(B) in the case of Shared Collateral other than Shared Perfected Collateral, (a) first, to each Senior Priority Collateral Agent that at such time holds a perfected security interest in such Shared Collateral, which security interest is not subject to avoidance as a preference under the Bankruptcy Code, to (i) first, pay any outstanding fees, expenses and indemnity claims of such agents, and (ii) second, to pay all other such Series of Senior Secured Lien Obligations until such Series has been paid in full and, in the case of more than one Series, on a ratable basis and (b) second, to each Senior Priority Collateral Agent of any other Series of Senior Secured Lien Obligations for whom such Collateral constitutes Shared Collateral (i) first, to pay any outstanding fees, expenses and indemnity claims of such agents, and (ii) second, to pay all other such Series of Senior Secured Lien Obligations on a ratable basis until each such Series has been paid in full; and

SECOND, to the payment in full of the ABL Obligations in accordance with (x) Section 6.4 of the ABL Facility Loan Agreement (to the extent such application of proceeds occurs prior to the full and final payment and satisfaction of all obligations under the ABL Facility Loan Agreement and the termination thereof in accordance with its terms) and/or (y) such other similar provision of the applicable ABL Facility Documents (provided that prior to the full and final payment and satisfaction of all obligations under the ABL Facility Loan Agreement and the termination thereof in accordance with its terms, any application of proceeds pursuant to the foregoing clause (y) will be made to the extent expressly permitted under the ABL Facility Loan Agreement).

If any ABL Obligations remain outstanding after the Discharge of the Senior Secured Lien Obligations, all proceeds of the Notes Priority Collateral will be applied to the repayment of any outstanding ABL Obligations on a ratable basis.

(ii) In the case of ABL Priority Collateral,

FIRST, to the payment in full of the ABL Obligations in accordance with (x) Section 6.4 of the ABL Facility Loan Agreement (to the extent such application of proceeds occurs prior to the full and final payment and satisfaction of all obligations under the ABL Facility Loan Agreement and the termination thereof in accordance with its terms) and/or (y) such other similar provision of the applicable ABL Facility Documents (provided that prior to the full and final payment and satisfaction of all obligations under the ABL Facility Loan Agreement and the termination thereof in accordance with its terms, any application of proceeds pursuant to the foregoing clause (y) will be made to the extent expressly permitted under the ABL Facility Loan Agreement), and

SECOND, to the Applicable Senior Secured Lien Collateral Agent for distribution in accordance with clause (a)(i) above.

If any Senior Secured Lien Obligations remain outstanding after the Discharge of the ABL Obligations, all proceeds of the ABL Priority Collateral will be applied to the repayment of any outstanding Senior Secured Lien Obligations in accordance with clause (a)(i) above.

(b) It is acknowledged that (i) the aggregate amount of any Senior Secured Obligations may, subject to the limitations set forth in the ABL Facility, the Indenture and any Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Credit Documents, be Refinanced from time to time, all without affecting the priorities set forth in Section 2.01(a) or the provisions of this Agreement defining the relative rights of the ABL Facility Secured Parties, the Senior Secured Note Secured Parties and the Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Secured Parties, and (ii) a portion of the Senior Secured Obligations consists or may consist of indebtedness that is revolving in nature, and the amount thereof that may be outstanding at any time or from time to time may be

increased or reduced and subsequently reborrowed. The priorities provided for herein shall not be altered or otherwise affected by any Refinancing of either the Junior Secured Obligations (or any part thereof) or the Senior Secured Obligations (or any part thereof), by the release of any Collateral or of any guarantees for any Senior Secured Obligations or by any action that any Representative or Secured Party may take or fail to take in respect of any Collateral.

(c) Notwithstanding the date, time, method, manner or order of grant, attachment or perfection of any Liens securing the Senior Secured Lien Obligations granted on the Collateral or of any Liens securing the ABL Obligations granted on the Collateral and notwithstanding any provision of the Uniform Commercial Code of any jurisdiction, or any other applicable law or the ABL Facility Documents, the Senior Secured Note Documents, or any Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Documents or any defect or deficiencies in, or failure to perfect any such Liens or any other circumstance whatsoever:

(i) (1) the Liens on the Notes Priority Collateral securing Senior Secured Lien Obligations will rank senior to any Liens on such Notes Priority Collateral securing ABL Obligations, and (2) the Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral securing ABL Obligations will rank senior to any Liens on such ABL Priority Collateral securing Senior Secured Lien Obligations, and

(ii) the Senior Secured Notes Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Senior Secured Note Secured Parties, and each Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the applicable Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Secured Parties, each hereby agrees that the Liens of each such Collateral Agent shall be of equal priority; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not be construed to alter the relative rights or priorities of the various Series of Senior Secured Lien Obligations Secured Parties against each other Series of Senior Secured Lien Obligations hereunder.

(d) To the extent that as a result of any provision of this Agreement, Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act (or any successor or similar regulation) would require the filing with the SEC separate financial statements of any of the Company’s subsidiaries because such subsidiary’s capital stock or other securities would be deemed to secure the Senior Secured Notes or any Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations, then such provision shall be void and have no effect, but only to the extent necessary to not be subject to such requirement and only for so long as such requirement is in existence; it being understood that such voidance shall only apply to the Class of Senior Secured Obligations triggering such filing obligation.

SECTION 2.02. Actions With Respect to Collateral; Prohibition on Contesting Liens.

(a) Until the Discharge of all of the Senior Secured Obligations of a particular Class, (i) only the Applicable Collateral Agent shall be entitled to act or act with respect to the Senior Secured Obligations Collateral of such Class and then only on the instructions of the applicable Senior Representative and no other agent, representative or Secured Party of any other Class shall be permitted to act with respect to such Senior Secured Obligations Collateral , (ii) no

Collateral Agent shall follow any instructions with respect to such Senior Secured Obligations Collateral from any Junior Representative or from any Junior Secured Obligations Secured Parties, and (iii) each Junior Representative and the Junior Secured Obligations Secured Parties shall not, and shall not instruct any Collateral Agent to, commence any judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure proceedings with respect to, seek to have a trustee, receiver, liquidator or similar official appointed for or over, attempt any action to take possession of, exercise any right, remedy or power with respect to, or otherwise take any action to enforce its interest in or realize upon, or take any other action available to it in respect of, any Junior Secured Obligations Collateral, whether under any ABL Facility Security Document, any Senior Secured Note Security Document or any Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Security Documents, as applicable, applicable law or otherwise, it being agreed that (A) only the Applicable Collateral Agent, acting in accordance with the ABL Facility Security Documents, the Senior Secured Note Security Documents or the Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Security Documents, as applicable, shall be entitled to take any such actions or exercise any such remedies, or to cause any Collateral Agent to do so and (B) notwithstanding the foregoing, each Junior Representative may take Permitted Remedies. Notwithstanding the equal priority of the Liens, each Senior Collateral Agent may deal with the Senior Secured Obligations Collateral as if they had a senior Lien on such Collateral. No Junior Collateral Agent, Junior Representative or Junior Secured Obligations Secured Party will contest, protest or object to any foreclosure proceeding or action brought by the Senior Collateral Agent, Senior Representative or Senior Secured Obligations Secured Party or any other exercise by the Senior Collateral Agent, Senior Representative or Senior Secured Obligations Secured Party of any rights and remedies relating to the Senior Secured Obligations Collateral.

(b) The Senior Secured Notes Collateral Agent, each of the other Senior Secured Note Secured Parties, each Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Collateral Agent and each of the other Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Secured Parties each agrees that it will not (and hereby waives any right to) contest or support any other Person in contesting, in any proceeding (including any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding), the perfection, priority, validity or enforceability of a Lien held by or on behalf of any of the ABL Facility Secured Parties in all or any part of the Collateral, or the provisions of this Agreement, and the ABL Facility Collateral Agent and each of the ABL Facility Secured Parties each agrees that it will not (and hereby waives any right to) contest or support any other Person in contesting, in any proceeding (including any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding), the perfection, priority, validity or enforceability of a Lien held by or on behalf of any of the Senior Secured Lien Obligations Secured Parties in all or any part of the Collateral, or the provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of any of the ABL Facility Collateral Agent, any ABL Facility Secured Party, the Senior Secured Notes Collateral Agent, the Senior Secured Note Secured Parties, any Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Collateral Agent or any Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Secured Parties to enforce this Agreement.

(c) The parties hereto agree to execute, acknowledge and deliver a Memorandum of Intercreditor Agreement (“Memorandum”), together with such other documents in furtherance hereof or thereof, in each case, in proper form for recording in connection with any Mortgages and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to each of the Collateral Agents, in those jurisdictions where such recording is reasonably recommended or requested by local real estate counsel or the title insurance company, or as otherwise deemed reasonably necessary or proper by the parties hereto.

SECTION 2.03. No Duties of Senior Representative; Provision of Notice

(a) Each Junior Secured Obligations Secured Party acknowledges and agrees that none of the Collateral Agents, the Senior Representative nor any other Senior Secured Obligations Secured Party shall have any duties or other obligations to such Junior Secured Obligations Secured Party with respect to any Senior Secured Obligations Collateral, other than to transfer to the Applicable Junior Collateral Agent any proceeds of any such Collateral that constitutes Junior Secured Obligations Collateral remaining in its possession following any sale, transfer or other disposition of such Collateral (in each case, unless the Junior Secured Obligations have been Discharged prior to or concurrently with such sale, transfer, disposition, payment or satisfaction) and the Discharge of the Senior Secured Obligations secured thereby, or if a Collateral Agent shall be in possession of all or any part of such Collateral after such payment and satisfaction in full and termination, such Collateral or any part thereof remaining, in each case without representation or warranty on the part of any Collateral Agent, the Senior Representative or any Senior Secured Obligations Secured Party. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Junior Secured Obligations Secured Party acknowledges and agrees that until the Senior Secured Obligations secured by any Collateral shall have been Discharged, the Applicable Collateral Agent shall be entitled, for the benefit of the holders of such Senior Secured Obligations, to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of or deal with such Collateral as provided herein and in the ABL Facility Documents and any Senior Secured Lien Obligations Documents, as applicable, without regard to any Junior Claims or any rights to which the holders of the Junior Secured Obligations would otherwise be entitled as a result of such Junior Claims. Without limiting the foregoing, each Junior Secured Obligations Secured Party agrees that none of the Collateral Agents, the Senior Representatives nor any other Senior Secured Obligations Secured Party shall have any duty or obligation first to marshal or realize upon any type of Senior Secured Obligations Collateral (or any other collateral securing the Senior Secured Obligations), or to sell, dispose of or otherwise liquidate all or any portion of such Collateral (or any other collateral securing the Senior Secured Obligations), in any manner that would maximize the return to the Junior Secured Obligations Secured Parties, notwithstanding that the order and timing of any such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation may affect the amount of proceeds actually received by the Junior Secured Obligations Secured Parties from such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation. Each of the Junior Secured Obligations Secured Parties waives any claim such Junior Secured Obligations Secured Party may now or hereafter have against any Collateral Agent, any Senior Representative or any other Senior Secured Obligations Secured Party (or their representatives) arising out of (i) any actions which any Collateral Agent, any Senior Representative or the Senior Secured Obligations Secured Parties may take or omit to take (including, actions with respect to the creation, perfection or continuation of Liens on any Collateral, actions with respect to the foreclosure upon, sale, release or depreciation of, or failure to realize upon, any of the Collateral and actions with respect to the collection of any claim for all or any part of the Senior Secured Obligations from any account debtor, guarantor or any other party) in accordance with the ABL Facility Documents and any Senior Secured Lien Obligations Documents or any other agreement related thereto or to the collection of the Senior Secured Obligations or the valuation, use, protection or release of any security for the Senior Secured Obligations, (ii) any election by any Senior Representative or any

Senior Secured Obligations Secured Parties, in any proceeding instituted under the Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or (iii) subject to Section 2.06, any borrowing by, or grant of a security interest or administrative expense priority under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code by, Holdings or any of its subsidiaries, as debtor-in-possession.

(b) The Senior Secured Notes Collateral Agent shall, after obtaining actual knowledge that it no longer qualifies as the Applicable Senior Secured Lien Collateral Agent, notify the Company and the other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Representatives and the ABL Facility Collateral Agent of the same.

SECTION 2.04. No Interference; Payment Over; Reinstatement.

(a) Each Junior Secured Obligations Secured Party, Junior Representative and Junior Collateral Agent agrees that (i) it will not take or cause to be taken any action the purpose or effect of which is, or could be, to make any Junior Claim pari passu with, or to give such Junior Secured Obligations Secured Party any preference or priority relative to, any Senior Claim with respect to the Collateral securing the Senior Claims or any part thereof, (ii) it will not challenge or question in any proceeding the validity or enforceability of any ABL Facility Security Document, Senior Secured Note Security Document or Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Security Document or the validity, attachment, perfection or priority of any Lien under the ABL Facility Security Documents, the Senior Secured Note Security Documents or Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Security Documents, or the validity or enforceability of the priorities, rights or duties established by or other provisions of this Agreement, (iii) it will not take or cause to be taken any action the purpose or intent of which is, or could be, to interfere, hinder or delay, in any manner, whether by judicial proceedings or otherwise, any sale, transfer or other disposition of the Senior Secured Obligations Collateral by the Applicable Collateral Agent or any Senior Secured Obligations Secured Parties or any Senior Representative acting on their behalf, (iv) it shall have no right to (A) direct the Applicable Collateral Agent, any Senior Representative or any holder of Senior Secured Obligations to exercise any right, remedy or power with respect to any Senior Secured Obligations Collateral or (B) consent to the exercise by the Applicable Collateral Agent, any Senior Representative or any other Senior Secured Obligations Secured Party of any right, remedy or power with respect to any Senior Secured Obligations Collateral, (v) it will not institute any suit or assert in any suit, bankruptcy, insolvency or other proceeding any claim against the Applicable Collateral Agent, any Senior Representative or other Senior Secured Obligations Secured Party seeking damages from or other relief by way of specific performance, instructions or otherwise with respect to, and none of the Applicable Collateral Agent, any Senior Representative or any other Senior Secured Obligations Secured Party shall be liable to any Junior Secured Obligations Secured Party, Junior Representative or Junior Collateral Agent for, any action taken or omitted to be taken by such Applicable Collateral Agent, such Senior Representative or other Senior Secured Obligations Secured Party with respect to any Senior Secured Obligations Collateral, (vi) it will not seek, and hereby waives any right, to have any Senior Secured Obligations Collateral or any part thereof marshaled upon any foreclosure or other disposition of such Collateral and (vii) it will not attempt, directly or indirectly, whether by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to challenge the enforceability of any provision of this Agreement; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of any of the ABL Facility

Collateral Agent, any ABL Facility Secured Party, the Senior Secured Notes Collateral Agent, the Senior Secured Note Secured Parties, any Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Collateral Agent or any Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Secured Parties to enforce this Agreement.

(b) Each Junior Representative, each Junior Collateral Agent and each other Junior Secured Obligations Secured Party hereby agrees that if it shall obtain possession of any Senior Secured Obligations Collateral or shall realize any proceeds or payment in respect of any such Collateral, pursuant to any ABL Facility Security Document, Senior Secured Note Security Document or Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Security Document or by the exercise of any rights available to it under applicable law or in any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding or through any other exercise of remedies, at any time prior to the Discharge of the Senior Secured Obligations, then it shall hold such Collateral, proceeds or payment in trust for the Senior Secured Obligations Secured Parties and transfer such Collateral, proceeds or payment, as the case may be, to the Applicable Collateral Agent reasonably promptly after obtaining actual knowledge, or notice from the Applicable Collateral Agent, that it is in possession of such Collateral, proceeds or payment. Each Junior Secured Obligations Secured Party agrees that if, at any time, it receives notice or obtains actual knowledge that all or part of any payment with respect to any Senior Secured Obligations previously made shall be rescinded for any reason whatsoever, such Junior Secured Obligations Secured Party shall promptly pay over to the Applicable Collateral Agent any payment received by it and then in its possession or under its control in respect of any Senior Secured Obligations Collateral and shall promptly turn over any Senior Secured Obligations Collateral then held by it over to the Applicable Collateral Agent, and the provisions set forth in this Agreement shall be reinstated as if such payment had not been made, until the payment and satisfaction in full of the Senior Secured Obligations.

SECTION 2.05. Automatic Release of Junior Liens.

(a) Each Senior Secured Lien Obligations Representative and each other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Secured Party agrees that in the event of a sale, transfer or other disposition of any ABL Priority Collateral in connection with the foreclosure upon or other exercise of rights and remedies with respect to such ABL Priority Collateral or otherwise that results in the release by the ABL Facility Collateral Agent of the Lien held by the ABL Facility Collateral Agent on such ABL Priority Collateral (regardless of whether or not an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the Senior Secured Lien Obligations Documents at the time of such sale, transfer or other disposition, including any such sale, transfer or other disposition of any ABL Priority Collateral by any Grantor to the extent permitted by the ABL Facility Documents or otherwise with the consent of, or at the direction of, the ABL Facility Collateral Agent), the Lien held by each other Collateral Agent on such ABL Priority Collateral shall be automatically released; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, all holders of the Senior Secured Lien Obligations shall be entitled to any proceeds of a sale, transfer or other disposition under this clause (a) that remain after Discharge of the ABL Obligations, and the Liens on such remaining proceeds securing the Senior Secured Lien Obligations shall not be automatically released pursuant to this Section 2.05(a).

(b) The ABL Facility Collateral Agent and each other ABL Facility Secured Party agrees that in the event of a sale, transfer or other disposition of any Notes Priority Collateral in connection with the foreclosure upon or other exercise of rights and remedies with

respect to such Notes Priority Collateral or otherwise that results in the release by the Applicable Senior Secured Lien Collateral Agent of the Lien held by the Applicable Senior Secured Lien Collateral Agent on such Notes Priority Collateral (regardless of whether or not an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the ABL Facility Documents at the time of such sale, transfer or other disposition, including any such sale, transfer or other disposition of any Notes Priority Collateral by any Grantor to the extent permitted by the Senior Secured Lien Obligations Documents or otherwise with the consent of, or at the direction of, the Applicable Senior Secured Lien Collateral Agent), the Lien held by each other Collateral Agent on such Notes Priority Collateral shall be automatically released; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, all holders of the ABL Obligations shall be entitled to any proceeds of a sale, transfer or other disposition under this clause (a) that remain after Discharge of the entire Class of Senior Secured Lien Obligations, and the Liens on such remaining proceeds securing the ABL Obligations shall not be automatically released pursuant to this Section 2.05(b).

(c) Each Junior Representative and each Junior Collateral Agent agrees to execute and deliver (at the sole cost and expense of the Grantors) all such authorizations and other instruments as shall reasonably be requested by the Senior Representative or the Applicable Collateral Agent to evidence and confirm any release of Junior Collateral provided for in this Section.

SECTION 2.06. Certain Agreements With Respect to Bankruptcy or Insolvency Proceedings. (a) This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding the commencement of any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law by or against Holdings or any of its subsidiaries.

(b) If the Company or any of its subsidiaries shall become subject to a case (a “Bankruptcy Case”) under the Bankruptcy Code:

(i) if the ABL Facility Collateral Agent desires to permit the use of cash collateral or to permit the Company or any of its subsidiaries to obtain financing under Section 363 or Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any other similar law (“DIP Financing”) secured by a Lien on the ABL Priority Collateral, then the Applicable Senior Secured Lien Collateral Agent and the Senior Secured Lien Obligations Secured Parties hereby agree: (A) not to object to such use of cash collateral or DIP Financing or to request adequate protection (except as otherwise expressly permitted by the terms of this Agreement) or any other relief in connection therewith so long as the Senior Secured Lien Obligations Secured Parties retain the benefit of their Liens on the Notes Priority Collateral, including proceeds thereof arising after the commencement of such Bankruptcy Case (to the extent provided for under applicable law), with the same priority vis-à-vis the ABL Facility Secured Parties (other than with respect to any DIP Financing Liens) as existed prior to the commencement of such Bankruptcy Case and (B) to the extent the Liens on ABL Priority Collateral securing the ABL Obligations are subordinated or pari passu with such DIP Financing, to subordinate its Liens in the ABL Priority Collateral to such DIP Financing (and all obligations relating thereto including any “carve-out” granting administrative priority status or Lien priority to secure the

payment of fees and expenses of professionals retained by any debtor or creditors’ committee agreed to by the ABL Facility Collateral Agent) on the same basis as such Liens are subordinated to the Liens in such ABL Priority Collateral securing the ABL Obligations or to confirm the priorities with respect to such ABL Priority Collateral as set forth herein, as applicable; and

(ii) if the Applicable Senior Secured Lien Collateral Agent desires to permit the Company or any of its subsidiaries to obtain any DIP Financing secured by a Lien on Notes Priority Collateral, then the ABL Facility Collateral Agent and the ABL Facility Secured Parties hereby agree: (A) not to object to such DIP Financing or to request adequate protection (except as otherwise expressly permitted by the terms of this Agreement) or any other relief in connection therewith so long as the ABL Facility Secured Parties retain the benefit of their Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral, including proceeds thereof arising after the commencement of such Bankruptcy Case (to the extent provided for under applicable law), with the same priority vis-à-vis the Senior Secured Lien Obligations Secured Parties (other than with respect to any DIP Financing Liens) as existed prior to the commencement of such Bankruptcy Case and (B) to the extent the Liens on Notes Priority Collateral securing the Senior Secured Lien Obligations are subordinated or pari passu with such DIP Financing, to subordinate its Liens in the Notes Priority Collateral to such DIP Financing (and all obligations relating thereto including any “carve-out” granting administrative priority status or Lien priority to secure the payment of fees and expenses of professionals retained by any debtor or creditors’ committee agreed to by the Applicable Senior Secured Lien Collateral Agent) on the same basis as such Liens are subordinated to the Liens in such Notes Priority Collateral securing the Senior Secured Lien Obligations or to confirm the priorities with respect to such Notes Priority Collateral as set forth herein, as applicable.

(c) The Applicable Junior Collateral Agent and each Junior Secured Obligations Secured Party agrees that it will not object to and will not otherwise contest: (i) any motion for relief from the automatic stay or from any injunction against foreclosure or enforcement in respect of the Senior Secured Obligations made by the Applicable Senior Collateral Agent or any Senior Secured Obligations Secured Party; (ii) any lawful exercise by any holder of Senior Claims of the right to credit bid Senior Claims in any sale in foreclosure of Collateral that is Senior Secured Obligations Collateral with respect to such Senior Claims; (iii) any other request for judicial relief made in any court by any Senior Secured Obligations Secured Party relating to the lawful enforcement of any Lien on the Senior Secured Obligations Collateral; or (iv) any sale or other disposition of any Senior Secured Obligations Collateral (or any portion thereof) under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or any other provision of the Bankruptcy Code if the Senior Secured Obligations Secured Parties of any Series shall have consented to such sale or disposition of such Senior Secured Obligations Collateral; or (v) any order relating to a sale of assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries for which the Applicable Senior Collateral Agent has consented which provides that, to the extent the sale is to be free and clear of Liens, the Liens securing the Senior Secured Obligations and Junior Secured Obligations will attach to the proceeds of the sale on the same basis of priority as the Liens securing such Obligations on the assets being sold, in accordance with this Agreement.

(d) The Applicable Junior Collateral Agent and each Junior Secured Obligations Secured Party agrees that it will not seek relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any insolvency or liquidation proceeding with respect to Senior Secured Obligations Collateral without the prior consent of the Applicable Senior Collateral Agent.

(e) The Applicable Junior Collateral Agent and each Junior Secured Obligations Secured Party hereby agrees that it will not object to and will not otherwise contest (or support any other Person contesting): (i) any request by the Applicable Senior Collateral Agent or any Senior Secured Obligations Secured Party for adequate protection or (ii) any objection by the Applicable Senior Collateral Agent or any Senior Secured Obligations Secured Party to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on the Applicable Senior Collateral Agent or any Senior Secured Obligations Secured Party claiming a lack of adequate protection. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in any insolvency or liquidation proceeding, (x) if the Senior Secured Obligations Secured Parties (or any subset thereof) are granted adequate protection in the form of additional collateral in connection with any DIP Financing or use of cash collateral under Section 363 or Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar law, then the Applicable Junior Collateral Agent may seek or request adequate protection in the form of a replacement Lien on such additional collateral, so long as, with respect to the Senior Secured Obligations Collateral, such Lien is subordinated to the Liens securing the Senior Secured Obligations and such DIP Financing (and all obligations relating thereto), on the same basis as the other Liens securing Junior Secured Obligations on the Senior Secured Obligations Collateral are subordinated to the Liens on Senior Secured Obligations Collateral securing the Senior Secured Obligations under this Agreement and (y) in the event the Applicable Junior Collateral Agent seeks or requests adequate protection and such adequate protection is granted in the form of additional collateral, then the Applicable Junior Collateral Agent and the Junior Secured Obligations Secured Parties hereby agree that the Senior Secured Obligations Secured Parties shall also be granted a Lien on such additional collateral as security for the Senior Secured Obligations and any such DIP Financing and that any Lien on such additional collateral that constitutes Senior Secured Obligations Collateral securing the Junior Secured Obligations shall be subordinated to the Liens on such collateral securing the Senior Secured Obligations and any such DIP Financing (and all obligations relating thereto) and any other Liens on Senior Secured Obligations Collateral granted to the holders of Senior Secured Obligations as adequate protection on the same basis as the Liens securing Junior Secured Obligations are so subordinated to the Liens securing the Senior Secured Obligations under this Agreement.

(f) The Applicable Junior Collateral Agent and each Junior Secured Obligations Secured Party hereby agrees that (i) it will not oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the Applicable Senior Collateral Agent or any Senior Secured Obligations Secured Party for allowance of Senior Secured Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses to the extent of the value of the Applicable Senior Collateral Agent’s Lien on the Senior Secured Obligations Collateral, without regard to the existence of the Lien of the Junior Secured Obligations Secured Parties on the Senior Secured Obligations Collateral; and (ii) until the Discharge of Senior Secured Obligations has occurred, the Applicable Junior Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Junior Secured Obligations Secured Parties, will not assert or enforce any claim under Section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code senior to or on a parity with the Liens on Senior Secured Obligations Collateral securing the Senior Secured Obligations for costs or expenses of preserving or disposing of any Collateral.

(g) The Senior Secured Notes Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Senior Secured Note Secured Parties, each Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Secured Parties of the applicable Series, and the ABL Facility Collateral Agent, on behalf of the ABL Facility Secured Parties, acknowledge and intend that: the grants of Liens pursuant to the Senior Secured Note Security Documents and the Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Security Documents, on the one hand, and the ABL Facility Security Documents, on the other hand, constitute separate and distinct grants of Liens, and because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Collateral, the Senior Secured Lien Obligations are fundamentally different from the ABL Obligations and must be separately classified in any Plan of Reorganization proposed or confirmed (or approved) in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, if it is held that the claims of the ABL Facility Secured Parties and the Senior Secured Lien Obligations Secured Parties in respect of any Collateral constitute claims in the same class (rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims), then the ABL Facility Secured Parties and the Senior Secured Lien Obligations Secured Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that all distributions shall be made as if there were separate classes of ABL Obligations and Senior Secured Lien Obligations against the Grantors (with the effect being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the ABL Priority Collateral or Notes Priority Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the other Secured Parties for whom such Collateral is Junior Secured Obligations Collateral), the ABL Facility Secured Parties or the Senior Secured Lien Obligations Secured Parties, respectively, shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them in respect of principal, pre-petition interest and other claims, all amounts owing in respect of post-petition interest, fees or expenses that are available from the Senior Secured Obligations Collateral for each of the ABL Facility Secured Parties and the Senior Secured Lien Obligations Secured Parties, respectively, before any distribution is made in respect of the Junior Claims with respect to such Collateral, with the holder of such Junior Claims hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the respective other Secured Parties amounts otherwise received or receivable by them to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing the aggregate recoveries).

(h) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably agrees and acknowledges that (a) the claims and interests of the ABL Facility Secured Parties and the Senior Secured Lien Obligations Secured Parties are not “substantially similar” within the meaning of Section 1122 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any comparable provision of any other bankruptcy law, (b) the grants of the Liens to secure the ABL Obligations and the grants of the Liens to secure the Senior Secured Lien Obligations constitute two separate and distinct grants of Liens, (c) the ABL Facility Secured Parties’ rights in the Collateral are fundamentally different from the Senior Secured Lien Obligations Secured Parties’ rights in the Collateral and (d) as a result of the foregoing, among other things, the ABL Obligations and the Senior Secured Lien Obligations must be separately classified in any plan of reorganization proposed or adopted in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.

SECTION 2.07. Reinstatement. In the event that any of the Senior Secured Obligations shall be paid in full and such payment or any part thereof shall subsequently, for whatever reason (including an order or judgment for disgorgement of a preference under the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar law, or the settlement of any claim in respect thereof), be

required to be returned or repaid, the terms and conditions of this Article II shall be fully applicable thereto until all such Senior Secured Obligations shall again have been paid in full in cash.

SECTION 2.08. Entry Upon Premises by the ABL Facility Collateral Agent.

(a) In the event that any Applicable Senior Secured Lien Collateral Agent, Senior Secured Note Secured Party or Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Secured Parties shall acquire control or possession of any of the Notes Priority Collateral or shall, through the exercise of remedies under the Senior Secured Notes Documents or the Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Documents, sell any of the Notes Priority Collateral to any third party (a “Third Party Purchaser”) or if the ABL Facility Collateral Agent takes any enforcement action with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral, the Senior Secured Note Secured Parties and the Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Secured Parties (or the Third Party Purchaser (which, as a condition of such sale to the Third Party Purchaser, shall be required to agree to be bound by the provisions of this Section)) (i) shall cooperate with the ABL Facility Collateral Agent (at the sole cost and expense of the ABL Facility Collateral Agent and subject to the condition that the Senior Secured Note Secured Parties and the Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Secured Parties shall have no obligation or duty to take any action or refrain from taking any action that could reasonably be expected to result in the incurrence of any liability or damage to the Senior Secured Note Secured Parties or the Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Secured Parties) in its efforts to enforce its security interest in the ABL Priority Collateral and to finish any work-in-process and assemble the ABL Priority Collateral, (ii) shall not take or direct any Collateral Agent to take any action designed or intended to hinder or restrict in any respect the ABL Facility Collateral Agent from enforcing its security interest in the ABL Priority Collateral or from finishing any work-in-process or assembling the ABL Priority Collateral, and (iii) shall permit and direct the Applicable Senior Secured Lien Collateral Agent and each other Senior Priority Collateral Agent to permit the ABL Facility Collateral Agent, and their respective employees, agents, advisers and representatives, at the sole cost and expense of the ABL Facility Secured Parties and upon reasonable advance notice, to enter upon and use the Notes Priority Collateral (including (x) equipment, processors, computers and other machinery related to the storage or processing of records, documents or files and (y) intellectual property), for a period not to exceed 180 days after the taking of such possession or control or enforcement action, or the effectuating of any such sale, for purposes of (A) assembling and storing the ABL Priority Collateral and completing the processing of and turning into finished goods of any ABL Priority Collateral consisting of work-in-process, (B) selling any or all of the ABL Priority Collateral located on such Notes Priority Collateral, whether in bulk, in lots or to customers in the ordinary course of business or otherwise, (C) removing any or all of the ABL Priority Collateral located on such Notes Priority Collateral, or (D) taking reasonable actions to protect, secure, and otherwise enforce the rights of the ABL Facility Secured Parties and the ABL Facility Collateral Agent in and to the ABL Priority Collateral; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Agreement shall restrict the rights of a Senior Priority Collateral Agent (acting on the instructions of the applicable Senior Secured Lien Obligations Secured Parties) from selling, assigning or otherwise transferring any Notes Priority Collateral prior to the expiration of such 180-day period if the purchaser, assignee or transferee thereof agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section. If any stay or other order prohibiting the exercise of remedies with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral has been entered by a court of competent jurisdiction, such

180-day period shall be tolled during the pendency of any such stay or other order. If the ABL Facility Collateral Agent conducts a public auction or private sale of the ABL Priority Collateral at any of the real property included within the Notes Priority Collateral, the ABL Facility Collateral Agent shall use reasonable efforts to hold such auction or sale in a manner which would not unduly disrupt any Senior Priority Collateral Agent’s use of such real property for the benefit of the Senior Secured Lien Obligations Secured Parties.

(b) During the period of actual occupation, use or control by the ABL Facility Secured Parties or their agents or representatives (including the ABL Facility Collateral Agent to the extent acting on behalf of such parties) of any Notes Priority Collateral, the ABL Facility Secured Parties shall be obligated to repair at their expense any physical damage to such Notes Priority Collateral or other assets or property resulting from such occupancy, use or control, and to leave such Notes Priority Collateral or other assets or property in substantially the same condition as it was at the commencement of such occupancy, use or control, ordinary wear and tear excepted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the ABL Facility Secured Parties have any liability to the Senior Secured Lien Obligations Secured Parties pursuant to this Section as a result of any condition (including any environmental condition, claim or liability) on or with respect to the Notes Priority Collateral existing prior to the date of the exercise by the ABL Facility Secured Parties of their rights under this Section and the ABL Facility Secured Parties shall have no duty or liability to maintain the Notes Priority Collateral in a condition or manner better than that in which it was maintained prior to the use thereof by the ABL Facility Secured Parties, or for any diminution in the value of the Notes Priority Collateral that results solely from ordinary wear and tear resulting from the use of the Notes Priority Collateral by the ABL Facility Secured Parties in the manner and for the time periods specified under this Section 2.08. Without limiting the rights granted in this paragraph, the ABL Facility Secured Parties shall cooperate with the Applicable Senior Secured Lien Collateral Agent (at the sole cost and expense of the Applicable Senior Secured Lien Collateral Agent and subject to the condition that the ABL Facility Secured Parties shall have no obligation or duty to take any action or refrain from taking any action that could reasonably be expected to result in the incurrence of any liability or damage to the ABL Facility Secured Parties) in connection with any efforts made by it to cause the Notes Priority Collateral to be sold.

(c) In addition to and not in limitation of Section 2.08(a) or Section 2.08(b), in connection with any enforcement action by the ABL Facility Collateral Agent, the Senior Secured Notes Collateral Agent and each Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Collateral Agent hereby grants to the ABL Facility Collateral Agent a non-exclusive, royalty free license with respect to any Notes Priority Collateral consisting of trademarks, copyrights, patents, know-how or other intellectual property and pertaining to the ABL Priority Collateral solely for purposes of disposing, collecting, or otherwise realizing on any of the ABL Priority Collateral pursuant to the rights of the ABL Facility Collateral Agent and the other ABL Facility Secured Parties as set forth in the ABL Facility Documents, the Uniform Commercial Code of any applicable jurisdiction and other applicable law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any purchaser or assignee of ABL Priority Collateral pursuant to the exercise by the ABL Facility Collateral Agent of any of its rights or remedies with respect thereto shall have the right to sell or otherwise dispose of any such ABL Priority Collateral to which any such Intellectual Property is affixed.

SECTION 2.09. Insurance. Unless and until the ABL Obligations have been Discharged, as between the ABL Facility Collateral Agent, on the one hand, and the Trustee (or the Senior Secured Notes Collateral Agent acting on its behalf), and any Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Agent (or any Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Collateral Agent acting on behalf of such Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Agent), on the other hand, only the ABL Facility Collateral Agent will have the right (subject to the rights of the Grantors under the ABL Facility Documents, the Senior Secured Note Documents and the Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Documents) to adjust or settle any insurance policy or claim covering or constituting ABL Priority Collateral in the event of any loss thereunder and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding affecting the ABL Priority Collateral. Unless and until the Senior Secured Note Obligations and each Series of Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations have been Discharged, as between the ABL Facility Collateral Agent, on the one hand, and the Trustee (or the Senior Secured Notes Collateral Agent acting on its behalf), and any Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Agent (or the applicable Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Collateral Agent acting on behalf of such Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Agent), only the Applicable Senior Secured Lien Collateral Agent will have the right (subject to the rights of the Grantors under the ABL Facility Documents, the Senior Secured Note Documents and the Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Documents) to adjust or settle any insurance policy covering or constituting Notes Priority Collateral in the event of any loss thereunder and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding solely affecting the Notes Priority Collateral. To the extent that an insured loss covers or constitutes ABL Priority Collateral and Notes Priority Collateral, then the ABL Facility Collateral Agent and the Applicable Senior Secured Lien Collateral Agent will work jointly and in good faith to collect, adjust or settle (subject to the rights of the Grantors under the ABL Facility Documents, the Senior Secured Note Documents and the applicable Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Documents) under the relevant insurance policy.

SECTION 2.10. Refinancings. The ABL Obligations, the Senior Secured Note Obligations and any Series of Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations and the agreements or indentures governing them may be Refinanced, in each case, without notice to, or the consent (except to the extent notice or consent is otherwise required to permit the refinancing transaction under any ABL Facility Document, any Senior Secured Note Document or any applicable Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Document) of any ABL Facility Secured Party, any Senior Secured Note Secured Party or any Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Secured Party, all without affecting the priorities provided for herein or the other provisions hereof; provided, however, that the holders of any such Refinancing indebtedness (or an authorized agent or trustee on their behalf) bind themselves in writing (to the extent they are not already so bound) to the terms of this Agreement pursuant to such Refinancing documents or agreements (including amendments or supplements to this Agreement) as each Applicable Collateral Agent shall reasonably request (but solely to the extent requested within a reasonable time period following receipt by such Applicable Collateral Agent of notice from the Company with respect to such Refinancing) and in form and substance reasonably acceptable to such Applicable Collateral Agent (to the extent it shall have made such aforementioned request). In connection with any Refinancing contemplated by this Section 2.10, this Agreement may be amended at the request and sole expense of the Company, and without the consent of any Representative, (a) to add parties (or any authorized agent or trustee therefor) providing any such Refinancing, (b) to confirm that such Refinancing indebtedness in respect of any Senior Secured Lien Obligations

shall have the same rights and priorities in respect of any Notes Priority Collateral as the indebtedness being Refinanced and (c) to establish that such Refinancing indebtedness in respect of any ABL Obligations shall have the same rights and priorities in respect of any ABL Priority Collateral as the indebtedness being Refinanced, all on the terms provided for herein immediately prior to such Refinancing.

SECTION 2.11. Amendments to Security Documents.

(a) Without the prior written consent of the ABL Facility Collateral Agent, each Senior Secured Lien Obligations Representative and each other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Secured Party agrees that no Senior Secured Note Security Document or Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Security Document to which such Senior Secured Lien Obligations Representative or Senior Secured Lien Obligations Secured Party is party may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified or entered into to the extent such amendment, supplement or modification, or the terms of any new Senior Secured Note Security Document or Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Security Document would, as determined by the Company in writing, be prohibited by, or would require any Grantor to act or refrain from acting in a manner that would contravene, any of the terms of this Agreement or would otherwise be materially disadvantageous to the ABL Facility Secured Parties in their capacities as Senior Secured Obligations Secured Parties in respect of the ABL Priority Collateral.

(b) Without the prior written consent of the Applicable Senior Secured Lien Collateral Agent, the ABL Facility Collateral Agent and each other ABL Facility Secured Party agrees that no ABL Facility Security Document to which the ABL Facility Collateral Agent or ABL Facility Secured Parties are a party may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified or entered into to the extent such amendment, supplement or modification, or the terms of any new ABL Facility Security Document would, as determined by the Company in writing, be prohibited by, or would require any Grantor to act or refrain from acting in a manner that would contravene, any of the terms of this Agreement or would otherwise be materially disadvantageous to the Senior Secured Lien Obligations Secured Parties in their capacities as Senior Secured Obligations Secured Parties in respect of the Notes Priority Collateral.

SECTION 2.12. Possessory Collateral Agent as Gratuitous Bailee for Perfection.

(a) Each Possessory Collateral Agent agrees to hold the Possessory Collateral that is in its possession or control (or in the possession or control of its agents or bailees) as gratuitous bailee for the benefit of each Secured Party and any assignee solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted in such Possessory Collateral pursuant to the ABL Facility Security Documents, the Senior Secured Note Security Documents or the Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Security Documents, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.12. To the extent any Possessory Collateral is possessed by or is under the control of a Collateral Agent (either directly or through its agents or bailees) other than the Applicable Possessory Collateral Agent, such Collateral Agent shall deliver such Possessory Collateral to (or shall cause such Possessory Collateral to be delivered to) the Applicable Possessory Collateral Agent and shall take all actions reasonably requested in writing by the Applicable Possessory Collateral Agent to cause the Applicable Possessory Collateral Agent to have

possession or control of same. Pending such delivery to the Applicable Possessory Collateral Agent, each other Collateral Agent agrees to hold any Possessory Collateral as gratuitous bailee for the benefit of each other Secured Party and any assignee, solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted in such Possessory Collateral, if any, pursuant to the applicable ABL Facility Security Documents, Senior Secured Note Security Documents or Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Security Documents, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.12.

(b) The duties or responsibilities of the Possessory Collateral Agent and each other Collateral Agent under this Section 2.12 shall be limited solely to holding the Possessory Collateral as gratuitous bailee for the benefit of each Secured Party for purposes of perfecting the security interest held by the Secured Parties therein.

(c) Upon the Discharge of all Senior Secured Lien Obligations, each Senior Priority Collateral Agent shall deliver to the ABL Facility Collateral Agent, to the extent that it is legally permitted to do so, the remaining Possessory Collateral (if any) held by it, together with any necessary endorsements (or otherwise allow the ABL Facility Collateral Agent to obtain control of such Possessory Collateral) or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. The Company shall take such further action as is required to effectuate the transfer contemplated hereby and shall indemnify the Possessory Collateral Agent for loss or damage suffered by the Possessory Collateral Agent as a result of such transfer except for loss or damage suffered by the Possessory Collateral Agent as a result of its own willful misconduct or gross negligence. No Senior Priority Collateral Agent shall be obligated to follow instructions from the ABL Facility Collateral Agent in contravention of this Agreement.

Each Representative may rely conclusively, and shall be fully protected in so relying, on any determination made by it in accordance with the provisions of the preceding sentence (or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction) and shall have no liability to Holdings or any of its subsidiaries, any Secured Party or any other Person as a result of such determination.

(a) pursuant to this Agreement or any Senior Secured Note Document or Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Document with respect to any ABL Priority Collateral in any manner that would cause a default under any ABL Facility Document, or (b) pursuant to this Agreement or any ABL Facility Document with respect to any Notes Priority Collateral in any manner that would cause a default under any Senior Secured Note Document or Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Document.

If so permitted, the Company shall (i) notify each Representative in writing of such designation and (ii) cause the (1) applicable Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Agent and the applicable Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Collateral Agent or (2) the additional collateral agent for the new ABL Obligations, as applicable, to execute and deliver to each other Representative, a Joinder Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit A or Exhibit B, as applicable, hereto.

SECTION 6.15. Other Junior Intercreditor Agreements. In the event that the Company or any subsidiary incurs any obligations secured by a lien on any Collateral that is junior to the Senior Secured Lien Obligations and the ABL Obligations, then the parties hereto all agree and acknowledge that the ABL Facility Collateral Agent shall act as the agent for the Trustee, the Senior Secured Notes Collateral Agent, any Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Agents and any Other Senior Secured Lien Obligations Collateral Agents, in connection with entering into a joinder to any future intercreditor agreement with the agents or trustees for the lenders with respect to such secured obligation to reflect the relative lien priorities of such parties with respect to the Collateral and governing the relative rights, benefits and privileges as among such parties in respect of the Collateral, including as to application of proceeds of the Collateral, voting rights, control of the Collateral and waivers with respect to the Collateral, in each case so long as such secured obligations are permitted under, and the terms of such intercreditor agreement do not violate or conflict with, the provisions of this Agreement or the other ABL Facility Documents or Senior Secured Lien Obligations Documents, as the case may be. With respect to any Collateral, the ABL Facility Collateral Agent will take direction from the

Applicable Collateral Agent that is at the time entitled to enforce remedies with respect to such Collateral under this Agreement. If any such intercreditor agreement (or similar arrangement) is entered into, the provisions thereof shall not be (or be construed to be) an amendment, modification or other change to this Agreement or any other ABL Facility Document or Senior Secured Lien Obligations Documents, and the provisions of this Agreement and the other ABL Facility Documents and Senior Secured Lien Obligations Documents shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof (as such provisions may be amended, modified or otherwise supplemented from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, including to give effect to any intercreditor agreement (or similar arrangement)).

SECTION 6.16. Senior Secured Notes Collateral Agent. The Senior Secured Notes Collateral Agent shall be entitled to all rights, protections and indemnities provided under the Indenture with respect to its actions hereunder (but solely to the extent provided under the Indenture).
