So long as the Discharge of ABL Obligations and the Discharge of Term Loan Obligations have not occurred, whether or not any Insolvency Proceeding has been commenced by or against the Company or any other Obligor, the ABL Collateral Agent, the ABL Secured Parties, the Term Loan Collateral Agent and the Term Loan Secured Parties, each acknowledge and agree that the Company shall not, and shall not permit any other Obligor to:

(2) will not contest, protest or object to any foreclosure proceeding or action brought by the ABL Collateral Agent or any ABL Secured Party or any other exercise by the ABL Collateral Agent or any ABL Secured Party of any rights and remedies relating to the ABL First Lien Collateral, whether under the ABL Loan Documents or otherwise; and

(b) Until the Discharge of ABL Obligations has occurred, whether or not any Insolvency Proceeding has been commenced by or against the Company or any other Obligor, the ABL Collateral Agent and the ABL Secured Parties shall have the exclusive right, subject to Section 3.1(a), to enforce rights, exercise remedies (including set-off, recoupment and the right to credit bid their debt) and, subject to Section 5.1, in connection therewith (including voluntary Dispositions of ABL First Lien Collateral by the respective Obligors after an ABL Default) make determinations regarding the release, disposition, or restrictions with respect to the ABL First Lien Collateral without any consultation with or the consent of the Term Loan Collateral Agent or any Term Loan Secured Party; provided, however, that the Lien securing the Term Loan Obligations shall remain on the proceeds (other than those properly applied to the ABL Obligations) of such ABL First Lien Collateral released or disposed of, subject to the relative priorities described in Section 2. In exercising rights and remedies with respect to the ABL First Lien Collateral, the ABL Collateral Agent and the ABL Secured Parties may enforce the provisions of the applicable ABL Loan Documents and exercise remedies thereunder, all in such order and in such manner as they may determine in their sole discretion. Such exercise and enforcement shall include the rights of an agent appointed by them to sell or otherwise dispose of the ABL First Lien Collateral upon foreclosure, to incur reasonable expenses in connection with such sale or disposition, and to exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured creditor under the UCC and of a secured creditor under the Bankruptcy Laws of any applicable jurisdiction.

(10) engage consultants, valuation firms, investment bankers, and perform or engage third parties to perform audits, examinations, and appraisals of the ABL First Lien Collateral or the Term Loan First Lien Collateral for the sole purpose of valuing such collateral and not for the purpose of marketing or conducting a disposition of such collateral

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, unless and until the Discharge of ABL Obligations has occurred, except as expressly provided in Sections 3.1(a), 6.3(c)(1) and this Section 3.1(c), the sole right of the Term Loan Collateral Agent or any Term Loan Secured Party with respect to the ABL First Lien Collateral is to hold a Lien (if any) on such ABL First Lien Collateral pursuant to the applicable Term Loan 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 ABL Obligations has occurred.

(d) Subject to Sections 3.1(a) and (c), Section 3.3 and Section 6.3(c)(1):

(1) the Term Loan Collateral Agent, for itself and/or on behalf of the other Term Loan Secured Parties, agrees that it will not take any action that would hinder any exercise of remedies under the ABL Loan Documents or that is otherwise prohibited hereunder, including any sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of any ABL First Lien Collateral, whether by foreclosure or otherwise;

(2) the Term Loan Collateral Agent, for itself and/or on behalf of the other Term Loan Secured Parties, hereby waives any and all rights the Term Loan Collateral Agent and the respective Term Loan Secured Parties, as applicable, may have as a junior lien creditor or otherwise to object to the manner in which the ABL Collateral Agent or the ABL Secured Parties seek to enforce or collect the ABL Obligations or the Liens on the ABL First Lien Collateral securing the ABL Obligations granted in any of the ABL Loan Documents or undertaken in accordance with this Agreement, regardless of whether any action or failure to act by or on behalf of the ABL Collateral Agent or ABL Secured Parties is adverse to the interests of the Term Loan Secured Parties; and

(3) the Term Loan Collateral Agent hereby acknowledges and agrees that no covenant, agreement or restriction contained in any Term Loan Document (other than this Agreement) shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights and remedies of the ABL Collateral Agent or the ABL Secured Parties with respect to the enforcement of the Liens on the ABL First Lien Collateral as set forth in this Agreement and the ABL Loan Documents.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Term Loan Collateral Agent and Term Loan Secured Parties may exercise rights and remedies as unsecured creditors against the Company or any other Obligor that has guaranteed or granted Liens to secure the Term Loan Obligations, and the Term Loan Collateral Agent may exercise rights and remedies with respect to the Term Loan First Lien Collateral in accordance with the terms of the Term Loan Documents and applicable law; provided, however, that in the event that the Term Loan Collateral Agent or Term Loan Secured Party becomes a judgment Lien creditor in respect of ABL First Lien Collateral as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor with respect to the Term Loan Obligations, such judgment Lien shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement for all purposes (including in relation to the ABL Obligations) as the other Liens securing the Term Loan Obligations are subject to this Agreement.

(f) Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by the Term Loan Collateral Agent or Term Loan Secured Party of the required payments of interest, principal and other amounts owed in respect of its Term Loan Obligations, so long as such receipt is not the direct or indirect result of the exercise by Term Loan Collateral Agent or such Term Loan Secured Party of rights or remedies as a secured creditor in respect of the ABL First Lien Collateral (including set-off and recoupment) or enforcement in contravention of this Agreement of any Lien held by any of them. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to impair or otherwise adversely affect any rights or remedies the ABL Collateral Agent or the ABL Secured Parties may have against the Obligors under the ABL Loan Documents.

3.3 Exercise of Remedies – Collateral Access Rights.

(b) If the Term Loan Collateral Agent or any of its agents or representatives, or any third party pursuant to any Enforcement undertaken by the Term Loan Collateral Agent or receiver, shall obtain possession or physical control of any item of Term Loan First Lien Collateral (including any contracts, documents, books, records and other information with respect to any Term Loan Mortgaged Real Property), the Term Loan Collateral Agent shall promptly notify in writing the ABL Collateral Agent of that fact and the ABL Collateral Agent shall, within ten (10) Business Days thereafter, notify in writing the Term Loan Collateral Agent or, if applicable, any such third party (at such address to be provided by the Term Loan Collateral Agent, as applicable, in connection with the applicable Enforcement), as to whether the ABL Collateral Agent desires to exercise access rights under this Agreement for any purpose permitted under the ABL Loan Documents (including enforcement of rights and remedies), at which time the parties shall confer in good faith to coordinate with respect to the ABL Collateral Agent’s exercise of such access rights.

(c) The Term Loan Collateral Agent agrees not to commence Enforcement until an Enforcement Notice has been given to the ABL Collateral Agent by the Term Loan Collateral Agent.

(d) If the ABL Collateral Agent or any of its agents or representatives, or any third party pursuant to any Enforcement undertaken by the ABL Collateral Agent or receiver, shall obtain possession or physical control of any item of ABL First Lien Collateral (including any contracts, documents, books, records and other information with respect to the ABL First Lien Collateral or the Term Loan First Lien Collateral), the ABL Collateral Agent shall promptly notify in writing the Term Loan Collateral Agent of that fact and the Term Loan Collateral Agent shall, within ten (10) Business Days thereafter, notify in writing the ABL Collateral Agent or, if applicable, any such third party (at such address to be provided by the ABL Collateral Agent in connection with the applicable Enforcement), as to whether the Term Loan Collateral Agent desires to exercise access rights under this Agreement for any purpose permitted under the Term Loan Documents (including enforcement of rights and remedies), at which time the parties shall confer in good faith to coordinate with respect to the Term Loan Collateral Agent’s exercise of such access rights.

During any such ABL Access Period, the ABL Collateral Agent and its representatives (and persons employed on their behalf), may continue to operate, service, maintain, process and sell the ABL First Lien Collateral, as well as to engage in bulk sales of ABL First Lien Collateral. The ABL Collateral Agent shall (i) take proper care of any Term Loan Mortgaged Real Property that is used by it during the ABL Access Period, (ii) promptly repair and replace any damage (ordinary wear-and-tear excepted) caused by it or its agents, representatives or designees, (iii) comply with all applicable laws in connection with its use or occupancy of the Term Loan Mortgaged Real Property and (iv) leave such Term Loan Mortgaged Real Property in substantially the same condition as it was at the commencement of the ABL Access Period.

Access rights may apply to differing parcels of Term Loan Mortgaged Real Property at differing times (i.e. the Term Loan Collateral Agent may obtain possession of one property at a different time than it obtains possession of other properties), in which case, a differing ABL Access Period may apply to each such property. If the Term Loan Collateral Agent forecloses or otherwise sells any of such Term Loan Mortgaged Real Property, the Term Loan Collateral Agent will notify the buyer thereof of the existence of this Agreement and obtain a written acknowledgement from such buyer, in form and substance satisfactory to the ABL Collateral Agent, that the buyer is acquiring such Term Loan Mortgaged Real Property subject to the access rights of the ABL Collateral Agent under this Section 3.3.

(c) If any Agent takes actual possession of any documentation of an Obligor relating to any Collateral (whether such documentation is in the form of a writing or is stored in any data equipment or data record in the physical possession of such Agent), then upon request of the other Agent and reasonable advance written notice, such Agent will permit the other Agent and its agents, representatives and designees to inspect and copy such documentation.

(d) Subject to Section 4.2, the Term Loan Collateral Agent agrees that prior to the commencement of Enforcement by the ABL Collateral Agent, all funds deposited in a Deposit Account or Securities Account (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any Term Loan First Lien Account) shall be treated as ABL First Lien Collateral, unless, prior to the application of such funds to the ABL Obligations, the ABL Collateral Agent has actual knowledge to the contrary or the Term Loan Collateral Agent has in good faith delivered a written notice to the ABL Collateral Agent notifying the ABL Collateral Agent that Proceeds consisting of Term Loan First Lien Collateral have been (or are to be) deposited in any such Deposit Account or Securities Account (all such deposits being “Term Loan First Lien Collateral Deposits”) and identifying the amount of such Proceeds.

(b) Unless and until the Discharge of Term Loan Obligations has occurred, subject to the terms of, and the rights of the Obligors under the Term Loan Documents, (i) the Term Loan Collateral Agent and the Term Loan Secured Parties shall have the sole and exclusive right, in consultation with and subject to the consent of the Company (unless a Term Loan Default shall have occurred and be continuing and except as otherwise provided in the Term Loan Documents), to adjust settlement for any insurance policy covering the Term Loan First Lien Collateral or the Liens with respect thereto in the event of any loss thereunder or with respect thereto and, in consultation with and subject to the consent of the Company (unless a Term Loan Default shall have occurred and be continuing and except as otherwise provided in the Term Loan Documents), to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding (or any deed in lieu of condemnation) affecting the Term Loan First Lien Collateral; (ii) all proceeds of any such policy and any such award (or any payments with respect to a deed in lieu of condemnation) if in respect of the Term Loan First Lien Collateral and to the extent required by the Term Loan Documents shall be paid to the Term Loan Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Term Loan Secured Parties pursuant to the terms of the Term Loan Documents and after the Discharge of Term Loan Obligations, and subject to the terms of, and the rights of the Obligors under, the ABL Collateral Documents to the ABL Collateral Agent for the benefit of the ABL Secured Parties to the extent required under such ABL Collateral Documents and then, after the Discharge of ABL Obligations, 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, and (iii) if the ABL Collateral Agent or any ABL Secured Party 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 segregate and hold in trust and forthwith pay such proceeds over to the Term Loan Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms of Section 4.2.

(4) modify the definition of “Term” set forth in the ABL Agreement in a manner that would shorten the term or stated date of maturity of the ABL Obligations as in effect on the date hereof.

(4) modify the definition of “Maturity Date” set forth in the Term Loan Agreement in a manner that would shorten the term or stated date of maturity of the Term Loan Obligations as in effect on the date hereof.

provided, however, that in the case of both Sections 5.3(a)(i) and (ii), the holders of such Refinancing debt, either directly or through an agent or representative, bind themselves in an Intercreditor Agreement Joinder or other writing, reasonably acceptable to the Term Loan Collateral Agent and the ABL Collateral Agent and addressed to the Term Loan Collateral Agent and the Term Loan Secured Parties or the ABL Collateral Agent and the ABL Secured Parties, as the case may be, to the terms of this Agreement and any such amendment, supplement, modification or Refinancing shall be substantially in accordance with the provisions of both the ABL Loan Documents and the Term Loan Documents.

(b) The Company agrees that each ABL Collateral Document and each Term Loan Collateral Document granting a security interest in any Collateral to (i) the Term Loan Collateral Agent or the Term Loan Secured Parties to secure the Term Loan Obligations or (ii) the ABL Collateral Agent or the ABL Secured Parties to secure the ABL Obligations, shall include the following language (or language to similar effect approved by both the Term Loan Collateral Agent and the ABL Collateral Agent):

“Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the lien and security interest granted to the [ABL Collateral Agent, Term Loan Collateral Agent or other Person, as applicable] pursuant to this Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy by the [ABL Collateral Agent, Term Loan Collateral Agent or other Person, as applicable] hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of July ___, 2016 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Intercreditor Agreement”), among New Enterprise Stone & Lime Co., Inc., Cortland Capital Market Services, LLC as Term Loan Collateral Agent, PNC Bank, National Association, as ABL Collateral Agent, and certain other persons which may be or become parties thereto or become bound thereto from time to time.

(c) The ABL Collateral Agent and the Term Loan Collateral Agent shall each use its best efforts to notify the other parties of any written amendment or modification to any ABL Loan Document or any Term Loan Document, as applicable, but the failure to do so shall not create a cause of action against the party failing to give such notice or create any claim or right on behalf of any third party or impact the effectiveness of any such amendment or modification. In connection with amendments or modifications permitted by Section 5.3, the ABL Collateral Agent and the Term Loan Collateral Agent, as applicable shall, upon request of the other party, provide copies of all such modifications or amendments and copies of all other relevant documentation to the other Persons.

5.4 Bailees for Perfection.

(a) The ABL Collateral Agent and the Term Loan Collateral Agent, as the case may be, each agree to hold that part of the Collateral (other than the Term Loan Exclusive Real Property) that is in its possession or control (or in the possession or control of its agents or bailees) to the extent that possession or control thereof is taken to perfect a Lien thereon under the UCC (such Collateral being the “Pledged Collateral”) as collateral agent for the ABL Secured Parties and Term Loan Secured Parties, as the case may be, and as bailee for the ABL Collateral Agent or the Term Loan Collateral Agent, as the case may be (such bailment being intended, among other things, to satisfy the requirements of Sections 8-106(d)(3), 8-301(a)(2) and 9-313(c) of the UCC), solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted under the ABL Loan Documents and the Term Loan Documents, as applicable, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.4. Solely with respect to any Deposit Accounts under the control (within the meaning of Section 9-104 of the UCC) of the ABL Collateral Agent, the ABL Collateral Agent agrees to also hold control over such Deposit Accounts as gratuitous agent for the Term Loan Collateral Agent, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.4. Solely with respect to any Deposit Accounts under the control (within the meaning of Section 9-104 of the UCC) of the Term Loan Collateral Agent, the Term Loan Collateral Agent agrees to also hold control over such Deposit Accounts as gratuitous agent for the ABL Collateral Agent, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.4. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any Term Loan Document or ABL Loan Document, to the extent that (i) prior to the Discharge of ABL Obligations, any Obligor is required to deliver to the Term Loan Collateral Agent any Collateral that constitutes ABL First Lien Collateral for purposes of possession and control and is unable to do so as a result of having previously delivered such Collateral to the ABL Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms of the ABL Loan Documents, such Obligor’s obligations with respect to such delivery shall be deemed satisfied by the delivery to the ABL Collateral Agent, acting as a gratuitous bailee of the Term Loan Collateral Agent, and (ii) prior to the Discharge of Term Loan Obligations, any Obligor is required to deliver to the ABL Collateral Agent any Collateral that constitutes Term Loan First Lien Collateral for purposes of possession and control and is unable to do so as a result of having previously delivered such Collateral to the Term Loan Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms of the Term Loan Documents, such Obligor’s obligations with respect to such delivery shall be deemed satisfied by the delivery to the Term Loan Collateral Agent, acting as a gratuitous bailee of the ABL Collateral Agent.

(b) No Person shall have any obligation whatsoever to any other Person to ensure that the Pledged Collateral is genuine or owned by any of the Obligors or to preserve rights or benefits of any Person except as expressly set forth in this Section 5.4. The duties or responsibilities under this Section 5.4 shall be limited solely to holding the Pledged Collateral as bailee (and with respect to Deposit Accounts, agent) in accordance with this Section 5.4 and delivering the Pledged Collateral upon a Discharge of ABL Obligations or Discharge of Term Loan Obligations, as the case may be, as provided in paragraph (d) below.

(c) No Person acting pursuant to this Section 5.4 shall have by reason of the ABL Loan Documents, the Term Loan Documents, this Agreement or any other document, a fiduciary relationship with any other Person with respect to such acts.

(d) Upon the Discharge of ABL Obligations, except as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct or otherwise required by applicable law, the ABL Collateral Agent shall deliver the remaining Pledged Collateral (if any) together with any necessary endorsements without recourse and without any representation or warranty whatsoever, first, to the Term Loan Collateral Agent to the extent the Term Loan Obligations which are secured by such Pledged Collateral remain outstanding, and second, subject to any other intercreditor arrangements between the ABL Collateral Agent and any other Person who has a Lien on any of the ABL First Lien Collateral to secure any obligations owed by any Obligor to such Person, to the Company (in each case, so as to allow such Person to obtain possession or control of such Pledged Collateral). The ABL Collateral Agent further agrees to take all other action reasonably required in connection with the Term Loan Collateral Agent obtaining a first-priority interest in such Pledged Collateral or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

(e) Upon the Discharge of Term Loan Obligations, except as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct or otherwise required by applicable law, the Term Loan Collateral Agent shall deliver the remaining Pledged Collateral (if any), together with any necessary endorsements without recourse and without any representation or warranty whatsoever, first, to the ABL Collateral Agent to the extent any ABL Obligations which are secured by such Pledged Collateral remain outstanding, and second, subject to any other intercreditor arrangements between the Term Loan Collateral Agent and any other Person who has a Lien on any of the Term Loan First Lien Collateral to secure any obligations owing by any Obligor to such Person, to the Company (in each case, so as to allow such Person to obtain possession or control of such Pledged Collateral). The Term Loan Collateral Agent further agrees to take all other action reasonably requested by the ABL Collateral Agent in connection with the ABL Collateral Agent obtaining a first-priority interest in such Pledged Collateral or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

5.5 When Discharge of ABL Obligations and Discharge of Term Loan Obligations Deemed to Not Have Occurred; Refinancing of ABL Obligations and Term Loan Obligations.

(a) If concurrently with the Discharge of ABL Obligations or the Discharge of Term Loan Obligations, the Company (i) enters into any Refinancing of the ABL Obligations or the Term Loan Obligations, as the case may be, which Refinancing is permitted by the Term Loan Documents and the ABL Loan Documents and (ii) delivers to the Term Loan Collateral Agent or ABL Collateral Agent, as appropriate, a notice and an Intercreditor Agreement Joinder in accordance with clause (b) or (c) of this Section 5.5, then such Discharge of ABL Obligations or Discharge of Term Loan Obligations, shall automatically be deemed not to have occurred for all purposes of this Agreement (other than with respect to any actions taken as a result of the occurrence of such first Discharge of ABL Obligations or Discharge of Term Loan Obligations) and the obligations under such Refinancing shall automatically be treated as ABL Obligations or Term Loan Obligations, as the case may be, for all purposes of this Agreement, including for purposes of the Lien priorities and rights in respect of Collateral set forth herein, and the New Agent (as defined below), under such new ABL Loan Documents or the New Representative (as defined below) under such New Term Loan Documents shall be the ABL Collateral Agent or Term Loan Collateral Agent, as applicable, for all purposes of this Agreement.

(b) Upon the Term Loan Collateral Agent’s receipt of a notice, together with an Intercreditor Agreement Joinder, from an authorized officer of the New Agent (as defined below) and the Company stating that the Company has Refinanced ABL Obligations (which notice shall include a complete copy of the relevant new documents and provide the identity of the new agent for such Refinanced ABL Obligations, such agent, the “New Agent”), such New Agent shall automatically be treated as the ABL Collateral Agent for all purposes of this Agreement. The ABL Collateral Agent and the Term Loan Collateral Agent shall promptly (a) enter into such documents and agreements (including amendments or supplements to this Agreement) as the Company or such New Agent shall reasonably request to provide the New Agent the rights contemplated hereby, in each case consistent in all material respects with the terms of this Agreement and (b) deliver, to the extent contemplated by this Agreement, to the New Agent any Pledged Collateral held by it together with any necessary endorsements (or otherwise allow the New Agent to obtain control of such Pledged Collateral). The New Agent shall agree pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement Joinder addressed to the ABL Collateral Agent, Term Loan Collateral Agent, the ABL Secured Parties, and Term Loan Secured Parties, as the case may be, to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.

(c) Upon the ABL Collateral Agent’s receipt of a notice, together with an Intercreditor Agreement Joinder, from an authorized officer of the New Representative (as defined below) and the Company stating that the Company has Refinanced Term Loan Obligations (which notice shall include a complete copy of the relevant new documents and provide the identity of the new representative for such Refinanced Term Loan Obligations, such representative, the “New Representative”), such New Representative shall automatically be treated as the Term Loan Collateral Agent for all purposes of this Agreement. The ABL Collateral Agent and the Term Loan Collateral Agent shall promptly enter into such documents and agreements (including amendments or supplements to this Agreement) as the Company or such New Representative shall reasonably request to provide the New Representative the rights contemplated hereby, in each case consistent in all material respects with the terms of this Agreement (including entering into any collateral documentation reasonably requested in order to effectuate such successor collateral agency with respect to any Collateral). The New Representative shall agree pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement Joinder addressed to the ABL Collateral Agent, Term Loan Collateral Agent, the ABL Secured Parties, and Term Loan Secured Parties, as the case may be, to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.

5.6 Successor Agents. If any successor ABL Collateral Agent or successor Term Loan Collateral Agent is elected or appointed pursuant to the terms of the ABL Loan Documents or the Term Loan Documents, as applicable, then such successor ABL Collateral Agent or successor Term Loan Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall automatically be treated as the ABL Collateral Agent or Term Loan Collateral Agent, as applicable, for all purposes of this Agreement. The successor ABL Collateral Agent or successor Term Loan Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall enter into such documents and agreements (including amendments or supplements to this Agreement) as the Company, the existing ABL Collateral Agent or the existing Term Loan Collateral Agent shall reasonably request in order to provide to the successor ABL Collateral Agent or successor Term Loan Collateral Agent, as applicable, the rights contemplated hereby, in each case consistent in all material respects with the terms of this Agreement. The successor ABL Collateral Agent or successor Term Loan Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall agree pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement Joinder addressed to the existing ABL Collateral Agent or existing Term Loan Collateral Agent, as applicable, to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.

VI. INSOLVENCY PROCEEDINGS.

6.1 Finance and Sale Issues.

(a) Until the Discharge of ABL Obligations has occurred, if the Company or any other Obligor shall be subject to any Insolvency Proceeding and the ABL Collateral Agent shall, acting in accordance with the ABL Loan Documents, agree to permit the use of “Cash Collateral” (as such term is defined in Section 363(a) of the Bankruptcy Code), which constitutes ABL First Lien Collateral securing the ABL Obligations or to permit the Company or any other Obligor to obtain financing, whether from the ABL Secured Parties or any other Person under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar Bankruptcy Law (“DIP Financing”) to the extent such DIP Financing is secured solely by Liens on ABL First Lien Collateral, then the Term Loan Collateral Agent and each Term Loan Secured Party each agrees that it will raise no objection to such Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing so long as such Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing meets the following requirements: (i) it is on commercially reasonable terms, (ii) the Term Loan

Collateral Agent and each Term Loan Secured Party retain the right to object to any ancillary agreements or arrangements regarding the Cash Collateral use or the DIP Financing that are materially prejudicial to their interests in the Term Loan First Lien Collateral, and (iii) the terms of the DIP Financing (A) do not compel the Company to seek confirmation of a specific plan of reorganization for which all or substantially all of the material terms are set forth in the DIP Financing documentation or a related document, (B) do not expressly require the liquidation of the Collateral prior to a default under the DIP Financing documentation or Cash Collateral order, (C) if the ABL Secured Parties retain their Liens on the ABL First Lien Collateral securing the ABL Obligations, the Term Loan Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Term Loan Secured Parties, shall retain an immediately junior Lien on the ABL First Lien Collateral (to the extent such ABL Collateral is Term Loan Collateral), and (D) to the extent that the ABL Collateral Agent is granted an adequate protection lien in connection with such DIP Financing or use of Cash Collateral that constitutes ABL First Lien Collateral, the Term Loan Secured Parties also receive an adequate protection lien on the ABL First Lien Collateral with the same relative priority as set forth in this Agreement. To the extent the Liens on the ABL First Lien Collateral securing the ABL Obligations are subordinated to or pari passu with the Liens securing such DIP Financing which meets the requirements of clauses (i) through (iii) above, the Term Loan Collateral Agent will subordinate any Liens in the ABL First Lien Collateral to the Liens securing such DIP Financing, any adequate protection liens granted to the ABL Secured Parties on the ABL First Lien Collateral, and any “carve out” in favor of fees and expenses of professionals retained by the debtor(s) or creditors’ committee and fees owing to the United States Trustee, as agreed to by the ABL Collateral Agent, and will not request adequate protection or any other relief in connection therewith (except, as expressly agreed by the ABL Collateral Agent or to the extent permitted by Section 6.3) without affecting the subordination provided herein as to other ABL Obligations and Term Loan Obligations. The foregoing shall not prohibit the Term Loan Collateral Agent or any Term Loan Secured Party from objecting to the terms of any DIP Financing to the extent that such DIP Financing is secured by a senior or pari passu Lien on any Term Loan First Lien Collateral.

(b) Until the Discharge of Term Loan Obligations has occurred, if the Company or any other Obligor shall be subject to any Insolvency Proceeding and the Term Loan Collateral Agent shall, acting in accordance with the Term Loan Documents, agree to permit the use of “Cash Collateral” (as such term is defined in Section 363(a) of the Bankruptcy Code), which constitutes Term Loan First Lien Collateral securing the Term Loan Obligations or to permit the Company or any other Obligor to obtain DIP Financing to the extent such DIP Financing is secured solely by Liens on Term Loan First Lien Collateral and/or the Term Loan Exclusive Real Property, then the ABL Collateral Agent and each ABL Secured Party agrees that it will raise no objection to such Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing so long as such Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing meets the following requirements: (i) it is on commercially reasonable terms, (ii) the ABL Collateral Agent and each ABL Secured Party retains the right to object to any ancillary agreements or arrangements regarding the Cash Collateral use or the DIP Financing that are materially prejudicial to their interests in the ABL Collateral, and (iii) the terms of the DIP Financing (A) do not compel the Company to seek confirmation of a specific plan of reorganization for which all or substantially all of the material terms are set forth in the DIP Financing documentation or a related document, (B) do not expressly require the liquidation of the Collateral prior to a default under the DIP Financing documentation or Cash Collateral order, (C) if the Term Loan Secured Parties retain their Liens on the Term Loan First Lien Collateral securing the Term Loan Obligations, the ABL Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of each ABL Secured Party shall retain an immediately junior Lien on the Term Loan First Lien Collateral (to the extent such Term Loan First Lien Collateral is ABL Collateral), and (D) to the extent that the Term Loan Collateral Agent is granted an adequate protection lien in connection with such DIP Financing or use of Cash Collateral that constitutes Term Loan First Lien Collateral, the ABL Secured Parties also receive an adequate protection lien on the Term Loan First Lien Collateral with the same relative priority as set forth in this Agreement. To the extent the Liens on the Term Loan First Lien Collateral securing the Term Loan Obligations are subordinated to or pari passu with the Liens securing such DIP Financing which meets the requirements of clauses (i) through (iii) above, the ABL Collateral Agent and each ABL Secured Party will subordinate any Liens in the Term Loan First Lien Collateral to the Liens securing such DIP Financing, any adequate protection liens granted to the Term Loan Secured Parties on the Term Loan First Lien Collateral, and any “carve out” in favor of fees and expenses of professionals retained by the debtor(s) or creditors’ committee and fees owing to the United States Trustee, as agreed to by the Term Loan Collateral Agent, and will not request adequate protection or any other relief in connection therewith (except, as expressly agreed by the Term Loan Collateral Agent or to the extent permitted by Section 6.3) without affecting the subordination provided herein as to other ABL Obligations and Term Loan Obligations. The foregoing shall not prohibit the ABL Collateral Agent or any ABL Secured Party from objecting to the terms of any DIP Financing to the extent that such DIP Financing is secured by any senior or pari passu Lien on any ABL First Lien Collateral.

(c) The Term Loan Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Term Loan Secured Parties, agrees that it will not oppose, and hereby consents to (i) any sale consented to by the ABL Collateral Agent of any ABL First Lien Collateral pursuant to Section 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision under the law applicable to any Insolvency Proceeding); provided that the order approving such sale states that the Claimholders’ respective Liens shall attach to the proceeds of such sale with the same relative priority as set forth in this Agreement and (ii) any bid by the ABL Collateral Agent on behalf of the ABL Secured Parties with respect to then outstanding ABL Obligations in connection with any such sale or any other sale or other disposition of the ABL First Lien Collateral.

(d) The ABL Collateral Agent agrees, on behalf of the ABL Secured Parties, that it will not oppose, and hereby consents to (i) any sale consented to by the Term Loan Collateral Agent or any Term Loan Secured Party of any Term Loan First Lien Collateral pursuant to Section 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision under the law applicable to any Insolvency Proceeding); provided that the order approving such sale states that the Claimholders’ respective Liens shall attach to the proceeds of such sale with the same relative priority as set forth in this Agreement and (ii) any bid by the Term Loan Collateral Agent or any Term Loan Secured Party with respect to then outstanding Term Loan Obligations in connection with any such sale or any other sale or other disposition of the Term Loan First Lien Collateral.

6.2 Relief from the Automatic Stay.

(a) Until the Discharge of ABL Obligations has occurred, the Term Loan Collateral Agent and each Term Loan Secured Party, agrees that none of them shall seek (or support any other Person seeking) relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency Proceeding in respect of the ABL First Lien Collateral (other than to the extent such relief is required to exercise its rights under Section 3.3), without the prior written consent of the ABL Collateral Agent.

(b) Until the Discharge of Term Loan Obligations has occurred, the ABL Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the ABL Secured Parties agrees that none of them shall seek (or support any other Person seeking) relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency Proceeding in respect of the Term Loan First Lien Collateral (other than to the extent such relief is required to exercise its rights under Section 3.3), without the prior written consent of the Term Loan Collateral Agent.

6.3 Adequate Protection.

(a) The Term Loan Collateral Agent and the Term Loan Secured Parties, each agree that, prior to the Discharge of ABL Obligations, none of them shall contest (or support any other Person contesting):

(1) any request by the ABL Collateral Agent for adequate protection with respect to the ABL First Lien Collateral; or

(2) any objection by the ABL Collateral Agent to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on the ABL Collateral Agent or the ABL Secured Parties claiming a lack of adequate protection with respect to the ABL First Lien Collateral.

(b) The ABL Collateral Agent and the ABL Secured Parties, each agrees that, prior to the Discharge of Term Loan Obligations, none of them shall contest (or support any other Person contesting):

(1) any request by the Term Loan Collateral Agent or any Term Loan Secured Party for adequate protection with respect to the Term Loan First Lien Collateral; or

(2) any objection by the Term Loan Collateral Agent or any Term Loan Secured Party to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on the Term Loan Collateral Agent or any Term Loan Secured Party claiming a lack of adequate protection with respect to the Term Loan Default.

(1) in the event the ABL Collateral Agent or any of the ABL Secured Parties (or any subset thereof) seeks or requests adequate protection in respect of ABL First Lien Collateral and such adequate protection is granted with respect to the ABL First Lien Collateral in the form of additional or replacement collateral (even if such collateral is not of a type which would otherwise have constituted ABL First Lien Collateral) in connection with any Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing or a superpriority claim in connection with any DIP Financing or otherwise, then the Term Loan Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself or any of the Term Loan Secured Parties, may seek or request adequate protection with respect to its interests in such ABL First Lien Collateral (if it is also Term Loan Collateral) in the form of a Lien on the same additional or replacement collateral, or a junior superpriority claim, as applicable, which Lien, or junior superpriority claim, shall be subordinated (except to the extent that such additional or replacement collateral was Term Loan First Lien Collateral (in which case the priorities established by Section 2.1 shall apply)) to the Liens or claims securing the ABL Obligations and such Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing (and all obligations relating thereto) on the same basis as the other Liens of the Term Loan Collateral Agent on ABL First Lien Collateral; and

(2) in the event the Term Loan Collateral Agent or any of the Term Loan Secured Parties (or any subset thereof) seeks or requests adequate protection in respect of Term Loan First Lien Collateral and such adequate protection is granted with respect to the Term Loan First Lien Collateral (if it is also ABL Collateral) in the form of additional or replacement collateral (even if such collateral is not of a type which would otherwise have constituted Term Loan First Lien Collateral), in connection with any Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing or a superpriority claim in connection with any DIP Financing or otherwise, then the ABL Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself or any of the ABL Secured Parties, may seek or request adequate protection with respect to its interests in such Term Loan First Lien Collateral in the form of a Lien on the same additional or replacement collateral, or a junior superpriority claim, as applicable, which Lien or junior superpriority claim shall be subordinated (except to the extent that such additional or replacement collateral was ABL First Lien Collateral (in which case the priorities established by Section 2.1 shall apply)) to the Liens or claims securing the Term Loan Obligations and such Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing (and all obligations relating thereto) on the same basis as the other Liens of the ABL Collateral Agent on the Term Loan First Lien Collateral.

(d) Except as otherwise expressly set forth in Section 6.1 or in connection with the exercise of remedies with respect to (i) the ABL First Lien Collateral, nothing herein shall limit the rights of the Term Loan Collateral Agent or any Term Loan Secured Party from seeking adequate protection with respect to their rights in the Term Loan First Lien Collateral in any Insolvency Proceeding (including adequate protection in the form of a cash payment, periodic cash payments or otherwise) or (ii) the Term Loan First Lien Collateral, nothing herein shall limit the rights of the ABL Collateral Agent or the ABL Secured Parties from seeking adequate protection with respect to their rights in the ABL First Lien Collateral in any Insolvency Proceeding (including adequate protection in the form of a cash payment, periodic cash payments or otherwise).

6.4 Avoidance Issues. If any ABL Secured Party or Term Loan Secured Party is required in any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise to turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of the Company or any other Obligor any amount paid in respect of ABL Obligations or the Term Loan Obligations, as the case may be (a “Recovery”), then such ABL Secured Parties or Term Loan Secured Parties shall be entitled to a reinstatement of ABL Obligations or the Term Loan Obligations, as the case may be, 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.

6.5 Reorganization Securities. If, in any Insolvency Proceeding, debt obligations of the reorganized debtor secured by Liens upon any property of the reorganized debtor are distributed pursuant to a plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan, both on account of ABL Obligations and on account of Term Loan Obligations, then, to the extent the debt obligations distributed on account of the ABL Obligations and on account of the Term Loan Obligations are secured by Liens upon the same property, the provisions of this Agreement will survive the distribution of such debt obligations pursuant to such plan and will apply with like effect to the debt obligations so distributed, to the Liens securing such debt obligations and the distribution of proceeds thereof.

6.6 Post-Petition Interest.

(a) The Term Loan Collateral Agent and the Term Loan Secured Parties each agree that none of them shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the ABL Collateral Agent or any ABL Secured Party for allowance in any Insolvency Proceeding of ABL Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses to the extent of the value of the Lien on the ABL First Lien Collateral securing any ABL Secured Party’s claim, without regard to the existence of the Lien of the Term Loan Collateral Agent on behalf of the Term Loan Secured Parties on the ABL First Lien Collateral.

(b) The ABL Collateral Agent and the ABL Secured Parties each agree that none of them shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the Term Loan Collateral Agent or any Term Loan Secured Party for allowance in any Insolvency Proceeding of Term Loan Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses to the extent of the value of the Lien on the Term Loan First Lien Collateral securing any Term Loan Secured Party’s claim, without regard to the existence of the Lien of the ABL Collateral Agent on behalf of the ABL Secured Parties on the Term Loan First Lien Collateral.

6.7 Waiver – 1111(b)(2) Issues.

(a) The Term Loan Collateral Agent, for itself and/or on behalf of the Term Loan Secured Parties, waives any objection or claim it may hereafter have against any ABL Secured Party arising out of the election by any ABL Secured Party of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code to any claims of such ABL Secured Party in respect of the ABL First Lien Collateral and agrees that in the case of any such election it shall have no claim or right to payment with respect to the ABL First Lien Collateral in or from such Insolvency Proceeding. Any reorganization securities issued with respect to such election shall be allocated solely to the ABL Secured Parties pursuant to Section 6.5 hereof.

(b) The ABL Collateral Agent, for itself and/or on behalf of the ABL Secured Parties, each waives any objection or claim it may hereafter have against any Term Loan Secured Party arising out of the election by any Term Loan Secured Party of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code to any claims of such Term Loan Secured Party in respect of the Term Loan First Lien Collateral and agrees that in the case of any such election it shall have no claim or right to payment with respect to the Term Loan First Lien Collateral in or from such Insolvency Proceeding. Any reorganization securities issued with respect to such election shall be allocated solely to the Term Loan Secured Parties pursuant to Section 6.5 hereof.

6.8 Separate Grants of Security and Separate Classification. The ABL Collateral Agent, on behalf each ABL Secured Party, and the Term Loan Collateral Agent, on behalf of each Term Loan Secured Party, acknowledges and agrees that (a) the grants of Liens pursuant to the ABL Loan Documents and the Term Loan Documents constitute separate and distinct grants of Liens and (b) because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Collateral, the Term Loan Obligations and the ABL Obligations are fundamentally different from each other and must be separately classified in any plan of reorganization or liquidation under the Bankruptcy Code (or other plan of similar effect under any Bankruptcy Law) proposed or adopted in an Insolvency Proceeding. To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, if it is held that the claims of the ABL Secured Parties and the Term Loan Secured Parties in respect of the Collateral constitute only one secured claim (rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims), then the ABL Collateral Agent, on behalf of the ABL Secured Parties, and the Term Loan Collateral Agent, on behalf of each Term Loan Secured Party, hereby acknowledge and agree that all distributions shall be made as if there were separate classes of ABL Obligation claims and Term Loan Obligation claims against the Obligors, with the effect being that, (i) to the extent that the aggregate value of the ABL First Lien Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the Term Loan Collateral Agent on behalf of the Term Loan Secured Parties), the ABL Collateral Agent and the ABL Secured Parties shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them in respect of principal, pre-petition interest and other claims, all amounts owing in respect of post-petition interest that is available from the ABL First Lien Collateral (regardless of whether any such claims may or may not be allowed or allowable in whole or in part as against any Obligor in the applicable Insolvency Proceeding(s) pursuant to Section 506(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise) before any distribution is made in respect of the claims held by the Term Loan Collateral Agent on behalf of the Term Loan Secured Parties, from such ABL First Lien Collateral, with the Term Loan Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Term Loan Secured Parties, hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the ABL Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the ABL Secured Parties, amounts otherwise received or receivable by them from such ABL First Lien Collateral to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing the aggregate recoveries of the Term Loan Secured Parties, and (ii) to the extent that the aggregate value of the Term Loan First Lien Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the ABL Collateral Agent on behalf of the ABL Secured Parties), the Term Loan Collateral Agent and the Term Loan Secured Parties shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them in respect of principal, pre-petition interest and other claims, all amounts owing in respect of post-petition interest that is available from the Term Loan First Lien Collateral (regardless of whether any such claims may or may not be allowed or allowable in whole or in part as against any Obligor in the applicable Insolvency Proceeding(s) pursuant to Section 506(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise) before any distribution is made in respect of the claims held by the ABL Collateral Agent, on behalf of the ABL Secured Parties, from such Term Loan First Lien Collateral, with the ABL Collateral Agent, on behalf of the ABL Secured Parties, hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the Term Loan Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Term Loan Secured Parties, amounts otherwise received or receivable by them from such Term Loan First Lien Collateral to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing the aggregate recoveries of the ABL Secured Parties.

6.9 Enforceability and Continuing Priority. This Agreement shall be applicable both before and after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding and all converted or succeeding cases in respect thereof. Accordingly, the provisions of this Agreement are intended to be and shall be enforceable as a subordination agreement within the meaning of Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.
