Attention: Jessica Richmond

Dear Sirs:

Reference is made to the (i) Mortgage Loan Purchase and Servicing Agreement, dated as of
December 19, 2006 (the “Purchase Agreement”), among New Century Mortgage Corporation, as
seller and servicer, St. Andrew Funding Trust, as purchaser, and New Century Financial Corporation,
as performance guarantor, and (ii) Security Agreement, dated as of December 19, 2006 (the
“Security Agreement”), between the Purchaser and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as
Collateral Agent, each as may be amended, modified or supplemented. Capitalized terms used and not
defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Security Agreement.

Pursuant to Section 11.2 of the Purchase Agreement, if a Termination Event described
in (d), (h), or (k) through (r) of Section 11.2 of the
Purchase Agreement occurs, or a Termination Event described in (e)(ii) of Section 11.2 of
the Purchase Agreement occurs and any Swap Counterparty gives the written notice to the Purchaser
described therein, or a Security Agreement Event of Default described in clauses (f),
(m), or (o) through (s) of Section 7.01 of the Security Agreement
occurs, or an Indenture Event of Default described in clauses (f), (m), or
(o) through (s) of Section 9.1 of the Indenture occurs, the Servicer shall
use its best efforts to sell all non-Delinquent Loans and non-Defaulted Loans within sixty (60)
days of the date on which such Termination Event, Security Agreement Event of Default or Indenture
Event of Default occurred. In the event that all non-Delinquent Loans and non-Defaulted Loans have
not been so sold by such sixtieth (60th) day, the Collateral Agent shall hold an auction (a
“Termination Event Auction”) of the remaining non-Delinquent Loans and non-Defaulted Loans
for settlement not later than the seventy-fifth (75th) day following the date on which such
Termination Event, Security Agreement Event of Default, or Indenture Event of Default occurred (the
“Final Settlement Date”). Additionally, pursuant to Section 4.1 of the Purchase
Agreement, in the event the principal of any Notes becomes due and payable (a “Repayment
Event”), whether pursuant to the terms thereof or by the occurrence of a Security Agreement
Event of Default or Indenture Event of Default or optional repurchase, maturity or otherwise, the
Servicer is required to arrange for the sale of the non-Delinquent Loans and non-Defaulted Loans at
such times and in such manner so that the proceeds of the sale, together with amounts received by
the Purchaser in connection with each Interest Rate Swap, are available to pay amounts due and
owing on such Notes on the dates the Notes are required to be repaid (each, a “Repayment
Date”). Finally, pursuant to Section 2.8 of the Purchase Agreement, if a Junior Loan
Exposure Trigger Event occurs, the Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to sell all
Junior Loans within sixty (60) days of the date on which such Junior Loan Exposure Trigger Event
occurred. In the event that all Junior Loans have not been so sold, on such sixtieth (60th) day
the Collateral Agent shall hold an auction (a “Junior Loan Exposure Trigger Event Auction”)
of the remaining Junior Loans for settlement not later than the seventy-fifth (75th) day following
the date on which such Junior Loan Exposure Trigger Event occurred (the “Junior Loan Exposure
Final Settlement Date”).

In connection with any such Termination Event Auction, Repayment Event, or Junior Loan
Exposure Trigger Event Auction, Deutsche Bank AG, New York Branch (the “Bank”), the
Servicer, the Collateral Agent and the Purchaser agree as follows:

(a) With respect to the Termination Event Auction:

(i) the Bank shall participate in a Termination Event Auction and agrees to make a
binding bid (the “Bid”) for all non-Delinquent Loans and non-Defaulted Loans. The
amount of the Bid shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Bank and such Bid shall
remain in effect until the Final Settlement Date; and

(ii) if the Collateral Agent accepts the Bid, the Collateral Agent shall notify the
Bank and the Purchaser of such acceptance and the principal balance of all non-Delinquent
Loans and non-Defaulted Loans to be purchased by the Bank (which amount may be all or a
portion of the principal balance of all non-Delinquent Loans and non-Defaulted Loans) in
writing not later than two (2) Business Days prior to the Final Settlement Date. Any such
purchase of all non-Delinquent Loans and non-Defaulted Loans by the Bank shall be settled on
or prior to the Final Settlement Date.

(b) With respect to any Repayment Event, if requested by the Collateral Agent:

(i) the Bank agrees to make a Bid for the principal balance of all non-Delinquent Loans
and non-Defaulted Loans specified by the Collateral Agent. The amount of the Bid shall be
determined in the sole discretion of the Bank and such Bid shall remain in effect until such
Repayment Date; and

(ii) if the Collateral Agent accepts the Bid, the Collateral Agent shall notify the
Bank and the Purchaser of such acceptance and the principal balance of all non-Delinquent
Loans and non-Defaulted Loans to be purchased by the Bank (which amount may be all or a
portion of the principal balance of all non-Delinquent Loans and non-Defaulted Loans) in
writing on or prior to such Repayment Date. Any such purchase of the non-Delinquent Loans
and non-Defaulted Loans by the Bank shall be settled on or prior to such Repayment Date.

(c) With respect to the Junior Loan Exposure Trigger Event Auction:

(i) the Bank shall participate in a Junior Loan Exposure Trigger Event Auction and
agrees to make a binding bid (the “Bid”) for all Junior Loans which, as of the
auction date, are non-Defaulted or non-Delinquent Loans. The amount of the Bid shall be
determined in the sole discretion of the Bank and such Bid shall remain in effect until the
Junior Loan Exposure Final Settlement Date, subject only to changes in a relevant index rate
(which rate shall be indicated in the Bid) until accepted; and

(ii) if the Issuer accepts the Bid, the Issuer shall notify the Bank and the Collateral
Agent of such acceptance and the principal balance of Junior Loans to be purchased by the
Bank (which amount may be all or a portion of the principal balance of the Junior Loans) in
writing not later than two (2) Business Days prior to the Junior Loan Exposure Final
Settlement Date. Any such purchase of Junior Loans by the Bank shall be settled on or prior
to the Junior Loan Exposure Final Settlement Date;

(d) If the Bank’s rating assigned by any Rating Agency is either downgraded or withdrawn from
the required level of a “P-1” rating from Moody’s, the Bank shall give notice of such downgrade or
withdrawal to the Purchaser within three days of notice thereof. The Bank shall use its best
efforts to assist the Purchaser in finding a replacement rated bidder to assume the Bank’s
obligations under this agreement.

This agreement shall remain in full force and effect until all the Notes have been paid in
full. This agreement and the Bank’s rights and obligations hereunder may not be assigned or
otherwise transferred by the Bank, whether by operation of law or otherwise, unless (i) the
Purchaser, each Swap Counterparty, the Servicer and the Collateral Agent consent in writing to such
assignment, (ii) the assignee has expressly assumed the obligations of the Bank hereunder by
written instrument in form and substance satisfactory to the Purchaser, each Swap Counterparty, the
Servicer and the Collateral Agent and (iii) Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to such
assignment has been received by the Purchaser.

In consideration of the above agreement the Purchaser shall pay the Bank such fee as shall be
separately agreed between the Purchaser and the Bank.

This agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York and may be
executed in counterparts.

institutions as may from time to time become parties to this Credit Agreement (the “Lenders” and
each a “Lender”), HSBC BANK USA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association, as a Lender,
administrative agent for the Lenders hereunder (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”), sole
lead arranger and sole book runner, and WACHOVIA BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION and JPMORGAN CHASE

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, the Borrowers have requested that the Lenders make loans and other financial
accommodations to the Borrowers in the amount of $100,000,000, as more particularly described
herein;

WHEREAS, the Lenders have agreed to make such loans and other financial accommodations to the
Borrowers on the terms and conditions contained herein; and

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants contained herein,
the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I.

DEFINITIONS AND OTHER PROVISIONS

Section 1.1 Defined Terms.

As used in this Credit Agreement, terms defined in the preamble to this Credit Agreement have
the meanings therein indicated, and the following terms have the following meanings:

“Accessible Borrowing Availability” shall mean, as of any date of determination, the
amount that the Borrowers are able to borrow on such date under the Revolving Committed Amount
without a Default or Event of Default occurring or existing after giving pro forma effect to such
borrowing.

“Account Designation Letter” shall mean the Notice of Account Designation Letter dated
as of the Closing Date from the Company to the Administrative Agent substantially in the form
attached hereto as Schedule 1.1-1.

“Acquisition” shall mean the acquisition of all of the capital stock of the Bowne
Global Solutions division of Bowne & Co., Inc. by the Company pursuant to that certain Merger
Agreement, dated as of June 27, 2006, by and among the Company and Bowne & Co., Inc., a Delaware
corporation, and Bowne of New York, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company.

“Additional Credit Party” shall mean each Person that becomes a US Guarantor by
execution of a Joinder Agreement in accordance with Section 5.10.

“Administrative Agent” shall have the meaning set forth in the first paragraph of this
Credit Agreement and any successors and/or assigns in such capacity.

“Administrative Agent’s Office” shall mean, with respect to any currency, the
Administrative Agent’s address and, as appropriate, account as set forth in Section 9.2 with
respect to such currency, or such other address or account with respect to such currency as the
Administrative Agent may from time to time notify to the Company and the Lenders.

“Administrative Details Form” shall mean, with respect to any Lender, a document
containing such Lender’s contact information for purposes of notices provided under this Credit
Agreement and account details for purposes of payments made to such Lender under this Credit
Agreement.

“Affected Lender” shall have the meaning set forth in Section 2.15(a).

“Affiliate” shall mean as to any Person, any other Person that, directly or
indirectly, is in control of, is controlled by, or is under common control with, such Person. For
purposes of this definition, a Person shall be deemed to be “controlled by” a Person if such Person
possesses, directly or indirectly, power either (a) to vote 10% or more of the securities having
ordinary voting power for the election of directors of such Person or (b) to direct or cause the
direction of the management and policies of such Person whether by contract or otherwise.

“Alternate Base Rate” shall mean, for any day, a rate per annum equal to the greater
of (a) the Prime Rate in effect on such day and (b) the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect on
such day plus 1/2 of 1%. For purposes hereof: “Prime Rate” shall mean, at any time, the rate of
interest per annum publicly announced from time to time by HSBC at its principal office in New
York, NY as its prime rate. Each change in the Prime Rate shall be effective as of the opening of
business on the day such change in the Prime Rate occurs. The parties hereto acknowledge that the
rate announced publicly by HSBC as its Prime Rate is an index or base rate and shall not
necessarily be its lowest or best rate charged to its customers or other banks; and “Federal Funds
Effective Rate” shall mean, for any day, the weighted average of the rates on overnight federal
funds transactions with members of the Federal Reserve System arranged by federal funds brokers, as
published on the next succeeding Business Day by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, or, if such
rate is not so published on the next succeeding Business Day, the average of the quotations for the
day of such transactions received by the Administrative Agent from three federal funds brokers of
recognized standing selected by it. If for any reason the Administrative Agent shall have
determined (which determination shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error) that it is
unable to ascertain the Federal Funds Effective Rate, including the inability or failure of the
Administrative Agent to obtain sufficient quotations in accordance with the terms above, the
Alternate Base Rate shall be determined without regard to clause (b) of the first sentence of this
definition until the circumstances giving rise to such inability no longer exist. Any change in
the Alternate Base Rate due to a change in the Prime Rate or the Federal Funds Effective Rate shall
be effective on the opening of business on the date of such change.

“Alternate Base Rate Loans” shall mean Loans that bear interest at an interest rate
based on the Alternate Base Rate.

“Applicable Percentage” shall mean, for any day, the rate per annum set forth below
opposite the applicable level then in effect, it being understood that the Applicable Percentage
for (a) Revolving Loans that are LIBOR Rate Loans shall be the percentage set forth under the
column “LIBOR Rate Margin for Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Fee”, (b) the Letter of Credit
Fee shall be the percentage set forth under the column “LIBOR Rate Margin for Revolving Loans and
Letter of Credit Fee”, (c) Revolving Loans that are Alternate Base Rate Loans shall be the
percentage set forth under the column “Alternate Base Rate Margin for Revolving Loans” and (d) the
Commitment Fee shall be the percentage set forth under the column “Commitment Fee”:

The Applicable Percentage shall, in each case, be determined and adjusted quarterly on
the date five (5) Business Days after the date on which the Administrative Agent has received from
the Company the quarterly and annual financial information and the certifications required to be
delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in accordance with the provisions of Sections
5.1(a), 5.1(b) and 5.2(a) pursuant to which the Company shall notify the Administrative Agent of a
change in the applicable pricing level based on the financial information contained therein (each
an “Interest Determination Date”). Subject to the last sentence of this definition, such
Applicable Percentage shall be effective from such Interest Determination Date until the next such
Interest Determination Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the initial Applicable Percentage
for Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Fees shall be set at Level II until the Interest
Determination Date occurring after the delivery of the officer’s compliance certificate pursuant to
Section 5.2(a) for the quarter ended December 31, 2006 and (ii) the initial Commitment Fee shall be
set at Level II until the Interest Determination Date occurring after the delivery of the officer’s
compliance certificate pursuant to Section 5.2(a) for the quarter ended December 31, 2006. If the
Company shall fail to provide the quarterly and annual financial information and certifications in
accordance with the provisions of Sections 5.1(a), 5.1(b) and 5.2(a), the Applicable Percentage
shall, on the date five (5) Business Days after the date by which the Company was so required to
provide such financial information and certifications to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders,
be based on Level I until such time as such information and certifications are provided, whereupon
the Level shall be determined by the then current Leverage Ratio.

“Applicable Time” shall mean, with respect to any borrowings and payments in Foreign
Currencies, the local times in the place of settlement for such Foreign Currencies as may be
determined by the Administrative Agent to be necessary for timely settlement on the relevant date

is a party, that it and its counsel reviewed and participated in the preparation and negotiation
hereof and thereof and that any rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are to be
resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation hereof or thereof.

Section 1.5 Exchange Rates; Currency Equivalents.

(a) The Administrative Agent shall determine the Spot Rates as of each Revaluation
Date to be used for calculating the Dollar Amounts of Extensions of Credit and amounts
outstanding hereunder denominated in Foreign Currencies. Such Spot Rates shall become
effective as of such Revaluation Date and shall be the Spot Rates employed in converting
any amounts between the applicable currencies until the next Revaluation Date to occur.
Except for purposes of financial statements delivered by the Company hereunder or
calculating financial covenants hereunder or except as otherwise provided herein, the
applicable amount of any currency for purposes of the Credit Documents shall be such Dollar
Amount as so determined by the Administrative Agent.

(b) Wherever in this Credit Agreement in connection with an Extension of Credit,
conversion, continuation or prepayment of a Loan, an amount, such as a required minimum or
multiple amount, is expressed in Dollars, but such Extension of Credit or Loan is
denominated in a Foreign Currency, such amount shall be the relevant Foreign Currency
Equivalent of such Dollar Amount (rounded to the nearest 1,000 units of such Foreign
Currency), as determined by the Administrative Agent.

	 	 	 	Section 1.6 Redenomination of Certain Foreign Currencies and Computation of Dollar
Amounts.

(a) Each obligation of the Borrowers to make a payment denominated in the National
Currency Unit of any member state of the European Union that adopts the Euro as its lawful
currency after the date hereof shall be redenominated into Euro at the time of such
adoption (in accordance with the EMU Legislation). If, in relation to the currency of any
such member state, the basis of accrual of interest expressed in this Credit Agreement in
respect of that currency shall be inconsistent with any convention or practice in the
London interbank market for the basis of accrual of interest in respect of the Euro, such
expressed basis shall be replaced by such convention or practice with effect from the date
on which such member state adopts the Euro as its lawful currency; provided that if
any Extension of Credit in the currency of such member state is outstanding immediately
prior to such date, such replacement shall take effect, with respect to such Extension of
Credit, at the end of the then current Interest Period.

(b) Each provision of this Credit Agreement shall be subject to such reasonable
changes of construction as the Administrative Agent may from time to time specify to be
appropriate to reflect the adoption of the Euro by any member state of the European Union
and any relevant market conventions or practices relating to the Euro.

(c) References herein to minimum Dollar Amounts and integral multiples stated in
Dollars, where they shall also be applicable to Foreign Currency, shall be deemed to refer
to approximate Foreign Currency Equivalents.

ARTICLE II.

THE LOANS; AMOUNT AND TERMS

Section 2.1 Revolving Loans.

(a) Revolving Commitment. During the Commitment Period, subject to the terms and
conditions hereof, each Revolving Lender severally agrees to make revolving credit loans in
Dollars and in Foreign Currencies (the “Revolving Loans”) to the Borrowers from time to
time in an aggregate principal Dollar Amount (determined as of the most recent Revaluation
Date) equal to its Revolving Commitment for the purposes hereinafter set forth;
provided, however, that (i) with regard to each Revolving Lender individually, the
sum of the aggregate principal Dollar Amount of such Revolving Lender’s outstanding
Revolving Loans plus such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of outstanding
Swingline Loans plus such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of LOC
Obligations shall not exceed such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment, (ii) with regard
to the Revolving Lenders collectively, the sum of the aggregate principal Dollar Amount
(determined as of the most recent Revaluation Date) of outstanding Revolving Loans plus
outstanding Swingline Loans plus outstanding LOC Obligations shall not exceed the Revolving
Committed Amount then in effect, (iii) the aggregate principal Dollar Amount (determined as
of the most recent Revaluation Date) of outstanding Revolving Loans that are Foreign
Currency Loans, plus outstanding LOC Obligations with respect to Letters of Credit
denominated in a Foreign Currency, shall not exceed $25,000,000 and (iv) the aggregate
principal Dollar Amount of Revolving Loans outstanding to the Foreign Borrower not exceed
$15,000,000. Revolving Loans may consist of Alternate Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Rate Loans,
or a combination thereof, as the Company may request, and may be repaid and reborrowed in
accordance with the provisions hereof; provided, however, Revolving Loans made on
the Closing Date or any of the three Business Days following the Closing Date may only
consist of Alternate Base Rate Loans unless the Company delivers a Funding Indemnity Letter
to the Administrative Agent at least three Business Days (with respect to Revolving Loans
denominated in Dollars) or four Business Days (with respect to Revolving Loans denominated
in Foreign Currencies) prior to the Closing Date. Revolving Loans that are Foreign
Currency Loans shall consist only of LIBOR Rate Loans.

(b) Revolving Loan Borrowings.

(i) Notice of Borrowing. The Company shall request a Revolving Loan
borrowing by delivering a Notice of Borrowing (or telephone notice promptly
confirmed in writing by delivery of a Notice of Borrowing, which delivery may be by
fax) to the Administrative Agent (A) not later than 11:00 A.M. EST (I) on the
Business Day prior to the date of requested borrowing in the case of Alternate Base
Rate Loans and (II) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the requested
borrowing in the case of LIBOR Rate Loans and (B) not later than 10:00 A.M. (London,
England time) four Business Days prior to the date of the requested borrowing in the
case of Foreign Currency Loans. Each such request for borrowing shall be
irrevocable and shall specify (1) the applicable Borrower, (2) that a Revolving Loan
is requested, (3) the date of the requested borrowing (which shall be a Business
Day), (4) the aggregate principal amount to be borrowed, (5) the applicable currency
in which the Revolving Loan is to be funded, (6) if the Revolving Loan is to be made
in Dollars, whether the borrowing shall be comprised of Alternate Base Rate Loans,
LIBOR Rate Loans or a combination thereof, (7) if the Revolving Loan is to be made
in a Foreign Currency, that such Revolving Loan shall be comprised solely of LIBOR
Rate Loans and (8) if LIBOR Rate Loans are requested, the Interest Period(s)
therefor. If the Company shall fail to specify in any such Notice of Borrowing (w)
the applicable Borrower, then such notice shall be deemed to be a request for a
Revolving Loan to be made to the Company, (x) an applicable Interest Period in the
case of a LIBOR Rate Loan, then such notice shall be deemed to be a request for an
Interest Period of one month, (y) the type of Revolving Loan requested in the case
of a Revolving Loan to be made in Dollars, then such notice shall be deemed to be a
request for an Alternate Base Rate Loan hereunder or (z) the currency for such
Revolving Loan, then such Revolving Loan shall be made in Dollars. The
Administrative Agent shall give notice to each Revolving Lender promptly upon
receipt of each Notice of Borrowing, the contents thereof and each such Revolving
Lender’s share thereof.

(ii) Minimum Amounts. Each Revolving Loan which is an Alternate Base
Rate Loan shall be in a minimum aggregate Dollar Amount (determined as of the most
recent Revaluation Date) of $1,000,000 and in integral multiples of $500,000 in
excess thereof (or the remaining amount of the Revolving Committed Amount, if less).
Each Revolving Loan which is an LIBOR Rate Loan shall be in a minimum aggregate
Dollar Amount (determined as of the most recent Revaluation Date) of $1,000,000 and
in integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof (or the remaining amount of the
Revolving Committed Amount, if less).

(iii) Advances. Each Revolving Lender will make its Revolving
Commitment Percentage of each Revolving Loan borrowing available to the
Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Borrower, in Dollars or the
applicable Foreign Currency and in funds immediately available to the Administrative
Agent, at the Administrative Agent’s Office by (A) 1:00 P.M. EST on the date
specified in the applicable Notice of Borrowing in the case of any Revolving Loan
denominated in Dollars and (B) the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative
Agent in the case of any Revolving Loan that is a Foreign Currency Loan. Such
borrowing will then be made available to the applicable Borrower by the
Administrative Agent by crediting the account of the applicable Borrower on the
books of the Administrative Agent’s Office with the aggregate of the amounts made
available to the Administrative Agent by the Revolving Lenders and in like funds as
received by the Administrative Agent.

(iv) Foreign Funding Subsidiaries. Each Revolving Lender (a
“Designating Revolving Lender”) shall have the right to designate a
Subsidiary or Affiliate (a “Designated Funding Subsidiary”) to fund any
Revolving Loan to the Foreign Borrower; provided that (i) the Designated
Funding Subsidiary shall become a Lender under this Credit Agreement pursuant to
documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (ii) the
Designating Revolving Lender shall be responsible for funding its Revolving
Commitment Percentage of any Revolving Loan to the Foreign Borrower to the extent
such Designated Funding Subsidiary fails to fund such Revolving Loan, (iii) the
Credit Parties, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal with
the Designating Revolving Lender rather than the Designated Funding Subsidiary for
all purposes of this Credit Agreement, including for purposes of any notification to
the Revolving Lenders (other than Notices of Borrowing and Notices of
Conversion/Extension, which shall be sent to any Designated Funding Subsidiary to
the extent applicable), (iv) any consent given by such Designating Revolving Lender
with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification of any term of a Credit
Document shall be deemed given on behalf of itself and the Designated Funding
Subsidiary and (v) unless otherwise directed in writing by such Designating
Revolving Lender, any payments with respect to a Revolving Loan funded by the
Designated Funding Subsidiary shall be made to such Designated Funding Subsidiary.

(c) Repayment. Subject to the terms of this Credit Agreement, Revolving Loans
may be borrowed, repaid and reborrowed during the Commitment Period. The principal amount
of all Revolving Loans shall be due and payable in full on the Revolving Commitment
Termination Date, unless accelerated sooner pursuant to Section 7.2.

(d) Interest. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.9, Revolving Loans shall
bear interest as follows:

(i) Alternate Base Rate Loans. During such periods as Revolving Loans
shall be comprised of Alternate Base Rate Loans, each such Alternate Base Rate Loan
shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the sum of the Alternate Base Rate
plus the Applicable Percentage, if any; and

(ii) LIBOR Rate Loans. During such periods as Revolving Loans shall be
comprised of LIBOR Rate Loans, each such LIBOR Rate Loan shall bear interest at a
per annum rate equal to the LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Percentage.

Interest on Revolving Loans shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment
Date.

(e) Revolving Notes; Covenant to Pay. Each Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment
shall be evidenced, upon such Revolving Lender’s request, by duly executed promissory notes
of the Borrowers to such Revolving Lender in substantially the form of Schedule
2.1(e). The Borrowers covenant and agree to pay the Revolving Loans in accordance with
the terms of this Credit Agreement and the Revolving Note or Revolving Notes.

Section 2.2 Letter of Credit Subfacility.

(a) Issuance. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and of the LOC Documents, if
any, and any other terms and conditions which the Issuing Lender may reasonably require,
during the Commitment Period the Issuing Lender shall issue, and the Revolving Lenders
shall participate in, Letters of Credit for the account of the Company from time to time
upon request in a form acceptable to the Issuing Lender; provided, however, that
(i) the aggregate Dollar Amount of LOC Obligations shall not at any time exceed FIVE
MILLION DOLLARS ($5,000,000) (the “LOC Committed Amount”), (ii) the sum of the aggregate
principal Dollar Amount (determined as of the most recent Revaluation Date) of outstanding
Revolving Loans plus outstanding Swingline Loans plus outstanding LOC Obligations shall not
at any time exceed the Revolving Committed Amount then in effect, (iii) all Letters of
Credit shall be denominated in Dollars or a Foreign Currency, (iv) the aggregate principal
Dollar Amount (determined as of the most recent Revaluation Date) of outstanding Revolving
Loans that are Foreign Currency Loans, plus outstanding LOC Obligations with
respect to Letters of Credit denominated in a Foreign Currency, shall not exceed
$25,000,000 and (v) Letters of Credit shall be issued for lawful corporate purposes and may
be issued as standby letters of credit, including in connection with workers’ compensation
and other insurance programs, and trade letters of credit. Except as otherwise expressly
agreed upon by all the Revolving Lenders, no Letter of Credit shall have an original expiry
date more than twelve (12) months from the date of issuance; provided, however, so
long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and subject to the
other terms and conditions to the issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder, the expiry dates
of Letters of Credit may be extended annually or periodically from time to time on the
request of the Company or by operation of the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit to a
date not more than twelve (12) months from the date of extension; provided,
further, that no Letter of Credit, as originally issued or as extended, shall have an
expiry date extending beyond the date that is fifteen (15) days prior to the Revolving
Commitment Termination Date. Each Letter of Credit shall comply with the related LOC
Documents. The issuance and expiry date of each Letter of Credit shall be a Business Day.
Any Letters of Credit issued hereunder shall be in a minimum original face amount
acceptable to the Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent. The Company’s reimbursement
obligations in respect of each Existing Letter of Credit, and each Revolving Lender’s
participation obligations in connection therewith, shall be governed by the terms of this
Credit Agreement.

(b) Notice and Reports. The request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit
shall be submitted to the Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent at least five (5)
Business Days prior to the requested date of issuance. Each Issuing Lender will provide to
the Administrative Agent each month and otherwise promptly upon the request of the
Administrative Agent, for dissemination to the Revolving Lenders, a detailed report
specifying the Letters of Credit which are then issued and outstanding and any activity
with respect thereto which may have occurred since the date of any prior report, and
including therein, among other things, the account party, the beneficiary, the face amount,
expiry date as well as any payments or expirations which may have occurred. The Issuing
Lender will further provide to the Administrative Agent promptly upon request copies of the
Letters of Credit. The Issuing Lender will provide to the Administrative Agent promptly
upon request a summary report of the nature and extent of LOC Obligations then outstanding.

(c) Participations. Each Revolving Lender, (i) on the Closing Date with
respect to each Existing Letter of Credit and (ii) upon issuance of any other Letter of
Credit, shall be deemed to have purchased without recourse a risk participation from the
Issuing Lender in such Letter of Credit and the obligations arising thereunder and any
collateral relating thereto, in each case in an amount equal to its Revolving Commitment
Percentage of the obligations under such Letter of Credit and shall absolutely,
unconditionally and irrevocably assume, as primary obligor and not as surety, and be
obligated to pay to the Issuing Lender therefor and discharge when due, its Revolving
Commitment Percentage of the obligations arising under such Letter of Credit. Without
limiting the scope and nature of each Revolving Lender’s participation in any Letter of
Credit, to the extent that the Issuing Lender has not been reimbursed as required hereunder
or under any LOC Document, each such Revolving Lender shall pay to the Issuing Lender, in
Dollars, the Dollar Amount of its Revolving Commitment Percentage of such unreimbursed
drawing pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of subsection (d) hereof. The
obligation of each Revolving Lender to so reimburse the Issuing Lender shall be absolute
and unconditional and shall not be affected by the occurrence of a Default, an Event of
Default or any other occurrence or event. Any such reimbursement shall not relieve or
otherwise impair the obligation of the Company to reimburse the Issuing Lender under any
Letter of Credit, together with interest as hereinafter provided.

(d) Reimbursement. In the event of any drawing under any Letter of Credit,
the Issuing Lender will promptly notify the Company and the Administrative Agent. The
Company shall reimburse the Issuing Lender on the day of drawing under any Letter of Credit
(with the proceeds of a Revolving Loan obtained hereunder or otherwise), in Dollars, in the
Dollar Amount and in same day funds as provided herein or in the LOC Documents. If the
Company shall fail to reimburse the Issuing Lender as provided herein, the unreimbursed
amount of such drawing shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the Alternate Base
Rate plus the Applicable Percentage for Revolving Loans that are Alternate Base Rate Loans
plus two percent (2%) for so long as such amount shall be unreimbursed. Unless the Company
shall immediately notify the Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent of its intent to
otherwise reimburse the Issuing Lender, the Company shall be deemed to have requested a LOC
Mandatory Borrowing, in Dollars, in the Dollar Amount of the drawing as provided in
subsection (e) hereof, the proceeds of which will be used to satisfy the Reimbursement
Obligations. Subject to the terms of Section 2.19, the Company’s Reimbursement Obligations
hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under all circumstances irrespective of any
rights of set off, counterclaim or defense to payment the Company may claim or have against
the Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the beneficiary of the Letter of
Credit drawn upon or any other Person, including without limitation any defense based on
any failure of the Company to receive consideration or the legality, validity, regularity
or unenforceability of the Letter of Credit. The Issuing Lender will promptly notify the
other Revolving Lenders of the amount of any unreimbursed drawing and each Revolving Lender
shall promptly pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender in
Dollars and in immediately available funds, the Dollar Amount of such Revolving Lender’s
Revolving Commitment Percentage of such unreimbursed drawing. Such payment shall be made
on the day such notice is received by such Revolving Lender from the Issuing Lender if such
notice is received at or before 2:00 p.m. EST, otherwise such payment shall be made at or
before 12:00 Noon EST on the Business Day next succeeding the day such notice is received.
If such Revolving Lender does not pay such amount to the Issuing Lender in full upon such
request, such Revolving Lender shall, on demand, pay to the Administrative Agent for the
account of the Issuing Lender interest on the unpaid amount during the period from the date
of such drawing until such Revolving Lender pays such amount to the Issuing Lender in full
at a rate per annum equal to, if paid within two (2) Business Days of the date of drawing,
the Federal Funds Effective Rate and thereafter at a rate equal to the Alternate Base Rate.
Each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make such payment to the Issuing Lender, and the
right of the Issuing Lender to receive the same, shall be absolute and unconditional, shall
not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever and without regard to the termination of
this Credit Agreement or the Commitments hereunder, the existence of a Default or Event of
Default or the acceleration of the Credit Party Obligations hereunder and shall be made
without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(e) Repayment with Revolving Loans. On any day on which the Company shall
have requested, or been deemed to have requested, a Revolving Loan to reimburse a drawing
under a Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall give notice to the Revolving
Lenders that a Revolving Loan has been requested or deemed requested in connection with a
drawing under a Letter of Credit, in which case a Revolving Loan borrowing comprised
entirely of Alternate Base Rate Loans in Dollars (each such borrowing, a “LOC Mandatory
Borrowing”) shall be made (without giving effect to any termination of the Commitments
pursuant to Section 7.2) pro rata based on each Revolving Lender’s
respective Revolving Commitment Percentage (determined before giving effect to any
termination of the Commitments pursuant to Section 7.2) and the proceeds thereof shall be
paid directly to the Issuing Lender for application to the respective LOC Obligations.
Each Revolving Lender hereby irrevocably agrees to make such Revolving Loans on the day
such notice is received by the Revolving Lenders from the Administrative Agent if such
notice is received at or before 2:00 P.M. EST, otherwise such payment shall be made at or
before 12:00 Noon EST on the Business Day next succeeding the date such notice is received,
in each case notwithstanding (i) the amount of LOC Mandatory Borrowing may not
comply with the minimum amount for borrowings of Revolving Loans otherwise required
hereunder, (ii) whether any conditions specified in Section 4.2 are then satisfied, (iii)
whether a Default or an Event of Default then exists, (iv) the failure of any such request
or deemed request for Revolving Loan to be made by the time otherwise required in Section
2.1(b), (v) the date of such LOC Mandatory Borrowing, or (vi) any reduction in the
Revolving Committed Amount after any such Letter of Credit may have been drawn upon. In
the event that any LOC Mandatory Borrowing cannot for any reason be made on the date
otherwise required above (including, without limitation, as a result of the occurrence of a
Bankruptcy Event), then each such Revolving Lender hereby agrees that it shall forthwith
fund (as of the date the LOC Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, but
adjusted for any payments received from the Company on or after such date and prior to such
purchase), in Dollars, the Dollar Amount of its Participation Interests in the outstanding
LOC Obligations; provided, further, that in the event any Lender shall fail to fund
its Participation Interest on the day the LOC Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have
occurred, then the amount of such Revolving Lender’s unfunded Participation Interest
therein shall bear interest payable by such Revolving Lender to the Issuing Lender upon
demand, at the rate equal to, if paid within two (2) Business Days of such date, the
Federal Funds Effective Rate, and thereafter at a rate equal to the Alternate Base Rate.

(f) Modification, Extension. The issuance of any supplement, modification,
amendment, renewal, or extension to any Letter of Credit shall, for purposes hereof, be
treated in all respects the same as the issuance of a new Letter of Credit hereunder.

(g) ISP98 and UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Issuing Lender
and the Company when a Letter of Credit is issued, (i) the rules of “International Standby
Practices 1998,” as most recently published by the Institute of International Banking Law &
Practice at the time of issuance, shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit and (ii) the
rules of The Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as most recently
published by the International Chamber of Commerce at the time of issuance, shall apply to
each trade Letter of Credit.

(h) Conflict with LOC Documents. In the event of any conflict between this
Credit Agreement and any LOC Document (including any letter of credit application and any
LOC Documents relating to the Existing Letters of Credit), this Credit Agreement shall
control.

(i) Designation of Subsidiaries as Account Parties. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary set forth in this Credit Agreement, including without limitation Section
2.2(a), a Letter of Credit issued hereunder may contain a statement to the effect that such
Letter of Credit is issued for the account of a Subsidiary of the Company so long as such
Letter of Credit and the Issuing Lender’s issuance thereof complies with all applicable
Requirements of Law; provided that, notwithstanding such statement, the Company
shall be the actual account party for all purposes of this Credit Agreement for such Letter
of Credit and such statement shall not affect the Company’s Reimbursement Obligation
hereunder with respect to such Letter of Credit.

Section 2.3 Swingline Loan Subfacility.

(a) Swingline Commitment. During the Commitment Period, subject to the terms
and conditions hereof, the Swingline Lender, in its individual capacity, agrees to make
certain revolving credit loans in Dollars to the Company (each a “Swingline Loan” and,
collectively, the “Swingline Loans”) for the purposes hereinafter set forth;
provided, however, (i) the aggregate principal amount of Swingline Loans
outstanding at any time shall not exceed FIFTEEN MILLION DOLLARS ($15,000,000) (the
“Swingline Committed Amount”) and (ii) the sum of the aggregate principal
Dollar Amount (determined as of the most recent Revaluation Date) of outstanding Revolving
Loans plus outstanding Swingline Loans plus outstanding LOC Obligations shall not exceed
the Revolving Committed Amount. Swingline Loans hereunder may be repaid and reborrowed in
accordance with the provisions hereof.

(b) Swingline Loan Borrowings.

(i) Notice of Borrowing and Disbursement. Upon receiving a Notice of
Borrowing from the Company not later than 12:00 Noon EST on any Business Day
requesting that a Swingline Loan be made, the Swingline Lender will make Swingline
Loans which are denominated in Dollars available to the Company on the same Business
Day such request is received by the Administrative Agent. Swingline Loan borrowings
hereunder shall be made in minimum amounts of $100,000 and in integral amounts of
$100,000 in excess thereof.

(ii) Repayment of Swingline Loans. Each Swingline Loan borrowing shall
be due and payable on the Revolving Commitment Termination Date. The Swingline
Lender may, at any time, in its sole discretion, by written notice to the Company
and the Administrative Agent, demand repayment of its Swingline Loans by way of a
Revolving Loan borrowing, in which case the Company shall be deemed to have
requested a Revolving Loan borrowing comprised entirely of Alternate Base Rate Loans
in the amount of such Swingline Loans; provided, however, that, in
the following circumstances, any such deemed request shall also be deemed to have
been given one Business Day prior to each of (i) the Revolving Commitment
Termination Date, (ii) the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event, (iii) upon acceleration
of the Credit Party Obligations hereunder, whether on account of a Bankruptcy Event
or any other Event of Default, and (iv) the exercise of remedies in accordance with
the provisions of Section 7.2 hereof (each such Revolving Loan borrowing made on
account of any such deemed request therefor as provided herein being hereinafter
referred to as “Swingline Mandatory Borrowing”). Each Revolving
Lender hereby irrevocably agrees to make such Revolving Loans promptly upon any such
request or deemed request on account of each Mandatory Swingline Borrowing in the
amount and in the manner specified in the preceding sentence on the date such notice
is received by the Revolving Lenders from the Administrative Agent if such notice is
received at or before 2:00 P.M. EST, otherwise such payment shall be made at or
before 12:00 EST Noon on the Business Day next succeeding the date such notice is
received notwithstanding (I) the amount of Swingline Mandatory Borrowing
may not comply with the minimum amount for borrowings of Revolving Loans otherwise
required hereunder, (II) whether any conditions specified in Section 4.2 are then
satisfied, (III) whether a Default or an Event of Default then exists, (IV) failure
of any such request or deemed request for Revolving Loans to be made by the time
otherwise required in Section 2.1(b)(i), (V) the date of such Swingline Mandatory
Borrowing, or (VI) any reduction in the Revolving Committed Amount or termination of
the Revolving Commitments immediately prior to such Swingline Mandatory Borrowing or
contemporaneously therewith. In the event that any Swingline Mandatory Borrowing
cannot for any reason be made on the date otherwise required above (including,
without limitation, as a result of the commencement of a proceeding under the
Bankruptcy Code), then each Revolving Lender hereby agrees that it shall forthwith
purchase (as of the date the Swingline Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have
occurred, but adjusted for any payments received from the Company on or after such
date and prior to such purchase) from the Swingline Lender such participations in
the outstanding Swingline Loans as shall be necessary to cause each such Revolving
Lender to share in such Swingline Loans ratably based upon its respective Revolving
Commitment Percentage (determined before giving effect to any termination of the
Commitments pursuant to Section 7.2); provided that (A) all interest payable
on the Swingline Loans shall be for the account of the Swingline Lender until the
date as of which the respective participation is purchased, and (B) at the time any
purchase of participations pursuant to this sentence is actually made, the
purchasing Revolving Lender shall be required to pay to the Swingline Lender
interest on the principal amount of such participation purchased for each day from
and including the day upon which the Swingline Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise
have occurred to but excluding the date of payment for such participation, at the
rate equal to, if paid within two (2) Business Days of the date of the Swingline
Mandatory Borrowing, the Federal Funds Effective Rate, and thereafter at a rate
equal to the Alternate Base Rate.

(c) Interest on Swingline Loans. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.9,
Swingline Loans shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the Alternate Base Rate
plus the Applicable Percentage, if any, for Revolving Loans that are Alternate Base
Rate Loans. Interest on Swingline Loans shall be payable in arrears on each Interest
Payment Date.

(d) Swingline Note. The Swingline Loans shall be evidenced by a duly executed
promissory note of the Company to the Swingline Lender in the original amount of the
Swingline Committed Amount and substantially in the form of Schedule 2.3(d).

Section 2.4 Increase in Facility.

(a) Request for Increase. Provided there exists no Default or Event of
Default, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly notify the Lenders),
the Company may from time to time request an increase in the Revolving Commitments by an
amount (for all such requests) not exceeding $50,000,000; provided that (i) any
such request for an increase shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000, and (ii) the
Company may make a maximum of three such requests. At the time of sending such notice, the
Company (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period
within which each Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than ten
Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Lenders).

(b) Lender Elections to Increase. Each Lender shall notify the Administrative
Agent in writing within such time period whether or not it agrees to increase its Revolving
Commitment and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its
Revolving Commitment Percentage of such requested increase. Any Lender not responding
within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Revolving
Commitment.

(c) Notification by Administrative Agent; Additional Lenders. The
Administrative Agent shall notify the Company and each Lender of the Lenders’ responses to
each request made hereunder. To achieve the full amount of a requested increase and
subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent not to be unreasonably withheld, the
Company may invite other banks, financial institutions and investment funds to join this
Credit Agreement as Lenders hereunder, provided that such other banks, financial
institutions and investment funds shall enter into such joinder agreements to give effect
thereto as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request. The Administrative Agent is
authorized to enter into, on behalf of the Lenders, any amendment to this Credit Agreement
or any other Credit Document as may be necessary to reflect the increase in the Revolving
Commitment.

(d) Effective Date and Allocations. If the Revolving Commitments are
increased in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent and the Company shall
determine the effective date (the “Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of
such increase. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Company and the Lenders
of the final allocation of such increase and the Increase Effective Date.

(e) Conditions to Effectiveness of Increase. As a condition precedent to such
increase, the Company shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of each
Credit Party dated as of the Increase Effective Date (in sufficient copies for each Lender)
signed by an authorized officer of such Credit Party (i) certifying and attaching the
resolutions adopted by such Credit Party approving or consenting to such increase, and (ii)
in the case of the Company, certifying that, before and after giving effect to such
increase, (A) the representations and warranties contained in Article 3 and the other
Credit Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Increase
Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically
refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct in all material respects
as of such earlier date, and (B) no Default or Event of Default exists.

(f) Conflicting Provisions. This Section shall supersede any provisions in
Section 9.01 to the contrary.

Section 2.5 Fees.

(a) Commitment Fee. In consideration of the Revolving Commitments, the
Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Revolving
Lenders a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) in an amount equal to the
Applicable Percentage per annum on the average daily unused Dollar Amount (determined as of
the most recent Revaluation Date) of the Revolving Committed Amount. For purposes of
computation of the Commitment Fee, LOC Obligations shall be considered usage of the
Revolving Committed Amount but Swingline Loans shall not be considered usage of the
Revolving Committed Amount. The Commitment Fee shall be payable in arrears quarterly on
the first Business Day of each calendar quarter.

(b) Letter of Credit Fees. In consideration of the LOC Commitments, the
Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Revolving
Lenders, a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) equal to the Applicable Percentage per
annum on the average daily maximum amount available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit
from the date of issuance to the date of expiration. The Letter of Credit Fee shall be
payable quarterly in arrears on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter, and with
respect to any Foreign Currency Letters of Credit, payable in Dollars based on the Spot
Rate as of the prior quarter end.

(c) Issuing Lender Fees. In addition to the Letter of Credit Fees payable
pursuant to subsection (b) hereof, the Company shall pay to the Issuing Lender for its own
account without sharing by the other Lenders the reasonable and customary charges from time
to time of the Issuing Lender with respect to the amendment, transfer, administration,
cancellation and conversion of, and drawings under, such Letters of Credit (collectively,
the “Issuing Lender Fees”). The Issuing Lender may charge, and retain for its own
account without sharing by the other Lenders, an additional facing fee (the “Letter of
Credit Facing Fee”) of one tenth of one percent (0.10%) per annum on the average daily
maximum amount available to be drawn under each such Letter of Credit issued by it. The
Issuing Lender Fees and the Letter of Credit Facing Fee shall be payable quarterly in
arrears on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter.

(d) Administrative Fees. The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative
Agent the annual administrative fees as described in the Commitment Letter and, on the
Closing Date, an upfront fee, for the benefit of each Lender, in an amount equal to 15
basis points (0.15%) of the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment.

Section 2.6 Commitment Reductions.

(a) Voluntary Reductions. The Company shall have the right to terminate or
permanently reduce the unused portion of the Revolving Committed Amount at any time or from
time to time upon not less than five Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative
Agent (which shall notify the Lenders thereof as soon as practicable) of each such
termination or reduction, which notice shall specify the effective date thereof and the
amount of any such reduction which shall be in a minimum Dollar Amount (determined as of
the most recent Revaluation Date) of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess
thereof and shall be irrevocable and effective upon receipt by the Administrative Agent,
provided that no such reduction or termination shall be permitted if after giving
effect thereto, and to any prepayments of the Loans made on the effective date thereof, the
sum of the aggregate principal Dollar Amount (determined as of the most recent Revaluation
Date) of outstanding Revolving Loans plus outstanding Swingline Loans plus
LOC Obligations would exceed the Revolving Committed Amount.

(b) Swingline Committed Amount. If the Revolving Committed Amount is reduced
pursuant to Section 2.7(a) below the then Swingline Committed Amount, the Swingline
Committed Amount shall automatically be reduced by an amount such that the Swingline
Committed Amount equals the Revolving Committed Amount.

(c) Revolving Commitment Termination Date. The Revolving Commitments, the
Swingline Commitment and the LOC Commitment shall automatically terminate on the Revolving
Commitment Termination Date.

Section 2.7 Prepayments.

(a) Optional Prepayments. The Borrowers shall have the right to prepay Loans
in whole or in part from time to time; provided, however, that each partial
prepayment of a Revolving Loan shall be in a minimum principal Dollar Amount (determined as
of the most recent Revaluation Date) of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in
excess thereof (or the remaining outstanding principal amount), and each partial prepayment
of a Swingline Loan shall be in a minimum principal Dollar Amount (determined as of the
most recent Revaluation Date) of $100,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess
thereof (or the remaining outstanding principal amount). The Company shall give three
Business Days’ irrevocable notice in the case of LIBOR Rate Loans and same-day irrevocable
notice on any Business Day in the case of Alternate Base Rate Loans, to the Administrative
Agent (which shall notify the Lenders thereof as soon as practicable). All prepayments
under this Section 2.7(a) shall be subject to Section 2.17, but otherwise without premium
or penalty. Interest on the principal amount prepaid shall be payable on the next
occurring Interest Payment Date that would have occurred had such loan not been prepaid or,
at the request of the Administrative Agent, interest on the principal amount prepaid shall
be payable on any date that a prepayment is made hereunder through the date of prepayment.
Amounts prepaid on the Revolving Loans and the Swingline Loans may be reborrowed in
accordance with the terms hereof.

(b) Hedging Obligations Unaffected. Any repayment or prepayment made pursuant
to this Section 2.7 shall not affect the Borrower’s obligation to continue to make payments
under any Secured Hedging Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect
notwithstanding such repayment or prepayment, subject to the terms of such Secured Hedging
Agreement.

Section 2.8 Lending Offices.

LIBOR Rate Loans shall be made by each Lender at its LIBOR Lending Office and Alternate Base
Rate Loans at its Domestic Lending Office.

Section 2.9 Default Rate.

Upon the occurrence, and during the continuance, of an Event of Default, at the discretion of
the Required Lenders, the principal of and, to the extent permitted by law, interest on the Loans
and any other amounts owing hereunder or under the other Credit Documents shall bear interest,
payable on demand, at a per annum rate 2% greater than the rate which would otherwise be applicable
(or if no rate is applicable, whether in respect of interest, fees or other amounts, then the
Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Percentage, if any, for Alternate Base Rate Revolving Loans
plus 2%).

Section 2.10 Conversion Options.

(a) The Company may, in the case of Revolving Loans, elect from time to time to
convert Alternate Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars to LIBOR Rate Loans, by delivering
a Notice of Conversion/Extension to the Administrative Agent at least three Business Days
prior to the proposed date of conversion. In addition, the Company may elect from time to
time to convert all or any portion of a LIBOR Rate Loan denominated in Dollars to an
Alternate Base Rate Loan by delivering a Notice of Conversion/Extension to the
Administrative Agent by 11:00 A.M. EST three Business Days prior to the proposed date of
conversion. If the date upon which an Alternate Base Rate Loan is to be converted to a
LIBOR Rate Loan is not a Business Day, then such conversion shall be made on the next
succeeding Business Day and during the period from such last day of an Interest Period to
such succeeding Business Day such Loan shall bear interest as if it were an Alternate Base
Rate Loan. If the Company shall convert LIBOR Rate Loans to Alternate Base Rate Loans on a
date other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period, then the Company shall pay
breakage costs associated with such conversion as provided in Section 2.17. If the date
upon which a LIBOR Rate Loan is to be converted to an Alternate Base Rate Loan is not a
Business Day, then such conversion shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and
during the period from such last day of an Interest Period to such succeeding Business Day
such Loan shall bear interest as if it were an Alternate Base Rate Loan. All or any part
of outstanding Alternate Base Rate Loans may be converted as provided herein,
provided that (i) no Loan may be converted into a LIBOR Rate Loan when any Default
or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) partial conversions shall be in
an aggregate principal Dollar Amount (determined as of the most recent Revaluation Date) of
$1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof. All or any part of
outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans may be converted as provided herein, provided that
partial conversions shall be in an aggregate principal Dollar Amount (determined as of the
most recent Revaluation Date) of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess
thereof.

(b) Any LIBOR Rate Loans may be continued as such upon the expiration of an Interest
Period with respect thereto by compliance by the Company with the notice provisions
contained in Section 2.10(a); provided, that no LIBOR Rate Loan may be continued as
such when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in which case such Loan
shall be automatically converted to an Alternate Base Rate Loan denominated in Dollars at
the end of the applicable Interest Period with respect thereto. If the Company shall fail
to give timely notice of an election to continue a LIBOR Rate Loan, or the continuation of
LIBOR Rate Loans is not permitted hereunder, such LIBOR Rate Loans shall be automatically
converted to Alternate Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars at the end of the applicable
Interest Period with respect thereto.

(c) Unless otherwise agreed to by the Required Lenders, upon the occurrence and during
the continuance of any Event of Default, all Foreign Currency Loans then outstanding shall
be redenominated into Dollars (based on the Dollar Amount (determined as of the most recent
Revaluation Date) of such Foreign Currency Loans on the date of redenomination) on the last
day of the then current Interest Periods of such Foreign Currency Loans; provided
that in each case the Company shall be liable for any currency exchange loss related to
such payments and shall promptly pay to each Lender upon receipt of notice thereof by the
Company from such Lender the amount of any such loss incurred by such Lender.

Section 2.11 Computation of Interest and Fees; Usury.

(a) Interest payable hereunder with respect to Alternate Base Rate Loans based on the
Prime Rate and Foreign Currency Loans denominated in Pounds Sterling shall be calculated on
the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days, as applicable) for the actual days elapsed.
All other fees, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder shall be calculated on the
basis of a 360 day year for the actual days elapsed. The Administrative Agent shall as
soon as practicable notify the Company and the Lenders of each determination of a LIBOR
Rate on the Business Day of the determination thereof. Any change in the interest rate on
a Loan resulting from a change in the Alternate Base Rate shall become effective as of the
opening of business on the day on which such change in the Alternate Base Rate shall become
effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Company and
the Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change.

(b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any
provision of this Credit Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers and the
Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request
of the Company, deliver to the Company a statement showing the computations used by the
Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate.

(c) It is the intent of the Lenders and the Credit Parties to conform to and contract
in strict compliance with applicable usury law from time to time in effect. All agreements
between the Lenders and the Credit Parties are hereby limited by the provisions of this
subsection which shall override and control all such agreements, whether now existing or
hereafter arising and whether written or oral. In no way, nor in any event or contingency
(including but not limited to prepayment or acceleration of the maturity of any Credit
Party Obligation), shall the interest taken, reserved, contracted for, charged, or received
under this Credit Agreement, under the Notes or otherwise, exceed the maximum nonusurious
amount permissible under applicable law. If, from any possible construction of any of the
Credit Documents or any other document, interest would otherwise be payable in excess of
the maximum nonusurious amount, any such construction shall be subject to the provisions of
this paragraph and such interest shall be automatically reduced to the maximum nonusurious
amount permitted under applicable law, without the necessity of execution of any amendment
or new document. If any Lender shall ever receive anything of value which is characterized
as interest on the Loans under applicable law and which would, apart from this provision,
be in excess of the maximum nonusurious amount, an amount equal to the amount which would
have been excessive interest shall, without penalty, be applied to the reduction of the
principal amount owing on the Loans and not to the payment of interest, or refunded to the
applicable Borrower or the other payor thereof if and to the extent such amount which would
have been excessive exceeds such unpaid principal amount of the Loans. The right to demand
payment of the Loans or any other Indebtedness evidenced by any of the Credit Documents
does not include the right to receive any interest which has not otherwise accrued on the
date of such demand, and the Lenders do not intend to charge or receive any unearned
interest in the event of such demand. All interest paid or agreed to be paid to the
Lenders with respect to the Loans shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be
amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term (including any
renewal or extension) of the Loans so that the amount of interest on account of such
Indebtedness does not exceed the maximum nonusurious amount permitted by applicable law.

Section 2.12 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments.

(a) Allocation of Payments Prior to Exercise of Remedies. Each borrowing of
Revolving Loans and any reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be made pro
rata according to the respective Revolving Commitment Percentages of the Revolving
Lenders. Unless otherwise required by the terms of this Credit Agreement, each payment
(other than prepayments pursuant to Section 2.7) under this Credit Agreement or any Note
shall be applied as the Company may elect, or if the Company shall make no such election,
first, to any fees then due and owing by the Company pursuant to Section 2.5, second, to
interest then due and owing hereunder and under the Notes of the Borrowers, and, third, to
the outstanding principal of the Revolving Loans. Each payment on account of any fees
pursuant to Section 2.5 shall be made pro rata in accordance with the
respective Commitment Percentages of the Lenders (except as to the Letter of Credit Facing
Fee, the Issuing Lender Fees and the administrative fee referenced in Section 2.5(d)).
Each payment (other than prepayments) by the Borrowers on account of principal of and
interest on the Revolving Loans shall be made pro rata according to the
respective amounts due and owing hereunder in the currency in which such amount is
denominated and in such funds as are customary at the place and time of payment for the
settlement of international payments in such currency. Without limiting the terms of the
preceding sentence, accrued interest on any Loans denominated in a Foreign Currency shall
be payable in the same Foreign Currency as such Loan. Each optional prepayment of the
Loans shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.7(a). Payments made pursuant to Section
2.15 shall be applied in accordance with such Section. All payments (including
prepayments) to be made by the Borrowers on account of principal, interest and fees shall
be made without defense, set off or counterclaim (except as provided in Section 2.18(b)),
shall be made to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders in immediately
available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office and (i) in the case of Loans or other
amounts denominated in Dollars, shall be made in Dollars not later than 12:00 Noon EST on
the date when due and (ii) in the case of Loans or other amounts denominated in a Foreign
Currency, unless otherwise specified herein, shall be made in such Foreign Currency not
later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent on the date when due.
Any payment received after the foregoing deadlines shall be deemed received on the next
Business Day. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the Lenders
entitled thereto promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder
(other than payments on the LIBOR Rate Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a
Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, with
respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable
rate during such extension. If any payment on a LIBOR Rate Loan becomes due and payable on
a day other than a Business Day, such payment date shall be extended to the next succeeding
Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into
another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately
preceding Business Day.

(b) Allocation of Payments After Exercise of Remedies. Notwithstanding any
other provisions of this Credit Agreement to the contrary, after the exercise of remedies
(other than the invocation of default interest pursuant to Section 2.9) by the
Administrative Agent or the Lenders pursuant to Section 7.2 (or after the Commitments shall
automatically terminate and the Loans (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts
under the Credit Documents (including without limitation the maximum amount of all
contingent liabilities under Letters of Credit) shall automatically become due and payable
in accordance with the terms of such Section), all amounts collected or received by the
Administrative Agent or any Lender on account of the Credit Party Obligations or any other
amounts outstanding under any of the Credit Documents or in respect of the Collateral shall
be paid over or delivered as follows (irrespective of whether the following costs,
expenses, fees, interest, premiums, scheduled periodic payments or Credit Party Obligations
are allowed, permitted or recognized as a claim in any proceeding resulting from the
occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event):

FIRST, to the payment of all reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses
(including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees) of the Administrative
Agent in connection with enforcing the rights of the Lenders under the Credit
Documents and any protective advances made by the Administrative Agent with respect
to the Collateral under or pursuant to the terms of the Security Documents;

SECOND, to the payment of any fees owed to the Administrative Agent;

THIRD, to the payment of all reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses
(including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) of each of the Lenders in
connection with enforcing its rights under the Credit Documents or otherwise with
respect to the Credit Party Obligations owing to such Lender;

FOURTH, to the payment of all of the Credit Party Obligations consisting of
accrued fees and interest, and including with respect to any Secured Hedging
Agreement, any fees, premiums and scheduled periodic payments due under such Secured
Hedging Agreement and any interest accrued thereon;

FIFTH, to the payment of the outstanding principal amount of the Credit Party
Obligations and the payment or cash collateralization of the outstanding LOC
Obligations, and including with respect to any Secured Hedging Agreement, any
breakage, termination or other payments due under such Secured Hedging Agreement and
any interest accrued thereon;

SIXTH, to all other Credit Party Obligations and other obligations which shall
have become due and payable under the Credit Documents or otherwise and not repaid
pursuant to clauses ”FIRST” through “FIFTH” above; and

SEVENTH, to the payment of the surplus, if any, to whoever 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; (ii) each of the
Lenders shall receive an amount equal to its pro rata share (based on the proportion that the then
outstanding Loans and LOC Obligations held by such Lender bears to the aggregate then outstanding
Loans and LOC Obligations) of amounts available to be applied pursuant to clauses “THIRD”,
“FOURTH”, “FIFTH” and “SIXTH” above; and (iii) to the extent that any amounts available for
distribution pursuant to clause ”FIFTH” above are attributable to the issued but undrawn amount of
outstanding Letters of Credit, such amounts shall be held by the Administrative Agent in a cash
collateral account and applied (A) first, to reimburse the Issuing Lender from time to time for any
drawings under such Letters of Credit and (B) then, following the expiration of all Letters of
Credit, to all other obligations of the types described in clauses ”FIFTH” and “SIXTH” above in the
manner provided in this Section 2.12. Notwithstanding the foregoing terms of this Section 2.12,
neither the Foreign Borrower nor any other Foreign Credit Party shall be required to repay or
prepay, or to guarantee, nor shall any amount paid by the Foreign Borrower or any other Foreign
Credit Party be applied to, the Credit Party Obligations of the Company and the US Guarantors.

Section 2.13 Non Receipt of Funds by the Administrative Agent.

(a) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by a Lender
prior to the date a Loan is to be made by such Lender (which notice shall be effective upon
receipt) that such Lender does not intend to make the proceeds of such Loan available to
the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made
such proceeds available to the Administrative Agent on such date, and the Administrative
Agent may in reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be required to) make available to
the Borrowers a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made
available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall be able to recover
such corresponding amount from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding
amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent
will promptly notify the Company, and the applicable Borrower shall immediately pay such
corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall also be
entitled to recover from the Lender or the applicable Borrower, as the case may be,
interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such
corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the applicable
Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent at
a per annum rate equal to (i) from the applicable Borrower at the applicable rate for the
applicable borrowing pursuant to the Notice of Borrowing and (ii) from a Lender at the
Federal Funds Effective Rate.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the
Company, prior to the date on which any payment is due from a Borrower hereunder (which
notice shall be effective upon receipt) that the applicable Borrower does not intend to
make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the applicable Borrower has
made such payment when due, and the Administrative Agent may in reliance upon such
assumption (but shall not be required to) make available to each Lender on such payment
date an amount equal to the portion of such assumed payment to which such Lender is
entitled hereunder, and if the applicable Borrower has not in fact made such payment to the
Administrative Agent, such Lender shall, on demand, repay to the Administrative Agent the
amount made available to such Lender. If such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent
on a date after the date such amount was made available to such Lender, such Lender shall
pay to the Administrative Agent on demand interest on such amount in respect of each day
from the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to such Lender to
the date such amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent at a per annum rate equal to
the Federal Funds Effective Rate.

(c) A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to the Company or any Lender
with respect to any amount owing under this Section 2.13 shall be conclusive in the absence
of manifest error.

Section 2.14 Inability to Determine Interest Rate.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Credit Agreement, if (a) the Administrative Agent
shall reasonably determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest
error) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, deposits in the relevant
amount in the relevant currency and for the relevant Interest Period are not available in the
relevant market to any Lender or reasonable and adequate means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR
for such Interest Period, or (b) the Required Lenders shall reasonably determine (which
determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the LIBOR Rate does not
adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding LIBOR Rate Loans that the Company
has requested be outstanding as a LIBOR Tranche during such Interest Period, the Administrative
Agent shall forthwith give telephone notice of such determination, confirmed in writing, to the
Company, and the Lenders at least two Business Days prior to the first day of such Interest Period.
If such notice is given (i) any affected Foreign Currency Loans requested to be made on the first
day of such Interest Period shall be made, at the sole option of the applicable Borrower, in
Dollars as Alternate Base Rate Loans or such request shall be cancelled, (ii) any affected LIBOR
Rate Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made in Dollars
as Alternate Base Rate Loans and (iii) any affected Loans that were to have been converted on the
first day of such Interest Period to or continued as LIBOR Rate Loans shall be converted to or
continued in Dollars as Alternate Base Rate Loans. Until any such notice has been withdrawn by the
Administrative Agent, no further Loans shall be made as, continued as, or converted into, LIBOR
Rate Loans for the Interest Periods so affected.

Section 2.15 Illegality.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if (i) the adoption of, or any change
in, any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof by the relevant
Governmental Authority after the date of this Agreement shall make it unlawful for any
Lender or its LIBOR Lending Office to make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans denominated in
Dollars or in any Foreign Currency as contemplated by this Credit Agreement, or (ii) there
shall have occurred any change after the date of this Agreement in national or
international financial, political or economic conditions (including the imposition of or
any change in exchange controls) or currency exchange rates which would make it unlawful or
impossible for any Lender to make Loans denominated in any Foreign Currency to the
Borrowers, as contemplated by this Credit Agreement (any such affected LIBOR Rate Loans or
Foreign Currency Loans, the “Affected Loans”), then such Lender shall be an
“Affected Lender” and by written notice to the Company and to the Administrative Agent:

(i) may declare that Affected Loans will not thereafter (for the duration of
such unlawfulness or impossibility) be made by such Lender hereunder, whereupon any
request for an Affected Loan shall, as to such Lender only (A) if such Affected Loan
is not a Foreign Currency Loan, be deemed a request for an Alternate Base Rate Loan
(unless it should also be illegal for the Affected Lender to provide an Alternate
Base Rate Loan, in which case such Loan shall bear interest at a commensurate rate
to be agreed upon by the Administrative Agent and the Affected Lender, and so long
as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Company), unless
such declaration by the Affected Lender shall be subsequently withdrawn and (B) if
such Affected Loan is a Foreign Currency Loan, be deemed to have been withdrawn,
unless such declaration by the Affected Lender shall be subsequently withdrawn; and

(ii) may require that all outstanding Affected Loans, as the case may be, made
by it be (A) if such Affected Loans are not Foreign Currency Loans, converted to
Alternate Base Rate Loans, in which event all such Affected Loans shall be
automatically converted to Alternate Base Rate Loans as of the effective date of
such notice as provided in subsection (b) below or (B) if such Affected Loans are
Foreign Currency Loans, converted to Alternate Base Rate Loans denominated in
Dollars, in which event all such Affected Loans shall be converted to Alternate Base
Rate Loans denominated in Dollars as of the effective date of such notice as
provided in subsection (b) below; provided that the applicable Borrower
shall be liable for any currency exchange loss related to such conversion.

In the event any Lender shall exercise its rights under (i) or (ii) above with respect to any
Affected Loans which are not Foreign Currency Loans, all payments and prepayments of principal
which would otherwise have been applied to repay the Affected Loans of such Lender shall instead be
applied to repay the Alternate Base Rate Loans made by such Lender in lieu of, or resulting from
the conversion of, such Affected Loans.

(b) For purposes of this Section 2.15, a notice to the Company by any Lender shall be
effective as to each such Affected Loan, if lawful, on the last day of the Interest Period
currently applicable to such Affected Loan; in all other cases such notice shall be
effective on the date of receipt by the Company.

Section 2.16 Requirements of Law.

(a) If the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the
interpretation or application thereof or compliance by any Lender with any request or
directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other
Governmental Authority, in each case made subsequent to the date hereof:

(i) shall subject such Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to
any Letter of Credit or any application relating thereto, any LIBOR Rate Loan made
by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof
(except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Lender);

(ii) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit,
compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other
liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit
by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender which is not
otherwise included in the determination of the LIBOR Rate hereunder; or

(iii) shall impose on such Lender any other condition;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making
or maintaining LIBOR Rate Loans or the Letters of Credit (or the Participations Interests
therein) or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder or under any Note, then, in any such
case, the applicable Borrower shall promptly pay such Lender, upon its demand, any
additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for such additional cost or reduced
amount receivable which such Lender reasonably deems to be material as determined by such
Lender with respect to its LIBOR Rate Loans or Letters of Credit. A certificate as to any
additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by such Lender, through the
Administrative Agent, to the Company shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.
Each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (including reasonable efforts to change its
Domestic Lending Office or LIBOR Lending Office, as the case may be) to avoid or to minimize
any amounts which might otherwise be payable pursuant to this paragraph of this Section;
provided, however, that such efforts shall not cause the imposition on such Lender
of any additional costs or legal or regulatory burdens deemed by such Lender to be material.

(b) If any Lender shall have reasonably determined that the adoption of or any change
after the date of this Agreement in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or in
the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or any corporation
controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether
or not having the force of law) from any central bank or Governmental Authority made
subsequent to the date hereof does or shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return
on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations
hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved
but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or
such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount reasonably
deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, within fifteen (15) days
after demand by such Lender, the applicable Borrower shall pay to such Lender such
additional amount as shall be certified by such Lender as being required to compensate it
for such reduction. Such a certificate as to any additional amounts payable under this
Section submitted by a Lender (which certificate shall include a description of the basis
for the computation), through the Administrative Agent, to the Company shall be conclusive
absent manifest error.

(c) The agreements in this Section 2.16 shall survive the termination of this Credit
Agreement and payment of the Credit Party Obligations.

Any claim by a Lender for indemnification under this Section 2.16 shall be made no
later than 90 days after such Lender becomes aware any amount payable to such Lender under
this Section.

Section 2.17 Indemnity.

Each of the Borrowers hereby agree to indemnify each Lender and to hold such Lender harmless
from any funding loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a)
default by such Borrower in payment of the principal amount of or interest on any Loan by such
Lender in accordance with the terms hereof, (b) default by such Borrower in accepting a borrowing
after such Borrower has given a notice in accordance with the terms hereof, (c) default by such
Borrower in making any prepayment after such Borrower has given a notice in accordance with the
terms hereof, and/or (d) the making by such Borrower of a prepayment of a Loan, or the conversion
thereof, on a day which is not the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto, in each
case including, but not limited to, any such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable
by such Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain its Loans hereunder. A
certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by any Lender,
through the Administrative Agent, to the Company (which certificate must be delivered to the
Administrative Agent within thirty days following such default, prepayment or conversion) shall be
conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The agreements in this Section shall survive
termination of this Credit Agreement and payment of the Credit Party Obligations; provided,
that any claim by a Lender for indemnification under this Section 2.17 shall be made no later than
90 days after such Lender becomes aware of such loss or expense.

Section 2.18 Taxes.

(a) All payments made by the Credit Parties hereunder or under any Note shall be,
except as provided in Section 2.18(b), made free and clear of, and without deduction or
withholding for, any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or
other charges of whatever nature now or hereafter imposed by any Governmental Authority or
by any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein with respect to such
payments (but excluding any tax imposed on or measured by the net income or profits of a
Lender pursuant to the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is organized or the
jurisdiction in which the principal office or applicable lending office of such Lender is
located or any subdivision thereof or therein) and all interest, penalties or similar
liabilities with respect thereto (all such non excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties,
fees, assessments or other charges being referred to collectively as “Taxes”). If any
Taxes are so levied or imposed, the applicable Credit Parties agree to pay the full amount
of such Taxes, and such additional amounts as may be necessary so that every payment of all
amounts by such Credit Parties due under this Credit Agreement or under any Note, after
withholding or deduction for or on account of any Taxes, will not be less than the amount
provided for herein or in such Note. The applicable Credit Parties will furnish to the
Administrative Agent as soon as practicable after the date the payment of any Taxes is due
pursuant to applicable law certified copies (to the extent reasonably available and
required by law) of tax receipts evidencing such payment by such Credit Parties. The
applicable Credit Parties agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Lender, and reimburse
such Lender upon its written request, for the amount of any Taxes so levied or imposed and
paid by such Lender.

(b) Each Lender that is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section
7701(a)(30) of the Code) agrees to deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent on
or prior to the Closing Date, or in the case of a Lender that is an assignee or transferee
of an interest under this Credit Agreement pursuant to Section 9.6(d) (unless the
respective Lender was already a Lender hereunder immediately prior to such assignment or
transfer), on the date of such assignment or transfer to such Lender two accurate and
complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W 8BEN or W 8ECI (or
successor forms) certifying such Lender’s entitlement to a complete exemption from United
States withholding tax with respect to payments to be made under this Credit Agreement and
under any Note. In addition, each Lender agrees that it will deliver upon the Company’s
request updated versions of the foregoing, as applicable, whenever the previous
certification has become obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, together with such
other forms as may be required in order to confirm or establish the entitlement of such
Lender to a continued exemption from or reduction in United States withholding tax with
respect to payments under this Credit Agreement and any Note. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained in Section 2.18(a), but subject to the immediately following
sentence, (A) the Borrowers shall be entitled, to the extent required to do so by law, to
deduct or withhold Taxes imposed by the United States (or any political subdivision or
taxing authority thereof or therein) from interest, fees or other amounts payable hereunder
for the account of any Lender which is not a United States person (as such term is defined
in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for U.S. Federal income tax purposes to the extent that
such Lender has not provided to the Company U.S. Internal Revenue Service Forms that
establish a complete exemption from such deduction or withholding and (B) the Borrowers
shall not be obligated pursuant to Section 2.18(a) hereof to gross up payments to be made
to a Lender in respect of Taxes imposed by the United States if (I) such Lender has not
provided to the Company the Internal Revenue Service Forms required to be provided to the
Company pursuant to this Section 2.18(b) or (II) in the case of a payment, other than
interest, to a Lender described in clause (ii) above, to the extent that such Forms do not
establish a complete exemption from withholding of such Taxes. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained in the preceding sentence or elsewhere in this Section 2.18, the
Credit Parties agree to pay additional amounts and to indemnify each Lender in the manner
set forth in Section 2.18(a) (without regard to the identity of the jurisdiction requiring
the deduction or withholding) in respect of any amounts deducted or withheld by it as
described in the immediately preceding sentence as a result of any changes after the
Closing Date in any applicable law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or
order, or in the interpretation thereof, relating to the deducting or withholding of Taxes.

(c) Each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (including reasonable efforts to
change its Domestic Lending Office or LIBOR Lending Office, as the case may be) to avoid or
to minimize any amounts which might otherwise be payable pursuant to this Section;
provided, however, that such efforts shall not cause the imposition on such Lender
of any additional costs or legal or regulatory burdens deemed by such Lender in its sole
discretion to be material.

(d) If the Credit Parties pay any additional amount pursuant to this Section 2.18 with
respect to a Lender, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to obtain a refund of tax or
credit against its tax liabilities on account of such payment; provided that such
Lender shall have no obligation to use such reasonable efforts if either (i) it is in an
excess foreign tax credit position or (ii) it believes in good faith, in its sole
discretion, that claiming a refund or credit would cause adverse tax consequences to it.
In the event that such Lender receives such a refund or credit, such Lender shall pay to
the Credit Parties an amount that such Lender reasonably determines is equal to the net tax
benefit obtained by such Lender as a result of such payment by the Credit Parties. In the
event that no refund or credit is obtained with respect to the Credit Parties’ payments to
such Lender pursuant to this Section 2.18, then such Lender shall upon request provide a
certification that such Lender has not received a refund or credit for such payments.
Nothing contained in this Section 2.18 shall require a Lender to disclose or detail the
basis of its calculation of the amount of any tax benefit or any other amount or the basis
of its determination referred to in the proviso to the first sentence of this Section 2.18
to the Credit Parties or any other party.

(e) The agreements in this Section 2.18 shall survive the termination of this Credit
Agreement and the payment of the Credit Party Obligations.

Section 2.19 Indemnification; Nature of Issuing Lender’s Duties.

(a) In addition to its other obligations under Section 2.2, the applicable Borrower
hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save the Issuing Lender harmless from and
against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and
expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) that the Issuing Lender may incur or be
subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (i) the issuance of any Letter of
Credit on behalf such Borrower or one of its Subsidiaries or (ii) the failure of the
Issuing Lender to honor a drawing under a Letter of Credit issued on behalf of such
Borrower or one of its Subsidiaries as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or
wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or Governmental Authority
(all such acts or omissions, herein called “Government Acts”).

(b) As between the Credit Parties and the Issuing Lender, the Credit Parties shall
assume all risks of the acts, omissions or misuse of any Letter of Credit by the
beneficiary thereof. The Issuing Lender shall not be responsible: (i) for the form,
validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by
any party in connection with the application for and issuance of any Letter of Credit, even
if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate,
fraudulent or forged; (ii) for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring
or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit or the rights or
benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, that may prove to be invalid
or ineffective for any reason; (iii) for payment to the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit
on a drawing by a beneficiary that substantially (but not strictly) complies with
conditions required in order to draw upon a Letter of Credit; (iv) for errors, omissions,
interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable,
telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) for errors in
interpretation of technical terms; (vi) for any loss or delay in the transmission or
otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under a Letter of Credit or
of the proceeds thereof; and (vii) for any consequences arising from causes beyond the
control of the Issuing Lender, including, without limitation, any Government Acts. None of
the above shall affect, impair, or prevent the vesting of the Issuing Lender’s rights or
powers hereunder.

(c) In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions
hereinabove set forth, any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Lender, under or in
connection with any Letter of Credit or the related certificates, if taken or omitted in
the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not put such Issuing Lender
under any resulting liability to the Credit Parties. It is the intention of the parties
that this Credit Agreement shall be construed and applied to protect and indemnify the
Issuing Lender against any and all risks involved in the issuance of the Letters of Credit,
all of which risks are hereby assumed by the Credit Parties, including, without limitation,
any and all risks of the acts or omissions, whether rightful or wrongful, of any Government
Authority. The Issuing Lender shall not, in any way, be liable for any failure by the
Issuing Lender or anyone else to pay any drawing under any Letter of Credit as a result of
any Government Acts or any other cause beyond the control of the Issuing Lender.

(d) Except as provided in subsection (e) below, nothing in this Section 2.19 is
intended to limit the Reimbursement Obligation of the Company contained in Section 2.2(d)
hereof. The obligations of the Credit Parties under this Section 2.19 shall survive the
termination of this Credit Agreement. No act or omissions of any current or prior
beneficiary of a Letter of Credit shall in any way affect or impair the rights of the
Issuing Lender to enforce any right, power or benefit under this Credit Agreement.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.19 the Credit
Parties shall have no obligation to indemnify the Issuing Lender in respect of any
liability incurred by the Issuing Lender arising out of the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of the Issuing Lender (including action not taken by the Issuing Lender), as
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

Section 2.20 Replacement of Lenders.

The Company shall be permitted to replace, with a financial institution, any Lender (other
than HSBC) that (a) requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.15, 2.16 or
2.18(a), or (b) is then in default of its obligation to make Loans hereunder; provided that
(i) such replacement does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (ii) no Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (iii) prior to any such
replacement, such Lender shall have taken no action under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.18(a), as
applicable, so as to eliminate the continued need for payment of amounts owing pursuant to Section
2.15, 2.16 or 2.18(a), as applicable, (iv) the replacement financial institution shall purchase, at
par, all Loans and other amounts owing to such replaced Lender on or prior to the date of

Loan owing to such replaced Lender shall be purchased other than on the last day of the Interest
Period relating thereto, (vi) the replacement financial institution, if not already a Lender, shall
be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (vii) the replaced Lender shall be
obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.6
(provided that the Company shall be obligated to pay the registration and processing fee
referred to therein), (viii) until such time as such replacement shall be consummated, the Company
shall pay all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.18(a), as
the case may be, and (ix) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights
that the Company, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced
Lender. In the event the replaced Lender fails to execute the agreements required under Section
9.6 in connection with any assignment pursuant to this Section 2.20, the Company may, upon two (2)
Business Days prior notice to such replaced Lender, execute such agreements on behalf of such
replaced Lender. A Lender shall not be required to be replaced if, prior thereto, as a result of
a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Company to require such
replacement cease to apply.

Section 2.21 Obligations of Borrowers.

Notwithstanding anything in this Credit Agreement or in the other Credit Documents to the
contrary (including, without limitation, Section 2.7, Section 2.12, Article X and Article XI), the
parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (a) each of the Borrowers, in its capacity as a Borrower
hereunder, is not jointly and severally liable for the Credit Party Obligations of the other
Borrower; provided that it is acknowledged and agreed that the Company has guaranteed the

nor shall any amount paid by the Foreign Borrower or any other Foreign Credit Party be applied to,

of the Credit Parties and their Subsidiaries in such jurisdiction and (d) is in compliance with all
Requirements of Law, government permits and government licenses except to the extent that the
failure to comply therewith could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to

Credit Documents to which it is party. No consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or
other act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is required in

have been obtained), and will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien on
any Credit Party’s properties or revenues pursuant to any Requirement of Law or Contractual
Obligation other than the Liens arising under or contemplated in connection with the Credit
Documents. No Credit Party is in default under or with respect to any of its Contractual
Obligations to the extent such default could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

Regulation T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System as now and from time
to time hereafter in effect. The Credit Parties and their Subsidiaries are not engaged,
principally or as one of their important activities, in the business of extending credit for the
purpose of “purchasing” or “carrying” “margin stock” within the respective meanings of each of such

proceeding or other action seeking issuance of a warrant of attachment, execution,

discharged, or stayed or bonded pending appeal within 60 days from the entry thereof; or
(iv) a Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries (other than, with respect to any of acts set
forth in clause (i) above, any de minimus Foreign Subsidiary that is not a Foreign Credit
Party) shall take any action in furtherance of, or indicating its consent to, approval of,
or acquiescence in, any of the acts set forth in clause (i), (ii), or (iii) above; or (v) a
Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries (other than any de minimus Foreign Subsidiary that

Commonly Controlled Entity, (iii) a Reportable Event shall occur with respect to, or
proceedings shall commence to have a trustee appointed, or a trustee shall be appointed, to
administer or to terminate, any Single Employer Plan, which Reportable Event or
commencement of proceedings or appointment of a trustee is, in the reasonable opinion of
the Required Lenders, likely to result in the termination of such Plan for purposes of
Title IV of ERISA, (iv) any Single Employer Plan shall terminate for purposes of Title IV
of ERISA, (v) a Credit Party, any of its Subsidiaries or any Commonly Controlled Entity
shall, or in the reasonable opinion of the Required Lenders is likely to, incur any

respect to a Plan, except to the extent any of the foregoing could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; or

with its terms) or shall be declared to be null and void, or any Credit Party shall
contest the validity or enforceability of the Guaranty or any Credit Document in writing or
deny in writing that it has any further liability, including with respect to future
advances by the Lenders, under any Credit Document to which it is a party; or

(j) Invalidity of Credit Documents. Any other Credit Document shall fail to be

ARTICLE VIII.

THE AGENT

Section 8.1 Appointment.

Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints HSBC as the Administrative Agent of
such Lender under this Credit Agreement, and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes HSBC, as the
Administrative Agent for such Lender, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of
this Credit Agreement and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly
delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Credit Agreement, together with such
other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Each Lender acknowledges that the Credit
Parties may rely on each action taken by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders
hereunder. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Credit Agreement, the
Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set
forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions,
responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Credit Agreement or
otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent.

Section 8.2 Delegation of Duties.

The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Credit Agreement by or
through agents or attorneys in fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all
matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the
negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys in fact selected by it with reasonable care.
Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may appoint one of its affiliates as its
agent to perform the functions of the Administrative Agent hereunder relating to the advancing of
funds to the Borrowers and distribution of funds to the Lenders and to perform such other related
functions of the Administrative Agent hereunder as are reasonably incidental to such functions.

Section 8.3 Exculpatory Provisions.

Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents,
attorneys in fact, Subsidiaries or affiliates shall be (i) liable to any Lender for any action
lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Credit
Agreement (except for its or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (ii)
responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or
warranties made by any Credit Party or any officer thereof contained in this Credit Agreement or in
any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by
the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Credit Agreement or for the value,
validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of any of the Credit Documents
or for any failure of any Credit Party to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The
Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as
to the observance or performance by any Credit Party of any of the agreements contained in, or
conditions of, this Credit Agreement, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Credit
Party.

Section 8.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent.

(a) The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected
in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit,
letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other
document or conversation believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have
been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of
legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Credit Parties), independent
accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative
Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Loan or Note as the owner thereof for all
purposes unless an executed Assignment Agreement has been filed with the Administrative
Agent pursuant to Section 9.6(c) with respect to such Loan or the Loans evidenced by such
Note. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any
action under this Credit Agreement unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence
of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its
satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred
by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent
shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under any of
the Credit Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders or all of the
Lenders, as may be required under this Credit Agreement, and such request and any action
taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all
future holders of the Notes.

(b) For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section
4.1, each Lender that has signed this Credit Agreement shall be deemed to have consented
to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required
thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender.

Section 8.5 Notice of Default.

The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of
any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from
a Lender or the Company referring to this Credit Agreement, describing such Default or Event of
Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the
Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice
thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such
Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders;
provided, however, that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such
directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or
refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem
advisable in the best interests of the Lenders except to the extent that this Credit Agreement
expressly requires that such action be taken, or not taken, only with the consent or upon the
authorization of the Required Lenders, or all of the Lenders, as the case may be.

Section 8.6 Non Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.

Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its
officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys in fact or affiliates has made any representation
or warranty to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any
review of the affairs of any Credit Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or
warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Administrative
Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other
Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own
appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other
condition and creditworthiness of the Borrowers and made its own decision to make its Loans
hereunder and enter into this Credit Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will,
independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on
such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own
credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Credit
Agreement, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the
business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the
Borrowers. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to
the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty
or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the
business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness
of the Borrowers which may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its
officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys in fact or affiliates.

Section 8.7 Indemnification.

The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and their
Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, agents and employees (to the extent not
reimbursed by the Borrowers and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), ratably
according to their respective Revolving Commitment Percentages in effect on the date on which
indemnification is sought under this Section, from and against any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including, without limitation, at any
time following the payment of the Credit Party Obligations) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted
against any such indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of any Credit Document or any
documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby
or thereby or any action taken or omitted by any such indemnitee under or in connection with any of
the foregoing; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any
portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent resulting from such indemnitee’s gross negligence or
willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. The agreements in this
Section 8.7 shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement and payment of the Notes and all
other amounts payable hereunder.

Section 8.8 Administrative Agent in Its Individual Capacity.

The Administrative Agent and its affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and
generally engage in any kind of business with the Company as though the Administrative Agent were
not the Administrative Agent hereunder. With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it and any
Note issued to it, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Credit
Agreement as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent,
and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Administrative Agent in its individual
capacity.

Section 8.9 Successor Administrative Agent.

The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 30 days’ prior notice to the
Company and the Lenders. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under
this Credit Agreement and the Notes or if the Administrative Agent enters or becomes subject to
receivership, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for
the Lenders, which successor agent shall be subject to approval by the Company with such approval
not to be unreasonably withheld (provided, however if an Event of Default shall exist at
such time, no approval of the Company shall be required hereunder), whereupon such successor agent
shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term
“Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and
approval, and the former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent
shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former
Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Credit Agreement or any holders of the Notes.
After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation as Administrative Agent, the provisions of
this Section 8.9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it
while it was Administrative Agent under this Credit Agreement.

Section 8.10 Nature of Duties.

Except as otherwise expressly stated herein, any agent (other than the Administrative Agent)
or co-lead arranger listed from time to time on the cover page of this Credit Agreement shall have
no obligations, responsibilities or duties under this Credit Agreement or under any other Credit
Document other than obligations, responsibilities and duties applicable to all Lenders in their
capacity as Lenders; provided, however, that such agents and co-lead arrangers shall be
entitled to the same rights, protections, exculpations and indemnifications granted to the
Administrative Agent under this Article VIII in their capacity as an agent or co-lead arranger.

Section 8.11 Releases.

The Administrative Agent shall release any US Guarantor or any Foreign Guarantor and any Lien
on any Collateral, which is sold as permitted by the Credit Agreement or as otherwise permitted by
the Lenders or Required Lenders, as applicable. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall
release the pledge of any first-tier Foreign Subsidiary of a US Credit Party to the extent such
Foreign Subsidiary ceases to be a first-tier Foreign Subsidiary.

ARTICLE IX.

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 9.1 Amendments, Waivers and Release of Collateral.

Neither this Credit Agreement nor any of the other Credit Documents, nor any terms hereof or
thereof may be amended, supplemented, waived or modified (by amendment, waiver, consent or
otherwise) except in accordance with the provisions of this Section nor may Collateral be released
except as specifically provided herein or in the Security Documents or in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 9.1. The Required Lenders may or, with the written consent of the
Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, from time to time, (x) enter into with the Credit
Parties written amendments, supplements or modifications hereto and to the other Credit Documents
for the purpose of adding any provisions to this Credit Agreement or the other Credit Documents or
changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or of the Credit Parties hereunder or thereunder
or (b) waive or consent to the departure from, on such terms and conditions as the Required Lenders
may specify in such instrument, any of the requirements of this Credit Agreement or the other
Credit Documents or any Default or Event of Default and its consequences; provided,
however, that no such amendment, supplement, modification, release, waiver or consent shall:

(i) reduce the amount or extend the scheduled date of maturity of any Loan or
Note or any installment thereon, or reduce the stated rate of any interest or fee
payable hereunder (except in connection with a waiver of interest at the increased
post-default rate set forth in Section 2.10 which shall be determined by a vote of
the Required Lenders) or extend the scheduled date of any payment thereof or
increase the amount or extend the expiration date of any Lender’s Commitment, in
each case without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;
provided that, it is understood and agreed that any reduction in the stated
rate of interest on Revolving Loans shall only require the written consent of each
Lender holding a Revolving Commitment; or

(ii) amend, modify or waive any provision of this Section 9.1 or reduce the
percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders, without the written
consent of all the Lenders; or

(iii) amend, modify or waive any provision of Article VIII without the written
consent of the then Administrative Agent; or

(iv) release a Borrower or all or substantially all of the Guarantors from
their obligations under the Foreign Guaranty or the US Guaranty, as applicable,
without the written consent of all of the Lenders; or

(v) release all or substantially all of the Collateral, without the written
consent of all of the Lenders; or

(vi) permit the Borrowers to assign or transfer any of their rights or
obligations under this Credit Agreement or other Credit Documents; or

(vii) amend, modify or waive any provision of the Credit Documents affecting
the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or the
Swingline Lender under any Credit Document without the written consent of the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and/or the Swingline Lender, as applicable,
in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action; or

(viii) amend or modify the definition of Credit Party Obligations to delete or
exclude any obligation or liability described therein without the written consent of
each Lender directly affected thereby; or

(ix) amend, modify or waive the order in which Credit Party Obligations are
paid in Section 2.12(b) without the written consent of each Lender directly affected
thereby.

Any such waiver, amendment, supplement or modification and any such release shall apply
equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Borrowers, the other Credit Parties,
the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and all future holders of the Notes. In the case of any
waiver, the Borrowers, the other Credit Parties, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall be
restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the outstanding Loans and Notes
and other Credit Documents, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured
and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of
Default, or impair any right consequent thereon.

Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, the consent of the Borrowers and the
other Credit Parties shall not be required for any amendment, modification or waiver of the
provisions of Article VIII (other than the provisions of Sections 8.9 and 8.11).

Notwithstanding the fact that the consent of all the Lenders is required in certain
circumstances as set forth above, (x) each Lender is entitled to vote as such Lender sees fit on
any bankruptcy reorganization plan that affects the Loans, and each Lender acknowledges that the
provisions of Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code supersedes the unanimous consent provisions
set forth herein and (y) the Required Lenders may consent to allow a Credit Party to use cash
collateral in the context of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding.

been terminated and all amounts owing hereunder and under any Notes have been paid in full.

Section 9.5 Payment of Expenses and Taxes.

The Credit Parties agree (a) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Arranger for
all their reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the development,
preparation, negotiation, printing and execution of, and any amendment, supplement or modification
to, this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents and any other documents prepared in
connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation and administration of the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby, together with the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to
the Administrative Agent and the Arranger, (b) to pay or reimburse each Lender and the
Administrative Agent for all its costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or
preservation of any rights under this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents, including,
without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent
and to the Lenders (including reasonable allocated costs of in-house legal counsel), and (c) on
demand, to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Arranger harmless
from, any and all recording and filing fees and any and all liabilities with respect to, or
resulting from any delay in paying, stamp, documentary, intangibles, excise and other similar
taxes, charges or levies, if any, which may be payable or determined to be payable in connection
with the execution and delivery of, or consummation or administration of any of the transactions
contemplated by, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or
in respect of, the Credit Documents and any such other documents and (d) to pay, indemnify, and
hold each Lender, the Administrative Agent, the Arranger and their Affiliates and their respective
officers, directors, employees, partners, members, counsel, agents, representatives, advisors and
affiliates (collectively called the “Indemnitees”) harmless from and against, any and all
other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (other than those liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements for which indemnification is provided by the Credit Parties pursuant to Article II)
with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of the Credit
Documents and any such other documents and the use, or proposed use, of proceeds of the Loans (all
of the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, however,
that the Borrowers shall not have any obligation hereunder to an Indemnitee with respect to
Indemnified Liabilities arising from the gross negligence, wrongful refusal to fund or willful
misconduct of such Indemnitee, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to a
final non-appealable judgment. The agreements in this Section 9.5 shall survive repayment of the
Loans, Notes and all other amounts hereunder.

Section 9.6 Successors and Assigns; Participations; Purchasing Lenders.

(a) This Credit Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Credit
Parties, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, all future holders of the Notes and their
respective successors and assigns, except that the Credit Parties may not assign or
transfer any of their rights or obligations under this Credit Agreement or the other Credit
Documents without the prior written consent of each Lender.

(b) Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with
applicable law, at any time sell to one or more banks or other entities
(“Participants”) participating interests in any Loan owing to such Lender, any Note
held by such Lender, any Commitment of such Lender, or any other interest of such Lender
hereunder. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of participating interests to a
Participant, such Lender’s obligations under this Credit Agreement to the other parties to
this Credit Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible
for the performance thereof, such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Note for all
purposes under this Credit Agreement, and the Company and the Administrative Agent shall
continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s
rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement. No Lender shall transfer or grant any
participation under which the Participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to or
waiver of this Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document except to the extent such
amendment or waiver would (i) extend the scheduled maturity of any Loan or Note or any
installment thereon in which such Participant is participating, or reduce the stated rate
or extend the time of payment of interest or fees thereon (except in connection with a
waiver of interest at the increased post-default rate set forth in Section 2.9 which shall
be determined by a vote of the Required Lenders) or reduce the principal amount thereof, or
increase the amount of the Participant’s participation over the amount thereof then in
effect; provided that, it is understood and agreed that (A) a waiver of any Default
or Event of Default shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and
(B) an increase in any Commitment or Loan shall be permitted without consent of any
participant if the Participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof, (ii)
release a Borrower or all or substantially all of the Guarantors from their obligations
under the US Guaranty or the Foreign Guaranty, as applicable, (iii) release all or
substantially all of the Collateral, or (iv) consent to the assignment or transfer by the
Borrowers of any of their rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement. In the case
of any such participation, the Participant shall not have any rights under this Credit
Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents (the Participant’s rights against such
Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by
such Lender in favor of the Participant relating thereto) and all amounts payable by the
Borrowers hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation;
provided that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15,
2.16, 2.17 and 9.5 with respect to its participation in the Commitments and the Loans
outstanding from time to time; provided, further, that no Participant shall be
entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to such Sections than the transferor Lender
would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the participation
transferred by such transferor Lender to such Participant had no such transfer occurred.

(c) Any Lender may, in accordance with applicable law, at any time, sell or assign to
any Lender or any Affiliate or Approved Fund thereof and to one or more additional banks,
insurance companies, financial institutions, investment funds or other entities
(“Purchasing Lenders”), all or any part of its rights and obligations under this
Credit Agreement and the Notes in minimum amounts of $5,000,000 with respect to its
Revolving Commitment and its Revolving Loans (or, if less, the entire amount of such
Lender’s Revolving Commitment and Revolving Loans), pursuant to an Assignment Agreement,
executed by such Purchasing Lender, such transferor Lender, the Administrative Agent and
the Company (to the extent required), and delivered to the Administrative Agent for its
acceptance and recording in the Register; provided, however, that (A) any sale or
assignment to an existing Lender, or Affiliate or Approved Fund thereof, shall not require
the consent of the Company nor shall any such sale or assignment be subject to the minimum
assignment amounts specified herein, and (B) so long as no Default or Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, any sale or assignment of a portion of the Revolving
Loans and a Revolving Loan Commitment shall require the consent of the Company. Upon such
execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the Transfer Effective Date
specified in such Assignment Agreement, (1) the Purchasing Lender thereunder shall be a
party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Assignment Agreement, have the rights and
obligations of a Lender hereunder with a Commitment as set forth therein, and (2) the
transferor Lender thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Assignment Agreement, be
released from its obligations under this Credit Agreement (and, in the case of an
Assignment Agreement covering all or the remaining portion of a transferor Lender’s rights
and obligations under this Credit Agreement, such transferor Lender shall cease to be a
party hereto; provided, however, that such Lender shall continue to be entitled to
any indemnification rights that expressly survive hereunder). Such Assignment Agreement
shall be deemed to amend this Credit Agreement to the extent, and only to the extent,
necessary to reflect the addition of such Purchasing Lender and the resulting adjustment of
Commitment Percentages arising from the purchase by such Purchasing Lender of all or a
portion of the rights and obligations of such transferor Lender under this Credit Agreement
and the Notes. On or prior to the Transfer Effective Date specified in such Assignment
Agreement, the Borrowers, at their own expense, shall execute and deliver to the
Administrative Agent in exchange for the Notes delivered to the Administrative Agent
pursuant to such Assignment Agreement new Notes to the order of such Purchasing Lender in
an amount equal to the Commitment assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment Agreement and,
unless the transferor Lender has not retained a Commitment hereunder, new Notes to the
order of the transferor Lender in an amount equal to the Commitment retained by it
hereunder. Such new Notes shall be dated the Closing Date and shall otherwise be in the
form of the Notes replaced thereby.

(d) The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 9.2
a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered to it and a register (the “Register”)
for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of, and
principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time. A Loan (and the
related Note) recorded on the Register may be assigned or sold in whole or in part upon
registration of such assignment or sale on the Register. The entries in the Register shall
be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the
owner of the Loan recorded therein for all purposes of this Credit Agreement. The Register
shall be available for inspection by the Company or any Lender at any reasonable time and
from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. In the event that any Lender sells
participations in a Loan recorded on the Register, such Lender shall maintain a register on
which it enters the name of all participants in such Loans held by it (the “Participant
Register”). A Loan recorded on the Register (and the registered Note, if any,
evidencing the same) may be participated in whole or in part only by registration of such
participation on the Participant Register (and each registered Note shall expressly so
provide). Any participation of such Loan recorded on the Register (and the registered
Note, if any, evidencing the same) may be effected only by the registration of such
participation on the Participant Register.

(e) Upon its receipt of a duly executed Assignment Agreement, together with payment to
the Administrative Agent by the transferor Lender or the Purchasing Lender, as agreed
between them, of a registration and processing fee of $3,500 (which registration and
processing fee shall not be payable in connection with an assignment to an Affiliate) for
each Purchasing Lender listed in such Assignment Agreement and the Notes subject to such
Assignment Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall (i) accept such Assignment Agreement,
(ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice
of such acceptance and recordation to the Lenders and the Company.

(f) The Borrowers authorize each Lender to disclose to any Participant or Purchasing
Lender (each, a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee any and all financial
information in such Lender’s possession concerning the Company and its Subsidiaries which
has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrowers pursuant to this Credit
Agreement or which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrowers in
connection with such Lender’s credit evaluation of the Borrowers and their Affiliates prior
to becoming a party to this Credit Agreement, in each case subject to Section 9.15.

(g) At the time of each assignment pursuant to this Section 9.6 to a Person which is
not already a Lender hereunder and which is not a United States person (as such term is
defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for Federal income tax purposes, the respective
assignee Lender shall provide to the Company and the Administrative Agent the appropriate
Internal Revenue Service Forms (and, if applicable, a Tax Exempt Certificate) described in
Section 2.18.

(h) Nothing herein shall prohibit any Lender from pledging or assigning any of its
rights under this Credit Agreement (including, without limitation, any right to payment of
principal and interest under any Note) to secure obligations of such Lender, including
without limitation, any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve
Bank.

Section 9.7 Adjustments; Set off.

(a) Each Lender agrees that if any Lender (a “benefited Lender”) shall at any
time receive any payment of all or part of its Loans, or interest thereon, or receive any
collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set off, pursuant
to a Bankruptcy Event or otherwise) in a greater proportion than any such payment to or
collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Loans,
or interest thereon, such benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a
participating interest in such portion of each such other Lender’s Loan, or shall provide
such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as
shall be necessary to cause such benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits
of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however,
that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from
such benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and
benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. The Borrowers
agree that each Lender so purchasing a portion of another Lender’s Loans may exercise all
rights of payment (including, without limitation, rights of set off) with respect to such
portion as fully as if such Lender were the direct holder of such portion.

(b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law (including,
without limitation, other rights of set-off), each Lender shall have the right, without
prior notice to the Borrowers or the applicable Credit Party, any such notice being
expressly waived by the Credit Parties to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon the
occurrence of any Event of Default, to setoff and appropriate and apply any and all
deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and
any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or
indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held by or owing to
such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of the
Borrowers or any other Credit Party, or any part thereof in such amounts as such Lender may
elect, against and on account of the Loans and other Credit Party Obligations of the
Borrowers and the other Credit Parties to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and
claims of every nature and description of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders against
the Borrowers and the other Credit Parties, in any currency, whether arising hereunder,
under any other Credit Document or any Secured Hedging Agreement pursuant to the terms of
this Credit Agreement, as such Lender may elect, whether or not the Administrative Agent or
the Lenders have made any demand for payment and although such obligations, liabilities and
claims may be contingent or unmatured. The aforesaid right of set-off may be exercised by
such Lender against the Borrowers, any other Credit Party or against any trustee in
bankruptcy, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, receiver or
execution, judgment or attachment creditor of the Borrowers or any other Credit Party, or
against anyone else claiming through or against the Borrowers, any other Credit Party or
any such trustee in bankruptcy, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of
creditors, receiver, or execution, judgment or attachment creditor, notwithstanding the
fact that such right of set-off shall not have been exercised by such Lender prior to the
occurrence of any Event of Default. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Company and
the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender;
provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the
validity of such set-off and application. Notwithstanding the terms of this Section to the
contrary, each of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent acknowledge and agree that it
will not set-off any account of the Foreign Borrower to repay Credit Party Obligations of a
US Credit Party.

Section 9.18 Patriot Act Notice.

Each Lender and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any other party)

Each Lender hereby directs the Administrative Agent to release, and the Administrative Agent

Section 9.20 Judgment Currency.

If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due
hereunder or under any other Credit Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of
exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the
Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day
preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of each of the Credit Parties in
respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under
the other Credit Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment
Currency”) other than Dollars, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day
following receipt by the Administrative Agent or such Lender of any sum adjudged to be so due in
the Judgment Currency, the Administrative Agent or such Lender may in accordance with normal
banking procedures purchase Dollars with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of Dollars so
purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in
Dollars, the Company agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to
indemnify the Administrative Agent or such Lender or the Person to whom such obligation was owing
against such loss. If the amount of Dollars so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to
the Administrative Agent or such Lender in such currency, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
agree to apply such excess to any Credit Party Obligations then due and payable in accordance with
the terms of Section 2.12.

Section 9.21 Foreign Subsidiary Restructuring.

After the Closing Date, the Company intends to restructure its Foreign Subsidiaries to improve
corporate management efficiency, reduce expenses and minimize tax obligations. The reorganization
will be accomplished by consolidating the ownership of some of the Foreign Subsidiaries (including
possibly some Foreign Credit Parties). Therefore, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary
within this Credit Agreement, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree that the Credit
Parties shall be permitted, without seeking an amendment or waiver under this Credit Agreement, to
effect this restructuring by contributing, distributing, selling or otherwise transferring the
Capital Stock of certain existing Foreign Subsidiaries (including Foreign Credit Parties) to one or
more Foreign Subsidiaries; provided that (a) any Foreign Subsidiary that is a Foreign
Credit Party prior to such contribution, distribution, sale, merger or other transfer shall remain
a Foreign Credit Party after giving effect thereto, if still existing, and (b) if a Foreign Credit
Party existing prior to such contribution, distribution, sale, merger or other transfer does not
exist thereafter, the Foreign Subsidiary to which such Foreign Credit Party was contributed,
distributed, sold, merged or otherwise transferred shall join this Agreement as a Foreign Credit
Party. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders further agree that they will, pursuant to Section
8.11, release any existing pledges of Capital Stock of a Foreign Subsidiary that, after the
restructuring, is no longer a first-tier Foreign Subsidiary of the Company; provided,
however, that 65% of the voting Capital Stock of any first-tier Foreign Subsidiaries of the
Company, if any, resulting from such restructuring will be pledged to the Administrative Agent and
the Lenders.

be repaid to the Company or a US Guarantor, the estate of the Company or a US Guarantor, a trustee,
receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable
cause, then to the extent of such avoidance or repayment, the obligation or part thereof intended
to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if said payment had not
been made.

Section 10.3 Nature of Liability.

or other guaranty of the Credit Party Obligations of the Company whether executed by any such US

Section 10.5 Authorization.

Each of the US Guarantors authorizes the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Hedging
Agreement Provider without notice or demand (except as shall be required by applicable statute and
cannot be waived), and without affecting or impairing its liability hereunder, from time to time to

otherwise change the terms of the Credit Party Obligations or any part thereof in accordance with

Section 10.6 Reliance.

It is not necessary for the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or any Hedging Agreement
Provider to inquire into the capacity or powers of the Company or the officers, directors, members,
partners or agents acting or purporting to act on its behalf, and any Credit Party Obligations made
or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed hereunder.

Section 10.7 Waiver.

(a) Each of the US Guarantors waives any right (except as shall be required by
applicable statute and cannot be waived) to require the Administrative Agent, any Lender or
any Hedging Agreement Provider to (i) proceed against the Company, any other guarantor or
any other party, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from the Company, any
other guarantor or any other party, or (iii) pursue any other remedy in the Administrative

other guarantor or any other party other than payment in full of the Credit Party
Obligations, including, without limitation, any defense based on or arising out of the
disability of the Company, any other guarantor or any other party, or the unenforceability
of the Credit Party Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from
any cause of the liability of the Company other than payment in full of the Credit Party
Obligations. The Administrative Agent may, at its election, foreclose on any security held
by the Administrative Agent by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales (to the extent
such sale is permitted by applicable law), or exercise any other right or remedy the
Administrative Agent or any Lender may have against the Company or any other party, or any
security, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any US Guarantor
hereunder except to the extent the Credit Party Obligations have been paid in full and the
Commitments have been terminated. Each of the US Guarantors waives any defense arising out
of any such election by the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders, even though such
election operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or
other right or remedy of the US Guarantors against the Company or any other party or any
security.

(b) Each of the US Guarantors waives all presentments, demands for performance,
protests and notices, including, without limitation, notices of nonperformance, notice of
protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of the US Guaranty, and notices of the
existence, creation or incurring of new or additional Credit Party Obligations. Each US
Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the Company’s
financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of
nonpayment of the Credit Party Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks
which such US Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that neither the
Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any duty to advise such US Guarantor of
information known to it regarding such circumstances or risks.

(c) Each of the US Guarantors hereby agrees it will not exercise any rights of
subrogation which it may at any time otherwise have as a result of the US Guaranty (whether
contractual, under Section 509 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, or otherwise) to the claims of
the Lenders or any Hedging Agreement Provider against the Company or any other guarantor of
the Credit Party Obligations of the Company owing to the Lenders or any such Hedging
Agreement Provider (collectively, the “Other Parties”) and all contractual,
statutory or common law rights of reimbursement, contribution or indemnity from any Other
Party which it may at any time otherwise have as a result of the US Guaranty until such
time as the Loans hereunder shall have been paid and the Commitments have been terminated.
Each of the US Guarantors hereby further agrees not to exercise any right to enforce any
other remedy which the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or any Hedging Agreement Provider
now has or may hereafter have against any Other Party, any endorser or any other guarantor
of all or any part of the Credit Party Obligations of the Company and any benefit of, and
any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to or for the benefit of the
Lenders and/or any such Hedging Agreement Provider to secure payment of the Credit Party
Obligations of the Company until such time as the Loans hereunder shall have been paid and
the Commitments have been terminated.

Section 10.8 Limitation on Enforcement.

The Lenders and the Hedging Agreement Providers agree that this US Guaranty may be enforced
only by the action of the Administrative Agent acting upon the instructions of the Required Lenders
and that no Lender or Hedging Agreement Provider shall have any right individually to seek to
enforce or to enforce the US Guaranty, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies
may be exercised by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders under the terms of this
Agreement and for the benefit of any Hedging Agreement Provider under any Secured Hedging
Agreement. The Lenders and the Hedging Agreement Providers further agree that this US Guaranty may
not be enforced against any director, officer, employee or stockholder of the US Guarantors.

Section 10.9 Confirmation of Payment.

The Administrative Agent and the Lenders will, upon request after payment in cash in full of
the Credit Party Obligations and obligations which are the subject of the US Guaranty and
termination of the Commitments relating thereto (excluding any continuing obligations under any
Secured Hedging Agreements, pooling agreements or cash management agreements), confirm to the
Company, the US Guarantors or any other Person that such Credit Party Obligations and obligations
have been paid and the Commitments relating thereto terminated, subject to the provisions of
Section 10.2.

any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, or
otherwise is avoided, and/or required to be repaid to the Foreign Borrower or a Foreign Guarantor,
the estate of the Foreign Borrower or a Foreign Guarantor, a trustee, receiver or any other party
under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent
of such avoidance or repayment, the obligation or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be
revived and continued in full force and effect as if said payment had not been made.

Section 11.3 Nature of Liability.

The liability of each Foreign Guarantor hereunder is exclusive and independent of any security
for or other guaranty of the Credit Party Obligations of the Foreign Borrower whether executed by
any such Foreign Guarantor, any other guarantor or by any other party, and no Foreign Guarantor’s
liability hereunder shall be affected or impaired by (a) any direction as to application of payment
by the Foreign Borrower or by any other party, (b) any other continuing or other guaranty,
undertaking or maximum liability of a guarantor or of any other party as to the Credit Party
Obligations of the Foreign Borrower, (c) any payment on or in reduction of any such other guaranty
or undertaking, (d) any dissolution, termination or increase, decrease or change in personnel by
the Foreign Borrower, or (e) any payment made to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders on the
Credit Party Obligations of the Foreign Borrower which the Administrative Agent or such Lenders
repay the Foreign Borrower pursuant to court order in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
moratorium or other debtor relief proceeding, and each of the Foreign Guarantors waives any right
to the deferral or modification of its obligations hereunder by reason of any such proceeding.

Section 11.4 Independent Obligation.

The obligations of each Foreign Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of any
other Foreign Guarantor or the Foreign Borrower, and a separate action or actions may be brought
and prosecuted against each Foreign Guarantor whether or not action is brought against any other
Foreign Guarantor or the Foreign Borrower and whether or not any other Foreign Guarantor or the
Foreign Borrower are joined in any such action or actions.

Section 11.5 Authorization.

Each of the Foreign Guarantors authorizes the Administrative Agent and each Lender without
notice or demand (except as shall be required by applicable statute and cannot be waived), and
without affecting or impairing its liability hereunder, from time to time to (a) renew, compromise,
extend, increase, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment of, or otherwise change the
terms of the Credit Party Obligations or any part thereof in accordance with this Agreement,
including any increase or decrease of the rate of interest thereon, (b) take and hold security from
any Foreign Guarantor or any other party for the payment of the Foreign Guaranty or the Credit
Party Obligations of the Foreign Borrower and exchange, enforce waive and release any such
security, (c) apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders in their discretion may determine and (d) release or
substitute any one or more endorsers, Foreign Guarantors, Foreign Borrower or other obligors.

Section 11.6 Reliance.

It is not necessary for the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to inquire into the capacity
or powers of the Foreign Borrower or the officers, directors, members, partners or agents acting or
purporting to act on its behalf, and any Credit Party Obligations of the Foreign Borrower made or
created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed hereunder.

Section 11.7 Waiver.

(a) Each of the Foreign Guarantors waives any right (except as shall be required by
applicable statute and cannot be waived) to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender
to (i) proceed against the Foreign Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party, (ii)
proceed against or exhaust any security held from the Foreign Borrower, any other guarantor
or any other party, or (iii) pursue any other remedy in the Administrative Agent’s or any
Lender’s power whatsoever. Each of the Foreign Guarantors waives any defense based on or
arising out of any defense of the Foreign Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party
other than payment in full of the Credit Party Obligations of the Foreign Borrower and
termination of all Commitments with respect thereto, including, without limitation, any
defense based on or arising out of the disability of the Foreign Borrower, any other
guarantor or any other party, or the unenforceability of the Credit Party Obligations or
any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of the
Foreign Borrower other than payment in full of the Credit Party Obligations and termination
of all Commitments with respect thereto. The Administrative Agent may, at its election,
foreclose on any security held by the Administrative Agent by one or more judicial or
nonjudicial sales (to the extent such sale is permitted by applicable law), or exercise any
other right or remedy the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have against the Foreign
Borrower or any other party, or any security, without affecting or impairing in any way the
liability of any Foreign Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the Credit Party
Obligations of the Foreign Borrower have been paid in full and the Commitments with respect
thereto have been terminated. Each of the Foreign Guarantors waives any defense arising
out of any such election by the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders, even though
such election operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or
other right or remedy of the Foreign Guarantors against the Foreign Borrower or any other
party or any security.

(b) Each of the Foreign Guarantors waives all presentments, demands for performance,
protests and notices, including, without limitation, notices of nonperformance, notice of
protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of the Foreign Guaranty, and notices of
the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional Credit Party Obligations. Each
Foreign Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the
Foreign Borrower’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing
upon the risk of nonpayment of the Credit Party Obligations of the Foreign Borrower and the
nature, scope and extent of the risks which such Foreign Guarantor assumes and incurs
hereunder, and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any
duty to advise such Foreign Guarantor of information known to it regarding such
circumstances or risks.

(c) Each of the Foreign Guarantors hereby agrees it will not exercise any rights of
subrogation which it may at any time otherwise have as a result of the Foreign Guaranty
(whether contractual, under Section 509 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, or otherwise) to the
claims of the Lenders against the Foreign Borrower or any other guarantor of the Credit
Party Obligations of the Foreign Borrower owing to the Lenders (collectively, the
“Other Parties”) and all contractual, statutory or common law rights of
reimbursement, contribution or indemnity from any Other Party which it may at any time
otherwise have as a result of the Foreign Guaranty until such time as the Loans hereunder
shall have been paid and the Commitments have been terminated. Each of the Foreign
Guarantors hereby further agrees not to exercise any right to enforce any other remedy
which the Administrative Agent or the Lenders now have or may hereafter have against any
Other Party, any endorser or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Credit Party
Obligations of the Foreign Borrower and any benefit of, and any right to participate in,
any security or collateral given to or for the benefit of the Lenders to secure payment of
the Credit Party Obligations of the Foreign Borrower until such time as the Loans hereunder
shall have been paid and the Commitments have been terminated.

Section 11.8 Limitation on Enforcement.

The Lenders agree that this Foreign Guaranty may be enforced only by the action of the
Administrative Agent acting upon the instructions of the Required Lenders and that no Lender shall
have any right individually to seek to enforce or to enforce the Foreign Guaranty, it being
understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised by the Administrative Agent
for the benefit of the Lenders under the terms of this Agreement. The Lenders further agree that
this Foreign Guaranty may not be enforced against any director, officer, employee or stockholder of
the Foreign Guarantors.

Section 11.9 Confirmation of Payment.

The Administrative Agent and the Lenders will, upon request after payment in cash in full of
the Credit Party Obligations of the Borrowers and obligations which are the subject of the Foreign
Guaranty and termination of the Commitments relating thereto (excluding any continuing obligations
under any Secured Hedging Agreements, pooling agreements or cash management agreements), confirm to
the Foreign Borrower, the Foreign Guarantors or any other Person that such Credit Party Obligations
of the Foreign Borrower and obligations have been paid and the Commitments relating thereto
terminated, subject to the provisions of Section 11.2.
