First Lien Agent is hereby authorized to make any such endorsements or assignments as agent for Second Lien Agent. This authorization is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable. The Second Lien Agent shall have no obligation to segregate, hold in trust, and transfer or pay over any proceeds of Collateral or payments if, with respect to any applicable payment, # other than with respect to Second Lien Agent Payments, the Second Lien Agent shall have received the compliance certificate(s) required to be delivered to Second Lien Agent pursuant to clause (b) of the definition ofPermitted Second Lien Payments” or pursuant to the definition ofSecond Lien Interest Payment Conditions”, as applicable, and such compliance certificate(s) certify as to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in such definitions, and # the Second Lien Agent did not otherwise have actual knowledge of the applicable payment being in contravention of this Agreement and had paid out, applied or retained the applicable payment amount in accordance with the Second Lien Documents prior to acquiring such knowledge.

First Lien Agent, on behalf of itself and each First Lien Secured Party, hereby acknowledges that Second Lien Agent, acting for and on behalf of the Second Lien Secured Parties, has been granted Liens upon all of the Collateral pursuant to the Second Lien Documents to secure the Second Lien Debt.

Transfer of Pledged Collateral.

In connection with any transfer described herein to Second Lien Agent, First Lien Agent agrees to take reasonable actions in its power (with all costs and expenses in connection therewith to be for the account of and to be paid by Grantors) as shall be reasonably requested by Second Lien Agent to permit Second Lien Agent to obtain, for the benefit of the Second Lien Secured Parties, a first priority Lien in the Pledged Collateral.
