• Intercreditor Provisions (a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) the Liens and security interests granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) the exercise of any right or remedy by the Collateral Agent hereunder or the application of proceeds (including insurance and condemnation proceeds) of any Collateral, in each case, are subject to the limitations and provisions of any applicable Intercreditor Agreement to the extent provided therein. In the event of any conflict between the terms of such applicable Intercreditor Agreement and the terms of this Agreement, the terms of such applicable Intercreditor Agreement shall govern. (b) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or any other Security Document, to the extent that the provisions of this Agreement (or any other Security Document) require the delivery of, or granting of control over, or giving notice with respect to, any Collateral in respect of which any other lenders or other secured parties (or representatives thereof) have a security interest therein that is senior priority relative to the security interest of the Collateral Agent pursuant to any Intercreditor Agreement, then until the obligations to such lenders or other secured parties (or representatives thereof) secured by such security interests (excluding contingent obligations as to which no claim has been made or which are otherwise not due) shall have been paid in full in cash and all commitments of such lenders or other secured parties (or representatives thereof) shall have been terminated, delivery of such Collateral (or control or notice with respect thereto) may instead be made to the applicable lender or other secured party (or representative thereof), to be held in accordance with the applicable Intercreditor Agreements, and any Grantor’s obligations hereunder with respect to such delivery, control or notice shall be deemed satisfied by such delivery to such lender or other secured party (or representative thereof). Furthermore, at all times prior to the obligations to such lenders or other secured parties (or representatives thereof) secured by such security interests (excluding contingent obligations as to which no claim has been made or which are otherwise not due) having been paid in full in cash and all commitments of such lenders or other secured parties (or representatives thereof) having been terminated, the Collateral Agent is authorized by the parties hereto to effect transfers of such Collateral at any time in its possession (and any “control” or similar agreements with respect to such Collateral) to the applicable lender or other secured party or representative thereof in accordance with the applicable Intercreditor Agreements.

• Intercreditor Agreements Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, this Agreement will be subject to the terms and provisions of the ABL/Bond Intercreditor Agreement and any other applicable Customary Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of this Agreement and the ABL/Bond Intercreditor Agreement or any other such Customary Intercreditor Agreement, the provisions of each Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control. The Lenders acknowledge and agree that the Administrative Agent is authorized to, and the Administrative Agent agrees that with respect to any applicable secured Indebtedness permitted to be incurred under this Agreement, upon request by the Borrower, it shall, enter into the ABL/Bond Intercreditor Agreement and any other Customary Intercreditor Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof. The Lenders authorize the Administrative Agent to (a) enter into the ABL/Bond Intercreditor Agreement, and any other such Customary Intercreditor Agreement, (b) bind the Lenders on the terms set forth in the ABL/Bond Intercreditor Agreement and such Customary Intercreditor Agreement and (c) perform and observe its obligations under the ABL/Bond Intercreditor Agreement and any such Customary Intercreditor Agreement.

• Intercreditor Agreement Governs Each Lender and Agent (a) hereby agrees that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement any other intercreditor agreement or subordination agreement entered into pursuant to the terms hereof, (b) hereby authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to enter into the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement and each other intercreditor agreement or subordination agreement and any other intercreditor agreement or subordination agreement entered into pursuant to the terms hereof and to subject the Liens securing the Secured Obligations to the provisions thereof and (c) hereby authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to enter into the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement and any other intercreditor agreement or subordination agreement that includes, or to amend the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement any then existing intercreditor agreement or subordination agreement to provide for, the terms described in the definition of the terms “Permitted First Priority Replacement Debt” or “Permitted Second Priority Replacement Debt” or other “First Lien Senior Secured Note” or the Collateral Agent, as applicable or as otherwise provided for by the terms of this Agreement; provided that in each case, such intercreditor agreement is substantially consistent with the terms set forth on Exhibit K-1 or K-2 annexed hereto together with (A) any immaterial changes and (B) changes implementing additional extensions of credit permitted under this Agreement, in each case in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent (it being understood that junior Liens are not required to be pari passu with other junior Liens, and that Indebtedness secured by junior Liens may secured by Liens that are pari passu with, or junior in priority to, other Liens that are junior to the Liens securing the Obligations).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, to the extent of any conflict between this Agreement and any Intercreditor Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail.

• Agents under Collateral Documents and Guaranty Each Secured Party hereby further authorizes Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, on behalf of and for the benefit of Secured Parties, to be the agent for and representative of Secured Parties with respect to the Guaranty, the Collateral and the Collateral Documents; provided that neither Administrative Agent nor Collateral Agent shall owe any fiduciary duty, duty of loyalty, duty of care, duty of disclosure or any other obligation whatsoever to any holder of Obligations with respect to any Hedge Agreement.
