(a)            Effective as of the Waiver Effective Date (as hereinafter defined), each Agent and each Consenting Lender agrees that until the expiration or termination of the Waiver Period (as defined below), it (i) temporarily waives its right to exercise its default-related rights and remedies under the Transaction Documents, as modified hereby, or applicable Law solely with respect to any of the Specified Defaults, (ii) temporarily waives its right to terminate the Revolving Commitments and cause the Amortization Date to occur under the Transaction Documents, as modified hereby, solely as a result of the Specified Defaults, (iii) temporarily waives any right to accelerate the Borrower Obligations or make any demand for payment under the Transaction Documents, as modified hereby, solely as a result of the Specified Defaults, (iv) temporarily waives its right to require the Borrower to pay interest at the Default Rate under the Credit Agreement (including pursuant to Sections 1.5 and 1.7 thereof), as modified hereby, solely as a result of the Specified Defaults and (v) temporarily waives its right under the Transaction Documents to deliver the Notices of Exclusive Control or notify the Obligors of any interest in the Pool Receivables and other Collateral, solely as a result of the Specified Defaults; provided, however, that:

(ii)            nothing herein shall restrict, impair or otherwise affect any Secured Party’s rights and remedies under any agreement containing subordination provisions in favor of any or all of the Secured Parties (including, without limitation, any rights or remedies available to the Secured Parties as a result of the occurrence or continuation of the Specified Defaults) or amend or modify any provision thereof; and

(iii)            nothing herein shall restrict, impair or otherwise affect any Secured Party’s rights or remedies with respect to any Potential Amortization Event or Amortization Event that is not a Specified Default.

 

(b)            As used herein, the term “Waiver Period” shall mean the period beginning on the Waiver Effective Date and ending on the earliest to occur of (the occurrence of clause (i), (ii) or (iii), a “Termination Event”): (i) the occurrence of any Amortization Event under subsection 7.1(i) of the Credit Agreement (a “Bankruptcy Default”), (ii) the date on which the Administrative Agent or Requisite Lenders delivers to the Borrower a notice terminating the Waiver Period, which notice may be delivered at any time upon or after the occurrence of any Waiver Default (as hereinafter defined), and (iii) April 2, 2026, which date may be extended by written agreement of the Requisite Lenders (email of counsel to the Requisite Lenders being sufficient). As used herein, the term “Waiver Default” shall mean (A) the occurrence of any Amortization Event under Section 7.1 of the Credit Agreement other than the Specified Defaults, (B) termination or expiration of any other forbearance or waiver granted by the lenders in respect of the Senior Loan Agreement or any other Material Indebtedness of the Parent Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case, with respect to any Specified Default (collectively, the “Other Waivers”), and (C) the repudiation or assertion of any defense by the Borrower or the Investment Manager with respect to this Agreement or any Transaction Document, as each has been modified hereby.

The Borrower and the Secured Parties agree that any or all of the Secured Parties may at any time thereafter proceed to exercise any and all of their respective rights and remedies under any or all of the Credit Agreement, any other Transaction Document, or applicable law, including, without limitation, their respective rights and remedies with respect to the Specified Defaults. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon the occurrence of a Termination Event, the Secured Parties may, in their sole discretion and without the requirement of any demand, presentment, protest, or notice of any kind, (i) commence any legal or other action to collect on any or all of the Borrower Obligations from the Borrower and/or any Collateral, (ii) foreclose or otherwise realize on any or all of the Collateral and/or, as applicable, setoff or apply to the payment of any or all of the Borrower Obligations and (iii) take any other enforcement action or otherwise exercise any or all rights and remedies provided for by any or all of the Credit Agreement, any other Transaction Document or applicable law, all of which rights and remedies are fully reserved by the Secured Parties.

 

(d)            The Borrower and the Investment Manager each acknowledges that the Secured Parties have not made any assurances concerning (i) any possibility of an extension of the Waiver Period, (ii) the manner in which or whether the Specified Defaults may be resolved or (iii) any additional forbearance, waiver, restructuring, or other accommodations.

 

(e)            The parties hereto agree that the running of all statutes of limitation or doctrine of laches applicable to all claims or causes of action that the Secured Parties may be entitled to take or bring in order to enforce their respective rights and remedies against the Borrower or the Investment Manager is, to the fullest extent permitted by law, tolled and suspended during the Waiver Period.

 

3

 

 

(f)             The Borrower and the Investment Manager each acknowledges and agrees that any financial accommodation, if any, which any Secured Party makes on or after the Waiver Effective Date has been made by such party in reliance upon, and is consideration for, among other things, the general releases and indemnities contained in Section 5 hereof and the other covenants, agreements, representations and warranties of the Borrower and the Investment Manager hereunder.

 

SECTION 4.       Weekly Reports. During the Waiver Period, each Trinseo Party, upon the reasonable request of the Structuring Advisor, shall have it and its advisors provide the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and their advisors weekly updates (which may occur via email or by conference call at a mutually acceptable time during regular business hours) on the status of negotiations and discussions with the Trinseo Party’s various creditor constituencies regarding a potential restructuring and any waivers, amendments or forbearances related thereto being discussed by such Trinseo Party with any of its creditor constituencies; provided that such updates shall not be required to disclose or include any information (x) that is subject to any attorney-client privilege or other legal privilege, (y) that any Trinseo Party determines in good faith would be reasonably likely to contravene any applicable law or result in a breach of confidentiality obligations to third parties, or (z) that relates to the strategy, negotiating positions or similar matters relating to the relationship of any Trinseo Party and/or any of its respective Affiliates, on the one hand, with the Lenders and/or any of its respective Affiliates, on the other hand. The failure by any Trinseo Party to comply with this Section 4 for two consecutive weeks shall result in an immediate Amortization Event.

 

SECTION 5.       General Release; Indemnity.

 

(a)            In consideration of, among other things, the Secured Parties’ execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Borrower and the Investment Manager, each on behalf of itself and its respective agents, representatives, officers, directors, advisors, employees, subsidiaries, affiliates, successors and assigns (collectively, “Releasors”), hereby forever agrees and covenants not to sue or prosecute against any Releasee (as hereinafter defined) and hereby forever waives, releases and discharges each Releasee from any and all claims (including, without limitation, crossclaims, counterclaims, rights of set-off and recoupment), actions, causes of action, suits, debts, accounts, interests, liens, promises, warranties, damages and consequential damages, demands, agreements, bonds, bills, specialties, covenants, controversies, variances, trespasses, judgments, executions, costs, expenses or claims whatsoever, that such Releasor now has or hereafter may have, of whatsoever nature and kind, whether known or unknown, whether now existing or hereafter arising, whether arising at law or in equity (collectively, the “Claims”), against any or all of the Secured Parties and their respective affiliates, subsidiaries, shareholders and “controlling persons” (within the meaning of the federal securities laws), and each and all of the officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, advisors and other representatives of each of the foregoing (collectively, the “Releasees”), based in whole or in part on facts, whether or not now known, existing on or before the Waiver Effective Date, that relate to, arise out of or otherwise are in connection with any or all of the Transaction Documents or the transactions thereunder. In entering into this Agreement, the Borrower and the Investment Manager consulted with, and has been represented by, legal counsel and expressly disclaims any reliance on any representations, acts or omissions by any of the Releasees and hereby agrees and acknowledges that the validity and effectiveness of the releases set forth above do not depend in any way on any such representations, acts and/or omissions or the accuracy, completeness or validity thereof. The provisions of this Section 5 shall survive the termination of this Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, and payment in full of the Borrower Obligations.

 

4

 

 

(b)            Each of the Borrower and the Investment Manager, on behalf of itself and its respective successors, assigns, and other legal representatives, hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably, covenants and agrees with and in favor of each Releasee that it will not sue (at law, in equity, in any regulatory proceeding or otherwise) any Releasee on the basis of any Claim released, remised and discharged by the Borrower or the Investment Manager pursuant to Section 5(a) hereof. If the Borrower, the Investment Manager or any of its successors, assigns or other legal representatives violates the foregoing covenant, the Borrower and the Investment Manager, each for itself and its successors, assigns and legal representatives, agrees to pay, in addition to such other damages as any Releasee may sustain as a result of such violation, all attorneys’ fees and costs incurred by any Releasee as a result of such violation.
