Exhibit B

In the event that Moelis & Company LLC or any of its affiliates or any of its or its affiliates’ respective current or former directors, officers, partners, managers, agents, representatives or employees (including any person controlling us or any of our affiliates) (collectively, “Indemnified Persons”) becomes involved in any capacity in any actual or threatened action, claim, suit, investigation or proceeding (an “Action”) arising out of, related to or in connection with the Forbearance Agreement dated May [●], 2017 (the “Forbearance Agreement”) between the Obligors and the Supporting Holders (each as defined in the Forbearance Agreement), any matter referred to therein or the performance of services by Moelis as requested by any Supporting Holder or its counsel, the Obligors will reimburse such Indemnified Person for the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including counsel fees) of investigating, preparing for and responding to such Action or enforcing this agreement, as they are incurred. The Obligors will also indemnify and hold harmless any Indemnified Person from and against, and the Obligors agree that no Indemnified Person shall have any liability to the Obligors or its affiliates, the Supporting Holders (or any affiliates of any member thereof) or Advisors, or their respective owners, directors, officers, employees, security holders or creditors for, any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (collectively, “Losses”) (A) related to or arising out of oral or written statements or omissions made or information provided by any Obligor or its agents (including information provided by or on behalf of the Obligors to any counterparty to any transaction contemplated by the engagement) or (B) otherwise arising out of, related to or in connection with the Forbearance Agreement, any matter referred to therein or Moelis’ performance of services as requested by any Supporting Holder or its counsel, except that this clause (B) shall not apply to Losses that are finally judicially determined to have resulted primarily from the bad faith or gross negligence of such Indemnified Person.

If such indemnification or limitation on liability for any reason is not available or is insufficient to hold an Indemnified Person harmless, the Obligors agree to contribute to the Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received (or anticipated to be received) by the Obligors and Supporting Holders, on the one hand, and by Moelis, on the other hand, with respect to the Forbearance Agreement or, if such allocation is judicially determined to be unavailable, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits and relative fault of any Obligor, Supporting Holders, on the one hand, and of Moelis, on the other hand, and any other equitable considerations; provided, however, that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall the Indemnified Persons be responsible for amounts that exceed the fees actually received by Moelis from any Obligor in connection with the Forbearance Agreement. Relative benefits to the Obligors and Supporting Holders, on the one hand, and Moelis, on the other hand, with respect to the Forbearance Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as (i) the total value paid or proposed to be paid or received or proposed to be received by the Obligors or its security holders, as the case may be, pursuant to the Potential Transaction, whether or not consummated, contemplated by the Forbearance Agreement bears to (ii) the fees actually received by Moelis in connection with the Forbearance Agreement.

The Obligors will not without the prior written consent of Moelis (not to be unreasonably withheld), settle, compromise, consent to the entry of any judgment in or otherwise seek to terminate (a “Settlement”) any Action (or facilitate the Settlement of any Action) in respect of which indemnification is or may be sought hereunder or in connection with the Potential Transaction contemplated by the Forbearance Agreement to which this Exhibit B is attached (whether or not an Indemnified Person is a party to such Action) unless such Settlement includes a release of each Indemnified Person from any Losses arising out of such Action. The Obligors will not permit any such Settlement to include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault or culpability by or on behalf of an Indemnified Person without such Indemnified Person’s prior written consent. No Indemnified Person seeking indemnification, reimbursement or contribution under this Forbearance Agreement will, without the Obligors’ prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld), agree to the Settlement of any Action.
