In the event any Junior Representative or any Junior Secured Party becomes a judgment lien creditor in respect of an item of Shared Collateral as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor in respect of Junior Obligations, such judgment lien shall be subordinated to the Liens securing the applicable Senior Obligations on the same basis as the other Liens securing such Junior Obligations are so subordinated to such Liens securing such Senior Obligations under this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall impair or otherwise adversely affect any rights or remedies the Senior Representative or the Senior Secured Parties may have with respect to such item of Shared Collateral.
Section 5.05. Gratuitous Bailee for Perfection.
(a) The Senior Representative with respect to any item of Shared Collateral acknowledges and agrees that if it shall at any time hold a Lien securing any Senior Obligations with respect to such item of Shared Collateral that can be perfected by the possession or control of such item of Shared Collateral or of any account in which such item of Shared Collateral is held, and if such item of Shared Collateral or any such account is in fact in the possession or under the control of such Senior Representative, or of agents or bailees of such Senior Representative (such item of Shared Collateral being referred to herein as the “Pledged or Controlled Collateral”), or if it shall at any time obtain any landlord waiver or bailee’s letter or any similar agreement or arrangement granting it rights or access to such item of Shared Collateral, such Senior Representative shall also hold such Pledged or Controlled Collateral, or take such actions with respect to such landlord waiver, bailee’s letter or similar agreement or arrangement, as subagent or gratuitous bailee for the relevant Junior Representative, in each case solely for the purpose of perfecting the Liens granted under the relevant Debt Facility governing the applicable Junior Obligations and subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2.01 and this Section 5.05.
(b) In the event that the Senior Representative with respect to an item of Shared Collateral that is Intellectual Property (or its agents or bailees) has Lien filings against such Intellectual Property that are necessary for the perfection of Liens in such Shared Collateral, the Senior Representative agrees to hold such Liens as sub-agent and gratuitous bailee for the relevant Junior Representative and any assignee thereof, solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted in such Liens pursuant to the Debt Facility governing the applicable Junior Obligations, subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2.01 and this Section 5.05.
(c) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, until the Discharge of Senior Obligations with respect to an item of Shared Collateral has occurred, the Senior Representative with respect to such item of Shared Collateral shall be entitled to deal with the Pledged or Controlled Collateral in accordance with the terms of the Debt Facility governing the applicable Senior Obligations as if the Liens securing the relevant Junior Obligations did not exist. The rights of the Junior Representatives and the Junior Secured Parties with respect to the relevant Pledged or Controlled Collateral shall at all times be subject to the terms of this Agreement.
22 |
(d) No Senior Representative with respect to an item of Shared Collateral shall have any obligation whatsoever to the Junior Representative or any Junior Secured Party with respect to such item of Shared Collateral to assure that any of the Pledged or Controlled Collateral is genuine or owned by the Grantors or to protect or preserve rights or benefits of any Person or any rights pertaining to the Shared Collateral, except as expressly set forth in this Section 5.05. The duties or responsibilities of each Senior Representative under this Section 5.05 shall be limited solely to holding or controlling the applicable Shared Collateral and the related Liens referred to in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 5.05 as sub-agent and gratuitous bailee for the relevant Junior Representative for purposes of perfecting the Lien held by such Junior Representative.
(e) No Senior Representative shall have by reason of this Agreement, or any other document, a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Junior Representative or any Junior Secured Party, and each Junior Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Junior Secured Party under its Debt Facility, hereby waives and releases each Senior Representative from all claims and liabilities arising pursuant to such Senior Representative’s role under this Section 5.05 as sub-agent and gratuitous bailee with respect to the Shared Collateral.
(f) Upon the Discharge of Senior Obligations with respect to any item of Intellectual Property that is Shared Collateral, each Senior Representative with respect to such item of Shared Collateral shall, at the Grantors’ sole cost and expense, (i) (A) deliver to the Junior Representative, to the extent that it is legally permitted to do so, such item of Shared Collateral, including all proceeds thereof remaining after the Discharge of such Senior Obligations, held or controlled by such Senior Representative or any of its agents or bailees, including the transfer of possession and control, as applicable, of the Pledged or Controlled Collateral, together with any necessary endorsements and notices to depositary banks, securities intermediaries and commodities intermediaries, and assign its rights under any landlord waiver or bailee’s letter or any similar agreement or arrangement granting it rights or access to Shared Collateral, or (B) direct and deliver such item of Shared Collateral as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct, (ii) notify any applicable insurance carrier that it is no longer entitled to be a loss payee or additional insured under the insurance policies of any Grantor issued by such insurance carrier and (iii) notify any governmental authority involved in any condemnation or similar proceeding involving any Grantor that the Junior Representative is entitled to approve any awards granted in such proceeding. The Borrower and the other Grantors shall take such further action as is required to effectuate the transfer contemplated hereby and shall indemnify each Senior Representative for loss or damage suffered by such Senior Representative as a result of such transfer, except for loss or damage suffered by such Senior Representative as a result of its own willful misconduct, gross negligence or bad faith. No Senior Representative has any obligation to follow instructions from the Junior Representative in contravention of this Agreement.
(g) Neither the Senior Representative nor any of the other Senior Secured Parties with respect to any item of Shared Collateral shall be required to marshal any present or future collateral security for any obligations of the Borrower or any other Grantor to such Senior Representative or Senior Secured Party or any assurance of payment in respect thereof, or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of their rights in respect of such collateral security or any assurance of payment in respect thereof shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights, however existing or arising.

Section 5.06. When Discharge of Senior Obligations Deemed to Not Have Occurred. If, at any time substantially concurrently with or after the Discharge of Senior Obligations with respect to any item of Shared Collateral has occurred, the Borrower or any other Grantor incurs any such Senior Obligations (other than in respect of the payment of indemnities surviving the Discharge of such Senior Obligations), then such Discharge of Senior Obligations shall automatically be deemed not to have occurred for all purposes of this Agreement (other than with respect to any actions taken prior to the date of such designation as a result of the occurrence of such first Discharge of Senior Obligations) and the applicable agreement governing such Senior Obligations shall automatically be treated as a Debt Facility for all purposes of this Agreement, including for purposes of the Lien priorities and rights in respect of such Shared Collateral set forth herein and the granting by the Senior Representative of amendments, waivers and consents hereunder and the agent, representative or trustee for the holders of such Senior Obligations shall be the Senior Representative for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon receipt of notice of such incurrence (including the identity of the new Senior Representative), each Junior Representatives with respect to any item of Shared Collateral shall promptly (a) enter into such documents and agreements (at the expense of the Borrower), including amendments or supplements to this Agreement, as the Borrower or such new Senior Representative shall reasonably request in writing in order to provide the new Senior Representative the rights of a Senior Representative contemplated hereby, (b) deliver to the Senior Representative, to the extent that it is legally permitted to do so, such item of Shared Collateral, including all proceeds thereof, held or controlled by such Junior Representative or any of its agents or bailees, including the transfer of possession and control, as applicable, of the Pledged or Controlled Collateral, together with any necessary endorsements and notices to depositary banks, securities intermediaries and commodities intermediaries, and assign its rights under any landlord waiver or bailee’s letter or any similar agreement or arrangement granting it rights or access to such item of Shared Collateral, (c) notify any applicable insurance carrier that it is no longer entitled to be a loss payee or additional insured under the insurance policies of any Grantor issued by such insurance carrier and (d) notify any governmental authority involved in any condemnation or similar proceeding involving a Grantor that the new Senior Representative is entitled to approve any awards granted in such proceeding.
Article VI
Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings.
Section 6.01. Sale Issues. Until the Discharge of Senior Obligations with respect to an item of Shared Collateral has occurred, each Junior Representative with respect to such item of Shared Collateral, for itself and on behalf of each Junior Secured Party under its Debt Facility, agrees that it will (as applicable) raise no objection to and will not otherwise contest (a) any motion for relief from the automatic stay or from any injunction against foreclosure or enforcement in respect of Senior Obligations with respect to such item of Shared Collateral made by the Senior Representative or any other Senior Secured Party, (b) any lawful exercise by any Senior Secured Party of the right to credit bid Senior Obligations at any sale in foreclosure of Senior Collateral (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision under any other applicable Bankruptcy Law) or to exercise any rights under Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of any other Bankruptcy Law with respect to the such item of Shared Collateral, (c) any other request for judicial relief made in any court by any Senior Secured Party relating to the lawful enforcement of any Lien on such item of Shared Collateral or (d) any order relating to a sale or other disposition of the such item of Shared Collateral for which the Senior Representative has consented that provides, to the extent such sale or other disposition is to be free and clear of Liens, that the Liens securing the Senior Obligations and the Junior Obligations will attach to the proceeds of the sale on the same basis of priority as the Liens on such item of Shared Collateral securing the Senior Obligations rank to the Liens on such item of Shared Collateral securing the Junior Obligations pursuant to this Agreement, provided that the Junior Secured Parties may assert any objection to the proposed bidding or related procedures to be utilized in connection with any sale or disposition that could be asserted by an unsecured creditor in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding; without limiting the foregoing, each Junior Representative with respect to an item of Shared Collateral, for itself and on behalf of each Junior Secured Party under its Debt Facility, agrees that it may not raise any objections based on rights afforded by Sections 363(e) or Section 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of any other Bankruptcy Law. In addition, the Junior Secured Parties are not deemed to have waived any rights to credit bid on such item of Shared Collateral in any such sale or disposition in accordance with Section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision with respect to an item of Shared Collateral under any other applicable Bankruptcy Law), so long as any such credit bid provides for the payment in full in cash of the Senior Obligations with respect to any item of Shared Collateral.
24 |
Section 6.02. Relief from the Automatic Stay. Until the Discharge of Senior Obligations with respect to an item of Shared Collateral has occurred, each Junior Representative with respect to such item of Shared Collateral, for itself and on behalf of each Junior Secured Party under its Debt Facility with respect to such item of Shared Collateral, agrees that none of them shall seek relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or take any action in derogation thereof, in each case in respect of such item of Shared Collateral, without the prior written consent of such Senior Representative.
Section 6.03. DIP Financing. If the Borrower or any other Grantor shall be subject to any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and any Senior Secured Party shall desire to provide financing under Section 363 or Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of any other Bankruptcy Law to be secured by Senior Collateral of such Senior Secured Party (“DIP Financing”), then each Junior Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Junior Secured Party under its Debt Facility with respect to such Shared Collateral, agrees that it will raise no objection to such DIP Financing to the extent the Liens securing such Senior Obligations are subordinated to or pari passu with such DIP Financing, will subordinate (and will be deemed hereunder to have subordinated) its Liens in such Shared Collateral to (x) such DIP Financing (and all obligations relating thereto) on the same basis as the Liens securing such Junior Obligations are so subordinated to Liens securing such Senior Obligations under this Agreement, (y) any adequate protection Liens provided to such Senior Secured Party, and (z) to any “carve-out” for professional and United States Trustee fees agreed to by the such Senior Secured Party, and such Junior Secured Parties, agree that notice received two Business Days prior to the entry of an order approving such usage of cash or other collateral or approving such DIP Financing shall be adequate notice.
Section 6.04. Preference Issues. If any Senior Secured Party with respect to an item of Shared Collateral is required in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise to disgorge, turn over or otherwise pay such item of Shared Collateral or proceeds thereof, to the estate of the Borrower or any other Grantor (or any trustee, receiver or similar Person therefor), because the payment of such amount was declared to be fraudulent or preferential in any respect or for any other reason, any amount (a “Recovery”), whether received as proceeds, enforcement of any right of setoff, recoupment or otherwise, then such Senior Obligations shall be reinstated to the extent of such Recovery and deemed to be outstanding as if such payment had not occurred and the Senior Secured Parties shall still be entitled to a future Discharge of Senior Obligations with respect to such item of Shared Collateral with respect to all such recovered amounts. 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. Each Junior Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Junior Secured Party under its Debt Facility, hereby agrees that none of them shall be entitled to benefit from any avoidance action affecting or otherwise relating to any distribution or allocation made in accordance with this Agreement, whether by preference or otherwise, it being understood and agreed that the benefit of such avoidance action otherwise allocable to them shall instead be allocated and turned over for application in accordance with the priorities set forth in this Agreement.
25 |
Section 6.05. Separate Grants of Security and Separate Classifications. Each Junior Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Junior Secured Party under its Debt Facility, acknowledges and agrees that (a) the Junior Secured Parties’ claims against the Grantors in respect of their Liens on any item of Shared Collateral constitute junior claims separate and apart (and of a different class) from the senior claims of the Senior Secured Parties against the Grantors in respect of such item of Shared Collateral, and (b) because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Shared Collateral, the Junior Obligations are fundamentally different from the Senior Obligations and must be separately classified in any Plan of Reorganization proposed, confirmed, or adopted 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 Senior Secured Parties and the Junior Secured Parties in respect of any item of Shared Collateral constitute only a single class of claims (rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims), then each Junior Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Junior Secured Party under its Debt Facility, hereby acknowledges and agrees that all distributions from such item of Shared Collateral shall be made as if there were separate classes of senior and junior secured claims against the Grantors in respect of such item of such item of Shared Collateral (with the effect being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of such item of Shared Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the Junior Secured Parties)), the Senior Secured Parties 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, and expenses (whether or not allowed or allowable in such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding) before any distribution is made from the Shared Collateral in respect of the Junior Obligations, with each Junior Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Junior Secured Party under its Debt Facility, hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the Senior Representative amounts otherwise received or receivable by them from such item of Shared Collateral to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing the claim or recovery of the Junior Secured Parties. This Section 6.05 is intended to govern the relationship between the classes of claims held by the Junior Secured Parties, on the one hand, and a collective class of claims comprised of the Senior Secured Parties (as opposed to separate classes of each such series of claims), on the other hand.
Section 6.06. No Waivers of Rights of Senior Secured Parties. Nothing contained herein shall, except as expressly provided herein, prohibit or in any way limit the Senior Representative, or any other Senior Secured Party with respect to an item of Shared Collateral from objecting in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise to any action taken by any Junior Secured Party with respect to such item of Shared Collateral, including the seeking by any Junior Secured Party of adequate protection or the asserting by any Junior Secured Party of any of its rights and remedies under the its Debt Facility or otherwise.
Section 6.07. Application. This Agreement, which the parties hereto expressly acknowledge is a “subordination agreement” under Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of any other Bankruptcy Law, shall be effective before, during and after the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. The relative rights as to the Shared Collateral and proceeds thereof shall continue after the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding on the same basis as prior to the date of the petition therefor, subject to any court order approving the financing of, or use of cash collateral by, any Grantor. All references herein to any Grantor shall include such Grantor as a debtor-in-possession and any receiver or trustee for such Grantor.
Section 6.08. Other Matters. To the extent that any Junior Representative or any Junior Secured Party with respect to any item of Shared Collateral has or acquires rights under Section 363 or Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of any other Bankruptcy Law with respect to such item of Shared Collateral, such Junior Representative, on behalf of itself and each Junior Secured Party under its Debt Facility, agrees not to assert any such rights without the prior written consent of the Senior Representative with respect to such item of Shared Collateral, provided that if requested by such Senior Representative, such Junior Representative shall timely exercise such rights in the manner requested by such Senior Representative, including any rights to payments in respect of such rights.
26 |
Section 6.09. 506(c) Claims. Until the Discharge of Senior Obligations with respect to such item of Shared Collateral has occurred, each Junior Representative, on behalf of itself and each Junior Secured Party under its Debt Facility with respect to such item of Shared Collateral agrees that it will not assert or enforce any claim under Section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of any other Bankruptcy Law senior to or on a parity with the Liens securing such Senior Obligations for costs or expenses of preserving or disposing of such item of Shared Collateral.
Section 6.10. Reorganization Securities. If, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, debt obligations of the reorganized debtor secured by Liens upon any property of the reorganized debtor are distributed, pursuant to a Plan of Reorganization on account of both the Senior Obligations and the Junior Obligations, then, to the extent the debt obligations distributed on account of the Senior Obligations and on account of the Junior Obligations are secured by Liens upon the same assets or property, the provisions of this Agreement will survive the distribution of such debt obligations pursuant to such plan and will apply with like effect to the Liens securing such debt obligations. Nothing herein shall prohibit any Junior Secured Party from receiving Permitted Junior Securities in any such Plan of Reorganization.
Article VII
Reliance; etc.
Section 7.01. [reserved]
Section 7.02. Obligations Unconditional. All rights, interests, agreements and obligations of each Representative and each Secured Party hereunder shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of:
(a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Debt Facility;
(b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other terms of, all or any of the Senior Obligations or Junior Obligations with respect to any item of Shared Collateral, or any amendment or waiver or other modification, including any increase in the amount thereof, whether by course of conduct or otherwise, of the terms of Debt Facility;
(c) any exchange of any security interest in any item of Shared Collateral or any other collateral or any amendment, waiver or other modification, whether in writing or by course of conduct or otherwise, of all or any of the Senior Obligations or Junior Obligations with respect to such item of Shared Collateral or any guarantee thereof;
(d) the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Borrower or any other Grantor; or
(e) any other circumstances that otherwise might constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower or any other Grantor in respect of the Senior Obligations or Junior Obligations with respect to any item of Shared Collateral.

The rights and remedies of the parties hereto are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice or demand on any party hereto in any case shall entitle such party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

Except as otherwise provided herein, each Junior Representative, on behalf of itself and each Junior Secured Party under its Debt Facility, assents to any such extension or postponement of the time of payment of the Senior Obligations with respect to such item of Shared Collateral or any part thereof and to any other indulgence with respect thereto, to any substitution, exchange or release of any security that may at any time secure any part of such Senior Obligations and to the addition or release of any other Person primarily or secondarily liable therefor.
Section 8.07. Additional Grantors. The Borrower agrees that, if any Subsidiary of the Borrower shall become a Grantor after the date hereof, it will promptly cause such Subsidiary to become party hereto by executing and delivering an instrument in the form of Annex II. Upon such execution and delivery, such Subsidiary will become a Grantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Grantor herein. The execution and delivery of such instrument shall not require the consent of any other party hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Grantor as a party to this Agreement.
Section 8.08. Dealings with Grantors. Upon any application or demand by the Borrower or any Grantor to the Senior Representative or the Junior Representative with respect to an item of Shared Collateral to take or permit any action under any of the provisions of this Agreement or under any Debt Facility (if such action is subject to the provisions hereof), the Borrower or such Grantor, as appropriate, shall furnish to the Junior Representative or the Senior Representative with respect to such item of Shared Collateral a certificate of an appropriate officer (an “Officer’s Certificate”) stating that all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Agreement or such Debt Facility, as the case may be, relating to the proposed action have been complied with, except that in the case of any such application or demand as to which the furnishing of such documents is specifically required by any provision of this Agreement or any Debt Facility relating to such particular application or demand, no additional certificate or opinion need be furnished.
Section 8.09. Additional Debt Facilities. To the extent, but only to the extent, permitted by the provisions of all of the then extant Debt Facilities, the Borrower may incur or issue and sell one or more series or classes of Additional Debt. Any such additional class or series of may be secured by a junior priority, subordinated Lien on any item of Shared Collateral or by a senior Lien on any item of Shared Collateral (but in no event will such Lien on any item of Shared Collateral be senior to, or have priority over (a) the Lien of the StarBuds Seller Secured Parties or StarBuds Collateral Agent in the Priority StarBuds Seller Collateral, (b) the Lien of the Credit Agreement Secured Parties or Credit Agreement Collateral Agent in the Priority Credit Agreement Collateral, or (c) the Lien of the Convertible Notes Secured Parties or the Convertible Notes Collateral Agent in the Priority Convertible Notes Collateral, in each case without the prior written consent of the affected party), if and subject to the condition that the Representative of any such Additional Debt becomes a party to this Agreement by satisfying the conditions set forth in clauses (i) through (iv), as applicable, of the immediately succeeding paragraph.
