NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants of the
parties hereinafter set forth, and for other good and valuable consideration,
the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby

“Amendment 2 Effective Date” means October 27, 2009.

“Deferred Amount” means the aggregate amount of deferred Monthly Amortization
Payments and deferred Monthly Interest Payments from the Amendment 2 Effective
Date through and including the Deferred Payment Termination Date. For the
avoidance of doubt, the Deferred Amount shall include all Monthly Amortization
Payments and Monthly Interest Payments in respect of Deferred Pension Payments
whether such Deferred Pension Payments exist as of the Amendment 2 Effective
Date or arise thereafter by way of the execution of additional Joinders.

“Deferred Payment Termination Date” means the earliest of the occurrence of

amendment, modification, supplementation or alteration of the Senior Credit
Facility after the Amendment 2 Effective Date which imposes any mandatory
prepayment, commitment reduction, additional interest or fee or any other
incremental payment to the Lenders (as defined in the Senior Credit Facility)

proportionate additional payment in respect of the Deferred Pension Obligations
at the time that the Obligors are required to make an additional payment to the
lenders under the Senior Credit Facility pursuant to the terms of such
amendment, modification, supplementation or alteration; provided, that, for the
avoidance of doubt, granting of consent by the lenders under the Senior Credit
Facility to permit an asset sale shall not by itself trigger this clause (v).

“Deferral Termination Event” shall have the meaning set forth in the Senior
Credit Facility as of the Amendment 2 Effective Date.

equal monthly installments payable on the 15th day of each calendar month
commencing January 15, 2010 (each, a “Monthly Amortization Payment”).

(b) Each of the Deferring Funds hereby agrees that if the Recapitalization
Transaction is consummated on or before December 16, 2009 (or such later date as

deferred and shall in no event be (or be deemed to be) forgiven, excused,
reduced or waived, and all such deferred Monthly Amortization Payments shall be
due and payable in full in cash in accordance with Section 2.05. No Deferring
Fund shall be under any obligation under this Agreement to defer the payment of

Section 2.01(b), including, for the avoidance of doubt, any amortization payment
owed on a date occurring on or after the Deferred Payment Termination Date.”

this Agreement (each, a “Monthly Interest Payment”); provided, that all interest
accruing and unpaid from each applicable Effective Date through the date such
Fund becomes a party to this Agreement with respect to such Deferred Pension
Payment shall be capitalized, compounded and added to the applicable Deferred
Pension Payment, in each case as described on Schedules 1.01(a), (c), (d),
