(b)    Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against any First Lien Obligor, subject to Sections 3.1(a)(1), 3.1(c) and 6.3(b), the First Lien Collateral Agent and the other First Lien Claimholders shall have the exclusive right to commence and maintain an Enforcement Action or otherwise exercise any rights and remedies (including set-off, recoupment and the right to “credit bid” their debt, except that the Second Lien Collateral Agent shall have the “credit bid” rights set forth in Section 3.1(c)(6)), and make determinations regarding the release, Disposition, or restrictions with respect to the Collateral, in each case without any consultation with or the consent of the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder; provided that any proceeds received by the First Lien Collateral Agent in excess of those necessary to achieve a Discharge of First Lien Obligations are distributed in accordance with Section 4.1. In commencing or maintaining any Enforcement Action or otherwise exercising rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral, the First Lien Collateral Agent and the other First Lien Claimholders may enforce the provisions of the First Lien Documents and exercise rights and remedies thereunder, all in such order and in such manner as they may determine in the exercise of their sole discretion in compliance with any applicable law and without consultation with the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder and regardless of whether any such exercise is adverse to the interest of any Second Lien Claimholder. Such exercise and enforcement shall include the rights of an agent appointed by them to sell or otherwise Dispose of Collateral upon foreclosure, to incur expenses in connection with such sale or other Disposition, and to exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured creditor under the UCC or other applicable law and of a secured creditor under Debtor Relief Laws of any applicable jurisdiction.
(c)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Second Lien Collateral Agent and any other Second Lien Claimholder may:
(1)    file a claim, proof of claim or statement of interest with respect to the Second Lien Obligations; provided that an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against any of the Second Lien Obligors by a Person other than a Second Lien Claimholder;
(2)    take any action in order to create, perfect, preserve or protect (but not enforce) its Lien on the Collateral to the extent (A) not adverse to the priority status of the Liens on the Collateral securing the First Lien Obligations, or the rights of the First Lien Collateral Agent or the other First Lien Claimholders to exercise rights and remedies in respect thereof, and (B) not otherwise inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, including the automatic release of Liens provided in Section 5.1;
(3)    file any necessary or appropriate responsive or defensive pleadings in opposition to any motion, claim, adversary proceeding or other pleading made by any Person objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of the claims of the Second Lien Claimholders, including any

19



claims or Liens secured by the Collateral, if any, in each case to the extent not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement;
(4)    vote on any plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan, arrangement, compromise or liquidation, and make filings and make any arguments and motions with respect to the Second Lien Obligations and the Collateral that are, in each case, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including Section 6.9(c); provided that no vote, or pleading relating to such vote, to accept or reject a plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan, arrangement, compromise or liquidation, no other document, agreement or proposal similar to the foregoing, and no filing, argument or motion by the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder may, in each case, be inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement;
(5)    exercise any of its rights or remedies with respect to the Collateral after the termination of the Standstill Period to the extent permitted by Section 3.1(a)(1); and
(6)    bid for or purchase any Collateral at any public, private or judicial foreclosure upon such Collateral initiated by the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder, or any sale of any Collateral during an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding; provided that such bid may not include a “credit bid” in respect of any Second Lien Obligations unless the cash proceeds of such bid are otherwise sufficient to cause the Discharge of First Lien Obligations.
(d)    Subject to Sections 3.1(a)(1), 3.1(c) and 6.3(b) the Second Lien Collateral Agent and each Second Lien Representative, for itself and on behalf of its Related Second Lien Claimholders:
(1)    agrees that it and its Related Second Lien Claimholders will not take any action that would hinder, delay, limit or prohibit any exercise of rights or remedies under the First Lien Documents or is otherwise prohibited hereunder, including any collection or Disposition of any Collateral, whether by foreclosure or otherwise, or that would limit, invalidate, avoid or set aside any Lien securing any First Lien Obligations or any First Lien Collateral Document or subordinate the priority of the First Lien Obligations to the Second Lien Obligations or grant the Liens securing the Second Lien Obligations equal ranking to the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations;
(2)    hereby waives any and all rights it or its Related Second Lien Claimholders may have as a junior Lien creditor or otherwise (whether arising under the UCC or under any other law) to object to the manner in which the First Lien Collateral Agent or the other First Lien Claimholders seek to enforce or collect the First Lien Obligations or the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations, regardless of whether any action or failure to act by or on behalf of the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholders is adverse to the interest of any Second Lien Claimholders; and
(3)    hereby acknowledges and agrees that no covenant, agreement or restriction contained in the Second Lien Collateral Documents or any other Second Lien Document shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights and remedies of the First Lien Collateral Agent or the other First Lien Claimholders with respect to the Collateral as set forth in this Agreement and the First Lien Documents.
(e)    The Second Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second Lien Claimholders may exercise rights and remedies as unsecured creditors against the Obligors that have guaranteed or granted Liens to secure the Second Lien Obligations in accordance with the terms of Initial Second Lien Documents and applicable law (other than initiating or joining in an involuntary case or proceeding under any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding with respect to any Obligor, prior to the termination of the Standstill Period or as otherwise prohibited pursuant to the second proviso in Section 3.1(a)(1)); provided that (i) any such exercise shall not be directly or indirectly inconsistent with or prohibited by the terms of this Agreement (including Section 6 and any provision prohibiting or restricting the Second Lien Claimholders from taking various actions or making various objections)

20



and (ii) in the event that any Second Lien Claimholder becomes a judgment Lien creditor in respect of any Collateral as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor with respect to the Second Lien Obligations, such judgment Lien shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement for all purposes (including in relation to the First Lien Obligations) as the other Liens securing the Second Lien Obligations are subject to this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder of the required payments of principal, premium, interest, fees and other amounts due under the Initial Second Lien Documents so long as such receipt is not subject to turnover pursuant to Section 4.2.
3.2    Agreement Among First Lien Claimholders; Agreement Among Second Lien Claimholders.

The Second Lien Collateral Agent shall be entitled to the benefit of all the exculpatory, indemnity and reimbursement provisions set forth in any Second Lien Document for the benefit of any “collateral agent” (or any other agent or similar representative) with respect to any exercise by the Second Lien Collateral Agent of any of the rights or remedies under this Agreement, including any such exercise of any right or remedy with respect to any Collateral, or any other action or inaction by it in its capacity as the Second Lien Collateral Agent.

22



prior to the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, the First Lien Collateral Agent is irrevocably authorized (at the cost of the Obligors in accordance with the terms of the applicable First Lien Financing Document and without any consent, sanction, authority or further confirmation from the Second Lien Collateral Agent, any other Second Lien Claimholder or any Obligor): (i) to release any of its Liens on any part of the Collateral or any other claim over the asset that is the subject of such Enforcement Action or such other exercise of rights or remedies, in which case the Liens or any other claim over the asset that is the subject of such Enforcement Action, if any, of the Second Lien Collateral Agent and each Second Lien Representative, for itself and for the benefit of its Related Second Lien Claimholders, shall be automatically, unconditionally and simultaneously released to the same extent as the Liens or other claims of the First Lien Collateral Agent and each First Lien Representative are so released (and the First Lien Collateral Agent is irrevocably authorized to execute and deliver or enter into any release of such Liens or claims that may, in the discretion of the First Lien Collateral Agent, be considered necessary or reasonably desirable in connection with such releases); and (ii) if the asset that is the subject of such Enforcement Action consists of the equity interests of any Obligor, to release (x) such Obligor and any subsidiary of such Obligor from all or any part of its First Lien Obligations, in which case such Obligor and any subsidiary of such Obligor shall be automatically, unconditionally and simultaneously released to the same extent from its Second Lien Obligations, and (y) any Liens or other claims on any assets of such Obligor and any subsidiary of such Obligor, in which case the Liens or other claims on such assets of the Second Lien Collateral Agent and each Second Lien Representative, for itself or for the benefit of its Related Second Lien Claimholders, shall be automatically, unconditionally and simultaneously released to the same extent as such Liens of the First Lien Collateral Agent and each First Lien Representative are so released (and the First Lien Collateral Agent is irrevocably authorized to execute and deliver or enter into any release of such Liens or claims that may, in the discretion of the First Lien Collateral Agent, be considered necessary or reasonably desirable in connection with such releases).

The proceeds of any such Disposition shall be applied in accordance with Section 4.1.
(b)    If in connection with any sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition (collectively, a “Disposition”) of any Collateral by any Obligor permitted under the terms of both the First Lien Financing Documents and the Second Lien Financing Documents (other than in connection with an Enforcement Action or other exercise of the First Lien Collateral Agent’s rights or remedies in respect of the Collateral, which shall be governed by Section 5.1(a) above), the First Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the First Lien Claimholders, releases any of its Liens on any part of the Collateral, or releases any Obligor from its obligations under its guaranty of the First Lien Obligations, in each case other than in connection with, or following, the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, then the Liens, if any, of the Second Lien Collateral Agent, for itself or for the benefit of the Second Lien Claimholders, on such Collateral, and the obligations of such Obligor under its guaranty of the Second Lien Obligations, shall be automatically, unconditionally and simultaneously released; provided that such release by the Second Lien Collateral Agent, for itself or for the benefit of the Second Lien Claimholders, shall not extend to or otherwise affect any of the rights of the Second Lien Claimholders to the proceeds from any such Disposition. The Second Lien Collateral Agent, for itself or on behalf of the Second Lien Claimholders, shall promptly execute and deliver to the First Lien Collateral Agent or such Obligor such termination statements, releases, letters of non-crystallization of any Second Lien Floating Charge, consent to dealing and other documents as the First Lien Collateral Agent or such Obligor may request as necessary or desirable to effectively confirm the foregoing releases upon delivery to the Second Lien Collateral Agent of copies of such termination statements, releases, letters of non-crystallization of any Second Lien Floating Charge, consent to dealing and other documents used to effect such release with respect to the Collateral securing the First Lien Obligations from a Responsible Officer of the Lux Borrower or the First Lien Collateral Agent and an officer’s

5.2    Insurance and Condemnation Awards. Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, the First Lien Collateral Agent shall have the sole and exclusive right, subject to the rights of the First Lien Obligors under the First Lien Financing Documents, to settle or adjust claims over any insurance policy covering the Collateral 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 Collateral. Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, and subject to the rights of the First Lien Obligors under the First Lien Financing 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 of the Collateral shall be paid to the First Lien Collateral Agent for the benefit of the First Lien Claimholders pursuant to the terms of the First Lien Documents, including any intercreditor agreement among the First Lien Collateral Agent and any of the First Lien Representatives (including, without limitation, for purposes of cash collateralization of commitments, First Lien Letters of Credit and obligations under First Lien Hedge Agreements governing any First Lien Secured Hedging Obligations) and thereafter, if the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, and subject to the rights of the Second Lien Obligors under the Second Lien Financing Documents, to the Second Lien Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Second Lien Claimholders to the extent required under the Second Lien Collateral Documents, and thereafter, if the Discharge of the Second Lien Obligations has occurred, to the owner of the subject property, as directed by the Lux Borrower or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, if the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholders shall, at any time, receive any proceeds of any such insurance policy or any such award or payment in contravention of this Agreement, it shall segregate and hold in trust and forthwith pay such proceeds over to the First Lien Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms of Section 4.2.

24



amendment and restatement, supplement, modification or Refinancing shall not, without the consent of the Second Lien Collateral Agent, contravene the provisions of this Agreement; provided, further, that notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5.3(a) and for the avoidance of doubt, the First Lien Financing Documents may be amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified and/or Refinanced from time to time in accordance with their terms in order to effect the making or provision of (x) any First Lien Incremental Facility and/or (y) any First Lien Replacement Term Loan or First Lien Replacement Revolving Facility (or similar term), in each case, as and to the extent provided in the First Lien Credit Agreement as in effect on the date hereof, without notice to, or the consent of, the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder.
(b)    The Second Lien Financing Documents may be amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified in accordance with their terms, and the Second Lien Financing Documents and any Second Lien Obligations thereunder may be Refinanced, in each case, without notice to, or the consent of the First Lien Collateral Agent or the other First Lien Claimholders (in each case, except to the extent such notice to or consent is otherwise expressly required under the First Lien Financing Documents), all without affecting the Lien subordination or other provisions of this Agreement; provided that the holders of such Refinancing Indebtedness execute a Joinder Agreement and prior to the Discharge of First Lien Obligations no such amendment, restatement, amendment and restatement, supplement, modification or Refinancing shall, without the consent of the First Lien Collateral Agent, contravene the provisions of this Agreement.

5.4    Confirmation of Subordination in Second Lien Collateral Documents. The Second Lien Collateral Agent, and each Second Lien Representative on behalf of itself and its Related Second Lien Claimholders, agrees that each Second Lien Collateral Document includes and shall include, as applicable, the following language (or language to similar effect approved by the First Lien Collateral Agent):
“Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the lien and security interest granted to the Second Lien Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Second Lien Collateral Agent hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of December 6, 2019 (as amended, restated, amended and

25



restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Intercreditor Agreement”), among, inter alia Mallinckrodt plc, Mallinckrodt International Finance S.A., Mallinckrodt CB LLC, Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as First Lien Collateral Agent and First Lien Credit Agreement Representative, Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB, as Second Lien Collateral Agent and Initial Second Lien Document Representative, and certain other Persons party or that may become party thereto from time to time. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control.”
5.5    Non-Fiduciary Bailee/Agent for Perfection; Shared Collateral Documents.
(a)    Each Collateral Agent agrees to hold that part of the Collateral that is in its possession or control (or in the possession or control of its agents or bailees) to the extent that possession or control thereof is taken to perfect a Lien thereon under the UCC or other applicable law (such Collateral being the “Pledged Collateral”) as gratuitous bailee and non-fiduciary agent on behalf of and for the benefit of the other Collateral Agent (such bailment being intended, among other things, to satisfy the requirements of Sections 8-106(d)(3), 8-301(a)(2) and 9-313(c) of the UCC) solely for the purpose of perfecting, or improving the priority of, the security interest granted under the First Lien Collateral Documents and the Second Lien Collateral Documents, as applicable, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.5; provided that, in the case of any such possession or control by the Second Lien Collateral Agent, the foregoing shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any restriction set forth herein on such possession or control or of any breach by the Second Lien Collateral Agent of any terms of this Agreement in respect of such possession or control.
(b)    Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, the First Lien Collateral Agent shall be entitled to deal with the Pledged Collateral in accordance with the terms of the First Lien Financing Documents as if the Liens of the Second Lien Collateral Agent under the Second Lien Collateral Documents did not exist. The rights of the Second Lien Collateral Agent shall at all times be subject to the terms of this Agreement and to the First Lien Collateral Agent’s rights under the First Lien Financing Documents.
(c)    No Collateral Agent shall have any obligation whatsoever to any Claimholder to ensure that the Pledged Collateral is genuine or owned by any of the Obligors or to preserve rights or benefits of any Person with respect thereto except as expressly set forth in this Section 5.5 or, in the case of the Second Lien Collateral Agent, the other provisions hereof (including the turnover provisions set forth in Section 4.2). The duties or responsibilities of each Collateral Agent under this Section 5.5 shall be limited solely to holding the Pledged Collateral as bailee in accordance with this Section 5.5 and, in the case of the First Lien Collateral Agent, delivering the Pledged Collateral to the Second Lien Collateral Agent upon a Discharge of First Lien Obligations as provided in paragraph (e) below or, in the case of the Second Lien Collateral Agent, delivering the Pledged Collateral to the First Lien Collateral Agent in accordance with the provisions hereof (including the turnover provisions set forth in Section 4.2).
(d)    Each Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of its Related Claimholders, hereby waives and releases the other Collateral Agent and each other Claimholder from all claims and liabilities arising pursuant to any Collateral Agent’s role under this Section 5.5 as gratuitous bailee and non-fiduciary agent with respect to the Pledged Collateral; provided that, in the case of any possession or control of any Pledged Collateral by the Second Lien Collateral Agent, the foregoing shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any restriction set forth herein on such possession or control or of any breach by the Second Lien Collateral Agent of any terms of this Agreement in respect of such possession or control. None of the First Lien Collateral Agent nor any other First Lien Claimholders shall have by reason of the First Lien Collateral Documents, the Second Lien Collateral Documents, the Shared Collateral Documents, this Agreement or any other document, a fiduciary relationship in respect of the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder, and it is understood and agreed that the interests of the First Lien Collateral Agent and the other First Lien Claimholders, on the one hand, and

26



the Second Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second Lien Claimholders, on the other hand, may differ and that the First Lien Collateral Agent and the other First Lien Claimholders shall be fully entitled to act in their own interest without taking into account the interests of the Second Lien Collateral Agent or the other Second Lien Claimholders.
(e)    Upon the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, the First Lien Collateral Agent shall deliver the remaining Pledged Collateral in its possession or control (if any) (or proceeds thereof) together with any necessary endorsements (such endorsement shall be without recourse and without any representation or warranty), first, to the Second Lien Collateral Agent, to the extent the Discharge of Second Lien Obligations has not occurred and second, upon the Discharge of Second Lien Obligations, to the Obligors to the extent no Obligations remain outstanding (in each case, so as to allow such Person to obtain possession or control of such Pledged Collateral) or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. Following the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, the First Lien Collateral Agent further agrees to take, at the expense of the Obligors (which expense reimbursement shall be subject to the provisions of the applicable First Lien Document), all other actions reasonably requested by the Second Lien Collateral Agent in connection with the Second Lien Collateral Agent obtaining a first-priority interest in the Pledged Collateral.
5.6    When Discharge of First Lien Obligations Deemed to Not Have Occurred. If, substantially concurrently with or after the Discharge of any Series of First Lien Obligations having occurred, any Borrower or any other First Lien Obligor enters into any Refinancing of any First Lien Financing Document evidencing a First Lien Obligation of such Series, which Refinancing is permitted hereby and by the terms of the First Lien Financing Documents of any other Series of First Lien Obligations then outstanding and by the terms of the Second Lien Financing Documents, then the Discharge of such Series of First Lien Obligations shall automatically be deemed for all purposes of this Agreement not to have occurred, and the obligations under such Refinancing of such First Lien Financing Document shall, subject to execution and delivery of a Joinder Agreement in accordance with Section 9.21, automatically be treated as First Lien Obligations of the Refinanced Series for all purposes of this Agreement, including for purposes of the Lien priorities and rights in respect of Collateral set forth herein, and the New First Lien Agent shall be a First Lien Representative of such Refinanced Series (and, if applicable in accordance with the definition of such term, the Directing First Lien Representative) for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon receipt of a notice from the Lux Borrower or any other First Lien Obligor stating that the Lux Borrower or such other First Lien Obligor has entered into a Refinancing of any First Lien Financing Document (which notice shall include the identity of the new First Lien Representative with respect thereto (such new First Lien Representative, the “New First Lien Agent”)), the Collateral Agent and each Authorized Representative shall promptly enter into such documents and agreements (including amendments or supplements to, or amendment and restatement of, this Agreement) as the Lux Borrower, such other First Lien Obligor or the New First Lien Agent shall reasonably request in order to provide to the New First Lien Agent the rights contemplated hereby, in each case consistent in all material respects with the terms of this Agreement. The New First Lien Agent shall agree in a writing addressed to the Collateral Agent, each other Authorized Representative and the other Claimholders to be bound by the terms of this Agreement, for itself and on behalf of its Related First Lien Claimholders.
5.7    Purchase Right.
(a)    Without prejudice to the enforcement of any of the First Lien Claimholder’s rights or remedies under this Agreement, any other First Lien Financing Documents, at law or in equity or otherwise, the First Lien Collateral Agent, and each First Lien Representative on behalf of itself and its Related First Lien Claimholders, agrees that at any time within thirty (30) days following (i) an acceleration of all the First Lien Obligations in accordance with the terms of the First Lien Financing Documents or (ii) the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding with respect to any Obligor, the Second Lien Claimholders may request, and upon such request, the First Lien Claimholders will offer each Second Lien Claimholder, the option to purchase at par the entire aggregate outstanding amount (but not less than the entire aggregate outstanding amount) of the

27



First Lien Obligations (and to assume the entire amount of unfunded commitments under the First Lien Financing Documents, if any), at the Purchase Price (together with the deposit of cash collateral as set forth below), without warranty or representation or recourse except as provided in Section 5.7(c), on a pro rata basis among the First Lien Claimholders. The “Purchase Price” will equal the sum of: (1) the principal amount of all loans, advances or similar extensions of credit included in the First Lien Obligations (including the unreimbursed amount of all issued letters of credit (including First Lien Letters of Credit), but excluding the undrawn amount of then outstanding letters of credit (including the undrawn amount of then outstanding First Lien Letters of Credit)), all accrued and unpaid interest (including Post-Petition Interest) thereon through the date of purchase and any prepayment penalties or premiums that would be applicable upon prepayment of the First Lien Obligations, (2) the net aggregate amount then owing to counterparties under First Lien Hedge Agreements governing the First Lien Secured Hedging Obligations and First Lien Banking Services Agreements, including, in the case of such First Lien Hedge Agreements, all amounts owing to the counterparties as a result of the termination (or early termination) thereof, and (3) all accrued and unpaid fees, expenses and other amounts owed to the First Lien Claimholders under the First Lien Documents on the date of purchase. The Purchase Price shall be accompanied by delivery to the First Lien Collateral Agent of cash collateral in immediately available funds, to be deposited under the sole dominion and control of the First Lien Collateral Agent, in such amount as the First Lien Collateral Agent determines is reasonably necessary to secure the First Lien Claimholders in connection with any issued and outstanding First Lien Letters of Credit under the First Lien Financing Documents but in any event not to exceed 102% of the sum of (x) the aggregate undrawn amount of all such First Lien Letters of Credit outstanding pursuant to the First Lien Financing Documents and (y) the aggregate facing and similar fees which will accrue thereon through the stated maturity of the First Lien Letters of Credit (assuming no drawings thereon before stated maturity). It is understood and agreed that (i) at the time any facing or similar fees are owing to an issuer with respect to any First Lien Letter of Credit, the First Lien Collateral Agent may apply amounts deposited with it as described above to pay same and (ii) upon any drawing under any First Lien Letter of Credit, the First Lien Collateral Agent shall apply amounts deposited with it as described above to repay the respective unpaid drawing. After giving effect to any payment made as described above in this paragraph (a), those amounts (if any) then on deposit with the First Lien Collateral Agent as cash collateral, described in this paragraph (a) which exceed 102% of the sum of the aggregate undrawn amount of all then outstanding First Lien Letters of Credit and the aggregate facing and similar fees (to the respective issuers) which will accrue thereon through the stated maturity of the then outstanding First Lien Letters of Credit (assuming no drawings thereon before stated maturity), shall be returned to the respective purchaser or purchasers, as their interests appear. Furthermore, at such time as all First Lien Letters of Credit have been cancelled, expired or been fully drawn, as the case may be, and after all applications described above in this paragraph (a) have been made, any excess cash collateral then on deposit with the First Lien Collateral Agent as described above in this paragraph (a) (and not previously applied or released as provided above) shall be returned to the respective purchaser or purchasers, as their interests appear.
(b)    The Second Lien Claimholders may irrevocably accept such offer within thirty (30) days of the receipt thereof by the Second Lien Collateral Agent and the parties shall endeavor to close promptly thereafter to the extent such offer has been accepted. The Second Lien Claimholders shall only be permitted to acquire the entire amount of the First Lien Obligations pursuant to this Section 5.7, and may not acquire less than all of such First Lien Obligations. If the Second Lien Claimholders timely accept such offer, the right to purchase the First Lien Obligations shall be exercised pursuant to documentation mutually acceptable to the First Lien Collateral Agent, each First Lien Representative, the Second Lien Collateral Agent and each Second Lien Representative. If the Second Lien Claimholders reject such offer (or fail to accept such offer within the required time frame), the First Lien Claimholders shall have no further obligations pursuant to this Section 5.7 and may take any further actions in their sole discretion in accordance with the First Lien Documents and this Agreement. Each First Lien Claimholder will retain all rights to indemnification and expense reimbursement provided in the relevant First Lien Documents for all claims and other amounts relating to periods prior to the purchase of the First Lien Obligations pursuant to this Section 5.7. Upon the consummation of the purchase and sale of the First Lien Obligations, the First Lien Collateral Agent shall, at the request of the Second Lien Collateral Agent, resign from its role in accordance with the applicable First Lien Document (and comply with any provisions contained

28



therein with respect to successors to such role or the powers granted in connection with such role) and cooperate with an orderly transition of Liens in the Collateral.
(c)    The purchase and sale of the First Lien Obligations under this Section 5.7 will be without recourse and without representation or warranty of any kind by the First Lien Claimholders, except that each First Lien Claimholder shall severally and not jointly represent and warrant to the Second Lien Claimholders that on the date of the purchase, immediately before giving effect to such purchase:
(1)    the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest on the First Lien Obligations, and the fees, expenses and other amounts in respect thereof owed to the respective First Lien Claimholders, are as stated in any assignment agreement prepared in connection with the purchase and sale of the First Lien Obligations;
(2)    that such First Lien Claimholder owns free and clear of any liens and has the right to transfer the First Lien Obligations purported to be owned by it; and
(3)    that such First Lien Claimholder has the right to assign the First Lien Obligations being assigned by it and its assignment has been duly authorized and delivered.
SECTION 6.    Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings.
6.1    Finance and Sale Issues.
(a)    Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, if any Obligor shall be subject to any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and the First Lien Collateral Agent shall desire to permit (or not object to) the use of “Cash Collateral” (as such term is defined in Section 363(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar Debtor Relief Law) on which the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other creditor has a Lien or to permit (or not object to) any Obligor to obtain financing, whether from the First Lien Claimholders or any other Person, under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar Debtor Relief Law (“DIP Financing”), then the Second Lien Collateral Agent, and each Second Lien Representative on behalf of itself and its Related Second Lien Claimholders, agrees that it and its Related Second Lien Claimholders will raise no objection to, or oppose or contest (or join with or support any third party opposing, objecting or contesting), such Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing (including any proposed orders for such Cash Collateral use and/or DIP Financing which are acceptable to the First Lien Collateral Agent) and it and its Related Second Lien Claimholders will be deemed to have consented to such Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing (including such proposed orders), and to the extent the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations are subordinated to or secured equally and ratably with such DIP Financing, the Second Lien Collateral Agent will subordinate its Liens in the Collateral to the Liens securing such DIP Financing (and all obligations relating thereto and any customary “carve-out” for professional and statutory fees agreed to on behalf of the First Lien Claimholders by the First Lien Collateral Agent) and to all adequate protection Liens granted to the First Lien Claimholders on the same basis as the Liens securing the Second Lien Obligations are subordinated to the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations under this Agreement and will not request adequate protection or any other relief in connection therewith (except as expressly agreed by the First Lien Collateral Agent or to the extent permitted by Section 6.3); provided that the Second Lien Collateral Agent and the Second Lien Claimholders retain the right to object to any ancillary agreements or arrangements regarding the use of Cash Collateral or the DIP Financing that require a specific treatment of a claim in respect of the Second Lien Obligations for purposes of a plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan. The Second Lien Collateral Agent, and each Second Lien Representative on behalf of itself and its Related Second Lien Claimholders, agrees that none of them shall offer to provide, administer, or syndicate any DIP Financing to any Obligor unless (i) the application of the proceeds of such DIP Financing would result in the Discharge of First Lien Obligations on the date any funds provided under such DIP Financing are first drawn, (ii) the provision of such DIP Financing is consented to by the Directing First Lien Representative, or (iii) (A) any Liens securing such DIP Financing are subordinated to the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations and (B) no First Lien

29



Claimholder has offered (after being given the initial opportunity with a reasonable period of time to respond) to provide alternative DIP Financing prior to the Second Lien Claimholders’ offering to provide, administer, or syndicate such a junior DIP Financing.
(b)    The Second Lien Collateral Agent and each Second Lien Representative, for itself and on behalf of its Related Second Lien Claimholders, agrees that it and its Related Second Lien Claimholders will not seek consultation rights in connection with, and will raise no objection or oppose or contest (or join with or support any third party objecting, opposing or contesting), a motion to sell, liquidate or otherwise Dispose of Collateral under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code if the First Lien Collateral Agent has consented to (or not objected to) such sale, liquidation or other Disposition; provided that (1) to the extent the net cash proceeds of such sale or other Disposition are used to pay the principal amount of Indebtedness for borrowed money constituting First Lien Obligations, or to reimburse disbursements under, or cash collateralize the face amount of, the First Lien Letters of Credit constituting First Lien Obligations, the Liens of the Second Lien Claimholders shall attach to any remaining proceeds and (2) such motion does not impair the rights of the Second Lien Claimholders to credit bid under Section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code (provided that the First Lien Obligations are paid in cash in full in connection with any such credit bid by the Second Lien Claimholders).
6.2    Relief from the Automatic Stay. Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, the Second Lien Collateral Agent, and each Second Lien Representative on behalf of itself and its Related Second Lien Claimholders agrees that none of them shall (a) seek (or support any other Person seeking) relief from or modification of the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of any of the Collateral, in each case without the prior written consent of the First Lien Collateral Agent, or (b) oppose (or support any other Person in opposing) any request by the First Lien Collateral Agent for relief from or modification of such stay.
6.3    Adequate Protection.
(a)    The Second Lien Collateral Agent, and each Second Lien Representative on behalf of itself and its Related Second Lien Claimholders, agrees that none of them shall contest (or support any other Person contesting):
(i)    any request by the First Lien Collateral Agent or the other First Lien Claimholders for adequate protection under any Debtor Relief Law;
(ii)    any objection by the First Lien Collateral Agent or the other First Lien Claimholders to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on the First Lien Collateral Agent or the other First Lien Claimholders claiming a lack of adequate protection with respect to the Collateral; or
(iii)    the allowance and/or payment of interest, fees or other amounts to the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder under Section 506(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or as adequate protection under Section 361 of the Bankruptcy Code.
(b)    Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions in this Section 6.3, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding:
(i)    if the First Lien Claimholders (or any subset thereof) are granted adequate protection in the form of a Lien on additional or replacement collateral in connection with any use of Cash Collateral or DIP Financing, then the Second Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders, may seek or request adequate protection in the form of a Lien on such additional or replacement collateral, which Lien will be subordinated to the Liens securing and providing adequate protection for the First Lien Obligations and such use of Cash Collateral or DIP Financing (and

30



all obligations relating thereto) on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Second Lien Obligations will be so subordinated to the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations under this Agreement; and
(ii)    the Second Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second Lien Claimholders shall only be permitted to seek adequate protection with respect to their respective rights in the Collateral in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in the form of (A) additional collateral; provided that as adequate protection for the First Lien Obligations, the First Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the First Lien Claimholders, is also granted a Lien on such additional collateral that is senior to any Lien granted to the Second Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second Lien Claimholders; (B) replacement Liens on the Collateral; provided that as adequate protection for the First Lien Obligations, the First Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the First Lien Claimholders, is also granted replacement Liens on the Collateral that are senior to any Lien granted to the Second Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second Lien Claimholders; (C) an administrative expense claim; provided that (1) as adequate protection for the First Lien Obligations, the First Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the First Lien Claimholders, is also granted an administrative expense claim that is senior and prior to the administrative expense claim of the Second Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second Lien Claimholders and (2) if the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder is granted an administrative expense claim as adequate protection, the Second Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders, shall irrevocably agree, pursuant to Section 1129(a)(9) of the Bankruptcy Code, in any stipulation and/or order granting such adequate protection administrative expense claim, that such administrative expense claim may be paid under any plan of reorganization in any combination of cash, debt, equity or other property having a value on the effective date of such plan equal to the allowed amount of such claims; and (D) cash payments with respect to current fees and expenses; provided that (1) as adequate protection for the First Lien Obligations, the First Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the First Lien Claimholders, is also granted cash payments with respect to current fees and expenses and (2) the First Lien Collateral Agent may object to the amounts of fees and expenses sought by the Second Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second Lien Claimholders; and (E) cash payments with respect to interest on the Second Lien Obligations; provided that (1) as adequate protection for the First Lien Obligations, the First Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the First Lien Claimholders, is also granted cash payments with respect to interest on the First Lien Obligation represented by it and (2) such cash payments do not exceed an amount equal to the interest accruing on the principal amount of Second Lien Obligations outstanding on the date such relief is granted at the interest rate under the applicable Second Lien Documents and accruing from the date the Second Lien Collateral Agent is granted such relief. If any Second Lien Claimholder is entitled by order of a court of competent jurisdiction to receive or receives adequate protection payments for post-petition interest and/or fees and expenses in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding (“Second Lien Adequate Protection Payments”), and the First Lien Claimholders do not receive payment in full in cash of all First Lien Obligations upon the effectiveness of the plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan for, or conclusion of, that Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, then an amount shall be paid over by Second Lien Claimholders to the First Lien Claimholders (the “Pay-Over Amount”) equal to the lesser of (x) the Second Lien Adequate Protection Payments received by the Second Lien Claimholders and (y) the amount of the short fall (the “Short-Fall”) in payment in full of the First Lien Obligations; provided that to the extent any portion of the Short-Fall represents payments received by the First Lien Claimholders in the form of promissory notes, equity or other property equal in value to the cash paid in respect of the Pay-Over Amount, the First Lien Claimholders shall, upon receipt of the Pay-Over Amount, transfer those promissory notes, equity or other property, equal in value to the cash paid in respect of the Pay-Over Amount, to the applicable Second Lien Claimholders pro rata in exchange for the Pay-Over Amount. It is understood and agreed that nothing in this Section 6.3(b) shall modify or otherwise affect the other agreements by or on behalf of the Second Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second Lien Claimholders set forth in this Agreement (including the agreements to raise no objection to, or oppose or contest, that are set forth in Section 6.1). To the extent the First Lien Collateral Agent is not granted adequate protection

31



in the applicable form required pursuant to this Section 6.3(b)(ii), any amounts recovered by or distributed to the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder pursuant to or as a result of any such additional collateral, any such replacement Lien, any such administrative expense claim or any such cash payment shall be subject to Section 4.2.
6.4    No Waiver. Subject to Section 6.7(b), nothing contained herein shall prohibit or in any way limit the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder from objecting in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise to any action taken by the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholders, including the seeking by the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholders of adequate protection or the asserting by the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholders of any of its rights and remedies under the Second Lien Financing Documents or otherwise. Without limiting the foregoing, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the First Lien Claimholders shall not be deemed to have consented to, and expressly retain their rights to object to, the grant of adequate protection in the form of cash payments to the Second Lien Claimholders made pursuant to Section 6.3(b).
6.5    Reinstatement. If any First Lien Claimholder is required in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise to turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of any Obligor any amount paid in respect of First Lien Obligations (a “Recovery”), then such First Lien Claimholder shall be entitled to a reinstatement of its First Lien Obligations with respect to such recovered amounts on the date of such Recovery, and from and after the date of such reinstatement the Discharge of First Lien Obligations shall be deemed not to have occurred for all purposes hereunder. If this Agreement shall have been terminated prior to such Recovery, this Agreement shall be reinstated in full force and effect, and such prior termination shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the obligations of the parties hereto from such date of reinstatement. Any amounts received by the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder on account of the Second Lien Obligations after the termination of this Agreement shall, upon a reinstatement of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 6.5, be held in trust for and paid over to the First Lien Collateral Agent for the benefit of the First Lien Claimholders, for application to the reinstated First Lien Obligations in accordance with the First Lien Financing Documents and any intercreditor agreement among the First Lien Collateral Agent and any First Lien Representatives, if then in effect. This Section 6.5 shall survive termination of this Agreement.
6.6    Reorganization Securities. If, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, debt obligations of the reorganized debtor secured by Liens upon any property of the reorganized debtor are distributed pursuant to a plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan, arrangement, compromise or liquidation or similar dispositive restructuring plan, both on account of First Lien Obligations and on account of Second Lien Obligations, then, to the extent the debt obligations distributed on account of the First Lien Obligations and on account of the Second Lien Obligations are secured by Liens upon the same property, the provisions of this Agreement will survive the distribution of such debt obligations pursuant to such plan and will apply with like effect to the Liens securing such debt obligations.
6.7    Post-Petition Interest.
(a)    The Second Lien Collateral Agent and each Second Lien Representative, for itself and on behalf of its Related Second Lien Claimholders, agrees that neither it nor its Related Second Lien Claimholders shall oppose or seek to challenge (or join with any other Person opposing or challenging) any claim by the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of First Lien Obligations consisting of Post-Petition Interest. Regardless of whether any such claim for Post-Petition Interest is allowed or allowable, and without limiting the generality of the other provisions of this Agreement, this Agreement expressly is intended to include, and does include the “rule of explicitness,” and is intended to provide the First Lien Claimholders with the right to receive payment of all Post-Petition Interest through distributions made pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement even though such Post-Petition Interest may not be not allowed or allowable against the bankruptcy estate of any Borrower or any other Obligor under

32



Section 502(b)(2) or Section 506(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or under any other provision of the Bankruptcy Code or any other Debtor Relief Law.
(b)    Subject to Section 6.3(b), none of the First Lien Collateral Agent nor any of the First Lien Claimholders shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of Second Lien Obligations consisting of Post-Petition Interest to the extent of the value of the Lien of the Second Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Second Lien Claimholders, on the Collateral (after taking into account the amount of the First Lien Obligations).
6.8    Waivers. (a) The Second Lien Collateral Agent, and each Second Lien Representative for itself and on behalf of its Related Second Lien Claimholders, waives any claim it or its Related Second Lien Claimholders may hereafter have against any First Lien Claimholder arising out of (a) the election of any First Lien Claimholder of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code or (b) any cash collateral or financing arrangement, or any grant of a security interest in connection with the Collateral, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding so long as such actions are not in express contravention of the terms of this Agreement.
(b)     The Second Lien Collateral Agent, and each Second Lien Representative for itself and on behalf of its Related Second Lien Claimholders, agrees that it will not assert or enforce any claim under Section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of any other Debtor Relief Law senior to or on a parity with the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations for costs or expenses of preserving or disposing of any Collateral.
6.9    Separate Grants of Security and Separate Classification; Voting on Plan. The Second Lien Collateral Agent and each Second Lien Representative, for itself and on behalf of its Related Second Lien Claimholders, and the First Lien Collateral Agent and each First Lien Representative, for itself and on behalf of its Related First Lien Claimholders, acknowledges and agrees that:
(a)    the grants of Liens pursuant to the First Lien Collateral Documents and the Second Lien Collateral Documents constitute, and, in the case of the Shared Collateral Documents, are intended to constitute, two separate and distinct grants of Liens;
(b)    because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Collateral (including the Shared Collateral), the Second Lien Obligations are fundamentally different from the First Lien Obligations and must, subject to applicable law, be separately classified in any plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan proposed or adopted in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding; and
(c)    the Second Lien Claimholders agree that they will not propose, support or vote in favor of any plan of reorganization unless such plan (i) provides for the payment in full in cash of all the First Lien Obligations or (ii) is supported by the First Lien Claimholders required under applicable law to approve a plan.
To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, if it is held that the claims of the First Lien Claimholders and the Second Lien Claimholders in respect of the Collateral (including the Shared Collateral) constitute only one secured claim (rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims), then each of the parties hereto hereby acknowledges and agrees that, subject to Sections 2.1 and 4.1, all distributions shall be made as if there were separate classes of senior and junior secured claims against the Obligors in respect of the Collateral (including the Shared Collateral) (with the effect being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the Second Lien Claimholders), the First Lien Claimholders shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them in respect of principal, pre-petition interest and other claims, all amounts owing (or that would be owing if there were such separate classes of senior and junior secured claims) in respect of Post-Petition Interest,

33



including any additional interest payable pursuant to the First Lien Documents arising from or related to a default, regardless of whether any such claim is allowed or allowable in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, before any distribution is made in respect of the claims held by the Second Lien Claimholders with respect to the Collateral (including the Shared Collateral)), with the Second Lien Collateral Agent and each Second Lien Representative, for itself and on behalf of its Related Second Lien Claimholders, hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the First Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the First Lien Claimholders, Collateral (including the Shared Collateral) or proceeds of Collateral (including the Shared Collateral) or any other distribution (whether or not expressly characterized as such) in respect of the Collateral, otherwise received or receivable by them to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing the claim or recovery of the Second Lien Claimholders.
6.10    Effectiveness in Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings. The parties acknowledge that this Agreement is a “subordination agreement” under Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and under comparable provisions of any other applicable Debtor Relief Law, which will be effective before, during and after the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. All references in this Agreement to any Obligor will include such Person as a debtor-in-possession and any receiver or trustee for such Person in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.
SECTION 7.    Reliance; Waivers; Etc.
7.1    Reliance. Other than any reliance on the terms of this Agreement, the First Lien Collateral Agent, and each First Lien Representative on behalf of itself and its Related First Lien Claimholders, acknowledges that it and its Related First Lien Claimholders have, independently and without reliance on the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder, and based on documents and information deemed by them appropriate, made their own credit analysis and decision to enter into each of the First Lien Documents (as applicable) and be bound by the terms of this Agreement, and they will continue to make their own credit decision in taking or not taking any action under the First Lien Documents or this Agreement.

(c)    The Second Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second Lien Claimholders shall have no duty to the First Lien Collateral Agent or any of the other First Lien Claimholders, and the First Lien Collateral Agent and the other First Lien Claimholders shall have no duty to the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any of the other Second Lien Claimholders, to act or refrain from acting in a manner which allows, or results in, the occurrence or continuance of an event of default or default under any agreements with any Obligor (including the First Lien Financing Documents and the Second Lien Financing Documents, but in each case other than this Agreement), regardless of any knowledge thereof which they may have or be charged with.
7.3    No Waiver of Lien Priorities.
(a)    No right of the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholders, or any of them, to enforce any provision of this Agreement or of any First Lien Document shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of any Obligor or by any act or failure to act by the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder, or by any noncompliance by any Person with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Agreement, any of the First Lien Documents or any of the Second Lien Documents, regardless of any knowledge thereof which the First Lien Collateral Agent or the other First Lien Claimholders, or any of them, may have or be otherwise charged with.
(b)    Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph (a) (but subject to the rights of the First Lien Obligors under the First Lien Documents and subject to the provisions of Section 5.3(a)), the First Lien Collateral Agent and the other First Lien Claimholders, or any of them, may at any time and from time to time in accordance with the First Lien Documents and/or applicable law, without the consent of, or notice to, the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholders, without incurring any liabilities to the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholders and without impairing or releasing the Lien priorities and other benefits provided in this Agreement (even if any right of subrogation or other right or remedy of the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholders is affected, impaired or extinguished thereby) do any one or more of the following:

(c)    Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, the Second Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and its Related Second Lien Claimholders, agrees not to assert and hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any right to demand, request, plead or otherwise assert or otherwise claim the benefit of, any marshalling, appraisal, valuation or other similar right that may otherwise be available under applicable law with respect to the Collateral or any other similar rights a junior secured creditor may have under applicable law.
7.4    Waiver of Liability.
(a)    The Second Lien Collateral Agent, and each Second Lien Representative on behalf of itself and its Related Second Lien Claimholders, agrees that the First Lien Collateral Agent and the other First Lien Claimholders shall have no liability to the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholders, and the Second Lien Collateral Agent, and each Second Lien Representative on behalf of itself and its Related Second Lien Claimholders, hereby waives any claim against the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder, arising out of any and all actions which the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholders may take or permit or omit to take with respect to: (i) the First Lien Documents (including, without limitation, any failure to perfect or obtain perfected security interests in the First Lien Collateral), (ii) the collection of the First Lien Obligations or (iii) the foreclosure upon, or sale, liquidation or other Disposition of, any First Lien Collateral. The Second Lien Collateral Agent, and each Second Lien Representative on behalf of itself and its Related Second Lien Claimholders, also agrees that the First Lien Collateral Agent and the other First Lien Claimholders have no duty, express or implied, fiduciary or otherwise, to them in respect of the maintenance or preservation of the First Lien Collateral, the First Lien Obligations or otherwise. Neither the First Lien Collateral Agent nor any other First Lien Claimholder nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents will be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so, or will be under any obligation to sell or otherwise Dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Obligor or upon the request of the Second Lien Collateral Agent, any other Second Lien Claimholder or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. Without limiting the foregoing, the Second Lien Collateral Agent, and each Second Lien Representative on behalf of itself and its Related Second Lien Claimholders, agrees that neither the First Lien Collateral Agent nor any other First Lien Claimholder (in directing the First Lien Collateral Agent to take any action with respect to the Collateral) shall have any duty or obligation to realize first upon any type of Collateral or to sell or otherwise Dispose of all or any portion of the Collateral in any manner, including as a result of the application of the principles of marshaling or otherwise, that would maximize the return to any First Lien Claimholders or any Second Lien Claimholders, notwithstanding that the order and timing of any such realization, sale or other Disposition may affect the amount of proceeds actually received by such Claimholders from such realization, sale or other Disposition.
(b)    With respect to any share of the First Lien Obligations or Second Lien Obligations owned by it, the First Lien Collateral Agent and the Second Lien Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder as, and shall be subject to the same obligations and liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein for, any other Claimholder, all as if the First Lien Collateral Agent or Second Lien Collateral Agent, as applicable, were not appointed to act in such capacity under the terms of the First Lien

36



Financing Documents or Second Lien Financing Documents, as the case may be. The term “Claimholders” or any similar term shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include the First Lien Collateral Agent and the Second Lien Collateral Agent, each in its individual capacity as a First Lien Claimholder or Second Lien Claimholder, as applicable. Each of the First Lien Collateral Agent and the Second Lien Collateral Agent and its respective Affiliates may lend money and make other extensions of credit to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Obligors or any of their Affiliates as if such person were not appointed to act in such capacity under the terms of the First Lien Financing Documents or Second Lien Financing Documents, as the case may be, and without any duty to account therefor to any other Claimholder.
7.5    Obligations Unconditional. All rights, interests, agreements and obligations of the First Lien Collateral Agent and the other First Lien Claimholders and the Second Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second Lien Claimholders, respectively, hereunder (including the Lien priorities established hereby) shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of:
(a)    any lack of validity or enforceability of any First Lien Documents or any Second Lien Documents;
(b)    any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other terms of, all or any of the First Lien Obligations or Second Lien Obligations, or any amendment or waiver or other modification, including any increase in the amount thereof, whether by course of conduct or otherwise, of the terms of any First Lien Document or any Second Lien Document;
(c)    any exchange of any security interest in any Collateral or any other collateral, or any amendment, waiver or other modification, whether in writing or by course of conduct or otherwise, of all or any of the First Lien Obligations or Second Lien Obligations or any guaranty thereof;

(e)    any other circumstances which otherwise might constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Obligor in respect of the First Lien Collateral Agent, any other First Lien Claimholder, the First Lien Obligations, the Second Lien Collateral Agent, any other Second Lien Claimholder or the Second Lien Obligations in respect of this Agreement.
SECTION 8.    The Second Lien Collateral Agent.
Each Second Lien Claimholder (including the holders of the Initial Second Lien Notes issued under the Initial Second Lien Document, by their acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement and the Second Lien Collateral Documents and their direction to the Initial Second Lien Document Representative to enter into this Agreement) hereby irrevocably appoints the Second Lien Collateral Agent to act on its behalf as the Second Lien Collateral Agent hereunder and under each of the other Second Lien Collateral Documents, and authorizes the Second Lien Collateral Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Second Lien Collateral Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, including for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any Obligor to secure any of the Second Lien Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto.

(b)    with respect to any Second Lien Representative, the other Second Lien Claimholders and the Second Lien Obligations of any Series, upon the Discharge of such Series of Second Lien Obligations.

Each waiver of the terms of this Agreement, if any, shall be a waiver only with respect to the specific instance involved and shall in no way impair the rights of the parties making such waiver or the obligations of the other parties owed to such party in any other respect or at any other time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Obligor shall have any right to consent to or approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement except (x) to the extent such Obligor’s rights are directly and adversely affected by such amendment, modification or waiver or (y) to the extent applicable to such Obligor, with respect to any provision identified in Section 9.16; provided, however, that the Lux Borrower shall be given notice of any amendment, modification or waiver of this Agreement promptly after the effectiveness thereof (it being understood that the failure to deliver such notice to the Lux Borrower shall in no way impact the effectiveness of any such amendment, modification or waiver).

Claimholders.  The provisions of this Agreement are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the First Lien Collateral Agent and the other First Lien Claimholders, on the one hand, and the Second Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second Lien Claimholders, on the other hand.  None of the Obligors shall have any rights hereunder and no Obligor may rely on the terms hereof, other than any provision hereof expressly preserving any right of, or directly affecting, any Obligor under this Agreement, any First Lien Document or any Second Lien Document, including Sections 3.1 (solely as to the definition of “Standstill Period”), 4.1, 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.5(c), 5.5(e), 5.6, 5.7, 6.1, 6.2, 9.1, 9.2, 9.3, 9.7, 9.8, 9.9, 9.10, 9.11, 9.13, 9.14, 9.15, this Section 9.16, Sections 9.17, 9.18, 9.21, 9.22 and 9.23.

Unless otherwise expressly stated, if a party may not take an action under this Agreement, then it may not take that action indirectly, or support any other Person in taking that action directly or indirectly. “Taking an action indirectly” means taking an action that is not expressly prohibited for the party but is intended to have substantially the same effects as the prohibited action; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 9.17 shall be deemed to limit the right of any party hereto to vote on any plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan, arrangement, compromise or liquidation or similar dispositive restructuring plan in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding to the extent not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement.
9.18    Obligors; Additional Obligors.

The parties hereto further agree that, notwithstanding any failure to take the actions required by the immediately preceding sentence, each Person which becomes a “Subsidiary Loan Party” as defined in the First Lien Credit Agreement or a “Guarantor” as defined in the Initial Second Lien Document (or any similar term in any other First Lien Financing Document or Second Lien Financing Document) at any time shall be subject to the provisions hereof as fully as if same constituted an Obligor party hereto and had complied with the requirements of the immediately preceding sentence.
9.19    Right of First Lien Collateral Agent to Continue.

Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence of this Section 9.19, any Person serving as a First Lien Collateral Agent shall be entitled to continue to so serve in such capacity (including to continue to perform any of such First Lien Collateral Agent’s rights, obligations, and/or duties) even if any such Person has resigned as a First Lien Representative, the Second Lien Collateral Agent or a Second Lien Representative (as applicable), but such resignation has not become effective for any reason, including because a successor First Lien Representative, Second Lien Collateral Agent or Second Lien Representative (as applicable) has not been appointed or has accepted such appointment, without any liability to any of the First Lien Claimholders or Second Lien Claimholders by virtue of any such resignation and any of the circumstances relating in any manner whatsoever to such resignation.
9.20    Second Lien Claimholders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, it is understood and agreed that this Agreement only applies to the Second Lien Claimholders in their capacities as holders of the Second Lien Obligations. Without limiting the foregoing, this Agreement does not restrict or

43



apply to the Second Lien Claimholders in their capacities as holders of any Indebtedness or other obligations of the Obligors other than the Second Lien Obligations, or in their capacities as holders of equity interests of the Obligors.
9.21    Additional Lien Obligations. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each First Lien Financing Document and each Second Lien Financing Document, the Obligors will be permitted from time to time to designate as an additional holder of First Lien Obligations and/or Second Lien Obligations hereunder each Person that is, or that becomes or is to become, the holder of any Additional Lien Obligations (or the Additional Lien Obligations Agent in respect of such Additional Lien Obligations). Upon the issuance or incurrence of any such Additional Lien Obligations:
(a)    the Lux Borrower shall deliver to each of the First Lien Collateral Agent and the Second Lien Collateral Agent a certificate of a Responsible Officer stating that the applicable Obligors intend to enter or have entered into an Additional Lien Obligations Agreement and certifying that the issuance or incurrence of such Additional Lien Obligations and the Liens securing such Additional Lien Obligations are permitted by the First Lien Financing Documents, the Second Lien Financing Documents and each then existing Additional First Lien Obligations Agreement and Additional Second Lien Obligations Agreement. Each of the Additional Lien Obligations Agents, the First Lien Collateral Agent and the Second Lien Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely conclusively on the determination of the Lux Borrower that such issuance and/or incurrence is permitted under the First Lien Financing Documents, the Second Lien Financing Documents and each then existing Additional First Lien Obligations Agreement and Additional Second Lien Obligations Agreement if such determination is set forth in such Responsible Officer’s certificate delivered to the First Lien Collateral Agent and the Second Lien Collateral Agent; provided, however, that such determination will not affect whether or not the Obligors have complied with their undertakings in the First Lien Financing Documents, the Second Lien Financing Documents or any then-existing Additional First Lien Obligations Agreement or Additional Second Lien Obligation Agreement;
(b)    the Additional Liens Obligations Agent for such Additional Lien Obligations shall execute and deliver to the First Lien Collateral Agent and the Second Lien Collateral Agent a Joinder Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B acknowledging that such Additional Lien Obligations and the holders of such Additional Lien Obligations shall be bound by the terms hereof to the extent applicable to the First Lien Claimholders or the Second Lien Claimholders, as applicable; and
(c)    each Collateral Agent and each then-existing Authorized Representative shall promptly enter into such documents and agreements (including amendments, restatements, amendments and restatements, supplements or other modifications to this Agreement) as the First Lien Collateral Agent or the Second Lien Collateral Agent or the Additional Lien Obligations Agent may reasonably request in order to provide to it the rights, remedies and powers and authorities contemplated hereby, in each case consistent in all respects with the terms of this Agreement; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, it is understood and agreed that any such amendment, restatement, amendment and restatement, supplement or other modification to this Agreement requested pursuant to this clause (c) may be entered into by the First Lien Collateral Agent and the Second Lien Collateral Agent without the consent of any other First Lien Claimholder or Second Lien Claimholder to effect the provisions of this Section 9.21 and may contain additional intercreditor terms applicable solely to the holders of such Additional Lien Obligations vis-à-vis the holders of the relevant obligations hereunder or the holders of such Additional Lien Obligations vis-à-vis the First Lien Collateral Agent and the First Lien Claimholders or the Second Lien Collateral Agent and the Second Lien Claimholders, as applicable.

44

9.22    Additional Intercreditor Agreements. (a) Each party hereto agrees that some or all of the First Lien Claimholders (as among themselves) and some or all of the Second Lien Claimholders (as among themselves) may each enter into intercreditor agreements (or similar arrangements) with the First Lien Collateral Agent or Second Lien Collateral Agent, as the case may be, governing the rights, benefits and privileges as among the First Lien Claimholders in respect of any or all of the First Lien Collateral, this Agreement and the First Lien Collateral Documents (including, without limitation, a First Lien Intercreditor Agreement) or as among the Second Lien Claimholders in respect of any or all of the Second Lien Collateral, this Agreement or the Second Lien Collateral Documents, as the case may be, including as to the application of proceeds of any Collateral, voting rights, control of any Collateral and waivers with respect to any Collateral, in each case so long as the terms thereof do not violate or conflict with the terms of this Agreement or the First Lien Documents or the Second Lien Documents, as applicable. In any event, if a respective intercreditor agreement (or similar arrangement) exists, the provisions thereof shall not be (or be construed to be) an amendment, modification or other change to this Agreement or any other First Lien Document or Second Lien Document, and the provisions of this Agreement and the other First Lien Documents and Second Lien Documents shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof (as such provisions may be amended, modified or otherwise supplemented from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, including to give effect to any intercreditor agreement (or similar arrangement)).
(a)    In addition, in the event that the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries incurs any obligations in respect of Indebtedness that is permitted by the First Lien Documents and the Second Lien Documents to be secured by a Lien on any Collateral that is junior to the Liens thereon securing all First Lien Obligations and all Second Lien Obligations, then the First Lien Collateral Agent and/or the Second Lien Collateral Agent may, upon the request of the Lux Borrower enter into an Intercreditor Agreement (as defined in the First Lien Credit Agreement and the Initial Second Lien Document on the date hereof and/or, in each case, any similar term in any First Lien Document and/or any Second Lien Document, as applicable) or another intercreditor agreement that is reasonably satisfactory to the applicable First Lien Collateral Agents and the Second Lien Collateral Agents with the holders of such other obligations (or their agent, trustee or other representative) to reflect the relative Lien priorities of such parties with respect to the Collateral (or the relevant portion thereof) and governing the relative rights, benefits and privileges as among such parties in respect of such Collateral, including as to application of the proceeds of such Collateral, voting rights, control of such Collateral and waivers with respect to such Collateral, in each case, so long as such secured obligations are not prohibited by, and the terms of such intercreditor agreement (or the execution thereof by the First Lien Collateral Agent or the Second Lien Collateral Agent) do not violate or conflict with, the provisions of this Agreement or any of the First Lien Documents or Second Lien Documents, as the case may be. If any such intercreditor agreement (or similar arrangement) is entered into, the provisions thereof shall not be (or be construed to be) an amendment, modification or other change to this Agreement or any First Lien Documents or Second Lien Documents, and the provisions of this Agreement, the First Lien Documents and Second Lien Documents shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof (as such provisions may be amended, modified or otherwise supplemented from time to time in accordance with the respective terms thereof, including to give effect to any intercreditor agreement (or similar arrangement)) and in the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of such other intercreditor agreement as it relates to the First Lien Claimholders on the one hand and the Second Lien Claimholders on the other hand, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern and control.
