Moreover, no Subordinated Creditor will, directly or indirectly, oppose, object to, interfere with, or hinder or delay, by judicial proceeding or by any other manner, any foreclosure, sale, lease, exchange, transfer, or other Disposition of Collateral by Senior Creditors (or any Obligor with the consent of Senior Creditors), or the exercise by Senior Creditors of any other right or remedy relative to the Collateral; provided, that the foregoing provisions of this sentence shall not preclude the Subordinated Creditor from initiating or prosecuting any claim against Senior Creditors that is based directly upon Senior Creditors’ breach of this Agreement.

7.    Release of Liens. In the event that Senior Creditors are required, pursuant to the terms of any Senior Debt Agreement, to release their Liens in any of the Collateral securing the Senior Debt, or in the event Senior Creditors voluntarily elect to release their Liens in any of the Collateral securing the Senior Debt in connection with the sale, assignment or other Disposition of any such Collateral, then, in any such instances, Subordinated Creditor shall be deemed to contemporaneously have released, without any further action, any Liens that it may have in such Collateral. Subordinated Creditor from time to time promptly shall execute and deliver to Senior Creditors such releases and additional documents of termination or release with respect to any Liens of the Subordinated Creditor as Senior Creditors may request pursuant to this Agreement to effect any release of Liens of the Subordinated Creditor described in this Agreement.

The failure of an Obligor to make a Distribution with respect to the Subordinated Debt or to comply with any term of any Subordinated Debt Agreement by reason of operation of this Agreement shall not be construed as preventing the occurrence of a Subordinated Default under the applicable Subordinated Debt Agreements.
13.    Cumulative Rights, No Waivers.

Any failure or delay on the part of Senior Creditors in exercising any such right, remedy or power, or abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce the same, shall not operate as a waiver thereof or affect the rights of Senior Creditors thereafter to exercise the same, and any single or partial exercise of any such right, remedy or power shall not preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy or power, and no such failure, delay, abandonment or single or partial exercise of the rights of Senior Creditors hereunder shall be deemed to establish a custom or course of dealing or performance among the parties hereto.
14.    Duration. This Agreement is of a continuing nature, and it shall continue in force until the Senior Debt is Paid in Full and thereafter as provided in Section 17.
15.    Senior Debt Agreement Amendments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other agreement executed and delivered in connection with the Subordinated Debt, Subordinated Creditor hereby acknowledges and agrees that, without any further consent of or notice to Subordinated Creditor, without incurring responsibility to Subordinated Creditor, and without in any manner affecting, impairing, or lessening the subordination arrangements provided for in this Agreement, any of the obligations of the Subordinated Creditor under this Agreement, or any of the provisions of this Agreement, Senior Creditors may at any time and from time to time (a) renew, extend, change the manner, time, place and terms of payment of, sell, exchange, release, increase, substitute, surrender, realize upon, modify, waive, alter, grant indulgences with respect to, and otherwise deal with in any manner: (i) all or any part of the Senior Debt; (ii) all or any of the Senior Debt Agreements; (iii) all or any part of any property that at any time secures any part of the Senior Debt; or (iv) any Person at any time primarily or secondarily liable for any part of the Senior Debt and/or any Collateral and security therefor, all as if any interest the Subordinated Creditor has with respect to such Persons or property did not exist; and (b) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights and remedies against any one or more of the Obligors or any other Person, including, without limitation, those with respect to any Collateral securing payment of the Senior Debt. At any time and from time to time,

-11-


Senior Creditors may waive any Senior Default and, upon such waiver, any Subordinated Default arising solely by virtue of such Senior Default shall be deemed to have never occurred.
16.    Subordinated Debt Agreements Amendments; No Liens. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Subordinated Debt Agreements or the Senior Debt Agreements, neither the Subordinated Creditor nor any Obligor shall, without the prior written consent of Senior Creditors, agree (whether or not in writing) to any amendment, modification or supplement to any Subordinated Debt Agreement. Until the Senior Debt has been Paid in Full, the parties hereto agree that no Liens shall be granted or permitted on any asset of any Obligor or any other Person to secure any Subordinated Debt.
17.    Payment Set Aside. If, after receipt of any payment or application of the proceeds of any Collateral to payment of all or any part of the Senior Debt, Senior Creditors are compelled to surrender or voluntarily surrender such payment or proceeds to any Person, because such payment or application of proceeds is or may be avoided, invalidated, declared fraudulent, set aside, declared to be void or voidable as a preference, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer, impermissible setoff, diversion of trust funds, or any other void or voidable transfer or payment, or because of any settlement or compromise of such claim, then, the Senior Debt shall be deemed to have not been Paid in Full, and this Agreement shall be reinstated and shall continue to be in full force and effect, as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Senior Creditors, notwithstanding any revocation thereof, or the surrender of any promissory note, or the return or cancellation of any instrument or document relating to the Senior Debt Agreements. This Section 17 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
18.    [Reserved]
19.    Waivers.
(a)    Subordinated Creditor expressly waives all notice of the acceptance by Senior Creditors of the subordination and other provisions of this Agreement and all other notices whatsoever not specifically required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or (except to the extent not waiveable by Subordinated Creditor under applicable law) applicable law, and expressly waives reliance by Senior Creditors upon the subordination and other agreements as herein provided. Subordinated Creditor agrees that Senior Creditors have not made any warranties or representations with respect to the due execution, legality, validity, completeness or enforceability of any Senior Debt Agreement, or the collectability of any Senior Debt, that Senior Creditors shall be entitled to manage and supervise their loans to and affairs with any one or more of the Obligors in accordance with applicable law and their usual practices, modified from time to time as they deem appropriate under the circumstances, without regard to the existence of any rights that Subordinated Creditor may now or hereafter have in or to any of the assets of any Obligor.
(b)    Senior Creditors shall have no liability to Subordinated Creditor for, and Subordinated Creditor waives, any claim which it may now or hereafter have against Senior Creditors arising out of, any actions Senior Creditors take or omit to take (including, without limitation, actions with respect to the creation, perfection or continuation of Liens in the Collateral and other security for the Senior Debt, actions with respect to the occurrence of any default, actions with respect to the foreclosure upon, sale, release, or depreciation of, or failure to realize upon, any of the Collateral and

-12-


actions with respect to the collection of any claim for all or any part of the Senior Debt from any account debtor, guarantor or any other party, any purchase, sale, assignment, release, abandonment or Disposition of the Collateral, whether by private or public sale or otherwise with or without notice, but without waiver of any obligation of Senior Creditors to provide any UCC Notice required to be provided pursuant to Section 6 hereof, pursuant to court order, or by any means) with respect to any of the Senior Debt Agreements, any other agreement related thereto, or the exercise of one or more rights or remedies thereunder, or with respect to the collection of the Senior Debt, or the valuation, use, protection or release of the Collateral or other security for the Senior Debt. Until the Senor Debt has been Paid in Full, Subordinated Creditor agrees, with respect to each Obligor’s assets and the enforcement of any rights or remedies of Senior Creditors arising under this Agreement or any of the Senior Debt Agreements or at law or in equity, not to demand, request, plead or otherwise claim the benefit of, any marshaling, foreclosure, appraisement, valuation or any other right contemplated at law or in equity (whether or not relating to notice, other than the right to receive any UCC Notice required to be provided pursuant to Section 6, diligence, presentment, demand, protest, setoff, reliance, defense, counterclaim or election) that may otherwise be available to Subordinated Creditor with respect to Senior Creditors, or their rights and remedies in the Collateral, or any Collection Action by Senior Creditors.
(c)    Subordinated Creditor acknowledges and agrees that the Liens of Senior Creditor in and to the Collateral are valid, perfected, and enforceable first priority Liens. Subordinated Creditor agrees not to initiate or prosecute or encourage any other Person to initiate or prosecute (and will not participate on any creditor’s committee with respect to the initiation or prosecution of) any claim, action, objection or other proceeding (i) challenging or contesting the validity, attachment, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Senior Debt, any Senior Debt Agreement, any Lien securing the Senior Debt, or any adequate protection rights granted by any bankruptcy court in favor of Senior Creditors or the allowance of any claim for Senior Debt (including any portion thereof consisting of Post-Petition Interest or Post-Petition Charges), (ii) opposing, interfering with, or delaying any Collateral Action by Senior Creditors, (iii) asserting any claims which the Obligors may hold with respect to the Senior Creditors, (iv) seeking to lift the automatic stay to the extent that such action is opposed by Senior Creditors, or (v) opposing a motion or other request by Senior Creditors for adequate protection or an objection by Senior Creditors, based on a claim of lack of adequate protection, to any motion or other request. If any Senior Debt or Lien securing or claim for any Senior Debt is held to be invalid or not perfected or is set aside or disallowed, the provisions of this Agreement shall remain in effect with respect to such Senior Debt or Lien securing the Senior Debt and such Senior Debt and such Liens shall continue to be entitled to the benefits contemplated by this Agreement to the same extent as if still outstanding.
(d)    Subordinated Creditor acknowledges that it has no Liens in the assets of any Obligor and waives any rights to acquire any such Liens until the Senior Debt is Paid in Full.
(e)    Until the Senior Debt has been Paid in Full, as between Senior Creditors on the one hand, and the Subordinated Creditor on the other, Senior Creditors shall have the exclusive right to settle and adjust claims in respect of Collateral under policies of insurance and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding, or any deed in lieu of condemnation, in respect of the Collateral.

-13-


(f)    Senior Creditors agree not to initiate any claim, action, objection or other proceeding challenging or contesting the validity or enforceability of the Subordinated Debt or any Subordinated Debt Agreement, in each case, to the extent not in violation of this Agreement.
(g)    Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, the Subordinated Creditor in no event shall be precluded from initiating or prosecuting against Senior Creditors any claim that is based solely and directly upon Senior Creditors’ breach of this Agreement.
20.    Representations and Warranties. Subordinated Creditor hereby represents and warrants to Senior Creditors as follows:
(a)    Subordinated Creditor is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the law of the state of its organization.
(b)    Subordinated Creditor has full power and authority to enter into, execute, deliver and carry out the terms of this Agreement and to incur the obligations provided for herein, all of which have been duly authorized by all proper and necessary action and are not prohibited by the organizational documents of Subordinated Creditor.
(c)    This Agreement, when executed and delivered, will constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of Subordinated Creditor enforceable in accordance with its terms.
(d)    No provisions of any mortgage, indenture, contract, agreement, statute, rule, regulation, judgment, decree or order binding on Subordinated Creditor or affecting the property of Subordinated Creditor conflicts with, or requires any consent which has not already been obtained under, or would in any way prevent the execution, delivery or performance of the terms of this Agreement. No pending, or, to the best of such Subordinated Creditor’s knowledge, threatened, litigation, arbitration or other proceedings against such Subordinated Creditor, if adversely determined, would in any way prevent the performance of the terms of this Agreement.
21.    Subordinated Debt Owed Only to the Subordinated Creditor. Subordinated Creditor represents and warrants that it has not previously assigned any interest in the Subordinated Debt or any security interest in connection therewith, that no other party owns an interest in the Subordinated Debt or any security therefor other than the Subordinated Creditor (whether as joint holders of the Subordinated Debt, participants or otherwise) and that the entire Subordinated Debt is owing only to the Subordinated Creditor.
22.    Information; Application of Payments. Subordinated Creditor hereby assumes responsibility for keeping itself informed of the financial condition of each Obligor, any and all endorsers and any and all guarantors of the Senior Debt and Subordinated Debt and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Senior Debt and/or Subordinated Debt that diligent inquiry would reveal, and Subordinated Creditor hereby agrees that Senior Creditors shall have no duty to advise Subordinated Creditor of information known to them regarding such condition or any such circumstances. In the event Senior Creditors, in their sole discretion, at any time or from time to time undertakes to provide any such information to Subordinated Creditor, Senior Creditors shall not be under any obligation (i) to provide any such information on any subsequent occasion, (ii) to undertake

-14-


any investigation, or (iii) to disclose any information Senior Creditors wish to maintain confidential. Subordinated Creditor hereby agrees that all payments received by Senior Creditors may be applied, in whole or in part, to any of the Senior Debt, as Senior Creditors, in their sole discretion, deem appropriate.
23.    No Fiduciary Relationship. Subordinated Creditor agrees that Senior Creditors shall not (a) be deemed or otherwise considered to be acting as an agent or in any other fiduciary capacity on behalf of Subordinated Creditor or the Subordinated Debt by virtue of this Agreement or otherwise, or (b) have any liability to Subordinated Creditor for, and Subordinated Creditor hereby waives, any claim Subordinated Creditor at any time may have against Senior Creditors arising out of any actions Senior Creditors may take or omit to take not (i) in violation of this Agreement or (ii) constituting inequitable or willful misconduct or actual fraud, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction, including, without limitation, with respect to (x) any Senior Debt Agreement, (y) collection of Senior Debt, or (z) foreclosure upon and sale, liquidation or other Disposition, or valuation, use, protection or release, of any Obligor’s assets.
24.    Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon each Obligor and its respective successors and assigns, and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each Senior Creditor, the Subordinated Creditor, and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Subordinated Creditor agrees not to sell, assign, pledge, grant a security interest, dispose of or otherwise transfer all or any portion of any Subordinated Debt, any Subordinated Debt Agreement or any Lien securing the Subordinated Debt: (i) without giving prior written notice of such action to Senior Creditors, and (ii) unless prior to the consummation of any such action, the transferee thereof shall execute and deliver to Senior Creditors a joinder to this Agreement pursuant to which such transferee agrees to be bound by and subject to the terms hereof. Notwithstanding the failure to execute or deliver any such joinder, the subordination effected hereby shall survive any sale, assignment, pledge, disposition or other transfer of all or any portion of the Subordinated Debt, and the terms of this Agreement shall be binding upon any such transferee. No Obligor may assign any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Senior Creditors and the Subordinated Creditor. This Agreement also shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each other holder of Senior Debt that exists as a result of a refinancing of the Senior Debt so long as (i) each such other holder of Senior Debt signs a joinder hereto and agrees to be bound by the terms hereof, and (ii) such refinancing and the terms of such refinancing are no more unfavorable with respect to the Obligors than those contained in the Senior Debt Agreements, as in effect on the date hereof or as the Senior Debt Agreements could be amended without violating this Agreement. Upon such event, each such other holder of Senior Debt shall be deemed to be included in the term “Senior Creditors” for all purposes hereunder.
25.    Governing Law; Remedies; Entire Agreement. This Agreement shall in all respects be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. In furtherance of the foregoing, the internal law of the State of Delaware shall control the interpretation and construction of this Agreement, even though under that jurisdiction’s choice of law or conflict of law analysis, the substantive law of some other jurisdiction would ordinarily apply. The parties hereto acknowledge that the provisions of this Agreement are

-15-


unique and money damages may not provide an adequate remedy for any breach thereof, and each party may seek specific performance and other equitable remedies for any breaches under this Agreement. THIS WRITTEN AGREEMENT REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OR PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.
26.    Amendments and Waivers. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Agreement may be changed, modified or waived only by a writing signed by the Subordinated Creditor and Senior Creditors, each in its capacity as such.
27.    Notices. All notices to be given under this Agreement must be in writing and shall be addressed to the addresses and to the attention of the Persons stated on the signature pages hereof, or at such other address or to the attention of such other Person as the recipient has designated after the date hereof in a written notice given by the recipient in conformity with the provisions of this Section. No party is obligated to give any other party any notices under this Agreement except as expressly set forth herein. Any communication or notice so addressed and mailed shall be deemed to be given three days after mailing by first class, certified or registered mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid. Any communication or notice otherwise delivered shall be deemed to be given when receipt is acknowledged if sent by facsimile transmission, when personally delivered, or on the next Business Day after sending by overnight courier, if sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service for next Business Day delivery.
28.    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, any one of which need not contain the signatures of more than one party, but all such counterparts taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement.
29.    Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is deemed to be invalid by reason of the operation of any law or by reason of the interpretation placed thereon by any court or governmental authority, this Agreement shall be construed as not containing such provision and the invalidity of such provision shall not affect the validity of any other provisions hereof, and any and all other provisions hereof which otherwise are lawful and valid shall remain in full force and effect.
30.    Conflict. In the event of any conflict between any term, covenant or condition of this Agreement and any term, covenant or condition of any of the Subordinated Debt Agreements or the Senior Debt Agreements, the provisions of this Agreement shall control and govern.
31.    [Reserved].
32.    Waiver of Jury Trial. AS A SPECIFICALLY BARGAINED INDUCEMENT FOR SENIOR CREDITORS TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT, SENIOR CREDITORS AND SUBORDINATED CREDITOR EACH WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY ACTION, CLAIM, SUIT OR PROCEEDING IN RESPECT OF OR ARISING OUT OF EITHER OR BOTH OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE CONDUCT OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SENIOR CREDITORS AND SUBORDINATED CREDITOR.
