Agent or any Lender (or any agent, designee or nominee thereof) votes any claim in accordance with the authority granted hereby, such Subordinated Creditor shall not be entitled to change or withdraw such vote.

The Senior Indebtedness shall continue to be treated as Senior Indebtedness and the provisions hereof shall continue to govern the relative rights and priorities of Lenders and the Subordinated Creditors even if all or part of the Senior Indebtedness or the security interests securing the Senior Indebtedness are subordinated, set aside, avoided or disallowed in connection with any such Proceeding and the provisions hereof shall be reinstated if at any time any payment of any of the Senior Indebtedness is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by Agent, any Lender or any agent, designee or nominee of such holder.

2.4 Incorrect Payments. If any payment (whether made in cash, securities or other property) not permitted under this Agreement is received by any Subordinated Creditor on account of the Subordinated Indebtedness before all Senior Indebtedness is Paid in Full, such payment shall not be commingled with any asset of such Subordinated Creditor, shall be held in trust by such Subordinated Creditor for the benefit of the Lenders and shall promptly be paid over to the Lenders, or their respective designated representatives, for application (in accordance with the Purchase Agreement, the Notes or the Permitted Refinancing Loan Documents) to the payment of the Senior Indebtedness then remaining unpaid, until all of the Senior Indebtedness is Paid in Full.

2.5 Sale, Transfer. No Subordinated Creditor shall sell, assign, dispose of or otherwise transfer all or any portion of the Subordinated Indebtedness or any Subordinated Note or other Subordinated Indebtedness Document (a) without giving prior written notice of such action to Agent, (b) unless prior to the consummation of any such action, the transferee thereof shall execute and deliver to Agent and the Lenders a joinder to this Agreement, or an agreement substantially identical to this Agreement and acceptable to Agent and the Lenders, in either case providing for the continued subordination and forbearance of the Subordinated Indebtedness to the Senior Indebtedness as provided herein and for the continued effectiveness of all of the rights of Agent and Lenders arising under this Agreement and (c) unless following such sale, assignment, pledge, disposition or other transfer, there shall either be (i) no more than two more than the number of holders of Subordinated Indebtedness on the date hereof or (ii) one Person acting as agent for all holders of the Subordinated Indebtedness pursuant to documentation reasonably satisfactory to Agent, such that any notices and communications to be delivered to Subordinated Creditors hereunder and any consents required by Subordinated Creditors shall be made to or obtained from such agent and shall be binding on each Subordinated Creditor as if directly obtained from such Subordinated Creditor. In the event of a permitted sale, assignment, disposition or other transfer, each Subordinated Creditor engaging in such sale, assignment, disposition or other transfer, prior to the consummation of any such action, shall cause the transferee thereof to execute and deliver to Agent and the Lenders a joinder to this Agreement, or an agreement substantially identical to this Agreement and acceptable to the Lenders, in either case providing for the continued subordination and forbearance of the

Subordinated Indebtedness to the Senior Indebtedness as provided herein and for the continued effectiveness of all of the rights of Lenders and Agent arising under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the failure to execute or deliver any such agreement, the subordination effected hereby shall survive any sale, assignment, disposition or other transfer of all or any portion of the Subordinated Indebtedness, and the terms of this Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each Subordinated Creditor, as provided in Section 10 below.

2.6 Legends. Until the Senior Indebtedness is Paid in Full, each of the Subordinated Indebtedness Documents at all times shall contain in a conspicuous manner the following legend:

2.7 Restriction on Action by Subordinated Creditors.

(a) Until the Senior Indebtedness is Paid in Full and notwithstanding anything contained in the Subordinated Indebtedness Documents, the Purchase Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the Permitted Refinancing Loan Documents to the contrary, no Subordinated Creditor shall, without the prior written consent of Agent, agree to any amendment, modification or supplement to the Subordinated Indebtedness Documents, the effect of which is to (i) increase the maximum principal amount of the Subordinated Indebtedness or rate of interest (or cash pay rate of interest) on any of the Subordinated Indebtedness, (ii) change to an earlier date, any date upon which payments of principal or interest on the Subordinated Indebtedness are due or otherwise front load the amortization of any of the Subordinated Indebtedness, (iii) change in a manner adverse to any Obligor or add any event of default or add or make more restrictive any covenant with respect to the Subordinated Indebtedness, (iv) change the redemption, prepayment or put provisions of the Subordinated Indebtedness, (v) alter the subordination provisions with respect to the Subordinated Indebtedness, including, without limitation, subordinating the Subordinated Indebtedness to any other debt, (vi) shorten the maturity date of any of the Subordinated Indebtedness or otherwise alter the repayment terms of the Subordinated Indebtedness in a manner adverse to any Obligor, (vii) take any liens in any assets of any Obligor or any of its Subsidiaries or any other assets securing the Senior Indebtedness or (viii) obtain any guaranties or credit support from any Person which is an affiliate of any Obligor, or (ix) change or amend any other term of the Subordinated Indebtedness Documents if such change or amendment would increase the obligations of any Obligor or confer additional material rights on any

Subordinated Creditor or any other holder of the Subordinated Indebtedness in a manner adverse to any Obligor, Agent or Lenders.

(b) Until the Senior Indebtedness is Paid in Full, no Subordinated Creditor shall, without the prior written consent of Agent, take or continue any action, or exercise any rights, remedies or powers in respect of the Subordinated Indebtedness or any Subordinated Indebtedness Document, or exercise or continue to exercise any other right or remedy at law or in equity that such Subordinated Creditor might otherwise possess, to collect any amount due and payable in respect of any Subordinated Indebtedness, including, without limitation, the acceleration of the Subordinated Indebtedness, the commencement of any action to enforce payment or foreclosure on any lien or security interest, the filing of any petition in bankruptcy or the taking advantage of any other insolvency law of any jurisdiction (any of the foregoing, an “Enforcement Action”). If any Subordinated Creditor shall attempt to take any Enforcement Action or otherwise seek to collect or realize upon any of the Subordinated Indebtedness in violation of the terms hereof, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness may, by virtue of the terms hereof, restrain any such Enforcement Action or other action, either in its own name or in the name of the applicable Obligor.

(c) Until the Senior Indebtedness is Paid in Full, any Liens of Subordinated Creditors in the Collateral which may exist in breach of each Subordinated Creditor's agreement pursuant to subsection 2.7(a)(vii) or Section 18 of this Agreement shall be and hereby are subordinated for all purposes and in all respects to the Liens of Agent and Lenders in the Collateral, regardless of the time, manner or order of perfection of any such Liens. In the event that any Subordinated Creditor obtains any Liens in the Collateral in violation of subsection 2.7(a)(vii) or Section 18 of this Agreement, Subordinated Creditors (i) shall (or shall cause their agent to) promptly execute and deliver to Agent such termination statements and releases as Agent shall request to effect the release of the Liens of such Subordinated Creditor in such Collateral and (ii) shall be deemed to have authorized Agent to file any and all termination statements required by Agent in respect of such Liens. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Subordinated Creditor hereby irrevocably appoints Agent its attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Subordinated Creditor and in the name of such Subordinated Creditor or otherwise, to execute and deliver any document or instrument which such Subordinated Creditor may be required to deliver pursuant to this subsection 2.7(c).
