Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned in the Intercreditor Agreement.


This Fifth Joinder and Supplement to the Intercreditor Agreement (this “Agreement”), dated as of January 14, 2013 (the “Effective Date”), by and among (i) Wilmington Trust, National Association (as successor by merger to Wilmington Trust FSB), as Senior-Priority Agent for the holders of the 1.5 Notes (the “1.5 Notes Trustee”), (ii) Wilmington Trust, National Association, as Senior-Priority Agent for the First Lien Notes, (iii) the Intercreditor Agent, (iv) Wilmington Trust Company, as Trustee and Collateral Agent and as Second-Priority Agent, (v) MSCH, (vi) the Company and (vii) each Subsidiary of the Company listed on Schedule I hereto, has been entered into to (A) with respect to the Liens securing certain Obligations as set forth below, to confirm and evidence that such Liens shall, for purposes of the Intercreditor Agreement, be equal and ratable with all Liens on the Common Collateral securing any other Senior Lender Claims and (B) for certain related purposes.

The parties to this Agreement hereby agree as follows:

A. The 1.5 Notes Trustee hereby acknowledges and agrees that it shall act as Senior-Priority Agent under the Intercreditor Agreement on behalf of the holders of the New Notes.

B. The New Indenture has been designated by the Company and the Issuers as being included in the definition of “Credit Agreement” set forth in each of the Second Lien Indentures, which designation shall be irrevocable until such time as all Liens securing the New Notes have been released pursuant to Section 11.03 of the New Indenture (and any purported revocation of such designation prior to such time shall be ineffective for all purposes of the Intercreditor Agreement). The New Indenture, the New Notes, the Security Documents (as defined in the New Indenture), and any related document or instrument executed and delivered pursuant to any of the foregoing shall constitute “Senior Credit Documents” as defined in each of the Second Lien Indentures.

C. The Liens securing the Obligations under the New Notes, the New Indenture and any other document or agreement entered into pursuant thereto granted pursuant to the Security Documents have been designated by the Company and the Issuers as having been incurred pursuant to clause (8) of the definition of “Permitted Liens” set forth in each of the Second Lien Indentures, which designation shall be irrevocable until such time as all Liens securing the New Notes have been released pursuant to Section 11.03 of the New Indenture (and any purported revocation of such designation prior to such time shall be ineffective for all purposes of the Intercreditor Agreement). The Obligations under the New Indenture and any other document or agreement entered into pursuant thereto constitute First-Lien Indebtedness (which First-Lien Indebtedness, for the avoidance of doubt, also constitutes Future First-Lien Indebtedness) and Senior Lender Claims.

 

2


D. The Liens on the Common Collateral securing such Senior Lender Claims shall have priority over and be senior in all respects to all Liens on the Common Collateral securing any Second-Priority Claims on the terms set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement and, subject to the terms of any other applicable intercreditor agreement (including that certain Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of January 29, 2010 (as the same may be further amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “1.5 Lien Intercreditor Agreement”)), then in effect, shall be equal and ratable with all Liens on the Common Collateral securing any other Senior Lender Claims.

E. So long as the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has not occurred and subject to the terms of any other applicable intercreditor agreement (including the 1.5 Lien Intercreditor Agreement) then in effect, the Common Collateral or proceeds thereof received in connection with the sale or other disposition of, or collection on, the Common Collateral upon the exercise of remedies shall be applied by the Intercreditor Agent ratably to the Senior Lender Claims and, with respect to each class of Senior Lender Claims, in such order as is specified in the relevant Senior Lender Documents until the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has occurred.

F. Except as expressly provided herein, in the Intercreditor Agreement or in any Senior Lender Documents, the 1.5 Notes Trustee is acting in the capacity of Senior-Priority Agent solely with respect to the Senior Lender Claims owed to the 1.5 Notes Trustee and the holders of the New Notes issued pursuant to the New Indenture. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of Article VII of the New Indenture applicable to the 1.5 Notes Trustee thereunder shall also apply to the 1.5 Notes Trustee acting under or in connection with the Intercreditor Agreement.

G. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York.

H. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement.
