SECTION 2. Lien Priorities.
2.1 Relative Priorities. Notwithstanding the date, time, method, manner or order of grant, attachment or perfection of any Liens securing the Second Lien Obligations granted on the Collateral or of any Liens securing the First Lien Obligations granted on the Collateral and notwithstanding any provision of the UCC or any other applicable law or the Second Lien Notes Documents or any defect or deficiencies in, or failure to perfect or lapse in perfection of, or avoidance as a fraudulent conveyance or otherwise of, the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations, the subordination of such Liens to any other Liens, or any other circumstance whatsoever, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against the Company or any other Grantor, the Second Lien Notes Agent, for itself and on behalf of each other Second Lien Claimholder, hereby agrees that:
(a) any Lien on the Collateral securing any First Lien Obligations now or hereafter held by or on behalf of the First Lien Collateral Agent or any First Lien Claimholders or any agent or trustee therefor, regardless of how acquired, whether by grant, possession, statute, operation of law, subrogation or otherwise, shall be senior in all respects and prior to any Lien on the Collateral securing any Second Lien Obligations;
(b) any Lien on the Collateral securing any Second Lien Obligations now or hereafter held by or on behalf of the Second Lien Notes Agent, any Second Lien Claimholders or any agent or trustee therefor regardless of how acquired, whether by grant, possession, statute, operation of law, subrogation or otherwise, shall be junior and subordinate in all respects to all Liens on the Collateral securing any First Lien Obligations. All Liens on the Collateral securing any First Lien Obligations shall be and remain senior in all respects and prior to all Liens on the Collateral securing any Second Lien Obligations for all purposes, whether or not such Liens securing any First Lien Obligations are subordinated to any Lien securing any other obligation of the Company, any other Grantor or any other Person;
(c) any Lien on the Collateral securing any Excess First Lien Obligations now or hereafter held by or on behalf of the First Lien Collateral Agent, any First Lien Claimholders or any agent or trustee therefor, regardless of how acquired, whether by grant, possession, statute, operation of law, subrogation or otherwise, shall be junior and subordinate in all respects to any Lien on the Collateral securing any Second Lien Obligations; and
(d) any Lien on the Collateral securing any Excess Second Lien Obligation now or hereafter held by or on behalf of the Second Lien Notes Agent or any Second Lien Claimholders or any agent or trustee therefor, regardless of how acquired, whether by grant, possession, statute, operation of law, subrogation or otherwise, shall be junior and subordinate in all respects to any Lien on the Collateral securing any First Lien Obligations or any Excess First Lien Obligations.
2.2 Prohibition on Contesting Liens; No Marshaling. Each of the Second Lien Notes Agent, for itself and on behalf of each other Second Lien Claimholder, and the First Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of each other First Lien Claimholder, agrees that it will not (and hereby waives any right to) directly or indirectly contest or support any other Person in contesting, in any proceeding (including any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding), the priority,
12

validity, perfection, extent or enforceability of a Lien held, or purported to be held, by or on behalf of any of the First Lien Claimholders in the First Lien Collateral or by or on behalf of any of the Second Lien Claimholders in the Second Lien Collateral, as the case may be, or the amount, nature or extent of the First Lien Obligations or Second Lien Obligations or the provisions of this Agreement; provided, that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder to enforce this Agreement, including the provisions of this Agreement relating to the priority of the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations as provided in Sections 2.1 and 3.1. Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, neither the Second Lien Notes Agent nor any other Second Lien Claimholder will assert any marshaling, appraisal, valuation or other similar right that may otherwise be available to a junior secured creditor.
2.3 No New Liens. So long as the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has not occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against the Company or any other Grantor, the Company shall not, and shall not permit any other Grantor to:
(a) grant or permit any additional Liens on any asset or property to secure any Second Lien Obligation unless it has granted or concurrently grants a Lien on such asset or property to secure the First Lien Obligations, the parties hereto agreeing that any such Lien shall be subject to Section 2.1; and
(b) grant or permit any additional Liens on any asset or property to secure any First Lien Obligations unless it has granted or concurrently grants a Lien on such asset or property to secure the Second Lien Obligations.
If the Second Lien Notes Agent or any Second Lien Claimholder shall hold any Lien on any assets or property of any Grantor securing any Second Lien Obligations that are not also subject to the first-priority Liens securing all First Lien Obligations under the First Lien Collateral Documents, the Second Lien Notes Agent or Second Lien Claimholder shall notify the First Lien Collateral Agent promptly upon becoming aware thereof and, unless such Grantor shall promptly grant a similar Lien on such assets or property to the First Lien Collateral Agent as security for the First Lien Obligations, the Second Lien Notes Agent and Second Lien Claimholders shall be deemed to hold and have held such Lien for the benefit of the First Lien Collateral Agent and the other First Lien Claimholders, other than any First Lien Claimholders whose First Lien Loan Documents prohibit them from taking such Liens, as security for the First Lien Obligations. To the extent that the foregoing provisions are not complied with for any reason, without limiting any other rights and remedies available to any First Lien Collateral Agent and/or the First Lien Claimholders, the Second Lien Notes Agent, on behalf of each Second Lien Claimholder, agrees that any amounts received by or distributed to any of them pursuant to or as a result of Liens granted in contravention of this Section 2.3 shall be subject to Section 4.2.
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, prior to the Discharge of the First Lien Obligations, cash and cash equivalents may be pledged to secure First Lien Obligations consisting of reimbursement obligations in respect of letters of credit issued pursuant to the First Lien Loan Documents without granting a Lien thereon to secure any Second Lien Obligations.
2.4 Similar Liens and Agreements. The parties hereto agree that, subject to Sections 2.3 and 5.3(c), it is their intention that the First Lien Collateral and the Second Lien Collateral
13

be identical. In furtherance of the foregoing and of Section 8.10, the parties hereto agree, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement:
(a) upon request by the First Lien Collateral Agent or the Second Lien Notes Agent, to cooperate in good faith (and to direct their counsel to cooperate in good faith) from time to time in order to determine the specific items included in the First Lien Collateral and the Second Lien Collateral and the steps taken to perfect their respective Liens thereon and the identity of the respective parties obligated under the First Lien Loan Documents and the Second Lien Notes Documents; and
(b) that the documents and agreements creating or evidencing the First Lien Collateral and the Second Lien Collateral and guarantees for the First Lien Obligations and the Second Lien Obligations, subject to Sections 2.3 and 5.3(c), shall be in all material respects the same forms of documents other than with respect to the first lien and the second lien nature of the Obligations thereunder.
2.5 Perfection of Liens. Except for the arrangements contemplated by Section 5.5, (a) none of the First Lien Collateral Agent or the First Lien Claimholders shall be responsible for perfecting and maintaining the perfection of Liens with respect to the Collateral for the benefit of the Second Lien Notes Agent or the Second Lien Claimholders and (b) none of the Second Lien Notes Agent or the Second Lien Claimholders shall be responsible for perfecting and maintaining the perfection of Liens with respect to the Collateral for the benefit of the First Lien Collateral Agent or the First Lien Claimholders. The provisions of this Agreement are intended solely to govern the respective Lien priorities as between the First Lien Claimholders on the one hand and the Second Lien Claimholders on the other hand and such provisions shall not impose on the First Lien Collateral Agent, the First Lien Claimholders, the Second Lien Notes Agent, the Second Lien Claimholders or any agent or trustee therefor any obligations in respect of the disposition of proceeds of any Collateral which would conflict with prior-perfected claims therein in favor of any other Person or any order or decree of any court or Governmental Authority or any applicable law.
2.6 Nature of First Lien Obligations. Each Second Lien Notes Agent, on behalf of itself and each Second Lien Claimholder represented by it, acknowledges that a portion of the First Lien Obligations represents, or may in the future represent, debt that is revolving in nature and that the amount thereof that may be outstanding at any time or from time to time may be increased or reduced and subsequently re-borrowed, and that, the terms of the First Lien Loan Documents and the First Lien Obligations may be modified, extended or amended from time to time, and that the aggregate amount of the First Lien Obligations may be increased, replaced or refinanced, in each event, without notice to or consent by the Second Lien Notes Agents or the other Second Lien Claimholders and without affecting the provisions hereof. The lien priorities provided in Section 2.1 shall not be altered or otherwise affected by any such amendment, modification, supplement, extension, repayment, reborrowing, increase, replacement, renewal, restatement or refinancing of either the First Lien Obligations or the Second Lien Obligations, or any portion thereof.
SECTION 3. Enforcement.
3.1 Exercise of Remedies.
(a) Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against the
14

Company or any other Grantor, the Second Lien Notes Agent and the Second Lien Claimholders:
(1) will not commence or maintain, or seek to commence or maintain, any Enforcement Action or otherwise exercise any rights or remedies with respect to the Collateral; provided that the Second Lien Notes Agent may commence an Enforcement Action or otherwise exercise any or all such rights or remedies after the passage of a period of at least 180 days has elapsed since the later of: (i) the date on which the Second Lien Notes Agent declared the existence of any Event of Default (and as defined in) under any Second Lien Notes Document and demanded the repayment of all the principal amount of any Second Lien Obligations; and (ii) the date on which the First Lien Collateral Agent received notice from the Second Lien Notes Agent of such declarations of such Event of Default and demand for payment (the “Standstill Period”); provided, further, that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Second Lien Notes Agent or any Second Lien Claimholder take any Enforcement Action with respect to the Collateral (i) if, notwithstanding the expiration of the Standstill Period, the First Lien Collateral Agent or the First Lien Claimholders shall have commenced and be diligently pursuing an Enforcement Action or other exercise of their rights or remedies in each case with respect to all or any material portion of the Collateral (prompt notice of such exercise to be given to the Second Lien Notes Agent) or (ii) if the Company or any other Grantor shall be subject to any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding;
(2) will not contest, protest or object to any foreclosure proceeding or action brought by the First Lien Collateral Agent or any First Lien Claimholder or any other exercise by the First Lien Collateral Agent or any First Lien Claimholder of any rights and remedies relating to the Collateral under the First Lien Loan Documents or otherwise (including any Enforcement Action initiated by or supported by the First Lien Collateral Agent or any First Lien Claimholder); and
(3) subject to their rights under Section 3.1(a)(1), will not object to the forbearance by the First Lien Collateral Agent or any First Lien Claimholder from bringing or pursuing any foreclosure proceeding or action or any other exercise of any rights or remedies relating to the Collateral,
in each case so long as any proceeds received by the First Lien Collateral Agent in excess of those necessary to achieve a Discharge of First Lien Obligations are distributed in accordance with Section 4.1 and applicable law.
(b) Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against the Company or any other Grantor, subject to Section 3.1(a)(1), the First Lien Collateral Agent and the First Lien Claimholders shall have the exclusive right to commence and maintain an Enforcement Action or otherwise enforce rights, exercise remedies (including set‑off, recoupment and the right to credit bid their debt), and subject to Section 5.1, make determinations regarding the release, disposition, or restrictions with respect to the Collateral without any consultation with or the consent of the Second Lien Notes Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder; provided that any proceeds received by the First Lien Collateral
15

Agent in excess of those necessary to achieve a Discharge of First Lien Obligations are distributed in accordance with Section 4.1 and applicable law. In commencing or maintaining any Enforcement Action or otherwise exercising rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral, the First Lien Collateral Agent and the First Lien Claimholders may enforce the provisions of the First Lien Loan Documents and exercise remedies thereunder, all in such order and in such manner as they may determine in the exercise of their sole discretion in compliance with any applicable law and without consultation with the Second Lien Notes Agent or any Second Lien Claimholder and regardless of whether any such exercise is adverse to the interest of any Second Lien Claimholder. Such exercise and enforcement shall include the rights of an agent appointed by them to sell or otherwise dispose of Collateral upon foreclosure, to incur expenses in connection with such sale or disposition, and to exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured creditor under the UCC or any applicable law and of a secured creditor under Bankruptcy Laws of any applicable jurisdiction.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Second Lien Notes Agent and any other Second Lien Claimholder may:
(1) file a claim or statement of interest with respect to the Second Lien Obligations; provided that an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against the Company or any other Grantor;
(2) take any action not adverse to the priority status of the Liens on the Collateral securing the First Lien Obligations, or the rights of any First Lien Collateral Agent or the First Lien Claimholders to exercise remedies in respect thereof, in order to create, perfect, preserve or protect its Lien on the Collateral;
(3) file any necessary responsive or defensive pleadings in opposition to any motion, claim, adversary proceeding or other pleading made by any person objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of the claims of the Second Lien Claimholders, including any claims secured by the Collateral, if any, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Agreement;
(4) file any proof of claim, make other filings and make any arguments and motions that are, in each case, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, with respect to the Second Lien Obligations and the Collateral; provided that no filing of any claim or vote, or pleading related to such claim may be inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement; and
(5) exercise any of its rights or remedies with respect to the Collateral after the termination of the Standstill Period to the extent permitted by Section 3.1(a)(1).
(d) Subject to Sections 3.1(a), 3.1(c) and Section 6.3(b):
(1) the Second Lien Notes Agent, for itself and on behalf of each other Second Lien Claimholder, agrees that the Second Lien Notes Agent and the Second Lien Claimholders will not take any action that would hinder any exercise of remedies under the First Lien Loan Documents or is otherwise prohibited hereunder, including any sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of the Collateral, whether by foreclosure or otherwise;
16

(2) the Second Lien Notes Agent, for itself and on behalf of each other Second Lien Claimholder, hereby waives any and all rights it or the Second Lien Claimholders may have as a junior lien creditor or otherwise to object to the manner in which the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder seeks to enforce or collect the First Lien Obligations or the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations granted in any of the First Lien Collateral undertaken in accordance with this Agreement, regardless of whether any action or failure to act by or on behalf of the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder is adverse to the interest of any Second Lien Claimholder; and
(3) the Second Lien Notes Agent hereby acknowledges and agrees that no covenant, agreement or restriction contained in the Second Lien Collateral Documents or any other Second Lien Notes Document (other than this Agreement) shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights and remedies of the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder with respect to the Collateral as set forth in this Agreement and the First Lien Loan Documents.
(e) The Second Lien Notes Agent and the other Second Lien Claimholders may exercise rights and remedies as unsecured creditors against the Company or any other Grantor in accordance with the terms of the Second Lien Notes Documents and applicable law (other than initiating or joining in an involuntary case or proceeding under any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding with respect to any Grantor), in each case, in a manner that is not inconsistent with this Agreement; provided that in the event that any Second Lien Claimholder becomes a judgment Lien creditor in respect of Collateral as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor with respect to the Second Lien Obligations, such judgment Lien shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement for all purposes (including in relation to the First Lien Obligations) in the same manner as the other Liens securing the Second Lien Obligations are subject to this Agreement.
(f) Except as specifically set forth in Sections 3.1(a) and 3.1(d), nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by the Second Lien Notes Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder of the required payments of interest, principal and other amounts owed in respect of the Second Lien Obligations to the extent not prohibited by the First Lien Credit Agreement (as in effect on the date hereof) so long as such receipt is not the direct or indirect result of the exercise by the Second Lien Notes Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder of rights or remedies as a secured creditor (including set‑off and recoupment) or enforcement in contravention of this Agreement of any Lien held by any of them or as a result of any other violation by any Second Lien Claimholder of the express terms of this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement impairs or otherwise adversely affects any rights or remedies the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder may have with respect to the First Lien Collateral.
3.2 Actions Upon Breach; Specific Performance. If any Second Lien Claimholder, in contravention of the terms of this Agreement, in any way takes, attempts to or threatens to take any action with respect to the Collateral (including any attempt to realize upon or enforce any remedy with respect to this Agreement), or fails to take any action required by this Agreement, this Agreement shall create an irrebutable presumption and admission by such Second Lien Claimholder that relief against such Second Lien Claimholder by injunction, specific performance and/or other appropriate equitable relief is necessary to prevent irreparable harm to the
17

First Lien Claimholders, it being understood and agreed by the Second Lien Notes Agent on behalf of each Second Lien Claimholder that (i) the First Lien Claimholders’ damages from actions of any Second Lien Claimholder may at that time be difficult to ascertain and may be irreparable, and (ii) each Second Lien Claimholder waives any defense that the Grantors and/or the First Lien Claimholders cannot demonstrate damage and/or be made whole by the awarding of damages. Each of the First Lien Collateral Agent and the Second Lien Notes Agent may demand specific performance of this Agreement. The First Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and each other First Lien Claimholder under the First Lien Loan Documents, and the Second Lien Notes Agent, on behalf of itself and each other Second Lien Claimholder under the Second Lien Notes Documents, hereby irrevocably waive any defense based on the adequacy of a remedy at law and any other defense which might be asserted to bar the remedy of specific performance in any action which may be brought by the First Lien Collateral Agent or the First Lien Claimholders or the Second Lien Notes Agent or the Second Lien Claimholders, as the case may be. No provision of this Agreement shall constitute or be deemed to constitute a waiver by the First Lien Collateral Agent on behalf of itself and each other First Lien Claimholder or the Second Lien Notes Agent on behalf of itself and each other Second Lien Claimholder of any right to seek damages from any Person in connection with any breach or alleged breach of this Agreement.
SECTION 4. Payments.
4.1 Application of Proceeds. So long as the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has not occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against the Company or any other Grantor, any and all Collateral and proceeds thereof and any other amounts received pursuant to Section 4.2, regardless of how received or generated, shall be applied by the First Lien Collateral Agent to the First Lien Obligations in such order as specified in the relevant First Lien Loan Documents; provided, that any non-cash Collateral or non-cash proceeds may be held by the First Lien Collateral Agent as Collateral until liquidated by the First Lien Collateral Agent. Upon the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, the First Lien Collateral Agent shall, in the following order, (w) unless a Discharge of Second Lien Obligations has already occurred, deliver any remaining proceeds of Collateral held by it to the Second Lien Notes Agent to be applied by the Second Lien Notes Agent to the Second Lien Obligations in such order as specified in the Second Lien Notes Documents until a Discharge of Second Lien Obligations, (x) if a Discharge of Second Lien Obligations has already occurred, apply such proceeds of Collateral to the Excess First Lien Obligations in such order as specified in the First Lien Loan Documents until payment in full in cash of all such Excess First Lien Obligations, (y) if at such time there are no Excess First Lien Obligations, apply such proceeds of Collateral to any Excess Second Lien Obligations in such order as specified in the Second Lien Notes Documents and (z) if at such time there are no Excess Second Lien Obligations deliver such proceeds of Collateral to the Grantors, their successors or assigns from time to time, or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same. Without limiting the obligations of the Second Lien Claimholders under Section 4.2, after the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, upon the Discharge of Second Lien Obligations, the Second Lien Notes Agent shall, in the following order, (A) if there are any Excess First Lien Obligations, deliver any remaining proceeds of Collateral held by it to the First Lien Collateral Agent, for application by the First Lien Collateral Agent to the Excess First Lien Obligations in such order as specified in the First Lien Loan Documents until payment in full in cash of all Excess First Lien Obligations, and (B) if at such time there are no Excess First Lien Obligations but there are Excess Second Lien Obligations, apply such proceeds of Collateral to the Excess Second Lien Obligations in such order as specified in the Second Lien Notes Documents until such time there are no Excess Second Lien Obligations and (C) if at such time there are no Excess First Lien Obligations and no Excess Second
18

Lien Obligations, to the Grantors, their successors or assigns from time to time, or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same.
4.2 Payments Over. So long as the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has not occurred, (x) whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against the Company or any other Grantor, any Collateral or any proceeds thereof (including assets or proceeds subject to Liens referred to in the second to last paragraph of Section 2.3, any assets or proceeds subject to Liens that have been avoided or otherwise invalidated) received in contravention of this Agreement, (y) other than debt obligations of the reorganized debtor distributed as contemplated by Section 6.6, all distributions received by any Second Lien Claimholder with respect to its secured claims in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, in whatever form received, whether pursuant to a plan of reorganization or otherwise and/or (z) any amounts received in contravention of the First Lien Credit Agreement (as in effect on the date hereof), in each case, by the Second Lien Notes Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder shall be segregated and held in trust and forthwith paid over to the First Lien Collateral Agent for the benefit of the First Lien Claimholders in the same form as received, with any necessary endorsements (which endorsements shall be without recourse and without any representations or warranties) or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. The First Lien Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to make any such endorsements as agent for the Second Lien Notes Agent or any such other Second Lien Claimholder. This authorization is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations. Any Lien received by the Second Lien Notes Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder in respect of any of the Second Lien Obligations in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement.
SECTION 5. Other Agreements.
5.1 Releases.
(a) If in connection with any Enforcement Action by the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other exercise of the First Lien Collateral Agent’s remedies in respect of the Collateral, in each case prior to the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, the First Lien Collateral Agent, for itself or on behalf of any other First Lien Claimholder, releases any of its Liens on any part of the Collateral or releases any Grantor from its obligations under its guaranty of the First Lien Obligations, then the Liens, if any, of the Second Lien Notes Agent, for itself or for the benefit of the Second Lien Claimholders, on such Collateral, and the obligations of such Grantor under its guaranty of the Second Lien Obligations, shall be automatically, unconditionally and simultaneously released. If in connection with any Enforcement Action or other exercise of rights and remedies by the First Lien Collateral Agent, in each case prior to the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, the equity interests of any Person are foreclosed upon or otherwise disposed of and the First Lien Collateral Agent releases its Lien on the property or assets of such Person then the Liens of Second Lien Notes Agent with respect to the property or assets of such Person will be automatically released to the same extent as the Liens of the First Lien Collateral Agent. The Second Lien Notes Agent, for itself or on behalf of any such Second Lien Claimholders, promptly shall execute and deliver to the First Lien Collateral Agent or such Grantor such termination statements, releases and other documents as the First Lien Collateral Agent or such Grantor may request and prepare to effectively confirm the foregoing releases.
19

(b) If in connection with any sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of any Collateral by any Grantor (collectively, a “Disposition”) permitted under the terms of the First Lien Loan Documents and the terms of the Second Lien Notes Documents (other than in connection with an Enforcement Action or other exercise of the First Lien Collateral Agent’s remedies in respect of the Collateral which shall be governed by Section 5.1(a)), the First Lien Collateral Agent, for itself or on behalf of any other First Lien Claimholder, releases any of its Liens on any part of the Collateral, or releases any Grantor from its obligations under its guaranty of the First Lien Obligations, in each case other than in connection with, or following, the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, then the Liens, if any, of the Second Lien Notes Agent, for itself and for the benefit of the other Second Lien Claimholders, on such Collateral, and the obligations of such Grantor under its guaranty of the Second Lien Obligations, shall be automatically, unconditionally and simultaneously released. The Second Lien Notes Agent, for itself or on behalf of each other Second Lien Claimholder, shall promptly execute and deliver to the First Lien Collateral Agent or such Grantor such termination statements, releases and other documents as the First Lien Collateral Agent or such Grantor may request and prepare to effectively confirm such release.
(c) Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations occurs, the Second Lien Notes Agent, on behalf of itself and each other Second Lien Claimholder, hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the First Lien Collateral Agent and any officer or agent of the First Lien Collateral Agent, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney‑in‑fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of the Second Lien Notes Agent and such Second Lien Claimholder or in the First Lien Collateral Agent’s own name, from time to time in the First Lien Collateral Agent’s discretion, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Section 5.1, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary to accomplish the purposes of this Section 5.1, including any endorsements or other instruments of transfer or release. This power is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations.
(d) Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations occurs, to the extent that the First Lien Collateral Agent or any First Lien Claimholder (i) has released any Lien on Collateral or any Grantor from its obligation under its guarantee and any such Liens or guarantee are later reinstated or (ii) obtains any new Liens or additional guarantees from any Grantor, then the Second Lien Notes Agent, for itself and for the other Second Lien Claimholders, shall be granted a Lien on any such Collateral, subject to the lien subordination provisions of this Agreement, and the Second Lien Notes Agent shall be granted an additional guarantee, as the case may be.
5.2 Insurance. Unless and until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, the First Lien Collateral Agent and the other First Lien Claimholders shall have the sole and exclusive right, subject to the rights of the Grantors under the First Lien Loan Documents, to adjust settlement for any insurance policy covering the Collateral in the event of any loss thereunder and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding (or any deed in lieu of condemnation) affecting the Collateral. Unless and until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, and subject to the rights of the Grantors under the First Lien Loan Documents, all proceeds of any such policy and any such award (or any payments with respect to a deed in lieu of condemnation) if in respect of the Collateral shall be paid to the First Lien Collateral Agent for the
20

benefit of the First Lien Claimholders pursuant to the terms of the First Lien Loan Documents (including for purposes of cash collateralization of letters of credit) and thereafter, if a Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, and subject to the rights of the Grantors under the Second Lien Notes Documents, the balance of such proceeds shall be paid to the Second Lien Notes Agent for the benefit of the Second Lien Claimholders to the extent required under the Second Lien Notes Documents and then, if a Discharge of Second Lien Obligations has occurred, any remaining balance shall be paid to the First Lien Collateral Agent for application to the prepayment of any Excess First Lien Obligations and, then, after the payment in full in cash of all Excess First Lien Obligations, any remaining balance shall be paid to the Second Lien Notes Agent for application to the prepayment of any Excess Second Lien Obligations, and thereafter, any remaining balance shall be paid to the Grantors, their successors or assigns from time to time, or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same. Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, if the Second Lien Notes Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder shall, at any time, receive any proceeds of any such insurance policy or any such award or payment in contravention of this Agreement, then it shall segregate and hold in trust and forthwith pay such proceeds over to the First Lien Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms of Section 4.2.
5.3 Amendments to First Lien Loan Documents and Second Lien Notes Documents.
(a) The First Lien Loan Documents may be amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with their terms and the First Lien Debt may be Refinanced, in each case, without notice to, or the consent of the Second Lien Notes Agent or the other Second Lien Claimholders, all without affecting the lien subordination or other provisions of this Agreement; provided that any such amendment, restatement, supplement, modification or Refinancing is not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement and, in the case of a Refinancing, the holders of such Refinancing debt (directly or through their agent) bind themselves in a writing addressed to the Second Lien Notes Agent to the terms of this Agreement.
(b) The Second Lien Notes Documents may be amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with their terms and the Second Lien Debt may be Refinanced, in each case, without notice to, or the consent of the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder, all without affecting the lien subordination or other provisions of this Agreement, to the extent the terms and conditions of such amendment, restatement, supplement, modification or Refinancing meet any applicable requirements set forth in the First Lien Loan Documents; provided that any such amendment, restatement, supplement, modification or Refinancing is not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement and, in the case of any Refinancing, the holders of such Refinancing debt (directly or through their agent) bind themselves in a writing addressed to the Second Lien Notes Agent to the terms of this Agreement.
(c) In the event any First Lien Collateral Agent or the First Lien Claimholders and the relevant Grantor enter into any amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the First Lien Collateral Documents for the purpose of adding to, or deleting from, or waiving or consenting to any departures from any provisions of, any First Lien Collateral Document or changing in any manner the rights of the First Lien Collateral Agent, such First Lien Claimholders, the Company or any other Grantor thereunder, then such amendment, waiver or consent shall apply automatically to any comparable provision of a
21

Second Lien Collateral Document without the consent of the Second Lien Notes Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder and without any action by the Second Lien Notes Agent, the Company or any other Grantor, provided that:
(1) no such amendment, waiver or consent shall have the effect of:
(A) removing assets subject to the Lien of the Second Lien Collateral Documents, except to the extent that a release of such Lien is permitted or required by Section 5.1 and provided that there is a corresponding release of the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations;
(B) imposing duties on the Second Lien Notes Agent or altering rights, privileges, protections, indemnities, immunities or obligations of the Second Lien Notes Agent without its consent;
(C) permitting other Liens on the Collateral not permitted under the terms of the Second Lien Notes Documents or Section 6; or
(D) being prejudicial to the interests of the Second Lien Claimholders to a greater extent than the First Lien Claimholders (other than by virtue of their relative priority and the rights and obligations hereunder); and
(2) notice of such amendment, waiver or consent shall have been given to the Second Lien Notes Agent within ten Business Days after the effective date of such amendment, waiver or consent.
5.4 Confirmation of Subordination in Second Lien Collateral Documents. The Company agrees that each Second Lien Collateral Document shall include the following language (or language to similar effect approved by the First Lien Collateral Agent):
“Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the lien and security interest granted to the Second Lien Notes Agent pursuant to this Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Second Lien Notes Agent hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of May 1, 2020 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Intercreditor Agreement”), among JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as First Lien Collateral Agent and U.S. Bank National Association, as Second Lien Notes Agent and certain other persons party or that may become party thereto from time to time. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control.”
In addition, the Company agrees that each Second Lien Mortgage, if any, covering any Collateral shall contain such other language as the First Lien Collateral Agent may reasonably request to reflect the subordination of such Second Lien Mortgage to the First Lien Collateral Documents covering such Collateral.

5.5 Gratuitous Bailee/Agent for Perfection.
(a) The First Lien Collateral Agent agrees to hold that part of the Collateral that is in its possession or control (or in the possession or control of its agents or bailees) to the extent that possession or control thereof is taken to perfect a Lien thereon under the UCC (such Collateral being the “Pledged Collateral”) as collateral agent for the First Lien Claimholders and as gratuitous bailee for the Second Lien Notes Agent (such bailment being intended, among other things, to satisfy the requirements of Sections 8-106(d)(3), 8-301(a)(2) and 9-313(c) of the UCC) and any assignee thereof solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted under the First Lien Loan Documents and the Second Lien Notes Documents, respectively, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.5. Solely with respect to any deposit accounts under the control (within the meaning of Section 9-104 of the UCC) of the First Lien Collateral Agent, the First Lien Collateral Agent agrees to also hold control over such deposit accounts as gratuitous agent for the Second Lien Notes Agent, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.5. Prior to a Discharge of First Lien Obligations, at the request of the First Lien Collateral Agent, the Second Lien Notes Agent shall turn over possession of any Pledged Collateral in possession of the Second Lien Notes Agent to the First Lien Collateral Agent.
(b) The First Lien Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to the other First Lien Claimholders, the Second Lien Notes Agent or any Second Lien Claimholder to ensure that the Pledged Collateral is genuine or owned by any of the Grantors, to perfect the security interest of the Second Lien Notes Agent or other Second Lien Claimholders or to preserve rights or benefits of any Person except as expressly set forth in this Section 5.5. The duties or responsibilities of the First Lien Collateral Agent under this Section 5.5 shall be limited solely to holding the Pledged Collateral as bailee (and with respect to deposit accounts, agent) in accordance with this Section 5.5 and delivering the Pledged Collateral upon a Discharge of First Lien Obligations as provided in Section 5.5(d).
(c) No First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder shall have by reason of the First Lien Collateral Documents, the Second Lien Collateral Documents, this Agreement or any other document a fiduciary relationship in respect of the Second Lien Notes Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder and the Second Lien Notes Agent and the Second Lien Claimholders hereby waive and release the First Lien Collateral Agent and the other First Lien Claimholders from all claims and liabilities arising pursuant to the First Lien Collateral Agent’s role under this Section 5.5 as gratuitous bailee and gratuitous agent with respect to the Pledged Collateral. It is understood and agreed that the interests of the First Lien Collateral Agent and the other First Lien Claimholders, on the one hand, and the Second Lien Notes Agent and the Second Lien Claimholders on the other hand, may differ and the First Lien Collateral Agent and the First Lien Claimholders shall be fully entitled to act in their own interest without taking into account the interests of the Second Lien Notes Agent or the Second Lien Claimholders. The Second Lien Notes Agent shall not have by reason of the First Lien Collateral Documents, the Second Lien Collateral Documents, this Agreement or any other document a fiduciary relationship in respect of the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder. It is understood and agreed that the interests of the Second Lien Notes Agent and the other Second Lien Claimholders, on the one hand, and the First Lien Collateral Agent and the First Lien Claimholders on the other hand, may differ and the Second Lien Notes Agent and the Second Lien Claimholders shall be fully entitled, subject to the other terms and provisions of this Agreement, to act in
23

their own interest without taking into account the interests of the First Lien Collateral Agent or the First Lien Claimholders.
(d) Upon the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, the First Lien Collateral Agent shall deliver the remaining Pledged Collateral in its possession (if any) together with any necessary endorsements (which endorsement shall be without recourse and without any representation or warranty), in the following order: (w) if a Discharge of Second Lien Obligations has not already occurred, to the Second Lien Notes Agent, (x) if a Discharge of Second Lien Obligations has already occurred, to the First Lien Collateral Agent to the extent Excess First Lien Obligations remain outstanding, (y) if there are no Excess First Lien Obligations and if a Discharge of Second Lien Obligations has already occurred, to the Second Lien Notes Agent to the extent Excess Second Lien Obligations remain outstanding and (z) if there are no Excess First Lien Obligations or Excess Second Lien Obligations and if a Discharge of Second Lien Obligations has already occurred, to the Company or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same. Following the Discharge of First Lien Obligations and notice thereof given by the Grantors to the Second Lien Notes Agent, the First Lien Collateral Agent further agrees to take all other action reasonably requested by the Second Lien Notes Agent at the expense of the Company in connection with the Second Lien Notes Agent obtaining a first‑priority security interest in the Collateral. Following the Discharge of First Lien Obligations and notice thereof given by the Grantors to the Second Lien Notes Agent and the Discharge of Second Lien Obligations, the Second Lien Notes Agent further agrees to take all other action reasonably requested by any First Lien Collateral Agent at the expense of the Company in connection with the First Lien Collateral Agents obtaining a first-priority security interest in the Collateral if any Excess First Lien Obligations remain outstanding. After the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred and notice thereof given by the Grantors to the Second Lien Notes Agent, upon the Discharge of Second Lien Obligations, the Second Lien Notes Agent shall deliver the remaining Pledged Collateral in its possession (if any) together with any necessary endorsements (which endorsement shall be without recourse and without any representation or warranty), (A) if there are then any Excess First Lien Obligations, to the First Lien Collateral Agent, and (B) if at such time there are no Excess First Lien Obligations but there are then any Excess Second Lien Obligations, to the Second Lien Notes Agent and (C) to the extent no Excess First Lien Obligations or Excess Second Lien Obligations remain outstanding to the Company or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same. After payment in full in cash of all Excess First Lien Obligations (including interest accruing thereon on or after the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, whether or not such interest would be allowed in such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding) and termination or expiration of all commitments, if any, to extend credit that would constitute Excess First Lien Obligations and termination or cash collateralization (in an amount and manner reasonably satisfactory to the applicable letter of credit issuer, but in no event in an amount greater than 105% of the aggregate undrawn face amount) or the making of other arrangements satisfactory to the applicable letter of credit issuer, of all letters of credit constituting Excess First Lien Obligations, if there are any Excess Second Lien Obligations, the First Lien Collateral Agent shall deliver the remaining Pledged Collateral in its possession (if any) together with any necessary endorsement (which endorsement shall be without recourse and without representation or warranty) to the Second Lien Notes Agent.
5.6 When Discharge of First Lien Obligations Deemed to Not Have Occurred. (a) If, at any time after the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred or contemporaneously
24

therewith, the Company enters into any Refinancing of any First Lien Loan Document evidencing a First Lien Obligation which Refinancing is permitted by the Second Lien Notes Documents, then such Discharge of First Lien Obligations shall automatically be deemed not to have occurred for all purposes of this Agreement (other than with respect to any actions taken as a result of the occurrence of such first Discharge of First Lien Obligations), and, from and after the date on which the New First Lien Debt Notice is delivered to the Second Lien Notes Agent in accordance with the next sentence, the obligations under such Refinancing of the First Lien Loan Document shall automatically be treated as First Lien Obligations for all purposes of this Agreement, including for purposes of the Lien priorities and rights in respect of Collateral set forth herein, and the First Lien Collateral Agent under such First Lien Loan Documents shall be the First Lien Collateral Agent for all purposes of this Agreement. 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 from such date of reinstatement. Upon receipt of a notice (the “New First Lien Debt Notice”) stating that the Company has entered into a new First Lien Loan Document (which notice shall include the identity of the new first lien collateral agent, such agent, the “New First Lien Agent”), the Second Lien Notes Agent shall promptly (a) enter into such documents and agreements (including amendments or supplements to this Agreement and including, to the extent required by applicable law in any jurisdiction, any release, coupled with a re-take, of Collateral) as the Company or such New First Lien Agent shall reasonably request and prepare in order to provide to the New First Lien Agent the rights contemplated hereby, in each case consistent in all material respects with the terms of this Agreement and (b) deliver to the New First Lien Agent any Pledged Collateral held by it together with any necessary endorsements (or otherwise allow the New First Lien Agent to obtain control of such Pledged Collateral). The New First Lien Agent shall agree in a writing addressed to the Second Lien Notes Agent and the Second Lien Claimholders to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. If the new First Lien Obligations under the new First Lien Loan Documents are secured by assets of the Grantors constituting Collateral that do not also secure the Second Lien Obligations, then the Second Lien Obligations shall be secured at such time by a second-priority Lien on such assets to the same extent provided in the Second Lien Collateral Documents and this Agreement. This Section 5.6(a) shall survive termination of this Agreement.
(b) If, at any time after the Discharge of Second Lien Obligations has occurred or contemporaneously therewith, the Company enters into any Refinancing of any Second Lien Notes Document evidencing a Second Lien Obligation which Refinancing is permitted by the First Lien Loan Documents, then such Discharge of Second Lien Obligations shall automatically be deemed not to have occurred for all purposes of this Agreement (other than with respect to any actions taken as a result of the occurrence of such first Discharge of Second Lien Obligations), and, from and after the date on which the New Second Lien Debt Notice is delivered to the First Lien Collateral Agent in accordance with the next sentence, the obligations under such Refinancing of the Second Lien Notes Document shall automatically be treated as Second Lien Obligations for all purposes of this Agreement, including for purposes of the Lien priorities and rights in respect of Collateral set forth herein, and the Second Lien Notes Agent under such Second Lien Notes Documents shall be the Second Lien Notes Agent for all purposes of this Agreement. 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 from such date of reinstatement. Upon receipt of a notice (the “New Second Lien Debt Notice”) stating that the Company has entered into a new Second Lien Notes Document (which notice shall include the identity of the new second lien collateral agent, such agent, the “New Second Lien Agent”), the First Lien Collateral Agent shall promptly (a) enter into such documents and agreements (including amendments or supplements to this Agreement) as the Company or such New Second Lien Agent shall reasonably request in order to
25

provide to the New Second Lien Agent the rights contemplated hereby, in each case consistent in all material respects with the terms of this Agreement. The New Second Lien Agent shall agree in a writing addressed to the First Lien Collateral Agent and the First Lien Claimholders to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. If the new Second Lien Obligations under the new Second Lien Notes Documents are secured by assets of the Grantors constituting Collateral that do not also secure the First Lien Obligations, then the First Lien Obligations shall be secured at such time by a first-priority Lien on such assets to the same extent provided in the First Lien Collateral Documents and this Agreement. This Section 5.6(b) shall survive termination of this Agreement.
Upon receipt of a designation from the Company in accordance with Section 5.6(b) of this Agreement, the First Lien Collateral Agent shall promptly enter into such documents and agreements (including amendments or supplements to this Agreement) as the Company and/or such New Second Lien Agent shall reasonably request in order to provide to such New Second Lien Agent the rights contemplated hereby, in each case consistent in all material respects with the terms of this Agreement. If the Second Lien Obligations under the Second Lien Notes Documents the subject of any New Second Lien Debt Notice in respect of such Refinancing are secured by assets of the Grantors constituting Collateral that do not also secure the First Lien Obligations, then the First Lien Obligations shall be secured at such time by a first-priority Lien on such assets to the same extent provided in the Second Lien Collateral Documents and this Agreement.
5.7 Discharge of First Lien Obligations. The Grantors shall promptly notify the Second Lien Notes Agent upon the Discharge of First Lien Obligations.
SECTION 6. Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings.
6.1 Finance and Sale Issues. Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, if the Company or any other Grantor shall be subject to any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and the First Lien Collateral Agent shall desire to permit the use of “Cash Collateral” (as such term is defined in Section 363(a) of the Bankruptcy Code) on which such First Lien Collateral Agent or any other creditor has a Lien, or to consent to (or not object to) the Company or any other Grantor obtaining financing, whether from the First Lien Claimholders or any other Person under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar Bankruptcy Law (“DIP Financing”), then the Second Lien Notes Agent, on behalf of itself and each other Second Lien Claimholder, will not object to such Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing (including any proposed orders for such Cash Collateral use and/or DIP Financing which are acceptable to the First Lien Collateral Agent) and to the extent the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations are subordinated to or pari passu with such DIP Financing, the Second Lien Notes Agent will subordinate its Liens in the Collateral to the Liens securing such DIP Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto) and any “carve out” consented to by the First Lien Collateral Agent, and further will not request adequate protection (it being understood and agreed that in the case of any jurisdiction outside the United States, if applicable, any reference to adequate protection in this Agreement shall also be deemed to refer to protective relief to address any material prejudice) or any other relief in connection therewith (except, as expressly agreed by the First Lien Collateral Agent or to the extent permitted by Section 6.3); provided that the aggregate principal amount of the DIP Financing plus the aggregate outstanding principal amount of First Lien Obligations plus the aggregate face amount of any letters of credit issued and outstanding under the First Lien Loan Documents does not exceed the First Lien Cap Amount. No Second Lien Claimholder may provide DIP Financing to the Company or any other Grantor; provided, that if no First Lien Claimholder offers to provide DIP Financing to the extent permitted under this Section 6.1, then a Second Lien Claimholder may seek to provide DIP Financing; provided,
26

further, that (x) such DIP Financing shall not be secured by Liens equal or senior in priority to the Liens securing any First Lien Obligations, (y) such DIP Financing shall not “roll-up” or otherwise include or refinance any pre-petition Second Lien Obligations without the prior written consent of the First Lien Collateral Agent (at the direction, or with the consent, of the requisite First Lien Claimholders under the First Lien Credit Agreement) and (y) nothing in this Section 6.1 shall constitute a waiver by any First Lien Claimholder of its right to object to the terms of any such DIP Financing offered by any Second Lien Claimholder. The Second Lien Notes Agent, on behalf of itself and each other Second Lien Claimholder, agrees that it will not seek consultation rights in connection with, and it will not object to or oppose, a motion to sell, liquidate or otherwise dispose of Collateral under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar Bankruptcy Law if the requisite First Lien Claimholders have consented to such sale, liquidation or other disposition. The Second Lien Notes Agent, on behalf of itself and each other Second Lien Claimholder, further agrees that it will not directly or indirectly oppose or impede entry of any order in connection with such sale, liquidation or other disposition, including orders to retain professionals or set bid procedures in connection with such sale, liquidation or disposition if the requisite First Lien Claimholders have consented to (i) such retention of professionals and bid procedures in connection with such sale, liquidation or disposition of such assets and (ii) the sale, liquidation or disposition of such assets, in which event the Second Lien Claimholders will be deemed to have consented to the sale or disposition of Collateral pursuant to Section 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar Bankruptcy Law.
6.2 Relief from the Automatic Stay. Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, the Second Lien Notes Agent, on behalf of itself and each other Second Lien Claimholder, agrees that none of them shall: (i) seek (or support any other Person seeking) relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Collateral, without the prior written consent of the First Lien Collateral Agent, unless a motion for adequate protection permitted under Section 6.3 has been denied by a bankruptcy court or (ii) oppose (or support any other Person in opposing) any request by the First Lien Collateral Agent for relief from such stay.
6.3 Adequate Protection.
(a) The Second Lien Notes Agent, on behalf of itself and each other Second Lien Claimholder, agrees that none of them shall contest (or support any other Person contesting):
(1) any request by the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder for adequate protection under any Bankruptcy Law or any adequate protection provided under any Bankruptcy Law to the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder;
(2) any objection by the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on the First Lien Collateral Agent or any First Lien Claimholder claiming a lack of adequate protection; or
(3) the payment of interest, fees, expenses or other amounts to the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder under Section
27

506(b) or 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar Bankruptcy Law or otherwise.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions in this Section 6.3, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, the Second Lien Notes Agent and Second Lien Claimholders shall only be permitted to seek and obtain adequate protection with respect to their rights in the Collateral in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in the form of (A) a Lien on additional collateral; provided that (i) as adequate protection for the First Lien Obligations, the First Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of the First Lien Claimholders, is also granted a Lien on such additional collateral, and (ii) such adequate protection Lien in favor of the Second Lien Notes Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder shall be subject and subordinate to each of the Liens securing any DIP Financing provided by the First Lien Claimholders (and all Obligations related thereto), the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations, all adequate protection Liens in favor of the First Lien Collateral Agent and any Liens securing any “carve-out” agreed to by the First Lien Collateral Agent (B) replacement Liens on the Collateral; provided that (i) as adequate protection for the First Lien Obligations, the First Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of the First Lien Claimholders, is also granted replacement Liens on the Collateral, and (ii) such adequate protection Lien in favor of the Second Lien Notes Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder shall be subject and subordinate to each of the Liens securing any DIP Financing provided by the First Lien Claimholders (and all Obligations related thereto), the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations, all adequate protection Liens in favor of the First Lien Collateral Agent and any Liens securing any “carve-out” agreed to by the First Lien Collateral Agent; and (C) an administrative expense claim (it being understood and agreed that in the case of any jurisdiction outside the United States, if applicable, any reference to an administrative expense claim in this Agreement shall also be deemed to refer to security for a post-Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding claim); provided that (i) as adequate protection for the First Lien Obligations, the First Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of the First Lien Claimholders, is also granted an administrative expense claim; (ii) such administrative expense claim in favor of the Second Lien Notes Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder shall be subject and subordinate to each of the administrative expenses claims granted to the providers of DIP Financing, the administrative expense claims granted to the First Lien Claimholders and any “carve out” agreed to by the First Lien Collateral Agent; and (iii) Second Lien Notes Agent, on behalf of all Second Lien Claimholders, hereby irrevocably agrees and consents (and shall be deemed to have irrevocably agreed and consented by the Bankruptcy Court), pursuant to Section 1129(a)(9) of the Bankruptcy Code or similar provision under other applicable Bankruptcy Laws, in any stipulation and/or order granting such adequate protection, that such junior superpriority claims may be paid under any plan of reorganization in any combination of cash, debt, equity or other property having a value on the effective date of such plan equal to the allowed amount of such claims.
(c) The Second Lien Notes Agent, on behalf of itself and each other Second Lien Claimholder, agrees that notice of a hearing to approve DIP Financing or use of Cash Collateral on an interim basis shall be adequate if delivered to the Second Lien Notes Agent at least two (2) Business Days in advance of such hearing and that notice of a hearing to approve DIP Financing or use of Cash Collateral on a final basis shall be adequate if delivered to the Second Lien Notes Agent at least fifteen (15) days in advance of such hearing.
28

6.4 No Waiver. Subject to Section 6.7(b), nothing contained herein shall prohibit or in any way limit the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder from objecting in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise to any action taken by the Second Lien Notes Agent or any of the other Second Lien Claimholders, including the seeking by the Second Lien Notes Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder of adequate protection or the asserting by the Second Lien Notes Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder of any of its rights and remedies under the Second Lien Notes Documents or otherwise.
6.5 Avoidance Issues. If any First Lien Claimholder is required in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise to turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of the Company or any other Grantor any amount paid in respect of First Lien Obligations (a “Recovery”), then such First Lien Claimholder shall be entitled to a reinstatement of its First Lien Obligations with respect to all such recovered amounts on the date of such Recovery, and from and after the date of such reinstatement the Discharge of First Lien Obligations (or, as applicable, payment in full in cash of all Excess First Lien Obligations (including interest accruing thereon on or after the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, whether or not such interest would be allowed in such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding) and termination or cash collateralization (in an amount and manner reasonably satisfactory to the applicable letter of credit issuer, but in no event in an amount greater than 105% of the aggregate undrawn face amount), or the making of other arrangements satisfactory to the applicable letter of credit issuer, of all letters of credit constituting Excess First Lien Obligations) shall be deemed not to have occurred for all purposes hereunder. 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 from such date of reinstatement. This Section 6.5 shall survive termination of this Agreement.
6.6 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, arrangement, examinership, administration, compromise or liquidation or similar dispositive restructuring plan, both on account of First Lien Obligations and on account of Second Lien Obligations, then, to the extent the debt obligations distributed on account of the First Lien Obligations and on account of the Second Lien Obligations are secured by Liens upon the same 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.
6.7 Post-Petition Interest.
(a) None of the Second Lien Notes Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of First Lien Obligations consisting of Post-Petition Interest to the extent of the value of any First Lien Claimholder’s Lien on the Collateral, without regard to the existence of the Liens of the Second Lien Notes Agent or the other Second Lien Claimholders on the Collateral.
(b) None of the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the Second Lien Notes Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation
29

Proceeding of Second Lien Obligations consisting of Post-Petition Interest to the extent of the value of the Lien of the Second Lien Notes Agent, on behalf of the Second Lien Claimholders, on the Collateral (after taking into account the amount of the First Lien Obligations).
6.8 Waiver. The Second Lien Notes Agent, on behalf of itself and each other Second Lien Claimholder, waives any claim it may hereafter have against any First Lien Claimholder arising out of the election of any First Lien Claimholder of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable Bankruptcy Laws, and/or out of any cash collateral or financing arrangement or out of any grant of a security interest in connection with the Collateral in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding so long as such actions are not in express contravention of the terms of this Agreement.
6.9 Separate Grants of Security and Separate Classification. The Second Lien Notes Agent, on behalf of itself and each other Second Lien Claimholder, and the First Lien Collateral Agent on behalf of itself and each other First Lien Claimholder, acknowledges and agrees that:
(a) the grants of Liens pursuant to the First Lien Collateral Documents and the Second Lien Collateral Documents constitute two separate and distinct grants of Liens; and
(b) because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Collateral, the Second Lien Obligations are fundamentally different from the First Lien Obligations and must be separately classified in any plan of reorganization or scheme of arrangement (including in any examinership) proposed 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 First Lien Claimholders and the Second Lien Claimholders in respect of the Collateral constitute only one secured claim (rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims), then each of the parties hereto hereby acknowledges and agrees that all distributions shall be made as if there were separate classes of senior and junior secured claims against the Grantors in respect of the Collateral (with the effect being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the Second Lien Claimholders), the First Lien Claimholders 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 (or that would be owing if there were such separate classes of senior and junior secured claims) in respect of Post-Petition Interest (including any additional interest payable pursuant to the First Lien Loan Documents arising from or related to a default, which is disallowed as a claim in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding) before any distribution is made in respect of the claims held by the Second Lien Claimholders with respect to the Collateral, with the Second Lien Notes Agent, on behalf of itself and each other Second Lien Claimholder, hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the First Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and each other First Lien Claimholder, Collateral or proceeds of Collateral 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 claim or recovery of the Second Lien Claimholders).
6.10 Effectiveness in Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings. The Parties acknowledge that this Agreement is a “subordination agreement” under Section 510(a) of the
30

Bankruptcy Code and other applicable Bankruptcy Laws, which will be effective before, during and after the commencement of an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. All references in this Agreement to any Grantor will include such Person as a debtor-in-possession and any receiver or trustee for such Person in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.
6.11 Plan Approval. No Second Lien Claimholders may support or vote in favor of any plan of reorganization (and each shall be deemed to have voted to reject any plan of reorganization) that is inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Second Lien Claimholder may support or vote in favor of any plan of reorganization unless such plan (a) provides for the Discharge of First Lien Obligations by no later than the effective date of such plan of reorganizaiton or (b) is accepted by the class of holders of First Lien Obligations voting thereon in accordance with Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or in accordance with applicable Bankruptcy Law.
SECTION 7. Reliance; Waivers; Etc.
7.1 Reliance. Other than any reliance on the terms of this Agreement, the First Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and each other First Lien Claimholder, acknowledges that it and such other First Lien Claimholders have, independently and without reliance on the Second Lien Notes Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder, and based on documents and information deemed by them appropriate, made their own credit analysis and decision to enter into each of the First Lien Loan Documents and be bound by the terms of this Agreement and they will continue to make their own credit decision in taking or not taking any action under the First Lien Loan Documents or this Agreement. The Second Lien Notes Agent, on behalf of itself and each other Second Lien Claimholder, acknowledges that it and such other Second Lien Claimholders have, independently and without reliance on the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder, and based on documents and information deemed by them appropriate, made their own credit analysis and decision to enter into each of the Second Lien Notes Documents and be bound by the terms of this Agreement and they will continue to make their own credit decision in taking or not taking any action under the Second Lien Notes Documents or this Agreement.
7.2 No Warranties or Liability. The First Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and each other First Lien Claimholder, acknowledges and agrees that none of the Second Lien Notes Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder has made any express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the execution, validity, legality, completeness, collectability or enforceability of any of the Second Lien Notes Documents, the ownership of any Collateral or the perfection or priority of any Liens thereon. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Second Lien Claimholders will be entitled to manage and supervise their respective loans and extensions of credit under the Second Lien Notes Documents in accordance with law and as they may otherwise, in their sole discretion, deem appropriate. The Second Lien Notes Agent, on behalf of itself and each other Second Lien Claimholder, acknowledges and agrees that none of the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder has made any express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the execution, validity, legality, completeness, collectability or enforceability of any of the First Lien Loan Documents, the ownership of any Collateral or the perfection or priority of any Liens thereon. Except as otherwise provided herein, the First Lien Claimholders will be entitled to manage and supervise their respective loans and extensions of credit under the First Lien Loan Documents in accordance with law and as they may otherwise, in their sole discretion, deem appropriate. The Second Lien Notes Agent and the other Second Lien Claimholders shall have no duty to the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien
31

Claimholder, and the First Lien Collateral Agent and the other First Lien Claimholders shall have no duty to the Second Lien Notes Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder, to act or refrain from acting in a manner which allows, or results in, the occurrence or continuance of an event of default or default under any agreements with the Company or any other Grantor (including the First Lien Loan Documents and the Second Lien Notes Documents), regardless of any knowledge thereof which they may have or be charged with.
7.3 No Waiver of Lien Priorities.
(a) No right of the First Lien Claimholders, the First Lien Collateral Agent or any of them to enforce any provision of this Agreement or any First Lien Loan Document shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company or any other Grantor or by any act or failure to act by any First Lien Claimholder or the First Lien Collateral Agent, or by any noncompliance by any Person with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Agreement, any of the First Lien Loan Documents or any of the Second Lien Notes Documents, regardless of any knowledge thereof which the First Lien Collateral Agent or any First Lien Claimholder, or any of them, may have or be otherwise charged with.

SECTION 8. Miscellaneous.
8.1 Integration/Conflicts. This Agreement, the First Lien Loan Documents and the Second Lien Notes Documents represent the entire agreement of the Grantors, the First Lien Claimholders and the Second Lien Claimholders with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof. There are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the First Lien Claimholders or the Second Lien Claimholders relative to the subject matter hereof and thereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or therein. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of the First Lien Loan Documents or the Second Lien Notes Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern and control.
8.2 Effectiveness; Continuing Nature of this Agreement; Severability. This Agreement shall become effective when executed and delivered by the parties hereto. This is a continuing agreement of lien subordination and the First Lien Claimholders may continue, at any time and without notice to the Second Lien Notes Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder subject to the Second Lien Notes Documents, to extend credit and other financial accommodations and lend monies to or for the benefit of the Company or any Grantor constituting First Lien Obligations in reliance hereof. The Second Lien Notes Agent, on behalf of itself and each other Second Lien Claimholder, hereby waives any right it may have under applicable law to revoke this Agreement or any of the provisions of this Agreement. The terms of this Agreement shall survive, and shall continue in full force and effect, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. The parties
34

hereto shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace any invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to those of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. All references to the Company or any other Grantor shall include the Company or such Grantor as debtor and debtor‑in‑possession and any receiver, trustee or similar person for the Company or any other Grantor (as the case may be) in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. This Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect on the earlier to occur of (x) the date on which there has been a Discharge of First Lien Obligations and no Excess First Lien Obligations remain outstanding and (y) the date on which there has been a Discharge of Second Lien Obligations and no Excess Second Lien Obligations remain outstanding, in each case, subject to Sections 5.6 and 6.5; provided, however, that no termination shall relieve any party of its obligations incurred hereunder prior to the date of termination.
8.3 Amendments; Waivers. No amendment, modification or waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement by the Second Lien Notes Agent or the First Lien Collateral Agent shall be deemed to be made unless the same shall be in writing signed on behalf of each party hereto or its authorized agent and each waiver, if any, shall be a waiver only with respect to the specific instance involved and shall in no way impair the rights of the parties making such waiver or the obligations of the other parties to such party in any other respect or at any other time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) without the consent of any Claimholder, the Company, the Second Lien Notes Agent and the First Lien Collateral Agent may effect amendments and modifications to this Agreement to the extent necessary to reflect any incurrence of additional Second Lien Obligations expressly permitted to be incurred (i) as second lien obligations under the First Lien Loan Documents and (ii) under the Second Lien Notes Documents then extant and (y) the Company and the other Grantors shall not otherwise have any right to consent to or approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, except with respect to Section 8.17 or this Section 8.3 (including, in each case, each defined term referred to therein to the extent used therein) to the extent such amendment, modification or waiver directly and adversely affects the rights of the Company or the other Grantors.
8.4 Information Concerning Financial Condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

The First Lien Collateral Agent and the other First Lien Claimholders shall have no duty to advise the Second Lien Notes Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder of information known to it or them regarding such condition or any such circumstances or otherwise. The Second Lien Notes Agent and the other Second Lien Claimholders shall have no duty to advise the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder of information known to it or them regarding such condition or any such circumstances or otherwise. In the event any of the Claimholders, in its or their sole discretion, undertakes at any time or from time to time to provide any such information to any other Claimholder, it or they shall be under no obligation:
(a) to make, and such Claimholders shall not make, any express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the accuracy, completeness, truthfulness or validity of any such information so provided;
35

(b) to provide any additional information or to provide any such information on any subsequent occasion;
(c) to undertake any investigation; or
(d) to disclose any information, which pursuant to accepted or reasonable commercial finance practices, such party wishes to maintain confidential or is otherwise required to maintain confidential.
8.5 Subrogation. With respect to the value of any payments or distributions in cash, property or other assets that any of the Second Lien Claimholders or the Second Lien Notes Agent pays over to the First Lien Collateral Agent or the First Lien Claimholders under the terms of this Agreement, the Second Lien Claimholders and the Second Lien Notes Agent shall be subrogated to the rights of the First Lien Collateral Agent and the First Lien Claimholders; provided that the Second Lien Notes Agent, on behalf of itself and each other Second Lien Claimholder, hereby agrees not to assert or enforce any such rights of subrogation it may acquire as a result of any payment hereunder until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred.
