Irrespective of the date, time, method, manner or order of grant, attachment or perfection of any Liens securing the Note Obligations granted on the Collateral or of any Liens securing the ABL Obligations granted on the Collateral (including, in each case, irrespective of whether any such Lien is granted (or secures Obligations relating to the period) before or after the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding) and notwithstanding any provision of any UCC, or any other applicable law, or the ABL Loan Documents or the Note Documents, the ABL Agent, on behalf of the ABL Claimholders, and the Notes Agent, on behalf of the Note Claimholders, hereby agree that:

(a) any Lien of the ABL Agent on the ABL Priority Collateral securing the ABL Obligations, whether such Lien is now or hereafter held by or on behalf of the ABL Agent or any other ABL Claimholder or any other agent or trustee therefor, regardless of how or when acquired, whether by grant, possession, statute, operation of law, subrogation or otherwise, shall be senior in all respects and prior to any Lien on the ABL Priority Collateral securing any Note Obligations; and

(b) any Lien of the Notes Agent on the Notes Priority Collateral securing the Note Obligations, whether such Lien is now or hereafter held by or on behalf of the Notes Agent, any other Note Claimholder or any other agent or trustee therefor, regardless of how or when acquired, whether by grant, possession, statute, operation of law, subrogation or otherwise, shall be senior in all respects to all Liens on the Notes Priority Collateral securing any ABL Obligations.

2.2. Prohibition on Contesting Liens.

Each of the Notes Agent, on behalf of each Note Claimholder, and the ABL Agent, on behalf of each ABL Claimholder, consents to the granting of Liens in favor of the other to secure the ABL Obligations and the Note Obligations, as applicable, and agrees that no Claimholder will be entitled to, and it will not (and shall be deemed to have irrevocably, absolutely, and unconditionally waived any right to), contest (directly or indirectly) or support (directly or indirectly) any other Person in contesting, in any proceeding (including any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding): (a) the attachment, perfection, priority, validity or enforceability of any Lien in the Collateral held by or on behalf of any of the ABL Claimholders to secure the

payment of the ABL Obligations or any of the Note Claimholders to secure the payment of the Note Obligations, (b) the priority, validity or enforceability of the ABL Obligations or the Note Obligations, including the allowability or priority of the Note Obligations or the ABL Obligations, as applicable, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, or (c) the validity or enforceability of the provisions of this Agreement; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of the ABL Agent, on behalf of the ABL Claimholders, or the Notes Agent, on behalf of the Note Claimholders, 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, 3.2 and 6.1.

2.3. No New Liens.

So long as neither the Discharge of ABL Obligations nor the Discharge of Note Obligations has occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against one or more of the Issuers or any other Grantor, the parties hereto agree, subject to Article VI, that the Issuers shall not, and shall not permit any other Grantor to:

(a) grant or permit any additional Liens on any asset or property to secure any Note Obligations unless it has granted or concurrently grants a Lien on such asset or property to secure the ABL Obligations; or

(b) grant or permit any additional Liens on any asset or property to secure any ABL Obligations unless it has granted or concurrently grants a Lien on such asset or property to secure the Note Obligations.

To the extent any additional Liens are granted on any asset or property (except as contemplated by Section 2.4) pursuant to this Section 2.3, the priority of such additional Liens shall be determined in accordance with Section 2.1.

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 ABL Agent or the Notes 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 ABL Collateral and the Note Collateral

EXERCISE OF REMEDIES; ENFORCEMENT.

3.1. Restrictions on the Notes Agent and the Note Claimholders.

(a) Until the Discharge of ABL Obligations has occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against any Grantor, the Notes Agent and the other Note Claimholders:

(i) will not exercise or seek to exercise (but instead shall be deemed to have hereby irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally waived for the duration of the Note Standstill Period), any rights, powers, or remedies with respect to any ABL Priority Collateral (including (A) any right of set-off or any right under any Account Agreement (other than Account Agreements with respect to any Notes Collateral Account), landlord waiver or bailee’s letter or similar agreement or arrangement to which the Notes Agent or any Note Claimholder is a party, (B) any right to undertake self-help re-possession or non-judicial disposition of any ABL Priority Collateral (including any partial or complete strict foreclosure), and/or (C) any right to institute, prosecute, or otherwise maintain any action or proceeding with respect to such rights, powers or remedies (including any action of foreclosure)) provided, however, that the Notes Agent may exercise any or all of such rights, powers or remedies after a period of at least 270 days has elapsed since the later of: (i) the date on which the Notes Agent declared the existence of a Note Default, accelerated (to the extent such amount was not already due and owing) the payment of the principal amount of all Note Obligations, and demanded payment thereof and (ii) the date on which the ABL Agent received the Enforcement Notice from the Notes Agent relating to such action; provided, further, however, that neither the Notes Agent nor any other Note Claimholder shall exercise any rights or remedies with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral if, notwithstanding the expiration of such 270-day period, the ABL Agent or the other ABL Claimholders (A) shall have commenced, whether before or after the expiration of such 270-day period, and be diligently pursuing the exercise of their rights, powers, or remedies with respect to all or any material portion of such Collateral (prompt written notice of such exercise to be given to the Notes Agent), or (B) shall have been stayed by operation of law or any court order from pursuing any such exercise of remedies (the period during which the Notes Agent and the other Note Claimholders may not pursuant to this Section 3.1(a)(i) exercise any rights, powers, or remedies with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral, the “Note Standstill Period”);

(ii) will not, directly or indirectly, contest, protest or object to or hinder any judicial or non-judicial foreclosure proceeding or action (including any partial or complete strict foreclosure) brought by the ABL Agent or any other ABL Claimholder relating to the ABL Priority Collateral or any other exercise by the ABL Agent or any other ABL Claimholder of any other rights, powers and remedies relating to the ABL Priority Collateral, including any sale, lease, exchange, transfer, or other disposition of the ABL Priority Collateral, whether under the ABL Loan Documents, applicable law, by any Grantor with the consent of the ABL Agent, or otherwise;

(iii) subject to their rights under clause (a)(i) above (and under clause (vi) of Section 3.1(c)), will not object to the forbearance by the ABL Agent or the ABL Claimholders from bringing or pursuing any Enforcement with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral;

(iv) except as may be permitted in Section 3.1(c), irrevocably, absolutely, and unconditionally waive any and all rights the Notes Agent or the Note Claimholders may have as a junior lien creditor or otherwise to object (and seek or be awarded any relief of any nature whatsoever based on any such objection) to the manner in which the ABL Agent or the ABL Claimholders (A) enforce or collect (or attempt to collect) the ABL Obligations or (B) realize or seek to realize upon or otherwise enforce the Liens in and to the ABL Priority Collateral securing the ABL Obligations, regardless of whether any action or failure to act by or on behalf of the ABL Agent or ABL Claimholders is adverse to the interest of the Notes Agent or the Note Claimholders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Note Claimholders shall be deemed to have hereby irrevocably, absolutely, and unconditionally waived any right to object (and seek or be awarded any relief of any nature whatsoever based on any such objection), at any time prior or subsequent to any disposition of any of the ABL Priority Collateral, on the ground(s) that any such disposition of ABL Priority Collateral (x) would not be or was not “commercially reasonable” within the meaning of any applicable UCC and/or (y) would not or did not comply with any other requirement under any applicable UCC or under any other applicable law governing the manner in which a secured creditor (including one with a Lien on real property) is to realize on its collateral; and

(v) subject to Section 3.1(a) and (c), acknowledge and agree that no covenant, agreement or restriction contained in the Note Security Documents or any other Note Document (other than this Agreement) shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights and remedies of the ABL Agent or the ABL Claimholders with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral as set forth in this Agreement and the ABL Loan Documents;

provided, however, that, in the case of (i), (ii) and (iii) above, the Liens granted to secure the Note Obligations of the Note Claimholders shall attach to any Proceeds resulting from actions taken by the ABL Agent or any ABL Claimholder with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral in accordance with this Agreement after application of such Proceeds to the extent necessary to meet the requirements of a Discharge of ABL Obligations.

(b) Until the Discharge of ABL Obligations has occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against any Grantor, the ABL Agent and the other ABL 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 ABL Priority Collateral by the respective Grantors after an ABL Default) make determinations regarding the release, disposition, or restrictions with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral without any consultation with or the consent of the Notes Agent or any Note Claimholder; provided, however, that the Lien securing the Note Obligations shall remain on the Proceeds (other than those properly applied to the ABL Obligations in accordance with Section 4.1) of such Collateral released or disposed of subject to the relative priorities described in Section 2.1. In exercising rights, powers, and remedies with respect to the ABL

Priority Collateral, the ABL Agent and the ABL Claimholders may enforce the provisions of the ABL Loan Documents and exercise rights, powers, and/or remedies thereunder and/or under applicable law or otherwise, 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 ABL Priority Collateral upon foreclosure, to incur expenses in connection with such sale or 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.

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

(ii) take any action (not adverse to the priority status of the Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral, or the rights of the ABL Agent or any of the ABL Claimholders to exercise rights, powers, and/or remedies in respect thereof, including those under Article VI) in order to create, perfect, preserve or protect (but not enforce) its Lien on any of the ABL Priority Collateral;

(iii) 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 Note Claimholders, including any claims secured by the ABL Priority Collateral, if any, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Agreement;

(iv) 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 or applicable law (including the Bankruptcy Laws of any applicable jurisdiction) and any pleadings, objections, motions or agreements which assert rights or interests available to secured creditors solely with respect to the Notes Priority Collateral;

(v) vote on any Plan of Reorganization, file any proof of claim, make other filings and make any arguments, obligations, and motions (including in support of or opposition to, as applicable, the confirmation or approval of any Plan of Reorganization) that are, in each case, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or of the other provisions of this Agreement, any vote to accept, and any other act to support the confirmation or approval of, any Non-Conforming Plan of Reorganization shall be inconsistent with and accordingly, a violation of the terms of this Agreement, and the ABL Agent shall be entitled to have any such vote to accept a Non-Conforming Plan of Reorganization changed and any such support of any Non-Conforming Plan of Reorganization withdrawn;

(vi) exercise any of the rights, powers and/or remedies with respect to any of the ABL Priority Collateral after the termination of the Note Standstill Period to the extent permitted by Section 3.1(a)(i); and

(vii) take any action described in clauses (iii), (vi) and (viii) of the definition of “Enforcement.”

The Notes Agent, on behalf of the Note Claimholders, agrees that no Note Claimholder will take or receive any ABL Priority Collateral (including Proceeds) in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy (including set-off) with respect to ABL Priority 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 ABL Obligations has occurred, except as expressly provided in Sections 3.1(a)(i), 6.7 and clause (vi) of Section 3.1(c), the sole right of the Notes Agent and the Note Claimholders with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral is to hold a Lien on such Collateral pursuant to the Note Security Documents for the period and to the extent granted therein and to receive a share of the Proceeds thereof, if any, in accordance with Section 4.1.

(d) Except as otherwise specifically set forth in Sections 3.1(a) and 3.5 and Article VI, the Notes Agent and the Note Claimholders may exercise rights and remedies as unsecured creditors against any Grantor and may exercise rights and remedies with respect to the Notes Priority Collateral, in each case, in accordance with the terms of the Note Documents and applicable law; provided, however, that in the event that the Notes Agent or any Note Claimholder becomes a judgment Lien creditor in respect of ABL Priority Collateral as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor with respect to the Note Obligations, such judgment Lien shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement for all purposes (including in relation to the ABL Obligations) as the other Liens securing the Note Obligations are subject to this Agreement.

(e) Except as provided in Section 5.3(d), nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by the Notes Agent or any other Note Claimholders of the required payments of interest, principal and other amounts owed in respect of the Note Obligations so long as such receipt is not the direct or indirect result of the exercise by the Notes Agent or any Note Claimholders of rights or remedies as a secured creditor (including set-off) with respect to ABL Priority Collateral or enforcement in contravention of this Agreement of any Lien held by any of them. Nothing in this Agreement impairs or otherwise adversely affects any rights or remedies the ABL Agent or the ABL Claimholders may have against the Grantors under the ABL Loan Documents.

3.2. Restrictions on the ABL Agent and ABL Claimholders.

(a) Until the Discharge of Note Obligations has occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against any Grantor, subject to the limited extent provided in Article VI, the ABL Agent and the other ABL Claimholders:

(i) will not exercise or seek to exercise (but instead shall be deemed to have hereby irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally waived for the duration of the ABL Standstill Period) any rights, powers, or remedies with respect to any Notes Priority

Collateral (including (A) any right of set-off or any right under any Account Agreement, relating to any Notes Collateral Account, landlord waiver or bailee’s letter or similar agreement or arrangement to which the ABL Agent or any ABL Claimholder is a party, (B) any right to undertake self-help repossession or non-judicial disposition of any Notes Priority Collateral (including any partial or complete strict foreclosure), and/or (C) any right to institute, prosecute or otherwise maintain any action or proceeding with respect to such rights, powers, or remedies (including any action of foreclosure)); provided, however, that the ABL Agent may exercise any or all of such rights, powers, or remedies after a period of at least 270 days has elapsed since the later of: (i) the date on which the ABL Agent declared the existence of an ABL Default, accelerated (to the extent such amount was not already due and owing) the payment of the principal amount of all ABL Obligations, and demanded payment thereof and (ii) the date on which the Notes Agent received the Enforcement Notice from the ABL Agent relating to such action; provided, further, however, that neither the ABL Agent nor any other ABL Claimholders shall exercise any rights or remedies with respect to the Notes Priority Collateral if, notwithstanding the expiration of such 270-day period, the Notes Agent or the other Notes Claimholders (A) shall have commenced, whether before or after the expiration of such 270-day period, and be diligently pursuing the exercise of their rights or remedies with respect to all or any material portion of such Collateral (prompt notice of such exercise to be given to the ABL Agent) or (B) shall have been stayed by operation of law or by any court order from pursuing any such exercise of remedies (the period during which the ABL Agent and the other ABL Claimholders may not pursuant to this Section 3.2(a)(i) exercise any rights, powers or remedies with respect to the Notes Priority Collateral, the “ABL Standstill Period”); provided, finally, however, that the ABL Agent, independent in all respects of the preceding provisos, may exercise the rights provided for in Section 3.3 (with respect to any Access Period);

(iii) subject to Section 3.2(a), will not object to the forbearance by the Notes Agent or the Note Claimholders from bringing or pursuing any Enforcement with respect to the Notes Priority Collateral;

(iv) subject to Sections 3.2(c), 3.3 and 3.5, irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally waive any and all rights the ABL Agent and ABL Claimholders may have as a junior lien creditor or otherwise to object (and seek or be awarded any relief of any nature whatsoever based on any such objection) to the manner in which the Notes Agent or the Note Claimholders (a) enforce or collect (or attempt to collect) the Note Obligations or (b) realize or seek to realize upon or otherwise enforce the Liens in and to

the Notes Priority Collateral securing the Note Obligations, regardless of whether any action or failure to act by or on behalf of the Notes Agent or Note Claimholders is adverse to the interest of the ABL Claimholders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the ABL Claimholders shall be deemed to have hereby irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally waived any right to object (and seek or be awarded any relief of any nature whatsoever based on any such objection), at any time prior to or subsequent to any disposition of any Notes Priority Collateral, on the ground(s) that any such disposition of Notes Priority Collateral (a) would not be or was not “commercially reasonable” within the meaning of any applicable UCC and/or (b) would not or did not comply with any other requirement under any applicable UCC or under any other applicable law governing the manner in which a secured creditor (including one with a Lien on real property) is to realize on its collateral; and

(v) subject to Sections 3.2(a) and (c) and Sections 3.3 and 3.5, acknowledge and agree that no covenant, agreement or restriction contained in the ABL Security Documents or any other ABL Loan Document (other than this Agreement) shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights and remedies of the Notes Agent or the Note Claimholders with respect to the Notes Priority Collateral as set forth in this Agreement and the Note Documents;

provided, however, that in the case of (i), (ii) and (iii) above, the Liens granted to secure the ABL Obligations of the ABL Claimholders shall attach to any Proceeds resulting from actions taken by the Notes Agent or any Note Claimholder with respect to the Notes Priority Collateral in accordance with this Agreement after application of such Proceeds to the extent necessary to meet the requirements of a Discharge of Note Obligations.

(b) Until the Discharge of Note Obligations has occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against any Grantor, the Notes Agent and the Note Claimholders shall have the right to enforce rights, exercise remedies (including set-off and the right to credit bid their debt) and make, in connection therewith (including voluntary Dispositions of Notes Priority Collateral by the respective Grantors after a Note Default) determinations regarding the release, disposition, or restrictions with respect to the Notes Priority Collateral without any consultation with or the consent of the ABL Agent or any ABL Claimholder subject to the Notes Agent’s and the Note Claimholders’ obligations under Section 3.3; provided, however, that the Lien securing the ABL Obligations shall remain on the Proceeds (other than those properly applied to the Note Obligations in accordance with the Note Documents) of such Collateral released or disposed of subject to the relative priorities described in Section 2.1. In exercising rights, powers and remedies with respect to the Notes Priority Collateral, the Notes Agent and the Note Claimholders may enforce the provisions of the Note Documents and exercise rights, powers and/or remedies thereunder and/or under applicable law or otherwise, all in such order and in such manner as they may determine in the exercise of their sole discretion subject to the Notes Agent’s and the Note Claimholders’ obligations under Section 3.3. Such exercise and enforcement shall include the rights of an agent appointed by them to sell or otherwise dispose of the Notes Priority Collateral upon foreclosure, to incur expenses in connection with such sale or 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.

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

(ii) take any action (not adverse to the priority status of the Liens on the Notes Priority Collateral, or the rights of the Notes Agent or any of the Note Claimholders to exercise rights, powers and/or remedies in respect thereof, including those under Article VI) in order to create, perfect, preserve or protect (but, subject to the provisions of Section 3.3, not enforce) its Lien on any of the Notes Priority Collateral;

(iii) 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 ABL Claimholders, including any claims secured by the Notes Priority Collateral, if any, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Agreement;

(v) vote on any Plan of Reorganization, file any proof of claim, make other filings and make any arguments, obligations and motions (including in support of or opposition to, as applicable, the confirmation or approval of any Plan of Reorganization) that are, in each case, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or of the other provisions of this Agreement, any vote to accept, and any other act to support the confirmation or approval of, any Non-Conforming Plan of Reorganization shall be inconsistent with and, accordingly, a violation of the terms of this Agreement, and the Notes Agent shall be entitled to have any such vote to accept a Non-Conforming Plan of Reorganization changed and any such support of any Non-Conforming Plan of Reorganization withdrawn;

(vi) exercise any of its rights, powers, and/or remedies with respect to any of the Notes Priority Collateral after the termination of the ABL Standstill Period to the extent permitted by Section 3.2(a)(i); and

The ABL Agent, on behalf of the ABL Claimholders, agrees that no ABL Claimholder will take or receive any Notes Priority Collateral (including Proceeds) in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy (including set-off) with respect to any Notes Priority 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 Note Obligations has occurred, except as expressly provided in Sections 3.2(a)(i), 3.3 and 3.5 and clause (vi) of this Section 3.2(c), the sole right of the ABL Agent and the ABL Claimholders with respect to the Notes Priority Collateral is to hold a Lien on such Collateral pursuant to the ABL Security Documents for the period and to the extent granted therein and to receive a share of the Proceeds thereof, if any, in accordance with Section 4.1.

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

(e) Except as provided in Section 5.3(c), nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by the ABL Agent or any ABL Claimholders of the required payments of interest, principal and other amounts owed in respect of the ABL Obligations so long as such receipt is not the direct or indirect result of the exercise by the ABL Agent or any ABL Claimholders of rights or remedies as a secured creditor (including set-off) with respect to Notes Priority Collateral or enforcement in contravention of this Agreement of any Lien held by any of them. Nothing in this Agreement impairs or otherwise adversely affects any rights or remedies the Notes Agent or the Note Claimholders may have against the Grantors under the Note Documents.

3.3. Collateral Access Rights.

(a) The ABL Agent and the Notes Agent agree not to commence Enforcement (including, without limitation, a Going Out of Business Sale) until an Enforcement Notice has been given to the other Agent. Subject to the provisions of Sections 3.1 and 3.2, 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 other ABL Claimholders or the other Note Claimholders, as applicable, shall interfere with the Enforcement actions of the other with respect to Collateral in which such party has the priority Lien in accordance with Section 2.1 and Section 2.2.

(b) If the Notes Agent, or any agent or representative of the Notes Agent, or any receiver, shall, after any Note Default, obtain possession or physical control of any of the Notes Priority Collateral, the Notes Agent shall promptly notify the ABL Agent in writing of that fact, and the ABL Agent shall, within ten (10) Business Days thereafter, notify the Notes Agent in writing as to whether the ABL Agent desires to exercise rights under this Agreement in connection with an Enforcement (including, without limitation, a Going Out of Business Sale) with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral. In addition, if the ABL Agent, or any agent or

representative or the ABL Agent, or any receiver, shall obtain possession or physical control of any of the Mortgaged Premises or any of the tangible Notes Priority Collateral located on any premises other than a Mortgaged Premises or control over any intangible Notes Priority Collateral, following the delivery to the Notes Agent of an Enforcement Notice, then the ABL Agent shall promptly notify the Notes Agent in writing that the ABL Agent is exercising its access rights under this Agreement. Upon delivery of such notice by the ABL Agent to the Notes Agent, the parties shall confer in good faith to coordinate with respect to the ABL Agent’s exercise of such access rights. Consistent with the definition of “Access Period,” access rights will apply to differing parcels of Mortgaged Premises at differing times, in which case, a differing Access Period will apply to each such property.

(c) During any pertinent Access Period, the ABL Agent and the Issuers and their Subsidiaries, with the consent of the ABL Agent in connection with a Going Out of Business Sale, and their agents, representatives and designees shall have an irrevocable, non-exclusive right to have access to, and a rent-free right to use, the Notes Priority Collateral for the purpose of (i) arranging for and effecting the sale or disposition of ABL Priority Collateral, including the production, completion, packaging and other preparation of such ABL Priority Collateral for sale or disposition, (ii) selling (by public auction, private sale or a “store closing”, Going Out of Business Sale or similar sale, whether in bulk, in lots or to customers in the ordinary course of business or otherwise and which sale may include augmented Inventory of the same type sold in any Grantor’s business), (iii) storing or otherwise dealing with the ABL Priority Collateral, in each case without notice to, the involvement of or interference by the Notes Agent or any Note Claimholder or liability to the Notes Agent or any Note Claimholder. During any such Access Period, the ABL Agent and its representatives (and persons employed on their behalf), may continue to operate, service, maintain, process and sell the ABL Priority Collateral, as well as to engage in bulk sales of ABL Priority Collateral. The ABL Agent shall take proper and reasonable care under the circumstances of any Notes Priority Collateral that is used by the ABL Agent during the Access Period and repair and replace any damage (ordinary wear-and-tear excepted) caused by the ABL Agent or its agents, representatives or designees and the ABL Agent shall comply with all applicable laws in all material respects in connection with its use or occupancy of the Notes Priority Collateral. The ABL Agent and the ABL Claimholders shall reimburse the Notes Agent and the Note Claimholders for any injury or damage to Persons or property (ordinary wear-and-tear excepted) caused by the acts or omissions of Persons under its control; provided, however, that the ABL Agent and the ABL Claimholders will not be liable for any diminution in the value of the Mortgaged Premises or any other Notes Priority Collateral caused by the absence of the ABL Priority Collateral therefrom. In no event shall the ABL Claimholders or the ABL Agent have any liability to the Note Claimholders and/or to the Notes Agent hereunder as a result of any condition (including any environmental condition, claim or liability) on or with respect to the Notes Priority Collateral existing prior to the date of the exercise by the ABL Agent) of its rights under this Agreement. The ABL Agent and the Notes Agent shall cooperate and use reasonable efforts to ensure that their activities during the Access Period as described above do not interfere materially with the activities of the other as described above, including the right of Notes Agent to show the Notes Priority Collateral to prospective purchasers and to ready the Notes Priority Collateral for sale.

(c) For the purposes of enabling the ABL Agent to exercise rights and remedies under this Agreement during the Enforcement Period, the Notes Agent and each Grantor hereby

grant (to the full extent of their respective rights and interests) the ABL Agent and its agents, representatives and designees an irrevocable, non-exclusive, royalty-free, rent-free license and lease (which will be binding on any successor or assignee of any Notes Priority Collateral) to use all of the Notes Priority Collateral to collect all Accounts included in ABL Priority Collateral, to copy, use, or preserve any and all information relating to any of the ABL Priority Collateral, and to complete the manufacture, packaging, advertising for sale and sale of (i) work-in-process, (ii) raw materials and (iii) complete inventory; provided, however, the royalty-free, rent-free license and lease with respect to the applicable Notes Priority Collateral, shall immediately expire upon the end of the Access Period; provided, further, that such expiration shall be without prejudice to the sale or other disposition of the ABL Priority Collateral in accordance with applicable law.

(d) Consistent with the definition of the term “Access Period,” if any order or injunction is issued or stay is granted or is otherwise effective by operation of law that prohibits the ABL Agent from exercising any of its rights hereunder, then the Access Period granted to the ABL Agent under this Section 3.3 shall be stayed during the period of such prohibition and shall continue thereafter for the number of days remaining in the applicable Access Period. The Notes Agent shall not foreclose or otherwise sell or dispose of any of the Notes Priority Collateral during the Access Period unless the buyer agrees in writing to acquire the Notes Priority Collateral subject to the terms of Section 3.3 of this Agreement and agrees therein to comply with the terms of this Section 3.3. The rights of ABL Agent and the ABL Claimholders under this Section 3.3 during the Access Period shall continue notwithstanding such foreclosure, sale or other disposition by the Notes Agent.

(e) The ABL Agent and the ABL Claimholders shall have the right to bring an action to enforce their rights under this Section 3.3, including, without limitation, an action seeking possession of the applicable Collateral and/or specific performance of this Section 3.3.

3.4. Reserved.

3.5. Set-Off and Tracing of and Priorities in Proceeds.

The Notes Agent, on behalf of the Note Claimholders, acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent the Notes Agent or any Note Claimholder exercises its rights of set-off against any ABL Priority Collateral, the amount of such set-off shall be held and distributed pursuant to Section 4.1. The ABL Agent, on behalf of the ABL Claimholders, acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent the ABL Agent or any ABL Claimholder exercises its rights of set-off against any Notes Priority Collateral, the amount of such set-off shall be held and distributed pursuant to Section 4.1. The ABL Agent, for itself and on behalf of the ABL Claimholders, and the Notes Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Note Claimholders, further agree that prior to an issuance of an Enforcement Notice or the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, any Proceeds of Collateral, whether or not deposited under Account Agreements (other than with respect to any Notes Collateral Account), which are used by any Grantor to acquire other property which is Collateral shall not (solely as between the Agents, the ABL Claimholders and the Note Claimholders) be treated as Proceeds of Collateral for purposes of determining the relative priorities in the Collateral which was so acquired. In addition, unless and until the Discharge of ABL Obligations occurs, subject to Section 4.2, the Notes Agent and the Note

Claimholders each hereby consents to the application, prior to the receipt by the ABL Agent of an Enforcement Notice issued by the Notes Agent, of cash or other Proceeds of Collateral, deposited under Account Agreements (other than Account Agreements with respect to any Notes Collateral Account) to the repayment of ABL Obligations pursuant to the ABL Loan Documents.

Until the Discharge of ABL Obligations has occurred, (i) all Proceeds of any such policy and any such award (or any payments with respect to a deed in lieu of condemnation) if in respect of the ABL Priority Collateral and to the extent required by the ABL Loan Documents shall be paid to the ABL Agent for the benefit of the ABL Claimholders pursuant to the terms of the ABL Loan Documents (including, without limitation, for purposes of cash collateralization of letters of credit) and thereafter, if the Discharge of ABL Obligations has occurred, and subject to the rights of the Grantors under the Note Security

Documents, to the Notes Agent for the benefit of the Note Claimholders to the extent required under the Note Security Documents and then, to the extent no Note Obligations are outstanding, to the owner of the subject property, such other Person as may be entitled thereto or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct, and (ii) if the Notes Agent or any Note Claimholders shall, at any time, receive any Proceeds of any such insurance policy or any such award or payment with respect to ABL Priority Collateral in contravention of this Agreement, it shall segregate and hold in trust and forthwith pay such Proceeds over to the ABL Agent in accordance with the terms of Section 4.2.

5.3. Amendments to ABL Loan Documents and Note Documents; Refinancing.

(a) Subject to Sections 5.3(c) and 5.3(d), the ABL Loan Documents and Note Documents may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified in accordance with their terms, all without affecting the Lien subordination or other provisions of this Agreement. The ABL Obligations may be Refinanced without notice to, or the consent of, the Notes Agent or the Note Claimholders and without affecting the Lien subordination or other provisions of this Agreement, and the Note Obligations may be Refinanced without notice to, or consent of, the ABL Agent or the ABL Claimholders and without affecting the Lien subordination and other provisions of this Agreement so long as such Refinancing is on terms and conditions that would not violate the Note Documents or the ABL Loan Documents, each as in effect on the date hereof (or, if less restrictive to the Issuers, as in effect on the date of such amendment or Refinancing); provided, however, that, in each case, the lenders or holders of such Refinancing debt bind themselves in a writing addressed to the Notes Agent and the Note Claimholders or the

ABL Agent and the ABL Claimholders, as applicable, to the terms of this Agreement; provided further, however, that, if such Refinancing debt is secured by a Lien on any Collateral the holders of such Refinancing debt shall be deemed bound by the terms hereof regardless of whether or not such writing is provided. For the avoidance of doubt, the sale or other transfer of Indebtedness is not restricted by this Agreement but the provisions of this Agreement shall be binding on all holders of ABL Obligations and Note Obligations.

(b) Subject to Sections 5.3(c) and 5.3(d), the ABL Agent and the Notes Agent shall each use good faith efforts to notify the other party of any written amendment or modification to the ABL Documents and Note Documents, but the failure to do so shall not create a cause of action against the party failing to give such notice or create any claim or right on behalf of any third party.

(c) Without the consent of the Notes Agent, the ABL Claimholders will not be entitled to agree (and will not agree) to any amendment to or modification of the ABL Loan Documents, whether in a Refinancing or otherwise, that is not permitted by the Indenture as in effect on the date hereof (or, if less restrictive to the ABL Claimholders, on the date of such amendment or modification).

(d) Without the consent of the ABL Agent, the Notes Agent and the Note Claimholders will not be entitled to agree (and will not agree) to any amendment to or modification of the Note Documents, whether in a Refinancing or otherwise, that is not permitted by the ABL Credit Agreement as in effect on the date hereof (or, if less restrictive to the Note Claimholders, on the date of such amendment or modification).

(e) So long as the Discharge of ABL Obligations has not occurred, the Notes Agent agrees that each applicable Note Security Document that grants a Lien on any material Collateral shall include the following language (or similar language acceptable to the ABL Agent): “Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the liens and security interests granted to U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee, pursuant to this Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy by U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee hereunder, are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement dated as of December 20, 2012 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Intercreditor Agreement”), among Bank of America, N.A., as the ABL Agent, U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee and as Notes Agent and the Grantors (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) from time to time party thereto. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and the terms of this Agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control.”

(f) So long as the Discharge of Note Obligations has not occurred, the ABL Agent agrees that each applicable ABL Security Document executed on or after the date hereof that grants a Lien on any material Collateral shall include the following language (or similar language acceptable to the Note Agent): “Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the liens and security interests 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 Intercreditor Agreement dated as of December 20, 2012 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Intercreditor Agreement”), among the Administrative Agent, as

ABL Agent, U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee and as Notes Agent and the Grantors (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) from time to time party thereto. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and the terms of this Agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control.”

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 (such Collateral, which shall include, without limitation, Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts and Capital Stock, being the “Pledged Collateral”) as (i) in the case of the ABL Agent, the collateral agent for the ABL Claimholders under the ABL Loan Documents or, in the case of the Notes Agent, the collateral agent for the Note Claimholders under the Note Documents and (ii) gratuitous bailee for the benefit of the other Agent (such bailment being intended, among other things, to satisfy the requirements of Sections 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 ABL Loan Documents and the Note Documents, respectively, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.4. The Notes Agent and the Note Claimholders hereby appoint the ABL Agent as their agent for the purposes of perfecting their security interest in all Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts of the Issuers and the Company Subsidiaries. The ABL Agent hereby accepts such appointment and acknowledges and agrees that it shall act for the benefit of the Notes Agent and the other Note Claimholders under each Account Agreement (other than Account Agreements with respect to any Notes Collateral Account) and that any Proceeds received by the ABL Agent under any Account Agreement (other than Account Agreements with respect to any Notes Collateral Account) shall be applied in accordance with Article IV. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby grants (x) a security interest in the Pledged Collateral to the Notes Agent for the benefit of the ABL Claimholders and (y) a security interest in the Pledged Collateral (other than securities of the Issuers or the Company Subsidiaries to the extent such security interest would require the filing of financial statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) to the ABL Agent for the benefit of the Note Claimholders.

(b) Neither Agent shall have any obligation whatsoever to the other Agent, to any other ABL Claimholder, or to any other Note 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 or Proceeds thereof upon a Discharge of ABL Obligations or Discharge of Note Obligations, as applicable, as provided in paragraph (d) below.

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

(d) Upon the Discharge of ABL Obligations or the Discharge of Note Obligations, as applicable, the Agent under the ABL Credit Agreement or Note Agreement, as applicable, that has been discharged shall deliver the remaining Pledged Collateral (if any) together with any necessary endorsements or assignments, first, to the other Agent to the extent the other Obligations remain outstanding, and second, to the applicable Grantor to the extent the Discharge of ABL Obligations and the Discharge of Note Obligations have occurred (in each case, so as to allow such Person to obtain possession or control of such Pledged Collateral) or as otherwise required by law. Each Agent further agrees to take all other action reasonably requested by the other Agent in connection with the other Agent obtaining a first-priority interest in the Collateral or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any obligation of the Agent, which has been discharged, to make any delivery to the other Agent under this Section 5.4(d) is subject to (i) the order of any court of competent jurisdiction, or (ii) any automatic stay imposed in connection with any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.

(e) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, (i) so long as the Discharge of ABL Obligations has not occurred, the ABL 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 ABL Loan Documents, but only to the extent that such Collateral constitutes ABL Priority Collateral, as if the Liens of the Notes Agent on behalf of the Note Claimholders did not exist, and (ii) so long as the Discharge of Note Obligations has not occurred, the Notes 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 Note Documents, but only to the extent that such Collateral constitutes Notes Priority Collateral, as if the Liens of the ABL Agent on behalf of the ABL Claimholders did not exist.

VI.
INSOLVENCY OR LIQUIDATION PROCEEDINGS.

6.1. Finance and Sale Issues.

The Notes Agent, on behalf of the Note Claimholders, hereby agrees that, until the Discharge of ABL Obligations has occurred, if any Grantor shall be subject to any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and the ABL Agent shall desire to permit the use of “Cash Collateral” (as such term is defined in Section 363(a) of the Bankruptcy Code) constituting ABL Priority Collateral or to permit any Grantor to obtain financing, whether from the ABL Claimholders or any other Person under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar Bankruptcy Law (“DIP Financing”) secured by a Lien on ABL Priority Collateral, then any Note Claimholder will not be entitled to raise (and will not raise or support any Person in raising), but instead shall be deemed to have hereby irrevocably and absolutely waived, any objection to, and shall not otherwise in any manner be entitled to oppose or will oppose or support any Person in opposing, such Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing (including, except as expressly provided below, that the Note Claimholders are entitled to adequate protection of their interest in the Collateral as a condition thereto) so long as such Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing meets the following requirements: (i) the Notes Agent and the other Note Claimholders retain a Lien on the Collateral and, with respect to the Notes Priority Collateral, with the same priority as existed prior to the commencement of the Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, (ii) to the extent that

the ABL Agent is granted adequate protection in the form of a Lien, the Notes Agent is permitted to seek a Lien (without objection from the ABL Agent or any ABL Claimholder) on Collateral arising after the commencement of the Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding (so long as, with respect to ABL Priority Collateral, such Lien is junior to the Liens securing such DIP Financing and any other Liens in favor of the ABL Agent), (iii) the terms of the Cash Collateral use or the DIP Financing require that any Lien on the Notes Priority Collateral to secure such DIP Financing is subordinate to the Lien of the Notes Agent securing the Note Obligations with respect thereto and (iv) the terms of such DIP Financing or use of Cash Collateral do not require any Grantor to seek approval for any Plan of Reorganization that is inconsistent with this Agreement. The Notes Agent shall be required to subordinate and will subordinate its Liens in the ABL Priority Collateral to the Liens securing such DIP Financing (and all obligations relating thereto, including any “carve-out” granting administrative priority status or Lien priority to secure repayment of fees and expenses of professionals retained by any debtor or creditors’ committee) and, consistent with the preceding provisions of this Section 6.1, will not request adequate protection or any other relief in connection therewith (except as expressly provided in clause (ii) above); provided, however, if the Liens securing the DIP Financing rank junior to the Liens securing the ABL Obligations, the Notes Agent shall be required to subordinate its Liens in the ABL Priority Collateral to the Liens securing such DIP Financing. The Notes Agent, on behalf of itself and the Note Claimholders, agrees that no such Person shall provide to such Grantor any DIP Financing to the extent that the Notes Agent or any Note Claimholder would, in connection with such financing, be granted a Lien on the ABL Priority Collateral senior to or pari passu with the Liens of the ABL Agent. The ABL Agent, on behalf of itself and the ABL Claimholders, agrees that no such Persons shall provide to such Grantor any DIP Financing to the extent that the ABL Agent or any ABL Claimholder would, in connection with such financing, be granted a Lien on the Notes Priority Collateral senior to or pari passu with the Liens of the Notes Agent.

6.2. Relief from the Automatic Stay.

(a) Until the Discharge of ABL Obligations, the Notes Agent, on behalf of the other Note 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 ABL Priority Collateral, without the prior written consent of the ABL Agent (given or not given in its sole and absolute discretion), unless (i) the ABL Agent already has filed a motion (which remains pending) for such relief with respect to its interest in such ABL Priority Collateral and (ii) a corresponding motion, in the reasonable judgment of the Notes Agent, must be filed for the purpose of preserving the Notes Agent’s ability to receive residual distributions pursuant to Section 4.1, although the Note Claimholders shall otherwise remain subject to the restrictions in Section 3.1 following the granting of any such relief from the automatic stay.

(b) Until the Discharge of Note Obligations has occurred, the ABL Agent, on behalf of the other ABL 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 Notes Priority 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 Notes Agent (given or not given in its sole and absolute discretion), unless (i) the Notes Agent already

has filed a motion (which remains pending) for such relief with respect to its interest in the Notes Priority Collateral and (ii) a corresponding motion, in the reasonable judgment of the ABL Agent, must be filed for the purpose of preserving the ABL Agent’s ability to receive residual distributions pursuant to Section 4.1, although the ABL Agent shall otherwise remain subject to the restrictions in Section 3.2 following the granting of any such relief from the automatic stay.

6.3. Adequate Protection.

(a) The Notes Agent, on behalf of itself and the Note Claimholders, agrees that none of them shall be entitled to contest and none of them shall contest (or support any other Person contesting) (but instead shall be deemed to have hereby irrevocably, absolutely, and unconditionally waived any right):

(i) any request by the ABL Agent or the other ABL Claimholders for relief from the automatic stay with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral; or

(ii) any request by the ABL Agent or the other ABL Claimholders for adequate protection with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral (except to the extent any such adequate protection is a payment from Notes Priority Collateral); or

(iii) any objection by the ABL Agent or the other ABL Claimholders to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on the ABL Agent or the other ABL Claimholders claiming a lack of adequate protection with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral.

(b) The ABL Agent, on behalf of itself and the ABL Claimholders, agrees that none of them shall be entitled to contest and none of them shall contest (or support any other Person contesting) (but instead shall be deemed to have hereby irrevocably, absolutely, and unconditionally waived any right):

(i) any request by the Notes Agent or the other Note Claimholders for relief from the automatic stay with respect to the Notes Priority Collateral, (but such relief shall not modify the rights of the ABL Agent under Section 3.3 hereof); or

(ii) any request by the Notes Agent or the Note Claimholders for adequate protection with respect to the Notes Priority Collateral (except to the extent any such adequate protection is a payment from ABL Priority Collateral); or

(iii) any objection by the Notes Agent or the Note Claimholders to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on the Notes Agent or the Note Claimholders claiming a lack of adequate protection with respect to the Notes Priority Collateral.

(c) Consistent with the foregoing provisions in this Section 6.3, and except as provided in Sections 6.1 and 6.7, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding:

(i) no Note Claimholder shall be entitled (and each Note Claimholder shall be deemed to have hereby irrevocably, absolutely, and unconditionally waived any right):

(1) to seek or otherwise be granted any type of adequate protection with respect to its interests in the ABL Priority Collateral (except as expressly set forth in Section 6.1 or as may otherwise be consented to in writing by the ABL Agent in its sole and absolute discretion); provided, however, subject to Section 6.1, Note Claimholders may seek and obtain adequate protection in the form of an additional or replacement Lien on Collateral so long as (i) the ABL Claimholders have been granted adequate protection in the form of a replacement lien on such Collateral, and (ii) any such Lien on ABL Priority Collateral (and on any Collateral granted as adequate protection for the ABL Claimholders in respect of their interest in such ABL Priority Collateral) is subordinated to the Liens of the ABL Agent in such Collateral on the same basis as the other Liens of the Notes Agent on ABL Priority Collateral; and

(2) to seek or otherwise be granted any adequate protection payments with respect to its interests in the Collateral from Proceeds of ABL Priority Collateral (except as may be consented to in writing by the ABL Agent in its sole and absolute discretion)

(ii) no ABL Claimholder shall be entitled (and each ABL Claimholder shall be deemed to have hereby irrevocably, absolutely, and unconditionally waived any right):

(1) to seek or otherwise be granted any type of adequate protection in respect of Notes Priority Collateral except as may be consented to in writing by the Notes Agent in its sole and absolute discretion; provided, however, ABL Claimholders may seek and obtain adequate protection in the form of an additional or replacement Lien on Collateral so long as (i) the Note Claimholders have been granted adequate protection in the form of a replacement lien on such Collateral, and (ii) any such Lien on Notes Priority Collateral (and on any Collateral granted as adequate protection for the Note Claimholders in respect of their interest in such Notes Priority Collateral) is subordinated to the Liens of the Notes Agent in such Collateral on the same basis as the other Liens of the ABL Agent on Notes Priority Collateral; and

(2) to seek or otherwise be granted any adequate protection payments with respect to its interests in the Collateral from Proceeds of Notes Priority Collateral (except as may be consented to in writing by the Notes Agent in its sole and absolute discretion)

(d) With respect to (i) the Notes Priority Collateral, nothing herein shall limit the rights of the Notes Agent or the Note Claimholders from seeking adequate protection with respect to their rights in the Notes Priority Collateral in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding (including adequate protection in the form of a cash payment, periodic cash payments or otherwise, other than from Proceeds of ABL Priority Collateral) so long as such request is not otherwise inconsistent with this Agreement and (ii) the ABL Priority Collateral, nothing herein shall limit the rights of the ABL Agent or the ABL Claimholders from seeking adequate protection with respect to their rights in the ABL Priority Collateral in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding (including adequate protection in the form of a cash payment, periodic cash payments or otherwise, other than from Proceeds of Notes Priority Collateral) so long as such request is not otherwise inconsistent with this Agreement.

6.4. Avoidance Issues.

If any ABL Claimholder or Note 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 ABL Obligations or the Note Obligations, as applicable (a “Recovery”), then such ABL Claimholders or Note Claimholders shall be entitled to a reinstatement of ABL Obligations or the Note Obligations, as applicable, 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. For clarity, no Claimholder which has received any payments prior to the reinstatement of the other Claimholder’s Obligations shall be obligated to pay over or disgorge such payments to the Claimholder whose Obligations has been reinstated, unless such Claimholder is itself required in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding to turn over or pay amounts in respect of its Obligations to the estate or unless such Claimholder otherwise received any amounts in contravention of this Agreement.

6.5. Reorganization Securities.

Subject to the ability of the ABL Claimholders and the Note Claimholders, as applicable, to support or oppose confirmation or approval of any Conforming Plan of Reorganization or to oppose confirmation or approval of any Non-Conforming Plan of Reorganization, as provided herein, if, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, debt obligations of the reorganized debtor secured by Liens upon any property of the reorganized debtor are distributed pursuant to a Plan of Reorganization, both on account of ABL Obligations and on account of Note Obligations, then, to the extent the debt obligations distributed on account of the ABL Obligations and on account of the Note Obligations are secured by Liens upon the same property, the provisions of this Agreement will survive the distribution of such debt obligations pursuant to such plan and will apply with like effect to the debt obligations so distributed, to the Liens securing such debt obligations and the distribution of Proceeds thereof.

6.6. Post-Petition Interest.

(a) Neither the Notes Agent nor any Note Claimholder shall oppose or seek to challenge:

(i) any claim by the ABL Agent or any ABL Claimholder for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of ABL Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses to the extent of the value of the Lien on the ABL Priority Collateral securing any ABL Claimholder’s claim, without regard to the existence of the Lien of the Notes Agent on behalf of the Note Claimholders on the Collateral;

(ii) the payment of such expenses allowed in accordance with Section 6.6(a)(i);

(iii) the payment of such interest and fees allowed in accordance with Section 6.6(a)(i) solely from Proceeds of ABL Priority Collateral;

provided that nothing contained in this Section 6.6(a) prohibits the Notes Agent on behalf of the Note Claimholders from seeking adequate protection (to the extent it has not already done so under other provisions of this Agreement) with respect to their rights in the Notes Priority Collateral in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding if such Notes Priority Collateral is the source of payment of post-petition expenses payable to the ABL Agent or any ABL Claimholder.

(b) Neither the ABL Agent nor any other ABL Claimholder shall oppose or seek to challenge:

(i) any claim by the Notes Agent or any Note Claimholder for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of Note Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses to the extent of the value of the Lien on the Notes Priority Collateral securing any Note Claimholder’s claim, without regard to the existence of the Lien of the ABL Agent on behalf of the ABL Claimholders on the Collateral;

(ii) the payment of such expenses allowed in accordance with Section 6.6(b)(i);

(iii) the payment of such interest and fees allowed in accordance with Section 6.6(b)(i) solely from Proceeds of Notes Priority Collateral

provided that nothing contained in this Section 6.6(b) prohibits the ABL Agent on behalf of the ABL Claimholders from seeking adequate protection (to the extent it has not already done so under other provisions of this Agreement) with respect to their rights in the ABL Priority Collateral in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding if such ABL Priority Collateral is the source of payment of post-petition expenses payable to the Notes Agent or any Note Claimholder.

6.7. Separate Grants of Security and Separate Classification.

The Notes Agent, on behalf of the Note Claimholders, and the ABL Agent on behalf of the ABL Claimholders, acknowledge and intend that: the grants of Liens pursuant to the ABL Security Documents and the Note Security Documents constitute two separate and distinct grants of Liens, and because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Collateral, the Note Obligations are fundamentally different from the ABL Obligations and must be separately classified in any Plan of Reorganization proposed or confirmed (or approved) in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, if it is held that the claims of the ABL Claimholders and the Note Claimholders in respect of the Collateral constitute claims in the same class (rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims), then the ABL Claimholders and the Note Claimholders hereby acknowledge and agree that all distributions shall be made as if there were separate classes of ABL Obligations and Note Obligations against the Grantors (with the effect being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the ABL Priority Collateral or Notes Priority Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the other Secured Parties for whom such Collateral is non-priority in accordance with Section 2.1 and Section 2.2), the ABL Claimholders or the Note Claimholders, respectively, 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, fees or expenses that is available from each pool of priority Collateral for each of the ABL Claimholders and the Note Claimholders, respectively, before any distribution is made in respect of the claims held by the other Secured Parties for whom such Collateral is non-priority, with such other Secured Parties hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the respective other Secured Parties amounts otherwise received or receivable by them to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing the aggregate recoveries.

6.8. Asset Dispositions in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.

(a) Without limiting the ABL Agent’s and the ABL Claimholders’ rights under Section 3.1(b), neither the Notes Agent nor any other Note Claimholder shall, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise, oppose any sale or disposition of any ABL Priority Collateral that is supported by the ABL Claimholders, and the Notes Agent and each other Note Claimholder will be deemed to have irrevocably, absolutely, and unconditionally consented under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (and otherwise) to any sale of any ABL Priority Collateral supported by the ABL Claimholders and to have released their Liens on such assets; provided that to the extent the Proceeds of such Collateral are not applied to reduce ABL Obligations the Notes Agent shall retain a Lien on such Proceeds in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(b) Without limiting the Notes Agent’s and the Note Claimholders’ rights under Section 3.2(b), neither the ABL Agent nor any other ABL Claimholder shall, in any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise, oppose any sale or disposition of any Notes Priority Collateral that is supported by the Note Claimholders and made subject to Section 3.3(d), and the ABL Agent and each other ABL Claimholder will be deemed to have consented under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (and otherwise) to any sale of any Notes Priority Collateral supported by the Note Claimholders and to have released their Liens on such assets; provided that to the extent the Proceeds of such Collateral are not applied to reduce Note Obligations, the ABL Agent shall retain a Lien on such Proceeds in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; provided further that the ABL Agent’s and the ABL Claimholders’ rights under Sections 3.3 shall survive any such sale or disposition.

(iv) exercise or delay in or refrain from exercising any right or remedy against any security or any Grantor or any other Person, elect any remedy and otherwise deal freely with any Grantor.

7.4. Obligations Unconditional.

VIII.
MISCELLANEOUS.

8.1. Conflicts.

In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of any ABL Loan Document or any Note Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern and control.

8.2. Effectiveness; Continuing Nature of this Agreement; Severability.

This Agreement shall become effective when executed and delivered by the parties hereto. This is a continuing agreement of Lien subordination (as opposed to an agreement of debt or claim subordination), and the ABL Claimholders and Note Claimholders may continue, at any time and without notice to the other Agent, to extend credit and other financial accommodations and lend monies to or for the benefit of any Grantor in reliance hereon. Each of the Agents, on behalf the ABL Claimholders or the Note Claimholders, as applicable, hereby irrevocably, absolutely, and unconditionally waives any right any Claimholder may have under applicable law to revoke this Agreement or any of the provisions of this Agreement. The terms of this Agreement shall survive, and shall continue in full force and effect, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. Consistent with, but not in limitation of, the preceding sentence, each of the Agents, on behalf of the ABL Claimholders and the Note Claimholders, as applicable, irrevocably acknowledges that this Agreement constitutes a “subordination agreement” within the meaning of both New York law and Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. All references to any Grantor shall include such Grantor as debtor and debtor-in-possession and any receiver or trustee for any Grantor (as applicable) in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. This Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect:

(b) with respect to the Notes Agent, the Note Claimholders and the Note Obligations, the date of the Discharge of Note Obligations, subject to the rights of the Note Claimholders under Section 6.4.

8.3. Amendments; Waivers.

No amendment, modification or waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement by the Notes Agent or the ABL Agent shall be deemed to be made unless the same shall be in writing signed on behalf of each party hereto or its authorized agent and each waiver, if any, shall be a waiver only with respect to the specific instance involved and shall in no way impair the rights of the parties making such waiver or the obligations of the other parties to such party in any other respect or at any other time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Grantor shall have any right to consent to or approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement except to the extent its rights are directly affected.

8.4. Information Concerning Financial Condition of the Issuers and Their Subsidiaries.

The ABL Agent and the ABL Claimholders, on the one hand, and the Notes Agent and the Note Claimholders, on the other hand, shall each be responsible for keeping themselves informed of (a) the financial condition of the Issuers and the Company Subsidiaries and all endorsers and/or guarantors and other Grantors of the ABL Obligations or the Note Obligations and (b) all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the ABL Obligations or the Note Obligations. Neither the ABL Claimholders, on the one hand, nor the Note Claimholders, on the other hand, shall have any duty to advise the other of information known to it or them regarding such condition or any such circumstances or otherwise. In the event that either the ABL Agent or any of the other ABL Claimholders, on the one hand, or the Notes Agent or any of the other Note Claimholders, on the other hand, undertakes at any time or from time to time to provide any such information to any of the others, it or they shall be under no obligation, (i) to make, and shall not make, any express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the accuracy, completeness, truthfulness or validity of any such information so provided, (ii) to provide any additional information or to provide any such information on any subsequent occasion, (iii) to undertake any investigation, or (iv) to disclose any information, which pursuant to accepted or reasonable commercial finance practices, such party wishes to maintain confidential or is otherwise required to maintain confidential.

8.5. Subrogation.

(a) With respect to the value of any payments or distributions in cash, property or other assets that any of the Note Claimholders actually pays over to the ABL Agent or the ABL Claimholders under the terms of this Agreement, the Note Claimholders shall be subrogated to the rights of the ABL Claimholders; provided, however, that the Notes Agent, on behalf of the Note Claimholders, hereby agrees not to assert or enforce all such rights of subrogation it may acquire as a result of any payment hereunder until the Discharge of ABL Obligations has occurred. The Grantors acknowledge and agree that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the value of any payments or distributions in cash, property or other assets received by the Note Claimholders that are paid over to the ABL Claimholders pursuant to this Agreement shall not reduce any of the Note Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.5(a), none of the Note Claimholders shall have any claim against any of the ABL Claimholders for any impairment of any subrogation rights herein granted to the Note Claimholders.

(b) With respect to the value of any payments or distributions in cash, property or other assets that any of the ABL Claimholders actually pays over to the Note Claimholders under the terms of this Agreement, the ABL Claimholders shall be subrogated to the rights of the Note Claimholders; provided, however, that the ABL Agent, on behalf of the ABL Claimholders, hereby agrees not to assert or enforce all such rights of subrogation it may acquire as a result of any payment hereunder until the Discharge of Note Obligations has occurred. The Grantors acknowledge and agree that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the value of any payments or distributions in cash, property or other assets received by the ABL Claimholders that are paid over to the Note Claimholders pursuant to this Agreement shall not reduce any of the ABL Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.5(b), none of the ABL Claimholders shall have any claim against any of the Note Claimholders for any impairment of any subrogation rights herein granted to the ABL Claimholders.

(3) WAIVES ANY DEFENSE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS;

All notices permitted or required under this Agreement need be sent only to the Notes Agent and the ABL Agent, as applicable, in order to be effective and otherwise binding on any applicable Claimholder. If any notice is sent for whatever reason to the other Note Claimholders or the ABL Claimholders, such notice shall also be sent to the applicable Agent. Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, any notice hereunder shall be in writing and may be personally served, telexed or sent by telefacsimile or United States mail or courier service and shall be deemed to have been given when delivered in person or by overnight courier service and signed for against receipt thereof, upon receipt of telefacsimile or telex during normal business hours, or three Business Days after depositing it in the United States certified mails (return receipt requested) with postage prepaid and properly addressed.

The ABL Agent, on behalf of itself and the ABL Claimholders, and the Notes Agent, on behalf of itself and the Note Claimholders, hereby irrevocably waive any defense based on the adequacy of a remedy at law and any other defense which might be asserted to bar the remedy of specific performance in any action which may be brought by the ABL Agent or the other ABL Claimholders or the Notes Agent or the other Note Claimholders, as applicable. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or of the other provisions of this Agreement, in seeking specific performance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, an Agent may seek such relief as if it were the “holder” of the claims of the other Agent’s Claimholders under Section 1126(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise had been granted an irrevocable power of attorney by the other Agent’s Claimholders.

8.11. Headings.

Section headings in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose or be given any substantive effect.

8.12. Counterparts.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such separate counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

8.13. Authorization.
