3. Use of Ammonia and UAN railcars by REMC.

a. During the period between the Effective Time and December 31, 2010, Agrium U.S. (i) shall
maintain ten (10) ammonia railcars and ten (10) UAN railcars and (ii) shall make such railcars
available for use by REMC, at REMC’s option (which option must be exercised within ten (10)
business days after the Effective Time), in the Facility, in each case, subject to the terms and
conditions of the applicable lease agreement(s) governing such railcars between Agrium U.S. and the
applicable leasing company. REMC hereby acknowledges and agrees to operate and maintain such
railcars in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable lease agreement(s) governing
such railcars between Agrium U.S. and the applicable leasing company. Subject to the terms and
conditions of the applicable lease agreement(s), Agrium U.S. shall provide REMC with a copy of the
applicable lease agreement(s) not later than ten (10) business days following the date hereof.

b. During the period between January 1, 2011 and December 31, 2015, Agrium U.S. shall maintain
ten (10) ammonia railcars and REMC may, at REMC’s option (which option must be exercised not later
than December 15, 2010), for the entire duration of such period, sublease such ten (10) ammonia
railcars from Agrium U.S., in each case, subject to the terms and conditions contained in the
applicable lease agreement(s) governing such railcars between Agrium U.S. and the applicable
leasing company. The terms and conditions of such sublease agreement(s) between Agrium U.S. and
REMC (including the consideration to be paid in connection with REMC’s sublease of such ten (10)
ammonia railcars) shall be on a fully-net basis (so that all the costs and expenses incurred by
Agrium U.S. in connection with the applicable lease agreement(s) with the applicable leasing
company shall be paid in full by REMC) and shall reflect the same terms and conditions contained in
the underlying lease agreement(s) between Agrium U.S. and the applicable leasing company, as
applicable. To the extent different than the lease agreement(s) previously provided to REMC in
accordance with Section 3(a) above, and subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable lease
agreement(s), Agrium U.S. shall provide REMC with a copy of the applicable lease agreement(s) not
later than December 1, 2010.

c. Subject to applicable law, Agrium U.S. shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to
take all actions (reasonably within Agrium U.S.’s control) which may be necessary to provide REMC
with the full benefit of such applicable lease agreement(s) referred to in Section 3(a) and Section
3(b) above, as
applicable (including, to the extent requested by REMC, extending the term thereof until
December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2015, as applicable) as they relate to such railcars.

 

3

 

d. Upon REMC’s exercise of its option pursuant to Section 3(a) and/or Section 3(b) above, as
applicable, and subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable lease agreement(s) governing
such railcars between Agrium U.S. and the applicable leasing company, Agrium U.S. shall permit REMC
to exclusively direct and manage all operations, administrative matters, contract management
(including amendments), negotiations, claims, bankruptcy or other proceedings involving such lease
agreement(s) as they relate to the railcars utilized by REMC. Agrium U.S. shall promptly pay REMC
any amounts received in connection with any such lease agreement(s) referred to in Section 3(a) and
Section 3(b) above, as applicable, as they relate to such railcars being utilized by REMC during
the option periods contemplated under Section 3(a) and Section 3(b) above, as applicable. Agrium
U.S. shall also, at Agrium U.S.’s expense: (i) comply with any reasonable lawful instruction
provided by REMC in respect of the applicable lease agreement(s) as they relate to the railcars
utilized by REMC; (ii) refrain from incurring any costs under such lease agreement(s) which were
not scheduled to be paid pursuant to the applicable lease agreement(s); and (iii) provide any
relevant information, as reasonably requested by REMC, in connection with any such lease
agreements(s) as they relate to the railcars being utilized by REMC. Agrium U.S. further agrees to
not amend, modify, terminate, extend or grant any waivers under any applicable lease agreement as
they relate to the railcars being utilized by REMC without REMC’s prior written consent (which
consent may not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned).

e. To the extent REMC exercises the option referred to in Section 3(a) and/or Section 3(b)
above, REMC shall indemnify Agrium U.S. and its affiliates for, and hold Agrium U.S. and its
affiliates harmless from, all Losses arising out of, resulting from or otherwise in respect of
REMC’s use and maintenance of any of the railcars referred to in Section 3(a) and/or Section 3(b)
above, as applicable, and shall reimburse such persons from and against and with respect to all
Losses resulting or arising thereunder. REMC shall not be required to indemnify Agrium U.S. and
its affiliates for Losses to the extent arising out of, or resulting from, Agrium U.S. or any its
affiliates’ intentional acts, omissions or negligence or non-compliance with this Section 3.
“Losses” shall mean any and all losses, injuries, damages, deficiencies, claims,
liabilities, costs (including reasonable legal and other costs), penalties, interest, expenses and
obligations; provided, however, that Losses shall not include punitive, exemplary, remote or
speculative damages, except to the extend paid by Agrium U.S. or its affiliates to a third party.

4. Extension of the Storage Term pursuant to Article III of the Distribution
Agreement.

a. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Distribution Agreement to the contrary and upon
the terms and subject to the conditions of this
Amendment, concurrently with the Closing, Article III (Terminal Services) of the Distribution
Agreement shall be amended such that Agrium U.S. shall grant REMC an option to extend the Storage
Term of the Terminal Services in the NIOTA Facility for an

 

4

 

additional five (5) year period starting
on July 1, 2016 and ending on June 30, 2021, which extended Storage Term shall continue to be
subject to the terms and conditions currently in effect under the Distribution Agreement.

b. REMC shall have the right to exercise such option contemplated by Section 4(a) of this
Amendment upon a written notice to Agrium U.S., which written notice shall be delivered to Agrium
U.S. no later then the end of business day on March 31, 2016.

c. Except as provided in this Section 4 and Section 9, the provisions of Article III shall
remain unchanged during such additional five (5) year period.

5. Transitional Services. During the period between the Effective Time and six (6)
months thereafter, at no cost to REMC, Agrium U.S. shall provide REMC with transitional marketing
(including the provision of detailed customer lists, customer contact information and customer
account history), customer service and related IT support, in each case, only with respect to the
marketing and sale of Products from the Facility and the storage of the same (the “Transitional
Services”). Agrium U.S. shall provide the Transitional Services in a manner consistent with
Agrium U.S.’s internal practices prior to the Closing and otherwise in a manner intended to
facilitate the transfer of responsibility over the marketing of Product produced at the Facility
from Agrium U.S. to REMC as contemplated hereby. Nothing in this Section 5 shall require Agrium
U.S. to perform, or cause any third party to perform, such Transitional Services in a manner that
would constitute a violation of any law. REMC shall indemnify Agrium U.S. and its affiliates for,
and hold Agrium U.S. and its affiliates harmless from, all Losses arising out of, resulting from or
otherwise in respect of negligent actions or willful misconduct by REMC or its subsidiaries,
agents, employees or affiliates with respect to the receipt of the Transitional Services or that
otherwise damage Agrium U.S.’s property, facilities, equipment or other infrastructure used in the
provision of such Transitional Services.

6. Additional Terminal Services.

a. If the Effective Time occurs on or before June 30, 2010, then during the period between
July 1, 2010 and June 30, 2015, Agrium U.S. shall provide REMC with additional 7,500 tons of
ammonia storage capacity per year at one of the following facilities (as determined by Agrium
U.S.): (i) CF’s facility located in Albany, Illinois, which facility is to be acquired at the
Closing, or (ii) CF’s facility located in Kingston Mines, Illinois, which facility is to be
acquired at the Closing (the facility selected, the “Additional Storage Facility”).

b. If the Effective Time occurs after June 30, 2010, then during the period between July 1,
2011 and June 30, 2016, Agrium U.S. shall provide REMC with additional 7,500 tons of ammonia
storage capacity per year at the Additional Storage Facility. In addition, Agrium U.S. and REMC
may mutually agree upon an

 

5

 

arrangement for Agrium U.S. to provide REMC with additional 7,500 tons
of ammonia storage capacity at the Additional Storage Facility during the period between the
Effective Time and June 30, 2011.

c. Agrium U.S. shall also grant REMC an option to extend the use of the Additional Storage
Facility (as contemplated by Section 6(a) or Section 6(b) above, as applicable) for an additional
four (4) year period: (i) starting on July 1, 2015 and ending on June 30, 2019 in the event the
Additional Storage Facility is utilized pursuant to Section 6(a) and (ii) starting on July 1, 2016
and ending on June 30, 2020 in the event the Additional Storage Facility is utilized pursuant to
Section 6(b).

d. Except as provided in this Amendment, the terms and conditions of the terminal services to
be provided by Agrium U.S. with respect to the Additional Storage Facility shall reflect the same
terms and conditions currently in effect under Article III of the Distribution Agreement with
respect to the NIOTA Facility, as applicable; provided, however, that such terms
and conditions shall be adjusted pro rata to reflect 7,500 tons of ammonia storage capacity per
year to be used in the Additional Storage Facility relative to the storage capacity per year as
currently in effect under the Distribution Agreement with respect to the NIOTA Facility. For the
avoidance of doubt, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, with respect to storage at the
Additional Storage Facility (including level of service, freight costs, failure to receive ammonia,
risk of loss and access), all references to “NIOTA Facility” in Article III of the Distribution
Agreement (e.g., Section 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 3.8 and 3.9 of the Distribution Agreement) shall be deemed
to refer to the Additional Storage Facility.

e. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 6 to the contrary, the terminal services fees with
respect to the Additional Storage Facility to be paid by REMC to Agrium U.S. shall be equal to (i)
the direct on-site, full operating costs (whether fixed and/or variable) per tonne charged at the
NIOTA facility (assuming the entire NIOTA facility is being utilized and determined in a manner
consistent with the methodologies set forth in the Distribution Agreement, as amended hereby)
multiplied by the number of tonnes utilized by REMC at the Additional Storage Facility plus (ii) a
$12,500 per month fixed fee.

7. Future Agreements with respect to Ammonia Barges. To the extent REMC, during any
period which is outside of the ammonia application season, determines that it needs to transport
ammonia products from the Facility to either the NIOTA Facility or the Additional Storage Facility,
Agrium U.S. agrees to enter into negotiations with REMC, in good faith, seeking to reach agreements
(containing commercially reasonable terms and conditions) with respect to the usage by REMC of
Agrium U.S.’s available and unused, if existing, ammonia barges capacity.

8. Consideration. If the Effective Time occurs and in addition to any payment by REMC
or any of its affiliates to Agrium U.S. or any of its affiliates pursuant to the terms of the
Distribution Agreement, as amended herein, as a consideration for the

 

6

 

amendments, terminations,
transactions and services contemplated by this Amendment, REMC agrees to pay Agrium U.S. (a) in
the event the Effective Time occurs prior to October 1, 2010, an amount equal to U.S.$2,000,000 on
each of January 1, 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014 (such that the total consideration to be paid shall
equal U.S.$8,000,000), or (b) in the event the Effective Time occurs on or after October 1, 2010,
an amount equal to U.S.$2,000,000 on each of January 1, 2012, 2013 and 2014 (such that the total
consideration to be paid shall equal U.S.$6,000,000).

9. Assignment of the Distribution Agreement to REMC. Notwithstanding anything in
Section 11 of this Amendment to the contrary, concurrently with the execution of this Amendment,
Rentech is hereby assigning, conveying or otherwise transferring its rights, title and interest
under the Distribution Agreement to REMC in accordance with Section 8.2 of the Distribution

acknowledges this assignment and the parties hereby agree that this Section 9 shall survive any
termination of this Amendment.

10. Definition of the term “Pro Rata Share” in the Distribution Agreement.

a. Notwithstanding anything in this Amendment to the contrary, Agrium U.S., Rentech and REMC
hereby agree that the definition of the term “Pro Rata Share” in Article III of the Distribution
Agreement shall be amended to add the following phrase at the end of the definition thereof: “;
provided, however, that the Pro Rata Share shall not exceed a fraction, expressed as a percentage,
the numerator of which shall be equal to the Current Limit and the denominator of which shall be
equal to the Maximum SQ.”

b. Notwithstanding anything in Section 11 below to the contrary, the amendment of the term
“Pro Rata Share” as contemplated in Section 10(a) above shall become effective concurrently with

c. Notwithstanding anything in Section 12(b) above to the contrary, under no circumstances
shall Rentech or REMC be obligated to provide any non-public information, documents, or materials

consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) and if such provision would
otherwise violate any applicable securities laws.

terms of the Distribution Agreement.

15. Confidentiality.

a. Each party agrees to keep confidential, and not to disclose or allow disclosure by any of

Effective Time and until this Amendment is terminated in accordance with its terms and conditions,

conditions of the Distribution Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Amendment shall
constitute the agreement between the parties herein and shall supersede the agreements contained in
the Distribution Agreement.

TO EACH OF THE PURCHASERS LISTED IN

SCHEDULE A HERETO:

Ladies and Gentlemen:

TRANSWESTERN PIPELINE COMPANY, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the
“Company”), agrees with each of the purchasers whose names appear at the end hereof (each,
a “Purchaser” and, collectively, the “Purchasers”) as follows:

Section 1. AUTHORIZATION OF NOTES.

The Company will authorize the issue and sale of: (i) $175,000,000 aggregate principal amount
of its 5.36% Senior Unsecured Series A Notes due December 9, 2020 (the “Series A Notes”)
and (ii) $175,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 5.66% Senior Unsecured Series B Notes due
December 9, 2024 (the “Series B Notes” and together with the Series A Notes, the
“Notes”). The term “Notes” shall also include any such notes issued in substitution
therefor pursuant to Section 13 of this Agreement. In addition, the Notes shall be substantially in
the forms set forth in Exhibit 1(a) and Exhibit 1(b), respectively.

Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Schedule B; reference
to a “Schedule” or an “Exhibit” are, unless otherwise specified, to a Schedule or an Exhibit
attached to this Agreement.

Section 2. SALE AND PURCHASE.

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

Section 3. CLOSING.

The sale and purchase of the entire aggregate principal amount of the Series A Notes and
Series B Notes to be purchased by each Purchaser indicated on Schedule A hereto shall occur
at

 

 

 

the offices of Dewey & LeBoeuf LLP, 1301 Avenue of the Americas, New York, NY 10019, at 10:00
a.m., New York time, at a closing on December 9, 2009 (the “Closing”). At the Closing, the
Company will deliver to each Purchaser the Notes to be purchased by such Purchaser in the form of a
single Series A Note and/or Series B Note, as the case may be, (or such greater number of Series A
Notes and/or Series B Notes, as the case may be, in denominations of at least $100,000 as such
Purchaser may request) dated as of the date of the Closing and registered in such Purchaser’s name
(or in the name of its nominee), against delivery by such Purchaser to the Company or its order of
immediately available funds in the amount of the purchase price therefor by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to such account(s) designated by the Company in the letter provided
pursuant to Section 4.10 of this Agreement or at such other account(s) as shall be specified in
writing to the Purchasers. If at the Closing the Company shall fail to tender such Notes to any
Purchaser that is scheduled to purchase Notes on such date as provided above in this Section 3, or
any of the conditions specified in Section 4 shall not have been fulfilled to such Purchaser’s
satisfaction, such Purchaser shall, at its election, be relieved of all further obligations under
this Agreement, without thereby waiving any rights such Purchaser may have by reason of such
failure or such nonfulfillment.

Section 4. CONDITIONS TO CLOSING.

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

Section 4.1. Representations and Warranties.

The representations and warranties of the Company in this Agreement shall be true and correct
when made and as of the date of the Closing (other than any such representations and warranties
that, by their express terms, refer to a specific date other than the date of the Closing, in which
case, shall be true and correct as of such specific date). The statements of the Company and its
respective officers or Responsible Officers made in any certificates delivered pursuant to this
Agreement shall be true and correct, in all material respects, when made and as of the date of the
Closing (other than any such statements that, by their express terms, refer to a specific date
other than the date of the Closing, in which case, shall be true and correct as of such specific
date).

Section 4.2. Performance; No Default.

The Company shall have performed and complied, in all material respects, with all agreements
and conditions contained in this Agreement and the Notes required to be performed or complied with
by it prior to or at the Closing and, after giving effect to the issue and sale of the Notes (and
the application of the proceeds thereof as contemplated by Section 5.14) and of all other Debt to
be issued by the Company as of the date of the Closing, no Default or Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing. The Company shall not have entered into any transaction since the date
of the Memorandum that would have been prohibited by Section 9(g) or Section 10(a), (b), (c), (f),
(g), (i) or (j) had such Sections applied since such date.

Cash Proceeds in excess of 15% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets (determined as of the end of the
fiscal quarter of the Company immediately prior to the commencement of such 12-month period (and

the Notes held by each holder on a date specified in such offer (the “Proposed Asset Sale
Prepayment Date”). The Proposed Asset Sale Prepayment Date shall be not less than 30 days and
not more than 60 days after the date of such offer (if the Proposed Asset Sale Prepayment Date
shall not be specified in such offer, the Proposed Asset Sale Prepayment Date shall be the 60th day

rejection of such offer by such holder.

(d) Prepayment. The principal amount of the Notes to be prepaid pursuant to this Section 8.3
shall be at par and shall be equal to the amount, if any, by which the aggregate of all Net Cash
Proceeds from all of the Asset Sales referred to in Section 8.3(a) exceeds 15% of Consolidated Net

Senior Financial Officer to the effect that the Company and its Subsidiaries intend to reinvest
such Net Cash Proceeds (or a portion thereof specified in such certificate) in its business (or
enter into a binding commitment with respect to such reinvestment) within 365 days after receipt of
such Net Cash Proceeds, then no prepayment need be offered by the Company pursuant to the foregoing
provisions of this Section 8.3 in respect of such Net Cash Proceeds (or the portion of such Net
Cash Proceeds specified in such certificate, if applicable), except that, if (x) any such Net Cash
Proceeds have not been so applied by the end of such 365-day period or (y) the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries have not entered into a binding commitment with respect to such application of
such Net Cash Proceeds within such 365-day period and not reinvested in its business pursuant to
such commitment within 180 days after entering into such commitment, the Company shall offer to
prepay the Notes at that time in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.3 in an
amount equal to the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds that have not been so applied pro rata with
the prepayment of the Term Advances under the New Credit Facility (if a prepayment is triggered
under the New Credit Facility under such circumstances).

Section 8.4. Change of Control Put.

(a) Notice of Change of Control or Control Event. The Company will, within three Business
Days after any Responsible Officer of the Company has knowledge of the occurrence of any Change of

prepay Notes as described in paragraph (c) of this Section 8.4 and shall be accompanied by the

(the “Proposed Change of Control Prepayment Date”). The Proposed Change of Control
Prepayment Date shall be not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days after the date of such
offer (if the Proposed Change of Control Prepayment Date shall not be specified in such offer, the
Proposed Change of Control Prepayment Date shall be the 60th day after the date of such offer).

(d) Acceptance; Rejection. A holder of Notes may accept the offer to prepay made pursuant to

(f) Deferral pending Change of Control. The obligation of the Company to prepay Notes
pursuant to the offers required by paragraph (b) and accepted in accordance with paragraph (d) of
this Section 8.4 is subject to the occurrence of the Change of Control in respect of which such
offers and acceptances shall have been made. In the event that such Change of Control does not
occur on the Proposed Change of Control Prepayment Date in respect thereof, the prepayment shall be
deferred until and shall be made on the date on which such Change of Control occurs. The Company
shall keep each holder of Notes reasonably and timely informed of (i) any such deferral of the date

In the case of each partial prepayment of the Notes, the principal amount of the Notes to be
prepaid shall be allocated among all of the Notes at the time outstanding in proportion, as

 

- 19 -

 

nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts thereof not theretofore
called for prepayment.

Section 8.6. Maturity; Surrender, Etc.

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

Section 8.7. Purchase of Notes.

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

Section 8.8. Make-Whole Amount.

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

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

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

“Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, 0.50% over the
yield to maturity implied by (i) the yields reported as of 10:00 a.m. (New York City time)
on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called
Principal, on the display designated as “Page PX1” (or such other display as may replace
Page PX1 on Bloomberg Financial Markets for the most recently issued

 

- 20 -

 

actively traded on the run U.S. Treasury securities having a maturity equal to the Remaining
Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date, or (ii) if such yields are
not reported as of such time or the yields reported as of such time are not ascertainable
(including by way of interpolation), the Treasury Constant Maturity Series Yields reported,
for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day
preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve
Statistical Release H.15 (519) (or any comparable successor publication) for U.S. Treasury
securities having a constant maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called
Principal as of such Settlement Date.

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

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

“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, all
payments of such Called Principal and interest thereon that would be due after the
Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal
were made prior to its scheduled due date, provided that if such Settlement Date is not a
date on which interest payments are due to be made under the terms of the Notes, then the
amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of
interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date
pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 12.1.

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

Section 9. AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS.

The Company covenants that so long as any of the Notes are outstanding, it shall:

(a) Compliance with Laws, Etc. Comply, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to comply, with all
applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders (including, without limitation, the

for such non-compliance as would not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Payment of Taxes, Etc. Pay and discharge, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to pay and
discharge, before the same shall become delinquent, (i) all material taxes, assessments and
governmental charges or levies imposed upon it or upon its property and (ii) all material lawful
claims that, if unpaid, might by law become a Lien upon its property; provided, however, that
neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to pay or discharge any such tax,
assessment, charge or claim that is being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings and as
to which appropriate reserves are being maintained, unless and until any Lien resulting therefrom
attaches to its property and becomes enforceable.

(c) Maintenance of Insurance. Maintain, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to maintain,
insurance with responsible and reputable insurance companies or associations and such insurance
shall be maintained in such amounts and covering such risks as is usually carried by companies
engaged in similar businesses and owning similar properties in the same general areas in which the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries operates.

(d) Preservation of Corporate Existence, Etc. Except as expressly permitted by Section 10(d),
preserve and maintain, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to preserve and maintain, its legal
existence, and, except as would not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, its
permits, licenses, approvals, privileges and franchises necessary to the normal conduct of its
business.

(e) Keeping of Books. Keep, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to keep, proper books of
record and account, in which full and correct entries shall be made of all financial transactions

(g) Transactions with Affiliates. Conduct, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to conduct, all
transactions otherwise permitted under the Loan Documents with any of their Affiliates on terms
that are no less favorable to the Company or such Subsidiary than it would obtain in a comparable

(h) Covenant Regarding Subsidiaries. Upon the formation or acquisition by the Company or any
of its Subsidiaries of any new direct or indirect Subsidiary that is organized under the laws of
any political subdivision of the United States of America, within ten (10) days after such
formation or acquisition, at the Company’s election, either (i) at the Company’s expense, cause
such Subsidiary, and cause each direct and indirect parent of such Subsidiary (if it has not
already done so), to duly execute and deliver to each holder of Notes a Subsidiary Guaranty,
guaranteeing the obligations of the Company and the other Subsidiary Guarantors under the Loan
Documents and to

 

- 22 -

 

provide an opinion of outside counsel of nationally recognized standing to the effect that
each Subsidiary Guaranty is a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Subsidiary Guarantor,
enforceable against such Subsidiary Guarantor in accordance with its terms, or (ii) notify each
holder of Notes that a Subsidiary shall not be a Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder and shall cause
such Subsidiary to be in compliance with Section 10(a) and Section 10(b) to the extent applicable
to a Non-Guarantor Subsidiary in addition to any other provisions of the Loan Documents applicable
to any Subsidiary of the Company. Each Subsidiary that has not delivered to each holder of the
Notes a Subsidiary Guaranty and the opinion required by clause (i) of this Section 9(h) is
hereinafter referred to as a “Non-Guarantor Subsidiary”.

Section 10. NEGATIVE COVENANTS.

The Company covenants that, so long as any of the Notes are outstanding, it will not, and it
will cause its Subsidiaries not to, at any time:

(a) Liens, Etc. Create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien on or with respect to any

such property, equipment or other fixed or capital assets, or Liens existing on any such
property, equipment or other fixed or capital assets at the time of acquisition, or
extensions, renewals or replacements of any of the foregoing for the same or a lesser
amount; provided that no such Lien shall extend to or cover any property other than the
property, equipment or other fixed or capital assets being acquired, constructed or
improved, and no such extension, renewal or replacement shall extend to or cover any
property not theretofore subject to the Lien being extended, renewed or replaced; and
provided, that the aggregate principal amount of the Debt secured by Liens permitted by this

notwithstanding the foregoing provision permitting the Priority Obligations Amount not to
exceed 15% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets (the “15% Basket”) and the proviso following
this parenthetical, the Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, use the 15%
Basket to grant, permit to exist or assume any Liens securing Debt outstanding under or
pursuant to any Qualifying Credit Facility unless and until the Notes (and any guaranty
delivered in connection therewith) shall be concurrently secured equally and ratably with
such Debt (including any guaranty delivered in connection therewith) pursuant to
documentation in form and substance satisfactory to the Required Holders); provided,
however, that if the Company or any of the Subsidiaries cannot or does not wish to comply

secured by such Lien (including details of such Lien) and (B) the Company and/or such
Subsidiary shall make, or cause to be made, effective a provision whereby the Notes will be
equally and ratably secured with the Debt with respect to which there is non-compliance with

an agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders and, in any such case, the
holders of Notes shall have the benefit, to the fullest extent that, and with such priority
as, the holders of the Notes may be entitled under applicable law, of an equitable Lien on
such property and (y) the holders of the Notes shall have received a favorable opinion of
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders with respect thereto.

Section 12. REMEDIES ON DEFAULT, ETC.

Section 12.1. Acceleration.

(a) If an Event of Default with respect to the Company described in Section 11(g)(i) or

time at its or their option, by notice or notices to the Company, declare all the Notes then
outstanding to be immediately due and payable.

(c) If any Event of Default described in Section 11(a) or Section 11(b) has occurred and is
continuing, any holder or holders of Notes at the time outstanding affected by such

hereby waived. The Company acknowledges, and the parties hereto agree, that each holder of a Note
has the right to maintain its investment in the Notes free from repayment by the Company (except as
herein specifically provided for) and that the provision for payment of a Make-Whole Amount by the
Company in the event that the Notes are prepaid or are accelerated as a result of an Event of
Default, is intended to provide compensation for the deprivation of such right under such
circumstances.

Section 12.2. Other Remedies.

If any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and irrespective of whether
any Notes have become or have been declared immediately due and payable under Section 12.1, the

a violation of any of the terms hereof or thereof, or in aid of the exercise of any power granted
hereby or thereby or by Law or otherwise.

Section 12.3. Rescission.

At any time after any Notes have been declared due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1(b) or
Section 12.1(c), Required Holders, by written notice to the Company, may rescind and annul any such
declaration and its consequences if (a) the Company has paid all overdue interest on the Notes, all
principal of and Make-Whole Amount, if any, on any Notes that are due and payable and are unpaid
other than by reason of such declaration, and all interest on such overdue principal and Make-Whole
Amount, if any, and (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) any overdue interest in respect of
the Notes, at the Default Rate, (b) neither the Company nor any other Person shall have paid any
amounts which have become due solely by reason of such declaration, (c) all Events of Default and
Defaults, other than non-payment of amounts that have become due solely by reason of such

right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice such holder’s
rights, powers or remedies. No right, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement or by any

 

- 29 -

 

Note upon any holder thereof shall be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy referred
to herein or therein or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.

holder of each Note on demand such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover all costs and
expenses of such holder incurred in any enforcement or collection under this Section 12, including,
without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements.

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

provided, that if necessary to enable the registration of transfer by a holder of its entire
holding of Notes, one Note may be in a denomination of less than $100,000, provided, further, that
no holder shall transfer (other than to a Subsidiary or other Affiliate of such holder) Notes if
such transfer causes such holder, its Subsidiaries and other Affiliates of such holder, taken as a
whole, to own less than $1,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Notes (unless such transfer
causes such holder, its Subsidiaries and other Affiliates of such holder, taken as a whole, to
Dispose of all the Notes owned by any of them).

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

within ten Business Days thereafter, the Company at its own expense shall execute and deliver, in
lieu thereof, a new Note, dated and bearing interest from the date to which interest shall have
been paid on such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or dated the date of such lost, stolen,

at the address specified for such purpose below such Purchaser’s name in Schedule A, or by
such other method or at such other address as such Purchaser shall have from time to time specified

designated by the Company pursuant to Section 14.1. Prior to any sale or other disposition of any
Note held by a Purchaser or its nominee, such Purchaser will, at its election, either endorse
thereon the amount of principal paid thereon and the last date to which interest has been paid

holder of a Note, regardless of any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of such

instrument delivered by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed
representations and warranties of the Company under this

 

- 32 -

agreement and understanding between each Purchaser and the Company and supersede all prior
agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof.

Section 17.1. Requirements.

This Agreement and the Notes may be amended, and the observance of any term hereof or thereof
may be waived (either retroactively or prospectively), with (and only with) the written consent of
the Company and the Required Holders, except that (a) no amendment or waiver of any of the

the time outstanding affected thereby, (i) subject to the provisions of Section 12 relating to

Section 17.2. Solicitation of Holders of Notes.

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

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

(c) Consent in Contemplation of Transfer. Any consent made pursuant to this Section 17 by a
holder of Notes that has transferred or has agreed to transfer, or accepted an offer to prepay, its
Notes to the Company or any Restricted Person and has provided or has agreed to provide such

effect except solely as to such holder, and any amendments effected or waivers granted or to be
effected or granted that would not have been or would not be so effected or granted but for

or similar conditions) shall be void and of no force or effect except solely as to such holder.

Section 17.3. Binding Effect, Etc.

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

Section 17.4. Notes Held by Company, Etc.

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

overnight delivery service (charges prepaid), or (b) by registered or certified mail with return

and other information previously or hereafter furnished to any Purchaser, may be reproduced by such
Purchaser by any photographic, photostatic, electronic, digital, or other similar process and such
Purchaser may destroy any original document so reproduced. The Company agrees and stipulates that,
to the extent permitted by applicable Law, any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as
the original itself in any judicial or administrative proceeding (whether or not the original is in
existence and whether or not such reproduction was made by such Purchaser in the regular course of
business) and any enlargement, facsimile or further reproduction of such reproduction shall
likewise be admissible in evidence. This Section 19 shall not prohibit the Company or any other
holder of Notes from contesting any such reproduction to the same extent that it could contest the
original, or from introducing evidence to demonstrate the inaccuracy of any such reproduction.

Section 20. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.

For the purposes of this Section 20, “Confidential Information” means information delivered to
any Purchaser by or on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with the
transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement that is proprietary in nature
and that was clearly marked or labeled or otherwise adequately identified (provided, however, that
any financial projections contained in any documents or material delivered to any Purchaser shall
be deemed confidential regardless of whether they are clearly marked or labeled as such) when
received by such Purchaser as being confidential information of the Company or such Subsidiary,
provided that such term does not include information that (a) was publicly known or otherwise known
to such Purchaser prior to the time of such disclosure, (b) subsequently becomes publicly known
through no act or omission by such Purchaser or any person acting on such Purchaser’s behalf, (c)
otherwise becomes known to such Purchaser other than through disclosure by the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries or (d) constitutes financial statements delivered to such Purchaser under Section
7.1 that are otherwise publicly available. Each Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of
such Confidential Information in accordance with procedures adopted by such Purchaser in good faith
to protect confidential information of third parties delivered to such Purchaser, provided that
such Purchaser may deliver or disclose Confidential Information to (i) its directors, officers,
employees, agents, attorneys and affiliates (to the extent such disclosure reasonably relates to
the administration of the investment represented by its Notes), (ii) its financial advisors and
other professional advisors who agree to hold confidential the Confidential Information
substantially in accordance with the terms of this Section 20, (iii) any other holder of any Note,
(iv) any Institutional Investor to which it sells or offers to sell such Note or any part thereof
or any participation therein (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such
Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this Section 20), (v) any Person from
which it offers to purchase any security of the Company (if such Person has agreed in writing prior
to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this Section 20),
(vi) any federal or state regulatory authority having jurisdiction over such Purchaser, (vii) the
NAIC or the SVO or, in each case, any similar organization, or any nationally recognized rating
agency that requires access to information

 

- 35 -

 

about such Purchaser’s investment portfolio, or (viii) any other Person to which such delivery
or disclosure may be necessary or appropriate (w) to effect compliance with any law, rule,
regulation or order applicable to such Purchaser, (x) in response to any subpoena or other legal
process, (y) in connection with any litigation to which such Purchaser is a party or (z) if an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the extent such Purchaser may reasonably
determine such delivery and disclosure to be necessary or appropriate in the enforcement or for the
protection of the rights and remedies under such Purchaser’s Notes and this Agreement. Each holder
of a Note, by its acceptance of a Note, will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to be
entitled to the benefits of this Section 20 as though it were a party to this Agreement. On
reasonable request by the Company in connection with the delivery to any holder of a Note of
information required to be delivered to such holder under this Agreement or requested by such
holder (other than a holder that is a party to this Agreement or its nominee), such holder will
enter into an agreement with the Company embodying the provisions of this Section 20.

Section 21. SUBSTITUTION OF PURCHASER.

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

Section 22. MISCELLANEOUS.

Section 22.1. Successors and Assigns.

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

Section 22.2. Payments Due on Non-Business Days.

Anything in this Agreement or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding (but without limiting
the requirement in Section 8.6 that the notice of any optional prepayment specify a Business Day as
the date fixed for such prepayment), any payment of principal of or Make-Whole Amount or interest
on any Note that is due on a date other than a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding
Business Day without including the additional days elapsed in the computation of the interest
payable on such next succeeding Business Day; provided that if the maturity date of any Note is a
date other than a Business Day, the payment otherwise due on

 

- 36 -

 

such maturity date shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and shall include the
additional days elapsed in the computation of interest payable on such next succeeding Business
Day.

Section 22.3. Accounting Terms.

All accounting terms used herein which are not expressly defined in this Agreement have the
meanings respectively given to them in accordance with GAAP. Except as otherwise specifically
provided herein, (i) all computations made pursuant to this Agreement shall be made in accordance
with GAAP, and (ii) all financial statements shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Section 22.4. Severability.

Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall,
as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability
without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability
in any jurisdiction shall (to the full extent permitted by Law) not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 22.5. Construction, Etc.

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

For the avoidance of doubt, all Schedules and Exhibits attached to this Agreement shall be
deemed to be a part hereof.

Section 22.6. Counterparts.

The City of New York, over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Agreement or the Notes. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the Company and each of
the Purchasers, irrevocably waives and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or
otherwise, any claim that it is not subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, any objection
that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding
brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any
such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

(b) The Company consents to process being served by or on behalf of any holder of Notes in any
suit, action or proceeding of the nature referred to in Section 22.8(a) by mailing a copy thereof

nature referred to in Section 22.8(a) by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or
any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to it at its
address specified in Section 18 or at such other address of which the Company shall then have been
notified pursuant to said Section. The Company and each of the Purchasers agree that such
respective service upon receipt (i) shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process
upon it in any such suit, action or proceeding and (ii) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable Law, be taken and held to be valid personal service upon and personal delivery to it.
Notices hereunder shall be conclusively presumed received as evidenced by a delivery receipt
furnished by the United States Postal Service or any reputable commercial delivery service.

(c) Nothing in this Section 22.8 shall affect the right of any holder of a Note to serve
process in any manner permitted by Law, or limit any right that the holders of any of the Notes may
have to bring proceedings against the Company in the courts of any appropriate jurisdiction or to
enforce in any lawful manner a judgment obtained in one jurisdiction in any other jurisdiction.

(d) The parties hereto hereby waive trial by jury in any action brought on or with respect to
this Agreement, the Notes or any other document executed in connection herewith or therewith.

payment to the prior due and punctual payment in full of all obligations of the Company now or
