Liens Subordinate Guarantor agrees that any liens, security interests, judgment liens, charges or other encumbrances upon Borrower’s assets securing payment of the Guarantor Claims shall be and remain inferior and subordinate to any liens, security interests, judgment liens, charges or other encumbrances upon Borrower’s assets securing payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, regardless of whether such encumbrances in favor of Guarantor or Lender presently exist or are hereafter created or attach. Without the prior written consent of Lender, Guarantor shall not (i) exercise or enforce any creditor’s right it may have against Borrower, or (ii) foreclose, repossess, sequester or otherwise take steps or institute any action or proceedings (judicial or otherwise, including without limitation the commencement of, or joinder in, any liquidation, bankruptcy, rearrangement, debtor’s relief or insolvency proceeding) to enforce any liens, mortgage, deeds of trust, security interests, collateral rights, judgments or other encumbrances on assets of Borrower held by Guarantor.

Authorization to Release Liens and Guarantees The Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized by each of the Lenders to effect any release of Liens or guarantee obligations contemplated by Section 10.15.
Release of Liens and Guarantees A Subsidiary Loan Party (other than a Borrower) shall automatically be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents, and all security interests created by the Security Documents in Collateral owned by such Subsidiary Loan Party shall be automatically released, (1) upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by this Agreement as a result of which such Subsidiary Loan Party ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary (including pursuant to a merger with a Subsidiary that is not a Loan Party or a designation as an Unrestricted Subsidiary) or (2) upon the request of the Borrower, in connection with a transaction permitted under this Agreement, as a result of which such Subsidiary Loan party ceases to be a wholly-owned Subsidiary. Upon any sale or other transfer by any Loan Party (other than to Holdings, the Parent Borrower, the Co-Borrower or any other Subsidiary Loan Party) of any Collateral in a transaction permitted under this Agreement, or upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the security interest created under any Security Document in any Collateral or the release of any Loan Party from its Guarantee under the Guarantee Agreement pursuant to Section 9.02, the security interests in such Collateral created by the Security Documents or such guarantee shall be automatically released. Upon termination of the aggregate Commitments and payment in full of all Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit including as a result of obtaining the consent of the applicable Issuing Bank as described in Section 9.05 of the Credit Agreement), all obligations under the Loan Documents and all security interests created by the Security Documents shall be automatically released. In connection with any termination or release pursuant to this Section, the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to any Loan Party, at such Loan Party’s expense, all documents that such Loan Party shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent.
Payment Subordination Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, all of Junior Lender’s rights to payment of the Junior Loan (including, but not limited to, payment of principal, interest, and prepayment fees) and the obligations evidenced by the Junior Loan Documents are hereby subordinated to all of Senior Lender’s rights to payment by Borrower of the Senior Loan and the obligations secured by the Senior Loan Documents, including any Protective Advances by the Senior Lender. If a Proceeding shall have occurred or a Continuing Senior Loan Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then (i) Junior Lender shall not accept or receive payments (including, without limitation, whether in cash or other property and whether received directly, indirectly or by set-off, counterclaim or otherwise) from Borrower, from the Premises or from any other source unless all obligations under the Senior Loan Documents are paid, and (ii) Senior Lender shall be entitled to receive payment and performance in full of all amounts due or owing from Borrower or guarantor before Junior Lender is entitled to receive any payment on account of the Junior Loan. All payments or distributions upon or with respect to the Junior Loan which are received by Junior Lender contrary to the provisions of this Agreement shall be received and held in trust by the Junior Lender for the benefit of Senior Lender and shall be paid over to Senior Lender in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be applied to (in the case of cash), or held as collateral for (in the case of non-cash property or securities), the payment or performance of the Senior Loan in accordance with the terms of the Senior Loan Documents. Nothing contained herein shall prohibit the Junior Lender from making Protective Advances (and adding the amount thereof to the principal balance of the Junior Loan) notwithstanding the existence of a default under the Senior Loan at such time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 9(a), so long as a Proceeding has not occurred or a Continuing Senior Loan Event of Default is not outstanding, Junior Lender may accept payments of any amounts due and payable from time to time that Borrower is obligated to pay to Junior Lender in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Junior Loan Documents and Junior Lender shall have no obligation to pay over to Senior Lender any such amounts. Prior to commencing any Enforcement Action, Junior Lender shall (i) give the Senior Lender written notice of the default which would permit Junior Lender to commence such Enforcement Action, (ii) obtain Senior Lender’s prior written consent, which consent may be granted or withheld in Senior Lender’s sole and absolute discretion, to such Enforcement Action, and (iii) provide Senior Lender with copies of any and all material notices, pleadings, agreements, motions and briefs served upon, delivered to or with any party to any Enforcement Action and otherwise keep Senior Lender reasonably apprised as to the status of any Enforcement Action. In the event of a casualty to the buildings or improvements constructed on any portion of the Premises or a condemnation or taking under a power of eminent domain of all or any portion of the Premises, Senior Lender shall have a first and prior interest in and to any payments, awards, proceeds, distributions, or consideration arising from any such event (the “Award”). If (x) the amount of the Award is in excess of all amounts owed to Senior Lender under the Senior Loan Documents, however, and (y) either the Senior Loan has been paid in full or Borrower is entitled to a remittance of same under the Senior Loan Documents other than to repair or restore the Premises, such excess Award or portion to be so remitted to Borrower shall, to the extent permitted in the Senior Loan Documents, be paid to or at the direction of Junior Lender, unless other Persons have claimed the right to such Award, in which case Senior Lender shall only be required to provide notice to Junior Lender of such excess Award and of any other claims thereto. In the event of any competing claims for any such excess Award, Senior Lender shall continue to hold such excess Award until Senior Lender receives an agreement signed by all Persons making a claim to the excess Award or a final order of a court of competent jurisdiction directing Senior Lender as to how and to which Person(s) the excess Award is to be distributed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a casualty or condemnation, Senior Lender shall release the Award from any such event to the Borrower if and to the extent required by the terms and conditions of the Senior Loan Documents in order to repair and restore the Premises in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Senior Loan Documents. Any portion of the Award made available to the Borrower for the repair or restoration of the Premises shall not be subject to attachment by Junior Lender.
