provided, however, that (x) in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding commenced by or against any Bridge Loan Party, the Controlling First Lien Pari Passu Debt Agent may file a claim, proof of claim and/or security, or statement of interest with respect to the First Lien Pari Passu Obligations owing to the holders of the First Lien Pari Passu Obligations, subject to and consistent with the limitations contained in this Agreement, (y) the Controlling First Lien Pari Passu Debt Agent may take such action (not adverse in any way to the priority status of the Liens on the Collateral securing the Bridge Loan Obligations or the rights of the Bridge Loan Agent to exercise any remedies in respect thereof) solely necessary to preserve or protect its Lien on the Collateral so long as such action is consistent with the terms and limitations on the Controlling First Lien Pari Passu Debt Agent and the other First Lien Pari Passu Secured Parties imposed by this Agreement, and (z) the Controlling First Lien Pari Passu Debt Agent may take any action to foreclose upon any such Collateral so long as (i) 180 days have elapsed from the date that the Controlling First Lien Pari Passu Debt Agent has given written notice to the Bridge Loan Agent of either (x) the occurrence of an “Event of Default” under and as defined in the Indenture consisting of nonpayment of any principal or interest then due under the First Lien Pari Passu Debt (an “First Lien Pari Passu Payment Default”) or (y) the occurrence of an “Event of Default” under and as defined in any First Lien Pari Passu Document other than any First Lien Pari Passu Payment Default, together with acceleration of the First Lien Pari Passu Obligations, (ii) the Bridge Loan Agent is not diligently pursuing in good faith the exercise of its enforcement rights or remedies against a material portion of such Collateral at the end of such 180-day period and (iii) the proceeds received by the Controlling First Lien Pari Passu Debt Agent or any other First Lien Pari Passu Secured Party in connection with such foreclosure action by the Controlling First Lien Pari Passu Debt Agent is applied pursuant to Section 4.1 hereof; provided that to the extent that the Bridge Loan Agent or any other Bridge Loan Claimholder is stayed or otherwise prohibited by law from exercising such rights or remedies

in respect of the relevant Collateral during such 180-day period, then the foregoing 180-day period shall be automatically extended by the number of days of such stay or prohibition.

(b) The Controlling First Lien Pari Passu Debt Agent, on behalf of itself and the other First Lien Pari Passu Secured Parties, agrees that it will not take or receive, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by setoff, counterclaim or in any other manner (whether pursuant to any enforcement, collection, execution, levy or foreclosure proceeding or otherwise), any Collateral or any proceeds of Collateral, in each case in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy (including set off), if any, with respect to any Collateral (or in respect of any such Collateral in the event of the occurrence of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding with respect to any Bridge Loan Party) unless and until the Discharge of Bridge Loan Obligations has occurred.

(i) the Controlling First Lien Pari Passu Debt Agent, for itself and on behalf of any other First Lien Pari Passu Secured Party, agrees that neither it nor any other First Lien Pari Passu Secured Party will take any action (or support any other Person in doing the same) that would hinder or interfere with any exercise of rights or remedies by the Bridge Loan Agent under the Bridge Loan Documents with respect to the Collateral, including any sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of the Collateral, whether by foreclosure or otherwise, unless otherwise prohibited hereunder;

(ii) the Controlling First Lien Pari Passu Debt Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other First Lien Pari Passu Secured Parties, hereby waives any and all rights it or such First Lien Pari Passu Secured Party may have as a junior lien creditor or otherwise to object to the manner in which the Bridge Loan Agent seeks to enforce, manage or collect the Bridge Loan Obligations or the Liens securing the Bridge Loan Obligations granted in any of the Collateral, regardless of whether any action or failure to act by or on behalf of the Bridge Loan Agent is adverse to the interests of the First Lien Pari Passu Secured Parties; and

(iii) the Controlling First Lien Pari Passu Debt Agent hereby acknowledges and agrees that no covenant, agreement or restriction contained in the applicable First Lien Pari Passu Documents shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights and remedies of the Bridge Loan Agent with respect to the Collateral as set forth in this Agreement and the Bridge Loan Documents.

Collateral or not of the type constituting Collateral shall be junior and subordinated to the Liens securing the Bridge Loan Obligations and such DIP Financing (and all obligations relating thereto, including any “carve-out” agreed to by the Bridge Loan Agent) on the same basis as the other Liens on the Collateral that secures the First Lien Pari Passu Obligations are so subordinated to the Liens thereon that secure the Bridge Loan Obligations under this Agreement, then until the Discharge of Bridge Loan Obligations has occurred, the Controlling First Lien Pari Passu Debt Agent, on behalf of itself and the other First Lien Pari Passu Secured Parties, agrees that it will raise no objection, and consents to such use of cash collateral or DIP Financing and will not request adequate protection or any other relief in connection therewith (except to the extent solely provided in this Section 5.1 or relating to the Collateral), and will subordinate its Liens in the Collateral to such DIP Financing (and all obligations relating thereto) on the same basis as the Liens on the Collateral that secure the First Lien Pari Passu Obligations are subordinated to the Liens thereon that secures the Bridge Loan Obligations under this Agreement, and agrees that written notice received three (3) Business Days prior to the entry of an order approving such usage of cash collateral or approving such financing on an interim basis shall be adequate notice; provided that the aforesaid agreements and consents of the Controlling First Lien Pari Passu Debt Agent, on behalf of itself and the other First Lien Pari Passu Secured Parties, shall not be conditional upon the Controlling First Lien Pari Passu Debt Agent receiving an Adequate Protection Lien in Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings under Canadian Bankruptcy Laws.

Section 5.4 Avoidance Issues.

If any Bridge Loan Claimholder is required in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise to turn over or otherwise pay to or to the estate of any Bridge Loan Party any amount (a “Bridge Loan Obligation Recovery”) received in respect of any Subject Collateral, then the Bridge Loan Obligations shall be reinstated to the extent of such Bridge Loan Obligation Recovery and the Bridge Loan Claimholders shall be entitled to receive payment in full in cash (including, in the case of any letter of credit, cash collateral therefor) with respect to all such recovered amounts. If this Agreement shall have been terminated prior to such Bridge Loan Obligation 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 or rights of the parties hereto. The Controlling First Lien Pari Passu Debt Agent and each First Lien Pari Passu Secured Party agree 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 (but with respect to the Controlling First Lien Pari Passu Debt Agent only to the extent not previously distributed by it to the holders of the Notes) for application in accordance with the priorities set forth in this Agreement.

Unless the Liens of the First Lien Pari Passu Secured Parties on such Collateral shall have been or concurrently are released, after the occurrence of any Discharge of Bridge Loan Obligations, the Bridge Loan Agent shall, to the extent that the same are then under the sole dominion and control of the Bridge Loan Agent and that such action is otherwise within the power and authority of the Bridge Loan Agent pursuant to the Bridge Loan Documents, at the request of the Controlling First Lien Pari Passu Debt Agent, cooperate with Grantors and the Controlling First Lien Pari Passu Debt Agent (at the expense of the Grantors) in permitting control of any Deposit Accounts to be transferred from the Bridge Loan Agent to the Controlling First Lien Pari Passu Debt Agent (or for other arrangements with respect to each such Deposit Account satisfactory to the Controlling First Lien Pari Passu Debt Agent to be made).

Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement or any document or instrument delivered in connection herewith by telecopy or “pdf” electronic file shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement or such other document or instrument, as applicable.

Section 8.14 Authorization. By its signature, each Person executing this Agreement on behalf of a party hereto represents and warrants to the other parties hereto that it is duly authorized to execute this Agreement.

Section 8.15 Construction. The terms of this Agreement were negotiated among business persons sophisticated in the area of business finance, and accordingly, in construing the terms of this Agreement, no rule or law which would require that this instrument be construed against the party who drafted this instrument shall be given any force or effect.

Section 8.16 No Third Party Beneficiaries. No other Person not a party to this Agreement, including any trustee-in-bankruptcy for, or bankruptcy estate of, or any unsecured creditor of any Grantor shall have or be entitled to assert rights or benefits hereunder. Nothing in this Agreement shall impair, as between any Bridge Loan Party and the Bridge Loan Agent, or as between the First Lien Pari Passu Parties and the Controlling First Lien Pari Passu Debt Agent, the respective obligations of the Bridge Loan Parties and the First Lien Pari Passu Parties to pay principal, interest, fees and all other amounts as provided in the respective Bridge Loan Documents and the First Lien Pari Passu Documents.

Section 8.17 Provisions Solely to Define Relative Rights. The provisions of this Agreement are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Bridge Loan Agent on the one hand and the Controlling First Lien Pari Passu Debt Agent and the First Lien Pari Passu Secured Parties, on the other hand. None of the Bridge Loan Parties, the First Lien Pari Passu Parties nor any other creditor thereof shall have any rights hereunder except as expressly set forth herein, and none of the Bridge Loan Parties or the First Lien Pari Passu Parties may rely on the terms hereof, except to the extent of rights and/or obligations expressly provided hereunder. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to or shall impair the obligations of any Bridge Loan Party or any First Lien Pari Passu Party, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay the Bridge Loan Obligations and the First Lien Pari Passu Obligations, respectively, as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms. Each of Bridge Loan Agent, the Controlling First Lien Pari Passu Debt Agent and the First Lien Pari Passu Secured Parties shall be responsible for managing its financial relationships with their respective First Lien Pari Passu Parties and Bridge Loan Parties, and none shall be deemed to be the agent of the other for any purpose. Any of the Bridge Loan Agent, Controlling First Lien Pari Passu Debt Agent and any First Lien Pari Passu Secured Party may alter, amend, supplement, release, discharge or otherwise modify any terms of its respective agreements with First Lien Pari Passu Parties and Bridge Loan Parties without notice to or consent of the other, including, without limitation, increasing the indebtedness under any such agreements or extending the time for repayment thereof. Any such alterations, amendments, supplements, releases, discharges, or modifications shall not affect the rights, remedies and/or duties of the Bridge Loan Agent (on behalf of itself and the Bridge Loan Claimholders) and the Controlling First Lien Pari Passu Debt Agent (on behalf of itself and the First Lien Pari Passu Claimholders) hereunder.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Intercreditor Agreement as of the date first written above.
