The Guarantor agrees that any and all claims of the Guarantor against the Borrower with respect to any “Intercompany Indebtedness” (as hereinafter defined), any endorser, obligor or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, or against any of its properties shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment, in full and in cash, of all Guaranteed Obligations; provided that, as long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such Guarantor may receive payments of principal and interest from the Borrower with respect to Intercompany Indebtedness. Notwithstanding any right of the Guarantor to ask, demand, sue for, take or receive any payment from the Borrower, all rights, liens and security interests of the Guarantor, whether now or hereafter arising and howsoever existing, in any assets of the Borrower shall be and are subordinated to the rights of the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations and the Security Agent in those assets. The Guarantor shall not have any right to possession of any such asset or to foreclose upon any such asset, whether by judicial action or otherwise, unless and until all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been fully paid and satisfied (in cash) and all Commitments shall have been terminated or expired. If all or any part of the assets of the Borrower, or the proceeds thereof, are subject to any distribution, division or application to the creditors of the Borrower, whether partial or complete, voluntary or involuntary, and whether by reason of liquidation, bankruptcy, arrangement, receivership, assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other action or proceeding, or if the business of the Borrower is dissolved or if substantially all of the assets of the Borrower are sold, then, and in any such event (such events being herein referred to as an “ Insolvency Event ”), any payment or distribution of any kind or character, either in cash, securities or other property, which shall be payable or deliverable upon or with respect to any indebtedness of the Borrower to the Guarantor (“ Intercompany Indebtedness ”) shall be paid or delivered directly to the Security Agent for application on any of the Guaranteed Obligations, due or to become due, until such Guaranteed Obligations shall have first been fully paid and satisfied (in cash). Should any payment, distribution, security or instrument or proceeds thereof be received by the Guarantor upon or with respect to the Intercompany Indebtedness after any Insolvency Event and prior to the satisfaction of all of the Guaranteed Obligations and the termination or expiration of the Commitments, the Guarantor shall receive and hold the same in trust, as trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations and shall promptly deliver the same to the Security Agent, for the benefit of the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations, in precisely the form received (except for the endorsement or assignment of the Guarantor where necessary), for application to any of the Guaranteed Obligations, due or not due, and, until so delivered, the same shall be held in trust by the Guarantor as the property of the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations. If the Guarantor fails to make any such endorsement or assignment to the Security Agent, the Security Agent or any of its officers or employees is irrevocably authorized to make the same. The Guarantor agrees that until the Guaranteed Obligations (other than the contingent indemnity obligations) have been paid in full (in cash) and satisfied and all such arrangements have been terminated, the Guarantor will not assign or transfer to any Person (other than the Security Agent) any claim any the Guarantor has or may have against the Borrower.
