(e) The increase in any amount secured by any Lien by virtue of the accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the payment of interest or a dividend in the form of additional Indebtedness, amortization of original issue discount and/or any increase in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of any fluctuation in the exchange rate of any applicable currency will not be deemed to be the granting of a Lien for purposes of Section 6.02.

(f) With respect to any pro forma calculation that is required to be made in connection with any acquisition or similar Investment in respect of which financial statements for the applicable target are not available for the same Test Period for which financial statements of the Issuer are available, the Issuer shall make the relevant calculation on the basis of the relevant available financial statements (even if for differing periods) or such other commercially reasonable basis as the Issuer may elect.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Note or any fee payable by the Issuer hereunder is not, in each case, paid or reimbursed when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, the relevant overdue amount shall bear interest, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal or interest of any Note, 2.00% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Note, as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2.00% plus the rate applicable to the Notes; provided that no amount shall accrue pursuant to this Section 2.15(d) on any overdue amount or other amount payable to a Defaulting Purchaser so long as such Purchaser is a Defaulting Purchaser.

(e) Accrued interest on each Note shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Note and on the Maturity Date applicable to such Note; provided that (A) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section shall be payable on demand and (B) in the event of any repayment, redemption or conversion (if applicable) of any Note, accrued interest on the principal amount repaid, redeemed or converted shall be payable on the date of such repayment, redemption or conversion. Without duplication of the preceding sentence, interest on each Note shall be payable in kind and automatically added to the outstanding principal balance of each Note on each Interest Payment Date without further action by the Issuer.

(f) [Reserved].

(g) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days. Interest shall accrue on each Note for the day on which the Note is issued and shall not accrue on a Note, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Note or such portion is paid, redeemed or converted; provided that any Note that is repaid on the same day on which it is issued shall bear interest for one day.

Section 2.16. [Reserved].

Section 2.17. [Reserved].

Section 2.18. Increased Costs.

(a) If any Change in Law:

(i) [Reserved];

(ii) subjects any Credit Party to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes indemnifiable under Section 2.20 and (B) Excluded Taxes) on or with respect to its loans, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(iii) imposes on any Credit Party any other condition (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the relevant Purchaser of making or maintaining any Note or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Purchaser hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) in respect of any Note in an amount deemed by such Purchaser to be material, then, within 30 days after the Issuer’s receipt of the certificate contemplated by paragraph (c) of this Section, the Issuer will pay to such Purchaser such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Purchaser for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered; provided that the Issuer shall not be liable for such compensation if (x) the relevant Change in Law occurs on a date prior to the date such Purchaser becomes a party hereto, (y) such Purchaser invokes Section 2.23 or (z) in the case of requests for reimbursement under clause (iii) above resulting from a market disruption, (A) the relevant circumstances do not generally affect the banking market or (B) the applicable request has not been made by Purchasers constituting Required Purchasers.

(b) If any Purchaser determines that any Change in Law regarding liquidity or capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Purchaser’s capital or on the capital of such Purchaser’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Notes purchased by such Purchaser to a level below that which such Purchaser or such Purchaser’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law other than due to Taxes (taking into consideration such Purchaser’s policies and the policies of such Purchaser’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then within 30 days of receipt by the Issuer of the certificate contemplated by paragraph (c) of this Section, the Issuer will pay to such Purchaser such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Purchaser or such Purchaser’s holding company for any such reduction suffered; provided that, subject to the last sentence of the definition of “Change of Law”, the Issuer shall not be liable for such compensation if the relevant Change in Law occurs on a date prior to the date such Purchaser becomes a party hereto.

(c) Any Purchaser requesting compensation under this Section 2.18 shall be required to deliver a certificate to the Issuer that (i) sets forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Purchaser or the holding company thereof, as applicable, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, (ii) sets forth, in reasonable detail, the manner in which such amount or amounts were determined, and (iii) certifies that such Purchaser is generally charging such amounts to similarly situated borrowers which certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Purchaser to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Purchaser’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Issuer shall not be required to compensate a Purchaser pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Purchaser notifies the Issuer of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Purchaser’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided, further, that if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

Section 2.19. [Reserved].

Section 2.20. Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Note Party under any Note Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Requirements of Law. If any applicable Requirement of Law requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment, then (i) if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax and/or Other Tax, the amount payable by the applicable Note Party shall be increased as necessary so that after all required deductions or withholdings have been made (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.20) each Purchaser (or, in the case of any payment made to the Purchaser Representative for its own account, the Purchaser Representative) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made, (ii) the applicable withholding agent shall make such deduction or withholding and (iii) the applicable withholding agent shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law.

(b) In addition, the Note Parties shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law.

(c) The Issuer shall indemnify the Purchaser Representative and each Purchaser within 30 days after receipt of the certificate described in the succeeding sentence, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes payable or paid by the Purchaser Representative or such Purchaser, as applicable (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.17), other than any penalties determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction (or documented in any settlement agreement) to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Purchaser Representative or such Purchaser, and, in each case, any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority; provided that if the Issuer reasonably believes that such Taxes were not correctly or legally asserted, the Purchaser Representative or such Purchaser, as applicable, will use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Issuer to obtain a refund of such Taxes (which shall be repaid to the Issuer in accordance with Section 2.20(g)) so long as such efforts would not, in the sole determination of the Purchaser Representative or such Purchaser, result in any additional out-of-pocket costs or expenses not reimbursed by such Note Party or be otherwise materially disadvantageous to the Purchaser Representative or such Purchaser, as applicable. In connection with any request for reimbursement under this Section 2.20(c), the relevant Purchaser or the Purchaser Representative, as applicable, shall deliver a certificate to the Issuer setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis and calculation of the amount of the relevant payment or liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.20, the Issuer shall not be required to indemnify the Purchaser Representative or any Purchaser pursuant to this Section 2.20 for any amount to the extent the Purchaser Representative or such Purchaser fails to notify the Issuer of such possible indemnification claim within 180 days after the Purchaser Representative or such Purchaser receives written notice from the applicable taxing authority of the specific tax assessment giving rise to such indemnification claim.

(d) In the event that any Taxes, other than Taxes which are Indemnified Taxes and/or Other Taxes, are required to be deducted or withheld under Section 2.20(a) with respect to the Notes, the Issuer and its affiliates shall be entitled to satisfy such withholding obligations by any reasonable means including, without limitation: (i) withholding Common Stock deliverable to an applicable Purchaser upon conversion of the Notes (if applicable) or (ii) withholding any amount payable to an applicable Purchaser with respect to its Common Stock (whether delivered upon conversion of the Notes (if applicable) or otherwise owned), its interests in the First Lien Facility, its Series A Preferred Shares, or its warrants or other instruments issued by the Issuer or any affiliate thereof; provided, however, that upon request by an applicable Purchaser, the Issuer shall permit such Purchaser to fund such withholding in cash.

(e) As soon as practicable after any payment of any Taxes pursuant to this Section 2.20 by any Note Party to a Governmental Authority, the Issuer shall deliver to the Purchaser Representative the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued, if any, by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment that is reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser Representative.

(f) Status of Purchasers.

(i) Any Purchaser that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of any withholding Tax with respect to any payments made under any Note Document shall deliver to the Issuer and the Purchaser Representative, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Issuer or the Purchaser Representative, such properly completed and executed documentation as the Issuer or the Purchaser Representative may reasonably request to permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Purchaser, if reasonably requested by the Issuer or the Purchaser Representative, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law or reasonably requested by the Issuer or the Purchaser Representative as will enable the Issuer or the Purchaser Representative to determine whether or not such Purchaser is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Each Purchaser hereby authorizes the Purchaser Representative to deliver to the Issuer and to any successor Purchaser Representative any documentation provided to the Purchaser Representative pursuant to this Section 2.20(f). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding three sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in paragraphs (f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) of this Section 2.20) shall not be required if in the Purchaser’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Purchaser to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Purchaser.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

(A) each U.S. Purchaser shall deliver to the Issuer and the Purchaser Representative on or prior to the date on which such U.S. Purchaser becomes a Purchaser under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Issuer or the Purchaser Representative, two copies of executed IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Purchaser is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding;

(B) each Foreign Purchaser shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Issuer and the Purchaser Representative on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Purchaser becomes a Purchaser under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Issuer or the Purchaser Representative), whichever of the following is applicable:

(1) in the case of any Foreign Purchaser claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the U.S. is a party, two copies of executed IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing any available exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax;

(2) two copies of executed IRS Form W-8ECI (or any successor forms);

(3) in the case of any Foreign Purchaser claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, (x) two copies of an executed certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit O-1 to the effect that such Foreign Purchaser is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Issuer within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, and that no payments payable to such Purchaser are effectively connected with the conduct of a U.S. trade or business (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) two copies of executed IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or any successor forms); or

(4) to the extent any Foreign Purchaser is not the beneficial owner (e.g., where the Foreign Purchaser is a partnership or participating Purchaser), two copies of executed IRS Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms), accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit O-2, Exhibit O-3 or Exhibit O-4, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if such Foreign Purchaser is a partnership (and not a participating Purchaser) and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Purchaser are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Purchaser may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit O-4 on behalf of each such direct or indirect partner(s);

(C) each Foreign Purchaser shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Issuer and the Purchaser Representative on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Purchaser becomes a Purchaser under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Issuer or the Purchaser Representative), two copies of any other executed form prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law to permit the Issuer or the Purchaser Representative to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D) if a payment made to any Purchaser under any Note Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Purchaser were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Purchaser shall deliver to the Issuer and the Purchaser Representative at the time or times prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Issuer or the Purchaser Representative such documentation as is prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and may be necessary for the Issuer and the Purchaser Representative to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine whether such Purchaser has complied with such Purchaser’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment.

For the avoidance of doubt, if a Purchaser is an entity disregarded from its owner for U.S. federal income tax purposes, references to the foregoing documentation are intended to refer to documentation with respect to such Purchaser’s owner and, as applicable, such Purchaser. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Purchaser agrees that if any documentation (including any specific documentation required above in this Section 2.20(f)) it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall deliver to the Issuer and the Purchaser Representative updated or other appropriate documentation (including any new documentation reasonably requested by the Issuer or the Purchaser Representative) or promptly notify the Issuer and the Purchaser Representative in writing of its legal ineligibility to do so.

(g) If the Purchaser Representative or any Purchaser determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund (whether received in cash or applied as a credit against any cash taxes payable) of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Issuer or with respect to which the Issuer has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.20, it shall pay over such refund to the Issuer (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Issuer under this Section 2.20 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Purchaser Representative or such Purchaser (including any Taxes imposed with respect to such refund), and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Issuer, upon the request of the Purchaser Representative or such Purchaser, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Note Party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Purchaser Representative or such Purchaser in the event the Purchaser Representative or such Purchaser is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the Purchaser Representative or any Purchaser be required to pay any amount to the Issuer pursuant to this paragraph (g) to the extent that the payment thereof would place the Purchaser Representative or such Purchaser in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the position that the Purchaser Representative or such Purchaser would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This Section 2.20 shall not be construed to require the Purchaser Representative or any Purchaser to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the relevant Note Party or any other Person.

(h) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.20 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Purchaser Representative or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, any Purchaser, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Note Document.

(i) Definition of “Applicable Law”. For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Applicable Law” includes FATCA.

(j) Certain Documentation. On or before the date the Purchaser Representative becomes a party to this Agreement, the Purchaser Representative shall deliver to Issuer whichever of the following is applicable: (i) if the Purchaser Representative is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, two executed original copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Purchaser Representative is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding or (ii) if the Purchaser Representative is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, (A) with respect to payments received for its own account, two executed original copies of IRS Form W-8ECI and (B) with respect to payments received on account of any Purchaser, two executed original copies of IRS Form W-8IMY (together with all required accompanying documentation) certifying that the Purchaser Representative is a U.S. branch and may be treated as a United States person for purposes of applicable U.S. federal withholding Tax. At any time thereafter, the Purchaser Representative shall provide updated documentation previously provided (or a successor form thereto) when any documentation previously delivered has expired or become obsolete or invalid or otherwise upon the reasonable request of the Issuer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.20(j), the Purchaser Representative shall not be required to provide any documentation that the Purchaser Representative is not legally eligible to deliver as a result of a Change in Law after the Closing Date.

(k) Tax Treatment. The Issuer, the Purchaser Representative and the Purchasers agree that, for U.S. federal (and applicable state and local) income tax purposes, each Note (other than any Second Amendment Delayed Draw Note) and the Stapled Series B Preferred Stock shall (i) be treated as a single integrated instrument and (ii) such single integrated instrument shall be treated as indebtedness of the Issuer, and none of the Issuer, the Purchaser Representative or any Purchaser shall file any tax return or take any position contrary or inconsistent with such treatment described in clause (i) or (ii) unless otherwise required by a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any analogous provision of applicable state or local income tax law).

Section 2.21. Payments Generally; Allocation of Proceeds; Sharing of Payments.

(a) Unless otherwise specified, including in Section 2.15(e) and Article 10 hereof, the Issuer shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest or fees, or of amounts payable under Sections 2.18 or 2.22, or otherwise) prior to 12:00 p.m. on the date (or such other time as the Purchaser Representative reasonably accepts) when due, in immediately available funds (or such other form of consideration as the relevant recipient may agree), without set-off (except as otherwise provided in Section 2.20) or counterclaim. Any amount received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Purchaser Representative, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. Each such payment shall be made to the Purchaser Representative to the applicable account designated by the Purchaser Representative to the Issuer, except that any payment made pursuant to Sections 2.18, 2.22 or 9.03 shall be made directly to the Person or Persons entitled thereto. The Purchaser Representative shall distribute any such payment received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. Except as provided in Sections 2.22(b), 2.23 and Article 10 hereof, each Issuance, each payment (or redemption) of principal of any Issuance and each payment of interest in respect of the Notes of a given Class shall be allocated pro rata among the Purchasers in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages of the applicable Class. Each Purchaser agrees that in computing such Purchaser’s portion of any Issuance to be made hereunder, the Purchaser Representative may round each Purchaser’s percentage of such Issuance to the next higher or lower whole Dollar amount. Except as provided in Section 2.15(a), all payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars or such other form of consideration as the relevant recipient may agree. Any remittance required to be made by the Purchaser Representative hereunder shall be deemed to have been made by the time required if the Purchaser Representative shall, at or before such time, have taken the necessary steps to make such payment in accordance with the regulations or operating procedures of the clearing or settlement system used by the Purchaser Representative to make such payment.

(b) (I) Subject to the Second Lien Intercreditor and Subordination Agreement, after any of the Obligations have been accelerated hereunder pursuant to Section 7.01 any amounts received on account of the Obligations (including all proceeds of Collateral) in accordance with the terms hereof (which amounts so received by the Purchaser Representative shall satisfy the Issuer’s obligations with respect to such amounts notwithstanding that the order of application set forth below may differ from the application required with respect to such payment by the relevant section of this Agreement or any other Note Document that gives rise to the payment of such amount) shall be applied by the Purchaser Representative in the following order:

(i) first, to the payment of all costs and expenses then due incurred by the Purchaser Representative in connection with any collection, sale or realization on Collateral or otherwise in connection with this Agreement, any other Note Document or any of the Obligations, including all court costs and the fees and expenses of agents and legal counsel, the repayment of all advances made by the Purchaser Representative hereunder or under any other Note Document on behalf of any Note Party and any other costs or expenses incurred in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or under any other Note Document,

(ii) second, on a pro rata basis, to pay any fees, indemnities or expense reimbursements then due to the Purchaser Representative from the Issuer constituting Obligations,

(iii) third, on a pro rata basis, to pay interest due and payable in respect of any Note,

(iv) fourth, on a pro rata basis, to redeem principal on the Notes among the Secured Parties,

(v) fifth, on a pro rata basis, to the payment of any other Secured Obligation due to the Purchaser Representative, any Purchaser or any other Secured Party by the Issuer,

(vi) sixth, as provided in any applicable Intercreditor Agreement, and

(vii) seventh, to, or at the direction of, the Issuer or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

(c) If any Purchaser obtains payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off or otherwise) in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Notes of any Class or resulting in such Purchaser receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Notes of such Class and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Purchaser with Notes of such Class, then the Purchaser receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for Cash at face value) participations in the Notes of such Class at such time outstanding to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Purchasers of such Class ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Notes of such Class; provided that (i) if any such participation is purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participation shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to (x) any payment made by the Issuer pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement, (y) any payment obtained by any Purchaser as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Note to any permitted assignee or participant, including any payment made or deemed made in connection with Sections 2.22(b) and/or Section 9.05 or (z) any transaction consummated in accordance with Article 10 hereof. The Issuer consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Requirements of Law, that any Purchaser acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Issuer rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Purchaser were a direct creditor of the Issuer in the amount of such participation. Upon notification of such participations or recovery of payments, the Purchaser Representative will forward a notice from the applicable Purchaser to the other Purchasers of any such purchases or repayments; provided, that (A) such Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Purchaser shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Purchaser Representative and the other Purchasers shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Purchaser in connection with such Purchaser’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. For purposes of subclause (c) of the definition of “Excluded Taxes”, any Purchaser that acquires a participation pursuant to this Section 2.21(c) shall be treated as having acquired such participation on the earlier date(s) on which such Purchaser acquired the applicable interest(s) in the Commitment(s) and/or Note(s) to which such participation relates.

Section 2.22. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Purchasers.

(a) If any Purchaser requests compensation under Section 2.18, or any Note Party is required to pay any additional amount to or indemnify any Purchaser or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.20, then such Purchaser shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Notes hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Purchaser, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.18 or 2.20, as applicable, in the future or mitigate the impact of Section 2.23, as the case may be, and (ii) would not subject such Purchaser to any material unreimbursed out-of-pocket cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Purchaser in any material respect. The Issuer hereby agrees to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by any Purchaser in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) If (i) any Purchaser requests compensation under Section 2.18, (ii) any Note Party is required to pay any additional amount to or indemnify any Purchaser or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.20, (iii) any Purchaser is a Defaulting Purchaser or (iv) in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of “each Purchaser”, “each Additional Purchaser”, or “each Purchaser directly affected thereby” (or any other Class or group of Purchasers other than the Required Purchasers) with respect to which Required Purchaser or Required Additional Purchaser consent (or the consent of Purchasers holding loans or commitments of such Class or lesser group representing more than 50% of the sum of the total loans and unused commitments of such Class or lesser group at such time) has been obtained, as applicable, any Purchaser is a non-consenting Purchaser, then the Issuer may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Purchaser and the Purchaser Representative, (x) terminate the applicable Commitments of such Purchaser, and repay all Obligations of the Issuer owing to such Purchaser relating to the applicable Notes held by such Purchaser as of such termination date or (y) replace such Purchaser by requiring such Purchaser to assign and delegate (and such Purchaser shall be obligated to assign and delegate), without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.05), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Eligible Transferee that assumes such obligations (which Eligible Transferee may be another Purchaser, if any Purchaser accepts such assignment); provided that (A) such Purchaser has received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of its Notes of such Class of Notes and/or Commitments, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it under any Note Document with respect to such Class of Notes and/or Commitments, (B) in the case of any assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.18 or any payment required to be made pursuant to Section 2.20, such assignment would result in a reduction in such compensation or payment and (C) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Requirements of Law. No Purchaser (other than a Defaulting Purchaser) shall be required to make any such assignment and delegation, and the Issuer may not repay the Obligations of such Purchaser or terminate its Commitments, in each case, if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Purchaser or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Issuer to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Each Purchaser agrees that if it is replaced pursuant to this Section 2.22, it shall execute and deliver to the Purchaser Representative a Transfer Agreement to evidence such sale and purchase and deliver to the Purchaser Representative any Note subject to such Transfer Agreement (provided that the failure of any Purchaser replaced pursuant to this Section 2.22 to execute a Transfer Agreement or deliver any such Note shall not render such sale and purchase (and the corresponding assignment) invalid), such assignment shall be recorded in the Register and any such Note shall be deemed cancelled. If such Purchaser fails to execute such Transfer Agreement, it shall be deemed to have so executed such Transfer Agreement and the Purchaser Representative shall have full authority (as directed by the Required Purchasers) to effect such deemed transfer and record it in the Register.

Section 2.23. [Reserved].

Section 2.24. Defaulting Purchasers. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Person becomes a Defaulting Purchaser, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Person is a Defaulting Purchaser:

(a) The Commitments of such Defaulting Purchaser shall not be included in determining whether all Purchasers, each affected Purchaser, the Required Purchasers, the Required Additional Purchasers, the Required Delayed Draw Purchasers or such other number of Purchasers as may be required hereby or under any other Note Document have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any waiver, amendment or modification pursuant to Section 9.02); provided that any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Purchasers or each affected Purchaser which affects such Defaulting Purchasers disproportionately and adversely relative to other affected Purchasers shall require the consent of such Defaulting Purchaser.

(b) Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Purchaser Representative for the account of any Defaulting Purchaser (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 2.18, Section 2.20, Section 2.21, Section 2.22, Article 7, Section 9.05 or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Purchaser Representative by such Defaulting Purchaser pursuant to Section 9.09), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Required Purchasers and, where relevant, the Issuer as follows: first, to the payment of any amount owing by such Defaulting Purchaser to the Purchaser Representative hereunder; second, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, as the Issuer may request, to the purchase of any Note in respect of which such Defaulting Purchaser has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement; third, as the Required Purchasers or the Issuer may elect, to be held in a deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Purchaser to purchase Notes under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amount owing to the non-Defaulting Purchasers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any non-Defaulting Purchaser against such Defaulting Purchaser as a result of such Defaulting Purchaser’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, to the payment of any amount owing to the Issuer as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Issuer against such Defaulting Purchaser as a result of such Defaulting Purchaser’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to such Defaulting Purchaser or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Note in respect of which such Defaulting Purchaser has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Note was sold at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 or Section 4.03, as applicable, were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Notes of all non-Defaulting Purchasers on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Note of such Defaulting Purchaser. Any payment, prepayment or other amount paid or payable to any Defaulting Purchaser that is applied (or held) to pay any amount owed by any Defaulting Purchaser shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Purchaser, and each Purchaser irrevocably consents hereto.

In the event that the Required Purchasers and the Issuer agree that any Defaulting Purchaser has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Purchaser to be a Defaulting Purchaser, then the Applicable Percentage of the relevant Purchasers shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Purchaser’s Commitment, and on such date such Purchaser shall purchase at par such of the Notes of the applicable Class of the other Purchasers as the Required Purchasers and the Issuer determine as necessary in order for such Purchaser to hold such Notes in accordance with its Applicable Percentage of the applicable Class. Notwithstanding the fact that any Defaulting Purchaser has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Purchaser to be a Defaulting Purchaser, (x) no adjustment will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Issuer while such Purchaser was a Defaulting Purchaser and (y) except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Purchaser to Purchaser will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Purchaser’s having been a Defaulting Purchaser.

Section 2.25. Additional Notes.

(a) The Issuer may, at any time, on one or more occasions issue one or more new Classes of Additional Notes by requesting Additional Note Commitments to purchase such Additional Notes in an aggregate outstanding principal amount not to exceed the Incremental Cap; provided that:

(iii) the issuance of such Additional Notes shall have been approved by the Required Purchasers (calculated without giving effect to the issuance of such Additional Notes), acting in their sole discretion,

(xi) [reserved],

To the extent that the Purchaser Representative (or any Affiliate thereof) and each of its Related Parties is not reimbursed and indemnified by the Issuer in accordance with and to the extent required by Section 9.03 hereof, the Purchasers will reimburse and indemnify the Purchaser Representative (and any Affiliate thereof) and each of its Related Parties in proportion to their respective Applicable Percentages (determined as if there were no Defaulting Purchasers) for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements of whatsoever kind or nature which may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by the Purchaser Representative (or any Affiliate thereof) in performing its duties hereunder or under any other Note Document or in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Note Document; provided that no Purchaser shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Purchaser Representative’s (or such Affiliate’s) or such Related Party’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Note Documents and for the avoidance of doubt, any restriction set forth in any Intercreditor Agreement with respect to the Purchaser Representative’s ability to seek reimbursement of its fees, expenses and indemnities from the Issuer shall not affect each Purchaser’s requirement to reimburse and indemnify the Purchaser Representative (and any Affiliate thereof) and each of its Related Parties pursuant to this Section 8.11 and in such event the Purchaser Representative shall not be required to make demand on the Issuer prior to seeking reimbursement and indemnification from the Purchasers pursuant to this Section 8.11

Section 8.12. Withholding Taxes. To the extent required by any applicable Requirement of Law (as determined in good faith by the Purchaser Representative), the Purchaser Representative may withhold from any payment to any Purchaser under any Note Document an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. Without limiting or expanding the provisions of Section 2.20, each Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser Representative against, and shall make payable in respect thereof within ten days after demand therefor, any and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Purchaser Representative) incurred by or asserted against the Purchaser Representative by the IRS or any other Governmental Authority as a result of the failure of the Purchaser Representative to properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of such Purchaser for any reason (including because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Purchaser failed to notify the Purchaser Representative of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding Tax ineffective). A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Purchaser by the Purchaser Representative shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Purchaser hereby authorizes the Purchaser Representative to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Purchaser under this Agreement or any other Note Document against any amount due the Purchaser Representative under this paragraph. The agreements in this paragraph shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Purchaser Representative or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, any Purchaser, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Note Document.

126

Section 8.13. Purchaser Representative May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Note Party, the Purchaser Representative (irrespective of whether the principal of any Notes shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Purchaser Representative shall have made any demand on the Note Parties) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes 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 Secured Parties and the Purchaser Representative (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Secured Parties and the Purchaser Representative and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Secured Parties and the Purchaser Representative under Sections 2.14 and 9.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(b) 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 Secured Party to make such payments to the Purchaser Representative and, in the event that the Purchaser Representative shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Secured Parties, to pay to the Purchaser Representative any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Purchaser Representative and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Purchaser Representative under Sections 2.14 and 9.03

Section 8.14. Erroneous Payments.

(a) If the Purchaser Representative notifies a Purchaser or Secured Party, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Purchaser or Secured Party (any such Purchaser, Secured Party or other recipient, a “Payment Recipient”) that the Purchaser Representative has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Payment Recipient from the Purchaser Representative or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Purchaser, Secured Party or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”), the Purchaser Representative shall, within thirty (30) calendar days of the date of the payment of such Erroneous Payment to the Payment Recipient, notify the Payment Recipient and demand the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Purchaser Representative and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Purchaser Representative, and such Purchaser or Secured Party shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter, return to the Purchaser Representative the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Purchaser Representative in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Purchaser Representative in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Purchaser Representative to any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. If a Payment Recipient receives any payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise and does not receive a corresponding payment notice or payment advice from the Purchaser Representative, such payment, prepayment or repayment shall be presumed to be in error absent written confirmation from the Purchaser Representative to the contrary.

127

(b) Each Purchaser or Secured Party hereby authorizes the Purchaser Representative to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Purchaser or Secured Party under any Note Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Purchaser Representative to such Purchaser or Secured Party from any source, against any amount due to the Purchaser Representative under immediately preceding clause (a) or under the indemnification provisions of this Article 8.

(c) For so long as an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) has not been returned by any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”) to the Purchaser Representative after demand therefor in accordance with clause (a) above, (i) the Purchaser Representative may elect, in its sole discretion upon written notice to the relevant Purchaser or Secured Party, that all rights and claims of such Purchaser or Secured Party with respect to the Notes or other Obligations owed to such Person up to the amount of the corresponding Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency in respect of such Erroneous Payment (the “Corresponding Amount”) shall immediately vest in the Purchaser Representative upon such election; after such election, with respect to Notes, the Purchaser Representative (x) may reflect its ownership interest in the relevant Notes in a principal amount equal to the Corresponding Amount in the Register, and (y) upon five business days’ written notice to such Purchaser may sell such Note (or portion thereof) to an Eligible Transferee in accordance with Section 9.05 in respect of the Corresponding Amount, and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by such Purchaser shall be reduced by the net proceeds of the sale of such Note (or portion thereof), and the Purchaser Representative shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against such Purchaser (and/or against any Payment Recipient that receives funds on its behalf), and (ii) each party hereto agrees that, except to the extent that the Purchaser Representative has sold such Notes, and irrespective of whether the Purchaser Representative may be equitably subrogated, the Purchaser Representative shall be contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of such Purchaser or Secured Party with respect to the relevant Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (determined after any reduction as a result of the vesting described in clause (i)) (it being understood and agreed that aggregate Obligations of the Note Parties shall not be increased as a result of the application of this clause (ii)). For the avoidance of doubt, no vesting or sale pursuant to this clause (c) will reduce the Commitments of any Purchaser and such Commitments shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(d) The parties hereto agree that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Issuer or any other Note Party, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Purchaser Representative from the Issuer or any other Note Party for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.

(e) No Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Purchaser Representative for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

(f) Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 8.14 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Purchaser Representative, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Purchaser, and the occurrence of the Termination Date.

128

(g) This Section 8.14 shall not apply to the disbursement of any proceeds of a Note to or at the express direction of the Issuer unless otherwise expressly agreed to in writing by the Issuer.

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Note Document, the Issuer and the Note Parties shall have no obligations or liabilities for any actions, consequences or remediation (including the repayment of any amounts) contemplated by this Section 8.14; provided that under no circumstances shall this Section 8.14(h) affect the Issuer’s or any Note Parties’ obligations or liabilities with respect to any Obligations that remain outstanding.

Section 8.15. Representations and Warranties of the Purchasers.

Each Purchaser, severally, but not jointly or jointly and severally, represents and warrants to Issuer as to matters affecting itself that:

(a) Securities Law Compliance. Such Purchaser (a) is an “accredited investor”, as that term is defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act and (b) has such knowledge, skill, sophistication and experience in business and financial matters, based on actual participation, that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the purchase and sale of the securities hereunder (including the Notes, Conversion Shares and the shares of Series B Preferred Stock) and the suitability thereof for such Purchaser. The securities to be acquired by such Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement are being or will be acquired for its own account and with no intention of distributing or reselling such securities (within the meaning of the Securities Act) or any part thereof in any transaction that would be in violation of the securities laws of the United States of America, or any state, without prejudice, however, to its right at all times to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the securities under an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, or under an exemption from such registration available under the Securities Act, and subject, nevertheless, to the disposition of its property being at all times within its control. If such Purchaser should in the future decide to dispose of any of the securities, such Purchaser understands and agrees that it may do so only in compliance with the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, as then in effect. Such Purchaser agrees to the entry of a book entry legend to such effect in respect of its securities on any ledger or other register maintained by the Issuer.

(b) Broker’s, Finder’s or Similar Fees. Such Purchaser did not employ any broker or finder in connection with the transactions contemplated in this Agreement.

(c) Source of Funds. Each Purchaser severally represents that at least one of the following statements is an accurate representation as to each source of funds (a “Source”) to be used by such Purchaser to pay the purchase price of the Notes to be purchased by such Purchaser hereunder:

(i) the Source is an “insurance company general account” (as the term is defined in the United States Department of Labor’s Prohibited Transaction Exemption (“PTE”) 95-60) in respect of which the reserves and liabilities (as defined by the annual statement for life insurance companies approved by the NAIC (the “NAIC Annual Statement”)) for the general account contract(s) held by or on behalf of any employee benefit plan together with the amount of the reserves and liabilities for the general account contract(s) held by or on behalf of any other employee benefit plans maintained by the same employer (or affiliate thereof as defined in PTE 95-60) or by the same employee organization in the general account do not exceed 10% of the total reserves and liabilities of the general account (exclusive of separate account liabilities) plus surplus as set forth in the NAIC Annual Statement filed with such Purchaser’s state of domicile; or

(ii) the Source is a separate account that is maintained solely in connection with such Purchaser’s fixed contractual obligations under which the amounts payable, or credited, to any employee benefit plan (or its related trust) that has any interest in such separate account (or to any participant or beneficiary of such plan (including any annuitant)) are not affected in any manner by the investment performance of the separate account; or

129

(iii) the Source is either (i) an insurance company pooled separate account, within the meaning of PTE 90-1 or (ii) a bank collective investment fund, within the meaning of the PTE 91-38 and, except as disclosed by such Purchaser to the Issuer in writing pursuant to this clause (c), no employee benefit plan or group of plans maintained by the same employer or employee organization beneficially owns more than 10% of all assets allocated to such pooled separate account or collective investment fund; or

(iv) the Source constitutes assets of an “investment fund” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14 (the “QPAM Exemption”)) managed by a “qualified professional asset manager” or “QPAM” (within the meaning of Part VI of the QPAM Exemption), no employee benefit plan’s assets that are managed by the QPAM in such investment fund, when combined with the assets of all other employee benefit plans established or maintained by the same employer or by an affiliate (within the meaning of Part VI(c)(1) of the QPAM Exemption) of such employer or by the same employee organization and managed by such QPAM, represent more than 20% of the total client assets managed by such QPAM, the conditions of Part I(c) and (g) of the QPAM Exemption are satisfied, neither the QPAM nor a person controlling or controlled by the QPAM maintains an ownership interest in the Issuer that would cause the QPAM and the Issuer to be “related” within the meaning of Part VI(h) of the QPAM Exemption and (i) the identity of such QPAM and (ii) the names of any employee benefit plans whose assets in the investment fund, when combined with the assets of all other employee benefit plans established or maintained by the same employer or by an affiliate (within the meaning of Part VI(c)(1) of the QPAM Exemption) of such employer or by the same employee organization, represent 10% or more of the assets of such investment fund, have been disclosed to the Issuer in writing pursuant to this clause (d); or

(v) the Source constitutes assets of a “plan(s)” (within the meaning of Part IV(h) of PTE 96-23 (the “INHAM Exemption”)) managed by an “in-house asset manager” or “INHAM” (within the meaning of Part IV(a) of the INHAM Exemption), the conditions of Part I(a), (g) and (h) of the INHAM Exemption are satisfied, neither the INHAM nor a person controlling or controlled by the INHAM (applying the definition of “control” in Part IV(d)(3) of the INHAM Exemption) owns a 10% or more interest in the Issuer and (i) the identity of such INHAM and (ii) the name(s) of the employee benefit plan(s) whose assets constitute the Source have been disclosed to the Issuer in writing pursuant to this clause (e); or

(vi) the Source is a governmental plan; or

(vii) the Source is one or more employee benefit plans, or a separate account or trust fund comprised of one or more employee benefit plans, each of which has been identified to the Issuer in writing pursuant to this clause (g); or

(viii) the Source does not include assets of any employee benefit plan, other than a plan exempt from the coverage of ERISA.

(d) Organization and Qualification. Such Purchaser is duly organized and validly existing and in good standing (or the equivalent thereof) under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is formed, and has the requisite power and authority to own, operate or lease the properties and assets owned, operated or leased by it and to conduct its business as presently conducted. Such Purchaser is duly qualified as a foreign entity to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which its ownership of property or the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary.

130

(e) Authorization; Validity; Enforcement. Such Purchaser has the requisite power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement and the applicable Note Documents and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the applicable Note Documents by such Purchaser and the consummation by such Purchaser of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby have been, or when executed will be, duly authorized by such Purchaser. This Agreement and the applicable Note Documents have been (or will be, upon execution) duly executed and delivered by such Purchaser and shall constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of such Purchaser, enforceable against such Purchaser in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by customary bankruptcy and equitable exceptions.

(f) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance by such Purchaser of this Agreement and the applicable Note Documents do not and will not (i) violate or conflict with the organization certificate, bylaws or similar constitutive documents of such Purchaser; (ii) result in a breach, violation or default of any Law or Order applicable to such Purchaser; or (iii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) in any respect under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which such Purchaser is a party.

As used in this Section 8.15(c), the terms “employee benefit plan,” “governmental plan,” and “separate account” shall have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in Section 3 of ERISA. To the extent any Purchaser is relying on clause (viii) of this Section 8.15(c), such Purchaser shall not be in breach of this representation solely by reason of the fact the one or more investors in such Purchaser is, or is investing the assets of, an employee benefit plan subject to ERISA, as long as such Purchaser’s assets are not, and are not deemed to be, “plan assets” for purposes of ERISA.

(d) The Issuer hereby acknowledges that (a) the Purchaser Representative will make available to the Purchasers materials and/or information provided by, or on behalf of, the Issuer hereunder (collectively, the “Issuer Materials”) by posting the Issuer Materials on the Platform and (b) certain of the Purchasers may be “public-side” Purchasers (i.e., Purchasers that do not wish to receive material nonpublic information within the meaning of the United States federal securities laws with respect to the Issuer or their respective securities) (each, a “Public Purchaser”). The Issuer hereby agrees that (i) all Issuer Materials that are to be made available to Public Purchasers shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC”, (ii) by marking Issuer Materials “PUBLIC,” the Issuer shall be deemed to have authorized the Purchaser Representative and the Purchasers to treat such Issuer Materials as information of a type that would (A) customarily be made publicly available, as determined in good faith by the Issuer, if the Issuer were to become public reporting companies or (B) would not be material with respect to the Issuer, their respective subsidiaries, any of their respective securities or the Transactions as determined in good faith by the Issuer for purposes of the United States federal securities laws and (iii) the Purchaser Representative shall be required to treat Issuer Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not marked as “Public Investor.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following Issuer Materials shall be deemed to be marked “PUBLIC,” unless the Issuer notifies the Purchaser Representative promptly that any such document contains material nonpublic information (it being understood that the Issuer shall have a reasonable opportunity to review the same prior to distribution and comply with SEC or other applicable disclosure obligations): (1) the Note Documents, (2) any amendment to any Note Document and (3) any information delivered pursuant to Sections 5.01(a) or (b).

Each Public Purchaser agrees to cause at least one individual at or on behalf of such Public Purchaser to at all times have selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Purchaser or its delegate, in accordance with such Public Purchaser’s compliance procedures and applicable law, including United States federal and state securities laws, to make reference to communications that are not made available through the “Public Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain material non-public information with respect to the Issuer or its securities for purposes of United States federal or state securities laws.

THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” NEITHER THE PURCHASER REPRESENTATIVE NOR ANY OF ITS RELATED PARTIES WARRANTS THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS ON, OR THE ADEQUACY OF, THE PLATFORM, AND EACH EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN ANY SUCH COMMUNICATION. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NONINFRINGEMENT OF THIRD-PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS IS MADE BY THE PURCHASER REPRESENTATIVE OR ANY OF ITS RELATED PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY PARTY HERETO OR ANY OF ITS RELATED PARTIES HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY OTHER PARTY HERETO OR ANY OTHER PERSON FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER OR NOT BASED ON STRICT LIABILITY AND INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF ANY NOTE PARTY’S OR THE PURCHASER REPRESENTATIVE’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THE LIABILITY OF ANY SUCH PERSON IS FOUND IN A FINAL RULING BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO HAVE RESULTED FROM SUCH PERSON’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OR (IN THE CASE OF ANY PARTY OTHER THAN THE PURCHASER REPRESENTATIVE) MATERIAL BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT.

Section 9.02. Waivers; Amendments.

(a) No failure or delay by the Purchaser Representative or any Purchaser in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Note Document shall operate as a waiver thereof except as provided herein or in any Note Document, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Purchaser Representative and the Purchasers hereunder and under any other Note Document are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Note Document or consent to any departure by any party hereto therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same is permitted by this Section 9.02, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which it is given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, the purchase of any Note shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether the Purchaser Representative or any Purchaser may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time.

133

(b) Subject to Sections 9.02(b) through (d) below and to Section 9.05(f), neither this Agreement nor any other Note Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified, except (i) in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Issuer and the Required Purchasers (or the Purchaser Representative with the consent of the Required Purchasers) or (ii) in the case of any other Note Document (other than any waiver, amendment or modification to effectuate any modification thereto expressly contemplated by the terms of such other Note Document), pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Required Purchasers and each Note Party that is party thereto; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing:

(A) the consent of each Purchaser directly and adversely affected thereby (but not the consent of the Required Purchasers) shall be required for any waiver, amendment or modification that:

(1) increases the Commitment of such Purchaser (other than with respect to any Additional Note pursuant to Section 2.22 in respect of which such Purchaser has agreed to be an Additional Purchaser); it being understood that no amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent to departure from, any condition precedent, representation, warranty, covenant, Default, Event of Default or mandatory reduction of the Commitments shall constitute an increase of any Commitment of such Purchaser;

(2) reduces the principal amount of any Note owed to such Purchaser or any amount due to such Purchaser on the Maturity Date;

(3) (x) extends the scheduled final maturity of any Note held by such Purchaser or (y) postpones any Interest Payment Date with respect to any Note held by such Purchaser hereunder (in each case, other than any extension for administrative reasons agreed by the Purchaser Representative);

(4) reduces the rate of interest (other than to waive any Default or Event of Default or any obligation of the Issuer to pay interest to such Purchaser at the default rate of interest under Section 2.15(d), which shall only require the consent of the Required Purchasers) or the amount of any fee or premium owed to such Purchaser; it being understood that no change in the definition of “Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA” or any other financial test, or in the calculation of any other interest, fee or premium due hereunder (including any component definition thereof) shall constitute a reduction in any rate of interest or fee hereunder;

(5) extends the expiry date of such Purchaser’s Commitment; it being understood that no amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent to departure from, any condition precedent, representation, warranty, covenant, Default, Event of Default or mandatory reduction of any Commitment shall constitute an extension of any Commitment of any Purchaser; or

(6) waives, amends or modifies the provisions of (I) Sections 2.21(a) or (c) of this Agreement in a manner that would by its terms alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby (except in connection with any transaction permitted under Sections 2.22 and/or 9.05(g) or as otherwise provided in this Section 9.02) or (II) Section 2.21(b);

134

(7) waives, amends or modifies the provisions of Article 10 that adversely affects the Conversion Rights of any Notes (other than any Second Amendment Delayed Draw Notes) hereunder;

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which any Purchaser sells such a participation shall provide that such Purchaser shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Purchaser will not, without the consent of the relevant Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in (x) clause (A) of the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that directly and adversely affects the Notes or commitments in which such Participant has an interest and (y) clauses (B)(1), (2) or (3) of the first proviso to Section 9.02(b). Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Issuer agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.18 and 2.20 (subject to the limitations and requirements of such Sections and Section 2.22) to the same extent as if it were a Purchaser and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section and it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.20(f) shall be delivered to the participating Purchaser, and if additional amounts are required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.20(a) or Section 2.20(c), to the Issuer and the Purchaser Representative). To the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.09 as though it were a Purchaser; provided that such Participant shall be subject to Section 2.21(c) as though it were a Purchaser.

141

(i) No Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.18 or 2.20 than the participating Purchaser would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Issuer’s prior written consent (in its sole discretion), expressly acknowledging that such Participant’s entitlement to benefits under Sections 2.18 and 2.20 is not limited to what the participating Purchaser would have been entitled to receive absent the participation.

Each Purchaser that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Issuer, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and their respective successors and registered assigns, and the principal and interest amounts of each Participant’s interest in the Notes or other obligations under the Note Documents (a “Participant Register”); provided that no Purchaser shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of any Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to any Participant’s interest in any Commitment, Note or any other obligation under any Note Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Note or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations or under Section 1.163 5(b) of the proposed U.S. Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and each Purchaser shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Purchaser Representative (in its capacity as Purchaser Representative) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(d) (i) Any Purchaser may at any time pledge or transfer a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (other than to any Disqualified Institution or any natural person) to secure obligations of such Purchaser, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to any Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank having jurisdiction over such Purchaser, and this Section 9.05 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release any Purchaser from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Purchaser as a party hereto.

(i) No Purchaser may at any time enter into a total return swap, total rate of return swap, credit default swap or other derivative instrument under which any Secured Obligation is a reference obligation with any counterparty that is a Disqualified Institution.

142

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Purchaser (a “Granting Purchaser”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Purchaser to the Purchaser Representative and the Issuer, the option to purchase from the Issuer all or any part of any Note that such Granting Purchaser would otherwise be obligated to purchase from the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to purchase any Note and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to purchase all or any part of such Note, the Granting Purchaser shall be obligated to purchase such Note pursuant to the terms hereof. The purchase of any Note by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Purchaser to the same extent, and as if, such Note was purchased by such Granting Purchaser. Each party hereto hereby agrees that (i) neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of such option shall increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase or change the obligations of the Issuer under this Agreement (including its obligations under Sections 2.18 or 2.20) and no SPC shall be entitled to any greater amount under Sections 2.18 or 2.20 or any other provision of this Agreement or any other Note Document that the Granting Purchaser would have been entitled to receive, unless the grant to such SPC is made with the prior written consent of the Issuer (in its sole discretion), expressly acknowledging that such SPC’s entitlement to benefits under Sections 2.18 and 2.20 is not limited to what the Granting Purchaser would have been entitled to receive absent the grant to the SPC, (ii) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Purchaser) and (iii) the Granting Purchaser shall for all purposes including approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of the Note Documents, remain the Purchaser of record hereunder. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the Requirements of Law of the U.S. or any State thereof; provided that (i) such SPC’s Granting Purchaser is in compliance in all material respects with its obligations to the Issuer hereunder and (ii) each Purchaser designating any SPC hereby agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless each other party hereto for any loss, cost, damage or expense arising out of its inability to institute such a proceeding against such SPC during such period of forbearance. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.05, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Issuer or the Purchaser Representative and without paying any processing fee therefor, transfer all or a portion of its interests in any Note to the Granting Purchaser and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Notes to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guaranty or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.

(f) (i) Any transfer or participation by a Purchaser (A) to any Disqualified Institution or any Affiliate thereof or (B) to the extent the Issuer’s consent is required under this Section 9.05 (and not deemed to have been given pursuant to Section 9.05(b)(i)(A)) without the Issuer’s consent, to any other Person, shall be null and void, and the Issuer shall be entitled to seek specific performance to unwind any such transfer and/or specifically enforce this Section 9.05(f) in addition to injunctive relief (without posting a bond or presenting evidence of irreparable harm) or any other remedies available to the Issuer at law or in equity; it being understood and agreed that the Issuer and its subsidiaries will suffer irreparable harm if any Purchaser breaches any obligation under this Section 9.05 as it relates to any transfer, participation or pledge of any Note or Commitment to any Disqualified Institution or any Affiliate thereof or any other Person to whom the Issuer’s consent is required but not obtained. Nothing in this Section 9.05(f) shall be deemed to prejudice any right or remedy that the Issuer may otherwise have at law or equity. Upon the request of any Purchaser, the Purchaser Representative may and the Issuer will make the list of Disqualified Institutions (other than any Disqualified Institution that is a reasonably identifiable Affiliate of another Disqualified Institution on the basis of such Person’s name) available to such Purchaser so long as such Purchaser agrees to keep the list of Disqualified Institutions confidential in accordance with the terms hereof.

143

(i) If any transfer under this Section 9.05 is made to any Disqualified Institution and/or Affiliate of any Disqualified Institution (other than any Competitor Debt Fund Affiliate) and/or any other Person whom the Issuer’s consent is required but not obtained, in each case without the Issuer’s prior written consent (any such person, a “Disqualified Person”), then the Issuer may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to the applicable Disqualified Person and the Purchaser Representative, (A) terminate any Commitment of such Disqualified Person and repay all obligations of the Issuer owing to such Disqualified Person, (B) in the case of any outstanding Notes, held by such Disqualified Person, purchase such Notes by paying the lesser of (x) par and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Person paid to acquire such Notes, plus accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and/or (C) require such Disqualified Person to transfer, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in this Section 9.05), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more Eligible Transferees; provided that (I) in the case of clause (B), the applicable Disqualified Person has received payment of an amount equal to the lesser of (1) par and (2) the amount that such Disqualified Person paid for the applicable Notes, plus accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the Issuer, (II) in the case of clause (C), the relevant transfer shall otherwise comply with this Section 9.05 (except that (x) no registration and processing fee required under this Section 9.05 shall be required with any transfer pursuant to this paragraph and (y) [reserved]) and (III) in no event shall such Disqualified Person be entitled to receive amounts set forth in Section 2.15(d).

For the sake of clarity, the provisions in this Section 9.05(f) shall not apply to any Person that is an assignee of any Disqualified Person, if such transferee is not a Disqualified Person.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Issuer and each Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Purchaser Representative shall not have any responsibility or obligation to determine whether any Purchaser or potential Purchaser is a Disqualified Institution or Disqualified Person and the Purchaser Representative shall have no liability with respect to any assignment or participation made to any Disqualified Institution or Disqualified Person (regardless of whether the consent of the Purchaser Representative is required thereto), and none of the Issuer, any Purchaser or their respective Affiliates will bring any claim to such effect.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Purchaser may, at any time, transfer all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of its Notes to any Affiliated Purchaser on a non-pro rata basis (A) through “Dutch auctions” open to all Purchasers holding the relevant Notes on a pro rata basis or (B) through open market purchases, in each case with respect to clauses (A) and (B), without the consent of the Purchaser Representative; provided that:

(i) (A) any Notes acquired by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, be retired and cancelled immediately upon the acquisition thereof; provided that upon any such retirement and cancellation, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes shall be deemed reduced by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes so retired and cancelled and (B) in no event shall the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries offer to acquire the Notes of any Affiliated Purchaser pursuant to this Section 9.05(g) unless such offer to acquire is made to all Purchasers holding the relevant Class of Notes on a pro rata basis (it being understood and agreed that if such other Purchasers of such Class decline (or fail to respond to) the offer to acquire such Notes within ~~five (~~5) Business Days of receipt of the offer to acquire such Notes from the Issuer or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, then the Issuer and/or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary shall be permitted to offer the entire amount so declined (or with respect to which there was a failure to respond) to Affiliated Purchasers;

144

(ii) any Notes acquired by any Non-Debt Fund Affiliate (other than the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) may (but shall not be required to) be contributed to the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries (it being understood that any such Notes shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, be retired and cancelled promptly upon such contribution); provided that upon any such cancellation, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes shall be deemed reduced, as of the date of such contribution, by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes so contributed and cancelled;

(iii) the relevant Affiliated Purchaser and transferring or purchasing, as applicable, Purchaser shall have executed an Affiliated Purchaser Transfer Agreement;

(iv) [reserved];

(vi) [reserved]; and

(vii) no Affiliated Purchaser shall be required to represent or warrant that it is not in possession of material non-public information with respect to the Issuer and/or any subsidiary thereof and/or their respective securities in connection with any assignment permitted by this Section 9.05(g).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Purchaser may, at any time, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of its Notes and/or Commitments to any Debt Fund Affiliate, and any Debt Fund Affiliate may, from time to time, purchase Notes and/or Commitments (x) on a pro rata basis through “Dutch auctions” open to all applicable Purchasers in accordance with customary procedures or (y) on a non-pro rata basis through open market purchases (including, for the avoidance of doubt, negotiated transactions) without the consent of the Purchaser Representative, in each case, notwithstanding the requirements set forth in subclauses (i) through (vii) of this clause (g); provided that the Notes and Commitments held by all Debt Fund Affiliates shall not account for more than 49.9% of the amounts included in determining whether the Required Purchasers have (A) consented to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any of the terms of any Note Document or any departure by any Note Party therefrom, (B) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Note Document or (C) directed or required the Purchaser Representative or any Purchaser to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Note Document; it being understood and agreed that the portion of the Note and/or Commitments that accounts for more than 49.9% of the relevant Required Purchaser action shall be deemed to be voted on pro rata basis in accordance with the votes of Purchasers that are not Debt Fund Affiliates; provided that in determining whether the Purchaser Representative shall be protected in relying on any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, or waiver, only Notes for which the Purchaser Representative has received written notice that such Notes are so owned shall be so disregarded. Any Note acquired by any Debt Fund Affiliate may (but shall not be required to) be contributed to the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries for purposes of cancelling such Indebtedness (it being understood that any Note so contributed shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, be retired and cancelled immediately upon thereof); provided that upon any such cancellation, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the relevant Class of Notes shall be deemed reduced, as of the date of such contribution, by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes so contributed and cancelled. The Purchaser Representative shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Debt Fund Affiliates, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Purchaser Representative shall not be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Purchaser or prospective Purchaser is a Debt Fund Affiliate.

145

(h) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Purchaser shall, directly or indirectly assign, sell, offer to sell, pledge, mortgage, hypothecate, encumber, dispose of or otherwise consummate or permit any like transfer or encumbrance of any Note (other than any Second Amendment Delayed Draw Note) held by such Purchaser, in each case other than together with a proportional interest in the applicable Stapled Series B Preferred Stock.

Section 9.09. Right of Setoff. At any time when an Event of Default exists, upon the written consent of the Required Purchasers, the Purchaser Representative and each Purchaser is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations (in any currency) at any time owing by the Purchaser Representative or such Purchaser to or for the credit or the account of any Note Party against any of and all the Secured Obligations held by the Purchaser Representative or such Purchaser, irrespective of whether or not the Purchaser Representative or such Purchaser has made any demand under the Note Documents and although such obligations may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Purchaser or Purchaser Representative different than the branch or office holding such deposit or obligation on such Indebtedness.

(c) (i) such Purchaser is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (ii) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Purchaser to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Notes, the Commitments and this Agreement, (iii) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Notes, the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (iv) to the best knowledge of such Purchaser, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Purchaser’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Notes, the Commitments and this Agreement, or

(d) such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Purchaser Representative, acting at the instruction of the Required Purchasers, and such Purchaser.

In addition, unless either (1) sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding paragraph is true with respect to a Purchaser or (2) a Purchaser has provided another representation, warranty and covenant in accordance with sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding paragraph, such Purchaser further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Purchaser party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Purchaser party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Purchaser party hereto, for the benefit of, the Purchaser Representative and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Issuer or any other Note Party, that the Purchaser Representative is not a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Purchaser involved in such Purchaser’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Notes, the Commitments and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Purchaser Representative under this Agreement, any Note Document or any documents related hereto or thereto).

For purposes of this paragraph, a Purchaser’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of, without duplication, unused Commitments and outstanding Notes, in each case, at the time (or most recently outstanding and in effect).

Section 9.25. Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Note Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Derivative Transactions or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “US Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Note Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the US or any other state of the US):

In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a US Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Note Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the US Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Note Documents were governed by the laws of the U.S. or a state of the U.S. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Purchaser shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support;

(b) As used in this Section 9.25, the following terms have the following meanings:

This Agreement and all obligations hereunder shall terminate on the date of the valid and legally binding termination of the Transaction Support Agreement with respect to any Company Party (as defined in the Transaction Support Agreement) and/or any Consenting First Lien Lender (as defined in the Transaction Support Agreement), in each case, prior to the Closing Date.

ARTICLE 10 CONVERSION OF NOTES

Section 10.01. Conversion Privilege. Subject to the conditions and upon compliance with the provisions of this Article 10, each holder of a Note shall have the right, at such holder’s option, to convert all or any portion (if the portion to be converted is $1,000 principal amount or an integral multiple thereof) of such Note at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date (the “Conversion Right”). Upon conversion of a Note, the holder of such Note shall be entitled to receive from the Issuer a number of shares of Common Stock equal to (i) the principal amount of such Note plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon (the “Converted Amount”) divided by (ii) the Conversion Price (with cash in lieu of any fractional share as provided for herein) (the “Conversion Shares”).

153

Section 10.02. Forced Conversion.

(a) On or after the second anniversary of the Closing Date, the Issuer may, at its option, from time to time, elect to convert (a “Forced Conversion”) a portion of the outstanding Notes into the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion pursuant to Section 10.01 (with cash in lieu of any fractional share as provided for herein) based on the Conversion Price then in effect if, and only if (i) the Daily VWAP of the Common Stock has been at least 200% of the Conversion Price then in effect on at least 30 Trading Days (whether or not consecutive) in the period of 45 consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Forced Conversion Notice Date, (ii) the Issuer provides the Forced Conversion Notice on a Trading Day and the Daily VWAP of the Common Stock is at least 200% of the Conversion Price in effect on such Forced Conversion Notice Date and (iii) a registration statement covering the resale of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such Forced Conversion is effective and available for use by the holders of converted Notes on the Forced Conversion Notice Date and the Issuer in good faith expects such registration statement to remain effective and available for such purpose, without any blackout on the use thereof (any period when a blackout is in effect, a “Blackout Period”), for a period of at least ~~twenty (~~20) days after the Forced Conversion Date, provided, that, in the event that the Issuer provides written notice of any Forced Conversion that would be effective but for the fact that the date of such written notice falls within any Blackout Period, such Forced Conversion shall only be effective if (A) the Daily VWAP of the Common Stock is at least 200% of the Conversion Price then in effect on each of the first two Trading Days immediately following the last day of such Blackout Period, (B) the Issuer provides written confirmation of such Forced Conversion on the second such Trading Day to all holders of the Notes and (C) the foregoing clause (iii) is satisfied on such second Trading Day, and in such event such second Trading Day shall be deemed the Forced Conversion Notice Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Issuer shall not be permitted to exercise the Forced Conversion right at any one time with respect to a principal amount of Notes exceeding 25% of the aggregate original principal amount of all Initial Notes, First Amendment Notes and Delayed Draw Notes, if any, that have been issued hereunder (in each case, plus the amount of any interest thereon that has been capitalized thereon), and if the Issuer exercises the Forced Conversion right on any Trading Day, the Issuer may not exercise the Forced Conversion right again until the Trading Day immediately following the date on which the shares of Common Stock issuable in connection with the former Forced Conversion have been delivered to the applicable Purchasers.

(b) In order for the Issuer to exercise its right to elect a Forced Conversion of any portion of the outstanding Notes pursuant to this Section 10.02, the Issuer shall give written notice (the “Forced Conversion Notice”) to all holders of the Notes on a Trading Day (the date of such notice, the “Forced Conversion Notice Date”) stating that the Issuer elects to force conversion of such portion of the outstanding Notes pursuant to this Section 10.02 and shall state therein (i) the outstanding principal amount of such Purchaser’s Notes to be converted, (ii) the Conversion Price on the Forced Conversion Notice Date and (iii) the Issuer’s computation of the number of shares of Common Stock (together with cash in lieu of any fractional share) to be received by the Purchaser. The Issuer shall deliver the shares of Common Stock (together with cash in lieu of any fractional share) issuable upon any Forced Conversion on the third Trading Day immediately following the applicable Forced Conversion Notice Date (the “Forced Conversion Date”). For the avoidance of doubt, the exercise by the Issuer of its Forced Conversion right shall not limit or otherwise affect the right of any holder to convert all or any portion of its Notes at any time prior to the Forced Conversion Date. The Forced Conversion Notice Date with respect to any Forced Conversion shall be deemed to be the Conversion Date with respect to such Forced Conversion.

(c) Any Forced Conversion pursuant to this Section 10.02 shall be made in compliance with the provisions of Section 10.03 and the other applicable provisions of this Article 10.

Section 10.03. Conversion Procedure; Settlement Upon Conversion.

(a) Upon conversion of any Note, the Issuer shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the holder of converted Notes the number of Conversion Shares determined in accordance with Section 10.01 (with cash in lieu of any fractional share) on the second Business Day immediately following the relevant Conversion Date (except as specified in Section 10.02(b)). Such delivery shall be effected through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company and, if applicable, bear a customary legend regarding securities law restrictions registered in the name of the relevant holder (provided such Person must be an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act). Upon the Conversion Date, the holder of converted Notes shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Conversion Shares with respect to which such Note (or portion thereof) has been converted.

154

(b) To exercise the Conversion Right with respect to all or any portion of any Note on any date (the “Conversion Date”), the holder of such Note shall transmit by email (or otherwise deliver), for receipt on or prior to 5:00 p.m. New York City time on such date, an unsigned copy of a written holder conversion notice in the form attached hereto as Exhibit S to the offices of the Issuer, at ATI Physical Therapy, Inc., 790 Remington Boulevard, Bolingbrook, Illinois 60440 (Attention: Joseph Jordan, Chief Financial Officer, Email: joseph.jordan@atipt.com), or such other address or email address as the Issuer may designate in writing, and to the Purchaser Representative, at 500 Delaware Ave., Wilmington, DE 19801 (Attention: ATI Holdings Acquisition, Inc., Email: phealy@wsfsbank.com). The Issuer shall maintain records showing the principal converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the relevant holder and the Issuer. The holder of each Note and any assignee, by acceptance of such Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of any portion of any Note, the principal amount of any Note may be less than the principal amount stated on the face thereof.

(c) If a Note is converted, the Issuer shall pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issue of the shares of Common Stock upon conversion, unless the tax is due because the holder requests such shares to be issued in a name other than the holder’s name, in which case the holder shall pay that tax.

(d) The Person in whose name the shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon conversion shall be treated as a stockholder of record as of the close of business on the relevant Conversion Date.

(e) The Issuer shall not deliver any fractional share of Common Stock upon conversion of the Notes and shall instead pay cash in lieu of delivering any fractional share of Common Stock issuable upon conversion based on the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock on the relevant Conversion Date.

Section 10.04. Adjustment of Conversion Price. The Conversion Price shall be adjusted from time to time by the Issuer if any of the following events occurs:

(a) If the Issuer exclusively issues shares of Common Stock as a dividend or distribution on shares of the Common Stock, or if the Issuer effects a share split or share combination, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

where,

CP₀

the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date of such dividend or distribution, or immediately prior to the open of business on the Effective Date of such share split or share combination, as applicable;

CP'

the Conversion Price in effect immediately after the close of business on such Record Date or immediately after the open of business on such Effective Date, as applicable;

OS₀

the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the close of business on such Record Date or immediately prior to the open of business on such Effective Date, as applicable (before giving effect to any such dividend, distribution, split or combination); and

OS'

the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination.

155

Any adjustment made under this clause (a) shall become effective immediately after the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution, or immediately after the open of business on the Effective Date for such share split or share combination, as applicable. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this clause (a) is declared but not so paid or made, the Conversion Price shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Issuer determines not to pay such dividend or distribution, to the Conversion Price that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

(b) If the Issuer issues to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock any rights, options or warrants entitling them, for a period of not more than 45 calendar days after the announcement date of such issuance, to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Common Stock at a price per share that is less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock for the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

where,

CP₀

the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date for such issuance;

CP'

the Conversion Price in effect immediately after the close of business on such Record Date;

OS₀

the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the close of business on such Record Date;

the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants; and

the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, divided by the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of the issuance of such rights, options or warrants.

Any adjustment made under this clause (b) shall be made successively whenever any such rights, options or warrants are issued and shall become effective immediately after the close of business on the Record Date for such issuance. To the extent that shares of the Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights, options or warrants, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted to the Conversion Price that would then be in effect had the adjustment with respect to the issuance of such rights, options or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered. If such rights, options or warrants are not so issued, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted to the Conversion Price that would then be in effect if such Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance had not occurred.

For purposes of this clause (b), in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Common Stock at less than such average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock for the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement for such issuance, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Issuer for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise or conversion thereof, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Issuer in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner.

156

(c) If the Issuer distributes shares of its Capital Stock, evidences of its Indebtedness, other assets or property of the Issuer or rights, options or warrants to acquire its Capital Stock or other securities, to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, excluding (i) dividends, distributions or issuances as to which an adjustment was effected pursuant to Section 10.04(a) or Section 10.04(b), (ii) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash as to which the provisions set forth in Section 10.04(d) shall apply, and (iii) Spin-Offs as to which the provisions set forth below in this Section 10.04(c) shall apply (any of such shares of Capital Stock, evidences of Indebtedness, other assets or property or rights, options or warrants to acquire Capital Stock or other securities, the “Distributed Property”), then the Conversion Price shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

where,

CP₀

the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date for such distribution;

CP'

the Conversion Price in effect immediately after the close of business on such Record Date;

SP₀

the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; and

FMV

the fair market value (as determined by the Issuer in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner) of the Distributed Property with respect to each outstanding share of the Common Stock on the Record Date for such distribution.

Any adjustment made under the portion of this clause (c) above shall become effective immediately after the close of business on the Record Date for such distribution. If such distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted to the Conversion Price that would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “FMV” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP₀” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, each holder of a Note shall receive, in respect of each $1,000 principal amount thereof, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock receive the Distributed Property, the amount and kind of Distributed Property such holder would have received if such holder exercised the Conversion Right with respect to such Note in full immediately prior to the Ex-Dividend Date for the distribution. If the Issuer determines the “FMV” (as defined above) of any distribution for purposes of this clause (c) by reference to the actual or when-issued trading market for any securities, it shall in doing so consider the prices in such market over the same period used in computing the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution.

With respect to an adjustment pursuant to this clause (c) where there has been a payment of a dividend or other distribution on the Common Stock of shares of Capital Stock of any class or series, or similar equity interest, of or relating to a Subsidiary or other business unit of the Issuer, that are, or, when issued, will be, listed or admitted for trading on a U.S. national securities exchange (a “Spin-Off”), the Conversion Price shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

157

where,

CP₀

the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the end of the Valuation Period;

CP'

the Conversion Price in effect immediately after the end of the Valuation Period;

FMV₀

the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Capital Stock or similar equity interest distributed to holders of the Common Stock applicable to one share of the Common Stock (determined by reference to the definition of Last Reported Sale Price as if references therein to Common Stock were to such Capital Stock or similar equity interest) over the first 10 consecutive Trading Day period after, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date of the Spin-Off (the “Valuation Period”); and

MP₀

the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the Valuation Period.

The adjustment to the Conversion Price under the preceding paragraph shall occur at the close of business on the last Trading Day of the Valuation Period.

For purposes of this clause (c) (and subject in all respect to Section 10.09), rights, options or warrants distributed by the Issuer to all holders of the Common Stock entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Issuer’s Capital Stock, including Common Stock (either initially or under certain circumstances), which rights, options or warrants, until the occurrence of a specified event or events (“Trigger Event”): (i) are deemed to be transferred with such shares of the Common Stock; (ii) are not exercisable; and (iii) are also issued in respect of future issuances of the Common Stock, shall be deemed not to have been distributed for purposes of this clause (c) (and no adjustment to the Conversion Price under this clause (c) will be required) until the occurrence of the earliest Trigger Event, whereupon such rights, options or warrants shall be deemed to have been distributed and an appropriate adjustment (if any is required) to the Conversion Price shall be made under this clause (c). If any such right, option or warrant, including any such existing rights, options or warrants distributed prior to the date of this Agreement, are subject to events, upon the occurrence of which such rights, options or warrants become exercisable to purchase different securities, evidences of indebtedness or other assets, then the date of the occurrence of any and each such event shall be deemed to be the date of distribution and Record Date with respect to new rights, options or warrants with such rights (in which case the existing rights, options or warrants shall be deemed to terminate and expire on such date without exercise by any of the holders thereof). In addition, in the event of any distribution (or deemed distribution) of rights, options or warrants, or any Trigger Event or other event (of the type described in the immediately preceding sentence) with respect thereto that was counted for purposes of calculating a distribution amount for which an adjustment to the Conversion Price under this clause (c) was made, (1) in the case of any such rights, options or warrants that shall all have been redeemed or purchased without exercise by any holders thereof, upon such final redemption or purchase (x) the Conversion Price shall be readjusted as if such rights, options or warrants had not been issued and (y) the Conversion Price shall then again be readjusted to give effect to such distribution, deemed distribution or Trigger Event, as the case may be, as though it were a cash distribution, equal to the per share redemption or purchase price received by a holder or holders of Common Stock with respect to such rights, options or warrants (assuming such holder had retained such rights, options or warrants), made to all holders of Common Stock as of the date of such redemption or purchase, and (2) in the case of such rights, options or warrants that shall have expired or been terminated without exercise by any holders thereof, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted as if such rights, options and warrants had not been issued.

(d) If any cash dividend or distribution is made to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

158

where,

CP₀

the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution;

CP'

the Conversion Price in effect immediately after the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution;

SP₀

the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution; and

the amount in cash per share the Issuer distributes to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock.

Any adjustment pursuant to this clause (d) shall become effective immediately after the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution. If such dividend or distribution is not so paid, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted, effective as of the date the Issuer determines not to make or pay such dividend or distribution, to be the Conversion Price that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “C” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP₀” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, each holder of a Note shall receive, for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of shares of the Common Stock, the amount of cash that such holder would have received if such holder exercised the Conversion Right with respect to such Note in full immediately prior to the Ex-Dividend Date for such cash dividend or distribution.

(e) If the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries make a payment in respect of a tender or exchange offer for the Common Stock, to the extent that the cash and value of any other consideration included in the payment per share of the Common Stock exceeds the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period commencing on, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the last date on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

where,

CP₀

the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the 10th Trading Day immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires;

CP'

the Conversion Price in effect immediately after the close of business on the 10th Trading Day immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires;

the aggregate value of all cash and any other consideration (as determined by the Issuer) paid or payable for shares of Common Stock purchased in such tender or exchange offer;

OS₀

the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the date such tender or exchange offer expires (prior to giving effect to the purchase of all shares of Common Stock accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer);

159

OS'

the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the date such tender or exchange offer expires (after giving effect to the purchase of all shares of Common Stock accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer); and

SP'

the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period commencing on, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires.

The adjustment to the Conversion Price under this clause (e) shall occur at the close of business on the 10th Trading Day immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires.

(f)

(i) In the event the Issuer shall at any time after the date hereof issue Additional Shares of Common Stock (including Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued pursuant to the terms hereof), without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance or deemed issuance, then the Conversion Price shall be reduced, concurrently with such issuance or deemed issuance, to the consideration per share received by the Issuer for such issue or deemed issue of the Additional Shares of Common Stock; provided that if such issuance or deemed issuance was without consideration, then the Issuer shall be deemed to have received an aggregate of one-tenth of a cent ($.001) of consideration for all such Additional Shares of Common Stock issued or deemed to be issued.

(ii) If the Issuer at any time or from time to time after the date hereof shall issue any Options or Convertible Securities (excluding Options or Convertible Securities which are themselves Exempted Securities) or shall fix a Record Date for the determination of holders of any class of securities entitled to receive any such Options or Convertible Securities, then the maximum number of shares of Common Stock (as set forth in the instrument relating thereto, assuming the satisfaction of any conditions to exercisability, convertibility or exchangeability but without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number) issuable upon the exercise of such Options or, in the case of Convertible Securities and Options therefor, the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, shall be deemed to be Additional Shares of Common Stock issued as of the time of such issue or, in case such a Record Date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such Record Date.

(iii) If the terms of any Option or Convertible Security, the issuance of which resulted in an adjustment to the Conversion Price, are revised as a result of an amendment to such terms or any other adjustment pursuant to the provisions of such Option or Convertible Security (but excluding automatic adjustments to such terms pursuant to anti-dilution or similar provisions of such Option or Convertible Security) to provide for either (1) any increase or decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion and/or exchange of any such Option or Convertible Security or (2) any increase or decrease in the consideration payable to the Issuer upon such exercise, conversion and/or exchange, then, effective upon such increase or decrease becoming effective, the Conversion Price computed upon the original issue of such Option or Convertible Security (or upon the occurrence of a Record Date with respect thereto) shall be readjusted to such Conversion Price as would have obtained had such revised terms been in effect upon the original date of issuance of such Option or Convertible Security. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no readjustment shall have the effect of increasing the Conversion Price to an amount which exceeds the lower of (i) the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the original adjustment made as a result of the issuance of such Option or Convertible Security, or (ii) the Conversion Price that would have resulted from any issuances of Additional Shares of Common Stock (other than deemed issuances of Additional Shares of Common Stock as a result of the issuance of such Option or Convertible Security) between the original adjustment date and such readjustment date.

160

(iv) If the terms of any Option or Convertible Security (excluding Options or Convertible Securities which are themselves Exempted Securities), the issuance of which did not result in an adjustment to the Conversion Price (either because the consideration per share of the Additional Shares of Common Stock subject thereto was equal to or greater than the Conversion Price then in effect, or because such Option or Convertible Security was issued before the date hereof), are revised after the date hereof as a result of an amendment to such terms or any other adjustment pursuant to the provisions of such Option or Convertible Security (but excluding automatic adjustments to such terms pursuant to anti-dilution or similar provisions of such Option or Convertible Security) to provide for either (1) any increase in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of any such Option or Convertible Security or (2) any decrease in the consideration payable to the Issuer upon such exercise, conversion or exchange, then such Option or Convertible Security, as so amended or adjusted, and the Additional Shares of Common Stock subject thereto shall be deemed to have been issued effective upon such increase or decrease becoming effective.

(v) Upon the expiration or termination of any unexercised Option or unconverted or unexchanged Convertible Security (or portion thereof) which resulted (either upon its original issuance or upon a revision of its terms) in an adjustment to the Conversion Price, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to such Conversion Price as would have obtained had such Option or Convertible Security (or portion thereof) never been issued.

(vi) If the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion and/or exchange of any Option or Convertible Security, or the consideration payable to the Issuer upon such exercise, conversion and/or exchange, is calculable at the time such Option or Convertible Security is issued or amended but is subject to adjustment based upon subsequent events, any adjustment to the Conversion Price provided for in this provision shall be effected at the time of such issuance or amendment based on such number of shares or amount of consideration without regard to any provisions for subsequent adjustments (and any subsequent adjustments shall be treated as provided in the other provisions hereof). If the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion and/or exchange of any Option or Convertible Security, or the consideration payable to the Issuer upon such exercise, conversion and/or exchange, cannot be calculated at all at the time such Option or Convertible Security is issued or amended, any adjustment to the Conversion Price that would result at the time of such issuance or amendment shall instead be effected at the time such number of shares and/or amount of consideration is first calculable (even if subject to subsequent adjustments), assuming for purposes of calculating such adjustment to the Conversion Price that such issuance or amendment took place at the time such calculation can first be made.

(vii) For purposes of this provision, the consideration received by the Issuer for the issuance or deemed issuance of any Additional Shares of Common Stock shall be computed as follows:

(A) Cash and Property. Such consideration shall:

(1) insofar as it consists of cash, be computed at the aggregate amount of cash received by the Issuer, excluding amounts paid or payable for accrued interest;

(2) insofar as it consists of property other than cash, be computed at the fair market value thereof at the time of such issue, as determined by the Issuer in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner; and

161

(3) in the event Additional Shares of Common Stock are issued together with other shares or securities or other assets of the Issuer for consideration which covers both, be the proportion of such consideration so received, computed as provided in clauses (1) and (2) above, as determined by the Issuer in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner.

(B) Options and Convertible Securities. The consideration per share received by the Issuer for Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued relating to Options and Convertible Securities shall be determined by dividing:

(1) The total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Issuer as consideration for the issue of such Options or Convertible Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such consideration) payable to the Issuer upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, or in the case of Options for Convertible Securities, the exercise of such Options for Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, by

(2) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number) issuable upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, or in the case of Options for Convertible Securities, the exercise of such Options for Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.

(viii) In the event the Issuer shall issue on more than one date Additional Shares of Common Stock that are a part of one transaction or a series of related transactions and that would result in an adjustment to the Conversion Price pursuant to the terms hereof, and such issuance dates occur within a period of no more than ninety (90) days from the first such issuance to the final such issuance, then, upon the final such issuance, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to give effect to all such issuances as if they occurred on the date of the first such issuance (and without giving effect to any additional adjustments as a result of any such subsequent issuances within such period).

(g) In addition to those adjustments required by the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.04, and to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to the applicable rules of any exchange on which any of the Issuer’s securities are then listed, the Issuer from time to time may decrease the Conversion Price by any amount for a period of at least 20 Business Days if the Issuer determines that such decrease would be in the Issuer’s best interest. In addition, to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to the applicable rules of any exchange on which any of the Issuer’s securities are then listed, the Issuer may (but is not required to) decrease the Conversion Price to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders of Common Stock or rights to purchase Common Stock in connection with a dividend or distribution of shares of Common Stock (or rights to acquire shares of Common Stock) or similar event. Whenever the Conversion Price is decreased pursuant to either of the preceding two sentences, the Issuer shall deliver to the holder of each Note a notice of the decrease at least 15 days prior to the date the decreased Conversion Price takes effect, and such notice shall state the decreased Conversion Price and the period during which it will be in effect.

(h) All calculations and other determinations under this Article 10 shall be made by the Issuer and shall be made to the nearest one-ten thousandth (1/10,000th) of a share.

(i) Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted as herein provided, the Issuer shall promptly deliver to holders of the Notes an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

162

(j) For purposes of this Section 10.04, the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Issuer so long as the Issuer does not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Issuer, but shall include shares of Common Stock issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock.

Section 10.05. Shares To Be Fully Paid. The Issuer shall provide free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued shares or shares held in treasury, sufficient shares of Common Stock to provide for conversion of the Notes from time to time as such Notes are presented for conversion.

Section 10.06. Effect of Recapitalizations; Reclassifications and Changes of Common Stock.

(a) In the case of:

(i) any recapitalization, reclassification or change of the Common Stock (other than changes resulting from a stock split, subdivision or combination),

(ii) any consolidation, merger, combination or similar transaction involving the Issuer,

(iii) any sale, lease or other transfer to a third party of the consolidated assets of the Issuer and the Issuer’s Subsidiaries substantially as an entirety or

(iv) any statutory share exchange,

in each case, as a result of which the Common Stock would be converted into, or exchanged for, stock, other securities, other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) (any such event, a “Merger Event”), then, at and after the effective time of such Merger Event, the right to convert the Notes shall be changed into a right to convert the Notes at the Conversion Price for the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) that a holder of one share of Common Stock would have owned or been entitled to receive (the “Reference Property”) upon such Merger Event.

If the Merger Event causes the Common Stock to be converted into, or exchanged for, the right to receive more than a single type of consideration (determined based in part upon any form of stockholder election), then (i) the Reference Property into which the Notes will be convertible shall be deemed to be (x) the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration received by the holders of Common Stock that affirmatively make such an election or (y) if no holders of Common Stock affirmatively make such an election, the types and amounts of consideration actually received by the holders of Common Stock, and (ii) the Reference Property for purposes of the immediately preceding paragraph shall refer to the consideration referred to in clause (i) attributable to one share of Common Stock. The Issuer shall notify holders of such weighted average as soon as practicable after such determination is made.

Following any Merger Event, the anti-dilution and other adjustments set forth herein shall be applied in a manner as nearly equivalent as is possible to the adjustments provided for in this Article. If, in the case of any Merger Event, the Reference Property includes shares of stock, securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) of a Person other than the successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, in such Merger Event, then such other Person shall agree to undertake the obligations of the Issuer in this Agreement and shall undertake such additional obligations to protect the interests of the holders of the Notes as the Issuer shall reasonably consider necessary by reason of the foregoing.

(b) If a Merger Event occurs, the Issuer shall promptly deliver to holders of the Notes an Officers’ Certificate briefly stating the reasons therefor, the kind or amount of cash, securities or property or asset that will comprise the Reference Property after any such Merger Event, any adjustment to be made with respect thereto and that all conditions precedent have been complied with.

163

(c) The Issuer shall not become a party to any Merger Event unless its terms are consistent with this Section. None of the foregoing provisions shall affect the right of a holder of Notes to convert its Notes prior to the effective date of such Merger Event.

(d) The above provisions of this Section shall similarly apply to successive Merger Events.

Section 10.07. Certain Covenants.

(a) No later than June 14, 2023, the Issuer shall convene and hold an annual or special meeting of the stockholders of the Issuer (the “Issuance Approval Meeting”) at which the stockholders of the Issuer will be asked to approve the issuance of all shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Notes as provided for in this Agreement (the “Issuance Approval”), and the proxy statement related to such Issuance Approval Meeting will include a recommendation by the Issuer’s board of directors (subject to the fiduciary duties of the Issuer’s board of directors) that the stockholders of the Issuer vote in favor of such proposal.

(b) The Issuer covenants that all shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of Notes will be fully paid and non-assessable by the Issuer and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof.

(c) The Issuer covenants that, if any shares of Common Stock to be provided for the purpose of conversion of Notes hereunder require registration with or approval of any governmental authority under any federal or state law before such shares of Common Stock may be validly issued upon conversion, the Issuer will, to the extent then permitted by the rules and interpretations of the SEC, secure such registration or approval, as the case may be.

(d) The Issuer further covenants that if at any time the Common Stock shall be listed on any national securities exchange or automated quotation system, the Issuer will list and keep listed, so long as the Common Stock shall be so listed on such exchange or automated quotation system, any Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes.

Section 10.08. Notice to Holders Prior to Certain Actions. In case of any:

(a) action by the Issuer or one of its Subsidiaries that would require an adjustment in the Conversion Price pursuant to this Article;

(b) Merger Event; or

then, in each case (unless notice of such event is otherwise required pursuant to another provision of this Agreement), the Issuer shall deliver to each holder of the Notes, as promptly as possible but in any event at least 20 days prior to the applicable date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (i) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such action by the Issuer or one of its Subsidiaries or, if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of Common Stock of record are to be determined for the purposes of such action by the Issuer or one of its Subsidiaries, or (ii) the date on which such Merger Event, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is expected to become effective or occur, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their Common Stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such Merger Event, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of such action by the Issuer or one of its Subsidiaries, Merger Event, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up

164

Section 10.09. Stockholder Rights Plans. If the Issuer has a stockholder rights plan in effect upon conversion of the Notes, each share of Common Stock issued upon such conversion shall be entitled to receive the appropriate number of rights, if any, and the certificates representing the Common Stock issued upon such conversion shall bear such legends, if any, in each case as may be provided by the terms of any such stockholder rights plan, as the same may be amended from time to time. However, if, prior to any conversion of Notes, the rights have separated from the shares of Common Stock in accordance with the provisions of the applicable all or substantially all holders of the Distributed Property as provided in Section 10.04(c), subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights.

Section 10.10. Effect of Conversion. Upon the conversion of all or any portion of any Note in accordance with the provisions of this Article 10, the relevant Converted Amount shall be deemed to have been paid in full in cash for all purposes under this Agreement, and neither the Issuer nor any other Note Party shall have any further liability with respect to such Converted Amount. In the event of the conversion of all or any portion of any Note in accordance with the provisions of this Article 10, upon delivery of any Conversion Shares, Common Stock or other cash, securities or property or asset for the Converted Amount, the Issuer will provide the Purchaser Representative with (y) written confirmation of (I) such delivery, and (II) the amount of Converted Amount deemed to have been paid in full in cash for all purposes under this Agreement as a result of such delivery, and (z) an irrevocable instruction to reflect on the Register the payment of the Converted Amount that is deemed so paid in full as a result of such delivery. Other than to update the Register pursuant an instruction pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Purchaser Representative shall have no obligation or duty pursuant to Article 10 or with respect to the Conversion Shares, Common Stock or any other cash, securities or property or asset distributed pursuant to Article 10 or any requirements or conditions related to the delivery of, or exchange or conversion thereof, or any other fact or matter in connection with the Conversion Shares, Common Stock or any other cash, securities or property or asset distributed pursuant to Article 10 or the provisions of this Article 10. In furtherance of the foregoing, in no event shall the Purchaser Representative have any duties or obligations, nor shall they in any event have any liability, with respect to any Note Party’s or any Purchaser’s compliance with applicable securities laws in respect of the Notes, the Conversion Shares, Common Stock or any other cash, securities or property or asset distributed pursuant to Article 10.

Section 10.11. Closing Date. It is understood and agreed for the avoidance of doubt that the provisions of this Article 10 shall have no effect if the Closing Date does not occur.

Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything contained herein, it is understood and agreed that nothing in this Article 10 applies or shall apply to any Second Amendment Delayed Draw Notes and/or Second Amendment Delayed Draw Note Purchaser (in their capacity as a Second Amended Delayed Draw Note Purchaser).

(d) On or prior to each Interest Payment Date, the Issuer shall issue to each Purchaser, and each Purchaser shall acquire and receive from the Issuer, shares of PIK Series B Preferred Stock in an amount equal to the quotient (rounded down to the nearest whole number) obtained by dividing (A) the aggregate principal amount of interest paid in kind on such Interest Payment Date to such Purchaser by (B) $1,000.
