(b) No First Priority Secured Party or Second Priority Secured Party shall object to or contest, or support any other Person in contesting or objecting to, in any proceeding (including without limitation, any Insolvency Proceeding), the validity, extent, perfection, priority or enforceability of any security interest in the Common Collateral granted to the other. Notwithstanding any failure by any First Priority Secured Party or Second Priority Secured Party to perfect its security interests in the Common Collateral or any avoidance, invalidation or subordination by any third party or court of competent jurisdiction of the security interests in the Common Collateral granted to the First Priority Secured Parties or the Second Priority Secured parties, the priority and rights as between the First Priority Secured Parties and the Second Priority Secured Parties with respect to the Common Collateral shall be as set forth herein.

2.2. Nature of First Priority Obligations. The Second Priority Representative on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties acknowledges that the terms of the First Priority Obligations may be modified, extended or amended from time to time, and that the aggregate amount of the First Priority Obligations may be increased, replaced or refinanced, in each event, without notice to or consent by the Second Priority Secured Parties and without affecting the provisions hereof. The lien priorities provided in Section 2.1 shall not be altered or otherwise affected by any such amendment, modification, supplement, extension, repayment, reborrowing, increase, replacement, renewal, restatement or refinancing of either the First Priority Obligations or the Second Priority Obligations, or any portion thereof.

2.3. Agreements Regarding Actions to Perfect Liens. (a) The Second Priority Representative on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties agrees that UCC-1 financing statements, patent, trademark or copyright filings or other filings or recordings filed or recorded by or on behalf of the Second Priority Representative, subsequent to the date hereof, shall be in form satisfactory to the First Priority Creditor.

(b) The Second Priority Representative agrees on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties that all mortgages, deeds of trust, deeds and similar instruments (collectively, “mortgages”) now or hereafter filed against Real Property that constitutes Common Collateral in favor of or for the benefit of the Second Priority Representative and the other Second Priority Secured Parties shall be in form satisfactory to the First Priority Creditor and shall contain the following notation: “The lien created by this mortgage on the property described herein is junior and subordinate to the lien on such property created by any mortgage, deed of trust or similar instrument now or hereafter granted to the First Priority Creditor, and its successors and assigns, in such property, in accordance with the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement dated as of September 15, 2015 among Ranbaxy, Inc., U.S. Bank National Association and InSite Vision Incorporated, as amended from time to time.”

(c) The First Priority Creditor hereby acknowledges that, to the extent that it holds, or a third party holds on its behalf, physical possession of or “control” (as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code) over Common Collateral pursuant to the First Priority Security Documents, such possession or control is also for the benefit of and on behalf of, and the First Priority Creditor or such third party holds such possession or control as bailee and agent for, the Second Priority Representative and the other Second Priority Secured Parties solely to the extent required to perfect their security interest in such Common Collateral (such bailment and agency for perfection being intended, among other things, to satisfy the requirements of Sections 8-301(a)(2) and 9-313(c) of the Uniform Commercial Code). Nothing in the preceding sentence shall be construed to impose any duty on the First Priority Creditor (or any third party acting on its behalf) with respect to such Common Collateral or provide the Second Priority Representative or any other Second Priority Secured Party with any rights with respect to such Common Collateral beyond those specified in this Agreement and the Second Priority Security Documents, provided that subsequent to the occurrence of the First Priority Obligations Payment Date, the First Priority Creditor shall (i) deliver to the Second Priority Representative, at the Company’s sole cost and expense, the Common Collateral in its possession or control together with any necessary endorsements to the

extent required by the Second Priority Documents (and to the extent not so required, such delivery shall be made to the Company) or (ii) direct and deliver such Common Collateral as a court of competent jurisdiction otherwise directs, and provided, further, that the provisions of this Agreement are intended solely to govern the respective Lien priorities as between the First Priority Secured Parties and the Second Priority Secured Parties and shall not impose on the First Priority Secured Parties any obligations in respect of the disposition of any Common Collateral (or any proceeds thereof) that would conflict with prior perfected Liens or any claims thereon in favor of any other Person that is not a Secured Party.

2.4. No New Liens. So long as the First Priority Obligations Payment Date has not occurred, the parties hereto agree that (a) neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries shall have any right to create any Lien, on any assets of the Company or any such subsidiary securing any Second Priority Obligation and (b) if any Second Priority Secured Party shall acquire or hold any Lien on any assets of the Borrower securing any Second Priority Obligation which assets are not also subject to the first-priority Lien of the First Priority Creditor under the First Priority Documents, then the Second Priority Representative, upon demand by the First Priority Creditor, will without the need for any further consent of any other Second Priority Secured Party, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any other Second Priority Document either (i) release such Lien or (ii) assign it to the First Priority Creditor as security for the First Priority Obligations (in which case the Second Priority Representative may retain a junior lien on such assets subject to the terms hereof). To the extent that the foregoing provisions are not complied with for any reason, without limiting any other rights and remedies available to the First Priority Secured Parties, the Second Priority Representative and the other Second Priority Secured Parties agree that any amounts received by or distributed to any of them pursuant to or as a result of Liens granted in contravention of this Section 2.4 shall be subject to Section 4.1.

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a default or an event of acceleration under the First Priority Documents, the First Priority Creditor and the other First Priority Secured Parties may take and continue any Enforcement Action with respect to the First Priority Obligations and the Common Collateral in such order and manner as they may determine in their sole discretion.

(c) they will not contest, oppose, object to, interfere with, hinder or delay, in any manner, whether by judicial proceedings (including without limitation the filing of an Insolvency Proceeding) or otherwise, any foreclosure, sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of the Common Collateral by any First Priority Secured Party or any other Enforcement Action taken (or any forbearance from taking any Enforcement Action) by or on behalf of any First Priority Secured Party;

(d) they have no right to (i) direct either the First Priority Creditor or any other First Priority Secured Party to exercise any right, remedy or power with respect to the Common Collateral or pursuant to the First Priority Security Documents or (ii) consent or object to the exercise by the First Priority Creditor or any other First Priority Secured Party of any right, remedy or power with respect to the Common Collateral or pursuant to the First Priority Security Documents or to the timing or manner in which any such right is exercised or not exercised (or, to the extent they may have any such right described in this clause (d), whether as a junior lien creditor or otherwise, they hereby irrevocably waive such right);

(e) they will not institute any suit or other proceeding or assert in any suit, Insolvency Proceeding or other proceeding any claim against any First Priority Secured Party seeking damages from or other relief by way of specific performance, injunction or otherwise, with respect to, and no First Priority Secured Party shall be liable for, any action taken or omitted to be taken by any First Priority Secured Party with respect to the Common Collateral or pursuant to the First Priority Documents;

(f) they will not seek, and hereby waive any right, to have the Common Collateral or any part thereof marshaled upon any foreclosure or other disposition of the Common Collateral;

(h) they will not commence judicial or non-judicial foreclosure proceedings with respect to, seek to have a trustee, receiver, liquidator or similar official

appointed for or over, attempt any action to take possession of any Common Collateral, exercise any right, remedy or power with respect to, or otherwise take any action to enforce their interest in or realize upon, the Common Collateral or pursuant to the Second Priority Security Documents;

provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any Second Priority Secured Party may exercise its rights and remedies in respect of the Common Collateral under the Second Priority Security Documents or applicable law after the passage of a period of 180 days (the “Standstill Period”) from the date of delivery of a notice in writing to the First Priority Creditor of its intention to exercise such rights and remedies, which notice may only be delivered following the occurrence of and during the continuation of an “Event of Acceleration” under and as defined in the Second Priority Agreement; provided, further, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall any Second Priority Secured Party exercise or continue to exercise any such rights or remedies if, notwithstanding the expiration of the Standstill Period, (i) any First Priority Secured Party shall have commenced and be diligently pursuing the exercise of any of its rights and remedies with respect to any of the Common Collateral (prompt notice of such exercise to be given to the Second Priority Representative by such First Priority Secured Party) or (ii) an Insolvency Proceeding in respect of the Company shall have been commenced; and provided, further, that in any Insolvency Proceeding commenced by or against the Company, the Second Priority Representative and the Second Priority Secured Parties may take any action expressly permitted by Section 5.

3.6. Actions Upon Breach. (a) If any Second Priority Secured Party, contrary to this Agreement, commences or participates in any action or proceeding against the Company or the Common Collateral, the Company, with the prior written consent of the First Priority Secured Representative, may interpose as a defense or dilatory plea the making of this Agreement, and any First Priority Secured Party may intervene and interpose such defense or plea in its or their name or in the name of the Company.

(b) Should any Second Priority Secured Party, contrary to this Agreement, in any way take, attempt to or threaten to take any action with respect to the Common Collateral (including, without limitation, any attempt to realize upon or enforce any remedy with respect to this Agreement), or fail to take any action required by this Agreement, any First Priority Secured Party (in its own name or in the name of the Company) or the Company may obtain relief against such Second Priority Secured Party by injunction, specific performance and/or other appropriate equitable relief, it being understood and agreed by the Second Priority Representative on behalf of each Second Priority Secured Party that (i) the First Priority Secured Parties’ damages from its actions may at that time be difficult to ascertain and may be irreparable, and (ii) each Second Priority Secured Party waives any defense that the Company and/or the First Priority Secured Parties cannot demonstrate damage and/or be made whole by the awarding of damages.

5.4. Adequate Protection. The Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties, agrees that none of them shall object, contest, or support any other Person objecting to or contesting, (a) any request by the First Priority Creditor or the other First Priority Secured Parties for adequate protection of its interest in the Common Collateral or any adequate protection provided to the First Priority Creditor or the other First Priority Secured Parties, (b) any objection by the First Priority Creditor or any other First Priority Secured Parties to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on a claim of a lack of adequate protection in the Common Collateral or (c) the payment of interest, fees, expenses or other amounts to the First Priority Creditor or any other First Priority Secured Party under Section 506(b) or 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise. The Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties, further agrees that, prior to the First Priority Obligations Payment Date, none of them shall assert or enforce any claim under Section 506(b) or 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise that is senior to or on a parity with the First Priority Liens for costs or expenses of preserving or

disposing of any Common Collateral. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section and in Section 5.2(b), but subject to all other provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 5.2(a) and Section 5.3), in any Insolvency Proceeding, (i) if the First Priority Secured Parties (or any subset thereof) are granted adequate protection consisting of additional collateral that constitutes Common Collateral (with replacement liens on such additional collateral) and superpriority claims in connection with any DIP Financing or use of cash collateral with respect to the Common Collateral, and the First Priority Secured Parties do not object to the adequate protection being provided to them, then in connection with any such DIP Financing or use of cash collateral the Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and any of the Second Priority Secured Parties, may, as adequate protection of their interests in the Common Collateral, seek or accept adequate protection consisting solely of (x) a replacement Lien on the same additional collateral, subordinated to the Liens securing the First Priority Obligations and such DIP Financing on the same basis as the other Second Priority Liens on the Common Collateral are so subordinated to the First Priority Obligations under this Agreement, (y) superpriority claims junior in all respects to the superpriority claims granted to the First Priority Secured Parties and (z) subject to the right of the First Priority Secured Parties to object thereto, the payment of post-petition interest at the pre- default rate (provided, in the case of this clause (z), that the First Priority Secured Parties have been granted adequate protection in the form of post-petition interest at a rate no lower than the pre-default rate), provided, however, that the Second Priority Representative shall have irrevocably agreed, pursuant to Section 1129(a)(9) of the Bankruptcy Code, on behalf of itself and the Second Priority Secured Parties, in any stipulation and/or order granting such adequate protection, that such junior superpriority claims may be paid under any plan of reorganization in any combination of cash, debt, equity or other property having a value on the effective date of such plan equal to the allowed amount of such claims and (ii) in the event the Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the Second Priority Secured Parties, seeks or accepts adequate protection in accordance with clause (i) above and such adequate protection is granted in the form of additional collateral, then the Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself or any of the Second Priority Secured Parties, agrees that the First Priority Creditor shall also be granted a senior Lien on such additional collateral as security for the First Priority Obligations and any such DIP Financing and that any Lien on such additional collateral securing the Second Priority Obligations shall be subordinated to the Liens on such collateral securing the First Priority Obligations and any such DIP Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto) and any other Liens granted to the First Priority Secured Parties as adequate protection, with such subordination to be on the same terms that the other Liens securing the Second Priority Obligations are subordinated to such First Priority Obligations under this Agreement. The Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties, agrees that except as expressly set forth in this Section none of them shall seek or accept adequate protection with respect to their interests in the Common Collateral without the prior written consent of the First Priority Creditor.

5.5. Avoidance Issues. If any First Priority Secured Party is required in any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise to disgorge, turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of the Company, because such amount was avoided or ordered to be paid or disgorged for any reason, including without limitation because it was found to be a fraudulent or preferential transfer, any amount (a “Recovery”), whether received as proceeds of security, enforcement of any right of set-off or otherwise, then the First Priority Obligations shall be reinstated to the extent of such

Recovery and deemed to be outstanding as if such payment had not occurred and the First Priority Obligations Payment Date shall be deemed not to have occurred. If this Agreement shall have been terminated prior to such Recovery, this Agreement shall be reinstated in full force and effect, and such prior termination shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the obligations of the parties hereto. The Second Priority Secured Parties agree that none of them shall be entitled to benefit from any avoidance action affecting or otherwise relating to any distribution or allocation made in accordance with this Agreement, whether by preference or otherwise, it being understood and agreed that the benefit of such avoidance action otherwise allocable to them shall instead be allocated and turned over for application in accordance with the priorities set forth in this Agreement.

5.6. Asset Dispositions in an Insolvency Proceeding. In an Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise, neither the Second Priority Representative nor any other Second Priority Secured Party shall oppose any sale or disposition of any assets of the Company that is supported by the First Priority Secured Parties, and the Second Priority Representative and each other Second Priority Secured Party will be deemed to have consented under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (or otherwise) to any sale supported by the First Priority Secured Parties and to have released their Liens on such assets.

5.7. Separate Grants of Security and Separate Classification. Each Secured Party acknowledges and agrees that (a) the grants of Liens pursuant to the First Priority Security Documents and the Second Priority Security Documents constitute two separate and distinct grants of Liens and (b) because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Common Collateral, the First Priority Obligations and the Second Priority Obligations are fundamentally different from each other and must be separately classified in any plan of reorganization proposed or adopted in an Insolvency Proceeding. To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, if it is held that the claims of the First Priority Secured Parties and Second Priority Secured Parties in respect of the Common Collateral constitute only one secured claim (rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims), then the Second Priority Secured Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that all distributions shall be made as if there were separate classes of senior and junior secured claims against the Company in respect of the Common Collateral, with the effect being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the Common Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the Second Priority Secured Parties), the First Priority Secured Parties shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them in respect of principal, pre-petition interest and other claims, all amounts owing in respect of Post-Petition Interest before any distribution is made in respect of the claims held by the Second Secured Priority Secured Parties. The Second Priority Secured Parties hereby acknowledge and agree to turn over to the First Priority Secured Parties amounts otherwise received or receivable by them to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of the preceding sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing the claim or recovery of the Second Priority Secured Parties.

5.8. No Waivers of Rights of First Priority Secured Parties. Nothing contained herein shall prohibit or in any way limit the First Priority Creditor or any other First Priority Secured Party from objecting in any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise to any action taken by any Second Priority Secured Party, including the seeking by any Second Priority Secured Party of adequate protection (except as provided in Section 5.4).

5.9. Plans of Reorganization. No Second Priority Secured Party shall propose, support or vote in favor of any plan of reorganization (and each shall be deemed to have voted to reject any plan of reorganization) unless such plan (a) pays off, in cash in full, all First Priority Obligations or (b) is accepted by the class of holders of First Priority Obligations voting thereon and is supported by the First Priority Creditor.

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

5.11. Effectiveness in Insolvency Proceedings. This Agreement, which the parties hereto expressly acknowledge is a “subordination agreement” under section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, shall be effective before, during and after the commencement of an Insolvency Proceeding.

SECTION 6. Security Documents.

(a) The Company and the Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the Second Priority Secured Parties, agrees that it shall not at any time execute or deliver any amendment or other modification to any of the Second Priority Documents in violation of this Agreement.

(b) The Company and the First Priority Creditor, on behalf of itself and the First Priority Secured Parties, agrees that it shall not at any time execute or deliver any amendment or other modification to any of the First Priority Documents in violation of this Agreement.

(c) In the event the First Priority Creditor enters into any amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the First Priority Security Documents for the purpose of adding to, or deleting from, or waiving or consenting to any departures from any provisions of, any First Priority Security Document or changing in any manner the rights of any parties thereunder (other than with respect to amendments, modifications or waivers that secure additional extensions of credit and add additional secured creditors or add additional guarantees or collateral), then such amendment, waiver or consent shall apply to any comparable provision of the Comparable Second Priority Security Document (with all such amendments, waivers and modifications subject to the terms hereof) and the Company and the Second Priority Secured Parties (and the required Second Priority Secured Parties shall instruct the Second Priority Representative in writing to execute the same) will work in good faith to promptly negotiate and execute any necessary amendments to such Comparable Second Priority Security Documents to give effect to this Section 6(c); provided, that (i) no such amendment, waiver or consent shall have the effect of removing assets subject to the Lien of any Second Priority Security Document,

except to the extent that a release of such Lien is permitted by Section 4.2, (ii) any such amendment, waiver or consent that materially and adversely affects the rights of the Second Priority Secured Parties (other than the Second Priority Representative) and does not affect the First Priority Secured Parties in a like or similar manner shall not apply to the Second Priority Security Documents without the consent of the Second Priority Representative (to be given or withheld in accordance with the Second Priority Agreement), and (iii) notice of such amendment, waiver or consent shall be given to the Second Priority Representative no later than 30 days after its effectiveness; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the effectiveness and validity thereof. The Second Priority Documents may not be amended in a manner that would increase (i) the principal amount thereunder or (ii) the interest rate thereon, in each case, without the prior written consent of the First Priority Creditor.

(d) The First Priority Obligations and the Second Priority Obligations may be refinanced or replaced, in whole or in part, in each case, without notice to, or the consent (except to the extent a consent is otherwise required to permit the refinancing transaction under any First Priority Agreement or any Second Priority Agreement) of any First Priority Secured Party or any Second Priority Secured Party, all without affecting the Lien priorities provided for herein or the other provisions hereof; provided, however, that the holders of any such refinancing or replacement Indebtedness (or an authorized agent or trustee on their behalf) bind themselves in writing to the terms of this Agreement pursuant to such documents or agreements (including amendments or supplements to this Agreement) as the First Priority Creditor or the Second Priority Representative, as the case may be, shall reasonably request and in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the First Priority Creditor or the Second Priority Representative, as the case may be; provided that such documents or agreements shall comply with Section 6(a) and Section 6(b).

(e) If at any time in connection with or after the discharge of all First Priority Obligations, the Company enters into any replacement First Priority Agreement secured by all or a portion of the First Priority Collateral on a first-priority basis, then such prior discharge of First Priority Obligations shall automatically be deemed not to have occurred for the purposes of this Agreement, and the obligations under such replacement First Priority Agreement shall automatically be treated as First Priority Obligations for all purposes of this Agreement, including for purposes of the Lien priorities and rights in respect of the First Priority Collateral (or such portion thereof) set forth therein; provided that, the First Priority Secured Parties, the Second Priority Secured Parties (and the required Second Priority Secured Parties shall instruct the Second Priority Representative to execute the same) and the Company will work in good faith to promptly negotiate and execute an amendment to this Agreement giving effect to this Section 6(e).

(f) In connection with any refinancing or replacement contemplated by Section 6(d) or 6(e), this Agreement may be amended at the request and sole expense of the Company, and without the consent of the First Priority Creditor, the First Priority Secured Parties, or the Second Priority Representative or the Second Priority Secured Parties (a) to add parties (or any authorized agent or trustee therefor) providing any such refinancing or replacement indebtedness, (b) to establish that Liens on any First Priority Collateral securing such refinancing or replacement indebtedness shall have the same priority (or junior priority) as the Liens on any First Priority Collateral securing the Indebtedness being refinanced or replaced

and (c) to establish that Liens on any Second Priority Collateral securing such refinancing or replacement indebtedness shall have the same priority as the Liens on any Second Priority Collateral securing the indebtedness being refinanced or replaced, all on the terms provided for immediately prior to such refinancing or replacement.

SECTION 7. Reliance; Waivers; etc.

7.1. Reliance. The First Priority Documents are deemed to have been executed and delivered, and all extensions of credit thereunder are deemed to have been made or incurred, in reliance upon this Agreement.

SECTION 9. Miscellaneous.

9.1. Conflicts. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of any First Priority Document or any Second Priority Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto acknowledge that the terms of this Agreement are not intended to and shall not, as between the Company and the Secured Parties, negate, impair, waive or cancel any rights granted to, or carry liability or obligation of, the Company in the First Priority Documents and the Second Priority Documents or impose any additional obligations on the Company (other than as expressly set forth herein).

9.2. Continuing Nature of Provisions. This Agreement shall continue to be effective, and shall not be revocable by any party hereto, until the First Priority Obligation Payment Date shall have occurred. This is a continuing agreement and the First Priority Secured

9.3. Amendments; Waivers.

Each such party agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

(b) Each First Priority Secured Party, each Second Priority Secured Party and the Company hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so (i) any objection it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court referred to in paragraph (a) of this Section and (ii) the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding.

9.10. Severability.

9.11. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.

(a) upon the occurrence of the Closing Date (as defined in the Merger Agreement, the “Merger Agreement Closing Date”)), to the extent the Second Priority Creditors have not been paid in full, (i) all Liens in favor of any Second Priority Secured Party securing the Second Priority Obligations shall be deemed to rank senior in all respects to the Liens in favor of the First Priority Secured Parties securing the First Priority Secured Obligations, (ii) the First Priority Creditor shall promptly deliver to the Second Priority Representative or its designees any and all possessory Common Collateral that it is holding pursuant to the terms of the First Priority Documents, and (iii) in furtherance of the foregoing, the First Priority Creditor and the Majority Holders (as defined in the Existing Second Priority Agreement) (who shall instruct the Second Priority Representative to execute the same) will work in good faith to promptly negotiate and execute an amendment to this Agreement providing that Ranbaxy, Inc., as the First Priority Creditor under this Agreement, shall become the second priority creditor and U.S. Bank National Association, as collateral agent, and as the Second Priority Representative under this Agreement, shall become the first priority creditor, all on terms substantially equivalent to those set forth in this Agreement governing the relative priorities and rights of the First Priority Creditor and Second Priority Creditors (the “Post Merger Amended Intercreditor Agreement”), upon and after which the Post Merger Amended Intercreditor Agreement shall be deemed the “Intercreditor Agreement” as defined in the Existing First Priority Agreement; and

(b) upon the occurrence, and during the continuation of, a Sun Default (i) all Liens in favor of any Second Priority Secured Party securing the Second Priority Obligations shall be deemed to rank pari passu in all respects with the Liens in favor of the First Priority Secured Parties securing the First Priority Secured Obligations and (ii) in furtherance of the foregoing, the First Priority Creditor and the Majority Holders (as defined in the Existing Second Priority Agreement) (who shall instruct the Second Priority Representative to execute the same) will work in good faith to promptly negotiate and execute an amendment to this Agreement to give effect to such pari passu ranking.
