Each Pledgor agrees that at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors, (i) such Pledgor will maintain the security interest created by this Agreement in the Pledged Collateral as a perfected first priority security interest and shall defend such security interest against the claims and demands of all persons except Permitted Collateral Liens, (ii) such Pledgor shall furnish to the Collateral Agent from time to time statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Pledged Collateral and such other reports in connection with the Pledged Collateral as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail and (iii) at any time and from time to time, upon the written request of the Collateral Agent, such Pledgor shall promptly and duly execute and deliver, and file and have recorded, such further instruments and documents and take such further action as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request for the purpose of obtaining or preserving the full benefits of this Agreement and the rights and powers herein granted, including the filing of any financing statements, continuation statements and other documents (including this Agreement) under the Uniform Commercial Code (or other similar laws) in effect in any jurisdiction with respect to the security interest created hereby and the execution and delivery of Control Agreements, all in form reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and in such offices (including the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office) wherever required by law to perfect, continue and maintain a valid, enforceable, first priority security interest in the Pledged Collateral as provided herein and to preserve the other rights and interests granted to the Collateral Agent hereunder, as against third parties, with respect to the Pledged Collateral.
Superior Liens Where permitted by local law and where the senior lienholder is required to notify a junior lienholder be named as a party defendant in foreclosure proceedings in order to foreclose such junior lienholder’s equity of redemption, the Servicer shall file (or cause to be filed) a request for notice of any action by a superior lienholder under a First Lien for the protection of the Trust interests in the related second lien Mortgage Loan, the expense of which shall constitute a Servicing Advance to the extent not otherwise reimbursed by the Seller. In jurisdictions where the senior lienholder is not required to notify a junior lienholder be named as party defendant in foreclosure proceedings in order to foreclose on such lienholder, the Servicer shall cause the First Lien relating to each second lien Mortgage Loan to be tracked to protect the Trust’s interest in such second lien Mortgage Loan, the expense of which shall constitute a Servicing Advance to the extent not otherwise reimbursed by the Seller.

The Servicer shall not make a Servicing Advance with respect thereto except to the extent that it determines in its reasonable good faith judgment that such advance would be recoverable from Liquidation Proceeds on the related second lien Mortgage Loan and in no event in an amount that is greater than the then outstanding principal balance of the related second lien Mortgage Loan.

(b) so long as the Discharge of First Priority Obligations has not occurred, any Lien on the Collateral securing any Second Priority Obligations now or hereafter held by or on behalf of the Second Priority Agent, any Second Priority Creditors, 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 Priority Obligations. All Liens on the Collateral securing any First Priority Obligations shall be and remain senior in all respects and prior to all Liens on the Collateral securing any Second Priority Obligations for all purposes, whether or not such Liens securing any First Priority Obligations are subordinated to any Lien securing any other obligation of the Borrowers, any other Grantor or any other Person.
