(b)    All Liens with respect to the Collateral securing any First Lien Priority Debt shall be and remain senior in all respects and prior to all Liens with respect to the Collateral securing any Second Lien Debt, in each case, for all purposes, whether or not such Liens securing any First Lien Priority Debt are subordinated to any Lien securing any other obligation of any Grantor or any other person (but only to the extent that such subordination is permitted pursuant to the terms of the First Lien Credit Agreement and the Second Lien Documents, or as contemplated in Section 6.2).

2.2    Prohibition on Contesting Liens or Claims. Each of Second Lien Agent and First Lien Agent agrees that it will not (and hereby waives any right to), directly or indirectly, contest, or support any other person in contesting, in any proceeding (including any Insolvency Proceeding), (a) the extent, validity, attachment, perfection, priority, or enforceability of a Lien held by or on behalf of any of the First Lien Claimholders in the First Lien Collateral (or the extent, validity, allowability, or enforceability of any First Lien Debt secured thereby or purported to be secured thereby) or by or on behalf of any of the Second Lien Claimholders in the Second Lien Collateral (or the extent, validity, allowability, or enforceability of any Second Lien Debt secured thereby or purported to be secured thereby), as the case may be, or the provisions of this Agreement; provided, that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of First Lien Agent, any other First Lien Claimholder, Second Lien Agent, or any Permitted Additional Second Lien Obligations Representative, or any other Second Lien Claimholder to enforce the terms of this Agreement, including the provisions of this Agreement relating to the priority of the Liens securing the First Lien Debt and the Second Lien Debt as provided in Sections 2.1 and 3.

2.3    New Liens.

(a)    So long as the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt has not occurred, and so long as no Insolvency Proceeding has been commenced by or against any Grantor, the parties hereto agree that no Grantor shall:

(i)    grant or permit any additional Liens on any asset (other than any escrow accounts, amount or financial assets credited thereto, or any other assets constituting “Escrow Collateral”, in each case, under the Escrow Agreement (collectively, the “Second Lien Escrow Collateral”) to secure any Second Lien Debt unless such Grantor gives First Lien Agent at least 5 Business Days prior written notice thereof and unless such notice also offers to grant a Lien on such asset to secure the First Lien Debt concurrently with the grant of a Lien thereon in favor of Second Lien Agent; or

(ii)    grant or permit any additional Liens on any asset (other than any Second Lien Excluded Equity Interests) to secure any First Lien Debt unless such Grantor gives Second Lien Agent at least 5 Business Days prior written notice thereof and unless such notice also offers to grant a Lien on such asset to secure the Second Lien Debt concurrently with the grant of a Lien thereon in favor of First Lien Agent.

(b)    To the extent that the foregoing provisions are not complied with for any reason, without limiting any other rights and remedies available to First Lien Agent or the other First Lien Claimholders, Second Lien Agent agrees that any amounts received by or distributed to any of them pursuant to or as a result of Liens granted in contravention of this Section 2.3 shall be subject to Section 4.2. To the extent that the foregoing provisions are not complied with for any reason, without limiting any other rights and remedies available to Second Lien Agent or the other Second Lien Claimholders, First Lien Agent agrees that any amounts received by or distributed to any of them pursuant to or as a result of Liens granted in contravention of this Section 2.3 shall be subject to Section 4.2.

(a)    The parties hereto agree that it is their intention that the First Lien Collateral and the Second Lien Collateral be identical (other than with respect to Second Lien Excluded Equity Interests and the Second Lien Escrow Collateral). In furtherance of the foregoing and of Section 9.8, the parties hereto agree, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement:

(i)    upon request by First Lien Agent or Second Lien Agent, to cooperate in good faith (and to direct their counsel to cooperate in good faith) from time to time in order to determine the specific items included in the First Lien Collateral and the Second Lien Collateral and the steps taken or to be taken to perfect their respective Liens thereon and the identity of the respective parties obligated under the First Lien Documents and the Second Lien Documents with respect thereto; and

(ii)    that the First Lien Collateral Documents and Second Lien Collateral Documents (other than the Escrow Agreement) and guarantees for the First Lien Debt and the Second Lien Debt, shall be, in all material respects, substantively the same forms of documents other than with respect to the first lien and the second lien nature thereof and any variations necessary to reflect differing rights, duties, or powers, if any, of First Lien Agent and Second Lien Agent as provided in the First Lien Credit Agreement and Second Lien Notes Indenture, respectively;

(b)    The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, each of the parties agrees that to the extent that First Lien Agent or Second Lien Agent obtains a Lien in an asset (of a type that is not included in the types of assets included in the Collateral as of the date hereof or which would not constitute Collateral without a grant of a security interest or lien separate from the First Lien Documents or Second Lien Documents, as applicable, as in effect immediately prior to obtaining such Lien on such asset) which the other party to this Agreement elects not to obtain after receiving prior written notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.3, the Collateral securing the First Lien Debt and the Second Lien Debt will not be identical, and the provisions of the documents, agreements and instruments evidencing such Liens also will not be substantively similar, and any such difference in the scope or extent of perfection with respect to the Collateral resulting therefrom are hereby expressly permitted by this Agreement.

3.1    Standstill. Until the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt has occurred, whether or not any Insolvency Proceeding has been commenced by or against any Grantor, Second Lien Agent, each Permitted Additional Second Lien Obligations Representative, and the other Second Lien Claimholders will not, except to the extent expressly permitted by Section 3.3 or Section 6:

(a)    exercise or seek to exercise any rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral (including taking any Enforcement Action with respect to any Collateral); provided, that (i) if a Second Lien Default has occurred and is continuing, Second Lien Agent may take Enforcement Actions after the expiration of the applicable Standstill Period (it being understood that if at any time after the delivery of a Standstill Notice that commences a Standstill Period, the Second Lien Default which gave rise to such Standstill Period is no longer continuing, no Second Lien Claimholder may take Enforcement Actions until the expiration of a new Standstill Period commenced by a new Standstill Notice relative to the occurrence of a new Second Lien Default that was not continuing as of the date of the delivery of the immediately prior Standstill Notice), and (ii) in no event shall any Second Lien Claimholder exercise any rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral (including taking any Enforcement Action) if, notwithstanding the expiration of any Standstill Period, First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder shall have commenced prior to the expiration of such Standstill Period (or thereafter but prior to the commencement of any Enforcement Action by Second Lien Agent with respect to all or any material portion of the Collateral) and be diligently pursuing in good faith an Enforcement Action with respect to all or any material portion of the Collateral, and (iii) prior to taking any Enforcement Action, or action to commence or petition for any Insolvency Proceeding after the end of any Standstill Period, Second Lien Agent shall give First Lien Agent not more than 20 Business Days and not less than 5 Business Days prior written notice of the intention of such Second Lien Claimholder to exercise such rights and remedies, including specifying the rights and remedies that it intends to exercise, which notice may be sent prior to the end of any then existing Standstill Period (provided that the failure to give such notice shall only affect Second Lien Agent’s right to commence an Enforcement Action but shall otherwise not affect Second Lien Agent’s other rights under this Agreement).

(b)    Without the prior written consent of the First Lien Agent, commence or join with any person (other than the First Lien Agent) in commencing, or filing a petition for, any Insolvency Proceeding against any Grantor; provided, that if a Second Lien Default has occurred and is continuing, the Second Lien Claimholders may commence or join with any person in commencing, or filing a petition for, any Insolvency Proceeding against any Grantor from and after the time that the Second Lien Agent is entitled to take Enforcement Actions under Section 3.1(a) (it being understood that if at any time after the delivery of a Standstill Notice that commences a Standstill Period, the Second Lien Default which gave rise to such Standstill Period is no longer continuing, no Second Lien Claimholder may commence or join with any person in commencing, or filing a petition for, any Insolvency Proceeding against any Grantor until the

expiration of a new Standstill Period commenced by a new Standstill Notice relative to the occurrence of a new Second Lien Default that was not continuing as of the date of the delivery of the immediately prior Standstill Notice);

(c)    contest, protest, or object to any Enforcement Action by First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder and no Second Lien Claimholder has the right to direct First Lien Agent to take any Enforcement Actions or take any other action under the First Lien Documents; and

(d)    object to (and waive any and all claims with respect to) the forbearance by First Lien Agent or the First Lien Claimholders from taking any Enforcement Action.

3.2    Exclusive Enforcement Rights. Until the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt has occurred, whether or not any Insolvency Proceeding has been commenced by or against any Grantor, but subject to the first proviso to Section 3.1(a), the first proviso to Section 3.1(b), Section 3.3, and Section 6, the First Lien Claimholders shall have the exclusive right to take Enforcement Actions with respect to the Collateral without any consultation with or the consent of any Second Lien Claimholder; provided, however, that the Liens of the Second Lien Agent shall attach to any proceeds (other than any proceeds applied to the First Lien Priority Debt) of any Collateral released or disposed of, subject to the relative priorities set forth in Section 2.1 and the application of proceeds set forth in Section 4.1. In connection with any Enforcement Action, the First Lien Claimholders may enforce the provisions of the First Lien Documents and exercise remedies thereunder, all in such order and in such manner as they may determine in the exercise of their sole discretion. Such exercise and enforcement shall include the rights of an agent appointed by them to Dispose of Collateral, to incur expenses in connection with such Disposition, and to exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured creditor under applicable law.

3.3    Second Lien Permitted Actions. Anything to the contrary in this Section 3 notwithstanding, any Second Lien Claimholder may:

(a)    if an Insolvency Proceeding has been commenced by or against any Second Lien Grantor, file a claim, proof of claim or statement of interest with respect to the Second Lien Debt;

(b)    take any action (not adverse to the priority status of the Liens on the Collateral securing the First Lien Priority Debt, or the rights of First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder to undertake Enforcement Actions) in order to create, prove, perfect, preserve or protect (but not enforce) its Lien in and to the Collateral;

(c)    file any necessary or appropriate responsive or defensive pleadings in opposition to any motion, claim, adversary proceeding, or other pleading made by any person objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of the claims or Liens of the Second Lien Claimholders, including any claims secured by the Collateral, if any;

(d)    vote on any plan of reorganization and make any filings, arguments, and motions that are, in each case, not in contravention of the provisions of this Agreement, with respect to the Second Lien Debt and the Collateral;

(e)    join (but not exercise any control with respect to) any judicial foreclosure proceeding or other judicial lien enforcement proceeding with respect to the Collateral initiated by First Lien Agent to the extent that any such action could not reasonably be expected, in any material respect, to restrain, hinder, limit, delay for any material period or otherwise interfere with an Enforcement Action by First Lien Agent

(it being understood that neither Second Lien Agent nor any Second Lien Claimholder shall be entitled to receive any proceeds thereof unless otherwise expressly permitted herein);

(f)    take any of the actions described in Section 3.6, including to file any pleadings, objections, motions or agreements that assert right or interests available to unsecured creditors of the Grantors arising under either any Insolvency Proceeding or applicable bankruptcy law, in each case, not directly or indirectly inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement; and

(g)    take Enforcement Actions after the expiration of the Standstill Period if and to the extent specifically permitted by Section 3.1(a) or commence or join with any person in commencing, or filing a petition for, any Insolvency Proceeding against any Grantor to the extent specifically permitted by Section 3.1(b).

3.4    Retention of Proceeds. Neither Second Lien Agent nor any other Second Lien Claimholder shall be permitted to retain any proceeds of Collateral in connection with any Enforcement Action unless and until the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt has occurred, and any such proceeds received or retained in any other circumstance will be subject to Section 4.2.

3.5    Non-Interference. Subject to any specific provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Second Lien Agent hereby:

(a)    agrees that Second Lien Agent and the other Second Lien Claimholders will not take any action that would restrain, hinder, limit, delay, or otherwise interfere with any Enforcement Action by First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder, or that is otherwise not prohibited hereunder, including any Disposition of the Collateral, whether by foreclosure or otherwise;

(b)    until the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt and subject to Section 3.7, waives any and all rights it or the Second Lien Claimholders may have as a junior lien creditor or otherwise to object to the manner in which First Lien Agent or the First Lien Claimholders seek to enforce or collect the First Lien Debt or the Liens securing the First Lien Debt granted in any of the Collateral, regardless of whether any action or failure to act by or on behalf of First Lien Agent or the First Lien Claimholders is adverse to the interest of the Second Lien Claimholders;

(c)    waives any and all rights it or any other Second Lien Claimholders may have to oppose, object to, or seek to restrict the First Lien Agent or the other First Lien Claimholders from exercising their rights to set off or credit bid their debt; and

(d)    acknowledges and agrees that no covenant, agreement or restriction contained in the Second Lien Collateral Documents or any other Second Lien Document (other than this Agreement) shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights and remedies of First Lien Agent or the First Lien Claimholders with respect to the Collateral as set forth in this Agreement and the First Lien Credit Documents (provided that the foregoing shall not be deemed a waiver of any Second Lien Default or any rights against the Second Lien Grantors).

3.6    Unsecured Creditor Remedies. Except as set forth in Sections 2.2, 3.1, 3.5, and 6, Second Lien Agent and the other Second Lien Claimholders may exercise rights and remedies as unsecured creditors generally against any Second Lien Grantor in accordance with the terms of the Second Lien Documents and applicable law so long as doing so is not, directly or indirectly, inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement; provided, that in the event that any Second Lien Claimholder becomes a judgment Lien

creditor in respect of Collateral as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor with respect to the Second Lien Debt, such judgment Lien shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement for all purposes as the other Liens securing the Second Lien Debt.

3.7    Commercially Reasonable Dispositions; Notice of Exercise. First Lien Agent agrees that any Enforcement Action by First Lien Agent with respect to Collateral subject to Article 9 of the UCC shall be conducted by First Lien Agent in a commercially reasonable manner. Second Lien Agent agrees that any Enforcement Action by Second Lien Agent with respect to Collateral subject to Article 9 of the UCC shall be conducted by Second Lien Agent in a commercially reasonable manner. First Lien Agent shall provide reasonable prior notice to Second Lien Agent of its initial material Enforcement Action. Second Lien Agent shall provide reasonable prior notice to First Lien Agent of its initial material Enforcement Action.

4.1    Application of Proceeds.

(a)    Regardless of whether an Insolvency Proceeding has been commenced by or against any Grantor, any Collateral, or proceeds thereof, received in connection with any Enforcement Action and, except as otherwise provided in Sections 6.5 and 6.9(c), any Collateral or proceeds thereof (or amounts distributed on account of a Lien in the Collateral or the proceeds thereof) received in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding involving a Grantor shall (at such time as such Collateral or proceeds or other amounts have been monetized) be applied:

(i)    first, to the payment in full in cash of costs and expenses of First Lien Agent in connection with such Enforcement Action or Insolvency Proceeding,

(ii)    second, to the to the payment in full in cash or cash collateralization of the First Lien Priority Debt in accordance with the First Lien Documents,

(iii)    third, to the payment in full in cash of costs and expenses of Second Lien Agent in connection with such Enforcement Action or Insolvency Proceeding in accordance with the Second Lien Documents,

(iv)    fourth, to the payment in full in cash or cash collateralization of the Second Lien Debt in accordance with the Second Lien Documents; and

(v)    fifth, to the payment in full in cash or cash collateralization of the Excess First Lien Debt in accordance with the First Lien Documents.

(b)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Enforcement Action with respect to the Collateral produces non-cash proceeds, then such non-cash proceeds shall be held by the First Lien Agent as additional collateral and, at such time as such non-cash proceeds are monetized, shall be applied in the order of application set forth above. First Lien Agent shall have no duty or obligation to Dispose of such non-cash proceeds and may Dispose of such non-cash proceeds or continue to hold such non-cash proceeds, in each case, in its discretion; provided, that any non-cash proceeds received by First Lien Agent (other than any non-cash proceeds received on account of any Second Lien Secured Claim) may be distributed by First Lien Agent to the First Lien Claimholders in full or partial satisfaction of First Lien Priority Debt in an amount determined by First Lien Agent acting at the direction of the requisite First Lien Claimholders or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct pursuant to a Final Order, including an order confirming a plan

of reorganization in an Insolvency Proceeding. No receipt and application of any Collateral, or proceeds thereof, received in the ordinary course of business (such Collateral, and the proceeds thereof, “Ordinary Course Collections”) shall constitute an Enforcement Action for purposes of this Agreement and all Ordinary Course Collections received by First Lien Agent may be applied, reversed, reapplied, credited, or reborrowed, in whole or in part, pursuant to the First Lien Credit Agreement.

(a)    Unless and until the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt has occurred (irrespective of whether any Insolvency Proceeding has been commenced by or against any Grantor), any Collateral, or proceeds thereof (including assets or proceeds subject to Liens referred to in the final sentence of Section 2.3 or the proviso in Section 3.6), received by Second Lien Agent or any Second Lien Claimholder (i) in connection with an Enforcement Action with respect to the Collateral by Second Lien Agent or any Second Lien Claimholder, or (ii) as a result of the collusion by Second Lien Agent or any Second Lien Claimholder with any Grantor in violating the rights of First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder (within the meaning of Section 9-332 of the UCC), shall be segregated and held in trust and promptly (and in no event later than two Business Days) paid over to First Lien Agent for the benefit of the First Lien Claimholders in the same form as received, with any necessary endorsements or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. First Lien Agent is hereby authorized to make any such endorsements as agent for the Second Lien Claimholders and this authorization is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable until the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt.

(b)    Unless and until the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt has occurred and except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 2.1, Section 6.5 or Section 6.9, if a Grantor (or any of its assets) is the subject of an Insolvency Proceeding and if any distribution from the Collateral or on account of a Lien in the Collateral is received by Second Lien Agent or any Second Lien Claimholder on account of their Second Lien Secured Claims in connection with such Insolvency Proceeding (unless such distribution is made under a confirmed plan of reorganization or other dispositive plan of such Grantor that is accepted by the requisite affirmative vote of all classes composed of the secured claims of the First Lien Claimholders under Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise provides for the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt), then such distribution shall be segregated and held in trust and promptly (and in no event later than two Business Days) paid over to First Lien Agent for the benefit of the First Lien Claimholders in the same form as received, with any necessary endorsements or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. For the avoidance of doubt, unless and until the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt has occurred, the Second Lien Agent shall be required to turnover to the First Lien Agent and the First Lien Agent shall be entitled to apply (or, in the case of non-cash proceeds, hold) in accordance with Section 4.1 any cash or non-cash distribution received by the Second Lien Claimholders from the Collateral or on account of a Lien in the Collateral on account of their Second Lien Secured Claims pursuant to a confirmed plan of reorganization of a Grantor (unless such distribution is made under a confirmed plan of reorganization or other dispositive plan of such Grantor that is accepted by the requisite affirmative vote of all classes composed of the secured claims of the First Lien Claimholders under Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise provides for the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt). For purposes of this subsection, the issue of whether the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt has occurred under a confirmed plan of reorganization or other dispositive plan shall be subject to a reasonable and good faith determination under the circumstances by the First Lien Agent, and shall be further subject to all rights and defenses of the Second Lien Agent or any Second Lien Claimholder with respect thereto. First Lien Agent is hereby authorized to make any such endorsements as agent for the Second Lien Claimholders and this authorization is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable until the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by the Second Lien Agent or any Second Lien Claimholder of the required payments of interest, principal and other amounts owed in respect of the Second Lien Debt so long as such receipt is not (a) the direct or indirect result of the exercise by Second Lien Agent or any Second Lien Claimholder of rights or remedies as a secured creditor (including set-off) with respect to Collateral or enforcement in contravention of this Agreement of any Lien on the Collateral held by any of them or (b) as a result of any Second Lien Claimholder's collusion with any Grantor in violating the rights of the First Lien Claimholders (within the meaning of Section 9-332 of the UCC or any similar applicable law) with respect to the Collateral.

4.3    No Subordination of the Relative Priority of Claims. The parties agree that the subordination of Liens set forth herein is with respect to the priority of their respective Liens in and to the Collateral only and shall not constitute a subordination of the Second Lien Debt to the First Lien Debt..

4.4    Non-Lienable Assets. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if any assets, licenses, rights, or privileges of any Grantor are incapable of being the subject of a Lien in favor of a secured party (including because of restrictions under applicable law, the nature of the rights or interests of such Grantor, or the absence of a consent to such Lien by a third party and irrespective of whether the applicable collateral documents attempt (or purport) to encumber such assets, licenses, rights, or privileges (the “Inalienable Interests”), then the First Lien Agent and the Second Lien Agent, agree that any distribution or recovery First Lien Agent, or the other First Lien Claimholders, or Second Lien Agent, or the other Second Lien Claimholders, may receive with respect to, or that is allocable to, the value of any such Inalienable Interests, or any proceeds thereof, whether received in their capacity as unsecured creditors or otherwise, shall be turned over and applied in accordance with Sections 4.1 and 4.2 as if such distribution or recovery were, or were on account of, Collateral or the proceeds of Collateral. Until the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt occurs, the Second Lien Agent, hereby appoints the First Lien Agent, and any officer or agent of the First Lien Agent, with full power of substitution, the attorney-in-fact of each Second Lien Claimholder for the limited purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Section 4.4 and taking any action and executing any instrument that the First Lien Agent may reasonably deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Section 4.4, which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest.

(a)    Until the Payment in Full of the First Lien Priority Debt occurs, First Lien Agent shall have the exclusive right to make determinations regarding the release or Disposition of any Collateral pursuant to the terms of the First Lien Documents or in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, in each case without any consultation with, consent of, or notice to Second Lien Agent, any Permitted Additional Second Lien Obligations Representative, or any Second Lien Claimholder.

(b)    If, in connection with an Enforcement Action by First Lien Agent as provided for in Section 3, First Lien Agent releases any of its Liens on any part of the Collateral (or such Liens are released by operation of law) or releases any Grantor from its obligations in respect of the First Lien Debt, then the Liens of Second Lien Agent on such Collateral, and the obligations of such Grantor in respect of the Second Lien Debt, shall be automatically, unconditionally, and simultaneously released; provided, that no release of the Liens of Second Lien Agent with respect to any Collateral will be deemed to have occurred (i) in connection with the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt or (ii) in a Refinancing of First Lien Priority Debt with secured indebtedness that is incurred contemporaneously with or promptly after the payment or discharge of such pre-existing First Lien Priority Debt and that constitutes First Lien Priority Debt.

(c)    If, in connection with any Disposition of any Collateral permitted under the terms of the First Lien Documents and the Second Lien Documents as in effect on the date hereof (or, if less restrictive to Grantors, on the date of such disposition), First Lien Agent releases any of its Liens on the portion of the Collateral that is the subject of such Disposition, or releases any Grantor from its obligations in respect of the First Lien Debt (if such Grantor is the subject of such Disposition), other than in connection with the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt, then the Liens of Second Lien Agent on such Collateral, and the obligations of such Grantor in respect of the Second Lien Debt, shall be automatically, unconditionally, and simultaneously released.

(d)    In the event of any private or public Disposition of all or any material portion of the Collateral by one or more Grantors with the consent of First Lien Agent after the occurrence and during the continuance of a First Lien Default (and prior to the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt), which Disposition is conducted by such Grantors with the consent of First Lien Agent in connection with good faith efforts by First Lien Agent to collect the First Lien Priority Debt through the Disposition of Collateral (any such Disposition, a “Default Disposition”), then the Liens of Second Lien Agent on such Collateral shall be automatically, unconditionally, and simultaneously released (and, if the Default Disposition includes Equity Interests in any Grantor, Second Lien Agent further agrees to release those Grantors whose Equity Interests are Disposed of from all of their obligations under the Second Lien Documents) so long as (i) First Lien Agent also releases its Liens on such Collateral (and, if the Default Disposition includes Equity Interests in any Grantor, First Lien Agent is also releasing those Grantors whose Equity Interests are Disposed of from all of their obligations under the First Lien Documents), (ii) the net cash proceeds of any such Default Disposition are applied in accordance with Section 4.1 (as if they were proceeds received in connection with an Enforcement Action), and (iii) with respect to Collateral that is subject to Article 9 of the UCC, the Grantors consummating such Default Disposition have conducted such Default Disposition in a commercially reasonable manner as if such Default Disposition were a disposition of collateral by a secured creditor in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC.

(e)    To the extent that the Liens of Second Lien Agent in and to any Collateral are to be released as provided in this Section 5.1,

(i)    Second Lien Agent shall promptly, upon the written request of First Lien Agent, execute and deliver such release documents and confirmations of the authorization to file UCC amendments, in each case, as First Lien Agent may reasonably require in connection with such Disposition to evidence and effectuate such release; provided, that any such release or UCC amendment by Second Lien Agent shall not extend to or otherwise affect any of the rights, if any, of Second Lien Agent to the proceeds from any such Disposition of any Collateral,

(ii)    from and after the time that the Liens of Second Lien Agent in and to the Collateral are released, Second Lien Agent shall be automatically and irrevocably deemed to have authorized First Lien Agent to file UCC amendments releasing the Collateral subject to such Disposition as to UCC financing statements between any Grantor and Second Lien Agent, any Permitted Additional Second Lien Obligations Representative, or any other Second Lien Claimholder to evidence such release, and

(iii)    in accordance with the provisions of applicable law, the Liens of Second Lien Agent shall automatically attach to any proceeds of any Collateral subject to any such Disposition to the extent not used to repay First Lien Priority Debt.

(f)    Until the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt occurs, Second Lien Agent hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints First Lien Agent and any officer or agent of First Lien Agent, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney‑in‑fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of Second Lien Agent, or such holder or in First Lien Agent’s own name, from time to time in First Lien Agent’s discretion, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Section 5.1, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments that may be necessary to accomplish the purposes of this Section 5.1, including any financing statement amendments (form UCC3) or any other endorsements or other instruments of transfer or release.

(g)    Until the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt occurs, to the extent that First Lien Agent or the First Lien Claimholders (i) have released any Lien on Collateral or any Grantor with respect to the First Lien Debt, and any such Liens or obligations are later reinstated, or (ii) obtain any new Liens from any Grantor or obtain a guaranty from any Grantor of the First Lien Debt, then Second Lien Agent, for itself and for the Second Lien Claimholders, shall be entitled to obtain a Lien on any such Collateral, subject to the terms (including the lien subordination provisions) of this Agreement, and a guaranty from such Grantor, as the case may be.

5.2    Insurance. Unless and until the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt has occurred:

(a)     (i) First Lien Agent and the First Lien Claimholders shall have the sole and exclusive right, subject to the rights of Grantors under the First Lien Documents, to adjust and settle any claim under any insurance policy covering the Collateral in the event of any loss thereunder and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding (or any deed in lieu of condemnation) affecting the Collateral; and (ii) all proceeds of any such insurance policy and any such award (or any payments with respect to a deed in lieu of condemnation) shall be paid, subject to the rights of Grantors under the First Lien Documents and the Second Lien Documents, first to the First Lien Claimholders and the Second Lien Claimholders in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 4.1, until paid in full in cash, and second, to the owner of the subject property, such other person as may be entitled thereto, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct; and

(b)    if Second Lien Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder shall, at any time, receive any proceeds of any such insurance policy or any such award or payment in contravention of this Section 5.2, it shall pay such proceeds over to First Lien Agent in accordance with the terms of Section 4.2. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section 5.2 and Section 4.2 shall not apply with respect to proceeds of liability insurance payable directly to either Wells Fargo or Wilmington Trust, as the case may be, either in their respective agent or individual capacities, in connection with liability or damage suffered by Wells Fargo or Wilmington Trust, as the case may be, in such agent or individual capacities in connection with the First Lien Debt or Second Lien Debt.

(a)    The First Lien Documents may be amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified in accordance with their terms and the First Lien Debt may be Refinanced, in each case without notice to, or the consent of, Second Lien Agent, any Permitted Additional Second Lien Obligations Representative, or any other Second Lien Claimholder, all without affecting the lien subordination or other provisions of this Agreement; provided, that, (i) such amendment, supplement, modification or Refinancing is permitted under the terms of the Second Lien Documents as in effect on the date hereof (or, if less restrictive, on the date of such amendment, supplement, modification or Refinancing) and (ii) in the case of a Refinancing, the

holders of such Refinancing debt bind themselves (in a writing addressed to Second Lien Agent) to the terms of this Agreement; provided further, that any such amendment, supplement, modification, or Refinancing shall not, without the prior written consent of Second Lien Agent (which it shall be authorized to consent to based upon an affirmative vote of the Second Lien Claimholders holding a majority in the aggregate principal amount of the Second Lien Debt then outstanding) contravene the provisions of this Agreement.

(b)    The Second Lien Documents may be amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified in accordance with their terms and the Second Lien Debt may be Refinanced, in each case without notice to, or the consent of, First Lien Agent or the First Lien Claimholders, all without affecting the lien subordination or other provisions of this Agreement; provided, that, (i) such amendment, supplement, modification or Refinancing is permitted under the terms of the First Lien Documents as in effect on the date hereof (or, if less restrictive, on the date of such amendment, supplement, modification or Refinancing) and (ii) in the case of a Refinancing, the holders of such Refinancing debt bind themselves (in a writing addressed to First Lien Agent) to the terms of this Agreement; provided further, that any such amendment, supplement, modification, or Refinancing shall not, without the prior written consent of First Lien Agent (which it shall be authorized to consent to based upon an affirmative vote of the First Lien Claimholders holding a majority in the aggregate principal amount of the First Lien Debt then outstanding) contravene the provisions of this Agreement.

(c)    Grantors agree that the Second Lien Notes Indenture and the Second Lien Collateral Documents shall at all times include the following language (or language to similar effect approved by First Lien Agent):

“Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the liens and security interests granted herein, the exercise of any right or remedy with respect thereto, and certain of the rights of the holder hereof are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement dated as of May 2, 2013 (as amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Intercreditor Agreement”), by and between Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as First Lien Agent, and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as Second Lien Agent. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control.”

(d)    In the event First Lien Agent or First Lien Claimholders or Second Lien Agent, or Second Lien Claimholders, and the relevant Grantor enter into any amendment which constitutes a Deemed Amendment, then such Deemed Amendment shall apply automatically to any comparable provision of the First Lien Collateral Documents or the Second Lien Collateral Documents (as the case may be) without the requirement of consent of any Grantor or any Claimholder and without any action by any Grantor or any Claimholder. Grantors and the Claimholders (and, in the case of Second Lien Agent, after delivery of any documents required by the Second Lien Notes Indenture) promptly shall execute and deliver such amendment as any party hereto may request in writing to effectively confirm such amendment.

(e)    First Lien Agent and Second Lien Agent each (i) will use its commercially reasonable efforts to notify the other parties of any written amendment or modification to any First Lien Document or any Second Lien Document, as applicable, but the failure to do so will not create a cause of action against the party failing to give such notice or create any claim or right on behalf of any third party or impact the effectiveness of any such amendment or modification, and (ii) will, upon request of the other party, provide copies of all such modifications or amendments and copies of all other relevant documentation to the other Persons.

5.4    Bailee for Perfection.

(a)    First Lien Agent and Second Lien Agent each agree to hold or control that part of the Collateral that is in its possession or control (or in the possession or control of its agents or bailees) to the extent that possession or control thereof is taken to perfect a Lien thereon under the UCC or other applicable law (such Collateral being referred to as the “Pledged Collateral”), as bailee and as a non-fiduciary representative for Second Lien Agent or First Lien Agent, as applicable (such bailment and agency being intended, among other things, to satisfy the requirements of Sections 8-301(a)(2), 9-313(c), 9-104, 9-105, 9-106, and 9-107 of the UCC), solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted under the Second Lien Documents or the First Lien Documents, as applicable, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.4. Unless and until the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt, Second Lien Agent agrees to promptly notify First Lien Agent of any Pledged Collateral held by it or by any other Second Lien Claimholder, and, immediately upon the written request of First Lien Agent at any time prior to the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt, Second Lien Agent agrees to deliver to First Lien Agent any such Pledged Collateral held by it or by any other Second Lien Claimholder, together with any necessary endorsements (or otherwise allow First Lien Agent to obtain control of such Pledged Collateral).

(b)    First Lien Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to Second Lien Agent, any Permitted Additional Second Lien Obligations Representative, or any other Second Lien Claimholder to ensure that the Pledged Collateral is genuine or owned by any of Grantors or to preserve rights or benefits of any person except as expressly set forth in this Section 5.4. Second Lien Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder to ensure that the Pledged Collateral is genuine or owned by any of Grantors or to preserve rights or benefits of any person except as expressly set forth in this Section 5.4. The duties or responsibilities of First Lien Agent under this Section 5.4 shall be limited solely to holding or controlling the Pledged Collateral as bailee and non-fiduciary representative in accordance with this Section 5.4 and delivering the Pledged Collateral upon a Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt as provided in Section 5.8. The duties or responsibilities of Second Lien Agent under this Section 5.4 shall be limited solely to holding or controlling the Pledged Collateral as bailee and non-fiduciary representative in accordance with this Section 5.4.

(c)    First Lien Agent acting pursuant to this Section 5.4 shall not have by reason of the First Lien Collateral Documents, the Second Lien Collateral Documents, or this Agreement a fiduciary relationship in respect of Second Lien Agent, any Permitted Additional Second Lien Obligations Representative, or any other Second Lien Claimholder. Second Lien Agent acting pursuant to this Section 5.4 shall not have by reason of the First Lien Collateral Documents, the Second Lien Collateral Documents, or this Agreement a fiduciary relationship in respect of First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder.

(d)    Upon the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt, First Lien Agent shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, deliver the remaining tangible Pledged Collateral (if any) together with any necessary endorsements, first, to Second Lien Agent to the extent Second Lien Debt remain outstanding as confirmed in writing by Second Lien Agent, and second, to the extent no First Lien Debt or Second Lien Debt remain outstanding, to Borrowers (in each case, so as to allow such person to obtain possession or control of such Pledged Collateral). At such time, First Lien Agent further agrees to take all other action reasonably requested by Second Lien Agent at the expense of Borrowers (including amending any outstanding control agreements) to enable Second Lien Agent to obtain a first priority security interest in the Collateral.

5.5    When Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt Deemed to Not Have Occurred. If Borrowers enter into any Refinancing of the First Lien Debt, then neither a Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt nor a discharge or payment in full of the Excess First Lien Debt shall be deemed to have

occurred for all purposes of this Agreement, and the obligations under such Refinancing of such First Lien Debt shall be treated as First Lien Debt for all purposes of this Agreement, including for purposes of the Lien priorities and rights in respect of Collateral set forth herein, and First Lien Agent under the First Lien Documents effecting such Refinancing shall be First Lien Agent for all purposes of this Agreement. First Lien Agent under such First Lien Documents shall agree (in a writing addressed to Second Lien Agent accompanied by a complete copy of the relevant new First Lien Documents) to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and Second Lien Agent agrees to acknowledge and accept such writing.

5.6    Purchase Option.

(a)    Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a Triggering Event, then, in any such case, any one or more of the Second Lien Claimholders (acting in their individual capacity or through one or more affiliates) shall have the right, but not the obligation (each Second Lien Claimholder having a ratable right to make the purchase, with each Second Lien Claimholder’s right to purchase being automatically proportionately increased by the amount not purchased by another Second Lien Claimholder), upon 5 Business Days prior written notice from (or on behalf of) such Second Lien Claimholders (a “Purchase Notice”) to First Lien Agent to acquire from the First Lien Claimholders all (but not less than all) of the right, title, and interest of the First Lien Claimholders in and to the First Lien Priority Debt and the First Lien Documents. The Purchase Notice, if given, shall be irrevocable and shall specify the identity of the Second Lien Purchase Representative.

(b)    On the date specified by the purchasing Second Lien Claimholders in the Purchase Notice (which shall not be less than 5 Business Days and not be more than 10 Business Days after the receipt by First Lien Agent of the Purchase Notice), the First Lien Claimholders shall sell to the purchasing Second Lien Claimholders and the purchasing Second Lien Claimholders shall purchase from the First Lien Claimholders, the First Lien Priority Debt.

(c)    On the date of such purchase and sale, the purchasing Second Lien Claimholders shall:

(i)    pay to First Lien Agent, for the benefit of the First Lien Claimholders, as the purchase price therefor, the full amount of all the First Lien Priority Debt (other than indemnification obligations for which no claim or demand for payment has been made at such time, and other than First Lien Priority Debt cash collateralized in accordance with clause (c)(ii) below) then outstanding and unpaid,

(ii)    furnish cash collateral to First Lien Agent in such amounts as First Lien Agent determines is reasonably necessary to secure First Lien Agent and the First Lien Claimholders in respect of (A) any issued and outstanding Letters of Credit that are part of First Lien Priority Debt (but not in any event in an amount greater than 105% of the aggregate undrawn amount of such Letters of Credit) (such cash collateral shall be applied to the reimbursement of any drawing under a Letter of Credit as and when such drawing is paid and, if a Letter of Credit expires undrawn, the cash collateral held by First Lien Agent in respect of such Letter of Credit shall be remitted to the Second Lien Purchase Representative for the benefit of the purchasing Second Lien Claimholders) and (B) to the extent constituting a contingent obligation for which no claim or demand for payment has been made at such time, Bank Product Obligations that are part of First Lien Priority Debt (provided that, with respect to Hedge Obligations, the amount cash collateralized shall be limited to the amount of the Bank Product Reserves (as confirmed in writing by First Lien Agent to the Second Lien Purchase Representative) established with respect to such Hedge Obligations as of the

date of such purchase and sale) (but not in any event in an amount greater than 105% of the aggregate uncollateralized exposure of such Bank Product Obligations) (the “Cash Collateralized Bank Product Obligations”) (such cash collateral shall be applied to the reimbursement of the Bank Product Obligations as and when such obligations become due and payable and, at such time as Bank Product Obligations in an amount equal to the Cash Collateralized Bank Product Obligations are paid in full, the remaining cash collateral held by First Lien Agent in respect of Bank Product Obligations shall be remitted to the Second Lien Agent for the benefit of the purchasing Second Lien Claimholders), and (C) any asserted or threatened (in writing) claims, demands, actions, suits, proceedings, investigations, liabilities, fines, costs, penalties, or damages that are the subject of the indemnification provisions of the First Lien Credit Agreement in respect of First Lien Priority Debt and to the extent disclosed in writing to the Second Lien Purchase Representative, Second Lien Agent, and the Second Lien Claimholders (such cash collateral shall be applied to the reimbursement of such obligations as and when they become due and payable and, at such time as all of such obligations are paid in full, the remaining cash collateral held by First Lien Agent in respect of indemnification obligations shall be remitted to the Second Lien Purchase Representative for the benefit of the purchasing Second Lien Claimholders), and

(iii)    pay to First Lien Agent and the other First Lien Claimholders the amount of all expenses to the extent earned or due and payable in accordance with the First Lien Documents (including the reimbursement of attorneys fees, field examination expenses, and appraisal fees) and incurred through the date of such purchase.

(d)    Such purchase price and cash collateral shall be remitted by wire transfer of federal funds to such bank account of First Lien Agent as First Lien Agent may designate in writing to Second Lien Purchase Representative for such purpose. Interest shall be calculated to but excluding the Business Day on which such purchase and sale shall occur if the amounts so paid by the purchasing Second Lien Claimholders to the bank account designated by First Lien Agent are received in such bank account prior to 4:30 p.m., New York City time, and interest shall be calculated to and including such Business Day if the amounts so paid by the purchasing Second Lien Claimholders to the bank account designated by First Lien Agent are received in such bank account later than 4:30 p.m., New York City time.

(e)    [Intentionally Omitted].

(f)    Such purchase shall be effected by the execution and delivery of a customary form of assignment and acceptance agreement and shall be expressly made without representation or warranty of any kind by First Lien Agent and the other First Lien Claimholders as to the First Lien Debt so purchased, or otherwise, and without recourse to First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder, except that each First Lien Claimholder shall represent and warrant: (i) that the amount quoted by such First Lien Claimholder as its portion of the purchase price represents the amount shown as owing with respect to the claims transferred as reflected on its books and records, (ii) it owns, or has the right to transfer to the purchasing Second Lien Claimholders, the rights being transferred, and (iii) such transfer will be free and clear of Liens.

(g)    In the event that any one or more of the Second Lien Claimholders exercises and consummates the purchase option set forth in this Section 5.6, (i) First Lien Agent shall have the right, but not the obligation, to immediately resign as administrative agent under the First Lien Credit Agreement, and (ii) the purchasing Second Lien Claimholders shall have the right, but not the obligation, to require First Lien Agent to immediately resign under the First Lien Credit Agreement.

(h)    In the event that any one or more of the Second Lien Claimholders exercises and consummates the purchase option set forth in this Section 5.6, (i) the First Lien Claimholders shall retain their indemnification rights under the First Lien Credit Agreement for actions or other matters arising on or prior to the date of such purchase, and (ii) in the event that, at the time of such purchase, there exists Excess First Lien Debt, the consummation of such purchase option shall not include (nor shall the purchase price be calculated with respect to) such Excess First Lien Debt (clauses (i) and (ii), the “Retained Interest”).

(i)    In the event that a Retained Interest exists, each First Lien Claimholder shall, at the request of the purchasing Second Lien Claimholders, execute an amendment to the First Lien Credit Agreement acknowledging that such Retained Interest consisting of Excess First Lien Debt is a last-out tranche, payable after Payment in Full of all First Lien Priority Debt and payment in full of all of the Second Lien Debt. Interest with respect to such Retained Interest consisting of Excess First Lien Debt shall continue to accrue and be payable in accordance with the terms of the First Lien Documents, the Retained Interest shall continue to be secured by the Collateral, and the Retained Interest shall be paid (or cash collateralized, as applicable) in accordance with the terms of the First Lien Credit Agreement and this Agreement. Each First Lien Claimholder shall continue to have all rights and remedies of a lender under the First Lien Credit Agreement and the other First Lien Documents; provided, that no First Lien Claimholder shall have any right to vote on or otherwise consent to any amendment, waiver, departure from, or other modification of any provision of any First Lien Document except that the consent of First Lien Agent shall be required for (i) those matters that require the agreement of all lenders under Section 14.1(a) of the First Lien Credit Agreement as in effect on the date hereof and (ii) matters in contravention of the provisions and priorities set forth in this Agreement.

5.7    Injunctive Relief. Should any Second Lien Claimholder in any way take, attempt to, or threaten to take any action contrary to terms of this Agreement with respect to the Collateral, or fail to take any action required by this Agreement, First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder may obtain relief against such Second Lien Claimholder by injunction, specific performance, or other appropriate equitable relief, it being understood and agreed by Second Lien Agent that (a) the First Lien Claimholders’ damages from such actions may at that time be difficult to ascertain and may be irreparable, and (b) each Second Lien Claimholder waives any defense that the First Lien Claimholders cannot demonstrate damage or be made whole by the awarding of damages. Should any other First Lien Claimholder in any way take, attempt to, or threaten to take any action contrary to terms of this Agreement with respect to the Collateral, or fail to take any action required by this Agreement, Second Lien Agent, any Permitted Additional Second Lien Obligations Representative, or any Second Lien Claimholder may obtain relief against such First Lien Claimholder by injunction, specific performance, or other appropriate equitable relief, it being understood and agreed by First Lien Claimholders that (i) the Second Lien Claimholders’ damages from such actions may at that time be difficult to ascertain and may be irreparable, and (ii) each First Lien Claimholder waives any defense that the Second Lien Claimholders cannot demonstrate damage or be made whole by the awarding of damages. First Lien Agent and Second Lien Agent hereby irrevocably waive any defense based on the adequacy of a remedy at law and any other defense which might be asserted to bar the remedy of specific performance in any action which may be brought by First Lien Agent or the other First Lien Claimholders or Second Lien Agent or the other Second Lien Claimholders, as the case may be.

5.8    Transfer of Pledged Collateral to Second Lien Agent.

(a)    First Lien Agent hereby agrees that upon the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt, to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon the written request of Second Lien Agent (with all costs and expenses in connection therewith to be for the account of Second Lien Agent and to be paid by Grantors):

(i)    First Lien Agent shall, without recourse or warranty, take commercially reasonable steps to transfer the possession and control of the Pledged Collateral, if any, then in its possession or control to Second Lien Agent, except in the event and to the extent (A) such Collateral is sold, liquidated, or otherwise disposed of by First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder or by a Grantor as provided herein in full or partial satisfaction of any of the First Lien Priority Debt or (B) it is otherwise required by any order of any court or other governmental authority or applicable law; and

(ii)    in connection with the terms of any collateral access agreement, whether with a landlord, processor, warehouseman, or other third party or any control agreement, First Lien Agent shall notify the other parties thereto that its rights thereunder have been assigned to Second Lien Agent (to the extent such assignment is not prohibited by the terms of such agreement) and shall confirm to such parties that Second Lien Agent is thereafter the “Agent” (or other comparable term) as such term is used in any such agreement and is otherwise entitled to the rights of the secured party under such agreement.

(b)    The foregoing provision shall not impose on First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder any obligations which would conflict with prior perfected claims therein in favor of any other person or any order or decree of any court or other governmental authority or any applicable law or give rise to risk of legal liability.

6.1    Enforceability and Continuing Priority. This Agreement shall be applicable both before and after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding and all converted or succeeding cases in respect thereof. The relative rights of Claimholders in or to any distributions from or in respect of any Collateral or proceeds of Collateral, shall continue after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding. Accordingly, the provisions of this Agreement are intended to be and shall be enforceable as a subordination agreement within the meaning of Section 510 of the Bankruptcy Code.

6.2    Financing. If any Grantor shall be subject to any Insolvency Proceeding and if First Lien Agent consents to the use of cash collateral (as such term is defined in Section 363(a) of the Bankruptcy Code; herein, “Cash Collateral”), on which First Lien Agent has a Lien or consents to such Grantor obtaining financing provided under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of any other Bankruptcy Law (such financing, a “DIP Financing”), and if such Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing, as applicable, meets the applicable DIP Financing Conditions, then Second Lien Agent unconditionally agrees that it will consent to such Cash Collateral use or raise no objection to such DIP Financing, as applicable, and, if DIP Financing is involved, Second Lien Agent will subordinate its Liens in the Collateral (and in any other assets of the Grantors that may serve as collateral (including avoidance actions, or the proceeds thereof) for such DIP Financing) to the Liens securing such DIP Financing. If such Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing, as applicable, meets some, but not all, of the applicable DIP Financing Conditions, then Second Lien Agent unconditionally agrees that it will only withhold its consent to such Cash Collateral use or will only raise an objection to such DIP Financing based upon the DIP Financing Condition(s) which are not met and will not withhold its consent or object on any other basis and, if DIP Financing is involved and any permitted objection of Second Lien Agent is withdrawn, overruled, or otherwise eliminated, Second Lien Agent will subordinate its Liens in the Collateral (and in any other assets of the Grantors that may serve as collateral (including avoidance actions, or the proceeds thereof) for such DIP Financing) to the Liens securing such DIP Financing. Second Lien Agent agrees that it shall not, nor shall any of the Second Lien Claimholders, directly or indirectly, provide, offer to provide, or support any DIP Financing secured by a

Lien senior to or pari passu with the Liens securing the First Lien Debt. If, in connection with any Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing, any Liens on the Collateral held by the First Lien Claimholders to secure the First Lien Debt are subject to a surcharge or are subordinated to an administrative priority claim, a professional fee “carve-out,” or fees owed to the United States Trustee, then the Liens on the Collateral of the Second Lien Claimholders securing the Second Lien Debt shall also be subordinated to such interest or claim and shall remain subordinated to the Liens on the Collateral of the First Lien Claimholders consistent with this Agreement.

6.3    Sales. Second Lien Agent agrees that it will consent to, and will not object or oppose a motion to Dispose of any Collateral free and clear of the Liens of Second Lien Agent under Section 363 or Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code if (a) the First Lien Agent has consented to the sale of such Collateral free and clear of the Liens of the First Lien Agent, (b) such motion does not impair, subject to the priorities set forth in this Agreement, the rights of the Second Lien Claimholders under Section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code (so long as the right of the Second Lien Claimholders to offset its claim against the purchase price only arises after the First Lien Priority Debt has been paid in full in cash), and (c) either (i) pursuant to court order, the Liens of the Second Lien Claimholders attach to the net proceeds of the Disposition with the same priority and validity as the Liens held by the Second Lien Claimholders on such Collateral, and the Liens remain subject to the terms of this Agreement, or (ii) the proceeds of the Disposition are applied in accordance with Section 4.1. The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, the Second Lien Claimholders may raise any objections to such Disposition of the Collateral that could be raised by a creditor of Grantors whose claims are not secured by Liens on such Collateral, provided such objections are not based on their status as secured creditors (without limiting the foregoing, Second Lien Creditors may not raise any objections based on rights afforded by Sections 363(e) and (f) of the Bankruptcy Code to secured creditors (or any comparable provision of any other Bankruptcy Law) with respect to the Liens granted to Second Lien Agent in respect of such assets).

6.4    Relief from the Automatic Stay. Until the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt has occurred, Second Lien Agent agrees not to (a) seek (or support any other person seeking) relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency Proceeding in respect of the Collateral, without the prior written consent of First Lien Agent; provided, that Second Lien Agent may seek relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency Proceeding in respect of the Collateral if and to the extent that First Lien Agent has obtained relief from or modification of such stay in respect of the Collateral, or (b) oppose any request by the First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder to seek relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency Proceeding in respect of the Collateral.

6.5    Adequate Protection.

(a)    In any Insolvency Proceeding involving a Grantor,

(i)    Each Second Lien Claimholder agrees that it shall not object to or contest, or support any other person objecting or contesting (and instead shall be deemed to have hereby irrevocably, absolutely, and unconditionally waived any right to do so):

(A)    any request by any First Lien Claimholder prior to the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt for adequate protection of their interest in the Collateral, including replacement or additional Liens on post-petition assets; or

(B)    any objection by any First Lien Claimholder to any motion, relief, action, or proceeding based on any such First Lien Claimholders claiming a lack of adequate protection;

(ii)    if any one or more First Lien Claimholders are granted adequate protection in the form of an additional or replacement Lien (on existing or future assets of Grantors) in connection with any DIP Financing or use of Cash Collateral, then First Lien Agent agrees that Second Lien Agent shall also be entitled to seek, without objection from First Lien Claimholders, adequate protection in the form of an additional or replacement Lien (on such existing or future assets of Grantors), which additional or replacement Lien, if obtained, shall be subordinate to the Liens securing the First Lien Debt (including those under a DIP Financing) on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Second Lien Debt are subordinate to the First Lien Debt under this Agreement;

(iii)    no Second Lien Claimholder may seek adequate protection except for adequate protection permitted pursuant to Section 6.5(a) or adequate protection in the form of an additional or replacement Lien in and to existing or future assets of Grantors, and Second Lien Agent further agrees that First Lien Agent shall also be entitled to seek, without objection from the Second Lien Claimholders, a senior adequate protection Lien in and to such existing or future assets of Grantors as security for the First Lien Debt and that any adequate protection Lien securing the Second Lien Debt shall be subordinated to such senior adequate protection Lien securing the First Lien Debt on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Second Lien Debt are subordinated to the Liens securing the First Lien Debt under this Agreement;

(iv)    if any one or more First Lien Claimholders are granted adequate protection in the form of a superpriority or other administrative expense claim in connection with any DIP Financing or use of Cash Collateral, then First Lien Agent agrees that Second Lien Agent shall also be entitled to seek, without objection from First Lien Claimholders, adequate protection in the form of a superpriority or other administrative expense claim (as applicable), which superpriority or other administrative expense claim, if obtained, shall be subordinate to the superpriority or other administrative expense claim of the First Lien Claimholders (such subordination to include an express provision that the Second Lien Claimholders will agree that their superpriority or other administrative expense adequate protection claims may be satisfied by their receipt of deferred cash payments of a value, as of the effective date of the plan of reorganization, equal to the allowed amount of such claims in accordance with Section 1129(a)(9)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code);

(v)    if any one or more Second Lien Claimholders are granted adequate protection in the form of a superpriority or other administrative expense claim in connection with any DIP Financing or use of Cash Collateral, then Second Lien Agent agrees that First Lien Agent shall also be entitled to seek, without objection from Second Lien Claimholders, adequate protection in the form of a superpriority or other administrative expense claim (as applicable), which superpriority or other administrative expense claim, if obtained, shall be senior to the superpriority or other administrative expense claim of the Second Lien Claimholders; and

(vi)    to the extent that the First Lien Claimholders are granted adequate protection in the form of periodic cash interest payments, current post-petition fees, and/or out-of-pocket expenses, Second Lien Agent may seek and retain adequate protection with respect to the Second Lien Claimholders’ rights in the Collateral in the form of periodic cash payments in an amount not exceeding interest at the non-default contract rate, current post-petition fees, and/or out-of-pocket expenses to the extent such cash payments compensate the Second Lien Claimholders for a decrease

in the value of the Second Lien Claimholders’ interest in the Collateral, subject to the right of the First Lien Claimholders to object to the reasonableness of the amount of interest, fees, and expenses so sought by the Second Lien Claimholders. Without the consent of First Lien Agent, no Second Lien Claimholder shall seek any other adequate protection in the form of cash payments with respect to their rights in the Collateral.

(b)    Neither Second Lien Agent nor any other Second Lien Claimholder shall object to, oppose, or challenge the determination of the extent of any Liens held by any of the First Lien Claimholders or the value of any claims of First Lien Claimholders under Section 506(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or any claim by any First Lien Claimholder for allowance in any Insolvency Proceeding of First Lien Debt consisting of post-petition interest, fees, or expenses.

(c)    Neither First Lien Agent nor any other First Lien Claimholder shall object to, oppose, or challenge the determination of the extent of any Liens held by any of the Second Lien Claimholders or the value of any claims of Second Lien Claimholders under Section 506(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or any claim by any Second Lien Claimholder for allowance in any Insolvency Proceeding of Second Lien Debt consisting of post-petition interest, fees, or expenses.

6.6    Specific Sections of the Bankruptcy Code. No Second Lien Claimholder shall object to, oppose, support any objection, or take any other action to impede, the right of any First Lien Claimholder to make an election under Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Second Lien Claimholders waive any claim they may hereafter have against any First Lien Claimholder arising out of the election by any First Lien Claimholder of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Second Lien Claimholders agree that they will not, directly or indirectly, assert or support the assertion of, and hereby waive any right that they may to assert or support the assertion of any claim under Section 506(c) or the “equities of the case” exception of Section 552(b) of the Bankruptcy Code as against any First Lien Claimholder or any of the Collateral to the extent securing the First Lien Debt.

6.7    No Waiver. Subject to Section 3.1(a) and the other provisions of this Section 6, nothing contained herein shall prohibit or in any way limit any First Lien Claimholder from objecting in any Insolvency Proceeding involving a Grantor to any action taken by any Second Lien Claimholder, including the seeking by any Second Lien Claimholder of adequate protection or the assertion by any Second Lien Claimholder of any of its rights and remedies under the Second Lien Documents.

6.8    Avoidance Issues. If any First Lien Claimholder is required in any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise to turn over, disgorge, or otherwise pay to the estate of any Grantor any amount paid in respect of First Lien Debt (or if any First Lien Claimholder elects to do so upon the advice of counsel) (a “Recovery”), then such First Lien Claimholder shall be entitled to a reinstatement of the First Lien Debt with respect to all such amounts, and all rights, interests, priorities, and privileges recognized in this Agreement shall apply with respect to any such Recovery. If this Agreement shall have been terminated prior to such Recovery, this Agreement shall be reinstated in full force and effect, and such prior termination shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair, or otherwise affect the obligations of the parties hereto from such date of reinstatement and, to the extent the First Lien Cap was decreased in connection with such payment of the First Lien Debt, the First Lien Cap shall each be increased to such extent.

(a)    If, in any Insolvency Proceeding involving a Grantor, debt obligations of the reorganized debtor secured by Liens upon any property of the reorganized debtor or equity are distributed

pursuant to a confirmed plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan, both on account of First Lien Debt and on account of Second Lien Debt, then, to the extent the debt obligations distributed on account of the First Lien Debt and on account of the Second Lien Debt are secured by Liens upon the same property, the provisions of this Agreement will survive the distribution of such debt obligations or equity pursuant to such plan and will apply with like effect to the Liens securing such debt obligations or equity.

(b)    The provisions of Section 1129(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code notwithstanding, the Second Lien Claimholders agree that they will not propose, support, or vote in favor of any plan of reorganization of a Grantor that is inconsistent with the priorities or other provisions of this Agreement.

(c)    Unless and until the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt has occurred and except as otherwise expressly provided this Section 6, if a Grantor (or any of its assets) is the subject of an Insolvency Proceeding and if any distribution from the Collateral or on account of a Lien in the Collateral is received by Second Lien Agent, any Permitted Additional Second Lien Obligations Representative, or any other Second Lien Claimholder on account of their Second Lien Secured Claims in connection with such Insolvency Proceeding, then such distribution shall be segregated and held in trust and forthwith paid over to First Lien Agent for the benefit of the First Lien Claimholders in the same form as received, with any necessary endorsements or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. Except as otherwise provided in Section 6.5 and Section 6.9(a) hereof, unless and until the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt has occurred, the Second Lien Agent, each Permitted Additional Second Lien Obligations Representative, and each other Second Lien Claimholder shall be required to turnover to the First Lien Agent and the First Lien Agent shall be entitled to apply (or, in the case of non-cash proceeds, hold) in accordance with Section 4.1 any cash or non-cash distribution from the Collateral or on account of a Lien in the Collateral or the proceeds thereof received by the Second Lien Claimholders on account of their Second Lien Secured Claims pursuant to a confirmed plan of reorganization or similar dispositive plan of a Grantor (unless such distribution is made under a confirmed plan of reorganization or other dispositive plan of such Grantor that is accepted by the requisite affirmative vote of all classes composed of the secured claims of the First Lien Claimholders under Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise provides for the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt). For purposes of this subsection, the issue of whether the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt has occurred under a confirmed plan of reorganization or other dispositive plan shall be subject to a reasonable and good faith determination under the circumstances by the First Lien Agent, and shall be further subject to all rights and defenses of the Second Lien Agent or any Second Lien Claimholder with respect thereto. Second Lien Agent irrevocably authorizes and empowers First Lien Agent, in the name of each Second Lien Claimholder, to demand, sue for, collect, and receive any and all such distributions from the Collateral or on account of a Lien in the Collateral in respect of any Second Lien Secured Claim to which the First Lien Claimholders are entitled hereunder. In furtherance of the foregoing, First Lien Agent is hereby authorized to make any such endorsements as agent for Second Lien Agent, any Permitted Additional Second Lien Obligations Representative, or any other such Second Lien Claimholders.
