(e) Subordinated Creditor will not, and hereby waives any right to, oppose, contest, object to, join in, or otherwise support any opposition to or objection with respect to, (i) any request or motion of the Senior Creditors seeking, pursuant to Section 362(d) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, the modification, lifting or vacating of the automatic stay of Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or from any other stay in connection with any Insolvency Event or seeking adequate protection of the Senior Creditors’ interests in the Collateral or with respect to the Senior Debt (whether under Sections 362, 363, and/or 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable law), and, until Senior Discharge Date, Subordinated Creditor agrees that it shall not

seek relief from such automatic stay without the prior written consent of the Senior Agent; (ii) any debtor-in-possession financing (including on a priming basis) or use of cash collateral (as defined in Section 363(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable law) arrangement by Borrower, whether from the Senior Creditors or any other third party under Section 362, 363 or 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable law, if the Senior Creditors, in their sole discretion, consent to such debtor-in-possession financing or cash collateral arrangement, and Subordinated Creditor shall not request adequate protection (whether under Sections 362, 363, and/or 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable law) or any other relief in connection therewith; (iii) any sale or other disposition of any of the Collateral or any of the assets of Borrower or any other Obligor (include any such sale free and clear of liens or other claims) under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable law if the Senior Creditors, in their sole discretion, consent to such sale or disposition; (vii) the Senior Creditors’ exercise or enforcement of its right to make an election under Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, and Subordinated Creditor hereby waives any claim it may hereafter have against the Senior Creditors arising out of such election; (viii) the Senior Creditors’ exercise or enforcement of its right to credit bid any or all of its debt claims against Borrower or any other Obligor, including, without limitation, the Senior Debt; or (ix) any plan of reorganization or liquidation if the Senior Creditors, in their sole discretion, consent to, vote in favor of, or otherwise do not oppose such plan of reorganization or liquidation, and, in furtherance thereof, Subordinated Creditor hereby grants to the Senior Creditors the right to vote Subordinated Creditor’s claim or claims (as such term is defined in the Bankruptcy Code) arising on account of or in connection with the Subordinated Debt, as Subordinated Creditor’s agent, with respect to any plan of reorganization or liquidation to which Subordinated Creditor may be entitled to vote in any bankruptcy or liquidation proceeding or in connection with any other Insolvency Event of Borrower or any other Obligor.

7

(d) Subordinated Creditor has not previously assigned any interest in the Subordinated Debt, and no Person other than the Subordinated Creditor owns an interest in the Subordinated Debt.

If, after the Senior Discharge Date, the Senior Creditors must disgorge any payments made on the Senior Debt for any reason (including, without limitation, in connection with the bankruptcy of Borrower or in connection with any other Insolvency Event), this Agreement and the relative rights and priorities provided in it, will be reinstated as to all disgorged payments as though such payments had not been made, and Subordinated Creditor will immediately pay the Senior Agent all payments received in respect of the Subordinated Debt to the extent such payments or retention thereof would have been prohibited under this Agreement.
14. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement binds Subordinated Creditor, its successors or assigns, and benefits the Senior Creditors’ successors or assigns. This Agreement is for Subordinated Creditor’s and the Senior Creditors’ benefit and not for the benefit of Borrower or any other party. Subordinated Creditor shall not sell, assign, pledge, dispose of or otherwise transfer all or any portion of the Subordinated Debt or any related document or any interest in any Collateral therefor unless prior to the consummation of any such action, the transferee thereof shall execute and deliver to the Senior Agent an agreement of such transferee to be bound hereby, or an agreement substantially identical to this Agreement providing for the continued subjection of the Subordinated Debt, the interests of the transferee in the Collateral and the remedies of the transferee with respect thereto as provided herein with respect to Subordinated
9
Creditor and for the continued effectiveness of all of the other rights of the Senior Creditors arising under this Agreement, in each case in form satisfactory to the Senior Creditors. Any such sale, assignment, pledge, disposition or transfer not made in compliance with the terms of this Section 14 shall be void but shall not affect the subordination provisions of this Agreement.
15. Further Assurances. Subordinated Creditor hereby agrees to execute such documents and/or take such further action as the Senior Agent may at any time or times reasonably request in order to carry out the provisions and intent of this Agreement, including, without limitation, ratifications and confirmations of this Agreement from time to time hereafter, as and when requested by the Senior Agent.

17. Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial. (a) This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws that would result in the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction; provided that Section 5-1401 of the New York General Obligations Law shall apply.
(b) EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES ITS RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN.

The Senior Creditors and Subordinated Creditor are not relying on any representations by the other creditor party or Borrower in entering into this Agreement, and each of the Senior Creditors and Subordinated Creditor has kept and will continue to keep itself fully apprised of the financial and other condition of Borrower. No amendment, modification, supplement, termination, consent or waiver of or to any provision of this Agreement, nor any consent to any departure therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Senior Agent and Subordinated Creditor. Any waiver of any provision of this Agreement, or any consent to any departure from the terms of any provision of this Agreement, shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.
19. No Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of any Senior Creditor or Subordinated Creditor in the exercise of any power, right, remedy or privilege under this Agreement shall impair such power, right, remedy or privilege or shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude any other or further exercise of any other power, right or privilege.

21. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is illegal, invalid, prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent such illegality, invalidity, prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating or impairing the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.
