Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, unless and until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, except as expressly provided in the proviso in Section 3.01(a) and in Article VI, the sole right of the Junior Representatives and the Junior Secured Parties with respect to the Shared Collateral is to hold a Lien on the Shared Collateral in respect of Junior Obligations pursuant to the Junior Debt 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 Senior Obligations has occurred.

 

(c)               Subject to the proviso in Section 3.01(a), (i) each Junior Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Junior Secured Party under its Junior Debt Facility, agrees that neither such Junior Representative nor any such Junior Secured Party will take any action that would hinder or delay any exercise of remedies undertaken by the Designated Senior Representative, any other Senior Representative or any Senior Secured Party with respect to the Shared Collateral under the Senior Debt Documents, including any sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of the Shared Collateral, whether by foreclosure or otherwise, and (ii) each Junior Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Junior Secured Party under its Junior Debt Facility, hereby waives any and all rights it or any such Junior Secured Party may have as a junior lien creditor or otherwise to object to the manner in which the Designated Senior Representative, the other Senior Representatives or the Senior Secured Parties seek to enforce or collect the Senior Obligations or the Liens granted on any of the Senior Collateral, regardless of whether any action or failure to act by or on behalf of the Designated Senior Representative, any other Senior Representative or any other Senior Secured Party is adverse to the interests of the Junior Secured Parties.

 

(d)               Each Junior Representative hereby acknowledges and agrees that no covenant, agreement or restriction contained in any Junior Debt Document shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights and remedies of the Designated Senior Representative, the other Senior Representatives or the Senior Secured Parties with respect to the Senior Collateral as set forth in this Agreement and the Senior Debt Documents.

Following the Discharge of Senior Obligations, the Designated Junior Representative or any Person authorized by it shall have the exclusive right to exercise any right or remedy with respect to the Collateral and shall have the exclusive right to direct the time, method and place of exercising or conducting any proceeding for the exercise of any right or remedy available to the Junior Secured Parties with respect to the Collateral, or of exercising or directing the exercise of any trust or power conferred on the Junior Representatives, or for the taking of any other action authorized by the Junior Collateral Documents; provided, however, that nothing in this Section shall impair the right of any Junior Representative or other agent or trustee acting on behalf of the Junior Secured Parties to take such actions with respect to the Collateral after the Discharge of Senior Obligations as may be otherwise required or authorized pursuant to any intercreditor agreement governing the Junior Secured Parties or the Junior Obligations.

 

 

Section 3.02.         Cooperation. Subject to the proviso in Section 3.01(a), each Junior Representative, on behalf of itself and each Junior Secured Party under its Junior Debt Facility, agrees that, unless and until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, it will not commence, or join with any Person (other than the Senior Secured Parties and the Designated Senior Representative upon the request thereof) in commencing, any enforcement, collection, execution, levy or foreclosure action or proceeding with respect to any Lien held by it in the Shared Collateral under any of the Junior Debt Documents.

  

Section 3.03.         Actions upon Breach. Should any Junior Representative or any Junior Secured Party, contrary to this Agreement, in any way take, attempt to take or threaten to take any action with respect to the Shared Collateral (including 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 Designated Senior Representative or any other Senior Representative or other Senior Secured Party (in its or their own name or in the name of the Company or any other Grantor) or the Company may obtain relief against such Junior Representative or such Junior Secured Party by injunction, specific performance or other appropriate equitable relief. Each Junior Representative, on behalf of itself and each Junior Secured Party under its Junior Debt Facility, hereby (a) agrees that the Senior Secured Parties’ damages from the actions of the Junior Representatives or any Junior Secured Party may at that time be difficult to ascertain and may be irreparable and waives any defense that the Company, any other Grantor or the Senior Secured Parties cannot demonstrate damage or be made whole by the awarding of damages and (b) irrevocably waives any defense based on the adequacy of a remedy at law and any other defense that might be asserted to bar the remedy of specific performance in any action that may be brought by the Designated Senior Representative, any other Senior Representative or any Senior Secured Party.

Upon delivery to a Junior Representative of an Officer’s Certificate stating that any such termination and release of Liens securing the Senior Obligations has become effective (or shall become effective concurrently with such termination and release of the Liens granted to the Junior Secured Parties and the Junior Representatives) and any necessary or proper instruments of termination or release prepared by the Company or any other Centertainment Group Grantor, such Junior Representative will promptly execute, deliver or acknowledge, at the Company’s or the other Centertainment Group Grantor’s sole cost and expense, such instruments to evidence such termination and release of the Liens.

(d)              Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Junior Collateral Document, in the event the terms of a Senior Collateral Document and a Junior Collateral Document each require any Centertainment Group Grantor to (i) make payment in respect of any item of Shared Collateral, (ii) deliver or afford control over any item of Shared Collateral to, or deposit any item of Shared Collateral with, (iii) register ownership of any item of Shared Collateral in the name of or make an assignment of ownership of any Shared Collateral or the rights thereunder to, (iv) cause any securities intermediary, commodity intermediary or other Person acting in a similar capacity to agree to comply, in respect of any item of Shared Collateral, with instructions or orders from, or to treat, in respect of any item of Shared Collateral, as the entitlement holder, (v) hold any item of Shared Collateral in trust for (to the extent such item of Shared Collateral cannot be held in trust for multiple parties under applicable law), (vi) obtain the agreement of a bailee or other third party to hold any item of Shared Collateral for the benefit of or subject to the control of or, in respect of any item of Shared Collateral, to follow the instructions of or (vii) obtain the agreement of a landlord with respect to access to leased premises where any item of Shared Collateral is located or waivers or subordination of rights with respect to any item of Shared Collateral in favor of, in any case, both any Designated Senior Representative and any Junior Representative or Junior Secured Party, such Grantor may, until the applicable Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, comply with such requirement under the Junior Collateral Document as it relates to such Shared Collateral by taking any of the actions set forth above only with respect to, or in favor of, the Designated Senior Representative.

 

Section 5.02.         Insurance and Condemnation Awards. Unless and until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, the Designated Senior Representative and the Senior Secured Parties shall have the sole and exclusive right, subject to the rights of the Grantors under the Senior Debt Documents, (a) to adjust settlement for any insurance policy covering the Shared Collateral in the event of any loss thereunder and (b) to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding affecting the Shared Collateral. Unless and until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, all proceeds of any such policy and any such award, if in respect of the Shared Collateral, shall be paid (i) first, prior to the occurrence of the Discharge of Senior Obligations, to the Designated Senior Representative for the benefit of Senior Secured Parties pursuant to the terms of the Senior Debt Documents, (ii) second, after the occurrence of the Discharge of Senior Obligations, to the Designated Junior Representative for the benefit of the Junior Secured Parties pursuant to the terms of the applicable Junior Debt Documents and (iii) third, if no Senior Obligations or Junior Obligations are outstanding, to the owner of the subject property, such other Person as may be entitled thereto or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

In the event of any conflict between the terms of the First Lien/Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement and the terms of this Agreement, the terms of the First Lien/Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement shall govern.”

(c)               The Senior Debt Documents may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified in accordance with their terms without the consent of any Junior Secured Party; provided, however, that, without the consent of the Junior Representatives, no such amendment, restatement, supplement, modification or refinancing (or successive amendments, restatements, supplements, modifications or refinancings) shall contravene any provision of this Agreement.

Section 5.04.         Rights as Unsecured Creditors. The Junior Representatives and the Junior Secured Parties may exercise rights and remedies as unsecured creditors against the Company and any other Grantor in accordance with the terms of the Junior Debt Documents and applicable law so long as such rights and remedies do not violate and are not otherwise inconsistent with any provision of this Agreement. Unless otherwise set forth in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by any Junior Representative or any Junior Secured Party of the required payments of principal, premium, interest, fees and other amounts due under the Junior Debt Documents so long as such receipt is not the direct or indirect result of the exercise by a Junior Representative or any Junior Secured Party of rights or remedies as a creditor in respect of Shared Collateral. In the event any Junior Representative or any Junior Secured Party becomes a judgment lien creditor in respect of Shared Collateral as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor in respect of Junior Obligations, such judgment lien shall be subordinated to the Liens securing Senior Obligations on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Junior Obligations are so subordinated to such Liens securing Senior Obligations under this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall impair or otherwise adversely affect any rights or remedies the Designated Senior Representative, the other Senior Representatives or the Senior Secured Parties may have with respect to the Senior Collateral.

 

 

Section 5.05.         Gratuitous Bailee for Perfection.

  

(a)               Each Senior Representative acknowledges and agrees that if it shall at any time hold a Lien securing any Senior Obligations on any Shared Collateral that can be perfected by the possession or control of such Shared Collateral or of any account in which such Shared Collateral is held, and if such Shared Collateral or any such account is in fact in the possession or under the control of such Senior Representative, or of agents or bailees of such Senior Representative (such Shared Collateral being referred to herein as the “Pledged or Controlled Collateral”), or if it shall any time obtain any landlord waiver or bailee’s letter or any similar agreement or arrangement granting it rights or access to Shared Collateral, such Senior Representative shall also hold such Pledged or Controlled Collateral, or take such actions with respect to such landlord waiver, bailee’s letter or similar agreement or arrangement, as sub-agent or gratuitous bailee for the relevant Junior Representatives, in each case solely for the purpose of perfecting the Liens granted under the relevant Junior Collateral Documents and subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.05.

 

(b)               In the event that any Senior Representative (or its agents or bailees) has Lien filings against Intellectual Property that is part of the Shared Collateral that are necessary for the perfection of Liens in such Shared Collateral, such Senior Representative agrees to hold such Liens as sub-agent and gratuitous bailee for the relevant Junior Representatives and any assignee thereof, solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted in such Liens pursuant to the relevant Junior Collateral Documents, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.05.

 

(c)               Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, each Senior Representative shall be entitled to deal with the Pledged or Controlled Collateral in accordance with the terms of the Senior Debt Documents as if the Liens under the Junior Collateral Documents did not exist. The rights of the Junior Representatives and the Junior Secured Parties with respect to the Pledged or Controlled Collateral shall at all times be subject to the terms of this Agreement.

 

(d)               No Senior Representative shall have any obligation whatsoever to the Junior Representatives or any Junior Secured Party to assure that any of the Pledged or Controlled Collateral is genuine or owned by the Grantors or to protect or preserve rights or benefits of any Person or any rights pertaining to the Shared Collateral, except as expressly set forth in this Section 5.05. The duties or responsibilities of each Senior Representative under this Section 5.05 shall be limited solely to holding or controlling the Shared Collateral and the related Liens referred to in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 5.05 as sub-agent and gratuitous bailee for the relevant Junior Representative for purposes of perfecting the Lien held by such Junior Representative.

 

(e)               No Senior Representative shall have by reason of the Junior Collateral Documents or this Agreement, or any other document, a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Junior Representative or any Junior Secured Party, and each Junior Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Junior Secured Party under its Junior Debt Facility, hereby waives and releases each Senior Representative from all claims and liabilities arising pursuant to such Senior Representative’s role under this Section 5.05 as sub-agent and gratuitous bailee with respect to the Shared Collateral.

 

(f)                Upon the Discharge of Senior Obligations, each Senior Representative shall, at the Centertainment Group Grantors’ sole cost and expense, (i) (A) deliver to the Designated Junior Representative, to the extent that it is legally permitted to do so, all Shared Collateral, including all proceeds thereof, held or controlled by such Senior Representative or any of its agents or bailees, including the transfer of possession and control, as applicable, of the Pledged or Controlled Collateral, together with any necessary endorsements and notices to depositary banks, securities intermediaries and commodities intermediaries, and assign its rights under any landlord waiver or bailee’s letter or any similar agreement or arrangement granting it rights or access to Shared Collateral, or (B) direct and deliver such Shared Collateral as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct, (ii) notify any applicable insurance carrier that it is no longer entitled to be a loss payee or additional insured under the insurance policies of any Centertainment Group Grantor issued by such insurance carrier and (iii) notify any governmental authority involved in any condemnation or similar proceeding involving any Centertainment Group Grantor that the Designated Junior Representative is entitled to approve any awards granted in such proceeding.

No Senior Representative has any obligation to follow instructions from the Designated Junior Representative in contravention of this Agreement.

 

 

(g)              Neither the Designated Senior Representative nor any of the other Senior Representatives or Senior Secured Parties shall be required to marshal any present or future collateral security for any obligations of the Company or any other Grantor to the Designated Senior Representative, any other Senior Representative or any Senior Secured Party under the Senior Debt Documents or any assurance of payment in respect thereof, or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of their rights in respect of such collateral security or any assurance of payment in respect thereof shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights, however existing or arising.

If, at any time substantially concurrently with or after the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, the Company or any other Centertainment Group Grantor incurs any Senior Obligations (other than in respect of the payment of indemnities surviving the Discharge of Senior Obligations), then the Discharge of Senior 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 Senior Obligations) and the applicable agreement governing such Senior Obligations shall automatically be treated as a Senior Debt Document for all purposes of this Agreement, including for purposes of the Lien priorities and rights in respect of Shared Collateral set forth herein and the granting by the Designated Senior Representative of amendments, waivers and consents hereunder and the agent, representative or trustee for the holders of such Senior Obligations shall be a Senior Representative for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon receipt of notice of such incurrence (including the identity of the new Designated Senior Representative), each Junior Representative (including the Designated Junior Representative) shall promptly (a) enter into such documents and agreements (at the expense of the Company), including amendments or supplements to this Agreement, as the Company or such new Senior Representative shall reasonably request in writing in order to provide the new Senior Representative the rights of a Senior Representative contemplated hereby, (b) deliver to the Designated Senior Representative, to the extent that it is legally permitted to do so, all Shared Collateral, including all proceeds thereof, held or controlled by such Junior Representative or any of its agents or bailees, including the transfer of possession and control, as applicable, of the Pledged or Controlled Collateral, together with any necessary endorsements and notices to depositary banks, securities intermediaries and commodities intermediaries, and assign its rights under any landlord waiver or bailee’s letter or any similar agreement or arrangement granting it rights or access to Shared Collateral, (c) notify any applicable insurance carrier that it is no longer entitled to be a loss payee or additional insured under the insurance policies of any Centertainment Group Grantor issued by such insurance carrier and (d) notify any governmental authority involved in any condemnation or similar proceeding involving a Centertainment Group Grantor that the new Designated Senior Representative is entitled to approve any awards granted in such proceeding.

 

 

ARTICLE VI

 

Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings

 

Section 6.01.         Financing and Sale Issues. Until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, if the Company or any other Centertainment Group Grantor shall be subject to any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and the Designated Senior Representative shall desire to consent (or not object) to, as applicable, the sale, use or lease of cash or other collateral or to consent (or not object) to the Company’s or any other Centertainment Group Grantor’s obtaining financing under Section 363 or Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of any other Bankruptcy Law to be secured by the Senior Collateral (“DIP Financing”), then each Junior Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Junior Secured Party under its Junior Debt Facility, agrees that it will (as applicable) raise no objection to and will not otherwise contest such use of such cash or other collateral or such DIP Financing and, except solely to the extent permitted by Section 6.03, will not request adequate protection or any other relief in connection therewith and, to the extent the Liens securing the Senior Obligations are subordinated to or pari passu with such DIP Financing, will subordinate (and will be deemed hereunder to have subordinated) its Liens in the Shared Collateral to (x) such DIP Financing (and all obligations relating thereto) on the same basis as the Liens securing the Junior Obligations are so subordinated to Liens securing Senior Obligations under this Agreement, (y) any adequate protection Liens provided to the Senior Secured Parties, and (z) to any “carve-out” for professional and United States Trustee fees agreed to by the Designated Senior Representative. Until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, each Junior Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Junior Secured Party under its Junior Debt Facility, further agrees that it will (as applicable) raise no objection to and will not otherwise contest (a) any motion for relief from the automatic stay or from any injunction against foreclosure or enforcement in respect of Senior Obligations with respect to the Senior Collateral made by Designated Senior Representative, any other Senior Representative or any other Senior Secured Party, (b) any lawful exercise by any Senior Secured Party of the right to credit bid Senior Obligations at any sale of Senior Collateral (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision under any other applicable Bankruptcy Law) or to exercise any rights under Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of any other Bankruptcy Law with respect to the Senior Collateral, (c) any other request for judicial relief made in any court by any Senior Secured Party relating to the lawful enforcement of any Lien on Senior Collateral or (d) any sale or other disposition of any or all of the Senior Collateral for which the Designated Senior Representative has consented that provides, to the extent such sale or other disposition is to be free and clear of Liens, that the Liens securing the Senior Obligations and the Junior Obligations will attach to the proceeds of the sale on the same basis of priority as the Liens on the Shared Collateral securing the Senior Obligations rank to the Liens on the Shared Collateral securing the Junior Obligations pursuant to this Agreement; without limiting the foregoing, each Junior Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Junior Secured Party under its Junior Debt Facility, agrees that it may not raise any objections based on rights afforded by Section 363(e) or Section 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of any other Bankruptcy Law. In addition, the Junior Secured Parties are not deemed to have waived any rights to credit bid on the Shared Collateral in any such sale or disposition in accordance with Section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision under any other applicable Bankruptcy Law), so long as any such credit bid provides for the payment in full in cash of the Senior Obligations.

 

Section 6.02.         Relief from the Automatic Stay. Until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, each Junior Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Junior Secured Party under its Junior Debt Facility, agrees that none of them shall seek relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding with respect to any Centertainment Group Grantor or take any action in derogation thereof without the prior written consent of the Designated Senior Representative.

 

 

Section 6.03.         Adequate Protection. Each Junior Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Junior Secured Party under its Junior Debt Facility, agrees that none of them shall object, contest or support any other Person objecting to or contesting (a) any request by the Designated Senior Representative, the other Senior Representatives or the Senior Secured Parties for adequate protection in any form, (b) any objection by the Designated Senior Representative, the other Senior Representatives or the Senior Secured Parties to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on the Designated Senior Representative’s or any other Senior Representative’s or Senior Secured Party’s claiming a lack of adequate protection or (c) the allowance and/or payment (whether or not allowed or allowable in any Insolvency or Liqudiation Proceeding) of interest, fees, expenses, premiums (including make-whole premiums), and/or other amounts of the Designated Senior Representative, any other Senior Representative or any other Senior Secured Party, including, without limitation, as adequate protection or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 6.03 or in Section 6.01, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, (i) if the Senior Secured Parties (or any subset thereof) are granted adequate protection in the form of a Lien on additional or replacement collateral and/or a superpriority administrative expense claim in connection with any DIP Financing or use of cash collateral under Section 363 or 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of any other Bankruptcy Law, then each Junior Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Junior Secured Party under its Junior Debt Facility, may seek or request adequate protection in the form of (as applicable) a Lien on such additional or replacement collateral and/or a superpriority administrative expense claim, which Lien and/or superpriority administrative expense claim (as applicable) is subordinated to the Liens securing and providing adequate protection for, and claims with respect to, the Senior Obligations and such DIP Financing (and all obligations relating thereto) on the same basis as the other Liens securing and claims with respect to the Junior Obligations are so subordinated to the Liens securing and claims with respect to the Senior Obligations under this Agreement and (ii) in the event any Junior Representatives, for themselves and on behalf of the Junior Secured Parties under their Junior Debt Facilities, seek or request adequate protection and such adequate protection is granted in the form of (as applicable) a Lien on additional or replacement collateral and/or a superpriority administrative expense claim, then such Junior Representatives, for themselves and on behalf of each Junior Secured Party under their Junior Debt Facilities, agree that the Senior Representatives shall also be granted (as applicable) a senior Lien on such additional or replacement collateral as security and adequate protection for the Senior Obligations and/or a senior superpriority administrative expense claim, and that any Lien on such additional or replacement collateral securing or providing adequate protection for the Junior Obligations and/or superpriority administrative expense claim shall be subordinated to the Liens on such collateral securing and claims with respect to the Senior Obligations and any such DIP Financing (and all obligations relating thereto) and any other Liens and claims granted to the Senior Secured Parties as adequate protection on the same basis as the other Liens securing and claims with respect to the Junior Obligations are so subordinated to such Liens securing and claims with respect to Senior Obligations under this Agreement.

  

Section 6.04.         Preference Issues. If any Senior Secured Party is required in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise to disgorge, turn over or otherwise pay any amount to the estate of the Company or any other Grantor (or any trustee, receiver or similar Person therefor), because the payment of such amount was declared to be or avoided as fraudulent or preferential in any respect or for any other reason, any amount (a “Recovery”), whether received as proceeds of security, enforcement of any right of setoff, recoupment or otherwise, then the Senior Obligations shall be reinstated to the extent of such Recovery and deemed to be outstanding as if such payment had not occurred and the Senior Secured Parties shall still be entitled to a future Discharge of Senior 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. Each Junior Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Junior Secured Party under its Junior Debt Facility, hereby agrees that none of them shall be entitled to benefit from any avoidance action affecting or otherwise relating to any distribution or allocation made in accordance with this Agreement, whether by preference or otherwise, 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.

 

Section 6.05.         Separate Grants of Security and Separate Classifications. Each Junior Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Junior Secured Party under its Junior Debt Facility, acknowledges and agrees that (a) the grants of Liens pursuant to the Senior Collateral Documents and the Junior Collateral Documents constitute separate and distinct grants of Liens, (b) the Junior Secured Parties’ claims against the Grantors in respect of their Liens on the Shared Collateral constitute junior claims separate and apart (and of a different class) from the senior claims of the Senior Secured Parties against the Grantors in respect of the Shared Collateral, and (c) because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Shared Collateral, the Junior Obligations are fundamentally different from the Senior Obligations and must be separately classified in any Plan of Reorganization proposed, confirmed, or adopted in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of any Centertainment Group Grantor. To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, if it is held that the claims of the Senior Secured Parties and the Junior Secured Parties in respect of the Shared Collateral constitute only a single class of claims (rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims), then each Junior Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Junior Secured Party under its Junior Debt Facility, hereby acknowledges and agrees that all distributions from the Shared Collateral shall be made as if there were separate classes of senior and junior secured claims against the Grantors in respect of the Shared Collateral (with the effect being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the Shared Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the Junior Secured Parties), the Senior Secured Parties shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them in respect of principal and pre-petition interest, all amounts owing in respect of post-petition interest, fees, premiums (including make-whole premiums), and expenses (whether or not allowed or allowable in such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding) before any distribution is made in respect of the Junior Obligations), with each Junior Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Junior Secured Party under its Junior Debt Facility, hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the Designated Senior Representative amounts otherwise received or receivable by them from or on account of the Shared Collateral to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing the claim or recovery of the Junior Secured Parties. This Section 6.05 is intended to govern the relationship between the classes of claims held by the Junior Secured Parties, on the one hand, and a class of claims comprised of the Senior Credit Agreement Secured Parties, on the other hand, in respect of the Shared Collateral.

 

  

Section 6.06.         No Waivers of Rights of Senior Secured Parties. Nothing contained herein shall, except as expressly provided herein, prohibit or in any way limit the Designated Senior Representative, any other Senior Representative or any other Senior Secured Party from objecting in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise to any action taken by any Junior Secured Party, including the seeking by any Junior Secured Party of adequate protection or the asserting by any Junior Secured Party of any of its rights and remedies under the Junior Debt Documents or otherwise.

 

Section 6.07.         Application. This Agreement, which the parties hereto expressly acknowledge is a “subordination agreement” under Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of any other Bankruptcy Law, shall be effective before, during and after the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. The relative rights set forth herein shall continue after the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding on the same basis as prior to the date of the petition therefor, subject to any court order approving the financing of, or use of cash collateral by, any Grantor. All references herein to any Grantor shall include such Grantor as a debtor-in-possession and any receiver or trustee for such Grantor.

 

Section 6.08.         Other Matters. To the extent that any Junior Representative or any Junior Secured Party has or acquires rights under Section 363 or Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of any other Bankruptcy Law, such Junior Representative, on behalf of itself and each Junior Secured Party under its Junior Debt Facility, agrees not to assert any such rights without the prior written consent of the Designated Senior Representative.

 

Section 6.09.         506(c) Claims. Until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, each Junior Representative, on behalf of itself and each Junior Secured Party under its Junior Debt Facility, agrees that it will not assert or enforce any claim under Section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of any other Bankruptcy Law senior to or on a parity with the Liens securing the Senior Obligations for costs or expenses of preserving or disposing of any Shared Collateral or other collateral for the Senior Obligations.

 

Section 6.10.         Reorganization Securities. Without limitation of the provisions of Section 4.01, if, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of any Centertainment Group Grantor, debt obligations of the reorganized debtor secured by Liens upon any property of the reorganized debtor are distributed pursuant to a Plan of Reorganization on account of both the Senior Obligations and the Junior Obligations, then, to the extent the debt obligations distributed on account of the Senior Obligations and on account of the Junior Obligations are secured Liens upon the same assets or properties (or any obligor thereon holds any Deemed Collateral or assets of the type included in the definition of “Deemed Collateral”), the provisions of this Agreement (including Article VIII hereof with respect to the Restricted Group Collateral) 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 (and to such Deemed Collateral or assets).

 

  

Section 6.11.         Post-Petition Interest. None of the Junior Representatives or any other Junior Secured Party shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by any Senior Representative or any Senior Secured Party for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of any Centertainment Group Grantor of Senior Obligations consisting of claims for post-petition interest, fees, costs, expenses, premiums (including make-whole premiums) and/or other charges, under Section 506(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise (for this purpose ignoring all claims and Liens held by the Junior Secured Parties on the Shared Collateral).

 

Section 6.12.         Plan Voting. No Junior Representative or any other Junior Secured Party (whether in the capacity of a secured creditor or an unsecured creditor) may propose, support, or vote in favor of any Plan of Reorganization (and each shall be deemed to have voted to reject any Plan of Reorganization) that is inconsistent with, or in violation of, the terms of this Agreement unless such plan (a) pays off, in cash in full, all Senior Obligations or (b) is accepted by the class of holders of Senior Obligations voting thereon in accordance with Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code.

 

ARTICLE VII

 

Reliance; etc.

 

Section 7.01.         Reliance. The consent by the Senior Secured Parties to the execution and delivery of the Junior Debt Documents to which the Senior Secured Parties have consented and all loans and other extensions of credit made or deemed made on and after the date hereof by the Senior Secured Parties to AMC or any of its subsidiaries shall be deemed to have been given and made in reliance upon this Agreement. Each Junior Representative, on behalf of itself and each Junior Secured Party under its Junior Debt Facility, acknowledges that it and such Junior Secured Parties have, independently and without reliance on the Designated Senior Representative or any other Senior Representative or other Senior Secured Party, and based on documents and information deemed by them appropriate, made their own credit analysis and decision to enter into the Junior Debt Documents to which they are party or by which they are bound, this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and they will continue to make their own credit decision in taking or not taking any action under the Junior Debt Documents or this Agreement.

 

Section 7.02.         No Warranties or Liability. Each Junior Representative, on behalf of itself and each Junior Secured Party under its Junior Debt Facility, acknowledges and agrees that neither the Designated Senior Representative nor any other Senior Representative or other Senior Secured Party has made any express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the execution, validity, legality, completeness, collectability or enforceability of any of the Senior Debt Documents, the ownership of any Shared Collateral or the perfection or priority of any Liens thereon. The Senior Secured Parties will be entitled to manage and supervise their respective loans and extensions of credit under the Senior Debt Documents in accordance with law and as they may otherwise, in their sole discretion, deem appropriate, and the Senior Secured Parties may manage their loans and extensions of credit without regard to any rights or interests that the Junior Representatives and the Junior Secured Parties have in the Shared Collateral or otherwise, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. Neither the Designated Senior Representative nor any other Senior Representative or other Senior Secured Party shall have any duty to any Junior Representative or Junior Secured Party to act or refrain from acting in a manner that allows, or results in, the occurrence or continuance of an event of default or default under any agreement with AMC or any of its subsidiaries (including the Junior Debt Documents), regardless of any knowledge thereof that they may have or be charged with. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Designated Senior Representative, the other Senior Representatives, the Senior Secured Parties, the Junior Representatives and the Junior Secured Parties have not otherwise made to each other, nor do they hereby make to each other, any warranties, express or implied, nor do they assume any liability to each other with respect to (a) the enforceability, validity, value or collectability of any of the Senior Obligations, the Junior Obligations or any guarantee or security which may have been granted to any of them in connection therewith, (b) any Grantor’s title to or right to transfer any of the Shared Collateral or (c) any other matter except as expressly set forth in this Agreement.

 

 

Section 7.03.         Obligations Unconditional. All rights, interests, agreements and obligations of the Designated Senior Representative, the other Senior Representatives, the Senior Secured Parties, the Junior Representatives and the Junior Secured Parties hereunder shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of:

 

(a)               any lack of validity or enforceability of any Senior Debt Document or any Junior Debt Document;

 

(b)               any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other terms of, all or any of the Senior Obligations or Junior 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 Senior Debt Document or of the terms of any Junior Debt Document;

 

(c)               any exchange of any security interest in any Shared Collateral or any other collateral or any amendment, waiver or other modification, whether in writing or by course of conduct or otherwise, of all or any of the Senior Obligations or Junior Obligations or any guarantee thereof;

 

(d)               the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Company or any other Grantor; or

 

(e)               any other circumstances that otherwise might constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, (i) the Company or any other Grantor in respect of the Senior Obligations or (ii) any Junior Representative or Junior Secured Party in respect of this Agreement.

 

ARTICLE VIII

 

Turnover Provision

 

Section 8.01.         Turnover Provision. Notwithstanding anything contained herein or in any other Debt Document to the contrary, after an event of default under any Senior Debt Document has occurred and until such event of default is cured or waived, so long as the Discharge of Senior Obligations has not occurred (after the occurrence of which this Section 8.01 shall no longer be operative), (x) any Restricted Group Shared Collateral, (y) any Proceeds thereof or (z) any distributions received on account of the Junior Obligations from the Restricted Group (whether or not on account of Restricted Group Shared Collateral) (i) in connection with the sale or other disposition of, or collection on, any of the foregoing (x) through (z) or (ii) in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of any member of the Restricted Group (including any adequate protection payments) or otherwise, in each case (x) through (z), received by any Junior Secured Party or Junior Representative shall be segregated from the other funds and property of such Junior Secured Party or Junior Representative, as the case may be, and received and held in trust by such Junior Secured Party or Junior Representative, as the case may be, as trustee, and shall be forthwith paid over, in the same form as received, with any necessary endorsements (but without any express or implied representation or warranty), and applied (i) FIRST, to the payment of all amounts owing to each Senior Representative (in its capacity as such) pursuant to the terms of the applicable Senior Debt Documents, and (ii) SECOND, until the Discharge of Senior Obligations, to the payment in full of the Senior Obligations of each Series on a ratable basis, with such amounts to be applied to the Senior Obligations of a given Series in accordance with the terms of the applicable Senior Debt Documents; the foregoing turnover provision shall apply to all cash and any other assets removed from any premises of any member of the Restricted Group by or on behalf of Junior Representative or otherwise received by or on behalf of Junior Representative in any manner, in each case, in connection with any enforcement action. After the Discharge of Senior Obligations, this turnover provision shall no longer apply.

 

 

ARTICLE IX.

 

Miscellaneous

 

Section 9.01.         Conflicts. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of any Senior Debt Document or any Junior Debt Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the relative rights and obligations of the Junior Representatives and the Junior Secured Parties (as amongst themselves) with respect to any Junior Collateral shall be governed by the terms of the Junior Lien Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement and in the event of any conflict between the Junior Lien Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, with respect to the Junior Representatives and the Junior Secured Parties (as amongst themselves), the provisions of the Junior Lien Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement shall control, in each case as applicable.

 

Section 9.02.         Continuing Nature of this Agreement; Severability. Subject to Section 5.06 and Section 6.04, this Agreement shall continue to be effective until the Discharge of Senior Obligations shall have occurred. This is a continuing agreement of Lien subordination, and the Senior Secured Parties may continue, at any time and without notice to the Junior Representatives or any Junior Secured Party, to extend credit and other financial accommodations and lend monies to or for the benefit of the Company or any other Grantor constituting Senior Obligations in reliance hereon. The terms of this Agreement shall survive and continue in full force and effect in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

 

Section 9.03.         Amendments; Waivers.

 

(a)               No failure or delay on the part of any party hereto in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the parties hereto are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice or demand on any party hereto in any case shall entitle such party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

 

(b)              Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be terminated, waived, amended or modified (other than pursuant to any Joinder Agreement) except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by each Representative (and with respect to any such termination, waiver, amendment or modification which by the terms of this Agreement requires the Company’s consent or which increases the obligations or reduces the rights of the Company or any other Grantor, with the consent of the Company).

 

(c)               Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent of any Secured Party, any Representative may become a party hereto by execution and delivery of a Joinder Agreement in accordance with Section 9.09 of this Agreement and upon such execution and delivery, such Representative and the Secured Parties and Senior Obligations or Junior Obligations of the Debt Facility for which such Representative is acting shall be subject to the terms hereof.

 

 

(d)              Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent of any other Representative or Secured Party, the Designated Senior Representative may effect amendments and modifications to this Agreement to the extent necessary to reflect any incurrence of any Additional Junior Debt Obligations in compliance with the Senior Credit Agreement, the Exchangeable Notes Indenture and any Additional Junior Debt Documents.

  

Section 9.04.         Information Concerning Financial Condition of the Company and the other Grantors. The Designated Senior Representative, the other Senior Representatives, the Senior Secured Parties, the Designated Junior Representative, the other Junior Representatives and the Junior Secured Parties shall each be responsible for keeping themselves informed of (a) the financial condition of the Company and the other Grantors and all endorsers or guarantors of the Senior Obligations or the Junior Obligations and (b) all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Senior Obligations or the Junior Obligations. The Designated Senior Representative, the other Senior Representatives, the Senior Secured Parties, the Designated Junior Representative, the other Junior Representatives and the Junior Secured Parties shall have no duty to advise any other party hereunder of information known to it or them regarding such condition or any such circumstances or otherwise. In the event that the Designated Senior Representative, any other Senior Representative, any Senior Secured Party, any Designated Junior Representative, any other Junior Representative or any Junior Secured Party, in its sole discretion, undertakes at any time or from time to time to provide any such information to any other party, it shall be under no obligation to (i) make, and the Designated Senior Representative, the other Senior Representatives, the Senior Secured Parties, the Designated Junior Representative, the other Junior Representatives and the Junior Secured Parties shall not make or be deemed to have made, any express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the accuracy, completeness, truthfulness or validity of any such information so provided, (ii) provide any additional information or to provide any such information on any subsequent occasion, (iii) undertake any investigation or (iv) disclose any information that, pursuant to accepted or reasonable commercial finance practices, such party wishes to maintain confidential or is otherwise required to maintain confidential.

 

Section 9.05.         Subrogation. Each Junior Representative, on behalf of itself and each Junior Secured Party under its Junior Debt Facility, hereby agrees not to assert any rights of subrogation it may acquire as a result of any payment hereunder until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred.

 

Section 9.06.         Application of Payments. Except as otherwise provided herein, all payments received by the Senior Secured Parties may be applied, reversed and reapplied, in whole or in part, to such part of the Senior Obligations as the Senior Secured Parties, in their sole discretion, deem appropriate, consistent with the terms of the Senior Debt Documents. Except as otherwise provided herein, each Junior Representative, on behalf of itself and each Junior Secured Party under its Junior Debt Facility, assents to any such extension or postponement of the time of payment of the Senior Obligations or any part thereof and to any other indulgence with respect thereto, to any substitution, exchange or release of any security that may at any time secure any part of the Senior Obligations and to the addition or release of any other Person primarily or secondarily liable therefor.

 

Section 9.07.         Additional Grantors. AMC agrees that, if any subsidiary of AMC shall become a Grantor after the date hereof, it will promptly cause such subsidiary to become party hereto by executing and delivering an instrument in the form of ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇. Upon such execution and delivery, such subsidiary will become a Grantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Grantor herein. The execution and delivery of such instrument shall not require the consent of any other party hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Grantor as a party to this Agreement.

 

Section 9.08.         Dealings with Grantors. Upon any application or demand by the Company or any Grantor to the Designated Senior Representative or the Designated Junior Representative to take or permit any action under any of the provisions of this Agreement or under any Collateral Document (if such action is subject to the provisions hereof), any such Company or Grantor, as appropriate, shall furnish to the Designated Junior Representative or the Designated Senior Representative a certificate of an appropriate officer (an “Officer’s Certificate”) stating that all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Agreement or such Collateral Document, as the case may be, relating to the proposed action have been complied with, except that in the case of any such application or demand as to which the furnishing of such documents is specifically required by any provision of this Agreement or any Collateral Document relating to such particular application or demand, no additional certificate or opinion need be furnished.

 

  

Section 9.09.         Additional Debt Facilities. To the extent, but only to the extent, permitted by the provisions of the then-extant Senior Debt Documents and the Junior Debt Documents, the Company or any other Grantor may incur or issue and sell one or more series or classes of Additional Junior Debt. Any such additional class or series of Additional Junior Debt (the “Junior Class Debt”) may be secured by a junior priority, subordinated Lien on Shared Collateral, in each case under and pursuant to the Junior Collateral Documents for such Junior Class Debt, if and subject to the condition that the Representative of any such Junior Class Debt (each, a “Junior Class Debt Representative”), acting on behalf of the holders of such Junior Class Debt (such Representative and holders in respect of any such Junior Class Debt being referred to as the “Junior Class Debt Parties”), becomes a party to this Agreement by satisfying the conditions set forth in clauses (i) through (v), as applicable, of this Section 9.09. In order for a Junior Class Debt Representative to become a party to this Agreement:

 

(i)            such Junior Class Debt Representative shall have executed and delivered a Joinder Agreement to the Designated Senior Representative and the Designated Junior Representative substantially in the form of ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ (with such changes as may be reasonably approved by the Designated Senior Representative and such Junior Class Debt Representative) pursuant to which it becomes a Representative hereunder, and the Junior Class Debt in respect of which such Junior Class Debt Representative is the Representative and the related Junior Class Debt Parties become subject hereto and bound hereby;

 

(ii)           the Company shall have delivered to the Designated Senior Representative and the Designated Junior Representative true and complete copies of each of the Junior Debt Documents relating to such Junior Class Debt, certified as being true and correct by a Responsible Officer of the Company;

 

(iii)           in the case of any Junior Class Debt, all filings, recordations and/or amendments or supplements to the Junior Collateral Documents necessary to confirm and perfect the junior priority Liens securing the relevant Junior Obligations relating to such Junior Class Debt shall have been made, executed and/or delivered (or, with respect to any such filings or recordations, acceptable provisions to perform such filings or recordings have been taken in the reasonable judgment of the Designated Junior Representative), and all fees and taxes in connection therewith shall have been paid (or acceptable provisions to make such payments have been taken in the reasonable judgment of the Designated Senior Representative);

 

(iv)          the Company shall have delivered to the Designated Senior Representative and the Designated Junior Representative an Officer’s Certificate stating that such Additional Junior Debt Obligations are permitted by each applicable Junior Debt Document to be incurred, or to the extent a consent is otherwise required to permit the incurrence of such Additional Junior Debt Obligations under any applicable Junior Debt Document, the relevant Grantors have obtained the requisite consent; and

 

(v)           the Junior Debt Documents relating to such Junior Class Debt shall provide, in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Designated Senior Representative, that each Junior Class Debt Party with respect to such Junior Class Debt will be subject to and bound by the provisions of this Agreement in its capacity as a holder of such Junior Class Debt.

 

 

Section 9.10.         Consent to Jurisdiction; Waivers. The Designated Senior Representative and each other Representative, on behalf of itself and the Secured Parties of the Debt Facility for which it is acting, irrevocably and unconditionally:

 

(a)               submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County, the courts of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York, and appellate courts from any thereof;

Section 2.         The New Representative represents and warrants to the Designated Senior Representative, the Designated Junior Representative and the other Secured Parties that (i) it has full power and authority to enter into this Joinder, in its capacity as [agent][trustee] under [describe new Junior Debt Facility], (ii) this Joinder has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by it and constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with the terms of such Agreement and (iii) the Junior Debt Documents relating to such Junior Class Debt provide that, upon the New Representative’s entry into this Agreement, the Junior Class Debt Parties in respect of such Junior Class Debt will be subject to and bound by the provisions of the First Lien/Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement as Junior Secured Parties.

 

 

Section 3.         This Joinder may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall become effective when the Designated Senior Representative shall have received a counterpart of this ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ that bears the signature of the New Representative.

Section 5.        THIS JOINDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

Section 7.         In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Joinder should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, no party hereto shall be required to comply with such provision for so long as such provision is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, but the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and in the First Lien/Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired. The parties hereto shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.
