RECITALS

WHEREAS, the Company intends to commence voluntary reorganization cases for each of the Debtors under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Court”) to implement the Restructuring (collectively, the “Chapter 11 Cases”); and

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and agreements contained herein, and for other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each Party, intending to be legally bound hereby, agrees as follows:

This Agreement shall in no way be construed to preclude any Consenting Noteholder from acquiring additional Floating Rate Note Claims; provided, however, that such additional Floating Rate Note Claims shall automatically and immediately upon acquisition by a Consenting Noteholder, as legal or beneficial owner, be deemed subject to all of the terms of this Agreement.

Section 4. Certain Additional Chapter 11 Related Matters.

(a) the breach in any material respect by the Company of any of the obligations, representations, warranties, commitments, or covenants of the Company set forth in this Agreement; provided, however, that the Company shall have five (5) business days to cure any such breach upon receipt of notice in accordance with Section 9.11 hereof;

(b) if the Secured Swap Agreement is not terminated before the Petition Date and any claims arising thereunder are not paid in cash in full prior to the Petition Date;

(e) the failure of the Company to obtain approval of the DIP Facility on a final basis by entry of an order of the Bankruptcy Court in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Requisite Consenting Noteholders as soon as reasonably practicable and in any event no later than 35 calendar days after the Petition Date;

(k) a reasonable determination by the Requisite Consenting Noteholders that:

(i) there are filed and allowed claims, including General Unsecured Claims, not previously disclosed to the Consenting Noteholders, the existence of which would — if allowed — have a material adverse effect on either the Company, the Restructuring, or the allocation of New Common Stock to holders of Floating Rate Note Claims as set forth in the Plan (provided, however, that if such were to occur, the Debtors, with the consent of the Requisite Consenting Noteholders not to be unreasonably withheld, would be entitled to seek estimation of such filed/disputed claims prior to the confirmation hearing, and a ruling granting in full the Debtors’ estimation request that is supported by the Requisite Consenting Noteholders would therefore not constitute a termination right hereunder); or

(ii) the aggregate amount of (x) timely filed proofs of claim for General Unsecured Claims, (y) unsecured, nonpriority claims identified by the Debtors in any schedules or statements filed pursuant to section 521 of the Bankruptcy Code or Rule 1007 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure as unliquidated, undisputed, and not contingent, and (z) General Unsecured Claims other than Floating Rate Note Deficiency Claims allowed by order of the Bankruptcy Court or otherwise exceeds $18,000,000;

(p) the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the applicable agreements governing the DIP Facility) under the DIP Facility;

(q) the occurrence of an event of default under either of those two certain Financing and Service Agreements between Constar Holland and ING Commercial Finance B.V., both dated April 29, 2010, after expiration of any applicable cure period provided therein;

(r) the amendment, modification, or filing of any pleading by the Debtors seeking to amend or modify the Plan, Solicitation Materials, or any documents related to the foregoing, including motions, notices, exhibits, appendices, and orders, in a manner not reasonably acceptable to the Requisite Consenting Noteholders; or

(s) the Debtors filing any pleading with the Bankruptcy Court that is not materially consistent in any respect with this Agreement or with the Plan and such pleading has not been withdrawn prior to the earlier of (i) three business days of the Company receiving written notice in accordance with Section 9.11 hereof from the Requisite Consenting Noteholders that such pleading is inconsistent with this Agreement or the Plan and (ii) entry of an order of the Bankruptcy Court approving the relief requested in such pleading, if any.

Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, upon the written consent of the Requisite Consenting Noteholders, the milestones set forth in this Section 7.01 may be extended prior to or upon each such date and such later dates agreed to in lieu thereof and shall be of the same force and effect as the dates provided herein.

(a) the breach by Requisite Consenting Noteholders of any of the representations, warranties, or covenants set forth in this Agreement that would have a material adverse impact on the Company or the consummation of the Restructuring that remains uncured for a period of three business days after the receipt by all Consenting Noteholders of written notice of such breach from the Company;

(b) the board of directors of Constar International Inc. reasonably determines that, based upon the advice of counsel, proceeding with the Restructuring would be inconsistent with the exercise of its fiduciary duties; or

(c) the issuance by any governmental authority, including any regulatory authority or court of competent jurisdiction, of any ruling or order enjoining the consummation of a material portion of the Restructuring.

7.03. Mutual Termination. This Agreement, and the obligations of all Parties hereunder, may be terminated by mutual agreement between the Company and the Requisite Consenting Noteholders.

7.04. Effect of Termination. Upon termination of this Agreement under Section 7.01, 7.02, or 7.03, this Agreement shall be of no further force and effect and each Party hereto shall be released from its commitments, undertakings, and agreements under or related to this Agreement and shall have the rights and remedies that it would have had had it not entered into this Agreement, and shall be entitled to take all actions, whether with respect to the Restructuring or otherwise, that it would have been entitled to take had it not entered into this Agreement. Upon the occurrence of any termination of this Agreement, any and all consents tendered by the Parties prior to such termination shall be deemed, for all purposes, to be null and void from the first instance and shall not be considered or otherwise used in any manner by the Parties in

connection with the Restructuring and this Agreement or otherwise; provided, however, that in no event will any such termination relieve a Party from liability for its breach or non-performance of its obligations hereunder prior to the date of such termination.

Section 9. Miscellaneous.

9.01. Further Assurances. Subject to the other terms of this Agreement, the Parties agree to execute and deliver such other instruments and perform such acts, in addition to the matters herein specified, as may be reasonably appropriate or necessary, from time to time, to effectuate the Restructuring contemplated in this Agreement and in the Plan.

9.02. Complete Agreement.

arising out of or related to this Agreement, to the extent permitted by law, in either the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Chosen Court”), and solely in connection with claims arising under this Agreement: (a) irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Chosen Court; (b) waives any objection to laying venue in any such action or proceeding in the Chosen Court; and (c) waives any objection that the Chosen Court are an inconvenient forum or do not have jurisdiction over any Party hereto; provided, however, that, following the Petition Date, then the Bankruptcy Court shall be the sole Chosen Court.

In particular, notwithstanding any nonbankruptcy law to the contrary, the Reorganized Debtors expressly reserve and do not waive any right to receive, or any continuing obligation of a counterparty to provide, warranties or continued maintenance obligations on goods previously purchased by the contracting Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, from counterparties to rejected or repudiated Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases.

D. Insurance Policies

Notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan to the contrary, unless specifically rejected by order of the Bankruptcy Court, all of the Debtors’ insurance policies and any agreements, documents or instruments relating thereto, are continued pursuant to the Confirmation Order. Nothing contained in this Article V.D shall constitute or be deemed a waiver of any cause of action that the Debtors may hold against any entity, including, without limitation, the insurer, under any of the Debtors’ policies of insurance.

E. D&O Tail Coverage Policies

On the Effective Date, the Debtors shall assume the D&O Liability Insurance Policies, which provide tail coverage to the Debtors’ officers and directors. In addition, as of the Effective Date, the Debtors shall either assume such other directors and officers liability

insurance policies (if procured prior thereto), or enter into such other new directors and officers liability policies as the Debtors shall determine, in each case as acceptable to the Consenting Noteholders. Entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of the Debtors’ foregoing assumption of insurance policies. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Confirmation of the Plan shall not discharge, impair, or otherwise modify any indemnity obligations assumed by the assumption of the D&O Liability Insurance Policies, and each such indemnity obligation shall be deemed and treated as an Executory Contract that has been assumed by the Debtors under the Plan as to which no Proof of Claim need be Filed.

F. Retiree Benefits

Payments, if any, due to any person for the purpose of providing or reimbursing payments for retired employees and their spouses and dependents for medical, surgical, or hospital care benefits, or benefits in the event of sickness, accident, disability, or death under any plan, fund, or program (through the purchase of insurance otherwise) maintained or established in whole or in part by the Debtors prior to the Petition Date shall be continued for the duration of the period the Debtors have obligated themselves to provide such benefits. Nothing in the Plan will be construed as discharging, releasing, or relieving Constar, or its successor, including Reorganized Constar, or any party, in any capacity, from any liability for the minimum funding requirements or statutory premiums under Title IV of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, (“ERISA”) (29 U.S.C. section 1301 et seq.) or the Internal Revenue Code, 26 U.S.C. §§ 412 and 430 with respect to the CI Pension Plan (the “Pension Plan”) or the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (“PBGC”). The PBGC and Pension Plan will not be enjoined or precluded from seeking to enforce such liability as a result of any provision of the Plan or the Confirmation Order.

G. Intercompany Contracts, Contracts, and Leases Entered Into After the Petition Date

Intercompany contracts, contracts, and leases entered into after the Petition Date by any Debtor, and any Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases assumed by any Debtor, may be performed by the applicable Reorganized Debtor in the ordinary course of business.

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

Unless otherwise provided in the Plan, each Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease that is assumed shall include all modifications, amendments, supplements, restatements, or other agreements that in any manner affect such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease, and all Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases related thereto, if any, including all easements, licenses, permits, rights, privileges, immunities, options, rights of first refusal, and any other interests, unless any of the foregoing agreements has been previously rejected or repudiated or is rejected or repudiated under the Plan.

Modifications, amendments, supplements, and restatements to prepetition Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases that have been executed by the Debtors during the Chapter 11

Cases shall not be deemed to alter the prepetition nature of the Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease, or the validity, priority, or amount of any Claims that may arise in connection therewith.

I. Reservation of Rights

Neither the exclusion nor inclusion of any contract or lease in the Plan Supplement, nor anything contained in the Plan, shall constitute an admission by the Debtors that any such contract or lease is in fact an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease or that any Reorganized Debtor has any liability thereunder. If there is a dispute regarding whether a contract or lease is or was executory or unexpired at the time of assumption or rejection, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall have thirty (30) days following entry of a Final Order resolving such dispute to alter their treatment of such contract or lease.

J. Nonoccurrence of Effective Date

In the event that the Effective Date does not occur, the Bankruptcy Court shall retain jurisdiction with respect to any request to extend the deadline for assuming or rejecting Unexpired Leases pursuant to section 365(d)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code.

ARTICLE VI

PROVISIONS GOVERNING DISTRIBUTIONS

A. Timing of Distribution; Disputed Claims and Equity Interests

Except as otherwise provided herein or by order of the Bankruptcy Court, distributions to be made on the Effective Date on account of Claims that are Allowed as of the Effective Date and are entitled to receive distributions under the Plan shall be made on the Effective Date or as promptly thereafter as practicable. For purposes of calculating a Pro Rata share, the amount of the total Allowed Claims in each Class shall be calculated as if all unresolved Disputed Claims, as applicable, in each Class were Allowed in the full amount thereof.

B. Distributions of Shareholder Notes, New Overage Securities and New Common Stock

Distributions from Reorganized Constar of the Shareholder Notes, New Overage Securities, and New Common Stock

All distributions provided for in the Plan of Shareholder Notes, New Overage Securities, and New Common Stock to Holders of Allowed Secured Floating Rate Note Claims or Allowed Floating Rate Note Deficiency Claims, as applicable, shall be made by the Debtors to the Exchange Agent for delivery by the Exchange Agent to (i) the Floating Rate Note Indenture Trustee or (ii) with the prior written consent of the Floating Rate Note Indenture Trustee through the facilities of DTC for the benefit of the Holders of such Claims. Notwithstanding the provisions of Article IV.J above regarding the cancellation of the Floating Rate Note Indenture, the distribution provisions of the Floating Rate Note Indenture shall continue in effect solely to the extent necessary to authorize the distribution of the Shareholder Notes, New Overage Securities, and New Common Stock to Holders of Allowed Secured Floating Rate Note Claims

and Allowed Floating Rate Note Deficiency Claims, as applicable, pursuant to the Plan on account of Secured Floating Rate Note Claims and Floating Rate Note Deficiency Claims, as applicable. The Reorganized Debtors shall have no liability for any act or omission of the Exchange Agent, the Floating Rate Note Indenture Trustee or DTC.

Distributions from Exchange Agent to Holders of Allowed Floating Rate Note Claims

As soon as practicable after the Effective Date, Reorganized Constar shall cause the Exchange Agent to send a letter of transmittal to each Holder of an Allowed Floating Rate Note Claim advising such Holder of the effectiveness of the Plan and the instructions for delivering to the Floating Rate Note Indenture Trustee any Floating Rate Notes in exchange for the Shareholder Notes, New Overage Securities and New Common Stock, as applicable, issuable or distributable pursuant to the Plan. Such letter of transmittal shall specify that delivery of any Floating Rate Notes shall be affected, and that risk of loss and title thereto shall pass, only upon delivery of such Floating Rate Notes to the Floating Rate Note Indenture Trustee in accordance with the terms and conditions of such letter of transmittal. Such letter of transmittal shall be in such form and have such other provisions as Debtors or Floating Rate Note Indenture Trustee may reasonably require. Except to the extent the Floating Rate Notes are evidenced by electronic book entry in the facilities of DTC or as otherwise agreed to in writing by the Floating Rate Note Indenture Trustee, it shall be a condition to receipt of any distribution of Shareholder Notes, New Overage Securities or New Common Stock that the Holder of Floating Rate Notes surrender or be deemed to have surrendered, in accordance with Article VI.B.4, the Floating Rate Notes.

Distributions from Reorganized Constar of the New Common Stock to Holders of General Unsecured Claims (other than Holders of Floating Rate Note Deficiency Claims)

All distributions provided for in the Plan of New Common Stock to Holders of General Unsecured Claims (other than Holders of Floating Rate Note Deficiency Claims) shall be made by the Disbursing Agent or the Reorganized Debtor to the Exchange Agent for delivery by the Exchange Agent to the individual Holders of such General Unsecured Claims entitled to such distributions under this Plan. Distributions of New Common Stock to Holders of Floating Rate Note Deficiency Claims shall be made in accordance with Articles VI.B.1 and VI.B.2 above.

Lost or Stolen Floating Rate Notes

In addition to any requirements under the Indenture, or any related agreement, in the event any Floating Rate Notes that are not evidenced by electronic book entry in the facilities of DTC shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, then upon the delivery to the Exchange Agent of an affidavit attesting to the fact by the Holder of the Floating Rate Note Claim relating to such Floating Rate Note, and the posting by such Holder of a Floating Rate Note or the giving by such Holder of an indemnity as may be reasonably required by the Reorganized Debtors as indemnity against any claim that may be made against either of them with respect to such Floating Rate Note, the Exchange Agent shall distribute the Shareholder Notes, New Overage Securities, and/or New Common Stock, as applicable, and any interest payments or dividends and other

distributions with respect thereto, issuable or payable in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Floating Rate Note, pursuant to the provisions of this Plan. Upon compliance with this Article VI.B.4 by a Holder of an Allowed Claim evidenced by a Floating Rate Note, such Holder shall, for all purposes under the Plan, be deemed to have surrendered such Floating Rate Note.

Failure to Surrender Canceled Floating Rate Notes

Any Holder of a Floating Rate Note Claim that fails to surrender or is deemed to have failed to surrender any Floating Rate Notes required to be delivered hereunder, or fails to comply with the provisions of Article VI.B.4 hereof, shall (i) within 180 days after the Effective Date, be entitled to look only to the Reorganized Debtors for its distributions under the Plan, or (ii) within one (1) year after the Effective Date, have its Claim for a distribution pursuant to the Plan on account of such Floating Rate Note discharged and be forever barred from asserting any such Claim against the Reorganized Debtors or their property. In the event a Claim for a distribution pursuant to the Plan on account of such Floating Rate Note is discharged, such distribution shall be distributed on a Pro Rata basis to all other Holders of Floating Rate Note Claims. Any Holder of a Floating Rate Note Claim for which no physical certificate was issued to the Holder but which instead is held in electronic book entry pursuant to a global security held by DTC shall be deemed to have surrendered its Floating Rate Note upon the surrender of such global security by DTC.

Distribution Record Date

As of the close of business on the Distribution Record Date, the transfer registers for each of the Floating Rate Notes as maintained by DTC, the Debtors or their respective agents or participants, shall be deemed closed, and there shall be no further changes in the record Holders of any of the Floating Rate Notes. The Reorganized Debtors, the Exchange Agent, and the Floating Rate Note Indenture Trustee and their respective agents shall have no obligation to recognize the transfer of any Floating Rate Notes occurring after the Distribution Record Date, and shall be entitled for all purposes herein to recognize and deal only with those Holders of record as of the close of business on the Distribution Record Date.

Floating Rate Notes Issued in Different Name

If any Shareholder Note is to be issued or distributed in a name other than that in which the Floating Rate Notes surrendered in exchange therefor is registered, it shall be a condition of such exchange that (i) the Floating Rate Note so surrendered shall be transferable, and shall be properly assigned and endorsed, (ii) such transfer shall otherwise be proper and (iii) the Holder requesting such transfer shall pay all transfer or other taxes payable by reason of the foregoing and establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such taxes have been paid.

Fractional Shares

No fractional shares of New Common Stock or New Overage Securities, or Cash in lieu thereof, shall be distributed under the Plan. When any distribution pursuant to the Plan on account of an Allowed Claim would otherwise result in the issuance of a number of shares of New Common Stock or New Overage Securities that is not a whole number, the actual distribution of shares of New Common Stock or New Overage Securities, as applicable, shall be

rounded as follows: (i) fractions of 1/2 or greater shall be rounded to the next higher whole number; and (ii) fractions of less than 1/2 shall be rounded to the next lower whole number. The total number of shares of New Common Stock and New Overage Securities, as applicable, to be distributed to Holders of Allowed Claims shall be adjusted as necessary to account for the rounding provided in this Article.

Fractional Notes

No fractional Shareholder Notes, or Cash in lieu thereof, shall be distributed under the Plan. When any distribution pursuant to the Plan on account of an Allowed Claim would otherwise result in the issuance of Shareholder Notes that is not in a denomination of $1,000, the actual distribution of Shareholder Notes shall be rounded as follows: (i) fractions of 1/2 or greater shall be rounded to the next higher $1,000 denomination; and (ii) fractions of less than 1/2 shall be rounded to the next lower $1,000 denomination. The total amount of Shareholder Notes to be distributed to Holders of Allowed Claims shall be adjusted as necessary to account for the rounding provided in this Article.

10.

Manner of Distributions

Subject to Article VI.B.3 above, in the sole discretion of the Debtors with respect to distributions to Holders of General Unsecured Claims other than the Holders of Floating Rate Note Deficiency Claims or in the sole discretion of the Floating Rate Note Indenture Trustee with respect to Holders of Secured Floating Rate Note Claims and Floating Rate Note Deficiency Claims, any distribution of the New Common Stock, New Overage Securities or the Shareholder Notes, as applicable, under this Plan may be made by means of the book entry transfer facilities of DTC as an alternative to delivery of physical certificates or instruments representing New Common Stock, New Overage Securities or Shareholder Notes, as applicable. Any distribution made pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall be made to the account of the Holder of the Allowed Claim entitled to receive such distributions hereunder or to the account of an agent authorized to receive securities on behalf of such Holder.

C. Reserves and Distribution Thereof

On the Effective Date, if any New Common Stock is distributable to Holders of General Unsecured Claims under the Plan, the Debtor shall reserve from distribution a number of shares of New Common Stock equal to the number of shares of New Common Stock that would be distributed to Holders of Disputed General Unsecured Claims if such Claims were Allowed Claims (collectively, the “Reserved Shares”). The Reserved Shares will be distributed to the Holders of Disputed Claims to the extent such Claims become Allowed Claims in accordance with the provisions of Article VI.D and to the extent such Disputed Claims are Allowed for in an amount less than the amount for which New Common Stock was reserved, to the other Holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims, as applicable, at the times provided for in Article VI.D.

D. Undeliverable and Unclaimed Distributions

Delivery of Distributions

All property under the Plan to be distributed by mail shall be sent to the latest mailing address filed with the Bankruptcy Court for the party entitled thereto, or, if no such mailing address has been so filed, the mailing address reflected in the Debtor’s books and records or the mailing address of the corresponding nominee or participant of the DTC for such party.

Undeliverable Distributions

If any distribution to the Holder of an Allowed Claim is returned as undeliverable, no further distributions shall be made to such Holder unless and until the Reorganized Debtors are notified in writing of such Holder’s then-current address. Undeliverable distributions made by the Reorganized Debtors or the Exchange Agent shall be returned to the Reorganized Debtors and shall remain in the possession of the Reorganized Debtors pursuant to this Article until such time as a distribution becomes deliverable. The Reorganized Debtors shall have no obligation to attempt to locate any Holder with regard to whom a distribution has been returned as undeliverable, forwarding time expired or similar indication. Undeliverable distributions shall not be entitled to any interest, dividends or other accruals of any kind.

Distributions After the Effective Date

Subject to Articles VI.A and VI.B hereof, within twenty (20) days after the end of each six month anniversary following the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall make all distributions, as provided herein or in the Confirmation Order, that become deliverable during the preceding six months, including payments to (a) Holders of Allowed Claims who become entitled to additional distributions as a result of the disallowance or reduction of a Disputed Claim, and (b) Holders of Disputed Claims that become Allowed Claims, provided however, if less than 10,000 shares of New Common Stock are available for distribution, the Reorganized Debtor shall not be required to make a subsequent distribution unless such distribution will be the final distribution.

E. Failure to Claim Undeliverable Distributions

Any Holder of an Allowed Claim that does not assert a Claim pursuant to the Plan for an undeliverable distribution within one year after the Effective Date for distributions made on or about the Effective Date and with respect to distributions to be made after the Effective Date, one year after the date of such a subsequent distribution, shall have its Claim for such undeliverable distribution discharged and shall be forever barred from asserting any such Claim against the Reorganized Debtor or its property. In such cases: (i) any Cash held for distribution on account of such Claims shall be property of the Reorganized Debtor, free of any restrictions thereon; and (ii) any Shareholder Notes, New Overage Securities and New Common Stock held for distribution on account of such Claims shall be canceled and of no further force or effect. Nothing contained in the Plan or Confirmation Order shall require the Reorganized Debtors, the Exchange Agent, the Floating Rate Note Indenture Trustees or the Disbursing Agent to attempt to locate any Holder of an Allowed Claim or Allowed Equity interest.

F. Compliance with Tax Requirements/Allocations

In connection with the Plan, to the extent applicable, each Reorganized Debtor shall comply with all tax withholding and reporting requirements imposed on it by any Governmental Unit, and all distributions pursuant hereto shall be subject to such withholding and reporting requirements. Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, the Reorganized Debtors and the Disbursing Agent shall be authorized to take all actions necessary or appropriate to comply with such withholding and reporting requirements, including reserving sufficient cash or taking necessary draws under the DIP Facility to generate sufficient funds to pay applicable withholding taxes, withholding distributions pending receipt of information necessary to facilitate such distributions or establishing any other mechanisms they believe are reasonable and appropriate. The Reorganized Debtors reserve the right to allocate all distributions made under the Plan in compliance with all applicable wage garnishments, alimony, child support and other spousal awards, liens and encumbrances. For tax purposes, distributions in full or partial satisfaction of Allowed Claims shall be allocated first to the principal amount of Allowed Claims, with any excess allocated to unpaid interest that accrued on such Claims.

G. Compensation and Reimbursement to Exchange Agent

The Exchange Agent providing services related to distributions pursuant to the Plan shall receive from the Reorganized Debtors, without further Bankruptcy Court approval, reasonable compensation for such services and reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with such services. These payments shall be made on terms agreed to with the Reorganized Debtor.

H. Setoffs

Except with respect to Secured Credit Facility Claims and Floating Rate Note Claims, the Reorganized Debtors may, pursuant to section 553 of the Bankruptcy Code or applicable non-bankruptcy law, set off against any Allowed Claim and the distributions to be made pursuant to the Plan on account of such Claim (before any distribution is made on account of such Claim), the claims, rights and Causes of Action of any nature that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors may hold against the Holder of such Allowed Claim; provided that neither the failure to effect such a setoff nor the allowance of any Claim hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors of any such claims, rights and Causes of Action that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors may possess against such Holder.

I. Claims Paid or Payable by Third Parties

Claims Paid by Third Parties

The Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall reduce in full a Claim, and such Claim shall be disallowed without a Claims objection having to be filed and without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court, to the extent that the Holder of such Claim receives payment in full on account of to the extent a Holder of a Claim receives a distribution on account of such Claim and receives payment from a party that is not a Debtor or Reorganized Debtor on account of such Claim, such Holder shall, within two weeks of receipt thereof, repay or return the distribution to the Reorganized Debtors, to the extent the

Holder’s total recovery on account of such Claim from the third party and under the Plan exceeds the amount of such Claim as of the date of any such distribution under the Plan. If the Debtors become aware of the payment by a third party, the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, will send a notice of wrongful payment to such party requesting return of any excess payments and advising the recipient of the provisions of the Plan requiring turnover of excess estate funds. The failure of such Holder to timely repay or return such distribution shall result in the Holder owing the Reorganized Debtors annualized interest at the Federal Judgment Rate on such amount owed for each Business Day after the two-week grace period specified above until the amount is repaid.

Claims Payable by Third Parties

No distributions under the Plan shall be made on account of an Allowed Claim that is payable pursuant to one of the Debtors’ insurance policies until the Holder of such Allowed Claim has exhausted all remedies with respect to such insurance policy. To the extent that one or more of the Debtors’ insurers agrees to satisfy in full or in part a Claim (if and to the extent adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction), then immediately upon such insurers’ agreement, the applicable portion of such Claim may be expunged without a Claims objection having to be filed and without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

Applicability of Insurance Policies

Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, distributions to Holders of Allowed Claims shall be in accordance with the provisions of any applicable insurance policy. Nothing contained in the Plan shall constitute or be deemed a waiver of any Cause of Action that the Debtors or any person or entity may hold against any other entity, including insurers, under any policies of insurance, nor shall anything contained herein constitute or be deemed a waiver by such insurers of any defenses, including coverage defenses, held by such insurers.

J. Allocation of Distributions Between Principal and Interest

To the extent that any Allowed Claim entitled to a distribution under the Plan is comprised of indebtedness and accrued but unpaid interest thereon, such distribution shall be allocated to the principal amount (as determined for federal income tax purposes) of the Claim first, and then to accrued but unpaid interest.

ARTICLE VII

PROCEDURES FOR RESOLVING CONTINGENT,
UNLIQUIDATED, AND DISPUTED CLAIMS

A. Prosecution of Objections to Claims

The Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall have the exclusive authority to File, settle, compromise, withdraw, or litigate to judgment any objections to Claims as permitted under the Plan. From and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors may settle or compromise any Disputed Claim without approval of the Bankruptcy Court. The Debtors also

reserve the right to resolve any Disputed Claim outside the Bankruptcy Court under applicable governing law.

B. Procedures Regarding Disputed Claims

Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or by other order of the Bankruptcy Court, Holders of Claims shall be required to File proofs of claim by the Bar Date. After the Bar Date, the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, will review all the Claims, and reserve the right to object to any Claim that is entitled, or deemed to be entitled, to a distribution under the Plan or is rendered Unimpaired under the Plan. All such objections will be litigated to Final Order; provided, however, that the Debtors may compromise, settle, withdraw, or resolve by any other method approved by the Bankruptcy Court any objections to Claims.

Any Debtor or Reorganized Debtor, as applicable, may, at any time, request that the Bankruptcy Court estimate any contingent or unliquidated Claim pursuant to section 502(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, regardless of whether such Debtor has previously objected to such Claim or whether the Bankruptcy Court has ruled on any objection, and the Bankruptcy Court will retain jurisdiction to estimate any Claim at any time during litigation concerning any objection to any Claim, including during the pendency of any appeal related to any such objection. In the event the Bankruptcy Court estimates any contingent or unliquidated Claim, that estimated amount will constitute either the Allowed amount of such Claim or a maximum limitation on such Claim, as determined by the Bankruptcy Court. If the estimated amount constitutes a maximum limitation on such Claim, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, may elect to pursue any supplemental proceedings to object to any ultimate payment on such Claim. All of the aforementioned objection, estimation, and resolution procedures are cumulative and are not necessarily exclusive of one another. Claims may be estimated and thereafter resolved by any mechanism approved by the Bankruptcy Court.

C. Allowance of Claims

Except as expressly provided herein or any order entered in the Chapter 11 Cases prior to the Effective Date (including the Confirmation Order), no Claim shall be deemed Allowed unless and until such Claim is deemed Allowed under the Bankruptcy Code, under the Plan, or the Bankruptcy Court enters a Final Order in the Chapter 11 Cases allowing such Claim under section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code. Except as expressly provided in any order entered in the Chapter 11 Cases prior to the Effective Date (including the Confirmation Order), the Reorganized Debtors after Confirmation will have and retain any and all rights and defenses the Debtors had with respect to any Claim as of the Petition Date. All Claims of any Entity that owes money to the Debtors shall be disallowed unless and until such Entity pays, in full, the amount it owes the Debtors.

D. No Distributions Pending Allowance

Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if any portion of a Claim is a Disputed Claim, no payment or distribution provided under the Plan shall be made on account of such Claim unless and until such Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim.

E. Distributions After Allowance

To the extent that a Disputed Claim ultimately becomes an Allowed Claim, distributions (if any) shall be made to the Holder of such Allowed Claim in accordance with the provisions of the Plan.

F. Controversy Concerning Impairment

If a controversy arises as to whether any Claim, or a Class of Claims, are Impaired Classes under the Plan, the Bankruptcy Court shall, after notice and a hearing, determine such controversy before the Effective Date.

ARTICLE VIII

SETTLEMENT, RELEASE, INJUNCTION, AND RELATED PROVISIONS

A. Discharge

Upon the Effective Date, in consideration of the distributions to be made under the Plan and except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan (including, (a) that any of the Debtors’ obligations under the DIP Facility that are not paid in Cash in full on or prior to the Effective Date as required under the Plan are not discharged and (b) that any of the Debtors’ obligations under the Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases that are assumed pursuant to Article V of the Plan (other than Cure Claims determined and paid pursuant to Article V) are not discharged), each Holder (as well as any trustees and agents on behalf of each Holder) of a Claim or Equity Interest, and any Affiliate of such Holder shall be deemed to have forever waived, released and discharged the Debtors, to the fullest extent permitted by section 1141 of the Bankruptcy Code, of and from any and all Claims, Equity Interests, rights and liabilities that arose prior to the Effective Date. Upon the Effective Date, all such persons shall be forever precluded and enjoined, pursuant to section 524 of the Bankruptcy Code, from prosecuting or asserting any such discharged Claim against or terminated Equity Interest in the Debtors.

B. Subordinated Claims

The allowance, classification, and treatment of all Allowed Claims and Equity Interests and the respective distributions and treatments under the Plan take into account and conform to the relative priority and rights of the Claims and Equity Interests in each Class in connection with any contractual, legal, and equitable subordination rights relating thereto, whether arising under general principles of equitable subordination, section 510(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, and including, but not limited to, the Section 510(b) Claims, or otherwise. Pursuant to section 510 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Reorganized Debtors reserve the right to re-classify any Allowed Claim or Equity Interest in accordance with any contractual, legal, or equitable subordination relating thereto.

C. Compromise and Settlement of Claims and Controversies

Pursuant to section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rule 9019 and in consideration for the distributions and other benefits provided pursuant to the Plan, the

provisions of the Plan shall constitute a good faith compromise of all Claims, Equity Interests, and controversies relating to the contractual, legal, and subordination rights that a Holder of a Claim may have with respect to any Allowed Claim or Equity Interest, or any distribution to be made on account of such an Allowed Claim or Equity Interest. The entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of the compromise or settlement of all such Claims, Equity Interests, controversies, as well as a finding by the Bankruptcy Court that such compromise or settlement is in the best interests of the Debtors, their Estates, and Holders of Claims and Equity Interests and is fair, equitable, and reasonable. In accordance with the provisions of the Plan, pursuant to section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rule 9019(a), without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court, after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors may compromise and settle Claims against them and Causes of Action against other Entities.

After the Effective Date, no Professional employed pursuant to sections 327, 331, 363 and 1103 of the Bankruptcy Code shall be entitled to any compensation for services rendered after the Effective Date without the express authority of the Reorganized Debtors. Upon the Effective Date, and unless otherwise agreed to by the Reorganized Debtors, the retention of all such Professionals shall be terminated automatically without further order of the Bankruptcy Court, except for the limited purpose of filing any remaining applications for reimbursement of reasonable fees and expenses.

B. Professional Compensation and Reimbursement Claims

Except as otherwise provided herein, all final requests for payment of Claims of a Professional for services rendered or reimbursement of expenses incurred through and including the Effective Date under sections 330, 331, 503(b)(2), 503(b)(3), 503(b)(4) or 503(b)(5) of the Bankruptcy Code shall be Filed no later than thirty (30) days after the Effective Date. After notice and a hearing in accordance with the procedures established by the Bankruptcy Code and prior Bankruptcy Court orders, the Allowed amounts of such Professional Claims shall be determined by the Bankruptcy Court, and paid in Cash in full under the Plan within thirty (30) days after the date on which the order approving such Professional Claims becomes a Final Order.

The remaining amount of Claims owing to the Professionals shall be paid in Cash to such Professionals by the Reorganized Debtors from the Professional Fee Escrow Account when such Claims are Allowed by a Bankruptcy Court order and in accordance with the treatment afforded to Class 1 Claims under the Plan. When all Claims of Professionals have been paid in full, amounts remaining in the Professional Fee Escrow Account, if any, shall be paid to the Reorganized Debtors.

If a Professional does not provide an estimate, the Reorganized Debtors may estimate the unbilled fees and expenses of such Professional; provided, however, that such estimate shall not be considered an admission with respect to the fees and expenses of such Professional. The total amount so estimated as of the Effective Date shall comprise the Professional Fee Reserve Amount.

Except as otherwise specifically provided in the Plan, from and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall, in the ordinary course of business and without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court, pay in Cash the reasonable legal, professional, or other fees and expenses related to implementation and Consummation of the

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements, provisions and covenants contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I
THE NOTES

1.1 Sale and Purchase of Notes.

(a) Issuance. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Issuers will, jointly and severally, issue and sell to the Purchasers, and the Purchasers will purchase from the Issuers, Notes in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed the Aggregate Note Purchase Commitment of $55,000,000. The Issuers will, jointly and severally, issue and sell to each of the Purchasers and, subject to the terms and conditions hereof and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of the Note Parties contained herein and of the Note Parties and their Subsidiaries contained in the other Note Documents, and subject to satisfaction of the conditions specified in Section 2, the Purchasers will purchase from the Issuers, on the Closing Date, Notes in an aggregate amount equal to the lesser of (x) $38,000,000 and (y) the amount permitted in the Interim Order. On each Note Purchase Date thereafter, which shall occur no more frequently than one time in each calendar week, the Issuers will, jointly and severally, issue and sell to each of the Purchasers and, subject to the terms and conditions hereof and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of the Note Parties contained herein and of the Note Parties and their Subsidiaries contained in the other Note Documents, and subject to satisfaction of the conditions specified in Section 2, the Purchasers will purchase from the Issuers, on such Note Purchase Date, an aggregate principal amount of Notes equal to the least of (x) the amount specified in the related Notice of Note Purchase Request, (y) the amount permitted by the Order and (z) the amount specified in the Approved Budget. Each Purchaser’s obligation to purchase Notes on the Closing Date and each Note Purchase Date shall be several and not joint and shall equal such Purchaser’s Commitment Percentage of the Notes to be purchased on such date. The Note Parties and the Purchasers agree that the values ascribed to the Notes (which values shall be used by the Note Parties and the Purchasers, as well as any subsequent holder of any of the Securities, for all purposes, including the preparation of tax returns) shall be the face amount of such Notes (whether evidenced on actual Notes or as set forth on the Register as evidence of the Obligations). The Notes issued on the Closing Date shall be specified as the A-1 Notes, and the Notes issued on each subsequent Note Purchase Date shall be numbered sequentially (▇-▇, ▇-▇, etc...), and each of the series of Notes shall have identical terms and the same treatment (pari passu) hereunder other than having a different date of issuance.

(b) Closing. The closing of the sale and purchase of the A-1 Notes to be issued on the Closing Date hereunder (the “Closing”) shall take place at the office of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇ LLP, New York, New York, on January [10], 2011 (the “Closing Date”) not later than 1:00 p.m. New York time (the Purchasers’ reinvestment deadline). At the Closing:

(i) the Issuers will deliver to each Purchaser requesting actual A-1 Notes (rather than relying on the Register as evidence of the Obligation), the A-1 Notes to be purchased by such Purchaser on the Closing Date, dated the Closing Date, bearing interest from the Closing Date, payable to the holder thereof against payment of the purchase price thereof to (or for the benefit of) the Issuers in immediately available funds in accordance with the wire instructions set forth on Exhibit 3 attached hereto; and

(ii) If at the Closing, the Issuers shall fail to tender the Notes to be delivered to any Purchaser so requesting as provided herein, or if at the Closing any of the conditions specified in Section 2 shall not have been fulfilled (unless waived by the Purchasers), each Purchaser shall, at its election, be relieved of all further obligations under this Agreement, without thereby waiving any other rights such Purchaser may have by reason of such failure or such non-fulfillment. Payment by the Purchasers of the aggregate purchase price of the A-1 Notes at the Closing shall constitute evidence that all of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2 have been satisfied.

1.2 Procedure for Additional Note Purchases.

(a) From and after the Closing Date, the Issuers may request purchases of additional Notes, which together with all other Notes previously issued does not exceed the Aggregate Note Purchase Commitment, by providing the Purchasers with the Issuer Representative’s irrevocable written notice delivered to Agent substantially in the form of a Notice of Note Purchase Request or in a writing in any other form acceptable to Agent, which notice must be received by Agent prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date which is three (3) Business Days prior to the requested Note Purchase Date. Such Notice of Note Purchase Request shall specify:

(i) the amount of the Notes to be issued (which shall be an amount not to exceed the lesser of (x) the amount set forth in the Approved Budget and (y) the amount permitted in the Order); and

(ii) the requested Note Purchase Date, which shall be a Business Day.

(b) Upon receipt of a Notice of Note Purchase Request, Agent will promptly notify each Purchaser of such Notice, of the aggregate principal amount of Notes proposed to be issued and of the amount of such Purchaser’s Commitment Percentage of the Notes to be issued on such Note Purchase Date.

(c) Unless the Purchasers are otherwise directed in writing by the Issuers, the proceeds of each sale of Notes after the Closing Date will be made available to the Issuer Representative by the Purchasers by wire transfer of such amount to the Issuer Representative pursuant to the wire transfer instructions specified on the signature page hereto. If any Purchaser fails to purchase the Notes to be purchased by such Purchaser and remit the purchase price to the Issuer Representative on such Note Purchase Date, unless such Notes are subsequently purchased by such Purchaser, the other Purchasers which are not Non-Funding Purchasers shall be required to purchase, no later than 3 Business Days after such Note Purchase Date, such Notes on behalf of such Non-Funding Purchaser; provided however, that such obligation of each Purchaser shall be several and limited to (i) the portion of Notes which have not been purchased at such Note Purchase Date multiplied by (ii) the percentage equal to their Note Purchase Commitment divided by the difference between the aggregate Note Purchase Commitments of all Purchasers and the Note Purchase Commitment of the Non-Funding Purchasers; provided further, that notwithstanding any of the foregoing, no Purchaser shall be required (x) to pay any purchase price in excess of its Note Purchase Commitment or (y) to purchase any Notes on a date on which the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2.2 have not been satisfied.

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) there shall be not more than one (1) Note Purchase Date in any calendar week, (ii) there shall be no Note Purchase Date on which Notes with an aggregate amount of less than $3,000,000 shall be issued, and (iii) no Notes shall be issued during any week when the Approved Budget does not provide for an issuance.

(e) The Issuers will deliver to each Purchaser so requesting actual Notes (rather than relying on the Register as evidence of the Obligations), the Notes to be purchased by such Purchaser on any subsequent Note Purchase Date, bearing interest from the applicable Note Purchase Date, payable to the holder against payment of the purchase price thereof to (or for the benefit of) the Issuer in immediately available funds in accordance with the wire instructions set forth on Exhibit 1.1 attached hereto.

(f) If on any Note Purchase Date, Holdings or the Issuers shall fail to tender the Notes to be delivered to any Purchaser so requesting as provided herein, or if at such subsequent Note Purchase Date any of the conditions specified in Section 2 shall not have been fulfilled (unless waived by the Purchasers), each Purchaser shall, at its election, be relieved of all further obligations under this Agreement to purchase Notes, without thereby waiving any other rights such Purchaser may have by reason of such failure or such non-fulfillment. Payment by the Purchasers of the aggregate purchase price of the Notes at such subsequent Note Purchase Date shall constitute evidence that all of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2 have been satisfied.

1.3 Interest.

(a) Subject to subsections 1.3(c) and 1.3(d), each Note shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the date when made at a rate per annum equal to LIBOR plus the Applicable Margin. Each determination of an interest rate by Agent shall be conclusive and binding on the Issuers and the Purchasers in the absence of manifest error. All computations of fees and interest payable under this Agreement shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed. Interest and fees shall accrue during each period during which interest or such fees are computed from the first day thereof to the last day thereof.

(b) Interest on each Note shall be paid in arrears on each Interest Payment Date. Interest shall also be paid on the date of any payment or prepayment of Notes in full.

(c) Automatically while any Event of Default exists, the Issuers shall pay interest (after as well as before entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by law) on the Notes and all Obligations under the Note Documents from and after the date of occurrence of such Event of Default, at a rate per annum which is determined by adding two percent (2.00%) per annum to the interest rate then in effect for such Notes (which, for the avoidance of doubt, consists of the Applicable Margin then in effect for such Notes plus LIBOR). All such interest shall be payable on demand of Agent or the Required Purchasers.

(d) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of the Issuers hereunder shall be subject to the limitation that payments of interest shall not be required, for any period for which interest is computed hereunder, to the extent (but only to the extent) that contracting for or receiving such payment by the respective Purchaser would be contrary to the provisions of any law applicable to such Purchaser limiting the highest rate of interest which may be lawfully contracted for, charged or received by such Purchaser, and in such event the Issuers shall pay such Purchaser interest at the highest rate permitted by applicable law (“Maximum Lawful Rate”); provided, however, that if at any time thereafter the rate of interest payable hereunder is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, the Issuers shall continue to pay interest hereunder at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received by Agent, on behalf of Purchasers, is equal to the total interest that would have been received had the interest payable hereunder been (but for the operation of this paragraph) the interest rate payable since the Closing Date as otherwise provided in this Agreement.

1.4 Note Accounts.

(a) Agent, on behalf of the Purchasers, shall record on its books and records the amount of each Note issued, the interest rate applicable, all payments of principal and interest thereon and the principal balance thereof from time to time outstanding. Agent shall deliver to the Issuer Representative on a monthly basis a statement setting forth such record for the immediately preceding calendar month. Such record shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive evidence of the amount of the Notes issued to the Purchasers and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so, or any failure to deliver such note statement shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Issuers hereunder (and under any Note) to pay any amount owing with respect to the Notes or provide the basis for any claim against Agent.

(b) Agent, acting as a non-fiduciary agent of the Issuers solely for tax purposes and solely with respect to the actions described in this subsection 1.4(b), shall establish and maintain at its address referred to in Section 9.2 (or at such other address as Agent may notify the Issuer Representative) (A) a record of ownership (the “Register”) in which Agent agrees to register by book entry the interests (including any rights to receive payment hereunder) of Agent and each Purchaser, each of their obligations under this Agreement, and any assignment of any such interest, obligation or right and (B) accounts in the Register in accordance with its usual practice in which it shall record (1) the names and addresses of the Purchasers, (2) the Commitment of each Purchaser, (3) the amount of each Note, (4) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or paid and (5) any other payment received by Agent from the Issuers and its application to the Obligations.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Notes are registered obligations, the right, title and interest of the Purchasers in and to such Notes shall be transferable only upon notation of such transfer in the Register and no assignment thereof shall be effective until recorded therein. This Section 1.4 and Section 9.9 shall be construed so that the Notes are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2)of the Code.

(d) The Note Parties, Agent and the Purchasers shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Purchaser for all purposes of this Agreement. Information contained in the Register with respect to any Purchaser shall be available for access by the Issuer Representative, Agent or such Purchaser during normal business hours and from time to time upon at least one Business Day’s prior notice. No Purchaser shall, in such capacity, have access to or be otherwise permitted to review any information in the Register other than information with respect to such Purchaser unless otherwise agreed by Agent.

(e) Whenever any Note shall be surrendered for transfer or exchange, if so requested by the relevant Purchaser, within 7 Business Days after the receipt of written notice of such transfer, the Issuers, at their expense will execute and deliver in exchange therefor a new Note or Notes (in such denominations and registered in such name or names as may be requested by the holder of the surrendered Note or Notes), in the same aggregate unpaid principal amount and same series or tranche in the case of the Notes, as that of the Note or Notes so surrendered. In connection with the foregoing, the Note Parties shall take such other actions reasonably requested by a holder of such Note in order to effect such any applicable transfer, registration or exchange.

1.5 [Reserved].

1.6 [Reserved].

1.7 Voluntary Prepayment of the Notes. The Issuers may at any time upon at least two (2) Business Days’ (or such shorter period as is acceptable to Agent) prior written notice to Agent prepay or repay the Notes in whole or in part in increments of at least $100,000. All such prepayments and repayments shall be applied without penalty or premium, except as provided in Sections 1.9 and 10.4

1.8 Mandatory Prepayments of the Notes.

(a) Maturity Date. The Issuers shall repay to the Purchasers in full on the Maturity Date the aggregate principal amount of the Notes outstanding on the Maturity Date; provided, that if on the Maturity Date, (i) there is no Event of Default that has occurred and is continuing and (ii) the Approved Plan has been effectuated pursuant to the Confirmation Order, all Obligations and other obligations under the Facility other than an amount specified in the Approved Plan which shall be up to $15 million (such amount, the “Facility Roll-Over Amount”) are paid in full in cash, the Purchasers shall accept as payment for the Facility Roll-Over Amount secured notes or term loans issued by the reorganized Issuers on terms set forth in the Approved Plan and such other terms as are consented to by the Agent and the Supermajority Purchasers (the “DIP Roll-Over Facility”).

(b) Asset Sales. Following the receipt by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries of any Net Asset Sale Proceeds (other than Net Asset Sale Proceeds resulting from dispositions under Section 5.2(a)), immediately on such date, the Issuers shall prepay the Notes in an aggregate amount equal to such Net Asset Sale Proceeds; provided, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Issuers shall have the option, directly or through one or more of its Subsidiaries, to invest up to $5,000,000 of such Net Asset Sale Proceeds within 180 days of receipt thereof in assets of the general type used in the business of Holdings and its Subsidiaries and, if such assets are long term assets, the replacement assets shall be long term assets, and provided that the Lien of the Agent on such replacement assets shall have the same priority as the assets sold.

(c) Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds. Following the receipt by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, or Agent as loss payee, of any Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds, Company shall immediately prepay the Notes as set forth in Section 1.8(e) in an aggregate amount equal to such Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds; provided, (i) so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and (ii) to the extent that aggregate Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds do not exceed $2,000,000, Issuers shall have the option, directly or through one or more of its Subsidiaries to invest such Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds within 180 days of receipt thereof in the repair, restoration or replacement of the applicable assets giving rise to such Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds which, in the case of the replacement of such assets, in assets of the general type used in the business of Issuers and its Subsidiaries and, if such assets are long term assets, the replacement assets shall be long term assets, and provided that the Lien of the Agent on such replacement assets shall have the same priority as the assets subject to such condemnation or casualty event

(d) Prepayment Certificate. Concurrently with any prepayment of the Notes pursuant to Section 1.8(a)-(c), Issuer Representative shall deliver to Agent a certificate of the chief financial officer of Issuer Representative demonstrating the calculation of the amount of the applicable net proceeds, or other applicable financial tests or proceeds giving rise to the prepayment, as the case may be. In the event that Issuer Representative shall subsequently determine that the actual amount received exceeded the amount set forth in such certificate, Issuer Representative shall promptly make an additional prepayment of the Notes in an amount equal to such excess, and Issuer Representative shall concurrently therewith deliver to Agent a certificate of the chief financial officer of Issuer Representative demonstrating the derivation of such excess.

(e) Application of Prepayments.

(i) Any voluntary prepayment of any Note pursuant to Section 1.7 shall be applied to repay outstanding Notes on a pro rata basis (in accordance with the respective outstanding principal amounts thereof).

(ii) Any mandatory prepayment of any Notes pursuant to Section 1.8 shall be applied as follows:

first, to the payment of all unpaid expenses and fees owing to Agent and the Purchasers to the full extent thereof;

second, to the payment of any accrued interest on the amounts referred to in clause first, if any;

third, to the payment of any other accrued interest on the Notes; and

fourth, to prepay Notes on a pro rata basis (in accordance with the respective outstanding principal amounts thereof); and

fifth, to repay any other Obligations.

1.9 Fees.

(a) Agent Fees. The Issuers shall pay to Agent, for Agent’s own account, a (x) non-refundable agency fee equal to $50,000 per annum, payable annually in advance on the Closing Date for the twelve-month period following the Closing Date and on each anniversary of the Closing Date until all Obligations have been paid in full and (y) an arrangement fee on the Closing Date, in an amount equal to 1.00% of the Aggregate Note Purchase Commitment, which fee shall be in all respects fully earned, due and payable on the Closing Date and non-refundable and non-creditable thereafter.

(b) Unused Commitment Fee. The Issuers shall pay to Agent a fee, for the benefit of the Purchasers (the “Unused Commitment Fee”) in an amount equal to the Monthly Average Unused Amount multiplied by two percent (2.0%) per annum; provided that no amount shall be due in respect of the Commitment Percentage of any Non-Funding Purchaser. Such fee shall be payable monthly in arrears on the first day of the calendar month following the date hereof and the first day of each calendar month thereafter. The Unused Commitment Fee shall accrue at all times from and after mutual execution and delivery of this Agreement until the Maturity Date.

(c) Upfront Fees. The Issuers agrees to pay on the Closing Date to each Purchaser party to this Agreement as a Purchaser on the Closing Date, as fee compensation for the purchase by such Purchaser of the Notes, an upfront fee in an amount equal to 2.00% of such Purchaser’s original Note Purchase Commitment. Such upfront fee shall be in all respects fully earned, due and payable on the Closing Date and non-refundable and non-creditable thereafter.

(d) Prepayment Fee. If, at any time prior to the Maturity Date, any Issuer prepays any of the Notes or reduces the Aggregate Note Purchase Commitment, whether voluntarily or involuntarily and whether before or after acceleration of the Obligations, the Issuers shall pay to Agent, for the pro rata benefit of the applicable Purchasers, as liquidated damages and compensation for the costs of being prepared to make funds available hereunder an amount equal to four percent (4.0%) multiplied by (x) the principal amount of the Notes prepaid or (y) the Aggregate Note Purchase Commitment which is reduced. The Note Parties agree that the percentages set forth in this section are a reasonable calculation of Purchasers’ lost profits in view of the difficulties and impracticality of determining actual damages resulting from a prepayment and/or an early repayment of the Notes. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, such prepayment fee shall be waived if (i) the Facility is repaid with the Facility Roll-Over Amount as set forth in Section 1.8(a) and otherwise in cash in connection with the Approved Plan or (ii) the Issuers prepay the Notes in accordance with Sections 1.8(b) or 1.8(c).

(e) Wire Transfer Fee. The Issuers shall pay a $25 wire transfer fee in connection with each wire transfer made by the Agent or any Purchaser to the Issuers pursuant to this Agreement.

1.10 Payments by any Issuer.

(a) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by each Note Party on account of principal, interest, fees and other amounts required hereunder shall be made without set-off, recoupment, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, shall, except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in the Control Agreements, be made to Agent (for the ratable account of the Persons entitled thereto) at the address for payment specified in the signature page hereof in relation to Agent (or such other address as Agent may from time to time specify in accordance with Section 9.2), including payments utilizing the ACH system, and shall be made in Dollars and by wire transfer or ACH transfer in immediately available funds (which shall be the exclusive means of payment hereunder), no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date due. Any payment which is received by Agent later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) may in Agent’s discretion be deemed to have been received on the immediately succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. The Issuers and each other Note Party hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct the application during the continuance of an Event of Default of any and all payments in respect of any Obligation and any proceeds of Collateral.

(b) If any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be.

(c) During the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent shall apply any and all payments received by Agent (including proceeds from the realization of Collateral) in respect of any Obligation in accordance with clauses first through sixth below. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary (but subject to the terms of Section 1.11(b)), all amounts collected or received by Agent after any or all of the Obligations have been accelerated (so long as such acceleration has not been rescinded), including proceeds of Collateral, shall be applied as follows:

first, to payment of costs and expenses, including Attorney Costs, of Agent payable or reimbursable by the Note Parties under the Note Documents;

second, to payment of Attorney Costs of Purchasers payable or reimbursable by any Issuer under this Agreement;

third, to payment of all accrued unpaid interest on the Obligations and fees (including, without limitation, the prepayment fee pursuant to Section 1.9(d)) owed to Agent and Purchasers;

fourth, to payment of principal of the Obligations;

fifth, to payment of any other amounts owing constituting Obligations; and

sixth, any remainder shall be for the account of and paid to whoever may be lawfully entitled thereto.

In carrying out the foregoing, (i) amounts received shall be applied in the numerical order provided until exhausted prior to the application to the next succeeding category and (ii) each of the Purchasers or other Persons entitled to payment shall receive an amount equal to its pro rata share of amounts available to be applied pursuant to clauses third, fourth and fifth above (which share shall take into account, and be adjusted for, any non-pro rata Notes purchased pursuant to the terms hereof while any Purchaser constitutes a Non-Funding Purchaser or as a consequence of any Purchaser being a Non-Funding Purchaser).

1.11 Accountings.

(a) Agent shall have no obligation to advance funds on behalf of any Purchaser or to relieve any Purchaser from its obligation to fulfill its Note Purchase Commitment hereunder or to prejudice any rights that Agent, any Purchaser or the Issuers may have against any Purchaser as a result of any default by such Purchaser hereunder.

(b) As necessary, Agent shall advise each Purchaser by telephone or fax of the amount of such Purchaser’s Commitment Percentage of principal, interest and Fees paid for the benefit of Purchaser with respect to each applicable Note. Provided that each Purchaser has funded all payments required to be made by it, Agent shall pay to each Purchaser such Purchaser’s Commitment Percentage of principal, interest and fees paid by the Issuers for the benefit of such Purchaser on the Notes held by it. Such payments shall be made by wire transfer to such Purchaser not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the next Business Day following the Business Day on which such payment was recorded. Agent shall be entitled to set off the funding shortfall against any Non-Funding Purchaser’s Commitment Percentage of all payments received from the Issuers, and hold, in a non-interest bearing account, all remaining portions of any payments received by Agent for the benefit of any Non-Funding Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement as cash collateral for any unfunded reimbursement obligations of such Non-Funding Purchaser until the Obligations are paid in full in cash and all Note Purchase Commitments have been terminated, and upon such unfunded obligations owing by a Non-Funding Purchaser becoming due and payable, Agent shall be authorized to use such cash collateral to make such payment on behalf of such Non-Funding Purchaser. Any amounts owing by a Non-Funding Purchaser to Agent which are not paid when due shall accrue interest at the interest rate equal to the Base Rate.

(c) Non-Funding Purchaser Cure. To the extent that any Non-Funding Purchaser should at any time prior to the Maturity Date remit to the Agent any of the purchase price of any Notes required to be purchased by it from the Issuer, the Agent shall promptly notify the other Purchasers and shall remit to each other Purchaser the appropriate portion of such amount paid by the Non-Funding Purchaser as is allocable to the amount, if any, funded by such Purchaser on a prior Note Purchase Date to address any failure to fund by a Non-Funding Purchaser. Upon payment in full in cash by any Non-Funding Purchaser of all of the purchase price of Notes required to be purchased by it hereunder and any other payments due hereunder, to the extent not otherwise qualifying as a Non-Funding Purchaser pursuant to the definition hereof, such Purchaser shall cease to be a Non-Funding Purchaser.

(d) Return of Payments. If Agent determines at any time that any amount received by Agent under this Agreement or any other Note Document must be returned to any Note Party or paid to any other Person pursuant to any insolvency law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement or any other Note Document, Agent will not be required to distribute any portion thereof to any Purchaser. In addition, each Purchaser will repay to Agent on demand any portion of such amount that Agent has distributed to such Purchaser, together with interest at such rate, if any, as Agent is required to pay to the Issuers or such other Person, without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, and Agent will be entitled to set-off against future distributions to such Purchaser any such amounts (with interest) that are not repaid on demand.

(e) Non-Funding Purchasers. The failure of any Non-Funding Purchaser to pay its purchase price for any Notes or any payment required by it hereunder shall not relieve any other Purchaser (each such other Purchaser, an “Other Purchaser”) of its obligations to pay the purchase price of any Notes, but neither Agent nor, other than as expressly set forth herein, any Other Purchaser shall be responsible for the failure of any Non-Funding Purchaser to pay the purchase price of any Notes or make any other payment required hereunder. Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, a Non-Funding Purchaser shall not have any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Note Document or constitute a “Purchaser” (or be, or have its Note Purchase Commitment or Notes, included in the determination of “Required Purchasers” or “Purchasers directly affected” pursuant to Section 9.1) for any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Note Document, and no Non-Funding Purchaser shall be entitled to receive any Unused Commitment Fee. Moreover, for the purposes of determining Required Purchasers, the Note Purchase Commitments and Notes held by Non-Funding Purchasers shall be excluded from the total Notes and Note Purchase Commitments outstanding.

(f) Procedures. Agent is hereby authorized by each Note Party and each other Secured Party to establish procedures (and to amend such procedures from time to time) to facilitate administration and servicing of the Notes and other matters incidental thereto (to the extent not inconsistent with the express provisions hereof). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent is hereby authorized to establish procedures to make available or deliver, or to accept, notices, documents and similar items on, by posting to or submitting and/or completion on, E-Systems.

1.12 Priming and Super Priority Nature of Obligations and Purchasers’ Liens.

(a) Superpriority Claims and Liens. Each Note Party hereby covenants, represents and warrants that, upon entry of the Interim Order (and the Final Order, as applicable), the Obligations of the Note Parties under the Note Documents:

(i) pursuant to Section 364(c)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, shall at all times constitute allowed administrative expense claims in the Case having priority over all administrative expenses of the kind specified in Sections 503(b), 507(a) or 507(b) of the Bankruptcy Code; provided that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the cash collateral pledged to secure the Existing Letters of Credit pursuant to the Letter of Credit Cash Collateral Agreement shall not be subject to such claim and such claims shall not be paid from such collateral; provided, further, that to the extent any of such collateral is released from the security interests granted under the Letter of Credit Cash Collateral Agreement, it shall be subject to such super priority claims under this Section 1.12(i);

(ii) pursuant to Section 364(c)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, shall at all times be secured by a perfected first priority Lien on all tangible and intangible property of the Note Parties other than the Excluded Property (defined below) that is not subject to an Existing Lien as of the Petition Date; including, but not limited to claims and causes of action arising under sections 502(d), 544, 545, 547, 548, 549, 550, 551, 553(b), 723(a) or 724(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, the “Avoidance Actions”) (it being understood that the Liens so granted on the Avoidance Actions shall be subject to the entry of the Final Order);

(iii) pursuant to Section 364(c)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code, shall be secured by a perfected Lien upon all tangible and intangible property of the Note Parties other than the Excluded Property (defined below) that is subject to an Existing Lien as of the Petition Date (other than Primed Liens), junior to such Existing Lien; and

(iv) pursuant to Section 364(d)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, shall be secured by a perfected first priority Lien, senior and priming to the Primed Liens, on all of the tangible and intangible property of the Note Parties (other than the Excluded Property) that is subject to a lien or security interest securing the First Mortgage Notes; provided, however, that the Liens described in this subsection (iv) shall be subject to the Carve Out and junior to Permitted Senior Prior Liens (as described in the Interim Order and the Final Order, as applicable);

in the case of each of clauses (i) through (iv) above subject only to the Carve Out and the liens granted pursuant to the Letter of Credit Cash Collateral Agreement to secure the Existing Letters of Credit. For purposes of this section, “Excluded Property” means (i) any assets upon which security may not be lawfully granted, and (ii) 35% of the issued and outstanding Voting Stock of any new or existing Foreign Subsidiary (other than Constar UK, of which 100% of the outstanding Voting Stock shall be subject to the liens granted hereto) and, for the avoidance of doubt, 100% of the issued and outstanding Voting Stock of any new or existing Foreign Subsidiary not owned directly by a Note Party or Domestic Subsidiary of a Note Party. For the avoidance of doubt, the first lien collateral securing the obligations under the Pre-Petition Revolving Credit Agreement (the “GE Credit Agreement Collateral”) shall be Unencumbered Property (as defined in the Orders) upon repayment of the obligations under the Pre-Petition Revolving Credit Agreement and the Obligations shall at all times be secured by a perfected first priority Lien on the GE Credit Agreement Collateral.

(b) Real Property. Subject in all respects to the terms of the Orders, the priorities set forth in paragraph (a) above and to the Carve Out, each Note Party grants to the Agent on behalf of the Purchasers a security interest in, and mortgage on, all of the right, title and interest of such Note Party in all real property owned by such Note Party and the proceeds of all real property leased by such Note Party, together in each case with all of the right, title and interest of such Note Party in and to all buildings, improvements, and fixtures related thereto, all general intangibles relating thereto and all proceeds thereof. Each Note Party acknowledges that, pursuant to the Orders, the Liens in favor of the Agent on behalf of the Purchasers in all of such real property shall be perfected without the recordation of any instruments of mortgage or assignment. Each Note Party agrees that upon the reasonable request of the Agent, such Note Party shall promptly enter into separate mortgages in recordable form with respect to such owned properties on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.

1.13 Discharge. Each Issuer agrees that (i) its obligations hereunder shall not be discharged by the entry of an order confirming any plan of reorganization (and each Note Party, pursuant to Section 1141(d)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code, hereby waives any such discharge) and (ii) the Superpriority Claim granted to the Purchasers pursuant to the Orders and described in subsection (i) hereof and the Liens granted to the Agent pursuant to the Orders and the Note Documents shall not be affected in any manner by the entry of an order confirming any plan of reorganization.

1.14 Payment of Obligations. Notwithstanding the provisions of section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code, and subject to the applicable provisions of the Interim Order or Final Order, as the case may be, upon the maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of any of the Obligations, Agent and Purchasers shall be entitled to immediate payment of such Obligations and to enforce the remedies provided for hereunder or under applicable law, in accordance with provisions of the Interim Order and the Final Order, as applicable.

1.15 Restriction on Payments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no proceeds of Notes, cash or cash equivalents or other Collateral or the Carve Out or proceeds of any of the foregoing may be used to (i) object to or contest in any manner or raise any defense to, the validity, perfection, priority, extent or enforceability of any amount due under this Agreement and other Note Documents or the First Mortgage Notes Documents or the Liens or claims granted under the Interim Order or the Final Order or the Note Documents or First Mortgage Notes Documents, (ii) assert any claims, counterclaims, defenses or causes of action against the Agent, the Purchasers, the FRN Holders or any of their respective Affiliates, (iii) prevent, hinder or otherwise delay the Agent’s assertion, enforcement or realization on cash, cash equivalents or other Collateral in accordance with the Note Documents or the Interim Order or the Final Order, (iv) seek to modify any of the rights granted to the Agent, the Purchasers, the FRN Holders, under the Note Documents or the First Mortgage Note Documents as applicable, or the Interim Order or the Final Order or (v) except as may be provided in the Orders, investigate, commence, prosecute or support any other person in commencing, prosecuting or supporting any challenge to the validity, perfection, priority or extent of the obligations, claims and Liens described in clauses (i) or (ii).

1.16 Adequate Protection. In consideration of the holders of the First Mortgage Notes consenting to the priming by the Liens granted by the Order and the Security Documents (the “DIP Liens”) and the use of their cash collateral by Note Parties:

(a) the holders of the First Mortgage Notes shall be entitled to valid, binding, continuing, enforceable, fully-perfected second priority liens on, and security interests in (the “Adequate Protection Liens”) all existing and future tangible and intangible assets of the Note Parties other than Excluded Property (as defined in Section 1.12 above), subject to the Carve Out and the liens and security interests described and granted pursuant to Section 1.12 above;

(b) the Note Parties shall reimburse the reasonable fees and expenses of (x) the Consenting Noteholders’ professionals, consisting of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇ LLP and one local counsel to the Consenting Noteholders, and any financial advisor retained by the Consenting Noteholders and (y) the professionals of the indenture trustee under the First Mortgage Notes Indenture, in each case, to the extent incurred in connection with the Cases; and

(c) to the extent the Adequate Protection Liens and such fees and expenses are insufficient to provide adequate protection for any diminution in value of the collateral securing the obligations under the First Mortgage Notes Documents from and after the Petition Date, the FRN Holders shall be entitled to super priority administrative expense claims for the amount of such diminution pursuant to section 507(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, which claims shall be junior to the claims described in Section 1.12(a) and shall be payable from and have recourse to all assets and property of the Note Parties subject to the Carve Out or other than the cash collateral pledged to secure the Existing Letters of Credit pursuant to the Letter of Credit Cash Collateral Agreement (it being agreed and understood that upon any release of such cash collateral, the FRN Holders shall have recourse to such cash collateral).

The execution, delivery and performance by each of the Note Parties of this Agreement, and by each Note Party and each of their respective Subsidiaries of any other Note Document to which such Person is party and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby upon entry of the Interim Order and (when applicable) the Final Order have been duly authorized by all necessary action, including the consent of shareholders, partners and members and the Bankruptcy Court where required, and do not and will not:

3.7 ERISA Compliance.

(a) Schedule 3.7(a) sets forth, as of the Closing Date, a complete and correct list of, and that separately identifies, (a) all Title IV Plans and (b) all Multiemployer Plans. Each Benefit Plan, and each trust thereunder, intended to qualify for tax exempt status under Section 401 or 501 of the Code or other Requirements of Law so qualifies.

Schedule 3.7(b) separately identifies which of the UK Pension Plans is a defined benefit plan and which is a defined contribution plan. All of the UK Pension Plans are registered pension schemes as defined in chapter 2 of part 4 of the United Kingdom Finance ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇. There is no plan of any Note Party organized in England and Wales (or, to the knowledge of the Note Parties organized in England and Wales, of any other Person having the power to amend or terminate any UK Pension Plan) to amend or terminate any UK Pension Plan or otherwise do any act or omission so as to give rise to any claim by the trustees of that plan whether under the related trust deed or rules of that plan or under Section 75 of the United Kingdom Pensions ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇. Contributions have been made to the UK Pension Plans as required under their relevant schedule of contributions and recovery plan in force from time to time as those terms are defined in Part 3 of the United Kingdom Pensions Act 2004 (as amended) in all material respects.

As of the Closing Date, none of the Real Estate of any Note Party or any Subsidiary of any Note Party is subject to any Liens other than Permitted Liens. As of the Closing Date, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, all permits required to have been issued or appropriate to enable the Real Estate to be lawfully occupied and used for all of the purposes for which it is currently occupied and used have been lawfully issued and are in full force and effect.

4.6 Insurance.

(a) Each Note Party shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, (i) maintain or cause to be maintained in full force and effect all policies of insurance of any kind with respect to the property and businesses of the Note Parties and such Subsidiaries (including policies of fire, product liability, public liability, property damage, other casualty, workers’ compensation, and business interruption insurance) with financially sound and reputable insurance companies or associations (in each case that are not Affiliates of the Issuers (other than to the extent that the Note Parties are self insured with respect to health insurance)) of a nature and providing such coverage as is sufficient and as is customarily carried by businesses of the size and character of the business of the Note Parties and (ii) cause all such insurance relating to any property or business of any Note Party to name Agent as additional insured and all such property and business interruption insurance relating to any Collateral to name Agent as loss payee. All such property, business interruption and extra expense (if any) policies of insurance on Collateral of the Note Parties will contain an endorsement, in form and substance acceptable to Agent, showing loss payable to Agent (Form CP 1218 or equivalent) and extra expense and business interruption endorsements. Such endorsement, or an independent instrument furnished to Agent, will provide, to the extent of the Agent’s and the Purchasers’ interest in such policies of insurance and the property covered thereby, that (i) the insurance companies endeavor to give Agent at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice before any such policy or policies of insurance shall be altered or canceled (or in the case of cancellation for non-payment of premiums, ten (10) day’s prior written notice) and (ii) no act or default of the Note Parties or any other Person shall affect the right of Agent to recover under such policy or policies of insurance in case of loss or damage. Each Note Party shall direct all present and future insurers under its “All Risk” policies of property insurance on Collateral to pay all proceeds payable thereunder directly to Agent. If any insurance proceeds are paid by check, draft or other instrument payable to any Note Party and Agent jointly, Agent may endorse such Note Party’s name thereon and do such other things as Agent may deem advisable to reduce the same to cash. Agent reserves the right at any time, upon review of each Note Party’s risk profile, to require reasonable additional forms and limits of insurance.

(b) Unless the Note Parties provide Agent with evidence of the insurance coverage required by this Agreement, Agent may, upon at least five (5) Business Days’ prior notice to Issuer Representative (unless the insurance would expire prior thereto), purchase insurance required by this Agreement at the Note Parties’ expense to protect Agent’s and Purchasers’ interests in the Note Parties’ and their Subsidiaries’ properties (whether or not such insurance pertains to the Collateral or other property). This insurance may, but need not, protect the Note Parties’ and their Subsidiaries’ interests. The coverage that Agent purchases may not pay any claim that any Note Party or any Subsidiary of any Note Party makes or any claim that is made against such Note Party or any Subsidiary in connection with said Property. The Issuers may later cancel any insurance purchased by Agent, but only after providing Agent with evidence that there has been obtained insurance as required by this Agreement. If Agent purchases insurance, the Note Parties will be responsible for the costs of that insurance, including interest and any other reasonable charges Agent may impose in connection with the placement of insurance, until the effective date of the cancellation or expiration of the insurance. The costs of the insurance shall be added to the Obligations. The costs of the insurance may be more than the cost of insurance the Issuers may be able to obtain on their own.

(c) The Note Parties appoint Agent as their attorney-in-fact to settle or adjust all property damage claims under its property insurance policies to extent such claims relate to the Collateral; provided, that such power of attorney shall only be exercised so long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or if the property insurance claim exceeds $1,000,000. If no Event of Default is has occurred and is continuing and the Agent exercises such power of attorney to settle or adjust any property damage claim in accordance with the preceding sentence, the Agent shall make such settlement or adjustment in consultation with the Issuer Representative. The Agent shall have no duty to exercise such power of attorney, but may do so at its Permitted Discretion.

Such Note Party shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, pay, discharge and perform as the same shall become due and payable or required to be performed, all their respective obligations and liabilities (in the case of Contractual Obligations, relating only to obligations arising after the Petition Date or under executory contracts and leases that have been assumed with the consent of the Agent (“Designated Obligations”)), including:

(a) all tax liabilities, assessments and governmental charges or levies upon it or its Property arising after the Petition Date or, with the consent of the Agent, ordered to be paid by the Bankruptcy Court, unless (i) the same are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently prosecuted which stay the filing or enforcement of any Lien and for which adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP are being maintained by such Person and (ii) in the case of any such Lien against the Collateral, Issuers shall have notified Agent of such Lien.

(b) all lawful claims relating to Designated Obligations which, if unpaid, would by law become a Lien upon its Property unless the same are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently prosecuted which stay the imposition or enforcement of any Lien and for which adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP are being maintained by such Person;

If the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Purchaser (because the appropriate certification form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or fails to establish an exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax with respect to a particular type of payment, or because such Purchaser failed to notify Agent or any other Person of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective, or for any other reason), or Agent reasonably determines that it was required to withhold taxes from a prior payment but failed to do so, such Purchaser shall promptly indemnify Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by such Agent as tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and together with all expenses incurred by Agent, including legal expenses, allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses. Agent may offset against any payment to any Purchaser under a Note Document, any applicable withholding tax that was required to be withheld from any prior payment to such Purchaser but which was not so withheld, as well as any other amounts for which Agent is entitled to indemnification from such Purchaser under this subsection 8.8(c).

8.9 Resignation of Agent.

(a) Agent may resign at any time by delivering notice of such resignation to the Purchasers and the Issuer Representative, effective on the date set forth in such notice or, if no such date is set forth therein, upon the date such notice shall be effective in accordance with the terms of this Section 8.9. If Agent delivers any such notice, the Required Purchasers shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent. If, within thirty (30) days after the retiring Agent having given notice of resignation, no successor Agent has been appointed by the Required Purchasers that has accepted such appointment, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Purchasers, appoint a successor Agent from among the Purchasers. Each appointment under this clause (a) shall be subject to the prior consent of the Issuer Representative, which may not be unreasonably withheld but shall not be required during the continuance of an Event of Default.

(b) Effective immediately upon its resignation, (i) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Note Documents, (ii) the Purchasers shall assume and perform all of the duties of Agent until a successor Agent shall have accepted a valid appointment hereunder, (iii) the retiring Agent and its Related Persons shall no longer have the benefit of any provision of any Note Document other than with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken while such retiring Agent was, or because such Agent had been, validly acting as Agent under the Note Documents and (iv) subject to its rights under Section 8.3, the retiring Agent shall take such action as may be reasonably necessary to assign to the successor Agent its rights as Agent under the Note Documents. Effective immediately upon its acceptance of a valid appointment as Agent, a successor Agent shall succeed to, and become vested with, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent under the Note Documents.

8.10 Release of Collateral or Guarantors. Each Purchaser hereby consents to the release and hereby directs Agent to release (or, in the case of clause (b)(ii) below, release or subordinate) the following:

(a) any Subsidiary of Holdings from its guaranty of any Obligation if all of the Stock and Stock Equivalents of such Subsidiary owned by any Note Party are sold or transferred in a transaction permitted under the Note Documents (including pursuant to a waiver or consent); and

(b) any Lien held by Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties against (i) any Collateral that is sold, transferred, conveyed or otherwise disposed of by a Note Party in a transaction permitted by the Note Documents (including pursuant to a waiver or consent), (ii) any property subject to a Lien permitted hereunder in reliance upon subsection 5.1(h) or 5.1(i) and (iii) all of the Collateral and all Note Parties, upon (A) termination of the Note Purchase Commitments, (B) payment and satisfaction in full of all Notes and all other Obligations (excluding contingent Obligations as to which no claim has been asserted) under the Note Documents, that Agent has theretofore been notified in writing by the holder of such Obligation are then due and payable, (C) deposit of cash collateral with respect to all contingent Obligations, in amounts and on terms and conditions and with parties satisfactory to Agent and each Indemnitee that is, or may be, owed such Obligations (excluding contingent Obligations as to which no claim has been asserted, other than cash collateral of up to $50,000 securing contingent Obligations with respect to the Control Agreement among the Issuers, Agent and The Bank of New York Mellon to be held until Agent’s potential liabilities with respect thereto have terminated, expired or otherwise been satisfied) and (D) to the extent requested by Agent, receipt by Agent and the Secured Parties of liability releases from the Note Parties each in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Agent.

Each Purchaser hereby directs Agent, and Agent hereby agrees, upon receipt of at least five (5) Business Days’ advance notice from the Issuer Representative, to execute and deliver or file such documents and to perform other actions reasonably necessary to release the guaranties and Liens when and as directed in this Section 8.10.

8.11 Additional Secured Parties. The benefit of the provisions of the Note Documents directly relating to the Collateral or any Lien granted thereunder shall extend to and be available to any Secured Party that is not a Purchaser hereto as long as, by accepting such benefits, such Secured Party agrees, as among Agent and all other Secured Parties, that such Secured Party is bound by (and, if requested by Agent, shall confirm such agreement in a writing in form and substance acceptable to Agent) this Article VIII and Sections 9.3, 9.9, 9.10, 9.11, 9.17, 9.24 and 10.1) and the decisions and actions of Agent and the Required Purchasers (or, where expressly required by the terms of this Agreement, a greater proportion of the Purchasers or other parties hereto as required herein) to the same extent a Purchaser is bound; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) such Secured Party shall be bound by Section 8.8 only to the extent of Liabilities, costs and expenses with respect to or otherwise relating to the Collateral held for the benefit of such Secured Party, in which case the obligations of such Secured Party thereunder shall not be limited by any concept of pro rata share or similar concept, (b) each of Agent, the Purchasers party hereto shall be entitled to act at its sole discretion, without regard to the interest of such Secured Party, regardless of whether any Obligation to such Secured Party thereafter remains outstanding, is deprived of the benefit of the Collateral, becomes unsecured or is otherwise affected or put in jeopardy thereby, and without any duty or liability to such Secured Party or any such Obligation and (c) except as otherwise set forth herein, such Secured Party shall not have any right to be notified of, consent to, direct, require or be heard with respect to, any action taken or omitted in respect of the Collateral or under any Note Document.

9.4 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of Agent or any Purchaser, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

Furthermore, each of the Issuers and each other Note Party executing this Agreement waives and agrees not to assert against any Indemnitee, and shall cause each other Note Party to waive and not assert against any Indemnitee, any right of contribution with respect to any Liabilities that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any Related Person or any Indemnitee (subject to the proviso above in the immediately preceding sentence).

(b) Without limiting the foregoing, “Indemnified Matters” includes all Environmental Liabilities, including those arising from, or otherwise involving, any property of any Note Party or any Related Person of any Note Party or any actual, alleged or prospective damage to property or natural resources or harm or injury alleged to have resulted from any Release of Hazardous Materials on, upon or into such property or natural resource or any property on or contiguous to any Real Estate of any Note Party or any Related Person or any Note Party, whether or not, with respect to any such Environmental Liabilities, any Indemnitee is a mortgagee pursuant to any leasehold mortgage, a mortgagee in possession, the successor-in-interest to any Note Party or any Related Person of any Note Party or the owner, lessee or operator of any property of any Related Person through any foreclosure action, in each case except to the extent such Environmental Liabilities (i) are incurred solely following foreclosure by Agent or following Agent or any Purchaser having become the successor-in-interest to any Note Party or any Related Person of any Note Party and (ii) are attributable solely to acts of such Indemnitee.

9.7 Marshaling; Payments Set Aside. No Secured Party shall be under any obligation to marshal any property in favor of any Note Party or any other Person or against or in payment of any Obligation. To the extent that any Secured Party receives a payment from the Issuers, from any other Note Party, from the proceeds of the Collateral, from the exercise of its rights of setoff, any enforcement action or otherwise, and such payment is subsequently, in whole or in part, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, then to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not occurred.

9.8 Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided that any assignment by any Purchaser shall be subject to the provisions of Section 9.9, and provided further that the Issuers may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Agent and each Purchaser.

9.9 Assignments and Participations; Binding Effect.

(a) Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by Holdings, the Issuers, the other Note Parties signatory hereto and Agent and when Agent shall have been notified by each Purchaser that such Purchaser has executed it. Thereafter, it shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of, but only to the benefit of, Holdings, the Issuers, the other Note Parties hereto (in each case except for Article VIII), Agent and each Purchaser receiving the benefits of the Note Documents and, to the extent provided in Section 8.11, each other Secured Party and, in each case, their respective successors and permitted assigns. Except as expressly provided in any Note Document (including in Section 8.9), none of Holdings, the Issuers, any other Note Party or Agent shall have the right to assign any rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein.

(b) Right to Assign. Each Purchaser may sell, transfer, negotiate or assign (a “Sale”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations hereunder (including all or a portion of its Note Purchase Commitment and its rights and obligations with respect to the Notes) to (i) any existing Purchaser, (ii) any Affiliate or Approved Fund of any existing Purchaser, (iii) any FRN Holder or any Affiliate or Approved Fund of any FRN Holder or (iv) any other Person (it being agreed that assignments pursuant to this subclause (iv) shall be acceptable (which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to the Agent and Issuer Representative; provided, however, that the consent of Issuer Representative shall not be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and Issuer Representative shall be deemed to have so consented if it shall not have responded (whether affirmatively or negatively) to a request for such consent within five (5) Business Days after such request is made); provided further, however, that the aggregate outstanding principal amount (determined as of the effective date of the applicable Sale) of the Notes subject to any such Sale shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000, unless such Sale is made in connection with the FRN Participation, to an existing Purchaser or Affiliate or Approved Fund of any existing Purchaser, is of the assignor’s (together with its Affiliates and Approved Funds) entire interest in such facility or is made with the prior consent of the Issuer Representative (to the extent required) and the Agent, (w) such Sales shall be effective only upon the acknowledgement in writing by such assignee that the representations and

warranties set forth in Section 9.26(ii) shall be true and correct with respect to such assignee, (x) such Sales shall be effective only upon the acknowledgment in writing of such Sale by the Agent, (y) interest accrued prior to and through the date of any such Sale shall be assigned, and (z) such Sales by Non-Funding Purchasers shall be subject to the Agent’s prior written consent in all instances. The Agent’s refusal to accept a Sale to a Note Party, an Affiliate of a Note Party, or the imposition of conditions or limitations (including limitations on voting) upon Sales to such Persons, shall not be deemed to be unreasonable. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, except in connection with the FRN Participation, no Purchaser may assign its rights and obligations hereunder or under any other Note Document unless (x) a ratable portion of such Purchaser’s Floating Rate Note Claims are assigned to the same assignee, any of its Affiliates or Approved Funds in accordance with the Plan Support Agreement, (y) such assignee is a Purchaser, an Affiliate or an Approved Fund of any Purchaser (including assignor) or (z) the Agent and Supermajority Purchasers have consented.

(c) Procedure. The parties to each Sale made in reliance on clause (b) above (other than those described in clause (e) or (f) below) shall execute and deliver to Agent an Assignment via a manual execution and delivery of the Assignment evidencing such Sale, together with any existing Note subject to such Sale (or any affidavit of loss therefor acceptable to Agent), any tax forms required to be delivered pursuant to Section 10.1 and payment of an assignment fee in the amount of $3,500 to Agent, unless waived or reduced by Agent; provided, that (i) if a Sale by a Purchaser is made to an Affiliate or an Approved Fund of such assigning Purchaser, then no assignment fee shall be due in connection with such Sale, and (ii) if a Sale by a Purchaser is made to an assignee that is not an Affiliate or Approved Fund of such assignor Purchaser, and concurrently to one or more Affiliates or Approved Funds of such Assignee, then only one assignment fee of $3,500 shall be due in connection with such Sale (unless waived or reduced by Agent). Upon receipt of all the foregoing, and conditioned upon such receipt and, if such Assignment is made in accordance with clause (iii) of subsection 9.9(b), upon Agent (and the Issuer Representative, if applicable) consenting to such Assignment, from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment, Agent shall record or cause to be recorded in the Register the information contained in such Assignment.

(d) Effectiveness. Subject to the recording of an Assignment by Agent in the Register pursuant to subsection 1.4(b), (i) the assignee thereunder shall become a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations under the Note Documents have been assigned to such assignee pursuant to such Assignment, shall have the rights and obligations of a Purchaser, (ii) any applicable Note shall be transferred to such assignee through such entry and (iii) the assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations under this Agreement have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment, relinquish its rights (except for those surviving the termination of the payment in full of the Obligations) and be released from its obligations under the Note Documents, other than those relating to events or circumstances occurring prior to such assignment (and, in the case of an Assignment covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Purchaser’s rights and obligations under the Note Documents, such Purchaser shall cease to be a party hereto).

(e) Grant of Security Interests. In addition to the other rights provided in this Section 9.9, each Purchaser may grant a security interest in, or otherwise assign as collateral, any of its rights under this Agreement, whether now owned or hereafter acquired (including rights to payments of principal or interest on the Notes), to (i) any federal reserve bank (pursuant to Regulation A of the Federal Reserve Board), without notice to Agent or (ii) any holder of, or trustee for the benefit of the holders of, such Purchaser’s Indebtedness or equity securities, by notice to Agent; provided, however, that no such holder or trustee, whether because of such grant or assignment or any foreclosure thereon (unless such foreclosure is made through an assignment in accordance with clause (b) above), shall be entitled to any rights of such Purchaser hereunder and no such Purchaser shall be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder.

(f) Participants and SPVs. In addition to the other rights provided in this Section 9.9, each Purchaser may, (i) with notice to Agent, grant to an SPV the option to make all or any part of any Note that such Purchaser would otherwise be required to make hereunder (and the exercise of such option by such SPV and the making of Notes pursuant thereto shall satisfy the obligation of such Purchaser to make such Notes hereunder) and such SPV may assign to such Purchaser the right to receive payment with respect to any Obligation and (ii) without notice to or consent from Agent or the Issuers, sell participations to one or more Persons in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the Note Documents; provided, however, that, whether as a result of any term of any Note Document or of such grant or participation, (i) no such SPV or participant shall have a commitment, or be deemed to have made an offer to commit, to purchase Notes hereunder, and, except as provided in the applicable option agreement, none shall be liable for any obligation of such Purchaser hereunder, (ii) such Purchaser’s rights and obligations, and the rights and obligations of the Note Parties and the Secured Parties towards such Purchaser, under any Note Document shall remain unchanged and each other party hereto shall continue to deal solely with such Purchaser, which shall remain the holder of the Obligations in the Register, except that (A) each such participant and SPV shall be entitled to the benefit of Article X, but, with respect to Section 10.1, only to the extent such participant or SPV delivers the tax forms such Purchaser is required to collect pursuant to subsection 10.1(f) and then only to the extent of any amount to which such Purchaser would be entitled in the absence of any such grant or participation and (B) each such SPV may receive other payments that would otherwise be made to such Purchaser with respect to Notes funded by such SPV to the extent provided in the applicable option agreement and set forth in a notice provided to Agent by such SPV and such Purchaser, provided, however, that in no case (including pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above) shall an SPV or participant have the right to enforce any of the terms of any Note Document, and (iii) the consent of such SPV or participant shall not be required (either directly, as a restraint on such Purchaser’s ability to consent hereunder or otherwise) for any amendments, waivers or consents with respect to any Note Document or to exercise or refrain from exercising any powers or rights such Purchaser may have under or in respect of the Note Documents (including the right to enforce or direct enforcement of the Obligations), except for those described in Section 9.1(a) with respect to amounts, or dates fixed for payment of amounts, to which such participant or SPV would otherwise be entitled and, in the case of participants, except for those described in Section 9.1(a).

The agreement in the preceding sentence shall survive the termination of the Note Purchase Commitments and the payment in full of the Obligations.

(g) Each holder of a Note, by its acceptance of such Note, will be deemed to have made the representation and warranty in the last sentence of Section 9.9(a) and in Section 9.9(b) in connection with its receipt of such Note.

9.10 Non-Public Information; Confidentiality.

(a) Non-Public Information. Agent and each Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that it may receive material non-public information (“MNPI”) hereunder concerning the Note Parties and their Affiliates and agrees to use such information in compliance with all relevant policies, procedures and applicable Requirements of Laws (including United States federal and state security laws and regulations).

(b) Confidential Information. Each Purchaser and Agent agrees to use all reasonable efforts to maintain, in accordance with its customary practices, the confidentiality of information obtained by it pursuant to any Note Document, except that such information may be disclosed (i) with the Issuer Representative’s consent, (ii) to Related Persons of such Purchaser, or Agent, as the case may be, that are advised of the confidential nature of such information and are instructed to keep such information confidential in accordance with the terms hereof, (iii) to the extent such information presently is or hereafter becomes (A) publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 9.10 or (B) available to such Purchaser or Agent or any of their Related Persons, as the case may be, from a source (other than any Note Party) not known by them to be subject to disclosure restrictions, (iv) to the extent disclosure is required by applicable Requirements of Law or other legal process or requested or demanded by any Governmental Authority (in which case such Purchaser or Agent shall promptly notify the Issuer Representative to the extent lawfully permitted to do so), (v) to the extent necessary or customary for inclusion in league table measurements, (vi) (A) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization, any examiner or any nationally recognized rating agency or (B) otherwise to the extent consisting of general portfolio information that does not identify Note Parties, (vii) to current or prospective assignees, SPVs (including the investors or prospective investors therein) or participants and to their respective Related Persons, in each case to the extent such assignees, investors, participants, counterparties or Related Persons agree to be bound by provisions substantially similar to the provisions of this Section 9.10 (and such Person may disclose information to their respective Related Persons in accordance with clause (ii) above), (viii) to any other party hereto, (ix) in connection with the exercise or enforcement of any right or remedy under any Note Document, in connection with any litigation or other proceeding to which such Purchaser or Agent or any of their Related Persons is a party or bound, or to the extent necessary to respond to public statements or disclosures by Note Parties or their Related Persons referring to a Purchaser or Agent or any of their Related Persons; and (x) if such information becomes public as a result of its inclusion in any filing with the Bankruptcy Court for the Cases. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Section 9.10 and those of any other Contractual Obligation entered into with any Note Party (whether or not a Note Document), the terms of this Section 9.10 shall govern.

(c) Tombstones. Each Note Party consents to the publication by Agent or any Purchaser of advertising material relating to the financing transactions contemplated by this Agreement using any Note Party’s name, logo or trademark. Agent or such Purchaser shall provide a draft of any advertising material to Issuer Representative for review and comment prior to the publication thereof.

(d) Press Release and Related Matters. No Note Party shall, and no Note Party shall permit any of its Affiliates to, issue any press release or other public disclosure (other than any document filed with any Governmental Authority or securities exchange relating to a public offering of securities of any Note Party or the reports filed by any Note Party in accordance with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) using the name, logo or otherwise referring to the Purchasers or of any of their Affiliates, the Note Documents or any transaction contemplated therein to which Agent is party without the prior consent of such Purchaser except to the extent required to do so under applicable Requirements of Law and then, only after consulting with the applicable Purchaser to the extent lawfully permitted to do so.

(e) Distribution of Materials to Purchasers The Note Parties acknowledge and agree that the Note Documents and all reports, notices, communications and other information or materials provided or delivered by, or on behalf of, the Note Parties hereunder (collectively, the “Issuer Materials”) may be disseminated by, or on behalf of, Agent, and made available, to the Purchasers by posting such Issuer Materials on an E-System. The Note Parties authorize Agent to download copies of their logos from its website and post copies thereof on an E-System.

(f) Material Non-Public Information. The Note Parties hereby agree that if either they, any parent company or any Subsidiary of the Note Parties has publicly traded equity or debt securities in the U.S., they shall (and shall cause such parent company or Subsidiary, as the case may be, to) (i) identify in writing, and (ii) to the extent reasonably practicable, clearly and conspicuously ▇▇▇▇ such Issuer Materials that contain only information that is publicly available or that is not material for purposes of U.S. federal and state securities laws as “PUBLIC”. The Note Parties agree that by identifying such Issuer Materials as “PUBLIC” or publicly filing such Issuer Materials with the Securities and Exchange Commission, then Agent and the Purchasers shall be entitled to treat such Issuer Materials as not containing any MNPI for purposes of U.S. federal and state securities laws. The Note Parties further represent, warrant, acknowledge and agree that the following documents and materials shall be deemed to be PUBLIC, whether or not so marked, and do not contain any MNPI: (A) this Agreement, other than the schedules and exhibits attached hereto, and (B) administrative materials of a customary nature prepared by the Note Parties or Agent. Before distribution of the Issuer Materials, the Note Parties agree to execute and deliver to Agent a letter authorizing distribution of the Issuer Materials to prospective Purchasers and their employees willing to receive MNPI, and a separate letter authorizing distribution of Issuer Materials that do not contain MNPI and represent that no MNPI is contained therein.

9.11 Set-off; Sharing of Payments.

(a) Right of Setoff. Subject to any requirement of notice provided in the Orders, each of Agent, each Purchaser, and each Affiliate (including each branch office thereof) of any of them is hereby authorized, without notice or demand (each of which is hereby waived by each Note Party), at any time and from time to time during the continuance of any Event of Default and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (whether general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other Indebtedness, claims or other obligations at any time owing by Agent, such Purchaser or any of their respective Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of the Issuers or any other Note Party against any Obligation of any Note Party now or hereafter existing, whether or not any demand was made under any Note Document with respect to such Obligation and even though such Obligation may be unmatured. No Purchaser shall exercise any such right of setoff without the prior consent of Agent or Required Purchasers. Each of Agent and each Purchaser agrees promptly to notify the Issuer Representative and Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Purchaser or its Affiliates; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights under this Section 9.11 are in addition to any other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that Agent, the Purchasers, their Affiliates and the other Secured Parties, may have.

(b) Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Purchaser, directly or through an Affiliate or branch office thereof, obtains any payment of any Obligation of any Note Party (whether voluntary, involuntary or through the exercise of any right of setoff or the receipt of any Collateral or “proceeds” (as defined under the applicable UCC) of Collateral) other than pursuant to Article X and such payment exceeds the amount such Purchaser would have been entitled to receive if all payments had gone to, and been distributed by, Agent in accordance with the provisions of the Note Documents, such Purchaser shall purchase for cash from other Purchasers such participations in their Obligations as necessary for such Purchaser to share such excess payment with such Purchasers to ensure such payment is applied as though it had been received by Agent and applied in accordance with this Agreement (or, if such application would then be at the discretion of the Issuers, applied to repay the Obligations in accordance herewith); provided, however, that (a) if such payment is rescinded or otherwise recovered from such Purchaser in whole or in part, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price therefor shall be returned to such Purchaser without interest and (b) such Purchaser shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, be able to exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of setoff) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Purchaser were the direct creditor of the applicable Note Party in the amount of such participation. If a Non- Funding Purchaser receives any such payment as described in the previous sentence, such Purchaser shall turn over such payments to Agent in an amount that would satisfy the cash collateral requirements set forth in subsection 1.11(b).

9.12 Counterparts; Facsimile Signature. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single counterpart. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile transmission or Electronic Transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof.

9.13 Severability. The illegality or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder shall not in any way affect or impair the legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder.

9.15 Independence of Provisions.

9.16 Interpretation. This Agreement is the result of negotiations among and has been reviewed by counsel to Note Parties, Agent, each Purchaser and other parties hereto, and is the product of all parties hereto. Accordingly, this Agreement and the other Note Documents shall not be construed against the Purchasers or Agent merely because of Agent’s or Purchasers’ involvement in the preparation of such documents and agreements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the parties hereto has had the advice of counsel with respect to Sections 9.18 and 9.19.

9.17 No Third Parties Benefited.

EACH NOTE PARTY IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT ALL ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER NOTE DOCUMENTS SHALL BE LITIGATED IN SUCH COURTS. EACH NOTE PARTY EXPRESSLY SUBMITS AND CONSENT TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS AND WAIVES ANY DEFENSE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall limit the right of Agent to commence any proceeding in the federal or state courts of any other jurisdiction to the extent Agent determines that such action is necessary or appropriate to exercise its rights or remedies under the Note Documents. The parties hereto (and, to the extent set forth in any other Note Document, each other Note Party) hereby irrevocably waive any objection, including any objection to the laying of venue or based on the grounds of forum non conveniens, that any of them may now or hereafter have to the bringing of any such action or proceeding in such jurisdictions.

(c) Service of Process. Each Note Party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of any and all legal process, summons, notices and other documents and other service of process of any kind and consents to such service in any suit, action or proceeding brought in the United States of America with respect to or otherwise arising out of or in connection with any Note Document by any means permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, including by the mailing thereof (by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid) to the address of the Issuers specified herein (and shall be effective when such mailing shall be effective, as provided therein). Each Note Party agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

(d) Non-Exclusive Jurisdiction.

9.20 Entire Agreement; Release; Survival.

(a) THE NOTE DOCUMENTS EMBODY THE ENTIRE AGREEMENT OF THE PARTIES AND SUPERSEDE ALL PRIOR AGREEMENTS AND UNDERSTANDINGS RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER THEREOF AND ANY PRIOR LETTER OF INTEREST, COMMITMENT LETTER, CONFIDENTIALITY AND SIMILAR AGREEMENTS INVOLVING ANY NOTE PARTY AND ANY PURCHASER OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES RELATING TO A FINANCING OF SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR FORM, PURPOSE OR EFFECT. IN THE EVENT OF ANY CONFLICT BETWEEN THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY OTHER NOTE DOCUMENT, THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL GOVERN (UNLESS SUCH TERMS OF SUCH OTHER NOTE DOCUMENTS ARE NECESSARY TO COMPLY WITH APPLICABLE REQUIREMENTS OF LAW, IN WHICH CASE SUCH TERMS SHALL GOVERN TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO COMPLY THEREWITH).

(b) Execution of this Agreement by the Note Parties constitutes a full, complete and irrevocable release of any and all claims which each Note Party may have at law or in equity in respect of all prior discussions and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter of this Agreement and the other Note Documents. In no event shall any Indemnitee be liable on any theory of liability for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (including any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings). Each of the Issuers and each other Note Party signatory hereto hereby waives, releases and agrees (and shall cause each other Note Party to waive, release and agree) not to ▇▇▇ upon any such claim for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

(c) (i) Any indemnification or other protection provided to any Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 9.20, Sections 9.5 (Costs and Expenses) and 9.6 (Indemnity) and Articles VIII (Agent) and X (Taxes, Yield Protection and Illegality) and (ii) the provisions of Section 8.1 of the Guaranty and Security Agreement, in each case, shall (x) survive the termination of the Note Purchase Commitments and the payment in full of all other Obligations and (y) with respect to clause (i) above, inure to the benefit of any Person that at any time held a right thereunder (as an Indemnitee or otherwise) and, thereafter, its successors and permitted assigns.

9.21 Patriot Act. Each Purchaser that is subject to the Patriot Act hereby notifies the Note Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Note Party, which information includes the name and address of each Note Party and other information that will allow such Purchaser to identify each Note Party in accordance with the Patriot Act.

9.22 Replacement of Purchaser. Within forty-five (45) days after: (i) any Purchaser becoming a Non-Funding Purchaser and failing to cure such status or (ii) any failure by any Purchaser (other than Agent) to consent to a requested amendment, waiver or modification to any Note Document in which Required Purchasers have already consented to such amendment, waiver or modification but the consent of each Purchaser (or each Purchaser directly affected thereby, as applicable) is required with respect thereto, the Agent may, at its option, notify such Affected Purchaser (or such defaulting or non-consenting Purchaser, as the case may be) of the intention to obtain a replacement Purchaser (“Replacement Purchaser”) for such Affected Purchaser (or such defaulting or non-consenting Purchaser, as the case may be), which Replacement Purchaser shall be reasonably satisfactory to Agent. In the event a Replacement Purchaser is obtained within forty-five (45) days following notice of Agent’s intention to do so, the Affected Purchaser (or defaulting or non-consenting Purchaser, as the case may be) shall sell and assign its Notes and Note Purchase Commitment to such Replacement Purchaser, at par (or, if the relevant amendment, waiver of modification results in a payment of any portion of the Notes or reduction in any Note Purchase Commitment, the payment of which would require the fee set forth in 1.9(d), at the premium provided for in 1.9(d)), provided that the Issuers have reimbursed such Affected Purchaser for its increased costs for which it is entitled to reimbursement under this Agreement through the date of such sale and assignment. In the event that a replaced Purchaser does not execute an Assignment pursuant to Section 9.9 within five (5) Business Days after receipt by such replaced Purchaser of notice of replacement pursuant to this Section 9.22 and presentation to such replaced Purchaser of an Assignment evidencing an assignment pursuant to this Section 9.22, the Agent shall be entitled (but not obligated) to execute such an Assignment on behalf of such replaced Purchaser, and any such Assignment so executed by the Agent and the Replacement Purchaser, shall be effective for purposes of this Section 9.22 and Section 9.9. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to a Purchaser that is a Non-Funding Purchaser or an Impacted Purchaser, the Agent may obtain a Replacement Purchaser and execute an Assignment on behalf of such Non-Funding Purchaser or an Impacted Purchaser at any time and without prior notice to such Non-Funding Purchaser or an Impacted Purchaser and cause its Notes and Note Purchase Commitment to be sold and assigned at par. Upon any such assignment and payment and compliance with the other provisions of Section 9.9, such replaced Purchaser shall no longer constitute a “Purchaser” for purposes hereof; provided, any rights of such replaced Purchaser to indemnification hereunder shall survive.

9.23 Joint and Several. The obligations of the Note Parties hereunder and under the other Note Documents are joint and several. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, reference is hereby made to Article II of the Guaranty and Security Agreement, to which the obligations of Issuers and the other Note Parties are subject. Each Note Issuer acknowledges that it is jointly and severally liable for all of the Obligations and as a result hereby unconditionally guaranties the full and prompt payment when due, whether at maturity or earlier, by reason of acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of all Obligations of every kind and nature of each Issuer to the Purchasers howsoever created, arising or evidenced, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, joint or several, now or hereafter existing, or due or to become due, and howsoever owned, held or acquired by the Purchasers. Each Issuer agrees that if this guaranty would, but for the application of this sentence, be unenforceable under applicable law, this guaranty shall be valid and enforceable to the maximum extent that would not cause this guaranty to be unenforceable under applicable law, and this guaranty shall automatically be deemed to have been amended accordingly at all relevant times. Each Issuer hereby agrees that its obligations under this guaranty shall be unconditional, irrespective of (a) the validity or enforceability of the Obligations or any part thereof, or of any promissory note or other document evidencing all or any part of the Obligations, (b) the absence of any attempt to collect the Obligations from any other Issuer or any guarantor or other action to enforce the same, (c) the waiver or consent by any Purchaser or any other Person with respect to any provision of any agreement, instrument or document evidencing or securing all or any part of the Obligations, or any other agreement, instrument or document now or hereafter executed by any other Issuer and delivered to any Purchaser or any other Person (other than a waiver, forgiveness or consent by a Purchaser or other Person, as applicable, that reduces the amount of any of the Note Obligations to such Person), (d) intentionally omitted, (e) any Purchaser’s election, in any proceeding instituted under the Bankruptcy Code or any other similar bankruptcy or insolvency legislation, of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any other similar bankruptcy or insolvency legislation, (f) any borrowing by any Issuer as debtor-in-possession, under Section 364 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any other similar bankruptcy or insolvency legislation, (g) the disallowance, under ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Bankruptcy Code or any other similar bankruptcy or insolvency legislation, of all or any portion of any Purchaser’s claim(s) for repayment of the Obligations or (h) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of an Issuer or a guarantor (other than payment in full of the Note Obligations). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 9.23, it is the intent of the parties hereto that the liability incurred by each Issuer in respect of the Obligations of the other Issuers (and any Lien granted by each Issuer to secure such Obligations), not constitute a fraudulent conveyance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under the provisions of any applicable law of any state or other governmental unit (“Fraudulent Conveyance”). Consequently, each Issuer and each Purchaser hereby agree that if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the incurrence of liability by any Issuer in respect of the Obligations of any other Issuer (or any Liens granted by such Issuer to secure such Obligations) would, but for the application of this sentence, constitute a Fraudulent Conveyance, such liability (and such Liens) shall be valid and enforceable only to the maximum extent that would not cause the same to constitute a Fraudulent Conveyance, and this Agreement and the other Note Documents shall automatically be deemed to have been amended accordingly.

9.24 Creditor-Debtor Relationship. The relationship between Agent and each Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Note Parties, on the other hand, is solely that of creditor and debtor. No Secured Party has any fiduciary relationship or duty to any Note Party arising out of or in connection with, and there is no agency, tenancy or joint venture relationship between the Secured Parties and the Note Parties by virtue of, any Note Document or any transaction contemplated therein.

9.25 Actions in Concert. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, each Purchaser hereby agrees with each other Purchaser that no Purchaser shall take any action to protect or enforce its rights against any Note Party arising out of this Agreement or any other Note Document (including exercising any rights of setoff) without first obtaining the prior written consent of Agent or Required Purchasers, it being the intent of Purchasers that any such action to protect or enforce rights under this Agreement and the other Note Documents shall be taken in concert and at the direction or with the consent of Agent or Required Purchasers.

9.26 Representations and Warranties of Purchasers.

Each Purchaser represents and warrants (i) that it has been furnished with all information that it has requested for the purpose of evaluating such Purchaser’s proposed acquisition of the Notes to be issued to such Purchaser pursuant hereto, (ii) that (a) it is either (a) a qualified institutional buyer as defined in Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), (b) an institutional accredited investor (as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act (the “Rules”)) or (c) it is an entity in which all of the equity owners are institutional accredited investors as defined in the Rules; and (iii) that any securities purchased or received in connection herewith cannot be resold absent an exemption to the Securities Act or registration of such securities under the Securities Act. The acquisition of such Notes by each Purchaser at the Closing Date or on each Note Purchase Date shall constitute such Purchaser’s confirmation of the foregoing representations and warranties. Each Purchaser, and each assignee by its acceptance of a Note, understands that such Notes are being sold to such Purchaser in a transaction which is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and that, in making the representations and warranties contained in this Section 9.26, the Note Parties are relying, to the extent applicable, upon such Purchaser’s representations and warranties contained herein.

ARTICLE X
TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

10.1 Taxes.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 10.1, each payment by any Note Party under any Note Document shall be made free and clear of all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings imposed by any Governmental Authority and all liabilities with respect thereto (and without deduction for any of them) (collectively, but excluding the taxes set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) below, the “Taxes”) other than for (i) taxes measured by overall net income (however denominated, including branch profits taxes) and franchise taxes imposed in lieu of net income taxes, in each case imposed on any Secured Party by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) in which such Secured Party is organized, maintains its principal office or applicable Lending Office, or (ii) taxes that are directly attributable to the failure (other than as a result of a change in any Requirement of Law) by Agent or any Purchaser to deliver the documentation required to be delivered pursuant to clause (f) below.

(b) If any Taxes shall be required by law to be deducted from or in respect of any amount payable under any Note Document to any Secured Party (i) such amount shall be increased as necessary to ensure that, after all required deductions for Taxes are made (including deductions applicable to any increases to any amount under this Section 10.1), such Secured Party receives the amount it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the relevant Note Party shall make such deductions, (iii) the relevant Note Party shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law and (iv) within thirty (30) days after such payment is made, the relevant Note Party shall deliver to Agent an original or certified copy of a receipt evidencing such payment or other evidence of payment reasonably satisfactory to Agent; provided, however, that no such increase shall be made with respect to, and no Note Party shall be required to indemnify any Secured Party pursuant to clause (d) below for, (x) withholding taxes to the extent that the obligation to withhold amounts existed on the date that such Person became a “Secured Party” under this Agreement in the capacity under which such Person makes a claim under this clause (b), designates a new Lending Office or experiences a change in circumstances (other than a change in a Requirement of Law), except in each case to the extent such Person is a direct or indirect assignee (other than pursuant to Section 9.22) of any other Secured Party that was entitled, at the time the assignment to such Person became effective, or such Secured Party was entitled at the time of designation of a new Lending Office or change in circumstances, to receive additional amounts under this clause (b), or (y) any United States backup withholding tax required by the Code to be withheld from amounts payable to a Secured Party that is subject to backup withholding due to (A) notified payee underreporting of reportable interest or dividend payments or other reportable payments or (B) the IRS notifying Agent or Issuers that the furnished taxpayer identification number is incorrect.

(c) In addition, the Issuers agree to pay, and authorize Agent to pay in their name, any stamp, documentary, excise or property tax, charges or similar levies imposed by any applicable Requirement of Law or Governmental Authority and all Liabilities with respect thereto (including by reason of any delay in payment thereof), in each case arising from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Note Document or any transaction contemplated therein (collectively, “Other Taxes”). Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment of Other Taxes by any Note Party, the Issuers shall furnish to Agent, at its address referred to in Section 9.2, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof or other evidence of payment reasonably satisfactory to Agent.

(d) The Issuers shall reimburse and indemnify, within thirty (30) days after receipt of demand therefor (with copy to Agent), each Secured Party for all Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Taxes and Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 10.1) paid by such Secured Party and any Liabilities arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. A certificate of the Secured Party (or of Agent on behalf of such Secured Party) claiming any compensation under this clause (d), setting forth the amounts to be paid thereunder and delivered to the Issuer Representative with copy to Agent, shall be conclusive, binding and final for all purposes, absent manifest error. In determining such amount, Agent and such Secured Party may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

(e) Any Purchaser claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 10.1 shall use its commercially reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policies and Requirements of Law) to change the jurisdiction of its Lending Office if such a change would reduce any such additional amounts (or any similar amount that may thereafter accrue) and would not, in the sole determination of such Purchaser, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Purchaser. Additionally, no Purchaser shall be entitled to any payment under this Section 10.1 more than 120 days after such Purchaser received notice of its entitlement to such payment; provided, that the foregoing shall in no way operate in derogation of the undertaking contained in the last sentence of this subsection 10.1(e). In the event that any Purchaser determines that any event or circumstance that will lead to a claim for payment under this Section 10.1 has occurred or will occur, such Purchaser will use commercially reasonable efforts to so notify the Issuer Representative; provided, that any failure to provide such notice shall in no way impair the rights of such Purchaser to demand and receive payment under this Section 10.1.

(f) (i) Each Non-U.S. Purchaser Party that, at any of the following times, is entitled to an exemption from United States withholding tax or is subject to such withholding tax at a reduced rate under an applicable tax treaty, shall (w) on or prior to the date such Non-U.S. Purchaser Party becomes a “Non-U.S. Purchaser Party” hereunder, (x) on or prior to the date on which any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, (y) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or certification previously delivered by it-pursuant to this clause (i) and (z) from time to time if requested by the Issuers or Agent (or, in the case of a participant or SPV, the relevant Purchaser), provide Agent and the Issuer Representative (or, in the case of a participant or SPV, the relevant Purchaser) with two completed originals of each of the following, as applicable: (A) Forms W-8EC1 (claiming exemption from U.S. withholding tax because the income is effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business), W-8BEN (claiming exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. withholding tax under an income tax treaty) and/or W-8IMY (together with appropriate forms, certifications and supporting statements) or any successor forms, (B) in the case of a Non-U.S. Purchaser Party claiming exemption
