(1) will not exercise or seek to exercise any rights or remedies with respect to any ABL Collateral (including the exercise of any right of setoff or any right under any lockbox agreement or any control agreement with respect to Deposit Accounts or Securities Accounts) or institute any action or proceeding with respect to such rights or remedies (including any action of foreclosure); provided, however, that the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent or any Person authorized by it may exercise any or all such rights or remedies after the passage of a period of at least 180 days has elapsed since the later of:  (A) the date on which the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent declared the existence of a Fixed Asset Default and demanded the repayment of all the principal amount of Fixed Asset Obligations; and (B) the date on which the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent received notice from the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent of such declaration of a Fixed Asset Default (the “Fixed Asset Standstill Period”); provided, further, however, that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent or any Fixed Asset Claimholder exercise any rights or remedies with respect to the ABL Collateral if, notwithstanding the expiration of the Fixed Asset Standstill Period, the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or Revolving Credit Claimholders shall have commenced and be diligently pursuing the exercise of their rights or remedies with respect to all or any material portion of such Collateral (prompt notice of such exercise to be given to the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent) or shall be stayed under applicable law from exercising such rights and remedies;

(3) file any necessary or appropriate responsive or defensive pleadings in opposition to any motion, claim, adversary proceeding or other pleading made by any Person objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of the claims or Liens of the Fixed Asset Claimholders,

(d) Subject to Sections 3.1(a) and (c) and Section 6.3(c)(1):
 
(1) the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Fixed Asset Claimholders, agrees that it will not, except as not prohibited herein, take any action that would hinder any exercise of remedies under the Revolving Credit Documents or that is otherwise prohibited hereunder, including any sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of the ABL Collateral, whether by foreclosure or otherwise;
 
(2) the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Fixed Asset Claimholders, hereby waives any and all rights it or the Fixed Asset Claimholders may have as a junior lien creditor with respect to the ABL Collateral or otherwise to object to the manner in which the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or the Revolving Credit Claimholders seek to enforce or collect the Revolving Credit Obligations or the Liens on the ABL Collateral securing the Revolving Credit Obligations granted in any of the Revolving Credit Documents or undertaken in accordance with this Agreement, regardless of whether any action or failure to act by or on behalf of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or Revolving Credit Claimholders is adverse to the interest of the Fixed Asset Claimholders; and
 
(3) the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent hereby acknowledges and agrees that no covenant, agreement or restriction contained in any of the Fixed Asset Collateral Documents or any other Fixed Asset Document (other than this Agreement) shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights and remedies of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or the Revolving Credit Claimholders with respect to the ABL Collateral as set forth in this Agreement and the Revolving Credit Documents.

(e) Except as otherwise specifically set forth in this Agreement, the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent and the Fixed Asset Claimholders may exercise rights and remedies as unsecured creditors against any Grantor and may exercise rights and remedies with respect to the Fixed Asset Priority Collateral, in each case, in accordance with the terms of the applicable Fixed Asset Documents and applicable law; provided, however, that in the event that any Fixed Asset Claimholder becomes a judgment Lien creditor in respect of ABL Collateral as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor with respect to the Fixed Asset Obligations, such judgment Lien shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement for all purposes (including in relation to the Revolving Credit Obligations) as the other Liens securing the Fixed Asset Obligations are subject to this Agreement.
 
(f) Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent or any Fixed Asset Claimholders of payments of interest, principal and other amounts owed in respect of the applicable Fixed Asset Obligations so long as such receipt is not the direct or indirect result of the exercise by the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent or any Fixed Asset Claimholders of rights or remedies as a secured creditor (including set-off) or enforcement of any Lien held by any of them, in each case in contravention of this Agreement.  Nothing in this Agreement impairs or otherwise adversely affects any rights or remedies the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or the Revolving Credit Claimholders may have against the Grantors under the Revolving Credit Documents, other than with respect to the Fixed Asset Priority Collateral solely to the extent expressly provided herein.

exercise rights and remedies as unsecured creditors against any Grantor and may exercise rights and remedies with respect to the ABL Collateral, in each case, in accordance with the terms of the Revolving Credit Documents and applicable law; provided, however, that in the event that any Revolving Credit Claimholder becomes a judgment Lien creditor in respect of Fixed Asset Priority Collateral as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor with respect to the Revolving Credit Obligations, such judgment Lien shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement for all purposes (including in relation to the Fixed Asset Obligations) as the other Liens securing the Revolving Credit Obligations are subject to this Agreement.
 
(f) Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or any Revolving Credit Claimholders of payments of interest, principal and other amounts owed in respect of the Revolving Credit Obligations so long as such receipt is not the direct or indirect result of the exercise by the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or any Revolving Credit Claimholders of rights or remedies as a secured creditor (including set-off) or enforcement of any Lien held by any of them, in each case in contravention of this Agreement.  Nothing in this Agreement impairs or otherwise adversely affects any rights or remedies the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent or the Fixed Asset Claimholders may have against the Grantors under the Fixed Asset Documents, other than with respect to the ABL Collateral solely to the extent expressly provided herein.
 
3.3. Exercise of Remedies – Collateral Access Rights.
 
(a) The Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent agree not to commence any Collateral Enforcement Action until an Enforcement Notice has been given to the other Collateral Agents.  Subject to the provisions of Sections 3.1 and 3.2 above, any Collateral Agent may join in any judicial proceedings commenced by any other Collateral Agent to enforce Liens on the Collateral, provided that no Collateral Agent, nor the Revolving Credit Claimholders or the Fixed Asset Claimholders, as the case may be, shall interfere with the Collateral Enforcement Actions of the other with respect to Collateral in which such party has the priority Lien in accordance herewith.
 
(b) If the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent, or any agent or representative of the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent, or any receiver, shall obtain possession or physical control of any of the Mortgaged Premises, the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent shall promptly notify the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent of that fact (such notice, a “Notice of Occupancy”) and the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent shall, within ten (10) Business Days thereafter, notify the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent as to whether the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent desires to exercise access rights under this Agreement (such notice, an “Access Acceptance Notice”), at which time the parties shall confer in good faith to coordinate with respect to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent’s exercise of such access rights; provided, that it is understood and agreed that the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent shall obtain possession or physical control of the Mortgaged Premises in the manner provided in the applicable Fixed Asset Collateral Documents and in the manner provided herein.  Access rights may apply to differing parcels of Mortgaged Premises at differing times, in which case, a differing Access Period may apply to each such property.  In the event that the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent elects to exercise its access rights as provided in this Agreement, the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent agrees, for itself and on behalf of the Fixed Asset Claimholders, that in the event that any Fixed Asset Claimholder exercises its rights to sell or otherwise dispose of any Mortgaged Premises, whether before or after the delivery of a Notice of Occupancy to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent shall (i) provide access rights to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent for the duration of the Access Period in accordance with this Agreement and (ii) if such a sale or other disposition occurs prior to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent delivering an Access Acceptance Notice during the time period provided therefor, or if applicable, the expiration of the applicable Access Period, shall request that the purchaser or other transferee of such Mortgaged Premises agree to provide the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent the

(c) Upon delivery of notice to the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent as provided in Section 3.3(b), the Access Period shall commence for the subject parcel of Mortgaged Premises.  During the Access Period, the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and its agents, representatives and designees shall have a non-exclusive right to have access to, and a rent free right to use, the Fixed Asset Collateral for the purpose of arranging for and effecting the sale or disposition of ABL Collateral, including the production, completion, packaging and other preparation of such ABL Collateral for sale or disposition.  During any such Access Period, the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and its agents, representatives and designees (and Persons employed on their respective behalves), may continue to operate, service, maintain, process and sell the ABL Collateral, as well as to engage in bulk sales of ABL Collateral.  The Revolving Credit Collateral Agent shall take proper care of any Fixed Asset Priority Collateral that is used by the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent during the Access Period and repair and replace any damage (ordinary wear-and-tear excepted) caused by the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or its agents, representatives or designees and the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent shall comply with all applicable laws in connection with its use or occupancy of the Fixed Asset Priority Collateral.  The Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and the Revolving Credit Claimholders shall (to the extent that there are sufficient available proceeds of ABL Collateral for the purposes of paying such indemnity) indemnify and hold harmless the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent and the Fixed Asset Claimholders for any injury or damage to Persons or property caused by the acts or omissions of Persons under its control.  The Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent shall cooperate and use reasonable efforts to ensure that their activities during the Access Period as described above do not interfere materially with the activities of the other as described above, including the right of the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent to show the Fixed Asset Priority Collateral to prospective purchasers and to ready the Fixed Asset Priority Collateral for sale.
 
(d) If any order or injunction is issued or stay is granted which prohibits the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent from exercising any of its rights hereunder, then at the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent’s option, the Access Period granted to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent under this Section 3.3 shall be stayed during the period of such prohibition and shall continue thereafter for the number of days remaining as required under this Section 3.3.  If the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent shall foreclose or otherwise sell any of the Fixed Asset Priority Collateral, the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent will notify the buyer thereof of the existence of this Agreement and that the buyer is acquiring the Fixed Asset Priority Collateral subject to the terms of this Agreement.
 
3.4. Exercise of Remedies – Intellectual Property Rights/Access to Information.  The Fixed Asset Collateral Agent and each Grantor hereby grants (to the full extent of their respective rights and interests) the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and its agents, representatives and designees (a) a royalty free, rent free non-exclusive license and lease to use all of the Fixed Asset Priority Collateral constituting Intellectual Property, to complete the sale of inventory and (b) a royalty free non-exclusive license (which will be binding on any successor or assignee of the Intellectual Property) to use any and all Intellectual Property, in each case, at any time in connection with its Collateral Enforcement Action; provided, however, the royalty free, rent free non-exclusive license and lease granted in clause (a) shall immediately expire upon the sale, lease, transfer or other disposition of all such inventory.
 
3.5. Exercise of Remedies – Set Off and Tracing of and Priorities in Proceeds.

or any Revolving Credit Claimholder exercises its rights of setoff against any Grantors’ Deposit Accounts or Securities Accounts that contain identifiable Proceeds of Fixed Asset Priority Collateral, a percentage of the amount of such setoff equal to the percentage that such Proceeds bear to the total amount on deposit in or credited to the balance of such Deposit Accounts or Securities Accounts shall be deemed to constitute Fixed Asset Priority Collateral, which amount shall be held and distributed pursuant to Section 4.3; provided, however that the foregoing shall not apply to any setoff by the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent against any ABL Collateral to the extent applied to the payment of Revolving Credit Obligations.
 
(b) The Fixed Asset Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Fixed Asset Claimholders, also agrees that prior to an issuance of an Enforcement Notice, all funds deposited in an account subject to a Deposit Account Control Agreement or a Dominion Account (in each case as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement) that constitute ABL Collateral and then applied to the Revolving Credit Obligations shall be treated as ABL Collateral and, unless the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent has actual knowledge to the contrary, any claim that payments made to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent through the Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts that are subject to such Deposit Account Control Agreements or Dominion Accounts, respectively, are Proceeds of or otherwise constitute Fixed Asset Priority Collateral are waived by the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent and the Fixed Asset Claimholders.
 
(c) The Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Revolving Credit Claimholders, and the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Fixed Asset Claimholders, further agree that prior to an issuance of an Enforcement Notice, any Proceeds of Collateral, whether or not deposited in an account subject to a deposit account control agreement or a securities account control agreement, shall not (as between the Collateral Agents, the Revolving Credit Claimholders and the Fixed Asset Claimholders) be treated as Proceeds of Collateral for purposes of determining the relative priorities in the Collateral.

(b) So long as the Discharge of Fixed Asset Obligations has not occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against any Grantor, all Fixed Asset Priority Collateral or Proceeds thereof received in connection with the sale or other disposition of, or collection on, such Collateral upon the exercise of remedies by the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent or any Fixed Asset Claimholder, shall be applied by the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent to the Fixed Asset Obligations in such order as specified in the relevant Fixed Asset Documents.  Upon the Discharge of Fixed Asset Obligations, the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent shall deliver to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent any Collateral and Proceeds of Collateral held by it as a result of the exercise of remedies in the
 

 
-22-

 


same form as received, with any necessary endorsements or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct to be applied by the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent to the Revolving Credit Obligations in such order as specified in the relevant Revolving Credit Documents.
 
4.2. Payments Over in Violation of Agreement.  So long as neither the Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations nor the Discharge of Fixed Asset Obligations has occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against any Grantor, any Collateral or Proceeds thereof (including assets or Proceeds subject to Liens referred to in the final sentence of Section 2.3) received by any Collateral Agent or any Fixed Asset Claimholders or Revolving Credit Claimholders in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy (including set-off) relating to the Collateral in contravention of this Agreement shall be segregated and held in trust and forthwith paid over to the appropriate Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Fixed Asset Claimholders or the Revolving Credit Claimholders, as the case may be, in the same form as received, with any necessary endorsements or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.  Each Collateral Agent is hereby authorized by the other Collateral Agent to make any such endorsements as agent for the other Collateral Agent or any Fixed Asset Claimholders or Revolving Credit Claimholders, as the case may be.  This authorization is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable until the Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations and Discharge of Fixed Asset Obligations.
 
4.3. Application of Payments.  Subject to the other terms of this Agreement, all payments received by (a) the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or the Revolving Credit Claimholders may be applied, reversed and reapplied, in whole or in part, to the Revolving Credit Obligations to the extent provided for in the Revolving Credit Documents and (b) the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent or the Fixed Asset Claimholders may be applied, reversed and reapplied, in whole or in part, to the Fixed Asset Obligations.

(b) To the extent any payment with respect to any Fixed Asset Obligation (whether by or on behalf of any Grantor, as Proceeds of security, enforcement of any right of setoff or otherwise) is declared to be and is avoided as a fraudulent conveyance or a preference in any respect, set aside or required to be paid to a debtor in possession, any Revolving Credit Claimholders, receiver or similar Person, whether in connection with any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise, then the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall, for the purposes of this Agreement and the rights and obligations of the Fixed Asset Claimholders and the Revolving Credit Claimholders, be deemed to be reinstated and outstanding as if such payment had not occurred.  To the extent that any

interest, fees, expenses or other charges (including, without limitation, Post-Petition Interest) to be paid pursuant to the Fixed Asset Documents are disallowed by order of any court, including, without limitation, by order of a Bankruptcy Court in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, such interest, fees, expenses and charges (including, without limitation, Post-Petition Interest) shall, as between the Fixed Asset Claimholders and the Revolving Credit Claimholders, be deemed to continue to accrue and be added to the amount to be calculated as the “Fixed Asset Obligations.”

5.2. Insurance.
 
(a) Unless and until the Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations has occurred, subject to the terms of, and the rights of the Grantors under, the Revolving Credit Documents, the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Fixed Asset Claimholders agrees, that (i) in accordance with the terms of the applicable Credit Documents, the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent shall have the sole and exclusive right to adjust settlement for any insurance policy covering the ABL Collateral in the event of any loss thereunder and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding (or any deed in lieu of condemnation) affecting such Collateral; (ii) in accordance with the terms of the applicable Credit Documents, all Proceeds of any such policy and any such award (or any payments with respect to a deed in lieu of condemnation) if in respect of such Collateral and to the extent required by the Revolving Credit Documents shall be paid to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Revolving Credit Claimholders pursuant to the terms of the Revolving Credit Documents (including, without limitation, for purposes of cash collateralization of letters of credit) and thereafter, to the extent no Revolving Credit Obligations are outstanding, and subject to the rights of the Grantors under the Fixed Asset Documents, to the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Fixed Asset Claimholders to the extent required under the Fixed Asset Collateral Documents and then, to the extent no Fixed Asset Obligations are outstanding, to the owner of the subject property, such other Person as may be entitled thereto or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct, and (iii) if the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent or any Fixed Asset Claimholders shall, at any time, receive any Proceeds of any such insurance policy or any such award or payment in contravention of this Agreement, it shall segregate and hold in trust and forthwith pay such Proceeds over to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms of Section 4.2.
 
(b) Unless and until the Discharge of Fixed Asset Obligations has occurred, subject to the terms of, and the rights of the Grantors under, the Fixed Asset Documents, the Revolving Credit
 

 
-25-

 


Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Revolving Credit Claimholders, agrees that (i) in accordance with the terms of the applicable Credit Documents, the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Fixed Asset Claimholders shall have the sole and exclusive right to adjust settlement for any insurance policy covering the Fixed Asset Priority Collateral in the event of any loss thereunder and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding (or any deed in lieu of condemnation) affecting such Collateral; (ii) in accordance with the terms of the applicable Credit Documents, all Proceeds of any such policy and any such award (or any payments with respect to a deed in lieu of condemnation) if in respect of such Collateral and to the extent required by the Fixed Asset Documents shall be paid to the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Fixed Asset Claimholders pursuant to the terms of the Fixed Asset Documents and thereafter, to the extent no Fixed Asset Obligations are outstanding, and subject to the rights of the Grantors under the Revolving Credit Documents, to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Revolving Credit Claimholders to the extent required under the Revolving Credit Collateral Documents and then, to the extent no Revolving Credit Obligations are outstanding, to the owner of the subject property, such other Person as may be entitled thereto or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct, and (iii) in accordance with the terms of the applicable Credit Documents, if the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or any Revolving Credit Claimholders shall, at any time, receive any Proceeds of any such insurance policy or any such award or payment in contravention of this Agreement, it shall segregate and hold in trust and forthwith pay such Proceeds over to the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms of Section 4.2.
 
(c) To effectuate the foregoing, the Collateral Agents shall each receive separate lender’s loss payable endorsements naming themselves as loss payee and additional insured, as their interests may appear, with respect to policies which insure Collateral hereunder.  To the extent any Proceeds are received for business interruption or for any liability or indemnification and those Proceeds are not compensation for a casualty loss with respect to the Fixed Asset Priority Collateral, such Proceeds shall first be applied to repay the Revolving Credit Obligations (to the extent required pursuant to the Revolving Credit Agreement) and then be applied, to the extent required by the Fixed Asset Documents, to the Fixed Asset Obligations.
 
5.3. Amendments to Revolving Credit Documents and Fixed Asset Documents; Refinancing.
 
(a) The Fixed Asset Documents may be amended, amended and restated, replaced, supplemented or otherwise modified in accordance with their terms, and the Indenture and each Additional Pari Passu Fixed Asset Agreement may be Refinanced, in each case, without notice to, or the consent of, the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or the Revolving Credit Claimholders, all without affecting the lien priorities or other provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that any such Refinancing shall comply with Section 5.5 and shall not contravene any provision of this Agreement.
 
(b) The Revolving Credit Documents may be amended, amended and restated, replaced, supplemented or otherwise modified in accordance with their terms, and the Revolving Credit Agreement may be Refinanced, in each case, without notice to, or the consent of, the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent or the Fixed Asset Claimholders, all without affecting the lien priorities or other provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that any such Refinancing shall comply with Section 5.5 and shall not contravene any provision of this Agreement.
 
(c) On or after any Refinancing, and the receipt of notice thereof, which notice shall include the identity of an new or replacement Collateral Agent or other agent serving the same or similar function, each existing Collateral Agent shall promptly enter into such documents and agreements (including amendments or supplements to this Agreement) as the Borrower or such new or replacement
 

 
-26-

 


Collateral Agent may reasonably request in order to provide to such new or replacement Collateral Agent the rights, remedies and powers and authorities contemplated hereby, in each case consistent in all respects with the terms of this Agreement.
 
(d) The Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent shall each use good faith efforts to notify the other parties hereto of any written amendment or modification to any Revolving Credit Loan Document or any Fixed Asset Document, as applicable, but the failure to do so shall not create a cause of action against or give rise to any liability for the party failing to give such notice or create any claim or right on behalf of any third party.
 
5.4. Bailees for Perfection.
 
(a) Each Collateral Agent agrees to hold that part of the Collateral that is in its possession or control (or in the possession or control of its agents or bailees) to the extent that possession or control thereof is taken to perfect a Lien thereon under the UCC or the PPSA (such Collateral being the “Pledged Collateral”) as collateral agent for the Revolving Credit Claimholders or the Fixed Asset Claimholders, as the case may be, and as bailee for the other Collateral Agents (such bailment being intended, among other things, to satisfy the requirements of Sections 8-106(d)(3), 8-301(a)(2) and 9-313(c) of the UCC) and any assignee solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted under the Revolving Credit Documents and the Fixed Asset Documents, respectively, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.4.
 
(b) No Collateral Agent shall have any obligation whatsoever to the other Collateral Agents, to any Revolving Credit Claimholder, or to any Fixed Asset Claimholder to ensure that the Pledged Collateral is genuine or owned by any of the Grantors or to preserve rights or benefits of any Person except as expressly set forth in this Section 5.4.  The duties or responsibilities of the respective Collateral Agents under this Section 5.4 shall be limited solely to holding the Pledged Collateral as bailee in accordance with this Section 5.4 and delivering the Pledged Collateral upon a Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations or Discharge of Fixed Asset Obligations, as the case may be, as provided in paragraph (d) below.
 
(c) No Collateral Agent acting pursuant to this Section 5.4 shall have by reason of the Revolving Credit Documents, the Fixed Asset Documents, this Agreement or any other document a fiduciary relationship in respect of the other Collateral Agent, or any Revolving Credit Claimholders or any Fixed Asset Claimholders.
 
(d) Upon the Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations or the Discharge of Fixed Asset Obligations, as the case may be, the Collateral Agent under the debt facility or indenture which has been discharged shall deliver the remaining Pledged Collateral (if any) together with any necessary endorsements and without recourse or warranty, first, to the other Collateral Agent (for the avoidance of doubt, in the case of the Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations, to the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent) to the extent the other Obligations (other than Contingent Obligations) remain outstanding, and second, to the applicable Grantor to the extent no Revolving Credit Obligations or Fixed Asset Obligations, as the case may be, remain outstanding (in each case, so as to allow such Person to obtain possession or control of such Pledged Collateral).  Each Collateral Agent further agrees, to the extent that any other Obligations (other than applicable Contingent Obligations) remain outstanding, to take all other commercially reasonable action as shall be reasonably requested by any other Collateral Agent, at the sole cost and expense of the Credit Parties, to permit such other Collateral Agent to obtain, for the benefit of the Revolving Credit Claimholders or Fixed Asset Claimholders, as applicable, a first-priority interest in the Collateral or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.
 

 
-27-

 


(e) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, (i) so long as the Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations has not occurred, the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent shall be entitled to deal with the Pledged Collateral or Collateral within its “control” in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and other Revolving Credit Documents, but only to the extent that such Collateral constitutes ABL Collateral, as if the Liens of the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent and Fixed Asset Claimholders did not exist and (ii) so long as the Discharge of Fixed Asset Obligations has not occurred, the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent shall be entitled to deal with the Pledged Collateral or Collateral within its “control” in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and other Fixed Asset Documents, but only to the extent that such Collateral constitutes Fixed Asset Priority Collateral, as if the Liens of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and Revolving Credit Claimholders did not exist.  In furtherance of the foregoing, promptly following the Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations, unless a New Debt Notice in respect of new Revolving Credit Documents shall have been delivered as provided in Section 5.5 below, the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent hereby agrees to deliver, at the cost and expense of the Credit Parties, to each bank and securities intermediary, if any, that is counterparty to a deposit account control agreement or securities account control agreement, as applicable, written notice as contemplated in such deposit account control agreement or securities account control agreement, as applicable, directing such bank or securities intermediary, as applicable, to comply with the instructions of the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent, unless the Discharge of Fixed Asset Obligations has occurred (as certified to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent by the Borrower), in which case, such deposit account control agreement or securities account control agreement, as the case may be, shall be terminated.
 
(f) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary:
 
(1) each of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Revolving Credit Claimholders, agrees that any requirement under any Revolving Credit Collateral Document that any Grantor deliver any Collateral that constitutes Fixed Asset Priority Collateral to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, or that requires any Grantor to vest the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent with possession or “control” (as defined in the UCC or in the manner provided for in the STA) of any Collateral that constitutes Fixed Asset Priority Collateral, in each case, shall be deemed satisfied to the extent that, prior to the Discharge of Fixed Asset Obligations (other than Contingent Obligations), such Collateral is delivered to the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent, or the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent shall have been vested with such possession or (unless, pursuant to the UCC or the STA, as applicable, control may be given concurrently to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent) “control,” in each case, subject to the provisions of this Section 5.4; and
 
(2) the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Fixed Asset Claimholders, agrees that any requirement under any Fixed Asset Collateral Document that any Grantor deliver any Collateral that constitutes ABL Collateral to the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent, or that requires any Grantor to vest the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent with possession or “control” (as defined in the UCC or in the manner provided for in the STA) of any Collateral that constitutes ABL Collateral, in each case, shall be deemed satisfied to the extent that, prior to the Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations (other than Contingent Obligations), such Collateral is delivered to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, or the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent shall have been vested with such possession or (unless, pursuant to the UCC or STA, as applicable, control may be given concurrently to the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent and the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent) “control,” in each case, subject to the provisions of this Section 5.4.
 
(g) The parties hereto further agree that to the extent the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent is specified as the lienholder on the certificates of title with respect to any Motor Vehicles (as defined in the Fixed Asset Security Agreement) of any Grantor, then (including for the purposes of the
 

 
-28-

 


applicable state certificate of title laws and any other applicable laws) the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent shall act as agent for both the Revolving Credit Claimholders and the Fixed Asset Claimholders in order to perfect and secure both the Revolving Credit Obligations and the Fixed Asset Obligations, provided that, notwithstanding that there may be only one lienholder noted on such certificate of title for such purposes, the priorities as between the rights of the Revolving Credit Claimholders and the Fixed Asset Claimholders shall be as if there were two separate Liens, subject to the priorities and other terms of this Agreement.  In furtherance of the foregoing, (i) the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent hereby appoints the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent as its collateral agent for the limited purpose of acting as the agent on behalf of the Fixed Asset Claimholders with respect to the applicable Motor Vehicles solely for purposes of perfecting the Liens of such parties on such Motor Vehicles and releasing such Liens when required by the terms of the Fixed Asset Documents and (ii) in order to secure the prompt payment and performance of the Fixed Asset Obligations, each Grantor hereby grants to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, as agent for the Fixed Asset Claimholders, a security interest in all right, title and interest of such Grantor in, to and under all Motor Vehicles and, for purposes of Section 5.4(a), all Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts (other than any Fixed Asset Priority Collateral Proceeds Account), whether now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor.  Such grant creates a security interest wholly separate from the security interest in such Motor Vehicles and such Deposit Accounts and Securities Account granted to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent in the Revolving Credit Documents as security for the Revolving Credit Obligations. The duties or responsibilities of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent under this Section 5.4(g) shall be limited solely to holding (either itself or through its appointment of a custodian or agent) a Lien on such Motor Vehicles (and releasing such Lien), or the Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts, as applicable, as agent in accordance with this Section 5.4(g).
 
5.5. When Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations and Discharge of Fixed Asset Obligations Deemed to Not Have Occurred.  If in connection with the Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations or the Discharge of Fixed Asset Obligations, the Borrower substantially concurrently enters into any Refinancing of any Revolving Credit Obligation or Fixed Asset Obligation as the case may be, which Refinancing is permitted by both the Fixed Asset Documents and the Revolving Credit Documents, in each case, to the extent such documents will remain in effect following such Refinancing, then such Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations or the Discharge of Fixed Asset Obligations, shall automatically be deemed not to have occurred for all purposes of this Agreement (other than with respect to any actions taken pursuant to this Agreement as a result of the occurrence of such Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations or Discharge of Fixed Asset Obligations, as applicable) and, from and after the date on which the New Debt Notice is delivered to the appropriate Collateral Agents in accordance with the next sentence, the obligations under such Refinancing shall automatically be treated as Revolving Credit Obligations or Fixed Asset Obligations for all purposes of this Agreement, including for purposes of the Lien priorities and rights in respect of Collateral set forth herein, and the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or Fixed Asset Collateral Agent, as the case may be, under such new Revolving Credit Documents or new Fixed Asset Documents shall be the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or a Fixed Asset Collateral Agent for all purposes of this Agreement.  Upon receipt of a notice (the “New Debt Notice”) stating that the Borrower has entered into new Revolving Credit Documents or new Fixed Asset Documents (which notice shall include a complete copy of the relevant new documents and provide the identity of the new collateral agent (such agent, the “New Agent”)), the other Collateral Agents shall promptly (a) enter into such documents and agreements (including amendments or supplements to this Agreement) as the Borrower or such New Agent shall reasonably request in order to provide to the New Agent the rights contemplated hereby, in each case consistent in all material respects with the terms of this Agreement and (b) deliver to the New Agent any Pledged Collateral (that is Fixed Asset Priority Collateral, in the case of a New Agent that is the agent under any new Fixed Asset Documents or that is ABL Collateral, in the case of a New Agent that is the agent under any new Revolving Credit Documents) held by it together with any necessary endorsements (or otherwise allow the New Agent to obtain control of such Pledged Collateral).  The New Agent shall agree in a writing addressed to the other Collateral
 

 
-29-

 


Agents for the benefit of the Revolving Credit Claimholders or the Fixed Asset Claimholders, as the case may be, to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.  If the new Revolving Credit Obligations under the new Revolving Credit Documents or the new Fixed Asset Obligations under the new Fixed Asset Documents are secured by assets of the Grantors constituting Collateral that do not also secure the other Obligations, then the other Obligations shall be secured at such time by a Lien on such assets to the same extent provided in the Revolving Credit Documents, Fixed Asset Collateral Documents and this Agreement.
 
SECTION 6. Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings.
 
6.1. Finance Issues.
 
(a) Until the Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations has occurred, if any Grantor shall be subject to any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent shall desire to permit the use of “Cash Collateral” (as such term is defined in Section 363(a) of the Bankruptcy Code) that consists of ABL Collateral on which the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent or any other creditor has a Lien or to permit any Grantor to obtain financing, whether from the Revolving Credit Claimholders or any other Person, under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision of any Bankruptcy Law) that is to be secured by the ABL Collateral (a “Revolving DIP Financing”) then the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Fixed Asset Claimholders, agrees that it will raise no objection to such Cash Collateral use or Revolving DIP Financing so long as such Cash Collateral use or Revolving DIP Financing meet the following requirements:  (i) the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent and the Fixed Asset Claimholders retain the right to object to any ancillary agreements or arrangements regarding the Cash Collateral use or the Revolving DIP Financing that are materially prejudicial to their interests in the Fixed Asset Priority Collateral, and (ii) the terms of the Revolving DIP Financing (A) do not compel the applicable Grantor to seek confirmation of a specific plan of reorganization for which all or substantially all of the material terms are set forth in the Revolving DIP Financing documentation or a related document, (B) do not expressly require the liquidation of the Collateral prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Revolving DIP Financing documentation or Cash Collateral order and (C) do not require that any Lien of the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent on the Fixed Asset Priority Collateral be subordinated to or pari passu with the Lien on the Fixed Asset Priority Collateral securing such Revolving DIP Financing.  To the extent the Liens securing the Revolving Credit Obligations are subordinated to or pari passu with such Revolving DIP Financing which meets the requirements of clauses (i) and (ii) above, the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent will subordinate its Liens in the ABL Collateral (to the same extent subordinated to such ABL Collateral) to the Liens securing such Revolving DIP Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto), provided, however, that the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent may request adequate protection under Section 361 of the Bankruptcy Code in respect of such subordinated Liens in a manner that is consistent with Section 6.3.
 
(b) Until the Discharge of Fixed Asset Obligations has occurred, if any Grantor shall be subject to any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent shall desire to permit the use of “Cash Collateral” (as such term is defined in Section 363(a) of the Bankruptcy Code) that consists of Fixed Asset Priority Collateral (if any) on which the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent or any other creditor has a Lien or to permit any Grantor to obtain financing, whether from the Fixed Asset Claimholders or any other Person, under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar Bankruptcy Law that is to be secured by the Fixed Asset Priority Collateral (a “Fixed Asset DIP Financing”) then each Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the applicable Revolving Credit Claimholders, agrees that it will raise no objection to such Cash Collateral use or Fixed Asset DIP Financing so long as such Cash Collateral use or Fixed Asset DIP Financing meet the following requirements:  (i) the Revolving Credit Collateral Agents and the Revolving Credit Claimholders retain the right to object to any ancillary agreements or arrangements regarding the Cash Collateral use or the

Fixed Asset DIP Financing that are materially prejudicial to their interests in the ABL Collateral, and (ii) the terms of the Fixed Asset DIP Financing (A) do not compel the applicable Grantor to seek confirmation of a specific plan of reorganization for which all or substantially all of the material terms are set forth in the Fixed Asset DIP Financing documentation or a related document, (B) do not expressly require the liquidation of the Collateral prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Fixed Asset DIP Financing documentation or Cash Collateral order and (C) do not require that any Lien of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agents on the ABL Collateral be subordinated to or pari passu with the Lien on the ABL Collateral securing such Fixed Asset DIP Financing.  To the extent the Liens securing the Fixed Asset Obligations are subordinated to or pari passu with such Fixed Asset DIP Financing which meets the requirements of clauses (i) and (ii) above, each Revolving Credit Collateral Agent will subordinate its Liens in the Fixed Asset Priority Collateral (to the same extent subordinated to such Fixed Asset Priority Collateral) to the Liens securing such Fixed Asset DIP Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto), all adequate protection Liens granted to the Revolving Credit Claimholders, and any “carve out” from Collateral for professional and United States Trustee fees that has been agreed to by the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent, provided, however, that the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent may request adequate protection under Section 361 of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision of any applicable Bankruptcy Law) in respect of such subordinated Liens in a manner that is consistent with Section 6.3.
 
6.2. Relief from the Automatic Stay.
 
(a) Until the Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations has occurred, the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Fixed Asset Claimholders, agrees that none of them shall seek (or support any other Person seeking) relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the ABL Collateral for the purpose of exercising remedies with respect to the Fixed Asset Obligations, without the prior written consent of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, unless a motion for adequate protection permitted under Section 6.3 has been denied by the bankruptcy court.
 
(b) Until the Discharge of Fixed Asset Obligations has occurred, the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Revolving Credit Claimholders, agrees that none of them shall (i) seek (or support any other Person seeking) relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Fixed Asset Priority Collateral for the purpose of exercising remedies with respect to the Revolving Credit Obligations (other than to the extent such relief is required to exercise its rights under Section 3.3), without the prior written consent of the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent, or (ii) object to any motion by the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent seeking relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Collateral for the purpose of exercising remedies with respect to the Fixed Asset Obligations.

(b) The Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Revolving Credit Claimholders, agrees that none of them shall contest (or support any other Person contesting):

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions in this Section 6.3, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding:
 
(1) if the Revolving Credit Claimholders (or any subset thereof) are granted adequate protection with respect to the ABL Collateral in the form of additional or replacement collateral
 

 
-32-

 


of the Credit Parties (even if such collateral is not of a type which would otherwise have constituted ABL Collateral) in connection with any Cash Collateral use or Revolving DIP Financing, then the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself or any of the Fixed Asset Claimholders, may seek or request adequate protection with respect to its interests in such Collateral in the form of a Lien on the same additional or replacement collateral, which Lien will be subordinated to the Liens securing and granted as adequate protection for the Revolving Credit Obligations and such Cash Collateral use or Revolving DIP Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto) on the same basis as the other Liens of the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent on ABL Collateral;
 
(2) if the Fixed Asset Claimholders (or any subset thereof) are granted adequate protection with respect to the Fixed Asset Priority Collateral in the form of additional or replacement collateral of the Credit Parties (even if such collateral is not of a type which would otherwise have constituted Fixed Asset Priority Collateral) in connection with any Cash Collateral use or Fixed Asset DIP Financing, then the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself or any of the Revolving Credit Claimholders, may seek or request adequate protection with respect to its interests in such Collateral in the form of a Lien on the same additional or replacement collateral, which Lien will be subordinated to the Liens securing the Fixed Asset Obligations and such Cash Collateral use or Fixed Asset DIP Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto) on the same basis as the other Liens of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent on Fixed Asset Priority Collateral;

(4) in the event the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself or any of the Fixed Asset Claimholders, seeks or requests adequate protection in respect of Fixed Asset Priority Collateral and such adequate protection is granted in the form of additional or replacement collateral of the Credit Parties (even if such collateral is not of a type which would otherwise have constituted Fixed Asset Priority Collateral), then the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and any of the Fixed Asset Claimholders, agrees that the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent may also be granted a Lien on the same additional or replacement collateral as security for the Revolving Credit Obligations, and the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and any of the Revolving Credit Claimholders, agrees that any Lien on such additional or replacement collateral securing the Revolving Credit Obligations shall be subordinated to the Liens on such collateral securing the Fixed Asset Obligations and to any other Liens granted to the Fixed Asset Claimholders as adequate protection with respect to the Fixed Asset Priority Collateral, all on the same basis as the other Liens of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent on Fixed Asset Priority Collateral.

(a) The Fixed Asset Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Fixed Asset Claimholders, and the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Revolving Credit Claimholders, acknowledge and agree that the grants of Liens pursuant to the Revolving Credit Collateral Documents and the Fixed Asset Collateral Documents constitute separate and distinct grants of Liens, and because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Collateral, the Fixed Asset Obligations are fundamentally different from the Revolving Credit Obligations and must be separately classified in any plan of reorganization or similar dispositive plan or arrangement proposed, confirmed or adopted in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.  In furtherance of the foregoing, the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Fixed Asset Claimholders, and the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Revolving Credit Claimholders, agree that the Fixed Asset Claimholders and the Revolving Credit Claimholders will vote and otherwise be treated as separate classes in connection with any plan of reorganization or similar dispositive plan or arrangement in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and that no Collateral Agent nor any Claimholder will seek to vote with the other as a single class in connection with any plan of reorganization or similar dispositive plan or arrangement in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, or vote in a manner that is otherwise in accordance with this Agreement.
 
(b) To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in this Section 6.7, if it is held that the claims of the Fixed Asset Claimholders and the Revolving Credit Claimholders in respect of the Fixed Asset Collateral constitute only one secured claim (rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims with respect to such Fixed Asset Collateral), then the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Fixed Asset Claimholders, and the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Revolving Credit Claimholders, hereby acknowledge and agree that, subject to Sections 2.1 and 4.1, all distributions from the Fixed Asset Collateral shall be made as if there were separate classes of senior and junior allowed secured claims against the Grantors in respect of the Fixed Asset Collateral (with the effect being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the Fixed Asset Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the Revolving Credit Claimholders), the Fixed Asset Claimholders 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, including any additional interest payable pursuant to the Fixed Asset Documents, arising from or related to a default, regardless of whether any claim therefor is allowed or allowable in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding) before any distribution is made from the Fixed Asset Priority Collateral in respect of the claims held by the Revolving Credit Claimholders, with the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Revolving Credit Claimholders, hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Fixed Asset Claimholders, amounts otherwise received or receivable by them from the Fixed Asset Priority Collateral to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing the claim or recovery of the Revolving Credit Claimholders.
 
(c) To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in this Section 6.7, if it is held that the claims of the Fixed Asset Claimholders and the Revolving Credit Claimholders in respect of the Revolving Credit Collateral constitute only one secured claim (rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims with respect to such Revolving Credit Collateral), then the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Fixed Asset Claimholders, and the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Revolving Credit Claimholders, hereby acknowledge and agree that, subject to Sections 2.1 and 4.1, all distributions from the Revolving Credit Collateral shall be made as if there were separate classes of senior and junior allowed secured claims against the Grantors in respect of the Revolving Credit Collateral (with the effect being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the Revolving Credit Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the Fixed
 

 
-35-

 


Asset Claimholders), the Revolving Credit Claimholders 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, including any additional interest payable pursuant to the Revolving Credit Agreement, arising from or related to a default, which is disallowed as a claim in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding) before any distribution is made from the Revolving Credit Collateral in respect of the claims held by the Fixed Asset Claimholders, with the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Fixed Asset Claimholders, hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Revolving Credit Claimholders, amounts otherwise received or receivable by them from the Revolving Credit Collateral to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing the claim or recovery of the Fixed Asset Claimholders.
 
(d) Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent and the Fixed Asset Claimholders, on the one hand, and the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and the Revolving Credit Claimholders, on the other hand, shall retain the right to vote and otherwise act in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding (including the right to vote to accept or reject any plan of reorganization or arrangement) to the extent not inconsistent with the provisions hereof.
 
6.8. Enforceability and Continuing Priority.  This Agreement shall be applicable both before and after the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and all converted or succeeding cases in respect thereof.  The relative rights of Claimholders in or to any distributions from or in respect of any Collateral or Proceeds of Collateral shall continue after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding.  Accordingly, the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 2.1 hereof) are intended to be and shall be enforceable as a subordination agreement within the meaning of Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision of other applicable Bankruptcy Law).
 
6.9. Sales.  Subject to Sections 3.1(c)(5) and 3.2(c)(5) and 3.3, each Collateral Agent agrees that it will consent, and will not object or oppose, or support any party in opposing, a motion to sell or otherwise dispose of any Priority Collateral of the other party free and clear of any Liens or other claims under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision of other applicable Bankruptcy Law) if the requisite Revolving Credit Claimholders under the Revolving Credit Agreement or Fixed Asset Claimholders under the applicable Fixed Asset Documents, as the case may be, have consented to such disposition of their respective Priority Collateral, such motion does not impair, subject to the priorities set forth in this Agreement, the rights of such party under Section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar Bankruptcy Law (so long as the right of any Fixed Asset Claimholder to offset its claim against the purchase price for any ABL Collateral exists only after the Revolving Credit Obligations have been paid in full in cash, and so long as the right of any Revolving Credit Claimholder to offset its claim against the purchase price for any Fixed Asset Priority Collateral exists only after the Fixed Asset Obligations have been paid in full in cash), and the terms of any proposed order approving such transaction provide for the respective Liens to attach to the proceeds of the Priority Collateral that is the subject of such disposition, subject to the Lien priorities in Section 2.1 and the other terms and conditions of this Agreement and further provided that such party may assert any objection to such proposed sale or disposition that may be raised by an unsecured creditor of the Grantors.  Each of the Fixed Asset Collateral Agent and the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent further agrees that it will not oppose, or support any party in opposing, the right of the other party to credit bid under Section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision of other applicable Bankruptcy Law).

8.2. Effectiveness; Continuing Nature of this Agreement; Severability.  This Agreement shall become effective when executed and delivered by the parties hereto.  This is a continuing agreement of lien subordination and the Revolving Credit Claimholders and Fixed Asset Claimholders may continue, at any time and without notice to any Collateral Agent, to extend credit and other financial accommodations and lend monies to or for the benefit of any Grantor in reliance hereon.  Each of the Collateral Agents, on behalf of itself and the Revolving Credit Claimholders or the Fixed Asset Claimholders, as the case may be, hereby waives any right it may have under applicable law to revoke this Agreement or any of the provisions of this Agreement.  The terms of this Agreement shall survive, and shall continue in full force and effect, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.  Consistent with, but not in limitation of, the preceding sentence, each Collateral Agent, on behalf of the applicable Claimholders, irrevocably acknowledges that this Agreement constitutes a “subordination agreement” within the meaning of both New York law and Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision of other applicable Bankruptcy Law).  Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.  All references to any Grantor shall include such Grantor as debtor and debtor-in-possession and any receiver or trustee for any Grantor (as the case may be) in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.  This Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect:
