(d) upon the Required Consenting Creditors agreeing to support, in writing, an amendment, modification or supplement to this Agreement or the Plan Term Sheet that constitutes an Economic Change (as defined below) to which a Consenting Creditor does not consent;

EXECUTION VERSION

(e) either (i) the Company pursues a Sale that is not acceptable to a Consenting Creditor, or (ii) the Company fails to pursue a Sale that is acceptable to the Consenting Creditor;

(f) the Company (i) pursues any Alternative Transaction, including any plan of reorganization (other than the Plan), or (ii) files, propounds, or otherwise publicly supports or announces that the Debtor or any of its subsidiaries will support any Sale not acceptable to a Consenting Creditor, an Alternative Transaction (including any plan of reorganization other than the Plan), or files any motion or application seeking authority to sell any material assets, without the prior written consent of each Consenting Creditor; or

8.06. Effect of Termination. Other than as set forth in Section 8.02(d) of this Agreement, no Party may terminate this Agreement if such Party failed to perform or comply in all material respects with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, with such failure to perform or comply causing, or resulting in, the occurrence of one or more termination events specified in this Agreement. The date on which termination of this Agreement as to a Party is effective in accordance with Sections 8.01-8.05 of this Agreement shall be referred to as a “Termination Date”. Except as set forth below, upon the occurrence of a Termination Date as to a Party, this Agreement shall be of no further force and effect 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; provided, however, that no such termination shall relieve any Party from liability for its breach or non-performance of its obligations hereunder prior to the date of such termination; provided, further, that Section 8.07 of this Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement. Upon the occurrence of a Termination Date, any and all consents or ballots tendered by the Parties subject to such termination before a Termination Date shall 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 Restructuring Transactions and this Agreement or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the foregoing shall not be construed to prohibit the Debtor or any of the Consenting Creditors from contesting whether any such termination is in accordance with its terms or to seek enforcement of any rights under this Agreement that arose or existed before such Termination Date, nor to seek enforcement of any rights under the Backstop Commitment Agreement or the other Exit Financing Agreements.

8.07. No Violation of Automatic Stay. The automatic stay applicable under section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code shall not prohibit a Consenting Creditor from taking any action necessary to effectuate the termination of this Agreement pursuant to the terms hereof.
