Each party

hereto, for itself and on behalf of the relevant Secured Creditors hereby agrees not to assert a claim against a Collateral Agent on any agency theory or any other theory of liability for breach of fiduciary duty, all of which claims each party hereto, on behalf of each Secured Creditor, hereby waives.

This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the Secured Creditors and their respective successors and assigns regardless of whether such successors or assigns are signatories hereto.

No waiver shall be deemed to be made by either Collateral Agent of their respective rights hereunder, unless the same shall be in writing signed by such Collateral Agent (acting in accordance with this Section 21), and each waiver, if any, shall be a waiver only with respect to the specific instance involved and shall in no way impair the rights of such Collateral Agent, in any other respect at any other time.

Section 22. Miscellaneous. This Agreement is solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights and priorities of the parties hereto and that of the Secured Creditors and their respective successors and assigns with respect to the Collateral, and no other Person shall have any right, benefit, priority or interest under, or because of the existence of, this Agreement. It is expressly acknowledged and agreed that the Bank and Note Collateral Agent may be referred to in one or more Security Documents by other defined terms, including, without limitation, the “Collateral Agent” or “Security Trustee”. No such use of such different terminology is intended to affect the enforcement of this Agreement or any other Security

Document. This Agreement shall not inure to the benefit of the Borrower nor to any Subsidiary of the Borrower, nor to their respective successors and assigns. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that they shall not challenge or question in any proceeding the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of this Agreement, as a whole, or any term or provision contained herein.
