Reliance by Holders of Senior Indebtedness on Subordination Provisions (a) Each Holder by accepting a Security of any series acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing subordination provisions are, and are intended to be, an inducement and a consideration to each holder of any Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer, whether such Senior Indebtedness was created or acquired before or after the issuance of the Securities, to acquire and continue to hold, or to continue to hold, such Senior Indebtedness and such holder of such Senior Indebtedness shall be deemed conclusively to have relied on such subordination provisions in acquiring and continuing to hold, or in continuing to hold, such Senior Indebtedness.
(b) Without in any way limiting the generality of paragraph (a) of this Section, the holders of Senior Indebtedness may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to the Trustee or the Holders, without incurring responsibility to the Holders and without impairing or releasing the subordination provided in this Article Four or the obligations hereunder of the Holders to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, do any one or more of the following: (1) change the manner, place or terms of payment or extend the time of payment of, or renew or alter, Senior Indebtedness or any instrument evidencing the same or any agreement under which Senior Indebtedness is outstanding; (2) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing Senior Indebtedness; (3) release any Person liable in any manner for the collection of Senior Indebtedness; and (4) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Issuer, any Guarantor or any other Person.
Subordination Provisions The Sponsor covenants and agrees, and the Servicer, by its acceptance of this Note, likewise covenants and agrees, that the payment of all Junior Liabilities is hereby expressly subordinated in right of payment to the payment and performance of the Senior Liabilities to the extent and in the manner set forth in the following clauses of this paragraph 7:
(i) In the event of any dissolution, winding up, liquidation, readjustment, reorganization or other similar event relating to the Sponsor, whether voluntary or involuntary, partial or complete, and whether in bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other similar proceedings, or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or any other marshalling of the assets and liabilities of the Sponsor or any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Sponsor except pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement (such proceedings being herein collectively called “Bankruptcy Proceedings”), and (ii) on and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Senior Liabilities shall first be paid and performed in full and in cash before the Servicer shall be entitled to receive and to retain any payment or distribution in respect of the Junior Liabilities. In order to implement the foregoing: (x) all payments and distributions of any kind or character in respect of the Junior Liabilities to which the Servicer would be entitled except for this clause (a) shall be made directly to the Indenture Trustee (for the benefit of the Noteholders, and the Insurer); and (y) the Servicer hereby irrevocably agrees that the Indenture Trustee (on behalf of the Noteholders), in the name of the Servicer or otherwise, may demand, xxx for, collect, receive and receipt for any and all such payments or distributions, and file, prove and vote or consent in any such Bankruptcy Proceedings with respect to any and all claims of the Servicer relating to the Junior Liabilities, in each case until the Senior Liabilities shall have been paid and performed in full and in cash.
(b) Following the occurrence of any of the events described in clause (a)(i) or (ii), in the event that the Servicer receives any payment or other distribution of any kind or character from the Sponsor or from any other source whatsoever, in respect of the Junior Liabilities, such payment or other distribution shall be received in trust for the Indenture Trustee and shall be turned over by the Servicer to the Indenture Trustee (for the benefit of the Noteholders, and the Insurer) forthwith. All payments and distributions received by the Indenture Trustee in respect of this Note, to the extent received in or converted into cash, may be applied by the Indenture Trustee (for the benefit of the Noteholders and the Insurer) first to the payment of any and all reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses) paid or incurred by the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders or the Insurer in enforcing these Subordination Provisions, or in endeavoring to collect or realize upon the Junior Liabilities, and any balance thereof shall, solely as between the Servicer and the Noteholders and the Insurer, be applied by the Indenture Trustee toward the payment of the Senior Liabilities in a manner determined by the Indenture Trustee to be in accordance with the Indenture; but as between the Sponsor and its creditors, no such payments or distributions of any kind or character shall be deemed to be payments or distributions in respect of the Senior Liabilities.
(c) Upon the final payment in full and in cash of all Senior Liabilities, the Servicer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Indenture Trustee to receive payments or distributions from the Sponsor that are applicable to the Senior Liabilities until the Junior Liabilities are paid in full.
(d) These Subordination Provisions are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Servicer, on the one hand, and the Indenture Trustee (on behalf of Noteholders and the Insurer), on the other hand. Nothing contained in these Subordination Provisions or elsewhere in this Note (subject to paragraph 10 hereof) is intended to or shall impair, as between the Sponsor, its creditors (other than the Noteholders and the Insurer) and the Servicer, the Sponsor’s obligation, which is unconditional and absolute, to pay the Junior Liabilities as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof (subject to paragraph 10 hereof) and of the Sale and Servicing Agreement or to affect the relative rights of the Servicer and creditors of the Sponsor (other than the Noteholders and the Insurer).
(e) The Servicer shall not, until the Senior Liabilities have been finally paid and performed in full and in cash, (i) cancel, waive, forgive, transfer or assign, or commence legal proceedings to enforce or collect, or subordinate to any obligation of the Sponsor, howsoever created, arising or evidenced, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, or now or thereafter existing, or due or to become due (other than the Senior Liabilities), the Junior Liabilities or any rights in respect hereof or (ii) convert the Junior Liabilities into an equity interest in the Sponsor, unless, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, the Servicer shall have received the prior written consent of the Indenture Trustee and the Insurer in each case.
(f) The Servicer shall not, except without the advance written consent of the Indenture Trustee and the Insurer commence, or join with any other Person in commencing, any Bankruptcy Proceedings with respect to the Sponsor until at least one year and one day have passed since the Termination Date.
(g) If, at any time, any of the payment (in whole or in part) made with respect to any Senior Liabilities is rescinded or must be restored or returned by the Indenture Trustee or Noteholders or the Insurer (whether in connection with any Bankruptcy Proceedings or otherwise), these Subordination Provisions shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated, as the case may be, as though such payment had not been made.
(h) The Indenture Trustee (on behalf of Noteholders and the Insurer) may, from time to time, with the consent of the Insurer without notice to the Servicer, and without waiving any of its rights under these Subordination Provisions, take any or all of the following actions: retain or obtain an interest in any property to secure any of the Senior Liabilities; (ii) retain or obtain the primary or secondary obligations of any other obligor or obligors with respect to any of the Senior Liabilities; (iii) extend or renew for one or more periods (whether or not longer than the original period), alter or exchange any of the Senior Liabilities, or release or compromise any obligation of any nature with respect to any of the Senior Liabilities; (iv) amend, supplement, amend and restate, or otherwise modify the Sale and Servicing Agreement or any related document; and (v) release its security interest in or surrender, release or permit any substitution or exchange for all or any part of any rights or property securing any of the Senior Liabilities, or extend or renew for one or more periods (whether or not longer than the original period) or release, compromise, alter or exchange any obligations of any nature of any obligor with respect to any such rights or property.
(i) The Servicer hereby waives: (i) notice of acceptance of these Subordination Provisions by any of the Noteholders and the Insurer, (ii) notice of the existence, creation, non-payment or non-performance of all or any of the Senior Liabilities; and (iii) all diligence in enforcement, collection or protection of, or realization upon, the Senior Liabilities, or any thereof, or any security therefor.
(j) These Subordination Provisions constitute a continuing offer from the Sponsor to all Persons who become the holders of, or who continue to hold, Senior Liabilities; and these Subordination Provisions are made for the benefit of the Noteholders and the Insurer, and the Indenture Trustee may proceed to enforce such provisions on behalf of each of such Persons.
SUBORDINATION OF NOTES Section 11.01.
Agreement of Subordination The Company covenants and agrees, and each holder of Notes issued hereunder by its acceptance thereof likewise covenants and agrees, that all Notes shall be issued subject to the provisions of this Article Four, and each Person holding any Note, whether upon original issue or upon registration of transfer, assignment or exchange thereof, accepts and agrees to be bound by such provisions. The payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest (including Liquidated Damages, if any) on all Notes (including, but not limited to, the redemption price with respect to the Notes called for redemption in accordance with Section 3.2 or submitted for redemption in accordance with Section 3.5, as the case may be, as provided in this Indenture) issued hereunder shall, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, be subordinated and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, whether outstanding at the date of this Indenture or thereafter incurred. No provision of this Article Four shall prevent the occurrence of any default or Event of Default hereunder.
No Waiver of Subordination Provisions No right of any present or future holder of any Senior Indebtedness to enforce subordination as herein provided 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 by any act or failure to act, in good faith, by any such holder, or by any noncompliance by the Company with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof any such holder may have or be otherwise charged with. Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph, the holders of Senior Indebtedness may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Trustee or the Holders of the Securities, without incurring responsibility to the Holders of the Securities and without impairing or releasing the subordination provided in this Article XII or the obligations hereunder of the Holders of the Securities to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, do any one or more of the following: (i) change the manner, place or terms of payment or extend the time of payment of, or renew or alter, Senior Indebtedness, or otherwise amend or supplement in any manner Senior Indebtedness or any instrument evidencing the same or any agreement under which Senior Indebtedness is outstanding; (ii) sell, exchange, release or otherwise dispose of any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing Senior Indebtedness; (iii) release any person liable in any manner for the collection of Senior Indebtedness and (iv) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Company or any other person.
Direction of Proceedings and Waiver of Defaults by Majority of Noteholders The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee; provided, that (a) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, (b) the Trustee may take any other action which is not inconsistent with such direction, (c) the Trustee may decline to take any action that would benefit some Noteholders to the detriment of other Noteholders or otherwise be unduly prejudicial to the Noteholders not joining therein and (d) the Trustee may decline to take any action that would involve the Trustee in personal liability. Prior to taking any such action hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification reasonably satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, waive any past Default or Event of Default hereunder and its consequences except (i) a default in the payment of the principal of (including the Redemption Price upon redemption pursuant to Article 3 hereof), premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, unless such default has been cured and the Issuer or the Guarantor has deposited with the Trustee all required payments of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes (provided, however, that the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration) or (ii) a default in respect of a covenant or provisions hereof which under Article 9 hereof cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holders of all Notes then outstanding or each Note affected thereby. Upon any such waiver, the Issuer, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Whenever any Default or Event of Default hereunder shall have been waived as permitted by this Section 6.07, said Default or Event of Default shall for all purposes of the Notes and this Indenture be deemed to have been cured and to be not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Securities Subordinated to Senior Debt The Company covenants and agrees, and each Holder of Securities, by such Holder’s acceptance thereof, likewise covenants and agrees, that the Indebtedness represented by the Securities and the payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest, including Special Interest, if any, on each and all of the Securities is hereby expressly subordinated and junior, to the extent and in the manner set forth in this Section 5.01, in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Debt; provided, however, that the Securities, the Indebtedness represented thereby and the payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest, including Special Interest, if any, on the Securities in all respects shall rank equally with, or prior to, all existing and future Indebtedness of the Company that is expressly subordinated to any Senior Debt.
(a) In the event of any payment or distribution of assets of the Company upon any dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization of the Company, whether in bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or receivership proceedings or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other marshalling of the assets and liabilities of the Company or otherwise, the holders of all Senior Debt shall first be entitled to receive payment of the full amount due thereon in respect of all such Senior Debt and all other amounts due or provision shall be made for such amount in cash, or other payments satisfactory to the holders of Senior Debt, before the Holders of any of the Securities are entitled to receive any payment or distribution of any character, whether in cash, securities or other property, on account of the principal of or premium, if any, or interest, including Special Interest, if any, on the Securities.
(b) In the event of any acceleration of Maturity of the Securities because of an Event of Default, unless the full amount due in respect of all Senior Debt is paid in cash or other form of payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Debt, no payment shall be made by the Company with respect to the principal of, premium, if any, or interest, including Special Interest, if any, on the Securities or to acquire any of the Securities (including any conversion, redemption or cash repurchase pursuant to the exercise of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Right or otherwise), and the Company shall give prompt written notice of such acceleration to such holders of Senior Debt.
(c) In the event of and during the continuance of any default in payment of the principal of or premium, if any, or interest on, rent or other payment obligations in respect of, any Senior Debt, unless all such payments due in respect of such Senior Debt have been paid in full in cash or other payments satisfactory to the holders of Senior Debt, no payment shall be made by the Company with respect to the principal of, premium, if any, or interest, including Special Interest, if any, on the Securities or to acquire any of the Securities (including any conversion, redemption, or cash repurchase pursuant to the exercise of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Right). The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any default under any Senior Debt or under any agreement pursuant to which Senior Debt may have been issued.
(d) In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Sections 5.01(a), 5.01(b) and 5.01(c), any payment on account of principal, premium, if any, or interest, including Special Interest, if any, on the Securities shall be made by or on behalf of the Company and received by the Trustee, by any Holder or by any Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, money for any such payment shall be segregated and held in trust):
(1) after the occurrence of an event specified in Section 5.01(a) or 5.01(b), then, unless all Senior Debt is paid in full in cash, or provision shall be made therefor; or
(2) after the happening of an event of default of the type specified in Section 5.01(c) above, then, unless the amount of such Senior Debt then due shall have been paid in full, or provision made therefor or such event of default shall have been cured or waived, such payment (subject, in each case, to the provisions of Section 5.07 hereof) shall be held in trust for the benefit of, and shall be immediately paid over to, the holders of Senior Debt or their representative or representatives or the trustee or trustees under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any of the Senior Debt may have been issued, as their interests may appear.
Authorization to Effect Subordination Each Holder of Notes, by the Holder's acceptance thereof, authorizes and directs the Trustee on such Holder's behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination as provided in this Article 10, and appoints the Trustee to act as such Holder's attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. If the Trustee does not file a proper proof of claim or proof of debt in the form required in any proceeding referred to in Section 6.09 hereof at least 30 days before the expiration of the time to file such claim, the Representatives are hereby authorized to file an appropriate claim for and on behalf of the Holders of the Notes.
