(a)         the authorized transferee is (i) a qualified institutional buyer as defined in Rule 144A of the Securities Act, (ii) a non-U.S. person in an offshore transaction as defined under Regulation S under the Securities Act, (iii) an institutional accredited investor (as defined in rules 501(a)(1), (2), (3), and (7) of the Securities Act), or (iv) a Consenting Lender; and
 
(b)          the transferee (i) executes and delivers to counsel to the Debtors and counsel to the Consenting Creditor Parties in accordance with Section 15.07, within two (2) Business Days of the Transfer, a fully executed Transfer Agreement, (ii) controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with such transferor Consenting Lender or is an affiliate, affiliated fund, or affiliated entity with a common investment advisor therewith that is bound by this Agreement, or (iii) is a Consenting Lender (or controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with a Consenting Lender or is an affiliate, affiliated fund, or affiliated entity with a common investment advisor therewith that is bound by this Agreement) unaffiliated with such transferor Consenting Lender, and, in the case of (iii), the transferee provides notice of such Transfer and the identification of the Consenting Lender that is the transferee or affiliated therewith (including the amount and type of Company Claim/Interest transferred) to counsel to the Debtors and counsel to the Consenting Creditor Parties in accordance with Section 15.07, within two (2) Business Days of the Transfer.
 
10.02    Upon compliance with the requirements of Section 10.01, 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.  Any Transfer in violation of Section 10.01 shall be void ab initio.  Any Consenting Lender that effectuates a Transfer in accordance with this Section 10 shall have no liability under this Agreement arising from or related to the failure of the transferee to comply with the terms of this Agreement.
 
10.03    This Agreement shall in no way be construed to preclude the Consenting Lenders from acquiring additional Company Claims/Interests; provided that (a) such additional Company Claims/Interests shall automatically and immediately upon acquisition by a Consenting Lender be deemed subject to the terms of this Agreement (regardless of when or whether notice of such acquisition is given to counsel to the Debtors or counsel to the Consenting Creditor Parties), and (b) such Consenting Lender must provide notice of such acquisition (including the amount and type of Company Claim/Interest acquired) on a confidential basis to counsel to the Debtors within three (3) Business Days of such acquisition.

10.04    This Section 10 shall not impose any obligation on any Debtor to issue any “cleansing letter” or otherwise publicly disclose information for the purpose of enabling a Consenting Lender to Transfer any of its Company Claims/Interests or acquire any Company Claims/Interests.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, to the extent a Debtor 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.
 
10.05     Notwithstanding Section 10.01, a Qualified Marketmaker that acquires any Company Claims/Interests shall not (x) be required to be or become a Consenting Lender to effect any Transfer of any Company Claims/Interests by a Consenting Lender to such Qualified Marketmaker or (y) be required to execute and deliver a Transfer Agreement in respect of such Company Claims/Interests if (a) such Qualified Marketmaker acquired such Company Claims/Interests with the purpose and intent of acting as a Qualified Marketmaker, (b) such Qualified Marketmaker subsequently Transfers such Company Claims/Interests (by purchase, sale assignment, participation, or otherwise) within ten (10) 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, (c) such subsequent transferee otherwise is a Permitted Transferee under Section 10.01, and (d) such subsequent Transfer otherwise is a Permitted Transfer under Section 10.01.  To the extent that a Consenting Lender is acting in its capacity as a Qualified Marketmaker, it may Transfer or participate any right, title, or interest in any Company Claims/Interests that the Qualified Marketmaker acquires from a holder of Company Claims/Interests who is not a party hereto without the requirement that the transferee be a Permitted Transferee.  For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent Section 10.01 is applicable to such Transfer, the ultimate Permitted Transferee must deliver a properly executed Transfer Agreement to the Debtors in accordance with Section 15.10 unless such Permitted Transferee is a Consenting Lender as of the date of the Transfer.
 
10.06    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 10, the restrictions on Transfer set forth in this Section 10 shall not apply to the grant of any liens or encumbrances on any claims and interests in favor of a bank or broker-dealer holding custody of such claims and interests in the ordinary course of business and which lien or encumbrance is released upon the Transfer of such claims and interests.

13.07   Effect of Termination. Upon the occurrence of a Termination Date as to a Party, except as provided in this section or Section 6 hereof, this Agreement shall be of no further force or effect as to such Party and each Party subject to such termination shall be released from its commitments, undertakings, and agreements under or related to this Agreement and shall have the rights and remedies that it would have had, had it not entered into this Agreement, and shall be entitled to take all actions, whether with respect to the Restructuring Transactions or otherwise, that it would have been entitled to take had it not entered into this Agreement, including with respect to any and all Claims or causes of action.  Upon a termination of this Agreement solely as to the Creditors’ Committee or that arises from any breach of this Agreement by the Creditors’ Committee, the other Parties shall have no further obligations to the Creditors’ Committee hereunder, or to any other Party with respect to the treatment of General Unsecured Claims and/or Unsecured Notes Claims under the Plan.  Upon a termination of this Agreement solely as to the Consenting 2016 Lenders that are members of the Ad Hoc Group of 2016 Term Loan Lenders or that arises from any breach of this Agreement by the Consenting 2016 Lenders that are members of the Ad Hoc Group of 2016 Term Loan Lenders, the other Parties shall have no further obligations to the Consenting 2016 Lenders that are members of the Ad Hoc Group of 2016 Term Loan Lenders with respect to the treatment of their OpCo Term Loan Claims under the Plan as provided under this Agreement, and the treatment of the OpCo Term Loan Claims of such Consenting 2016 Lenders may be reverted to the treatment contemplated under the Original RSA; provided that such terminated Consenting 2016 Lenders shall retain all rights to contest such treatment.  Upon the occurrence of a Termination Date other than pursuant to Section 13.06, (x) any and all consents or ballots tendered prior to such Termination Date by the Parties subject to such termination shall automatically be deemed, for all purposes, to be null and void from the first instance and shall not be considered or otherwise used in any manner by the Parties in connection with the Plan, the Restructuring Transactions or otherwise; and (y) such ballots may be changed or resubmitted regardless of whether the applicable voting deadline has passed (without the need to seek a court order or consent from the Debtors allowing such change or resubmission); provided, however, that any Consenting Lender withdrawing or changing its vote pursuant to this Section 13.07 shall promptly provide written notice of such withdrawal or change to each other Party to this Agreement.  Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as prohibiting any Party from contesting whether any such termination is in accordance with the terms of this Agreement 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 any right of any Party or the ability of any Party to protect and reserve its rights (including rights under this Agreement), remedies, and interests, including its claims against any other Party.  No purported termination of this Agreement shall be effective under this Section 13.07 or otherwise if the Party seeking to terminate this Agreement is in material breach of this Agreement, with such material breach causing, or resulting in, the occurrence of one or more Termination Events.  Nothing in this Section 13.07 shall restrict any Debtor’s right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 13.04(a).  Following the occurrence of a Termination Date, the following shall survive any such termination: (a) any claim for breach of this Agreement that occurs prior to such Termination Date, and all rights and remedies with respect to such claims shall not be prejudiced in any way; (b) the Debtors’ obligations in Section 15.22 of this Agreement up to and including such Termination Date, and after any such Termination Date arising under Section 13.06; and (c) Sections 1.02, 6.01, 6.02, 13.07, 15.01, 15.02, 15.04, 15.05, 15.06, 15.07, 15.08, 15.09, 15.10, 15.11, 15.13, 15.14, 15.15, 15.16, 15.17, 15.18, and 15.19 hereof.  The automatic stay applicable under section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code shall not prohibit a Party from taking any action or delivering any notice necessary to effectuate the termination of this Agreement pursuant to and in accordance with the terms hereof.  For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that any provision of this Section 13.07 conflicts with Section 6 hereof, Section 6 shall control.
 
Section 14.          Amendments and Waivers.
 
(a)      Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 14, this Agreement (including the exhibits, annexes, and schedules hereto (including the Plan)) may not be modified, amended, or supplemented, and no condition or requirement of this Agreement may be waived, in any manner without the prior written consent of each of the Debtors and the Required Consenting BrandCo Lenders; provided that (i) if the proposed modification, amendment, waiver, or supplement has a material, disproportionate, and adverse effect on the rights of the holders of General Unsecured Claims and/or Unsecured Notes Claims, then the consent of the Creditors’ Committee shall also be required to effectuate such modification, amendment, waiver, or supplement; (ii) if the proposed modification, amendment, waiver, or supplement has a material, disproportionate, and adverse effect on the treatment or economic recovery of the OpCo Term Loan Claims (including in a manner that disproportionately and materially adversely affects OpCo Term Loan Claims as a class as compared to 2020 Term B-2 Loan Claims as a class), then the consent of the Required Consenting 2016 Lenders shall also be required to effectuate such modification, amendment, waiver, or supplement; and (iii) if the proposed modification, amendment, waiver, or supplement has a material, disproportionate, and adverse effect on the treatment or economic recovery of any of the Company Claims/Interests held by a Consenting Lender, then the consent of each such affected Consenting Lender shall also be required to effectuate such modification, amendment, waiver, or supplement.
 
32

(b)         Any proposed modification, amendment, waiver, or supplement that does not comply with this Section 14 shall be ineffective and void ab initio.
 
(c)         The waiver by any Party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a further or continuing waiver of such breach or as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach.  No failure on the part of any Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power, or remedy under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any such right, power, or remedy or any provision of this Agreement, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power, or remedy by such Party preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power, or remedy or the exercise of any other right, power, or remedy.  All remedies under this Agreement are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other remedies provided by Law.
 
(d)         Any consent or waiver contemplated in this Section 14 may be provided by electronic mail from counsel to the relevant Party.
 
Section 15.          Miscellaneous.
 
15.01     Acknowledgement.  Notwithstanding any other provision herein, this Agreement is not and shall not be deemed to be an offer with respect to any securities or solicitation of votes for the acceptance of a plan of reorganization for purposes of sections 1125 and 1126 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise.  Any such offer or solicitation will be made only in compliance with all applicable securities Laws, provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, and/or other applicable Law.
 
15.02     Exhibits Incorporated by Reference; Conflicts. Each of the exhibits, annexes, signatures pages, and schedules attached hereto is expressly incorporated herein and made a part of this Agreement, and all references to this Agreement shall include such exhibits, annexes, and schedules.  In the event of any inconsistency between this Agreement (without reference to the exhibits, annexes, and schedules hereto) and the exhibits, annexes, and schedules hereto (including the Plan), this Agreement (without reference to the exhibits, annexes, and schedules thereto) shall govern.
 
15.03    Further Assurances. Subject to the other terms of this Agreement during the Agreement Effective Period, the Parties agree to execute and deliver such other instruments and perform such acts, in addition to the matters herein specified, as may be reasonably appropriate or necessary, or as may be required by order of the Bankruptcy Court, from time to time, to effectuate the Restructuring Transactions, as applicable.
 
15.04    Complete Agreement. Except as otherwise explicitly provided herein, this Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, oral or written, among the Parties with respect thereto, other than any Confidentiality Agreement.
 
33

15.05     GOVERNING LAW; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; SELECTION OF FORUM. THIS AGREEMENT IS TO BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED IN SUCH STATE, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF.  Each Party hereto agrees that it shall bring any action or proceeding in respect of any claim arising out of or related to this Agreement, to the extent possible, in the Bankruptcy Court, and solely in connection with claims arising under this Agreement: (a) irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court; (b) waives any objection to laying venue in any such action or proceeding in the Bankruptcy Court; and (c) waives any objection that the Bankruptcy Court is an inconvenient forum or does not have jurisdiction over any Party hereto.
 
15.06    TRIAL BY JURY WAIVER. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
 
15.07    Execution of Agreement. This Agreement may be executed and delivered in any number of counterparts and by way of electronic signature and delivery, each such counterpart, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute the same agreement.  Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, each individual executing this Agreement on behalf of a Party has been duly authorized and empowered to execute and deliver this Agreement on behalf of said Party.  No Party or its advisors shall disclose to any Person or Entity (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any other Party) the holdings information of any Consenting Lender without such Consenting Lender’s prior written consent; provided that signature pages executed by Consenting Lenders shall be delivered to (a) all Consenting Lenders in redacted form that removes the details of such Consenting Lenders’ holdings of the Company Claims/Interests listed thereon, (b) the Debtors in unredacted form (to be held by the Debtors on a professionals’ eyes-only basis), and (c) the Creditors’ Committee in redacted form that removes the details of Consenting Lenders’ holdings of the Company Claims/Interests listed thereon.  Any public filing of this Agreement, with the Bankruptcy Court or otherwise, which includes executed signature pages to this Agreement shall include such signature pages only in redacted form with respect to the holdings of each Consenting Lender, unless specifically required by the Bankruptcy Code.
 
15.08    Rules of Construction. This Agreement is the product of negotiations among the Debtors and the Consenting Creditor Parties, and in the enforcement or interpretation hereof, is to be interpreted in a neutral manner, and any presumption with regard to interpretation for or against any Party by reason of that Party having drafted or caused to be drafted this Agreement, or any portion hereof, shall not be effective in regard to the interpretation hereof.  The Debtors and the Consenting Creditor Parties were each represented by counsel during the negotiations and drafting of this Agreement and continue to be represented by counsel.

15.11     Reservation of Rights; Waiver. If the Restructuring Transactions are not consummated, or if this Agreement is terminated for any reason pursuant to Section 13 (other than pursuant to Section 13.06), the Parties each fully reserve any and all of their respective rights, remedies, claims, and interests, subject to Sections 14 and Section 6 herein, in the case of any claim for breach of this Agreement.  Further, nothing herein shall be construed to prohibit any Party from appearing as a party in interest in any matter to be adjudicated in the Chapter 11 Cases, so long as, during the Agreement Effective Period, such appearance and the positions advocated in connection therewith are consistent with this Agreement and any Definitive Document and are not for the purpose of, and could not reasonably be expected to have the effect of, hindering, delaying, or preventing the consummation of the Restructuring Transactions.
 
15.12    Independent Due Diligence and Decision-Making. Each Consenting Creditor Party hereby confirms that its decision to execute this Agreement has been based upon its independent investigation of the operations, businesses, financial, and other conditions, and prospects of the Debtors.
 
15.13    Settlement or Compromise. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 408 and any other applicable rules of evidence, this Agreement and all negotiations relating hereto shall not be admissible into evidence in any proceeding other than a proceeding to enforce its terms, pursue the consummation of the Restructuring Transactions, or the payment of damages to which a Party may be entitled under this Agreement.
 
36

15.14    Specific Performance. It is understood and agreed by the Parties that money damages would be an insufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement by any Party, and, except as otherwise provided herein (including Section 6.02 hereof), each non-breaching Party shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief (without the posting of any bond and without proof of actual damages) as a remedy of any such breach, including an order of the Bankruptcy Court or other court of competent jurisdiction requiring any Party to comply promptly with any of its obligations hereunder.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of the Parties will be liable for, and none of the Parties shall claim or seek to recover, any punitive, special, indirect, or consequential damages or damages for lost profits.
 
15.15    Several, Not Joint, Claims. Except where otherwise specified, the agreements, representations, warranties, and obligations of the Consenting Creditor Parties under this Agreement are, in all respects, several and not joint.
 
15.16    Severability and Construction. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect if essential terms and conditions of this Agreement for each Party remain valid, binding, and enforceable.
 
15.17    Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided herein (including Section 6.02 hereof), all rights, powers, and remedies provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at Law or in equity shall be cumulative and not alternative, and the exercise of any right, power, or remedy thereof by any Party shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any other such right, power, or remedy by such Party.
 
15.18     Capacities of Consenting Lenders. Each Consenting Lender has entered into this Agreement on account of all Company Claims/Interests that it holds (directly or through discretionary accounts that it manages or advises) and, except where otherwise specified in this Agreement, shall take or refrain from taking all actions that it is obligated to take or refrain from taking under this Agreement with respect to all such Company Claims/Interests.
 
15.19    Email Consents. Where a written consent, acceptance, approval, or waiver is required pursuant to or contemplated by this Agreement, pursuant to Section 3, Section 14, or otherwise, including a written approval by the Debtors, the Required Consenting BrandCo Lenders, the Required Consenting 2016 Lenders, and the Creditors’ Committee, such written consent, acceptance, approval, or waiver shall be deemed to have occurred if, by agreement between counsel to the Parties submitting and receiving such consent, acceptance, approval, or waiver, it is conveyed in writing (including electronic mail) between each such counsel without representations or warranties of any kind on behalf of such counsel.
 
37

15.20    Enforceability of Agreement. Each of the Parties waives any right to assert that the exercise of termination rights under this Agreement is subject to the automatic stay provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, and expressly stipulates and consents hereunder to the prospective modification of the automatic stay provisions of the Bankruptcy Code for purposes of exercising termination rights under this Agreement, to the extent the Bankruptcy Court determines that such relief is required.
 
15.21  Relationship among Consenting Creditor Parties.
 
(a)      None of the Consenting Creditor Parties shall have any fiduciary duty, any duty of trust or confidence in any form, or other duties or responsibilities in any kind or form to each other, any Consenting Creditor Party, any Debtor, or any of the Debtor’s respective creditors or other stakeholders, and there are no commitments among or between the Consenting Lenders as a result of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein or in the Plan, in each case except as expressly set forth in this Agreement.  Nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action taken by any Consenting Lender pursuant hereto is intended to constitute the Consenting Lenders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that any Consenting Lender is in any way acting in concert or as a member of a “group” with any other Consenting Lender or Consenting Lenders within the meaning of Rule 13d-5 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. As of the date hereof and for so long as this Agreement remains in effect, the Parties have no agreement, arrangement or understanding with respect to acting together for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting or disposing of any securities of any of the Debtors and do not constitute a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act or Rule 13d-5 promulgated thereunder.
 
(b)      The Debtors acknowledge that the Consenting Lenders are engaged in a wide range of financial services and businesses, and, in furtherance of the foregoing, the Consenting Lenders and the Debtors acknowledge and agree that the obligations set forth in this Agreement shall only apply to the trading desk(s) and/or business group(s) of the Consenting Lenders that principally manage and/or supervise such Consenting Lender’s investment in the Debtors, and shall not apply to any other trading desk or business group of such Consenting Lender so long as they are not acting at the direction or for the benefit of such Consenting Lender.
 
15.22    Fees and Expenses. The Debtors shall promptly pay or reimburse when due all reasonable and documented fees and expenses of (a) the BrandCo Lender Group Advisors incurred prior to and during the Agreement Effective Period and after any termination pursuant to Section 13.06, and (b) subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein or in the Final DIP Order and consistent with the orders and procedures applicable to the payment of compensation to estate professionals, the Creditors’ Committee; provided that nothing herein shall alter or modify the Debtors’ payment obligations under the Final DIP Order or any other order of the Bankruptcy Court governing compensation of estate professionals.  On the Plan Effective Date, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and so long as this Agreement has not been terminated as to all of the Consenting 2016 Lenders that are members of the Ad Hoc Group of 2016 Term Loan Lenders, the Debtors shall pay or reimburse all reasonable and documented fees and expenses of (x) the 2016 Term Loan Lender Group Advisors incurred prior to February 16, 2023, in an aggregate amount not to exceed $11 million (excluding any fees and expenses paid to the 2016 Term Loan Lender Group Advisors prior to February 16, 2023) and (y) Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP, as counsel to the Ad Hoc Group of 2016 Term Loan Lenders, incurred after February 16, 2023 through the Plan Effective Date, in an aggregate amount not to exceed $350,000 per month (with such cap prorated for any partial months during such period); provided that such fees and expenses referenced in this clause (y) shall be limited to amounts incurred in furtherance of the Restructuring Transactions and shall be subject to the limitations on the use of funds set forth in paragraph 28 of the Final DIP Order.
