 SECTION 2. Lien Priorities. 

2.1 Subordination of Liens. 

(a) Any and all Second Priority Liens now existing or hereafter created or arising, regardless of how acquired, whether by
grant, statute, operation of law, subrogation or otherwise, are expressly junior in priority, operation and effect to any and all First Priority Liens now existing or hereafter created or arising, notwithstanding (i) anything to the contrary
contained in any agreement or filing to which any Second Priority Secured Party may now or hereafter be a party, and regardless of the time, order or method of grant, attachment, recording or perfection of any financing statements or other security
interests, assignments, pledges, deeds, mortgages and other liens, charges or encumbrances or any defect or deficiency or alleged defect or deficiency in any of the foregoing, (ii) any provision of the Uniform Commercial Code or any applicable
law or any First Priority Document or Second Priority Document or any other circumstance whatsoever and (iii) the fact that any such First Priority Liens are (x) subordinated to any Lien securing any obligation of any Grantor other than
the Second Priority Obligations or (y) otherwise subordinated, voided, avoided, invalidated or lapsed. 
 (b) No Secured
Party shall object to or contest, or support any other Person in contesting or objecting to, in any proceeding (including without limitation, any Insolvency Proceeding), the validity, extent, perfection, priority or enforceability of any security
interest in the ABL Priority Collateral granted to any other Secured Party. No Second Priority Secured Party shall take, or cause to be taken, any action the purpose of which is to make any Second Priority Lien, as applicable, pari passu with
or senior to the First Priority Lien. It is understood that nothing in this Section 2.1(b) is intended to prohibit any Second Priority Secured Party from exercising any rights expressly granted to it under this Agreement. 

(c) Notwithstanding any failure by any Secured Party to perfect any or all of its security interests in the ABL Priority
Collateral or any avoidance, invalidation or subordination by any third party or court of competent jurisdiction of any or all of the security interests in the ABL Priority Collateral granted to such Secured Party, the priority and rights as among
the Secured Parties with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral shall be as set forth herein. 
 2.2 Nature of Obligations. Each
Secured Party acknowledges that certain of the Secured Obligations are revolving in nature and that the amount thereof that may be outstanding at any time or from time to time may be increased or reduced and subsequently reborrowed, and that the
terms of such Secured Obligations may be modified, extended or amended from time to time, and that the aggregate amount of the Secured Obligations may be increased, replaced or Refinanced, in each event, without notice to or consent by the Secured
Parties (except to the extent required under Section 6) and without affecting the provisions hereof. The lien priorities provided in Section 2.1 shall not be altered or otherwise affected by any such amendment, modification, supplement,
extension, repayment, reborrowing, increase, replacement, renewal, restatement or Refinancing of or waiver, consent or accommodation with respect to any Secured Obligations, or any portion thereof. 

2.3 Agreements Regarding Actions to Perfect Liens. 

(a) Each Second Priority Representative agrees, on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties, that UCC-1
financing statements, filed or recorded by or on behalf of such Second Priority Representative or any other Second Priority Secured Party (or any agent or other representative thereof) in respect of ABL Priority Collateral shall be in form
reasonably satisfactory to the First Priority Representative. 

  
 10 








 (b) The First Priority Representative hereby acknowledges that, to the extent
that it holds, or a third party holds on its behalf, physical possession of or “control” (as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code) over any ABL Priority Collateral pursuant to the First Priority Documents, such possession or control is
also for the benefit of each Second Priority Representative and the other Second Priority Secured Parties, but solely as gratuitous bailee to the extent required to perfect their security interest in such ABL Priority Collateral. Nothing in the
preceding sentence shall be construed to impose any duty on the First Priority Representative (or any third party acting on its behalf) or provide any Second Priority Representative or any other Second Priority Secured Party with any rights with
respect to such ABL Priority Collateral beyond those specified in this Agreement and the Second Priority Documents; provided that subsequent to the occurrence of the First Priority Obligations Payment Date in each case at the Borrower’s
sole cost and expense, (i) the First Priority Representative shall (x) deliver to the Term Loan/Notes Representative (or, if no Term Loan/Notes Secured Obligations are then outstanding, the Junior Priority Representative), and each Grantor
hereby directs such First Priority Representative to so deliver, any stock certificates or promissory notes evidencing or constituting ABL Priority Collateral in its possession or control together with any necessary endorsements to the extent
required by the Second Priority Documents or (y) direct and deliver the ABL Priority Collateral as a court of competent jurisdiction otherwise directs and (ii) in the case of any ABL Priority Collateral consisting of deposit accounts or
securities accounts as to which the First Priority Representative has control pursuant to an account control agreement, the First Priority Representative and the applicable Grantor shall take such actions, if any, as are required to cause control
over such ABL Priority Collateral to become vested in the Term Loan/Notes Representative (or, if no Term Loan/Notes Secured Obligations are then outstanding, the Junior Priority Representative); provided further that the provisions of this
Agreement are intended solely to govern the respective Lien priorities as between the First Priority Secured Parties, and the Second Priority Secured Parties and shall not impose on the First Priority Secured Parties any obligations in respect of
the disposition of any ABL Priority Collateral (or any proceeds thereof) that would conflict with prior perfected Liens or any claims thereon in favor of any other Person that is not a Secured Party. 

(c) Other than as set forth in the first proviso to the second sentence of the immediately preceding paragraph, any First
Priority Secured Party with physical possession of or control over ABL Priority Collateral shall not have any duty or liability to protect or preserve any rights pertaining to any of such ABL Priority Collateral and, except for gross negligence or
willful misconduct as determined pursuant to 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 ABL Priority Collateral. 
 2.4 No New Liens. (a) 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 consisting of or constituting ABL Priority Collateral 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 (x) nothing contained in this Section 2.4 shall preclude (i) the First Priority Secured Parties from being granted Adequate Protection Liens on
ABL Priority Collateral regardless of whether any Adequate Protection Liens thereon 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 (y) this Section 2.4 shall be inapplicable to any Lien securing Secured Supply Chain Obligations, Secured Swap Obligations, Secured Treasury Services Obligations and/or Letters of Credit (including the cash
collateralization thereof), and not any other Secured Obligations. If any Secured Party shall (nonetheless and in breach hereof) acquire or hold any Lien on any assets of any Grantor constituting ABL Priority Collateral securing any Secured
Obligations, 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 

  
 11 








 
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 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).

 (b) Subject to Section 5.4(b), the ABL Secured Parties agree that they will not take or accept any Lien on any Term Loan/Notes
Exclusive Collateral unless either (x) this Agreement is first amended in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Second Priority Representatives to provide the Second Priority Secured Parties with customary protections with respect
to the Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral reflecting the senior nature of the Second Priority Representatives’ Liens in the Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral relative to the ABL Agent’s Liens in the Term Loan/Notes Exclusive
Collateral or (y) the parties hereto otherwise enter into an intercreditor agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Second Priority Representatives to provide the Second Priority Secured Parties with customary protections
with respect to the Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral reflecting the senior nature of the Second Priority Representatives’ Liens in the Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral relative to the ABL Agent’s Liens in the Term Loan/Notes
Exclusive Collateral. 
 SECTION 3. Enforcement Rights. 

3.1 Exclusive Enforcement. 

(a) 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 the ABL Priority Collateral, without any consultation with or consent
of any Second Priority Secured Party. 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 the ABL Priority Collateral in such order and manner as they may determine in their sole discretion. 

(b) Notwithstanding Section 3.1(a), the Term Loan/Notes Representative and the other Term Loan Notes Secured Parties (or,
if no Term Loan/Notes Secured Obligations are then outstanding, the Junior Priority Representative and the other Junior Priority Secured Parties) may enforce any of their rights and exercise any of their remedies with respect to the ABL Priority
Collateral after a period of 180 days has elapsed since the date on which the Term Loan/Notes Representative (or, if no Term Loan/Notes Secured Obligations are then outstanding, the Junior 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 any Term Loan/Notes Document (or, if no Term Loan/Notes Secured Obligations are then outstanding, the Junior Priority Documents)
(the “Second Priority Standstill Period”); provided, that notwithstanding the expiration of the Second Priority Standstill Period or anything to the contrary herein in no event shall any Second Priority Representatives or any
other Second Priority Secured Party enforce or exercise any rights or remedies with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral if the First Priority Representative or any other First Priority Secured Party shall have commenced, and shall be diligently
pursuing the enforcement or exercise of any rights or remedies with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral; provided further that the Second Priority Standstill Period shall be stayed, tolled and deemed not to have expired during the pendency
of any Insolvency Proceeding or during any period of time for which any stay or other order prohibiting the exercise of remedies with respect to any ABL Priority Collateral has been entered by a court of competent jurisdiction and is in effect. 


  
 12 








 (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, any Second Priority Secured Party may
file a proof of claim or statement of interest with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral; 
 (ii) the Second Priority
Secured Parties may take any action (solely to the extent not adverse to the prior Liens securing the First Priority Obligations or the rights of the First Priority Representative or the First Priority Secured Parties to exercise remedies in respect
thereof) in order to preserve, perfect or protect (but not enforce) the Second Priority Liens; 
 (iii) the Second Priority
Secured Parties 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, if any, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; 
 (iv) the
Second Priority Secured Parties shall be entitled to file any pleadings, objections, motions or agreements which assert rights or interests available to unsecured creditors of the Grantors or secured creditors of the Grantors with respect to the
Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral arising under either any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law or applicable non-bankruptcy law, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; 

(v) the Second Priority Secured Parties shall be entitled to exercise any of their rights or remedies (A) under the Second
Priority Documents other than with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral subject to the other provisions of this Agreement and (B) with respect to any of the ABL Priority Collateral, after the termination of the Second Priority Standstill
Period to the extent permitted by Section 3.1(b); and 
 (vi) the Second Priority Secured Parties may make a bid on all
or any portion of the ABL Priority Collateral in any bankruptcy or non-bankruptcy auction or foreclosure proceeding or action; provided that the cash portion of any such bid is sufficient to result in a First Priority Obligations Payment Date. 

3.2 Standstill and Waivers. 

(a) Each Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other applicable 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, it 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 the ABL Priority 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) Each Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other applicable 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, it has no right 

  
 13 








 
to (x) direct the First Priority Representative or any other First Priority Secured Party to take any Enforcement Action with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral or (y) 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 ABL Priority 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) Each Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other applicable 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, it will not institute any suit or other proceeding or assert in any suit, Insolvency Proceeding
or other proceeding 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 the ABL Priority Collateral or
pursuant to the First Priority Documents; 
 (d) Each Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other
applicable 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, it will not take any Enforcement Action
with respect to such ABL Priority Collateral, except as otherwise permitted under Section 3.1(b); 
 (e) Each Second
Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other applicable 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, it 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, the ABL Priority Collateral, in each case, except as otherwise permitted under Section 3.1(b); and 

(f) Each Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other applicable 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, it will not seek, and hereby waive any right, to have the ABL Priority Collateral or any part
thereof marshaled upon any foreclosure or other disposition of the ABL Priority Collateral, except as otherwise permitted under Section 3.1(b). 

3.3 Judgment 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 or secured creditor with respect to the Term
Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral against the relevant Grantors in accordance with applicable law; provided that with respect to such rights as an unsecured creditor such exercise of rights or remedies is not a violation of 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) to the same extent as all other Second Priority Liens (created pursuant to the
Second Priority Documents) subject to this Agreement. Nothing in this Section 3.3 shall limit the rights, remedies and actions of the Term Loan/Notes Secured Parties with respect to Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral. 

  
 14 








 3.4 Cooperation. Each Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other
applicable Second Priority Secured Parties, agrees it shall take such actions with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral 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. 
 3.5 No 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. 
 3.6
Actions Upon Breach. 
 (a) If any Second Priority Secured Party commences or participates in any action or proceeding
against any Grantor in respect of the ABL Priority 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. 

(b) If any Second Priority Secured Party (or any agent or other representative thereof) in any way takes, attempts to take or
threatens to take any action with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral (including, without limitation, any attempt to enforce any remedy on the ABL Priority Collateral) in violation of this Agreement, or fails to take any action required by this
Agreement, any First Priority Secured Party (in its or their own name or in the name of any Grantor) may obtain relief against such Second Priority Secured Party (or agent or other representative thereof) by injunction, specific performance and/or
other appropriate equitable relief, it being understood and agreed by each Second Priority Representative on behalf of each other Second Priority Secured Party that (i) the damages of the First Priority Secured Parties from its actions may at
that time be difficult to ascertain and may be irreparable and (ii) each Second Priority Secured Party waives any defense that any Grantor and/or the First Priority Secured Parties cannot demonstrate damage and/or can be made whole by the
awarding of damages. 
 SECTION 4. Application of Proceeds of ABL Priority Collateral; Dispositions and Releases of ABL Priority
Collateral; Inspection and Insurance. 
 4.1 Application of Proceeds; Turnover Provisions. 

(a) All proceeds of ABL Priority Collateral (including any interest earned thereon) resulting from any Enforcement Action, and
whether or not pursuant to an Insolvency Proceeding, shall be distributed as follows: 
 first, to the First Priority Representative
to be applied in accordance with the then-extant First Priority Documents until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date has occurred; 

second, to the Term Loan/Notes Representative (or, if no Term Loan/Notes Secured Obligations are then outstanding, to the Junior
Priority Representative) to be applied in accordance with the then-extant Second Priority Documents until the Second Priority Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full; and 

finally, to the relevant Grantor, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct. 

  
 15 








 (b) Until the occurrence of the First Priority Obligations Payment Date, no
Second Priority Secured Party may accept any ABL Priority Collateral, including any ABL Priority Collateral constituting proceeds (but excluding any Specified Term Loan/Notes Collateral in existence on the date hereof in which, as of the date
hereof, the First Priority Lien thereon shall not have been perfected), in satisfaction, in whole or in part, of the Second Priority Secured Obligations in violation of Sections 4.1(a). Any ABL Priority Collateral, including any ABL Priority
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
to be applied in accordance with Section 4.1(a) in the same form as received, with any endorsements reasonably requested by the First Priority Representative, and each Second Priority Secured Party hereby authorizes the First Priority
Representative to make any such endorsements as agent for the Second Priority Representatives (which authorization, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable). Upon the turnover of such ABL Priority Collateral as contemplated by the immediately
preceding sentence, the Second Priority Obligations purported to be satisfied by the payment of such ABL Priority Collateral shall be immediately reinstated in full as though such payment had never occurred. 

4.2 Releases of Lien. 

(a) Upon any release, sale or disposition of any ABL Priority Collateral that results in the release of the First Priority Lien
on such ABL Priority Collateral and that is (i) permitted pursuant to the terms of the First Priority Documents or (ii) effected pursuant to an Enforcement Action, the Second Priority Lien on such ABL Priority Collateral (but not on any
proceeds of such ABL Priority Collateral not required to be paid to the First Priority Secured Parties) shall be automatically and unconditionally released. 

(b) Until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date, each Second Priority Representative shall promptly execute and deliver
such release documents and instruments and shall take such further actions as the First Priority Representative shall reasonably request to evidence any release of the Second Priority Liens described in Section 4.2(a). Each 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 such Second Priority Representative and in the name of such Second Priority Representative or in the First Priority Representative’s own name; provided that such power of attorney 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 to accomplish the purposes of Section 4.2(a), including the filing and recording by the First Priority Representative of any financing statements, endorsements, assignments, releases or other documents or instruments of transfer
(which appointment, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable). 
 4.3 Inspection Rights and Insurance. 

(a) 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 any ABL Priority Collateral. 
 (b) Until the
First Priority Obligations Payment Date, the First Priority Representative will have the sole and exclusive right, subject to the rights of the Grantors under the applicable First Priority Documents, (i) to be named as additional insured and
loss payee under any insurance policies 

  
 16 








 
maintained from time to time by any Grantor with respect to ABL Priority Collateral (except that, if the applicable insurer permits, any Second Priority Representative shall have the right to be
named as an additional insured so long as its second lien status is identified in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the First Priority Representative); (ii) to adjust or settle any insurance policy or claim covering ABL Priority Collateral in
the event of any loss thereunder; and (iii) to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding affecting ABL Priority Collateral. 

4.4 Tracing and Allocation of Proceeds. 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/Notes Exclusive Collateral (including, without limitation, by virtue
of the sale or other disposition of a division or line of business or any capital stock, partnership, limited liability company interests or other equity interests of any Grantor (collectively, “Equity Interests”)) (it being understood and
agreed that if a Grantor or a Subsidiary of 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 4.4), the portion of such Proceeds that shall be allocated as (x) proceeds of Accounts shall be an amount equal to the face amount of such Accounts and (y) proceeds of Inventory
shall be an amount equal to the greater of the book value of such Inventory and the most recent appraised value thereof. For all purposes of this Agreement, ABL Priority Collateral and Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral shall include the proceeds
thereof received directly from such ABL Priority Collateral or Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral including the sale or other disposition thereof; provided that any property or asset purchased by any Grantor (whether purchased with proceeds
of ABL Priority Collateral or Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral), shall not be traced and any such property or assets will either be ABL Priority Collateral or Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral based on the nature of such collateral and not
the source of funds or other proceeds used to purchase such property or asset; provided further that the foregoing shall not apply to (i) any property or asset purchased by any Grantor after the earlier of a Default (as defined in the
ABL Credit Agreement) or a Default (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement or Indenture) or (ii) Accounts that are the identifiable proceeds of the sale or other disposition of Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral or cash constituting
identifiable proceeds of property that was Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral when such cash proceeds arose held in Deposit Accounts (other than the Concentration Account and the Control Accounts) that contain solely such cash proceeds. The
relative priorities of the First Priority Secured Parties and the Second Priority Secured Parties shall be determined in accordance with the preceding sentence. 

SECTION 5. Insolvency Proceedings. 

5.1 Filing of Motions. No Secured Party shall, in or in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise, 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 held
by any other Secured Party and no Secured Party shall support any other Person doing any of the foregoing. No Second Priority Secured Party shall file any motion, take any position in any proceeding, or take any other action in respect of the ABL
Priority Collateral except as explicitly permitted under this Agreement. 
 5.2 Financing Matters. 

(a) If any Grantor becomes subject to any Insolvency Proceeding, and if the First Priority Representative consents (or does not
object) to the use of ABL Priority Collateral (for the avoidance of doubt, including but not limited to the use of any ABL Priority Collateral that is cash collateral) by any Grantor during any Insolvency Proceeding or provides financing to any
Grantor under the Bankruptcy 

  
 17 








 
Code (“DIP Financing”) secured by ABL Priority Collateral or consents (or does not object) to the provision of DIP Financing to any Grantor by any third party (any such DIP
Financing, whether provided by the First Priority Secured Parties (or any of them) or any third party, being referred to herein as an “ABL Priority DIP Financing”), then, so long as any Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral securing
the DIP Financing are senior to or pari passu with the Liens securing the ABL Secured Obligations (or such DIP Financing refinances the ABL Secured Obligations), each Second Priority Representative agrees, on behalf of itself and the other
applicable Second Priority Secured Parties, that each such Second Priority 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 ABL Priority Collateral
or to such ABL Priority DIP Financing, (b) shall only request or accept adequate protection in connection with the use of ABL Priority Collateral or such ABL Priority DIP Financing as permitted by Section 5.4(a) 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 ABL Priority Collateral securing such ABL Priority DIP Financing on the
same terms and conditions as the First Priority Liens on ABL Priority Collateral are subordinated to such Liens on ABL 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 Priority Collateral provided to the First Priority Secured Parties, including, without limitation, Adequate Protection Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral provided to the
First Priority Secured Parties and (iii) to any “carve-out” with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral for professional and United States Trustee fees agreed to by the First Priority Representative or the other First Priority 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 each Second Priority Representative and each Second Priority Secured Party reserves the right to
object to any ABL Priority DIP Financing to the extent that such ABL Priority DIP Financing (x) seeks a Lien on Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral that is senior to, or pari passu with, any Liens of the Second Priority Secured Parties
on such Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral or (y) compels any Grantor to seek confirmation of a specific Reorganization Plan that impairs the Term Loan/Notes Secured Obligations under Section 1124 of the Bankruptcy Code. 

(b) If any Grantor becomes subject to any Insolvency Proceeding, then any Second Priority Representative or any other Second
Priority Secured Parties may propose DIP Financing to such Grantor (i) secured by assets constituting ABL Priority Collateral so long as (A) the First Priority Representative has not proposed to provide DIP Financing to any Grantor secured
by ABL Priority Collateral and has not consented (or objects) to the provision of DIP Financing to any Grantor by any third party and (B) the Liens securing such DIP Financing (or any Adequate Protection Liens granted in connection therewith)
on ABL Priority Collateral are junior and subordinate to the First Priority Liens (and any Adequate Protection Liens granted to any First Priority Secured Parties) or (ii) secured by assets not constituting ABL Priority Collateral. 

5.3 Relief From the Automatic Stay. Each Second Priority Representative agrees, on behalf of itself and the other applicable Second
Priority Secured Parties, that until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date it will not (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 the ABL Priority 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. 

  
 18 








 5.4 Adequate Protection. 

(a) Each Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other applicable 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 the ABL
Priority Collateral, including, without limitation, in the form of Adequate Protection Liens, superpriority claims, interest, fees, expenses or other amounts or (ii) any request by the First Priority Representative or any other First Priority
Secured Party for adequate protection in the form of Adequate Protection Liens on Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral that are junior and subordinate to the Liens of the Second Priority Secured Parties secured by such Term Loan/Notes Exclusive
Collateral on terms substantially identical to the terms on which the Liens of the Second Priority Secured Parties are junior and subordinate to the Liens of the First Priority Secured Parties hereunder, (iii) 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 the ABL Priority Collateral or
(iv) the payment of 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 the ABL Priority
Collateral. Solely to the extent that the First Priority Representative, on behalf of the First Priority Secured Parties, receives Adequate Protection Liens secured by ABL Priority Collateral, each Second Priority Representative shall be entitled to
seek Adequate Protection Liens on such ABL Priority Collateral; provided that such Second Priority Representative’s Adequate Protection Liens shall be junior and subordinate to the Adequate Protection Liens granted to the First Priority
Representative on the same terms and conditions as are provided herein. 
 (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
Section 5.4(a), (1) in any Insolvency Proceeding, the Second Priority Representatives and the other Second Priority Secured Parties may seek, support, accept or retain adequate protection in respect of assets of the Grantors or their
Subsidiaries that do not constitute either ABL Priority Collateral or Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral solely in the form of (x) an Adequate Protection Lien on such assets, subordinated to the First Priority Liens (including any Adequate
Protection Liens in favor of any First Priority Secured Parties) on such assets and the Liens securing any DIP Financing provided by, or consented to by (including via non-objection), the First Priority Secured Parties on the same basis as the other
Second Priority Liens are so subordinated to the First Priority Liens under this Agreement and (y) non-monetary adequate protection that is customarily provided in an Insolvency Proceeding, including, without limitation, the provision of
information and the ability to monitor such collateral; (2) in the event any Second Priority Secured Party receives adequate protection in the form of Adequate Protection Liens on assets of the Grantors other than the Term Loan/Notes Exclusive
Collateral, then each Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other applicable Second Priority Secured Parties, (i) consents to the First Priority Representative having a senior Adequate Protection Lien on such collateral as
security for the First Priority Obligations and that any Adequate Protection Liens granted to the Second Priority Secured Parties, on any such 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 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 

  
 19 








 
subject in all respects to the provisions of this Agreement, including without limitation the lien subordination provisions set forth in Section 2.1(a)) 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; and (3) in any Insolvency Proceeding and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.4, the First Priority Representative and the other First Priority Secured Parties may seek, support, accept or
retain adequate protection in respect of Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral solely in the form of (x) an Adequate Protection Lien on such assets, subordinated to the Liens of the Second Priority Secured Parties (including any Adequate
Protection Liens in favor of any Second Priority Secured Parties) on such assets and the Liens securing any DIP Financing provided by, or consented to by (including via non-objection), the Second Priority Secured Parties on terms substantially
identical to the terms on which the Second Priority Liens are subordinated to the First Priority Liens under this Agreement and (y) non-monetary adequate protection that is customarily provided in an Insolvency Proceeding, including, without
limitation, the provision of information and the ability to monitor such collateral. Upon the turnover of such distributions as contemplated by clause (2)(ii) of 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. 
 (c)
No Second Priority Secured Party will assert or enforce any claim made under section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to ABL Priority Collateral 

5.5 Avoidance Issues. 

(a) 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 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 the ABL Priority 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. 

5.6 Asset Dispositions in an Insolvency Proceeding. 

(a) Each Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other applicable Second Priority Secured Parties, agrees
that (i) it shall not, in an Insolvency Proceeding, oppose any sale or disposition of any ABL Priority Collateral that is supported by the First Priority Secured Parties, and (ii) it will be deemed, in its capacity as a holder of a Lien on
such ABL Priority Collateral, to have consented under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (and otherwise) to any such sale supported by the First Priority Secured Parties and to have released their Liens in the ABL Priority Collateral (but not
on any proceeds of such ABL Priority Collateral not required to be paid to the First Priority Secured Parties, which Liens on such proceeds, if any, shall remain subject to the provisions of this Agreement); provided that notwithstanding the
deemed consent of the Second Priority Secured 

  
 20 








 
Parties (or the Second Priority Representatives on their behalf) to such sale or disposition of such assets, any Second Priority Representative or the Second Priority Secured Parties, may assert
any objection or opposition that could be asserted by an unsecured creditor or as a secured creditor with a Lien solely on the Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral in any such Insolvency Proceeding. 

5.7 Separate Grants of Security and Separate Classification. Each of the ABL Agent, on behalf of itself and the ABL Secured Parties and
each Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the applicable Second Priority Secured Parties, acknowledges and agrees that (i) the grant of Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral securing the ABL Secured Obligations constitutes a
separate and distinct grant of Liens from the grant of Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral securing the Second Priority Secured Obligations, (ii) because of, among other things, their differing rights in the ABL Priority Collateral, each of
the ABL Secured Obligations, and the Second Priority Secured Obligations is fundamentally different and must be separately classified in any plan of reorganization proposed or confirmed in an Insolvency Proceeding and (iii) it will object to,
and not vote in favor of, any plan of reorganization that does not separately classify the ABL Secured Obligations and the Second Priority Secured Obligations. 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 First Priority Secured Parties and the claims held by any Second Priority Secured Parties in respect of the ABL Priority Collateral constitute only one secured claim (rather
than separate classes of senior and one or more junior priority secured claims), then the Second Priority Secured Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that all distributions in respect of ABL Priority Collateral shall be made as if there were
separate classes of senior and junior secured claims against the relevant Grantors in respect of the ABL Priority Collateral (with the effect being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the ABL Priority Collateral is sufficient (for this
purpose ignoring all claims held by the Second Priority Secured Parties), the First Priority Secured Parties 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 in respect of ABL Priority Collateral is made in respect of the claims held by the Second Priority Secured Parties), with the Second
Priority Secured Parties hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the First Priority Secured Parties distributions otherwise received or receivable by them in respect of the ABL Priority 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 the ABL Priority Collateral. 

5.8 Plans of Reorganization. 

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, but subject to Section 5.7, no Second Priority Secured Party or
First Priority Secured Party shall be prevented from exercising its rights to vote in favor of or against, or object to or contest, any plan of reorganization in any Insolvency Proceeding of any Grantor. 

(b) If, in any Insolvency Proceeding, debt obligations of the reorganized debtor secured by Liens upon the ABL Priority
Collateral are distributed, pursuant to a plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan, on account of ABL Secured Obligations and on account of Second Priority Secured Obligations, then, to the extent the debt obligations
distributed on account of the ABL Secured Obligations and on account of the Second Priority Secured Obligations are secured by Liens upon the same ABL Priority Collateral, 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. 
 5.9 No Waiver of Rights
of First Priority Secured Parties. 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 that is not prohibited by this Agreement. 

  
 21 








 5.10 Effectiveness in Insolvency Proceedings. 

(a) 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. 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 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. 
 SECTION 6.
Matters Relating to Loan Documents. 
 6.1 General. 

(a) Each of the ABL Agent, on behalf of itself and the ABL Secured Parties and each Second Priority Representative, on behalf
of itself and the applicable Second Priority Secured Parties, and each Grantor agrees that it shall not at any time execute or deliver any amendment or other modification to any of the First Priority Documents or the Second Priority Documents in
violation of this Agreement. 
 (b) 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 relating to
the ABL Priority Collateral 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 applicable Second Priority Representative and (iii) notice of such amendment, waiver or consent shall be given to each 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. Each of
the Grantors and the Representatives agrees that each 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. 

  
 22 








 SECTION 7. Cooperation with Respect to ABL Priority Collateral. 

7.1 Consent to License to Use Intellectual Property. Each Second Priority Representative (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 Agent of a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use during the ABL Priority Collateral
Processing and Sale Period any Patents, Patent Licenses, Trademarks, Trademark Licenses or proprietary information of such Grantor that is Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral (or any Patent, Patent License, Trademark, Trademark License or
proprietary information 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
Agent a non-exclusive royalty-free license to use during the ABL Priority Collateral Processing and Sale Period, any Patent, Patent License, Trademark, Trademark License or proprietary information that is Term Loan/Notes Exclusive 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 Agent upon any inventory or other ABL Priority Collateral of any Grantor and to the extent the use of
such Patent, Patent License, Trademark, Trademark License or proprietary information is necessary or appropriate, in the good faith opinion of the ABL Agent, to process, ship, produce, store, complete, supply, lease, sell or otherwise dispose of any
such inventory in any lawful manner. 
 7.2 Access to Information. 

(a) If any Second Priority Representative 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 a Second Priority Representative), then upon request of the ABL Agent and reasonable advance notice, such Second
Priority Representative will permit the ABL Agent or its representative to inspect and copy such documentation if and to the extent the ABL Agent certifies to such Second Priority Representative that: 

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

7.3 Access to Property to Process and Sell Inventory. 

(a) (i) If the ABL Agent commences any action or proceeding with respect to any of its rights or remedies (including, but not
limited to, any action of foreclosure), enforcement, collection or execution with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral (“ABL Priority Collateral Enforcement Actions”) or if any Second Priority Representative commences any action
or proceeding with respect to any of its rights or remedies (including, but not limited to, any action of foreclosure), enforcement, collection or execution with respect to the Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral (or a purchaser at a foreclosure
sale conducted in foreclosure of Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral takes actual or constructive possession of the Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral of any Grantor) (“Term Loan/Notes Collateral Enforcement Actions”), then each
Second Priority Representative, and the Second Priority Secured Parties (subject to, in the case of any Term Loan/Notes Collateral Enforcement Action, a prior written request by the ABL 

  
 23 








 
Agent to such Second Priority Representative (the “Term Loan/Notes Collateral Enforcement Action Notice”)) shall (x) cooperate with the ABL Agent (and with its officers,
employees, representatives and agents) at the cost and expense of the ABL Secured Parties (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, (y) not hinder or restrict in any respect the ABL 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 (z) to the extent within the power or control of such Second Priority
Secured Party to do so, permit the ABL Agent, its employees, agents, advisers and representatives, at the cost and expense of the ABL Secured Parties (subject to the Grantors’ reimbursement and indemnity obligations with respect thereto under
the Loan Documents), to enter upon and use the Term Loan/Notes Exclusive 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 (I) commencing on the earlier of the date of the initial ABL Priority Collateral Enforcement Action or the date of delivery of the Term Loan/Notes Collateral Enforcement Action Notice, as the case may be,
and (II) ending on the earlier of (A) the date occurring 180 days thereafter, (B) the date on which all of the ABL Priority Collateral (other than an immaterial amount thereof (as reasonably determined by the ABL Agent)) located on such
premises is sold, assigned, collected or transferred by the ABL Agent and (C) the First Priority Obligations Payment Date (such period, as the same may be extended with the written consent of the Term Loan/Notes Representative (or, if no Term
Loan/Notes Secured Obligations are then outstanding, to the Junior Priority Representative) as contemplated by the final sentence of this Section 7.3(a), the “ABL Priority Collateral Processing and Sale Period”), for purposes
of: 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; 

 

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


 

	 	(B)	removing and transporting any or all of the ABL Priority Collateral located in or on such Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral; 

  

	 	(C)	otherwise 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/or


  

	 	(D)	taking reasonable actions to protect, secure, and otherwise enforce the rights or remedies of the ABL Secured Parties and/or the ABL Agent (including with respect to any ABL Priority Collateral Enforcement Actions) in
and to the ABL Priority Collateral; 

 provided, however, that nothing contained in this Agreement shall restrict the rights of any
Second Priority Representative from selling, assigning or otherwise transferring any Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral prior to the expiration of such ABL Priority Collateral Processing and Sale Period if the


  
 24 








 
purchaser, assignee or transferee thereof agrees in writing (for the benefit of the ABL Agent and the ABL Secured Parties) to be bound by the provisions of this Section 7.3 and
Section 7.1. 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 Term Loan/Notes Representative (or, if no Term Loan/Notes Secured Obligations are then outstanding, to the Junior Priority Representative), upon request by the ABL 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 Secured Parties and/or the ABL Agent (or their respective employees, agents, advisers and representatives) of any Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral, the ABL Secured Parties and
the ABL Agent shall (i) be responsible for the ordinary course third-party expenses related thereto, including costs with respect to heat, light, electricity, water and real property taxes with respect to that portion of any premises so used or
occupied and (ii) be obligated to repair at their expense any physical damage to such Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral resulting from such occupancy, use or control or removal of ABL Priority Collateral, and to leave such Term Loan/Notes
Exclusive 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 Secured Parties or the ABL Agent have
any liability to any Second Priority Representative or to any other Second Priority Secured Party with respect to the Term Loan/Notes Exclusive 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/Notes Exclusive Collateral existing prior to the date of the exercise by the ABL Secured Parties (or the ABL Agent, as the case may be) of their rights under this Section 7.3(a)
and the ABL Secured Parties shall have no duty or liability to maintain the Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral in a condition or manner better than that in which it was maintained prior to the use thereof by the ABL Secured Parties, or for any
diminution in the value of the Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral that results from ordinary wear and tear resulting from the use of the Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral by the ABL 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 Secured Parties and the ABL Agent shall cooperate with the Term Loan/Notes Representative, and the other Term Loan/Notes Secured
Parties (or, if no Term Loan/Notes Secured Obligations are then outstanding, the Junior Priority Representative and the other Junior Priority Secured Parties) in connection with any efforts made by such Second Priority Secured Parties to sell the
Term Loan/Notes Exclusive Collateral. 
 7.4 Grantor Consent. The Borrower and the other Grantors consent to the performance by each
Second Priority Secured Party of the obligations set forth in this Section 7 and acknowledge and agree that neither any Second Priority Representative nor any other Second Priority Secured Party shall ever be accountable or liable (except to
the extent resulting from such party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct) for any action taken or omitted by the ABL Agent or any ABL 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 Agent or any ABL 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 the ABL Agent or its officers, employees, agents, successors or assigns. 

  
 25 








 SECTION 8. Reliance; Waivers; etc. 

8.1 Reliance. The Second Priority Documents are deemed to have been executed and delivered, and all extensions of credit thereunder and
under the First Priority Documents are deemed to have been made or incurred, in reliance upon this Agreement. Each Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other applicable Second Priority Secured Parties, expressly waives all
notice of the acceptance of and reliance on this Agreement by the other Secured Parties. 
 8.2 No Warranties or Liability. Each of
the First Priority Representative and each Second Priority Representative acknowledges and agrees that neither of them has made any representation or warranty with respect to the execution, validity, legality, completeness, collectibility 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 Representatives will be entitled to manage and supervise
their respective extensions of credit to any Grantor (if any) in accordance with the First Priority Documents and the Second Priority documents, respectively, law and their usual practices, modified from time to time as they deem appropriate. 

8.3 No 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 each Second Priority
Representative and the Second Priority Secured Parties, in each case with respect to the ABL Priority 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 ABL Priority
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 restatement of all or any portion of the First Priority Obligation
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, the Second Priority Representatives or any Grantor, to the extent applicable, in respect of this Agreement. 

  
 26 








 SECTION 10. Joinder of Representative for Replacement ABL Credit Agreement and
Representative for Junior Priority Secured Obligations. 
 (a) The Borrower may from time to time, subject to any
limitations contained in the ABL Loan Documents and the Second Priority Documents in effect at such time, provide for a Replacement ABL Credit Agreement and the Liens securing such Replacement ABL Credit Agreement to become subject to this Agreement
or for a Junior Priority Representative and the Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral of such Junior Priority Representative to become subject to this Agreement by delivering to each Representative party hereto at such time a certificate of a
Responsible Officer of the Borrower: 
 (i) describing the agreement being designated as a Replacement ABL Credit Agreement
and the obligations in connection with such agreement being designated as First Priority Obligations or the indebtedness and obligations being designated as Junior Priority Secured Obligations that will initially constitute such hereunder (as the
case may be); 
 (ii) certifying that the designation of such Replacement ABL Credit Agreement or Junior Priority Secured
Obligations (as the case may be), the creation of the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations under such Replacement ABL Credit Agreement or such Junior Priority Secured Obligations (as the case may be) do not violate or result in a default under
any provision of any Loan Document in effect at such time; and 
 (iii) attaching a fully completed Representative Joinder
Agreement executed and delivered by the Representative with respect to such Replacement ABL Credit Agreement or Junior Priority Secured Obligations (as the case may be) and, in the case of the joinder of a Junior Priority Representative, attaching a
copy of the Junior Priority Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement and any Second Priority Intercreditor Agreement. 
 Upon the delivery of such
certificate and the related attachments as provided above, (i) in the case of a Replacement ABL Credit Agreement, such Replacement ABL Credit Agreement will become a “Replacement ABL Credit Agreement” for all purposes of this
Agreement and the obligations in connection with such Agreement shall become “First Lien Obligations” and (ii) in the case of a joinder of a Junior Priority Representative, such Junior Priority Representative will become the
“Junior Priority Representative” for all purposes of this Agreement. 
 SECTION 11. Miscellaneous. 

11.1 Conflicts; Agreement Solely to Define Relative Rights. Except as otherwise provided herein, in the event of any conflict between
the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of any First Priority Document or any Second Priority Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern. This Agreement is entered into solely for purposes of defining the relative rights of
the First Lien Secured Parties, on the one hand, and the Second Lien Secured Parties, on the other. The relative rights of the Term Loan/Notes Secured Parties, on the one hand, and the Junior Priority Secured Parties, on the other hand, shall also
be subject to the terms of the Second Priority Intercreditor Agreement. For purposes of determining whether any Term Loan/Notes Secured Obligations are outstanding for any purposes of this Agreement, the First Priority Representative shall be fully
protected in assuming that Term Loan/Notes Secured Obligations are outstanding until such time as it receives a certificate signed by the Term Loan/Notes Representative stating that no Term Loan/Notes Secured Obligations are then outstanding. 

11.2 Continuing Nature of Provisions. This Agreement shall continue to be effective, and shall not be revocable by any party hereto,
until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date shall have occurred. This is a continuing agreement and the First Priority Secured Parties and the Second Priority 

  
 27 








 
Secured Parties may continue, at any time and without notice to the other parties hereto, to extend credit and other financial accommodations, lend monies and provide indebtedness to, or for the
benefit of, any Grantor on the faith hereof. 
 11.3 Amendments; Waivers. 

No amendment or modification of any of the provisions of this Agreement (other than pursuant to a Representative Joinder Agreement or a Grantor
Joinder Agreement) shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the First Priority Representative and each Second Priority Representative and, in the case of amendments or modifications that could reasonably be expected to
affect the rights, duties or interests of any Grantor, the Borrower. 
 11.4 Information Concerning Financial Condition of the Borrower
and the other Grantors. The First Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other First Priority Secured Parties and each Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other applicable Second Priority Secured Parties,
hereby agree that each Secured Party assumes responsibility for keeping itself informed of the financial condition of the relevant Grantors and all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the First Priority Obligations or the
Second Priority Obligations. The First Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other First Priority Secured Parties and each Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other applicable Second Priority Secured Parties,
hereby agree that no party shall have any duty to advise any other party of information known to it regarding such condition or any such circumstances. In the event any Secured Party, in its sole discretion, undertakes at any time or from time to
time to provide any information to any other Secured Party, it shall be under no obligation (a) to provide any such information to such other party or any other party on any subsequent occasion, (b) to undertake any investigation not a
part of its regular business routine, or (c) to disclose any other information. Further, nothing in this Agreement shall impose a duty on the Term/Loan Notes Representative to keep itself informed of the financial condition of the Grantors or
of other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the First Priority Obligations, Second Priority Obligations or any Junior Priority Secured Obligations beyond what is required pursuant to the Second Priority Documents. 

11.5 Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 

11.6 Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process; Process Agent. 

(a) EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE
COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS
AGREEMENT, OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE
COURT OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON
THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW.
