Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) except with respect to the Backstop Lenders, each Consenting Lender may, in its sole discretion, elect at the time of such Lender’s execution and delivery of this Support Agreement or Lender Joinder to exchange a portion of its Loans to Second Lien Term Loans in the amount set forth on Schedule 2 hereto or the schedule to such Consenting Lender's Lender Joinder, in each case, such Consenting Lender's percentage interest in the Second Lien Term Loans shall not exceed such Consenting Lender's percentage interest, determined as of the date of its election, in the aggregate outstanding Loans under the Credit Agreement (with respect to each Consenting Lender, its “Maximum Exchange Percentage”, and the aggregate of all Consenting Lender Maximum Exchange Percentages (other than those of the Backstop Lenders) being the “Consenting Lender Second Lien Allocation”), (y) the Initial Backstop Lenders may satisfy, in part, their commitments to exchange their Claims into Second Lien Term Loans hereunder by acquiring Claims of other Lenders in accordance with Section 7.1 hereof and exchanging such acquired Claims in accordance herewith or in an aggregate amount of up to $10,000,000 in cash, which cash proceeds shall be applied as set forth in Exhibit B to the Term Sheet, and (z) the Company Parties agree that as of the closing date of the transactions contemplated hereby the Backstop Lenders’ actual aggregate allocation of Second Lien Term Loans shall be no less than 100% minus the Consenting Lender Second Lien Allocation except to the extent such amount would be in excess of the aggregate Backstop Lender commitments (provided that any such commitments shall be set forth solely in the Backstop Commitment Letter addressed to the Company referenced in Section 3(e) and nothing in this Support Agreement or the Schedules, Exhibits, or Annexes hereto shall constitute an express (or implied) commitment by any Backstop Lenders to exchange any loans or otherwise provide any financing to the Company Parties).

For the avoidance of doubt, each of the Parties also agrees, severally and not jointly, that, unless this Support Agreement is terminated in accordance with the terms hereof, it will not take any action (or refrain from taking an action) that would in any material respect interfere with, delay, or postpone the effectuation of the restructuring transactions contemplated by this Support Agreement and the Term Sheet and, if necessary, confirmation and consummation of the Plan and implementation of the restructuring transactions contemplated thereunder (unless such action is taken in response to an action taken by a Company Party or other entity not a party hereto that is inconsistent with the terms of this Support Agreement or, in relation to the Backstop Lenders, the Backstop Commitment Letter).

No later than 60 days after the Effective Date, the Company shall have entered into a commitment letter, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Company, providing for the Revolving Credit Facility (as defined in Exhibit A to the Term Sheet) with the terms set forth in Exhibit A to the Term Sheet (the “Revolver Commitment Letter”); provided that such 60 day period may be extended with the prior written consent of the

Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided further that notwithstanding the foregoing (i) if the Company has delivered the Prepackaged Alternative Notice, the Company shall have entered into the Commitment Letter on the earlier of (x) on or prior to the 60th day after the Effective Date (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may have granted an extension to) and (y) two (2) Business Days prior to the Petition Date and (ii) if the Company has not commenced the Chapter 11 Cases, the Company shall have entered into the Commitment Letter on the earlier of (x) on or prior to the 60th day after the Effective Date (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may have granted an extension to) and (y) two (2) Business Days prior to the closing of the transactions contemplated by this Support Agreement.

(b)

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (including any notice or cure periods set forth herein), if (i) the Company has not entered into the Commitment Letter in accordance with the immediately preceding paragraph or (ii) if the Company does not execute the Revolver Commitment Letter within three Business Days of its presentment to the Company by the financial institutions party thereto, this Support Agreement shall automatically terminate with respect to each of the Consenting Lenders and the Company Parties without further notice or action.

Section 5. Remedies.

It is understood and agreed by each of the Parties that any breach of this Support Agreement would give rise to irreparable harm for which money damages would not be an adequate remedy and accordingly the Parties agree that, in addition to any other remedies, the Consenting Lenders, on the one hand, and the Company Parties, on the other hand, shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief for any such breach. The Company Parties agree that for so long as the Administrative Agent and the Consenting Lenders have not taken any action to prejudice the enforceability of this Support Agreement (including without limitation, alleging in any pleading that this Support Agreement is unenforceable), and have taken such actions as are reasonably required or desirable for the enforcement hereof, then the Administrative Agent and the Consenting Lenders shall have no liability for damages hereunder in the event a court determines that this Support Agreement is not enforceable.

Section 6. Acknowledgement.

This Support Agreement and the Term Sheet and transactions contemplated herein and therein are the product of negotiations among the Parties, together with their respective representatives. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Support Agreement is not, and shall not be deemed to be, a solicitation of votes for the acceptance of the Plan or any plan of reorganization for the purposes of Sections 1125 and 1126 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise. The Company Parties will not solicit acceptances of the Plan from any Consenting Lender until such Consenting Lender has been provided with copies of a Disclosure Statement containing adequate information as required by Section 1125 of the Bankruptcy Code.

Section 7. Miscellaneous Terms.

7.1 Assignment; Transfer Restrictions.

(a)

Each Consenting Lender hereby agrees, severally and not jointly, for so long as this Support Agreement shall remain in effect as to it, not to sell, assign, transfer, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of, or grant, issue or sell any option, right to acquire, voting, participation or other interest in any Claim against the Company Parties, except to a party that (i) is a Consenting Lender; provided that any such Claims shall automatically be deemed to be subject to the terms of this Support Agreement; provided further that any election to exchange or not to exchange Loans made by the Consenting Lender transferor shall be binding upon the transferee, or (ii) executes and delivers a Lender Joinder (as defined in section 7.1(c)) to the Administrative Agent and the Company Parties at least five Business Days prior to the relevant transfer. With respect to any transfers effectuated in accordance with clause (ii) above, (x) such transferee shall be deemed to be a Consenting Lender for purposes of this Support Agreement, (y) the Company shall be deemed to have acknowledged such transfer and (z) any election to exchange or not to exchange Loans made by the Consenting Lender transferor shall be binding upon the transferee.

(b)	Any sale, transfer or assignment of any Claim that does not comply with the procedures set forth in subsection 7.1(a) shall be deemed void ab initio.

(c)

Any person that receives or acquires a portion of the Claims pursuant to a sale, assignment, transfer, hypothecation or other disposition of such Claims by a Consenting Lender hereby agrees to be bound by all of the terms of this Support Agreement (as the same may be hereafter amended, restated or otherwise modified from time to time) (a “Joining Lender Party”) by executing and delivering to counsel for the Company Parties and counsel for the Administrative Agent a joinder in the form of Exhibit B hereto (the “Lender Joinder”). The Joining Lender Party shall thereafter be deemed to be a “Consenting Lender” and a party for all purposes under this Support Agreement. Each Joining Lender Party shall indicate, on the appropriate schedule annexed to its Lender Joinder, (i) the number and amount of Loan claims held by such Consenting Lender, and (ii) the amount of its Loans that such Consenting Lender desires to convert into Second Lien Term Loans (except in the case of a Backstop Lender, it being understood that such Consenting Lender’s percentage interest in the Second Lien Term Loans shall not exceed such Consenting Lender’s Maximum Exchange Percentage).

(d)

With respect to the Claims held by the Joining Lender Party upon consummation of the sale, assignment, transfer, hypothecation or other disposition of such Claims, the Joining Lender Party hereby makes the representations and warranties of the Consenting Lenders set forth in Section 4 of this Support Agreement to the Company Parties.

(e)

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.1, any Consenting Lender may, at any time and without notice to or consent from any other party, pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its rights (including, without limitation, rights to payment of interest and repayment of principal) under the Credit Agreements in order to secure obligations of such Consenting Lender to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or grant of a security interest shall release such Consenting Lender from any of its obligations

hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or grantee for such Consenting Lender as a party hereto.

(f)	This Support Agreement shall in no way be construed to preclude any Consenting Lender from acquiring additional claims; provided that any such claims shall automatically be deemed to be “Claims” subject to the terms of this Support Agreement.

7.2 No Third Party Beneficiaries.

Unless expressly stated herein, this Support Agreement shall be solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Company Parties and each Consenting Lender, solely in its capacity as a lender to the Company. No other person or entity shall be a third party beneficiary. Unless otherwise expressly stated, all references herein to the Consenting Lenders shall be construed to include each entity that is also a Backstop Lender.

7.3 Entire Agreement.

This Support Agreement, including Schedule, Exhibits, Annexes, the Definitive Documentation and the commitment letters referenced in Section 3(d) and Section 4.7, constitutes the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Support Agreement, and supersedes all other prior negotiations, agreements, and understandings, whether written or oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Support Agreement; provided, however, that any confidentiality agreement executed by any Party shall survive this Support Agreement and shall continue in full force and effect, subject to the terms thereof, irrespective of the terms hereof.

7.4 Counterparts.

This Support Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Support Agreement by electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof.

7.5 Settlement Discussions.

This Support Agreement and the Term Sheet are part of a proposed settlement of disputes among the Parties hereto. Nothing herein shall be deemed to be an admission of any kind. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 408 and any applicable state rules of evidence, this Support Agreement and all negotiations relating thereto shall not be admissible into evidence in any proceeding other than a proceeding to enforce the terms of this Support Agreement.

7.6 Continued Banking Practices.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Consenting Lender and its affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of banking, investment banking, trust or other business with, or provide debt financing (including debtor in possession financing), equity capital or other services (including financial advisory services) to any Company Party or any affiliate of any Company Party or any other Person, including, but not limited to, any Person proposing or entering into a transaction related to or involving any Company Party or any affiliate thereof.

7.7 Reservation of Rights.

(a)

Except as expressly provided in this Support Agreement, nothing herein is intended to, does or shall be deemed in any manner to waive, limit, impair or restrict the ability of each of the Consenting Lenders to protect and preserve its rights, remedies and interests, including, but not limited to, all of their rights and remedies under the Credit Agreement, including any such rights and remedies relating to Defaults or other events that may have occurred prior to the execution of this Support Agreement, any and all of its claims and causes of action against any of the Company Parties, any liens or security interests it may have in any assets of any of the Company Parties or any third parties, or its full participation in the Chapter 11 Cases, if commenced. Nothing herein shall be deemed a commitment by any Lender (including, without limitation, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas and its affiliates) to provide financing under the Revolving Credit Facility (which commitment will be subject to the terms of the commitment letter related thereto) and nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the syndication efforts in connection therewith. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) if the Backstop Commitment Letter is terminated in accordance with its terms, or otherwise expires (x) each Backstop Lender may (with respect to itself) at any time thereafter terminate its obligations hereunder without any liability to the Company or any other person by written notice to the Company, the Initial Backstop Lenders and the Administrative Agent and (y) upon the Company’s, the Administrative Agent’s and the Initial Backstop Lenders’ receipt of written notice from the Required Consenting Lenders, this Support Agreement shall terminate with respect to all parties hereto; provided that such notice may not be given if the Backstop Commitment Letter is replaced with another commitment letter or if the failure to have such a commitment is otherwise cured, in each case on terms acceptable to the Administrative Agent and within 30 days of the termination or expiration of the Backstop Commitment Letter, and (ii) if the Revolver Commitment Letter is executed and delivered in connection with the Revolving Credit Facility pursuant to Section 4.7(a), and is thereafter terminated in accordance with its terms or otherwise expires, each Consenting Lender party to the Revolver Commitment Letter may (with respect to itself) at any time after the 21st day after the termination or expiration thereof terminate its obligations hereunder without any liability to the Company or any other person by written notice to the Company, the Initial Backstop Lenders and the Administrative Agent (as applicable) unless prior thereto the Administrative Agent shall have consented to an alternative revolving credit facility, which consent shall be in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion.

(b)

Without limiting subsection 7.7(a) in any way, if the transactions contemplated by this Support Agreement and in the Term Sheet are not consummated as provided herein, if a Termination Date occurs, or if this Support Agreement is otherwise terminated for any reason, the Administrative Agent, the Consenting Lenders and the Company Parties each fully reserve any and all of their respective rights, remedies and interests under the Credit Documents, applicable law and in equity; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent and each Consenting Lender agrees that neither the execution of this Support Agreement by the Company Parties nor the implementation of the transactions contemplated hereby shall constitute a Default or Event of Default under the Credit Agreement

or the other Credit Documents; provided further that the actual filing of the petitions for relief under the Bankruptcy Code shall be an immediate Event of Default in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

(c)

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Parties acknowledge that the support of any Consenting Lender contained in this Support Agreement relates solely to such Consenting Lender’s rights and obligations as a Consenting Lender under the Credit Agreement, and does not bind such Consenting Lender or its affiliates with respect to any other indebtedness owed by the Company or any of its subsidiaries and affiliates to such Consenting Lender or any affiliate of such Consenting Lender (for the avoidance of doubt, if the Consenting Lender is specified on the relevant signature page as a particular group or business within an entity, “Consenting Lender” shall mean such group or business and shall not mean the entity or its affiliates, or any other desk or business thereof, or any third party funds advised thereby). For purposes of this Support Agreement, (x) Claims of a Consenting Lender that are held by such Consenting Lender in a fiduciary or similar capacity and (y) Claims held by a Consenting Lender in its capacity as a broker, dealer or market maker of Loans under the Credit Agreement or any other claim against or security in the Company Parties (including any Loans or claims held in inventory with respect to such broker, dealer, or market-making activities, provided that the positions with respect to such Loans or claims are separately identified on the internal books and records of such Consenting Lender) shall not, in either case (x) or (y), be bound by or subject to this Support Agreement unless otherwise reflected on Schedule 2 hereto or on the schedule to the applicable Lender joinder.

7.8 Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a)	The Parties waive all rights to trial by jury in any jurisdiction in any action, suit, or proceeding brought to resolve any dispute between the Parties, whether sounding in contract, tort or otherwise.

(b)

This Support Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to any conflicts of law provision which would require the application of the law of any other jurisdiction. By its execution and delivery of this Support Agreement, each Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees for itself that, subject to the following sentence, any legal action, suit or proceeding against it with respect to any matter under or arising out of or in connection with this Support Agreement, any letter referenced in Section 3(e), or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment rendered in any such action, suit or proceeding, may be brought in any state or federal court of competent jurisdiction in New York County, State of New York, and by execution and delivery of this Support Agreement, each of the Parties hereby irrevocably accepts and submits itself to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of such court, generally and unconditionally, with respect to any such action, suit or proceedings.

(c)	Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Chapter 11 Cases are commenced, nothing in subsections 7.8(a)-(b) shall limit the authority of the Bankruptcy Court to hear any matter related to or arising out of this Support Agreement.

7.9 Successors.

This Support Agreement is intended to bind the Parties and inure to the benefit of the Consenting Lenders and each of the Company Parties and their respective successors, permitted assigns, heirs, executors, administrators and representatives; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 7.9 shall be deemed to permit any transfer, tender, vote or consent, of any claims other than in accordance with the terms of this Support Agreement.

7.10 Fiduciary Duties.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, nothing in this Support Agreement shall require the Company, any of the other Company Parties, or any of their respective directors or officers (in such person’s capacity as a director or officer) to take any action, or to refrain from taking any action, to the extent that taking such action or refraining from taking such action would be inconsistent with such person’s or entity’s fiduciary obligations under applicable law; provided that (x) to the extent any such action or the refraining from taking action reasonably likely would result in a breach of the Support Agreement, the Company shall give the Administrative Agent not less than three Business Days prior written notice and (y) if any such action or refraining from taking action results in a breach of the Support Agreement, the Consenting Lenders shall be entitled to exercise their termination rights hereunder to the extent otherwise provided herein.

7.11 Acknowledgment of Counsel.

Each of the Parties acknowledges that it has been represented by counsel (or had the opportunity to and waived its right to do so) in connection with this Support Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Support Agreement. Accordingly, any rule of law or any legal decision that would provide any Party with a defense to the enforcement of the terms of this Support Agreement against such Party based upon lack of legal counsel shall have no application and is expressly waived. The provisions of this Support Agreement shall be interpreted in a reasonable manner to effect the intent of the parties hereto. No Party shall have any term or provision construed against such Party solely by reason of such Party having drafted the same.

7.12 Amendments, Modifications, Waivers.

This Support Agreement (including, without limitation, the Term Sheet) and the Plan, if the Chapter 11 Cases are commenced, may only be modified, amended or supplemented, and any of the terms thereof may only be waived, by an agreement in writing signed by each of the Company Parties and the Required Consenting Lenders; provided that if the modification, amendment, supplement or waiver at issue adversely impacts the treatment or rights of (x) any Consenting Lender differently than other Consenting Lenders or (y) any Backstop Lender differently than other Consenting Lenders, the agreement in writing of such Consenting Lender or Backstop Lender (as the case may be) whose treatment or rights are adversely impacted in a different manner than other Consenting Lenders shall also be required for such modification, amendment, supplement, or waiver to be effective; provided further that no such modification, amendment, supplement or waiver shall, without the consent of each affected Consenting Lender (i) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Extended Loan, Revolving Loan or Second Lien Term Loan (each as defined in the Term Sheet), or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees thereon, or reduce the principal amount thereof or (ii) reduce the amount of, or extend the date of, any scheduled repayment of any of Extended Loans (collectively, the “Affected Lender Votes”). “Required Consenting Lenders” shall mean the Consenting Lenders

holding greater than 50% of the aggregate outstanding Loans held by all Consenting Lenders (it being agreed that neither this definition nor this Section 7.12 may be modified, amended or supplemented, or any of its terms waived, without the prior written consent of each Consenting Lender). Notwithstanding anything herein the contrary, each Consenting Lender agrees that, if the Chapter 11 Cases are commenced, the Company Parties may, following consultation with the Administrative Agent and the Initial Backstop Lenders, provide additional compensation to certain Lenders, including non-Consenting Lenders (but not to exceed 1.0% of the Loans held by such non-Consenting Lenders), and the Company may modify the Definitive Documentation, in each case, to aid in the confirmation process; provided that in no event shall any such modification adversely alter, or cause to be adversely altered, the economic terms or any other material terms of the Term Sheet or the transactions contemplated thereby in a manner that is adverse to the Lenders (it being understood and agreed that additional compensation that may be paid to some, but not all Lenders, including payments to non-Consenting Lenders as provided above shall not be deemed to be an adverse modification). If in connection with an Affected Lender Vote, the consent of the Required Consenting Lenders is obtained but the consent of one or more of such other affected Consenting Lenders whose consent is required is not otherwise obtained, then the Company shall have the right, so long as all affected Consenting Lenders whose individual consent is required are treated the same, to terminate such affected Consenting Lender from being a party hereto and from and after such time, such Consenting Lender shall no longer be deemed a “Consenting Lender” hereunder and shall not have the benefits and obligations set forth in this Support Agreement as of such date.

7.13 Severability of Provisions.

If any provision of this Support Agreement for any reason is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, that provision shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of any other provision of this Support Agreement.

7.14 Notices.

All notices and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given when: (a) delivered personally or by overnight courier to the following address of the other Party hereto; or (b) sent by fax to the following fax number of the other Party hereto with the confirmatory copy delivered by overnight courier to the address of such Party listed below.

SCHEDULE 2

CLAIMS

Consenting Lender	Amount of Claim under Credit Agreement*	Consenting Lender Election: Amount of Loans to be Exchanged for Second Lien Term Loans**
	$___________	$___________

* The amount to be included in the second column shall be the principal amount of Loans (Revolving Loans and Term Loans) and participation interests in issued and undrawn Letters of Credit held by such Consenting Lender as of the delivery of its signature page. The amount should not include unfunded Revolving Loan Commitments.

** Other than with respect to the Backstop Lenders, each Consenting Lender may, in its sole discretion, elect up to (but not more than) its Maximum Exchange Percentage of the Second Lien Term Loans. “Maximum Exchange Percentage” is defined in Section 1.1(c) of the Support Agreement and means a Lender’s percentage interest, determined as the date of its election to exchange, in the aggregate outstanding Loans (Revolving Loans and Term Loans) under the Existing Credit Agreement which aggregate principal amount is approximately $855,760,000.2

Accordingly, the determination of the dollar amount to be set forth in the third column by each Consenting Lender (other than the Backstop Lenders) that is making an election shall be determined by a percentage (not to exceed the Maximum Exchange Percentage of such Consenting Lender) multiplied by $166,250,000 (it being understood that if the actual Second Lien Term Loans issued on the closing date (prior to giving effect to any OID) are less than $166,250,000, then such Consenting Lender’s share of the Second Lien Term Loans shall be ratably reduced).

If a Consenting Lender does not desire to elect any Second Lien Term Loans, such Consenting Lender may leave the third column blank or insert $0.

2	Outstanding amount is as of July 28, 2011 and is subject to adjustment based on accrual of PIK interest (if any), prepayments and/or revolver draws.

1	Unless otherwise indicated, all capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings provided such terms in the Existing Credit Agreement.

Such Guaranties shall be in form and substance satisfactory to DBSI and shall also guarantee the Borrower’s and its subsidiaries’ obligations under interest rate swaps/foreign currency swaps or similar agreements or depository or cash management arrangements with a First Lien Lender or its affiliates (the “Other Secured Obligations”). All Guaranties shall be guarantees of payment and not of collection.
First Lien Agent and Collateral Agent:	Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas (“DBTCA”) shall act as the sole administrative agent and sole collateral agent (in such capacities, the “First Lien Agent”) for the First Lien Lenders (as defined below).
Lead Arranger and Bookrunner:	Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. (“DBSI”).

The Extended Loans shall mature on December 31, 2015 (the “Extended Loan Maturity Date”). The principal amount of the Extended Loans will amortize in quarterly installments in an aggregate annual amount equal to

1	Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Transaction Term Sheet or the Existing Credit Agreement, as applicable.

	A-2

	(x) $10,000,000 during the first four fiscal quarters starting with the fiscal quarter ended closest to June 30, 2012, (y) $12,000,000 during the next four fiscal quarters thereafter, and (z) $13,500,000 thereafter. All such quarterly amortization payments shall be due and payable on the 15th day of the last month of the applicable fiscal quarter. Any remaining outstanding principal amount of the Extended Loans shall be paid in full on the Extended Loan Maturity Date. If the transactions contemplated hereby are implemented out of court, the Loans of Non-Consenting Lenders (the “Non-Extended Loans”) shall mature on April 28, 2012 (the “Non-Extended Loan Maturity Date”). Amortization shall be made on the Non-Extended Loans that were Term Loans as set forth in the Existing Credit Agreement with the remaining balance of the principal amount of all Non-Extended Loans to be paid in full on the Non-Extended Loan Maturity Date. If the transactions described in these Term Sheets are implemented through a prepackaged plan of reorganization as described in “Condition Precedent and Implementation” below, no Non-Extended Loans shall be deemed outstanding on the closing of the transactions and all such Loans shall be part of the First Lien Credit Facility. Revolving Credit Facility. The existing Revolving Lender Commitments shall be terminated and $40,000,000 of new “super-priority” revolving commitments (the “Revolving Credit Facility”, together with the facility under which the Extended Loans are issued, the “First Lien Credit Facility”), shall be provided under the First Lien Credit Facility.2 The Revolving Credit Facility shall be available for new loans or new letters of credit (the “Revolving Loans” and the “Letters of Credit”, respectively), subject to a sublimit to be agreed. The letters of credit outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement shall be deemed made or issued, as applicable, under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility shall terminate on December 31, 2015 (the “Revolving Commitment Termination Date”).
Purpose:	The proceeds of loans under the Revolving Credit Facility will be used (a) to provide working capital from time to time for the Borrower and its subsidiaries and (b) for other general corporate purposes.
Interest Rates and Fees:	As set forth on Annex I hereto.

2 If the Borrower elects to effectuate the transactions contemplated hereby pursuant to a prepackaged plan of reorganization in accordance with the Support Agreement (as defined below), the new revolving loan facility shall be a superpriority priming debtor in possession financing facility (with availability limitations during the chapter 11 cases) which shall convert on emergence into the Revolving Credit Facility subject to the terms and conditions of the commitment letter related thereto.

	A-3

Security:	All amounts owing under the First Lien Credit Facility and (if applicable) the Other Secured Obligations (and all obligations under the Guaranties) will continue to be secured by a perfected first-priority security interest in all Xxx Collateral subject to exceptions satisfactory to DBTCA (the “First Priority Collateral”); provided, however, proceeds of the First Priority Collateral (and in the case of any distributions pursuant to bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceedings, whether or not representing the proceeds of the First Priority Collateral), shall be applied in the following order among the first priority tranches: first, to (x) the repayment in full of the obligations (or cash collateralization of Letters of Credit outstanding) under the Revolving Credit Facility and (y) the payment of all obligations owing in respect of interest rate swap agreements (“Hedge Agreements”) to be entered into between the Borrower and Lenders or their affiliates (ratably among the holders of such obligations); second, if the transactions contemplated hereby are implemented out of court, to the repayment in full of the Extended Loans; and third, to the repayment in full of the Non-Extended Loans. All documentation evidencing the security required pursuant to the preceding paragraph shall be in form and substance satisfactory to DBSI (including the “waterfall” and related provisions providing for the “super-priority” status of the obligations under Revolving Credit Facility and the Hedge Agreements), and shall effectively create first-priority security interests in the property purported to be covered thereby, with such exceptions as are reasonably acceptable to DBTCA.
Intercreditor Matters:	The relative rights and priorities in the First Priority Collateral and in the collateral provided to secure the Borrower’s second lien term loan facility (the “Second Lien Term Loan Facility”), and among the First Lien Lenders and the lenders under Second Lien Term Loan Facility shall be set forth in an intercreditor agreement substantially in the form attached to the Transaction Term Sheet as Exhibit D.
Mandatory Prepayments:	Mandatory prepayments of the Extended Loans and the Revolving Loans shall be required from (a) 100% of the Net Sale Proceeds from asset sales by the Borrower and its subsidiaries (subject to certain ordinary course and reinvestment exceptions to be mutually agreed upon), (b) 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds from issuances of debt by the Borrower and its subsidiaries (with appropriate exceptions, including proceeds from the issuance of second lien debt or subordinated debt that are to be utilized to reduce the outstanding balance of Second Lien Term Loans (defined below), plus related fees and expenses in connection with such refinancing, to be mutually agreed upon), (c) the Net Cash Proceeds from issuances of common equity by the Borrower and its subsidiaries (with appropriate exceptions to be mutually agreed upon), which shall be applied ratably to reduce the outstanding Extended Loans, Revolving Loans and, subject to the proviso below, the Second Lien Term Loans;

	A-4

	provided that in the event the Borrower does not apply such Net Cash Proceeds to reduce the Second Lien Term Loans, such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied ratably to reduce the outstanding Extended Loans and Revolving Loans; (d) the Net Cash Proceeds from issuances of preferred equity by the Borrower and its subsidiaries (with appropriate exceptions to be mutually agreed upon), the first $50,000,000 of which shall be applied ratably to reduce the outstanding Extended Loans and Revolving Loans and the balance of which may be applied to reduce the outstanding Second Lien Term Loans; provided that in the event the Borrower does not elect to apply the balance to reduce the Second Lien Term Loans, the balance shall be applied ratably to reduce the outstanding Extended Loans and Revolving Loans, and (e) 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds from insurance recovery and condemnation events of the Borrower and its subsidiaries (subject to certain reinvestment rights to be mutually agreed upon). After the Borrower has accumulated $20,000,000 (including, at the option of the Borrower, any replenishments thereof) from 100% of excess cash flow of the Borrower and its subsidiaries (excluding the Pulitzer Entities) (the “Xxx Reserve”), the Borrower shall be required to prepay 75% of excess cash flow of the Borrower and its subsidiaries (excluding the Pulitzer Entities) to be determined on a quarterly basis (with appropriate carry-forward credits for quarters lacking excess cash flow) to be applied as follows: (i) for the quarters ending June 30, 2011, September 30, 2011, December 31, 2011 and March 31, 2012, to retire the Non-Extended Loans (if the Amendment is implemented) from any excess cash flow during such quarters (which excess cash flow funds shall be deposited in a reserve account to fund scheduled amortization payments and payment at maturity of the Non-Extended Loans to the extent no Default or Event of Default exists under the First Lien Credit Facility at the time of such payment, provided, that if such a Default or Event of Default exists at the time of such payment, excess cash flow shall be applied in the manner set forth above in “Security”) and (ii) for the quarters ending closest to June 30, 2012 and thereafter, after (without duplication) deduction for the amount of the scheduled amortization payment for the applicable quarter, and actually applied to make such payment (the remaining amount after such deduction, the “Excess Cash Flow Payment Amount”), to prepay the Extended Loans and applied (A) to the extent the Excess Cash Flow Payment Amount is positive, to reduce the immediately succeeding amortization payment of the Extended Loans and (B) to the remaining amortization payments thereof in inverse order of maturity. Excess cash flow shall be defined substantially as set forth in the Credit Agreement (but excluding the Pulitzer Entities), provided, that the definition shall include certain dividend amounts and deduct certain permitted investment payments and the amount of carry-forward credits referenced above. For the avoidance of doubt, the Xxx Reserve and any Cash accumulated therein shall be

	A-5

	subject to the liens of the First Lien Agent pursuant a deposit account control agreement or other documents in form and substance satisfactory to the First Lien Agent. Mandatory repayments of Non-Extended Loans, the Extended Loans and the Revolving Loans made pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph above shall not reduce the commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility. In addition, if at any time the outstandings pursuant to the Revolving Credit Facility (including Letter of Credit outstandings) exceed the aggregate commitments with respect thereto, prepayments of Revolving Loans (and/or the cash collateralization of Letters of Credit) shall be required in an amount equal to such excess. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Default or Event of Default exists under the First Lien Credit Facility at the time of any mandatory repayment of Extended Loans and Revolving Loans as required above, the Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit shall first be repaid and/or cash collateralized, as applicable, in full in the amount otherwise required to be applied to the Extended Loans (without any accompanying permanent reduction of the commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility in connection therewith), with any excess to be applied as otherwise required above (without regard to this sentence).

Voluntary Prepayments and Reductions in Commitments:	The Borrower may repay the Non-Extended Loans and the Extended Loans at any time without premium or penalty (other than breakage costs, if applicable). Such prepayments shall be applied to the Extended Loans or the Non-Extended Loans, as directed by the Borrower, and pro rata with respect to such reduced loans and commitments, as applicable; provided that if any Default or Event of Default exists under the First Lien Credit Facility at the time of the proposed prepayment of the Non-Extended Loans and the Extended Loans as required by the foregoing, then the Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit shall first be repaid and/or cash collateralized, as applicable, in full before any such prepayment of the Non-Extended Loans and the Extended Loans shall be made (without any accompanying permanent reduction of the commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility in connection therewith). Voluntary reductions of the unutilized portion of the Revolving Credit Facility commitments will be permitted at any time, without premium or penalty, subject to reimbursement for all losses, expenses and liabilities of First Lien Lenders’ (other than lost profits) to the extent set forth in the Existing Credit Agreement. Such reductions will be pro rata with respect to the such prepaid commitments.

and Warranties:	Agreement, with such additions and modifications as may be agreed upon, including without limitation, to take into account the Second Lien Term Loan Facility.

Conditions Precedent to Each Borrowing under Revolving Credit Facility:	The making of each extension of credit under the Revolving Credit Facility, shall be conditioned upon the satisfaction of conditions substantially similar to those in Existing Credit Agreement.

The leverage and interest coverage ratios will be based upon Consolidated EBITDA, consolidated indebtedness and consolidated interest expense, as applicable, in each case substantially as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement, but calculated to exclude the Pulitzer Entities using substantially the same financial definitions (such excluded EBITDA being the “Excluded Pulitzer EBITDA”),3 except that (1) Consolidated EBITDA, Xxx EBITDA and Excluded Pulitzer EBITDA

3 If such definitions or the exclusions above are modified in the documentation for the Pulitzer Notes, the definitions and exclusions used in the financial covenants for the First Lien Credit Facility for the Pulitzer exclusion will be conformed to such modified definitions and the levels set forth in Annex III shall be adjusted to in a manner satisfactory to the Borrower and the First Lien Agent to achieve approximately the same variance from the Borrower’s projections as are applicable to the levels currently set forth on Annex III.

	A-7

	(as applicable) and Consolidated Interest Expense, Xxx Interest Expense and Pulitzer Interest Expense (as applicable) will be calculated to exclude (x) curtailment gains or losses relating to Pulitzer benefit plans, (y) write-offs of transaction expenses (beginning with the June 2011 quarter) and (z) bankruptcy-related professional fees and expenses payable by the Borrower or the Pulitzer Entities; and (2) Excluded Pulitzer EBITDA will be calculated to further exclude intercompany charges incurred by the Pulitzer Entities for fees, overhead and administrative expenses which are owing or paid to Xxx and its non-Pulitzer subsidiaries and allocated to the Pulitzer Entities in a manner consistent with past practices in an aggregate amount not to exceed $20 million in any fiscal year.

SUMMARY OF INDICATIVE TERMS

FOR THE SECOND LIEN TERM LOAN FACILITY

The Borrower1 is party to the Existing Credit Agreement, pursuant to which the lenders thereunder provided to the Borrower a first lien term loan facility and a revolving credit facility. The Borrower intends to enter into an agreement pursuant to which certain of the lenders under the Existing Credit Agreement will agree to exchange $166,250,000 of principal amount of outstanding term loans thereunder with the terms set forth below (the “Second Lien Term Loan Facility”).

Guarantees:	The Subsidiary Guarantors and Pulitzer and each of its direct and indirect subsidiaries that currently guarantees the obligations under the PD LLC Notes (each, a “Guarantor” and, collectively, the “Guarantors”) shall be required to provide an unconditional guaranty of all amounts owing under the Second Lien Credit Facility (the “Guaranties”). Such Guaranties shall be in form and substance satisfactory to the Second Lien Agent and the Second Lien Lenders. All Guaranties shall be guarantees of payment and not of collection.
Second Lien Agent and Collateral Agent:	A financial institution to be determined reasonably acceptable to the Second Lien Lenders shall act as the sole administrative agent to the Second Lien Lenders (in such capacity, the “Second Lien Agent”). A financial institution to be determined shall act as collateral agent for the Second Lien Lenders.

PD LLC intends to restructure the PD LLC Notes to increase the principal amount thereof, extend the maturity date with respect thereto and substitute Pulitzer as the issuer thereof by means of a refinancing of the PD LLC Notes in their entirety through the issuance by Pulitzer of new notes. The new notes issued by Pulitzer shall be referred to as the “Pulitzer Notes”.

In the event the PD LLC Notes are refinanced in a principal amount in excess of the current outstanding amount (up to $175,000,000), the excess proceeds will be used (a) first, to fund the costs and expenses incurred by Xxx and Pulitzer in connection with the implementation of the First Lien Credit Facility, the Second Lien Term Loans and the Pulitzer Notes, (b) second, to fund the Pulitzer Reserve, (c) third, if the transactions are implemented out of court, to reduce the Non-Extended Loans and (d) fourth, to reduce the Extended Loans.

Thereafter, any voluntary prepayments shall be accompanied by a prepayment penalty as follows: (1) a percentage, not to exceed 2.0% of the principal amount prepaid if such prepayment occurs on or after the second anniversary of the closing date but prior to the third anniversary of the closing date, and (2) a percentage not to exceed 1.0%, of the principal amount prepaid if such prepayment occurs on or after the third anniversary of the closing date.

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 each patent, trademark or copyright filing or other filings or recordings (other than UCC financing statements) filed or recorded by or on behalf of the Second Priority Representative shall, to the extent reasonably practicable, contain the following notation: “The lien created hereby on the property described herein is junior and subordinate to the lien on such property created by any agreement, filing or recording now or hereafter granted to Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as Collateral Agent (under the First Priority Documents), and its successors and assigns, in such property, in accordance with the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement dated as of ________, 2011 among DEUTSCHE BANK TRUST COMPANY AMERICAS, as First Priority Representative, DEUTSCHE BANK TRUST COMPANY AMERICAS, as Second Priority Representative, XXX ENTERPRISES, INCORPORATED, as Borrower, and the other Loan Parties referred to therein, as amended from time to time.”

(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 now or hereafter filed against real property in favor of or for the benefit of the Second Priority Representative and the other Second Priority Secured Parties 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 DEUTSCHE BANK TRUST COMPANY AMERICAS, as Agent (under the First Priority Agreements), and its successors and assigns, in such property, in accordance with the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement dated as of ___________ __, 2011 among DEUTSCHE BANK TRUST COMPANY AMERICAS, as First Priority Representative, DEUTSCHE BANK TRUST COMPANY AMERICAS, as Second Priority Representative, XXX ENTERPRISES, INCORPORATED, as Borrower, and the other Loan Parties referred to therein, as amended from time to time.”

(c) The First Priority Representative hereby acknowledges and agrees 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 the First Priority Representative 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 Representative (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 as soon as practicable after the occurrence of the events described in clauses (a), (b) and (c) of the definition of the First Priority Obligations Payment Date, the First Priority Representative shall (i) deliver, at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense, the Common Collateral in its possession or control together with any necessary endorsements (x) first, to the Second Priority Representative to the extent any Second Priority Obligations remain outstanding and (x) second, to the Borrower to the extent no First Priority Obligations or Second Priority Obligations remain outstanding, 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.

(d) To the extent that any deposit account or securities account of any Loan Party is subject to a control agreement in favor of the First Priority Representative, the First Priority Representative will act as bailee and agent for the Second Priority Representative solely to the extent required to perfect the Liens of the Second Priority Secured Parties in such deposit accounts and securities accounts and the cash and other assets therein. Nothing in the preceding sentence shall be construed to impose any duty on the First Priority Representative (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. Unless the Second Priority Liens on such First Priority Collateral shall have been or concurrently are released, after the First Priority Obligations Payment Date, the First Priority Representative shall cooperate with the Loan Parties and the Second Priority Representative (at the expense of the Loan Parties) in permitting control of any deposit accounts and securities accounts to be transferred to the Second Priority Representative (or for other arrangements with respect to each such deposit account and securities account reasonably satisfactory to the Second Priority Representative and in accordance with the Second Priority Documents to be made).

2.4 No New Liens. So long as the First Priority Obligations Payment Date has not occurred, whether or not an Insolvency Proceeding has been commenced by or against any Loan Party the parties hereto agree that (a) there shall be no Lien, and no Loan Party shall have any right to create any Lien, on any assets of any Loan Party securing any Second Priority Obligation if these same assets are not subject to, and do not become subject to, a Lien securing the First Priority Obligations and (b) and (ii) there shall be no Lien, and no Loan Party shall have any right to create any Lien, on any assets of any Loan Party securing any First Priority Obligation if these same assets are not subject to, and do not become subject to, a Lien securing the Second Priority Obligations. 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.

2.5 Prohibition on Contesting Liens. Each of the Second Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of each of the Second Priority Secured Parties, and the First Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of each of the First Priority Secured Parties, agrees that it will not (and hereby waives any right to) object to or contest or support any other Person in objecting to or contesting, in any proceeding (including without limitation, any Insolvency Proceeding), the validity, extent, perfection, priority or enforceability of a Lien held by or on behalf of any of the First Priority Secured Parties in the First Priority Collateral or by or on behalf of any of the Second Priority Secured Parties in the Second Priority Collateral, as the case may be, or the provisions of this Agreement; provided, that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of the First Priority Representative, any First Priority Secured Party, the Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Secured Party to enforce this Agreement, including the provisions of this Agreement relating to the priority of the Liens securing the First Priority Obligations as provided in Sections 2.1 and 3.1. 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.

SECTION 3. Enforcement Rights.

3.1 Exclusive Enforcement. Until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date has occurred, whether or not an Insolvency Proceeding has been commenced by or against any Loan Party, the First Priority Secured Parties shall have the exclusive right to take and continue any Enforcement Action with respect to the Common Collateral, without any consultation with or consent of any Second Priority Secured Party, but subject to the provisos set forth in Sections 3.2 and 5.1. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a default or an event of default under the First Priority Documents, the First Priority Representative 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.

3.2 Standstill and Waivers. The Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties, agrees that, until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date has occurred, subject to the proviso set forth in Section 5.1:

(a) they will not take or cause to be taken any Enforcement Action;

(b) they will not take or cause to be taken any action, the purpose or effect of which is to make any Lien in respect of any Second Priority Obligation pari passu with or senior to, or to give any Second Priority Secured Party any preference or priority relative to, the Liens with respect to the First Priority Obligations or the First Priority Secured Parties with respect to any of the Common Collateral;

(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 Representative 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 Representative 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; and

(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.

provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any Second Priority Secured Party may exercise its rights and remedies in respect of Common Collateral under the Second Priority Security Documents or applicable law after the passage of a period of 150 days (the “Standstill Period”) from the first date of delivery of a notice in writing to the First Priority Representative and the Borrower of any Second Priority Secured Party’s intention to exercise such rights and remedies in respect of Common Collateral, which notice may only be delivered following the occurrence of and during the continuance of an “Event of Default” 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 in good faith the exercise of any of its rights and remedies with respect to all or any material portion of the Common Collateral or (ii) an Insolvency Proceeding in respect of any Loan Party shall have been commenced; and provided, further, that in any Insolvency Proceeding commenced by or against any Loan Party, the Second Priority Representative and the Second Priority Secured Parties may take any action expressly permitted by Section 5.

Notwithstanding the foregoing contained in this Section 3.2, the Second Priority Representative and the Second Priority Secured Parties may:

(1)

take any action (not adverse to the priority status of the Liens on the Common Collateral, or the rights of any First Priority Representative, the First Priority Secured Parties to exercise remedies in respect thereof or the agreements set forth in Section 2) in order to create, perfect, preserve or protect its Lien on the Common Collateral;

(2)

file any necessary responsive or defensive pleadings in opposition to any motion, claim, adversary proceeding or other pleading made by any Person objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of the claims of the Second Priority Secured Parties, including any claims secured by the Common Collateral, if any, in each case in a manner that is not inconsistent with, or in contravention of, the express terms of this Agreement;

(3)

file any pleadings, objections, motions or agreements or take any positions that assert rights or interests available to unsecured creditors of the Loan Parties arising under either any Insolvency Proceeding or applicable non-bankruptcy law, in each case in a manner that is not inconsistent with, or in contravention of, the express terms of this Agreement;

(4)

vote on any plan of reorganization, file any proof of claim or statement of interest, make other filings and make any arguments and motions that are, in each case, in a manner that is not inconsistent with, or in contravention of, the express terms of this Agreement, with respect to the Second Priority Obligations and the Common Collateral;

(5)

exercise any of its rights or remedies with respect to the Common Collateral after the termination of the Standstill Period to the extent permitted by this Section 3.2;

(6)

present a cash or credit bid (in the case of any such credit bid, so long as such bid provides for payment in full of the First Priority Obligations and the occurrence of the events described in clauses (a), (b) and (c) of the definition of the First Priority

Obligations Payment Date) at any Section 363 hearing or with respect to any other Common Collateral disposition; and

(7)

bid for or purchase Common Collateral at any private or judicial foreclosure upon such Common Collateral initiated by the First Priority Representative and the First Priority Secured Parties.

3.3 Judgment Creditors. In the event that any Second Priority Secured Party becomes a judgment lien creditor as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor, such judgment lien shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement for all purposes (including in relation to the First Priority Liens and the First Priority Obligations) to the same extent as all other Liens securing the Second Priority Obligations are subject to the terms of this Agreement.

3.4 No Additional Rights For the Loan Parties Hereunder. Except as provided in Section 3.5, if any First Priority Secured Party or Second Priority Secured Party shall enforce its rights or remedies in violation of the terms of this Agreement, no Loan Party shall be entitled to use such violation as a defense to any action by any First Priority Secured Party or Second Priority Secured Party, nor to assert such violation as a counterclaim or basis for set off or recoupment against any First Priority Secured Party or Second Priority Secured Party.

3.5 Actions Upon Breach. (a) If any Second Priority Secured Party, contrary to this Agreement, commences or participates in any action or proceeding against any Loan Party or the Common Collateral, such Loan Party, with the prior written consent of the First Priority 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 such Loan Party.

(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 relevant Loan Party) or the relevant Loan Party 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 Loan Parties and/or the First Priority Secured Parties cannot demonstrate damage and/or be made whole by the awarding of damages.

3.6 Option to Purchase. (a) The First Priority Representative agrees that it will give the Second Priority Representative written notice (the “Enforcement Notice”) within five business days after commencing any Enforcement Action with respect to Common Collateral or the institution of any Insolvency Proceeding (which notice shall be effective for all Enforcement Actions taken after the date of such notice so long as the First Priority Representative is diligently pursuing in good faith the exercise of its default or enforcement rights or remedies against, or diligently attempting in good faith to vacate any stay of enforcement rights of its senior Liens on a material portion of the Common Collateral, including, without limitation, all Enforcement Actions identified in such notice). Following the commencement of an Enforcement Action or the institution of any Insolvency Proceeding by the First Priority Representative or any other First Priority Secured Party, any Second Priority Secured Party shall have the

option, by irrevocable written notice (the “Purchase Notice”) delivered by the Second Priority Representative to the First Priority Representative no later than five business days after receipt by the Second Priority Representative of the Enforcement Notice, to purchase all of the First Priority Obligations from the First Priority Secured Parties. If the Second Priority Representative so delivers the Purchase Notice, the First Priority Representative shall terminate any existing Enforcement Actions and shall not take any further Enforcement Actions, provided, that the Purchase (as defined below) shall have been consummated on the date specified in the Purchase Notice in accordance with this Section 3.6.

(b) On the date specified by the Second Priority Representative in the Purchase Notice (which shall be a business day not less than five business days, nor more than ten business days, after receipt by the First Priority Representative of the Purchase Notice), the First Priority Secured Parties shall, subject to any required approval of any court or other governmental authority then in effect, sell to the Second Priority Secured Parties electing to purchase pursuant to Section 3.6(a) (the “Purchasing Parties”), and the Purchasing Parties shall purchase (the “Purchase”) from the First Priority Secured Parties, the First Priority Obligations; provided, that the First Priority Obligations purchased shall not include any rights of First Priority Secured Parties with respect to indemnification and other obligations of the Loan Parties under the First Priority Documents that are expressly stated to survive the termination of the First Priority Documents (the “Surviving Obligations”).

(c) Without limiting the obligations of the Loan Parties under the First Priority Documents to the First Priority Secured Parties with respect to the Surviving Obligations (which shall not be transferred in connection with the Purchase), on the date of the Purchase, the Purchasing Parties shall (i) pay to the First Priority Secured Parties as the purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) therefor the full amount of all First Priority Obligations then outstanding and unpaid (including principal, interest (including, to the extent applicable, interest at the default rate), Post-Petition Interest, fees, breakage costs, attorneys’ fees and expenses, and, in the case of any Hedging Obligations, the amount that would be payable by the relevant Loan Party thereunder if it were to terminate such Hedging Obligations on the date of the Purchase or, if not terminated, an amount determined by the relevant First Priority Secured Party to be necessary to collateralize its credit risk arising out of such Hedging Obligations), (ii) furnish cash collateral (the “Cash Collateral”) to the First Priority Secured Parties in such amounts as the relevant First Priority Secured Parties determine is reasonably necessary to secure such First Priority Secured Parties in connection with any outstanding letters of credit (not to exceed 105% of the aggregate undrawn face amount of such letters of credit), (iii) agree to reimburse the First Priority Secured Parties for any loss, cost, damage or expense (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection with any fees, costs or expenses related to any checks or other payments provisionally credited to the First Priority Obligations and/or as to which the First Priority Secured Parties have not yet received final payment and (iv) agree, after written request from the First Priority Representative, to reimburse the First Priority Secured Parties in respect of indemnification obligations of the Loan Parties under the First Priority Documents as to matters or circumstances known to the Purchasing Parties at the time of the Purchase which could reasonably be expected to result in any loss, cost, damage or expense to any of the First Priority Secured Parties, provided that, in no event shall any Purchasing Party have any liability for such amounts in excess of proceeds of Common Collateral received by the Purchasing Parties.

(d) The Purchase Price and Cash Collateral shall be remitted by wire transfer in immediately available funds to such account of the First Priority Representative as it shall designate to the Purchasing Parties. The First Priority Representative shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, distribute the amounts received by it in respect of the Purchase Price to the First Priority Secured Parties in accordance with the First Priority Agreement. Interest shall be calculated to but excluding the day on which the Purchase occurs if the amounts so paid by the Purchasing Parties to the account designated by the First

Priority Representative are received in such account prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, and interest shall be calculated to and including such day if the amounts so paid by the Purchasing Parties to the account designated by the First Priority Representative are received in such account later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time.

(e) The Purchase shall be made without representation or warranty of any kind by the First Priority Secured Parties as to the First Priority Obligations, the Common Collateral or otherwise and without recourse to the First Priority Secured Parties, except that the First Priority Secured Parties shall represent and warrant: (i) the amount of the First Priority Obligations being purchased, (ii) that the First Priority Secured Parties own the First Priority Obligations free and clear of any liens or encumbrances and (iii) that the First Priority Secured Parties have the right to assign the First Priority Obligations and the assignment is duly authorized.

3.7 Rights as Unsecured Creditors. The Second Priority Representative and the Second Priority Secured Parties may exercise rights and remedies available to unsecured creditors against the Loan Parties that have granted Liens to secure the Second Priority Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Second Priority Documents and applicable law to the extent that such exercise is not inconsistent with, or in contravention of, the express terms of this Agreement; provided that in the event that any Second Priority Secured Party becomes an attachment or a judgment Lien creditor in respect of the Common Collateral as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor with respect to the Second Priority Obligations, such attachment or judgment Lien shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement for all purposes (including in relation to the First Priority Obligations) as the other Liens securing the Second Priority Obligations are subject to this Agreement.

3.8 Second Priority Interest, Principal, Etc. Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by the Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Secured Parties of payments (including in cash) of interest, principal and other amounts owed in respect of the Second Priority Obligations unless such receipt is (x) the direct or indirect result of the exercise by the Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Secured Parties of rights or remedies with respect to, or enforcement of, any Lien held by any of them, which exercise or enforcement is inconsistent with, or in contravention of, the express terms of this Agreement or (y) from the proceeds of an Enforcement Action required to be applied in accordance with Section 4.1 below. Nothing in this Agreement impairs or otherwise adversely affects any rights or remedies the First Priority Representative or the First Priority Secured Parties may have with respect to the Common Collateral.

3.9 Notice By First Priority Representative. First Priority Representative shall render to Second Priority Representative written notice of the occurrence of the events described in clauses (a), (b) and (c) of the definition of “First Priority Obligations Payment Date” as soon as practicable (and in any event within two business days) following the occurrence thereof, provided that such notice shall not be required in connection with the consummation of a Replacement First Priority Agreement.

4.1 Application of Proceeds; Turnover Provisions. All proceeds of Common Collateral (including without limitation any interest earned thereon) resulting from the sale, collection or other disposition of Common Collateral in connection with an Enforcement Action or the exercise by any First Priority Secured Party or any Second Priority Secured Party of any of its respective rights and remedies with respect to Common Collateral, whether or not pursuant to an Insolvency Proceeding, shall be

4.2 Releases of Second Priority Lien. (a) Upon any release, sale or disposition of Common Collateral (other than in connection with the occurrence of the First Priority Obligations Payment Date) permitted pursuant to the terms of the First Priority Documents that results in the release of the First Priority Lien on any Common Collateral (excluding any sale or other disposition that is not permitted by the Second Priority Agreement unless such sale or disposition is consummated in connection with an Enforcement Action or consummated after the institution of an Insolvency Proceeding), the Second Priority Lien on such Common Collateral (excluding any portion of the proceeds of such Common Collateral remaining after the First Priority Obligations Payment Date occurs) shall be automatically and unconditionally released with no further consent or action of any Person.

(b) The Second Priority Representative shall promptly execute and deliver such release documents and instruments and shall take such further actions as the First Priority Representative shall request to evidence any release of the Second Priority Lien described in paragraph (a).

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 Representative or the other First Priority Secured Parties for adequate protection or any adequate protection provided to the First Priority Representative or the other First Priority Secured Parties or (b) any objection by the First Priority Representative or any other First Priority Secured Parties to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on a claim of a lack of adequate protection or (c) the payment of interest, fees, expenses or other amounts to the First Priority Representative or any other First Priority Secured Party under Section 506(b) or 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise. In any Insolvency Proceeding, (i) if the First Priority Secured Parties (or any subset thereof) are granted adequate protection consisting of additional collateral (with replacement liens on such additional collateral) and superpriority claims in connection with any DIP Financing or use of cash collateral, 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 seek or accept adequate protection consisting solely of (w) 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 Liens securing the Second Priority Obligations are so subordinated to the First Priority Obligations under this Agreement, (x) superpriority claims junior in all

respects to the superpriority claims granted to the First Priority Secured Parties, (y) payment of the fees and expenses of the Second Priority Representative and the Second Priority Secured Parties, to the extent permitted in the Second Priority Documents (the adequate protection for the Second Priority Secured Parties described in clauses (w), (x), and (y), collectively, the “Second Priority Required Adequate Protection”) 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 in excess of $3,000,000 may with the consent of two-thirds in amount of the Second Priority Obligations 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 Representative 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 without the prior written consent of the First Priority Representative.

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 any Loan Party, 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 constructively 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 the First Priority Liens or the Second Priority Liens, 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 any Loan Party that is supported by the First Priority Secured Parties (or any right of the First Priority Secured Party to credit bid the First Priority Obligations in any such sale or disposition), 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 (and

otherwise) to any sale (and related matters) supported by the First Priority Secured Parties and to have released their Liens on such assets provided that their Liens attach to the proceeds of such assets (subject to the priorities set forth in this Agreement) and that the proceeds remaining after payment of related transaction costs and expenses are applied as a permanent reduction of the First Priority Obligations (with an applicable reduction in the Maximum First Priority Amount). In an Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise, neither the First Priority Representative nor any other First Priority Secured Party shall oppose any right of any Second Priority Secured Party to credit bid the Second Priority Obligations in any sale or disposition, provided that such bid provides for the payment in full of the First Priority Obligations and the occurrence of the events described in clauses (a), (b) and (c) of the definition of First Priority Obligations Payment Date.

5.7 Separate Grants of Security and Separate Classification. Each Secured Party and Loan 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 Loan Parties 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. Nothing contained herein shall prohibit or in any way limit the First Priority Representative, the Second Priority Representative, any First Priority Secured Party, or any Second Priority Secured Party from objecting, in any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise, to any action taken by any party not permitted hereunder.

5.9 Plans of Reorganization. Nothing in this Agreement shall impair the rights of any Second Priority Secured Party to propose, support, or vote in favor or against any plan of reorganization or similar plan or scheme in any Insolvency Proceeding, so long as such plan or scheme is not inconsistent with, or in contravention of, the express terms of this Agreement, provided that in the case of proposing such plan of reorganization or similar plan or scheme it shall, unless otherwise approved by the First Priority Representative, provide for payment in full of the First Priority Obligations and the occurrence of the events described in clauses (a), (b) and (c) of the definition of the First Priority Obligations Payment Date.

5.10 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) Each Loan Party 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 inconsistent with or in violation of this Agreement.

(b) Each Loan Party and the First Priority Representative, 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 inconsistent with or in violation of this Agreement.

(c) In the event the First Priority Representative 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, then such amendment, waiver or consent shall apply automatically to any comparable provision of the Comparable Second Priority Security Document without the consent of or action by any Second Priority Secured Party (with all such amendments, waivers and modifications subject to the terms hereof); provided that (other than with respect to amendments, modifications or waivers that secure additional extensions of credit and add additional secured creditors and do not violate the express provisions of the Second Priority Agreements), (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 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 prior written consent of the Second Priority Representative, (iii) no such amendment, waiver or consent with respect to any provision applicable to the Second Priority Representative under the Second Priority Documents shall be made without the prior written consent of the Second Priority Representative and (iv) notice of such amendment, waiver or consent shall be given to the Second Priority Representative no later than 15 days after its effectiveness, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the effectiveness and validity thereof.

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.

7.3 No Waivers. No right or benefit of any party hereunder shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of such party or any other party hereto or by any noncompliance by any Loan Party with the terms and conditions of any of the First Priority Documents or the Second Priority Documents.

(b) It is understood that the First Priority Representative and the Second Priority Representative, without the consent of any other First Priority Secured Party or Second Priority Secured Party, may in their discretion determine that a supplemental agreement (which make take the form of an amendment and restatement of this Agreement) is necessary or appropriate to facilitate having additional indebtedness or other obligations (“Additional Debt”) of any of the Loan Parties become First Priority Obligations or Second Priority Obligations, as the case may be, under this Agreement, which supplemental agreement shall specify whether such Additional Debt constitutes First Priority Obligations or Second Priority Obligations, provided, that such Additional Debt is permitted to be incurred by the First Priority Agreement and Second Priority Agreement then extant, and is permitted by said Agreements to be subject to the provisions of this Agreement as First Priority Obligations or Second Priority Obligations, as applicable.
