2.4 No New Liens. (a) So long as the First Priority Obligations Payment Date has not
occurred, the parties hereto agree that (x) there shall be no Lien, and no Loan Party shall have
any right to create any Lien, on any assets of any Loan Party securing any Second Priority
Obligation or Third Priority Obligation if these same assets are not subject to, and do not become
subject to, a Lien securing the First Priority Obligations and (y) if any Second Priority Secured
Party or Third Priority Secured Party shall acquire or hold any Lien on any assets of any Loan
Party securing any Second Priority Obligation or Third Priority Obligation which assets are not
also subject to the first-priority Lien of the First Priority Representative under the First
Priority Documents, then the Second Priority Representative or Third Priority Representative, as
the case may be, upon demand by the First Priority Representative, will without the need for any
further consent of any other Second Priority Secured Party or Third Priority Secured Party,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any other Second Priority Document or Third
12
Priority
Document either (i) release such Lien or (ii) assign it to the First Priority Representative as
security for the First Priority Obligations (in which case the Second Priority Representative or
Third Priority Representative, as the case may be, may retain a junior lien on such assets subject
to the terms hereof). To the extent that the foregoing provisions are not complied with for any
reason, without limiting any other rights and remedies available to the First Priority Secured
Parties, the Second Priority Representative and the other Second Priority Secured Parties, and the
Third Priority Secured Representative and the other Third Priority Secured Parties agree that any
amounts received by or distributed to any of them pursuant to or as a result of Liens granted in
contravention of this Section 2.4 shall be subject to Section 4.1.
(b) So long as the Second Priority Obligations Payment Date has not occurred, the parties
hereto agree that (x) there shall be no Lien, and no Loan Party shall have any right to create any
Lien, on any assets of any Loan Party securing any Third Priority Obligation if these same assets

do not become subject to, a Lien securing the Second Priority Obligations and (y) if any Third
Priority Secured Party shall acquire or hold any Lien on any assets of any Loan Party securing any
Third Priority Obligation which assets are not also subject to the second-priority Lien of the
Second Priority Representative under the Second Priority Documents, then the Third Priority
Representative, upon demand by the Second Priority Representative, will without the need for any
further consent of any other Third Priority Secured Party, notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in any other Third Priority Document either (i) release such Lien or (ii) assign it to the Second
Priority Representative as security for the Second Priority Obligations (in which case the Third
Priority Representative may retain a junior lien on such assets subject to the terms hereof). To
the extent that the foregoing provisions are not complied with for any reason, without limiting any
other rights and remedies available to the Second Priority Secured Parties, the Third Priority
Secured Representative and the other Third Priority Secured Parties agree that any amounts received
by or distributed to any of them pursuant to or as a result of Liens granted in contravention of

exercise of remedies. Following the occurrence of the First Priority Obligations Payment Date, and
upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a default or an event of default under the Second
Priority Documents, the Second Priority Representative and the other Second Priority Secured
Parties may take and continue any Enforcement Action with respect to the Second Priority

Priority Secured Party and the other Second Priority Secured Parties, and the Third Priority
Representative agrees, on behalf of itself and the other Third Priority Secured Parties, that each
Second Priority Secured Party and Third Priority Secured Party (a) will be deemed to have consented

the First Priority Agreement at the time of such DIP Financing shall not exceed 110% of what the
total amount of outstanding principal under the First Priority Agreement was on the date of
commencement of such Insolvency Proceeding, and (2) the terms of such DIP Financing or cash
collateral use order (A) do not compel the applicable Loan Party 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 and (B) do not expressly require the

from the automatic stay or from any other stay in any Insolvency Proceeding or take any action in
derogation thereof, in each case in respect of any Common Collateral, without the prior written
consent of the First Priority Representative and the Second Priority Representative.
5.4 Adequate Protection. (a) The Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself
as a Second Priority Secured Party and the other Second Priority Secured Parties, and the Third
Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other Third Priority Secured Parties, agree
that none of them shall object, contest, or support any other Person objecting to or contesting,
(1) any request by the First Priority Representative or the other First Priority Secured Parties
for adequate protection or any adequate protection provided to the First Priority Representative or
the other First Priority Secured Parties or (2) any objection by the First Priority Representative
or any other First Priority Secured Parties to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on a
claim of a lack of adequate protection or (3) the payment of interest, fees, expenses or other
amounts to the First Priority Representative or any other First Priority Secured Party under

in this Section and in Section 5.2(b) (but subject to all other provisions of this Agreement,
including, without limitation, Sections 5.2(a) and 5.3), in any Insolvency Proceeding, (i) if the
First Priority Secured Parties (or any subset thereof) are granted adequate protection consisting
of additional collateral (with replacement liens on such additional collateral) and superpriority
claims in connection with any DIP Financing or use of cash collateral, and the First Priority
Secured Parties do not object to the adequate protection being provided to them, then in connection

of itself and any of the Second Priority Secured Parties, and the Third Priority Representative, on
behalf of itself and any of the Third Priority Secured Parties, may seek or accept adequate
protection consisting solely of (x) a replacement Lien on the same additional collateral,

and such DIP Financing on the
same basis as the other Liens securing the Second Priority Obligations and Third Priority
Obligations are so subordinated to the First Priority Obligations under this Agreement and (y)
superpriority claims junior in all respects to the superpriority claims granted to the First
Priority Secured Parties, provided, however, that the Second Priority
Representative and the Third Priority Representative shall have irrevocably agreed, pursuant to
Section 1129(a)(9) of the Bankruptcy Code, on behalf of themselves as Secured Parties and the
Second Priority Secured Parties and the Third Priority Secured Parties, in any stipulation and/or
order granting such adequate protection, that such junior superpriority claims may be paid under
any plan of reorganization in any combination of cash, debt, equity or other property having a
value on the effective date of such plan equal to the allowed amount of such claims and (ii) in the
event the Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself as a Second Priority Secured Party
and the Second Priority Secured Parties, or the Third Priority Representative, on behalf of itself
and the Third Priority Secured Parties, seek or accept adequate protection in accordance with
clause (i) above and such adequate protection is granted in the form of additional collateral, then
the Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself as a Second Priority Secured Party or any
of the Second Priority Secured Parties, and the Third Priority Representative, on behalf of itself
and the Third Priority Secured Parties, agree that the First Priority Representative shall also be
granted a senior Lien on such additional collateral as security for the First Priority Obligations
and any such DIP Financing and that any Lien on such additional collateral securing the Second
Priority Obligations and/or the Third Priority Obligations shall be subordinated to the Liens on
such collateral securing the First Priority Obligations and any such DIP Financing (and all
Obligations relating thereto) and any other Liens granted to the First Priority Secured Parties as
adequate protection, with such subordination to be on the same terms that the other Liens securing
the Second Priority Obligations and/or the Third Priority Obligations
are subordinated to such First Priority Obligations under this Agreement. The Second Priority
Representative, on behalf of itself as a Second Priority Secured Party and the other Second
Priority Secured Parties, and the Third Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other
Third Priority Secured Parties, agree that except as expressly set forth in this Section none of
them shall seek or accept adequate protection without the prior written consent of the First
Priority Representative.
(b) The Third Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other Third Priority
Secured Parties, agrees that none of them shall object, contest, or support any other Person
objecting to or contesting, (1) any request by the Second Priority Representative or the other
Second Priority Secured Parties for adequate protection or any adequate protection provided to the
Second Priority Representative or the other Second Priority Secured Parties or (2) any objection by
the Second Priority Representative or any other Second Priority Secured Parties to any motion,
relief, action or proceeding based on a claim of a lack of adequate protection or (3) the payment
of interest, fees, expenses or other amounts to the Second Priority Representative or any other
Second Priority Secured Party under Section 506(b) or 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise.
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section and in Section 5.2(b) (but subject to all other
provisions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, Sections 5.2(a) and 5.3), in any
Insolvency Proceeding, (i) if the Second Priority Secured Parties (or any subset thereof) are
granted adequate protection consisting of additional collateral (with replacement liens on such
additional collateral) and superpriority claims in connection with any DIP Financing or use of cash
collateral, and the Second Priority Secured Parties do not object to the adequate protection being
provided to them, then in connection with any such DIP Financing or use of cash collateral the
Third Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and any of the Third Priority Secured Parties,
may seek or accept adequate protection consisting solely of (x) a replacement Lien on the same
additional collateral, subordinated to the Liens securing the Second Priority Obligations and such
DIP Financing on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Third Priority Obligations are so
subordinated to the Second Priority Obligations under this
23
Agreement and (y) superpriority claims
junior in all respects to the superpriority claims granted to the Second Priority Secured Parties,
provided, however, that the Third Priority Representative shall have irrevocably
agreed, pursuant to Section 1129(a)(9) of the Bankruptcy Code, on behalf of itself and the Third
Priority Secured Parties, in any stipulation and/or order granting such adequate protection, that

additional collateral as security for the Second Priority Obligations and any such DIP Financing
and that any Lien on such additional collateral securing the Third Priority Obligations shall be
subordinated to the Liens on such collateral securing the Second Priority Obligations and any such
DIP Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto) and any other Liens granted to the Second
Priority Secured Parties as adequate protection, with such subordination to be on the same terms
that the other Liens securing the Third Priority Obligations are subordinated to such Second
Priority Obligations under this Agreement. The Third Priority Representative, on behalf of itself
and the other Third Priority Secured Parties, agrees that except as expressly set forth in this
Section none of them shall seek or accept adequate protection without the prior written consent of
the Second Priority Representative. .
(c) Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to prevent the Second Priority Representative,
any Second Priority Secured Party, the Third Priority Representative or any Third Priority Secured
Party from
making any application in any Insolvency Proceeding to receive cash payment of post-petition
interest, expenses or fees at any point during the Insolvency Proceeding.
5.5 Avoidance Issues. (a) If any First Priority Secured Party is required in any
Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise to disgorge, turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of any
Loan Party, 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
amount (a “First Priority Recovery”), whether received as proceeds of security, enforcement of any
right of set-off or otherwise, then the First Priority Obligations shall be reinstated to the
extent of such First Priority Recovery and deemed to be outstanding as if such payment had not
occurred and the First Priority Obligations Payment Date shall be deemed not to have occurred. If
this Agreement shall have been terminated prior to such First Priority 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. The Second
Priority Secured Parties and the Third Priority Secured Parties agree that none of them shall be
entitled to benefit from any avoidance action affecting or otherwise relating to any distribution
or allocation made in accordance with this Agreement, whether by preference or otherwise, it being
understood and agreed that the benefit of such avoidance action otherwise allocable to them shall
instead be allocated and turned over for application in accordance with the priorities set forth in
this Agreement.
(b) If any Second Priority Secured Party is required in any Insolvency Proceeding or
otherwise to disgorge, turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of any Loan Party, 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 amount (a “Second Priority
Recovery”), whether received as
24
proceeds of security, enforcement of any right of set-off or
otherwise, then the Second Priority Obligations shall be reinstated to the extent of such Second
Priority Recovery and deemed to be outstanding as if such payment had not occurred and the Second
Priority Obligations Payment Date shall be deemed not to have occurred. If this Agreement shall
have been terminated prior to such Second Priority 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. The Third Priority Secured Parties agree
that none of them shall be entitled to benefit from any avoidance action affecting or otherwise
relating to any distribution or allocation made in accordance with this Agreement, whether by
preference or otherwise, it being understood and agreed that the benefit of such avoidance action
otherwise allocable to them shall instead be allocated and turned over for application in
accordance with the priorities set forth in this Agreement.
5.6 Asset Dispositions in an Insolvency Proceeding. (a) None of the Second Priority
Representative, the Third Priority Representative, any other Second Priority Secured Party nor any
other Third Priority Secured Party shall, in an Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise, oppose any sale
or disposition of any assets of any Loan Party that is supported by the First Priority Secured
Parties, and the Second Priority Representative, the Third Priority Secured Party and each other
Second Priority Secured Party and Third Priority Secured Party will be deemed to have consented
under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (and otherwise) to any sale supported by the First
Priority Secured Parties and to have released their Liens on such assets, provided, however, that
the Lien of the Second Priority Representative, the Third Priority Representative and each other
Second Priority Secured Party and Third Priority Secured Party shall continue in the proceeds of
any such sale or disposition, which Lien shall be governed by the terms of this Agreement; and
provided further, that that if the total amount of outstanding First Priority Obligations plus the
amount of any unfunded commitments then outstanding with respect to the First Priority Agreement is (or would become in connection with such sale or disposition)
less than $20,000,000.00, any such release must be consented to by the Second Priority
Representative.

shall, in an Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise, oppose any sale or disposition of any assets of
any Loan Party that is supported by the Second Priority Secured Parties, and the Third Priority
Representative and each other Third Priority Secured Party will be deemed to have consented under
Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (and otherwise) to any sale supported by the Second Priority
Secured Parties and to have released their Liens on such assets, provided, however, that the Lien
of the Third Priority Representative and each other Third Priority Secured Party shall continue in
the proceeds of any such sale or disposition, which Lien shall be governed by the terms of this
Agreement.
5.7 Separate Grants of Security and Separate Classification. Each Second Priority
Secured Party and Third Priority Secured Party acknowledges and agrees that (a) the grants of Liens
pursuant to the First Priority Security Documents, the Second Priority Security Documents and the
Third Priority Security Documents constitute three separate and distinct grants of Liens and (b)
because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Common Collateral, the First Priority
Obligations, the Second Priority Obligations and the Third Priority Obligations are each
fundamentally different from each other 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 First Priority Secured Parties, Second Priority Secured Parties and Third Priority Secured
Parties in respect of the Common Collateral constitute only one secured claim (rather than three
separate classes of first, second and third priority secured claims), then the Second Priority
25
Secured Parties and Third Priority Secured Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that all
distributions shall be made as if there were three separate classes of first, second and third
priority secured claims against the Loan Parties in respect of the Common Collateral (with the
effect being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the Common Collateral is sufficient
(for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the Second Priority Secured Parties and the Third
Priority Secured Parties), (i) the First Priority 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 before any distribution is made in
respect of the claims held by the Second Secured Priority Secured Parties and the Third Priority
Secured Parties, with the Second Priority Secured Parties and Third Priority Secured Parties hereby
acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the First Priority Secured Parties 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 Priority
Secured Parties and Third Priority Secured Parties; and (ii) following the application of clause
(i) hereto, the Second Priority 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 before any distribution is made in respect of
the claims held by the Third Priority Secured Parties, with the Third Priority Secured Parties
hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the Second Priority Secured Parties 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 Third
Priority Secured Parties.
5.8 No Waivers of Rights of First Priority Secured Parties and Second Priority Secured
Parties. Nothing contained herein shall prohibit or in any way limit the First Priority
Representative or any other First Priority Secured Party from objecting in any Insolvency
Proceeding or otherwise to any action taken by any Second Priority Secured Party or Third Priority
Secured Party, including the seeking
by any Second Priority Secured Party or Third Priority Secured Party of adequate protection
(except as provided in Section 5.4) or the asserting by any Second Priority Secured Party or Third
Priority Secured Party of any of its rights and remedies under the Second Priority Documents, the
Third Priority Documents or otherwise, or limit the Second Priority Representative or any other
Second Priority Secured Party from objecting in any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise to any
action taken by any Third Priority Secured Party, including the seeking by any Third Priority
Secured Party of adequate protection (except as provided in Section 5.4) or the asserting by any
Third Priority Secured Party of any of its rights and remedies under the Third Priority Documents
or otherwise.

Second Priority Secured Party or any Second Priority Secured Party, or the Third Priority
Representative or any Third Priority Secured Party, has or acquires rights under Section 363 or
Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to any of the Common Collateral, the Second
Priority Representative agrees, on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties,
and the Third Priority Representative agrees, on behalf of itself and the other Third Priority
Secured Parties, not to assert any of such rights without the prior written consent of the First
Priority Representative; provided that if requested by the First Priority Representative, the
Second Priority Representative and/or the Third Priority Representative shall timely exercise such
rights in the manner requested by the First Priority Representative, including any rights to
payments in respect of such rights.
(b) To the extent that the Third Priority Representative or any Third Priority Secured Party
has or acquires rights under Section 363 or Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to any
of the
26
Common Collateral, the Third Priority Representative agrees, on behalf of itself and the
other Third Priority Secured Parties not to assert any of such rights without the prior written
consent of the Second Priority Representative; provided that if requested by the Second Priority
Representative, the Third Priority Representative shall timely exercise such rights in the manner
requested by the Second Priority Representative, including any rights to payments in respect of
such rights.

Code, shall be effective before, during and after the commencement of an Insolvency Proceeding.
SECTION 6. Second Priority Documents and First Priority Documents.

or the First Priority Representative, in its sole discretion, undertakes at any time or from time
to time to provide any information to any other party to this Agreement, it shall be under no

or (c) to disclose any other information.

by the law of the State of New York, except as otherwise required by mandatory provisions of law
and except to the extent that remedies provided by the laws of any jurisdiction other than the

and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the

or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of
any judgment, and each
such party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any
such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent
permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each such party agrees that a final judgment in any such
action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the
judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right
that the any First Priority Secured Party, Second Priority Secured Party or Third Priority Secured
Party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding against any Loan Party or its properties

(b) Each First Priority Secured Party, each Second Priority Secured Party, each Third
Priority Secured Party and each Loan Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the
fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so (i) any objection it may now or hereafter have
to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Agreement in any court referred to in paragraph (a) of this Section and (ii) the defense of an
inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding.
(c) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner
provided for notices in Section 10.7. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party
to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall
constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.
Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be
effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. This Agreement shall
become effective when it shall have been executed by each party hereto.
10.13 Additional Loan Parties. Each Person that becomes a Loan Party after the
date hereof shall become a party to this Agreement upon execution and delivery by such Person of an

acknowledges that, pursuant to Article X of the Existing Third Priority Agreement, the Third
Priority Obligations are subordinated in right of payment to the First Priority Obligations and the
Second Priority Obligations, and the Third Priority Representative acknowledges that the First
