the Subordinated Obligations are expressly "subordinate and junior in right of
payment" (as that phrase is defined in paragraph 2(b)) to all Senior
Obligations.
(b) "Subordinate and junior in right of payment" means that:
(1) no part of the Subordinated Obligations shall have any
claim to the assets of the Borrower on a parity with or prior to the
claim of the Senior Obligations; and
(2) unless and until the Senior Obligations have been paid in
full and any commitment to make Advances under the Senior Credit
Agreement has been terminated, without the express prior written
consent of the Senior Lender, (A) the Subordinated Lender will not
take, demand or receive from the Borrower, and the Borrower will not
make, give or permit, directly or indirectly, by set-off, redemption,
purchase or in any other manner, any payment of or security for the
whole or any part of the Subordinated Obligations, including, without
limitation, any letter of credit or similar credit support facility to

Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower may make,
and the Subordinated Lender may receive, scheduled payments on account
of principal and interest on the Subordinated Note in accordance with
the terms thereof and (y) at any time, the Borrower may make, and the
Subordinated Lender may receive, payments on account of the principal

(c) Upon the termination of any Blockage Period or if any Payment Event
of Default has been cured or waived or shall have ceased to exist, the
Subordinated Lender's right to receive payments as provided in clause 2(b)(2)(A)
shall be reinstated, and the Borrower may resume making such payments to the
Subordinated Lender.
(d) No Event of Default which existed on the date any Blockage Notice
was given shall be the basis for giving any subsequent Blockage Notice, unless
such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived or otherwise ceased to
exist for a period of not less than 90 consecutive days after the date such
Blockage Notice was given.
(e) No more than one Blockage Notice may be given within any
consecutive 360-day period.

in full" and any other similar terms or phrases when used herein with respect to

funds, of all of the Senior Obligations.
(g) No Subordinated Lender shall take any Enforcement Action against
the Borrower or any property or asset of the Borrower at any time that such
Subordinated Lender is prohibited under Section 2(b)(2) above from taking,
demanding, or receiving payment of the Subordinated Obligations, except that the
provisions of this paragraph shall not be applicable for more than 180 days
(which need not be consecutive) during any 360-day period, and provided that
this paragraph shall not limit the operation of any other provision hereof (for
example, without limitation of the foregoing, if any Subordinated Lender should,
as a result of any Enforcement Action not prohibited by this paragraph, receive
a payment with respect to the Subordinated Obligations that it was prohibited
from receiving or retaining under another provision of this Subordination
Agreement, or that it was required to turn over to the Senior Lender under
another provision of this Subordination Agreement, nothing in this paragraph
shall limit the operation of such other provision hereof).
3. Additional Provisions Concerning Subordination. (a) The Subordinated
Lender and the Borrower agree that upon the occurrence of any Insolvency Event:
(1) all Senior Obligations shall be paid in full before any
payment or distribution is made with respect to the Subordinated
Obligations; and
(2) any payment or distribution of assets of the Borrower,
whether in cash, property or securities, to which the Subordinated
Lender would be entitled except for the provisions hereof, shall be
paid or delivered by the Borrower, or any receiver, trustee in
bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, disbursing agent or other Person
making such payment or distribution, directly to the Senior Lender, for
the account of the Senior Lender, to the
5
6
extent necessary to pay in full all Senior Obligations, before any
payment or distribution shall be made to the Subordinated Lender.
(b) Upon the occurrence of any event or proceeding described in clause
(a) of the definition of "Insolvency Event" commenced by or against the
Borrower:
(1) the Subordinated Lender irrevocably authorizes and
empowers the Senior Lender (A) to demand, xxx for, collect and receive
every payment or distribution on account of the Subordinated
Obligations payable or deliverable in connection with such event or
proceeding and give acquittance therefor, and (B) to file claims and
proofs of claim in any statutory or non-statutory proceeding and take
such other actions, in its own name as Senior Lender or in the name of
the Subordinated Lender or otherwise, as the Senior Lender may deem
necessary or advisable for the enforcement of the provisions of this
Agreement; provided, however, that the foregoing authorization and
empowerment imposes no obligation on the Senior Lender to take any such
action;
(2) the Subordinated Lender shall take such action, duly and
promptly, as the Senior Lender may request from time to time (A) to
collect the Subordinated Obligations for the account of the Senior
Lender and (B) to file appropriate proofs of claim in respect of the
Subordinated Obligations; and
(3) the Subordinated Lender shall execute and deliver such
powers of attorney, assignments or proofs of claim or other instruments
as the Senior Lender may request to enable the Senior Lender to enforce
any and all claims in respect of the Subordinated Obligations and to
collect and receive any and all payments and distributions which may be
payable or deliverable at any time upon or in respect of the
Subordinated Obligations.
(c) If any payment or distribution, whether consisting of money,
property or securities, be collected or received by the Subordinated Lender in
respect of the Subordinated Obligations, except payments permitted to be made at
the time of payment as provided in paragraph 2(b), the Subordinated Lender
forthwith shall deliver the same to the Senior Lender for the account of the
Senior Lender, in the form received, duly indorsed to the Senior Lender, if
required, to be applied to the payment or prepayment of the Senior Obligations
until the Senior Obligations are paid in full. Until so delivered, such payment
or distribution shall be held in trust by the Subordinated Lender as the
property of the Senior Lender, segregated from other funds and property held by
the Subordinated Lender.
4. Subrogation. Subject to the payment in full of the Senior
Obligations, the Subordinated Lender shall be subrogated to the rights of the
Senior Lender to receive payments or distributions of assets of the Borrower in
respect of the Senior Obligations until the Senior Obligations shall be paid in
full. For the purposes of such subrogation, payments or distributions to the
Senior Lender, for the account of the Senior Lender, of any money, property or
securities to which the Subordinated Lender would be entitled except for the
provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed, as between the Borrower and its
creditors other than the Senior Lender and the
6
7
Subordinated Lender, to be a payment by the Borrower to or on account of
Subordinated Obligations, it being understood that the provisions of this
Agreement are, and are intended solely, for the purpose of defining the relative
rights of the Subordinated Lender, on the one hand, and the Senior Lender, on
the other hand.
5. Consent of Subordinated Lender. (a) The Subordinated Lender consents
that, without the necessity of any reservation of rights against the
Subordinated Lender, and without notice to or further assent by the Subordinated
Lender:
(1) any demand for payment of any Senior Obligations made by
the Senior Lender may be rescinded in whole or in part by the Senior
Lender, and any Senior Obligation may be continued, and the Senior
Obligations, or the liability of the Borrower or any guarantor or any
other party upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or
guarantee thereof or right of offset with respect thereto, or any
obligation or liability of the Borrower or any other party under the
Senior Credit Agreement or any other agreement, may, from time to time,
in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, modified, accelerated,
compromised, waived, surrendered, or released by the Senior Lender; and
(2) the Senior Credit Agreement, the Senior Notes and any
other Senior Loan Document may be amended, modified, supplemented or
terminated, in whole or in part, as the Senior Lender may deem
advisable from time to time, and any collateral security at any time
held by the Senior Lender for the payment of any of the Senior
Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released,
in each case all without notice to or further assent by the Subordinated Lender,
which will remain bound under this Agreement, and all without impairing,
abridging, releasing or affecting the subordination provided for herein.
(b) The Subordinated Lender waives any and all notice of the creation,
renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Senior Obligations and notice of or
proof of reliance by the Senior Lender upon this Agreement. The Senior
Obligations, and any of them, shall be deemed conclusively to have been created,
contracted or incurred in reliance upon this Agreement, and all dealings between
the Borrower and the Senior Lender shall be deemed to have been consummated in
reliance upon this Agreement. The Subordinated Lender acknowledges and agrees
that the Senior Lender has relied upon the subordination provided for herein in
connection with the Senior Credit Agreement and in continuing to make funds
available to the Borrower thereunder. The Subordinated Lender waives notice of
or proof of reliance on this Agreement and protest, demand for payment and
notice of default.
6. Negative Covenants of the Subordinated Lender. So long as any of the
Senior Obligations shall remain outstanding, the Subordinated Lender shall not,
without the prior written consent of the Senior Lender:
(a) sell, assign, or otherwise transfer, in whole or in part, the
Subordinated Obligations or any interest therein to any other Person (a
"Transferee") or create, incur or suffer to exist any
7
8
security interest, lien, charge or other encumbrance whatsoever upon the
Subordinated Obligations in favor of any Transferee unless (1) such action is
made expressly subject to this Agreement and (2) the Transferee expressly
acknowledges to the Senior Lender, by a writing in form and substance
satisfactory to the Senior Lender, the subordination provided for herein and
agrees to be bound by all of the terms hereof; or
(b) permit any of the Subordinated Loan Documents to be amended,
modified or otherwise supplemented.
7. Senior Obligations Unconditional. All rights and interests of the
Senior Lender hereunder, and all agreements and obligations of the Subordinated

Documents;
(b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any
other term of, all or any of the Senior Obligations, or any amendment or waiver
or other modification, whether by course of conduct or otherwise, of the terms
of the Senior Credit Agreement or any other Senior Loan Document;
(c) any exchange, release or nonperfection of any security interest in
any Collateral, or any release, amendment, waiver or other modification, whether
in writing or by course of conduct or otherwise, of all or any of the Senior
Obligations or any guarantee thereof; or
(d) any other circumstances which otherwise might constitute a defense
available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower in respect of the Senior
Obligations, or of either the Subordinated Lender or the Borrower in respect of
this Agreement.

and warrants to the Senior Lender that:

the Subordinated Lender.

financial or other condition of obligors under any instruments of guarantee with
respect to the Senior Obligations, (b) the enforceability, validity, value or
collectibility of the Senior Obligations or the Subordinated Obligations, any
collateral therefor, or any guarantee or security which may have been granted in

(c) the Borrower's title or right to transfer any collateral or security.

liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
