(b) At the end of each fiscal quarter of FNIS, the Borrower shall determine whether any Restricted Companies that are not currently FNIS Subsidiary Guarantors shall be required, pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.12(a) to become FNIS Subsidiary Guarantors and, within 60 days after the end of such fiscal quarter (or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion), will at the Borrower’s expense, cause any new FNIS Subsidiary Guarantors (each, an “Additional Guarantor”) to duly execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a guaranty substantially in the form of Exhibit I (either directly or via a guaranty supplement) or such other form of guaranty or guaranty supplement to guarantee the Obligations in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and FNIS, it being understood and agreed that FNIS and each Subsidiary that is required to be an

Section 6.13. Designation of Subsidiaries. FNIS may at any time designate any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary or any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that (i) other than in the case of the designation of (x) a Joint Venture in existence on the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date that thereafter becomes a Subsidiary or (y) a Securitization Vehicle (each, an “Excluded Unrestricted Subsidiary”), immediately before and after such designation, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (ii) other than in the case of the designation of a Excluded Unrestricted Subsidiary, immediately after giving effect to such designation, FNIS and its Consolidated Subsidiaries shall be in compliance, on a Pro Forma Basis, with the covenants set forth in Section 7.10 (and, as a condition precedent to the effectiveness of any such designation, FNIS shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the calculations demonstrating such compliance), (iii) neither the Borrower nor any borrower under the FNIS Credit Agreement may be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, (iv) no designation of a Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, other than an Excluded Unrestricted Subsidiary, shall be effective if, immediately after such designation, (1) the Consolidated EBITDA of the Unrestricted Subsidiaries would exceed 10% of the Consolidated EBITDA of the Consolidated Companies for the four fiscal quarter period then most recently ended or (2) the Total Assets of all Unrestricted Subsidiaries would exceed 5% of the Total Consolidated Assets, in each case determined without regard to any Excluded Unrestricted Subsidiary at any time after such Person becomes a Subsidiary, and (v) no Subsidiary may be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if it is a “Restricted Subsidiary” for the purpose of any Permitted Subordinated Indebtedness. The designation of any Subsidiary
A-10
(other than a Securitization Vehicle) as an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall constitute an Investment by the applicable Restricted Companies therein at the date of designation in an amount equal to the net book value (or, in the case of any guarantee or similar Investment, the amount) of the Restricted Companies’ Investments therein. If any Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary on any date after the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date (including by redesignation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary), the Indebtedness of such Person outstanding on such date will be deemed to have been incurred by such Person on such date for purposes of Section 7.3, but will not be considered the sale or issuance of Equity Interests for purposes of Section 7.5.

“Obligations”: (i) in the case of the Borrower, the Borrower Obligations, and (ii) in the case of each FNIS Guarantor, its Guarantor Obligations.
SECTION 2. Guaranty. (a) Each of the FNIS Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Guaranteed Parties and their respective successors, indorsees, transferees and assigns, the prompt and complete payment and performance by the Borrower when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Borrower Obligations.
(b) Anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum liability of each FNIS Guarantor hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall in no event exceed the amount which can be guaranteed by such FNIS Guarantor under applicable federal and state laws relating to the insolvency of debtors (after giving effect to the right of contribution established in Section 3).
(c) Each FNIS Guarantor agrees that the Borrower Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the amount of the liability of such FNIS Guarantor hereunder without impairing the guarantee contained herein or affecting the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder.

(e) No payment made by the Borrower, any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person or received or collected by the Administrative Agent or any Lender from the Borrower, any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of the Borrower Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of any FNIS Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment (other than any payment made by such FNIS Guarantor in respect of the Borrower Obligations or any payment received or collected from such FNIS Guarantor in respect of the Borrower Obligations), remain liable for the Borrower Obligations up to the maximum liability of such FNIS Guarantor hereunder until the Commitments have been terminated and the Borrower Obligations (other than, in each case, indemnities and other contingent obligations not then due and payable) are paid in full and no Letter of Credit shall be outstanding (or have been cash collateralized or otherwise subject to arrangements reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent).

SECTION 3. Right of Contribution. Each FNIS Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder or under the Metavante Guaranty, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor hereunder or thereunder which has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. Each Guarantor’s right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 4 and Section 2.3 of the Metavante Guaranty. The provisions of this Section 3 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any FNIS Guarantor to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and each FNIS Guarantor shall remain liable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for the full amount guaranteed by such FNIS Guarantor hereunder.
SECTION 4. No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment made by any Guarantor hereunder or under the Metavante Guaranty or any set-off or application of funds of any Guarantor by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, no Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Borrower or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender for the payment of the Borrower Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Borrower or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder or under the Metavante Guaranty, until all amounts owing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders by the Borrower on account of the Borrower Obligations (other than, in each case, indemnities and other contingent obligations not then due and payable) are paid in full, no Letter of Credit shall be outstanding and the Commitments are terminated. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Borrower Obligations (other than, in each case, indemnities and other contingent Obligations not then due and payable) shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Administrative Agent in the same form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor to the Administrative Agent, if required), to be applied against the Borrower Obligations, then due in such order as set forth in the Credit Agreement or as set forth in Section 10 hereof or as set forth in Section 6.5 of the Metavante Guaranty (as applicable).
SECTION 5. Amendments, etc. with respect to the Borrower Obligations. Each FNIS Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against any FNIS Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by any FNIS Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Borrower Obligations made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender may be rescinded by the Administrative Agent or such Lender and any of the Borrower Obligations continued, and the Borrower Obligations, or the liability of any other Person upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the
4
Administrative Agent or any Lender, and the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Administrative Agent (or the Required Lenders or all Lenders, as the case may be) may reasonably deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender for the payment of the Borrower Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Borrower Obligations or for the guarantee contained herein or any property subject thereto.
SECTION 6. Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional. Each FNIS Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Borrower Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon the guarantee contained herein or acceptance of the guarantee contained herein; the Borrower Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon the guarantee contained herein; and all dealings between the Borrower and any of the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on the other hand, likewise shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon the guarantees contained herein and the Metavante Guaranty. Each FNIS Guarantor waives diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon the Borrower or any of the Guarantors with respect to the Borrower Obligations. Each FNIS Guarantor understands and agrees that the guarantee contained herein shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to (a) the validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, any of the Borrower Obligations or any other collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, (b) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Borrower or any other Person against the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or (c) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Borrower or such FNIS Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Borrower for the Borrower Obligations, or of such FNIS Guarantor under the guarantee contained herein, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any FNIS Guarantor, the Administrative Agent or any Lender may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Borrower Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve any FNIS Guarantor of
5
any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against any FNIS Guarantor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.
SECTION 7. Reinstatement. The guarantee contained herein shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Borrower Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Borrower or any Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Borrower or any Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.
SECTION 8. Payments; Payments Free and Clear of Taxes. (a) Each FNIS Guarantor hereby guarantees that payments hereunder will be paid to the Administrative Agent without set-off or counterclaim in Dollars at the Funding Office.
(b) Any and all payments by any FNIS Guarantor under this Guaranty or any other Loan Document shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, including the provisions of Section 2.19 of the Credit Agreement (and such FNIS Guarantor shall make such payments of Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes to the extent described in Section 2.19), as though such payments were made by the Borrower.
SECTION 9. Covenants. Each FNIS Guarantor covenants and agrees that, so long as any part of the Guarantor Obligations shall remain unpaid, any Letter of Credit shall be outstanding or not otherwise provided for in full in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall have any Commitment, such FNIS Guarantor will perform and observe, and cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to perform and observe, all of the terms, covenants and agreements set forth in the Loan Documents on its or their part to be performed or observed or that Holdings or the Borrower has agreed to cause such FNIS Guarantor or such Restricted Subsidiaries to perform or observe.
SECTION 10. Application of Proceeds. The Administrative Agent shall apply any proceeds of the guarantee set forth herein in payment of the Obligations. The Administrative Agent shall have absolute discretion as to the time of application of any such proceeds, moneys or balances in accordance with this Guaranty and the Credit Agreement and may do so at such intervals as may be agreed upon by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, or, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, at any time at the Administrative Agent’s election. Subject to the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall apply such proceeds in the following order:
First, to pay incurred and unpaid fees and expenses of the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents;
6
Second, to the Administrative Agent, for application by it towards payment of amounts then due and owing and remaining unpaid in respect of the Obligations, pro rata among the Guaranteed Parties according to the amounts of the Obligations then due and owing and remaining unpaid to the Guaranteed Parties;
Third, to the Administrative Agent, for application by it towards prepayment of the Obligations, pro rata among the Guaranteed Parties according to the amounts of the Obligations then held by the Guaranteed Parties; and
Fourth, any balance remaining after the Obligations shall have been paid in full, no Letters of Credit shall be outstanding and the Commitments shall have terminated shall be paid over to the Borrower or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same.
SECTION 11. Amendments, Release of FNIS Guarantors, etc. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty and no consent to any departure by any FNIS Guarantor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent and the FNIS Guarantors (with the consent of the requisite number of Lenders specified in the Credit Agreement) and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. An FNIS Guarantor (other than FNIS) shall automatically be released from this Guaranty and its obligations hereunder (a) upon consummation of any transaction or designation permitted by the Credit Agreement as a result of which such FNIS Guarantor (i) ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary, (ii) ceases to be a Subsidiary or (iii) becomes a Foreign Subsidiary or a Domestic Subsidiary of a Foreign Subsidiary, in each case to the extent permitted by the Credit Agreement (provided that no such release shall occur if such FNIS Guarantor is a guarantor in respect of Permitted Subordinated Indebtedness) or (b) if FNIS determines that such FNIS Guarantor is no longer required under Section 6.12 of the Credit Agreement to be an “FNIS Subsidiary Guarantor” (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and gives notice to that effect to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent will, at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to such FNIS Guarantor such documents as the Borrower shall reasonably request to evidence the release of such FNIS Guarantor from its guarantee hereunder pursuant to this Section 11; provided that the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent a written request therefor and a certificate of the Borrower to the effect that the transaction, designation or determination, as the case may be, is in compliance with the Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent shall be authorized to rely on any such certificate without independent investigation.
SECTION 12. Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon the Administrative Agent or any FNIS Guarantor hereunder shall be effected in the manner provided for in Section 10.2 of the Credit Agreement; provided that any such notice, request or demand to or upon any FNIS Guarantor shall be addressed to such FNIS Guarantor in care of FNIS at the address specified in Section 11.02 of the FNIS Credit Agreement.
SECTION 13. No Waiver by Course of Conduct; Cumulative Remedies. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant
7
to Section 11), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Administrative Agent or such Lender would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.
SECTION 14. Enforcement Expenses; Indemnification. (a) Each FNIS Guarantor agrees to pay or reimburse each Lender and the Administrative Agent for all its costs and expenses incurred in collecting against such FNIS Guarantor under the guarantee contained herein or otherwise enforcing or preserving any rights under this Guaranty and the other Loan Documents to which such FNIS Guarantor is a party, including, without limitation, the fees and disbursements of counsel (including the allocated fees and expenses of in-house counsel) to each Lender and of counsel to the Administrative Agent (to the same extent the Borrower would be required to do so pursuant to Section 10.5 of the Credit Agreement).
(b) Each FNIS Guarantor agrees to pay, indemnity and hold each Lender and the Administrative Agent harmless from, any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, any and all stamp, excise, sales or other taxes which may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Guaranty (to the same extent the Borrower would be required to do so pursuant to Section 10.5 of the Credit Agreement).
(c) Each FNIS Guarantor agrees to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender and the Administrative Agent and their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates, trustees, agents and controlling persons harmless from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Guaranty (to the same extent the Borrower would be required to do so pursuant to Section 10.5 of the Credit Agreement).
(d) The agreements in this Section 14 shall survive repayment of the Obligations and all other amounts payable under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
SECTION 15. Successors and Assigns. This Guaranty shall be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of each FNIS Guarantor and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their successors and assigns; provided that no FNIS Guarantor may assign, transfer or delegate any of its rights or obligations under this Guaranty without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.
8
SECTION 16. Set-Off. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, without notice to any FNIS Guarantor, any such notice being expressly waived by each FNIS Guarantor to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, to apply to the payment of such Obligations, by setoff or otherwise, any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender, any affiliate thereof or any of their respective branches or agencies to or for the credit or the account of such FNIS Guarantor. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the relevant FNIS Guarantor and the Administrative Agent after any such application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such application.
SECTION 17. Counterparts. This Guaranty may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Guaranty on any number of separate counterparts (including by telecopy, pdf or e-mail), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.
SECTION 18. Severability. Any provision of this Guaranty which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating 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.
SECTION 19. Section Headings. The Section headings used in this Guaranty are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction hereof or be taken into consideration in the interpretation hereof.
SECTION 20. Integration. This Guaranty and the other Loan Documents represent the agreement of the FNIS Guarantors, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Administrative Agent or any Lender relative to subject matter hereof and thereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents.

(c) Subject to Section 4 of the Guaranty, the undersigned hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that in the event any payment shall be required to be made to the Administrative Agent or any Guaranteed Party under this Guaranty Supplement, the Guaranty or any other guaranty, the undersigned will contribute, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, such amounts to each other Guarantor so as to maximize the aggregate amount paid to the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Parties under or in respect of the Loan Documents.
(d) The undersigned hereby agrees that any Indebtedness owed by it to another Loan Party shall be subordinated to the Guarantor Obligations of the undersigned and that any Indebtedness owed to it by another Loan Party shall be subordinated to the Guarantor Obligations of such other Loan Party, it being understood that the undersigned or such other Loan Party, as the case may be, may make payments on such intercompany Indebtedness unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
Section 2. Guarantor Obligations Under the Guaranty. The undersigned hereby agrees, as of the date first above written, to be bound as a FNIS Guarantor by all of the terms and conditions of the Guaranty to the same extent as each of the other FNIS Guarantors thereunder.

SUBORDINATION TERMS
Section 1. Agreement to Subordinate. The Company’s obligations to [INSERT NAME OF LENDER] (the “Subordinated Lender”) under this [INSERT NAME OF DOCUMENT] (the “Subordinated Obligations”) are subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in [this Note/Instrument], to the prior payment of all Senior Debt. “Senior Debt” shall include the Obligations (as defined in the Credit Agreement dated as of November 1, 2007 (as in effect from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) among Metavante Technologies, Inc., Metavante Corporation, the several banks and other financial institutions or entities from time to time parties thereto, Xxxxxx Commercial Paper Inc. and Xxxxx Financial Corporation, as documentation agents, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Senior Funding Inc., as syndication agent, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”)), and “Senior Lenders” means the holders from time to time of the Senior Debt. The subordination provisions of [this Note/Instrument] are for the benefit of and enforceable by the Senior Lenders.
Section 2. Liquidation, Dissolution, Bankruptcy. Upon any payment or distribution of the assets of the Company to creditors upon a total or partial liquidation or a total or partial dissolution of the Company or in a bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding relating to the Company or its property:
(1) the Senior Lenders are entitled to receive payment in full in cash of all Senior Debt, including all interest accrued or accruing on the Senior Debt after the commencement of any bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or similar case or proceeding at the contract rate (including, without limitation, any contract rate applicable upon default) specified in the Credit Agreement, whether or not the claim for the interest is allowed or allowable as a claim in the case or proceeding with respect to the Senior Debt (only such payment constituting “payment in full”) before the Subordinated Lender will be entitled to receive any payment of principal of or interest on the Subordinated Obligations (except for payments made in permitted junior securities or from a satisfaction and discharge or defeasance trust); and
(2) until the Senior Debt is paid in full, any payment or distribution to which the Subordinated Lender would be entitled but for these subordination provisions shall instead be made to the Senior Lenders as their interests may appear.
Section 3. Default on Senior Debt. (a) The Company shall not pay the principal of or interest on the Subordinated Obligations (“pay the Subordinated Obligations”) if either of the following occurs (each a “Payment Default”) (i) at the time any Senior Debt has not been paid in full in cash when due, whether at maturity, upon acceleration, or otherwise, and the default has not been cured or waived or (ii) any other default on the Senior Debt occurs and the maturity of the Senior Debt is accelerated in accordance with its terms, unless such acceleration has been rescinded or such Senior Debt has been paid in full in cash.
(b) During the continuance of any default other than a Payment Default with respect to any Senior Debt pursuant to which the maturity thereof may be accelerated immediately without further notice (except any notice that may be required to effect acceleration) or upon the expiration of a grace period, the Company may not pay the Subordinated Obligations for a period (a “Payment Blockage Period”)
(1) commencing upon the receipt by the Company of written notice of default from the Administrative Agent specifying an election to effect a Payment Blockage Period (a “Blockage Notice”) and
(2) ending 179 days thereafter (or earlier if the Payment Blockage Period is terminated) (i) by written notice to the Company from the Administrative Agent, (ii) by repayment in full of such Senior Debt or (iii) because the default giving rise to the Blockage Notice is no longer continuing.
Subject to the preceding paragraph, unless the Senior Lenders have accelerated the maturity of the Senior Debt, the Company may resume payments on the Subordinated Obligations after the Payment Blockage Period.
(c) Not more than one Blockage Notice may be given in any consecutive 360-day period, irrespective of the number of defaults with respect to the Senior Debt during such period. No default which existed or was continuing on the date of the commencement of any Payment Blockage Period may be made the basis of the commencement of a subsequent Payment Blockage Period by the Senior Lenders, whether or not within a period of 360 consecutive days, unless the default has been cured or waived for a period of not less than 90 consecutive days.
Section 4. When Distribution Must Be Paid Over. If a payment or other distribution is made to the Subordinated Lender that because of these subordination provisions should not have been made to it, the Subordinated Lender shall hold it in trust for the Senior Lenders and pay it over to them as their interests may appear.
2
Section 5. Subrogation. For purposes of subrogation, a distribution made under these subordination provisions to the Senior Lenders which otherwise would have been made to the Subordinated Lender is not, as between the Company and the Subordinated Lender, a payment by the Company on the Senior Debt. After all Senior Debt is paid in full and until the Subordinated Obligations are paid in full, the Subordinated Lender will be subrogated to the rights of the Senior Lenders to receive payments in respect of the Senior Debt.
Section 6. Relative Rights; Subordination Not to Prevent Events of Default or Limit Right to Accelerate. These subordination provisions define the relative rights of the Subordinated Lender and the Senior Lenders and do not impair, as between the Company and the Subordinated Lender, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay principal of and interest on the Subordinated Obligations in accordance with their terms. The failure to make a payment pursuant to the Subordinated Obligations by reason of these subordination provisions does not prevent the occurrence of a Default, nor do these subordination provisions prevent the Subordinated Lender from exercising its available remedies upon a Default, subject to the rights of the Senior Lenders to receive distributions otherwise payable to the Subordinated Lender.
Section 7. Subordination May Not Be Impaired By Company. No right of any Senior Lender to enforce the subordination of the Subordinated Obligations will be impaired by any act or failure to act by the Company or by its failure to comply with [Sections 1–9].
Section 8. Subordinated Lender Entitled to Rely. For the purpose of ascertaining the outstanding amount of the Senior Debt, the Senior Lenders, and all other information relevant to making any payment or distribution to the Senior Lenders pursuant to [Sections 1–9], the Subordinated Lender is entitled to rely upon an order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction in which any proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 2 above are pending, a certificate of the liquidating trustee or other person making a payment or distribution to the Subordinated Lender, or information provided by the Senior Lenders or the Administrative Agent.
Section 9. Reliance by Senior Lenders on Subordination Provisions; No Waiver. (a) The Subordinated Lender acknowledges and agrees that these subordination provisions are, and are intended to be, an inducement and a consideration to each Senior Lender, whether the Senior Debt was created or acquired before or after the incurrence of the Subordinated Obligations, to acquire or to hold the Senior Debt, and each Senior Lender will be deemed conclusively to have relied on these subordination provisions in acquiring and holding such Senior Debt.
3
(b) The Senior Lenders may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to the Subordinated Lender, without incurring any liability or responsibility to the Subordinated Lender, and without impairing the rights of the Senior Lenders under these subordination provisions, do any of the following:
(1) change the manner, place or terms of payment or extend the time of payment of, or renew or alter, the Senior Debt or any instrument evidencing the same or any agreement under which the Senior Debt is outstanding or secured;
(2) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing the Senior Debt;
(3) release any person liable in any manner for the payment of the Senior Debt; or
(4) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Company and any other person.
