                                            anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Brookfield Investor may Transfer any of its interest

16.           Reservation
of Rights; Settlement Discussions. If the Restructuring Transactions are not consummated, or if this Agreement is terminated for
any reason, the Parties fully reserve any and all of their rights. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 408 and any applicable state
rules of evidence, this Agreement and all negotiations relating hereto shall not be admissible into evidence in any proceeding other
than a proceeding to enforce the terms of this Agreement; provided that the Parties shall be permitted to file a copy of this
Agreement in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases and/or in connection with any filings required pursuant to any Law.

 

17.           Specific
Performance/Remedies. It is understood and agreed by the Parties that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach
of this Agreement by any Party and each non-breaching Party shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable
relief (including attorneys’ fees and costs) as a remedy of any such breach, without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of
money damages as a remedy, including an order of the Bankruptcy Court requiring any Party to comply promptly with any of its obligations
hereunder. No claim may be made by any Party or its successors or assigns against any other Party or the successors, assigns, affiliates,
directors, officers, employees, counsel, representatives, agents or attorneys-in-fact of any of them for any special, indirect, consequential,
exemplary, punitive damages or damages for lost profits in respect of any claim arising out of or related to the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement or any Restructuring Document.

    19 

     

    

18.           No
Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended to bind and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors
and permitted assigns, as applicable, and it is not the intention of the Parties to confer third-party beneficiary rights upon any other
person.

 

19.           Successors
and Assigns; Severability; Several Obligations. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the Parties. Except
as provided in Section ‎10 hereof, no rights or obligations of any Party under this Agreement may be assigned or Transferred to any
other person or Entity without the express written consent of all of the other Parties. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application
of any such provision to any person or Entity or circumstance, shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part, such invalidity
or unenforceability shall attach only to such provision or part thereof and the remaining part of such provision hereof and this Agreement
shall continue in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected
in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon any such determination of invalidity, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to
modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in a reasonably acceptable manner in
order that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible. The agreements,
representations and obligations of the Parties under this Agreement are, in all respects, several and not joint.

 

20.           Governing
Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws
of the State of New York, without giving effect to the principles of conflict of laws that would require the application of the law of
any other jurisdiction. By its execution and delivery of this Agreement, each of the Parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
agrees for itself that any legal action, suit or proceeding against it with respect to any matter under or arising out of or in connection
with this Agreement or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment rendered in any such action, suit or proceeding, may be brought
in either a state or federal court of competent jurisdiction in the State of New York (the “Chosen Courts”). By execution
and delivery of this Agreement, each of the Parties hereto hereby irrevocably accepts and submits itself to the exclusive jurisdiction
of the Chosen Courts, generally and unconditionally, with respect to any such action, suit or proceeding; provided, however,
that if the Debtors commence the Chapter 11 Cases, then the Bankruptcy Court (or court of proper appellate jurisdiction) shall be the
exclusive Chosen Court. EACH PARTY HERETO UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING
TO THIS AGREEMENT. The foregoing notwithstanding, nothing in this Section ‎20 shall affect any choice of law or venue provisions
of any of Loan Agreements, the DIP Financing Documents, the Exit Facility, or any Exit Facility Documents.

21.          Amendments

                                            provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended,
                                            modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof
                                            may not be given, without the express prior written consent of all of the Parties.

                                            as provided herein, the Restructuring Documents may be modified, amended or waived by the
                                            Debtors only with the express prior written consent of Brookfield Investor. For the avoidance
                                            of doubt, Brookfield Investor shall be permitted to withhold its consent to any modification
                                            or amendment of the Chapter 11 Restructuring Documents that (i) materially impairs the
                                            value of the Debtors once reorganized or the value of any of their respective assets, or
                                            (ii) otherwise adversely affects the rights of Brookfield Investor under the Plan or this
                                            Agreement.

 

22.          Good
Faith Cooperation; Further Assurances. The Parties agree to execute and deliver from time to time such other documents and take such
other actions as may be reasonably necessary, without payment of further consideration, in order to effectuate the Restructuring Transactions
provided for herein. The Parties shall cooperate with each other and with their respective counsel in good faith in connection with any
steps required to be taken as part of their respective obligations under this Agreement.

INTRODUCTION2

 

Hospitality
Investors Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation, and Hospitality Investors Trust Operating Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership,
hereby propose the following chapter 11 plan under section 1121(c) of the Bankruptcy Code for the resolution of the outstanding claims
against, and equity interests in, the Debtors.

 

After
extensive deliberation, the Debtors determined in their business judgment to commence pre-packaged chapter 11 proceedings pursuant to
a restructuring support agreement with the Plan Sponsor that allows the Debtors to rationalize their capital structure and provide a
sustainable path forward for the Debtors’ business.

 

The
Plan reflects the agreement reached among the Debtors and the Plan Sponsor, as set forth in the Restructuring Support Agreement (attached
to the Disclosure Statement), to reorganize via a consensual transaction that will provide for the Debtors’ emergence from these
chapter 11 proceedings under new ownership by the Plan Sponsor. The Debtors believe that the financial restructuring and the other transactions
reflected in the Plan will strengthen the Reorganized Debtors’ balance sheet and put them in position to maximize value for all
stakeholders.

 

The
Debtors are the proponents of the Plan within the meaning of section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code. Reference is made to the Disclosure
Statement (distributed contemporaneously herewith) for a discussion of the Debtors’ history, businesses, properties, projections,
the events leading up to solicitation of the Plan, and for a summary and analysis of the Plan and the treatment provided for herein.
The Debtors urge all holders of Existing Preferred Equity Interests entitled to vote on the Plan to review the Disclosure Statement and
the Plan in full before voting to accept or reject the Plan. There also are other agreements and documents that will be filed with the
Bankruptcy Court after commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases that are referenced in the Plan and the Plan Supplement as exhibits. All
such exhibits will be incorporated into and are a part of the Plan as if set forth in full herein. Subject to certain restrictions set
forth in the Plan, and the requirements set forth in section 1127 of the Bankruptcy Code, Bankruptcy Rule 3019, and Sections 14.5
and 14.7 of the Plan, the Debtors reserve the right to amend, supplement, amend and restate, modify, revoke, or withdraw the Plan prior
to the Effective Date.

 

The
Chapter 11 Cases will be consolidated for procedural purposes only and the Debtors will request that they be jointly administered pursuant
to an order of the Bankruptcy Court. The Plan constitutes a separate plan of reorganization for each of the Debtors and, notwithstanding
anything herein, the Plan may be confirmed and consummated as to each Debtor separate from, and independent of, confirmation and consummation
of the Plan as to any other Debtor. If the Plan cannot be confirmed as to one or both of the Debtors, then the Debtors, with the consent
of the Plan Sponsor, (a) may revoke the Plan as to all of the Debtors or (b) may revoke the Plan as to one of the Debtors (and any
such Debtor’s Chapter 11 Case may be converted, continued, or dismissed) and confirm the Plan as to the remaining Debtor to the
extent required without the need for re-solicitation as to any holder of a Claim against or Interest in the Debtors for which the Plan
is not so revoked. The Debtors also reserve the right to seek confirmation of the Plan pursuant to the “cram down” provisions
contained in section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to any non-accepting Class.

The
following Class of Interests is Impaired and entitled to vote on this Plan:

 

(a)          Class
5: Class 5 consists of all Existing Preferred Equity Interests in Class 5A (Existing HIT Preferred Interests), and Class 5B (Existing
HITOP Preferred Interests).

 

The
following Class of Interests is Impaired and deemed to have rejected this Plan and, therefore, is not entitled to vote on this Plan under
section 1126(g) of the Bankruptcy Code:

                                            6: Class 6 consists of all Existing HIT Common Equity Interests.

 

		4.4.	Separate
                                            Classification of Secured Claims.

 

Although
all Secured Claims have been placed in one Class for purposes of nomenclature, each Secured Claim, to the extent secured by a Lien on
Collateral different than that securing any additional Secured Claims, shall be treated as being in a separate sub-Class for the purpose
of receiving Plan Distributions.

TREATMENT OF CLAIMS AND INTERESTS

 

		5.1.	Secured
                                            Claims (Class 1).

 

(a)          Treatment:
On the Effective Date or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter in the ordinary course of business, except to the extent that a
holder of a Secured Claim already has been paid during the Chapter 11 Cases or such holder, together with the Debtors, agrees to a less
favorable treatment, in full and final satisfaction, settlement, release, and discharge of and in exchange for each Allowed Secured Claim,
each holder of an Allowed Secured Claim shall receive, at the sole option of the Debtors with the consent of the Plan Sponsor, either
(i) payment in full, in Cash, of the unpaid portion of its Allowed Secured Claim, (ii) delivery of the Collateral securing such
Allowed Secured Claim, or (iii) other treatment such that the Secured Claim shall be rendered Unimpaired pursuant to section 1124 of
the Bankruptcy Code.

 

(b)          Voting:
Class 1 is Unimpaired, and the holders of Allowed Secured Claims are conclusively presumed to have accepted the Plan pursuant to section
1126(f) of the Bankruptcy Code. Therefore, holders of Allowed Secured Claims are not entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan, and
the votes of such holders will not be solicited.

 

		5.2.	Unsecured
                                            Priority Claims (Class 2).

On the Effective Date or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter in the ordinary course of business, except to the extent that a
holder of an Allowed Unsecured Priority Claim already has been paid during the Chapter 11 Cases or such holder, together with the Debtors,
agrees to a less favorable treatment, in full and final satisfaction, settlement, release, and discharge of and in exchange for each
Allowed Unsecured Priority Claim, each holder of an Allowed Unsecured Priority Claim shall receive payment in full in Cash or as otherwise
provided in the Bankruptcy Code. Any ad valorem taxes and other taxes/fees will be extended to maximum statutory periods under, inter
alia, 11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(9)(C). Holders of such Claims will be rendered Unimpaired and as such will be deemed to have
accepted the Plan and will not be entitled to vote.

 

(b)          Voting:
Class 2 is Unimpaired, and the holders of Allowed Unsecured Priority Claims are conclusively presumed to have accepted the Plan pursuant
to section 1126(f) of the Bankruptcy Code. Therefore, holders of Allowed Unsecured Priority Claims are not entitled to vote to accept
or reject the Plan, and the votes of such holders will not be solicited.

 

		5.3.	General
                                            Unsecured Claims (Class 3).

 

(a)          Treatment:
On or as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Date, except to the extent that a holder of an Allowed General Unsecured
Claim, together with the Debtors, agrees to a less favorable treatment, in full and final satisfaction, settlement, release, and discharge
of, and in exchange for each Allowed General Unsecured Claim, each holder of an Allowed General Unsecured Claim shall (i) have its Allowed
General Unsecured Claim reinstated, and paid in full, on the later to occur of the Effective Date or when such Allowed General Unsecured
Claim becomes due in the ordinary course of the Debtors’ or Reorganized Debtors’ business operations or (ii) have its Allowed
General Unsecured Claim otherwise rendered Unimpaired pursuant to section 1124 of the Bankruptcy Code.

     19

     

    

(b)          Voting:
Class 3 is Unimpaired, and the holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims are conclusively presumed to have accepted the Plan pursuant
to section 1126(f) of the Bankruptcy Code. Therefore, holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims are not entitled to vote to accept
or reject the Plan, and the votes of such holders will not be solicited.

 

		5.4.	Intercompany
                                            Claims (Class 4).

 

(a)          Treatment:
On the Effective Date, Allowed Intercompany Claims shall be reinstated.

 

(b)          Voting:
Class 4 is Unimpaired, and the holders of Allowed Intercompany Claims are conclusively presumed to have accepted the Plan pursuant to
section 1126(f) of the Bankruptcy Code. Therefore, holders of Allowed Intercompany Claims are not entitled to vote to accept or reject
the Plan, and the votes of such holders will not be solicited.

                                            warrants, options, or other interests to acquire shares and interests) of the Existing HITOP
                                            Preferred Interests will be transferred to HIT in exchange for each holder’s Pro Rata
                                            Share, together with the holders of DIP Claims (exclusive, for the avoidance of doubt, of
                                            Claims in respect of the DIP Facility Undrawn Amount) and Class 5A Interests, of 100% of

		(ii)	Voting:
                                            Class 5B is Impaired, and the holders of Allowed Existing HITOP Preferred Interests will
                                            be entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan.

 

		5.6.	Existing
                                            HIT Common Equity Interests (Class 6).

 

(a)          Treatment:
On the Effective Date, the Allowed Existing HIT Common Equity Interests shall be cancelled, extinguished and discharged in exchange for
each holder receiving one CVR in respect of each share of the Allowed Existing HIT Common Equity Interests outstanding immediately prior
to the Effective Date and such holders shall be automatically deemed to have accepted the terms of the CVR Agreement and to be a party
thereto, in each case in accordance with the terms of the CVR Agreement.

 

Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Plan Sponsor has agreed that, on the Effective Date, any Existing HIT Common Equity Interests held by the Plan Sponsor
shall be deemed to be fully vested, and shall not entitle the Plan Sponsor to any distributions of CVRs.

 

(b)          Voting:
Class 6 is Impaired. Each holder of the Allowed Existing HIT Common Equity Interests will be conclusively deemed to have rejected the
Plan pursuant to section 1126(g) of the Bankruptcy Code and will not be entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan.

 

		5.7.	Intercompany
                                            Interests (Class 7).

 

(a)          Treatment:
On the Effective Date, the Allowed Intercompany Interests will be retained by the existing holders.

 

(b)          Voting:
Class 7 is Unimpaired, and the holders of Allowed Intercompany Interests are conclusively presumed to have accepted the Plan pursuant
to section 1126(f) of the Bankruptcy Code. In addition, there are no non-insider claimants in Class 7 to solicit. Therefore, holders
of Allowed Intercompany Interests are not entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan, and the votes of such holders will not be solicited.

A
Class of Claims that is Impaired under the Plan shall have accepted the Plan if it is accepted by at least two-thirds (2/3) in dollar
amount and more than one-half (1/2) in number of holders of the Allowed Claims in such Class that have voted on the Plan. A Class of
Interests that is Impaired under the Plan shall have accepted the Plan if it is accepted by holders of at least two-thirds in amount
of such Interests that have voted on the Plan.

		6.2.	Tabulation
                                            of Votes on a Non-Consolidated Basis.

 

All
votes on the Plan shall be tabulated on a non-consolidated basis by Class and by Debtor for the purpose of determining whether the Plan
satisfies sections 1129(a)(8) and/or (10) of the Bankruptcy Code.

 

		6.3.	Confirmation
                                            Pursuant to Section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or “Cramdown.”

 

Because
Class 6 is deemed to have rejected this Plan, the Debtors will request confirmation of this Plan, as it may be modified or amended from
time to time, under section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to such Class. Subject to Sections 14.5 and 14.7 of this Plan,
the Debtors reserve the right (i) to suspend, revoke or withdraw this Plan, (ii) to alter, amend, or modify this Plan, or, (iii) to alter,
amend, modify, revoke, or withdraw any Plan Document, to satisfy the requirements of section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, if necessary,

time waive this Section 6.4.

MEANS FOR IMPLEMENTATION

 

		7.1.	Non-Substantive
                                            Consolidation.

 

The
Plan is a joint plan that does not provide for substantive consolidation of the Debtors’ Estates, and on the Effective Date, the
Debtors’ Estates shall not be deemed to be substantively consolidated for purposes hereof. Except as specifically set forth herein,
nothing in this Plan shall constitute or be deemed to constitute an admission that any one of the Debtors is subject to or liable for
any claim against any other Debtor. Additionally, claimants holding Claims and Interests against multiple Debtors, to the extent Allowed
in each Debtor’s Chapter 11 Case, will be treated as holding a separate Claim or separate Interest, as applicable, against each
Debtor’s Estate; provided, however, that no holder of an Allowed Claim shall be entitled to receive more than payment
in full of such Allowed Claim.

 

7.2.                Continued
Corporate Existence, Vesting of Assets in the Reorganized Debtors, and Assumption of the Indemnification Agreements.

 

(a)          Except
as otherwise provided in the Plan or any agreement, instrument, or other document incorporated in the Plan or the Plan Supplement (including
the Restructuring Transactions (defined below)), on the Effective Date, each Debtor shall continue to exist after the Effective Date
as a separate corporation, limited liability company, limited partnership, or other form of entity, as the case may be, with all the
powers of a corporation, limited liability company, limited partnership, or other form of entity, as the case may be, pursuant to the
applicable law in the jurisdiction in which each applicable Debtor is incorporated or formed and pursuant to the respective charter and
by-laws (or other analogous formation documents) in effect before the Effective Date, except to the extent such charter or bylaws (or
other analogous formation documents) is amended by the Plan, the Amended Constituent Documents, or otherwise, and to the extent any such
document is amended, such document is deemed to be amended pursuant to the Plan and will be effective without any further action or approval
(other than any requisite filings required under applicable state or federal law).

     22

     

    

(b)          Except
as otherwise provided in this Plan, on and after the Effective Date, all property of the Debtors’ Estates, wherever located, including,
without limitation, all claims, rights, Causes of Action, tax attributes (including, without limitation, net operating losses) and rights
in respect thereof, and any property, wherever located, and whether acquired by the Debtors under or in connection with this Plan or
otherwise, shall vest in the Reorganized Debtors free and clear of all Claims, Liens, charges, other encumbrances and Interests. On and
after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors may operate their business and may use, acquire and dispose of property, wherever located,
and prosecute, compromise or settle any Claims (including any Administrative Expense Claims) and Causes of Action without supervision
of or approval by the Bankruptcy Court and free and clear of any restrictions of the Bankruptcy Code or the Bankruptcy Rules other than
restrictions expressly imposed by this Plan or the Confirmation Order. Without limiting the foregoing, the Reorganized Debtors may pay
the charges that each incurs on or after the Effective Date for Professional Persons’ fees, disbursements, expenses or related
support services without application to the Bankruptcy Court.

 

(c)          On
the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall assume the Indemnifications Agreements. The Indemnification Agreements shall (a) remain
in full force and effect on and after the Effective Date and (b) not be modified, reduced, or discharged without the consent of the beneficiaries
thereof.

 

		7.3.	Compromise
                                            of Controversies.

 

Pursuant
to section 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rule 9019, and as consideration for the distributions and other benefits provided
under the Plan, the provisions of the Plan constitute a good-faith compromise and settlement of all Claims and controversies resolved
under the Plan, and the entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of such compromise and
settlement under Bankruptcy Rule 9019, and the Bankruptcy Court’s findings shall constitute its determination that such compromises
and settlements are within the range of reasonableness, in the best interests of the Debtors, their Estates, their creditors, and other
parties in interest, and fair and equitable. Each provision of the Plan constitutes a part of this settlement that is non-severable from
the remaining terms of the Plan.

		7.4.	Sources
                                            of Cash for Plan Distribution.

the extent invoiced to the Debtors at least one (1) day in advance of the Effective Date and (b) after the Effective Date, any unpaid

be paid in accordance with the terms of any applicable engagement letters or other contractual arrangements without the requirement for
the filing of retention applications, fee applications, or any other applications in the Chapter 11 Cases, and without any requirement
for further notice or Bankruptcy Court review or approval, except as otherwise provided in Section 3.3 hereof with respect to Professional
Fee Claims.

 

		7.6.	Corporate
                                            Action.

 

(a)          On
the Effective Date, and subject to Section 7.13 hereof, all actions contemplated by the Plan shall be deemed authorized and approved

pursuant to Section 5.6 of the Plan, and the CVRs shall be deemed to be issued in accordance with the terms of the CVR Agreement; and
(vii) the Reorganized Debtors shall enter into the Exit Facility provided by the Exit Facility Lender pursuant to the terms of the Exit
Facility Agreement.

     24

the Effective Date, all matters provided for in the Plan involving the corporate or limited partnership structure of the Reorganized
Debtors, and any corporate or limited partnership action required by or of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors in connection with
the Plan shall be deemed to have occurred and shall be in effect, without any requirement of further action by the security holders (upon
whom the same shall be binding), directors, general partners, managers, or officers of the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors. On or (as
applicable) before the Effective Date, the appropriate officers, general partners, or managers of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors,

Transactions) in the name of and on behalf of the Reorganized Debtors, including the Exit Facility and any and all other agreements,

any further corporate or limited partnership action and without further action by the holders of Claims or Interests.

contemplated by the Plan, including, for the avoidance of doubt, whether the New HIT Common Equity Interests,
the New HITOP Interests, and the shares thereof issued are exempt from registration, settlement, and depository services.

 

		7.10.	Cancellation
                                            of Existing Securities and Agreements.

 

(a)          Except
for the purpose of evidencing a right to a Plan Distribution under the Plan and except as otherwise set forth in the Plan, including
with respect to Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases that shall be assumed by the Debtors, on the Effective Date, all agreements,
instruments, and other documents evidencing any Existing Preferred Equity Interest, the Existing HIT Common Equity Interests, or any
other Interest (other than Intercompany Interests that are not modified by the Plan) and any rights of any holder in respect thereof
shall be deemed cancelled, discharged, and of no force or effect and the obligations of the Debtors thereunder shall be deemed fully
satisfied, released, and discharged.

 

(b)          Notwithstanding
such cancellation and discharge, and subject to Section 7.13 hereof, the Existing Preferred Equity Interests and the Existing HIT
Common Equity Interests, including any agreements related thereto, shall continue in effect solely to the extent necessary to (i) allow
the holders of Allowed Existing Preferred Equity Interests and Existing HIT Common Equity Interests to receive Plan Distributions under
the Plan, and (ii) allow the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, to make post-Effective Date Plan Distributions or take
such other action pursuant to the Plan on account of the Allowed Existing Preferred Equity Interests and Allowed Existing HIT Common
Equity Interests and to otherwise exercise their rights and discharge their obligations relating to the interests of the holders of such
Interests in accordance with the Plan, provided that nothing in this section shall affect the discharge of Claims and Interests
pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, the Confirmation Order, or the Plan or result in any liability or expense to the Reorganized Debtors.

     26

     

    

(c)          Notwithstanding
the foregoing, any provision in any document, instrument, lease, or other agreement that causes or effectuates, or purports to cause
or effectuate, a default, termination, waiver, or other forfeiture of, or by, the Debtors of their interests, as a result of the cancellations,
terminations, satisfaction, releases, or discharges provided for in this section shall be deemed null and void and shall be of no force
and effect. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to cancel, terminate, release, or discharge the obligation of the Debtors or any
of their counterparties under any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease to the extent such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease has
been assumed by the Debtors pursuant to a Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court or hereunder.

(a)          On
or as soon as practicable after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall, subject to the consent of the Plan Sponsor, take such
actions as may be or become necessary or appropriate to effect any transaction described in, approved by, contemplated by, or necessary
to effectuate the Plan (collectively, the “Restructuring Transactions”), including (i) the execution and delivery

or liquidation containing terms that are consistent with the terms of the Plan and that satisfy the applicable requirements of applicable
law, (ii) the execution and delivery of appropriate instruments of transfer, assignment, assumption, or delegation of any asset, property,

including (A) making filings or recordings that may be required by applicable law, subject, in each case, to the organizational documents

The Restructuring Transactions may include a taxable transfer of all or a portion of the Debtors’ assets or Entities to one or
more newly-formed Entities (or an affiliate or subsidiary of such Entity or Entities) formed and controlled by certain holders of Claims
against or Interests in the Debtors and, in such case, the New HIT Common Equity Interests and New HITOP Interests to holders of DIP
Claims and Existing Preferred Equity Interests pursuant to the Plan may comprise stock (and/or other interests) of such Entity or Entities.

     27

     

    

(b)           Each
officer, member of the board of directors, manager, or general partner of the Debtors is (and each officer, member of the board, or manager
of the Reorganized Debtors shall be) authorized and directed to issue, execute, deliver, file, or record such contracts, securities,
instruments, releases, indentures, and other agreements or documents and take such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate,

the CVRs issued pursuant to the Plan, the CVR Agreement and any Restructuring Transaction in the name of and on behalf of the Reorganized

the documents related to the Exit Facility, as applicable, and the Bankruptcy Code. Among other things, such amendments of the Limited
Partnership Agreement shall include the elimination of any rights of the holder of the special general partnership interest in HITOP
issued in accordance with the Limited Partnership Agreement. The organizational documents, including the Amended Constituent Documents,
for the Reorganized Debtors shall, among other things: (i) authorize the issuance of the New HIT Common Equity Interests, the New HITOP
Interests, and the CVRs; and (ii) pursuant to and only to the extent required by section 1123(a)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code, include
a provision prohibiting the issuance of non-voting Equity Securities.

 

(d)           All
matters provided for herein involving the corporate or limited partnership structure of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, to the
extent applicable, or any corporate, limited partnership, or related action required by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors in connection
herewith shall be deemed to have occurred and shall be in effect, without any requirement of further action by the stockholders, members,
directors, managers, general partners, or officers of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, and with like effect as though such action
had been taken unanimously by the stockholders, members, directors, managers, general partners, or officers, as applicable, of the Debtors
or the Reorganized Debtors.

open regardless of whether the applicable matter is against HIT or HITOP. Nothing in the Plan shall authorize the closing of any case
effective as of a date that precedes the date any such order is entered. Any request for retroactive relief shall be made on motion served
on the U.S. Trustee, and the Bankruptcy Court shall rule on such request after notice and a hearing. Upon the filing of a motion to close

		8.1.	CVR
                                            Payments.

 

Holders
of CVRs will be entitled to receive distributions subject to the terms and conditions of the CVR Agreement upon certain Monetization
Events or upon the Maturity Date (defined below). A full description of such terms and conditions, including the “waterfall”
applicable to all distributions, can be found in the CVR Agreement, attached hereto as Exhibit A.

     30

     

    

If
and when a payment obligation to the holders of CVRs is triggered pursuant to the CVR Agreement, the Reorganized Debtors shall make payments
to the holders of CVRs reasonably promptly following the applicable triggering event for such payment, in accordance with the terms and
conditions of the CVR Agreement.

 

Among
other limitations on the circumstances under which a payment would be made to holders of the CVRs, no payment will be made to holders
of CVRs if the Adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the CVR Agreement) of the applicable assets in the CVR Asset Pool does not exceed certain
specified hurdles.

 

The
maximum amount of payments made to holders of CVRs will not be permitted to exceed $6.00 per CVR.

 

		8.2.	Maturity
                                            Date of CVRs.

 

Subject
to the conditions and limitations set forth in the CVR Agreement, the holders of CVRs may have the right to receive payments in respect
of the CVRs on the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Maturity Date”), which may be extended to the seventh
anniversary of the Effective Date by the board directors of the Reorganized Company, in its sole discretion. The right to receive payments
in respect of CVRs may expire sooner if certain payments have already been made in respect of the CVRs, as set forth in the CVR Agreement.

 

		8.3.	Securities
                                            Law Considerations.

 

The
CVRs are not securities and are non-transferable except for certain limited permitted transfers as set forth in the CVR Agreement. The
CVRs are not subject to registration under the Securities Laws or any other applicable law.

 

		8.4.	Certain
                                            Covenants.

 

The
Reorganized Debtors shall not, and shall not cause or permit their direct or indirect subsidiaries to, amend their constituent documents
or enter into or undergo any consolidation, merger, or similar transaction, reorganization, transfer of assets, dissolution, issue or
sale of securities, or take any other voluntary action, in each case, for the primary purpose of causing the requirements for payment
of the CVRs to not be satisfied.

 

Without
the consent of the Independent Director(s), the Reorganized Debtors shall not, and shall cause their direct or indirect subsidiaries
to not, take any action or enter into any agreement that is disproportionately adverse to the economic interests of the holders of the
CVRs when compared to the holders of New HIT Common Equity Interest.

 

The
Reorganized Debtors shall not, and shall not cause or permit their direct or indirect subsidiaries to, enter into or engage in certain
transactions with an affiliate or a related party.

     31

     

    

		8.5.	Reporting.

 

The
Reorganized Debtors shall make information available periodically with respect to the CVR Asset Pool on a confidential website only accessible
to holders of CVRs and the Plan Sponsor in accordance with the terms of the CVR Agreement.

 

		8.6.	Inconsistency
                                            Between Plan and CVR Agreement.

 

The
provisions of this Article VIII are subject to, and qualified in all respects, by the specific terms and conditions set forth in the
CVR Agreement. In the event of an inconsistency between this Plan and the CVR Agreement, the terms and conditions of the CVR Agreement
shall govern.

		9.1.	Plan
                                            Distributions Generally.

 

One
or more Disbursing Agents shall make all Plan Distributions under the Plan to the appropriate holders of Claims and Interests in accordance
with the terms of the Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, the Reorganized Debtors may, but are not required to, serve as the Disbursing
Agent under the Plan.

 

		9.2.	Distribution
                                            Record Date.

or their respective agents, shall be deemed closed, and there shall be no further changes in the record holders of any of the Interests.
The Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors shall have no obligation to recognize any transfer of Interests occurring on or after the Effective
Date. In addition, with respect to payment of any cure amounts owed pursuant to Bankruptcy Code section 365(b) or disputes over any cure
amounts, neither the Debtors nor the Disbursing Agent shall have any obligation to recognize or deal with any party other than the non-Debtor
party to the applicable Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease as of the Effective Date, even if such non-Debtor party has sold, assigned,
or otherwise transferred its Claim for a cure amount.

 

		9.3.	Date
                                            of Plan Distributions.

 

Except

or as otherwise determined in accordance with the Plan, or as soon as practicable thereafter; provided that the Reorganized Debtors
may implement periodic Plan Distribution dates to the extent they determine them to be appropriate.

     32

     

    

		9.4.	Disbursing
                                            Agent.

 

All
Plan Distributions shall be made by the Disbursing Agent, on behalf of the applicable Debtor (unless otherwise provided herein), on or
after the Effective Date or as otherwise provided herein. The Disbursing Agent shall not be required to give any bond or surety or other
security for the performance of its duties, and all reasonable and documented fees and expenses incurred by such Disbursing Agent directly
related to Plan Distributions hereunder shall be reimbursed by the Reorganized Debtors. The Reorganized Debtors shall cooperate in good
faith with the applicable Disbursing Agent (if other than the Reorganized Debtors) to comply with the reporting and withholding requirements
outlined in the Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, the Disbursing Agent shall not have any responsibilities with respect to the CVRs.

 

		9.5.	Rights
                                            and Powers of Disbursing Agent.

 

(a)          From
and after the Effective Date, the Disbursing Agent, solely in its capacity as Disbursing Agent, shall be exculpated by all Entities,
including, without limitation, holders of Claims against and Interests in the Debtors and other parties in interest, from any and all
Claims, Causes of Action, and other assertions of liability arising out of the discharge of the powers and duties conferred upon such
Disbursing Agent by the Plan or any order of the Bankruptcy Court entered pursuant to or in furtherance of the Plan, or applicable law,
except for actions or omissions to act arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct, fraud, malpractice, criminal conduct,
or ultra vires acts of such Disbursing Agent. No holder of a Claim or Interest or other party in interest shall have or pursue any claim
or Cause of Action against the Disbursing Agent, solely in its capacity as Disbursing Agent, for making payments in accordance with the
Plan or for implementing provisions of the Plan, except for actions or omissions to act arising out of the gross negligence or willful
misconduct, fraud, malpractice, criminal conduct, or ultra vires acts of such Disbursing Agent.

 

(b)          The
Disbursing Agent shall be empowered to (i) effect all actions and execute all agreements, instruments, and other documents necessary
to perform its duties hereunder, (ii) make all Plan Distributions contemplated hereby, and (iii) exercise such other powers as may
be vested in the Disbursing Agent by order of the Bankruptcy Court, pursuant to the Plan, or as deemed by the Disbursing Agent to be
necessary and proper to implement the provisions hereof.

 

		9.6.	Expenses
                                            of Disbursing Agent.

 

Except
as otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court, any reasonable and documented fees and expenses incurred by the Disbursing Agent acting
in such capacity (including reasonable documented attorneys’ fees and expenses) on or after the Effective Date shall be paid in
Cash by the Reorganized Debtors in the ordinary course of business.

 

		9.7.	Delivery
                                            of Plan Distributions.

 

All
Plan Distributions to any holder of an Allowed Claim as and when required by the Plan shall be made by the Disbursing Agent. In the event
that any Plan Distribution to any holder is returned as undeliverable, no further Plan Distributions shall be made to such holder unless
and until the Disbursing Agent is notified in writing of such holder’s then-current address, at which time all currently due, missed
Plan Distributions shall be made to such holder as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter without interest. Nothing herein shall require
the Disbursing Agent to attempt to locate holders of undeliverable Plan Distributions and, if located, assist such holders in complying
with this Section 9.7.

     33

     

    

		9.8.	Proofs
                                            of Claim; Disputed Claims Process.

 

Notwithstanding
section 502(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, and in light of the Unimpaired status of Classes 1, 2, 3, 4, and 7 under the Plan, except as provided
in Section 10.3 with respect to rejection damage Claims, holders of Claims or Interests need not file Proofs of Claim, and the Reorganized
Debtors and the holders of Claims shall determine, adjudicate, and resolve any disputes over the validity and amounts of such Claims
in the ordinary course of business as if the Chapter 11 Cases had not been commenced except that (unless expressly waived pursuant to
the Plan) the Allowed amount of such Claims shall be subject to the limitations or maximum amounts permitted by the Bankruptcy Code,
including sections 502 and 503 of the Bankruptcy Code, to the extent applicable.

 

Upon
the Effective Date, all Proofs of Claim filed against the Debtors, regardless of the time of filing, and including Claims filed after
the Effective Date, shall be deemed withdrawn, other than as provided below, and such creditor that Files a Proof of Claim with the Bankruptcy
Court retains any right it may have to pursue remedies in a forum other than the Bankruptcy Court in accordance with applicable. Notwithstanding
anything in this Section 9.8, (a) all Claims against the Debtors that result from the Debtors’ rejection of an Executory Contract
or Unexpired Lease, (b) disputes regarding the amount of any cure pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, and (c) Claims that
the Debtors seek to have determined by the Bankruptcy Court, shall in all cases be determined by the Bankruptcy Court. From and after
the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors may satisfy, dispute, settle, or otherwise compromise any Claim without approval of the Bankruptcy
Court in the ordinary course of business.

 

		9.9.	Postpetition
                                            Interest.

 

Except
as otherwise specifically provided for in the Plan, the Confirmation Order, or another order of the Bankruptcy Court or required by the
Bankruptcy Code, or as otherwise agreed by the Reorganized Debtors, interest shall not accrue or be paid on any Claims on or after the
Petition Date.

 

		9.10.	Unclaimed
                                            Property.

 

Undeliverable
Plan Distributions or unclaimed Plan Distributions shall remain in the possession of the Reorganized Debtors until such time as a Plan
Distribution becomes deliverable or the holder accepts Plan Distribution, or such Plan Distribution reverts back to the Reorganized Debtors,
and shall not be supplemented with any interest, dividends, or other accruals of any kind. Such Plan Distributions shall be deemed unclaimed
property under section 347(b) of the Bankruptcy Code at the expiration of one hundred and eighty (180) days from the date of the attempted
Plan Distribution. After such date, all unclaimed property or interest in property shall revert to the Reorganized Debtors, and the Claim
of any other holder to such property or interest in property shall be discharged and forever barred. The Reorganized Debtors and the
Disbursing Agent shall have no obligation to attempt to locate any holder of an Allowed Claim other than by reviewing the Debtors’
books and records and filings with the Bankruptcy Court.

days after the date of issuance thereof. Thereafter, the amount represented by such voided check shall irrevocably revert to the Reorganized
Debtors, and any Claim in respect of such voided check shall be discharged and forever barred, notwithstanding any federal or state escheat
laws to the contrary. Requests for re-issuance of any check shall be made to the Disbursing Agent by the holder of the Allowed Claim
to whom such check was originally issued.

 

		9.12.	Manner
                                            of Payment under Plan.

to be made hereunder may be made by a check or wire transfer or as otherwise required or provided in applicable agreements or customary
practices of the Debtors.

Plan shall be in complete and final satisfaction, settlement, and discharge of and exchange for such Allowed Claims.

 

		9.14.	Setoffs.

 

Except
as otherwise expressly provided for herein, each Reorganized Debtor, pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code (including section 553 of the
Bankruptcy Code), applicable non-bankruptcy law, or as may be agreed to by the holder of a Claim, may set off against any Allowed Claim
and the distributions to be made pursuant to the Plan on account of such Allowed Claim (before any distribution is made on account of
such Allowed Claim), any claims, rights, and Causes of Action of any nature that such Debtor or Reorganized Debtor, as applicable, may
hold against the holder of such Allowed Claim, to the extent such Claims, rights, or Causes of Action against such holder have not been
otherwise compromised or settled on or prior to the Effective Date (whether pursuant to the Plan or otherwise); provided, however,
that neither the failure to effect such a setoff nor the allowance of any Claim pursuant to the Plan shall constitute a waiver or release
by such Reorganized Debtor of any such Claims, rights, and Causes of Action that such Reorganized Debtor may possess against such holder.
In no event shall any holder of Claims be entitled to set off any such Claim against any Claim, right, or Cause of Action of the Debtor
or Reorganized Debtor (as applicable), unless such holder has filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court requesting the authority to perform
such setoff on or before the Confirmation Date, and notwithstanding any indication in any Proof of Claim or otherwise that such holder
asserts, has, or intends to preserve any right of setoff pursuant to section 553 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise.

		9.15.	Withholding
                                            and Reporting Requirements.

 

(a)          Withholding
Rights. In connection with the Plan, any party issuing any instrument or making any Plan Distribution described in the Plan shall
comply with all applicable withholding and reporting requirements imposed by any federal, state, or local taxing authority, and all Plan
Distributions pursuant to the Plan and all related agreements shall be subject to any such withholding or reporting requirements. In
the case of a non-Cash Plan Distribution that is subject to withholding, the distributing party may withhold an appropriate portion of
such distributed property and either (i) sell such withheld property to generate Cash necessary to pay the withholding tax (or reimburse
the distributing party for any advanced payment of the withholding tax), or (ii) pay the withholding tax using its own funds and
retain such withheld property. Any amounts withheld pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be deemed to have been distributed to and
received by the applicable recipient for all purposes of the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Entity that receives a Plan Distribution
pursuant to the Plan shall have responsibility for any taxes imposed by any Governmental Unit, including, without limitation, income,
withholding, and other taxes, on account of such Plan Distribution. Any party issuing any instrument or making any Plan Distribution
pursuant to the Plan has the right, but not the obligation, to not make a Plan Distribution until such holder has made arrangements reasonably
satisfactory to such issuing or disbursing party for payment of any such tax obligations.

 

(b)          Forms.
Any party entitled to receive any property as an issuance or Plan Distribution under the Plan shall, upon request, deliver to the Disbursing
Agent or such other Person designated by the Reorganized Debtors (which Person shall subsequently deliver to the Disbursing Agent any
applicable IRS Form W-8 or Form W-9 received) an appropriate Form W-9 or (if the payee is a foreign Person) Form W-8 and any other forms
or documents reasonably requested by any Reorganized Debtor to reduce or eliminate any withholding required by any federal, state, or
local taxing authority.

EXECUTORY CONTRACTS AND UNEXPIRED LEASES

 

		10.1.	General
                                            Treatment; Assumption and Rejection of Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases.

 

(a)          As
of and subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date and the payment of any applicable cure amounts owed pursuant to Bankruptcy Code
section 365(b), all Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases to which any of the Debtors are parties, and which have not expired or terminated
by their own terms on or prior to the Effective Date, including—subject to Section 7.13—Employee Arrangements, shall be deemed
assumed by the Debtors, without the need for any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court, unless such
Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease: (1) was previously assumed or rejected previously by the Debtors; (2) was previously expired or
terminated pursuant to its own terms, (3) is the subject of a motion to reject filed on or before the Effective Date, or (4) is identified
on the Schedule of Rejected Contracts and Leases.

     36

     

    

(b)          Subject
to the occurrence of the Effective Date, entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute approval of the assumptions or assumptions
and assignments provided for in the Plan pursuant to sections 365(a) and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code and a determination by the Bankruptcy
Court that the Reorganized Debtors have provided adequate assurance of future performance under each assumed Executory Contract and Unexpired
Lease. Each Executory Contract and Unexpired Lease assumed or assumed and assigned pursuant to the Plan shall vest in and be fully enforceable
by the applicable Reorganized Debtor in accordance with its terms, except as modified by the provisions of the Plan, any order of the
Bankruptcy Court authorizing and providing for its assumption, or applicable law; provided that the assumption of Executory Contracts
and Unexpired Leases hereunder may include the assignment of certain of such contracts to affiliates.

 

(c)          Except
as otherwise provided herein or agreed to by the Debtors and the applicable counterparty, each assumed Executory Contract or Unexpired
Lease shall include all modifications, amendments, supplements, restatements, or other agreements related thereto, and all rights related
thereto, if any, including all easements, licenses, permits, rights, privileges, immunities, options, rights of first refusal, and any
other interests. To the maximum extent permitted by law, to the extent any provision in any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease assumed
pursuant to the Plan restricts or prevents, or purports to restrict or prevent, or is breached or deemed breached by, the assumption
of such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease (including any “change of control,” “ipso facto,” bankruptcy default
or similar provisions), then such provision shall be unenforceable or deemed modified such that the transactions contemplated by the
Plan shall not entitle the non-Debtor party thereto to terminate or modify such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease or to exercise
any other default-related rights with respect thereto. Modifications, amendments, supplements, and restatements to prepetition Executory
Contracts and Unexpired Leases that have been executed by the Debtors during the Chapter 11 Cases shall not be deemed to alter the prepetition
nature of the Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease or the validity, priority, or amount of any Claims that may arise in connection therewith.

 

		10.2.	Cure
                                            of Defaults for Assumed Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases.

 

The
Reorganized Debtors shall satisfy any monetary defaults under any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease to be assumed hereunder, to the
extent required by section 365(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, upon assumption thereof in the ordinary course of business. If a counterparty
to any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease believes any amounts are due as a result of such Debtor’s monetary default thereunder,
it shall assert a Cure Claim against the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, in the ordinary course of business, subject to
all defenses the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors may have with respect to such Cure Claim. Any Cure Claim shall be deemed fully satisfied,
released and discharged upon payment by the Reorganized Debtors of the applicable Cure Claim; provided, that nothing herein shall prevent
the Reorganized Debtors from paying any Cure Claim despite the failure of the relevant counterparty to assert or file such request for
payment of such Cure Claim. The Debtors, with the consent of the Plan Sponsor, or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, may settle
any Cure Claims without any further notice to or action, order or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

     37

     

    

Any
objection to the assumption of an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease under the Plan, including an objection regarding the ability
of the Reorganized Debtors to provide “adequate assurance of future performance” (within the meaning of section 365 of the
Bankruptcy Code), must be filed with the Bankruptcy Court on or before the deadline set by the Bankruptcy Court for objecting to Confirmation
of the Plan, or such other deadline as may have been established by order of the Bankruptcy Court. To the extent any such objection is
not determined by the Bankruptcy Court at the Combined Hearing, such objection may be heard and determined at a subsequent hearing. Any
counterparty to an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease that does not timely object to the proposed assumption of any Executory Contract
or Unexpired Lease by the deadline established by the Bankruptcy Court will be deemed to have consented to such assumption.

 

In
the event of a dispute regarding (a) the amount of any Cure Claim, (b) the ability of the Reorganized Debtors to provide “adequate
assurance of future performance” (within the meaning of section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code) under the Executory Contract or Unexpired
Lease to be assumed or (c) any other matter pertaining to assumption or the payment of Cure Claims required by section 365(b)(1) of the
Bankruptcy Code, payment of a Cure Claim, if any, shall occur as soon as reasonably practicable after entry of a Final Order or Final
Orders resolving such dispute and approving such assumption. The Debtors (with the consent of the Plan Sponsor), or Reorganized Debtors,
as applicable, reserve the right at any time to move to reject any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease prior to the Effective Date
based upon the existence of any unresolved dispute or upon a resolution of such dispute that is unfavorable to the Debtors or Reorganized
Debtors.

 

Assumption
of any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease pursuant to the Plan or otherwise, and full payment of any applicable Cure Claims pursuant
to the Plan, shall result in the full release and satisfaction of any Claims or defaults, whether monetary or non-monetary, including
defaults of provisions restricting the change in control or ownership interest composition or other bankruptcy-related defaults, arising
under any assumed Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease at any time prior to the date that the Reorganized Debtors assume such Executory
Contract or Unexpired Lease.

 

		10.3.	Rejection
                                            of Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases.

 

Unless
otherwise provided in the Plan or the Plan Supplement, each Executory Contract and Unexpired Lease, if any, set forth on the Schedule
of Rejected Contracts and Leases (which, if any, shall be included in the Plan Supplement) shall be deemed rejected, without the need
for any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court, as of the Effective Date under sections 365 and 1123
of the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors reserve the right to alter, amend, modify, or supplement the Schedule of Rejected Contracts and Leases
at any time through and including the Effective Date.

 

Proofs
of claim with respect to Claims arising from the rejection of Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases, if any, must be filed with the
Bankruptcy Court within 30 days after the Effective Date. Any Claims arising from the rejection of an Executory Contract or Unexpired
Lease not filed within such time will be automatically disallowed, forever barred from assertion, and shall not be enforceable against,
as applicable, the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, the Estate or property of the foregoing parties, without the need for any objection
by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, or further notice to, or action, order or approval of the Bankruptcy Court
or any other Entity, and any Claim arising out of the rejection of the Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease shall be deemed fully satisfied,
released and discharged, notwithstanding anything in a Proof of Claim to the contrary. Claims arising from the rejection of the Executory
Contracts or Unexpired Leases to which any Debtor is a party shall be classified as general unsecured claims, subject to any applicable
limitation or defense under the Bankruptcy Code and applicable law.

     38

     

    

		10.4.	Survival
                                            of the Debtors’ Indemnification Obligations and Guarantees.

 

(a)          Any
obligations of the Debtors pursuant to their corporate charters, bylaws, Limited Partnership Agreement, or other organizational documents
to indemnify current and former officers, directors, agents, and/or employees with respect to all present and future actions, suits,
and proceedings against the Debtors or such directors, officers, agents, and/or employees, based upon any act or omission for or on behalf
of the Debtors, shall not be discharged or impaired by confirmation of the Plan. Any Claim based on such obligations shall not be a Disputed
Claim, Disallowed Claim, or subject to any objection in either case by reason of section 502(e)(1)(B) of the Bankruptcy Code. None of
the Reorganized Debtors shall amend and/or restate their respective governance documents before or after the Effective Date to terminate
or adversely affect any obligations to provide such indemnification rights or such directors’, officers’, employees’,
or agents’ indemnification rights.

 

(b)          In
addition, after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall not terminate or otherwise reduce the coverage under the D&O Liability
Insurance Policies in effect or purchased as of the Petition Date, and all members, managers, directors, and officers who served in such
capacity at any time before the Effective Date shall be entitled to the full benefits of any such policy for the full term of such policy
regardless of whether such members, managers, directors, and/or officers remain in such positions after the Effective Date, in each case,
to the extent set forth in such policies.

 

(c)          On
the Effective Date, all guarantees, indemnities, or other credit support provided by a Debtor in support of the primary obligations of
another Debtor or any Non-Debtor Subsidiary shall be Unimpaired by the Plan and reinstated to their position immediately prior to the
Petition Date.

 

		10.5.	Severance
                                            Contracts and Programs.

 

Except
as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan, a prior order of the Bankruptcy Court or to the extent subject to a motion pending before
the Bankruptcy Court as of the Effective Date, all severance benefit plans and policies for former employees (including any severance
contracts between one or more of the Debtors and a former employee that were in effect as of or after the Petition Date), to the extent
contemplated by the DIP Budget (as defined in the Interim DIP Order and Final DIP Order), are treated as Executory Contracts under the
Plan and on the Effective Date shall be assumed pursuant to the provisions of sections 365 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code.

     39

     

    

		10.6.	Insurance
                                            Policies.

 

All
insurance policies (including all directors’ and officers’ insurance policies and tail or run-off coverage liability insurance)
pursuant to which any Debtor has any rights or obligations in effect as of the date of the Confirmation Order shall be deemed and treated
as Executory Contracts pursuant to the Plan and shall be assumed by the respective Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors and shall continue
in full force and effect thereafter in accordance with their respective terms. All other insurance policies shall vest in the Reorganized
Debtors.

 

		10.7.	Intellectual
                                            Property Licenses and Agreements.

 

All
intellectual property contracts, licenses, royalties, or other similar agreements to which the Debtors have any rights or obligations
in effect as of the date of the Confirmation Order shall be deemed and treated as Executory Contracts pursuant to the Plan and shall
be assumed by the respective Debtors and shall continue in full force and effect unless any such intellectual property contract, license,
royalty, or other similar agreement otherwise is specifically rejected pursuant to a separate order of the Bankruptcy Court or is the
subject of a separate rejection motion filed by the Debtors. Unless otherwise noted hereunder, all other intellectual property contracts,
licenses, royalties, or other similar agreements shall vest in the Reorganized Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors may take all actions
as may be necessary or appropriate to ensure such vesting as contemplated herein.

 

		10.8.	Modifications,
                                            Amendments, Supplements, Restatements, or Other Agreements.

 

Unless
otherwise provided herein or by separate order of the Bankruptcy Court, each Executory Contract and Unexpired Lease that is assumed shall
include any and all modifications, amendments, supplements, restatements, or other agreements made directly or indirectly by any agreement,
instrument, or other document that in any manner affects such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease, without regard to whether such agreement,
instrument, or other document is listed in any notice of assumed contracts.

 

		10.9.	Reservation
                                            of Rights.

 

(a)          Neither
the exclusion nor inclusion of any contract or lease by the Debtors on any exhibit, schedule, or other annex to this Plan or in the Plan
Supplement, nor anything contained in the Plan, will constitute an admission by the Debtors that any such contract or lease is or is
not in fact an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease or that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors or their respective affiliates have
any liability thereunder.

 

(b)          Except
as otherwise provided in this Plan, nothing in this Plan shall waive, excuse, limit, diminish, or otherwise alter any of the defenses,
claims, Causes of Action, or other rights of the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors under any executory or non-Executory Contract or
any unexpired or expired lease.

 

(c)          Nothing
in this Plan shall increase, augment, or add to any of the duties, obligations, responsibilities, or liabilities of the Debtors or the
Reorganized Debtors under any executory or non-Executory Contract or any unexpired or expired lease.

     40

     

    

(d)          If
there is a dispute regarding whether a contract or lease is or was executory or unexpired at the time of assumption or rejection under
this Plan, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall have 60 days following entry of a Final Order resolving such
dispute to alter their treatment of such contract or lease by filing a notice indicating such altered treatment.

                                            by Debtors.

 

Pursuant
to section 1123(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, and except as otherwise specifically provided in the Plan or the Confirmation Order,
on and after the Effective Date, for good and valuable consideration, including their cooperation and contributions to the Chapter 11
Cases, the Released Parties shall be deemed released and discharged by the Debtors and their Estates from any and all Claims, obligations,
debts, rights, suits, damages, Causes of Action, remedies, and liabilities whatsoever, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen,
asserted or unasserted, existing, or hereinafter arising, in law, equity, or otherwise, whether for tort, fraud, contract, violations
of federal or state laws, or otherwise, including Avoidance Actions, those Causes of Action based on veil piercing or alter-ego theories
of liability, contribution, indemnification, joint liability, or otherwise that the Debtors, their Estates or their affiliates would
have been legally entitled to assert in their own right (whether individually or collectively) or on behalf of the holder of any Claim
or Interest or other Entity or that any holder of a Claim or Interest or other Entity would have been legally entitled to assert derivatively
for or on behalf of the Debtors, or their Estates, based on, relating to or in any manner arising from, in whole or in part, the Debtors,
their Estates, the purchase, sale, or rescission of the purchase or sale of any security of the Debtors, the subject matter of, or the
transactions or events giving rise to, any Claim or Interest that is treated in the Plan, the business or contractual arrangements between
the Debtors and any Released Party, excluding any assumed Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease, the restructuring of Claims and Interests
prior to or in the Chapter 11 Cases, the negotiation, formulation, or preparation of the Plan, the Disclosure Statement, the Restructuring
Support Agreement, the Plan Supplement, the Exit Facility Agreement, the DIP Credit Agreement and other DIP Loan Documents, the Chapter
11 Cases, or, in each case, related agreements, instruments, or other documents, or upon any other act or omission, transaction, agreement,
event, or other occurrence taking place on or before the Effective Date, other than claims or liabilities arising out of or relating
to any act or omission of a Released Party that is determined in a Final Order to have constituted willful misconduct (including, without
limitation, actual fraud) or gross negligence; provided, that if any Released Party directly or indirectly brings or asserts any
Claim or Cause of Action that has been released or is contemplated to be released pursuant to the Plan in any way arising out of or related
to any document or transaction that was in existence prior to the Effective Date against any other Released Party, and such Released
Party does not abandon such Claim or Cause of Action upon request, then the release set forth in the Plan shall automatically and retroactively
be null and void ab initio with respect to the Released Party bringing or asserting such Claim or Cause of Action; provided,
further that the immediately preceding proviso shall not apply to (i) any action by a Released Party in the Bankruptcy Court
(or any other court determined to have competent jurisdiction), including any appeal therefrom, to prosecute the amount, priority, or
secured status of any prepetition or ordinary course administrative Claim against the Debtors or (ii) any release or indemnification
provided for in any settlement or granted under any other court order; provided that, in the case of (i) and (ii), the Debtors
shall retain all defenses related to any such action. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the foregoing release
shall not release any obligation of any party under the Plan or any document, instrument, or agreement executed to implement the Plan.

 

Entry
of the Confirmation Order shall constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s approval, pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 9019, of the releases described
in the Plan, which includes by reference each of the related provisions and definitions contained in the Plan, and further, shall constitute
its finding that each release described in the Plan is:  (i) in exchange for the good and valuable consideration provided by
the Released Parties, a good faith settlement and compromise of such Claims; (ii) in the best interests of the Debtors and all holders
of Interests and Claims; (iii) fair, equitable and reasonable; (iv) given and made after due notice and opportunity for hearing;
and (v) a bar to the Debtors asserting any claim, Cause of Action or liability related thereto, of any kind whatsoever, against
any of the Released Parties or their property.

		(b)	Releases
                                            by Releasing Parties.

 

Except
as otherwise specifically provided in the Plan or the Confirmation Order, on and after the Effective Date, for good and valuable consideration,
including the obligations of the Debtors under the Plan, the Plan Consideration and other contracts, instruments, releases, agreements,
or documents executed and delivered in connection with this Plan, each Releasing Party shall be deemed to have consented to the Plan
and the restructuring embodied herein for all purposes, and shall be deemed to have conclusively, absolutely, unconditionally, irrevocably,
and forever released and discharged the Released Parties from any and all Claims, Interests, obligations, debts, rights, suits, damages,
Causes of Action, remedies, and liabilities whatsoever, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, asserted or unasserted, existing
or hereinafter arising, in law, equity, or otherwise, whether for tort, fraud, contract, violations of federal or state laws, or otherwise,
including Avoidance Actions, those Causes of Action based on veil piercing or alter-ego theories of liability, contribution, indemnification,
joint liability, or otherwise that such Releasing Party would have been legally entitled to assert (whether individually or collectively),
based on, relating to or in any manner arising from, in whole or in part, the Debtors, the Estates, the liquidation, the Chapter 11 Cases,
the purchase, sale, or rescission of the purchase or sale of any security of the Debtors, the subject matter of, or the transactions
or events giving rise to, any Claim or Interest that is treated in the Plan, the business or contractual arrangements between the Debtors
and any Releasing Party, excluding any assumed Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease, the restructuring of Claims and Interests prior
to or in the Chapter 11 Cases, the negotiation, formulation, or preparation of the Plan, the Disclosure Statement, the Restructuring
Support Agreement, the Plan Supplement, the DIP Credit Agreement and other DIP Loan Documents, the Exit Facility Agreement, the Existing
Preferred Equity Interests, the Existing HIT Common Equity Interests, the New HIT Common Equity Interests, the New HITOP Interests, the
Amended Constituent Documents, or, in each case, related agreements, instruments, or other documents, or upon any other act or omission,
transaction, agreement, event, or other occurrence taking place on or before the Effective Date, other than claims or liabilities arising
out of or relating to any act or omission of a Released Party that is determined in a Final Order to have constituted willful misconduct
(including, without limitation, actual fraud) or gross negligence; provided that any holder of a Claim or Interest that objects to the
releases contained in the Plan shall not receive the benefit of the releases set forth in the Plan (even if for any reason otherwise
entitled). Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the foregoing release shall not release any obligation
of any party (i) under the Plan or any document, instrument, or agreement executed to implement the Plan, (ii) under any Executory Contract
or Unexpired Lease assumed under the Plan, or (iii) any contract or lease between a Non-Debtor Subsidiary and a Releasing Party.

     46

     

    

Entry
of the Confirmation Order shall constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s approval, pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 9019, of the releases described
in the Plan, which includes by reference each of the related provisions and definitions contained in the Plan, and further, shall constitute
its finding that each release described in the Plan is:  (i) in exchange for the good and valuable consideration provided by
the Released Parties, a good faith settlement and compromise of such Claims; (ii) in the best interests of the Debtors and all holders
of Interests and Claims; (iii) fair, equitable, and reasonable; and (iv) given and made after due notice and opportunity for
hearing.

 

		(c)	Exculpation.

 

On
the Effective Date, except as otherwise provided in the Plan or the Confirmation Order, for good and valuable consideration, to the maximum
extent permissible under applicable law, none of the Exculpated Parties shall have or incur any liability to any holder of any Claim
or Interest or any other Person for any act or omission in connection with, or arising out of the Debtors’ restructuring, including
the negotiation, implementation and execution of the Plan, this Disclosure Statement, the Restructuring Support Agreement, the Plan Supplement,
the Chapter 11 Cases, the solicitation of votes for and the pursuit of confirmation of this Plan, the consummation of this Plan, the
administration of this Plan, or the property to be distributed under this Plan, including all documents ancillary thereto, all decisions,
actions, inactions, and alleged negligence or misconduct relating thereto and all activities leading to the promulgation and confirmation
of this Plan except for gross negligence or willful misconduct, each as determined by a Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court. For purposes
of the foregoing, it is expressly understood that any act or omission effected with the approval of the Bankruptcy Court conclusively
will be deemed not to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct unless the approval of the Bankruptcy Court was obtained by fraud
or misrepresentation, and in all respects, the applicable Persons shall be entitled to rely on the advice of counsel with respect to
their duties and responsibilities under, or in connection with, the Chapter 11 Cases, the Plan, and administration thereof. The Exculpated
Parties have, and upon confirmation of the Plan shall be deemed to have, participated in good faith and in compliance with the applicable
provisions of the Bankruptcy Code with regard to the distributions of the securities pursuant to the Plan and, therefore, are not, and
on account of such distributions shall not be, liable at any time for the violation of any applicable law, rule or regulation governing
the solicitation of acceptances or rejections of the Plan or such distributions made pursuant to the Plan. 

 

		(d)	Retention
                                            of Causes of Action/Reservation of Rights.

 

Except
as expressly provided in the Plan or in the Confirmation Order, nothing contained in the Plan or the Confirmation Order shall be deemed
to be a waiver or relinquishment of any rights or Causes of Action that the Debtors or the Estates may have, or that the Debtors may
choose to assert on behalf of their Estates, under any provision of the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable non-bankruptcy law, including,
without limitation, (i) any and all Causes of Action or claims against any Person or Entity, to the extent such Person or Entity asserts
a crossclaim, counterclaim, and/or claim for setoff that seeks affirmative relief against the Debtors, their officers, directors or representatives
or (ii) the turnover of any property of the Estates to the Debtors.

     47

     

    

Except
as expressly provided in the Plan or in the Confirmation Order, nothing contained in the Plan or the Confirmation Order shall be deemed
to be a waiver or relinquishment of any rights or Causes of Action that the Debtors had immediately prior to the Petition Date or the
Effective Date against or regarding any Claim left Unimpaired by the Plan. The Debtors shall have, retain, reserve and be entitled to
commence, assert and pursue all such rights and Causes of Action as fully as if the Chapter 11 Cases had not been commenced, and all
of the Debtors’ legal and equitable rights respecting any Claim left Unimpaired by the Plan may be asserted after the Confirmation
Date to the same extent as if the Chapter 11 Cases had not been commenced.

 

Except
as expressly provided in the Plan or in the Confirmation Order, nothing contained in the Plan or the Confirmation Order shall be deemed
to release any post-Effective Date obligations of any party under the Plan, or any document, instrument or agreement (including those
set forth in the Plan Supplement) executed to implement the Plan.

 

		(e)	Solicitation
                                            of Plan.

 

As
of and subject to the occurrence of the Confirmation Date: (a) the Debtors shall be deemed to have solicited acceptances of the
Plan in good faith and in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including, without limitation, sections 1125(a),
(e), and (g) of the Bankruptcy Code, and any applicable non-bankruptcy law, rule, or regulation governing the adequacy of disclosure
in connection with such solicitation, and (b) the Debtors and their respective directors, officers, employees, affiliates, agents,
financial advisors, investment bankers, professionals, accountants, and attorneys shall be deemed to have participated in good faith
and in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code in the offer and issuance of any securities under the Plan, and
therefore are not, and on account of such offer, issuance, and solicitation will not be, liable at any time for any violation of any
applicable law, rule, or regulation governing the solicitation of acceptances or rejections of the Plan or the offer and issuance of
any securities under the Plan.

 

Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, as of the Effective Date, pursuant to section 1125(e) and (g) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Plan Sponsor,
DIP Lender, and DIP Agent and each of their respective affiliates, agents, representatives, members, principals, equity holders (regardless
of whether such interests are held directly or indirectly), officers, directors, managers, employees, advisors and attorneys shall be
deemed to have solicited acceptance of the Plan in good faith and in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code
and applicable non-bankruptcy law, and to have participated in good faith and in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy
Code and applicable non-bankruptcy law, in the offer, issuance, sale, or purchase of a security offered or sold under the Plan of a Reorganized
Debtor, and shall not be liable to any Person on account of such solicitation or participation.

     48

     

    

		(f)	Reimbursement
                                            or Contribution.

 

If
the Bankruptcy Court disallows a Claim for reimbursement or contribution of an Entity pursuant to section 502(e)(1)(B) of the Bankruptcy
Code, then to the extent that such Claim is contingent as of the Effective Date, such Claim shall be forever disallowed notwithstanding
section 502(j) of the Bankruptcy Code, unless prior to the Effective Date (a) such Claim has been adjudicated as noncontingent or (b)
the relevant holder of a Claim has filed a noncontingent Proof of Claim on account of such Claim and a Final Order has been entered determining
such Claim as no longer contingent.

 

		(g)	Recoupment.

 

In
no event shall any holder of a Claim be entitled to recoup such Claim against any Claim, right, or Cause of Action of the Debtors or
the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, unless such holder actually has performed such recoupment and provided notice thereof in writing
to the Debtors on or before the Confirmation Date, notwithstanding any indication in any Proof of Claim or otherwise that such holder
asserts, has, or intends to preserve any right of recoupment.

 

		(h)	Subordination
                                            Rights.

 

Any
Plan Distributions to holders of Claims or Interests shall be received and retained free from any obligations to hold or transfer the
same to any other holder and shall not be subject to levy, garnishment, attachment, or other legal process by any holder by reason of
claimed contractual subordination rights. On the Effective Date, any such subordination rights shall be deemed waived, and the Confirmation
Order shall constitute an injunction enjoining any Entity from enforcing or attempting to enforce any contractual, legal, or equitable
subordination rights to property distributed under the Plan, in each case other than as provided in the Plan; provided that any
such subordination rights shall be preserved in the event the Confirmation Order is vacated, the Effective Date does not occur in accordance
with the terms hereunder or the Plan is revoked or withdrawn.

 

		12.8.	Ipso
                                            Facto and Similar Provisions Ineffective.

 

Any
term of any policy, contract or other obligation applicable to a Debtor shall be void and of no further force or effect with respect
to any Debtor to the extent such policy, contract, or other obligation is conditioned on, creates an obligation of any Debtor as a result
of, or gives rise to a right of any Person based on any of the following: (a) the insolvency or financial condition of a Debtor; (b)
the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases; (c) the confirmation or consummation of this Plan, including any change of control that shall
occur as a result of such consummation; or (d) the Restructuring Transactions.

 

		12.9.	No
                                            Successor Liability.

 

The
Plan Sponsor (a) is not, and shall not be deemed to assume, agree to perform, pay or otherwise have any responsibilities for any liabilities
or obligations of the Debtors or any other Person relating to or arising out of the operations or the assets of the Debtors on or prior
to the Effective Date, (b) is not, and shall not be, a successor to the Debtors by reason of any theory of law or equity or responsible
for the knowledge or conduct of any Debtor prior to the Effective Date and (c) shall not have any successor or transferee liability of
any kind or character.

The
Debtors reserve the right, subject to the prior written consent of the Plan Sponsor, to revoke or withdraw the Plan prior to the Effective
Date as to any or all of the Debtors. If, with respect to a Debtor, the Plan has been revoked or withdrawn prior to the Effective Date,

Contracts or Unexpired Leases affected by the Plan, and any document or agreement executed pursuant to the Plan shall be deemed null

unenforceable, the Bankruptcy Court, in each case at the election and the request of the Debtors, shall have the power to alter and interpret
such term or provision to make it valid or enforceable to the maximum extent practicable, consistent with the original purpose of the
term or provision held to be invalid, void, or unenforceable, and such term or provision shall then be applicable as altered or interpreted.
Notwithstanding any such holding, alteration, or interpretation, the remainder of the terms and provisions of the Plan shall remain in
full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated by such holding, alteration, or interpretation; provided,
however, that any such holding, alteration, or interpretation shall not affect the approvals and consents as set forth in the RSA. The
Confirmation Order shall constitute a judicial determination and shall provide that each term and provision of the Plan, as it may have
been altered or interpreted in accordance with the foregoing, is (a) valid and enforceable pursuant to its terms, (b) integral
to the Plan and may not be deleted or modified without the consent of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors (as the case may be), and

schedule in the Plan Supplement provides otherwise, the rights, duties, and obligations arising under the Plan shall be governed by,
and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to the principles of conflict

In
the event that any payment or act under the Plan is required to be made or performed on a date that is not on a Business Day, then the
making of such payment or the performance of such act may be completed on the next succeeding Business Day, but shall be deemed to have
been completed as of the required date.

statement or provision contained in the Plan, or the taking of any action by any Debtor with respect to the Plan, the Disclosure Statement,

institution that is a participant in a signature guarantee medallion program approved by the Securities Transfer Association. A request
for a Transfer of a Contingent Value Right shall be accompanied by documentation establishing the Transfer is to a Permitted Transferee
and any other information as may be reasonably requested by the Company or the CVR Agent (including opinions of counsel, if requested
by the Company or the CVR Agent). Upon receipt of such a written Transfer request, the Company shall, subject to its reasonable determination
that the Transfer instrument is in proper form and the transfer otherwise complies with the other terms and conditions herein, instruct
the CVR Agent in writing to register the Transfer of the Contingent Value Rights in the CVR Register. All duly Transferred Contingent
Value Rights registered in the CVR Register shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same rights and entitling the
transferee to the same benefits and rights under this Agreement as those held immediately prior to the Transfer by the transferor. No
Transfer of a Contingent Value Right shall be valid until registered in the CVR Register, and any Transfer not duly registered in the
CVR Register will be void ab initio (unless the Transfer was permissible hereunder and such failure to be duly registered is attributable
to the fault of the CVR Agent to be established by clear and convincing evidence). Any Transfer of the Contingent Value Rights shall
be without charge to the Holder; provided that the Company and the CVR Agent may require (i) payment of a sum sufficient to cover
any Tax or charge that is imposed in connection with such Transfer, or (ii) that the transferor establish to the reasonable satisfaction
of the CVR Agent that such Taxes have been paid. The CVR Agent shall have no obligation to pay any such Taxes or charges and the CVR
Agent shall have no duty or obligation to take any action under any section of this Agreement that requires the payment by a Holder of
such Taxes or charges unless and until the CVR Agent is satisfied that all such Taxes or charges have been paid. Additionally, the fees
and costs related to any legal opinion requested under this Section 2.3(c) shall be the responsibility of the Holder. Any attempted
Transfer of a Contingent Value Right, in whole or in part, that is not permitted by this Section 2.3(c), including any attempted
Transfer that is made to any party other than a Permitted Transferee or otherwise not effected in accordance with the terms set forth
herein, will be void and of no effect. 

     14

     

    

(d)           A
Holder may make a written request to the CVR Agent to change such Holder’s address of record in the CVR Register. The written request
must be duly and validly executed by the Holder. Upon receipt of such written notice, the CVR Agent shall promptly record the change
of address in the CVR Register.

 

Section
2.4.            Determination of Total Distributable Amount.

 

(a)           The
amount distributable to Holders pursuant to Section 2.4(g) in respect of a Distribution Triggering Monetization Event (if any),
the Final Payment Date Distribution (if any) or a Holdback Payment Distribution (if any) is the “Total Distributable Amount”
with respect to such Distribution Triggering Monetization Event, Final Payment Date Distribution or Holdback Payment Distribution. The
Total Distributable Amount shall be calculated by applying the distribution allocations to the Holders described in Section 2.4(g)
to the aggregate Net Proceeds from CVR Asset Pool, the aggregate Value of the CVR Asset Pool and any Holdback Amount, to the extent
applicable in accordance with Section 2.4(b) (such amount being hereinafter referred to as the “Total CVR Pool Amount”).

 

(b)           Subject
to Section 2.4(d) below, the “Total CVR Pool Amount” shall equal:

 

(i)          in
connection with a Distribution Triggering Monetization Event (if any), (A) the Net Proceeds from CVR Asset Pool (determined in accordance
with Section 2.4(c)) for such Distribution Triggering Monetization Event less (B) the CVR Distribution Expenses incurred
in connection with such Distribution Triggering Monetization Event less (C) the then-outstanding aggregate amount of Post-Effective
Date Contributions (if any);

 

(ii)         in
connection with the Final Payment Date Distribution (if any), the sum of (A) (1) if a Distribution Triggering Monetization Event has
occurred prior to the Final Payment Date, (x) the Net Proceeds from CVR Asset Pool from any Monetization Event for which a payment has
not yet been made pursuant to Section 2.5(c) and (y) any portion of a Holdback Amount in respect of which the Company has actually
received cash prior to the Final Payment Date, or (2) if a Distribution Triggering Monetization Event has not occurred prior to the Final
Payment Date, (x) the Net Proceeds from Hotel Sale for any Qualifying CVR Asset Pool Sale completed prior to the Final Payment Date (reduced
by any portion of such Net Proceeds from Hotel Sale that was distributed out of CVR Holding Company in cash and is therefore an Additional
Adjustment Amount) and (y) any portion of a Holdback Amount in respect of which the Company has actually received cash prior to the Final
Payment Date, in each case to the extent not previously paid or applied pursuant to Section 2.4(g), plus (B) the Value
of the CVR Asset Pool not sold or transferred prior to the Final Payment Date, less (C) the CVR Distribution Expenses incurred
in connection with the Final Payment Date Distribution and less (D) the then-outstanding aggregate amount of Post-Effective Date
Contributions (if any); and 

     15

     

    

(iii)        in
connection with a Holdback Payment Distribution (if any), (A) any Holdback Amount in respect of which the Company has actually received
cash plus (B) the Value of any Holdback Amount in respect of which the Company has actually received non-cash consideration, in
each case, to the extent not previously taken into account in the calculation of a Total CVR Pool Amount less (C) the CVR Distribution
Expenses incurred in connection with the Holdback Payment Date Distribution.

 

For
the avoidance of doubt, no proceeds from the sale of any Hotel Property prior to a Distribution Triggering Monetization Event or, if
no Distribution Triggering Monetization Event has occurred prior to the Final Payment Date, the Final Payment Date that is not a Qualifying
CVR Asset Pool Sale shall be included in the calculation of the Total CVR Pool Amount.

 

(c)            Subject
to Section 2.4(d) below, “Net Proceeds from CVR Asset Pool” shall be determined and calculated in accordance
with this Section 2.4(c) to be equal to:

 

(i)          (A)
in the case of a Monetization Event that is structured as a sale of All or Substantially All of the Assets of the CVR Asset Pool as described
in clause (ii) of the definition of Monetization Event or the sale of a Hotel Property as described in clause (iii) of
the definition of Monetization Event, the amount of any cash or non-cash consideration payable to the Company (with the Value of any
non-cash consideration determined by the Independent Investment Banker) less (1) the mortgage indebtedness and other indebtedness
and liabilities (whether known, unknown, absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise) not assumed by the buyer or to which the buyer does
not acquire the assets subject to, and (2) reasonable, documented, out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Company in connection with
such Monetization Event, or (B) in the case of a Change-of-Control Monetization Event, (1) the amount of the consideration paid to the
Shareholders (with the Value of any non-cash consideration determined by the Independent Investment Banker) less (2) the reasonable,
documented, out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Shareholders in connection with such Monetization Event, plus

 

(ii)         in
the case of the first occurrence of a Distribution Triggering Monetization Event, the Net Proceeds from Hotel Sale for any Hotel Property
that was sold prior to such Distribution Triggering Monetization Event pursuant to a Qualifying CVR Asset Pool Sale. 

     16

     

    

(d)            Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.4(b) or Section 2.4(c):

 

(i)          the
Holders shall not be entitled to receive any payment pursuant to this Agreement if the aggregate Adjusted EBITDA of the Hotel Properties
in the CVR Asset Pool at the time of any Distribution Triggering Monetization Event or, if no Distribution Triggering Monetization Event
has occurred prior thereto, the Final Payment Date, as applicable, does not exceed the aggregate Adjusted EBITDA Threshold for such Hotel
Properties;

 

(ii)         in
the case of a Change-of-Control Monetization Event structured such that cash or non-cash consideration is payable to the Shareholders
and less than all of the Capital Stock in the Company or its applicable Subsidiary(ies) is sold pursuant to such Change-of-Control Monetization
Event, for the purposes of determining the Net Proceeds from CVR Asset Pool determined pursuant to Section 2.4(c)(i), the balance
of the Capital Stock not sold in such Change-of-Control Monetization Event shall be deemed to have been sold to the same purchaser(s),
in the same transaction and for the same amount and type of consideration per share as the shares of Capital Stock actually sold pursuant
to such Change-of-Control Monetization Event, such that all of the Capital Stock in the Company or its applicable Subsidiary(ies) shall
be deemed to have been sold pursuant to such Change-of Control Monetization Event and any amount payable on the CVR Payment Date with
respect to such Change-of-Control Monetization Event shall be the only payment Holders will, if such a Change-of-Control Monetization
Event occurs, be entitled to receive under this Agreement other than any additional amount that may become payable to the Holders (A)
as part of the Final Payment Date Distribution with respect to any portion of a Holdback Amount actually received prior to the Final
Payment Date and, at the election of the Company pursuant to Section 2.4(d)(vi), the Holdback Value with respect to any portion
of a Holdback Amount not actually received in cash prior to the Final Distribution Date or (B) as part of a Holdback Payment Distribution;

 

(iii)        for
the purposes of determining the applicable amount determined pursuant to Section 2.4(c)(i) or the Net Proceeds from Hotel Sale
for any Hotel Property, consideration shall not include any amount of such consideration payable (any such amount, a “Holdback
Amount”) pursuant to the applicable transaction that is subject to escrow or similar arrangements pursuant to the terms
of the definitive documentation governing such transaction as in effect upon the occurrence thereof (any such arrangement, a “Holdback”),
including (A) any such consideration that may be paid pursuant to earn-outs, holdbacks, milestones or other contingent arrangements (whether
or not related to future earnings or operations), (B) any such consideration placed in escrow or otherwise held back to support indemnification
obligations, specified liabilities (including taxes), purchase price adjustments, known or contingent claims (including making provision
for such claims as required by applicable law in connection with a dissolution), or other obligations, and (C) any such consideration
that is set aside in a separate account for use by the Company or an agent or representative of the Holders in connection with such transaction
whose duties include, among other things, managing, addressing, monitoring or otherwise dealing with post-closing matters relating to
such transaction to manage, address, monitor or otherwise deal with post-closing matters relating to such transaction; provided
that any such Holdback Amount (or a portion thereof) shall be deemed to be included in Net Proceeds from CVR Asset Pool or Net Proceeds
from Hotel Sale when released from such escrow or other arrangement and paid to the Company or the Shareholders, as applicable, and any
additional amount that would have been payable to the Holders on any CVR Payment Date pursuant to Section 2.5(c) with respect
to the Holdback Amount (or a portion thereof) so released and paid prior to the Final Payment Date shall instead be payable to the Holders
as part of the Final Payment Date Distribution pursuant to Section 2.5(d); 

     17

     

    

(iv)        in
no event shall Net Proceeds from CVR Asset Pool or Net Proceeds from Hotel Sale include (A) any consideration received by the Company
or the holders of Capital Stock that is not directly attributable to the acquisition of Capital Stock or any assets of the Company, including
payments made by the counterparty to a Monetization Event or other applicable transaction in respect of agreements not to compete, employment
or consulting arrangements, transition services or other similar arrangements, (B) any portion of the consideration in a Monetization
Event or other applicable transaction that is not paid to the Company or the holders of Capital Stock, as applicable, including any portion
of the consideration that is used to pay indebtedness (including principal, interest, break fees, management fees and any other fees
and expenses), fees and expenses, change of control payments (including transfer and consent fees and severance or other termination
payments), bonuses, brokers’ commissions or similar fees, or other liabilities of the Company (other than liabilities that have
been expressly excluded from the calculation of Net Proceeds from CVR Asset Pool or Net Proceeds from Hotel Sale in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement) or (C) any debt (including capital leases), operating leases, accounts payable or other liabilities of the Company
assumed, acquired, refinanced or replaced by a counterparty to a Monetization Event or other applicable transaction;

 

(v)         if
the assets subject to a Monetization Event include assets that are not included in the CVR Asset Pool for any reason (including if such
assets are Excluded Assets or were acquired by the Company subsequent to the Effective Date), the applicable amount determined
pursuant to Section 2.4(c)(i) shall be determined by an Independent Investment Banker, which amount
shall represent a proportionate adjustment based on the ratio of the Value of the assets subject to the Monetization Event that are included
in the CVR Asset Pool as compared to the Value of the assets subject to the Monetization Event that are not included in the CVR Asset
Pool, as adjusted to the extent necessary to reflect a similarly proportionate share, to the extent applicable, of associated indebtedness
and other liabilities and costs and expenses; 

 

(vi)        if
any portion of a Holdback Amount remains contingent as of the Final Payment Date, then, at the Company’s election (acting in its
sole discretion), either (A) the Holdback Value of such portion of such Holdback Amount shall be included in the Company’s calculation
of the Value of the CVR Asset Pool not sold or transferred prior to the Final Payment Date calculated in accordance with Section 2.4(b)(ii)
in respect of the Final Payment Date Distribution or (B) Holders shall have the right to be paid a distribution (any such distribution
described in this clause (B), a “Holdback Payment Distribution”) if and when the Company actually receives
consideration in respect of such portion of such Holdback Amount. 

     18

     

    

(vii)       the
Value of any portion of a Holdback Amount that remains contingent as of the Final Payment Date and the Company elects to take into account
in the calculation of the Final Payment Date Distribution pursuant to Section 2.4(d)(vi)(A) (the “Holdback Value”)
shall be determined in accordance with the value at which it is reflected on the Company’s balance sheet for the quarter ended
immediately preceding the Final Payment Date in accordance with GAAP or, if such Holdback Amount is not reflected on the Company’s
balance sheet for the quarter ended immediately preceding the Final Payment Date in accordance with GAAP, the Value of such Holdback
Amount shall be an amount equal to the value at which such Holdback Amount would have been reflected on the Company’s balance sheet
as of such quarter-end if it had been required to be so reflected in accordance with GAAP as such value
is determined in good faith by the Board of Directors;

 

(viii)      for
the avoidance of doubt, following the payment by the Company of a Final Payment Date Distribution that takes into account the Holdback
Value of any portion of a Holdback Amount pursuant to Section 2.4(d)(vi)(A), no further amount in respect of such portion of such
Holdback Amount shall be payable or distributable pursuant to this Agreement and there shall be no Holdback Payment Distribution with
respect to such portion of such Holdback Amount; and

 

(ix)         in
no event shall the Net Proceeds from CVR Asset Pool, Net Proceeds from Hotel Sale or Value include any amount attributable to the outstanding
principal amount of any Upstream Intercompany Loans.

 

(e)            If,
prior to the sixtieth (60th) day prior to the Final Payment Date, (i) there has not been a Distribution Triggering Monetization
Event or (ii) (A) there has been a Distribution Triggering Monetization Event, (B) there has not been a Change-of-Control Monetization
Event and (C) not all of the assets of the CVR Asset Pool have been sold, then the Board of Directors shall, on or prior to such day,
appoint an Independent Valuer to determine the Value of the CVR Asset Pool as of the Final Payment Date. The Company shall provide the
Independent Valuer with any applicable financial statements and other supporting documentation relating to the applicable Hotel Properties
that the Independent Valuer shall reasonably request. The Independent Valuer shall be instructed to make the determination of the Value
of the Hotel Properties and submit a report meeting the requirements for an MAI appraisal not later than the twenty-sixth (26th)
Business Day prior to the Final Payment Date. The Company shall pay all fees and disbursements due to the Independent Valuer, which fees
and disbursements shall constitute CVR Distribution Expenses under this Agreement and shall be deducted from the Net Proceeds from CVR
Asset Pool in the calculation of the Total CVR Pool Amount described above in Section 2.4(b). Any decision rendered by the Independent
Valuer with respect to the Value of any Hotel Property shall be final, conclusive and binding upon the Company and each Holder (absent
manifest error) for purposes of this Agreement. 

     19

     

    

(f)                
  

 

(i)          If
either there has been a Distribution Triggering Monetization Event in which any consideration has been excluded from the calculation
of the Net Proceeds from the CVR Asset Pool for such Distribution Triggering Monetization Event as a result of a Holdback, then the Net
Proceeds from CVR Asset Pool shall be re-calculated as of the Final Payment Date to include any portion of the Holdback that has been
actually received by the Company or the Shareholders prior to the Final Payment Date, as applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, following
the CVR Payment Date in respect of a Change-of-Control Monetization Event, there shall be no additional amount payable to Holders under
this Agreement other than, if applicable, the payment of any amount in respect of any proceeds from a Holdback actually received by the
Company or the Shareholders following such CVR Payment Date and prior to the Final Payment Date and the Holdback Value.

 

(ii)         In
connection with any Holdback Payment Distribution in which all or a portion of the Holdback Amount actually received is in non-cash consideration,
then the Board of Directors shall appoint an Independent Investment Banker to determine the Value of such non-cash consideration promptly
following its actual receipt thereof. The Company shall provide the Independent Investment Banker with any applicable supporting documentation
relating to the applicable non-cash consideration that the Independent Investment Banker shall reasonably request. The Independent Investment
Banker shall be instructed to make the determination of the Holdback Value with respect to such non-cash consideration not later than
the tenth (10th) Business Day following such appointment. The Company shall pay all fees and disbursements due to the Independent
Investment Banker, which fees and disbursements shall constitute CVR Distribution Expenses under this Agreement and shall be deducted
from the Net Proceeds from CVR Asset Pool in the calculation of the Total CVR Pool Amount described above in Section 2.4(b) with
respect to such Holdback Payment Distribution. Any decision rendered by the Independent Investment Banker with respect to the Value of
such non-cash consideration shall be final, conclusive and binding upon the Company and each Holder (absent manifest error) for purposes
of this Agreement.

 

(g)            Subject
in all respects to Section 2.4(h), the Total Distributable Amount that shall be distributable to the Holders in connection with
a Distribution Triggering Monetization Event, the Final Payment Date Distribution or any Holdback Payment Distribution shall be calculated
as follows (with each Holder entitled to receive its Pro Rata Payment Amount of the amounts set forth in this Section 2.4(g) that
are distributable to the Holders):

 

(i)          first,
the Total CVR Pool Amount with respect to such Distribution Triggering Monetization Event, Final Payment Date Distribution or Holdback
Payment Distribution, as applicable, plus the Additional Adjustment Amount as of the calculation date (the sum of such
amounts, the “Adjusted Total CVR Pool Amount”) shall be applied to reduce the DIP Financing Invested Capital
Amount (as previously reduced from prior applications in accordance with this Section 2.4(g)(i) and Section 2.4(i)) until
the DIP Financing Invested Capital Amount has been reduced to zero; 

     20

     

    

(ii)         second,
if the amount equal to (A) the Adjusted Total CVR Pool Amount with respect to such Distribution Triggering Monetization Event, Final
Payment Date Distribution or Holdback Payment Distribution, as applicable, less (B) the amount applied to reduce the DIP
Financing Invested Capital Amount pursuant to Section 2.4(g)(i) in connection with such Distribution Triggering Monetization Event,
Final Payment Date Distribution or Holdback Payment Distribution, as applicable, is greater than zero, the remainder of such Adjusted
Total CVR Pool Amount shall be applied to reduce the Supporting Stockholder CVR Asset Pool Invested Amount (as previously reduced from
prior applications in accordance with this Section 2.4(g)(ii) and Section 2.4(i)) until the Supporting Stockholder CVR
Asset Pool Invested Amount has been reduced to zero;

 

(iii)        third,
if the amount equal to (A) the Adjusted Total CVR Pool Amount less (B) the amounts applied to reduce the DIP Financing
Invested Capital Amount and the Supporting Stockholder CVR Asset Pool Invested Amount pursuant to Sections 2.4(g)(i) and 2.4(g)(ii)
is greater than zero, 6.0% of the remainder of such Adjusted Total CVR Pool Amount shall be distributable to the Holders until 94.0%
of such remainder as of the calculation date (the “Section 2.4(g)(iii) 94% Amount”) plus the
aggregate amount of any Section 2.4(g)(iii) 94% Amounts calculated from prior applications of this Section 2.4(g)(iii) equals
a return of 15.0% per annum accrued starting on the day following the Effective Date and thereafter on the basis of twelve (12) thirty
(30)-day months and a three hundred sixty (360)-day year, compounding quarterly, on the DIP Financing Invested Capital Amount balance
from time to time;

 

(iv)        fourth,
if the amount equal to (A) the Adjusted Total CVR Pool Amount less (B) (x) the amounts applied to reduce the DIP Financing
Invested Capital Amount and the Supporting Stockholder CVR Asset Pool Invested Amount pursuant to Sections 2.4(g)(i) and 2.4(g)(ii)
and (y) the amounts distributable to the Holders under Section 2.4(g)(iii) is greater than zero, 6.0% of the remainder of
such Adjusted Total CVR Pool Amount shall be distributable to the Holders until 94.0% of such remainder as of the calculation date (the
 “Section 2.4(g)(iv) 94% Amount”) plus the aggregate amount of any Section 2.4(g)(iv) 94% Amounts
calculated from prior applications of this Section 2.4(g)(iv) equals a return of 12.5% per annum accrued starting on the day following
the Petition Date and thereafter on the basis of twelve (12) thirty (30)-day months and a three hundred sixty (360)-day year, compounding
quarterly, on the Supporting Stockholder CVR Asset Pool Invested Amount balance from time to time; and

 

(v)         fifth,
if the amount equal to (A) the Adjusted Total CVR Pool Amount less (B)(x) the amounts applied to reduce the DIP Financing
Invested Capital Amount and the Supporting Stockholder CVR Asset Pool Invested Amount pursuant to Sections 2.4(g)(i) and
2.4(g)(ii) and (y) the amounts distributable to the Holders under Sections 2.4(g)(iii) and 2.4(g)(iv) is greater
than zero, 25.0% of the remainder of such Adjusted Total CVR Pool Amount shall be distributable to the Holders. 

     21

     

    

(h)           Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the total amount distributable to a Holder under this Agreement may not
exceed $6.00 per Contingent Value Right held by such Holder.

 

(i)            For
the avoidance of doubt, (i) any distribution, payment or loan that is an Additional Adjustment Amount shall be deemed to have reduced,
as applicable, the balance of the DIP Financing Invested Capital Amount or the Supporting Stockholder CVR Asset Pool Invested Amount,
as applicable, on the funding date of such distribution, payment or loan, (ii) any reduction in the DIP Financing Invested Capital Amount
or the Supporting Stockholder CVR Asset Pool Invested Amount in connection with a Monetization Event shall
be deemed to have occurred on the date of the Monetization Event and (iii) no amount shall be distributable with respect to the sale
of a Hotel Property as described in clause (iii) of the definition of Monetization Event prior to the Final Payment Date Distribution,
but the Net Proceeds from CVR Asset Pool from any such Monetization Event shall be taken into account in determining the Total Distributable
Amount in respect of the Final Payment Date Distribution in accordance with Section 2.4(b)(ii)(A)(1).

 

(j)            For
illustrative purposes only, an example of a calculation of the Total Distributable Amount in accordance with Section 2.4(g) is
set forth on Schedule III attached hereto together with a spreadsheet supporting such calculation.

 

(k)           For
the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement; (i) no Holder shall be entitled to any
distribution in excess of its Pro Rata Payment Amount; (ii) the amount by which (A) the amount that would otherwise be distributable
to the Holders pursuant to Section 2.4(g) exceeds (B) the aggregate of all of the Pro Rata Payment Amounts with respect to the
applicable Distribution Triggering Monetization Event, Final Payment Date Distribution or Holdback Payment Distribution shall, in each
case, be for the Company’s account, with such excess amount to be used in the Company’s sole discretion and without limitation
or further obligation to any Holder or otherwise under this Agreement (including any obligation to take such excess into account in the
calculation of any Total Distributable Amount with respect to a future Distribution Triggering Monetization Event, Final Payment Date
Distribution or Holdback Payment Distribution); and (iii) the amount required to be deposited with the CVR Agent pursuant to Section
2.5 with respect to the Total Distributable Amount shall be the aggregate of the Pro Rata Payment Amounts that are actually distributable
to the Holders.

     22

     

    

Section
2.5.            Payment Procedures.

 

(a)            If
a Distribution Triggering Monetization Event occurs, then no later than the later of (i) the date upon which the financial information
with respect to the CVR Asset Pool for the calendar quarter immediately preceding the calendar quarter in which such Distribution Triggering
Monetization Event occurs is required to be provided to the CVR Agent pursuant to Section 4.3(a) and (ii) the date that is thirty
(30) days following such Distribution Triggering Monetization Event, the Company shall deliver to the CVR Agent and the CVR Agent shall,
pursuant to the confidential, password-protected website that shall be established and administered by the CVR Agent pursuant to Section
4.3(b) make available a certificate with the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA for the Measurement Period for all Hotel Properties in
the CVR Asset Pool individually and in the aggregate, and individually for any Hotel Property that was sold prior to such Distribution
Triggering Monetization Event in a sale that qualified or did not qualify as a Qualifying CVR Asset Pool Sale, the corresponding Adjusted
EBITDA Threshold for each such Hotel Property, and the Company’s calculation of the Net Proceeds from CVR Asset Pool, the Total
CVR Pool Amount (if different from the Net Proceeds from CVR Asset Pool) and the Total Distributable Amount with respect to such Distribution
Triggering Monetization Event (the “Calculation Certificate”), which such Calculation Certificate and the information
contained therein shall be deemed to be Confidential Information pursuant to this Agreement and subject to the terms and provisions of
Section 4.3(b) hereof. The Company shall Make Available notice of the fact that such Calculation Certificate has been made available
on such confidential website. If such Distribution Triggering Monetization Event is the consummation of the direct or indirect sale of
All or Substantially All of the Assets and not all of the assets included in the CVR Asset Pool have been sold or the consideration payable
in such Distribution Triggering Monetization Event could result in all or any portion of a Holdback Amount becoming payable in accordance
with Section 2.4(d)(iii), the Calculation Certificate shall also so indicate and state that the Holders may be entitled to receive
an additional cash payment with respect to the remaining assets in the CVR Asset Pool that were not sold in such Distribution Triggering
Monetization Event or the Holdback Amount. If an Independent Valuer is appointed pursuant to Section 2.4(e), then on or prior
to the twenty-fifth (25th) Business Day prior to the Final Payment Date, the Company will deliver a Calculation Certificate
(which Calculation Certificate shall also include the Value calculated in accordance with Section 2.4(b)(ii)(B) and information
regarding any elections made by the Company pursuant to Section 2.4(d)(vi)) to the CVR Agent and make available such Calculation
Certificate in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 2.5(a). 

 

(b)           Subject
to Section 2.5(d), during the twenty (20) Business Day period after the Calculation Certificate is made available to Holders in
accordance with Section 2.5(a) (the “Objection Period”), the Majority of Holders may send a notice duly
and validly executed by such Holders (the “Notice of Objection”) to the CVR Agent and the Company detailing
their objection to any calculation of a Total Distributable Amount hereunder as set forth in the Calculation Certificate by providing
a reasonable, good faith basis for their objection; provided however such objection may not relate to any item determined
by the Independent Valuer or Independent Investment Banker. Following the receipt of a Notice of Objection, the Company shall permit,
and shall cause its Subsidiaries to permit, the Independent Accountant to have access to the records of the Company or its Subsidiaries
as may be reasonably necessary to investigate the basis for the Notice of Objection. Any dispute arising from a Notice of Objection will
be resolved by the Independent Accountant in accordance with the procedure set forth in Section 2.6, which decision will be final,
conclusive and binding on the parties hereto and every Holder (absent manifest error). If a Notice of Objection has not been delivered
to the Company within the Objection Period, then the Company’s calculations in the Calculation Certificate will be final, conclusive
and binding on the parties hereto and every Holder for all purposes of this Agreement.

 

(c)           If,
following the delivery of a Calculation Certificate and the Objection Period or, if applicable, completion of the procedure set forth
in Section 2.6(a) with respect to a Distribution Triggering Monetization Event or the Final Payment Date Distribution (with respect
to which an Independent Valuer has been appointed pursuant to Section 2.4(e)) for which a Notice of Objection has been duly and
validly executed by the Majority of Holders and timely delivered to the CVR Agent, there is a Total Distributable Amount distributable
to the Holders with respect to such Distribution Triggering Monetization Event or Final Payment Date Distribution, the Company will deposit
with the CVR Agent cash in an amount equal to the Total Distributable Amount with respect to such Distribution Triggering Monetization
Event or Final Payment Date. On the date (a “CVR Payment Date”) that is not more than five (5) Business Days
after receipt of such Total Distributable Amount (and which shall, if with respect to a distribution with respect to the Final Payment
Date, be the Final Payment Date), the CVR Agent will then pay to each Holder an amount equal to such Holder’s Pro Rata Payment
Amount with respect to such Total Distributable Amount by check mailed to the address of each such respective Holder as reflected in
the CVR Register, or, if agreed to by the Company with respect to any Holder who has provided the CVR Agent with wire transfer instructions
meeting the CVR Agent’s requirements, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account. 

     23

     

    

(d)           If
a Final Payment Date Distribution is payable to the Holders on the Final Payment Date pursuant to Section 2.4(g) and no Independent
Valuer has been appointed pursuant to Section 2.4(e), the Company will, on the fifth (5th) Business Day prior to the
Final Payment Date, deposit with the CVR Agent cash in an amount equal to the Total Distributable Amount to be distributed on the Final
Payment Date. Holders shall have no right to object to the calculation of this amount pursuant to Section 2.5(b) or otherwise.
On the Final Payment Date, the CVR Agent will then pay to each Holder an amount equal to such Holder’s Pro Rata Payment Amount
with respect to such Total Distributable Amount either by check mailed to the address of each such respective Holder as reflected in
the CVR Register, or, if agreed to by the Company, with respect to any Holder who has provided the CVR Agent with wire transfer instructions
meeting the CVR Agent’s requirements, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account.

 

(e)           If
a Holdback Payment Distribution is payable to the Holders at any time pursuant to Section 2.4(d)(vi)(B) and all of the consideration
received in respect of the applicable Holdback Amount was cash, the Company will, within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the
cash consideration in respect of the applicable Holdback Amount, deposit with the CVR Agent cash in an amount equal to the Total Distributable
Amount with respect to such Holdback Payment Distribution. If a Holdback Payment Distribution is payable to the Holders at any time pursuant
to Section 2.4(d)(vi)(B) and some or all of the consideration received in respect of the applicable Holdback Amount was non-cash
consideration, the Company will, within ten (10) Business Days after the final determination by the Independent Investment Banker of
the Value of such non-cash consideration portion of the Holdback Amount in accordance with Section 2.4(f)(ii), deposit with the
CVR Agent cash in an amount equal to the Total Distributable Amount with respect to such Holdback Payment Distribution. In the case of
either of the preceding two sentences of this Section 2.5(e), on the date (a “Holdback Payment Distribution Payment
Date”) that is not more than five (5) Business Days after receipt of such Total Distributable Amount, the CVR Agent will
then pay to each Holder an amount equal to such Holder’s Pro Rata Payment Amount with respect to such Total Distributable Amount
in respect of such Holdback Payment Distribution by check mailed to the address of each such respective Holder as reflected in the CVR
Register, or, if agreed to by the Company with respect to any Holder who has provided the CVR Agent with wire transfer instructions meeting
the CVR Agent’s requirements, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account.

     24

     

    

(f)            The
Company and the CVR Agent will be entitled to deduct and withhold, or cause to be deducted or withheld, from the Total Distributable
Amount or any other amount payable to the Holders pursuant to this Agreement, such amount as the Company or the CVR Agent is required
to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any provision of state, local or non-U.S. Tax law.
The Holders will deliver to the Company and/or the CVR Agent, as applicable, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Company
and/or the CVR Agent, as applicable, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Company and/or the
CVR Agent, as applicable, as will permit the Company and/or the CVR Agent to determine the appropriate amount of withholding. To the
extent that amounts are so withheld are paid over to or deposited with the relevant Governmental Entity, withheld amounts will be treated
for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to a Holder in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. 

 

(g)           The
CVR Agent shall have no duty or obligation to calculate, verify or confirm the accuracy, validity or sufficiency of any Total Distributable
Amount or any other amount under this Agreement.

 

(h)           The
Company’s and CVR Agent’s obligation to pay any Total Distributable Amount shall be conditioned on no court or other Governmental
Entity of competent jurisdiction having enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any judgment, injunction or order (whether
temporary, preliminary or permanent) that is in effect and restrains, enjoins or otherwise prohibits or imposes any penalty upon the
payment of any Total Distributable Amount and the payments being otherwise lawful.

 

(i)            If
the Company requests in writing to the CVR Agent, any funds comprising the cash deposited with the CVR Agent under Section 2.5(c),
Section 2.5(d) or Section 2.5(e) that remain undistributed to the Holders twelve (12) months after a CVR Payment Date,
the Final Payment Date or a Holdback Payment Distribution Payment Date, as applicable, shall be delivered to the Company by the CVR Agent
and any Holders who have not theretofore received payment in respect of such Contingent Value Rights shall thereafter look only to the
Company for payment of such amounts, subject to any applicable escheatment laws in effect from time to time. Upon delivery of such funds
to the Company, the escheatment obligations of the CVR Agent with respect to such funds shall terminate. Notwithstanding any other provisions
of this Agreement, any portion of the funds provided by or on behalf of the Company to the CVR Agent that remains unclaimed one hundred
and eighty (180) days after termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.7 (or such earlier date immediately prior
to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to, or become property of, any Governmental Entity) shall, to the extent permitted
by law, become the property of the Company, free and clear of any claims or interest of any person previously entitled thereto, subject
to any applicable escheatment laws in effect from time to time.

 

(j)            All
funds received by Computershare under this Agreement that are to be distributed or applied by Computershare in the performance of services
hereunder shall be held by Computershare as agent for the Company and deposited in one or more bank accounts to be maintained by Computershare
in its name as agent for the Company, and such funds shall be free of any claims by the Company other than reversionary rights and as
set forth in Section 2.5(i), and separate from any potential bankruptcy estate of the Company. Computershare shall have no responsibility
or liability for any diminution of the funds that may result from any deposit made by Computershare in accordance with this paragraph,
including any losses resulting from a default by any bank, financial institution or other third party, except as a result of Computershare’s
willful misconduct, fraud, bad faith or gross negligence (each as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction). Computershare may from time to time receive interest, dividends or other earnings in connection with such deposits. Computershare
shall not be obligated to pay such interest, dividends or earnings to the Company, any Holder or any other party. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary herein, Company shall be responsible for providing Computershare with sufficient funds to satisfy its payment obligations
to the Holders.

Section
2.6.            Review of the Independent Accountant.

 

(a)            Any
dispute arising from the delivery of a Notice of Objection pursuant to Section 2.5(b) will be settled by the Independent Accountant,
who will act as an expert, and not as an arbitrator. The Company will engage the Independent Accountant and will reasonably cooperate
with the Independent Accountant, including providing the Independent Accountant reasonable access during normal business hours and on
reasonable advance notice to relevant personnel, properties, and books and records of the Company. The Independent Accountant will limit
its review and determination to the items set forth in the Notice of Objection and to no other matters, and will deliver a written report
containing its calculations of each such disputed item. The final determination of the Independent Accountant will be made in strict
accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Independent Accountant will render its written report resolving such items in dispute
as soon as possible after completion of written submissions to the Independent Accountant. The Independent Accountant will determine
the items in dispute solely based on the Notice of Objection and the written submissions made by the Company and not by independent review
and the Independent Accountant will not be permitted to question any judgment or assumption made by the Company in determining the Total
Distributable Amount in any case where a judgment or assumption is required in the calculation of the Total Distributable Amount. The
costs and expenses billed by the Independent Accountant in connection with the performance of its duties described herein shall be allocated,
on the one hand, to the Company (and shall not reduce the Total CVR Pool Amount) and, on the other hand, to the Holders (and shall be
treated as CVR Distribution Expenses, and shall reduce the Total CVR Pool Amount), in each case, on a pro rata basis based upon the degree
to which the Independent Accountant has accepted the respective positions of the Company, on the one hand, and the Holders (as set forth
in the Notice of Objection), on the other hand, and such allocation shall be determined by the Independent Accountant and set forth in
its final report. The Company and each Holder will be responsible for its own attorney fees, expenses and costs. The decision of the
Independent Accountant will be final, conclusive and binding (absent manifest error) on the parties hereto and each of the Holders.

 

(b)            The
sole and exclusive remedy or recourse for any Holder under this Agreement relating to the Calculation Certificate delivered by the Company
and the determination as to whether a distribution is required to be made under this Agreement shall be to, subject to Section 2.5(d),
submit a Notice of Objection and trigger the review by the Independent Accountant pursuant to this Section 2.6.

 

Section
2.7.           Maturity Date Extension. If the Board of Directors, in its
sole discretion, determines that the Company shall exercise its right to extend the Maturity Date pursuant to this Section 2.7,
the Company shall exercise such right by delivering a written notice to the CVR Agent no later than ten (10) days prior to the Initial
Maturity Date stating that the Board of Directors has determined to extend the Maturity Date to the Extended Maturity Date. The Company
shall Make Available such notice to the Holders; provided that any failure so to notify the Holders shall not affect the validity
of such extension (it being understood that any failure so to notify the Holders shall not excuse the CVR Agent from its obligations
under this Section 2.7). 

     26

     

    

Section
2.8.            No Voting, Dividends or Interest; No Equity or Ownership Interest
in the Company; No Fiduciary Duties.

 

(a)           
The Contingent Value Rights shall not have any voting or dividend rights, and interest shall not accrue on any amounts payable regarding
any Contingent Value Rights to any Holder.

 

(b)            The
Contingent Value Rights shall not represent any equity, stock or other ownership interest in the Company, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate
of the Company or any other Person.

 

(c)            Neither
the Company, nor any of its Subsidiaries (including the CVR Holding Company), nor any of their respective officers or directors owe fiduciary
duties of any kind to the Holders.

 

Section
2.9.            Ability to Abandon the Contingent Value Right. The Holder
of a Contingent Value Right may at any time, at such Holder’s option, abandon all of such Holder’s remaining rights in a
Contingent Value Right by delivering to the CVR Agent a notice of abandonment relinquishing such Contingent Value Right to the Company
without consideration therefor, in which case such Contingent Value Right shall be deemed canceled and no longer outstanding, and the
CVR Agent shall amend the CVR Register accordingly and notify the Company in writing.

Section
3.2.            Certain Rights of CVR Agent. The CVR Agent undertakes to

faith or willful or intentional misconduct (each as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction)

fees and expenses of legal counsel and the reasonable and documented, out-of-pocket costs and expenses of defending the Indemnitee against
any claim of liability arising therefrom) (collectively, “Losses”) that may be imposed on, incurred by, or
asserted against any Indemnitee, at any time, and in any way relating to, arising out of or in connection with the execution, delivery
or performance of this Agreement, the enforcement of any rights or remedies in connection with this Agreement, and the payment, transfer
or other application of funds pursuant to this Agreement, or as may arise by reason of any act, omission or error of the Indemnitee;
provided, however, that no Indemnitee shall be entitled to be so indemnified, defended, protected, saved or kept harmless
to the extent such Loss was caused by the willful misconduct, fraud, bad faith or gross negligence of any Indemnitee (each as determined
by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction);

 

(f)            in
addition to the indemnification provided under Section 3.2(e), the Company agrees (i) to pay the fees of the CVR Agent in
connection with the CVR Agent’s performance of its obligations hereunder, as set forth on a mutually agreed upon fee schedule executed
by the Company and the CVR Agent on or prior to the date hereof (the “CVR Agent Fees”), and (ii) to reimburse

or other communication, paper or document received by the CVR Agent hereunder, the CVR Agent may, in its sole discretion, refrain from
taking any action, and shall be fully protected and shall not be liable in any way to the Company or other Person or entity for refraining
from taking such action, unless the CVR Agent receives written instructions signed by the Company which eliminate such ambiguity or uncertainty
to the reasonable satisfaction of the CVR Agent;

 

(h)           nothing
herein shall preclude the CVR Agent from acting in any other capacity for the Company or for any other Person;

 

(i)            the
CVR Agent shall not incur any liability for not performing any act, duty, obligation or responsibility by reason of any occurrence beyond
the control of the CVR Agent (including any act or provision of any present or future law or regulation or governmental authority, any
act of God, terrorist acts, shortage of supply, breakdowns or malfunctions, interruptions or malfunction of computer facilities, or loss
of data due to power failures or mechanical difficulties with information storage or retrieval systems or failure of any means of communication,
labor difficulties, war, civil disorder or epidemic or pandemic); provided, that the CVR Agent shall (i) use its commercially
reasonable efforts to end or mitigate the effects of any such occurrence and (ii) resume the performance of its obligations as soon as
reasonably practicable after the end of such occurrence;

 

(j)            whenever
the CVR Agent shall deem it necessary or desirable that a fact or matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting
any action hereunder (including the identity of a Holder), the CVR Agent may rely upon an Officer’s Certificate, and such Officer’s
Certificate shall be full and complete authorization and protection to the CVR Agent. The CVR Agent shall incur no liability for or in
respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it absent willful misconduct, fraud, bad faith or gross negligence (each as determined
by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction) under the provisions of this Agreement in reliance on such
Officer’s Certificate. The CVR Agent is hereby authorized and directed to accept instructions with respect to the performance of
its duties and obligations hereunder from the chief executive officer, president, chief financial officer, any vice president, the controller,
the treasurer or the secretary of the Company, and to apply to such officer for advice or instructions in connection with its duties,
and it shall not be liable and shall be indemnified for any action taken or suffered to be taken by it in accordance with instructions
from such officer. The CVR Agent shall not be held to have notice of any change of authority of any person, until receipt of written

this Agreement, or to comply with any notice, instruction, direction, request or other communication, paper or document other than as

out or performing by the CVR Agent of the provisions of this Agreement.

    Any such successor to the CVR Agent shall agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and shall become the CVR

or making available the information to the Holder or such Holder’s representatives by a contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation;
or (3) was, is or becomes independently developed by the Holder or its representatives without directly using any Confidential Information;
provided further that (A) subject to Section 4.3(b)(ii), Confidential Information may be disclosed if legally
compelled (including by deposition, interrogatory, request for documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process), or
in response to a request from a regulatory or self-regulatory or supervisory authority having or asserting jurisdiction over the applicable
Holder (collectively, “Compelled”), and (B) each Holder may disclose Confidential Information to its officers,
employees, agents, accountants, attorneys, and advisors but such Holder shall be responsible for any breach of the agreement set forth
in this Section 4.3(b) by any such officer, employee, agent, accountant, attorney, or advisor as if such Persons were subject
thereto.

 

(ii)          If
any Holder or representative thereof becomes Compelled to disclose any of the Confidential Information, such Holder shall, to the extent
legally permitted, provide the Company with reasonably prompt and, if possible, prior written notice of such requirement to disclose
such Confidential Information. Upon receipt of such notice, the Company may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy at its
sole expense. If such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, such Holder and its representatives shall disclose only that
portion of the Confidential Information which is legally required to be disclosed (as determined in good faith by counsel to such Holder)
and shall, at the request and sole expense of the Company, take all reasonable steps to preserve the confidentiality of the Confidential
Information. In addition, neither such Holder nor any of its representatives will oppose any judicial, administrative, arbitral or other
legal action, suit, hearing, inquiry, order, audit, arbitration, mediation, claim, investigation or other proceeding (whether federal,
state, local or foreign or public or private) by the Company to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reliable assurance that
confidential treatment will be accorded the Confidential Information and such Holder and its representatives will, if and to the extent
requested by the Company and legally permissible to do so, cooperate with and assist the Company, at the Company’s expense and
on a reasonable basis, in connection therewith. 

     33

     

    

(iii)         Each
Holder hereby agrees (on behalf of itself and its representatives) that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach
of its obligations contemplated by this Section 4.3(b), and that in addition to all other remedies, the Company shall be entitled
to injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy for any such breach to the extent provided by law. Each Holder hereby agrees (on
behalf of itself and its representatives) to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy.

 

(iv)         Unless
extended in writing by mutual agreement of the parties, the obligations under this Section 4.3(b) shall terminate upon the second
anniversary of the Final Payment Date, without any further action by any party.

 

(c)            The
Company shall Make Available to the Holders, within ninety (90) days after the end of each calendar year beginning with the calendar
year ending [December 31, 2021], an Officer’s Certificate on behalf of the Company (which certificate shall state that it is being
delivered in such person’s capacity as an officer and not in such person’s individual capacity and that such person shall
have no personal liability) stating that to the Company’s knowledge, each entity has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled the
covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement in all material respects and is not in default in the performance or observance
in any material respect of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Agreement (or, if a default shall have occurred, describing all

provided that the Company may assign any of its obligations hereunder to an Affiliate of the Company as long as the Company causes
such Affiliate to perform the Company’s obligations hereunder and remains responsible for any breach of this Agreement by such
Affiliate. In the event an assignment by the Company to an Affiliate pursuant to the preceding sentence occurs, the Company shall deliver
to the CVR Agent an Officer’s Certificate stating that such assignment complies with this Section 4.5. Any Person into which
the CVR Agent or any successor CVR Agent may be merged or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person to which the CVR Agent shall

a successor CVR Agent under the provisions of Section 3.4 hereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the CVR Agent
agrees to use reasonable best efforts to provide the Company with written notice of any such event. No Holder shall, in whole or in part,
assign any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement except in accordance with a Permitted Transfer in accordance with Section
2.3(b)-(c). Any purported assignment that is not permitted by this Section 4.3 shall be null and void and of no effect.

or matter to the specific items or matters set forth immediately following such word or to similar items or matters, whether or not non-limiting
language (such as “without limitation” or “but not limited to” or words of similar import) is used with reference
thereto, but rather shall be deemed to refer to all other items or matters that fall within the broadest possible scope of such general

SECTION
2. LOANS 

 

2.1         Loans.

 

(a)        Loan
Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the entry and terms of the DIP Financing Orders and
the satisfaction of the other applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 3, the Lenders agree to make available to the
Borrower Loans in an amount not to exceed each Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the applicable Commitment from time to time during the
term of this Agreement as described in this Section 2.1(a), subject to the Final Advance Cap. Any amount borrowed under this Section
2.1(a) and subsequently repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed. Subject to Sections 2.9, 2.10, and 2.11, all
amounts owed hereunder with respect to the Loans shall be Paid in Full no later than the Termination Date. Each Lender’s Loan Commitment
shall be (A) permanently reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the aggregate principal amount of any Loans made by such Lender in accordance
with this Section 2.1(a), (B) terminated in full upon the Termination Date and (C) terminated in full to the extent done so pursuant
to Section 8.2.

 

(i)         Interim
Availability. Upon the occurrence of the Closing Date, and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section
3, the Initial Lender agrees to make Loans to the Borrowers to be used in accordance with Section 2.3, in an amount not to
exceed the Interim Funding Amount.

 

(ii)   
    Final Availability. Upon entry of the Final DIP Financing Order and subject to the satisfaction of the other
applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2, the Lenders severally agree to make additional Loans to the Borrowers
to be used in accordance with Section 2.3, in an amount not to exceed such Lenders’ respective Pro Rata Share of any amount
of the then-remaining unfunded Commitments, subject to the Final Advance Cap.

 

(b)          Reserved.

 

(c)          Borrowing
Mechanics for Loans.

 

(i)           Loans
shall be made in an aggregate minimum amount of US$5,000,000 and integral multiples of US$1,000,000 in excess of that amount. Subject
to the terms hereof, the Lenders shall not be obligated to make any more than three (3) advances as follows: (A) a maximum of two (2)
advances in the aggregate principal amount of the Interim Funding Amount, during the period from and after the Closing Date and prior
to the date on which the Final DIP Financing Order is entered and (B) a maximum of one (1) advance from and after the date that the Final
DIP Financing Order is entered and prior to the Termination Date up to an amount equal to the amount of the remaining unfunded Commitments,
provided, that the advance made pursuant to this clause (B) (the “Final Advance”), shall not exceed the Final
Advance Cap Amount (the “Final Advance Cap”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, and so long as no Default or Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing and the conditions in Section 3.2 are satisfied, Borrower may request advances hereunder
to the extent required to fund the Professional Fee Trust Account in accordance with the DIP Financing Orders to the extent of any unfunded
Commitments up to the Interim Funding Amount prior to the entry of the Final DIP Financing Order, and to the extent of the remaining
unfunded Commitments thereafter.

     31

     

    

 

(ii)                
The Representative Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent a fully executed and delivered Funding Notice no later than
12:00 p.m. (New York City time) within the time periods set forth in Section 3.2(a)(i) (or such later date as the Administrative
Agent and Lenders funding Loans on such Credit Date may agree). Promptly upon receipt by Administrative Agent of any Funding Notice,
Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed borrowing.

 

(iii)         Each
Lender shall make its Loan available to Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the applicable Credit
Date, by wire transfer of same day funds in Dollars, at Administrative Agent’s clearing account at Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
Account No. 2000025192043. Upon satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent specified herein, Administrative Agent shall make
the proceeds of the Loans available to the Borrower on the applicable Credit Date by causing an amount of same day funds in Dollars equal
to the proceeds of all such Loans received by Administrative Agent from Lenders (less any agreed upon amounts to be retained for
payments allocable under Section 2.3(a)(iv) and 2.3(a)(v)) to be credited to the account of the Borrower in accordance
with Section 2.1(d), provided that the Administrative Agent may assume such satisfaction or waiver unless otherwise advised by
a Lender prior to making such proceeds available.

 

(d)      
   Deposit of Loan Proceeds. All DIP Loan Proceeds (less any agreed upon amounts to be retained for payments allocable
under Section 2.3(a)(iv) and 2.3(a)(v)) shall be deposited into a Controlled Account in the name of Representative Borrower
located at Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, Account No. 4143384733 (the “Disbursement Account”) on the applicable
Credit Date. Amounts in the Disbursement Account shall only be withdrawn to fund amounts in accordance with the DIP Budget and in accordance
with the use of proceeds restrictions set forth in Section 2.3.

 

2.2         Pro
Rata Share; Availability of Funds.

 

(a)          Pro
Rata Share. All Loans shall be made by the Lenders simultaneously and proportionately to their respective Pro Rata Share, it being
understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in such other Lender’s obligation to make a
Loan requested hereunder nor shall any Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of a default by any other Lender
in such other Lender’s obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder. Each Lender shall be obligated to make the Loans provided
to be made by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Lender to make its Loans.

     32

     

    

(b)          Availability
of Funds. Unless Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the applicable Credit Date that such Lender
does not intend to make available to Administrative Agent the amount of such Lender’s Loan requested on such Credit Date, Administrative
Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to Administrative Agent on such Credit Date and Administrative Agent
may, in its sole discretion, but shall not be obligated to, make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount on such Credit Date.
If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to Administrative Agent by such Lender, Administrative Agent shall be entitled
to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from such Credit Date until
the date such amount is paid to Administrative Agent, at the customary rate set by Administrative Agent for the correction of errors
among banks. In the event that (i) Administrative Agent declines to make a requested amount available to the Borrower until such time
as all applicable Lenders have made payment to Administrative Agent, (ii) a Lender fails to fund to Administrative Agent all or any portion
of the Loans required to be funded by such Lender hereunder prior to the time specified in this Agreement, and (iii) such Lender’s
failure results in Administrative Agent failing to make a corresponding amount available to the Borrower on the Credit Date, at Administrative
Agent’s option, such Lender shall not receive interest hereunder with respect to the requested amount of such Lender’s Loans
for the period commencing with the time specified in this Agreement for receipt of payment by the Borrower through and including the
time of the Borrower’s receipt of the requested amount. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon Administrative
Agent’s demand therefor, Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding
amount to Administrative Agent. Nothing in this Section 2.2(b) shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill
its Loan Commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by
such Lender hereunder.

 

2.3         Use
of Proceeds.

 

(a)          Loan
Proceeds. The Borrowers shall use the proceeds from the Loans (the “DIP Loan Proceeds”) and the Cash Collateral
for only the following purposes, in each case subject to the DIP Budget and the DIP Financing Orders:

 

(i)   
       for working capital and general corporate purposes of the Borrowers;

 

(ii)   
     contributions to the Subsidiary Owners in aggregate amount not to exceed US$10,000,000 (the “Subsidiary Contribution
Funds”), provided, that (A) such Subsidiary Contribution Funds shall be used in accordance with, and for the specific
purposes set forth in, the DIP Budget (which DIP Budget shall reflect the amounts and dates when due of any expenses paid using Subsidiary
Contribution Funds), (B) such Subsidiary Contribution Funds shall be used for such specified purposes within two (2) Business Days of
contribution to any Subsidiary of Borrower and (C) Borrower shall certify to the Lenders in the relevant DIP Budget Variance Report that
such Subsidiary Contribution Funds were used to pay such specified expenses;

 

(iii)   
     pay interest, premiums and fees payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents;

 

(iv)        to
pay costs, fees and expenses incurred by the Agents and the Lenders, in each case, in connection with the Loan Documents and the Restructuring
Support Agreement as provided herein, including as provided in Section 10.2;

     33

     

    

(v)   
     to make payments in respect of the Creditors’ Committee Professional Fees;

 

(vi)   
    to pay restructuring costs and Borrowers’ Professional Fees relating solely to the Borrowers’ Chapter 11 Cases;
and

 

(vii)   
   to fund the Professional Fee Trust Account.

 

(b)         Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no DIP Loan Proceeds, Cash Collateral nor fees, costs and expenses in respect of the Carve-Out
may be used in any manner to:

 

(i)          make
contributions or loans to any Subsidiary of the Borrowers or to pay for any expenses, debt service, loans or other liabilities or obligations
of any Person, including any Subsidiary of the Borrowers, in each case, except in accordance with Section 2.3(a)(ii);

 

(ii)         object,
contest or raise any defense to the validity, perfection, priority, extent or enforceability of any amount due under, or the Liens or
security interests granted under, the Loan Documents;

 

(iii)        investigate,
initiate, assert or prosecute any claims or defenses or commence any cause of action against any Agent or any Lender, or any of each
of their Related Parties under or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

 

(iv)       prevent,
hinder or delay, whether directly or indirectly, Collateral Agent’s assertion or enforcement of its Liens on the Collateral, or
its efforts to realize upon any Collateral under the Loan Documents or exercise any other rights and remedies under the Loan Documents
or applicable law.

 

2.4          Evidence
of Debt; Register; Lenders’ Books and Records; Notes.

 

(a)          Lenders’
Evidence of Debt. Each Lender shall maintain on its internal records an account or accounts evidencing the Obligations of the Borrowers
to such Lender, including the amounts of the Loans made by it and each repayment and prepayment in respect thereof. Any such recordation
shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers, absent manifest error; provided, that, the failure to make any such recordation,
or any error in such recordation, shall not affect the Borrower’s Obligations in respect of any Loan; and provided, further,
in the event of any inconsistency between the Register and any Lender’s records, the recordation in the Register shall govern.

 

(b)          Register.
Administrative Agent (or its agent or sub agent appointed by it) shall maintain at its Principal Office a register for the recordation
of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of (and stated interest on) the Loans owing
to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The Register shall be available for
inspection by the Borrower or any Lender (with respect to (i) any entry relating to such Lender’s Loans, and (ii) the identity
of the other Lenders (but not any information with respect to such other Lenders’ Loans)) at any reasonable time and from time
to time upon reasonable prior notice. Administrative Agent shall record, or shall cause to be recorded, in the Register the Loans in
accordance with the provisions of Section 10.6, and each repayment or prepayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans,
and any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on each Borrower and each Lender, absent manifest error; provided, that
failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Borrower’s Obligations in respect
of any Loan. Each Borrower hereby designates Administrative Agent to serve as such Borrower’s non-fiduciary agent solely for purposes
of maintaining the Register as provided in this Section 2.4 and Section 10.6, and such Borrower hereby agrees that, to
the extent Administrative Agent serves in such capacity, Administrative Agent and its officers, Directors, employees, agents, sub-agents,
and affiliates shall constitute “Indemnitees.”

     34

     

    

(c)          Notes.
At the request of any Lender at any time, the Borrowers shall execute and deliver a Note or Notes to such Lender (and/or, if applicable
and if so specified in such notice, to any Person who is an assignee of such Lender pursuant to Section 10.6) to evidence such
Lender’s Loans.

 

2.5         Interest
on Loans.

 

(a)         Except
as otherwise set forth herein, each Loan shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the applicable Credit Date until
the maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) thereof at a rate per annum equal to 15.00%.

 

(b)       
  Interest payable pursuant to Section 2.5(a) shall be computed on the basis of a 365/366-day year, for the actual number
of days elapsed from (and including) the last occurring Interest Payment Date (or if no Interest Payment Date has yet occurred, the Closing
Date) to, but excluding, the immediately succeeding Interest Payment Date (the “Interest Accrual Period”). In computing
interest on any Loan, the date of the making of such Loan and the last Interest Payment Date with respect to such Loan shall be included,
and the date of payment of such Loan shall be excluded; provided, if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one
day’s interest shall be paid on that Loan.

 

(c)         Except
as otherwise set forth herein, interest on each Loan shall accrue on a daily basis and shall be payable (i) in kind in arrears on each
Interest Payment Date, and such interest shall be capitalized and added to the principal amount of such Loan on such date; (ii) in cash
upon any prepayment of such Loan, whether voluntary or mandatory, in accordance with Section 2.13(a)(iii); and (iii) in cash at
the maturity of the Loans (other than with respect to a Common Stock Conversion). From and after each applicable Interest Payment Date,
any and all interest paid in kind shall constitute and increase the outstanding principal amount of the Loans for all purposes under
this Agreement, and shall bear interest in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement applicable to the Loans.

 

2.6         [Reserved].

 

2.7         Default
Interest.   Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the principal amount of all Loans outstanding and, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, any interest payments on the Loans or any fees or other amounts owed hereunder, shall thereafter
bear interest (including Post-Petition interest in any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws) at a rate that is 2.0% per annum in excess
of the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder with respect to the Loans (the “Default Rate”) and shall be payable
(i) in kind in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, and such interest shall be capitalized and added to the principal amount of such
Loan on such date; (ii) in cash upon any prepayment of such Loan, whether voluntary or mandatory, in accordance with Section 2.13(a)(ii);
and (iii) in cash at the maturity of the Loans (other than with respect to a Common Stock Conversion).

     35

     

    

2.8             
Agent Fee. The Borrowers shall pay to the Agent the fees as set forth on Exhibit B to the Agent Fee Letter on the following
dates: (i) on the Closing Date, the one-time set-up fee in the amount of $3,000 and the first installment of the monthly fee, in the
amount of $6,000 and (ii) on the dates commencing each thirty (30) day period after the Closing Date, an amount equal to $6,000 in respect
of the monthly fee. Such fees shall in all respects be fully earned when paid and non-refundable and non-creditable thereafter.

 

 

2.9         Repayments.
To the extent not previously repaid, the Borrower shall repay to the Lenders on the Termination Date in cash the aggregate principal
amount of all Loans and all other Obligations outstanding on such date, including all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and any outstanding
fees; provided, that the Obligations will be deemed satisfied in full and discharged in the event that the Obligations are converted
into common stock of the Reorganized Company in accordance with the Approved Plan (the “Common Stock Conversion”).
Except in connection with a Common Stock Conversion, any confirmation order entered in the Chapter 11 Cases will not discharge or otherwise
affect in any way any of the obligations of the Borrowers to pay the Obligations in accordance with the Loan Documents.

 

2.10     
   Voluntary Prepayments.

 

(a)       At
any time and from time to time the Borrower shall have the right to prepay the Loans on any Business Day in whole or in part and, if
in part, in an aggregate minimum amount of US$1,000,000 and integral multiples of US$100,000 in excess thereof, plus the Make-Whole Amount
(if applicable), fees and compensation otherwise owing to Lenders under this Agreement.

 

(b)      All
such voluntary prepayments shall be made upon not less than two (2) Business Days’ prior written notice (or such shorter period
as is otherwise agreed to by Administrative Agent), given to Administrative Agent by 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date required.
Upon the giving of any such notice, the principal amount of the Loans specified in such notice shall become due and payable on the prepayment
date specified therein. Any such voluntary prepayment shall be applied as specified in Section 2.13(a) with respect to Loans.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any notice of prepayment delivered in connection with any refinancing may be, if expressly so stated to
be, contingent upon the consummation of such refinancing and may be revoked by the Borrower in the event such refinancing is not consummated.

net proceeds, Make-Whole Amount (with respect to Section 2.11(d)) fees and compensation otherwise owing to Lenders under this
Agreement, if any, as the case may be. In the event that the Borrower shall subsequently determine that the actual amount received exceeded
the amount set forth in such certificate, the Borrower shall promptly make an additional prepayment of the Loans in an amount equal to
such excess, and the Borrower shall concurrently therewith deliver to Administrative Agent a certificate of an Authorized Officer demonstrating
the derivation of such excess.

 

2.12       Make-Whole
Payment. In the event that (a) all or any portion of the Loans are repaid (or repriced or effectively refinanced through any amendment
to the DIP Facility) other than in connection with a mandatory repayment under Section 2.11(b) or (b) all or any portion of the
Commitments are voluntarily reduced or terminated, in each case (i) prior to the Scheduled Maturity Date (except in connection with an
Approved Plan) and (ii) in connection with (A) any financing or refinancing of the Loans provided by any Person who is not Lender or
an Affiliate of Lender or an acquisition by any Person who is not Lender or an Affiliate of Lender of any direct or indirect interest
in any Borrower or any Subsidiaries of any Borrower, or (B) the exercise by any Borrower of its right to terminate the Restructuring
Support Agreement under Section 11.1(a)(iii) thereof, then such prepayment of the Loans and/or reduction or termination of the Commitments
shall be accompanied by the payment of the Make-Whole Amount.

 

2.13       Application
of Prepayments.

 

(a)          Prepayments.
Any prepayments of Loans pursuant to Sections 2.10 or 2.11 shall be applied, subject to any obligation to fund the Professional
Fee Trust Account pursuant to the DIP Financing Orders, as follows:

 

(i)           first,
to the payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and all expenses specified in Section 10.2, in
each case to the full extent thereof, payable in accordance with the Loan Documents to the Agent in its capacity as such and to the Lenders,
in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Share in proportion to respective amounts described in this clause first payable
to them;

 

(ii)          second,
to the payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting any accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans payable at the Default Rate,
if any, to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Share in proportion to respective amounts described in this clause
second payable to them;

     38

     

    

(iii)       third,
to the payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting any accrued and unpaid interest (other than Default Rate interest payable
pursuant to clause second) on the Loans to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Share in proportion to respective
amounts described in this clause third payable to them;

 

(iv)   
    fourth, to the payment of the Make-Whole Amount, if applicable;

 

(v)        fifth,
to the payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal in respect of the Loans to the Lenders in accordance
with their respective Pro Rata Share (in accordance with the respective outstanding principal amounts thereof); and

 

(vi)       sixth,
to the payment of any other outstanding Obligations.

 

2.14       General
Provisions Regarding Payments.

 

(a)           Except
as otherwise provided herein, all payments by the Borrower of principal, interest, fees and other Obligations shall be made in Dollars
(other than in the event of the Common Stock Conversion) in immediately available funds, without defense, recoupment, set-off or counterclaim,
free of any restriction or condition, and delivered to Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date
due by wire transfer to an account designated by Administrative Agent from time to time that is maintained by Administrative Agent or
its Affiliates for the account of the Lenders or Administrative Agent. For purposes of computing interest and fees, funds received by
Administrative Agent after that time on such due date shall be deemed to have been paid by the Borrower on the next succeeding Business
Day.

 

(b)           All
payments in respect of the principal amount of any Loan shall be accompanied by payment of accrued, uncapitalized interest, if applicable,
and the Make-Whole Amount (to the extent applicable) on any principal amount being repaid or prepaid, and all such payments shall be
applied in accordance with Sections 2.13(a)(i) through 2.13(a)(vi).

 

(c)           Administrative
Agent (or its agent or sub-agent appointed by it) shall promptly distribute to each Lender at such address as such Lender shall indicate
in writing, such Lender’s applicable Pro Rata Share of all payments and prepayments of principal and interest made hereunder, together
with all other amounts due thereto (including such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Make-Whole Amount, if applicable), including
all fees payable with respect thereto, to the extent received by Administrative Agent.

 

(d)          Whenever
any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next
succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the payment of interest hereunder.

 

(e)           Administrative
Agent shall deem any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower hereunder that is not made in same day funds prior to 12:00 p.m. (New York
City time) to be a non-conforming payment. Any such payment shall not be deemed to have been received by Administrative Agent until the
later of (i) the time such funds become available funds, and (ii) the applicable next Business Day. Administrative Agent shall give prompt
written notice to the Borrower and each applicable Lender if any payment is non-conforming. Any non-conforming payment may constitute
or become a Default or Event of Default in accordance with the terms of Section 8.1(a). Interest shall continue to accrue on any
principal as to which a non-conforming payment is made at the Default Rate from the date such amount was due and payable until the date
such funds become available funds (but in no event less than the period from the date of such payment to the next succeeding applicable
Business Day).

     39

     

    

(f)       
  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and not otherwise been waived, and the Obligations have become due and payable in full
hereunder, whether by acceleration, maturity or otherwise, all payments or proceeds received by any Agent hereunder or under any Collateral
Document in respect of any of the Obligations, including all proceeds received by any Agent in respect of any sale, any collection from,
or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral, shall be applied, subject to Section 10.7, in full or in part as
follows: first, to the payment of all costs and expenses of such sale, collection or other realization, including reasonable compensation
to each Agent and its agents and counsel, and all other expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by any Agent in connection
therewith, and all amounts for which any Agent is entitled to indemnification hereunder or under any Collateral Document (in its capacity
as an Agent and not as a Lender), and to the payment of all costs and expenses paid or incurred by any Agent in connection with the exercise
of any right or remedy hereunder or under any Collateral Document, all in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof; second,
to the extent of any excess of such proceeds, to the payment of all other Obligations for the ratable benefit of the Lenders; and third,
to the extent of any excess of such proceeds, to the payment to or upon the order of the grantor of the Collateral or to whosoever may
be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

 

2.15       Ratable
Sharing. Lenders hereby agree among themselves that, if any of them shall, whether by voluntary payment
(other than a voluntary prepayment of Loans made and applied in accordance with the terms hereof), through the exercise of any right
of set-off or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any right under the Loan Documents or otherwise,
or as adequate protection of a deposit treated as cash collateral under the Bankruptcy Code, receive payment or reduction of a proportion
of the aggregate amount of principal, interest, amounts payable in respect of fees and any other amounts then due and owing to such Lender
hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (collectively, the “Aggregate Amounts Due” to such Lender) that is greater
than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the Aggregate Amounts Due to such other Lender, then the Lender receiving
such proportionately greater payment shall (a) notify Administrative Agent and each other Lender of the receipt of such payment and (b)
apply a portion of such payment to purchase participations (which it shall be deemed to have purchased from each seller of a participation
simultaneously upon the receipt by such seller of its portion of such payment) in the Aggregate Amounts Due to the other Lenders so that
all such recoveries of Aggregate Amounts Due shall be shared by all Lenders in proportion to the Aggregate Amounts Due to them; provided,
if all or part of such proportionately greater payment received by such purchasing Lender is thereafter recovered from such Lender upon
the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or otherwise, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such
participations shall be returned to such purchasing Lender ratably to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. The Borrower
expressly consents to the foregoing arrangement and agrees that any holder of a participation so purchased may exercise any and all rights
of banker’s lien, consolidation, set-off or counterclaim with respect to any and all monies owing by the Borrower with respect
to that participation as fully as if that holder were a direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of such participation. The provisions
of this Section 2.15 shall not be construed to apply to (a) any payment made by any Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with
the express terms of any Loan Document or (b) any payment obtained by any Lender as consideration for the assignment or sale of a participation
in any of its Loans or other Obligations owed to it.

     40

     

    

2.16       Increased
Costs; Capital Adequacy.

 

(a)          Compensation
for Increased Costs and Taxes. In the event that any Lender shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be
final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that any Change in Law: (i) subjects such Lender to any additional Taxes (other
than (1) any Taxes imposed on or measured by net income of such Lender or that are franchise Taxes or branch profits Taxes, (2) Indemnified
Taxes or (3) Taxes described in clauses (a) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes) with respect to this Agreement or any of
the other Loan Documents or any of its Obligations hereunder or thereunder or any payments to such Lender of principal, interest, fees
or other amount payable hereunder; (ii) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance
charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender;
or (iii) imposes on such Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this
Agreement or Loans made by such Lender; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making, continuing
or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable
by such Lender (whether of principal, interest or any other amount); then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly pay to such
Lender, upon receipt of the statement referred to in the next sentence, such additional amount or amounts (in the form of an increased
rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender in its sole discretion shall determine) as may be
necessary to compensate such Lender for any such increased cost or reduction in amounts received or receivable hereunder. Such Lender
shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis
for calculating the additional amounts owed to such Lender under this Section 2.16(a), which statement shall be conclusive and binding
upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.

 

(b)       
     Capital Adequacy and Liquidity Adjustment. In the event that any Lender shall have determined (which determination
shall, absent manifest error be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that (i) any Change in Law regarding capital
adequacy or liquidity, or (ii) compliance by any Lender (or its applicable lending office) or any company controlling such Lender with
any Change in Law regarding capital adequacy or liquidity, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital
of such Lender or any company controlling such Lender as a consequence of, or with reference to, such Lender’s Loans or other obligations
hereunder with respect to the Loans to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling company could have achieved but for such
Change in Law (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender or such controlling company with regard to capital adequacy and
liquidity), then from time to time, within five Business Days after receipt by the Borrower from such Lender of the statement referred
to in the next sentence, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such
controlling company for such reduction. Such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent) a written statement,
setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to Lender under this Section 2.16(b),
which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.

     41

     

    

(c)          Delay
in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall not constitute
a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate
a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.16 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to
the date that such Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions,
and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased
costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive
effect thereof).

 

2.17       Taxes;
Withholding, Etc.

 

(a)          Payments
Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers hereunder and under the other Loan Documents
shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined
in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment
by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely
pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is
an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding
has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Lender or the
Agent, as applicable, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

 

(b)          Evidence
of Exemption From U.S. Withholding Tax. Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of U.S. withholding Tax with
respect to payments made under this Agreement or under the other Loan Documents shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent prior
to funding or otherwise acquiring an interest in any Loan, and at the time or times thereafter upon reasonable request of Borrower or
Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as
will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding, including Internal Revenue Service Forms
W-8 or W-9 and customary certificates (each, a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) to establish an exemption under
the “portfolio interest exemption” substantially in the form of Exhibit F-1, F-2, F-3, or F-4, as applicable. In addition,
any Lender, if reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable
law or reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as will enable Borrower or Administrative Agent to determine whether
or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than the applicable Internal Revenue
Service Form W-8 or W-9 or U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion,
execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal
or commercial position of such Lender. Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this
Section 2.17 expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly
notify the Borrower and Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

     42

     

    

(c)       
FATCA. If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA
if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b)
or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and Administrative Agent at the time
or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or Administrative Agent such documentation
prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation
reasonably requested by the Borrower or Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and Administrative Agent to comply
with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or
to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this paragraph (c), “FATCA” shall
include any amendments made to FATCA after the date hereof.

 

(d)        Payment
of Other Taxes by the Borrower. Without limiting the provisions of Section 2.17(b), the Borrower shall timely pay all Other
Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authorities in accordance with applicable law. The Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent
official receipts or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent in respect of any Other Taxes payable
hereunder promptly after payment of such Other Taxes.

 

(e)         Indemnification
by Borrowers. Without duplication of any amounts paid pursuant to Section 2.17(a), the Borrowers shall indemnify Administrative
Agent and any Lender, within 10 calendar days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including any Indemnified
Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.17) paid or payable by Administrative Agent
or Lender or any of their respective Affiliates, as applicable, or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to Administrative
Agent or Lender or any of their respective Affiliates, as applicable, (in each case, excluding penalties and interest attributable solely
to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the applicable recipient) and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect
thereto, whether or not such Indemnified 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 any Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent), or by the
Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of any Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

(f)          Indemnification
by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify Administrative Agent, within 10 calendar days after demand therefor, for (i)
any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified Administrative
Agent therefor and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure
to comply with the provisions of Section 10.6(h)(i) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded
Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document
and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such 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 any Lender
by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to set-off and
apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by Administrative Agent to such
Lender from any other source against any amount due to Administrative Agent under this paragraph (f).

     43

     

    
(g)          Treatment
of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any
Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.17 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant
to this Section 2.17), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity
payments made under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses
(including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority
with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party
the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental
Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying
party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position
than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted,
withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This
paragraph (g) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating
to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

 

(h)          Evidence
of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section
2.17, such Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental
Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory
to Administrative Agent.

 

(i)       
    Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.17, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

 

(j)       
  Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.17 shall survive the resignation or replacement of
Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment,
satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

     44

     

    

2.18       Obligation
to Mitigate. Each Lender agrees that, if such Lender requests payment under Section 2.16 or 2.17, then such Lender
will, to the extent not inconsistent with the internal policies of such Lender and any applicable legal or regulatory restrictions, use
reasonable efforts to make, fund or maintain its Credit Extensions, through another office of such Lender if, as a result thereof, the
additional amounts payable to such Lender pursuant to Section 2.16 or 2.17, as the case may be, in the future would be
eliminated or reduced and if, as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, the making, funding or maintaining of Loans through
such other office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise adversely affect such Loans or the
interests of such Lender; provided, such Lender will not be obligated to utilize such other office pursuant to this Section
2.18 unless the Borrowers agree to pay all reasonable and documented incremental expenses incurred by such Lender as a result of
utilizing such other office as described above. A certificate as to the amount of any such incremental expenses payable by the Borrowers
pursuant to this Section 2.18 (setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount) submitted by such Lender
to the Borrowers (with a copy to Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

2.19       Security
and Priority. The Payment in Full of all Obligations, will be secured as provided in the Collateral Documents. Each DIP Secured Party,
by its acceptance thereof, consents and agrees to the terms of the Collateral Documents as the same may be in effect or may be amended
from time to time in accordance with their respective terms. Each of the Borrowers consents and agrees to be bound by the terms of the
Collateral Documents, as the same may be in effect from time to time, and agrees to perform its obligations thereunder in accordance
therewith. Each of the Borrowers will take any and all actions required by the Collateral Documents to create and maintain, as security
for the Obligations, a valid and enforceable perfected Lien in and on all the Collateral in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit
of the DIP Secured Parties with the Lien priority required below.

 

(a)       
    The Liens on the Collateral (for the avoidance of doubt, the Collateral shall not include any Excluded Assets or other assets
excluded under Section 2.2 of the Pledge and Security Agreement) consist of:

 

(i)        pursuant
to section 364(c)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, a valid, binding, continuing, enforceable, fully perfected first priority security interest
and Lien on all Collateral that, as of the Petition Date, was not subject to a valid, perfected and non-avoidable Lien (including valid
liens in existence on the Petition Date that are perfected after the Petition Date as permitted by section 546(b) of the Bankruptcy Code
(the “Permitted Priority Liens”)) and the proceeds (as defined under the UCC) thereof; and

 

(ii)       pursuant
to section 364(c)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code, a valid, binding, continuing, enforceable, fully perfected junior security interest and
Lien on all Collateral, which shall be junior to any Permitted Priority Liens.

 

(b)       
   Pursuant to the terms of the DIP Financing Orders, all Obligations under this Agreement shall (i) pursuant to section 364(c)(1)
of the Bankruptcy Code, be entitled to Super-priority Claim status in the Chapter 11 Case of each Borrower (together with the Liens on
the Collateral, the “DIP Protections”), which shall be senior to all other administrative expense claims and unsecured
claims now existing or hereafter arising under the Bankruptcy Code, subject only to the terms of the DIP Financing Orders and subject
and subordinate in priority of payment only to prior payment of the Carve-Out and (ii) not be subject to the equitable doctrine of marshaling.

     45

     

    

(c)       Subject
to the entry of the Final DIP Financing Order, the DIP Protections shall not be subject to any rights, claims, charges or Liens arising
under section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code. The DIP Protections shall survive any conversion of any of the Chapter 11 Cases to a case
under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code or the dismissal of any of the Chapter 11 Cases.

 

(d)       The
Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Lenders) shall be entitled to challenge the amount, validity and perfection of any Lien
or security interest filed against any Borrower that relates to the Collateral that purports to be senior to any Lien thereon, including,
but not limited to, any Lien or security interest that, if found to be valid, enforceable, non-revocable and perfected, would constitute
a Permitted Priority Lien.

SECTION
9. AGENTS

 

9.1          Appointment
of Agents. Trimont Real Estate Advisors, LLC is hereby appointed Administrative Agent and Collateral
Agent hereunder and under each other Loan Document, and each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes Trimont Real Estate Advisors, LLC,
in such capacity, to act as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms hereof and the other Loan Documents.
Each Agent hereby agrees to act in its capacity as such upon the express conditions contained herein and the other Loan Documents, as
applicable. The provisions of this Section 9 are solely for the benefit of the Agents and Lenders and no Borrower shall have any
rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions thereof. In performing its functions and duties hereunder, each Agent shall
act solely as an agent of Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or relationship
of agency or trust with or for any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. Each Agent, without consent of or notice to any party hereto,
may assign any and all of its rights or obligations hereunder to any of its Affiliates. It is understood and agreed that the use of the
term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to Administrative Agent or
Collateral Agent 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 as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative
relationship between contracting parties.

     82

     

    

9.2         Powers
and Duties. Each Lender irrevocably authorizes each Agent to take such action on such Lender’s
behalf and to exercise such powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents as are specifically delegated or
granted to such Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers, rights and remedies as are reasonably incidental thereto.
In the event that any obligations are permitted to be incurred and subordinated in right of payment to the Obligations hereunder and/or
are permitted to be secured by Liens on all or a portion of the Collateral, each Lender authorizes Administrative Agent and Collateral
Agent, as applicable, to enter into intercreditor agreements, subordination agreements and amendments to the Collateral Documents to
reflect such arrangements on terms that are acceptable to Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, in their respective sole discretion,
as applicable. Each Agent shall have only those duties and responsibilities that are expressly specified herein and the other Loan Documents.
Each Agent may exercise such powers, rights and remedies and perform such duties by or through its agents or employees. No Agent shall
have, by reason hereof or any of the other Loan Documents, a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender or any other Person; and
nothing herein or any of the other Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon any
Agent any obligations in respect hereof or any of the other Loan Documents except as expressly set forth herein or therein.

 

9.3         General
Immunity.

 

(a)     No
Responsibility for Certain Matters. No Agent shall be responsible to any Lender for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity,
enforceability, collectability or sufficiency hereof or any other Loan 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 Agent to Lenders or by or on behalf of any Borrower to any Agent or any Lender in connection
with the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby or for the financial condition or business affairs of any Borrower
or any other Person liable for the payment of any Obligations, nor shall any Agent 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 Loan Documents or as to the
use of the proceeds of the Loans or as to the existence or possible existence of any Event of Default or Default or as to the value or
sufficiency of any Collateral or as to the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 3 or elsewhere herein (other than
confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent) or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Borrower
or any of its Subsidiaries or to make any disclosures with respect to the foregoing. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding,
Administrative Agent shall not have any liability arising from confirmations of the amount of outstanding Loans or the component amounts
thereof.

     83

     

    

(b)    Exculpatory
Provisions. No Agent nor any of its officers, partners, Directors, employees or agents shall be liable to Lenders for any action
taken or omitted by any Agent (i) under or in connection with any of the Loan Documents, or (ii) with the consent or at the request of
the Requisite Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or any other instructing group of Lenders specified by this
Agreement), in each case except to the extent caused by such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a
final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. No Agent shall, except as expressly set forth herein and in the
other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose or be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or
any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by such Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. Each Agent 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 Loan Documents or from the exercise of any power, discretion or authority vested in it hereunder or thereunder unless and
until such Agent shall have received instructions in respect thereof from Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required
to give such instructions under Section 10.5) and, upon receipt of such instructions from Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders,
as the case may be), such Agent 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, including for the avoidance of doubt refraining from any action that, in its opinion
or the opinion of its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability, is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law or may be in violation
of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law. Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, (1) 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 the Borrowers), accountants, experts and other professional advisors selected by
it; and (2) no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against any Agent as a result of such Agent acting or (where so instructed)
refraining from acting hereunder or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of Requisite Lenders (or such
other Lenders as may be required to give such instructions under Section 10.5).

 

(c)     Delegation
of Duties. Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers under this Agreement or
under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent 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 Section 9.3 and of Section 9.5 shall apply to any the Affiliates
of Administrative Agent and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided
for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. All of the rights, benefits, and privileges (including the exculpatory and
indemnification provisions) of this Section 9.3 and of Section 9.5 shall apply to any such sub-agent 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 Agent, (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 Borrowers and the Lenders, (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 Agent and not to any Borrower, Lender or any other Person and no Borrower,
Lender or any other Person shall have any rights, directly or indirectly, as a third party beneficiary or otherwise, against such sub-agent.
Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of
competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful
misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

     84

     

    

(d)     Notice
of Default or Event of Default. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written
notice describing such Default or Event of Default is given to such Agent by a Borrower or a Lender. In the event that Administrative
Agent shall receive such a notice, Administrative Agent will endeavor to give notice thereof to the Lenders; provided that failure
to give such notice shall not result in any liability on the part of Administrative Agent.

or any such appraisal on behalf of Lenders or to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether
coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter, and no Agent shall have any responsibility
with respect to the accuracy of or the completeness of any information provided to Lenders.

any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (i) are found in a final,
non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to (x) have resulted from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct
of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by any Borrower against an Indemnitee for material breach of such Indemnitee’s
obligations under the Loan Documents or (ii) result from a dispute solely among Indemnitees (other than any claims against an Indemnitee
in its capacity or in fulfilling its role as an Administrative Agent or arranger or any similar role under the Loan Documents or any
claims arising out of any act or omission of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates).

     85

sub-agent or its Related Party), each Lender severally agrees to pay to such Agent (or any such sub-agent or its Related Party) such

of such unpaid amount, provided, that the unreimbursed fee, expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense,
as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Agent (or any such sub-agent or its Related Party).

 

9.6         Successor
Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent.

 

(a)     Administrative
Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) calendar days’ prior written notice thereof to Lenders and the Borrower. Administrative
Agent shall have the right to appoint a financial institution to act as successor Administrative Agent hereunder in such notice, subject
to the reasonable satisfaction of the Borrower and the Requisite Lenders, and Administrative Agent’s resignation shall become effective
on the earliest of (i) thirty (30) calendar days after delivery of the notice of resignation (regardless of whether a successor has been
appointed or not), (ii) the acceptance of such successor Administrative Agent by the Borrower and the Requisite Lenders or (iii) such
other date, if any, agreed to by the Requisite Lenders. Upon any such notice of resignation, if a successor Administrative Agent has
not already been appointed by the resigning Administrative Agent, then the Requisite Lenders shall have the right, upon five Business
Days’ notice to the Borrower, to appoint a successor Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent. If neither the Requisite Lenders
nor Administrative Agent have appointed a successor Administrative Agent, then the Requisite Lenders shall be deemed to have succeeded
to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the resigning Administrative Agent automatically upon the
effectiveness of such resignation; provided that, until a successor Administrative Agent is so appointed by the Requisite Lenders
or Administrative Agent, any collateral security held by Administrative Agent in its role as Collateral Agent on behalf of the Lenders
under any of the Loan Documents shall continue to be held by the resigning Collateral Agent as nominee until such time as a successor
Collateral Agent is appointed. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative
Agent, that successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties
of the resigning Administrative Agent, and the resigning Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder
and under the other Loan Documents and all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative
Agent shall be made by or to the successor Administrative Agent. Except as provided above, any resignation of Trimont Real Estate Advisors,
LLC or its successor as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 9.6 shall also constitute the resignation of Trimont Real
Estate Advisors, LLC or its successor as Collateral Agent. After any resigning Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as
Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken
by it while it was Administrative Agent hereunder. Any successor Administrative Agent appointed pursuant to this Section 9.6 shall,
automatically upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Collateral Agent for all purposes hereunder.

     86

     

    

(b)     In
addition to the foregoing, Collateral Agent may resign at any time by giving prior written notice thereof to Lenders. Collateral Agent
shall have the right to appoint a financial institution as Collateral Agent hereunder, subject to the reasonable satisfaction of the
Borrower and the Requisite Lenders and Collateral Agent’s resignation shall become effective on the earliest of (i) 30 calendar
days after delivery of the notice of resignation, (ii) the acceptance of such successor Collateral Agent by the Borrower and the Requisite
Lenders or (iii) such other date, if any, agreed to by the Requisite Lenders. Upon any such notice of resignation or any such removal,
if a successor Collateral Agent has not already been appointed by the resigning Administrative Agent, then Requisite Lenders shall have
the right, upon five Business Days’ notice to Administrative Agent, to appoint a successor Collateral Agent. Until a successor
Collateral Agent is so appointed by Requisite Lenders or Administrative Agent, any collateral security held by Collateral Agent for the
benefit of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents shall continue to be held by the resigning Collateral Agent as nominee until such
time as a successor Collateral Agent is appointed. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Collateral Agent hereunder by a successor
Collateral Agent, that successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges
and duties of the resigning or removed Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the Collateral Documents, and the resigning or removed
Collateral Agent under this Agreement shall promptly (1) transfer to such successor Collateral Agent all sums, Securities and other items
of Collateral held hereunder or under the Collateral Documents, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate
in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the Collateral Documents
and (2) execute and deliver to such successor Collateral Agent or otherwise authorize the filing of such amendments to financing statements,
and take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor Collateral Agent
of the security interests created under the Collateral Documents, whereupon such resigning or removed Collateral Agent shall be discharged
from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the Collateral Documents. After any resigning or removed Collateral Agent’s
resignation or removal hereunder as Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Agreement and the Collateral Documents shall inure to its
benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement or the Collateral Documents while it was Collateral
Agent hereunder.

 

(c)     Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent may assign their rights and duties as Administrative Agent
and Collateral Agent hereunder to an Affiliate of Trimont Real Estate Advisors, LLC without the prior written consent of, or prior written
notice to, the Borrower or the Lenders; provided that the Borrower and the Lenders may deem and treat such assigning Administrative
Agent and Collateral Agent as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent for all purposes hereof, unless and until such assigning Administrative
Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, provides written notice to the Borrower and the Lenders of such assignment. Upon such
assignment such Affiliate shall succeed to and become vested with all rights, powers, privileges and duties as Administrative Agent and
Collateral Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.

     87

     

    

(d)    Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, in the event Trimont Real Estate Advisors, LLC resigns or is replaced as Administrative Agent
or Collateral Agent, each of the provisions contained herein for the benefit and protection of any Agent, including but not limited to,
indemnification, exculpation, releases and waivers shall continue and remain in full force and effect in respect of any actions taken
or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent or retiring Collateral Agent was acting as Administrative
Agent or Collateral Agent, respectively.

 

9.7         Collateral
Documents.

 

(a)     Agents
under Collateral Documents. Each Lender hereby further authorizes Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, on behalf
of and for the benefit of DIP Secured Parties, to be the agent for and representative of the DIP Secured Parties with respect to the
Collateral and the Collateral Documents. Subject to Section 10.5, without further written consent or authorization from any DIP
Secured Party, Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable may execute any documents or instruments necessary to, in connection
with a sale or Disposition of assets permitted by this Agreement, release any Lien encumbering any item of Collateral that is the subject
of such sale or other Disposition of assets or to which Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such consent
under Section 10.5) have otherwise consented. Upon request by Administrative Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing
Administrative Agent’s authority to release its interest in particular types or items of Collateral.

 

(b)     Right
to Realize on Collateral. Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower, Administrative
Agent, Collateral Agent and each DIP Secured Party hereby agree that (i) no DIP Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize
upon any of the Collateral, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under any of the other
Loan Documents may be exercised solely by Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, for the benefit of the DIP Secured
Parties in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof and all powers, rights and remedies under the Collateral Documents may be exercised
solely by Collateral Agent for the benefit of DIP Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof, and (ii) in the event of a foreclosure
or similar enforcement action by Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition
(including pursuant to Section 363(k), Section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii), or otherwise of the Bankruptcy Code), Collateral Agent or any Lender
may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or disposition and Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative
of DIP Secured Parties, shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all
or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the
purchase price for any collateral payable by Collateral Agent at such sale or other disposition.

 

(c)     Release
of Collateral, Termination of Loan Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or any other Loan Document,
when all Obligations have been Paid in Full, upon request of the Borrower, Administrative Agent shall (without notice to, or vote or
consent of, any Lender) take such actions as shall be required to release its security interest in all Collateral.

     88

     

    

(d)    No
Duty. Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding
the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of Collateral Agent’s Lien thereon,
or any certificate prepared by any Borrower in connection therewith, nor shall Collateral Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders
for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.

 

(e)    Agency
for Perfection. Each Agent and each Lender hereby appoints each other Agent and each other Lender as agent and bailee for the purpose
of perfecting the security interests in and liens upon the Collateral in assets that, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC, can be
perfected only by possession or control (or where the security interest of a DIP Secured Party with possession or control has priority
over the security interest of another DIP Secured Party) and each Agent and each Lender hereby acknowledges that it holds possession
of or otherwise controls any such Collateral for the benefit of the other DIP Secured Parties, except as otherwise expressly provided
in this Agreement. Should Administrative Agent or any Lender obtain possession or control of any such Collateral, Administrative Agent
or such Lender shall notify Collateral Agent thereof, and, promptly upon Collateral Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such
Collateral to Collateral Agent or in accordance with Collateral Agent’s instructions. Each Borrower by its execution and delivery
of this Agreement hereby consents to the foregoing.

 

9.8          Administrative
Agent May File Bankruptcy Disclosure and Proofs of Claim; Credit Bidding.
In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws relative to any Borrower, including the Chapter 11 Cases, Administrative
Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise
and irrespective of whether Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not
obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

 

(a)     to
file a verified statement pursuant to rule 2019 of the Bankruptcy Rules that, in its sole opinion, complies with such rule’s disclosure
requirements for entities representing more than one creditor;

 

(b)    to
file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations
that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders
and Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative
Agent and its respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due to the Lenders and Administrative Agent under Sections 2.8,
10.2 and 10.3 allowed in such judicial proceeding); and

 

(c)     to
collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; 

 

and
any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby
authorized by each Lender to make such payments to Administrative Agent and, in the event that Administrative Agent shall consent to
the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Administrative Agent under Sections
2.8, 10.2 and 10.3.

     89

     

    

Nothing contained in this Section
9.8 shall be deemed to authorize Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan
of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize Administrative
Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

 

The DIP Secured Parties hereby
irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Requisite Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the Obligations
(including accepting some or all of the Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the Obligations pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure
or otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral
(a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, including under Sections 363, 1123
or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, or any similar laws in any other jurisdictions to which a Borrower is subject, (b)
at any other sale or foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of)
the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any applicable law. In connection with any such
credit bid and purchase, the Obligations owed to the DIP Secured Parties shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid on a ratable
basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a
ratable basis that would vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent
claim amount used in allocating the contingent interests) in the asset or assets so purchased (or in the Equity Interests or debt instruments
of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are used to consummate such purchase). In connection with any such bid (i) the Administrative
Agent shall be authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles to make a bid, (ii) to adopt documents providing for the governance
of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (provided that any actions by the Administrative Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle
or vehicles, including any disposition of the assets or Equity Interests thereof shall be governed, directly or indirectly, by the vote
of the Requisite Lenders, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement), (iii) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to assign
the relevant Obligations to any such acquisition vehicle pro rata by the Lenders, as a result of which each of the Lenders shall be deemed
to have received a pro rata portion of any Equity Interests and/or debt instruments issued by such an acquisition vehicle on account
of the assignment of the Obligations to be credit bid, all without the need for any DIP Secured Party or acquisition vehicle to take
any further action, and (iv) to the extent that Obligations that are assigned to an acquisition vehicle are not used to acquire Collateral
for any reason (as a result of another bid being higher or better, because the amount of Obligations assigned to the acquisition vehicle
exceeds the amount of debt credit bid by the acquisition vehicle or otherwise), such Obligations shall automatically be reassigned to
the Lenders pro rata and the Equity Interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of the Obligations
that had been assigned to the acquisition vehicle shall automatically be cancelled, without the need for any DIP Secured Party or any
acquisition vehicle to take any further action.

10.3        Indemnity
and Related Reimbursement.

 

(a)     The
Borrowers shall indemnify the Lenders and their Related Parties (each such person being called an “Lender Indemnitee”)
against, and hold each Lender Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related reasonable and documented

regardless of whether any Lender Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Lender Indemnitee,
be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (1) are found in a final, non-appealable
judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to (x) have resulted from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such
Lender Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by any Borrower against a Lender Indemnitee for material breach of such Lender Indemnitee’s
obligations under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document or (2) result from a dispute solely among the Lender Indemnitee.

     93

     

    

(b)     In
the event that an Indemnitee becomes involved in any capacity in any action, proceeding or investigation brought by or against any Person
relating to or arising out of any Indemnified Liabilities and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated,
each Borrower agrees that on demand it will reimburse such Indemnitee for its legal and other expenses (including the cost of any investigation
and preparation) incurred in connection therewith.

 

(c)     To
the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no Borrower shall assert, and each Borrower hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee
on any theory of liability for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) (whether
or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection
with, or as a result of any Related Matter. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients
of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems
in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, except to the extent
the liability of such Indemnitee results from such Indemnitee’s willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction
in a final and non-appealable decision).

 

(d)     Each
Borrower also agrees that no Indemnitee will have any liability to any Borrower or any Person asserting claims on behalf of or in right
of any Borrower or any other Person in connection with or as a result of this Agreement or any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument
contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan, or the use
of the proceeds thereof, or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith, in each case, except in the case of any Borrower
to the extent that any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses incurred by such Borrower or its affiliates, shareholders, partners
or other equity holders have been found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted directly
from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Lender, or Agent in performing its funding obligations under this
Agreement; provided, however, that in no event will any such Lender or Agent have any liability for any indirect, consequential,
special or punitive damages in connection with or as a result of such Lender’s or Agent’s, or their respective Affiliates’,
Directors’, employees’, attorneys’, agents’ or sub-agents’ activities related to or arising from any Related
Matter.

     94

     

    

(e)     Each
Borrower, for itself and on behalf of its Subsidiaries, successors and assigns (collectively, “Releasors” and, individually,
a “Releasor”), hereby RELEASES, ACQUITS AND FOREVER DISCHARGES each of the Lenders, Agents and any of their
respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, representatives, Subsidiaries, Affiliates or shareholders (the “Releasees”)
from any and all liabilities, claims, demands, actions or causes of action of every kind or nature (if any there be), whether absolute
or contingent, due or to become due, disputed or undisputed, liquidated or unliquidated, at law or in equity, or known or unknown, that
any Releasor now has, ever had or hereafter may have against the Releasees based on acts, transactions or circumstances that have occurred
or been consummated on or before the date of the Closing Date and that arise out of or relate to (i) the DIP Facility or any other extension
of credit by the Lenders to the Borrowers and their Affiliates; (ii) any Loan Document or Collateral; (iii) any transaction, act or omission
contemplated by or described in or concluded under any Loan Document; or (iv) any aspect of the dealings or relationships between or
among the Releasors, on the one hand, and the Releasees on the other hand, under or in connection with any Loan Document or any transaction,
act or omission contemplated by or described in or concluded under any Loan Document (collectively, the “Claims”).
The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the termination of the DIP Facility and any other Loan Document and Payment in Full of
any Obligations thereunder. Each Borrower, for itself and on behalf of their successors, assigns and other legal representatives, hereby
unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that such Releasor shall not sue any Releasee on the basis of any Claim released, remised and
discharged pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, and if any Releasor violates the foregoing covenant, such Releasor,
for itself and its successors and assigns, agrees to pay, in addition to such other damages as any Releasee may sustain as a result of
such violation, all attorneys’ fees and cost incurred by any Releasee as a result of such violation.

 

10.4      Set-Off.
In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender, and its respective Affiliates is hereby authorized by each Borrower
at any time or from time to time subject to the consent of Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed),
without notice to any Borrower or to any other Person (other than Administrative Agent), any such notice being hereby expressly waived,
to set-off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever
currency) and any other obligations or Indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of any
Borrower against and on account of the Obligations of any Borrower to such Lender hereunder, and under the other Loan Documents, including
all claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected hereto or with any other Loan Document, irrespective of whether or
not (a) such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder or (b) the principal of or the interest on the Loans or any other amounts due
hereunder shall have become due and payable pursuant to Section 2 and although such Obligations and liabilities, or any of them,
may be contingent or unmatured. The rights of each Lender, and its respective Affiliates under this Section 10.4 are in addition
to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) that such Lender or its Affiliates may otherwise have.

 

10.5        Amendments
and Waivers.

 

(a)     Requisite
Lenders’ Consent. Subject to the additional requirements of Sections 10.5(b) and 10.5(c) or as otherwise provided
in this Agreement, no amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents, or consent to any departure
by any Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless in writing signed by the Requisite Lenders and the Borrower and acknowledged
by Administrative Agent; provided that Administrative Agent may, with the consent of the Borrower (and without any requirement
for consent from any other Person), amend, modify, or supplement this Agreement or any other Loan Document to cure any obvious typographical
error, incorrect cross-reference, defect in form, inconsistency, omission or ambiguity (in each case, as concluded by Administrative
Agent in its sole discretion), so long as the Lenders and the Borrower have received at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written
notice thereof and Administrative Agent has not received, within five (5) Business Days after delivery of such notice, a written notice
from Requisite Lenders and the Borrower stating that the Requisite Lenders and the Borrower object to such amendment.

     95

     

    

(b)            Affected
Lenders’ Consent. Without the written consent of each Lender that would be directly and adversely affected thereby, no amendment,
modification, termination, or consent shall be effective with respect to any Loan Document if the effect thereof would:

 

(i)       increase
or extend the expiration date of any Commitment hereunder without the written consent of such Lender; 

 

(ii)      reduce
the principal amount of, or premium, if any, of any Loan or reduce the interest rate thereon (other than a waiver of Default Rate); 

 

(iii)     postpone
or extend the maturity of the DIP Facility or any Loan, or any date for the payment of interest, premium or fees payable under the Loan
Documents, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment (other than a waiver of Default Rate); 

 

(iv)    alter
any provision relating to the pro rata sharing of payments or set-offs required thereby; or

 

(v)   
  except as expressly permitted under the Loan Documents (including in the context of a credit bid), release all or substantially
all of the Collateral from the Liens created under the Collateral Documents, or alter the priorities of the obligations secured thereby
as set forth in Section 2.19.

 

(c)            Other
Consents. No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents, or consent to any departure by
any Borrower therefrom, shall:

 

(i)      amend
the definition of “Requisite Lenders” without the consent of each directly and adversely affected Lender; provided,
with the consent of Administrative Agent and the Requisite Lenders, additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be
included in the determination of the “Requisite Lenders” on substantially the same basis as the Loan Commitments and
the Loans are included on the Closing Date; or

 

(ii)     amend,
modify, terminate or waive any provision of Section 9 as the same directly applies to any Agent, or any other provision hereof
as the same directly applies to the rights or obligations of any Agent, in each case in any manner adverse to such Agent without the
consent of such Agent.

 

(d)            Execution
of Amendments, Etc. Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, with the concurrence of any Lender, execute amendments,
modifications, waivers or consents on behalf of such Lender. Any waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and
for the specific purpose for which it was given. No notice to or demand on any Borrower in any case shall entitle any Borrower to any
other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Any amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent effected
in accordance with this Section 10.5 shall be binding upon each Lender at the time outstanding, each future Lender, each Borrower,
and each future Borrower.

     96

     

    

(e)     Compensation
for Amendments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document no Borrower may directly or indirectly pay or otherwise
transfer any consideration, whether by way of interest, fee, or otherwise, to or for the benefit of any current or prospective Lender
or any of its Affiliates (other than any customary fees paid to Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates as consideration for arranging,
structuring, or providing other services in connection therewith) for or as an inducement to any action or inaction by such Lender or
any of its Affiliates, including any consent, waiver, approval, disapproval, or withholding of any of the foregoing in connection with
any required or requested approval, amendment, waiver, consent, or other modification of or under any Loan Document or any provision
thereof unless such consideration is first offered to all then existing Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Share and
is paid to any such Lenders that act in accordance with such offer.

 

(f)      Cashless
Settlement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Lender may exchange, continue, or rollover
all or a portion of its Loans in connection with any refinancing, extension, loan modification, or similar transaction permitted by the
terms of this Agreement pursuant to a cashless settlement mechanism approved by the Borrower, Administrative Agent and such Lender.

 

10.6        Successors
and Assigns; Participations.

 

(a)     Generally.
This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of
the parties hereto and the successors and assigns of Lenders. No Borrower’s rights or obligations hereunder nor any interest therein
may be assigned or delegated by any Borrower without the prior written consent of all Lenders. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or
implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted
hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, Affiliates of each of the Agents, and Lenders, and any other Indemnitees) any
legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

 

(b)    Register.
The Borrowers, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall deem and treat the Persons listed as Lenders in the Register as the holders and
owners of the corresponding unfunded Commitments and Loans (including principal and stated interest) listed therein for all purposes
hereof, and no assignment or transfer of any such unfunded Commitment or Loan (including any Note) shall be effective, in each case,
unless and until recorded in the Register following Administrative Agent’s acceptance of a fully executed Assignment Agreement,
together with the forms and certificates regarding tax matters and any fees payable in connection with such assignment, in each case,
as provided in Section 10.6(e). Each assignment shall be recorded in the Register promptly following acceptance by Administrative
Agent of the fully executed Assignment Agreement and all other necessary documents and approvals, prompt notice thereof shall be provided
to the Borrower and a copy of such Assignment Agreement shall be maintained, as applicable. The date of such recordation of a transfer
shall be referred to herein as the “Assignment Effective Date.” Any request, authority or consent of any Person who,
at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent is listed in the Register as a Lender, shall be conclusive and
binding on any subsequent holder, assignee or transferee of the corresponding unfunded Commitments or Loans. It is intended that the
Register be maintained such that the Loans are in “registered form” for the purposes of the Internal Revenue Code.

     97

     

    

(c)           Right
to Assign. Each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell, assign or transfer all or a portion of its rights and obligations
under this Agreement, including all or a portion of its unfunded Commitment or Loans owing to it or other Obligations (provided,
however, that pro rata assignment shall not be required and each assignment shall be of a uniform, and not varying, percentage
of all rights and obligations under and in respect of any applicable Loan and any related Commitments) with the prior written consent
(such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of the Borrower; provided that, the prior written consent of the Borrower
shall not be required for any assignment:

 

(i)     
  to any Person meeting the criteria of clause (a) of the definition of “Eligible Assignee” upon the giving of notice
to Administrative Agent;

 

(ii)   
   to any Person otherwise constituting an Eligible Assignee; and

 

(iii)    if
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; provided, each such assignment pursuant
to this Section 10.6(c) shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than US$5,000,000 (or such lesser amount (x) as may be agreed
to by the Borrower and Administrative Agent, (y) as shall constitute the aggregate amount of the Loans or unfunded Commitments of the
assigning Lender or (z) as is assigned by an assigning Lender to an Affiliate or Related Fund of such Lender).

 

(d)           Mechanics.
Assignments and assumptions of Loans and unfunded Commitments by Lenders shall be effected by manual execution and delivery to Administrative
Agent of an Assignment Agreement. Assignments made pursuant to the foregoing provision shall be effective as of the Assignment Effective
Date. In connection with all assignments there shall be delivered to Administrative Agent such forms, certificates or other evidence,
if any, with respect to U.S. federal income tax withholding matters as the assignee under such Assignment Agreement may be required to
deliver pursuant to Section 2.17(b), together with payment to Administrative Agent of a registration and processing fee of US$3,500
(except that no such registration and processing fee shall be payable in connection with an assignment to an assignee that is already
a Lender or is an Affiliate or Related Fund of a Lender or a Person under common management with a Lender).

 

(e)           Notice
of Assignment. Upon its receipt and acceptance of a duly executed and completed Assignment Agreement, any forms, certificates or
other evidence required by this Agreement in connection therewith, Administrative Agent shall record the information contained in such
Assignment Agreement in the Register, shall give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower and shall maintain a copy of such Assignment Agreement.

     98

     

    

(f)         Representations
and Warranties of Assignee. Each Lender, upon execution and delivery hereof or upon succeeding to an interest in the unfunded Commitments
and/or Loans, as the case may be, represents and warrants as of the Closing Date or as of the Assignment Effective Date that (i) it is
an Eligible Assignee; (ii) it has experience and expertise in the making of or investing in commitments or loans such as the applicable
unfunded Commitments or Loans, as the case may be; (iii) it will make or invest in, as the case may be, its unfunded Commitments or Loans
for its own account in the ordinary course and without a view to distribution of such unfunded Commitments or Loans within the meaning
of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or other federal securities laws (it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this
Section 10.6, the disposition of such unfunded Commitments or Loans or any interests therein shall at all times remain within
its exclusive control); (iv) it will not provide any information obtained by it in its capacity as a Lender to any Borrower or any of
its Affiliates; and (v) neither such Lender nor any of its Affiliates owns or controls any trade obligations or Indebtedness of any Borrower
or any Capital Stock of any Borrower.

 

(g)         Effect
of Assignment. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 10.6, as of the Assignment Effective Date: (i) the assignee
thereunder shall have the rights and obligations of a “Lender” hereunder to the extent of its interest in the Loans and unfunded
Commitments as reflected in the Register and shall thereafter be a party hereto and a “Lender” for all purposes hereof; (ii)
the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to the assignee, relinquish
its rights (other than any rights that survive the termination hereof under Section 10.10) and be released from its obligations
hereunder (and, in the case of an assignment covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations
hereunder, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto on the Assignment Effective Date; provided, anything contained in any
of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, such assigning Lender shall continue to be entitled to the benefit of all indemnities
hereunder as specified herein with respect to matters arising out of the involvement of such assigning Lender as a Lender hereunder prior
to the Assignment Effective Date); (iii) the Commitments shall be modified to reflect any Commitment of such assignee and any unfunded
Commitment of such assigning Lender, if any; and (iv) if any such assignment occurs after the issuance of any Note hereunder, the assigning
Lender shall, upon the effectiveness of such assignment or as promptly thereafter as practicable, surrender its applicable Notes to Administrative
Agent for cancellation, and thereupon the Borrower shall issue and deliver new Notes, if so requested by the assignee and/or assigning
Lender, to such assignee and/or to such assigning Lender, with appropriate insertions, to reflect the new or unfunded Commitments and/or
outstanding Loans of the assignee and/or the assigning Lender.

 

  (h)         Participations.

 

(i)      Each
Lender shall have the right at any time to sell one or more participations to any Person (other than to a Borrower, any of their Subsidiaries
or any of its Affiliates or any Natural Person) in all or any part of its unfunded Commitments, Loans or in any other Obligation; provided
that such Lender shall remain a “Lender” for all purposes hereunder, the participant shall not constitute a “Lender”
hereunder, and the Borrower, the Agents and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection
with such Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder. Each Lender that sells a participation pursuant to this Section 10.6(h)
shall, acting solely for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which
it records the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts of (and stated interest on) each participant’s participation
interest with respect to the Loan (each, a “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any
obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any participant or any
information relating to a participant’s interest in any unfunded Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under this Agreement)
except to the extent that the relevant parties, acting reasonably and in good faith, determine that such disclosure is necessary to establish
that such unfunded Commitment, Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury
Regulations. Unless otherwise required by the Internal Revenue Service, any disclosure required by the foregoing sentence shall be made
by the relevant Lender directly and solely to the Internal Revenue Service. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive
absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of a participation
with respect to the Loan for all purposes under this Agreement, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt,
Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

     99

     

    

(ii)      Unless
otherwise agreed to by Administrative Agent, the holder of any such participation, other than an Affiliate of the Lender granting such
participation, shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except with respect to any amendment,
modification or waiver that would (1) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan or Note or reduce the rate or extend the time of
payment of interest or fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates)
or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase the amount of the participant’s participation over the amount thereof then
in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Commitment shall not
constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Commitment or Loan shall be permitted without the
consent of any participant if the participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof), (2) consent to the assignment
or transfer by any Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, or (3) release all or substantially all of the
Collateral under the Collateral Documents (except as expressly provided in the Loan Documents) supporting the Loans hereunder in which
such participant is participating. In the case of any such participation, except as otherwise set forth below in this Section 10.6(h)(iii),
the participant shall not have any rights under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents (the participant’s rights against
such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in favor of the participant
relating thereto) and all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation.

 

(iii)    Each
Borrower agrees that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.16 and 2.17 (subject to the requirements
and limitations therein) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph
(c) of this Section; provided, (x) a participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.16
or 2.17 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such participant,
except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after such participant acquired
the participation, and (y) a participant that is not a “United States person” (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal
Revenue Code) for U.S. federal income tax purposes shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.17 unless such Borrower
is notified of the participation sold to such participant and such participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with
Section 2.17 as though it were a Lender; provided, further, that, except as specifically set forth in clauses (x)
and (y) of this sentence, nothing herein shall require any notice to the Borrower or any other Person in connection with the sale of
any participation. To the extent permitted by law, each participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.4 as
though such participant were a Lender; provided that such participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.15 as though it
were a Lender.

     100

     

    

(i)      Certain
Other Assignments and Participations. In addition to any other assignment or participation permitted pursuant to this Section
10.6, any Lender may assign, pledge and/or grant a security interest in, all or any portion of its Loans, the other Obligations owed
by or to such Lender, and its Notes, if any, to secure obligations of such Lender, including any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security
pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors and any operating circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank; provided, that
no Lender, as between the Borrower and such Lender, shall be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any such assignment
and pledge, and provided further, that in no event shall the applicable Federal Reserve Bank, pledgee or trustee be considered
substituted as a “Lender” hereto or be entitled to require the assigning Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder.

 

10.7       [Reserved].

 

10.8       Liens
on After-Acquired Property. Effective as of the entry of the Final DIP Financing Order, the Agent and
the Lenders shall be entitled to all of the rights and benefits of Section 552(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, the “equities of the
case” exception under sections 552(b)(i) and (ii) of the Bankruptcy Code shall not apply to such parties with respect to the proceeds,
products, rents, issues or profits of any of their Collateral, and no expenses of administration of the Cases or any future proceeding
that may result therefrom, including liquidation in bankruptcy or other proceedings under the Bankruptcy Code, may be charged against
proceeds, product, offspring or profits from any of the Collateral under Section 552(b) of the Bankruptcy Code (subject to any provisions
of the Final DIP Financing Order with respect to costs or expenses incurred after entry of such Final DIP Financing Order). Furthermore,
the Borrowers and their estates shall be deemed to have irrevocably waived and have agreed not to assert any claim or right under sections
552 or 726 of the Bankruptcy Code to avoid the imposition of the DIP Liens, on any Property acquired by any of the Borrowers or any of
their estates or to seek to surcharge any costs or expenses incurred in connection with the preservation, protection or enhancement of,
or realization by the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or the Lenders upon the Collateral.

 

10.9       Independence
of Covenants. All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action
or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be
within the limitations of, another covenant shall not preclude the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken
or condition exists.

     101

     

    

10.10     Survival
of Representations, Warranties and Agreements.  All representations, warranties and agreements made herein shall survive
the execution and delivery hereof and the making of any Credit Extension. Notwithstanding anything herein or implied by law to the contrary,
the agreements of each Borrower set forth in Sections 2.16, 2.17, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4, and 10.12,
and the agreements of Lenders set forth in Sections 2.15, 9.3(b) and 9.5 shall survive the Payment in
Full of the Obligations.

		         

10.11     No
Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.  No failure or delay on the part of any Agent or any Lender in the exercise of any power,
right or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver
of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other
or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege. The rights, powers and remedies given to each Agent and each Lender
hereby are cumulative and shall be in addition to and independent of all rights, powers and remedies existing by virtue of any statute
or rule of law or in any of the other Loan Documents. Any forbearance or failure to exercise, and any delay in exercising, any right,
power or remedy hereunder shall not impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof, nor shall it preclude
the further exercise of any such right, power or remedy.

 

10.12     Marshaling;
Payments Set Aside.  Subject to entry of the Final DIP Financing Order, neither any Agent nor any Lender shall be under
any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Borrower or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations.
To the extent that any Borrower makes a payment or payments to Administrative Agent, or Lenders (or to Administrative Agent, for the
benefit of Lenders), or any Agent or Lender enforces any security interests or exercises any right of set-off, and such payment or payments
or the proceeds of such enforcement or set-off or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential,
set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, any other state or federal
law, common law or any equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be
satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as
if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or set-off had not occurred.

 

10.13     Severability.  In
case any provision in or under this Agreement or any Loan Document shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction,
the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, shall not in any
way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of a provision in a particular
jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction).
The parties hereto shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace any invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid,
legal and enforceable provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as reasonably possible to that of the invalid, illegal or
unenforceable provisions.

 

10.14     Obligations
Several; Actions in Concert.  The obligations of Lenders hereunder are several and no Lender shall be responsible for the
obligations or Loan Commitment of any other Lender hereunder. Nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document, and no action taken
by Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute Lenders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any
other kind of entity. Anything in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, each Lender hereby agrees
with each other Lender that no Lender shall take any action to protect or enforce its rights arising out of this Agreement or any Note
or otherwise with respect to the Obligations without first obtaining the prior written consent of Administrative Agent or Requisite Lenders
(as applicable), it being the intent of Lenders that any such action to protect or enforce rights under this Agreement or any other Loan
Document with respect to the Obligations shall be taken in concert and at the direction or with the consent of Administrative Agent or
Requisite Lenders (as applicable).

     102

any substantive effect.

WITH RESPECT TO THE MORTGAGE, WHICH SHALL HAVE THE GOVERNING LAW AS PROVIDED FOR THEREIN) AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES
HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

 

10.17     CONSENT

BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT
ANY RIGHT THAT ANY AGENT OR ANY LENDER MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENT AGAINST THE BORROWERS OR THEIR PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.

     103

     

    

10.18     WAIVER
OF JURY TRIAL.  EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY AGREES TO WAIVE ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM

     104

     

    

10.19     Confidentiality.  Each
Agent and each Lender shall hold all non-public information regarding the Borrowers and their businesses identified as such by Borrower
and obtained by such Agent or such Lender pursuant to the requirements hereof in accordance with such Agent’s or such Lender’s
customary procedures for handling confidential information of such nature, it being understood and agreed by each Borrower that, in any
event, Administrative Agent may disclose any such information to the Lenders and other Agents, and any Agent or Lender may make (a) disclosures
of such information to Affiliates of such Lender or such Agent and to their respective officers, Directors, partners, members, employees,
legal counsel, independent auditors and other advisors, experts, or agents on a confidential basis (and to other Persons authorized by
a Lender or Agent to organize, present or disseminate such information in connection with disclosures otherwise made in accordance with
this Section 10.19), to the extent such Lender in its sole discretion determines that any such party needs and should have access
to such information, (b) disclosures of such information reasonably required by any potential or prospective assignee, transferee or
participant in connection with the contemplated assignment, transfer or participation of any Loans or any participations therein or by
any direct or indirect contractual counterparties (or the professional advisors thereto) to any swap or derivative transaction relating
to any Borrower and its obligations (provided that such assignees, transferees, participants, counterparties and advisors are
advised of and agree to be bound by either the provisions of this Section 10.19 or other substantially similar confidentiality
restrictions), (c) disclosure on a confidential basis to any rating agency when required by it, (d) disclosure on a confidential basis
to the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the

relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) disclosures made pursuant
to the order of any court or administrative agency or in any pending legal or administrative proceeding, or otherwise as required by
applicable law or compulsory legal process (in which case such Person agrees to inform the Borrower promptly thereof to the extent not
prohibited by law), (g) disclosures made upon the request or demand of any regulatory or quasi-regulatory authority purporting to have
jurisdiction over such Person or any of its Affiliates and (viii) disclosures with the consent of the relevant Borrower. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth herein, each party (and each of their respective employees, representatives or other agents) may disclose
to any and all persons, without limitations of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement and all materials of any kind (including opinions and other tax analyses) that are provided to any such party relating to such
tax treatment and tax structure. However, any information relating to the tax treatment or tax structure shall remain subject to the
confidentiality provisions hereof (and the foregoing sentence shall not apply) to the extent reasonably necessary to enable the parties
hereto, their respective Affiliates, and all of their respective Directors and employees to comply with applicable securities laws. For
this purpose, “tax structure” means any facts relevant to the federal income tax treatment of the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement but does not include information relating to the identity of any of the parties hereto or any of their respective Affiliates.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, on or after the Closing Date, Administrative Agent may, at its own expense, issue news releases and publish
 “tombstone” advertisements and other announcements relating to this transaction in newspapers, trade journals and other appropriate
media (which may include use of logos of one or more of the Borrowers) (collectively, “Trade Announcements”). No Lender
or Borrower shall (i) issue any Trade Announcement, (ii) use or reference in advertising, publicity, or otherwise the name of any Lender
or any of their respective Affiliates, or any partner or employee of any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates or (iii) represent
that any product or any service provided has been approved or endorsed by any Lender, or any of their respective Affiliates, except (1)
disclosures required by applicable law, regulation, legal process or the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission or (2) with
the prior approval of Administrative Agent (upon consultation with the Requisite Lenders).

10.20     Usury
Savings Clause.  Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged with respect to any of
the Obligations, including all charges or fees in connection therewith deemed in the nature of interest under applicable law shall not
exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. If the rate of interest (determined without regard to the preceding sentence) under this Agreement at
any time exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder shall bear interest at the Highest Lawful
Rate until the total amount of interest due hereunder equals the amount of interest that would have been due hereunder if the stated
rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. In addition, if, when the Obligations hereunder are Paid
in Full, the total interest due hereunder (taking into account the increase provided for above) is less than the total amount of interest
that would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then
to the extent permitted by law, the Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent an amount equal to the difference between the amount of
interest paid and the amount of interest that would have been paid if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in effect. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, it is the intention of Lenders and the Borrower to conform strictly to any applicable usury laws. Accordingly, if any
Lender contracts for, charges, or receives any consideration that constitutes interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then any
such excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if previously paid, shall at such Lender’s option be applied to the outstanding
amount of the Loans made hereunder or be refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received
by Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (a)
characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments
and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest, throughout
the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

 

10.21     Effectiveness;
Counterparts.  This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution and delivery of a counterpart hereof by each of
the parties hereto and receipt by the Borrower and Administrative Agent of written notification of such execution and authorization of
delivery thereof. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be
deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart
of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed
counterpart of this Agreement.

 

10.22     Entire
Agreement.  This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents (including any such other Loan Document entered into
prior to the date hereof), reflects the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and
shall not be contradicted or qualified by any other agreement, oral or written, made prior to the date hereof.

 

10.23     PATRIOT
Act.  Each Lender and Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies each Borrower that
pursuant to the requirements of the PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Borrower,
which information includes the name and address of each Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender, or Administrative
Agent, as applicable, to identify such Borrower in accordance with the PATRIOT Act.

 

10.24     Electronic
Execution of Assignments and Loan Documents.  The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,”
and words of like import in any Assignment Agreement or any other Loan Document shall in each case be deemed to include electronic signatures,
signatures exchanged by electronic transmission, or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal
effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may
be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce
Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions
Act; provided, that Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent may request, and upon any such request the Borrowers shall be obligated
to provide, manually executed “wet ink” signatures to any Loan Document.

     106

     

    

10.25     No
Fiduciary Duty.  Each Agent, Lender, and their Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lenders”),
may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Borrowers, their equity holders and/or their affiliates. Each Borrower agrees
that nothing in the Loan Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or
other implied duty between any Lender, on the one hand, and such Borrower, its equity holders or its affiliates, on the other. The Borrowers
acknowledge and agree that (a) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder
and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Borrowers, on the other
and (b) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility
in favor of any Borrower, its equity holders or its affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise
of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently
advising or will advise any Borrower, its equity holders or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to any Borrower,
except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and (y) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent
or fiduciary of any Borrower, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person. Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that
it has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own
independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. Each Borrower agrees that it will not claim that
any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to such Borrower, in connection
with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

 

10.26     Acknowledgement
and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document
or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of
any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the
Write Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be
bound by:

 

(a)          the
application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder
that may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and

 

(b)          the
effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

 

(i)        a
reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

 

(ii)      a
conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution,
its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other
instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any
other Loan Document; or

 

(iii)     the
variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution
Authority.

    4 

     

    

IT
IS HEREBY FOUND AND DETERMINED THAT:3

 

A.          
Petition Date. On May 19, 2021 (the “Petition Date”), the Debtors commenced their chapter 11 cases (these “Chapter
11 Cases”) by filing voluntary petitions for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy
Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Court”). The Debtors are
operating their businesses and managing their affairs as debtors in possession pursuant to sections 1107(a) and 1108 of the Bankruptcy
Code. As of the date hereof, no trustee, examiner or official committee of creditors holding unsecured claims (a “Creditors’
Committee”) has been appointed in any of these Chapter 11 Cases.

 

B.           
Jurisdiction; Venue. The Court has jurisdiction over these Chapter 11 Cases, the parties and the Debtors’ property pursuant
to 28 U.S.C. § 1334. This is a core proceeding pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §157(b)(2)(D). The Court is a proper venue of these
Chapter 11 Cases and the Requested Relief under 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408 and 1409.

 

C.           
Notice. Proper, timely, adequate and sufficient notice under the circumstances of the Motion and the Interim Hearing has been
provided in accordance with the Bankruptcy Code, Bankruptcy Rules 2002, 4001(b), (c), and (d), and 9014, and the Local Rules of Practice
and Procedure for the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Local Rules”), and no other
or further notice of the Motion with respect to the relief requested at the Interim Hearing or the entry of this Interim Order shall
be required.

 

 

3
Findings of fact shall be construed as conclusions of law, and conclusions of law shall be construed as findings of fact, as applicable,
pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 7052.

    5 

     

    

D.           
Debtors’ Acknowledgments and Stipulations. The Debtors acknowledge, represent, stipulate, and agree:

 

(i)          
Necessary Approvals. Upon approval of this Interim Order by the Court, the Debtors have obtained all authorizations, consents
and approvals required to be obtained from, and have made all filings with and given all notices required to be given to, all federal,
state and local governmental agencies, authorities and instrumentalities in connection with the execution, delivery, validity and enforceability
of the DIP Loan Documents to which any Debtor is a party and the use of Cash Collateral as provided herein;

 

(ii)          
DIP Liens and Obligations. Until such time as all DIP Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full in cash, the Debtors shall not
in any way prime or seek to prime (or otherwise cause to be subordinated in any way) the liens and security interests provided to the
DIP Lenders by offering a subsequent lender or any party-in-interest a superior or pari passu lien or claim pursuant to section 364(d)
of the Bankruptcy Code, or otherwise, except with respect to (a) prior payment of the Carve-Out and (b) the Permitted Prior Liens. Until
such time as all DIP Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full in cash, the Debtors shall not in any way or at any time permit to exist
an administrative expense claim against the Debtors of any kind or nature whatsoever, including, without limitation, claims for any administrative
expenses of the kind specified in, or arising or ordered under sections 105, 326, 328, 503(b), 506(c), 507(a), 507(b), 546(c), 726, 1113
and 1114 of the Bankruptcy Code, that is superior to or pari passu with the DIP Superpriority Claim (as defined below) provided herein,
except with respect to prior payment of the Carve-Out.

    6 

     

    

E.           
Cash Collateral. For purposes of this Interim Order, the term “Cash Collateral” shall mean and include all
cash and cash equivalents of the Debtors, whenever or wherever acquired, and the proceeds of all collateral pledged to the DIP Agent
constitute cash collateral, as contemplated by section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, in or on which the DIP Agent has, for the benefit
of the DIP Lenders, a lien, security interest or other interest whether existing on the Petition Date, arising pursuant to this Interim
Order or otherwise and shall include, without limitation:

 

(i)          
all cash proceeds arising from the collection, sale, lease or other disposition, use or conversion of any real or personal property,
including insurance policies, in or on which the DIP Lenders have a lien, whether as part of the DIP Collateral or pursuant to an order
of the Court or applicable law or otherwise, and whether such property has been converted to cash, existed as of the commencement of
these Chapter 11 Cases, or arose or was generated thereafter;

 

(ii)          
all of the respective deposits, refund claims and rights in retainers of the Debtors on which the DIP Secured Parties hold a lien, whether
as part of the DIP Collateral or pursuant to an order of the Court or applicable law or otherwise; and

 

(iii)          the
proceeds of any sale of DIP Collateral, including any Collateral Asset Sale.

 

F.           
Purpose and Necessity of Financing. The Debtors require the financing described in the Requested Relief (i) for working capital
and general corporate purposes, (ii) to pay fees and expenses incurred by the DIP Lenders in connection with the DIP Loan Documents as
provided therein, (iii) to pay restructuring costs and Professional Fees of the Debtors relating solely to these Chapter 11 Cases, and
(iv) for other purposes as provided in and subject to the terms of the DIP Credit Agreement, and subject to compliance with the DIP Budget
and the Permitted Variances, as provided in the DIP Credit Agreement. If the Debtors do not obtain authorization to borrow under the
DIP Credit Agreement, they will suffer immediate and irreparable harm. The Debtors are unable to obtain adequate unsecured credit allowable
as an administrative expense under section 503 of the Bankruptcy Code, or other sufficient financing under sections 364(c) of the Bankruptcy
Code, on more favorable terms than those set forth in the DIP Loan Documents, based on the totality of the circumstances, as set forth
in the First Day Declaration and the Jefferies Declaration. A loan facility in the amount provided by the DIP Loan Documents is not available
to the Debtors without granting the DIP Agent, for the benefit of the DIP Lenders, superpriority claims, liens, and security interests,
pursuant to sections 364(c)(1), 364(c)(2), and 364(c)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code, as provided in this Interim Order and the DIP Loan Documents.
As set forth in the First Day Declaration and the Jefferies Declaration, after considering all alternatives, the Debtors have concluded,
in the exercise of their sound business judgment, that the DIP Facility represents the best financing available to them at this time.

    7 

     

    

G.           
Good Cause Shown. Good cause has been shown for entry of this Interim Order. The ability of the Debtors to obtain sufficient working
capital and liquidity under the DIP Loan Documents is vital to the Debtors’ estates and creditors. The liquidity to be provided
under the DIP Loan Documents will enable the Debtors to continue to operate their businesses in the ordinary course and preserve the
value of the Debtors’ assets. Among other things, entry of this Interim Order is necessary to maximize the value of the Debtors’
assets and to avoid immediate and irreparable harm to the Debtors and their estates, and, accordingly, is in the best interests of the
Debtors, their estates and their stakeholders. Based on this Motion, the First Day Declaration, the Jefferies Declaration, and the record
presented to the Court at the Interim Hearing, the terms of the DIP Credit Agreement pursuant to this Interim Order and the DIP Loan
Documents are fair and reasonable, reflect the Debtors’ exercise of their prudent business judgment consistent with their fiduciary
duties, and constitute reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration.

 

H.           
Section 506(c) Waiver. In light of (i) the DIP Agent’s and the DIP Lenders’ agreement to permit their DIP Liens and
DIP Superpriority Claim (as defined below) to be subject to prior payment of the Carve-Out, and in exchange for and as a material inducement
to the DIP Agent and DIP Lenders to agree to provide the DIP Facility, the DIP Agent and the DIP Lenders are each entitled to, subject
to entry of the Final Order, a waiver of the provisions of section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code.

    8 

     

    

I.            
Good Faith.

 

(i)          
The DIP Lenders have indicated a willingness to provide financing to the Debtors subject to: (a) entry of this Interim Order and the
Final Order; (b) approval of the terms and conditions of the DIP Facility and the DIP Loan Documents; (c) satisfaction of the closing
conditions set forth in the DIP Loan Documents; and (d) findings by this Court that the DIP Facility and the Debtors’ use of Cash
Collateral as provided for herein are essential to the Debtors’ estates, that the DIP Secured Parties are extending credit to the
Debtors pursuant to the DIP Loan Documents and this Interim Order in good faith, and that the DIP Agent’s and DIP Lenders’
claims, superpriority claims, security interests and liens and other protections granted pursuant to this Interim Order and the DIP Documents
will have the protections provided by section 364(e) of the Bankruptcy Code.

 

(ii)          
The terms of the DIP Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the interest rates and fees applicable, and intangible factors relevant
thereto, are more favorable to the Debtors than any available from alternative sources. Based upon the record before the Court, the DIP
Loan Documents have been negotiated in good faith and at arm’s-length among the Debtors, the DIP Lenders and the DIP Agent. Any
DIP Loans and other financial accommodations made to the Debtors by the DIP Agent and the DIP Lenders pursuant to the DIP Loan Documents
and this Interim Order shall be deemed to have been extended by the DIP Agent and the DIP Lenders in good faith, as that term is used
in section 364(e) of the Bankruptcy Code, and the DIP Agent and the DIP Lenders shall be entitled to all protections afforded thereby.

    9 

     

    

J.            
Fair Consideration and Reasonably Equivalent Value. Each of the Debtors has received and will receive fair and reasonable consideration
in exchange for access to the DIP Loans and all other financial accommodations provided under the DIP Loan Documents and this Interim
Order. The terms of the DIP Loan Documents are fair and reasonable, reflect the Debtors’ exercise of prudent business judgment
consistent with their fiduciary duties and are supported by reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration.

 

K.           Immediate
Entry of Interim Order. The Debtors have requested immediate entry of this Interim Order pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 4001(c)(2).
The permission granted herein to enter into the DIP Loan Documents and to obtain funds thereunder is necessary to avoid immediate and
irreparable harm to the Debtors. This Court concludes that entry of this Interim Order is in the best interests of the Debtors’
respective estates and creditors as its implementation will, among other things, allow for access to the financing necessary for the
continued operations of the Debtors’ existing businesses and further enhance the Debtors’ prospects for a successful reorganization.
Based upon the foregoing findings, acknowledgements and conclusions, and upon the record made before this Court at the Interim Hearing,
and good and sufficient cause appearing therefor;

 

IT
IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED THAT:

 

1.           
Motion Approved. The Motion is granted on an interim basis as set forth herein, and the Debtors’ incurrence of the DIP Facility
and use of Cash Collateral on an interim basis is authorized, subject to the terms of this Interim Order.

 

2.           
Objections Overruled. Any objections, reservations of rights or other statements with respect to the Motion and entry of the Interim
Order, to the extent not withdrawn or resolved, are overruled on the merits. This Interim Order shall become effective immediately upon
its entry.

terms of this Interim Order, the DIP Budget (subject to the Permitted Variances) and the DIP Loan Documents, in the aggregate principal
amount of up to $30,000,000 (the “Interim Funding Amount”). The Debtors are hereby authorized to borrow money pursuant
to the DIP Credit Agreement, subject to any limitations on and conditions precedent to borrowing under the DIP Loan Documents, and to
use the proceeds of such borrowings for working capital and general corporate purposes of the Debtors and for other uses permitted under
the DIP Credit Agreement, bankruptcy-related costs and expenses, and any other amounts required or allowed to be paid in accordance with
this Interim Order, but only as and to the extent authorized by the DIP Budget (subject to the Permitted Variances) and the DIP Loan
Documents.

 

(b)           Prior
to the Termination Date, the Debtors are authorized to use Cash Collateral subject to and in accordance with the terms, conditions, and
limitations set forth in this Interim Order, the DIP Budget (subject to the Permitted Variances) and the DIP Loan Documents, without
further approval by the Court.

    11 

     

    

(c)           The
Debtors have delivered to the DIP Secured Parties a rolling cash forecast, in form, scope and substance consistent with historical operating
practice and acceptable to the DIP Secured Parties in their sole discretion, for a period of thirteen (13) weeks beginning on the Petition
Date and updated every four (4) weeks thereafter in accordance with the terms of the DIP Credit Agreement, setting forth projected cash
flows and disbursements, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “DIP Budget”). The DIP Budget
shall at all times be in form and substance acceptable to, and as approved by, the Requisite Lenders, in their respective sole discretion,
in accordance with the DIP Credit Agreement. The Debtors shall provide updates to the DIP Budget at least once every four (4) weeks with
respect to the Debtors, in accordance with the terms of the DIP Loan Documents, in form and substance satisfactory to the Requisite Lenders.

noting all variances on a line item basis from amounts set forth in the DIP Budget for such period, and explanations for all material
variances and (ii) additional customary reporting to be agreed among the Borrowers and the Initial DIP Lender. Funds borrowed under
the DIP Credit Agreement and Cash Collateral used under this Interim Order, as well as other cash held by the Debtors, shall be used
by the Debtors in accordance with the DIP Budget (subject to the Permitted Variances), the DIP Loan Documents and this Interim Order.
The consent of the Requisite Lenders to any DIP Budget shall not be construed as a commitment to provide DIP Loans or to permit the use
of Cash Collateral (subject to the Carve-Out) after the occurrence of the Termination Date, regardless of whether the aggregate funds
shown on the DIP Budget have been expended.

 

(d)          Any
amendments, supplements or modifications to the DIP Budget must be consented to in writing by the Requisite Lenders, in their sole discretion
in accordance with the DIP Credit Agreement, prior to the implementation thereof and shall not require further notice, hearing, or court
order; provided, however, that the Debtors will provide written notice of any such amendment, supplement or modification
to the Creditors’ Committee (if any).

    12 

     

    

(e)           The
DIP Secured Parties (i) may assume the Debtors will comply with the DIP Budget (subject to the Permitted Variances), (ii) shall have
no duty to monitor such compliance and (iii) shall not be obligated to pay (directly or indirectly from the DIP Collateral) any unpaid
expenses incurred or authorized to be incurred pursuant to any DIP Budget. All advances and extensions of credit shall be based upon
the terms and conditions of the DIP Loan Documents, as the same may be adjusted from time to time.

 

(f)          
Notwithstanding anything in this Interim Order to the contrary, the DIP Loan Documents shall expire, and the DIP Loans made pursuant
to this Interim Order and the DIP Loan Documents will mature, and together with all interest thereon and any other obligations accruing
under the DIP Loan Documents, will become due and payable (unless such obligations become due and payable earlier pursuant to the terms
of the DIP Loan Documents and this Interim Order by way of acceleration or otherwise) on the Termination Date.

 

4.            
Authority to Execute and Deliver Necessary Documents.

 

(a)           Each
of the Debtors is authorized to negotiate, prepare, enter into, and deliver the DIP Loan Documents, in each case including any amendments
thereto. Each of the Debtors is further authorized to negotiate, prepare, enter into and deliver any UCC financing statements, pledge
and security agreements, deposit account control agreements, mortgages or deeds of trust, or similar documents or agreements encumbering
all of the DIP Collateral and securing all of the Debtors’ Obligations under the DIP Loan Documents, each as may be provided for
under the DIP Credit Agreement or as otherwise reasonably requested by the DIP Secured Parties.

    13 

     

    

(b)          Each
of the Debtors is further authorized to (i) perform all of its Obligations under the DIP Loan Documents, and such other agreements as
may be required by the DIP Loan Documents to give effect to the terms of the financing provided for therein and in this Interim Order,
and (ii) perform all acts required under the DIP Loan Documents and this Interim Order.

 

5.            
Valid and Binding Obligations. All Obligations under the DIP Loan Documents shall constitute valid, binding, and nonavoidable
Obligations of each of the Debtors, enforceable against each of them and each of their successors and assigns, in accordance with their
terms and the terms of this Interim Order, and no obligation, payment, transfer, or grant of a lien or security interest under the DIP
Loan Documents or this Interim Order shall be stayed, restrained, voidable, or recoverable under the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable
law (including, without limitation, under section 502(d) of the Bankruptcy Code) or subject to any avoidance, reduction, set off, offset,
recharacterization, subordination (whether equitable, contractual, or otherwise), counterclaims, cross-claims, defenses, or any other
challenges under the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable law or regulation by any person or entity.

    14 

     

    

6.           
Authorization for Payment of DIP Financing Fees and Expenses. All fees paid and payable, including any make-whole fees, and all

to the notice provision below, the Debtors are hereby authorized to pay all such fees, costs and expenses in accordance with the terms
of the DIP Loan Documents and this Interim Order, without any requirement that the Debtors, the DIP Agent, the DIP Lenders or any of
their respective counsel file any further application or other pleading, notice, or document with the Court for approval or payment of
such fees, costs, or expenses. Subject to the notice provision below, the Debtors agree to pay promptly (without further order of or
application to the Court) all the reasonable, documented out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses incurred by the DIP Agent, DIP Lenders,
the Brookfield Investor, and each of their Affiliates (the foregoing to include all unpaid prepetition fees, costs and expenses incurred
by the DIP Agent, the DIP Lenders, the Brookfield Investor, and each of their Affiliates in connection with the DIP Facility, the Restructuring

LLP), the DIP Agent’s legal counsel (Thompson & Knight), and other professionals, hired by or on behalf of Brookfield Investor
(including in its capacity as the Initial DIP Lender) and the DIP Agent, (f) the enforcement or preservation of any rights under the
DIP Loan Documents, (g) after the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, enforcing or preparing for enforcement of any Obligations
of or in collecting or preparing to collect any payments due from any Borrower under the DIP Credit Agreement or under the other Loan
Documents by reason of such Default or Event of Default (including in connection with any actual or prospective sale of, collection from,
or other realization upon any of the Collateral), (h) in connection with any structuring, planning, preparation, negotiation, or execution
of any standstill, forbearance or work-out arrangements involving the Borrower or any actual or prospective refinancing, recapitalization
or restructuring of the Borrower, whether or not pursuant to or in contemplation of any insolvency or bankruptcy cases or proceedings,
and (i) any and all other costs and expenses payable under Section 10.2 of the DIP Credit Agreement. Subject to the notice provision

whether incurred prior to or after the Petition Date, including, without limitation, all fees referred to in the DIP Loan Documents and
the Restructuring Support Agreement, shall be deemed fully earned, non-refundable and irrevocable as of the date of this Interim Order.
None of the DIP Agent’s, DIP Lenders’ or Brookfield Investor’s attorneys, financial advisors and accountants’
fees and disbursements shall be subject to the prior approval of this Court or the guidelines of the Office of the United States Trustee
for this region (the “U.S. Trustee”), and no recipient of any such payment shall be required to file with respect
thereto any interim or final fee application with this Court. Other than with respect to any fees, costs and expenses payable on the
Closing Date or as otherwise provided by an order of the Court, any such fees, costs and expenses shall be evidenced by a summary invoice
(redacted, as necessary, to protect any applicable privilege) and delivered to the Debtors, the U.S. Trustee, and the Creditors’
Committee (if any). The U.S. Trustee and the Creditors’ Committee (if any) shall have ten (10) Business Days from the date of such
delivery (the “Professional Fee Review Period”) within which to object in writing to such payment. In the absence
of any objection by the U.S. Trustee or any Creditors’ Committee following the expiration of the Professional Fee Review Period,
the Debtors shall pay such invoice promptly, and in any event within five (5) calendar days, without the need for further application
to or order of the Court. In the event that, within such period, the U.S. Trustee or the Creditors’ Committee (if any) raises an
objection to a particular invoice, the applicable counsel shall notify the Debtors in writing of the objection and the Debtors shall
pay the fees and expenses not subject to the objection within three (3) Business Days following the expiration of the Professional Fee
Review Period, without the need for further application to or order of the Court.

    15 

     

    

7.            
Amendments, Consents, Waivers, and Modifications. The Debtors, with the express written consent of the DIP Agent and Requisite
Lenders (or all affected DIP Lenders, as required in accordance with the DIP Credit Agreement) in accordance with the DIP Credit Agreement,
may enter into any non-material amendments, consents, waivers, or modifications to the DIP Loan Documents without the need for further
notice and hearing or any order of this Court.

 

DIP
LIENS AND DIP SUPERPRIORITY CLAIMS

 

8.            
DIP Liens

 

(a)           To
secure the DIP Obligations, the DIP Agent is hereby granted for the benefit of the DIP Secured Parties (i) pursuant to section 364(c)(2),
a perfected first-priority lien on the DIP Collateral (as defined below) to the extent that such DIP Collateral was not subject to Permitted
Priority Liens4; and (ii) pursuant to section 364(c)(3), a perfected lien on the DIP Collateral junior to any Permitted Priority
Liens on such DIP Collateral, in each case subject to the Carve-Out ((i) and (ii) collectively, the “DIP Liens”).

 

 

4
“Permitted Priority Liens” means valid, enforceable, non-avoidable and perfected liens in existence on the Petition
Date (including valid liens in existence on the Petition Date that are perfected after the Petition Date as permitted by § 546(b)
of the Bankruptcy Code). 

    16 

     

    

(b)          The
DIP Liens shall attach to all of the property, assets or interests in property or assets of each Debtor, and all “property of the
estate” (within the meaning of the Bankruptcy Code) of each Debtor, of any kind or nature whatsoever, real or personal, tangible
or intangible or mixed, now existing or hereafter acquired or created, including, without limitation, all of each Debtor’s now
owned or hereafter acquired right, title, and interest in and to: (i) all of the property, assets or interests in property or assets
of each Debtor and all “property of the estate” (other than Excluded Assets, including claims and causes of action under
sections 502(d), 544, 545, 547, 548, 550, and 553 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any other avoidance actions under the Bankruptcy Code (collectively,
 “Avoidance Actions”), or any other assets excluded under Section 2.2 of the Pledge and Security Agreement) and, to
the extent any property, assets or interests of any Debtor are excluded from the DIP Collateral, the proceeds of such property, assets
or interests; (ii) the proceeds and products, whether tangible or intangible, of any of the foregoing, including proceeds of insurance
covering any or all of the foregoing, and any money or other tangible or intangible property resulting from the sale, exchange, collection
or other disposition of any of the foregoing, or any portion thereof or interest therein, and the proceeds thereof; (iii) all other property
and assets including, without limitation, Cash Collateral and all cash and non-cash proceeds, rents, products, substitutions, accessions,
offspring and profits of any of the collateral described above; and (iv) subject to the entry of the Final Order, any proceeds or property
recovered, unencumbered or otherwise, from Avoidance Actions (“Avoidance Action Proceeds”) (collectively with (i)-(iv),
the “DIP Collateral”); subject only to (1) the Permitted Priority Liens, and (2) prior payment of the Carve-Out.

 

(c)           The
DIP Liens shall be effective immediately upon the entry of this Interim Order and shall not at any time be made subject or subordinated
to, or made pari passu with, any other lien, security interest or claim existing as of the Petition Date, or created under sections
363 or 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, other than (i) the Permitted Priority Liens as provided herein, and (ii) prior payment
of the Carve-Out.

    17 

     

    

(d)          The
DIP Liens shall be and hereby are deemed fully perfected liens and security interests, effective and perfected upon the date of this
Interim Order, without the necessity of execution by the Debtors of mortgages, control agreements, security agreements, pledge agreements,
financing agreements, financing statements or any other agreements or instruments, such that no additional actions need be taken by the
DIP Secured Parties to perfect such interests.

 

9.            
DIP Lenders’ Superpriority Claim. The DIP Agent, for the benefit of the DIP Secured Parties, is hereby granted an allowed
superpriority administrative expense claim (the “DIP Superpriority Claim”) pursuant to section 364(c)(1) of the Bankruptcy
Code in each of the Debtors’ Chapter 11 Cases and in any successor case(s) under the Bankruptcy Code (including any case or cases
under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code, the “Successor Case(s)”) for all DIP Obligations, having priority over any
and all other claims against the Debtors, now existing or hereafter arising, of any kind whatsoever, including, without limitation, all
administrative expenses of the kinds specified in or arising or ordered under sections 105(a), 326, 328, 330, 331, 503(a), 503(b), 506(c),
507(a), 507(b), 546(c), 546(d), 726, 1113, and 1114 and any other provision of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, whether or not such
expenses or claims may become secured by a judgment lien or other non-consensual lien, levy or attachment, which allowed DIP Superpriority
Claim shall be payable from and have recourse to all pre- and postpetition property of the Debtors, including all cash and cash equivalents,
and all proceeds thereof including, without limitation but subject to entry of a Final Order, any Avoidance Actions Proceeds. The DIP
Superpriority Claim granted in this paragraph shall be subject and subordinate in priority of payment only to prior payment of the Carve-Out.
Except as referenced in this Interim Order, no other superpriority claims shall be granted or allowed in these Chapter 11 Cases or in
any Successor Case(s). The DIP Superpriority Claim shall be senior in all respects to any superpriority claims granted in these Chapter
11 Cases including, without limitation, on account of any break-up fee or expense reimbursement that may be granted by the Court in connection
with any sale of the Debtors’ assets.

    18 

     

    

10.          Survival
of DIP Liens and DIP Superpriority Claim. The DIP Liens, DIP Superpriority Claim and other rights and remedies granted under this
Interim Order to the DIP Agent, for the benefit of itself and the DIP Lenders, shall continue in this and any Successor Case(s) and shall
be valid and enforceable against any trustee appointed in any or all of the Debtors’ Chapter 11 Cases and/or upon the dismissal
of any or all of the Debtors’ Chapter 11 Cases or any Successor Case(s) and such liens and security interests shall maintain their
priority as provided in this Interim Order until all the DIP Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash and the DIP Lenders’
commitments have been terminated in accordance with the DIP Loan Documents.

    19 

     

    

CARVE-OUT;
RESTRICTIONS ON USE OF FUNDS

 

11.          Carve-Out.

 

(a)           The
DIP Liens and the DIP Superpriority Claim shall be subject and subordinate only to prior payment of: (i) fees payable to the United States
Trustee pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1930(a)(6) or to the Clerk of the Court (the “Case Administration Fees”),
(ii) all reasonable fees and expenses up to $25,000 incurred by a trustee under section 726(b) of the Bankruptcy Code (iii) unpaid professional
fees and expenses payable to any Professional Person5 (collectively, the “Professional Fees”), that are
incurred or accrued prior to the date on which the DIP Agent provides written notice to the Debtors and the Creditors’ Committee
(if any) of the occurrence of either an Event of Default or the Termination Date (such notice, the “Carve-Out Notice”,
and the date of a delivery of such notice to the Debtors and the Creditors’ Committee (if any), the “Carve-Out Effective
Date”), but solely if, as and to the extent such Professional Fees (whenever incurred prior to the Carve-Out Effective Date)
are ultimately allowed by the Court pursuant to section 330 of the Bankruptcy Code, and, with respect to any Professional Fees incurred
by any Professional Person retained by the Creditors’ Committee (if any), have been provided for in, and are consistent with, the
DIP Budget (subject to the Permitted Variances), and (iv) unpaid Debtors’ Professional Fees and Creditors’ Committee’s
Professional Fees, in each case incurred or accrued on or after the Carve-Out Effective Date in an aggregate amount not to exceed $250,000,
to the extent allowed at any time, whether by interim order, procedural order or otherwise (clauses (i)–(iv), collectively, the
 “Carve-Out”, and clause (iv) alone, the “Capped Carve-Out”). Subject to the immediately preceding
sentence, so long as the Carve-Out Effective Date has not occurred, the Debtors shall be permitted to pay Case Administration Fees and
Professional Fees allowed and payable under Bankruptcy Code sections 330, 331, and 503, as provided in the DIP Loan Documents and, with
respect to any Professional Fees incurred by any Professional Person retained by the Creditors’ Committee (if any), the DIP Budget
(subject to the Permitted Variances), provided that, as described below, the Debtors shall pay all Professional Fees allowed by
the Court first from the Professional Fee Trust Account (as defined below). Any payment of Carve-Out expenses incurred after the occurrence
of the Carve-Out Effective Date, including any payment of Professional Fees, shall permanently reduce the Capped Carve-Out on a dollar-for-dollar
basis. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Carve-Out shall not include, apply to or be available for any success fee
or similar payment to any professionals or other persons, including, without limitation, any such fee payable in connection with a restructuring
or asset disposition with respect to any of the Debtors or otherwise unless consistent with the Restructuring Support Agreement or otherwise
agreed to in writing by the DIP Agent and the Requisite Lenders (or all affected Lenders, as applicable) in accordance with the DIP Credit
Agreement.

 

 

5
Professional Person means any attorney, financial advisor, accountant, appraiser, monitor, auctioneer or other professional person
and who is retained, with Court approval, by (a) the Debtors pursuant to any one or more of Sections 327, 328(a), and 363 of
the Bankruptcy Code or (b) any Creditors’ Committee pursuant to Section 1103(a) of the Bankruptcy Code. 

    20 

     

    

(b)          Prior
to the Carve-Out Effective Date: (i) the Debtors shall establish and fund an account (the “Professional Fee Trust Account”)
for purposes of funding the Carve Out; (ii) commencing upon the first [•] after the Closing Date, the Debtors shall deposit
in the Professional Fee Trust Account an amount equal to the aggregate amount sufficient to pay the Professional Fees set forth in paragraph
11(a)(iii) above (excluding any success fees) in the amount projected in the DIP Budget (without taking into consideration any Permitted
Variances) for such week (the “Professional Fee Trust Weekly Amounts”); (iii) prior to the Carve-Out Effective Date,
to the extent that there are insufficient funds in the Debtors’ operating accounts, the Debtors shall be permitted to borrow under
the DIP Credit Agreement to fund the Professional Fee Trust Weekly Amounts subject to the terms of this Interim Order and the DIP Credit
Agreement; and (iv) the Debtors shall pay any and all Professional Fees allowed by the Court first from the Professional Fee Trust Account
(excluding restructuring, sale, financing, or other success fees).

 

    21 

     

    

(c)           Every
Thursday beginning with the first full calendar week following the Petition Date, each Professional Person shall deliver to the
Debtors a good-faith estimate of (i) the cumulative total amount of unreimbursed fees and expenses incurred in the preceding
two-week period and (ii) the total amount of fees and expenses that have been paid to date by the Debtors to such Professional
Person (each such statement, a “Fee Statement”); provided, that within one business day of the occurrence
of the Carve-Out Effective Date, each Professional Person shall deliver one additional statement setting forth a good-faith estimate of the
amount of unreimbursed fees and expenses incurred during the period commencing on the calendar day after delivery of the most recent
Fee Statement and concluding on the Carve-Out Effective Date. To the extent the amount of Professional Fees accrued and claimed in a Fee
Statement exceeds the Professional Fee Trust Weekly Amounts for the applicable periods, respectively, and such fees and expenses
have otherwise not been paid by the Debtors, the Debtors shall, within two (2) Business Days, fund additional amounts into the
Professional Fee Trust Account equal to the difference between the Professional Fee Trust Weekly Amounts and the amount accrued and
claimed in the applicable Fee Statement (each, a “Top Off Amount”). For the avoidance of doubt, after the
Carve-Out Effective Date, the Debtors shall fund the Top Off Amount only from the funds in the Debtors’ operating accounts,
and the Debtors shall not be permitted to borrow under the DIP Credit Agreement to fund the Top Off Amount.

 

(d)          The
Professional Fee Trust Account shall be maintained, and the funds therein (the “Funded Reserve Amount”) shall be held
in trust, for the benefit of Professionals. Any and all amounts in the Professional Fee Trust Account shall not be subject to any cash
sweep and/or foreclosure provisions in the DIP Loan Documents, and neither the DIP Lenders nor the DIP Agent shall be entitled to sweep
or foreclose on such amounts notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the DIP Loan Documents. Immediately following the Carve-Out
Effective Date, the Debtors shall transfer (i) an amount equal to the Capped Carve-Out and (ii) an amount equal to all unpaid Professional
Fees set forth in clauses (a)(ii) and (a)(iii) of this paragraph 11 to the extent not previously funded, into the Professional Fee Trust
Account from their operating accounts. Any excess amounts remaining in the Professional Fee Trust Account after payment of the Professional
Fees shall be refunded to the Debtors and transferred to a Controlled Account and shall remain DIP Collateral.

    22 

     

    

(e)           Nothing
contained in this Interim Order shall be construed: (i) to exempt those persons hereafter receiving interim compensation payments or
reimbursement of expenses pursuant to any such Court-approved procedure from the applicable provisions of bankruptcy law, including the
requirements that such compensation or reimbursement be allowed on a final basis after the filing of appropriate fee applications, and,
if applicable, any subsequent order of this Court requiring that such payments be disgorged, and/or (ii) as consent to the allowance
of any fees and expenses referred to above, and shall not affect any right of the DIP Agent, the DIP Lenders, the United States Trustee
or the Creditors’ Committee (if any) to object to the reasonableness of such amounts.

 

(f)          
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Interim Order or the DIP Loan Documents, under no circumstances (which, for the avoidance
of doubt, includes, but is not limited to, an Event of Default or a termination of the DIP Loan Documents) shall the Debtors be prohibited
in any way from accessing or drawing upon their operating accounts for the purpose of funding the Professional Fee Trust Account in accordance
with this Interim Order.

 

(g)          None
of the DIP Agent or the DIP Lenders shall be responsible for the payment or reimbursement of any fees or disbursements of any Debtor
Professionals incurred in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases or any Successor Cases under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code. Nothing
in this Interim Order or otherwise shall be construed to obligate the DIP Agent or the DIP Lenders in any way, to pay compensation to,
or to reimburse expenses of, any Debtor Professional or to guarantee that the Debtors have sufficient funds to pay such compensation
or reimbursement.

    23 

     

    

12.           Restrictions
on Use of Funds. Notwithstanding anything in this Interim Order or the DIP Loan Documents to the contrary, no proceeds of the DIP
Facility or any DIP Collateral (including, without limitation, Cash Collateral) or any portion of the Carve-Out may be used in any manner
to (a) request authorization to obtain postpetition loans or other financial accommodations pursuant to section 364(c) or (d) of the
Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, other than from the DIP Agent or DIP Lenders, unless the proceeds of such loans or accommodations are or
will be sufficient, and will be used, to indefeasibly pay in full in cash all DIP Obligations, (b) pay any amount for any use not provided
for under Section 2.3 of the DIP Credit Agreement and as set forth in the DIP Budget (subject to the Permitted Variances), (c)
investigate, assert, join, commence, support or prosecute any cause of action or claim, counter-claim, action, proceeding, application,
motion, objection, defense or other contested matter seeking any order, judgment, determination or similar relief against the DIP Agent
or the DIP Lenders, or any of their respective Related Parties (in their respective capacities as such), with respect to any transaction,
occurrence, omission, or action related to the Debtors, including, without limitation, (i) any Avoidance Actions or other actions arising
under chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code; (ii) any action relating to any act or omission related to, or aspect of, the relationship between
or among any of the DIP Agent or the DIP Lenders, (in their respective capacities as such), on the one hand, and the Debtors or any of
their Affiliates, on the other; (iii) any action with respect to the validity and extent of the DIP Obligations or the validity, perfection,
extent, enforceability and/or priority of the DIP Liens; (iv) any action seeking to invalidate, set aside, avoid or subordinate, in whole
or in part, the DIP Liens; or (v) any action that has the effect of preventing, hindering or delaying, whether directly or indirectly,
the DIP Agent or the DIP Lenders, in respect of the enforcement of their liens and security interests in the DIP Collateral or Cash Collateral;
(vi) pay any Claim of a Creditor (as such terms are defined in the Bankruptcy Code) without the prior written consent of the DIP Agent
and the Requisite Lenders in accordance with the DIP Credit Agreement (or all affected Lenders to the extent required by the DIP Credit
Agreement) unless otherwise approved by the Court; and/or (vii) use or seek to use Cash Collateral or sell or otherwise dispose of DIP
Collateral, unless otherwise permitted hereby or by the DIP Loan Documents, without the consent of the DIP Agent and the Requisite Lenders
in accordance with the DIP Credit Agreement (or all affected Lenders to the extent required by the DIP Credit Agreement).

    24 

     

    

13.          Prohibition
on Granting of Additional Liens and Interests. No liens, claims, interests or priority status, other than the Carve-Out or Permitted
Priority Liens, if any, having a lien or administrative priority superior to, pari passu with, or junior to that of the DIP Liens
or the DIP Superpriority Claim granted by this Interim Order, shall be granted while any portion of the DIP Obligations remain outstanding,
or any commitment under the DIP Loan Documents remains in effect, without the prior written consent of the DIP Agent and the Requisite
Lenders in accordance with the DIP Credit Agreement (or all affected Lenders to the extent required by the DIP Credit Agreement).

    25 

     

    

14.           Release.
The release, discharge, waivers, settlements, compromises, and agreements set forth in this paragraph 14 shall be deemed effective upon
entry of the Interim Order. Each Borrower, for itself and on behalf of its Subsidiaries, successors and assigns (collectively, “Releasors”
and, individually, a “Releasor”), hereby (a) releases, acquits, and forever discharges each of the DIP Lenders, the
DIP Agent, and any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, representatives, Subsidiaries, Affiliates or
shareholders (the “Releasees”) from any and all liabilities, claims, demands, actions or causes of action of every
kind or nature (if any there be), whether absolute or contingent, due or to become due, disputed or undisputed, liquidated or unliquidated,
at law or in equity, or known or unknown, that any Releasor now has, ever had or hereafter may have against the Releasees based on acts,
transactions or circumstances that have occurred or been consummated on or before the date of the Closing Date and that arise out of
or relate to (i) the DIP Facility or any other extension of credit by the DIP Lenders to the Borrowers and their Affiliates including
any equitable subordination or recharacterization claims or defenses; (ii) any of the DIP Loan Documents or DIP Collateral; (iii) any
transaction, act or omission contemplated by or described in or concluded under any of the DIP Loan Documents; or (iv) any aspect of
the dealings or relationships between or among the Releasors, on the one hand, and the Releasees on the other hand, under or in connection
with any of the DIP Loan Documents or any transaction, act or omission contemplated by or described in or concluded under any of the
DIP Loan Documents (collectively, the “Claims”); and (b) waive any and all defenses (including, without limitation,
offsets and counterclaims of any nature or kind) as to the validity, perfection, priority, enforceability and non-avoidability of the
DIP Obligations and the DIP Liens. The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the termination of the DIP Facility and any other DIP
Loan Documents and payment in full of any Obligations thereunder. Each Borrower, for itself and on behalf of its successors, assigns
and other legal representatives, hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that such Releasor shall not sue any Releasee on the basis
of any Claim released, remised and discharged pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, and if any Releasor violates the
foregoing covenant, such Releasor, for itself and its successors and assigns, agrees to pay, in addition to such other damages as any
Releasee may sustain as a result of such violation, all attorneys’ fees and costs incurred by any Releasee as a result of such
violation.

    26 

     

    

REMEDIES;
MODIFICATION OF AUTOMATIC STAY

 

15.          Remedies
and Stay Modification.

 

(a)           The
occurrence of any of the following events, unless waived by the DIP Agent in writing and in accordance with the terms of the DIP Loan
Documents, shall constitute an event of default (an “Event of Default”) of this Interim Order: (i) the failure of
the Debtors to perform, in any respect, any of the terms, provisions, covenants, or obligations under this Interim Order, or (ii) the
occurrence of an “Event of Default” under the DIP Credit Agreement.

 

(b)          The
automatic stay provisions of section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code are, to the extent applicable, vacated and modified without further application
or motion to, or order from, the Court, to the extent necessary so as to permit the following, and neither section 105 of the Bankruptcy
Code nor any other provision of the Bankruptcy Code or applicable law shall be utilized to prohibit the exercise, enjoyment and enforcement
of any of such rights, benefits, privileges and remedies regardless of any change in circumstances (whether or not foreseeable), whether
or not a Default or an Event of Default under the DIP Loan Documents or a default by any of the Debtors of any of their obligations under
this Interim Order has occurred, including without limitation: (i) to require all cash, checks or other collections or proceeds from
DIP Collateral received by any of the Debtors to be deposited in accordance with the requirements of the DIP Loan Documents, and to apply
any amounts so deposited and other amounts paid to or received by the DIP Secured Parties under the DIP Loan Documents in accordance
with any requirements of the DIP Loan Documents; (ii) the right to file or record any financing statements, mortgages or other instruments
or other documents to evidence the security interests in and liens upon the DIP Collateral; (iii) the right to charge and collect any
interest, fees, costs and other expenses accruing at any time under the DIP Loan Documents as provided therein; (iv) the right to give
the Debtors any notice provided for in any of the DIP Loan Documents or this Interim Order; and (v) the right to declare (1) the termination,
reduction or restriction of any further commitment under the DIP Loan Documents to the extent any such commitment remain unfunded; (2)
all DIP Obligations to be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest, or other notice of any kind, all of which
are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower; and/or (3) the termination of the DIP Loan Documents as to any future liability or obligation
of the DIP Agent or any DIP Lender, but without affecting any of the Liens on the Collateral or the Obligations of any Borrower; provided
that with respect to the enforcement of the Liens on the Collateral or the exercise of any other rights or remedies with respect
to the Collateral (including rights to set-off or to apply any amounts in any bank accounts that are a part of the Collateral), the DIP
Agent shall file a written notice with the Court, which notice can be the same as the Carve-Out Notice (the “Default Notice”)
setting forth the Events of Default and, if a Default Notice is filed, shall serve such Default Notice upon the Debtors, their counsel,
counsel to the Creditors’ Committee (if any) and the U.S. Trustee, effective five (5) Business Days after the Default Notice (the
 “Enforcement Notice Period”) is filed, the DIP Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Requisite Lenders, shall be
deemed to have received complete relief from the automatic stay imposed by section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and shall be authorized,
without further notice to the Borrower or any other interested party, to enforce the Liens on the Collateral or exercise any other rights
or remedies with respect to the Collateral (including rights to set-off or to apply any amounts in any bank accounts that are a part
of the Collateral).

    27 

     

    

(c)           During
the Enforcement Notice Period, (i) the Debtors shall be prohibited from requesting any further draws under the DIP Facility and (ii)
the only basis on which the Debtors shall be entitled to seek an emergency hearing within the Enforcement Notice Period with the Court
shall be to contest whether an Event of Default has occurred and/or is continuing and the DIP Agent and the DIP Lenders shall consent
to such emergency hearing. The Enforcement Notice Period shall run concurrently with any notice period provided for under the DIP Loan
Documents.

    28 

     

    

(d)          The
automatic stay of section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, to the extent applicable, shall be deemed terminated without the necessity of
any further action by the Court in the event that the Debtors, the Creditors’ Committee (if any), any other party in interest and/or
the U.S. Trustee have not obtained an order from this Court to the contrary prior to the expiration of the Enforcement Notice Period.

 

(e)           If
the DIP Lenders are entitled, and have elected in accordance with the provisions hereof, to direct the DIP Agent to enforce the DIP Liens
or exercise any other default-related remedies following expiration of the Enforcement Notice Period, the Debtors shall cooperate with
the DIP Agent and the DIP Lenders in connection with such enforcement by, among other things, (i) providing at all reasonable times access
to the Debtors’ premises to representatives or agents of the DIP Agent or the DIP Lenders (including any collateral liquidator
or consultant), (ii) providing the DIP Agent and the DIP Lenders and their representatives or agents, at all reasonable times access
to the Debtors’ books and records and any information or documents requested by the DIP Agent or the DIP Lenders or their respective
representatives, (iii) performing all other obligations set forth in the DIP Loan Documents, and (iv) taking reasonable steps to safeguard
and protect the DIP Collateral, and the Debtors shall not otherwise interfere with or actively encourage others to interfere with the
DIP Agent’s or the DIP Lenders’ enforcement of rights.

 

(f)          
Upon the occurrence of the Termination Date, the DIP Agent, at the direction of the Requisite Lenders in accordance with the DIP Credit
Agreement (or all affected Lenders to the extent required by the DIP Credit Agreement), shall have no further obligation to provide financing
under the DIP Loan Documents.

    29 

     

    

(g)          This
Court shall retain exclusive jurisdiction to hear and resolve any disputes and enter any orders required by the provisions of this Interim
Order and relating to the application, re-imposition or continuance of the automatic stay of section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or
other injunctive relief requested.

 

MISCELLANEOUS

 

16.           Limitation
on Section 506(c) Claims. Subject to entry of the Final Order, no costs or expenses of administration which have been or may be incurred
in these Chapter 11 Cases or any Successor Case(s) at any time shall be surcharged against, and no person may seek to surcharge any costs
or expenses of administration against, the DIP Lenders or any of their respective claims, the Carve-Out or the DIP Collateral, pursuant
to sections 105 or 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, without the prior written consent, as applicable, of the DIP Agent and
the Requisite Lenders in accordance with the DIP Credit Agreement (or all affected Lenders to the extent required by the DIP Credit Agreement).
No action, inaction, or acquiescence by the DIP Lenders shall be deemed to be or shall be considered evidence of any alleged consent
to a surcharge against the DIP Lenders, any of their respective claims, the Carve-Out or the DIP Collateral.

 

17.          No
Marshaling. Subject to entry of the Final Order, the DIP Secured Parties shall not be subject to the equitable doctrine of “marshaling”
or any other similar doctrine with respect to any of the DIP Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the immediately preceding
sentence, no party shall be entitled, directly or indirectly, to direct the exercise of remedies or seek (whether by order of this Court
or otherwise) to marshal or otherwise control the disposition of the DIP Collateral after an Event of Default under the DIP Loan Documents
or termination or breach under the DIP Loan Documents.

    30 

     

    

18.           Payments
Free and Clear. Any and all payments or proceeds remitted to, by or through the DIP Agent on behalf of the DIP Secured Parties or
to the DIP Lenders or their counsel pursuant to the provisions of this Interim Order, the DIP Loan Documents or any subsequent order
of the Court shall be irrevocable, received free and clear of any claim, charge, assessment or other liability, including, without limitation,
any claim or charge arising out of or based on, directly or indirectly, section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, whether asserted
or assessed by, through, or on behalf of the Debtors.

 

19.           Additional
Perfection Measures. The DIP Liens shall be perfected by operation of law immediately upon entry of this Interim Order. None of the
Debtors, the DIP Agent or the DIP Lenders shall be required to enter into or obtain landlord waivers, mortgagee waivers, bailee waivers,
warehouseman waivers or any other waiver or consent, or to file or record financing statements, mortgages, deeds of trust, leasehold
mortgages, notices of lien or similar instruments in any jurisdiction (including, trademark, copyright, trade name or patent assignment
filings with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, Copyright Office or any similar agency with respect to intellectual property
or filings with any other federal agencies/authorities), or obtain consents from any licensor or similarly situated party-in-interest,
or take any other action in order to validate and to perfect the DIP Liens.

 

(a)           If
the DIP Agent (including at the direction of the Requisite Lenders in accordance with the DIP Credit Agreement (or all affected Lenders
to the extent required by the DIP Credit Agreement)), chooses to take any action to obtain consents from any landlord, licensor or other
party in interest, to file mortgages, financing statements, notices of lien or similar instruments or to otherwise record or perfect
such security interests and liens, the DIP Agent is hereby authorized, but not directed, to take such action or to request that the Debtors
take such action on its behalf (and the Debtors are hereby authorized and directed to take such action), and no defect in any such act
shall affect or impair the validity, perfection and enforceability of the liens granted hereunder.

    31 

     

    

(b)           In
lieu of obtaining such consents or filing any such mortgages, financing statements, notices of lien or similar instruments, the DIP Agent
may choose to file a true and complete copy of this Interim Order in any place at which any such instruments would or could be filed,
together with a description of the Collateral, and such filing by the DIP Agent shall have the same effect as if such mortgages, deeds
of trust, financing statements, notices of lien or similar instruments had been filed or recorded at the time and on the date of entry
of this Interim Order.

 

20.           Application
of Collateral Proceeds. To the extent required by this Interim Order and the DIP Loan Documents, after an Event of Default, the Debtors
are hereby authorized and directed to remit to the DIP Agent, subject to the payment of or reserve for the Carve-Out and allowed claims
secured by Permitted Priority Liens as described herein, one-hundred percent (100%) of all collections on, and proceeds of, the DIP Collateral,
and the automatic stay provisions of section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code are hereby modified to permit the DIP Agent or the DIP Lenders
to retain and apply all collections, remittances, and proceeds of the DIP Collateral in accordance with the DIP Loan Documents. In furtherance
of the foregoing:

 

(a)           all
cash, securities, investment property and other items of any Debtor deposited with any bank or other financial institution, other than
any Excluded Deposit Account (as defined in the Pledge and Security Agreement), shall be subject to a perfected, first priority security
interest in favor of the DIP Agent (or its designee);

 

(b)          upon
the occurrence of the Termination Date and the expiration of the Enforcement Notice Period, each bank or other financial institution
with an account of any Debtor is hereby authorized and instructed to (i) comply at all times with any instructions originated by the
DIP Agent (or its designee) to such bank or financial institution directing the disposition of cash, securities, investment property
and other items from time to time credited to such account, without further consent of any Debtor, including, without limitation, any
instruction to send to the DIP Agent (or its designee) by wire transfer (to such account as the DIP Agent (or its designee) shall specify,
or in such other manner as the DIP Agent (or its designee) shall direct) all such cash, securities, investment property and other items
held by it and (ii) subject to entry of the Final Order, waive any right of set off, banker’s lien or other similar lien, security
interest or encumbrance as against the DIP Agent (or its designee); and

    32 

     

    

(c)           any
deposit account control agreement executed and delivered by any bank or other financial institution, any Debtor and the DIP Agent in
connection with the DIP Loan Documents shall establish control in favor of the DIP Agent of any and all accounts subject thereto and
any and all cash, securities, investment property and other items of any Debtor deposited therein to secure the DIP Obligations.

 

21.          Delivery
of Documentation. The Debtors (and/or their legal or financial advisors) shall deliver to the DIP Agent and counsel to the DIP Lenders,
all financial reports, budgets, forecasts, and all other legal or financial documentation, pleadings and/or filings that are either (a)
required to be provided (by the Debtors and/or their legal or financial advisors) to the DIP Agent and/or the DIP Lenders pursuant to
the DIP Loan Documents or (b) reasonably requested by the DIP Agent and/or the DIP Lenders (or their legal and financial advisors), as
the case may be.

    33 

     

    

22.           Access
to Books and Records. The Debtors (and/or their legal and financial advisors) will (a) keep proper books, records and accounts in
accordance with GAAP in which full, true, and correct entries shall be made of all dealings and transactions in relation to their business
and activities, (b) cooperate, consult with and provide to the DIP Secured Parties all such information as required or allowed under
the DIP Loan Documents or the provisions of this Interim Order or that is afforded to the Creditors’ Committee (if any) and/or
the Creditors’ Committee’s respective legal or financial advisors (if any), (c) permit, consistent with the DIP Loan Documents,
representatives of the DIP Secured Parties to visit and inspect any of their respective properties, to examine and make abstracts or
copies from any of their respective books and records, to conduct a collateral audit and analysis of their respective inventory and accounts,
to tour the Debtors’ business premises and other properties, and to discuss, and provide advice with respect to, their respective
affairs, finances, properties, business operations and accounts with their respective officers, employees and independent public accountants
as often as may reasonably be desired, and (d) permit, consistent with the DIP Loan Documents, representatives of the DIP Secured Parties
to consult with and advise the Debtors’ management on matters concerning the general status of the Debtors’ business, financial
condition and operations.

 

23.           Lenders
Not Responsible Persons; No Control. In (a) making the decision to make the DIP Loans; (b) administering the DIP Loans; (c) extending
other financial accommodations to the Debtors under the DIP Loan Documents; and (d) making the decision to collect the indebtedness and
obligations of the Debtors, none of the DIP Secured Parties shall be considered to (i) owe any fiduciary obligation to the Debtors or
any other party with respect to their exercise of any consent rights afforded them under the DIP Loan Documents or this Interim Order
or (ii) be exercising control over the Debtors or their operations, have authority to determine the manner in which any of the Debtors’
operations are conducted, or acting in any way as a responsible person, a control person, insider or as an owner or operator of the Debtors
or any of their Affiliates by virtue of any of the actions taken with respect to, in connection with, related to, or arising from this
Interim Order, the DIP Facility, and/or the DIP Loan Documents, under any applicable law.

    34 

     

    

24.           Successors
and Assigns. The DIP Loan Documents and the provisions of this Interim Order shall be binding upon the Debtors, the DIP Agent, the
DIP Lenders, and each of their respective successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of the Debtors, the DIP Agent, the DIP
Lenders, and each of their respective successors and assigns including, without limitation, any trustee, examiner with expanded powers,
responsible officer, estate administrator or representative or similar person appointed in a case for any Debtor under any chapter of
the Bankruptcy Code. The terms and provisions of this Interim Order shall also be binding on all of the Debtors’ creditors, equity
holders and all other parties in interest, including, but not limited to a trustee appointed under chapter 7 or chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy
Code.

 

25.           Debtors
Will Not Challenge Credit Bid Rights. No Debtor shall object to any DIP Lender credit bidding up to the full amount of its outstanding
DIP Obligations, including, without limitation, any accrued interest and expenses, in any sale of any DIP Collateral whether such sale
is effectuated through section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code in a chapter 11 or chapter 7 proceeding, under section 1129 in a chapter 11
proceeding, by a chapter 7 trustee in a chapter 7 proceeding or otherwise. The DIP Lenders expressly reserve the right to credit bid
up to the full amount of their outstanding DIP Obligations including, without limitation, all principal, interest, fees, expenses, call
and make-whole premiums, yield maintenance premiums and other fees and charges.

 

26.           Binding
Nature of Agreement. Each of the DIP Loan Documents to which any of the Debtors are or will become a party shall constitute legal,
valid and binding obligations of the Debtors party thereto, enforceable in accordance with their terms. Unless otherwise consented to
in writing, the rights, remedies, powers, privileges, liens and priorities of the DIP Agent, and the DIP Lenders provided for in this
Interim Order, the DIP Loan Documents or otherwise shall not be modified, altered or impaired in any manner by any subsequent order (including
a confirmation or sale order), by any plan of reorganization or liquidation in these Chapter 11 Cases, by the dismissal or conversion
of these Chapter 11 Cases or in any subsequent case under the Bankruptcy Code.

    35 

     

    

27.           Subsequent
Reversal or Modification. This Interim Order is entered pursuant to section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code, and Bankruptcy Rules 4001(b)
and (c), granting the DIP Lenders all protections afforded by section 364(e) of the Bankruptcy Code.

 

28.           Collateral
Rights. If any party who holds a lien or security interest in DIP Collateral that is junior and/or subordinate to the DIP Liens in
such DIP Collateral receives or is paid the proceeds of such DIP Collateral prior to the indefeasible payment in full in cash and the
complete satisfaction of all DIP Obligations under the DIP Loan Documents and termination of the commitment in accordance with the DIP
Loan Documents, such junior or subordinate lienholder shall be deemed to have received, and shall hold, the proceeds of any such DIP
Collateral in trust for the DIP Lenders and shall immediately turn over such proceeds for application by the DIP Agent to repay the DIP
Obligations in accordance with the DIP Loan Documents, and this Interim Order until indefeasibly paid in full in cash.

 

29.           No
Waiver. This Interim Order shall not be construed in any way as a waiver or relinquishment of any rights that the DIP Agent, DIP
Lenders, may have to bring or be heard on any matter brought before this Court.

 

30.           Sale/Conversion/Dismissal.
If an order dismissing or converting any of these Chapter 11 Cases under sections 305 or 1112 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, or
appointing a chapter 11 trustee or a responsible officer or examiner with expanded powers, is at any time entered, such order shall provide
that (a) the DIP Liens, and the DIP Superpriority Claim granted hereunder and in the DIP Loan Documents shall continue in full force
and effect, remain binding on all parties-in-interest, and maintain their priorities as provided in this Interim Order and the DIP Loan
Documents until all DIP Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full in cash and completely satisfied and the commitments under the DIP
Loan Documents are terminated in accordance with the DIP Loan Documents and (b) this Court shall retain jurisdiction, notwithstanding
such dismissal, for purposes of enforcing the DIP Liens and the DIP Superpriority Claim set forth in paragraphs 7–9 hereof.

    36 

     

    

31.           Limits
on Lenders’ Liability. Nothing in this Interim Order or in any of the DIP Loan Documents or any other documents related thereto
shall in any way be construed or interpreted to impose or allow the imposition upon the DIP Secured Parties of any liability for any
claims arising from any and all activities by the Debtors or any of their subsidiaries or Affiliates in the operation of their businesses
or in connection with their restructuring efforts. So long as the DIP Secured Parties comply with their Obligations under the DIP Loan
Documents and their obligations, if any, under applicable law (including the Bankruptcy Code), (a) the DIP Secured Parties shall not,
in any way or manner, be liable or responsible for (i) the safekeeping of the DIP Collateral, (ii) any loss or damage thereto occurring
or arising in any manner or fashion from any cause, (iii) any diminution in the value thereof or (iv) any act or default of any carrier,
servicer, bailee, custodian, forwarding agency or other person; and (b) all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the DIP Collateral
shall be borne by the Debtors.

 

32.           Priority
of Terms. To the extent of any conflict between or among (a) the express terms or provisions of any of the DIP Loan Documents, the
Motion, the Requested Relief, any other order of this Court or any other agreements, on the one hand, and (b) the terms and provisions
of this Interim Order, on the other hand, unless such term or provision herein is phrased in terms of “as defined in” “as
set forth in” or “as more fully described in” the DIP Loan Documents (or words of similar import), the terms and provisions
of this Interim Order shall govern.

    37 

     

    

33.           No

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

 

THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) made and entered into as of May 14, 2021 (the “Effective Date”), by and between BKEP Management, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and David A. Woodward (the “Executive”).

 

W I T N E S S E T H:

 

WHEREAS, the Executive has been appointed by the Company to the position of Chief Executive Officer effective as of June 22, 2020;

 

WHEREAS the Company wishes to secure the services of the Executive as Chief Executive Officer subject to the contractual terms and conditions set forth herein; and

 

WHEREAS, the Executive is willing to enter into this Agreement upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and agreements set forth herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

1.    Employment. As of the Effective Date, the Company hereby agrees to continue to employ the Executive, and the Executive hereby agrees to accept such continued employment with the Company, all upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.

 

2.    Term of Employment. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and unless earlier terminated as provided for herein, the Executive shall be employed hereunder for a term commencing on the Effective Date and ending on the third anniversary of the Effective Date (such period between the Effective Date and the third anniversary of the Effective Date, the “Initial Term”). Unless the Executive’s employment hereunder has been earlier terminated, upon the third anniversary of the Effective Date and on each subsequent anniversary thereafter, the term of the Executive’s employment hereunder shall automatically renew and extend for a period of twelve (12) months (each such twelve (12)-month period, a “Renewal Term”) unless written notice of non-renewal (a “Notice of Non-Renewal”) has been delivered by either party to the other at least ninety (90) days prior to the expiration of the then-existing Initial Term or Renewal Term, as applicable. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Employee’s employment hereunder may be terminated at any time in accordance with Section 5. The period from the Effective Date through the expiration of this Agreement or, if sooner, the termination of Employee’s employment pursuant to this Agreement, regardless of the time or reason for such termination, shall be referred to herein as the “Term.”

 

3.    Duties and Responsibilities.

 

A.    Capacity. During the Term, the Executive shall serve in the capacity of Chief Executive Officer of the Company and of Blueknight Energy Partners G.P., L.L.C. (the “General Partner”), and Executive shall report to the Board of Directors of the General Partner (the “Board”).

 

 

1

 

 

 

B.    Duties. During the Term, and excluding any periods of disability, vacation or other leave to which the Executive is entitled, the Executive shall devote his full business time to the management of the business and affairs of the Company, the General Partner and Blueknight Energy Partners, L.P. (the “MLP”). The Executive may be required by the Board to provide services to, or otherwise serve as an officer or director of, any direct or indirect subsidiary of the Company, the General Partner or the MLP. During the Term, it shall not be a violation of this Agreement for the Executive to (i) serve on civic or charitable boards or committees, and (ii) deliver lectures or fulfill speaking engagements, provided that such activities do not unreasonably interfere with the performance of the Executive’s duties hereunder or violate any obligations that the Executive may have to the Company, the General Partner, the MLP or any of their direct or indirect subsidiaries (collectively, the Company, the General Partner, the MLP and their respective direct and indirect subsidiaries are referred to herein as the “Company Group”).

 

C.    Standard of Performance. The Executive will perform his duties under this Agreement with fidelity and loyalty, to the best of his ability, experience and talent and in a manner consistent with his duties and responsibilities. Such standard of performance is in addition to all other fiduciary and other obligations, including all statutory and common law obligations, applicable to the Executive during the Term.

 

4.    Compensation.

 

A.    Base Salary. The Company shall pay the Executive a salary (the “Base Salary”) at an annualized rate of $412,000. The Base Salary shall be payable in accordance with the general payroll practices of the Company in effect from time to time. During the Term, the Base Salary shall be reviewed at least annually by the Board after consultation with the Executive and may from time to time be increased as solely determined by the Board. Effective as of the date of any such increase, the Base Salary as so increased or, if permitted by the following sentence, as so decreased, shall be considered the new Base Salary for all purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive’s Base Salary may be decreased, following written notice to the Executive, by up to 10% if such a decrease is part of an across-the-board reduction implemented for Company executives and necessitated, in the opinion of the Board, by a significant business disruption or loss of revenue for the Company Group.

 

B.    Make-Whole Payments. The Company and the Executive are parties to that certain letter dated March 29, 2019 (the “Offer of Employment Letter”) pursuant to which the Company committed to make a payment to the Executive of $200,00, less applicable taxes and withholdings, (a “Make-Whole Installment Payment”) on December 31, 2021, if certain terms and conditions were satisfied. The Company hereby agrees that: (i) so long as the Executive is continuously employed hereunder between the Effective Date and December 31, 2021, then the Company will provide the Executive with a Make-Whole Installment Payment, which payment will be provided no later than January 15, 2022.

 

C.    Annual Bonus. The Executive shall be eligible for discretionary bonus awards payable in cash or common units of the MLP, as so determined solely by the Board, based on performance objectives determined by the Board, provided the Executive is employed by the Company on the date such payment is made.

 

2

 

 

 

D.    Long-Term Incentives. Awards of unit options, unit grants, restricted units and/or other forms of equity-based compensation to the Executive may be made from time to time during the Term by the Board in its sole discretion, whose decision will be based upon performance and award guidelines for senior executives of the Company established periodically by the Board in its sole discretion.

 

E.    Benefits.

 

(1)    If and to the extent that the Company maintains employee benefit plans (including, but not limited to, pension, profit-sharing, disability, accident, medical, life insurance, and hospitalization plans) (it being understood that the Company may but shall not be obligated to do so), the Executive shall be entitled to participate therein in accordance with the terms of the applicable plans in effect from time to time and the Company’s regular practices with respect to similarly situated senior executives. The Company will have the right to amend or terminate any such benefit plans it may choose to establish.

 

(2)    The Executive shall be entitled to prompt reimbursement from the Company for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by him in the course of the performance of his duties hereunder, upon the submission of appropriate documentation in accordance with the practices, policies and procedures applicable to other senior executives of the Company in effect from time to time.

 

(3)    The Executive shall be entitled to paid-time-off each year (which shall accrue and must be taken pursuant the Company’s applicable paid-time-off policies in effect from time to time) and such holidays and other paid or unpaid leaves of absence as are consistent with the Company’s normal policies available to other senior executives of the Company (and which shall take into account the duration of the Executive’s employment with the Company, including such employment prior to the Effective Date) or as are otherwise approved by the Board.

 

F.    Payment by Affiliates. Compensation and benefits provided under this Agreement may, at the election of the Company, be provided for administrative convenience by any of the Company’s affiliates (including any other member of the Company Group).

 

5.    Termination of Employment.

 

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2 hereof, the Executive’s employment hereunder shall terminate under any of the following conditions:

 

A.    Non-Renewal. In the event that one party provides the other party with a Notice of Non-Renewal pursuant to Section 2, the Executive’s employment hereunder shall terminate (unless the parties agree to an earlier date of termination) upon the expiration of the Initial Term or Renewal Term, as applicable, in effect when such Notice of Non-Renewal is given.

 

B.    Death. The Executive’s employment under this Agreement shall terminate automatically upon his death.

 

 

3

 

 

 

C.    Total Disability. The Company shall have the right to terminate this Agreement if the Executive becomes Totally Disabled. For purposes of this Agreement, “Totally Disabled” means that either (i) the Executive is unable to perform the essential duties of his position due to a physical or mental impairment that continues, or can reasonably be expected to continue, for a period in excess of ninety (90) consecutive days or one hundred-eighty (180) days, whether or not consecutive (in each case, after giving effect to reasonable accommodation, if available and required by applicable law), in any twelve (12)-month period or (ii) the Executive is, by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months, receiving income replacement benefits for a period of not less than three months under an accident and health plan covering employees of the Company or any entity that would be considered a single “service recipient” with the Company pursuant to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Prior to a determination that the Executive is Totally Disabled, but after the Executive has exhausted all sick leave and vacation benefits provided by the Company, the Executive shall continue to receive the Base Salary, offset by any disability benefits the Executive may be eligible to receive.

 

D.    Termination by the Company for Cause. The Executive’s employment hereunder may be terminated for Cause upon written notice by the Company. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean:

 

(1)    indictment or conviction of the Executive of any felony or a crime involving moral turpitude;

 

(2)    the Executive’s willful and intentional failure or willful and intentional refusal to follow reasonable and lawful instructions of the Board;

 

(3)    the Executive’s material breach or default in the performance of his obligations under this Agreement; or

 

(4)    the Executive’s material violation of any policy or code of conduct of any member of the Company Group applicable to him (and made known to him), or any violation of any securities law or any law applicable to the workplace (including any law regarding anti-harassment, anti-discrimination, or anti-retaliation); or

 

(5)    the Executive’s act of misappropriation, embezzlement, intentional fraud or similar conduct involving the Company or any other member of the Company Group.

 

The Executive may not be terminated for Cause pursuant to subsections (2) and (3) above unless (so long as such circumstances are capable of cure), the Executive is given written notice of the circumstances constituting Cause and a reasonable period to cure such circumstances, which period shall be no less than 30 days.

 

E.    Termination by the Company without Cause. The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder for convenience at any time and for any reason, or no reason at all, upon written notice to the Executive.

 

 

4

 

 

 

F.    Resignation for Good Reason. So long as the conditions of this Section 5.F have been satisfied, the Executive’s employment hereunder may be terminated by the Executive for Good Reason on written notice by the Executive to the Company. For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” means the occurrence of any of the following circumstances without the Executive’s consent:

 

(1)    a material reduction in the Executive’s Base Salary; provided that, for avoidance of doubt, any reduction in the Executive’s Base Salary as pursuant to the terms of Section 4.A would not be considered a material reduction in the Executives’ Base Salary as set forth in this Section 5.F(1) and therefore would not constitute a Good Reason;

 

(2)    prior to the issuance of a Notice of Non-Renewal, a material diminution of the Executive’s duties, authority or responsibilities as in effect immediately prior to such diminution; or

 

(3)    the relocation of the Executive’s principal work location to a location more than 50 miles from its current location as of the Effective Date.

 

In order to be eligible for payment on account of a Good Reason termination, the Executive must: (i) provide written notice to the Company within 90 days following the first event or condition which gives rise to the Executive’s claim of Good Reason under this section (the “Initial Breach”); (ii) provide the Company with 30 days from the date of such notice in which to “cure” such event or condition; and (iii) if such cure does not occur, actually terminate employment within 30 days following the expiration of the cure period.

 

G.    Resignation without Good Reason. In addition to the Executive’s right to terminate the Executive’s employment for Good Reason, the Executive shall have the right to terminate the Executive’s employment with the Company for convenience at any time and for any other reason, or no reason at all, upon thirty (30) days’ advance written notice to the Company; provided, however, that if the Executive has provided notice to the Company of the Executive’s termination of employment, the Company may determine, in its sole discretion, that such termination shall be effective on any date prior to the effective date of termination provided in such notice (and, if such earlier date is so required, then it shall not change the basis for the Executive’s termination of employment nor be construed or interpreted as a termination of employment pursuant to Section 5.E).

 

H.    Deemed Resignations. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Company and the Executive prior to the termination of the Executive’s employment, any termination of the Executive’s employment shall, without changing the basis for termination of employment or the impact of such termination on the Executive’s rights, if any, under this Agreement, constitute (i) an automatic resignation of the Executive from any position held as an officer of the Company and each affiliate of the Company (including each member of the Company Group), and (ii) an automatic resignation of the Executive from the Board (if applicable), from the board of directors or similar governing body of any affiliate of the Company (including each member of the Company Group) and from the board of directors or similar governing body of any corporation, limited liability entity or other entity in which the Company or any affiliate of the Company (including each member of the Company Group) holds an equity interest and with respect to which board or similar governing body the Executive serves as the Company’s or such affiliate’s designee or other representative.

As used herein, the “Release Expiration Date” is that date that is twenty-one (21) days following the date upon which the Company delivers the Release to the Executive (which shall occur no later than seven (7) days after the Date of Termination) or, in the event that such termination of employment is “in connection with an exit incentive or other employment termination program” (as such phrase is defined in the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967), the date that is forty-five (45) days following such delivery date.

D.    Death or Total Disability. Upon termination of the Executive’s employment pursuant to Section 5.B due to the death or due to the Executive’s Total Disability pursuant to Section 5.C, in each case prior to the end of a then-existing Initial Term or Renewal Term, then: (i) the Executive or the Executive’s estate (as applicable) shall be eligible for the Accrued Benefits; (ii) in the event of a termination due to the Executive’s death, the Executive’s estate shall be eligible for any death benefit payable to such estate under a plan or policy provided by the Company to provide such benefits to the Executive; (iii) in the event of a termination due to the Executive’s Total Disability and the Company does not provide a long-term disability insurance program for which the Executive would be eligible, the Executive shall receive the Severance Payment in lump-sum payment, on or before the 60th day following the Date of Termination; and (iv) subject to the terms of this Section 6.D., for the twelve (12)-month period following the Date of Termination or for so long as the Executive and the Executive’s dependents remain eligible for coverage under COBRA, whichever is shorter, subject to the Executive’s (or Executive’s dependents) timely election of COBRA continuation coverage, timely notification to the Company of such election and payment of the Executive’s portion of any COBRA premium (pursuant to procedures established by the Company), the Company shall also pay, on Executive’s behalf, in accordance with the Company’s standard practices regarding payment of the Company’s portion of premiums under its group health plans, the COBRA Benefit Payments; provided, however, that the election of COBRA continuation coverage shall remain the Executive’s (or his applicable dependents’) sole responsibility. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Executive becomes employed by another employer and is eligible to receive group medical insurance coverage under such other employer’s plan(s) (which eligibility shall be promptly reported to the Company by the Executive, the Company’s obligations to pay the COBRA Benefit Payments under this Section 6.D shall terminate; or, if the provision of the benefits described in this Section 6.D cannot be provided in the manner described herein without penalty, tax or other adverse impact on the Company, then the Company and the Executive shall negotiate in good faith in the attempt to determine an alternative manner in which the Company may provide substantially equivalent benefits to the Executive without such adverse impact on the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive’s (or, as applicable, his dependents’) eligibility for the COBRA Benefit Payments described in this Section 6.D(iii) is subject to the Executive’s (or, as applicable, his estate’s) timely satisfaction of the Release requirements described in the last two sentences of Section 6.B above.

 

E.    For the avoidance of doubt, the Executive shall not be eligible for any severance benefits or payments (including the Severance Payment or Non-Renewal Severance Payment, or any COBRA Benefit Payments or Non-Renewal COBRA Payments) in the event that the Executive’s employment hereunder ends upon the end of the Initial Term or a Renewal Term that follows the issuance by the Executive of a Notice of Non-Renewal as set forth in Section 2 or, if applicable, upon such earlier date following the issuance by the Executive of a Notice of Non-Renewal to which the parties may agree. Upon voluntary or involuntary termination of employment of the Executive for any reason whatsoever, the Executive shall continue to be subject to the provisions of Sections 7 and 8, hereof (it being understood and agreed that such provisions shall survive any termination or expiration of the Executive’s employment hereunder for any reason whatsoever).

 

F.    For the avoidance of doubt, while termination of employment with the Company will end the Company’s obligations pursuant to Section 4, termination of employment for purposes of rights to severance benefits under Sections 6.B., 6.C., or 6.D. of this Agreement shall not be deemed to have occurred until the Executive has terminated employment with the Company and all of its affiliates (including, as applicable, all members of the Company Group), for so long as such entities are considered a single service recipient for purposes of determining whether a ‘separation from service’ has occurred under Section 409A of the Code.

7.    Confidentiality and Return of Property; Intellectual Property.

 

A.    Confidential Information.

 

(1)    Company Information. The Company agrees that, following the Effective Date and in the course of the Executive’s employment hereunder, it will provide the Executive with, and the Executive will have access to, Confidential Information. The Executive agrees to use all Confidential Information, whether obtained by him before or after the Effective Date solely for the benefit of the Company or, as applicable, for the benefit of other members of the Company Group. Upon the termination of the Executive’s employment for any reason, the Company shall have no obligation to provide the Executive with its Confidential Information. “Confidential Information” means any confidential or proprietary information of the Company or any other member of the Company Group, including all: technical data, trade secrets or know-how, research, product plans, strategies, customer lists and information about customers (including about customers of the Company Group on whom the Executive called or with whom the Executive became acquainted during the term of the Executive’s employment), information about acquisition opportunities, software, developments, inventions, processes, formulas, technology, designs, work in process, techniques, improvements, drawings, engineering, training programs and procedures, pricing, rate information, hardware configuration information, marketing, finances or other business information disclosed to the Executive by the Company or another member of the Company Group (either directly or indirectly in writing, orally or by drawings or observation of parts or equipment), and all other information belonging to any member of the Company Group that gives any member of the Company Group a competitive advantage by virtue of it not being known to the general public. Confidential Information does not include any of the foregoing items which has become publicly known and made generally available through no wrongful act of the Executive or anyone acting in concert with the Executive of others who were under confidentiality obligations as to the information, item or items involved.

 

(2)    The Executive agrees at all times during the Term and thereafter, to hold in strictest confidence, and not to use, except for the exclusive benefit of the Company or other members of the Company Group, or to disclose to any person or entity without written authorization of the Board, any Confidential Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive further agrees nothing in this Agreement prohibits Executive from reporting to any governmental authority information concerning possible violations of law or regulation or making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of federal law or regulation or any other applicable law. This Agreement does not limit Executive’s right to receive an award for information provided to any governmental agencies. Pursuant to the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, Executive shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of any secret or confidential information that (i) is made (A) in confidence to a federal, state or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney and (B) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law or (ii) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal.

 

 

10

 

 

 

(3)    Third-Party Information. The Executive recognizes that the Company or another member of the Company Group has received and in the future will receive from third parties their confidential or proprietary information subject to a duty on the Company’s, or other members’ of the Company Group’s, part to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes. The Executive shall hold all such confidential or proprietary information in the strictest confidence and not disclose it to any person or entity or use it except as necessary in carrying out the Executive’s work for the Company or another member of the Company Group consistent with the Company’s or any other member of the Company Group’s agreement with such third party.

 

B.    Returning Company Documents. At the time of leaving the employ of the Company, the Executive will deliver to the Company (and will not keep in the Executive’s possession) specifications, drawings blueprints, sketches, materials, equipment, other documents or property (including all electronically stored information), or reproductions of any aforementioned items developed by the Executive pursuant to the Executive’s employment or engagement with the Company or any other member of the Company Group or otherwise belonging to the Company or any other member of the Company Group, or their respective successors or assigns.

 

C.    Intellectual Property.

 

(1)    The Executive agrees that the Company shall own, and the Executive shall (and hereby does) assign, all right, title and interest (including patent rights, copyrights, trade secret rights, mask work rights, trademark rights, and all other intellectual and industrial property rights of any sort throughout the world) relating to any and all inventions (whether or not patentable), discoveries, developments, improvements, innovations, works of authorship, mask works, designs, know-how, ideas, formulae, processes, techniques, data and information authored, created, contributed to, made or conceived or reduced to practice, in whole or in part, by the Executive during the period in which the Executive is or has been employed by or affiliated with the Company or any other member of the Company Group, whether or not registerable under U.S. law or the laws of other jurisdictions, that either (a) relate, at the time of conception, reduction to practice, creation, derivation or development, to any member of the Company Group’s businesses or actual or anticipated research or development, or (b) were developed on any amount of the Company’s or any other member of the Company Group’s time or with the use of any member of the Company Group’s equipment, supplies, facilities or Confidential Information (all of the foregoing collectively referred to herein as “Company Intellectual Property”), and the Executive shall promptly disclose all Company Intellectual Property to the Company in writing. To support the Executive’s disclosure obligation herein, the Executive shall keep and maintain adequate and current written records of all Company Intellectual Property made by the Executive (solely or jointly with others) during the period in which the Executive is or has been employed by or affiliated with the Company or any other member of the Company Group in such form as may be specified from time to time by the Company. These records shall be available to, and remain the sole property of, the Company or its designee at all times.

 

 

11

 

 

 

(2)    All of the Executive’s works of authorship and associated copyrights created during the period in which he is or has been employed by or affiliated with the Company or any other member of the Company Group and in the scope of the Executive’s employment or engagement shall be deemed to be “works made for hire” within the meaning of the Copyright Act. To the extent any right, title and interest in and to Company Intellectual Property cannot be assigned by the Executive to the Company, the Executive shall grant, and does hereby grant, to the Company Group an exclusive, perpetual, royalty-free, transferable, irrevocable, worldwide license (with rights to sublicense through multiple tiers of sublicensees) to make, have made, use, sell, offer for sale, import, export, reproduce, practice and otherwise commercialize such rights, title and interest.

 

(3)    The Executive recognizes that this Agreement will not be deemed to require assignment of any invention or intellectual property that he developed entirely on his own time without using the equipment, supplies, facilities, trade secrets, or Confidential Information of any member of the Company Group. In addition, this Agreement does not apply to any invention that qualifies fully for protection from assignment to the Company under any specifically applicable state law or regulation.

 

(4)    To the extent allowed by law, this Section applies to all rights that may be known as or referred to as “moral rights,” “artist’s rights,” “droit moral,” or the like, including without limitation those rights set forth in 17 U.S.C. §106A (collectively, “Moral Rights”). To the extent the Executive retains any Moral Rights under applicable law, the Executive hereby ratifies and consents to any action that may be taken with respect to such Moral Rights by or authorized by the Company or any member of the Company Group, and the Executive hereby waives and agrees not to assert any Moral Rights with respect to such Moral Rights. The Executive shall confirm any such ratifications, consents, waivers, and agreements from time to time as requested by the Company.

 

(5)    All inventions (whether or not patentable), original works of authorship, designs, know-how, mask works, ideas, information, developments, improvements, and trade secrets of which the Executive is the sole or joint author, creator, contributor, or inventor that were made or developed by the Executive prior to his employment with or affiliation with the Company or any other member of the Company Group, or in which he asserts any intellectual property right, and which are applicable to or relate in any way to the business, products, services, or demonstrably anticipated research and development or business of any member of the Company Group (“Prior Inventions”) are listed on Exhibit A, and the Executive represents that Exhibit A is a complete list of all such Prior Inventions. If no such list is attached, the Executive hereby represents and warrants that there are no Prior Inventions, and the Executive shall make no claim of any rights to any Prior Inventions. If, in the course of the Executive’s employment with or affiliation with the Company or any other member of the Company Group, he incorporates into the product, process, or device of any member of the Company Group a Prior Invention, the Company Group is hereby granted and will have a nonexclusive, royalty-free, irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide license to make, have made, modify, use, import, export, offer for sale, sell and otherwise commercialize such Prior Invention as part of or in connection with such product, process, or device of any member of the Company Group.

 

 

12

 

 

 

(6)    The Executive shall perform, during and after the period in which he is or has been employed by or affiliated with the Company or any other member of the Company Group, all acts deemed necessary or desirable by the Company to permit and assist each member of the Company Group, at the Company’s expense, in obtaining and enforcing the full benefits, enjoyment, rights and title throughout the world in the Company Intellectual Property and Confidential Information assigned, to be assigned, or licensed to the Company under this Agreement. Such acts may include execution of documents and assistance or cooperation (i) in the filing, prosecution, registration, and memorialization of assignment of any applicable patents, copyrights, mask work, or other applications, (ii) in the enforcement of any applicable patents, copyrights, mask work, moral rights, trade secrets, or other proprietary rights, and (iii) in other legal proceedings related to the Company Intellectual Property or Confidential Information.

 

(7)    In the event that the Company (or, as applicable, a member of the Company Group) is unable for any reason to secure the Executive’s signature to any document required to file, prosecute, register, or memorialize the assignment of any patent, copyright, mask work or other applications or to enforce any patent, copyright, mask work, moral right, trade secret or other proprietary right under any Confidential Information or Company Intellectual Property (including derivative works, improvements, renewals, extensions, continuations, divisionals, continuations in part, continuing patent applications, reissues, and reexaminations of such Company Intellectual Property), the Executive hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Company and each of the Company’s duly authorized officers and agents as his agents and attorneys-in-fact to act for and on the Executive’s behalf and instead of the Executive, (i) to execute, file, prosecute, register and memorialize the assignment of any such application, (ii) to execute and file any documentation required for such enforcement, and (iii) to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the filing, prosecution, registration, memorialization of assignment, issuance, and enforcement of patents, copyrights, mask works, moral rights, trade secrets or other rights under the Confidential Information or Company Intellectual Property, all with the same legal force and effect as if executed by Employee.

 

 

13

 

 

 

(8)    In the event that the Executive enters into, on behalf of any member of the Company Group, any contracts or agreements relating to any Confidential Information or Company Intellectual Property, the Executive shall assign such contracts or agreements to the Company (or the applicable member of the Company Group) promptly, and in any event, prior to the Executive’s Date of Termination. If the Company (or the applicable member of the Company Group) is unable for any reason to secure the Executive’s signature to any document required to assign said contracts or agreements, or if the Executive does not assign said contracts or agreements to the Company (or the applicable member of the Company Group) prior to the Executive’s termination, the Executive hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Company (or the applicable member of the Company Group) and each of the Company’s duly authorized officers and agents as the Executive’s agents and attorneys-in-fact to act for and on the Executive’s behalf and instead of

the Executive to execute said assignments and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the execution of said documents.

 

D.    Notification of New Employer. In the event that the Executive leaves the employ of the Company, the Executive hereby grants consent to notification by the Company and each other member of the Company Group to the Executive’s new employer about the Executive’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.

 

E.    Representations. The Executive agrees to execute any proper oath or verify any proper document required to carry out the terms of this Agreement. The Executive represents that his performance of all the terms of this Agreement will not breach any agreement to keep in confidence proprietary information acquired by the Executive in confidence or in trust prior to the Executive’s employment by the Company. The Executive has not entered into, and the Executive agrees that he will not enter into, any oral or written agreement in conflict herewith.

 

8.    Protective Covenants. In return for the Company’s provision of Confidential Information and the other consideration provided under this Agreement, and as a condition to the Executive’s employment hereunder, the Executive agrees to the following:

 

A.    Restriction on Interfering with Employee Relationships. During the Executive’s employment with the Company, and for a period of 12 months following the date that the Executive is no longer employed by any member of the Company Group, the Executive will not, either directly or indirectly, hire, call on, solicit, or take away, or attempt to call on, solicit or take away any of the employees or officers of the Company or any other member of the Company Group or encourage any employees or officers of the Company or any other member of the Company Group to terminate their relationship with the Company or any other member of the Company Group. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 8.A shall not prohibit the Executive from making general solicitations for employment, or hiring an individual who responds to such a solicitation, so long as such solicitation was not targeted at an employee or officer (or group of employees or officers) of the Company or any other member of the Company Group.

 

 

14

 

 

 

B.    Restriction on Interfering with Customer Relationships. During the Executive’s employment with the Company or any other member of the Company Group, the Executive will not, directly or indirectly, except in connection with the Executive’s employment with the Company or any other member of the Company Group, service, call on, solicit, or take away, or attempt to call on, solicit, or take away any of those customer entities and/or persons who conduct business with the Company or any other member of the Company Group. For a period of 12 months following the date that the Executive is no longer employed by any member of the Company Group, the Executive will not directly solicit with respect to any product or service that is the same or similar to that sold or provided by any member of the Company Group the sale of goods or services, or a combination thereof, from any of the established customers of any member of the Company Group.

 

C.    The Executive understands that the non-solicitation covenants of this Section 8 may limit his ability to earn a livelihood in a business similar to the business of the Company, but as an executive officer of the Company he nevertheless agrees and hereby acknowledges that: (i) the terms and provisions of this Agreement are reasonable and necessary to protect the Company’s, and the other members of the Company Group’s, interests; (ii) the consideration provided by the Company under this Agreement is not illusory; (iii) the consideration given by the Company under this Agreement, including any amounts or benefits contemplated to be provided to the Executive hereunder gives rise to the Company’s, and the other members of the Company Group’s, interest in restraining and prohibiting the Executive from interfering with the Company Group’s employee relationships or customer relationships as provided under this Section 8; (iv) the Executive’s covenant not to interfere with the Company Group’s employee relationships or customer relationships pursuant to this Section 8 is designed to enforce the Executive’s consideration (or return promises), including the Executive’s promise to not disclose Confidential Information under this Agreement; and (v) such provisions do not impose a greater restraint than is necessary to protect the goodwill or other business interests of the Company or the other members of the Company Group. In consideration of the foregoing, and in light of the Executive’s education, skills, and abilities, the Executive agrees that he will not assert that, and it should not be considered that, any provisions of Section 8 hereof are otherwise void, voidable, or unenforceable or should be voided or held unenforceable.

 

D.    The Executive agrees that the period during which the covenants contained in this Section 8 shall be effective shall be computed by excluding from such computation any time during which the Executive is in violation of any provision of this Section 8.

 

E.    The existence of any claim or cause of action by the Executive against the Company, whether predicated upon this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Company of covenants in this Section 8.

 

F.    In the event that the Executive breaches any provisions of Section 7 or this Section 8 or there is a threatened breach, then, in addition to all other rights and remedies which the Company may have, the Company shall (i) be entitled, without the posting of a bond or other security, to injunctive relief to enforce the restrictions contained in such Sections and (ii) seek a decision from a court of competent jurisdiction to require the Executive to account for and pay over to the Company all compensation, profits, monies, accruals, increments and other benefits (collectively, “Benefits”) derived or received by the Executive as a result of any transaction constituting a breach of any of the provisions of Sections 7 or 8 and the Executive hereby agrees to account for and pay over such Benefits to the Company.

 

 

15

 

 

 

G.    Each of the rights and remedies enumerated in Section 8.F. shall be independent of the others and shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies available to the Company and the other members of the Company Group at law or in equity. If any of the covenants contained in this Section 8, or any part of any of them, is hereafter construed or adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable, the same shall not affect the remainder of the covenant or covenants or rights or remedies which shall be given full effect without regard to the invalid portions. If any of the covenants contained in this Section 8 is held to be invalid or unenforceable because of the duration of such provision or the area covered thereby or the scope thereof, the parties agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to reduce the duration and/or area and/or scope of such provision and in its reduced form such provision shall then be enforceable. No such holding of invalidity or unenforceability in one jurisdiction shall bar or in any way affect the Company’s or any other member of the Company Group’s right to the relief provided in this Section 8 or otherwise in the courts of any other state or jurisdiction as to breaches of such covenants in such other states or jurisdictions, such covenants being, for this purpose, severable into diverse and independent covenants.

 

H.    In the event that an actual proceeding is brought in equity to enforce the provisions of Section 7 or this Section 8, the Executive shall not urge as a defense that there is an adequate remedy at law nor shall the Company or any other member of the Company Group be prevented from seeking any other remedies which may be available. For the avoidance of doubt, each member of the Company Group that is not a signatory hereto is an intended third-party beneficiary of the Executive’s covenants, representations, and obligations under Sections 7 and 8 and shall be entitled to enforce such covenants, representations, and obligations as if a party hereto.

 

9.    Agreements and Representations by the Executive. The Executive represents that (A) the Executive is under no contractual or other obligation to a previous third party based on a restrictive covenant or confidentiality or non-competition agreement (“Third Party Agreement”) that would prevent the Executive in any way from accepting or continuing employment with the Company as set forth in this Agreement, or (B) such third party has expressly waived in writing the provisions of such Third Party Agreement, or has otherwise consented in writing to the Executive’s accepting employment with the Company notwithstanding such Third Party Agreement, and the Executive has provided a copy of such waiver or consent to the Company.

 

10.    Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be given (and shall be deemed to have been duly given upon receipt) by delivery in person, by registered or certified mail (return receipt requested and with postage prepaid thereon) or by facsimile transmission to the respective parties at the following addresses (or at such other address as either party shall have previously furnished to the other in accordance with the terms of this Section):

11.    Amendment; Waiver. The terms and provisions of this Agreement may be modified or amended only by a written instrument executed by each of the parties hereto, and compliance with the terms and provisions hereof may be waived only by a written instrument executed by each party entitled to the benefits thereof. No failure or delay on the part of any party in exercising any right, power or privilege granted hereunder shall constitute a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege granted hereunder.

 

12.    Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior written or oral agreements or understandings between the parties relating thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement complements, and is in addition to (and does not supersede or replace) any other agreements between the Company and the Executive with respect to non-solicitation or the Executive’s non-use and non-disclosure of confidential information.

 

13.    Severability. In the event that any term or provision of this Agreement is found to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof shall not be in any way affected or impaired thereby, and this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained therein.

 

14.    Executive Acknowledgement. The Executive acknowledges that the Executive has read and understands this Agreement, is fully aware of its legal effect, has not acted in reliance upon any representations or promises made by the Company other than those contained in writing herein, and has entered into this Agreement freely based on the Executive’s own judgment after having had the opportunity to consult with advisors of the Executive’s choosing.

 

15.    Binding Effect; Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns (it being understood and agreed that, except as expressly provided herein, nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to confer upon any other person or entity any rights, benefits or remedies of any kind or character whatsoever). The Executive may not assign this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Company. The Company may assign this Agreement (and its rights and obligations hereunder) to any other member of the Company Group or to any successor (whether by operation of law or otherwise) to all or substantially all of its business and assets without the consent of the Executive.

 

 

17

 

 

 

16.    Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Oklahoma (except that no effect shall be given to any conflicts of law principles thereof that would require the application of the laws of another jurisdiction).

17.    Headings; Interpretation. The headings of the sections contained in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be deemed to control or affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement. Unless the context requires otherwise, all references to laws, regulations, contracts, documents, agreements and instruments refer to such laws, regulations, contracts, documents, agreements and instruments as they may be amended, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, and references to particular provisions of laws or regulations include a reference to the corresponding provisions of any succeeding law or regulation. The words “herein”, “hereof”, “hereunder” and other compounds of the word “here” shall refer to the entire Agreement, and not to any particular provision hereof. Unless the context requires otherwise, the word “or” is not exclusive. All references to “including,” “include” or “includes” shall be construed being followed by “without limitation.” Neither this Agreement nor any uncertainty or ambiguity herein shall be construed or resolved against any party hereto, whether under any rule of construction or otherwise.

18.    Withholdings; Deductions. The Company may withhold and deduct from any benefits or payments made or to be made pursuant to this Agreement (a) all federal, state, local and other taxes as may be required pursuant to any law or governmental regulation or ruling and (b) any deductions consented to in writing by the Executive.

 

19.    Section 409A; PPACA.

 

A.    Each payment under this Agreement, including each payment in a series of installment payments, is intended to be a separate payment for purposes of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-2(b), and is intended to be: (i) exempt from Section 409A of the Code, including, but not limited to, by compliance with the short-term deferral exemption as specified in Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(b)(4) and the involuntary separation pay exception within the meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii), or (ii) in compliance with Section 409A of the Code, including, but not limited to, being paid pursuant to a fixed schedule or specified date pursuant to Treas.

Specifically, the amount reimbursed or in-kind benefits provided under this Agreement during the Executive’s taxable year may not affect the amounts reimbursed or provided in any other taxable year (except that total reimbursements may be limited by a lifetime maximum under a group health plan), the reimbursement of an eligible expense shall be made on or before the last day of the Executive’s taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense was incurred, and the right to reimbursement or provision of in-kind benefit is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

 

 

18

 

 

 

C.    Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Agreement, if the payment of any severance compensation or severance benefits under Section 6 would be subject to additional taxes and interest under Section 409A because the timing of such payment is not delayed as provided in Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, and the Executive constitutes a specified employee within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, then any such payments that the Executive would otherwise be entitled to during the first six months following the Executive’s separation from service within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the Code shall be accumulated and paid on the date that is six months after the Executive’s separation from service (or if such payment date does not fall on a business day of the Company, the next following business day of the Company), or such earlier date upon which such amount can be paid under Section 409A without being subject to such additional taxes and interest.

 

D.    Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the coverage under Sections 6.B.(2), or 6.C. would result in the imposition of penalties on the Company pursuant to Section 4980D of the Code or any other penalty or liability pursuant to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 and the related regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder (“PPACA”), the parties agree to reform Section 6.B.(2) or 6.C. (as applicable) in a manner as is necessary to comply with PPACA while still providing economically equivalent benefits.

 

20.    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.
