Core Scientific (CORZ) 8-K/AEntry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Contractual Rights; Initial Holders of CVRs; Appointment of CVR Agent.

The CVRs represent the contractual rights of the Holders to receive the Payment Amounts (as defined herein), if any, pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the Plan, each holder of a Convertible Notes Secured Claim (as defined in the Plan) that receives a distribution of New Common Interests pursuant to the Convertible Noteholders Equity Distribution (as defined in the Plan) shall be an initial Holder.

The Company hereby appoints the Agent to act as CVR agent in accordance with the express terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement (and no implied terms or conditions), and the Agent hereby accepts such appointment.

Transferability. Subject to Section 1 of Annex B hereof, the CVRs shall be freely transferable and publicly tradeable by each Holder without the prior consent of the Company, the Agent or any other Person; provided, subject to Section 1.5(i), that the Company and the Agent may require (i) payment of a sum sufficient to cover any documentary, stamp, transfer or other similar Tax or charge that is imposed in connection with any such transfer or (ii) that the transferor establish to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company and the Agent that any such Taxes have been paid. The Agent shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer or exchange imposed under this Agreement or under applicable law with respect to any transfer or exchange of any interest in any CVR other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Agreement, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

Exemption from Securities Registration at Issuance. The issuance of the CVRs is exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to the exemption provided by Section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code. The CVRs shall not be considered a “debt security.”

No Certificate; Registration; Change of Address; CUSIP Number.

The CVRs shall be issued (1) to Holders in book-entry form on the CVR Register (as defined below), in customary form and substance (a “Book-Entry CVR”) or (2) in the form of one or more global certificates (the “Global CVRs”), substantially in the form appended hereto as Annex C. The CVRs shall not be evidenced by a physical certificate.

Subject to the Company furnishing to the Agent the list of Holders, the Agent shall keep a register (the “CVR Register”) for the purpose of (i) identifying the Holders of the CVRs and (ii) documenting the CVRs, which CVR Register may be amended from time to time by the Agent to reflect any changes to Holders or the applicable number of CVRs as permitted hereunder. Until such list of Holders is furnished to the Agent, the Agent shall have no duties, responsibilities or obligations with respect to keeping the CVR Register, providing notices or making payments to such Holders.

The Global CVRs issued shall be deposited with the Agent as custodian for the Depositary and registered in the name of Cede & Co., or such other entity designated by the Depositary as the Depositary’s nominee, in accordance with the Global CVR provisions set out in Annex B hereto.

On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, in accordance with the terms of the Plan, the Company will issue the CVRs in the amounts and to the recipients specified in the Plan. Upon written order of the Company, the Agent shall (i) register in the CVR Register the Book-Entry CVRs and (ii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Depositary one or more Global CVRs evidencing the CVRs.

A Holder may make a written request to the Agent to change such Holder’s address of record in the CVR Register. Such written request must be duly executed by such Holder. Upon receipt of such written request, the Agent shall promptly record the change of address in the CVR Register.

The CUSIP number of the CVRs is 21874A 122. Each of the Company and the Agent shall use such CUSIP number (or any equivalent number, to the extent CUSIP numbers are no longer generally in use) for all applicable bookkeeping purposes in connection with the CVRs. The Company and the Agent shall use such CUSIP number in notices in connection with the CVRs as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that any such notice from the Company or the Agent may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such number and any such notice shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such number. The Company shall promptly notify, or shall cause the Agent to promptly notify, the Calculation Agent and the Holders in writing of any change in the CUSIP number of the CVRs.

The initial Holder of the Global CVR shall be Cede & Co. as nominee for the Depositary. The Agent will have no responsibility whatsoever directly to the street name holders with respect to transfers of Global CVRs. With respect to any payments or issuances to be made under Section 1.5 below, the Agent will accomplish the payment to any former street name holders of Global CVRs by sending one lump sum payment or issuance to the Depositary.

The calculations called for herein shall be made by the Calculation Agent.

To the extent the Objecting Holders timely deliver a Payment Amount Objection Notice to the Company, the Calculation Agent (solely with respect to such Payment Amount), the Company, and such Objecting Holders shall have five (5) Business Days following the receipt of such Payment Amount Objection Notice (the “Resolution Date”) to amicably resolve in good faith any disagreement, dispute, difference or question in connection with such Payment Amount (including the calculation thereof), the corresponding per-CVR Payment Amount (if any) and the number of New Common Interests to be paid in connection with such Payment Amount (if applicable) (an “Amicable Resolution”). To the extent the Calculation Agent, in consultation with the Company, must amend the Payment Triggering Event Notice to make a correction, the Company shall promptly, and in any event no later than four (4) calendar days after the Resolution Date, deliver or cause the Agent to deliver to each Objecting Holder, such amended Payment Triggering Event Notice.

In the event the procedures set forth in Section 1.5(g) are conducted, the Company shall promptly pay any corresponding Payment Amount to the Holders (including any Objecting Holders) in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence without delaying such payment until the conclusion of the procedures set forth in Section 1.5(g). For the avoidance of doubt, the Objecting Holders will (i) be paid the corresponding Payment Amount due to the Holders, concurrently with the other Holders, pursuant to this Section 1.5(f) in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, and (ii) be paid any corresponding amount equal to the difference between the Disputed Payment Amount (as defined below) due to the Objecting Holders pursuant to Section 1.5(g) and the Payment Amount paid to the Objecting Holders pursuant to Section 1.5(f) upon the conclusion of the procedures set forth in Section 1.5(g).

In the event of any continuing disagreement, dispute or difference among any of the Calculation Agent, the Company and the Objecting Holders in connection with the aggregate Payment Amount, the corresponding per-CVR Payment Amount or the number of New Common Interests to be paid in connection with such Payment Amount (if applicable) to the Objecting Holders (such disputed Payment Amount with respect to the Objecting Holders, the “Disputed Payment Amount”), after the procedures set forth in Section 1.5(f) have been conducted, which dispute cannot be amicably

The Company shall set a record date for purposes of determining the Holders entitled to vote or consent to any action authorized or permitted under this Agreement. The record date in connection with any vote or consent to take any action by the Holders under this Agreement shall be the date that is ten (10) Business Days prior to the first solicitation of such vote or consent or such other date as the Company may select. No vote or consent to any action authorized or permitted under this Agreement, except with respect to Sections 1.5(f) and 1.5(g) hereof, shall be valid or effective if taken or made more than one hundred twenty (120) calendar days after the corresponding record date. If a record date is set, only the Holders as of such date shall be entitled to vote or consent to any action permitted under this Agreement, as applicable. The Company shall provide the Holders at least ten (10) Business Days’ notice of any record date set pursuant to this Section 1.5(h).

All Payment Amounts shall be paid free and clear of and without any withholding or deduction, except to the extent required by applicable Law. To the extent required by applicable Laws, the Company, the Agent and any other applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to deduct or withhold, or cause to be deducted or withheld, from any amount payable hereunder, such Taxes as are required to be deducted or withheld as reasonably determined by such applicable withholding agent. To the extent that any amounts are so deducted or withheld, such deducted or withheld amounts shall be properly remitted to the appropriate taxing authority and will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid or distributed to the Holder in respect of which such

If any Payment Amount (or portion thereof, as applicable) is not able to be delivered to a Holder, or the corresponding Participants or beneficial owners of the CVRs (including as a result of uncashed checks, invalid DTC account address information or invalid information on the CVR Register) or otherwise remains unclaimed by a Holder on the date that is two (2) years after the date on which such Payment Amount became due and payable in accordance with this Agreement (or immediately prior to such earlier date on which such Payment Amount (or portion thereof, as applicable) would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Authority), then: (i) such Payment Amount (or portion thereof, as applicable) will, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Company, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto, and (ii) no consideration or compensation shall be payable therefor. Neither the Company nor the Agent will be liable to any Person in respect of such Payment Amount (or portion thereof, as applicable) delivered to a Governmental Authority pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar legal requirement under applicable Law, pursuant to this Section 1.5(j). In addition to and not in limitation of any other indemnity obligation herein, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Agent with respect to any liability, penalty, cost or expense that the Agent may incur or be subject to in connection with transferring such property to the Company.

Upon the occurrence of a Company Bankruptcy Event or the Company’s failure, for any reason, to timely pay in full any owed Payment Amount (subject to the Dispute Resolution Procedures) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (each, a “Liquidated Damages Trigger Event”), the Company shall pay, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, to the Agent, and the Agent shall transfer such funds either (i) to Holders directly for those Holders who hold Book-Entry CVRs, or (ii) to DTC in accordance with applicable rules and procedures of DTC for the benefit of the corresponding beneficial owners of the CVRs (for the avoidance of doubt, in the aggregate among clauses (i) and (ii)) (x) to the extent the Year 1 Contingent Payment Obligation was not previously paid in full or extinguished pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, $43,333,333.33 in cash (in United States Dollars), except that if the First Anniversary Payment Amount was conclusively calculated prior to the occurrence of the Liquidated Damages Trigger Event, the First Anniversary Payment Amount, in each case, less any amount actually paid in cash (in United States Dollars) by the Company with respect to any Year 1 Contingent Payment Obligation, plus (y) to the extent the Year 2 Contingent Payment Obligation was not previously paid in full or extinguished pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, $43,333,333.33 in cash (in United States Dollars), except that if the Second Anniversary Payment Amount was conclusively calculated prior to the occurrence of the Liquidated Damages Trigger Event, the Second Anniversary Payment Amount, in each case, less any amount actually paid in cash (in United States Dollars) or New Common Interests by the Company with respect to any Year 2 Contingent Payment Obligation plus (z) to the extent the Year 3 Contingent Payment Obligation was not previously paid in full or extinguished pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, $43,333,333.33 in cash (in United States Dollars), except that if the Third Anniversary Payment Amount was conclusively calculated prior to the occurrence of the Liquidated Damages Trigger Event, the Third Anniversary Payment Amount, in each case, less any amount actually paid in cash (in United States Dollars) or New Common Interests by the Company with respect to any Year 3 Contingent Payment Obligation. Upon the satisfaction in full of the obligations set forth in this Section 1.5(k) (the “Liquidated Damages Obligations”), the Contingent Payment Obligations shall be extinguished. The Company acknowledges the impossibility of ascertaining the amount of damages that would be suffered by the Holders by reason of the failure by the Company to perform its obligations hereunder and that the Liquidated Damages Obligations are reasonable estimates of the damages, which the Holders will suffer or incur as a result of the event

Upon written request, at its sole expense the Company shall make this Agreement available to the Holders until the expiration of this Agreement and the CVRs pursuant to Section 5.13.

No Voting, Dividends or Interest; No Equity or Ownership Interest. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as conferring upon the Holder (solely in its capacity as the holder of CVRs) the right to vote or to receive distributions or to consent or to receive notice as a stockholder of the Company in respect of any meeting of stockholders of the Company for the election of directors of the Company or of any other matter, or any rights whatsoever as a stockholder of the Company. CVRs shall not represent any equity or ownership interest in the Company or any of its affiliates.

Ability to Abandon CVRs. A Holder may at any time, at such Holder’s sole option, abandon any or all of such Holder’s remaining rights in a CVR by transferring such CVR to the Company or its Affiliates without consideration therefor. Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the Company or any of its Affiliates from offering to acquire or acquiring any CVRs for consideration from the Holders, in private transactions or otherwise, in its sole discretion. Any CVRs acquired by the Company or any of its Affiliates shall be automatically deemed extinguished and no longer outstanding, with prompt written notification by the Company to the Agent of such transfer and cancellation.

Trust Indenture Act. The CVRs issued hereunder shall not constitute (i) a note, bond, debenture, evidence of indebtedness; (ii) a certificate of interest or participation in any such note, bond, debenture, or evidence of indebtedness; or (iii) a temporary certificate for, or guarantee of, any such note, bond, debenture, evidence of indebtedness, or certificate, in each of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) hereof, as such terms are referenced in the TIA, and shall be exempt from the qualification provisions of the TIA.

No Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of New Common Interests under this Agreement. If any fraction of a share of a New Common Interest would be issuable hereunder, such share shall be rounded to the next higher whole number.

Certain Duties and Responsibilities of the Agent.

The Agent shall not have any liability for any actions taken, suffered or omitted to be taken in connection with this Agreement, except to the extent such liability arises as a result of its gross negligence, bad faith, willful misconduct or fraud (each as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment). Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Agent’s aggregate liability during any term of this Agreement with respect to, arising from, or arising in connection with this Agreement, or from all services provided or omitted to be provided under this Agreement, whether in contract, or in tort, or otherwise, is limited to, and shall not exceed, the amounts paid hereunder by the Company to the Agent as fees and charges, but not including reimbursable expenses, during the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event for which recovery from Agent is being sought.

None of the provisions of this Agreement shall require the Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise to incur any liability, financial or otherwise, in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not assured to it.

Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the Agent be liable for special, indirect, punitive, incidental or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

The Agent may execute and exercise any of the rights or powers hereby vested in it or perform any duty hereunder either itself or by or through its attorneys, accountants, agents or other experts, and the Agent will not be liable for any act, default, neglect or misconduct of any such attorneys or agents or for any loss to the Company or the Holders resulting from any such act, default, neglect or misconduct, absent gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in the selection and continued employment thereof (each as determined by a final non-appealable order, judgment, ruling or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction).

In no event shall the Agent be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control,

In the event the Agent reasonably believes any ambiguity or uncertainty exists hereunder or in any notice, instruction, direction, request or other communication, paper or document received by the Agent hereunder, or is for any reasonably justifiable reason unsure as to what action to take hereunder, the Agent shall notify the Company in writing as soon as practicable, and upon delivery of such notice may, in its sole discretion, refrain from taking any action, and shall be fully protected and shall not be liable in any way to the Company or any Holder or other Person for refraining from taking such action, unless the Agent receives written instructions signed by the Company which eliminates such ambiguity or uncertainty to the reasonable satisfaction of the Agent.

The Agent and the Company agree that all books, records, information and data pertaining to the business of the other party, including inter alia, personal, non-public Holder information, which are exchanged or received pursuant to the negotiation or the carrying out of this Agreement including the fees for services set forth in the Fee Schedule shall remain confidential, and shall not be voluntarily disclosed to any other person, except as may be required by law, including, without limitation, pursuant to subpoenas from state or federal government authorities (e.g., in divorce and criminal actions).

Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

The Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Company and the Holders specifying a date when such resignation shall take effect, which notice shall be sent at least thirty (30) calendar days prior to the date so specified.

The Company and the Majority Holders shall each have the right to remove the Agent at any time by specifying a date when such removal shall take effect. Written notice of such removal shall be given by the Company or the Majority Holders to the Agent, as applicable, which notice shall be sent at least thirty (30) calendar days prior to the date so specified.

If the Agent shall resign, become incapable of acting or is removed by the Company or the Majority Holders, the Company shall promptly appoint a qualified successor Agent, provided, that, the Majority Holders may notify the Company of their preference of qualified successor Agent hereunder and the Company shall reasonably take such preference into account in its selection. The successor Agent so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with this Section 2.4(c) and Section 2.5, become the Agent for all purposes hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company and the Majority Holders fail to make such appointment within a period of thirty (30) days after giving notice to the Agent of such removal or after they have been notified in writing of such resignation or incapacity by the resigning or incapacitated Agent, then any Holder may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Agent.

The Company shall give notice of each resignation or removal of the Agent and each appointment of a successor Agent through the facilities of DTC in accordance with DTC’s procedures and/or by mailing written notice of such event by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the Holders as their names and addresses appear in the CVR Register. Each notice shall include the name and address of the successor Agent. If the Company fails to send such notice within ten (10) Business Days after acceptance of appointment by a successor Agent, the successor Agent shall cause the notice to be mailed at the expense of the Company. Failure to give any notice provided for in this Section 2.4 shall not affect the legality or validity of the resignation or removal of the Agent or the appointment of the successor Agent, as the case may be.

The Agent will cooperate with the Company and any successor Agent in connection with the transition of the duties and responsibilities of the Agent to the successor Agent, including transferring the CVR Register to the successor Agent; provided that, the predecessor Agent shall not be required to make any additional expenditure or assume any additional liability in connection with the foregoing.

Any Person into which the Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Agent shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the corporate trust business of the Agent shall be the successor of the Agent hereunder without the execution or filing of any paper with any party hereto or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto except where an instrument of transfer or assignment is required by law to effect such succession, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding. The Agent shall give notice to the Company promptly upon the occurrence of such transaction as described in this Section 2.4(f).

Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. Every successor Agent appointed hereunder shall, at or prior to such appointment, execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Agent an instrument accepting such appointment and a counterpart of this Agreement, and thereupon such successor Agent, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the Agent; provided that upon the request of the Company or the successor Agent, such resigning or removed Agent shall execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Agent all the rights, powers and trusts of such resigning or removed Agent.

Headings. The headings and table of contents contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendments to this Agreement may be executed in one or more textually identical counterparts, all of which will be considered one and the same agreement and will become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties to this Agreement and delivered to the other parties to this Agreement and the Holders, it being understood that all parties to this Agreement need not sign the same counterpart. Any such counterpart, to the extent delivered by fax or.pdf .tif, .gif, .jpg or similar attachment to electronic mail (any such delivery, an “Electronic Delivery”), will be treated in all manner and respects as an original executed counterpart and will be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. No party to this Agreement or Holder may raise the use of an Electronic Delivery to deliver a signature, or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of an Electronic Delivery, as a defense to the formation of a contract, and each party to this Agreement and Holder forever waives any such defense, except to the extent such defense relates to lack of authenticity. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to this Agreement or any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, including without limitation, digital signature provided by DocuSign, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such expiration shall affect any rights or obligations accrued prior to the effective date of such expiration.

Legal Holidays. In the event that the day on which any Payment Amount is due shall not be a Business Day, then, notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any payment required to be made in respect of the CVRs shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the last day on which such Payment Amount is due.

Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Agreement to an Article, Annex or Section, such reference shall be to an Article, Annex or Section of this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” The words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. All terms defined in this Agreement shall have the defined meanings when used in any certificate or other document made or delivered pursuant of this Agreement unless otherwise defined therein. The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms and to the masculine as well as to the feminine and neuter genders of such term. Any agreement, instrument or statute defined or referred to herein or in any agreement or instrument that is referred to herein means such agreement, instrument or statute as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including (in the case of agreements or instruments) by waiver or consent and (in the case of statutes) by succession of comparable successor statutes and references to all attachments thereto and instruments incorporated therein.

Transfer and Exchange of Global CVRs or Beneficial Interests Therein. The transfer and exchange of Global CVRs or beneficial interests therein shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with this Agreement and the procedures of the Depositary therefor.

Exchange of a Beneficial Interest in a Global CVR for a Book-Entry CVR.

Any Holder of a beneficial interest in a Global CVR may, upon request, exchange such beneficial interest for a Book-Entry CVR. Upon receipt by the Agent from the Depositary or its nominee of written instructions or such other form of instructions as is customary for the Depositary on behalf of any Person having a beneficial interest in a Global CVR, the Agent shall cause, in accordance with the standing instructions and procedures existing between the Depositary and Agent, the number of CVRs represented by the Global CVR to be reduced by the number of CVRs to be represented by the Book-Entry CVRs to be issued in exchange for the beneficial interest of such Person in the Global CVR and, following such reduction, the Agent shall register in the name of the Holder a Book-Entry CVR and deliver to said Holder a statement, as issued by the Agent from time to time to the registered holder of Book-Entry CVRs reflecting such book-entry position (a “CVR Statement”).

Book-Entry CVRs issued in exchange for a beneficial interest in a Global CVR pursuant to this Section 1 shall be registered in such names as the Depositary, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Agent. The Agent shall deliver such CVR Statements to the Persons in whose names such Book-Entry CVRs are so registered.

Transfer and Exchange of Book-Entry CVRs. Book-Entry CVRs surrendered for exchange or for registration of transfer pursuant to this Section 1(c) or Section 1(i)(iv), shall be cancelled by the Agent. Such cancelled Book-Entry CVRs shall then be disposed of by or at the direction of the Company in accordance with applicable law. When Book-Entry CVRs are presented to or deposited with the Agent with a written request:

to register the transfer of the Book-Entry CVRs; or

to exchange such Book-Entry CVRs for an equal number of Book-Entry CVRs of other authorized denominations;

Upon receipt by the Agent of appropriate instruments of transfer with respect to a Book-Entry CVR, in a form satisfactory to the Agent, together with written instructions directing the Agent to make, or to direct the Depositary to make, an endorsement on the Global CVR to reflect an increase in the number of CVRs represented by the Global CVR equal to the number of CVRs represented by such Book-Entry CVR (such instruments of transfer and instructions to be duly executed by the holder thereof or the duly appointed legal

Restrictions on Exchange or Transfer of Global CVRs. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement (other than the provisions set forth in Section 1(f)), unless and until it is exchanged in whole for a Book-Entry CVR, a Global CVR may not be transferred as a whole except by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary.

Book-Entry CVRs. If at any time, the Depositary for the Global CVR notifies the Company that the Depositary is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the Global CVR and a successor Depositary for the Global CVR is not appointed by the Company within ninety (90) days after delivery of such notice, then the Agent, upon written instructions signed by an Appropriate Officer of the Company and all other necessary information, shall register Book-Entry CVRs, in an aggregate number equal to the number of CVRs represented by the Global CVRs, in exchange for such Global CVRs, in such names and in such amounts as directed by the Depositary or, in the absence of instructions from the Depositary, the Company.

Restrictions on Transfers of CVRs. No CVRs shall be sold, exchanged or otherwise transferred in violation of the Securities Act or applicable state securities laws. Each Holder, by its acceptance of any CVR under this Agreement, acknowledges and agrees that the CVRs (including any New Common Interests issued at the Company’s discretion pursuant to this Agreement) were issued pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirement of Section 5 of the Securities Act provided by Section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code, and to the extent that a Holder is an “underwriter” as defined in Section 1145(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, such Holder may not be able to sell or transfer any New Common Interests in the absence of an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or an exemption from registration thereunder.

Cancellation of Global CVR Certificate. At such time as all beneficial interests in Global CVRs have either been exchanged for Book-Entry CVRs, redeemed, repurchased or cancelled, all Global CVRs shall be returned to, or retained and cancelled by, the Agent, upon written instructions from the Company satisfactory to the Agent.

Obligations with Respect to Transfers and Exchanges of CVRs.

To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute Global CVRs, if applicable, and the Agent is hereby authorized, in accordance with the provisions of this Section 1, to countersign by either manual, facsimile or other electronic signature such Global CVRs, if applicable, or register Book-Entry CVRs, if applicable, as required pursuant to the provisions of this Section 1.

All Book-Entry CVRs and Global CVRs issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Book-Entry CVR or Global CVRs shall be the valid obligations of the Company, entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement as the Book-Entry CVRs or Global CVRs surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

So long as the Depositary, or its nominee, is the registered owner of a Global CVR, the Depositary or such nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner or Holder of the CVRs represented by such Global CVRs for all purposes under this Agreement. Except as provided in Sections 1(b) and 1(f) upon the exchange of a beneficial interest in a Global CVRs for Book-Entry CVRs, owners of beneficial interests in a Global CVRs will not be entitled to have any CVRs registered in their names, and will under no circumstances be entitled to receive physical delivery of any such CVRs and will not be considered the owners or Holders thereof under the CVRs or this Agreement. Neither the Company nor the Agent, in its capacity as registrar for such CVRs, will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to beneficial interests in a Global CVRs or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial interests. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Agent or any agent of the Company or the Agent from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or impair the operations of customary practices of the Depositary governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of a beneficial interest in a Global CVRs.

Subject to Sections 1(b), 1(c) and 1(d) hereof, and this Section 1(i), the Agent shall, upon receipt of all information required to be delivered hereunder and any evidence of authority that may be reasonably required by the Agent, from time to time register the transfer of any outstanding CVRs in the CVR Register, upon surrender of Global CVRs, if applicable, representing such CVRs at the office of the Agent, duly endorsed, and accompanied by a completed form of assignment, duly signed by the Holder thereof or by the duly appointed legal representative thereof or by a duly authorized attorney and accompanied by a Signature Guarantee. Upon any such registration of transfer, a new Global CVR or a CVR Statement, as the case may be, shall be issued to the transferee.

Execution of Global CVRs.

Global CVRs shall be signed on behalf of the Company by its Chief Executive Officer, its Chief Financial Officer, its President, its General Counsel, a Vice President, its Secretary, an Assistant Secretary or any other authorized person appointed by the board of directors (the “Board of Directors”) of the Company from time to time (each, an “Appropriate Officer”). Each such signature upon the Global CVRs may be in the form of a facsimile or electronic signature of any such Appropriate Officer and may be imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the Global CVRs and for that purpose the Company may adopt and use the facsimile or electronic signature of any Appropriate Officer.

If any Appropriate Officer who shall have signed any of the Global CVRs shall cease to be an Appropriate Officer before the Global CVRs so signed shall have been countersigned by the Agent or disposed of by the Company, such Global CVRs nevertheless may be countersigned and delivered or disposed of as though such Appropriate Officer had not ceased to be an Appropriate Officer of the Company, and any Global CVRs may be signed on behalf of the Company by any Person who, at the actual date of the execution of such Global CVRs, shall be an Appropriate Officer, although at the date of the execution of this Agreement such Person was not an Appropriate Officer. Global CVRs shall be dated the date of countersignature by the Agent and shall represent one or more whole CVRs.
