(i)
subject to the limited rights of the Second Lien Claimholders under Section 4.1 to make demand for and receive payment of interest in the specific circumstances provided in that Section, the Second Lien Claimholders will not accelerate, make any demand for or accept any payment under the Grantor Guaranties or exercise or seek to exercise any other rights or remedies in respect of the Second Lien Obligations (including set-off) under any Second Lien Credit Documents (including, without limitation, the exercise of any right under any Second Lien Collateral Document to which a Grantor is a party) or institute any action or proceeding with respect to such rights or remedies (including any action of foreclosure).

the Senior Lien Collateral Agent and the Senior Lien Claimholders shall have the exclusive right 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 the Collateral without any consultation with or the consent of the Second Lien Claimholder; provided, that (A) in any Insolvency Proceeding commenced by or against the Issuer or any other Grantor, any Second Lien Claimholder may file a proof of claim or statement of interest with respect to the Second Lien Obligations, (B) any Second Lien Claimholder may take any action (not adverse, as reasonably determined by the Senior Lien Claimholders, to the prior Liens on the Collateral securing the Senior Lien Obligations, or the rights of the Senior Lien Collateral Agent or any Senior Lien Claimholders to exercise remedies in respect thereof and not inconsistent with the term of this Agreement) in order to preserve or protect its Lien on the Collateral, (C) the Second Lien Claimholders shall be entitled to file any necessary responsive or defensive pleadings 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 Second Lien Claimholders, including without limitation any claims secured by the Collateral, if any, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (D) the Second Lien Claimholders shall be entitled to file any pleadings, objections, motions or agreements which assert rights or interests available to unsecured creditors of the Grantors arising under either Bankruptcy Law or applicable non-bankruptcy law, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and (E) the Second Lien Claimholders shall be entitled to file any proof of claim and 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 Second Lien Obligations and the Collateral.

(e)
Each Second Lien Claimholder hereby acknowledges and agrees that no covenant, agreement or restriction contained in the Second Lien Collateral Documents or any other Second Lien Credit Document shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights and remedies of the Senior Lien Collateral Agent or the Senior Lien Claimholders with respect to the Collateral as set forth in this Agreement and the Senior Lien Note Documents.
(f)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Second Lien Credit Documents, no rights or remedies may be enforced, and no notices or demands may be given, with respect to any Senior Lien Primary Assets as a consequence of an Event of Default arising solely under (and as defined in) any cross default provision of the Second Lien Credit Documents by reason of the occurrence of an Event of Default under (and as defined in) Senior Lien Note Agreements, unless such Event of Default has continued without permanent or temporary waiver or cure for more than 180 days.

6.4

The parties further acknowledge and agree that (i) the claims and interests of the 2005 Holders under the 2005 Note Agreement and related Senior Lien Note Documents are substantially different from the claims and interests of the 2006 Holders under the 2006 Note Agreement and related Senior Lien Note Documents and (ii) such claims and interests should be treated as separate classes for purposes of Section 1122 of the Bankruptcy Code. The parties further acknowledge and agree that (i) the claims and interests of the Senior Lien Claimholders under the Senior Lien Note Documents are substantially different from the claims and interests of Second Lien Claimholders under the Second Lien Credit Documents and (ii) such claims and interests should be treated as separate classes for purposes of Section 1122 of the Bankruptcy Code. .

To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, if it is held that the claims of the Senior Lien Claimholders and Second Lien Claimholders in respect of the Collateral constitute only one secured claim (rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims), then the Second Lien Claimholders hereby acknowledge and agree that all distributions shall be made as if there were separate classes of senior and junior secured claims against the Issuer and the Issuer Subsidiaries in respect of the Collateral (with the effect being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the Second Lien Claimholders)), the Senior Lien Claimholders 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 before any distribution is made in respect of the claims held by the Second Lien Claimholders, with the Second Lien Claimholders hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the Senior Lien Claimholders amounts otherwise received or receivable by them to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing the claim or recovery of the Second Lien Claimholders.
(b)
Each Second Lien Claimholder acknowledges and agrees that (i) the grants of Liens to each of the Senior Interactive Agent and the Second Interactive Agent pursuant to the Security Documents defined in the Senior Interactive Note Agreement or the Second Interactive Note Agreement, respectively, constitute separate and distinct grants of Liens and (ii) because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Senior Lien Primary Assets, the Second Lien Obligations are fundamentally different from the Obligations defined in the Senior Interactive Note Agreement or the Second Interactive Note Agreement, respectively, and must be separately classified in any plan of reorganization 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 Senior Interactive Holders and the Second Interactive Holders in respect of the Senior Lien Primary Assets constitute only one secured claim (rather than separate classes of secured claims), then the Second Lien Claimholders hereby acknowledge and agree that all distributions shall be made as if there were separate classes of secured claims against the Issuer and the Issuer Subsidiaries in respect of the Senior Lien Primary Assets (with the effect being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the Senior Lien Primary Assets is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the Second Lien Claimholders)), each Senior Lien Claimholder 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 before any distribution is made in respect of the claims held by the Second Lien Claimholders, with the Second Lien Claimholders hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the Senior Lien Claimholders amounts otherwise received or receivable by them to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing the claim or recovery of the Second Lien Claimholders.
6.7
Avoidance Issues. If any Secured Note Claimholder is required in any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise to disgorge, turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of any Grantor, because such amount was avoided or ordered to be paid or disgorged for any reason, including without limitation because it was found to be a fraudulent or preferential transfer, any Recovery, whether received as proceeds of security, enforcement of any right of set-off or otherwise, then the claims of the Secured Note Claimholders shall be reinstated pursuant to Section 8.18.

6.9
Post-Petition Interest.
No Second Lien Claimholder shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the Senior Lien Collateral Agent or any Senior Lien Claimholder for allowance in any Insolvency Proceeding of Senior Lien Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses and other amounts that are allowable under Section 506(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, to the extent of the value of the Senior Lien Claimholder’s Lien, without regard to the existence of the Liens of the Second Lien Claimholders on the Collateral.

This is a continuing agreement of lien subordination and intercreditor agreement and the Senior Lien Claimholders may continue, at any time and without notice to the Second Lien Claimholder subject to the Second Lien Credit Documents, to extend credit and other financial accommodations and lend monies to or for the benefit of the Issuer or any Grantor constituting Senior Lien Obligations in reliance hereof. The Second Lien Claimholders hereby waive any right they 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 Insolvency Proceeding. 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 Issuer or any other Grantor shall include the Issuer or such Grantor as debtor and debtor-in-possession and any receiver, assignee for the benefit of creditors, trustee or other successor for the Issuer or any other Grantor (as the case may be) in any Insolvency Proceeding.

8.5
Subrogation. The Second Lien Claimholders hereby defer enforcement of any rights of subrogation that they may acquire as a result of any payment hereunder until the Discharge of Senior Lien Obligations has occurred. Upon Discharge of the Senior Lien Obligations, the Second Lien Claimholders shall be entitled to enforce rights of subrogation in respect of the rights of the Senior Lien Claimholders under the Senior Lien Note Documents to receive payments and distributions of cash, property and securities applicable to the Senior Lien Obligations to the extent that distributions otherwise payable to the Second Lien Claimholders have been applied to the Discharge of the Senior Lien Obligations, until all amounts payable under the Second Lien Obligations are paid in full. For purposes of such subrogation, no payments or distributions to the Senior Lien Claimholders of any cash, property or securities to which the Second Lien Claimholders would be entitled pursuant to the except for the provisions of this Agreement, and no payment pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement to the Senior Lien Claimholders by the Second Lien Claimholders, shall, as among the Issuer and its creditors (other than the Senior Lien Claimholders), be treated as a payment or distribution by the Issuer to or on account of the Senior Lien Obligations. If the Issuer fails to make any payment on the Second Lien Obligations by reason of any provision contained in this Agreement, such failure shall, notwithstanding such provision, constitute a default with respect to the Second Lien Obligations if and to the extent such failure would otherwise constitute such a default in accordance with the terms of the Second Lien Obligations.
8.6
Application of Payments. All payments received by the Senior Lien Collateral Agent or the Senior Lien Claimholders may be applied, reversed and reapplied, in whole or in part, to such part of the Senior Lien Obligations provided for in the Senior Lien Note Documents. The Second Lien Claimholders assent to any extension or postponement of the time of payment of the Senior Lien Obligations or any part thereof and to any other indulgence or forbearance with respect thereto, to any substitution, exchange or release of any security which may at any time secure any part of the Senior Lien Obligations and to the addition or release of any other Person primarily or secondarily liable therefor.
8.7
