then, (1) upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 8(a)(viii) or 8(a)(ix), automatically, and (2) upon the occurrence of any other Event of Default, at the request of (or with the consent of) the Requisite Holders upon notice to Parent by such Requisite Holders, (A) each of the following shall immediately become due and payable, in each case without presentment, demand, protest or other requirements of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Parent and each Guarantor: (i) the unpaid principal amount of and accrued interest on the Notes, and (ii) all other Obligations; (B) Requisite Holders may cause the Collateral Agent to enforce any and all Liens and security interests created pursuant to the Collateral Documents; and (C) Requisite Holders may exercise all other remedies available under Applicable Law (or under the Financing Documents).

If requested by Parent, the Holders shall promptly execute an instrument evidencing such amendment, modification or waiver.

(a) Parent shall keep at its principal executive office a register for the registration and transfers of Notes. The name and address of each holder of one or more Notes, each transfer thereof and the name and address of the transferee of one or more Notes shall be registered in such register. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer, the Person in whose name any Note shall be registered shall be deemed and treated as the owner and Holder thereof for all purposes of this Agreement. Parent shall not be affected by any notice or knowledge to the contrary. Parent shall give to any holder of a Note that is an institutional investor promptly after receipt of a request, a complete and correct copy of the names and addresses of all registered Holders.

(b) Upon surrender of any Note at the principal executive office of Parent for registration of transfer or exchange (and in the case of a surrender for registration of transfer, duly indorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly authorized by the Holder or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing and accompanied by the address for notices of each transferee of Note or part thereof), Parent shall execute and deliver, at Parent’s expense (except as provided below), one or more new Notes (as requested by the transferor) in exchange therefor, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of the surrendered Note. Each such new Note shall be payable to such Person as the transferor shall request. Each such new Note shall be dated and bear interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on the surrendered Note or dated the date of the surrendered Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon. Parent may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp tax or governmental charge imposed in respect of any such transfer of Notes. Notes shall not be transferred in denominations of less than $1,000,000; provided, that if necessary to enable the registration of transfer by a Holder of its entire remaining holdings of Notes, one Note may be in a denomination of less than $1,000,000. Any transferee, by its acceptance of a Note registered in its name (or the name of its nominee), shall be deemed to have made the representation in Section 4.2.

(c) Upon receipt by Parent of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note (which evidence shall be, in the case of an institutional investor, notice from such institutional investor of such ownership and such loss, theft, destruction or mutilation), and (i) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to Parent (provided that if such Holder is, or is nominee for, an institutional investor, such Person’s own unsecured agreement of indemnity shall be deemed to be satisfactory), or (ii) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and

cancellation thereof, Parent, at its own expense, shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Note, dated and bearing interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon.

(a) Subject to Section 9.2(b), payments of principal and Change in Control Price becoming due and payable on the Notes shall be made in The City of New York from a bank account of Parent located in such jurisdiction. Parent, may at any time, by notice to each Holder, change the place of payment of such Notes so long as such place of payment shall be either the principal office of Parent in The City of New York or an office of a bank or trust company in such jurisdiction.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 9.2(a), Parent shall pay all sums becoming due in cash on each Note for principal or Change in Control Price becoming due on a Note by the method and at the address specified for such purpose on a Purchaser’s signature page to this Agreement, or by such other method or at such other address as a Holder shall from time to time provide in writing to Parent for such purpose, without the presentation or surrender of such Note or the making of any notation thereon, except that upon the written request of Parent concurrently with or reasonably promptly after payment of any Note, the Holder shall surrender such Note for cancellation, reasonably promptly after such request, to Parent at its principal executive offices. Prior to any sale or other disposition of any Note by any Holder, the Holder shall either indorse on the Note the principal on such Note and the last date to which interest has been paid on such Note or surrender such Note to Parent in exchange for a new Note or Notes pursuant to Section 9.1.

(a) Neither Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries shall purchase or otherwise acquire any Note except pursuant to an offer made pro rata and on the same terms to all Holders of Notes. If Parent or any of its Subsidiaries acquires any Notes, such Notes shall be cancelled and shall not be reissued, and no Note shall be issued in substitution of such Note.

(b) Parent shall not have the right to prepay any Note prior to the Maturity Date.

9.4 Conversion at Option of Holder. Each Holder of A-1 Notes or A-2 Notes, if any, shall have the right, at its option, at any time, and from time to time, after the Closing Date to convert, subject to the terms and provisions of this Section 9.4, as follows:

(a) any or all of such Holder’s A-1 Notes may be converted into such number of fully-paid and nonassessable shares of Conversion Preferred Stock as is equal to the quotient of (x) the principal amount of such Note together with accrued and unpaid interest on such Note to and including the Conversion Date divided by (y) the product of (i) the Conversion Price in effect at the close of business on the Conversion Date and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock into which one share of Conversion Preferred Stock may be converted (using the then applicable conversion price and ignoring any restrictions on such convertibility) pursuant

the Certificate of Designation (the “A-1 Conversion Rate”); provided, however, that the A-1 Notes shall convert into shares of Common Stock at the A-2 Conversion Rate if, (i) the A-1 Holders so elect, or (ii) at the time of conversion, any shares of Conversion Preferred Stock have been converted to Common Stock pursuant to the conversion provisions contained in Section 5(a)(ii) or 5(b)(ii) of the Certificate of Designation;

(b) any and all of such Holder’s A-2 Notes, if any, may be converted into such number of fully-paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock, as is equal, to the quotient of (x) the principal amount of such Note together with accrued and unpaid interest on such Note to and including the Conversion Date divided by (y) the Conversion Price in effect at the close of business on the Conversion Date (the “A-2 Conversion Rate”);

(c) the conversion right of a Holder shall be exercised by the Holder by the surrender of the Notes to be converted to Parent at any time during usual business hours at Parent’s principal place of business, accompanied by written notice that the Holder elects to convert all or a portion of the Notes represented by such certificate and specifying the name or names (with address) in which a certificate or certificates for shares of Conversion Preferred Stock or Common Stock, as the case may be, are to be issued and (if so required by Parent) by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to Parent duly executed by the Holder or its duly authorized attorney and transfer tax stamps or funds therefor, if required pursuant to Section 9.1(b). Immediately prior to the close of business on the Conversion Date, each converting Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the shares of Conversion Preferred Stock or Common Stock, as applicable, issuable upon conversion of such Holder’s Notes, notwithstanding that the share register of Parent shall then be closed or that certificates representing such Common Stock shall not then be actually delivered to such Person. Immediately prior to the close of business on a Conversion Date, all rights with respect to the Notes so converted, including the rights, if any, to receive notices, shall terminate, except only the rights of Holders thereof to (i) receive certificates for the number of shares of Conversion Preferred Stock or Common Stock, as the case may be, into which such shares of Notes have been converted; and (ii) exercise the rights to which they are entitled as holders of Conversion Preferred Stock or Common Stock, as the case may be; and

(d) no fractional shares of Common Stock or Conversion Preferred Stock shall be issued upon the conversion of any A-1 Note or A-2 Note, or portion thereof, and the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock or Conversion Preferred Stock to be issued to a particular Holder shall be rounded down to the nearest whole share of Common Stock or Conversion Preferred Stock, as the case may be, and Parent shall pay in cash the Current Market Value of any fractional shares of the time when entitlement to receive such fractions is determined. Whether or not fractional shares of Common Stock or Conversion Preferred Stock would be issuable upon such conversion shall be determined on the basis of the total number of shares of Common Stock or Conversion Preferred Stock issuable to such Holder upon such conversion.

(a) Upon the occurrence of any Trading Period after the Second Anniversary, Parent shall have the right to convert up to 95% of the original principal amount of

each of the A-1 Notes and the A-2 Notes, if any, and upon the occurrence of any Trading Period after the Third Anniversary, Parent shall have the right to convert all of the remaining principal amount of each of the A-1 Notes and the A-2 Notes, if any (each an “Optional Conversion”), at the Conversion Price plus accrued and unpaid interest

(b) If Parent shall have the right to convert Notes pursuant to Section 9.5(a), Parent shall not exercise such right unless (i) Parent has complied with Section 2.4 of the Registration Rights Agreement, (ii) if less than all of the Notes are to be converted, such conversion shall be done pro rata among the A-1 Notes and the A-2 Notes, if any, based on the aggregate outstanding principal amount thereof on the Forced Conversion Date and (iii) Parent notifies each Holder, within two Trading Days, of the completion of any Trading Period for which it elects to effect an Optional Conversion. If Parent fails to comply with the requirements of this Section 9.5(b) in connection with an Optional Conversion, Parent shall loose the right to such Optional Conversion for the instant Trading Period and shall not be able to exercise its right to effect a redemption until the next occurrence of a Trading Period (commencing no earlier than thirty days before the day immediately following completion of the preceding Trading Period).

(c) If Parent desires to exercise its conversion right pursuant to this Section 9.5, the Notes shall be converted into such number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Conversion Preferred Stock or Common Stock, as the case may be, at the A-1 Conversion Rate and the A-2 Conversion Rate, as applicable; provided that the A-1 Notes shall convert into Common Stock at the A-2 Conversion Rate, if, at the time of conversion, any shares of Conversion Preferred Stock have been converted into Common Stock pursuant to the conversion provisions contained in Section 5(a)(ii) or 5(b)(ii) of the Certificate of Designation. Such conversion shall be effective immediately prior to the close of business on the Forced Conversion Date without any action by any Holder. Immediately prior to the close of business on the Forced Conversion Date, each Holder of Notes as of the close of business on such date shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the shares of Conversion Preferred Stock or Common Stock, as the case may be, issuable upon conversion of such Holder’s Notes, notwithstanding that the share register of Parent shall then be closed or that certificates representing such shares of Conversion Preferred Stock or Common Stock, as the case may be, shall not then be actually delivered to such Person. At the close of business on the Forced Conversion Date, all rights with respect to the Notes so converted, including the rights, if any, to receive notices, shall terminate, except only the rights of Holders thereof to (i) receive certificates for the number of shares of Conversion Preferred Stock or Common Stock, as the case may be, into which such shares of Notes have been converted; and (ii) exercise the rights to which they are entitled as holders of Conversion Preferred Stock or Common Stock, as the case may be. No former Holder shall be entitled to receive certificates representing shares of Conversion Preferred Stock or Common Stock, as the case may be, issued pursuant to this Section 9.5, unless and until such former Holder surrenders the converted Notes to Parent at its principal executive office. Promptly following surrender of such converted Notes, Parent shall issue certificates representing the shares of Conversion Preferred Stock or Common Stock, as the case may be, into which such surrendered Note was converted registered in the name of the former Holder of such Note or such other Person as such former Holder shall specify, so long as such former Holder has complied with the transfer procedures set forth in Section 9.1(b).

9.6 Conversion Price. The Conversion Price is subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 9.6.

then the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such action shall be adjusted so that the Holder of Note thereafter exercised may receive the number of shares of Capital Stock of Parent which such Holder would have owned immediately following such action if such Holder had converted such Note (and any Conversion Preferred Stock issuable upon such conversion, if applicable) immediately prior to such action or immediately prior to the record date applicable thereto, if any (regardless of whether the Notes or Preferred Stock are then convertible).

(ii) The adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date in the case of a dividend or distribution and immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification. If such dividend or distribution is not so paid or made or such subdivision, combination or reclassification is not effected, the Conversion Price shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such record date or effective date had not been so fixed.

(iii) If after an adjustment a Holder upon conversion of a Note may receive shares of two or more classes of Capital Stock of Parent, the Conversion Price shall thereafter be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of an action taken with respect to any such class of Capital Stock as is contemplated by this Section 9.6(a) with

respect to the Common Stock, on terms comparable to those applicable to Common Stock in this Section 9.6.

(i) If, after the date hereof, Parent grants or sells any Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any Common Stock at a price below the then applicable Conversion Price (a “Dilutive Issuance”) other than:

AC= Aggregate consideration paid for the securities issued in the Dilutive Issuance;

AS = Number of shares of securities (on as-converted basis) issued in the Dilutive Issuance.

CS = Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Dilutive Issuance (“Common Stock Outstanding”) shall mean and include the following: (1) outstanding Common Stock, (2) Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all outstanding Preferred Stock, (3) Common Stock issuable, assuming a net exercise, upon exercise of all stock options outstanding on the Closing Date with an exercise price equal to or less than $2.00 per share, (4) Common Stock issuable upon exercise of options issued after the Closing Date for which the exercise price equals or exceeds the Current Market Value of the Common Stock on the date of issuance of such options, (5) Common Stock issuable, assuming a net exercise, upon exercise (and, in the case of warrants to purchase Preferred Stock, conversion) of all warrants outstanding (or issuable pursuant to this Agreement) on the Closing Date with a strike price per share equal to or less than $2.00 per share, and (6) Common Stock issuable upon exercise of warrants issued after the Closing Date for which the exercise price equals or exceeds the Current Market Value of the Common Stock on the date of issuance of such warrants. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Common Stock Outstanding shall exclude Warrant Shares and shares of Conversion Preferred Stock or Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes. Shares described in (1) through (6) above shall be included whether vested or unvested, whether contingent or non-contingent and whether exercisable or not yet exercisable); and

(ii) The adjustment shall become effective immediately after the Dilutive Issuance.

(iii) In the case of the issuance of a Dilutive Issuance for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefor before deducting any reasonable discounts, commissions or other expenses allowed, paid or incurred by Parent for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof.

(iv) In the case of a Dilutive Issuance for a consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair market value thereof as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors irrespective of any accounting treatment.

(v) In the case of the issuance of options to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock, securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock or options to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities, the following provisions shall apply for purposes of determining the number of shares of Additional Stock issued and the consideration paid therefore:

(iv) No adjustment shall be made under this Section 9.6(b) for any adjustment which is the subject of Section 9.6(a).

(c) Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted, Parent shall promptly mail to Holders of Notes then outstanding at the addresses appearing on the Notes register maintained pursuant to Section 9.1(a) a notice of the adjustment. Parent shall obtain a certificate from Parent’s independent public accountants briefly stating the facts requiring the adjustment and the manner of computing it. The certificate shall be conclusive evidence that the adjustment is correct.

(d) If Parent consummates a Fundamental Transaction, as a condition to consummating any such transaction the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger if other than Parent or the Person to whom such transfer has been made (the “Surviving Person”) shall assume the obligations under the Notes and issue to each Holder an assumption agreement. The assumption agreement shall provide (i) that the holder of a Note then outstanding may convert it for the kind and amount of securities, cash or other assets which such holder would have received immediately after the Fundamental Transaction if such holder had converted such Note immediately before the effective date of the transaction, assuming (to the extent applicable) that such holder (A) was not a constituent Person or an affiliate of a constituent Person to such transaction, (B) made no election with respect thereto, and (C) was treated alike with the plurality of non-electing holders, and (ii) that the Surviving Person shall succeed to and be substituted to every obligation of Parent in respect of this Agreement and the Notes. The assumption agreement shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 9.6. The Surviving Person shall mail to Holders at the addresses appearing on the Notes register

maintained pursuant to Section 9.1(a) a notice briefly describing the assumption agreement. If the issuer of securities deliverable upon exercise of Notes is an affiliate of the Surviving Person, that issuer shall join in such agreement.

(e) Parent shall at all times reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued Conversion Preferred Stock and Common Stock, as applicable, or shares of Conversion Preferred Stock or Common Stock held in the treasury of Parent, for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Notes, the full number of shares of Conversion Preferred Stock and Common Stock, as applicable, then deliverable upon the conversion of all Notes then outstanding, and the shares so deliverable shall be fully paid and nonassessable and free from all Liens.

(f) After an adjustment to the Conversion Price under this Section 9.6, any subsequent event requiring an adjustment under this Section 9.6 shall cause an adjustment to the Conversion Price as so adjusted.

(g) No Adjustment in the Conversion Price need be made unless the adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in the Conversion Price. Any adjustments that are not made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustments. All adjustments to the Conversion Price calculated under this Section 9.6 shall be made to the nearest 1/1,000th of a share.

(h) Parent shall not be required to issue fractional shares upon conversion of the Notes or distribute share certificates that evidence fractional shares. In lieu of fractional shares, there shall be paid to the former Holders an amount in cash equal to the same fraction of the Current Market Value, per share on the Business Day preceding the Conversion Date or Forced Conversion Date, as applicable. Such payments shall be made by check. If any Holder surrenders for conversion more than one Note, the number of shares deliverable to such holder may, at the option of Parent, be computed on the basis of the aggregate amount of all the Notes exercised by such Holder.

(i) If at any time Parent grants, issues or sells options, convertible securities, or rights to purchase stock, warrants or other securities pro rata to the record holders of any Common Stock (“Distribution Rights”) or, without duplication, makes any dividend or otherwise makes any distribution, including, subject to applicable law, pursuant to any plan of liquidation (“Distribution”) on the Common Stock, then Parent shall grant, issue, sell or make to each Holder of Notes then outstanding, the aggregate Distribution Rights or Distribution, as the case may be, which such holder would have acquired if such holder had held the maximum number of shares acquirable upon complete conversion of such Holder’s Notes (regardless of whether the Notes are then exercisable) immediately before the record date for the grant, issuance or sale of such Distribution Rights or Distribution, as the case may be, or, if there is no such record date, the date as of which the record holders of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Distribution Rights or Distribution, as the case may be.

(a) If a Change in Control occurs, each Holder shall have the right, at such Holder’s option, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, to require Parent to repurchase all or any part of such Holder’s Notes at a cash price (the “Change in Control Payment”) equal to the principal amount of such Note, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to and including the date the Notes tendered are purchased and paid for in accordance with this Section 9.7 (the “Change in Control Payment Date”).

(b) If a Change in Control occurs, Parent shall be required to commence an offer to purchase Securities (a “Change in Control Offer”), as follows:

(i) the Change in Control Offer shall commence within ten Business Days following the Change in Control date;

(ii) the Change in Control Offer shall remain open for at least twenty Business Days, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law, but in any case not more than ninety Business Days after the occurrence of the Change in Control (or not more than 120 days of the Change in Control if, during any such extension beyond ninety days following the Change in Control, Parent is diligently pursuing all commercially reasonable steps to consummate the Change in Control Offer as promptly as practicable); and

(iii) on or before the commencement of any Change in Control Offer, Parent shall send a notice to each of the Holders which shall (to the extent consistent with this Agreement) govern the terms of the Change in Control Offer and shall state:

“Option of Holder to Elect to Have Notes Purchase” on the reverse of the Note completed, to the paying agent (which may not be Parent or any affiliate of Parent) at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the earlier of (a) the third Business Day prior to the Change in Control Payment Date and (b) the third Business Day following the expiration of the Change in Control Offer (such earlier date being the “Change in Control Put Date”);

(c) Any such Change in Control Offer shall comply with all applicable provisions of Federal and state laws, including those regulating tender offers, if applicable, and any provisions of this Agreement which conflict with such laws shall be deemed to be superseded by the provisions of such laws.

(d) On or before the Change in Control Payment Date, Parent shall (i) accept for payment Notes or portions thereof properly tendered pursuant to the Change in Control Offer on or before the Change in Control Put Date and (ii) deposit with the paying agent cash sufficient to pay the Change in Control Payment (including accrued and unpaid interest) for all Notes or portions thereof so tendered. The paying agent shall on the Change in Control Payment Date mail to Holders of Notes so accepted payment in an amount equal to the Change in Control Payment for such Notes, and Parent shall promptly issue and mail or deliver to such Holders a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered. Parent shall not have any obligation to accept for payment or pay for any Notes tendered by a Holder after the Change in Control Put Date. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by Parent to the Holder thereof.

9.8 Payment of Interest in Kind. Interest payments on the Notes may not be paid in cash. Parent shall, on each interest payment date, issue and sell, to each Holder, Notes identical on terms to the Notes held by such Holder (the “PIK Notes”) in an aggregate principal

amount equal to $1,000 times the next lowest integer to the quotient of (a) the interest accrued and unpaid on all Notes owned by such Holder as of such interest payment date divided by (b) $1,000. PIK Notes may be denominated in aggregate principal amounts of less than $1,000. Each PIK Note shall be dated such interest payment date and registered in the name of the Holder of the Note with respect to which such PIK Note relates. Such PIK Note shall accrue interest, payable in additional PIK Notes, from and after its date of issue.

(a) During the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the 180th day following the Closing Date (the “Transfer Restriction Period”), the Notes (or any shares of Common Stock or Conversion Preferred Stock acquired upon conversion of the Notes) shall not be Transferred.

(b) During the Transfer Restriction Period, the Warrants (or any shares of Common Stock or Conversion Preferred Stock acquired upon exercise of the Warrants) shall not be Transferable.

(c) After the expiration of the Transfer Restriction Period, each Purchaser covenants that it shall not Transfer the Notes (or any shares of Common Stock or Conversion Preferred Stock acquired upon conversion of the Notes) to any Person except pursuant to an effective registration under the Securities Act or in a transaction which, in the opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to Parent, qualifies as an exempt transaction under the Securities Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

(d) The Notes and the certificates evidencing the shares of Conversion Preferred Stock or Common Stock, as the case may be, issuable upon conversion of the Notes shall bear the following legend reflecting the foregoing restrictions on the transfer of such securities:

“THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE, AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR IN A TRANSACTION WHICH, IN THE OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO EQUINIX, INC., QUALIFIES AS AN EXEMPT TRANSACTION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND THE RULES AND REGULATIONS PROMULGATED THEREUNDER.”

“THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED HEREBY MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED (AS SUCH TERM IS DEFINED IN THAT SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF OCTOBER 2, 2002 (THE “PURCHASE AGREEMENT”), BY AND AMONG EQUINIX, INC., A DELAWARE

CORPORATION (“PARENT”), THE GUARANTORS THERETO, AND THE PURCHASERS NAMED IN SCHEDULE 1 AND SCHEDULE 2 THERETO)) DURING THE PERIOD BEGINNING ON THE CLOSING DATE AND CONTINUING TO THE DATE THAT IS 180 DAYS FOLLOWING THE CLOSING DATE (AS SUCH TERM IS DEFINED IN THE AGREEMENT), EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER THE PURCHASE AGREEMENT. A COPY OF THE AGREEMENT HAS BEEN FILED WITH THE SECRETARY OF PARENT AND IS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST.”

Parent shall remove the securities legend from the Notes and the certificates evidencing such shares of Common Stock and Conversion Preferred Stock as promptly as practicable following the registration of such securities under the Securities Act or such earlier time as such securities are no longer subject to restriction on transfer under the Securities Act. The Transfer Restriction Period legend shall be removed at the request of a Holder following the lapse of such restriction

(e) In addition, the shares of Conversion Preferred Stock or Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the A-1 Notes shall bear the legend described in Section 1B.04(b) of the Combination Agreement and Section 6.2 of the Governance Agreement.

(f) Notwithstanding the restrictions and requirements set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, Holders shall have the right to Transfer all or a portion of the Securities owned by such Holder, so long as:

(i) The Holder shall give prompt notice of such Transfer to Parent and shall provide Parent, at least fifteen days before such Transfer, an executed copy of the agreement pursuant to which such Transfer was executed and a written opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to Parent indicating such Transfer will be exempt from registration under the Securities Act;

(ii) The transferee makes representations and warranties to Parent substantially identical to those set forth in Section 4 of this Agreement; and

(iii) The transferee agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement and shall be treated as a “Holder” for all purposes hereof.

(a) The Notes shall constitute senior indebtedness of Parent, secured by Liens junior to the Liens securing Parent’s obligations under the Credit Agreement. The A-1 Notes and the A-2 Notes, if any, shall be of equal rank and be treated pari passu in all respects except for the security for such Notes.

(b) Section 9.10(a) notwithstanding, the A-1 Notes shall be secured by (i) First Priority security interests in all of the A-1 Assets and all after acquired property of the Asian Subsidiaries and (ii) Second Priority security interests in all of the assets of Parent and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries (except for the Asian Subsidiaries).

(c) Section 9.10(a) notwithstanding, the A-2 Notes, if any, shall be secured by Second Priority security interests in all of the assets of Parent and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries (except for the Asian Subsidiaries) that shall be of pari passu priority with the Liens described in Section 9.10(b)(ii).

(d) Except as provided in Section 8(a)(xv), Parent shall not incur, permit or suffer to exist any Lien on the Asian Assets.

10.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated and the transactions contemplated hereby may be abandoned at any time prior to the Closing:

(b) by Parent or the Requisite Holders, in the event that a Governmental Entity shall have issued an order, decree or ruling or taken any other action (which order, decree or ruling the Parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to lift), which permanently restrains, enjoins or otherwise prohibits the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and which is not subject to appeal; or

10.2 Effect of Termination. If this Agreement is terminated or abandoned pursuant to Section 10.1, written notice thereof shall forthwith be given to each of the Parties and this Agreement shall terminate and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be abandoned, without further action by Parent or the Purchasers. If this Agreement is terminated as provided herein, no Party shall have any liability or further obligation to any other Party; provided, however, that no termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10 shall relieve any Party of liability for a grossly negligent or willful and, in either case, material breach of any provision of this Agreement occurring before such termination.

11.1 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Parent Disclosure Letter, the Credit Agreement, the other Financing Documents and the Combination Agreement (including the exhibits and schedules hereto and thereto) constitute the entire agreement and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements, negotiations, arrangements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

(a) Parent and the Existing Guarantor agree, jointly and severally, upon consummation of the transactions hereby contemplated, to pay the reasonable legal fees of

the Purchasers’ special counsel incurred in connection with the negotiation, preparation and execution of this Agreement, the other Financing Documents, and the respective Offered Securities being acquired by Purchaser, but in no event more than $125,000 for counsel to the A-2 Purchasers and $75,000 for counsel to the A-1 Purchaser.

(b) Following the Closing, Parent and each Guarantor, jointly and severally, agree to pay, and defend and save Purchasers harmless against liability for the payment of, all reasonable actual out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys fees), in each case upon the presentation of reasonably detailed statements, incurred with respect to the enforcement, attempted enforcement, or workout of any provision of this Agreement, the Offered Securities, or any of the other Financing Documents, or any amendments or waivers requested by Parent or any Guarantor (whether the same become effective) under or in respect of any such agreement or instrument, and all expenses incurred in connection with the preparation of such agreements and instruments and all transfer taxes which may be payable in respect of the execution and delivery of such agreements or instruments, or the issuance, delivery, or purchase by Purchaser of any Offered Securities, and the reasonable fees and expenses of special counsel to Purchasers retained in connection with such agreements and instruments, and the transactions hereby and thereby contemplated, including the enforcement of any provision hereof or thereof, and any such amendments or waivers and the costs and expenses of Purchasers incurred in connection with any aspect of any bankruptcy case of Parent, a Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries, whether voluntary or involuntary, and whether seeking reorganization or liquidation.

(c) Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, any and all payments by Parent under this Agreement or under the Notes shall be made net of any and all present or future taxes, levies, deductions, or withholdings, additions to tax, interest, penalties and all other liabilities with respect thereto, excluding net income, franchise or similar taxes imposed or levied on the Holder as a result of a present or former connection between the Holder and the jurisdiction of the governmental authority imposing such tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than any such connection arising solely from such Holder having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement) (all such taxes, levies, deductions or withholding, etc. other than excluded taxes referred to as “Taxes”). If any Taxes are required to be withheld or deducted upon conversion of the Notes or, as a result of a change in Law occurring after the date of this Agreement, upon the issuance of any PIK Notes, the immediately preceding sentence shall be construed to mean that Parent shall issue and transfer the same number of shares of Conversion Preferred Stock or Common Stock or PIK Notes to each Holder as if no such withholding or deduction were required, but subject to the prior receipt from each Holder of an amount in cash sufficient to allow Parent to satisfy its tax withholding or other obligations with respect thereto, which amount Parent shall pay over to the relevant tax authority or other authority on a timely basis in accordance with applicable laws. Each Holder shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify Parent for the full amount of any withholding taxes imposed on any payments to such Holder made hereunder or under the Notes (including issuance of Conversion Preferred Stock or Common Stock upon conversion of the Notes) to the extent paid by Parent and not reimbursed by such Holder and any penalties and interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto (but only to the extent such penalties, interest and expenses were incurred due to such Holder’s failure to provide the relevant tax amount in a timely manner).

(d) Parent and each Guarantor further agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify, defend, and save harmless each Purchaser and each Holder and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, losses, liabilities, and damages, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys fees and disbursements) in connection therewith (the “Indemnified Liabilities”) incurred by any Purchaser, Holder or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, or agents as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to any of the transactions contemplated hereby, other than with respect to the Combination Agreement, except for any Indemnified Liabilities arising directly and exclusively on account of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Purchaser, Holder or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, or agents; provided, however, that, if and to the extent such agreement to indemnify may be unenforceable for any reason, Parent and each Guarantor shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities that shall be permissible under applicable law. In connection with any matter as to which the Purchaser, any Holder or the other above-specified indemnified parties are entitled to be indemnified hereunder, the Purchaser or the Holder shall endeavor to give written notice thereof in reasonable detail to Parent as soon as practicable, provided that any failure to give such notice shall not vitiate or void the indemnities provided for herein except to the extent such failure has prejudiced Parent’s ability to defend against any claim causing Purchaser or Holder to seek indemnity under this Section 11. The obligations of Parent and each Guarantor under this Section 11.2(d) shall survive the transfer of any Offered Securities and payment of any Note.

(e) Section 11.2(d) notwithstanding, with respect to Environmental Claims, Parent and each Guarantor, jointly and severally, agree to defend and indemnify Purchaser and each of its directors, officers, employees, agents, and affiliates (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and agrees to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys fees, charges, disbursements, consultant’s fees, investigation and laboratory fees, response costs, court costs and litigation expenses) of whatever kind or nature which are asserted against them in their capacities as secured or unsecured creditors of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries arising out of, or in any way relating to, the violation of, noncompliance with or liability under any Environmental Laws applicable to the operations of Parent, any Guarantor, any of their Subsidiaries or to the their past or presently owned or operated properties, or any orders, requirements, or demands of Governmental Authorities related thereto which are asserted against them in their capacities as secured or unsecured creditors of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, except to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from (i) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnitee seeking indemnification therefor, or (ii) the actions or omissions of any Indemnitee at any time after such Indemnitee has assumed operation of or taken title to any of Parent’s or any Guarantor’s formerly or then currently owned or operated properties. This indemnity shall continue in full force and effect regardless of the termination of this Agreement and the other Financing Documents. The obligations of Parent and each Guarantor under this Section 11.2(e) shall survive the transfer of any Offered Securities and payment of any Note.

11.3 Amendment and Waiver. Subject to the last sentence of this Section 11.3, any term of this Agreement or the Notes may be amended and the observance of the term of this

Agreement or of the Notes may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) only with the consent of Parent and Requisite Holders provided that, without the prior written consent of the Holder of each note then outstanding, no such amendment shall (a) change the maturity or the principal of, waive Parent’s obligation to make a Change in Control Offer for, or reduce the rate or change the time of payment of interest on, or change the amount or time of any payment or prepayment of any principal of, such Note; (b) reduce the percentages referred to in the preceding sentence which are required to consent to any amendment or waiver; or (c) change the percentage of the principal amount of the Notes the holders of which may declare the Notes to be due and payable as provided in Section 8. No condition in Section 7.1 to a Purchaser’s obligation to perform its obligations at Closing may be waived or modified without the prior written consent of such Purchaser. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 11.3 shall be binding upon Parent, each Guarantor, each Purchaser and each Holder of any Note then outstanding and each future Holder of any Note. Parent shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries or affiliates to, directly or indirectly, pay or otherwise provide consideration to any Holder of any Note in connection with obtaining the consent of such Holder to any amendment, waiver, supplement or modification of or under this Agreement or the Notes unless like consideration is provided to all Holders of Notes pro rata in proportion to the respective principal amounts held by such Holders whether or not they give such consent.

11.4 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or made in writing by Parent, any Guarantor or any Purchaser shall survive the Closing and the purchase and sale of the Offered Securities, the transfer by any Purchaser of any Offered Securities or portion thereof or interest therein and the payment of any Note, and may be relied upon by Purchaser or any transferee of an Offered Security or Parent, as applicable, regardless of any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of a Purchaser or any transferee of an Offered Security or Parent, as applicable; provided, however, that any transferee of an Offered Security shall be bound by all waivers or other actions taken by its transferor prior to the date of such transfer.

(a) Parent and each Guarantor acknowledge that the representative on Parent board of directors (elected pursuant to the Governance Agreement) of any Holder may deliver copies of any financial statements and other documents delivered to such Person, and disclose any other information disclosed to such Person (other than privileged documents or information that are expressly identified as such), by or on behalf of Parent or any Guarantor to (i) such Holder’s directors, officers, members, partners, employees, agents, and professional consultants, (ii) any other Holder of any Offered Securities, (iii), subject to the prior written approval of Parent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), any Person to which such Holder offers to sell such Offered Securities or any part thereof, so long as such potential purchaser agrees, in writing, to preserve the confidentiality of such information (except that such potential purchaser may disclose such information in accordance with this Section 11.5); provided, however, that such disclosure shall not be made to any potential purchaser which is known to be a direct competitor, or an affiliate of a direct competitor, of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries without the prior written consent of Parent, (iv) any federal or state regulatory authority having jurisdiction over such Holder, (v) the National Association of

Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization, or (vi) any other Person to which such delivery or disclosure may be necessary or advisable to avoid material prejudice, (x) in compliance with any law, rule, regulation, or order applicable to such Holder, (y) in response to any subpoena or other legal process, or (z) in connection with any litigation to which such Holder is a party. Nothing is this Section 11.5 shall be construed to create or give rise to any fiduciary duty on the part of any Purchaser or Holder to Parent or any Subsidiary.

(b) Each Purchaser (which term shall, for the purpose of this Section 11.5(b), include each Holder) agrees to keep confidential any information delivered by Parent hereunder and to use such information solely for the purpose of monitoring its investment in Parent and not otherwise for its benefit or for the benefit of any third party; provided, however, that subject to the provisos contained in this Section 11.5, nothing herein shall prevent any Purchaser from disclosing such information: (i) to any Purchaser, (ii) to any affiliate of, or investor in, any Purchaser or, any actual or potential purchaser, participant, assignee, or transferee of any Purchaser’s rights under any Note that agrees to be bound by this Section 11.5, (iii) upon order of any court or administrative agency, (iv) upon the request or demand of any regulatory agency or authority having jurisdiction over such party, (v) which has been publicly disclosed, (vi) which has been obtained from any Person that is not a Party or an affiliate of any such party, unless such Purchaser knows that such information is required by such Person to be kept confidential, (vii) in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder, (viii) to the independent and certified public accountants for any Purchaser, (ix) as otherwise expressly contemplated by this Agreement, (x) to counsel for and other advisors, accountants, and auditors to any Purchaser, or (xi) as may be required by statute, decision, or judicial or administrative order, rule, or regulation. Each Purchaser hereby acknowledges that it is aware, and that it shall ensure that each of its representatives who receives confidential information is aware that the United States securities laws prohibit any Person who has received from an issuer material, non-public information from purchasing or selling securities of such issuer or from communicating such information to any other Person under circumstances in which it is reasonably foreseeable that such Person is likely to purchase or sell such securities.

11.6 Satisfaction of Closing Conditions. Parent, each Existing Guarantor and each Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to satisfy, or cause to be satisfied, the conditions to its and each Party’s obligations to consummate the transaction contemplated hereby which are set forth in Section 7.

11.7 Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given if delivered personally, telecopied (which is confirmed) or sent by an internationally recognized overnight courier service, such as Federal Express, to the Parties at the following addresses (or at such other address for a Party as shall be specified by like notice):

if to any Purchaser, to the address specified on such Purchaser’s signature page to this Agreement:

with, in the case of the A-1 Purchaser, a copy (which shall not constitute notice) to:

11.8 Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings in this Agreement are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect or be used to construe the meaning of this Agreement.

11.9 Satisfaction Requirement. If any agreement, certificate, or other writing, or any action taken or to be taken, is by the terms of this Agreement required to be satisfactory to any Party, the determination of such satisfaction shall be made by such Party in its sole and exclusive judgment exercised in good faith.

11.10 Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is held to be invalid, void or unenforceable shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining

terms and provisions of this Agreement. If any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid, void or unenforceable, the parties agree that an arbitrator shall have the power to and shall, subject to such arbitrator’s discretion, reduce the scope, duration, area or applicability of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid, void or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision.

11.11 Governing Law. This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the Parties under this Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York (including Sections 5-1401 and 5-1402 of the General Obligations Law of the State of New York).

(a) All disputes, controversies or claims (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of, relating to or otherwise by virtue of, this Agreement, breach of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be finally settled under the Rules of Arbitration (except as set forth below) of the London Court of International Arbitration (as amended from time to time, the “LCIA Rules”).

(c) The arbitration shall be held in before a single arbitrator.

(d) The arbitrator shall have practiced the field of law that is principally the subject of such dispute, controversy or claim in the State of New York for at least ten years.

Testimony of witnesses may be challenged to the extent, and under the conditions, then in effect under the Federal Rules of Evidence of the United States as interpreted and construed by the Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit and the United States District Court of and for the Southern District of New York.

(g) All deposits required under the LCIA Rules shall be paid equally by all parties to the arbitration. Each party shall to the arbitration shall pay its own costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, attorney’s fees) in connection with the arbitration.

(h) The award rendered by the arbitrator shall be executory, final and binding on the parties. The award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered into any court having jurisdiction (including, the courts of the State of New York), or application may be made to such court for judicial acceptance of the award and an order of enforcement, as the case may be. Such court proceeding shall disclose only the minimum amount of information concerning the arbitration as is required to obtain such acceptance or order.

(i) Except as required by law, no Party nor the arbitrator may disclose the existence, content or results of an arbitration brought pursuant to this Agreement.

11.13 Waiver of Jury Trial.

THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL-ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT AND THAT RELATE TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS. EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO ENTER INTO A BUSINESS RELATION SHIP, THAT EACH HAS ALREADY RELIED ON THIS WAIVER IN ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, AND THAT EACH SHALL CONTINUE TO RELY ON THIS WAIVER IN ITS RELATED FUTURE DEALINGS. EACH PARTY HERETO FURTHER WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL AND THAT IT KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL. THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE, MEANING THAT IT MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN

WRITING (OTHER THAN BY A MUTUAL WRITTEN WAIVER SPECIFICALLY REFERRING TO THIS SECTION 11.12 AND EXECUTED BY EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO), AND THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS HERETO OR ANY OF THE OTHER FINANCING DOCUMENTS OR TO ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS OR AGREEMENTS RELATING TO THE LOANS MADE HEREUNDER. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.

11.14 No Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Parties and their respective successors and assigns, in particular, shall inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, any transferee of any Offered Security. The rights and obligations of Parent and the Guarantors under this Agreement and the Offered Securities may not be assigned (by operation of law or otherwise) or delegated without the consent of Requisite Holders.

11.15 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts (whether delivered by facsimile or otherwise), each of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each Party and delivered to the other Parties.

11.16 Maximum Interest Rate. No provisions of this Agreement or any Note shall require the payment or the collection of interest in excess of the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. If any excess of interest in such respect is hereby provided for, or shall be adjudicated to be so provided, in this Agreement or any Note or otherwise in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, the provisions of this Section shall govern and prevail and Parent shall not be obligated to pay the excess amount of such interest or any other excess sum paid for the use, forbearance, or detention of sums loaned pursuant hereto. In the event any Holder ever receives, collects, or applies as interest any such sum, such amount which would be in excess of the maximum amount permitted by applicable law shall be applied as a payment and reduction of the principal amount of Notes has been paid in full, any remaining excess shall forthwith be paid to Parent. In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable exceeds the maximum rate, Parent and the Holders shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (a) characterize any non-principal payment as an expense, fee, or premium rather than as interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of the indebtedness evidenced by the Notes so that interest for the entire term does not exceed the maximum rate.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have caused this Agreement to be duly executed and delivered by their respective duly authorized officers as of the date first written above.
