Each of the Second Lien Collateral Agent (for itself and on behalf of each Second Lien Claimholder) and the First Lien Collateral Agent (for itself and on behalf of each First Lien Claimholder) agrees that it shall not (and hereby waives any right to) contest or support any other Person in contesting, in any proceeding (including any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding), the priority, validity or enforceability of a Lien held by or on behalf of any of the First Lien Claimholders in the First Lien Collateral or by or on behalf of any of the Second Lien Claimholders in the Second Lien Collateral, as the case may be; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of the First Lien Collateral Agent or any First Lien Claimholder to enforce this Agreement, including the priority of the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations as provided in Sections 2.01 and 3.01.

SECTION 2.05 No New Liens.

(a) Limitation on other Collateral for First Lien Claimholders. So long as any Second Lien Obligations remain outstanding, and subject to Article VI, (i) the First Lien Collateral Agent agrees that, after the date hereof, neither the First Lien Collateral Agent nor any First Lien Claimholder shall acquire or hold any Lien on any assets of the type contemplated by the definition of “First Lien Collateral” of any Grantor securing any First Lien Obligations which assets are not also subject to the second-priority Lien of the Second Lien Collateral Agent under the Second Lien Collateral Documents, and (ii) each Grantor agrees not to grant any Lien on any assets of the type contemplated by the definition of “First Lien Collateral”, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to xxxxx x Xxxx on any such assets, in favor of the First Lien Collateral Agent or the First Lien Claimholders unless it, or such Subsidiary, has granted a similar Lien on such assets in favor of the Second Lien Collateral Agent or the Second Lien Claimholders. If the First Lien Collateral Agent or any First Lien Claimholder shall (nonetheless and in breach hereof) acquire any Lien on any assets of the type contemplated by the definition of “First Lien Collateral” of any Grantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries securing any First Lien Obligations which assets are not also subject to the second-priority Lien of the Second Lien Collateral Agent under the Second Lien Collateral Documents, then the First Lien Collateral Agent (or the relevant First Lien Claimholder), shall, without the need for any further consent of any other Person and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any other First Lien Document (x) in addition to holding such Lien for the benefit of itself and the other First Lien Claimholders as security for the First Lien Obligations, also hold and be deemed to have held such Lien for the benefit of the Second Lien Collateral Agent as security for the Second Lien Obligations subject to the priorities set forth herein or (y) release such Lien.

(b) Limitation on other Collateral for Second Lien Claimholders. Until the date upon which the Discharge of First Lien Obligations shall have occurred, (i) the Second Lien Collateral Agent agrees that, after the date hereof, neither the Second Lien Collateral Agent nor any Second Lien Claimholder shall acquire or hold any Lien on any assets of the type contemplated by the definition of “Second Lien Collateral” of any Grantor securing any Second Lien Obligations which assets are not also subject to the senior priority Lien of the First Lien Collateral Agent under the First Lien Collateral Documents, and (ii) each Grantor agrees not to grant any Lien on any assets of the type contemplated by the definition of “Second Lien Collateral”, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to xxxxx x Xxxx on any such assets, in favor of the Second Lien Collateral Agent or the Second Lien Claimholders unless it, or such Subsidiary, has granted a similar Lien on such assets in favor of the First Lien Collateral Agent or the First Lien Claimholders. If the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any Second Lien Claimholder shall (nonetheless and in breach hereof) acquire any Lien on any assets of the type contemplated by the definition of “Second Lien Collateral” of any Grantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries securing any Second Lien Obligations which assets are not also subject to the first-priority Lien of the First Lien Collateral Agent under the First Lien Collateral Documents, then the Second Lien Collateral Agent (or the relevant Second Lien Claimholder), shall, without the need for any further consent of any other Person and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any other Second Lien Document (x) in addition to holding such Lien for the benefit of itself and the other Second Lien Claimholders as security for the Second Lien Obligations, also hold and be deemed to have held such Lien for the benefit of the First Lien Collateral Agent as security for the First Lien Obligations or (y) release such Lien.

SECTION 2.06 Similar Liens and Agreements. The parties hereto agree that it is their intention that the First Lien Collateral and the Second Lien Collateral be identical. In furtherance of the foregoing and of Section 8.09, the parties hereto agree, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement:

(a) upon request by the First Lien Collateral Agent or the Second Lien Collateral Agent, to cooperate in good faith (and to direct their counsel to cooperate in good faith) from time to time in order to determine the specific items included in the First Lien Collateral and the Second Lien Collateral and the steps taken to perfect their respective Liens thereon and the identity of the respective parties obligated under the First Lien Documents and the Second Lien Documents; and

(b) that the documents and agreements creating or evidencing the Liens on the First Lien Collateral and the Second Lien Collateral shall be in all material respects the same forms of documents other than with respect to the senior and subordinate nature of the security interests in the Collateral securing the respective First Lien Obligations and Second Lien Obligations thereunder.

In addition, to the extent any guaranty is entered into by any Grantor in respect of the Second Lien Obligations (whether or not the First Lien Collateral Agent or First Lien Claimholders have consented thereto), a guaranty by such Person shall be entered into in respect of the First Lien Obligations, and for all purposes hereunder such Person shall be deemed a guarantor of the First Lien Obligations and the Second Lien Obligations. Furthermore, to the extent any guaranty is entered into by any Grantor in respect of the First Lien Obligations (whether or not the Second

Lien Agent or the Second Lien Claimholders have consented thereto), a guaranty by such Person shall be entered into in respect of the Second Lien Obligations and, for all purposes hereunder, such Person shall be deemed a guarantor of the Second Lien Obligations and the First Lien Obligations.

(A) from the date hereof until the occurrence of the Second Lien Enforcement Date (such period, the “Standstill Period”), will not exercise or seek to exercise any rights or remedies (including any right of set-off or recoupment) with respect to any Collateral (including, without limitation, the exercise of any right under any lockbox agreement, account control or collection agreement or similar agreement or arrangement to which the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any Second Lien Claimholder is a party) or institute or commence (or join with any other Person in commencing) any enforcement, collection, execution, levy or foreclosure action or proceeding (including, without limitation, any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding) with respect to any Lien held by it under the Second Lien Collateral Documents;

(B) will not contest, protest or object to any foreclosure proceeding or action brought by the First Lien Collateral Agent or any First Lien Claimholder or any other exercise by the First Lien Collateral Agent or any First Lien Claimholder, of any rights and remedies relating to the Collateral under the First Lien Collateral Documents, including, but not limited to, any motion by the First lien Collateral agent to sell the Collateral pursuant to Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, provided that the respective interests of the Second Lien Claimholders attach to the proceeds thereof, subject to the relative priorities described in Article II; provided, however, that this Section 3.01(B) shall constitute consent by the Second Lien Collateral Agent and the Second Lien Claimholders pursuant to Section 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code to the Section 363 sale of any or all of the Collateral; and

(C) subject to the rights of the Second Lien Collateral Agent under clause (i)(A) above, will not object to the forbearance by the First Lien Collateral Agent or the First Lien Claimholders from bringing or

pursuing any foreclosure proceeding or action or any other exercise of any rights or remedies relating to the Collateral; and

(ii) subject to Section 5.01, until the Discharge of the First Lien Obligations, the First Lien Collateral Agent and the First Lien Claimholders shall have the exclusive right to enforce rights, exercise remedies (including set-off and the right to credit bid their debt) and make determinations regarding the release, disposition, or restrictions with respect to the Collateral without any consultation with or the consent of the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any Second Lien Claimholder; provided, that

(A) in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding commenced by or against the Company or any other Grantor, the Second Lien Collateral Agent may file a claim or statement of interest with respect to the Second Lien Obligations;

(B) the Second Lien Collateral Agent may take any action (not adverse to the Liens on the Collateral securing the First Lien Obligations, or the rights of any First Lien Collateral Agent or the First Lien Claimholders to exercise remedies in respect thereof) in order to preserve or protect its Lien on the Collateral;

(C) the Second Lien Claimholders shall be entitled to file any 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 Lien Claimholders, including, without limitation, any claims secured by the Collateral, if any, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Agreement;

(D) the Second Lien Claimholders shall be entitled to file any pleadings, objections, motions or agreements which assert rights or interests available to unsecured creditors of the Grantors arising under either the Debtor Relief Law or applicable non-bankruptcy law;

(G) the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any Second Lien Claimholder may exercise any of its rights or remedies with respect to the Collateral upon the occurrence and during the effective continuation of the Second Lien Enforcement Date.

In exercising rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral, the First Lien Collateral Agent and the First Lien Claimholders may enforce the provisions of the First Lien Documents and exercise remedies thereunder, all in such order and in such manner as they may determine advisable in the exercise of their sole discretion. Such exercise and enforcement shall include the rights of an agent appointed by the First Lien Collateral Agent and the First Lien Claimholders to sell or otherwise dispose of Collateral upon foreclosure, to incur expenses in connection with such sale or disposition, and to exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured creditor under the UCC of any applicable jurisdiction and of a secured creditor under Debtor Relief Laws of any applicable jurisdiction.

(b) The Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders) agrees that it will not take or receive any Collateral or any proceeds of Collateral in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy (including set-off or recoupment) with respect to any Collateral, and that any Collateral or proceeds taken or received by it will be paid over to the First Lien Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 4.02, unless and until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, except as expressly provided in the proviso in Section 3.01(a)(ii) and Section 6.07. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, unless and until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, except as expressly provided in the proviso in Section 3.01(a)(ii), the sole right of the Second Lien Collateral Agent and the Second Lien Claimholders with respect to the Collateral is to hold a Lien on the Collateral pursuant to the Second Lien Collateral Documents for the period and to the extent granted therein and to receive a share of the proceeds thereof, if any, after the Discharge of the First Lien Obligations has occurred in accordance with the terms of the Second Lien Documents and applicable law.

(c) Subject to the proviso in Section 3.01(a)(ii) and Section 6.01, (i) the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders) agrees that the Second Lien Collateral Agent and the Second Lien Claimholders will not take any action that would hinder, delay or impede any exercise of remedies under the First Lien Collateral Documents, including any sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of the Collateral, whether by foreclosure or otherwise, and (ii) the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders) hereby waives any and all rights it or the Second Lien Claimholders may have as a junior lien creditor or otherwise to object to the manner or order in which the First Lien Collateral Agent or the First Lien Claimholders seek to enforce the Liens granted in any of the First Lien Collateral.

(d) The Second Lien Collateral Agent hereby acknowledges and agrees that no covenant, agreement or restriction contained in the Second Lien Collateral Documents shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights and remedies of the First Lien Collateral Agent or the First Lien Claimholders with respect to the Collateral as set forth in this Agreement and the First Lien Collateral Documents.

SECTION 3.02 Actions Upon Breach.

(a) If any Second Lien Claimholder, contrary to this Agreement, commences or participates in any action or proceeding against the Company, any other Grantor or the Collateral, the Company or such Grantor, with the prior written consent of the First Lien Collateral Agent, may interpose as a defense or dilatory plea the making of this Agreement, and

the First Lien Collateral Agent may intervene and interpose such defense or plea in its name, in the name of the First Lien Claimholders or in the name of the Company or such Grantor.

(b) Should any Second Lien Claimholder, contrary to this Agreement, in any way take, or attempt or threaten to take, any action with respect to the 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, the First Lien Collateral Agent (in its own name or in the name of the Company) or the Company may obtain relief against such Second Lien Claimholder by injunction, specific performance and/or other appropriate equitable relief, it being understood and agreed by the Second Lien Collateral Agent on behalf of each Second Lien Claimholder that (i) the First Lien Claimholders’ damages from such actions may be difficult to ascertain and may be irreparable, and (ii) the Second Lien Collateral Agent on behalf of each Second Lien Claimholder waives any defense that the Company, any other Grantor and/or the First Lien Claimholders cannot demonstrate damage or be made whole by the awarding of damages.

(a) If, in connection with:

(i) the exercise of any First Lien Collateral Agent’s remedies in respect of the Collateral, including any sale, exchange, transfer or other disposition of any such Collateral (an “Exercise of Remedies”); or

(ii) any sale, exchange, transfer or other disposition of any Collateral permitted under the terms of the First Lien Documents (whether or not an event of default thereunder, and as defined therein, has occurred and is continuing) (a “Disposition”);

the First Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself or any of the First Lien Claimholders) releases any of its Liens on any part of the Collateral other than in connection with the Discharge of the First Lien Obligations, then the Liens, if any, of the Second Lien Collateral Agent, for itself or for the benefit of the Second Lien Claimholders, on such Collateral shall be automatically, unconditionally and simultaneously released (the “Second Lien Release”) and the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself or any such Second Lien Claimholders) shall promptly execute and deliver to the First Lien Collateral Agent or such Grantor such termination statements, releases and other documents as the First Lien Collateral Agent or such Grantor may request to effectively confirm such release.

(b) Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations occurs, the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders) hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the First Lien Collateral Agent and any officer or agent of the First Lien Collateral Agent, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of the Second Lien Collateral Agent or such holder or in the First Lien Collateral Agent’s own name, from time to time in the First Lien Collateral Agent’s discretion, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Section 5.01, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary to accomplish the purposes of this Section 5.01, including any endorsements or other instruments of transfer or release.

(c) Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations occurs, to the extent that the First Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the First Lien Claimholders) (i) has released any Lien on Collateral and any such Liens are later reinstated or (ii) obtains any new Liens then the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders) shall be granted a Lien on any such Collateral subject to the priorities set forth in Article II.

SECTION 5.02 Insurance. The First Lien Collateral Agent and the Second Lien Collateral Agent shall be named as additional insureds and the Control Agent shall be named as loss payee (on behalf of the First Lien Collateral Agent, the First Lien Claimholders, the Second Lien Collateral Agent and the Second Lien Claimholders) under any insurance

policies maintained from time to time by any Grantor. Until the date upon which the Discharge of First Lien Obligations shall have occurred, as between the First Lien Collateral Agent and the First Lien Claimholders, on the one hand, and the Second Lien Collateral Agent and the Second Lien Claimholders on the other, the First Lien Collateral Agent and the First Lien Claimholders shall have the sole and exclusive right (a) to adjust or settle any insurance policy or claim covering any Collateral in the event of any loss thereunder and (b) to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding affecting any Collateral. Until the date upon which the Discharge of First Lien Obligations shall have occurred, all proceeds of any such policy and any such award in respect of any Collateral that are payable to the First Lien Collateral Agent and the Second Lien Collateral Agent shall be paid to the First Lien Collateral Agent for the benefit of the First Lien Claimholders to the extent required under the First Lien Documents and thereafter to the Second Lien Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Second Lien Claimholders to the extent required under the applicable Second Lien Documents and then to the owner of the subject property or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. If the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any Second Lien Claimholder shall, at any time, receive any proceeds of any such insurance policy or any such award in contravention of this Agreement, it shall pay such proceeds over to the First Lien Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms of Section 4.02.

SECTION 5.03 Amendments to First Lien Documents and Second Lien Documents.

(a) Until the date upon which the Discharge of First Lien Obligations shall have occurred, without the prior written consent of the First Lien Collateral Agent, no Second Lien Collateral Document may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified or entered into to the extent such amendment, supplement or modification, or the terms of any new Second Lien Collateral Document would contravene any of the terms of this Agreement. The Second Lien Collateral Agent agrees that the Second Lien Security Agreement shall include the following language or language substantially similar:

“Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the lien and security interest granted to the Trustee, for the benefit of the holders of the 2014 Notes, pursuant to this Agreement, and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Trustee, for the benefit of the holders of the 2014 Notes, under this Agreement, are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of July 29, 2009 as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented, modified or replaced from time to time (the ‘Intercreditor Agreement’) by and among Royal Bank of Canada, as First Lien Collateral Agent, U.S. Bank National Association, as Second Lien Collateral Agent, Royal Bank of Canada as Control Agent and the Grantors (as defined therein) from time to time a party thereto. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control.”

In the event of a Refinancing of the First Lien Obligations not prohibited under the Indenture, the Control Agent and the Second Lien Collateral Agent agree to enter into a replacement or amendment of this Agreement to maintain the lien subordination, intercreditor and other provisions set forth herein. In the event of a Refinancing of the Second Lien Obligations permitted under the Credit Agreement and the Indenture, the First Lien Collateral Agent agrees

to enter into a replacement or amendment of this Agreement to maintain the lien subordination, intercreditor and other provisions set forth herein.

(b) Until the date upon which the Discharge of First Lien Obligations shall have occurred, in the event the First Lien Collateral Agent or the First Lien Claimholders enter into any amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the First Lien Collateral Documents for the purpose of adding to, or deleting from, or waiving or consenting to any departures from any provisions of any First Lien Collateral Document or changing in any manner the rights of the First Lien Collateral Agent, the First Lien Claimholders, or the Grantors thereunder, then such amendment, waiver or consent shall automatically apply in a comparable manner to any comparable provision of the Second Lien Collateral Documents (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include the Note Collateral Documents (as defined in the Shared Collateral Agreement), the Indenture or the 2014 Notes) without the consent of the Second Lien Collateral Agent or the Second Lien Claimholders and without any action by the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any Grantor; provided, however, (i) that no such amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective to (A) release any Lien of the Second Lien Collateral Documents, (B) remove assets subject to the Lien of the Second Lien Collateral Documents, (C) adversely affect the perfection or priority of any such Lien, except, in each case, to the extent that a release of, or adverse effect on the perfection or priority of, such Lien is permitted by Section 5.01 or Article VI, (D) reduce the principal of, or interest or other amounts payable on, any amount payable under the Indenture or any Second Lien Document, (E) postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest or other amounts payable on, any amounts payable under the Indenture or any Second Lien Document, (F) permit any Liens on the Collateral not permitted under the Second Lien Documents or Article VI, or (G) impose duties on the Second Lien Collateral Agent, in each case without the consent of the Second Lien Collateral Agent and (ii) notice of such amendment, waiver or consent shall have been given to the Second Lien Collateral Agent no later than 10 days after its effectiveness (provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the effectiveness or validity thereof) provided further that this paragraph is intended solely to set forth provisions by which the Second Lien Collateral Documents shall be automatically affected by amendments, waivers and consents given by the First Lien Collateral Agent and First Lien Claimholders under the Credit Agreement and the First Lien Collateral Documents and is not intended to impose any liability on the First Lien Collateral Agent or First Lien Claimholders.

SECTION 5.04 Rights As Unsecured Creditors. The Second Lien Collateral Agent and the Second Lien Claimholders may exercise rights and remedies as unsecured creditors against any Grantor in accordance with the terms of the Second Lien Documents and applicable law. Except as otherwise set forth in Section 2.01, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any Second Lien Claimholders of the required payments of interest and principal so long as such receipt is not the direct or indirect result of the exercise by the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any Second Lien Claimholders of rights or remedies as a secured creditor (including set-off or recoupment) or enforcement of any Lien created under the Second Lien Collateral Documents held by any of them. Nothing in this Agreement impairs or otherwise adversely affects any rights or remedies the First Lien Collateral Agent or the First Lien Claimholders may have with respect to the Collateral, including, without limitation, rights under Section 4.02. In the event that any Second Lien Claimholder 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 Liens securing the First Lien Obligations) to the same extent as all other Liens securing the Second Lien Obligations (created pursuant to the Second Lien Collateral Documents) subject to this Agreement.

SECTION 5.05 Control Agent for Perfection.

(a) The First Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the First Lien Claimholders) and the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders) each hereby appoint Royal Bank of Canada, as its collateral agent (in such capacity, together with any successor in such capacity appointed by the First Lien Collateral Agent and the Second Lien Collateral Agent, the “Control Agent”) for the limited purpose of acting as the agent on behalf of the First Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the First Lien Claimholders) and the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders) with respect to the Control Collateral for the purposes of perfecting the Liens of such parties on the Control Collateral. The Control Agent accepts such appointment and agrees to hold the Control Collateral in its possession or control (or in the possession or control of its agents or bailees) as Control Agent for the benefit of the First Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the First Lien Claimholders) and the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders) and any permitted assignee of any thereof solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted to such parties in such Control Collateral, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.05.

(b) The Control Agent, the First Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the First Lien Claimholders), and the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders) each hereby agrees that the First Lien Collateral Agent shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to give instructions to, and otherwise direct, the Control Agent in respect of the Control Collateral or any control agreement with respect to any Controlled Accounts until the earlier of (i) the date upon which the Discharge of First Lien Obligations shall have occurred and (ii) the Second Lien Enforcement Date, and neither the Second Lien Collateral Agent nor any Second Lien Claimholder will impede, hinder, delay or interfere with the exercise of such rights by the First Lien Collateral Agent in any respect. The Grantors hereby jointly and severally agree to pay, reimburse, indemnify and hold harmless the Control Agent to the same extent and on the same terms that the Grantors are required to do so for the First Lien Collateral Agent in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

(c) The provisions of Article IX of the Credit Agreement and Article VII of the Indenture shall inure to the benefit of the Control Agent in respect of this Agreement, the First Lien Collateral Documents and the Second Lien Collateral Documents and shall be binding upon all Grantors, all First Lien Claimholders and all Second Lien Claimholders and upon the parties hereto in such respect. In furtherance and not in derogation of the rights, privileges and immunities of the Control Agent therein set forth:

(i) The Control Agent is authorized to take all such actions as are provided to be taken by it as Control Agent hereunder, under any First Lien Collateral Document, under any Second Lien Collateral Document or as instructed by the First Lien Collateral Agent or the Second Lien Collateral Agent as provided herein, in each case together with all other actions reasonably

incidental thereto. As to any matters not expressly provided for herein (including, without limitation, the timing and methods of realization upon the Collateral) or in one or more of the First Lien Collateral Documents or Second Lien Collateral Documents, the Control Agent shall act or refrain from acting in accordance with written instructions from the First Lien Collateral Agent or the Second Lien Collateral Agent, as applicable, or, in the absence of such instructions or provisions, in accordance with its reasonable discretion.

(ii) The Control Agent shall not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of any Lien created under and First Lien Collateral Document or Second Lien Collateral Document in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder unless such action or omission constitutes gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Control Agent shall not have a duty to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms of this Agreement, any First Lien Collateral Document or any Second Lien Collateral Document by any Grantor. This Agreement shall not subject the Control Agent to any obligation or liability except as expressly set forth herein. In particular, the Control Agent shall have no duty to investigate whether the obligations of any Grantor to the First Lien Collateral Agent or the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder or Second Lien Claimholder are in default or whether the First Lien Collateral Agent or the Second Lien Collateral Agent is entitled under the First Lien Collateral Documents or the Second Lien Collateral Documents, as applicable, or otherwise to give any instructions or notice of exclusive control. The Control Agent is fully entitled to rely upon such instructions as it believes in good faith to have originated from the First Lien Collateral Agent or the Second Lien Collateral Agent, as applicable.

(d) Except as set forth below, the Control Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to the First Lien Collateral Agent, the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any First Lien Claimholder or any Second Lien Claimholder including, without limitation, any obligation to assure that the Control Collateral is genuine or owned by any Grantor or one of their respective Subsidiaries or to preserve rights or benefits of any Person except as expressly set forth in this Section 5.05. In acting on behalf of the Second Lien Collateral Agent and the Second Lien Claimholders and the First Lien Collateral Agent and the First Lien Claimholders, the duties or responsibilities of the Control Agent under this Section 5.05 shall be limited solely to (i) obtaining “control” under the UCC over each Controlled Account as contemplated by the First Lien Collateral Documents and the Second Lien Collateral Documents in accordance with Section 5.05(a), and (ii) delivering such collateral (or otherwise allowing the Second Lien Collateral Agent to obtain control of Control Collateral) as set forth in Section 5.05(f) and 5.05(g). The rights of the Second Lien Collateral Agent with respect to the Collateral shall at all times be subject to the terms of this Agreement and to the First Lien Collateral Agent’s rights under the First Lien Documents.

(e) Neither the Control Agent nor the First Lien Collateral Agent shall have by reason of the Second Lien Documents or this Agreement or any other document a fiduciary relationship in respect of the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any Second Lien Claimholder.

(f) Upon the Discharge of First Lien Obligations (other than in connection with a Refinancing of the First Lien Obligations), the Control Agent shall deliver to the Second Lien Collateral Agent the Control Collateral together with any necessary endorsements (or otherwise allow the Second Lien Collateral Agent to obtain control of such Control Collateral) or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct and the Second Lien Collateral Agent shall accept and succeed to the role of the Control Agent as the agent for perfection on the Control Collateral.

(g) The Control Agent shall have an unfettered right to resign as Control Agent upon thirty (30) days notice to the First Lien Collateral Agent and the Second Lien Collateral Agent. Upon the effective date of such resignation, the Control Agent shall deliver the Control Collateral to the successor Control Agent (or otherwise allow the successor Control Agent to obtain control of such Control Collateral). If upon the effective date of such resignation no successor Control Agent has been appointed by the First Lien Collateral Agent and the Second Lien Collateral Agent, the Control Agent shall deliver to the First Lien Collateral Agent the Control Collateral together with any necessary endorsements (or otherwise allow the First Lien Collateral Agent to obtain control of such Control Collateral) or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct and the First Lien Collateral Agent shall accept and succeed to the role of the Control Agent as the agent for perfection on the Control Collateral.

SECTION 5.06 When Discharge of First Lien Obligations Deemed to Not Have Occurred. If at any time after the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, the Company thereafter enters into any Refinancing of any First Lien Document evidencing a First Lien Obligation, which Refinancing is permitted by the Indenture, then such Discharge of First Lien Obligations shall automatically be deemed not to have occurred for all purposes of this Agreement (other than with respect to any actions taken prior to the date of such designation as a result of the occurrence of such first Discharge of First Lien Obligations), and the obligations under such Refinancing First Lien Document shall automatically be treated as First Lien Obligations for all purposes of this Agreement, including for purposes of the Lien priorities and rights in respect of Collateral set forth herein, and the First Lien Collateral Agent under such First Lien Documents shall be a First Lien Collateral Agent for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon receipt of a notice stating that the Company has entered into a new First Lien Document (which notice shall include the identity of the new collateral agent, such agent, the “New Agent”), the Second Lien Collateral Agent shall promptly (a) enter into such documents and agreements (including amendments or supplements to this Agreement as the Company or such New Agent shall reasonably request in order to provide to the New Agent the rights contemplated hereby, in each case consistent in all material respects with the terms of this Agreement and (b) deliver to the New Agent any Control Collateral held by it together with any necessary endorsements (or otherwise allow the New Agent to obtain control of the Control Collateral). If the new First Lien Obligations under the new First Lien Documents are secured by assets of the Grantors of the type constituting Collateral that do not also secure the Second Lien Obligations, then the Second Lien Obligations shall be secured at such time by a Lien on such assets to the same extent provided in the Second Lien Collateral Documents.

Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, if the Company or any other Grantor shall be subject to any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and the First Lien Collateral Agent shall desire to permit the use of all or a portion of the Collateral as cash collateral or to permit the Company or any other Grantor to obtain financing, whether from the First Lien Claimholders or any other entity under Section 363 or Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar Debtor Relief Law, which financing may include a Refinancing of the First Lien Obligations (provided that (i) such financing or Refinancing shall be secured by all or any portion of the Collateral (including assets that but for the application of Section 552 of the Bankruptcy Code would be Collateral) and (ii) any such financing, whether or not pursuant to Section 363 or Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar Debtor Relief Law, shall not be secured by any assets of any Grantor other than the Collateral) (each, a “DIP Financing”), then the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders) agrees that (a) it will not in respect of the Collateral (i) raise any objection to, or otherwise contest or interfere with, such use of cash collateral or DIP Financing, (ii) support any other Person objecting to, such sale, use, or lease of cash collateral or DIP Financing or (iii) request any form of adequate protection or any other relief in connection therewith with respect to the Collateral (except as agreed by the First Lien Collateral Agent or to the extent expressly permitted by Section 6.03) and, to the extent the Liens in respect of the Collateral securing the First Lien Obligations are subordinated to or pari passu with such DIP Financing, the Second Lien Collateral Agent will subordinate its Liens in the Collateral to (A) the Liens securing such DIP Financing (and all obligations relating thereto), (B) any adequate protection provided to the First Lien Claimholders and (C) any “carve-out” for professional and United States Trustee fees, claims of reclamation creditors or holders of claims under Section 503(b) of the Bankruptcy Code agreed to by the First Lien Collateral Agent; and (b) notice received two (2) calendar days prior to the entry of an order approving such usage of cash collateral or approving such DIP Financing shall be adequate notice; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit the Second Lien Collateral Agent or the Second Lien Claimholders from objecting solely to any provisions in any DIP Financing relating to, describing or requiring any provision or content of a plan of reorganization other than provisions solely requiring that the DIP Financing be paid in full in cash. The Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders) agrees that it will raise no objection to or oppose a sale or other disposition of any Collateral (and any post-petition assets subject to adequate protection liens in favor of the First Lien Collateral Agent) free and clear of its Liens or other claims under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code if the Requisite Claimholders under the Credit Agreement have consented to such sale or disposition of such assets so long as the respective interests of the Second Lien Claimholders attach to the proceeds thereof, subject to the terms of this Agreement. If requested by the First Lien Collateral Agent in connection therewith, the Second Lien Collateral Agent shall affirmatively consent to such a sale or disposition.

SECTION 6.02 Relief from the Automatic Stay. Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders) agrees that none of them shall (a) seek relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Collateral, without the prior written consent of the First Lien Collateral Agent and Requisite Claimholders

under the First Lien Collateral Agreement, or (b) oppose any request by the First Lien Collateral Agent or any First Lien Claimholder to seek relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Collateral.

SECTION 6.03 Adequate Protection.

(a) The Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders) agrees that none of them shall contest (or support any other person contesting) (i) any request by the First Lien Collateral Agent or the First Lien Claimholders for adequate protection in respect of the Collateral or (ii) any objection by the First Lien Collateral Agent or the First Lien Claimholders to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on the First Lien Collateral Agent or the First Lien Claimholders claiming a lack of adequate protection in respect of the Collateral. In any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders) may seek adequate protection in respect of the Second Lien Obligations and the Collateral, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, only if (x) the First Lien Claimholders (or any subset thereof) are granted adequate protection in the form of additional collateral including replacement liens on post-petition collateral, and (y) such additional protection is in the form of a Lien on such additional collateral, which Lien, if granted, will be subordinated to the adequate protection Liens securing the First Lien Obligations and the Liens securing any DIP Financing (and all obligations relating thereto) on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Second Lien Obligations are so subordinated to the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations under this Agreement and the Liens securing any such DIP Financing. In the event the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself or any of the Second Lien Claimholders) seeks or requests adequate protection in respect of Second Lien Obligations and the Collateral and such adequate protection is granted in the form of additional collateral, then the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders) agrees that the First Lien Collateral Agent shall also be granted a Lien on such additional collateral as security for the First Lien Obligations and for any DIP Financing and that any Lien on such additional collateral securing the Second Lien Obligations shall be subordinated to the Liens on such collateral securing the First Lien Obligations and any DIP Financing (and all obligations relating thereto) and to any other Liens granted to the First Lien Claimholders as adequate protection on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Second Lien Obligations are so subordinated to the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations under this Agreement and the Liens securing DIP Financing.

(b) Similarly, if the First Lien Claimholders (or any subset thereof) are granted adequate protection in the form of a superpriority claim, then the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself or any of the Second Lien Claimholders) may seek or request a superpriority claim, which superpriority claim will be junior in all respects to the superpriority claim granted to the First Lien Collateral Agent and the First Lien Claimholders, and, in the event that the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself or any of the Second Lien Claimholders) seeks or requests adequate protection in respect of Second Lien Obligations and such adequate protection is granted in the form of a superpriority claim, then the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders) agrees that the First Lien Collateral Agent and the providers of any DIP Financing also shall be granted a superpriority claim, which superpriority claim will be senior in all respects to the superpriority claim granted to the Second Lien Collateral Agent and the Second Lien Claimholders.

SECTION 6.04 No Waiver. Nothing contained herein shall prohibit or in any way limit the First Lien Collateral Agent or any First Lien Claimholder from objecting in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise to any action taken by the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any of the Second Lien Claimholders in respect of the Collateral, including the seeking by the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any Second Lien Claimholders of adequate protection in respect of the Collateral or the asserting by the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any Second Lien Claimholders of any of its rights and remedies under the Second Lien Documents or otherwise; provided, however, that this Section 6.04 shall not limit the rights of the Second Lien Claimholders under the proviso in Section 3.01(a)(ii) or under Section 6.03 or Section 6.08.

SECTION 6.05 Avoidance Issues. If any First Lien Claimholder is required in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, or otherwise, to turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of the Company or any other Grantor any amount in respect of a First Lien Obligation (a “Recovery”), then such First Lien Claimholders shall be entitled to a reinstatement of First Lien Obligations with respect to all such recovered amounts. 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 from such date of reinstatement. Collateral or proceeds thereof received by the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any Second Lien Claimholder after a Discharge of First Lien Obligations and prior to the reinstatement of such First Lien Obligations shall be delivered to the First Lien Collateral Agent upon such reinstatement in accordance with Section 4.02.

SECTION 6.06 Separate Grants of Security and Separate Classification. Each of the Grantors, the First Lien Claimholders and the Second Lien Claimholders acknowledges and agrees that (a) the grants of Liens pursuant to the First Lien Collateral Documents and the Second Lien Collateral Documents constitute two separate and distinct grants of Liens and (b) because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Collateral, the Second Lien Obligations are fundamentally different from the First Lien Obligations and must be separately classified in any plan of reorganization proposed or adopted in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.

SECTION 6.07 Reorganization Securities. If, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, debt obligations of the reorganized debtor secured by Liens upon any property of the reorganized debtor of the type contemplated by the definition of “Collateral” are distributed pursuant to a plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan, both on account of First Lien Obligations and on account of Second Lien Obligations, then, to the extent the debt obligations distributed on account of the First Lien Obligations and on account of the Second Lien Obligations are secured by Liens upon the same property of the type contemplated by the definition of “Collateral”, the provisions of this Agreement will survive the distribution of such debt obligations pursuant to such plan and will apply with like effect to the Liens securing such debt obligations.

SECTION 6.08 Post-Petition Claims.

(a) Neither the Second Lien Collateral Agent nor any other Second Lien Claimholder shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the First Lien Collateral Agent or

any First Lien Claimholder for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of First Lien Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees, costs, charges or expenses to the extent of the value of the First Lien Collateral Agent’s Lien on the Collateral held for the benefit of the First Lien Claimholders, without regard to the existence of the Lien of the Second Lien Collateral Agent on behalf of the Second Lien Claimholders on the Collateral.

(b) Neither the First Lien Collateral Agent nor any other First Lien Claimholder shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any Second Lien Claimholder for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of Second Lien Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees, costs, charges or expenses to the extent of the value of the Lien of the Second Lien Collateral Agent on behalf of the Second Lien Claimholders on the Collateral (after taking into account the First Lien Obligations).

SECTION 6.09 Waiver. The Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders) waives any claim it or they may hereafter have against the First Lien Collateral Agent or any First Lien Claimholder arising out of the election of the First Lien Collateral Agent or any First Lien Claimholder of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code in respect of the Collateral, or out of any cash collateral or financing arrangement or out of any grant of a security interest in connection with the Collateral in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.

SECTION 6.10 Expense Claims. Neither the Second Lien Collateral Agent nor any Second Lien Claimholder will (a) contest the payment of fees, expenses or other amounts to the First Lien Collateral Agent or any First Lien Claimholder under Section 506(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise to the extent provided for in the First Lien Credit Agreement or (b) assert or enforce, at any time prior to the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, any claim under Section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code senior to or on parity with the First Lien Obligations for costs or expenses of preserving or disposing of any Collateral.

SECTION 6.11 Other Matters. To the extent that the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any Second Lien Claimholder has or acquires rights under Section 361, Section 363 or Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to any of the Collateral, the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders) agrees, unless the Discharge of the First Lien Obligations has occurred, not to assert any of such rights without the prior written consent of the First Lien Collateral Agent; provided that if requested by the First Lien Collateral Agent, the Second Lien Collateral Agent shall timely exercise such rights in the manner requested by the First Lien Collateral Agent, including any rights to payments in respect of such rights.

SECTION 6.12 Effectiveness in Insolvency or Liquidation 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 or Liquidation Proceeding. All references in this Agreement to any Grantor shall include such Person as a debtor-in-possession and any receiver or trustee for such Person in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.

SECTION 6.13 Limitation of Applicability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Article VI hereof shall apply only with respect to the Collateral and shall not in any way affect the rights of any of the Collateral Agent (as defined in the Shared Collateral Agreement), the Note Trustee (as defined in the Shared Collateral Agreement) or the holders of the 2014 Notes in their respective capacity as an unsecured creditor or as a result of the Liens held by any of them on other assets of the Company and the Guarantors not constituting Collateral.

(b) The Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders), acknowledges and agrees that the First Lien Collateral Agent and the First Lien Claimholders have made no express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the execution, validity, legality, completeness, collectibility or enforceability of any of the First Lien Documents, the ownership of any Collateral or the perfection or priority of any Liens thereon. The First Lien Claimholders will be entitled to manage and supervise their respective loans and extensions of credit under their respective First Lien Documents in accordance with law and as they may otherwise, in their sole discretion, deem appropriate.

(c) The Second Lien Collateral Agent and the Second Lien Claimholders shall have no duty to the First Lien Collateral Agent or any of the First Lien Claimholders, and the First Lien Collateral Agent and the First Lien Claimholders shall have no duty to the Second

Lien Collateral Agent or any of the Second Lien Claimholders, to act or refrain from acting in a manner which allows, or results in, the occurrence or continuance of an event of default or default under any agreements with the Company or any other Grantor (including the First Lien Documents and the Second Lien Documents), regardless of any knowledge thereof which they may have or be charged with.

(d) The Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders) hereby waives all claims against any First Lien Claimholder and the First Lien Collateral Agent, arising out of any and all actions which the First Lien Claimholders or the First Lien Collateral Agent may take or permit or omit to take with respect to the foreclosure upon, or sale, liquidation or other disposition of, any Collateral. The First Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the First Lien Claimholders) agrees that the Second Lien Claimholders and the Second Lien Collateral Agent have no duty to them in respect of the maintenance or preservation of the Collateral, the Second Lien Obligations or otherwise. The Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders) agrees that the First Lien Claimholders and the First Lien Collateral Agent have no duty to them in respect of the maintenance or preservation of the Collateral, the First Lien Obligations or otherwise.

(e) The Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders) agrees not to assert and hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any right to demand, request, plead or otherwise assert or otherwise claim the benefit of, any marshalling, appraisal, valuation or other similar right that may otherwise be available under applicable law with respect to the Collateral or any other similar rights a junior secured creditor may have under applicable law.

SECTION 7.03 Obligations Unconditional. All rights, interests, agreements and obligations of the First Lien Collateral Agent and the First Lien Claimholders and the Second Lien Collateral Agent and the Second Lien Claimholders, respectively, hereunder shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of:

(a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any First Lien Documents or any Second Lien Documents or any setting aside or avoidance of any Lien on the Collateral;

(b) except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other terms of, all or any of the First Lien Obligations or Second Lien Obligations, or any amendment or waiver or other modification, including any increase in the amount thereof, whether by course of conduct or otherwise, of the terms of any First Lien Document or any Second Lien Document;

(b) Promptly upon (or as soon as practicable following) the commencement by the First Lien Collateral Agent of any enforcement action or the exercise of any remedy with respect to any Collateral (including by way of a public or private sale of Collateral), the First Lien Collateral Agent shall notify the Second Lien Collateral Agent of such action; provided that the failure to give any such notice shall not result in any liability of the First Lien Collateral Agent or the First Lien Claimholders hereunder or in the modification, alteration, impairment, or waiver of the rights of any party hereunder.

ARTICLE VIII
MISCELLANEOUS

SECTION 8.01 Inconsistencies with Other Documents. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between this Agreement and any First Lien Collateral Document or any Second Lien Collateral Document, the terms of this Agreement shall control. The parties hereto acknowledge that the terms of this Agreement are not intended (i) to negate any specific rights granted to the Company in the First Lien Documents and the Second Lien Documents or (ii) to negate the rights of the Collateral Agent (as defined in the Shared Collateral Agreement), the Note Trustee (as defined in the Shared Collateral Agreement) and/or the holders of the 2014 Notes with respect to assets of the Company and the Grantors (other than the Collateral) granted pursuant to the Indenture, the Shared Collateral Agreement or other Collateral Documents (as defined in the Shared Collateral Agreement).

SECTION 8.02 Effectiveness; Continuing Nature of this Agreement; Severability. This Agreement shall become effective when executed and delivered by the parties hereto. This is a continuing agreement of lien subordination and the First Lien Claimholders may continue, at any time and without notice to the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any Second Lien Claimholder subject to the Second Lien Documents, to extend credit and other financial accommodations and lend monies to or for the benefit of the Company or any Grantor constituting First Lien Obligations in reliance hereof, subject to the provisions of the First Lien Documents and the Second Lien Documents. The Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders), hereby waives any right it may have under applicable law to revoke this Agreement or any of the provisions of this Agreement, other than as set forth in this Agreement. This Agreement shall survive, and shall continue in full force and effect, in

any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. All references to the Company or any other Grantor shall include the Company or such Grantor as debtor and debtor-in-possession and any receiver or trustee for the Company or any other Grantor (as the case may be) in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. This Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect, (a) with respect to the Second Lien Collateral Agent, the Second Lien Claimholders and the Second Lien Obligations, upon the later of (i) the date upon which the obligations under the Indenture terminate and payment has been made in full in cash of all other Second Lien Obligations outstanding on such date and (ii) if there are other Second Lien Obligations outstanding on such date, the date upon which such Second Lien Obligations terminate and (b) with respect to the First Lien Collateral Agent, the First Lien Claimholders and the First Lien Obligations, the date of Discharge of First Lien Obligations, subject to the rights of the First Lien Claimholders under Section 5.06 and Section 6.05.

SECTION 8.03 Amendments; Waivers. No amendment, modification or waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement by the Second Lien Collateral Agent or the First Lien Collateral Agent shall be deemed to be made unless the same shall be in writing signed on behalf of each party hereto or its authorized agent and each waiver, if any, shall be a waiver only with respect to the specific instance involved and shall in no way impair the rights of the parties making such waiver or the obligations of the other parties to such party in any other respect or at any other time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Company nor any Grantor shall have any right to consent to or approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement except to the extent its rights or obligations are directly affected.

SECTION 8.04 Information Concerning Financial Condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

(a) The First Lien Collateral Agent and the First Lien Claimholders, on the one hand, and the Second Lien Claimholders and the Second Lien Collateral Agent, on the other hand, shall each be responsible for keeping themselves informed of (i) the financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries and all endorsers and/or guarantors of the First Lien Obligations or the Second Lien Obligations and (ii) all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the First Lien Obligations or the Second Lien Obligations. The First Lien Collateral Agent and the First Lien Claimholders shall have no duty to advise the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any Second Lien Claimholder of information known to it or them regarding such condition or any such circumstances or otherwise. In the event the First Lien Collateral Agent or any of the First Lien Claimholders, in its or their sole discretion, undertakes at any time or from time to time to provide any such information to the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any Second Lien Claimholder, it or they shall be under no obligation (w) to make, and the First Lien Collateral Agent and the First Lien Claimholders shall not make, any express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the accuracy, completeness, truthfulness or validity of any such information so provided, (x) to provide any additional information or to provide any such information on any subsequent occasion, (y) to undertake any investigation or

(z) to disclose any information which, pursuant to accepted or reasonable commercial finance practices, such party wishes to maintain confidential or is otherwise required to maintain confidential.

(b) The Grantors agree that any information provided to the First Lien Collateral Agent, the Second Lien Collateral Agent, the Control Agent, any First Lien Claimholder or any Second Lien Claimholder may be shared by such Person with any First Lien Claimholder, any Second Lien Claimholder, the Control Agent, the First Lien Collateral Agent or the Second Lien Collateral Agent notwithstanding a request or demand by such Grantor that such information be kept confidential.

SECTION 8.05 Subrogation. The Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders), hereby waives any rights of subrogation it may acquire as a result of any payment hereunder until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred.

SECTION 8.06 Application of Payments. All payments received by the First Lien Collateral Agent or the First Lien Claimholders with respect to the Collateral may be applied, reversed and reapplied, in whole or in part, to such part of the First Lien Obligations provided for in the First Lien Documents. The Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders), assents to any extension or postponement of the time of payment of the First Lien Obligations or any part thereof and to any other indulgence with respect thereto, to any substitution, exchange or release of any security which may at any time secure any part of the First Lien Obligations (it being understood that the First Lien Collateral Agent shall receive only assets of the type contemplated by the definition of “Collateral” in consideration for such substitution, exchange or release and that such assets shall be subject to the Lien of the Second Lien Collateral Agent) and to the addition or release of any other Person primarily or secondarily liable therefor.

SECTION 8.07 SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION.

(a) EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN, NEW YORK AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SITTING IN THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK AND ANY APPELLATE COURT THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURTS OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER FIRST LIEN DOCUMENT OR SECOND LIEN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT THE FIRST LIEN COLLATERAL

AGENT, THE SECOND LIEN COLLATERAL AGENT, ANY FIRST LIEN CLAIMHOLDER OR SECOND LIEN CLAIMHOLDER MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER FIRST LIEN DOCUMENT OR SECOND LIEN DOCUMENT AGAINST THE COMPANY OR ANY OTHER GRANTOR OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.

(b) EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN PARAGRAPH (A) OF THIS SECTION. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT.

(c) EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

A telephonic notice to the First Lien Collateral Agent or the Control Agent as understood by the First Lien Collateral Agent or the Control Agent will be deemed to be the controlling and proper notice in the event of a discrepancy with or failure to receive a confirming written notice.

SECTION 8.09 Further Assurances. The First Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the First Lien Claimholders) and the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders), and the Company agree that each of them shall take such further action and shall execute and deliver such additional documents and instruments (in recordable form, if requested) as the First Lien Collateral Agent or the Second Lien Collateral

Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 8.16 No Third Party Beneficiaries.

The provisions of this Agreement are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights with respect to the Collateral of the First Lien Claimholders on the one hand and the Second Lien Claimholders on the other hand.
