Schedule 6.10 TAXES
1. Staff Care, Inc. is subject of an assessment by the California Employment
Development Department (“EDD”) with respect to the payment of certain payroll related taxes in connection with locum tenens and allied providers, for the period between April 1, 2001 and June 30, 2007. Staff Care, Inc. has appealed the EDD’s assessment as does not believe the assessment has merit. However, on September 5, 2008, Staff Care, Inc. made a payment to the EDD in the amount of $2.3 million to cease the accrual of interest while the appeal is pending. Of the $2.3 million payment, $1.8 million was related to periods prior to the acquisition of MHA Group, Inc. (“MHA”), which included Staff Care, Inc., in November 2005 and $0.5 million was related to the post-acquisition period. As part of the acquisition agreement of MHA, the MHA selling shareholders indemnified with respect to the $1.8 million related to the pre-acquisition period. On August 31, 2009, a settlement agreement with the MHA selling shareholders was entered into to release such shareholders from any further liability under the assessment in exchange for their release of claim to an additional $1.5 million in the holdback reserve. As a result of this settlement, a benefit to pre-tax income in the third quarter of 2009 of $1.5 million we recorded, but Staff Care, Inc. will be liable for any future costs related to the EDD assessments. There is potential exposure subsequent to the assessment period, but Staff Care, Inc. believes the exposure to be immaterial to the consolidated financial statements.
2.
The Acquired Company has identified a potential error in the preparation of income tax returns for the periods ended 12/30/07 and 12/28/08 related to the amortization of Section 197 intangibles. However, because of the Acquired Company’s net tax loss carryforward position, no additional tax liability is expected to result.

2.2 Failure to Perfect. All Liens on the Collateral securing any First Lien Obligations shall be and remain senior in all respects and prior to all Liens on the Collateral securing any Second Lien Obligations for all purposes, notwithstanding any failure of the First Lien Administrative Agent or the First Lien Claimholders to adequately perfect its security interests in the Collateral, the subordination of any Lien on the Collateral securing any First Lien Obligations to any Lien securing any other obligation of any Grantor, or the avoidance, invalidation or lapse of any Lien on the Collateral securing any First Lien Obligations.

(b) that the documents and agreements creating or evidencing the First Lien Collateral and the Second Lien Collateral and guarantees for the First Lien Obligations and the Second Lien Obligations shall be in all material respects the same forms of documents other than with respect to the senior and subordinate nature of the security interests in the Collateral securing the respective Obligations thereunder.

In exercising rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral, the First Lien Administrative Agent and the First Lien Claimholders may enforce the provisions of the First Lien Loan Documents and exercise remedies thereunder, all in such order and in such manner as they may determine in the exercise of their sole discretion.

Except as otherwise set forth in Section 2.1 and Section 4, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by the Second Lien Administrative Agent or any Second Lien Claimholders of the required payments of interest and principal so long as such receipt is not the direct or indirect result of the exercise by the Second Lien Administrative Agent or any Second Lien Claimholders of rights or remedies as a secured creditor (including set-off or recoupment) or enforcement of any Lien held by any of them. Nothing in this Agreement impairs or otherwise adversely affects any rights or remedies the First Lien Administrative Agent or the First Lien Claimholders may have with respect to the Collateral. In the event that any Second Lien Claimholder becomes a judgment Lien creditor as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor, such judgment Lien shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement for all purposes to the same extent as all other Liens securing the Second Lien Obligations subject to this Agreement.

The First Lien Administrative Agent and the Second Lien Administrative Agent hereby also acknowledge and agree that the Control Agent will obtain landlord lien waivers as contemplated by the First Lien Collateral Documents and the Second Lien Collateral Documents for the benefit of (i) the First Lien Administrative Agent for the benefit of the First Lien Claimholders and (ii) the Second Lien Administrative Agent for the benefit of Second Lien Claimholders.

The Grantors hereby jointly and severally agree to pay, reimburse, indemnify and hold harmless the Control Agent to the same extent and on the same terms that the Grantors are required to do so for the First Lien Administrative Agent in accordance with the First Lien Credit Agreement as in effect on the date hereof. The First Lien Claimholders and the Second Lien Claimholders hereby jointly and severally agree to pay, reimburse, indemnify and hold harmless the Control Agent to the same extent and on the same terms that the First Lien Claimholders are required to do so for the First Lien Administrative Agent in accordance with the First Lien Credit Agreement and the Second Lien Claimholders are required to do so for the Second Lien Administrative Agent in accordance with the Second Lien Credit Agreement.
(c) The provisions of Section 10 of the First Lien Credit Agreement and Section 10 of the Second Lien Credit Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the Control Agent (as if the Control Agent were the agent named therein) in respect of this Agreement, the First Lien Collateral Documents and the Second Lien Collateral Documents and shall be binding upon all Grantors, all First Lien Claimholders and all Second Lien Claimholders and upon the parties hereto in such respect.

The Control Agent shall not have a duty to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms of this Agreement, and First Lien Collateral Document or any Second Lien Collateral Document by any Grantor. This Agreement shall not subject the Control Agent to any obligation or liability except as expressly set forth herein. In particular, the Control Agent shall have no duty to investigate whether the obligations of any Grantor to the First Lien Administrative Agent or the Second Lien Administrative Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder or Second Lien Claimholder are in default or whether the First Lien Administrative Agent or the Second Lien Administrative Agent is entitled under the First Lien Collateral Documents or the Second Lien Collateral Documents, as applicable, or otherwise to give any instructions or notice of exclusive control. The Control Agent is fully entitled to rely upon such instructions as it believes in good faith to have originated from the First Lien Administrative Agent or the Second Lien Administrative Agent, as applicable.
(iii) Except as set forth in clause (iv) below, the Control Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to the First Lien Administrative Agent, the Second Lien Administrative Agent, any First Lien Claimholder or any Second Lien Claimholder including, without limitation, any obligation to assure that the Control Collateral is owned by any Grantor or one of their respective Subsidiaries or to preserve rights or benefits of any Person except as expressly set forth in this Section 5.5.

(f) Upon the Discharge of First Lien Obligations (other than in connection with a Refinancing of the First Lien Obligations), the Control Agent shall deliver the Control Collateral together with the necessary endorsements to either (i) the Second Lien Administrative Agent (or otherwise allow the Second Lien Administrative Agent to obtain control of such Control Collateral) and the Second Lien Administrative Agent shall accept and succeed to the role of the Control Agent as the agent for perfection on the Control Collateral or (ii) as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

5.6 When Discharge of First Lien Obligations Deemed to Not Have Occurred. If in connection with the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, the Company enters into any Refinancing of any First Lien Loan Document evidencing a First Lien Obligation which Refinancing is permitted hereby and by the terms of the Second Lien Loan Documents, then such Discharge of First Lien Obligations shall automatically be deemed not to have occurred for all purposes of this Agreement (other than with respect to any actions taken prior to the date of such designation as a result of the occurrence of such first Discharge of First Lien Obligations), and the obligations under such Refinancing (and related documents) shall automatically be treated as First Lien Obligations for all purposes of this Agreement, including for
CHARl\1175377v2
25
purposes of the Lien priorities and rights in respect of Collateral set forth herein, and the First Lien Administrative Agent under such First Lien Loan Documents shall be a First Lien Administrative Agent for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon receipt of a notice stating that the Company has entered into a new First Lien Loan Document (which notice shall include the identity of the new collateral agent, such agent, the “New Agent”), the Second Lien Administrative Agent shall promptly enter into such documents and agreements (including amendments or supplements to this Agreement) as the Company or such New Agent shall reasonably request in order to provide to the New Agent the rights contemplated hereby, in each case consistent in all material respects with the terms of this Agreement. If the new First Lien Obligations under the new First Lien Loan Documents are secured by assets of the Grantors of the type constituting Collateral that do not also secure the Second Lien Obligations, then the Second Lien Obligations shall be secured at such time by a second priority Lien on such assets to the same extent provided in the Second Lien Collateral Documents provided, however, notwithstanding the above, that the refusal of the Second Lien Administrative Agent or the Second Lien Claimholders to accept a Lien on any assets of any Grantor shall not prohibit the taking of a Lien on such assets by the First Lien Administrative Agent or the First Lien Claimholders.
5.7 Option to Purchase First Lien Debt, (a) Without prejudice to the enforcement of remedies by the First Lien Claimholders, any Person or Persons (in each case who must meet all eligibility standards contained in all relevant First Lien Loan Documents (not to be more restrictive than those in effect on the date hereof) at any time or from time to time designated by the holders of more than 50% in aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Second Lien Obligations as being entitled to exercise all default purchase options as to the Second Lien Obligations then outstanding (an “Eligible Purchaser”) shall have the right to purchase by way of assignment (and shall thereby also assume all commitments and duties of the First Lien Claimholders), at any time during the exercise period described in clause (c) below of this Section 5.7, all, but not less than all, of the First Lien Obligations (other than the First Lien Obligations of a Defaulting Creditor), including all principal of and accrued and unpaid interest and fees on and all prepayment or acceleration penalties and premiums in respect of all First Lien Obligations outstanding at the time of purchase. Upon receipt of a notice in accordance with Section 5.7(b) from an Eligible Purchaser, the First Lien Claimholders shall have no further obligation under this Section 5.7 to sell the First Lien Obligations to any other Eligible Purchaser thereafter providing notice under Section 5.7(b). Any purchase pursuant to this Section 5.7(a) shall be made as follows:
(1) for (x) a purchase price equal to the sum of (A) in the case of all loans, advances or other similar extensions of credit that constitute First Lien Obligations (including unreimbursed amounts drawn in respect of letters of credit, but excluding the undrawn amount of then outstanding letters of credit), 100% of the principal amount thereof and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the date of purchase (including any acceleration prepayment penalties or premiums), (B) in the case of any Hedge Agreement constituting a First Lien Loan Document, the net aggregate amount then owing to each Hedge Agreement Provider thereunder pursuant to the terms of the respective Hedge Agreement, including without limitation all amounts owing to such Hedge Agreement Provider as a result of the termination (or early termination) thereof (C) in the case of any Designated Cash Management Agreement constituting a First Lien Loan Document, the net aggregate amount then owing to each Cash Management Creditor thereunder pursuant to the terms of the respective Designated Cash Management Agreement, including without limitation all amounts owing to such Cash Management Creditor as a result of the termination (or early termination) thereof, plus (D) all accrued and unpaid fees, expenses, indemnities and other amounts through the date of purchase; and (y) an obligation on the part of the respective Eligible Purchasers (which shall be expressly provided in the assignment documentation described below) to reimburse each issuing lender (or any First Lien Claimholder required to pay same) for all amounts thereafter drawn with respect to any letters of credit constituting First Lien Obligations which remain outstanding after the date of any purchase
CHARl\1175377v2
26
pursuant to this Section 5.7, together with all facing fees and other amounts which may at any future time be owing to the respective issuing lender with respect to such letters of credit;
(2) with the purchase price described in preceding clause (a)(l)(x) payable in cash on the date of purchase against transfer to the respective Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers (without recourse and without any representation or warranty whatsoever, whether as to the enforceability of any First Lien Obligation or the validity, enforceability, perfection, priority or sufficiency of any Lien securing, or guarantee or other supporting obligation for, any First Lien Obligation or as to any other matter whatsoever, except the representation and warranty that the transferor owns free and clear of all Liens and encumbrances (other than participation interests not prohibited by the First Lien Credit Agreement, in which case the purchase price described in preceding clause (a)(l)(x) shall be appropriately adjusted so that the Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers do not pay amounts represented by any participation interest which remains in effect), and has the right to convey, whatever claims and interests it may have in respect of the First Lien Obligations); provided that the purchase price in respect of any outstanding letter of credit that remains undrawn on the date of purchase shall be payable in cash as and when such letter of credit is drawn upon (i) first, from the cash collateral account described in clause (a)(3) below, until the amounts contained therein have been exhausted, and (ii) thereafter, directly by the respective Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers;
(3) with such purchase accompanied by a deposit of cash collateral under the sole dominion and control of the First Lien Administrative Agent or its designee in an amount equal to 105% of the sum of the aggregate undrawn amount of all then outstanding letters of credit pursuant to the First Lien Loan Documents and the aggregate facing and similar fees which will accrue thereon through the stated maturity of the letters of credit (assuming no drawings thereon before stated maturity), as security for the respective Eligible Purchaser’s or Eligible Purchasers’ obligation to pay amounts as provided in preceding clause (a)(l)(v), it being understood and agreed that (x) at the time any facing or similar fees are owing to an issuer with respect to any letter of credit, the First Lien Administrative Agent may apply amounts deposited with it as described above to pay same and (y) upon any drawing under any letter of credit, the First Lien Administrative Agent shall apply amounts deposited with it as described above to repay the respective unpaid drawing and any customary fees charged by the issuer in connection with such draws. After giving effect to any payment made as described above in this clause (3), those amounts (if any) then on deposit with the First Lien Administrative Agent as described in this clause (3) which exceed 105% of the sum of the aggregate undrawn amount of all then outstanding letters of credit and the aggregate facing and similar fees (to the respective issuers) which will accrue thereon through the stated maturity of the then outstanding letters of credit (assuming no drawings thereon before stated maturity), shall be returned to the respective Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers (as their interests appear). Furthermore, at such time as all letters of credit have been cancelled, expired or been fully drawn, as the case may be, and after all applications described above have been made, any excess cash collateral deposited as described above in this clause (3) (and not previously applied or released as provided above) shall be returned to the respective Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers, as their interests appear;
(4) with the purchase price described in preceding clause (a)(l)(x) accompanied by a waiver by the Second Lien Administrative Agent (on behalf of itself and the other Second Lien Claimholders) of all claims arising out of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby as a result of exercising the purchase option contemplated by this Section 5.7;
CHARl\1175377v2
27
(5) with all amounts payable to the various First Lien Claimholders in respect of the assignments described above to be distributed to them by the First Lien Administrative Agent in accordance with their respective holdings of the various First Lien Obligations; and
(6) with such purchase to be made pursuant to assignment documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to, and prepared by counsel for, the First Lien Administrative Agent (with the cost of such counsel to be paid by the respective Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers); it being understood and agreed that the First Lien Administrative Agent and each other First Lien Claimholder shall retain all rights to indemnification as provided in the relevant First Lien Loan Documents for all periods prior to any assignment by them pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.7. The relevant assignment documentation shall also provide that, if for any reason (other than the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the First Lien Administrative Agent), the amount of cash collateral held by the First Lien Administrative Agent or its designee pursuant to preceding clause (a)(3) is at any time less than the full amounts owing with respect to any letter of credit described above (including facing and similar fees) then the respective Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers shall promptly reimburse the First Lien Administrative Agent (who shall pay the respective issuing bank) the amount of deficiency.
(b) The right to exercise the purchase option described in Section 5.7(a) above shall be exercisable and legally enforceable upon at least seven Business Days’ prior written notice of exercise (which notice, once given, shall be irrevocable and fully binding on the respective Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers) given to the First Lien Administrative Agent by an Eligible Purchaser. Neither the First Lien Administrative Agent nor any other First Lien Claimholder shall have any disclosure obligation to any Eligible Purchaser, the Second Lien Administrative Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder in connection with any exercise of such purchase option.
(c) The right to purchase the First Lien Obligations as described in this Section 5.7 may be exercised (by giving the irrevocable written notice described in preceding clause (b)) during each of the periods that (1) begins on the date occurring three (3) Business Days after the first to occur of (x) the date of the acceleration of the final maturity of the loans under the First Lien Credit Agreement, (y) the occurrence of the final maturity of the loans under the First Lien Credit Agreement or (z) the occurrence of an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding with respect to the Company or any Grantor that constitutes an event of default under the First Lien Credit Agreement (in the case of preceding clauses (x) and (y), so long as the acceleration or failure to pay amounts due at final maturity has not been rescinded or cured, as the case may be, within such three (3) Business Day Period, and so long as any unpaid amounts constituting First Lien Obligations remain owing) and (2) ends on the 60th day after the start of the applicable period described above.
(d) The obligations of the First Lien Claimholders to sell their respective First Lien Obligations under this Section 5.7 are several and not joint and several. To the extent any First Lien Claimholder (a “Defaulting Creditor”) breaches its obligation to sell its First Lien Obligations under this Section 5.7, nothing in this Section 5.7 shall be deemed to require the First Lien Administrative Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder to purchase such Defaulting Creditor’s First Lien Obligations for resale to the holders of Second Lien Obligations and in all cases, the First Lien Administrative Agent and each First Lien Claimholder complying with the terms of this Section 5.7 shall not be deemed to be in default of this Agreement or otherwise be deemed liable for any action or inaction of any Defaulting Creditor; provided that nothing in this clause (d) shall require any Eligible Purchaser to purchase less than all of the First Lien Obligations.
CHARl\1175377v2
28
(e) Each Grantor irrevocably consents to any assignment effected to one or more Eligible Purchasers pursuant to this Section 5.7 for purposes of all First Lien Loan Documents and hereby agrees that no further consent from such Grantor shall be required.
SECTION 6 Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings.
6.1 Use of Cash Collateral and Financing Issues. Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, if Company or any other Grantor shall be subject to any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and the First Lien Administrative Agent shall desire to permit the use of cash collateral on which the First Lien Administrative Agent or any other creditor has a Lien or to permit Company or any other Grantor to obtain financing, from one of more of the First Lien Claimholders or any other Person approved by the First Lien Administrative Agent under Section 363 or Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar Bankruptcy Law (each, a “DIP Financing”), then, so long as the maximum principal amount of Indebtedness that may be outstanding from time to time in connection with such DIP Financing, together with the principal amount of First Lien Obligations (but excluding Hedging Obligations and Obligations in respect of Designated Cash Management Agreements) outstanding at such time (after giving effect to the application of the proceeds of any DIP Financing to refinance all or any portion of the First Lien Obligations) shall not exceed the Maximum First Lien Indebtedness Amount then the Second Lien Administrative Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders, (A) agrees that it will raise no objection to, or otherwise contest or interfere with, such use of cash collateral or DIP Financing on the grounds of adequate protection or otherwise nor support any other Person objecting to, or otherwise contest or interfere with, such sale, use, or lease of cash collateral or DIP Financing and will not request any form of adequate protection or any other relief in connection therewith (except as agreed by the First Lien Administrative Agent or to the extent expressly permitted by Section 6.4) and, to the extent the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations are subordinated to or pari passu with such DIP Financing, the Second Lien Administrative Agent will subordinate its Liens in the Collateral to (x) the Liens securing such DIP Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto), (y) any adequate protection Liens provided to the First Lien Claimholders and (z) any “carve-out” for professional and United States Trustee fees agreed to by the First Lien Administrative Agent; and (B) agrees that notice received two (2) calendar days prior to the entry of an order approving such usage of cash collateral or approving such DIP Financing shall be adequate notice provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit the Second Lien Administrative Agent or the Second Lien Claimholders from objecting solely to any provisions in any DIP Financing relating to, describing or requiring any provision or content of a plan of reorganization other than any provisions requiring that the DIP Financing be paid in full in cash. Nothing set forth in this Agreement shall restrict the Second Lien Claimholders from proposing debtor-in-possession financing, or the First Lien Claimholders from objecting thereto on any grounds.
6.2 Sale Issues. The Second Lien Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders, agrees that it will raise no objection to or otherwise contest or oppose a sale or other disposition of any Collateral (and any post-petition assets subject to adequate protection Liens in favor of the First Lien Administrative Agent) free and clear of its Liens or other claims under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code if the Required Lenders under the First Lien Credit Agreement have consented to such sale or disposition of such assets so long as the interests of the Second Lien Claimholders in the Collateral (and any post-petition assets subject to adequate protection liens, if any, in favor of the Second Lien Administrative Agent) attach to the proceeds thereof, subject to the terms of this Agreement. If requested by the First Lien Administrative Agent in connection therewith, the Second Lien Administrative Agent shall affirmatively consent to the release of its lien in connection with such a sale or disposition.
6.3 Relief from the Automatic Stay. Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, the Second Lien Administrative Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders, agrees that none of them shall (i) seek relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency
CHARl\1175377v2
29
or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Collateral, without the prior written consent of the First Lien Administrative Agent, or (ii) oppose any request by the First Lien Administrative Agent or any First Lien Claimholder to seek relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Collateral.
6.4 Adequate Protection, (a) The Second Lien Administrative Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders, agrees that none of them shall contest or object to, (or support any other person contesting or objecting to) (i) any request by the First Lien Administrative Agent or the First Lien Claimholders for adequate protection or (ii) any objection by the First Lien Administrative Agent or the First Lien Claimholders to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on the First Lien Administrative Agent or the First Lien Claimholders claiming a lack of adequate protection. In any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, the Second Lien Administrative Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders, may seek adequate protection in respect of the Second Lien Obligations, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, only if (A) the First Lien Claimholders (or any subset thereof) are granted adequate protection in the form of additional collateral including replacement liens on post-petition collateral, and (B) such additional protection requested by the Second Lien Administrative Agent is in the form of a Lien on such additional collateral, which Lien, if granted, will be subordinated to the adequate protection Liens securing the First Lien Obligations and the Liens securing any DIP Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto) on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Second Lien Obligations are so subordinated to the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations under this Agreement and the Liens securing any such DIP Financing. In the event the Second Lien Administrative Agent, on behalf of itself or any of the Second Lien Claimholders, seeks or requests adequate protection in respect of Second Lien Obligations and such adequate protection is granted in the form of additional collateral, then the Second Lien Administrative Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders, agrees that as a condition to the Second Lien Administrative Agent’s receipt of such Lien, the First Lien Administrative Agent also shall be granted a Lien on such additional collateral as security for the First Lien Obligations and for any DIP Financing and that any Lien on such additional collateral securing the Second Lien Obligations shall be subordinated to the Liens on such collateral securing the First Lien Obligations and any DIP Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto) and to any other Liens granted to the First Lien Claimholders as adequate protection on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Second Lien Obligations are so subordinated to the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations under this Agreement and the Liens securing any DIP Financing. Each of the Second Lien Lenders agrees, pursuant to Section 1129(a)(9) of the Bankruptcy Code, that such junior superpriority claims (including any claim arising under 11 U.S.C. §507(b)) may be paid under any plan of reorganization in any combination of cash, debt, equity or other property having a value on the effective date of such plan equal to the allowed amount of such claims. Each of the Second Lien Lenders agrees that, upon the request of the First Lien Administrative Agent, they shall waive a right to distributions of proceeds of Avoidance Actions in respect of any claim granted to the Second Lien Lenders in connection with the DIP Financing or cash collateral usage or arising as a result of the Second Lien Lenders’ rights under 11 U.S.C. §507(b). Each of the Second Lien Lenders agrees that except as expressly set forth in this Section, none of them shall seek or accept adequate protection without the prior written consent of the First Lien Administrative Agent.
(b) Similarly, if the First Lien Claimholders (or any subject thereof) are granted adequate protection in the form of a superpriority claim, then the Second Lien Administrative Agent, on behalf of itself or any of the Second Lien Claimholders, may seek or request a superpriority claim, which superpriority claim will be junior in all respects to the superpriority claim granted to the First Lien Administrative Agent and the First Lien Claimholders, and, in the event that the Second Lien Administrative Agent, on behalf of itself or any of the Second Lien Claimholders, seeks or requests adequate protection in respect of Second Lien Obligations and such adequate protection is granted in the form of a superpriority claim, then the Second Lien Administrative Agent, on behalf of itself and the
CHARl\1175377v2
30
Second Lien Claimholders, agrees that the First Lien Administrative Agent and the providers of any DIP Financing also shall be granted a superpriority claim, which superpriority claim will be senior in all respects to the superpriority claim granted to the Second Lien Administrative Agent and the Second Lien Claimholders.
6.5 No Waiver. Nothing contained herein shall prohibit or in any way limit the First Lien Administrative Agent or any First Lien Claimholder from objecting in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise to any action taken by the Second Lien Administrative Agent or any of the Second Lien Claimholders, including the seeking by the Second Lien Administrative Agent or any Second Lien Claimholders of adequate protection or the asserting by the Second Lien Administrative Agent or any Second Lien Claimholders of any of its rights and remedies under the Second Lien Loan Documents or otherwise; provided, however, that this Section 6.5 shall not limit the rights of the Second Lien Claimholders under the proviso to clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 3.1(a)(ii) or under Section 5.4. Section 6.4 or Section 6.9.
6.6 Avoidance Issues. If any First Lien Claimholder is required in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, or otherwise, to turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of Company or any other Grantor any amount in respect of a First Lien Obligation (a “Recovery”), then such First Lien Claimholders shall be entitled to a reinstatement of First Lien Obligations with respect to all such recovered amounts. If this Agreement shall have been terminated prior to such Recovery, this Agreement shall be reinstated in full force and effect, and such prior termination shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the obligations of the parties hereto from such date of reinstatement. Collateral or proceeds thereof received by the Second Lien Administrative Agent or any Second Lien Claimholder after a Discharge of First Lien Obligations and prior to the reinstatement of such First Lien Obligations shall be delivered to the First Lien Administrative Agent upon such reinstatement in accordance with Section 4.2.
6.7 Separate Grants of Security and Separate Classification. Each of the Grantors, the First Lien Claimholders and the Second Lien Claimholders acknowledges and agrees that (i) the grants of Liens pursuant to the First Lien Collateral Documents and the Second Lien Collateral Documents constitute two separate and distinct grants of Liens and (ii) because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Collateral, the Second Lien Obligations are fundamentally different from the First Lien Obligations and must be separately classified in any plan of reorganization proposed or adopted in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, if it is held that the claims of the First Lien Claimholders and Second Lien Claimholders in respect of the Collateral constitute only one secured claim (rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims), then the First Lien Claimholders shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them from, or in respect of, the Collateral in respect of principal, pre- petition interest and other claims, all amounts owing in respect of post-petition interest, fees, costs and other charges, irrespective of whether a claim for such amounts is allowed or allowable in such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, until the occurrence of the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, before any distribution from, or in respect of, any Collateral is made in respect of the claims held by the Second Lien Claimholders), with the Second Lien Claimholders hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the First Lien Claimholders amounts otherwise received or receivable by them to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing the claim or recovery of the Second Lien Claimholders.
6.8 Reorganization Securities. If, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, debt obligations of the reorganized debtor secured by Liens upon any property of the reorganized debtor are distributed pursuant to a plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan, both on account of First Lien Obligations and on account of Second Lien Obligations, then, to the extent the debt
CHARl\1175377v2
31
obligations distributed on account of the First Lien Obligations and on account of the Second Lien Obligations are secured by Liens upon the same property, the provisions of this Agreement will survive the distribution of such debt obligations pursuant to such plan and will apply with like effect to the Liens securing such debt obligations.
