(b) This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Loan Parties.

(c) This Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Company, enforceable against each such Person in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by Debtor Relief Laws by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

(d) No Default or Event of Default has occurred or is continuing or would exist, in each case, after giving effect to this Agreement.

(e) After giving effect to this Agreement, the representations and warranties of the Borrower, and each of the other Loan Parties contained in the Credit Agreement and each other Loan Document are true and correct in all material respects; provided that, to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, they shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date; provided, further, that any representation and warranty that is qualified as to “materiality,” “Material Adverse Effect” or similar language shall be true and correct (after giving effect to any qualification therein) in all respects on such respective dates.

(b) This Agreement shall constitute a Loan Document.

(c) The Borrower, on behalf of itself and each other Loan Party, hereby confirms and agrees that, notwithstanding the effectiveness of this Agreement, each Loan Document to which any Loan Party is a party is, and the obligations of each Loan Party contained in the Credit Agreement, this Agreement or in any other Loan Document to which it is a party are, and shall continue to be, in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects, in each case as modified by this Agreement. For greater certainty and without limiting the foregoing, the Borrower, on behalf of itself and each other Loan Party, hereby confirms that the existing security interests granted by the Loan Parties in favor of the Secured Parties pursuant to the Loan Documents in the Collateral described therein shall continue to secure the Obligations as and to the extent provided in the Loan Documents.

Except as expressly set forth herein, this Agreement shall not by implication or otherwise limit, impair, constitute a waiver of, or otherwise affect the rights and remedies of any party under, the Credit Agreement, nor alter, modify, amend or in any way affect any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Credit Agreement, all of which are ratified and affirmed in all respects and shall continue in full force and effect.

SECTION 11. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected or impaired thereby.

Execution Version

SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT

THIS SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), is entered into as of November 10 , 2022, (the “Effective Date”), by and between JEFFERIES FINANCE LLC (“Senior Agent”) and DEERFIELD PARTNERS, L.P. (“Subordinated Agent”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given them in Section 1(a) below.

WHEREAS, CareMax, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”), is indebted to Senior Creditor pursuant to that certain Credit Agreement dated as of May 10, 2022, (as may be amended, modified, restated, extended or supplemented from time to time, the “Senior Creditor Agreement”), by and between Borrower, the Guarantors (as defined therein) party thereto, from time to time, including the AR Borrower (as defined below), the Lenders (as defined therein), party thereto from time to time and Senior Agent. The funds advanced to or owed by Borrower under the Senior Creditor Agreement shall be referred to collectively herein as the “Senior Loans.” To secure the Senior Loans, the Loan Parties (as defined in the Senior Creditor Agreement) (including the AR Borrower) have granted (or in the future may grant) to Senior Creditor a security interest in all of their personal property assets.

B. WHEREAS, Sparta Merger Sub I, LLC, Sparta Merger Sub II LLC, Sparta Merger Sub I Inc., Sparta Merger Sub II Inc., Steward Accountable Care Network, LLC and Steward National Care Network, LLC, (collectively, and together with any permitted successors and assigns the “AR Borrower”) have entered into that certain Loan and Security Agreement, dated on or about the date hereof (the “AR Creditor Agreement”), between the AR Borrower and Subordinated Agent.

C. WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of the AR Creditor Agreement, each AR Borrower has provided a cross-guaranty in favor of the Subordinated Creditor pursuant to which each AR Borrower jointly and severally guarantees, as primary obligors and not merely as sureties to the Subordinated Creditor, the prompt payment and performance in full when due of the “Obligations” (as defined in the AR Creditor Agreement) from time to time owing to the Subordinated Creditor by the AR Borrower.

D. NOW THEREFORE, Subordinated Creditor and AR Borrower desire to obtain Senior Creditor’s consent to the Subordinated Guaranty Documents (as defined below), and Subordinated Creditor and Senior Creditor desire to agree to and to set forth their respective rights, priorities and interests governing their respective relationships with the AR Borrower, the AR Collateral and the Subordinated Guaranty Documents with respect to the Senior Loan Documents at all times on and after the Effective Date.

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of AR Borrower’s and Subordinated Creditor’s entering into the AR Creditor Agreement and the other Subordinated Guaranty Documents, Subordinated Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Subordinated Creditors, and Senior Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Senior Creditors, hereby agree as follows:

1. DEFINITIONS; EFFECTIVENESS

(a) DEFINITIONS. As used herein, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

“AR Collateral” means, collectively, (a) the “Collateral” as defined in the AR Creditor Agreement as in effect on the date hereof and any proceeds thereof and (b) the “Medicare AR Reconciliation Payment”, as defined in the Collateral Assignment, as in effect on the date hereof, and the proceeds thereof.

“Collateral Assignment” has the meaning assigned to such term in the AR Creditor Agreement. “Permitted Payments” has the meaning assigned to such term in Section 8.

“Senior Creditor” means, collectively, the Senior Agent and the Secured Parties (as defined in the Senior Creditor Agreement).

“Senior Debt” means any and all indebtedness and obligations for borrowed money (including, without limitation, principal, premium (if any), interest, fees, charges, expenses, costs, professional fees and expenses, and reimbursement obligations) at any time owing by Borrower and the Loan Parties (as defined in the Senior Creditor Agreement) to Senior Creditor under the Senior Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the Obligations (as defined in the Senior Creditor Agreement)) and all other credit relationships with Senior Creditor including but not limited to such amounts as may accrue or be incurred before or after default or workout or the commencement of any liquidation, dissolution, bankruptcy, receivership, or reorganization case by or against Borrower or any Loan Party (as defined in the Senior Creditor Agreement), and any other credit extensions or agreements between Borrower or any Loan Party (as defined in the Senior Creditor Agreement) and Senior Creditor, including, but not limited to, letters of credit, interest rate swap arrangements, foreign exchange services, cash management services, credit cards, overdrafts, etc.

“Senior Loan Documents” means the Senior Creditor Agreement and any other agreement, security agreement, document, promissory note, UCC financing statement, or instrument executed by Borrower in favor of Senior Creditor, as the same may from time to time be amended, modified, restated, extended or supplemented.

“Subordinated Creditor” means, collectively, the Subordinated Agent and the Lenders (as defined in the AR Creditor Agreement).

“Subordinated Guaranty Documents” means the AR Creditor Agreement and any other agreement, document, promissory note, financing statement, or instrument executed by the AR Borrower or the AR Borrower in favor of Subordinated Creditor pursuant to or in connection with the Subordinated Guaranty, as the same may from time to time be amended, modified, supplemented, extended, renewed, restated or replaced.

“Subordinated Obligations” means any and all indebtedness and obligations for borrowed money (including, without limitation, principal, premium (if any), interest, fees, charges, expenses, costs, professional fees and expenses, and reimbursement obligations) at any time owing by any AR Borrower to Subordinated Creditor under the Subordinated Guaranty Documents (including, without limitation, the Obligations (as defined in the AR Creditor Agreement) and the obligations under the AR Guaranty), including but not limited to such amounts as may accrue or be incurred before or after default or workout or the commencement of any liquidation, dissolution, bankruptcy, receivership, or reorganization case by or against any AR Borrower.

Unless otherwise specified, all references in this Agreement to a “Section” shall refer to the corresponding Section in or to this Agreement. The capitalized term “Collateral” as used in this Agreement has the meaning ascribed to such term in the Senior Creditor Agreement.

2. SUBORDINATION

(a) On the terms and conditions set forth below, Subordinated Creditor’s right to payment and performance of the Subordinated Obligations is hereby subordinated to Senior Creditor’s right to full payment and performance of the Senior Debt. Subject to and except as set forth in Section 8, Subordinated Creditor shall not ask, demand, sue for, take or receive from any AR Borrower, by setoff or in any other manner, the whole or any part of any monies which may now or hereafter be owing by any AR Borrower to Subordinated Creditor, or be owing by any other person to Subordinated Creditor under a guaranty or similar instrument on account of the Subordinated Obligations, nor any collateral security for any of the foregoing (other than the AR Collateral), unless and until the Senior Debt shall have been fully paid in cash and all commitments to extend credit under the Senior Creditor Agreement shall have been terminated (the temporary reduction of outstanding obligations, liabilities and indebtedness of Borrower to Senior Creditor not being deemed to constitute full payment or satisfaction thereof).

(b) Subordinated Creditor shall not create, maintain or perfect any security interest in or lien on any property of AR Borrower other than the security interests and liens granted in favor of Subordinated Creditor in the AR Collateral. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, any lien shall be created or shall arise (including, without limitation, the security interests granted in favor of Subordinated Creditor pursuant to the Subordinated Guaranty Documents), whether by operation of law or otherwise, and may from time to time exist in favor of Subordinated Creditor in or on any property of AR Borrower to secure all or any portion of the Subordinated Obligations (other than the AR Collateral), then any liens granted by AR Borrower in favor of Senior Creditor to secure the Senior Debt shall in all respects be first and senior liens, superior to any liens in favor of Subordinated Creditor securing the Subordinated Obligations notwithstanding (i) the date, manner or order of perfection of the security interests and liens granted in favor of Senior Creditor, (ii) the provisions of the UCC or any other applicable laws or decisions, (iii) the provisions of any contract in effect between Senior Creditor, on the one hand, and AR Borrower or any affiliate thereof, on the other, and (iv) whether Senior Creditor or any agent or bailee thereof holds possession of any part or all of the Collateral. In the event Subordinated Creditor has or obtains possession of any such property or forecloses upon or enforces its lien upon any such property (other than the AR Collateral), whether by judicial action or otherwise, then all such property shall be immediately delivered in kind to Senior Agent or, if not deliverable in kind, all cash or non-cash proceeds and profits of such property shall be held in trust for the benefit of Senior Creditor and paid over to Senior Creditor, without any deduction or offset, unless and until all of the Senior Debt shall have been paid in cash in full and all commitments to extend credit under the Senior Creditor Agreement shall have been terminated.

(c) The subordination contained in this Agreement is intended to define the rights and duties of Subordinated Creditor and Senior Creditor; it is not intended that any third party (including any bankruptcy trustee, receiver, or debtor-in-possession) shall benefit from it. If the effect of the subordination contained in this Agreement would be to give any third party a priority status to which that party would not otherwise be entitled, then that provision shall, to the extent necessary to avoid that priority, be given no effect and the rights and priorities of Senior Creditor and Subordinated Creditor shall be determined in accordance with applicable law and this Agreement.

(d) In the event of the occurrence of an Insolvency Event (as hereinafter defined), (i) this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with Section 510(a) of the United States Bankruptcy Code, and (ii) the Collateral and AR Collateral, respectively, shall include, without limitation, all Collateral and all AR Collateral, respectively, arising during or after any such Insolvency Event.

(e) The failure of AR Borrower to make any payment with respect to the Subordinated Guaranty Documents by reason of the operation of Section 2(a) above shall not be construed as preventing the occurrence of a default under the applicable Subordinated Guaranty Documents, or the imposition and accrual of any default rate of interest under the Subordinated Guaranty Documents as in effect on the date hereof or as amended as permitted hereunder.

3. LIEN PRIORITY

(a) Relative Priorities. Notwithstanding the date, manner or order of grant, attachment or perfection of any liens securing the Subordinated Obligations granted on the AR Collateral or of any liens securing Senior Obligations granted on the AR Collateral and notwithstanding any provision of the UCC, any applicable law or the Senior Loan Documents, the Senior Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Senior Creditors, hereby agrees that: (a) any lien on the AR Collateral securing any Senior Debt now or hereafter held by or on behalf of the Senior Creditor or any agent or trustee therefor, regardless of how acquired, whether by grant, possession, statute, operation of law, subrogation or otherwise, shall be junior and subordinated in all respects and prior to any lien on the AR Collateral securing any of the Obligations (as defined in the AR Creditor Agreement) and (b) any lien on the AR Collateral now or hereafter held by or on behalf of the Subordinated Agent, any Subordinated Creditor or any agent or trustee therefor regardless of how acquired, whether by grant, possession, statute, operation of law, subrogation or otherwise, shall be senior in all respects to all liens on the AR Collateral securing any Senior Debt.

(b) Failure To Perfect. All liens on the AR Collateral securing any Subordinated Obligations shall be and remain senior in all respects and prior to all liens on the AR Collateral securing any Senior Debt for all purposes, notwithstanding any failure of the Subordinated Agent or any Subordinated Creditor to adequately perfect its or their security interests in the AR Collateral or the avoidance, invalidation or lapse of any lien on the AR Collateral securing any Subordinated Obligations.

(c) Prohibition on Contesting Liens. The Senior Agent, for itself and on behalf of each other Senior Creditor, and the Subordinated Agent, for itself and on behalf of each other Subordinated Creditor, agrees that it shall not (and hereby waives any right to) contest or support any other person in contesting, in any proceeding (including any Insolvency Event), the priority, validity or enforceability of a lien held by or on behalf of Subordinated Creditor in the AR Collateral or by or on behalf of Senior Creditor in either the Collateral or the AR Collateral, as the case may be; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of Senior Creditor or Subordinated Creditor to enforce this Agreement.

(d) In the event Senior Creditor receives any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, properties or securities, with respect to the AR Collateral, or has or obtains possession of any AR Collateral or forecloses upon or enforces its lien upon any such property, whether by judicial action or otherwise, then all such property shall be immediately delivered in kind to Subordinated Agent or, if not deliverable in kind, all cash or non-cash proceeds and profits of such property shall be held in trust for the benefit of Subordinated Creditor and paid over to Subordinated Creditor, without any deduction or offset.

4. ENFORCEMENT RIGHTS

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2, Subordinated Creditor shall not have rights to accelerate the maturity of the Subordinated Obligations, enforce any claim (including any default remedy) with respect to the Subordinated Obligations, or otherwise to take any action against AR Borrower or AR Borrower’s property with respect to the Subordinated Obligations until the Senior Debt shall have been paid in cash in full; provided, however, (i) Subordinated Creditor may enforce remedies against the AR Collateral and (ii) Subordinated Creditor may file claims upon the occurrence of an Insolvency Event (as defined in Section 6 below) pursuant to the terms of Section 6(b), until the Subordinated Obligations are paid in full

5. ASSIGNMENT OF SUBORDINATED GUARANTY

Subordinated Creditor hereby covenants to Senior Creditor that prior to the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 10, the entire Subordinated Obligations created in favor of Subordinated Creditor shall continue to be owing only to Subordinated Creditor unless assigned pursuant to an assignment made expressly subject to this Agreement.

6. SENIOR CREDITOR’S PRIORITY

In the event of any distribution, division, or application, partial or complete, voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, of all or any part of the property of Borrower or the other Loan Parties (as defined in the Senior Creditor Agreement) or the proceeds thereof to the creditors of Borrower, or the readjustment of the Senior Debt of Borrower, whether by reason of liquidation, bankruptcy, arrangement, receivership, assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other action or proceeding involving the readjustment of all or any part of the Senior Debt, or the application of the property of Borrower or any Loan Party to the payment or liquidation thereof, or upon the dissolution, liquidation, reorganization, or other winding up of the Loan Party’s business, or upon the sale of all or any substantial part of the Loan Party’s property (any of the foregoing being hereinafter referred to as an “Insolvency Event”), then, and in any such event, Senior Creditor shall be entitled to receive the payment in cash in full of the Senior Debt before Subordinated Creditor (other than with respect to Permitted Payments, for which Subordinated Creditor shall be entitled to receive payment in cash in full before Senior Creditor) shall be entitled to receive any payment on account of the Subordinated Obligations, and to that end and in furtherance thereof:

(a) All payments and distributions of any kind or character (other than Permitted Payments), whether in cash, property, or securities, in respect of the Subordinated Obligations to which Subordinated Creditor would be entitled if the Subordinated Obligations were not subordinated pursuant to this Agreement, shall be paid to Senior Creditor and applied in payment of the Senior Debt;

(b) Subordinated Creditor shall file a claim or claims, on the form required in such proceedings, on or before thirty (30) days prior to the last date such claims or proofs of claim may be filed pursuant to law or the order of any court exercising jurisdiction over such proceeding; and

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, properties or securities, shall be received by Subordinated Creditor on account of the Subordinated Obligations (other than Permitted Payments) before all of the Senior Debt has been paid, then such payment or distribution shall be received by Subordinated Creditor in trust for and shall be promptly paid over to Senior Creditor for application to the payments of amounts due on the Senior Debt until the Senior Debt shall have been paid in cash in full.

7. GRANT OF AUTHORITY; AGREEMENTS OF SUBORDINATED CREDITOR

In the event of the occurrence of an Insolvency Event, and in order to enable Senior Creditor to enforce its rights hereunder in any of the aforesaid actions or proceedings, Senior Creditor is hereby irrevocably authorized and empowered, in Senior Creditor’s discretion, as follows:

(a) Senior Creditor is hereby irrevocably authorized and empowered (in its own name or in the name of Subordinated Creditor or otherwise), but shall have no obligation, (i) to demand, sue for, collect and receive every payment or distribution referred to in Section 6, and give acquittance therefor and (ii) (if Subordinated Creditor has failed to file claims or proofs of claim

on or before thirty (30) days prior to the last date such claims or proofs of claim may be filed pursuant to law or the order of any court exercising jurisdiction over such proceeding) to file claims and proofs of claim, and (iii) to take such other action as it may deem necessary or advisable for the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights or interests of Senior Creditor hereunder. Subordinated Creditor shall duly and promptly take such action as Senior Creditor may reasonably request to execute and deliver to Senior Agent such authorizations, endorsements, assignments, or other instruments as Senior Creditor may reasonably request in order to enable Senior Creditor to enforce any and all claims with respect to the Subordinated Obligations as such enforcement is contemplated herein.

(b) To the extent that payments or distributions on account of the Subordinated Obligations are made in property or securities other than cash, Subordinated Creditor authorizes Senior Creditor, to sell or dispose of such property or securities on such terms as are commercially reasonable in the situation in question. Following full payment in cash of the Senior Debt, Senior Creditor shall remit to Subordinated Creditor (with all necessary endorsements), to the extent of Subordinated Creditor’s interest therein, all payments and distributions of cash, property, or securities paid to and held by Senior Creditor in excess of the allowed amount of the Senior Debt.

In addition to and without limiting the foregoing until the Senior Debt has been fully paid in cash and Senior Creditor’s agreements to lend any funds to Borrower have been terminated, Subordinated Creditor shall not commence or join in any involuntary bankruptcy petition or similar judicial proceeding against AR Borrower.

8. PAYMENTS RECEIVED BY SUBORDINATED CREDITOR

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2 and Section 6, AR Borrower or the Borrower shall be permitted to make, and Subordinated Creditor shall be permitted to ask, demand, sue for, take or receive from Borrower, by setoff or in any other manner, the following permitted payments (“Permitted Payments”): (i) any payments received by AR Borrower from the United States Department of Health and Human Services for the Medicare Shared Savings Receivables (as such term is defined in the AR Creditor Agreement as in effect on the date hereof), (ii) any payments received by AR Borrower or the Borrower, constituting a Medicare AR Reconciliation Payment (as defined in the Collateral Assignment) or otherwise pursuant to the Collateral Assignment, (iii) any proceeds from the foreclosure by Subordinated Creditor on the AR Collateral in accordance with the Subordinated Guaranty Documents, (iv) any interest under the AR Creditor Agreement solely to the extent paid on the Closing Date (as defined in the AR Creditor Agreement as in effect on the date hereof) and (v) the Facility Fee, Administrative Fee and Lender Expenses (in each case, as defined in the AR Creditor Agreement as in effect on the date hereof) payable to the Subordinated Creditor pursuant to the terms of the AR Creditor Agreement solely to the extent paid on the Closing Date (as defined in the AR Creditor Agreement as in effect on the date hereof).

9. FURTHER ASSURANCES; COOPERATION

Subject to Section 16(b), Subordinated Creditor agrees to cooperate with Senior Creditor and to take all actions that Senior Creditor may reasonably require to enable Senior Creditor to realize the full benefits of this Agreement.

10. TERMINATION OR AMENDMENT OF AGREEMENT

This Agreement shall be effective upon its execution by each of Senior Agent and Subordinated Agent. After the Effective Date, this Agreement shall remain in effect and cannot be revoked or amended by Subordinated Creditor, except with the prior written consent of Senior Creditor. Senior Creditor and Subordinated Creditor agree that no amendment hereto shall be binding upon AR Borrower unless AR Borrower shall have received notice of such amendment. Subject to Section 14, this Agreement shall terminate upon the date on which both (a) the Senior Debt shall have been paid in cash in full, and (b) the Senior Loan Documents shall have been terminated.

11. ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS FOR SENIOR CREDITOR

Senior Creditor may administer and manage its credit and other relationships with Borrower and AR Borrower in its own best interest, without notice to or consent of Subordinated Creditor. At any time and from time to time, Senior Creditor may enter into any amendment or agreement with Borrower or AR Borrower as Senior Creditor may deem proper, extending the time of payment of or otherwise altering the terms of all or any of the obligations constituting Senior Debt or affecting the collateral security for, supporting or underlying any or all of the Senior Debt, and may exchange, sell, release, surrender or otherwise deal with any such collateral without in any way thereby impairing or affecting this Agreement, and all such additional agreements and amendments shall be Senior Loan Documents evidencing the Senior Debt; provided, that neither this Section 11 nor any provision of such agreements shall affect the limitations contained in the definitions of Senior Creditor or Senior Debt.

12. SUBROGATION

If cash or other property otherwise payable or deliverable to Subordinated Creditor or on account of the Subordinated Obligations shall have been applied pursuant to this Agreement to the payment of the Senior Debt, and if the Senior Debt shall have been paid in cash in full and all commitments to extend credit under the Senior Creditor Agreement shall have been terminated, then Subordinated Creditor shall be subrogated to any rights of Senior Creditor to receive further payments or distributions applicable to the Senior Debt until the Subordinated Obligations shall have been fully paid. No such payments or distributions received by Subordinated Creditor by reason of such subrogation shall, as between AR Borrower and its creditor other than Senior Creditor, on the one hand, and Subordinated Creditor, on the other hand, be deemed to be a payment by AR Borrower on account of the Subordinated Obligations owed to Subordinated Creditor.

13. SUBORDINATED CREDITOR’S WAIVERS AND COVENANTS

(a) Without limiting the generality of any other waiver made by Subordinated Creditor in this Agreement, Subordinated Creditor hereby expressly waives (i) reliance by Senior Creditor upon the subordination and other agreements herein provided, and (ii) any claim that Subordinated Creditor may now or hereafter have against Senior Creditor arising out of any and all actions that Senior Creditor, in good faith, takes or omits to take (A) with respect to the creation, perfection or continuation of liens in or on any collateral security for the Senior Debt, (B) with respect to the foreclosure upon, sale, release, or depreciation of, or failure to realize upon, any of the collateral security for the Senior Debt, (C) with respect to the collection of any claim for all or any part of the Senior Debt from any account debtor, guarantor or any other third party and (D) with respect to the valuation, use, protection or release of any collateral security for the Senior Debt.

or enforceability of Senior Creditor’s security interest in the Collateral, or the validity, priority or enforceability of the Senior Debt; and (iv) Subordinated Creditor shall give Senior Agent prompt written notice of the occurrence of any default or event of default under the Subordinated Guaranty Documents, and shall, simultaneously with giving any notice of default to AR Borrower, provide Senior Agent with a copy of any notice of default given to AR Borrower. Subordinated Creditor acknowledges and agrees that any default or event of default under the Subordinated Guaranty Documents shall be deemed to be a default and an event of default under the Senior Loan Documents.

14. REINSTATEMENT OF SENIOR DEBT

To the extent that Senior Creditor receives payments on or proceeds of any collateral security for the Senior Debt, which payments or proceeds are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law, or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payments or proceeds invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid, the Senior Debt, or part thereof, intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue in full force and effect as if such payments or proceeds had not been received by Senior Creditor.

15. NO WAIVERS

Senior Creditor shall not be prejudiced in its rights under this Agreement by any act or failure to act of AR Borrower or Subordinated Creditor or any noncompliance of AR Borrower or Subordinated Creditor with any agreement or obligation, regardless of any knowledge thereof which Senior Creditor may have, or with which Senior Creditor may be charged; no action permitted hereunder that has been taken by Senior Creditor shall in any way affect or impair the rights or remedies of Senior Creditor in the exercise of any other right or remedy or shall operate as a waiver thereof; no single or partial exercise by Senior Creditor of any right or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof; and no modification or waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon Senior Creditor, in each case except as expressly set forth in a writing duly signed and delivered by Senior Creditor.

16. INFORMATION CONCERNING AR BORROWER; CREDIT ADMINISTRATION

(a)

Subordinated Creditor hereby assumes responsibility for keeping itself informed of the financial condition of AR Borrower, any and all endorsers and any and all guarantors of the Senior Debt and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Senior Debt or the Subordinated Obligations that diligent inquiry would reveal, and Subordinated Creditor hereby agrees that Senior Creditor shall not have any duty to advise Subordinated Creditor of information known to Senior Creditor regarding such condition.

(b)

Subject to Sections 2(b), 7 and 8, Subordinated Creditor may (i) administer and manage its credit and other relationships with AR Borrower in its own best interest, and (ii) amend or extend its agreements with AR Borrower or enter into additional agreements with AR Borrower, all without the consent of Senior Creditor; provided that (i) Subordinated Creditor provide notice to Senior Creditor of any amendments to the Subordinated Guaranty Documents, (ii) the Subordinated Guaranty Documents shall not be amended in a manner adverse to the Senior Creditor and (iii) neither this Section 16(b) nor any amendments or additional agreements referred to therein shall impair or affect the subordination of Subordinated Obligations or change the definition of Subordinated Obligations, Subordinated Creditor, Senior Debt or Senior Creditor.
