reorganization as contemplated by the Exchange, the Plan and the Restructuring Documents; 
 (iv) object to the
Solicitation or any other solicitation of consents under the Exchange or the Plan; or

 7 








 
Credit Agreement if the Public Noteholders exercise any right they may have to accelerate under the Note Purchase Agreements or the Indenture after the date of this Agreement or if the Private
Noteholders terminate the forbearance agreements that were entered into with the Company on September 3, 2009. 
 6.

of its knowledge, with respect to clause (b) above, it has reviewed Exhibit B and concurs with each Consenting Creditor as to its accuracy. The Administrative Agent further represents that, to the best of its knowledge as of the date it
executes and delivers this Agreement, the aggregate amount of the Relevant Loans listed in Exhibit B equals 100% of the principal amount of the Claims outstanding under the Credit Agreement.

or by equitable principles relating to enforceability. 
 9. Specific Performance. Each Party hereto recognizes and
acknowledges that a breach by it of any covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement will cause the other Parties to sustain damages for which such Parties would not have an adequate remedy at law for money damages, and therefore each Party
hereto agrees that in the event of any such breach the other Parties shall be entitled to the remedy of specific performance of such covenants and agreements and injunctive and other equitable relief, including attorneys fees and costs, as a remedy
of any such breach, and each Party agrees to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of a bond in connection with such remedy in addition to any other remedy to which such Parties may be entitled, at law or in equity. 
 10. Remedies Cumulative. All rights, powers and remedies provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at
law or in equity shall be cumulative and not alternative, and the exercise of any right, power or remedy thereof by any Party shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any other such right, power or remedy by such Party. 

11. Effectiveness; Amendments. This Agreement shall not become effective unless and until it has been executed and delivered by
the Requisite Consenting Creditors; provided, that this Agreement may be terminated by the Company and the Majority Consenting Creditors at any time after November 20, 2009 if it shall not have been executed and delivered by the
Requisite Consenting Creditors; provided, however, that such date may be extended by the Administrative Agent by notice in writing to the Company to a date no later than November 30, 2009. This Agreement shall not become effective

 12. No Waiver. The failure of any Party hereto to
exercise any right, power or remedy provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity, or to insist upon compliance by any other Party hereto with its obligations hereunder, shall not constitute a waiver by
such Party of its right to exercise any such or other right, power or remedy or to demand such compliance. Without limiting the foregoing sentence in any way, if the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or otherwise set forth in the Plan are
not consummated as provided herein or if a Termination Event occurs, or if this agreement is otherwise terminated for any reason, the Parties hereto each fully reserve any and all of their respective rights, remedies and interests.

 The proposed transaction is a restructuring (the

 (i) obligations of the Company under the Credit Agreement dated as of May 16, 2007, as amended (the “Existing
Credit Agreement”), among the Company, the lenders and agents party thereto and Wachovia Bank, National Association as Administrative Agent (collectively, the “Credit Agreement Obligations”); 
 (ii) obligations of the Company under four note purchase agreements (collectively, the “Note Purchase
Agreements”) dated as of September 1, 2004, August 1, 2005, September 26, 2005 and February 9, 2006, respectively, as amended, and notes issued thereunder (collectively, the “Private Note
Obligations”); 







 (iii) obligations of the Company under the Indenture dated as of
April 26, 2007, as amended and supplemented (the “Public Note Indenture”), between the Company and Wilmington Trust Company, as successor to Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Trustee, and the notes issued thereunder
(collectively, the “Public Note Obligations”); 
 (iv) obligations of the Company and its
affiliates under interest rate hedging agreements (collectively, the “Interest Rate Hedging Agreements”) with lenders (or their affiliates) party to the Existing Credit Agreement (collectively, the “Hedging
Obligations”); and 
 (v) obligations of the Company under a letter of credit issued by it dated
November 5, 2008 (as amended from time to time, the “ACAS/ECAS Letter of Credit”) in favor of Royal Bank of Scotland plc (the “ACAS/ECAS LC Obligations”; the obligations described in clauses (iv) and
(v) together with the Amortizing Obligations described below, collectively, the “Secured Obligations”). 
 The Credit
Agreement Obligations will be restructured as set forth in this Term Sheet. The Private Note Obligations and Public Note Obligations will be exchanged for new notes (the “New Notes”) under a separate indenture (the “New
Indenture”) which will have terms substantially similar to those set forth herein (including, with respect to ratable payments, interest and fees, covenants, events of default and sharing in Collateral (as defined below)). Following the
completion of the Restructuring, the New Notes will be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Hedging Obligations and the ACAS/ECAS LC Obligations will be restructured in separate agreements on terms to be agreed upon which are
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. The Restructuring may be implemented pursuant to a pre-arranged or pre-packaged bankruptcy of the Company to the extent necessary to obtain requisite consents.

	 	- A basket of $118,017,160 may be used, at the Company’s option, to defer future Minimum Amortization Amounts (but not Penalty Amortization Amounts), of which no more than $59,008,580 may
be used for 2010 minimum amortization. If the Company defers a payment of any Minimum Amortization Amount in 2010, it shall pay a deferral fee of 1.00% on the aggregate amount of 

  
  

	3	 The Required Lenders under the New Indenture will be holders of New Notes holding in the aggregate more than 50% of the sum of all New Notes

	 	the Loans outstanding on December 31, 2010, after giving effect to amortization payments made on such date. Such deferrals shall in no event cause the aggregate cumulative amount of
principal amortization of the Loans, inclusive of the Closing Payment, to be less than $973,641,570 on June 30, 2013.5 

 - Failure to pay the Minimum Amortization Amount when due shall constitute an event of default. 
 - Payment of the Minimum Amortization Amount but failure to pay any Penalty Amortization Amount as scheduled will result in a 0.50% per annum increase in the interest rate on the Loans upon each such
occurrence (i.e., cumulative increases at each scheduled deadline). Such increased rate shall continue for any failure to pay a Penalty Amortization Amount until such Penalty Amortization Amount is paid, together with any Penalty Amortization Amount
due as described below. 
 - All payments in excess of the Minimum Amortization Amount shall be applied to subsequent scheduled
installments of the Minimum Amortization Amount in direct order of maturity. Payments of the Loans shall be credited towards the Penalty Amortization Amount for the applicable six-month period in which such payments are made until the applicable
Penalty Amortization Amount is paid in full and thereafter shall be applied to other periods designated by the Company. 
 Mandatory 

	 Prepayments: 
	The Loans shall be prepaid as follows (collectively, the “Mandatory Prepayments”): 

 (i) The CRA Ratable Share of 100% of the net cash proceeds of any debt issued by the Company or any domestic subsidiary (subject to customary limited exceptions to be agreed); 

	 	(ii) The CRA Ratable Share of 50% of the net cash proceeds of any equity (including public, private or PIPES) issued after the second anniversary of the Closing Date; 


	 	(iii) The CRA Ratable Share of the Prepayment Percentage of annual Excess Cash Flow (to be defined but to include any unused tax reserves) for each fiscal year of the Company (commencing with
the 2010 fiscal year); and 


	 	(iv) The CRA Ratable Share of the Prepayment Percentage of any Realized Proceeds. 

  

	 	“Prepayment Percentage” is calculated based on outstanding Loans as follows: 

  

					
	 Outstanding Loans
 ($ thousands)
	  	    Prepayment Percentage    	 	 
	 > $826,120  
	  	75%	 	
	 £$826,120 and 3   $560,582  
	  	50%	 	
	 < $560,582  
	  	25%	 	


 “Realized Proceeds” means the net cash proceeds (i.e., net of taxes and
other customary transactions costs) of any type from the sale of, collection of or payment with respect to, or otherwise of or from portfolio company investments 
  

	5	 Exhibit B sets forth aggregate Minimum Amortization and Penalty Amortization Amounts for the Amortizing Obligations. 


  

 4 









	 	(including debt, equity and structured product assets). For the avoidance of doubt, (i) amounts funded in respect of staple financings shall not reduce the calculation of Realized Proceeds
except to the extent agreed in the definitive documentation and (ii) payments received under revolving facilities in which the borrower has the right to reborrow shall not constitute Realized Proceeds. 

 “CRA Ratable Share” at any time means the percentage equivalent of (i) the Loans divided by (ii) the aggregate
principal amount of the Amortizing Obligations. 
 Ratable Payments/ 

	 Prepayments: 
	All scheduled, voluntary and mandatory payments/redemptions of principal of the Amortizing Obligations will be made ratably (except as otherwise described below under “Negative
Covenants”) and applied in order of scheduled maturity/Amortization. 

  

	 Final Maturity Date: 
	December 31, 2013 (the “Final Maturity Date”). 

  

	 Repayments:  
	Any repayment on the Loans shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of $100,000 or an integral multiple of $25,000 in excess thereof. The Company shall have the right to repay a portion or all of
the Loans outstanding at any time, without penalty (with the exception of any breakage costs incurred by a Lender), ratably with prepayments of New Notes in accordance with the CRA Ratable Share of the Loans, and such repayments shall be applied to
the Loans in order of scheduled maturity/Amortization. 

 The Company may request conversion of the interest rate
option applicable to any tranche of the Loans by written notice to the Agent not later than 11:00 A.M. (i) on the same Business Day of the requested conversion in the case of Alternate Base Rate Loans or (ii) on the second Business Day
prior to the date of the requested borrowing in the case of LIBOR Rate Loans. 
 If interest on any Loan is subject to
withholding tax imposed by any jurisdiction the Company shall be required to make “gross-up” payments on an after-tax basis for the full amount of such tax. 
  

	 Collateral:  
	The Facility shall be, subject to mutually agreed upon exceptions, secured by a blanket lien on all existing and hereafter acquired tangible and intangible assets of the Company and the other
Credit Parties (the “Collateral”) including, but not limited to: (i) a perfected first-priority pledge of all capital stock and other equity interests held by the Company and the other Credit Parties (limited to 65% of the
voting stock of any first tier foreign subsidiaries), subject to shareholder agreement restrictions which prohibit pledges; provided that any shareholder or similar agreements entered into after the Closing Date with respect to a new
controlled investment shall permit the pledge of the applicable capital stock, and (ii) a perfected first-priority interest in all cash and cash equivalents of the Company and the other Credit Parties (subject to control agreements).


 The Collateral will secure the Secured Obligations ratably and will be subject to intercreditor arrangements
regarding enforcement and other matters to be agreed upon.
