In the event of any election to reduce the Optimal CapEx to the Reduced Commitment for any fiscal quarter, an amount equal to the difference between the Optimal CapEx and the Reduced Commitment for such fiscal quarter shall be added to the Reorganization Company’s capital expenditure commitment for the succeeding fiscal quarter and become part of the Optimal CapEx for such succeeding fiscal quarter.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, capital expenditures reflected in the Interim Business Plan for the third and fourth calendar quarters of 2013 with respect to [*] shall not be included in Optimal CapEx for such quarters unless the Reorganization Company has elected to include such amounts in the Optimal CapEx for any such quarter by written notice provided to the Sponsor at least forty-five (45) days prior to the beginning of such quarters, in which case the full amount of capital expenditures for such quarters shall be included in Optimal CapEx for such quarters.

In furtherance of and without limiting the generality of the provisions of Article 12.2, the Trustees shall cause Both Reorganization Companies, and to cause Both Reorganization Companies to cause their Related Parties, not to, without the prior written consent of the Sponsor (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed):

similar provision, a call or claim on a substantial portion of Both Reorganization Companies’ production capacity, a liquidated damages provision, a penalty provision triggered by a change of control, or a restriction on the conduct of business; and

(y)

any act for which Sponsor determines that providing, withholding or conditioning such consent would be a violation of any applicable antitrust Law.

If the Trustees desire to take an action that would be prohibited without the consent of the Sponsor pursuant to this Article 12, or to refrain from taking an action where the failure to take such action requires the consent of the Sponsor pursuant to this Article 12, the Trustees may request such consent by contacting one of the designees of the Sponsor to be appointed by the Sponsor and each of whom will be identified to the Trustees in writing promptly following the Execution Date (each, a “Sponsor Designee”).

4	The Sponsor and the Trustees acknowledge that the provisions of Articles 12.2 and 12.3 shall not in any way restrict the exercise by the Trustees of their legally required management and disposal powers or the Trustees’ ability to prepare and execute the reorganization plan.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Trustees take any action or cause any action to be taken that otherwise would be prohibited by the provisions of Article 12.2 or 12.3 without the consent of the Sponsor (such consent not to have been unreasonably withheld or delayed), or omit to take an action or omit to cause an action to be taken that would otherwise be required by the provisions of Article 12.2 other than any action or omission to act with respect to which consent was not required to be obtained as a result of the operation of Article 12.3(y), such action or omission shall give rise to a deemed failure of a condition precedent under Article 20.1(2) to the Sponsor’s obligation to close and the right of the Sponsor to cancel this Agreement under Article 25.1(1), to the extent the Sponsor reasonably determines that such action or omission has, individually or in the aggregate with other such acts or omissions, materially and adversely affected the business (including relationships with customers, suppliers, lenders, joint venture and other strategic partners), operations, properties, financial condition, results of operations, assets or liabilities of the Both Reorganization Companies and their Related Companies, taken as a whole, or the value of any of the foregoing to the Sponsor.

Article 17 Operations of Both Reorganization Companies after the Closing

The Trustees shall, promptly after the Closing, apply to Both Companies’ Courts for appointment as business trustee of one person designated by the Sponsor as a candidate for business trustee for Both Reorganization Companies (the business trustee appointed as a result of that application, in this Agreement, the “Business Trustee”), and upon such appointment, [*]. The Business Trustee may be required to execute a customary confidentiality agreement containing terms and conditions similar to those set forth in Article 26.

2	After the appointment of the Business Trustee,

(1)

the Trustee shall make decisions for Both Reorganization Companies in relation to acts that need to be carried out in relation to Both Companies’ Reorganization Proceedings (including the filing of a petition for an order of completion of Both Companies’ Reorganization Proceedings and any other matters whatsoever relating to carrying out reorganization proceedings) and

(2)

the Business Trustee shall make decisions (except for such decisions provided for in Item (1) above) in relation to the operation of business of Both Reorganization Companies and their Related Companies.

Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, after the appointment of the Business Trustee, the Sponsor acknowledges that the Business Trustee has a duty to consult with the Trustee within a reasonable period before executing any such matter with respect to decisions in relation to the operation of business of Both Reorganization Companies and their Related Companies provided for in Item (2) of the preceding paragraph to the extent such decisions are reasonably expected to have a material and adverse impact on the execution of Both Companies’ Reorganization Plans.

Notwithstanding Paragraph 2, after the Business Trustee has been appointed, the Trustee shall make the decisions for Both Reorganization Companies provided for in Paragraph 2(1) upon consultation with the Sponsor and the Business Trustee within a reasonable period before executing any such matter; provided that in preparing and submitting proposals for amendments to Both Companies’ Reorganization Plans, the Trustee shall do so only after prior agreement with the Sponsor on their details if such amendment would have a significant effect on Both Reorganization Companies or the Sponsor.

5	The Sponsor acknowledges that the Business Trustee has a duty:

(1)

to sufficiently understand this Agreement and that the Business Trustee is bound to this Agreement and cannot engage in any act that would be contrary to the spirit of this Agreement; and

(2)

except as provided in Article 17.8 below, with respect to (i) matters that would likely have a material impact on the operations or assets of Both Reorganization Companies and their Related Companies, taken as a whole, and (ii) transfer to a third party of material assets of Both Reorganization Companies and their Related Companies, to the extent such matters or transfers would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect execution of Both Companies’ Reorganization Plans, to obtain the consent of the Trustee (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) before carrying out any such matter or transfer.

The Sponsor shall make efforts as much as possible to a reasonable extent to carry out comprehensive supervision so that the Business Trustee shall not perform its duties in violation of Law or the spirit of this Agreement (including, without limitation, act in a manner that infringes the powers of the Trustee (which includes both Reorganization Companies) under Law or this Agreement, act in a manner that exceeds or abuses the Business Trustee’s powers under Law or this Agreement, and act without the consent from the Trustee provided for in the preceding paragraph) and shall not perform its duties in a significantly unreasonable way.

7	The Business Trustee is not to receive any remuneration from Both Reorganization Companies for services in his or her capacity as the Business Trustee.

The Sponsor and the Trustees acknowledge that the transition of each of the Both Reorganization Companies’ businesses to the cost plus model will involve the implementation of a number of reasonable acts, including those summarized on Attachment 7-2 hereto, which reasonable acts are hereby approved by the Trustees.

In addition, the Sponsor and the Trustees acknowledge that in the operation of the businesses of Both Reorganization Companies and their Related Companies, the Business Trustee will need to cause Both Reorganization Companies and their Related Companies to implement a wide variety of acts, including in the areas set forth on Attachment 17.8A hereto, and that it is the intent of the Sponsor and the Trustees to provide the greatest flexibility possible in the exercise of business judgment by the Business Trustee with respect to such matters consistent with the need of the Trustee and Both Reorganization Courts to exercise appropriate controls and oversight to ensure execution of Both Companies’ Reorganization Plans. In furtherance of the foregoing, prior to the Closing, the Trustees agree to seek and make efforts as much as possible to a reasonable extent to obtain an amendment to Section 7 of the orders of commencement of the Both Companies’ Corporate Reorganization Cases by Both Companies’ Courts entered on March 23, 2012 in the form attached hereto as Attachment 17.8B as such Attachment may be modified from time to time at the direction of Both Companies’ Courts following consultation among the Trustees, Both Companies’ Courts and the Sponsor (which consultations shall continue following the Closing Date with a view towards providing appropriate flexibility for the operation of Both Reorganization Companies’ businesses) (and with corresponding amendments to, and consultation with respect to, the order of commencement of the Akita Reorganization Company’s Reorganization Case).

The Trustees agree that the categories of actions that are the subject of Section 7 of the orders of commencement of the Both Companies’ Corporate Reorganization Cases by Both Companies’ Courts entered on March 23, 2012, as the same may be amended from time to time, which do not require Both Reorganization Courts’ approval (due to an exclusion or other exception contained in such orders) shall not require consent from the Trustee.

Following the Closing, it is expected that the businesses of Both Reorganization Companies will require ongoing substantial levels of capital expenditures and that such expenditures will require the use of a substantial portion of Both Reorganization Companies’ available cash including existing cash balances, the proceeds from borrowings available under the Sponsor CapEx Financing or Third Party CapEx Financing and cash flow from operations. These ongoing investments are essential to preserve the viability and cost-competitiveness of the businesses and to insure the ability of the businesses to generate cash flows under the cost plus model sufficient to provide for the later scheduled Installment Payments. At the same time, Both Reorganization Companies’ businesses must be managed to provide for Installment Payments. In making determinations as to the appropriate levels of capital expenditures for the businesses in light of these competing considerations, the Sponsor and the Trustee acknowledge that it will be necessary and appropriate to monitor such items as cash balances, capital expenditure commitments, available funding (third-party or otherwise) and projected cash flows, relative to requirements for upcoming scheduled Installment Payments, and that in circumstances creating uncertainty regarding Both Reorganization Companies’ ability to fund the upcoming Installment Payment, the Trustee or Both Companies’ Courts may request appropriate limitations on such capital expenditures.

9 The Trustees acknowledge that the Business Trustee and Both Reorganization Companies shall make efforts as much as possible to a reasonable extent in achieving the goals of: (x)

having minimum consolidated cash and cash equivalents (excluding Rexchip) of 700 oku Yen, and (y) [*].
