indefeasible, unconditional, full and complete payment or discharge of all of the Securities
guaranteed hereby.

     SECTION 2.6 Reinstatement. This Guarantee shall continue to be effective, or be
automatically reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, made by

must otherwise be restored or returned by the Trustee or any Holder of such Securities for any
reason whatsoever, whether upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or
reorganization of the Company, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor

consequences (other than a default in any payment required hereunder); provided, however, that (i)
the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Guarantee, (ii) the

take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction;
and (d) notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Holder of a Security shall have the
right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, to enforce its rights under this
Guarantee without first instituting a legal proceeding against the Trustee, the Company or any
other Person.

     SECTION 5.3 Remedies Not Exclusive. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to
the Trustee or Holders of the Securities is intended to be exclusive of any other available remedy
or remedies, but, to the maximum extent permitted by law, each and every such remedy shall be
cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given under this Guarantee or now or
hereafter existing at law or in equity. No delay or omission to exercise any right or power
accruing upon any default, omission or failure of performance hereunder shall impair any such right
or power or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof, but any such right or power may be exercised
from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. In order to entitle the Trustee and
Holders of the Securities to exercise any remedy reserved to them in this Guarantee, to the maximum
extent permitted by applicable law, it shall not be necessary to give any notice. In the event any
provision contained in this Guarantee should be breached, and thereafter duly waived, such waiver
shall be limited to the particular breach so waived and shall not be deemed to waive any other
breach hereunder. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, no waiver, amendment, release
or modification of this Guarantee shall be established by conduct, custom or course of dealing, but
solely by an instrument in writing duly executed by the parties to this Guarantee.

     SECTION 5.4 Limitation of Guarantor’s Liability. Any term or provision of this
Guarantee notwithstanding, the maximum aggregate amount of the obligations guaranteed hereunder by
the Guarantor shall not exceed the maximum amount that can be hereby guaranteed by the Guarantor
without rendering this Guarantee void or voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent
conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

     SECTION 5.5 Entire Agreement; Counterparts; Successors and Assigns. This Guarantee
constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both
written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and may be executed
simultaneously in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which
together shall constitute one and the same instrument. To the maximum extent permitted by
applicable law, this Guarantee shall be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the
Guarantor and shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each of the Holders and
the Trustee and its respective successors and permitted assigns.

     SECTION 5.6 Severability. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any
provision of this Guarantee which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to
such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without
invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

9

 

     SECTION 5.7 Governing Law. THIS GUARANTEE HAS BEEN DELIVERED IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK
AND SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK,
INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE, AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND
REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS. This Guarantee
is subject to the Trust Indenture Act, and if any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts
with a provision of the Trust Indenture Act that is required by the Trust Indenture Act to be a
part of and govern this Guarantee, the latter provision shall control. If any provision of this
Guarantee modifies or excludes any provision of the Trust Indenture Act that may be so modified or
excluded, the latter provision shall be deemed to apply to this Guarantee as so modified, or to be
excluded, as the case may be, whether or not such provision of this Guarantee refers expressly to
such provision of the Trust Indenture Act.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Guarantor has caused this Guarantee to be executed in its corporate
name, as of the date first above written.

Securities may have against the Company until all of the Securities guaranteed hereby shall have
been finally, indefeasibly and unconditionally paid in full. Any claim of the Guarantor against the
Company arising from payments made by the Guarantor by reason of this Guarantee shall be in all
respects subordinated to

5

 

the final, indefeasible, unconditional, full and complete payment or discharge of all of the
Securities guaranteed hereby.

     SECTION 2.6 Reinstatement. This Guarantee shall continue to be effective, or be
automatically reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, made by
or on behalf of the Company or the Guarantor in respect of any of the Securities is rescinded or
must otherwise be restored or returned by the Trustee or any Holder of such Securities for any
reason whatsoever, whether upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or
reorganization of the Company, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor
or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for the Company or any substantial part of its
properties, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

     SECTION 2.7 Rights of Holders. The Guarantor expressly acknowledges that: (a) this
Guarantee will be deposited with the Trustee to be held for the benefits of the Holders of the
Securities; (b) the Trustee has the right to enforce this Guarantee on behalf of the Holders of the
Securities; (c) the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities (voting as a class) shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of
conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power
conferred on it with respect to this Guarantee, or to waive any default hereunder and its
consequences (other than a default in any payment required hereunder); provided, however, that (i)
the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Guarantee, (ii) the
Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that is unduly prejudicial to the rights of the Holders
of the Securities not consenting, or that would in the good faith judgment of the Trustee have a
substantial likelihood of involving the Trustee in personal liability and (iii) the Trustee may
take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction;
and (d) notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Holder of a Security shall have the
right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, to enforce its rights under this
Guarantee without first instituting a legal proceeding against the Trustee, the Company or any
other Person.

shall arise absolutely and unconditionally upon the date of the initial delivery of and
authentication of the Securities. Subject to Section 2.6, this Guarantee shall terminate on such
date as the Indenture is discharged and satisfied as to the Securities.

     SECTION 5.3 Remedies Not Exclusive. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the
Trustee or Holders of the Securities is intended to be exclusive of any other available remedy or
remedies, but, to the maximum extent permitted by law, each and every such remedy shall be
cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given under this Guarantee or now or
hereafter existing at law or in equity. No delay or omission to exercise any right or power
accruing upon any default, omission or failure of performance hereunder shall impair any such right
or power or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof, but any such right or power may be exercised
from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. In order to entitle the Trustee and
Holders of the Securities to exercise any remedy reserved to them in this Guarantee, to the maximum
extent permitted by applicable law, it shall not be necessary to give any notice. In the event any
provision contained in this Guarantee should be breached, and thereafter duly waived, such waiver
shall be limited to the particular breach so waived and shall not be deemed to waive any other
breach hereunder. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, no waiver, amendment, release
or modification of this Guarantee shall be established by conduct, custom or course of dealing, but
solely by an instrument in writing duly executed by the parties to this Guarantee.

     SECTION 5.4 Entire Agreement; Counterparts; Successors and Assigns. This Guarantee
constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both
written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and may be executed
simultaneously in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which
together shall constitute one and the same instrument. To the maximum extent permitted by
applicable law, this Guarantee shall be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the
Guarantor and shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each of the Holders and
the Trustee and its respective successors and permitted assigns.

     SECTION 5.5 Severability. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any
provision of this Guarantee which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to
such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without
invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

     SECTION 5.6 Governing Law. THIS GUARANTEE HAS BEEN DELIVERED IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK
AND SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK,
INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE, AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND
REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS. This Guarantee
is subject to the Trust Indenture Act, and if any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts
with a provision of the Trust Indenture Act that is

9

 

required by the Trust Indenture Act to be a part of and govern this Guarantee, the latter
provision shall control. If any provision of this Guarantee modifies or excludes any provision of
the Trust Indenture Act that may be so modified or excluded, the latter provision shall be deemed
to apply to this Guarantee as so modified, or to be excluded, as the case may be, whether or not
such provision of this Guarantee refers expressly to such provision of the Trust Indenture Act.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Guarantor has caused this Guarantee to be executed in its corporate
name, as of the date first above written.
