NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants and agreements 

                            1

herein contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby covenant, agree, represent and warrant as follows:

		
	1.
	Deposit and Pledge of Shares.

		
	a)
	Pledgors have deposited with Lender (pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement), and hereby pledge and collaterally assign to Lender, and grant to Lender, a first priority lien on and security interest in the capital stock of, or limited liability company interests in, and other equity interests of, each of the Corporations (such stock, limited liability company interests, and other equity, collectively, the “Stock”) as security for the payment and performance of Pledgors’ and all other Borrowers’ Obligations until such time as all such payments and performance of such Obligations have been duly completed and satisfied.  To the extent that any of the Stock is uncertificated, Pledgors hereby pledge and collaterally assign to Lender and grant to Lender a first priority lien on and security interest in such Stock and Pledgor shall cause such pledge and collateral assignment to be recorded in the books and records of the issuer(s) of such Stock.

		
	b)
	The term “Stock” also includes the following, which Pledgors hereby pledge and assign to Lender: (i) the certificates representing the Stock, any interest of Pledgors in the entries on the books of any financial intermediary (if any) pertaining to the Stock, interest of Pledgors in Stock that is uncertificated or otherwise recorded in the books and records of the issuer of such Stock, and all dividends, cash, warrants, rights, instruments and other property or proceeds from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of the Stock; (ii) all new shares of capital stock or securities created in respect of the Stock whether by stock split, stock dividend, merger, consolidation or otherwise, and all securities convertible into and warrants, options and other rights to purchase or otherwise acquire, stock of any issuer of the Stock from time to time acquired by Pledgors in any manner (which shares shall be deemed to be part of the Stock), the certificates or other instruments representing such additional shares, securities, warrants, options or other rights and any interest of Pledgors in the entries on the books of any financial intermediary pertaining to such additional shares, and all dividends, cash, warrants, rights, instruments and other property or proceeds from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of such additional shares, securities, warrants, options or other rights; and (iii) proceeds of all or any of the property described in subparts (i) and (ii) above; provided, however, that “Stock” shall not include (a) more than 65% of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock or equity interests of any Foreign Subsidiary, or of any FSHCO or (b) any shares of capital stock or equity interests in Blyth VSH Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation.

		
	c)
	Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein, to the extent that any Pledgor is an FSHCO, then recourse under the security provided for herein by each such FSHCO shall be limited to the Stock pledged to Lender by such FSHCO hereunder.  

		
	2.
	Voting and Ownership of Shares.  Until an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the Loan Agreement and, in the case of clause (B) below, so long as the Voting Notice (as defined below) has not been given, Pledgors shall be entitled to (i) vote the Stock for any purpose not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement or the Loan Agreement, and (ii) receive all income and proceeds thereof, including, without limitation, any cash dividends, to the extent permitted under the Loan Agreement.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default under the Loan Agreement, (A) all rights of a Pledgor to vote shall cease upon the giving of notice by Lender to such 

                            2

Pledgor (the “Voting Notice”), (B) upon the giving of the Voting Notice, Lender shall be entitled to exercise all voting rights and privileges whatsoever with respect to the Stock until the earlier of the Obligations being paid in full or such Events of Default being cured or waived, including without limitation, voting the Stock to remove the directors and officers of the Corporations or any of them, and to elect new directors and officers of the Corporations who shall thereafter manage the affairs of the Corporations, operate their respective properties and carry on their respective businesses and otherwise take any action with respect thereto as they shall deem necessary and appropriate in their discretion; provided that Lender shall, in its sole discretion, have the right, from time to time following and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to permit the Pledgor to exercise such rights and (C) all rights of a Pledgor to receive income shall cease and Lender shall then have the right to receive and hold as Collateral any income or proceeds of such Stock; provided that Lender shall have the right, in its sole discretion, from time to time following and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to permit the Pledgor to receive such income or proceeds.  

		
	3.
	Maintenance of Priority of Pledge.  Pledgors shall be liable for and shall from time to time pay and discharge all taxes, assessments and governmental charges imposed upon the Stock by any federal, state or local authority, except to the extent the validity thereof is being contested in good faith by proper proceedings which stay the imposition of any penalty, fine or Lien resulting from non-payment thereof and with respect to which adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP have been set aside for the payment thereof.  Pledgors shall execute and deliver such further documents and take such further actions as may be reasonably required or reasonably deemed advisable by Lender to confirm the rights of Lender in and to the Stock or otherwise to effectuate the intention of this Stock Pledge Agreement.  Each Pledgor hereby authorizes Lender to prepare and file such financing statements (including continuation statements) or amendments thereof or supplements thereto or other instruments as Lender may from time to time deem necessary or appropriate in order to perfect and maintain the security interests granted hereunder (subject to the qualifications and limitations herein) in accordance with the UCC.  

		
	4.
	Representations and Warranties and Covenants.  Pledgors hereby represent and warrant with and to Lender the following (all of such representations and warranties being continuing so long as any of the Obligations are outstanding):

		
	a)
	The pledged Stock is duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable capital stock of, or limited liability company interests in, or other equity interests of, the Corporations and constitutes all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporations (except any FSHCO) incorporated, formed or organized under the laws of the States of the United States of America and 65% of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of, or limited liability company interests in, or other equity interests of, any Foreign Subsidiary or any FSHCO and, to Pledgors’ knowledge, is not registered, nor has any Pledgor authorized the registration thereof, in the name of any Person other than such Pledgor, Lender or ABL Lender (subject to the Intercreditor Agreement).

		
	b)
	Pledgors are the record and beneficial owner of 100% of the capital stock of, or limited liability company interests in, and other equity interests of, of each Corporation (except as otherwise noted on Exhibit A or otherwise permitted pursuant to the Loan Agreement).  

		
	c)
	The pledged Stock is free and clear of all claims, liens, pledges and encumbrances of any kind, nature or description, except for Permitted Liens.

		
	d)
	The pledged Stock is not subject to any restrictions, other than pursuant to the Securities Act 

                            3

of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), relative to the transfer thereof and Pledgors have the right to transfer and hypothecate the pledged Stock free and clear of any liens, encumbrances or restrictions, except for Permitted Liens.

		
	e)
	The pledged Stock is duly and validly pledged to Lender and no consent or approval of any governmental or regulatory authority or of any securities exchange or the like, nor any consent or approval of any other third party, was or is necessary to the validity and enforceability of this Stock Pledge Agreement, except those already obtained, those relating to the public sale of the pledged Stock in connection with the exercise of the remedies by Lender hereunder and those the absence of which would not adversely affect the ability of any Pledgor to execute, deliver and perform this Stock Pledge Agreement.

		
	f)
	Pledgors shall not permit the Corporations to issue any new Stock of the Corporations, or certificate previously uncertificated Stock (or uncertificate previously certificated Stock), without the prior written consent of Lender.  None of the uncertificated Stock (i) is dealt in or traded on a securities exchange or in a securities market, (ii) by its terms expressly provides that it is a Security governed by Article 8 of the UCC or (iii) constitutes a Security or a Financial Asset.

		
	g)
	Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, Pledgors shall deliver to Lender promptly upon the receipt thereof by or on behalf of any Pledgor, all Stock.  All certificated Stock shall be delivered in suitable form for transfer by delivery or shall be accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank, in form and substance satisfactory to Lender.

		
	5.
	Events of Default.  Any “Event of Default” as defined in the Loan Agreement shall be deemed an Event of Default hereunder.

		
	6.
	Remedies Upon Event of Default.

		
	a)
	Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default that continues beyond any applicable grace period, Lender shall have the following rights and remedies, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided under the Loan Agreement and the Loan Documents or by law or at equity, all of which shall be cumulative and may be exercised from time to time, either successively or concurrently.

		
	(i)
	To declare this Stock Pledge Agreement immediately in default and to sell the Stock or any portion thereof, from time to time upon ten (10) days’ prior written notice to Pledgor of the time and place of sale (which notice Pledgors hereby agree is commercially reasonable), for cash or upon credit or for future delivery (Pledgors hereby waive all rights, if any, of marshaling the Stock and any other security for the payment of the sums owed by the Pledgors and the other Borrowers to Lender) and at the option and in the complete discretion of Lender, either:

(A)    at a public sale or sales, including a sale at any broker’s board or
exchange; or

(B)     at a private sale or sales.

Lender may bid for and acquire the Stock or any portion thereof at any public sale, free from any redemption rights of any Pledgor or any Corporation, and in lieu of paying cash therefor, may make settlement for the selling price of the Stock or any 

                            4

part thereof by crediting upon the payment of the Obligations of Pledgors and the other Borrowers under the Loan Agreement and the Loan Documents, the net selling price of the Stock, after deducting all of Lender’s costs and expenses of every kind and nature therefrom as provided under the Loan Agreement, including Lender’s attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with realizing upon the Stock. From time to time Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, postpone the time of any proposed sale of any of the Stock which has been the subject of a notice as provided above, and also, upon such notice to Pledgors as may be required by applicable law, if any, may change the time and place of such sale.

		
	(ii)
	To exercise all rights of a secured party under the UCC and all other applicable laws.

		
	b)
	In the case of any sale by Lender of the Stock or any portion thereof on credit or for future delivery (pursuant to this Section 6), which may be elected at the option and in the complete discretion of Lender, the Stock so sold may, at Lender’s option, either be delivered to the purchaser with proper security retained therefor reasonably satisfactory to Lender or retained by Lender until the selling price is paid by the purchaser, but in either event, Lender shall not incur liability in case of failure of the purchaser to take up and pay for the Stock so sold.  In case of any such failure, such Stock may again be sold by Lender in the manner provided for in this Stock Pledge Agreement.

		
	c)
	After application of the proceeds of such sale to all reasonable costs and expenses of Lender, including without limitation, legal fees and registration fees and out-of-pocket expenses, if any, in connection with the sale of the Stock, Lender shall apply the residue of the proceeds of any sale or sales of the Stock to the Obligations of Pledgors and the other Borrowers under the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement. Lender shall not incur any liability as a result of the sale of the Stock at any private sale or sales, and Pledgors hereby waive any claim arising by reason of the fact that the price or prices for which the Stock or any portion thereof is sold at such private sale or sales is less than the price that would have been obtained at a public sale or sales or is less than the amount due under the Loan Agreement and the Loan Documents, even if Lender accepts the first offer received and does not offer the Stock or any portion thereof to more than one offeree.

		
	(d)
	Pledgors hereby acknowledge and confirm that Lender may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all of the Stock by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Act and applicable state securities laws and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obligated to agree, among other things, to acquire any shares of the Stock for their own respective accounts for investment and not with a view to distribution or resale thereof. Pledgors further acknowledge and confirm that any such private sale may result in prices or other terms less favorable to the seller than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall not be deemed to have been made in a commercially unreasonable manner by reason of such less favorable prices or terms, and Lender shall be under no obligation to take any steps in order to permit the Stock to be sold at a public sale.  Lender shall not be under any obligation to delay a sale of any of the Stock for any period of time necessary to permit any issuer thereof to register such Stock for public sale under the Act or under applicable state securities laws.

		
	7.
	Future Stock Issuances.  Any and all additional Stock issued by any Corporation to Pledgors after the Closing Date shall be pledged as Collateral to Lender; provided however that no more than 65% of the issued and outstanding shares of Stock of any Foreign Subsidiary or any FSHCO is required 

                            5

to be pledged hereunder.  Pledgors hereby agree to sign any additional documentation required by Lender in connection with complying with this Paragraph 7.

		
	8.
	No Waiver. The undertakings of Pledgors hereunder shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be impaired by, (a) any exercise or non-exercise, or any waiver by Lender of any right, remedy, power or privilege under the Loan Agreement or the Loan Documents, (b) any amendment to or modification of the Loan Agreement or the Loan Documents, or (c) the release or discharge or termination of any security or guarantee for any of the Obligations of Pledgors and the other Borrowers under the Loan Agreement or the Loan Documents, whether or not Pledgors or any other Borrower shall have notice or knowledge of any of the foregoing. Lender’s prior recourse to any part or all of the Collateral under the Loan Agreement or the Loan Documents shall not constitute a condition of any demand, suit or proceeding for payment or collection of the Obligations of Pledgors or any other Borrower under the Loan Agreement or the Loan Documents.  No act, failure or delay by Lender shall constitute a waiver of Lender of its rights and remedies hereunder or otherwise.  No single or partial waiver by Lender of any default or right or remedy that it may have shall operate as a waiver of any other default, right or remedy or of the same default, right or remedy on a future occasion.  Except as otherwise required in the Loan Agreement, each Pledgor waives presentment, notice of dishonor and protest, notice of intent to accelerate and notice of acceleration of all instruments included in or evidencing any of the Obligations of such Pledgor and the other Borrowers under the Loan Agreement or the Loan Documents, and any and all other notices and demands whatsoever.

		
	9.
	Notices. All notices, elections, requests, demands and other communications hereunder shall be effected in the manner provided for in Paragraph 12.3 of the Loan Agreement.

		
	10.
	GOVERNING LAW.  THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN THE CONSTRUCTION OF THIS STOCK PLEDGE AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND REMEDIES AND DUTIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES (BUT GIVING EFFECT TO FEDERAL LAWS RELATING TO NATIONAL BANKS).

		
	11.
	Successors and Assigns.  This Stock Pledge Agreement shall bind Pledgors, and their successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of Lender, and its successors and assigns.

		
	12.
	Time of Essence.     Time shall be of the essence in the performance of the obligations of Pledgors hereunder.

		
	13.
	Definitions. All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Loan Agreement.

		
	14.
	Entire Agreement.  This Stock Pledge Agreement shall constitute the entire agreement between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof, shall rescind all prior agreement and understandings between the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof, and shall not be changed or terminated orally.

		
	15.
	Counterparts.  This Stock Pledge Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Stock Pledge Agreement by facsimile or electronic mail shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Stock Pledge Agreement.

                            6

		
	16.
	Termination.  At such time as the Obligations have been paid in cash in full (other than indemnification and other contingent obligations for which no amount is due and owing and for which no claim has been made), this Stock Pledge Agreement shall automatically terminate, and all Liens on the pledged Stock shall automatically be released.  Lender shall promptly execute such evidence of termination and deliver to Pledgors any certificates and related documents evidencing the pledged Stock held by Lender hereunder, and execute and deliver to Pledgors any other documents as Pledgor shall reasonably request in connection with such termination.

		
	17.
	Release Prior to Termination.     Nothing herein is intended to prevent the due release of a portion of the pledged Stock if, and to the extent that, such release is permitted by the Loan Agreement.  In connection with any such release, upon the request of Pledgors, the Lender shall promptly deliver to Pledgors such duly released Stock. 

		
	18.
	Consent of Issuers of Stock.  Each issuer of Stock party to this Agreement hereby acknowledges, consents and agrees to the grant of the security interests in such Stock by the applicable Pledgor pursuant to this Agreement, together with all rights accompanying such security interest as provided by this Agreement and applicable law and the exercise of remedies in connection with such security interest, in each case notwithstanding any anti-assignment provisions in any operating agreement, limited partnership agreement or similar organizational or governance documents of such issuer.

		
	19.
	Submission to Jurisdiction; Venue; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  The terms of Section 12.13 and 12.14 of the Loan Agreement with respect to governing law, submission to jurisdiction, venue and waiver of jury trial are incorporated herein by reference, mutatis mutandis, and the parties hereto agree to such terms.

Section 2.    Lien Priorities.
2.1    Lien Subordination.
(a)    Notwithstanding (i) the date, manner or order of grant, attachment or perfection of any Junior Lien in respect of any Collateral or of any Senior Lien in respect of any Collateral, (ii) any provision of the UCC, any applicable law, any Collateral Document or any Loan Document, or (iii) whether the ABL Secured Party or the Term Loan Secured Party, in each case, whether directly or through agents, holds possession of, or has control over, all or any part of the Collateral, each  Secured Party, hereby agrees that:
(A)    (x) any Lien of the ABL Secured Party on the ABL Priority Collateral, whether now or hereafter held by or on behalf of or purported to be held by or on behalf of the ABL Secured Party or any agent, or trustee or bailee therefor, regardless of how acquired, whether by grant, statute, operation of law, subrogation or otherwise, and whether or not such Lien is subordinated to any Lien securing any other obligation, shall be and shall remain senior and prior to any Lien of the Term Loan Secured Party on the ABL Priority Collateral and (y) any Lien on such ABL Priority Collateral now or hereafter held or purported to be held by or on behalf of the Term Loan Secured Party or any agent or trustee therefor securing any Term Loan Obligations, regardless of how acquired, whether by grant, statute, operation of law, subrogation or otherwise, shall be junior and subordinate in all respects to all Liens thereon that secure any ABL Claims; and
(B)    (x) any Lien of the Term Loan Secured Party on the Term Loan Priority Collateral, whether now or hereafter held by or on behalf of or purported to be held by or 

15

on behalf of the Term Loan Secured Party or any agent, or trustee or bailee therefor, regardless of how acquired, whether by grant, statute, operation of law, subrogation or otherwise, and whether or not such Lien is subordinated to any Lien securing any other obligation, shall be and shall remain senior and prior to any Lien of the ABL Secured Party on the Term Loan Priority Collateral and (y) any Lien on such Term Loan Priority Collateral now or hereafter held or purported to be held by or on behalf of the ABL Secured Party or any agent or trustee therefor securing any ABL Obligations, regardless of how acquired, whether by grant, statute, operation of law, subrogation or otherwise, shall be junior and subordinate in all respects to all Liens thereon that secure any Term Loan Claims.
(b)    It is acknowledged and agreed that (i) all or a portion of the ABL Claims consists or may consist of indebtedness that is revolving in nature, and the amount thereof that may be outstanding at any time or from time to time may be increased or reduced and subsequently reborrowed and (ii) subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement and the applicable Senior Documents, the ABL Claims, Excess ABL Claims, Term Loan Claims and Excess Term Loan Claims may be increased, extended, renewed, replaced, restated, supplemented, restructured, repaid, refunded, Refinanced (subject to Section 5.3) or otherwise amended or modified from time to time, all without affecting the subordination of the Junior Liens hereunder or the provisions of this Agreement defining the relative rights of the Secured Parties.
(c)    All Liens with respect to the Senior Collateral securing any Senior Claims shall be and remain senior in all respects and prior to all Liens with respect to the Senior Collateral securing any Junior Claims for all purposes, whether or not such Liens securing any Senior Claims are subordinated to any Lien securing any other obligation of any Grantor or any other Person (but only to the extent that such subordination is permitted pursuant to the terms of the Senior Documents, or as contemplated in Section 6.1).
(d)    The ABL Secured Party and the Term Loan Secured Party hereby agree that the terms of this Agreement, including the priorities and subordination set forth above in this Section 2.1, shall govern notwithstanding (i) that all or part of the ABL Claims, Excess ABL Claims, Term Loan Claims and Excess Term Loan Claims are determined or deemed unenforceable or invalidated or that any Liens granted or purported to be granted securing payment and performance of all or part of the ABL Claims, Excess ABL Claims, Term Loan Claims or Excess Term Loan Claims are not perfected or are determined or deemed to be void, invalid or lapsed or subordinated, avoided, disallowed or otherwise ineffective, in each case in any judicial proceeding or otherwise or (ii) any other circumstance of any kind or nature whatsoever.
2.2    Prohibition on Contesting Liens.  Each of the Senior Secured Party and Junior Secured Party agrees that neither shall (and each hereby waives any right to) contest or support any other Person in contesting the priority, validity or enforceability of a Lien held by or on behalf of such other Secured Party in the Collateral; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of any Lender to enforce this Agreement, including the priority of the Liens provided in Sections 2.1.
2.3    No New Liens.  Each Grantor hereby agrees not to grant, or to permit any of its Subsidiaries to grant, except as permitted by the Loan Agreements, any Lien on any of its respective assets securing any Secured Claims, to any Person other than the Applicable Secured Parties, subject to the priorities set forth in Section 2.1.  Subject to Section 6, each Secured Party agrees not to accept the grant of any Lien on any of the Grantors’ assets unless the other Secured Party has been granted a similar Lien on such assets, subject to the Lien priority set forth in Section 2.1 and other terms hereof; provided, however, that Liens 

16

granted to ABL Secured Party in connection with (a) the pledge of the stock of any foreign Subsidiary in excess of 65% of such stock and (b) securing only the Swiss subline shall not be required to be pledged to the Term Lender and shall not be subject to the provisions of this Section 2.3.  To the extent that the foregoing provisions are not complied with for any reason, each Secured Party, on behalf of the Applicable Secured Party, agrees (without the need for any further consent of any Grantor) to the extent applicable that it shall be deemed to also hold and have held such Lien as agent or bailee for the benefit of each other Secured Party as security for the Secured Parties represented by such other Secured Party (subject to the Lien priority set forth in Section 2.1 and the other terms hereof) and shall promptly notify the other Secured Party in writing of the existence of such Lien upon becoming aware thereof (but shall have no liability for failing to provide such notice).
2.4    Similar Liens and Agreements.  Except as set forth in Section 2.3, each Secured Party agrees that it is its intention that, although the Liens securing their respective claims are separate and distinct, the Collateral securing the ABL Obligations and Term Loan Obligations be identical.  In furtherance of the foregoing, the parties hereto agree, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement:
(a)    upon request by any other Secured Party, to cooperate in good faith (and to direct their counsel to cooperate in good faith) from time to time in order to determine the specific items included in the Collateral and the steps taken to perfect their respective Liens thereon and the identity of the respective parties obligated under the applicable  Loan Documents; and
(b)    that, subject to the provisions in Section 2.3 above, the documents and agreements creating or evidencing the Collateral, and guarantees related thereto, in each case, with respect to the ABL Obligations and the Term Loan Obligations shall be in all material respects the same forms of documents other than with respect to the lien priority of the obligations thereunder.
2.5    No Debt Subordination.  Subject to the provisions of Section 4.2, nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to subordinate any claim for payment by a holder of Junior Claims to a claim for payment by a holder of Senior Claims so long as such receipt is not the direct or indirect result of the exercise by the Applicable Secured Party of rights or remedies as a secured creditor or enforcement of any Lien held by such Secured Party in contravention of this Agreement .
2.6    Separate Liens.  Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that (a) the grants of Liens pursuant to the Collateral Documents constitute separate and distinct grants of Liens and (b) because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Collateral, the Secured Claims of any Class in respect of any Collateral are fundamentally different from the Secured Claims of any other Class in respect of such Collateral, and the Secured Claims of different Classes in respect of any Collateral must be separately classified in any Insolvency Proceeding.  To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, if it is held that, in respect of any Collateral, the Secured Claims in respect of such Collateral constitute only one secured claim (rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims), then the Junior Secured Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that all distributions shall be made as if there were two separate classes in seniority of secured claims against the Grantors in respect of any Collateral (with the effect that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the Senior Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the Junior Secured Parties), the Senior Secured Parties shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them in respect of principal, pre-petition interest and other claims, all amounts owing in respect of post-petition interest before any distribution is made in respect of the claims held by the Junior Secured Parties with respect to the Senior Collateral, with the Junior 

17

Secured Parties hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the Senior Secured Parties amounts otherwise received or receivable by them 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 Junior Secured Parties).
Section 3.    Enforcement.
3.1    Exercise of Remedies.
(a)    Prior to the Payment in Full of the Senior Claims in respect of any Senior Collateral, whether or not any Insolvency Proceeding has been commenced by or against any Grantor, with respect to such Senior Collateral:
(i)    the Senior Secured Parties shall have the exclusive right to take or cause to be taken any Enforcement Action and make determinations regarding release, Disposition (including under §363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code) or restrictions with respect to such Senior Collateral without any consultation with, or the consent of any Junior Secured Party, which rights shall include, without limitation, the rights of an agent appointed by the Senior Secured Party to sell or otherwise dispose of Senior 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 UCC and of a secured creditor under Bankruptcy Laws of any applicable jurisdiction; and
(ii)    no Junior Secured Party shall (A) take or cause to be taken any Enforcement Action against any Senior Collateral, (B) object to any Enforcement Action brought by any Senior Secured Party or any other exercise of any rights and remedies relating to such Senior Collateral under the Senior Documents or otherwise, or (C) object to the forbearance by any of the Senior Secured Parties from bringing or pursuing any Enforcement Action; provided that if (x) a payment default exists with respect to the Junior Claims or (y) an Acceleration Event has occurred with respect to the Junior Documents of any holder of a Junior Lien, and subject at all times to the provisions of Sections 2.1 and 4, after a period of 150 days has elapsed during which such payment default shall not have been cured or such Acceleration Event shall not have been rescinded or waived in accordance with the applicable Junior Documents, as applicable (the “Standstill Period”), which Standstill Period shall commence on the date of receipt by the applicable Senior Secured Party of written notice from the applicable Junior Secured Party of the occurrence of such payment default or Acceleration Event, the Junior Secured Party may take Enforcement Action with respect to any Senior Collateral upon 5 Business Days’ prior written notice to the Senior Secured Party (which notice may be given prior to the completion of the Standstill Period), but only if the Senior Secured Party is not diligently pursuing an Enforcement Action with respect to all or any material portion of the Senior Collateral; provided, that (1) any Senior Collateral or any proceeds of Senior Collateral received by the Junior Secured Party in connection with the enforcement of such Lien shall be applied in accordance with Section 4 and (2) nothing in this Section 3.1(a)(ii) shall be construed to authorize the Junior Secured Party to sell any Senior Collateral free of the Lien of the Senior Secured Party.
(b)    In exercising rights and remedies with respect to any Senior Collateral, the Senior Secured Party shall, except as otherwise expressly provided herein (including paragraph (a) above), have the exclusive right to enforce rights, exercise remedies (including set-off and the right to credit bid its debt) and make determinations regarding the release, Disposition, or restrictions with respect to the Senior 

18

Collateral; provided, that (x) to the extent a purchase notice pursuant to Section 7.4 has been delivered in accordance with such section and so long as no Exigent Circumstances exist, no ABL Secured Party shall commence or continue any Enforcement Action (other than collection of accounts receivable and other actions permitted under the ABL Documents when no Event of Default exists thereunder) without the consent of the Term Loan Secured Party and, further, the ABL Secured Party agrees to provide prompt notice (in reasonable detail) of such Exigent Circumstance to the Term Loan Secured Party and agrees to consult with the Term Loan Secured Party prior to the commencement of any Enforcement Action with respect to any Senior Collateral based on such Exigent Circumstances; provided that, the restriction on Enforcement Action by the ABL Secured Party under this clause (x) shall terminate if the purchase and sale contemplated in Section 7.4 shall not be closed in accordance with the provisions thereof.
(c)    Notwithstanding the limitations set forth in Section 3.1(a) above, each Junior Secured Party may:
(i)    file a claim or statement of interest with respect to the Junior Claims; provided that an Insolvency Proceeding has been commenced by or against any Borrower or any other Grantor;
(ii)    take any action (not adverse to the priority status of the Senior Liens on the Senior Collateral securing any Senior Claims, or the rights of the Senior Secured Party of the highest Class to exercise remedies in respect thereof) in order to create, perfect, preserve or protect its Junior Lien on the Senior Collateral;
(iii)    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 its claims including any claims secured by the Senior Collateral, if any, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Agreement;
(iv)    vote on any plan of reorganization, file any proof of claim, make other filings and make any arguments and motions that are, in each case, not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement;
(v)    present a cash only bid at any Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code hearing or with respect to any other Disposition of Senior Collateral; and
(vi)    join in the enforcement actions commenced by the applicable Senior Secured Parties in respect of the Senior Collateral to the extent that such Senior Secured Party reasonably determines that by joining in such action such Junior Secured Party will not delay, interfere with or otherwise prejudice the rights of the applicable Senior Secured Parties.
(d)    (A) Subject to Sections 3.1(a) and (b), each Junior Secured Party agrees that it will not take any action that would hinder any exercise of remedies by the Senior Secured Party under the Senior Documents or that is otherwise prohibited hereunder, including, to the extent prohibited hereunder, any sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of the Senior Collateral, whether by foreclosure or otherwise.
(vii)    To the extent that the Senior Secured Party acts in accordance with the terms of the Senior Documents and applicable law, each Junior Secured Party hereby (A) waives any and all rights it may have as a junior lien creditor or otherwise to object to 

19

the manner in which the Senior Secured Party seeks to enforce or collect its Senior Claims or the Senior Liens securing its Senior Claims granted in any of the Senior Documents and (B) consents to all such actions, including, without limitation, the exclusive right of such Senior Secured Parties to credit bid with respect to any disposition solely of its Senior Collateral; and
(viii)    Each Junior Secured Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that no covenant, agreement or restriction contained in any Junior Document (other than this Agreement) shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights and remedies of the Senior Secured Party with respect to the Senior Collateral as set forth in this Agreement and the Senior Documents.
3.2    Tracing of and Priorities in Proceeds.
(a)    Each Secured Party agrees that prior to the commencement of (i) any Enforcement Action by any Secured Party or (ii) an Insolvency Proceeding in respect of any Grantor, any proceeds of Collateral which are used by any Grantor to acquire other property which is Collateral shall not (as among the various Secured Parties) be treated as proceeds of Collateral for purposes of determining the relative priorities in the Collateral which was so acquired.
(b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, each of the Secured Parties agrees that after the earliest of (i) receipt of written notice of the commencement of any Enforcement Action by any other Secured Party and (ii) an Insolvency Proceeding in respect of any Grantor, each such Person shall cooperate in good faith to identify the proceeds of the ABL Priority Collateral and the Term Loan Priority Collateral, as the case may be.  Each of the ABL Secured Party and the Term Loan Secured Party may request from each other, from time to time, an accounting of the identification of the proceeds of Collateral (and the ABL Secured Party and the Term Loan Secured Party, as the case may be, upon which such request is made shall deliver such accounting (to the extent reasonably available) reasonably promptly after such request is made).
3.3    Exercise of Remedies as Unsecured Creditors.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, to the extent not inconsistent with or in contravention of the terms of this Agreement, each Junior Secured Party may exercise its rights and remedies as an unsecured creditor against the Grantors in accordance with the terms of the applicable Junior Documents and applicable law.  In the event any Junior Secured Party in respect of any Collateral becomes a judgment lien creditor in respect of such Collateral as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor, such judgment lien shall be subordinated to any Lien on such Collateral securing any Senior Claim in respect of such Collateral on the same basis and to the same extent as the Liens on such Collateral securing such Junior Secured Party’s Claims are subordinated to the Liens on such Collateral securing such Senior Claim under this Agreement.
3.4    Collateral Access Rights.
(a)    Subject and in addition to the restrictions on exercise of remedies contained in Section 3.1, (i) the Term Loan Secured Party agrees that it will not sell any Collateral (including, without limitation, any Term Loan Priority Collateral) in foreclosure of its Liens thereon unless it has given the ABL Secured Party written notice of its intent to take Enforcement Action (an “Enforcement Notice”) with respect thereto at least 10 Business Days prior thereto of its intention to foreclose on such Liens, and (ii) the ABL Secured Party agrees that it will not sell any Collateral (including, without limitation, any ABL Priority Collateral) in foreclosure of its Liens thereon unless it has given the Term Loan Secured Party an Enforcement Notice with respect thereto at least 10 Business Days prior thereto of its intention to foreclose on such Liens.

20

(b)    If any Term Loan Secured Party or any of their respective agents or representatives obtains possession or physical control of any of any Term Loan Priority Collateral consisting of Real Property or equipment located therein (collectively, the “Mortgaged Premises”) such Term Loan Secured Party, as applicable, will promptly notify in writing the ABL Secured Party of that fact and the ABL Secured Party shall, within 5 Business Days thereafter, notify in writing the Term Loan Secured Party as to whether (or not) the ABL Secured Party desires to exercise access rights under this Agreement, at which time the parties shall confer in good faith to coordinate with respect to the ABL Secured Party’s exercise of such access rights.  Access rights may apply to differing parcels of Mortgaged Premises at differing times (i.e., such Term Loan Secured Party may obtain possession of one location at a different time than it obtains possession of other properties), in which case, a differing Access Period may apply to each such property or location.
(c)    Upon delivery of written notice to the Term Loan Secured Party as provided in clause (b) above with respect to the applicable Mortgaged Premises, the Access Period shall commence for the subject parcel of Mortgaged Premises.  During the Access Period, the ABL Secured Party and its agents, representatives and designees shall have a non-exclusive right to have access to, and a rent free right to use, the Term Loan Priority Collateral for the purpose of arranging for and effecting the inspection, safeguarding, disposition, completion, collection or removal of ABL Priority Collateral, including the production, completion, packaging and other preparation or removal of such ABL Priority Collateral for disposition and/or the removal or copying of books and records relating to ABL Priority Collateral at that location and/or protecting the ABL Priority Collateral.  During any such Access Period, the ABL Secured Party and its agents, representatives and designees, may continue to operate, service, maintain, process and sell the ABL Priority Collateral, as well as to engage in bulk sales or auctions of ABL Priority Collateral at the Mortgaged Premises.  The ABL Secured Party shall take reasonable care and promptly repair or replace, as is reasonable, any damaged (ordinary wear-and-tear excepted) Term Loan Priority Collateral that is used by it during the Access Period to the extent such damage is caused by it or its agents, representatives or designees and comply with all applicable laws in connection with its use or occupancy of the Mortgaged Premises and the other Term Loan Priority Collateral.  The ABL Secured Party shall indemnify and hold harmless the Term Loan Secured Party from and against (a) any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense (including reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel) arising out of any claim asserted by any third party to the extent resulting from any acts or omissions by the ABL Secured Party, or any of its agents or representatives, in connection with the exercise by the ABL Secured Party of the rights of access set forth in this Section 3.4; except that, the ABL Secured Party shall not have any obligation under this Section 3.4 to indemnify the Term Loan Secured Party with respect to a matter covered hereby to the extent directly resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Term Loan Secured Party, as determined pursuant to a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.  During the actual occupation, use and/or control by the ABL Secured Party, its agents or representatives, of any Mortgaged Premises during the Access Period, the ABL Secured Party shall be obligated to pay to the Term Loan Secured Party (for the account of the Grantors to be paid directly to the Term Loan Priority Account unless otherwise specified in writing from time to time by the Term Loan Secured Party) all utilities, taxes and all other reasonable out of pocket maintenance and operating costs of such Mortgaged Property (or, if not occupied in full by the ABL Secured Party, the proportional amount thereof based on the portion of such Mortgaged Property occupied by the ABL Secured Party) during any such period of actual occupation, use and/or control by the ABL Secured Party. In no event shall the ABL Secured Party have any liability to the Term Loan Secured Parties hereunder as a result of any condition (including any environmental condition, claim or liability) on or with respect to the Mortgaged Premises or other Collateral existing prior to the date of the exercise of its access rights under this Agreement nor for any diminution in the value of the Mortgaged Premises caused by the absence of the ABL Priority Collateral therefrom.  The ABL Secured Party, on the one hand, and the Term Loan Secured Party, on the other hand, will cooperate and use reasonable efforts to 

21

ensure that their activities during the Access Period as described above do not interfere materially with the activities of the others as described above, including the rights of the Term Loan Secured Party with respect to the applicable Term Loan Priority Collateral to commence foreclosure on such Term Loan Priority Collateral or to show the Term Loan Priority Collateral to prospective purchasers and to ready the Term Loan Priority Collateral for sale.
(d)    If any order or injunction is issued or any stay in force which prohibits the ABL Secured Party from exercising any of its access rights with respect to the applicable Term Loan Priority Collateral, then at the ABL Secured Party’s written request, the Access Period will be stayed during the period of such prohibition and upon the termination, expiration or vacation of such prohibition, the Access Period will continue thereafter for the number of days remaining in the Access Period (calculated without reference to the days during which such prohibition was in effect).
Failure to give any notice by any Secured Party to any other Secured Party under this Section 3.4 shall not impair or affect the enforceability of this agreement or validity of notice against any Grantor.
3.5    Collateral License/Access to Information.
(a)    For the purpose of enabling the ABL Secured Party, during the continuance of an Event of Default under the ABL Loan Agreement, to the extent reasonably necessary in the good faith determination of the ABL Secured Party to exercise rights and remedies hereunder or under any ABL Loan Document at such time as the ABL Secured Party shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, and for no other purpose, each Grantor by its acknowledgment of this Agreement hereby (i) grants to the ABL Secured Party, to the fullest extent of the Grantors’ rights to grant a license or sublicense thereof, an irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to such Grantor) to use any of the furniture, equipment, general intangibles, instruments, documents and Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor, wherever the same may be located, including in such license access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout thereof (collectively, the “Collateral License”) to process, ship, produce, store, complete, supply, lease, sell or otherwise dispose of any ABL Priority Collateral in any lawful manner solely in connection with any Enforcement Action and (ii) agrees that none of the ABL Secured Party or any agent or representative thereof shall be required, prior to disposing of or as a condition to the disposition of all or any portion of the Collateral during the exercise of remedies during the continuance of an Event of Default under the ABL Loan Agreement, to remove, deface or otherwise dispose of any trademark or other Intellectual Property of the Grantors that may be printed upon, stamped upon, adhered to by application of stickers or otherwise or otherwise incorporated as part of any Collateral.
(b)    The Term Loan Secured Party hereby grants (to the full extent of its rights and interests), and consents to the grant by any Grantor, to the ABL Secured Party and its agents, representatives and designees, in each case, without any representation, warranty or obligation whatsoever, the Collateral License (which will be binding on any successor or assignee of the Intellectual Property).
(c)    If any Secured Party takes actual possession of any documentation of a Grantor relating to any Collateral (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 any Secured Party), then upon request of any other Secured Party and reasonable advance written notice, the applicable Secured Party with possession will permit the other Secured Party and its respective agents, representatives and designees to inspect and copy such documentation and to remove copies of such documentation to the extent not also then required by the Applicable Secured Party with possession.

(ix)    in connection with any Enforcement Action permitted under this Agreement; or
(x)    that is subject to a Disposition (other than in connection with an Enforcement Action) permitted by the Senior Documents of such Senior Secured Party (or pursuant to a valid waiver or consent to a transaction otherwise prohibited by such Senior Documents); provided that (x) the proceeds thereof are applied in accordance with Section 4.1 hereof (as if they were proceeds received in connection with an Enforcement Action), (y) such Disposition occurs prior to the Payment in Full of the Senior Claims held by such Senior Secured Party and (z) if the Disposition is prohibited by any provision of the Loan Agreement of the Junior Secured Parties, the consent of the Junior Secured Parties is received unless (I) such Disposition occurs during the continuation of any Event of Default under the Loan Agreement of the Senior Secured Parties or (II) such Disposition is solely as a result of the existence of an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement of the Junior Secured Parties,
then in each case of clauses (i) and (ii) above, the Liens, if any, of the Junior Secured Parties on such part of the Collateral shall be automatically, unconditionally and simultaneously released.

24

(c)    The applicable Junior Secured Party, shall promptly execute and deliver to the applicable Senior Secured Party such termination and partial release statements and such other documents as such Senior Secured Party shall reasonably request to evidence such release or subordination.

(e)    The Liens of Junior Secured Party, in accordance with the provisions of applicable law, shall automatically attach to any proceeds of any Senior Collateral subject to any such Disposition to the extent not used to repay Senior Claims.
(f)    Until the Payment in Full of the Senior Claims, each Junior Secured Party hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the applicable Senior Secured Party and any officer or agent thereof, 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 such Junior Secured Party or such holder or in the applicable Senior Secured Party’s own name, from time to time in such Senior Secured Party’s discretion, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Section 5.1, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments that may be necessary to effectively confirm any such release or otherwise accomplish the purposes of this Section 5.1, including any endorsements or other instruments of transfer or release or any termination statements.

Until the Payment in Full of the Term Loan Claims, the Term Loan Secured Party shall have the sole and exclusive right, as against the other Secured Parties, to adjust settlement of insurance claims compensating for the loss, theft or destruction of Term Loan Priority Collateral.

Until the Payment in Full of ABL Claims has occurred, if any Grantor (x) shall be subject to any Insolvency Proceeding and the ABL Secured Party shall agree to permit the use of “Cash Collateral” (as such term is defined in Section 363(a) of the Bankruptcy Code) constituting ABL Priority Collateral (“ABL Cash Collateral”) or (y) seeks to obtain financing, from the ABL Secured Parties or any other Person consented to by the ABL Secured Party under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar Bankruptcy Law secured by a Lien on such ABL Priority Collateral (“ABL DIP Financing”), then the Term Loan Secured Party agrees that it will consent to and not oppose, raise objection to or contest (or join with or support any third party opposing, objecting or contesting) such ABL Cash Collateral use or ABL DIP Financing (including an ABL DIP Financing which “rolls up” or pays any ABL Obligations that existed prior to the commencement of the Insolvency Proceeding other than Excess ABL Claims) so long as such ABL Cash Collateral use or ABL DIP Financing meets the following requirements (the “ABL DIP Conditions”): (1) the Term Loan Secured Parties retain the right to object to any ancillary agreements or arrangements regarding the ABL Cash Collateral use or ABL DIP Financing that are materially prejudicial to their interests in the Term Loan Priority Collateral, (2) the Term Loan Secured Party retains its Lien on the ABL Priority Collateral (including proceeds thereof arising after the commencement of such Insolvency Proceeding) to secure the Term Loan Claims which Lien is junior and subordinate only to Liens securing the ABL DIP Financing and any remaining ABL Claims other than Excess ABL Claims and any Permitted Liens (as defined in the ABL Loan Documents), and as to the Term Loan Priority Collateral only, such Lien of the Term Loan Secured Party has the same priority as existed prior to the commencement of such Insolvency Proceeding and any Lien on Term Loan Priority Collateral securing such ABL DIP Financing is junior and subordinate to the Lien of the Term Loan Secured Parties on the Term Loan Priority Collateral, (3) if the ABL Secured Party requests adequate protection Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral, the Term Loan Secured Party receives as adequate protection a replacement Lien on post-petition assets of each Grantor to the same extent granted to the ABL Secured Party to secure the ABL DIP Financing and any remaining ABL Claims which replacement lien shall be subordinate only to the Liens in such post-petition assets securing the ABL DIP Financing and any remaining ABL Claims other than Liens securing the Excess ABL Claims (provided further, that the inability of the Term Loan Secured Party to receive as adequate protection a Lien on Proceeds of actions under Chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code shall not affect the agreements and waivers set forth in this Section 6.1(a) so long as Liens on Proceeds of such actions are not given as security for and do not secure the Excess ABL Claims), (4) the terms of the ABL DIP Financing do not expressly require the liquidation of the ABL Priority Collateral prior to a date that is five (5) months after the filing date of the petition commencing the Insolvency Proceeding, (5) the aggregate principal amount 

31

of the ABL DIP Financing (excluding the amount of ABL Obligations (other than Excess ABL Claims) “rolled up” or paid pursuant to the ABL DIP Financing) does not exceed the ABL DIP Amount, (6) any “carve-out” for the payment of professional fees of the Grantor estate and the United States Trustee’s fees or other similar and customary administrative priority expenses or claims consented to in writing by ABL Secured Party to be paid prior to the Payment in Full of ABL Claims (other than Excess ABL Claims) shall be reasonable and customary in the circumstances of the Insolvency Proceeding, (7) the proposed ABL Cash Collateral use or ABL DIP Financing does not compel any Grantor to seek confirmation of or approval for any plan of reorganization or other plan of similar effect under any Bankruptcy Laws that is inconsistent with this Agreement, and (8) the ABL DIP Financing is otherwise subject to the terms of this Agreement; provided, that the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.1(a) shall not prevent the Term Loan Secured Party from objecting to any provision in any ABL Cash Collateral order or ABL DIP Financing documentation, as applicable (including an order of a court approving such ABL Cash Collateral use or ABL DIP Financing), relating to any provision or the content of a plan of reorganization or other plan of similar effect under any Bankruptcy Law.
(x)    The Term Loan Secured Party will subordinate any Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral (and in any other assets (other than Term Loan Priority Collateral) that may serve as collateral for any ABL DIP Financing as to which the ABL DIP Conditions have been satisfied) to the Liens securing such ABL DIP Financing.  If, in connection with any ABL Cash Collateral use or ABL DIP Financing, any Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral held by the ABL Secured Party are subject to a surcharge or are subordinated to an administrative priority claim, a professional fee “carve-out,” or fees owed to the United States Trustee, then the Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral of the Term Loan Secured Party shall also be subordinated to such interest or claim and shall remain subordinated to the Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral of the ABL Secured Party consistent with this Agreement.  To the extent the ABL Secured Party does not request adequate protection Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral in connection with an ABL DIP Financing, the Term Loan Secured Party will not request adequate protection Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral.
(xi)    If such ABL Cash Collateral use or ABL DIP Financing, as applicable, meets some, but not all, of the applicable ABL DIP Conditions, then Term Loan Secured Party agrees that it will only withhold its consent or raise objections to such ABL Cash Collateral use and such ABL DIP Financing based upon the ABL DIP Condition(s) which are not met and will not withhold its consent or object on any other basis and, if ABL DIP Financing is involved and any permitted objection of Term Loan Secured Party is withdrawn, overruled, or otherwise eliminated, Term Loan Secured Party will subordinate its Liens in the ABL Priority Collateral (and in any other assets (other than Term Loan Priority Collateral) that may serve as collateral for such ABL DIP Financing) to the Liens securing such ABL DIP Financing.
(f)    Term Loan Obligations.  Until the Payment in Full of Term Loan Claims has occurred, if any Grantor (x) shall be subject to any Insolvency Proceeding and the Term Loan Secured Party shall agree to permit the use of “Cash Collateral” (as such term is defined in Section 363(a) of the Bankruptcy Code) constituting Term Loan Priority Collateral (“Term Loan Cash Collateral”) or (y) seeks to obtain financing, from the Term Loan Secured Parties or any other Person consented to by the Term Loan Secured Party under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar Bankruptcy Law secured by a Lien on such Term Loan Priority Collateral (“Term Loan DIP Financing”), then the ABL Secured Party agrees that it will consent to and not oppose, raise objection to or contest (or join with or support any third party opposing, objecting or contesting) such Term Loan Cash Collateral use or Term Loan DIP Financing

(including a Term Loan DIP Financing which “rolls up” or pays any Term Loan Obligations that existed prior to the commencement of the Insolvency Proceeding other than Excess Term Loan Claims) so long as such Term Loan Cash Collateral use or Term Loan DIP Financing meets the following requirements (the “Term Loan DIP Conditions”): (1) the ABL Secured Parties retain the right to object to any ancillary agreements or arrangements regarding the Term Loan Cash Collateral use or Term Loan DIP Financing that are materially prejudicial to their interests in the ABL Priority Collateral, (2) the ABL Secured Party retains its Lien on the Term Loan Priority Collateral (including proceeds thereof arising after the commencement of such Insolvency Proceeding) to secure the ABL Claims which Lien is junior and subordinate only to Liens securing the Term Loan DIP Financing and any remaining Term Loan Claims other than Excess Term Loan Claims and any Permitted Liens (as defined in the Term Loan Documents), and as to the ABL Priority Collateral only, such Lien of the ABL Secured Party has the same priority as existed prior to the commencement of such Insolvency Proceeding and any Lien on ABL Priority Collateral securing such Term Loan DIP Financing is junior and subordinate to the Lien of the ABL Secured Parties on the ABL Priority Collateral, (3) if the Term Loan Secured Party requests adequate protection Liens on the Term Loan Priority Collateral, the ABL Secured Party receives as adequate protection a replacement Lien on post-petition assets of each Grantor to the same extent granted to the Term Loan Secured Party to secure the Term Loan DIP Financing and any remaining Term Loan Claims which replacement lien shall be subordinate only to the Liens in such post-petition assets securing the Term Loan DIP Financing and any remaining Term Loan Claims other than Liens securing the Excess Term Loan Claims (provided further, that the inability of the ABL Secured Party to receive as adequate protection a Lien on Proceeds of actions under Chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code shall not affect the agreements and waivers set forth in this Section 6.1(b) so long as Liens on Proceeds of such actions are not given as security for and do not secure the Excess Term Loan Claims), (4) the terms of the Term Loan DIP Financing do not expressly require the liquidation of the Term Loan Priority Collateral prior to a date that is five (5) months after the filing date of the petition commencing the Insolvency Proceeding, (5) the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan DIP Financing (excluding the amount of Term Loan Obligations (other than Excess Term Loan Claims) “rolled up” or paid pursuant to the Term Loan DIP Financing) does not exceed the Term Loan DIP Amount, (6) any “carve-out” for the payment of professional fees of the Grantor estate and the United States Trustee’s fees or other similar and customary administrative priority expenses or claims consented to in writing by Term Loan Secured Party to be paid prior to the Payment in Full of Term Loan Claims (other than Excess Term Loan Claims) shall be reasonable and customary in the circumstances of the Insolvency Proceeding, (7) the proposed Term Loan Cash Collateral use or Term Loan DIP Financing does not compel any Grantor to seek confirmation of or approval for any plan of reorganization or other plan of similar effect under any Bankruptcy Laws that is inconsistent with this Agreement, and (8) the Term Loan DIP Financing is otherwise subject to the terms of this Agreement; provided, that the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.1(b) shall not prevent the ABL Secured Party from objecting to any provision in any Term Loan Cash Collateral order or Term Loan DIP Financing documentation, as applicable (including an order of a court approving such Term Loan Cash Collateral use or Term Loan DIP Financing), relating to any provision or the content of a plan of reorganization or other plan of similar effect under any Bankruptcy Law.
(ix)    The ABL Secured Party will subordinate any Liens on the Term Loan Priority Collateral (and in any other assets (other than ABL Priority Collateral) that may serve as collateral for any Term Loan DIP Financing as to which the Term Loan DIP Conditions have been satisfied) to the Liens securing such Term Loan DIP Financing.  If, in connection with any Term Loan Cash Collateral use or Term Loan DIP Financing, any Liens on the Term Loan Priority Collateral held by the Term Loan Secured Party are subject to a surcharge or are subordinated to an administrative priority claim, a professional fee “carve-out,” or fees owed to the United States Trustee, then the Liens on the Term Loan Priority Collateral of the ABL Secured Party shall also be subordinated to such interest or 

33

claim and shall remain subordinated to the Liens on the Term Loan Priority Collateral of the Term Loan Secured Party consistent with this Agreement.  To the extent the Term Loan Secured Party does not request adequate protection Liens on the Term Loan Priority Collateral in connection with a Term Loan DIP Financing, the ABL Secured Party will not request adequate protection Liens on the Term Loan Priority Collateral.
(x)    If such Term Loan Cash Collateral use or Term Loan DIP Financing, as applicable, meets some, but not all, of the applicable Term Loan DIP Conditions, then ABL Secured Party agrees that it will only withhold its consent or raise objections to such Term Loan Cash Collateral use and such Term Loan DIP Financing based upon the Term Loan DIP Condition(s) which are not met and will not withhold its consent or object on any other basis and, if Term Loan DIP Financing is involved and any permitted objection of ABL Secured Party is withdrawn, overruled, or otherwise eliminated, ABL Secured Party will subordinate its Liens in the Term Loan Priority Collateral (and in any other assets (other than ABL Priority Collateral) that may serve as collateral for such Term Loan DIP Financing) to the Liens securing such Term Loan DIP Financing.
(g)    [Reserved.]
(h)    Sale of ABL Priority Collateral. Until the Payment in Full of ABL Claims has occurred, if any Grantor shall be subject to any Insolvency Proceeding and the ABL Secured Party shall, acting in accordance with the ABL Loan Agreement, agree to permit a sale, liquidation or other Disposition of the ABL Priority Collateral free and clear of Liens or other claims, under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, then the Term Loan Secured Party agrees that it will not (i) raise any objection to or contest such sale, liquidation or other Disposition or request adequate protection or any other relief in connection therewith (it being understood that the Term Loan Secured Party shall retain, subject to this Agreement, rights with respect to the proceeds of such Collateral), or (ii) directly or indirectly oppose or impede entry of any order in connection with such sale, liquidation or other disposition, including orders to retain professionals or set bid procedures in connection with such sale, liquidation or disposition if the requisite ABL Secured Parties have consented to (x) such retention of professionals and bid procedures in connection with such sale, liquidation or disposition of such assets and (y) the sale, liquidation or disposition of such assets, in which event the Term Loan Secured Parties will be deemed to have consented to the sale or Disposition of Collateral pursuant to Section 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code and such motion does not impair the rights of any of the Term Loan Secured Parties under Section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code; provided that the proceeds of such sale, liquidation or other Disposition are applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(i)    Sale of Term Loan Priority Collateral.  Until the Payment in Full of Term Loan Claims has occurred, if any Grantor shall be subject to any Insolvency Proceeding and the Term Loan Secured Party shall, acting in accordance with the Term Loan Agreement, agree to permit a sale, liquidation or other Disposition of the Term Loan Priority Collateral free and clear of Liens or other claims, under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, then ABL Secured Party agrees that it will not (i) raise any objection to or contest such sale, liquidation or other Disposition or request adequate protection or any other relief in connection therewith (it being understood that the ABL Secured Party shall retain, but subject to this Agreement, rights with respect to the proceeds of such Collateral), or (ii) directly or indirectly oppose or impede entry of any order in connection with such sale, liquidation or other disposition, including orders to retain professionals or set bid procedures in connection with such sale, liquidation or disposition if the Term Loan Secured Party has consented to (x) such retention of professionals and bid procedures in connection with such sale, liquidation or disposition of such assets and (y) the sale, liquidation or disposition 

34

of such assets, in which event the ABL Secured Parties will be deemed to have consented to the sale or Disposition of Collateral pursuant to Section 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code and such motion does not impair the rights of any of the ABL Secured Parties under Section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code; provided that the proceeds of such sale, liquidation or other Disposition are applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(j)    All Liens granted to the ABL Secured Party or Term Loan Secured Party in any Insolvency Proceeding, whether as adequate protection or otherwise, are intended by the parties hereto to be and shall be deemed to be subject to the priority of the Liens set forth in Section 2 and the other terms and conditions of this Agreement.
6.2    Relief from the Automatic Stay.
(h)    Until the Payment in Full of the ABL Claims has occurred, the Term Loan Secured Party agrees that it shall not (i) seek (or support any other Person seeking) relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency Proceeding in respect of the ABL Priority Collateral, without the prior written consent of the ABL Secured Party or (ii) oppose any request by the ABL Secured Party to seek relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency Proceeding in respect of such ABL Priority Collateral.
(i)    Until the Payment in Full of the Term Loan Claims has occurred, the ABL Secured Party agrees that it shall not (i) seek (or support any other Person seeking) relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency Proceeding in respect of the Term Loan Priority Collateral, without the prior written consent of the Term Loan Secured Party or (ii) oppose any request by the Term Loan Secured Party to seek relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency Proceeding in respect of such Term Loan Priority Collateral.
6.3    Adequate Protection.
(e)    The Term Loan Secured Party agrees that it shall not contest (or support any other Person contesting):
(i)    any request by the ABL Secured Party for adequate protection with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral; or
(ii)    any objection by the ABL Secured Party to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on the ABL Secured Party claiming a lack of adequate protection with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral;
provided that any Lien granted on any additional collateral pursuant to such request or objection shall be subject to this Agreement with its priority based on whether such additional collateral constitutes ABL Priority Collateral or Term Loan Priority Collateral.
(f)    The ABL Secured Party agrees that it shall not contest (or support any other Person contesting):
(i)    any request by any Term Loan Secured Party for adequate protection with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral; or

35

(ii)    any objection by any Term Loan Secured Party to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on any Term Loan Secured Party claiming a lack of adequate protection with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral;
provided that any Lien granted on any additional collateral pursuant to such request or objection shall be subject to this Agreement with its priority based on whether such additional collateral constitutes ABL Priority Collateral or Term Loan Priority Collateral.
(g)    Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions in this Section 6.3, in any Insolvency Proceeding, (i) if the ABL Secured Party is granted adequate protection with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral in the form of additional collateral (even if such collateral is not of a type which would otherwise have constituted ABL Priority Collateral) in connection with any ABL Cash Collateral use or ABL DIP Financing, then the Term Loan Secured Party may seek or request adequate protection with respect to its interests in such Collateral in the form of a Lien on the same additional collateral, which Lien will be subordinated to the Liens securing the ABL Claims and such ABL Cash Collateral use or ABL DIP Financing on the same basis as the other Liens of the Term Loan Secured Party on ABL Priority Collateral, and (ii) if the Term Loan Secured Party is granted adequate protection with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral in the form of additional collateral (even if such collateral is not of a type which would otherwise have constituted Term Loan Priority Collateral) in connection with any Term Loan Cash Collateral use or Term Loan DIP Financing, then the ABL Secured Party may seek or request adequate protection with respect to its interests in such Collateral in the form of a Lien on the same additional collateral, which Lien will be subordinated to the Liens securing the Term Loan Claims and such Term Loan Cash Collateral use or Term Loan DIP Financing on the same basis as the other Liens of the ABL Secured Party on Term Loan Priority Collateral.
(h)    If any one or more Senior Secured Parties are granted adequate protection in the form of a superpriority or other administrative expense claim, then such Senior Secured Parties agree that Junior Secured Parties shall also be entitled to seek, without objection from the Senior Secured Parties, adequate protection in the form of a superpriority or other administrative expense claim (as applicable), which superpriority or other administrative expense claim, if obtained, shall be subordinate to the superpriority or other administrative expense claim of the Senior Secured Parties (such subordination to include an express provision that the Junior Secured Parties, solely in their capacity as holders of such superpriority or administrative expense claims and not as the holder of any other Junior Claims, will not object to a plan of reorganization based upon the failure of such plan of reorganization to pay the Junior Secured Parties’ superpriority or other administrative expense claims in full in accordance with Section 1129(a)(9)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code so long as the plan provides for payment of such claims in cash and non-cash consideration having a value as of the effective date of such plan at least equal to the allowed amount of such superpriority or other administrative expense claims).
(i)    Except as otherwise expressly set forth in Section 6.1 or in connection with the exercise of remedies or Enforcement Actions with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral, nothing herein shall limit the rights of any Term Loan Secured Party from seeking adequate protection with respect to its rights in the Term Loan Priority Collateral in any Insolvency Proceeding (including adequate protection in the form of a cash payment, periodic cash payments or otherwise).  Except as otherwise expressly set forth in Section 6.1 or in connection with the exercise of remedies or Enforcement Actions with respect to the Term Loan Priority Collateral, nothing herein shall limit the rights of any ABL Secured Party from seeking adequate protection with respect to its rights in the ABL Priority Collateral in any Insolvency Proceeding (including adequate protection in the form of a cash payment, periodic cash payments or otherwise).

36

6.4    Voting of Claims; Applicability of Insolvency Proceedings.  Until the Payment in Full of all Senior Claims in respect of any Collateral, the Secured Party of the highest Class shall have the right, but not the obligation, to vote or cause to be voted the claim of any Junior Secured Party in respect of such Collateral in any Insolvency Proceeding if such Junior Secured Party has not voted its claim on or prior to 5 Business Days before the expiration of the time to vote any such claim.  In the event that such Secured Party exercises such rights, no Junior Secured Party shall be entitled to change or withdraw such vote.  This Agreement shall be applicable both before and after the filing of any petition by or against any Grantor under any Bankruptcy Law or any other Insolvency Proceeding and all converted or succeeding cases in respect thereof, and all references herein to any Grantor shall be deemed to apply to the trustee for such Grantor and such Grantor as a debtor-in-possession.  The relative rights of the Senior Secured Parties and the Junior Secured Parties in respect of any Collateral or proceeds thereof shall continue after the filing of such petition on the same basis as prior to the date of such filing, subject to any court order approving the financing of, or use of cash collateral by, any Grantor.  This Agreement shall constitute a “subordination agreement” for purposes of Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and shall be enforceable in any Insolvency Proceeding in accordance with its terms.
6.5    Reorganization Securities.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if, in any Insolvency Proceeding, the Junior Secured Parties receive pursuant to a plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan a distribution of debt obligations (“Junior Lien Reorganization Securities”) in whole or in part on account of their Junior Claims and such debt obligations are secured by Liens on the Collateral that is not the Senior Collateral, and the Senior Secured Parties receive pursuant to such plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan a distribution of debt obligations (“Senior Lien Reorganization Securities”) in whole or in part on account of their Senior Claims that are secured by Liens on such Collateral, then the provisions of this Agreement will survive the distribution of such Junior Lien Reorganization Securities and Senior Lien Reorganization Securities and will apply with like effect to such Junior Lien Reorganization Securities and Senior Lien Reorganization Securities, to such Liens securing such Junior Lien Reorganization Securities and Senior Lien Reorganization Securities and to the distribution of proceeds of such Collateral.
6.6    No Waiver by Senior Secured Parties.  Nothing contained herein shall prohibit or in any way limit any Senior Secured Party from, with respect to the Senior Collateral, objecting in any Insolvency Proceeding (or otherwise) to any action taken by any Junior Secured Party, including the seeking by such Junior Secured Party of adequate protection with respect to such Collateral or the asserting by such Junior Secured Party of any of its rights and remedies under the Junior Documents (or otherwise) with respect to such Collateral.
6.7    Recovery.  If any Secured Party is required in any Insolvency Proceeding, or otherwise, to turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of Blyth or any other Grantor any amount or other distribution or transfer of property or assets paid in respect of any of the Secured Claims (each, a “Recovery”), then such Secured Party shall be entitled to a reinstatement of Secured Claims with respect to all such recovered amounts or other distribution or transfer of property or assets and the Payment in Full of the applicable Secured Claims shall be deemed not to have occurred for all purposes hereunder.  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.

37

6.8    Post-Petition Interest.
(a)    The Term Loan Secured Party agrees that it shall not oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the ABL Secured Party for allowance in any Insolvency Proceeding of ABL Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses to the extent of the value of the Lien securing the ABL Claims on the ABL Priority Collateral, without regard to the existence of the Lien of the Term Loan Secured Party on the ABL Collateral.
(b)    The ABL Secured Party agrees that it shall not oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the Term Loan Secured Party for allowance in any Insolvency Proceeding of Term Loan Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses to the extent of the value of the Lien securing the Term Loan Claims on the Term Loan Priority Collateral, without regard to the existence of the Lien of the ABL Secured Party on the Term Loan Priority Collateral.
Section 7.    Reliance; Waivers; Etc.
7.1    Reliance.  Other than any reliance on the terms of this Agreement, each Senior Secured Party acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance on any Junior Secured Party, and based on documents and information deemed by it appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into the Senior Documents or this Agreement and it will continue to make its own credit decision in taking or not taking any action under the applicable Senior Documents or this Agreement.

(e)    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 Claims or Junior Claims or any guarantee thereof;
(f)    the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding in respect of any Grantor; or
(g)    any other circumstances which otherwise might constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Grantor in respect of the Secured Claims, or of any Junior Secured Party in respect of this Agreement.
7.4    Purchase Right.
(a)    Without prejudice to the enforcement of the ABL Secured Party’s rights and remedies, the ABL Secured Party agrees that following the occurrence of (i) any Acceleration Event with respect to the ABL Obligations, (ii) the ABL Obligations shall remain unpaid 30 days following the Revolver Termination Date (as defined in the ABL Loan Agreement), (iii) any Enforcement Action by the ABL Secured Party with respect to any material portion of the ABL Priority Collateral, or (iv) any Insolvency Proceeding, (each such event, a “Purchase Option Event”), then the Term Loan Lender shall have the right to elect to purchase all but not less than all of the outstanding ABL Claims, at par, without regard to and specifically excluding any prepayment penalty or premium and without warranty, representation or recourse, for the Purchase Price (defined below).  The Term Loan Secured Party shall irrevocably exercise each such purchase right by delivery of written notice of its intent to purchase the ABL Claims to the ABL Secured Party at any time following the Purchase Option Event; provided, unless the ABL Secured Party otherwise consents, such written notice must be received by the ABL Secured Party no later than the earlier to occur of thirty (30) days after the ABL Secured Party delivers to the Term Loan Secured Party written notice of the occurrence of any Purchase Option Event described in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) above.  The parties shall close such purchase and sale within 10 Business Days (or such shorter time as reasonably specified by the Term Loan Secured Party in such notice) after such delivery of such notice.
(b)    On the date of such purchase and sale (the “Purchase Date”), the Term Loan Lender shall (i) pay to ABL Secured Party as the purchase price therefor, the full amount of all the ABL Claims (other than ABL Claims cash collateralized in accordance with clause (b)(ii) below) then outstanding and unpaid, (ii) furnish cash collateral to ABL Secured Party in such amounts as ABL Secured Party determines is reasonably necessary to secure ABL Secured Party in connection with (x) any issued and outstanding Letters of Credit (but not in any event in an amount greater than that 105% of the aggregate undrawn face amount of such Letters of Credit), (y) any mark-to-market or then terminated net obligations relating to Cash Management Obligations secured by the ABL Priority Collateral (as reasonably determined in accordance with the ABL Loan Agreement) (the “Outstanding Cash Management Obligations”) and (z) any indemnification obligations of the Grantors then owing and payable to the ABL Secured Parties (which shall be identified in reasonable detail in writing), and (iii) agree to reimburse ABL Secured Party for all documented expenses to the extent earned or due and payable in accordance with the ABL Loan Documents (including the reimbursement of extraordinary expenses, financial examination expenses, and appraisal fees).  Such purchase price, cash collateral and reimbursement amount (collectively, the “Purchase Price”) shall be 

39

remitted by wire transfer in federal funds to such bank account of ABL Secured Party as it may designate in writing to the Term Loan Secured Party for such purpose.  Interest shall be calculated to but exclude the Business Day on which such purchase and sale shall occur if the amounts so paid by the Term Loan Lender to the bank account designated by ABL Secured Party are received in such bank account prior to 4:00 p.m., New York City time, and interest shall be calculated to and include such Business Day if the amounts so paid by the Term Loan Lender to the bank account designated by ABL Secured Party are received in such bank account later than 4:00 p.m., New York City time.

The Term Loan Lender shall also indemnify and hold harmless the ABL Secured Parties against all losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses, including without limitation reasonable and documented out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and costs, relating to or arising out of any claim by any third party in respect of the ABL Claims as a direct and exclusive result of the acts of the Term Loan Lender occurring after the consummation of the purchase of the ABL Claims.
(d)    In the event that the Term Loan Lender exercises and consummates the purchase option set forth in this Section 7.4, (i) ABL Secured Party and any other agent under the ABL Loan Documents shall have the right, but not the obligation, to immediately resign under the ABL Loan Documents, and (ii) the Term Loan Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to require ABL Secured Party and such other agent to immediately resign under the ABL Loan Documents.
(e)    With respect to any cash collateral held under Section 7.4(b)(ii)(x) and (y) above, after giving effect to any payment made and applied to amounts coming due with respect to any Letters of Credit (or termination thereof without a drawing thereon) or any final payment of amounts constituting any Outstanding Bank Product Obligation, the amount of any cash collateral then on deposit with the ABL Secured Party with respect to such obligations which exceeds the sum of (y) one hundred five percent (105%) of the aggregate undrawn amount of all then remaining outstanding Letters of Credit and (z) the aggregate amount of all then remaining Cash Management Obligations (determined at the original termination or mark-to-market amount thereof on the purchase date of the ABL Claims), shall promptly be returned to the Term Loan Secured Party.

The Junior Secured Parties in respect of any Collateral hereby waive any rights of subrogation they may acquire as a result of any payment or distribution or transfer of property or assets hereunder until all of the Senior Claims in respect of such Collateral shall have been Paid in Full.  Upon Payment in Full of such Senior Claims, the Junior Secured Parties shall be subrogated to the rights of the Senior Secured Parties to receive payments, distributions or other transfers applicable to such Senior Claims.  Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the value of any payments, distributions or other transfers in cash, property or other assets received by any Junior Secured Party that are paid over to such Secured Party of the highest Class pursuant to this Agreement shall not reduce the amounts which such Grantor shall be obligated to pay such Junior Secured Party.

Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, any notice hereunder shall be in writing and may be personally served, telexed, sent by telefacsimile or electronically (e.g., by email) or United States mail or courier service and shall be deemed to have been given when delivered in person or by courier service and signed for against receipt thereof, upon receipt of telefacsimile or telex or electronic communication, or three Business Days after depositing it in the United States mail with postage prepaid and properly addressed.  For the purposes hereof, the addresses of the parties hereto shall be as set forth below each party’s name on the signature pages hereto, or, as to each party, at such other address as may be designated by such party in a written notice to all of the other parties.
8.8    Further Assurances.  Each Secured Party and each Grantor agrees that it shall take such further action and shall execute and deliver such additional documents and instruments (in recordable 

42

form, if reasonably requested) as any other Secured Party may reasonably request to effectuate the terms of and the lien priorities contemplated by this Agreement.  Each Secured Party agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to provide reasonable details as to deposit and securities accounts that constitute ABL Priority Collateral or Term Loan Priority Collateral upon the written request of any other Secured Party.
8.9    Reserved
8.10    Binding on Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement shall be binding upon the ABL Secured Party and the Term Loan Secured Party and, in each case, their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that as a condition precedent to the effectiveness of any contractual assignment by any Secured Party of this Agreement and/or any Loan Documents, as applicable (a “Loan Assignment”), the person or entity which is the assignee of a Loan Assignment (an “Assignee”) shall enter into and deliver to the non-assigning party a joinder to this Agreement or other agreement reasonably acceptable to the non-assigning party the effect of which is to confirm that such Assignee shall be bound by all of the provisions of this Agreement as if such Assignee were such Secured Party, as applicable, hereunder.
8.11    Specific Performance.  The Secured Parties may demand specific performance of this Agreement.  Each of the Grantors hereby irrevocably waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any defense based on the adequacy of a remedy at law and any other defense (other than the defense of payment in full in cash in respect thereof) which might be asserted to bar the remedy of specific performance in any action which may be brought by any 
 
Secured Party.
8.12    Headings.  Section headings in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose or be given any substantive effect.
8.13    Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement or any document or instrument delivered in connection herewith by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement or such other document or instrument, as applicable.
8.14    Authorization.  By its signature, each Person executing this Agreement on behalf of a party hereto represents and warrants to the other parties hereto that it is duly authorized to execute this Agreement.
8.15    No Third Party Beneficiaries.  Subject to Section 8.3, no other Person shall have or be entitled to assert rights or benefits hereunder.  Nothing in this Agreement shall impair as between each of the Borrowers and each other Grantor (if any) and the Senior Secured Parties, or as between each of the Borrowers and each other Grantor (if any) and the Junior Secured Parties, the obligations of each of the Borrowers and each other Grantor (if any) to pay principal, interest, fees and other amounts as provided in the Senior Documents and the Junior Documents, respectively.
8.16    Lien Subordination.  Subject to the provisions of Section 4.2 hereof, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to subordinate the right of Junior Secured Parties to receive payment to the right of Senior Secured Parties to receive payment, it being the intent of the parties hereto that, to the extent 

43

provided in this Agreement, the Lien of the Junior Secured Parties with respect to Collateral shall be junior to the Lien of Senior Secured Parties with respect to such Collateral as a result of the Lien priorities provided for in this Agreement (so that all proceeds of Collateral shall, to the extent provided in this Agreement, be paid first to Senior Secured Parties for application to the Senior Claims before the Junior Secured Parties shall receive any proceeds of such Collateral for application to the Junior Claims).
