LIEN PRIORITIES; PROCEEDS

SECTION 2.01.    Relative Priorities

.

(a)Notwithstanding the date, time, method, manner or order of grant, attachment or perfection of any Lien on any Shared Collateral securing any Second Lien Obligation or the date, time, method or order in which the Second Lien Obligations arise and regardless of any intermediate discharge of the Second Lien Obligations in whole or in part, and notwithstanding any provision of the Uniform Commercial Code of any jurisdiction, any other applicable law or any Second Lien Document, or any other circumstance whatsoever (but, in each case, subject to Section 2.01(b) and Section 2.02),

Active 100767472.4

each Second Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of its Related Second Lien Claimholders, agrees that Liens on any Shared Collateral securing Second Lien Obligations of any Class shall be of equal priority and the benefits and proceeds of the Shared Collateral shall be shared among such Classes as provided herein.

(b)Anything contained herein or in any of the Second Lien Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and the Applicable Collateral Agent is taking action to enforce rights in respect of any Collateral, or any distribution is made in respect of any Shared Collateral in any Bankruptcy Case of any Grantor or any Second Lien Claimholder receives any payment pursuant to any intercreditor agreement (other than this Agreement) or otherwise with respect to any Shared Collateral, the Proceeds shall be applied by the Applicable Collateral Agent in the following order:

(i)FIRST, to the payment of all amounts owing to each Second Lien Collateral Agent (in its capacity as such) and each Second Lien Representative (in its capacity as such) secured by such Shared Collateral or, in the case of Equity Release Proceeds, secured by the Underlying Assets, including all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by each Second Lien Collateral Agent (in its capacity as such) and each Second Lien Representative (in its capacity as such) in connection with such collection or sale or otherwise in connection with this Agreement, any other Second Lien Document or any of the Second Lien Obligations, including all court costs and the reasonable fees and expenses of its agents and legal counsel, and any other reasonable costs or expenses incurred in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or under any other Second Lien Document and all fees and indemnities owing to such Second Lien Collateral Agents and Second Lien Representatives, ratably to each such Second Lien Collateral Agent and Second Lien Representative in accordance with the amounts payable to it pursuant to this clause FIRST;

(ii)SECOND, subject to the terms of the next full paragraph below and terms relating to similar liens contained in this Agreement, to the extent Proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clause (a), to each Second Lien Representative for the payment in full of the other Second Lien Obligations of each Series secured by such Shared Collateral or, in the case of Equity Release Proceeds, secured by the Underlying Assets, and, if the amount of such Proceeds are insufficient to pay in full the Second Lien Obligations of each Series so secured then such Proceeds shall be allocated among the Second Lien Representatives of each Series secured by such Shared Collateral or, in the case of Equity Release Proceeds, secured by the Underlying Assets, pro rata according to the amounts of such Second Lien Obligations owing to each such respective Second Lien Representative and the other Second Lien Claimholders represented by it for distribution by such Second Lien Representative in accordance with its respective Second Lien Documents; and

(iii)THIRD, any balance of such Proceeds remaining after the application pursuant to preceding clauses (ii) and (iii), to the Grantors, their successors or assigns from time to time, or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same.

If, despite the provisions of this Section 2.01(b), any Second Lien Claimholder shall receive any payment or other recovery in excess of its portion of payments on account of the Second Lien Obligations to which it is then entitled in accordance with this Section 2.01(b), such Second Lien Claimholder shall hold such payment or recovery in trust for the benefit of all Second Lien

Active 100767472.4

Claimholders for distribution in accordance with this Section 2.01(b). Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Shared Collateral for which a third party (other than a Second Lien Claimholder) has a lien or security interest that is junior in priority to the security interest of any Series of Second Lien Obligations but senior (as determined by appropriate legal proceedings in the case of any dispute) to the security interest of any other Series of Second Lien Obligations, the value of any Shared Collateral or Proceeds allocated to such third party shall be deducted on a ratable basis solely from the Shared Collateral or Proceeds to be distributed in respect of the Series of Second Lien Obligations with respect to which such Impairment exists.

(c)For the avoidance of doubt, any amounts to be distributed pursuant to this Section 2.01 shall be distributed by the Applicable Collateral Agent to each Non-Controlling Representative for further distribution to its Related Second Lien Claimholders.

(d)It is acknowledged that the Second Lien Obligations of any Class may, subject to the limitations set forth in the then extant Second Lien Documents, be increased, extended, renewed, replaced, restated, supplemented, restructured, repaid, refunded, Refinanced or otherwise amended or modified from time to time, all without affecting the priorities set forth in Section 2.01(b) or the provisions of this Agreement defining the relative rights of the Second Lien Claimholders of any Class.

SECTION 2.02.    Impairments

. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the Second Lien Claimholders of any given Class of Second Lien Obligations (and not the Second Lien Claimholders of any other Class of Second Lien Obligations) bear the risk of any determination by a court of competent jurisdiction that (i) any Second Lien Obligations of such Class of Second Lien Obligations are unenforceable under applicable law or are subordinated to any other obligations (other than another Class of Second Lien Obligations), (ii) the Second Lien Claimholders of such Class of Second Lien Obligations do not have a valid and perfected Lien on any of the Collateral securing any Second Lien Obligations of any other Class of Second Lien Obligations and/or (iii) any Person (other than any Second Lien Collateral Agent or Second Lien Claimholder) has a Lien on any Shared Collateral that is senior in priority to the Lien on such Shared Collateral securing Second Lien Obligations of such Class of Second Lien Obligations, but junior to the Lien on such Shared Collateral securing any other Class of Second Lien Obligations (any such Lien being referred to as an “Intervening Lien”, and any such Person being referred to as an “Intervening Creditor”) (any condition with respect to Second Lien Obligations of such Class of Second Lien Obligations being referred to as an “Impairment” of such Class); provided that the existence of a maximum claim with respect to any real property subject to a mortgage that applies to all Second Lien Obligations shall not be deemed to be an Impairment of any Class of Second Lien Obligations. In the event an Impairment exists with respect to Second Lien Obligations of any Class, the results of such Impairment shall be borne solely by the Second Lien Claimholders of such Class of Second Lien Obligations, and the rights of the Second Lien Claimholders of such Class of Second Lien Obligations (including the right to receive distributions in respect of Second Lien Obligations of such Class of Second Lien Obligations pursuant to Section 2.01(b)) set forth herein shall be modified to the extent necessary so that the results of such Impairment are borne solely by the Second Lien Claimholders of such Class. In furtherance of the foregoing, in the event Second Lien Obligations of any Class of Second Lien Obligations shall be subject to an Impairment in the form of an Intervening Lien of any Intervening Creditor, the value of any Shared Collateral or Proceeds that are allocated to such Intervening Creditor shall be deducted solely from the Shared Collateral or Proceeds to be distributed in respect of Second Lien Obligations of such Class. In the event Second Lien Obligations of any Class of Second Lien Obligations are modified pursuant to applicable law (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code), any reference to such Second Lien Obligations or the

Active 100767472.4

First Lien Security Documents (as defined in the Initial 2021 Indenture) governing such Second Lien Obligations shall refer to such obligations or such documents as so modified.

SECTION 2.03.    Payment Over

. Each Second Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and its Related Second Lien Claimholders, agrees that if such Second Lien Collateral Agent or any of its Related Second Lien Claimholders shall at any time obtain possession of any Shared Collateral or receive any Proceeds (other than as a result of any application of Proceeds pursuant to Section 2.01(b)), in each case pursuant to any Second Lien Collateral Document or by the exercise of any rights available to it under applicable law or in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or through any other exercise of remedies (including pursuant to any intercreditor agreement) or otherwise in contravention of this Agreement, at any time prior to the Discharge of each of the Second Lien Obligations, then it shall hold such Shared Collateral or Proceeds in trust for the other Second Lien Claimholders and promptly transfer such Shared Collateral or Proceeds, as the case may be, to the Controlling Claimholder, to be distributed in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.01(b) hereof.

SECTION 2.04.    Determinations with Respect to Amounts of Obligations and Liens

. Whenever the Second Lien Collateral Agent of any Class shall be required, in connection with the exercise of its rights or the performance of its obligations hereunder, to determine the existence or amount of any Second Lien Obligations of any other Class, or the Shared Collateral subject to any Lien securing the Second Lien Obligations of any other Class (and whether such Lien constitutes a valid and perfected Lien), it may request that such information be furnished to it in writing by the Second Lien Collateral Agent or Second Lien Representative of such other Class and shall be entitled to make such determination on the basis of the information so furnished; provided that if, notwithstanding the request of the Second Lien Collateral Agent of such Class, the Second Lien Collateral Agent or Second Lien Representative of such other Class shall fail or refuse reasonably promptly to provide the requested information, the Second Lien Collateral Agent of such Class shall be entitled to make any such determination by such method as it may, in the exercise of its good faith judgment, determine, including by reliance upon a certificate of an Authorized Officer of the Company. Each Second Lien Collateral Agent may rely conclusively, and shall be fully protected in so relying, on any determination made by it in accordance with the provisions of the preceding sentence (or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction) and shall have no liability to any Grantor, any Second Lien Claimholder or any other Person as a result of such determination or any action taken or not taken pursuant thereto.

SECTION 2.05.    Exculpatory Provisions.

Without limitation of Article VI, none of the Second Lien Collateral Agents or any Second Lien Claimholders shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any Second Lien Collateral Agent, Second Lien Representative or Second Lien Claimholder with respect to any Shared Collateral in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

(f)Notwithstanding the equal priority of the Liens securing each Series of Second Lien Obligations granted on the Shared Collateral, the Applicable Collateral Agent (acting on the instructions of the Applicable Representative) is permitted to deal with the Shared Collateral as if such Applicable Collateral Agent had a senior and exclusive Lien on such Shared Collateral. No Non-Controlling Representative, Non-Controlling Claimholder or Second Lien Collateral Agent that is not the Applicable Collateral Agent is permitted to contest, protest or object to any foreclosure proceeding or action brought by the Applicable Collateral Agent, the Applicable Representative or the Controlling Claimholders or any other exercise by the Applicable Collateral Agent, the Applicable Representative or the Controlling Claimholders of any rights and remedies relating to the Shared Collateral.

Representative) agrees that it will not accept any Lien on any Collateral for the benefit of any Series of Other Second Lien Obligations (other than funds deposited for the satisfaction, discharge or defeasance of any Other Second Lien Agreement) other than pursuant to the Second Lien Collateral Documents, and by executing this Agreement, each such Second Lien Collateral Agent and each such Second Lien Representative and the Series of Second Lien Claimholders for which it is acting pursuant to this Agreement agree to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement and the other Second Lien Collateral Documents applicable to it.

SECTION 3.02.    Prohibition on Contesting Liens

. Each of the Second Lien Claimholders agrees that it will not (and will waive any right to) contest or support any other Person in contesting, in any proceeding (including any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding), the perfection, priority, validity or enforceability of a Lien held by or on behalf of any of the Second Lien Claimholders in all or any part of the Collateral or the provisions of this Agreement; providedthat nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair (a) the rights of any Second Lien Collateral Agent or any Second Lien Representative to enforce this Agreement or (b) the rights of any Second Lien Claimholder to contest or support any other Person in contesting the enforceability of any Lien purporting to secure obligations not constituting Second Lien Obligations.

SECTION 3.04.    Release of Liens

. If, at any time any Shared Collateral is transferred to a third party or otherwise disposed of, in each case, in connection with any enforcement by the Applicable Collateral Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, then (whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding is pending at the time) the Liens in favor of the other Second Lien Collateral Agents for the benefit of each Series of Second Lien Claimholders (or in favor of such other Second Lien Claimholders if directly secured by such Liens) upon such Shared Collateral will automatically be released and discharged upon final conclusion of such disposition as and when, but only to the extent, such Liens of the Applicable Collateral Agent on such Shared Collateral are released and discharged; providedthat any proceeds of any Shared Collateral realized therefrom shall be applied pursuant to the priority set forth in this Agreement.

If in connection with any such foreclosure or other exercise of remedies by the Applicable Collateral Agent, the equity interests of any Person are foreclosed upon or otherwise disposed of and the Applicable Collateral Agent releases its Lien on the property or assets of such Person, then the Liens of each other Second Lien Collateral Agent (or in favor of such other Second Lien Claimholders if directly secured by such Liens) with respect to any Shared Collateral consisting of the property or assets of such Person will be automatically released to the same extent as the Liens of the Applicable Collateral Agent are released; providedthat any proceeds of any such equity interests foreclosed upon where the Applicable Collateral

(a)This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding against the Company or any other Grantor, and the parties hereto acknowledge that this Agreement is intended to be and shall be enforceable as a “subordination” agreement under Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or any equivalent provision of any other Bankruptcy Law. All references herein to any Grantor shall apply to any receiver or trustee for such Person and such Person as a debtor-in-possession.

(b)If any Grantor shall become subject to a case (a “Bankruptcy Case”) under the Bankruptcy Code and shall, as debtor(s)-in-possession, move for approval of financing (“DIP Financing”) to be provided by one or more lenders (the “DIP Lenders”) under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or the use of cash collateral under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, each Second Lien Claimholder (other than any Controlling Claimholder or any Second Lien Representative of any Controlling Claimholder) agrees that it will not raise any objection to any such financing or to the Liens on the Shared Collateral securing the same (“DIP Financing Liens”) or to any use of cash collateral that constitutes Shared Collateral, unless a Second Lien Representative of the Controlling Claimholders shall then oppose or object to such DIP Financing or such DIP Financing Liens or use of cash collateral (and (i) to the extent that such DIP Financing Liens are senior to the Liens on any such Shared Collateral for the benefit of the Controlling

Active 100767472.4

Claimholders, each Non-Controlling Claimholder will subordinate its Liens with respect to such Shared Collateral on the same terms as the Liens of the Controlling Claimholders (other than any Liens of any Second Lien Claimholders constituting DIP Financing Liens) are subordinated thereto, and (ii) to the extent that such DIP Financing Liens rank pari passu with the Liens on any such Shared Collateral granted to secure the Second Lien Obligations of the Controlling Claimholders, each Non-Controlling Claimholder will confirm the priorities with respect to such Shared Collateral as set forth in this Agreement), in each case so long as (1) the Second Lien Claimholders of each Series retain the benefit of their Liens on all such Shared Collateral pledged to the DIP Lenders, including proceeds thereof arising after the commencement of such proceeding, with the same priority vis-à-vis all the other Second Lien Claimholders (other than any Liens of the Second Lien Claimholders constituting DIP Financing Liens) as existed prior to the commencement of the Bankruptcy Case, (2) the Second Lien Claimholders of each Series are granted Liens on any additional collateral pledged to any Second Lien Claimholders as adequate protection or otherwise in connection with such DIP Financing or use of cash collateral, with the same priority vis-à-vis the Second Lien Claimholders as set forth in this Agreement (other than any Liens of any Second Lien Claimholders constituting DIP Financing Liens), (3) if any amount of such DIP Financing or cash collateral is applied to repay any of the Second Lien Obligations, such amount is applied pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and (4) if any Second Lien Claimholders are granted adequate protection with respect to the Second Lien Obligations subject hereto, including in the form of periodic payments, in connection with such use of cash collateral, the proceeds of such adequate protection are applied pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; providedthat the Second Lien Claimholders of each Series shall have a right to object to the grant of a Lien to secure the DIP Financing over any Collateral subject to Liens in favor of the Second Lien Claimholders of such Series or its Second Lien Representative that shall not constitute Shared Collateral (unless such Collateral fails to constitute Shared Collateral because the Lien in respect thereof constitutes a declined lien with respect to such Second Lien Claimholders or their Second Lien Representative or Second Lien Collateral Agent); provided,further, that the Second Lien Claimholders receiving adequate protection shall not be permitted to object to any other Second Lien Claimholder receiving adequate protection comparable to any adequate protection granted to such Second Lien Claimholders in connection with a DIP Financing or use of cash collateral.

(c)If any Second Lien Claimholder is granted adequate protection (i) in the form of Liens on any additional collateral, then each other Second Lien Claimholder shall be entitled to seek, and each Second Lien Claimholder will consent and not object to, adequate protection in the form of Liens on such additional collateral with the same priority vis-à-vis the Second Lien Claimholders as set forth in this Agreement, (ii) in the form of a superpriority or other administrative claim, then each other Second Lien Claimholder shall be entitled to seek, and each Second Lien Claimholder will consent and not object to, adequate protection in the form of a pari passu superpriority or administrative claim or (iii) in the form of periodic or other cash payments, then the proceeds of such adequate protection must be applied to all Second Lien Obligations pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(d)If, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise, all or part of any payment with respect to the Second Lien Obligations of any Class previously made shall be avoided or rescinded for any reason whatsoever (including an order or judgment for disgorgement of a preference, fraudulent transfer or other avoidance action under the Bankruptcy Code, or any equivalent provision of any other Bankruptcy Law), then the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be fully applicable thereto until all the Second Lien Obligations of such Class shall again have been satisfied in full in cash. This Section 5.01 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

To the extent any Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Claimholder receives proceeds of such insurance policy and such proceeds are not permitted or required to be returned to any Grantor under the applicable Second Lien Documents, such proceeds shall be turned over to the Applicable Collateral Agent for application as provided in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

Active 100767472.4

that might be asserted to bar the remedy of specific performance in any action which may be brought by the Second Lien Claimholders.

SECTION 10.14.    Integration
