Nothing in the preceding sentence shall be construed to impose any duty on the First Priority Representative (or any third party acting on its behalf) with respect to such Common Collateral or provide the Second Priority Representative or any other Second Priority Secured Party with any rights with respect to such Common Collateral beyond those specified in this Agreement and the Second Priority Security Documents, provided that as soon as practicable after the occurrence of the events described in clauses (a), (b) and (c) of the definition of the First Priority Obligations Payment Date, the First Priority Representative shall (i) deliver, at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense, the Common Collateral in its possession or control together with any necessary endorsements (x) first, to the Second Priority Representative to the extent any Second Priority Obligations remain outstanding and (y) second, to the Borrower to the extent no First Priority Obligations or Second Priority Obligations remain outstanding, or (ii) direct and deliver such Common Collateral as a court of competent jurisdiction otherwise directs, and provided, further, that the provisions of this Agreement are intended solely to govern the respective Lien priorities as between the First Priority Secured Parties and the Second Priority Secured Parties and shall not impose on the First Priority Secured Parties any obligations in respect of the disposition of any Common Collateral (or any proceeds thereof) that would conflict with prior perfected Liens or any claims thereon in favor of any other Person that is not a Secured Party.

Nothing in the preceding sentence shall be construed to impose any duty on the First Priority Representative (or any third party acting on its behalf) with respect to such Common Collateral or provide the Second Priority Representative or any other Second Priority Secured Party with any rights with respect to such Common Collateral beyond those specified in this Agreement and the Second Priority Security Documents. Unless the Second Priority Liens on such First Priority Collateral shall have been or concurrently are released, after the First Priority Obligations Payment Date, the First Priority Representative shall cooperate with the Loan Parties and the Second Priority Representative (at the expense of the Loan Parties) in permitting control of any deposit accounts and securities accounts to be transferred to the Second Priority Representative (or for other arrangements with respect to each such deposit account and securities account reasonably satisfactory to the Second Priority Representative and in accordance with the Second Priority Documents to be made).

| (2) | 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 Priority Secured Parties, including any claims secured by the Common Collateral, if any, in each case in a manner that is not inconsistent with, or in contravention of, the express terms of this Agreement;

| (3) | file any pleadings, objections, motions or agreements or take any positions that assert rights or interests available to unsecured creditors of the Loan Parties arising under either any Insolvency Proceeding or applicable non-bankruptcy law, in each case in a manner that is not inconsistent with, or in contravention of, the express terms of this Agreement;

| (4) | vote on any plan of reorganization, file any proof of claim or statement of interest, make other filings and make any arguments and motions that are, in each case, in a manner that is not inconsistent with, or in contravention of, the express terms of this Agreement, with respect to the Second Priority Obligations and the Common Collateral;

| (5) | exercise any of its rights or remedies with respect to the Common Collateral after the termination of the Standstill Period to the extent permitted by this Section 3.2;

| (6) | present a cash or credit bid (in the case of any such credit bid, so long as such bid provides for payment in full of the First Priority Obligations and the occurrence of the events described in clauses (a), (b) and (c) of the definition of the First Priority Obligations Payment Date) at any section 363 hearing or with respect to any other Common Collateral disposition; and

| (7) | bid for or purchase Common Collateral at any private or judicial foreclosure upon such Common Collateral initiated by the First Priority Representative or any of the First Priority Secured Parties.

3.3 Judgment Creditors. In the event that any Second Priority Secured Party becomes a judgment lien creditor as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor, such judgment lien shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement for all purposes (including in relation to the First Priority Liens and the First Priority Obligations) to the same extent as all other Liens securing the Second Priority Obligations are subject to the terms of this Agreement.

3.4 No Additional Rights For the Loan Parties Hereunder. Except as provided in Section 3.5, if any First Priority Secured Party or Second Priority Secured Party shall enforce its rights or remedies in violation of the terms of this Agreement, no Loan Party shall be entitled to use such violation as a defense to any action by any First Priority Secured Party or Second Priority Secured Party, nor to assert such violation as a counterclaim or basis for set off or recoupment against any First Priority Secured Party or Second Priority Secured Party.

13

3.5 Actions Upon Breach. (a) If any Second Priority Secured Party, contrary to this Agreement, commences or participates in any action or proceeding against any Loan Party or the Common Collateral, such Loan Party, with the prior written consent of the First Priority Representative, may interpose as a defense or dilatory plea the making of this Agreement, and any First Priority Secured Party may intervene and interpose such defense or plea in its or their name or in the name of such Loan Party.

(b) Should any Second Priority Secured Party, contrary to this Agreement, in any way take, attempt to or threaten to take any action with respect to the Common Collateral (including, without limitation, any attempt to realize upon or enforce any remedy with respect to this Agreement), or fail to take any action required by this Agreement, any First Priority Secured Party (in its own name or in the name of the relevant Loan Party) or the relevant Loan Party may obtain relief against such Second Priority Secured Party by injunction, specific performance and/or other appropriate equitable relief, it being understood and agreed by the Second Priority Representative on behalf of each Second Priority Secured Party that (i) the First Priority Secured Parties’ damages from its actions may at that time be difficult to ascertain and may be irreparable, and (ii) each Second Priority Secured Party waives any defense that the Loan Parties and/or the First Priority Secured Parties cannot demonstrate damage and/or be made whole by the awarding of damages.

3.6 Option to Purchase. (a) The First Priority Representative agrees that it will give the Second Priority Representative written notice (the “Enforcement Notice”) within five business days after commencing any Enforcement Action with respect to Common Collateral or the institution of any Insolvency Proceeding (which notice shall be effective for all Enforcement Actions taken after the date of such notice so long as the First Priority Representative is diligently pursuing in good faith the exercise of its default or enforcement rights or remedies against, or diligently attempting in good faith to vacate any stay of enforcement rights of its senior Liens on a material portion of the Common Collateral, including, without limitation, all Enforcement Actions identified in such notice). Following the commencement of an Enforcement Action or the institution of any Insolvency Proceeding by the First Priority Representative or any other First Priority Secured Party, any Second Priority Secured Party shall have the option, by irrevocable written notice (the “Purchase Notice”) delivered by the Second Priority Representative to the First Priority Representative no later than five business days after receipt by the Second Priority Representative of the Enforcement Notice, to purchase all of the First Priority Obligations from the First Priority Secured Parties. If the Second Priority Representative so delivers the Purchase Notice, the First Priority Representative shall terminate any existing Enforcement Actions, and shall not take any further Enforcement Actions, provided, that the Purchase (as defined below) shall have been consummated on the date specified in the Purchase Notice in accordance with this Section 3.6.

(b) On the date specified by the Second Priority Representative in the Purchase Notice (which shall be a business day not less than five business days, nor more than ten business days, after receipt by the First Priority Representative of the Purchase Notice), the First Priority Secured Parties shall, subject to any required approval of any court or other governmental authority then in effect, sell to the Second Priority Secured Parties electing to purchase pursuant to Section 3.6(a) (the “Purchasing Parties”), and the Purchasing Parties shall purchase (the “Purchase”) from the First Priority Secured Parties, the First Priority Obligations; provided, that the First Priority Obligations purchased shall not include any rights of First Priority Secured Parties with respect to indemnification and other obligations of the Loan Parties under the First Priority Documents that are expressly stated to survive the termination of the First Priority Documents (the “Surviving Obligations”).

14

(c) Without limiting the obligations of the Loan Parties under the First Priority Documents to the First Priority Secured Parties with respect to the Surviving Obligations (which shall not be transferred in connection with the Purchase), on the date of the Purchase, the Purchasing Parties shall (i) pay to the First Priority Secured Parties as the purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) therefor the full amount of all First Priority Obligations then outstanding and unpaid (including principal, interest (including, to the extent applicable, interest at the default rate), Post-Petition Interest, fees, breakage costs, attorneys’ fees and expenses, and, in the case of any Hedging Obligations, the amount that would be payable by the relevant Loan Party thereunder if it were to terminate such Hedging Obligations on the date of the Purchase or, if not terminated, an amount determined by the relevant First Priority Secured Party to be necessary to collateralize its credit risk arising out of such Hedging Obligations), (ii) furnish cash collateral (the “Cash Collateral”) to the First Priority Secured Parties in such amounts as the relevant First Priority Secured Parties determine is reasonably necessary to secure such First Priority Secured Parties in connection with any outstanding letters of credit (not to exceed 105% of the aggregate undrawn face amount of such letters of credit), (iii) agree to reimburse the First Priority Secured Parties for any loss, cost, damage or expense (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection with any fees, costs or expenses related to any checks or other payments provisionally credited to the First Priority Obligations and/or as to which the First Priority Secured Parties have not yet received final payment and (iv) agree, after written request from the First Priority Representative, to reimburse the First Priority Secured Parties in respect of indemnification obligations of the Loan Parties under the First Priority Documents as to matters or circumstances known to the Purchasing Parties at the time of the Purchase which could reasonably be expected to result in any loss, cost, damage or expense to any of the First Priority Secured Parties, provided that, in no event shall any Purchasing Party have any liability for such amounts in excess of proceeds of Common Collateral received by the Purchasing Parties.

(d) The Purchase Price and Cash Collateral shall be remitted by wire transfer in immediately available funds to such account of the First Priority Representative as it shall designate to the Purchasing Parties. The First Priority Representative shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, distribute the amounts received by it in respect of the Purchase Price to the First Priority Secured Parties in accordance with the First Priority Agreement. Interest shall be calculated to but excluding the day on which the Purchase occurs if the amounts so paid by the Purchasing Parties to the account designated by the First Priority Representative are received in such account prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, and interest shall be calculated to and including such day if the amounts so paid by the Purchasing Parties to the account designated by the First Priority Representative are received in such account later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time.

(e) The Purchase shall be made without representation or warranty of any kind by the First Priority Secured Parties as to the First Priority Obligations, the Common Collateral or otherwise and without recourse to the First Priority Secured Parties, except that the First Priority Secured Parties shall represent and warrant: (i) the amount of the First Priority Obligations being purchased, (ii) that the First Priority Secured Parties own the First Priority Obligations free and clear of any liens or encumbrances and (iii) that the First Priority Secured Parties have the right to assign the First Priority Obligations and the assignment is duly authorized.

3.7 Rights as Unsecured Creditors. The Second Priority Representative and the Second Priority Secured Parties may exercise rights and remedies available to unsecured creditors against the Loan Parties that have granted Liens to secure the Second Priority Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Second Priority Documents and applicable law to the extent that such exercise is not inconsistent with, or in contravention of, the express terms of this Agreement; provided that in the event that any Second Priority Secured Party becomes an attachment or a judgment Lien creditor in respect of

15

the Common Collateral as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor with respect to the Second Priority Obligations, such attachment or judgment Lien shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement for all purposes (including in relation to the First Priority Obligations) as the other Liens on Common Collateral securing the Second Priority Obligations are subject to this Agreement.

3.8 Second Priority Interest, Principal, Etc. Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by the Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Secured Parties of payments (including in cash) of interest, principal and other amounts owed in respect of the Second Priority Obligations unless such receipt is (x) the direct or indirect result of the exercise by the Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Secured Parties of rights or remedies with respect to, or enforcement of, any Lien on Common Collateral held by any of them, which exercise or enforcement is inconsistent with, or in contravention of, the express terms of this Agreement or (y) from the proceeds of an Enforcement Action required to be applied in accordance with Section 4.1 below. Nothing in this Agreement impairs or otherwise adversely affects any rights or remedies the First Priority Representative or the First Priority Secured Parties may have with respect to the Common Collateral.

3.9 Notice By First Priority Representative. The First Priority Representative shall render to Second Priority Representative written notice of the occurrence of the events described in clauses (a), (b) and (c) of the definition of “First Priority Obligations Payment Date” as soon as practicable (and in any event within two business days) following the occurrence thereof, provided that such notice shall not be required in connection with the consummation of a Replacement First Priority Agreement.

SECTION 4. Application Of Proceeds Of Common Collateral; Dispositions And Releases Of Common Collateral; Inspection and Insurance.

4.1 Application of Proceeds; Turnover Provisions. All proceeds of Common Collateral (including without limitation any interest earned thereon) resulting from the sale, collection or other disposition of Common Collateral in connection with an Enforcement Action or the exercise by any First Priority Secured Party or any Second Priority Secured Party of any of its respective rights and remedies with respect to Common Collateral, whether or not pursuant to an Insolvency Proceeding, shall be distributed as follows: first to the First Priority Representative for application to the First Priority Obligations in accordance with the terms of the First Priority Documents, until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date has occurred and thereafter, to the Second Priority Representative for application in accordance with the Second Priority Documents. Until the occurrence of the First Priority Obligations Payment Date, any Common Collateral, including without limitation any such Common Collateral constituting proceeds, that may be received by any Second Priority Secured Party in violation of this Agreement shall be segregated and held in trust and promptly paid over to the First Priority Representative, for the benefit of the First Priority Secured Parties, in the same form as received, with any necessary endorsements, and each Second Priority Secured Party hereby authorizes the First Priority Representative to make any such endorsements as agent for the Second Priority Representative (which authorization, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable).

4.2 Releases of Second Priority Lien. (a) Upon any release, sale or disposition of Common Collateral (other than in connection with the occurrence of the First Priority Obligations Payment Date) permitted pursuant to the terms of the First Priority Documents that results in the release of the First Priority Lien on any Common Collateral (excluding any sale or other disposition that is not permitted by the Second Priority Documents unless such sale or disposition is consummated in connection with an Enforcement Action or consummated after the institution of an Insolvency Proceeding in respect of any Loan Party), the Second Priority Lien on such Common Collateral (excluding any portion of the proceeds

16

of such Common Collateral remaining after the First Priority Obligations Payment Date occurs) shall be automatically and unconditionally released with no further consent or action of any Person.

(b) The Second Priority Representative shall promptly execute and deliver such release documents and instruments and shall take such further actions as the First Priority Representative shall request to evidence any release of the Second Priority Lien described in paragraph (a). The Second Priority Representative hereby appoints the First Priority Representative and any officer or duly authorized person of the First Priority Representative, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power of attorney in the place and stead of the Second Priority Representative and in the name of the Second Priority Representative or in the First Priority Representative’s own name, from time to time, in the First Priority Representative’s sole discretion, for the purposes of carrying out the terms of this Section 4.2, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute and deliver any and all documents and instruments as may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Section 4.2, including, without limitation, any financing statements, endorsements, assignments, releases or other documents or instruments of transfer (which appointment, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable).

(a) Any First Priority Secured Party and its representatives and invitees may at any time inspect, repossess, remove and otherwise deal with the Common Collateral in accordance with the terms of the First Priority Documents, and the First Priority Representative may advertise and conduct public auctions or private sales of the Common Collateral, in each case without notice to, the involvement of or interference by any Second Priority Secured Party or liability to any Second Priority Secured Party; provided that the First Priority Representative shall provide the Second Priority Representative with notice of any sales.

(b) Until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date has occurred, the First Priority Representative will have the sole and exclusive right (i) to be named as additional insured and loss payee under any insurance policies maintained from time to time by any Loan Party (except that the Second Priority Representative shall have the right to be named as additional insured and loss payee so long as its second lien status is identified in a manner satisfactory to the First Priority Representative); (ii) to adjust or settle any insurance policy or claim covering the Common Collateral in the event of any loss thereunder in accordance with the terms of the First Priority Documents; (iii) to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding affecting the Common Collateral in accordance with the terms of the First Priority Documents; and (iv) to apply the proceeds of any insurance or condemnation award to the First Priority Obligations in accordance with the terms of the First Priority Documents.

4.4 Subrogation. With respect to the value of any payments or distributions in cash, property or other assets that any Second Priority Secured Party pays over to the First Priority Secured Parties under the terms of this Agreement, the Second Priority Secured Parties shall be subrogated to the rights of the First Priority Secured Parties; provided that, the Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the Second Priority Creditors, hereby agrees not to assert or enforce all such rights of subrogation it may acquire as a result of any payment hereunder until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date has occurred. Each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that the value of any payments or distributions in cash, property or other assets received by any Second Priority Secured Party that are paid over to the First Priority Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement shall not reduce any of the Second Priority Obligations.

17

SECTION 5. Insolvency Proceedings.

5.1 Filing of Motions. Until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date has occurred, the Second Priority Representative agrees on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties that no Second Priority Secured Party shall, in or in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding in respect of any Loan Party, file any pleadings or motions, take any position at any hearing or proceeding of any nature, or otherwise take any action whatsoever, in each case that (a) violates, or is prohibited by, this Agreement, (b) asserts any right, benefit or privilege that arises in favor of the Second Priority Representative or Second Priority Secured Parties in their capacity as secured creditors solely as a result of their interest in the Common Collateral or in the Second Priority Lien (unless the assertion of such right is expressly permitted by this Agreement) or (c) challenges the validity, priority, enforceability or voidability of any Liens or claims held by the First Priority Representative or any other First Priority Secured Party, or the extent to which the First Priority Obligations constitute secured claims under section 506(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise; provided that the Second Priority Representative may take the actions specifically set forth in Section 3.2.

The First Priority Representative agrees on behalf of itself and the other First Priority Secured Parties that no First Priority Secured Party shall, in or in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding, file any pleadings or motions, take any position at any hearing or proceeding of any nature, or otherwise take any action whatsoever, in each case that challenges the validity, priority, enforceability or voidability of any Liens or claims held by the Second Priority Representative or any other Second Priority Secured Party, or the extent to which the Second Priority Obligations constitute secured claims under section 506(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, except that the foregoing shall not limit the ability of any First Priority Secured Party to enforce the terms of this Agreement.

5.2 Financing Matters. Until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date has occurred, if any Loan Party becomes subject to any Insolvency Proceeding, and if the First Priority Representative or the other First Priority Secured Parties consent to the use of cash collateral under the Bankruptcy Code or provide financing to any Loan Party under the Bankruptcy Code or consent to the provision of such financing to any Loan Party by any third party that (w) is in an aggregate principal amount (including any undrawn portion of the revolving commitments thereunder and the face amount of any letters of credit issued and not reimbursed thereunder) of no more than the sum of (i) the amount by which the Maximum First Priority Amount then exceeds the First Priority Outstanding Amount plus (ii) $35,000,000, the proceeds of which are used solely by, and for the benefit of, the Loan Parties (and not, for the avoidance of doubt, any Pulitzer Entity) (x) provides that the Second Priority Secured Parties retain the right to object to any ancillary agreements or arrangements regarding the cash collateral use or the financing that are materially adverse to the Second Priority Secured Parties, (y) provides the Second Priority Secured Parties with the Second Priority Required Adequate Protection, and (z) does not compel the Loan Parties to pursue any specific plan or to conduct a sale or other liquidation of the Common Collateral (any such financing that complies with such clauses (w)-(z) (a “DIP Financing”), then the Second Priority Representative agrees, on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties, that each Second Priority Secured Party (a) will raise no objection to, nor support any other Person objecting to, the use of such cash collateral or to such DIP Financing, (b) will not request or accept adequate protection or any other relief in connection with the use of such cash collateral or such DIP Financing except as set forth in Section 5.4 below and (c) to the extent the Liens securing the First Priority Obligations are subordinated to or pari passu with such DIP Financing will subordinate (and will be deemed hereunder to have subordinated) the Second Priority Liens (i) to such DIP Financing on the same terms as the First Priority Liens are subordinated thereto (and such subordination will not alter in any manner the terms of this Agreement), (ii) to any adequate protection provided to the First Priority Secured Parties and (iii) to any

18

“carve-out” agreed to by the First Priority Representative or the other First Priority Secured Parties in an amount not to exceed $5,000,000, and (d) agrees that notice received two calendar days prior to the entry of an interim order approving such usage of cash collateral or approving such financing and fifteen days prior to the entry of a final order approving such usage of cash collateral or approving such financing shall be adequate notice.

5.3 Relief From the Automatic Stay. The Second Priority Representative agrees, on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties, that none of them will seek relief from the automatic stay (or any analogous stay) in any Insolvency Proceeding in respect of a Loan Party or take any action in derogation thereof, in each case in respect of any Common Collateral, without the prior written consent of the First Priority Representative unless the First Priority Representative or any of the First Priority Secured Parties have concurrently sought relief from the automatic stay (or from any analogous stay) in any Insolvency Proceeding and the Second Priority Representative and/or the other Second Priority Secured Parties are not seeking relief from the automatic stay (or from any analogous stay) in any Insolvency Proceeding in order to take any Enforcement Action in any manner in violation of or otherwise inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement.

5.4 Adequate Protection. The Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties, agrees that none of them shall object, contest, or support any other Person objecting to or contesting, in respect of any Insolvency Proceeding of a Loan Party, (a) any request by the First Priority Representative or the other First Priority Secured Parties for adequate protection or any adequate protection provided to the First Priority Representative or the other First Priority Secured Parties or (b) any objection by the First Priority Representative or any other First Priority Secured Parties to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on a claim of a lack of adequate protection or (c) the payment of interest, fees, expenses or other amounts to the First Priority Representative or any other First Priority Secured Party under section 506(b) or 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise. In any Insolvency Proceeding of a Loan Party, (i) if the First Priority Secured Parties (or any subset thereof) are granted adequate protection consisting of additional collateral (with replacement liens on such additional collateral) and superpriority claims in connection with any DIP Financing or use of cash collateral, then in connection with any such DIP Financing or use of cash collateral, the Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and any of the Second Priority Secured Parties, may seek or accept adequate protection consisting solely of (w) a replacement Lien on the same additional collateral, subordinated to the Liens securing the First Priority Obligations and such DIP Financing on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Second Priority Obligations are so subordinated to the First Priority Obligations under this Agreement, (x) superpriority claims junior in all respects to the superpriority claims granted to the First Priority Secured Parties, (y) payment of the fees and expenses of the Second Priority Representative and the Second Priority Secured Parties, to the extent permitted in the Second Priority Documents (the adequate protection for the Second Priority Secured Parties described in clauses (w), (x), and (y), collectively, the “Second Priority Required Adequate Protection”) and (z) subject to the right of the First Priority Secured Parties to object thereto, the payment of post-petition interest at the pre-default rate (provided, that in the case of this clause (z), that the First Priority Secured Parties have been granted adequate protection in the form of post-petition interest at a rate no lower than the pre-default rate), provided, however, that the Second Priority Representative shall have irrevocably agreed, pursuant to section 1129(a)(9) of the Bankruptcy Code, on behalf of itself and the Second Priority Secured Parties, in any stipulation and/or order granting such adequate protection, that such junior superpriority claims in excess of $3,000,000 may with the consent of two-thirds in amount of the Second Priority Obligations 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 and (ii) in the event the Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the

19

Second Priority Secured Parties, seeks or accepts adequate protection in respect of Loan Party in accordance with clause (i) above and such adequate protection is granted in the form of additional collateral comprising assets of a Loan Party, then the Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself or any of the Second Priority Secured Parties, agrees that the First Priority Representative shall also be granted a senior Lien on such additional collateral as security for the First Priority Obligations and any such DIP Financing and that any Lien on such additional collateral securing the Second Priority Obligations shall be subordinated to the Liens on such collateral securing the First Priority Obligations and any such DIP Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto) and any other Liens granted to the First Priority Secured Parties as adequate protection, with such subordination to be on the same terms that the other Liens securing the Second Priority Obligations are subordinated to such First Priority Obligations under this Agreement. The Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties, agrees that except as expressly set forth in this Section none of them shall seek or accept adequate protection in respect of a Loan Party without the prior written consent of the First Priority Representative.

5.5 Avoidance Issues. If any First Priority Secured Party is required in any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise to disgorge, turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of any Loan Party, because such amount was avoided or ordered to be paid or disgorged for any reason, including without limitation because it was found to be a constructively fraudulent or preferential transfer, any amount (a “Recovery”), whether received as proceeds of security, enforcement of any right of set-off or otherwise, then the First Priority Obligations shall be reinstated to the extent of such Recovery and deemed to be outstanding as if such payment had not occurred and the First Priority Obligations Payment Date shall be deemed not to have occurred. 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. The Second Priority Secured Parties agree that none of them shall be entitled to benefit from any avoidance action affecting or otherwise relating to the First Priority Liens or the Second Priority Liens, it being understood and agreed that the benefit of such avoidance action otherwise allocable to them shall instead be allocated and turned over for application in accordance with the priorities set forth in this Agreement.

5.6 Asset Dispositions in an Insolvency Proceeding. In an Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise, neither the Second Priority Representative nor any other Second Priority Secured Party shall oppose any sale or disposition of any assets of any Loan Party that is supported by the First Priority Secured Parties (or any right of the First Priority Secured Party to credit bid the First Priority Obligations in any such sale or disposition), and the Second Priority Representative and each other Second Priority Secured Party will be deemed to have consented under section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (and otherwise) to any sale (and related matters) supported by the First Priority Secured Parties and to have released their Liens on such assets provided that their Liens attach to the proceeds of such assets (subject to the priorities set forth in this Agreement) and that the proceeds remaining after payment of related transaction costs and expenses are applied as a permanent reduction of the First Priority Obligations (with a corresponding reduction in the Maximum First Priority Amount). In an Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise, neither the First Priority Representative nor any other First Priority Secured Party shall oppose any right of any Second Priority Secured Party to credit bid the Second Priority Obligations in any sale or disposition, provided that such bid provides for the payment in full of the First Priority Obligations and the occurrence of the events described in clauses (a), (b) and (c) of the definition of First Priority Obligations Payment Date.

5.7 Separate Grants of Security and Separate Classification. Each Secured Party and Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that (a) the grants of Liens on the assets of each Loan Party pursuant to

20

the First Priority Security Documents and the Second Priority Security Documents constitute two separate and distinct grants of Liens and (b) because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Common Collateral, the First Priority Obligations and the Second Priority Obligations are fundamentally different from each other and must be separately classified in any plan of reorganization proposed or adopted in an Insolvency 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 Priority Secured Parties and Second Priority Secured Parties in respect of the Common Collateral constitute only one secured claim (rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims), then the Second Priority Secured Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that all distributions shall be made as if there were separate classes of senior and junior secured claims against the Loan Parties in respect of the Common Collateral, with the effect being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the Common Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the Second Priority Secured Parties), the First Priority Secured Parties shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them in respect of principal, pre-petition interest and other claims, all amounts owing in respect of Post-Petition Interest before any distribution is made in respect of the claims held by the Second Priority Secured Parties. The Second Priority Secured Parties hereby acknowledge and agree to turn over to the First Priority Secured Parties amounts otherwise received or receivable by them to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of the preceding sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing the claim or recovery of the Second Priority Secured Parties.

5.8 No Waivers of Rights. Nothing contained herein shall prohibit or in any way limit the First Priority Representative, the Second Priority Representative, any First Priority Secured Party, or any Second Priority Secured Party from objecting, in any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise, to any action taken by any party not permitted hereunder.

5.9 Plans of Reorganization. Nothing in this Agreement shall impair the rights of any Second Priority Secured Party to propose, support, or vote in favor of or against any plan of reorganization or similar plan or scheme in any Insolvency Proceeding, so long as such plan or scheme is not inconsistent with, or in contravention of, the express terms of this Agreement, provided that in the case of proposing such plan of reorganization or similar plan or scheme it shall, unless otherwise approved by the First Priority Representative, provide for payment in full of the First Priority Obligations and the occurrence of the events described in clauses (a), (b) and (c) of the definition of the First Priority Obligations Payment Date.

5.10 Effectiveness in Insolvency Proceedings. This Agreement, which the parties hereto expressly acknowledge is a “subordination agreement” under section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, shall be effective before, during and after the commencement of an Insolvency Proceeding.

SECTION 6. Security Documents.

(a) Each Loan Party and the Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the Second Priority Secured Parties, agrees that it shall not at any time execute or deliver any amendment or other modification to any of the Second Priority Documents that is inconsistent with or in violation of this Agreement.

(b) Each Loan Party and the First Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the First Priority Secured Parties, agrees that it shall not at any time execute or deliver any amendment or other modification to any of the First Priority Documents that is inconsistent with or in violation of this Agreement.

21

(c) In the event the First Priority Representative enters into any amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the First Priority Security Documents for the purpose of adding to, or deleting from, or waiving or consenting to any departures from any provisions of, any First Priority Security Document or changing in any manner the rights of any parties thereunder, then such amendment, waiver or consent shall apply automatically to any comparable provision of the Comparable Second Priority Security Document to the extent applicable to any Loan Party and Common Collateral without the consent of or action by any Second Priority Secured Party (with all such amendments, waivers and modifications subject to the terms hereof); provided that (other than with respect to amendments, modifications or waivers that secure additional extensions of credit and add additional secured creditors and do not violate the express provisions of the Second Priority Agreements), (i) no such amendment, waiver or consent shall have the effect of removing assets subject to the Lien of any Second Priority Security Document, except to the extent that a release of such Lien is permitted by Section 4.2, (ii) any such amendment, waiver or consent that materially and adversely affects the rights of the Second Priority Secured Parties and does not affect the First Priority Secured Parties in a like or similar manner shall not apply to the Second Priority Security Documents without the prior written consent of the Second Priority Representative, (iii) no such amendment, waiver or consent with respect to any provision applicable to the Second Priority Representative under the Second Priority Documents shall be made without the prior written consent of the Second Priority Representative and (iv) notice of such amendment, waiver or consent shall be given to the Second Priority Representative no later than 15 days after its effectiveness, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the effectiveness and validity thereof.

SECTION 7. Reliance; Waivers; etc.

7.1 Reliance. The First Priority Documents are deemed to have been executed and delivered, and all extensions of credit thereunder are deemed to have been made or incurred, in reliance upon this Agreement. The Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the Second Priority Secured Parties, expressly waives all notice of the acceptance of and reliance on this Agreement by the First Priority Secured Parties. The Second Priority Documents are deemed to have been executed and delivered and all extensions of credit related thereto are deemed to have been made or incurred, in reliance upon this Agreement. The First Priority Representative expressly waives all notices of the acceptance of and reliance by the Second Priority Representative and the Second Priority Secured Parties.

7.2 No Warranties or Liability. The Second Priority Representative and the First Priority Representative acknowledge and agree that neither has made any representation or warranty with respect to the execution, validity, legality, completeness, collectibility or enforceability of any First Priority Document or any Second Priority Document. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Second Priority Representative and the First Priority Representative will be entitled to manage and supervise their respective extensions of credit to any Loan Party in accordance with law and their usual practices, modified from time to time as they deem appropriate.

7.3 No Waivers. No right or benefit of any party hereunder shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of such party or any other party hereto or by any noncompliance by any Loan Party with the terms and conditions of any of the First Priority Documents or the Second Priority Documents.

SECTION 8. Obligations Unconditional.

8.1 First Priority Obligations Unconditional. All rights and interests of the First Priority Secured Parties hereunder, and all agreements and obligations of the Second Priority Secured Parties

22

(and, to the extent applicable, the Loan Parties) hereunder, shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of:
