(b) Any Distribution (other than Reorganization Subordinated Securities), whether in cash, securities or other property, which would otherwise, but for the terms hereof, be payable or deliverable in respect of the Subordinated Debt shall be paid or delivered directly to Senior Agent (to be held and/or applied by Senior Agent in accordance with the terms of the Senior Documents) until all Senior Debt is Paid in Full. Subordinated Agent, individually and on behalf of the Subordinated Creditors, irrevocably authorizes, empowers and directs any debtor, debtor in possession, receiver, trustee, liquidator, custodian, conservator or other Person having authority, to pay or otherwise deliver all such Distributions to Senior Agent.

(d) Subordinated Agent, in its capacity as the holder of a Secured Claim, on behalf of itself and Subordinated Creditors, agrees that Senior Agent may consent to the use of cash collateral or provide (or consent to any other Person providing) financing to any Obligor or trustee (in each case, “DIP Financing”) on such terms and conditions and in such amounts (subject to the Senior Debt Limit) as Senior Agent, in its sole discretion, may decide and, in connection therewith, each Obligor (or trustee) may grant to Senior Agent (or such other Person providing financing), liens and security interests upon all of its property, which liens and security interests (i) shall secure payment of all Senior Debt (whether such Senior Debt arose prior to the commencement of any Proceeding or at any time thereafter) and all other financing provided by Senior Secured Parties (or such other Persons providing financing) during the Proceeding and (ii) shall be superior in priority to the liens and security interests, if any, in favor of Subordinated Agent or any Subordinated Creditor on the property of any Obligor; provided, however, that Subordinated Agent may object to any DIP Financing in its capacity as the holder of a Secured Claim to the extent that the principal amount thereof, together with the aggregate principal amount of Senior Debt outstanding immediately after giving effect to any payment thereof with the proceeds of such DIP Financing, would exceed the Senior Debt Limit. If Senior Agent is granted adequate protection in the form of additional or replacement Collateral, Subordinated Agent may seek adequate protection in the form of a Junior Adequate Protection Lien in accordance with Section 4(e) below, and neither Senior Agent nor any Senior Secured Party will object to or oppose the granting of such lien to Subordinated Agent (provided that any failure of Subordinated Agent to obtain such adequate protection shall not impair or otherwise affect the agreements, undertakings and consents of Subordinated Agent pursuant to this Section 4(d)). In addition, Subordinated Agent, in its capacity as the holder of a Secured Claim, for itself and on behalf of the Subordinated Creditors, agrees that it will not object to or oppose, and will consent to, a sale or other disposition of any property securing all or any part of the Senior Debt free and clear of security interests, liens or other claims of Subordinated Agent and the Subordinated Creditors under Section 363 of the Code or any other provision of the Code if Senior Agent has consented to such sale or disposition; provided, that Subordinated Agent shall have the right to object to the further use of the net proceeds of such sale or other disposition unless such net proceeds are applied to reduce the amount of Senior Debt outstanding. None of Subordinated Agent or any other Subordinated Creditor shall, directly or indirectly, seek to provide any financing in any Proceeding secured by liens equal or senior to the liens securing the Senior Debt without Senior Agent’s prior written consent. Any claim of Subordinated Agent or any Subordinated Creditor arising during a Proceeding shall constitute Subordinated Debt under this Agreement. Subordinated Agent, on behalf of itself and the Subordinated Creditors, waives any claim it may now or hereafter have arising out of Senior Agent’s election, in any Proceeding instituted under the Code, of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Code, the agreement of Senior Agent to any “carve-out” or the consent by Senior Agent to any borrowing or grant of a security interest under Section 364 of the Code by any Obligor, as debtor in possession. Subordinated Agent, in its capacity as the holder of a Secured Claim, for itself and on behalf of the Subordinated Creditors, agrees not to (1) assert any rights under Sections 362, 363 or 364 of the Code with respect to the Collateral, including any rights it may have to “adequate protection” of Subordinated Agent’s or any Subordinated Creditor’s interest in any Collateral in any Proceeding (except with respect to a Junior Adequate Protection Lien authorized by this section), (2) oppose or object to any adequate protection sought by or granted to Senior Agent or any Senior Secured Party with respect to the Collateral, (3) initiate or prosecute or join with any other Person to initiate or prosecute any claim, action, objection or other proceeding opposing a motion by Senior Agent or any Senior Secured Party to lift the automatic stay, (4) seek the dismissal or conversion of a Proceeding, (5) seek the appointment of a trustee, receiver or examiner in a Proceeding, or (6) seek to have the automatic stay of Section 362 of the Code (or any similar stay under any other applicable law) lifted or modified with respect to the Collateral.

(e) Notwithstanding anything in Section 4(d) to the contrary but subject to the other express provisions of this Agreement, in any Proceeding involving any Obligor, Subordinated Agent may exercise rights and remedies generally available to holders of unsecured claims against such Obligor and otherwise in accordance with the Subordinated Debt Documents and applicable law. In furtherance of the foregoing, Subordinated Agent shall be entitled to file any pleadings, objections, motions or agreements which assert rights or interests available to unsecured creditors of the Obligors arising under either the Code or applicable non-bankruptcy law, in each case if not otherwise in contravention of the other express terms of this Agreement, including any right to object to the sale or use of property under Section 363 of the Code and/or any financing under Section 364 of the Code solely to the extent such objection could be asserted by the holder of an unsecured claim against any Obligor; provided, however, that in the exercise of such rights or interests, Subordinated Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Subordinated Creditors, shall not vote in favor of any plan of reorganization, or file any objection or other pleading, so as to (i) contest the validity of the Senior Debt or any Lien securing the Senior Debt, (ii) contest the rights of Senior Agent or any Senior Secured Party established in any Senior Document or the enforceability of any of the Senior Documents, (iii) contest the priority position of Senior Agent or each Senior Secured Party over Subordinated Agent and all Subordinated Creditors created by this Agreement or otherwise contest the obligations of Subordinated Agent and all Subordinated Creditors hereunder, (iv) otherwise provide for any terms that conflict with the terms of this Agreement unless Senior Agent and all Senior Secured Parties have approved such plan in writing (including, without limitation, objecting to the sale or use of property under Section 363 of the Code and/or any financing under Section 364 of the Code to the extent that Subordinated Agent and Subordinated Creditors, in their capacity as secured creditors, are prohibited from doing so under Section 4(d) of this Agreement), or (vi) take any position or action available only to a secured creditor which would have directly or indirectly any of the following effects: (1) effecting a cram-down of the Senior Debt over the rejection of the Senior Agent or Senior Secured Parties, (2) blocking current payment of any obligation in respect of Senior Debt, or (3) opposing or objecting to any sale or lease of any Collateral and/or sale of any Equity Interests that has been consented to by the holders of Senior Debt.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions in Section 4(d), in any Proceeding, if Senior Agent is granted any “replacement liens” as adequate protection for its interest in the Collateral (“Senior Adequate Protection Liens”), Subordinated Agent may seek (and Senior Agent shall not oppose) adequate protection of its interests in the Collateral, in the form of (i) replacement liens on the additional collateral subject to the Senior Adequate Protection Liens (the “Junior Adequate Protection Liens”), which Junior Adequate Protection Liens, if granted, will be subordinate to all liens securing the Senior Debt (including, without limitation, the Senior Adequate Protection Liens and any “carve-out” agreed to by Senior Agent) and any liens securing debtor-in-possession financing provided by Senior Agent and Senior Secured Parties or by any other Person with the consent of Senior Agent and Senior Secured Parties on the same basis as the other liens securing the Subordinated Debt are so subordinated under this Agreement and (ii) superpriority claims under Section 507(b) of the Code (it being agreed and understood that any such claim under Section 507(b) of the Code shall constitute Subordinated Debt under this Agreement); provided, in all cases that Subordinated Agent shall have irrevocably agreed, pursuant to Section 1129(a)(9) of the Code, in any stipulation and/or order granting such adequate protection, that any 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 junior superpriority claims.

(g) Subordinated Agent agrees to execute, verify, deliver and file any proofs of claim in respect of the Subordinated Debt requested by Senior Agent in connection with any such Proceeding and hereby irrevocably authorizes, empowers and appoints Senior Agent its agent and attorney-in-fact to execute, verify, deliver and file such proofs of claim upon the failure of Subordinated Agent promptly to do so prior to 10 days before the expiration of the time to file any such proof of claim; provided, that Senior Agent shall have no obligation to execute, verify, deliver, and/or file, and no authority to vote, any such proof of claim.

(h) The Senior Debt shall continue to be treated as Senior Debt and the provisions of this Agreement shall continue to govern the relative rights and priorities of Senior Agent, Senior Secured Parties, Subordinated Agent and the Subordinated Creditors even if all or part of the Senior Debt or the security interests securing the Senior Debt are subordinated, set aside, avoided, invalidated or disallowed in connection with any such Proceeding and this Agreement shall be reinstated if at any time any payment of any of the Senior Debt is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any holder of Senior Debt or any representative of such holder.

(i) The parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the claims and interests of Senior Agent and Senior Secured Parties under the Senior Documents are substantially different from the claims and interests of Subordinated Agent and the Subordinated Creditors under the Subordinated Debt Documents and (ii) such claims and interests should be treated as separate classes for purposes of Section 1122 of the Code. It is acknowledged and agreed that this Agreement shall constitute a “subordination agreement” within the meaning of Section 510(a) of the Code.

(j) None of Subordinated Agent or any other Subordinated Creditor shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by Senior Agent or any Senior Secured Party for allowance in any Proceeding of Senior Debt consisting of post-petition interest to the extent of the value of the Lien of Senior Agent on behalf of the Senior Secured Parties on the Collateral or any other Senior Secured Party’s Lien, without regard to the existence of the Liens of Subordinated Agent on behalf of Subordinated Creditors on the Collateral.

5. Subordinated Debt Standstill Provisions.

(a) Until the Senior Debt is Paid in Full, Subordinated Agent and Subordinated Creditors shall not, without the prior written consent of Senior Agent, take any Collection Action with respect to the Subordinated Debt until the earliest to occur of the following and in any event no earlier than ten days after Senior Agent’s receipt of written notice of Subordinated Agent’s intention to take any such Collection Action:

(i) acceleration of all or any portion of the Senior Debt; provided, however, if, within 60 days after any such acceleration of the Senior Debt, such acceleration is rescinded, then any acceleration of the Subordinated Debt shall also be deemed automatically rescinded and any Collection Action commenced by Subordinated Agent and Subordinated Creditor shall also be immediately discontinued;

(ii) the passage of 150 days from the delivery of a Subordinated Debt Default Notice to Senior Agent if any Subordinated Debt Default described therein shall not have been cured or waived within such period so long as, at least ten (10) days prior to the date on which Subordinated Agent intends to take such Collection Action, Senior Agent has received written notice from Subordinated Agent (which notice may be given prior to the end of such 150-day period) of Subordinated Agent’s intention to take such Collection Action; provided that (A) if a Subordinated Default which is the subject of any such notice has been cured or waived within such 150-day period, the applicable notice shall be deemed automatically rescinded and shall have no further force or effect and any acceleration in respect of such Subordinated Default shall be deemed automatically rescinded and any Collection Action commenced by Subordinated Agent and Subordinated Creditor shall also be immediately discontinued, and (B) a Subordinated Default which, to the actual knowledge of Subordinated Creditor, exists at or prior to the giving of any such notice may not serve as the basis for a subsequent notice by Subordinated Creditor under this clause (ii); or

(iii) a Proceeding involving any Obligor (other than any such Proceeding initiated by a Subordinated Creditor).

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in any of the Subordinated Debt Documents, until the Senior Debt has been Paid in Full, Subordinated Agent and Subordinated Creditors shall not, without the prior written consent of Senior Agent, take any Collection Action with respect to the Collateral or any property or assets of any Obligor securing the Subordinated Debt or take any Collection Action with respect to the Collateral if the Senior Agent has commenced and is diligently pursuing the collection of the Senior Debt and the enforcement or liquidation of the Collateral securing the Senior Debt; provided, that this sentence shall not be construed to limit or impair in any way the right of any Subordinated Creditor to: (1) bid for, or purchase Collateral at any private or judicial foreclosure upon such Collateral initiated by any Person other than the Subordinated Agent or a Subordinated Creditor, so long as the Senior Debt is Paid in Full with the proceeds of such bid or a higher competing bid at such foreclosure, (2) join (but not control) any foreclosure or other judicial lien enforcement proceeding with respect to the Collateral initiated by Senior Agent for the sole purpose of creating, perfecting, preserving or protecting such Subordinated Agent’s security interest in the Collateral, (3) receive any remaining proceeds of Collateral after the Senior Debt has been Paid in Full, (4) file a claim, proof of claim or statement of interest with respect to all or any of the Subordinated Debt in any Proceeding, (5) file any 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 Subordinated Agent or any Subordinated Creditor relating to the Subordinated Debt, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (6) file any financing statement or amendment necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of the subordinated security interests of Subordinated Agent, and (7) vote on any plan of reorganization, make other filings and make any arguments and motions in any Proceeding as authorized by Section 4 above.

(c) Without limiting the provisions of Section 2, Section 3, or Section 4 above, (i) until the Senior Debt has been Paid in Full, all Distributions or other proceeds of Collection Actions and/or any Collateral obtained by Subordinated Agent or any Subordinated Creditor (other than Reorganization Subordinated Securities) shall in any event be held in trust by it for the benefit of Senior Agent and promptly be paid or delivered to Senior Agent in the form received, (ii) subject to the proviso to Section 5(b), if any disposition of any Collateral or any assets of any Obligor is permitted under the terms of the Senior Documents or is consented to by Senior Agent, in each case that results in the release of the security interests and liens securing the Senior Debt, Subordinated Agent, on behalf of itself any the Subordinated Creditors, shall be deemed to have consented under the Subordinated Documents to such disposition free and clear of any security interests and liens securing the Subordinated Debt (excluding any portion of the proceeds of such Collateral remaining after the Payment in Full of the Senior Debt) and to have waived the provisions of the Subordinated Documents to the extent necessary to permit such disposition, and (iii) until the Senior Debt has been Paid in Full, neither Senior Agent nor any Senior Secured Party shall have any obligation whatsoever to account for, allocate or deliver to Subordinated Agent or any Subordinated Creditor any proceeds or distributions received by Senior Agent or such Senior Secured Party as a result thereof.

6. Payments in Contravention of this Agreement; Subrogation. Any payment made by any one or more of the Obligors and received by Subordinated Agent or any Subordinated Creditor in violation of any provision of this Agreement shall be held in trust by Subordinated Agent or such Subordinated Creditor for Senior Agent and the Senior Secured Parties and shall be promptly delivered, in kind, to Senior Agent to the extent necessary to pay in full all Senior Debt in accordance with its terms. Upon all Senior Debt being Paid in Full, Subordinated Agent, for itself and Subordinated Creditors, shall be subrogated to all rights of Senior Agent and each Senior Secured Party to receive all further payments or distributions applicable to the Senior Debt until the Subordinated Debt shall have been paid in full but only to the extent of payments on the Subordinated Debt paid to Senior Agent and any Senior Secured Party pursuant to this Agreement and subject to the terms of any other subordination or comparable agreement applicable to the Subordinated Debt. For purposes of Subordinated Agent’s subrogation rights hereunder, payments to Senior Agent and any Senior Secured Party with respect to the Senior Debt that Subordinated Agent and Subordinated Creditors would have been entitled to receive with respect to the Subordinated Debt but for the provisions of this Agreement shall not, as between any Obligor, its creditors (other than Senior Agent and any Senior Secured Party), Subordinated Agent and Subordinated Creditors, be deemed payments with respect to the Senior Debt, but rather shall be deemed payments with respect to the Subordinated Debt, it being understood that the provisions of this Agreement are solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the holders of Senior Debt, on the one hand, and the holders of the Subordinated Debt, on the other hand.

7. Concerning Collateral in Control or Possession.

(a) In the event that Subordinated Agent or any Subordinated Creditor takes possession of or has “control” (as such term is used in the UCC as in effect in each applicable jurisdiction) over any certificated securities or other Collateral for purposes of perfecting its liens and security interests therein, Subordinated Agent or such Subordinated Creditor shall promptly deliver same to Senior Agent, for the benefit of itself and the Senior Secured Parties, and, prior to such delivery, be deemed to be holding such Collateral also as representative for the Senior Agent and the Senior Secured Parties, solely for purposes of perfection of Senior Agent’s liens and security interests under the UCC; provided that Subordinated Agent and Subordinated Creditors shall not have any duty or liability to protect or preserve any rights pertaining to any of the Collateral for the Senior Agent or Senior Secured Parties. It is understood and agreed that this Section 7(a) is intended solely to assure continuous perfection of the liens and security interests granted under the Senior Documents, and nothing in this Section 7(a) shall be deemed or construed as altering the priorities or obligations set forth elsewhere in this Agreement. The duties of Subordinated Agent and Subordinated Creditors under this Section 7(a) shall be mechanical and administrative in nature, and Subordinated Agent and Subordinated Creditors shall not have, or be deemed to have, by reason of this Agreement or otherwise a fiduciary relationship in respect of the Senior Agent or Senior Secured Parties. Senior Agent, Subordinated Agent and the Loan Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enter into, following the Closing Date, four-party control agreements with East West Bank covering any new deposit accounts of the Loan Parties that are established at East West Bank prior to or following the Closing Date (the “New DACAs”), which shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Subordinated Agent and Senior Agent. Following the execution and delivery of the New DACAs, Subordinated Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate in the termination of the deposit account control agreements in place on the Closing Date (excluding any New DACAs). Prior to the notification to Subordinated Agent that Senior Agent has obtained the execution and delivery of the New DACAs, upon receipt by Subordinated Agent of a copy of any notice of default sent by Senior Agent to a Loan Party, Subordinated Agent agrees to act solely in accordance with the written direction of the Senior Agent in exercising any and all control rights, including the right to block or make withdrawals and direct the investment of deposits, under each Existing DACA. The Loan Parties hereby (i) agree to indemnify, defend and hold Subordinated Agent harmless from any and all loss, liability or expense (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) arising out of Subordinated Agent’s following of Senior Agent’s direction or instruction pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence other than loss, liability and expense caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Subordinated Agent and (ii) waive any claim against Subordinated Agent arising out of Subordinated Agent’s following of Senior Agent’s direction or instruction pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence other than for the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Subordinated Agent, provided that (A) the Subordinated Agent shall be deemed not to have committed gross negligence or willful misconduct if it acts in accordance with the direction or instruction of the Senior Agent in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence and (B) nothing herein shall waive any claim that the Loan Parties may have against the Senior Agent if the Senior Agent provides a direction or instruction to the Subordinated Agent that violates the terms of the Senior Documents.

(b) In the event that Senior Agent takes possession of or has “control” (as such term is used in the UCC as in effect in each applicable jurisdiction) over any certificated securities or other Collateral for purposes of perfecting its liens and security interests therein, Senior Agent shall be deemed to be holding such certificated securities or other Collateral also as representative for the Subordinated Agent and the Subordinated Creditors, solely for purposes of perfection of its liens and security interests under the UCC; provided that Senior Agent shall not have any duty or liability to protect or preserve any rights pertaining to any of the Collateral for the Subordinated Agent. Promptly following the Senior Debt being Paid in Full, Senior Agent shall, upon the request of Subordinated Agent, deliver the remainder of the Collateral, if any, in its possession to Subordinated Agent or its designee (except as may otherwise be required by applicable law or court order). It is understood and agreed that this Section 7(b) is intended solely to assure continuous perfection of the liens and security interests granted under the Subordinated Debt Documents, and nothing in this Section 7(b) shall be deemed or construed as altering the priorities or obligations set forth elsewhere in this Agreement. The duties of Senior Agent under this Section 7(b) shall be mechanical and administrative in nature, and Senior Agent shall not have, or be deemed to have, by reason of this Agreement or otherwise a fiduciary relationship in respect of the Subordinated Agent.

8. Legend. Subordinated Agent, Subordinated Creditors and the Obligors shall conspicuously xxxx each Subordinated Debt Document with the following legend:

“Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the lien and security interest granted to the agent pursuant to this agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy by the agent hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Subordination Agreement, dated as of November 14, 2016 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Subordination Agreement”), among East West Bank, as Senior Agent and Praesidian Capital Opportunity Fund III, LP, as Subordinated Agent. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Subordination Agreement and this agreement, the terms of the Subordination Agreement shall govern and control.”

By the execution of this Agreement, Subordinated Agent, on behalf of itself and each Subordinated Creditor, hereby authorizes Senior Agent to amend any financing statements filed by or on behalf of Subordinated Agent or any Subordinated Creditor against any Obligor as follows: “In accordance with a certain Subordination Agreement by and among the Secured Party, the Debtor and East West Bank, as Senior Agent, the Secured Party has subordinated any security interest or lien that Secured Party may have in any property of the Debtor to the security interest of East West Bank, as Senior Agent, in all assets of the Debtor, notwithstanding the respective dates of attachment or perfection of the security interest of the Secured Party and East West Bank.”

9. Cumulative Rights; No Waivers; Termination. Each and every right, remedy and power granted to Senior Agent and any Senior Secured Party hereunder shall be cumulative and in addition to any other right, remedy or power specifically granted in this Agreement, or any Senior Document or now or hereafter existing in equity, at law, by virtue of statute or otherwise, and may be exercised by Senior Agent and any Senior Secured Party, as applicable, from time to time, concurrently or independently and as often and in such order as Senior Agent and any Senior Secured Party, as applicable, may deem expedient. Any failure or delay on the part of Senior Agent or any Senior Secured Party in exercising any such right, remedy or power, or abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce the same, shall not operate as a waiver thereof or affect the rights of Senior Agent or any Senior Secured Party thereafter to exercise the same, and any single or partial exercise of any such right, remedy or power shall not preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy or power, and no such failure, delay, abandonment or single or partial exercise of the rights of Senior Agent or any Senior Secured Party hereunder shall be deemed to establish a custom or course of dealing or performance among the parties hereto. This Agreement is of a continuing nature, and it shall continue in force until all the Senior Debt is Paid in Full and thereafter as provided in Section 11.

10. Amendments.

(a) Modifications to Senior Documents. Senior Agent and Senior Secured Parties may at any time and from time to time without the consent of or notice to Subordinated Agent or any Subordinated Creditor, without incurring liability to Subordinated Agent or any Subordinated Creditor and without impairing or releasing the obligations of Subordinated Agent or any Subordinated Creditor under this Agreement, change any of the terms of, renew, extend, change the manner, time, place and terms of payment of, sell, exchange, release, increase, substitute, surrender, realize upon, modify, waive, alter, grant indulgences with respect to and otherwise deal with in any manner: all or any Senior Debt, all or any of the Senior Documents; all or any part of any Collateral or other property at any time securing all or any Senior Debt; or any Person at any time primarily or secondarily liable for all or any Senior Debt and/or any collateral and security therefor, all as if this Agreement and any interest that Subordinated Agent or any Subordinated Creditor has in such property did not exist; provided that, without the prior written consent of Subordinated Agent, Senior Agent and Senior Secured Parties shall not agree to any amendment, modification or supplement to, or waiver or departure from, the Senior Documents the effect of which is to (a) increase the Revolving Loan Commitment, the principal amount of the Term Loan or the principal amount of any DIP Financing in an amount that would cause the Senior Debt Limit to be exceeded, (b) increase the interest rate, unused line fee or letter of credit fee with respect to the Senior Debt by more than 200 basis points (except as a result of a change in the prime rate or other index set forth in the Senior Credit Agreement for the calculation of same), except in connection with the imposition of a default rate of interest and/or letter of credit fees of up to an additional 5.0% per annum in accordance with the terms of the Senior Documents, (c) extend the final maturity date of the Senior Debt beyond the final maturity date of the Subordinated Debt, ) (d) accelerate the amortization of any portion of the Senior Debt from the amortization currently set forth in the Senior Credit Agreement (other than accelerating the final maturity date as a result of a Senior Default (e) add a provision requiring amortization or reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitment not currently provided for under the Senior Documents, (f) add or make more restrictive any default or any covenant with respect to the Senior Debt or make any more restrictive change to any default or covenant, unless each applicable Obligor offers to make a corresponding amendment to the applicable Subordinated Debt Documents (g) prohibit or restrict the payment of principal of, interest on, or other amounts payable with respect to, the Subordinated Debt in a manner that is more restrictive than the prohibitions and restrictions currently contained in the Senior Credit Agreement or (h) subordinate the Senior Debt to any other indebtedness, except for DIP Financing, and Permitted Liens (as defined in the Senior Credit Agreement) and indebtedness secured by such Permitted Liens.

(b) Modifications to Subordinated Debt Documents. Until the Senior Debt has been Paid in Full, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Subordinated Debt Documents, neither Subordinated Agent nor the Subordinated Creditors shall, without the prior written consent of Senior Agent, agree to any amendment, modification or supplement to the Subordinated Debt Documents the effect of which is to (a) increase the maximum principal amount of the Subordinated Debt or rate of interest on any of the Subordinated Debt, other than the imposition of a default rate of interest of up to an additional 2.0% per annum in accordance with the terms of the Subordinated Debt Document (as in effect on the date hereof), (b) accelerate the amortization of any portion of the Subordinated Debt from the amortization currently set forth in the Subordinated Loan Agreement, (c) add or make more restrictive any default, event of default or any covenant with respect to the Subordinated Debt or make any change to any default or any covenant which would have the effect of making such default or covenant more restrictive than currently set forth in the Subordinated Loan Agreement; provided, that if the Senior Documents are amended or otherwise modified to provide for additional covenants or events of default or to make more restrictive any existing covenants or events of default applicable to the Obligors, then Subordinated Agent and the Subordinated Creditors may, without the prior written consent of Senior Agent, amend the Subordinated Debt Documents to provide for such additional covenants or events of default or such more restrictive covenants or events of default, as the case may be, so long as, in each such case, any applicable cushion is maintained (determined on a percentage basis based on the relevant levels under the Senior Documents and the Subordinated Debt Documents on the date hereof), (d) change any redemption, put or prepayment provisions of the Subordinated Debt, (e) alter the subordination provisions with respect to the Subordinated Debt, including, without limitation, subordinating the Subordinated Debt to any other indebtedness, (f) take or perfect any liens or security interests in any assets of any Obligor or any other obligor on the Subordinated Debt unless Senior Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Senior Secured Parties, also has a lien and security interest on such assets, (g) cause any Person to be obligated, whether primarily, secondarily or otherwise, on the Subordinated Debt other than the Obligors, unless such Person also becomes so obligated on the Senior Debt, (h) subordinate the Subordinated Debt to any other indebtedness except as provided herein, or (i) change or amend any other term of the Subordinated Agreements if such change or amendment would (1) result in a Default or Event of Default under the Senior Credit Agreement or any other Senior Document, (2) increase the obligation of any Obligor, or (3) confer additional material rights on Subordinated Agent or any Subordinated Creditor in any manner adverse to Senior Agent, any Senior Secured Party, or any Obligor, other than, in any case, as a result of an amendment permitted under clause (c) of this Section 10(b).

11. Payment Set Aside. If, after receipt of any payment or application of the proceeds of any Collateral to payment of all or any Senior Debt, Senior Agent or any Senior Secured Party is compelled to surrender or voluntarily surrenders such payment or proceeds to any Person, because such payment or application of proceeds is or may be avoided, invalidated, declared fraudulent, set aside, declared to be void or voidable as a preference, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer, impermissible setoff, diversion of trust funds, or any other void or voidable transfer or payment, or because of any settlement or compromise of such claim, then this Agreement shall be reinstated and shall continue to be in full force and effect, as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Senior Agent or such Senior Secured Party, notwithstanding any revocation thereof, or the surrender of any promissory note, or the return or cancellation of any instrument or document relating to the Senior Credit Agreement or any Senior Document. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Senior Debt shall continue to be treated as Senior Debt and the provisions of this Agreement shall continue to govern the relative rights and priorities of the holders of the Senior Debt, on the one hand, and the holders of the Subordinated Debt, on the other hand, even if all or part of the Senior Debt or the security interests securing the Senior Debt are subordinated, set aside, avoided or disallowed in connection with any such proceedings and the provisions hereof shall be reinstated if at any time any payment of any of the Senior Debt is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any holder of the Senior Debt or any agent, designee or nominee of such holder. This Section 11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

12. Waivers.

(a) Subordinated Agent, on behalf of itself and each Subordinated Creditor, expressly waives all notice of the acceptance by Senior Agent or any Senior Secured Party of the subordination and other provisions of this Agreement and all other notices whatsoever not specifically required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and expressly waives reliance by Senior Agent and any Senior Secured Party upon the subordination and other agreements as herein provided. Subordinated Agent, on behalf of itself and each Subordinated Creditor, agrees that Senior Agent and each Senior Secured Party has made no warranties or representations with respect to the due execution, legality, validity, completeness or enforceability of any Senior Document, or the collectability of any Senior Debt. Senior Agent and each Senior Secured Party shall be entitled to manage and supervise its loans to and affairs with any one or more of the Obligors in accordance with applicable law and its usual practices, modified from time to time as it deems appropriate under the circumstances, without regard to the existence of any rights that Subordinated Agent or any Subordinated Creditor may now or hereafter have in or to any of the assets of any one or more of the Obligors.

(b) Subordinated Agent, on behalf of itself and each Subordinated Creditor, hereby waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any rights which any of them may have to object to, enjoin or otherwise obtain a judicial or administrative order preventing Senior Agent or any Senior Secured Party from taking, or refraining from taking, any action with respect to all or any part of the Collateral (including, without limitation, actions with respect to the creation, perfection or continuation of Liens in the Collateral and other security for the Senior Debt, actions with respect to the occurrence of any default or event of default, actions with respect to the foreclosure upon, sale, release, or depreciation of, or failure to realize upon, any of the Collateral and actions with respect to the collection of any claim for all or any part of the Senior Debt from any account debtor, guarantor or other party), with respect to any of the Senior Documents or any other agreement related thereto, or the exercise of one or more rights or remedies thereunder, or with respect to the collection of the Senior Debt or the valuation, use, protection or release of the Collateral and/or other security for the Senior Debt, the failure to enforce or collect any Senior Debt or Senior Document or exercise any rights or remedies thereunder or under applicable law. Subordinated Agent, on behalf of itself and each Subordinated Creditor, agrees that neither Subordinated Agent nor any Subordinated Creditor shall demand, request, plead or otherwise claim the benefit of, any marshaling, foreclosure, appraisement, valuation or any other right contemplated at law or in equity (whether or not relating to notice, diligence, presentment, demand, protest, setoff, reliance, defense, counterclaim or election) that may otherwise be available to Subordinated Agent or any Subordinated Creditor with respect to Senior Agent or any Senior Secured Party or any of their rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral. Without limitation of the foregoing, Subordinated Agent, on behalf of itself and each Subordinated Creditor, hereby agrees (a) that none of Subordinated Agent or any Subordinated Creditor has any right to direct or object to the manner in which Senior Agent or any Senior Secured Party applies proceeds of the Collateral resulting from the exercise by Senior Agent or any Senior Secured Party of rights and remedies under the Senior Documents to the Senior Debt and (b) that none of Senior Agent or any Senior Secured Party has assumed any obligation to act as the agent for Subordinated Agent or any Subordinated Creditor with respect to the Collateral except as expressly set forth below. In exercising rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral, Senior Agent and Senior Secured Parties may enforce the provisions of the Senior Documents and exercise remedies thereunder, all in such order and in such manner as they may determine in the exercise of commercial reasonableness. Such exercise and enforcement shall include, without limitation, the rights to sell or otherwise dispose of Collateral, to incur expenses in connection with such sale or disposition and to exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured lender under the Uniform Commercial Code of any applicable jurisdiction. In conducting any public or private sale under the Uniform Commercial Code, Senior Agent shall give Subordinated Agent such notice of such sale as may be required by the applicable Uniform Commercial Code; provided, however, that 10 days’ notice shall be deemed to be commercially reasonable notice.

13. Information; Application of Payments. Subordinated Agent, on behalf of itself and each Subordinated Creditor, hereby assumes responsibility for keeping itself informed of the financial condition of each of the Obligors and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Senior Debt and/or the Subordinated Debt that diligent inquiry would reveal, and Subordinated Agent, on behalf of itself and each Subordinated Creditor, hereby agrees that Senior Agent and each Senior Secured Party shall have no duty to advise Subordinated Agent or any other Subordinated Creditor of information known to them regarding such condition or any such circumstances. In the event Senior Agent or any Senior Secured Party, in its sole discretion, undertakes, at any time or from time to time, to provide any such information to Subordinated Agent or any Subordinated Creditor, Senior Agent and such Senior Secured Party shall be under no obligation (a) to provide any such information to Subordinated Agent or such Subordinated Creditor on any subsequent occasion, (b) to undertake any investigation or (c) to disclose any information that Senior Agent or such Senior Secured Party wishes to maintain as confidential. Subordinated Agent, on behalf of itself and each Subordinated Creditor, hereby (i) agrees that all payments received by Senior Agent or any Senior Secured Party may be applied, reversed, and reapplied, in whole or in part, to any of the Senior Debt, as Senior Agent or such Senior Secured Party, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate and (ii) assents to any extension or postponement of the time of payment of the Senior Debt or to any other indulgence with respect thereto, to any substitution, exchange or release of Collateral that may at any time secure the Senior Debt and to the addition or release of any Obligor or any other party or Person primarily or secondarily liable therefor. In the event Subordinated Agent or any Subordinated Creditor becomes obligated to make any payment to any one or more of the Obligors, Subordinated Agent, on behalf of itself and each Subordinated Creditor, hereby irrevocably agrees that, except as provided in Section 3 above, Subordinated Agent or such Subordinated Creditor shall make such payment in cash or cash equivalents in accordance with the terms of the respective agreements governing such obligations, and without setoff or counterclaim of any kind including any setoff against the Subordinated Debt.

14. No Fiduciary Relationship. Subordinated Agent, on behalf of itself and each Subordinated Creditor, agrees that Senior Agent and each Senior Secured Party shall not be deemed or otherwise considered to be acting in any fiduciary capacity on behalf of Subordinated Agent or any Subordinated Creditor or the Subordinated Debt by virtue of this Agreement or otherwise.

15. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon Subordinated Agent, each Subordinated Creditor, each Obligor and their respective heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns, and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Senior Agent, Senior Secured Parties and their respective successors and assigns. Subordinated Agent, on behalf of itself and each Subordinated Creditor, agrees not to sell, assign, pledge, grant a security interest in, dispose of or otherwise transfer all or any portion of any Subordinated Debt (i) without giving prior written notice of such action to Senior Agent, and (ii) unless prior to the consummation of any such action, the transferee thereof shall execute and deliver to Senior Agent an agreement identical to this Agreement (but mutatis mutandis), providing for the continued subordination and forbearance of the Subordinated Debt to the Senior Debt as provided herein and for the continued effectiveness of all of the rights of Senior Agent and the Senior Secured Parties arising under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the failure to execute or deliver any such agreement, the subordination effected hereby shall survive any sale, assignment, pledge, disposition or other transfer of all or any portion of the Subordinated Debt, and the terms of this Agreement shall be binding upon the heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns of Subordinated Agent and each Subordinated Creditor. The Obligors shall not assign any of their rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Senior Agent and Subordinated Agent. This Agreement shall also inure to the benefit of each holder of Senior Debt that exists as a result of a refinancing of Senior Debt. Upon such event, each such other holder of Senior Debt shall be deemed to be Senior Agent for all purposes hereunder.

19. Purchase Option.

(a) Purchase Notice. Within ten (10) Business Days after the date (such 10- Business Day period being an “Exercise Period”), if any, that (i) Senior Agent delivers a notice to Subordinated Agent that the Senior Debt has been accelerated or that Senior Agent intends to commence enforcement action against a material portion of the Collateral as a result of then existing Senior Defaults or (ii) if Senior Agent has not given a notice of acceleration under clause (i) of this section, 90 days after Senior Agent has given a Senior Default Notice based on a Senior Payment Default (unless such notice shall have been rescinded by a further notice to Subordinated Agent), Subordinated Agent shall have the option to purchase from Senior Secured Parties all (but not less than all) of the Senior Debt (including any unfunded commitments) by giving a written notice (the “Purchase Notice”) to Senior Agent prior to the expiration of such Exercise Period. The Purchase Notice from Subordinated Agent to Senior Agent shall be irrevocable. If Senior Agent fails to give a Purchase Notice within an Exercise Period, its rights under this Section 19 shall be terminated with respect to the events described in the notice triggering such Exercise Period.

(b) Purchase Option Closing. On the date specified by Subordinated Agent in the Purchase Notice, which shall not be less than three (3) Business Days nor more than five (5) Business Days after the receipt by Senior Agent of the Purchase Notice (the “PreClosing Period”), Senior Secured Parties shall sell to Subordinated Agent, and Subordinated Agent shall purchase from Senior Secured Parties, all of the Senior Debt (including any unfunded commitments). Notwithstanding anything in this Section 19 to the contrary, none of Senior Agent or the other Senior Secured Parties shall be precluded from (i) the exercise of any rights or remedies as a secured creditor or from seeking to obtain payment directly from any account debtor of any Obligor or the exercise of dominion and control over cash collateral, accounts, instruments, chattel paper, letters of credit, deposit accounts, securities accounts, payment intangibles and supporting obligations (as those terms are defined in the Uniform Commercial Code) with respect to any Senior Debt at any time (including during the Exercise Period or the Pre-Closing Period); provided that Senior Agent shall not, without the consent of the Subordinated Agent, exercise any additional rights and remedies during the Pre-Closing Period other than any demand that account debtors remit such accounts directly to Senior Agent for application to the Senior Debt or the filing of motions and other documents in any Proceeding or the pursuing of other rights and remedies that, in the sole discretion of Senior Agent, are necessary to prevent the loss or impairment of such rights or the diminution of the value or collectability of the Senior Debt or Collateral for such debt during such Pre-Closing Period or (ii) selling or otherwise disposing of the Senior Debt to any other person in accordance with the terms of the Senior Documents, provided that such third party agrees to be bound by this Agreement as to any sale occurring prior to the expiration of the Exercise Period. For the purposes of any Hedging Obligations or associated swaps or agreements, Senior Agent and the other Senior Secured Parties may deem the giving of any Purchase Notice as a default or event of default under the Senior Documents, and any swaps or other agreements governing Hedging Obligations. If the Subordinated Agent fails to close on its purchase on or before the date specified in the Purchase Notice and this Section 19, all rights of the Subordinated Agent under this Section 19 shall terminate.

(c) Purchase Price. Such purchase and sale shall be made by execution and delivery by Subordinated Agent of an Assignment Agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Senior Agent. Upon the date of such purchase and sale, Subordinated Agent shall (i) pay to Senior Secured Parties as the purchase price therefor the full amount of all the Senior Debt then outstanding and unpaid (including principal, interest, fees, LIBOR breakage or similar breakage amounts, and expenses, including financial examination and advisory expenses, appraisal fees and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), (ii) furnish cash collateral to Senior Agent with respect to any outstanding letter of credit obligations in such amounts as are required under the Senior Documents, (iii) cash collateralize any Hedging Obligations that have not been terminated in a manner satisfactory to the applicable counterparties, (iv) agree to reimburse (or if required by Senior Agent, back by standby letters of credit or cash collateral in a manner satisfactory to Senior Agent) Senior Agent and Senior Secured Parties for any loss, cost, damage or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses) in connection with any commissions, fees, costs or expenses related to any issued and outstanding letter of credit obligations under the Senior Documents and Hedging Obligations as described above and any checks or other payments provisionally credited to the Senior Debt, and/or as to which Senior Agent and/or any Senior Secured Party has not yet received final payment, (v) agree to reimburse (or back by stand-by letters of credit or cash collateral in a manner satisfactory to Senior Agent) Senior Agent and Senior Secured Parties in respect of indemnification obligations of the Obligors under the Senior Documents as to matters or circumstances known to or determinable by Subordinated Agent which could result in any loss, cost, damage or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses) to Senior Agent and/or any Senior Secured Party, provided that, in no event will Subordinated Agent have any liability for such amounts under this clause (v) in excess of proceeds of Collateral received by Subordinated Agent, and (vi) obtain a customary release of Senior Agent and the Senior Secured Parties by all Obligors that are then parties to the Senior Documents of and from any further obligations under the Senior Documents and the release by the Subordinated Agent, on behalf of itself and Subordinated Creditors, of Senior Agent and the Senior Secured Parties of any further obligations under this Agreement. Such purchase price and cash collateral shall be remitted by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such bank account of Senior Agent as Senior Agent may designate in writing to Subordinated Agent for such purpose. Interest shall be calculated to but excluding the Business Day on which such purchase and sale shall occur if the amounts so paid by Subordinated Agent to the bank account designated by Senior Agent are received in such bank account prior to 2:00 p.m. Eastern time and interest shall be calculated to and including such Business Day if the amounts so paid by Subordinated Agent to the bank account designated by Senior Agent are received in such bank account later than 2:00 p.m. Eastern time.

(d) Nature of Sale. Such purchase of the Senior Debt shall be (i) made pursuant to agreements, documents and instruments reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Senior Agent and the other Senior Secured Parties (including the releases and indemnities referred to in Section 19(c), (ii) expressly made without any representation or warranty of any kind by Senior Agent or Senior Secured Parties as to the Senior Debt or otherwise and without recourse to Senior Agent or Senior Secured Parties, except for representations and warranties as to the following: (A) the notional amount of the Senior Debt being purchased (including as to the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest on such Senior Debt, and fees and expenses in respect thereof), (B) that Senior Secured Parties own the Senior Debt free and clear of any liens created by Senior Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Senior Secured Parties, and (C) Senior Secured Parties have the full right and power to assign the Senior Debt and such assignment has been duly authorized by all necessary action by Senior Agent and Senior Secured Parties and (iii) upon the representation that Senior Agent and any other purchaser of the Senior Debt is eligible to be an assignee of the Senior Documents and to assume any unperformed obligations of Senior Agent and Senior Secured Parties thereunder. Upon the consummation of the purchase option described in this Section 19, all commitments on the part of Senior Agent and Senior Secured Parties to fund loans or provide Letters of Credit under the Senior Credit Agreement shall be terminated and extinguished. None of the Subordinated Agent or any Subordinated Creditor shall have any claim against Senior Agent or any Senior Secured Party for any remedies or actions taken by Senior Agent and Senior Secured Parties with respect to the Senior Debt or any Collateral securing such Senior Debt.

20. Miscellaneous. Subordinated Agent represents and warrants that all Subordinated Debt is owing only to, and is solely owned directly and beneficially by, Subordinated Creditors free and clear of all Liens, and that no Subordinated Creditor has previously assigned any interest in any Subordinated Debt. This Agreement may be changed, modified or waived only by a writing signed by Subordinated Agent and Senior Agent. All notices to be given under this Agreement must be in writing and shall be effective only when given at the addresses and to the attention of the Persons stated on the Address Schedule attached hereto, or at such other address or to the attention of such other Person as the recipient has designated after the date hereof in writing to the sending party. No party is obligated to give any other party any notices under this Agreement except as expressly set forth herein. Any communication or notice so addressed and mailed shall be deemed to be given (a) three (3) Business Days after deposit in the United States mails, with proper postage prepaid, (b) when sent after receipt of confirmation or answerback if sent by telecopy, or other similar facsimile transmission, (c) one (1) Business Day after deposited with a reputable overnight courier with all charges prepaid, or (d) when delivered, if hand-delivered by messenger. This Agreement may be executed and accepted in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original with the same effect as if the signatures were on the same instrument. The delivery of a copy of an executed counterpart of the signature page to this Agreement by telecopier or other electronic means (including by email) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is deemed to be invalid by reason of the operation of any law or by reason of the interpretation placed thereon by any court or governmental authority, this Agreement shall be construed as not containing such provision and the invalidity of such provision shall not affect the validity of any other provisions hereof, and any and all other provisions hereof that otherwise are lawful and valid shall remain in full force and effect. The provisions of this Agreement shall govern and control in the event of any conflict between any term, covenant or condition of this Agreement and any term, covenant or condition of any Subordinated Notes, any Subordinated Debt Document or any other agreement, instrument or document to which Subordinated Agent or any Subordinated Creditor and any one or more of the Obligors is a party. The section headings of this Agreement are for convenience only and shall have no legal effect.
