Shares
does not require registration under Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company
shall not condition the registration of the Series A Shares in the name of Investor on the delivery of any document, or the taking
of any action, by any party or the occurrence of any event other than the delivery of the documents described in subsections (a)
through (d) of the foregoing sentence.

 

Section 2.Conversion.
Effective upon the Effective Time, Investor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (a) waives its Conversion Right, and shall not
convert any of its shares of Series A Shares pursuant to Section 6 (Conversion) of the Certificate of Designations to the extent
that, after giving effect to the issuance of shares of the Common Stock, upon such conversion, Investor would beneficially own
in excess of 4.99% of the outstanding number of shares of Common Stock (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”),
(b) waives its Voting Right and shall not exercise its Voting Right to the extent such exercise of its Voting Right would give
Investor voting power over the shares of Common Stock (determined on an as-converted basis) in excess of the Beneficial Ownership
Limitation and (c) agrees not to sell or otherwise transfer any Series A Shares unless the transferee agrees in writing to be bound
by the obligations and limitations set forth in this Section 2. For purposes of calculating the Beneficial Ownership Limitation,
the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Investor shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (including, without limitation,
Regulation 13D-G). 

 

Section 3.Change
of Control. Investor irrevocably and unconditionally (a) waives, effective as of the Effective Time, the Change of Control
Consent Right and (b) agrees not to sell or otherwise transfer any Series A Shares unless the transferee agrees in writing to be
bound by the obligations and limitations set forth in this Section 3.

 

Section 4.Specific
Performance. Each party hereto agrees that irreparable injury will result to a party hereto or any of its affiliates if
any other party hereto breaches any of the terms herein, and that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any such breach.
Each party hereto therefore agrees that if it commits any such breach, then any other party hereto will be entitled, in addition
to all other remedies and relief available under applicable law, to an injunction or order of specific enforcement, without any
requirement for the security or posting of any bond in connection with the foregoing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the Company shall have all rights to enforce the obligations and agreements of Investor hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt,
nothing herein shall require Investor to purchase any Series A Shares.

 

    2 

     

    

 

Section 5.Miscellaneous.

 

(a)              
Modifications. This Agreement shall not be amended, modified or waived by Investor or the Company.

 

(b)              
Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York,
without regard to principles of conflicts of laws.

 

(c)        Successor
and Assigns. This Agreement shall be irrevocable and binding on all of Investor’s successors and assigns.

 

(d)        Notice.
All notices and other communications in connection with this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly

Credit Agreement to the contrary, (i) Sections 9.2, 9.3, 9.4, 9.6,9.5, 9.7, 9.9, and 11.3 of the Credit
Agreement, to the extent they pertain to the Existing Agent and/or any of its’ Affiliates and each of their respective

or any of its Related Parties shall have any liability (express or implied) by operation of this sentence.

 

(e) 
Effective on the date hereof, each Credit Party, for itself and on behalf of its successors, assigns, and officers,
directors, employees, agents and attorneys, and any Person acting for or on behalf of, or claiming through it, hereby waives,
releases, remises and forever discharges Existing Agent, each of its Affiliates, and each of their respective past, present
and future officers, directors, employees, limited partners, general partners, investors, attorneys, subsidiaries,
shareholders, trustees, agents and other professionals (each a “Releasee” and collectively, the
“Releasees”), from any and all past, present and future claims, suits, liens, lawsuits, adverse
consequences, amounts paid in settlement, debts, deficiencies, diminution in value, disbursements, demands, obligations,
liabilities, causes of action, damages, losses, costs and expenses of any kind or character, whether based in equity, law,
contract, tort, implied or express warranty, strict liability, criminal or civil statute or common law (each a
“Claim” and collectively, the “Claims”), whether known or unknown, fixed
or contingent, direct, indirect, or derivative, asserted or unasserted, matured or unmatured, foreseen or unforeseen, past or
present, liquidated or unliquidated, suspected or unsuspected, which such Credit Party ever had from the beginning of the
world, now has, or might hereafter have against any such Releasee which relates, directly or indirectly to the Credit
Agreement, any other Loan Document, or to any acts or omissions of any such Releasee with respect to the Credit Agreement or
any other Loan Document, or to the lender- borrower relationship evidenced by the Loan Documents in each case on or before
the Effective Date, except (x) to the extent of Claims that are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and
non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Releasee and (y) for
the duties and obligations set forth in this Agreement. As to each and every Claim released hereunder, each Credit Party
hereby represents that it has received the advice of legal counsel with regard to the releases contained herein, and having
been so advised, specifically waives the benefit of the provisions of Section 1542 of the Civil Code of California which
provides as follows:

 

    2 

     

    

 

“A GENERAL RELEASE DOES
NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE,
WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.”

 

As to each
and every Claim released hereunder, each Credit Party also waives the benefit of each other similar provision of applicable federal,
provincial, or state law (including without limitation the laws of the state of New York), if any, pertaining to general releases
after having been advised by its legal counsel with respect thereto.

 

Each Credit
Party acknowledges that it may hereafter discover facts different from or in addition to those now known or believed to be true
with respect to such Claims and agrees that this instrument shall be and remain effective in all respects notwithstanding any such
differences or additional facts. Each Credit Party understands, acknowledges and agrees that the release set forth above may be
pleaded as a full and complete defense and may be used as a basis for an injunction against any action, suit or other proceeding
which may be instituted, prosecuted or attempted in breach of the provisions of such release.

 

Each Credit
Party, for itself and on behalf of its successors, assigns, and officers, directors, employees, agents and attorneys, and any Person
acting for or on behalf of, or claiming through it, hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably, covenants and agrees with
and in favor of each Releasee above that it will not sue (at law, in equity, in any regulatory proceeding or otherwise) any Releasee
on the basis of any Claim released, remised and discharged by such Person pursuant to the above release. Each Credit Party further
agrees that it shall not dispute the validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any
of its obligations thereunder, or the validity, priority, enforceability or the extent of Agent’s Lien on any item of Collateral
under the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If any Credit Party, or any of their respective successors, assigns, or
officers, directors, employees, agents or attorneys, or any Person acting for or on behalf of, or claiming through it violate the
foregoing covenant, such Person, for itself and its successors, assigns and legal representatives, agrees to pay, in addition to
such other damages as any Releasee may sustain as a result of such violation, all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket attorneys’
fees and costs incurred by such Releasee as a result of such violation.

 

    3 

     

    

 

(f) As
of the Effective Date, the Existing Agent hereby assigns (without recourse, representation or warranty of any kind) to
Lightship Capital, as the Successor Agent, (x) all Liens and security interests created in favor of the Existing Agent
under the Credit Agreement, the Collateral Documents (with respect to any Mortgage, after giving effect to the applicable
Mortgage Assignment (as defined below)) and the other Loan Documents (collectively, the “Assigned Loan
Documents”) and (y) all of its rights, titles and interests as secured party or lien holder under or in
connection with any and all Assigned Loan Documents, Uniform Commercial Code financing statements, PPSA financing statements
(or other financing statements) filed by the Existing Agent on behalf of itself and/or the Secured Parties in its capacity as
Existing Agent in connection with the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and Lightship Capital, as the Successor
Agent, hereby assumes all such Liens and security interests, for its benefit and for the benefit of the other Secured
Parties, and all such rights, titles and interests as secured party or lien holder under or in connection with the Assigned
Loan Documents and such financing statements. All of such Liens and security interests shall in all respects be continuing
and in effect following execution and delivery of this Agreement and are hereby ratified and reaffirmed by the Credit
Parties. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any and all references to Guggenheim on any publicly filed
document, to the extent such filing relates to Liens and security interests assigned to the Successor Agent hereby and until
such filing is modified to reflect the interest of Lightship Capital, as Successor Agent, shall, with respect to such Liens
and security interests, constitute a reference to “Guggenheim” as the nominee and collateral representative of
Lightship Capital, as Successor Agent. On and after the Effective Date, all possessory Collateral, including, for the
avoidance of doubt, the possessory Collateral listed on Schedule 2 hereto, still held by the Existing Agent for the
benefit of the Secured Parties shall be deemed to be held by the Existing Agent as agent and bailee for the Successor
Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties until such time as such possessory collateral has been delivered to the
Successor Agent; provided that, the Existing Agent shall deliver all such possessory collateral on the Effective Date.
The Borrowers, the other Credit Parties and Guggenheim agree that the Successor Agent is authorized as it may deem necessary
or appropriate to (a) file initial financing statements, “in lieu of” financing statements, assignments of
financing statements, financing change statements, amended financing statements, debentures, charges or other filings, to
make any and all filings with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office, and to
make any amendment, assignment or other filing with respect to any real property or vessels covered by any mortgages or other
real property or other Lien filings, in each instance covering any of the collateral described in any Assigned Loan Document
or any other agreement, instrument or document delivered or entered into under or in connection therewith or furnished
pursuant thereto and (b) appoint one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction in order to effectuate the intent and
purposes of this Agreement and Section 5.10 of the Credit Agreement.

 

2.       Further
Assurances.

its obligations to Lightship Capital as the Successor Agent with respect to the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents in
accordance with their respective terms.

 

(b)
 Each Credit Party agrees that, on or following the Effective Date, it shall (subject to Section 11.3 of the Credit
Agreement at its own expense), promptly (or on such later date as may be determined by the Successor Agent in its sole discretion)
upon request of the Successor Agent take any and all actions as the Successor Agent may reasonably request to evidence the assignment
of the Liens on the Collateral or to otherwise effectuate the intent and purposes of this Agreement and Section 5.10 of
the Credit Agreement.

 

(c)
 The Existing Agent agrees that, on or following the Effective Date, it shall promptly (i) furnish, at the Borrower’s
sole cost and expense (and so long as Existing Agent shall have been reimbursed for the costs and expenses incurred in connection

customary and may be reasonably requested by the Successor Agent in order to effect and evidence more fully the matters covered
hereby and (ii) deliver to the Successor Agent, at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense (and so long as Existing Agent shall
have been reimbursed for the costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith prior thereto), all original stock certificates,
instruments, promissory notes and other property of the Borrowers, the Guarantors, or any of their respective Subsidiaries held
by the Existing Agent at such time to the extent such relate to any of the Loan Documents. The Existing Agent authorizes the Credit
Parties and the Successor Agent (and their respective counsel) to prepare and file such UCC and PPSA financing statements and amendments
under the Uniform Commercial Code in the offices and jurisdictions that the Successor Agent deems necessary or appropriate to effectuate
the intent and purposes of this Agreement.

 

    4 

     

    

 

(d)

benefit of Parent and its successors and assigns. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to confer on any Person (other than Parent and its successors and assigns) any rights or remedies of any nature. 

  
 5

 7.8    Governing Law;
Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.

accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof. In any action between the parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, each of the parties irrevocably and unconditionally consents and submits to the jurisdiction and venue of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware in and for New Castle County, Delaware

be deemed to be a part of this Agreement and shall not be referred to in connection with the construction or interpretation of this Agreement. 

7.11    Waiver. No failure on the part of Parent to exercise any power, right, privilege or remedy under
this Agreement, and no delay on the part of Parent in exercising any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, shall operate as a waiver of such power, right, privilege or remedy; and no single or partial exercise of any such power,
right, privilege or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right, privilege or remedy. Parent shall not be deemed to have waived any claim available to Parent arising out of this Agreement, or any power,
right, privilege or remedy of Parent under this Agreement, unless the waiver of such claim, power, right, privilege or remedy is expressly set forth in a written instrument duly executed and delivered on behalf of Parent; and any such waiver shall
not be applicable or have any effect except in the specific instance in which it is given.
