WHEREAS, the Parties have entered into a term sheet dated May 12, 2024 and wish to enter into a binding agreement setting forth the terms of a transaction between the Parties with respect to the ultimate repayment in full of the Obligations (as defined in the Credit Agreement (as defined below)) owing to VRT in respect of the Credit Agreement, subject to the entry by third parties into certain agreements and other conditions set forth in this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises set forth above and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

2.             Exhibits. Each of the following exhibits attached to this Agreement shall be deemed incorporated herein by reference:

3.             Commitment. Each of the Parties hereby acknowledge that, pursuant to the Option Agreement as modified by the Assignment and Direction, the AFC Lenders and AFC Agent or any of their respective Affiliates (individually or collectively as context may require, “AFC”) are required to assign their Loans to 1106 upon the exercise of the Option (as defined in the Option Agreement). In connection therewith, the Parties have requested that AFC enter into the AFC/1106 Assignment Agreement and the Agency Assignment Agreement in accordance with the respective terms thereof, but that AFC may nevertheless refuse to do so (an “AFC Refusal”). Each of the Parties covenants and agrees, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, that it shall, on or before June 3, 2024, enter into each of the AFC/1106 Assignment Agreement, the 1106/VRT Assignment Agreement, the Assignment and Direction, the AAL, the Amended Credit Agreement and the Agency Assignment Agreement, all to be dated and effective on the same day as set forth herein (such day being the “Effective Date”); [***].

4.             Transaction Effectiveness. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Transaction Documents shall all become effective on the Effective Date, but each Transaction Document and the transactions evidenced thereby shall be deemed to become effective in the following order on such date: (1) the Assignment and Direction, (2) the AFC/1106 Assignment Agreement, (3) the Agency Assignment Agreement, (4) the 1106/VRT Assignment Agreement, and (5) each of the Amended Credit Agreement and the AAL.

5.             Fee. In consideration for services performed by VRT in favour of 1106 in connection with the Transaction Documents and for the provision of services related to the New VRT Designation, 1106 shall (a) assign Loans under the Credit Agreement to VRT in an amount equal to the 1106/VRT Assignment Amount and (b) make the New VRT Designation.

6.             Expenses. 1106 shall pay the reasonable and documented costs and expenses of VRT and VRT Agent LLC incurred in connection with the negotiation and documentation of the Transaction Documents; provided, that 1106 shall not be obligated to pay amounts in respect of the foregoing in excess of $400,000.

7.             Indemnity. 1106 hereby agrees to indemnify VRT, VRT Agent LLC and their respect affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees, consultants and advisors (collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”) from, and agree to reimburse or compensate each of the Indemnified Persons, from time to time, for the Indemnified Obligations.

(a)           The “Indemnified Obligations” shall mean, collectively, any and all obligations, losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) of any kind or nature whatsoever, that may at any time be imposed upon, incurred by or asserted against VRT or any other Indemnified Person arising out of, or in connection with, the Transaction Documents or any agreement, document or instrument delivered pursuant to or in connection with the foregoing, or any actual or threatened claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory (including any investigation of, preparation for or defense of any pending or threatened claim, investigation, litigation or proceeding), in each case, whether or not caused by or arising, in whole or in part, out of the negligence of any Indemnified Person; provided that in respect of any threatened claim, the Indemnified Persons must provide 1106 with reasonably sufficient documentation to substantiate that any indemnified losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses are related to the subject matter of this indemnification.

(b)           No admission of liability and no settlement of any Indemnified Obligations shall be made by an Indemnified Person without the prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, of 1106 unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of 1106 from any liabilities arising out of such Indemnified Obligations without any admission of responsibility by 1106.

(c)           Promptly after receiving notice of an Indemnified Obligation against any Indemnified Person or receipt of notice of the commencement of any investigation which is based, directly or indirectly, upon any matter in respect of which indemnification may be sought from 1106, VRT or any such other Indemnified Person will notify 1106 in writing of the particulars thereof and will provide copies of all relevant documentation to 1106, will keep 1106 advised of the progress thereof and will discuss with 1106 all significant actions proposed, provided that the omission to so notify 1106 shall not relieve 1106 of any liability which 1106 may have to any Indemnified Person except and only to the extent that any such delay in giving or failure to give notice as herein required prejudices the defense of such Indemnified Obligation or results in any material increase in the liability which 1106 would otherwise have under this indemnity had VRT or any such other Indemnified Person not so delayed in giving or failed to give the notice required hereunder; provided further, that notwithstanding the foregoing, no Indemnified Person shall be obligated to provide any information, orally or in writing, notice or documentation to 1106 if, upon the advice of counsel, such action could in any way whatsoever lead to potential waiver of any privileges, including attorney-client privilege and attorney work-product doctrine.

(d)           In no event will 1106 be responsible for the fees of more than one separate counsel for all Indemnified Persons in any single jurisdiction and, in the event of an actual or reasonably perceived conflict of interest (as reasonably determined by the applicable Indemnified Person), one additional counsel for each group of similarly affected Indemnified Persons.

(e)           The foregoing indemnity shall not apply to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment that has become non-appealable has determined that such Indemnified Obligations to which the Indemnified Person may be subject were caused primarily by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Person and in such instance, such Indemnified Person will reimburse any funds advanced by 1106 to the Indemnified Person pursuant to this indemnity in respect of such Indemnified Obligation.

8.             No Modification; Entire Agreement. This Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented except by an agreement in writing signed by each of the Parties.
