Subordinated Indebtedness at any time and any Guarantor shall promptly execute
and deliver a counterpart of this Subordination Agreement to each other party

2.2 Subordinated Indebtedness Subordination Provisions. To
induce Senior Lenders to enter into the Credit Agreement and to make and
continue to make from time to time loans and advances thereunder,
notwithstanding any other provision of the Subordinated Indebtedness or the
Subordinated Lending Agreements to the contrary, any Distribution with respect
to the Subordinated Indebtedness is and shall be expressly junior and
subordinated in right of payment to all amounts due and owing upon all Senior
Indebtedness from time to time. Specifically, but not by way of limitation:
(a) Payments. Neither the Company nor any other
Obligor shall make any Distribution on the Subordinated Indebtedness until such
time as the Senior Indebtedness shall have been irrevocably paid in full in cash
and the Credit Agreement and any letters of credit issued pursuant thereto shall
have been irrevocably terminated.
(b) Limitation on Acceleration. No Holder of
Subordinated Indebtedness shall be entitled to accelerate the maturity of the
Subordinated Indebtedness, exercise any remedies with respect to the
Subordinated Indebtedness, commence or join with any other creditors in
commencing any bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership or insolvency proceeding
against the Company or any Obligor or commence any other action or proceeding to
recover any amounts due or to become due with respect to Subordinated
Indebtedness until such time as the Senior Indebtedness shall have been
irrevocably paid in full in cash and the Credit Agreement and any letters of
credit issued pursuant thereto shall have been irrevocably terminated.
(c) Prior Payment of Senior Indebtedness in
Bankruptcy, Etc. In the event of any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings
relative to the Company or any other Obligor or any of their respective
property, or any receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar
proceedings in connection therewith, or, in the event of any proceedings for
voluntary liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of the Company or any
other Obligor or distribution or marshaling of its assets or any composition
with creditors of the Company or any other Obligor, whether or not involving
insolvency or bankruptcy, or if the Company or any other Obligor shall cease its
operations, call a meeting of its creditors or no longer do business as a going
concern (each individually or collectively, an "Insolvency Event") then all
Senior Indebtedness shall be paid in full in cash and the Credit Agreement
irrevocably terminated before any Distribution shall be made on account of any
Subordinated Indebtedness, provided, however, that Holders of Subordinated
Indebtedness may receive (and shall be entitled to retain) securities which are
subordinate to (at least to the extent that the Subordinated Indebtedness is
subordinate to the Senior Indebtedness pursuant to the terms hereof) the payment
of all Senior Indebtedness. Any such Distribution which would, but for the
provisions hereof, be payable or deliverable in respect of the Subordinated
Indebtedness, shall be paid or delivered directly to the Senior Lenders or their
representatives, in the proportions in which they hold the same, until all
amounts owing upon the Senior Indebtedness shall have been irrevocably paid in
full in cash and the Credit Agreement and any letters of credit issued pursuant
thereto have been irrevocably terminated.
(d) Power of Attorney. To enable the Senior Lenders
to assert and enforce its rights hereunder in any proceeding referred to in
Section 2.2(c) or upon the happening of any Insolvency Event, the Agent or any
other Person whom the Senior Lenders may designate is hereby irrevocably
3
appointed attorney in fact for such Holder of Subordinated Indebtedness with
full power to act in the place and stead of such Holder of Subordinated
Indebtedness including the right to make, present, file and vote such proofs of
claim against the Company or any other Obligor on account of all or any part of
the Subordinated Indebtedness as Agent may deem advisable and to receive and
collect any and all dividends or other payments made thereon and to apply the
same on account of the Senior Indebtedness but excluding the right to exercise
voting or approvals rights. The Subordinated Lenders will execute and deliver to
the Senior Lenders such instruments as may be required by the Senior Lenders to
enforce any and all Subordinated Indebtedness, to effectuate the aforesaid power
of attorney and to effect collection of any and all dividends or other payments
which may be made at any time on account thereof.
(e) Payments Held In Trust. Should any Distribution
or the proceeds thereof, in respect of the Subordinated Indebtedness, be
collected or received by any Holder of Subordinated Indebtedness or any
Affiliate of any such holder at a time when the Holders of Subordinated
Indebtedness are not permitted, pursuant to the terms hereof, to receive any
such Distribution or proceeds thereof, then each Holder of Subordinated
Indebtedness will forthwith deliver, or cause to be delivered, the same to the
Senior Lenders in precisely the form held by such Holder of Subordinated
Indebtedness (plus any necessary endorsements) and, until so delivered, the same
shall be held in trust by each Holder of Subordinated Indebtedness, or any such
Affiliate, as the property of the Senior Lenders and shall not be commingled
with other property of such Holder of Subordinated Indebtedness or any such
Affiliate.
(f) Subrogation. Subject to the prior payment in
full in cash of the Senior Indebtedness and the irrevocable termination of the
Credit Agreement and all Letters of Credit issued pursuant thereto, to the
extent that Senior Lenders have received any Distribution on the Senior
Indebtedness which, but for this Agreement, would have been applied to the
Subordinated Indebtedness, the Subordinated Lenders shall be subrogated to the
then or thereafter rights of the Senior Lenders including, without limitation,
the right to receive any Distribution made on the Senior Indebtedness until the
principal of, interest on and other charges due under the Subordinated
Indebtedness shall be paid in full; and, for the purposes of such subrogation,
no Distribution to the Senior Lenders to which the Subordinated Lenders would be
entitled except for the provisions of this Agreement, and no delivery to the
Senior Lenders by the Subordinated Lenders pursuant to Section 2.2(g) hereof,
shall, as between the Company, its creditors (other than the Senior Lenders) and
the Subordinated Lender, be deemed to be a Distribution by the Company to or on
account of Senior Indebtedness, it being understood that the provisions hereof
are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of
the Subordinated Lenders on the one hand, and the Senior Lenders on the other
hand.
2.3 Liens. The Company, the other Obligors and the
Subordinated Lenders acknowledge, agree and represent and warrant to the Senior
Lenders that there are not and will not be any Liens on or with respect to any
assets of the Company, any Guarantor or any other Obligor at any time to secure
all or any part of the Subordinated Indebtedness and any such Lien shall be null
and void.
3. Miscellaneous.
3.1 Scope of Subordination; Reliance. The provisions
of this Agreement are solely to define the relative rights of the Holders of
Subordinated Indebtedness and the Senior Lenders. Nothing in this Agreement
shall impair, as between the Company and the Holders of Subordinated
Indebtedness, the unconditional and absolute obligation of the Company to
punctually pay the principal, interest and any other amounts and obligations
owing under the Subordinated Lending Agreements in accordance with the terms
thereof, subject to the rights of the Senior Lenders under this Agreement. The
Subordinated Lenders acknowledge and agree that this Agreement is, and is
intended to be, an inducement and a consideration to the Senior Lenders for
entering into the Senior Lending Agreements and lending and continuing to hold
any Senior Indebtedness, whether such Senior Indebtedness was created or
acquired before or after the issuance of the Subordinated Indebtedness, to
acquire and continue to hold such Senior Indebtedness, and the Senior Lending
Agreements were initially entered into in reliance on the Subordinated Lender's
agreement to execute this Agreement. The Senior Lenders shall be deemed
conclusively to have relied on such subordination provisions in acquiring and
continuing to hold the Senior Indebtedness.
3.2 Provisions of Subordinated Lending Agreements.
From and after the date hereof, the Company, each other Obligor and the
Subordinated Lenders shall cause each Subordinated Lending Agreement to contain
a provision to the following effect:
"This [describe agreement/instrument] is subject to the
Subordination Agreement, dated as of December 31, 1999, among the
Company, the Holders of Subordinated Indebtedness (as defined
therein) and Bank One, Michigan, as agent for the Senior Lenders,
under which this [describe agreement/instrument] and the
[Obligor's] obligations hereunder and other rights of the Holder
are subordinated in the manner set forth therein to the prior
payment of obligations to the holders of Senior Indebtedness as
defined therein and all collateral security therefor."
Proof of compliance with the foregoing shall be promptly given to Senior
Lenders.
4
3.3 Survival of Rights. The right of Senior Lenders to
enforce the provisions of this Agreement shall not be prejudiced or impaired by
any act or omitted act of any Senior Lender, the Company, any Guarantor or any
other Person, including forbearance, waiver, consent, compromise, amendment,
extension, renewal, or taking or release of security in respect of any Senior
Indebtedness or noncompliance by the Company, any Guarantor or any other Person
with such provisions, regardless of the actual or imputed knowledge of Senior
Lenders. In the event that the Senior Indebtedness is refinanced in full, each
Holder of Subordinated Indebtedness agrees at the request of such refinancing
party to enter into a subordination agreement on terms substantially the same as
this Subordination Agreement.
3.4 Amendments to Senior Lending Agreements. Nothing
contained in this Agreement, or in any other agreement or instrument binding
upon any of the parties hereto, shall in any manner limit or restrict the
ability of the Senior Lenders from increasing or changing the terms of the
Obligations under the Senior Lending Agreements, or to otherwise waive, amend or
modify the terms and conditions of the Senior Lending Agreements, in such manner
as the Senior Lenders and the Company shall mutually determine. Each Holder of
Subordinated Indebtedness hereby consents to any and all such waivers,
amendments, modifications and compromises, and any other renewals, extensions,
indulgences, releases of collateral or other accommodations granted by the
Senior Lenders to the Company or any other Obligor from time to time, and agrees
that none of such actions shall in any manner affect or impair the subordination
established by this Subordination Agreement in respect of the Subordinated
Indebtedness. Without limiting the foregoing, and without notice to or the
consent of the Subordinated Lender, the Senior Lenders may, at any time and from
time to time and without impairing or releasing the subordination herein made,
do any one or more of the following: (a) change the manner, place or terms of
payment, or change or extend the time of payment of the Senior Indebtedness, or
amend or supplement in any manner the documentation evidencing, securing or
relating to the Senior Indebtedness, or increase without limit the amount of the
Senior Indebtedness; (b) release any person liable in any manner for the payment
or collection of the Senior Indebtedness; (c) exercise or refrain from
exercising any rights with respect to the Senior Indebtedness against the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries, any Guarantor or any other person; (d) apply
any monies or other property paid by any person or otherwise available to the
Senior Indebtedness; (e) accept or release, or fail to perfect an interest in,
any collateral or security for the Senior Indebtedness; or (f) take or omit to
take any other action with respect to the Senior Indebtedness which may impair
or adversely affect the subordination herein made.
3.5 Notices. Any notice or other communication required or
permitted pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed given (a) when personally
delivered to any officer of the party to whom it is addressed, (b) on the
earlier of actual receipt thereof or three (3) days following posting thereof by
