•

The Facility Agreement was amended and restated as described below and in the form attached to the 2017 GARA. The amendments to the Facility Agreement: defer certain financial covenants until the measurement period ending December 31, 2018; extend to the measurement period ending December 31, 2019 the date through which Equity Cure Contributions can be made; eliminate the requirement for us to redeem in full our 8% Notes; defer mandatory prepayments from qualifying equity raises until January 1, 2020; and revise the definition of the DSRA Required Balance after October 30, 2017 to mean an amount equal to the Debt Service due and payable on the next Repayment Date.

•

We agreed to raise at least $159 million in equity (the “2017 Equity Raise”), which includes the $12 million previously raised from Terrapin Opportunity Fund LP in January 2017, in two stages. By June 30, 2017, we were required to raise an amount to allow us to pay outstanding restructuring fees, additional insurance premiums to BPIFAE (formerly COFACE) and debt service due under the Facility Agreement on June 30, 2017 (the “Stage I Equity Raise”). The 2017 GARA required Thermo to fund or backstop the Stage I Equity Raise, which equaled approximately $33 million. This amount was raised pursuant to the Common Stock Purchase Agreement described below. The remainder (the “Stage II Equity Raise”) must be completed by October 30, 2017. We are required to deposit 80% of any equity proceeds raised through December 31, 2019 (including the 2017 Equity Raise) into a restricted account that may only be used to pay obligations under the Facility Agreement.

•	We agreed not to incur capital expenditures in connection with our spectrum rights in excess of the lesser of (A) $20 million and (B) 20% of the proceeds of the aggregate of any equity we raise from January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2019.

•	We paid an amendment fee to the agent and lenders in the aggregate amount of $255,000 and accelerated payment of the restructuring fee and insurance premium of approximately $21 million that was previously due on December 31, 2017.

No Lien imposed under the Code or ERISA on the assets of any Obligor or any ERISA Affiliate exists or is likely to arise on account of any Pension Plan. No Obligor or ERISA Affiliate has any liability under Section 4069 or 4212(c) of ERISA.
