(b) Each Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other Secured Parties for whom such Agent is acting, in its capacity as Junior Agent, hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the other Agent, in its capacity as Senior Agent, and any officer or agent of such Agent, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Junior Agent or such holder or in the Junior Agent’s own name, from time to time in such Senior Agent’s discretion, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Section 3.2, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Section 3.2, including any termination statements, endorsements or other instruments of transfer or release.

6.7. Asset Dispositions.

(a) Until the Discharge of Revolving Loan Priority Debt has occurred, the Term Loan Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other Term Loan Secured Parties, agrees that, in the event of any Insolvency Proceeding, the Term Loan Secured Parties will not object or oppose (or support any Person in objecting or opposing) a motion for any Disposition of any Revolving Loan Priority Collateral (to the extent that such sale or Disposition does not include any Term Loan Priority Collateral) free and clear of the Liens of Term Loan Agent and the other Term Loan Secured Parties or other claims under Sections 363, 365 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any comparable provision of any other Bankruptcy Law, and shall be deemed to have consented to any such Disposition of any Revolving Loan Priority Collateral under Section 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provision of any other Bankruptcy Law that has been consented to by the Revolving Loan Agent; provided, that, the Proceeds of such Disposition to be applied to the Revolving Loan Debt or the Term Loan Debt are applied in accordance with Sections 4.1 and 4.2.

-39-

(c) The Term Loan Secured Parties agree that the Revolving Loan Secured Parties shall have the right to credit bid under Section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provision of any other Bankruptcy Law with respect to, or otherwise object to any Disposition of, the Revolving Loan Priority Collateral, and the Revolving Loan Secured Parties agree that the Term Loan Secured Parties shall have the right to credit bid under Section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provision of any other Bankruptcy Law with respect to, or otherwise object to any Disposition of, the Term Loan Priority Collateral; provided, that, the Secured Parties shall not be deemed to have agreed to any credit bid by other Secured Parties in connection with the Disposition of Shared Collateral consisting of both Term Loan Priority Collateral and Revolving Loan Priority Collateral. The Term Loan Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other Term Loan Secured Parties, agrees that, so long as the Discharge of Revolving Loan Priority Debt has not occurred, no Term Loan Secured Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Revolving Loan Agent, credit bid under Section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Revolving Loan Priority Collateral. The Revolving Loan Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other Revolving Loan Secured Parties, agrees that, so long as the Discharge of Term Loan Priority Debt has not occurred, no Revolving Loan Secured Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Term Loan Agent, credit bid under Section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral.

6.9. Avoidance Issues.

If any Revolving Loan Secured Party is required in any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise to turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of any U.S. Grantor or any other Person any amount (a “Recovery”), then the Revolving Loan Debt shall be reinstated to the extent of such Recovery and the Revolving Loan Secured Parties shall be entitled to a Discharge of Revolving Loan Priority Debt with respect to all such recovered amounts.

(b) The Revolving Loan Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Revolving Loan Secured Parties, agrees that none of them shall, without the consent of the Term Loan Agent, directly or indirectly propose, support or vote in favor of any plan of reorganization in connection with an Insolvency Proceeding that would provide the Term Loan Secured Parties with debt obligations of any reorganized U.S. Grantor bearing a below-market interest rate.
