Trustee or an Affiliate of the Trustee;

acquiring the Exchange Securities in the ordinary course of business and has no arrangement

5

 

or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of the Exchange
Securities; and

               (vii) comply in all material respects with all applicable laws.

          (d) As soon as practicable after the close of the Registered Exchange Offer, the Company and
the Guarantors shall:

the Registered Exchange Offer on or prior to its expiration;

               (ii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee for cancellation in accordance with
Section 4(q) all Securities so accepted for exchange; and

               (iii) cause the Trustee promptly to authenticate and deliver to each Holder of Securities a
principal amount of Exchange Securities equal to the principal amount of the Securities of such
Holder so accepted for exchange.

          (e) Each Holder hereby acknowledges and agrees that any Broker-Dealer and any such Holder
using the Registered Exchange Offer to participate in a distribution of the Exchange Securities (x)
could not under Commission policy as in effect on the date of this Agreement rely on the position
of the Commission in Exxon Capital Holdings Corporation (pub. avail. May 13, 1988) and
Morgan Stanley and Co., Inc. (pub. avail. June 5, 1991), as interpreted in the Commission’s
letter to Shearman & Sterling LLP dated July 2, 1993 and similar no-action letters; and (y) must
comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Act in connection with any
secondary resale transaction, which must be covered by an effective registration statement
containing the selling security holder information required by Item 507 or 508, as applicable, of
Regulation S-K under the Act if the resales are of Exchange Securities obtained by such Holder in
exchange for Securities acquired by such Holder directly from the Company, the Guarantors or one of
their respective Affiliates. Accordingly, each Holder participating in the Registered Exchange
Offer shall be required to represent to the Company and the Guarantors that, at the time of the
consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer:

               (i) any Exchange Securities received by such Holder will be acquired in the ordinary course of
business;

               (ii) such Holder will have no arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in
the distribution of the Securities or the Exchange Securities within the meaning of the Act; and

               (iii) such Holder is not an Affiliate of the Company or any of the Guarantors.

          (f) If any Initial Purchaser determines that it is prohibited by law or Commission policy from
participating in the Registered Exchange Offer with respect to the exchange of Securities
constituting any portion of an unsold allotment, at the request of such Initial Purchaser, the
Company and the Guarantors shall issue and deliver to the person purchasing Securities registered
under a Shelf Registration Statement as contemplated by Section

6

 

3 hereof from such Initial Purchaser, in exchange for such Securities, a like principal amount of
Exchange Securities.

     3. Shelf Registration. (a) If (i) due to any change in law or applicable
interpretations thereof by the Commission’s staff, the Company determines upon advice of its
outside counsel that it is not permitted to effect the Registered Exchange Offer as contemplated by
Section 2 hereof; (ii) the Registered Exchange Offer has not been consummated by the Exchange Date;
or (iii) any Holder notifies the Company within 30 days following the consummation of the
Registered Exchange Offer that (A) it is prohibited by law or Commission policy from participating
in the Registered Exchange Offer; (B) it may not resell the Exchange Securities acquired by it in
the Registered Exchange Offer to the public without delivering a prospectus and the prospectus
contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is not appropriate or available for such
resales; or (C) it is a broker-dealer and owns Securities acquired directly from the Company or an
affiliate of the Company, then the Company and the Guarantors shall effect a Shelf Registration
Statement in accordance with subsection (b) below.

          (b) (i) The Company and the Guarantors shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to
file with the Commission within 30 days after such filing obligation arises, but in no event
earlier than the 210th calendar day after the Closing Date, and shall use their respective
reasonable best efforts to cause to be declared effective under the Act within 75 days of such
filing, pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section 3, a Shelf Registration Statement relating to
the offer and sale of the Securities or the Exchange Securities, as applicable, by the Holders
thereof from time to time in accordance with the methods of distribution elected by such Holders
and set forth in such Shelf Registration Statement; provided, however, that no
Holder shall be entitled to have the Securities held by it covered by such Shelf Registration
Statement or be entitled to use a Prospectus forming a part thereof unless such Holder agrees in
writing to be bound by all of the provisions of this Agreement applicable to such Holder and has
returned to the Company a completed and signed selling securityholder questionnaire in reasonable
and customary form by the reasonable deadline for responses set forth therein; and
provided, further, that with respect to Exchange Securities received by an Initial
Purchaser in exchange for Securities constituting any portion of an unsold allotment, the Company
and the Guarantors may, if permitted by current interpretations by the Commission’s staff, file a
post-effective amendment to the Exchange Offer Registration Statement containing the information
required by Item 507 or 508 of Regulation S-K, as applicable, in satisfaction of their obligations
under this subsection with respect thereto, and any such Exchange Offer Registration Statement, as
so amended, shall be referred to herein as, and governed by the provisions herein applicable to, a
Shelf Registration Statement.

          (ii) The Company and the Guarantors shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to keep
the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective, supplemented and amended as required by
the Act, in order to permit the Prospectus forming part thereof to be usable by Holders for a
period (the “Shelf Registration Period”) from the date the Shelf Registration Statement is declared
effective by the Commission until the first to occur of (A) the date upon which all the Securities
or Exchange Securities, as applicable, covered by the Shelf Registration Statement have been sold
pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, become Freely Tradable or cease to be outstanding or
(B) two years after the Closing Date.

7

 

          (iii) Subject to the provisions of Section 4 hereof, the Company and the Guarantors shall
cause the Shelf Registration Statement and the related Prospectus and any amendment or supplement
thereto, as of the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement or such amendment or
supplement, (A) to comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable requirements of
the Act; and (B) not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein (in the
case of the Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not
misleading.

therein (in the case of the Prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made)
not misleading.

          (c) The Company and the Guarantors shall advise the Initial Purchasers, the Holders of

such advice in writing (which notice pursuant to clauses (ii)-(v) hereof shall be accompanied by an
instruction to suspend the use of the Prospectus until the Company and the Guarantors shall have
remedied the basis for such suspension):

               (v) at a time when a Prospectus is required to be delivered under the Act, of the happening of
any event that requires any change in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus so that, as of
such date, they (A) do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact and (B) do not omit to
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in
the case of the Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not
misleading.

          (d) The Company and the Guarantors shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to
prevent the issuance of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the

consent to the use of the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling
Holders of Securities in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities covered by the
Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, included in the Shelf Registration Statement

Exchanging Dealer and each other person required to deliver a Prospectus during the Exchange Offer
Registration Period, without charge, as many copies of the Prospectus included in such Exchange
Offer Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto as any such person may
reasonably request. Subject to the provisions of this Section 4, the Company and the Guarantors
consent to the use of the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by any Initial
Purchaser, any Exchanging Dealer and any such other person that may be required to deliver a
Prospectus following the Registered Exchange Offer in connection with the offering and sale of the
Exchange Securities covered by the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, included in
the Exchange Offer Registration Statement (in each case, if such Initial Purchaser, Exchanging
Dealer or other person is properly named in such Prospectus, as amended and supplemented), except
during any suspension period referred to in Section 4(c) above or Section 4(k) below.

          (i) Prior to the Registered Exchange Offer or any other offering of Securities pursuant to any

qualification of the Securities or the Exchange Securities for sale under the laws of such
jurisdictions as any Holder shall reasonably request and shall maintain such qualification in
effect so long as required; provided that in no event shall the Company or any Guarantor be
obligated to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or to
take any action that would subject it to service of process in suits, other than those arising out
of the Initial Placement, the Registered Exchange Offer or any offering pursuant to a Shelf
Registration Statement, in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject, or to subject
itself to taxation in any jurisdiction where it is not now subject.

          (j) The Company and the Guarantors shall cooperate with the Holders of Securities to
facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Exchange Securities or
Securities to be issued or sold pursuant to any Registration Statement free of any restrictive
legends and in such denominations and registered in such names as Holders may request.

          (k) (i) Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by subsections (c)(ii) through (v)
above or subsection (k)(ii) below, the Company and the Guarantors shall promptly

10

 

(or within the time period provided for by clause (ii) hereof, if applicable) prepare and file
a post-effective amendment to the applicable Registration Statement or an amendment or supplement
to the related Prospectus or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to
the Initial Purchasers of the securities included therein, the Prospectus will not include an
untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which
they were made, not misleading. In such circumstances, the Exchange Offer Registration Period and
the Shelf Registration Period shall be extended by the number of days from and including the date
of the giving of a notice of suspension pursuant to Section 4(c) or Section 4(k)(ii), as
applicable, to and including the date when the Initial Purchasers, the Holders of the Securities
covered by any Shelf Registration Statement and any Known Exchanging Dealer shall have received
such amended or supplemented Prospectus pursuant to this Section or shall have been advised in
writing by the Company and the Guarantors that the Prospectus may be used.

(ii) Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by subsections (c)(ii) through (v) above, or the
occurrence or existence of any pending corporate development or any other material event that, in
the reasonable judgment of NII Holdings, Inc. (the “Parent”), makes it appropriate to suspend the
availability of a Registration Statement and the related Prospectus, the Parent shall give notice
(without notice of the nature or details of such events) to the Holders of the Securities covered
by any Shelf Registration Statement, the Initial Purchasers and any Known Exchanging Dealer, as
applicable, that the Registration Statement is suspended and, upon actual receipt of any such
notice, each such Holder, Initial Purchaser and Exchanging Dealer, as applicable, agrees not to
sell any Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement until such Holder, Initial
Purchaser or Exchanging Dealer, as applicable, shall have received such amended or supplemented
Prospectus pursuant to this Section or have been advised in writing by the Parent that the
Prospectus may be used. The period during which the availability of the Shelf Registration and any
Prospectus is suspended (the “Deferral Period”) shall not exceed 45 days in any three-month period
or 90 days in any twelve-month period.

          (l) The Company and the Guarantors shall comply in all material respects with all applicable
rules and regulations of the Commission and shall make generally available to its security holders
an earnings statement satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Act as soon as practicable
after the effective date of the applicable Registration Statement.

          (m) The Company and the Guarantors may require each Holder of Registrable Securities to be
sold pursuant to any Registration Statement to furnish to the Company and the Guarantors such
information regarding the Holder and the distribution of such securities as the Company and the
Guarantors may from time to time reasonably require for inclusion in such Registration Statement,
including such information requested or required by the Commission. The Company and the Guarantors
may exclude from such Registration Statement the Registrable Securities of any Holder that fails to
furnish such information within a reasonable time after such request. Each Holder as to which
Registrable Securities are being included in a Registration Statement agrees to furnish to the
Company all information with respect to such Holder necessary to make any information previously
furnished to the Company by such Holder pursuant to this Section 4(m) or otherwise not materially
misleading.

11

 

          (n) In the case of any Shelf Registration Statement, the Company and the Guarantors shall
enter into reasonable and customary agreements (including, if requested, an underwriting agreement
in reasonable and customary form) and take all other reasonably appropriate actions in order to
expedite or facilitate the registration or the disposition of the Securities, and in connection
therewith, if an underwriting agreement is entered into, cause the same to contain indemnification
provisions and procedures no less favorable than those set forth in Section 6 hereof.

          (o) In the case of any Shelf Registration Statement, the Company and the Guarantors shall, if
requested:

               (i) subject to the execution of confidentiality agreements reasonably satisfactory to the
Parent, upon reasonable prior written notice and during regular business hours, make reasonably
available for inspection by the Holders of Securities to be registered thereunder, any Underwriter
participating in any disposition pursuant to such Registration Statement, and any attorney,
accountant or other agent retained by the Holders or any such Underwriter, at the Parent’s
principal place of business, all relevant financial and other records and pertinent corporate
documents of the Parent and its subsidiaries reasonably requested by the Holders or any such
Underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with any such Registration Statement as is
customary for similar due diligence examinations; provided, however, that with
respect to any attorney engaged by the Holders or any Underwriter, the foregoing inspection and
information gathering shall be coordinated by one counsel designated by the Holders and one counsel
designated by the Underwriter or Underwriters;

               (ii) subject to the execution of confidentiality agreements reasonably satisfactory to the
Parent, upon reasonable prior written notice and during regular business hours, cause the Parent’s
officers, employees, accountants and auditors to supply, at the Parent’s principal place of
business, all relevant information reasonably requested by the Holders or any such Underwriter,
attorney, accountant or agent in connection with any such Registration Statement as is customary
for similar due diligence examinations; provided, however, that with respect to any
attorney engaged by the Holders or any Underwriter, the foregoing inspection and information
gathering shall be coordinated by one counsel designated by the Holders and one counsel designated
by the Underwriter or Underwriters;

               (iii) in connection with an underwritten offering pursuant to such Shelf Registration
Statement, make such representations and warranties to the Underwriters, in form, substance and
scope as are reasonably and customarily made by issuers to underwriters in primary underwritten
offerings and covering matters including, but not limited to, those set forth in the Purchase
Agreement;

               (iv) in connection with an underwritten offering pursuant to such Shelf Registration
Statement, use reasonable best efforts to obtain opinions of counsel to the Company and the
Guarantors and updates thereof (which counsel and opinions (in form, scope and substance) shall be
reasonably satisfactory to the Managing Underwriters, if any) addressed to the Underwriters,
covering such matters concerning the Company and the Guarantors as are customarily covered in
opinions requested in underwritten offerings and such other matters as may be reasonably requested
by such Underwriters;

12

 

               (v) in connection with an underwritten public offering pursuant to such Shelf Registration
Statement, use reasonable best efforts to obtain “comfort” letters and updates thereof from the
independent certified public accountants of the Parent (and, if necessary, any other independent
certified public accountants of any subsidiary of the Parent or of any business acquired by the
Parent for which financial statements and financial data are, or are required to be, included in
the Registration Statement), addressed to the Underwriters, in customary form reasonably acceptable
to such independent certified public accountants and covering matters of the type customarily
covered in “comfort” letters in connection with primary underwritten offerings; and

               (vi) deliver such documents and certificates as may be reasonably requested by the Managing
Underwriters, including those to evidence compliance with Section 4(k) and with any customary
conditions contained in the underwriting agreement or any other customary agreement entered into by
the Company in connection therewith.

The actions set forth in clauses (iii), (iv), (v) and (vi) of this paragraph (o) shall be performed
at each closing under any underwriting or similar customary agreement as and to the extent required
thereunder.

          (p) In the case of any Exchange Offer Registration Statement, the Company and the Guarantors
shall, if requested by an Initial Purchaser, or by a Broker-Dealer that holds Securities that were
acquired as a result of market making or other trading activities:

               (i) subject to the execution of confidentiality agreements reasonably satisfactory to the
Parent, upon reasonable prior written notice and during regular business hours, make reasonably
available for inspection by the requesting party, and any attorney, accountant or other agent
retained by the requesting party, at the Parent’s principal place of business, all relevant
financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Parent and its
subsidiaries reasonably requested by the requesting party or any such attorney, accountant or agent
in connection with any such Registration Statement as is customary for similar due diligence
examinations; and

               (ii) subject to the execution of confidentiality agreements reasonably satisfactory to the
Parent, upon reasonable prior written notice and during regular business hours, cause the Parent’s
officers, employees, accountants and auditors to supply, at the Parent’s principal place of
business, all relevant information reasonably requested by the requesting party, and any attorney,
accountant or other agent retained by the requesting party in connection with any such Registration
Statement as is customary for similar due diligence examinations.

          (q) If a Registered Exchange Offer is to be consummated, upon delivery of the Securities by
Holders to the Company (or to such other person as directed by the Company) in exchange for the
Exchange Securities, the Company and the Guarantors shall mark, or caused to be marked, on the
Securities so exchanged that such Securities are being cancelled in exchange for the Exchange
Securities. In no event shall the Securities be marked as paid or otherwise satisfied.

13

 

          (r) In the event that any Broker-Dealer shall underwrite any Securities or participate as a
member of an underwriting syndicate or selling group or “assist in the distribution” (within the
meaning of the FINRA Rules) thereof, whether as a Holder of such Securities or as an Underwriter, a
placement or sales agent or a broker or dealer in respect thereof, or otherwise, the Company and
the Guarantors shall provide reasonable assistance to such Broker-Dealer in making filings in
accordance with the FINRA Rules.

          (s) The Company and the Guarantors shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to take
all other steps necessary to effect the registration of the Securities or the Exchange Securities,
as the case may be, covered by a Registration Statement.

     5. Registration Expenses. The Company and the Guarantors shall bear all expenses
incurred in connection with the performance of their obligations under Sections 2, 3 and 4 hereof
and, in the event of any Shelf Registration Statement, will reimburse the Holders for the
reasonable fees and disbursements of one firm of counsel (which shall initially be Shearman &
Sterling LLP, but which may be another nationally recognized law firm experienced in securities
matters designated by the Majority Holders) in connection with the preparation, filing and
effectiveness of such Shelf Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holders of
the Securities or Exchange Securities being registered shall pay all agency fees and commissions
and underwriting discounts, commissions and costs attributable to the sale of such Registrable
Securities and the fees and disbursements of any counsel or other advisors or experts retained by
or on behalf of such Holders (severally or jointly), other than the counsel specifically referred
to above.

     6. Indemnification and Contribution. (a) The Company and the Guarantors, jointly and
severally, agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder of Securities or Exchange Securities,
as the case may be, covered by any Registration Statement, each Initial Purchaser and, with respect
to any Prospectus delivery as contemplated in Section 4(h) hereof, each Exchanging Dealer, the
directors, officers, employees, Affiliates and agents of each such Holder, Initial Purchaser or
Exchanging Dealer and each person who controls any such Holder, Initial Purchaser or Exchanging
Dealer within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against
any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any of them
may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or
regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or
actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement as originally filed or in any
amendment thereof, or in any preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, or in any amendment thereof
or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state
therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein
(in the case of any preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances
under which they were made) not misleading, and agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, as
incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with
investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided,
however, that the Company and any Guarantor will not be liable in any such case to the
extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in
reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to

14

 

the Company or any Guarantor by or on behalf of the party claiming indemnification
specifically for inclusion therein. This indemnity agreement shall be in addition to any liability
that the Company and any Guarantor may otherwise have.

     The Company and the Guarantors also, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify as provided in
this Section 6(a) or contribute as provided in Section 6(d) hereof to Losses of each Underwriter,
if any, of Securities or Exchange Securities, as the case may be, registered under a Shelf
Registration Statement, their directors, officers, employees, Affiliates and agents and each person
who controls such Underwriter on substantially the same basis as that of the indemnification of the
Initial Purchasers and the selling Holders provided in this Section 6(a) and shall, if requested by
any Holder, enter into an underwriting agreement reflecting such agreement, as provided in Section
4(n) hereof.

     (b) Each Holder of securities covered by a Registration Statement (including each Initial
Purchaser as a Holder, in such capacity) severally and not jointly agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless the Company and the Guarantors, each of their respective directors, officers, employees,
Affiliates and agents and each person who controls the Company or any Guarantor within the meaning
of either the Act or the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the
Company and the Guarantors to each such Holder, but only with reference to written information
relating to such Holder furnished to the Company or any Guarantor by or on behalf of such Holder
specifically for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity. This indemnity
agreement will be in addition to any liability that any such Holder may otherwise have.

     (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 6 or notice of the
commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be
made against the indemnifying party under this Section, notify the indemnifying party in writing of
the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve
it from liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent such failure results in
the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses; and (ii) will not, in
any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than
the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above. The indemnifying party
shall be entitled to appoint counsel (including local counsel) of the indemnifying party’s choice
at the indemnifying party’s expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which
indemnification is sought (in which case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible
for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel, other than local counsel if not appointed by the
indemnifying party, retained by the indemnified party or parties except as set forth below);
provided, however, that such counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the
indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s election to appoint counsel (including
local counsel) to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have
the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall
bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel
chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with
a conflict of interest; (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action
include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have
reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified
parties that are different from or additional to those

15

 

available to the indemnifying party; (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within
a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action; or (iv) the indemnifying party
shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying
party; provided that, in each case, not more than one such separate counsel shall be employed for
all indemnified parties. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the
indemnified parties (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), settle
or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened
claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought
hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or
action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each
indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding, and
(ii) does not include any statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to
act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party. In addition, no indemnified party shall, without
the written consent of the indemnifying party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed), effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any
judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in respect of which
indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder.

     (d) In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section is
unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party for any reason, then each
applicable indemnifying party shall have a joint and several obligation to contribute to the
aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred in connection with investigating or defending any loss, claim, liability, damage or
action) (collectively “Losses”) to which such indemnified party may be subject in such proportion
as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by such indemnifying party, on the one
hand, and such indemnified party, on the other hand, from the Initial Placement and the
Registration Statement which resulted in such Losses; provided, however, that in no
case shall any Initial Purchaser be responsible, in the aggregate, for any amount in excess of the
purchase discount or commission applicable to such Securities, or in the case of an Exchange
Security, as applicable to such Exchange Securities, as set forth in the Final Memorandum, nor
shall any Underwriter be responsible for any amount in excess of the underwriting discount or
commission applicable to the securities purchased by such Underwriter under the Registration
Statement which resulted in such Losses. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding
sentence is unavailable for any reason, the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall
contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also
the relative fault of such indemnifying party, on the one hand, and such indemnified party, on the
other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses as well as
any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors
shall be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from the Initial Placement (before deducting
expenses) as set forth in the Final Memorandum. Benefits received by the Initial Purchasers shall
be deemed to be equal to the total purchase discounts and commissions as set forth on the cover
page of the Final Memorandum, and benefits received by any other Holders shall be deemed to be
equal to the value of receiving Securities or Exchange Securities, as applicable, registered under
the Act. Benefits received by any Underwriter shall be deemed to be equal to the total
underwriting discounts and commissions, as set forth on the cover page of the Prospectus forming a
part of the Registration

16

 

Statement which resulted in such Losses. Relative fault shall be determined by reference to,
among other things, whether any untrue or any alleged untrue statement of a material fact or
omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information provided by the
indemnifying party, on the one hand, or by the indemnified party, on the other hand, the intent of
the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or
prevent such untrue statement or omission. The parties agree that it would not be just and
equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Holders were treated
as one entity for such purpose) or any other method of allocation which does not take account of
the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph
(d), no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the
Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section, each person who controls a Holder within the
meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act and each director, officer, employee and agent of
such Holder shall have the same rights to contribution as such Holder, and each person who controls
the Company or any Guarantor within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, each
director, officer, employee, Affiliate and agent of either the Company or any Guarantor shall have
the same rights to contribution as the Company or any Guarantor, subject in each case to the
applicable terms and conditions of this paragraph (d).

     (e) The provisions of this Section will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any
investigation made by or on behalf of any Holder or the Company or any Guarantor or any of the
indemnified parties referred to in this Section 6, and will survive the sale by a Holder of
securities covered by a Registration Statement.

     7. Underwritten Registrations. (a) If any of the Securities or Exchange Securities,
as the case may be, covered by any Shelf Registration Statement are to be sold in an underwritten
offering, the Managing Underwriters shall be selected by the Majority Holders, such selection to be
subject to the Company’s prior written approval, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed.

     (b) No person may participate in any underwritten offering pursuant to any Shelf Registration
Statement, unless such person (i) agrees to sell such person’s Securities or Exchange Securities,
as the case may be, on the basis reasonably provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by
the persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements; and (ii) completes and executes all
questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents
reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

     8. Registration Defaults and Additional Interest. If (a) the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement has not been filed with the Commission by the 210th calendar day after the
Closing Date, (b) on or prior to the Exchange Date, the Registered Exchange Offer has not been
consummated, (c) on or prior to the 75th day after the filing of a Shelf Registration Statement,
such Shelf Registration Statement has not been declared effective, or (d) after the Shelf
Registration Statement or the Exchange Offer Registration Statement has been declared effective,
such Registration Statement thereafter ceases to be effective or usable in connection with resales
or exchanges of Securities or Exchange Securities in accordance with and during the periods
specified in this Agreement (other than as permitted pursuant to Section 4(c) or Section

17

 

4(k)(ii))(each such event referred to in clauses (a) through (d), (a “Registration Default”),
interest (“Additional Interest”) will accrue, and be paid as liquidated damages, on the principal
amount of the Securities and the Exchange Securities that are not Freely Tradable (“Restricted
Securities”) (in addition to the stated interest on such Restricted Securities) from and including
the date on which any such Registration Default shall occur to but excluding the date that is the
earlier of (i) the date on which all Registration Defaults have been cured or (ii) the date such
Restricted Securities become Freely Tradable. Additional Interest will accrue at a rate of 0.25%
per annum during the 90-day period immediately following the occurrence of such Registration
Default and shall increase by 0.25% per annum at the end of each subsequent 90-day period, but in
no event shall such rate exceed 1.00% per annum. If, after the cure of all Registration Defaults
then in effect, there is a subsequent Registration Default, the rate of Additional Interest for
such subsequent Registration Default shall initially be 0.25% regardless of the rate in effect with
respect to any prior Registration Default at the time of cure of such Registration Default.

     All obligations of the Company and the Guarantors set forth in the preceding paragraph that
are outstanding with respect to any Security at the time such Security is exchanged for an Exchange
Security shall survive until such time as all such obligations with respect to such Security have
been satisfied in full.

     9. No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company and the Guarantors have not entered into,
and agree not to enter into, any agreement with respect to its securities that is inconsistent with
the rights granted to the Holders herein or that otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof.

     10. Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement may not be amended,
qualified, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions
hereof may not be given at any time, unless the Company and the Guarantors have obtained the
written consent of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Registrable
Securities then outstanding; provided that, with respect to any matter that directly or indirectly
affects the rights of any Initial Purchaser hereunder, the Company and the Guarantors shall obtain
the written consent of each such Initial Purchaser against which such amendment, qualification,
supplement, waiver or consent is to be effective; provided, further, that no
amendment, qualification, supplement, waiver or consent with respect to Section 8 hereof shall be
effective as against any Holder of Registrable Securities unless consented to in writing by such
Holder; and provided, further, that the provisions of this Section 10 may not be
amended, qualified, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the
provisions hereof may not be given, unless the Company and the Guarantors have obtained the written
consent of each Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing (except the foregoing provisos), a waiver or
consent to departure from the provisions hereof with respect to a matter that relates exclusively
to the rights of Holders whose Securities or Exchange Securities, as the case may be, are being
sold pursuant to a Registration Statement and that does not directly or indirectly affect the
rights of other Holders in any material respect may be given by the Majority Holders, determined on
the basis of Securities or Exchange Securities, as the case may be, being sold rather than
registered under such Registration Statement.

18

 

     11. Notices. All notices and other communications provided for or permitted hereunder
shall be made in writing by hand-delivery, first-class mail, telex, telecopier or air courier
guaranteeing overnight delivery:

          (a) if to a Holder, at the most current address given by such holder to the Company in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 11, which address initially is, with respect to each
Holder, the address of such Holder maintained by the registrar under the Indenture;

          (b) if to the Initial Purchasers, initially at the address or addresses set forth in the
Purchase Agreement; and

          (c) if to the Company or any Guarantor, initially at its address set forth in the Purchase
Agreement.

     All such notices and communications shall be deemed to have been duly given when received.

     The Initial Purchasers, the Company and the Guarantors by notice to the other parties may
designate additional or different addresses for subsequent notices or communications.

     12. Remedies. Each Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights
provided to it herein, in the Indenture or in the Purchase Agreement (if an Initial Purchaser) or
granted by law, including recovery of liquidated or other damages, will be entitled to specific
performance of its rights under this Agreement. The Company and the Guarantors agree that monetary
damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the
provisions of this Agreement and hereby agrees to waive in any action for specific performance the
defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

     13. Successors. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the
parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns, including, without the need for an express
assignment or any consent by the Company or any Guarantor thereto, subsequent Holders of Securities
and the Exchange Securities, and the indemnified persons referred to in Section 6 hereof. The
Company and the Guarantors hereby agree to extend the benefits of this Agreement to any Holder of
Securities and the Exchange Securities, and any such Holder may specifically enforce the provisions
of this Agreement as if an original party hereto.

     14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in one or more counterparts, each of
which shall constitute an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same
agreement.

     15. Headings. The section headings used herein are for convenience only and shall not
affect the construction hereof.

     16. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts made and to be performed in the
State of New York. The parties hereto each hereby waive any right to trial by jury in any action,
proceeding or counterclaim arising out of or relating to this Agreement.

19

 

     17. Severability. In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained
herein, or the application thereof in any circumstances, is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable
in any respect for any reason, the validity, legality and enforceability of any such provision in
every other respect and of the remaining provisions hereof shall not be in any way impaired or
affected thereby, it being intended that all of the rights and privileges of the parties shall be
enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

     18. Securities Held by the Company, etc. Whenever the consent or approval of Holders
of a specified percentage of principal amount of Securities or Exchange Securities is required
hereunder, Securities or Exchange Securities, as applicable, held by the Company, the Guarantors or
any of their respective Affiliates (other than subsequent Holders of Securities or Exchange
Securities if such subsequent Holders are deemed to be Affiliates solely by reason of their
holdings of such Securities or Exchange Securities) shall not be counted in determining whether
such consent or approval was given by the Holders of such required percentage.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

     Each broker-dealer that receives exchange securities for its own account pursuant to the
exchange offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of
such exchange securities. This prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time,
may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of exchange securities received in

or other trading activities. NII Capital Corp. has agreed that, beginning on the date of
consummation of the exchange offer and ending on the close of business 180-days after the
consummation of the exchange offer, it will make this prospectus, as amended or supplemented,
available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. In addition, until
_________, ___, all dealers effecting transactions in the exchange securities may be required to
deliver a prospectus.

     The company will not receive any proceeds from any sale of exchange securities by
brokers-dealers. Exchange securities received by broker-dealers for their own account pursuant to
the exchange offer may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions in the
over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, through the writing of options on the exchange
securities or a combination of such methods of resale, at market prices prevailing at the time of
resale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or negotiated prices. Any such resale
may be made directly to purchasers or to or through brokers or dealers who may receive compensation
in the form of commissions or concessions from any such broker-dealer and/or the purchasers of any
such exchange securities. Any broker-dealer that resells exchange securities that were received by
it for its own account pursuant to the exchange offer and any broker or dealer that participates in
a distribution of such exchange securities may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning
of the Act and any profit of any such resale of exchange securities and any commissions or
concessions received by any such persons may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the
Act. The Letter of Transmittal states that by acknowledging that it will deliver and by delivering
a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the
meaning of the Act.

     For a period of one year after the consummation of the exchange offer, NII Capital Corp. will
promptly send a reasonable number of additional copies of this prospectus and any amendment or
supplement to this prospectus to any broker-dealer that requests such documents in the Letter of
Transmittal. NII Capital Corp. has agreed to pay all expenses incident to the exchange offer
(including the expenses of one counsel for the holder of the securities) other than commissions or
concessions of any brokers or dealers and will indemnify the holders of the securities (including

if applicable, will not, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a

material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading, and (iv) the Final Memorandum, in the form used
by the Initial Purchasers to confirm sales and on the Closing Date (as defined in Section
4), will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material
fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading, except that the representations and warranties set

authorized by such Guarantor and, when the Indenture has been executed and delivered by the

any such permit, license or approval, except where such noncompliance with Environmental

with the terms and conditions of such permits, licenses or approvals would not, singly or
in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

5

 

operating expenditures required for clean-up, closure of properties or compliance with

“Intellectual Property”) necessary to carry on the business now operated by them, except

the interest of the Parent, the Company or any of the Subsidiaries therein, and which
infringement or conflict (if the subject of any unfavorable decision, ruling or finding) or
invalidity or inadequacy, singly or in the aggregate, would result in a Material Adverse
Effect.

consents, authorizations, approvals, orders, certificates and permits or make such
declarations and filings, if any, would not have a Material Adverse Effect and (ii) has not
received any notice of proceedings relating to the violation, revocation or modification of
any such license, consent, authorization, approval, order, certificate or permit which,
singly or in the aggregate, if the subject of any unfavorable decision, ruling or finding,
would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

conformity with U.S. GAAP and to maintain asset accountability; (iii) access to assets is

adversely affected, or is

7

 

reasonably likely to materially adversely affect, the Parent’s internal control over
financial reporting.

reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is made known to the Parent’s
management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, and
by others within those entities as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosure; such disclosure controls and procedures were evaluated for effectiveness by
management of the Parent and were determined to be effective as of December 31, 2008, and
since the date of such evaluation, there have been no significant changes in the disclosure
controls and procedures that are reasonably likely to materially adversely affect the
disclosure controls and procedures.

     (y) Except as disclosed in the Time of Sale Memorandum, the Parent is in compliance in

     (cc) None of the Company, the Guarantors, their Affiliates or any person acting on its
or their behalf (other than the Initial Purchasers) has engaged or will engage in any
directed selling efforts (within the meaning of Regulation S) with respect to the
Securities and the Company, the Guarantors and their Affiliates and any person acting on
its or their behalf (other than the Initial Purchasers) have complied and will comply with

or proceeding by or before any court or governmental agency, authority or body or any
arbitrator involving the Parent, the Company or any of the Subsidiaries with respect to the

December 15, 2009, or at such other time on the same or such other date, not later than December
22, 2009, as shall be designated in writing by you. The time and date of such payment are
hereinafter referred to as the “Closing Date.”

     The Securities shall be in definitive form or global form, as specified by you, and registered
in such names and in such denominations as you shall request in writing not later than one full
business day prior to the Closing Date. The Securities shall be delivered to you on the Closing
Date for the respective accounts of the several Initial Purchasers, with any transfer taxes payable
in connection with the transfer of the Securities to the Initial Purchasers duly paid, against
payment of the Purchase Price therefor.

     5. Conditions to the Initial Purchasers’ Obligations. The several obligations of the Initial
Purchasers to purchase and pay for the Securities on the Closing Date are subject to the following
conditions:

     (a) Subsequent to the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the
Closing Date:

10

 

     (i) there shall not have occurred any downgrading, nor shall any notice have
been given of any intended or potential downgrading or of any review for a
possible change that does not indicate the direction of the possible change, in
the rating accorded any of the Company’s or any Guarantor’s securities by any
“nationally recognized statistical rating organization,” as such term is defined
for purposes of Rule 436(g)(2) under the Securities Act; and

     (ii) there shall not have occurred any change, or any development involving a
prospective change, in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings,
business or operations of the Parent, the Company and the Subsidiaries, taken as a
whole, from that set forth in the Time of Sale Memorandum (exclusive of any
amendments or supplements thereto subsequent to the date of this Agreement) that,
in your judgment, is material and adverse and that makes it, in your judgment,
impracticable to market the Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated
in the Time of Sale Memorandum.

     (b) The Initial Purchasers shall have received on the Closing Date a certificate from
the Company and each Guarantor, dated the Closing Date and signed by an executive officer
of the Company or such Guarantor, as applicable, to the effect set forth in Section 5(a)(i)
above and to the effect that the representations and warranties of the Company or such
Guarantor, as applicable, contained in this Agreement are true and correct as of the
Closing Date and that the Company or such Guarantor, as applicable, has complied with all
of the agreements and satisfied all of the conditions on its part to be performed or
satisfied hereunder on or before the Closing Date. The officer signing and delivering such
certificate may rely upon the best of his or her knowledge as to proceedings threatened.

     (c) The Initial Purchasers shall have received on the Closing Date an opinion of
Williams Mullen, special counsel for the Parent, dated the Closing Date, in the form set
forth in Exhibit A.

     (d) The Initial Purchasers shall have received on the Closing Date the opinions of
special foreign counsel for the Parent in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Mexico and Peru, dated
the Closing Date, in the respective forms set forth in Exhibits B-1, B-2, B-3, B-4 and B-5.

     (e) The Initial Purchasers shall have received on the Closing Date an opinion of
Shearman & Sterling LLP, counsel for the Initial Purchasers, dated the Closing Date.

     (f) The Initial Purchasers shall have received, on each of the date hereof and the
Closing Date, a letter dated the date hereof or the Closing Date, as the case may be, in
form and substance satisfactory to the Initial Purchasers, from PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP,
independent registered public accountants, containing statements and information of the
type ordinarily included in

11

 

accountants’ “comfort letters” to underwriters with respect to the financial
statements and certain financial information contained and incorporated by reference in the
Time of Sale Memorandum and the Final Memorandum; provided that the letter delivered on the
Closing Date shall use a “cut-off date” not earlier than the date hereof.

     (g) At or prior to the Closing Date, the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee shall
have executed and delivered the Indenture, and the Company, the Guarantors and the Initial
Purchasers shall have executed and delivered the Registration Rights Agreement in the form
of Exhibit D hereto.

     (h) The Initial Purchasers shall have received from the Chief Executive Officer and
the Vice President and Treasurer of the Parent a letter, in form and substance satisfactory
to the Initial Purchasers and dated the date hereof, relating to certain financial
information included or incorporated by reference in the Time of Sale Memorandum that is
not covered in the “comfort letters” referenced in 5(f) above.

     (i) Counsel for the Initial Purchasers shall have been furnished with such documents
as they may reasonably require for the purpose of enabling them to pass upon the issuance
and sale of the Securities herein contemplated, or in order to evidence the accuracy of any
of the representations or warranties or the fulfillment of any of the conditions herein
contained.

     6. Covenants of the Company and the Guarantors. In further consideration of the agreements of
the Initial Purchasers contained in this Agreement, each of the Company and the Guarantors, jointly
and severally, covenants with each Initial Purchaser as follows:

     (a) To furnish to you in New York City, without charge, prior to 10:00 a.m. New York
City time on the business day next succeeding the date of this Agreement and during the
period mentioned in Section 6(d) or (e), as many copies of the Time of Sale Memorandum, the
Final Memorandum, any documents incorporated by reference therein and any supplements and
amendments thereto as you may reasonably request.

     (b) Before amending or supplementing the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale
Memorandum or the Final Memorandum, to furnish to you a copy of each such proposed
amendment or supplement and not to use any such proposed amendment or supplement to which
you reasonably object.

     (c) To furnish to you a copy of each proposed Additional Written Offering
Communication to be prepared by or on behalf of, used by, or referred to by the Company or
any Guarantor and not to use or refer to any proposed Additional Written Offering
Communication to which you reasonably object.

     (d) If the Time of Sale Memorandum is being used to solicit offers to buy the
Securities at a time when the Final Memorandum is not yet available to prospective
purchasers and any event shall occur or condition exist as a result of

12

 

which it is necessary to amend or supplement the Time of Sale Memorandum in order to
make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances, not misleading, or if, in
the opinion of counsel for the Initial Purchasers, it is necessary to amend or supplement
the Time of Sale Memorandum to comply with applicable law, forthwith to prepare and
furnish, at its own expense, to the Initial Purchasers and to any dealer upon request,
either amendments or supplements to the Time of Sale Memorandum so that the statements in
the Time of Sale Memorandum as so amended or supplemented will not, in the light of the
circumstances when delivered to a prospective purchaser, be misleading or so that the Time
of Sale Memorandum, as amended or supplemented, will comply with applicable law.

     (e) If, during such period after the date hereof and prior to the date on which all of
the Securities shall have been sold by the Initial Purchasers, any event shall occur or
condition exist as a result of which it is necessary to amend or supplement the Final
Memorandum in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances when
the Final Memorandum is delivered to a purchaser, not misleading, or if, in the opinion of
counsel for the Initial Purchasers, it is necessary to amend or supplement the Final
Memorandum to comply with applicable law, forthwith to prepare and furnish, at its own
expense, to the Initial Purchasers, either amendments or supplements to the Final
Memorandum so that the statements in the Final Memorandum as so amended or supplemented
will not, in the light of the circumstances when the Final Memorandum is delivered to a
purchaser, be misleading or so that the Final Memorandum, as amended or supplemented, will
comply with applicable law.

     (f) To endeavor to qualify the Securities for offer and sale under the securities or
Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as you shall reasonably request.

     (g) Whether or not the transactions contemplated in this Agreement are consummated or

include any Initial Purchaser’s discounts or commissions payable to such Initial Purchaser)
incident to the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, including: (i) the
fees, disbursements and expenses of the Company’s and the Guarantors’ counsel and the
Parent’s accountants in connection with the issuance and sale of the Securities and all
other fees or expenses in connection with the preparation of the Preliminary Memorandum,
the Time of Sale Memorandum, the Final Memorandum, any Additional Written Offering
Communication prepared by or on behalf of, used by, or referred to by the Company or any
Guarantor and any amendments and supplements to any of the foregoing, including all

the Initial Purchasers, in the quantities herein above specified, (ii) all costs and
expenses related to the transfer and delivery of the Securities to the Initial Purchasers,
including any transfer or other taxes payable thereon, (iii) the cost of printing or
producing any Blue Sky or legal investment memorandum in connection with the offer and sale

qualification of the Securities for offer and sale under state securities laws as provided
in Section 6(f)

13

 

hereof, including filing fees and the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for
the Initial Purchasers in connection with such qualification and in connection with the
Blue Sky or legal investment memorandum, (iv) any fees charged by rating agencies for the
rating of the Securities, (v) the fees and expenses, if any, incurred in connection with
the admission of the Securities for trading in any appropriate market system, (vi) the
costs and charges of the Trustee and any transfer agent, registrar, paying agent or

travel and lodging expenses of the representatives and officers of the Company and the
Guarantors and any such consultants, and the cost of any aircraft chartered in connection
with the road show, (ix) the document production charges and expenses associated with
printing this Agreement, the Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement and (x) all
other costs and expenses incident to the performance of the obligations of the Company and
the Guarantors hereunder for which provision is not otherwise made in this Section. It is
understood, however, that except as provided in this Section, Section 8 entitled “Indemnity
and Contribution,” and the last paragraph of Section 10 below, the Initial Purchasers will
pay all of their costs and expenses, including fees and disbursements of their counsel,
transfer taxes payable on resale of any of the Securities by them and any advertising
expenses connected with any offers they may make.

     (h) Not to, and to use their reasonable best efforts to ensure that no Affiliate will,
sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any
security (as defined in the Securities Act) which could be integrated with the sale of the
Securities in a manner which would require the registration under the Securities Act of the
Securities.

     (i) Not to solicit any offer to buy or offer or sell the Securities by means of any
form of general solicitation or general advertising (as those terms are used in Regulation
D under the Securities Act) or in any manner involving a public offering within the meaning
of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act.

     (j) While any of the Securities remain “restricted securities” within the meaning of
the Securities Act, to make available, upon request, to any seller of such Securities the
information specified in Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act, unless the Parent is
then subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act.

     (k) None of the Parent, the Company, their Affiliates or any person acting on its or
their behalf (other than the Initial Purchasers) will engage in any directed selling
efforts (as that term is defined in Regulation S) with respect to the Securities, and the
Parent, the Company and their Affiliates and each person acting

14

 

on its or their behalf (other than the Initial Purchasers) will comply with the
offering restrictions requirement of Regulation S.

     (l) During the period of one year after the Closing Date, neither the Parent or the
Company will resell, and will use their best efforts to prevent their affiliates (as such
term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act) from reselling, any of the Securities
which constitute “restricted securities” under Rule 144 that have been acquired by any of
them.

     (m) Not to take any action prohibited by Regulation M under the Exchange Act in
connection with the distribution of the Securities contemplated hereby.

     Each of the Parent and Company agrees that, without the prior written consent of Morgan
Stanley & Co. Incorporated on behalf of the Initial Purchasers, it will not, during the period
ending 30 days after the date of the Time of Sale Memorandum, offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge
or otherwise dispose of any debt securities of the Parent or the Company or warrants to purchase
debt securities of the Parent or the Company substantially similar to the Securities (other than
the sale of the Securities under this Agreement).

     7. Offering of Securities; Restrictions on Transfer. (a) Each Initial Purchaser, severally
and not jointly, represents and warrants that such Initial Purchaser is a qualified institutional
buyer as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act (a “QIB”). Each Initial Purchaser, severally
and not jointly, agrees with the Company and the Guarantors that (i) it has not solicited and will
not solicit offers for, or offer or sell, such Securities by any form of general solicitation or
general advertising (as those terms are used in Regulation D under the Securities Act) or in any
manner involving a public offering within the meaning of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and
(ii) it will solicit offers for such Securities only from, and will offer such Securities only to,
persons that it reasonably believes to be (A) in the case of offers inside the United States, QIBs,
and (B) in the case of offers outside the United States, to persons other than U.S. persons
(“foreign purchasers,” which term shall include dealers or other professional fiduciaries in the
United States acting on a discretionary basis for foreign beneficial owners (other than an estate
or trust)) in reliance upon Regulation S under the Securities Act that, in each case, in purchasing
such Securities are deemed to have represented and agreed as provided in the Final Memorandum under
the caption “Transfer Restrictions” and (iii) it will not use or refer to, and represents that it
has not used or referred to, any Additional Written Offering Communication without the Parent’s
prior consent other than written communications that contain the possible terms of the Securities
and/or information that was included (including through incorporation by reference) in the Time of
Sale Memorandum or the Final Memorandum.

     (b) Each Initial Purchaser, severally and not jointly, represents, warrants, and
agrees with respect to offers and sales outside the United States that:

15

 

     (i) such Initial Purchaser understands that no action has been or will be
taken by the Company or any Guarantor that would permit a public offering of the
Securities, or possession or distribution of the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time
of Sale Memorandum, the Final Memorandum or any other offering or publicity
material relating to the Securities, in any country or jurisdiction where action
for that purpose is required;

     (ii) such Initial Purchaser will comply with all applicable laws and
regulations in each jurisdiction in which it acquires, offers, sells or delivers
Securities or has in its possession or distributes the Preliminary Memorandum, the
Time of Sale Memorandum, the Final Memorandum or any such other material, in all
cases at its own expense;

     (iii) the Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act and
may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account or
benefit of, U.S. persons except in accordance with Rule 144A or Regulation S under
the Securities Act or pursuant to another exemption from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act;

     (iv) such Initial Purchaser has offered the Securities and will offer and
sell the Securities (A) as part of their distribution at any time and (B)
otherwise until 40 days after the later of the commencement of the offering and
the Closing Date, only in accordance with Rule 903 of Regulation S or as otherwise
permitted in Section 7(a) hereof; accordingly, neither such Initial Purchaser, its
Affiliates nor any persons acting on its or their behalf have engaged or will
engage in any directed selling efforts (within the meaning of Regulation S) with
respect to the Securities, and any such Initial Purchaser, its Affiliates and any
such persons have complied and will comply with the offering restrictions
requirement of Regulation S;

     (v) such Initial Purchaser, in relation to each Member State of the European
Economic Area which has implemented the Prospectus Directive (each, a “Member
State”), has represented and agreed that with effect from and including the date
on which the Prospectus Directive is implemented in that Member State it has not
made and will not make an offer of Securities to the public in that Member State,
except that it may, with effect from and including such date, make an offer of
Securities to the public in that Member State:

     (A) at any time to legal entities which are authorized or regulated
to operate in the financial markets or, if not so authorised or
regulated, whose corporate purpose is solely to invest in securities;

16

 

     (B) at any time to any legal entity which has two or more of (1) an
average of at least 250 employees during the last financial year; (2) a
total balance sheet of more than €43,000,000 and (3) an annual net
turnover of more than €50,000,000, as shown in its last annual or
consolidated accounts; or

     (C) at any time in any other circumstances which do not require the
publication by us of a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus
Directive.

For the purposes of the above, the expression an “offer of Securities to the public” in
relation to any Securities in any Member State means the communication in any form and by
any means of sufficient information on the terms of the offer and the Securities to be
offered so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase or subscribe the Securities, as
the same may be varied in that Member State by any measure implementing the Prospectus
Directive in that Member State and the expression Prospectus Directive means Directive
2003/71/EC and includes any relevant implementing measure in that Member State;

     (vi) such Initial Purchaser has represented and agreed that it has only
communicated or caused to be communicated and will only communicate or cause to be
communicated an invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity (within
the meaning of Section 21 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000) in
connection with the issue or sale of the Securities in circumstances in which
Section 21(1) of such Act does not apply to us and it has complied and will comply
with all applicable provisions of such Act with respect to anything done by it in
relation to any Securities in, from or otherwise involving the United Kingdom; and

     (vii) such Initial Purchaser agrees that, at or prior to confirmation of
sales of the Securities, it will have sent to each distributor, dealer or person
receiving a selling concession, fee or other remuneration that purchases
Securities from it during the restricted period a confirmation or notice to
substantially the following effect:

     “The Securities covered hereby have not been registered under the
U.S. Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) and may not be offered
and sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of,
U.S. persons (i) as part of their distribution at any time or (ii)
otherwise until 40 days after the later of the commencement of the
offering and the Closing Date, except in either case in accordance with
Regulation S (or Rule 144A if available) under the Securities Act. Terms
used above have the meaning given to them by Regulation S.”

Terms used in this Section 7(b) have the meanings given to them by Regulation S.

17

 

          (c) The Company and the Guarantors agree that the Initial Purchasers may provide copies of the
Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum, the Final Memorandum and any other agreements
or documents relating thereto, including without limitation, the Indenture and the Registration
Rights Agreement, to Xtract Research LLC (“Xtract”), following completion of the offering, for
inclusion in an online research service sponsored by Xtract, access to which shall be restricted by
Xtract to QIBs.

     8. Indemnity and Contribution. (a) Each of the Company and the Guarantors agrees to indemnify
and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser, each person, if any, who controls any Initial Purchaser
within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act,
and each affiliate of any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities
Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without
limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or
investigating any such action or claim) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
of a material fact contained in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum, any
Additional Written Offering Communication prepared by or on behalf of, used by, or referred to by
the Company or any Guarantor, or the Final Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto, or
caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the
statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading,
except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are caused by any such untrue
statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission based upon information relating to
any Initial Purchaser furnished to the Company or any Guarantor in writing by such Initial
Purchaser through you expressly for use therein.

          (b) Each Initial Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless
the Company, each Guarantor, the directors of the Company and the Guarantors, the officers of the
Company and the Guarantors and each person, if any, who controls the Company or any Guarantor
within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to
the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company and the Guarantors to such Initial
Purchaser, but only with reference to information relating to such Initial Purchaser furnished to
the Company or any Guarantor in writing by or on behalf of such Initial Purchaser through you
expressly for use in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum, any Additional
Written Offering Communication prepared by or on behalf of, used by or referred to by the Company
or any Guarantor, or the Final Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto.

          (c) In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted
involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 8(a) or 8(b),
such person (the “indemnified party”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity
may be sought (the “indemnifying party”) in writing and the indemnifying party, upon request of the
indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to
represent the indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in such
proceeding and shall pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such
proceeding. In

18

 

any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the
fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the
indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such
counsel or (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include
both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the
same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them.
It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any
indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same
jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to
any local counsel) for all such indemnified parties and that all such fees and expenses shall be
reimbursed as they are incurred. Such firm shall be designated in writing by Morgan Stanley & Co.
Incorporated, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 8(a), and by the Parent, in
the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 8(b). The indemnifying party shall not be
liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled
with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees
to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such
settlement or judgment. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the
indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of
which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought
hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release
of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such
proceeding, (ii) requires no performance or payment obligations on the part of the indemnified
party and (iii) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a
failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

          (d) To the extent the indemnification provided for in Section 8(a) or 8(b) is unavailable to
an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities
referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying
such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion
as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors on
the one hand and the Initial Purchasers on the other hand from the offering of the Securities or
(ii) if the allocation provided by clause 8(d)(i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause
8(d)(i) above but also the relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and of
the Initial Purchasers on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions that
resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand
and the Initial Purchasers on the other hand in connection with the offering of the Securities
shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds from the offering of
the Securities (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the total discounts and
commissions received by the Initial Purchasers bear to the aggregate offering price of the
Securities. The relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and of the
Initial Purchasers on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the

19

 

omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the
Company or any Guarantor or by the Initial Purchasers and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge,
access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The
Initial Purchasers’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 8 are several in
proportion to the respective principal amount of Securities they have purchased hereunder, and not
joint.

          (e) The Company, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just or
equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8 were determined by pro rata allocation (even
if the Initial Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of
allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section 8(d).
The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and
liabilities referred to in Section 8(d) shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set
forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in
connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the
provisions of this Section 8, no Initial Purchaser shall be required to contribute any amount in
excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities resold by it in the initial
placement of such Securities were offered to investors exceeds the amount of any damages that such
Initial Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation
(within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from
any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The remedies provided for in
this Section 8 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be
available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.

          (f) The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 8 and the
representations, warranties and other statements of the Company and the Guarantors and the Initial
Purchasers contained in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect
regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of
any Initial Purchaser, any person controlling any Initial Purchaser or any affiliate of any Initial
Purchaser or by or on behalf of the Company or any Guarantor, their respective officers or
directors or any person controlling the Company or any Guarantor and (iii) acceptance of and
payment for any of the Securities.

     9. Termination. The Initial Purchasers may terminate this Agreement by notice given by you to
the Parent, if after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date (i)
trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on, or by, as the case may be,
any of the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq Stock Market, the
Chicago Board Options Exchange, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange or the Chicago Board of Trade, (ii)
trading of any securities of the Parent shall have been suspended on any exchange or in any
over-the-counter market, (iii) a material disruption in securities settlement, payment or clearance
services in the United States shall have occurred, (iv) any moratorium on commercial banking
activities shall have been declared by Federal or New York State authorities or (v) there shall
have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities, or any change in financial markets,

20

 

currency exchange rates or controls or any calamity or crisis that, in your judgment, is
material and adverse and which, singly or together with any other event specified in this clause
(v), makes it, in your judgment, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offer, sale or
delivery of the Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Time of Sale
Memorandum or the Final Memorandum.

     10. Effectiveness; Defaulting Initial Purchasers. This Agreement shall become effective upon
the execution and delivery hereof by the parties hereto.

     If, on the Closing Date, any one or more of the Initial Purchasers shall fail or refuse to
purchase Securities that it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, and the
aggregate principal amount of Securities which such defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial
Purchasers agreed but failed or refused to purchase is not more than one-tenth of the aggregate
principal amount of Securities to be purchased on such date, the other Initial Purchasers shall be
obligated severally in the proportions that the principal amount of Securities set forth opposite
their respective names in Schedule I bears to the aggregate principal amount of Securities set
forth opposite the names of all such non-defaulting Initial Purchasers, or in such other
proportions as you may specify, to purchase the Securities which such defaulting Initial Purchaser
or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed or refused to purchase on such date; provided that in no
event shall the principal amount of Securities that any Initial Purchaser has agreed to purchase
pursuant to this Agreement be increased pursuant to this Section 10 by an amount in excess of
one-ninth of such principal amount of Securities without the written consent of such Initial
Purchaser. If, on the Closing Date any Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers shall fail or refuse
to purchase Securities which it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date and the
aggregate principal amount of Securities with respect to which such default occurs is more than
one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be purchased on such date, and
arrangements satisfactory to you and the Parent for the purchase of such Securities are not made
within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of
any non-defaulting Initial Purchaser or of the Company or any Guarantor. In any such case either
you or the Parent, on behalf of the Company and the other Guarantors, shall have the right to
postpone the Closing Date, but in no event for longer than seven days, in order that the required
changes, if any, in the Time of Sale Memorandum, the Final Memorandum or in any other documents or
arrangements may be effected. Any action taken under this paragraph shall not relieve any
defaulting Initial Purchaser from liability in respect of any default of such Initial Purchaser
under this Agreement.

     If this Agreement shall be terminated by the Initial Purchasers, or any of them, because of
any failure or refusal on the part of the Company or any Guarantor to comply with the terms or to
fulfill any of the conditions of this Agreement, or if for any reason the Company or any Guarantor
shall be unable to perform its obligations under this Agreement, the Company and the Guarantors
will reimburse the Initial Purchasers or such Initial Purchasers as have so terminated this
Agreement with respect to themselves, severally, for all out-of-pocket expenses (including the fees
and disbursements of their counsel) reasonably incurred by such Initial Purchasers in connection
with this Agreement or the offering contemplated hereunder.

     11. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which
shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the
same instrument.

     12. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
internal laws of the State of New York.

     13. Headings. The headings of the sections of this Agreement have been inserted for
convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed a part of this Agreement.

     14. Absence of Fiduciary Relationship. Each of the Company and the Guarantors acknowledges
and agrees that (a) the purchase and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement is an
arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and
the Initial Purchasers, on the other, (b) in connection therewith and with the process leading to
such transaction the Initial Purchasers are acting solely as principals and not the agents or
fiduciaries of the Company or any Guarantor, (c) the Initial Purchasers have not assumed an
advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company or any Guarantor with respect to the
offering contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether the Initial
Purchasers have advised or are currently advising the Company on other matters) or any other
obligation to the Company or any Guarantor except the obligations expressly set forth in this
Agreement and (d) the Company and each Guarantor has consulted its own legal and financial advisors
to the extent it deemed appropriate. Each of the Company and the Guarantors agrees that it will
not claim that the Initial Purchasers have acted in any capacity other than as initial purchasers
pursuant to this Agreement, or owe any fiduciary duty to the Company or any Guarantor, in
connection with the offering, purchase or sale of the Securities or the process leading thereto.

     15. Entire Agreement. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings
(whether written or oral) among the Company, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers with respect
to the subject matter hereof.

     16. Waiver of Jury Trial. The Company, each Guarantor and the Initial Purchasers hereby
irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by
jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions
contemplated hereby.

     17. Notices. All communications hereunder shall be in writing and effective only upon receipt

EXHIBIT A

FORM OF OPINION OF WILLIAMS MULLEN, COUNSEL FOR THE COMPANY,

 PURSUANT TO SECTION 5(C)

     A. The Company has been duly incorporated, is validly existing as a corporation in good
standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation, has the corporate power and
authority to own its property and to conduct its business as described in the Time of Sale
Memorandum and the Final Memorandum and is duly qualified to transact business and is in good
standing in each jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or its ownership or leasing of
property requires such qualification, except to the extent that the failure to be so qualified or
be in good standing would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

     B. Each Guarantor has been duly incorporated or organized and is validly existing as a
corporation or limited liability company, as applicable, in good standing (as to each corporate
Guarantor) under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization, has the
corporate or limited liability company power and authority to own its property and to conduct its
business as described in the Time of Sale Memorandum and the Final Memorandum and is duly qualified
to transact business and, to the extent applicable, is in good standing in each jurisdiction in
which the conduct of its business or its ownership or leasing of property requires such
qualification, except to the extent that the failure to be so qualified or be in good standing
would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

     C. This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and the
Guarantors.

     D. The authorized capital stock of the Parent conforms as to legal matters in all material
respects to the description thereof contained in the Time of Sale Memorandum and the Final
Memorandum.

     E. The shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Parent outstanding prior to
the issuance of the Securities have been duly authorized and are validly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable under the Delaware General Corporation Law.

     F. All of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company and each Guarantor
(other than the Parent) have been duly and validly authorized and issued, are fully paid and
non-assessable, are owned directly or indirectly by the Parent and, to counsel’s knowledge and
except as described in the Time of Sale Memorandum and the Final Memorandum, are free and clear of
all liens and encumbrances.

     G. The Notes have been duly authorized by the Company and, when executed by the Company and
authenticated by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture and delivered to
and paid for by the Initial Purchasers in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, will be
valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as
the enforceability thereof may be limited by (A) bankruptcy,

A-1

 

insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or similar laws affecting the
enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (B) general principles of equity (regardless of whether
enforceability is considered in an action at law or a suit in equity), including the availability
of equitable remedies, and (C) procedural requirements of law applicable to the exercise of
creditors’ rights generally; and the registered holders of the Securities will be entitled to the
benefits of the Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement.

     H. The Guarantee by each Guarantor set forth in the Indenture has been duly authorized by such
Guarantor and, when the Indenture has been executed and delivered by the parties thereto as of the
Closing Date and the Securities have been delivered to and paid for by the Initial Purchasers in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement, will be a valid and binding obligation of such
Guarantor, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as the enforceability thereof may be
limited by (A) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or similar
laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (B) general principles of equity
(regardless of whether enforceability is considered in an action at law or a suit in equity),
including the availability of equitable remedies, and (C) procedural requirements of law applicable
to the exercise of creditors’ rights generally.

     I. Each of the Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement has been duly authorized,
executed and delivered by, and is a valid and binding agreement of, the Company and each Guarantor,
enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as the enforceability thereof may be limited by
(A) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or similar laws
affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (B) general principles of equity
(regardless of whether enforceability is considered in an action at law or a suit in equity),
including the availability of equitable remedies, (C) procedural requirements of law applicable to
the exercise of creditors’ rights generally, and (D) as to the Registration Rights Agreement, the
effect of public policy on the enforceability of provisions relating to indemnification or
contribution.

     J. The execution and delivery by the Company and each Guarantor of, and the performance by the
Company and each Guarantor of its obligations under, this Agreement, the Indenture, the
Registration Rights Agreement and the Securities will not contravene (A) any provision of law
applicable to the Company or any Guarantor, (B) the Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws, the
Articles of Organization or Operating Agreement of the Company or any of the Guarantors, as
applicable, (C) the terms of any agreement or other instrument to be listed on a schedule hereto,
or (D) to counsel’s knowledge, any judgment, order or decree of any governmental body, agency or
court having jurisdiction over the Company or any Guarantor, except, with respect to clauses (A)
and (C), to the extent that any contravention would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

     K. No consent, approval, authorization or order of, or qualification with, any governmental
body or agency is required for the performance by the Company or any Guarantor of its obligations
under this Agreement, the Indenture, the Registration Rights Agreement or the Securities, except
(A) such as have been obtained or as may be required by the securities or Blue Sky laws of the
various states in connection with the offer and sale of the Securities (as to which such counsel
need not express any opinion) and (B) by federal and state securities or Blue Sky laws with respect
to the Company’s and each Guarantor’s obligations under the Registration

A-2

 

Rights Agreement and as to which the failure to so obtain would not materially adversely
affect the ability of the Company or any Guarantor to perform its obligations under this Agreement,
the Indenture, the Registration Rights Agreement or the Securities.

     L. None of the Company or any Guarantor is, and after giving effect to the offering and sale
of the Securities and the application of the proceeds thereof as described in the Time of Sale
Memorandum and the Final Memorandum will be, required to register as an “investment company” as
such term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

     M. When the Securities are issued and delivered pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, none of
the Securities will be of the same class (within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act)
as securities of the Parent that are listed on a national securities exchange registered under
Section 6 of the Exchange Act or that are quoted in a United States automated inter-dealer
quotation system.

     N. The statements relating to legal matters, documents or proceedings included in the Time of
Sale Memorandum and the Final Memorandum under the captions “Description of Notes,” “Description of
Other Indebtedness” and “Transfer Restrictions,” in each case, fairly summarize, in all material
respects, such matters, documents or proceedings.

     O. The statements in the Time of Sale Memorandum and the Final Memorandum under the caption
“Material United States Federal Income Tax Considerations,” insofar as such statements constitute a
summary of the United States federal tax laws referred to therein, are accurate and fairly
summarize in all material respects the United States federal tax laws referred to therein.

     P. Each document filed pursuant to the Exchange Act and incorporated by reference in the Time
of Sale Memorandum and the Final Memorandum (except for the financial statements, notes thereto and
schedules and other financial and accounting information and data derived therefrom included or
incorporated by reference therein (collectively, the “Excluded Information”), as to which such we
express no opinion), on the date such document was filed with the Commission, complied as to form
in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the applicable rules and
regulations of the Commission thereunder.

     Q. Assuming (A) the accuracy of, and compliance with, the representations, warranties and
agreements of the Company, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers in this Agreement and (B) that
each person to whom the Initial Purchasers offer, sell or deliver the Securities is a qualified
institutional buyer as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act, or a person (other than a
U.S. person) outside the United States in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act, it is
not necessary in connection with the offer, sale and delivery of the Securities on the Closing Date
to the Initial Purchasers under this Agreement or in connection with the initial resale of such
Securities by the Initial Purchasers as contemplated by and in accordance with this Agreement to
register the Securities under the Securities Act or to qualify the Indenture under the Trust
Indenture Act of 1939, as amended.

     R. To such counsel’s knowledge, there are no legal or governmental proceedings pending or
threatened to which the Parent, the Company or any of the Subsidiaries is or may be a

A-3

 

party or to which any of the properties of the Parent, the Company or any of the Subsidiaries
is or may be subject that are required to be described in the Time of Sale Memorandum and the Final
Memorandum and are not so described or any statutes, regulations, contracts or other documents that
are required to be described in the Time of Sale Memorandum and the Final Memorandum that are not
described as required.

     In addition, such counsel shall state that nothing has come to the attention of such counsel
that causes such counsel to believe that the Time of Sale Memorandum (except for the Excluded
Information, as to which such counsel need not express any opinion), as of the Applicable Time, and
the Time of Sale Memorandum and the Final Memorandum (except for the Excluded Information, as to
which such counsel need not express any opinion) each as of its date or as of the Closing Date,
contained or contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a
material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading.

     With respect to the immediately preceding paragraph, Williams Mullen may state that their
beliefs are based upon their participation in the preparation of the Time of Sale Memorandum and
the Final Memorandum and any amendments or supplements thereto and review and discussion of the
contents thereof, but are without independent check or verification, except as specified.

EXHIBIT B-1

FORM OF OPINION OF ARGENTINA COUNSEL FOR THE COMPANY,

PURSUANT TO SECTION 5(D)

          1. Nextel Communications Argentina S.R.L. (“Nextel Argentina”) has been duly incorporated, is
validly existing as a limited liability company in good standing under the laws of the Republic of
Argentina, has the corporate power and authority to own its property and to conduct its business as
described in the Time of Sale Memorandum, the Final Memorandum and Form 10-K and is duly qualified
to transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the conduct of its
business or its ownership or leasing of property requires such qualification, except to the extent
that the failure to be so qualified or be in good standing would not have a material adverse effect
on Nextel Argentina;

          2. Nextel Argentina (i) has all necessary licenses, consents, authorizations, approvals,
orders, certificates and permits of and from, and has made all declarations and filings with, all
Argentine governmental, administrative or regulatory authorities, all self-regulatory organizations
and all courts and other tribunals, to own, lease, license and use its properties and assets and to
conduct its business in the manner described in or contemplated by the Time of Sale Memorandum, the
Final Memorandum and Form 10-K, including providing digital enhanced specialized mobile radio
services, except to the extent that the failure to obtain such consents, authorizations, approvals,
orders, certificates and permits or make such declarations and filings would not have a material
adverse effect on Nextel Argentina and (ii) has not received any notice of proceedings relating to
the violation, revocation or modification of any such license, consent, authorization, approval,
order, certificate or permit which, singly or in the aggregate, if the subject of an unfavorable
decision, ruling or finding, would reasonably be expected to result in a material adverse change in
the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business or operations of Nextel
Argentina, except as described in the Time of Sale Memorandum, the Final Memorandum and Form 10-K;
for the avoidance of any doubt it is clarified that the term “embargoes” used in the Time of Sale
Memorandum and the Final Memorandum under the caption “Risk Factors — Risk Factors Relating to Our
Company — Government regulations determine how we operate in various countries, which could limit
our growth and strategic plans.”, includes, exclusively in connection with Argentina, orders from
local governments and/or the judiciary seeking for cells to be modified or removed from its current
locations;

          3. The statements in (i) the Form 10-K under the captions “Business — Operating Companies —
Argentina — Regulatory and Legal Overview,” “Business — Operating Companies — Argentina —
Foreign Currency Controls and Dividends,” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations — Executive Overview — Argentine Contingencies,” and (ii) the
Time of Sale Memorandum and the Final Memorandum under the caption “Risk Factors — Risk Factors
Relating to Our Company — Government regulations determine how we operate in various countries,
which could limit our growth and strategic plans.” in each case insofar as such statements
constitute summaries of the Argentine legal matters, documents or proceedings related to Nextel
Argentina, are accurate in all material respects and fairly summarize all matters referred to
therein, and there are no material omissions

B-1-1

 

under such captions with respect to the description of statutes, rules or regulations that
would make the statements therein misleading; and

          4. There are no restrictions (legal, contractual or otherwise) on the ability of Nextel
Argentina, other than those described in the Time of Sale Memorandum, the Final Memorandum and Form
10-K, to: (i) declare and pay any dividends or make any payment to its stockholders; and (ii) to
transfer any property to its stockholders; and such restrictions as would not have a material
adverse effect on the prospects, condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business or
operations of the Company; and such descriptions, if any, fairly summarize such restrictions.

the distribution of the Securities or the Exchange Securities within the meaning of the Act; and

               (iii) such Holder is not an Affiliate of the Company or any of the Guarantors.

C-6

 

          (f) If any Initial Purchaser determines that it is prohibited by law or Commission policy from
participating in the Registered Exchange Offer with respect to the exchange of Securities
constituting any portion of an unsold allotment, at the request of such Initial Purchaser, the
Company and the Guarantors shall issue and deliver to the person purchasing Securities registered
under a Shelf Registration Statement as contemplated by Section 3 hereof from such Initial
Purchaser, in exchange for such Securities, a like principal amount of Exchange Securities.

     3. Shelf Registration. (a) If (i) due to any change in law or applicable
interpretations thereof by the Commission’s staff, the Company determines upon advice of its
outside counsel that it is not permitted to effect the Registered Exchange Offer as contemplated by
Section 2 hereof; (ii) the Registered Exchange Offer has not been consummated by the Exchange Date;
or (iii) any Holder notifies the Company within 30 days following the consummation of the
Registered Exchange Offer that (A) it is prohibited by law or Commission policy from participating
in the Registered Exchange Offer; (B) it may not resell the Exchange Securities acquired by it in
the Registered Exchange Offer to the public without delivering a prospectus and the prospectus
contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is not appropriate or available for such
resales; or (C) it is a broker-dealer and owns Securities acquired directly from the Company or an
affiliate of the Company, then the Company and the Guarantors shall effect a Shelf Registration
Statement in accordance with subsection (b) below.

          (b) (i) The Company and the Guarantors shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to
file with the Commission within 30 days after such filing obligation arises, but in no event
earlier than the 210th calendar day after the Closing Date, and shall use their respective
reasonable best efforts to cause to be declared effective under the Act within 75 days of such
filing, pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section 3, a Shelf Registration Statement relating to
the offer and sale of the Securities or the Exchange Securities, as applicable, by the Holders
thereof from time to time in accordance with the methods of distribution elected by such Holders
and set forth in such Shelf Registration Statement; provided, however, that no
Holder shall be entitled to have the Securities held by it covered by such Shelf Registration
Statement or be entitled to use a Prospectus forming a part thereof unless such Holder agrees in
writing to be bound by all of the provisions of this Agreement applicable to such Holder and has
returned to the Company a completed and signed selling securityholder questionnaire in reasonable
and customary form by the reasonable deadline for responses set forth therein; and provided
further, that with respect to Exchange Securities received by an Initial Purchaser in exchange for
Securities constituting any portion of an unsold allotment, the Company and the Guarantors may, if
permitted by current interpretations by the Commission’s staff, file a post-effective amendment to
the Exchange Offer Registration Statement containing the information required by Item 507 or 508 of
Regulation S-K, as applicable, in satisfaction of their obligations under this subsection with
respect thereto, and any such Exchange Offer Registration Statement, as so amended, shall be
referred to herein as, and governed by the provisions herein applicable to, a Shelf Registration
Statement.

          (ii) The Company and the Guarantors shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to keep
the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective, supplemented and amended as required by
the Act, in order to permit the Prospectus forming part thereof to be usable by Holders for a
period (the “Shelf Registration Period”) from the date the Shelf Registration Statement is declared
effective by the Commission until the first to occur of (A) the

C-7

 

date upon which all the Securities or Exchange Securities, as applicable, covered by the Shelf
Registration Statement have been sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, become Freely
Tradable or cease to be outstanding or (B) two years after the Closing Date.

          (iii) Subject to the provisions of Section 4 hereof, the Company and the Guarantors shall
cause the Shelf Registration Statement and the related Prospectus and any amendment or supplement
thereto, as of the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement or such amendment or
supplement, (A) to comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable requirements of
the Act; and (B) not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein (in the
case of the Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not
misleading.

     4. Additional Registration Procedures. In connection with any Shelf Registration
Statement and, to the extent applicable, any Exchange Offer Registration Statement, the following
provisions shall apply:

          (a) The Company and the Guarantors shall:

               (i) furnish to the Initial Purchasers, not less than five Business Days prior to the filing
thereof with the Commission, a copy of any Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any Shelf
Registration Statement, and each amendment thereof and each amendment or supplement, if any, to the
Prospectus included therein (but excluding all documents incorporated by reference therein after
the initial filing) and shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to reflect in each such
document, when so filed with the Commission, such comments as the Initial Purchasers reasonably
propose;

               (ii) include the information (as may be revised at the request or requirement of the
Commission) substantially in the form set forth in Annex A hereto on the facing page of the
Exchange Offer Registration Statement, in Annex B hereto in the forepart of the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement in a section setting forth details of the Registered Exchange Offer, in
Annex C hereto in the underwriting or plan of distribution section of the Prospectus contained in
the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, and in Annex D hereto in the letter of transmittal
delivered pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer;

               (iii) if requested by an Initial Purchaser, include the information required by Item 507 or
508 of Regulation S-K, as applicable, in the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement; and

               (iv) in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, include the names of the Holders (to the
extent provided by such Holders) that propose to sell Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration
Statement as selling security holders; provided that, the Company shall not be required to include
the name of any Holder that has not complied with the requirements set forth in Section 3(b)(i)
hereof.

          (b) Subject to the following provisions of this Section 4, the Company and the Guarantors
shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to ensure that:

C-8

 

               (i) any Registration Statement and any amendment thereto and any Prospectus forming a part
thereof and any amendment or supplement thereto complies as to form in all material respects with
the Act; and

               (ii) any Registration Statement and any amendment thereto does not, as of the effective date
of the Registration Statement or such amendment, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or
omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein (in the case of the Prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made)
not misleading.

          (c) The Company and the Guarantors shall advise the Initial Purchasers, the Holders of
Securities covered by any Shelf Registration Statement and any Exchanging Dealer under any Exchange
Offer Registration Statement that has provided in writing to the Company or any Guarantor a
telephone or facsimile number and address for notices (a “Known Exchanging Dealer”), and, if
requested by the Initial Purchasers or any such Holder or Known Exchanging Dealer, shall confirm
such advice in writing (which notice pursuant to clauses (ii)-(v) hereof shall be accompanied by an
instruction to suspend the use of the Prospectus until the Company and the Guarantors shall have
remedied the basis for such suspension):

               (i) when the relevant Registration Statement and any amendment thereto has been filed with the
Commission and when the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become
effective;

               (ii) of any request by the Commission for any amendment or supplement to the Registration
Statement or the Prospectus or for additional information;

               (iii) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the
Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceeding for that purpose;

               (iv) of the receipt by the Company or the Guarantors of any notification with respect to the
suspension of the qualification of the securities included therein for sale in any jurisdiction or
the initiation of any proceeding for such purpose; and

               (v) at a time when a Prospectus is required to be delivered under the Act, of the happening of
any event that requires any change in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus so that, as of
such date, they (A) do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact and (B) do not omit to
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in
the case of the Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not
misleading.

          (d) The Company and the Guarantors shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to
prevent the issuance of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the
qualification of the securities therein for sale in any jurisdiction, and if issued to obtain as
soon as possible the withdrawal thereof.

C-9

 

          (e) The Company and the Guarantors shall furnish, upon written request, to each Holder of
Securities covered by any Shelf Registration Statement, without charge, at least one copy of such
Shelf Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto.

          (f) The Company and the Guarantors shall, during the Shelf Registration Period, deliver to
each Holder of Securities covered by any Shelf Registration Statement, without charge, as many
copies of the Prospectus (including the preliminary Prospectus) included in such Shelf Registration
Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto as such Holder may reasonably request. Subject
to the provisions of this Section 4, the Company and the Guarantors consent to the use of the
Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling Holders of Securities in
connection with the offering and sale of the Securities covered by the Prospectus, or any amendment
or supplement thereto, included in the Shelf Registration Statement (in each case, if such Holder
is properly named in such Prospectus, as amended and supplemented), except during any suspension
period referred to in Section 4(c) above or Section 4(k) below.

          (g) The Company and the Guarantors shall furnish to each Exchanging Dealer which so requests,
without charge, at least one copy of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any
post-effective amendment thereto.

          (h) The Company and the Guarantors shall promptly deliver to each Initial Purchaser, each
Exchanging Dealer and each other person required to deliver a Prospectus during the Exchange Offer
Registration Period, without charge, as many copies of the Prospectus included in such Exchange
Offer Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto as any such person may
reasonably request. Subject to the provisions of this Section 4, the Company and the Guarantors
consent to the use of the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by any Initial
Purchaser, any Exchanging Dealer and any such other person that may be required to deliver a
Prospectus following the Registered Exchange Offer in connection with the offering and sale of the
Exchange Securities covered by the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, included in
the Exchange Offer Registration Statement (in each case, if such Initial Purchaser, Exchanging
Dealer or other person is properly named in such Prospectus, as amended and supplemented), except
during any suspension period referred to in Section 4(c) above or Section 4(k) below.

          (i) Prior to the Registered Exchange Offer or any other offering of Securities pursuant to any
Registration Statement, the Company and the Guarantors shall arrange, if necessary, for the
qualification of the Securities or the Exchange Securities for sale under the laws of such
jurisdictions as any Holder shall reasonably request and shall maintain such qualification in
effect so long as required; provided that in no event shall the Company or any Guarantor be
obligated to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or to
take any action that would subject it to service of process in suits, other than those arising out
of the Initial Placement, the Registered Exchange Offer or any offering pursuant to a Shelf
Registration Statement, in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject, or to subject
itself to taxation in any jurisdiction where it is not now subject.

          (j) The Company and the Guarantors shall cooperate with the Holders of Securities to
facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Exchange

C-10

 

Securities or Securities to be issued or sold pursuant to any Registration Statement free of
any restrictive legends and in such denominations and registered in such names as Holders may
request.

          (k) (i) Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by subsections (c)(ii) through (v)
above or subsection (k)(ii) below, the Company and the Guarantors shall promptly (or within the
time period provided for by clause (ii) hereof, if applicable) prepare and file a post-effective
amendment to the applicable Registration Statement or an amendment or supplement to the related
Prospectus or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to the Initial
Purchasers of the securities included therein, the Prospectus will not include an untrue statement
of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading. In such circumstances, the Exchange Offer Registration Period and the Shelf
Registration Period shall be extended by the number of days from and including the date of the
giving of a notice of suspension pursuant to Section 4(c) or Section 4(k)(ii), as applicable, to
and including the date when the Initial Purchasers, the Holders of the Securities covered by any
Shelf Registration Statement and any Known Exchanging Dealer shall have received such amended or
supplemented Prospectus pursuant to this Section or shall have been advised in writing by the
Company and the Guarantors that the Prospectus may be used.

               (ii) Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by subsections (c)(ii) through (v) above,
or the occurrence or existence of any pending corporate development or any other material event
that, in the reasonable judgment of NII Holdings, Inc. (the “Parent”), makes it appropriate to
suspend the availability of a Registration Statement and the related Prospectus, the Parent shall
give notice (without notice of the nature or details of such events) to the Holders of the
Securities covered by any Shelf Registration Statement, the Initial Purchasers and any Known
Exchanging Dealer, as applicable, that the Registration Statement is suspended and, upon actual
receipt of any such notice, each such Holder, Initial Purchaser and Exchanging Dealer, as
applicable, agrees not to sell any Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement
until such Holder, Initial Purchaser or Exchanging Dealer, as applicable, shall have received such
amended or supplemented Prospectus pursuant to this Section or have been advised in writing by the
Parent that the Prospectus may be used. The period during which the availability of the Shelf
Registration and any Prospectus is suspended (the “Deferral Period”) shall not exceed 45 days in
any three-month period or 90 days in any twelve-month period.

          (l) The Company and the Guarantors shall comply in all material respects with all applicable
rules and regulations of the Commission and shall make generally available to its security holders
an earnings statement satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Act as soon as practicable
after the effective date of the applicable Registration Statement.

          (m) The Company and the Guarantors may require each Holder of Registrable Securities to be
sold pursuant to any Registration Statement to furnish to the Company and the Guarantors such
information regarding the Holder and the distribution of such securities as the Company and the
Guarantors may from time to time reasonably require for inclusion in such Registration Statement,
including such information requested or required by the Commission. The Company and the Guarantors
may exclude from such Registration Statement the Registrable Securities of any Holder that fails to
furnish such information within a reasonable time after such

C-11

 

request. Each Holder as to which Registrable Securities are being included in a Registration
Statement agrees to furnish to the Company all information with respect to such Holder necessary to
make any information previously furnished to the Company by such Holder pursuant to this Section
4(m) or otherwise not materially misleading.

          (n) In the case of any Shelf Registration Statement, the Company and the Guarantors shall
enter into reasonable and customary agreements (including, if requested, an underwriting agreement
in reasonable and customary form) and take all other reasonably appropriate actions in order to
expedite or facilitate the registration or the disposition of the Securities, and in connection
therewith, if an underwriting agreement is entered into, cause the same to contain indemnification
provisions and procedures no less favorable than those set forth in Section 6 hereof.

          (o) In the case of any Shelf Registration Statement, the Company and the Guarantors shall, if
requested:

               (i) subject to the execution of confidentiality agreements reasonably satisfactory to the
Parent, upon reasonable prior written notice and during regular business hours, make reasonably
available for inspection by the Holders of Securities to be registered thereunder, any Underwriter
participating in any disposition pursuant to such Registration Statement, and any attorney,
accountant or other agent retained by the Holders or any such Underwriter, at the Parent’s
principal place of business, all relevant financial and other records and pertinent corporate
documents of the Parent and its subsidiaries reasonably requested by the Holders or any such
Underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with any such Registration Statement as is
customary for similar due diligence examinations; provided, however, that with
respect to any attorney engaged by the Holders or any Underwriter, the foregoing inspection and
information gathering shall be coordinated by one counsel designated by the Holders and one counsel
designated by the Underwriter or Underwriters;

               (ii) subject to the execution of confidentiality agreements reasonably satisfactory to the
Parent, upon reasonable prior written notice and during regular business hours, cause the Parent’s
officers, employees, accountants and auditors to supply, at the Parent’s principal place of
business, all relevant information reasonably requested by the Holders or any such Underwriter,
attorney, accountant or agent in connection with any such Registration Statement as is customary
for similar due diligence examinations; provided, however, that with respect to any
attorney engaged by the Holders or any Underwriter, the foregoing inspection and information
gathering shall be coordinated by one counsel designated by the Holders and one counsel designated
by the Underwriter or Underwriters;

               (iii) in connection with an underwritten offering pursuant to such Shelf Registration
Statement, make such representations and warranties to the Underwriters, in form, substance and
scope as are reasonably and customarily made by issuers to underwriters in primary underwritten
offerings and covering matters including, but not limited to, those set forth in the Purchase
Agreement;

               (iv) in connection with an underwritten offering pursuant to such Shelf Registration
Statement, use reasonable best efforts to obtain opinions of counsel to the Company

C-12

 

and the Guarantors and updates thereof (which counsel and opinions (in form, scope and
substance) shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Managing Underwriters, if any) addressed to the
Underwriters, covering such matters concerning the Company and the Guarantors as are customarily
covered in opinions requested in underwritten offerings and such other matters as may be reasonably
requested by such Underwriters;

               (v) in connection with an underwritten public offering pursuant to such Shelf Registration
Statement, use reasonable best efforts to obtain “comfort” letters and updates thereof from the
independent certified public accountants of the Parent (and, if necessary, any other independent
certified public accountants of any subsidiary of the Parent or of any business acquired by the
Parent for which financial statements and financial data are, or are required to be, included in
the Registration Statement), addressed to the Underwriters, in customary form reasonably acceptable
to such independent certified public accountants and covering matters of the type customarily
covered in “comfort” letters in connection with primary underwritten offerings; and

               (vi) deliver such documents and certificates as may be reasonably requested by the Managing
Underwriters, including those to evidence compliance with Section 4(k) and with any customary
conditions contained in the underwriting agreement or any other customary agreement entered into by
the Company in connection therewith.

The actions set forth in clauses (iii), (iv), (v) and (vi) of this paragraph (o) shall be performed
at each closing under any underwriting or similar customary agreement as and to the extent required
thereunder.

          (p) In the case of any Exchange Offer Registration Statement, the Company and the Guarantors
shall, if requested by an Initial Purchaser, or by a Broker-Dealer that holds Securities that were
acquired as a result of market making or other trading activities:

               (i) subject to the execution of confidentiality agreements reasonably satisfactory to the
Parent, upon reasonable prior written notice and during regular business hours, make reasonably
available for inspection by the requesting party, and any attorney, accountant or other agent
retained by the requesting party, at the Parent’s principal place of business, all relevant
financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Parent and its
subsidiaries reasonably requested by the requesting party or any such attorney, accountant or agent
in connection with any such Registration Statement as is customary for similar due diligence
examinations; and

               (ii) subject to the execution of confidentiality agreements reasonably satisfactory to the
Parent, upon reasonable prior written notice and during regular business hours, cause the Parent’s
officers, employees, accountants and auditors to supply, at the Parent’s principal place of
business, all relevant information reasonably requested by the requesting party, and any attorney,
accountant or other agent retained by the requesting party in connection with any such Registration
Statement as is customary for similar due diligence examinations.

          (q) If a Registered Exchange Offer is to be consummated, upon delivery of the Securities by
Holders to the Company (or to such other person as directed by the Company)

C-13

 

in exchange for the Exchange Securities, the Company and the Guarantors shall mark, or caused
to be marked, on the Securities so exchanged that such Securities are being cancelled in exchange
for the Exchange Securities. In no event shall the Securities be marked as paid or otherwise
satisfied.

          (r) In the event that any Broker-Dealer shall underwrite any Securities or participate as a
member of an underwriting syndicate or selling group or “assist in the distribution” (within the
meaning of the FINRA Rules) thereof, whether as a Holder of such Securities or as an Underwriter, a
placement or sales agent or a broker or dealer in respect thereof, or otherwise, the Company and
the Guarantors shall provide reasonable assistance to such Broker-Dealer in making filings in
accordance with the FINRA Rules.

          (s) The Company and the Guarantors shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to take
all other steps necessary to effect the registration of the Securities or the Exchange Securities,
as the case may be, covered by a Registration Statement.

     5. Registration Expenses. The Company and the Guarantors shall bear all expenses
incurred in connection with the performance of their obligations under Sections 2, 3 and 4 hereof
and, in the event of any Shelf Registration Statement, will reimburse the Holders for the
reasonable fees and disbursements of one firm of counsel (which shall initially be Shearman &
Sterling LLP, but which may be another nationally recognized law firm experienced in securities
matters designated by the Majority Holders) in connection with the preparation, filing and
effectiveness of such Shelf Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holders of
the Securities or Exchange Securities being registered shall pay all agency fees and commissions
and underwriting discounts, commissions and costs attributable to the sale of such Registrable
Securities and the fees and disbursements of any counsel or other advisors or experts retained by
or on behalf of such Holders (severally or jointly), other than the counsel specifically referred
to above.

     6 Indemnification and Contribution. (a) The Company and the Guarantors, jointly and
severally, agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder of Securities or Exchange Securities,
as the case may be, covered by any Registration Statement, each Initial Purchaser and, with respect
to any Prospectus delivery as contemplated in Section 4(h) hereof, each Exchanging Dealer, the
directors, officers, employees, Affiliates and agents of each such Holder, Initial Purchaser or
Exchanging Dealer and each person who controls any such Holder, Initial Purchaser or Exchanging
Dealer within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against
any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any of them
may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or
regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or
actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement as originally filed or in any
amendment thereof, or in any preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, or in any amendment thereof
or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state
therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein
(in the case of any preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances
under which they were made) not misleading, and agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, as
incurred, for any legal or other expenses

C-14

 

reasonably incurred by it in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim,
damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company and any Guarantor
will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability
arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished
to the Company or any Guarantor by or on behalf of the party claiming indemnification specifically
for inclusion therein. This indemnity agreement shall be in addition to any liability that the
Company and any Guarantor may otherwise have.

          The Company and the Guarantors also, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify as provided in
this Section 6(a) or contribute as provided in Section 6(d) hereof to Losses of each Underwriter,
if any, of Securities or Exchange Securities, as the case may be, registered under a Shelf
Registration Statement, their directors, officers, employees, Affiliates and agents and each person
who controls such Underwriter on substantially the same basis as that of the indemnification of the
Initial Purchasers and the selling Holders provided in this Section 6(a) and shall, if requested by
any Holder, enter into an underwriting agreement reflecting such agreement, as provided in Section
4(n) hereof.

     (b) Each Holder of securities covered by a Registration Statement (including each Initial
Purchaser as a Holder, in such capacity) severally and not jointly agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless the Company and the Guarantors, each of their respective directors, officers, employees,
Affiliates and agents and each person who controls the Company or any Guarantor within the meaning
of either the Act or the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the
Company and the Guarantors to each such Holder, but only with reference to written information
relating to such Holder furnished to the Company or any Guarantor by or on behalf of such Holder
specifically for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity. This indemnity
agreement will be in addition to any liability that any such Holder may otherwise have.

     (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 6 or notice of the
commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be
made against the indemnifying party under this Section, notify the indemnifying party in writing of
the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve
it from liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent such failure results in
the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses; and (ii) will not, in
any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than
the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above. The indemnifying party
shall be entitled to appoint counsel (including local counsel) of the indemnifying party’s choice
at the indemnifying party’s expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which
indemnification is sought (in which case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible
for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel, other than local counsel if not appointed by the
indemnifying party, retained by the indemnified party or parties except as set forth below);
provided, however, that such counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the
indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s election to appoint counsel (including
local counsel) to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have
the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall
bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate

C-15

 

counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the
indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest; (ii) the actual or
potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the
indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be
legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or
additional to those available to the indemnifying party; (iii) the indemnifying party shall not
have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified
party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action; or (iv) the
indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense
of the indemnifying party; provided that, in each case, not more than one such separate counsel
shall be employed for all indemnified parties. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior
written consent of the indemnified parties (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed), settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect
to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification
or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or
potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i)
includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such
claim, action, suit or proceeding, and (ii) does not include any statement as to or an admission of
fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party. In addition, no
indemnified party shall, without the written consent of the indemnifying party (such consent not to
be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), effect the settlement or compromise of, or
consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in
respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder.

     (d) In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section is
unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party for any reason, then each
applicable indemnifying party shall have a joint and several obligation to contribute to the
aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred in connection with investigating or defending any loss, claim, liability, damage or
action) (collectively “Losses”) to which such indemnified party may be subject in such proportion
as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by such indemnifying party, on the one
hand, and such indemnified party, on the other hand, from the Initial Placement and the
Registration Statement which resulted in such Losses; provided, however, that in no
case shall any Initial Purchaser be responsible, in the aggregate, for any amount in excess of the
purchase discount or commission applicable to such Securities, or in the case of an Exchange
Security, as applicable to such Exchange Securities, as set forth in the Final Memorandum, nor
shall any Underwriter be responsible for any amount in excess of the underwriting discount or
commission applicable to the securities purchased by such Underwriter under the Registration
Statement which resulted in such Losses. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding
sentence is unavailable for any reason, the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall
contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also
the relative fault of such indemnifying party, on the one hand, and such indemnified party, on the
other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses as well as
any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors
shall be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from the Initial Placement (before deducting
expenses) as set forth in the Final Memorandum. Benefits received by the Initial Purchasers shall
be deemed to be equal to the total purchase

C-16

 

discounts and commissions as set forth on the cover page of the Final Memorandum, and benefits
received by any other Holders shall be deemed to be equal to the value of receiving Securities or
Exchange Securities, as applicable, registered under the Act. Benefits received by any Underwriter
shall be deemed to be equal to the total underwriting discounts and commissions, as set forth on
the cover page of the Prospectus forming a part of the Registration Statement which resulted in
such Losses. Relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any
untrue or any alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state
a material fact relates to information provided by the indemnifying party, on the one hand, or by
the indemnified party, on the other hand, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge,
access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The
parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata
allocation (even if the Holders were treated as one entity for such purpose) or any other method of
allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (d), no person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to
contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes
of this Section, each person who controls a Holder within the meaning of either the Act or the
Exchange Act and each director, officer, employee and agent of such Holder shall have the same
rights to contribution as such Holder, and each person who controls the Company or any Guarantor
within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, each director, officer, employee,
Affiliate and agent of either the Company or any Guarantor shall have the same rights to
contribution as the Company or any Guarantor, subject in each case to the applicable terms and
conditions of this paragraph (d).

     (e) The provisions of this Section will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any
investigation made by or on behalf of any Holder or the Company or any Guarantor or any of the
indemnified parties referred to in this Section 6, and will survive the sale by a Holder of
securities covered by a Registration Statement.

     7. Underwritten Registrations. (a) If any of the Securities or Exchange Securities,
as the case may be, covered by any Shelf Registration Statement are to be sold in an underwritten
offering, the Managing Underwriters shall be selected by the Majority Holders, such selection to be
subject to the Company’s prior written approval, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed.

     (b) No person may participate in any underwritten offering pursuant to any Shelf Registration
Statement, unless such person (i) agrees to sell such person’s Securities or Exchange Securities,
as the case may be, on the basis reasonably provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by
the persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements; and (ii) completes and executes all
questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents
reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

     8. Registration Defaults and Additional Interest. If (a) the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement has not been filed with the Commission by the 210th calendar day after the
Closing Date, (b) on or prior to the Exchange Date, the Registered Exchange Offer has not been
consummated, (c) on or prior to the 75th day after the filing of a Shelf Registration

C-17

 

Statement, such Shelf Registration Statement has not been declared effective, or (d) after the
Shelf Registration Statement or the Exchange Offer Registration Statement has been declared
effective, such Registration Statement thereafter ceases to be effective or usable in connection
with resales or exchanges of Securities or Exchange Securities in accordance with and during the
periods specified in this Agreement (other than as permitted pursuant to Section 4(c) or Section
4(k)(ii))(each such event referred to in clauses (a) through (d), (a “Registration Default”),
interest (“Additional Interest”) will accrue, and be paid as liquidated damages, on the principal
amount of the Securities and the Exchange Securities that are not Freely Tradable (“Restricted
Securities”) (in addition to the stated interest on such Restricted Securities) from and including
the date on which any such Registration Default shall occur to but excluding the date that is the
earlier of (i) the date on which all Registration Defaults have been cured or (ii) the date such
Restricted Securities become Freely Tradable. Additional Interest will accrue at a rate of 0.25%
per annum during the 90-day period immediately following the occurrence of such Registration
Default and shall increase by 0.25% per annum at the end of each subsequent 90-day period, but in
no event shall such rate exceed 1.00% per annum. If, after the cure of all Registration Defaults
then in effect, there is a subsequent Registration Default, the rate of Additional Interest for
such subsequent Registration Default shall initially be 0.25% regardless of the rate in effect with
respect to any prior Registration Default at the time of cure of such Registration Default.

          All obligations of the Company and the Guarantors set forth in the preceding paragraph that
are outstanding with respect to any Security at the time such Security is exchanged for an Exchange
Security shall survive until such time as all such obligations with respect to such Security have
been satisfied in full.

     9. No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company and the Guarantors have not entered into,
and agree not to enter into, any agreement with respect to its securities that is inconsistent with
the rights granted to the Holders herein or that otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof.

     10. Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement may not be amended,
qualified, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions
hereof may not be given at any time, unless the Company and the Guarantors have obtained the
written consent of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Registrable
Securities then outstanding; provided that, with respect to any matter that directly or indirectly
affects the rights of any Initial Purchaser hereunder, the Company and the Guarantors shall obtain
the written consent of each such Initial Purchaser against which such amendment, qualification,
supplement, waiver or consent is to be effective; provided, further, that no
amendment, qualification, supplement, waiver or consent with respect to Section 8 hereof shall be
effective as against any Holder of Registrable Securities unless consented to in writing by such
Holder; and provided, further, that the provisions of this Section 10 may not be
amended, qualified, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the
provisions hereof may not be given, unless the Company and the Guarantors have obtained the written
consent of each Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing (except the foregoing provisos), a waiver or
consent to departure from the provisions hereof with respect to a matter that relates exclusively
to the rights of Holders whose Securities or Exchange Securities, as the case may be, are being
sold pursuant to a Registration Statement and that does not directly or indirectly affect the
rights of other Holders in any material respect may be given by the Majority Holders,

C-18

 

determined on the basis of Securities or Exchange Securities, as the case may be, being sold
rather than registered under such Registration Statement.

     11. Notices. All notices and other communications provided for or permitted hereunder
shall be made in writing by hand-delivery, first-class mail, telex, telecopier or air courier
guaranteeing overnight delivery:

          (a) if to a Holder, at the most current address given by such holder to the Company in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 11, which address initially is, with respect to each
Holder, the address of such Holder maintained by the registrar under the Indenture;

          (b) if to the Initial Purchasers, initially at the address or addresses set forth in the
Purchase Agreement; and

          (c) if to the Company or any Guarantor, initially at its address set forth in the Purchase
Agreement.

          All such notices and communications shall be deemed to have been duly given when received.

          The Initial Purchasers, the Company and the Guarantors by notice to the other parties may
designate additional or different addresses for subsequent notices or communications.

     12. Remedies. Each Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights
provided to it herein, in the Indenture or in the Purchase Agreement (if an Initial Purchaser) or
granted by law, including recovery of liquidated or other damages, will be entitled to specific
performance of its rights under this Agreement. The Company and the Guarantors agree that monetary
damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the
provisions of this Agreement and hereby agrees to waive in any action for specific performance the
defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

     13. Successors. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the
parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns, including, without the need for an express
assignment or any consent by the Company or any Guarantor thereto, subsequent Holders of Securities
and the Exchange Securities, and the indemnified persons referred to in Section 6 hereof. The
Company and the Guarantors hereby agree to extend the benefits of this Agreement to any Holder of
Securities and the Exchange Securities, and any such Holder may specifically enforce the provisions
of this Agreement as if an original party hereto.

     14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in one or more counterparts, each of
which shall constitute an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same
agreement.

     15. Headings. The section headings used herein are for convenience only and shall not
affect the construction hereof.

C-19

 

     16. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts made and to be performed in the
State of New York. The parties hereto each hereby waive any right to trial by jury in any action,
proceeding or counterclaim arising out of or relating to this Agreement.

     17. Severability. In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained
herein, or the application thereof in any circumstances, is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable
in any respect for any reason, the validity, legality and enforceability of any such provision in
every other respect and of the remaining provisions hereof shall not be in any way impaired or
affected thereby, it being intended that all of the rights and privileges of the parties shall be
enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

     18. Securities Held by the Company, etc. Whenever the consent or approval of Holders
of a specified percentage of principal amount of Securities or Exchange Securities is required
hereunder, Securities or Exchange Securities, as applicable, held by the Company, the Guarantors or
any of their respective Affiliates (other than subsequent Holders of Securities or Exchange
Securities if such subsequent Holders are deemed to be Affiliates solely by reason of their
holdings of such Securities or Exchange Securities) shall not be counted in determining whether
such consent or approval was given by the Holders of such required percentage.
