In furtherance of the foregoing and of Section 9.10, the parties hereto agree, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, upon request by the First Lien Agent or the Trustee, to cooperate in good faith (and to direct their counsel to cooperate in good faith) from time to time in order to (i) determine the specific items included in the First Lien Collateral and the Second Lien Collateral and the steps taken to perfect their respective Liens thereon and the identity of the respective parties obligated under the First Lien Documents and the Second Lien Documents and (ii) agree upon the forms of the First Lien Collateral Documents and the Second Lien Collateral Documents. SECTION 3. PAYMENTS SECTION 3.1. Establishment of Accounts. (a) Pursuant to the terms of the Servicing Agreement, Royalty Sub will cause Servicer, acting on behalf of Royalty Sub, to establish and maintain with the Operating Bank on its books and records in the name of Royalty Sub, subject to the Liens established under the First Lien Collateral Documents and the Second Lien Collateral Documents, (i) a collection account (the "Collection Account"), (ii) a holding account -3- (the "Holding Account"), (iii) a repayment and redemption account (the "Repayment/Redemption Account"), (iv) an escrow account (the "Escrow Account"), (v) a capital contribution account (the "Capital Account"), and (vi) any additional accounts the establishment of which is set forth in a Board Resolution delivered by Royalty Sub to Servicer and the Collection Agent, in each case at such time as is set forth in this Section 3.1 or in such Board Resolution. Each Account shall be established and maintained as an Eligible Account so as to create, perfect and establish the priority of the Liens established under the First Lien Collateral Documents and the Second Lien Collateral Documents in such Account and all cash, Eligible Investments and other property from time to time deposited therein and otherwise to effectuate the Liens under the First Lien Collateral Documents and the Second Lien Collateral Documents.

Each of Royalty Sub (for itself and on behalf of Servicer), the Collection Agent, the First Lien Agent and the Trustee acknowledges and agrees that the Accounts are "deposit accounts" or "investment property" within the meaning of Section 9-102 of the UCC, and Royalty Sub agrees to cause (or to direct Servicer to cause) each Operating Bank to enter into an agreement (a "Control Agreement") with Royalty Sub, the First Lien Agent and the Trustee pursuant to which such Operating Bank agrees to comply with any and all instructions of the First Lien Agent or the Trustee (or in either case the Collection Agent on its behalf) directing the disposition, investment and reinvestment of funds in all Accounts maintained with such Operating Bank without the further consent of Royalty Sub or Servicer or any other Person, and Royalty Sub shall take such other actions as are reasonably required by the First Lien Agent and the Trustee to establish its "control", for purposes of Section 9-314 of the UCC, over any such Accounts. Notwithstanding the terms of the immediately foregoing sentence or of any such Control Agreement, the Trustee agrees that it will not give any such instructions to any Operating Bank prior to the Discharge of First Lien Obligations without the prior written consent of the First Lien Agent. (c) If, at any time, any Account ceases to be an Eligible Account, Royalty Sub will cause Servicer or an agent thereof to, within ten Business Days, establish a new Account meeting the conditions set forth in this Section 3.1 in respect of such Account and transfer any cash or investments in the existing Account to such new Account, and, from the date such new Account is established, it shall have the same designation as the existing Account. If the Operating Bank should change at any time, then Royalty Sub will cause Servicer, acting on behalf of Royalty Sub, to thereupon promptly establish replacement Accounts as necessary at the successor Operating Bank and transfer the balance of funds in each Account then maintained at the former Operating Bank pursuant to the terms of the Servicing Agreement to such successor Operating Bank. -4- (d) Royalty Sub will cause Servicer to establish and maintain the Collection Account at the Operating Bank not later than the Closing Date, and the Collection Account shall bear a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Secured Creditors.

No funds shall be deposited in the Collection Account that do not constitute Collections except as expressly provided in this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Collection Agent. (e) Royalty Sub will cause Servicer to establish and maintain the Holding Account at the Operating Bank not later than the Closing Date, and the Holding Account shall bear a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Second Lien Claimholders. Amounts shall be transferred into the Holding Account only following the Discharge of First Lien Obligations pursuant to clause (b)(vi) of Section 3.7. Any such amounts held in the Holding Account may be transferred (i) to the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.6 or (ii) to Royalty Sub pursuant to Section 3.11. (f) Upon receipt of written notice of a voluntary or mandatory repayment of the Loans pursuant to the terms of the First Lien Credit Agreement, or a Redemption of any class of Notes, Royalty Sub will cause Servicer to establish and maintain a Repayment/Redemption Account at the Operating Bank which shall bear a designation clearly indicating that the funds or other assets deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Secured Creditors that are the subject of such voluntary or mandatory repayment or Redemption. All amounts received for the purpose of any such voluntary or mandatory repayment or Redemption shall be deposited in such Repayment/Redemption Account and shall be held in such Account until such amounts are applied to make such voluntary or mandatory repayment and payment of related First Lien Obligations, or pay the Redemption Price of such Notes, in each case in accordance with Section 3.9, together with any premium or related Second Lien Obligations and, if applicable, such Notes are cancelled by the Trustee. (g) Upon notice by the Trustee to the Collection Agent, the First Lien Agent and Servicer that any Noteholder, Agent Member or Beneficial Holder has not delivered a Confidentiality Agreement to the Registrar, Royalty Sub will cause Servicer to establish and maintain an Escrow Account at the Operating Bank in the name of the Trustee which shall bear a designation clearly indicating that the funds or other assets deposited therein are held for the benefit of any such Noteholder, Agent Member or Beneficial Holder. All amounts paid to the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.7 which are to be withheld from such Noteholder, Agent Member or Beneficial Holder pursuant to Section 2.5(d) of the Indenture shall be deposited in such Escrow Account and shall be held in such Account until such amounts are distributed as provided in Section 2.5(d) of the Indenture, and the Collection Agent agrees to act upon the direction of the Trustee to give effect to Section 2.5(d) of the Indenture. (h) Royalty Sub will cause Servicer to establish and maintain the Capital Account at the Operating Bank not later than the Closing Date which shall bear a designation -5- clearly indicating that the funds or other assets deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Secured Creditors into which Quintiles (and the Pledgor, as applicable) shall deposit any capital contributions made to Royalty Sub. All such capital contributions shall be held in such Account and transferred (i) to the Collection Account only to the extent permitted by Section 3.8 and (ii) to the Repayment/Redemption Account only to the extent specifically provided for in any written notice of a voluntary or mandatory repayment of the Loans delivered to the First Lien Agent pursuant to the terms of the First Lien Credit Agreement or written notice of an Optional Redemption delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.1(a) of the Indenture, any written notice of a Mandatory Redemption delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.1(c) of the Indenture or any written notice of a Special Tax Redemption delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.1(d) of the Indenture, in each case for application pursuant to Section 3.7. Following the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, Royalty Sub also may direct the Collection Agent to deposit in the Capital Account all or a portion of any amount otherwise distributable to Royalty Sub pursuant to clause (b)(x) of Section 3.7 or Section 3.11, and the Collection Agent shall maintain a record of the portion of the funds on deposit in the Capital Account allocable to capital contributions and the portion allocable to such deposits. SECTION 3.2. Investments of Cash. Royalty Sub or Servicer, on its behalf, shall direct the Operating Bank holding each Account in writing to invest and reinvest the funds on deposit in the Accounts in Eligible Investments, to the extent available to such Operating Bank; provided, however, that so long as an Event of Default under the First Lien Credit Agreement or the Indenture has occurred and is continuing, the First Lien Agent or, following the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, the Trustee (or in either case the Collection Agent on its behalf) shall direct the Operating Bank to invest such amount in Eligible Investments described in clause (d) of the definition thereof from the time of receipt thereof until such time as such amounts are required to be distributed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. In the absence of written direction delivered to the Operating Bank from Royalty Sub or Servicer, the Operating Bank shall invest any funds in Eligible Investments described in clause (d) of the definition thereof. The Operating Bank shall make such investments and reinvestments in accordance with the terms of the following provisions: (a) the Eligible Investments shall have maturities and other terms such that sufficient funds shall be available to make required payments pursuant to this Agreement on the Business Day immediately preceding the next occurring Payment Date after such investment is made; (b) if any funds to be invested are not received in the Accounts by 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on any Business Day, such funds shall, if possible, be invested in overnight Eligible Investments; and (c) all interest and earnings on Eligible Investments held in the Accounts shall be invested in Eligible Investments on an overnight basis and credited to the appropriate Account until the next Payment Date. -6- Royalty Sub acknowledges that regulations of the U.S. Comptroller of the Currency grant Royalty Sub the right to receive confirmations of security transactions as they occur.

Prior to the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, in any sale or other disposition of any of the Collateral by the Trustee or any Second Lien Claimholder, (A) the Trustee or such Second Lien Claimholder shall conduct such sale or other disposition in a commercially reasonable manner and (B) any Collateral or proceeds thereof received by the Trustee or such Second Lien Claimholders in connection with such sale or other disposition shall, to the extent required under Section 3 and to the extent permitted under Applicable Law, be segregated and held in trust and forthwith paid over, without recourse, representation or warranty, to the Collection Agent for application in accordance with Section 3 in the same form as received, with any necessary endorsements or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. In exercising rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral permitted hereunder, the First Lien Agent and the First Lien Claimholders may enforce the provisions of the First Lien Documents and exercise remedies thereunder and the Trustee and the Second Lien Claimholders may enforce the provisions of the Second Lien Documents and exercise remedies thereunder, in each case, all in such order and in such manner as they may determine in the exercise of their sole discretion.

Unless and until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, and subject to the rights of the Obligors under the First Lien Collateral Documents, all proceeds of any such policy and any such award (or any payments with respect to a deed in lieu of condemnation) in respect of the Collateral shall be paid over to the Collection Agent for application in accordance with Section 3, such other Person as may be entitled thereto or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. If the Trustee or any Second Lien Claimholders shall, at any time prior to the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, receive any proceeds of any such insurance policy or any such award or payment, it shall pay such proceeds over to the Collection Agent for application in accordance with Section 3. SECTION 5.3. Amendments to First Lien Documents and Second Lien Documents. (a) Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, without the prior written consent of the First Lien Agent, no Second Lien Document may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified to the extent such amendment, supplement or modification would (i) contravene the provisions of this Agreement or clause (a) of Section 7.2 of the First Lien Credit Agreement, (ii) increase the Outstanding Principal Balance of the Second Lien Notes (including any Refinancing -19- Notes in respect thereof) to an amount in excess of the Outstanding Principal Balance as of the Closing Date, together with interest that has been accrued and unpaid under the Second Lien Notes (including any Refinancing Notes in respect thereof) and, in the case of Refinancing Notes, any redemption premium provided for in the Indenture and reasonable transaction expenses relating thereto, (iii) increase the "Stated Rate of Interest" or similar component of the interest or the yield on the Second Lien Notes or any Refinancing Notes above the Stated Rate of Interest on the Second Lien Notes (or any Refinancing Notes in respect thereof) as of the date hereof, (iv) provide for dates for payment of principal, interest, premium (if any) or fees which are earlier than such dates under the Indenture or the Second Lien Notes (or any Refinancing Notes in respect thereof) as in effect on the date hereof, (v) provide for covenants, events of default or remedies which are more restrictive in any material respect on any Obligor than those set forth in the Indenture or the Note Purchase Agreements, in each case as in effect on the date hereof, (vi) provide for redemption, prepayment or defeasance provisions that are more burdensome in any material respect on any Obligor than those set forth in the Indenture as in effect on the date hereof, (vii) provide for collateral securing Secured Obligations thereunder which is more extensive than the collateral provided for under the First Lien Documents or (viii) increase the obligations of any Obligor or confer any additional rights on any Second Lien Claimholder which would be adverse to the First Lien Claimholders in any material respect.

The First Lien Agent shall give notice of any amendment, waiver, consent or other modification of any First Lien Document to the Trustee within ten (10) Business Days of the effectiveness of such amendment, waiver, consent or other modification (provided that the failure of any such notice to be given shall not impair or affect the Trustee's or any Second Lien Claimholder's obligations to the First Lien Agent and the First Lien Claimholders, the First Lien Agent's rights hereunder, the enforceability of this Agreement or any Liens created or granted hereby or under any First Lien Document or limit or impair the effectiveness or effect of any such amendment, waiver or consent). (d) In the event the First Lien Agent or the First Lien Claimholders and the relevant Obligor(s) enter into any amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the First Lien Collateral Documents for the purpose of adding to, or deleting from, or waiving or consenting to any departures from any provisions of, any First Lien Collateral Document or changing in any manner the rights of the First Lien Agent, the First Lien Claimholders, or any Obligor thereunder, then such amendment, waiver or consent shall apply automatically to any comparable provision of the Second Lien Collateral Documents without the consent of the Trustee or the Second Lien Claimholders and without any action by the Trustee or any Obligor; provided that (i) no such amendment, waiver or consent shall have the effect of (A) removing assets subject to the Lien of the Second Lien Collateral Documents, except to the extent that a release of such Lien is permitted by Section 5.1 (or, for the avoidance of doubt, is expressly permitted under the terms of the Second Lien Collateral Documents), (B) imposing duties on the Trustee without its consent or (C) permitting other Liens on the Collateral not permitted under the terms of Section 7 and (ii) notice of such amendment, waiver or consent shall have been given to the Trustee within ten (10) Business Days of the effectiveness of such amendment, waiver or consent (provided that the failure of any such notice to be given shall not impair or affect the Trustee's or any Second Lien Claimholder's obligations to the First Lien Agent and the First Lien Claimholders, the First Lien Agent's rights hereunder, the enforceability of this Agreement or any Liens created or granted hereby or under any First Lien Document or limit or impair the effectiveness or effect of any such amendment, waiver or consent or the automatic application thereof to any comparable provision of the Second Lien Documents).

The Trustee and the Second Lien Claimholders may exercise rights and remedies as unsecured creditors against the Obligors in accordance with the terms of the Second Lien Documents and Applicable Law. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by the Trustee or any Second Lien Claimholders of payments in respect of the Second Lien Obligations, so long as such receipt is (i) in accordance with all terms and provisions (including as to priority of payments) of Section 3 and (ii) not the direct or indirect result of the exercise by the Trustee or any Second Lien Claimholders of rights or remedies available to them by virtue of any Lien or enforcement of any Lien, in either case held by them, in contravention of this Agreement. -21- SECTION 5.5.

Upon such Discharge of the First Lien Obligations, the First Lien Agent and the Collection Agent further agree to take all other action reasonably requested by the Trustee, at the sole cost and expense of the Second Lien Claimholders, in connection with the Trustee obtaining a first-priority interest in the Collateral or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct including the establishment of the Accounts in the name of the Trustee.

The First Lien Agent shall give the Trustee prior written notice (a "Trigger Notice") of its intention to either (i) require the Second Lien Claimholders to release their Lien on Collateral pursuant to the terms hereof during the continuance of a Release Event or (ii) take any Lien Enforcement Action or other action taken for the purpose of protecting or preserving Collateral under the First Lien Documents (including written notice to Quintiles of a Liquidated Damages Event, unless the Trustee has given a notice to Quintiles of a Liquidated Damages Event under Section 8.2 of the Purchase and Sale Agreement that has not been rescinded by the First Lien Agent pursuant to the terms of such Section 8.2, in which case no Trigger Notice shall be required), together with a description in -23- reasonable detail as to the Lien Enforcement Action or such other action it intends to take. The First Lien Agent shall give such Trigger Notice (x) in the absence of an Exigent Circumstance, not less than ten Business Days prior to the taking of any such Lien Enforcement Action or other action taken for the purpose of protecting or preserving Collateral under the First Lien Documents or (b) if Exigent Circumstances exist, as soon as practicable and in any event contemporaneously with the taking of such Lien Enforcement Action or such other action. The Trustee, on behalf of the Second Lien Claimholders who elect to so participate pursuant to the Indenture (the "Participating Second Lien Claimholders"), shall then have the option, exercised by delivery of notice to the First Lien Agent on behalf of the First Lien Claimholders (the "Purchase Notice") within ten Business Days following receipt of such Trigger Notice, to purchase all of the First Lien Obligations from the First Lien Claimholders. Such notice from the Trustee to the First Lien Agent shall be irrevocable. In the event that during such ten Business Day period, the Trustee shall send to the First Lien Agent a Purchase Notice, the First Lien Agent shall not commence any Lien Enforcement Action or other foreclosure or other action to sell or otherwise realize upon the Collateral; provided, that continuing collection of amounts to be paid to or on behalf of the First Lien Claimholders under the terms of Section 3 shall not be prohibited hereunder; provided further that the purchase and sale with respect to the First Lien Obligations provided for herein shall have closed within five Business Days after receipt by the First Lien Agent of such Purchase Notice and the First Lien Agent shall have received payment in full of the First Lien Obligations as provided for herein within such five Business Day period. SECTION 6.2. Purchase and Sale. On the date specified by the Trustee in such Purchase Notice (which shall not be less than three Business Days nor more than five Business Days after the receipt by the First Lien Agent of the Purchase Notice from the Trustee), the First Lien Claimholders shall sell to the Trustee (for the account of the Participating Second Lien Claimholders), and the Trustee shall purchase (on behalf of the Participating Second Lien Claimholders) from the First Lien Claimholders, the First Lien Obligations; provided, that the First Lien Agent and the First Lien Claimholders shall retain all rights to be indemnified or held harmless by the Obligors in accordance with the terms of the First Lien Documents but shall not retain any rights to the security therefor. SECTION 6.3. Payment of Purchase Price. Upon the date of such purchase and sale, the Trustee shall (a) pay to the First Lien Agent on behalf of the First Lien Claimholders as the purchase price therefor the full amount of all the First Lien Obligations then outstanding and unpaid (including principal, interest, fees and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and legal expenses) and (b) agree to reimburse the First Lien Claimholders for any loss, cost, damage or expense (including reasonable attorney's fees and legal expenses) in connection with any checks or other payments provisionally credited to the First Lien Obligations as to which any First Lien Claimholder has not yet received final payment. Such purchase price shall be remitted by wire transfer in federal funds to such bank account of the First Lien Agent in New York City as the First Lien Agent may designate in writing to the Trustee for such purpose. Interest shall be calculated to but excluding the Business Day on which such purchase and sale shall occur if the amounts so paid by the Trustee to the bank account designated by the First Lien Agent are received in such bank account prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time and interest shall be calculated to and including such Business Day if the amounts so paid by the Trustee to the bank -24- account designated by the First Lien Agent are received in such bank account later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time. SECTION 6.4. Limitation on Representations and Warranties. Such purchase shall be expressly made without representation or warranty of any kind by the First Lien Agent or any First Lien Claimholder as to the First Lien Obligations or otherwise and without recourse to the First Lien Agent or any First Lien Claimholder, except that each First Lien Claimholder shall represent and warrant (a) the amount of its portion of the First Lien Obligations being purchased, (b) that such First Lien Claimholder owns its portion of the First Lien Obligations free and clear of any Liens or encumbrances and (c) such First Lien Claimholder has the right to assign such First Lien Obligations and the assignment is duly authorized. SECTION 7. INSOLVENCY OR LIQUIDATION PROCEEDINGS. SECTION 7.1. Finance Issues. (a) If any Obligor shall become subject to any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and if as debtor(s)-in-possession move for approval of financing to be provided in good faith by any Secured Creditor (the "DIP Lender") under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or the use of cash collateral with the consent of the DIP Lender under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (each a "DIP Financing"), no other Secured Creditor shall object to any such financing or use of cash collateral on any grounds whatsoever, other than on the grounds of a failure to provide "adequate protection" for the Liens of such other Secured Creditor, so long as (i) the interest rate, fees, advance rates, lending sublimits and limits and other terms are commercially reasonable under the circumstances, (ii) except as provided in the immediately succeeding sentence, all such other Secured Creditors retain a Lien on the Collateral (including proceeds thereof arising after the commencement of such proceeding) with the same priority as existed prior to the commencement of the case under the Bankruptcy Code, and (iii) such financing or use of cash collateral is subject to the terms of this Agreement. To the extent the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations are subordinated or pari passu with such DIP Financing, the Trustee and each Second Lien Claimholder will subordinate its Liens in the Collateral to the Liens securing such DIP Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto). (b) If any Obligor shall be subject to any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and the First Lien Agent shall desire to permit Royalty Sub or the Pledgor to sell, lease or otherwise dispose of Collateral free and clear of the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations or other claims under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, then the Trustee, on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders, agrees that it will raise no objection to such sale, lease or other disposition of Collateral; provided that the net cash proceeds of such sale, lease or other disposition are applied in accordance with the terms of Section 3. SECTION 7.2. Relief from the Automatic Stay. Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, the Trustee, on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders, agrees that none of them shall seek relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Collateral (except, if the First Lien Agent, -25- on behalf of itself and the First Lien Claimholders, seeks relief from the automatic stay to exercise their rights against the Collateral under and in accordance with this Agreement, then the Trustee, on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders, may seek limited relief from the automatic stay to preserve its or their right, subject to Section 5, to receive proceeds of Collateral payable to them under and in accordance with this Agreement), without the prior written consent of the First Lien Agent. SECTION 7.3. Adequate Protection. The Trustee, on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders, agrees that neither it nor any Second Lien Claimholder shall contest (or support any other Person contesting) (i) any request by the First Lien Agent or the First Lien Claimholders for adequate protection or (ii) any objection by the First Lien Agent or the First Lien Claimholders to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on the First Lien Agent or the First Lien Claimholders claiming a lack of adequate protection, except as provided in Section 7.1. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions in this Section 7.3 but subject to the provisions of Section 7.1, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, (x) if the First Lien Claimholders (or any subset thereof) are granted adequate protection in the form of additional collateral securing the First Lien Obligations and any DIP Financing provided by the First Lien Claimholders, then the Trustee, on behalf of itself or any of the Second Lien Claimholders, shall also be granted a second priority Lien on such additional collateral as security for the Second Lien Obligations, and any Lien on such additional collateral securing the Second Lien Obligations shall be subordinated or otherwise second in priority to the Liens on such collateral securing the First Lien Obligations and any such DIP Financing provided by the First Lien Claimholders (and all obligations relating thereto) and to any other Liens granted to the First Lien Claimholders as adequate protection on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Second Lien Obligations are subordinated or otherwise second in priority to such First Lien Obligations under this Agreement; and (y) in the event the Trustee, on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders, seeks or requests adequate protection in respect of Second Lien Obligations and such adequate protection is granted in the form of additional collateral, then the Trustee, on behalf of itself or any of the Second Lien Claimholders, agrees that the First Lien Agent (or its agent) shall also be granted a senior Lien on such additional collateral as security for the First Lien Obligations and for any such DIP Financing provided by the First Lien Claimholders and that any Lien on such additional collateral securing the Second Lien Obligations shall be subordinated or otherwise second in priority to the Liens on such collateral securing the First Lien Obligations and any such DIP Financing provided by the First Lien Claimholders (and all obligations relating thereto) and to any other Liens granted to the First Lien Claimholders as adequate protection on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Second Lien Obligations are subordinated or otherwise second in priority to such First Lien Obligations under this Agreement. SECTION 7.4. Preference Issues. If the First Lien Agent or any First Lien Claimholder is required in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise to turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of any Obligor any amount (a "Recovery"), then the First Lien Obligations shall be reinstated to the extent of such Recovery and the First Lien Agent and the First Lien Claimholders shall be entitled to a reinstatement of First Lien Obligations with respect to all such recovered amounts. If this Agreement shall have been terminated prior to such Recovery, this Agreement shall be reinstated in full force and effect, and such prior termination shall not -26- diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the obligations of the parties hereto from such date of reinstatement. SECTION 7.5. No Waiver. The First Lien Agent and the First Lien Claimholders shall not be prohibited or in any way limited from objecting in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise (except to the extent it is expressly agreed herein that no such objection shall be made) to any action taken by the Trustee or any of the Second Lien Claimholders, including the seeking by the Trustee or any Second Lien Claimholder of adequate protection or the asserting by the Trustee or any Second Lien Claimholders of any of its rights and remedies under the Second Lien Documents. SECTION 7.6. Reorganization Securities. If, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, debt instruments or securities of the reorganized debtor secured by Liens upon any property of the reorganized debtor are distributed, pursuant to a court-authorized plan of reorganization or similar court-authorized dispositive restructuring plan, both on account of First Lien Obligations and on account of Second Lien Obligations, then (x) the Second Lien Claimholders will be allowed to retain such securities notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary and (y) to the extent the debt instruments or securities distributed on account of the First Lien Obligations and on account of the Second Lien Obligations are secured by Liens upon the same property, the provisions of this Agreement will survive the distribution of such debt instruments or securities pursuant to such plan and will apply with like effect to the Liens securing such debt instruments or securities, unless otherwise agreed by the First Lien Claimholders and the Second Lien Claimholders. SECTION 7.7. Voting for Plan of Reorganization. The First Lien Claimholders, on the one hand, and the Second Lien Claimholders, on the other hand, shall be entitled to vote as separate classes with respect to any plan of reorganization in connection with any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding; provided, however, that the Trustee, on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Claimholders, agrees that neither it nor any Second Lien Claimholder shall take any action or vote in any way which supports any plan of reorganization that is inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement. SECTION 7.8. Effectiveness in Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings. This Agreement, which the parties hereto expressly acknowledge is a "subordination agreement" under Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, shall, for the avoidance of any doubt, be effective before, during and after the commencement of an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. All references in this Agreement to an Obligor shall include such Obligor, as applicable, as a debtor-in-possession and any receiver or trustee for such Obligor, as applicable, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. SECTION 7.9. Post-Petition Interest. (a) Neither the Trustee nor any Second Lien Claimholder shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the First Lien Agent or any First Lien Claimholder for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of First Lien Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses to the extent of the value of the Lien of the First Lien Agent on behalf of the First Lien Claimholders on the Collateral without regard to the -27- existence of the Lien of the Trustee on behalf of the Second Lien Claimholders on the Collateral. (b) Neither the First Lien Agent nor any First Lien Claimholder shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the Trustee or any Second Lien Claimholder for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of Second Lien Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses to the extent of the value of the Lien of the Trustee on behalf of the Second Lien Claimholders on the Collateral, after taking into account the Lien of the First Lien Agent on behalf of the First Lien Claimholders on the Collateral. SECTION 8. RELIANCE; WAIVERS; ETC. SECTION 8.1. Reliance. Other than any reliance on the terms of this Agreement, the First Lien Agent, on behalf of itself and the First Lien Claimholders, acknowledges that it and such First Lien Claimholders have, independently and without reliance on the Trustee or any Second Lien Claimholders, and based on documents and information deemed by them appropriate, made their own credit analysis and decision to enter into each of the First Lien Documents and be bound by the terms of this Agreement and they will continue to make their own credit decision in taking or not taking any action under the First Lien Documents or this Agreement.

SECTION 8.3. No Waiver of Lien Priorities. (a) No right of the Collection Agent, the First Lien Claimholders, the First Lien Agent or any of them to enforce any provision of this Agreement or any First Lien Document shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of any Obligor or by any act or failure to act by any First Lien Claimholder or the First Lien Agent, or by any noncompliance by any Person with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Agreement, any of the First Lien Documents or any of the Second Lien Documents, regardless of any knowledge thereof which the First Lien Agent or the First Lien Claimholders, or any of them, may have or be otherwise charged with.

Any such inquiry which may be made by the Collection Agent shall not obligate it to make any further inquiry or to take any action.
