The provisions of this Agreement are intended solely to govern the respective Lien priorities as between the Senior Lenders and the Second Priority Secured Parties and shall not impose on the First Lien Agents, the Second Priority Agents, the Second Priority Secured Parties or the Senior Lenders or any agent or trustee therefor any obligations in respect of the disposition of proceeds of any Common Collateral which would conflict with prior perfected claims therein in favor of any other Person or any order or decree of any court or governmental authority or any applicable law.

2.6. Waiver of Marshalling. Until the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims, each Second Priority Agent, on behalf of itself and the applicable Second Priority Secured Parties, agrees not to assert and hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any right to demand, request, plead or otherwise assert or otherwise claim the benefit of, any marshalling, appraisal, valuation or other similar right that may otherwise be available under applicable law with respect to the Common Collateral or any other similar rights a junior secured creditor may have under applicable law.

SECTION 3. Enforcement.

3.1. Exercise of Remedies.

(a) So long as the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has not occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against the Borrower or any other Grantor, (i) no Second Priority Agent or any Second Priority Secured Party will (x) exercise or seek to exercise any rights or remedies (including setoff or recoupment) with respect to any Common Collateral or any other security in respect of any applicable Second Priority Claims, or exercise any right under any lockbox agreement, control agreement, landlord waiver or bailee’s letter or similar agreement or arrangement, or institute any action or proceeding with respect to such rights or remedies (including any action of enforcement, collection, execution, levy or foreclosure), (y) contest, protest or object to any foreclosure, power of sale or other similar proceeding or action brought with respect to the Common Collateral or any other collateral by any First Lien Agent or any Senior Lender in respect of the Senior Lender Claims, the exercise of any right by any First Lien Agent or any Senior Lender (or any agent or sub-agent on their behalf) in respect of the Senior Lender Claims under any lockbox agreement, control agreement, landlord waiver or bailee’s letter or similar agreement or arrangement to which any Second Priority Agent or any Second Priority 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 collateral under the Senior Lender Documents or otherwise in respect of Senior Lender Claims, provided that the respective interests of the Second Priority Secured Parties attach to the proceeds thereof, subject to the relative priorities described in this Agreement, or (z) object to the forbearance by the Senior Lenders from bringing or pursuing any foreclosure, power of sale or other similar proceeding or action or any other exercise of any rights or remedies relating to the Common Collateral or any other collateral in respect of Senior Lender Claims and (ii) except as otherwise provided herein (including Section 5.1), each First Lien Agent and the Senior Lenders shall have the exclusive

-13-

right to enforce rights, exercise remedies (including setoff, recoupment and the right to credit bid their debt) and make determinations regarding the release, disposition or restrictions with respect to the Common Collateral without any consultation with, or the consent, of any Second Priority Agent or any Second Priority Secured Party; provided, however, that (A) in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding commenced by or against the Borrower or any other Grantor, each Second Priority Agent may file a proof of claim or statement of interest with respect to the applicable Second Priority Claims, (B) each Second Priority Agent may take any action (not adverse to the prior Liens on the Common Collateral securing the Senior Lender Claims, or the rights of either First Lien Agent or the Senior Lenders to exercise remedies in respect thereof) in order to create, prove, perfect, preserve or protect (but not enforce) its rights in, and perfection and priority of its Lien on, the Common Collateral (including, without limitation, sending such notices of the existence of, or any evidence or confirmation of, the Second Priority Claims or the Liens of the Second Priority Agents in the Common Collateral to any court or governmental agency, or filing or recording any such notice or evidence to the extent necessary or appropriate to prove or preserve the Liens of the Second Priority Agents in the Common Collateral), (C) in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding commenced by or against any Borrower or any other Grantor, each Second Priority Agent may file any necessary or appropriate responsive pleadings in opposition to any motion, adversary proceeding or other pleading filed by any Person objecting to or otherwise seeking disallowance of the claim or Lien of such Second Priority Agent or Second Priority Secured Party, (D) subject to Section 5.4, each Second Priority Agent may file any pleadings, objections, motions, or agreements which assert rights available to unsecured creditors of any Borrower or any other Grantor arising under any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or applicable non-bankruptcy law to the extent not otherwise inconsistent with, or in violation of, the other provisions of this Agreement and (E) subject to Section 6.9, each Second Priority Agent (pursuant to the instructions of the requisite amount of Second Priority Secured Parties) and each Second Priority Secured Party may vote on any Plan of Reorganization in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of any Borrower or any other Grantor, in each case (A) through (E) above to the extent such action is not inconsistent with, or could not result in a resolution inconsistent with, the terms of this Agreement. In exercising rights and remedies with respect to the Senior Lender Collateral, each First Lien Agent and the Senior Lenders may enforce the provisions of the Senior Lender Documents and exercise remedies thereunder, all in such order and in such manner as they may determine in the exercise of their sole discretion. Such exercise and enforcement shall include the rights of an agent appointed by them to sell or otherwise dispose of Common Collateral or other collateral upon foreclosure, power of sale or other enforcement action, to incur expenses in connection with such sale or disposition, and to exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured lender under the Uniform Commercial Code of any applicable jurisdiction and of a secured creditor under Bankruptcy Laws of any applicable jurisdiction.

(b) So long as the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has not occurred, each Second Priority Agent, on behalf of itself and each applicable Second Priority Secured Party, 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 applicable Second Priority Claims. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, unless and until the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has occurred, except as expressly provided in the proviso in clause (ii) of Section 3.1(a), the sole right of the Second Priority Agents and the

-14-

Second Priority Secured Parties with respect to the Common Collateral or any other collateral is to hold a Lien on the Common Collateral or such other collateral in respect of the applicable Second Priority Claims pursuant to the Second Priority 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 Senior Lender Claims has occurred.

(c) So long as the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has not occurred and subject to the proviso in clause (ii) of Section 3.1(a) above, (i) each Second Priority Agent, for itself and on behalf of each applicable Second Priority Secured Party, agrees that no Second Priority Agent or any Second Priority Secured Party will take any action that would hinder or delay any exercise of remedies undertaken by any First Lien Agent or Senior Lenders with respect to the Common Collateral or any other collateral under the Senior Lender Documents, including any sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of the Common Collateral or such other collateral, whether by foreclosure, power of sale or otherwise, and (ii) each Second Priority Agent, for itself and on behalf of each applicable Second Priority Secured Party, hereby waives any and all rights it or any Second Priority Secured Party may have as a junior lien creditor or otherwise to object to the manner in which any First Lien Agent or Senior Lenders seek to enforce or collect the Senior Lender Claims or the Liens granted in any of the Senior Lender Collateral, regardless of whether any action or failure to act by or on behalf of any First Lien Agent or Senior Lenders is adverse to the interests of the Second Priority Secured Parties.

(d) Each Second Priority Agent hereby acknowledges and agrees that no covenant, agreement or restriction contained in any applicable Second Priority Document shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights and remedies of any First Lien Agent or Senior Lenders with respect to the Senior Lender Collateral as set forth in this Agreement and the Senior Lender Documents; provided that nothing in this clause shall prevent any Second Priority Secured Party from asserting or seeking to enforce any provision of any Second Priority Document (to the extent not prohibited by this Agreement).

3.2. Cooperation. Subject to the proviso in clause (ii) of Section 3.1(a), each Second Priority Agent, on behalf of itself and each applicable Second Priority Secured Party, agrees that, unless and until the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has occurred, it will not commence, or join with any Person (other than the Senior Lenders and any First Lien Agent 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 Priority Documents or otherwise in respect of the applicable Second Priority Claims relating to the Common Collateral.

SECTION 4. Payments.

4.1. Application of Proceeds. So long as the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has not occurred, the Common Collateral and any other collateral in respect of the Second Priority Claims or proceeds thereof received in connection with the sale or other disposition of, or collection on, such Common Collateral or other collateral upon the exercise of remedies as a secured party, shall be applied by the First Lien Agents to the Senior Lender Claims in such order as specified in the relevant Senior Lender Documents until the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has occurred. Upon the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims, subject to

-15-

Section 5.7 and Section 6.4 hereof, each of the First Lien Agents shall deliver promptly to the Second Priority Designated Agent 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 Priority Designated Agent in such order as specified in the Second Priority Documents.

4.2. Payments Over. Any Common Collateral or other collateral in respect of the Second Priority Claims or proceeds thereof received by any Second Priority Agent or any Second Priority 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 Senior Lender Claims or (except as otherwise set forth in Section 6) in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, shall be segregated and held in trust for the benefit of and forthwith paid over to the First Priority Designated Agent (and/or its designees) for the benefit of the Senior Lenders in the same form as received, with any necessary endorsements or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. The First Lien Agents are each hereby individually authorized to make any such endorsements as agent for any Second Priority Agent or any such Second Priority Secured Party. This authorization is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.

SECTION 5. Other Agreements.

5.1. Releases.

(a) Subject to Section 5.7, if, at any time any Grantor or the holder of any Senior Lender Claim delivers notice to each Second Priority Agent that any specified Common Collateral (including all or substantially all of the equity interests of a Grantor or any of its Subsidiaries) (including for such purpose, in the case of the sale of equity interests in any Subsidiary, any Common Collateral held by such Subsidiary or any direct or indirect Subsidiary thereof) is:

(A) sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of:

(i) by the owner of such Common Collateral in a transaction permitted under the Credit Agreement, the Other First Priority Lien Obligations Credit Documents, the Second Priority Senior Secured Notes Indenture and each other Senior Lender Document and Second Priority Document (if any) then in effect; or

(ii) in connection with the taking of an Enforcement Action; or

(B) being released from all Senior Lender Claims in connection with a Subsidiary being released from its guarantee under the Credit Agreement, the Other First Priority Lien Obligations Credit Documents, the Second Priority Senior Secured Notes Indenture and each other Senior Lender Document and Second Priority Document (if any) then in effect, or

(C) otherwise released as permitted by the Credit Agreement, the Other First Priority Lien Obligations Credit Documents, the Second Priority Senior Secured Notes Indenture and each other Senior Lender Document and Second Priority Document (if any) then in effect,

-16-

then (whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding is pending at the time) the Liens in favor of the Second Priority Secured Parties upon such Common Collateral will automatically, simultaneously, and unconditionally be released and discharged as and when, but only to the extent, such Liens on such Common Collateral securing Senior Lender Claims are released and discharged; provided that the Liens securing the Second Priority Claims shall attach to any proceeds of such Common Collateral that remain after the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims. Upon delivery to each Second Priority Agent of a notice from any First Lien Agent stating that any release of Liens securing or supporting the Senior Lender Claims has become effective (or shall become effective upon each Second Priority Agent’s release) (whether in connection with a sale of such assets by the relevant Grantor pursuant to the preceding sentence or otherwise), each Second Priority Agent, on behalf of each applicable Second Priority Secured Party, will promptly, at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver such instruments, releases, termination statements or other documents confirming such release on customary terms.

(b) So long as the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has not occurred, each Second Priority Agent, for itself and on behalf of each applicable Second Priority Secured Party, hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the First Priority Designated Agent and any officer or agent of such First Priority Designated 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 each Second Priority Agent or such holder or in such First Priority Designated Agent’s own name, from time to time in such First Priority Designated 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 Senior Lender Claims has occurred, each Second Priority Agent, for itself and on behalf of each applicable Second Priority Secured Party, hereby consents to the application, whether prior to or after a default, of proceeds of Common Collateral or other collateral to the repayment of Senior Lender Claims pursuant to the Senior Lender Documents and this Agreement; provided that nothing in this Section 5.1(c) shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of the Second Priority Agents or the Second Priority Secured Parties to receive proceeds in connection with the Second Priority Claims not otherwise in contravention of this Agreement.

5.2. Insurance. Unless and until the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has occurred, each First Lien Agent and the Senior Lenders shall have the sole and exclusive right, subject to the rights of the Grantors under the Senior Lender Documents, to adjust settlement for any insurance policy covering the Common Collateral or any other collateral in respect of the Second Priority Claims in the event of any loss thereunder and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding affecting the Common Collateral or such other collateral. Unless and until the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has occurred, all proceeds of any such policy and any such award if in respect of the Common Collateral or such other collateral shall be paid (a) first, prior to the occurrence of the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims, to the First Lien Agents for the benefit of Senior Lenders pursuant to the terms of the Senior Lender Documents, (b) second, after the occurrence of the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims, to the Second Priority Agents for the benefit of the Second Priority Secured Parties

-17-

pursuant to the terms of the applicable Second Priority Documents and (c) third, if no Second Priority Claims or Senior Lender Claims 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 any Second Priority Agent or any Second Priority 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 Priority Designated Agent in accordance with the terms of Section 4.2.

5.3. Amendments to Second Priority Collateral Documents.

(a) So long as the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has not occurred, without the prior written consent of the First Lien Agents, no Second Priority Collateral Document may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified or entered into to the extent such amendment, supplement or modification, or the terms of any new Second Priority Collateral Document, would be prohibited by or inconsistent with any of the terms of this Agreement. The Grantors shall cause each applicable Second Priority Collateral Document executed as of the date hereof or hereafter to include the following language (or language to similar effect approved by the First Lien Agents):

“Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) the liens and security interests granted to the [applicable Second Priority Agent for the benefit of the [Secured Parties]] pursuant to this agreement are expressly subject and subordinate to the liens and security interests granted to Citizens Bank, N.A. as administrative agent (and its permitted successors), for the benefit of the secured parties referred to below, pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Pledge and Security Agreement, dated [________], 2024 (as further amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time), from the Borrower and the other “Grantors” referred to therein, in favor of Citizens Bank, N.A., as administrative agent for the benefit of the secured parties referred to therein [and to the liens and security interests granted to [Other First Priority Lien Obligations Agent] pursuant to [Other First Priority Lien Obligations Security Document (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time)]], and (ii) the exercise of any right or remedy by the [applicable Second Priority Agent] hereunder is subject to the limitations and provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement dated as of [__________], 2024 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Intercreditor Agreement”), by and among Citizens Bank, N.A., in its capacity as First Lien Agent and Truist Bank, as Trustee and Second Priority Collateral Agent. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and the terms of this agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern.”

(b) In the event that the First Lien Agents or the Senior Lenders enter into any amendment, waiver or consent in respect of or replace any Senior Collateral Document for the purpose of adding to, or deleting from, or waiving or consenting to any departures from any provisions of, any Senior Collateral Document or changing in any manner the rights of the First Lien Agents, the Senior Lenders, the Borrower or any other Grantor thereunder (including the release of any Liens in Senior Lender Collateral in accordance with Section 5.1), then such amendment, waiver or consent shall apply automatically to any comparable provision of each Comparable Second Priority Collateral Document without the consent of any Second Priority Agent or any Second Priority Secured Party and without any action by any Second Priority

-18-

Agent or any Second Priority Secured Party; provided, that such amendment, waiver or consent (i) does not materially adversely affect the rights of the Second Priority Secured Parties or the interests of the Second Priority Secured Parties in the Second Priority Collateral and not the other creditors of the Borrower or such Grantor, as the case may be, that have a security interest in the affected collateral in a like or similar manner (without regard to the fact that the Lien of such Senior Collateral Document is senior to the Lien of the Comparable Second Priority Collateral Document), (ii) does not provide for the release of the Liens on Collateral securing Second Priority Claims, unless such release is permitted by Section 5.1 and (iii) does not adversely affect the rights and obligations of the Second Lien Agent in its capacity as such. The relevant First Lien Agent shall give written notice of such amendment, waiver or consent to each Second Priority Agent; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the effectiveness of such amendment, waiver or consent with respect to the provisions of any Second Priority Collateral Document as set forth in this Section 5.3(b).

(c) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, until the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has occurred, the Grantors agree that no Second Priority Collateral Document shall be entered into unless the collateral covered thereby is also subject to a perfected first-priority interest in favor of the First Lien Agents for the benefit of the Senior Lenders pursuant to the Senior Collateral Documents.

5.4. Rights As Unsecured Creditors. The Second Priority Agents and the Second Priority Secured Parties may exercise rights and remedies as an unsecured creditor against any Borrower or any Grantor in accordance with the terms of the applicable Second Priority Documents and applicable law, in each case to the extent not inconsistent with or in violation of the other provisions of this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by any Second Priority Agent or any Second Priority 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 in contravention of this Agreement by any Second Priority Agent or any Second Priority Secured Party of rights or remedies in respect of Common Collateral or other collateral or (b) enforcement in contravention of this Agreement of any Lien in respect of Second Priority Claims held by any of them. In the event any Second Priority Agent or any Second Priority Secured Party becomes a judgment lien creditor or other secured creditor in respect of Common Collateral or other collateral as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor in respect of Second Priority Claims or otherwise, such judgment or other lien shall be subordinated to the Liens securing Senior Lender Claims on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Second Priority Claims are so subordinated to such Liens securing Senior Lender Claims under this Agreement and shall otherwise be subject to the terms of this Agreement for all purposes to the same extent as all other Liens securing the Second Priority Claims subject hereto. Nothing in this Agreement impairs or otherwise adversely affects any rights or remedies the First Lien Agents or the Senior Lenders may have with respect to the Senior Lender Collateral.

5.5. First Lien Agents as Gratuitous Bailees for Perfection.

(a) Each 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 for the benefit of and on behalf of each Second Priority Agent and any assignee solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted in such Pledged Collateral pursuant to the Second Priority Collateral Agreements, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.5 (such bailment being intended, among other things, to satisfy the requirements of Sections 8-106(d)(3), 8-301(a)(2) and 9-313(c) of the UCC.

-19-

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

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

(d) The First Lien Agents shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Second Priority Agent or any Second Priority Secured Party to assure that the Pledged Collateral is genuine or owned by the Grantors 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 Agents under this Section 5.5 shall be limited solely to holding the Pledged Collateral as gratuitous bailee for each Second Priority Agent for purposes of perfecting the Lien held by the Second Priority Secured Parties.

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

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

(g) Neither the First Lien Agents nor the Senior Lenders shall be required to marshal any present or future collateral security for the Borrower’s or the Subsidiaries’ obligations to the First Lien Agents or the Senior Lenders under the Credit Agreement or the Senior Collateral 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.

-20-

5.6. Second Priority Designated Agent as Gratuitous Bailee for Perfection.

(a) Upon the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims, the Second Priority Designated Agent agrees to hold the Pledged Collateral that is part of the Common Collateral in its possession or control (or in the possession or control of its agents or bailees) as gratuitous bailee for the benefit of and on behalf of the other Second Priority Agents and any assignee solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted in such Pledged Collateral pursuant to the applicable Second Priority Collateral Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.6.

(b) In the event that the Second Priority Designated Agent (or its agent or bailees) has Lien filings against Intellectual Property (as defined in the Senior Collateral Agreement, whether or not then in effect) that is part of the Common Collateral that are necessary for the perfection of Liens in such Common Collateral, upon the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims, the Second Priority Designated Agent agrees to hold such Liens as gratuitous bailee for the other Second Priority Agents and any assignee solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted in such Liens pursuant to the applicable Second Priority Collateral Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.6.

(c) The Second Priority Designated Agent, in its capacity as gratuitous bailee, shall have no obligation whatsoever to the other Second Priority Agents to assure that the Pledged Collateral is genuine or owned by the Grantors 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 5.6. The duties or responsibilities of the Second Priority Designated Agent under this Section 5.6 upon the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims shall be limited solely to holding the Pledged Collateral as gratuitous bailee for the other Second Priority Agents for purposes of perfecting the Lien held by the applicable Second Priority Secured Parties.

(d) The Second Priority Designated Agent shall not have by reason of the Second Priority Collateral Documents or this Agreement or any other document a fiduciary relationship in respect of the other Second Priority Agents (or the Second Priority Secured Parties for which such other Second Priority Agents are agents) and the other Second Priority Agents hereby waive and release the Second Priority Designated Agent from all claims and liabilities arising pursuant to the Second Priority Designated Agent’s role under this Section 5.6, as agent and gratuitous bailee with respect to the Common Collateral.

(e) In the event that the Second Priority Designated Agent shall cease to be so designated the Second Priority Designated Agent pursuant to the definition of such term, the then Second Priority Designated Agent shall deliver to the successor Second Priority Designated Agent, to the extent that it is legally permitted to do so, the remaining Pledged Collateral (if any), together with any necessary endorsements (or otherwise allow the successor Second Priority Designated Agent to obtain control of such Pledged Collateral) or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct, and such successor Second Priority Designated Agent shall perform all duties of the Second Priority Designated Agent as set forth herein.

-21-

5.7. No Release Upon Discharge of Senior Lender Claims; Reinstatement.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provisions contained in this Agreement, on the date of Discharge of Senior Lender Claims, the Second Priority Liens on the Second Priority Collateral securing the Second Priority Claims will not be released except to the extent such Second Priority Collateral or any portion thereof was disposed of in compliance with the terms of this Agreement in order to repay Senior Lender Claims secured by such Second Priority Collateral.

(b) If, at any time substantially contemporaneously with or after the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has occurred, the Borrower incurs and designates any new Senior Lender Claims as being in respect of a Replacement Credit Agreement, then such Discharge of Senior Lender Claims 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 designation as a result of the occurrence of such first Discharge of Senior Lender Claims), and the applicable Replacement Credit Agreement governing such Senior Lender Claims shall automatically be treated as the Credit Agreement for all purposes of this Agreement, including for purposes of the Lien priorities and rights in respect of Common Collateral set forth herein and the granting by the First Lien Agents of amendments, waivers and consents hereunder. Upon receipt by each Second Priority Agent of notice of such designation (including the identity of any new First Lien Agent) from the Borrower and the First Lien Agent in respect of such Replacement Credit Agreement, each Second Priority Agent shall promptly (i) enter into such documents and agreements, including amendments or supplements to this Agreement, as such new First Lien Agent shall reasonably request in writing in order to provide the new First Lien Agent the rights of the First Lien Agents contemplated hereby and (ii) to the extent then held by any Second Priority Agent, deliver to such First Lien Agent the Pledged Collateral that is Common Collateral together with any necessary endorsements (or otherwise allow such First Lien Agent to obtain possession or control of such Pledged Collateral).

SECTION 6. Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings.

6.1. Financing and Sale Issues. If the Borrower or any other Grantor shall be subject to any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and any First Lien Agent shall desire to permit the use of cash collateral or to permit the Borrower or any other Grantor to obtain financing under Section 363 or Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision in any other Bankruptcy Law (“DIP Financing”), then each Second Priority Agent, on behalf of itself and each applicable Second Priority Secured Party, agrees that until the Discharge of the Senior Lender Claims has occurred, it will raise no objection to, and will not support any objection to, and will not otherwise contest such use of cash collateral or 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, to the extent the Liens securing the Senior Lender Claims under the Senior Lender Documents are subordinated to or pari passu with the Liens securing such DIP Financing, will subordinate its Liens in the Common Collateral and any other collateral to (x) the Liens securing such DIP Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto), (y) any adequate protection Liens provided to such First Lien Agent or the Senior Lenders or (z) any “carve-out” or court ordered priority for fees agreed to by such First Lien Agent or the Senior Lenders, in each case on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Second Priority Claims are so subordinated to Liens securing the Senior Lender Claims under this Agreement. Each Second

-22-

Priority Agent, on behalf of itself and each applicable Second Priority Secured Party, further agrees that until the Discharge of the Senior Lender Claims has occurred, it will raise no objection to, and will not support any objection to, and will not otherwise contest (a) any motion for relief from the automatic stay or from any injunction against foreclosure or enforcement in respect of Senior Lender Claims made by any First Lien Agent or any holder of Senior Lender Claims, (b) any lawful exercise by any holder of Senior Lender Claims of the right to credit bid Senior Lender Claims at any sale of Senior Lender Collateral (including pursuant to Section 363(k) or Section 1129(b)(2)(A)(ii) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar Bankruptcy Law), (c) any other request for judicial relief made in any court by any holder of Senior Lender Claims relating to the lawful enforcement of any Lien on Senior Lender Collateral, or (d) any order relating to a sale of assets of any Grantor for which any First Lien Agent has consented that provides, to the extent the sale is to be free and clear of Liens, that the Liens securing the Senior Lender Claims and the Second Priority Claims will attach to the proceeds of the sale on the same basis of priority as the Liens securing the Senior Lender Collateral do to the Liens securing the Second Priority Collateral in accordance with this Agreement, provided, however, that the Second Priority 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) or Section 1129(b)(2)(A)(ii) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar Bankruptcy Law, so long as any such credit bid provides for the payment in full in cash of the Senior Lender Claims, provided further, however, that the Trustee and the holders of Second Priority Claims may raise any objection to the bidding and related procedures proposed to be utilized in connection with such sale or disposition that may be raised by an unsecured creditor of the Borrower or any other Grantor.

6.2. Relief from the Automatic Stay. Until the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has occurred, each Second Priority Agent, on behalf of itself and each applicable Second Priority Secured Party, agrees that none of them shall seek relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Common Collateral, without the prior written consent of all First Lien Agents and Required Lenders.

6.3. Adequate Protection. Each Second Priority Agent, on behalf of itself and each applicable Second Priority Secured Party, agrees that none of them shall contest (or support any other Person contesting) (a) any request by any First Lien Agent or Senior Lenders for adequate protection, (b) any objection by any First Lien Agent or Senior Lenders to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on such First Lien Agent’s or the Senior Lenders’ claiming a lack of adequate protection or (c) the payment of interest, fees, expenses or other amounts to the First Lien Agent or any other Senior Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, (i) if the Senior Lenders (or any subset thereof) are granted adequate protection in the form of a Lien on additional or replacement collateral and/or superpriority claims in connection with any DIP Financing or use of cash collateral under Section 363 or Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar Bankruptcy Law, then each Second Priority Agent, on behalf of itself and any applicable Second Priority Secured Party, (A) may seek or request adequate protection in the form of (x) a Lien on such additional or replacement collateral, which Lien is subordinated to the Liens securing and providing adequate protection for the Senior Lender Claims and such DIP Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto) on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Second Priority Claims are so subordinated to the Liens securing Senior Lender Claims under this Agreement, and (y) superpriority claims junior in all respects to the superpriority claims granted to the Senior Lenders, and (B) agrees that it will not

seek or request, and will not accept, without the express written consent of the First Lien Agent, adequate protection in any other form, and (ii) (A) in the event any Second Priority Agent, on behalf of itself or any applicable Second Priority Secured Party, seeks or requests adequate protection and such adequate protection is granted in the form of a Lien on additional or replacement collateral, then such Second Priority Agent, on behalf of itself or each such Second Priority Secured Party, agrees that the First Lien Agents shall also be granted a senior Lien on such additional or replacement collateral as security and adequate protection for the applicable Senior Lender Claims and any such DIP Financing and that any Lien on such additional or replacement collateral securing or providing adequate protection for the Second Priority Claims shall be subordinated to the Liens on such collateral securing the Senior Lender Claims and any such DIP Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto) and any other Liens granted to the Senior Lenders as adequate protection on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Second Priority Claims are so subordinated to such Liens securing the Senior Lender Claims under this Agreement, and (B) in the event any Second Priority Agent, on behalf of itself or any applicable Second Priority Secured Party, seeks or requests adequate protection and such adequate protection is granted in the form of a superpriority claim, then such Second Priority Agent, on behalf of itself or each such Second Priority Secured Party, agrees that the First Lien Agents shall also be granted a superpriority claim, which superpriority claim will be senior in all respects to the superpriority claim granted to such Second Priority Agent and the Second Priority Secured Parties; provided, however, that the Second Priority Agent shall have irrevocably agreed, pursuant to Section 1129(a)(9) of the Bankruptcy Code, on behalf of itself and the Second Priority Secured Parties, in any stipulation and/or order granting such adequate protection, that such junior superpriority claims may be paid under any plan of reorganization in any combination of cash, debt, equity or other property having a value on the effective date of such plan equal to the allowed amount of such claims. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Senior Lenders are deemed by a court of competent jurisdiction in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding to be entitled to receive adequate protection in the form of payments in the amount of current post-petition interest, incurred fees and expenses or other cash payments, then the Second Priority Agent and the Second Priority Secured Parties shall not be prohibited from seeking or receiving adequate protection in the form of payments in the amount of current post-petition interest, incurred fees and expenses or other cash payments.

6.4. Avoidance Issues. If any Senior Lender is required in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise to turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of the Borrower or any other Grantor (or any trustee, receiver or similar person therefor), because the payment of such amount was declared to be or avoided as 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, recoupment, or otherwise, then as among the parties hereto the Senior Lender Claims 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 Senior Lenders shall be entitled to a Discharge of Senior Lender Claims with respect to all such recovered amounts 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. Any Common Collateral or proceeds thereof received by any Second Priority Secured Party prior to the time of such Recovery shall be deemed to have been received prior to the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims and subject to the provisions of Section 4.2.

-24-

6.5. Application. This Agreement shall be applicable prior to and after the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. The parties hereto agree that this Agreement constitutes a “subordination agreement” under Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision in any other Bankruptcy Law and is intended to be and shall be interpreted to be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted pursuant to the applicable non-bankruptcy law. All references herein to any Grantor 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 Grantor.

6.6. Waivers. Until the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has occurred, each Second Priority Agent, on behalf of itself and each applicable Second Priority Secured Party, (a) will not assert or enforce any claim under Section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision in any other Bankruptcy Law senior to or on a parity with the Liens securing the Senior Lender Claims 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 Senior Lender of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision in any other Bankruptcy Law.

6.7. Nature of Obligations; Post-Petition Interest. Each Second Priority Agent, on behalf of the Second Priority Secured Parties, hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) the Second Priority Secured Parties’ claims against the Grantors in respect of the Common Collateral constitute junior claims separate and apart (and of a different class) from the Senior Lender Claims of the Senior Lenders against the Grantors in respect of the Common Collateral, (ii) the Senior Lender Claims include all interest, fees, and expenses that accrue after the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of any Grantor at the rate provided for in the applicable Senior Lender Documents governing the same, whether or not a claim for post-petition interest, fees and expenses is allowed or allowable in any such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, (iii) the grants of Liens pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the Second Priority Collateral Documents constitute two separate and distinct grants of Liens, and (iv) because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Common Collateral, the Senior Lender Claims are fundamentally different from the Second Priority Claims and the Second Priority Claims are fundamentally different from the Senior Lender Claims and, in each case, must be separately classified in any Plan of Reorganization proposed or confirmed (or approved) 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 against the Grantors in respect of the Common Collateral constitute only one secured claim (rather than separate classes of senior and junior claims), then each Second Priority Agent, on behalf of the Second Priority Secured Parties, hereby acknowledges and agrees that all distributions pursuant to Section 4.1 or otherwise from the Common Collateral shall be made as if there were separate classes of senior and junior secured claims against the Grantors in respect of the Common Collateral (with the effect being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the Common Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by each Second Priority Agent on behalf of the Second Priority Secured Parties), the Senior Lenders shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them in respect of principal, pre-petition interest and other claims, all amounts owing in respect of post-petition interest at the relevant contract rate, fees

-25-

and expenses (whether or not such claims are allowed or allowable in whole or in part in the respective Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding) before any distribution from the Common Collateral is made in respect of the claims held by each Second Priority Agent, on behalf of the Second Priority Secured Parties, with each Second Priority Agent, on behalf of the Second Priority Secured Parties, hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the holders of the Senior Lender Claims all amounts otherwise received or receivable by them from the Common Collateral to the extent needed to effectuate the intent of this sentence even if such turnover of amounts has the effect of reducing the amount of the claim of the Second Priority Secured Parties). Neither any Second Priority Agent nor any Second Priority Secured Party shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by a First Lien Agent or any Senior Lender for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of Senior Lender Claims consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses to the extent of the value of the Senior Lender’s Lien, without regard to the existence of the Lien of any Second Priority Agent on behalf of the Second Priority Secured Parties on the Common Collateral or the Second Priority Claims. Neither the First Lien Agents nor any other Senior Lender shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the Second Priority Agent or any Second Priority Secured Party for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of Second Priority Claims consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses to the extent of the value of the Second Priority Agent’s Lien, after taking into account the existence of the Senior Lender’s Lien on behalf of the Senior Lenders on the Common Collateral and the Senior Lender Claims.

6.8. No Waiver. Other than as set forth in Section 6.3, nothing contained herein shall prohibit or in any way limit the First Lien Agent or any Senior Lender from objecting in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise to any action taken by any Second Priority Agent or any of the Second Priority Secured Parties, including the seeking by any Second Priority Agent or any Second Priority Secured Parties of adequate protection or the asserting by any Second Priority Agent or any Second Priority Secured Parties of any of its rights and remedies under the Second Priority Documents or otherwise.

6.9. Plan of Reorganization. Without limiting the generality of any provisions of this Agreement, each Second Priority Agent or Second Priority Secured Party shall be entitled to vote to accept any Plan of Reorganization in connection with any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of the Borrower or any other Grantor so long as such Plan of Reorganization is a Conforming Plan of Reorganization, and shall be entitled to vote to reject any such Plan of Reorganization that is a Non-Conforming Plan of Reorganization; provided that each Second Priority Agent or Second Priority Secured Party agrees that it shall not be entitled to take any action or vote in any way that supports any Non-Conforming Plan of Reorganization. Any vote to accept, and any other act to support the confirmation or approval of, any Non-Conforming Plan of Reorganization by any Second Priority Agent or Second Priority Secured Party shall be inconsistent with and accordingly, a violation of the terms of this Agreement, and the First Lien Agent shall be entitled to have any such vote to accept a Non-Conforming Plan of Reorganization dismissed and any such support of any Non-Conforming Plan of Reorganization withdrawn. Each Second Priority Secured Party hereby irrevocably appoints and constitutes the First Lien Agent and any officer or agent of the First Lien Agent, with full power of substitution, as such Second Priority Secured Party’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full power and authority in the place of such Second Priority Secured Party and in the name of such Second Priority Secured Party or in its own name, from time to time in the First Lien Agent’s discretion, to take any and all appropriate action, to execute any and all documents and instruments and to exercise all voting rights as, in the opinion of such attorney, may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Section.

-26-

6.10. 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, both on account of Senior Lender Claims and on account of Second Priority Claims, then, to the extent the debt obligations distributed on account of the Senior Lender Claims and on account of the Second Priority Claims 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.

SECTION 7. Reliance; Waivers; etc.

7.1. Reliance. The consent by the Senior Lenders to the execution and delivery of the Second Priority Documents to which the Senior Lenders have consented and all loans and other extensions of credit made or deemed made on and after the date hereof by the Senior Lenders to the Borrower or any Subsidiary shall be deemed to have been given and made in reliance upon this Agreement.

7.3. Obligations Unconditional. All rights, interests, agreements and obligations of the First Lien Agents and the Senior Lenders, and the Second Priority Agents and the Second Priority Secured Parties, respectively, hereunder shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of:

Any such amendment may, among other things, (i) add other parties holding Future Second Lien Indebtedness (or any agent or trustee therefor) to the extent such Indebtedness is not prohibited by the Credit Agreement, the Other First Priority Lien Obligations Credit Documents, the Second Priority Senior Secured Notes Indenture and all other Second Priority Documents governing Future Second Lien Indebtedness, (ii) add other parties holding Obligations arising under the Other First Priority Lien Obligations Credit Documents (or any agent or trustee thereof) to the extent such Obligations are not prohibited by the Credit Agreement, the Other First Priority Lien Obligations Credit Documents, the Second Priority Senior Secured Notes Indenture and all other Second Priority Documents governing Future Second Lien Indebtedness, (iii) in the case of Future Second Lien Indebtedness, (a) establish that the Lien on the Common Collateral securing such Future Second Lien Indebtedness shall be junior and subordinate in all respects to all Liens on the Common Collateral securing any Senior Lender Claims and shall share in the benefits of the Common Collateral equally and ratably with all Liens on the Common Collateral securing any Second Priority Claims, except to the extent otherwise agreed to by the holders of such Future Second Lien Indebtedness, and (b) provide to the holders of such Future Second Lien Indebtedness (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 Agents) as are provided to the holders of Second Priority Claims under this Agreement prior to the incurrence of such Future Second Lien Indebtedness, and (iv) in the case of Obligations arising under Other First Priority Lien Obligations Credit Documents, (a) establish that the Lien on the Common Collateral securing such Obligations shall be superior

-34-

in all respects to all Liens on the Common Collateral securing any Second Priority Claims and any Future Second Lien Indebtedness and shall share in the benefits of the Common Collateral equally and ratably with all Liens on the Common Collateral securing any other Senior Lender Claims, except to the extent otherwise agreed to by the holders of such Obligations arising under Other First Priority Lien Obligations Credit Documents, and (b) provide to the holders of such Obligations arising under the Other First Priority Lien Obligations Credit Documents (or any agent or trustee thereof) the comparable rights and benefits as are provided to the holders of Senior Lender Claims under this Agreement prior to the incurrence of such Obligations. Any such additional party, each First Lien Agent and each Second Priority Agent shall be entitled to rely on the determination of officers of the Borrower that such joinders and/or modifications do not violate the Credit Agreement, the Other First Priority Lien Obligations Credit Documents, the Second Priority Senior Secured Notes Indenture and each other Second Priority Document governing Future Second Lien Indebtedness, if such determination is set forth in an officer’s certificate delivered to such party, the First Lien Agents and each Second Priority Agent. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the First Lien Agent, the Trustee nor Second Priority Collateral Agent shall have any obligation to monitor or ensure compliance with this Section 8.22.

8.23. Intercreditor Agreements. Each party hereto agrees that the Senior Lenders (as among themselves) and the Second Priority Secured Parties (as among themselves) may each enter into intercreditor agreements (or similar arrangements, including, in the case of the Senior Lenders, the First Lien Parity Intercreditor Agreement) with the applicable First Lien Agent or Second Priority Agent governing the rights, benefits and privileges as among the Senior Lenders or the Second Priority Secured Parties, as the case may be, in respect of the Common Collateral, this Agreement and the other Senior Collateral Documents or Second Priority Collateral Documents, as the case may be, including as to application of proceeds of the Common Collateral, voting rights, control of the Common Collateral and waivers with respect to the Common Collateral, in each case so long as (A) the terms thereof do not violate or conflict with the provisions of this Agreement or the other Senior Collateral Documents or Second Priority Collateral Documents, as the case may be, (B) in the case of any such intercreditor agreement (or similar arrangement) affecting any Senior Lenders, the First Lien Agent acting on behalf of such Senior Lenders agrees in its sole discretion to enter into any such intercreditor agreement (or similar arrangement) and (C) in the case of any such intercreditor agreement (or similar arrangement) affecting the Senior Lenders holding Senior Lender Claims under the Credit Agreement, such intercreditor agreement (or similar arrangement) is permitted under the Credit Agreement or the Required Lenders otherwise authorize the applicable First Lien Agent to enter into any such intercreditor agreement (or similar arrangement). Notwithstanding the preceding clauses (B) and (C), to the extent that the applicable First Lien Agent is not authorized by the Required Lenders to enter into any such intercreditor agreement (or similar arrangement ) or does not agree to enter into such intercreditor agreement (or similar arrangement), such intercreditor agreement (or similar arrangement ) shall not be binding upon the applicable First Lien Agent but, subject to the immediately succeeding sentence, may still bind the other parties party thereto. In any event, if a respective intercreditor agreement (or similar arrangement) exists, the provisions thereof shall not be (or be construed to be) an amendment, modification or other change to this Agreement or any other Senior Collateral Document or Second Priority Collateral Document, and the provisions of this Agreement and the other Senior Collateral Documents and Second Priority Collateral Documents shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof (as such provisions may be amended, modified or otherwise supplemented from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, including to give effect to any intercreditor agreement (or similar arrangement)).

-35-

8.24. Additional Guarantors. Borrower agrees that if any Subsidiary shall become a Grantor after the date hereof, they will promptly cause such Subsidiary to execute and deliver an Acknowledgement of the Intercreditor Agreement substantially in the form attached hereto. The execution and delivery of such acknowledgement shall not require the consent of any other party hereunder.

A. Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Intercreditor Agreement.

B. As a condition to the ability of the Borrower to incur Other First Priority Lien Obligations and to secure such Other First Priority Lien Obligations with the liens and security interests created by the Other First Priority Lien Obligations Security Documents, the Other First Priority Lien Obligations Agent with respect of such Other First Priority Lien Obligations is required to become a First Lien Agent, and such Other First Priority Lien Obligations is required to become subject to and bound by the Intercreditor Agreement. Section 8.22 of the Intercreditor Agreement provides that such Other First Priority Lien Obligations Agent may become a First Lien Agent, and such Other First Priority Lien Obligations may become subject to and bound by the Intercreditor Agreement, upon the execution and delivery of an instrument in the form of this Joinder Agreement and the satisfaction of the other conditions set forth in Section 8.22 of the Intercreditor Agreement. The undersigned additional Other First Priority Lien Obligations Agent (the “New Representative”) is executing this Joinder Agreement in accordance with the requirements of the Intercreditor Agreement and the Senior Lender Documents.

Accordingly, the undersigned agree as follows:

SECTION 1. In accordance with Sections 8.3 and 8.22 of the Intercreditor Agreement, the New Representative by its signature below becomes a First Lien Agent under, and the related Other First Priority Lien Obligations becomes subject to and bound by, the Intercreditor Agreement with the same force and effect as if the New Representative had originally been named therein as a First Lien Agent and the New Representative, on its behalf and on behalf of holders of such Other First Priority Lien Obligations, hereby agrees to all the applicable terms and provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement. Each reference to a “First Lien Agent” in the Intercreditor Agreement shall be deemed to include the New Representative. The Intercreditor Agreement is hereby incorporated herein by reference.

the Other First Priority Lien Obligations Security Documents relating to such Other First Priority Lien Obligations provide that, upon the New Representative’s entry into this Joinder Agreement, holders of such Other First Priority Lien Obligations will be subject to and bound by the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement.

SECTION 3. This Joinder may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Joinder by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Joinder.

SECTION 4. Except as expressly supplemented hereby, the Intercreditor Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

SECTION 5. THIS JOINDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

SECTION 6. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Joinder should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, no party hereto shall be required to comply with such provision for so long as such provision is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, but the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and in the Intercreditor Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired. The parties hereto 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.

SECTION 7. All communications and notices hereunder shall be in writing and given as provided in Section 8.8 of the Intercreditor Agreement. All communications and notices hereunder to the New Representative shall be given to it at its address set forth below its signature hereto.
