The information set forth above in Item 2.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K regarding the DIP Term Sheet (as defined below) is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant

Debtor-in-Possession Financing

As previously disclosed, on December 2, 2024, Independent Contract Drilling, Inc. (the “Company” or “ICD”) and Sidewinder Drilling LLC (together with ICD, the “Debtors”) filed a petition under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division (the “Bankruptcy Court”, and the chapter 11 process filed at the Bankruptcy Court, the “Chapter 11 Cases”). Concurrently, the Debtors filed the Joint Prepackaged Plan of Reorganization Pursuant to Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (as amended, modified, or supplemented from time to time, the “Plan”). ICD will continue to operate its business as a debtor-in-possession under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and the orders of the Bankruptcy Court.

On December 4, 2024, the Bankruptcy Court approved the proposed senior secured superiority debtor-in-possession term loan facility (the “DIP Facility”) pursuant to a Senior Secured Superpriority Debtor-in-Possession Credit Facility Term Sheet (the “DIP Term Sheet”), and the Debtors entered into the DIP Term Sheet with certain prepetition holders of the Convertible Notes (collectively, the “DIP Lenders”). Pursuant to the DIP Term Sheet, the DIP Lenders will provide an aggregate principal amount not to exceed at any time outstanding aggregate principal of $32,500,000 of senior secured superpriority debtor-in-possession term loans (the “DIP Commitments”), subject to the terms and conditions of the DIP Facility pursuant to the DIP Term Sheet, including $27,500,000 of Interim DIP Loans (as defined in the DIP Term Sheet). As a result of the Bankruptcy Court’s approval, the applicable DIP Commitments are available to ICD to draw upon. ICD’s uses for DIP proceeds will be used strictly in accordance with an Approved Budget ((as defined in the DIP Term Sheet) subject to Permitted Variances (as defined in the DIP Term Sheet)) for (i) working capital and general corporate purposes of the Debtors, (ii) for bankruptcy-related costs and expenses, (iii) for costs and expenses related to the DIP Facility, and (iv) to pay down borrowings under the Revolving ABL Credit Agreement.

ICD’s obligations under the proposed DIP Facility are guaranteed by ICD’s subsidiary, Sidewinder Drilling LLC. In addition, the claims of the DIP Lenders are (i) entitled to superpriority administrative expense claim status, subject to certain customary exclusions in the DIP Term Sheet and (ii) secured by (A) a perfected first-priority lien, (B) a perfected junior lien and (C) a perfected first-priority priming lien, in each case, on the DIP Collateral (as defined in the DIP Term Sheet), subject to certain Prepetition Permitted Liens (as defined in the DIP Term Sheet) and a exclusions and exceptions carve out.

Upon an Alternative Restructuring Transaction (as defined in the DIP Term Sheet), ICD shall pay the outstanding balance of the DIP Loans (as defined in the DIP Term Sheet) from the proceeds of such Alternative Restructuring Transaction. The DIP Facility bears an interest rate equal to SOFR for a one-month interest period plus 4.00%, payable monthly on the first business day of each month in arrears.

The foregoing summary of the DIP Term Sheet is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the DIP Term Sheet, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated by reference herein.

Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing

Notice of Failure to Meet Continued Listing Rule

The OTCQX Best Market (“OTCQX”) requires under its eligibility criteria that a company shall not be subject to any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings. The Company was delisted from OTCQX on December 3, 2024 based on the Company filing the Chapter 11 Cases. As a result of the delisting, the Company commenced trading on the OTC Pink Market on December 4, 2024. The Company can provide no assurance that its common stock will continue to trade on this market, whether broker-dealers will continue to provide public quotes of the common stock on this market, or

whether the trading volume of the common stock will be sufficient to provide for an efficient trading market. The transition to OTC Pink Market will not affect the Company’s business operations.

13 Facility and the authorized use of Cash Collateral upon the terms set forth herein, the Debtors and their estates will be immediately and irreparably harmed. (iii) Prepetition Revolving ABL Secured Parties Consent to DIP Facility. In consideration for the protections afford to the Prepetition Revolving ABL Secured Parties under this Interim DIP Order, the Prepetition Revolving ABL Agent (on behalf of the other Prepetition Revolving ABL Secured Parties) has consented to (a) the Prepetition ABL Paydown, (b) the Debtors entry into the DIP Facility, and (c) all rights and remedies of the DIP Lenders under the DIP Documents, including the enforcement and other exercise of remedies, subject to the terms and conditions contained herein. (iv) No Credit Available on More Favorable Terms. The Debtors are unable to obtain financing on more favorable terms from sources other than the DIP Lenders under the DIP Documents and are unable to obtain adequate unsecured credit allowable under section 503(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code as an administrative expense. The Debtors are also unable to obtain secured credit allowable under section 364(c)(1), 364(c)(2) or 364(c)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code without granting to the DIP Lenders the DIP Liens and the DIP Superpriority Claims (as defined herein) and incurring the Adequate Protection Obligations (as defined herein), in each case subject to the Carve-Out to the extent set forth herein, under the terms and conditions set forth in this Interim DIP Order and in the DIP Documents. (v) Use of Proceeds of DIP Facility and Cash Collateral. The Debtors continue to collect cash, rents, income, offspring, products, proceeds, and profits generated from the Prepetition Collateral and acquire equipment, inventory and other personal property, all of which constitutes Prepetition Collateral under the Prepetition Debt Documents that is subject to the Prepetition Secured Parties’ security interests as set forth in the Prepetition Debt Documents, as

GRAPHIC

14 applicable. The Debtors desire to use in their business operations a portion of the cash, rents, income, offspring, products, proceeds and profits described in the preceding paragraph that constitute Cash Collateral of the Prepetition Secured Parties under section 363(a) of the Bankruptcy Code. Certain prepetition rents, income, offspring, products, proceeds, and profits, in existence as of the Petition Date or hereafter created or arising, including balances of funds in the Debtors’ prepetition and postpetition operating bank accounts, also constitute Cash Collateral. As a condition to providing the DIP Facility (including Cash Collateral), the DIP Lenders require, and the Debtors have agreed, that all proceeds of the DIP Loans and any Cash Collateral shall be used and/or applied solely for the purposes expressly permitted in, and in a manner consistent with, the Approved Budget (subject to Permitted Variances) including (i) to pay the costs of administration of the Chapter 11 Cases, (ii) for general corporate and working capital purposes, (iii) to pay professional fees and expenses in accordance with this Interim DIP Order, and (iv) to pay fees, expenses, interest, and other amounts payable under the DIP Facility, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of this Interim DIP Order and the DIP Documents. I. Adequate Protection. The Prepetition Secured Parties are entitled to the Adequate Protection (as defined herein) provided in this Interim DIP Order as and to the extent set forth herein pursuant to sections 361, 362, 363 and 364 of the Bankruptcy Code. Based on the DIP Motion, the First Day Declaration, the Denham Declaration and the record presented to the Court at the Interim Hearing, the terms of the DIP Facility, the terms of the adequate protection granted to the Prepetition Secured Parties as provided in paragraph 15 of this Interim DIP Order (the “Adequate Protection”), and the terms on which the Debtors may continue to use the Prepetition Collateral (including Cash Collateral) pursuant to this Interim DIP Order and the DIP Documents are fair and reasonable, reflect the DIP Loan Parties’ exercise of prudent business

GRAPHIC

15 judgment consistent with their fiduciary duties, constitute reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration, and, to the extent their consent is required, the requisite Prepetition Secured Parties have consented or are deemed hereby to have consented to the use of the Prepetition Collateral (including the Cash Collateral) on the terms set forth in this Interim DIP Order and the priming of the Prepetition Notes Liens by the DIP Liens pursuant to the terms set forth in this Interim DIP Order and the DIP Documents; provided that nothing in this Interim DIP Order or the DIP Documents shall (x) be construed as the affirmative consent by any of the Prepetition Secured Parties for the use of Cash Collateral other than on the terms set forth in this Interim DIP Order and in the context of the DIP Facility authorized by this Interim DIP Order to the extent such consent has been or is deemed to have been given, (y) be construed as a consent by any party to the terms of any other financing or any other lien encumbering the Prepetition Collateral (whether senior or junior) other than as contemplated by the DIP Facility authorized by this Interim DIP Order, or (z) prejudice, limit or otherwise impair the rights of any of the Prepetition Secured Parties to seek new, different or additional adequate protection or assert any rights of any of the Prepetition Secured Parties, and the rights of any other party in interest, including the DIP Loan Parties, to object to such relief are hereby preserved. J. Approved Budget and Variance. The Debtors have prepared and delivered to the advisors to the DIP Lenders an initial budget (the “Initial DIP Budget”), attached hereto as Schedule 1. The Initial DIP Budget reflects, among other things, the Prepetition ABL Paydown, the Debtors’ anticipated operating receipts, operating disbursements, non-operating disbursements, net operating cash flow and liquidity for each calendar week covered thereby, in form and substance acceptable to the DIP Lenders. The Initial DIP Budget may be modified, amended, extended, and updated from time to time in accordance with the DIP Documents, and such

GRAPHIC

16 modified, amended, extended and/or updated budget, once approved by the DIP Lenders in accordance with the DIP Documents, shall modify, replace, supplement or supersede, as applicable, the Initial DIP Budget for the periods covered thereby (the Initial DIP Budget and each subsequent approved budget shall constitute, without duplication, an “Approved Budget”). The Debtors believe that the Initial DIP Budget is reasonable under the circumstances. The DIP Lenders are relying, in part, upon the DIP Loan Parties’ agreement to comply with the Approved Budget (subject to Permitted Variances), this Interim DIP Order and the DIP Documents in determining to enter into the postpetition financing arrangements provided for in this Interim DIP Order. K. Good Faith. The DIP Financing, the Adequate Protection and the use of the Prepetition Collateral (including Cash Collateral) have been negotiated in good faith and at arm’s length among the DIP Loan Parties, the DIP Lenders, and the Prepetition Secured Parties, and all of the DIP Loan Parties’ obligations and indebtedness arising under, in respect of, or in connection with, the DIP Financing and the DIP Documents, including, without limitation, all loans made to and guarantees issued by the DIP Lenders pursuant to the DIP Documents and any other DIP Obligations shall be deemed to have been extended by the DIP Lenders and their respective affiliates in good faith, as that term is used in section 364(e) of the Bankruptcy Code and in express reliance upon the protections offered by section 364(e) of the Bankruptcy Code, and the DIP Lenders (and the successors and assigns thereof) shall be entitled to the full protection of section 364(e) of the Bankruptcy Code in the event that this Interim DIP Order or any provision hereof is vacated, reversed or modified, on appeal or otherwise. The Prepetition Secured Parties have acted in good faith regarding the DIP Financing and the Debtors’ continued use of the Prepetition Collateral (including Cash Collateral) to fund the administration of the Debtors’ estates and continued operation of their businesses (including the incurrence and payment of and performance

GRAPHIC

17 under the Adequate Protection Obligations and the granting of the Adequate Protection Liens (as defined herein)), in accordance with the terms hereof, and the Prepetition Secured Parties (and the successors and assigns thereof) shall be entitled to the full protection of sections 363(m) and 364(e) of the Bankruptcy Code in the event that this Interim DIP Order or any provision hereof is vacated, reversed or modified, on appeal or otherwise. L. Proper Exercise of Business Judgment. Based on the DIP Motion, the record presented to the Court at the Interim Hearing and in the Chapter 11 Cases, the terms of the DIP Facility and the DIP Documents, and the terms upon which the Debtors may use Cash Collateral pursuant to the terms of this Interim DIP Order and the DIP Documents (i) were negotiated in good faith and at arm’s length among the DIP Loan Parties and the DIP Lenders, (ii) are fair, reasonable, and the best available to the Debtors under the circumstances, (iii) reflect the Debtors’ exercise of prudent business judgment consistent with their fiduciary duties, and (iv) are supported by reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration. The Prepetition ABL Paydown reflects the DIP Loan Parties’ exercise of prudent business judgment consistent with fiduciary duties. The DIP Facility and the Prepetition ABL Paydown are necessary steps to implementation of the consensually supported and comprehensive restructuring of the Debtors that is embodied in the Debtors’ Joint Prepackaged Plan of Reorganization Pursuant to Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (as may be modified, amended, or supplemented (the “Plan”). The DIP Lenders and their affiliates include the Prepetition Noteholders that constitute the sole impaired third-party creditor class under the Plan and, as described in the First Day Declaration, the Prepetition Noteholders have voted overwhelmingly to accept the Plan. All other classes of claims (other than intercompany claims to the extent reinstated under the terms of the Plan) are unimpaired by the Plan. As such, the Prepetition ABL Paydown will benefit the Debtors and their estates because it

GRAPHIC

18 will facilitate the value maximizing restructuring transactions pursuant to the Plan that render all non-intercompany claims unimpaired, other than the claims of the Prepetition Noteholders, which class of claims has already voted to accept the Plan and which creditors are the parties (or affiliates of the parties) that are providing the DIP Facility, which is being used (in part) for the Prepetition ABL Paydown. M. Section 506(c) and Marshaling Waivers. Each of the Prepetition Secured Parties shall be entitled to all of the rights and benefits of section 552(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, and the “equities of the case” exception under section 552(b) of the Bankruptcy Code shall not apply to the Prepetition Secured Parties with respect to proceeds, product, offspring, or profits with respect to any of the Prepetition Collateral; provided that the foregoing shall be without prejudice to the terms of the Final DIP Order with respect to the period from and after the entry of the Final DIP Order. As a material inducement to the DIP Lenders’ agreement to provide the DIP Facility, and in consideration of (i) the DIP Lenders’ agreement to subordinate its DIP Liens to the Carve-Out, (ii) the DIP Lenders’ agreement to provide funding through the DIP Facility, which the Debtors will use to pay the expenses of the administration of the Chapter 11 Cases, subject to the Approved Budget (subject to Permitted Variances), and (iii) the prepetition Secured Parties consent to the use of the Prepetition Collateral (including Cash Collateral), and upon entry of a Final DIP Order, and in accordance with the terms of the DIP Orders and the DIP Documents, (a) the Debtors waive their right to surcharge any costs or expenses incurred in connection with the preservation, protection or enhancement of, or realization by the DIP Lenders or the DIP Collateral, or the Prepetition Secured Parties or the Prepetition Collateral, whether pursuant to section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, and (b) the DIP Lenders Prepetition Secured Parties shall not be

GRAPHIC

19 subject to the equitable doctrine of “marshaling” or any similar doctrine with respect to the DIP Collateral or the Prepetition Collateral. N. Immediate Entry. Sufficient cause exists for immediate entry of this Interim DIP Order pursuant to Bankruptcy Rules 4001(b)(2) and (c)(2) and Local Rule 4001-1(b). Absent granting the relief set forth in this Interim DIP Order, the Debtors’ estates will be immediately and irreparably harmed. Consummation of the DIP Financing and the permitted use of Prepetition Collateral (including Cash Collateral), in accordance with this Interim DIP Order and the DIP Documents, are therefore in the best interests of the Debtors’ estates and consistent with the Debtors’ exercise of their fiduciary duties. The DIP Motion and this Interim DIP Order comply with the requirements of Local Rule 4001-1(b). O. Prepetition Permitted Liens; Continuation of Prepetition Liens. Nothing herein shall constitute a finding or ruling by this Court that any alleged Prepetition Permitted Lien is valid, senior, enforceable, prior, perfected, or non-avoidable. Moreover, nothing herein shall prejudice the rights of any party-in-interest, including, but not limited to, the DIP Loan Parties, the DIP Lenders, or the Prepetition Secured Parties, to challenge the validity, priority, enforceability, seniority, avoidability, perfection, or extent of any alleged Prepetition Permitted Lien. The right of a seller of goods to reclaim goods under section 546(c) of the Bankruptcy Code is not a Prior Lien, as used herein, and is expressly subject to the DIP Liens and the Prepetition Liens. The Prepetition Liens and the DIP Liens are continuing liens and the Prepetition Collateral and the DIP Collateral, as applicable, are and will continue to be encumbered by such liens. Based upon the foregoing findings and conclusions, the DIP Motion and the record before the Court with respect to the DIP Motion, and after due consideration and good and sufficient cause appearing therefor,

GRAPHIC

20 IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT: 1. Motion Granted. The DIP Facility and the use of Cash Collateral is hereby authorized and approved, in each case, on an interim basis and upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Interim DIP Order, the DIP Term Sheet, and the other DIP Documents. Any objections to any of the relief set forth in this Interim DIP Order that have not been withdrawn, waived, or settled, and all reservations of rights or other statements inconsistent with this Interim DIP Order, are hereby denied and overruled.

The Debtors are hereby authorized to use the proceeds of the DIP Facility and all Cash Collateral solely in the manner and for the purposes expressly permitted in the Approved Budget (subject to Permitted Variances), the DIP Documents, and this Interim DIP Order, including, without limitation, the Prepetition ABL Paydown. (c) DIP Fees and Expenses.

(d) Indemnification. The Prepetition Secured Parties and the DIP Lenders have acted in good faith and without negligence, misconduct, or violation of public policy or law, in respect of all actions taken by them in connection with or related in any way to negotiating, implementing, documenting, or obtaining requisite approvals of the DIP Financing and the use of Cash Collateral, including in respect of the granting of the DIP Liens and the Adequate Protection Liens, any challenges or objections to the DIP Financing or the use of Cash Collateral, the DIP Documents, and all other documents related to and all transactions contemplated by the foregoing. Accordingly, without limitation to any other right to indemnification, the Prepetition Secured Parties and the DIP Lenders shall be and hereby are indemnified (as applicable) as provided in the

GRAPHIC

23 Prepetition Debt Documents and the DIP Documents, as applicable. The Debtors agree that no exception or defense in contract, law, or equity exists as of the date of this Interim DIP Order to any obligation set forth, as the case may be, in this paragraph 2(d) or otherwise in the DIP Documents, or in the Prepetition Debt Documents to indemnify and/or hold harmless any DIP Lender or any Prepetition Secured Party, as the case may be, and any such defenses are hereby waived. (e) Modification of DIP Documents. The DIP Loan Parties are hereby authorized to execute, deliver and perform under one or more amendments, waivers, consents, or other modifications to and under the DIP Documents, in each case, in accordance with the provisions of the DIP Documents governing amendments thereto, each without further application to or order of the Court; provided, however, that any amendment to the DIP Documents shall require, at a minimum, the prior written consent of the DIP Lenders. Updates, modifications, and supplements to the Approved Budget shall not require any further approval of this Court. In the event the DIP Lenders in their sole discretion and in accordance with the DIP Term Sheet, request that the Debtors execute definitive financing documentation with respect to the DIP Facility, including, without limitation, guarantees and security documents, in each case, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the DIP Lenders and the Debtors, the Debtors are authorized to execute, deliver and perform under such definitive financing documents. (f) Perfection in Cash. Subject to the Carve-Out and the WFB Cash Collateral Lien, and subject to the Remedies procedures outlined in paragraph 9(d) of this Interim DIP Order, all financial institutions with which the DIP Loan Parties maintain accounts containing any of the DIP Loan Parties’ cash or Cash Collateral are authorized and directed to comply with any request of the DIP Lenders to turn over to the DIP Lenders all cash or Cash Collateral therein without

GRAPHIC

24 offset or deduction of any kind upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default (as defined below). The DIP Lenders shall be entitled to all of the rights and benefits of all deposit account control agreements, blocked account control agreements, securities account control agreements, and similar agreements to which any of the DIP Loan Parties may be a party, without the need to enter into any such agreements. Notwithstanding (and without limiting) the foregoing, the DIP Loan Parties are authorized to enter into, and cause the financial institutions servicing or maintaining the DIP Loan Parties’ deposit accounts (or other accounts) to enter into, such deposit account control agreements and other collateral agreements with the DIP Lenders and such financial institutions as the DIP Lenders may request. 3. DIP Obligations. Upon the execution and delivery of the DIP Documents, the DIP Documents shall constitute legal, valid, binding and non-avoidable obligations of the DIP Loan Parties, enforceable against each DIP Loan Party and their estates in accordance with the terms of this Interim DIP Order, the DIP Term Sheet, and the other DIP Documents, and any successors thereto, including any trustee appointed in the Chapter 11 Cases, or in any case under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code upon the conversion of any of the Chapter 11 Cases, or in any other proceedings superseding or related to any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Successor Cases”). Upon execution and delivery of the DIP Documents, the DIP Obligations will include all loans and any other indebtedness or obligations, contingent or absolute, which may now or from time to time be owing by any of the DIP Loan Parties to any of the DIP Lenders, in such capacities, in each case, under, or secured by, the DIP Documents (including this Interim DIP Order), including all principal, interest, costs, fees, expenses, premiums, indemnities and other amounts under the DIP Documents (including this Interim DIP Order).

Prepetition ABL Paydown. Upon entry of this Interim DIP Order, the Debtors shall immediately use proceeds of the DIP Loans to indefeasibly pay in full all outstanding Prepetition Revolving ABL Loans; provided, however, for the avoidance of doubt, if the Debtors fail to consummate the Prepetition ABL Paydown, the Debtors will withdraw the DIP Motion (without prejudice to the Debtors’ rights to seek any other relief, including on an emergency basis). The Debtors and the DIP Lenders acknowledge and agree that (i) the Debtors are hereby authorized to execute, deliver, enter into and perform all of their obligations in that certain payoff letter agreement in favor of Prepetition Revolving ABL Agent and Prepetition Revolving ABL Lenders, (ii) the Prepetition ABL Loan Documents shall not terminate and shall remain in full force and effect, including, without limitation, the right of the Prepetition Revolving ABL Agent to charge when due all fees and charges that accrue in accordance with terms of the Prepetition ABL Revolving Documents, (iii) the Prepetition Revolving ABL Lenders shall have no further obligation to make any Revolving Loans (as defined in the Prepetition Revolving ABL Credit

26 Agreement), including to provide any other Letters of Credit or other financial accommodations (except to allow the Existing Letter of Credit (as defined herein) to continue in full force and effect) or have any other duties or responsibilities in connection with the Prepetition Revolving ABL Documents, except as otherwise provided by this Interim DIP Orders (provided, that the Issuing Bank and the Bank Product Provider (as each term is defined in the Prepetition Revolving ABL Credit Agreement), as applicable, shall have no obligation to extend the expiration date of any Letter of Credit or any Bank Product (as defined in the Prepetition Revolving ABL Credit Agreement), as applicable, or agree to any other amendment thereof), (iv) the Debtors have deposited with WFB cash in the amount of $276,738.87 (the “WFB Cash Collateral”) in order to cash collateralize the Debtors’ following obligations: (A) in respect of the Debtors’ existing letter of credit (the “Existing Letter of Credit”) (issued under the Prepetition Revolving ABL Credit Agreement by WFB (in such capacity, the “Prepetition Letter of Credit Issuer”)) and (B) the Debtors’ Bank Product Obligations (as defined in the Prepetition Revolving ABL Credit Agreement), including any outstanding balances under the Debtors’ commercial card program (the “Cash Management Obligations”), and hereby grant to WFB a first priority security interest in and lien on, all of the Debtors’ right, title and interest in and to the WFB Cash Collateral (such lien, the “WFB Cash Collateral Lien”) in accordance with the terms of the Cash Management Order. WFB is authorized to access and reimburse itself with the WFB Cash Collateral, without further order of the Court, in respect of the Existing Letter of Credit, to the extent drawn (in whole or in part) by the beneficiary thereof, and in respect of any fees and expenses in respect of the Existing Letter of Credit and in respect of any Bank Product Obligations that arise after the entry of this Interim Order, together with any fees, charges, costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith.

GRAPHIC

27 Parties) consents to the Revolving ABL Paydown, entry of this Interim DIP Order, the Debtors’ entry into the DIP Facility, and all rights and remedies of the DIP Lenders under the DIP Documents, including the enforcement and other exercise of remedies, subject to the terms and conditions contained herein. 5. Carve-Out. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Debtors’ obligations to the DIP Lenders and the Prepetition Secured Parties, and the liens, security interests and superpriority claims granted by this Interim DIP Order or under the Prepetition Revolving ABL Credit Agreement, Prepetition Indenture, and the DIP Documents, and the payment of all such obligations, shall be subject and subordinate in all respects to payment of the following fees and expenses: (1) the payment of unpaid fees required to be paid to the Clerk of the Court and to the U.S. Trustee pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1930(a); (2) fees and expenses up to $50,000 incurred by a trustee under section 726(b) of the Bankruptcy Code; (3) Allowed Professional Fees (as defined below) of the Estate Professionals (as defined below) prior to the delivery by the DIP Lenders of a Carve-Out Trigger Notice (defined below) (the amounts set forth in this clause (3) being the “Pre-Carve-Out Trigger Notice Cap”); and (4) the Allowed Professional Fees of Debtor Professionals in an aggregate amount not to exceed $2,000,000 incurred on or after the later of (A) the first business day following delivery by the DIP Lenders of the Carve-Out Trigger Notice or (B) determination of the Court that an Event of Default has occurred, after a hearing thereon (the amounts set forth in this clause (4) being the “Post-Carve-Out Trigger Notice Cap” and

GRAPHIC

28 together with the Pre Carve-Out Trigger Notice Cap and the amounts set forth in clauses (1) and (2), the “Carve-Out Cap”); (the foregoing clauses (1) through (4), collectively, the “Carve-Out”). (i) As used in this paragraph, persons or firms retained by (x) the Debtors pursuant to section 327, 328, or 363 of the Bankruptcy Code are referred to as “Debtor Professionals”), and (y) any Official Committee are referred to as “Committee Professionals” and, together with the Debtor Professionals, the “Estate Professionals”. (ii) The term “Allowed Professional Fees” means fees and expenses incurred prior to the applicable event set forth in this paragraph, to the extent allowed at any time, whether by interim order, procedural order, or otherwise, but subject to final allowance by the Court, without regard to whether such fees and expenses are provided for in any Approved Budget or were invoiced after the Carve-Out Trigger Notice Date. To the extent that professional fees and expenses of the Estate Professionals have been incurred by the Debtors or the Official Committee at any time before or on the first business day after delivery by the DIP Lenders of a Carve-Out Trigger Notice but have not yet been allowed by the Court, such professional fees and expenses of the Estate Professionals shall constitute Allowed Professional Fees benefiting from the Carve-Out upon their allowance by the Court, whether by interim or final compensation order, and the Carve-Out Account shall be funded to include such professional fees and expenses as set forth herein. (iii) A “Carve-Out Trigger Notice” means a written notice delivered by email (or other electronic means) by the DIP Lenders to the Debtors, lead bankruptcy counsel for the Debtors, counsel to the Prepetition Notes Trustee, counsel to the Prepetition Revolving ABL Agent, the U.S. Trustee, and counsel to any Committee stating that the Post-Carve-Out Trigger Notice Cap has been invoked, which notice may be delivered following the occurrence and during

GRAPHIC

29 the continued existence of an Event of Default (as defined herein) under the terms of this Interim DIP Order. (iv) “Carve-Out Trigger Notice Date” means the day on which a Carve-Out Trigger Notice is received by the Debtors. (v) “Carve-Out Account” means a separate segregated account not subject to the control of the Trustee or any of the DIP Lenders or Prepetition Secured Parties. (b) Within five (5) business days of the initial funding of the DIP Loans, the Debtors shall fund into a Carve-Out Account for Debtor Professionals in an amount equal to the total budgeted Debtor Professionals’ fees for the first two (2) weeks set forth in the Approved Budget. Thereafter, the Debtors may use such funds held in the Carve-Out Accounts to pay Debtor Professional fees as they become allowed and payable pursuant to interim or final orders of the Court; provided that the Debtors’ obligations to pay the Allowed Professional Fees of the Debtor Professionals shall not be limited or deemed limited to funds held in the Carve-Out Account. (c) On the Carve-Out Trigger Notice Date, the Carve-Out Trigger Notice shall constitute a demand to the Debtors to fund the Carve-Out Account in cash in an amount equal to the Carve-Out Cap, and immediately following receipt of a Carve-Out Trigger Notice, and prior to the payment of any Obligations, the Debtors shall be required to deposit into the Carve-Out Account cash in an amount equal to the difference between the applicable Carve-Out Cap (which shall be determined by the applicable Debtor Professionals in their reasonable discretion based on the amount of then-unpaid Allowed Professional Fees, and may include a reasonable estimate of the applicable Debtor Professionals’ then-incurred fees and expenses not yet allowed) and the balance held in the applicable Carve-Out Account as of the Carve-Out Trigger Notice Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the DIP Documents, following delivery of a

GRAPHIC

30 Carve-Out Trigger Notice, the DIP Lenders shall not sweep or foreclose on cash (including cash received as a result of the sale or other disposition of any assets) of the Debtors until the Carve-Out Account has been fully funded as required herein in an amount equal to all obligations benefitting from the Carve-Out. Any payment or reimbursement made to any Debtor Professional in respect of any Allowed Professional Fees prior to the delivery of the Carve Out Trigger Notice shall not reduce the Carve-Out. (d) The amounts in the Carve-Out Account shall be available only to satisfy Allowed Professional Fees and other amounts included in the Carve-Out until such amounts are paid in full. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) the failure of the Carve-Out Account to satisfy in full the amount set forth in the Carve-Out shall not affect the priority of the Carve-Out and (ii) in no way shall the Carve-Out, the Carve-Out Account, or any Approved Budget be construed as a cap or limitation on the amount of the Allowed Professional Fees due and payable by the Debtors or that may be allowed by the Bankruptcy Court at any time (whether by interim order, final order, or otherwise). All funds in the Carve-Out Account shall be used first to pay all obligations benefitting from the Pre Carve-Out Trigger Notice Cap, until paid in full, and then the obligations benefitting from the Post Carve-Out Trigger Notice Cap; provided that the amount in the Carve-Out Account shall be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis for Allowed Professional Fees that are paid after the delivery of the Carve-Out Trigger Notice, and the Carve-Out Account shall not be replenished for such amounts so paid. (e) Payments from the Carve-Out shall be subject to any terms and conditions of the engagement agreements and appurtenant orders for the employment of each Estate Professional. The Debtors shall be permitted to pay compensation and reimbursement of expenses

GRAPHIC

The Debtors shall promptly cause a copy of any Stay Relief Motion to be served on any party that has filed a request for notices with this Court.

(c) A certified copy of this Interim DIP Order may, as the DIP Lenders may determine in their discretion, be filed with or recorded in filing or recording offices in addition to or in lieu of any financing statements, trademark filings, copyright filings, mortgages, notices of lien or similar instruments, and all filing offices are hereby authorized and directed to accept such certified copy of this Interim DIP Order for filing and/or recording, as applicable.

(b) The occurrence and continuance of any Event of Default (as defined in the DIP Term Sheet) shall, after notice by the DIP Lenders in writing to the Borrower, counsel to the Borrower, the U.S. Trustee, counsel to the Prepetition Notes Trustee, counsel to Prepetition Revolving ABL Agent, and lead counsel to the Official Committee (if any) constitute an event of default under this Interim DIP Order (each, an “Event of Default”) and, upon such notice of any such Event of Default, interest, including, where applicable, default interest, shall accrue and be paid as set forth in the DIP Term Sheet.

(c) If any or all of the provisions of this Interim DIP Order are hereafter reversed, modified, vacated or stayed, such reversal, modification, vacatur or stay shall not affect: (i) the validity, priority or enforceability of any DIP Obligations, Cash Management Obligations, or Adequate Protection Obligations incurred prior to the DIP Lenders’, the Prepetition Notes Trustee’s, or the Prepetition Revolving ABL Agent’s, as applicable, actual receipt of written notice of the effective date of such reversal, modification, vacatur or stay; or (ii) the validity, priority or enforceability of the DIP Liens or the Adequate Protection Liens.

GRAPHIC

52 Adequate Protection Claims, the Adequate Protection Liens, the other Adequate Protection Obligations and all other rights and remedies of the DIP Lenders and the other Prepetition Secured Parties granted by the provisions of this Interim DIP Order and the other DIP Documents shall survive, and shall not be modified, impaired or discharged by: (i) the entry of an order converting any of the Chapter 11 Cases to a case under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code, dismissing any of the Chapter 11 Cases or terminating the joint administration of these Chapter 11 Cases or by any other act or omission; (ii) the entry of an order approving the sale of any DIP Collateral pursuant to section 363(b) of the Bankruptcy Code (except to the extent permitted by the DIP Documents); or (iii) the entry of an order confirming a chapter 11 plan in any of the Chapter 11 Cases and, pursuant to section 1141(d)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code, the DIP Loan Parties have waived any discharge as to any remaining DIP Obligations or Adequate Protection Obligations. The terms and provisions of this Interim DIP Order and the other DIP Documents shall continue in these Chapter 11 Cases (including if these Chapter 11 Cases cease to be jointly administered) and in any Successor Cases, and the DIP Liens, the DIP Superpriority Claims, the Adequate Protection Claims, the Adequate Protection Liens, the other Adequate Protection Obligations and all other rights and remedies of the DIP Lenders and the Prepetition Secured Parties granted by the provisions of this Interim DIP Order and the other DIP Documents shall continue in full force and effect until the DIP Obligations and the Adequate Protection Obligations are Paid in Full, as set forth herein and in the other DIP Documents, and the commitments under the DIP Facility have been terminated (and, in the case of rights and remedies of the Prepetition Secured Parties, shall remain in full force and effect thereafter, subject to the terms of this Interim DIP Order). 21. Payment of Fees and Expenses. The DIP Loan Parties are authorized to and shall pay the Adequate Protection Fees and Expenses. Subject to the review procedures set forth in this

GRAPHIC

53 paragraph 21, payment of all Adequate Protection Fees and Expenses shall not be subject to allowance or review by the Court or subject to the U.S. Trustee’s fee guidelines, and no attorney or advisor to the DIP Lenders shall be required to file an application seeking compensation for services or reimbursement of expenses with the Court; provided, however, that any time such professionals seek payment of fees and expenses from the Debtors from and after entry of the this Interim DIP Order, but prior to the effective date of any confirmed chapter 11 plan, each such professional shall provide summary copies of its invoices for professional fees and expenses (which shall not be required to contain time entries and which may be redacted or modified to the extent necessary to delete any information subject to the attorney-client privilege, any information constituting attorney work product, or any other confidential information, and the provision of their invoices shall not constitute any waiver of the attorney-client privilege or of any benefits of the attorney work product doctrine) to lead restructuring counsel to the Debtors, the U.S. Trustee, counsel to the DIP Lenders, and lead restructuring counsel to the Official Committee )if any) (collectively, the “Review Parties”); provided, however, that the U.S. Trustee reserves its rights to reasonably request additional detail regarding the services rendered and expenses incurred by such professionals. Any objections raised by any Review Party with respect to such invoices must be in writing and state with particularity the grounds therefor and must be submitted to the affected professional within ten (10) calendar days after delivery of such invoices to the Review Parties (such ten (10) day calendar period, the “Review Period”). If no written objection is received prior to the expiration of the Review Period from the Review Parties, the Debtors shall pay such invoices within five (5) business days following the expiration of the Review Period. If an objection to a professional’s invoice is received within the Review Period, the DIP Loan Parties shall pay within five (5) business days the undisputed amount of the invoice without the necessity of filing formal

GRAPHIC

54 fee applications, regardless of whether such amounts arose or were incurred before or after the Petition Date, and this Court shall have jurisdiction to determine the disputed portion of such invoice if the parties are unable to resolve the dispute consensually. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Debtors are authorized and directed to pay upon entry of this Interim DIP Order any DIP Fees and Expenses and Adequate Protection Fees and Expenses incurred on or prior to such date without the need for any professional to first deliver a copy of its invoice or other supporting documentation to the Review Parties (other than the Debtors). No attorney or advisor to any DIP Lender or any Prepetition Secured Party shall be required to file an application seeking compensation for services or reimbursement of expenses with the Court. Any and all fees, costs, and expenses paid prior to the Petition Date by any of the Debtors to or for the benefit of the DIP Lenders, the Prepetition Notes Trustee, or the Prepetition Revolving ABL Agent, in connection with or with respect to the DIP Facility or these Chapter 11 Cases, are hereby approved in full and shall not be subject to recharacterization, avoidance, subordination, disgorgement or any similar form of recovery by the Debtors or any other person. For the avoidance of doubt, the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of the Prepetition Revolving ABL Agent payable under the Prepetition Revolving ABL Credit Agreement shall be paid in connection with the Prepetition ABL Paydown and shall not be subject to this paragraph 21. 22. Effect of Stipulations on Third Parties. The Debtors’ stipulations, admissions, agreements and releases contained in this Interim DIP Order shall be binding upon the Debtors in all circumstances and for all purposes. The Debtors’ stipulations, admissions, agreements and releases contained in this Interim DIP Order shall be binding upon all other parties in interest, including, without limitation, any statutory or non-statutory committees appointed or formed in the Chapter 11 Cases and any other person or Entity acting or seeking to act on behalf of the

GRAPHIC

55 Debtors’ estates including any chapter 7 or chapter 11 trustee or examiner appointed or elected for any of the Debtors, in all circumstances and for all purposes unless: except as otherwise provided under any confirmation order or confirmed chapter 11 plan in these Chapter 11 Cases, (a) such committee or any other party in interest with requisite standing (subject in all respects to any agreement or applicable law that may limit or affect such Entity’s right or ability to do so) has timely filed an adversary proceeding or contested matter (subject to the limitations contained herein, including, inter alia, in this paragraph) on or before the earlier of (a) two (2) Business Days prior to any scheduled Confirmation hearing and (b) the later of (i) (A) as to the Official Committee only, sixty (60) calendar days after the formation of the Official Committee, (B) if the Chapter 11 Cases are converted to chapter 7 and a chapter 7 trustee or a chapter 11 trustee is appointed or elected prior to the end of the Challenge Period, then the Challenge Period for any such chapter 7 trustee or chapter 11 trustee shall be extended (solely as to such chapter 7 trustee and chapter 11 trustee) to the date that is the later of (I) seventy-five (75) calendar days after entry of this Interim DIP Order, and (II) thirty (30) calendar days after its appointment, and (C) as to all other parties in interest, seventy-five (75) calendar days after entry of this Interim DIP Order; and (ii) any such later date as (A) has been agreed to by (I) the DIP Lenders (in all instances), (II) the Prepetition Revolving ABL Agent with respect to the Prepetition Revolving ABL Secured Parties, the Prepetition Revolving ABL Debt or the Prepetition Revolving ABL Liens and (III) the Prepetition Notes Trustee (acting at the direction of Prepetition Noteholders) with respect to the Prepetition Secured Notes Parties, the Prepetition Indenture Debt or the Prepetition Notes Liens, or (B) has been ordered by this Court for cause upon a motion filed and served within any applicable period (the time period established by the foregoing clauses (i)-(ii), the “Challenge Period”), (x) objecting to or challenging the amount, validity, perfection, enforceability, priority or extent of the

If no such Challenge is timely and properly filed during the Challenge Period or the Court does not rule in favor of the plaintiff in any such proceeding then: (1) the Debtors’ stipulations, admissions, agreements and releases contained in this Interim DIP Order shall be binding on all parties in interest; (2) the obligations of the DIP Loan Parties under the Prepetition Debt Documents, including the Prepetition Secured Debt, shall constitute allowed claims not subject to defense avoidance, reduction, setoff, recoupment, recharacterization, subordination (whether equitable, contractual, or otherwise, except under the Prepetition Intercreditor Agreement), disallowance, impairment, claim, counterclaim, cross-claim, or any other challenge under the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable law or regulation by any person or Entity for all purposes in

GRAPHIC

57 the Chapter 11 Cases, and any subsequent chapter 7 case(s); (3) the Prepetition Liens on the Prepetition Collateral shall be deemed to have been, as of the Petition Date, legal, valid, binding and perfected security interests and liens, not subject to defense, avoidance, reduction, setoff, recoupment, recharacterization, subordination (whether equitable, contractual (other than pursuant to the Prepetition Intercreditor Agreement), or otherwise), disallowance, impairment, claim, counterclaim, cross-claim, or any other challenge under the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable law or regulation by any person or Entity, including any statutory or non-statutory committees appointed or formed in the Chapter 11 Cases or any other party in interest acting or seeking to act on behalf of the Debtors’ estates, including, without limitation, any successor thereto (including, without limitation, any chapter 7 trustee or chapter 11 trustee or examiner appointed or elected for any of the Debtors) and any defense, avoidance, reduction, setoff, recoupment, recharacterization, subordination (whether equitable, contractual, or otherwise), disallowance, impairment, claim, counterclaim, cross-claim, or any other challenge under the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable law or regulation by any statutory or non-statutory committees appointed or formed in the Chapter 11 Cases or any other party acting or seeking to act on behalf of the Debtors’ estates, including, without limitation, any successor thereto (including, without limitation, any chapter 7 trustee or chapter 11 trustee or examiner appointed or elected for any of the Debtors), whether arising under the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, against any of the Prepetition Secured Parties or their Representatives arising out of or relating to any of the Prepetition Debt Documents, the Prepetition Secured Debt, the Prepetition Liens or the Prepetition Collateral shall be deemed forever waived, released and barred. If any such Challenge is timely filed during the Challenge Period, the stipulations, admissions, agreements and releases contained in this Interim DIP Order shall nonetheless remain binding and preclusive (as provided in the second sentence of this paragraph)

GRAPHIC

58 on each other statutory or nonstatutory committee appointed or formed in the Chapter 11 Cases and on any other person or Entity, except (solely with respect to the party filing the Challenge) to the extent that such stipulations, admissions, agreements and releases were expressly and successfully challenged in such Challenge as set forth in a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing in this Interim DIP Order vests or confers on any Entity (as defined in the Bankruptcy Code), including any statutory or non-statutory committees appointed or formed in these Chapter 11 Cases, standing or authority to pursue any claim or cause of action belonging to the Debtors or their estates, including, without limitation, Challenges with respect to the Prepetition Debt Documents, the Prepetition Secured Debt or the Prepetition Liens, and any ruling on standing (including any appeals thereof) shall not stay or otherwise delay the Chapter 11 Cases or confirmation of any plan of reorganization. 23.

60 Protection Liens or the other Adequate Protection Obligations; or (e) to pay or to seek to pay any amount on account of any claims arising prior to the Petition Date unless such payments are agreed to in writing by the DIP Lenders or are expressly permitted under this Interim DIP Order or under the other DIP Documents (including the Approved Budget, subject to Permitted Variances), or unless all DIP Obligations, Prepetition Secured Debt, Adequate Protection Obligations, and claims granted to the DIP Lenders and Prepetition Secured Parties under this Interim DIP Order have been refinanced or Paid In Full (including the cash collateralization of any letters of credit). 24. Indemnification. The Prepetition Secured Parties and the DIP Lenders have acted in good faith and without negligence, misconduct, or violation of public policy or law, in respect of all actions taken by them in connection with or related in any way to negotiating, implementing, documenting, or obtaining requisite approvals of the DIP Financing and the use of Cash Collateral, including in respect of the granting of the DIP Liens and the Adequate Protection Liens, any challenges or objections to the DIP Financing or the use of Cash Collateral, the DIP Documents, and all other documents related to and all transactions contemplated by the foregoing.

The Debtors agree that no exception or defense in contract, law, or equity exists as of the date of this Interim DIP Order to any obligation set forth, as the case may be, in this paragraph 24 or otherwise in the DIP Documents, or in the Prepetition Debt Documents to indemnify and/or hold harmless any DIP Lender or any Prepetition Secured Party, as the case may be, and any such defenses are hereby waived. 25.

The DIP Documents, including the provisions of this Interim DIP Order, including all findings herein, shall be binding upon all parties in interest in these Chapter 11 Cases, including, without limitation, the DIP Lenders, the Prepetition Secured Parties, any statutory or non-statutory committees appointed or formed in these Chapter 11 Cases, the Debtors and their respective successors and assigns (including any chapter 7 or chapter 11 trustee hereinafter appointed or elected for the estate of any of the Debtors, an examiner appointed pursuant to section 1104 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any other fiduciary appointed as a legal representative of any of the Debtors or with respect to the property of the estate of any of the Debtors) and shall inure to the benefit of the DIP Lenders, the Prepetition Secured Parties and the Debtors and their respective successors and assigns; provided that the DIP Lenders and the Prepetition Secured Parties shall have no obligation to permit the use of the Prepetition Collateral (including Cash Collateral) by, or to extend any financing to, any chapter 7 trustee, chapter 11 trustee or similar responsible person appointed for the estates of the Debtors. 27. Exculpation. Nothing in this Interim DIP Order, the other DIP Documents, the Prepetition Debt Documents or any other documents related to the transactions contemplated

GRAPHIC

62 hereby shall in any way be construed or interpreted to impose or allow the imposition upon any DIP Lender or Prepetition Secured Party of any liability for any claims arising from the prepetition or postpetition activities of the Debtors in the operation of their businesses, or in connection with their restructuring efforts. The DIP Lenders and Prepetition Secured Parties shall not, in any way or manner, be liable or responsible for (a) the safekeeping of the DIP Collateral or Prepetition Collateral, (b) any loss or damage thereto occurring or arising in any manner or fashion from any cause, (c) any diminution in the value thereof or (d) any act or default of any carrier, servicer, bailee, custodian, forwarding agency or other person, and all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the DIP Collateral or Prepetition Collateral shall be borne by the Debtors. 28. Limitation of Liability. In determining to make any loan or other extension of credit under the DIP Documents, to permit the use of the DIP Collateral or Prepetition Collateral (including Cash Collateral) or in exercising any rights or remedies as and when permitted pursuant to this Interim DIP Order or the other DIP Documents or Prepetition Debt Documents, none of the DIP Lenders or Prepetition Secured Parties shall (a) have any liability to any third party or be deemed to be in “control” of the operations of the Debtors; (b) owe any fiduciary duty to the Debtors, their respective creditors, shareholders or estates; or (c) be deemed to be acting as a “Responsible Person” or “Owner” or “Operator” or “managing agent” with respect to the operation or management of any of the Debtors (as such terms or similar terms are used in the United States Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, 42 U.S.C. §§ 9601, et seq., as amended, or any other federal or state statute, including the Internal Revenue Code). Furthermore, nothing in this Interim DIP Order shall in any way be construed or interpreted to impose or allow the imposition upon any of the DIP Lenders or Prepetition Secured Parties of any

GRAPHIC

63 liability for any claims arising from the prepetition or postpetition activities of any of the Debtors and their respective affiliates (as defined in section 101(2) of the Bankruptcy Code). 29. Master Proofs of Claim. The Prepetition Secured Parties shall not be required to file proofs of claim in the Chapter 11 Cases or any Successor Case in order to assert claims on behalf of themselves or the other Prepetition Secured Parties for payment of the Prepetition Secured Debt arising under the Prepetition Debt Documents, including, without limitation, any principal, unpaid interest, fees, expenses and other amounts under the Prepetition Debt Documents or the Adequate Protection Obligations arising under this Interim DIP Order and the other DIP Documents. The statements of claim in respect of such indebtedness set forth in this Interim DIP Order is deemed sufficient to and does constitute proofs of claim in respect of such debt and such secured status. Any order entered by this Court in relation to the establishment of a bar date for any claim (including, without limitation, administrative claims) in any of the Chapter 11 Cases or any Successor Cases shall not apply to the Prepetition Secured Parties with respect to the Prepetition Secured Debt and the Adequate Protection Obligations. However, in order to facilitate the processing of claims, the Prepetition Notes Trustee (at the direction of the Prepetition Noteholders) and the Prepetition Revolving ABL Agent (at the direction of the Required Revolving ABL Lenders, to the extent the Prepetition ABL Paydown has not occurred) are each authorized, but not directed or required, to file in the Debtors’ lead chapter 11 case, Case No. 24-90612 (ARP), a single master proof of claim on behalf of the applicable Prepetition Secured Parties on account of any and all of their respective claims against any of the Debtors arising under the applicable Prepetition Debt Documents and hereunder (each, a “Master Proof of Claim”). Upon the filing of a Master Proof of Claim, it shall be deemed to have filed a proof of claim in the amount set forth therein in respect of its claims against each of the Debtors of any

GRAPHIC

64 type or nature whatsoever with respect to the applicable Prepetition Debt Documents, and the claim of each applicable Prepetition Secured Party (and each of its respective successors and assigns) specified in a Master Proof of Claim shall be treated as if it had filed a separate proof of claim in each of these Chapter 11 Cases. The Master Proofs of Claim shall not be required to identify whether any Prepetition Secured Party acquired its claim from another party or the identity of any such party or to be amended to reflect a change in the holders of the claims set forth therein or a reallocation among the holders of the claims asserted therein resulting from the transfer of all or any portion of such claims. The provisions of this paragraph 29 and each Master Proof of Claim are intended solely for the purpose of administrative convenience and shall not affect the right of each Prepetition Secured Party (or its successors in interest) to vote separately on any plan proposed in these Chapter 11 Cases (as applicable). The Master Proofs of Claim shall not be required to attach any instruments, agreements or other documents evidencing the obligations owing by each of the Debtors to the applicable Prepetition Secured Parties, which instruments, agreements or other documents will be provided upon written request to counsel to the Prepetition Notes Trustee or the Prepetition Revolving ABL Agent, as applicable. The DIP Lenders shall similarly not be required to file proofs of claim with respect to their DIP Obligations under the DIP Documents, and the evidence presented with the DIP Motion and the record established at the Interim Hearing are deemed sufficient to, and do, constitute proofs of claim with respect to their obligations, secured status, and priority. 30. Insurance. To the extent that the Prepetition Notes Trustee or the Prepetition Revolving ABL Agent is listed as loss payee under the Borrower’s or DIP Guarantor’s insurance policies, the DIP Lenders are also deemed to be the loss payee under the insurance policies (in any such case with the same priority of liens and claims thereunder relative to the priority of (x) the

GRAPHIC

65 Prepetition Liens and Adequate Protection Liens and (y) the DIP Liens, as set forth herein) and shall act in that capacity and distribute any proceeds recovered or received in respect of the insurance policies, to the indefeasible payment in full of the DIP Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been asserted) and termination of the commitments under the DIP Facility and thereafter to the payment of the applicable Prepetition Secured Debt; provided that the rights of a lessor under any non-residential real property lease to any such insurance proceeds are hereby expressly reserved pending entry of a Final DIP Order. 31. Credit Bidding. Subject to section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code and the lien priorities set forth herein, (a) the DIP Lenders, shall have the right to credit bid, in accordance with the DIP Documents, up to the full amount of the DIP Obligations in any sale of the DIP Collateral (or any portion thereof) and (b) subject to the Challenge Period, the Prepetition Notes Trustee (acting at the direction of Prepetition Noteholders)) shall have the right, consistent with the provisions of the Prepetition Notes Documents (and providing for the DIP Obligations to be Paid in Full and the termination of all commitments under the DIP Facility), to credit bid up to the full amount of the Prepetition Indenture Debt (including any Adequate Protection Obligations) in the sale of the Prepetition Collateral (or any portion thereof), in each case without the need for further Court order authorizing the same and whether any such sale is effectuated through section 363(k), 1123 or 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, by a chapter 7 trustee under section 725 of the Bankruptcy Code, or otherwise; provided that neither the DIP Obligations nor any Prepetition Indenture Debt may be credit bid in any disposition of the Prepetition Collateral unless the Prepetition ABL Paydown has occurred.

GRAPHIC

66 32. Treatment of DIP Claims. On the Maturity Date, the Borrower shall pay in cash the then unpaid and outstanding amount of the DIP Obligations pursuant to the provisions of the DIP Documents. 33. Joint and Several Liability. Nothing in this Interim DIP Order shall be construed to constitute or authorize a substantive consolidation of any of the Debtors’ estates, it being understood, however, that the Debtors shall be jointly and severally liable for all obligations (including all DIP Obligations) under this Interim DIP Order and the DIP Documents. 34. Effectiveness. Notwithstanding Bankruptcy Rule 4001(a)(3), 6004(h), 6006(d), 7062 or 9014, any Bankruptcy Local Rule or Rule 62(a) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, this Interim DIP Order shall be immediately effective and enforceable upon its entry and there shall be no stay of execution or effectiveness of this Interim DIP Order. 35. Headings. Section headings used herein are for convenience only and are not to affect the construction of or to be taken into consideration in interpreting this Interim DIP Order. When used in this Interim DIP Order, the word “including” shall not imply limitation. 36. Payments Held in Trust. Except as expressly permitted in this Interim DIP Order or the DIP Documents and except with respect to the DIP Loan Parties, in the event that any person or Entity receives any payment on account of a security interest in or lien on DIP Collateral, receives any DIP Collateral or any proceeds of DIP Collateral or receives any other payment with respect thereto from any other source, in each case prior to indefeasible Payment in Full of all DIP Obligations and termination of all commitments under the DIP Facility in accordance with the DIP Documents, such person or Entity shall be deemed to have received, and shall hold, any such payment or proceeds of DIP Collateral in trust for the benefit of the DIP Lenders and shall

GRAPHIC

67 immediately turn over the proceeds to the DIP Lenders, or as otherwise instructed by this Court, for application in accordance with this Interim DIP Order and the DIP Documents. 37. Bankruptcy Rules. The requirements of Bankruptcy Rules 4001, 6003 and 6004, in each case to the extent applicable, are satisfied by the contents of the DIP Motion. 38. No Third Party Rights.

All filing or recording officers (or any other Person with authority over any of the foregoing), wherever located and by whomever appointed, shall comply with the requirements of section 1146(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, shall forego the collection of any such tax or governmental assessment, and shall accept for filing and recordation any of the foregoing instruments or other documents without the payment of any such tax or governmental assessment. P. Director and Officer Liability Insurance The Reorganized Debtors shall obtain new director and officer liability insurance policies to cover the New Board effective as of the Effective Date. In addition, after the Effective Date, for a period of at least six (6) years, none of the Reorganized Debtors shall terminate or otherwise reduce the coverage under any “tail” D&O Liability Insurance Policies covering the Debtors’ current boards of directors in effect on or after the Petition Date, with respect to conduct occurring prior thereto, and, subject to the terms of the applicable D&O Liability Insurance Policies, all directors and officers of the Debtors who served in such capacity at any time prior to the Effective Date shall be entitled to the full benefits of any such policy for the full term of such policy, to the extent set forth therein, regardless of whether such directors and officers remain in such positions after the Effective Date. Q. Management Incentive Program On the Effective Date or as soon as practicable thereafter, the New Board shall adopt and implement the Management Incentive Plan pursuant to, and consistent with, the terms set forth in this Plan.

35 R. Employee and Retiree Benefits Unless otherwise provided herein, all employee wages, compensation, and benefit programs in place as of the Effective Date with the Debtors shall be assumed by the Reorganized Debtors and shall remain in place as of the Effective Date, and the Reorganized Debtors will continue to honor such agreements, arrangements, programs, and plans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, pursuant to section 1129(a)(13) of the Bankruptcy Code, from and after the Effective Date, all retiree benefits (as such term is defined in section 1114 of the Bankruptcy Code), if any, shall continue to be paid in accordance with applicable law. S. Preservation of Causes of Action In accordance with section 1123(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, but subject to Article IX hereof, each Reorganized Debtor, as applicable, shall retain and may enforce all rights to commence and pursue, as appropriate, any and all Causes of Action of the Debtors, whether arising before or after the Petition Date, including any actions specifically enumerated in the Retained Causes of Action Schedule, and the Reorganized Debtors’ rights to commence, prosecute, or settle such Causes of Action shall be preserved notwithstanding the occurrence of the Effective Date, other than (i) the Causes of Action released by the Debtors pursuant to the releases and exculpations contained in this Plan, including in Article IX hereof, and (ii) any preference actions under section 547(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, which shall be deemed released and waived by the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors as of the Effective Date. The Reorganized Debtors may pursue such retained Causes of Action, as appropriate, in accordance with the best interests of the Reorganized Debtors. No Entity (other than the Released Parties) may rely on the absence of a specific reference in this Plan, the Plan Supplement, or the Disclosure Statement to any Cause of Action against it as any indication that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, will not pursue any and all available Causes of Action of the Debtors against it. The Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors expressly reserve all rights to prosecute any and all Causes of Action against any Entity, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Plan, including Article IX hereof. Unless otherwise agreed upon in writing by the parties to the applicable Cause of Action, all objections to the Retained Causes of Action Schedule must be Filed with the Bankruptcy Court on or before thirty (30) days after the Effective Date. Any such objection that is not timely Filed shall be disallowed and forever barred, estopped, and enjoined from assertion against any Reorganized Debtor, without the need for any objection or responsive pleading by the Reorganized Debtors or any other party in interest or any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court. The Reorganized Debtors may settle any such objection without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court. If there is any dispute regarding the inclusion of any Cause of Action on the Retained Causes of Action Schedule that remains unresolved by the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, and the objection party for thirty (30) days, such objection shall be resolved by the Bankruptcy Court. Unless any Causes of Action of the Debtors against an Entity are expressly waived, relinquished, exculpated, released, compromised, or settled in this Plan (including in Article IX hereof) or a Final Order, the Reorganized Debtors expressly reserve all Causes of Action, for later adjudication, and, therefore, no preclusion doctrine, including the doctrines of res judicata,

GRAPHIC

36 collateral estoppel, issue preclusion, claim preclusion, estoppel (judicial, equitable, or otherwise), or laches, shall apply to such Causes of Action upon, after, or as a consequence of the Confirmation or Consummation. The Reorganized Debtors reserve and shall retain such Causes of Action of the Debtors notwithstanding the rejection or repudiation of any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease during the Chapter 11 Cases or pursuant to this Plan. In accordance with section 1123(b)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code, any Causes of Action that a Debtor may hold against any Entity shall vest in the Reorganized Debtors, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Plan, including Article IX hereof. The applicable Reorganized Debtors, through their authorized agents or representatives, shall retain and may exclusively enforce any and all such Causes of Action. The Reorganized Debtors shall have the exclusive right, authority, and discretion to determine and to initiate, File, prosecute, enforce, abandon, settle, compromise, release, withdraw, or litigate to judgment any such Causes of Action and to decline to do any of the foregoing without the consent or approval of any third party or further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court. ARTICLE VI. TREATMENT OF EXECUTORY CONTRACTS AND UNEXPIRED LEASES A. Assumption and Rejection of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases On the Effective Date, except as otherwise provided in Section VI.H.1 and elsewhere herein, all Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases not otherwise assumed or rejected will be deemed assumed by the applicable Reorganized Debtor in accordance with the provisions and requirements of sections 365 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code, other than those that: (1) are identified on the Rejected Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases Schedule; (2) previously expired or terminated pursuant to their own terms; (3) have been previously assumed or rejected by the Debtors pursuant to a Final Order; (4) are the subject of a motion to reject that is pending on the Effective Date; or (5) have an ordered or requested effective date of rejection that is after the Effective Date. Entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute an order of the Bankruptcy Court approving the assumptions, assumptions and assignments, or rejections of the Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases as set forth in this Plan or the Rejected Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases Schedule, pursuant to sections 365(a) and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code. Except as otherwise specifically set forth herein, assumptions or rejections of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases pursuant to this Plan are effective as of the Effective Date. Each Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease assumed pursuant to this Plan or by Final Order but not assigned to a third party before the Effective Date shall re-vest in and be fully enforceable by the applicable contracting Reorganized Debtor in accordance with its terms, except as such terms may have been modified by the provisions of this Plan or any Final Order authorizing and providing for its assumption. Any motions to assume Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases pending on the Effective Date shall be subject to approval by a Final Order on or after the Effective Date but may be withdrawn, settled, or otherwise prosecuted by the Reorganized Debtors.

GRAPHIC

37 To the maximum extent permitted by law, to the extent any provision in any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease assumed or assumed and assigned pursuant to this Plan restricts or prevents, or purports to restrict or prevent, or is breached or deemed breached by, the assumption or assumption and assignment of such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease (including any “change of control” provision), then such provision shall be deemed modified such that the transactions contemplated by this Plan shall not entitle the non-Debtor party thereto to terminate such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease or to exercise any other default-related rights with respect thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, reserve the right to alter, amend, modify, or supplement the Rejected Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases Schedule at any time up to thirty (30) days after the Effective Date, so long as such allocation, amendment, modification, or supplement is acceptable to the Noteholder Group. B. Indemnification Obligations On the Effective Date, all Indemnification Provisions shall be deemed and treated as Executory Contracts that are and shall be assumed by the Debtors (and assigned to the applicable Reorganized Debtors, if necessary) on terms no less favorable to the applicable counterparty pursuant to section 365(a) and section 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code as to which no proof of Claim, request for administrative expense, or cure claim need be Filed, and all Claims arising from the Indemnification Provisions shall survive the Effective Date and be Unimpaired. Unless previously effectuated by separate order entered by the Bankruptcy Court, entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of the Debtors’ assumption of each of the Indemnification Provisions. Confirmation and Consummation of this Plan shall not impair or otherwise modify any available defenses of the Reorganized Debtors or other applicable parties under the Indemnification Provisions. For the avoidance of doubt, the Indemnification Provisions shall continue to apply with respect to actions, or failures to act, that occurred on or prior to the Effective Date, subject to the terms and conditions of the Indemnification Provisions. C. Claims Based on Rejection of Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases Unless otherwise provided by a Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court, all Proofs of Claim with respect to Rejection Damages Claims, pursuant to this Plan or the Confirmation Order, if any, must be Filed with the Bankruptcy Court within thirty (30) days after the later of (1) the date of entry of an order of the Bankruptcy Court (including the Confirmation Order) approving such rejection, (2) the effective date of such rejection, or (3) the Effective Date. Any Rejection Damages Claims not Filed with the Bankruptcy Court within such time will be automatically disallowed, forever barred from assertion, and shall not be enforceable against the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, the Estates, or their property without the need for any objection by the Reorganized Debtors or further notice to, or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court or any other Entity, and any Rejection Damage Claim shall be deemed fully satisfied, released, and discharged, notwithstanding anything in the Proof of Claim to the contrary. All Allowed Rejection Damages Claims shall be classified as General Unsecured Claims and shall be treated in accordance with Section III.B.5 of this Plan.

GRAPHIC

38 D. Cure of Defaults for Assumed Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases The Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall pay Cures, if any, on the Effective Date or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter. Unless otherwise agreed upon in writing by the parties to the applicable Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease, all requests for payment of Cure that differ from the amounts paid or proposed to be paid by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors to a counterparty must be Filed with the Bankruptcy Court on or before thirty (30) days after the Effective Date. Any such request that is not timely filed shall be disallowed and forever barred, estopped, and enjoined from assertion, and shall not be enforceable against any Reorganized Debtor, without the need for any objection by the Reorganized Debtors or any other party in interest or any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court. Any Cure shall be deemed fully satisfied, released, and discharged upon payment by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors of the Cure; provided that nothing herein shall prevent the Reorganized Debtors from paying any Cure despite the failure of the relevant counterparty to File such request for payment of such Cure. The Reorganized Debtors also may settle any Cure without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court. In addition, any objection to the assumption of an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease under the Plan, must be Filed with the Bankruptcy Court on or before thirty (30) days after the Effective Date. Any such objection will be scheduled to be heard by the Bankruptcy Court at the Debtors’ or Reorganized Debtors’, as applicable, first scheduled omnibus hearing for which such objection is timely filed. Any counterparty to an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease that fails to timely object to the proposed assumption of any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease will be deemed to have consented to such assumption. If there is any dispute regarding any Cure, the ability of the Reorganized Debtors or any assignee to provide “adequate assurance of further performance” within the meaning of section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any other matter pertaining to assumption, then payment of Cure shall occur as soon as reasonably practicable after entry of a Final Order resolving such dispute, approving such assumption (and, if applicable, assignment), or as may be agreed upon by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, and the counterparty to the Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease. Assumption of any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease pursuant to this Plan or otherwise and full payment of any applicable Cure pursuant to this Section VI.D shall result in the full release and satisfaction of any Cures, Claims, or defaults, whether monetary or nonmonetary, including defaults of provisions restricting the change in control or ownership interest composition or other bankruptcy-related defaults, arising under any assumed Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease at any time prior to the effective date of assumption. Any and all Proofs of Claim based upon Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases that have been assumed in the Chapter 11 Cases, including pursuant to the Confirmation Order, and for which any Cure has been fully paid pursuant to this Section VI.D, shall be deemed disallowed and expunged as of the Effective Date without the need for any objection thereto or any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

GRAPHIC

39 E. Preexisting Obligations to the Debtors under Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases Rejection of any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease pursuant to this Plan or otherwise shall not constitute a termination of preexisting obligations owed to the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, under such Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases. In particular, notwithstanding any non-bankruptcy law to the contrary, the Reorganized Debtors expressly reserve and do not waive any right to receive, or any continuing obligation of a counterparty to provide, warranties or continued maintenance obligations with respect to goods previously purchased by the Debtors pursuant to rejected Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases. F. Insurance Policies Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Definitive Documentation, the Plan Supplement, any other document related to any of the foregoing, or any other order of the Bankruptcy Court (including, without limitation, any other provision that purports to be preemptory or supervening, grants an injunction or release or requires a party to opt out of any releases): on and after the Effective Date (i) each of the Debtors’ Insurance Contracts shall be treated as Executory Contracts under this Plan and the Debtors and Reorganized Debtors jointly and severally shall be deemed to have assumed the Insurance Contracts pursuant to sections 105 and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code; (ii) nothing shall alter, amend or otherwise modify the terms and conditions of the Insurance Contracts except that, on and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall become and remain jointly and severally liable in full for all of their and the Debtors’ obligations under the Insurance Contracts, regardless of whether such obligations arise before or after the Effective Date, without the requirement or need for any Insurer to file a Proof of Claim or an Administrative Expense Claim, or to object to any Cure; and (iii) the automatic stay of Bankruptcy Code section 362(a) and the injunction set forth in Section IX.F hereof, if and to the extent applicable, shall be deemed lifted without further order of the Bankruptcy Court, solely to permit: (a) claimants with valid workers’ compensation claims or with valid direct action claims against an Insurer under applicable non-bankruptcy law to proceed with their claims; (b) Insurers to administer, handle, defend, settle, and/or pay, in the ordinary course of business and without further order of this Bankruptcy Court, (1) workers’ compensation claims, (2) claims where a claimant asserts a direct claim against any Insurer under applicable non-bankruptcy law, or an order has been entered by this Bankruptcy Court granting a claimant relief from the automatic stay or the injunction set forth in Section IX.F hereof to proceed with its claim, and (3) all costs in relation to each of the foregoing; and (c) the Insurers to cancel any Insurance Contracts, and take other actions relating thereto, to the extent permissible under applicable non-bankruptcy law, and in accordance with the terms of the Insurance Contracts. G. Reservation of Rights Nothing contained in this Plan or the Plan Supplement shall constitute an admission by the Debtors or any other party that any contract or lease is in fact an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease or that any Reorganized Debtor has any liability thereunder. If there is a dispute regarding whether a contract or lease is or was executory or unexpired at the time of assumption or rejection, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall have forty-five (45) days following entry of a Final Order resolving such dispute to alter their treatment of such contract or lease.

40 H. Nonoccurrence of Effective Date In the event that the Effective Date does not occur, the Bankruptcy Court shall retain jurisdiction with respect to any request to extend the deadline for assuming or rejecting Unexpired Leases pursuant to section 365(d)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code. I. Employee Compensation and Benefits 1. Assumed Employee Plans All officers of ICD immediately prior to the Effective Date shall be retained in their existing positions upon the Effective Date. All employment agreements and severance policies, including all employment, compensation and benefit plans, policies, and programs of the Debtors applicable to any of their officers, employees and retirees, including without limitation, all workers’ compensation programs, savings plans, retirement plans, SERP plans, healthcare plans, disability plans, severance benefit plans, incentive plans, change-in-control plans, life and accidental death and dismemberment insurance plans (collectively, the “Assumed Employee Plans”), shall, subject to the provisos below, be maintained and assumed by the Debtors (and assigned to the Reorganized Debtors, if necessary) pursuant to section 365(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, either by separate motion filed with the Bankruptcy Court or pursuant to the terms of this Plan and the Confirmation Order; provided that (a) the Debtors acknowledge and agree that the Restructuring Transaction shall not constitute a change in control or term of similar meaning pursuant to any of the Assumed Employee Plans, and the Confirmation Order shall contain a finding and such other provisions acceptable to the Noteholder Group confirming the same, and (b) each “Executive” employment agreement shall only be maintained and assumed by the Debtors (and assigned to the Reorganized Debtors, if necessary) and considered an Assumed Employee Plan if the employee party to such agreement, on or prior to the Effective Date, (i) confirms that the Restructuring Transactions do not constitute a change in control and (ii) waives any right to resign with “good reason” solely as a result of the Restructuring Transactions and/or the transactions contemplated thereby or hereby. All claims arising from the Assumed Employee Plans shall otherwise be Unimpaired by this Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, the Debtors shall pay in full any and all amounts due and owing under the Debtors’ 2024 Incentive Compensation Policy in the ordinary course. 2. Workers’ Compensation Programs As of the Effective Date, except as set forth in the Plan Supplement, the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors shall continue to honor their obligations under: (a) all applicable workers’ compensation laws in all applicable states; and (b) the Workers’ Compensation Programs. All Proofs of Claims on account of Workers’ Compensation Programs shall be deemed withdrawn automatically and without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court; provided that nothing in this Plan shall limit, diminish, or otherwise alter the Debtors’ or Reorganized Debtors’ defenses, Causes of Action, or other rights under applicable non-bankruptcy law with respect to the Workers’ Compensation Programs; provided further that nothing herein shall be deemed to impose any obligations on the Debtors or the Insurers in addition to what is provided for under the terms of the Workers’ Compensation Programs and applicable state law.

GRAPHIC

41 J. Contracts and Leases Entered Into after the Petition Date Contracts and leases entered into after the Petition Date by any Debtor, including any Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases assumed by such Debtor, will be performed by the applicable Debtor or the Reorganized Debtors in the ordinary course of their business. Accordingly, such contracts and leases (including any assumed Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases) will survive and remain unaffected by entry of the Confirmation Order. ARTICLE VII. PROVISIONS GOVERNING DISTRIBUTIONS A. Distributions on Account of Claims Allowed as of the Effective Date Except as otherwise provided herein, in a Final Order, or as otherwise agreed to by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as the case may be, and the Holder of the applicable Allowed Claim on the first Distribution Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall make initial distributions under this Plan on account of Claims Allowed as of the Effective Date, subject to the Reorganized Debtors’ right to object to Claims; provided that (1) Allowed Administrative Expense Claims with respect to liabilities incurred by the Debtors in the ordinary course of business during the Chapter 11 Cases or assumed by the Debtors prior to the Effective Date shall be paid or performed in the ordinary course of business in accordance with the terms and conditions of any controlling agreements, course of dealing, course of business, or industry practice; (2) Allowed Professional Claims shall be paid in accordance with Section II.C of this Plan; (3) Allowed Priority Tax Claims shall be paid in accordance with Section II.E of this Plan, and (4) Allowed General Unsecured Claims against Debtors shall be paid in accordance with Section III.B.5 of this Plan. To the extent any Allowed Priority Tax Claim is not due and owing on the Effective Date, such Claim shall be paid in full in Cash in accordance with the terms of any agreement between the Debtors and the Holder of such Claim or as may be due and payable under applicable non-bankruptcy law or in the ordinary course of business. B. Disbursing Agent All distributions under this Plan shall be made by the Disbursing Agent. The Disbursing Agent shall not be required to give any bond or surety or other security for the performance of its duties unless otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court. Additionally, in the event that the Disbursing Agent is so otherwise ordered, all costs and expenses of procuring any such bond or surety shall be borne by the Reorganized Debtors. C. Rights and Powers of Disbursing Agent 1. Powers of the Disbursing Agent The Disbursing Agent shall be empowered to: (a) effect all actions and execute all agreements, instruments, and other documents necessary to perform its duties under this Plan; (b) make all distributions contemplated hereby; (c) employ professionals to represent it with respect to its responsibilities; and (d) exercise such other powers as may be vested in the

GRAPHIC

42 Disbursing Agent by order of the Bankruptcy Court, pursuant to this Plan, or as deemed by the Disbursing Agent to be necessary and proper to implement the provisions hereof. 2. Expenses Incurred On or After the Effective Date Except as otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court, to the extent the Disbursing Agent is an Entity other than the Reorganized Debtors, the amount of any reasonable fees and expenses incurred by such Disbursing Agent on or after the Effective Date (including taxes), and any reasonable compensation and expense reimbursement claims (including reasonable attorney fees and expenses), made by such Disbursing Agent shall be paid in Cash by the Reorganized Debtors. D. Delivery of Distributions and Undeliverable or Unclaimed Distributions 1. Record Date for Distribution On the Distribution Record Date, the Claims Register shall be closed and any party responsible for making distributions shall instead be authorized and entitled to recognize only those record Holders listed on the Claims Register as of the close of business on the Distribution Record Date. If a Claim, other than one based on a publicly traded Security, is transferred 20 or fewer days before the Distribution Record Date, the Disbursing Agent shall make distributions to the transferee only to the extent practical and, in any event, only if the relevant transfer form contains an unconditional and explicit certification and waiver of any objection to the transfer by the transferor. 2. Delivery of Distributions in General Except as otherwise provided herein, the Disbursing Agent shall make distributions to Holders of Allowed Claims and Allowed Interests (as applicable) as of the Distribution Record Date at the address for each such Holder as indicated on the Debtors’ records as of the date of any such distribution; provided, however, that the manner of such distributions shall be determined at the discretion of the Reorganized Debtors. 3. Delivery of Distributions on DIP Claims, Revolving ABL Claims, and Notes Claims As soon as practicable following compliance with the requirements set forth in Article VII hereof, the DIP Lenders, as applicable, the Revolving ABL Agent, and the Indenture Trustee shall arrange to deliver or direct the delivery of such distributions to or on behalf of the Holders of Allowed DIP Claims, Allowed Revolving ABL Claims, and Allowed Notes Claims, respectively, in accordance with the terms of the DIP Facility, Revolving ABL Credit Agreement, the Indenture, and this Plan. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, and without limiting the exculpation and release provisions of this Plan, the DIP Lenders, Revolving ABL Agent, and Indenture Trustee shall not have any liability to any Entity with respect to distributions made or directed to be made by the DIP Lenders, Revolving ABL Agent, Indenture Trustee, or Disbursing Agent.

GRAPHIC

43 4. Minimum Distributions No fractional shares of New Common Stock shall be distributed and no Cash shall be distributed in lieu of such fractional amounts. When any distribution pursuant to this Plan on account of an Allowed Claim would otherwise result in the issuance of a number of shares of New Common Stock that is not a whole number, the actual distribution of shares of New Common Stock shall be rounded as follows: (a) fractions of one-half (1/2) or greater shall be rounded to the next higher whole number and (b) fractions of less than one-half (1/2) shall be rounded to the next lower whole number with no further payment therefor. The total number of authorized shares of New Common Stock to be distributed to Holders of Allowed Claims hereunder shall be adjusted as necessary to account for the foregoing rounding. 5. Undeliverable Distributions and Unclaimed Property In the event that any distribution to any Holder of Allowed Claims is returned as undeliverable, no distribution to such Holder shall be made unless and until the Disbursing Agent has determined the then-current address of such Holder, at which time such distribution shall be made to such Holder without interest; provided, however, that such distributions shall be deemed unclaimed property under section 347(b) of the Bankruptcy Code at the expiration of one year from the Effective Date. After such date, all unclaimed property or interests in property shall revert to the Reorganized Debtors automatically and without need for a further order by the Bankruptcy Court (notwithstanding any applicable federal, provincial or state escheat, abandoned, or unclaimed property laws to the contrary), and the Claim of any Holder of Claims to such property or Interest in property shall be discharged and forever barred. 6. Surrender of Canceled Instruments or Securities. On the Effective Date or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, each Holder of a certificate or instrument evidencing a Claim or an Interest shall be deemed to have surrendered such certificate or instrument to the Disbursing Agent. Such surrendered certificate or instrument shall be cancelled solely with respect to the Debtors, and such cancellation shall not alter the obligations or rights of any non-Debtor third parties vis-à-vis one another with respect to such certificate or instrument, including with respect to any indenture or agreement that governs the rights of the Holder of a Claim or Interest or a trustee or agent under such documents, which shall continue in effect for purposes of allowing Holders to receive distributions under this Plan and maintaining priority of payment, and to preserve any applicable charging liens and reimbursement and/or indemnification rights, in each case as set forth in the applicable certificates or instruments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this paragraph shall not apply to certificates or instruments evidencing Claims that are Unimpaired under this Plan. E. Manner of Payment All distributions of the New Common Stock or Cash to the Holders of the applicable Allowed Claims under this Plan shall be made by the Disbursing Agent on behalf of the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as applicable.

GRAPHIC

44 At the option of the Disbursing Agent, any Cash payment to be made hereunder may be made by check or wire transfer or as otherwise required or provided in applicable agreements. F. Exemption from Registration Requirements Pursuant to section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code, the offering, issuance, and distribution of the New Common Stock, as contemplated by Section III.B hereof, shall be exempt from, among other things, the registration requirements of section 5 of the Securities Act and any other applicable law requiring registration prior to the offering, issuance, distribution, or sale of Securities. In addition, under section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code, such New Common Stock will be freely tradable in the U.S. by the recipients thereof, subject to the provisions of (i) section 1145(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code relating to the definition of an underwriter in section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act; (ii) compliance with applicable securities laws and any rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, if any, applicable at the time of any future transfer of such Securities or instruments; and (iii) any restrictions in the Reorganized Debtors’ New Organizational Documents. G. Compliance with Tax Requirements In connection with this Plan, to the extent applicable, the Debtors, Reorganized Debtors, Disbursing Agent, and any applicable withholding agent shall comply with all tax withholding and reporting requirements imposed on them by any Governmental Unit, and all distributions made pursuant to this Plan shall be subject to such withholding and reporting requirements. Notwithstanding any provision in this Plan to the contrary, such parties shall be authorized to take all actions necessary or appropriate to comply with such withholding and reporting requirements, including liquidating a portion of the distribution to be made under this Plan to generate sufficient funds to pay applicable withholding taxes, withholding distributions pending receipt of information necessary to facilitate such distributions, or establishing any other mechanisms they believe are reasonable and appropriate. The Debtors and Reorganized Debtors reserve the right to allocate all distributions made under this Plan in compliance with all applicable wage garnishments, alimony, child support, and other spousal awards, Liens, and encumbrances. H. Allocations Plan Distributions in respect of Allowed Claims shall be allocated first to the principal amount of such Claims (as determined for federal income tax purposes) and then, to the extent the consideration exceeds the principal amount of the Claims, to any portion of such Claims for accrued but unpaid interest. I. No Postpetition Interest on Claims Unless otherwise specifically provided for in this Plan, the Confirmation Order, the Final DIP Order, or required by applicable bankruptcy and non-bankruptcy law, postpetition interest shall not accrue or be paid on any Claims, and no Holder of a Claim shall be entitled to interest accruing on or after the Petition Date on such Claim or right. Additionally, and without limiting the foregoing, interest shall not accrue or be paid on any Disputed Claim with respect to the period

GRAPHIC

45 form the Effective Date to the date a final distribution is made on account of such Disputed Claim, if and when such Disputed Claim becomes and Allowed Claim. J. Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Except as otherwise provided in a Bankruptcy Court order, as of the Effective Date, any Claim asserted in currency other than U.S. dollars shall be automatically deemed converted to the equivalent U.S. dollar value using the exchange rate for the applicable currency as published in The Wall Street Journal, National Edition, on the Effective Date. K. Setoffs and Recoupment Except as expressly provided in this Plan, each Reorganized Debtor may, pursuant to section 553 of the Bankruptcy Code, set off and/or recoup against any Plan Distributions to be made on account of any Allowed Claim, any and all claims, rights, and Causes of Action that such Reorganized Debtor may hold against the Holder of such Allowed Claim to the extent such setoff or recoupment is either (1) agreed in amount among the relevant Reorganized Debtor(s) and the Holder of the Allowed Claim or (2) otherwise adjudicated by the Bankruptcy Court or another court of competent jurisdiction; provided, however, that neither the failure to effectuate a setoff or recoupment nor the allowance of any Claim hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release by a Reorganized Debtor or its successor of any and all claims, rights, and Causes of Action that such Reorganized Debtor or its successor may possess against the applicable Holder. In no event shall any Holder of a Claim be entitled to recoup such Claim against any claim, right, or Cause of Action of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, unless such Holder actually has performed such recoupment and provided notice thereof in writing to the Debtors in accordance with Section XIII.F hereof on or before the Effective Date, notwithstanding any indication in any Proof of Claim or otherwise that such Holder asserts, has, or intends to preserve any right of recoupment. L. Claims Paid or Payable by Third Parties 1. Claims Paid by Third Parties The Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall reduce in full a Claim, and such Claim shall be disallowed without a Claims objection having to be Filed and without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court, to the extent that the Holder of such Claim receives payment in full on account of such Claim from a party that is not a Debtor or a Reorganized Debtor. Subject to the last sentence of this paragraph, to the extent a Holder of a Claim receives a distribution on account of such Claim and receives payment from a party that is not a Debtor or a Reorganized Debtor on account of such Claim, such Holder shall, within fourteen (14) days of receipt thereof, repay or return the distribution to the applicable Reorganized Debtor, to the extent the Holder’s total recovery on account of such Claim from the third party and under this Plan exceeds the amount of such Claim as of the date of any such distribution under this Plan. The failure of such Holder to timely repay or return such distribution shall result in the Holder owing the applicable Reorganized Debtor annualized interest at the Federal Judgment Rate

46 on such amount owed for each Business Day after the fourteen (14) day grace period specified above until the amount is repaid. 2. Claims Payable by Third Parties No distributions under this Plan shall be made on account of an Allowed Claim that is payable pursuant to one of the Debtors’ Insurance Contracts until the Holder of such Allowed Claim has exhausted all remedies with respect to such Insurance Contract. To the extent that one or more of the Debtors’ Insurers agrees to pay in full or in part a Claim (if and to the extent adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction or otherwise settled), then immediately upon such Insurers’ agreement, the applicable portion of such Claim may be expunged without a Claims objection having to be Filed and without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court. 3. Applicability of Insurance Policies Except as otherwise provided in this Plan, payments to Holders of Claims covered by Insurance Contracts shall be in accordance with the provisions of the applicable Insurance Contract and this Plan. Nothing contained in this Plan shall constitute or be deemed a waiver of any Cause of Action that the Debtors or any Entity may hold against any other Entity, including Insurers under any Insurance Contract, nor shall anything contained herein constitute or be deemed a waiver by such Insurers of any defenses, including coverage defenses, held by such Insurers. ARTICLE VIII. PROCEDURES FOR RESOLVING CONTINGENT, UNLIQUIDATED, AND DISPUTED CLAIMS A. Disputed Claims Process Notwithstanding section 502(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, and in light of the Unimpaired status of all Allowed General Unsecured Claims under this Plan, except as required by this Plan, Holders of Claims need not File Proofs of Claim, and the Reorganized Debtors and the Holders of Claims shall determine, adjudicate, and resolve any disputes over the validity and amounts of such Claims in the ordinary course of business as if the Chapter 11 Cases had not been commenced except that (unless expressly waived pursuant to this Plan) the Allowed amount of such Claims shall be subject to the limitations or maximum amounts permitted by the Bankruptcy Code, including sections 502 and 503 of the Bankruptcy Code, to the extent applicable. All Proofs of Claim filed in the Chapter 11 Cases shall be considered objected to and Disputed without further action by the Debtors. Upon the Effective Date, all Proofs of Claim filed against the Debtors, regardless of the time of filing, and including Proofs of Claim filed after the Effective Date, shall be deemed withdrawn and expunged, other than Rejection Damages Claims and as provided below. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, disputes regarding the amount of any Cure pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code and Claims that the Debtors seek to have determined by the Bankruptcy Court, shall in all cases be determined by the Bankruptcy Court.

GRAPHIC

47 For the avoidance of doubt, there is no requirement to File a Proof of Claim or Proof of Interest (or move the Bankruptcy Court for allowance) to be an Allowed Claim or Allowed Interest, as applicable, under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Entities must File Proofs of Claim for Rejection Damages Claims as set forth in Section VI.C of this Plan and Cure objections as set forth in Section VI.D of this Plan to the extent such Entity disputes the amount of the Cure paid or proposed to be paid by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors to a counterparty. Except as otherwise provided herein, all Proofs of Claim filed after the Effective Date shall be disallowed and forever barred, estopped, and enjoined from assertion, and shall not be enforceable against any Reorganized Debtor, without the need for any objection by the Reorganized Debtors or any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court. B. Allowance of Claims. Except as otherwise set forth in this Plan, after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall have and retain any and all rights and defenses the applicable Debtor had with respect to any Claim immediately before the Effective Date, including the Causes of Action retained pursuant to Section V.S of this Plan. Except as specifically provided in this Plan or an order entered by the Bankruptcy Court in the Chapter 11 Cases, no Claim shall become an Allowed Claim unless and until such Claim is deemed Allowed in accordance with this Plan. C. Claims Administration Responsibilities Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Plan, after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall have the sole authority: (1) to File, withdraw, or litigate to judgment, objections to Claims; (2) to settle or compromise any Disputed Claim without any further notice to or action, order, or approval by the Bankruptcy Court; and (3) to administer and adjust the Claims Register to reflect any such settlements or compromises without any further notice to or action, order, or approval by the Bankruptcy Court. Any objections to Claims and Interests other than General Unsecured Claims shall be served and Filed on or before the 180th day after the Effective Date or by such later date as ordered by the Bankruptcy Court. All Claims and Interests other than General Unsecured Claims not objected to by the end of such 180-day period shall be deemed Allowed unless such period is extended upon approval of the Bankruptcy Court. Any objections to Rejection Damages Claims shall be served and Filed on or before the 180th day after the Effective Date or by such later date as ordered by the Bankruptcy Court. All Rejection Damages Claims not objected to by the end of such 180-day period shall be deemed Allowed unless such period is extended upon approval of the Bankruptcy Court. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Debtors and Reorganized Debtors shall be entitled to dispute and/or otherwise object to any General Unsecured Claim in accordance with applicable nonbankruptcy law. If the Debtors, or Reorganized Debtors dispute any General Unsecured Claim, such dispute shall be determined, resolved, or adjudicated, as the case may be, in the manner as if the Chapter 11 Cases had not been commenced. In any action or proceeding to determine the

GRAPHIC

48 existence, validity, or amount of any General Unsecured Claim, any and all claims or defenses that could have been asserted by the applicable Debtor(s) or the Entity holding such General Unsecured Claim are preserved as if the Chapter 11 Cases had not been commenced. D. Adjustment to Claims without Objection Any duplicate Claim or any Claim that has been paid, satisfied, amended, or superseded may be adjusted or expunged on the Claims Register by the Reorganized Debtors without the Reorganized Debtors having to File an application, motion, complaint, objection, or any other legal proceeding seeking to object to such Claim or Interest and without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court. E. Disallowance of Claims or Interests All Claims of any Entity from which property is sought by the Debtors under sections 542, 543, 550, or 553 of the Bankruptcy Code or that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors allege is a transferee of a transfer that is avoidable under sections 522(f), 522(h), 544, 545, 547, 548, 549, or 724(a) of the Bankruptcy Code shall be Disallowed pursuant to section 502(d) of the Bankruptcy Code if: (a) the Entity, on the one hand, and the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, on the other hand, agree or the Bankruptcy Court has determined by Final Order that such Entity or transferee is liable to turn over any property or monies under any of the aforementioned sections of the Bankruptcy Code; and (b) such Entity or transferee has failed to turn over such property by the date set forth in such agreement or Final Order. F. No Distributions Pending Allowance Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, if any portion of a Claim is a Disputed Claim, as applicable, no payment or distribution provided hereunder shall be made on account of such Claim unless and until such Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim; provided that if only the Allowed amount of an otherwise valid Claim is Disputed, such Claim shall be deemed Allowed in the amount not Disputed and payment or distribution shall be made on account of such undisputed amount. G. Distributions after Allowance To the extent that a Disputed Claim ultimately becomes an Allowed Claim, distributions shall be made to the Holder of such Allowed Claim in accordance with the provisions of this Plan. As soon as reasonably practicable after the date that the order or judgment of the Bankruptcy Court allowing any Disputed Claim becomes a Final Order, the Disbursing Agent shall provide to the Holder of such Claim the distribution to which such Holder is entitled under this Plan as of the Effective Date, without any interest to be paid on account of such Claim.

49 ARTICLE IX. SETTLEMENT, RELEASE, INJUNCTION, AND RELATED PROVISIONS A. Discharge of Claims and Termination of Interests Pursuant to section 1141(d) of the Bankruptcy Code, and except as otherwise specifically provided in this Plan (including with respect to Reinstated Claims), the Confirmation Order or in any contract, instrument, or other agreement or document created pursuant to this Plan, the distributions, rights, and treatment that are provided in this Plan shall be in complete satisfaction, discharge, and release, effective as of the Effective Date, of Claims (including any Intercompany Claims resolved or compromised after the Effective Date by the Reorganized Debtors), Interests, and Causes of Action of any nature whatsoever, including any interest accrued on Claims or Interests from and after the Petition Date, whether known or unknown, against, liabilities of, liens on, obligations of, rights against, and Interests in, the Debtors or any of their assets or properties, regardless of whether any property shall have been distributed or retained pursuant to this Plan on account of such Claims and Interests, including demands, liabilities, and Causes of Action that arose before the Effective Date, any liability (including withdrawal liability) to the extent such Claims or Interests relate to services performed by employees of the Debtors prior to the Effective Date and that arise from a termination of employment, any contingent or non-contingent liability on account of representations or warranties issued on or before the Effective Date, and all debts of the kind specified in sections 502(g), 502(h), or 502(i) of the Bankruptcy Code, in each case whether or not: (a) a Proof of Claim based upon such debt or right is Filed or deemed Filed pursuant to section 501 of the Bankruptcy Code; (b) a Claim or Interest based upon such debt, right, or Interest is Allowed pursuant to section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code; or (c) the Holder of such a Claim or Interest has accepted this Plan. The Confirmation Order shall be a judicial determination of the discharge of all Claims and Interests subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date. B. Release of Liens Except as otherwise provided in this Plan (including Section III.B and Section V.E hereof), the Confirmation Order, or in any contract, instrument, or other agreement or document created pursuant to this Plan (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Exit Facilities Documents), on the Effective Date and concurrently with the applicable distributions made pursuant to this Plan and, in the case of a Secured Claim, satisfaction in full of the portion of the Secured Claim that is Allowed as of the Effective Date, except for (i) with respect to any Lien securing any Allowed Revolving ABL Claims or Notes Claims, in each case, that are amended and restated under the Exit Facilities, and (ii) Allowed Other Secured Claims that the Debtors elect to Reinstate in accordance with this Plan, all mortgages, deeds of trust, Liens, pledges, or other security interests against any property of the Estates shall be fully released and discharged, and all of the right, title, and interest of any Holder of such mortgages, deeds of trust, Liens, pledges, or other security interests shall revert to the Reorganized Debtors and their successors and assigns. Any Holder of such Secured Claim (and the applicable agents for such Holder) shall be authorized and directed, at the sole cost and expense of the Reorganized Debtors, to release any collateral or other property of any Debtor (including any cash collateral and possessory collateral) held by such Holder (and the applicable agents for such Holder), and to take such actions as may be

GRAPHIC

50 reasonably requested by the Reorganized Debtors to evidence the release of such Lien, including the execution, delivery, and Filing or recording of such releases. The presentation or Filing of the Confirmation Order to or with any federal, state, provincial, or local agency or department shall constitute good and sufficient evidence of, but shall not be required to effect, the termination of such Liens. To the extent that any Holder of a Secured Claim (other than a Holder of any Allowed Revolving ABL Claims (with respect to such Allowed Revolving ABL Claims) and a Holder of Notes Claims (with respect to such Notes Claims)) that has been satisfied or discharged in full pursuant to this Plan, or any agent for such Holder, has filed or recorded publicly any Liens and/or security interests to secure such Holder’s Secured Claim, then as soon as practicable on or after the Effective Date, such Holder (or the agent for such Holder) shall take any and all steps reasonably requested by the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, Revolving ABL Agent or Exit Facility Agents, if any, that are necessary or desirable to record or effectuate the cancellation and/or extinguishment of such Liens and/or security interests, including the making of any applicable filings or recordings, and the Reorganized Debtors shall be entitled to make any such filings or recordings on such Holder’s behalf. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing and anything in the Revolving ABL Documents or the Note Documents to the contrary, in accordance with the terms of the Plan, the security interests and Liens of the Revolving ABL Agent in respect of the Revolving ABL Credit Facility and the Indenture Trustee in respect of the 2026 Convertible Notes shall not be released or discharged and shall remain in place, including as to the time of perfection, and (a) the security interests and Liens of the Revolving ABL Agent securing the obligations under the Revolving ABL Facility shall be shall be assigned to the Exit ABL Facility Agent to secure the obligations under the Exit ABL Facility for the benefit of the secured parties under the Exit ABL Facility, and (b) the security interests and Liens of the Indenture Trustee securing the obligations under the 2026 Convertible Notes shall be assigned to the Exit Term Loan Agent to secure the obligations under the Exit Term Loan Facility for the benefit of the secured parties under the Exit Term Loan Facility, in each case, pursuant to the terms set forth in the Confirmation Order. C. Releases by the Debtors and their Estates (the “Debtor Release”) Effective as of the Effective Date, pursuant to section 1123(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, for good and valuable consideration (including, without limitation, the service of the Released Parties to facilitate the expeditious reorganization of the Debtors, the implementation of the restructuring contemplated by this Plan, and the waiver of certain Claims of certain of the Released Parties against the Debtors) the adequacy of which is hereby confirmed, to the fullest extent allowed by applicable law, each Released Party is hereby deemed conclusively, absolutely, unconditionally, irrevocably, and forever released and discharged by each and all of the Debtors, their Estates, and the Reorganized Debtors, in each case on behalf of themselves and their respective successors, assigns, and representatives, and any and all other Entities who may purport to assert any claim or Cause of Action, directly or derivatively, by, through, for, or because of the foregoing Entities, from any and all claims and Causes of Action, and liabilities whatsoever, including any derivative

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, the releases set forth above do not release (a) any obligations arising pursuant to or after the Effective Date of any party or Entity under the Plan, the Confirmation Order, or any document, instrument, or agreement (including those set forth in the Plan Supplement) executed to implement the Plan, (b) any Causes of Action included in the Retained Causes of Action Schedule, or (c) actual fraud, willful misconduct, or gross negligence as determined by a Final Order. Entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s approval, pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 9019, of the Debtor Release, which includes by reference each of the related provisions and definitions contained in this Plan and, further, shall constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s finding that the Debtor Release is: (a) in exchange for the good and valuable consideration provided by the Released Parties; (b) a good faith settlement and compromise of the claims or Causes of Action released by the Debtor Release; (c) in the best interests of the Debtors, the Estates, and all Holders of Claims and Interests; (d) fair, equitable, and reasonable; (e) given and made after reasonable investigation by the Debtors and after due notice and opportunity for hearing; and (f) a bar to any of the Debtors, their Estates, or the Reorganized Debtors asserting any claim or Cause of Action released pursuant to the Debtor Release. D. Releases by the Releasing Parties (the “Third-Party Release”) Effective as of the Effective Date, in exchange for good and valuable consideration, the adequacy of which is hereby confirmed, to the fullest extent allowed by applicable law, each of the Releasing Parties shall be deemed to have to have conclusively, absolutely, unconditionally, irrevocably, and forever, released and discharged each of the Released Parties from any and all claims, Causes of Action, and liabilities whatsoever, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, matured or unmatured, suspected or unsuspected, existing or hereinafter arising, contingent or non-contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, secured or unsecured, assertable, directly or derivatively, in law (or any applicable rule, statute, regulation, treaty, right, duty or requirement), equity, contract, tort, violations of federal or state securities laws, or otherwise, that such Releasing Party would have been legally entitled to assert in its own right (whether individually or collectively) or otherwise based in whole or in part upon any act or omission, transaction, or other occurrence or

GRAPHIC

52 circumstances existing or taking place prior to or on the Effective Date arising from or related in any way in whole or in part to, the Debtor-Related Matters. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, the releases set forth above do not release (a) any obligations arising pursuant to or after the Effective Date of any party or Entity under the Plan, the Confirmation Order, or any document, instrument, or agreement (including those set forth in the Plan Supplement) executed to implement the Plan, (b) any Causes of Action included in the Retained Causes of Action Schedule, or (c) actual fraud, willful misconduct, or gross negligence as determined by a Final Order. Entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s approval, pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 9019, of the Third-Party Release, which includes by reference each of the related provisions and definitions contained in this Plan, and, further, shall constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s finding that the Third-Party Release is: (a) consensual; (b) essential to the Confirmation of the Plan; (c) given in exchange for the good and valuable consideration provided by the Released Parties, including the Released Parties’ contributions to facilitating the restructuring and implementing the Plan; (d) a good faith settlement and compromise of the claims or Causes of Action released by the Third-Party Release; (e) in the best interests of the Debtors and their Estates; (f) fair, equitable, and reasonable; (g) given and made after due notice and opportunity for hearing; and (h) a bar to any of the Releasing Parties asserting any claim or Cause of Action released pursuant to the Third-Party Release. E. Exculpation Effective as of the Effective Date, to the fullest extent permissible under applicable law and without affecting or limiting either the Debtor Release or the Third-Party Release, and except as otherwise specifically provided in this Plan or the Confirmation Order, no Exculpated Party shall have or incur liability for, and each Exculpated Party hereby is exculpated from any obligation, claim or Cause of Action related to, any act or omission in connection with, relating to, or arising out of the negotiation, solicitation, confirmation, execution, or implementation (to the extent on or prior to the Effective Date) of, as applicable, the Debtor-Related Matters except for claims related to any act or omission that is determined in a Final Order by a court of competent jurisdiction to have constituted bad faith, fraud, willful misconduct, or gross negligence, but in all respects such Entities shall be entitled to reasonably rely upon the advice of counsel with respect to their duties and responsibilities pursuant to the Plan. The Exculpated Parties have acted in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code with regard to the solicitation and distribution of securities pursuant to this Plan and, therefore, are not, and on account of such distributions will not be, liable at any time for the violation of any applicable law, rule, or regulation governing the solicitation of acceptances or rejections of this Plan or such distributions made pursuant to this Plan, including the issuance of securities hereunder. The exculpation hereunder will be in addition to, and not in limitation of, all other releases, indemnities, exculpations, and any other applicable law or rules protecting such Exculpated Parties from liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, an Exculpated Party shall be entitled to exculpation solely for actions taken from the Petition Date through the Effective Date, and the exculpation set forth above does not exculpate any

GRAPHIC

53 obligations arising pursuant to or after the Effective Date of any party or Entity under the Plan, the Confirmation Order, or any document, instrument, or agreement (including those set forth in the Plan Supplement) executed to implement the Plan. Solely with respect to the exculpation provisions, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, each of the Section 1125(e) Parties shall not incur liability for any Cause of Action or Claim related to any act or omission in connection with, relating to, or arising out of, in whole or in part, (a) the solicitation of acceptance or rejection of this Plan in good faith and in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code or (b) the participation, in good faith and in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, in the offer, issuance, sale, or purchase of a security, offered or sold under this Plan. F. Injunction Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Final DIP Order, this Plan, or the Confirmation Order or for obligations issued or required to be paid pursuant this Plan all Entities and persons are permanently enjoined, from and after the Effective Date, from taking any of the following actions against, as applicable, the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, the Exculpated Parties, or the Released Parties: (a) commencing or continuing in any manner any action or other proceeding of any kind on account of or in connection with or with respect to any Claims or Interests; (b) enforcing, attaching, collecting, or recovering in any manner or means any judgment, award, decree, or order against such Entities on account of or in connection with or with respect to any Claims or Interests; (c) creating, perfecting, or enforcing any lien or encumbrance of any kind against such Entities or the property or the estates of such Entities on account of or in connection with or with respect to any Claims or Interests; (d) asserting any right of setoff, subrogation, or recoupment, or other similar legal or equitable right of any kind, in each case in the foregoing classes (a) through (d) on account of or in connection with or with respect to any claim, demand, liability, obligation, debt, right, cause of action, equity interest, or remedy released or to be released, exculpated or to be exculpated, settled or to be settled or discharged or to be discharged pursuant to this Plan or the Confirmation order against any Person or Entity so released, discharged, or exculpated (or the property or estate of any Person or Entity so released, discharged, or exculpated) unless such Holder has Filed a motion requesting the right to perform such setoff on or before the Effective Date, and notwithstanding an indication of a Claim or Interest or otherwise that such Holder asserts, has, or intends to preserve any right of setoff pursuant to applicable law or otherwise; and (e) commencing or continuing in any manner any action or other proceeding of any kind on account of or in connection with or with respect to any such Claims or Interests released, discharged, or settled pursuant to this Plan. All injunctions or stays provided for in the Chapter 11 Cases under section 105 or section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code, or otherwise, and in existence on the Confirmation Date, shall remain in full force and effect until the Effective Date. . Upon entry of the Confirmation Order, all Holders of Claims and Interests and their respective current and former employees, agents, officers, directors, principals, and direct and indirect Affiliates shall be enjoined from taking any actions to interfere with the

GRAPHIC

54 implementation or Consummation of this Plan. Each Holder of an Allowed Claim or Allowed Interest, as applicable, by accepting, or being eligible to accept, distributions under or Reinstatement of such Claim or Interest, as applicable, pursuant to this Plan, shall be deemed to have consented to the injunction provisions set forth in this Section IX.F. G. Gatekeeping Provision No party may commence, continue, amend, or otherwise pursue, join in, or otherwise support any other party commencing, continuing, amending, or pursuing, a Cause of Action of any kind against the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, the Exculpated Parties, the Section 1125(e) Parties, or the Released Parties that relates to, or is reasonably likely to relate to any act or omission in connection with, relating to, or arising out of, a Cause of Action subject to Section IX.C or Section IX.E of this Plan without first (a) requesting a determination from the Bankruptcy Court, after notice and a hearing, that such Cause of Action represents a colorable claim against a Debtor, Reorganized Debtor, Exculpated Party, Section 1125(e) Party, or Released Party and is not a Claim that the Debtors released under this Plan, which request must attach the complaint or petition proposed to be filed by the requesting party, and (b) obtaining from the Bankruptcy Court specific authorization for such party to bring such Cause of Action against any such Debtor, Reorganized Debtor, Exculpated Party, Section 1125(e) Party, or Released Party; provided, however, that this Section IX.G. shall not apply to claims covered by an Insurance Contract solely to the extent to allow Insurers to administer, handle, defend and/or pay claims covered by Insurance Contracts in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of such Insurance Contracts and/or applicable non-bankruptcy law, provided that the automatic stay of section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and/or the injunctions set forth in Section IX.F of this Plan, each if and to the extent applicable, have been lifted with respect to such claims. For the avoidance of doubt, any party that obtains such determination and authorization and subsequently wishes to amend the authorized complaint or petition to add any Causes of Action not explicitly included in the authorized complaint or petition must obtain authorization from the Bankruptcy Court before filing any such amendment in the court where such complaint or petition is pending. The Bankruptcy Court will have sole and exclusive jurisdiction to determine whether a Cause of Action is colorable and, only to the extend legally permissible, will have jurisdiction to adjudicate the underlying colorable Cause of Action. H. Protections against Discriminatory Treatment Consistent with section 525 of the Bankruptcy Code and the Supremacy Clause of the U.S. Constitution, all Entities, including Governmental Units, shall not discriminate against the Reorganized Debtors or deny, revoke, suspend, or refuse to renew a license, permit, charter, franchise, or other similar grant to, condition such a grant to, discriminate with respect to such a grant against, the Reorganized Debtors, or another Entity with whom the Reorganized Debtors have been associated, solely because each Debtor has been a debtor under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, has been insolvent before the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases (or during the Chapter 11 Cases but before the Debtors are granted or denied a discharge), or has not paid a debt that is dischargeable in the Chapter 11 Cases.

55 I. Waiver of Statutory Limitation on Releases Each of the Releasing Parties in each of the releases contained above expressly acknowledges that although ordinarily a general release may not extend to Claims which the Releasing Party does not know or suspect to exist in its favor, which if known by it may have materially affected its settlement with the party released, they have carefully considered and taken into account in determining to enter into the above releases the possible existence of such unknown losses or claims. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Releasing Party expressly waives any and all rights conferred upon it by any statute or rule of law which provides that a release does not extend to claims which the claimant does not know or suspect to exist in its favor at the time of providing the release, which if known by it may have materially affected its settlement with the released party. The releases contained in this Plan are effective regardless of whether those released matters are presently known, unknown, suspected or unsuspected, foreseen or unforeseen. J. Reimbursement or Contribution If the Bankruptcy Court disallows a Claim for reimbursement or contribution of an Entity pursuant to section 502(e)(1)(B) of the Bankruptcy Code, then to the extent that such Claim is contingent as of the time of allowance or disallowance, such Claim shall be forever disallowed and expunged notwithstanding section 502(j) of the Bankruptcy Code, unless prior to the Confirmation Date: (1) such Claim has been adjudicated as non-contingent or (2) the relevant Holder of a Claim has Filed a non-contingent Proof of Claim on account of such Claim and a Final Order has been entered prior to the Confirmation Date determining such Claim as no longer contingent. K. Integral Part of Plan Each of the provisions set forth in this Plan with respect to the settlement, release, discharge, exculpation, injunction, indemnification and insurance of, for or with respect to Claims and/or Causes of Action are an integral part of this Plan and essential to its implementation. Accordingly, each Entity that is a beneficiary of such provision shall have the right to independently seek to enforce such provision and such provision may not be amended, modified, or waived after the Effective Date without the prior written consent of such beneficiary.

Exhibit F - 1 1. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Debtors’ obligations to the DIP Lenders and the Prepetition Secured Parties, and the liens, security interests and superpriority claims granted by [this / the Interim Order or Final Order] or under the Prepetition Revolving ABL Credit Agreement, Prepetition Indenture, and the DIP Documents, and the payment of all such obligations, shall be subject and subordinate in all respects to payment of the following fees and expenses: (a) the payment of unpaid fees required to be paid to the Clerk of the Court and to the U.S. Trustee pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1930(a); (b) fees and expenses up to $50,000 incurred by a trustee under section 726(b) of the Bankruptcy Code; (c) Allowed Professional Fees (as defined below) of the Estate Professionals (as defined below) prior to the delivery by the DIP Lenders of a Carve-Out Trigger Notice (defined below) (the amounts set forth in this clause (c) being the “Pre Carve-Out Trigger Notice Cap”); and (d) the Allowed Professional Fees of Debtor Professionals in an aggregate amount not to exceed $2,000,000 incurred on or after the later of (A) the first business day following delivery by the DIP Lenders of the Carve-Out Trigger Notice or (B) determination of the Court that a Postpetition Default has occurred, after a hearing thereon (the amounts set forth in this clause (d) being the “Post Carve-Out Trigger Notice Cap” and together with the Pre Carve-Out Trigger Notice Cap and the amounts set forth in clauses (a) and (b), the “Carve-Out Cap”); (the foregoing clauses (a) through (d), collectively, the “Carve-Out”). a. As used in this paragraph, persons or firms retained by (x) the Debtors pursuant to section 327, 328, or 363 of the Bankruptcy Code are referred to as “Debtor Professionals”), and (y) any official committee appointed in these Chapter 11 Cases pursuant to section 1102 of the Bankruptcy Code (a “Committee”) are referred to as “Committee Professionals” and, together with the Debtor Professionals, the “Estate Professionals”. b. The term “Allowed Professional Fees” means fees and expenses incurred prior to the applicable event set forth in this paragraph, to the extent allowed at any time, whether by interim order, procedural order, or otherwise, but subject to final allowance by the Court, without regard to whether such fees and expenses are provided for in any Approved Budget or were invoiced after the Carve-Out Trigger Notice Date. To the extent that professional fees and expenses of the Estate Professionals have been incurred by the Debtors or the Creditors’ Committee at any time before or on the first business day after delivery by the DIP Lenders of a Carve-Out Trigger Notice but have not yet been allowed by the Court, such professional fees and expenses of the Estate Professionals shall constitute Allowed Professional Fees benefiting from the Carve-Out upon their allowance by the Court, whether by interim or final compensation order, and the Carve-Out Account shall be funded to include such professional fees and expenses as set forth herein. c. “Carve-Out Trigger Notice” means a written notice delivered by email (or other electronic means) by the DIP Lenders to the Debtors, lead bankruptcy counsel for the Debtors, counsel to the Prepetition Notes Trustee, counsel to the Prepetition Revolving ABL Agent, the U.S. Trustee, and counsel to any Committee stating that the Post-Carve-Out Trigger Notice Cap has been invoked, which notice may be delivered following the occurrence and during the continued existence of a

Exhibit F - 2 Postpetition Default (as defined herein) under the terms of this [Interim / Final] Order. d. “Carve-Out Trigger Notice Date” means the day on which a Carve-Out Trigger Notice is received by the Debtors. e. “Carve-Out Account” means a separate segregated account not subject to the control of the Trustee or any of the DIP Lenders or Prepetition Secured Parties. 2. Within five (5) business days of the initial funding of the DIP Loans, the Debtors shall fund into a Carve-Out Account for Debtor Professionals in an amount equal to the total budgeted Debtor Professionals’ fees for the first two (2) weeks set forth in the Approved Budget. Thereafter, the Debtors may use such funds held in the Carve-Out Accounts to pay Debtor Professional fees as they become allowed and payable pursuant to interim or final orders of the Court; provided that the Debtors’ obligations to pay the Allowed Professional Fees of the Debtor Professionals shall not be limited or deemed limited to funds held in the Carve-Out Account. 3. On the Carve-Out Trigger Notice Date, the Carve-Out Trigger Notice shall constitute a demand to the Debtors to fund the Carve-Out Account in cash in an amount equal to the Carve-Out Cap, and immediately following receipt of a Carve-Out Trigger Notice, and prior to the payment of any Obligations, the Debtors shall be required to deposit into the Carve-Out Account cash in an amount equal to the difference between the applicable Carve-Out Cap (which shall be determined by the applicable Debtor Professionals in their reasonable discretion based on the amount of then-unpaid Allowed Professional Fees, and may include a reasonable estimate of the applicable Debtor Professionals’ then-incurred fees and expenses not yet allowed) and the balance held in the applicable Carve-Out Account as of the Carve-Out Trigger Notice Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the DIP Documents, following delivery of a Carve-Out Trigger Notice, the DIP Lenders shall not sweep or foreclose on cash (including cash received as a result of the sale or other disposition of any assets) of the Debtors until the Carve-Out Account has been fully funded as required herein in an amount equal to all obligations benefitting from the Carve-Out. Any payment or reimbursement made to any Debtor Professional in respect of any Allowed Professional Fees prior to the delivery of the Carve-Out Trigger Notice shall not reduce the Carve-Out. 4. The amounts in the Carve-Out Account shall be available only to satisfy Allowed Professional Fees and other amounts included in the Carve-Out until such amounts are paid in full. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) the failure of the Carve-Out Account to satisfy in full the amount set forth in the Carve-Out shall not affect the priority of the Carve-Out and (ii) in no way shall the Carve-Out, the Carve-Out Account, or any Approved Budget be construed as a cap or limitation on the amount of the Allowed Professional Fees due and payable by the Debtors or that may be allowed by the Bankruptcy Court at any time (whether by interim order, final order, or otherwise). All funds in the Carve-Out Account shall be used first to pay all obligations benefitting from the Pre Carve-Out Trigger Notice Cap, until paid in full, and then the obligations benefitting from the Post Carve-Out Trigger Notice Cap; provided that the amount in the Carve-Out Account shall be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis for Allowed Professional

GRAPHIC

Exhibit F - 3 Fees that are paid after the delivery of the Carve-Out Trigger Notice, and the Carve-Out Account shall not be replenished for such amounts so paid. 5. Payments from the Carve-Out shall be subject to any terms and conditions of the engagement agreements and appurtenant orders for the employment of each Estate Professional. The Debtors shall be permitted to pay compensation and reimbursement of expenses incurred prior to the occurrence of a Postpetition Default or delivery of a Default Notice to the extent allowed and payable under sections 330 and 331 of the Bankruptcy Code. 6. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or elsewhere, the Carve-Out shall be senior to all claims and liens, including liens securing the DIP Facility as well as any adequate protection liens and claims described herein, and the DIP Collateral shall exclude the Carve-Out Account; provided that if, after paying all amounts set forth in the definition of Carve-Out, the Carve-Out Account(s) have not been reduced to zero, all remaining funds shall be distributed (a) first, to DIP Lenders on account of the DIP Loans, unless the DIP Loans have been indefeasibly Paid in Full; (c) second, to the Prepetition Secured Notes Parties on account of the Prepetition Notes Obligations; and (d) third, to the Debtors. 7. The DIP Lenders and the Prepetition Secured Parties shall not be responsible for the direct payment or reimbursement of any fees or expenses of any Estate Professionals incurred in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases or any Successor Case under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code, regardless of whether payment of such fees or disbursement has been allowed by the Bankruptcy Court. Nothing in this [Interim / Final] Order or otherwise shall be construed to obligate any of the DIP Lenders or the Prepetition Secured Parties in any way to pay compensation to or reimburse expenses of any Estate Professional, or to guarantee that the Debtors have sufficient funds to pay such compensation or expense reimbursement.
