SECOND AMENDMENT TO EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

     This Second Amendment to Employment Agreement (this “Amendment”) is entered into as of
August 17, 2009 by CVR Energy, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and DANIEL J.
DALY, JR., an individual (the “Executive”).

     The Company and Executive entered into an Employment Agreement dated as of October 23, 2007,
as amended by the First Amendment to Employment Agreement dated as of November 30, 2007 (together,
the “Agreement”). The parties desire to amend the Agreement as set forth below.

     1. Amendment to Term. Section 1.1 of the Agreement is deleted in its entirety, and
is amended to read as follows:

               “1.1 Term. The Company agrees to employ the Executive, and the
Executive agrees to be employed by the Company, in each case pursuant to this
Employment Agreement, for a period commencing on October 23, 2007 (the
“Commencement Date”) and ending on the earlier of (i) December 31, 2009 or
(ii) the termination of the Executive’s employment in accordance with Section 3
hereof (the “Term”).”

     2. Ratify Agreement. Except as expressly amended hereby, the Agreement will remain
unamended and in full force and effect in accordance with its terms. The amendments provided
herein will be limited precisely as drafted and will not constitute an amendment of any other term,
condition or provision of the Agreement.

     3. Cross References. References in the Agreement to “Agreement”, “hereof”, “herein”,
and words of similar import are deemed to be a reference to the Agreement as amended by this
Amendment.

     4. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, each
of which will be deemed to be an original and all of which constitute one agreement that is binding
upon each of the parties, notwithstanding that all parties are not signatories to the same
counterpart.

calculation under paragraph (a) above, ensure that sufficient Letters of Credits are prepaid

Commitment following any adjustment to a Base Currency Amount under paragraph (a) of this
Clause 7.

	 
	8.	 	EXISTING LETTERS OF CREDIT

	 
	(a)	 	Error! Reference source not found. (Error! Reference source not found.) hereto contains on

in which such letters of credit is denominated), (iv) the name of the beneficiary, (v) the
amounts of Calyon and Deutsche Bank AG, New-York branch participations (expressed in the Base
Currency) in such letters of credit and (vi) the expiry date thereof) (each, an “Existing
Letter of Credit”). As a consequence of the Existing Letters of Credit, Error! Reference
source not found. (Error! Reference source not found.) hereto identifies the Available
Commitment of each Participating Bank on the Signing Date.

	(b)	 	Thereafter, on a monthly basis, the Administrative Agent shall, on the basis of information
provided by The Royal Bank of Scotland Plc, revise Error! Reference source not found. (Error!
Reference source not found.) in compliance with mutatis mutandis the calculation method
described in Clause 7(a) above.

	 
	(c)	 	Upon receipt of such monthly update the Administrative Agent shall send the update to Calyon
and to Deutsche Bank AG — Paris Branch. Within five (5) Business Days of such receipt, and
save if Calyon disagrees with the calculations set forth in such monthly update within such
time period, the Administrative Agent shall recalculate the Available Commitment as at such
date for each Participating Bank as follows:

	 
	(d)	 	Calyon’s Available Commitment shall be increased by an amount representing the share of
Calyon (as determined by the Administrative Agent on the basis of the above mentioned monthly
update) in the repayment or payment of all or part of the Existing Letters of Credit which
occurred during the monthly period to which relates the above mentioned monthly update.
Deutsche Bank AG — Paris Branch’s Available Commitment shall be increased by an amount
representing the share of Deutsche Bank AG — Paris Branch (as determined by the Administrative
Agent on the basis of the above mentioned monthly update) in the repayment or payment of all
or part of the Existing Letters of Credit which occurred during the monthly period to which
relates the above mentioned monthly update. The other Participating Banks Available
Commitments shall, simultaneously, each be increased in such an amount so that the Proportion
of each Participating Bank be the same as it was immediately before making the adjustments
provided for in this paragraph.

	 
	(e)	 	In case Calyon has objected to the calculation set forth in the above mentioned monthly
update, Calyon will provide the Administrative Agent and the Company with a revised update.
Such update shall be conclusive, save manifest error.

	 
	(f)	 	After the Signing Date, the Administrative Agent shall at a three monthly interval send to
each Participating Bank (other than Calyon) an update of its Available Commitment.

	 
	(g)	 	For the purpose of this Clause, “repayment” or “payment” of an Existing Letter of Credit
shall be construed in accordance with, mutatis mutandis, paragraphs (d) and (f) of Clause 1.2
(Construction).

	 
	(h)	 	For the sake of clarity, the Commitment of a Participating Bank shall not be increased by any
adjustment made to Calyon’s Available Commitment in accordance with this Clause 8 (Existing
Letters of Credit). However, the Parties acknowledge that their Proportion (expressed as a
percentage) as at the Signing Date set out in item 2 (Error! Reference source not found.) of
paragraph Part II of Error! Reference source not found. (Error! Reference source not found.)
may vary following an adjustment made to Calyon’s Available Commitment and Deutsche Bank AG -
Paris Branch’s Available Commitment in accordance with this Clause 8 (Existing Letters of
Credit).

or any underlying transaction or any available set-off, counterclaim or other defence
of any person.

	10.2	 	Obligors’ Liabilities

	 
	(a)	 	If a Letter of Credit or any amount outstanding under a Letter of Credit becomes due and

	 	 	pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, the Amount of the

	 	(ii)	 	any incapacity of, or limitation on the powers of, any person signing a Claim
or other document.

	10.3	 	Participating Banks’ Liabilities

Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Participating Bank of the unreimbursed amount
by the Affected LG User (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), the amount of such Participating Bank’s
Proportion thereof and the date on which payment must be made by such Participating Bank,
which date shall not be less than five (5) Business Days of the date of such notice.

 

41

shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each such Participating Bank which
has paid its Proportion thereof (and which has not been reimbursed directly by the Affected LG
User or the Guarantor therefore pursuant to paragraph (c) above) an amount equal to such

	(e)	 	To the effect of this Clause, each Participating Bank as primary obligor, guarantees the due

Credit issued for the account of such LG User. The obligations of each Participating Bank

payable by that Participating Bank pursuant to paragraph (b) above in respect of any Letter of
Credit, regardless of any intermediate payment or discharge in whole or in part.

negligence or wilful misconduct) in acting as the Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit.

payment it makes to the Issuing Bank under this Clause in respect of a Letter of Credit.

affected by any act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this Clause, would reduce,
release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Clause (without limitation and whether
or not known to it or any other person) including:

Obligor or any member of the Flowserve Group may have at any time against a beneficiary
named in a Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any person for
whom any such transferee may be acting), the Administrative Agent, any Participating
Bank, or any other person, whether in
connection with this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated

the account of the Finance Parties) in an amount equal to all the amount owed by the LG Users
to the Finance Parties under the Finance Documents as set forth in Clause 26.19 (Prepayment

	(b)	 	Alternatively, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Company may in accordance with

satisfactory for the Issuing Bank) issued by Acceptable Bank(s) to guarantee to the Issuing
Bank the payment of all amounts due by the LG Users to the Finance Parties under the Finance
Documents as set forth in Clause 26.19 (Prepayment and cancellation).

	 
	(c)	 	If cash cover has been provided in accordance with Clause 1.2(d)(i) and that no amount is or
may be outstanding under the relevant Letters of Credit, the Company may by notice to the
Administrative Agent request that an amount equal to the amount of the cash provided by the LG
Users standing to the credit of the relevant account held with the Issuing Bank or the
Administrative Agent in accordance with paragraph (a) above, be returned to the LG Users and
the Issuing Bank (or the Administrative Agent on its behalf) shall pay that amount to the LG
Users within 10 Business Days after the request from the Company (and shall cooperate with the
Company in order to procure that the relevant security or collateral arrangement is released

Participating Bank in accordance with the provisions of Clause 38.6 (Replacement of a
Non-Acceptable Participating Bank), and the Issuing Bank notifies the Company (with a copy to
the Administrative Agent) that it requires
the LG Users to provide cash cover in accordance with Clause 1.2(d)(i) or in accordance with

accordance with this Clause 11.2, the relevant Participating Bank’s Proportion in respect of
the relevant Letter(s) of Credit will remain (but that Participating Bank’s obligations in
relation to each such Letter of Credit may be satisfied in accordance with paragraph (d)(ii)
of Clause 1.2 (Construction)). However, the LG Users’ obligation to pay any Letter of Credit
fee in relation to the relevant Letter of Credit to the Administrative Agent (for the account
of that Participating Bank) in accordance with paragraph (b) of Clause 16.4 will be reduced
proportionately as from the date on which it complies with that obligation to provide cash
cover (and for so long as the relevant amount of cash cover continues to stand as collateral).

	 
	(d)	 	The Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of the extent to which the LG
Users provides cash cover pursuant to this Clause 11.2 and of any change in the amount of cash
cover so provided.

Non-Acceptable Participating Bank,

	 	 	and an indication in Part II (The Original Participating Banks) of Schedule 1 (The Original
Parties) or in a Transfer Agreement to that effect will constitute a notice under paragraph
(d)(i) to the Administrative Agent and, upon delivery in accordance with Clause 27.6 (Copy
of Transfer Agreement to Company), to the Company.

 

45

 

	(f)	 	Any notice received by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (e) above shall
constitute notice to the Issuing Bank of that Participating Bank’s status and the Administrative Agent shall, upon receiving each such notice, promptly notify the Issuing
Bank of that Participating Bank’s status as specified in that notice.

Commitment, upon notification by the Issuing Bank in accordance with paragraph (a) of this
Clause 11.2, shall be reduced to zero and the Total Commitment shall be reduced by an amount
equal to such reduction of such Available Commitment.

	 
	11.3	 	Rights of contribution

respect of any payment it may make under this Clause 11.

than the last day of any applicable grace period permitted by law).

	 
	13.2	 	Illegality in relation to Issuing Bank

Administrative Agent on becoming so aware in respect of a payment payable to that
Participating Bank or to the Issuing Bank. If the Administrative Agent receives such
notification from a Participating Bank or from the Issuing Bank it shall notify the Company

leaves an amount equal to the payment which would have been due if no Tax Deduction had been
required.

	 
	(d)	 	A payment shall not be increased under paragraph (c) above by reason of Tax Deduction on
account of Tax, if on the date on which the payment falls due:

	 	(i)	 	the payment could have been made to the relevant Participating Bank without a
Tax Deduction if the Participating Bank had been a Qualifying Participating Bank, but
on that date that Participating Bank is not or has ceased to be a Qualifying
Participating Bank other than as a result of any change after the date it became a

and in the minimum amount required by law.

	 
	(f)	 	Within thirty days of making either a Tax Deduction or any payment required in connection
with that Tax Deduction, the Company or the relevant Obligor making that Tax Deduction shall
deliver to the Administrative Agent for the Finance Party entitled to the payment certified
copies of tax receipts evidencing such payment or, if the practice or the relevant taxing
authority is not to supply such receipts, evidence reasonably satisfactory to that Finance
Party that the Tax Deduction has been made or (as applicable) any appropriate payment paid to
the relevant taxing authority.

	 
	(g)	 	A Treaty Participating Bank and the Company or the relevant Obligor which makes a payment to
which that Treaty Participating Bank is entitled shall co-operate in completing any procedural
formalities necessary for that Obligor to obtain authorisation to make that payment without a

without limitation, its tax returns or its calculations).

	 
	17.3	 	Tax indemnity

	 
	(a)	 	The Company shall (within three Business Days of demand by the Administrative Agent) pay (or
procure that the relevant Obligor pays) to a Protected Party an amount equal to the loss,

indirectly) suffered for or on account of Tax by that Protected Party in respect of a Finance
Document.

	 
	(b)	 	Paragraph (a) above shall not apply:

	 	(i)	 	with respect to any Tax assessed on a Finance Party:

	 	(A)	 	under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Finance Party
is incorporated or, if different, the jurisdiction (or jurisdictions) in which
that Finance Party is treated as resident for tax purposes; or

	 
	 	(B)	 	under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Finance Party’s
Facility Office is located in respect of amounts received or receivable in that
jurisdiction,

if that Tax (other than tax deducted or withheld from any payments) is imposed on or
calculated by reference to the net income received or receivable (but not any sum
deemed to be received or receivable) by that Finance Party; or

 

53

 

	 	(ii)	 	to the extent a loss, liability or cost:

	 	(A)	 	is compensated for by an increased payment under Clause 17.2
(Tax gross-up); or

	 
	 	(B)	 	would have been compensated for by an increased payment under
Clause 17.2 (Tax gross-up) but was not so compensated solely because one of the
exclusions in paragraph (d) of Clause 17.2 (Tax gross-up) applied.

	(c)	 	A Protected Party making, or intending to make a claim under paragraph (a) above shall
promptly notify the Administrative Agent of the event which will give, or has given, rise to
the claim, following which the Administrative Agent shall notify the Guarantor.

	 
	(d)	 	A Protected Party shall, on receiving a payment from an Obligor under this Clause 17.3,
notify the Administrative Agent.

	 
	17.4	 	Tax Credit

If the Company or the relevant Obligor makes a Tax Payment and the relevant Finance Party
determines that:

	(a)	 	a Tax Credit is attributable either to an increased payment of which that Tax Payment forms
part; or

	 
	(b)	 	that Finance Party has obtained, utilised and retained that Tax Credit,

the Finance Party shall (to the extent that that Finance Party can do so without prejudicing the
amount of the Tax Credit and the right of that Finance Party to obtain any other benefit, relief or
allowance which may be available to it) pay an amount to the Company or the relevant Obligor which
that Finance Party determines will leave it (after that payment) in the same after-Tax position as
it would have been in had the Tax Payment not been required to be made by the Obligor.

	17.5	 	Stamp taxes

The Company shall pay and, within three Business Days of demand, indemnify each Finance Party
against any cost, loss or liability that such Finance Party incurs in relation to all stamp duty,

	(a)	 	All amounts set out, or expressed in a Finance Document to be payable by any Party to a
Finance Party which (in whole or in part) constitute the consideration for a supply or
supplies for VAT purposes shall be deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which is such supply or
supplies, and accordingly, subject to paragraph (b) below, if VAT is or becomes chargeable on
any supply made by any Finance Party to any Party under a Finance Document, that Party shall
pay to the Finance Party (in addition to and at the same time as paying any other
consideration for such supply) an amount equal to the amount of such VAT (and such Finance
Party shall promptly provide an appropriate VAT invoice to such Party).

 

54

 

	(b)	 	If VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party (the “Supplier”) to
any other Finance Party (the “Recipient”) under a Finance Document, and any Party other than
the Recipient (the “Subject Party”) is required by the terms of any Finance Document to pay an
amount equal to the consideration for such supply to the Supplier (rather than being required
to reimburse the Recipient in respect of that consideration), such Party shall also pay to the
Supplier (in addition to and at the same time as paying such amount) an amount equal to the
amount of such VAT (and such Finance Party shall promptly provide an appropriate VAT invoice
to such Party). The Recipient will promptly pay to the Subject Party an amount equal to any
credit or repayment obtained by the Recipient from the relevant tax authority which the
Recipient reasonably determines in respect of such VAT.

	 
	(c)	 	Where a Finance Document requires any Party to reimburse or indemnify a Finance Party for any
cost or expense, that Party shall reimburse or indemnify (as the case may be) such Finance
Party for the full amount of such cost or expense, including such part thereof as represents
VAT, save to the extent that such Finance Party reasonably determines that it is entitled to
credit or repayment in respect of such VAT from the relevant tax authority in respect of the
VAT (and such Finance Party shall promptly provide an appropriate VAT invoice to such Party).

Increased Costs incurred by that Finance Party or any of its Affiliates as a result of (i) the
introduction of or any change in (or in the interpretation, administration or application of)
any law or regulation or (ii) compliance with any law or regulation made after the Signing

it is attributable to that Finance Party having entered into its Commitment or funding or
performing its obligations under any Finance Document or Letter of Credit.

	 
	18.2	 	Increased cost claims

	 
	(a)	 	A Finance Party intending to make a claim pursuant to Clause 18.1 (Increased costs) shall

provide a certificate confirming the amount of its Increased Costs.

	 
	18.3	 	Exceptions

	 
	(a)	 	Clause 18.1 (Increased costs) does not apply to the extent any Increased Cost is:

	 	(i)	 	attributable to a Tax Deduction required by law to be made by an Obligor;

	 
	 	(ii)	 	compensated for by Clause 17.3 (Tax indemnity) (or would have been compensated
for under Clause 17.3 (Tax indemnity) but was not so compensated solely because any of
the exclusions in paragraph (b) of Clause 17.3 (Tax indemnity) applied); or

	 
	 	(iii)	 	compensated for by the payment of the Mandatory Cost; or

	 
	 	(iv)	 	attributable to the wilful breach by the relevant Finance Party or its
Affiliates of any law or regulation.

purpose of:

	 	(i)	 	making or filing a claim or proof against that Obligor; or

	 
	 	(ii)	 	obtaining or enforcing an order, judgment or award in relation to any

	 	 	that Obligor shall as an independent obligation, within three Business Days of demand,
indemnify (to the extent permitted by law) the Arranger and each other Finance Party to whom
that Sum is due against any cost, loss or liability arising out of or as a result of the
conversion including any discrepancy between (A) the rate of exchange used to convert that
Sum from the First Currency into the Second Currency and (B) the rate or rates of exchange
available to that person at the time of its receipt of that Sum.

Finance Documents in a currency or currency unit other than that in which it is expressed to
be payable.

 

56

 

	19.2	 	Other indemnities

The Company shall (or shall procure that an Obligor will), within three Business Days of demand,

notice of prepayment given by a LG User or the Company.

	 
	19.3	 	Hold Harmless Provisions

	 
	Each Obligor agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Participating Bank and the Issuing
Bank, each Affiliate of any of the foregoing persons and each of their respective directors,
officers, employees, agents, trustees, attorneys, Affiliates and advisors (each such person being
called an “Indemnities” ) against, and to hold each Indemnities harmless from, any and all losses,
claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including reasonable counsel fees, charges and
disbursements, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnities arising out of, in any way connected
with, or as a result of:

57

 

in all cases, whether or not caused by or arising, in whole or in part, out of the comparative,

any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable
judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Obligor waives any claim against any Indemnitee

law dealing with such matters.

	 
	(c)	 	All payments due from the Company or any Subsidiary, or for which any claim may be made

individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect.

exclusively on any information provided to it by the Existing Participating Bank or any
other Finance Party in connection with any Finance Document; and

	 
	 	(ii)	 	will continue to make its own independent appraisal of the creditworthiness of

or recovery, to the Administrative Agent;

amount the Recovering Finance Party would have been paid had the receipt or recovery been
received or made by the Administrative Agent and distributed in accordance with Clause 32
(Payment Mechanics), without taking account of any Tax which would be imposed on the
Administrative Agent in relation to the receipt, recovery or distribution; and

	 
	(c)	 	the Recovering Finance Party shall, within three Business Days of demand by the
Administrative Agent, pay to the Administrative Agent an amount (the “Sharing Payment”) equal

	(a)	 	On a distribution by the Administrative Agent under Clause 31.2 (Redistribution of payments),

100

 

	(b)	 	If and to the extent that the Recovering Finance Party is not able to rely on its rights
under paragraph (a) above, the relevant Obligor shall be liable to the Recovering Finance
Party for a debt equal to the Sharing Payment which is immediately due and payable.

	 
	31.4	 	Reversal of redistribution

If any part of the Sharing Payment received or recovered by a Recovering Finance Party becomes
repayable and is repaid by that Recovering Finance Party, then:

	(a)	 	each Finance Party which has received a share of the relevant Sharing Payment pursuant to
Clause 31.2 (Redistribution of payments) shall, upon request of the Administrative Agent, pay
to the Administrative Agent for the account of that Recovering Finance Party an amount equal
to the appropriate part of its share of the Sharing Payment (together with an amount as is
necessary to reimburse that Recovering Finance Party for its proportion of any interest on the
Sharing Payment which that Recovering Finance Party is required to pay); and

	 
	(b)	 	that Recovering Finance Party’s rights of subrogation in respect of any reimbursement shall

amount so reimbursed.

which the Recovering Finance Party has received or recovered as a result of taking legal
(including for the avoidance of doubt an insolvency legal proceedings against an Obligor) or
arbitration proceedings, if:

	 	(i)	 	it notified the other Finance Party of the legal or arbitration proceedings;
and

arbitration proceedings but did not do so as soon as reasonably practicable having

	(b)	 	Each payment received by the Administrative Agent under the Finance Documents for another
Party shall, subject to Clause 32.3 (Distributions to an Obligor) and Clause 32.4 (Clawback)

	(b)	 	If the Administrative Agent pays an amount to another Party and it proves to be the case that
the Administrative Agent had not actually received that amount, then the Party to whom that
amount (or the proceeds of any related exchange contract) was paid by the Administrative Agent

directly and (while the Administrative Agent is an Impaired Administrative Agent) all the
provisions of the Finance Documents which require communications to be made or notices to be given
to or by the Administrative Agent shall be varied so that communications may be made and notices
given to or by the relevant Parties directly. This provision shall not operate after a replacement
Administrative Agent has been appointed.

	 	 	If any Participating Bank (a “Paper Form Participating Bank”) does not agree to the delivery
of information electronically then the Administrative Agent shall notify the Company

	 	 	If the Company notifies the Administrative Agent under paragraph (c)(i) or paragraph (c)(v)
above, all information to be provided by the Company under this Agreement
after the date of that notice shall be supplied in paper form unless and until the

of the matters to which they relate.

is calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a year of 360 days or, in any

practice.

	36.	 	PARTIAL INVALIDITY

If, at any time, any provision of the Finance Documents is or becomes illegal, invalid or

provision under the law of any other jurisdiction will in any way be affected or impaired.

 

109

 

	37.	 	REMEDIES AND WAIVERS

No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of any Finance Party, any right or

Participating Bank to (and such Participating Bank shall) transfer pursuant to Clause 27
(Changes to the Participating Banks) all (and not part only) of its rights and obligations
under this Agreement to a Participating Bank or other bank, financial institution, trust,
fund or other entity (a “Replacement Participating Bank”) selected by the Company, and which
is an Acceptable Bank, and is acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank
(acting reasonably), which confirms its willingness to assume and does assume all the
obligations of the transferring Participating Bank (including the assumption of the
transferring Participating Bank’s participations on the same basis as the transferring
Participating Bank including in respect of outstanding Letters of Credit) for a purchase
price in cash payable at the time of transfer equal to the outstanding principal amount of
such Participating Bank’s participation in the payments made by the Participating Bank
hereunder and not yet refunded to it, together with all accrued interest and/or Letter of
Credit fees and other amounts payable in relation thereto under the Finance Documents.

its failure or refusal to give a consent in relation to, or agree to any waiver or
amendment to the Finance Documents requested by the Company; and

	 
	 	(iv)	 	in no event shall the Participating Bank replaced under this paragraph (b) be
required to pay or surrender to such Replacement Participating Bank any of the fees
received by such Participating Bank pursuant to the Finance Documents.

	(c)	 	In the event that:

	 	(i)	 	the Company or the Administrative Agent (at the request of the Company) has
requested the Participating Banks to give a consent in relation to, or to agree to a
waiver or amendment of, any provisions of the Finance Documents;

	 
	 	(ii)	 	the consent, waiver or amendment in question requires the approval of all the
Participating Banks; and

	 
	 	(iii)	 	Participating Banks whose Commitments aggregate more than 76 per cent. of the
Total Commitment (or, if the Total Commitment have been reduced to zero, whose
participations in the outstanding Utilisations aggregated more than 76 per cent. of the
Total Commitment immediately prior to that reduction) have consented or agreed to such
waiver or amendment,

	 	 	then any Participating Bank who does not and continues not to consent or agree to such
waiver or amendment shall be deemed a “Non-Consenting Participating Bank”.

	 
	38.5	 	Disenfranchisement of Defaulting Participating Banks

	 
	(a)	 	For so long as a Defaulting Participating Bank has any Available Commitment, in ascertaining
the Majority Participating Banks or whether any given percentage (including, for the avoidance
of doubt, unanimity) of the Total Commitment has been obtained to approve any request for a
consent, waiver, amendment or other vote under the Finance Documents, that Defaulting
Participating Bank’s Commitments will be reduced by the amount of its Available Commitments.

	 
	(b)	 	For the purposes of this Clause 38.4, the Administrative Agent may assume that the following
Participating Banks are Defaulting Participating Banks:

	 	(i)	 	any Participating Bank which has notified the Administrative Agent that it has
become a Defaulting Participating Bank;

	 	(ii)	 	any Participating Bank in relation to which it is aware that any of the events
or circumstances referred to in paragraphs (a), (b), (c) or (d) of the definition of
“Defaulting Participating Bank” has occurred,

unless it has received notice to the contrary from the Participating Bank concerned (together with
any supporting evidence reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent) or the Administrative
Agent is otherwise aware that the Participating Bank has ceased to be a Defaulting Participating
Bank

	38.6	 	Replacement of a Non-Acceptable Participating Bank

	 
	(a)	 	The Administrative Agent may, at any time a Participating Bank has become and continues to be
a Non-Acceptable Participating Bank, by giving five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice

“Replacement Participating Bank”) selected by the Company, which is an Acceptable Bank and which is
acceptable to the Issuing Bank (acting reasonably), which confirms its willingness to assume and
does assume all the obligations or all the relevant obligations of the transferring Participating
Bank (including the assumption of the transferring Participating Bank’s participations or unfunded
participations (as the case may be) on the same basis as the transferring Participating Bank
including in respect of outstanding Letters of Credit) for a purchase price in cash payable at the
time of transfer equal to the outstanding principal amount of such Participating Bank’s
participation in the payments made by the Participating Bank hereunder and not yet refunded to it,
together with all accrued interest and/or Letter of Credit fees and other amounts payable in
relation thereto under the Finance Documents.

	(b)	 	Any transfer of rights and obligations of a Non-Acceptable Participating Bank pursuant to
this Clause shall be subject to the following conditions:

	 	(i)	 	the transfer must take place no later than ten (10) Business Days’ after the
