(a) The Subordinated Creditor shall promptly (but in any event within 30 days) after the earlier to occur of (x) Substantial Completion of the Senior Collateral and (y) 90 days after the date of this Agreement (the earlier of (x) and (y), the “Trigger Date”), effect a conversion of the PIK Notes to common stock and warrants of the Company pursuant to the Indenture and the Recapitalization Agreement (the “PIK Conversion”), provided that, so long as (i) an insolvency or bankruptcy event of default under the Indenture or the Senior Credit Agreement has occurred and is continuing or (ii) the conditions precedent to the PIK Conversion in Section 5.1 of the Recapitalization Agreement have not been satisfied, the Subordinated Creditor may, but shall not be obligated to, consummate the PIK Conversion. So long as any event described in clause (i) or (ii) above remains continuing, consummation of the PIK Conversion shall be at the sole option of the Subordinated Creditor. The Company agrees to use its best efforts to meet all conditions precedent to the effectiveness of the PIK Conversion under the Recapitalization Agreement. In the event that the PIK Conversion has not been consummated because the Company has failed to meet any condition precedent in Section 5.1 of the Recapitalization Agreement, the Company shall continue to use its best efforts to satisfy such condition(s) and consummate the PIK Conversion as soon as possible.

(b) It is understood and agreed that it is the intent of the parties that, as soon as practicable following the Closing Date, all Senior Obligations shall be secured by a perfected first-priority Lien on all Collateral in accordance with the Post-Closing Collateral Requirement. In furtherance of the foregoing, each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor agrees, upon the request of the Senior Agent, promptly to enter into, execute and/or deliver any agreements, filings, instruments or other documents reasonably requested by the Senior Agent (including, without limitation, (x) delivery of any Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected by possession and (y) following the occurrence of the PIK Conversion, releases of the Liens of the Trustee in existence on the date hereof) and to otherwise use its best efforts to permit the Senior Agent to obtain a first-priority perfected Lien on all Collateral. This Section 3.2(b) shall survive termination of this Agreement.

3.3 Prohibition on Contesting Liens. Each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor and the Senior Agent, for itself and on behalf of each Senior Creditor, agrees that it shall not (and hereby waives any right to) contest or support any other Person in contesting, in any proceeding (including any Proceeding), (i) the validity or enforceability of any Security Document or any Obligation thereunder, (ii) the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens, mortgages, assignments and security interests granted pursuant to

Exhibit A
Page 16

the Security Documents with respect to the Senior Obligations or (iii) the relative rights and duties of the holders of the Senior Obligations and the Subordinated Obligations granted and/or established in this Agreement or any other Security Document with respect to such Liens, mortgages, assignments, and security interests; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of the Senior Agent or any other Senior Creditor to enforce this Agreement, including the priority of the Liens securing the Senior Obligations as provided in Section 3.1 hereof.

3.4 No New Liens. So long as the Discharge of Senior Obligations has not occurred, the parties hereto agree that the Company shall not, and shall not permit any other Grantor to, grant or permit any additional Liens, or take any action to perfect any additional Liens, on any asset or property to secure any Subordinated Obligation unless it has also granted a Lien on such asset or property to secure the Senior Obligations and has taken all actions to perfect such Liens. To the extent that the foregoing provisions are not complied with for any reason, without limiting any other rights and remedies available to the Senior Agent and/or the other Senior Creditors, each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor agrees that any amounts received by or distributed to any of them pursuant to or as a result of Liens granted in contravention of this Section 3.4 shall be subject to Section 2.4 hereof.

SECTION 4. Lien Enforcement.

4.1 Exercise of Remedies. (a) Subject to the provisions of the second sentence of Section 2.2(a) hereof, so long as the Discharge of Senior Obligations has not occurred, whether or not any Proceeding has been commenced by or against the Company or any other Grantor: (i) neither the Trustee nor the Subordinated Creditor will exercise or seek to exercise any rights or remedies (including setoff) with respect to any Collateral (including, without limitation, the exercise of any right under any lockbox agreement, control account agreement, landlord waiver or bailee’s letter or similar agreement or arrangement to which the Trustee or any Subordinated Creditor is a party) or institute or commence, or join with any Person in commencing, any action or proceeding with respect to such rights or remedies (including any action of foreclosure, enforcement, collection or execution and any Proceeding), and will not contest, protest or object to any foreclosure proceeding or action brought by the Senior Agent or any other Senior Creditor or any other exercise by the Senior Agent or any other Senior Creditor of any rights and remedies relating to Collateral under the Senior Credit Documents or otherwise, or object to the forbearance by the Senior Agent or the other Senior Creditors from bringing or pursuing any foreclosure proceeding or action or any other exercise of any rights or remedies relating to Collateral; and (ii) the Senior Agent shall have the exclusive right, and the Required Senior Creditors shall have the exclusive right to instruct the Senior Agent, to enforce rights, exercise remedies (including set-off and the right to credit bid their debt) and make determinations regarding the release, disposition, or restrictions with respect to Collateral without any consultation with or the consent of the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor, all as though the Subordinated Obligations did not exist; provided, however, that (A) in any Proceeding commenced by or against the Company or any other Grantor, the Trustee may (x) subject to the provisions of Section 2.2(b) hereof, file a claim or statement of interest with respect to the Subordinated Obligations and (y) subject to the provisions of Section 2.2(c) hereof, vote such claim, (B) the Trustee, at the written direction of

Exhibit A
Page 17

the Subordinated Creditor, may take any action (not adverse to the prior Liens on Common Collateral securing the Senior Obligations, or the rights of the Senior Agent or the other Senior Creditors to exercise remedies in respect thereof) in order to preserve or protect its Lien on Collateral in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (and, with respect to its Liens on Specified Collateral, shall take any such action if instructed to do so by the Senior Agent), (C) the Subordinated Creditor shall be entitled to file any necessary responsive or defensive pleading in opposition to any motion, claim, adversary proceeding or other pleading made by any Person objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of the claims of the Subordinated Creditor, including any claim secured by Collateral, if any, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (D) the Subordinated Creditor may file any pleadings, objections, motions or agreements which assert rights or interests available to unsecured creditors of the Grantors arising under either any Proceeding or applicable non-bankruptcy law, in each case not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement and (E) subject to the provisions of Section 2.2(c) hereof, the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor may file any proof of claim, make other filings and make any arguments and motions that are, in each case, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement with respect to the Subordinated Obligations and Common Collateral.

(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.2(a) hereof, each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor agrees that it will not take or receive any Collateral or any proceeds of Collateral in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy (including setoff) with respect to any Collateral, unless and until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, unless and until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, the sole right of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor with respect to Common Collateral is to hold a Lien on Common Collateral pursuant to the Subordinated Security Documents for the period and to the extent granted therein and to receive a share of the proceeds thereof, if any, after the Discharge of the Senior Obligations has occurred in accordance with the terms of the Subordinated Debt Documents and applicable law.

(c) Each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor (i) agrees that neither the Trustee nor the Subordinated Creditor will take any action that would hinder, delay, limit or prohibit any exercise of remedies under the Senior Credit Documents, including any collection, sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of the Collateral, whether by foreclosure or otherwise, or that would limit, invalidate, avoid or set aside any Lien or Security Document or subordinate the priority of the Senior Obligations to the Subordinated Obligations or grant the Liens on Common Collateral securing the Subordinated Obligations equal ranking to the Liens securing the Senior Obligations and (ii) hereby waives any and all rights it may have as a junior lien creditor or otherwise (whether arising under the UCC or under any other law) to object to the manner in which the Senior Agent or the other Senior Creditors seek to enforce or collect the Senior Obligations or the Liens granted in any of the Collateral, regardless of whether any action or failure to act by or on behalf of the Senior Agent or Senior Creditors is adverse to the interest of the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor.

(d) The Trustee hereby acknowledges and agrees that no covenant, agreement or restriction contained in the Subordinated Security Documents or any other Subordinated Credit Document shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights and remedies of the Senior

Exhibit A
Page 18

Agent or the other Senior Creditors with respect to the Collateral as set forth in this Agreement and the Senior Credit Documents.

SECTION 5. Other Agreements.

5.1 Actions Upon Default Under Subordinated Debt Documents. Each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor agrees that (i) upon the occurrence of an event of default under any Subordinated Debt Document as to which the Trustee is provided written notice, the Trustee shall promptly notify the Senior Agent thereof in writing and shall specify the nature of such event of default and (ii) subject to the other terms of this Agreement governing the undertaking of any Enforcement Action by the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor and to the other terms hereof, if any event of default or other event or condition exists under any Subordinated Debt Document, the effect of which is to permit the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor to accelerate the maturity of any Indebtedness thereunder, then if a Senior Acceleration Event shall have occurred and be continuing and the Senior Agent so instructs in writing, the Trustee and Subordinated Creditor shall forthwith accelerate the Subordinated Obligations in accordance with the terms of such Subordinated Debt Document as in effect on the date hereof.

5.2 Releases. (a) If, in connection with:

(i) the exercise of the Senior Agent’s remedies in respect of the Collateral pursuant to the terms hereof, including any sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of any such Collateral while any event of default under the Senior Credit Agreement remains continuing (any of the foregoing, a “Remedial Action”);

(ii) any sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition (any of the foregoing, a “Disposition”) of any Collateral permitted under the terms of the Senior Credit Documents and the Indenture (in each case, whether or not an event of default thereunder has occurred and is continuing); or

(iii) any agreement not contravening the Senior Debt Documents (including, without limitation, with respect to any asset sale) between the Senior Agent and the Company or any other Grantor (x) to release the Senior Agent’s Lien on any portion of the Collateral (other than as a result of, or in anticipation of, the Discharge of Senior Credit Agreement Obligations or the Discharge of Senior Obligations) or (y) to release any Grantor from its obligations under its guaranty of the Senior Obligations (other than as a result of, or in anticipation of, the Discharge of Senior Credit Agreement Obligations or the Discharge of Senior Obligations);

there occurs the release by the Senior Agent, acting on its own or at the direction of the Required Senior Creditors, of any of its Liens on any part of the Collateral, or of any Grantor from its obligations under its guaranty of the Senior Obligations, then the Liens, if any, of the Trustee, for itself and for the benefit of the Subordinated Creditor, on such Collateral, and the obligations of such Grantor under its guaranty of the Subordinated Obligations, shall be automatically, unconditionally and simultaneously released, and the Trustee, for itself or on behalf of each such Subordinated Creditor, promptly shall execute and deliver to the Senior Agent or such Grantor such termination statements, releases and other documents as the Senior Agent or such Grantor

Exhibit A
Page 19

may request to effectively confirm such release; provided, however, that if the Senior Credit Agreement does not permit such net sale proceeds to be reinvested by the Company, all net proceeds of any transaction described in Section 5.2(a)(i) and 5.2(a)(iii) shall be applied to permanently reduce the Senior Obligations. If an event of default then exists under the Indenture and the Discharge of Senior Obligations occurs concurrently with any such release, the Trustee (for itself and on behalf of the Subordinated Creditor) shall be entitled to receive the residual cash or cash equivalents (if any) remaining after giving effect to such release and the Discharge of the Senior Obligations. Until the Discharge of Senior Obligations occurs, each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Senior Agent and any officer or agent of the Senior Agent, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor or in the Senior Agent’s own name, from time to time in the Senior Agent’s discretion, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Section 5.2, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Section 5.2, including any endorsements or other instruments of transfer or release.

(b) If, prior to the Discharge of Senior Obligations, a subordination of the Senior Agent’s Lien on any Common Collateral is permitted (or in good faith believed by the Senior Agent to be permitted) under the Senior Credit Agreement to another Lien permitted under the Senior Credit Agreement (a “Priority Lien”), then the Senior Agent is authorized to execute and deliver a subordination agreement with respect thereto in form and substance satisfactory to it, and the Subordinated Creditor and the Trustee, at the written direction of the Subordinated Creditor, shall promptly execute and deliver to the Senior Agent or the relevant Grantor an identical subordination agreement subordinating the Liens of the Trustee for the benefit of the Subordinated Creditor to such Priority Lien.

5.3 Insurance. Unless and until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, the Senior Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Senior Creditors) shall have the sole and exclusive right, subject to the rights of the Grantors under the Senior Credit Documents, to adjust settlement for any insurance policy covering the Collateral in the event of any loss thereunder and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding (or any deed in lieu of condemnation) affecting the Collateral. Unless and until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, and subject to the rights of the Grantors under the Senior Security Documents, all proceeds of any such policy and any such award (or any payments with respect to a deed in lieu of condemnation) in respect of the Collateral shall be paid to the Senior Agent for the benefit of the Senior Creditors pursuant to the terms of the Senior Debt Documents (including, without limitation, for purposes of cash collateralization of commitments, and Hedging Agreements) and, after the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, to the Trustee for the benefit of the Subordinated Creditor to the extent required under the Subordinated Security Documents and then, to the extent no Subordinated Obligations are outstanding, to the owner of the subject property, such other Person as may be entitled thereto or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. If the Trustee or any other Subordinated Creditor shall, at any time, receive any proceeds of any such insurance policy or any such award or payment in contravention of this Agreement, it shall pay such proceeds over to the Senior Agent in accordance with the terms of Section 2.3 of this Agreement.

5.4 Amendments and other Modifications to Subordinated Debt Documents; Restrictions on Actions by Subordinated Creditor. Until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred and notwithstanding anything contained in the Subordinated Debt Documents or the Senior Debt Documents to the contrary, neither Trustee nor the Subordinated Creditor shall, without the prior written consent of Senior Agent, agree to any amendment, waiver, modification or supplement to the Subordinated Debt Documents, the effect of which is to (i) increase the maximum principal amount of the Subordinated Obligations, (ii) increase the rate of interest on any of the Subordinated Obligations (except in connection with the imposition of a default rate of interest to the extent provided for in the Subordinated Debt Documents on the date hereof), (iii) alter the dates upon which payments of principal or interest on the Subordinated Obligations are due (other than in connection with the consummation of the PIK Conversion pursuant to this Agreement and to the Recapitalization Agreement), (iv) alter the terms of, add or remove any default or event of default (other than a technical waiver thereof, provided that no such waiver shall be permitted in any event with respect to (A) any default or event of default arising from a cross-default to any Senior Obligations (or an event of default under the Senior Debt Documents (other than a default or event of default arising under the Senior Debt Documents solely as a result of a default or event of default arising under the Indenture) or (B) any default or event of default resulting from the failure of any Grantor to pay, on a timely basis, any principal, interest or fees in respect of Subordinated Obligations), (iv) modify any covenant with respect to the Subordinated Obligations, (v) change the redemption, conversion, prepayment or put provisions of the Subordinated Obligations in a manner adverse to any Grantor, (vi) alter the subordination provisions with respect to the Subordinated Obligations or any Lien securing the same, including, without limitation, subordinating the Subordinated Obligations or any Lien securing the same to any other Indebtedness, (vii) alter the repayment terms of the Subordinated Obligations or forgive any of the Subordinated Obligations, (viii) take any Liens on any property of any Grantor, any Subsidiary of any Grantor or any other Person, except to the extent that Senior Agent shall have been granted a first-priority Lien on such property, (ix) obtain any guaranties or credit support from any Person, unless the Senior Agent and Senior Creditors have obtained a guaranty or credit support, as the case may be, in respect of the Senior Obligations from such Person and such Person’s obligations in respect of such guaranty or credit support, as the case may be, in favor of Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor in respect of the Subordinated Obligations are subordinated to its obligations in respect of the Senior Obligations on the same terms and to the same extent that the Subordinated Obligations are subordinated to the Senor Indebtedness pursuant the terms of this Agreement, (x) release any Specified Collateral (except as expressly permitted the Senior Debt Documents and the Subordinated Debt Documents), (xi) contravene the provisions of this Agreement, the Senior Credit Agreement or any other Senior Debt Document or (xii) change or amend any other term of the Subordinated Debt Documents if such change or amendment would be adverse to any Grantor or confer additional material rights on the Trustee or any Subordinated Creditor or any other holder of the Subordinated Obligations in a manner adverse to any Grantor, the Senior Agent or the Senior Creditors (other than waivers expressly permitted by clause (iv) above).

5.5 Amendments to Senior Debt Documents. The Senior Credit Documents may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified in accordance with their terms and the First-Lien Credit Agreement may be Refinanced, in each case, without notice to, or the

Exhibit A
Page 21

consent of, the Subordinated Agent or the Subordinated Creditor, all without affecting the lien subordination or other provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that any such amendment, supplement, modification or Refinancing of the Senior Credit Agreement shall not, without the consent of the Subordinated Creditor increase the maximum aggregate principal of Loans thereunder to an amount in excess of the Cap Amount.

5.6 Legends. Each of the Company, each other Grantor, the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor agrees that, prior to any transfer of any Subordinated Obligations permitted hereunder, each Subordinated Debt Document shall include the following language (or language to similar effect approved by the Senior Agent):

“THIS NOTE [OR OTHER SUBORDINATED DEBT DOCUMENT] AND THE INDEBTEDNESS EVIDENCED HEREBY ARE SUBORDINATE IN THE MANNER AND TO THE EXTENT SET FORTH IN THAT CERTAIN SUBORDINATION AND INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT (THE “INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT”), DATED AS OF MAY 9, 2007, AMONG GLOBAL CROSSING LIMITED, AS THE ISSUER, XXXXX FARGO BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, NOT IN ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY BUT SOLELY AS TRUSTEE UNDER THE SUBORDINATED DEBT DOCUMENTS, THE OTHER GRANTORS NAMED THEREIN, XXXXXXX SACHS CREDIT PARTNERS L.P., AS SENIOR AGENT AND STT CROSSING LTD., AS THE SUBORDINATED CREDITOR, AND EACH HOLDER OF THIS NOTE, BY ITS ACCEPTANCE HEREOF, SHALL BE BOUND BY THE PROVISIONS OF THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT. IN THE EVENT OF ANY CONFLICT BETWEEN THE TERMS HEREOF AND OF THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT, THE TERMS OF THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT SHALL GOVERN AND CONTROL.”

In addition, the Company, each other Grantor and the Trustee agree that each Subordinated Security Document covering any Collateral constituting real property shall contain such other language as the Senior Agent may reasonably request to reflect the subordination of such Subordinated Security Document to the Senior Security Document covering such Collateral.

5.7 Continued Effectiveness. (a) No right of the Senior Creditors, the Senior Agent or any of them to enforce any provision of this Agreement or any Senior Debt Document shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of any of the Company or any other Grantor or by any act or failure to act by any Senior Creditor or the Senior Agent, or by any noncompliance by any Person with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Agreement, any of the Senior Debt Documents or any of the Subordinated Debt Documents, regardless of any knowledge thereof which the Senior Agent or the Senior Creditors, or any of them, may have or be otherwise charged with.

(b) Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph (but subject to the rights of the Company and the other Grantors under the Senior Debt Documents), the Senior Creditors, the Senior Agent and any of them may, at any time and from time to time in accordance with the Senior Debt Documents and/or applicable law, without the consent of, or notice to, the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor, without incurring any liabilities to the Trustee or any other Subordinated Creditor and without impairing or releasing the subordination, Lien priorities and other benefits provided in this Agreement (even if any right of subrogation or

Exhibit A
Page 22

other right or remedy of the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor is affected, impaired or extinguished thereby) do any one or more of the following:

(i) subject to the provisions of Section 5.5 hereof, make loans and advances to any Grantor or issue, guaranty or obtain letters of credit for account of any Grantor or otherwise extend credit to any Grantor, in any amount and on any terms, whether pursuant to a commitment or as a discretionary advance and whether or not any default or event of default or failure of condition is then continuing;

(ii) subject to the other provisions of Section 5.5 hereof, change the manner, place or terms of payment or change or extend the time of payment of, or amend, renew, exchange, increase or alter, the terms of any of the Senior Obligations or any Lien on any Common Collateral or guaranty thereof or any liability of any the Company or any other Grantor, or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof (including any increase in or extension of the Senior Obligations, without any restriction as to the amount, tenor or terms of any such increase or extension) or otherwise amend, renew, exchange, extend, modify or supplement in any manner any Liens held by the Senior Agent or any of the Senior Creditors, the Senior Obligations or any of the Senior Debt Documents;

(iii) sell, exchange, release, surrender, realize upon, enforce or otherwise deal with in any manner and in any order any part of the Collateral or any liability of the Company or any other Grantor to the Senior Creditors or the Senior Agent, or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof;

(iv) settle or compromise any Senior Obligation or any other liability of the Company or any other Grantor or any security therefor or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof and apply any sums by whomsoever paid and however realized to any liability (including the Senior Obligations) in any manner or order;

(v) exercise or delay in or refrain from exercising any right or remedy against the Company or any other Grantor or any other Person or with respect to any security, elect any remedy and otherwise deal freely with the Company, any other Grantor or any Collateral and any security and any guarantor or any liability of the Company or any other Grantor to the Senior Creditors or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof; and

(vi) release or discharge any Senior Obligation or any guaranty thereof or any agreement or obligation of any Grantor or any other person or entity with respect thereto.

(c) In the event the Senior Agent or the other Senior Creditors and the relevant Grantor(s) enter into any amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the Senior Security Documents for the purpose of adding to, or deleting from, or waiving or consenting to any departures from any provisions of, any Senior Security Document or changing in any manner the rights of the Senior Agent, the other Senior Creditors, the Company or any other Grantor thereunder, then such amendment, waiver or consent shall apply automatically to any comparable provision of the Indenture and any Comparable Subordinated Security Document without the consent of the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor and without any action by the

Exhibit A
Page 23

Trustee, the Company or any other Grantor, provided that (A) no such amendment, waiver or consent shall have the effect of (i) removing assets subject to the Lien of the Subordinated Security Documents, except to the extent that a release of such Lien is permitted by Section 5.2 of this Agreement, (ii) imposing additional duties on the Trustee or otherwise exposing the Trustee to any liability or effect any right, power, exculpation or indemnity set forth in the Indenture without its written consent, or (iii) permitting other Liens on the Collateral not permitted under the terms of the Subordinated Debt Documents or Section 6 hereof and (B) prompt notice of such amendment, waiver or consent has been given to the Trustee (although the failure to give any such notice shall in no way affect the effectiveness of any such amendment, waiver or consent).

5.8 Rights As Unsecured Creditors. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor may exercise rights and remedies as unsecured creditors against the Company or any other Grantor that has guaranteed the Subordinated Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Subordinated Debt Documents and applicable law. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by the Trustee or any other Subordinated Creditor of the Permitted Subordinated Debt Payments so long as such receipt is (i) not the direct or indirect result of the exercise by the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor of rights or remedies (including, without limitation, any Enforcement Action and any exercise of rights or remedies as a secured creditor (including set-off)) in contravention of this Agreement and (ii) permitted under the Senior Credit Documents. In the event the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor becomes a judgment lien creditor in respect of Collateral as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor, such judgment lien shall be subordinated to the Liens securing Senior Obligations on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Subordinated Obligations are so subordinated to such Senior Obligations under this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement impairs or otherwise adversely affects any rights or remedies the Senior Agent or the other Senior Creditors may have with respect to the Collateral.

5.9 Collateral in Possession; Bailee for Perfection. (a) If the Senior Agent takes possession of or has “control” (as such term is defined in the UCC) over any Common Collateral for purposes of perfecting its Lien thereon (including equity certificates, deposit accounts and investment property), the Senior Agent, to the extent such Liens may be perfected only by such possession or control, shall be deemed to be holding such Common Collateral as agent for Trustee, solely for purposes of perfection of its Lien under the UCC on such Common Collateral; provided that the Senior Agent shall have no duty or liability to protect or preserve any rights pertaining to any of the Common Collateral for the Trustee or any Subordinated Creditor, and each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor hereby waives and releases the Senior Agent from all claims and liabilities arising pursuant to its role as such agent, except for claims and liabilities arising from the Senior Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as finally determined pursuant to a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(b) If the Trustee takes possession of or has “control” (as such term is defined in the UCC) over any Common Collateral for purposes of perfecting its Lien thereon (including equity certificates, deposit accounts and investment property), the Trustee, to the extent such Liens may be perfected by such possession or control, shall be deemed to be holding such

Exhibit A
Page 24

Common Collateral as agent for the Senior Agent, solely for purposes of perfection of its Lien under the UCC on such Common Collateral; provided that the Trustee shall have no duty or liability to protect or preserve any rights pertaining to any of the Common Collateral for the Senior Agent or any of the Senior Creditors, and the Senior Agent and each Senior Creditor hereby waives and releases the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor from all claims and liabilities arising pursuant to its role as such agent, except for claims and liabilities arising from Trustee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as finally determined pursuant to a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction.

5.10 [Reserved]

5.11 Turnover of Collateral and Proceeds of Collateral. Upon the Discharge of the Senior Obligations, the Senior Agent shall deliver any remaining Collateral in its possession, or any proceeds thereof, together with any necessary endorsements, first, to the Trustee, if any Subordinated Obligations remain outstanding, and second, to the Company or the relevant Grantor if no Senior Obligations or Subordinated Obligations remain outstanding (in each case, in the case of any Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected solely by “control” (as defined in the UCC), so as to allow such Person to obtain “control” of such Collateral). The Senior Agent further agrees to take all other action reasonably requested by such Person in connection with such Person’s obtaining a first-priority security interest in the Collateral or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

5.12 When Discharge of Senior Obligations Deemed to Not Have Occurred. If at any time after the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, the Company immediately thereafter enters into any Refinancing of any Senior Credit Document evidencing a Senior Obligation which Refinancing is permitted hereby, then such Discharge of Senior Obligations shall automatically be deemed not to have occurred for all purposes of this Agreement, and the obligations under such Refinancing Senior Credit Document shall automatically be treated as Senior Obligations for all purposes of this Agreement, including for purposes of the payment subordination and Lien priorities and rights in respect of Collateral set forth herein, and the Senior Agent under such Senior Credit Documents shall be the Senior Agent for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon receipt of a notice stating that the Company has entered into a new Senior Credit Document (which notice shall include the identity of the new agent, such agent, the “New Agent”), the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor shall promptly enter into such documents and agreements (including amendments or supplements to this Agreement) as the respective Company or such New Agent may 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; provided same does not alter, modify or vitiate any rights, protections, immunities or indemnities afforded to the Trustee hereunder or under the Indenture.

5.13 Option to Purchase Senior Debt. (a) Without prejudice to the enforcement of remedies by the Senior Creditors, any Person or Persons (in each case who must meet all eligibility standards contained in all relevant Senior Debt Documents) at any time or from time to time designated by the holders of more than 50% in aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Subordinated Obligations as being entitled to exercise all default purchase options as to the Subordinated Obligations then outstanding (an “Eligible Purchaser”) shall have the right to purchase by way of assignment (and shall thereby also

Exhibit A
Page 25

assume all commitments and duties of the Senior Creditors), at any time during the exercise period described in clause (c) below of this Section 5.13, all, but not less than all, of the Senior Obligations (other than the Senior 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 Senior Obligations outstanding at the time of purchase; provided that at the time of (and as a condition to) any purchase pursuant to this Section 5.13, all commitments pursuant to any then outstanding Senior Credit Agreement shall have terminated and all Hedging Agreements constituting Senior Debt Documents shall also have been terminated in accordance with their terms. Any purchase pursuant to this Section 5.13(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 Senior Obligations, the greater of (I) 100% and (II) the then current market-based price, of the principal amount thereof and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the date of purchase (without regard, however, to any acceleration prepayment penalties or premiums other than customary breakage costs), (B) in the case of any Hedging Agreement, the aggregate amount then owing to each Other Creditor thereunder pursuant to the terms of the respective Hedging Agreement, including without limitation all amounts owing to such Other Creditor as a result of the termination (or early termination) thereof plus (C) 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 pay over to the Senior Creditors any amounts recovered by such Eligible Purchasers on account of any acceleration prepayment premiums or penalties with respect to the Senior Obligations;

(2) with the purchase price described in preceding clause (a)(1)(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 Senior Obligation or the validity, enforceability, perfection, priority or sufficiency of any Lien securing, or guarantee or other supporting obligation for, any Senior 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 Senior Credit Agreement, in which case the purchase price described in preceding clause (a)(1)(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 Senior Obligations);

(3) with the purchase price described in preceding clause (a)(1)(x) accompanied by a waiver by the Trustee (acting at the written direction of the Subordinated Creditor) 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 5.13;

Exhibit A

(5) with all amounts payable to the various Senior Creditors in respect of the assignments described above to be distributed to them by the Senior Agent in accordance with their respective holdings of the various Senior 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 Senior Agent (with the cost of such counsel to be paid by the Grantors or, if the Grantors do not make such payment, by the respective Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers, who shall have the right to obtain reimbursement of same from the Grantors); it being understood and agreed that the Senior Agent and each other Senior Creditor shall retain all rights to indemnification as provided in the relevant Senior Debt Documents for all periods prior to any assignment by them pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.13.

(b) The right to exercise the purchase option described in Section 5.13(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 Senior Agent by an Eligible Purchaser (the “Purchase Notice”). Neither the Senior Agent nor any other Senior Creditor shall have any disclosure obligation to any Eligible Purchaser, the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor in connection with any exercise of such purchase option.

(c) The right to purchase the Senior Obligations as described in this Section 5.13 may be exercised (by giving the irrevocable written notice described in preceding clause (b)) during the period that (1) begins on the date occurring three Business Days after the first to occur of (x) the date of the acceleration of the final maturity of the Loans under the Senior Credit Agreement, (y) the occurrence of the final maturity of the Loans under the Senior Credit Agreement or (z) the occurrence of a Proceeding with respect to the Company which constitutes a default or event of default under the Senior Credit Agreement (in each case, so long as the acceleration, failure to pay amounts due at final maturity or such Proceeding constituting a default or event of default has not been rescinded or cured within such 10 Business Day Period, and so long as any unpaid amounts constituting Senior Obligations remain owing); provided, however, that if there is any failure to meet the condition described in the proviso of preceding clause (a) hereof, the aforementioned date shall be extended until the first date upon which such condition is satisfied, and (2) ends on the 90th day after the start of the period described in clause (1) above; provided, further, however, that in connection with such purchase right only, the Senior Agent shall provide the Subordinated Creditor with five days’ prior written notice (an “Agent Notice”) of (x) an exercise of remedies by the Senior Agent with respect to all or any substantial portion of the Common Collateral, (y) its intention to accelerate the final maturity of the Loans or (z) the institution by the Senior Agent of any Proceeding under applicable Bankruptcy Law with respect to any Grantor, and in each such case the period during which the Subordinated Creditor shall have the right to purchase the Senior Obligations as described in this Section 5.13 shall commence upon the delivery to the Subordinated Creditor of such notice in accordance with the terms hereof; provided, further, however, that no prior notice by the Senior Agent of its taking any action specified in immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y) shall be required if the Senior Agent believes fraud or willful misconduct has occurred or is occurring or determines in its discretion that such action is necessary or desirable to protect against a material

Exhibit A
Page 27

impairment, dissipation or devaluation of the Collateral. In the event an Eligible Purchaser provides a Purchase Notice to the Senior Agent within 5 days of receipt of an Agent Notice, the Senior Agent and the Senior Creditors shall not undertake any actions described in clauses (x), (y) or (z) so long as such purchase by the Eligible Purchaser is consummated within seven Business Days of the date of delivery of such Purchase Notice.

(d) The obligations of the Senior Creditors to sell their respective Senior Obligations under this Section 5.13 are several and not joint and several. To the extent any Senior Creditor (a “Defaulting Creditor”) breaches its obligation to sell its Senior Obligations under this Section 5.13, nothing in this Section 5.13 shall be deemed to require the Senior Agent or any other Senior Creditor to purchase such Defaulting Creditor’s Senior Obligations for resale to the holders of Subordinated Obligations and in all cases, the Senior Agent and each Senior Creditor complying with the terms of this Section 5.13 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 Senior Obligations.

(e) Each Grantor irrevocably consents to any assignment effected to one or more Eligible Purchasers pursuant to this Section 5.13 (so long as they meet all eligibility standards contained in all relevant Senior Debt Documents, other than obtaining the consent of any Grantor to an assignment to the extent required by such Senior Debt Documents) for purposes of all Senior Debt Documents and hereby agrees that no further consent from such Grantor shall be required.

SECTION 6. Proceedings.

6.1 Finance Issues. If the Company or any other Grantor shall be subject to any Proceeding and the Senior Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Senior Creditors) shall desire to permit the use of Cash Collateral on which the Senior Agent or any other creditor the Company or any other Grantor has a Lien or to permit the Company or any other Grantor to obtain financing (including on a priming basis), whether from the Senior Creditors or any other third party under Section 362, 363 or 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any other Bankruptcy Law (each, a “Post-Petition Financing”), then each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor agrees that it will not oppose or raise any objection to or contest (or join with or support any third party opposing, objecting to or contesting), such use of Cash Collateral or Post-Petition Financing and will not request adequate protection or any other relief in connection therewith (except as expressly agreed in writing by the Senior Agent or to the extent permitted by Section 6.3 hereof) and, to the extent the Liens securing the Senior Obligations are subordinated to or pari passu with such Post-Petition Financing, the Liens of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor on the Common Collateral shall be deemed to be subordinated, without any further action on the part of any person or entity, to the Liens securing such Post-Petition Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto), and the Liens securing the Subordinated Obligations shall have the same priority with respect to the Common Collateral relative to the Liens securing the Senior Obligations as if such Post-Petition Financing had not occurred.

6.2 Relief from the Automatic Stay. Until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor, agrees that none

Exhibit A
Page 28

of them shall seek relief, pursuant to Section 362(d) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, from the automatic stay of Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or from any other stay in any Proceeding in respect of the Collateral, without the prior written consent of the Senior Agent.

6.3 Adequate Protection. Each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor agrees that none of them shall (i) oppose, object to or contest (or join with or support any third party opposing, objecting to or contesting) (a) any request by the Senior Agent or the other Senior Creditors for adequate protection in any Proceeding (or any granting of such request) or (b) any objection by the Senior Agent or the other Senior Creditors to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on the Senior Agent or the other Senior Creditors claiming a lack of adequate protection or (ii) seek or accept any form of adequate protection under any of Sections 362, 363 and/or 364 of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to Common Collateral except that, if the Senior Agent or the Senior Creditors are granted adequate protection in the form of replacement Liens on the Grantors’ assets, the Subordinated Creditor or the Trustee on its behalf may seek or request adequate protection in the form of a replacement Lien on the same assets of the Grantors as awarded to the Senior Creditors, which Lien, however, will be subordinated to the Liens securing the Senior Obligations (including any replacement Liens granted in respect of the Senior Obligations) and any Post-Petition Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto) on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Subordinated Obligations are so subordinated to the Senior Obligations under this Agreement.

6.4 No Waiver. Nothing contained herein shall prohibit or in any way limit the Senior Agent or any Senior Creditor from objecting on any basis in any Proceeding or otherwise to any action taken by the Trustee or any other Subordinated Creditor, including the seeking by the Trustee or any other Subordinated Creditor of adequate protection or the assertion by the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor of any of its rights and remedies under the Subordinated Debt Documents or otherwise.

6.5 Preference Issues. If any Senior Creditor is required in any Proceeding or otherwise to turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of the Company or any other Grantor any amount (a “Recovery”), then the Senior Obligations shall be reinstated to the extent of such Recovery and the Senior Creditors shall be entitled to a reinstatement of Senior 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. Any amounts received by the Trustee or any Subordinated Creditor on account of the Subordinated Obligations after the termination of this Agreement shall, in the event of a reinstatement of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 6.5, be held in trust for and paid over to the Senior Agent for the benefit of the Senior Creditors, for application to the reinstated Senior Obligations. This Section 6.5 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

6.6 Post-Petition Interest. (a) Neither the Trustee nor the Subordinated Creditor shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the Senior Agent or any other Senior Creditor for allowance in any Proceeding of Senior Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses. Regardless of whether any such claim for post-petition interest, fees or expenses is allowed or allowable, and without limiting the generality of the other provisions

Exhibit A
Page 29

of this Agreement, this Agreement expressly is intended to include and does include the “rule of explicitness” in that this Agreement expressly entitles the Senior Creditors, and is intended to provide the Senior Creditors with the right, to receive payment of all post-petition interest, fees or expenses through distributions made pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement even though such interest, fees and expenses are not allowed or allowable against the bankruptcy estate of the Company or any other Grantor under Section 502(b)(2) or Section 506(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or under any other provision of the Bankruptcy Code or any other Bankruptcy Law.

(b) Neither the Senior Agent nor any other Senior Creditor shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the Trustee or any other Subordinated Creditor for allowance in any Proceeding of Subordinated Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses so long as the Senior Creditors are receiving post-petition interest, fees or expenses in at least the same form being requested by the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor and then only to the extent of the value of the Lien of the Trustee on behalf of the Subordinated Creditor on the Collateral (after taking into account the value of the Lien of the Senior Agent on behalf of the Senior Creditors on the Collateral); provided, however, to the extent that any such payments are later recharacterized as payments of principal by the applicable bankruptcy court, such payments shall, upon such recharacterization, be turned over to the Senior Creditors and applied to the Senior Obligations in accordance with Section 2.4 hereof.

(c) Without limiting the foregoing, it is the intention of the parties hereto that (and to the maximum extent permitted by law the parties hereto agree that) the Senior Obligations (and the security therefor) constitute a separate and distinct class (and separate and distinct claims) from the Subordinated Obligations (and the security therefor).

6.7 Waiver. Each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor waives any claim it may hereafter have against any Senior Creditor arising out of the election by any Senior Creditor of the application to the claims of any First Lien Creditor of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, and/or out of any Cash Collateral or Post-Petition Financing arrangement or out of any grant of a security interest in connection with the Collateral in any Proceeding; provided, however, that the foregoing is consistent with the terms of this Agreement.

6.8 Limitations. So long as the Discharge of Senior Obligations has not occurred, without the express written consent of the Senior Agent, neither the Trustee nor the Subordinated Creditor shall (or shall join with or support any third party making, opposing, objecting or contesting, as the case may be), in any Proceeding involving any Grantor, (i) oppose, object to or contest the determination of the extent of any Liens held by any of the Senior Creditors or the value of any claims of Senior Creditors under Section 506(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or (ii) oppose, object to or contest the payment to the Senior Creditors of interest, fees or expenses under Section 506(b) of the Bankruptcy Code.

SECTION 7. Representations and Warranties. The Subordinated Creditor hereby represents and warrants to the Senior Agent and the Senior Creditors, and the Senior Agent hereby represents and warrants (as to itself and not as to any other Person) to the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor, in each case as follows:

7.2 Authority. Such Person has full power and authority to enter into, execute, deliver and carry out the terms of this Agreement and to incur the obligations provided for herein, all of which have been duly authorized by all proper and necessary action and are not prohibited by the organizational documents of such Person.

7.3 Binding Agreements. This Agreement, when executed and delivered, will constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of such Person enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by equitable principles.

7.4 Conflicting Agreements; Litigation. No provisions of any mortgage, indenture, contract, agreement, statute, rule, regulation, judgment, decree or order binding on such Person or affecting the property of such Person conflicts with, or requires any consent which has not already been obtained under, or would in any way prevent the execution, delivery or performance of the terms of this Agreement. The execution, delivery and carrying out of the terms of this Agreement will not constitute a default under, or (except as contemplated hereby), result in the creation or imposition of, or obligation to create, any Lien upon the property of such Person pursuant to the terms of any such mortgage, indenture, contract or agreement. No pending or, to the best of such Person’s knowledge, threatened, litigation, arbitration or other proceedings if adversely determined would in any way prevent the performance of the terms of this Agreement.

7.5 No Divestiture. Solely in the case of the Subordinated Creditor, on the date hereof, the Subordinated Creditor which is signatory hereto is the current owner and holder of the PIK Notes and all other Subordinated Obligations.

7.6 Default under Subordinated Debt Documents. Solely in the case of the Subordinated Creditor, on the date hereof, the Subordinated Creditor has not received notice from the Company or any Grantor that any default or event of default has occurred under or and remains continuing with respect to any of the Subordinated Debt Documents.

SECTION 8. Reliance; Waivers; Etc.

8.1 Reliance. Other than any reliance on the terms of this Agreement, the Senior Agent, on behalf of itself and the Senior Creditors under the Senior Credit Documents, acknowledges that it and the other Senior Creditors have, independently and without reliance on the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor, and based on documents and information deemed by them appropriate, made their own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Senior Debt Documents and be bound by the terms of this Agreement and they will continue to make their own credit decision in taking or not taking any action under any Senior Debt Document or this Agreement. The Subordinated Creditor acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance on the Senior Agent or any other Senior Creditor, and based on documents and information deemed by it appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into

8.2 No Warranties or Liability. The Senior Agent, on behalf of itself and the Senior Creditors under the Senior Debt Documents, acknowledges and agrees that each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor has made no express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the execution, validity, legality, completeness, collectibility or enforceability of any of the Subordinated Debt Documents, the ownership of any Collateral or the perfection or priority of any Liens thereon. The Subordinated Creditor will be entitled to manage and supervise their respective loans and extensions of credit under the Subordinated Debt Documents in accordance with law and as they may otherwise, in their sole discretion, deem appropriate. Each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor acknowledges and agrees that each of the Senior Agent and the Senior Creditors have made no express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the execution, validity, legality, completeness, collectibility or enforceability of any of the Senior Debt Documents, the ownership of any Collateral or the perfection or priority of any Liens thereon. The Senior Creditors will be entitled to manage and supervise their respective loans and extensions of credit under their respective Senior Debt Documents in accordance with law and as they may otherwise, in their sole discretion, deem appropriate. The Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor shall have no duty to the Senior Agent or any of the other Senior Creditors, and the Senior Agent and the other Senior Creditors shall have no duty to the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor, to act or refrain from acting in a manner which allows, or results in, the occurrence or continuance of a default or event of default or default under any agreements with the Company or any other Grantor (including under the Senior Debt Documents and the Subordinated Debt Documents), regardless of any knowledge thereof which they may have or be charged with.

8.3 Waiver of Liability; Indemnity. (a) Each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor also agrees that the Senior Creditors and the Senior Agent shall have no liability to the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor, and each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor hereby waives any claim against any Senior Creditor or the Senior Agent, arising out of any and all actions which the Senior Creditors or the Senior Agent may take or permit or omit to take with respect to: (i) the Senior Debt Documents (including, without limitation, any failure to perfect or obtain perfected security interests in the Senior Collateral), (ii) the collection of the Senior Obligations or (iii) the foreclosure upon, or sale, liquidation or other disposition of, any Collateral. Each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor agrees that the Senior Creditors and the Senior Agent have no duty, express or implied, fiduciary or otherwise, to them in respect of the maintenance or preservation of the Collateral, the Senior Obligations or otherwise. Neither the Senior Agent nor any other Senior Creditor nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents will be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so, or will be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of the Company or any other Grantor or upon the request of the Trustee, any other holder of Subordinated Obligations or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. Without limiting the foregoing, each Subordinated

Exhibit A
Page 32

Creditor by accepting the benefits of the Subordinated Security Documents agrees that neither the Senior Agent nor any other Senior Creditor (in directing the Trustee to take any action with respect to the Collateral) shall have any duty or obligation to realize first upon any type of Collateral or to sell, dispose of or otherwise liquidate all or any portion of the Collateral in any manner, including as a result of the application of the principles of marshalling or otherwise, that would maximize the return to any class of Creditors holding Obligations of any type (whether Senior Obligations or Subordinated Obligations), notwithstanding that the order and timing of any such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation may affect the amount of proceeds actually received by such class of Creditors from such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation.

(b) With respect to its share of the Obligations, Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Credit Partners L.P. (“Bank”) shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder as, and shall be subject to the same obligations and liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein for, any other Creditor, all as if Bank were not the Senior Agent. The term “Creditors” or any similar term shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include Bank in its individual capacity as a Creditor. Bank and its affiliates may lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Grantors or any of their affiliates as if Bank were not acting as the Senior Agent or Trustee and without any duty to account therefor to any other Creditor.

(c) The Company and each Grantor shall reimburse the Trustee for all reasonable fees and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) incurred in connection with the review, drafting and negotiation of this Agreement).

8.4 Obligations Unconditional.

Exhibit A
Page 33

(v) any other circumstances which otherwise might constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Company or any other Grantor in respect of the Senior Obligations, or of the Trustee or any Subordinated Creditor in respect of this Agreement.

8.5 Marshalling; Additional Waiver. Each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law any rights such Person may have under applicable law to assert or otherwise to claim the benefit of, any marshalling, appraisal, valuation or other similar right that may otherwise be available under applicable law with respect to the assets of any Grantor for the benefit of the Trustee or such Subordinated Creditor. Each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor expressly waives all notice of the acceptance by the Senior Agent and the Senior Creditors of the subordination and other terms and provisions of this Agreement and all the notices whatsoever not specifically required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or under the UCC in connection with any foreclosure on or sale of property of any of the Grantors and each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor expressly consents to reliance by the Senior Agent and the other Senior Creditors upon the subordination and other terms and provisions of this Agreement.

SECTION 9. Miscellaneous.

9.1 Conflicts. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of the Senior Debt Documents or the Subordinated Debt Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern and control.

9.2 Effectiveness; Continuing Nature of this Agreement; Severability. This Agreement shall become effective when executed and delivered by the parties hereto. This is a continuing agreement of payment subordination and Lien subordination and the Senior Creditors may continue, at any time and without notice to the Trustee or any other Subordinated Creditor, to extend credit and other financial accommodations and lend monies to or for the benefit of the Company or any other Grantor constituting Senior Obligations in reliance hereon. Each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor hereby waives any right it may have under applicable law to revoke this Agreement or any of the provisions of this Agreement. The terms of this Agreement shall survive, and shall continue in full force and effect, in any Proceeding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement is intended to constitute and shall be deemed to constitute a “subordination agreement” within the meaning of Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and is intended to be and shall be interpreted to be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted pursuant to applicable nonbankruptcy law. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. All references to the Company or any other Grantor shall include the Company or such Grantor as debtor and debtor-in-possession and any receiver or trustee for the Company or any other Grantor (as the case may be) in any Proceeding. This Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect, (i) with respect to the Trustee, the Subordinated Creditor and the Subordinated Obligations, upon the earlier of (A) the date on which the PIK Conversion occurs with regard to all PIK Notes and (B) later of (x) the date upon which the obligations under the Indenture terminate if there are no other Subordinated Obligations outstanding on such date and (y) if there are other Subordinated Obligations outstanding on such date, the date upon which

Each waiver of the terms of this Agreement, if any, shall be a waiver only with respect to the specific instance involved and shall not impair the rights of the parties making such waiver or the obligations of the other parties to such party in any other respect or at any other time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Grantor shall have any right to consent to or approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement except to the extent its rights, interests, liabilities or privileges are directly affected. In no event shall the Trustee be required to execute any amendment, waiver or modification which affects adversely its rights, duties, obligations or protections hereunder or under the Subordinated Debt Documents.

9.4 Information Concerning Financial Condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries. The Senior Agent and the Senior Creditors, on the one hand, and the Subordinated Creditor, on the other hand, shall each be responsible for keeping themselves informed of (a) the financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries and all endorsers and/or guarantors of the Senior Obligations or the Subordinated Obligations and (b) all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Senior Obligations or the Subordinated Obligations. The Senior Agent and the other Senior Creditors shall have no duty to advise the Trustee or any other Subordinated Creditor of information known to it or them regarding such condition or any such circumstances or otherwise. In the event the Senior Agent or any of the other Senior Creditors, in its or their sole discretion, undertakes at any time or from time to time to provide any such information to the Trustee or any other Subordinated Creditor, it or they shall be under no obligation (w) to make, and the Senior Agent and the other Senior Creditors shall not make, any express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the accuracy, completeness, truthfulness or validity of any such information so provided, (x) to provide any additional information or to provide any such information on any subsequent occasion, (y) to undertake any investigation or (z) to disclose any information which, pursuant to accepted or reasonable commercial finance practices, such party wishes to maintain confidential or is otherwise required to maintain confidential.

Exhibit A
Page 35

Creditors under the terms of this Agreement, the Subordinated Creditor and the Trustee shall be subrogated to the rights of the Senior Agent and such other Senior Creditors; provided that, each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor hereby agrees not to assert or enforce all such rights of subrogation it may acquire as a result of any payment hereunder until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred so long as Senior Agent and the Senior Creditors make reasonable efforts to preserve the rights and remedies under the Senior Credit Documents to which Trustee and Subordinated Creditor are subrogated. The Company and each other Grantor acknowledges and agrees that, the value of any payments or distributions in cash, property or other assets received by the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor and paid over to the Senior Agent or the other Senior Creditors pursuant to, and applied in accordance with, this Agreement, shall not relieve or reduce any of the Obligations owed by the Company or any other Grantor under the Senior Debt Documents.

9.6 Application of Payments. All payments received by the Senior Agent or the other Senior Creditors may be applied, reversed and reapplied, in whole or in part, to such part of the Senior Obligations as the Senior Creditors, in their sole discretion, deem appropriate. Each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor assents to any extension or postponement of the time of payment of the Senior Obligations or any part thereof and to any other indulgence with respect thereto, to any substitution, exchange or release of any security which may at any time secure any part of the Senior Obligations and to the addition or release of any other Person primarily or secondarily liable therefor.

WARRANT AGREEMENT dated as of , 2007 between Global Crossing Limited, a company organized under the laws of Bermuda (the “Company”), on the one hand, and STT Crossing Ltd, a company organized under the laws of Mauritius (“STT Crossing”), on the other hand.

WHEREAS, the Company proposes to issue to STT Crossing, or their designees, Common Stock Purchase Warrants, as hereinafter described (the “Warrants”), to purchase up to an aggregate of 8,806,431 ordinary shares, par value, US$0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Company (the Common Stock issuable on exercise of the Warrants being referred to herein as the “Warrant Shares”), pursuant to a Recapitalization Agreement dated May 9, 2007.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements herein set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:

SECTION 1. Warrant Certificates. The certificates evidencing the Warrants (the “Warrant Certificates”) to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall be in registered form only and shall be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto.

SECTION 2. Execution of Warrant Certificates. Warrant Certificates shall be signed on behalf of the Company by a director of the Company and its secretary or another director under its corporate seal. Each such signature upon the Warrant Certificates may be in the form of a facsimile signature of the present or any future director or secretary and may be imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the Warrant Certificates and for that purpose the Company may adopt and use the facsimile signature of any person who shall have been a director or secretary, notwithstanding the fact that at the time the Warrant Certificates shall be delivered or disposed of he shall have ceased to hold such office. The seal of the Company may be in the form of a facsimile thereof and may be impressed, affixed, imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the Warrant Certificates.

In case any officer of the Company who shall have signed any of the Warrant Certificates shall cease to be such officer before the Warrant Certificates so signed shall have been disposed of by the Company, such Warrant Certificates nevertheless may be delivered or disposed of as though such person had not ceased to be such officer of the Company; and any Warrant Certificate may be signed on behalf of the Company by any person who, at the actual date of the execution of such Warrant Certificate, shall be a proper officer of the Company to sign such Warrant Certificate, although at the date of the execution of this Agreement any such person was not such officer.

SECTION 3. Registration. The Company shall number and register the Warrant Certificates in a register as they are issued. The Company may deem and treat the registered holder(s) of the Warrant Certificates as the absolute owner(s) thereof (notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing thereon made by anyone), for all purposes, and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.

SECTION 4. Registration of Transfers and Exchanges. The Company shall from time to time register the transfer of any outstanding Warrant Certificates in a Warrant register to be maintained by the Company upon surrender thereof accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company, duly executed by the registered holder or holders thereof or by the duly appointed legal representative thereof or by a duly authorized attorney. Upon any such registration of transfer, a new Warrant Certificate shall be issued to the transferee(s) and the surrendered Warrant Certificate shall be cancelled and disposed of by the Company.

A-1

The Warrant holders agree that any proposed transfer of the Warrant or of the Warrant Shares will be made only if such transfer is made pursuant to an effective Registration Statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), or pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Act. If such transfer is proposed to be made pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Act, the Warrant holder will, if requested by the Company, deliver to the Company an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company, that the Warrant or Warrant Shares may be sold publicly without registration under the Act.

The Warrant holders agree that each certificate representing Warrant Shares will bear the following legend:

“This warrant has been acquired for investment. This warrant and the securities issuable upon exercise of the warrant have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Such securities may not be offered, sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or hypothecated without compliance with the transfer restrictions set forth in the Warrant Agreement dated [•], 2007 by and among the Company and the parties named therein and unless the registration provisions of said Act have been complied with or unless the Company has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such registration is not required.”

Warrant Certificates may be exchanged at the option of the holder(s) thereof, when surrendered to the Company at its office for another Warrant Certificate or other Warrant Certificates of like tenor and representing in the aggregate a like number of Warrants. Warrant Certificates surrendered for exchange shall be cancelled and disposed of by the Company.

SECTION 5. Warrants; Exercise of Warrants. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Warrant holder shall have the right, which may be exercised commencing at the opening of business on [Ÿ], 2007 and until 5:00 p.m., New York City time on [Ÿ], 2017 (the “Exercise Period”) to receive from the Company the number of fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares which the holder may at the time be entitled to receive on exercise of such Warrants and payment of the Exercise Price (as defined below) then in effect for such Warrant Shares. In the alternative, each Holder may exercise its right, during the Exercise Period, to receive Warrant Shares on a net basis, such that, without the exchange of any funds, the Holder receives that number of Warrant Shares otherwise issuable (or payable) upon exercise of its Warrants less that number of Warrant Shares having an aggregate fair market value (as defined below) at the time of exercise equal to the aggregate Exercise Price that would otherwise have been paid by the Holder of the Warrant Shares. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, “fair market value” of the Warrant Shares will be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company as of the date of any such exercise. Each Warrant not exercised prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on [Ÿ], 2017 shall become void and all rights thereunder and all rights in respect thereof under this agreement shall cease as of such time. No adjustments as to dividends will be made upon exercise of the Warrants.

A Warrant may be exercised upon surrender to the Company at its office designated for such purpose (the address of which is set forth in Section 13 hereof) of the certificate or certificates evidencing the Warrants to be exercised with the form of election to purchase on the reverse thereof duly filled in and signed, and upon payment to the Company of the exercise price of US$0.01 per Warrant Share (the “Exercise Price”), which is set forth in the form of Warrant Certificate attached hereto as Exhibit A as adjusted as herein provided, for the number of Warrant Shares in respect of which such Warrants are then exercised. Payment of the aggregate Exercise Price shall be made (i) in cash or by certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company, (ii) through the surrender of debt or preferred equity securities of the Company having a principal amount or liquidation preference, as the

A-2

case may be, equal to the aggregate Exercise Price to be paid (the Company will pay the accrued interest or dividends on such surrendered debt or preferred equity securities in cash at the time of surrender notwithstanding the stated terms thereof), or (iii) in the manner provided in the first paragraph of this Section 5.

Subject to the provisions of Section 6 hereof, upon such surrender of Warrants and payment of the Exercise Price the Company shall issue and cause to be delivered with all reasonable dispatch to or upon the written order of the holder and in such name or names as the Warrant holder may designate, a certificate or certificates for the number of full Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of such Warrants together with cash as provided in Section 11; provided, however, that if any consolidation, merger or lease or sale of assets is proposed to be effected by the Company as described in subsection (j) of Section 10 hereof, or a tender offer or an exchange offer for shares of Common Stock of the Company shall be made, upon such surrender of Warrants and payment of the Exercise Price as aforesaid, the Company shall, as soon as possible, but in any event not later than two business days thereafter, issue and cause to be delivered the full number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of such Warrants in the manner described in this sentence together with cash as provided in Section 11. Such certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have been issued and any person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such Warrant Shares as of the date of the surrender of such Warrants and payment of the Exercise Price.

The Warrants shall be exercisable, at the election of the holders thereof, either in full or from time to time in part and, in the event that a certificate evidencing Warrants is exercised in respect of fewer than all of the Warrant Shares issuable on such exercise at any time prior to the date of expiration of the Warrants, a new certificate evidencing the remaining Warrant or Warrants will be issued and delivered pursuant to the provisions of this Section and of Section 2 hereof.

All Warrant Certificates surrendered upon exercise of Warrants shall be cancelled and disposed of by the Company. The Company shall keep copies of this Agreement and any notices given or received hereunder available for inspection by the holders during normal business hours at its office.

SECTION 6. Payment of Taxes. The Company will pay all documentary stamp taxes attributable to the initial issuance of Warrant Shares upon the exercise of Warrants; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax or taxes which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue of any Warrant Certificates or any certificates for Warrant Shares in a name other than that of the registered holder of a Warrant Certificate surrendered upon the exercise of a Warrant, and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such Warrant Certificates unless or until the person or persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.

SECTION 7. Mutilated or Missing Warrant Certificates. In case any of the Warrant Certificates shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company may in its discretion issue, in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of the mutilated Warrant Certificate, or in lieu of and substitution for the Warrant Certificate lost, stolen or destroyed, a new Warrant Certificate of like tenor and representing an equivalent number of Warrants, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction of such Warrant Certificate and indemnity, if requested, also reasonably satisfactory to it. Applicants for such substitute Warrant Certificates shall also comply with such other reasonable regulations and pay such other reasonable charges as the Company may prescribe.

SECTION 8. Reservation of Warrant Shares. The Company will at all times reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued Common

A-3

Stock or its authorized and issued Common Stock held in its treasury, for the purpose of enabling it to satisfy any obligation to issue Warrant Shares upon exercise of Warrants, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock which may then be deliverable upon the exercise of all outstanding Warrants.

The Company or, if appointed, the transfer agent for the Common Stock (the “Transfer Agent”) and every subsequent transfer agent for any shares of the Company’s capital stock issuable upon the exercise of any of the rights of purchase aforesaid will be irrevocably authorized and directed at all times to reserve such number of authorized shares as shall be required for such purpose. The Company will keep a copy of this Agreement on file with the Transfer Agent and with every subsequent transfer agent for any shares of the Company’s capital stock issuable upon the exercise of the rights of purchase represented by the Warrants. The Company will furnish such Transfer Agent a copy of all notices of adjustments and certificates related thereto, transmitted to each holder pursuant to Section 12 hereof.

Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment pursuant to Section 10 hereof to reduce the Exercise Price below the then par value (if any) of the Warrant Shares, the Company will take any corporate action which may, in the opinion of its counsel (which may be counsel employed by the Company), be necessary in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares at the Exercise Price as so adjusted.

The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon exercise of Warrants will, upon issue, be fully paid, nonassessable, free of preemptive rights and free from all taxes, liens, charges and security interests with respect to the issue thereof.

SECTION 9. Obtaining Stock Exchange Listings. The Company will from time to time take all action which may be necessary so that the Warrant Shares, immediately upon their issuance upon the exercise of Warrants, will be listed on the principal securities exchanges and markets within the United States of America, if any, on which other shares of Common Stock are then listed.

SECTION 10. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Warrant Shares Issuable. The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of each Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of the events enumerated in this Section 10, provided however in any event, the Exercise Price may not be adjusted below the par value of the Common Stock. For purposes of this Section 10, “Common Stock” means shares now or hereafter authorized of any class of ordinary shares of the Company and any other stock of the Company, however designated, that has the right (subject to any prior rights of any class or series of preferred stock) to participate in any distribution of the assets or earnings of the Company without limit as to per share amount. For purposes of determining any adjustments to the number of Warrant Shares issuable under this Section 10(m), the Exercise Price shall be calculated to 10 decimal places even though the actual Exercise Price may not be reduced below the par value of the Common Stock.

(a) Adjustment for Change in Capital Stock.

If the Company:

(1) pays a dividend or makes a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of its Common Stock;

(2) subdivides its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares;

A-4

(3) combines its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares;

(4) makes a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of its capital stock other than Common Stock or preferred stock; or

(5) issues by reclassification of its Common Stock any shares of its capital stock; then the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such action shall be proportionately adjusted so that the holder of any Warrant thereafter exercised may receive the aggregate number and kind of shares of capital stock of the Company which he would have owned immediately following such action if such Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to such action.

The adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date in the case of a dividend or distribution and immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification.

If after an adjustment a holder of a Warrant upon exercise of it may receive shares of two or more classes of capital stock of the Company, the Company shall determine the allocation of the adjusted Exercise Price between the classes of capital stock. After such allocation, the exercise privilege and the Exercise Price of each class of capital stock shall thereafter be subject to adjustment on terms comparable to those applicable to Common Stock in this Section.

Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event listed above shall occur.

(b) Adjustment for Rights Issue.

If the Company distributes any rights, options or warrants to any holders of its Common Stock entitling them for a period expiring within 60 days after the record date mentioned below to purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share less than the current market price per share on that record date, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted in accordance with the formula:


						N × P
E^’	=	E	x	O	+	M
				O + N

where:

E’ = the adjusted Exercise Price.

E = the current Exercise Price.

O = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the record date.

N = the number of additional shares of Common Stock offered.

P = the offering price per share of the additional shares.

M = the current market price per share of Common Stock on the record date.

The adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such rights, options or warrants are issued and shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive the rights, options or warrants. If at the end of the period during which

A-5

such rights, options or warrants are exercisable, not all rights, options or warrants shall have been exercised, the Exercise Price shall be immediately readjusted to what it would have been if “N” in the above formula had been the number of shares actually issued.

If the Company distributes to any holders of its Common Stock any of its assets (including but not limited to cash), debt securities, preferred stock, or any rights or warrants to purchase debt securities, preferred stock, assets or other securities of the Company, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted in accordance with the formula:


		E’ = E ×		M - F

				M


where:

E’	=	the adjusted Exercise Price.

E	=	the current Exercise Price.

M	=	the current market price per share of Common Stock on the record date mentioned below.

F	=	the fair market value on the record date of the assets, securities, rights or warrants applicable to one share of Common Stock. The Board of Directors shall determine the fair market value.

The adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive the distribution.

This subsection does not apply to rights, options or warrants referred to in subsection (b) of this Section 10.

(d) Current Market Price.

In subsections (b) and (c) of this Section 10 the current market price per share of Common Stock on any date is the average of the Quoted Prices of the Common Stock for 30 consecutive trading days commencing 45 trading days before the date in question. The “Quoted Price” of the Common Stock is the last reported sales price of the Common Stock as reported by NASDAQ, National Market System, or if the Common Stock is listed on a securities exchange, the last reported sales price of the Common Stock on such exchange which shall be for consolidated trading if applicable to such exchange, or if neither so reported or listed, the last reported bid price of the Common Stock. In the absence of one or more such quotations, the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine the current market price on the basis of such quotations as it in good faith considers appropriate.

(e) When De Minimis Adjustment May Be Deferred.

No adjustment in the Exercise Price need be made unless the adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in the Exercise Price. Any adjustments that are not made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment.

A-6

All calculations under this Section shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be.

(f) When No Adjustment Required.

No adjustment need be made for a transaction referred to in subsections (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 10 if Warrant holders are to participate in the transaction on a basis and with notice that the Board of Directors determines to be fair and appropriate in light of the basis and notice on which holders of Common Stock participate in the transaction.

No adjustment need be made for rights to purchase Common Stock pursuant to a Company plan for reinvestment of dividends or interest.

No adjustment need be made for a change in the par value or no par value of the Common Stock.

To the extent the Warrants become convertible into cash, no adjustment need be made thereafter as to the cash. Interest will not accrue on the cash.

(g) Notice of Adjustment.

Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted, the Company shall provide the notices required by Section 13 hereof.

(h) Voluntary Reduction.

The Company from time to time may reduce the Exercise Price by any amount for any period of time if the period is at least 20 days and if the reduction is irrevocable during the period; provided, however, that in no event may the Exercise Price be less than the par value of a share of Common Stock.

Whenever the Exercise Price is reduced, the Company shall mail to Warrant holders a notice of the reduction. The Company shall mail the notice at least 15 days before the date the reduced Exercise Price takes effect. The notice shall state the reduced Exercise Price and the period it will be in effect.

A reduction of the Exercise Price does not change or adjust the Exercise Price otherwise in effect for purposes of subsections (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 10.

(i) Notice of Certain Transactions.

If:

(1) the Company takes any action that would require an adjustment in the Exercise Price pursuant to subsections (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 10 and if the Company does not arrange for Warrant holders to participate pursuant to subsection (f) of this Section 10;

(2) the Company takes any action that would require a supplemental Warrant Agreement pursuant to subsection (j) of this Section 10; or

(3) there is a liquidation or dissolution of the Company,

A-7

the Company shall mail to Warrant holders a notice stating the proposed record date for a dividend or distribution or the proposed effective date of a subdivision, combination, reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, lease, liquidation or dissolution. The Company shall mail the notice at least 15 days before such date. Failure to mail the notice or any defect in it shall not affect the validity of the transaction.

(j) Reorganization of Company.

If the Company consolidates or merges with or into, or transfers or leases all or substantially all its assets to, any person, upon consummation of such transaction the Warrants shall automatically become exercisable for the kind and amount of securities, cash or other assets which the holder of a Warrant would have owned immediately after the consolidation, merger, transfer or lease if the holder had exercised the Warrant immediately before the effective date of the transaction. Concurrently with the consummation of such transaction, the corporation formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger if other than the Company, or the person to which such sale or conveyance shall have been made, shall enter into a supplemental Warrant Agreement so providing and further providing for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practical to the adjustments provided for in this Section. The successor Company shall mail to Warrant holders a notice describing the supplemental Warrant Agreement.

If the issuer of securities deliverable upon exercise of Warrants under the supplemental Warrant Agreement is an affiliate of the formed, surviving, transferee or lessee corporation, that issuer shall join in the supplemental Warrant Agreement.

If this subsection (j) applies, subsections (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 10 do not apply.

(k) Company Determination Final.

Any determination that the Company or the Board of Directors must make pursuant to subsection (a), (c), (d), (e) or (f) of this Section 10 is conclusive.

(l) When Issuance or Payment May Be Deferred.

In any case in which this Section 10 shall require that an adjustment in the Exercise Price be made effective as of a record date for a specified event, the Company may elect to defer until the occurrence of such event (i) issuing to the holder of any Warrant exercised after such record date the Warrant Shares and other capital stock of the Company, if any, issuable upon such exercise over and above the Warrant Shares and other capital stock of the Company, if any, issuable upon such exercise on the basis of the Exercise Price and (ii) paying to such holder any amount in cash in lieu of a fractional share pursuant to Section 11; provided, however, that the Company shall deliver to such holder a due xxxx or other appropriate instrument evidencing such holder’s right to receive such additional Warrant Shares, other capital stock and cash upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment.

(m) Adjustment in Number of Shares.

Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 10, each Warrant outstanding prior to the making of the adjustment in the Exercise Price shall thereafter evidence the right to receive upon payment of the adjusted Exercise Price that number of shares of Common Stock (calculated to the nearest hundredth) obtained from the following formula:

A-8


		N’ = N x		E

				E’


where:

N’	=	the adjusted number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of a Warrant by payment of the adjusted Exercise Price.

N	=	the number or Warrant Shares previously issuable upon exercise of a Warrant by payment of the Exercise Price prior to adjustment.

E’	=	the adjusted Exercise Price.

E	=	the Exercise Price prior to adjustment.

(n) Form of Warrants.

Irrespective of any adjustments in the Exercise Price or the number or kind of shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants, Warrants theretofore or thereafter issued may continue to express the same price and number and kind of shares as are stated in the Warrants initially issuable pursuant to this Agreement.

SECTION 11. Fractional Interests. The Company shall not be required to issue fractional Warrant Shares on the exercise of Warrants. If more than one Warrant shall be presented for exercise in full at the same time by the same holder, the number of full Warrant Shares which shall be issuable upon the exercise thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of Warrant Shares purchasable on exercise of the Warrants so presented. If any fraction of a Warrant Share would, except for the provisions of this Section 11, be issuable on the exercise of any Warrants (or specified portion thereof), the Company shall pay an amount in cash equal to the Exercise Price on the day immediately preceding the date the Warrant is presented for exercise, multiplied by such fraction.

SECTION 12. Notices to Warrant Holders. Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to Section 10, the Company shall promptly thereafter (i) cause to be delivered to the Company a certificate of a firm of independent public accountants of recognized standing selected by the Board of Directors of the Company (who may be the regular auditors of the Company) setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculations are based and setting forth the number of Warrant Shares (or portion thereof) issuable after such adjustment in the Exercise Price, upon exercise of a Warrant and payment of the adjusted Exercise Price, and (ii) cause to be given to each of the registered holders of the Warrant Certificates at his address appearing on the Warrant register written notice of such adjustments and a copy of the certificate referred to in clause (i) of this Section 12 by first-class mail, postage prepaid. Where appropriate, such notice may be given in advance and included as a part of the notice required to be mailed under the other provisions of this Section 12.

In case:

(a) the Company shall authorize the issuance to all holders of shares of Common Stock of rights, options or warrants to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock or of any other subscription rights or warrants; or

(b) the Company shall authorize the distribution to all holders of shares of Common Stock of evidences of its indebtedness or assets (other than cash dividends or cash distributions

A-9

payable out of consolidated earnings or earned surplus or dividends payable in shares of Common Stock or distributions referred to in subsection (a) of Section 10 hereof); or
