(c)   Notwithstanding the date, time, method, manner or order of grant, attachment or perfection  of any Liens securing any Series of First Lien Obligations granted on the Shared Collateral and  notwithstanding any provision of the Uniform Commercial Code of any jurisdiction, or any other applicable  law or the Secured Credit Documents or any defect or deficiencies in the Liens securing the First Lien  Obligations of any Series or any other circumstance whatsoever (but, in each case, subject to Section 1.03),  each First Lien Secured Party hereby agrees that the Liens securing each Series of First Lien Obligations  on any Shared Collateral shall be of equal priority.

(c)   Notwithstanding the equal priority of the Liens securing each Series of First Lien  Obligations with respect to any Shared Collateral, the Controlling Collateral Agent with respect thereto  (acting on the instructions of the Controlling Secured Parties) may deal with such Shared Collateral as if  such Controlling Collateral Agent had a senior Lien on such Collateral. No Non-Controlling Authorized  Representative or Non-Controlling Secured Party in respect of any Shared Collateral will contest, protest  or object to any foreclosure proceeding or action brought by the Controlling Collateral Agent, the  Applicable Authorized Representative or any Controlling Secured Party or any other exercise by the  Controlling Collateral Agent, the Applicable Authorized Representative or a Controlling Secured Party of  any rights and remedies relating to such Shared Collateral, or to cause the Controlling Collateral Agent to  do so. The foregoing shall not be construed to limit the rights and priorities of any First Lien Secured Party,  Collateral Agent or any Authorized Representative with respect to any Collateral not constituting Shared  Collateral.          (d)   Each of the First Lien Secured Parties agrees that it will not (and hereby waives any right  to) question or contest or support any other Person in contesting, in any proceeding (including any  Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding), the perfection, priority, allowability, validity, attachment or  enforceability of a Lien held by or on behalf of any of the First Lien Secured Parties in all or any part of  the Collateral, or the provisions of this Agreement; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall be  construed to prevent or impair the rights of any Collateral Agent or any Authorized Representative to  enforce this Agreement.          SECTION 2.04    No Interference; Payment Over.         (a)    Each First Lien Secured Party agrees that (i) it will not challenge or question in any  proceeding the validity or enforceability of any First Lien Obligations of any Series or any First Lien  Security Document or the validity, attachment, perfection or priority of any Lien under any First Lien  Security Document or the validity or enforceability of the priorities, rights or duties established by or other  provisions of this Agreement; (ii) it will not take or cause to be taken any action the purpose or intent of  which is, or could be, to interfere, hinder or delay, in any manner, whether by judicial proceedings or  otherwise, any sale, transfer or other disposition of any Shared Collateral by the Controlling Collateral    -9-  VP/#40336866.2  





 






   Agent, (iii) except as provided in Section 2.03, it shall have no right to (A) direct the Controlling Collateral  Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party to exercise, and shall not exercise, any right, remedy or power  with respect to any Shared Collateral (including pursuant to any intercreditor agreement) or (B) consent to  the exercise by the Controlling Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party of any right, remedy  or power with respect to any Shared Collateral, (iv) it will not institute any suit or assert in any suit,  bankruptcy, insolvency or other proceeding any claim against the Controlling Collateral Agent or any other  First Lien Secured Party seeking damages from or other relief by way of specific performance, instructions  or otherwise with respect to any Shared Collateral, and none of the Controlling Collateral Agent, any  Applicable Authorized Representative or any other First Lien Secured Party shall be liable for any action  taken or omitted to be taken by the Controlling Collateral Agent, such Applicable Authorized  Representative or other First Lien Secured Party with respect to any Shared Collateral in accordance with  the provisions of this Agreement, (v) if not the Controlling Collateral Agent, it will not seek, and hereby  waives any right, to have any Shared Collateral or any part thereof marshaled upon any foreclosure or other  disposition of such Shared Collateral and (vi) it will not attempt, directly or indirectly, whether by judicial  proceedings or otherwise, to challenge the enforceability of any provision of this Agreement; provided that  nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of any of the Controlling  Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party to enforce this Agreement.          (b)   Each First Lien Secured Party hereby agrees that if it shall obtain possession of any Shared  Collateral or shall realize any Proceeds or payment in respect of any such Shared Collateral, pursuant to  any First Lien Security Document or by the exercise of any rights available to it under applicable law or in  any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or through any other exercise of remedies (including pursuant to  any intercreditor agreement), at any time prior to the Discharge of each Series of First Lien Obligations,  then it shall hold such Shared Collateral, Proceeds or payment in trust for the other First Lien Secured  Parties having a security interest in such Shared Collateral and promptly transfer such Shared Collateral,  Proceeds or payment, as the case may be, to the Controlling Collateral Agent, to be distributed in accordance  with the provisions of Section 2.01 hereof.         SECTION 2.05     Automatic Release of Liens; Amendments to First Lien Security Documents.         (a)    If, at any time the Controlling Collateral Agent forecloses upon or otherwise exercises  remedies against any Shared Collateral resulting in a sale or disposition thereof, then (whether or not any  Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding is pending at the time) the Liens in favor of each other Collateral  Agent for the benefit of each Series of First Lien Secured Parties upon such Shared Collateral will  automatically be released and discharged as and when, but only to the extent, such Liens of the Controlling  Collateral Agent on such Shared Collateral are released and discharged; provided that any Proceeds of any  Shared Collateral realized therefrom shall be allocated and applied pursuant to Section 2.01.         (b)    Each Collateral Agent and Authorized Representative agrees to execute and deliver (at the  sole cost and expense of the Grantors) all such authorizations and other instruments as shall reasonably be  requested by the Controlling Collateral Agent to evidence and confirm any release of Shared Collateral  provided for in this Section.          SECTION 2.06    Certain Agreements with Respect to Bankruptcy or Insolvency Proceedings.         (a)    This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding the commencement  of any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or any other Bankruptcy Law by or against the Borrower,  any Grantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries. The parties hereto acknowledge that the provisions of  this Agreement are intended to be and shall be enforceable as contemplated by Section 510(a) of the  Bankruptcy Code.     -10-  VP/#40336866.2  





 






         (b)    If the Borrower and/or any other Grantor shall become subject to a case (a “Bankruptcy  Case”) under the Bankruptcy Law and shall, as debtor(s)-in-possession, move for approval of financing  (the “DIP Financing”) to be provided by one or more lenders (the “DIP Lenders”) under Section 364 of the  Bankruptcy Code or any equivalent provision of any other Bankruptcy Law or the use of cash collateral  under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or any equivalent provision of any other Bankruptcy Law, each  First Lien Secured Party (other than any Controlling Secured Party or the Authorized Representative of any  Controlling Secured Party) agrees that it will raise no objection to any such financing or to the Liens on the  Shared Collateral securing the same (“DIP Financing Liens”) or to any use of cash collateral that constitutes  Shared Collateral, unless the Controlling Collateral Agent (acting on the instructions of the Controlling  Secured Parties) shall then oppose or object to such DIP Financing or such DIP Financing Liens or use of  cash collateral (and (i) to the extent that such DIP Financing Liens are senior to the Liens on any such  Shared Collateral for the benefit of the Controlling Secured Parties, each Non-Controlling Secured Party  will subordinate its Liens with respect to such Shared Collateral on the same terms as the Liens of the  Controlling Secured Parties (other than any Liens of any First Lien Secured Parties constituting DIP  Financing Liens) are subordinated thereto, and (ii) to the extent that such DIP Financing Liens rank pari  passu with the Liens on any such Shared Collateral granted to secure the First Lien Obligations of the  Controlling Secured Parties, each Non-Controlling Secured Party will confirm the priorities with respect to  such Shared Collateral as set forth herein), in each case so long as (A) the First Lien Secured Parties of each  Series retain the benefit of their Liens on all such Shared Collateral pledged to the DIP Lenders, including  proceeds thereof arising after the commencement of such proceeding, with the same priority vis-a-vis all  the other First Lien Secured Parties (other than any Liens of the First Lien Secured Parties constituting DIP  Financing Liens) as existed prior to the commencement of the Bankruptcy Case, (B) the First Lien Secured  Parties of each Series are granted Liens on any additional collateral pledged to any First Lien Secured  Parties as adequate protection or otherwise in connection with such DIP Financing or use of cash collateral  (in each case, except to the extent a Lien on additional collateral is granted to one Series in consideration  of Collateral of such Series that is not Shared Collateral for a Series that does not receive a Lien on such  additional collateral), with the same priority vis-a-vis the First Lien Secured Parties as set forth in this  Agreement, (C) if any amount of such DIP Financing or cash collateral is applied to repay any of the First  Lien Obligations, such amount is applied pursuant to Section 2.01 (in each case, except to the extent a  payment is made to one Series in consideration of Collateral of such Series that is not Shared Collateral for  a Series that does not receive such payment), and (D) if any First Lien Secured Parties are granted adequate  protection, including in the form of periodic payments, in connection with such DIP Financing or use of  cash collateral, the proceeds of such adequate protection are applied pursuant to Section 2.01 (in each case,  except to the extent such adequate protection is granted to one Series in consideration of Collateral of such  Series that is not Shared Collateral for a Series that does not receive such adequate protection); provided  that the First Lien Secured Parties of each Series shall have a right to object to the grant of a Lien to secure  the DIP Financing over any Collateral subject to Liens in favor of the First Lien Secured Parties of such  Series or its Authorized Representative that shall not constitute Shared Collateral; and provided, further,  that the First Lien Secured Parties receiving adequate protection shall not object to any other First Lien  Secured Party receiving adequate protection comparable to any adequate protection granted to such First  Lien Secured Parties (other than as a provider of DIP Financing) in connection with a DIP Financing or use  of cash collateral.          SECTION 2.07    Reinstatement. In the event that any of the First Lien Obligations shall be paid  in full and such payment or any part thereof shall subsequently, for whatever reason (including an order or  judgment for disgorgement of a preference under the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar law, or the settlement  of any claim in respect thereof), be required to be returned or repaid, the terms and conditions of this Article  II shall be fully applicable thereto until all such First Lien Obligations shall again have been paid in full in  cash.     -11-  VP/#40336866.2  





 






         SECTION 2.08     Insurance. As between the First Lien Secured Parties, the Controlling  Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Controlling Secured Parties) shall have the right to adjust or  settle any insurance policy or claim covering or constituting Shared Collateral in the event of any loss  thereunder and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding affecting the  Shared Collateral.          SECTION 2.09    Refinancings. The First Lien Obligations of any Series may be Refinanced, in  whole or in part, in each case, without notice to, or the consent (except to the extent a consent is otherwise  required to permit the Refinancing transaction under any Secured Credit Document) of any First Lien  Secured Party of any other Series, all without affecting the priorities provided for herein or the other  provisions hereof; provided that the Authorized Representative and Collateral Agent of the holders of any  such Refinancing indebtedness shall have executed a Joinder Agreement on behalf of the holders of such  Refinancing indebtedness.          SECTION 2.10    Possessory Collateral Agent as Gratuitous Bailee for Perfection.         (a)    Possessory Collateral shall be delivered to the Controlling Collateral Agent and the  Controlling Collateral Agent agrees to hold all Possessory Collateral that is in its possession or control (or  in the possession or control of its agents or bailees) as gratuitous bailee (such bailment being intended,  among other things, to satisfy the requirements of Section 8-301(a)(2) and 9-313(c) of the Uniform  Commercial Code, to the extent applicable) for the benefit of each other First Lien Secured Party for which  such Possessory Collateral is Shared Collateral and any assignee solely for the purpose of perfecting the  security interest granted in such Possessory Collateral, if any, pursuant to the applicable First Lien Security  Documents, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.10; provided that at any time  a Collateral Agent ceases to be Controlling Collateral Agent with respect to any Possessory Collateral, such  former Controlling Collateral Agent shall, at the request of the new Controlling Collateral Agent, promptly  deliver all such Possessory Collateral to such new Controlling Collateral Agent together with any necessary  endorsements (or otherwise allow such new Controlling Collateral Agent to obtain control of such  Possessory Collateral).          (b)   The Controlling Collateral Agent agrees to hold any Shared Collateral constituting  Possessory Collateral, from time to time in its possession, as gratuitous bailee (such bailment being  intended, among other things, to satisfy the requirements of Section 8-301(a)(2) and 9-313(c) of the  Uniform Commercial Code, to the extent applicable) for the benefit of each other First Lien Secured Party  and any assignee, solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted in such Possessory  Collateral, if any, pursuant to the applicable First Lien Security Documents, in each case, subject to the  terms and conditions of this Section 2.10.         (c)    The duties or responsibilities of each Collateral Agent under this Section 2.10 shall be  limited solely to holding any Shared Collateral constituting Possessory Collateral as gratuitous bailee (such  bailment being intended, among other things, to satisfy the requirements of Section 8-301(a)(2) and 9- 313(c) of the Uniform Commercial Code, to the extent applicable) for the benefit of each other First Lien  Secured Party for purposes of perfecting the Lien held by such First Lien Secured Parties thereon.          SECTION 2.11    Amendments to Security Documents.         (a)    Without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, each Additional First Lien  Secured Party agrees that no Additional First Lien Security Document may be amended, restated,  supplemented or otherwise modified or entered into to the extent such amendment, restatement, supplement  or modification, or the terms of any new Additional First Lien Security Document would contravene any  of the terms of this Agreement.    -12-  VP/#40336866.2  





 






         (b)    Without the prior written consent of the Additional First Lien Collateral Agent (given in  accordance with an instruction obtained under the Indenture), the Administrative Agent agrees that no  Credit Agreement Collateral Document may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified or  entered into to the extent such amendment, restatement, supplement or modification, or the terms of any  new Credit Agreement Collateral Document would contravene any of the terms of this Agreement.          (c)   In making determinations required by this Section 2.11, the Administrative Agent and each  Collateral Agent may conclusively rely on a certificate of an Authorized Officer of the Borrower.                                         ARTICLE III                          Existence and Amounts of Liens and Obligations         SECTION 3.01     Determinations with Respect to Amounts of Liens and Obligations. Whenever  a Collateral Agent or any Authorized Representative shall be required, in connection with the exercise of  its rights or the performance of its obligations hereunder, to determine the existence or amount of any First  Lien Obligations of any Series, or the Shared Collateral subject to any Lien securing the First Lien  Obligations of any Series, it may request that such information be furnished to it in writing by each other  Authorized Representative or Collateral Agent and shall be entitled to make such determination or not make  any determination on the basis of the information so furnished; provided, however, that if an Authorized  Representative or a Collateral Agent shall fail or refuse reasonably promptly to provide the requested  information, the requesting Collateral Agent or Authorized Representative shall be entitled to make any  such determination by such method as it may, in the exercise of its good faith judgment, determine,  including by reliance upon a certificate of the Borrower. Each Collateral Agent and each Authorized  Representative may rely conclusively, and shall be fully protected in so relying, on any determination made  by it in accordance with the provisions of the preceding sentence (or as otherwise directed by a court of  competent jurisdiction) and shall have no liability to any Grantor, any First Lien Secured Party or any other  Person as a result of such determination.                                         ARTICLE IV                                 The Controlling Collateral Agent         SECTION 4.01     Authority.         (a)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, nothing herein shall be construed  to impose any fiduciary or other duty on any Controlling Collateral Agent to any Non-Controlling Secured  Party or give any Non-Controlling Secured Party the right to direct any Controlling Collateral Agent, except  that each Controlling Collateral Agent shall be obligated to distribute Proceeds of any Shared Collateral in  accordance with Section 2.01 hereof.         (b)    In furtherance of the foregoing, each Non-Controlling Secured Party acknowledges and  agrees that the Controlling Collateral Agent shall be entitled, for the benefit of the First Lien Secured  Parties, to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of or deal with any Shared Collateral as provided herein and  in the First Lien Security Documents, as applicable, pursuant to which the Controlling Collateral Agent is  the collateral agent for such Shared Collateral, without regard to any rights to which the Non-Controlling  Secured Parties would otherwise be entitled as a result of the First Lien Obligations held by such Non- Controlling Secured Parties. Without limiting the foregoing, each Non-Controlling Secured Party agrees  that none of the Controlling Collateral Agent, the Applicable Authorized Representative or any other First  Lien Secured Party shall have any duty or obligation first to marshal or realize upon any type of Shared  Collateral (or any other Collateral securing any of the First Lien Obligations), or to sell, dispose of or    -13-  VP/#40336866.2  





 






   otherwise liquidate all or any portion of such Shared Collateral (or any other Collateral securing any First  Lien Obligations), in any manner that would maximize the return to the Non-Controlling Secured Parties,  notwithstanding that the order and timing of any such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation may affect  the amount of Proceeds actually received by the Non-Controlling Secured Parties from such realization,  sale, disposition or liquidation. Each of the First Lien Secured Parties waives any claim it may now or  hereafter have against any Collateral Agent or the Authorized Representative of any other Series of First  Lien Obligations or any other First Lien Secured Party of any other Series arising out of (i) any actions in  accordance with this Agreement which any Collateral Agent, Authorized Representative or the First Lien  Secured Parties take or omit to take (including, actions with respect to the creation, perfection or  continuation of Liens on any Collateral, actions with respect to the foreclosure upon, sale, release or  depreciation of, or failure to realize upon, any of the Collateral and actions with respect to the collection of  any claim for all or any part of the First Lien Obligations from any account debtor, guarantor or any other  party) in accordance with the First Lien Security Documents or any other agreement related thereto or to  the collection of the First Lien Obligations or the valuation, use, protection or release of any security for  the First Lien Obligations, (ii) any election in accordance with this Agreement by any Applicable  Authorized Representative or any holders of First Lien Obligations, in any proceeding instituted under the  Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or (iii) subject to Section  2.06, any borrowing by, or grant of a security interest or administrative expense priority under Section 364  of the Bankruptcy Code or any equivalent provision of any other Bankruptcy Law, by the Borrower or any  of their Subsidiaries, as debtor-in-possession. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the  Controlling Collateral Agent shall not accept any Shared Collateral in full or partial satisfaction of any First  Lien Obligations pursuant to Section 9-620 of the Uniform Commercial Code of any jurisdiction, without  the consent of each Authorized Representative representing holders of First Lien Obligations for whom  such Collateral constitutes Shared Collateral.

(a)    No failure or delay on the part of any party hereto in exercising any right or power  hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or  power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other  or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the parties  hereto are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No  waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any party therefrom shall in any  event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by Section 5.02(b), and then such waiver or consent  shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice or demand  on any party hereto in any case shall entitle such party to any other or further notice or demand in similar  or other circumstances.          (b)   Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be terminated, waived, amended or  modified (other than pursuant to any Joinder Agreement) except pursuant to an agreement or agreements  in writing entered into by each Authorized Representative and each Collateral Agent.          (c)   Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent of any First Lien Secured Party, any  Authorized Representative may become a party hereto by execution and delivery of a Joinder Agreement  in accordance with Section 5.12 and upon such execution and delivery, such Authorized Representative  and the Additional First Lien Secured Parties and Additional First Lien Obligations of the Series for which  such Authorized Representative is acting shall be subject to the terms hereof.          (d)   Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with any Refinancing of First Lien  Obligations of any Series, or the incurrence of Additional First Lien Obligations of any Series, the Collateral  Agents and the Authorized Representatives then party hereto shall enter (and are hereby authorized to enter  without the consent of any other First Lien Secured Party or any Loan Party), at the request of any Collateral  Agent or any Authorized Representative, into such amendments or modifications of this Agreement as are  reasonably necessary to reflect such Refinancing or such incurrence and are reasonably satisfactory to each  such Collateral Agent and each such Authorized Representative, provided that any Collateral Agent or  Authorized Representative may condition its execution and delivery of any such amendment or  modification on a receipt of a certificate from an Authorized Officer of the Borrower to the effect that such  Refinancing or incurrence is permitted by the then existing Secured Credit Documents.          (e)   In executing any amendment hereto, the First Lien Notes Collateral Agent shall be fully  protected in relying on for all purposes the opinion and certificate to which it is entitled under Article IX of  the Indenture.          SECTION 5.03    Parties in Interest. This Agreement and the rights and benefits hereof shall  inure to the benefit of each of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and shall inure  to the benefit of and bind each of the First Lien Secured Parties.
