2.2 Remedies with Respect to Note Priority Collateral. (a) The Bank Administrative Agent acknowledges and agrees that, until all of the Note Obligations have been paid in full, the exercise of rights and remedies in respect of the Note Priority Collateral by the Bank Administrative Agent shall be limited to the extent set forth in, and shall be governed by, this Agreement.

(b) Until the Note Obligations shall have been satisfied in full, other than to the extent expressly provided in this Agreement, no Bank Secured Party shall exercise any rights or remedies in respect of the Note Priority Collateral, whether under a Secured Debt Document, applicable law or otherwise, including, without limitation, any action to institute any judicial or nonjudicial or similar action or proceeding in respect of its Lien or to seek relief from the automatic stay pursuant to Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code in respect of its Lien; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be construed as preventing the Bank Administrative Agent or any Bank Secured Party from taking any action which is reasonably desirable or necessary to perfect and protect the Bank Second Priority Lien, which action is not adverse to the Note Secured Parties or the Note First Priority Lien, including, without limitation, the filing of financing statements tinder the Uniform Commercial Code in any applicable jurisdiction, the execution and delivery of account control agreements or similar agreements entered into for the purpose of obtaining “control” (within the meaning of the applicable Uniform Commercial Code) of any applicable Note Priority Collateral (to the extent that it is possible for both the Note Collateral Agent and the Bank Administrative Agent to have joint “control” of such item of Note Priority Collateral) and the filing of a claim or statement of interest in an Insolvency Proceeding in respect of the Bank Second Priority Lien or any Obligations secured thereby. Until the Note Obligations shall have been satisfied in full, the Note Collateral Agent shall have the exclusive right to exercise rights and remedies in respect of the Note Priority Collateral and, to enforce the provisions of and exercise remedies under this Agreement and the Note Documents and under applicable law (or refrain from enforcing any such rights and exercising any such remedies), all in such order and in such mariner as it may determine in its discretion. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding the occurrence and continuation of an event of default as defined under the Bank Financing Agreement, the Note Collateral Agent shall not have any obligation or duty to exercise remedies against the Note Priority Collateral.

(c) Each Bank Secured Party hereby consents to and authorizes the sale of all or any part of the Note Priority Collateral by the Note Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms of the Note Security Agreement and the other Note Documents and agrees that when all or any part of the Note Priority Collateral is sold pursuant to the Note Security Agreement or the applicable Note Document, and otherwise in accordance with this Agreement, following such sale, such Note Priority Collateral (but not the Proceeds thereof) shall be free of all of the Bank Second Priority Lien. The Bank Administrative Agent hereby appoints the Note Collateral Agent as its attorney-in-fact to execute and deliver in its stead any releases, termination statements or other documentation reasonably necessary or requested to evidence the foregoing release of liens on the Note Priority Collateral.

(d) No Bank Secured Party, by itself or through or with any other Person, shall (i) contest, protest, object to, interfere with, seek to enjoin or invoke or utilize any provision of any document, law or equitable principle, or otherwise take any other action whatsoever

which might prevent, delay or impede, any exercise of rights or remedies by the Note Collateral Agent under the Note Security Agreement or applicable law in respect of the Note Priority Collateral or (ii) contest the validity or enforceability of any of the Obligations or the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of any of the Liens created hereunder (it being understood and agreed that the terms of this Agreement shall govern even if part or all of the Note First Priority Lien or the Bank Second Priority Lien is avoided, disallowed, set aside or otherwise invalidated in any judicial proceeding or otherwise). The Bank Administrative Agent and the Bank Secured Parties agree that the Note Priority Collateral may be repossessed or removed by the Note Collateral Agent, subject to the terms of this Agreement.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the right of each Bank Secured Party to receive payment of the Obligations held by such Bank Secured Party when due (whether at the stated maturity thereof, by acceleration or otherwise) as expressed in the related Secured Debt Document or other instrument evidencing or agreement governing an Obligation or to institute suit for the enforcement of such payment on or after such due date, and the obligation of the Grantors to pay such Obligation when due, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Bank Secured Party given in the manner prescribed by the Secured Debt Document under which such Obligation is outstanding.

(f) The Note Secured Parties shall have the right, exercisable in their sole discretion, without notice or demand and without affecting or impairing the agreements and obligations of the Bank Secured Parties, from time to time (i) to modify, extend, amend, restate, compromise, supplement, waive or release the Note Obligations from time to time, and the aggregate amount of the Note Obligations may be renewed, replaced or refinanced, all without notice to or consent by the Bank Administrative Agent or the Bank Secured Parties; provided, however, that the principal amount of the Note Obligations may only be renewed, replaced or refinanced in an amount not to exceed the aggregate principal amount of the Notes (including any additional Notes issued pursuant to the Note Indenture) and (ii) to exercise or refrain from exercising any powers or rights conferred on the Note Secured Parties under the Note Documents. Each of the Bank Secured Parties waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any requirement that the Note Secured Parties or the Note Collateral Agent protect, secure, perfect or insure the Note First Priority Lien or exhaust any right or take any action against the Company or the Note Guarantors.

(g) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Bank Secured Party waives any claim it might have against the Note Collateral Agent and any Note Secured Party or their respective directors, officers, employees or agents with respect to, or arising out of, any action or failure to act or any error of judgment, negligence, or mistake or oversight whatsoever, except for claims arising out of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Note Collateral Agent or the Note Secured Parties or their respective directors, officers, employees or agents with respect to any exercise of rights or remedies hereunder or under any Note Document or any transaction relating to the Note Priority Collateral. None of the Note Secured Parties or the Note Collateral Agent or their respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to collect or realize upon any of the Note Priority Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Note Priority Collateral or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Note Priority Collateral or any part thereof.

(h) If, through the operation of any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or other laws or otherwise, the Note First Priority Lien is enforced with respect to less than all of the Note Obligations then outstanding and secured by the Note Security Agreement (such unenforced portion of the Note Obligations, the “Avoided Note Obligations”), the Bank Administrative Agent shall apply the Proceeds of the Note Priority Collateral so that the Note Secured Parties receive an amount with respect to the Avoided Note Obligations equal to the amount the Note Secured Parties would have received with respect thereto (as general unsecured creditors) had the Obligations secured by the Bank Second Priority Lien not been secured by the Bank Security Agreements. To the extent that Proceeds collected with respect to the Obligations held by any of the Bank Secured Parties are distributed to the Note Secured Parties in accordance with the preceding sentence and the Liens of such Bank Secured Parties in the Note Priority Collateral are discharged in whole or in part on the basis that the Obligations held by the Bank Secured Parties have been satisfied under applicable law, then, to the extent of the amount of such distribution made by such Bank Secured Parties, any collections by the Note Secured Parties in respect of its Liens on the Bank Priority Collateral pursuant to the Note Security Agreement shall, after discharge in full of the Liens of such Bank Secured Parties (to the extent that such Liens are senior to Liens of the Note Secured Parties on the Bank Priority Collateral in accordance with the terms of the applicable Secured Debt Documents) on the basis that the Obligations secured thereby have been satisfied under applicable law, be distributed to the Bank Secured Parties upon receipt thereof by the Note Secured Parties.

(i) If at any time after an event of default under the Note Documents shall have occurred and be continuing any Bank Secured Party (a “Receiving Party”) shall receive any payment or distribution on account of the Obligations owed to such Receiving Party (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any rights of set-off or otherwise, and whether in cash, property or securities) representing proceeds of any of the Note Priority Collateral and which is in excess of the payments or distributions such Receiving Party would have received through the operation of this Agreement and the Bank Security Agreements and after giving effect to the circumstances described in paragraphs (h) above and (j) below (such payments or distributions, “Excess Payments”), then such Receiving Party shall hold such Excess Payments in trust for the benefit of the Note Secured Parties, shall not commingle such Excess Payments with any other property of such Receiving Party and shall promptly pay over such Excess Payments in the form received (duly endorsed, if necessary, to the Note Collateral Agent) to the Note Collateral Agent, for distribution by the Note Collateral Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Note Security Agreement.

(j) The Bank Administrative Agent and the Bank Secured Parties acknowledge that if any payment made by a Grantor or other Person and applied to the Note Obligations is at any time annulled, avoided, set aside, rescinded, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential or otherwise required to be refunded or repaid, or the Proceeds of Note Priority Collateral are required to be returned by any Note Secured Party to such Grantor, its estate, trustee, receiver or any other Person under any Requirement of Law of any Governmental Authority, then to the extent of such payment or repayment, any Lien or other Note Priority Collateral securing such Note Obligation shall be and remain in full force and effect as fully as if such payment had never been made or, if prior thereto the Lien granted hereby or by any other Note Priority Collateral securing such Obligation hereunder shall have been released or terminated by virtue of such cancellation or surrender, such Lien or other Note Priority Collateral

shall be reinstated in full force and effect, and such prior cancellation or surrender shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect any Lien or other Note Priority Collateral securing the Obligations of any Grantor in respect of the amount of such payment.

(k) In the event that the Note Collateral Agent has “control” (within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code of any applicable jurisdiction) of any Investment Property, Letter-of-Credit Rights, Deposit Accounts or Electronic Chattel Paper included in the Note Priority Collateral or any other Note Priority Collateral for which a security interest is perfected by possession of such collateral, the Note Collateral Agent shall control such Note Priority Collateral for the benefit of the Note Secured Parties and the Bank Administrative Agent and the Bank Secured Parties. Subject to Section 4.6(b), promptly following the Stated Maturity (as defined in the Note Indenture) of the Notes, the Note Collateral Agent shall deliver or assign control of the remainder of the Collateral, if any, in its possession or under its control to the Bank Administrative Agent unless the Bank Obligations shall have been paid in full or except as may otherwise be required by applicable law or court order.

2.3 Remedies with Respect to the Bank Priority Collateral. (a) The Note Collateral Agent acknowledges and agrees that, until all of the Bank Obligations have been paid in full, the exercise of rights and remedies in respect of the Bank Priority Collateral by the Note Collateral Agent shall be limited to the extent set forth in, and shall be governed by, this Agreement.

(b) Until the Bank Obligations shall have been satisfied in full, other than to the extent expressly provided in this Agreement, no Note Secured Party shall exercise any rights or remedies in respect of the Bank Collateral, whether under a Secured Debt Document, applicable law or otherwise, including, without limitation, any action to institute any judicial or nonjudicial or similar action or proceeding in respect of its Lien or to seek relief from the automatic stay pursuant to Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code in respect of its Lien; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be construed as preventing the Note Collateral Agent or any Note Secured Party from taking any action which is reasonably desirable or necessary to perfect and protect the Note Second Priority Lien, which action is not adverse to the Bank Secured Parties or the Bank First Priority Lien, including, without limitation, the filing of financing statements under the Uniform Commercial Code in any applicable jurisdiction, the execution and delivery of account control agreements or similar agreements entered into for the purpose of obtaining “control” (within the meaning of the applicable Uniform Commercial Code) of any applicable Bank Priority Collateral (to the extent that it is possible for both the Bank Administrative Agent and the Note Collateral Agent to have joint “control” of such item of Bank Collateral) and the filing of a claim or statement of interest in an Insolvency Proceeding in respect of the Note Second Priority Lien or any Obligations secured thereby. Until the Bank Obligations shall have been satisfied in full, the Bank Administrative Agent shall have the exclusive right to exercise rights and remedies in respect of the Bank Priority Collateral and to enforce the provisions of and exercise remedies under this Agreement and the Bank Documents and under applicable law (or refrain from enforcing any such rights and exercising any such remedies), all in such order and in such manner as it may determine in its discretion. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding the occurrence and continuation of an event of default as defined under the Note Indenture, the Bank

Administrative Agent shall not have any obligation or duty to exercise remedies against the Bank Priority Collateral.

(c) Each Note Secured Party hereby consents to and authorizes the sale of all or any part of the Bank Priority Collateral by the Bank Administrative Agent or any other Bank Secured Party in accordance with the terms of the Bank Security Agreements and the other Bank Documents and agrees that when all or any part of the Bank Priority Collateral is sold pursuant to the Bank Security Agreements or the applicable Bank Document and otherwise in accordance with this Agreement, following such sale, such all Bank Priority Collateral (but not the Proceeds thereof) shall be free of the Note Second Priority Lien. The Note Collateral Agent hereby appoints the Bank Administrative Agent as its attorney-in-fact to execute and deliver in its stead any releases, termination statements or other documentation reasonably necessary or requested to evidence the foregoing release of liens on the Bank Priority Collateral.

(d) No Note Secured Party, by itself or through or with any other Person, shall (i) contest, protest, object to, interfere with, seek to enjoin or invoke or utilize any provision of any document, law or equitable principle, or otherwise take any other action whatsoever which might prevent, delay or impede, any exercise of rights or remedies by the Bank Administrative Agent or the other Bank Secured Parties under the Bank Security Agreements or applicable law in respect of the Bank Priority Collateral or (ii) contest the validity or enforceability of any of the Obligations or the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of any of the Liens created hereunder (it being understood and agreed that the terms of this Agreement shall govern even if part or all of the Bank First Priority Lien or the Note Second Priority Lien is avoided, disallowed, set aside or otherwise invalidated in any judicial proceeding or otherwise). The Note Collateral Agent and the Note Secured Parties agree that the Bank Priority Collateral may be repossessed or removed by the Bank Administrative Agent or any Bank Secured Parties, subject to the terms of this Agreement, and, to the extent that such Bank Priority Collateral is located on property that constitutes Note Priority Collateral, the Note Collateral Agent and the Note Secured Parties will provide access to the Bank Administrative Agent and the Bank Secured Parties accordingly. In addition, the Note Collateral Agent and the Note Secured Parties agree to permit the Bank Administrative Agent and/or the Bank Secured Parties to access and use all or any part of the Note Priority Collateral as may be reasonably necessary to enable the Bank Administrative Agent and/or the Bank Secured Parties during normal business hours to convert the Grantors’ raw materials and work-in-process Inventory into saleable finished goods product, subject to the rights of the Note Collateral Agent and the Note Secured Parties to repossess and remove the Note Priority Collateral as provided in Section 2.2(d) above.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the right of each Note Secured Party to receive payment of the Obligations held by such Note Secured Party when due (whether at the stated maturity thereof, by acceleration or otherwise) as expressed in the related Secured Debt Document or other instrument evidencing or agreement governing an Obligation’ or to institute suit for the enforcement of such payment on or after such due date, and the obligation of the Grantors to pay such Obligation when due, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Note Secured Party given in the manner prescribed by the Secured Debt Document under which such Obligation is outstanding.

(f) The Bank Secured Parties shall have the right, exercisable in their sole discretion, without notice or demand without affecting or impairing the agreements and obligations of the Note Secured Parties, from time to time (i) to modify, extend, amend, restate, compromise, supplement, waive or release the Bank Obligations from time to time, and the aggregate amount of the Bank Obligations may be renewed, replaced or refinanced, all without notice to or consent by the Note Collateral Agent or the Note Secured Parties; provided, however, that the principal amount of the Bank Obligations may only be renewed, replaced or refinanced in an amount not to exceed the greater of (x) the Borrowing Base and (y) $60.0 million and (ii) to exercise or refrain from exercising any powers or rights conferred on the Bank Secured Parties under the Bank Documents. Each of the Note Secured Parties waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any requirement that the Bank Secured Parties or the Bank Administrative Agent protect, secure, perfect or insure the Bank First Priority Lien or exhaust any right or take any action against the Borrowers or the Bank Guarantors.

(g) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Note Secured Party waives any claim it might have against the Bank Administrative Agent and any Bank Secured Party or their respective directors, officers, employees or agents with respect to, or arising out of, any action or failure to act or any error of judgment, negligence, or mistake or oversight whatsoever, except for claims arising out of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Bank Administrative Agent or the Bank Secured Parties or their respective directors, officers, employees or agents with respect to any exercise of rights or remedies hereunder or under any Bank Document or any transaction relating to the Bank Collateral. None of the Bank Secured Parties or the Bank Administrative Agent or their respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to collect or realize upon any of the Bank Priority Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Bank Priority Collateral or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Bank Priority Collateral or any part thereof.

(h) If, through the operation of any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or other laws or otherwise, the Bank First Priority Lien is enforced with respect to less than all of the Bank Obligations then outstanding and secured by each Bank Security Agreement (such unenforced portion of the Bank Obligations, the “Avoided Bank Obligations”), the Note Collateral Agent shall apply the Proceeds of the Bank Priority Collateral so that the Bank Secured Parties receive an amount with respect to the Avoided Bank Obligations equal to the amount the Bank Secured Parties would have received with respect thereto (as general unsecured creditors) had the Obligations secured by the Note Second Priority Lien not been secured by the Note Security Agreement. To the extent that Proceeds collected with respect to the Obligations held by any of the Note Secured Parties are distributed to the Bank Secured Parties in accordance with the preceding sentence and the Liens of such Note Secured Parties in the Bank Priority Collateral are discharged in whole or in part on the basis that the Obligations held by the Note Secured Parties have been satisfied under applicable law, then, to the extent of the amount of such distribution made by such Note Secured Parties, any collections by the Bank Secured Parties in respect of its Liens on the Note Priority Collateral pursuant to the Bank Security Agreements shall, after discharge in full of the Liens of such Note Secured Parties (to the extent that such Liens are senior to Liens of the Bank Secured Parties on the Note Priority Collateral in accordance with the terms of the applicable Secured Debt Documents) on the basis that the

Obligations secured thereby have been satisfied under applicable law, be distributed to the Note Secured Parties upon receipt thereof by the Bank Secured Parties.

(i) If at any time after an event of default under the Bank Documents shall have occurred and be continuing any Note Secured Party (a “Receiving Party”) shall receive any payment or distribution on account of the Obligations owed to such Receiving Party (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any rights of set-off or otherwise, and whether in cash, property or securities) representing proceeds of any of the Bank Priority Collateral and which is in excess of the payments or distributions such Receiving Party would have received through the operation of this Agreement and the Note Security Agreement and after giving effect to the circumstances described in paragraphs (h) above and (j) below (such payments or distributions, “Excess Payments”), then such Receiving Party shall hold such Excess Payments in trust for the benefit of the Bank Secured Parties, shall not commingle such Excess Payments with any other property of such Receiving Party and shall promptly pay over such Excess Payments in the form received (duly endorsed, if necessary, to the Bank Administrative Agent) to the Bank Administrative Agent, for distribution by the Bank Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Bank Security Agreements.

(j) The Note Collateral Agent and the Note Secured Parties acknowledge that if any payment made by a Grantor or other Person and applied to the Bank Obligations is at any time annulled, avoided, set aside, rescinded, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential or otherwise required to be refunded or repaid, or the Proceeds of Bank Priority Collateral are required to be returned by any Bank Secured Party to such Grantor, its estate, trustee, receiver or any other Person under any Requirement of Law of any Governmental Authority, then to the extent of such payment or repayment, any Lien or other Bank Priority Collateral securing such Bank Obligation shall be and remain in full force and effect as fully as if such payment had never been made or, if prior thereto the Lien granted hereby or by any other Bank Priority Collateral securing such Obligation hereunder shall have been released or terminated by virtue of such cancellation or surrender, such Lien or other Bank Priority Collateral shall be reinstated in fall force and effect, and such prior cancellation or surrender shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect any Lien or other Bank Priority Collateral securing the Obligations of any Grantor in respect of the amount of such payment.

(k) In the event that the Bank Administrative Agent has “control” (within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code of any applicable jurisdiction) of any Investment Property, Letter-of-Credit Rights, Deposit Accounts or Electronic Chattel Paper included in the Bank Priority Collateral or any other Bank Priority Collateral for which a security interest is perfected by possession of such collateral, the Bank Administrative Agent shall control such Bank Priority Collateral for the benefit of the Bank Secured Parties and the Note Collateral Agent and the Note Secured Parties. Subject to Section 4.6(b), promptly following the payment in full of the Bank Obligations, each of the Bank Administrative Agent and the Bank Secured Parties shall deliver or assign control of the remainder of the Collateral, if any, in its possession or under its control to the Note Collateral Agent unless the Stated Maturity (as defined in the Note Indenture) of the Notes shall have occurred or except as may otherwise be required by applicable law or court order.

2.4 Relative Rights of Parties. This Agreement is intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Note Collateral Agent and the Note Secured Parties, on the one hand, and the Bank Administrative Agent and the Bank Secured Parties, on the other hand, in respect of (i) the subordination of the Bank Second Priority Lien to the Note First Priority Lien and (ii) the subordination of the Note Second Priority Lien to the Bank First Priority Lien. No other Person or entity shall have any right, benefit or other interest under this Agreement. Nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to affect or limit, in any way whatsoever, the Liens and other rights that the Note Secured Parties and the Bank Secured Parties have under the Note Security Agreement, the Bank Security Agreements and the other Secured Debt Documents to which they are a party insofar as the rights of the Company, any other Grantor or any other Person or entity are involved.
