     The Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate are part of a duly authorized issue
of Warrants expiring the later of (a) January 10, 2009 and (b) the six month anniversary of the
earlier of (x) the payment in full of all Senior Credit Obligations (as defined) under that certain
Credit Agreement, dated on or about January 10, 2006, between ORBIMAGE Holdings Inc. (the
“Company”), ORBIMAGE SI Opco Inc., a Delaware corporation, ORBIMAGE SI Holdco Inc., a Delaware
corporation, the lenders from time to time parties thereto, the guarantors from time to time
parties thereto, Credit Suisse, Cayman Islands Branch, as administrative agent, and The Bank of New
York, as collateral agent, and (y) the redemption of all
outstanding shares of Series A Preferred
Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the “Expiration Date”), entitling the holder on
exercise to receive shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the “Common
Stock”), and are issued or to be issued pursuant to a Warrant Agreement dated on or about January
10, 2006 (the “Warrant Agreement”), duly executed and delivered by the Company to The Bank of New
York, a New York banking corporation, as warrant agent (the “Warrant Agent”), which Warrant
Agreement is hereby incorporated by reference in and made a part of this instrument and is hereby
referred to for a description of the rights, limitation of rights, obligations, duties and
immunities thereunder of the Warrant Agent, the Company and the holders (the words “holders” or
“holder” meaning the registered holders or
registered holder) of the Warrants. A copy of the
Warrant Agreement may be obtained by the holder hereof upon written request to the Company.

     Warrants may be exercised at any time on or before 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the
Expiration Date. The holder of Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate may exercise them by
surrendering this Warrant Certificate, with the form of election to purchase set forth hereon
properly completed and executed, together with payment of the Exercise Price as specified in the
Warrant Agreement, at the principal corporate trust office of the Warrant Agent. In lieu of payment
of the Exercise Price pursuant to the preceding sentence, the holder of the Warrants evidenced by
this Warrant Certificate may convert the Warrants, in whole or in part and at any time or times,
into Common Stock by surrendering this Warrant Certificate, with the form of notice of exchange set
forth hereon properly completed and executed, at the principal corporate trust office of the
Warrant Agent. In the event that upon any exercise of Warrants evidenced hereby the number of
Warrants exercised shall be less than the total number of Warrants evidenced hereby, there shall be
issued to the holder hereof or his assignee a new Warrant Certificate evidencing the number of
Warrants not exercised. No adjustment shall be made for any dividends on any Common Stock issuable
upon exercise of this Warrant.

     The Warrant Agreement provides that upon the occurrence of certain events the number of
Warrant Shares set forth on the face hereof may, subject to certain conditions, be adjusted. No
fractions of a share of Common Stock will be issued upon the exercise of any Warrant, but the
Company will pay the cash value thereof determined as provided in the Warrant Agreement.

     Warrant Certificates, when surrendered at the principal stock transfer office of the Warrant
Agent by the registered holder thereof in person or by legal representative or attorney duly
authorized in writing, may be exchanged, in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in
the Warrant Agreement, but without payment of any service charge, for another Warrant Certificate
or Warrant Certificates of like tenor evidencing in the aggregate a like number of Warrants.

     Upon due presentation for registration of transfer of this Warrant Certificate at the office
of the Warrant Agent a new Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates of like tenor and evidencing
in the aggregate a like number of Warrants shall be issued to the transferee(s) in exchange for
this Warrant Certificate, subject to the limitations provided in the Warrant Agreement, without
charge except for any tax or other governmental charge imposed in connection therewith.

     The Company and the Warrant Agent may deem and treat the holder(s) thereof as the absolute
owner(s) of this Warrant Certificate (notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing
hereon made by anyone), for the purpose of any exercise hereof, of any distribution to the
holder(s) hereof, and for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor the Warrant Agent shall
be affected by any notice to the contrary. Neither the Warrants nor this Warrant Certificate shall
entitle any holder hereof to any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company (including, without
limitation, any preemption rights, voting rights or rights to dividends) except upon exercise in
accordance with the terms hereof and of the Warrant Agreement. No provision hereof or of the
Warrant Agreement, in the absence of affirmative action by a holder hereof to purchase shares of
Common Stock, and no mere enumeration herein or in the Warrant Agreement of the rights or
privileges of the holder, shall give rise to any liability of such holder for the Warrant Price
hereunder or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or
by creditors of the Company.

ARTICLE II

THE CREDIT FACILITIES

          Section 2.01 Commitments to Lend.

          (a) Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender severally
agrees to make a Loan in accordance with its Commitment Percentage to the Borrower on the Closing
Date in a principal amount not exceeding the lesser of (i) its Commitment and (ii) the sum of the
Acquisition Price plus the transaction fees and expenses disclosed on Schedule 1.01B. The
Borrowing shall be made from the several Lenders ratably in proportion to their respective
Commitment Percentages. The Commitment is not revolving in nature, and amounts repaid or prepaid
prior to the Maturity Date may not be reborrowed.

          Section 2.02 Evidence of Loans.

          (a) Lender and Administrative Agent Accounts; Notes. The Loans made by each Lender
shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the
Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the
Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be presumptively correct absent manifest error of the
amount of the Loan made by the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any
failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the
obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any

- 29 -

 

amount owing with respect to the Senior Credit
Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any
Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the
accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.
Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute
and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a single Note substantially in the
form of Exhibit B payable to the order of such Lender for the account of its Lending Office
in an amount equal to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of such Lender’s Loans which shall
evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records.

          Section 2.03 Interest.

          (a) Eurodollar Rate Loans. Subject to Sections 3.02 and 3.03 of this Agreement, each
Borrowing shall be comprised of Eurodollar Loans, with an Interest Period as the Borrower may
request in writing at least three Business Days prior to the Closing Date; provided, that if a
Eurodollar Loan is unavailable pursuant to Section 3.02 of this Agreement, Borrowings will be
comprised entirely of Base Rate Loans.

          (b) Rates Applicable to Loans. Subject to the provisions of subsection (c)
below, each Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for
each Interest Period applicable thereto at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Adjusted
Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin. If a Eurodollar Loan is
unavailable pursuant to Section 3.02 of this Agreement, each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on
the outstanding principal amount thereof for each day from the date such Loan is made as, or
converted into, a Base Rate Loan until it becomes due or is converted into a Eurodollar Loan, at a
rate per annum equal to the Base Rate for such day plus the Applicable Margin.

          (c) Additional Interest.

          (i) If any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Loan shall thereafter
bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default
Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

          (ii) Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due
interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.

          (d) Interest Payments. Interest on the Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on
each Interest Payment Date and at such other times as may be specified herein. Interest hereunder
shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before
and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

          (e) Determination and Notice of Interest Rates. The Administrative Agent shall
promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period
for Eurodollar Loans (or Base Rate Loans, if applicable) upon determination of such interest rate.

          Section 2.04 Extension and Conversion.

          (a) Continuation and Conversion Options. The Borrower shall have the option, on any
Business Day (subject in each case to the provisions of Article III) to continue such Loans as
Eurodollar Loans for an additional Interest Period, subject to Section 3.05 in the case of any such
conversion or continuation effective on any day other than the last day of the then current
Interest Period applicable to such Loans. Each such election shall be made by delivering a notice,
substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (a “Notice of Extension/Conversion”)
(which may be by telephone if promptly confirmed in writing), to the Administrative Agent not later
than 12:00 Noon on the third Business Day before the conversion or

- 30 -

 

continuation selected in such
notice is to be effective. A Notice of Extension/Conversion may, if it so specifies, apply to only
a portion of the aggregate principal amount of the Loan; provided that the portion of Eurodollar
Loans to which such Notice applies is $5,000,000 or any larger multiple of $1,000,000.

          (b) Contents of Notice of Extension/Conversion. Each Notice of Extension/Conversion
shall specify:

          (i) the Group of Loans (or portion thereof) to which such notice applies;

          (ii) the date on which the conversion or continuation selected in such notice is to be
effective, which shall comply with the applicable clause of subsection 2.04(a)
above; and

          (iii) if the Loans comprising such Group are to be converted, the new type of Loans.

Each Interest Period specified in a Notice of Interest Rate Election shall comply with the
provisions of the definition of the term “Interest Period”. If no Notice of Extension/Conversion
is timely received prior to the end of an Interest Period for any Group of Eurodollar Loans, the
Borrower shall be deemed to have elected that such Group be continued from the existing Interest
Period.

          (c) Notification to Lenders. Upon receipt of a Notice of Extension/Conversion from
the Borrower pursuant to subsection 2.04(a) above, the Administrative Agent shall promptly
notify each Lender of the contents thereof.

          Section 2.05 Maturity of Loans.

          The Loans shall mature on the Maturity Date, and any principal amount then outstanding
(together with accrued interest thereon and fees in respect thereof) shall be due and payable on
such date.

          Section 2.06 Prepayments.

          (a) Voluntary Prepayments. The Borrower shall have the right voluntarily to prepay
the Loan in whole or in part from time to time, subject to Section 2.06(c) and Section
3.05, but otherwise without premium or penalty; provided, however, that (i)
each partial prepayment shall be in a minimum principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of
$1,000,000 in excess thereof, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, and $500,000 or a whole multiple of
$100,000 in excess thereof, in the case of Base Rate Loans and (ii) the Borrower shall have given
prior written or telecopy notice (or telephone notice promptly confirmed by written or telecopy
notice) to the Administrative Agent, by 11:00 A.M., at least three Business Days prior to the date
of prepayment. Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount
to be prepaid, whether the Loan to be prepaid is a Eurodollar Loan or a Base Rate Loan and, in the
case of a
Eurodollar Loan, the Interest Period of such Loan. The Administrative Agent will promptly
notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s pro-rata
share, if any, thereof. If such notice is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall make such
prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable as specified
therein. Subject to the foregoing, amounts prepaid under this Section 2.06(a) shall be
applied first to pay all accrued and unpaid interest on the portion of the Loan being prepaid and
then to pay the unpaid principal amount of the portion of the Loan being prepaid. Subject to the
foregoing, amounts prepaid under this Section 2.06(a) shall be applied first to Base Rate
Loans and then to Eurodollar Loans, unless the Borrower requests otherwise and pays any breakage
fees incurred in connection therewith and due under Section 3.05. All prepayments of
Eurodollar Loans under this Section 2.06(a) shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the
principal amount being prepaid to the date of payment, together with any additional amounts
required pursuant to Section 3.05.

- 31 -

 

          (b) Mandatory Prepayments.

          (i) Excess Cash Flow. Within 60 days after the end of each fiscal quarter
(commencing with the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2006), the Borrower shall prepay the
Loan in an amount equal to 100% of the Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal quarter, less the
portion thereof that the Borrower deposits into a deposit account in which the Collateral
Agent has a security interest on behalf of itself and the Lenders, so long as the total cash
and Cash Equivalents of the Group Companies does not exceed $6,000,000 immediately after
giving effect to such deposit and prepayment.

          (ii) Asset Dispositions, Casualties and Condemnations, etc. Promptly (but in
any event within five Business Days) upon receipt by any Group Company of Net Cash Proceeds
from any Asset Disposition (other than any Excluded Asset Disposition), Casualty or
Condemnation or any cash or Cash Equivalents paid to any Group Company or their Affiliates
under the Acquisition Agreement (including as a result of any indemnity payment by the
Seller (including through any amounts held in escrow) to any Group Company or their
Affiliates), the Borrower shall, unless a Reinvestment Notice has been delivered, prepay the
Loan in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds of such Asset
Disposition, Casualty or Condemnation or 100% of such cash or Cash Equivalents paid pursuant
to the Acquisition Agreement.

          (iii) Debt Issuances. Immediately upon receipt by any Group Company of Net
Cash Proceeds from any Debt Issuance (other than any Debt Issuance permitted pursuant to
Section 7.01 of this Agreement), the Borrower shall prepay the Loan in an aggregate
amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds of such Debt Issuance.

          (iv) Equity Issuances. Immediately upon receipt by any Group Company of Net
Cash Proceeds from any Equity Issuance (other than any Excluded Equity Issuance), the
Borrower shall prepay the Loan in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds
of such Equity Issuance.

          (c) Prepayment Premium. Whenever any (i) prepayment of principal of the Loan is made
(including by reason of the provisions of this Section 2.06) or (ii) repayment of principal
of the Loan is required as a result of a declaration pursuant to Article VIII that the Loan
is due and payable, the Borrower shall on the date of such prepayment or declaration, as
applicable, pay to the Lenders a prepayment premium equal to (A) if such prepayment or declaration
occurs prior to the date that is two years after the Closing Date, the Make-Whole Premium with
respect to the principal amount of the Loan or portion thereof so prepaid and (B) if such
prepayment or declaration occurs after the date that is two years after the Closing Date and prior
to the Maturity Date, 2.0% of the principal amount of the Loan or portion thereof so prepaid;
provided that no such prepayment premium shall be required in respect of (i) any
prepayments of principal of the Loan under Section 2.06(b)(i) in respect of Excess Cash
Flow and (ii) and prepayments of principal of the
Loan that is made pursuant to Section 2.06(b)(ii) in respect of Net Cash Proceeds from
a Casualty or Condemnation.

          Section 2.07 Fees.

          The Borrower shall pay to each Lender on the Closing Date for the Lender’s own respective
account a cash funding fee in an amount equal to 1.50% of such Lender’s Commitment. Such fees
shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.

          Section 2.08 Pro-rata Treatment. Each payment or prepayment of principal of or interest on
any Loan, each payment of fees and each conversion or continuation of the Loan shall be allocated
pro-rata among the relevant Lenders in accordance with the respective Commitment Percentages of
such Lenders

- 32 -

 

(or, if the Commitments of such Lenders have expired or been terminated, in accordance
with the respective principal amounts of the outstanding Loans of such Lenders); provided
that, in the event any amount paid to any Lender pursuant to this Section 2.08 is rescinded
or must otherwise be returned by the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall, upon the request of
the Administrative Agent, repay to the Administrative Agent the amount so paid to such Lender, with
interest for the period commencing on the date such payment is returned by the Administrative Agent
until the date the Administrative Agent receives such repayment at a rate per annum equal to,
during the period to but excluding the date two Business Days after such request, the Federal Funds
Rate, and thereafter, the Base Rate plus 2.00% per annum.

          Section 2.09 Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback.

          (a) Payments by the Borrower. All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made
without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Each payment
of principal of and interest on the Loan and fees hereunder shall be paid not later than 2:00 P.M.
on the date when due, in Federal or other funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent
at the account designated by it by notice to the Borrower. Payments received after 2:00 P.M. shall
be deemed to have been received on the next Business Day, and any applicable interest or fee shall
continue to accrue. All payments made in cash by Parent pursuant to the Parent Preferred Stock
shall, to the extent set forth in Section 8.03, be considered payments of principal
hereunder for purposes of calculating the remaining outstanding principal amount hereunder. The
Borrower shall, at the time it makes any payments under this Agreement, specify to the
Administrative Agent the fees or other amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder to which such
payment is to be applied (and if it fails to specify or if such application would be inconsistent
with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall, subject to Section 2.08, distribute
such payment to the Lenders in such manner as the Administrative Agent may deem reasonably
appropriate). The Administrative Agent may in its sole discretion distribute such payments to the
applicable Lenders on the date of receipt thereof, if such payment is received prior to 2:00 P.M.;
otherwise the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, distribute such payment to the
applicable Lenders on the date of receipt thereof or on the immediately succeeding Business Day.
Whenever any payment hereunder shall be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the date for
payment thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day (and such extension of time
shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be), unless (in the case of
Eurodollar Loans) such Business Day falls in another calendar month, in which case the date for
payment thereof shall be the next preceding Business Day. If the date for any payment of principal
is extended by operation of Law or otherwise, interest thereon shall be payable for such extended
time. Effective during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Borrower hereby authorizes and
directs the Administrative Agent to debit any account maintained by the Borrower with the
Administrative Agent to pay when due any amounts required to be paid from time to time under this
Agreement.

          (b) Payments by Borrower; Presumptions by the Administrative Agent. Unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice (which may be by telephone if promptly confirmed in
writing) from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders that the
Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made
such payment on such date in accordance herewith, and may, in reliance upon such assumption,
distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such
payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith
on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender, in immediately available funds with interest
thereon, for each day from and including the date such is amount is distributed to but excluding
the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a
rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank
compensation.

          (c) Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available to the
Administrative Agent funds for the Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing
provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the Borrower by the
Administrative Agent because

- 33 -

 

the conditions set forth in Article IV are not satisfied or
waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in
like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender without interest.

          (d) Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make
Loans are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make a Loan required to be made by
it as part of any Borrowing hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any,
hereunder to make the Loan, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender
to make the Loan to be made by such other Lender.

          (e) Funding Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain
the funds for the Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any
Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for the Loan in any particular place or
manner.

          (f) Computations. All computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of
a 360-day year and actual days elapsed. Interest shall accrue on the Loan for the day on which
Loan is made (or converted or continued), and shall not accrue on the Loan, or any portion thereof,
for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that if the Loan is repaid
on the same day on which it is made (or continued or converted), it shall, subject to
subsection (a) above, bear interest for one day. Each determination by the Administrative
Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be presumptively correct, absent manifest error.

ARTICLE III

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

          Section 3.01 Taxes.

          (a) Payments Free of Taxes. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or by
applicable law, any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder
or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or
withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, provided that if the Borrower shall
be required by applicable Law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) from such
payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all
required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section)
the Administrative Agent or Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it
would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions
and (iii) the Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental
Authority in accordance with applicable Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower
shall not be required to increase any such payments by or on account of any obligation of the
Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document with respect to any Taxes (i) that are
attributable to the Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s failure to comply with the requirements
of subsection (e) of this Section or (ii) that are United States withholding taxes imposed
on amounts payable to such Administrative Agent or Lender at the time such Administrative Agent or
Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, except to the extent that such Administrative Agent’s or
Lender’s assignor (if any) was entitled, at the time of assignment, to receive additional amounts
from the Borrower with respect to such Taxes pursuant to this subsection (a).

          (b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. Without limiting the provisions of
subsection (a) above, the Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant
Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law.

          (c) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative
Agent and each Lender, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified
Taxes

- 34 -

 

or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes, Other Taxes or Excluded Taxes imposed or
asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) that Borrower was required to
pay pursuant to subsection (a) above and that was paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender,
as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with
respect thereto, excluding any penalties or interest that arise because of the Administrative
Agent’s or Lender’s failure to take any action required by applicable law. Payments under this
subsection (c) shall be made within 30 days after the date such Lender or Administrative Agent
makes a written demand therefore accompanied by either (i) a copy of the receipt issued by a
Governmental Authority evidencing the Lender’s or Administrative Agent’s payment of such
Indemnified Taxes, Other Taxes and applicable Excluded Taxes, or (ii) if the Lender or
Administrative Agent determines that it is unable to provide a copy of such receipt without making
its tax returns available to the Borrower, a certificate as to the amount of such payment or
liability prepared in good faith.

          (d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified
Taxes or Other Taxes pursuant to subsection (a) above by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority,
the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a
receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return
reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent.

          (e) Status of Lenders. Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or
reduction of withholding tax under the Law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is resident
for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments
hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent), on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement and at the time
or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed
and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Law as will permit such payments to be made
without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender that is not a
Foreign Lender, if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other
documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether
or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.

          Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any Foreign Lender shall deliver to the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the
recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this
Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative
Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is
applicable:

          (i) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility
for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party;

          (ii) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI;

          (iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for
portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, (A) a certificate to the effect that
such Foreign Lender is not (x) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the
Code, (y) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of section
881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (z) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section
881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (B) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form
W-8BEN, or

          (iv) any other form prescribed by applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from
or a reduction in United States Federal withholding tax duly completed together with such
supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower to
determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

          Each Foreign Lender shall (i) promptly notify Borrower at any time it determines that it is no
longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to the Borrower (or any other
form of certification adopted by the United States taxing authorities for such purpose) and (ii)
take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of the
Foreign Lender, and as may be reasonably necessary (including designating a different Lending
Office under Section 3.07(a)) to avoid any requirement of applicable laws of any such jurisdiction
that Borrower make any deduction or withholding for taxes from amount payable to such Foreign
Lender.

          Furthermore, each Lender that is not a Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior
to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time
thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), duly completed copies of
Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, or any subsequent versions or successors to such form.

          (f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If the Administrative Agent or any Lender
determines, in its good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to
which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid
additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall promptly pay to the Borrower an amount equal
to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by
the Borrower under this Section with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such
refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case
may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority
with respect to such refund), provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the
Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any
penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the
Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is
required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority provided further that in no event
shall the Borrower be required to pay the Administrative Agent or any Lender an amount in excess of
the amount received under this Section 3.01(f). This subsection shall not be construed to require
the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information
relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

          Section 3.02 Illegality. If, on or after the date of this Agreement, the adoption of any
applicable Law, or any change in any applicable Law, or any change in the interpretation or
administration thereof by any Governmental Authority,
central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or
compliance by any Lender (or its Lending Office) with any request or directive having the force of
Law of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency first made after the Effective Date
shall make it unlawful or impossible for any Lender (or its Lending Office) to make, maintain or
fund any of its Eurodollar Loans and such Lender shall so notify the Administrative Agent, the
Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the other Lenders and the Borrower,
whereupon, until such Lender notifies the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that the
circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist (which it shall do reasonably
promptly), the obligation of such Lender to make Eurodollar Loans, or to convert outstanding Loans
into Eurodollar Loans, shall be suspended. Before giving any notice to the Administrative Agent
pursuant to this Section 3.02, such Lender shall designate a different Lending Office if
such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice and will not, in the judgment of such
Lender, be otherwise materially disadvantageous to such Lender. If such notice is given, each
Eurodollar Loan of such Lender then outstanding shall be converted to a Base Rate Loan either (i)
on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Loan, if such
Lender may lawfully continue to maintain and fund such Loan to such day or (ii) immediately, if
such Lender shall determine that it may not lawfully continue to maintain and fund such Loan to
such day.

          Section 3.03 Inability to Determine Rates. If on or prior to the first day of any Interest
Period for any Eurodollar Loan:

- 36 -

 

          (i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be presumptively
correct absent manifest error) that by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant
market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable
Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period; or

          (ii) Lenders having 50% or more of the aggregate amount of the Loans advise the
Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Rate as determined by the Administrative Agent will
not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding their Eurodollar Loans
for such Interest Period;

the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders,
whereupon, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise
to such suspension no longer exist, (i) the obligations of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Loans, or
to continue or convert outstanding Loans as or into Eurodollar Loans, shall be suspended and (ii)
each outstanding Eurodollar Loan shall be converted into a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the
then current Interest Period applicable thereto.

          Section 3.04 Increased Costs and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy.

          (a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law after the Effective Date shall:

          (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan,
insurance charge or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits with or for the
account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (or its Lending Office)
(except any reserve requirement which is reflected in the determination of the Adjusted
Eurodollar Rate hereunder);

          (ii) subject any Lender (or its Lending Office) to any tax of any kind whatsoever with
respect to this Agreement or any Eurodollar Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation
of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other
Taxes and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by
such Lender);

          (iii) impose on any Lender (or its Lending Office) or the London interbank market any
other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such
Lender;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender (or its Lending
Office) of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any
such Loan), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder
(whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender, the
Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender
for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

          (b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law made after
the Effective Date affecting such Lender or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s
holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing
the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if
any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by such
Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have
achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the
policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time
the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such
Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

- 37 -

 

          (c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender setting forth in
reasonable detail with supporting calculations the amount necessary to compensate such Lender or
its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of
this Section and delivered to the Borrower shall be presumptively correct absent manifest error.
The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days
after receipt thereof.

          (d) Delays in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand
compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section shall not constitute a waiver of
such Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrower shall not be
required to compensate a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any
increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six months prior to the date that such
Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions
and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law
giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period
referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

          Section 3.05 Compensation for Losses. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and
hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense (except for lost profits) directly and
actually incurred by it as a result of:

          (i) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan other than a Base
Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (whether
voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise); or

          (ii) any failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to
make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert the Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on
the date or in the amount notified by the Borrower.

The Borrower shall also pay any reasonable administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection
with the foregoing.

          Section 3.06 Base Rate Loans Substituted for Affected Eurodollar Loans. If (i) the
obligation of any Lender to continue or convert outstanding Loans as or to Eurodollar Loans has
been suspended pursuant to Section 3.02 or (ii) any Lender has demanded compensation under
Section 3.01 or 3.04 with respect to its Eurodollar Loans, and in any such case the
Borrower shall, by at least five Business Days’ prior notice to such Lender through the
Administrative Agent, have elected that the provisions of this Section 3.06 shall apply to
such Lender, then, unless and until such Lender notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving
rise to such suspension or demand for compensation no longer exist, all Loans which would otherwise
be made by such Lender as (or continued as or converted to) Eurodollar Loans shall instead be Base
Rate Loans (on which interest and principal shall be payable contemporaneously with the related
Eurodollar Loans of the other Lenders). If such Lender notifies the Borrower that the
circumstances giving rise to such suspension or demand for compensation no longer exist (which it
shall do reasonably promptly), the principal amount of each such Base Rate Loan shall be converted
into a Eurodollar Loan on the first day of the next succeeding Interest Period applicable to the
related Eurodollar Loans of the other Lenders.

          Section 3.07 Mitigation Obligations.

          (a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation
under Section 3.04, or the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender
or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if
any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02, then such Lender shall use reasonable
efforts to designate a different Lending Office for

- 38 -

 

funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to
assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if,
in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce
amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04, as the case may be, in the
future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 3.02, as applicable, and
(ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not
otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable
costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

          Section 3.08 Survival. All of the Borrower’s obligations under this Article III
shall survive termination of the Commitments and repayment of all other Senior Credit Obligations
hereunder.

Parent and each Loan Party of each Loan Document to which such Person is party have

it is a party except, in each case, as could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the
aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.

          Section 5.04 Binding Effect. This Agreement has been, and each other Loan Document, when
delivered hereunder, will have been, duly executed and delivered by each Loan Party that is party
thereto. This Agreement constitutes, and each other
Loan Document when so delivered will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Loan

except (i) as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally
and (ii) that rights of acceleration and the availability of equitable remedies may be limited by
equitable principles of general applicability (regardless of whether enforcement is sought by
proceedings in equity or at law).

          (a) Audited Financial Statements. The Audited Financial Statements (i) were prepared
in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the period covered thereby, except as
otherwise expressly noted therein; (ii) fairly present the financial condition of each of (A)
Parent and its Subsidiaries and (B) the Acquired Business, in each case as of the date thereof and

(iii) show all material indebtedness and other liabilities, direct or contingent, of (A) Parent and
its Subsidiaries and (B) the Acquired Business as of the date thereof, including liabilities for
taxes, material commitments and Indebtedness.

footnotes and normal year-end audit adjustments), the consolidated financial position of (A) Parent
and its Consolidated Subsidiaries and (B) the Acquired Business as of such date and their
consolidated results of operations and cash flows for such six-month period (subject to normal
year-end audit adjustments).

          (c) Material Adverse Effect. Since the date of the Audited Financial Statements,
nothing has occurred which could, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have,
individually or in the aggregate, (i) a material adverse effect on the financial condition,
business, operations, assets, liabilities or property of Parent and its Subsidiaries, taken as a
whole or (ii) a Material Adverse Effect.

- 43 -

 

          (d) Pro-Forma Financial Statements. The pro-forma balance sheet delivered pursuant to
Section 4.01(o) has been prepared in good faith by Holdings, based on assumptions deemed reasonable
by Holdings at the time made, accurately reflects all material adjustments required to be made to
give effect to the Transaction, including estimated purchase price accounting adjustments, and
presents fairly on a pro-forma basis the estimated consolidated financial position of Holdings and
its Consolidated Subsidiaries as of the end of such month, assuming that the Transaction had
actually occurred on that date.

          (e) Projections. The projections delivered by Parent to the Lenders prior to the
Effective Date with respect to the Acquired Business have in each case been prepared on a basis
consistent with the financial statements referred to in subsection (a) above and are based
on good faith estimates and assumptions made by management of Parent, it being recognized by the
Lenders, however, that projections as to future events are not to be viewed as facts and that
actual results during the period or periods covered by such projections may differ from the
projected results and that such differences may be material.

          (f) Post-Closing Financial Statements. The financial statements delivered to the
Lenders pursuant to Section 6.01(a) and (b), if any, (i) have been prepared in

be made against Holdings or any its Subsidiaries, on account of wages and employee health and
welfare insurance and other benefits, have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of
Holdings or any its Subsidiaries except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected
to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The consummation of the Transactions will not give rise to

In-Orbit Insurance is obtained for only a portion of the In-Orbit Insurance Period and (y) to the
extent such insurance is for less than $20.0 million). Within 20 days of the Effective Date, the
Collateral Agent shall have received certificates of insurance of the Loan Parties and their
Subsidiaries reasonably acceptable to the Lenders and evidencing liability and casualty insurance
meeting the requirements set forth in the Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, naming the
Collateral Agent as additional insured or loss payee, as appropriate, on behalf of the Lenders.
After such time, the Collateral Agent shall be named as loss payee or mortgagee, as its interest
may appear, with respect to all such property and casualty policies and additional insured with
respect to all such other policies (other than workers’ compensation, employee health and
directors’ and officers’ policies), and each provider of any such insurance shall agree, by
endorsement upon the policy or policies issued by it or by independent instruments furnished to the
Collateral Agent, that if the insurance carrier shall have received

- 52 -

 

written notice from the Collateral Agent of the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, the insurance carrier
will give the Collateral Agent 30 days’ prior written notice before any such policy or policies
shall be canceled, and that no act or default of any Group Company or any other Person shall affect
the rights of the Collateral Agent or the Lenders under such policy or policies.

          (b) Loss Events. In case of any Casualty or Condemnation with respect to any property
of any Group Company or any part thereof (other than a complete loss of a Satellite), the Borrower
shall promptly give written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent generally describing the
nature and extent of such damage, destruction or taking. In such case, the Borrower may, at its
option, cause such Group Company to, promptly repair, restore or replace the property of such
Person (or part thereof) which was subject to such Casualty or Condemnation, at such Person’s cost
and expense, whether or not the Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Award, if any, received on
account of such event shall be sufficient for that purpose; provided, that such property
need not be repaired, restored or replaced to the extent such Person concludes that the failure to
make such repair, restoration or replacement (i)(A) is desirable to the proper conduct of the
business of such Person in the ordinary course and otherwise in the best interest of such Person
and (B) would not materially impair the rights and benefits of the Collateral Agent or the Finance
Parties under the Collateral Documents or any other Loan Document or (ii) the failure to repair,
restore or replace the property is attributable to the application of the Insurance Proceeds from
such Casualty or the Condemnation Award from such Condemnation to payment of the Senior Credit
Obligations in accordance with the following provisions of this Section 6.07(b). If
Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries shall receive any Insurance Proceeds from a Casualty or
Condemnation Award from a Condemnation, in each case attributable to a Satellite, such Person will
promptly pay over such proceeds to the Administrative Agent, for payment of the Senior Credit
Obligations in accordance with Section 2.06(b)(ii).

          Section 6.08 Compliance with Laws. Each of the Group Companies will comply with all requirements of Law applicable to it and its properties to the extent that noncompliance with any
such requirement of Law could, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

          Section 6.09 Books and Records. Each of the Group Companies will keep complete and accurate books and records of its transactions in accordance with GAAP (including the establishment
and maintenance of appropriate reserves if required by GAAP) and will maintain such books and records and accounts in material conformity with all
applicable requirements of any Governmental Authority having regulatory jurisdiction over any Group
Company, except where the failure to do so could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably
be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

          Section 6.10 Inspection Rights. Upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours, each of the Group Companies will permit representatives appointed by the Administrative Agent,
including independent accountants, agents and employees to visit and inspect its property,
including its books and records, its facilities and its other business assets, and to make
photocopies or photographs thereof and to write down and record any information such
representatives obtain and shall permit the Agents or such representatives to investigate and
verify the accuracy of information provided to the Lenders and to discuss all such matters with the
officers, employees, independent accountants, attorneys and representatives of the Group Companies;
provided that so long as no Event of Default has occurred during such fiscal year, only one
such visit and inspection per fiscal year of the Group Companies shall be at the expense of the
Group Companies; provided further that if an Event of Default has occurred during
such fiscal year, all such visits and inspections, without limitation, shall be at the sole expense
of the Group Companies. Each of Holdings and the Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes and
directs all accountants and auditors employed by it at any time during the term of this Agreement
to exhibit and deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders copies of any of the financial
statements, trial balances or other accounting records of any sort of any Group Company in the
accountant’s or auditor’s possession, and to disclose to the Administrative Agent and the

- 53 -

 

Lenders any information they may have concerning the financial status and business operations of any Group
Company.

          Section 6.11 Use of Proceeds. The Borrower will use the proceeds of the Loans solely for the purposes set forth in Section 5.18.

          Section 6.12 Additional Loan Parties; Additional Security.

          (a) Additional Subsidiary Guarantors. Each of Holdings and the Borrower will take,
and will cause each of its Subsidiaries (other than Foreign Subsidiaries) to take, such actions
from time to time as shall be necessary to ensure that all Subsidiaries of Holdings (other than the
Borrower and Foreign Subsidiaries) are Subsidiary Guarantors. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, if any Loan Parties shall form or acquire any new Subsidiary, the Borrower, as soon
as practicable and in any event within 30 days after such formation or acquisition, will provide
the Collateral Agent with notice of such formation or acquisition setting forth in reasonable
detail a description of all of the material assets of such new Subsidiary and will cause such new
Subsidiary (other than a Foreign Subsidiary) to:

          (i) within 30 days after such formation or acquisition, execute a Joinder Agreement
pursuant to which such new Subsidiary shall agree to become a “Guarantor” under the Guaranty
and a “Pledgor” under the Security Agreement; and

          (ii) deliver such proof of organizational authority, incumbency of officers, opinions
of counsel (for non-Delaware entities) and other documents as is consistent with those
delivered by each Loan Party pursuant to Section 4.01 on the Closing Date or as the
Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent shall have reasonably requested.

          (b) Additional Security. Each of Holdings and the Borrower will cause, and will cause
each of its Subsidiaries (other than a Foreign Subsidiary) to cause (i) all of its Owned Real
Properties and personal property with a fair market value in excess of $1.5 million, and (ii) all
other assets and properties of Holdings and its Subsidiaries as are not covered by the original
Collateral Documents (and except for vehicles) to be subject at all times to first priority (subject only to Permitted Liens),
perfected and, in the case of Owned Real Property, title insured Liens in favor of the Collateral
Agent pursuant to the Collateral Documents or such other security agreements, pledge agreements,
mortgages or similar collateral documents as either the Administrative Agent or the Collateral
Agent shall request in its reasonable discretion (collectively, the “Additional Collateral
Documents”). With respect to any Owned Real Property acquired by any Loan Party subsequent to
the Closing Date, such Person will cause to be delivered to the Collateral Agent with respect to
such Owned Real Property, documents, instruments and other items of the types reasonably required
to be delivered, all in form, content and scope reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent
and the Collateral Agent. In furtherance of the foregoing terms of this Section 6.12, the
Borrower agrees to promptly provide the Administrative Agent with written notice of the acquisition
by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries of any Owned Real Property having a market value greater
than $1.0 million or more in the aggregate, setting forth in each case in reasonable detail the
location and a description of the asset(s) so acquired or leased. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, Holdings and the Borrower will cause, and will cause each of their respective
Subsidiaries to cause, 100% of the Equity Interests of each of their respective direct and indirect
Subsidiaries (or 65% of such Equity Interests, if such Subsidiary is a direct Foreign Subsidiary)
to be subject at all times to a first priority, perfected Lien in favor of the Collateral Agent
pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Collateral Documents, subject only to Permitted Liens.

          All such security interests and mortgages shall be granted pursuant to documentation
substantially consistent with the Collateral Documents executed at Closing or otherwise reasonably
satisfactory in form and substance to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent and shall
constitute valid and enforceable perfected security interests and mortgages superior to and prior
to the rights of all third

- 54 -

 

Persons and subject to no other Liens except for Permitted Liens. The
Additional Collateral Documents or instruments related thereto shall have been duly recorded or
filed in such manner and in such places as are required by law to establish, perfect, preserve and
protect the Liens in favor of the Collateral Agent required to be granted pursuant to the
Additional Collateral Documents.

          (c) Real Property Appraisals. If the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or
the Required Lenders reasonably determine that they are required by Law or regulation to have
appraisals prepared in respect of the Owned Real Property of any Group Company constituting
Collateral, the Borrower shall provide to the Collateral Agent appraisals which satisfy the
applicable requirements set forth in 12 C.F.R., Part 34 — Subpart C or any successor or similar
statute, rule, regulation, guideline or order, and which shall be in scope, form and substance, and
from appraisers, reasonably satisfactory to the Required Lenders and shall be accompanied by a
certification of the appraisal firm providing such appraisals that the appraisals comply with such
requirements.

          (d) Each of Holdings and the Borrower agrees that each action required by this Section
6.12 shall be completed as soon as possible, but in no event later than 60 days after such
action is either requested to be taken by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the
Required Lenders or required to be taken by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to the
terms of this Section 6.12.

          Section 6.13 Cash Management System. Within 90 days following the Closing Date, the
Borrower will establish, and, once established, for so long as any Senior Credit Obligation or
other amount payable hereunder or under any Note or other Loan Document (in each case other than
contingent indemnification obligations) remains unpaid will maintain, the cash management systems
described below in this Section 6.13 (the “Cash Management Systems”):

          (a) The Borrower shall request in writing and otherwise take such reasonable steps to ensure
that all of its Account Debtors forward payment of the amounts owed by them directly to one or more
of the banks set forth on Schedule 6.13 (the “Cash Management Banks”), and deposit
or cause to be deposited promptly all Collections of Borrower (including those sent directly by
Account Debtors to a Cash Management Bank) into a bank account (a “Cash Management Account”) at one of the Cash
Management Banks.

          (b) Each Cash Management Bank shall establish and maintain a blocked account agreement with
Collateral Agent and the Borrower, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Collateral
Agent and the Administrative Agent (each, a “Blocked Account Agreement”).

          (c) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower may amend
Schedule 6.13 to add or replace a Cash Management Account Bank or Cash Management Account;
provided, however, that prior to the time of the opening of such Cash Management
Account, the Borrower and such prospective Cash Management Bank shall have executed and delivered
to the Collateral Agent a Blocked Account Agreement.

          (d) The Cash Management Accounts shall be cash collateral accounts, with all cash, checks and
similar items of payment in such accounts securing payment of the Senior Credit Obligations or
other amount payable hereunder or under any Note or other Loan Document, and in which the Loan
Parties are hereby deemed to have granted a Lien to Collateral Agent

          Section 6.14 Access and Command Codes.

          (a) At any time upon an acceleration by the Lenders of the Loans pursuant to Article VIII, and
upon notification thereof by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower will, and will cause its
Subsidiaries to, promptly deliver to the Collateral Agent, subject to having obtained any requisite
consent or

- 55 -

 

approval of, or registration or filing with, any Governmental Authority for such
delivery, all existing access codes, command codes and command encryption necessary, in the sole
judgment of the Administrative Agent, to establish access to and perform TT&C Services for any
Satellite for which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries provides TT&C Services that has not
been decommissioned or otherwise suffered an actual or constructive total loss, including
activation and control of any spacecraft subsystems and payload components and the transponders
thereon and any changes to or modifications of such codes and encryption.

          (b) The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to:

          (i) at the request of the Administrative Agent, upon notification by the Administrative
Agent that such an acceleration pursuant to Article VIII has occurred, use its best efforts
to obtain promptly from each provider (other than the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries)
of TT&C Services for any Satellite, consents and agreements with the Collateral Agent to
deliver expeditiously to the Collateral Agent, subject to having obtained any consent or
approval of, or registration or filing with, any Governmental Authority for such delivery,
all access codes, command codes and command encryption necessary to establish access to and
perform TT&C Services for any such Satellite that has not been decommissioned or otherwise
suffered an actual or constructive total loss, including activation and control of any
spacecraft subsystems and payload components and the transponders thereon;

          (ii) at the request of Administrative Agent, upon notification by the Administrative
Agent that an acceleration pursuant to Article VIII has occurred, take all steps necessary,
to obtain any consent or approval of, or registration or filing with, any Governmental

related technical data (including any license approving the export or re-export of such
Satellite or related technical data to any Person or Persons as designated by the
Administrative Agent); and

          (iii) deliver to the Collateral Agent written evidence of the issuance of any such
consent, approval, registration or filing once such consent, approval, registration or
filing has been obtained.

          (c) At any time following the delivery of any access codes, command codes or command
encryption to the Administrative Agent pursuant to preceding clauses (a) or (b),
except as otherwise required by Law, the Borrower will not, and will use its best efforts to cause
each provider (other than the Borrower or its Subsidiaries) of TT&C Services for any Satellite that
has not been decommissioned or otherwise suffered an actual or constructive total loss to agree not
to, change any access codes, command codes or command encryption necessary to establish access to
and perform tracking, telemetry, control and monitoring of each Satellite, without promptly
furnishing to the Administrative Agent the new access codes, command codes and command encryption
necessary to establish access to and perform TT&C Services for such Satellite.

(viii) an event has occurred or a condition exists that has resulted or could result in a payment

respect of a Foreign Pension Plan; and which, with respect to all the events and obligations
described in the preceding clauses (i) through (viii) of this Section

assets and properties which, individually and in the aggregate, are not material to the Group
Companies taken as a whole or in respect of which the failure of the security interests in respect
thereof to be valid, perfected first priority security interests could not, individually or in the
aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

          (k) Ownership. A Change of Control shall occur.

          Section 8.02 Acceleration; Delivery of Preferred Stock Election Notice; Remedies. Upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default, the Required Lenders may (i) waive such Event of Default in
writing (unless such Event of Default must be waived by each Lender or each Lender affected thereby
as required pursuant to Section 10.01), or (ii) require the Administrative Agent (or require the
Administrative Agent to require the Collateral Agent, as applicable) to, by written notice to the
Borrower, take any of the following actions without prejudice to the rights of the Agents or any
Lender to enforce its claims against the Loan Parties except as otherwise specifically provided for
herein:

          (a) Acceleration of the Loan. Declare the unpaid principal of, any accrued interest
in respect of, or prepayment premium as provided in Section 2.06(c) in respect of, the Loan, and
any and all other indebtedness or obligations of any and every kind owing by a Loan Party to any of
the Lenders hereunder to be due whereupon the same shall be immediately due and payable without
presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the
Loan Parties.

          (b) Enforcement of Rights. Enforce any and all rights and interests created and
existing under the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, all rights and remedies existing
under the Collateral Documents, all rights and remedies against a Guarantor and all rights of
set-off.

          In addition, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Required Lenders may deliver the
Preferred Stock Election Notice to the Borrower, notifying the Borrower that the Lenders have
exercised their right to trigger the provisions under the Parent Certificate of Designation that
apply from and after the Trigger Date (as defined in the Parent Certificate of Designation).

          Notwithstanding the fact that enforcement powers reside primarily with the Administrative
Agent, each Lender has, to the extent permitted by Law, a separate right of payment and shall be
considered a separate “creditor” holding a separate “claim” within the meaning of Section 101(5) of
the Bankruptcy Code or any other insolvency statute.

          In case any one or more of the covenants and/or agreements set forth in this Agreement or any
other Loan Document shall have been breached by any Loan Party, then the Administrative Agent may
proceed to protect and enforce the Lenders’ rights either by suit in equity and/or by action at
Law, including an action for damages as a result of any such breach and/or an action for specific
performance of any such covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or such other Loan
Document. Without limitation of

- 71 -

 

the foregoing, the Borrower agrees that failure to comply with any
of the covenants contained herein will cause irreparable harm and that specific performance shall
be available in the event of any breach thereof. The Administrative Agent acting pursuant to this
paragraph shall be indemnified in accordance with Section 10.04.

          Notwithstanding anything in any Loan Document to the contrary, in the event that any Event of
Default under Sections 8.01(a) through (e) or (g) through (k) of the Credit Agreement (but not
following the occurrence of any other Event of Default) shall have occurred and so long as the
Senior Notes are outstanding and are not then due and payable, the Administrative Agent shall not
(and the Administrative Agent shall not direct the Collateral Agent to), and each Lender shall not
(and each Lender shall not direct the Collateral Agent to) take any action hereunder that would result in the occurrence of an
“Event of Default” (as that term is defined in the Senior Secured Note Indenture) pursuant to any
of Sections 6.01(e), (f) (as to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries only) or (g) of the Senior
Secured Note Indenture, except that in any event the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and
the Lenders may take possession of the Equity Interests of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries
in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents.

          (c) Control. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, prior to the occurrence
of an Event of Default, this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby do not and will not
constitute, create, or have the effect of constituting or creating, directly or indirectly, actual
or practical ownership of any Group Company by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or
any Lender, or affirmative or negative, direct or indirect control by the Administrative Agent, the
Collateral Agent or any Lender over the management or any other aspect of the operation of the
Group Company, which ownership and control remains exclusively and at all times in those Group
Company.

          Section 8.03 Payments on and Redemptions of Parent Preferred Stock. Following delivery of
the Preferred Stock Election Notice to the Borrower, all payments received by the Lenders or by any
Agent with respect to, or redemptions of, the Parent Preferred Stock shall be deemed payments of
(i) principal on the Loans, to the extent of the Base Liquidation Preference of Parent Preferred
Stock redeemed, (ii) interest on the Loans, to the extent of payments of dividends on Parent
Preferred Stock (including any portion of Liquidation Preference of Parent Preferred Stock redeemed
attributable to the accrual of dividends) paid in cash to the extent that such amount exceeds the
amount of interest hereunder attributable to an amount of principal equal to the Base Liquidation
Preference of the Parent Preferred Stock to which such dividend payment relates, and (iii)
prepayment premium, if any, that would be payable pursuant to Section 2.06(c) with respect to the
prepayment of principal on the Loans hereunder in an amount equal to the Base Liquidation
Preference, to the extent of the amount of Premium (as defined in the Parent Certificate of
Designations) included in the Liquidation Preference of Parent Preferred Stock redeemed or to the
extent that the cash redemption price of Parent Preferred Stock redeemed exceeds 100% of the
Liquidation Preference thereof (but excluding any such amounts that exceed the prepayment premium
that would be so payable hereunder). “Base Liquidation Preference” of any Parent Preferred
Stock means the Liquidation Preference of such Parent Preferred Stock without giving effect to (x)
the accrual of any dividends on such Parent Preferred Stock, or (y) the provisions of the Parent
Certificate of Designation providing for redemption of such Parent Preferred Stock at a cash
redemption price in excess of 100% of the Liquidation Preference thereof or the addition of Premium
to the Liquidation Preference.

          Section 8.04 Allocation of Payments After Event of Default.

          (a) Priority of Distributions. The Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to
direct the application of any and all payments in respect of its Finance Obligations and any
proceeds of Collateral after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and
agrees, and each of the Finance Parties agrees, that, notwithstanding the provisions of
Sections 2.09(b), after the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 8.02 (or
after the Loan has automatically become immediately due and payable), all

- 72 -

 

amounts collected or received by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Finance Party on account of
any Finance Obligation shall be paid over or delivered in respect of its Finance Obligations as
follows:

          FIRST, to pay interest on and then principal of any portion of the Loan that the
Administrative Agent may have advanced on behalf of any Lender for which the Administrative
Agent has not then been reimbursed by such Lender or the Borrower;

          SECOND, to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including
reasonable attorneys’ fees) of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent in
connection with enforcing the rights of the Finance Parties under the Finance Documents,
including all expenses of sale or other realization of or in respect of the Collateral,
including reasonable compensation to the agents and counsel for the Collateral Agent, and
all expenses, liabilities and advances incurred or made by the Collateral Agent in
connection therewith, and any other obligations owing to the Collateral Agent under the Loan
Documents, including in respect of sums advanced by the Collateral Agent to preserve the
Collateral or to preserve its security interest in the Collateral;

          THIRD, to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including
reasonable attorneys’ fees) of (i) each of the Lenders in connection with enforcing its
rights under the Loan Documents or otherwise with respect to the Senior Credit Obligations
owing to such Lender and (ii) each Swap Creditor in connection with enforcing any of its
rights under the Swap Agreements or otherwise with respect to the Swap Obligations owing to
such Swap Creditor;

          FOURTH, to the payment of all of the Senior Credit Obligations consisting of accrued
fees and interest;

          FIFTH, except as set forth in clauses FIRST through FOURTH above, to
the payment of the outstanding Senior Credit Obligations and Swap Obligations owing to any
Finance Party, Pro-Rata, as set forth below, with (i) an amount equal to the Senior Credit
Obligations being paid to the Collateral Agent (in the case of Senior Credit Obligations
owing to the Collateral Agent) or to the Administrative Agent (in the case of all other
Senior Credit Obligations) for the account of the Lenders or any Agent, with the Collateral
Agent, each Lender and the Agents receiving an amount equal to its outstanding Senior Credit
Obligations, or, if the proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all Senior Credit
Obligations, its Pro-Rata Share of the amount remaining to be distributed, and (ii) an
amount equal to the Swap Obligations being paid to the trustee, paying agent or other
similar representative (each a “Representative”) for the Swap Creditors, with each
Swap Creditor receiving an amount equal to the outstanding Swap Obligations owed to it by
the Loan Parties or, if the proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all such Swap
Obligations, its Pro-Rata Share of the amount remaining to be distributed;

          SIXTH, to the payment of the surplus, if any, to whomever may be lawfully entitled to
receive such surplus.

          In carrying out the foregoing, (i) amounts received shall be applied in the numerical order
provided until exhausted prior to application to the next succeeding category; and (ii) each of the
Finance Parties shall receive an amount equal to its Pro-Rata Share of amounts available to be
applied pursuant to clauses “THIRD”, “FOURTH” and “FIFTH” above.

          (b) Pro-Rata Treatment. For purposes of this Section 8.04, “Pro-Rata
Share” means, when calculating a Finance Party’s portion of any distribution or amount, that
amount (expressed as a percentage) equal to a fraction the numerator of which is the then unpaid
amount of such Finance Party’s

- 73 -

 

Senior Credit Obligations or Swap Obligations, as the case may be,
and the denominator of which is the then outstanding amount of all Senior Credit Obligations or
Swap Obligations, as the case may be. When payments to the Finance Parties are based upon their
respective Pro-Rata Shares, the amounts received by such Finance Parties hereunder shall be applied
(for purposes of making determinations under this Section 8.04 only) (i) first, to their
Senior Credit Obligations and (ii) second, to their Swap Obligations. If any payment to any
Finance Party of its Pro-Rata Share of any distribution would result in overpayment to such Finance
Party, such excess amount shall instead be distributed in respect of the unpaid Senior Credit
Obligations or Swap Obligations, as the case may be, of the other Finance Parties, with each
Finance Party whose Senior Credit Obligations or Swap Obligations, as the case may be, have not been paid in
full to receive an amount equal to such excess amount multiplied by a fraction the numerator of
which is the unpaid Senior Credit Obligations, Swap Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the
case may be, of such Finance Party and the denominator of which is the unpaid Senior Credit
Obligations or Swap Obligations, as the case may be, of all Finance Parties entitled to such
distribution.

          (c) Reliance by Collateral Agent. For purposes of applying payments received in
accordance with this Section 8.04, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon (i)
the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement and (ii) the Representative, if any, for the
Swap Creditors for a determination (which the Administrative Agent, each Representative for any
Swap Creditor and the Finance Parties agree (or shall agree) to provide upon request of the
Collateral Agent) of the outstanding Senior Credit Obligations and Swap Obligations owed to the
Agents, the Lenders or the Swap Creditors, as the case may be. Unless it has actual knowledge
(including by way of written notice from a Swap Creditor or any Representatives thereof) to the
contrary, the Collateral Agent, in acting hereunder, shall be entitled to assume that no Swap
Agreements are in existence.

ARTICLE IX

Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other

- 74 -

Default has occurred and is continuing;

          (ii) shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary
powers, except, in the case of the Administrative Agent, discretionary rights and powers
expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent
is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number
or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan
Documents), provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent
shall be required to take any action that, in the opinion of its counsel, may expose it to
liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law; and

          (iii) shall, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have

relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the
Person serving as the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent or any of its Affiliates
in any capacity.

          Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be liable for any action taken
or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other
number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall
believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections
10.01 and 8.02), or, in the case of the Collateral Agent, as shall be directed or
requested by the Administrative Agent, or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or
willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall be deemed not to have
knowledge of any Default (or, in the case of the Collateral Agent, any other fact, event or
circumstance) unless and until notice in writing describing such Default is given to the
Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent in accordance with this Agreement by the Borrower or a
Lender.

          Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be responsible for or have any
duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any recital contained in, or any statement, warranty or
representation made in or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the
contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in
connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants,
agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any
Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any
other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any
condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than, in the case of the
Administrative Agent, to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the
Administrative Agent.

          Section 9.04 Reliance by Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent. The Administrative
Agent and the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability
for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or
other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other
distribution) reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise
authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent also may
rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and reasonably believed by it to have
been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In
determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, that by its terms must
be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such
condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice
to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. The Administrative

- 75 -

 

Agent and the Collateral Agent may each consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the
Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for
any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants
or experts.

          Section 9.05 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may
each perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any
other Loan Document by or through any one or more agents, co-agents, or sub-agents appointed by the
Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, as applicable. Each of the Administrative Agent and
the Collateral Agent and any such agent, co-agent, or sub-agent of either may perform any and all
of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties.
The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such agent, co-agent or sub-agent and
to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent and any such agent,
co-agent or sub-agent, and, in the case of the Administrative Agent, shall apply to their
respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for
herein, and shall also apply to the other respective activities of the Administrative Agent or
Collateral Agent.

          Section 9.06 Resignation of Agents. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral
Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower effective
after the earlier of (x) 30 days from the Borrower’s receipt of such notice and (y) the appointment
of a successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent. Upon receipt of any such notice of
resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to
appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of
any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so
appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the
retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the
retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent may on behalf of the Lenders appoint a successor
Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that
if the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall notify the Borrower and the
Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall
nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Administrative
Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall be discharged from its duties and obligations
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (2) all payments, communications and
determinations provided to be made by, to or though the Administrative Agent or the Collateral
Agent, as applicable, shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as the
Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, as
provided for above in this paragraph. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as
Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become
vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired)
Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent
shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees
payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall be the same
as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such
successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s or Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder
and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.04 shall
continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, its
agents, co-agents and sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions
taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral
Agent was acting as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent.

          Section 9.07 Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it
has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any
other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has
deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each
Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative
Agent, the Collateral

- 76 -

 

Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and
information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in
taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any
related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

          Section 9.08 Agents May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership,
insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other
judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent
(irrespective of whether the principal of the Loan shall then be due and payable as herein
expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent or
Collateral Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by
intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

          (i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing
and unpaid in respect of the Loan and all other Finance Obligations that are owing and
unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have
the claims of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent (including any
claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders,
the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent and their respective agents and counsel
and all other amounts due the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent
under Sections 2.09 and 10.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding;

          (ii) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any
such claims and to distribute the same; and

          (iii) any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other
similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make
such payments to the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent and, in the event that the
Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall consent to the making of such
payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral
Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances
of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent and their respective agents and
counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent under
Sections 2.09 and 10.04 and under the other Loan Documents to which it is a
party.

          Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent or the
Collateral Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Finance Obligations or the
rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent to vote in
respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

          Section 9.09 Collateral and Guaranty Matters. The Lenders irrevocably authorize the
Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion:

          (i) to release (and to direct the Collateral Agent to release) any Lien on any property
granted to or held by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent under any Finance
Document (A) upon termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all Finance
Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations), (B) that is sold or to be
sold as part of or in connection with any sale not prohibited hereunder, or (C) subject to
Section 10.01, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required
Lenders;

- 77 -

 

          (ii) to subordinate (and to direct the Collateral Agent to subordinate) any Lien on any
property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent under any
Finance Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section
7.02; and

          (iii) to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty if such Person
ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction not prohibited hereunder.

Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing
the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate (or to direct the Collateral Agent
to release or subordinate) the interest of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent in
particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the
Guaranty pursuant to this Section 9.09.

          Section 9.10 Related Obligations. The benefit of the Loan Documents and of the provisions
of this Agreement relating to the Collateral shall extend to and be available in respect of any
Cash Management Obligations and to any Swap Obligations permitted hereunder from time to time owing
to one or more Swap Creditors (collectively, “Related Obligations”) solely on the condition
and understanding, as among the Collateral Agent and all Finance Parties, that (i) the Related
Obligations shall be entitled to the benefit of the Loan Documents and the Collateral to the extent
expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to such extent the
Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall hold, and have the right and power to act with
respect to, the Guaranty and the Collateral on behalf of and as agent for the holders of the
Related Obligations, but the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent are otherwise acting
solely as agent for the Lenders and shall have no fiduciary duty, duty of loyalty, duty of care,
duty of disclosure or other obligation whatsoever to any holder of Related Obligations, (ii) all
matters, acts and omissions relating in any manner to the Guaranty, the Collateral, or the
omission, creation, perfection, priority, abandonment or release of any Lien, shall be governed
solely by the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and no separate Lien,
right, power or remedy shall arise or exist in favor of any Finance Party under any separate
instrument or agreement or in respect of any Related Obligation, (iii) each Finance Party shall be
bound by all actions taken or omitted, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents, by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Required Lenders,
as applicable, each of whom shall be entitled to act at its sole discretion and exclusively in its
own interest given its own Commitments and its own interest in the Loans and other Senior Credit
Obligations to it arising under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, without any duty or
liability to any Swap Creditor or holder of Cash Management Obligations or as to any Related
Obligation and without regard to whether any Related Obligation remains outstanding or is deprived
of the benefit of the Collateral or becomes unsecured or is otherwise affected or put in jeopardy
thereby, (iv) no holder of Related Obligations and no other Finance Party (except the Lenders to
the extent set forth in this Agreement) shall have any right to be notified of, or to direct,
require or be heard with respect to, any action taken or omitted in respect of the Collateral or
under this Agreement or the Loan Documents and (v) no holder of any Related Obligation shall
exercise any right of setoff, banker’s lien or similar right except to the extent provided in
Section 10.08.

          Section 9.11 Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent shall have all of the rights,
benefits, privileges and immunities granted to the Collateral Agent under any of the Loan Documents
to which it is a party, all of which are incorporated herein mutatis mutandis.

          Section 9.12 Appointment of Co-Collateral Agent.

          (a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, at any time, for the purpose of
meeting any legal requirement of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Collateral may at the
time be located, the Collateral Agent shall have the power and may execute and deliver all
instruments necessary to appoint one or more Persons to act as a co-collateral agent or separate
collateral agent or separate collateral agents, of all or any part of the Collateral, and to vest
in such Person or Persons, in such

- 78 -

 

capacity and for the benefit of the Secured Parties, such title to the Collateral, or any part
hereof, and subject to the other provisions of this Section, such powers, duties, obligations, and
rights as the Collateral Agent may consider necessary or desirable. No co-collateral agent or
separate collateral agent hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a
successor Collateral Agent under Section 9.6 and no notice to the Secured Parties of the
appointment of any co-collateral agent or separate collateral agent shall be required under Section
9.6.

          (b) Every separate collateral agent and co-collateral agent shall, to the extent permitted by
law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions:

          (i) all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Collateral
Agent shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Collateral Agent
and such separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent jointly (it being understood that
such separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent is not authorized to act separately
without the Collateral Agent joining in such act), except to the extent that under any law
of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed the Collateral
Agent shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such
rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the Collateral or
any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by
such separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent, but solely at the direction of the
Collateral Agent;

          (ii) no collateral agent shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of

          any other collateral agent under the Loan Documents; and

          (iii) the Collateral Agent may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any
separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent.

          (c) Any notice, request or other writing given to the Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have
been given to each of the then separate collateral agents and co-collateral agents, as effectively
as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate collateral agent or
co-collateral agent shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article IX. Each
separate collateral agent and co-collateral agent, upon its acceptance of the obligations
conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment,
either jointly with the Collateral Agent or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all
the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating
to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection or rights (including the
rights to compensation, reimbursement and indemnification hereunder) to, the Collateral Agent.
Every such instrument shall be filed with the Collateral Agent.

          (d) Any separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent may at any time constitute the
Collateral Agent its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not
prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in
its name. If any separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent shall die, become incapable of
acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and obligations
shall vest in and be exercised by the Collateral Agent, to the extent permitted by law, without the
appointment of a new or successor collateral agent.

          Section 9.13 No Other Duties, etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Lead Arranger and Bookrunner listed on the cover page hereof shall not have any powers, duties or
responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity,
as applicable, as the Administrative Agent or a Lender hereunder.

provided, that, in the case of the Collateral Agent, receipt thereof is confirmed by the

to the extent provided in subsection (b) below, shall be effective as provided in such

hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet
or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent, provided
that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender pursuant to Article II if such
Lender has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such
Article by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the
Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder

Collateral Agent, upon notices purportedly given by the Administrative Agent) even if (i) such
notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or
followed by any other form of notice specified herein or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by
the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Borrower shall indemnify the

from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each
notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower. All telephonic notices to and other
communications with the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent may be recorded by the

such recording.

          Section 10.03 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by any Lender or by the
Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in
exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor

any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or
privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not
exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by Law.

          Section 10.04 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

          (a) Costs and Expenses. Holdings and the Borrower jointly and severally agrees to pay
(i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral
Agent and the Lenders and their respective Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and
disbursements of counsel for each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent and
Lenders), in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the
preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof
(whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated) and (ii) all
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender
(including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent, the
Collateral Agent or any Lender in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights (A)
in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this
Section, or (B) in connection with the Loans made hereunder).

          (b) Indemnification. Holdings and the Borrower, jointly and severally, shall
indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent (and any agent, co-agent or sub-agent
thereof), each Lender and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person
being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all
losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the fees, charges and
disbursements of any outside counsel for any Indemnitee), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted
against any Indemnitee by any third party or by the Borrower or any other Loan Party arising out
of, in connection with, or as a result of any claim, proceeding or litigation arising out of or
relating to (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Finance Document or any
agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of
their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder, the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby or, in the case of the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent
thereof) and its Related Parties only, the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, (ii) the Loan or use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or
alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by
Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in

- 82 -

 

any way to Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim,
litigation, investigation or proceeding brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any other
Loan Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, in all cases, whether or
not caused by or arising, in whole or in part, out of the comparative, contributory or sole
negligence of the Indemnitee; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee,
be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x)
are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have
resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

          (c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that Holdings and the Borrower for any
reason fail indefeasibly to pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of
this Section to be paid by it or them to each Agent (or any agent, co-agent or sub-agent thereof)
or any Related Party of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to each Agent (or any
such agent, co-agent or sub-agent) or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s
Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or
indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense
or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred
by or asserted against each Agent (or any such agent, co-agent or sub-agent) in its capacity as
such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for each Agent (or any such
agent, co-agent or sub-agent) in connection with such capacity.

          (d) Waiver of Consequential Damages. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable
Law, no Loan Party shall assert, and each of them hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee,
on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to
direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement,
any other Finance Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby, the Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee shall
be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other
materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information
transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

          (e) Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than
thirty days after receipt by Borrower of a reasonably detailed invoice therefor.

          (f) Survival. The agreements in this Section shall survive the resignation or
replacement of the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, the replacement of any Lender and the
repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Senior Credit Obligations.

          Section 10.05 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the
Borrower or any other Loan Party is made to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any
Lender, or the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender exercises its right of
set-off, and such payment or the proceeds of such set-off or any part thereof is subsequently
invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant
to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Lender in
its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any
proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (i) to the extent of such recovery, the
obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in
full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such set-off had not occurred, and
(ii) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as
applicable, upon demand, its applicable share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the
Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, plus interest thereon from the date of
such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate
from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under clause (ii) of the
preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Senior Credit Obligations and the
termination of this Agreement.

          Section 10.06 Successors and Assigns.

          (a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns permitted hereby, except that neither the Borrower nor any other Loan Party may assign or
otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder (except pursuant to a transaction
permitted hereunder) without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the
Collateral Agent and each Lender, and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights
or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of
subsection (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the
provisions of subsection (d) of this Section, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a
security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (f) of this Section (and any
other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in
this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the
parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the
extent provided in subsection (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated
hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent and the
Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

          (b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible
Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a
portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided,
however, that:

          (i) except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the Lender’s
Loan or Commitments owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate
of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender, the aggregate amount of the Loans
of an assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the
Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative
Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade
Date, shall not be less than $1,000,000 and shall be an integral multiple of $500,000 unless
each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, the Borrower consent (such consent, in any such case, not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed); provided, however, that concurrent assignments to
members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to
a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group)
will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum
amount has been met;

          (ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of
all the assigning Lenders’ rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the
Loan;

          (iii) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative
Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500
(it being understood that such fee may be reduced or eliminated in the Administrative
Agent’s sole discretion) and the Eligible Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall
deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire and appropriate tax
forms.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection
(c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and
Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent
of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a
Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the
interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this
Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s
rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto

- 84 -

 

but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04,
3.05 and 10.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the
effective date of such assignment). Upon request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and
deliver a Note or Notes to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights
or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for
purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and
obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section.

          (c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of
the Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and
Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the
Lenders, and principal amounts of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from
time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be presumptively correct,
absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the
Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof
as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.
The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower at any reasonable time and from time
to time upon reasonable prior notice.

          (d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to,
the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural
person) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or
obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of the Loans owing to it);
provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged,
(ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of
such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the
Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.

          Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall
provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any
amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such
agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the
Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in clause (z)
of the first proviso to Section 10.01 that affects such Participant. Subject to
subsection (e) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled
to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 to the same extent as if it
were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of
this Section. To the extent permitted by Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the
benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender.

          (e) Limitation Upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to
receive any greater payment under Section 3.01 or 3.04 than the applicable Lender
would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant,
unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written
consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to
the benefits of Section 3.01 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to
such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with
Section 3.01(e) as though it were a Lender.

          (f) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest
in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to
secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a
Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender
from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as
a party hereto.

          (g) Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,”
“signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include
electronic signatures or

- 85 -

 

the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect,
validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based record
keeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable Law,
including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State
Electronic Signatures and Records Act or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform
Electronic Transactions Act.

          Section 10.07 Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Each of the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality
of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (i) to its
Affiliates and to it and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees,
agents, advisors and representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure
is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such
Information confidential); (ii) to the extent requested by a regulatory authority purporting to
have jurisdiction over it, including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National
Association of Insurance Commissioners; (iii) to the extent required by applicable Law or by any
subpoena or similar legal process; (iv) to any other party hereto; (v) in connection with the
exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding
relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or
thereunder, (vi) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of
this Section, to (A) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or
Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (B) any actual or
prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the
Borrower and its obligations, (vii) with the consent of the Borrower or (viii) to the extent such
Information (A) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or
(B) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender on a
nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower.

          For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries relating to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of their
respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative
Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the
Borrower or any Subsidiary. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as
provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such
Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as
such Person would accord to its own confidential information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any
Agent and any Lender may place advertisements in financial and other newspapers and periodicals or
on a home page or similar place for dissemination of information on the Internet or worldwide web
as it may choose, and circulate similar promotional materials, after the closing of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement in the form of a “tombstone” or otherwise describing
the names of the Loan Parties, or any of them, and the amount, type and closing date of such
transactions, all at their sole expense.

          Section 10.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, each Lender and each of their
respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or
demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency, but excluding trust, payroll and fiduciary
accounts) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Lender or any such Affiliate of any of them to
or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any other Loan Party against any and all of the
obligations of the Borrower or such Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or
any other Loan Document to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Lender,
irrespective of whether or not the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Lender shall
have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations
of the Borrower or such Loan Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office
of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Lender different from the branch or
office holding such

- 86 -

 

deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral
Agent and each Lender and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other
rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that the Administrative Agent, the
Collateral Agent or such Lender or their respective Affiliates may have. The Administrative Agent,
the Collateral Agent and each Lender agrees to notify the Borrower (and in the case of the
Collateral Agent or a Lender, the Administrative Agent) promptly after any such setoff and
application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of
such setoff and application.

          Section 10.09 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not
exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum
Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that
exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans then
to premium or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal or premium, refunded to the Borrower. In
determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent
or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law,
(i) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than
interest, (ii) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof and (iii) amortize, prorate,
allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the
contemplated term of the Senior Credit Obligations hereunder.

          Section 10.10 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in
counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall
constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.
This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties
relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and
understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall
become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent
and the Borrower and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that,
when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an
executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as
delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

          Section 10.11 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and
warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant
hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery
hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by
any Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Agent or any Lender may
have had notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default, and shall continue in full force
and effect as long as any Loan or any other Senior Credit Obligation shall remain unpaid or
unsatisfied.

          Section 10.12 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents
is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (i) the legality, validity and enforceability of
the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or
impaired thereby and (ii) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the
illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which
comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The
invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable
such provision in any other jurisdiction.

          Section 10.13 Governing Law; Jurisdiction Etc.

          (a) Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (OTHER THAN AS
EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN SUCH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS) AND THE

SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE
OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE SOUTHERN
DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING

CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER
MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY
RIGHT THAT EACH PARTY HERETO MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS
AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST EACH PARTY HERETO OR ANY OTHER PARTY OR ITS
PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.

          (c) Waiver of Venue. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE
FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE
LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY
OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN PARAGRAPH (b) OF THIS SECTION. EACH OF THE PARTIES
HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEFENSE OF
AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT.

          (d) Service of Process. EACH PARTY HERETO (OTHER THAN THE COLLATERAL AGENT)
IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION
10.02. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN

PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY
OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY
OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE
EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE
OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER

GUARANTY

I. RECITALS

          Reference is made to that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as it may be
amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit
Agreement”), by and among ORBIMAGE SI Holdco Inc., a Delaware corporation, ORBIMAGE SI Opco
Inc., a Delaware corporation, each guarantor from time to time party thereto, each lender from time
to time party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders” and individually, a “Lender”),
Credit Suisse, Cayman Islands Branch, as Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Agent”)
and The Bank of New York, as the Collateral Agent (the “Collateral Agent”). As one of the
conditions to making Loans to Borrower under the Credit Agreement, the Lenders have required that
the undersigned (“Guarantor”), guaranty the obligations of Borrower to Administrative
Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined
herein shall have the respective meanings provided for in the Credit Agreement.

II. GUARANTY

          Therefore, for value received, and in consideration of any loan, advance or financial
accommodation of any kind whatsoever heretofore, now or hereafter made, given or granted to
Borrower by Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender, Guarantor hereby
unconditionally guaranties the full and prompt payment when due, whether at maturity or earlier, by
reason of acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of all of the Secured Credit
Obligations. Without limiting the foregoing, the Secured Credit Obligations guaranteed hereby
include all fees, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender in attempting to collect any amount due
under this Guaranty or in prosecuting any action against Borrower, Guarantor or any other guarantor
of all or part of the Secured Credit Obligations and all interest, fees, reasonable out-of-pocket
costs and expenses owing to Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender after the
commencement of bankruptcy proceedings with respect to Borrower, Guarantor or any other guarantor
of all or part of the Secured Credit Obligations (whether or not the same may be collected while
such proceedings are pending).

          Guarantor hereby agrees that this Guaranty is a present and continuing guaranty of payment and
not of collection and that its obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of (i)
the validity or enforceability of the Secured Credit Obligations or any part thereof, or of any of
the Financing Documents, (ii) the waiver or consent by Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent
or any Lender with respect to any provision of any Financing Document, or any amendment,
modification or other change with respect to any Financing Document, (iii) any merger or
consolidation of Borrower, Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or part of the Secured Credit
Obligations into or with any Person or any change in the ownership of the equity of Borrower,
Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or part of the Secured Credit Obligations, (iv) any
dissolution of Guarantor or any insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization or similar
proceedings with respect to Borrower, Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or part of the
Secured Credit Obligations, (v) any action or inaction on the part of Administrative Agent, the
Collateral Agent or any Lender, including without limitation the absence of any attempt to collect
the Secured Credit Obligations from Borrower, Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or part of
the Secured Credit Obligations or other action to enforce the same or the failure by
Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent to take any steps to perfect and maintain its Lien on,
or to preserve its rights to, any security or collateral for the Secured Credit Obligations, (vi)
Administrative Agent’s election, in any proceeding instituted under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the
United States Code (11 U.S.C. Section 101 et seq.), as amended (the “Bankruptcy Code”) of the
application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, (vii) any borrowing or grant of a Lien by
Borrower, Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or part of the Secured Credit Obligations, as
debtor-in-possession, under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code, (viii) the disallowance, under
Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, of all or any portion of Administrative Agent’s, the
Collateral Agent’s or any Lender’s claims for repayment of the Secured Credit Obligations, (ix)
Administrative Agent’s, Collateral Agent’s or any Lender’s inability to enforce the Secured Credit
Obligations of Borrower as a result of the automatic stay provisions under Section 362 of the
Bankruptcy Code, (x) the discharge or release by Administrative Agent,

 

 

Collateral Agent and/or
Lenders of Guarantor’s obligations and liabilities under this Guaranty or (xi) any other
circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of
Borrower, Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or part of the Secured Credit Obligations.

          Notwithstanding any provision of this Guaranty to the contrary, it is intended that this
Guaranty, and any Liens granted by Guarantor to secure the obligations and liabilities arising
pursuant to this Guaranty, not constitute a “Fraudulent Conveyance” (as defined below).
Consequently, Guarantor agrees that if this Guaranty, or any Liens securing the obligations and
liabilities arising pursuant to this Guaranty, would, but for the application of this sentence,
constitute a Fraudulent Conveyance, this Guaranty and each such Lien shall be valid and enforceable
only to the maximum extent that would not cause this Guaranty or such Lien to constitute a
Fraudulent Conveyance, and this Guaranty shall automatically be deemed to have been amended
accordingly at all relevant times. For purposes hereof, “Fraudulent Conveyance” means a fraudulent
conveyance or fraudulent transfer under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or a fraudulent
conveyance or fraudulent transfer under the provisions of any applicable fraudulent conveyance or
fraudulent transfer law or similar law of any state, nation or other governmental unit, as in
effect from time to time.

          No payment made by or for the account or benefit of Guarantor (including, without limitation,
(i) a payment made by Borrower in respect of the Secured Credit Obligations, (ii) a payment made by
any Person under any other guaranty of the Secured Credit Obligations or (iii) a payment made by
means of set-off or other application of funds by Administrative Agent or any Lender) pursuant to
this Guaranty shall entitle Guarantor, by subrogation or otherwise, to any payment by Borrower or
from or out of any property of Borrower, and Guarantor shall not exercise any right or remedy
against Borrower or any property of Borrower including, without limitation, any right of
contribution or reimbursement by reason of any performance by any Person under this Guaranty, until
the Secured Credit Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full and the Credit Agreement has
been terminated.

          Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a
court in the event of any bankruptcy proceeding (or other insolvency proceeding) of Borrower,
protest or notice with respect to the Secured Credit Obligations and all demands whatsoever, and
covenants that this Guaranty will not be discharged, except by complete and irrevocable payment and
performance of the obligations and liabilities (other than contingent liabilities) contained
herein. No notice to Guarantor or any other party shall be required for Administrative Agent, on
behalf of Administrative Agent or any Lender, to make demand hereunder. Such demand shall
constitute a mature and liquidated claim against Guarantor. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Event of Default, Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent may, at its sole
election, proceed directly and at once, without notice, against Guarantor to collect and recover
the full amount or any portion of the Secured Credit Obligations, without first proceeding against
Borrower, any other Person or any security or collateral for the Secured Credit Obligations.
Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall have the exclusive right to determine the
application of payments and credits, if any, from Guarantor, Borrower, any other Person, or any
security or collateral for the Secured Credit Obligations, on account of the Secured Credit
Obligations or of any other liability of Guarantor to Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and
Lenders arising hereunder.

          Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and Lenders are hereby authorized, without notice or
demand to Guarantor and without affecting or impairing the liability of Guarantor hereunder, to,
from time to time, (i) renew, extend, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment of, or
other terms relating to, the Secured Credit Obligations or otherwise modify, amend or change the
terms of any Financing Document, (ii) accept partial payments on the Secured Credit Obligations,
(iii) take and hold collateral for the payment of the Secured Credit Obligations, or for the
payment of this Guaranty, or for the payment of any other guaranties of the Secured Credit
Obligations or other liabilities of Borrower, and exchange, enforce, waive and release any such
collateral, (iv) apply such collateral and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as in
their sole discretion they may determine and (v) settle, release, compromise, collect or otherwise
liquidate the Secured Credit Obligations and any collateral therefor in any manner.

-2-

 

          At any time after maturity of the Secured Credit Obligations, Administrative Agent, Collateral
Agent and Lenders may, in their sole discretion, with reasonable prompt subsequent notice to
Guarantor and regardless of the acceptance of any collateral for the payment hereof, appropriate
and apply toward payment of the Secured Credit Obligations (i) any indebtedness due or to become
due from Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or any Lender to Guarantor and (ii) any moneys,
credits or other property belonging to Guarantor at any time held by or coming into the possession
of Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or any Lender or any Affiliates thereof, whether for
deposit or otherwise; except that no Lender shall exercise any such right without the prior written
consent of Administrative Agent.

          Guarantor hereby assumes responsibility for keeping itself informed of the financial condition
of Borrower, and any and all endorsers and other guarantors of all or any part of the Secured
Credit Obligations and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the
Secured Credit Obligations or any part thereof that diligent inquiry would reveal, and Guarantor
hereby agrees that neither Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent nor any Lender shall have any
duty to advise Guarantor of information known to such Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or
Lender regarding such condition or any such circumstances. Guarantor hereby acknowledges
familiarity with Borrower’s financial condition and that it has not relied on any statements by
Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or any Lender in obtaining such information. In the event
Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or any Lender, in its sole discretion, undertakes at any
time or from time to time to provide any such information to Guarantor, neither Administrative
Agent, Collateral Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation (i) to undertake any
investigation with respect thereto, (ii) to disclose any information which, pursuant to accepted or
reasonable commercial finance practices, Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or such Lender
wishes to maintain confidential or (iii) to make any other or future disclosures of such
information, or any other information, to Guarantor.

          Guarantor consents and agrees that neither Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent nor any
Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of Guarantor or against or in
payment of any or all of the Secured Credit Obligations. Guarantor further agrees that, to the
extent that Borrower makes a payment or payments to Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or any
Lender, or Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or any Lender receives any proceeds of
Collateral, which payment or payments or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to
be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to Borrower, its estate, trustee,
receiver or any other party, including without limitation Guarantor, under any bankruptcy law,
state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such payment or
repayment, the Secured Credit Obligations or the part thereof which has been paid, reduced or
satisfied by such amount shall be reinstated and continued in full force and effect as of the date
such initial payment, reduction or satisfaction occurred, and this Guaranty shall continue to be in
existence and in full force and effect, irrespective of whether any evidence of indebtedness has
been surrendered or cancelled.

          Guarantor also waives all set-offs and counterclaims and all presentments, demands for
performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, and
notices of acceptance of this Guaranty. Guarantor further waives all notices of the existence,
creation or incurring of new or additional indebtedness, arising either from additional loans
extended to Borrower or otherwise, and also waives all notices that the principal amount, or any
portion thereof, or any interest under or on any Financing Document is due, notices of any and all
proceedings to collect from the maker, any endorser or any other guarantor of all or any part of
the Secured Credit Obligations, or from anyone else, and, to the extent permitted by law, notices
of exchange, sale, surrender or other handling of any security or collateral given to
Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent to secure payment of the Secured Credit Obligations.

III. MISCELLANEOUS

          Guarantor hereby represents and warrants to Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and Lenders
that (i) it is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
jurisdiction of its organization, (ii) the execution, delivery and performance by Guarantor of this
Guaranty and the other Financing

-3-

 

Documents to which it is a party are within its powers, have been
duly authorized by all necessary action pursuant to its Organizational Documents, require no
further action by or in respect of, or filing with, any governmental body, agency or official and
do not violate, conflict with or cause a breach or a default under (A) any provision of applicable
law or regulation, (B) any of its Organizational Documents or (C) any agreement, judgment,
injunction, order, decree or other instrument binding upon it except for such violations,
conflicts, breaches, or defaults as could not, with respect to clauses (A) and (C), reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (iii) this Guaranty, and each other Financing
Document to which it is a party, constitutes a valid and binding agreement or instrument of
Guarantor, enforceable against Guarantor in accordance with its respective terms, except as the
enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar laws relating to
the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles. In addition to
and without limitation of the foregoing, Guarantor hereby confirms that it has reviewed the
representations and warranties contained in Article V of the Credit Agreement and agrees that such
representations and warranties shall be deemed to have been made by Guarantor herein and shall be
fully incorporated in this Guaranty by reference thereto (provided, that Guarantor shall only be
deemed to have made such representations and warranties with respect to itself and its
Subsidiaries).

          No delay on the part of Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent in the exercise of any right
or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise by Administrative
Agent or Collateral Agent of any right or remedy shall preclude any further exercise thereof; nor
shall any modification or waiver of any of the provisions of this Guaranty be binding upon
Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or Lenders, except as expressly set forth in a writing duly
signed and delivered on Administrative Agent’s and Collateral Agent’s behalf by an authorized
officer or agent thereof. Administrative Agent’s, Collateral Agent’s or any Lender’s failure at
any time or times hereafter to require strict performance by Borrower or Guarantor of any of the
provisions, warranties, terms and conditions contained in this Guaranty shall not waive, affect or
diminish any right of Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and Lenders at any time or times
hereafter to demand strict performance thereof and such right shall not be deemed to have been
waived by any act or knowledge of Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or any Lender, or its
respective agents, officers or employees, unless such waiver is contained in an instrument in
writing signed by an officer or agent of Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable,
and directed to Borrower or Guarantor, as applicable, specifying such waiver. No failure or delay
by Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege
under this Guaranty shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise
thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or
privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any
rights or remedies provided by law. The obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty are secured
by, among other things, that certain Security Agreement of even date herewith among Guarantor,
Borrower, Collateral Agent and Administrative Agent.

          This Guaranty shall be binding upon Guarantor and their respective successors and assigns and
shall inure to the benefit of Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and Lenders and their
respective successors and assigns, except that Guarantor may not assign its obligations hereunder
without the written consent of Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent. All notices,
approvals, requests, demands and other communications hereunder shall be given in accordance with
the notice provision of the Credit Agreement; provided, that such notices shall be given to
Guarantor at its address or facsimile number set forth on the signature pages hereof.

          THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES. GUARANTOR HEREBY
CONSENTS TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT LOCATED WITHIN THE
CITY OF NEW YORK, STATE OF NEW YORK AND IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT, SUBJECT TO ADMINISTRATIVE OR
COLLATERAL AGENT’S ELECTION, ALL ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY
SHALL BE LITIGATED IN SUCH COURTS. GUARANTOR EXPRESSLY

SUBMITS AND CONSENTS TO THE JURISDICTION OF
THE AFORESAID COURTS AND WAIVES ANY DEFENSE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS. GUARANTOR HEREBY WAIVES

ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS
GUARANTY OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND AGREES THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING
SHALL BE TRIED BEFORE A COURT AND NOT BEFORE A JURY.

     3.2 Impositions. Except as otherwise permitted under the Credit Agreement,

the continuance of an Event of Default (as hereinafter defined), Beneficiary is hereby authorized
to make or advance, in the place and stead of Trustor, any payment relating to Impositions.
Beneficiary may do so according to any bill, statement, or estimate procured from the appropriate
public office without inquiry into the accuracy or the validity of any Impositions, lien, sale,
forfeiture, or related title or claim. Beneficiary is further authorized to make or advance, in
place of Trustor, unless such matter is being properly contested by Trustor in accordance with the
Credit Agreement, any payment relating to any apparent or threatened adverse title, lien, statement
of lien, encumbrance, claim, charge, or payment otherwise relating to any other purpose herein and
hereby authorized, but not enumerated in this Section 3.3, whenever, in Beneficiary’s judgment and
discretion, such advance is necessary to protect the full security intended to be created by this
Deed of Trust. All such advances and indebtedness authorized by this Section 3.3 shall constitute
Secured Indebtedness and shall be repayable by Trustor promptly upon demand.

     3.4 Intentionally Omitted .

     3.5 Intentionally Omitted.

     3.6 Intentionally Omitted.

     3.7  Prohibited Liens; Prohibited Transfers.

inferior to the lien created by this Deed of Trust.

     (b) Except as otherwise provided in the Credit Agreement, Trustor may not
sell, lease or convey all or any part of the Property or any interest therein.

     3.8 Assignment of Leases and Rents.

     (a) All right, title, and interest of Trustor in and to all Leases and Rents
are hereby transferred and assigned simultaneously herewith to Beneficiary. Although it is
the intention of the parties that the assignment contained in this paragraph shall be a
present assignment, it is expressly understood and agreed, anything to the contrary
notwithstanding, that Beneficiary shall not exercise any of the rights or powers conferred
upon it by this paragraph until an Event of Default shall exist and be continuing under this
Deed of Trust.

5

 

     (b) Following the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the
continuance thereof, (a) Beneficiary shall have the rights and powers as are provided
herein, (b) this Deed of Trust shall constitute a direction to each lessee under the Leases
and each guarantor thereof to pay all Rents directly to Beneficiary without proof of the
Event of Default, and (c) Beneficiary shall have the authority, as Trustor’s
attorney-in-fact (such authority being coupled with an interest and irrevocable), to sign
the name of Trustor and to bind Trustor on all papers and documents relating to the
operation, leasing and maintenance of the Property.

     3.9 Uniform Commercial Code.

     (a) This Deed of Trust constitutes a Security Agreement as that term is used
in the Uniform Commercial Code in the State (the “Code”) with respect to any part of
the Property which may or might now or hereafter be or be deemed to be personal property,
fixtures or property other than real estate (including all replacements thereof, additions
thereto and substitutions therefor) (collectively, the “Personal Property
Collateral”). All of Trustor’s right, title and interest in the Personal Property
Collateral is hereby assigned to Beneficiary to secure the payment of the Secured
Indebtedness.

     (b) At any time after an Event of Default has occurred and shall be
continuing, Beneficiary shall have the remedies of a secured party under the Code, including
without limitation, the right to take immediate and exclusive possession of the Personal
Property Collateral or any part thereof. The remedies of Beneficiary hereunder are
cumulative and the exercise of any one or more of the remedies provided for herein or under
the Code shall not be construed as a waiver of any of the other remedies of the Beneficiary,
including having the Personal Property Collateral deemed part of the realty upon any
foreclosure so long as any part of the Secured Indebtedness remains unsatisfied.

     (c) This Deed of Trust is intended to be a “fixture filing” for purposes of
the Code with respect to the items of Property which are or may become fixtures relating to
the Premises upon recording of this Deed of Trust in the real estate records of the proper
office. The addresses of Trustor (Debtor) and Beneficiary (Secured Party) are set forth in
Section 6.2 hereof.

     (d) Trustor shall record or cause to be recorded in the County in which the
Premises are located, as well as with the applicable offices of the State, such financing
statements and fixture filings and any and all continuation statements or other documents or
instruments as shall be necessary in order to perfect and preserve the priority of
Beneficiary’s lien upon the Personal Property Collateral.

     3.10 Releases. Without notice and without regard to the consideration
therefor, and to the existence at that time of any inferior liens, Beneficiary may release from the
lien created hereby all or any part of the Property, or release from liability any person obligated
to repay any of the Obligations, without affecting the liability of any party to any of the Notes,
this Deed of Trust, or any of the other Loan Documents (including without limitation any guaranty
given as additional security) and without in any way affecting the priority of the lien created
hereby. Beneficiary may agree with any liable party to extend the time for payment of any part or
all of the Obligations. Such agreement shall not in any way release or impair the lien created by
this Deed of Trust or reduce or modify the liability of any person or entity obligated personally
to repay the Obligations, but shall extend the lien created by this Deed of Trust as against the
title of all parties having any interest in the Property.

6

 

     3.11 Further Assurances. Trustor agrees that, upon the request of
Beneficiary from time to time, it will, at Trustor’s sole cost and expense, execute, acknowledge
and deliver all such additional instruments and further assurances of title and will do or cause to
be done all such further acts and things as may reasonably be necessary to fully effectuate the
intent of this Deed of Trust. In the event that Trustor shall fail to do any of the foregoing,
Beneficiary may, in its sole discretion, do so in the name of Trustor, and Trustor hereby appoints
Beneficiary as its attorney-in-fact to do any of the foregoing.

IV.

EVENT OF DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

     4.1 Event of Default. The occurrence of an “Event of Default,” as such term
is defined in the Credit Agreement, shall constitute an “Event of Default” under this Deed of
Trust.

     4.2 Foreclosure and Sale. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of
a Default or Event of Default, Beneficiary may foreclose this Deed of Trust, either by judicial
action or through Trustee. If this Deed of Trust encumbers more than one parcel of real estate,
foreclosure may be by separate parcel or en masse, as Beneficiary may elect in its sole discretion.
Foreclosure through Trustee will be initiated by Beneficiary’s filing of its notice of election and
demand for sale with Trustee. Upon the filing of such notice of election and demand for sale,
Trustee shall promptly comply with all notice and other requirements of the laws of Colorado then
in force with respect to such sales, and shall give four weeks’ public notice of the time and place
of such sale by advertisement weekly in some newspaper of general circulation then published in the
County or City and County in which the Property is located. Any sale conducted by Trustee pursuant
to this Section shall be held at the front door of the county courthouse for such County or City
and County, or on the Property, or at such other place as similar sales are then customarily held
in such County or City and County, provided that the actual place of sale shall be specified in the
notice of sale. All fees, costs and expenses of any kind incurred by Beneficiary in connection with
foreclosure of this Deed of Trust, including, without limitation, the costs of any appraisals of
the Property obtained by Beneficiary, all costs of any receivership for the Property advanced by
Beneficiary, all costs of any environmental audits or tests incurred by Beneficiary and all
attorneys’ and consultants’ fees incurred by Beneficiary, shall constitute a part of the Secured
Indebtedness and may be included as part of the amount owing from Trustor to Beneficiary at any
foreclosure sale. The proceeds of any sale under this Section shall be applied first to the fees
and expenses of the Trustee or other officer conducting the sale (all of which shall be part of the
obligations secured by this Deed of Trust), and then to the reduction or discharge of the Secured
Indebtedness in accordance with the Credit Agreement; any surplus remaining shall be paid over to
Trustor or to such other person or persons as may be lawfully entitled to such surplus.
Beneficiary may bid at any such foreclosure sale, and in connection therewith Beneficiary may
credit bid all or any portion of the Secured Indebtedness (including, without limitation, the
Trustee’s fees and expenses, Beneficiary’s attorneys’ and appraisal fees, and all other expenses
incurred by Beneficiary in undertaking the foreclosure). At the conclusion of any foreclosure
sale, the officer conducting the sale shall execute and deliver to the purchaser at the sale a
certificate of purchase which shall describe the Property sold to such purchaser and shall state
that upon the expiration of the applicable periods for redemption, the holder of such certificate
will be entitled to a deed to the Property described in the certificate. After the expiration of
all applicable periods of redemption, unless the Property sold has been redeemed by Trustor, the
officer who conducted such sale shall, upon request, execute and deliver an appropriate deed to the
holder of the certificate of purchase or the last certificate of redemption, as the case may be,
and such deed shall operate to divest Trustor and all persons claiming under Trustor of all right,
title, and interest, whether legal or equitable, in the Property described in the deed. Nothing in
this Section or elsewhere in this Deed of Trust dealing with foreclosure procedures or specifying
particular actions to be taken by Beneficiary or by Trustee or any similar officer shall be deemed
to contradict or add to the

7

 

requirements and procedures now or hereafter specified by Colorado law, and any such
inconsistency shall be resolved in favor of Colorado law applicable at the time of foreclosure.

     4.3 Remedies Cumulative and Non-Waiver. No remedy or right of Beneficiary
hereunder or under the Credit Agreement, or any of the Loan Documents or otherwise, or available
under applicable law, shall be exclusive of any other right or remedy. Each such remedy or right
shall be in addition to every other remedy or right now or hereafter existing under any such
document or under applicable law. No delay in the exercise of, or omission to exercise, any remedy
or right accruing on the occurrence of any Event of Default shall impair any such remedy or right
or be construed to be a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein, nor shall
it affect any subsequent Event of Default of the same or a different nature, nor shall it extend or
affect any grace period. Every remedy or right may be exercised concurrently or independently,
when and as often as may be deemed expedient by the Beneficiary. All obligations of the Trustor,
and all rights, powers and remedies of the Beneficiary shall be in addition to, and not in
limitation of, those provided by law or in the Credit Agreement or contained in any of the Loan
Documents or any other written agreement or instrument relating to any of the Secured Indebtedness
or any security therefor.

     4.4 Beneficiary’s Performance of Trustor’s Obligations. Following the
occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuance thereof, Beneficiary, either before or
after acceleration of the Secured Indebtedness or the foreclosure of the lien hereof and during the
period of redemption, if any, may, but shall not be required to (a) make any payment or perform any
act herein, in the Notes or any other Loan Document which is required of Trustor (whether or not
Trustor is personally liable therefor) in any form and manner deemed expedient to Beneficiary; (b)
make full or partial payments of principal or interest on any permitted prior mortgage or
encumbrance and purchase, discharge, compromise or settle any tax lien or other prior lien on title
or claim thereof, or redeem from any tax sale or forfeiture affecting the Premises, or contest any
Impositions; and (c) complete construction, furnishing and equipping of the Improvements upon the
Premises and rent, operate and manage the Premises and such Improvements and pay operating costs
and expenses, including management fees, of every kind and nature in connection therewith, so that
the Premises and Improvements shall be operational and usable for their intended purposes. All
monies paid for any of the purposes herein authorized, and all expenses paid or incurred in
connection therewith, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, shall constitute Secured Indebtedness,
and shall become due and payable upon demand and with interest thereon at the Default Rate.
Beneficiary, in making any payment hereby authorized: (x) for the payment of Impositions, may do so
according to any bill or statement, without inquiry into the validity of any tax, assessment, sale,
forfeiture, tax lien or title or claim thereof; (y) for the purchase, discharge, compromise or
settlement of any other prior lien, may do so without inquiry as to the validity or amount of any
claim or lien which may be asserted; or (z) for the completion of construction, furnishing or
equipping of the Improvements or the Premises or the rental, operation or management of the
Premises or the payment of operating cost and expenses thereof, may do so in such amounts and to
such persons as Beneficiary may deem appropriate and may enter into such contracts therefor as
Beneficiary may deem appropriate or may perform the same itself.

     4.5 Right of Possession. Following the occurrence of an Event of Default
and during the continuance thereof, Trustor shall, immediately upon Beneficiary’s demand, surrender
to Beneficiary, and Beneficiary shall be entitled to take actual possession of the Property or any
part thereof, personally or by its agent or attorneys. Beneficiary may enter upon and take and
maintain possession or may apply to the court in which a foreclosure is pending to be placed in
possession of all or any part of the Property, together with all documents, books, records, papers,
and accounts of Trustor or the then owner of the Property relating thereto. Beneficiary may
exclude Trustor, such owner, and any agents and servants from the Property. As attorney-in-fact or
agent of Trustor or such owner, or in its own name Beneficiary may hold, operate, manage, and
control all or any part of the Property, either personally or by its agents. Beneficiary shall
have

8

 

full power to use such measures, legal or equitable, as it may deem proper or necessary to
enforce the payment or security of the rents, issues, deposits, profits, and avails of the
Property, including actions for recovery of rent, actions in forcible detainer, and actions in
distress for rent, all without notice to Trustor.

     4.6 Application of Income Received by Beneficiary. Beneficiary, in the
exercise of the rights and powers hereinabove conferred upon it, shall have full power to use and
apply the avails, rents, issues and profits of the Property to the payment of or on account of the
following, in such order as Beneficiary may determine: (i) to the payment of the operating
expenses of the Property including cost of management thereof, established claims for damages, if
any, and premiums on insurance hereinabove authorized; (ii) to the payment of taxes and special
assessments now due or which may hereafter become due on the Premises; (iii) to all other items
which may under the terms hereof constitute Secured Indebtedness additional to that evidenced by
the Notes, with interest thereon as provided herein or in the other Loan Documents; and (iv) to all
principal and interest remaining unpaid on the Notes.

     4.7 Intentionally Omitted.

     4.8 Foreclosure by Power of Sale. If Beneficiary elects to foreclose by
exercise of the power of sale contained herein, Beneficiary shall notify Trustee and shall, if
required, deposit with Trustee the Notes, the original or a certified copy of this Deed of Trust,
and such other documents, receipts and evidences of expenditures made and secured hereby as Trustee
may require.

     (a) Upon receipt of such notice from Beneficiary, Trustee shall cause to be
recorded and delivered to Trustor such notice as may then be required by law and by this
Deed of Trust. Trustee shall, without demand on Trustor, after lapse of such time as may
then be required by law and after recordation of such notice of default and after notice of
sale has been given as required by law, sell the Property at the time and place of sale
fixed by it in said notice of sale, either as a whole or in separate lots or parcels or
items as Trustee shall deem expedient, and in such order as it may determine, at public
auction to the highest bidder for cash in lawful money of the United States payable at the
time of sale. Trustee shall deliver to the purchaser or purchasers at such sale its good and
sufficient deed or deeds conveying the property so sold, but without any covenant or
warranty, express or implied. The recitals in such deed of any matters or facts shall be
conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof. Any person, including, without limitation,
Trustor, Trustee, Beneficiary or the Lenders, may purchase at such sale, and Trustor hereby
covenants to warrant and defend the title of such purchaser or purchasers.

     (b) Trustee may postpone the sale of all or any portion of the Property by
public announcement at the time and place of the scheduled sale, and from time to time
thereafter may postpone such sale by public announcement at the time fixed by the preceding
postponement or subsequent notice of sale, and without further notice may make such sale at
the time fixed by the last postponement, or may, in its discretion, give a new notice of
sale.

     (c) Trustor hereby expressly waives any right which it may have to direct the
order in which any of the Property shall be sold in the event of any sale or sales pursuant
to this Deed of Trust.

     4.9 Rescission of Notice of Default. Beneficiary (on behalf of the Lenders)
may from time to time rescind any notice of default or notice of sale before any Trustee’s sale as
provided above, by executing and delivering to Trustee a written notice of such rescission, which
such notice, when recorded, shall also

9

 

constitute a cancellation of any prior declaration of default and demand for sale. The
exercise by Beneficiary of such right of rescission shall not constitute a waiver of any breach or
default then existing or subsequently occurring, or impair the right of Beneficiary to execute and
deliver to Trustee, as above provided, other declarations or notices of default to satisfy the
obligations of this Deed of Trust or the obligations secured hereby, nor otherwise affect any
provision, covenant or condition of any Loan Document or any of the rights, obligations or remedies
of Trustee, Beneficiary or the Lenders hereunder or thereunder.

     4.10 Application of Proceeds of Foreclosure Sale. The proceeds of any
foreclosure sale of the Property shall be distributed and applied in the following order of
priority: first, to all costs and expenses incident to the foreclosure proceedings, including all
such items as are mentioned in Section 4.4 hereof; second, to all other items which may under the
terms hereof constitute Secured Indebtedness in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

     4.11 Insurance Upon Foreclosure. In case of an insured loss after
foreclosure proceedings have been instituted, the proceeds of any insurance policy or policies, if
not applied in repairing, restoring, replacing or rebuilding any portion of the Property, shall be
used to pay the amount due in accordance with any decree of foreclosure that may be entered in any
such proceedings, and the balance, if any, shall be paid as the court may direct. In case of the
foreclosure of this Deed of Trust, the court in its judgment may provide that the judgment creditor
may cause a new or additional loss clause to be attached to each of said policies making the loss
thereunder payable to said judgment creditor; and any such foreclosure judgment may further
provide, unless the right of redemption has been waived, that in case of redemption under said
judgment, then, and in every such case, the redemptory may cause the preceding loss clause attached
to each insurance policy to be canceled and a new loss clause to be attached thereto, making the
loss thereunder payable to such redemptory.

     4.12 Waiver of Statutory Rights. Trustor shall not apply for or avail
itself of any appraisement, valuation, redemption, stay, extension, or exemption laws, or any
so-called “moratorium laws,” now existing or hereafter enacted, in order to prevent or hinder the
enforcement or foreclosure of this Deed of Trust, and Trustor hereby waives the benefit of such
laws. Trustor, for itself and all who may claim through or under it, waives any and all rights to
have the Property and estates comprising the Property marshaled upon any foreclosure of the lien of
this Deed of Trust, and agrees that any court having jurisdiction to foreclose such lien may order
the Property sold in its entirety. Trustor further waives any and all rights of redemption from
foreclosure and from sale under any order or decree of foreclosure of the lien created by this Deed
of Trust, for itself and on behalf of: (i) any trust estate of which the Premises are a part; (ii)
all beneficially interested persons; (iii) each and every person acquiring any interest in the
Property or title to the Premises subsequent to the date of this Deed of Trust; and (iv) all other
persons to the extent permitted by the provisions of laws of the State in which the Premises are
located.

     4.13 Effect of Judgment. The obtaining of any judgment by Beneficiary and
any levy of any execution under any judgment upon the Property shall not affect in any manner or to
any extent the Lien of this Deed of Trust upon the Property or any part thereof, or any Liens,
powers, rights and remedies of Beneficiary hereunder, but such Liens, powers, rights and remedies
shall continue unimpaired as before until the judgment or levy is satisfied.

     4.14 Request for Notice. Trustor hereby requests a copy of any notice of
default and requests that any notice of sale hereunder be mailed to Trustor at the address
referenced in Section 6.2 hereof. Otherwise, neither Trustee nor Beneficiary is under any
obligation to notify any person or entity of any action

10

 

or proceeding of any kind in which Trustor, Beneficiary and/or Trustee shall be a party,
unless brought by Trustee, or of any pending sale under any other deed of trust. 

V.

     5.3 Intentionally Omitted.

     5.4 Covenants Run with Land. All of the covenants of this Deed of Trust
shall run with the land constituting the Premises.

     5.5 GOVERNING LAW. THIS DEED OF TRUST AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE
PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL
LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL
OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK), EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT COLORADO LAW NECESSARILY
APPLIES BECAUSE THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED IN COLORADO.

     5.6 Severability. If any provision of this Deed of Trust, or any paragraph,
sentence, clause, phrase, or word, or their application, in any circumstance, is held invalid, the
validity of the remainder of this Deed of Trust shall be construed as if such invalid part were
never included.

     5.7 Non-Waiver. Unless expressly provided in this Deed of Trust to the
contrary, no consent or waiver, express or implied, by any party, to or of any breach or default by
any other party shall be deemed a consent to or waiver of the performance by such defaulting party
of any other obligations or the performance by any other party of the same, or of any other,
obligations.

     5.8 Headings. The headings of sections and paragraphs in this Deed of Trust
are for convenience or reference only and shall not be construed in any way to limit or define the
content, scope, or intent of the provisions.

     5.9 Grammar. As used in this Deed of Trust, the singular shall include the
plural, and masculine, feminine, and neuter pronouns shall be fully interchangeable, where the
context so requires.

12

 

     5.10 Deed in Trust. If title to the Property or any part thereof is now or
hereafter becomes vested in a trustee, any prohibition or restriction against the creation of any
lien on the Property shall be construed as a similar prohibition or restriction against the
creation of any lien on or security interest in the beneficial interest of such trust.

     5.11 Successors and Assigns. This Deed of Trust shall be binding upon
Trustor, its successors, assigns, legal representatives, and all other persons or entities claiming
under or through Trustor. The word “Beneficiary,” when used herein, shall include each of: (i) the
Agent in its capacity as collateral agent for the Lenders; and (ii) the Lenders, together with each
of their successors, assigns and legal representatives.

     5.12 Counterparts. This Deed of Trust may be executed in any number of
separate counterparts, each of which shall collectively and separately constitute one Deed of
Trust.

     5.13 Mortgagee in Possession. Nothing contained in this Deed of Trust shall
be construed as constituting Beneficiary a mortgagee in possession in the absence of the actual
taking of possession of the Property.

     5.14 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY
WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY
IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS DEED OF TRUST OR
THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH
PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS
REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION,
SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE
BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE
MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

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

     5.16 Reconveyance. If and when Trustor has paid all of the Secured
Indebtedness and has strictly performed and observed all of the agreements, terms, conditions,
provisions and warranties contained herein and in the Credit Agreement and in all of the Loan
Documents and there exist no commitments of the Lenders under the Loan Documents which could give
rise to Secured Indebtedness, Beneficiary, upon the written request of Trustor, will deliver to
Trustee a written request for reconveyance, and will surrender to Trustee for cancellation this
Deed of Trust; however, Beneficiary will have no obligation to deliver the written request until
Beneficiary and the Lenders have been paid by Trustor, in immediately available funds, all escrow,
closing, and recording costs, the costs of preparing and issuing the reconveyance, and any
trustee’s or reconveyance fees. Upon Trustee’s receipt of the written request by Beneficiary and
any other required documents, Trustee will reconvey, without warranty, the Property or that portion
then held. To the extent permitted by law, the reconveyance may describe the grantee as the person
or persons legally entitled and the

13

 

recitals of any matters or facts in any reconveyance will be conclusive proof of the
truthfulness of them. Neither Beneficiary nor Trustee will have any duty to determine the rights of
persons claiming to be rightful grantees of any reconveyance. When the Property has been fully
reconveyed, the last reconveyance will operate as a reassignment of all future Rents of the
Property to the person legally entitled.

     5.17 Compliance with Applicable Law. Anything elsewhere herein contained to
the contrary notwithstanding,

     (a) In the event that any provision in this Deed of Trust shall be
inconsistent with any provision of Colorado law regarding foreclosure (the “Colorado
Foreclosure Law”), the provisions of the Colorado Foreclosure Law shall take precedence
over the provisions of this Deed of Trust, but shall not invalidate or render unenforceable
any other provision of this Deed of Trust that can be construed in a manner consistent with
Colorado Foreclosure Law; and

     (b) If any provision of this Deed of Trust shall grant to Beneficiary
(including Beneficiary acting as a mortgagee-in-possession) or a receiver appointed pursuant
to the provisions of this Deed of Trust, any rights or remedies prior to, upon or following
the occurrence of an Event of Default which are more limited than the rights that would
otherwise be vested in Beneficiary or such receiver under the Colorado Foreclosure Law in
the absence of said provision, Beneficiary and such receiver shall be vested with the rights
granted under the Colorado Foreclosure Law to the full extent permitted by law.

     5.18 Secured Indebtedness to Include Judgments; Other Collateral. The term
“Secured Indebtedness” as defined in this Deed of Trust shall include, without limitation, any
judgment(s) or final decree(s) rendered to collect any money obligations of Trustor to Beneficiary
and/or the Lenders and/or to enforce the performance or collection of all rights, remedies,
obligations, covenants, agreements, conditions, indemnities, representations, warranties, and other
liabilities of the Trustor under this Deed of Trust or any or all of the other Loan Documents. The
obtaining of any judgment by Beneficiary and/or the Lenders (other than a judgment foreclosing this
Deed of Trust) and any levy of any execution under any such judgment upon the Property shall not
affect in any manner or to any extent the lien of this Deed of Trust upon the Property or any part
thereof, or any liens, powers, rights and remedies of Beneficiary and/or the Lenders hereunder, but
such liens, powers, rights and remedies shall continue unimpaired as before until the judgment or
levy is satisfied. Furthermore, Trustor acknowledges and agrees that the Secured Indebtedness is
secured by the Property and various other collateral at the time of execution of this Deed of
Trust. Trustor specifically acknowledges and agrees that the Property, in and of itself, if
foreclosed or realized upon would not be sufficient to satisfy the outstanding amount of the
Secured Indebtedness. Accordingly, Trustor acknowledges that it is in Trustor’s contemplation that
the other collateral pledged to secure the Secured Indebtedness may be pursued by Beneficiary in
separate proceedings in the various states and counties where such collateral may be located and
additionally that Trustor will remain liable for any deficiency judgments in addition to any
amounts Beneficiary and/or the Lenders may realize on sales of other property or any other
collateral given as security for the Secured Indebtedness. Specifically, and without limitation of
the foregoing, it is agreed that it is the intent of the parties hereto that in the event of a
foreclosure of this Deed of Trust, that the Secured Indebtedness shall not be deemed merged into
any judgment of foreclosure, but shall rather remain outstanding to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law.

     5.19 Survival. Even though the lien of this Deed of Trust shall be released
from the Property subject to Article I, any of the terms and provisions of this Deed of Trust that
are intended to survive shall nevertheless survive the release or satisfaction of this Deed of
Trust whether voluntarily granted by

14

 

Beneficiary or the Lenders, as a result of a judgment upon judicial foreclosure of this Deed
of Trust or in the event a deed in lieu of foreclosure is granted by Trustor to Beneficiary and/or
the Lenders.

     5.20 Agent. The Agent shall have all of the rights, privileges and
immunities granted to the Agent under the Credit Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents (as
defined in the Credit Agreement) to which it is a party, all of which are incorporated herein
mutatis mutandis.
