The Collateral Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents, attorneys, accountants, appraisers or other experts or advisors, at the expense of the Company, selected by it in good faith as it may reasonably require.

6.3 Other Agreements. The Collateral Trustee has accepted and is bound by the First Lien Security Documents executed by the Collateral Trustee as of the date of this Agreement and, as directed by an Act of Required First Lien Debtholders, the Collateral Trustee shall execute additional First Lien Security Documents delivered to it after the date of this Agreement; provided, however, that such additional First Lien Security Documents do not adversely affect the rights, privileges, benefits and immunities of the Collateral Trustee. The Collateral Trustee will not otherwise be bound by, or be held obligated by, the provisions of any credit agreement, indenture, hedge agreement or other agreement governing First Lien Debt (other than this Agreement and the other First Lien Security Documents).

6.4 Solicitation of Instructions. (a) The Collateral Trustee may at any time solicit written confirmatory instructions, in the form of an Act of Required First Lien Debtholders, an Officer’s Certificate or an order of a court of competent jurisdiction, as to any

action that it may be requested or required to take, or that it may propose to take, in the performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement or the other First Lien Security Documents, and the Collateral Trustee may await receipt of the respective confirmatory instructions before taking the respective such action.

(b) No written direction given to the Collateral Trustee by an Act of Required First Lien Debtholders that in the sole judgment of the Collateral Trustee imposes, purports to impose or might reasonably be expected to impose upon the Collateral Trustee any obligation or liability not set forth in or arising under this Agreement and the other First Lien Security Documents will be binding upon the Collateral Trustee unless the Collateral Trustee elects, at its sole option, to accept such direction.

6.5 Limitation of Liability. The Collateral Trustee will not be responsible or liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it hereunder or under any other First Lien Security Document, except for its own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, in each case as determined by a final, non-appealable order by a court of competent jurisdiction.

6.6 Documents in Satisfactory Form. The Collateral Trustee will be entitled to require that all agreements, certificates, opinions, instruments and other documents at any time submitted to it, including those expressly provided for in this Agreement, be delivered to it in a form and with substantive provisions reasonably satisfactory to it.

6.7 Entitled to Rely. The Collateral Trustee may seek and conclusively rely upon, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, any judicial order or judgment, upon any advice, opinion or statement of legal counsel, independent consultants and other experts selected by it in good faith and upon any certification, instruction, notice or other writing delivered to it by the Company or any other Grantor in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement or delivered to it by any First Lien Representative as to the holders of First Lien Obligations for whom it acts, without being required to determine the authenticity thereof or the correctness of any fact stated therein or the propriety or validity of service thereof. The Collateral Trustee may act in reliance upon any instrument comporting with the provisions of this Agreement or any signature reasonably believed by it to be genuine and may assume that any Person purporting to give notice or receipt or advice or make any statement or execute any document in connection with the provisions hereof or the other First Lien Security Documents has been duly authorized to do so. To the extent an Officer’s Certificate or opinion of counsel is required or permitted under this Agreement to be delivered to the Collateral Trustee in respect of any matter, the Collateral Trustee may rely conclusively on Officer’s Certificate or opinion of counsel as to such matter and such Officer’s Certificate or opinion of counsel shall be full warranty and protection to the Collateral Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it under the provisions of this Agreement and the other First Lien Security Documents, in each case absent manifest error.

6.8 Triggering Event. The Collateral Trustee will not be required to inquire as to the occurrence or absence of any Triggering Event and will not be affected by or required to act upon any notice or knowledge as to the occurrence of any Triggering Event unless and until it is directed by an Act of Required First Lien Debtholders.

6.9 Actions by Collateral Trustee. As to any matter not expressly provided for by this Agreement or the other First Lien Security Documents, the Collateral Trustee will act or refrain from acting as directed by an Act of Required First Lien Debtholders and will be fully protected if it does so, and any action taken, suffered or omitted pursuant to hereto or thereto shall be binding on the holders of First Lien Obligations.

6.10 Security or Indemnity in favor of the Collateral Trustee. The Collateral Trustee will not be required to advance or expend any funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of its duties or the exercise of its powers or rights hereunder unless it has been provided with security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against any and all liability or expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take such action.

6.11 Rights of the Collateral Trustee. In the event of any conflict between any terms and provisions set forth in this Agreement and those set forth in any other First Lien Security Document, the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall supersede and control the terms and provisions of such other First Lien Security Document. In the event there is any bona fide, good faith disagreement between the other parties to this Agreement or any of the other First Lien Security Documents resulting in adverse claims being made in connection with Collateral held by the Collateral Trustee and the terms of this Agreement or any of the other First Lien Security Documents do not unambiguously mandate the action the Collateral Trustee is to take or not to take in connection therewith under the circumstances then existing, or the Collateral Trustee is in doubt as to what action it is required to take or not to take hereunder or under the other First Lien Security Documents, it will be entitled to refrain from taking any action (and will incur no liability for doing so) until directed otherwise in writing by a request signed jointly by the parties hereto entitled to give such direction or by order of a court of competent jurisdiction, provided that the parties hereto acknowledge that the terms of this Agreement are not intended to negate any specific rights of the Company or the other Grantors in any First Lien Debt Document.

any of their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct (in each case as determined by a final, non-appealable order by a court of competent jurisdiction).

(b) Except as provided in Section 6.12(a), the Collateral Trustee will not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder, except to the extent such action or omission constitutes gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct (in each case as determined by a final, non-appealable order by a court of competent jurisdiction) on the part of the Collateral Trustee, for the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title of any Grantor to the Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral. The Collateral Trustee hereby disclaims any representation or warranty to the present and future holders of the First Lien Obligations concerning the perfection of the Liens granted hereunder or in the value of any of the Collateral. The Collateral Trustee will not be responsible for determining whether any given First Lien Obligations are in fact secured pursuant to the various First Lien Security Documents, it being understood that each Secured Party shall be responsible for ascertaining whether its obligations are in fact secured pursuant to the First Lien Security Documents.

6.13 Assumption of Rights, Not Assumption of Duties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein:

(1) each of the parties thereto will remain liable under each of the First Lien Security Documents (other than this Agreement) to the extent set forth therein to perform all of their respective duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Agreement had not be executed;

(2) the exercise by the Collateral Trustee of any of its rights, remedies or powers hereunder will not release such parties from any of their respective duties or obligations under the other First Lien Security Documents; and

(3) the Collateral Trustee will not be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any of the parties thereunder other than the Collateral Trustee.

6.14 No Liability for Clean Up of Hazardous Materials. In the event that the Collateral Trustee is required to acquire title to an asset for any reason, or take any managerial action of any kind in regard thereto, in order to carry out any fiduciary or trust obligation for the benefit of another, which in the Collateral Trustee’s sole discretion may cause the Collateral Trustee to be considered an “owner or operator” under any environmental laws or otherwise cause the Collateral Trustee to incur, or be exposed to, any environmental liability or any liability under any other federal, state or local law, the Collateral Trustee reserves the right, instead of taking such action, either to resign as Collateral Trustee or to arrange for the transfer of the title or control of the asset to a court appointed receiver. The Collateral Trustee will not be liable to any Person for any environmental liability or any environmental claims or contribution actions under any federal, state or local law, rule or regulation by reason of the Collateral

Trustee’s actions and conduct as authorized, empowered and directed hereunder or relating to any kind of discharge or release or threatened discharge or release of any hazardous materials into the environment.

SECTION 7.

Removal or Resignation of the Collateral Trustee

7.1 Removal or Resignation of Collateral Trustee. Subject to the appointment of a successor Collateral Trustee as provided in Section 7.2 and the acceptance of such appointment by the successor Collateral Trustee:

(a) the Collateral Trustee may resign at any time by giving not less than 30 days’ notice of resignation to each First Lien Representative and the Company; and

(b) the Collateral Trustee may be removed at any time, with or without cause, by an Act of Required First Lien Debtholders.

7.2 Appointment of Successor Collateral Trustee. Upon any such resignation or removal, a successor Collateral Trustee may be appointed by an Act of Required First Lien Debtholders; provided that, so long as no Secured Debt Default has occurred and is continuing, such successor Collateral Trustee shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company. If no successor Collateral Trustee has been so appointed and accepted such appointment within 10 days after the predecessor Collateral Trustee gave notice of resignation or was removed, the retiring Collateral Trustee may (at the expense of the Company), at its option, appoint a successor Collateral Trustee reasonably acceptable to the Company (but only if no Secured Debt Default has occurred and is continuing), or petition a court of competent jurisdiction for appointment of any such successor Collateral Trustee, which must be a bank or trust company:

(1) authorized to exercise corporate agency powers;

(2) having a combined capital and surplus of at least $100,000,000; and

(3) maintaining an office in New York, New York.

The Collateral Trustee will fulfill its obligations hereunder until a successor Collateral Trustee meeting the requirements of this Section 7.2 has accepted its appointment as Collateral Trustee and the provisions of Section 7.3 have been satisfied.

7.3 Succession. When the Person so appointed as successor Collateral Trustee accepts such appointment:

(1) such Person will succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the predecessor Collateral Trustee, and the predecessor Collateral Trustee will be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder; and

(2) the predecessor Collateral Trustee will (at the expense of the Company) promptly transfer all Liens and collateral security and other property constituting

Collateral within its possession or control to the possession or control of the successor Collateral Trustee and will execute instruments and assignments as may be necessary or desirable or reasonably requested by the successor Collateral Trustee to transfer to the successor Collateral Trustee all Liens, interests, rights, powers and remedies of the predecessor Collateral Trustee in respect of the First Lien Security Documents or the Collateral.

Thereafter the predecessor Collateral Trustee will remain entitled to enforce the immunities granted to it in Article 6 and the provisions of Section 8.9.

7.4 Merger, Conversion or Consolidation of Collateral Trustee. Any Person into which the Collateral Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Collateral Trustee shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Collateral Trustee shall be the successor of the Collateral Trustee pursuant to Section 7.3, provided that without the execution or filing of any paper with any party hereto or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, except where an instrument of transfer or assignment is required by law to effect such succession, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, such Person satisfies the eligibility requirements specified in clauses (1) through (3) of Section 7.2.

SECTION 8.

Miscellaneous Provisions

8.1 Amendment. (a) No amendment or supplement to the provisions of any Credit Document will be effective without the approval of the Collateral Trustee acting as directed by an Act of Required First Lien Debtholders, except that:

(1) any amendment or supplement that has the effect solely of adding or maintaining Collateral, securing additional Indebtedness that was otherwise permitted by the terms of the First Lien Debt Documents to be secured by the Collateral or preserving, perfecting or establishing the Liens thereon or the rights of the Collateral Trustee therein will become effective when executed and delivered by the Company or any other applicable Grantor party thereto and the Collateral Trustee;

(2) no amendment or supplement that reduces, impairs or adversely affects the right of any holder of First Lien Obligations:

(A) to vote its First Lien Debt as to any matter described as subject to an Act of Required First Lien Debtholders or a vote of the Required First Lien Debtholders (or amends the provisions of this clause (2) or the definition of “Act of Required First Lien Debtholders”),

(B) to share in the order of application described in Section 3.5 in the proceeds of enforcement of or realization on any Collateral,

(C) to require that Liens securing First Lien Obligations of such holder be released only as set forth in the provisions described in Section 4.1, or

will become effective without the consent of the requisite percentage or number of holders of each Series of First Lien Debt so affected under the applicable First Lien Debt Documents; and

(3) no amendment or supplement that imposes any obligation upon the Collateral Trustee or any First Lien Representative or adversely affects the rights of the Collateral Trustee or any First Lien Representative, respectively, in its capacity as such will become effective without the consent of the Collateral Trustee or such First Lien Representative, respectively.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 8.1(a) but subject to Sections 8.1(a)(2) and 8.1(a)(3), any mortgage or other Security Document that secures First Lien Obligations may be amended or supplemented with the approval of the Collateral Trustee acting as directed in writing by the Required First Lien Debtholders.

(c) The Collateral Trustee will deliver a copy of each amendment or supplement to the First Lien Security Documents to each First Lien Representative upon request.

The amount of First Lien Debt to be voted by a Series of First Lien Debt will equal (1) the aggregate principal amount of First Lien held by such Series of First Lien Debt (including outstanding letters of credit (unless fully cash collateralized in accordance with the terms of the relevant First Lien Debt Documents, fully supported by a letter of credit satisfactory to the issuer of the letter of credit supported thereby or otherwise supported in a manner satisfactory to the respective issuers thereof) whether or not then available or drawn, but excluding obligations under Hedge Agreement Documents), plus (2) the aggregate Hedge Agreement Outstanding Amount, plus (3) other than in connection with an exercise of remedies, the aggregate unfunded commitments to extend credit which, when funded, would constitute Indebtedness of such Series of First Lien Debt. Following and in accordance with the outcome of the applicable vote under its First Lien Debt Documents, the First Lien Representative of each Series of First Lien Debt will cast all of its votes as a block in respect of any vote under this Agreement. In making all determinations of votes hereunder, the Collateral Trustee shall be entitled to rely upon the votes, and relative outstanding amounts, as determined and reported to it by the various First Lien Representatives, and shall have no duty to independently ascertain such a votes or amounts.

(c) Each of the First Lien Representatives shall be entitled after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default to request a re-vote with respect to any Act of Required First Lien Debtholders concerning the taking or refraining from taking any remedies if it believes that (i) the voting percentages of the various Series of First Lien Debt have changed in any material respect or (ii) facts or circumstances with respect to the Company, the Guarantors or the Collateral have changed sufficiently that such First Lien Representative could reasonably believe such re-vote would have a different outcome than the original vote; provided that if the First Lien Creditors have, following any vote or other determination by such First Lien Creditors pursuant to an Act of Required First Lien Debtholders, entered into any amendment, consent, waiver, standstill, forbearance, modification or similar agreement with the Company, or otherwise agreed with the Company (other than through a pattern or course of conduct) to take or not to take a specified action (collectively, an “Action”), the First Lien Representatives shall not be entitled to request a revote with respect to the matters covered by such Action during the period in which such Action remains in effect.

8.3 Calculation of Obligations under Hedge Agreements. Any calculation of obligations outstanding under a Hedge Agreement Document for purposes of this Agreement or any other First Lien Security Document shall be made based on the Hedge Agreement Outstanding Amount thereunder.

8.4 Successors and Assigns.

All obligations of the Collateral Trustee hereunder will inure to the sole and exclusive benefit of, and be enforceable by, each First Lien Representative and each present and future holder of First Lien Obligations, each of whom will be entitled to enforce this Agreement as a third-party beneficiary hereof, and all of their respective successors and assigns.

(b) Neither the Company nor any other Grantor may assign its rights or obligations hereunder or under any other First Lien Security Document other than in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof.

8.5 Delay and Waiver. No failure to exercise, no course of dealing with respect to the exercise of, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy arising under this Agreement or any of the other First Lien Security Documents will impair any such right, power or remedy or operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy will preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The remedies herein are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.
