(b) Forbearance. In reliance upon the representations, warranties and covenants of the Issuers contained in this Agreement, and subject to the terms, conditions, modifications and amendments set forth in this Agreement and any documents or instruments executed in connection herewith, Note Agent and the Purchasers, subject to the provisions of Section 3(c) below, agree to forbear, during the period (the “Forbearance Period”) commencing on the date hereof and ending on the Forbearance Termination Date, from exercising its rights and remedies under the NPA and other Note Documents or applicable law in respect of or arising out of the

Existing Events of Default, Non-Material Future Defaults, and its Amortization Right (with respect to such Amortization Rights, as long as the forbearance pursuant to the Grace Bay Forbearance Agreement has not been terminated or otherwise ceased to be in effect).

(c) No Forbearance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 3(b):

(i) The Existing Events of Default and each Non-Material Future Default, upon the occurrence thereof, shall constitute an Event of Default under the NPA and each other Note Document for the purpose of determining whether or not certain actions or in-actions may be taken or otherwise acquiesced to by or on behalf of any Issuer, as set forth therein. Accordingly, any actions or in-actions taken or omitted by any Issuer in violation of any provision governing whether such action or in-action may or may not be taken or omitted while any Event of Default exists will constitute additional Events of Default under the NPA and the other Note Documents, as well as a breach of the terms of this Agreement.

(ii) Peak’s Amortization Rights shall continue to exist regardless of any action or in-actions taken or otherwise acquiesced to by or on behalf of any Issuer. The forbearance provided under Section 3(b) shall in no way be considered a course of dealing or a right of the Issuers to any forbearance or waiver of Peak’s right to exercise its Amortization Right following the termination or other cessation of the Grace Bay Forbearance Agreement.

(iii) The forbearance set forth in Section 3(b) on the part of Note Agent and the Purchasers shall not, and shall not be deemed to, relieve in any manner any Issuer from complying with all limitations, restrictions, prohibitions or requirements that would otherwise be effective or applicable under the NPA or any other Note Documents (including all limitations, restrictions, prohibitions or requirements that extend to subsidiaries not party to the NPA) during the term of this Agreement, or otherwise during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default.

4. Automatic Termination of Forbearance Period. The agreement of Note Agent and the Purchasers to forbear pursuant to Section 3(b) of this Agreement shall automatically terminate, without notice or any other further act or instrument being required, upon the occurrence of any of the following:
