SECTION 2. Decisions Relating to Exercise of Remedies Vested in Requisite Obligees Under the Credit Agreement, Other Permitted Credit Exposure Documents, Permitted Secured Debt Documents, Collateral Documents and Loan Guaranties.
(a) Collateral Agent agrees to make such demands and give such notices under the Loan Guaranties and the Collateral Documents as Requisite Obligees may request, and to take such action to enforce the Loan Guaranties and the Collateral Documents and to foreclose upon, collect and dispose of the Domestic Collateral or any portion thereof as may be directed by Requisite Obligees. For purposes of this Agreement, (i) “Requisite Obligees” means, for purposes of this Agreement, including directing Collateral Agent with respect to any of the foregoing actions to be taken pursuant to any of the Collateral Documents or the Loan Guaranties, Lenders holding 51% or more of the aggregate principal amount of the sum of (A) all Loans outstanding, (B) all other credit facilities utilized (including the stated amount of all Letters of Credit, the Domestic Overdraft Amount and the Offshore Overdraft Amounts and the face amount of all unmatured discounted bankers’ acceptances, if any) under the Credit Agreement and (C) all unused Commitments under the Credit Agreement, and (ii) if the Obligations (such term being used herein as defined in the Credit Agreement) have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash and the Credit Agreement and all Letters of Credit have terminated, “Requisite Obligees” shall mean Secured Parties holding 51% or more of the aggregate amount of the sum of (A) the principal amount of the Other Permitted Credit Exposure then secured by Domestic Collateral (with the “principal amount” under Hedging Agreements relating to interest rate swaps or derivatives (such agreements, “Interest Rate Agreements”), Hedging Agreements relating to currency transactions (such agreements, “Currency Agreements”) and Commodities Agreements then secured by Domestic Collateral herein deemed to be 20% of the notional amount under the applicable Interest Rate Agreements, Currency Agreements and Commodities Agreements or, if an Interest Rate Agreement, Currency Agreement or Commodities Agreement has been terminated in accordance with its terms, the amount then due and payable (exclusive of expenses and similar payments but including any early termination payments then due) under such Interest Rate Agreement, Currency Agreement or Commodities Agreement, as the case may be) and (B) in the case of the Collateral Documents only (and not the Loan Guaranties) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Permitted Secured Debt (to the extent such Permitted Secured Debt is then secured by the Domestic Collateral under the Collateral Documents), provided, that, the aggregate principal amount of any Specified New Senior Debt shall not be included in such calculation with respect to any direction to Collateral Agent solely to the extent such direction relates to any Excluded
Collateral (as defined in the relevant acknowledge hereto), until indefeasible payment in full in cash of all Other Permitted Credit Exposure secured by the Domestic Collateral and all Permitted Secured Debt secured by the Domestic Collateral under the Collateral Documents. Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action that is, in its opinion, contrary to law or to the terms of this Agreement, or any of the Collateral Documents or any of the Loan Guaranties or which would in its opinion subject it or any of its officers, employees or directors to liability, and Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action under this Agreement or any of the Collateral Documents or any of the Loan Guaranties, unless and until Collateral Agent shall be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Secured Parties against any and all losses, costs, expenses or liabilities in connection therewith.

Collateral Agent shall give prompt notice to all Secured Parties of actions taken pursuant to the instructions of Requisite Obligees; provided, however, that the failure to give any such notice shall not impair the right of Collateral Agent to take any such action or the validity or enforceability under this Agreement or the applicable Collateral Document or Loan Guaranties of the action so taken.
(c) Each Secured Party agrees that unless and until such Secured Party is entitled to give direction to Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 2(a) with respect to a Collateral Document or the Loan Guaranties, the only right of such Secured Party under the Collateral Documents and the Loan Guaranties is for Other Permitted Credit Exposure and the Permitted Secured Debt (collectively, with the Obligations under the Credit Agreement and all Loan Guaranties with respect to Other Permitted Credit Exposure, the “Senior Secured Obligations”) to be secured by the Domestic Collateral as provided in the Collateral Documents, and to receive a share of the proceeds of such Domestic Collateral or any payments under the Loan Guaranties, if any, as and when provided in the Collateral Documents and Section 3 and Section 4(a) hereof.

Except as otherwise provided in the Collateral Documents and the Loan Guaranties, directions given by Requisite Obligees to Collateral Agent hereunder shall be binding on all Secured Parties for all purposes.

In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any of the Collateral Documents, upon release of a guarantor of any Permitted Secured Debt, the Liens created under the Collateral Documents against any assets or property of that guarantor shall no longer secure such Permitted Secured Debt.
(f) Each Secured Party agrees that no Secured Party shall have any right to, and agrees that it shall not take any action whatsoever to enforce any term or provision of any Collateral Document or any Loan Guaranties or to enforce any of its rights in respect of the Domestic Collateral, it being understood that all rights and remedies under the Collateral Documents and the Loan Guaranties shall be executed exclusively by Collateral Agent in accordance with this Agreement.

(b) The holders of each issue of Permitted Secured Debt may cause such Permitted Secured Debt to be secured by the Collateral Documents by causing their Permitted Secured Debt Representative to execute an acknowledgment in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C, and by delivering such executed acknowledgment (which to be effective must be acknowledged by the Borrowers’ Agent) to Collateral Agent, by which such Permitted Secured Debt Representative agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.
SECTION 7. Disclaimers, Indemnity, Etc.
(a) Collateral Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Collateral Documents or the Loan Guaranties, and
Collateral Agent shall not by reason of this Agreement, the Collateral Documents or the Loan Guaranties be a trustee for any Secured Party or have any other fiduciary obligation to any Secured Party (including any obligation under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended). Collateral Agent shall not be responsible to any Secured Party for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties contained in this Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the Other Permitted Credit Exposure Documents or any other documents evidencing or relating to any Other Permitted Credit Exposure, the Permitted Secured Debt Documents, the Collateral Documents or the Loan Guaranties (collectively, the “Financing Agreements”) or in any certificate or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by any of them under, any of the Financing Agreements, or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of any of the Financing Agreements or any other document referred to or provided for therein or any Lien created under the Collateral Documents or the perfection or priority of any such Lien or for any failure by any Loan Party to perform any of its respective obligations under any of the Financing Agreements. Collateral Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be responsible, except as to money or securities received by it or its authorized agents, for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in- fact selected by it with reasonable care. Neither Collateral Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable or responsible for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or in connection herewith, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment).
(b) Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any certification, notice or other communication (including any thereof by telex, telecopy, telegram, cable or other electronic transmission) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to Holdings or any Subsidiary of Holdings), independent accountants and other experts selected by Collateral Agent. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement, Collateral Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder in accordance with instructions signed by Requisite Obligees, and such instructions of Requisite Obligees, and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto, shall be binding on all of the Secured Parties.
(c) The Lender Agent on behalf of the Lenders and each Other Permitted Credit Exposure Holder (collectively, the “Paying Indemnifying Parties”) agrees that the Secured Parties represented by it shall indemnify Collateral Agent, ratably in accordance with the amount of the obligations held by such Secured Parties secured by the Collateral Documents, to the extent neither reimbursed by any Grantor under the Credit Agreement or any Collateral Document nor reimbursed out of any Proceeds pursuant to Section 3 hereof and the corresponding provisions of the Collateral Documents for any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Collateral Agent in any way relating to or arising out of any of the Financing Agreements or any other documents contemplated by or referred to therein or the transactions contemplated thereby or the enforcement of any of the terms of any thereof; provided, however, that no such Secured Party shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent they arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Collateral Agent (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment). Each Permitted Secured Debt Representative, on behalf of such Permitted Secured Debt Representative and the holders of Permitted Secured Debt in respect of which such Permitted Secured Debt Representative is the representative, agrees that, as provided in Section 3 hereof, Section 12 of the Pledge Agreement and Section 18 of the Security Agreement, deductions from distributions otherwise due with respect to such Permitted Secured Debt will be made so that the holders of such Permitted Secured Debt shall share with the Paying Indemnifying Parties, ratably in accordance with the amount of Permitted Secured Debt secured by the Collateral Documents, the payment of the amounts due under the preceding sentence.
(d) Except for action expressly required of Collateral Agent hereunder, Collateral Agent shall, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 7(c) hereof, in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder unless it shall be further indemnified to its satisfaction by the Secured Parties against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.
(e) Collateral Agent may deem and treat the payee of any promissory note or other evidence of indebtedness relating to the Senior Secured Obligations as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until a written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof, signed by such payee and in form satisfactory to Collateral Agent, shall have been filed with Collateral Agent. Any request, authority or consent of any Person who at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent is the holder of any such note or other evidence of indebtedness shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, transferee or assignee of such note or other evidence of indebtedness and of any note or notes or other evidences of indebtedness issued in exchange therefor.
(f) Except as expressly provided herein and in the Collateral Documents, Collateral Agent shall have no duty to take any affirmative steps with respect to the collection of amounts payable in respect of the Domestic Collateral. Collateral Agent shall incur no liability to any Secured Party as a result of any sale of any Domestic Collateral at any private sale.
(g) (i) Until such time as the Senior Secured Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full, Collateral Agent may resign at any time by giving at least 30 days’ notice
thereof to the Secured Parties (such resignation to take effect as hereinafter provided). In the event of such resignation of Collateral Agent, Requisite Obligees shall thereupon have the right to appoint a successor Collateral Agent. If no successor Collateral Agent shall have been so appointed by Requisite Obligees and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the notice of the intent of Collateral Agent to resign, then the retiring Collateral Agent may, on behalf of the other Secured Parties, appoint a successor Collateral Agent. Any successor Collateral Agent appointed pursuant to this clause (i) (A) shall be commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or any state thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000 and (B) unless an Event of Default or condition or event which, after notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default if that condition or event were not cured or removed within any applicable grace or cure period (a “Potential Event of Default”) shall have occurred and be continuing, shall be approved by Company.
(ii) Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Collateral Agent hereunder by a successor Collateral Agent, such successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent, and the retiring Collateral Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After any retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder as Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Section 7 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Collateral Agent.
(iii) In no event shall Collateral Agent or any Secured Party be liable or responsible for any funds or investments of funds held by any Grantor or any affiliates thereof.
SECTION 8. Miscellaneous.
(a) All notices and other communications provided for herein shall be in writing (including by telecopy or electronic PDF) and may be personally served, telecopied or sent by United States mail and shall be deemed to have been given when delivered in person, upon receipt of telecopy or other electronic transmission on four Business Days after deposit in the United States mail, registered or certified, with postage prepaid and properly addressed. For the purposes hereof, the addresses of the parties hereto (until notice of a change thereof is delivered as provided in this Section 8(a)) shall be as set forth under each party’s name on the signature pages (including acknowledgments) hereof.
(b) This Agreement may be modified or waived only by an instrument or instruments in writing signed by Collateral Agent and the Lender Agent with the written consent of Requisite Obligees, except that any modification or waiver adversely affecting a Secured Party’s rights under Sections 3 or 4 hereof shall require the written consent of such Secured Party;
provided, however that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the written consent of the Secured Parties shall not be required with respect to amendments, modifications or waivers necessary to permit the incurrence of additional Indebtedness secured by the Domestic Collateral and entitled to the benefits of the Pledge Agreement and/or the Security Agreement insofar as the foregoing is not prohibited by the Financing Agreements benefiting such Secured Party, including for the purposes of providing any successor or replacement credit agreement or bank facility with substantially the same or similar benefits, rights and priorities hereunder as the Credit Agreement, and including without limitation any amendments, modifications or waivers for the purpose of adding appropriate references to additional parties in, and according such parties the benefits of, any of the provisions hereof in connection with the incurrence of such Indebtedness.
(c) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Collateral Agent, each Secured Party and their respective successors and assigns.
(d) This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (including by telecopy or electronic PDF), all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument, and any of the parties hereto may execute this Agreement by signing any such counterpart.
(e) This amendment and restatement of the Third Amended and Restated Intercreditor Agreement shall become effective as to the Lenders, the Lender Agent and Collateral Agent upon the execution of this Agreement by the Lender Agent and Collateral Agent and the delivery of each such Person’s counterparts to Collateral Agent. Under Section 9(b) of the Third Amended and Restated Intercreditor Agreement, the Third Amended and Restated Intercreditor Agreement may be amended as set forth herein with the consent of Requisite Obligees without the consent of any of the other Secured Parties, and accordingly, upon such execution by Lender Agent and Collateral Agent, this Agreement shall become effective as to each holder of Other Permitted Credit Exposure listed on Exhibit B attached hereto (each of which has heretofore executed and delivered to Collateral Agent an acknowledgment to one or more Predecessor Intercreditor Agreements that was acknowledged by Borrowers’ Agent). This Agreement shall become effective as to each future Other Permitted Credit Exposure Holder and each future Permitted Secured Debt Representative, respectively, upon the execution of an acknowledgment by any such Person or its representative as contemplated by Section 6 and delivery of such executed acknowledgment (which to be effective shall also be acknowledged by the Borrowers’ Agent) to Collateral Agent.
(f) Collateral Agent or an Affiliate thereof shall at all times be the same Person that is Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement (for so long as the Credit Agreement exists). Written notice of resignation by Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection 11.6 of the
Credit Agreement shall also constitute notice of resignation as Collateral Agent under this Agreement and each of the Collateral Documents; and appointment of a successor Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection 11.6 of the Credit Agreement shall also constitute appointment of a successor Collateral Agent under this Agreement and each of the Collateral Documents unless Administrative Agent designates an Affiliate for such role, in which case, such appointment of Administrative Agent shall constitute appointment of such Affiliate as Collateral Agent. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent under subsection 11.6 of the Credit Agreement by a successor Administrative Agent, that successor Administrative Agent or its designated Affiliate shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent under this Agreement, and the retiring Collateral Agent under this Agreement shall promptly (i) transfer to such successor Collateral Agent all sums, securities and other items of Collateral held hereunder or under the Collateral Documents, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the Collateral Documents, and (ii) execute and deliver to such successor Collateral Agent such amendments to financing statements, and take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor Collateral Agent of the security interests created under the Collateral Documents, whereupon such retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and each of the Collateral Documents. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement while it was Collateral Agent hereunder.
(g) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL AND ANY CLAIMS, CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT) BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
(h) Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, each party to this Agreement shall no longer be a party from and after such time as all of the obligations owing such party (including, without limitation, any asserted indemnification obligations) and secured by any of the Collateral Documents or guaranteed by any of the Loan Guaranties, or the instruments representing the same, shall have ceased to be outstanding by virtue of the payment in full in cash thereof or the cancellation thereof or delivery for cancellation thereof in accordance with their terms.
