(a) any Lien of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent on the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral, whether now or hereafter held by or on behalf of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or any Revolving Credit Claimholders or any agent or trustee therefor, regardless of how acquired, whether by grant, possession, statute, operation of law (pursuant to a judgment or otherwise), subrogation or otherwise, shall be senior in all respects and prior to all Liens on the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral securing any Term Loan Obligations; and

(b) any Lien of the Term Loan Collateral Agent on the Term Loan Primary Collateral, whether now or hereafter held by or on behalf of the Term Loan Collateral Agent, any Term Loan Claimholders or any agent or trustee therefor regardless of how acquired, whether by grant, possession, statute, operation of law (pursuant to a judgment or otherwise), subrogation or otherwise, shall be senior in all respects to all Liens on the Term Loan Primary Collateral securing any Revolving Credit Obligations.

2.2 Prohibition on Contesting Liens. Each of the Term Loan Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of each Term Loan Claimholder, and the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of each Revolving Credit Claimholder, agrees that it will not (and hereby waives any right to) contest or support any other Person in

contesting, in any proceeding (including any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding), the perfection, priority, validity or enforceability of a Lien held by or on behalf of any of the Revolving Credit Claimholders or any of the Term Loan Claimholders in the Collateral, or the provisions of this Agreement; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of either Agent or any Revolving Credit Claimholder or Term Loan Claimholder to enforce this Agreement, including the provisions of this Agreement relating to the priority of the Liens securing the Obligations as provided in Sections 2.1, 3.1 and 3.2.

2.3 No New Liens. So long as the Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations and the Discharge of Term Loan Obligations have not occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against one or more of the Company or any other Grantor, the parties hereto agree that neither the Company nor any other Grantor shall:

(a) grant or permit any additional Liens on any asset or property to secure any Term Loan Obligation unless (i) it has granted or concurrently grants a Lien on such asset or property to secure the Revolving Credit Obligations or (ii) otherwise as permitted in accordance with Section 6.3; or

(b) grant or permit any additional Liens on any asset or property to secure any Revolving Credit Obligations unless (i) it has granted or concurrently grants a Lien on such asset or property to secure the Term Loan Obligations or (ii) otherwise as permitted in accordance with Section 6.3.

To the extent any additional Liens are granted on any asset or property pursuant to this Section 2.3, the priority of such additional Liens shall be determined in accordance with Section 2.1. In addition, to the extent that the foregoing provisions are not complied with for any reason, without limiting any other rights and remedies available hereunder, the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Revolving Credit Claimholders and the Term Loan Collateral Agent, on behalf of Term Loan Claimholders, 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 2.3 shall be subject to Section 4.2.

2.4 Similar Liens and Agreements. The parties hereto agree that it is their intention that, subject to the relative priorities described herein or permitted hereby, the Revolving Credit Collateral and the Term Loan Collateral be identical (it being expressly understood and agreed that none of the Revolving Credit Claimholders and none of the Term Loan Claimholders make any representation, warranty or agreement to any other party hereto as to whether the Revolving Credit Collateral and the Term Loan Collateral are identical). In furtherance of the foregoing and of Section 8.8, the parties hereto agree, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, upon request by the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or the Term Loan Collateral Agent, to cooperate in good faith (and to direct their counsel to cooperate in good faith) from time to time in order to determine the specific items included in the Revolving Credit Collateral and the Term Loan Collateral and the steps taken to perfect their respective Liens thereon and the identity of the respective parties obligated under the Revolving Credit Loan Documents and the Term Loan Documents.

SECTION 3. Enforcement.

3.1 Exercise of Remedies – Restrictions on Term Loan Collateral Agent.

(a) Until (i) the Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations has occurred and (ii) the Revolving Credit Agreement is no longer in effect, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against any Grantor, the Term Loan Collateral Agent and the Term Loan Claimholders:

(1) will not exercise or seek to exercise any rights or remedies with respect to any Revolving Credit Primary Collateral (including the exercise of any right of setoff, notification of account debtors or any right under any lockbox agreement, account control agreement, landlord waiver or bailee’s letter or similar agreement or arrangement to which the Term Loan Collateral Agent or any Term Loan Claimholder is a party) or institute any action or proceeding with respect to such rights or remedies (including any action of foreclosure); provided, however, that the Term Loan Collateral Agent may exercise the rights provided for in Section 3.3 (with respect to any Mortgage Access Period) and may exercise any or all such other rights or remedies after the passage of a period of at least 180 days has elapsed since the later of: (i) the date on which the Term Loan Collateral Agent declared the existence of a Term Loan Default and demanded the repayment of all the principal amount of any Term Loan Obligations; and (ii) the date on which the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent received notice from the Term Loan Collateral Agent of such declaration of a Term Loan Default and demand for payment (the “Term Loan Standstill Period”); provided, further, however, that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Term Loan Collateral Agent or any Term Loan Claimholder exercise any rights or remedies (other than those under Section 3.3) with respect to the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral (unless (i) the final step triggering the “one action rule” or any similar legal provision in any applicable state has occurred and (ii) the applicable Term Loan Claimholder has provided written notice to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent no later than five days prior to the commencement of such final step of its exercise of any rights or remedies permitted hereunder) if, notwithstanding the expiration of the Term Loan Standstill Period, the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or Revolving Credit Claimholders shall have commenced and be diligently pursuing the exercise of their rights or remedies with respect to all or any material portion of such Collateral or in any event as to any specific assets constituting Revolving Credit Primary Collateral as to which Revolving Credit Collateral Agent has commenced and is diligently pursuing such rights or remedies (and to the extent that Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or Revolving Credit Claimholders shall have commenced such action as to such specific assets after the end of the Term Loan Standstill Period, Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or Revolving Credit Claimholders shall have provided at least three Business Days’ prior notice of such exercise to the Term Loan Collateral Agent);

(2) will not contest, protest or object to any foreclosure proceeding or action brought by the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or any Revolving Credit Claimholder or any other exercise by the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or any Revolving Credit Claimholder of any rights and remedies relating to the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral, whether under the Revolving Credit Loan Documents or otherwise; and

(3) subject to their rights under clause (a)(1) above and except as may be permitted in Section 3.1(c), will not object to the forbearance by the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or any of the Revolving Credit Claimholders from bringing or pursuing any Enforcement;

provided, however, that, in the case of (1), (2) and (3) above, the Liens granted to secure the Term Loan Obligations of the Term Loan Claimholders shall attach to the proceeds thereof subject to the relative priorities described in Section 2.

(b) Until (i) the Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations has occurred and (ii) the Revolving Credit Agreement is no longer in effect, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against any Grantor, the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and the Revolving Credit Claimholders shall have the right to enforce rights, exercise remedies (including set-off and the right to credit bid their debt) and, in connection therewith (including voluntary Dispositions of Revolving Credit Primary Collateral by the respective Grantors after a Revolving Credit Default) make determinations regarding the release, disposition, or restrictions with respect to the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral without any consultation with or the consent of the Term Loan Collateral Agent or any Term Loan Claimholder; provided, however, that the Lien securing the Term Loan Obligations shall remain on the proceeds (other than those properly applied to the Revolving Credit Obligations) of such Collateral released or disposed of subject to the relative priorities described in Section 2. In exercising rights and remedies with respect to the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral, the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and the Revolving Credit Claimholders may enforce the provisions of the Revolving Credit Loan Documents and exercise remedies thereunder, all in such order and in such manner as they may determine in the exercise of their sole discretion. Such exercise and enforcement shall include the rights of an agent appointed by them to sell or otherwise dispose of the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral upon foreclosure, to incur expenses in connection with such sale or other disposition, and to exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured creditor under the UCC and of a secured creditor under the Bankruptcy Laws of any applicable jurisdiction.

(1) file a claim or statement of interest with respect to the Term Loan Obligations; provided that an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against any Grantor;

(2) take any action as is required in order to create, perfect, preserve or protect its Lien on any of the Collateral, but not enforce its Lien or otherwise exercise any rights or remedies with respect to any Revolving Credit Primary Collateral upon a default or event of default or take any action that would be adverse to the Liens of Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or interfere with the exercise by Revolving Credit Collateral Agent of its rights or remedies with respect to the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral or otherwise adverse to the priority status of the Liens on the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral, or the rights of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or the Revolving Credit Claimholders to exercise remedies in respect thereof or otherwise prohibited hereunder;

(3) file any necessary responsive or defensive pleadings in opposition to any motion, claim, adversary proceeding or other pleading made by any person objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of the claims of the Term Loan Claimholders, including any claims secured by the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral, if any, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Agreement;

(4) file any pleadings, objections, motions or agreements which assert rights or interests available to unsecured creditors of the Grantors arising under either any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or applicable non-bankruptcy law, in each case not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement;

(5) vote on any plan of reorganization, file any proof of claim, make other filings and make any arguments and motions that are, in each case, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, with respect to the Term Loan Obligations and the Term Loan Primary Collateral; and

(6) exercise any of its rights or remedies with respect to any of the Collateral after the termination of the Term Loan Standstill Period to the extent permitted by Section 3.1(a)(1); provided that until the Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations, the proceeds of any Revolving Credit Primary Collateral are delivered to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent for application to the Revolving Credit Obligations in accordance with Sections 4.1 and 4.2.

The Term Loan Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Term Loan Claimholders, agrees that it will not take or receive any Revolving Credit Primary Collateral or any proceeds of such Collateral in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy (including set-off or notification of account debtors) with respect to any such Collateral in its capacity as a creditor in violation of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, unless and until the Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations has occurred, except as expressly provided in Sections 3.1(a), 6.3(c)(1) and this Section

3.1(c), the sole right of the Term Loan Collateral Agent and the Term Loan Claimholders with respect to the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral is to hold a Lien on such Collateral pursuant to the Term Loan Collateral Documents for the period and to the extent granted therein and to receive a share of the proceeds thereof, if any, after the Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations has occurred. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, until the Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations, all proceeds of Revolving Credit Primary Collateral, from whatever source, and whether resulting from the exercise of remedies or otherwise, shall be delivered to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and applied in accordance with Sections 4.1 and 4.2, and the Term Loan Collateral Agent and Term Loan Claimholders shall have no rights with respect to such proceeds other than as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence (and which such rights with respect to such proceeds shall be extinguished upon the application of such proceeds to the payment of the Revolving Credit Obligations in accordance with Section 4.1).

(d) Subject to Sections 3.1(a) and (c) and Section 6.3(c)(1):

(1) the Term Loan Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Term Loan Claimholders, agrees that the Term Loan Collateral Agent and the Term Loan Claimholders will not take any action that would hinder any exercise of remedies under the Revolving Credit Loan Documents or that is otherwise prohibited hereunder, including any sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral, whether by foreclosure or otherwise;

(2) the Term Loan Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Term Loan Claimholders, hereby waives any and all rights it or the Term Loan Claimholders may have as a junior lien creditor or otherwise to object to the manner in which the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or the Revolving Credit Claimholders seek to enforce or collect the Revolving Credit Obligations or the Liens securing the Revolving Credit Obligations granted in any of the Revolving Credit Loan Documents or undertaken in accordance with this Agreement, regardless of whether any action or failure to act by or on behalf of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or Revolving Credit Claimholders is adverse to the interest of the Term Loan Claimholders; and

(3) the Term Loan Collateral Agent hereby acknowledges and agrees that no covenant, agreement or restriction contained in the Term Loan Collateral Documents or any other Term Loan Document (other than this Agreement) shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights and remedies of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or the Revolving Credit Claimholders with respect to the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral as set forth in this Agreement and the Revolving Credit Loan Documents.

(e) Except as otherwise specifically set forth in Sections 3.1(a) and (d) and 3.5, the Term Loan Collateral Agent and the Term Loan Claimholders may exercise

rights and remedies as unsecured creditors against any Grantor and may exercise rights and remedies with respect to the Term Loan Primary Collateral, in each case, in accordance with the terms of the Term Loan Documents and applicable law; provided, however, that in the event that any Term Loan Claimholder becomes a judgment Lien creditor in respect of Revolving Credit Primary Collateral as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor with respect to the Term Loan Obligations, such judgment Lien shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement for all purposes (including in relation to the Revolving Credit Obligations) as the other Liens securing the Term Loan Obligations are subject to this Agreement.

(f) Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by the Term Loan Collateral Agent or any Term Loan Claimholders of the required payments of interest, principal and other amounts owed in respect of the Term Loan Obligations so long as such receipt is not the direct or indirect result of the exercise by the Term Loan Collateral Agent or any Term Loan Claimholders of rights or remedies as a secured creditor (including set-off or notification of account debtors) or enforcement in contravention of this Agreement of any Lien held by any of them and except as otherwise provided in Section 4.1 of this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement impairs or otherwise adversely affects any rights or remedies the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or the Revolving Credit Claimholders may have against the Grantors under the Revolving Credit Loan Documents.

3.2 Exercise of Remedies – Restrictions on Revolving Credit Collateral Agent.

(a) Until (i) the Discharge of Term Loan Obligations has occurred and (ii) the Term Loan Agreement is no long in effect, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against any Grantor, the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and the Revolving Credit Claimholders:

(1) will not exercise or seek to exercise any rights or remedies with respect to any Term Loan Primary Collateral (including the exercise of any right of setoff, notification of account debtors or any right under any lockbox agreement, account control agreement, landlord waiver or bailee’s letter or similar agreement or arrangement to which the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or any Revolving Credit Claimholder is a party) or institute any action or proceeding with respect to such rights or remedies (including any action of foreclosure); provided, however, that the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent may exercise the rights provided for in Section 3.4 (with respect to any Equipment Access Period) and may exercise any or all such other rights or remedies after the passage of a period of at least 180 days has elapsed since the later of: (i) the date on which the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent declared the existence of any Revolving Credit Default and demanded the repayment of all the principal amount of any Revolving Credit Obligations; and (ii) the date on which the Term Loan Collateral Agent received notice from the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent of such declaration of a Revolving Credit Default and demand for payment, (the “Revolving Credit

Standstill Period”); provided, further, however, that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or any Revolving Credit Claimholder exercise any rights or remedies (other than those under Section 3.3) with respect to the Term Loan Primary Collateral (unless (i) the final step triggering the “one action rule” or any similar legal provision in any applicable state has occurred and (ii) the applicable Revolving Credit Claimholder has provided written notice to the Term Loan Collateral Agent no later than five days prior to the commencement of such final step of its exercise of any rights or remedies permitted hereunder) if, notwithstanding the expiration of the Revolving Credit Standstill Period, the Term Loan Collateral Agent or Term Loan Claimholders shall have commenced and be diligently pursuing the exercise of their rights or remedies with respect to all or any material portion of such Collateral or in any event as to any specific assets constituting Term Loan Primary Collateral as to which Term Loan Collateral Agent has commenced and is diligently pursuing such rights or remedies (and to the extent that Term Loan Collateral Agent or Term Loan Claimholders shall have commenced such action as to such specific assets after the end of the Revolving Credit Standstill Period, Term Loan Collateral Agent or Term Loan Claimholders shall have provided at least three Business Days’ prior notice of such exercise to the Revolving Collateral Agent);

(2) will not contest, protest or object to any foreclosure proceeding or action brought by the Term Loan Collateral Agent or any Term Loan Claimholder or any other exercise by the Term Loan Collateral Agent or any Term Loan Claimholder of any rights and remedies relating to the Term Loan Primary Collateral, whether under the Term Loan Documents or otherwise; and

(3) subject to their rights under clause (a)(1) above and except as may be permitted in Section 3.2(c), will not object to the forbearance by the Term Loan Collateral Agent or the Term Loan Claimholders from bringing or pursuing any Enforcement;

provided, however, that in the case of (1), (2) and (3) above, the Liens granted to secure the Revolving Credit Obligations of the Revolving Credit Claimholders shall attach to the proceeds thereof subject to the relative priorities described in Section 2.

(b) Until (i) the Discharge of Term Loan Obligations has occurred and (ii) the Term Loan Agreement is no long in effect, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against any Grantor, the Term Loan Collateral Agent and the Term Loan Claimholders shall have the right to enforce rights, exercise remedies (including set-off and the right to credit bid their debt) and, in connection therewith (including voluntary Dispositions of Term Loan Primary Collateral by the respective Grantors after a Term Loan Default) make determinations regarding the release, disposition, or restrictions with respect to the Term Loan Primary Collateral without any consultation with or the consent of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or any Revolving Credit Claimholder; provided, however, that the Lien securing the Revolving Credit

Obligations shall remain on the proceeds (other than those properly applied to the Term Loan Obligations) of such Collateral released or disposed of subject to the relative priorities described in Section 2. In exercising rights and remedies with respect to the Term Loan Primary Collateral, the Term Loan Collateral Agent and the Term Loan Claimholders may enforce the provisions of the Term Loan Documents and exercise remedies thereunder, all in such order and in such manner as they may determine in the exercise of their sole discretion. Such exercise and enforcement shall include the rights of an agent appointed by them to sell or otherwise dispose of the Term Loan Primary Collateral upon foreclosure, to incur expenses in connection with such sale or other disposition, and to exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured creditor under the UCC and of a secured creditor under the Bankruptcy Laws of any applicable jurisdiction.

(1) file a claim or statement of interest with respect to the Revolving Credit Obligations; provided that an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against any Grantor;

(2) take any action as is required in order to create, perfect, preserve or protect its Lien on any of the Collateral, but not enforce its Lien or otherwise exercise any rights or remedies with respect to any Term Loan Primary Collateral upon a default or event of default or take any action that would be adverse to the Liens of Term Loan Collateral Agent or interfere with the exercise by Term Loan Collateral Agent of its rights or remedies with respect to the Term Loan Primary Collateral or otherwise adverse to the priority status of the Liens on the Term Loan Primary Collateral, or the rights of the Term Loan Collateral Agent or any of the Term Loan Claimholders to exercise remedies in respect thereof or otherwise prohibited hereunder;

(3) file any necessary responsive or defensive pleadings in opposition to any motion, claim, adversary proceeding or other pleading made by any person objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of the claims of the Revolving Credit Claimholders, including any claims secured by the Term Loan Primary Collateral, if any, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Agreement;

(5) vote on any plan of reorganization, file any proof of claim, make other filings and make any arguments and motions that are, in each case, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, with respect to the Revolving Credit Obligations and the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral; and

(6) exercise any of its rights or remedies with respect to any of the Collateral after the termination of the Revolving Credit Standstill Period to the extent permitted by Section 3.2(a)(1); provided that until the Discharge of Term Loan Obligations, the proceeds of any Term Loan Primary Collateral are delivered to the Term Loan Collateral Agent for application to the Term Loan Obligations in accordance with Sections 4.1 and 4.2.

The Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Revolving Credit Claimholders, agrees that it will not take or receive any Term Loan Primary Collateral or any proceeds of such Collateral in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy (including set-off notification of account debtors) with respect to any such Collateral in its capacity as a creditor in violation of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, unless and until the Discharge of Term Loan Obligations has occurred, except as expressly provided in Sections 3.2(a), 3.3, 6.3(c)(2) and this Section 3.2(c), the sole right of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and the Revolving Credit Claimholders with respect to the Term Loan Primary Collateral is to hold a Lien on such Collateral pursuant to the Revolving Credit Collateral Documents for the period and to the extent granted therein and to receive a share of the proceeds thereof, if any, after the Discharge of Term Loan Obligations has occurred. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, until the Discharge of Term Loan Obligations, all proceeds of Term Loan Primary Collateral, from whatever source, and whether resulting from the exercise of remedies or otherwise, shall be delivered to the Term Loan Collateral Agent and applied in accordance with Sections 4.1 and 4.2, and the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and Revolving Credit Claimholders shall have no rights with respect to such proceeds other than as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence (and which such rights with respect to such proceeds shall be extinguished upon the application of such proceeds to the payment of the Term Loan Obligations in accordance with Section 4.1).

(d) Subject to Sections 3.2(a) and (c) and Sections 3.3 and 6.3(c)(2):

(1) the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Revolving Credit Claimholders, agrees that the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and the Revolving Credit Claimholders will not take any action that would hinder any exercise of remedies under the Term Loan Documents or that is otherwise prohibited hereunder, including any sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of the Term Loan Primary Collateral, whether by foreclosure or otherwise;

(2) the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Revolving Credit Claimholders, hereby waives any and all rights it or the Revolving Credit Claimholders may have as a junior lien creditor or otherwise to object to the manner in which the Term Loan Collateral Agent or the Term Loan Claimholders seek to enforce or collect the Term Loan Obligations or the Liens securing the Term Loan Obligations granted in any of the Term Loan Documents or undertaken in accordance with this Agreement, regardless of whether any action or failure to act by or on behalf of the Term Loan Collateral Agent or Term Loan Claimholders is adverse to the interest of the Revolving Credit Claimholders; and

(3) the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent hereby acknowledges and agrees that no covenant, agreement or restriction contained in the Revolving Credit Collateral Documents or any other Revolving Credit Loan Document (other than this Agreement) shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights and remedies of the Term Loan Collateral Agent or the Term Loan Claimholders with respect to the Term Loan Primary Collateral as set forth in this Agreement and the Term Loan Documents.

(e) Except as otherwise specifically set forth in Sections 3.2(a) and (d) and 3.5, the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and the Revolving Credit Claimholders may exercise rights and remedies as unsecured creditors against any Grantor and may exercise rights and remedies with respect to the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral, in each case, in accordance with the terms of the Revolving Credit Loan Documents and applicable law; provided, however, that in the event that any Revolving Credit Claimholder becomes a judgment Lien creditor in respect of Term Loan Primary Collateral as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor with respect to the Revolving Credit Obligations, such judgment Lien shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement for all purposes (including in relation to the Term Loan Obligations) as the other Liens securing the Revolving Credit Obligations are subject to this Agreement.

(f) Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or any Revolving Credit Claimholders of the required payments of interest, principal and other amounts owed in respect of the Revolving Credit Obligations so long as such receipt is not the direct or indirect result of the exercise by the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or any Revolving Credit Claimholders of rights or remedies as a secured creditor (including set-off) or enforcement in contravention of this Agreement of any Lien held by any of them and except as otherwise provided in Section 4.1 of this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement impairs or otherwise adversely affects any rights or remedies the Term Loan Collateral Agent or the Term Loan Claimholders may have against the Grantors under the Tern Loan Documents.

3.3 Exercise of Remedies – Collateral Access Rights.

(a) The Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and Term Loan Collateral Agent agree not to commence Enforcement until an Enforcement Notice has been given to the other Agent. Subject to the provisions of Sections 3.1 and 3.2 above, either Agent may join in any judicial proceedings commenced by the other Agent to enforce Liens on the Collateral, provided that neither Agent, nor the Revolving Credit Claimholders or Term Loan Claimholders, as the case may be, shall interfere with the Enforcement actions of the other with respect to Collateral in which such party has the priority Lien in accordance herewith.

(b) If the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, or any agent or representative of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, or any receiver, shall obtain possession or physical control of any parcel of the Mortgaged Premises, the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent shall promptly notify the Term Loan Collateral Agent of that fact and the Term Loan Collateral Agent shall, within ten (10) Business Days thereafter, notify the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent as to whether the Term Loan Collateral Agent desires to exercise access rights under this Agreement as to such parcel of the Mortgaged Premises, at which time the parties shall confer in good faith to coordinate with respect to the Term Loan Collateral Agent’s exercise of such access rights. Access rights may apply to differing parcels of Mortgaged Premises at differing times, in which case, a differing Mortgage Access Period may apply to each such property.

(c) Upon delivery of notice to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent as provided in Section 3.3(b), the Mortgage Access Period shall commence for the subject parcel of Mortgaged Premises. During the Mortgage Access Period as to any parcel of such Mortgaged Premises, the Term Loan Collateral Agent and its agents, representatives and designees shall have a non-exclusive right to have access to, and a rent free right to use, the parcel of the Mortgaged Premises for the purpose of arranging for and effecting the sale or other disposition of Term Loan Primary Collateral, including the production, completion, packaging and other preparation of such Term Loan Primary Collateral for sale or other disposition. During any such Mortgage Access Period, the Term Loan Collateral Agent and its representatives (and persons employed on their behalf) may continue to operate, service, maintain, process and sell the Term Loan Primary Collateral, as well as to engage in bulk sales of Term Loan Primary Collateral. Term Loan Collateral Agent shall take proper care of any Revolving Credit Primary Collateral that is used by Term Loan Collateral Agent during the Mortgage Access Period and repair and replace any damage (ordinary wear-and-tear excepted) caused by Term Loan Collateral Agent or its agents, representatives or and Term Loan Collateral Agent shall comply with all applicable laws in connection with its use or occupancy of any of the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral. The Term Loan Collateral Agent and the Term Loan Claimholders shall indemnify and hold harmless the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and the Revolving Credit Claimholders for any injury or damage to Persons or property caused by the acts or omissions of Persons under its control. The Term Loan Collateral Agent and the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent shall cooperate and use reasonable efforts to ensure that their activities during the Mortgage Access Period as described above do not interfere materially with the activities of the other as described above, including the right of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent to show the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral to prospective purchasers and to ready the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral for sale.

(d) If any order or injunction is issued or stay is granted which prohibits the Term Loan Collateral Agent from exercising its rights hereunder as to a parcel of the Mortgaged Premises, then at the Term Loan Collateral Agent’s option, the Mortgage Access Period granted to the Term Loan Collateral Agent under this Section 3.3 for such parcel shall be stayed as to such parcel during the period of such prohibition and shall continue thereafter as to such parcel for the number of days remaining as required under

this Section 3.3. If the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent shall foreclose or otherwise sell any of the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral, the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent will notify the buyer thereof of the existence of this Agreement and that the buyer is acquiring the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral subject to the terms of this Agreement to the extent applicable.

(e) The Grantors hereby agree with the Agents that the Term Loan Collateral Agent shall have access, during the Mortgage Access Period, as described herein and each such Grantor that owns any of the Mortgaged Premises grants a non-exclusive easement in gross over its property to permit the uses by the Term Loan Collateral Agent contemplated by this Section 3.3. The Revolving Credit Collateral Agent consents to such easement and to the recordation of a collateral access easement agreement, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, in the relevant real estate records with respect to each parcel of Real Estate that is now or hereafter subject to a Revolving Credit Mortgage. The Term Loan Collateral Agent agrees that upon either a Discharge of Term Loan Obligations or the expiration of the final Mortgage Access Period with respect to any parcel of property covered by a Revolving Credit Mortgage, it shall, upon request, execute and deliver to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, or if a Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations has occurred, to the respective Grantor, such documentation, in recordable form, as may reasonably be requested to terminate any and all rights with respect to such Mortgage Access Periods.

3.4 Exercise of Remedies – Intellectual Property Rights/Access to Information.

(a) The Term Loan Collateral Agent and each Grantor hereby grants (to the full extent of their respective rights and interests) the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and its agents, representatives and designees (a) a royalty free, rent free non-exclusive license and lease to use, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a Revolving Credit Default, all of the Term Loan Primary Collateral constituting Intellectual Property, to complete the sale of inventory, the collection of accounts or other realization on any Revolving Credit Primary Collateral and (b) a royalty free non-exclusive license (which will be binding on any successor or assignee of the Intellectual Property) to use any and all Intellectual Property at any time in connection with its realization on any Revolving Credit Primary Collateral; provided, however, the royalty free, rent free non-exclusive license and lease granted in clause (a) shall immediately expire upon the sale, lease, transfer or other disposition of such inventory, the collection of all accounts and the realization on any other Revolving Credit Primary Collateral for which such Intellectual Property is necessary or desirable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any purchaser or assignee of Revolving Credit Primary Collateral pursuant to the exercise by Revolving Credit Collateral Agent of any of its rights or remedies with respect thereto shall have the right to sell or otherwise dispose of any such Revolving Credit Primary Collateral to which any such Intellectual Property is affixed.

(b) If the Term Loan Collateral Agent, or any agent or representative of the Term Loan Collateral Agent, or any receiver, shall obtain possession or physical control

of any Equipment for which the use of such Equipment is necessary or desirable in connection with any Enforcement in respect of any Revolving Credit Primary Collateral, the Term Loan Collateral Agent shall promptly notify the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent of that fact and the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent shall, within ten (10) Business Days thereafter, notify the Term Loan Collateral Agent as to whether the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent desires to exercise access and use rights under this Agreement as to such item of Equipment, at which time the parties shall confer in good faith to coordinate with respect to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent’s exercise of such access rights. Access rights may apply to differing items of Equipment at differing times, in which case, a differing Equipment Access Period may apply to each such property.

(c) Upon delivery of notice to the Term Loan Collateral Agent as provided in Section 3.4(b), the Equipment Access Period shall commence for the subject Equipment.

(c) To effectuate the foregoing, the Agents shall each receive separate lender’s loss payable endorsements naming themselves as loss payee and additional insured, as their interests may appear, with respect to policies which insure Collateral hereunder.

5.3 Amendments to Revolving Credit Loan Documents and Term Loan Documents; Refinancing.

(a) The Term Loan Documents may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified in accordance with their terms and the Term Loan Agreement may be Refinanced, in each case, without notice to, or the consent of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or the Revolving Credit Claimholders, all without affecting the lien subordination or other provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that the holders of such Refinancing debt bind themselves in a writing addressed to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and the Revolving Credit Claimholders to the terms of this Agreement and any such amendment, supplement, modification or Refinancing shall not:

5.4 Bailees for Perfection.

(a) Each Agent agrees to hold that part of the Collateral that is in its possession or control (or in the possession or control of its agents or bailees) to the extent that possession or control thereof is taken to perfect a Lien thereon under the UCC (such Collateral being the “Pledged Collateral”) as collateral agent for the Revolving Credit Claimholders or the Term Loan Claimholders, as the case may be, and as bailee for the other Agent (such bailment being intended, among other things, to satisfy the requirements of Sections 8-106(d)(3), 8-301(a)(2) and 9-313(c) of the UCC) and any assignee solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted under the Revolving Credit Loan Documents and the Term Loan Documents, respectively, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.4.

(b) Neither Agent shall have any obligation whatsoever to the other Agent, to any Revolving Credit Claimholder, or to any Term Loan Claimholder to ensure that the Pledged Collateral is genuine or owned by any of the Grantors or to preserve rights or benefits of any Person except as expressly set forth in this Section 5.4. The duties or responsibilities of the respective Agents under this Section 5.4 shall be limited solely to holding the Pledged Collateral as bailee in accordance with this Section 5.4 and delivering the Pledged Collateral upon a Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations or Discharge of Term Loan Obligations, as the case may be, as provided in paragraph (d) below.

(c) Neither Agent acting pursuant to this Section 5.4 shall have by reason of the Revolving Credit Loan Documents, the Term Loan Documents, this Agreement or any other document a fiduciary relationship in respect of the other Agent, or any Revolving Credit Claimholders or any Term Loan Claimholders.

(d) Upon the Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations or the Discharge of Term Loan Obligations, as the case may be, except as otherwise required by applicable law, the Agent under the credit facility which has been discharged shall (i) deliver the remaining Pledged Collateral (if any) together with any necessary endorsements, first, to the other Agent to the extent the other Obligations remain

outstanding, and second, to the applicable Grantor to the extent no Revolving Credit Obligations or Term Loan Obligations remain outstanding (in each case, so as to allow such Person to obtain possession or control of such Pledged Collateral) and (ii) take all other action reasonably requested by the other Agent in connection with the other Agent obtaining a first-priority security interest in the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral (in the case of the Term Loan Collateral Agent upon the Discharge of the Revolving Credit Obligations) or the Term Loan Primary Collateral (in the case of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent upon the Discharge of the Term Loan Obligations), as the case may be, to the extent that the other Agent is entitled to a first-priority security interest therein at the expense of such other Agent and subject to such other liens that may have priority over the security interest of such other Agent or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

(e) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, (i) so long as the Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations has not occurred, the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent shall be entitled to deal with the Pledged Collateral or Collateral within its “control” in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and other Revolving Credit Loan Documents, but only to the extent that such Collateral constitutes Revolving Credit Primary Collateral, as if the Liens of the Term Loan Collateral Agent and Term Loan Claimholders did not exist and (ii) so long as the Discharge of Term Loan Obligations has not occurred, the Term Loan Collateral Agent shall be entitled to deal with the Pledged Collateral or Collateral within its “control” in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and other Term Loan Documents, but only to the extent that such Collateral constitutes Term Loan Primary Collateral, as if the Liens of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and Revolving Credit Claimholders did not exist.

(f) The parties hereto acknowledge that certain third parties, including without limitation, landlords, insurance companies, depository institutions and securities and commodities intermediaries (collectively, the “Third Parties”) have executed and delivered in favor of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and the Term Loan Collateral Agent certain agreements, instruments and other documents (including, without limitation, landlord waivers, insurance endorsements, lockbox agreements and control agreements) (collectively, the “Third Party Agreements”) pursuant to which, among other things, either the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or the Term Loan Collateral Agent (such party being referred to as the “Superior Lienholder”) shall be entitled to deliver notices to such Third Parties, cause such Third Parties to take certain action (or consent to the taking of such actions) or otherwise exercise rights and remedies under such Third Party Agreements. The parties hereto hereby agree that, until the Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations, the Superior Lienholder shall be the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent. Promptly upon the Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations, the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent shall deliver a written notice to each Third Party stating that the Term Loan Collateral Agent is now the Superior Lienholder, that the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent is no longer entitled to deliver any consents under such Third Party Agreements and such other information required by the relevant Third Party Agreements necessary to permit the Term Loan Collateral Agent to exercise any rights or take any action reserved for the Superior Lienholder thereunder.

5.5 When Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations and Discharge of Term Loan Obligations Deemed to Not Have Occurred. If concurrently with the Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations or the Discharge of Term Loan Obligations, the Company thereafter enters into any Refinancing of any Revolving Credit Obligation or Term Loan Obligation as the case may be, which Refinancing is permitted by both the Term Loan Documents and the Revolving Credit Loan Documents, then such Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations or the Discharge of Term Loan Obligations shall automatically be deemed not to have occurred for all purposes of this Agreement (other than with respect to any actions taken as a result of the occurrence of such first Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations or the Discharge of Term Loan Obligations) and, from and after the date on which the New Debt Notice is delivered to the appropriate Agent in accordance with the next sentence, the obligations under such Refinancing shall automatically be treated as Revolving Credit Obligations or Term Loan Obligations for all purposes of this Agreement, including for purposes of the Lien priorities and rights in respect of Collateral set forth herein, and the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or Term Loan Collateral Agent, as the case may be, under such new Revolving Credit Loan Documents or new Term Loan Documents shall be the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or the Term Loan Collateral Agent for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon receipt of a notice (the “New Debt Notice”) stating that the Company has entered into new Revolving Credit Loan Documents or new Term Loan Documents (which notice shall include a complete copy of the relevant new documents and provide the identity of the new collateral agent, such agent, the “New Agent”), the other Agent shall promptly (a) enter into such documents and agreements (including amendments or supplements to this Agreement) as the Company or such New Agent shall reasonably request in order to provide to the New Agent the rights contemplated hereby, in each case consistent in all material respects with the terms of this Agreement and (b) deliver to the New Agent any Pledged Collateral (that is Term Loan Primary Collateral, in the case of a New Agent that is the agent under any new Term Loan Documents or that is Revolving Credit Primary Collateral, in the case of a New Agent that is the agent under any new Revolving Credit Loan Documents) held by it together with any necessary endorsements (or otherwise allow the New Agent to obtain control of such Pledged Collateral). The New Agent shall agree in a writing addressed to the other Agent and the Revolving Credit Claimholders or the Term Loan Claimholders, as the case may be, to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. If the new Revolving Credit Obligations under the new Revolving Credit Loan Documents or the new Term Loan Obligations under the new Term Loan Documents are secured by assets of the Grantors constituting Collateral that do not also secure the other Obligations, then the other Obligations shall be secured at such time by a second priority Lien on such assets to the same extent provided in the Revolving Credit Loan Documents, Term Loan Collateral Documents and this Agreement.

5.6 Purchase Right.

(a) Without prejudice to the enforcement of the Term Loan Claimholders’ remedies, the Term Loan Claimholders agree at any time following an acceleration of the Term Loan Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Term Loan Agreement, the Term Loan Claimholders will offer the Revolving Credit Claimholders the option to purchase the entire aggregate amount of outstanding Term Loan Obligations at par (without regard to any prepayment penalty or premium), without warranty or representation or recourse, on a pro rata basis across Term Loan Claimholders. The Revolving Credit Claimholders shall irrevocably accept or reject such offer within ten (10) Business Days of the receipt thereof and the parties shall endeavor to close promptly thereafter. If the Revolving Credit Claimholders accept such offer, it shall be exercised pursuant to documentation mutually acceptable to each of the Term Loan Collateral Agent and the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent. If the Revolving Credit Claimholders reject such offer (or do not so irrevocably accept such offer within the required timeframe), the Term Loan Claimholders shall have no further obligations pursuant to this Section 5.6 and may take any further actions in their sole discretion in accordance with the Term Loan Documents and this Agreement.

(b) Without prejudice to the enforcement of the Revolving Credit Claimholders’ remedies, the Revolving Credit Claimholders agree at any time following an acceleration of the Revolving Credit Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Revolving Credit Agreement, the Revolving Credit Claimholders will offer the Term Loan Claimholders the option to purchase the entire aggregate amount of outstanding Revolving Credit Obligations (including unfunded commitments under the Revolving Credit Agreement) at par (without regard to any prepayment penalty or premium), without warranty or representation or recourse, on a pro rata basis across Revolving Credit Claimholders. The Term Loan Claimholders shall irrevocably accept or reject such offer within ten (10) Business Days of the receipt thereof and the parties shall endeavor to close promptly thereafter. If the Term Loan Claimholders accept such offer, it shall be exercised pursuant to documentation mutually acceptable to each of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and the Term Loan Collateral Agent. If the Term Loan Claimholders reject such offer (or do not so irrevocably accept such offer within the required timeframe), the Revolving Credit Claimholders shall have no further obligations pursuant to this Section 5.6 and may take any further actions in their sole discretion in accordance with the Revolving Credit Loan Documents and this Agreement.

SECTION 6. Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings.

6.1 Finance and Sale Issues.

(a) Until the Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations has occurred, if any Grantor shall be subject to any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent shall desire to permit the use of “Cash Collateral” (as such term is defined in Section 363(a) of the Bankruptcy Code) on which the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or any other creditor has a Lien or to permit any Grantor to obtain financing, whether from the Revolving Credit Claimholders or any other Person under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar Bankruptcy Law (“DIP Financing”)

then the Term Loan Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Term Loan Claimholders, agrees that it will raise no objection to such Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing so long as such Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing meet the following requirements: (i) it is on commercially reasonable terms, (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the DIP Financing plus the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Revolving Credit Obligations plus the aggregate undrawn amount of any letters of credit issued and not reimbursed under the Revolving Credit Agreement does not exceed the Revolving Credit Cap Amount, (iii) the Term Loan Collateral Agent and the Term Loan Claimholders retain the right to object to any ancillary agreements or arrangements regarding the Cash Collateral use or the DIP Financing that are inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement that are materially prejudicial to their interests in the Term Loan Primary Collateral, and (iv) the terms of the DIP Financing or the order for the use of Cash Collateral (A) do not compel the applicable Grantor 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, (B) do not expressly require the liquidation of the Collateral prior to a default under the DIP Financing documentation or Cash Collateral order, and (C) require that any Lien on the Term Loan Primary Collateral to secure such DIP Financing or rights in connection with the use of Cash Collateral are subordinate to the Lien of the Term Loan Collateral Agent with respect thereto. To the extent the Liens securing the Revolving Credit Obligations are subordinated to or pari passu with such DIP Financing which meets the requirements of clauses (i) through (iv) above, the Term Loan Collateral Agent will subordinate its Liens in the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral to the Liens securing such DIP Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto) and will not request adequate protection or any other relief in connection therewith (except, as expressly agreed by the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or to the extent permitted by Section 6.3).

(b) Until the Discharge of Term Loan Obligations has occurred, if any Grantor shall be subject to any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and the Term Loan Collateral Agent shall desire to permit the use of “Cash Collateral” (as such term is defined in Section 363(a) of the Bankruptcy Code) on which the Term Loan Collateral Agent or any other creditor has a Lien or to permit any Grantor to obtain DIP Financing, then the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Revolving Credit Claimholders, agrees that it will raise no objection to such Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing so long as such Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing meet the following requirements: (i) it is on commercially reasonable terms, (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the DIP Financing plus the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Term Loan Obligations does not exceed the Term Loan Cap Amount, (iii) the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and the Revolving Credit Claimholders retain the right to object to any ancillary agreements or arrangements regarding the Cash Collateral use or the DIP Financing that is inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement that are materially prejudicial to their interests in the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral, and (iv) the terms of the DIP Financing or the use of Cash Collateral (a) do not compel the applicable Grantor 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, (b) do not expressly require the liquidation of the Collateral prior to a default under the DIP

Financing documentation or Cash Collateral order, and (c) require that any Lien on the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral (including assets arising after the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding) to secure such DIP Financing or rights in connection with such use of Cash Collateral are subordinate to the Lien and rights of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent with respect thereto and the rights to collections and cash proceeds of Revolving Credit Primary Collateral of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent continue post-petition. To the extent the Liens securing the Term Loan Obligations are subordinated to or pari passu with such DIP Financing which meets the requirements of clauses (i) through (iv) above, the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent will subordinate its Liens in the Term Loan Primary Collateral to the Liens securing such DIP Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto) and will not request adequate protection or any other relief in connection therewith (except, as expressly agreed by the Term Loan Collateral Agent or to the extent permitted by Section 6.3).

6.2 Relief from the Automatic Stay.

(a) Until the Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations has occurred, the Term Loan Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Term Loan Claimholders, agrees that none of them shall seek (or support any other Person seeking) relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral (other than to the extent such relief is required to exercise its rights under Section 3.3), without the prior written consent of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, unless a motion for adequate protection permitted under Section 6.3 has been denied by the bankruptcy court (provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, upon the granting of any relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral, the terms and provisions of Section 3 shall continue to apply). Nothing contained herein shall be construed to in any way limit the right of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent to object to any motion or other application by the Term Loan Collateral Agent seeking relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral.

(b) Until the Discharge of Term Loan Obligations has occurred, the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Revolving Credit Claimholders, agrees that none of them shall seek (or support any other Person seeking) relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Term Loan Primary Collateral, without the prior written consent of the Term Loan Collateral Agent, unless a motion for adequate protection permitted under Section 6.3 has been denied by the bankruptcy court (provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, upon the granting of any relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral, the terms and provisions of Section 3 shall continue to apply). Nothing contained herein shall be construed to in any way limit the right of the Term Loan Collateral Agent to object to any motion or other application by the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent seeking relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Term Loan Primary Collateral.

6.3 Adequate Protection.

(a) The Term Loan Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Term Loan Claimholders, agrees that none of them shall contest (or support any other Person contesting):

(1) any request by the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or the Revolving Credit Claimholders for adequate protection with respect to the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral; provided that (A) such adequate protection claim shall not seek the creation of any Lien over additional assets or property of any Grantor other than with respect to assets or property that constitute Revolving Credit Collateral and (B) if such additional assets or property shall also constitute Term Loan Primary Collateral, (i) a Lien shall have been created in favor of the Term Loan Claimholders in respect of such Collateral and (ii) the Lien in favor of the Revolving Credit Claimholders shall be subordinated to the extent set forth in this Agreement; or

(2) any objection by the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or the Revolving Credit Claimholders to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or the Revolving Credit Claimholders claiming a lack of adequate protection; provided that (A) such adequate protection claim shall not seek the creation of any Lien over additional assets or property of any Grantor other than with respect to assets or property that constitute Term Loan Collateral and (B) if such additional assets or property shall also constitute Revolving Credit Primary Collateral, (i) a Lien shall have been created in favor of the Revolving Credit Claimholders in respect of such Collateral and (ii) the Lien in favor of the Term Loan Claimholders shall be subordinated to the extent set forth in this Agreement.

(b) The Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Revolving Credit Claimholders, agrees that none of them shall contest (or support any other Person contesting):

(1) any request by the Term Loan Collateral Agent or the Term Loan Claimholders for adequate protection with respect to the Term Loan Primary Collateral; provided that (A) such adequate protection claim shall not seek the creation of any Lien over additional assets or property of any Grantor other than with respect to assets or property that constitute Term Loan Collateral and (B) if such additional assets or property shall also constitute Revolving Credit Primary Collateral, (i) a Lien shall have been created in favor of the Revolving Credit Claimholders in respect of such Collateral and (ii) the Lien in favor of the Term Loan Claimholders shall be subordinated to the extent set forth in this Agreement; or

(2) any objection by the Term Loan Collateral Agent or the Term Loan Claimholders to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on the Term Loan Collateral Agent or the Term Loan Claimholders claiming a lack of adequate protection; provided that (A) such adequate protection claim shall not seek the creation of any Lien over additional assets or property of any Grantor other than with respect to assets or property that constitute Revolving Credit Collateral and (B) if such additional assets or property shall also constitute Term Loan Primary Collateral, (i) a Lien shall have been created in favor of the Term Loan Claimholders in respect of such Collateral and (ii) the Lien in favor of the Revolving Credit Claimholders shall be subordinated to the extent set forth in this Agreement.

(1) if the Revolving Credit Claimholders (or any subset thereof) are granted adequate protection with respect to the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral in the form of additional collateral (even if such collateral is not of a type which would otherwise have constituted Revolving Credit Primary Collateral) in connection with any Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing, then the Term Loan Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself or any of the Term Loan Claimholders, may seek or request adequate protection with respect to its interests in such Collateral in the form of a Lien on the same additional collateral, which Lien will be subordinated to the Liens securing the Revolving Credit Obligations and such Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto) on the same basis as the other Liens of the Term Loan Collateral Agent on Revolving Credit Primary Collateral;

(2) if the Term Loan Claimholders (or any subset thereof) are granted adequate protection with respect to the Term Loan Primary Collateral in the form of additional collateral (even if such collateral is not of a type which would otherwise have constituted Term Loan Primary Collateral) in connection with any Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing, then the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself or any of the Revolving Credit Claimholders, may seek or request adequate protection with respect to its interests in such Collateral in the form of a Lien on the same additional collateral, which Lien will be subordinated to the Liens securing the Term Loan Obligations and such Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto) on the same basis as the other Liens of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent on Term Loan Primary Collateral;

(3) in the event the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself or any of the Revolving Credit Claimholders, seeks or requests adequate protection in respect of Revolving Credit Primary Collateral and such adequate protection is granted in the form of additional collateral (even if such collateral is not of a type which would otherwise have constituted Revolving Credit Primary Collateral), then the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and any

of the Revolving Credit Claimholders, agrees that the Term Loan Collateral Agent may also be granted a Lien on the same additional collateral as security for the Term Loan Obligations and for any Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing provided by the Term Loan Claimholders, and the Term Loan Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and any of the Term Loan Claimholders, agrees that any Lien on such additional collateral securing the Term Loan Obligations shall be subordinated to the Liens on such collateral securing the Revolving Credit Obligations, any such DIP Financing provided by the Term Loan Claimholders (and all Obligations relating thereto) and to any other Liens granted to the Term Loan Claimholders as adequate protection, all on the same basis as the other Liens of the Term Loan Collateral Agent on Revolving Credit Primary Collateral; and

(d) Except as otherwise expressly set forth in Section 6.1 or in connection with the exercise of remedies with respect to (i) the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral, nothing herein shall limit the rights of the Term Loan Collateral Agent or the Term Loan Claimholders from seeking adequate protection with respect to their rights in the Term Loan Primary Collateral in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding (including adequate protection in the form of a cash payment, periodic cash payments or otherwise) or (ii) the Term Loan Primary Collateral, nothing herein shall limit the rights of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or the Revolving Credit Claimholders from seeking adequate protection with respect to their rights in the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding (including adequate protection in the form of a cash payment, periodic cash payments or otherwise).

6.4 Avoidance Issues. If any Revolving Credit Claimholder or Term Loan Claimholder is required in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise to turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of the applicable Grantor any amount paid in

respect of Revolving Credit Obligations or the Term Loan Obligations, as the case may be (a “Recovery”), then such Revolving Credit Claimholders or Term Loan Claimholders shall be entitled to a reinstatement of Revolving Credit Obligations or the Term Loan Obligations, as the case may be, with respect to all such recovered amounts. If this Agreement shall have been terminated prior to such 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 from such date of reinstatement.

(b) Neither the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent nor any other Revolving Credit Claimholder shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the Term Loan Collateral Agent or any Term Loan Claimholder for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of Term Loan Obligations consisting of Post-Petition Interest, fees or expenses to the extent of the value of the Lien securing any Term Loan Claimholder’s claim, without regard to the existence of the Lien of the Revolving Credit Agent on behalf of the Revolving Credit Claimholders on the Collateral.

6.7 Waiver - 1111(b)(2) Issues.

(a) The Term Loan Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Term Loan Claimholders, waives any claim it may hereafter have against any Revolving Credit Claimholder arising out of the election of any Revolving Credit Claimholder of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code out of any grant of a security interest in connection with the Revolving Credit Primary Collateral in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.

(b) The Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Revolving Credit Claimholders, waives any claim it may hereafter have against any Term Loan Claimholder arising out of the election of any Term Loan Claimholder of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code or out of any grant of a security interest in connection with the Term Loan Primary Collateral in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.

6.8 Separate Grants of Security and Separate Classification. The Term Loan Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Term Loan Claimholders, and the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent for itself and on behalf of the Revolving Credit Claimholders, acknowledge and agree that: the grants of Liens pursuant to the Revolving Credit Collateral Documents and the Term Loan Collateral Documents constitute separate and distinct grants of Liens, and because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Collateral, the Term Loan Obligations are fundamentally different from the Revolving Credit Obligations and must be separately classified in any plan of reorganization proposed or adopted in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.

To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in Section 6.8, if it is held that the claims of the Term Loan Claimholders and the Revolving Credit Claimholders in respect of the Term Loan Collateral constitute only one secured claim (rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims), then each of the parties hereto hereby acknowledges and agrees that, subject to Sections 2.1 and 4.1, all distributions shall be made as if there were separate classes of senior and junior secured claims against the Grantors in respect of the Term Loan Collateral (with the effect being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the Term Loan Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the Revolving Credit Claimholders), the Term Loan Claimholders shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them in respect of principal, pre-petition interest and other claims, all amounts owing in respect of Post-Petition Interest, including any additional interest payable pursuant to the Term Loan Agreement, arising from or related to a default, which is disallowed as a claim in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding) before any distribution is made in respect of the claims held by the Revolving Credit Claimholders, with the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Revolving Credit Claimholders, hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the Term Loan Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Term Loan Claimholders, amounts otherwise received or receivable by them to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing the claim or recovery of the Revolving Credit Claimholders).

To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in Section 6.8, if it is held that the claims of the Term Loan Claimholders and the Revolving Credit Claimholders in respect of the Revolving Credit Collateral constitute only one secured claim (rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims), then each of the parties hereto hereby acknowledges and agrees that, subject to Sections 2.1 and 4.1, all distributions shall be made as if there were separate classes of senior and junior secured claims against the Grantors in respect of the Revolving Credit Collateral (with the effect being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the Revolving Credit Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the Term Loan Claimholders), the Revolving Credit Claimholders shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them in respect of principal, pre-petition interest and other claims, all amounts owing in respect of Post-Petition Interest, including any additional interest payable pursuant to the Revolving Credit Agreement, arising from or related to a default, which is disallowed as a claim in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding) before any distribution is made in respect of the

claims held by the Term Loan Claimholders, with the Term Loan Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Term Loan Claimholders, hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Revolving Credit Claimholders, amounts otherwise received or receivable by them to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing the claim or recovery of the Term Loan Claimholders).
