£80,000,000 4.68% Series H Senior Notes Due September 17, 2020

As of September 17, 2010

	 	 	To each of the Purchasers

	 	 	listed in Schedule A hereto:

Ladies and Gentlemen:

AMETEK, INC., a Delaware corporation (together with its permitted successors and assigns
hereunder, the “Company”), agrees with each of the purchasers whose names appear at the end hereof
(each, a “Purchaser” and, collectively, the “Purchasers”) as follows:

	1.	 	THE NOTES.

The Company will authorize the issue and sale of £80,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its
4.68% Series H Senior Notes due September 17, 2020 (including any amendments, restatements or
modifications from time to time thereof and all notes delivered in substitution or exchange for any
such note pursuant to this Agreement, the “Notes”). The Notes shall be substantially in the form
set out in Exhibit 1. Certain capitalized and other terms used in this Agreement are
defined in Schedule B; references to a “Schedule” or an “Exhibit”, unless otherwise specified,
refer to a Schedule or an Exhibit attached to this Agreement.

	2.	 	SALE AND PURCHASE OF NOTES.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company will issue and sell to each
Purchaser and each Purchaser will purchase from the Company, at the Closing provided for in
Section 3, Notes in the principal amount specified below such Purchaser’s name in Schedule A at the
purchase price of 100% of the principal amount thereof. The Purchasers’ obligations hereunder are
several and not joint obligations and no Purchaser shall have any liability to any Person for the
performance or non-performance of any obligation by any other Purchaser hereunder.

	3.	 	CLOSING.

3.1. Closing.

The sale and purchase of the Notes shall occur at a closing (the “Closing”) on September 17,
2010 or on such later Business Day on or before September 22, 2010 as may be agreed upon by the
Company and the Purchasers (the date of the Closing being referred to herein as the “Closing Date”)
at the offices of Bingham McCutchen LLP, 399 Park Avenue, New York, New York 10022 at 10:00 a.m.,
local time. At the Closing, the Company will deliver to each Purchaser the Notes to be purchased
by such Purchaser at the Closing in the form of a single Note (or such greater number of Notes in
denominations of at least £500,000 as such Purchaser may request), dated the Closing Date and
registered in such Purchaser’s name (or in the name of its nominee), against delivery by such
Purchaser to the Company or its order of immediately available funds in the amount of the purchase
price therefor by wire transfer of immediately available funds for the account of the Company as
set forth in the funding instructions required by Section 4.10.

3.2. Failure of the Company to Deliver; Failure to Satisfy Closing Conditions.

If at the Closing the Company shall fail to tender the Notes to any Purchaser as provided
above in this Section 3, or any of the conditions specified in Section 4 shall not have been
fulfilled to such Purchaser’s reasonable satisfaction, such Purchaser shall, at its election, be
relieved of all further obligations under this Agreement, without thereby waiving any rights such
Purchaser may have by reason of such failure or such nonfulfillment.

	4.	 	CONDITIONS TO CLOSING.

Each Purchaser’s obligation to purchase and pay for the Notes to be sold to such Purchaser on
the Closing Date is subject to the fulfillment to such Purchaser’s reasonable satisfaction, prior
to or on the Closing Date, of the following conditions:

	5.	 	REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY.

The Company represents and warrants to each Purchaser on the date hereof and on the Closing
Date that:

5.1. Organization; Power and Authority.

The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the
laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation, and is duly qualified as a foreign corporation and is in
good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required by law, other than those
jurisdictions as to which the failure to be so qualified or in good standing could not,
individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The
Company has the corporate power and authority to own or hold under lease the properties it purports
to own or hold under lease, to transact the business it transacts and proposes to transact, to
execute and deliver this Agreement and the Notes and to perform its obligations hereunder and
thereunder.

5.2. Authorization, etc.

This Agreement and the Notes have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on
the part of the Company, and this Agreement constitutes, and upon execution and delivery thereof
each Note will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against
the Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by (i)
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the
enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (ii) general principles of equity (regardless of
whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

5.3. Disclosure.

This Agreement, the documents, certificates or other writings provided directly to the
Purchasers in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, as of their respective dates,
and the financial statements listed in Schedule 5.5, taken as a whole (this Agreement, such
documents, certificates or other writings and such financial statements being referred to,
collectively, as the “Disclosure Documents”), do not contain any untrue statement of a material
fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in
light of the circumstances under which they were made. There is no fact known to the Company that
could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect that has not been set forth herein
or in the Disclosure Documents. Except as disclosed in the Disclosure Documents or in the
financial statements listed in Schedule 5.5, since December 31, 2009 there has been no change in
the financial condition, operations, business or properties of the Company or any Subsidiary except
changes that individually or in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect (it being understood for the purposes of this Section 5.3 that any event or
condition which shall cause the Company to be unable to satisfy the covenants described in Section
10.1 for any period after December 31, 2009 on a pro forma basis shall be deemed to have a Material
Adverse Effect).

5.4. Organization and Ownership of Shares of Subsidiaries.

Schedule 5.4 contains complete and correct lists, as of the date hereof, of the Company’s
(i) Subsidiaries, showing, as to each such Subsidiary, the correct name thereof, the jurisdiction
of its organization and the percentage of shares of each class of its capital stock or similar
equity interests outstanding owned by the Company and each other Subsidiary, (ii) Affiliates, other
than Subsidiaries, and (iii) directors and senior officers.

(a) All of the outstanding shares of capital stock or similar equity interests of each
Subsidiary shown in Schedule 5.4 as being owned by the Company and its Subsidiaries, and all
such stock or equity interests of Subsidiaries acquired thereafter, have been validly
issued, are fully paid and nonassessable and are owned by the Company or another Subsidiary
free and clear of any Lien.

(b) Each Subsidiary is a corporation or other legal entity duly organized, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, and is
duly qualified as a foreign corporation or other legal entity and is in good standing in
each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required by law, other than those
jurisdictions as to which the failure to be so qualified or in good standing could not,
individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
Each such Subsidiary has the corporate or other power and authority to own or hold under
lease the properties it purports to own or hold under lease and to transact the business it
transacts and proposes to transact.

(c) No Subsidiary is a party to, or otherwise subject to any legal restriction or any
agreement (other than this Agreement and customary limitations imposed by corporate law
statutes) restricting the ability of such Subsidiary to pay dividends out of profits or make
any other similar distributions of profits to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that
owns outstanding shares of capital stock or similar equity interests of such Subsidiary.

5.5. Financial Statements, etc.

The Company has delivered to each Purchaser copies of the financial statements of the Company
and its Subsidiaries listed in Schedule 5.5. All of said financial statements (including in each
case the related schedules and notes) fairly present in all material respects the consolidated
financial position of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the respective dates specified in such
Schedule and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for the respective periods
so specified and have been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the
periods involved, except as set forth in the notes thereto (subject, in the case of any interim
financial statements, to normal year-end adjustments).

Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary had any material liabilities of a type required to be
disclosed in financial statements (or notes thereto) prepared in accordance with GAAP, including
material obligations under Guaranties, contingent liabilities and liabilities for taxes, or any
long-term leases or unusual forward or long-term commitments in respect of derivatives, that are
not reflected in the financial statements listed in Schedule 5.5 or otherwise disclosed in the
Disclosure Documents.

5.6. Compliance with Laws, Other Instruments, etc.

The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement and the Notes will
not (a) contravene, result in any breach of, or constitute a default under, or result in the
creation of any Lien in respect of any property of the Company or any Subsidiary under, any
indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan, purchase or credit agreement, lease, corporate charter or
by-laws, or any other agreement or instrument to which the Company or any Subsidiary is bound or by
which the Company or any Subsidiary or any of their respective properties may be bound or affected,
(b) conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any order,
judgment, decree, or ruling of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority applicable to the
Company or any Subsidiary or (c) violate any provision of any statute or other rule or regulation
of any Governmental Authority applicable to the Company or any Subsidiary.

5.7. Governmental Authorizations, etc.

No consent, approval or authorization of, or registration, filing or declaration with, any
Governmental Authority is required to be obtained by the Company or any Subsidiary in connection
with the execution, delivery or performance by the Company of this Agreement or the Notes.

5.8. Litigation; Observance of Agreements, Statutes and Orders.

(a) Except as is disclosed in the Company’s Form 10-K for its fiscal year ending
December 31, 2009 or any Form 10-Q filed by the Company subsequent thereto, there are no
actions, suits, investigations or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of the Company,
threatened against or affecting the Company or any Subsidiary or any property of the Company
or any Subsidiary in any court or before any arbitrator of any kind or before or by any
Governmental Authority that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default under any term of any
agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it is bound, or any order,
judgment, decree or ruling of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority or is in
violation of any applicable law, ordinance, rule or regulation (including without limitation
Environmental Laws) of any Governmental Authority, which default or violation, individually
or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.9. Taxes.

The Company and its Subsidiaries have filed all federal and state income tax returns and all
other Material tax returns that are required to have been filed in any jurisdiction, and have paid
all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns and all other taxes and assessments levied
upon them or their properties, assets, income or franchises, to the extent such taxes and
assessments have become due and payable and before they have become delinquent, except for any
taxes and assessments (a) the amount of which is not individually or in the aggregate Material or
(b) the amount, applicability or validity of which is currently being contested in good faith by
appropriate proceedings and with respect to which the Company or a Subsidiary, as the case may be,
has established adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP. The Company knows of no basis for any
other tax or assessment that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The
charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Company and its Subsidiaries in respect of
federal, state or other taxes for all fiscal periods are adequate in the good faith judgment of the
Company’s management. The federal income tax liabilities of the Company and its Subsidiaries have
been determined by the Internal Revenue Service and paid for all fiscal years up to and including
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.

5.10. Title to Property; Leases.

The Company and its Subsidiaries have good and sufficient title to their respective Material
properties, including all such properties reflected in the most recent audited balance sheet
referred to in Section 5.5 or purported to have been acquired by the Company or any Subsidiary
after said date (except as sold or otherwise disposed of in the ordinary course of business), in
each case free and clear of Liens prohibited by this Agreement. All leases under which the Company
or any Subsidiary is a lessee that individually or in the aggregate are Material are valid and
subsisting and are in full force and effect in all material respects.

5.11. Licenses, Permits, etc.

Except as to matters that individually or in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect,

(a) the Company and its Subsidiaries own or possess all licenses, permits, franchises,
authorizations, patents, copyrights, proprietary software, service marks, trademarks and
trade names, or rights thereto, that are individually or in the aggregate Material, without
known conflict with the rights of others,

(b) to the knowledge of the Company, no product of the Company or any Subsidiary
infringes any license, permit, franchise, authorization, patent, copyright, proprietary
software, service mark, trademark, trade name or other right owned by any other Person, and

(c) to the knowledge of the Company, there is no violation by any Person of any right
of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to any patent, copyright, proprietary
software, service mark, trademark, trade name or other right owned or used by the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries.

5.12. Compliance with ERISA.

(a) The Company and each ERISA Affiliate have operated and administered each Plan in
compliance with all applicable laws except for such instances of noncompliance as have not
resulted in and could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
Neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred any liability pursuant to Title I
or IV of ERISA or the penalty or excise tax provisions of the Code relating to employee
benefit plans (as defined in section 3 of ERISA), and no event, transaction or condition has
occurred or exists that could reasonably be expected to result in the incurrence of any such
liability by the Company or any ERISA Affiliate, or in the imposition of any Lien on any of
the rights, properties or assets of the Company or any ERISA Affiliate, in either case
pursuant to Title I or IV of ERISA or to such penalty or excise tax provisions or to
section 430 or 436 of the Code, other than such liabilities or Liens as would not reasonably
be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) The present value of the aggregate benefit liabilities under each of the Plans
(other than Multiemployer Plans), determined as of December 31, 2009 (which is the date of
the Plan’s most recently ended plan year for which such information is available) on the
basis of the actuarial assumptions specified for funding purposes in such Plan’s 2006
actuarial valuation report, did not exceed the aggregate current value of the assets of such
Plan allocable to such benefit liabilities. The term “benefit liabilities” has the meaning
specified in section 4001 of ERISA and the terms “current value” and “present value” have
the meaning specified in section 3 of ERISA.

(c) The Company and its ERISA Affiliates have not incurred withdrawal liabilities (and
are not subject to contingent withdrawal liabilities) under section 4201 or 4204 of ERISA in
respect of Multiemployer Plans that individually or in the aggregate could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(d) The expected postretirement benefit obligation (determined as of the last day of
the Company’s most recently ended fiscal year in accordance with FASB ASC 715-60, without
regard to liabilities attributable to continuation coverage mandated by section 4980B of the
Code) of the Company and its Subsidiaries could not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

(e) The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the issuance and sale of the Notes
at the Closing hereunder will not involve any transaction that is subject to the
prohibitions of section 406 of ERISA or in connection with which a tax could be imposed
pursuant to section 4975(c)(1)(A)-(D) of the Code. The representation by the Company to
each Purchaser in the first sentence of this Section 5.12(e) is made in reliance upon and
subject to the accuracy of such Purchaser’s representation in Section 6.2 as to the sources
of the funds to be used to pay the purchase price of the Notes to be purchased by such
Purchaser at the Closing.

5.13. Private Offering by the Company.

Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has offered the Notes or any similar
Securities for sale to, or solicited any offer to buy any of the same from, or otherwise approached
or negotiated in respect thereof with, any Person other than the Purchasers, each of which has been
offered the Notes at a private sale for investment. Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its
behalf has taken, or will take, any action that would subject the issuance or sale of the Notes to
the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act or to the registration
requirements of any securities or blue sky laws of any applicable jurisdiction.

5.14. Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations.

The Company will apply the proceeds of the sale of the Notes to refinance existing
Indebtedness of the Company and its Subsidiaries and for general corporate purposes. No part of
the proceeds from the sale of the Notes hereunder will be used, and no part of the proceeds of such
Indebtedness was used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of buying or carrying any margin
stock within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System
(12 CFR 221), or for the purpose of buying or carrying or trading in any securities under such
circumstances as to involve the Company in a violation of Regulation X of said Board (12 CFR 224)
or to involve any broker or dealer in a violation of Regulation T of said Board (12 CFR 220).
Margin stock does not constitute more than 1% of the value of the consolidated assets of the
Company and its Subsidiaries and the Company does not have any present intention that margin stock
will constitute more than 25% of the value of such assets. As used in this Section, the terms
“margin stock” and “purpose of buying or carrying” shall have the meanings assigned to them in said
Regulation U.

5.15. Existing Indebtedness; Future Liens, etc.

Schedule 5.15 sets forth a complete and correct list of all outstanding Indebtedness of the
Company and its Subsidiaries as of June 30, 2010 (and including each guarantor thereof), since
which date there has been no Material change in the amounts, interest rates, sinking funds,
installment payments or maturities of the Indebtedness of the Company or its Subsidiaries, except
(a) as a result of the issuance and sale of the Notes hereunder and application of the proceeds of
such sale in accordance with Section 5.14, and (b) as otherwise specifically set forth in Schedule
5.15. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default in, and no waiver of default is
currently in effect in respect of, the payment of any principal or interest on any Indebtedness and
no event or condition exists with respect to any Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary that
would permit (or that with the giving of notice or the lapse of time, or both, would permit) one or
more Persons to cause such Indebtedness to become due and payable before its stated maturity or
before its regularly scheduled dates of payment.

Except as disclosed in Schedule 5.15, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has agreed or
consented to cause or permit in the future (upon the happening of a contingency or otherwise) any
of its property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, to be subject to a Lien not permitted by
Section 10.2.

5.16. Foreign Assets Control Regulations, etc.

(a) Absence of Foreign or Enemy Status. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary
is an “enemy” or an “ally of the enemy” within the meaning of section 2 of the Trading with
the Enemy Act of the United States of America (50 U.S.C. App. §§ 1 et seq.), as amended.
Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in violation of, none of the holders of Notes
solely as a result of purchasing, holding, receiving any payment or exercising any rights in
respect of, any Note, will be in violation of, and neither the issuance and sale of the
Notes by the Company nor its use of the proceeds thereof as contemplated by this Agreement
will violate, (i) the Trading with the Enemy Act, as amended, the International Emergency
Economic Powers Act, as amended, or any executive orders, proclamations or regulations
issued pursuant thereto, or any of the foreign assets control regulations of the United
States Department of the Treasury (31 C.F.R., Subtitle B, Chapter V, as amended) or any
enabling legislation or executive order relating thereto, (ii) the Cuban Liberty and
Democratic Solidarity (LIBERTAD) Act of 1996 (Pub.L. 104-114, 110 Stat. 785 (1996)), as
amended, or (iii) the USA Patriot Act.

Section 1 of United States Executive Order 13,224 of September 23, 2001, Blocking Property
and Prohibiting Transactions With Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support
Terrorism, 66 U.S. Fed. Reg. 49079 (2001), as amended (the “Anti-Terrorism Order”), or (ii)
has any investments in, or knowingly engages in any dealings or transactions with, any
Identified Person where such investments, dealings or transactions would cause the purchase,
holding, or receipt of any payment or exercise of any rights in respect of, any Note by the
holder thereof to be in violation of any of the laws or regulations identified in clause (a)
or (b) of this Section 5.16.

(c) No part of the proceeds from the sale of the Notes hereunder will be used, directly
or indirectly, for any payments to any governmental official or employee, political party,
official of a political party, candidate for political office, or anyone else acting in an
official capacity, in order to obtain, retain or direct business or obtain any improper
advantage, in violation of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as
amended.

Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is subject to regulation under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 2005, as amended, the ICC
Termination Act of 1995, as amended, or the Federal Power Act, as amended.

5.18. Environmental Matters.

Except as is disclosed in the Company’s Form 10-K for its fiscal year ending December 31, 2009
or any Form 10-Q filed by the Company subsequent thereto (the relevant portions of which are
attached as Schedule 5.18), neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has knowledge of any claim or
has received any notice of any claim, and no proceeding has been instituted raising any claim
against the Company or any Subsidiary or any of their respective real properties now or formerly
owned, leased or operated by any of them or other assets, alleging any damage to the environment or
violation of any Environmental Laws, except such as could not, individually or in the aggregate,
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Except as otherwise disclosed to
each Purchaser in writing, and except as to matters that, individually or in the aggregate, could
not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect,

(a) neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has knowledge of any facts which would give
rise to any claim, public or private, of violation of Environmental Laws or damage to the
environment emanating from, occurring on or in any way related to real properties now or
formerly owned, leased or operated by any of them or to other assets or their use,

(b) neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has stored any Hazardous Materials

with or senior to all other unsecured, unsubordinated Indebtedness of the Company.

(a) Each Purchaser severally represents that it is purchasing the Notes to be purchased

financial matters in Section 10) unless such accountants should have
obtained knowledge thereof in making an audit in accordance with generally
accepted auditing standards or did not make such an audit),

be reasonably requested by any such holder.

7.2. Officer’s Certificate.

Each set of financial statements delivered to a holder of Notes pursuant to Section 7.1(a) or

(which, in the case of Electronic Delivery of any such financial statements, shall be by separate
concurrent delivery of such certificate to each holder of Notes):

(a) Covenant Compliance — the information (including reasonably detailed calculations)
required in order to establish whether the Company was in compliance with the requirements
of Sections 10.1 to 10.3, inclusive, during the quarterly or annual period covered by the

applicable, the calculations of the maximum or minimum amount, ratio or percentage, as the
case may be, permissible under the terms of such Sections, and the calculation of the
amount, ratio or percentage then in existence); and

(b) Event of Default — a statement that such Senior Financial Officer has reviewed the
relevant terms hereof and has made, or caused to be made under his or her supervision, a

to the date of the certificate and that such review shall not have disclosed the existence
during such period of any condition or event that constitutes a Default or an Event of
Default or, if any such condition or event existed or exists (including, without limitation,
any such event or condition resulting from the failure of the Company or any Subsidiary to
comply with any Environmental Law), specifying the nature and period of existence thereof
and what action the Company or any Subsidiary shall have taken or proposes to take with

executive office of the Company, to discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of the
Company and its Subsidiaries with the Company’s officers, and, with the consent of the
Company (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld) its independent public
accountants, and (with the consent of the Company, which consent will not be unreasonably
withheld) to visit the other offices and properties of the Company and each Subsidiary, all
at such reasonable times as may be reasonably requested in writing; and

(b) Default — if a Default or Event of Default then exists, at the expense of the
Company to visit and inspect any of the offices or properties of the Company or any
Subsidiary, to examine all their respective books of account, records, reports and other
papers, to make copies and extracts therefrom, and to discuss their respective affairs,
finances and accounts with their respective officers and independent public accountants (and
by this provision the Company authorizes said accountants to discuss the affairs, finances
and accounts of the Company and its Subsidiaries), all at such times and as often as may be
reasonably requested.

	8.	 	PREPAYMENT OF THE NOTES.

Interest on the Notes shall be payable at the rates and at the times set forth in the Notes.
As provided therein, the entire unpaid principal balance of the Notes shall be due and payable on
the stated maturity date thereof. In addition, the Company may make optional prepayments in
respect of the Notes and under certain circumstances may be required to offer to prepay the Notes,
all as hereinafter provided.

8.1. Optional Prepayments with Make-Whole Amount.

The Company may, at its option, upon notice as provided in Section 8.2 and allocated as
provided in Section 8.3, prepay at any time all, or from time to time any part of, the Notes (in a
minimum principal amount, except for purposes of Section 10.3(d), of £3,000,000 and otherwise in
multiples of £500,000 at the principal amount so prepaid, plus interest accrued thereon to the date
of such prepayment, plus the Make-Whole Amount (if any), plus any Swap Reimbursement Amount (if
any) applicable to each Note to be prepaid, minus any Net Gain (if any) applicable to each Note to
be prepaid in accordance with Section 8.6(c)(ii), determined for the prepayment date with respect
to such principal amount.

8.2. Notice of Prepayment; Make-Whole Computation.

The Company will call Notes for prepayment pursuant to Section 8.1 by giving written notice
thereof to each holder of a Note, which notice shall be given not less than 30 nor more than 60
days prior to the date fixed for such prepayment (which shall be a Business Day) and shall specify
the amount so to be prepaid and the date fixed for such prepayment. Each such notice of prepayment
shall be accompanied by a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer as to the estimated Make-Whole
Amount (if any) due in connection with such prepayment for each Note held by such holder
(calculated as if the date of such notice were the date of the prepayment), setting forth the
details of such computation. Notice of prepayment having been so given, the aggregate principal
amount of the Notes as specified in such notice, together with interest accrued thereon to the date
of such prepayment, plus an amount equal to the Make-Whole Amount (if any) for each such Note shall
become due and payable on the specified prepayment date.

Two Business Days prior to the date fixed for any prepayment pursuant to Section 8.1, the
Company will furnish to each holder of Notes a certificate signed by a Senior Financial Officer
setting forth in reasonable detail the manner of calculation of the Make-Whole Amount as of the
specified prepayment date for each Note held by such holder.

8.3. Allocation of Partial Prepayments.

In the case of each partial prepayment of the Notes pursuant to Section 8.1, the principal
amount of the Notes to be prepaid shall be allocated among all of the Notes at the time outstanding
in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts thereof not
theretofore called for prepayment.

8.4. Maturity; Surrender; etc.

In the case of each prepayment of Notes pursuant to this Section 8, the principal amount of
each Note to be prepaid shall mature and become due and payable on the date fixed for such
prepayment (which shall be a Business Day), together with interest on such principal amount accrued
to such date and the applicable Make-Whole Amount, if any, and Swap Reimbursement Amount, if any
(or less any applicable Net Gain in accordance with Section 8.6(c)(ii), as the case may be). From
and after such date, unless the Company shall fail to pay such principal amount when so due and
payable, together with the interest and Make-Whole Amount, if any, and Swap Reimbursement Amount,
if any, as aforesaid, interest on such principal amount shall cease to accrue. Any Note paid or
prepaid in full shall be surrendered to the Company and cancelled and shall not be reissued, and no
Note shall be issued in lieu of any prepaid principal amount of any Note.

8.5. Purchase of Notes.

The Company will not and will not permit any Affiliate to purchase, redeem, prepay or
otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, any of the outstanding Notes except upon the payment or
prepayment of the Notes in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Notes. The Company
will promptly cancel all Notes acquired by it or any Affiliate pursuant to any payment or
prepayment of Notes pursuant to any provision of this Agreement and no Notes may be issued in
substitution or exchange for any such Notes.

8.6. Make-Whole Amount.

(a) Make-Whole Amount for the Non-Swapped Notes. The term “Make-Whole Amount”
means with respect to any Non-Swapped Note, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the
Discounted Value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to the Called Principal of
such Non-Swapped Note, minus the amount of such Called Principal, provided that the
Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero. For the purposes of determining the
Make-Whole Amount with respect to any Non-Swapped Note, the following terms have the
following meanings:

“Called Principal” means, with respect to such Non-Swapped Note, the principal of such
Non-Swapped Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.1 or has become or is declared
to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

“Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Called Principal of such Non-Swapped
Note, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to
such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with
respect to such Called Principal, in accordance with accepted financial practice and at a
discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on such
Non-Swapped Note is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield for such Non-Swapped Note with
respect to such Called Principal.

“Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of such Non-Swapped
Note, 0.50% over the yield to maturity implied by (i) the yields reported, as of 10:00 A.M.
(New York City time) on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect
to such Called Principal, on the Bloomberg Financial Markets display generated by typing
‘UKT’ and touching the F2 or GOVT key for actively traded gilt-edged securities having a
maturity equal to the remaining life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date, or
(ii) if such rate is not reported as of such time or the rate reported is not ascertainable,
the average of the rates for actively traded gilt-edged securities having a maturity equal
to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date as
determined by two financial institutions that make regular markets in gilt-edged securities
and financial products based upon gilt-edged securities, as shall be agreed between the
Company and the holders of at least 51% of the aggregate principal amount of the Non-Swapped
Notes (the “Majority Holders of Non-Swapped Notes”) or, following the occurrence and
continuance of an Event of Default, as reasonably determined by the Majority Holders of
Non-Swapped Notes; such implied yield will be determined, if necessary, by (A) converting
quotations to bond-equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (B)
interpolating linearly between (1) the actively traded gilt-edged security with the maturity
closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) the actively traded
gilt-edged security with the maturity closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life.

The Reinvestment Yield for any Non-Swapped Note shall be rounded to the number of
decimal places as appears in the interest rate of such Non-Swapped Note.

“Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to the Called Principal of such
Non-Swapped Note, the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) obtained
by dividing (i) such Called Principal into (ii) the sum of the products obtained by
multiplying (a) the principal component of each Remaining Scheduled Payment with respect to
such Called Principal by (b) the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth
year) that will elapse between the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal and
the scheduled due date of such Remaining Scheduled Payment.

“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the Called Principal of such
Non-Swapped Note, all payments of such Called Principal and interest thereon that would be
due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such
Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date, provided that if such Settlement
Date is not a date on which an interest payment is due to be made under the terms of such
Non-Swapped Note, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be
reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on
such Settlement Date pursuant to Section 8.1 or Section 12.1.

“Non-Swapped Notes” means any Note other than the Swapped Notes.

“Settlement Date” means, with respect to such Called Principal of such Non-Swapped
Note, the date on which such Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.1 or
has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the
context requires.

(b) Make-Whole Amount for the Swapped Notes. The term “Make-Whole Amount”
means, with respect to any Swapped Note, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the
Swapped Note Discounted Value with respect to the Swapped Note Called Notional Amount
related to such Swapped Note over such Swapped Note Called Notional Amount, provided the
Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero. All payments of Make-Whole Amount in
respect of any Swapped Note shall be made in Dollars. For the purposes of determining the
Make-Whole Amount with respect to any Swapped Note, the following terms have the following
meanings:

“New Swap Agreement” means any cross-currency swap agreement pursuant to which the
holder of a Swapped Note is to receive payment in Dollars and which is entered into in full
or partial replacement of an Original Swap Agreement as a result of such Original Swap
Agreement having terminated for any reason other than a non-scheduled prepayment or a
repayment of such Swapped Note prior to its scheduled maturity. The terms of a New Swap
Agreement with respect to any Swapped Note do not have to be identical to those of the
Original Swap Agreement with respect to such Swapped Note.

“Original Swap Agreement” means, with respect to any Swapped Note, (x) a cross-currency
swap agreement and annexes and schedules thereto (an “Initial Swap Agreement”) that is
entered into on an arm’s length basis by the original purchaser of such Swapped Note (or any
affiliate thereof) in connection with the execution of this Agreement and the purchase of
such Swapped Note and relates to the scheduled payments by the Company of interest and
principal on such Swapped Note, under which the holder of such Swapped Note is to receive
payments from the counterparty thereunder in Dollars and which is more particularly
described on Schedule 8.6 hereto, (y) any Initial Swap Agreement that has been assumed
(without any waiver, amendment, deletion or replacement of any material economic term or
provision thereof) by a holder of a Swapped Note in connection with a transfer of such
Swapped Note and (z) any Replacement Swap Agreement; and a “Replacement Swap Agreement”
means, with respect to any Swapped Note, a cross-currency swap agreement and annexes and
schedules thereto with payment terms and provisions (other than a reduction in notional
amount, if applicable) identical to those of the Initial Swap Agreement with respect to such
Swapped Note that is entered into on an arm’s length basis by the holder of such Swapped
Note in full or partial replacement (by amendment, modification or otherwise) of such
Initial Swap Agreement (or any subsequent Replacement Swap Agreement) in a notional amount
not exceeding the outstanding principal amount of such Swapped Note following a
non-scheduled prepayment or a repayment of such Swapped Note prior to its scheduled
maturity. Any holder of a Swapped Note that enters into, assumes or terminates an Initial
Swap Agreement or Replacement Swap Agreement shall within a reasonable period of time
thereafter deliver to the Company a copy of the confirmation, assumption or termination
related thereto.

“Swap Agreement” means, with respect to any Swapped Note, an Original Swap Agreement or
a New Swap Agreement, as the case may be.

“Swapped Note” means any Note that as of the date of the Closing is subject to a Swap
Agreement. A “Swapped Note” shall no longer be deemed a “Swapped Note” at such time as the
related Swap Agreement ceases to be in force in respect thereof.

“Swapped Note Applicable Percentage” means 0.50%.

“Swapped Note Called Notional Amount” means, with respect to any Swapped Note Called
Principal of any Swapped Note, the payment in Dollars due to the holder of such Swapped Note
under the terms of the Swap Agreement to which such holder is a party, attributable to and
in exchange for such Swapped Note Called Principal and assuming that such Swapped Note
Called Principal is paid on its scheduled maturity date, provided that if such Swap
Agreement is not an Initial Swap Agreement, then the “Swapped Note Called Notional Amount”
in respect of such Swapped Note shall not exceed the amount in Dollars which would have been
due to the holder of such Swapped Note under the terms of the Initial Swap Agreement to
which such holder was a party (or if such holder was never party to an Initial Swap
Agreement, then the last Initial Swap Agreement to which the most recent predecessor in
interest to such holder as a holder of such Swapped Note was a party), attributable to and
in exchange for such Swapped Note Called Principal and assuming that such Swapped Note
Called Principal is paid on its scheduled maturity date.

“Swapped Note Called Principal” means, with respect to any Swapped Note, the principal
of such Swapped Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or has become or is
declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context
requires.

“Swapped Note Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Swapped Note Called Notional
Amount of any Swapped Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or has become or is
declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context
requires, the amount obtained by discounting all Swapped Note Remaining Scheduled Swap
Payments corresponding to the Swapped Note Called Notional Amount of such Swapped Note from
their respective scheduled due dates to the Swapped Note Settlement Date with respect to
such Swapped Note Called Notional Amount, in accordance with accepted financial practice and
at a discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on such
Swapped Note is payable) equal to the Swapped Note Reinvestment Yield with respect to such
Swapped Note Called Notional Amount.

“Swapped Note Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Swapped Note Called
Notional Amount of any Swapped Note, the sum of (x) Swapped Note Applicable Percentage plus
(y) the yield to maturity implied by (1) the yields reported, as of 10:00 A.M. (New York
City time) on the second Business Day preceding the Swapped Note Settlement Date with
respect to such Swapped Note Called Notional Amount, on the display designated as “Page PX1”
(or such other display as may replace Page PX1) on the Bloomberg Financial Markets for the
most recently issued actively traded on the run U.S. Treasury securities having a maturity
equal to the Swapped Note Remaining Average Life of such Swapped Note Called Notional Amount
as of such Swapped Note Settlement Date, or (2) if such yields are not reported as of such
time or the yields reported as of such time are not ascertainable (including by way of
interpolation), the Treasury Constant Maturity Series Yields reported for the latest day for
which such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the Swapped
Note Settlement Date with respect to such Swapped Note Called Notional Amount, in U.S.
Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (or any comparable successor publication) for
applicable U.S. Treasury securities having a constant maturity equal to the Swapped Note
Remaining Average Life of such Swapped Note Called Notional Amount as of such Swapped Note
Settlement Date.

In the case of each determination under clause (1) or (2), as the case may be, of the
preceding paragraph such implied yield will be determined, if necessary, by (A) converting
U.S. Treasury bill quotations to bond-equivalent yields in accordance with accepted
financial practice and (B) interpolating linearly between (i) the applicable U.S. Treasury
security with the maturity closest to and greater than the Swapped Note Remaining Average
Life of such Swapped Note Called Notional Amount and (ii) the applicable U.S. Treasury
security with the maturity closest to and less than such Swapped Note Remaining Average
Life. The Swapped Note Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places
as appears in the interest rate of such Swapped Note.

“Swapped Note Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to any Swapped Note Called
Notional Amount, the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) obtained
by dividing (x) such Swapped Note Called Notional Amount into (y) the sum of the products
obtained by multiplying (1) the principal component of each Swapped Note Remaining Scheduled
Swap Payments with respect to such Swapped Note Called Notional Amount by (2) the number of
years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) that will elapse between the Swapped Note
Settlement Date with respect to such Swapped Note Called Notional Amount and the scheduled
due date of such Swapped Note Remaining Scheduled Payments.

“Swapped Note Remaining Scheduled Swap Payments” means, with respect to the Swapped
Note Called Notional Amount relating to any Swapped Note, the payments due to the holder of
such Swapped Note in Dollars under the terms of the Swap Agreement to which such holder is a
party which correspond to all payments of the Swapped Note Called Principal of such Swapped
Note corresponding to such Swapped Note Called Notional Amount and interest on such Swapped
Note Called Principal (other than that portion of the payment due under such Swap Agreement
corresponding to the interest accrued on the Swapped Note Called Principal to the Swapped
Note Settlement Date) that would be due after the Swapped Note Settlement Date in respect of
such Swapped Note Called Notional Amount assuming that no payment of such Swapped Note
Called Principal is made prior to its originally scheduled payment date.

“Swapped Note Settlement Date” means, with respect to the Swapped Note Called Notional
Amount of any Swapped Note Called Principal of any Swapped Note, the date on which such
Swapped Note Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or has become or is
declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context
requires.

(c) Swap Breakage. If any Swapped Note is prepaid pursuant to Sections 8.2,
8.7 or 8.8 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to
Section 12.1, then:

(i) any resulting Net Loss in connection therewith shall be reimbursed to the
holder of such Swapped Note by the Company in Dollars upon any such prepayment or
repayment of such Swapped Note (such amount payable under this clause (i) herein
referred to as the “Swap Reimbursement Amount”); and

(ii) any resulting Net Gain in connection therewith shall be deducted from any
amounts to be paid to the holder of such Swapped Note by the Company upon any such
prepayment of such Swapped Note pursuant to Sections 8.2, 8.7 or 8.8 or repayment
pursuant to Section 12.1; provided that, in any case, such Net Gain shall be applied
first to reduce the Make-Whole Amount, if any, payable in respect of such Swapped
Note (it being understood that the Make-Whole Amount in respect of such Swapped Note
may not in any event be less than zero) and the remainder of such Net Gain, if any,
shall be applied to reduce the principal and interest to be paid to the holder of
such Swapped Note by the Company upon any such prepayment or repayment of such
Swapped Note in the order of priority set forth below.

Each holder of a Swapped Note shall be responsible for calculating its own Net Loss or Net
Gain, as the case may be, and Swap Breakage Amount in Dollars upon the prepayment or
repayment of all or any portion of such Swapped Note, and such calculations as reported to
the Company in reasonable detail shall be binding on the Company absent demonstrable error.
Any Net Gain in excess of the Make-Whole Amount to be applied to principal or interest
pursuant to clause (ii) of this Section 8.6(c) shall be (a) converted by the holder of the
affected Swapped Note from Dollars to Sterling at the Sterling/Dollar exchange rate, as
determined as of 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the day such Swapped Note is prepaid as
indicated on the applicable screen of Bloomberg Financial Markets and any such calculation
shall be reported to the Company in reasonable detail and shall be binding on the Company
absent demonstrable error, and (b) applied in the following order of priority: (i) first, to
any accrued and unpaid interest due on the day such Swapped Note is prepaid or repaid, (ii)
second, to any principal due on the day such Swapped Note is prepaid or repaid, (iii) third,
to any accrued interest on the principal amount outstanding after giving effect to any such
prepayment, and (iv) fourth, to any principal outstanding after giving effect to any such
prepayment.

As used in this Section 8.6(c) with respect to any Swapped Note that is prepaid or
accelerated: “Net Loss” means the amount, if any, by which the Swapped Note Called Notional
Amount exceeds the sum of (x) the Swapped Note Called Principal plus (or minus in the case
of an amount paid) (y) the Swap Breakage Amount received (or paid) by the holder of such
Swapped Note; and “Net Gain” means the amount, if any, by which the Swapped Note Called
Notional Amount is exceeded by the sum of (x) the Swapped Note Called Principal plus (or
minus in the case of an amount paid) (y) the Swap Breakage Amount received (or paid) by such
holder. For purposes of any determination of any “Net Loss” or “Net Gain,” the Swapped Note
Called Principal shall be determined by the holder of the affected Swapped Note by
converting Sterling into Dollars at the current Sterling/Dollar exchange rate, as determined
as of 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the day such Swapped Note is prepaid or accelerated
as indicated on the applicable screen of Bloomberg Financial Markets and any such
calculation shall be reported to the Company in reasonable detail and shall be binding on
the Company absent demonstrable error.

As used in this Section 8.6(c), “Swap Breakage Amount” means, with respect to the Swap
Agreement associated with any Swapped Note, in determining the Net Loss or Net Gain, the
amount that would be received (in which case the Swap Breakage Amount shall be positive) or
paid (in which case the Swap Breakage Amount shall be negative) by the holder of such
Swapped Note as if such Swap Agreement had terminated due to the occurrence of an event of
default or termination, which shall be an amount equal to the “Settlement Amount” as defined
by the International Swap and Derivatives Association’s (“ISDA”) 1992 Multi-Currency Cross
Border Master Agreement, the ISDA Master Agreement or any ISDA agreement which is the
successor to either of the foregoing (the “ISDA Master Agreement”); provided, however, that
if such holder (or its predecessor in interest with respect to such Swapped Note) was, but
is not at the time, a party to an Original Swap Agreement but is a party to a New Swap
Agreement, then the Swap Breakage Amount shall mean the gain or loss (if any) which would
have been received or incurred (by payment, through off-set or netting or otherwise) by the
holder of such Swapped Note under the terms of the Original Swap Agreement (if any) in
respect of such Swapped Note to which such holder (or any affiliate thereof) was a party (or
if such holder was never a party to an Original Swap Agreement, then the last Original Swap
Agreement to which the most recent predecessor in interest to such holder as a holder of a
Swapped Note was a party) and which would have arisen as a result of the payment of the
Swapped Note Called Principal on the Swapped Note Settlement Date. The holder of such
Swapped Note will make all calculations related to the Swap Breakage Amount in good faith
and in accordance with its customary practices for calculating such amounts under the ISDA
Master Agreement pursuant to which such Swap Agreement shall have been entered into and
assuming for the purpose of such calculation that there are no other transactions entered
into pursuant to such ISDA Master Agreement (other than such Swap Agreement).

	 	 	 	 	 
	 	8.7.	 	 	The Swap Breakage Amount shall be payable in Dollars.

Prepayment in Connection with a Change of Control.

Promptly and in any event within five Business Days after the occurrence of a Change of
Control, the Company will give written notice thereof (a “Change of Control Notice”) to the holders
of all outstanding Notes, which Change of Control Notice shall (a) refer specifically to this
Section 8.7, (b) describe the Change of Control in reasonable detail and specify the Change of
Control Prepayment Date and the Response Date (as respectively defined below) in respect thereof
and (c) offer to prepay all outstanding Notes at the price specified below on the date therein
specified (the “Change of Control Prepayment Date”), which shall be a Business Day not more than 90
days after the date of such Change of Control Notice. Each holder of a Note will notify the
Company of such holder’s acceptance or rejection of such offer by giving written notice of such
acceptance or rejection to the Company on or before the date for such notice specified in such
Change of Control Notice (the “Response Date”), which specified date shall be a Business Day not
less than 30 days nor more than 60 days after the date of such Change of Control Notice. The
Company shall prepay on the Change of Control Prepayment Date all of the outstanding Notes held by
the holders as to which such offer has been so accepted (it being understood that failure of any
holder to accept such offer on or before the Response Date shall be deemed to constitute rejection
by such holder), at the principal amount of each such Note, plus all interest accrued thereon to
the Change of Control Prepayment Date, plus any Swap Reimbursement Amount in respect of such
payment, minus any Net Gain in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 8.6(c)(ii). If
any holder shall reject such offer on or before the Response Date, such holder shall be deemed to
have waived its rights under this Section 8.7 to require prepayment of all Notes held by such
holder in respect of such Change of Control but not in respect of any subsequent Change of Control.

For purposes of this Section 8.7, any holder of more than one Note may act separately with
respect to each Note so held (with the effect that a holder of more than one Note may accept such
offer with respect to one or more Notes so held and reject such offer with respect to one or more
other Notes so held).

A “Change of Control” shall be deemed to have occurred if at any time after the date of this
Agreement any Person or “group” (within the meaning of the Exchange Act and the rules of the SEC
thereunder as in effect on the date hereof) shall acquire ownership, directly or indirectly,
beneficially or of record, of more than 50% of the outstanding shares of the Voting Stock or
economic interests of the Company.

8.8. Prepayment in Connection with the Disposition of Certain Assets.

(a) Notice and Offer. In the event net proceeds of a Disposition are to be
used to make an offer (a “Transfer Prepayment Offer”) to prepay Notes pursuant to Section
10.3 of this Agreement (a “Debt Prepayment Transfer”), the Company will give written notice
of such Debt Prepayment Transfer to each holder of Notes. Such written notice shall
contain, and such written notice shall constitute, an irrevocable offer to prepay, at the
election of each holder, a portion of the Notes held by such holder equal to such holder’s
Ratable Portion of the net proceeds in respect of such Debt Prepayment Transfer on a date
specified in such notice (the “Transfer Prepayment Date”) that is not less than thirty (30)
days and not more than sixty (60) days after the date of such notice, together with interest
on the amount to be so prepaid accrued to the Transfer Prepayment Date. If the Transfer
Prepayment Date shall not be specified in such notice, the Transfer Prepayment Date shall be
the thirtieth (30th) day after the date of such notice.

(b) Acceptance and Payment. To accept such Transfer Prepayment Offer, a holder
of Notes shall cause a notice of such acceptance to be delivered to the Company not later
than twenty (20) days after the date of such written notice from the Company, provided, that
failure to accept such offer in writing within twenty (20) days after the date of such
written notice shall be deemed to constitute a rejection of the Transfer Prepayment Offer.
If so accepted by any holder of a Note, such offered prepayment (equal to not less than such
holder’s Ratable Portion of the net proceeds in respect of such Debt Prepayment Transfer)
shall be due and payable on the Transfer Prepayment Date. Such offered prepayment shall be
made at one hundred percent (100%) of the principal amount of such Notes being so prepaid,
plus all interest on such principal amount then being prepaid accrued to the Transfer
Prepayment Date determined as of the date of such prepayment, plus any Swap Reimbursement
Amount in respect of such payment, minus any Net Gain in respect of such payment in
accordance with Section 8.6(c)(ii).

(c) Other Terms. Each offer to prepay the Notes pursuant to this Section 8.8
shall specify (i) the Transfer Prepayment Date, (ii) the net proceeds in respect of the
applicable Debt Prepayment Transfer, (iii) that such offer is being made pursuant to Section
8.8 and Section 10.3 of this Agreement, (iv) the principal amount of each Note offered to be
prepaid, (v) the interest that would be due on each Note offered to be prepaid, accrued to
the Transfer Prepayment Date and (vi) in reasonable detail, the nature of the Disposition
giving rise to such Debt Prepayment Transfer and certifying that no Event of Default exists
or would exist after giving effect to the prepayment contemplated by such offer.

	9.	 	AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS.

The Company covenants that so long as any of the Notes are outstanding or any Purchaser has an
obligation to purchase Notes hereunder:

9.1. Compliance with Laws.

Without limiting Section 10.6, the Company will and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to
comply with all laws, ordinances or governmental rules or regulations to which each of them is
subject, including without limitation, ERISA and the USA Patriot Act and Environmental Laws, and
will obtain and maintain in effect all licenses, certificates, permits, franchises and other
governmental authorizations necessary to the ownership of their respective properties or to the
conduct of their respective businesses, to the extent necessary to ensure that non-compliance with
such laws, ordinances, governmental rules or regulations or failures to obtain or maintain in
effect such licenses, certificates, permits, franchises and other governmental authorizations could
not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.

9.2. Insurance.

The Company will and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to maintain, with financially sound
and reputable insurers, insurance with respect to their respective properties and businesses
against such casualties and contingencies, of such types, on such terms and in such amounts
(including deductibles, co-insurance and self-insurance, if adequate reserves are maintained with
respect thereto) as is customary in the case of entities of established reputations engaged in the
same or a similar business and similarly situated.

9.3. Maintenance of Properties; Books and Records.

(a) The Company will and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to maintain and keep, or
cause to be maintained and kept, their respective properties in good repair, working order
and condition (other than ordinary wear and tear), so that the business carried on in
connection therewith may be properly conducted at all times, provided that this
Section shall not prevent the Company or any Subsidiary from discontinuing the operation and
the maintenance of any of its properties if such discontinuance is desirable in the conduct
of its business and the Company has concluded that such discontinuance could not reasonably
be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) The Company will and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to keep proper books of
records and account in which full, true and correct entries in conformity with GAAP (or, in
the case of any Foreign Subsidiary, in accordance with local accounting standards) and all
requirements of laws shall be made of all dealings and transactions in relation to their
respective business and activities.

9.4. Payment of Taxes.

The Company will and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to file all income tax or similar tax
returns required to be filed in any jurisdiction and to pay and discharge all taxes shown to be due
and payable on such returns and all other taxes, assessments, governmental charges, or levies
payable by any of them, to the extent such taxes, assessments, charges or levies have become due
and payable and before they have become delinquent, provided that neither the Company nor any
Subsidiary need (a) pay any such tax, assessment, charge or levy if the amount, applicability or
validity thereof is contested by the Company or such Subsidiary on a timely basis in good faith and
in appropriate proceedings and the Company or a Subsidiary has established adequate reserves
therefor in accordance with GAAP on the books of the Company or such Subsidiary or (b) pay any such
tax, assessment, charge or levy if the nonpayment of all such taxes, assessments, charges or levies
in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

9.5. Corporate Existence, etc.

Subject to Section 10.4, the Company will at all times preserve and keep in full force and
effect its corporate existence. Subject to Sections 10.3 and 10.4, the Company will at all times
preserve and keep in full force and effect the corporate existence of each of its Subsidiaries
(unless merged into the Company or a Subsidiary) and all rights and franchises of the Company and
its Subsidiaries unless, in the good faith judgment of the Company, the termination of or failure
to preserve and keep in full force and effect such corporate existence of any Subsidiary or any
such right or franchise could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have
a Material Adverse Effect.

9.6. Ranking.

The Company will ensure that, at all times, all liabilities of the Company under the Notes
will rank in right of payment either pari passu with or senior to all other unsecured,
unsubordinated Indebtedness of the Company.

	10.	 	NEGATIVE COVENANTS.

The Company covenants that so long as any of the Notes are outstanding or any Purchaser has an
obligation to purchase Notes hereunder:

10.1. Certain Financial Conditions.

The Company will not permit:

(a) Consolidated Debt to EBITDA — Consolidated Debt at any time to exceed 3.50 times
EBITDA for the four consecutive fiscal quarters then most recently ended; or

(b) Interest Coverage — at any time, the ratio of (i) EBITDA to (ii) Interest Expense,
in each case for the four consecutive fiscal quarters then most recently ended, to be less
than 2.5 to 1.00; or

(c) Priority Debt — Priority Debt at any time to exceed 15% of Consolidated Total
Assets (determined as of the end of the most recently ended fiscal quarter of the Company);
provided, however, that no Lien created pursuant to Section 10.2(j) shall secure
Indebtedness owing under the Bank Credit Agreement unless the Notes are equally and ratably
secured by all property subject to such Lien and no Subsidiary shall guaranty or otherwise
become obligated in respect of such Indebtedness unless such Subsidiary guaranties, or
becomes obligated in respect of, the Notes, in each case pursuant to documentation
reasonably satisfactory to the Majority Holders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Foreign
Subsidiary may become a borrower under the Bank Credit Agreement so long as it is liable
only for the amount of its direct borrowings thereunder, and the Company shall not be
required to cause such Foreign Subsidiary to guaranty the Notes in accordance with this
clause (c), if (1) no Default or Event of Default exists and is continuing at the time such
Foreign Subsidiary becomes a borrower under the Bank Credit Agreement and (2) at such time
the provision by such Foreign Subsidiary of a guaranty of the Notes would cause the earnings
of such Foreign Subsidiary to be treated as a deemed dividend to such Foreign Subsidiary’s
United States parent under the Code; provided, however, that a guaranty of the Notes from
such Foreign Subsidiary shall be required to be delivered to the holders of Notes in
accordance with this clause (c) on the earliest to occur thereafter of (x) a Default or
Event of Default or (y) such time as the provision by such Foreign Subsidiary of a guaranty
of the Notes would not cause the earnings of such Foreign Subsidiary to be treated as a
deemed dividend to such Foreign Subsidiary’s United States parent under the Code. (For the
avoidance of doubt, any borrowing by a Foreign Subsidiary under the Bank Credit Agreement
shall constitute Priority Debt unless such Foreign Subsidiary shall have provided a guaranty
or shall have otherwise become obligated in respect of the Notes in accordance with the
terms of this Section 10.1(c).)

If during any test period for which EBITDA is being determined any acquisition or Disposition shall
have been consummated, then for purposes of clauses (a) and (b) above EBITDA shall be determined on
a pro forma basis as if such acquisition or Disposition shall have been consummated on the first
day of such test period and any Indebtedness incurred or retired in connection therewith had been
incurred or retired on such first day.

10.2. Liens.

The Company will not and will not permit any Subsidiary to create, assume, incur or suffer to
exist any Lien on any asset, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, except for the following:

(a) Liens of or resulting from any judgment or award, the time for the appeal or
petition for rehearing of which shall not have expired, or in respect of which any of the
Company and its Subsidiaries shall at the time in good faith be prosecuting an appeal or a
proceeding for a review, and for which adequate reserves have been made;

(b) Liens for property taxes, assessments or other governmental charges which are not
yet due and payable, statutory Liens of landlords and Liens of carriers, warehousemen,
mechanics, and other similar liens incurred in the ordinary course of business for sums not
yet due and payable;

(c) Liens incidental to the conduct of business or the ownership of properties and
assets (including Liens in connection with worker’s compensation, unemployment insurance and
other like laws, warehousemen’s and attorney’s liens and statutory landlord’s liens) and
Liens to secure the performance of bids, tenders or trade contracts, or to secure statutory
obligations, surety or appeal bonds or other Liens of like general nature incurred in the
ordinary course of business and not in connection with the borrowing of money, the obtaining
of advances or credit or the payment of the deferred purchase price of property; provided in
each case, the obligation secured is not overdue or, if overdue, is being contested in good
faith by appropriate actions or proceedings, and for which adequate reserves have been made;

(d) leases or subleases granted to others, easements, rights-of-way, restrictions and
other similar charges or encumbrances, in each case incidental to, and not interfering with,
the ordinary conduct of the business of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, provided
that such Liens do not, in the aggregate, materially detract from the value of the affected
property;

(e) Liens on property or assets of any Subsidiary securing Indebtedness owing to the
Company or to a Subsidiary;

(f) Liens existing as of the date hereof securing Indebtedness of the Company or any
Subsidiary and described on Schedule 5.15;

(g) any Lien existing on assets of a Person immediately prior to such Person being
consolidated with or merged into the Company or a Subsidiary or such Person becoming a
Subsidiary, or any Lien existing on any assets acquired by the Company or any Subsidiary at
the time such assets are so acquired (whether or not the Indebtedness secured thereby shall
have been assumed), provided that (i) no such Lien shall have been created or assumed in
contemplation of such consolidation or merger or such Person becoming a Subsidiary or such
acquisition of assets, and (ii) each such Lien shall extend solely to the item or items so
acquired and, if required by the terms of the instrument originally creating such Lien,
other assets which are an improvement to or are acquired for specific use in connection with
such acquired Person or assets of a Person;

(h) Liens securing Indebtedness under Permitted Receivables Securitization Programs,
provided that the aggregate principal amount of such Indebtedness does not exceed the
greater of $125,000,000, or such other amount not to exceed 15% of Consolidated Tangible
Assets;

(i) Liens created in substitution of or as a replacement for any Liens permitted by
clauses (a) through (h) above, provided that a Senior Financial Officer shall have
determined in good faith that the assets encumbered by such substitute or replacement Lien
are substantially similar in nature to and of equal or lesser value than the assets
encumbered by the Lien that is being replaced; and

(j) Liens not otherwise permitted by the foregoing clauses of this Section 10.2
securing Indebtedness of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, provided Priority Debt does
not at any time exceed 15% of Consolidated Total Assets.

10.3. Disposition of Assets.

The Company will not and will not permit any Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, sell,
lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its assets (including, without limitation, capital
stock of any Subsidiary) or permit any Subsidiary to issue any capital stock (collectively a
“Disposition,” which term shall not include any payment of dividends) unless, after giving effect
to such proposed Disposition, the aggregate net book value of all assets of the Company and its
Subsidiaries that were the subject of a Disposition during the period of 365 days ending on (and
including) the date of such Disposition (valued, in the case of any issuance of capital stock by,
or sale of capital stock of, a Subsidiary, as provided in the last sentence of this Section 10.3)
does not exceed 15% of Consolidated Total Assets (as shown on the most recent consolidated balance
sheet furnished pursuant to Section 7.1(b)), provided that the following Dispositions shall not be
taken into account for purposes of such calculations under this Section 10.3:

(a) any Disposition in the ordinary course of business and involving only property that
is either (i) inventory held for sale or (ii) equipment, fixtures, supplies or materials no
longer required in the operation of the business of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
or that are obsolete;

(b) any Disposition by a Subsidiary to the Company or a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary;

(c) any Disposition otherwise permitted by Section 10.4; and

(d) any Disposition not otherwise permitted by the foregoing provisions of this Section
10.3 for fair value to the extent that the net proceeds of such Disposition are applied
within 360 days from the date of such Disposition either to (i) the acquisition,
construction, improvement or development of operating assets (excluding, for the avoidance
of doubt, cash and cash equivalents) to be used in the business of the Company and its
Subsidiaries or (ii) the repayment or prepayment of unsubordinated Indebtedness of the
Company or a Subsidiary (any such repayment or prepayment to include, except to the extent
of any repayment of Indebtedness secured by the asset so disposed of, prepayment of Notes
(at par and without payment of any Make-Whole Amount) to the extent that the offer to prepay
the Notes pursuant to Section 8.8 has been accepted as provided therein, which offered
prepayment of Notes is in at least an aggregate principal amount that bears the same
relation to the amount then being applied to reduce all unsubordinated Indebtedness of the
Company and its Subsidiaries as the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Notes bears to
the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all outstanding unsubordinated Indebtedness of the
Company and its Subsidiaries); provided that any prepayment in connection with any revolving
credit facility or similar facility shall be counted for purposes of this clause (ii) only
to the extent the commitment of such facility is permanently reduced by the amount of such
prepayment.

The aggregate net book value of any capital stock issued by any Subsidiary, or sold by the Company
or any other Subsidiary, shall be deemed to be, in the case of an issuance or sale of common stock,
the same percentage of the net book value of such Subsidiary’s assets as such issued or sold common
stock is of all outstanding common stock of such Subsidiary (after giving effect to any such
issuance) and, in the case of an issuance of Preferred Stock, the greater of the aggregate
liquidation or redemption value thereof.

10.4. Merger, Consolidation, etc.

The Company will not consolidate or merge with any other Person or convey, transfer or lease
all or substantially all of its assets in a single transaction or series of transactions to any
Person except that the Company may consolidate with or merge with any other corporation or convey
or transfer all or substantially all of its assets to a corporation or limited liability company
organized and existing under the laws of the United States or any State thereof, provided that

(a) the continuing, surviving or acquiring corporation or limited liability company
(the “Surviving Person”) shall be a solvent corporation or limited liability company
organized and existing under the laws of the United States or any State thereof (including
the District of Columbia), and, if the Company is not the Surviving Person, (1) the
Surviving Person shall have executed and delivered to each holder of any Notes its
assumption of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition
of this Agreement and the Notes, in a form reasonably satisfactory to each holder of Notes
and (2) the Surviving Person shall have caused to be delivered to each holder of any Notes
an opinion of nationally recognized independent counsel, or other independent counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the Majority Holders, to the effect that all agreements or
instruments effecting such assumption are enforceable in accordance with their terms and
comply with the terms hereof; and

(b) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing.

No such conveyance, transfer or lease of substantially all of the assets of the Company shall
have the effect of releasing the Company or any successor corporation or limited liability company
that shall theretofore have become such in the manner prescribed in this Section 10.4 from its
liability under this Agreement or the Notes.

10.5. Transactions with Affiliates.

The Company will not and will not permit any Subsidiary to enter into directly or indirectly
any Material transaction or Material group of related transactions (including without limitation
the purchase, lease, sale or exchange of properties of any kind or the rendering of any service)
with any Affiliate (other than the Company or a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary), except (a) pursuant to
the reasonable requirements of the Company’s or such Subsidiary’s business and upon terms that are
no less favorable to the Company or such Subsidiary than would be obtainable in an arm’s-length
transaction with a Person not an Affiliate, (b) the Company may grant stock options, stock
appreciation rights, restricted stock awards and phantom stock awards to its and its Subsidiaries’
directors in the ordinary course of business, and (c) the Company and its Subsidiaries may pay
reasonable and customary fees to their directors who are not also officers or employees of the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

10.6. Terrorism Sanctions Regulations.

The Company will not and will not permit any Subsidiary to (a) become a Person described or
designated in the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List of the Office of Foreign
Assets Control or in Section 1 of the Anti-Terrorism Order or (b) engage in any dealings or
transactions with any such Person.

	11.	 	EVENTS OF DEFAULT.

An “Event of Default” shall exist if any of the following conditions or events shall occur and
be continuing:

(a) default in the payment of any principal or Make-Whole Amount, if any, or Swap
Reimbursement Amount, if any, on any Note when the same becomes due and payable, whether at
maturity or at a date fixed for prepayment or by declaration or otherwise; or

obtaining actual knowledge of such default and (ii) the Company receiving written notice of
such default from any holder of a Note (any such written notice to be identified as a
“notice of default” and to refer specifically to this paragraph (e) of Section 11); or

thereto or any other condition exists, and as a consequence of such default or condition
such Indebtedness has become, or has been declared due and payable before its stated
maturity or before its regularly scheduled dates of payment; provided that it shall not
constitute an Event of Default pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) of this Section 11(g) unless

(a) If an Event of Default with respect to the Company described in paragraph (h) or
(i) of Section 11 (other than an Event of Default described in clause (i) of paragraph (h)

encompasses clause (i) of paragraph (h)) has occurred, all the Notes then outstanding shall
automatically become immediately due and payable.

(b) If any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Majority Holders,
may at any time at its or their option, by notice or notices to the Company, declare all the
Notes then outstanding to be immediately due and payable.

(c) If any Event of Default described in paragraph (a) or (b) of Section 11 has
occurred and is continuing, any holder or holders of Notes at the time outstanding affected
by such Event of Default may at any time, at its or their option, by notice or notices to
the Company, declare all the Notes held by it or them to be immediately due and payable.

Upon any Notes becoming due and payable under this Section 12.1, whether automatically or by
declaration, such Notes will forthwith mature and an amount equal to the entire unpaid principal
amount of such Notes, plus (i) all accrued and unpaid interest thereon (including, but not limited
to, interest accrued thereon at the Default Rate), (ii) the Make-Whole Amount determined in respect
of such principal amount (to the full extent permitted by applicable law), (iii) interest accrued
at the Default Rate on any overdue payment of Make-Whole Amount in accordance with the terms of the
Notes and (iv) Swap Reimbursement Amount, minus the Net Gain (if any) applicable to such Notes in
accordance with Section 8.6(c)(ii), shall be immediately due and payable, in each and every case
without presentment, demand, protest or further notice, all of which are hereby waived. The
Company acknowledges, and the parties hereto agree, that each holder of a Note has the right to
maintain its investment in the Notes free from repayment by the Company (except as herein
specifically provided for) and that the provision for payment of a Make-Whole Amount by the Company
in the event that the Notes are prepaid or are accelerated as a result of an Event of Default, is
intended to provide compensation for the deprivation of such right under such circumstances.

12.2. Other Remedies.

If any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and irrespective of whether
any Notes have become or have been declared immediately due and payable under Section 12.1, the
holder of any Note at the time outstanding may proceed to protect and enforce the rights of such
holder by an action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate proceeding, whether for the
specific performance of any agreement contained herein or in any Note, or for an injunction against
a violation of any of the terms hereof or thereof, or in aid of the exercise of any power granted
hereby or thereby or by law or otherwise.

12.3. Rescission.

At any time after any Notes have been declared due and payable pursuant to clause (b) or
(c) of Section 12.1, the Majority Holders, by written notice to the Company, may rescind and annul
any such declaration and its consequences if (a) the Company has paid or deposited pursuant to
trust arrangements acceptable to the Majority Holders all overdue interest on any Notes, all
principal of and Make-Whole Amount, if any, on any Notes that are due and payable and are unpaid
other than by reason of such declaration, and all interest on such overdue principal and Make-Whole
Amount, if any, and Swap Reimbursement Amount, if any, and Swap Reimbursement Amount, if any (or,
if applicable, less any Net Gain in accordance with Section 8.6(c)(ii)) and (to the extent
permitted by applicable law) any overdue interest in respect of the Notes, at the Default Rate,
(b) neither the Company nor any other Person shall have paid any amounts which have become due
solely by reason of such declaration, (c) all Events of Default and Defaults, other than the
non-payment of amounts that have become due solely by reason of such declaration, have been cured
or have been waived pursuant to Section 17, and (d) no judgment or decree has been entered for the
payment of any monies due pursuant hereto or to the Notes. No rescission and annulment under this
Section 12.3 will extend to or affect any subsequent Event of Default or Default or impair any
right consequent thereon.

12.4. No Waivers or Election of Remedies, Expenses, etc.

No course of dealing and no delay on the part of any holder of any Note in exercising any
right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice such holder’s
rights, powers or remedies. No right, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement or by any Note
upon any holder thereof shall be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy referred to herein
or therein or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise. Without
limiting the obligations of the Company under Section 15, the Company will pay to the holder of
each Note on demand such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover all costs and expenses of
such holder incurred in any enforcement or collection under this Section 12, including without
limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements.

The Company shall keep at its principal executive office a register for the registration and
registration of transfers of Notes. The name and address of each holder of one or more Notes, each
transfer thereof and the name and address of each transferee of one or more Notes shall be
registered in such register. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer, the Person in
whose name any Note shall be registered shall be deemed and treated as the owner and holder thereof
for all purposes hereof, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice or knowledge to the
contrary. The Company shall give to any holder of a Note that is an Institutional Investor
promptly upon request therefor, a complete and correct copy of the names and addresses of all
registered holders of Notes.

13.2. Transfer and Exchange of Notes.

Upon surrender of any Note at the principal executive office of the Company for registration

by a written instrument of transfer duly executed by the registered holder of such Note or such
holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing and accompanied by the address for notices of each
transferee of such Note or part thereof), within ten Business Days thereafter the Company shall
execute and deliver, at the Company’s expense (except as provided below), one or more new Notes (as
requested by the holder thereof) in exchange therefor, in an aggregate principal amount equal to
the unpaid principal amount of the surrendered Note. Each such new Note shall be payable to such
Person as such holder may request and shall be in the form of Note set forth in Exhibit 1.
Each such new Note shall be dated and bear interest from the date to which interest shall have been
paid on the surrendered Note or dated the date of the surrendered Note if no interest shall have
been paid thereon. The Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp tax or
governmental charge imposed in respect of any such transfer of Notes. Notes shall not be
transferred in denominations of less than £500,000, provided that if necessary to enable the
registration of transfer by a holder of its entire holding of Notes, one Note may be in a
denomination of less than £500,000. Any transferee, by its acceptance of a Note registered in its
name (or the name of its nominee), shall be deemed to have made the representation set forth in

Institutional Investor, notice from such Institutional Investor of such ownership and such loss,
theft, destruction or mutilation), and

(a) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to
it (provided that if the holder of such Note is, or is a nominee for, an original Purchaser
or another holder of a Note with a minimum net worth of at least $50,000,000 or a Qualified
Institutional Buyer, such Person’s own unsecured agreement of indemnity shall be deemed to
be satisfactory), or

(b) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation thereof,

within ten Business Days thereafter the Company at its own expense shall execute and deliver, in
lieu thereof, a new Note, dated and bearing interest from the date to which interest shall have
been paid on such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or dated the date of such lost, stolen,
destroyed or mutilated Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon.

	14.	 	PAYMENTS ON NOTES.

14.1. Place of Payment.

Subject to Section 14.2, payments of principal, Make-Whole Amount, if any, Swap Reimbursement
Amount, if any, and interest becoming due and payable on the Notes shall be made in New York, New
York at the principal office of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. in such jurisdiction. The Company may at
any time, by notice to each holder of a Note, change the place of payment of the Notes so long as
such place of payment shall be either the principal office of the Company in the United States or
the principal office of a bank or trust company in New York, New York.

14.2. Home Office Payment.

So long as any Purchaser or its nominee shall be the holder of any Note, and notwithstanding
anything contained in Section 14.1 or in such Note to the contrary, the Company will pay all sums
becoming due on such Note for principal, Make-Whole Amount, if any, Swap Reimbursement Amount, if
any, and interest by the method and at the address specified for such purpose below such
Purchaser’s name in Schedule A, or by such other method or at such other address as such Purchaser
shall have from time to time specified to the Company in writing for such purpose, without the
presentation or surrender of such Note or the making of any notation thereon, except that upon
written request of the Company made concurrently with or reasonably promptly after payment or
prepayment in full of any Note, such Purchaser shall surrender such Note for cancellation,
reasonably promptly after any such request, to the Company at its principal executive office or at
the place of payment most recently designated by the Company pursuant to Section 14.1. Prior to
any sale or other disposition of any Note held by a Purchaser or its nominee, such Purchaser will,
at its election, either endorse thereon the amount of principal paid thereon and the last date to
which interest has been paid thereon or surrender such Note to the Company in exchange for a new
Note or Notes pursuant to Section 13.2. The Company will afford the benefits of this Section 14.2
to any Institutional Investor that is the direct or indirect transferee of any Note purchased by a
Purchaser under this Agreement and that has made the same agreement relating to such Note as the
Purchasers have made in this Section 14.2.

	15.	 	EXPENSES, ETC.

15.1. Transaction Expenses.

Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Company agrees to pay
all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees of one special counsel and, if
reasonably required, local or other counsel) incurred by the Purchasers and each other holder of a
Note in connection with such transactions and in connection with any amendments, waivers or
consents under or in respect of this Agreement or the Notes (whether or not such amendment, waiver
or consent becomes effective), including without limitation: (a) the costs and expenses incurred
in enforcing or defending (or determining whether or how to enforce or defend) any rights under
this Agreement or the Notes or in responding to any subpoena or other legal process or informal
investigative demand issued in connection with this Agreement or the Notes, or by reason of being a
holder of any Note, (b) the costs and expenses incurred in connection with the initial filing of
this Agreement and all related documents and financial information and all subsequent annual and
interim filings of documents and financial information related to this Agreement, with the SVO or
any successor organization succeeding to the authority thereof and (c) the costs and expenses,
including financial advisors’ fees, incurred in connection with the insolvency or bankruptcy of the
Company or any Subsidiary or in connection with any work-out or restructuring of the transactions
contemplated hereby and by the Notes. The Company will pay, and will save each Purchaser and each
other holder of a Note harmless from, all claims in respect of any fees, costs or expenses, if any,
of brokers and finders (other than those, if any, retained by a Purchaser or other holder in
connection with its purchase of the Notes).

In furtherance of the foregoing, on the date hereof and on the Closing Date the Company will
pay the reasonable fees and disbursements and other charges (including estimated unposted
disbursements and other charges as of such date) of Purchasers’ special counsel which are reflected
in the statement of such special counsel submitted to the Company at least one Business Day prior
to such date. The Company will also pay, promptly upon receipt of supplemental statements
therefor, reasonable additional fees, if any, and disbursements and other charges of such special
counsel in connection with the transactions hereby contemplated (including disbursements and other
charges unposted as of such date to the extent such disbursements and other charges exceed
estimated amounts paid as aforesaid).

15.2. Survival.

The obligations of the Company under this Section 15 will survive the payment or transfer of
any Note, the enforcement, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the Notes and
the termination of this Agreement.

	16.	 	SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; ENTIRE AGREEMENT.

All representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the execution and delivery
of this Agreement and the Notes, the purchase or transfer by any Purchaser of any Note or portion
thereof or interest therein and the payment of any Note, and may be relied upon by any subsequent
holder of a Note, regardless of any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of such
Purchaser or any other holder of a Note. All statements contained in any certificate or other
instrument delivered by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed
representations and warranties of the Company under this Agreement. Subject to the preceding
sentence, this Agreement and the Notes embody the entire agreement and understanding between each
Purchaser and the Company and supersede all prior agreements and understandings relating to the
subject matter hereof.

	17.	 	AMENDMENT AND WAIVER.

17.1. Requirements.

This Agreement and the Notes may be amended, and the observance of any term hereof or of the
Notes may be waived (either retroactively or prospectively), with (and only with) the written
consent of the Company and the Majority Holders except that (a) no amendment or waiver of any of
the provisions of Section 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 21, or any defined term (as it is used therein), will
be effective as to any Purchaser unless consented to by such Purchaser in writing, and (b) no such
amendment or waiver may, without the written consent of the holder of each Note at the time
outstanding, (i) subject to the provisions of Section 12 relating to acceleration or rescission,
change the amount or time of any prepayment or payment of principal of, or reduce the rate of
interest or change the time of payment or method of computation of interest or of the Make-Whole
Amount or Swap Reimbursement Amount on, the Notes, (ii) change the percentage of the principal
amount of the Notes the holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or waiver,
or (iii) amend any of Sections 8, 11(a), 11(b), 12, 17 or 20.

17.2. Solicitation of Holders of Notes.

(a) Solicitation. The Company will provide each holder of the Notes (irrespective of
the amount of Notes then owned by it) with sufficient information, sufficiently far in
advance of the date a decision is required, to enable such holder to make an informed and
considered decision with respect to any proposed amendment, waiver or consent in respect of
any of the provisions hereof or of the Notes. The Company will deliver executed or true and
correct copies of each amendment, waiver or consent effected pursuant to the provisions of
this Section 17 to each holder of outstanding Notes promptly following the date on which it
is executed and delivered by, or receives the consent or approval of, the requisite holders
of Notes.

(b) Payment. The Company will not directly or indirectly pay or cause to be paid any
remuneration, whether by way of supplemental or additional interest, fee or otherwise, or
grant any security or provide other credit support, to any holder of Notes as consideration
for or as an inducement to the entering into by any holder of Notes of any waiver or
amendment of any of the terms and provisions hereof unless such remuneration is concurrently
paid, or security is concurrently granted or other credit support is concurrently provided,
on the same terms, ratably to each holder of Notes then outstanding even if such holder did
not consent to such waiver or amendment.

17.3. Binding Effect, etc.

Any amendment or waiver consented to as provided in this Section 17 applies equally to all
holders of Notes and is binding upon them and upon each future holder of any Note and upon the
Company without regard to whether such Note has been marked to indicate such amendment or waiver.
No such amendment or waiver will extend to or affect any obligation, covenant, agreement, Default
or Event of Default not expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No
course of dealing between the Company and the holder of any Note nor any delay in exercising any
rights hereunder or under any Note shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any holder of such
Note. As used herein, the term “this Agreement” and references thereto shall mean this Agreement
as it may from time to time be amended or supplemented.

17.4. Notes Held by Company, etc.

Solely for the purpose of determining whether the holders of the requisite percentage of the
aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding approved or consented to any amendment, waiver
or consent to be given under this Agreement or the Notes, or have directed the taking of any action
provided herein or in the Notes to be taken upon the direction of the holders of a specified
percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, Notes directly or
indirectly owned by the Company or any of its Affiliates shall be deemed not to be outstanding.

	18.	 	NOTICES.

All notices and communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing and sent (a) by
telecopy if the sender on the same day sends a confirming copy of such notice by a recognized
overnight delivery service (charges prepaid), or (b) by registered or certified mail with return
receipt requested (postage prepaid), or (c) by a recognized overnight delivery service (with
charges prepaid). Any such notice must be sent:

(i) if to a Purchaser or its nominee, to such Purchaser or nominee at
the address specified for such communications in Schedule A, or at such other
address as such Purchaser or nominee shall have specified to the Company in writing,

(ii) if to any other holder of any Note, to such other holder at such
address as such other holder shall have specified to the Company in writing, or

(iii) if to the Company, to the Company at its address set forth at the
beginning hereof to the attention of the Treasurer, or at such other address as the
Company shall have specified to the holder of each Note in writing.

Notices under this Section 18 will be deemed given only when actually received.

	19.	 	REPRODUCTION OF DOCUMENTS.

This Agreement and all documents relating thereto, including, without limitation,
(a) consents, waivers and modifications that may hereafter be executed, (b) documents received by
any Purchaser at any Closing (except the Notes themselves), and (c) financial statements,
certificates and other information previously or hereafter furnished to any Purchaser, may be
reproduced by such Purchaser by any photographic, photostatic, microfilm, microcard, miniature
photographic or other similar process and such Purchaser may destroy any original document so
reproduced. The Company agrees and stipulates that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any
such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the original itself in any judicial or
administrative proceeding (whether or not the original is in existence and whether or not such
reproduction was made by such Purchaser in the regular course of business) and any enlargement,
facsimile or further reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise be admissible in evidence.
This Section 19 shall not prohibit the Company or any other holder of Notes from contesting any
such reproduction to the same extent that it could contest the original, or from introducing
evidence to demonstrate the inaccuracy of any such reproduction.

	20.	 	CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.

For the purposes of this Section 20, “Confidential Information” means information delivered to
any Purchaser by or on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary in connection with the transactions
contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement that is proprietary in nature and that was
clearly marked or labeled or otherwise adequately identified when received by such Purchaser as
being confidential information of the Company or such Subsidiary, provided that such term does not
include information that (a) was publicly known or otherwise known to such Purchaser prior to the
time of such disclosure, (b) subsequently becomes publicly known through no act or omission by such
Purchaser or any Person acting on such Purchaser’s behalf, (c) otherwise becomes known to such
Purchaser other than through disclosure by the Company, any Subsidiary or any third party known by
such Purchaser to be in violation of a duty of confidentiality owed by such party to the Company or
any Subsidiary or (d) constitutes financial statements delivered to such Purchaser under
Section 7.1 that are otherwise publicly available. Each Purchaser will maintain the
confidentiality of such Confidential Information in accordance with procedures adopted by such
Purchaser in good faith to protect confidential information of third parties delivered to such
Purchaser, provided that such Purchaser may deliver or disclose Confidential Information to (i) its
directors, officers, trustees, employees, agents, attorneys and affiliates (to the extent such
disclosure reasonably relates to the administration of the investment represented by its Notes),
(ii) its financial advisors and other professional advisors who agree or whose duties require them
to hold confidential the Confidential Information substantially in accordance with the terms of
this Section 20, (iii) any other holder of any Note, (iv) any Institutional Investor to which it
sells or offers to sell such Note or any part thereof or any participation therein (if such Person
has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by the
provisions of this Section 20), (v) any Person from which it offers to purchase any Security of the
Company (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information
to be bound by the provisions of this Section 20), (vi) any federal or state regulatory authority
having jurisdiction over such Purchaser, (vii) the NAIC or any similar organization, or any
nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about such Purchaser’s
investment portfolio, or (viii) any other Person to which such delivery or disclosure may be
necessary or appropriate (w) to effect compliance with any law, rule, regulation or order
applicable to such Purchaser, (x) in response to any subpoena or other legal process, (y) in
connection with any litigation to which such Purchaser is a party or (z) if an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, to the extent such Purchaser may reasonably determine such delivery and
disclosure to be necessary or appropriate in the enforcement or for the protection of the rights
and remedies under such Purchaser’s Notes and this Agreement. Each holder of a Note, by its
acceptance of a Note, will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to be entitled to the
benefits of this Section 20 as though it were a party to this Agreement. On reasonable request by
the Company in connection with the delivery to any holder of a Note of information required to be
delivered to such holder under this Agreement or requested by such holder (other than a holder that
is a party to this Agreement or its nominee), such holder will enter into an agreement with the
Company embodying the provisions of this Section 20.

	21.	 	SUBSTITUTION OF PURCHASER.

Each Purchaser shall have the right to substitute any one of its Affiliates as the purchaser
of the Notes that it has agreed to purchase hereunder, by written notice to the Company, which
notice shall be signed by both such Purchaser and such Affiliate, shall contain such Affiliate’s
agreement to be bound by this Agreement and shall contain a confirmation by such Affiliate of the
accuracy with respect to it of the representations set forth in Section 6. Upon receipt of such
notice, any reference to such Purchaser in this Agreement (other than in this Section 21), shall be
deemed to refer to such Affiliate in lieu of such original Purchaser. In the event that such
Affiliate is so substituted as a Purchaser hereunder and such Affiliate thereafter transfers to
such original Purchaser all of the Notes then held by such Affiliate, upon receipt by the Company
of notice of such transfer, any reference to such Affiliate as a “Purchaser” in this Agreement
(other than in this Section 21), shall no longer be deemed to refer to such Affiliate, but shall
refer to such original Purchaser, and such original Purchaser shall again have all the rights of an
original holder of the Notes under this Agreement.

	22.	 	MISCELLANEOUS.

22.1. Successors and Assigns.

All covenants and other agreements contained in this Agreement by or on behalf of any of the
parties hereto bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns (including
without limitation any subsequent holder of a Note) whether so expressed or not.

22.2. Construction.

Each covenant contained herein shall be construed (absent express provision to the contrary)
as being independent of each other covenant contained herein, so that compliance with any one
covenant shall not (absent such an express contrary provision) be deemed to excuse compliance with
any other covenant. Where any provision herein refers to action to be taken by any Person, or
which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action
is taken directly or indirectly by such Person.

22.3. Jurisdiction and Process.

(a) The Company irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive in personam
jurisdiction of any New York State or federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, The
City of New York, over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Agreement, or the Notes. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company
irrevocably waives and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise,
any claim that it is not subject to the in personam jurisdiction of any such
court, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any
such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit,
action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

(b) The Company irrevocably consents to process being served in any suit, action or
proceeding of the nature referred to in Section 22.3(a) by mailing a copy thereof by
registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to the Company at
its address specified in Section 18, or at such other address of which such holder shall
then have been notified pursuant to said Section. The Company agrees that, to the fullest
extent permitted by applicable law, such service upon receipt (i) shall be deemed in every
respect effective service of process upon it in any such suit, action or proceeding and
(ii) shall be taken and held to be valid personal service upon and personal delivery to the
Company. Notices hereunder shall be conclusively presumed received as evidenced by a
delivery receipt furnished by the United States Postal Service or any reputable commercial
delivery service.

(c) Nothing in this Section 22.3 shall affect the right of any holder of a Note to
serve process in any manner permitted by law, or limit any right that the holders of any of
the Notes may have to bring proceedings against the Company in the courts of any appropriate
jurisdiction or to enforce in any lawful manner a judgment obtained in one jurisdiction in
any other jurisdiction.

(d) THE COMPANY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION BROUGHT ON OR WITH RESPECT TO THIS
AGREEMENT, THE NOTES OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH.

(e) Any payment on account of an amount that is payable hereunder or under the Notes by
the Company that is made to or for the account of any holder of Notes in any currency other
than the currency specified for such payment, whether as a result of any judgment or order
or the enforcement thereof or the realization of any security or the liquidation of the
Company, shall constitute a discharge of the Company’s obligation under this Agreement or
any Note only to the extent of the amount of Dollars that such holder (i) could purchase in
the foreign exchange markets in New York, New York with the amount of such other currency in
accordance with normal banking procedures at the rate of exchange prevailing on the day
(other than Saturday or Sunday or a day on which commercial banks are required or authorized
by law to be closed in New York, New York) following receipt of the payment first referred
to above or (ii) purchases pursuant to such holder’s regular banking arrangements at the
time with respect to payments received in a currency other than Dollars. If the amount of
Dollars, as the case may be, so purchased (or, absent such a purchase, the amount that could
be so purchased) is less than the amount of Dollars, originally due to such holder, the
Company agrees to pay the deficient amount to such holder upon demand.

The Company agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to indemnify and save harmless
such holder from and against all loss or damage arising out of or as a result of any such currency
deficiency. This indemnity shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, constitute an obligation
separate and independent from the other obligations contained in this Agreement or the Notes, shall
give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, shall apply irrespective of any indulgence
granted by such holder from time to time and shall continue in full force and effect
notwithstanding any judgment or order for a liquidated sum in respect of an amount due hereunder or
under the Notes or under any judgment or order.

22.4. Payments Due on Non-Business Days.

Anything in this Agreement or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding (but without limiting
the requirements in Section 8 that notices in respect of prepayments specify a Business Day as the
date fixed for such prepayment), any payment of principal of or Make-Whole Amount (if any) or Swap
Reimbursement Amount (if any) or interest on any Note that is due on a date other than a Business
Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day without including the additional days elapsed
in the computation of the interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day.

22.5. Severability.

Any provision of this Agreement that 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 (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) not invalidate or
render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

22.6. Accounting Terms.

All accounting terms used herein which are not expressly defined in this Agreement have the
meanings respectively given to them in accordance with GAAP. Except as otherwise specifically
provided herein, all computations made pursuant to this Agreement shall be made in accordance with
GAAP and all balance sheets and other financial statements with respect thereto shall be prepared
in accordance with GAAP. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, any consolidated
financial statement or financial computation shall be done in accordance with GAAP; and, if at the
time that any such statement or computation is required to be made the Company shall not have any
Subsidiary, such terms shall mean a financial statement or a financial computation, as the case may
be, with respect to the Company only. For purposes of determining compliance with the financial
covenants contained in this Agreement, any election by the Company to measure an item of
Indebtedness using fair value (as permitted by FASB ASC 825-10-25 — Fair Value Option (formerly
known as FASB 159) or any similar accounting standard) shall be disregarded and such determination
shall be made as if such election had not been made.

22.7. Obligation to Make Payment in Sterling.

Subject to the provisions of Section 8.6 concerning payment in Dollars, any payment made by
the Company to any holder of Notes or for the account of any such holder in respect of any amount
payable by the Company shall be made in Sterling. Subject to the provisions of Section 8.6
concerning payment in Dollars, any amount received or recovered by such holder other than in
Sterling (whether as a result of, or of the enforcement of, a judgment or order of any court, or in
the liquidation or dissolution of the Company or otherwise) in respect of any such sum expressed to
be due hereunder or under the Notes shall constitute a discharge of the Company only to the extent
of the amount of Sterling which such holder is able, in accordance with normal banking procedures,
to purchase with the amount so received or recovered in that other currency on the date of the
receipt or recovery (or, if it is not practicable to make that purchase on such date, on the first
date on which it is practicable to do so). If the amount of Sterling so purchased is less than the
amount of Sterling expressed to be due hereunder or under the Notes, the Company shall indemnify
such holder against any loss sustained by such holder as a result, and in any event, the Company
shall indemnify such holder against the cost of making any such purchase. These indemnities shall
constitute a separate and independent obligation from the other obligations herein and in the
Notes, shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, shall apply irrespective of
any indulgence granted by any such holder, shall continue in full force and effect despite any
judgment, order, claim or proof for a liquidated amount in respect of any such sum due hereunder
and under any Note and shall survive the payment of the Notes and the termination of this
Agreement.

22.8. Change of Currency.

(a) Change of Currency. If at any time there is a change in the currency of
the United Kingdom such that the Bank of England recognizes a new currency or more than one
currency or currency unit as the lawful currency of the United Kingdom such that the
Sterling reference is no longer applicable (including, without limitation, any change to the
Euro as the lawful currency of the United Kingdom), the references in, and obligations

SCHEDULE 5.18

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

2009 10-K Excerpt

Environmental Matters

Certain historic processes in the manufacture of products have resulted in environmentally
hazardous waste by-products as defined by federal and state laws and regulations. While these waste
products were handled in compliance with regulations existing at that time, at December 31, 2009,
the Company is named a Potentially Responsible Party (“PRP”) at 16 non-AMETEK-owned former waste
disposal or treatment sites (the “non-owned” sites). The Company is identified as a “de minimis”
party in 14 of these sites based on the low volume of waste attributed to the Company relative to
the amounts attributed to other named PRPs. In ten of these sites, the Company has reached a
tentative agreement on the cost of the de minimis settlement to satisfy its obligation and is
awaiting executed agreements. The tentatively agreed-to settlement amounts are fully reserved. In
the other four sites, the Company is continuing to investigate the accuracy of the alleged volume
attributed to the Company as estimated by the parties primarily responsible for remedial activity
at the sites to establish an appropriate settlement amount. In the two remaining sites where the
Company is a non-de minimis PRP, the Company is participating in the investigation and/or related
required remediation as part of a PRP Group and reserves have been established sufficient to
satisfy the Company’s expected obligation. The Company historically has resolved these issues
within established reserve levels and reasonably expects this result will continue. In addition to
these non-owned sites, the Company has an ongoing practice of providing reserves for probable
remediation activities at certain of its current or previously owned manufacturing locations (the
“owned” sites). For claims and proceedings against the Company with respect to other environmental
matters, reserves are established once the Company has determined that a loss is probable and
estimable. This estimate is refined as the Company moves through the various stages of
investigation, risk assessment, feasibility study and corrective action processes. In certain
instances, the Company has developed a range of estimates for such costs and has recorded a
liability based on the low end of the range. It is reasonably possible that the actual cost of
remediation of the individual sites could vary from the current estimates and the amounts accrued
in the consolidated financial statements; however, the amounts of such variances are not expected
to result in a material change to the consolidated financial statements. In estimating the
Company’s liability for remediation, the Company also considers the likely proportionate share of
the anticipated remediation expense and the ability of the other PRPs to fulfill their obligations.

Total environmental reserves at December 31, 2009 and 2008 were $27.0 million and $28.4
million, respectively, for non-owned and owned sites. In 2009, the Company received $1.3 million
of additional reserves from a third party for existing sites. Additionally, the Company spent $2.7
million on environmental matters in 2009. The Company’s reserves for environmental liabilities at
December 31, 2009 and 2008 include reserves of $19.2 million and $17.9 million, respectively, for
an owned site acquired in connection with the fiscal 2005 acquisition of HCC Industries (“HCC”).
The Company is the designated performing party for the performance of remedial activities for one
of several operating units making up a large Superfund site in the San Gabriel Valley of
California. The Company has obtained indemnifications and other financial assurances from the
former owners of HCC related to the costs of the required remedial activities. At December 31,
2009, the Company had $13.9 million in receivables related to HCC for probable recoveries from
third-party escrow funds and other committed third-party funds to support the required remediation.
Also, the Company is indemnified by HCC’s former owners for approximately $19.0 million of
additional costs.

The Company has agreements with other former owners of certain of its acquired businesses, as
well as new owners of previously owned businesses. Under certain of the agreements, the former or
new owners retained, or assumed and agreed to indemnify the Company against, certain environmental
and other liabilities under certain circumstances. The Company and some of these other parties
also carry insurance coverage for some environmental matters. To date, these parties have met their
obligations in all material respects; however, one of these companies filed for bankruptcy
liquidation in 2007, as discussed further in the following paragraph.

In August 2009, the Company agreed to a Stipulation and Settlement Agreement with the San
Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board regarding the 2008 Notice of Administrative Civil
Liability related to a former subsidiary which became a separate company in 1988 and filed for
bankruptcy liquidation in 2007, whereby the Company paid and deferred minor penalties, which were
covered by previously established reserves.

The Company believes it has established reserves which are sufficient to perform all known
responsibilities under existing claims and consent orders. The Company has no reason to believe
that other third parties would fail to perform their obligations in the future. In the opinion of
management, based upon presently available information and past experience related to such matters,
an adequate provision for probable costs has been made and the ultimate cost resulting from these
actions is not expected to materially affect the consolidated results of operations, financial
position or cash flows of the Company.
