(d)Other than as set forth in the first proviso to the second sentence of the immediately preceding paragraph (c), any First Priority Secured Party with physical possession of or control over Common Collateral shall not have any duty or liability to protect or preserve any rights pertaining to any of such Common Collateral and, except for gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction, each Second Priority Secured Party hereby waives and releases such Person from all claims and liabilities arising pursuant to such Person’s role as gratuitous bailee with respect to such Common Collateral.

2.4No New Liens. The parties hereto agree that there shall be no Lien, and no Grantor shall have any right to create any Lien, on any asset of such Grantor securing any Secured Obligation of such Grantor if such asset is not also subject to a Lien securing each other Secured Obligation of such Grantor, except that (a) nothing contained in this Section 2.4 shall preclude (i) the First Priority Secured Parties from being granted Adequate Protection Liens regardless of whether any Adequate Protection Liens are granted to the Second Priority Secured Parties or (ii) the Second Priority Secured Parties from being granted Adequate Protection Liens in accordance with Section 5.4 and (b) this Section 2.4 shall be inapplicable to any Lien securing obligations under any Bank Product Obligations and/or Letters of Credit (as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement and the LC Credit Agreement), and not any other obligations, that is permitted under each of the ABL/LC Credit Agreements and the Term Loan Agreement. If any Secured Party shall (nonetheless and in breach hereof) acquire or hold any Lien on any assets of any Grantor securing the Secured Obligations of such Grantor, which assets are not also subject to a Lien securing the other Secured Obligations of such Grantor as required by the first sentence of this Section 2.4, then such Secured Party shall, without the need for any further consent of any other Secured Party, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document, be deemed to hold and have held such Lien for the benefit of the Secured Parties holding Secured Obligations that are required to have a Lien on such assets by the first sentence of this Section 2.4 (and each such Lien so deemed to have been 


	
 
	
17
	
 




 



held shall be subject in all respects to the provisions of this Agreement, including without limitation the lien subordination provisions set forth in Section 2.1). In the event such Secured Party knows such assets are not subject to a Lien securing the other Secured Obligations of such Grantor as required by the first sentence of this Section 2.4, then such Secured Party shall promptly notify the other Secured Parties in writing of the existence of such Lien.

SECTION 3.Enforcement Rights.

3.1Exclusive Enforcement. 

(a)With respect to each Type of Common Collateral, until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date, whether or not an Insolvency Proceeding has been commenced by or against any Grantor, the First Priority Secured Parties shall have the exclusive right to take and continue (or refrain from taking or continuing) any Enforcement Action with respect to such Common Collateral, without any consultation with or consent of any Second Priority Secured Party with respect to such Common Collateral; provided that the Second Priority Secured Parties with respect to any Common Collateral may exercise credit bidding rights with respect to such Common Collateral to the extent expressly permitted under clause (y) of Section 5.6(a). With respect to each Type of Common Collateral, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default under the First Priority Documents (and subject to the provisions of the First Priority Documents), the First Priority Representative and the other First Priority Secured Parties may take and continue any Enforcement Action with respect to the applicable First Priority Obligations and such Common Collateral in such order and manner as they may determine in their sole discretion.

(b)Notwithstanding Section 3.1(a), with respect to each Type of Common Collateral, the Second Priority Representative and the Second Priority Secured Parties may enforce any of their rights and exercise any of their remedies with respect to the Common Collateral after a period of 180 days has elapsed since the date on which the Second Priority Representative has delivered to the First Priority Representative written notice of the acceleration or non-payment at maturity of the indebtedness then outstanding under the Second Priority Documents (the “Second Priority Standstill Period”); provided, that, notwithstanding the expiration of the Second Priority Standstill Period or anything to the contrary herein, with respect to each Type of Common Collateral, in no event shall the Second Priority Representative or any other Second Priority Secured Party enforce or exercise any rights or remedies with respect to such Common Collateral if the First Priority Representative or any other First Priority Secured Party shall have commenced, and shall be diligently pursuing (or shall have sought or requested relief from or modification of the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency Proceeding to enable the commencement and pursuit thereof), the enforcement or exercise of any rights or remedies with respect to all or a material portion of such Common Collateral (prompt written notice thereof to be given to the Second Priority Representative by the First Priority Representative). If any stay or other order prohibiting the exercise of remedies with respect to any Type of Common Collateral has been entered in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding or by a court of competent jurisdiction, the Second Priority Standstill Period with respect to such Common Collateral shall be tolled during the pendency of any such stay or other order.

(c)It is understood that Sections 3.1(a) and 3.1(b) do not restrict the following:

(i)in any Insolvency Proceeding commenced by or against any Grantor, the Second Priority Representative with respect to each Type of Common Collateral may file a claim or statement of interest with respect to such Type of Common Collateral;


	
 
	
18
	
 




 



(ii)the Second Priority Representative with respect to each Type of Common Collateral may take any action (not adverse to the priority or perfection status of the Liens securing the First Priority Obligations with respect to each Type of Common Collateral, or the rights of the First Priority Representative or the First Priority Secured Parties with respect to such Type of Common Collateral to exercise remedies in respect thereof) in order to create, preserve, perfect or protect (but not enforce) the Second Priority Lien on such Type of Common Collateral;

(iii)the Second Priority Secured Parties with respect to each Type of Common Collateral shall be entitled to file any necessary responsive or defensive pleadings in opposition to any motion, claim, adversary proceeding or other pleading made by any Person objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of the claims of the Second Priority Secured Parties with respect to such Type of Common Collateral, if any, in each case to the extent not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement;

(iv)the Second Priority Secured Parties with respect to each Type of Common Collateral shall be entitled to file any pleadings, objections, motions or agreements which assert rights or interests available to unsecured creditors of the Grantors arising under either any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law or applicable non-bankruptcy law, in each case to the extent not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement; and

(v)the Second Priority Secured Parties with respect to each Type of Common Collateral shall be entitled to vote on any plan of reorganization and file any proof of claim in an Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise and make any arguments and motions that are, in each case, to the extent not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement.

3.2Standstill and Waivers.

(a)With respect to each Type of Common Collateral, the Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties, agrees, for the benefit of the First Priority Representative and each other First Priority Secured Party, that until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date, subject to Section 3.1(c) and except in connection with the taking of any Second Priority Permitted Actions, they will not oppose, object to, interfere with, hinder or delay, in any manner, whether by judicial proceedings (including without limitation the filing of an Insolvency Proceeding) or otherwise, any foreclosure, sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of such Common Collateral pursuant to an Enforcement Action (or pursuant to a sale, lease, exchange or transfer as a result of which the Second Priority Lien is automatically released pursuant to Section 4.2(a)) or any other Enforcement Action taken by or on behalf of the First Priority Representative or any other First Priority Secured Party;

(b)With respect to each Type of Common Collateral, the Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties, agrees, for the benefit of the First Priority Representative and each other First Priority Secured Party, that until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date, they have no right to (i) direct the First Priority Representative or any other First Priority Secured Party to take any Enforcement Action with respect to such Common Collateral or (ii) subject to Section 3.1(c) and except in connection with the taking of any Second Priority Permitted Actions, consent or object to the taking by the First Priority Representative or any other First Priority Secured Party of any Enforcement Action with respect to such Common Collateral or to the timing or manner thereof (or, to the extent it may have any such right described in this Section 3.2(b) as a junior lien creditor, they hereby irrevocably waive such right);

(c)With respect to each Type of Common Collateral, the Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties, agrees, for the benefit of the First Priority Representative and each other First Priority Secured Party, that until the First Priority Obligations

Payment Date, they will not institute any suit or other proceeding or assert in any suit, Insolvency Proceeding or other proceeding, except as otherwise provided herein, any claim against the First Priority Representative or any other First Priority Secured Party seeking damages from or other relief by way of specific performance, instructions or otherwise, with respect to, and none of the First Priority Representative nor any other First Priority Secured Party shall be liable for, any action taken or omitted to be taken by the First Priority Representative or any First Priority Secured Party with respect to such Common Collateral or pursuant to the First Priority Documents; provided that nothing in this Section 3.2(c) shall be construed to prevent or limit any party hereto from instituting any such suit or other proceeding to enforce the terms of this Agreement;

(d)With respect to each Type of Common Collateral, the Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties agrees, for the benefit of the First Priority Representative and each other First Priority Secured Party, that until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date, they will not take any Enforcement Action with respect to such Common Collateral, except as otherwise permitted under the proviso to the first sentence of Section 3.1(a) or under Section 3.1(b) or Section 3.1(c);

(e)With respect to each Type of Common Collateral, the Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties, agrees, for the benefit of the First Priority Representative and each other First Priority Secured Party, that until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date, they will not commence judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure proceedings with respect to, seek to have a trustee, receiver, liquidator or similar official appointed for or over, attempt any action to take possession of, exercise any right, remedy or power with respect to, or otherwise take any action to enforce their interest in or realize upon, such Common Collateral, in each case, except as otherwise permitted under the proviso to the first sentence of Section 3.1(a) or under Section 3.1(b) or Section 3.1(c); and

(f)With respect to each Type of Common Collateral, the Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties, agrees, for the benefit of the First Priority Representative and each other First Priority Secured Party, that until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date, they will not seek, and hereby waive any right, to have such Common Collateral or any part thereof marshaled upon any foreclosure or other disposition of such Common Collateral, except as otherwise permitted under Section 3.1(b) or under Section 3.1(c).

3.3Judgment Creditors.  In the event that any Second Priority Secured Party becomes a judgment lien creditor as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor in respect of its Second Priority Obligations (it being understood that any such party may exercise its rights and remedies as an unsecured creditor against the relevant Grantors in accordance with the terms of the Second Priority Documents and applicable law; provided that such exercise of rights or remedies is not inconsistent with this Agreement), such judgment lien shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement for all purposes (including in relation to the First Priority Liens and the First Priority Obligations and the Second Priority Liens and the Second Priority Obligations, as applicable) to the same extent as all other Second Priority Liens (created pursuant to the Second Priority Documents), subject to this Agreement.

3.4Cooperation. 

(a)With respect to each Type of Common Collateral, the Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties, agrees that it shall take such actions as the First Priority Representative shall reasonably request in connection with an Enforcement Action by any First Priority Secured Party or the exercise by the First Priority Secured Parties of their rights set forth herein.   


	
 
	
20
	
 




 



(b)With respect to each Type of Common Collateral, on the First Priority Obligations Payment Date the First Priority Representative for such Common Collateral agrees to take all reasonable actions in its power (with all costs and expenses in connection therewith to be for the account of the Grantors) to permit the Second Priority Representative for such Common Collateral to obtain, for the benefit of the Second Priority Secured Parties for such Common Collateral, a first priority security interest in such Common Collateral, including without limitation in connection with the terms of any collateral access agreement, deposit account control agreement or other third party agreement, whether with a landlord, processor, warehouse or other third party, and with respect to any such agreement delivered on or after the date hereof, the First Priority Representative for such Common Collateral shall notify the other parties thereto that it is no longer the “Secured Party Representative,” “Representative,” “Lender Representative” or “Notice Agent” or similar term or otherwise entitled to act under such agreement and shall confirm to such parties that the Second Priority Representative for such Common Collateral is thereafter the “Secured Party Representative,” “Representative,” “Lender Representative” or “Notice Agent” or similar term as any of such terms are used in any such agreement and is otherwise entitled to the rights of the secured party under such agreement.  

3.5No Additional Rights for the Grantors Hereunder.  Except as provided in Section 3.6, if any Secured Party shall enforce its rights or remedies in violation of the terms of this Agreement, no Grantor shall be entitled to use such violation as a defense to any action by any Secured Party, nor to assert such violation as a counterclaim or basis for set off or recoupment against any Secured Party.

3.6Actions Upon Breach.

(a)With respect to each Type of Common Collateral, if any Second Priority Secured Party commences or participates in any action or proceeding against any Grantor in respect of such Common Collateral contrary to this Agreement, such Grantor, with the prior written consent of the First Priority Representative, may interpose as a defense or dilatory plea the making of this Agreement, and any First Priority Secured Party may intervene and interpose such defense or plea in its or their name or in the name of such Grantor.

SECTION 4.Application of Proceeds of Common Collateral; Dispositions and Releases of Common Collateral; Inspection and Insurance.

4.1Application of Proceeds; Turnover Provisions.

(a)All proceeds of ABL/LC Priority Collateral (to the extent such ABL/LC Priority Collateral constitutes Common Collateral) (including any interest earned thereon) received (i) in connection with any exercise of any Enforcement Action or other right or remedy (including set off) with 


	
 
	
21
	
 




 



respect to the ABL/LC Priority Collateral, (ii) in connection with the sale or other disposition of all or any portion of the ABL/LC Priority Collateral under Section 4.2, or (iii) following the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding (including any distributions pursuant to a plan of reorganization in such Insolvency Proceeding), in each case, shall be distributed as follows:

first, to the ABL Agent with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral, and the LC Agent with respect to the LC Priority Collateral,  to be applied in accordance with the ABL/LC Intercreditor Agreement and ABL/LC Credit Agreements until the Payment in Full of the ABL/LC Secured Obligations shall have occurred;

Any Common Collateral, including any Common Collateral constituting proceeds, received by a Second Priority Secured Party that is not permitted to be received pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be segregated and held in trust and promptly turned over to the First Priority Representative with respect to such Common Collateral to be applied in accordance with Section 4.1(a) or 4.1(b), as the case may be, in the same form as received, with any necessary endorsements, and each Second Priority Secured Party hereby authorizes the First Priority Representative to make any such endorsements as agent for the Second Priority Representative (which authorization, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable). Upon the 


	
 
	
22
	
 




 



turnover of such Common Collateral as contemplated by the immediately preceding sentence, the Second Priority Obligations purported to be satisfied by the payment of such Common Collateral shall be immediately reinstated in full as though such payment had never occurred.

4.2Releases of Lien.

(a)With respect to each Type of Common Collateral, upon any release, sale or disposition of such Common Collateral that results in the release of the First Priority Lien on such Common Collateral and that is (i) permitted pursuant to the terms of the First Priority Documents and not prohibited under the Second Priority Documents or (ii) effected pursuant to (A) an Enforcement Action or (B) any release, sale or disposition of all or any portion of such Common Collateral by a Grantor with the consent of the First Priority Representative with respect to such Common Collateral at any time that an Event of Default under the ABL/LC Credit Agreements or Term Loan Agreement, as applicable, has occurred and is continuing, the Second Priority Lien on such Common Collateral (but not on any proceeds of such Common Collateral not required to be paid to the First Priority Secured Parties) shall be automatically and unconditionally released.

(b)With respect to each Type of Common Collateral, until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date, the Second Priority Representative shall promptly execute and deliver such release documents and instruments, make such filing (including with any Secretary of State, the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office, as applicable) and shall take such further actions as the First Priority Representative shall reasonably request to evidence any release of the Second Priority Lien described in Section 4.2(a). With respect to each Type of Common Collateral, the Second Priority Representative hereby appoints the First Priority Representative and any officer or duly authorized person of the First Priority Representative, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power of attorney in the place and stead of the Second Priority Representative and in the name of the Second Priority Representative or in the First Priority Representative’s own name; provided that such power of attorney may only be exercised if the Second Priority Representative has not executed and delivered such release documents and instruments in a timely manner following a request from the First Priority Representative, and must be exercised in the First Priority Representative’s reasonable discretion, solely for the purposes of carrying out the terms of Section 4.2(a), to take any and all appropriate action and to execute and deliver any and all documents and instruments as may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of Section 4.2(a), including any financing statements, endorsements, assignments, releases or other documents or instruments of transfer (which appointment, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable).

(c)In the event that Proceeds of ABL Priority Collateral are received by any Secured Party in connection with a sale, transfer or other disposition of Collateral that directly or indirectly involves some or all of the ABL Priority Collateral and some or all of the Term Loan Priority Collateral (including, without limitation, pursuant to the sale or other disposition of a division or line of business or any Capital Stock of any Grantor) (it being understood and agreed that if a Grantor is sold or otherwise disposed of and such sale or other disposition is structured as a sale of equity interests, for purposes of this Agreement, such sale shall be treated as a sale of assets and the Proceeds shall be allocated as set forth in this Section 4.2), the portion of such Proceeds that shall be allocated as (i) proceeds of Accounts and Payment Intangibles shall be in an amount equal to the face amount of such Accounts and Payment Intangibles, (ii) proceeds of Inventory shall be an amount equal to the lesser of (A) the cost or market, calculated on a first-in, first-out basis, of such Inventory and (B) the appraised orderly liquidation value of such Inventory and (iii) proceeds of Equipment shall be in an amount equal to the appraised orderly liquidation value of such Equipment.


	
 
	
23
	
 




 



(d)For all purposes of this Agreement, ABL Priority Collateral and Term Loan Priority Collateral shall include the Proceeds thereof received directly from such ABL Priority Collateral or Term Loan Priority Collateral  including the sale or other disposition thereof; provided, that, (i) any property or asset purchased by any Grantor (whether purchased with proceeds of ABL Priority Collateral or Term Loan Priority Collateral), shall not be traced and any such property or assets will either be ABL Priority Collateral or Term Loan Priority Collateral based on the nature of such collateral and not the source of funds or other proceeds used to purchase such property or asset; and (ii) the foregoing shall not apply to (A) any property or asset purchased by any Grantor after the earlier of a Default (as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement or LC Credit Agreement) or a Default (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement) or (B) Accounts and Payment Intangibles that are the identifiable proceeds of the sale or other disposition of Term Loan Priority Collateral or cash constituting identifiable proceeds of property that was Term Loan Priority Collateral when such cash proceeds arose and are held in Deposit Accounts that contain solely such cash proceeds.

4.3Inspection Rights and Insurance.

(a)With respect to each Type of Common Collateral, until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date, any First Priority Secured Party and its representatives and invitees may, to the extent expressly permitted by the First Priority Documents, inspect, repossess, remove and otherwise deal with such Common Collateral, and, pursuant to an Enforcement Action, the First Priority Representative may advertise and conduct public auctions or private sales of such Common Collateral, in each case without notice (other than any notice required by law) to, the involvement of or interference by any Second Priority Secured Party or liability to any Second Priority Secured Party.

(b)Proceeds of Common Collateral include insurance proceeds and, therefore, the Lien priority shall govern the ultimate disposition of casualty insurance proceeds and business interruption insurance proceeds. To effectuate the foregoing and to the extent provided by the applicable Loan Documents, the ABL Agent, the LC Agent and the Term Loan Agent shall each receive separate lender’s loss payable endorsements naming themselves as loss payee and additional insured, as their interests may appear, with respect to policies which insure Common Collateral hereunder. If any insurance claim includes both ABL/LC Priority Collateral and Term Loan Priority Collateral and the insurer will not settle such claim separately with respect to ABL/LC Priority Collateral and Term Loan Priority Collateral, if the ABL/LC Controlling Agent and the Term Loan Agent are unable after negotiating in good faith to agree on the settlement for such claim, any of them (to the extent they have the right to direct the settlement of such claim under the applicable Loan Documents) may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction to make a determination regarding the allocation of proceeds of such insurance claim. All proceeds of such insurance shall be remitted to the extent required by the applicable Loan Documents to the ABL/LC Controlling Agent or the Term Loan Agent, as the case may be, and each of the ABL/LC Controlling Agent and the Term Loan Agent shall cooperate (if necessary) in a reasonable manner in effecting the payment of insurance proceeds in accordance with Section 4.1 hereof.

4.4Option to Purchase ABL Secured Obligations.

(a)Without prejudice to the enforcement of remedies by the ABL Agent (whether in its capacity as First Priority Representative or Second Priority Representative) or the ABL Secured Parties, the ABL Secured Parties agree that at any time following (i) acceleration of the ABL Secured Obligations in accordance with the terms of the ABL Credit Agreement, (ii) unless (A) the Term Loan Agent has not delivered an ABL Purchase Notice within the time period set forth in this Section 4.4(a) or (B) the ABL Purchase has been effectuated in accordance with this Section 4.4(a), the commencement of an Enforcement Action by the ABL Secured Parties after an “Event of Default” under the ABL Credit Agreement or (iii) the commencement of an Insolvency Proceeding by or against any Grantor (each, an 


	
 
	
24
	
 




 



“ABL Purchase Event”), the Term Loan Secured Parties (whether one or more) shall have the option to purchase by way of assignment (and, to the extent provided in clause (b) below, cash collateralization), and the ABL Secured Parties, severally and not jointly, hereby offer the Term Loan Secured Parties the option to purchase by way of assignment (and, to the extent provided in clause (b) below, cash collateralization) (and shall thereby also assume all commitments and duties of the ABL Secured Parties, other than in respect of Bank Products Obligations Agreements) all, but not less than all, of the aggregate amount of ABL Secured Obligations outstanding at the time of purchase (such option shall be exercisable by delivery of a written notice from the Term Loan Agent to the ABL Agent and the Borrower (the “ABL Purchase Notice”) and received by the ABL Agent and the Borrower no later than fifteen (15) Business Days after the date of the occurrence of such ABL Purchase Event; any such purchase, an “ABL Purchase”; and the persons effecting such purchase, the “ABL Purchasing Parties”); provided that (A) the Term Loan Secured Parties shall have the right, but not the obligation, to exercise any such ABL Purchase on a prorated basis among the Term Loan Secured Parties or in such other manner as the Term Loan Secured Parties shall agree, (B) at the time of (and as a condition to) any ABL Purchase all commitments pursuant to any then outstanding ABL Credit Agreement shall have terminated, (C) any ABL Purchase shall be effected not later than five (5) Business Days following date on which the ABL Agent received the ABL Purchase Notice, and (D) any ABL Purchase shall not in any way affect any rights of the ABL Secured Parties with respect to indemnification and other obligations of the Grantors under the ABL Loan Documents that are expressly stated to survive the termination of the ABL Documents (the “Surviving ABL Obligations”). Such ABL Purchase Notice from the Term Loan Agent to the ABL Agent and the Borrower shall be irrevocable unless otherwise agreed in writing by the ABL Agent, and such purchase shall occur no later than five (5) Business Days after the ABL Purchase Notice was received by the ABL Agent and the Borrower. The obligations of the ABL Secured Parties hereunder to sell the ABL Secured Obligations owing to them are several and not joint and several. 

(b)Without limiting the obligations of the Grantors to the ABL Secured Parties under the ABL Loan Documents with respect to the Surviving ABL Obligations, on the date of an ABL Purchase, the ABL Purchasing Parties shall (i) pay to the ABL Secured Parties as the purchase price (the “ABL Purchase Price”) 100% of the amount of all ABL Secured Obligations (other than Unasserted Contingent Obligations) then outstanding and unpaid (including principal, interest, fees, breakage costs, attorneys’ and advisors’ fees and expenses (in each case, whether or not invoiced or final)), payable in cash, (ii) furnish cash collateral to the ABL Secured Parties in such amounts as the relevant ABL Secured Parties determine is reasonably necessary to secure such ABL Secured Parties in connection with any ABL Secured Obligations in respect of Bank Products Obligations Agreements, without prejudice to the right of such ABL Secured Parties to terminate any such Bank Products Obligations Agreements at any time, (iii) furnish cash collateral to the ABL Secured Parties in such amounts as the relevant ABL Secured Parties determine is reasonably necessary to secure such ABL Secured Parties in connection with any outstanding Letters of Credit (as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement) (not to exceed 105% of the aggregate undrawn face amount of such letters of credit) and (iv) agree to reimburse the ABL Secured Parties for (A) returned payment items relating to any checks or other payments provisionally credited to the ABL Secured Obligations and/or as to which the ABL Secured Parties have not yet received final payment and, in each case, are reflected in the ABL Purchase Price and (B) to the extent that the cash collateral furnished pursuant to clauses (ii) and/or (iii) is insufficient, all amounts thereafter drawn under any outstanding Letters of Credit or thereafter payable by the ABL Secured Parties (or any of them) in respect of Bank Products Obligations Agreements.

(c)The ABL Purchase Price and cash collateral shall be remitted by wire transfer in immediately available funds to such account of the ABL Agent as it shall designate to the ABL Purchasing Parties. The ABL Agent shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, distribute the amounts received by it in respect of the ABL Purchase Price to the ABL Secured Parties in accordance with their holdings of the applicable ABL Secured Obligations. Interest shall be calculated to but excluding the day 


	
 
	
25
	
 




 



on which the ABL Purchase occurs if the amounts so paid by the ABL Purchasing Parties to the account designated by the ABL Agent are received in such account prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time, and interest shall be calculated to and including such day if the amounts so paid by the ABL Purchasing Parties to the account designated by the ABL Agent are received in such account later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time.

(d)After the date of such ABL Purchase (i) the ABL Agent will promptly provide the Term Loan Agent with written notification of the termination of any Bank Products Obligations Agreements and the cancellation or termination of any Letters of Credit (as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement), in each case, for which the ABL Purchasing Parties have provided cash collateral, and (ii) to the extent any Bank Products Obligations Agreements are terminated or any Letters of Credit are cancelled or terminated without being drawn, the ABL Agent shall return to the ABL Purchasing Parties such portion of the cash collateral furnished to the ABL Agent as collateral therefor and not applied to the satisfaction of the ABL Secured Obligations to which such cash collateral relates.

(e)The ABL Purchase shall be made without representation or warranty of any kind by the ABL Secured Parties as to the ABL Secured Obligations, the ABL Priority Collateral or otherwise and without recourse to the ABL Secured Parties, except that the ABL Secured Parties shall represent and warrant: (i) the amount of the ABL Secured Obligations being purchased, (ii) that the ABL Secured Parties own the ABL Secured Obligations free and clear of any Liens (other than participation interests not prohibited under the ABL Credit Agreement, in which case the ABL Purchase Price shall be appropriately adjusted so that the ABL Purchasing Parties do not pay amounts in respect of any participation interests that remain in effect) and (iii) that the ABL Secured Parties have the right to assign the ABL Secured Obligations and the assignment is duly authorized.

(f)The ABL Purchase shall be made pursuant to assignment documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the ABL Agent (with the reasonable and documented cost of such documentation to be paid by the Grantors or, if the Grantors do not make such payment, by the respective purchasers, who shall have the right to obtain reimbursement of same from the Grantors).

(g)The obligations of the ABL Secured Parties to sell their respective ABL Secured Obligations under this Section 4.4(g) are several and not joint and several. To the extent any ABL Secured Party breaches its obligation to sell its ABL Secured Obligations under this Section 4.4(g) (a “Defaulting ABL Secured Party”), nothing in this Section 4.4(g) shall be deemed to require the ABL Agent or any other ABL Secured Party to purchase such Defaulting ABL Secured Party’s ABL Secured Obligations for resale to any Term Loan Secured Party, and in all cases the ABL Agent and each ABL Secured Party complying with the terms of this Section 4.4(g) shall not be deemed to be in default of this Agreement or otherwise be deemed liable for any action or inaction of any Defaulting ABL Secured Party; provided that nothing in this Section 4.4(g) shall require any ABL Purchasing Party to purchase less than all of the ABL Secured Obligations.

(h)Each Grantor irrevocably consents to any assignment effected to one or more Term Loan Secured Parties pursuant to this Section 4.4 for purposes of all ABL Loan Documents and hereby agrees that no further consent to any such assignment pursuant to this Section from such Grantor shall be required.

SECTION 5.Insolvency Proceedings.

5.1Filing of Motions

. With respect to each Type of Common Collateral, each of the First Priority Representative and the Second Priority Representative agrees on behalf of itself and the other First Priority Secured Parties and other Second Priority Secured Parties, respectively, that it shall not, in or in 


	
 
	
26
	
 




 



connection with any Insolvency Proceeding, file any pleadings or motions, take any position at any hearing or proceeding of any nature, or otherwise take any action whatsoever, in each case to challenge, contest or otherwise object to the scope, validity, enforceability, perfection or priority of any Liens in respect of Secured Obligations held by any other Secured Party and no Secured Party shall support any other Person doing any of the foregoing.

5.2Financing Matters.

(a)If any Grantor becomes subject to any Insolvency Proceeding, and if the ABL Agent with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral, and the LC Agent with respect to the LC Priority Collateral consents (or does not object) to the use of ABL Priority Collateral or LC Priority Collateral, as the case may be, constituting Common Collateral (for the avoidance of doubt, including but not limited to the use of any such ABL Priority Collateral that is cash collateral) by any Grantor during any Insolvency Proceeding or provides financing to any Grantor under the Bankruptcy Code secured by ABL Priority Collateral or LC Priority Collateral, or consents (or does not object) to the provision of such financing to any Grantor by any third party (any such use of cash collateral or financing, whether provided by the First Priority Secured Parties with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral or LC Priority Collateral (or any of them) or any third party approved by ABL Agent with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral and LC Agent with respect to the LC Priority Collateral, being referred to herein as an “ABL Priority DIP Financing”), then the Term Loan Agent agrees, on behalf of itself and the other Term Loan Secured Parties, that each such Term Loan Secured Party (a) will be deemed to have consented to, will raise no objection to, and will not support any other Person objecting to, the use of such ABL Priority Collateral, LC Priority Collateral or to such ABL Priority DIP Financing, (b) shall only request or accept adequate protection in connection with the use of such ABL Priority Collateral or LC Priority Collateral, or such ABL Priority DIP Financing as permitted by Section 5.4 below, (c) will subordinate (and will be deemed hereunder to have subordinated) the Second Priority Liens, and any Adequate Protection Liens provided in respect thereof (i) to the Liens on such ABL/LC Priority Collateral securing such ABL Priority DIP Financing on the same terms and conditions as the First Priority Liens on such ABL/LC Priority Collateral are subordinated to such Liens on such ABL/LC Priority Collateral securing such ABL Priority DIP Financing (and such subordination will not alter in any manner the terms of this Agreement), (ii) to any adequate protection with respect to the ABL/LC Priority Collateral provided to the ABL Agent or LC Agent, including, without limitation, Adequate Protection Liens on the ABL/LC Priority Collateral provided to the ABL/LC Secured Parties with respect to the ABL/LC Priority Collateral and (iii) to any “carve-out” with respect to the ABL/LC Priority Collateral for professional and United States Trustee fees agreed to by the ABL Agent or LC Agent or the other ABL/LC Secured Parties and (d) agrees that any notice of such events found to be adequate by the bankruptcy court shall be adequate notice; provided that, with respect to clauses (a) through (d) above, 

(A)the aggregate principal amount of (1) any ABL Priority DIP Financing plus (2) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the ABL/LC Secured Obligations outstanding as of the date of the commencement of the Insolvency Proceeding shall not exceed the maximum principal amount permitted pursuant to clause (b) of the definition of “Maximum Obligations Amount”;

(B)Term Loan Agent retains a Lien on the Collateral (including Proceeds thereof arising after the commencement of such proceeding) with the same priority relative to the Liens on such Collateral of the ABL/LC Secured Parties as existed prior to the commencement of the case under the Bankruptcy Code (i.e., junior in priority to the Liens on the ABL/LC Priority Collateral securing such ABL Priority DIP Financing and the ABL/LC Secured Obligations, but senior in priority to the Liens on the Term Loan Priority Collateral securing such ABL Priority DIP Financing and ABL/LC Secured Obligations to the same extent as provided under Section 2.1); 


	
 
	
27
	
 




 



(C)Term Loan Agent receives additional or replacement Liens on all post-petition assets of any Grantor which are subject to an additional or replacement Lien to secure the ABL Priority DIP Financing with the same priority relative to the Liens of each ABL/LC Agent as existed prior to such Insolvency Proceeding to the extent Term Loan Agent seeks such Liens and is entitled to such additional or replacement Liens under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable debtor relief laws as determined by the Bankruptcy Court having jurisdiction over the case;

(D)such ABL Priority DIP Financing is subject to the terms of this Agreement; and

(E)as a condition of such ABL Priority DIP Financing, until the Payment in Full of Term Loan Secured Obligations, (1) all proceeds of the Term Loan Priority Collateral shall either (x) be remitted to Term Loan Agent for application in accordance with Section 4.1 hereof or (y) only be used by Grantors subject to terms and conditions acceptable to Term Loan Agent, and (2) no portion of the Term Loan Priority Collateral shall be used to repay the ABL/LC Secured Obligations outstanding as of the date of the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding or any ABL/LC Secured Obligations incurred thereafter pursuant to any such ABL Priority DIP Financing until the Payment in Full of Term Loan Secured Obligations in accordance with Section 4.1.

(b)If any Grantor becomes subject to any Insolvency Proceeding, and if the Term Loan Agent consents (or does not object) to the use of Term Loan Priority Collateral constituting Common Collateral (for the avoidance of doubt, including but not limited to the use of any such Term Loan Priority Collateral that is cash collateral) by any Grantor during any Insolvency Proceeding or provides financing to any Grantor under the Bankruptcy Code secured by Term Loan Priority Collateral or consents (or does not object) to the provision of such financing to any Grantor by any third party (any such use of cash collateral or financing, whether provided by the Term Loan Secured Parties with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral (or any of them) or any third party, approved by Term Loan Agent, being referred to herein as an “Term Loan Priority DIP Financing”), then the ABL/LC Agents agree, on behalf of itself and the other ABL/LC Secured Parties, that each such ABL/LC Secured Party (a) will be deemed to have consented to, will raise no objection to, and will not support any other Person objecting to, the use of such Term Loan Priority Collateral or to such Term Loan Priority DIP Financing, (b) shall only request or accept adequate protection in connection with the use of such Term Loan Priority Collateral or such Term Loan Priority DIP Financing as permitted by Section 5.4 below, (c) will subordinate (and will be deemed hereunder to have subordinated) the Second Priority Liens and any Adequate Protection Liens provided in respect thereof (i) to the Liens on such Term Loan Priority Collateral securing such Term Loan Priority DIP Financing on the same terms and conditions as the First Priority Liens on such Term Loan Priority Collateral are subordinated to such Liens on such Term Loan Priority Collateral securing such Term Loan Priority DIP Financing (and such subordination will not alter in any manner the terms of this Agreement), (ii) to any adequate protection with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral provided to the Term Loan Secured Parties with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral, including, without limitation, Adequate Protection Liens on the Term Loan Priority Collateral provided to the Term Loan Secured Parties with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral and (iii) to any “carve-out” with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral for professional and United States Trustee fees agreed to by the Term Loan Agent or the other Term Loan Secured Parties and (d) agrees that any notice of such events found to be adequate by the bankruptcy court shall be adequate notice; provided that, with respect to clauses (a) through (d) above, 

(A)the aggregate principal amount of (1) any Term Loan Priority DIP Financing plus (2) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan Secured Obligations outstanding as of the date of the commencement of the Insolvency Proceeding shall not exceed the maximum principal amount permitted pursuant to clause (a) of the definition of “Maximum Obligations Amount”;


	
 
	
28
	
 




 



(B)each of ABL Agent and LC Agent retains a Lien on the Collateral (including Proceeds thereof arising after the commencement of such proceeding) with the same priority relative to the Liens on such Collateral of Term Loan Agent as existed prior to the commencement of the case under the Bankruptcy Code (i.e., junior in priority to the Liens on the Term Loan Priority Collateral securing such Term Loan Priority DIP Financing and the Term Loan Secured Obligations, but senior in priority to the Liens on the ABL/LC Priority Collateral securing such Term Loan Priority DIP Financing and the Term Loan Secured Obligations to the same extent as provided under Section 2.1);

(C)each of ABL Agent and LC Agent receives additional or replacement Liens on all post-petition assets of any Grantor which are subject to an additional or replacement Lien to secure the Term Loan Priority DIP Financing with the same priority relative to the Liens of Term Loan Agent as existed prior to such Insolvency Proceeding to the extent ABL Agent and LC Agent, as the case may be, seeks such Liens and is entitled to such additional or replacement Liens under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable debtor relief laws as determined by the Bankruptcy Court having jurisdiction over the case;

(D)such Term Loan Priority DIP Financing is subject to the terms of this Agreement; and

(E)as a condition of such Term Loan Priority DIP Financing, until the Payment in Full of ABL Secured Obligations, (1) all proceeds of the ABL/LC Priority Collateral shall either (x) be remitted to ABL Agent in the case of ABL Priority Collateral or LC Agent in case of LC Priority Collateral for application in accordance with Section 4.1 hereof or (y) only be used by Grantors subject to terms and conditions acceptable to ABL Agent and LC Agent, and (2) no portion of the ABL/LC Priority Collateral shall be used to repay the Term Loan Secured Obligations outstanding as of the date of the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding or any Term Loan Secured Obligations incurred thereafter pursuant to any such Term Loan Priority DIP Financing until the Payment in Full of ABL/LC Secured Obligations in accordance with Section 4.1.

(c)No ABL/LC Secured Party shall, directly or indirectly, provide, or seek to provide, or support any other Person providing or seeking to provide, the ABL Priority DIP Financing secured by Liens equal or senior in priority to the Liens on the Term Loan Priority Collateral (including any assets or property arising after the commencement of a case under the Bankruptcy Code) securing the Term Loan Secured Obligations, without the prior written consent of Term Loan Agent.  No Term Loan Secured Party shall, directly or indirectly, provide, or seek to provide, or support any other Person providing or seeking to provide, the Term Loan Priority DIP Financing secured by Liens equal or senior in priority to the Liens on the ABL/LC Priority Collateral (including any assets or property arising after the commencement of a case under the Bankruptcy Code) securing the ABL/LC Secured Obligations, without the prior written consent of ABL Agent and LC Agent.  For purposes hereof, all references to Collateral shall include any assets or property of the Grantors arising after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding that are subject to the Liens of Agents.

5.3Relief From the Automatic Stay.  With respect to each Type of Common Collateral, the Second Priority Representative agrees, on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties, that none of them will (i) seek relief from the automatic stay or from any other stay in any Insolvency Proceeding or take any action in violation thereof, or support any other Person seeking such relief or taking such action, in each case in respect of such Common Collateral, without the prior written consent of the First Priority Representative or (ii) object to, contest, or support any other Person objecting to or contesting, any relief from the automatic stay or from any other stay in any Insolvency Proceeding requested by any First Priority Secured Party.


	
 
	
29
	
 




 



5.4Adequate Protection.  With respect to each Type of Common Collateral, the Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties, agrees that none of them shall object to, contest, or support any other Person objecting to or contesting, (i) any request by the First Priority Representative or any other First Priority Secured Party for adequate protection with respect to such Common Collateral, including, without limitation, in the form of Adequate Protection Liens, superpriority claims, interest, fees, expenses or other amounts or (ii) any objection by the First Priority Representative or any other First Priority Secured Party to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on a claim of a lack of adequate protection to the First Priority Secured Parties with respect to such Common Collateral or (iii) the payment of principal, interest, fees, expenses or other amounts to the First Priority Representative or any other First Priority Secured Party under section 506(b) or 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise with respect to such Common Collateral. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement, (1) in any Insolvency Proceeding, the Second Priority Representative and the other Second Priority Secured Parties, in each case with respect to each Type of Common Collateral, may seek, support, accept or retain adequate protection (A) only if the First Priority Secured Parties with respect to such Common Collateral are granted adequate protection that includes Adequate Protection Liens on additional collateral and superpriority claims and such First Priority Secured Parties do not object to the adequate protection being provided to them and (B) solely in the form of (x) Adequate Protection Liens on the same additional collateral, subordinated to the Adequate Protection Liens granted to the First Priority Representative or any other First Priority Secured Party and the Liens securing any DIP Financing provided by, or consented to by (including via non-objection), the First Priority Secured Parties with respect to such Common Collateral on the same basis as the other Second Priority Liens on such Common Collateral, are so subordinated to the First Priority Liens on such Common Collateral under this Agreement, (y) superpriority claims subordinated (but only to the extent such superpriority claims are satisfied from the proceeds of the Common Collateral on which the First Priority Secured Parties have First Priority Liens) to the superpriority claims granted to the First Priority Secured Parties and (z) non-monetary adequate protection that is customarily provided in an Insolvency Proceeding, including, without limitation, in the form of the provision of information and the ability to monitor such Common Collateral and (2) with respect to each Type of Common Collateral, in the event any Second Priority Secured Party receives adequate protection in the form of Adequate Protection Liens, then the Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties, (i) consents to the First Priority Representative having a senior Adequate Protection Lien on such additional collateral as security for the First Priority Obligations and that any Adequate Protection Liens granted to the Second Priority Secured Parties on any additional collateral shall be subordinated to the Liens on such collateral securing the First Priority Obligations and any DIP Financing provided by, or consented to by (including via non-objection), the First Priority Secured Parties with respect to such Common Collateral (and all obligations relating thereto) and any Adequate Protection Liens granted to the First Priority Secured Parties, with such subordination to be on the same terms that the other Second Priority Liens are subordinated to such First Priority Liens under this Agreement, and (ii) agrees that, if the bankruptcy court does not grant the First Priority Secured Parties a senior Adequate Protection Lien on such additional collateral, then the Second Priority Secured Parties shall be deemed to hold and have held their Adequate Protection Lien on such additional collateral for the benefit of the First Priority Secured Parties (and each such Lien so deemed to have been held shall be subject in all respects to the provisions of this Agreement, including without limitation the lien subordination provisions set forth in Section 2.1) and, until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date, any distributions in respect of such additional collateral received by the Second Priority Secured Parties shall be segregated and held in trust and promptly turned over to the First Priority Representative to repay the First Priority Obligations. To the extent so authorized by a court of competent jurisdiction, upon the turnover of such distributions as contemplated by the immediately preceding sentence, the Second Priority Obligations purported to be satisfied by such distributions shall be immediately reinstated in full as though such payment had never occurred.


	
 
	
30
	
 




 



5.5Avoidance Issues. 

(a)With respect to each Type of Common Collateral, if any First Priority Secured Party is required in any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise to disgorge, turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of any Grantor, because such amount was avoided or ordered to be paid or disgorged for any reason, including without limitation because it was found to be a fraudulent or preferential transfer, any amount (a “Recovery”), whether received as proceeds of security, enforcement of any right of set-off or otherwise, then the First Priority Obligations shall be reinstated to the extent of such Recovery and deemed to be outstanding as if such payment had not occurred, and the First Priority Obligations Payment Date shall be deemed not to have occurred. 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. The Second Priority Secured Parties with respect to each Type of Common Collateral agree that none of them shall be entitled to benefit from any avoidance action affecting or otherwise relating to any distribution or allocation with respect to such Common Collateral made in accordance with this Agreement, whether by preference or otherwise, it being understood and agreed that the benefit of such avoidance action otherwise allocable to them shall instead be allocated and turned over for application in accordance with the priorities set forth in this Agreement.

(b)With respect to each Type of Common Collateral, if any Grantor receives a Recovery from any Second Priority Secured Party, whether received as proceeds of security, enforcement of any right of set-off or otherwise, then the Second Priority Obligations shall be reinstated to the extent of such Recovery and deemed to be outstanding as if such payment had not occurred, and the Second Priority Obligations Payment Date shall be deemed not to have occurred. 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.

5.6Asset Dispositions in an Insolvency Proceeding. 

(a)With respect to each Type of Common Collateral, the Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties, agrees that (i) none of them shall, in an Insolvency Proceeding, object to or oppose (or support any Person in objecting to or opposing) any sale or disposition of any such Common Collateral that is supported by the First Priority Secured Parties, and (ii) they will be deemed to have consented under section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (and otherwise) to any such sale supported by the First Priority Secured Parties free and clear of the Liens of the Second Priority Representative and the other Second Priority Secured Parties or other claims under Sections 363, 365 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code (and including any motion for bid procedures or other procedures related to the sale or disposition); provided that (A) the Lien of the Second Priority Representative shall remain in place with respect to any proceeds of any such sale or disposition that are not applied to the repayment of the First Priority Obligations and (B) the Second Priority Representative and the Second Priority Secured Parties shall be entitled to seek and exercise credit bid rights in respect of any such sale or disposition so long as the First Priority Obligations Payment Date shall occur upon consummation of such sale or disposition; provided that the Second Priority Secured Parties shall not be deemed to have agreed to any credit bid by other Secured Parties in connection with a single sale of both ABL Priority Collateral and Term Loan Priority Collateral.

(b)[Reserved.]


	
 
	
31
	
 




 



(c)If a single sale or disposition of Common Collateral in an Insolvency Proceeding includes both ABL Priority Collateral and Term Loan Priority Collateral, the allocation of proceeds shall be as provided in Section 4.2(c)(including any sale of equity interests as provided therein).

5.7Separate Grants of Security and Separate Classification.  Each of the ABL/LC Agents, on behalf of itself and the ABL/LC Secured Parties, and the Term Loan Agent, on behalf of itself and the Term Loan Secured Parties, acknowledges and agrees that (i) the grant of Liens on the Common Collateral securing the ABL Secured Obligations and LC Secured Obligations each constitutes a separate and distinct grant of Liens from the grant of Liens on such Common Collateral securing the Term Loan Secured Obligations and (ii) because of, among other things, their differing rights in such Common Collateral, each of the ABL Secured Obligations, the LC Secured Obligations and Term Loan Secured Obligations is fundamentally different and must be separately classified in any plan of reorganization proposed or confirmed in an Insolvency Proceeding. To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, if a court of competent jurisdiction holds that the claims of the ABL Secured Parties, the claims of the LC Secured Parties and/or the claims of Term Loan Secured Parties in respect of any Type of Common Collateral constitute more than one secured claim (rather than separate classes of first, second and third priority secured claims), then the Secured Parties in respect of such Common Collateral hereby acknowledge and agree that all distributions shall be made as if there were separate classes of first, second and third priority secured claims against the relevant Grantors in respect of such Common Collateral (with the effect being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of such Common Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the Second Priority Secured Parties), the First Priority Secured Parties with respect to such Common Collateral shall be entitled to receive, in addition to distributions to them in respect of principal, pre-petition interest and other claims, all amounts owing in respect of Post-Petition Interest (at the applicable non-default rate) before any distribution is made in respect of the claims held by the Second Priority Secured Parties), with the Second Priority Secured Parties with respect to such Common Collateral hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the First Priority Secured Parties with respect to such Common Collateral distributions otherwise received or receivable by them in respect of such Common Collateral to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing the claim or recovery of the Second Priority Secured Parties with respect to such Common Collateral.

5.8Plans of Reorganization.

(a)With respect to each Type of Common Collateral, if the claims of the First Priority Secured Parties and the claims held by the Second Priority Secured Parties constitute only one secured claim pursuant to any plan of reorganization proposed in an Insolvency Proceeding (rather than separate classes of first and second priority secured claims), notwithstanding the objection to, and vote against, such plan by such Secured Parties in accordance with Section 5.7, no Second Priority Secured Party shall support or vote its applicable claims in respect of its Secured Obligations in favor of such plan of reorganization (and each shall vote and shall be deemed to have voted to reject any plan of reorganization) unless such plan (A) pays off, in cash in full, all First Priority Obligations or (B) is supported by the First Priority Representative. If any such Second Priority Secured Party with respect to any Type of Common Collateral votes its applicable claims in respect of its Secured Obligations in favor of any plan or reorganization in violation of this Section 5.8(a), such Second Priority Secured Party irrevocably agrees that such vote shall be deemed unauthorized, void and of no force and effect and the First Priority Representative shall be, and shall be deemed, such party’s “authorized agent” under Bankruptcy Rules 3018(c) and 9010, and that the First Priority Representative shall be authorized and entitled to withdraw such vote and submit a superseding ballot on behalf of such Second Priority Secured Party that is consistent herewith.


	
 
	
32
	
 




 



(b)If, in any Insolvency 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 or similar dispositive restructuring plan, on account of ABL Secured Obligations and on account of Term Loan Secured Obligations, then, to the extent the debt obligations distributed on account of the ABL Secured Obligations and on account of the Term Loan Secured Obligations 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.

5.9Other Matters.  With respect to each Type of Common Collateral, to the extent that the Second Priority Representative or any other Second Priority Secured Party has or acquires rights under section 363 or section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to any of such Common Collateral, the Second Priority Representative agrees, on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties, not to assert any of such rights without the prior written consent of the First Priority Representative with respect to such Common Collateral; provided that if requested by the First Priority Representative, the Second Priority Representative with respect to such Common Collateral shall timely exercise such rights in the manner requested by such First Priority Representative, including any rights to payments in respect of such rights.

5.10No Waiver of Rights of First Priority Secured Parties.  With respect to each Type of Common Collateral, nothing contained herein shall prohibit or in any way limit the First Priority Representative or any other First Priority Secured Party from objecting in any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise to any action taken by any Second Priority Secured Party other than any action taken by such Second Priority Secured Party, as the case may be, that is expressly permitted by this Agreement. 

5.11Effectiveness in Insolvency Proceedings

.  This Agreement, which the parties hereto expressly acknowledge is a “subordination agreement” under section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, shall be effective before, during and after the commencement of an Insolvency Proceeding. Upon the commencement of an Insolvency Proceeding, all references in this Agreement to any Grantor shall include such Grantor as a debtor-in-possession and any receiver or trustee for such Grantor in any Insolvency Proceeding, and the rights and obligations hereunder of the First Priority Secured Parties and the Second Priority Secured Parties with respect to each Type of Collateral shall be fully enforceable as between such parties regardless of the pendency of Insolvency Proceedings or any related limitations on the enforcement of this Agreement against any Grantor.  Notwithstanding Section 1129(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, the relative rights of the ABL/LC Secured Parties and the Term Loan Secured Parties in or to any distributions from or in respect of any Collateral or Proceeds shall continue after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding involving any Grantor, including the filing of any petition by or against any Grantor under the Bankruptcy Code and all converted cases and subsequent cases, on the same basis as prior to the date of such commencement, subject to any court order approving the financing of, or use of cash collateral by, any Grantor as debtor-in-possession, or any other court order affecting the rights and interests of the parties hereto not in conflict with this Agreement. References to Collateral in this Agreement shall include assets of the Grantors that but for the application of Section 552 of the Bankruptcy Code would constitute ABL/LC Priority Collateral or Term Loan Priority Collateral.

SECTION 6.Matters Relating to Loan Documents.

6.1General.

(a)Each of the ABL Agent, on behalf of itself and the ABL Secured Parties, the LC Agent, on behalf of itself and the LC Secured Parties and the Term Loan Agent, on behalf of itself and the Term Loan Secured Parties, and each Grantor agrees that it shall not at any time execute or deliver any 


	
 
	
33
	
 




 



amendment or other modification to any of the First Priority Documents or the Second Priority Documents in violation of this Agreement.

(b)With respect to each Type of Common Collateral, until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date, in the event the First Priority Representative enters into any amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the First Priority Security Documents for the purpose of adding to, or deleting from, or waiving or consenting to any departures from any provisions of, any First Priority Security Document or changing in any manner the rights of any parties thereunder, then such amendment, waiver or consent shall apply automatically to any comparable provision of the Comparable Second Priority Security Document without the consent of or action by any Second Priority Secured Party (with each First Priority Security Document as so amended, and each Second Priority Security Document as so amended, continuing to be subject to the terms hereof); provided that (i) no such amendment, waiver or consent shall have the effect of removing assets subject to the Lien of any Second Priority Security Document, except to the extent that a release of such Lien is permitted by Section 4.2, (ii) any such amendment, waiver or consent that materially and adversely affects the rights of the Second Priority Secured Parties and does not affect the First Priority Secured Parties in a like or similar manner shall not apply to the Second Priority Security Documents without the consent of the Second Priority Representative and (iii) notice of such amendment, waiver or consent shall be given to the Second Priority Representative by the First Priority Representative no later than 30 days after its effectiveness, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the effectiveness and validity thereof or cause a default by any Grantor under the Loan Documents.

(c)Each of the Grantors and the Representatives agrees that each First Priority Security Document and Second Priority Security Document shall contain the applicable provisions set forth on Annex I hereto, or similar provisions approved by the Representatives, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

6.2Restrictions on Refinancings.

(a)The indebtedness under the ABL Credit Agreement may be Refinanced, in whole but not in part, with the same or different lenders or Representatives in a Refinancing, without the consent of the LC Agent or the holders of the LC Secured Obligations or Term Loan Agent or the holders of the Term Loan Secured Obligations; provided that (i) the holders of any indebtedness resulting from such Refinancing (or the Representative thereof) shall have become bound in writing to the terms of this Agreement in the manner set forth in Section 10 (and shall have delivered a copy of the Representative Joinder Agreement pursuant to which such holders or such Representative shall have become bound to the terms of this Agreement to each other party to this Agreement in the manner provided for notices set forth in Section 11.7) and (ii) no such Refinancing shall have the effect of increasing the sum of the principal amount of ABL Secured Obligations and the LC Secured Obligations then outstanding or permitted to be outstanding to an amount that exceeds the Maximum Obligations Amount with respect to the ABL/LC Secured Obligations.

(b)The indebtedness under the LC Credit Agreement may be Refinanced, in whole but not in part, with the same or different lenders or Representatives in a Refinancing, without the consent of the LC Agent or the holders of the LC Secured Obligations or Term Loan Agent or the holders of the Term Loan Secured Obligations; provided that (i) the holders of any indebtedness resulting from such Refinancing (or the Representative thereof) shall have become bound in writing to the terms of this Agreement in the manner set forth in Section 10 (and shall have delivered a copy of the Representative Joinder Agreement pursuant to which such holders or such Representative shall have become bound to the terms of this Agreement to each other party to this Agreement in the manner provided for notices set forth in Section 11.7) and (ii) no such Refinancing shall have the effect of increasing the sum of the LC Secured

Obligations plus the ABL Secured Obligations then outstanding or permitted to be outstanding to an amount that exceeds the Maximum Obligations Amount with respect to the ABL/LC Secured Obligations.

(c)The indebtedness in respect of the Term Loans may be Refinanced, in whole or in part, with the same or different lenders or Representatives in a Refinancing, without the consent of the ABL Agent or the ABL Secured Parties or LC Agent or the LC Secured Parties; provided that (i) the holders of any indebtedness resulting from such Refinancing (or the Representative thereof) shall have become bound in writing to the terms of this Agreement in the manner set forth in Section 10 (and shall have delivered a copy of the Representative Joinder Agreement pursuant to which such holders or such Representative shall have become bound to the terms of this Agreement to each other party to this Agreement in the manner provided for notices set forth in Section 11.7) and (ii) no such Refinancing shall have the effect of increasing the principal amount of Term Loan Secured Obligations then outstanding or permitted to be outstanding to an amount that exceeds the Maximum Obligations Amount with respect to the Term Loan Secured Obligations.

6.3Restrictions on Amendments, Supplements and Modifications.

(a)The ABL/LC Loan Documents may be amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified in accordance with their terms; provided, that no such amendment, supplement or modification shall, without the consent of the Term Loan Agent, have the effect of:

(ii)changing the final scheduled date for repayment of the loans outstanding or permitted to be outstanding under the ABL/LC Credit Agreement to an earlier date.

(iii)modifying the terms of (a) mandatory prepayment provisions, including, without limitation, excess cash flow sweeps or any other mandatory prepayments of principal or (b) amortization, in each case of or under the Term Loan Agreement, in a manner that increases the amount or frequency of any of such payments, or requires additional mandatory prepayments or excess cash flow sweeps or limits the rights of Grantors with respect thereto.

7.1Consent to License to Use Intellectual Property.  The First Priority Representative with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral (and any purchaser, assignee or transferee of assets as provided in Section 7.3) (a) consents (without any representation, warranty or obligation whatsoever) to the grant by any Grantor to the ABL/LC Controlling Agent of a non-exclusive, royalty-free license (which will be binding on any successor or assignee of the intellectual property) to use during the ABL Priority Collateral Processing and Sale Period any Intellectual Property Collateral of such Grantor that is Term Loan Priority Collateral (or any Intellectual Property Collateral acquired by such purchaser, assignee or transferee from any Grantor, as the case may be) and (b) grants, in its capacity as a secured party (or as a purchaser, assignee or transferee, as the case may be), to the ABL/LC Controlling Agent a non-exclusive royalty-free license (which will be binding on any successor or assignee of the intellectual property) to use during the ABL Priority Collateral Processing and Sale Period, any Intellectual Property Collateral that is Term Loan Priority Collateral (or subject to such purchase, assignment or transfer, as the case may be), in each case in connection with the enforcement of any Lien held by the ABL/LC Controlling Agent upon any inventory or other ABL Priority Collateral of any Grantor and to the extent the use of such Intellectual Property Collateral is necessary or appropriate, in the good faith opinion of the ABL/LC Controlling Agent, to process, ship, produce, store, complete, supply, lease, sell (by public auction, private sale or “going out of business” or similar sale, whether in bulk, in lots or to customers in the ordinary course of business or otherwise and which sale may include augmented inventory of the same type sold in the Grantors’ business) or otherwise dispose of any such inventory in any lawful manner. In the event that any ABL/LC Secured Party has commenced and is continuing any Enforcement Action with respect to any ABL Priority Collateral or any other sale or liquidation of the ABL Priority Collateral has been commenced by any Grantor (with the consent of the ABL/LC Controlling Agent), the First Priority Representative with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral may not sell, assign or otherwise transfer the related Term Loan Priority Collateral prior to the expiration of the ABL Priority Collateral Processing and Sale Period, unless the purchaser, assignee or transferee thereof agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 7.1.

(i)such documentation contains or may contain information necessary or appropriate, in the good faith opinion of such ABL/LC Agent, to the enforcement of such ABL/LC Agent’s Liens upon any ABL/LC Priority Collateral; and

(ii)the ABL/LC Agents and the ABL/LC Secured Parties are entitled to receive and use such information under applicable law and, in doing so, will comply with all obligations imposed by law or contract in respect of the disclosure or use of such information.

(b)If an ABL/LC Agent, as First Priority Representative with respect to the ABL/LC Priority Collateral, takes actual possession of any documentation that is the property of a Grantor (whether such documentation is in the form of a writing or is stored in any data equipment or data record in the physical possession of such ABL/LC Agent), then upon request of the First Priority Representative with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral and reasonable advance notice, such ABL/LC Agent will permit the

(a)(i) In the event of any Enforcement Action taken by the ABL/LC Controlling Agent in respect of the ABL Priority Collateral (“ABL Priority Collateral Enforcement Actions”) or if the First Priority Representative with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral commences any action or proceeding with respect to any of their respective rights or remedies (including, but not limited to, any action of foreclosure), enforcement, collection or execution with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral (or a purchaser at a foreclosure sale conducted in foreclosure of a First Priority Lien or Second Priority Lien, as the case may be, on any Term Loan Priority Collateral takes actual or constructive possession of the Term Loan Priority Collateral of any Grantor) (“Term Loan Priority Collateral Enforcement Actions”), then the First Priority Representative with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral, the First Priority Secured Parties with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral, the Second Priority Representative with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral and the Second Priority Secured Parties with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral (subject to, in the case of any Term Loan Priority Collateral Enforcement Action, a prior written request by the ABL/LC Controlling Agent to the First Priority Representative with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral (the “Term Loan Priority Collateral Enforcement Action Notice”)) shall (A) cooperate with the ABL/LC Controlling Agent (and with its officers, employees, representatives and agents) at the cost and expense of the ABL Secured Parties or LC Secured Parties, as applicable (subject to the Grantors’ reimbursement and indemnity obligations with respect thereto under the Loan Documents) in its efforts to conduct ABL Priority Collateral Enforcement Actions in the ABL Priority Collateral and to finish any work-in-process and process, ship, produce, store, complete, supply, lease, sell or otherwise handle, deal with, assemble or dispose of, in any lawful manner, the ABL Priority Collateral, (B) not hinder or restrict in any respect the ABL/LC Controlling Agent from conducting ABL Priority Collateral Enforcement Actions in the ABL Priority Collateral or from finishing any work-in-process or processing, shipping, producing, storing, completing, supplying, leasing, selling or otherwise handling, dealing with, assembling or disposing of, in any lawful manner, the ABL Priority Collateral, and (C) permit the ABL/LC Controlling Agent, its employees, agents, advisers and representatives, at the cost and expense of the ABL Secured Parties or LC Secured Parties, as applicable (subject to the Grantors’ reimbursement and indemnity obligations with respect thereto under the Loan Documents), to enter upon and use the Term Loan Priority Collateral (including, without limitation, equipment, processors, computers and other machinery related to the storage or processing of records, documents or files and intellectual property), for a period commencing on (1) the date of the initial ABL Priority Collateral Enforcement Action or the date of delivery of the Term Loan Priority Collateral Enforcement Action Notice, as the case may be, and (2) ending on the date occurring 180 days thereafter (such period, as the same may be extended with the written consent of the First Priority Representative with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral as contemplated by the final sentence of this Section 7.3(a)(i), the “ABL Priority Collateral Processing and Sale Period”), for purposes of:


	
 
	
37
	
 




 



(A)assembling and storing the ABL Priority Collateral and completing the processing of and turning into finished goods any ABL Priority Collateral consisting of work-in-process;

(B)selling any or all of the ABL Priority Collateral located in or on such Term Loan Priority Collateral, whether in bulk, in lots or to customers in the ordinary course of business or otherwise;

If any stay or other order prohibiting the exercise of remedies with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral has been entered by a court of competent jurisdiction, such ABL Priority Collateral Processing and Sale Period shall be tolled during the pendency of any such stay or other order. The First Priority Representative with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral, upon request by the ABL/LC Controlling Agent, may in its sole discretion extend the ABL Priority Collateral Processing and Sale Period for an additional period of time.

(ii)During the period of actual occupation, use and/or control by the ABL/LC Secured Parties and/or the ABL/LC Controlling Agent (or their respective employees, agents, advisers and representatives) of any Term Loan Priority Collateral, the ABL/LC Controlling Agent and the ABL Secured Parties or LC Secured Parties, as applicable, shall (A) be responsible for the ordinary course third party expenses related thereto, including costs with respect to heat, light, water and electricity (but not real estate taxes) with respect to that portion of any premises used or occupied, (B) take proper and reasonable care of any Term Loan Priority Collateral that is used by the ABL/LC Controlling Agent or any other ABL/LC Secured Parties during the ABL Priority Collateral Processing and Sale Period and, at the sole costs and expense of the ABL Secured Parties or LC Secured Parties, as applicable, pay the costs, liabilities and expenses incurred by the First Priority Representative with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral as a result of any act or omission of the ABL Secured Parties or LC Secured Parties, as applicable, or their respective employees, agents and representatives in respect of their occupation, use and/or control of the Term Loan Priority Collateral pursuant to this Section 7.3, and (C) be obligated to repair at their expense any physical damage to such Term Loan Priority Collateral resulting from such occupancy, use or control or removal of ABL Priority Collateral, and to leave such Term Loan Priority Collateral in substantially the same condition as it was at the commencement of such occupancy, use or control, ordinary wear and tear excepted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the ABL/LC Secured Parties or the ABL/LC Agents have any liability to the First Priority Secured Parties with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral pursuant to this Section 7.3(a) as a result of any condition (including any environmental condition, claim or liability) on or with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral 


	
 
	
38
	
 




 



existing prior to the date of the exercise by the ABL/LC Secured Parties (or an ABL/LC Agent, as the case may be) of their rights under this Section 7.3(a) and the ABL/LC Secured Parties shall have no duty or liability to maintain the Term Loan Priority Collateral in a condition or manner better than that in which it was maintained prior to the use thereof by the ABL/LC Secured Parties, or for any diminution in the value of the Term Loan Priority Collateral that results from ordinary wear and tear resulting from the use of the Term Loan Priority Collateral by the ABL/LC Secured Parties in the manner and for the time periods specified under this Section 7.3(a). Without limiting the rights granted in this Section 7.3(a), the ABL/LC Secured Parties and the ABL/LC Agent shall cooperate with the First Priority Representative with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral, and the other First Priority Secured Parties with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral in connection with any efforts made by the First Priority Representative with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral or such First Priority Secured Parties to sell the Term Loan Priority Collateral.

(b)The First Priority Representative with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral, shall be entitled, as a condition of permitting such access and use, to demand and receive assurances reasonably satisfactory to it that the access or use requested and all activities incidental thereto:

(i)will be permitted, lawful and enforceable under applicable law and will be conducted in accordance with prudent manufacturing practices; and

(ii)will be adequately insured for damage to property and liability to persons, including property and liability insurance for the benefit of the First Priority Representative with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral, and the other First Priority Secured Parties with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral, at no cost to the First Priority Secured Parties with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral.

The First Priority Representative with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral, (x) shall provide reasonable cooperation to the ABL/LC Controlling Agent in connection with the manufacture, production, completion, handling, removal and sale of any ABL Priority Collateral by the ABL/LC Controlling Agent as provided above and (y) shall be entitled to receive, from the ABL/LC Controlling Agent, fair compensation and reimbursement for their reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with such cooperation, support and assistance to the ABL/LC Controlling Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the First Priority Representative with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral, and/or any such purchaser (or its transferee or successor) shall not otherwise be required to manufacture, produce, complete, remove, insure, protect, store, safeguard, sell or deliver any inventory subject to any First Priority Lien held by the ABL/LC Controlling Agent or to provide any support, assistance or cooperation to the ABL/LC Controlling Agent in respect thereof.

7.4First Priority Representative Assurances.  The First Priority Representative with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral, may condition its performance of any of its obligations set forth in this Section 7 upon its prior receipt (without cost to it) of such assurances as it may reasonably request to confirm that the performance of such obligation and all activities of the ABL/LC Controlling Agent or its officers, employees and agents in connection therewith or incidental thereto will not impose upon the First Priority Representative with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral (or any First Priority Secured Party with respect to such Term Loan Priority Collateral) any legal duty, legal liability, the expenses for which the ABL/LC Controlling Agent is expressly responsible pursuant to this Section 7 or risk of uninsured loss.

7.5Grantor Consent.  The Borrower and the other Grantors consent to the performance by the First Priority Representative with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral, of the obligations set forth in this Section 7 and acknowledge and agree that neither the First Priority Representative with respect to 


	
 
	
39
	
 




 



the Term Loan Priority Collateral, nor any other First Priority Secured Party with respect to such Term Loan Priority Collateral shall ever be accountable or liable (except to the extent resulting from such party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment) for any action taken or omitted by the ABL/LC Agents or any ABL/LC Secured Party or its or any of their officers, employees, agents successors or assigns in connection therewith or incidental thereto or in consequence thereof by the ABL/LC Agents or any ABL/LC Secured Party or its or any of their officers, employees, agents, successors or assigns or any other damage to or misuse or loss of any property of the Grantors as a result of any action taken or omitted by an ABL/LC Agent or its officers, employees, agents, successors or assigns.

SECTION 8.Reliance; Waivers; etc.

8.1Reliance.  The First Priority Documents and the Second Priority Documents are deemed to have been executed and delivered, and all extensions of credit thereunder are deemed to have been made or incurred, in reliance upon this Agreement. With respect to each Type of Common Collateral, the Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties, expressly waives all notice of the acceptance of and reliance on this Agreement by the other Secured Parties.

8.2No Warranties or Liability.  Each of the First Priority Representative and the Second Priority Representative with respect to each Type of Common Collateral acknowledge and agree that none of them has made any representation or warranty to each other with respect to the execution, validity, legality, completeness, collectability or enforceability of any First Priority Document or any Second Priority Document. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each of the First Priority Representative and the Second Priority Representative with respect to each Type of Common Collateral will be entitled to manage and supervise their respective extensions of credit to any Grantor in accordance with law and their usual practices, modified from time to time as they deem appropriate.

8.3No Waivers.  No right or benefit of any party hereunder shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of such party or any other party hereto or by any noncompliance by any Grantor with the terms and conditions of any of the First Priority Documents or any of the Second Priority Documents.

SECTION 9.Obligations Unconditional.

All rights, agreements and obligations of the First Priority Representative and First Priority Secured Parties and the Second Priority Representative and the Second Priority Secured Parties, in each case with respect to each Type of Common Collateral, and the Grantors hereunder, to the extent applicable, shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of:

(i)any lack of validity or enforceability of any First Priority Document or Second Priority Document;

(ii)any change in the time, place or manner of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any portion of the First Priority Obligations or Second Priority Obligations, or any amendment, waiver or other modification, whether by course of conduct or otherwise, or any Refinancing, replacement, refunding or restatement of any First Priority Document or Second Priority Document;

(iii)any exchange, release, voiding, avoidance or non-perfection of any security interest in any Common Collateral or any other collateral, or any release, amendment, waiver or other modification, whether by course of conduct or otherwise, or any Refinancing, replacement, refunding or 


	
 
	
40
	
 




 



restatement of all or any portion of the First Priority Obligations or Second Priority Obligations or any guarantee or guaranty thereof; or

(iv)any other circumstances that otherwise might constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Grantor in respect of (a) the First Priority Obligations (other than a defense that the First Priority Obligations have been paid in full) or (b) the Second Priority Obligations (other than a defense that the Second Priority Obligations have been paid in full) or of any of the First Priority Representative, Second Priority Representative or any Grantor, to the extent applicable, in respect of this Agreement.

The Borrower may from time to time, subject to any limitations contained in the ABL/LC Loan Documents and the Term Loan Documents in effect at such time, designate additional indebtedness and related obligations that are, or are to be, secured by Liens on any assets of the Grantors that would, if such Liens were granted, constitute Common Collateral as ABL/LC Secured Obligations or Term Loan Secured Obligations, by delivering to each Representative party hereto at such time a certificate of a Responsible Officer:

(i)describing the indebtedness and other obligations being designated as ABL/LC Secured Obligations or Term Loan Secured Obligations (as the case may be) and including a statement of the maximum aggregate outstanding principal amount of such indebtedness as of the date of such certificate;

(ii)in the case of ABL/LC Secured Obligations, confirming that such obligations shall be First Priority Obligations with respect to the ABL/LC Priority Collateral and Second Priority Obligations with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral;

(iv)identifying the Person that serves as the Representative with respect to such indebtedness and related obligations;

(v)certifying that the incurrence of such ABL/LC Secured Obligations or Term Loan Secured Obligations (as the case may be), the creation of the Liens securing such ABL/LC Secured Obligations or Term Loan Secured Obligations (as the case may be) and the designation of such indebtedness and related obligations as ABL/LC Secured Obligations or Term Loan Secured Obligations (as the case may be) hereunder (A) do not violate or result in a default under any provision of any ABL/LC Loan Document or Term Loan Document in effect at such time and (B) would not have the effect of increasing the principal amount of ABL/LC Secured Obligations or Term Loan Secured Obligations, as the case may be, then outstanding or permitted to be outstanding to an amount that exceeds the Maximum Obligations Amount with respect to the ABL/LC Secured Obligations or Term Loan Secured Obligations, as applicable; and

(vi)attaching a fully completed Representative Joinder Agreement executed and delivered by the Representative with respect to such ABL/LC Secured Obligations or Term Loan Secured Obligations (as the case may be).

(b)It is understood that the ABL Agent, the LC Agent and the Term Loan Agent, without the consent of any other Secured Party, may in their discretion determine that a supplemental agreement (which may take the form of an amendment and restatement of this Agreement) is necessary or appropriate to facilitate having additional indebtedness or other obligations (“Additional Debt”) of any of the Grantors become ABL/LC Secured Obligations or Term Loan Secured Obligations, as the case may be, under this Agreement, which supplemental agreement shall specify whether such Additional Debt constitutes ABL Secured Obligations or Term Loan Secured Obligations; provided that such Additional Debt is permitted to be incurred by the ABL/LC Credit Agreement and the Term Loan Agreement, and is permitted by said Agreements to be subject to the provisions of this Agreement as ABL/LC Secured Obligations or Term Loan Secured Obligations, as applicable.
