	$7,000,000
	 	October __, 2010
	 
	 	Hamilton, Bermuda

     FOR VALUE RECEIVED, ENSTAR GROUP LIMITED, a Bermuda exempted company, (“Maker”), hereby
unconditionally promises to pay to the order of HOVE INVESTMENTS HOLDING LIMITED, a company formed
under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (“Payee”), in installments as hereinafter provided,
the principal amount of SEVEN MILLION DOLLARS ($7,000,000), together with interest on the
outstanding principal balance hereof from time to time outstanding from the date hereof and until
this Note is paid in full, whether before or after maturity, at an annual rate of three and
one-half percent (3.5%), and, to the extent lawful, to pay interest at the same rate on any overdue
installment of interest.

     Interest shall be calculated on the basis of actual days elapsed and a year of 360 days and
shall be paid in arrears on each Payment Date (as defined below).

     The principal amount hereof shall be repaid on each date specified below, or if the date
specified below is not a business day, on the first business day thereafter (each, a “Payment
Date”), in each case in the amount specified below, such that the Note will be repaid in full on
the last Payment Date:

	 	 	 	 	 
	Payment Date	 	Amount of Repayment
	 
	 	 	 	 
	December 31, 2010
	 	$	2,333,333	 
	December 1, 2011
	 	$	2,333,333	 
	December 1, 2012
	 	$	2,333,334	 

     Payments of principal and interest shall be made in lawful money of the United States of
America by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated in writing to
Maker by Payee or at such other place as the holder of this Note shall designate to Maker in
writing.

     Maker may prepay this Note in whole or in part at any time without premium or penalty. Any
partial prepayment shall be applied to the unpaid installments of principal in the inverse order of
their maturity.

     The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an “Event of Default” hereunder: (a)
default in any payment by Maker hereunder when due; (b) sale of all or substantially all of Maker’s
assets, or any formal action in contemplation of the dissolution, liquidation or termination of
Maker’s existence; or (c) institution of any proceedings by or against Maker under any law relating

     Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, all amounts payable hereunder shall, at the
holder’s option but without notice or demand, become immediately due and payable, and the holder
shall thereupon have all rights and remedies provided hereunder or otherwise available at law or in
equity.

     No failure or delay on the part of the holder to insist on strict performance of Maker’s
obligations hereunder or to exercise any remedy shall constitute a waiver of the holder’s rights in
that or any other instance. No waiver of any of the holder’s rights shall be effective unless in
writing, and any waiver of any default or any instance of non-compliance shall be limited to its
express terms and shall not extend to any other default or instance of non-compliance.

     Maker and each endorser hereby waives presentment, notice of nonpayment or dishonor, protest,
notice of protest and all other notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance,
default or enforcement of payment of this Note, and hereby waives all notice or right of approval
of any extensions, renewals, modifications or forbearances which may be allowed.

     Maker shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by the
holder relating to the enforcement of this Note.

     Any provision hereof found to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever
shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of the remainder hereof.

     If the effective interest rate on this Note would otherwise violate any applicable usury law,
then the interest rate shall be reduced to the maximum permissible rate and any payment received by
the holder in excess of the maximum permissible rate shall be treated as a prepayment of the
principal of this Note.

     This Note shall be binding upon Maker’s successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit
of each holder of this Note and such holder’s heirs, personal representatives, successors,
endorsees and assigns.

     This Note shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of Bermuda (excluding
the laws applicable to conflicts or choice of law). If any of the terms of this Note shall be
declared invalid by any court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity shall not affect any of
the other terms hereof or such other instrument.

value $1.00 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”). In recognition of the benefit that such a
repurchase will confer upon the undersigned, as well as Hove, which is affiliated with the
undersigned, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which
are hereby acknowledged, the undersigned agrees with the Company that, during a period of two years
from the date of the Repurchase Agreement (the “Lock-up Period”), the undersigned will not, without
the prior written consent of the Company, (i) directly or indirectly, offer, sell, contract to
sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any
option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise dispose of or transfer any of the Company’s
Ordinary Shares or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Ordinary
Shares, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by the undersigned or with respect to which the
undersigned has or hereafter acquires the power of disposition (collectively, the “Lock-Up
Securities”) or (ii) enter into any swap or any other agreement or any transaction that transfers,
in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, the economic consequence of ownership of the Lock-Up
Securities, whether any such swap or other transaction is to be settled by delivery of Ordinary
Shares or other securities, in cash or otherwise.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to the conditions below, the undersigned may
transfer the Lock-Up Securities without the prior written consent of the Company:

	 	(i)	 	as a bona fide gift or gifts; or
	 
	 	(ii)	 	to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the
undersigned or the immediate family of the undersigned (for purposes of this
lock-up agreement, “immediate family” shall mean any relationship by blood,
marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin);

provided, in each case, that: (A) the Company receives a signed lock-up agreement for the balance

(B) any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value.

     In addition, the undersigned agrees that, without the Company’s prior written consent, the
undersigned will not, during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending at the end of the
Lock-up Period, make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to, the registration of any

Securities.

     The undersigned understands and acknowledges that the terms of this lock-up agreement apply to
Lock-Up Securities that are subject to any pledge arrangement or agreement, and accordingly, any
sale or transfer of any pledged Lock-up Securities in violation of the provisions herein would
constitute a breach of this lock-up agreement for which the Company would be entitled to seek
damages.

     The undersigned also agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the
Company’s transfer agent and registrar against the transfer of the Lock-Up Securities except in
compliance with the foregoing restrictions.

and Section 7.8 (other than Sections 7.8(f)-(h), (n), (p),
(s), (t) and (u)) and (3) proceeds that are reinvested within three hundred
sixty-five (365) days following receipt thereof so long as (A) no Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing and (B) such proceeds are reinvested in like assets of Borrower (e.g., Investments
for Investments or Permitted Acquisitions, current assets for current assets, fixed assets for
fixed assets); provided that if a binding commitment to reinvest is entered into within
such period, the reinvestment period shall be extended an additional one hundred eighty (180) days
from the end of such 365 day period; provided, further, that Borrower shall notify
Agent of its intent to reinvest at the time such proceeds are received (provided a failure to

42

 

so notify shall not affect Borrower’s reinvestment rights hereunder) and when such
reinvestment occurs.

               (ii) Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, if any Credit Party issues any debt securities
other than the Indebtedness permitted by Section 7.3, no later than the Business Day
following the date of receipt of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof, such issuing Credit Party shall
prepay the Term Loans in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of such Net Cash Proceeds.
Any such prepayment shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.3(c) and the
Intercreditor Agreement.

               (iii) Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, if any Credit Party issues Non-Qualifying
Preferred Stock after the Closing Date, no later than the Business Day following the date of
receipt of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof, such Credit Party shall prepay the Term Loans in an
amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of such Net Cash Proceeds. Any such prepayment shall be
applied in accordance with Section 2.3(c) and the Intercreditor Agreement.

               (iv) Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement and the Revolving Loan Credit Agreement,
commencing immediately after the Fiscal Year ending on December 31, 2011 and until the Commitment
Termination Date, on or before the earlier of (x) the date on which annual audited Financial
Statements for the immediately preceding Fiscal Year are required to be delivered pursuant to
Section 5.1 and (y) the date on which such annual Financial Statements are actually
delivered, Borrower shall prepay the Term Loans in an amount equal to (A) fifty percent (50%) of
Excess Cash Flow for the immediately preceding Fiscal Year, minus (B) the aggregate amount
of any voluntary prepayments of the Term Loans and Revolver Loan Obligations (so long as such
repayment results in a corresponding commitment reduction) made during the applicable Fiscal Year
for such Excess Cash Flow calculation; provided, however, if the Total Net Leverage
Ratio as at the end of the relevant Fiscal Year is less than or equal to 2.00 to 1.00 at such time,
then the percentage of Excess Cash Flow required to prepay the Term Loans shall be reduced to
twenty-five percent (25%) of Excess Cash Flow for the immediately preceding Fiscal Year;
provided, further; if the Total Net Leverage Ratio as at the end of the relevant
Fiscal Year is less than or equal to 1.00 to 1.00 at such time, then the amount of Excess Cash Flow
required to prepay the Term Loans shall be reduced to zero for the immediately preceding Fiscal
Year. Any prepayments from Excess Cash Flow paid pursuant to this clause (iv) shall be
allocated to Borrower’s Obligations and shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.3(c)
and the Intercreditor Agreement. Each such prepayment shall be accompanied by a certificate signed
by a Financial Officer of Borrower certifying the manner in which Excess Cash Flow and the
resulting prepayment were calculated, which certificate shall be in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to Agent.

          (c) Application of Certain Mandatory Prepayments. Subject to the Intercreditor
Agreement, to the extent not required to be applied to prepay Revolver Loan Obligations under the
Revolving Loan Credit Agreement, any prepayments made by Borrower pursuant to Sections
2.3(b)(i), (ii), (iii), or (iv) above shall be applied to the prepayment of the Term
Loans until paid in full. The application of any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.3(b)
shall be made, first, to Base Rate Loans and, second, to LIBOR Rate Loans. Each
prepayment of Term Loans under Section 2.3(b) shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid
interest to the date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid. Any prepayments of the Term Loans
made by

43

 

or on behalf of Borrower pursuant to Section 2.3(b) shall be applied to reduce the
remaining Term Loan Installments on a pro rata basis.

          (d) With respect to the amount of any mandatory prepayment described in Section 2.3(b)
(the “Prepayment Amount”), other than in connection with a Refinancing (as defined in the
Intercreditor Agreement), Borrower will, in lieu of applying such amount to the prepayment of Term
Loans as provided in paragraph (c) above, on the date specified in Section 2.3 for such
prepayment, give Agent telephonic notice (promptly confirmed in writing) requesting that Agent
prepare and provide to each Lender a notice (each, a “Prepayment Option Notice”) as
described below. As promptly as practicable after receiving such notice from Borrower, Agent will
send to each Lender a Prepayment Option Notice, which shall be substantially in the form of
Exhibit 2.3(b), and shall include an offer by Borrower to prepay on the date (each a
“Mandatory Prepayment Date”) that is 10 Business Days after the date of the Prepayment
Option Notice, the Term Loans of such Lender by an amount equal to the portion of the Prepayment
Amount indicated in such Lender’s Prepayment Option Notice as being applicable to such Lender’s
Term Loans. Within six (6) Business Days of receipt of a Prepayment Option Notice Lenders shall
notify Agent and Borrower of the amount of such Lender’s prepayment accepted; provided that
if any Lender fails to respond within such period, such Lender shall be deemed to have declined
such prepayment in its entirety. On the Mandatory Prepayment Date, the Prepayment Amount shall be
(i) paid to the relevant Lenders in an aggregate amount necessary to prepay that portion of the
outstanding Term Loans in respect of which such Lenders have accepted prepayment as described
above, (ii) to the extent in excess of the amounts required to be applied pursuant to the preceding
clause (i), reoffered to each other Lender on the same terms as set forth in the Prepayment
Option Notice and if accepted by such Lender within three (3) Business Days of receipt of such
reoffer, paid to such Lender in an aggregate amount necessary to prepay that portion of the
outstanding Term Loans in respect of which such Lender has accepted prepayment and (iii) to the
extent in excess of the amounts required to be applied pursuant to the preceding clauses
(i) and (ii), retained by Borrower.

          (e) No Implied Consent. Nothing in this Section 2.3 shall be construed to
constitute Agent’s or any Lender’s consent to any transaction that is not permitted by other
provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

          (f) Limitations on Payments. All prepayments referred to in Section 2.3(b)(i)
above are subject to permissibility under (i) applicable local law (e.g., financial assistance,
corporate benefit, restrictions on upstreaming of cash intra-group and the fiduciary and statutory
duties of the directors of the relevant Subsidiaries) and (ii) material constituent document
restrictions existing as of the Closing Date (including as a result of minority ownership). There
will be no requirement to make any prepayment under Section 2.3(b)(i) if Borrower and its
Subsidiaries or any of their Affiliates provide reasonable evidence to Agent and Lenders that it
would incur a material tax liability, including a deemed dividend pursuant to Section 956 of the
IRC; provided, further, that utilization of the net operating losses of Borrower
and its Subsidiaries shall be excluded from Borrower’s determination of whether such prepayment
would result in material adverse tax liabilities to Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. The
non-application of any prepayment amounts as a consequence of the foregoing provisions shall not,
for the avoidance of doubt, constitute an Event of Default under Section 9.1(a), and such
amounts shall be available for working capital purposes of Borrower and its Subsidiaries, subject

44

 

to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, so long as such amounts are not required to be
prepaid in accordance with the following provisions. Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to reduce or eliminate the foregoing restrictions and/or minimize
any such costs of prepayment and/or use the other cash resources of Borrower and its Subsidiaries
(subject to the considerations above) to make the relevant payment; provided,
however, such efforts shall not include the application or use of net operating losses of
Borrower and its Subsidiaries. If at any time within one year of a required prepayment date that
is excused under this Section 2.3(f), such restrictions are removed, any relevant proceeds
will be applied in prepayment of the Term Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any prepayments
required after application of the above provision shall be net of any costs, expenses or taxes
incurred by Borrower and its Subsidiaries or any of its Affiliates arising solely as a result of
compliance with the preceding sentence, and Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall be permitted to
make, directly or indirectly, a dividend or distribution to its Affiliates in an amount sufficient
to cover such tax liability, costs or expenses.

     2.4 Use of Proceeds. Borrower shall utilize the proceeds of the Term Loans for the
payment of fees, costs and expenses related to the Chapter 11 Cases and the Related Transactions,
repayment of certain Indebtedness (including, without limitation, the Prior Lender Obligations) and
the financing of Borrower’s general corporate purposes. Schedule (2.4) contains a
description of Borrower’s sources and uses of funds as of the Closing Date, including Term Loans to
be made on that date, and a funds flow memorandum detailing how funds from each source are to be
transferred to particular uses.

     2.5 Interest and Applicable Margins.

          (a) Borrower shall pay interest to Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders in accordance
with the Term Loans being made by each Lender, in arrears on each applicable Interest Payment Date,
at the rate of the Base Rate plus the Applicable Term Loan Base Margin per annum or, at the
election of Borrower, the applicable LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Term Loan LIBOR Margin
per annum.

     The Applicable Term Loan Base Margin and the Applicable Term Loan LIBOR Margin shall be as
follows:

	 	 	 	 	 

	Applicable Term Loan Base Margin
	 	 	5.25	%
	 
	 	 	 	 
	Applicable Term Loan LIBOR Margin
	 	 	6.25	%

          (b) If any payment on the Term Loans becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business
Day, the maturity thereof will be extended to the next succeeding Business Day (except as set forth
in the definition of LIBOR Period) and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon
shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.

          (c) All computations of Fees calculated on a per annum basis and interest shall be made by
Agent on the basis of a 360-day year, in each case for the actual number of days occurring in the
period for which such interest and Fees are payable, except that with respect to Base Rate Loans
based on the prime or base commercial lending rate the interest

45

 

thereon shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year for
the actual days elapsed. The Base Rate is a floating rate determined for each day. Each
determination by Agent of an interest rate and Fees hereunder shall be presumptive evidence of the
correctness of such rates and Fees.

          (d) So long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under Sections 9.1
(a), (k), or (l) or any Event of Default under Section 9.1(b) solely
with respect to Section 7.10, the interest rates applicable to the Term Loans shall
automatically be increased by two percentage points (2.00%) per annum above the rates of interest
otherwise applicable hereunder unless Agent and Requisite Lenders elect to waive such increase or
impose a smaller increase (the “Default Rate”), and all outstanding Obligations shall bear
interest at the Default Rate applicable to such Obligations. Interest at the Default Rate shall
accrue from the initial date of such Event of Default and for so long as such Event of Default is
continuing and shall be payable upon demand.

          (e) Subject to the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2, Borrower shall have
the option to (i) convert at any time all or any part of outstanding Term Loans from Base Rate
Loans to LIBOR Loans, (ii) convert any LIBOR Loan to a Base Rate Loan and subject to payment of
LIBOR breakage costs in accordance with Section 2.11(b) if such conversion is made prior to
the expiration of the LIBOR Period applicable thereto, or (iii) continue all or any portion of the
Term Loans as a LIBOR Loan upon the expiration of the applicable LIBOR Period and the succeeding
LIBOR Period of that continued Loan shall commence on the first day after the last day of the LIBOR
Period of the Loan to be continued; provided, however, that no Term Loan shall be
converted to, or continued at the end of the LIBOR Period applicable thereto as a LIBOR Loan for a
LIBOR Period of longer than one (1) month if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
Any Term Loans having the same proposed LIBOR Period to be made or continued as, or converted into,
a LIBOR Loan must be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in
excess of such amount. Any such election must be made by 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the third
Business Day prior to (1) the date of any proposed Advance which is to bear interest at the LIBOR
Rate, (2) the end of each LIBOR Period with respect to any LIBOR Loans to be continued as such, or
(3) the date on which Borrower wishes to convert any Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Loan for a LIBOR
Period designated by Borrower in such election. If no election is received with respect to a LIBOR
Loan by 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the third Business Day prior to the end of the LIBOR Period
with respect thereto (or if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or if the additional
conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 shall not have been satisfied), that LIBOR
Loan shall be converted to a LIBOR Loan with a LIBOR Period of one (1) month at the end of its
LIBOR Period. Borrower must make such election by notice to Agent in writing, by telecopy or
overnight courier. In the case of any conversion or continuation, such election must be made
pursuant to a written notice (a “Notice of Conversion/Continuation”) in the form of
Exhibit 2.5(e).

          (f) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of Borrower hereunder
shall be subject to the limitation that payments of interest shall not be required, for any period
for which interest is computed hereunder, to the extent (but only to the extent) that contracting
for or receiving such payment by the respective Lender would be contrary to the provisions of any
law applicable to such Lender limiting the highest rate of

46

 

interest which may be lawfully contracted for, charged or received by such Lender, and in such
event Borrower shall pay such Lender interest at the highest rate permitted by applicable law (the
“Maximum Lawful Rate”); provided, however, that if at any time thereafter
the rate of interest payable hereunder is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, Borrower shall
continue to pay interest hereunder at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest
received by Agent, on behalf of Lenders, is equal to the total interest that would have been
received had the interest rate payable hereunder been (but for the operation of this paragraph) the
interest rate payable since the Closing Date as otherwise provided in this Agreement. Thereafter,
interest hereunder shall be paid at the rate(s) of interest and in the manner provided in
Sections 2.5(a) through (e), unless and until the rate of interest again exceeds
the Maximum Lawful Rate, and at that time this paragraph shall again apply. In no event shall the
total interest received by any Lender pursuant to the terms hereof exceed the amount that such
Lender could lawfully have received had the interest due hereunder been calculated for the full
term hereof at the Maximum Lawful Rate. If the Maximum Lawful Rate is calculated pursuant to this
paragraph, such interest shall be calculated at a daily rate equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate
divided by the number of days in the year in which such calculation is made. If, notwithstanding
the provisions of this Section 2.5(f), a court of competent jurisdiction shall finally
determine that a Lender has received interest hereunder in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate, Agent
shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, promptly apply such excess in the order specified
in Section 2.9 and thereafter shall refund any excess to Borrower or as a court of
competent jurisdiction may otherwise order.

     2.6 Cash Management. Upon the delivery of any deposit account control agreement (or
other similar cash management agreement) pursuant to the Revolving Loan Credit Agreement, Borrower
shall deliver to Agent a corresponding deposit account control agreement, covering the same
accounts as the deposit account control agreement delivered pursuant to the Revolving Loan Credit
Agreement, sufficient to establish in favor of Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties (as
defined in the Security Agreement), a Lien having the priority set forth in the Intercreditor
Agreement in such accounts and otherwise in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent.

     2.7 Fees. Borrower shall pay to MSSF, individually, the Fees specified in the Fee
Letter at the times specified for payment therein.

     2.8 Receipt of Payments. Borrower shall make each payment under this Agreement not
later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the day when due in immediately available funds in Dollars
to the Collection Account. For purposes of computing interest and Fees, all payments shall be
deemed received on the Business Day on which immediately available funds are received in the
Collection Account prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York time). Payments received after 2:00 p.m. (New York
time) on any Business Day or on a day that is not a Business Day shall be deemed to have been
received on the following Business Day. Unless stated otherwise, all calculations, comparisons,
measurements or determinations under this Agreement shall be made in Dollars. If Agent receives
any payment from or on behalf of any Credit Party in a currency other than the currency in which
such Obligation is denominated, Agent may convert the payment (including the monetary proceeds of
realization upon any Collateral and any funds then held in a cash collateral account) into the
currency of the relevant Obligation at the exchange rate that Agent would be prepared to sell the
currency in which the relevant Obligation is

47

 

denominated against the currency received on the Business Day immediately preceding the date
of actual payment. The Obligations shall be satisfied only to the extent of the amount actually
received by Agent upon such conversion.

     2.9 Application and Allocation of Payments. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor
Agreement and to the extent not required to be used to prepay Revolver Loan Obligations under the
Revolving Loan Credit Agreement, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (i)
payments of regularly scheduled payments then due shall be applied to those scheduled payments and
(ii) all mandatory prepayments shall be applied as set forth in Sections 2.3(c). All
payments and prepayments applied to the Term Loans shall be applied ratably to the portion thereof
held by each Lender as determined by its Pro Rata Share. As to any other mandatory payment, and as
to all payments made when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or following the
Commitment Termination Date, Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct the application
of any and all payments received from or on behalf of Borrower. All voluntary prepayments shall be
applied as directed by Borrower. In all circumstances, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement,
after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, all payments and proceeds of Collateral shall be
applied to amounts then due and payable in the following order: (i) to Fees and Agent’s expenses
reimbursable hereunder; (ii) to interest on the Term Loans and the Secured Hedge Obligations,
ratably in proportion to the interest accrued as to each Loan and Secured Hedge Obligation;
(iii) to the outstanding Term Loans and the Secured Hedge Obligations, ratably in proportion to the
principal balance of each Loan and each Secured Hedge Obligation; and (iv) to all other
Obligations, including expenses of Lenders to the extent reimbursable under Section 12.3.

     2.10 Loan Account and Accounting. Agent shall maintain a loan account (the “Loan
Account”) on its books and records: the Term Loans, all payments made by Borrower, and all
other debits and credits as provided in this Agreement with respect to the Term Loans or any other
Obligations. All entries in the Loan Account shall be made in accordance with Agent’s customary
accounting practices as in effect from time to time. The balance in the Loan Account, as recorded
on Agent’s most recent printout or other written statement, shall, absent manifest error, be
presumptive evidence of the amounts due and owing to Agent and Lenders by Borrower;
provided that any failure to so record or any error in so recording shall not limit or
otherwise affect Borrower’s duty to pay the Obligations. Agent shall render to Borrower a monthly
accounting of transactions with respect to the Term Loans setting forth the balance of the Loan
Account as to Borrower for the immediately preceding month. Unless Borrower notifies Agent in
writing of any objection to any such accounting (specifically describing the basis for such
objection), within sixty (60) days after the date thereof, each and every such accounting shall be
deemed presumptive evidence of all matters reflected therein. Only those items expressly objected
to in such notice shall be deemed to be disputed by Borrower. Notwithstanding any provision herein
contained to the contrary, any Lender may elect (which election may be revoked) to dispense with
the issuance of Term Notes to that Lender and may rely on the Loan Account as evidence of the
amount of Obligations from time to time owing to it.

48

 

     2.11 Indemnity.

          (a) Each Credit Party that is a signatory hereto shall jointly and severally indemnify and
hold harmless each of Agent, Collateral Agent, Lenders and their respective Affiliates, and each
such Person’s respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys, agents and representatives
(each, an “Indemnified Person”), from and against any and all suits, actions, proceedings,
claims, damages, actual losses, liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable
attorneys’ fees and disbursements and other reasonable documented out-of-pocket costs of
investigation or defense, including those incurred upon any appeal) that may be instituted or
asserted against or incurred by any such Indemnified Person as the result of credit having been
extended, suspended or terminated under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the
administration of such credit, and in connection with or arising out of the transactions
contemplated hereunder and thereunder and any actions or failures to act in connection therewith,
including any and all Environmental Liabilities and legal costs and expenses arising out of or
incurred in connection with disputes between or among any parties to any of the Loan Documents
(collectively, “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided that no such Credit Party shall
be liable for any indemnification to an Indemnified Person to the extent that any such suit,
action, proceeding, claim, damage, actual loss, liability or expense results from that Indemnified
Person’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment; provided, further, that no
Indemnified Person will be indemnified for any such cost, expense or liability to the extent of any
dispute solely among Indemnified Persons other than claims against Agent or Collateral Agent, in
such capacity in connection with fulfilling any such roles. In the absence of an actual conflict
of interest, or in the written opinion of counsel a potential conflict of interest, Borrower and
its Subsidiaries will not be responsible for the fees and expenses of more than one legal counsel
for all Indemnified Persons and appropriate local legal counsel; provided, that in the case
of an actual conflict of interest, or the written opinion of counsel that a potential conflict of
interest exists, Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall be responsible for one additional counsel in
each applicable jurisdiction for the affected Indemnified Parties, taken as a whole. No party
hereto shall be responsible or liable to any other Person party to any Loan Document, any
successor, assignee or third party beneficiary of such person or any other person asserting claims
derivatively through such Party, for indirect, punitive, exemplary or consequential damages which
may be alleged as a result of credit having been extended, suspended or terminated under any Loan
Document or as a result of any other transaction contemplated hereunder or thereunder.

          (b) To induce Lenders to provide the LIBOR Rate option on the terms provided herein, if
(i) any LIBOR Loans are repaid in whole or in part prior to the last day of any applicable LIBOR
Period (whether that repayment is made pursuant to any provision of this Agreement or any other
Loan Document or occurs as a result of acceleration, by operation of law or otherwise); (ii)
Borrower shall default in payment when due of the principal amount of or interest on any LIBOR
Loan; (iii) Borrower shall refuse to accept any borrowing of, or shall request a termination of,
any borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of, LIBOR Loans after Borrower has given notice
requesting the same in accordance herewith; (iv) Borrower shall fail to make any prepayment of a
LIBOR Loan after Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance herewith; or (v) an assignment
of LIBOR Loans is mandated pursuant to Sections 2.14(d) or 12.2(d), then Borrower
shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless each Lender from and against all actual
losses, costs and reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses resulting from or arising from any
of the foregoing. Such indemnification shall include any actual and documented out-of-pocket loss
or expense (other than loss of anticipated profits),

49

 

if any, arising from the reemployment of funds obtained by it or from fees payable to
terminate deposits from which such funds were obtained. For the purpose of calculating amounts
payable to a Lender under this subsection, each Lender shall be deemed to have actually funded its
relevant LIBOR Loan through the purchase of a deposit bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate in an
amount equal to the amount of that LIBOR Loan and having a maturity comparable to the relevant
LIBOR Period; provided that each Lender may fund each of its LIBOR Loans in any manner it
sees fit, and the foregoing assumption shall be utilized only for the calculation of amounts
payable under this subsection. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and
the payment of the Obligations and all other amounts payable hereunder. As promptly as practicable
under the circumstances, each Lender shall provide Borrower with its written and detailed
calculation of all amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.11(b), and such calculation
shall be binding on the parties hereto unless Borrower shall object in writing within ten (10)
Business Days of receipt thereof, specifying the basis for such objection in detail.

     2.12 Access. Each Credit Party that is a party hereto shall, during normal business
hours, from time to time upon reasonable notice as frequently as Agent reasonably determines to be
appropriate: (a) provide Agent, Collateral Agent, Lenders (coordinated through Agent) and any of
their representatives and designees access to its properties, facilities, advisors, officers and
employees of each Credit Party and to the Collateral, (b) permit Agent, Collateral Agent, Lenders
and any of their officers, employees and agents, to inspect, audit and make extracts from any
Credit Party’s books and records, and (c) permit Agent, Collateral Agent, Lenders and their
representatives and designees, to inspect, review and evaluate the Collateral of any Credit Party;
provided, that to the extent that no Event of Default has occurred, Borrower shall only be
responsible for the costs of one such visit per Fiscal Year. Furthermore, so long as any Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing under Sections 9.1(k) or (l) or at any time
after all or any portion of the Obligations have been declared due and payable pursuant to
Section 9.2(b), Borrower shall provide reasonable assistance to Agent to obtain access,
which access shall be coordinated in scope and substance in consultation with Borrower, to their
suppliers and customers. Each Credit Party (i) shall be available to discuss the business,
operations, properties and financial and other condition of the Group Members with officers and
employees of the Group Members (so long as senior management of Borrower is notified of any such
discussion and is permitted to be present) and (ii) agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts
to assist Agent in obtaining reasonable access, which access shall be coordinated in scope and
substance in consultation with Borrower, to its independent certified public accountants and
financial advisors.

     2.13 Taxes.

          (a) All payments by each Credit Party hereunder, under the Term Notes or under any other Loan
Document will be made without setoff, counterclaim or defense. Any and all payments by each Credit
Party hereunder (including any payments made pursuant to Section 13), under the Term Notes or under
any other Loan Document shall be made, in accordance with this Section 2.13, free and clear
of and without deduction for any and all present or future Taxes. If any Credit Party shall be
required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder (including any
payments made pursuant to Section 13) or under the Term Notes, (i) the sum payable shall be
increased as much as shall be necessary so that, after making all required withholdings and
deductions (including withholdings and deductions applicable to

50

 

additional sums payable under this Section 2.13), Agent or Lenders, as applicable,
receive an amount equal to the sum they would have received had no such withholdings and deductions
been made, (ii) such Credit Party shall make such withholdings and deductions, and (iii) such
Credit Party shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in
accordance with applicable law. Within thirty (30) days after the date of any such payment of
Taxes, Borrower shall furnish to Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing
payment thereof.

          (b) In addition, each Credit Party agrees to pay any present or future stamp, recording or
documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise from
any payment made under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document or from the execution,
delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents
and any other agreements and instruments contemplated hereby or thereby (“Other Taxes”).
Each Lender agrees that, as promptly as reasonably practicable after it becomes aware of any
circumstances referred to above which would result in additional payments under this Section
2.13, it shall notify Borrower thereof.

          (c) Each Credit Party that is a signatory hereto shall jointly and severally indemnify and,
within ten (10) days of demand therefor, pay Agent and each Lender for the full amount of Taxes and
Other Taxes (including, any Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this
Section 2.13) paid by (or on behalf of) Agent or such Lender as a result of payments made
pursuant to this Agreement, as appropriate, and any liability (including, penalties, interest and
expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or
legally asserted; provided, however, that no Credit Party shall be required to
compensate Agent or any Lender for any Taxes or Other Taxes incurred more than one hundred eighty
(180) days prior to the date that such Agent or Lender notifies Borrower of such Taxes or Other
Taxes and of such Agent or Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefore; provided,
further, however that if the circumstances giving rise to such Taxes or Other Taxes
are retroactive, then the 180 day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period
of retroactive effect thereof. A certificate as to the amount of such Taxes and evidence of
payment thereof submitted to the Credit Parties shall be prima facie evidence, absent manifest
error, of the amount due from the Credit Parties to Agent or such Lenders. Upon actually learning
of the imposition of Taxes, Agent or Lender, as the case may be, shall act in good faith to notify
Borrower of the imposition of such Taxes arising hereunder.

          (d) Each Lender and the successors and assignees of such Lender, that is a “United States
person” within the meaning of section 7701(a)(30) of the IRC and not an exempt recipient (as
defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.6049-4(c)) shall deliver to Borrower (with a copy to
Agent) a properly completed and executed IRS Form W-9 or such other documentation or information
prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Agent and Borrower to determine whether
such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Each Lender,
and the successors and assignees of such Lender, organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside
of the United States (“Foreign Lender”) to whom payments to be made under this Agreement or
under the Term Notes may be exempt from, or eligible for a reduced rate of, United States
withholding tax (as applicable) under the law of the jurisdiction in which Borrower is located or
under any tax treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party shall, at the time or times prescribed
by applicable law, provide to Borrower (with a copy to Agent) a

51

 

properly completed and executed IRS Form W-8ECI or Form W-8BEN or other applicable form,
certificate or document prescribed by the IRS or the United States.

          (e) If any of Agent or any Lender, as applicable, determines, in its sole discretion, that it
has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Credit Party or with
respect to which any Credit Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section
2.13, it shall pay over such refund to such Credit Party (but only to the extent of indemnity
payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Credit Party under this Section 2.13
with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such
Agent or Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental
Authority with respect to such refund).

          (f) The provisions of this Section 2.13 shall survive the termination of this
Agreement and repayment of all Obligations.

     2.14 Capital Adequacy; Increased Costs; Illegality.

          (a) If any Lender shall have determined that any law, treaty, governmental (or
quasi-governmental) rule, regulation, guideline or order regarding capital adequacy, reserve
requirements or similar requirements or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive
regarding capital adequacy, reserve requirements or similar requirements (whether or not having the
force of law), in each case, adopted after the Closing Date, from any central bank or other
Governmental Authority increases or would have the effect of increasing the amount of capital,
reserves or other funds required to be maintained by such Lender and thereby reducing the rate of
return on such Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder, then Borrower shall
from time to time upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to Agent) pay to Agent,
for the account of such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such
reduction. A certificate as to the amount of that reduction and showing the basis of the
computation thereof submitted by such Lender to Borrower and to Agent shall, absent manifest error,
be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes.

          (b) If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in any law or regulation (or any
change in the interpretation thereof) or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any
central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), in each case
adopted after the Closing Date, there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender of agreeing
to make or making, funding or maintaining the Term Loan, then Borrower shall from time to time,
upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to Agent), pay to Agent for the account of
such Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased cost. A
certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to Borrower and to Agent by such
Lender, shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes. Each
Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable after it becomes aware of any circumstances referred
to above which would result in any such increased cost, the affected Lender shall, to the extent
not inconsistent with such Lender’s internal policies of general application, use reasonable
commercial efforts to minimize costs and expenses incurred by it and payable to it by Borrower
pursuant to this Section 2.14(b).

52

 

          (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the introduction of or any
change in any law or regulation (or any change in the interpretation thereof) shall make it
unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for
any Lender to agree to make or to make or to continue to fund or maintain any LIBOR Loan, then,
unless that Lender is able to make or to continue to fund or to maintain such LIBOR Loan at another
branch or office of that Lender without, in that Lender’s reasonable opinion, materially adversely
affecting it or its Term Loans or the income obtained therefrom, on notice thereof and demand
therefor by such Lender to Borrower through Agent, (i) the obligation of such Lender to agree to
make or to make or to continue to fund or maintain LIBOR Loans shall terminate and (ii) Borrower
shall forthwith prepay in full all outstanding LIBOR Loans owing by Borrower to such Lender,
together with interest accrued thereon, unless Borrower, within five (5) Business Days after the
delivery of such notice and demand, converts all LIBOR Loans into Base Rate Loans. The Dodd-Frank
Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, guidelines or directives in
connection therewith (collectively, the “Dodd-Frank Act”) are deemed to have been adopted
and gone into effect after the date of this Agreement to the extent necessary to provide Lenders
with the benefit of this Section 2.14 with respect to any “change in law or regulation”
resulting from the Dodd-Frank Act.

          (d) Within thirty (30) days after receipt by Borrower of written notice and demand from any
Lender (an “Affected Lender”) for payment of additional amounts or increased costs as
provided in Sections 2.13(a), 2.14(a) or 2.14(b), Borrower may, at its
option, notify Agent and such Affected Lender of its intention to replace the Affected Lender. So
long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower, with the consent of Agent,
may obtain, at Borrower’s expense, a replacement Lender (“Replacement Lender”) for the
Affected Lender, which Replacement Lender must be reasonably satisfactory to Agent. If Borrower
obtains a Replacement Lender within ninety (90) days following notice of its intention to do so,
the Affected Lender must sell and assign its Term Loans and Commitments to such Replacement Lender
for an amount equal to the principal balance of all Term Loans held by the Affected Lender and all
accrued interest and Fees with respect thereto through the date of such sale and such assignment
shall not require the payment of an assignment fee to Agent; provided, that Borrower shall
have reimbursed such Affected Lender for the additional amounts or increased costs that it is
entitled to receive under this Agreement through the date of such sale and assignment.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall not have the right to obtain a Replacement Lender if
the Affected Lender rescinds its demand for increased costs or additional amounts within 15 days
following its receipt of Borrower’s notice of intention to replace such Affected Lender.
Furthermore, if Borrower gives a notice of intention to replace and does not so replace such
Affected Lender within ninety (90) days thereafter, Borrower’s rights under this Section
2.14(d) shall terminate with respect to such Affected Lender for such request for additional
amounts or increased costs and Borrower shall promptly pay all increased costs or additional
amounts demanded by such Affected Lender pursuant to Sections 2.13(a), 2.14(a) and
2.14(b). An exercise of Borrower’s option under this Section 2.14(d) shall not
suspend Borrower’s obligation to pay such increased costs or additional amounts demanded by such
Affected Lender pursuant to Sections 2.13(a), 2.14(a) and 2.14(b) until
such Affected Lender is replaced.

53

 

     2.15 Single Loan. All Term Loans to Borrower and all of the other Obligations of
Borrower arising under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall constitute one general
obligation of Borrower secured, until the Termination Date, by all of the Collateral.

     2.16 Incremental Term Loans.

          (a) Borrower may on any date on or after the date that is 90 days following the Closing Date,
by notice to Agent (whereupon Agent shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders), increase
the Term Loans hereunder with incremental term loans (the “Incremental Term Loans”) in an
amount not to exceed $100,000,000; provided that at the time of the effectiveness of any
Incremental Term Loan Amendment referred to below, (a) no Default or Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing on such date or after giving effect to the extensions of credit to be
made on such date, (b) each of the representations and warranties made by any Credit Party in or
pursuant to the Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of such
date as if made on and as of such date (except where such representations and warranties expressly
relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true
and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date) and (c) Agent shall have received a
certificate to that effect dated such date and executed by a Financial Officer of Borrower.
Incremental Term Loans may be made by any existing Lender or by any other financial institution or
any fund that regularly invests in bank loans selected by Borrower (any such other financial
institution or fund being called an “Incremental Lender”); provided that Agent shall have
consented (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) to such Lender’s or Incremental Lender’s
making such Incremental Term Loans if such consent would be required under Section 11.1 for
an assignment of Term Loans to such Lender or Incremental Lender. No consent of the Lenders shall
be required (other than the Lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans). Commitments in respect
of Incremental Term Loans shall be made pursuant to an amendment (an “Incremental Term Loan
Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by
Borrower, each Lender agreeing to provide such Incremental Term Loans, if any, each Incremental
Lender, if any, and Agent. Any Incremental Term Loans made hereunder shall be deemed “Term Loans”
hereunder and shall be subject to the same terms and conditions applicable to the existing Term
Loans. No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Incremental Term Loans, unless it so agrees.

          (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Incremental Term Loans
shall be subject to the same terms as the existing Term Loans (including voluntary and mandatory
prepayment provisions), except that, unless such Incremental Term Loans are made a part of the Term
Loans (in which case all terms thereof shall be identical to those of the Term Loans), provided
that (a) the “effective margin” applicable to the respective Incremental Term Loans (which, for
such purposes only, shall be deemed to include all upfront or similar fees or original issue
discount (amortized over the shorter of (1) the weighted average life to maturity of such
Incremental Term Loans and (2) four years) payable to all Lenders providing such Incremental Term
Loans or the imposition of an interest rate floor, but exclusive of any arrangement, structuring or
other fees payable in connection therewith that are not shared with all Lenders providing such
Incremental Term Loans) determined as of the initial funding date for such Incremental Term Loans,
may exceed the “effective margin” applicable to any Term Loans or any other Incremental Term Loans
(determined on the same

54

 

basis as provided in the preceding parenthetical) by up to 0.50% per annum (after giving
effect to any Incremental Facility Yield Adjustment), (b) the final stated maturity date for such
Incremental Term Loans may be later (but not sooner) than the Commitment Termination Date, (c) the
amortization requirements for such Incremental Term Loans may differ, so long as the average
weighted life to maturity of such Incremental Term Loans is no shorter than the average weighted
life to maturity applicable to the then outstanding Term Loans, (d) other than as set forth in
clause (a) above, any minimum LIBOR Rate or Base Rate applicable to such Incremental Term Loans may
exceed the minimum LIBOR Rate and Base Rate applicable to the outstanding Term Loans if such
minimum LIBOR Rate and/or Base Rate applicable to all then outstanding Term Loans is increased to
match such minimum LIBOR Rate and/or Base Rate applicable to such Incremental Term Loans, (e)
Incremental Term Loans may rank junior in right of security/priority in the Collateral with the
other Term Loans made on the Closing Date or be unsecured, in which case, the Incremental Term
Loans will be established as a separate facility from the then existing Term Loans and (f) other
terms may differ if reasonably satisfactory to Agent, Borrower and solely the Lenders providing
such Incremental Term Loans.

          (c) If the existing Lenders are unwilling to increase their applicable Commitments by an
amount equal to the requested Incremental Term Loans, Agent, in consultation with Borrower, will
use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain one or more financial institutions which are not
then Lenders (which financial institution may be suggested by Borrower) to become party to this
Agreement and to provide the requested Incremental Term Loans; provided, however,
compensation for any such assistance by Agent shall be mutually agreed by Agent and Borrower.

change or prospective change in any law or GAAP, or any interpretation thereof, (D) any change in
currency, exchange or interest rates or the financial or securities markets generally, (E) any
change in the market price or trading volume of the common Stock of Borrower, provided, that any
event that caused or contributed to such change in market price or trading volume shall not be
excluded, (F) any change to the extent resulting from the announcement or pendency of the Related
Transactions and/or (G) any change resulting from actions of Borrower or its Subsidiaries expressly
agreed to or requested in writing by Agent, except in the cases of clauses (ii) and
(iii) to the extent such change or event is disproportionately adverse with respect to
Borrower and its Subsidiaries when compared to other companies in the industry in which Borrower
and its Subsidiaries operate, shall, in any case, in and of itself be deemed to constitute a
Closing Date Material Adverse Effect.

          (k) Disclosure Statement and Plan of Reorganization. The Disclosure Statement and
Plan of Reorganization (together with all exhibits and other attachments thereto, as any of the
foregoing has been amended, modified or supplemented prior to the date hereof, collectively, the
“Plan Documents”) shall not have been amended, modified or supplemented or any of the terms
and conditions thereof waived, in each case in a manner materially adverse to the Lenders without
the consent of Agent. The Bankruptcy Court shall have entered the Confirmation Order confirming
the Plan of Reorganization, and all conditions precedent (other than the effectiveness of the
financing contemplated under the Revolving Loan Credit Agreement and under this Agreement) to the
effectiveness of the Plan of Reorganization shall have been satisfied (or waived with the consent
of Agent with respect to any waiver that is, in the reasonable judgment of Agent, adverse in any
material respect to the rights or interests of the Lenders). No motion, action or proceeding shall
be pending against any Credit Party or any of their Subsidiaries by any creditor or other party in
interest which materially and adversely affects or may reasonably be expected to materially and
adversely affect the Plan of Reorganization or the Term Loans.

          (l) Representations and Warranties. As of the Closing Date, the representations and
warranties contained herein and in the other Loan Documents shall be true

61

 

and correct in all material respects on and as of the Closing Date to the same extent as
though made on and as of such date, except to the extent such representations and warranties
specifically relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall
have been true and correct in all material respects on and as of such earlier date.

          (m) No Default. As of the Closing Date, no event shall have occurred and be
continuing that would constitute an Event of Default or a Default.

          (n) Patriot Act. Agent shall have received from the Credit Parties all documentation and
other information required by Governmental Authorities under applicable “know your customer” and
anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Patriot Act, in each case to the extent
requested in writing at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date.

     3.2 Further Conditions to Each Continuation/Conversion. Except as otherwise expressly
provided herein, no Lender shall be obligated to convert or continue the Term Loans as a LIBOR Loan
with a LIBOR Period longer than one (1) month, if, as of the date thereof (a) any Default or Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing and (b) Agent or Requisite Lenders shall have determined
not to convert or continue any portion of the Term Loans as a LIBOR Loan with a LIBOR Period longer
than one (1) month as a result of that Default or Event of Default. The conversion or continuation
of the Term Loans into, or as, a LIBOR Loan with a LIBOR Period longer than one (1) month shall be
deemed to constitute, as of the date thereof, a representation and warranty by Borrower that the
condition in this Section 3.2 have been satisfied.

standing under the laws of its respective jurisdiction of incorporation or organization set forth
in Schedule (4.1); (b) is duly qualified to conduct business and is in good standing in

result in a Material Adverse Effect; (c) has the requisite power and authority, except to the
extent the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect, and the legal right to own and operate in all material respects its properties, to lease

heretofore and proposed to be conducted and has the requisite power and authority and the legal
right to pledge, mortgage, hypothecate or otherwise encumber the Collateral; (d) subject to

incorporation or organization, organization type, organization number, if any, issued by its state

Schedule (4.2) lists the federal employer identification number and organizational
identification number, if any, of each Credit Party.

     4.3 Corporate Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations. The execution, delivery
and performance by each Credit Party of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and the creation
of all Liens provided for therein: (a) are within such Person’s power; (b) have been duly

the Loan Documents shall be duly executed and delivered by each Credit Party that is a party
thereto and, each such Loan Document shall constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of such
Credit Party enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that the
enforceability thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance,
reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws generally affecting creditors’ rights and by
equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law).

     4.4 Financial Statements and Business Plan. Except for the Business Plan, all
Financial Statements concerning Borrower and its Subsidiaries that are referred to below have

63

 

been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods covered
(except as disclosed therein and except, with respect to unaudited Financial Statements, for the
absence of footnotes and normal year-end audit adjustments) and fairly present, in all material
respects, the financial position of the Persons covered thereby as at the dates thereof and the
results of their operations and cash flows for the periods then ended.

          (a) Financial Statements. The following Financial Statements attached to a
certificate of a Financial Officer of Borrower have been delivered on the Closing Date:

               (i) The audited consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2009 and the related statements of
income and cash flows of Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the Fiscal Years then ended, certified
by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP.

               (ii) The unaudited balance sheets at March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2010 and the related
statements of income and cash flows of Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the Fiscal Quarters then
ended.

               (iii) The unaudited balance sheets and related statements of income of Borrower and its
Subsidiaries for the months ended July 31, 2010 and August 31, 2010.

          (b) Pro Forma. The Pro Forma delivered on the Closing Date and attached to a
certificate of a Financial Officer of Borrower was prepared by Borrower giving Pro Forma Effect to
the Related Transactions, was based on the unaudited consolidated balance sheets of Borrower and
each of its Subsidiaries dated June 30, 2010 and was prepared in accordance with GAAP, with only
such adjustments thereto as would be required in accordance with GAAP. The projections and pro
forma financial information contained in the materials referenced above are based upon good faith
estimates and assumptions believed by management of Borrower to be reasonable at the time made, it
being acknowledged and agreed by the Lenders that (a) such financial information as it relates to
future events is not to be viewed as fact and that actual results during the period or periods
covered by such financial information may differ from the projected results set forth therein by a
material amount, (b) the financial and business projections furnished to Agent or the Lenders are
subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, which may be beyond the control of Borrower
and its Subsidiaries, (c) no assurances are given by any of Borrower or its Subsidiaries that the
results forecasted in the projections will be realized and (d) the actual results may differ from
the forecasted results in such projections and such differences may be material.

          (c) Business Plan. The Business Plan delivered on the Closing Date and attached to a
certificate of a Financial Officer of Borrower has been prepared by Borrower in light of the past
operations of its business, and reflect monthly forecasts for the twelve month period commencing
October 1, 2010 through September 30, 2011, and annual forecasts on a year-by-year basis thereafter
through Fiscal Year 2017. The Business Plan is based upon the same accounting principles as those
used in the preparation of the financial statements described above and the estimates and
assumptions stated therein, all of which Borrower believes to be reasonable and fair in light of
current conditions and current facts known to Borrower and, as of the Closing Date, reflect
Borrower’s good faith estimates believed to be reasonable by Borrower at the time made of the
future financial performance of Borrower for the period set forth therein.

64

 

The projections and pro forma financial information contained in the materials referenced
above are based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by management of Borrower to be
reasonable at the time made, it being acknowledged and agreed by the Lenders that (a) such
financial information as it relates to future events is not to be viewed as fact and that actual
results during the period or periods covered by such financial information may differ from the
projected results set forth therein by a material amount, (b) the financial and business
projections furnished to Agent or the Lenders are subject to significant uncertainties and
contingencies, which may be beyond the control of Borrower and its Subsidiaries, (c) no assurances
are given by any of Borrower or its Subsidiaries that the results forecasted in the projections
will be realized and (d) the actual results may differ from the forecasted results in such
projections and such differences may be material.

          (d) Undisclosed Liabilities; Burdensome Restrictions. None of Borrower or its
Restricted Subsidiaries has any material Guarantied Obligations, contingent liabilities or
liabilities for taxes, or any long-term leases or unusual forward or long-term commitments,
including any interest rate or foreign currency swap or exchange transaction or other obligation in
respect of derivatives, that are not reflected in the most recent financial statements referred to
in this Section 4.4. During the period from August 31, 2010 to and including the Closing
Date, there has been no disposition by any of Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries of any
material part of its business or property. No Credit Party knows of any unusual or unduly
burdensome restriction, restraint or hazard relative to the business or properties of the Credit
Parties and their Restricted Subsidiaries that is not customary for or generally applicable to
similarly situated businesses in the same industry as the Credit Parties and their Restricted
Subsidiaries.

     4.5 Material Adverse Effect. Since the Closing Date, no event has occurred, that
alone or together with other events, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.

     4.6 Ownership of Property; Liens. As of the Closing Date, the real estate (“Real
Estate”) listed in Schedule (4.6) constitutes all of the real property owned, leased,
subleased, or used by any Credit Party. Each Credit Party owns fee simple title to all of its
owned Real Estate, and valid leasehold interests in all of its leased Real Estate. Schedule
(4.6) further describes any Real Estate with respect to which any Credit Party is a lessor,
sublessor or assignor as of the Closing Date. Each Credit Party also has title to, or valid
leasehold interests in, all of its personal property and assets. As of the Closing Date, none of
the properties and assets of any Credit Party are subject to any Liens other than Permitted
Encumbrances, and there are no facts, circumstances or conditions known to any Credit Party that
may result in any Liens (including Liens arising under Environmental Laws) other than Permitted
Encumbrances. Each Credit Party has received all deeds, assignments, waivers, consents,
nondisturbance and attornment or similar agreements, bills of sale and other documents, and has
duly effected all recordings, filings and other actions necessary to establish, protect and perfect
such Credit Party’s right, title and interest in and to all such Real Estate and other properties
and assets. Schedule (4.6) also describes any purchase options, rights of first refusal or
other similar contractual rights, if any, pertaining to any material Real Estate. As of the
Closing Date, all of the Collateral (including, without limitation, Inventory, Equipment, books and
records) is at one or more of the locations listed on Schedule (4.6) or is in-transit
between such locations. As of the Closing Date, no portion of any Credit Party’s Real Estate has
suffered any material damage by fire or other

65

 

casualty loss that has not heretofore been repaired and restored in all material respects to
its original condition or otherwise remedied.

     4.7 Labor Matters. Except as set forth on Schedule (4.7) or as could not
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, (a) no strikes or other material
labor disputes against any Credit Party or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Credit Party are
pending or, to any Credit Party’s knowledge, threatened; (b) hours worked by and payment made to
employees of each Credit Party and each Restricted Subsidiary of any Credit Party comply with the
Fair Labor Standards Act and each other federal, state, local or foreign law applicable to such
matters; (c) all payments due from any Credit Party or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Credit
Party for employee health and welfare insurance have been paid or accrued as a liability on the
books of such Credit Party or such Restricted Subsidiary; (d) there is no organizing activity
involving any Credit Party or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Credit Party pending or, to any
Credit Party’s knowledge, threatened by any labor union or group of employees; (e) there are no
representation proceedings pending or, to any Credit Party’s knowledge, threatened with the
National Labor Relations Board or any other applicable labor relations board, and no labor
organization or group of employees of any Credit Party or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Credit
Party has made a pending demand for recognition; and (f) there are no material complaints or
charges against any Credit Party or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Credit Party pending or, to
the knowledge of any Credit Party, threatened to be filed with any Governmental Authority or
arbitrator based on, arising out of, in connection with, or otherwise relating to the employment or
termination of employment by any Credit Party or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Credit Party of
any individual.

     4.8 Subsidiaries and Joint Ventures. As of the Closing Date, (a) Schedule
(4.8) sets forth the name and jurisdiction of incorporation of each Subsidiary and Joint
Venture of Borrower and, as to each such Subsidiary and Joint Venture, the percentage of each class
of Stock owned by any Credit Party and (b) there are no outstanding subscriptions, options,
warrants, calls, rights or other agreements or commitments (other than stock options granted to
employees or directors and directors’ qualifying shares) of any nature relating to any Stock of
Borrower or any Subsidiary, except as created by the Loan Documents and the Revolving Loan Credit
Documents.

     4.9 Government Regulation. No Credit Party is an “investment company” or a company
controlled by an “investment company,” as such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of
1940. The making of the Term Loans by Lenders to Borrower, the application of the proceeds thereof
and repayment thereof and the consummation of the Related Transactions will not violate any
provision of any such statute or any rule, regulation or order issued by the SEC or any other
securities regulation authority or securities exchange.

     4.10 Margin Regulations. No Credit Party is engaged, nor will it engage, principally
or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of
“purchasing” or “carrying” any “margin stock” as such terms are defined in Regulation U of the
Federal Reserve Board as now and from time to time hereafter in effect (such securities being
referred to herein as “Margin Stock”). No Credit Party owns any Margin Stock, and none of
the proceeds of the Term Loans or other extensions of credit under this Agreement will be used,
directly or indirectly, for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock, for the

66

 

purpose of reducing or retiring any Indebtedness that was originally incurred to purchase or
carry any Margin Stock or for any other purpose that might cause any of the Term Loans or other
extensions of credit under this Agreement to be considered a “purpose credit” within the meaning of
Regulations T, U or X of the Federal Reserve Board. No Credit Party will take or permit to be
taken any action that might cause any Loan Document to violate any regulation of the Federal
Reserve Board.

     4.11 Taxes. All Federal and other material tax returns, reports and statements,
including information returns, required by any Governmental Authority to be filed by any Credit
Party or any Restricted Subsidiary have been filed (after giving effect to any extensions) with the
appropriate Governmental Authority, and all Taxes have been paid prior to the date on which any
fine, penalty, interest or late charge may be added thereto for nonpayment thereof excluding Taxes
or other amounts being contested in accordance with Section 6.2(b). Except as described in
Schedule (4.11), each Credit Party and each Restricted Subsidiary has withheld from its
respective employees for all periods all material Taxes required to have been withheld pursuant to
all applicable federal, state, local and foreign laws and such withholdings have been timely paid
to the respective Governmental Authorities. Schedule (4.11) sets forth as of the Closing
Date those taxable years for which any Credit Party’s or Restricted Subsidiary’s tax returns are
currently being audited by the IRS or any other applicable Governmental Authority, and any
assessments or threatened assessments (in writing) in connection with such audit, or otherwise
currently outstanding. Except as described in Schedule (4.11), as of the Closing Date, no
Credit Party or any Restricted Subsidiary has executed or filed with the IRS or any other domestic
or foreign Governmental Authority any agreement or other document extending, or having the effect
of extending, the period for assessment or collection of any Charges or Taxes. Except as described
on Schedule (4.11), as of the Closing Date, none of the Credit Parties, Restricted
Subsidiaries and their respective predecessors is liable for any Charges: (a) under any agreement
(including any tax sharing agreements other than those solely among Credit Parties and their
Restricted Subsidiaries) or (b) to each Credit Party’s knowledge, as a transferee. Except as
described on Schedule (4.11), as of the Closing Date, no Credit Party has agreed or been
requested to make any adjustment under IRC Section 481(a), by reason of a change in accounting
method or otherwise, which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

     4.12 ERISA.

          (a) Borrower has previously delivered or made available to Agent all Pension Plans (including
Title IV Plans and Multiemployer Plans) and all Retiree Welfare Plans, as now in effect. Except
with respect to Multiemployer Plans, each Qualified Plan has either received a favorable
determination letter from the IRS or may rely on a favorable opinion letter issued by the IRS, and
to the knowledge of any Credit Party nothing has occurred that would be reasonably expected to
cause the loss of such qualification or tax-exempt status. Each Plan is in compliance in all
material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA, the IRC and its terms, including the
timely filing of all reports required under the IRC or ERISA. Except as has not resulted, or could
not reasonably be expected to result, in an ERISA Lien (whether or not perfected), neither any
Credit Party nor ERISA Affiliate has failed to make any material contribution or pay any material
amount due as required by either Section 412 of the IRC or Section 302 of ERISA or the terms of any
such Plan. No “prohibited transaction,” as defined in Section 406 of ERISA and

67

 

Section 4975 of the IRC, has occurred with respect to any Plan that would subject any Credit
Party to a material tax on prohibited transactions imposed by Section 502(i) of ERISA or
Section 4975 of the IRC.

          (b) Except as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect: (i) no Title
IV Plan or Foreign Plan has any material Unfunded Pension Liability; (ii) no ERISA Event has
occurred or to the knowledge of any Credit Party is reasonably expected to occur; (iii) there are
no pending, or to the knowledge of any Credit Party, threatened material claims (other than claims
for benefits in the normal course), sanctions, actions or lawsuits, asserted or instituted against
any Plan or any Person as fiduciary or sponsor of any Plan; (iv) no Credit Party or ERISA Affiliate
has incurred or reasonably expects to incur any material liability as a result of a complete or
partial withdrawal from a Multiemployer Plan; and (v) within the last five years no Title IV Plan
of any Credit Party or ERISA Affiliate has been terminated, whether or not in a “standard
termination” as that term is used in Section 4041 of ERISA, nor has any Title IV Plan of any Credit
Party or any ERISA Affiliate (determined at any time within the last five years) with material
Unfunded Pension Liabilities been transferred outside of the “controlled group” (within the meaning
of Section 4001(a)(14) of ERISA) of any Credit Party or ERISA Affiliate (determined at such time).

          (c) Each Foreign Plan has been maintained in compliance with its terms and with the
requirements of any and all applicable requirements of applicable law and has been maintained,
where required, in good standing with applicable regulatory authorities, except for any
noncompliance which could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
Neither Borrower nor any Restricted Subsidiary has incurred any obligation in connection with the
termination of or withdrawal from any Foreign Plan, except as could not reasonably be expected to
result in a Material Adverse Effect.

     4.13 No Litigation. No action, claim, lawsuit, demand, investigation or proceeding is
now pending or, to the knowledge of any Credit Party, threatened in writing against any Credit
Party or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Credit Party, before any Governmental Authority or before
any arbitrator or panel of arbitrators (collectively, “Litigation”), (a) that challenges
such Credit Party’s right or power to enter into or perform any of its obligations under the Loan
Documents to which it is a party, or the validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or any
action taken thereunder, or (b) that has a reasonable risk of being determined adversely to any
Credit Party or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Credit Party and that, if so determined, could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth on Schedule
(4.13), as of the Closing Date there is no Litigation pending or, to any Credit Party’s
knowledge, threatened in writing, that seeks damages in excess of $5,000,000 or injunctive relief
against, or alleges criminal misconduct of, any Credit Party or any Restricted Subsidiary of any
Credit Party.

     4.14 Brokers. Except as set forth on Schedule (4.14), no broker or finder
brought about the obtaining, making or closing of the Term Loans or the Related Transactions, and
no Credit Party or Affiliate thereof has any obligation to any Person in respect of any finder’s or
brokerage fees in connection therewith.

68

 

     4.15 Intellectual Property. As of the Closing Date, each Credit Party owns or has
rights to use all Intellectual Property necessary to continue to conduct its business as now
conducted by it and material to such Credit Party’s business, taken as a whole, except where
failure to so own or have rights could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect. Each issued or applied-for Patent, registered or applied-for Trademark, registered or
applied-for Copyright owned by any Credit Party is listed, together with application or
registration numbers, as applicable, on Schedule (4.15). Schedule (4.15) also sets
forth a list of Licenses that are material to each Credit Party’s business as now conducted by it.
To the best of Borrower’s knowledge, each Credit Party conducts its business and affairs without
infringement of any Intellectual Property of any other Person that could reasonably be expected to
result in a Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth in Schedule (4.15), no Credit
Party is aware of any material infringement claim by any other Person with respect to any material
Intellectual Property owned by such Credit Party.

     4.16 Full Disclosure. No information contained in this Agreement, any of the other
Loan Documents, Financial Statements or Collateral Reports or other written reports from time to
time prepared by any Credit Party (other than the projections referred to below and information of
a general economic or industry nature) and delivered hereunder or any written statement prepared by
any Credit Party and furnished (taken as a whole) by or on behalf of any Credit Party to Agent or
any Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement contains or will contain any untrue statement of
a material fact or omits or will omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements
contained herein or therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under which
they were made (after giving effect to all supplements and updates thereto). The Business Plans
from time to time delivered hereunder are or will be based upon the estimates and assumptions
stated therein, all of which Borrower believed at the time of delivery to be reasonable and fair in
light of current conditions and current facts known to Borrower as of such delivery date, and
reflect Borrower’s good faith estimates of the future financial performance of Borrower and its
Subsidiaries and of the other information projected therein for the period set forth therein. Such
Business Plan is not a guaranty of future performance and actual results may differ from those set
forth in such Business Plan. The projections and pro forma financial information contained in the
materials referenced above are based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by
management of Borrower to be reasonable at the time made, it being acknowledged and agreed by Agent
and the Lenders that (a) such financial information as it relates to future events is not to be
viewed as fact and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such financial
information may differ from the projected results set forth therein by a material amount, (b) the
financial and business projections furnished to Agent or the Lenders are subject to significant
uncertainties and contingencies, which may be beyond the control of Borrower and its Subsidiaries,
(c) no assurances are given by any of Borrower or its Subsidiaries that the results forecasted in
the projections will be realized and (d) the actual results may differ from the forecasted results
in such projections and such differences may be material.

     4.17 Environmental Matters.

          (a) Except as set forth in Schedule (4.17), as of the Closing Date: (i) the Real
Estate of each Credit Party and each of their Restricted Subsidiaries is free of contamination from
any Hazardous Material except for such contamination that would not result in

69

 

Environmental Liabilities that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;
(ii) no Credit Party nor any Restricted Subsidiary of any Credit Party has caused or suffered to
occur any material Release of Hazardous Materials on, at, in, under, above, to, from or about any
of its Real Estate except for such Release of Hazardous Materials that would not result in
Environmental Liabilities that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;
(iii) the Credit Parties and each of their Restricted Subsidiaries are and have, for the past eight
(8) years, been in compliance with all Environmental Laws, except for such noncompliance that would
not result in Environmental Liabilities which could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect; (iv) the Credit Parties and each of their Restricted Subsidiaries (A) have
obtained, (B) possess as valid, uncontested and in good standing, and (C) are in compliance with
all Environmental Permits required by Environmental Laws for the operation of their respective
businesses as presently conducted or as proposed to be conducted, except where the failure to so
obtain, possess or comply with such Environmental Permits would not result in Environmental
Liabilities that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; (v) to the best of
Borrower’s knowledge there is no Litigation arising under or related to any Environmental Laws,
Environmental Permits or Hazardous Material that seeks damages, penalties, fines, costs or expenses
the payment of which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or injunctive
relief which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect against, or that
alleges criminal misconduct by, any Credit Party or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Credit Party;
(vi) no written notice has been received by any Credit Party or any Restricted Subsidiary of any
Credit Party identifying it as a “potentially responsible party” or requesting information under
CERCLA or analogous state statutes, except for such notice that would not result in Environmental
Liabilities that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; and (vii) the
Credit Parties and each of their Restricted Subsidiaries have provided to Agent copies of existing
environmental reports, reviews and audits and written information sufficient, along with
Schedule (4.17), to disclose actual or potential material Environmental Liabilities, in
each case relating to any Credit Party or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Credit Party.

          (b) Each Credit Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that none of Agent, any other secured
party under the Loan Documents or any of their respective officers, directors, employees,
attorneys, agents and representatives (i) is now, or has ever been, in control of any of the Real
Estate or any Credit Party’s or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Credit Party’s affairs, and (ii)

such Restricted Subsidiary shall become a Credit Party hereunder with the same force and effect as
if originally named as a Credit Party herein. The execution and delivery of the joinder agreement
shall not require the consent of any Credit Party or Lender hereunder. The rights and obligations
of each Credit Party hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition

however, under no circumstances shall the aggregate amount of EBITDA of all Unrestricted
Subsidiaries at any time exceed 10% of the EBITDA of Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries on a
consolidated basis. The designation of any Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall
constitute an Investment by Borrower or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary (as applicable) therein
at the date of designation in an amount equal to the fair market value of all of such Person’s
assets and the Investment resulting from such designation must otherwise be in compliance with
Section 7.2. The designation of any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary
shall constitute the incurrence at the time of designation of any Indebtedness or Liens of such
Subsidiary existing at such time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, none
of the Foreign Stock Holding Companies, any “Borrower” (as defined under the Revolving Loan Credit
Agreement) or any other Subsidiary listed on Schedule (6.16) as not being permitted to be
an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary. As of the Closing

     7.10 Financial Covenants. Borrower shall not breach or fail to comply with any of the
following Financial Covenants, each of which shall be calculated in accordance with GAAP
consistently applied, and tested in the manner set forth herein:

          (a) Maximum Capital Expenditures. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries on a
consolidated basis shall not make Capital Expenditures during any Fiscal Year that exceed in the
aggregate the amounts set forth opposite each such Fiscal Year below:

	 	 	 
	Fiscal Year	 	Capital Expenditures
	December 31, 2010
	 	$211,000,000
	December 31, 2011
	 	$275,000,000
	December 31, 2012
	 	$245,000,000
	December 31, 2013 and each Fiscal Year thereafter
	 	$245,000,000

; provided, if the amount of all Capital Expenditures is less than the sum of the maximum
amounts designated above for such period, Borrower may carry over such unused amount (the
“Carry Over Amount”) for the next consecutive Fiscal Year; provided,
further, that such Carry Over Amount may only be used in such succeeding Fiscal Year (it
being understood that the Carry Over Amount shall be deemed to be used first in such succeeding
Fiscal Year). In addition, for any Fiscal Year, the amount of Capital Expenditures that would
otherwise be permitted in such Fiscal Year pursuant to this Section 7.10(a) (including as a
result of any Carry Over Amount) may be increased by an amount not to exceed $100,000,000 (the
“CapEx Pull-Forward Amount”). The actual CapEx Pull-Forward Amount in respect of any such
Fiscal Year shall reduce, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, the amount of Capital Expenditures that
would have been permitted to be made in the immediately succeeding Fiscal Year. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in the foregoing, for each Permitted Acquisition consummated in any Fiscal
Year, the amount set forth above next to each Fiscal Year (the “Base Amount”) for such
Fiscal Year (subject to the second proviso in this sentence) and for every Fiscal Year thereafter
shall be increased by an amount equal to (i) the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the
amount of Capital Expenditures made by the acquired entity or business for the thirty-six (36)
month period immediately preceding the consummation of such Permitted Acquisition, by (B) three
(3), or (ii) if the information described in the foregoing clause (i)(A) is not available,
3.5% of the cumulative sales over the immediately preceding twelve (12) months of the acquired
Person, division, line of business or other business unit, as determined in financial statements
therefore prepared in accordance with the standards set forth in Section 5.1 (in either
case, such amount, the “Acquired Permitted Capital Expenditure Amount”); provided,
that, with respect to the Fiscal Year during which any such Permitted Acquisition occurs, the
amount of Capital Expenditures permitted under this Section 7.10(a) with respect to such
Fiscal Year shall be increased by an amount equal to the product of (x) the Acquired Permitted
Capital Expenditure Amount and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days
remaining in such Fiscal Year and the denominator of which is 365 or 366, as applicable.

          (b) Maximum Leverage Ratio. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries on a
consolidated basis shall not permit the Total Net Leverage Ratio as of the last day of any Fiscal
Quarter, beginning with the Fiscal Quarter ending December 31, 2010, to exceed 2.50 to 1.00.

97

 

          (c) Minimum Interest Coverage Ratio. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries on a
consolidated basis shall not permit the Interest Coverage Ratio as of the last day of any Fiscal
Quarter, beginning with the Fiscal Quarter ending December 31, 2010, to be less than 3.00 to 1.00.

     Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, any accounting term used in this Agreement
shall have the meaning customarily given to such term in accordance with GAAP, and all financial
computations hereunder shall be computed in accordance with GAAP consistently applied. That
certain items or computations are explicitly modified by the phrase “in accordance with GAAP” shall
in no way be construed to limit the foregoing. If any “Accounting Changes” (as defined below)
occur and such changes result in a change in the calculation of the financial covenants, standards
or terms used in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, then Borrower, Agent and Lenders agree
to enter into negotiations in order to amend such provisions of this Agreement so as to equitably
reflect such Accounting Changes with the desired result that the criteria for evaluating Borrower’s
and its Subsidiaries’ financial condition shall be the same after such Accounting Changes as if
such Accounting Changes had not been made; provided, however, that the agreement of
Requisite Lenders to any required amendments of such provisions shall be sufficient to bind all
Lenders. “Accounting Changes” means (i) changes in accounting principles required by the
promulgation of any rule, regulation, pronouncement or opinion by the Financial Accounting
Standards Board of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (or successor thereto or
any agency with similar functions), (ii) changes in accounting principles concurred in by
Borrower’s certified accountants; (iii) purchase accounting adjustments under A.P.B. 16 or 17 and
EITF 88-16, and the application of the accounting principles set forth in FASB 109, including the
establishment of reserves pursuant thereto and any subsequent reversal (in whole or in part) of
such reserves; and (iv) the reversal of any reserves established as a result of purchase accounting
adjustments. All such adjustments resulting from expenditures made subsequent to the Closing Date
(including capitalization of costs and expenses or payment of pre-Closing Date liabilities) shall
be treated as expenses in the period the expenditures are made and deducted as part of the
calculation of EBITDA in such period. If Agent, Borrower and Requisite Lenders agree upon the
required amendments, then after appropriate amendments have been executed and the underlying
Accounting Change with respect thereto has been implemented, any reference to GAAP contained in
this Agreement or in any other Loan Document shall, only to the extent of such Accounting Change,
refer to GAAP, consistently applied after giving effect to the implementation of such Accounting
Change. If Agent, Borrower and Requisite Lenders cannot agree upon the required amendments within
thirty (30) days following the date of implementation of any Accounting Change, then all Financial
Statements delivered and all calculations of financial covenants and other standards and terms in
accordance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be prepared, delivered and made
without regard to the underlying Accounting Change. For purposes of Section 9.1, a breach
of a Financial Covenant contained in this Section 7.10 shall be deemed to have occurred as
of the last day of any specified measurement period, regardless of when the Financial Statements
reflecting such breach are delivered to Agent.

     7.11 Hazardous Materials. No Credit Party shall, or shall permit any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries to, cause or permit a Release of any Hazardous Material on, at, in, under,
above, to, from or about any of the Real Estate where such Release would (a) violate in any
respect, or

98

 

form the basis for any Environmental Liabilities under, any Environmental Laws or
Environmental Permits or (b) otherwise adversely impact the value or marketability of any of the
Real Estate or any of the Collateral, other than such violations or Environmental Liabilities that
could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

     7.12 Sale-Leaseback Transactions. No Credit Party shall, or shall permit any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries to, engage in any Sale-Leaseback Transaction involving any of its assets
other than (a) Sale-Leaseback Transactions that exist on the Closing Date and are described in
Schedule (7.12), (b) Sale-Leaseback Transactions for fair value (as determined at the time
of the consummation thereof in good faith by the applicable Credit Party or Restricted Subsidiary)
not to exceed $50,000,000 in the aggregate so long as (i) eighty percent (80%) of the consideration
received by such Credit Party or Restricted Subsidiary from such Sale-Leaseback Transaction is in
the form of cash and (ii) the Net Cash Proceeds from any such Sale-Leaseback Transaction are
applied to repay the Obligations in accordance with Section 2.3(b), (c) Sale-Leaseback
Transactions between Credit Parties and (d) Sale-Leaseback Transactions between Excluded
Subsidiaries.

     7.13 Cancellation of Indebtedness. No Credit Party shall, or shall permit any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries to, cancel any claim or debt owing to a Credit Party by a Subsidiary that
is not a Credit Party, provided such cancellation shall constitute an Investment for purposes of
this Agreement and any such Investment is permitted under Section 7.2.

     7.14 Restricted Payments. No Credit Party shall, or shall permit any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any Restricted Payment, except:

          (a) any Subsidiary may make Restricted Payments to Borrower or any Wholly Owned Subsidiary
Guarantor;

          (b) any Subsidiary may make Restricted Payments pro rata to the holders of the Stock of such
Subsidiaries entitled to receive the same;

          (c) Borrower may make Restricted Payments in connection with the share repurchases required by
the director and employee compensation programs as described on Schedule (7.14) so long as
(i) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom and
(ii) the aggregate amount of Restricted Payments paid pursuant to this Section 7.14(c) does
not exceed $5,000,000 in any Fiscal Year (provided each such annual amount may only be used in such
Fiscal Year);

          (d) cash payments by Borrower in lieu of the issuance of fractional shares upon the exercise
of options in the ordinary course of business;

          (e) other Restricted Payments so long as (i) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing or would result therefrom after giving Pro Forma Effect to such Restricted Payment
and (ii) the aggregate amount of all such Restricted Payments paid pursuant to this Section
7.14(e) does not exceed $250,000,000 and/or (ii) other Restricted Payments so long as no
Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom after giving
Pro Forma Effect to such Restricted Payment and Restricted Payments in an amount which equals 25%
(or minus 100% in the case of a loss) of Borrower’s and its Restricted

99

 

Subsidiaries Consolidated Net Income for the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending
on the last day of the Fiscal Quarter most recently ended for which Financial Statements are
available; plus, in the case of Sections 7.14(e)(i)or (e)(ii), an amount
equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds received by Borrower after the Closing Date from the
issuance of its common Stock which is Not Otherwise Applied, minus the aggregate amount of
Investments made pursuant to Section 7.2(h)(ii); provided, however,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Restricted Payment may be made in reliance on an

case, regardless of whether such right is exercised, by such holder or trustee; provided
that this Section 9.1(e) shall not apply to intercompany Indebtedness of an Immaterial
Subsidiary.

          (f) Any representation or warranty herein or in any Loan Document or in any written statement,

securities pledged under the Collateral Documents or to file Code financing statements or
continuation statements or other equivalent filings and except, as to Collateral consisting of Real
Estate to the extent that such losses are covered by a Lender’s title insurance policy and the

     9.2 Remedies.

          (a) To the extent permitted under Section 2.5(d), if any applicable Event of Default
described in Section 2.5(d) has occurred and is continuing, the rate of interest applicable
to the Term Loans shall increase to the Default Rate.

          (b) If any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Agent shall, at the written
request of the Requisite Lenders, take any or all of the following actions: (i) terminate the Term
Loan facility; (ii) declare all or any portion of the Obligations, including all or any portion of
Term Loans to be forthwith due and payable, all without presentment, demand, protest or further
notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived by Borrower and each other Credit Party; or
(iii) exercise any rights and remedies provided to Agent under the Loan Documents or at law or
equity, including all remedies provided under the Code and any other applicable law of any
jurisdiction; provided, that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in
Section 9.1(k) or Section 9.1(l), all Obligations shall become immediately due and
payable without declaration, notice or demand by any Person. Agent shall, as soon as reasonably
practicable, provide to Borrower notice of any action taken pursuant to this Section 9.2(b)
(but failure to provide such notice shall not impair the rights of Agent or the Lenders hereunder
and shall not impose any liability upon Agent or the Lenders for not providing such notice).

     9.3 Waivers by Credit Parties. Except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement or
by applicable law, each Credit Party waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law:
(a) presentment, demand and protest and notice of presentment, dishonor, notice of intent to
accelerate, notice of acceleration, protest, default, nonpayment, maturity, release, compromise,
settlement, extension or renewal of any or all commercial paper, accounts, contract rights,
documents, instruments, chattel paper and guaranties at any time held by Agent as Collateral on
which any Credit Party may in any way be liable, and hereby ratifies and confirms whatever Agent
may do in this regard, (b) all rights to notice and a hearing prior to Agent’s taking possession or
control of, or to Agent’s replevy, attachment or levy upon, the Collateral or any bond or security

(c) the benefit of all valuation, appraisal, marshaling and exemption laws. Each Credit Party
acknowledges that in the event such Credit Party fails to perform, observe or discharge any of its
obligations or liabilities under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any remedy of law may
prove to be inadequate relief to Agent and the Lenders; therefore, such

105

 

Credit Party agrees, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or by applicable law, that
Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief in any such
case without the necessity of proving actual damages.

10. APPOINTMENT OF AGENT

     10.1 Appointment of Agent. MSSF is hereby appointed to act on behalf of all Lenders
with respect to the administration of the Term Loans made to Borrower and to act as agent on behalf
of all Lenders with respect to Collateral of Credit Parties under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents. The provisions of this Section 10.1 are solely for the benefit of Agent and
Lenders and no Credit Party nor any other Person shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary
of any of the provisions hereof. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents, Agent shall act solely as an agent of Lenders and does not assume or
shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust with
or for any Credit Party or any other Person. Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities
except for those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The duties of
Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature and Agent shall not have, or be deemed to
have, by reason of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise a fiduciary relationship in
respect of any Lender. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, nor shall it be liable for failure to
disclose, any information relating to any Credit Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries or
any Account Debtor that is communicated to or obtained by MSSF or any of its Affiliates in any
capacity. Neither Agent nor any of its Affiliates nor any of their respective officers, directors,
employees, agents or representatives shall be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted
to be taken by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or in connection herewith or
therewith, except for damages caused by its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct as
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment.

     If Agent shall request instructions from Requisite Lenders or all affected Lenders with
respect to any act or action (including failure to act) in connection with this Agreement or any
other Loan Document, then Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action
unless and until Agent shall have received instructions from Requisite Lenders or all affected
Lenders, as the case may be, and Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so
refraining. Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action hereunder or
under any other Loan Document (a) if such action would, in the opinion of Agent, be contrary to law
or the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (b) if such action would, in the opinion
of Agent, expose Agent to Environmental Liabilities or (c) if Agent shall not first be indemnified
to its satisfaction against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason
of taking or continuing to take any such action. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall
have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent acting or refraining from
acting hereunder or under any other Loan Document in accordance with the instructions of Requisite
Lenders or all affected Lenders, as applicable.

     10.2 Agent’s Reliance, Etc. Neither Agent nor any of its Affiliates nor any of their
respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted
to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan

106

 

Documents, except for damages caused by its or their own gross negligence or willful
misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable
judgment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent: (a) may treat the payee of any
Term Note as the holder thereof until Agent receives written notice of the assignment or transfer
thereof signed by such payee and in form reasonably satisfactory to Agent; (b) may consult with
legal counsel, independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be
liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the
advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (c) makes no warranty or representation to any
Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender for any statements, warranties or representations
made in or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; (d) shall not have any
duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants
or conditions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents on the part of any Credit Party or to
inspect the Collateral (including the books and records) of any Credit Party; (e) shall not be
responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness,
sufficiency or value of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or
document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; (f) shall incur no liability under or in respect of
this Agreement or the other Loan Documents by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other
instrument or writing (which may be by telecopy, telegram, cable or telex) believed by it to be
genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties; and (g) shall be entitled to delegate
any of its duties hereunder to one or more sub-agents.

     Except for action requiring the approval of Requisite Lenders or all Lenders, as the case may
be, Agent shall be entitled to use its discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from
exercising any rights which may be vested in it by, and with respect to taking or refraining from
taking any action or actions which it may be able to take under or in respect of, this Agreement,
unless Agent shall have been instructed by Requisite Lenders or all Lenders, as the case may be, to
exercise or refrain from exercising such rights or to take or refrain from taking such action.
Agent shall not incur any liability to the Lenders under or in respect of this Agreement with
respect to anything which it may do or refrain from doing in the reasonable exercise of its
judgment or which may seem to it to be necessary or desirable in the circumstances, except for its
own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a
final and non-appealable judgment. Agent shall not be liable to any Lender in acting or refraining
from acting under this Agreement in accordance with the instructions of Requisite Lenders or all
Lenders, as the case may be, and any action taken or failure to act pursuant to such instructions
shall be binding on all Lenders.

     10.3 MSSF and Affiliates. With respect to its Commitments hereunder, MSSF shall have
the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any other Lender
and may exercise the same as though it were not Agent; and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall,
unless otherwise expressly indicated, include MSSF in its individual capacity. MSSF and its
Affiliates may lend money to, invest in, and generally engage in any kind of business with, any
Credit Party, any of their Affiliates and any Person who may do business with or own securities of
any Credit Party or any such Affiliate, all as if MSSF were not Agent and without any duty to
account therefor to Lenders. MSSF and its Affiliates may accept fees and other consideration from
any Credit Party for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to
account for the same to Lenders.

107

 

     10.4 Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and
without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender and based on the Financial Statements referred to
in Section 4.4(a) and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate,
made its own credit and financial analysis of the Credit Parties and its own decision to enter into
this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance
upon Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem
appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action
under this Agreement. Each Lender acknowledges the potential conflict of interest of each other
Lender as a result of Lenders holding disproportionate interests in the Term Loans, and expressly
consents to, and waives any claim based upon, such conflict of interest. Each Lender acknowledges
the potential conflict of interest between MSSF, as a Lender, holding disproportionate interests in
the Term Loans, and MSSF, as Agent.

     10.5 Indemnification. Lenders agree to indemnify Agent (to the extent not reimbursed
by Credit Parties and without limiting the obligations of Credit Parties hereunder), ratably
according to their respective Pro Rata Shares, from and against any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted
against Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or
any action taken or omitted to be taken by Agent in connection therewith; provided, that no
Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from Agent’s gross
negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and
non-appealable judgment. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse Agent
promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable
counsel fees) incurred by Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery,
administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal
proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this
Agreement and each other Loan Document, to the extent that Agent is not reimbursed for such
expenses by Credit Parties.

     10.6 Successor Agent. Agent may resign at any time by giving not less than thirty
(30) days’ prior written notice thereof to Lenders and Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the
Requisite Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent. If no successor Agent shall
have been so appointed by the Requisite Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within
thirty (30) days after the resigning Agent’s giving notice of resignation, then the resigning Agent
may, on behalf of Lenders, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a Lender, if a Lender is
willing to accept such appointment, or otherwise shall be a commercial bank, financial institution
or trust company. If no successor Agent has been appointed pursuant to the foregoing, within
thirty (30) days after the date such notice of resignation was given by the resigning Agent, such
resignation shall become effective and (a) the Requisite Lenders shall thereafter perform all the
duties of Agent hereunder and (b) Agent shall deliver any possessory Collateral in its possession
to the Revolver Agent to be held in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement or delivered to
such Person as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct, in each case, until such
time, if any, as the Requisite Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided above. Any successor
Agent appointed by Requisite Lenders hereunder shall be subject to the approval of Borrower, such
approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed;

108

 

provided that such approval shall not be required if an Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent,
such successor Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and
duties of the resigning Agent. Upon the earlier of the acceptance of any appointment as Agent
hereunder by a successor Agent or the effective date of the resigning Agent’s resignation, the
resigning Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents, except that any indemnity rights or other rights in favor of such resigning
Agent shall continue. After any resigning Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this
Section 10 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it
while it was acting as Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

     10.7 Setoff and Sharing of Payments. In addition to any rights now or hereafter
granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of any Event of Default under Sections 9.1(a), (k) or
(l), each Lender is hereby authorized at any time or from time to time, without prior
notice to any Credit Party or to any Person other than Agent, any such notice being hereby
expressly waived, to offset and to appropriate and to apply any and all balances held by it at any
of its offices for the account (other than Excluded Accounts (as defined in the Security
Agreement)) of Borrower or Guarantors (regardless of whether such balances are then due to Borrower
or Guarantors) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by that Lender or that holder
to or for the credit or for the account of Borrower or Guarantors against and on account of any of
the Obligations that are not paid when due; provided that the Lender exercising such offset
rights shall give notice thereof to the affected Credit Party promptly after exercising such
rights. Any Lender exercising a right of setoff or otherwise receiving any payment on account of
the Obligations in excess of its Pro Rata Share thereof shall purchase for cash (and the other
Lenders or holders shall sell) such participations in each such other Lender’s or holder’s Pro Rata
Share of the Obligations as would be necessary to cause such Lender to share the amount so offset
or otherwise received with each other Lender or holder in accordance with their respective Pro Rata
Shares (other than offset rights exercised by any Lender with respect to Sections 2.11,
2.13 or 2.14). Each Credit Party that is Borrower or Guarantor agrees, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, that any Lender may exercise its right to offset with respect to amounts
in excess of its Pro Rata Share of the Obligations owed to it and may sell participations in such
amounts so offset to other Lenders and holders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if all or any
portion of the offset amount or payment otherwise received is thereafter recovered from the Lender
that has exercised the right of offset, the purchase of participations by that Lender shall be
rescinded and the purchase price restored without interest.

     10.8 Return of Payments; Information.

          (a) Reserved.

          (b) Return of Payments.

               (i) If Agent pays an amount to a Lender under this Agreement in the belief or expectation that
a related payment has been or will be received by Agent from Borrower and such related payment is
not received by Agent, then Agent will be entitled to recover such amount from such Lender on
demand without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.

109

 

               (ii) If Agent determines at any time that any amount received by Agent under this Agreement
must be returned to Borrower or paid to any other Person pursuant to any insolvency law or
otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, Agent will not be required to distribute any portion thereof to any Lender. In addition,
each Lender will repay to Agent on demand any portion of such amount that Agent has distributed to
such Lender, together with interest at such rate, if any, as Agent is required to pay to Borrower
or such other Person, without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.

          (c) Dissemination of Information. Agent shall not be required to deliver to any
Lender originals or copies of any documents, instruments, notices, communications or other
information received by Agent from any Credit Party, any Subsidiary, any Lender or any other Person
under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document except (i) as specifically
provided for in this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (ii) as specifically requested from
time to time in writing by any Lender with respect to a specific document, instrument, notice or
other written communication received by and in the possession of Agent at the time of receipt of
such request and then only in accordance with such specific request.

     10.9 Actions in Concert. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding,
each Lender hereby agrees with each other Lender that no Lender shall take any action to protect or
enforce its rights arising out of this Agreement or the Term Notes (including exercising any rights
of setoff) without first obtaining the prior written consent of Agent and Requisite Lenders, it
being the intent of Lenders that any such action to protect or enforce rights under this Agreement
and the Term Notes shall be taken in concert and at the direction or with the consent of Agent or
Requisite Lenders; provided, however, that (i) each Lender shall be entitled to
file a proof of claim in any proceeding under any Insolvency Law to the extent that such Lender
disagrees with Agent’s composite proof of claim filed on behalf of all Lenders, (ii) each Lender
shall be entitled to vote its claim with respect to any plan of reorganization in any proceeding
under any Insolvency Law and (iii) each Lender shall be entitled to pursue its deficiency claim
after liquidation of all or substantially all of the Collateral and application of the proceeds
therefrom.

     10.10 Procedures. Agent is hereby authorized by each Credit Party and each other
Person to whom any Obligations are owed to establish procedures (and to amend such procedures from
time to time) to facilitate administration and servicing of the Term Loans and other matters
incidental thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent is hereby authorized to
establish procedures to make available or deliver, or to accept, notices, documents and similar
items on, by posting to or submitting and/or completion on, E-Systems. The posting, completion
and/or submission by any Credit Party of any communication pursuant to an E-System shall constitute
a representation and warranty by the Credit Parties that any representation, warranty,
certification or other similar statement required by the Loan Documents to be provided, given or
made by a Credit Party in connection with any such communication is true, correct and complete
except as expressly noted in such communication or otherwise on such E-System.

110

 

     10.11 Collateral Matters.

          (a) Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Agent, at its option and in its sole discretion, to
release or evidence such release (or subordinate) any Liens upon any Collateral or any guaranty of
the Obligations, (i) upon the Termination Date; (ii) constituting property being sold or disposed
of if Borrower certifies to Agent that the sale or Disposition is made in compliance with this
Agreement and the Loan Documents (or otherwise is not prohibited) (and Agent may rely conclusively
on any such certificate, without further inquiry) or such sale or Disposition is approved by the
Requisite Lenders; (iii) constituting property in which Credit Parties owned no interest at the
time the Lien was granted or at any time thereafter; or (iv) constituting property leased to Credit
Parties under a lease which has expired or been terminated in a transaction permitted under this
Agreement. Upon request by Agent or Borrower at any time, Lenders will confirm in writing Agent’s
authority to release any Lien upon particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this
Section 10.11.

          (b) Upon receipt by Agent of any authorization required pursuant to Section 10.11(a)
from Lenders of Agent’s authority to release (or subordinate) any Liens upon particular
types or items of Collateral, and upon at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written request by
Borrower, Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by Lenders to) execute such documents
as may be necessary to evidence the release (or subordination) of its Liens upon such Collateral;
provided, however, that (i) Agent shall not be required to execute any such
document on terms which, in Agent’s opinion, would expose Agent to liability or create any
obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or
warranty, and (ii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations
or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of Credit Parties in
respect of) all interests retained by Credit Parties, including the proceeds of any sale, all of
which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.

     10.12 Additional Agents. None of the Lenders or other entities identified on the
facing page of this Agreement as an “arranger” or “bookrunner” shall have any right, power,
obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement or any other Loan Document other
than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Lenders
so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any other Lender.
Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Lenders or other
entities so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in
taking or not taking action hereunder or thereunder.

     10.13 Distribution of Materials to Lenders.

          (a) Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Loan Documents and all reports, notices,
communications and other information or materials provided or delivered by, or on behalf of,
Borrower hereunder (collectively, the “Borrower Materials”) may be disseminated by, or on
behalf of, Agent, and made available to, the Lenders by posting such Borrower Materials on
Intralinks® or a similar E-System (the “Borrower Workspace”). Borrower
authorizes Agent to download copies of its logos from its website and post copies thereof on the
Borrower Workspace. Borrower hereby acknowledges that certain of the Lenders may be “public-side”
Lenders (i.e., Lenders that do not wish to receive MNPI) (each, a “Public Lender”).
Borrower hereby agrees that they will use commercially reasonable efforts to identify that portion
of the Borrower Materials that may be distributed to the Public Lenders and that (i) all

111

 

such Borrower Materials shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a
minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof, (ii)
by marking the Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized Agent and
the Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as either publicly available information or not
material information (although it may be sensitive, confidential and proprietary) with respect to
Borrower, its Subsidiaries or their securities for purposes of United States federal and state
securities laws, (iii) all the Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made
available through a portion of the Borrower Workspace designated “Public Investor”, and (iv) Agent
shall be entitled to treat any of the Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being
suitable only for posting on a portion of the Borrower Workspace not designated “Public Investor.”

          (b) Each Lender represents, warrants, acknowledges and agrees that (i) the Borrower Materials
may contain MNPI concerning Borrower, its Affiliates or their securities, (ii) it has developed
compliance policies and procedures regarding the handling and use of MNPI, and (iii) it shall use
all such in accordance with Section 12.8 and any applicable laws and regulations,
including federal and state securities laws and regulations.

          (c) If any Lender has elected to abstain from receiving MNPI concerning Borrower, its
Affiliates or their securities, such Lender acknowledges that, notwithstanding such election, Agent
and/or Borrower will, from time to time, make available syndicate-information (which may contain
MNPI) as required by the terms of, or in the course of administering, the credit facilities,
including this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, to the credit contact(s) identified for
receipt of such information on the Lender’s administrative questionnaire who are able to receive
and use all syndicate-level information (which may contain MNPI) in accordance with such Lender’s
compliance policies and Contractual Obligations and applicable law, including federal and state
securities laws; provided that if such contact is not so identified in such questionnaire, the
relevant Lender hereby agrees to promptly (and in any event within one Business Day) provide such a
contact to Agent and Borrower upon oral or written request therefor by Agent or Borrower.
Notwithstanding such Lender’s election to abstain from receiving MNPI, such Lender acknowledges
that if such Lender chooses to communicate with Agent, it assumes the risk of receiving MNPI
concerning Borrower, its Affiliates or their securities.

11. ASSIGNMENT AND PARTICIPATIONS; SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS

     11.1 Assignment and Participations.

          (a) Subject to the terms of this Section 11.1, any Lender may make an assignment, or
sell participations in, at any time or times, the Loan Documents, Term Loans, and any Commitment or
any portion thereof or interest therein, including any Lender’s rights, title, interests, remedies,
powers or duties thereunder (other than to an Excluded Party as reasonably determined by Agent and
with Borrower’s consent with respect to any Excluded Party (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed)). Any assignment by a Lender shall be subject to the following
conditions:

112

 

               (i) Assignment Agreement. Any assignment by a Lender shall require (A) the execution
of an assignment agreement (the “Assignment Agreement”) substantially in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit 11.1(a) and otherwise in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
and acknowledged by Agent and (B) the payment of a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 by the
assignor or assignee to Agent (unless such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or
an Approved Fund). Agent shall maintain at one of its offices listed in Section 12.10 (as
may be updated from time to time pursuant to Section 12.10), a copy of each Assignment
Agreement delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the
Lenders, and the Commitments of each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the
“Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and
Borrower, Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register
pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement,
notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower
and the Lenders, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

               (ii) Minimum Amounts.

                    (A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s
Commitment and the Term Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender,
an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

                    (B) in any case not described in paragraph (a)(ii)(A) of this Section, the aggregate
amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Term Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if
the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Term
Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the
Assignment Agreement with respect to such assignment is delivered to Agent or, if “Effective Date”
is specified in the Assignment Agreement, as of the Effective Date) shall not be less than
$1,000,000, and in increments of $1,000,000, unless each of (1) Agent and (2) so long as no Event
of Default under Sections 9.1 (a), (k) or (l) has occurred and is
continuing or any Event of Default under Section 9.1(b) solely with respect to Section
7.10 has occurred and is continuing, Borrower otherwise consent (each such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed, and the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to such
assignment unless Borrower shall have objected thereto by written notice to Agent within ten (10)
Business Days after having received such Assignment Agreement).

               (iii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of
a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with
respect to the Loan or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (iii) shall not
prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among separate
tranches on a non-pro rata basis (if any).

               (iv) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the
extent required by paragraph (a)(ii)(B) of this Section and, in addition:

113

 

                    (A) the consent of Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be
required unless (x) an Event of Default under Sections 9.1 (a), (k), or (l)
has occurred and is continuing or any Event of Default under Section 9.1(b) solely with
respect to Section 7.10 has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or
(y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or (z) such
assignment is to or by MSSF in connection with the initial syndication of the Term Loans;

                    (B) the consent of Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be
required for assignments in respect of the Term Loans to a Person who is not a Lender, an Affiliate
of a Lender or an Approved Fund;

          (b) In the case of an assignment by a Lender under this Section 11.1, the assignee
shall have, to the extent of such assignment, the same rights, benefits and obligations as all
other Lenders hereunder. The assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with
respect to its Commitments or assigned portion thereof from and after the date of such assignment.
Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that any assignment shall give rise to a direct obligation
of Borrower to the assignee and that the assignee shall be considered to be a “Lender”. In all
instances, each Lender’s liability to make Term Loans hereunder shall be several and not joint and
shall be limited to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the applicable Commitment. In the event Agent
or any Lender assigns or otherwise transfers all or any part of the Obligations, Agent or any such
Lender shall so notify Borrower and Borrower shall, upon the request of Agent or such Lender,
execute new Term Notes in exchange for the Term Notes, if any, being assigned. Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of this Section 11.1, (i) any Lender may at any time pledge the
Obligations held by it and such Lender’s rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents
to a Federal Reserve Bank, and any Lender that is an investment fund may assign the Obligations
held by it and such Lender’s rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to another
investment fund managed by the same investment advisor; provided, that no such pledge to a
Federal Reserve Bank shall release such Lender from such Lender’s obligations hereunder or under
any other Loan Document and (ii) no assignment shall be made to any Credit Party or any Subsidiary
of a Credit Party or any Affiliate of a Credit Party.

          (c) Any participation by a Lender of all or any part of its Commitments shall be made with the
understanding that all amounts payable by Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if that Lender
had not sold such participation, and that the holder of any such participation shall not be
entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except actions
directly affecting (i) any reduction in the principal amount of, or interest rate or Fees payable
with respect to, the Term Loan; (ii) any extension of the final maturity date thereof; and
(iii) any release of all or substantially all of the Collateral (other than in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement, the Collateral Documents or the other Loan Documents). Solely for
purposes of Sections 2.11 and 2.14 Borrower acknowledges and agrees that a
participation shall give rise to a direct obligation of Borrower to the participant and the
participant shall be considered to be a “Lender”; provided, that, a participant shall not
be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.13 than the applicable Lender
from whom it received its participation would have been entitled with respect to the participation
sold to such participant (unless the sale of the participation to the participant is made with
Borrower’s prior

114

 

written consent). Except as set forth in the preceding sentence no Borrower or
Credit Party shall have any obligation or duty to any participant. Neither Agent nor any Lender
(other than the Lender selling a participation) shall have any duty to any participant and may
continue to deal solely with the Lender selling a participation as if no such sale had occurred.

          (d) Except as expressly provided in this Section 11.1, no Lender shall, as between
Borrower and that Lender, or Agent and that Lender, be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder
as a result of any sale, assignment, transfer or negotiation of, or granting of participation in,
all or any part of the Term Loans, the Term Notes or other Obligations owed to such Lender.

          (e) Each Credit Party executing this Agreement shall assist any Lender permitted to sell
assignments or participations under this Section 11.1 as reasonably required to enable the
assigning or selling Lender to effect any such assignment or participation, including, the
execution and delivery of any and all reasonable and customary agreements, notes and other
documents and instruments as shall be requested. Each Credit Party executing this Agreement shall
certify the correctness, completeness and accuracy of all descriptions of the Credit Parties and
their respective affairs contained in any selling materials provided by them and all other
information provided by them and included in such materials, except that any Business Plan
delivered by Borrower shall only be certified by Borrower as having been prepared by Borrower in
compliance with the representations contained in Section 4.4(c). Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in the Loan Documents, no Lender may assign or sell a participation to
any Excluded Party.

          (f) Any Lender may furnish information concerning Credit Parties in the possession of such
Lender from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and
participants); provided that such Lender shall obtain from assignees or participants
confidentiality covenants substantially equivalent to those contained in Section 12.8.

          (g) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Lender shall assign or
sell participations in any portion of its Term Loans or Commitments to a potential Lender or
participant, if, as of the date of the proposed assignment or sale, the assignee Lender or
participant would be subject to capital adequacy or similar requirements under Section
2.14(a), increased costs under Section 2.14(b), an inability to fund LIBOR Loans under
Section 2.14(c), or withholding taxes in accordance with Section 2.13(a).

          (h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting
Lender”), may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), identified as such
in writing by the Granting Lender to Agent and Borrower, the option to provide to Borrower all or
any part of any Term Loans that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to
Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a
commitment by any SPC to make the Term Loan; and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option
or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of the Term Loan, the Granting Lender shall be
obligated to make the Term Loans pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of the Term Loans by an
SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if the
Term Loans were made by such Granting Lender. No SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar
payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for

115

 

which shall remain with the Granting
Lender). Any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, Borrower and
Agent and assign all or a portion of its interests in any Term Loans to the Granting Lender or to
any financial institutions (consented to by Borrower and Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit
support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Term Loans and
(ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Term Loans to any
rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guaranty or credit or liquidity
enhancement to such SPC. This Section 11.1(h) may not be amended without the prior written
consent of each Granting Lender, all or any of whose Term Loans are being funded by an SPC at the
time of such amendment. For the avoidance of doubt, the Granting Lender shall for all purposes,
including, without limitation, the approval of any amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan
Document or the obligation to pay any amount otherwise payable by the Granting Lender under the
Loan Documents, continue to be the Lender of record hereunder.

     11.2 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be
binding on and shall inure to the benefit of each Credit Party, Agent, Lender and their respective
successors and assigns (including, in the case of any Credit Party, a debtor-in-possession on
behalf of such Credit Party), except as otherwise provided herein or therein. No Credit Party may
assign, transfer, hypothecate or otherwise convey its rights, benefits, obligations or duties
hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents without the prior express written consent of
Agent and Lenders. Any such purported assignment, transfer, hypothecation or other conveyance by
any Credit Party without the prior express written consent of Agent and Lenders shall be void. The
terms and provisions of this Agreement are for the purpose of defining the relative rights and
obligations of each Credit Party, Agent and Lenders with respect to the transactions contemplated
hereby and no Person shall be a third party beneficiary of any of the terms and provisions of this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

12. MISCELLANEOUS

     12.1 Complete Agreement; Modification of Agreement. This Agreement shall become
effective when it shall have been executed by Borrower, the other Credit Parties signatory hereto,
the Lenders, the Collateral Agent and Agent. Thereafter, it shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of, but only to the benefit of, Borrower, the other Credit Parties party hereto, the
Collateral Agent, Agent, and each Lender, their respective successors and permitted assigns.
Except as expressly provided in any Loan Document, none of Borrower, any other Credit Party, any
Lender, the Collateral Agent or Agent shall have the right to assign any rights or obligations
hereunder or any interest herein. The Loan Documents constitute the complete agreement between the
parties with respect to the subject matter thereof and may not be modified, altered or amended
except as set forth in Section 12.2. Any letter of interest, commitment letter, fee letter
or confidentiality agreement, if any, between any Credit Party, the Collateral Agent and Agent or
any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates, predating this Agreement and relating to a
financing of substantially similar form, purpose or effect shall be superseded by this Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Fee Letter shall survive the execution and delivery of this
Agreement and shall continue to be binding obligations of the parties in the manner and for the
period provided for therein.

116

 

     12.2 Amendments and Waivers.

          (a) Except for actions expressly permitted to be taken by Agent, no amendment, modification,
termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any consent
to any departure by any Credit Party therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same
shall be in writing and signed by Agent and Borrower, and by Requisite Lenders or all affected
Lenders as set forth in Section 12.2(c). Except as set forth in clauses (b) and
(c) below, all such amendments, modifications, terminations or waivers requiring the
consent of any Lenders shall require the written consent of Requisite Lenders.

          (b) No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of or consent with respect to any
provision of this Agreement that waives compliance with the conditions precedent set forth in
Section 3.1 to the making of any Term Loans shall be effective unless the same shall be in
writing and signed by Agent, Lenders and Borrower. Notwithstanding anything contained in this
Agreement to the contrary, no waiver or consent with respect to any Default or any Event of Default
shall be effective for purposes of the conditions precedent to the making of Term Loans unless the
same shall be in writing and signed by Agent, Requisite Lenders and Borrower.

          (c) No amendment, modification, termination or waiver shall, unless in writing and signed by
Agent and each Lender directly affected thereby: (i) increase the principal amount of any Lender’s
Commitment (which action shall be deemed only to affect those Lenders whose Commitments are
increased and may be approved by Requisite Lenders, including those Lenders whose Commitments are
increased); (ii) reduce the principal of, rate of interest on, composition of interest on (i.e.,
cash pay or payment-in-kind) or Fees payable with respect to any Term Loans of any affected Lender
(provided, however, in each case, the waiver of any Default or Event of Default or
the implementation of Default Rate interest shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of
interest or any Fee); (iii) extend any scheduled payment date (other than payment dates of
mandatory prepayments under Section 2.3(b)(i)-(iv)) or final maturity date of the principal
amount of the Term Loans of any Lender; (iv) waive, forgive, defer, extend or postpone any payment
of interest or Fees as to any affected Lender (provided, however, in each case, the
waiver of any Default or Event of Default or the implementation of Default Rate interest shall not
constitute a reduction in the rate of interest or any Fee); (v) release any Guaranty or, except as
otherwise permitted herein or in the other Loan Documents, release (or subordinate the Lien of
Agent in), or permit any Credit Party to sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of
the Term Loan Priority Collateral (which action shall be deemed to directly affect all Lenders);
(vi) change the percentage of the Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the
Term Loans that shall be required for Lenders or any of them to take any action hereunder;
(vii) amend or waive this Section 12.2 or the definitions of the term “Requisite Lenders”
insofar as such definition affects the substance of this Section 12.2; or (viii) amend the
allocation and waterfalls in Section 2.9. Furthermore, no amendment, modification,
termination or waiver affecting the rights or duties of Agent or the Collateral Agent under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any release of any Guaranty or Collateral requiring a
writing signed by all Lenders, shall be effective unless in writing and signed by Agent or the
Collateral Agent, as the case may be, in addition to Lenders required hereinabove to take such
action. Each amendment, modification, termination or waiver shall be effective only in the
specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No amendment, modification,
termination or waiver shall be required for Agent to take additional Collateral pursuant to any
Loan Document. No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of any Note
shall be effective without the written concurrence of the holder of that Note. No notice to or
demand on any

117

 

Credit Party in any case shall entitle such Credit Party or any other Credit Party to
any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Any amendment,
modification, termination, waiver or consent effected in accordance with this Section 12.2
shall be binding upon each holder of the Obligations at the time outstanding and each future holder
of the Obligations.

          (d) If, in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, waiver or termination (a
“Proposed Change”) requiring the consent of all Lenders or all affected Lenders, the
consent of Requisite Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other Lenders whose consent is
required is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is not obtained as described in this
subsection (d) being referred to as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then, with respect to this
subsection (d), so long as Agent is not a Non-Consenting Lender, at Borrower’s request,
Agent or a Person reasonably acceptable to Agent shall have the right with Agent’s consent and in
Agent’s sole discretion (but shall have no obligation) to purchase from any such Non-Consenting
Lenders, and any such Non-Consenting Lenders agree that they shall, upon Agent’s request, sell and
assign to Agent or such Person reasonably acceptable to Agent, all of the Commitments of any such
Non-Consenting Lenders for an amount equal to the principal balance of all Term Loans held by such
Non-Consenting Lenders and all accrued interest and Fees with respect thereto through the date of
sale, such purchase and sale to be consummated pursuant to an executed Assignment Agreement. In
the event that a Non-Consenting Lender does not execute an Assignment Agreement pursuant to
Section 11.1 within five (5) Business Days after receipt by such Non-Consenting Lender of
notice of replacement pursuant to this Section 12.2(d) and presentation to such
Non-Consenting Lender of an Assignment Agreement evidencing an assignment pursuant to this
Section 12.2(d), Borrower shall be entitled (but not obligated) to execute such an
Assignment Agreement on behalf of any such Non-Consenting Lender, and any such Assignment Agreement
so executed by Borrower, the replacement Lender and Agent, shall be effective for purposes of this
Section 12.2(d) and Section 11.1.

          (e) Upon payment in full in cash and performance of all of the Obligations (other than
indemnification Obligations), termination of the Commitments and a release of all claims against
Agent and Lenders, and so long as no suits, actions, proceedings or claims are pending or
threatened against any Indemnified Person asserting any damages, losses or liabilities that are
Indemnified Liabilities, Agent shall deliver to Borrower termination statements, mortgage releases
and other documents necessary or appropriate to evidence the termination of the Liens securing
payment of the Obligations.

          (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated)
with the written consent of the Requisite Lenders, Agent, and Borrower (i) to add one or more
additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to
time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably
in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Term Loans and the accrued
interest and fees in respect thereof and (ii) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such
credit facilities in any determination of the Requisite Lenders.

          (g) In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended with the written
consent of Agent, Borrower and the Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Term Loans (as
defined below) to permit the refinancing of all outstanding Term

118

 

Loans (“Refinanced Term Loans”) with a replacement term loan tranche hereunder (“Replacement Term Loans”);
provided that (i) the aggregate principal amount of such Replacement Term Loans shall not exceed
the aggregate principal amount of such Refinanced Term Loans, (ii) the Applicable Margin for such
Replacement Term Loans shall not be higher than the Applicable Margin for such Refinanced Term
Loans, (iii) the weighted average life to maturity of such Replacement Term Loans shall not be
shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of such Refinanced Term Loans at the time of
such refinancing and (iv) all other terms applicable to such Replacement Term Loans shall be
substantially identical to, or less favorable to the Lenders providing such Replacement Term Loans
than, those applicable to such Refinanced Term Loans, except to the extent necessary to provide for
covenants and other terms applicable to any period after the latest final maturity of the Term
Loans in effect immediately prior to such refinancing.

          (h) Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 12.2, if
Agent and Borrower shall have jointly identified an obvious error or any error or omission of a
technical nature, in each case that is immaterial (as determined by Agent), in any provision of the
Loan Documents, then Agent and Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provisions and such
amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any
Loan Document if the same is not objected to in writing by the Requisite Lenders within ten (10)
Business Days following receipt of notice thereof.

     12.3 Fees and Expenses. Borrower shall reimburse: (i) Agent and the Collateral Agent
for all reasonable documented fees, reasonable documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses
(including the reasonable fees and reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses of all of its
counsel, advisors, consultants and auditors); and (ii) Agent, the Collateral Agent (and, with
respect to clauses (b), (c) and (d) below, all Lenders) for all reasonable
out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses, including the reasonable documented fees, reasonable
documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of counsel or other advisors (including environmental
and management consultants and appraisers), incurred in connection with the negotiation,
preparation and filing and/or recordation of the Loan Documents, and incurred in connection with:

          (a) any amendment, modification or waiver of, consent with respect to, or termination of, any
of the Loan Documents or Related Transactions Documents or advice in connection with the
syndication and administration of the Term Loans made pursuant hereto or its rights hereunder or
thereunder;

          (b) any litigation, contest, dispute, suit, proceeding or action (whether instituted by Agent,
any Lender, any Credit Party or any other Person and whether as a party, witness or otherwise) in
any way relating to the Collateral, any of the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated
thereby or any other agreement to be executed or delivered in connection herewith or therewith,
including any litigation, contest, dispute, suit, case, proceeding or action, and any appeal or
review thereof; in connection with a case commenced by or against any or all of the Credit Parties
or any other Person that may be obligated to Agent by virtue of the Loan Documents; including any
such litigation, contest, dispute, suit, proceeding or action arising in connection with any
work-out or restructuring of the Term Loans during the pendency of one or more Events of Default;
provided that in the case of reimbursement of counsel for Lenders other than Agent, such
reimbursement shall be limited to one counsel for all such

119

 

Lenders; provided,
further, that no Person shall be entitled to reimbursement under this clause (c) in
respect of any litigation, contest, dispute, suit, proceeding or action to the extent any of the
foregoing results from such Person’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct (as
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment);
provided, further, that no Indemnified Person will be indemnified for any such
cost, expense or liability to the extent of any dispute solely among Indemnified Persons other than
claims against Agent or Collateral Agent, in such capacity, in connection with fulfilling any such
roles;

          (c) any attempt to enforce any remedies of Agent against any or all of the Credit Parties or
any other Person that may be obligated to Agent or any Lender by virtue of any of the Loan
Documents, including any such attempt to enforce any such remedies in the course of any work-out or
restructuring of the Term Loans during the pendency of one or more Events of Default;
provided, that in the case of reimbursement of counsel for Lenders other than Agent, such
reimbursement shall be limited to one counsel for all such Lenders;

          (d) any workout or restructuring of the Term Loans upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of one or more Events of Default; and

          (e) efforts to (i) monitor the Term Loans or any of the other Obligations, (ii) evaluate,
observe or assess any of the Credit Parties or their respective affairs, and (iii) verify, protect,
evaluate, assess, appraise, audit, collect, sell, liquidate or otherwise dispose of any of the
Collateral; including, as to each of clauses (a) through (d) above, all reasonable
attorneys’ and other professional and service providers’ reasonable documented fees arising from
such services and other advice, assistance or other representation, including those in connection
with any appellate proceedings, and all reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses, costs,
charges and other fees incurred by such counsel and others in connection with or relating to any of
the events or actions described in this Section 12.3. All amounts under this Section
12.3 shall be payable not later than 20 days after written demand therefore (together with
reasonably detailed supporting documentation submitted to a Financial Officer of Borrower).
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such reasonable documented out-of-pocket
expenses, costs, charges and fees may include: reasonable documented out-of-pocket fees, costs and
expenses of accountants, environmental advisors, appraisers, investment bankers, management,
internal auditors, financial, turnaround and other consultants and paralegals; court costs and
expenses; photocopying and duplication expenses; court reporter fees, costs and expenses; long
distance telephone charges; air express charges; telegram or telecopy charges; secretarial overtime
charges; and expenses for travel, lodging and food paid or incurred in connection with the
performance of such legal or other advisory services.

     12.4 No Waiver. Agent’s or any Lender’s failure, at any time or times, to require
strict performance by the Credit Parties of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document shall not waive, affect or diminish any right of Agent or such Lender thereafter to demand
strict compliance and performance herewith or therewith. Any suspension or waiver of an Event of
Default shall not suspend, waive or affect any other Event of Default whether the same is prior or
subsequent thereto and whether the same or of a different type. Subject to the provisions of
Section 12.2, none of the undertakings, agreements, warranties, covenants and
representations of any Credit Party contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents
and no Default or Event of Default by any Credit Party shall be deemed to have been

120

 

suspended or
waived by Agent or any Lender, unless such waiver or suspension is by an instrument in writing
signed by an officer of or other authorized employee of Agent and the applicable Requisite Lenders,
and directed to Borrower specifying such suspension or waiver.

     12.5 Remedies. Agent’s and Lenders’ rights and remedies under this Agreement shall be
cumulative and nonexclusive of any other rights and remedies that Agent or any Lender may have
under any other agreement, including the other Loan Documents, by operation of law or otherwise.
Recourse to the Collateral shall not be required.

     12.6 Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable
law, but if any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be prohibited by or
invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such
prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining
provisions of this Agreement or such other Loan Document.

     12.7 Conflict of Terms. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or any of the
other Loan Documents by specific reference to the applicable provisions of this Agreement, and
subject to the immediately following sentence, if any provision contained in this Agreement
conflicts with any provision in any of the other Loan Documents, the provision contained in this
Agreement shall govern and control.

     12.8 Confidentiality. Each Lender, Collateral Agent and Agent agrees to use all
reasonable efforts to maintain, in accordance with its customary practices, the confidentiality of
information obtained by it pursuant to any Loan Document and designated in writing by any Credit
Party as confidential, except that such information may be disclosed (i) with Borrower’s consent,
(ii) to Related Persons of such Lender, Collateral Agent or Agent, as the case may be, that are
advised of the confidential nature of such information and are instructed to keep such information
confidential in accordance with the terms hereof, (iii) to the extent such information presently is
or hereafter becomes (A) publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section
12.8 or (B) available to such Lender, Collateral Agent or Agent or any of their Related
Persons, as the case may be, from a source (other than any Credit Party) not known by them to be
subject to disclosure restrictions, (iv) to the extent disclosure is required by applicable law or
other legal process or requested or demanded by any Governmental Authority (in which case Agent
shall notify Borrower to the extent not prohibited by law or legal process), (v) to the extent
necessary or customary for inclusion in league table measurements, (vi) (A) to the National
Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization, any examiner or any nationally
recognized rating agency or (B) otherwise to the extent consisting of general portfolio information
that does not identify Credit Parties, (vii) other than to Excluded Parties, to current or
prospective assignees, SPVs (including the investors or prospective investors therein) or
participants, direct or contractual counterparties to any Swap Contracts and to their respective
Related Persons, in each case to the extent such assignees, investors, participants, counterparties
or Related Persons agree to be bound by provisions substantially similar to the provisions of this
Section 12.8 (and such Person may disclose information to their respective Related Persons in
accordance with clause (ii) above), (viii) to any other party hereto, and (ix) in connection with
the exercise or enforcement of any right or remedy under any Loan Document, in connection with any
litigation or other proceeding to which such Lender, Collateral Agent or Agent or any

121

 

of their
Related Persons is a party or bound, or to the extent necessary to respond to public statements or
disclosures by Credit Parties or their Related Persons referring to a Lender, Collateral Agent or
Agent or any of their Related Persons. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this
Section 12.8 and those of any Loan Document, the terms of this Section 12.8 shall
govern.

     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any other written or oral
understanding or agreement to which the parties hereto are parties or by which they are bound, the
parties acknowledge and agree that (i) any obligations of confidentiality contained herein and
therein do not apply and have not applied to the federal tax treatment and federal tax structure of
the Term Loans (the “Transactions”) (and any related transactions or arrangements) from the
commencement of discussions between the parties, and (ii) each party (and each of its employees,
representatives or other agents) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any
kind, the federal tax treatment and federal tax structure of the Transactions and all materials of
any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to such party relating to
such tax treatment and tax structure. The preceding sentence is intended to cause the Transactions
to be treated as not having been offered under conditions of confidentiality for purposes of
Section 1.6011-4(b)(3) (or any successor provision) of the Treasury Regulations promulgated under
Section 6011 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and shall be construed in a manner
consistent with such purpose. Subject to the proviso with respect to disclosure in the first
sentence of this paragraph, each party hereto acknowledges that it has no proprietary or exclusive
rights to the federal tax structure of the Transactions or any federal tax matter or federal tax
idea related to the Transactions.

     12.9 GOVERNING LAW. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN ANY OF THE LOAN
DOCUMENTS, IN ALL RESPECTS, INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE, THE
LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE OBLIGATIONS SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND PERFORMED IN THAT
STATE AND ANY APPLICABLE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY CONSENTS
AND AGREES THAT THE STATE OR FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN, CITY OF NEW YORK,
NEW YORK SHALL HAVE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN THE
CREDIT PARTIES, AGENT AND LENDERS PERTAINING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS
RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF
THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS; PROVIDED, THAT AGENT, LENDERS AND THE CREDIT PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE
THAT ANY APPEALS FROM THOSE COURTS MAY HAVE TO BE HEARD BY A COURT LOCATED OUTSIDE OF NEW YORK
COUNTY; PROVIDED, FURTHER, THAT NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED OR
OPERATE TO PRECLUDE AGENT FROM BRINGING SUIT OR TAKING OTHER LEGAL ACTION IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION
TO REALIZE ON THE COLLATERAL OR ANY OTHER SECURITY FOR THE OBLIGATIONS, OR TO ENFORCE A JUDGMENT OR
OTHER COURT ORDER IN FAVOR OF AGENT. EACH CREDIT PARTY EXPRESSLY SUBMITS AND CONSENTS IN ADVANCE
TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR SUIT COMMENCED IN

122

 

ANY SUCH COURT, AND EACH CREDIT PARTY
HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT SUCH CREDIT PARTY MAY HAVE BASED UPON LACK OF PERSONAL
JURISDICTION, IMPROPER VENUE OR FORUM NON CONVENIENS AND HEREBY CONSENTS TO
THE GRANTING OF SUCH LEGAL OR EQUITABLE RELIEF AS IS DEEMED APPROPRIATE BY SUCH COURT. EACH PARTY
HERETO HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF THE SUMMONS, COMPLAINT AND OTHER PROCESS ISSUED IN ANY
SUCH ACTION OR SUIT AND AGREES THAT SERVICE OF SUCH SUMMONS, COMPLAINTS AND OTHER PROCESS MAY BE
MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL ADDRESSED TO SUCH CREDIT PARTY AT THE ADDRESS SET FORTH IN
SECTION 12.10 AND THAT SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE DEEMED COMPLETED UPON THE EARLIER OF SUCH
CREDIT PARTY’S ACTUAL RECEIPT THEREOF OR THREE (3) DAYS AFTER DEPOSIT IN THE UNITED STATES MAILS,
PROPER POSTAGE PREPAID.

     12.10 Notices.

     (a) Addresses. All notices, demands, requests, directions and other communications
required or expressly authorized to be made by this Agreement shall, whether or not specified to be

               (b) Effectiveness.

                    (i) All communications described in clause (a) above and all other notices, demands, requests
and other communications made in connection with this Agreement shall be effective and be deemed to
have been received (i) if delivered by hand, upon personal delivery, (ii) if delivered by overnight
courier service, one (1) Business Day after delivery to such courier service, (iii) if delivered by
mail, three (3) Business Days after deposit in the mail, (iv) if delivered by facsimile or
electronic mail (other than to post to an E-System pursuant to clause (a) above) upon sender’s
receipt of confirmation of proper transmission and (v) if delivered by posting to any E-System, on
the later of the date of such posting in an appropriate location and the date access to such
posting is given to the recipient thereof in accordance with the standard procedures applicable to
such E-System. Failure or delay in delivering copies of any notice, demand, request, consent,
approval, declaration or other communication to any Person (other than Borrower or Agent)
designated in Section 12.10 to receive copies shall in no way adversely affect the
effectiveness of such notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other
communication. The giving of any notice required hereunder may be waived in writing by the party
entitled to receive such notice.

                    (ii) The posting, completion and/or submission by any Credit Party of any communication
pursuant to an E System shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Credit Parties that
any representation, warranty, certification or other similar statement required by the Loan
Documents to be provided, given or made by a Credit Party in connection with any

124

 

such communication
is true, correct and complete (to the extent required under the Loan Documents) except as expressly
noted in such communication or E-System.

          (c) Each Lender shall notify Agent in writing of any changes in the address to which notices
to such Lender should be directed, of addresses of its lending office, of payment instructions in
respect of all payments to be made to it hereunder and of such other administrative information as
Agent shall reasonably request.

     12.11 Section Titles. The Section titles and Table of Contents contained in this
Agreement are and shall be without substantive meaning or content of any kind whatsoever and are
not a part of the agreement between the parties hereto.

     12.12 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of separate
counterparts and by different parties in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed
shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same
agreement. Signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a
single counterpart. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile
transmission or Electronic Transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed
counterpart hereof.

     12.13 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX
FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND EXPERT
PERSON AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY (RATHER THAN ARBITRATION
RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE
LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF
ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES HERETO KNOWINGLY WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR
PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, AMONG
AGENT, LENDERS AND ANY CREDIT PARTY ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED TO, OR INCIDENTAL TO
THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED AMONG THEM IN CONNECTION WITH, THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO.

     12.14 Press Releases and Related Matters. Each Credit Party executing this Agreement
agrees that neither it nor its Affiliates will in the future issue any press releases or other
public disclosure using the name of MSSF or its affiliates or referring to this Agreement, the
other Loan Documents or the Related Transactions Documents without at least two (2) Business Days’
prior notice to MSSF and without the prior written consent of MSSF unless (and only to the extent
that) such Credit Party or Affiliate is required to do so under law and then, in any event, such
Credit Party or Affiliate will consult with MSSF before issuing such press release or other public
disclosure. Each Credit Party consents to the publication by Agent or any Lender of advertising
material relating to the financing transactions contemplated by this Agreement using Borrower’s
name, product photographs, logo or trademark. Agent reserves the right to provide to industry

125

 

trade organizations information necessary and customary for inclusion in league table measurements.

     12.15 Reinstatement. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and
continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against Borrower for liquidation or
reorganization, should Borrower become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of any
creditor or creditors or should a receiver, interim receiver, receiver and manager or trustee be
appointed for all or any significant part of Borrower’s assets, and shall continue to be effective
or to be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Obligations,
or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must
otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Obligations, whether as a “voidable
preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had
not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored
or returned, the Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and
not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

     12.16 Advice of Counsel. Each of the parties represents to each other party hereto
that it has discussed this Agreement and, specifically, the provisions of Sections 12.9 and
12.13, with its counsel.

     12.17 No Strict Construction. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the
negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or
interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties
hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by
virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement.

     12.18 Patriot Act Notice. Each Lender and Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any
Lender) hereby notifies the Credit Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act,
such Lender and Agent may be required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the
Credit Parties, which information includes the name and address of the Credit Parties and other
information that will allow such Lender and Agent, as the case may be, to identify the Credit
Parties in accordance with the Patriot Act.

     12.19 Currency Equivalency Generally. For the purposes of making valuations or
computations under this Agreement (but not for purposes of the preparation of any financial
statements delivered pursuant hereto), and in particular, without limitation, for purposes of
valuations or computations under Sections 2.3(b), 4, 6, 7 and
9, unless expressly provided otherwise, where a reference is made to a dollar amount the
amount is to be considered as the amount in Dollars and, therefor, each other currency shall be
converted into the equivalent amount thereof in Dollars in accordance with GAAP.

     12.20 Judgment Currency.

          (a) If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against any Credit Party in any
court in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into any other currency (such other
currency being hereinafter in this Section 12.20 referred to as the “Judgment
Currency”) an amount due under any Loan Document in any currency (the “Obligation

126

 

Currency”) other than the Judgment Currency, the conversion shall be made at the rate of
exchange prevailing on the Business Day immediately preceding (i) the date of actual payment of the
amount due, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any jurisdiction that will give effect
to such conversion being made on such earlier date, or (ii) the date on which the judgment is
given, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any other jurisdiction (the applicable date
as of which such conversion is made pursuant to this Section 12.20 being hereinafter in
this Section 12.20 referred to as the “Judgment Conversion Date”).

          (b) If, in the case of any proceeding in the court of any jurisdiction referred to in
Section 12.20(a), there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment
Conversion Date and the date of actual receipt for value of the amount due, the applicable Credit
Party shall pay such additional amount (if any, but in any event not a lesser amount) as may be
necessary to ensure that the amount actually received in the Judgment Currency, when converted at
the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Obligation
Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of the Judgment Currency stipulated in the
judgment or judicial order at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Conversion Date. Any
amount due from a Credit Party under this Section 12.20(b) shall be due as a separate debt
and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other amounts due under or in respect
of any of the Loan Documents.

          (c) The term “rate of exchange” in this Section 12.20 means the rate of exchange at
which Agent would, on the relevant date at or about 1:00 p.m. (New York time), be prepared to sell
the Obligation Currency against the Judgment Currency.

     12.21 Electronic Transmissions.

          (a) Authorization. Subject to the provisions of Section 12.10(a), each of
Agent, Lenders, each Credit Party and each of their Related Persons, is authorized (but not
required) to transmit, post or otherwise make or communicate, in its sole discretion, Electronic
Transmissions in connection with any Loan Document and the transactions contemplated therein.
Borrower and each Lender party hereto acknowledges and agrees that the use of Electronic
Transmissions is not necessarily secure and that there are risks associated with such use,
including risks of interception, disclosure and abuse and each indicates it assumes and accepts
such risks by hereby authorizing the use of Electronic Transmissions.

          (b) Signatures. Subject to the provisions of Section 12.10(a), (i)(A) no
posting to any E-System shall be denied legal effect merely because it is made electronically,
(B) each E-Signature on any such posting shall be deemed sufficient to satisfy any requirement for
a “signature” and (C) each such posting shall be deemed sufficient to satisfy any requirement for a
“writing”, in each case including pursuant to any Loan Document, any applicable provision of any
Code, the federal Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, the Electronic Signatures in Global and
National Commerce Act and any substantive or procedural applicable law governing such subject
matter, (ii) each such posting that is not readily capable of bearing either a signature or a
reproduction of a signature may be signed, and shall be deemed signed, by attaching to, or
logically associating with such posting, an E-Signature, upon which Agent, each Lender and each
Credit Party may rely and assume the authenticity thereof, (iii) each such posting containing a
signature, a reproduction of a signature or an E-Signature shall, for all intents and purposes,

127

 

have the same effect and weight as a signed paper original and (iv) each party hereto or
beneficiary hereto agrees not to contest the validity or enforceability of any posting on any
E-System or E-Signature on any such posting under the provisions of any applicable law requiring
certain documents to be in writing or signed; provided, however, that nothing
herein shall limit such party’s or beneficiary’s right to contest whether any posting to any
E-System or E-Signature has been altered after transmission.

          (c) Separate Agreements. All uses of an E-System shall be governed by and subject to,
in addition to Section 12.10 and this Section 12.21, the separate terms, conditions
and privacy policy posted or referenced in such E-System (or such terms, conditions and privacy
policy as may be updated from time to time, including on such E-System) and related Contractual
Obligations executed by Agent and Credit Parties in connection with the use of such E-System.

          (d) LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. ALL E-SYSTEMS AND ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSIONS SHALL BE
PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. NONE OF AGENT, ANY LENDER OR ANY OF THEIR RELATED PERSONS
