“Senior Loan Documents” means the Loan Documents as defined in the Senior DIP Agreement (as in effect on the date hereof).

“Senior Obligations” means all Obligations (as defined in the Senior DIP Agreement) and other obligations owing by any Loan Party to the Senior Lender, whether such debt, liability or obligation now exists or is hereafter created or incurred, and whether it is or may be direct or indirect, due or to become due, absolute or contingent, primary or secondary, liquidated or unliquidated, or joint, several or joint and several, including but not limited to the indebtedness evidenced by any Senior DIP Agreement, in each case, issued or incurred in connection with, under or pursuant to, the Senior DIP Agreement and the other Loan Documents (as defined in the Senior DIP Agreement), including all interest, fees, costs and expenses of collection, including attorneys fee; and legal expenses, and all renewals, extensions and modifications thereof and any notes issued in whole or partial substitution therefor.

At all times from and after the date of this Agreement and until the Senior Indebtedness Termination Date, the Subordinated Lender shall not, without the prior written consent of the Senior Lender, demand, receive or accept any direct or indirect payment or distribution of any kind or character whatsoever (whether in cash, securities, other property, by set-off, or otherwise) on account of the Subordinated Obligations, other than Permitted Junior Payments. Under no circumstance shall any Secured Lender Remedy be taken by the Subordinated Lender against any Loan Party or the Collateral until the Senior Indebtedness Termination Date has occurred, in each case with respect to any of the Subordinated

-4-

Obligations (including to assert, enforce or collect any of the Subordinated Obligations), in each case, except with the prior written consent of the Senior Lender.

a) Acknowledgment of Lien. Each Lender agrees and acknowledges that the other Lender has been granted a Lien upon the Collateral.

b) Priority. Notwithstanding the order or time of attachment, or the order, time or manner of perfection, or the order or time of filing or recordation of any document or instrument, or other method of perfecting a Lien in favor of each Lender in any Collateral and notwithstanding any conflicting terms or conditions which may be contained in any other agreement, until the Senior Indebtedness Termination Date, the Liens upon the Collateral securing the Senior Obligations shall have priority over the Liens upon the Collateral securing the Subordinated Obligations and such Liens securing the Subordinated Obligations are and shall be, in all respects, subject and subordinate to the Liens securing the Senior Obligations to the full extent of the Senior Obligations outstanding from time to time; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the foregoing, the Liens upon the Junior DIP Account Collateral and the Junior DIP Lender Holdback securing the Subordinated Obligations shall have priority over the Liens upon the Junior DIP Account Collateral and the Junior DIP Lender Holdback securing the Senior Obligations, and the Liens upon the Junior DIP Account Collateral and the Junior DIP Lender Holdback securing the Senior Obligations are and shall be, in all respects, subject and subordinate to the Liens upon the Junior DIP Account Collateral and the Junior DIP Lender Holdback securing the Subordinated Obligations to the full extent of the Subordinated Obligations outstanding from time to time.

c) No Alteration of Priority. The Lien priorities provided in Section 3(b) of this Agreement shall not be altered or otherwise affected by any amendment, modification, supplement, extension, renewal, restatement or refinancing of the Senior Obligations or the Subordinated Obligations, nor by any action or inaction which Senior Lender or the Subordinated Lender may take or fail to take in respect of the Collateral nor by any order of the Bankruptcy Court.

d) Perfection. Each Lender shall be solely responsible for perfecting and maintaining the perfection of its respective security interest in the Collateral. The foregoing provisions of this Agreement are intended solely to govern the respective Lien priorities between the Lenders and shall not impose on the Senior Lender any obligations in respect of the disposition of proceeds of foreclosure on any Collateral which would conflict with prior perfected claims therein in favor of any other Person. Subordinated Lender agrees that it will not contest the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens of the Senior Lender in the Collateral and that as between the Lenders, the terms of this Agreement shall govern even if part or all of the Senior Obligations or the Liens of Senior Lender securing payment and performance thereof are avoided, disallowed, set aside or otherwise invalidated in any judicial proceeding or otherwise.

e) Management of Collateral. Senior Lender shall have the exclusive right to manage, perform and enforce the terms of the Senior DIP Agreement with respect to the Collateral (other than the Junior DIP Account) and to exercise and enforce all privileges and rights thereunder according to its discretion and exercise of its business judgment including, without limitation, the exclusive right to take or retake control or possession of the Collateral (other than the Junior DIP Account) and to hold, prepare for sale, process, sell, lease, dispose of, or liquidate the Collateral (other than the Junior DIP Account). The Senior Lender shall not have any duty to preserve, protect, care for, insure, take possession of, collect, dispose of, or otherwise realize upon any of the Collateral, and in no event shall the Senior Lender be deemed the agent for the Subordinated Lender with respect to the Collateral. In connection therewith,

-5-

Subordinated Lender hereby waives and all rights to affect the method or challenge the appropriateness of any action by Senior Lender.

f) Sale of Collateral. Only the Senior Lender shall have the right to restrict or permit, or approve or disapprove, the sale, transfer or other disposition of Collateral (other than the Junior DIP Account). Subordinated Lender will, promptly upon the reasonable written request of Senior Lender (but no later than two (2) Business Days thereafter), release or otherwise terminate its Liens upon the Collateral (other than the Junior DIP Account), to the extent such Collateral is sold or otherwise disposed of either by Senior Lender, its agents, or any Loan Party with the consent of Senior Lender, in each case, to the extent that Senior Lender also concurrently releases its Liens on such Collateral, in each case, other than in connection with the Senior Indebtedness Termination Date provided, that any such release by Subordinated Lender shall not extend to or otherwise affect any of the rights, if any, of Subordinated Lender to the proceeds from any such sale, transfer or other disposition of any Collateral. To the extent the Subordinated Lender’s consent is required to sell, transfer or dispose of the Collateral (other than the Junior DIP Account), the Subordinated Lender shall promptly, upon the request of the Senior Lender (but no later than two (2) Business Days thereafter), provide its consent to such sale to the same extent as the Senior Lender shall have provided its consent. The Senior Lender agrees that it shall provide prior notice of any sale, transfer or other disposition of Collateral pursuant to this clause (f) in the manner required by the Uniform Commercial Code. In accordance with the provisions of applicable law, the Liens of Subordinated Lender shall automatically attach to any proceeds of any Collateral subject to any such sale, transfer or other disposition to the extent not used to repay Senior Obligations.

g) Secured Lender Remedies. In no event shall Subordinated Lender exercise any Secured Lender Remedies (other than with respect to the Junior DIP Account or the Junior DIP Lender Holdback) until the Senior Indebtedness Termination Date.

h) Notice and Waiver of Marshaling. Subordinated Lender and Senior Lender acknowledge that this Agreement shall constitute notice of their respective interests in the Collateral and each hereby waive any right to compel any marshaling of any of the Collateral.

i) Prohibition on Contesting Liens. In respect of any Collateral, the Subordinated Lender agrees that it shall not, and hereby waives any right to, directly or indirectly:

j) No New Liens or Guaranties. Until the Senior Indebtedness Termination Date, the Subordinated Lender shall not (i) acquire or hold any Lien on any assets of any Loan Party securing any Subordinated Obligations which assets are not also subject to the Lien of the Senior Lender under the Senior Loan Documents, subject to the Lien priority set forth herein or (ii) accept any guarantee, indemnity or any other assurance or form of recourse (collectively, the “Guarantee”) against loss by any Person in respect of any or all of the Subordinated Obligations if such Person does not also provide a Guarantee to the Senior

-6-

Lender in respect of the Senior Obligations on substantially similar terms. If the Subordinated Lender shall (nonetheless and in breach hereof) acquire or hold any Lien on any assets of any Loan Party securing any Subordinated Obligation or accept any Guarantee which assets are not also subject to the Lien of the Senior Lender under the Senior Loan Documents and/or Senior Lender does not receive a Guarantee on substantially similar terms, then the Subordinated Lender shall, without the need for any further consent and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any other Junior DIP Loan Document, be deemed to also hold and have held such Lien or Guarantee for the benefit of the Senior Lender as security for the Senior Obligations (subject to the Lien priority and other terms hereof) and shall promptly notify the Senior Lender in writing of the existence of such Lien or Guarantee.

k) Separate Liens. Subordinated Lender and the Senior Lender hereby agree, and the Loan Parties hereby acknowledge, that (a) the grants of Liens pursuant to the Senior Loan Documents and the Junior DIP Loan Documents constitute separate and distinct grants of Liens and (b) because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Collateral, the Subordinated Obligations in respect of any Collateral is fundamentally different from the Senior Obligations in respect of such Collateral, and the Subordinated Obligations and the Senior Obligations in respect of any Collateral must be separately classified in the Chapter 11 Cases. To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, if it is held that, in respect of any Collateral, the Subordinated Obligations and the Senior Obligations in respect of the Collateral constitute only one secured claim (rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims), then the Subordinated Lender hereby acknowledges and agrees that all Distributions in respect of such Collateral shall be made as if there were separate classes of senior and junior secured claims in respect of such Collateral (with the effect that, to the extent that the aggregate value of such Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the Subordinated Lender), until the Senior Indebtedness Termination Date, the Senior Lender shall be entitled to receive, in addition to all Distributions received by it in respect of the Senior Obligations, all amounts owing on the Senior Obligations before any Distribution is made in respect of the claims held by the Subordinated Lender). The Subordinated Lender hereby agrees to turn over to the Senior Lender any Distributions otherwise received or receivable by them to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this Section 3, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing the claim or recovery of the Subordinated Lender.

If the Subordinated Lender receives any payment on account of the Subordinated Obligations (other than any Permitted Junior Payments) prior to the Senior Indebtedness Termination Date, the Subordinated Lender will hold the amount so received in trust for the Senior Lender, and will forthwith turn over such payment to the Senior Lender in the form received (along with the endorsement of the Subordinated Lender where necessary) for application to then-existing Senior Obligations (whether or not due), in accordance with the Senior Loan Documents then remaining unpaid until the Senior Indebtedness Termination Date.

The Subordinated Lender shall not, without the consent of the Senior Lender, (i) amend, restate, supplement, or otherwise modify in any manner the Junior DIP Term Sheet or (ii) enter into the definitive financing documentation referenced in clause (v) of the defined term “Secured Lender Remedies” inconsistent with the requirements thereof.

-7-

The Subordinated Lender will not exercise, enforce or take any Secured Lender Remedy available to the Subordinated Lender with respect to any Collateral (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any right to credit bid in any sale pursuant to section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code in the Chapter 11 Cases), unless and until the Senior Indebtedness Termination Date has occurred.

All proceeds received with respect to any Collateral (other than Collateral consisting of the Junior DIP Account or the Junior DIP Lender Holdback) shall be applied to the Senior Obligation until the Senior Indebtedness Termination Date, and thereafter shall be applied to the Subordinated Obligations. All Junior DIP Account Collateral and the Junior DIP Lender Holdback shall be applied to the Subordinated Obligations until the Subordinated Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full in immediately available funds, and thereafter shall be applied to the Senior Obligations.

The Subordinated Lender agrees that it will not at any time prior to the Senior Indebtedness Termination Date:

-8-

Prior to the Senior Indebtedness Termination Date, the Subordinated Lender will not, without the prior written consent of the Senior Lender, assign, transfer or pledge to any other person, any of the Subordinated Obligations, and any such transfer in violation of this Section 9 shall be null and void.

This Agreement shall constitute a continuing and irrevocable subordination agreement until the Senior Indebtedness Termination Date, and the Senior Lender may, without notice to or consent by the Subordinated Lender, subject to the terms and conditions of the Senior DIP Agreement and this Agreement, modify any term of the Senior Indebtedness in reliance upon this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Senior Lender may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to the Subordinated Lender and without incurring responsibility to the Subordinated Lender or impairing or releasing any of the rights of the Senior Lender or of the Subordinated Obligations hereunder:

(i) change the interest rate or change the amount of payment or extend the time for payment or renew or otherwise alter the terms of any Senior Indebtedness or any instrument evidencing the same in any manner;

(ii) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property at any time securing payment of the Senior Obligations (other than the Junior DIP Account or the Junior DIP Lender Holdback) or any part thereof;

(iii) release anyone liable in any manner for the payment or collection of the Senior Obligations or any part thereof;

(iv) exercise or refrain from exercising any right against the Loan Parties or any other person (including the Subordinated Lender); and

(v) apply any sums received by the Senior Lender, by whomsoever paid and however realized, to the Senior Obligations in such manner as the Senior Lender shall deem appropriate.

None of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or construed to constitute or imply any commitment or obligation on the part of the Senior Lender to make any future loans or other extensions of credit or financial accommodations to the Borrowers. None of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or construed to constitute or imply any commitment or obligation on the part of the Subordinated Lender to make any future loans or other extensions of credit or financial accommodations to the Borrowers.
