connection with any such Proceeding. Each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor hereby agrees to not exercise any and all rights that it may acquire by subrogation or otherwise to any Lien of the Senior Obligations or any portion thereof
until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred. 
 (c) In any Proceeding, neither the Trustee nor the Subordinated Creditor shall
(i) oppose, object to, or vote against any plan of reorganization or disclosure statement, or join with or support any third party in doing so, to the extent the terms of such plan or disclosure statement comply with the following clause
(ii) and are otherwise consistent with the rights of the Senior Creditors under this Agreement or (ii) support or vote for any plan of reorganization or disclosure statement of any Grantor unless (x) such plan provides for the payment
in full in cash of all Senior Obligations (including all post-petition interest, fees and expenses as provided in Section 6.6 hereof) on the effective date of such plan of reorganization, or (y) such plan provides on account of the Senior
Obligations for Liens for the benefit of the Senior Creditors on all Collateral, and on all proceeds thereof, and such plan also provides that any Liens retained by, or granted to, the Trustee are only on assets or property securing the Senior
Obligations and shall have the same relative priority with respect to the Collateral or other assets or property, 









 Exhibit M 
 Page 13 
  

 
respectively, as provided in this Agreement with respect to Common Collateral, and to the extent such plan provides for deferred cash payments, or for the
distribution of any other property of any kind or nature, on account of the Senior Obligations or the Subordinated Obligations, such plan provides that any such deferred cash payments or other distributions in respect of the Subordinated Obligations
shall be delivered to the Senior Agent and distributed in accordance with the payment subordination provisions and Lien priorities provided herein, it being understood that, in the event that any plan is proposed by any debtor, creditor, or other
party in interest in any such Proceeding that is inconsistent with or purports to alter the provisions of this Agreement, the Senior Agent shall be deemed to have been granted, as of the date hereof, an irrevocable power of attorney to vote the
claims of the Subordinated Creditor against any such plan, with such appointment being coupled with an interest, and the Senior Agent shall be deemed the “holder” of such claims within the meaning of Section 1126(a) of the Bankruptcy
Code. Except as provided in this Section 2.2(c), the Subordinated Creditor shall remain entitled to vote its claims in any such Proceeding. 
 (d) Neither the Trustee nor the Subordinated Creditor shall pledge, assign, hypothecate, transfer, convey or sell any Subordinated Obligations or any interest in any Subordinated Obligations to any entity (other than under the relevant
Senior Security Documents or Subordinated Security Documents and in accordance with the relevant requirements of the Senior Credit Agreement to a Credit Party (as defined in the Senior Credit Agreement) which is a party hereto) without the prior
written consent of the Senior Agent (with the prior written consent of the Required Senior Creditors), provided that Subordinated Creditor may assign some or all of the Subordinated Obligations to any assignee or transferee so long as such
assignee or transferee acquiring any interest in the Subordinated Obligations shall execute and deliver a written acknowledgment to the Senior Agent of receipt of a copy of this Agreement and the written agreement by such Person to be bound by the
terms of this Agreement. 
 (e) Upon the reasonable request by the Senior Agent or the Required Senior Creditors, the Trustee or the
Subordinated Creditor, as applicable, shall within ten (10) days furnish the Senior Creditors with a statement, duly acknowledged and certified, setting forth the original principal amount of the notes evidencing the Indebtedness with respect
to the Subordinated Obligations, the unpaid principal balance, all accrued interest but unpaid interest and any other sums due and owing thereunder, the rate of interest, the monthly payments and further certifying that, to the best knowledge of the
Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor, there exist no defaults with respect to any Subordinated Obligations, or if any such defaults exist, specifying the defaults and the nature thereof. 
 (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, neither the Trustee nor the Subordinated Creditor shall be required to take any action
(i) which is contrary to this Agreement, (ii) which is contrary to applicable law, or (iii) if the Trustee and/or the Subordinated Creditor have not received an indemnity or other undertaking from the Senior Agent and/or the Required
Senior Creditors with respect to any claim, suit or cause of action of any third party arising out of such action, which undertaking is satisfactory to the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor in their reasonable discretion. 
 (g) Neither the Trustee nor the Subordinated Creditor, nor any of their respective Affiliates, shall be responsible to any Senior Creditor for
(i) any recitals, statements, 









 Exhibit M 
 Page 14 
  

 
representations or warranties made by the Company or any other Grantor contained in this Agreement, the Indenture, the PIK Notes or any Subordinated Debt
Documents or in any certificate or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by Trustee or Subordinated Creditor under, contained in this Agreement, the Indenture, or any Subordinated Debt Documents, (ii) the value, validity,
effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of any Collateral, the Indenture, the PIK Notes or any Subordinated Debt Documents or any other documents referred to or provided for hereunder or thereunder, or (iii) any failure by the
Company or any Grantor to perform their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder; provided, however, that nothing in this Section shall be deemed or construed as limiting the rights of the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor or
the obligations of the Company and/or the Grantors in this Agreement, the Indenture, the PIK Notes or any Subordinated Debt Documents. 
 (h)
The Trustee shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other professionals concerning all matters relating to its duties hereunder, but the Trustee shall not be answerable for the professional malpractice of any attorney-at-law or certified public
accountant or for the acts or omissions of any other professional in connection with the rendering of professional advice in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Trustee may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be
responsible for the acts or omissions of any of such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it in good faith. 
 (i) The Trustee shall not
be responsible to any Senior Creditor for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it hereunder or under any Subordinated Debt Document, or in connection herewith or therewith, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Trustee
shall have no fiduciary duty to any Senior Creditor. 
 2.3 Enforcement by Senior Agent or Senior Creditors. In taking any
Enforcement Action or otherwise exercising any rights and remedies (with respect to Collateral or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of the Senior Debt Documents or the terms hereof, the Senior Agent and the other Senior Creditors may enforce
the provisions of the Senior Credit Documents and (with respect to Specified Collateral) the Subordinated Debt Documents and undertake Enforcement Actions in such order and in such manner as they may determine in the exercise of their sole
discretion. Such exercise and enforcement shall include the rights of an agent appointed by them to sell or otherwise dispose of Collateral upon foreclosure, to incur expenses in connection with such sale or disposition, and to exercise all the
rights and remedies of a secured creditor under the Uniform Commercial Code of any applicable jurisdiction and of a secured creditor under Bankruptcy Laws of any applicable jurisdiction. 
 2.4 Incorrect Payments; Payments from Enforcement Actions with respect to Specified Collateral. If any payment (whether in cash, property
or securities, and including, without limitation, any proceeds of any Collateral pursuant to the enforcement of any Security Document or the exercise of any remedial provision thereunder) (x) not permitted to be accepted by the Trustee or the
Subordinated Creditor under this Agreement or (y) received by the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor in connection with an Enforcement Action undertaken pursuant to the second sentence of Section 2.2(a) is received by the Trustee or the
Subordinated Creditor on account of any Subordinated Obligations prior to the occurrence of the Discharge of Senior Obligations, such payment shall not be commingled with any asset of such Person, shall be held in trust by such Person for the
benefit of the Senior Agent and the other Senior 









 Exhibit M 
 Page 15 
  

 
Creditors and shall be paid over to the Senior Agent, or its designated representative, for application to the payment of the Senior Obligations then
remaining unpaid; provided, however, that the Subordinated Agent or the Subordinated Creditor shall be entitled to receive payment from the Company for any Exempt Subordinated Costs and Expenses and/or recoup from amounts realized by
it in any Enforcement Action or other exercise of rights or remedies with respect to Specified Collateral pursuant to the second sentence of Section 2.2(a) the amount of any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it in connection
therewith. 
 SECTION 3. Priority of Liens; Etc. 
 3.1 Subordination of Liens, Etc. (a) Notwithstanding the date, manner or order of grant, attachment or perfection of any Liens securing the Subordinated Obligations granted on the Collateral or of
any Liens securing the Senior Obligations granted on the Collateral and notwithstanding any provision of the UCC, or any applicable law or the Subordinated Debt Documents or any other circumstance whatsoever (including any non-perfection of any Lien
purporting to secure the Senior Obligations and/or Subordinated Obligations), each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor hereby agrees that: (a) any Lien on Common Collateral securing any Senior Obligations now or hereafter held by or on
behalf of the Senior Agent or any Senior Creditor or any agent or trustee therefor, regardless of how acquired, whether by grant, possession, statute, operation of law, subrogation or otherwise, shall be senior in all respects and prior to any Lien
on Common Collateral securing any of the Subordinated Obligations; and (b) any Lien on Common Collateral now or hereafter held by or on behalf of the Trustee, the Subordinated Creditor or any agent or trustee therefor regardless of how
acquired, whether by grant, possession, statute, operation of law, subrogation or otherwise, shall be junior and subordinate in all respects to all Liens on Common Collateral securing any Senior Obligations. All Liens on Common Collateral securing
any Senior Obligations shall be and remain senior in all respects and prior to all Liens on Common Collateral securing any Subordinated Obligations for all purposes, whether or not such Liens securing any Senior Obligations are subordinated to any
Lien securing any other obligation of the Company, any other Grantor or any other Person. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that it is their intent that the Senior Obligations (and the security therefor) constitute a separate and distinct
class (and separate and distinct claims) from the Subordinated Obligations (and the security therefor). 
 3.2 Conversion of PIK
Notes; Perfection of Senior Agent’s First-Priority Lien. (a) The Subordinated Creditor shall promptly (but in any event within 30 days) after the earlier to occur of (x) Substantial Completion of the Senior Collateral and
(y) August 7, 2007 (the earlier of (x) and (y), the “Trigger Date”), effect a conversion of the PIK Notes to common stock and warrants of the Company pursuant to the Indenture and the Recapitalization Agreement (the
“PIK Conversion”), provided that, so long as (i) an event of default under the Sections 7.1(i) or 7.1(j) of the Indenture or Sections 8.1(f) or 8.1(g) of the Senior Credit Agreement has occurred and is continuing or
(ii) the conditions precedent to the PIK Conversion in Section 5.1 of the Recapitalization Agreement have not been satisfied, the Subordinated Creditor may, but shall not be obligated to, consummate the PIK Conversion. So long as any event
described in clause (i) or (ii) above remains continuing, consummation of the PIK Conversion shall be at the sole option of the Subordinated Creditor. The Company agrees 









 Exhibit M 
 Page 16 
  

 
to use its best efforts to meet all conditions precedent to the effectiveness of the PIK Conversion under the Recapitalization Agreement. In the event that
the PIK Conversion has not been consummated because the Company has failed to meet any condition precedent in Section 5.1 of the Recapitalization Agreement, the Company shall continue to use its best efforts to satisfy such condition(s) and
consummate the PIK Conversion as soon as possible. 
 (b) It is understood and agreed that it is the intent of the parties that, as soon as
practicable following the Closing Date, all Senior Obligations shall be secured by a perfected first-priority Lien on all Collateral in accordance with the Post-Closing Collateral Requirement. In furtherance of the foregoing, each of the Trustee and
the Subordinated Creditor agrees, upon the request of the Senior Agent, promptly to enter into, execute and/or deliver any agreements, filings, instruments or other documents reasonably requested by the Senior Agent (including, without limitation,
(x) delivery of any Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected by possession and (y) following the occurrence of the PIK Conversion, releases of the Liens of the Trustee in existence on the date hereof) and to otherwise use
its best efforts to permit the Senior Agent to obtain a first-priority perfected Lien on all Collateral. This Section 3.2(b) shall survive termination of this Agreement. 
 3.3 Prohibition on Contesting Liens. Each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor and the Senior Agent, for itself and on behalf of
each Senior Creditor, agrees that it shall not (and hereby waives any right to) contest or support any other Person in contesting, in any proceeding (including any Proceeding), (i) the validity or enforceability of any Security Document or any
Obligation thereunder, (ii) the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens, mortgages, assignments and security interests granted pursuant to the Security Documents with respect to the Senior Obligations or (iii) the
relative rights and duties of the holders of the Senior Obligations and the Subordinated Obligations granted and/or established in this Agreement or any other Security Document with respect to such Liens, mortgages, assignments, and security
interests; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of the Senior Agent or any other Senior Creditor to enforce this Agreement, including the priority of the Liens securing
the Senior Obligations as provided in Section 3.1 hereof. 
 3.4 No New Liens. So long as the Discharge of Senior
Obligations has not occurred, the parties hereto agree that the Company shall not, and shall not permit any other Grantor to, grant or permit any additional Liens, or take any action to perfect any additional Liens, on any asset or property to
secure any Subordinated Obligation unless it has also granted a Lien on such asset or property to secure the Senior Obligations and has taken all actions to perfect such Liens. To the extent that the foregoing provisions are not complied with for
any reason, without limiting any other rights and remedies available to the Senior Agent and/or the other Senior Creditors, each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor agrees that any amounts received by or distributed to any of them pursuant
to or as a result of Liens granted in contravention of this Section 3.4 shall be subject to Section 2.4 hereof. 
 SECTION 4.
Lien Enforcement. 
 4.1 Exercise of Remedies. (a) Subject to the provisions of the second sentence of
Section 2.2(a) hereof, so long as the Discharge of Senior Obligations has not 









 Exhibit M 
 Page 17 
  

 
occurred, whether or not any Proceeding has been commenced by or against the Company or any other Grantor: (i) neither the Trustee nor the Subordinated
Creditor will exercise or seek to exercise any rights or remedies (including setoff) with respect to any Collateral (including, without limitation, the exercise of any right under any lockbox agreement, control account agreement, landlord waiver or
bailee’s letter or similar agreement or arrangement to which the Trustee or any Subordinated Creditor is a party) or institute or commence, or join with any Person in commencing, any action or proceeding with respect to such rights or remedies
(including any action of foreclosure, enforcement, collection or execution and any Proceeding), and will not contest, protest or object to any foreclosure proceeding or action brought by the Senior Agent or any other Senior Creditor or any other
exercise by the Senior Agent or any other Senior Creditor of any rights and remedies relating to Collateral under the Senior Credit Documents or otherwise, or object to the forbearance by the Senior Agent or the other Senior Creditors from bringing
or pursuing any foreclosure proceeding or action or any other exercise of any rights or remedies relating to Collateral; and (ii) the Senior Agent shall have the exclusive right, and the Required Senior Creditors shall have the exclusive right to
instruct the Senior Agent, to enforce rights, exercise remedies (including set-off and the right to credit bid their debt) and make determinations regarding the release, disposition, or restrictions with respect to Collateral without any
consultation with or the consent of the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor, all as though the Subordinated Obligations did not exist; provided, however, that (A) in any Proceeding commenced by or against the Company or any other
Grantor, the Trustee may (x) subject to the provisions of Section 2.2(b) hereof, file a claim or statement of interest with respect to the Subordinated Obligations and (y) subject to the provisions of Section 2.2(c) hereof, vote such claim, (B) the
Trustee, at the written direction of the Subordinated Creditor, may take any action (not adverse to the prior Liens on Common Collateral securing the Senior Obligations, or the rights of the Senior Agent or the other Senior Creditors to exercise
remedies in respect thereof) in order to preserve or protect its Lien on Collateral in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (and, with respect to its Liens on Specified Collateral, shall take any such action if instructed to do so by the
Senior Agent), (C) the Subordinated Creditor shall be entitled to file any necessary responsive or defensive pleading 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 Subordinated Creditor, including any claim secured by Collateral, if any, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (D) the Subordinated Creditor may file any pleadings, objections, motions or
agreements which assert rights or interests available to unsecured creditors of the Grantors arising under either any Proceeding or applicable non-bankruptcy law, in each case not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement and (E) subject to the
provisions of Section 2.2(c) hereof, the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor may file any proof of claim, make other filings and make any arguments and motions that are, in each case, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement with respect to
the Subordinated Obligations and Common Collateral. 
 (b) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.2(a) hereof, each of the Trustee and
the Subordinated Creditor agrees that it will not take or receive any Collateral or any proceeds of Collateral in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy (including setoff) with respect to any Collateral, unless and until the Discharge
of Senior Obligations has occurred. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, unless and until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, the sole right of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor with respect to Common 









 Exhibit M 
 Page 18 
  

 
Collateral is to hold a Lien on Common Collateral pursuant to the Subordinated Security Documents for the period and to the extent granted therein and to
receive a share of the proceeds thereof, if any, after the Discharge of the Senior Obligations has occurred in accordance with the terms of the Subordinated Debt Documents and applicable law. 
 (c) Each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor (i) agrees that neither the Trustee nor the Subordinated Creditor will take any action that
would hinder, delay, limit or prohibit any exercise of remedies under the Senior Credit Documents, including any collection, sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of the Collateral, whether by foreclosure or otherwise, or that would
limit, invalidate, avoid or set aside any Lien or Security Document or subordinate the priority of the Senior Obligations to the Subordinated Obligations or grant the Liens on Common Collateral securing the Subordinated Obligations equal ranking to
the Liens securing the Senior Obligations and (ii) hereby waives any and all rights it may have as a junior lien creditor or otherwise (whether arising under the UCC or under any other law) to object to the manner in which the Senior Agent or
the other Senior Creditors seek to enforce or collect the Senior Obligations or the Liens granted in any of the Collateral, regardless of whether any action or failure to act by or on behalf of the Senior Agent or Senior Creditors is adverse to the
interest of the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor. 
 (d) The Trustee hereby acknowledges and agrees that no covenant, agreement or
restriction contained in the Subordinated Security Documents or any other Subordinated Credit Document shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights and remedies of the Senior Agent or the other Senior Creditors with respect to the Collateral as
set forth in this Agreement and the Senior Credit Documents. 
 SECTION 5. Other Agreements. 
 5.1 Actions Upon Default Under Subordinated Debt Documents. Each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor agrees that (i) upon the
occurrence of an event of default under any Subordinated Debt Document as to which the Trustee is provided written notice, the Trustee shall promptly notify the Senior Agent thereof in writing and shall specify the nature of such event of default
and (ii) subject to the other terms of this Agreement governing the undertaking of any Enforcement Action by the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor and to the other terms hereof, if any event of default or other event or condition exists
under any Subordinated Debt Document, the effect of which is to permit the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor to accelerate the maturity of any Indebtedness thereunder, then if a Senior Acceleration Event shall have occurred and be continuing and
the Senior Agent so instructs in writing, the Trustee and Subordinated Creditor shall forthwith accelerate the Subordinated Obligations in accordance with the terms of such Subordinated Debt Document as in effect on the date hereof. 
 5.2 Releases. (a) If, in connection with: 
 (i) the exercise of the Senior Agent’s remedies in respect of the Collateral pursuant to the terms hereof, including any sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of any such Collateral while any event
of default under the Senior Credit Agreement remains continuing (any of the foregoing, a “Remedial Action”); 








 Exhibit M 
 Page 19 
  

 (ii) any sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition (any of the foregoing, a
“Disposition”) of any Collateral permitted under the terms of the Senior Credit Documents and the Indenture (in each case, whether or not an event of default thereunder has occurred and is continuing); or 
 (iii) any agreement not contravening the Senior Debt Documents (including, without limitation, with respect to any asset sale) between the Senior Agent
and the Company or any other Grantor (x) to release the Senior Agent’s Lien on any portion of the Collateral (other than as a result of, or in anticipation of, the Discharge of Senior Credit Agreement Obligations or the Discharge of Senior
Obligations) or (y) to release any Grantor from its obligations under its guaranty of the Senior Obligations (other than as a result of, or in anticipation of, the Discharge of Senior Credit Agreement Obligations or the Discharge of Senior
Obligations); 
 there occurs the release by the Senior Agent, acting on its own or at the direction of the Required Senior Creditors, of any of its Liens on
any part of the Collateral, or of any Grantor from its obligations under its guaranty of the Senior Obligations, then the Liens, if any, of the Trustee, for itself and for the benefit of the Subordinated Creditor, on such Collateral, and the
obligations of such Grantor under its guaranty of the Subordinated Obligations, shall be automatically, unconditionally and simultaneously released, and the Trustee, for itself or on behalf of each such Subordinated Creditor, promptly shall execute
and deliver to the Senior Agent or such Grantor such termination statements, releases and other documents as the Senior Agent or such Grantor may request to effectively confirm such release; provided, however, that if the Senior Credit
Agreement does not permit such net sale proceeds to be reinvested by the Company, all net proceeds of any transaction described in Section 5.2(a)(i) and 5.2(a)(iii) shall be applied to permanently reduce the Senior Obligations. If an event of
default then exists under the Indenture and the Discharge of Senior Obligations occurs concurrently with any such release, the Trustee (for itself and on behalf of the Subordinated Creditor) shall be entitled to receive the residual cash or cash
equivalents (if any) remaining after giving effect to such release and the Discharge of the Senior Obligations. Until the Discharge of Senior Obligations occurs, each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor hereby irrevocably constitutes and
appoints the Senior Agent and any officer or agent of the Senior Agent, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of the Trustee or the Subordinated
Creditor or in the Senior Agent’s own name, from time to time in the Senior Agent’s discretion, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Section 5.2, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents
and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Section 5.2, including any endorsements or other instruments of transfer or release. 
 (b) If, prior to the Discharge of Senior Obligations, a subordination of the Senior Agent’s Lien on any Common Collateral is permitted (or in good
faith believed by the Senior Agent to be permitted) under the Senior Credit Agreement to another Lien permitted under the Senior Credit Agreement (a “Priority Lien”), then the Senior Agent is authorized to execute and deliver a
subordination agreement with respect thereto in form and substance satisfactory to it, and the Subordinated Creditor and the Trustee, at the written direction of the Subordinated Creditor, shall promptly execute and deliver to the Senior Agent or
the relevant Grantor an identical subordination agreement subordinating the Liens of the Trustee for the benefit of the Subordinated Creditor to such Priority Lien. 








 Exhibit M 
 Page 20 
  

 5.3 Insurance. Unless and until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, the
Senior Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Senior Creditors) shall have the sole and exclusive right, subject to the rights of the Grantors under the Senior Credit Documents, to adjust settlement for any insurance policy covering the
Collateral in the event of any loss thereunder and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding (or any deed in lieu of condemnation) affecting the Collateral. Unless and until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has
occurred, and subject to the rights of the Grantors under the Senior Security Documents, all proceeds of any such policy and any such award (or any payments with respect to a deed in lieu of condemnation) in respect of the Collateral shall be paid
to the Senior Agent for the benefit of the Senior Creditors pursuant to the terms of the Senior Debt Documents (including, without limitation, for purposes of cash collateralization of commitments, and Hedging Agreements) and, after the Discharge of
Senior Obligations has occurred, to the Trustee for the benefit of the Subordinated Creditor to the extent required under the Subordinated Security Documents and then, to the extent no Subordinated Obligations are outstanding, to the owner of the
subject property, such other Person as may be entitled thereto or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. If the Trustee or any other Subordinated Creditor shall, at any time, receive any proceeds of any such insurance policy or
any such award or payment in contravention of this Agreement, it shall pay such proceeds over to the Senior Agent in accordance with the terms of Section 2.4 of this Agreement. 
 5.4 Amendments and other Modifications to Subordinated Debt Documents; Restrictions on Actions by Subordinated Creditor. Until the
Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred and notwithstanding anything contained in the Subordinated Debt Documents or the Senior Debt Documents to the contrary, save as in respect of waivers granted by the Subordinated Creditor on or prior to
the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date, neither Trustee nor the Subordinated Creditor shall, without the prior written consent of Senior Agent, agree to any amendment, waiver, modification or supplement to the Subordinated Debt Documents, the
effect of which is to (i) increase the maximum principal amount of the Subordinated Obligations, (ii) increase the rate of interest on any of the Subordinated Obligations (except in connection with the imposition of a default rate of
interest to the extent provided for in the Subordinated Debt Documents on the date hereof), (iii) alter the dates upon which payments of principal or interest on the Subordinated Obligations are due (other than in connection with the
consummation of the PIK Conversion pursuant to this Agreement and to the Recapitalization Agreement), (iv) alter the terms of, add or remove any default or event of default (other than a technical waiver thereof, provided that no such
waiver shall be permitted in any event with respect to (A) any default or event of default arising from a cross-default to any Senior Obligations (or an event of default under the Senior Debt Documents (other than a default or event of default
arising under the Senior Debt Documents solely as a result of a default or event of default arising under the Indenture) or (B) any default or event of default resulting from the failure of any Grantor to pay, on a timely basis, any principal,
interest or fees in respect of Subordinated Obligations), (iv) modify any covenant with respect to the Subordinated Obligations, (v) change the redemption, conversion, prepayment or put provisions of the Subordinated Obligations in a
manner adverse to any Grantor, (vi) alter the subordination 









 Exhibit M 
 Page 21 
  

 
provisions with respect to the Subordinated Obligations or any Lien securing the same, including, without limitation, subordinating the Subordinated
Obligations or any Lien securing the same to any other Indebtedness, (vii) alter the repayment terms of the Subordinated Obligations or forgive any of the Subordinated Obligations, (viii) take any Liens on any property of any Grantor, any
Subsidiary of any Grantor or any other Person, except to the extent that Senior Agent shall have been granted a first-priority Lien on such property, (ix) obtain any guaranties or credit support from any Person, unless the Senior Agent and
Senior Creditors have obtained a guaranty or credit support, as the case may be, in respect of the Senior Obligations from such Person and such Person’s obligations in respect of such guaranty or credit support, as the case may be, in favor of
Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor in respect of the Subordinated Obligations are subordinated to its obligations in respect of the Senior Obligations on the same terms and to the same extent that the Subordinated Obligations are subordinated to
the Senor Indebtedness pursuant the terms of this Agreement, (x) release any Specified Collateral (except as expressly permitted the Senior Debt Documents and the Subordinated Debt Documents), (xi) contravene the provisions of this
Agreement, the Senior Credit Agreement or any other Senior Debt Document or (xii) change or amend any other term of the Subordinated Debt Documents if such change or amendment would be adverse to any Grantor or confer additional material rights
on the Trustee or any Subordinated Creditor or any other holder of the Subordinated Obligations in a manner adverse to any Grantor, the Senior Agent or the Senior Creditors (other than waivers expressly permitted by clause (iv) above).

 5.5 Amendments to Senior Debt Documents. The Senior Credit Documents may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise
modified in accordance with their terms and the First-Lien Credit Agreement may be Refinanced, in each case, without notice to, or the consent of, the Subordinated Agent or the Subordinated Creditor, all without affecting the lien subordination or
other provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that any such amendment, supplement, modification or Refinancing of the Senior Credit Agreement shall not, without the consent of the Subordinated Creditor increase the maximum
aggregate principal of Loans thereunder to an amount in excess of the Cap Amount. 
 5.6 Legends. Each of the Company, each
other Grantor, the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor agrees that, prior to any transfer of any Subordinated Obligations permitted hereunder, each Subordinated Debt Document shall include the following language (or language to similar effect
approved by the Senior Agent): 
 “THIS NOTE [OR OTHER SUBORDINATED DEBT DOCUMENT] AND THE INDEBTEDNESS EVIDENCED HEREBY ARE SUBORDINATE IN THE MANNER
AND TO THE EXTENT SET FORTH IN THAT CERTAIN AMENDED AND RESTATED SUBORDINATION AND INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT (THE “INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT”), DATED AS OF JUNE 1, 2007, AMONG GLOBAL CROSSING LIMITED, AS THE ISSUER, WELLS FARGO BANK,
NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, NOT IN ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY BUT SOLELY AS TRUSTEE UNDER THE SUBORDINATED DEBT DOCUMENTS, THE OTHER GRANTORS NAMED THEREIN, GOLDMAN SACHS CREDIT PARTNERS L.P., AS SENIOR AGENT AND STT CROSSING LTD., AS THE SUBORDINATED
CREDITOR, AND EACH HOLDER OF THIS NOTE, BY ITS ACCEPTANCE HEREOF, SHALL BE BOUND BY THE PROVISIONS OF THE 









 Exhibit M 
 Page 22 
  

 
INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT. IN THE EVENT OF ANY CONFLICT BETWEEN THE TERMS HEREOF AND OF THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT, THE TERMS OF THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT
SHALL GOVERN AND CONTROL.” 
 In addition, the Company, each other Grantor and the Trustee agree that each Subordinated Security Document covering any
Collateral constituting real property shall contain such other language as the Senior Agent may reasonably request to reflect the subordination of such Subordinated Security Document to the Senior Security Document covering such Collateral.

 5.7 Continued Effectiveness. (a) No right of the Senior Creditors, the Senior Agent or any of them to enforce any
provision of this Agreement or any Senior Debt Document shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of any of the Company or any other Grantor or by any act or failure to act by any Senior Creditor
or the Senior Agent, or by any noncompliance by any Person with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Agreement, any of the Senior Debt Documents or any of the Subordinated Debt Documents, regardless of any knowledge thereof which the Senior
Agent or the Senior Creditors, or any of them, may have or be otherwise charged with. 
 (b) Without in any way limiting the generality of
the foregoing paragraph (but subject to the rights of the Company and the other Grantors under the Senior Debt Documents), the Senior Creditors, the Senior Agent and any of them may, at any time and from time to time in accordance with the Senior
Debt Documents and/or applicable law, without the consent of, or notice to, the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor, without incurring any liabilities to the Trustee or any other Subordinated Creditor and without impairing or releasing the
subordination, Lien priorities and other benefits provided in this Agreement (even if any right of subrogation or other right or remedy of the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor is affected, impaired or extinguished thereby) do any one or more of
the following: 
 (i) subject to the provisions of Section 5.5 hereof, make loans and advances to any Grantor or issue, guaranty or
obtain letters of credit for account of any Grantor or otherwise extend credit to any Grantor, in any amount and on any terms, whether pursuant to a commitment or as a discretionary advance and whether or not any default or event of default or
failure of condition is then continuing; 
 (ii) subject to the other provisions of Section 5.5 hereof, change the manner, place or
terms of payment or change or extend the time of payment of, or amend, renew, exchange, increase or alter, the terms of any of the Senior Obligations or any Lien on any Common Collateral or guaranty thereof or any liability of any the Company or any
other Grantor, or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof (including any increase in or extension of the Senior Obligations, without any restriction as to the amount, tenor or terms of any such increase or extension) or
otherwise amend, renew, exchange, extend, modify or supplement in any manner any Liens held by the Senior Agent or any of the Senior Creditors, the Senior Obligations or any of the Senior Debt Documents; 
 (iii) sell, exchange, release, surrender, realize upon, enforce or otherwise deal with in any manner and in any order any part of the Collateral or any
liability of the Company or any other Grantor to the Senior Creditors or the Senior Agent, or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof; 








 Exhibit M 
 Page 23 
  

 (iv) settle or compromise any Senior Obligation or any other liability of the Company or any other
Grantor or any security therefor or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof and apply any sums by whomsoever paid and however realized to any liability (including the Senior Obligations) in any manner or order; 

(v) exercise or delay in or refrain from exercising any right or remedy against the Company or any other Grantor or any other Person or with respect
to any security, elect any remedy and otherwise deal freely with the Company, any other Grantor or any Collateral and any security and any guarantor or any liability of the Company or any other Grantor to the Senior Creditors or any liability
incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof; and 
 (vi) release or discharge any Senior Obligation or any guaranty thereof or any
agreement or obligation of any Grantor or any other person or entity with respect thereto. 
 (c) In the event the Senior Agent or the other
Senior Creditors and the relevant Grantor(s) enter into any amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the Senior Security Documents for the purpose of adding to, or deleting from, or waiving or consenting to any departures from any
provisions of, any Senior Security Document or changing in any manner the rights of the Senior Agent, the other Senior Creditors, the Company or any other Grantor thereunder, then such amendment, waiver or consent shall apply automatically to any
comparable provision of the Indenture and any Comparable Subordinated Security Document without the consent of the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor and without any action by the Trustee, the Company or any other Grantor, provided that
(A) no such amendment, waiver or consent shall have the effect of (i) removing assets subject to the Lien of the Subordinated Security Documents, except to the extent that a release of such Lien is permitted by Section 5.2 of this
Agreement, (ii) imposing additional duties on the Trustee or otherwise exposing the Trustee to any liability or effect any right, power, exculpation or indemnity set forth in the Indenture without its written consent, or (iii) permitting
other Liens on the Collateral not permitted under the terms of the Subordinated Debt Documents or Section 6 hereof and (B) prompt notice of such amendment, waiver or consent has been given to the Trustee (although the failure to give any
such notice shall in no way affect the effectiveness of any such amendment, waiver or consent). 
 5.8 Rights As Unsecured
Creditors. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor may exercise rights and remedies as unsecured creditors against the Company or any other Grantor that has guaranteed the Subordinated
Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Subordinated Debt Documents and applicable law. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by the Trustee or any other Subordinated Creditor
of the Permitted Subordinated Debt Payments so long as such receipt is (i) not the direct or indirect result of the exercise by the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor of rights or remedies (including, without limitation, any Enforcement
Action and any exercise of rights or remedies as a secured creditor (including set-off)) in contravention of this Agreement and (ii) permitted under the Senior 









 Exhibit M 
 Page 24 
  

 
Credit Documents. In the event the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor becomes a judgment lien creditor in respect of Collateral as a result of its
enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor, such judgment lien shall be subordinated to the Liens securing Senior Obligations on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Subordinated Obligations are so subordinated to such Senior
Obligations under this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement impairs or otherwise adversely affects any rights or remedies the Senior Agent or the other Senior Creditors may have with respect to the Collateral. 
 5.9 Collateral in Possession; Bailee for Perfection. (a) If the Senior Agent takes possession of or has “control” (as such
term is defined in the UCC) over any Common Collateral for purposes of perfecting its Lien thereon (including equity certificates, deposit accounts and investment property), the Senior Agent, to the extent such Liens may be perfected only by such
possession or control, shall be deemed to be holding such Common Collateral as agent for Trustee, solely for purposes of perfection of its Lien under the UCC on such Common Collateral; provided that the Senior Agent shall have no duty or
liability to protect or preserve any rights pertaining to any of the Common Collateral for the Trustee or any Subordinated Creditor, and each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor hereby waives and releases the Senior Agent from all claims
and liabilities arising pursuant to its role as such agent, except for claims and liabilities arising from the Senior Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as finally determined pursuant to a final non-appealable order of a court of
competent jurisdiction. 
 (b) If the Trustee takes possession of or has “control” (as such term is defined in the UCC) over any
Common Collateral for purposes of perfecting its Lien thereon (including equity certificates, deposit accounts and investment property), the Trustee, to the extent such Liens may be perfected by such possession or control, shall be deemed to be
holding such Common Collateral as agent for the Senior Agent, solely for purposes of perfection of its Lien under the UCC on such Common Collateral; provided that the Trustee shall have no duty or liability to protect or preserve any rights
pertaining to any of the Common Collateral for the Senior Agent or any of the Senior Creditors, and the Senior Agent and each Senior Creditor hereby waives and releases the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor from all claims and liabilities
arising pursuant to its role as such agent, except for claims and liabilities arising from Trustee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as finally determined pursuant to a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction.

 5.10 [Reserved] 
 5.11 Turnover of Collateral and Proceeds of Collateral. Upon the Discharge of the Senior Obligations, the Senior Agent shall deliver any remaining Collateral in its possession, or any proceeds thereof, together with any
necessary endorsements, first, to the Trustee, if any Subordinated Obligations remain outstanding, and second, to the Company or the relevant Grantor if no Senior Obligations or Subordinated Obligations remain outstanding (in each case, in the case
of any Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected solely by “control” (as defined in the UCC), so as to allow such Person to obtain “control” of such Collateral). The Senior Agent further agrees to take all other
action reasonably requested by such Person in connection with such Person’s obtaining a first-priority security interest in the Collateral or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. 








 Exhibit M 
 Page 25 
  

 5.12 When Discharge of Senior Obligations Deemed to Not Have Occurred. If at any time
after the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, the Company immediately thereafter enters into any Refinancing of any Senior Credit Document evidencing a Senior Obligation which Refinancing is permitted hereby, then such Discharge of Senior
Obligations shall automatically be deemed not to have occurred for all purposes of this Agreement, and the obligations under such Refinancing Senior Credit Document shall automatically be treated as Senior Obligations for all purposes of this
Agreement, including for purposes of the payment subordination and Lien priorities and rights in respect of Collateral set forth herein, and the Senior Agent under such Senior Credit Documents shall be the Senior Agent for all purposes of this
Agreement. Upon receipt of a notice stating that the Company has entered into a new Senior Credit Document (which notice shall include the identity of the new agent, such agent, the “New Agent”), the Trustee and the Subordinated
Creditor shall promptly enter into such documents and agreements (including amendments or supplements to this Agreement) as the respective Company or such New Agent may reasonably request in order to provide to the New Agent the rights contemplated
hereby, in each case consistent in all material respects with the terms of this Agreement; provided same does not alter, modify or vitiate any rights, protections, immunities or indemnities afforded to the Trustee hereunder or under the
Indenture. 
 5.13 Option to Purchase Senior Debt. (a) Without prejudice to the enforcement of remedies by the Senior
Creditors, any Person or Persons (in each case who must meet all eligibility standards contained in all relevant Senior Debt Documents) at any time or from time to time designated by the holders of more than 50% in aggregate outstanding principal
amount of the Subordinated Obligations as being entitled to exercise all default purchase options as to the Subordinated Obligations then outstanding (an “Eligible Purchaser”) shall have the right to purchase by way of assignment
(and shall thereby also assume all commitments and duties of the Senior Creditors), at any time during the exercise period described in clause (c) below of this Section 5.13, all, but not less than all, of the Senior Obligations (other
than the Senior Obligations of a Defaulting Creditor), including all principal of and accrued and unpaid interest and fees on and all prepayment or acceleration penalties and premiums in respect of all Senior Obligations outstanding at the time of
purchase; provided that at the time of (and as a condition to) any purchase pursuant to this Section 5.13, all commitments pursuant to any then outstanding Senior Credit Agreement shall have terminated and all Hedging Agreements
constituting Senior Debt Documents shall also have been terminated in accordance with their terms. Any purchase pursuant to this Section 5.13(a) shall be made as follows: 
 (1) for (x) a purchase price equal to the sum of (A) in the case of all loans, advances or other similar extensions of credit
that constitute Senior Obligations, the greater of (I) 100% and (II) the then current market-based price, of the principal amount thereof and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the date of purchase (without regard, however,
to any acceleration prepayment penalties or premiums other than customary breakage costs), (B) in the case of any Hedging Agreement, the aggregate amount then owing to each Other Creditor thereunder pursuant to the terms of the respective
Hedging Agreement, including without limitation all amounts owing to such Other Creditor as a result of the termination (or early termination) thereof plus (C) all accrued and unpaid fees, expenses, indemnities and other amounts through the
date of 









 Exhibit M 
 Page 26 
  

 
purchase; and (y) an obligation on the part of the respective Eligible Purchasers (which shall be expressly provided in the assignment documentation
described below) to pay over to the Senior Creditors any amounts recovered by such Eligible Purchasers on account of any acceleration prepayment premiums or penalties with respect to the Senior Obligations; 
 (2) with the purchase price described in preceding clause (a)(1)(x) payable in cash on the date of purchase against transfer to the
respective Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers (without recourse and without any representation or warranty whatsoever, whether as to the enforceability of any Senior Obligation or the validity, enforceability, perfection, priority or
sufficiency of any Lien securing, or guarantee or other supporting obligation for, any Senior Obligation or as to any other matter whatsoever, except the representation and warranty that the transferor owns free and clear of all Liens and
encumbrances (other than participation interests not prohibited by the Senior Credit Agreement, in which case the purchase price described in preceding clause (a)(1)(x) shall be appropriately adjusted so that the Eligible Purchaser or Eligible
Purchasers do not pay amounts represented by any participation interest which remains in effect), and has the right to convey, whatever claims and interests it may have in respect of the Senior Obligations); 
 (3) with the purchase price described in preceding clause (a)(1)(x) accompanied by a waiver by the Trustee (acting at the written
direction of the Subordinated Creditor) of all claims arising out of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby as a result of exercising the purchase option contemplated by this Section 5.13; 
 (5) with all amounts payable to the various Senior Creditors in respect of the assignments described above to be distributed to them by
the Senior Agent in accordance with their respective holdings of the various Senior Obligations; and 
 (6) with such purchase
to be made pursuant to assignment documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to, and prepared by counsel for, the Senior Agent (with the cost of such counsel to be paid by the Grantors or, if the Grantors do not make such payment,
by the respective Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers, who shall have the right to obtain reimbursement of same from the Grantors); it being understood and agreed that the Senior Agent and each other Senior Creditor shall retain all rights to
indemnification as provided in the relevant Senior Debt Documents for all periods prior to any assignment by them pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.13. 
 (b) The right to exercise the purchase option described in Section 5.13(a) above shall be exercisable and legally enforceable upon at least seven Business Days’ prior written notice of exercise (which
notice, once given, shall be irrevocable and fully binding on the respective Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers) given to the Senior Agent by an Eligible Purchaser (the “Purchase Notice”). Neither the Senior Agent nor any
other Senior Creditor shall have any disclosure obligation to any Eligible Purchaser, the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor in connection with any exercise of such purchase option. 








 Exhibit M 
 Page 27 
  

 (c) The right to purchase the Senior Obligations as described in this Section 5.13 may be
exercised (by giving the irrevocable written notice described in preceding clause (b)) during the period that (1) begins on the date occurring three Business Days after the first to occur of (x) the date of the acceleration of the final
maturity of the Loans under the Senior Credit Agreement, (y) the occurrence of the final maturity of the Loans under the Senior Credit Agreement or (z) the occurrence of a Proceeding with respect to the Company which constitutes a default
or event of default under the Senior Credit Agreement (in each case, so long as the acceleration, failure to pay amounts due at final maturity or such Proceeding constituting a default or event of default has not been rescinded or cured within such
10 Business Day Period, and so long as any unpaid amounts constituting Senior Obligations remain owing); provided, however, that if there is any failure to meet the condition described in the proviso of preceding clause
(a) hereof, the aforementioned date shall be extended until the first date upon which such condition is satisfied, and (2) ends on the 90th day after the start of the period described in clause (1) above; provided,
further, however, that in connection with such purchase right only, the Senior Agent shall provide the Subordinated Creditor with five days’ prior written notice (an “Agent Notice”) of (x) an exercise of
remedies by the Senior Agent with respect to all or any substantial portion of the Common Collateral, (y) its intention to accelerate the final maturity of the Loans or (z) the institution by the Senior Agent of any Proceeding under
applicable Bankruptcy Law with respect to any Grantor, and in each such case the period during which the Subordinated Creditor shall have the right to purchase the Senior Obligations as described in this Section 5.13 shall commence upon the
delivery to the Subordinated Creditor of such notice in accordance with the terms hereof; provided, further, however, that no prior notice by the Senior Agent of its taking any action specified in immediately preceding clauses
(x) or (y) shall be required if the Senior Agent believes fraud or willful misconduct has occurred or is occurring or determines in its discretion that such action is necessary or desirable to protect against a material impairment,
dissipation or devaluation of the Collateral. In the event an Eligible Purchaser provides a Purchase Notice to the Senior Agent within 5 days of receipt of an Agent Notice, the Senior Agent and the Senior Creditors shall not undertake any actions
described in clauses (x), (y) or (z) so long as such purchase by the Eligible Purchaser is consummated within seven Business Days of the date of delivery of such Purchase Notice. 
 (d) The obligations of the Senior Creditors to sell their respective Senior Obligations under this Section 5.13 are several and not joint and
several. To the extent any Senior Creditor (a “Defaulting Creditor”) breaches its obligation to sell its Senior Obligations under this Section 5.13, nothing in this Section 5.13 shall be deemed to require the Senior Agent
or any other Senior Creditor to purchase such Defaulting Creditor’s Senior Obligations for resale to the holders of Subordinated Obligations and in all cases, the Senior Agent and each Senior Creditor complying with the terms of this
Section 5.13 shall not be deemed to be in default of this Agreement or otherwise be deemed liable for any action or inaction of any Defaulting Creditor; provided that nothing in this clause (d) shall require any Eligible Purchaser
to purchase less than all of the Senior Obligations. 
 (e) Each Grantor irrevocably consents to any assignment effected to one or more
Eligible Purchasers pursuant to this Section 5.13 (so long as they meet all eligibility standards contained in all relevant Senior Debt Documents, other than obtaining the consent of any Grantor to an assignment to the extent required by such
Senior Debt Documents) for purposes of all Senior Debt Documents and hereby agrees that no further consent from such Grantor shall be required. 








 Exhibit M 
 Page 28 
  

 SECTION 6. Proceedings. 
 6.1 Finance Issues. If the Company or any other Grantor shall be subject to any Proceeding and the Senior Agent (acting at the direction of
the Required Senior Creditors) shall desire to permit the use of Cash Collateral on which the Senior Agent or any other creditor the Company or any other Grantor has a Lien or to permit the Company or any other Grantor to obtain financing (including
on a priming basis), whether from the Senior Creditors or any other third party under Section 362, 363 or 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any other Bankruptcy Law (each, a “Post-Petition Financing”), then each of the Trustee and
the Subordinated Creditor agrees that it will not oppose or raise any objection to or contest (or join with or support any third party opposing, objecting to or contesting), such use of Cash Collateral or Post-Petition Financing and will not request
adequate protection or any other relief in connection therewith (except as expressly agreed in writing by the Senior Agent or to the extent permitted by Section 6.3 hereof) and, to the extent the Liens securing the Senior Obligations are
subordinated to or pari passu with such Post-Petition Financing, the Liens of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor on the Common Collateral shall be deemed to be subordinated, without any further action on the part of any person or entity, to
the Liens securing such Post-Petition Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto), and the Liens securing the Subordinated Obligations shall have the same priority with respect to the Common Collateral relative to the Liens securing the Senior
Obligations as if such Post-Petition Financing had not occurred. 
 6.2 Relief from the Automatic Stay. Until the Discharge of
Senior Obligations has occurred, each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor, agrees that none of them shall seek relief, pursuant to Section 362(d) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, from the automatic stay of Section 362(a) of
the Bankruptcy Code or from any other stay in any Proceeding in respect of the Collateral, without the prior written consent of the Senior Agent. 
 6.3 Adequate Protection. Each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor agrees that none of them shall (i) oppose, object to or contest (or join with or support any third party opposing, objecting to or contesting)
(a) any request by the Senior Agent or the other Senior Creditors for adequate protection in any Proceeding (or any granting of such request) or (b) any objection by the Senior Agent or the other Senior Creditors to any motion, relief,
action or proceeding based on the Senior Agent or the other Senior Creditors claiming a lack of adequate protection or (ii) seek or accept any form of adequate protection under any of Sections 362, 363 and/or 364 of the Bankruptcy Code with
respect to Common Collateral except that, if the Senior Agent or the Senior Creditors are granted adequate protection in the form of replacement Liens on the Grantors’ assets, the Subordinated Creditor or the Trustee on its behalf may seek or
request adequate protection in the form of a replacement Lien on the same assets of the Grantors as awarded to the Senior Creditors, which Lien, however, will be subordinated to the Liens securing the Senior Obligations (including any
replacement Liens granted in respect of the Senior Obligations) and any Post-Petition Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto) on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Subordinated Obligations are so subordinated to the Senior
Obligations under this Agreement. 








 Exhibit M 
 Page 29 
  

 6.4 No Waiver. Nothing contained herein shall prohibit or in any way limit the Senior
Agent or any Senior Creditor from objecting on any basis in any Proceeding or otherwise to any action taken by the Trustee or any other Subordinated Creditor, including the seeking by the Trustee or any other Subordinated Creditor of adequate
protection or the assertion by the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor of any of its rights and remedies under the Subordinated Debt Documents or otherwise. 
 6.5 Preference Issues. If any Senior Creditor is required in any Proceeding or otherwise to turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of the Company or any other Grantor any amount (a
“Recovery”), then the Senior Obligations shall be reinstated to the extent of such Recovery and the Senior Creditors shall be entitled to a reinstatement of Senior Obligations with respect to all such recovered amounts. 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 from such date of reinstatement. Any amounts received by the Trustee or any Subordinated Creditor on account of the Subordinated Obligations after the termination of this Agreement shall, in the event of a reinstatement of this
Agreement pursuant to this Section 6.5, be held in trust for and paid over to the Senior Agent for the benefit of the Senior Creditors, for application to the reinstated Senior Obligations. This Section 6.5 shall survive termination of
this Agreement. 
 6.6 Post-Petition Interest. (a) Neither the Trustee nor the Subordinated Creditor shall oppose or seek
to challenge any claim by the Senior Agent or any other Senior Creditor for allowance in any Proceeding of Senior Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses. Regardless of whether any such claim for post-petition interest,
fees or expenses is allowed or allowable, and without limiting the generality of the other provisions of this Agreement, this Agreement expressly is intended to include and does include the “rule of explicitness” in that this Agreement
expressly entitles the Senior Creditors, and is intended to provide the Senior Creditors with the right, to receive payment of all post-petition interest, fees or expenses through distributions made pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement even
though such interest, fees and expenses are not allowed or allowable against the bankruptcy estate of the Company or any other Grantor under Section 502(b)(2) or Section 506(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or under any other provision of the
Bankruptcy Code or any other Bankruptcy Law. 
 (b) Neither the Senior Agent nor any other Senior Creditor shall oppose or seek to challenge
any claim by the Trustee or any other Subordinated Creditor for allowance in any Proceeding of Subordinated Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses so long as the Senior Creditors are receiving post-petition interest, fees
or expenses in at least the same form being requested by the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor and then only to the extent of the value of the Lien of the Trustee on behalf of the Subordinated Creditor on the Collateral (after taking into
account the value of the Lien of the Senior Agent on behalf of the Senior Creditors on the Collateral); provided, however, to the extent that any such payments are later recharacterized as payments of principal by the applicable
bankruptcy court, such payments shall, upon such recharacterization, be turned over to the Senior Creditors and applied to the Senior Obligations in accordance with Section 2.4 hereof. 








 Exhibit M 
 Page 30 
  

 (b) Without limiting the foregoing, it is the intention of the parties hereto that (and to the
maximum extent permitted by law the parties hereto agree that) the Senior Obligations (and the security therefor) constitute a separate and distinct class (and separate and distinct claims) from the Subordinated Obligations (and the security
therefor). 
 6.7 Waiver. Each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor waives any claim it may hereafter have against any
Senior Creditor arising out of the election by any Senior Creditor of the application to the claims of any First Lien Creditor of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, and/or out of any Cash Collateral or Post-Petition Financing
arrangement or out of any grant of a security interest in connection with the Collateral in any Proceeding; provided, however, that the foregoing is consistent with the terms of this Agreement. 
 6.8 Limitations. So long as the Discharge of Senior Obligations has not occurred, without the express written consent of the Senior Agent,
neither the Trustee nor the Subordinated Creditor shall (or shall join with or support any third party making, opposing, objecting or contesting, as the case may be), in any Proceeding involving any Grantor, (i) oppose, object to or contest the
determination of the extent of any Liens held by any of the Senior Creditors or the value of any claims of Senior Creditors under Section 506(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or (ii) oppose, object to or contest the payment to the Senior
Creditors of interest, fees or expenses under Section 506(b) of the Bankruptcy Code. 
 SECTION 7. Representations and
Warranties. The Subordinated Creditor hereby represents and warrants to the Senior Agent and the Senior Creditors, and the Senior Agent hereby represents and warrants (as to itself and not as to any other Person) to the Trustee and the
Subordinated Creditor, in each case as follows: 
 7.1 Existence and Power. Such Person is duly organized, validly existing and
in good standing under the laws of the state of its organization. 
 7.2 Authority. Such Person has full power and authority to
enter into, execute, deliver and carry out the terms of this Agreement and to incur the obligations provided for herein, all of which have been duly authorized by all proper and necessary action and are not prohibited by the organizational documents
of such Person. 
 7.3 Binding Agreements. This Agreement, when executed and delivered, will constitute the valid and legally
binding obligation of such Person enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’
rights generally and by equitable principles. 
 7.4 Conflicting Agreements; Litigation. No provisions of any mortgage,
indenture, contract, agreement, statute, rule, regulation, judgment, decree or order binding on such Person or affecting the property of such Person conflicts with, or requires any consent which has not already been obtained under, or would in any
way prevent the execution, delivery or performance of the terms of this Agreement. The execution, delivery and carrying out of the terms of this Agreement will not constitute a default under, or (except as contemplated hereby), result in the
creation or imposition of, or obligation to create, any Lien upon the property of 









 Exhibit M 
 Page 31 
  

 
such Person pursuant to the terms of any such mortgage, indenture, contract or agreement. No pending or, to the best of such Person’s knowledge,
threatened, litigation, arbitration or other proceedings if adversely determined would in any way prevent the performance of the terms of this Agreement. 
 7.5 No Divestiture. Solely in the case of the Subordinated Creditor, on the date hereof, the Subordinated Creditor which is signatory hereto is the current owner and holder of the PIK Notes and all other
Subordinated Obligations. 
 7.6 Default under Subordinated Debt Documents. Solely in the case of the Subordinated Creditor, on
the date hereof, save in respect of waivers granted by the Subordinated Creditor on or before the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date, the Subordinated Creditor has not received notice from the Company or any Grantor that any default or event of
default has occurred under or and remains continuing with respect to any of the Subordinated Debt Documents. 
 SECTION 8. Reliance;
Waivers; Etc. 
 8.1 Reliance. Other than any reliance on the terms of this Agreement, the Senior Agent, on behalf of itself
and the Senior Creditors under the Senior Credit Documents, acknowledges that it and the other Senior Creditors have, independently and without reliance on the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor, and based on documents and information deemed by
them appropriate, made their own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Senior Debt Documents and be bound by the terms of this Agreement and they will continue to make their own credit decision in taking or not taking any action under any
Senior Debt Document or this Agreement. The Subordinated Creditor acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance on the Senior Agent or any other Senior Creditor, and based on documents and information deemed by it appropriate, made
its own credit analysis and decision to enter into each of the Subordinated Debt Documents and be bound by the terms of this Agreement and it will continue to make its own credit decision in taking or not taking any action under the Subordinated
Debt Documents or this Agreement. 
 8.2 No Warranties or Liability. The Senior Agent, on behalf of itself and the Senior
Creditors under the Senior Debt Documents, acknowledges and agrees that each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor has made no express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the execution, validity, legality,
completeness, collectibility or enforceability of any of the Subordinated Debt Documents, the ownership of any Collateral or the perfection or priority of any Liens thereon. The Subordinated Creditor will be entitled to manage and supervise their
respective loans and extensions of credit under the Subordinated Debt Documents in accordance with law and as they may otherwise, in their sole discretion, deem appropriate. Each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor acknowledges and agrees
that each of the Senior Agent and the Senior Creditors have made no express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the execution, validity, legality, completeness, collectibility or enforceability of any of the Senior Debt
Documents, the ownership of any Collateral or the perfection or priority of any Liens thereon. The Senior Creditors will be entitled to manage and supervise their respective loans and extensions of credit under their respective Senior Debt Documents
in accordance with law and as they may 









 Exhibit M 
 Page 32 
  

 
otherwise, in their sole discretion, deem appropriate. The Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor shall have no duty to the Senior Agent or any of the other
Senior Creditors, and the Senior Agent and the other Senior Creditors shall have no duty to the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor, to act or refrain from acting in a manner which allows, or results in, the occurrence or continuance of a default
or event of default or default under any agreements with the Company or any other Grantor (including under the Senior Debt Documents and the Subordinated Debt Documents), regardless of any knowledge thereof which they may have or be charged with.

 8.3 Waiver of Liability; Indemnity. (a) Each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor also agrees that the Senior
Creditors and the Senior Agent shall have no liability to the Trustee or the Subordinated Creditor, and each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor hereby waives any claim against any Senior Creditor or the Senior Agent, arising out of any and
all actions which the Senior Creditors or the Senior Agent may take or permit or omit to take with respect to: (i) the Senior Debt Documents (including, without limitation, any failure to perfect or obtain perfected security interests in the
Senior Collateral), (ii) the collection of the Senior Obligations or (iii) the foreclosure upon, or sale, liquidation or other disposition of, any Collateral. Each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor agrees that the Senior
Creditors and the Senior Agent have no duty, express or implied, fiduciary or otherwise, to them in respect of the maintenance or preservation of the Collateral, the Senior Obligations or otherwise. Neither the Senior Agent nor any other Senior
Creditor nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents will be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so, or will be under any obligation to sell or otherwise
dispose of any Collateral upon the request of the Company or any other Grantor or upon the request of the Trustee, any other holder of Subordinated Obligations or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral
or any part thereof. Without limiting the foregoing, each Subordinated Creditor by accepting the benefits of the Subordinated Security Documents agrees that neither the Senior Agent nor any other Senior Creditor (in directing the Trustee to take any
action with respect to the Collateral) shall have any duty or obligation to realize first upon any type of Collateral or to sell, dispose of or otherwise liquidate all or any portion of the Collateral in any manner, including as a result of the
application of the principles of marshalling or otherwise, that would maximize the return to any class of Creditors holding Obligations of any type (whether Senior Obligations or Subordinated Obligations), notwithstanding that the order and timing
of any such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation may affect the amount of proceeds actually received by such class of Creditors from such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation. 
 (b) With respect to its share of the Obligations, Goldman Sachs Credit Partners L.P. (“Bank”) shall have and may exercise the same
rights and powers hereunder as, and shall be subject to the same obligations and liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein for, any other Creditor, all as if Bank were not the Senior Agent. The term “Creditors” or any
similar term shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include Bank in its individual capacity as a Creditor. Bank and its affiliates may lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Grantors or any of their
affiliates as if Bank were not acting as the Senior Agent or Trustee and without any duty to account therefor to any other Creditor. 








 Exhibit M 
 Page 33 
  

 (c) The Company and each Grantor shall reimburse the Trustee for all reasonable fees and expenses
(including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) incurred in connection with the review, drafting and negotiation of this Agreement). 
 8.4 Obligations Unconditional. All rights, interests, agreements and obligations of the Senior Agent and the other Senior Creditors and the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor, respectively, hereunder
(including the payment subordination and Lien priorities established hereby) shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of: 
 (i) any
lack of validity or enforceability of any Senior Debt Document or any Subordinated Debt Document; 
 (ii) any change in the time, manner or
place of payment of, or in any other terms of, all or any of the Senior Obligations or Subordinated Obligations, or any amendment or waiver or other modification, including any increase in the amount thereof, whether by course of conduct or
otherwise, of the terms of any Senior Debt Document or any Subordinated Debt Document; 
 (iii) any exchange of any security interest in any
Collateral or any other collateral, or any amendment, waiver or other modification, whether in writing or by course of conduct or otherwise, of all or any of the Senior Obligations or Subordinated Obligations or any guarantee thereof; 
 (iv) the commencement of any Proceeding in respect of the Company or any other Grantor; or 
 (v) any other circumstances which otherwise might constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Company or any other Grantor in respect of
the Senior Obligations, or of the Trustee or any Subordinated Creditor in respect of this Agreement. 
 8.5 Marshalling; Additional
Waiver. Each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law any rights such Person may have under applicable law to assert or otherwise to claim the benefit of, any marshalling,
appraisal, valuation or other similar right that may otherwise be available under applicable law with respect to the assets of any Grantor for the benefit of the Trustee or such Subordinated Creditor. Each of the Trustee and the Subordinated
Creditor expressly waives all notice of the acceptance by the Senior Agent and the Senior Creditors of the subordination and other terms and provisions of this Agreement and all the notices whatsoever not specifically required pursuant to the terms
of this Agreement or under the UCC in connection with any foreclosure on or sale of property of any of the Grantors and each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor expressly consents to reliance by the Senior Agent and the other Senior

 SECTION 9. Miscellaneous. 
 9.1 Conflicts. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of the Senior Debt Documents or the
Subordinated Debt Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern and control. 
 9.2 Effectiveness; Continuing Nature of
this Agreement; Severability. This Agreement shall become effective when executed and delivered by the parties hereto. This is a continuing agreement of payment subordination and Lien subordination and the Senior Creditors may continue, at any
time and without notice to the Trustee or any other Subordinated Creditor, to extend credit and other financial accommodations and lend monies to or for the benefit of the Company or any other Grantor constituting Senior Obligations in reliance
hereon. Each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor hereby waives any right it may have under applicable law to revoke this Agreement or any of the provisions of this Agreement. The terms of this Agreement shall survive, and shall continue in
full force and effect, in any Proceeding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement is intended to constitute and shall be deemed to constitute a “subordination agreement” within the meaning of Section 510(a) of
the Bankruptcy Code and is intended to be and shall be interpreted to be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted pursuant to applicable nonbankruptcy law. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction
shall not invalidate the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. All references to the Company or any other
Grantor shall include the Company or such Grantor as debtor and debtor-in-possession and any receiver or trustee for the Company or any other Grantor (as the case may be) in any Proceeding. This Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force
and effect, (i) with respect to the Trustee, the Subordinated Creditor and the Subordinated Obligations, upon the earlier of (A) the date on which the PIK Conversion occurs with regard to all PIK Notes and (B) later of (x) the
date upon which the obligations under the Indenture terminate if there are no other Subordinated Obligations outstanding on such date and (y) if there are other Subordinated Obligations outstanding on such date, the date upon which such
Subordinated Obligations terminate and (ii) with respect to the Senior Agent, the other Senior Creditors and the Senior Obligations, the date of the Discharge of Senior Obligations, subject to the rights of the Senior Creditors under
Section 6.5. 
 9.3 Amendments; Waivers. No amendment, modification or waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement
by the Trustee or the Senior Agent shall be made unless the same shall be in writing signed on behalf of each party hereto; provided that (x) the Senior Agent (at the direction of the Required Senior Creditors) may, without the written consent
of any other Creditor, agree to modifications of this Agreement for the purpose of securing additional extensions of credit (including pursuant to the Senior Credit Agreement or any Refinancing or extension thereof) and adding new creditors as
“Senior Creditors” and “Creditors” hereunder, so long as such extensions (and resulting additions) do not otherwise give rise to a violation of the express terms of the Senior Credit Agreement or the Indenture and
(y) additional Grantors may be added as parties hereto in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.18 of this Agreement. Each waiver of the terms of this Agreement, if any, shall be a waiver only with respect to the specific instance
involved and shall not impair the rights of the parties making such waiver or the obligations of the other parties to such party in any other respect or at any other time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Grantor shall have any right to 









 Exhibit M 
 Page 35 
  

 
consent to or approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement except to the extent its rights, interests, liabilities or
privileges are directly affected. In no event shall the Trustee be required to execute any amendment, waiver or modification which affects adversely its rights, duties, obligations or protections hereunder or under the Subordinated Debt Documents.

 9.4 Information Concerning Financial Condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries. The Senior Agent and the Senior
Creditors, on the one hand, and the Subordinated Creditor, on the other hand, shall each be responsible for keeping themselves informed of (a) the financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries and all endorsers and/or guarantors of
the Senior Obligations or the Subordinated Obligations and (b) all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Senior Obligations or the Subordinated Obligations. The Senior Agent and the other Senior Creditors shall have no
duty to advise the Trustee or any other Subordinated Creditor of information known to it or them regarding such condition or any such circumstances or otherwise. In the event the Senior Agent or any of the other Senior Creditors, in its or their
sole discretion, undertakes at any time or from time to time to provide any such information to the Trustee or any other Subordinated Creditor, it or they shall be under no obligation (w) to make, and the Senior Agent and the other Senior
Creditors shall not make, any express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the accuracy, completeness, truthfulness or validity of any such information so provided, (x) to provide any additional information or to
provide any such information on any subsequent occasion, (y) to undertake any investigation or (z) to disclose any information which, pursuant to accepted or reasonable commercial finance practices, such party wishes to maintain
confidential or is otherwise required to maintain confidential. 
 9.5 Subrogation. Subject to the Discharge of Senior
Obligations, with respect to the value of any payments or distributions in cash, property or other assets that the Subordinated Creditor or Trustee pay over to the Senior Agent or any of the other Senior Creditors under the terms of this Agreement,
the Subordinated Creditor and the Trustee shall be subrogated to the rights of the Senior Agent and such other Senior Creditors; provided that, each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor hereby agrees not to assert or enforce all such
rights of subrogation it may acquire as a result of any payment hereunder until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred so long as Senior Agent and the Senior Creditors make reasonable efforts to preserve the rights and remedies under the
Senior Credit Documents to which Trustee and Subordinated Creditor are subrogated. The Company and each other Grantor acknowledges and agrees that, the value of any payments or distributions in cash, property or other assets received by the Trustee
or the Subordinated Creditor and paid over to the Senior Agent or the other Senior Creditors pursuant to, and applied in accordance with, this Agreement, shall not relieve or reduce any of the Obligations owed by the Company or any other Grantor
under the Senior Debt Documents. 
 9.6 Application of Payments. All payments received by the Senior Agent or the other Senior
Creditors may be applied, reversed and reapplied, in whole or in part, to such part of the Senior Obligations as the Senior Creditors, in their sole discretion, deem appropriate. Each of the Trustee and the Subordinated Creditor assents to any
extension or postponement of the time of payment of the Senior Obligations or any part thereof and to any other indulgence 









 Exhibit M 
 Page 36 
  

 
with respect thereto, to any substitution, exchange or release of any security which may at any time secure any part of the Senior Obligations and to the
addition or release of any other Person primarily or secondarily liable therefor.

Subordinated Debt Documents, agrees to be bound by the agreements herein made by it and the Trustee, on its behalf. 
 9.10
APPLICABLE LAW, NO IMMUNITY. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO ITS CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES. STT in respect of

the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, any such immunity, and agrees not to assert any such right or claim in any such proceeding, whether in the United States, Singapore or Mauritius or elsewhere. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, STT further agrees that the waivers set forth in this Section shall have the fullest extent permitted under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976 of the United States and are intended to be irrevocable for purposes of such
