In connection with any transfer under clause (i) of the immediately preceding sentence, each of the First Lien Representative and the Super Senior Representative agrees to take all commercially reasonable actions as shall be reasonably requested by the Second Lien Representative to permit the Second Lien Representative to obtain, for the benefit of the Second Lien Secured Parties, a first priority security interest in the Pledged or Controlled Collateral.

(d) The Second Lien Representative agrees that if it shall at any time prior to the Discharge of First Lien Secured Obligations hold a Second Priority Lien on any Pledged or Controlled Collateral and if, notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement (and disregarding any control the Second Lien Representative might have solely as a result of the foregoing provisions of this Article V), such Pledged or Controlled Collateral is in fact in the possession or under the control of the Second Lien Representative, or of agents or bailees of the Second Lien Representative, the Second Lien Representative shall (i) solely for the purpose of perfecting by possession or control, as applicable, the First Priority Liens granted under the First Lien Loan Documents, also hold and control such Pledged or Controlled Collateral as gratuitous bailee and gratuitous agent for the First Lien Representative (and hereby acknowledges that it has control of any Pledged or Controlled Collateral in its control on behalf of and for the benefit of the First Lien Representative), (ii) solely for the purpose of perfecting by possession or control, as applicable, the First Priority Liens granted under the Super Senior Loan Documents, also hold and control such Pledged or Controlled Collateral as gratuitous bailee and gratuitous agent for the Super Senior Representative (and hereby acknowledges that it has control of any Pledged or Controlled Collateral in its control on behalf of and for the benefit of the Super Senior Representative), (iii) promptly inform the First Lien Representative and the Super Senior Representative thereof and (iiiiv) other than with respect to any deposit account as to which control is maintained pursuant to Section 9-104(a)(1) of the Uniform Commercial Code, transfer the possession and control of such Pledged or Controlled Collateral, together with any necessary endorsements but without recourse, representation or warranty, to the Controlling First Lien Representative and, in connection therewith, take all commercially reasonable actions as shall be reasonably requested by the Controlling First Lien Representative to permit the Controlling First Lien Representative to obtain, for the benefit of the First Lien Secured Parties and the Super Senior Secured Parties, a first priority security interest in such Pledged or Controlled Collateral.

(i) will be deemed to have consented to, and will not oppose or object to (or support any other Person in opposing or objecting to), the use of any Collateral constituting cash collateral under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any comparable provision of any other Bankruptcy Law, that is consented to, or not opposed or objected to, by the First Lien Representative or any other representative authorized by the First Lien Secured Parties or the Super Senior Representative or any other representative authorized by the Super Senior Secured Parties (and neither the Second Lien Representative nor any Second Lien Secured Party shall seek any relief in connection therewith that is in conflict with the relief being sought by the First Lien Secured Parties or Super Senior Secured Parties (it being understood that the foregoing shall not affect the rights of the Second Lien Secured Parties to seek adequate protection as provided in Section 6.01(b)));

(ii) will be deemed to have consented to, and will not oppose or object to (or support any other Person in opposing or objecting to), any post-petition financing provided by one or more of the First Lien Secured Parties or one or more of the Super Senior Secured Parties under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any comparable provision of any other Bankruptcy Law (a “DIP Financing”), or the Liens securing any DIP Financing (“DIP Financing Liens”), that is consented to, or not opposed or objected to, by the First Lien Representative, the Super Senior Representative or any other representative authorized by the First Lien Secured Parties or the Super Senior Secured Parties and, to the extent that (A) such DIP Financing Liens are senior to, or rank pari passu with, the First Priority Liens securing the First Lien Secured Obligations and Super Senior Secured Obligations, (B) the economic terms of such DIP Financing (i.e., the interest rate, fees, original issue discount and other similar terms) and the scheduled amortization applicable to such DIP Financing are on commercially reasonable terms, (C) such DIP Financing does not compel the Borrower or any other Grantor to seek confirmation of a specific plan of reorganization of which the material terms are set forth in the DIP Financing documentation or a relateddocument (it being agreed that the inclusion of termination events or milestones in the DIP Financing documentation shall not be deemed to constitute such a condition), (D) the DIP Financing documentation does not expressly require the sale, disposition or liquidation of all or any material portion of the Collateral prior to a default under the DIP Financing documentation, (E) the Second Lien Secured Parties are not required to release their Liens on the Collateral as a condition to such DIP Financing and (F) the sum of (x) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of loans and letters of credit under, together with the aggregate amount of undrawn commitments under, any DIP Financing (after giving effect to any Refinancing or “roll-up” of First Lien Loan Document Obligations and/or the Super Senior Loan Document Obligations) plus (y) the aggregate outstanding amount of the Capped First Lien Loan Document Obligations does not exceed the Maximum First Lien Principal Amount, the Second Lien Representative will, for itself and on behalf of the other Second Lien Secured Parties, subordinate (and will be deemed to have subordinated) the Second Priority Liens to (1) the First Priority Liens and the DIP Financing Liens on the terms of this Agreement and (2) any customary “carve-out” for U.S. trustee fees specified in the financing order relating to such DIP Financing;

(iii) except to the extent permitted by Section 6.01(b), in connection with the use of cash collateral as described in clause (i) above or a DIP Financing, will not request adequate protection or any other relief in connection with such use of cash collateral, DIP Financing or DIP Financing Liens; and

(iv) will be deemed to have consented to, and will not oppose or object to (or support any other Person in opposing or objecting to) any Disposition of any Collateral free and clear of the Second Priority Liens or other claims under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (provided that the Second Lien Representative may object to the Disposition on any grounds that may be asserted by an unsecured creditor), or any comparable provision of any other Bankruptcy Law, if the First Lien Secured Parties, or a representative authorized by the First Lien Secured Parties, and the Super Senior Secured Parties, or a representative authorized by the Super Senior Secured Parties, shall consent to, or not oppose or object to, such Disposition;provided that, in the case of any such Disposition, notwithstanding the release of the Second Priority Liens thereon, the Second Priority Liens shall attach to the Proceeds thereof subject to the relative priorities set forth in Section 2.01 (and, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing in the foregoing shall be deemed to be a release of the Second Priority Liens on any such Proceeds, it being the express intent of the Second Lien Secured Parties that the Second Priority Liens attach to such Proceeds).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, nothing in this Section 6.01(a) shall prohibit any Second Lien Secured Party from proposing a DIP Financing so long as (A) no First Lien Secured Party and no Super Senior Secured Party has offered to provide a DIP Financing within three days of commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, (B) the DIP Financing Liens with respect to such DIP Financing are junior to the First Priority Liens securing the First Lien Secured Obligations and the Super Senior Secured Obligations, (C) the economic terms of such DIP Financing (i.e., the interest rate, fees, original issue discount and other similar terms) and the scheduled amortization applicable to such DIP Financing are on commercially reasonable terms, (D) such DIP Financing does not compel the Borrower or any other Grantor to seek confirmation of a specific plan of reorganization of which the material terms are set forth in the DIP Financing documentation or a related document (it being agreed that the inclusion of termination events or milestones in the DIP Financing documentation shall not be deemed to constitute such a condition), (E) the DIP Financing documentation does not expressly require the sale, disposition or liquidation of all or any material portion of the Collateral prior to a default under the DIP Financing documentation, (F) the First Lien Secured Parties and the Super Senior Secured Parties are not required to release their Liens on the Collateral as a condition to such DIP Financing and (G) the sum of (x) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of loans and letters of credit under, together with the aggregate amount of undrawn commitments under, any such DIP Financing (after giving effect to any Refinancing or “roll-up” of Second Lien Secured Obligations) plus (y) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Second Lien Secured Obligations does not exceed the Maximum Second Lien Principal Amount plus $30,000,000.

(a) The Second Lien Representative, for itself and on behalf of the other Second Lien Secured Parties, agrees that, until the Discharge of First Lien Loan Document Obligations has occurred, no Second Lien Secured Party shall contest, or join or otherwise support any other Person in contesting, (i) any request by the First Lien Representative or any other First Lien Secured Party or the Super Senior Representative or any other Super Senior Secured Party for adequate protection or (ii) any objection, based on a claim of a lack of adequate protection, by the First Lien Representative or any other First Lien Secured Party or the Super Senior Representative or any other Super Senior Secured Party to any motion, relief, action or proceeding. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, (A) if any First Lien Secured Party or Super Senior Secured Party is granted adequate protection in the form of a replacement Lien or a Lien on additional collateral, the Second Lien Representative may, for itself and on behalf of the other Second Lien Secured Parties, seek or request adequate protection in the form of a replacement Lien or a Lien on such additional collateral, which Liens will be subordinated to the First Priority Liens and DIP Financing Liens on the same basis as the other Second Priority Liens are subordinated to the First Priority Liens under this Agreement, and (B) the Second Lien Representative and other Second Lien Secured Parties may seek adequate protection with respect to their rights in the Collateral in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in the form of (x) Liens on additional collateral or replacement Liens on the Collateral, provided that, in either such case, as adequate protection for the First Lien Secured Obligations, the First Lien Representative, on behalf of the First Lien Secured Parties, and as adequate protection for the Super Senior Secured Obligations, the Super Senior Representative, on behalf of the Super Senior Secured Parties, is also granted (or has previously been granted) a senior Lien on such additional collateral or senior replacement Liens on the Collateral, as applicable, (y) an administrative expense claim (including a superpriority administrative claim), provided that, as adequate protection for the First Lien Secured Obligations, the First Lien Representative, on behalf of the First Lien Secured Parties and as adequate protection for the Super Senior Secured Obligations, the Super Senior Representative, on behalf of the Super Senior Secured Parties, is also granted (or has previously been granted) an administrative expense claim that is senior and prior to the administrative expense claim (including any superpriority administrative claim) of the Second Lien Representative and the Second Lien Secured Parties, or (z) the current payment of out-of-pocket fees and expenses of counsel and advisors incurred by the Second Lien Representative;provided further that, in the case of each of clauses (x) and (y), (I) to the extent the First Lien Secured Parties and the Super Senior Secured Parties are not granted such adequate protection in the applicable form, any amounts recovered by or distributed to any Second Lien Secured Party pursuant to or as a result of any such Lien on additional collateral, any such replacement Lien or any such administrative expense claim granted to or for the benefit of the Second Lien Secured Parties shall be subject to Section 4.02 and (II) the Second Lien Secured Parties shall have agreed (and by virtue of accepting any such adequate protection shall be deemed to have agreed) pursuant to Section 1129(a)(9) of the Bankruptcy Code that any Section 507(b) claims arising in respect of any adequate protection granted to the Second Lien Secured Parties may be paid under a plan of reorganization in any form having a value on the effective date of such plan equal to the allowed amount of such claims (i.e., are not required to be paid solely in cash). It is understood and agreed that nothing in clause (B) above shall modify or otherwise affect the other agreements by or on behalf of the Second Lien Representative or the Second Lien Secured Parties set forth in this Agreement (including the agreements to consent to or not to oppose or object that are set forth in Section 6.01(a)). Until the Discharge of First Lien Loan Document Obligations has occurred, the Second Lien Representative, for itself and on behalf of the other Second Lien Secured Parties, agrees that, in the event of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, except to the extent permitted by the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.01(b), the Second Lien Secured Parties will not assert any claim (or support any other Person in asserting any claim) under Section 507(b) of the Bankruptcy Code.

SECTION 6.02. Relief from the Automatic Stay. The Second Lien Representative, for itself and on behalf of the other Second Lien Secured Parties, agrees that, so long as the Discharge of First Lien Loan Document Obligations has not occurred, no Second Lien Secured Party shall, without the prior written consent of the First Lien Representative and the Super Senior Representative, seek or request relief from or modification of the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of any part of the Collateral, any Proceeds thereof or any Second Priority Lien.

SECTION 6.03. Reorganization Securities. Nothing in this Agreement prohibits or limits the right of the Second Lien Representative or any other Second Lien Secured Party to receive and retain any debt or equity obligations or securities that are issued by a reorganized debtor pursuant to a plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan in connection with any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding (any such debt or equity obligations or securities, “Reorganization Securities”). If, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, Reorganization Securities are so permitted to be distributed on account of both the First Lien Secured Obligations, the Super Senior Secured Obligations and the Second Lien Secured Obligations, then, to the extent the Reorganization Securities distributed on account of the First Lien Secured Obligations, the Super Senior Secured Obligations and on account of the Second Lien Secured Obligations are secured by Liens upon the same assets or property, the provisions of this Agreement will survive the distribution of such Reorganization Securities pursuant to such plan and will apply with like effect to the Liens securing such Reorganization Securities.

SECTION 6.04. Post-Petition Interest. (a) The Second Lien Representative, for itself and on behalf of the other Second Lien Secured Parties, agrees that no Second Lien Secured Party shall oppose or seek to challenge (or support any other Person in opposing or challenging) any claim by the First Lien Representative or any other First Lien Secured Party or the Super Senior Representative or any other Super Senior Secured Party for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of First Lien Secured Obligations or Super Senior Secured Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees, expenses or indemnities to the extent of the value of the First Priority Liens (it being understood and agreed that such value shall be determined without regard to the existence of the Second Priority Liens on the Collateral).

(a) The First Lien Representative, for itself and on behalf of the other First Lien Secured Parties, agrees that no First Lien Secured Party shall oppose or seek to challenge (or support any other Person in opposing or challenging) any claim by the Second Lien Representative or any other Second Lien Secured Party for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of Second Lien Secured Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees, expenses or indemnities to the extent of the value of the Second Priority Liens (it being understood and agreed that such value shall be determined taking into account the First Priority Liens on the Collateral and the amount of the First Lien Secured Obligations secured thereby). The Super Senior Representative, for itself and on behalf of the other Super Senior Secured Parties, agrees that no Super Senior Secured Party shall oppose or seek to challenge (or support any other Person in opposing or challenging) any claim by the Second Lien Representative or any other Second Lien Secured Party for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of Second Lien Secured Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees, expenses or indemnities to the extent of the value of the Second Priority Liens (it being understood and agreed that such value shall be determined taking into account the First Priority Liens on the Collateral and the amount of the Super Senior Secured Obligations secured thereby).

SECTION 6.05. Certain Waivers by the Second Lien Secured Parties. The Second Lien Representative, for itself and on behalf of the other Second Lien Secured Parties, waives any claim any Second Lien Secured Party may hereafter have against any First Lien Secured Party and any Super Senior Secured Party arising out of (a) the election by any First Lien Secured Party or any Super Senior Secured Party of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, or any comparable provision of any other Bankruptcy Law, or (b) any use of cash collateral or financing arrangement, or any grant of a security interest in the Collateral, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding to the extent that the same is not in contravention of this Agreement.

SECTION 6.06. Certain Voting Matters. Each of the First Lien Representative, for itself and on behalf of the other First Lien Secured Parties and the Super Senior Representative, for itself and on behalf of the other Super Senior Secured Parties, on the one hand, and the Second Lien Representative, for itself and on behalf of the other Second Lien Secured Parties, on the other hand, agrees that, without the written consent of the other, it will not seek to vote with the other as a single class in connection with any plan of reorganization in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.

SECTION 6.07. Subordination Agreement. The parties hereto expressly acknowledge that this Agreement is intended to constitute a “subordination agreement” within the scope of Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, which will be effective before, during and after the commencement of an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. All references in this Agreement to any Grantor will include such Person as a debtor-in-possession and any receiver or trustee for such Person in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.

(d) [Reserved].

(d) The Second Lien Representative, for itself and on behalf of the other Second Lien Secured Parties, and the First Lien Representative, for itself and on behalf of the other First Lien Secured Parties, and the Super Senior Representative, for itself and on behalf of the other Super Senior Secured Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the grants of Liens pursuant to the First Lien Security Documents, the Super Senior Security Documents and the Second Lien Security Documents constitute twothree separate and distinct grants of Liens, and (ii) because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Collateral, the Second Lien Secured Obligations are fundamentally different from the First Lien Secured Obligations (as defined without reference to the final sentence of the definition of such term) and the Super Senior Secured Obligations (as defined without reference to the final sentence of the definition of such term) and must be separately classified in any plan of reorganization proposed or adopted in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, if it is held that the claims of the First Lien Secured Parties, the Super Senior Secured Parties and the Second Lien Secured Parties in respect of the 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 the provisions hereof (including Sections 2.01 and 4.01), all distributions shall be made as if there were separate classes of senior and junior secured claims against the Grantors in respect of the Collateral (with the effect being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all Second Lien Secured Obligations held by the Second Lien Secured Parties) to satisfy the First Lien Secured Obligations and the Super Senior Secured Obligations, the First Lien Secured Parties and the Super Senior Secured Parties shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts otherwise distributed to them in respect of principal, pre-petition interest and other claims constituting First Lien Secured Obligations and Super Senior Secured Obligations, all amounts owing in respect of post-petition interest, including any additional interest payable pursuant to the First Lien Credit Agreement and the Super Senior Credit Agreement, arising from or related to a default, which is included in the First Lien Secured Obligations and/or the Super Senior Secured Obligations but which is disallowed as a claim in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding) before any distribution is made in respect of the claims held by the Second Lien Secured Parties with respect to the Collateral, and the Second Lien Representative, for itself and on behalf of the other Second Lien Secured Parties, hereby acknowledges and agrees to turn over to the Controlling First Lien Representative, for itself and on behalf of the other First Lien Secured Parties and/or the other Super Senior Secured Parties, as applicable, amounts otherwise received or receivable by the Second Lien Secured Parties to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence (with respect to the payment of post-petition interest), even if such turnover has the effect of reducing the claim or recovery of the Second Lien Secured Parties.
