The Collateral Trustee and its successors and assigns under this Agreement will hold the Trust Estate in trust for the benefit solely and exclusively of all current and future Parity Lien Secured Parties as security for the payment of all present and future Parity Lien Obligations.

(4) the Issuer delivers to the Collateral Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that all Parity Liens of the Collateral Trustee have been released in compliance with all applicable provisions of the Parity Lien Documents and that the Grantors are not required by any Parity Lien Document to grant any Parity Lien upon any property,

then the Trust Estate arising hereunder will terminate, except that all provisions set forth in Sections 7.8 and 7.9 that are enforceable by the Collateral Trustee or any of its co-trustees or agents (whether in an individual or representative capacity) will remain enforceable in accordance with their terms.

The parties further declare and covenant that the Trust Estate will be held and distributed by the Collateral Trustee subject to the further agreements herein.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Collateral Trustee will not commence any exercise of remedies or any foreclosure actions or otherwise take any action or proceeding against any of the Collateral (other than actions as necessary to prove, protect or preserve the Liens securing the Parity Lien Obligations) unless and until it shall have been directed in writing by an Act of Required Secured Parties and then only in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement.

(d) The Collateral Trustee shall act or decline to act in connection with any enforcement of Liens as provided in Section 3.3.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, neither the Issuer nor any of its Affiliates may serve as Collateral Trustee.

Section 3.2 Release or Subordination of Liens. The Collateral Trustee will not release or subordinate any Lien of the Collateral Trustee or consent to the release or subordination of any Lien of the Collateral Trustee, except:

(a) as directed by an Act of Required Secured Parties accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate to the effect that the release or subordination was permitted by each applicable Parity Lien Document;

(b) as required by Article 4;

(c) as ordered pursuant to applicable law under a final and non-appealable order or judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction; or

(d) for the subordination of the Trust Estate and the Parity Liens to the extent required by the Intercreditor Agreement.

Section 3.3 Enforcement of Liens.

Subject to the terms set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement, if the Collateral Trustee at any time receives written notice that any event has occurred that constitutes a default under any Parity Lien Document entitling the Collateral Trustee to foreclose upon, collect or otherwise enforce its Liens under the Parity Lien Security Documents, the Collateral Trustee will promptly deliver written notice thereof to each other Parity Lien Representative. Thereafter, the Collateral Trustee may await direction by an Act of Required Secured Parties and, subject to the provisions set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement, will act, or decline to act, as directed by an Act of Required Secured Parties, in the exercise and enforcement of the Collateral Trustee’s interests, rights, powers and remedies in respect of the Collateral or under the Parity Lien Security Documents or applicable law and, following the initiation of such exercise of remedies and, subject to the provisions set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement, the Collateral Trustee will act, or decline to act, with respect to the manner of such exercise of remedies as directed by an Act of Required Secured Parties. Unless it has been directed to the contrary by an Act of Required Secured Parties, the Collateral Trustee in any event may (but will not be obligated to) take or refrain from taking such action with respect to any default under any Parity Lien Document as it may deem advisable and in the best interest of the Parity Lien Secured Parties.

Section 3.4 Application of Proceeds.

(a) If any Collateral is sold or otherwise realized upon by the Collateral Trustee in connection with any collection, sale, foreclosure or other enforcement of Liens granted to the Collateral Trustee in the Parity Lien Security Documents, subject to the provisions set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement, the proceeds received by the Collateral Trustee from such collection, sale, foreclosure or other enforcement and the proceeds of any title or other insurance policy received by the Collateral Trustee pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement will be distributed by the Collateral Trustee in the following order of application:

FIRST, to the payment of all amounts payable under this Agreement on account of the Collateral Trustee’s fees and any reasonable legal fees, costs and expenses or other liabilities of any kind incurred by the Collateral Trustee, each Parity Lien Representative

or any co-trustee or agent of the Collateral Trustee in connection with any Parity Lien Security Document (including, but not limited to, indemnification obligations that are then due and payable);

SECOND, to the repayment of obligations, other than the Parity Lien Obligations, secured by a Lien that is permitted under the Parity Lien Documents on the Collateral sold or realized upon to the extent that such other Lien has priority over the Parity Liens but only if such obligation is discharged (in whole or in part) in connection with such sale;

THIRD, to the respective Parity Lien Representatives on a pro rata basis for each Series of Parity Lien Debt that are secured by such Collateral for application to the payment of all outstanding Parity Lien Debt and any other Parity Lien Obligations that are so secured and then due and payable (for application in such order as may be provided in the Parity Lien Documents applicable to the respective Parity Lien Obligations) in an amount sufficient to pay in full in cash all outstanding Parity Lien Debt and all other Parity Lien Obligations that are then due and payable and so secured (including, to the extent legally permitted, all interest and fees accrued thereon after the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding at the rate, including any applicable post-default rate, specified in the Parity Lien Documents, even if such interest is not enforceable, allowable or allowed as a claim in such proceeding, and including the discharge or cash collateralization (at the lower of (1) 105% of the aggregate undrawn amount and (2) the percentage of the aggregate undrawn amount required for release of Liens under the terms of the applicable Parity Lien Document) of all outstanding letters of credit, if any, constituting Parity Lien Debt); and

FOURTH, any surplus remaining after the payment in full in cash of amounts described in the preceding clauses will be paid to the Issuer or the applicable Guarantor, as the case may be, its successors or assigns, or to such other Persons as may be entitled to such amounts under applicable law or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

(b) This Section 3.4 is intended for the benefit of, and will be enforceable as a third party beneficiary by, each present and future holder of Parity Lien Obligations, each present and future Parity Lien Representative and the Collateral Trustee as holder of Parity Liens. The Parity Lien Representative of each future Series of Parity Lien Debt will be required to deliver a Lien Sharing and Priority Confirmation to the Collateral Trustee and each other Parity Lien Representative at the time of incurrence of such Series of Parity Lien Debt.

(c) In connection with the application of proceeds pursuant to Section 3.4(a), except as otherwise directed by an Act of Required Secured Parties, the Collateral Trustee may sell any non-cash proceeds for cash prior to the application of the proceeds thereof.

Section 3.5 Powers of the Collateral Trustee.

(a) The Collateral Trustee is irrevocably authorized and empowered to enter into and perform its obligations and protect, perfect, exercise and enforce its interest, rights, powers and remedies under the Parity Lien Security Documents and applicable law and in equity and to act

as set forth in this Article 3 or, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, as requested in any lawful directions given to it from time to time in respect of any matter by an Act of Required Secured Parties.

(b) No Parity Lien Representative or Parity Lien Secured Party (other than the Collateral Trustee) will have any liability whatsoever for any act or omission of the Collateral Trustee.

Section 3.6 Documents and Communications. The Collateral Trustee will permit each Parity Lien Representative and each Parity Lien Secured Party upon reasonable written notice from time to time to inspect and copy, at the cost and expense of the party requesting such copies, any and all Parity Lien Security Documents and other documents, notices, certificates, instructions or communications received by the Collateral Trustee in its capacity as such.

Section 3.7 For Sole and Exclusive Benefit of the Parity Lien Secured Parties. The Collateral Trustee will accept, hold, administer and enforce all Liens on the Collateral at any time transferred or delivered to it and all other interests, rights, powers and remedies at any time granted to or enforceable by the Collateral Trustee and all other property of the Trust Estate solely and exclusively for the benefit of the present and future holders of present and future Parity Lien Obligations, and will distribute all proceeds received by it in realization thereon or from enforcement thereof solely and exclusively pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.4.

Section 3.8 Additional Parity Lien Debt.

(a) The Collateral Trustee will, as collateral trustee hereunder, perform its undertakings set forth in this Agreement with respect to any Parity Lien Debt that is issued or incurred after the date hereof if:

(1) such Parity Lien Debt is identified as Parity Lien Debt in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3.8(b); and

(2) unless such Funded Debt is issued under an existing Parity Lien Document for any Series of Parity Lien Debt whose Parity Lien Representative is already party to this Agreement, the designated Parity Lien Representative identified pursuant to Section 3.8(b) signs a Collateral Trust Joinder and delivers the same to the Collateral Trustee.

(b) The Issuer will be permitted to designate as Parity Lien Debt hereunder any Funded Debt that is incurred by the Issuer or any other Grantor after the date of this Agreement in accordance with the terms of all applicable Parity Lien Debt Documents. The Issuer may only effect such designation by delivering to the Collateral Trustee an Additional Parity Lien Debt Designation that:

(1) states that the Issuer or such other Grantor intends to incur additional Parity Lien Debt (“Additional Parity Lien Debt”) which will be (as specified in such Additional Parity Lien Debt Designation) Parity Lien Debt not prohibited by any Parity Lien Document to be incurred and secured with a Parity Lien equally and ratably with all previously existing and future Parity Lien Debt;

(2) specifies the name and address of the Parity Lien Representative for such Additional Parity Lien Debt for purposes of this Agreement including Section 7.6;

(3) states that the Issuer and each other Grantor has duly authorized, executed (if applicable) and recorded (or caused to be recorded) in each appropriate governmental office all relevant filings and recordations to ensure that the Additional Parity Lien Debt is secured by the Collateral in accordance with the Parity Lien Security Documents;

(4) attaches as Exhibit 1 to such Additional Parity Lien Debt Designation a Reaffirmation Agreement in substantially the form attached as Exhibit 1 to Exhibit A, which Reaffirmation Agreement has been duly executed by the Issuer and each other Grantor and Guarantor; and

(5) states that the Issuer has caused a copy of the Additional Parity Lien Debt Designation and the related Collateral Trust Joinder to be delivered to each then existing Parity Lien Representative.

Although the Issuer shall be required to deliver a copy of each Additional Parity Lien Debt Designation and each Collateral Trust Joinder to each then existing Parity Lien Representative, the failure to so deliver a copy of the Additional Parity Lien Debt Designation and/or Collateral Trust Joinder to any then existing Parity Lien Representative shall not affect the status of such debt as Additional Parity Lien Debt if the other requirements of this Section 3.8 are complied with. Each of the Collateral Trustee and any then existing Parity Lien Representative shall have the right to request that the Issuer provide a legal opinion of counsel as to the Additional Parity Lien Debt being secured by a valid and perfected security interest in the Collateral; provided, however, that such legal opinion or opinions need not address any collateral of a type or located in a jurisdiction not previously covered by any legal opinion delivered by or on behalf of the Issuer.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement will be construed to allow the Issuer or any other Grantor to incur additional Funded Debt or Liens if prohibited by the terms of any Parity Lien Documents.

(c) With respect to any Parity Lien Debt that is issued or incurred after the date hereof, the Issuer and each of the other Grantors agree to take such actions (if any) as may from time to time reasonably be requested by the Collateral Trustee, any Parity Lien Representative or any Act of Required Secured Parties, and enter into such technical amendments, modifications and/or supplements to the then existing Guarantees and Parity Lien Security Documents (or execute and deliver such additional Parity Lien Security Documents) as may from time to time be reasonably requested by such Persons (including as contemplated by clause (d) below), to ensure that the Additional Parity Lien Debt is secured by, and entitled to the benefits of, the relevant Parity Lien Security Documents, and each Parity Lien Secured Party (by its acceptance of the benefits hereof) hereby agrees to, and authorizes the Collateral Trustee to enter into, any such technical amendments, modifications and/or supplements (and additional Parity Lien Security Documents). The Issuer and each Grantor hereby further agree that, if there are any recording, filing or other similar fees payable in connection with any of the actions to be taken pursuant to this Section 3.8(c) or Section 3.8(d), all such amounts shall be paid by, and shall be for the account of, the Issuer and the respective Grantors, on a joint and several basis.

(d) Without limitation of the foregoing, to the extent required under any Parity Lien Document, the Issuer and each of the other Grantors agree to take the following actions with respect to any real property Collateral with respect to all Additional Parity Lien Debt:

(1) the Issuer and the other applicable Grantors shall enter into, and deliver to the Collateral Trustee a mortgage modification (each such modification, a “Modification”) or new mortgage or deed of trust with regard to each real property subject to a mortgage or deed of trust (each such mortgage or deed of trust a “Mortgage,” and each such property a “Mortgaged Property”), with such changes as may be required to account for local law matters, at the time of such incurrence, in proper form for recording in all applicable jurisdictions, in a form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Trustee, the Controlling Representative and the Issuer and such other Grantors are jointly and severally liable to pay all filing and recording fees and taxes, documentary stamp taxes and other taxes, charges and fees, if any, necessary for filing or recording in the recording office of each jurisdiction where such real property to be encumbered thereby is situated;

(2) the Issuer or the applicable Grantor will cause to be delivered a local counsel opinion with respect to each such Mortgaged Property in form and substance, and issued by law firms, in each case, reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Trustee and the Controlling Representative;

(3) the Issuer or the applicable Grantor will cause a title company reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Trustee and the Controlling Representative to have delivered to the Collateral Trustee a title insurance policy (or, as applicable, an endorsement to each title insurance policy previously delivered to the Collateral Trustee with respect to the Mortgage or Mortgages for such Parity Lien Obligations), date down(s) or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Trustee and the Controlling Representative (which may include a new title insurance policy) (each such delivery, a “Title Datedown Product”), in each case insuring that (i) the validity, enforceability and priority of the Liens of the applicable Mortgage(s) as security for the Parity Lien Obligations (including such Additional Parity Lien Debt) has not changed and, if a new Mortgage is entered into, that the Lien of such new Mortgage securing the Parity Lien Debt then being incurred shall be enforceable and have the same priority as any existing Mortgage securing then existing Parity Lien Obligations, as applicable, (ii) confirming and/or insuring that since the later of the original date of such title insurance product and the date of the Title Datedown Product delivered most recently prior to (and not in connection with) such Additional Parity Lien Debt, there has been no change in the condition of title and (iii) there are no intervening liens or encumbrances which may then or thereafter take priority over the Lien of the applicable Mortgage(s), in each case other than with respect to Liens permitted by each Parity Lien Document (without adding any additional exclusions or exceptions to coverage); and

(4) the Issuer or the applicable Grantor shall, upon the request of the Collateral Trustee or the Controlling Representative, deliver to the approved title company, the Collateral Trustee and/or all other relevant third parties all other items reasonably necessary to record each such Mortgage and Modification, to issue a Title Datedown Product and to create, perfect or preserve the validity, enforceability and priority of the Lien of the mortgage(s) as set forth above and contemplated hereby and by the Parity Lien Documents.

ARTICLE 4.

(4) as to a release of all or substantially all of the Collateral (other than pursuant to clause (1) above), if (A) consent to release of that Collateral has been given by the requisite percentage or number of holders of each Series of Parity Lien Debt at the

(8) as provided in the Intercreditor Agreement.

(b) The Collateral Trustee agrees for the benefit of the Issuer and the other Grantors that if the Collateral Trustee at any time receives:

(1) an Officers’ Certificate stating that (A) each signing officer has read Article 4 of this Agreement and understands the provisions and the definitions relating hereto, (B) such officer has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable him or her to express an informed opinion as to whether or not the conditions precedent in this Agreement and all other Parity Lien Documents, if any, relating to the release of the Collateral have been complied with and (C) in the opinion of such officer, such conditions precedent, if any, have been complied with;

(2) the proposed instrument or instruments releasing such Lien as to such property in recordable form, if applicable; and

(3) the written confirmation of each Parity Lien Representative (such confirmation to be given following receipt of, and based solely on, the Officers’ Certificate described in clause (1) above) that, in its view, such release is permitted by Section 4.1(a) and the respective Parity Lien Documents governing the Parity Lien Obligations the holders of which such Parity Lien Representative represents,

then the Collateral Trustee will execute (with such acknowledgements and/or notarizations as are required) and deliver such release to the Issuer or other applicable Grantor on or before the later of (x) the date specified in such request for such release and (y) the fifth Business Day after the date of receipt of the items required by this Section 4.1(b) by the Collateral Trustee.

(1) in the case of any release pursuant to clause (2) of Section 4.1(a), if the terms of any such sale, transfer or other disposition require the payment of the purchase price to be contemporaneous with the delivery of the applicable release, then, at the

written request of and at the expense of the Issuer or other applicable Grantor, the Collateral Trustee will either (A) be present at and deliver the release at the closing of such transaction or (B) deliver the release under customary escrow arrangements that permit such contemporaneous payment and delivery of the release; and

(2) at any time when a Parity Lien Debt Default has occurred and is continuing, within three Business Days of the receipt by it of any Act of Required Secured Parties pursuant to Section 4.1(a)(3), the Collateral Trustee will deliver a copy of such Act of Required Secured Parties to each Parity Lien Representative.

(d) Each Parity Lien Representative hereby agrees that:

(1) as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt of an Officers’ Certificate from the Issuer pursuant to Section 4.1(b)(1), it will, to the extent required by such Section, provide (A) the written confirmation required by Section 4.1(b)(3), (B) a written statement that such release is not permitted by Section 4.1(a) or (C) a written request for further information from the Issuer reasonably necessary to determine whether the proposed release is permitted by Section 4.1(a) and after receipt of such information such Parity Lien Representative will as soon as reasonably practicable either provide the written confirmation or statement required pursuant to clause (A) or (B), as applicable; and

(2) within three Business Days of the receipt by it of any notice from the Collateral Trustee pursuant to Section 4.1(c)(2), such Parity Lien Representative will deliver a copy of such notice to each registered holder of the Series of Parity Lien Debt for which it acts as Parity Lien Representative.

Section 4.2 Delivery of Copies to Parity Lien Representatives. The Issuer will deliver to each Parity Lien Representative a copy of each Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Collateral Trustee pursuant to Section 4.1(b), together with copies of all documents delivered to the Collateral Trustee with such Officers’ Certificate. The Parity Lien Representatives will not be obligated to take notice thereof or to act thereon, subject to Section 4.1(d).

Section 4.3 Collateral Trustee not Required to Serve, File or Record. The Collateral Trustee is not required to serve, file, register or record any instrument releasing or subordinating its Liens on any Collateral; provided, however, that if the Issuer or any other Grantor shall make a written demand for a termination statement under Section 9-513(c) of the UCC, the Collateral Trustee shall comply with the written request of such Issuer or Grantor to comply with the requirements of such UCC provision; provided, further, that the Collateral Trustee must first confirm with the Parity Lien Representatives that the requirements of such UCC provisions have been satisfied.

Section 4.4 Release of Liens in Respect of any Series of Parity Lien Debt.

(a) Release of Liens in Respect of the Notes. In addition to any release pursuant to Section 4.1 hereof, the Collateral Trustee’s Liens upon the Collateral will no longer secure the Notes outstanding under the Indenture or any other Obligations under the Indenture, and the right of the holders of the Notes and such Obligations to the benefits and proceeds of the Collateral Trustee’s Liens on the Collateral will terminate and be discharged:

(1) upon satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture as set forth under Section 12.01 of the Indenture;

(2) upon a Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance as set forth under, respectively, Section 8.02 or 8.03 of the Indenture;

(3) upon payment in full and discharge of all Notes outstanding under the Indenture and all Obligations that are outstanding, due and payable under the Indenture at the time the Notes are paid in full and discharged; or

(4) in whole or in part, with the consent of the holders of the requisite percentage of Notes in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.01 of the Indenture.

(b) Release of Liens in Respect of Series of Parity Lien Debt other than the Notes. In addition to any release pursuant to Section 4.1 hereof, as to any Series of Parity Lien Debt other than the Notes, the Collateral Trustee’s Lien will no longer secure such Series of Parity Lien Debt if such Parity Lien Debt has been paid in full in cash, all commitments to extend credit in respect of such Series of Parity Lien Debt have been terminated and all other Parity Lien Obligations related thereto that are outstanding and unpaid at the time such Series of Parity Lien Debt is paid are also paid in full in cash (other than any obligations for taxes, costs, indemnifications, reimbursements, damages and other liabilities in respect of which no claim or demand for payment has been made at such time).

(c) Release of Liens with respect to Affiliate Securities. In the event that Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act requires or would require the filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission of separate financial statements of any “affiliate” of the Issuer due to the fact that such affiliate’s “securities” secure any Series of Parity Lien Debt, then such “securities” shall automatically be deemed not to constitute security for any Series of Parity Lien Debt so affected (but shall continue to constitute collateral for any Series of Parity Lien Debt not having the above described effect). As used herein, “securities” and “affiliate” shall have the meaning set forth in Regulation S-X or such other law, rule or regulation, as applicable. In addition, any Series of Parity Lien Debt may disclaim the benefit of any Affiliate Securities in any Collateral Trust Joinder.

ARTICLE 5.

IMMUNITIES OF THE COLLATERAL TRUSTEE

Section 5.1 No Implied Duty. The Collateral Trustee will not have any fiduciary duties nor will it have responsibilities or obligations other than those expressly assumed by it in this Agreement and the other Parity Lien Security Documents. The Collateral Trustee will not be required to take any action that is contrary to applicable law or any provision of this Agreement or the other Parity Lien Security Documents.

Section 5.2 Appointment of Agents and Advisors. The Collateral Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents, attorneys, accountants, appraisers or other experts or advisors selected by it in good faith as it may reasonably require and will not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any of them.

The Collateral Trustee has accepted its appointment as Collateral Trustee hereunder and is bound by the Parity Lien Security Documents executed by the Collateral Trustee as of the date of this Agreement and, as directed by an Act of Required Secured Parties, the Collateral Trustee shall execute additional Parity Lien Security Documents delivered to it after the date of this Agreement; provided, however, that such additional Parity Lien Security Documents do not adversely affect the rights, privileges, benefits and immunities of the Collateral Trustee. The Collateral Trustee will not otherwise be bound by, or be held obligated by, the provisions of any credit agreement, indenture or other agreement governing Parity Lien Debt (other than this Agreement and the other Parity Lien Security Documents to which it is a party).

Section 5.4 Solicitation of Instructions.

(a) The Collateral Trustee may at any time solicit written confirmatory instructions, in the form of an Act of Required Secured Parties, an Officers’ Certificate or an order of a court of competent jurisdiction, as to any action that it may be requested or required to take, or that it may propose to take, in the performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement or the other Parity Lien Security Documents.

(b) No written direction given to the Collateral Trustee by an Act of Required Secured Parties that in the sole judgment of the Collateral Trustee imposes, purports to impose or might reasonably be expected to impose upon the Collateral Trustee any obligation or liability not set forth in or arising under this Agreement and the other Parity Lien Security Documents will be binding upon the Collateral Trustee unless the Collateral Trustee elects, at its sole option, to accept such direction.

Section 5.5 Limitation of Liability. The Collateral Trustee will not be responsible or liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it hereunder or under any other Parity Lien Security Document, except for its own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

Section 5.6 Documents in Satisfactory Form. The Collateral Trustee will be entitled to require that all agreements, certificates, opinions, instruments and other documents at any time submitted to it, including those expressly provided for in this Agreement, be delivered to it in a form and with substantive provisions reasonably satisfactory to it.

Section 5.7 Entitled to Rely. The Collateral Trustee may seek and rely upon, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, any judicial order or judgment, upon any advice, opinion or statement of legal counsel, independent consultants and other experts selected by it in good faith and upon any certification, instruction, notice or other writing delivered to it by the Issuer or any other Grantor in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement or delivered to it by any

Parity Lien Representative as to the Parity Lien Secured Parties for whom it acts, without being required to determine the authenticity thereof or the correctness of any fact stated therein or the propriety or validity of service thereof. The Collateral Trustee may act in reliance upon any instrument comporting with the provisions of this Agreement or any signature reasonably believed by it to be genuine and may assume that any Person purporting to give notice or receipt or advice or make any statement or execute any document in connection with the provisions hereof or the other Parity Lien Security Documents has been duly authorized to do so. To the extent an Officers’ Certificate or opinion of counsel is required or permitted under this Agreement to be delivered to the Collateral Trustee in respect of any matter, the Collateral Trustee may rely conclusively on such Officers’ Certificate or opinion of counsel as to such matter and such Officers’ Certificate or opinion of counsel shall be full warranty and protection to the Collateral Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Parity Lien Security Documents.

Section 5.8 Parity Lien Debt Default. The Collateral Trustee will not be required to inquire as to the occurrence or absence of any Parity Lien Debt Default and will not be affected by or required to act upon any notice or knowledge as to the occurrence of any Parity Lien Debt Default unless and until it is directed by an Act of Required Secured Parties.

Section 5.9 Actions by Collateral Trustee. As to any matter not expressly provided for by this Agreement or the other Parity Lien Security Documents, the Collateral Trustee will act or refrain from acting as directed by an Act of Required Secured Parties and will be fully protected if it does so, and any action taken, suffered or omitted pursuant to hereto or thereto shall be binding on the Parity Lien Secured Parties.

Section 5.10 Security or Indemnity in favor of the Collateral Trustee. The Collateral Trustee will not be required to advance or expend any funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of its duties or the exercise of its powers or rights hereunder unless it has been provided with security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against any and all liability or expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take such action.

Section 5.11 Rights of the Collateral Trustee. In the event of any conflict between any terms and provisions set forth in this Agreement and those set forth in any other Parity Lien Security Document, the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall supersede and control the terms and provisions of such other Parity Lien Security Document. In the event there is any bona fide, good faith disagreement between the other parties to this Agreement or any of the other Parity Lien Security Documents resulting in adverse claims being made in connection with Collateral held by the Collateral Trustee and the terms of this Agreement or any of the other Parity Lien Security Documents do not unambiguously mandate the action the Collateral Trustee is to take or not to take in connection therewith under the circumstances then existing, or the Collateral Trustee is in doubt as to what action it is required to take or not to take hereunder or under the other Parity Lien Security Documents, it will be entitled to refrain from taking any action (and will incur no liability for doing so) until directed otherwise in writing by a request signed jointly by the parties hereto entitled to give such direction or by order of a court of competent jurisdiction.

Section 5.12 Limitations on Duty of Collateral Trustee in Respect of Collateral.

(a) Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody of Collateral in its possession, the Collateral Trustee will have no duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income thereon or as to preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto and the Collateral Trustee will not be responsible for filing any financing or continuation statements or recording any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or times or otherwise perfecting or maintaining the perfection of any Liens on the Collateral; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral Trustee will execute, file or record UCC-3 continuation statements and other documents and instruments to preserve, protect or perfect the security interests granted to the Collateral Trustee (subject to the priorities set forth herein) if it shall receive a specific written request to execute, file or record the particular continuation statement or other specific document or instrument by any Parity Lien Representative. The Collateral Trustee shall deliver to each other Parity Lien Representative a copy of any such written request. The Collateral Trustee will be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property, and the Collateral Trustee will not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral by reason of the act or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency or other agent or bailee selected by the Collateral Trustee in good faith.

(b) Except as provided in paragraph 5.12(a), the Collateral Trustee will not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder, except to the extent such action or omission constitutes negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Collateral Trustee, for the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title of any Grantor to the Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral. The Collateral Trustee hereby disclaims any representation or warranty to the current and future holders of the Parity Lien Obligations concerning the perfection of the security interests granted to it or in the value of any Collateral.

Section 5.13 Assumption of Rights, Not Assumption of Duties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein:

(1) each of the parties thereto will remain liable under each of the Parity Lien Security Documents (other than this Agreement) to the extent set forth therein to perform all of their respective duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Agreement had not be executed;

(2) the exercise by the Collateral Trustee of any of its rights, remedies or powers hereunder will not release such parties from any of their respective duties or obligations under the other Parity Lien Security Documents; and

(3) the Collateral Trustee will not be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any of the parties to the Parity Lien Security Documents other than the Collateral Trustee.

Section 5.14 No Liability for Clean Up of Hazardous Materials. In the event that the Collateral Trustee is required to acquire title to an asset for any reason, or take any managerial action of any kind in regard thereto, in order to carry out any fiduciary or trust obligation for the benefit of another, which in the Collateral Trustee’s sole discretion may cause the Collateral Trustee to be considered an “owner or operator” under any environmental laws or otherwise cause the Collateral Trustee to incur, or be exposed to, any environmental liability or any liability under any other federal, state or local law, the Collateral Trustee reserves the right, instead of taking such action, either to resign as Collateral Trustee or to arrange for the transfer of the title or control of the asset to a court appointed receiver. The Collateral Trustee will not be liable to any Person for any environmental liability or any environmental claims or contribution actions under any federal, state or local law, rule or regulation by reason of the Collateral Trustee’s actions and conduct as authorized, empowered and directed hereunder or relating to any kind of discharge or release or threatened discharge or release of any hazardous materials into the environment.

ARTICLE 6.

RESIGNATION AND REMOVAL OF THE COLLATERAL TRUSTEE

Section 6.1 Resignation or Removal of Collateral Trustee. Subject to the appointment of a successor Collateral Trustee as provided in Section 6.2 and the acceptance of such appointment by the successor Collateral Trustee:

(a) the Collateral Trustee may resign at any time by giving not less than 30 days’ notice of resignation to each Parity Lien Representative and the Issuer; and

(b) the Collateral Trustee may be removed at any time, with or without cause, by an Act of Required Secured Parties.

Section 6.2 Appointment of Successor Collateral Trustee. Upon any such resignation or removal, a successor Collateral Trustee may be appointed by an Act of Required Secured Parties, subject to the consent of the Issuer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) so long as no default or event of default has occurred and is continuing under any Parity Lien Document. If no successor Collateral Trustee has been so appointed and accepted such appointment within 30 days after the predecessor Collateral Trustee gave notice of resignation or was removed, the retiring Collateral Trustee may (at the expense of the Issuer), at its option, appoint a successor Collateral Trustee, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction for appointment of a successor Collateral Trustee, which must be a bank or trust company:

(1) authorized to exercise corporate trust powers;

(2) having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000; and

(3) that is not the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer.

The Collateral Trustee will fulfill its obligations hereunder until a successor Collateral Trustee meeting the requirements of this Section 6.2 has accepted its appointment as Collateral Trustee and the provisions of Section 6.3 have been satisfied.

Section 6.3 Succession. When the Person so appointed as successor Collateral Trustee accepts such appointment:

(1) such Person will succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the predecessor Collateral Trustee, and the predecessor Collateral Trustee will be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder; and

(2) the predecessor Collateral Trustee will (at the expense of the Issuer) promptly transfer all Liens and collateral security and other property of the Trust Estate within its possession or control to the possession or control of the successor Collateral Trustee and will execute instruments and assignments as may be necessary or desirable or reasonably requested by the successor Collateral Trustee to transfer to the successor Collateral Trustee all Liens, interests, rights, powers and remedies of the predecessor Collateral Trustee in respect of the Security Documents or the Trust Estate.

Thereafter the predecessor Collateral Trustee will remain entitled to enforce the immunities granted to it in Article 5 and the provisions of Sections 7.8 and 7.9.

Section 6.4 Merger, Conversion or Consolidation of Collateral Trustee. Any Person into which the Collateral Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Collateral Trustee shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the corporate trust business of the Collateral Trustee shall be the successor of the Collateral Trustee pursuant to Section 6.3, provided that (i) without the execution or filing of any paper with any party hereto or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, except where an instrument of transfer or assignment is required by law to effect such succession, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, such Person satisfies the eligibility requirements specified in clauses (1) through (3) of Section 6.2 and (ii) to the extent necessary, the successor Collateral Trustee shall provide in writing to the Issuer and each Parity Lien Representative updated notice information as to such successor Collateral Trustee for the purposes of Section 7.6.

ARTICLE 7.

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

Section 7.1 Amendment.

(a) No amendment or supplement to the provisions of any Parity Lien Security Document will be effective without the approval of the Collateral Trustee acting as directed by an Act of Required Secured Parties, except that:

(1) any amendment or supplement that has the effect solely of:

(A) adding or maintaining Collateral, securing additional Parity Lien Obligations that are otherwise not prohibited by the terms of any Parity Lien Document to be secured by the Collateral or preserving, perfecting or establishing the Liens thereon or the rights of the Collateral Trustee therein; or

(B) providing for the assumption of the Issuer’s or any Guarantor’s obligations under any Parity Lien Document in the case of a merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer or such Guarantor to the extent not prohibited by the terms of the indenture governing the notes or any other Parity Lien Documents, as applicable;

will become effective when executed and delivered by the Issuer or any other applicable Grantor party thereto and the Collateral Trustee;

(2) no amendment or supplement that reduces, impairs or adversely affects the right of any Parity Lien Secured Party:

(A) to vote its outstanding Parity Lien Debt as to any matter described as subject to an Act of Required Secured Parties or direction by the Required Parity Lien Debtholders (or amends the provisions of this clause (2) or the definition of “Act of Required Secured Parties” or “Required Parity Lien Debtholders”);

(B) to share in the order of application described in Section 3.4 in the proceeds of enforcement of or realization on any Collateral that has not been released in accordance with the provisions described in Section 4.1 or 4.4;

(D) under this Section 7.1,

will become effective without the consent of the requisite percentage or number of holders of each Series of Parity Lien Debt so affected under the applicable Parity Lien Document; and

(3) no amendment or supplement that imposes any obligation upon the Collateral Trustee or any Parity Lien Representative or adversely affects the rights of the Collateral Trustee or any Parity Lien Representative, respectively, in its individual capacity as such will become effective without the consent of the Collateral Trustee or such Parity Lien Representative, respectively.

(b) The Collateral Trustee will not enter into any amendment or supplement unless it has received an Officers’ Certificate to the effect that such amendment or supplement will not result in a breach of any provision or covenant contained in any of the Parity Lien Documents. Prior to executing any amendment or supplement pursuant to this Section 7.1, the Collateral

Trustee will be entitled to receive an opinion of counsel of the Issuer to the effect that the execution of such document is authorized or permitted hereunder, and with respect to amendments adding Collateral, an opinion of counsel of the Issuer addressing customary creation and perfection, and if such additional Collateral consists of equity interests of any Person which equity interests constitute certificated securities, priority matters with respect to such additional Collateral (which opinion may be subject to customary assumptions and qualifications).

(c) The Parity Lien Secured Parties and the Parity Lien Representatives agree that each Parity Lien Security Document will include the following language:

“Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the lien and security interest granted to the Collateral Trustee pursuant to this [Agreement] and the exercise of any right or remedy by such Collateral Trustee hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Collateral Trust Agreement, dated as of August 1, 2013, among Alliance One International, Inc., the other Grantors from time to time party thereto, Law Debenture Trust Company of New York, as Trustee under the Indenture (as defined therein), and Law Debenture Trust Company of New York, as Collateral Trustee (as amended, supplemented, amended and restated or otherwise modified and in effect from time to time, the “Collateral Trust Agreement”). In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Collateral Trust Agreement and this [Agreement], the terms of the Collateral Trust Agreement will govern.”

; provided, however, that if the jurisdiction in which any such Parity Lien Document will be filed prohibits the inclusion of the language above or would prevent a document containing such language from being recorded, the Parity Lien Representatives agree, prior to such Parity Lien Document being entered into, to negotiate in good faith replacement language stating that the lien and security interest granted under such Parity Lien Document is subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 7.2 Voting. In connection with any matter under this Agreement requiring a vote of holders of Parity Lien Debt, each Series of Parity Lien Debt will cast its votes in accordance with the Parity Lien Documents governing such Series of Parity Lien Debt. The amount of Parity Lien Debt to be voted by a Series of Parity Lien Debt will equal (1) the aggregate principal amount of Parity Lien Debt held by such Series of Parity Lien Debt (including outstanding letters of credit whether or not then available or drawn), plus (2) other than in connection with an exercise of remedies, the aggregate unfunded commitments to extend credit which, when funded, would constitute Funded Debt of such Series of Parity Lien Debt. Following and in accordance with the outcome of the applicable vote under its Parity Lien Documents, the Parity Lien Representative of each Series of Parity Lien Debt will vote the total amount of Parity Lien Debt under that series as a block in respect of any vote under this Agreement.

Section 7.3 Further Assurances.

(a) The Issuer and each of the Guarantors will do or cause to be done all acts and things that may be required, or that the Collateral Trustee from time to time may reasonably request, to assure and confirm that the Collateral Trustee holds, for the benefit of the Parity Lien

Secured Parties, duly created and enforceable and perfected Liens upon the Collateral (including any property or assets that are acquired or otherwise become, or are required by any Parity Lien Document to become, Collateral after the date hereof), in each case, as contemplated by, and with the Lien priority required under, the Parity Lien Documents. Without limiting the foregoing, to the extent that any Lien on the Collateral cannot be perfected on or prior to the date of the indenture after the use of all commercially reasonable efforts, the Issuer and each of the Guarantors will use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to do or cause to be done all acts and things that may be required, including obtaining any required consents from third parties, to have all security interests in the Collateral duly created and enforceable and perfected, to the extent required by the Parity Lien Security Documents, and obtain title insurance promptly following the date of the Indenture, but in no event later than 60 days thereafter.

(b) Upon the reasonable request of the Collateral Trustee or any Parity Lien Representative at any time and from time to time, the Company and each of the Guarantors will promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver such Parity Lien Security Documents, instruments, certificates, notices and other documents, and take such other actions as shall be reasonably required, or that the Collateral Trustee may reasonably request, to create, perfect, protect, assure or enforce the Liens and benefits intended to be conferred, in each case as contemplated by the Parity Lien Documents for the benefit of the Parity Lien Secured Parties.

Section 7.4 Successors and Assigns.

(a) Except as provided in Section 5.2, the Collateral Trustee may not, in its capacity as such, delegate any of its duties or assign any of its rights hereunder, and any attempted delegation or assignment of any such duties or rights will be null and void. All obligations of the Collateral Trustee hereunder will inure to the sole and exclusive benefit of, and be enforceable by, each present and future holder of Parity Lien Obligations and each present and future Parity Lien Representative, each of whom will be entitled to enforce this Agreement as a third-party beneficiary hereof, and all of their respective successors and assigns.

(b) Neither the Issuer nor any other Grantor may delegate any of its duties or assign any of its rights hereunder, and any attempted delegation or assignment of any such duties or rights will be null and void. All obligations of the Issuer and the other Grantors hereunder will inure to the sole and exclusive benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Collateral Trustee, each present and future holder of Parity Lien Obligations and each present and future Parity Lien Representative, each of whom will be entitled to enforce this Agreement as a third-party beneficiary hereof, and all of their respective successors and assigns.

Section 7.5 Delay and Waiver. No failure to exercise, no course of dealing with respect to the exercise of, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy arising under this Agreement or any of the other Parity Lien Security Documents will impair any such right, power or remedy or operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy will preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The remedies herein are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

(b) All amounts due under this Section 7.9 will be payable upon demand.

(c) To the extent that the undertakings to defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in Section 7.9(a) may be unenforceable in whole or in part because they violate any law or public policy, each of the Grantors will contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by Indemnitees or any of them.

(d) No Grantor will ever assert any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for any lost profits or special, indirect or consequential damages or (to the fullest extent a claim for punitive damages may lawfully be waived) any punitive damages arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any other Parity Lien Document or any agreement or instrument or transaction contemplated hereby or relating in any respect to any Indemnified Liability, and each of the Grantors hereby forever waives, releases and agrees not to xxx upon any claim for any such lost profits or special, indirect, consequential or (to the fullest extent lawful) punitive damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

The parties hereto shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace any invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

Section 7.11 Section Headings. The section headings and Table of Contents used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction hereof or be taken into consideration in the interpretation hereof.

Section 7.14 Consent to Jurisdiction. All judicial proceedings brought against any party hereto arising out of or relating to this Agreement may be brought in any state or federal court of competent jurisdiction in the State, County and City of New York.

(5) agrees that each party hereto retains the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or to bring proceedings against any party in the courts of any other jurisdiction.

Section 7.15 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER PARITY LIEN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, BREACH OF DUTY, COMMON LAW, STATUTE OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE

Section 7.16 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including by facsimile or other electronic imaging means), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission (e.g. “pdf” or “tif” format) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof.

Section 7.17 Grantors and Additional Grantors. The Issuer represents and warrants that each Person who is a Grantor on the date hereof has duly executed this Agreement. The Issuer will cause each Person that hereafter becomes a Grantor or is required by any Parity Lien Document to become a party to this Agreement to become a party to this Agreement, for all purposes of this Agreement, by causing such Person to execute and deliver to the Collateral Trustee a Collateral Trust Joinder, whereupon such Person will be bound by the terms hereof to the same extent as if it had executed and delivered this Agreement as of the date hereof. The Issuer shall promptly provide each Parity Lien Representative with a copy of each Collateral Trust Joinder executed and delivered pursuant to this Section 7.17; provided, however, that the failure to so deliver a copy of the Collateral Trust Joinder to any then existing Parity Lien Representative shall not affect the inclusion of such Person as a Grantor if the other requirements of this Section 7.17 are complied with.

Section 7.18 Insolvency. This Agreement will be applicable both before and after the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding by or against any Grantor. The relative rights, as provided for in this Agreement, will continue after the commencement of any such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding on the same basis as prior to the date of the commencement of any such case, as provided in this Agreement.
