(y) contest, protest or object to any foreclosure proceeding or action brought with respect to the Common Collateral or any other Lien, collateral or security by the First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party in respect of the First Lien Obligations, the exercise of any right by the First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Secured Parties (or any agent or sub-agent on their behalf) in respect of the First Lien Obligations under any lockbox agreement, control agreement, landlord waiver, bailee’s letter, assignment of production or similar agreement or arrangement to which the Second Lien Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Party either is a party or may have rights as a third party beneficiary, or any other exercise by any such party, of any rights and remedies relating to the Common Collateral or any other Lien, collateral or security under the First Lien Documents or otherwise in respect of the First Lien Obligations, or

(z) object to the forbearance by the First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party from bringing or pursuing any foreclosure proceeding or action or any other exercise of any rights or remedies relating to the Common Collateral or any other Lien, collateral or security under the First Lien Documents or otherwise in respect of the First Lien Obligations;

provided, however, that the Second Lien Agent and the other Second Lien Secured Parties may take any Permitted Remedies.

(b) So long as the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has not occurred, the Second Lien Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Second Lien Secured Parties, agrees that it will not take or receive any Common Collateral or other collateral or any proceeds of Common Collateral or other collateral in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy (including setoff or recoupment) with respect to any Common Collateral or other collateral in respect of the Second Lien Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, unless and until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, except as expressly provided in the proviso to clause (ii) of Section 3.1(a) and in Section 3.1(e), the sole right of the Second Lien Agent and the other Second Lien Secured Parties with respect to the Common Collateral or any other collateral securing any Second Lien Obligations is to hold a Lien on the Common Collateral or such other collateral in respect of the applicable Second Lien Obligations pursuant to the Second Lien Documents, as applicable, for the period and to the extent granted therein and to receive a share of the proceeds thereof, if any, after the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred.

(c) Subject to the proviso in clause (ii) of Section 3.1(a) above and Section 3.1(e) below, (i) each of the Second Lien Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Second Lien Secured Parties, agrees that neither it nor any other Second Lien Secured Party will take any action that would hinder any exercise of remedies undertaken by the First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party with respect to the Common Collateral or any other collateral securing the First Lien Obligations, including any Disposition of the Common Collateral or such other collateral, whether by foreclosure or otherwise; (ii) the Second Lien Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Second Lien Secured Parties, acknowledges that any First Lien Secured Party may enforce rights or exercise remedies (v) in any manner in its sole discretion in compliance with applicable law, (w) without consultation with or the consent of any Second Lien Secured Parties, (x) regardless of whether or not an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has commenced, (y) regardless of any provision of any Second Lien Documents (other than this Agreement) and (z) regardless of whether or not such exercise is adverse to the interest of any Second Lien Secured Parties; and (iii) the Second Lien Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Second Lien Secured Parties, hereby waives any and all rights it or any such Second Lien Secured Party may have as a junior lien creditor or otherwise to object to the manner in which the First Lien Agent seeks to enforce or collect the First Lien Obligations or the Liens granted to secure any First Lien Obligations, regardless of whether any action or failure to act by or on behalf of the First Lien Agent or any First Lien Secured Party is adverse to the interests of any of the Second Lien Secured Parties.

(d) The Second Lien Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Second Lien Secured Parties, hereby acknowledges and agrees that no covenant, agreement or restriction contained in any applicable Second Lien Document shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights and remedies of the First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party with respect to the Common Collateral or other collateral securing the First Lien Obligations as set forth in this Agreement and any First Lien Documents.

(e) Notwithstanding Section 3.1(a) (but subject to clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of this Section 3.1(e)), each party hereto agrees that, after a period of 180 days has elapsed since the date on which the Second Lien Agent has delivered to the First Lien Agent a written notice of the acceleration of the relevant Second Lien Obligations (the “Standstill Period”), the Second Lien Agent may, subject to Section 4 below, (A) enforce or exercise, or seek to enforce or exercise, any rights or remedies (including any right of setoff) with respect to any Common Collateral (including the enforcement of any right under any account control agreement, landlord waiver or bailee’s letter or any similar agreement or arrangement to which the Second Lien Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Party is a party) or (B) commence or join with any person (other than the First Lien Agent) in commencing, or petition for or vote in favor of any resolution for, any action or proceeding with respect to such rights or remedies (including any foreclosure action), if:

(i) no First Lien Secured Party shall have commenced or is diligently pursuing the enforcement or exercise of any rights or remedies with respect to all or a material portion of the Common Collateral, or shall have sought or requested relief from or modification of the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding to enable the commencement and pursuit of such enforcement actions,

(ii) any acceleration of the relevant Second Lien Obligations has not been rescinded, and

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3.1, (A) in no event shall the Second Lien Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Party enforce or exercise any rights or remedies with respect to any Common Collateral, or commence, join with any person in commencing, or petition for or vote in favor of any resolution for, any such action or proceeding if the First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party shall have commenced, and shall be diligently pursuing (or shall have sought or requested relief from or modification of the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding to enable the commencement and pursuit thereof), the enforcement or exercise of any rights or remedies with respect to any Common Collateral or any such action or proceeding (prompt written notice thereof to be given to the Second Lien Agent by the First Lien Agent) and (B) after the expiration of the Standstill Period, so long as none of the First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party has commenced any action to enforce their Lien on any material portion of the Common Collateral, in the event that and for so long as the Second Lien Secured Parties (or the Second Lien Agent) have commenced any actions to enforce their Lien with respect to all or any material portion of the Common Collateral to the extent permitted hereunder and are diligently pursuing such actions, none of the First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party shall take any action of a similar nature with respect to such Common Collateral; provided, that all other provisions of this Agreement (including the turnover provisions of Section 4) are complied with.

3.2 Cooperation. Subject to the proviso to clause (ii) of Section 3.1(a) and Section 3.1(e), the Second Lien Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Second Lien Secured Parties, agrees that, unless and until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, it will not commence, or join with any person (other than the First Lien Agent and the other First Lien Secured Parties, upon the request thereof) in commencing, any enforcement, collection, execution, levy or foreclosure action or proceeding with respect to any Lien held by it in the Common Collateral or any other collateral under any of the applicable Second Lien Documents or otherwise in respect of the applicable Second Lien Obligations secured by the Common Collateral.

3.3 Actions Upon Breach. If any Second Lien Secured Party, in contravention of the terms of this Agreement, in any way takes, attempts to or threatens to take any action with respect to the Common Collateral (including any attempt to realize upon or enforce any remedy with respect to this Agreement), this Agreement shall create an irrebuttable presumption and admission by such Second Lien Secured Party that relief against such Second Lien Secured Party by injunction, specific performance and/or other appropriate equitable relief is necessary to prevent irreparable harm to the First Lien Secured Parties, it being understood and agreed by the Second Lien Agent, for itself and on behalf of the applicable Second Lien Secured Parties, that (i) the First Lien Secured Parties’ damages from its actions may at that time be difficult to ascertain and may be irreparable, and (ii) each Second Lien Secured Party waives any defense that the Pledgors and/or the First Lien Secured Parties cannot demonstrate damage and/or can be made whole by the awarding of damages.

4.1 Nature of Claims. The Second Lien Agent, for itself and on behalf of the applicable Second Lien Secured Parties, acknowledges and agrees that (i) with respect to any commitments under any First Lien Facility that constitute revolving credit commitments, in the ordinary course of business, the applicable First Lien Agent and lenders thereunder will apply payments and make advances to the Company or other Pledgors thereunder and the amount thereof that may be outstanding at any time or from time to time may be increased or reduced and subsequently reborrowed; (ii) no release of any Lien by the First Lien Agent upon any portion of the Common Collateral or other collateral securing any First Lien Obligations in connection with a Disposition not prohibited under the First Lien Documents shall constitute the exercise of remedies prohibited under this Agreement; and (iii) the amount of the First Lien Obligations that may be outstanding at any time or from time to time may be increased (including by way of incremental commitments or as a result of fluctuations in commodity prices or interest rates) or reduced and, with respect to any First Lien Obligations that comprise revolving facilities, including letter of credit facilities, subsequently reborrowed. The Lien priority set forth in this Agreement shall not be altered or otherwise affected by any amendment, modification, supplement, extension, repayment, reborrowing, increase, replacement, renewal, restatement or refinancing of the First Lien Obligations or any portion thereof.

4.2 Application of Proceeds. The Second Lien Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Second Lien Secured Parties, acknowledges and agrees that, so long as the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has not occurred, the Common Collateral and any other collateral securing the First Lien Obligations or proceeds thereof received in connection with the Disposition of, or collection on, such Common Collateral or such other collateral upon the exercise of remedies as a secured party shall be applied by the First Lien Agent to the applicable First Lien Obligations in a manner as specified in the relevant First Lien Documents in accordance with applicable law until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred. After the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, subject to Section 5.7 hereof, the First Lien Agent shall deliver promptly to the Second Lien Agent (and/or its designees), for the benefit of the Second Lien Secured Parties, any Common Collateral or proceeds thereof held by it in the same form as received, with any necessary endorsements or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct to be applied by the Second Lien Agent to the Second Lien Obligations in a manner as specified in the Second Lien Documents. Any Common Collateral or proceeds thereof remaining after the Discharge of Second Lien Obligations shall be promptly delivered to the Pledgors or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct to be applied.

4.3 Payments Over. Any Common Collateral or other collateral securing any First Lien Obligations or proceeds thereof received by the Second Lien Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Party in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy (including setoff or recoupment) relating to the Common Collateral or such other collateral prior to the Discharge of First Lien Obligations shall be segregated and held in trust for the benefit of, and forthwith paid over to, the First Lien Agent (and/or its designees), for the benefit of the First Lien Secured Parties, in the same form as received, with any necessary endorsements or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. The First Lien Agent is hereby authorized to make any such endorsements as agent for the Second Lien Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Parties. This authorization is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.

(a) If, at any time any Pledgor or any First Lien Secured Party delivers notice to the Second Lien Agent that any specified Common Collateral (including all or substantially all of the equity interests of a Pledgor or any of its subsidiaries, which shall include for such purpose, in the case of the sale of equity interests in any such subsidiary, any Common Collateral held by such subsidiary or any direct or indirect subsidiary thereof) is Disposed of (other than to another Pledgor),

(A) by the owner of such Common Collateral in a transaction not prohibited under the RBL Credit Agreement, any applicable First Lien Documents, the Second Lien Agreement and any applicable Second Lien Documents; or

(B) during the existence of any Event of Default under (and as defined in) the RBL Credit Agreement or any applicable First Lien Documents in connection with any enforcement action, exercise of rights or remedies or to the extent that the First Lien Agent has consented to such Disposition;

then (whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding is pending at the time) the Liens securing the Second Lien Obligations upon such Common Collateral will automatically be released and discharged as and upon, but only to the extent, such Liens on such Common Collateral securing the First Lien Obligations are released and discharged.

Upon delivery to the Second Lien Agent of a notice from the First Lien Agent or the Company, which notice states that any release of Liens securing or supporting any First Lien Obligations has become effective (or shall become effective upon the release by the Second Lien Agent or other relevant Second Lien Secured Parties), whether in connection with a sale of such assets by the relevant Pledgor pursuant to the preceding clauses or otherwise, the Second Lien Agent or such other Second Lien Secured Parties, as the case may be, shall promptly execute and deliver such instruments, releases, termination statements or other documents or instruments confirming such release on customary terms or otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the First Lien Agent and the Company, it being understood that all documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Second Lien Secured Parties (and their respective representatives) in connection with the execution and delivery of such release documents or instruments shall be borne by the Pledgors. In the case of the Disposition of all or substantially all of the capital stock of a Pledgor or any of its subsidiaries, the guarantee in favor of the Second Lien Secured Parties, if any, made by such Pledgor or such subsidiary will automatically be released and discharged as and upon, but only to the extent, the guarantee by such Pledgor or such subsidiary of the First Lien Obligations is released and discharged if (A) such Disposition is not prohibited by the terms of the First Lien Documents and the Second Lien Documents or (B) such Disposition is made during the existence of any Event of Default under (and as defined in) the RBL Credit Agreement or any applicable First Lien Documents in connection with any enforcement action or exercise of rights or remedies, or to the extent that the First Lien Agent has consented to such Disposition.

(b) The Second Lien Agent, for itself and on behalf of the applicable Second Lien Secured Parties, hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints (which appointment is coupled with an interest) the First Lien Agent and any officer or agent of the First Lien 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 the Second Lien Agent, or in the First Lien Agent’s own name, from time to time in the First Lien Agent’s discretion, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Section 5.1, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments that may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Section 5.1, including any termination statements, endorsements or other instruments of transfer or release.

(c) Unless and until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, the Second Lien Agent, for itself and on behalf of the applicable Second Lien Secured Parties, hereby consents to the application, whether prior to or after a default, of proceeds of Common Collateral or other collateral to the repayment of First Lien Obligations pursuant to the applicable First Lien Documents; provided, that nothing in this Section 5.1(c) shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of the Second Lien Agent or the other Second Lien Secured Parties to receive proceeds in connection with the Second Lien Obligations not otherwise in contravention of this Agreement.

5.2 Insurance. Pursuant to the applicable Documents, the First Lien Agent and the Second Lien Agent may be named as additional insureds and/or loss payees, as applicable, under any insurance policies maintained by any Pledgor. Proceeds of the Common Collateral include insurance proceeds and, therefore, the Lien priority set forth in this Agreement shall govern the ultimate Disposition of such insurance proceeds. Unless and until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, the Second Lien Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Second Lien Secured Parties, hereby agrees that, subject to the rights of the Pledgors under the First Lien Documents:

(a) the First Lien Agent shall have the sole and exclusive right to (i) adjust settlement for any losses covered by an insurance policy covering the Common Collateral or any other collateral securing the First Lien Obligations and (ii) approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding (or a deed in lieu of condemnation) affecting the Common Collateral or such other collateral; and

(b) all proceeds of any such policy and any such award or deed, if in respect of the Common Collateral or such other collateral, shall be paid (i) first, prior to the occurrence of the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, to the First Lien Agent for the benefit of the First Lien Secured Parties pursuant to the terms of the applicable First Lien Documents, (b) second, after the occurrence of the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, to the Second Lien Agent for the benefit of the Second Lien Secured Parties pursuant to the terms of the applicable Second Lien Documents, and (c) third, if no Second Lien Obligations are outstanding, to the owner of the subject property, such other person as may be entitled thereto or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. If the Second Lien Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Party shall, at any time, receive any proceeds of any such insurance policy or any such award in contravention of this Agreement, it shall pay such proceeds over to the First Lien Agent in accordance with the terms of this Section 5.2.

(a) So long as the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has not occurred, without the prior written consent of the First Lien Agent, no Second Lien Collateral Document may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified or entered into to the extent that any provisions therein as so amended, supplemented or modified, or the terms of any new Second Lien Collateral Document, would be prohibited by, or would require any Pledgor to act or refrain from acting in a manner that would violate, any of the terms of this Agreement.

(b) In the event that the First Lien Agent or other First Lien Secured Parties enter into any amendment, waiver or consent in respect of or replace any First Lien Collateral Document for the purpose of adding to, or deleting from, or waiving or consenting to any departures from any provisions of, any First Lien Collateral Document or changing in any manner the rights of the First Lien Agent, such First Lien Secured Parties, the Company or any other Pledgor thereunder, then such amendment, waiver, consent or replacement shall apply automatically to any comparable provision of each Comparable Second Lien Collateral

Document in which the Pledgors grant a Lien on the same collateral, without the consent of the Second Lien Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Party and without any action by any such person; provided, that such amendment, waiver, consent or replacement does not (i) materially adversely affect the rights of the Second Lien Secured Parties or their interests in the Common Collateral to a greater extent than the First Lien Secured Parties in a like or similar manner (other than by virtue of their relative priorities and rights and obligations hereunder), or (ii) adversely affect the rights, duties, protections, privileges, indemnities or immunities of the Second Lien Agent. The First Lien Agent shall promptly, and in any event within five (5) Business Days thereof, give written notice of such amendment, waiver or consent to the Second Lien Agent; provided, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the effectiveness of such amendment, waiver, consent or replacement with respect to the provisions of any Second Lien Collateral Document as set forth in this Section 5.3(b).

5.4 Rights As Unsecured Creditors. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Second Lien Agent may exercise rights and remedies as an unsecured creditor against the Company or any other Pledgor that has guaranteed the Second Lien Obligations in accordance with the terms of the applicable Second Lien Documents and applicable law, in each case to the extent not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by the Second Lien Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Party of the required payments of interest and principal so long as such receipt is not the direct or indirect result of (a) the exercise by the Second Lien Agent of rights or remedies as a secured creditor in respect of any Common Collateral or other collateral securing any Second Lien Obligations or (b) enforcement in contravention of this Agreement of any Lien in respect of any Second Lien Obligations. In the event that the Second Lien Agent becomes a judgment lien creditor or other secured creditor in respect of any Common Collateral or other collateral securing any Second Lien Obligations as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor in respect of any Second Lien Obligations or otherwise, such judgment or other lien shall be subordinated to the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Second Lien Obligations are so subordinated to such Liens securing the First Lien Obligations under this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement impairs or otherwise adversely affects any rights or remedies that any First Lien Agent or any First Lien Secured Party may have with respect to the collateral securing any First Lien Obligations.

(a) The First Lien Agent agrees to hold the Pledged Collateral that is part of the Common Collateral that is in its possession or control (or in the possession or control of its agents or bailees) as gratuitous bailee and/or gratuitous agent for the benefit of and on behalf of the Second Lien Agent and any assignee thereof solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted in such Pledged Collateral, if any, pursuant to the Second Lien Collateral Documents, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.5 (such bailment and/or agency being intended, among other things, to satisfy the requirements of Sections 8-106(d)(3), 8-301(a)(2), 9-104(a)(2) and 9-313(c) of the UCC). Pending delivery to the First Lien Agent, the Second Lien Agent shall hold any Pledged Collateral that is part of the Common Collateral that is in its possession or control, as gratuitous bailee and/or gratuitous agent for the benefit of and on behalf of each other Secured Party and any assignee thereof solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted in such Pledged Collateral, if any, pursuant to

the relevant First Lien Collateral Documents and Second Lien Collateral Documents, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.5 (such bailment and/or agency being intended, among other things, to satisfy the requirements of Sections 8-106(d)(3), 8-301(a)(2), 9-104(a)(2) and 9-313(c) of the UCC).

(b) In the event that the First Lien Agent (or its agent or bailees) has Lien filings against Intellectual Property (as defined in the applicable First Lien Collateral Documents) that is part of the Common Collateral that are necessary for the perfection of Liens on such Common Collateral, the First Lien Agent agrees to hold such Liens as gratuitous bailee and/or gratuitous agent for the Second Lien Agent and any assignee solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted in such Common Collateral, if any, pursuant to the Second Lien Collateral Documents, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.5.

(c) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein (including Sections 3.1 and 4.1), until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, the First Lien Agent shall be entitled to deal with any Pledged Collateral in accordance with the terms of the relevant First Lien Collateral Documents as if the Liens under the Second Lien Collateral Documents did not exist. The rights of the Second Lien Agent and the other Second Lien Secured Parties with respect to such Pledged Collateral shall at all times be subject to the terms of this Agreement.

(d) The First Lien Agent shall not have any obligation whatsoever to the Second Lien Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Party to assure that the Pledged Collateral is genuine or owned by the Pledgors or to protect or preserve rights or benefits of any person or any rights pertaining to the Common Collateral except as expressly set forth in this Section 5.5. The duties or responsibilities of the First Lien Agent under this Section 5.5 shall be limited solely to holding the Pledged Collateral as gratuitous bailee and/or gratuitous agent for the Second Lien Agent for purposes of perfecting the Liens securing any Second Lien Obligations.

(e) The First Lien Agent shall not have, by reason of any Second Lien Collateral Documents or this Agreement or any other document, a fiduciary relationship in respect of the Second Lien Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Party. The Second Lien Agent and each other Second Lien Secured Party hereby waives and releases the First Lien Agent from all claims and liabilities arising pursuant to the First Lien Agent’s role as agent and gratuitous bailee and/or gratuitous agent with respect to any Common Collateral, under this Section 5.5. The Second Lien Agent shall not have, by reason of any First Lien Collateral Documents or this Agreement or any other document, a fiduciary relationship in respect of the First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party. The First Lien Agent and each other First Lien Secured Party hereby waives and releases the Second Lien Agent from all claims and liabilities arising pursuant to the Second Lien Agent’s role as agent and gratuitous bailee and/or gratuitous agent with respect to any Common Collateral, under this Section 5.5.

(f) After the Discharge of the First Lien Obligations, the First Lien Agent shall promptly deliver to the Second Lien Agent, to the extent that it is legally permitted to do so, the remaining Pledged Collateral (if any) and to the extent that such Pledged Collateral is in the possession or control of the First Lien Agent (or its agents or bailees), together with any necessary endorsements (or otherwise allow the Second Lien Agent to obtain control of such Pledged Collateral), or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

(g) None of the First Lien Agent or any First Lien Secured Party shall be required to marshal any present or future collateral security for the Company’s or its subsidiaries’ obligations to the First Lien Agent or such First Lien Secured Parties under any First Lien Documents or any assurance of payment in respect thereof or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of their rights in respect of such collateral security or any assurance of payment in respect thereof shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights, however existing or arising.

5.7 Reinstatement. If, at any time after the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, the Company incurs or designates any First Lien Obligations, then such Discharge of First Lien Obligations shall automatically be deemed not to have occurred for all purposes of this Agreement (other than with respect to any actions taken prior to the date of such incurrence or designation as a result of the occurrence of such first Discharge of First Lien Obligations), and the applicable agreement governing such First Lien Obligations shall automatically be treated as a First Lien Credit Document for all purposes of this Agreement, including for purposes of the Lien priorities and rights in respect of the Common Collateral set forth herein. Upon receipt of written notice of such designation (including the identity of any new First Lien Agent), the Second Lien Agent shall promptly (i) enter into such documents and agreements (it being understood that the Company will pay all documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any such person (and their respective representatives) in connection with the execution and delivery of such documents and agreements), including amendments or supplements to this Agreement, as the Company or such new First Lien Agent shall reasonably request in writing in order to provide to the new First Lien Agent the rights of a First Lien Agent contemplated hereby and (ii) to the extent then held by the Second Lien Agent, deliver to such new First Lien Agent any Pledged Collateral that is Common Collateral, together with any necessary endorsements (or otherwise allow such new First Lien Agent to obtain possession or control of such Pledged Collateral).

5.8 Refinancings. Any Secured Obligations may be Refinanced without notice to or the consent of any Secured Party (to the extent not prohibited by the terms of the Documents), all without affecting the priorities provided for herein or the other provisions hereof; provided, however, that the requirements set forth in Section 8.22 shall have been satisfied to the extent applicable.

6.1 Financing Issues. Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, if the Company or any other Pledgor shall be subject to any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and the First Lien Agent shall desire to permit the use, sale or lease of cash collateral (as defined in Section 363(a)) or to permit the Company or any other Pledgor to obtain financing under Section 363 or Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision in any Bankruptcy Law (“DIP Financing”), then the Second Lien Agent for itself and on behalf of the applicable Second Lien Secured Parties agrees that:

(a) (i) it will raise no objection to, will not support any objection to or otherwise contest, and shall be deemed to have consented to, such use, sale or lease of such cash collateral and DIP Financing and will not request adequate protection or any other relief in connection therewith (except to the extent permitted by Section 6.3) and (ii) it will, to the extent the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations under the First Lien Documents are subordinated or pari passu with such DIP Financing, subordinate its Liens on the Common Collateral and any other collateral securing any Second Lien Obligations to the Liens securing such DIP Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto, including any “carve-out” from the Common Collateral granting administrative priority status or Lien priority to secure the payment of fees and expenses of the United States trustee or professionals retained by any debtor or creditors’ committee agreed to by the First Lien Agent or the other First Lien Secured Parties) and to all adequate protection Liens granted to the First Lien Agent on the same basis as the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations are subordinated to the Liens securing the DIP Financing or to confirm the priorities with respect to Liens securing the First Lien Obligations under this Agreement, as applicable; provided, that the aggregate principal amount of the DIP Financing does not exceed the sum of (1) the aggregate Revolving Outstandings (as defined below) outstanding under the Company’s then existing revolving credit facilities (including the RBL Credit Agreement) and (2) an amount equal to 50% of the aggregate commitments (whether drawn or undrawn) under such then-existing revolving credit facilities (including the RBL Credit Agreement), in each case determined immediately prior to the commencement of such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and without regard to whether the revolving commitments thereunder are otherwise then available to be drawn as a result of a failure to satisfy a condition precedent to borrowing such revolving commitments. As used herein, “Revolving Outstandings” means, in respect of any revolving credit facility (including the RBL Credit Agreement), the sum of (x) the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding revolving loans, (y) the aggregate stated amount of all letters of credit (together with the amount of any unreimbursed drawings thereunder) and (z) the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding swingline loans;

(b) it will raise no objection to, and will not support any objection to or otherwise contest, any motion for relief from the automatic stay or from any injunction against foreclosure or enforcement in respect of any First Lien Obligations made by the First Lien Agent or any First Lien Secured Party;

(c) it will raise no objection to, will not support any objection to or otherwise contest, any lawful exercise by any First Lien Secured Party of the right to credit bid the First Lien Obligations under section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision under any other applicable Bankruptcy Law) or at any sale in foreclosure of any Common Collateral or other collateral securing any First Lien Obligations;

(d) it will raise no objection to, will not support any objection to or otherwise contest, any other request for judicial relief made in any court by any First Lien Secured Party relating to the lawful enforcement of any Lien on any Common Collateral or other collateral securing any First Lien Obligations; or

(e) except as set forth below, it will raise no objection to, will not support any objection to or otherwise contest, any order relating to a sale of any Common Collateral of any Pledgor for which any First Lien Agent has consented that provides, to the extent that the sale is to be free and clear of Liens, that the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations and the Second Lien Obligations will attach to the proceeds of the sale on the same basis of priority as the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations do to the Liens securing the Second Lien Obligations in accordance with this Agreement, provided that the applicable Second Lien Secured Parties may assert any objection to a sale or disposition that could be asserted by an unsecured creditor in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding; without limiting the foregoing, the Second Lien Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Second Lien Secured Parties, agrees that it may not raise any objections based on rights afforded by Sections 363(e) and (f) of the Bankruptcy Code to secured creditors (or any comparable provisions of any other Bankruptcy Law) with respect to the Liens granted to such person in respect of such assets. In addition, the Second Lien Secured Parties are not deemed to have waived any rights to credit bid on the Common Collateral in any such sale or disposition in accordance with Section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision under any other applicable Bankruptcy Law), so long as any such credit bid provides for the payment in full in cash of the First Lien Obligations.

6.2 Relief from the Automatic Stay. Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, the Second Lien Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Second Lien Secured Parties, agrees that it shall not seek relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Common Collateral or any other collateral securing any First Lien Obligations, or seek to oppose the First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party from seeking relief from the automatic stay or any other stay, without the prior written consent of the First Lien Agent or the Required Lenders in respect of the First Lien Obligations.

6.3 Adequate Protection. The Second Lien Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Second Lien Secured Parties, agrees that it shall not contest, or support any other person contesting, (a) any request by the First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party for adequate protection in any form or (b) any objection by the First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on the First Lien Agent or such First Lien Secured Party’s claiming a lack of adequate protection. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, (i) if the First Lien Secured Parties (or any subset thereof) are granted adequate protection in the form of a Lien on additional or replacement collateral and/or a superpriority administrative claim in connection with any DIP Financing or use of cash collateral under Section 363 or Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of any Bankruptcy Law, then the Second Lien Agent, for itself or on behalf of any Second Lien Secured Party, (A) may seek or request adequate protection in the form of a Lien on such additional or replacement collateral and/or a superpriority administrative claim (as applicable), which Lien or superpriority claim is junior and subordinated to the Liens securing, and claims with respect to, the First Lien Obligations and such DIP Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto) on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Second Lien Obligations are so junior and subordinated to the Liens securing, and the claims with respect to, the First Lien Obligations under this Agreement and (B) agrees that it will not seek or request, without the consent of the First Lien Agent or as otherwise set forth in this Section 6.3, adequate protection in any other form, and (ii) in the event that the Second Lien Agent, for itself or on

behalf of any Second Lien Secured Party, is granted adequate protection in the form of a Lien on additional or replacement collateral and/or a superpriority administrative claim, then the Second Lien Agent, for itself or on behalf of such Second Lien Secured Party, agrees that the First Lien Agent shall also be granted a senior Lien on such additional or replacement collateral as security for the First Lien Obligations and any such DIP Financing and/or a superpriority administrative claim (as applicable), and that any Lien on such additional or replacement collateral securing the Second Lien Obligations and/or superpriority claim shall be junior and subordinated to the Liens on such collateral securing, and the claims with respect to, the First Lien Obligations and any such DIP Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto) and any other Liens granted to the First Lien Secured Parties as adequate protection on the same basis as the other Liens securing, and claims with respect to, the Second Lien Obligations are so junior and subordinated to such Liens securing and claims with respect to the First Lien Obligations under this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the extent that the First Lien Secured Parties are granted adequate protection in the form of payments in the amount of current post-petition fees and expenses, and/or other cash payments, then the Second Lien Agent and the Second Lien Secured Parties shall not be prohibited from seeking and accepting adequate protection in the form of payments in the amount of current post-petition incurred fees and expenses, and/or other cash payments (as applicable), subject to the right of the First Lien Secured Parties to object to the reasonableness of the amounts of fees and expenses or other cash payments so sought by the Second Lien Secured Parties.

6.4 Avoidance Issues. If any First Lien Secured Party is required in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise to turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of the Company or any other Pledgor (or any trustee, receiver or similar person therefor), because the payment of such amount was declared to be fraudulent or preferential in any respect or for any other reason, any amount (a “Recovery”), whether received as proceeds of security, enforcement of any right of setoff or otherwise, then as among the parties hereto, the First Lien Obligations shall be deemed to be reinstated to the extent of such Recovery and to be outstanding as if such payment had not occurred and the First Lien Secured Parties shall be entitled to a Discharge of First Lien Obligations with respect to all such Recovery and shall have all rights hereunder until such time. 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.

6.5 Application. The parties hereto expressly acknowledge that this Agreement is a “subordination agreement” under Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and shall be applicable and effective prior to and after the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. All references herein to any Pledgor shall apply to any trustee for such person and such person as debtor in possession. The relative rights as to the Common Collateral and other collateral and proceeds thereof shall continue after the filing thereof on the same basis as prior to the date of the petition, subject to any court order approving the financing of, or use of cash collateral by, any Pledgor.

6.6 Waivers. Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, the Second Lien Agent, for itself and on behalf the Second Lien Secured Parties, (a) will not assert or enforce any claim under Section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code senior to or pari passu with the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations for costs or expenses of preserving or Disposing of any Common Collateral or other collateral, and (b) waives any claim it may now or hereafter have arising out of the election by any First Lien Secured Party of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code.

(a) None of the Second Lien Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Party shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of First Lien Obligations consisting of Post-Petition Claims, under Section 506(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise.

(b) None of the First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the Second Lien Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Party for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of Second Lien Obligations consisting of Post-Petition Claims, under Section 506(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, to the extent of the value of the Lien securing the Second Lien Obligations on the Common Collateral (after taking into account the First Lien Obligations).

6.8 Separate Grants of Security and Separate Classification. Each of the Company and the other Pledgors; the First Lien Agent and all other First Lien Secured Parties; and the Second Lien Agent and all other Second Lien Secured Parties acknowledges and agrees that (i) the grants of Liens pursuant to the First Lien Collateral Documents and the Second Lien Collateral Documents constitute two separate and distinct grants of Liens and (ii) because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Common Collateral, the Second Lien Obligations are fundamentally different from the First Lien Obligations and must be separately classified in any Plan of Reorganization proposed or confirmed in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. In addition, the parties hereto agree that regardless of whether any Post-Petition Claim is allowed or allowable, and without limiting the generality of the other provisions of this Agreement, this Agreement is expressly intended to include and does include the “rule of explicitness” in that this Agreement expressly entitles the First Lien Agent and each other First Lien Secured Party, and is intended to provide the First Lien Agent and such other First Lien Secured Party, with the right to receive, in respect of their First Lien Obligations, payment from the Common Collateral of all Post-Petition Claims through distributions made therefrom pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement even though any such Post-Petition Claims are not allowed or allowable against the bankruptcy estate of the Company or any other Pledgor under Section 502(b)(2) or Section 506(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or under any other provision of the Bankruptcy Code or any other Bankruptcy Law. To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in the immediately preceding sentences, if it is held that the claims of the First Lien Secured Parties and the Second Lien Secured Parties in respect of the Common Collateral constitute only one secured claim (rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims), then the First Lien Secured Parties shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them from, or in respect of, the Common Collateral in respect of principal, prepetition interest and other claims, all amounts owing in respect of Post-Petition Claims, irrespective of whether such claim for such amount is allowed or allowable in such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, before any distribution from, or in respect of, any Common Collateral is made in respect of the claims held by the Second Lien Secured Parties, with the Second Lien Secured Parties hereby

acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the First Lien Agent amounts otherwise received or receivable by them from the Common Collateral to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing the claim or recovery of the Second Lien Secured Parties.

6.9 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, 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.

6.10 Voting. No Second Lien Secured Party may support or vote in favor of any Plan of Reorganization (and each shall be deemed to have voted to reject any Plan of Reorganization) unless such plan (a) pays off, in cash in full, all First Lien Obligations, (b) is accepted by the class of holders of First Lien Obligations voting thereon in accordance with Section 1126 of the Bankruptcy Code, or (c) otherwise provides the holders of First Lien Obligations with the value of the Common Collateral in cash or otherwise, prior to any payment or distribution on account of the Second Lien Obligations, subject to Section 6.9 hereof.

7.1 Reliance. The Second Lien Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Second Lien Secured Parties, acknowledges that neither it nor any such Second Lien Secured Party is entitled to rely on any credit decision or other decisions made by any First Lien Agent or any First Lien Secured Party in taking or not taking any action under the applicable Second Lien Document or this Agreement.

7.2 No Warranties or Liability. No First Lien Secured Party has made, nor shall have been deemed to have made, any express or implied representation or warranty upon which the Second Lien Agent or the other Second Lien Secured Parties may rely or otherwise, including with respect to the execution, validity, legality, completeness, collectibility or enforceability of any of the First Lien Documents, the ownership of any Common Collateral or the perfection or priority of any Liens thereon. The First Lien Secured Parties will be entitled to manage and supervise their respective loans and extensions of credit under the First Lien Documents in accordance with law and as they may otherwise, in their sole discretion, deem appropriate, and they may manage their loans and extensions of credit without regard to any rights or interests that any Second Lien Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Parties may have in the Common Collateral or otherwise, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. No First Lien Secured Party shall have any duty to the Second Lien Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Party to act or refrain from acting in a manner that allows, or results in, the occurrence or continuance of an event of default or default under any agreements with the Company or any subsidiary thereof (including the Second Lien Documents), regardless of any knowledge thereof that they may have or be charged with. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the First Lien Agent, any other First Lien Secured Party, the Second Lien Agent, or

any other Second Lien Secured Party has not otherwise made to each other, nor does any of them hereby make to each other, any warranties, express or implied, nor does any of them assume any liability to each other, in each case with respect to (a) the enforceability, validity, value or collectibility of any of the Second Lien Obligations, the First Lien Obligations, or any guarantee or security that may have been granted to any of them in connection with the First Lien Obligations or the Second Lien Obligations, (b) the Company’s title to or right to transfer any of the Common Collateral or (c) any other matter except as expressly set forth in this Agreement.

7.3 Obligations Unconditional. All rights, interests, agreements and obligations of the First Lien Agent and the First Lien Secured Parties, and the Second Lien Agent and the Second Lien Secured Parties, respectively, hereunder 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 the 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 the First Lien Documents or of the terms of the Second Lien Documents;

(c) any exchange of any security interest in any Common 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 the Second Lien Obligations or any guarantee thereof;

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

(e) any other circumstances that otherwise might constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Company or any other Pledgor in respect of the First Lien Obligations, or of the Second Lien Agent or any Second Lien Secured Party in respect of this Agreement.

8.1 Conflicts. Subject to Section 8.20 (Relative Rights), in the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of any First Lien Document or any Second Lien Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern.

8.2 Continuing Nature of this Agreement; Severability. Subject to Section 6.4 (Avoidance Issues), this Agreement shall continue to be effective until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations shall have occurred or such later time as the Discharge of Second Lien Obligations shall have occurred. This is a continuing agreement of lien subordination and the First Lien Secured Parties may continue, at any time and without notice to the Second Lien Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Party, to extend credit and other financial

accommodations and lend monies to or for the benefit of the Company or any other Pledgor or any of its or their subsidiaries constituting First Lien Obligations in reliance hereon. The terms of this Agreement shall survive, and shall continue in full force and effect, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable shall not invalidate the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

8.3 Amendments; Waivers. Subject to Section 8.22 (Additional First Lien Facility or Second Lien Facility) hereof, no amendment, modification or waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement by the First Lien Agent or the Second Lien Agent shall be deemed to be made unless the same shall be in writing signed on behalf of the party making the same or its authorized agent and each waiver, 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 to such party in any other respect or at any other time. The Company and the other Pledgors shall not have any right to consent to or approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement except in respect of the provisions of this Agreement set forth in Section 8.17 below or otherwise to the extent their rights are affected, in which case the Company shall have the right to consent to or approve any such amendment, modification or waiver.

8.4 Information Concerning Financial Condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries. No First Lien Secured Party shall have any obligation to the Second Lien Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Party to keep the Second Lien Agent or such Second Lien Secured Party informed of, and the Second Lien Agent and the other Second Lien Secured Parties shall not be entitled to rely on the First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party with respect to, (a) the financial condition of the Company and its subsidiaries and all endorsers, pledgors and/or guarantors of the Second Lien Obligations or the First Lien Obligations and (b) all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Second Lien Obligations or the First Lien Obligations. No Second Lien Secured Party shall have any obligation to the First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party to keep the First Lien Agent or such First Lien Secured Party informed of, and the First Lien Agent and the other First Lien Secured Parties shall not be entitled to rely on the Second Lien Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Party with respect to, (a) the financial condition of the Company and its subsidiaries and all endorsers, pledgors and/or guarantors of the First Lien Obligations or the Second Lien Obligations and (b) all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the First Lien Obligations or the Second Lien Obligations. The First Lien Agent, or any other First Lien Secured Party, or the Second Lien Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Party shall not have any duty to advise any other party hereunder of information known to it or them regarding such condition or any such circumstances or otherwise. In the event that the First Lien Agent, any other First Lien Secured Party, the Second Lien Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Party, in its or their sole discretion, undertakes at any time or from time to time to provide any such information to any other party, it or they shall be under no obligation (w) to make, and none of the First Lien Agent, the other First Lien Secured Parties, the Second Lien Agent or the other Second Lien Secured Parties shall make, any express or implied representation or warranty,

including with respect to the accuracy, completeness, truthfulness or validity of any such information so provided, (x) to provide any additional information or to provide any such information on any subsequent occasion, (y) to undertake any investigation or (z) to disclose any information that, pursuant to accepted or reasonable commercial finance practices, such party wishes to maintain confidential or is otherwise required to maintain confidential.

8.5 Subrogation. The Second Lien Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Second Lien Secured Parties, hereby waives any rights of subrogation it may acquire as a result of any payment hereunder or under any First Lien Documents until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred and hereby agrees that no payment to the First Lien Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or any First Lien Document shall entitle the Second Lien Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Party to exercise any rights of subrogation in respect thereof until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred.

8.6 Application of Payments. Except as otherwise provided herein, all payments received by any First Lien Secured Party may be applied, reversed and reapplied, in whole or in part, to such part of the First Lien Obligations as the First Lien Agent in its sole discretion deems appropriate, consistent with the terms of the First Lien Documents. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Second Lien Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Second Lien Secured Parties, assents to any such extension or postponement of the time of payment of the First Lien Obligations or any part thereof and to any other indulgence with respect thereto, to any substitution, exchange or release of any security that may at any time secure any part of the First Lien Obligations and to the addition or release of any other person primarily or secondarily liable therefor.

(a) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York City, and any appellate court from any thereof (collectively, “New York Courts”), in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

8.20 Relative Rights. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary (except to the extent contemplated by Section 5.3(b)), nothing in this Agreement is intended to or will (a) amend, waive or otherwise modify any provisions of any First Lien Document or any Second Lien Document, or is intended to or will permit Holdings, any Legacy Blocker Entity, the Company or any subsidiary thereof to take any action, or fail to take any action, to the extent such action or failure would otherwise constitute a breach of, or default under, any First Lien Document or any Second Lien Document; (b) change the relative priorities of the First Lien Obligations or the Liens granted under the First Lien Documents on the Common Collateral (or any other assets) as among the First Lien Secured Parties, it being expressly acknowledged and agreed that such relative priorities may be subject to any intercreditor agreements governing such relative priorities; (c) change the relative priorities of the Second Lien Obligations or the Liens granted under the Second Lien Documents on the Common Collateral (or any other assets) as among the Second Lien Secured Parties, it being expressly acknowledged and agreed that such relative priorities may be subject to any intercreditor agreements governing such relative priorities; or (d) obligate Holdings, any Legacy Blocker Entity, the Company or any subsidiary thereof to take any action, or fail to take any action, that would otherwise constitute a breach of, or default under, any First Lien Document or any Second Lien Document.

8.21 References. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any references contained herein to any Section, clause, paragraph, definition or other provision of the Second Lien Agreement (including any definition contained therein) shall be deemed to be a reference to such Section, clause, paragraph, definition or other provision as in effect on the date of this Agreement; provided, that any reference to any such Section, clause, paragraph or other provision shall refer to such Section, clause, paragraph or other provision of the Second Lien Agreement, as applicable (including any definition contained therein), as amended or modified from time to time if such amendment or modification has been (1) made in accordance with the Second Lien Agreement, and (2) either made in accordance with the RBL Credit Agreement and the other First Lien Documents or is approved in writing by, or on behalf of, the requisite First Lien Secured Parties as are needed under the terms of the RBL Credit Agreement and the other First Lien Documents, as applicable, to approve such amendment or modification.

(a) The Company may designate hereunder in writing additional obligations as a First Lien Facility or a Second Lien Facility, and may specify that any such additional obligations constitute a Refinancing of any existing First Lien Obligations or any Second Lien Obligations, as the case may be, without the consent of any other First Lien Secured Party or any other Second Lien Secured Party, as applicable, if the incurrence of such obligations and related Liens is not prohibited under the First Lien Documents and the Second Lien Documents then in effect. For the avoidance of doubt, the designation of an additional First Lien Facility pursuant to the terms hereof is not intended to and shall not have the effect, either directly or indirectly, of granting, creating or perfecting a lien on Borrowing Base Properties (as

defined in the RBL Credit Agreement) that is equal in right or prior in right to the priority of the lien of the Security Documents (as that term is defined in the RBL Credit Agreement) in favor of the Secured Parties (as such term is defined in the RBL Credit Agreement), even if such obligations and Liens are otherwise permitted pursuant to the terms of the RBL Credit Agreement, it being the intention that this Agreement sets forth the relative priority of First Lien Obligations on the one hand and Second Lien Obligations on the other hand, and that the relative priority of First Lien Obligations shall be a matter of applicable law or as otherwise agreed among the First Lien Secured Parties (it being further understood and agreed that this sentence may be amended or modified solely with the consent of the First Lien Secured Parties and the Company and without otherwise affecting the rights and obligations of any party hereto).

(b) If not so prohibited and if the Company wishes to so designate, the Company shall notify each Representative in writing of such designation.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 8.22 or in Section 8.3 (Amendments; Waivers) hereof, the First Lien Agent and the Second Lien Agent shall (i) to the extent applicable, provide written notice that the applicable agent for any such additional obligations that are designated as a First Lien Facility or Second Lien Facility, as applicable, has become the First Lien Agent or Second Lien Agent, as applicable, and (ii) at the request of the Company, without the consent of any First Lien Secured Party or any Second Lien Secured Party, enter into an amendment, a restatement or a supplement of this Agreement to facilitate the designation of a First Lien Facility or a Second Lien Facility. Any such amendment may, among other things:

(i) add other parties holding First Lien Obligations or Second Lien Obligations (or any agent or trustee therefor), as the case may be, to the extent such Indebtedness is not prohibited by the applicable Document; and

(ii) in the case of additional Second Lien Obligations, (A) establish that the Liens on the Common Collateral securing such Second Lien Obligations shall be junior and subordinate in all respects to all Liens on the Common Collateral securing any present or future First Lien Obligations, and (B) provide to holders of such Second Lien Obligations (or any agent or trustee thereof) the comparable rights and benefits (including any improved rights and benefits that have been consented to by the First Lien Agent) as are provided to the Second Lien Secured Parties under this Agreement.

(d) Any such additional party as described in clause (c) above, the First Lien Agent and the Second Lien Agent shall be entitled to rely on the determination of officers of the Company that such modifications do not violate any applicable Documents then in effect, if such determination is set forth in an officer’s certificate delivered by the Company at the request of such party, the First Lien Agent or the Second Lien Agent; provided, however, that such determination will not affect whether or not the Company has complied with its undertakings in such Documents.

(e) At the request of the Company, without the consent of any First Lien Secured Party or any other Second Lien Secured Party, the First Lien Agent and the Second Lien Agent shall enter into an amendment, a restatement or a supplement of this Agreement to facilitate the designation of a First Lien Facility or a Second Lien Facility. For the avoidance of doubt, such actions shall not be required for the effectiveness of any such designation of a First Lien Facility or a Second Lien Facility.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, each party hereto agrees that the First Lien Secured Parties (as among themselves) and the Second Lien Secured Parties (as among themselves) may each enter into intercreditor agreements (or similar arrangements) with the First Lien Agent or Second Lien Agent, respectively, governing the rights, benefits and privileges as among the First Lien Secured Parties themselves or among the Second Lien Secured Parties themselves, as the case may be, in respect of any or all of the Common Collateral, this Agreement and the other First Lien Collateral Documents or the other Second Lien Collateral Documents, as the case may be, including as to the application of proceeds of any Common Collateral, voting rights, control of any Common Collateral and waivers with respect to any Common Collateral, in each case so long as the terms thereof do not violate or conflict with the provisions of this Agreement.

(b) In addition, in the event that the Company or any subsidiary thereof incurs any obligations secured by a Lien on any Common Collateral that is junior to Liens thereon securing any First Lien Obligations or Second Lien Obligations, as the case may be, and such obligations are not designated by the Company as a Second Lien Facility, then the First Lien Agent and Second Lien Agent may enter into an intercreditor agreement with the agent or trustee for the creditors with respect to such secured obligation to reflect the relative Lien priorities of such parties with respect to the relevant portion of the Common Collateral and governing the relative rights, benefits and privileges as among such parties in respect of such Common Collateral, including as to application of the proceeds of such Common Collateral, voting rights, control of such Common Collateral and waivers with respect to such Common Collateral, in each case so long as such secured obligations are not prohibited under, and the terms of such intercreditor agreement do not violate or conflict with, the provisions of this Agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed by their respective authorized officers as of the date first above written.
