returns of any goods to the undersigned) against any
Junior Liabilities in existence at the date of this
Agreement that have accrued, are due and owing and

may resume making payments of interest during the
term of the Junior Liabilities in existence at the
date of this Agreement and principal at maturity

or hereafter may have in any or all of the property (whether real or personal)
of Borrower is and shall be subordinate to Lender's security interests and liens
in such property but only to the extent such security interests or liens arise

readjustment, reorganization or other similar proceedings relating to Borrower
or to its property (whether voluntary or involuntary, partial or complete, and
whether in bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership, or upon an assignment for the
benefit of creditors, or any other marshaling of Borrower's assets and
liabilities, or any sale of all or substantially all of Borrower's assets, or
otherwise), the Senior Liabilities shall first be paid in full before the
undersigned shall be entitled to receive and to retain any payment or
distribution in respect of the Junior Liabilities, and, in order to implement
the foregoing, (a) all payments and distributions of any kind or character in
respect of the Junior Liabilities to which the undersigned would be entitled if
the Junior Liabilities were not subordinated, pledged or assigned pursuant to
this Agreement shall be made directly to Lender; (b) the undersigned shall
promptly file a claim or claims, in the form required in such proceedings, for
the full outstanding amount of the Junior Liabilities, and shall cause said
claim or claims to be approved and all payments and other distributions in
respect thereof to be made directly to Lender; and (c) the undersigned hereby
irrevocably agrees that Lender may, at its sole discretion, in the name of the
undersigned or otherwise, demand, xxx for, collect, receive and give receipt for
any and all such payments or distributions, and file, prove and vote or consent
in any such proceedings with respect to, any and all claims of that undersigned
relating to the Junior Liabilities.
7. In the event that the undersigned receives any payment or other
distribution of any kind or character from Borrower or from any other source
whatsoever in respect of any of the Junior Liabilities, other than as expressly
permitted by the terms of this Agreement, such payment or other distribution
shall be received in trust for Lender and promptly turned over by the
undersigned to Lender. It is expressly understood and agreed that any interest
or principal payment with respect to the Junior Liabilities which was properly
made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement at the time of payment shall
not be held in trust for Lender and shall not be turned over by the undersigned
to Lender, notwithstanding any subsequent event including, without limitation,
any subsequent event described in clauses (a) through (e) of paragraph 5 of this
Agreement. Following the payment of all of the Senior Liabilities and
termination of all of Lender's obligations to provide any financing to Borrower,
including, but not limited to, under the Loan Agreement, the undersigned shall
be subrogated to Lender with respect to the amounts paid to Lender pursuant to
the immediately preceding sentence. The undersigned shall xxxx the undersigned's
books and records, and cause Borrower to xxxx its books and records, so as to
clearly indicate that the Junior Liabilities are subordinated in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement, and shall cause to be clearly inserted in any
promissory note or other instrument which at any time evidences any of the
Junior Liabilities a statement to the effect that the payment thereof is
subordinated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The undersigned
shall execute such further documents or instruments and take such further action
as Lender may reasonably from time to time request to carry out the intent of
this Agreement.
8. All payments and distributions received by Lender in respect of the
Junior Liabilities, to the extent received in or converted into cash, may be
applied by Lender first to the payment of any and all expenses (including
attorneys' fees and costs) paid or incurred by Lender in enforcing this
Agreement or in endeavoring to collect or realize upon any of the Junior
Liabilities or any security therefor, and any balance thereof shall, solely as
between the undersigned and Lender, be applied by Lender, in such order of
application as Lender may from time to time select, toward the payment of the
Senior Liabilities remaining unpaid; provided, however, as between Borrower and
its creditors, no such payments or distributions of any kind or character shall
be deemed to be payments or distributions in respect of the Senior Liabilities;
and, notwithstanding any such payments or distributions received by Lender in
respect of the Junior Liabilities and so applied by Lender toward the payment of
the Senior Liabilities, the undersigned shall be subrogated to the then existing
rights of Lender, if any, in respect of the Senior Liabilities only at such time
as this Agreement shall have been discontinued and Lender shall have received
payment of the full amount of the Senior Liabilities, as provided in paragraph
11 hereof.
9. The undersigned hereby waives (a) notice of acceptance by Lender of
this Agreement; (b) notice of the existence or creation or non-payment of all or
any of the Senior Liabilities; and (c) all diligence in collection or protection

therefor.
10. Without the Lender's consent, the undersigned may transfer or
assign any or all Junior Liabilities to any party who agrees to simultaneously
enter into a subordination agreement with the Lender substantially in the form
of this Agreement, with such changes as are necessary to reflect such transfer
or assignment. The undersigned shall not, without Lender's prior written
consent, (a) cancel, waive, forgive, or attempt to enforce or collect, or
subordinate to any Liabilities, other than the subordination pursuant to the
Senior Liabilities under this Agreement and the "Senior Liabilities" under a
separate Subordination Agreement - Xxxxxx Boats & Motors, Inc. Indebtedness to
Brunswick Corporation executed by the undersigned as of the date hereof, any
Junior Liabilities or any rights in respect thereof; provided, however, no
consent of Lender is needed to enforce or collect with respect to a default
arising from a breach of Section 8.10 of the Purchase Agreement or an event
described in Section 10.1(i) of the Purchase Agreement; (b) take any collateral
security for any Junior Liabilities; (c) convert any Junior Liabilities into
stock of Borrower except as set forth in the Convertible Note; (d) commence, or
join with any other creditor in commencing, any bankruptcy, reorganization or
insolvency proceedings with respect to Borrower; (e) declare a non-monetary
default (howsoever defined, but excluding a default arising from a breach of
Section 8.10 of the Purchase Agreement or an event described in Section 10.1(i)
of the Purchase Agreement) under any agreement, instrument or document
representing any of the Junior Liabilities, including but not limited to the
Subordinated Debt Documents; or (f) amend, modify, extend, renew, supplement,
replace, substitute and/or restate the Subordinated Debt Documents; provided,
however, that upon any default by Borrower on the payment of any of the interest
on the Junior Liabilities in existence on the date of this Agreement, or upon
the maturation of the principal amount of the Junior Liabilities in existence on
the date of this Agreement, the undersigned may pursue enforcement and
collection of the payment of such Junior Liabilities in existence on the date of
this Agreement either (I) at any time (and without giving effect to any
restrictions contained in the following clause (II) with respect to a breach of
Section 8.10 of the Purchase Agreement or an event described in Section 10.1(i)
of the Purchase Agreement; or (II) provided no Continuing of Default has
occurred or subsequently occurs prior to the point in time that the undersigned
collects any portion of such Junior Liabilities (unless with respect to each
specific Continuing Default referenced in paragraphs 5(i) and (ii) of this
Agreement, (A) the 30 day period in paragraph 5(i) of this Agreement and (B) the
90 day period in paragraph 5(ii) of this Agreement have expired and Lender has
not accelerated any or all of the Senior Liabilities), and further provided that
the repayment of such Junior Liabilities would not cause an Default to occur,
whether immediately or with the passing of time, the giving of notice, or both,
pursuant to the provisions of the Loan Agreement. If a Continuing Default should
occur prior to the point in time when the Junior Liabilities on the date of this
Agreement have been paid in full (unless with respect to each specific
Continuing Default referenced in paragraphs 5(i) and (ii) of this Agreement, (A)
the 30 day period in paragraph 5(i) of this Agreement and (B) the 90 day period
in paragraph 5(ii) of this Agreement have expired and Lender has not accelerated
any or all of the Senior Liabilities), or if the repayment of such Junior
Liabilities would cause an Default to occur, whether immediately or with the
passing of time, the giving of notice, or both, pursuant to the provisions of
the Loan Agreement, then the undersigned may not further enforce or collect on
either principal or interest payments with respect to the Junior Liabilities
until such time as Lender has been paid in full for all Senior Liabilities or
such Continuing Default is cured by Borrower or waived in writing by Lender, or
if such collection or enforcement is prohibited because repayment of the Junior
Liabilities would cause a default under the terms of the Loan Agreement then the
undersigned may not collect that portion of the Junior Liabilities that would
cause an Default to occur, whether immediately or with the passing of time, the
giving of notice, or both, pursuant to the provisions of the Loan Agreement. To
the extent that the undersigned takes any permitted action pursuant to this
paragraph 10, the undersigned shall give Lender written notice of such action
contemporaneously with or prior to the taking of each such action.
11. The undersigned represents and warrants to Lender that (a) the
undersigned has all requisite power and authority to execute and deliver this
Agreement to Lender; and (b) the undersigned is the sole owner of, and has not
assigned, transferred or set over in whole or in part, any of the undersigned's
right, title or interest and liens in any of Borrower's property (whether real
or personal) securing the Junior Liabilities.
12. This Agreement shall in all respects be a continuing agreement and
shall remain in full force and effect (notwithstanding, without limitation, that
at any time or from time to time the Senior Liabilities shall have been paid
down to zero in connection with any line of credit, floor plan or revolving
indebtedness of any kind, unless Lender shall have cancelled the Senior
Liabilities) until the first to occur of (i) the final and permanent payment in
full of all Senior Liabilities, (ii) the payment in full of all Junior
Liabilities, or (iii) the conversion of the Convertible Note, in each case
including any and all, extensions, amendments, modifications or renewals of any
of such Senior Liabilities or Junior Liabilities); any and all interest accruing
on any of the foregoing, and any and all expenses paid or incurred by Lender in
endeavoring to collect or realize upon any of the foregoing or any security
therefor), at which time this Agreement shall terminate.
13. Lender may, from time to time, whether before or after any
discontinuance of this Agreement, at its sole discretion and without notice to
the undersigned, take any or all of the following actions: (a) retain or obtain
a security interest in any property to secure any of the Senior Liabilities; (b)
retain or obtain the primary or secondary obligation of any other obligor or
obligors with respect to any of the Senior Liabilities; (c) extend or renew for
one or more periods (whether or not longer than the original period), alter or
exchange any of the Senior Liabilities, or release or compromise any obligation
of any nature of any obligor with respect to any of the Senior Liabilities; and
(d) release its security interest in, or surrender, release or permit any
substitution or exchange for, all or any part of any property securing any of
the Senior Liabilities, or extend or renew for one or more periods (whether or
not longer than the original period) or release, compromise, alter or exchange
any obligations of any nature of any obligor with respect to any such property.
14. Lender may, from time to time, whether before or after any
discontinuance of this Agreement, assign or transfer any or all of the Senior
Liabilities or any interest therein; and, notwithstanding any such assignment or
transfer or any subsequent assignment or transfer thereof, such Senior
Liabilities shall be and remain Senior Liabilities for the purposes of this
Agreement, and every immediate and successive assignee or transferee of any of
the Senior Liabilities or of any interest therein shall, to the extent of the
interest of such assignee or transferee in the Senior Liabilities, be entitled
to the benefits of this Agreement to the same extent as if such assignee or
transferee were Lender; provided, however, that, unless Lender shall otherwise
consent in writing, Lender shall have an unimpaired right, prior and superior to
that of any such assignee or transferee, to enforce this Agreement, for the
benefit of Lender, as to those of the Senior Liabilities which Lender has not
assigned or transferred; and provided further than any assignee or transferee
must agree to the terms of this Agreement and the undersigned must be given
notice of such transfer or assignment.
15. Lender shall not be prejudiced in its rights under this Agreement
by any act or failure to act of Borrower or the undersigned, or any
noncompliance of Borrower or the undersigned with any agreement or obligation,
regardless of any knowledge thereof which Lender may have or with which Lender
may be charged; and no action of Lender permitted hereunder shall in any way
affect or impair the rights of Lender and the obligations of the undersigned
under this Agreement.
16. No delay on the part of Lender in the exercise of any right or
remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise by
Lender of any right or remedy shall preclude other or further exercise thereof
or the exercise of any other right or remedy; nor shall any modification or
waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement be binding upon Lender except
as expressly set forth in writing duly signed and delivered on behalf of Lender.
For the purposes of this Agreement, Senior Liabilities shall include all
obligations of Borrower to Lender, notwithstanding any right or power of
Borrower or anyone else to assert any claim or defense as to the invalidity or
unenforceability of any such obligation, and no such claim or defense shall
affect or impair the agreements and obligations of the undersigned hereunder.
17. This Agreement shall be binding upon the undersigned and upon the
undersigned's respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns;
and, to the extent that Borrower is a corporation, all references herein to
Borrower shall be deemed to include any successor or successors, whether
immediate or remote, to such corporation. If more than one party shall execute
this Agreement, the term "undersigned" as used herein shall mean all parties
executing this Agreement and each of them, and all such parties shall be jointly
and severally obligated hereunder.
18. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of Illinois applicable to contracts wholly executed and performed
within the boundaries of that state. Wherever possible each provision of this
Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under
applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or
invalid under such law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of
such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such
provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement. All notices, demands,
instructions and other communications required or permitted to be given to or
made upon any person or entity relating to this Agreement shall be in writing
personally delivered or sent by overnight courier or by facsimile machine, and
shall be deemed to be given for purposes of this Agreement on the day that such
writing is delivered or sent by facsimile machine or one (1) days after such
notice is sent by overnight courier to the intended recipient thereof in
accordance with the provisions of this paragraph. Unless otherwise specified in
a notice sent or delivered in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this
paragraph, notices, demands, instructions and other communications in writing
shall be given to or made upon the respective signatories hereto at their
respective addresses indicated for such signatories set forth below the
signature lines of this Agreement.
19. THE UNDERSIGNED ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE LOAN AGREEMENT IS BEING
SIGNED BY THE LENDER IN PARTIAL CONSIDERATION OF LENDER'S RIGHT TO ENFORCE IN
THE JURISDICTION STATED BELOW THE TERMS AND PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE
LOAN AGREEMENT AND ALL OF THE AGREEMENTS, DOCUMENTS AND INSTRUMENTS CONTEMPLATED

OR (B) LENDER AGAINST THE UNDERSIGNED WITH RESPECT TO ANY MATTER WHATSOEVER
RELATING TO, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THIS AGREEMENT.
20. To the extent that any right granted to Lender is also granted to
the Lender as defined in the other Subordination Agreement - Xxxxxx Boats &
Motors, Inc. Indebtedness to Brunswick Corporation executed by the undersigned
as of the date hereof, such right shall be deemed to be a joint right of both
Lender and the lender under such other subordination agreement.
21. This Subordination Agreement may only be amended by a written
instrument signed by the Borrower, the undersigned and the Lender.
