2020 (the “New First Lien Notes”) issued under the New First Lien Indenture, (B) with respect to the Liens securing certain Obligations as set forth below, to confirm and evidence that such Liens shall, for








 
purposes of the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement, be equal and ratable with all Liens on the Common Collateral securing any other Senior Lender Claims and (C) for certain related
purposes. 
 The parties to this Agreement hereby agree as follows: 

A. The New First Lien Notes Trustee, as trustee for the holders of the New First Lien Notes, agrees to become, with immediate effect, a party
to and agrees to be bound by the terms of the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement as Senior-Priority Agent for the holders of the New First Lien Notes, as if it had originally been party to the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement as Senior-Priority
Agent for the holders of the New First Lien Notes. 
 B. The New First Lien Indenture has been designated by the Company as being included
in the definition of “Credit Agreement” set forth in the Second Secured Notes Indenture. The New First Lien Indenture, the New First Lien Notes, the Security Documents (as defined in the New First Lien Indenture) (the “Security
Documents”) and any related document or instrument executed and delivered pursuant to any of the foregoing shall constitute “Senior Credit Documents” as defined in the Second Secured Notes Indenture. 

C. The Liens securing the Obligations under the New First Lien Notes, the New First Lien Indenture and any other document or agreement entered
into pursuant thereto granted pursuant to the Security Documents have been designated by the Company as having been incurred pursuant to clause (8) of the definition of “Permitted Liens” set forth in the Second Secured Notes
Indenture. The Obligations under the New First Lien Notes, the New First Lien Indenture and any other document or agreement entered into pursuant thereto constitute First-Lien Indebtedness (which First-Lien Indebtedness, for the avoidance of doubt,
also constitutes Future First-Lien Indebtedness) and Senior Lender Claims. 
 D. The Liens on the Common Collateral securing such Senior
Lender Claims shall have priority over and be senior in all respects to all Liens on the Common Collateral securing any Second-Priority Claims on the terms set forth in the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement and, subject to the terms of any other
applicable intercreditor agreement then in effect, shall be equal and ratable with all Liens on the Common Collateral securing any other Senior Lender Claims. 

E. So long as the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has not occurred and subject to the terms of any other applicable intercreditor agreement
then in effect, the Common Collateral or proceeds thereof received in connection with the sale or other disposition of, or collection on, the Common Collateral upon the exercise of remedies shall be applied by the Intercreditor Agent ratably to the
Senior Lender Claims and, with respect to each class of Senior Lender Claims, in such order as is specified in the relevant Senior Lender Documents until the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has occurred.
