(a) Schedule 2.5(a) sets forth a list of the executory Contracts to which one or more Sellers is a party, together with estimated Cure Amounts for each Assumed Contract (the “Available Contracts”), which Schedule 2.5(a) may be updated to add Contracts entered into in the Ordinary Course of Business or otherwise not prohibited by this Agreement following the date hereof. By the date that is four (4) Business Days prior to the Closing (such date, the “Determination Deadline”), Buyer shall designate in writing (each such writing, a “Designation Notice”) which Available Contracts from Schedule 2.5(a) that Buyer wishes for Sellers to assume and assign to Buyer at the Closing (the “Assumed Contracts”). Buyer shall have the right to amend a Designation Notice in any respect at any time prior to the Determination Deadline. All Contracts of the Sellers that are listed on Schedule 2.5(a) and which Buyer does not designate in writing pursuant to a Designation Notice for assumption shall not constitute Assumed Contracts or Purchased Assets and shall automatically be deemed Excluded Assets; provided, however, that if an Available Contract is subject to a Cure Amount dispute or other dispute as to the assumption or assignment of such Available Contract that has not been resolved to the mutual satisfaction of Buyer and the Sellers prior to the Determination Deadline, then the Determination Deadline shall be extended (but only with respect to such Available Contract) to no later than the earlier of (A) the date on which such dispute has been resolved to the mutual satisfaction of Buyer and the Sellers, (B) the date on which such Available Contract is deemed rejected by operation of section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code and (C) the date upon which such dispute is finally determined by the Bankruptcy Court (the “Extended Contract Period”). If a Designation Notice with respect to such Available Contract is not delivered by Buyer in writing by the date which is three (3) Business Days following the expiration of such Extended Contract Period, such Available Contract shall be automatically deemed an Excluded Asset. For the avoidance of doubt, except as set forth in Section 2.3, Buyer shall not assume or otherwise have any Liability with respect to any Excluded Asset. At Buyer’s reasonable request, the Sellers shall make reasonably available to Buyer the appropriate employees of the Sellers necessary to discuss the outstanding Available Contracts. (b) The Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take all actions required by the Bankruptcy Court to obtain an Order (which shall be the Sale Order, unless as otherwise determined by Buyer) containing a finding that the proposed assumption and assignment of the Assumed Contracts to Buyer satisfies all applicable requirements of section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code.

25 (c) At the Closing, the Sellers shall, pursuant to the Sale Order and the Bill of Sale and Assignment and Assumption Agreement, assume and assign, or cause to be assigned, to Buyer, each of the Assumed Contracts that is capable of being assumed and assigned as of such date. (d) Buyer will cooperate with the Sellers in communicating with third parties to Available Contracts as may be reasonably necessary to assist the Sellers in establishing that Buyer has satisfied the requirement of adequate assurance of future performance contained in sections 365(b)(1)(C) and 365(f) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the applicable Available Contracts. (e) In the event Sellers are unable to assign any such Assumed Contract to Buyer without the consent of another Person, then the Parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, and to cooperate in obtaining, all required consents necessary to assume and assign such Assumed Contracts to Buyer; provided that Sellers shall not be required to expend any money. (f) Within three (3) Business Days after entry of the Bidding Procedures Order or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, the Sellers shall file a list of the Available Contracts (the “Assumption Notice”) with the Bankruptcy Court and shall serve such Assumption Notice via first class mail on each counterparty to an Available Contract listed thereon. The Assumption Notice shall identify all Available Contracts and set forth a good faith estimate of the amount of the Cure Amounts applicable to each such Contract. (g) Not later than three (3) Business Days following the Determination Deadline, Sellers shall file with the Bankruptcy Court an amended and restated Assumption Notice, which notice shall set forth only the Assumed Contracts (and exclude all other Available Contracts). (h) On the Closing Date, with respect to Cure Amounts not disputed as of the Closing Date, the Buyer shall pay all Cure Amounts to the applicable counterparty and Sellers shall have no Liability therefor. With respect to Cure Amounts that are disputed as of the Closing Date, the Parties shall cooperate and diligently pursue resolution of such disputes. Upon the resolution of any disputed Cure Amount following the Closing, the Buyer shall pay such Cure Amount promptly, and in no event later than three (3) Business Days following such resolution. (i) Upon payment by Buyer of all Cure Amounts, all defaults under the Assumed Contracts (monetary or otherwise) shall be deemed cured. (j) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, from and after the date hereof through the Closing, the Sellers will not reject or take any action (or fail to take any action that would result in rejection by operation of Law) to reject, repudiate or disclaim any Contract without the prior written consent of Buyer. (k) Previously Omitted Contracts. (i) If prior to the Determination Deadline, it is discovered by any Party that a Contract should have been listed on Schedule 2.5(a) but was not listed on Schedule 2.5(a)

26 and has not been rejected by the Sellers (any such Contract, a “Previously Omitted Contract”), the discovering Party shall, promptly following the discovery thereof (but in no event later than two (2) Business Days following the discovery thereof), notify the other Parties in writing of such Previously Omitted Contract and then the Sellers shall, promptly following such notification (but in no event later than two (2) Business Days following such notification), notify Buyer of Sellers’ good faith estimate of all Cure Amounts (if any) for such Previously Omitted Contract. Buyer may thereafter deliver a Designation Notice to Sellers, no later than the earlier of (x) the Determination Deadline or the expiration of the Extended Contract Period, as applicable, and (y) five (5) Business Days following notification of such Previously Omitted Contract from the Seller with respect to such Previously Omitted Contract and such contract shall be an Assumed Contract under this Agreement. All Previously Omitted Contracts with respect to which ▇▇▇▇▇ fails to timely deliver a Designation Notice shall be an Excluded Asset. (ii) If Buyer delivers a Designation Notice in accordance with Section 2.5(k)(i), the Sellers shall serve a notice (the “Previously Omitted Contract Notice”) on the counterparties to such Previously Omitted Contract notifying such counterparties of the Cure Amounts with respect to such Previously Omitted Contract and the Sellers’ intention to assume and assign such Previously Omitted Contract in accordance with this Section 2.5. The Previously Omitted Contract Notice shall provide the counterparties to such Previously Omitted Contract with ten (10) Business Days to object, in writing to the Sellers and Buyer, to the Cure Amounts or the assumption of its Contract. If the counterparties, the Sellers and Buyer are unable to reach a consensual resolution with respect to the objection, the Sellers shall seek an expedited hearing before the Bankruptcy Court to determine the Cure Amounts and approve the assumption. If no objection is served on the Sellers and Buyer, the Sellers shall obtain an order of the Bankruptcy Court fixing the Cure Amounts and approving the assumption of the Previously Omitted Contract. Buyer shall be responsible for all Cure Amounts relating to such Previously Omitted Contracts. ARTICLE III CLOSING AND PURCHASE PRICE 3.1 Closing; Transfer of Possession; Certain Deliveries. (a) Unless this Agreement shall have been terminated and the Transactions shall have been abandoned pursuant to Article IX, the Closing shall take place at 10:00 a.m. (prevailing Eastern Time) on the date (the “Closing Date”) that is two (2) Business Days after all the conditions set forth in Article VIII shall have been satisfied or waived (excluding, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of, conditions that, by their nature, are to be satisfied at the Closing), or such other time or date as agreed to in writing by the Parties.

If Sellers timely deliver to Buyer a Seller Allocation Objection Notice, then Buyer and Sellers shall work together in good faith to resolve the disputed items. If Buyer and Sellers are unable to resolve all of the disputed items within thirty (30) calendar days of ▇▇▇▇▇’s receipt of the Seller Allocation Objection Notice (or such later date as Buyer and Sellers may agree), then Buyer and Sellers shall refer the disputed items for resolution to an accounting firm of national reputation mutually acceptable to Buyer and Sellers, with no existing relationship with either Buyer or Sellers and such accounting firm shall determine the final allocation in accordance with such allocation methodology. Buyer and Sellers shall file all applicable Tax Returns (including Form 8594, any amended Tax Returns, and any claims for refund) consistent with the Allocation Schedule (as finally determined) and shall take no position contrary thereto or inconsistent therewith (including in any audits or examinations by any taxing authority or any other proceedings) absent a contrary “determination” (within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code). 3.4 Withholding.

29 amount shall be treated as though it had been paid to the Person in respect of which such withholding was required. ARTICLE IV REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SELLERS Except (i) as disclosed in any document filed or furnished prior to the date hereof by the Borrower with the SEC, other than in any “risk factors” or “forward-looking statements” sections therein to the extent such disclosures are primarily predictive, cautionary or forward looking in nature and (ii) as set forth in the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedules, each of the Sellers hereby jointly and severally makes the following representations and warranties to Buyer with respect to itself and each other Seller as of the Agreement Date: 4.1 Organization and Good Standing.

As of the Agreement Date, subject to requisite Bankruptcy Court approvals and assumption by the applicable Seller of the applicable Contract in accordance with applicable Law (including satisfaction any applicable Cure Amounts) and except (i) as a result of the commencement of the Cases, and (ii) with respect to any Contract that has previously expired in accordance with its terms, been terminated, restated, or replaced: (a) each Available Contract is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Seller that is a party thereto, and is enforceable against such Seller in accordance with its terms and, to the Knowledge of the Sellers, is a legal, valid and binding obligation of each other party to such Contract and is enforceable against such other party thereto in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy Laws and general equitable principles; (b) no Seller that is a party to any Available Contract, or any other party to an Available Contract is in default or breach of an Available Contract; (c) to the

(a) Subject to applicable Law, until the Closing Date, the Sellers (i) shall give Buyer and its Representatives reasonable access during normal business hours to the offices, assets, contracts, properties, officers, employees, accountants, auditors, financial advisors, counsel (other than counsel to the Sellers in connection with the Cases) and other representatives, books and records, of the Sellers and their Affiliates, (ii) shall furnish to Buyer and its Representatives such financial, operating and property related data and other information as such Persons reasonably request, (iii) shall instruct the employees, accountants, counsel and financial advisors of the Sellers and their Affiliates to cooperate reasonably with Buyer in its investigation of the Business; and (iv) shall, upon reasonable request of Buyer, use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Buyer with access to their customers, suppliers, vendors, distributors, manufacturers and other Persons with whom the Business has had material dealings. No investigation by Buyer prior to or after the date of this Agreement shall diminish or obviate any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the Sellers contained in this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 6.3(a) shall require Sellers to take any such action if (i) such action may result in a waiver or breach of any attorney/client privilege or (ii) such action could reasonably be expected to result in violation of applicable Law or Order. (b) From and after the Closing Date until the conclusion of the Cases, Buyer shall give the Sellers and the Sellers’ Representatives reasonable access during normal business hours to the books and records pertaining to the Purchased Assets and Assumed Liabilities, for the purposes of (i) the preparation or amendment of Tax Returns, (ii) the determination of any matter relating to the rights or obligations of the Sellers under this Agreement, or (iii) as is necessary to administer, or satisfy their obligations in connection with, the Cases. Buyer shall, and shall cause each of its controlled Affiliates to, cooperate with the Sellers as may reasonably be requested by the Sellers for such purposes. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 6.3(b) shall require Buyer to take any such action if (i) such action may result in a waiver or breach of any attorney/client privilege, (ii) such action could reasonably be expected to result in violation of applicable Law or Order, or (iii) providing such access or information would be reasonably expected to be disruptive to its normal business operations. Unless otherwise consented to in writing by the Sellers, Buyer will not, for a period of three (3) years following the Closing Date, destroy, alter or otherwise dispose of any of the books and records without first offering to

45 surrender to the Sellers such books and records or any portion thereof that ▇▇▇▇▇ may intend to destroy, alter or dispose of. From and after the Closing, Buyer will, and will cause its employees to, provide Sellers with reasonable assistance, support and cooperation with Sellers’ wind-down and related activities (e.g., helping to locate documents or information related to preparation of Tax Returns or prosecution or processing of insurance/benefit claims). (c) The information provided pursuant to this Section 6.3 will be used solely for the purpose of consummating the transactions contemplated hereby, and will be governed by all the terms and conditions of Section 12.19 of the Prepetition Financing Agreement. None of Sellers makes any representation or warranty as to the accuracy of any information, if any, provided pursuant to this Section 6.3, and Buyer may not rely on the accuracy of any such information, in each case, other than the Express Representations. 6.4 Confidentiality. From and after the Closing Date: (a) the Sellers will treat and hold as confidential all of the Confidential Information, and will not, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of Buyer, disclose or use any Confidential Information, except as required by Law. The Sellers’ obligation not to disclose Confidential Information shall not apply to Confidential Information that it shall be required to disclose by Law; provided, however, that, prior to making such disclosure, the Sellers shall notify Buyer promptly to the extent not prohibited by Law so that Buyer may seek confidential treatment or protection of such Confidential Information at Buyer’s sole cost and expense; and (b) in the event that the Sellers are required in any Proceeding to disclose any Confidential Information, the Sellers will notify Buyer promptly of the requirement to the extent not prohibited by Law so that Buyer may seek an appropriate protective order at Buyer’s sole cost and expense or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 6.4. 6.5 Public Announcements. From the Agreement Date, Buyer and the Sellers will consult with each other before issuing, and provide each other the reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon, any press release, any court filing or pleading filed with the Bankruptcy Court relating primarily to this Agreement or the Transactions, or other public statements with respect to the Transactions, and neither Buyer nor the Sellers shall issue any such press release or make any such public statement without the prior written approval of the other Party, in each case except as may be required by Law, or by obligations pursuant to any listing agreement with any national securities exchange. Sellers shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to cause their respective Affiliates, employees, officers and directors to comply with this Section 6.5. 6.6 [Employment Matters. (a) Prior to Closing, Buyer may in its sole discretion (following consultation with the executive management of Sellers) provide an offer of employment to each Business Employee who remains employed as of such date, which offer shall provide for (i) a base salary or hourly wage rate that is no less than the base salary set forth on Schedule 4.10(a), (ii) target incentive cash bonus opportunities that are comparable in the aggregate to those set forth on

46 Schedule 4.10(a), and (iii) such other terms and conditions determined by Buyer in its sole discretion. (b) Buyer shall provide credit to Hired Employees under ▇▇▇▇▇’s paid time off plans for all accrued but unused paid time off days as of the Closing, except to the extent that Hired Employees receive payment for such paid time off days in connection with the Closing. (c) Following the Closing, Buyer shall give each Hired Employee full credit for prior service with the Sellers for purposes of (i) eligibility and vesting under any health or welfare Benefit Plans of Buyer (for the avoidance of doubt, excluding defined benefit pension accruals, deferred compensation, or equity or equity-based incentive plans, or any plan under which such crediting would be prohibited), and (ii) determination of benefit levels under any employee benefit plans of Buyer relating to paid time off, in each case, for which the Hired Employee is otherwise eligible and in which the Hired Employee is offered participation, except where such credit would result in a duplication of benefits. Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to waive, or cause to be waived, any limitations on benefits relating to pre-existing conditions to the same extent such limitations are waived under any comparable plan of the Sellers and use commercially reasonable efforts to recognize for purposes of annual deductible and out-of-pocket limits under its medical and dental plans, deductible and out-of-pocket expenses paid by Hired Employees in the calendar year in which the Closing Date occurs. (d) Without limiting the generality of Section 2.4, each Seller shall retain responsibility for, and satisfy all Liabilities with respect to, all payments and benefits of the employees (and their spouses, dependents and beneficiaries, and all former employees, agents and representatives) under Benefit Plans (other than any Assumed Benefit Plan) accrued up to the Closing Date or which relate to events prior to the Closing Date in accordance with the terms thereof and applicable Laws. The Seller and Buyer shall work in good faith to transfer sponsorship of any Assumed Benefit Plan (including any third party insurance contracts or services agreements thereto) from Seller to Buyer or its Affiliates. (e) Without limiting the generality of Article II, each Seller shall be responsible for the following claims or benefit payments of all employees (and their spouses, dependents and beneficiaries, and all former employees, agents and representatives) accrued up to the Closing Date or which related to events prior to the Closing Date regardless of whether such claims are filed before or after the Closing Date under each Benefit Plan (other than any Assumed Benefit Plan): (i) with respect to death or dismemberment claims, those in respect of which the event occurred prior to the Closing Date; (ii) with respect to health claims, those in respect of which the services were provided or the supplies were purchased prior to the Closing Date; and (iii) with respect to short term and/or long term disability claims and workers’ compensation claims, for those claims resulting from events that occurred prior to the Closing Date, including, to the extent covered under the Benefit Plans, for recurring illnesses which first originated with events occurring prior to the Closing Date, whether or not such claims continue after the Closing Date.

47 (f) This Section 6.6 shall operate exclusively for the benefit of the Sellers and Buyer and not for the benefit of any other Person, including any current or former employees of the Sellers or the Hired Employees, which Persons shall have no rights to enforce this Section 6.6. Nothing in this Section 6.6 shall: (i) entitle any Hired Employee to employment with Buyer; (ii) change such Hired Employee’s status as an employee-at-will or restrict the ability of Buyer to terminate the service of any Hired Employee at any time or for any reason; (iii) create any third party rights in any current or former service provider of the Sellers (including any beneficiary or dependent thereof); or (iv) be treated as an amendment of any Benefit Plan or other employee benefit plan or arrangement or restrict the ability of Buyer, the Sellers or any of their respective Affiliates to amend, modify, discontinue or terminate any Benefit Plan or other employee benefit plan or arrangement. (g) For any Hired Employees who are principally based outside the United States, the provisions of this Section 6.6 shall apply to such employees mutatis mutandis to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law. (h) On or prior to the Closing Date, Buyer shall, or shall cause an Affiliate to, assume the sponsorship of each Benefit Plan set forth on Schedule 6.6(h) (each, an “Assumed Benefit Plan”). From and after the Closing Date, Buyer shall, or shall cause an Affiliate to, continue the Assumed Benefit Plans and honor all such obligations relating to the Assumed Benefit Plans in accordance with their terms and applicable Legal Requirements.] 6.7 Reasonable Efforts; Approvals. (a) Buyer and the Sellers will use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and use reasonable best efforts to do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other Parties in doing, all things which are necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective the Transactions including: (i) the transfer, modification or reissuance of all Permits, (ii) the obtaining or taking of all other necessary actions, non-actions or waivers from Governmental Entities and the making of all other necessary registrations and filings with Governmental Entities (including any Regulatory Authorizations), and (iii) the execution and delivery of any additional certificates, agreements, instruments, reports, schedules, statements, consents, documents and information necessary to consummate the Transactions. The covenants in this Section 6.7(a) shall survive the Closing. (b) In furtherance of the foregoing, Buyer and each Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any consents and approvals from any third party other than a Governmental Entity that may be required in connection with the Transactions (the “Third Party Consents”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the Sellers shall not be required to compensate any applicable third party, commence or participate in any Proceeding or offer or grant any accommodation (financial or otherwise, including any accommodation or arrangement to indemnify, remain primarily, secondarily or contingently liable for any Assumed Liability) to any applicable third party in connection with the Sellers’ obligations under this Section 6.7(b); provided, that the Sellers shall obtain the written consent of Buyer prior to any Seller paying any such compensation, commencing or participating in any Proceeding, or offering or granting any such accommodation. The covenants in this Section 6.7(b) shall survive the Closing.

48 (c) The obligations of the Sellers pursuant to this Section 6.7 shall be subject to any Orders entered, or approvals or authorizations granted or required, by or under the Bankruptcy Court or the Bankruptcy Code (including in connection with the Cases), the DIP Facility, and each of Sellers’ obligations as a debtor-in-possession to comply with any Order of the Bankruptcy Court (including the Bidding Procedures Order and the Sale Order) and Sellers’ duty to seek and obtain the highest or otherwise best price for the Acquired Assets as required by the Bankruptcy Code. (d) Promptly following the Closing, at ▇▇▇▇▇’s sole cost and expense, Sellers shall take such further actions and execute such further documents as may be necessary or reasonably requested by Buyer or Sellers to effectuate, evidence and perfect the assignment and transfer of the Owned Intellectual Property to Buyer, including making such filings with any Governmental Entities as may be required to transfer the Owned Intellectual Property to Buyer or to further the prosecution, issuance or maintenance of the Owned Intellectual Property. (e) This Section 6.7 shall not apply to filings or consents under Antitrust Laws, which shall be governed by the obligations set forth in Section 6.12. 6.8 Corporate Name Change. Within forty-five (45) days following the Closing, each Seller shall deliver to Buyer a duly executed certificate of amendment to such Seller’s certificate of incorporation or other Organizational Document which is required to change such Seller’s corporate or other entity name to a new name that is not confusingly similar to such Seller’s present name and, in all cases, does not include the name “[Troika]”, “[Converge]” or “[Lacuna]” so as to avoid confusion and to make each Seller’s present name available to Buyer. Buyer and any Affiliate of Buyer are hereby authorized (but not obligated) to file such certificates or other documents (at Buyer’s expense) with the applicable Governmental Entities in order to effectuate such change of name at or after the Closing as Buyer may elect. 6.9 Assignment of Contracts and Rights. To the maximum extent permitted by the Bankruptcy Code, the Purchased Assets of the Sellers shall be assumed and assigned to Buyer pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code as of the Closing Date or such other date as specified in the Sale Order or this Agreement, as applicable. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign any asset or any right thereunder if, after giving effect to the Sale Order, an attempted assignment without the consent of a third party (including any Governmental Entity) would constitute a breach or in any way adversely affect the rights of Buyer following the Closing. If, as of the Closing Date, such consent is not obtained or such assignment is not attainable pursuant to sections 105, 363 or 365 of the Bankruptcy Code other than as a result of the failure by the Buyer to pay or otherwise satisfy all Cure Amounts, then the Sellers and Buyer will, for a period of sixty (60) days following the Closing, cooperate in a mutually agreeable arrangement, to the extent feasible (without infringing upon the legal rights of any third party or violating any Law), under which ▇▇▇▇▇ would obtain the benefits and assume the obligations (to the extent otherwise constituting Assumed Liabilities hereunder) thereunder in accordance with this Agreement, including subcontracting, sublicensing or subleasing to Buyer, or under which the Sellers would enforce for the benefit of, and at the direction of, Buyer, with Buyer assuming all of the Sellers’ obligations (to the extent constituting Assumed Liabilities hereunder), and any and all rights of the Sellers thereunder.

49 6.10 Tax Matters. (a) Subject to Section 2.3(i), all Transfer Taxes arising out of the transfer of the Purchased Assets and any Transfer Taxes required to effect any recording or filing with respect thereto shall be borne by Buyer. The Transfer Taxes shall be calculated assuming that no exemption from Transfer Taxes is available, unless otherwise indicated in the Sale Order or, at Closing, the Sellers or Buyer, as appropriate, provide an appropriate resale exemption certificate or other evidence acceptable to Buyer or the Sellers, as appropriate, of exemption from such Transfer Taxes. The Sellers and Buyer shall cooperate to timely prepare and file any Tax Returns relating to such Transfer Taxes, including any claim for exemption or exclusion from the application or imposition of any Transfer Taxes. Each Party shall file all necessary documentation and returns that it is required by Law to file with respect to such Transfer Taxes when due, and shall promptly, following the filing thereof, furnish a copy of such return or other filing and a copy of a receipt showing payment of any such Transfer Tax to the other party. Each Party shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the other, upon request, as promptly as practicable, such information and assistance relating to the Purchased Assets and the Business as is reasonably necessary for filing of all Tax Returns, including any claim for exemption or exclusion from the application or imposition of any Taxes or making of any election related to Taxes, the preparation for any audit by any taxing authority and the prosecution or defense of any claim, suit or proceeding relating to any Tax Return. (b) Other than Transfer Taxes, all Liability for Taxes with respect to the Business or the Purchased Assets attributable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be borne by the Sellers, and all Liability for Taxes with respect to the Purchased Assets attributable to the Post- Closing Tax Period shall be borne by Buyer. For purposes of this Agreement, with respect to Taxes attributable to any taxable year or other taxable period beginning on or before and ending after the Closing Date, the portion of any such Taxes allocated to a Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be: (i) in the case of Taxes based upon, or related to income, receipts, profits, or wages or imposed in connection with the sale, transfer or assignment of property, or required to be withheld, deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if such taxable year or other taxable period ended on the Closing Date, and (ii) in the case of other Taxes deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire period. (c) The Parties agree that the transfer of the Purchased Assets to the Buyer is intended to be treated as a taxable acquisition of assets and the Parties shall prepare and file all relevant U.S. federal income Tax Returns consistent with such intended treatment and Section 3.3, respectively, absent a contrary “determination” (within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code). (d) The obligations set forth in this Section 6.10 with respect to Taxes shall survive until the date that is thirty (30) days following the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations.

50 6.11 Available Contracts List. Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Buyer with a true and correct list of all Available Contracts (and copies thereof) promptly following the date hereof and in no event later thirty (30) days from the Agreement Date. 6.12 HSR Act; Antitrust Laws. (a) Sellers and Buyer shall, if required in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, (i) promptly make the filings required by any Governmental Entity, including under the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Laws and, in any event, within ten (10) Business Days after the Agreement Date in the case of all filings required under the HSR Act and all other filings required by other Antitrust Laws, (ii) comply at the earliest practicable date with any request for additional information, documents or other materials received from any Governmental Entity, whether such request is formal or informal, (iii) cooperate with the other Parties in connection with resolving any investigation or other inquiry concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement commenced by any Governmental Entity, and (iv) cooperate with the other Parties in connection with any other Party’s filing. Each Party shall be responsible for the payment of its respective fees and expenses, including legal fees and expenses, in complying with any request for additional information or documentary material from any Governmental Entity; provided that all filing fees required to be paid in connection with any filings hereunder shall be borne equally by Sellers and Buyer. Except where prohibited by applicable Law or any Governmental Entity, and subject to Section 6.4, each Party shall promptly inform the other Parties of any oral communication with, and provide copies of written communications with, any Governmental Entity regarding any such filing. No Party shall agree to participate in any formal meeting with any Governmental Entity in respect of any such filings, investigation, or other inquiry without giving the other Parties prior notice of the meeting and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Entity, the opportunity to attend and/or participate. Subject to applicable Laws and any Governmental Entity, the Parties will coordinate, consult and cooperate with one another in connection with any analyses, appearances, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments, opinions and proposals made or submitted by or on behalf of any Party relating to proceedings under the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Law, if any. Except where prohibited by applicable Law or any Governmental Entity, and subject to Section 6.4, the Parties will provide each other with copies of all correspondence, filings or communications, including any documents, information and data contained therewith, between them or any of their representatives, on the one hand, and any Governmental Entity or members of its staff, on the other hand, with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. (b) Buyer and each Seller shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to obtain any required approval from any Governmental Entity and to resolve such objections, if any, as may be asserted by any Governmental Entity with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under the HSR Act, the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Act, as amended, the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Act, as amended, the Federal Trade Commission Act, as amended, and any other United States federal or state or foreign Laws that are designed to prohibit, restrict or regulate actions having the purpose or effect of monopolization or restraint of trade (collectively, the “Antitrust Laws”). Buyer and each Seller shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to take such action as may be required to cause the expiration of the notice periods under the HSR Act or other Antitrust Laws with respect to such transactions as promptly as practicable after the execution of this Agreement.

51 ARTICLE VII BANKRUPTCY PROVISIONS 7.1 Expense Reimbursement. In consideration for Buyer having expended considerable time and expense in connection with this Agreement and the negotiation thereof and the identification and quantification of assets of the Sellers, if this Agreement is validly terminated for any reason other than Section 9.1(c)(i) or Section 9.1(c)(iii)(A), the Sellers shall pay Buyer, if approved by the Bankruptcy Court, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (including Section 9.2) and the Bidding Procedures Order an aggregate amount equal to the Expense Reimbursement; provided, however, if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9.1(b)(vi), Section 9.1(b)(vii) or Section 9.1(c)(ii), any such Expense Reimbursement shall only be due and payable upon consummation of an Alternate Transaction from the proceeds of such Alternate Transaction. Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that the agreements contained in this Section 7.1 are an integral part of the Transactions and this Agreement and that the Expense Reimbursement is not a penalty, but rather is liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will reasonably compensate Buyer in the circumstances in which such Expense Reimbursement is payable for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone by Buyer while negotiating and pursuing the Transactions and this Agreement and in reasonable reliance on this Agreement and on the reasonable expectation of the consummation of the Transactions, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision. In accordance with Section 7.3, Sellers shall file with and seek the entry by the Bankruptcy Court of the Bidding Procedures Order approving the payment of the Expense Reimbursement. If payment of the Expense Reimbursement is authorized and approved by the Bankruptcy Court in the Bidding Procedures Order, the claim of Buyer in respect of the Expense Reimbursement shall constitute an allowed administrative expense claim against each of the Sellers under sections 503(b) and 507(a)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code in the Cases (without the need to file a proof of claim). The Expense Reimbursement shall be payable on a joint and several basis by the Sellers. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall limit the Administrative Agents’ or ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’ right to obtain reimbursement of their reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses under the Interim DIP Order, Final DIP Order, DIP Documents or Loan Documents, all in accordance with the terms set forth therein. 7.2 Bankruptcy Court Orders and Related Matters. (a) The Sellers and ▇▇▇▇▇ acknowledge that this Agreement and the Transactions are subject to entry of, as applicable, the Bidding Procedures Order and the Sale Order. In the event of any discrepancy between this Agreement and the Bidding Procedures Order and the Sale Order, the Bidding Procedures Order and the Sale Order shall govern. In the event the entry of the Sale Order or the Bidding Procedures Order is appealed, Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to defend such appeal, and Buyer shall cooperate in such efforts. Buyer and Sellers acknowledge that Sellers must take reasonable steps to demonstrate that they have sought to obtain the highest or otherwise best offer for the Purchased Assets, including giving notice thereof to the creditors of Sellers and other interested parties, providing information about Sellers’ business to prospective bidders, entertaining higher or otherwise better offers from such prospective bidders, and, in the event that additional qualified prospective bidders desire to bid for the Purchased Assets, conducting the Auction. ▇▇▇▇▇ agrees and acknowledges that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and their Affiliates will be permitted, and will be permitted to cause their Representatives, to initiate contact with, solicit or encourage submission of any inquiries, proposals or offers by, respond to

52 any unsolicited inquiries, proposals or offers submitted by, and enter into any discussions or negotiations regarding any of the foregoing with, any Person (in addition to Buyer and its Affiliates, agents and Representatives). (b) The bidding procedures to be employed with respect to this Agreement and the Auction will be those reflected in the Bidding Procedures Order. (c) Buyer shall take all actions as may be reasonably necessary to cause the Bidding Procedures Order and Sale Order to be issued, entered and become Final Orders, including furnishing affidavits, declarations or other documents or information for filing with the Bankruptcy Court; provided that the costs related to such actions shall be cover by Section 7.1 hereof. ▇▇▇▇▇ agrees that it will promptly take such actions as are reasonably requested by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ to assist in obtaining entry of the Bidding Procedures Order and Sale Order and a finding of adequate assurance of future performance by ▇▇▇▇▇. Buyer will provide adequate evidence and assurance under the Bankruptcy Code of the future performance by ▇▇▇▇▇ of each Assumed Contract. Buyer will, and will cause its Affiliates to, reasonably promptly take all actions reasonably required or requested by Sellers to assist in obtaining a Bankruptcy Court finding that there has been an adequate demonstration of adequate assurance of future performance under the Assumed Contracts, such as furnishing affidavits, non-confidential financial information and other documents or information for filing with the Bankruptcy Court and making Buyer’s Representatives available to testify before the Bankruptcy Court. Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, Buyer will, from and after the Closing Date, (i) assume all Liabilities of Sellers under the Assumed Contracts and (ii) satisfy and perform all of the Liabilities related to each of the Assumed Contracts when the same are due thereunder. (d) The Sellers shall, consistent with their respective obligations as fiduciaries under the Bankruptcy Code, cooperate with Buyer concerning the Bidding Procedures Order, the Sale Order, and any other orders of the Bankruptcy Court relating to the Transactions. The Sellers shall give notice under the Bankruptcy Code of the request for the relief specified in the Bidding Procedures Motion to all creditors and parties in interest entitled to notice thereof pursuant to the Bidding Procedures Order, the Bankruptcy Code and the Bankruptcy Rules, including all Persons that have asserted Liens on any Seller’s assets, and all non-debtor parties to the Available Contracts of the Sellers and other appropriate notice, including such additional notice as the Bankruptcy Court shall direct or as Buyer may reasonably request, and provide appropriate opportunity for hearing, to all parties entitled thereto, of all motions, orders, hearings, or other Proceedings in the Bankruptcy Court relating to this Agreement, the Transactions and the Bidding Procedures Motion. (e) The Sellers shall provide draft copies of all orders, motions, pleading, applications and other material documents they intend to file with the Bankruptcy Court in connection with the sale of the Purchased Assets or the Transactions not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the date when the Sellers plan to file such document (provided, that if the delivery of such drafts at least three (3) Business Days is not reasonably practicable, such drafts shall be delivered to Buyer as soon as reasonable practicable prior to filing). The form and substance of any such document hereunder shall be mutually acceptable to Sellers and Buyer (provided that no party shall unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its consent).

53 (f) Subject to the Sellers exercising their rights pursuant to this Section 7.2, the Sellers shall not, and shall cause their subsidiaries not to, take any action that is intended to result in, or fail to take any action that is intended to result in, or fail to take any action the intent of which failure to act would reasonably be expected to result in, the reversal, voiding, modification or staying of the Bidding Procedures Order or, if applicable, if Buyer is the prevailing bidder at the Auction, the Sale Order. The Sellers shall, and shall cause their subsidiaries to, comply with the Bidding Procedures Order and the Sale Order. (g) For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement will restrict Sellers or their Affiliates from selling, disposing of or otherwise transferring any Excluded Assets (other than Available Contracts, which the Sellers may not terminate, amend or otherwise dispose of, or reject in the Cases, without Buyer’s consent) or from settling, delegating or otherwise transferring any Excluded Liabilities, in each case, with the approval of the Bankruptcy Court, or from entering into discussions or agreements with respect to the foregoing. 7.3 Bankruptcy Milestones. The Sellers shall use their reasonable best efforts to achieve the following milestones by the dates set forth below (or such later date as may be agreed by ▇▇▇▇▇) (collectively, the “Bankruptcy Milestones”): (a) On the Petition Date, the Debtors shall file a motion with the Bankruptcy Court seeking approval of the DIP Facility. (b) On the Petition Date, the Debtors shall have filed the Bidding Procedures Motion with the Bankruptcy Court. (c) On or before the date that is four (4) days after the Petition Date, the Bankruptcy Court shall have entered the Interim DIP Order. (d) On or before the date that is thirty (30) days after the Petition Date, the Bankruptcy Court shall have entered the Bidding Procedures Order and the Final DIP Order.

(b) Performance of Obligations. Each of the Sellers shall have performed in all material respects all obligations and agreements contained in this Agreement required to be performed by it on or prior to the Closing Date.

The representations of Buyer contained in Section 5.1 (Organization and Good Standing), Section 5.2 (Power and Authority) and Section 5.6 (Financial Advisors) shall be true and correct on the date hereof and on and as of the Closing Date, with the same force and effect as though such representations and warranties had been made on and as of the Closing Date (except to the extent that any such representation or warranty is expressly made as of a specified date). All other representations and warranties contained in Article V shall be true and correct on the date hereof and as of the Closing Date (except to the extent that any such representation or warranty is expressly made as of a specified date), except where the failure of any such representations or warranties to be true and correct (without giving effect to any limitations to “material” or similar qualifier), either individually or in the aggregate, has resulted in or would reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on Buyer’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement in any material respect.

The respective obligations of Buyer and the Sellers to consummate the Transactions are subject to the fulfillment, on or prior to the Closing Date, of the condition (which may be waived by the Parties in whole or in part to the extent permitted by applicable Law) that (a) no provision of any applicable Law or Order enacted, entered, promulgated, enforced or issued by any Governmental Entity shall be in effect that prevents, renders illegal or otherwise prohibits the sale and purchase of the Purchased Assets or any of the other Transactions, and (b) the waiting period applicable to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under the HSR Act and any other applicable Antitrust Laws, if required, shall have expired or early termination shall have been granted. 8.4 Frustration of Closing Conditions. Upon the occurrence of the Closing, any condition set forth in Article VIII that was not satisfied as of the Closing will be deemed to have been waived for all purposes by the Party having the benefit of such condition as of and after the

56 Closing. Neither the Sellers nor Buyer may rely on the failure of any condition to their respective obligations to consummate the Transactions set forth in Section 8.1, Section 8.2 or Section 8.3, as the case may be, to be satisfied if such failure was caused by such Party’s failure to comply with or breach of any provision of this Agreement. ARTICLE IX TERMINATION 9.1 Termination of Agreement.

57 reasonably acceptable to the Buyer within ten (10) Business Days of such cessation of involvement; or (x) The CMS MSA is terminated in accordance with its terms or either party thereto is in material breach of such agreement. (c) by the Sellers, if: (i) there shall have been a breach by Buyer of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, which breach would result in the failure to satisfy one or more of the conditions set forth in Section 8.2, and such breach shall be incapable of being cured or, if capable of being cured, shall not have been cured within the earlier of (A) Outside Date or (B) twenty (20) Business Days after written notice thereof shall have been received by Buyer; (ii) any Seller enters into a definitive agreement with respect to an Alternate Transaction that is a Competing Qualified Bid, or an Order of the Bankruptcy Court or other court of competent jurisdiction is entered approving an Alternate Transaction that is a Competing Qualified Bid; or (iii) (A) (i) all of the conditions set forth in Sections 8.1 and 8.3 are satisfied or waived by Buyer as of the Closing Date (other than those conditions that, by their nature, can only be satisfied as of the Closing Date, but which would be satisfied as of the Closing Date); (ii) Sellers have irrevocably notified Buyer in writing that (A) they are ready, willing and able to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (B) all conditions set forth in Section 8.2 have been satisfied (other than those conditions that, by their nature, can only be satisfied as of the Closing Date, but which would be satisfied as of the Closing Date) or that they are willing to irrevocably waive any unsatisfied conditions set forth in Section 8.2; (iii) Sellers have given Buyer written notice at least two (2) Business Days prior to such termination stating Sellers’ intention to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1(c)(iii); and (iv) Buyer does not provide, or cause to be provided, Sellers with sufficient funds to complete the transactions contemplated by this Agreement at the time which the Closing should have occurred by the expiration of the two (2) Business Day period contemplated by clause (iii) hereof or (B) if Sellers or the board of directors (or similar governing body) of any Seller determine in good faith that proceeding with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement would violate Law or be inconsistent with their fiduciary obligations. (d) by either Buyer or the Sellers, if any Governmental Entity shall have enacted or issued a Law or Order or taken other action permanently restraining, prohibiting or enjoining any of the Parties from consummating the Transactions; provided that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1(d) will not be available to any party at any time that such party is in material breach of any covenant, representation or warranty hereunder. 9.2 Consequences of Termination.

58 (a) If either Buyer, on the one hand, or Sellers, on the other hand, desire to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1, such Party (or Parties, as applicable) shall give written notice of such termination to the other Parties. Upon delivery of such notice of termination, this Agreement will become void and have no further force and effect and all further obligations of the Parties to each other under this Agreement will terminate without further obligation or liability of the Parties. (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if the Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9.1(b)(vi), Section 9.1(b)(vii), Section 9.1(c)(ii), or Section 9.1(c)(iii)(B) then Buyer shall be entitled to payment of the Expense Reimbursement, if approved by the Bankruptcy Court, upon consummation of an Alternate Transaction from the proceeds of such Alternate Transaction. (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if this Agreement is terminated for any reason other than pursuant to Section 9.1(b)(vi), Section 9.1(b)(vii) or Section 9.1(c), then Buyer shall be entitled to payment of the Expense Reimbursement, if approved by the Bankruptcy Court, no later than five (5) Business Days following such termination. (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing set forth in this Section 9.2, Section 1.1 (Defined Terms), Section 6.5 (Public Announcements), Section 7.1 (Expense Reimbursement), this Section 9.2 (Consequences of Termination) and Article X (Miscellaneous) shall survive any termination of this Agreement. (e) Nothing in this Section 9.2 shall relieve Buyer or the Sellers of any liability for an intentional breach of this Agreement prior to the date of termination. ARTICLE X MISCELLANEOUS 10.1 Expenses. Except as set forth in this Agreement, the Credit Documents or the Sale Order, and whether or not the Transactions are consummated, each Party shall bear all costs and expenses incurred or to be incurred by such Party in connection with this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions. 10.2 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights or obligations hereunder may be assigned by Sellers without the prior written consent of Buyer, or by Buyer without the prior written consent of Sellers; provided, however, that Buyer may assign any or all of its rights and/or liabilities hereunder (or any document delivered by Buyer pursuant hereto) to one or more Affiliates of Buyer, or to any party which has received a contribution of the outstanding balance under the Prepetition Financing Agreement equal to the Credit Bid Amount, in the aggregate, which assignment shall not relieve Buyer of its obligations hereunder. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns; provided, further, that Sellers may transfer or assign such rights and obligations under this Agreement to a liquidation trust or similar vehicle under a confirmed chapter 11 plan of liquidation in the Cases.

59 10.3 Parties in Interest. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of the Sellers and Buyer, and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any rights, benefits or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement except as expressly set forth herein. Without limiting the foregoing, no direct or indirect holder of any equity interests or securities of either the Sellers or Buyer (whether such holder is a limited or general partner, member, stockholder or otherwise), nor any Affiliate of either the Sellers or Buyer, nor any Representative, or controlling Person of each of the Parties and their respective Affiliates, shall have any liability or obligation arising under this Agreement or the Transactions. 10.4 Matters Related to the Administrative Agents. (a) Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that none of the Sellers’ title to, control of or possession of any of the Purchased Assets, or any of the Sellers’ obligations in respect of any of the Assumed Liabilities, shall be transferred to or assumed by the Administrative Agents. Each Seller and Buyer, on behalf of itself and its respective Affiliates, acknowledges and agrees that neither the Administrative Agents nor any of their Affiliates (other than Buyer) shall have any Liability in the event of any breach by Buyer or any Seller of any of its representations, warranties, covenants, obligations or other agreements under this Agreement, including its obligations to consummate the Transactions in accordance with the terms of any document contemplated by this Agreement, other than as a result of or arising out of either the DIP Agent or the Prepetition Agent’s intentional fraud or willful misconduct. Each Seller and Buyer, on behalf of itself and its respective Affiliates, further acknowledges and agrees that neither the Prepetition Agent, the DIP Agent, nor any of their Affiliates (other than Buyer) shall in any way be deemed to be attributed or otherwise responsible for any of the representations, warranties, covenants, obligations or other agreements of Buyer or the Sellers under any document contemplated by this Agreement, including any obligation of Buyer or the Sellers hereunder to make payments of any kind, provide written approvals or make deliveries. Each Seller and Buyer, on behalf of itself and its respective Affiliates, further acknowledges and agrees that neither the Prepetition Agent, the DIP Agent, nor any of their Affiliates shall have any Liability or other obligation in respect of any action taken or not taken by the Prepetition Agent or the DIP Agent in connection with any document contemplated by this Agreement, other than as a result of or arising out of the Prepetition Agent’s or DIP Agent’s intentional fraud or willful misconduct. Each Seller and Buyer, on behalf of itself and its respective Affiliates, further acknowledges and agrees that ▇▇▇▇▇, and neither the Prepetition Agent nor the DIP Agent, has negotiated the terms of the purchase set forth herein, including the assets being purchased, the Liabilities being assumed, the Purchase Price and all the terms of this Agreement relating to the purchase by ▇▇▇▇▇, and neither the Prepetition Agent nor the DIP Agent shall bear any responsibility and incur no Liability whatsoever to any Person solely by virtue of being a Party. 10.5 Risk of Loss. The Sellers will bear all risk of loss occurring to or upon any portion of the Purchased Assets prior to the Closing Date. In the event that any material portion of any Purchased Assets is damaged or destroyed prior to Closing Date, then, with respect to such Purchased Assets, Buyer may, at Buyer’s option, either (i) proceed to close notwithstanding the damage or destruction of such Purchased Assets or (ii) exclude such Purchased Assets, in which event Buyer shall have no obligation to close if as a consequence of the exclusion of such Purchased Assets any condition to Closing in Section 8.1 would not be satisfied unless such loss

60 is covered by insurance or cause of action against a third-party. If Buyer closes notwithstanding an unrepaired or unrestored loss to a Purchased Asset, the Sellers will deliver and/or assign to Buyer any insurance proceeds actually received by the Sellers with respect to such damage or destruction, and all claims against third parties relating thereto. 10.6 Notices. All notices, demands, requests, waivers, consents, approvals or other communications (collectively, “Notices”) required or permitted to be given hereunder or that are given with respect to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be personally served, delivered by a nationally recognized overnight delivery service with charges prepaid, or transmitted by hand delivery or electronic mail, addressed as set forth below, or to such other address as such Party shall have specified most recently by written Notice. Notice shall be deemed given on the date of service or transmission if personally served or transmitted by electronic mail with confirmation of receipt (excluding “out of office” or similar automated replies); provided, however, that, if delivered or transmitted on a day other than a Business Day (or if transmitted by electronic mail after 5:00 pm Eastern Time), notice shall be deemed given on the next Business Day.

61 Rejection of or refusal to accept any Notice, or the inability to deliver any Notice because of changed address of which no Notice was given, shall be deemed to be receipt of the Notice as of the date of such rejection, refusal or inability to deliver. 10.7 Entire Agreement; Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement and all agreements entered into pursuant hereto and thereto and all certificates and instruments delivered pursuant hereto and thereto constitute the entire agreement between the Parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations, and discussions, whether oral or written, of the Parties; provided, that nothing herein shall modify or alter the terms, rights or obligations of the Administrative Agents, the Lenders or the Sellers under the Prepetition Loan Documents or the DIP Documents prior to Closing. This Agreement may be amended, supplemented or modified, and any of the terms, covenants, representations, warranties or conditions may be waived, only by a written instrument executed by ▇▇▇▇▇ and Sellers, or in the case of a waiver, by the Party waiving compliance. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provision hereof (whether or not similar), and no such waiver shall constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided. No failure on the part of any Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power or remedy by such Party preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. 10.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Counterparts to this Agreement may be delivered via electronic delivery, “pdf” or facsimile. In proving this Agreement, it shall not be necessary to produce or account for more than one such counterpart signed by the Party against whom enforcement is sought. 10.9 Invalidity. If any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other instrument referred to herein, shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement, to ensure that this Agreement shall reflect as closely as practicable the intent of the Parties on the date hereof. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Entity declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the Parties agree that the court making such determination will have the power to reduce the scope, duration, area or applicability of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid, illegal or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid, legal and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable term or provision. 10.10 Governing Law. This Agreement, and any Proceeding that may be based upon, arise out of or relate or be incidental to the Transactions, this Agreement, the negotiation, execution, performance or consummation of the foregoing or the inducement of any Party to enter into the foregoing, whether for breach of Contract, tortious conduct or otherwise, and whether now existing or hereafter arising (each, a “Transaction Dispute”), will be exclusively governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal Laws of the State of New York without giving effect

62 to any Law or rule that would cause the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York to be applied, except to the extent that such Laws are superseded by the Bankruptcy Code. 10.11 Dispute Resolution; Consent to Jurisdiction. (a) Without limiting any Party’s right to appeal any order of the Bankruptcy Court, (i) the Bankruptcy Court shall retain exclusive jurisdiction to enforce the terms of this Agreement and to decide any Transaction Dispute, and (ii) any and all proceedings related to the foregoing shall be filed and maintained only in the Bankruptcy Court, and the Parties hereby consent to and submit to the jurisdiction and venue of the Bankruptcy Court and shall receive notices at such locations as indicated in Section 10.6; provided, however, upon the closing of the Cases (except for any matter(s) with respect to the Sellers and/or the Cases in which the Bankruptcy Court retains jurisdiction with respect to such matter with respect to Sellers and/or the Cases), or if the Bankruptcy Court is unwilling or unable to hear such Transaction Dispute, then, the Parties agree to unconditionally and irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York sitting in the County of New York or the courts of the State of New York sitting in county of New York and any appellate court from any thereof, for the resolution of any such Transaction Dispute. In that context, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Party irrevocably and unconditionally: (i) submits for itself and its property to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts with respect to any Transaction Dispute and for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, and agrees that all claims in respect of any Transaction Dispute shall be heard and determined in such courts; (ii) agrees that venue would be proper in such courts, and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have that any such court is an improper or inconvenient forum for the resolution of any Transaction Dispute; and (iii) agrees that Notice demand in accordance with Section 10.6, will be effective service of process; provided, however, that nothing herein will be deemed to prevent a Party from making service of process by any means authorized by the Laws of the State of New York. (b) The foregoing consent to jurisdiction will not constitute submission to jurisdiction or general consent to service of process in the State of New York for any purpose except with respect to any Transaction Dispute. 10.12 WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT THEY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY PROCEEDING IN CONNECTION WITH A TRANSACTION DISPUTE. 10.13 Specific Performance. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that the other Party would be damaged irreparably in the event that a Party does not perform its obligations under this Agreement in accordance with its specific terms or otherwise breaches this Agreement, so that, in addition to any other remedy that Buyer or the Sellers may have under law or equity, each Party shall be entitled to injunctive relief to prevent any breaches of the provisions of this Agreement by the other Parties and to enforce specifically this Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof. 10.14 Third Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies of any nature under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided herein, including Section 10.17.

63 10.15 Counting. If the due date for any action to be taken under this Agreement (including the delivery of Notices) is not a Business Day, then such action shall be considered timely taken if performed on or prior to the next Business Day following such due date. 10.16 Survival. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement to the contrary, all representations and warranties and covenants of Buyer and the Sellers, respectively, contained in this Agreement or in any document delivered pursuant hereto shall not survive the Closing Date and thereafter shall be of no further force and effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement, which by their terms would require performance after the Closing Date, shall survive until fully performed or until such covenant or agreement expires by its terms. 10.17 Non-Recourse. All claims, Liabilities, Proceedings, or causes of action (whether in contract or in tort, in law or in equity, or granted by statute) that may be based upon, in respect of, arise under, out or by reason of, be connected with, or relate in any manner to a Transaction Dispute, may be made only against (and are expressly limited to) the entities that are expressly identified as parties hereto in the preamble to this Agreement or, if applicable, their permitted assignees (collectively, the “Contracting Parties”). No Person who is not a Contracting Party, including any past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, manager, equityholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney, or representative of, and any financial advisor or lender to, any Contracting Party (other than the Persons listed on Schedule 10.17), or any director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, manager, equityholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney, or representative of, and any financial advisor or lender to, any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Non-Recourse Persons”), shall have any Liability (whether in contract or in tort, in law or in equity, or granted by statute) for any claims, Liabilities, or causes of action, arising under, out of, in connection with, or related in any manner to a Transaction Dispute; and, to the maximum extent permitted by Law, each Contracting Party hereby waives and releases all such claims, Liabilities, and causes of action, against any such Non-Recourse Persons. 10.18 Preparation of this Agreement. Buyer and the Sellers hereby acknowledge that (a) Buyer and the Sellers jointly and equally participated in the drafting of this Agreement and all other agreements contemplated hereby, (b) Buyer and the Sellers have been adequately represented and advised by legal counsel with respect to this Agreement and the Transactions, and (c) no presumption shall be made that any provision of this Agreement shall be construed against either Party by reason of such role in the drafting of this Agreement and any other agreement contemplated hereby. 10.19 Releases. Effective as of the Closing, each of the Sellers on their own behalf and on behalf of their past, present, and future predecessors, successors and assigns hereby unconditionally, irrevocably, and fully forever release, remise, acquit, relinquish, irrevocably waive, and discharge, in their capacity as purchaser of the Purchased Assets, the Buyer, Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and each of their respective former, current or future officers, employees, directors, agents, representatives, owners, members, partners, financial advisors, legal advisors, shareholders, managers, consultants, accountants, attorneys, affiliates, assigns, and predecessors in interest, each in their capacity as such, of and from any and all Claims, demands, liabilities, responsibilities, disputes, remedies, causes of action, indebtedness and obligations, rights, assertions, allegations, actions, suits, controversies, proceedings, losses,

64 damages, injuries, attorneys’ fees, costs, expenses, or judgments of every type, whether known, unknown, asserted, unasserted, suspected, unsuspected, accrued, unaccrued, fixed, contingent, pending, or threatened, including all legal and equitable theories of recovery, arising under common law, statute, or regulation or by contract, of every nature and description that exist on the date hereof with respect to or relating to this Agreement and the Transaction, in each case, in connection with any event, conduct or circumstance occurring on or prior to the Closing. 10.20 Schedules. The Sellers’ Disclosure Schedules have been arranged for purposes of convenience in separately numbered sections corresponding to the sections of this Agreement; provided that each section of the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedules will be deemed to incorporate by reference all information disclosed in any other section of the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedules, and any disclosure in the such Seller’s Disclosure Schedules will be deemed a disclosure against any representation or warranty set forth in this Agreement. Capitalized terms used in the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedules and not otherwise defined therein have the meanings given to them in this Agreement. The specification of any dollar amount or the inclusion of any item in the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedules or the attached exhibits is not intended to imply that the amounts, or higher or lower amounts, or the items so included, or other items, are or are not required to be disclosed (including whether such amounts or items are required to be disclosed as material or threatened) or are within or outside of the Ordinary Course of Business, and no Party will use the fact of the setting of the amounts or the fact of the inclusion of any item in this Agreement, the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedules or exhibits in any dispute or controversy between the Parties as to whether any obligation, item or matter not set forth or included in this Agreement, the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedules or exhibits is or is not required to be disclosed (including whether the amount or items are required to be disclosed as material or threatened) or are within or outside of the Ordinary Course of Business. In addition, matters reflected in the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedules are not necessarily limited to matters required by this Agreement to be reflected in the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedules. Such additional matters are set forth for informational purposes only and do not necessarily include other matters of a similar nature. No information set forth in the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedules will be deemed to broaden in any way the scope of the Parties’ representations and warranties. Any description of any agreement, document, instrument, plan, arrangement or other item set forth on any Sellers’ Disclosure Schedule is qualified in its entirety by the terms of such agreement, document, instrument, plan, arrangement, or item which terms will be deemed disclosed for all purposes of this Agreement. The information contained in this Agreement, in the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedules and exhibits hereto is disclosed solely for purposes of this Agreement, and no information contained herein or therein will be deemed to be an admission by any Party to any third party of any matter whatsoever, including any violation of Law or breach of Contract. 10.21 Fiduciary Obligation. Nothing in this Agreement, or any document related to the transactions contemplated hereby, will require any Seller or any of their respective directors, managers, officers or members, in each case, in their capacity as such, to take any action, or to refrain from taking any action, that the board of directors or managers (or other governing body) of such Seller has determined, in good faith after consultation with legal counsel and independent financial advisors, would be a violation of such Person’s fiduciary obligations or applicable Law. For the avoidance of doubt, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ retain the right to pursue any transaction or restructuring strategy that, in Sellers’ business judgment, will maximize the value of their estates.
