8.01. During the Agreement Effective Period, except pursuant to the consummation of the Restructuring Transactions, no Consenting Creditor shall Transfer any ownership (including any beneficial ownership as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) in any Company Claims/Interests to any affiliated party (solely to the extent that such Transfer would otherwise have the effect of such Claims/Interests no longer being subject to this Agreement) or unaffiliated party, including any party in which it may hold a direct or indirect beneficial interest, unless:

(a) the authorized transferee is either (1) a “qualified institutional buyer” (as defined in Rule 144A of the Securities Act) or (2) a person other than a “U.S. person” (as defined in Rule 902(k) of Regulation S under the Securities Act) in an “offshore transaction” (as defined in Rule 902(h) of Regulation S under the Securities Act); and

(b) either (i) the transferee executes and delivers to counsel to the Company Parties and counsel to the Ad Hoc Group as soon as reasonably practicable after such Transfer is effective, a Joinder or (ii) the transferee is a Consenting Creditor and the transferee provides notice of such Transfer (including the amount and type of Company Claims/Interests Transferred) to counsel to the Company Parties and counsel to the Ad Hoc Group, reasonably promptly following such Transfer.

8.02. Upon compliance with the requirements of Section 8.01, the transferee shall be deemed a Consenting Creditor, as applicable, and the transferor shall be deemed to relinquish its rights (and be released from its obligations) under this Agreement to the extent of the rights and obligations in respect of such transferred Company Claims/Interests.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, to the extent a Company Party and another Party have entered into a Confidentiality Agreement, the terms of such Confidentiality Agreement shall continue to apply and remain in full force and effect according to its terms, and this Agreement does not supersede any rights or obligations otherwise arising under such Confidentiality Agreements.

 

17


8.05. Notwithstanding Section 8.01, a Qualified Marketmaker that acquires any Company Claims/Interests with the purpose and intent of acting as a Qualified Marketmaker for such Company Claims/Interests shall not be required to execute and deliver a Joinder in respect of such Company Claims/Interests and shall not be subject to the requirements in the proviso of Section 8.03 hereof if (a) such Qualified Marketmaker subsequently transfers such Company Claims/Interests (by purchase, sale assignment, participation, or otherwise) within fifteen (15) Business Days of its acquisition to a transferee that is an entity that is not an affiliate, affiliated fund, or affiliated entity with a common investment advisor; (b) the transferee otherwise is a Permitted Transferee; and (c) the Transfer otherwise is a permitted Transfer under Section 8.01.

For the avoidance of doubt, if a Qualified Marketmaker acquires any Company Claims/Interests from a Consenting Creditor and is unable to transfer such Company Claims/Interests within the fifteen (15) Business Day-period referred to above, the Qualified Marketmaker shall comply with the requirements of Section 8.01(b) and be subject to Section 8.02 and Section 8.03 hereof with respect to such Company Claims/Interests. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, a Qualified Marketmaker may Transfer any right, title, or interest in any Company Claims/Interests that it acquires from a Consenting Creditor to another Qualified Marketmaker (the “Transferee Qualified Marketmaker”) without the requirement that the Transferee Qualified Marketmaker execute and deliver to each of counsel to the Company Parties and counsel to the Ad Hoc Group, a Joinder in respect of such Company Claims/Interests or be a Permitted Transferee, if such Transferee Qualified Marketmaker transfers the right, title or interest in such Company Claims/Interests within fifteen (15) business days of its acquisition from the Qualified Marketmaker to a transferee that (A) is a Consenting Creditor or Permitted Transferee at the time of such Transfer or (B) becomes a Consenting Creditor or Permitted Transferee by the date of settlement of such Transfer.

8.06. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8, the restrictions on Transfer set forth in this Section 8 shall not apply to (i) the transfer of any ownership (including any beneficial ownership as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) in any Company Claims/Interest to any affiliate of such Consenting Creditor (solely to the extent that such Claims/Interests would remain subject to this Agreement), and (ii) the grant of any liens or encumbrances on any Company Claims/Interests in favor of a bank or broker-dealer holding custody of such Company Claims/Interests in the ordinary course of business and which lien or encumbrance is released upon the Transfer of such claims and interests.

8.07. In connection with any Transfer permitted by this Section 8, each of the transferor and the transferee shall deliver to the Company Parties such information and documentation as reasonably requested by such Company Parties in order to substantiate compliance with any applicable law, including, without limitation, all applicable securities laws.

(a) the breach in any material respect by the Consenting Creditors of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or other obligations or agreements of the Consenting Creditors set forth in this Agreement, such that the non-breaching Consenting Creditors own or control less than 66.67% in aggregate principal amount of all outstanding First Lien Claims, and such breach remains uncured (if susceptible to cure) for five (5) Business Days after the Company Parties transmit a written notice to the breaching Consenting Creditors in accordance with Section 13.10 detailing any such breach;

(b) the board of directors, board of managers, or such similar governing body of any Company Party determines in accordance with Section 7.01 and/or 7.02 hereof (i) that proceeding with any of the Restructuring Transactions would be inconsistent with the exercise of its fiduciary duties or applicable Law, or (ii) in the exercise of its fiduciary duties, to pursue an Alternative Restructuring Proposal; or

(c) the issuance by any Governmental Entity, including any regulatory authority or court of competent jurisdiction, of any final, non-appealable ruling or order that (i) enjoins the consummation of a material portion of the Restructuring Transactions and (ii) remains in effect for fifteen (15) days after such terminating Company Party transmits a written notice in accordance with Section 13.10 detailing any such issuance; provided, that this termination right shall not apply to or be exercised by any Company Party that sought or requested such ruling or order in contravention of any obligation or restriction set out in this Agreement.

11.03. Company Party Termination Events as to Any Particular Consenting Creditors. Any Company Party may terminate this Agreement with respect to any particular Consenting Creditor upon the occurrence of a material breach by such Consenting Creditor of any of the representations, warranties or covenants with respect to such Consenting Creditor set forth in this Agreement that (if susceptible to cure) remains uncured for a period of five (5) Business Days after receipt of notice in accordance with Section 13.10.

If this Agreement is terminated in accordance with this Section 11 (other than a termination pursuant to Section 11.03), each Consenting Creditor shall have an opportunity to change or withdraw (or cause to change or withdraw) its vote to accept the Plan (regardless of whether any deadline for votes or consents, or for withdrawal thereof, set forth in the Disclosure Statement has passed) and no Company Party shall oppose any attempt by such Consenting Creditor to change or withdraw (or cause to change or withdraw) such vote at such time; provided, that any such Consenting Creditor that intends to change or withdraw its vote has not breached and is not otherwise in violation of the terms of this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as prohibiting a Company Party or any of the Consenting Creditors from contesting whether any such termination is in accordance with its terms or to seek enforcement of any rights under this Agreement that arose or existed before a Termination Date. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, nothing herein is intended to, or does, in any manner waive, limit, impair, or restrict (a) any right of any Company Party or the ability of any Company Party to protect and reserve its rights (including rights under this Agreement), remedies, and interests, including its claims against any Consenting Creditor, and (b) any right of any Consenting Creditor, or the ability of any Consenting Creditor, to protect and preserve its rights (including rights under this Agreement), remedies, and interests, including its claims against any Company Party or Consenting Creditor. No purported termination of this Agreement shall be effective under this Section 11.06 or otherwise if the Party seeking to terminate this Agreement is in material breach of this Agreement, except a termination pursuant to Section 11.02(b). Nothing in this Section 11.06 shall restrict any Company Party’s right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 11.02(b).

(c) In determining whether any consent or approval has been given by the applicable Required Consenting Creditor, any Company Claims/Interests held by any then-existing Consenting Creditor that is in material breach of its covenants, obligations, or representations under this Agreement shall be excluded from such determination, and the Company Claims/Interests, as applicable, held by such Consenting Creditor shall be treated as if they were not outstanding.

(d) Any proposed modification, amendment, waiver or supplement that does not comply with this Section 12 shall be ineffective and void ab initio.

To the extent applicable, the Plan and any Cash Collateral Order shall contain appropriate provisions to give effect to the obligations under this Section 13.20.

No prior history, pattern, or practice of sharing confidences among or between the Parties shall in any way affect or negate this understanding and agreement. No Consenting Creditor shall, nor shall any action taken by a Consenting Creditor pursuant to this Agreement, be deemed to be acting in concert or as any group with any other Consenting Creditor with respect to the obligations under this Agreement nor shall this Agreement create a presumption that the Consenting Creditors are in any way acting in concert or as a group. The decision to commit to enter into the transactions contemplated by this Agreement has been made independently by each Party hereto. The Parties acknowledge that all representations, warranties, covenants, and other agreements made by or on behalf of any Consenting Noteholder that is a separately managed account of an investment manager signatory hereto (the “Manager”) are being made only with respect to the assets managed by such Manager on behalf of such Consenting Noteholder, and shall not apply to (or be deemed to be made in relation to) any assets or interests that may be beneficially owned by such Consenting Noteholder that are not held through accounts managed by such Manager.

28


(it being understood and agreed that each Consenting Creditor’s signature page to this Agreement shall be redacted to remove the name of such Consenting Creditor and the amount and/or percentage of Company Claims/Interests held by such Consenting Creditor); provided, however, that (i) if such disclosure is required by Law, the disclosing Party shall afford the relevant Consenting Creditor a reasonable opportunity to review and comment in advance of such disclosure and shall take all reasonable measures to limit such disclosure and (ii) the foregoing shall not prohibit the disclosure of the aggregate percentage or aggregate principal amount of Company Claims/Interests held by the Consenting Creditors of the same class, collectively (and the Consenting Creditors and their advisors shall provide such aggregate number to the Company Parties and their advisors promptly upon reasonable request and upon the Agreement Effective Date). Notwithstanding the provisions in this Section 13.23, (x) any Party may disclose the identities of the other Parties in any action to enforce this Agreement or in any action for damages as a result of any breaches hereof, (y) any Party may disclose, to the extent expressly consented to in writing by a Consenting Creditor such Consenting Creditor’s identity and individual holdings, and (z) to the extent the Company Parties, acting reasonably and in good faith, determine that disclosure of the Consenting Creditors’ names is necessary to preserve relationships with customers, suppliers, employees, and licensing or regulatory bodies, the Company Parties may disclose the name of any Consenting Creditor that was previously disclosed in any of the Company Parties’ press releases, other public statements, or other public disclosures or contained in the Company Parties communications materials as provided to and approved by counsel to the Ad Hoc Group.

13.24. No Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against the named parties hereto (and then only to the extent of the specific obligations undertaken by such parties in this Agreement). All claims or causes of action (whether in contract, tort, equity, or any other theory) that may be based upon, arise out of, or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution, or performance of this Agreement, may be made only against the Persons that are expressly identified as parties hereto (and then only to the extent of the specific obligations undertaken by such parties herein). No past, present, or future direct or indirect director, manager, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, equity holder, trustee, affiliate, controlling person, agent, attorney, or other representative of any party hereto (including any person negotiating or executing this Agreement on behalf of a party hereto), nor any past, present or future direct or indirect director, manager, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, equity holder, trustee, affiliate, controlling person, agent, attorney, or other representative of any of the foregoing (other than any of the foregoing that is a Party hereto) (any such Person, a “No Recourse Party”), shall have any liability with respect to this Agreement or with respect to any proceeding (whether in contract, tort, equity, or any other theory that seeks to “pierce the corporate veil” or impose liability of an entity against its owners or affiliates or otherwise) that may arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution, or performance of this Agreement.

13.25. Computation of Time. Bankruptcy Rule 9006(a) applies in computing any period prescribed or allowed herein.
