The Company hereby represents and warrants as of the date hereof and covenants and agrees that none of the terms offered to any Person with respect to the Exchange, including, without limitation with respect to any consent, release, amendment, settlement, or waiver relating to any Exchange (each an “Settlement Document”), is or will be more favorable to such Person (other than any reimbursement of legal fees) than those of the Investor and this Agreement. If, and whenever on or after the date hereof, the Company enters into a Settlement Document, then (i) the Company shall provide notice thereof to the Investor immediately

11

following the occurrence thereof and (ii) the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be, without any further action by the Investor or the Company, automatically amended and modified in an economically and legally equivalent manner such that the Investor shall receive the benefit of the more favorable terms and/or conditions (as the case may be) set forth in such Settlement Document, provided that upon written notice to the Company at any time the Investor may elect not to accept the benefit of any such amended or modified term or condition, in which event the term or condition contained in this Agreement shall apply to the Investor as it was in effect immediately prior to such amendment or modification as if such amendment or modification never occurred with respect to the Investor. The provisions of this Section 6.16 shall apply similarly and equally to each Settlement Document.
