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

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

(c) the Collateral Trustee will not be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of the Borrower or any Grantor.

Section 3.20 No Liability for Clean Up of Hazardous Materials. In the event that the Collateral Trustee is required to acquire title to an asset for any reason, or take any managerial action of any kind in regard thereto, in order to carry out any trust obligation for the benefit of another, which in the Collateral Trustee’s sole discretion may cause the Collateral Trustee to be considered an “owner or operator” under any environmental laws or otherwise cause the Collateral Trustee to incur, or be exposed to, any environmental liability or any liability under any other federal, state or local law, the Collateral Trustee reserves the right, instead of taking such action, either to immediately resign as Collateral Trustee or to arrange for the transfer of the title or control of the asset to a court appointed receiver. The Collateral Trustee will not be liable to any Person for any environmental liability or any environmental claims or contribution actions under any federal, state or local law, rule or regulation by reason of the Collateral Trustee’s actions or inactions and conduct as authorized, empowered and directed hereunder or relating to any kind of discharge or release or threatened discharge or release of any hazardous materials into the environment.

The Priority Debt Representatives and the holders of the Priority Obligations acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, MUFG Union Bank, N.A. or its Affiliates (and any successor Collateral Trustee and its Affiliates) may receive information regarding the Borrower or any Grantor or their Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Borrower, such Grantor or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that the Collateral Trustee shall not be under any obligation to provide such information to the Priority Debt Representatives or the holders of the Priority Obligations. Nothing herein shall impose or imply any obligation on the part of MUFG Union Bank, N.A. (or any successor Collateral Trustee) to advance funds.

Section 3.22 Resignation or Removal of the Collateral Trustee. Subject to the appointment of a successor Collateral Trustee as provided in Section 3.23 and the acceptance of such appointment by the successor Collateral Trustee:

(a) the Collateral Trustee may resign at any time by giving not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of resignation to each Priority Debt Representative and the Borrower; and

(b) the Collateral Trustee may be removed at any time, with or without cause, by the Controlling Priority Debt Representative.

Section 3.23 Appointment of Successor Collateral Trustee. Upon any such resignation or removal, a successor Collateral Trustee may be appointed by the Controlling Priority Debt Representative. The Collateral Trustee will fulfill its obligations under this

Agreement until a successor Collateral Trustee meeting the requirements of this Section 3.23 has accepted its appointment as Collateral Trustee and the provisions of Section 3.24 have been satisfied. If no successor Collateral Trustee has been so appointed and accepted such appointment within 30 days after the predecessor Collateral Trustee gave notice of resignation or was removed, the retiring Collateral Trustee may (at the expense of the Borrower), at its option, appoint a successor Collateral Trustee, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction for appointment of a successor Collateral Trustee, which must be a bank or trust company:

(a) authorized to exercise corporate trust powers;

(b) having a combined capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000;

(d) that is not the Borrower or any of its Affiliates.

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

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

(c) thereafter the predecessor Collateral Trustee will remain entitled to enforce the immunities granted to it in this Agreement and the provisions of Section 11.17 and Section 11.18, and said provisions will survive termination of this Agreement for the benefit of the predecessor of the Collateral Trustee. The predecessor Collateral Trustee shall have no liability whatsoever for the actions or inactions of the successor Collateral Trustee.

Section 3.25 Merger, Conversion or Consolidation of Collateral Trustee. Any Person into which the Collateral Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Collateral Trustee shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Collateral Trustee shall be the successor of the Collateral Trustee pursuant to Section 3.24, provided that (a) without the execution or filing of any paper with any party hereto or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, except where an instrument of transfer or assignment is required by law to effect such succession, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, such Person satisfies the eligibility requirements specified in Section 3.23 and (b) prior to any such merger, conversion or consolidation, the Collateral Trustee shall have notified the Borrower and each Priority Debt Representative thereof in writing.

Section 3.26 Concerning the Collateral Trustee and the Priority Debt Representatives.

(a) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, it is expressly understood and agreed by the parties hereto that this Agreement has been signed by each Priority Debt Representative not in its individual capacity or personally but solely in its capacity as trustee, representative or agent for the benefit of the related holders of the applicable Priority Obligations in the exercise of the powers and authority conferred and vested in it under the related Priority Debt Documents, and in no event shall such Priority Debt Representative, in its individual capacity, have any liability for the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or other obligations of any other party under this Agreement, any Priority Debt Document or in any of the certificates, reports, documents, data notices or agreements delivered by such other party pursuant hereto or thereto. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, each Priority Debt Representative will be entitled to all of the rights, privileges, protections, immunities, benefits and indemnities set forth in the Priority Debt Documents governing the applicable Priority Obligations for which such Person is acting or will act as Priority Debt Representative, in each case as if specifically set forth herein.

(b) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, it is expressly understood and agreed by the parties hereto that this Agreement has been signed by MUFG Union Bank, N.A., not in its individual capacity or personally but in its capacity as Collateral Trustee, and in no event shall MUFG Union Bank, N.A., in its individual capacity, have any liability for the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or other obligations of any other party under this Agreement, any Priority Debt Document or in any of the certificates, reports, documents, data notices or agreements delivered by such other party pursuant hereto or thereto.

(c) In entering into this Agreement, the Collateral Trustee shall be entitled to the benefit of every provision of the Priority Debt Documents relating to the rights, exculpations or conduct of, affecting the liability of or otherwise affording protection to the “administrative Agent” or “Collateral Trustee” thereunder. In no event will the Collateral Trustee be liable for any act or omission on the part of the Grantors, any other Priority Debt Representative or any Priority Debt Secured Party.

(d) Except as otherwise set forth herein, neither the Collateral Trustee nor any Priority Debt Representative shall be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) solely upon the written instructions of the applicable Priority Debt Representative as provided herein; provided that neither the Collateral Trustee nor any Priority Debt Representative shall be required to take any action that (i) it in good faith believes exposes it to personal liability unless it receives an indemnification satisfactory to it from the applicable holders of the Priority Obligations with respect to such action or (ii) is contrary to this Agreement, the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement or applicable law.

ARTICLE IV

PARI PASSU LIENS

Section 4.01 Lien Priorities.

(a) The grant of the Revolver Liens pursuant to the Revolver Documents and the grant of the Term Loan Liens pursuant to the Term Loan Documents create two separate and distinct Liens of equal priority on the Shared Collateral for the equal and ratable benefit of the holders of all previously existing and future Priority Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary in this Agreement, the Term Loan Agent hereby acknowledges and agrees (on behalf of the Term Loan Secured Parties) that the Term Loan Secured Parties (and not the Revolver Secured Parties) bear the risk of any determination by a court of competent jurisdiction that (w) the Term Loan Obligations do not constitute “Priority Lien Obligations” under (and as defined in) the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement, (x) any of the Term Loan Obligations are unenforceable under applicable law or are subordinated to any other obligations (including the Second Lien Obligations (as defined in the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement)), (y) any of the Term Loan Obligations do not have an enforceable security interest in any of the Shared Collateral securing such Term Loan Obligations and/or (z) any intervening security interest exists securing any other obligations (including the Second Lien Obligations (as defined in the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement)) on a basis ranking prior to the security interest of such Term Loan Obligations or (any such condition referred to in the foregoing clauses (w), (x), (y) or (z) with respect to any Term Loan Obligations, an “Impairment” of such Term Loan Obligations). In the event of any Impairment with respect to any Term Loan Obligations, the results of such Impairment shall be borne solely by the holders of such Term Loan Obligations, and the rights of the holders of such Term Loan Obligations (including the right to receive distributions in respect of such Term Loan Obligations pursuant to Section 8.01 or the right to equal and ratable liens on the Shared Collateral to the extent the Impairment relates to the Term Loan Liens) set forth herein shall be modified to the extent necessary so that the effects of such Impairment are borne solely by the holders of the Term Loan Obligations subject to such Impairment. The Revolver Agent, on behalf of the Revolver Secured Parties, agrees the Revolver Secured Parties shall not commence or support any judicial proceeding seeking an Impairment.

(b) Subject in all respects to Section 8.01, notwithstanding the date, time, method, manner or order of grant, attachment or perfection of any Liens securing any Priority Obligations granted on the Shared Collateral and notwithstanding any provision of the Uniform Commercial Code of any jurisdiction, or any other applicable law or the Priority Debt Documents or any defect or deficiencies in the Liens securing the Priority Obligations or any other circumstance whatsoever, each Priority Secured Party hereby agrees that the Liens securing each Priority Obligation on any Shared Collateral shall be of equal priority.

(c) It is acknowledged that (i) the aggregate amount of the Revolver Obligations may be increased from time to time pursuant to the terms of the Revolver Documents, (ii) a portion of the Revolver Obligations consists or may consist of indebtedness that is revolving in nature, and the amount thereof that may be outstanding at any time or from time to time may be increased or reduced and subsequently reborrowed or refinanced, and (iii) (A) the Revolver Documents may be replaced, restated, supplemented, restructured refinanced or

otherwise amended or modified from time to time and (B) the Revolver Obligations may be increased, extended, renewed, replaced, restated, supplemented, restructured, repaid, refunded, refinanced or otherwise amended or modified from time to time, in the case of the foregoing (A) and (B) all without affecting the payment priorities of the Term Loan Liens hereunder or the provisions of this Agreement defining the relative rights of the Revolver Secured Parties and the Term Loan Secured Parties. The lien priorities provided for herein shall not be altered or otherwise affected by any amendment, modification, supplement, extension, increase, renewal, restatement or Replacement of either the Revolver Obligations (or any part thereof) or the Term Loan Obligations (or any part thereof), by the release of any Shared Collateral or of any guarantees for any Revolver Obligations or by any action that any Priority Debt Representative or Priority Secured Party may take or fail to take in respect of any Shared Collateral.

Section 4.02 Prohibition on Marshalling, Etc. The Term Loan Agent will not assert any marshalling, appraisal, valuation, or other similar right in respect of the Shared Collateral.

Section 4.03 No New Liens. The parties hereto agree that, so long as the Discharge of Revolver Obligations has not occurred, none of the Grantors shall, nor shall any Grantor permit any of its subsidiaries to, (a) grant or permit any additional Liens on any asset of a Grantor to secure any Term Loan Obligation, or take any action to perfect any additional Liens, unless it has granted, or substantially concurrently therewith grants (or offers to grant), a Lien on such asset of such Grantor to secure the Revolver Obligations and has taken all actions required to perfect such Liens; or (b) grant or permit any additional Liens on any asset of a Grantor to secure any Revolver Obligation, or take any action to perfect any additional Liens, unless it has granted, or substantially concurrently therewith grants (or offers to grant), a Lien on such asset of such Grantor to secure the Term Loan Obligations and has taken all actions required to perfect such Liens. Any liens granted in accordance with this Section 4.03 shall be granted in favor of the Collateral Trustee and subject to the terms of this Agreement. To the extent that the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence are not complied with for any reason, or should any Lien upon any Shared Collateral be released or become unperfected due to breach of this Agreement or due to inadvertence, neglect or error by any of the Priority Secured Parties, without limiting any other right or remedy available to the Collateral Trustee, the Revolver Agent or the other Revolver Secured Parties, the Term Loan Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other Term Loan Secured Parties, agrees that any amounts received by or distributed to any Term Loan Secured Party pursuant to or as a result of any Lien granted in contravention of this Section 4.03 or any such release or lack of perfection shall be subject to Section 5.05(b).

Section 4.04 Similar Collateral and Agreements. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that it is their intention that the Revolver Collateral and the Term Loan Collateral be identical. In furtherance of the foregoing, the parties hereto agree (a) to cooperate in good faith in order to determine, upon any reasonable request by the Revolver Agent or the Term Loan Agent, the specific assets included in the Revolver Collateral and the Term Loan Collateral, the steps taken to perfect the Revolver Liens and the Term Loan Liens thereon and the identity of the respective parties obligated under the Revolver Documents and the Term Loan Documents in respect of the Revolver Obligations and the Term Loan Obligations, respectively, (b) that the Term Loan Security Documents creating Liens on the Shared Collateral shall be in all material respects the same forms of documents as the respective Revolver Security Documents

creating Liens on the Shared Collateral other than (i) such modifications to such Term Loan Security Documents which are less restrictive than the corresponding Revolver Security Documents and (ii) provisions in the Term Loan Security Documents which are solely applicable to the rights and duties of the Collateral Trustee and (c) that at no time shall there be any Grantor that is an obligor in respect of the Term Loan Obligations that is not also an obligor in respect of the Revolver Obligations or an obligor in respect of the Revolver Obligations that is not also an obligor in respect of the Term Loan Obligations. The intention of the parties hereto that their interests in the Shared Collateral be identical may not be construed as a condition to the grant, attachment or perfection of any Lien held by any of the Priority Secured Parties, nor shall it be construed to confer on any third party any right, interest or priority superior to that which such party would hold in the absence of such intention. To the extent that, notwithstanding the intentions and obligations stated above, the interests of the parties hereto in the Shared Collateral are not identical, then the provisions of the last sentence of Section 4.03 above shall govern.

Section 4.05 No Implied Duty of Collateral Trustee. The Collateral Trustee will not have any duties nor will it have responsibilities or obligations other than those expressly assumed by it in this Agreement, the other Security Documents and the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement. No implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement, the other Priority Debt Documents or the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement, or otherwise exist against the Collateral Trustee. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentences, the use of the term “trustee” in this Agreement with reference to the Collateral Trustee is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. The Collateral Trustee will not be required to take any action that is contrary to applicable law or any provision of this Agreement, the other Security Documents or the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement.

Section 4.06 No Duties of Revolver Agent or Collateral Trustee. The Term Loan Agent, for itself and on behalf of each other Term Loan Secured Party, acknowledges and agrees that neither the Revolver Agent nor any other Revolver Secured Party shall have any duties or other obligations to any such Term Loan Secured Party with respect to any Shared Collateral, other than to transfer to the Collateral Trustee for the benefit of the Term Loan Agent any remaining Shared Collateral and any proceeds of the sale or other Disposition of any such Shared Collateral remaining in its possession following the associated Discharge of Revolver Obligations, in each case without representation or warranty on the part of the Revolver Agent or any Revolver Secured Party. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Term Loan Agent, for itself and on behalf of each other Term Loan Secured Party, acknowledges and agrees that until the Discharge of Revolver Obligations (subject to the terms of Section 5.02, including the rights of the Term Loan Secured Parties following the expiration of the Standstill Period), the Collateral Trustee at the direction of the Revolver Agent shall be entitled, for the benefit of the Revolver Secured Parties, to sell, transfer or otherwise Dispose of or deal with such Shared Collateral, as provided herein and in the Revolver Documents, without regard to any Term Loan Lien or any rights to which the Term Loan Agent or any Term Loan Secured Party would otherwise be entitled as a result of such Term Loan Lien. Without limiting the foregoing, the Term Loan Agent, for itself and on behalf of each other Term Loan Secured Party, agrees that neither the Collateral Trustee, the Revolver Agent nor any other Revolver Secured Party shall have any duty

or obligation first to marshal or realize upon any type of Shared Collateral, or to sell, Dispose of or otherwise liquidate all or any portion of such Shared Collateral, in any manner that would maximize the return to the Term Loan Secured Parties, notwithstanding that the order and timing of any such realization, sale, Disposition or liquidation may affect the amount of proceeds actually received by the Term Loan Secured Parties from such realization, sale, Disposition or liquidation. The Term Loan Agent, for itself and on behalf of each of the other Term Loan Secured Parties waives any claim such Term Loan Secured Party may now or hereafter have against the Collateral Trustee, the Revolver Agent or any other Revolver Secured Party arising out of any actions which the Collateral Trustee, the Revolver Agent or the Revolver Secured Parties take or omit to take (including actions with respect to the creation, perfection or continuation of Liens on any Shared Collateral, actions with respect to the foreclosure upon, sale, release or depreciation of, or failure to realize upon, any of the Shared Collateral, and actions with respect to the collection of any claim for all or any part of the Revolver Obligations from any account debtor, guarantor or any other party) in accordance with this Agreement and the Revolver Documents or the valuation, use, protection or release of any security for the Revolver Obligations.

ARTICLE V

ENFORCEMENT RIGHTS

Section 5.01 Limitation on Enforcement Action; Prohibition on Contesting Liens. Prior to the Discharge of Revolver Obligations, the Term Loan Agent, for itself and on behalf of each Term Loan Secured Party, hereby agrees that, subject to Section 5.02 and Section 5.05(b), none of the Term Loan Agent or any other Term Loan Secured Party shall commence or instruct the Collateral Trustee to commence any judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure proceedings with respect to, seek to have a trustee, receiver, liquidator or similar official appointed for or over, attempt any action to take possession of, exercise any right, remedy or power with respect to, or otherwise take any action to enforce its interest in or realize upon, or take any other action available to it in respect of, any Shared Collateral under any Term Loan Document, applicable law or otherwise (including but not limited to any right of setoff or under the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement), it being agreed that only the Collateral Trustee, at the direction of the Revolver Agent, and acting in accordance with the applicable Revolver Documents, shall have the exclusive right (and whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced), to take any such actions or exercise any such remedies, in each case, without any consultation with or the consent of the Term Loan Agent or any other Term Loan Secured Party. In exercising rights and remedies with respect to the Shared Collateral, the Collateral Trustee, at the direction of the Revolver Agent and the other Revolver Secured Parties may enforce the provisions of the Revolver Documents and exercise remedies thereunder, all in such order and in such manner as the Revolver Agent and the other Revolver Secured Parties may determine in their sole discretion and regardless of whether such exercise and enforcement is adverse to the interest of any Term Loan Secured Party. Such exercise and enforcement shall include the rights of an agent appointed by them to Dispose of Shared Collateral upon foreclosure, to incur expenses in connection with any such Disposition or in connection with care or preservation of the Shared Collateral and to exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured creditor under the Uniform Commercial Code, the Bankruptcy Code (including the right to credit bid) or any other applicable law or Bankruptcy Law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Collateral Trustee, at the direction of the Revolver Agent, will have the exclusive right to deal

with that portion of the Shared Collateral consisting of deposit accounts and securities accounts (collectively “Accounts”), including exercising rights under control agreements with respect to such Accounts. The Term Loan Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other Term Loan Secured Parties, hereby acknowledges and agrees that no covenant, agreement or restriction contained in any Term Loan Security Document, or any other Term Loan Document shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights and remedies of the Collateral Trustee on behalf of the Revolver Agent or the other Revolver Secured Parties with respect to the Shared Collateral as set forth in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to Section 5.05, the Term Loan Agent, on behalf of the Term Loan Secured Parties, may, but will have no obligation to, direct the Collateral Trustee to take all such actions (not adverse to the Revolver Liens or the rights of the Revolver Agent and the Revolver Secured Parties) it deems necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of the Term Loan Liens in the Shared Collateral or to create, preserve or protect (but not enforce) the Term Loan Liens in the Shared Collateral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall limit the right or ability of the Term Loan Secured Parties to (a) purchase (by credit bid or otherwise) all or any portion of the Shared Collateral in connection with any enforcement of remedies by the Collateral Trustee at the direction of the Revolver Agent to the extent that, and so long as, the Discharge of Revolver Obligations occurs immediately after giving effect thereto, (b) direct the Collateral Trustee to file a proof of claim with respect to the Term Loan Obligations, (c) direct the Collateral Trustee to take any action in order to create, prove, perfect, preserve or protect (but not enforce) its rights in, and perfection and priority of its Lien on, the Shared Collateral, or (d) direct the Collateral Trustee 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 Term Loan Secured Parties or the avoidance of any Lien securing such Term Loan Obligations. The Revolving Agent agrees to notify the Term Agent of any direction given by it to the Collateral Trustee to commence any Enforcement Action in respect of the Shared Collateral; provided, that failure to give such notice shall not impair the effectiveness of such Enforcement Action, nor create any claim or cause of action against the Revolving Agent or any Revolving Secured Party.

Section 5.02 Standstill Period; Permitted Enforcement Action. Prior to the Discharge of Revolver Obligations and notwithstanding Section 5.01, both before and during an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding after a period of 180 days has elapsed (which period will be tolled during any period in which the Collateral Trustee is not entitled, on behalf of the Revolver Secured Parties, to enforce or exercise any rights or remedies with respect to any Shared Collateral as a result of (a) any injunction issued by a court of competent jurisdiction or (b) the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding) since the date on which the Term Loan Agent has delivered to the Collateral Trustee and the Revolver Agent written notice of the acceleration of any Term Loan Debt (the “Standstill Period”), the Term Loan Agent and the other Term Loan Secured Parties may direct the Collateral Trustee on their behalf to enforce or exercise any rights or remedies with respect to any Shared Collateral; provided, however that notwithstanding the expiration of the Standstill Period or anything in the Term Loan Documents to the contrary, in no event may the Term Loan Agent or any other Term Loan Secured Party direct the Collateral Trustee on their behalf to enforce or exercise any rights or remedies with respect to any Shared Collateral, or commence, join with any Person at any time in commencing, or petition for or vote in favor of any resolution for, any such action or proceeding, if the Collateral Trustee on behalf of the Revolver Secured Parties or any other Revolver Secured Party shall have commenced, and shall be diligently pursuing (or shall have

sought or requested relief from, or modification of, the automatic stay or any other stay or other prohibition in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding to enable the commencement and pursuit thereof), the enforcement or exercise of any rights or remedies with respect to the Shared Collateral (prompt written notice thereof to be given to the Term Loan Agent by the Collateral Trustee); provided, further, that, at any time after the expiration of the Standstill Period, if neither the Collateral Trustee, the Revolver Agent nor any other Revolver Secured Party shall have commenced and be diligently pursuing (or shall have sought, and requested relief from, or modification of, the automatic stay or any other stay or other prohibition in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding to enable the commencement and pursuit thereof) the enforcement or exercise of any rights or remedies with respect to any material portion of the Shared Collateral, and the Collateral Trustee, on behalf of and at the direction of the Term Loan Agent, shall have commenced the enforcement or exercise of any rights or remedies with respect to any material portion of the Shared Collateral or any such action or proceeding in respect of such rights and remedies, then for so long as the Collateral Trustee on behalf of the Term Loan Agent is diligently pursuing such rights and remedies, none of any Revolver Secured Party or the Revolver Agent shall take, or direct the Collateral Trustee on their behalf to take any action of a similar nature with respect to such Shared Collateral, or commence, join with any Person at any time in commencing, or petition for or vote in favor of any resolution for, any such action or proceeding (provided that during such period the Revolver Agent may direct the Collateral Trustee to take, on behalf of the Revolver Secured Parties, any of the actions the Term Loan Agent is permitted to direct the Collateral Trustee to take on behalf of the Term Loan Secured Parties during the Standstill Period). Nothing contained in this Section 5.02 shall relieve the Term Loan Agent or any Term Loan Secured party of its obligations under Section 5.05(b).

Section 5.03 Insurance. Unless and until the Discharge of Revolver Obligations has occurred (subject to the terms of Section 5.02, including the rights of the Term Loan Secured Parties following expiration of the Standstill Period), the Collateral Trustee, at the direction of the Revolver Agent, shall have the sole and exclusive right, subject to the rights of the Grantors under the Revolver Documents, to adjust and settle claims in respect of Shared Collateral under any insurance policy in the event of any loss thereunder and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding (or any deed in lieu of condemnation) affecting the Shared Collateral. Unless and until the Discharge of Revolver Obligations has occurred, and subject to the rights of the Grantors under the Revolver Documents, all proceeds of any such policy and any such award (or any payments with respect to a deed in lieu of condemnation) in respect to the Shared Collateral shall be paid to the Revolver Agent pursuant to the terms of the Revolver Documents (including for purposes of cash collateralization of commitments, letters of credit and Hedge Obligations). If the Term Loan Agent or any Term Loan Secured Party shall, at any time prior to the Discharge of Revolver Obligations, receive any proceeds of any such insurance policy or any such award or payment in contravention of the foregoing, it shall pay such proceeds over to the Collateral Trustee. In addition, if by virtue of being named as an additional insured or loss payee of any insurance policy of any Grantor covering any of the Shared Collateral, the Term Loan Agent or any other Term Loan Secured Party shall have the right to adjust or settle any claim under any such insurance policy, then unless and until the Discharge of Revolver Obligations has occurred, the Term Loan Agent and any such Term Loan Secured Party shall follow the instructions of the Collateral Trustee, or of the Grantors under the Revolver Documents to the extent the Revolver Documents grant such Grantors the right to adjust or settle such claims, with respect to such adjustment or settlement (subject to the terms of Section 5.02, including the rights of the Term Loan Secured Parties following expiration of the Standstill Period).

Section 5.04 Notification of Release of Collateral. Each Priority Debt Representative shall give the Collateral Trustee and the other Priority Debt Representative prompt written notice of instructions to the Collateral Trustee to Dispose, and Release the Lien on, any Shared Collateral. Such notice shall describe in reasonable detail the subject Shared Collateral, the parties involved in such Disposition or Release, the place, time manner and method thereof, and the consideration, if any, received therefor; provided, however, that the failure to give any such notice shall not in and of itself in any way impair the effectiveness of any such Disposition or Release.

Section 5.05 No Interference; Payment Over.

(a) No Interference. Subject to Section 5.01, Section 5.02 and Section 6.02, the Term Loan Agent, for itself and on behalf of each Term Loan Secured Party, agrees that each Term Loan Secured Party (i) will not take or cause to be taken any action the purpose or effect of which is to give such Term Loan Secured Party any preference or priority relative to, any Revolver Lien with respect to the Shared Collateral or any part thereof, (ii) will not challenge or question (or direct the Collateral Trustee to challenge or question) in any proceeding the validity or enforceability of any Revolver Obligations or Revolver Document, or the validity, attachment or perfection of any Revolver Lien, or the validity or enforceability of the priorities, rights or duties established by the provisions of this Agreement, (iii) will not take or cause to be taken any action the purpose or effect of which is, or could be, to interfere, hinder or delay, in any manner, whether by judicial proceedings or otherwise, any sale, transfer or other Disposition of the Shared Collateral by the Revolver Agent or the Collateral Trustee, at the direction of any Revolver Secured Party or the Revolver Agent, acting on their behalf, (iv) shall have no right to (A) direct the Collateral Trustee (except as provided in Section 5.02), the Revolver Agent or any other Revolver Secured Party to exercise any right, remedy or power with respect to any Shared Collateral or (B) consent to the exercise by the Collateral Trustee, the Revolver Agent or any other Revolver Secured Party of any right, remedy or power of the Revolver Secured Parties with respect to any Shared Collateral, (v) will not institute or cause to be instituted any suit or assert in any suit or Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding any claim against the Collateral Trustee, the Revolver Agent or other Revolver Secured Party seeking damages from or other relief by way of specific performance, instructions or otherwise with respect to, and neither the Collateral Trustee, the Revolver Agent nor any other Revolver Secured Party shall be liable to any of the Term Loan Secured Parties for, any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Collateral Trustee, the Revolver Agent or other Revolver Secured Party with respect to any Shared Collateral, (vi) will not seek, and hereby waives any right, to have any Shared Collateral or any part thereof marshaled upon any foreclosure or other Disposition of such Shared Collateral, (vii) will not attempt, directly or indirectly, whether by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to challenge the enforceability of any provision of this Agreement, (viii) will not object to forbearance by the Revolver Agent or the Collateral Trustee at the direction of the Revolver Agent or any Revolver Secured Party, and (ix) will not assert, and hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any right to demand, request, plead or otherwise assert or claim the benefit of any marshalling, appraisal, valuation or other similar right that may be available under applicable law with respect to the Shared Collateral or any similar rights a junior secured creditor may have under applicable

law; provided that nothing herein shall limit the rights of any Term Loan Secured Party to enforce the terms of this Agreement. The Revolver Agent, for itself and on behalf of each Revolver Secured Party, agrees that each Revolver Secured Party (i) will not challenge or question in any proceeding the validity or enforceability of any Term Loan Obligations or Term Loan Document, or the validity, attachment or perfection of any Term Loan Lien, or the validity or enforceability of the priorities, rights or duties established by the provisions of this Agreement and (ii) will not take or cause to be taken any action the purpose or effect of which is, or could be, to interfere, hinder or delay, in any manner, whether by judicial proceedings or otherwise, any sale, transfer or other Disposition of the Shared Collateral by the Collateral Trustee, any Term Loan Secured Party or the Term Loan Agent acting on their behalf to the extent such sale, transfer or other Disposition is permitted by the terms of this Agreement.

(b) Payment Over. The Term Loan Agent, for itself and on behalf of each other Term Loan Secured Party, hereby agrees that if any Term Loan Secured Party shall obtain possession of any Shared Collateral or shall realize any Proceeds or payment in respect of any Shared Collateral, pursuant to any rights or remedies with respect to the Shared Collateral under any Term Loan Security Document or on account of any rights available to it under applicable law or in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, to the extent permitted hereunder, at any time prior to the Discharge of Revolver Obligations secured, or intended to be secured, by such Shared Collateral, then it shall hold such Shared Collateral, Proceeds or payment in trust for the Revolver Agent and the other Revolver Secured Parties and transfer such Shared Collateral, Proceeds or payment, as the case may be, to the Collateral Trustee as promptly as practicable; provided that nothing herein shall limit the rights of the Term Loan Secured Parties to receive the payments of principal, interest, fees and other amounts under the Term Loan Documents so long as such payment is not the result of any exercise of remedies by any Term Loan Secured Party with respect to the Shared Collateral or a payment in respect of Shared Collateral or the Term Loan Secured Parties realizing any Proceeds in respect of Shared Collateral. For the avoidance of doubt, any Proceeds received by any of the Term Loan Secured Parties in connection with any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding shall be deemed to be the result of an exercise of remedies. Furthermore, the Term Loan Agent shall, at the Grantors’ expense, promptly send written notice to the Collateral Trustee and the Revolver Agent upon receipt of such Shared Collateral, Proceeds or payment not permitted hereunder by any Term Loan Secured Party and if directed by the Collateral Trustee, at the direction of the Revolver Agent, within five (5) days after receipt by the Collateral Trustee of such written notice, shall deliver such Shared Collateral, Proceeds or payment to the Revolver Agent in the same form as received, with any necessary endorsements, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. The Revolver Agent is hereby authorized to make any such endorsements as agent for the Term Loan Agent or any other Term Loan Secured Party. The Term Loan Agent, for itself and on behalf of each other Term Loan Secured Party agrees that if, at any time, it obtains written notice that all or part of any payment with respect to any Revolver Obligations previously made shall be rescinded for any reason whatsoever, it will promptly pay over to the Collateral Trustee for payment to the Revolver Agent any such Shared Collateral, Proceeds or payment not permitted hereunder received by it and then in its or the Collateral Trustee’s possession or under its or the Collateral Trustee’s direct control in respect of any such Revolver Collateral and shall promptly turn any such Shared Collateral then held by it over to the Collateral Trustee for the Revolver Agent, and the provisions set forth in this Agreement will be reinstated as if such payment had not been made, until the Discharge of Revolver Obligations. All Term Loan Liens will remain attached to, and

enforceable against all Proceeds so held or remitted, subject to the priorities set forth in this Agreement. At any time prior to the commencement of an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, this Section 5.05(b) shall not apply to any Proceeds of Shared Collateral realized in a transaction not prohibited by the Revolver Documents and as to which the possession or receipt thereof by the Term Loan Agent or any other Term Loan Secured Party is otherwise permitted by the Revolver Documents.

ARTICLE VI

OTHER AGREEMENTS

Section 6.01 Release of Liens. (a) Prior to the Discharge of Revolver Obligations, the Term Loan Agent, for itself and on behalf of each other Term Loan Secured Party agrees that, in the event the Collateral Trustee at the direction of the Revolver Secured Parties releases the Revolver Lien on any Shared Collateral, the Term Loan Lien on such Shared Collateral shall terminate and be released automatically and without further action if (i) such release is permitted under the Revolver Documents and the Term Loan Documents, (ii) such release is effected in connection with the Collateral Trustee’s foreclosure upon, or other exercise of rights or remedies with respect to, such Shared Collateral at the direction of the Revolver Agent (including a Disposition of Shared Collateral to which the Borrower or Grantor consents or assists), or (iii) such release is effected in connection with a sale or other Disposition of any Shared Collateral (or any portion thereof) under Section 363 or any other provision of the Bankruptcy Code if the Revolver Secured Parties shall have consented to such sale or Disposition of such Shared Collateral; provided that, in the case of each of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), the Term Loan Liens on such Shared Collateral shall attach to (and shall remain subject to the terms of this Agreement) any Proceeds of a sale, transfer or other Disposition of Shared Collateral not paid to the Revolver Secured Parties or that remain after the Discharge of Revolver Obligations.

(b) The Term Loan Agent agrees to direct the Collateral Trustee to execute and deliver (at the sole cost and expense of the Grantors) all such releases and other instruments as shall reasonably be requested by the Revolver Agent to evidence and confirm any release of Shared Collateral provided for in this Section 6.01.

Section 6.02 Certain Agreements With Respect to Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings.

(a) Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that this Agreement is a “subordination agreement” under New York law, New York UCC 9-339 and Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and shall continue in full force and effect, notwithstanding the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding by or against the Borrower or any subsidiary of the Borrower. All references in this Agreement to the Borrower or any subsidiary of the Borrower or any other Grantor will include such Person or Persons as a debtor-in-possession and any receiver or trustee for such Person or Persons in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.

(b) If the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries shall become subject to any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and shall, as debtor(s)-in-possession, or if any receiver or

trustee for such Person or Persons shall, move for approval of financing (“DIP Financing”) to be provided by one or more lenders (the “DIP Lenders”) under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or the use of cash collateral under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Term Loan Agent, for itself and on behalf of each Term Loan Secured Party, agrees that neither it nor any other Term Loan Secured Party will raise any objection to, contest or oppose (and shall not direct the Collateral Trustee to raise any objection to, contest or oppose), and each Term Loan Secured Party will waive any claim such Person may now or hereafter have and shall be deemed to consent to, any such DIP Financing or the Liens on the Shared Collateral securing the same (“DIP Financing Liens”), or any use, sale or lease of cash collateral that constitutes Shared Collateral or any grant of administrative expense priority under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code, unless the Revolver Agent opposes or objects to such DIP Financing or such DIP Financing Liens or such use of cash collateral. The Term Loan Agent will instruct the Collateral Trustee to, for itself and on behalf of the other Term Loan Secured Parties, (i) subordinate the Term Loan Liens including any replacement Liens granted as adequate protection Liens to the Term Loan Secured Parties on the Shared Collateral to any such DIP Financing Liens on the same terms as the Revolver Liens of the Revolver Secured Parties are subordinated thereto (ii) deem any replacement Liens granted as adequate protection Liens to the Term Loan Secured Parties on the Shared Collateral as Liens subject to the terms hereof (including 4.01) and (iii) agree to the terms and priority of any “carve-outs”.

(c) Prior to the Discharge of Revolver Obligations, without the consent of the Revolver Agent, in its sole discretion, the Term Loan Agent, for itself and on behalf of each Term Loan Secured Party agrees not to propose, support or enter into any DIP Financing.

(d) The Term Loan Agent, for itself and on behalf of each Term Loan Secured Party, agrees that it will not (and will not direct to the Collateral Trustee to) object to, oppose or contest (or join with or support any third party objecting to, opposing or contesting) and if requested, will consent (and will direct the Collateral Trustee to consent on behalf of the Term Loan Secured Parties) to a sale or other Disposition, a motion to sell or Dispose or the bidding procedure for such sale or Disposition of any Shared Collateral (or any portion thereof) under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or any other provision of the Bankruptcy Code (including any credit bidding under Section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code), if the Revolver Secured Parties shall have consented to such sale or Disposition, such motion to sell or Dispose or such bidding procedures for such sale or Disposition of such Shared Collateral.

(e) The Term Loan Agent, for itself and on behalf of each other Term Loan Secured Party waives any claim that may be had against the Collateral Trustee, the Revolver Agent or any other Revolver Secured Party arising out of any DIP Financing Liens or administrative expense priority under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code (in each case that is granted in a manner that is consistent with this Agreement).

(f) The Term Loan Agent, for itself and on behalf of each other Term Loan Secured Party, agrees that neither the Term Loan Agent nor any other Term Loan Secured Party will (nor will they instruct the Collateral Trustee on their behalf to) file or prosecute in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, any motion for adequate protection (or any comparable request for relief), including for payment of Post-Petition Interest, based upon their interest in the Shared Collateral, nor object to, oppose or contest (or join with or support any third party

objecting to, opposing or contesting) (i) any request by the Revolver Agent or the Collateral Trustee on behalf of the Revolver Agent or any other Revolver Secured Party for adequate protection, including for payment of Post-Petition Interest, or (ii) any objection by the Revolver Agent or the Collateral Trustee on behalf of the Revolver Agent or any other Revolver Secured Party to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on the Revolver Agent or Revolver Secured Parties claiming a lack of adequate protection, except that the Term Loan Secured Parties may, or may instruct the Collateral Trustee on behalf of the Term Loan Secured Parties to:

(i) freely seek and obtain relief granting adequate protection in the form of a replacement lien or additional collateral co-extensive in all respects with, but with the same relative priority to the Revolver Liens as existed prior to the commencement of the Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, all Liens or additional collateral granted in the Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding to, or for the benefit of, the Revolver Secured Parties (with any such resulting collateral constituting Shared Collateral hereunder and subject to the terms of this Agreement, including Section 8.01);

(ii) freely seek and obtain relief granting adequate protection in the form of superpriority claims to the same extent granted to the Revolver Secured Parties, provided payments made on account of such superpriority claims shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement, including Section 8.01; and

(iii) freely seek and obtain any relief upon a motion for adequate protection (or any comparable relief), without any condition or restriction whatsoever, at any time after the Discharge of Revolver Obligations.

(g) To the extent the Term Loan Obligations and the Revolver Obligations are classified in the same class under a plan of reorganization, (i) the Revolver Agent may direct any election under Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to such class and (ii) the Collateral Trustee on behalf of each of the Term Loan Secured Parties waives any claim it or any such Term Loan Secured Party may now or hereafter have against the Revolver Agent or any other Revolver Secured Party (or their representatives) arising out of any election by the Revolver Agent or any Revolver Secured Parties, in any proceeding instituted under the Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code.

(h) The Term Loan Agent, for itself and on behalf of each other Term Loan Secured Party, agrees that in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, neither the Term Loan Agent nor any other Term Loan Secured Party shall (nor shall they direct the Collateral Trustee to) support or vote to accept any plan of reorganization of the Borrower or any other Grantor unless (i) such plan is accepted by the Revolver Secured Parties in accordance with Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise provides for the Discharge of Revolver Obligations on the effective date of such plan of reorganization, (ii) such Plan provides for the Discharge of Revolver Obligations, or (iii) such plan provides on account of the Revolver Obligations for the retention by the Collateral Trustee, for the benefit of the Revolver Secured Parties, of the Liens on the Shared Collateral securing the Revolver Obligations, and on all Proceeds thereof whenever received, and such plan also provides that any Liens retained by, or granted to, the Collateral Trustee for the Term Loan Secured Parties are only on property securing the Revolver

Obligations and shall have the same relative priority with respect to the Shared Collateral or other property (including the same relative priority with respect to proceeds of such Shared Collateral or other property), respectively, as provided in this Agreement with respect to the Shared Collateral. Except as provided herein, the Term Loan Secured Parties shall remain entitled to vote their claims in any such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.

(i) The Term Loan Agent, for itself and on behalf of each other Term Loan Secured Party, agrees that neither the Term Loan Agent nor any other Term Loan Secured Party shall (nor shall they direct the Collateral Trustee to) seek relief (or support any other party seeking relief), pursuant to Section 362(d) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, from the automatic stay of Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or from any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Shared Collateral without the prior written consent of the Revolver Agent.

(j) The Term Loan Agent, for itself and on behalf of each other Term Loan Secured Party, agrees that neither the Term Loan Agent nor any other Term Loan Secured Party shall (nor shall they direct the Collateral Trustee to) oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the Collateral Trustee, the Revolver Agent or any other Revolver Secured Party for allowance or payment in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of Revolver Obligations consisting of Post-Petition Interest or cash collateralization of all letters of credit to the extent of the value of the Revolver Liens (it being understood that such value will be determined without regard to the existence of the Term Loan Liens on the Shared Collateral). Neither the Revolver Agent nor any other Revolver Secured Party shall (nor shall they direct the Collateral Trustee to) oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the Collateral Trustee, the Term Loan Agent or any other Term Loan Secured Party for allowance or payment in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of Term Loan Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses to the extent of the value of the Term Loan Liens on the Shared Collateral; provided that if the Collateral Trustee, the Revolver Agent or any other Revolver Secured Party shall have made any claim for post-petition interest, fees or expenses in respect of the Revolver Obligations, such claim (i) shall have been approved or (ii) will be approved contemporaneously with the approval of any such claim by the Collateral Trustee, the Term Loan Agent or any Term Loan Secured Party and, to the extent the Term Loan Secured Parties receive any payment on account of such claims for post-petition interest in respect of the Term Loan Obligations and the Revolver Secured Parties are not entitled to or do not receive payment on account of their claims for post-petition interest, the amounts received by the Term Loan Secured Parties on account of post-petition interest shall be delivered to the Revolver Agent for application pursuant to Section 8.01 unless otherwise consented to the by the Revolver Agent.

(k) Without the express written consent of the Revolver Agent, none of the Collateral Trustee, the Term Loan Agent or any other Term Loan Secured Party shall (or shall join with or support any third party in opposing, objecting to or contesting, as the case may be), in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding involving any Grantor, (i) oppose, object to or contest the determination of the extent of any Liens held by the Collateral Trustee on behalf of any Revolver Secured Party or the value of any claims of any such holder under Section 506(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or (ii) oppose, object to or contest the payment to the Collateral Trustee on behalf of the Revolver Secured Parties of interest, fees or expenses under Section 506(b) of the Bankruptcy Code. Without the express written consent of the Term Loan Agent, none of the

Collateral Trustee, the Revolver Agent or any other Revolver Secured Party shall (or shall join with or support any third party in opposing, objecting to or contesting, as the case may be), in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding involving any Grantor, oppose, object to or contest the determination of the extent of any Liens held by the Collateral Trustee on behalf of any Term Loan Secured Party or the value of any claims of any such holder under Section 506(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.

(l) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding a determination is made that any Lien encumbering any Shared Collateral is not enforceable for any reason, then the Term Loan Agent for itself and on behalf of each other Term Loan Secured Party agrees that, any distribution or recovery they may receive in respect of any Shared Collateral (including assets that would constitute Shared Collateral but for such determination) shall be segregated and held in trust and forthwith paid over to the Collateral Trustee for the benefit of the Revolver Secured Parties in the same form as received without recourse, representation or warranty (other than a representation of the Term Loan Agent that it has not otherwise sold, assigned, transferred or pledged any right, title or interest in and to such distribution or recovery) but with any necessary endorsements or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. The Term Loan Agent, for itself and on behalf of each other Term Loan Secured Party hereby appoints the Collateral Trustee, and any officer or agent of the Collateral Trustee, with full power of substitution, the attorney-in-fact of each Term Loan Secured Party for the limited purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Section 6.02(l) and taking any action and executing any instrument that the Collateral Trustee may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Section 6.02(l), which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest.

(m) The Term Loan Agent, for itself and on behalf of each other Term Loan Secured Party, hereby agrees that the Revolver Agent shall have the right to (or to instruct the Collateral Trustee on its behalf) credit bid the Revolver Obligations and further that none of the Collateral Trustee, the Term Loan Agent or any other Term Loan Secured Party shall (or shall join with or support any third party in opposing, objecting to or contesting, as the case may be) oppose, object to or contest such credit bid by the Revolver Agent. The Term Loan Secured Parties may credit bid, or instruct the Collateral Trustee to credit bid the Term Loan Obligations in accordance with Sections 363(k) or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable law, only if such bid includes a cash payment sufficient to provide for the Discharge of Revolver Obligations and the Discharge of Revolver Obligations occurs immediately after giving effect to such credit bid, or if the Revolver Agent otherwise consents in writing.

(n) The Term Loan Agent, for itself and on behalf of each other Term Loan Secured Party waives any right to assert or enforce any claim under Section 506(c) or 552 of the Bankruptcy Code as against the Collateral Trustee, any Revolver Secured Party or any of the Shared Collateral.

(o) The Borrower, each Grantor, the Collateral Trustee, the Revolver Agent (on behalf of each Revolver Secured Party) and the Term Loan Agent (on behalf of each Term Loan Secured Party) acknowledges and intends that the grants of Liens pursuant to the Revolver Documents, on the one hand, and the Term Loan Documents, on the other hand, constitute

separate and distinct grants of Liens, and because of, among other things, their differing priority in right of recovery on the Shared Collateral with respect to the Proceeds of the Shared Collateral under Section 8.01, each of the Revolver Obligations, on the one hand, and the Term Loan Obligations, on the other hand, are fundamentally different from one another and must be separately classified in any plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan proposed or confirmed (or approved) in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, if it is held that the claims of any of the Revolver Secured Parties, on the one hand, and the Term Loan Secured Parties, on the other hand, constitute claims in the same class (rather than separate classes of secured claims), then the Term Loan Secured Parties hereby acknowledge and agree (i) to vote to reject such plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan unless the Revolver Secured Parties holding greater than half in number and two-thirds in amount of the Revolver Obligations agree to accept such plan or such plan provides for the Discharge of Revolver Obligations, (ii) that all distributions from the Shared Collateral shall be made as if there were separate classes of Revolver Obligations and Term Loan Obligations against the Grantors, 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 other secured parties), the Revolver Secured Parties, shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them in respect of principal, prepetition interest and other claims, Post-Petition Interest, before any distribution is made in respect of the Term Loan Obligations (or any claims, including in respect of post-petition interest, fees or expenses, related thereto) from, or with respect to, such Shared Collateral, with each holder of the Term Loan Obligations (and/or any claim, post-petition interest, fees or expenses, related thereto) hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the Revolver Secured Parties amounts otherwise received or receivable by them from, or with respect to, such Shared Collateral to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing their aggregate recoveries. The Revolver Agent (on behalf of all Revolver Secured Parties) and the Term Loan Agent (on behalf of all Term Loan Secured Parties) each hereby agree it shall not object to or contest (or support any other party in objection or contesting) a plan of reorganization or other dispositive restructuring plan on the grounds that the Revolver Obligations and Term Loan Obligations are classified separately.

Section 6.03 Reinstatement. If any Revolver Secured Party is required in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise to turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of any Grantor any amount (a “Recovery”) for any reason whatsoever, then the Revolver Obligations shall be reinstated to the extent of such Recovery and the Revolver Secured Parties shall be entitled to a reinstatement of Revolver Obligations with respect to all such recovered amounts. The Collateral Trustee and the Term Loan Agent, for itself and on behalf of each other Term Loan Secured Party agree that if, at any time, a Term Loan Secured Party receives notice of any Recovery, the Collateral Trustee, the Term Loan Agent and each other Term Loan Secured Party, shall promptly pay over to the Revolver Agent any payment that is not permitted hereunder to be received by the Term Loan-Secured Parties received by it and then in its possession or under its control in respect of any Shared Collateral and shall promptly turn any Shared Collateral then held by it over to the Revolver Agent (or in the instance of the Collateral Trustee any such Shared Collateral held by it for the Term Loan Secured Parties shall thereafter be held for the Revolver Secured Parties for distribution in accordance with Section 8.01), and the provisions set forth in this Agreement shall be reinstated as if such payment had not been

made. If this Agreement shall have been terminated prior to any 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. Any Shared Collateral or Proceeds thereof that is not permitted hereunder to be received by the Term Loan Secured Parties (or the Collateral Trustee for the Term Loan Secured Parties) received by the Term Loan Agent or any other Term Loan Secured Party (or the Collateral Trustee) and then in its possession or under its control on account of the Term Loan Obligations after the termination of this Agreement shall, in the event of a reinstatement of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 6.03, be held in trust for and paid over to the Collateral Trustee for the benefit of the Revolver Secured Parties for application to the reinstated Revolver Obligations until the discharge thereof. This Section 6.03 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

Section 6.04 Refinancings; Additional Term Loan Debt.

(a) The Revolver Obligations and the Term Loan Obligations may be Replaced, by any Revolver Substitute Credit Facility or Term Loan Substitute Credit Facility, respectively, in each case, without notice to, or the consent of any Priority Secured Party, all without affecting the Lien priorities provided for herein or the other provisions hereof; provided, that (i) the Collateral Trustee, the Revolver Agent and the Term Loan Agent shall receive on or prior to incurrence of a Revolver Substitute Credit Facility or Term Loan Substitute Credit Facility (A) an Officers’ Certificate from the Borrower stating that (I) the incurrence thereof is permitted by each applicable Priority Debt Document and (II) the applicable requirements of this Section 6.04, have been satisfied, and (B) a Priority Confirmation Joinder executed by the holders or lenders of any indebtedness that Replaces the Revolver Obligations or the Term Loan Obligations (or an authorized agent, trustee or other representative on their behalf) and (ii) on or before the date of such incurrence, such Revolver Substitute Credit Facility or Term Loan Substitute Credit Facility is designated by the Borrower, in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Collateral Trustee, the Revolver Agent and the Term Loan Agent, as “Revolver Debt” or “Term Loan Debt”, as applicable, for the purposes of the Priority Debt Documents and this Agreement; provided that no series of Priority Debt may be designated as more than one of Revolver Debt or Term Loan Debt.

(b) The Borrower will be permitted to designate as an additional holder of Term Loan Obligations hereunder each Person who is, or who becomes, the registered holder of Term Loan Debt, incurred by the Borrower after the date of this Agreement to the extent, but only to the extent, permitted and otherwise in accordance with the terms of all applicable Priority Debt Documents. The Borrower may effect such designation by delivering to the Collateral Trustee, the Revolver Agent and the Term Loan Agent each of the following:

(i) an Officers’ Certificate stating that the Borrower intends to incur Additional Term Loan Obligations which will be Term Loan Debt permitted to be incurred by each applicable Priority Debt Document and secured by a Term Loan Lien, equally and ratably with all previously existing and future Term Loan Debt;

(ii) an authorized agent, trustee or other representative on behalf of the holders or lenders of any Additional Term Loan Obligations must be designated as an additional

holder of Priority Obligations hereunder and must, prior to such designation, sign and deliver on behalf of the holders or lenders of such Additional Term Loan Obligations a Priority Confirmation Joinder, and, to the extent necessary or appropriate to facilitate such transaction, a new collateral trust agreement substantially similar to this Agreement, as in effect on the date hereof.

(iii) evidence that the Borrower has duly authorized, executed (if applicable) and recorded (or caused to be recorded) in each appropriate governmental office all relevant filings and recordations deemed necessary by the Borrower and the holder of such Additional Term Loan Obligations, or its Priority Debt Representative, to ensure that the Additional Term Loan Obligations are secured by the Shared Collateral in accordance with the Term Loan Security Documents (provided that such filings and recordings may be authorized, executed and recorded following any incurrence on a post-closing basis if permitted by the Term Loan Agent for such Additional Term Loan Obligations).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement will be construed to allow the Borrower or any other Grantor to incur additional indebtedness unless otherwise permitted by the terms of each applicable Priority Debt Document.

(c) Each of the then-existing Collateral Trustee, Revolver Agent and the Term Loan Agent shall be authorized to execute and deliver such documents and agreements (including amendments or supplements to this Agreement) as such holders, lenders, agent, trustee or other representative may reasonably request to give effect to any such Replacement or any incurrence of Additional Term Loan Obligations, it being understood that the Collateral Trustee, the Revolver Agent and the Term Loan Agent or (if permitted by the terms of the applicable Priority Debt Documents) the Grantors, without the consent of any other Priority Secured Party or (in the case of the Grantors) one or more Priority Debt Representatives, may amend, supplement, modify or restate this Agreement to the extent necessary or appropriate to facilitate such amendments or supplements to effect such Replacement or incurrence all at the expense of the Grantors. Upon the consummation of such Replacement or incurrence and the execution and delivery of the documents and agreements contemplated in the preceding sentence, the holders or lenders of such indebtedness and any authorized agent, trustee or other representative thereof shall be entitled to the benefits of this Agreement.

Section 6.05 Amendments to Priority Debt Documents. (a) Prior to the Discharge of Revolver Obligations, and except as permitted by the Revolving Loan Documents, without the prior written consent of the Revolver Agent, no Term Loan Document may be amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified and/or refinanced or entered into to the extent such amendment, supplement, restatement or modification and/or refinancing, or the terms of any new Term Loan Document would (i) adversely affect the payment priority rights of the Revolver Secured Parties or the rights of the Revolver Secured Parties to receive payments owing pursuant to the Revolver Documents, (ii) modify any existing rights or confer any additional rights on the Term Loan Agent or any other Term Loan Secured Party in a manner adverse to the Revolver Secured Parties (including by (A) increasing the interest rate or yields therein by more than 3% per annum, (B) adding mandatory prepayments or shortening the maturity date therein, in each case in contravention of the Revolver Credit Agreement), or (iii)

contravene the provisions of this Agreement or the Revolver Credit Agreement (including such that the Term Loan Obligations would no longer qualify as permitted indebtedness under Section 10.1(s) of the Revolver Credit Agreement).

(b) The Term Loan Secured Parties agree to amend the Term Loan Credit Documents as directed by the Revolver Agent, provided such amendment shall only amend the Term Loan Documents to correspond to any revisions made to the Revolver Credit Documents relating to the Shared Collateral; provided however, any amendment or modification that requires the consent of all affected Term Loan Secured Parties shall require the consent of all affected Term Loan Secured Parties.

(c) Nothing in this Agreement shall supersede the provisions set forth in Section 10.1(s) of the Revolver Credit Agreement (or any successor provision thereto).

(d) To the extent the consent of the Priority Lien Agent is required to an amendment, supplement, restatement or other modification to the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement, such consent shall only be provided if both the Revolver Agent and the Term Loan Agent agree in writing to such amendment, supplement, restatement or other modifications.

Section 6.06 Legends. The Term Loan Agent acknowledges with respect to the Term Loan Security Documents, that the Term Loan Documents (other than control agreements to which the Collateral Trustee is a party), and each associated Term Loan Security Document (other than control agreements to which the Collateral Trustee is a party) granting any security interest in the Shared Collateral will contain the appropriate legend set forth on Annex I or a legend in such other form acceptable to the Revolver Agent.

Section 6.07 Term Loan Secured Parties Rights as Unsecured Creditors; Judgment Lien Creditor. Both before and during an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, any of the Term Loan Secured Parties may take, or instruct the Collateral Trustee, on their behalf, to take any actions and exercise any and all rights that would be available to a holder of unsecured claims; provided, however, that the Term Loan Secured Parties may not instruct the Collateral Trustee to take, nor shall they take any of the actions prohibited by Section 5.01, Section 5.05(a), Section 6.01 or Section 6.02 or any other provisions of this Agreement; provided, further that in the event that any of the Collateral Trustee or Term Loan Secured Parties becomes a judgment lien creditor in respect of any Shared Collateral as a result of its enforcement of the Term Loan Secured Patties’ rights as an unsecured creditor with respect to the Term Loan Obligations, such judgment lien shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement for all purposes (including in relation to the Revolver Obligations) as the Term Loan Liens are subject to this Agreement.

Section 6.08 Postponement of Subrogation. The Term Loan Agent, for itself and on behalf of each other Term Loan Secured Party, hereby agrees that no payment or distribution to any Revolver Secured Party pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement shall entitle any Term Loan Secured Party to exercise any rights of subrogation in respect thereof until the Discharge of Revolver Obligations shall have occurred. Following the Discharge of Revolver Obligations, but subject to the reinstatement as provided in Section 6.03, each Revolver Secured Party will execute such documents, agreements, and instruments as any Term Loan Secured Party may reasonably request to evidence the transfer by subrogation to any such Person

of an interest in the Revolver Obligations resulting from payments or distributions to such Revolver Secured Party by such Person, so long as all costs and expenses (including all reasonable legal fees and disbursements) incurred in connection therewith by such Revolver Secured Party are paid by such Person upon request for payment thereof.

Section 6.09 Acknowledgment by the Secured Debt Representatives. Each of the Revolver Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other Revolver Secured Parties and the Term Loan Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other Term Loan Secured Parties, hereby acknowledges that this Agreement is a material inducement to enter into a business relationship, that each has relied on this Agreement to amend the Original Revolver Credit Agreement, to permit the incurrence of the Term Loan Debt and to enter into the Original Term Loan Credit Agreement, as applicable, and all documentation related thereto, and that each will continue to rely on this Agreement in their related future dealings.

ARTICLE VII

GRATUITOUS BAILMENT FOR PERFECTION OF CERTAIN SECURITY INTERESTS

Section 7.01 General. Each of the Collateral Trustee and the Revolver Agent agrees that if it shall at any time hold a Lien on any Shared Collateral that can be perfected by the possession or control of such 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 the Collateral Trustee or the Revolver Agent, the Collateral Trustee or the Revolver Agent, as the case may be, will serve as gratuitous bailee (a) in the case of the Collateral Trustee, for the Revolver Agent and the Term Loan Agent and (b) (a) in the case of the Revolver Agent, for the Collateral Trustee, for the sole purpose of perfecting the Revolver Lien and the Term Loan Lien on such Shared Collateral. It is agreed that the obligations of the Collateral Trustee and the Revolver Agent and the rights of the Revolver Agent, the other Revolver Secured Parties, the Term Loan Agent and the other Term Loan Secured Parties in connection with any such bailment arrangement will be in all respects subject to the provisions of Article IV.

Each of the Collateral Trustee and the Revolver Agent will act as gratuitous bailee on behalf of (a) in the case of the Collateral Trustee, the Revolver Agent and the Term Loan Agent and (b) in the case of the Revolver Agent, the Collateral Trustee, for the purpose of perfecting the Liens of the Revolver Secured Parties and the Term Loan Secured Parties, respectively, in such Accounts and the cash and other assets therein as provided in Section 7.01 (but will have no duty, responsibility or obligation to the Revolver Secured Parties or the Term Loan Secured Parties (including, without limitation, any duty, responsibility or obligation as to the maintenance of such control, the effect of such arrangement or the establishment of such perfection) except as set forth in the last sentence of this Section 7.02). Unless the Term Loan Liens on such Shared Collateral shall have been or concurrently are released, after the occurrence of Discharge of Revolver Obligations, the Collateral Trustee and the Revolver Agent shall, at the request of the Term Loan Agent, cooperate with the Grantors and the Term Loan Agent (at the expense of the Grantors) in permitting control of any other Accounts to be transferred to the Term Loan Agent (or for other arrangements with respect to each such Accounts satisfactory to the Term Loan Agent to be made).

Section 11.13 Certain Terms Concerning the Revolver Agent and the Term Loan Agent. Neither the Revolver Agent nor the Term Loan Agent shall have any liability or responsibility for the actions or omissions of any other Priority Secured Party, or for any other Priority Secured Party’s compliance with (or failure to comply with) the terms of this Agreement.

Section 11.16 Relationship of Secured Parties. Nothing set forth herein shall create or evidence a joint venture, partnership or an agency or fiduciary relationship among the Priority Secured Parties. None of the Priority Secured Parties nor any of their respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall be responsible to any other Priority Secured Party or to any other Person for any Grantor’s solvency, financial condition or ability to repay the Revolver Obligations or the Term Loan Obligations, or for statements of any Grantor, oral or written, or for the validity, sufficiency or enforceability of the Revolver Documents or the Term Loan Documents, or any security interests granted by any Grantor to any Priority Secured Party in connection therewith. Each Priority Secured Party, as applicable, has entered into its respective financing agreements with the Grantors based upon its own independent investigation, and neither of the Revolver Agent nor the Term Loan Agent makes any warranty or representation to the other Priority Debt Representatives or the Priority Secured Parties for which it acts as agent nor does it rely upon any representation of the other agents or the Priority Secured Parties for which it acts as agent with respect to matters identified or referred to in this Agreement.

Section 11.17 Grantors and Additional Grantors. Each Grantor represents and warrants that it has duly executed and delivered this Agreement. The Borrower will cause each subsidiary of the Borrower that hereafter becomes a Grantor or is required by any Priority Debt Document to become a party to this Agreement to become a party to this Agreement, for all purposes of this Agreement, by causing such Person to execute and deliver to the Collateral Trustee a Collateral Trust Joinder, whereupon such Person will be bound by the terms hereof to the same extent as if it had executed and delivered this Agreement as of the date hereof. The Borrower shall promptly provide each Priority Debt Representative with a copy of each Collateral Trust Joinder executed and delivered pursuant to this Section 11.17; provided that the

failure to so deliver a copy of the Collateral Trust Joinder to any then existing Priority Debt Representative shall not affect the inclusion of such Person as a Grantor if the other requirements of this Section 11.17 are complied with.

(a) such compensation to the Collateral Trustee and its agents including attorneys as the Borrower and the Collateral Trustee may agree in writing from time to time;

(f) after the occurrence of any default under a Priority Debt Document, all costs and expenses incurred by the Collateral Trustee, its agents and any Priority Debt Representative in connection with any Enforcement Action subject to the Security Documents or any interest, right, power or remedy of the Collateral Trustee or in connection with any Enforcement Action or the proof, protection, administration or resolution of any claim based upon the Priority Obligations in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, including all fees and disbursements of attorneys, accountants, auditors, consultants, appraisers and other professionals engaged by the Collateral Trustee, its agents or the Priority Debt Representatives.

The agreements in this Section 11.18 will survive repayment of all other Priority Obligations and the removal or resignation of the Collateral Trustee and termination of this Agreement.

(d) Each Grantor agrees not to assert any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for any lost profits or special, indirect or consequential damages or (to the fullest extent a claim for punitive damages may lawfully be waived) any punitive damages arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any other Priority Debt Document or any agreement or instrument or transaction contemplated hereby or relating in any respect to any Indemnified Liability, and each of the Grantors hereby forever waives, releases and agrees not to ▇▇▇ upon any claim for any such lost profits or special, indirect, consequential or (to the fullest extent lawful) punitive damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.
