Castle & Co., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), pursuant to which SGF has agreed to purchase from certain accounts for which Mackay Shields holds contractual and investment authority $34,728,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 12.75% Senior Secured Notes due 2016 (the “Purchased Notes”).  Capitalized terms used without definition in this letter (this “Letter Agreement”) shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Purchase Agreement.

1.SGF shall, prior to the Expiration Date (as defined in the Offering Memorandum), validly tender and not withdraw the Purchased Notes (and deliver a corresponding consent in respect thereof) into the Exchange Offer in accordance with requirements described in the Offering Memorandum.  SGF further covenants that after tendering the Purchased Notes in the Exchange Offer, SGF shall not withdraw or revoke, or cause to be withdrawn or revoked, in whole or in part, its tender or consent of Purchased Notes prior to the expiration of the Exchange Offer and the issuance of new notes (the “New Notes”) by the Company in exchange for Purchased Notes pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Exchange Offer as provided in the Offering Memorandum.


2.In consideration of SGF’s covenant in Section 1 hereof, and subject to compliance therewith, (i) the Company agrees that it shall reimburse SGF for all reasonable and documented fees of one legal counsel to SGF incurred in connection with the negotiation of the Purchase Agreement, this Letter Agreement and other reasonably related matters, (ii) notwithstanding any term or condition of the Exchange Offer, the Company shall pay to SGF on the Settlement Date (as defined in the Offering Memorandum) the Consent Payment (as defined in the Offering Memorandum) that would have been payable with respect to the Purchased Notes if the Purchased Notes had been validly tendered and not withdrawn as of the Early Tender Date (as defined in the Offering Memorandum) and accepted for exchange by the Company pursuant to the Exchange Offer and (iii) on the Settlement Date (as defined in the Offering Memorandum) SGF will receive from the Company the same proportionate consideration with respect to its validly tendered (and not withdrawn) Purchased Notes that other investors who validly tendered (and did not withdraw) their Notes into the Exchange Offer by the Early Tender Date (as defined in the Offering Memorandum) received on the Early Settlement Date (as defined in the Offering Memorandum). Each global note representing New Notes issued on the Settlement Date shall have a CUSIP number that is the same as the CUSIP number on a global note representing New Notes issued on the Early Settlement Date.
