NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals, the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

1. Purchase and Sale.

(a) On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, each Seller hereby agrees to sell to the Company, and the Company hereby agrees to purchase from each Seller, the aggregate principal amount of 2015 Term Loans specified on Annex I (collectively, the “Purchased Loans”), at a purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) equal to the sum of (i) $1,000 per $1,000 of principal amount of the 2015 Fairfax Loans and/or $1,000 per $1,000 of principal amount of the 2015 Exchange Loans, each as specified on Annex I. The obligations of the Sellers under this Agreement are several (and not joint), and no Seller shall be responsible for any other Seller’s failure to perform its obligations hereunder.

 

2


(b) The Company hereby agrees to pay in full, in cash, all unpaid and accrued interest on the Purchased Loans from the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date (as defined in the Fairfax Second Lien Credit Agreement or in the Exchange Second Lien Credit Agreement, as applicable) to, but not including, the Closing Date (defined below), in each case payable in accordance with the terms of the Fairfax Second Lien Credit Agreement or the Exchange Second Lien Credit Agreement, as applicable. The obligations of the Sellers under this Agreement are several (and not joint), and no Seller shall be responsible for any other Seller’s failure to perform its obligations hereunder.

(c) As inducement for each Seller to enter into this Agreement, the Company hereby agrees to pay each Seller the Consent Fee with respect to the Purchased Loans sold by such Seller in accordance with such Seller’s election of cash or Warrants as specified in the signature pages hereto and summarized on Annex I. The Consent Fee payable to each Seller shall be equal to either (i) Warrants equal to such Seller’s pro rata share of an aggregate of up to 10% of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company on the Closing Date (to be calculated on a fully diluted basis giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock underlying the Commitment Fee Warrants and the Amendment Fee Warrants, but excluding the Financing Warrants and any Common Stock which may be issued as PIK Payments or as PIK payments under the 1.5 Lien Notes and subject to pro rata reduction for any Seller who elects to receive the Consent Fee in cash pursuant to clause (ii)), or (ii) cash equal to such Seller’s pro rata share of the Common Stock underlying the Warrants described in immediately preceding clause (i). The price per share of Common Stock used to calculate the value of the cash in clause (ii) shall be $0.70 per share which represents the 30-day VWAP of the Common Stock as of February 28, 2017.

(d) For the convenience of the Parties, each of the Company and the Sellers agree that the funding of the Affiliate Lender’s Loans shall be deemed to occur on the Closing Date and the deemed delivery of the proceeds of the Affiliate Lender’s Loans under the Term Loan Agreement to the Sellers shall satisfy the Company’s obligation to pay the Purchase Price hereunder. Further, the accrued but unpaid interest on the Purchased Loans from the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date to and including the Closing Date shall be paid in full in cash, promptly upon receipt of funds in respect thereof from the Company, by the Fairfax Administrative Agent (in the case of the Fairfax Second Lien Credit Agreement) or by the Exchange Administrative Agent (in the case of the Exchange Second Lien Credit Agreement), as applicable, to the applicable Seller in each case at the direction of the Company on the Closing Date in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the respective accounts of the Sellers referenced on Annex II (the “Accrued Interest”). For the avoidance of doubt, upon the effectiveness of this Agreement the payment of any applicable Make-Whole Amount (as defined in the Fairfax Second Lien Credit Agreement or in the Exchange Second Lien Credit Agreement, as applicable) payable on the 2015 Term Loans that are subject to the purchase and sale contemplated by this Agreement will be waived as provided in Section 6 below. Finally, the Company, as the borrower of the Purchased Loans, shall (and hereby does) direct the Fairfax Administrative Agent (in the case of the 2015 Fairfax Loans) or the Exchange Administrative Agent (in the case of the 2015 Exchange Loans), as applicable, to cancel the applicable Purchased Loans concurrently with the Closing. The Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the deemed making by the Affiliate Lender of its Loans under the Term Loan Agreement, (ii) the deemed delivery by the Affiliate Lender of the proceeds of its Loans under the Term Loan Agreement to the Sellers in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 1(d) hereof, (iii) the sale by the Sellers to the Company of the Purchased Loans, (iv) the

purchase by the Company from the Sellers of the Purchased Loans and (v) the cancellation by the Fairfax Administrative Agent (in the case of the 2015 Fairfax Loans) or the Exchange Administrative Agent (in the case of the 2015 Exchange Loans), as applicable, of the applicable Purchased Loans in accordance with the third sentence of this Section 1(d) will, in each case, occur concurrently.

2. Closing. The closing of the purchase and sale of the Purchased Loans (the “Closing”) will take place on the business day on which the Effective Time (as defined below) occurs (such business day, the “Effective Date”) or such date and time after the Effective Date as shall be mutually agreed to by the Parties (the “Closing Date”). The Closing will take place at the offices of the Company or such other place as shall be mutually agreed to by the Parties.

(f) The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by such Seller will not result in a violation by such Seller of any requirement of law or any contractual obligation of such Seller and will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any lien on any of its properties or revenues pursuant to any requirement of law or any such contractual obligation.
