BROADPOINT SECURITIES GROUP, INC.

2007 INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN

RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS AGREEMENT

          THIS RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) confirms the grant on February 13,
2009 (the “Grant Date”) by Broadpoint Securities Group, Inc., a New York corporation (the
“Company”), to Patricia Arciero-Craig (“Employee”) of Restricted Stock Units (the “Units”),
including rights to Dividend Equivalents as specified herein, as follows:

     Number Granted: 20,661 Units

How Units Vest: 33-1/3% of the Units if not previously forfeited, will vest on
the first anniversary of the Grant Date, 33-1/3% of the Units if not
previously forfeited, will vest on the second anniversary of the Grant Date and
33-1/3% of the Units, if not previously forfeited, will vest on the third
anniversary of the Grant Date, provided that Employee continues to be employed
by the Company or a subsidiary on each vesting date (each, a “Stated Vesting
Date”). In addition, if not previously forfeited, the Units will become vested
upon the occurrence of certain events relating to Termination of Employment to
the extent provided in Section 4 of the Terms and Conditions of Restricted
Stock Units attached hereto (the “Terms and Conditions”). The terms “vest” and
“vesting” mean that the Units have become non-forfeitable. If Employee has a
Termination of Employment prior to the Stated Vesting Date and the Units are
not otherwise deemed vested by that date, the Units will be immediately
forfeited except as otherwise provided in Section 4 of the Terms and
Conditions.

Settlement Date: Settlement of vested Units will occur on the earlier of
the third anniversary of the Grant Date or when an Employee has had a
Termination of Employment (such date being the “Settlement Date”), except
settlement shall be deferred in certain cases if required or permitted in
accordance with Section 8(a) of the Terms and Conditions, and Units that become
vested after Termination of Employment shall be settled at the later of vesting
or the date determined in accordance with Section 8(a) of the Terms and
Conditions. Units granted hereunder will be settled by delivery of one Share
for each Unit being settled (together with any cash or Shares resulting from
Dividend Equivalents).

 

 

          The Units are subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s 2007 Incentive Compensation
Plan (the “Plan”), and this Agreement, including the Terms and Conditions attached hereto. The
number of Units, the kind of shares deliverable in settlement of Units, and other terms relating to
the Units are subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 5 of the Terms and Conditions and
Section 5.3 of the Plan.

          Employee acknowledges and agrees that (i) Units are nontransferable, except as provided in
Section 3 of the Terms and Conditions and Section 9.2 of the Plan, (ii) Units are subject to
forfeiture upon Employee’s Termination of Employment in certain circumstances and, following
certain Terminations of Employment, failure of Employee to comply with non-competition and related
conditions set forth in Section 4(d)(iii) prior to vesting, as specified in Section 4 of the Terms
and Conditions, and (iii) sales of shares delivered in settlement of Units will be subject to the
Company’s policies regulating trading by employees.

          IN WITNESS WHEREOF, BROADPOINT SECURITIES GROUP, INC. has caused this Agreement to be executed
by its officer thereunto duly authorized, and Employee has duly executed this Agreement, by which
each has agreed to the terms of this Agreement.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS

          The following Terms and Conditions apply to the Units granted to Employee by Broadpoint
Securities Group, Inc. (the “Company”), and Units (if any) resulting from Dividend Equivalents, as
specified in the Restricted Stock Units Agreement (of which these Terms and Conditions form a
part). Certain terms of the Units, including the number of Units granted, vesting date(s) and
Settlement Date, are set forth in the Agreement.

          1. GENERAL. The Units are granted to Employee under the Company’s 2007 Incentive
Compensation Plan (the “Plan”). A copy of the Plan and information regarding the Plan, including
documents that constitute the “Prospectus” for the Plan under the Securities Act of 1933, can be
obtained from the Company upon request. All of the applicable terms, conditions and other
provisions of the Plan are incorporated by reference herein. Capitalized terms used in the
Agreement and this Terms and Conditions but not defined herein shall have the same meanings as in
the Plan. If there is any conflict between the provisions of the Agreement and this Terms and
Conditions and mandatory provisions of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan govern, otherwise, the
terms of this document shall prevail. By accepting the grant of the Units, Employee agrees to be
bound by all of the terms and provisions of the Plan (as presently in effect or later amended), the
rules and regulations under the Plan adopted from time to time, and the decisions and
determinations of the Company’s Executive Compensation Committee (the

2

 

“Committee”) made from time to time, provided that no such Plan amendment, rule or regulation or
Committee decision or determination without the consent of an affected Participant shall
materially affect the rights of the Employee with respect to the Units.

          2. ACCOUNT FOR EMPLOYEE. The Company shall maintain a bookkeeping account for
Employee (the “Account”) reflecting the number of Units then credited to Employee hereunder as a
result of such grant of Units and any crediting of additional Units to Employee pursuant to
payments equivalent to dividends paid on Common Stock under Section 5 hereof (“Dividend
Equivalents”).

          3. NONTRANSFERABILITY. Until Units are settled in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement, Employee may not sell, transfer, assign, pledge, margin or otherwise encumber or dispose
of Units or any rights hereunder to any third party other than by will or the laws of descent and
distribution, except for transfers to a Beneficiary or as otherwise permitted and subject to the
conditions under Section 9.2 of the Plan.

          4. TERMINATION PROVISIONS. The following provisions will govern the vesting and
forfeiture of the Units in the event of Employee’s Termination of Employment and/or occurrence of a
post-termination Forfeiture Event (as defined below), unless otherwise determined by the Committee
(subject to Section 8(a) hereof):

          (a) Death or Disability. In the event of Employee’s Termination of Employment due to
death or Disability (as defined below), all Units then outstanding, if not previously vested, will
immediately vest, and all Units will be settled in accordance with the settlement terms set out in
the Agreement, giving effect to any valid deferral election of Employee then in effect.

          (b) Retirement or Involuntary Termination by the Company not for Cause. In the event
of Employee’s Retirement or an involuntary Termination of Employment by the Company not for Cause,
Units not previously vested shall not then be forfeited provided that Employee executes a
settlement agreement and release in such form as may be requested by the Company, but thereafter
such Units shall be forfeited if there occurs a Forfeiture Event prior to the earlier of the Stated
Vesting Date for such Units or Employee’s death. Upon such a Termination of Employment, the
then-outstanding Units that are vested at the date of Termination and that become vested thereafter
will be settled in accordance with the settlement terms set out in the Agreement, giving effect to
any valid deferral election of Employee then in effect. The foregoing notwithstanding, any
settlement resulting from a Termination of Employment which would be made to a “specified employee”
as defined under Code Section 409A shall be made six months after the date of Termination of
Employment.

          (c) Termination by Employee for any Reason or by the Company for Cause. In the event
of Employee’s Termination of Employment by Employee for any reason (other than due to Retirement)
or by the Company for Cause, the portion of the then-outstanding Units not vested at the date of
Termination will be forfeited, and the portion of the then-outstanding Units that are vested and
non-forfeitable at the date of Termination will be settled on the Settlement Date specified in the
Agreement, except that any valid deferral election of Employee shall be given effect. The
foregoing notwithstanding, any settlement resulting from a Termination of

3

 

Employment which would be made to a “specified employee” as defined under Code Section 409A shall
be made six months after the date of such employee’s Termination of Employment.

          (d) Certain Definitions. The following definitions apply for purposes of this
Agreement, whether or not Employee has an employment agreement or other agreement with a Group
Entity that contains the same or similar defined terms:

               (i) “Cause” has the meaning given in the Plan.

               (ii) “Disability” means “disability” as defined in Code Section 409A.

               (iii) A “Forfeiture Event” means and shall be deemed to have occurred if, at any time after
the grant of the Units including following Employee’s Termination of Employment, Employee shall
have failed to comply with any of the following conditions. Without the consent in writing of the
Board, Employee will not, at any time prior to an applicable Stated Vesting Date, acting alone or
in conjunction with others, directly or indirectly (A) render services for any organization or
engage (either as owner, investor, partner, stockholder, employer, employee, consultant, advisor,
or director) directly or indirectly, in any business which is or becomes competitive with the
Company, its subsidiaries or affiliates, except that if such Employee is a party to any agreement
with the Company at the time Employee executes this Agreement which provides for similar
restrictions as the preceding restrictions, then (x) the preceding restrictions shall be considered
to have been violated only if there is a violation of such similar restrictions in the other
agreement which are in effect at the time Employee executes this Agreement, and (y) for purposes of
clause (x), the similar restrictions in such other agreement shall be deemed not to lapse, expire
or otherwise terminate prior to the lapse, expiration or other termination of this Agreement; (B)
induce any customer or client of or investor (excluding anyone who is an investor solely as a
holder of Common Stock of the Company) in the Company, its subsidiaries or affiliates with whom
Employee has had contacts or relationships, directly or indirectly, during and within the scope of
his employment with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, to curtail, limit, or
cancel their business with the Company, its subsidiaries or affiliates; (C) induce, or attempt to
influence, any employee of the Company, its subsidiaries or affiliates to terminate employment; (D)
solicit, hire or retain as an employee or independent contractor, or assist any third party in the
solicitation, hire, or retention as an employee or independent contractor, any person who during
the previous 12 months was an employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates; or
(E) otherwise fail to comply with the conditions set forth in Section 7.4(a), (b) and (c) of the
Plan. However, following Termination of Employment, Employee shall be free to purchase stock or
other securities of an organization or business so long as it is listed upon a recognized
securities exchange or traded over-the-counter and such investment does not represent a greater
than five percent equity interest in the organization or business.

               (iv) “Group Entity” means either the Company or any of its subsidiaries and affiliates.

               (v) “Pro Rata Portion” means, for each tranche of Units, a fraction the numerator of which is
the number of days that have elapsed from the Grant Date to the date of Employee’s Termination of
Employment and the denominator of which is the number of days

4

 

from the Grant Date to the Stated Vesting Date for that tranche. A “tranche” is that portion of
Units that have a unique Stated Vesting Date.

               (vi) “Retirement” means a “Retirement” as defined in the Plan which also qualifies as a
Termination of Employment.

               (vii) “Termination of Employment” means the event by which Employee ceases to be employed by a
Group Entity and immediately thereafter is not employed by any other Group Entity and which
constitutes a “separation from service” under Code Section 409A and its associated regulations.

          5. DIVIDEND EQUIVALENTS AND ADJUSTMENTS.

          (a) Dividend Equivalents. Subject to Section 5(d), Dividend Equivalents will be
credited on Units (other than Units that, at the relevant record date, previously have been settled
or forfeited) and deemed reinvested in additional Units, to the extent and in the manner as
follows:

               (i) Cash Dividends. If the Company declares and pays a dividend or distribution on
Shares in the form of cash, then a number of additional Units shall be credited to Employee’s
Account as of the last day of the calendar quarter in which such dividend or distribution was paid
equal to the number of Units credited to the Account as of the record date for such dividend or
distribution multiplied by cash amount of the dividend or distribution paid on each outstanding
Share at such payment date, divided by the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock at the date
of such crediting; provided, however, that in the case of an extraordinary cash dividend or
distribution the Company may provide for such crediting at the dividend or distribution payment
date instead of the last day of the calendar quarter.

               (ii) Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company declares and pays a dividend or
distribution on Shares in the form of additional Shares, or there occurs a forward split of Shares,
then a number of additional Units shall be credited to Employee’s Account as of the payment date
for such dividend or distribution or forward split equal to the number of Units credited to the
Account as of the record date for such dividend or distribution or split multiplied by the number
of additional Shares actually paid as a dividend or distribution or issued in such split in respect
of each outstanding Share.

               (iii) Other Dividends. If the Company declares and pays a dividend or distribution
on Shares in the form of property other than additional Shares, then a number of additional Units
shall be credited to Employee’s Account as of the payment date for such dividend or distribution
equal to the number of Units credited to the Account as of the record date for such dividend or
distribution multiplied by the Fair Market Value of such property actually paid as a dividend or
distribution on each outstanding Share at such payment date, divided by the Fair Market Value of a
Share at such payment date.

          (b) Adjustments. The number of Units credited to Employee’s Account shall be
appropriately adjusted, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of Employee’s rights with
respect to Units or to reflect any changes in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock
resulting from any event referred to in Section 5.3 of the Plan, taking into account any Units
credited to Employee in connection with such event under Section 5(a) hereof.

5

 

          (c) Risk of Forfeiture and Settlement of Units Resulting from Dividend Equivalents and
Adjustments. Units which directly or indirectly result from Dividend Equivalents on or
adjustments to a Unit granted hereunder and which do not result from a dividend or distribution on
Shares in the form of cash, shall be subject to the same risk of forfeiture as applies to the
granted Unit and, if not forfeited, will be settled at the same time as the granted Unit. Units
which directly or indirectly result from Dividend Equivalents on or adjustments to a Unit granted
hereunder and which result from an ordinary dividend or distribution on Shares in the form of cash,
shall not be subject to forfeiture and will be settled at the same time as the granted Unit (or if
the granted Unit is forfeited, then at the time the granted Unit would have been settled if it were
not forfeited). Units which directly or indirectly result from Dividend Equivalents on or
adjustments to a Unit granted hereunder and which result from an extraordinary dividend or
distribution on Shares in the form of cash, shall, unless otherwise determined by the Company at
the time of such extraordinary dividend or distribution, be subject to the same risk of forfeiture
as applies to the granted Unit and, if not forfeited, will be settled at the same time as the
granted Unit.

          (d) Changes to Manner of Crediting Dividend Equivalents. The provisions of Section
5(a) notwithstanding, the Company may vary the manner and timing of crediting Dividend Equivalents
for administrative convenience, including, for example, by crediting cash Dividend Equivalents
rather than additional Units.

          6. ADDITIONAL FORFEITURE PROVISIONS NOT APPLICABLE. The forfeiture conditions set
forth in Section 7.4 of the Plan shall not apply to all Units hereunder and to gains realized upon
the settlement of the Units, except as specifically stated herein.

          7. EMPLOYEE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES AND RELEASE. As a condition to any
non-forfeiture of the Units at or after Termination of Employment and to any settlement of the
Units, the Company may require Employee (i) to make any representation or warranty to the Company
as may be required under any applicable law or regulation, to make a representation and warranty
that no Forfeiture Event has occurred or is contemplated, and that otherwise the requirements of
Section 7 above have been met, and (ii) to execute a release of claims against the Company arising
before the date of such release, in such form as may be specified by the Company.

          8. OTHER TERMS RELATING TO UNITS.

          (a) Deferral of Settlement; Compliance with Code Section 409A. Settlement of any
Unit, which otherwise would occur at the Settlement Date, will be deferred in certain cases if and
to the extent Employee is permitted to defer the Units and timely makes a valid deferral election
relating to the Units. Deferrals, whether elective or mandatory under the terms of this Agreement,
shall comply with requirements under Code Section 409A. Deferrals will be subject to such other
restrictions and terms as may be specified by the Company prior to deferral. This Agreement is
intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, and shall be interpreted and
construed consistently with such intent. Any payments to the Employee pursuant to this Agreement
are also intended to be exempt from Section 409A of the Code to the maximum extent possible, under
either the separation pay exemption pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) or
as short-term deferrals pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4). Each payment and
benefit hereunder shall constitute a

6

 

“separately identified” amount within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2).
In the event that the terms of this Agreement would subject the Employee to taxes or penalties
under Section 409A of the Code (“409A Penalties”), the Company and the Employee shall cooperate
diligently to amend the terms of the Agreement to avoid such 409A Penalties, to the extent
possible; provided that in no event shall the Company be responsible for any 409A Penalties that
arise in connection with any amounts payable under this Agreement. To the extent any amounts under
this Agreement are payable by reference to the Employee’s termination of employment, such term
shall be deemed to refer to the Employee’s separation from service, within the meaning of Section
409A of the Code. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, if the
Employee is a “specified employee,” as defined in Section 409A of the Code, as of the date of the
Employee’s separation from service, then to the extent any amount payable under this Agreement (i)
constitutes the payment of nonqualified deferred compensation, within the meaning of Section 409A
of the Code, (ii) is payable upon the Employee’s separation from service and (iii) under the terms
of this Agreement would be payable prior to the six-month anniversary of the Employee’s separation
from service, such payment shall be delayed until the earlier to occur of (a) the six-month
anniversary of the separation from service or (b) the date of the Employee’s death. It is
understood that Code Section 409A and regulations thereunder may require any elective deferral to
comply with Section 409A(a)(4)(C). In addition, under U.S. federal income tax laws and Treasury
Regulations (including proposed regulations) as presently in effect or hereafter implemented, (i)
if the timing of any distribution in settlement of Units would result in Employee’s constructive
receipt of income relating to the Units prior to such distribution, the date of distribution will
be the earliest date after the specified date of distribution that distribution can be effected
without resulting in such constructive receipt (or, if delayed distribution would not avoid such
constructive receipt, distribution will be accelerated to the date that would avoid such
constructive receipt, but in no event will distribution occur before the vesting date); and (ii)
any rights of Employee or retained authority of the Company with respect to Units hereunder shall
be automatically modified and limited to the extent necessary so that Employee will not be deemed
to be in constructive receipt of income relating to the Units prior to the distribution and so that
Employee shall not be subject to any 409A Penalties.

          (b) Fractional Units and Shares. The number of Units credited to Employee’s Account
shall include fractional Units calculated to at least three decimal places, unless otherwise
determined by the Committee. Unless settlement is effected through a broker or agent that can
accommodate fractional shares (without requiring issuance of a fractional share by the Company),
upon settlement of the Units Employee shall be paid, in cash, an amount equal to the value of any
fractional share that would have otherwise been deliverable in settlement of such Units.

          (c) Tax Withholding. Employee shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Company,
or, in the absence of such arrangements, a Group Entity may deduct from any payment to be made to
Employee any amount necessary, to satisfy requirements of federal, state, local, or foreign tax law
to withhold taxes or other amounts with respect to the lapse of the risk of forfeiture (including
FICA due upon such lapse) or the settlement of the Units. Unless Employee has made separate
arrangements satisfactory to the Company, the Company may elect to withhold shares deliverable in
settlement of the Units having a fair market value (as determined by the Committee) equal to the
amount of such tax liability required to be withheld in

7

 

connection with the settlement of the Units, but the Company shall not be obligated to withhold
such Shares.

          (d) Statements. An individual statement of Employee’s Account will be issued to
Employee at such times as may be determined by the Company. Such a statement shall reflect the
number of Units credited to Employee’s Account, transactions therein during the period covered by
the statement, and other information deemed relevant by the Committee. Such a statement may be
combined with or include information regarding other plans and compensatory arrangements for
employees. Employee’s statements shall be deemed a part of this Agreement, and shall evidence the
Company’s obligations in respect of Units, including the number of Units credited as a result of
Dividend Equivalents (if any). Any statement containing an error shall not, however, represent a
binding obligation to the extent of such error, notwithstanding the inclusion of such statement as
part of this Agreement.

          9. MISCELLANEOUS.

          (a) Binding Agreement; Written Amendments. This Agreement shall be binding upon the
heirs, executors, administrators and successors of the parties. This Agreement and the Plan, and
any deferral election separately filed with the Company relating to the grant of Units under the
Agreement, constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the Units, and
supersede any prior agreements or documents with respect thereto. No amendment, alteration,
suspension, discontinuation, or termination of this Agreement which may impose any additional
obligation upon the Company or materially impair the rights of Employee with respect to the Units
shall be valid unless in each instance such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuation, or
termination is expressed in a written instrument duly executed in the name and on behalf of the
Company and by Employee.

          (b) No Promise of Employment. The Units and the granting thereof shall not constitute
or be evidence of any agreement or understanding, express or implied, that Employee has a right to
continue as an officer or employee of the Company for any period of time, or at any particular rate
of compensation.

          (c) Unfunded Plan. Any provision for distribution in settlement of Employee’s Account
hereunder shall be by means of bookkeeping entries on the books of the Company and shall not create
in Employee or any Beneficiary any right to, or claim against any, specific assets of the Company,
nor result in the creation of any trust or escrow account for Employee. With respect to any
entitlement of Employee or any Beneficiary to any distribution hereunder, Employee or such
Beneficiary shall be a general creditor of the Company.

          (d) Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES.

          (e) Legal Compliance. Employee agrees to take any action the Company reasonably deems
necessary in order to comply with federal and state laws, or the rules and regulations of the
NASDAQ Global Market or any other stock exchange, or any other obligation of the Company or
Employee relating to the Units or this Agreement.

8

 

          (f) Notices. Any notice to be given the Company under this Agreement shall be
addressed to the Company at 12 East 49th Street, 31st Floor, New York, New
York 100017 Attention: Corporate Secretary, and any notice to the Employee shall be addressed to
the Employee at Employee’s address as then appearing in the records of the Company.

To the Purchaser(s) named in

Schedule A hereto

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     This Third Supplement to Note Purchase Agreements (this “Supplement” or “Third Supplement") is
among NRP (Operating) LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company"), and the
institutional investors named on Schedule A attached hereto (the “Purchasers").

     Reference is hereby made to the separate and several Note Purchase Agreements, each dated as
of June 19, 2003, as amended and supplemented from time to time (the “Note Purchase
Agreements"), between the Company and the respective purchasers listed on Schedule A thereto. All
capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meaning as specified in the Note
Purchase Agreements. Reference is further made to Section 4.13 of the Note Purchase Agreements
which requires that, prior to the delivery of any Additional Notes, the Company and each Additional
Purchaser shall execute and deliver a Supplement.

     The Company hereby agrees with the Purchasers as follows:

     1. Authorization of Notes. The Company has authorized the issue and sale of (i) $150,000,000
aggregate principal amount of its 8.38% Senior Notes, Series F, due March 25, 2019 (the “Series F
Notes"), and (ii) $50,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 8.92% Senior Notes, Series G, due
March 25, 2024 (the “Series G Notes", and together with the Series F Notes, the “2009 Notes"). The
2009 Notes, together with the Notes previously issued pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreements and
each series of Additional Notes which may from time to time hereafter be issued pursuant to the
provisions of Section 2.2 of the Note Purchase Agreements, are collectively referred to as the
“Notes” (such term shall also include any such notes issued in substitution therefor pursuant to
Section 13 of the Note Purchase Agreements). The 2009 Notes shall be substantially in the form set
out in Exhibits 1-A and 1-B hereto, respectively, with such changes therefrom, if any, as may be
approved by the Purchaser(s) and the Company.

     The interest rate on each of the 2009 Notes is subject to periodic adjustment as provided
therein.

     2. Sale and Purchase of Notes. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and as set forth in
the Note Purchase Agreements and on the basis of the representations and warranties hereinafter set
forth, the Company agrees to issue and sell to each Purchaser, and each Purchaser

 

 

			
	NRP (Operating) LLC
	 	Third Supplement

agrees to
purchase from the Company, 2009 Notes in the principal amount and of the respective series and set
forth opposite such Purchaser’s name on Schedule A hereto at a price of 100% of the principal
amount thereof on the closing date hereafter mentioned.

     3. Closing. The sale and purchase of the 2009 Notes to be purchased by each Purchaser shall
occur at the offices of Chapman and Cutler LLP, 111 West Monroe Street, Chicago, Illinois 60603, at
10:00 a.m. Chicago time, at a closing (the “Closing") on March 25, 2009 or, on such other
Business Day thereafter on or prior to March 27, 2009, as may be agreed upon by the Company and the
Purchasers. At the Closing, the Company will deliver to each Purchaser the 2009 Notes of each
series to be purchased by such Purchaser in the form of a single 2009 Note (or such greater number
of 2009 Notes of the appropriate series in denominations of at least $250,000 as such Purchaser may
request) dated the date of the Closing and registered in such Purchaser’s name (or in the name of
such Purchaser’s nominee), against delivery by such Purchaser to the Company or its order of
immediately available funds in the amount of the purchase price therefor by wire transfer of
immediately available funds for the account of the Company to account number 01561106604 at The
Huntington National Bank, 919 Fifth Avenue, Huntington, West Virginia 25701, ABA Number 044000024.
If at the Closing the Company shall fail to tender such 2009 Notes to any Purchaser as provided
above in this Section 3, or any of the conditions specified in Section 4 shall not have been
fulfilled to any Purchaser’s satisfaction, such Purchaser shall, at such Purchaser’s election, be
relieved of all further obligations under this Supplement, without thereby waiving any rights such
Purchaser may have by reason of such failure or such nonfulfillment.

     4. Conditions to Closing. The obligation of each Purchaser to purchase and pay for the 2009
Notes to be sold to such Purchaser at the Closing is subject to the fulfillment to such Purchaser’s
satisfaction, prior to such Closing, of the conditions set forth in Section 4 of the Note Purchase
Agreements (but adjusted to reflect the 2009 Notes to be purchased at such Closing), except that
the representations and warranties set forth in Section 5 of the Note Purchase Agreements and
Section 5 of the Subsidiary Guarantee shall be modified as set forth in Exhibit A hereto.

     5. Required Prepayments. The Company will prepay the 2009 Notes on the dates and in the
principal amounts as set forth on Schedule 5 attached hereto at par and without payment of the
Make-Whole Amount or any premium, provided that upon any partial prepayment or purchase of the 2009
Notes pursuant to Sections 6, 7 or 8 of this Supplement, the principal amount of each required
prepayment of the 2009 Notes becoming due under this Section 5 of this Supplement on and after the
date of such prepayment or purchase shall be reduced in the same proportion as the aggregate unpaid
principal amount of the 2009 Notes is reduced as a result of such prepayment or purchase.

     6. Optional Prepayments with Make-Whole Amount. The Company may, at its option, upon notice
as provided below, prepay at any time after the Closing all, or from time to time any part of, the
2009 Notes, in an aggregate principal amount not less than $5,000,000, in the case of
a partial prepayment, at 100% of the principal amount so prepaid, plus the applicable Make-Whole
Amount with respect to the 2009 Notes determined for the prepayment date with respect to such
principal amount. The Company will give each holder of 2009 Notes written notice of

-2-

 

			
	NRP (Operating) LLC
	 	Third Supplement

each optional
prepayment under this Section 6 of this Supplement not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days
prior to the date fixed for such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify such date, the
aggregate principal amount of the 2009 Notes to be prepaid on such date, the principal amount of
each 2009 Note held by such holder to be prepaid (determined in accordance with Section 9 of this
Supplement), and the interest to be paid on the prepayment date with respect to such principal
amount being prepaid, and shall be accompanied by a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer as to
the estimated Make-Whole Amount with respect to the 2009 Notes due in connection with such
prepayment (calculated as if the date of such notice were the date of the prepayment), setting
forth the details of such computation. Two Business Days prior to such prepayment, the Company
shall deliver to each holder of 2009 Notes a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer specifying
the calculation of such Make-Whole Amount as of the specified prepayment date.

     7. Prepayment in Connection with Asset Dispositions. (a) Subject to subparagraph (b) below,
in the event of any Debt Prepayment Application pursuant to Section 10.7 of the Note Purchase
Agreements, the Company shall offer to prepay each outstanding 2009 Note in a principal amount
which equals the 2009 Ratable Portion (as defined below) for such 2009 Note (which offer shall be
in writing and shall offer to make such prepayment on a Business Day which is not less than 30 and
not more than 60 days after the date of the notice of offer (the “Disposition Prepayment Date")),
together with accrued interest thereon to the date of such prepayment. Each holder of a 2009 Note
shall notify the Company of such holder’s acceptance or rejection of such offer within 10 Business
Days of receipt thereof by giving notice of such acceptance or rejection to the Company, provided,
however, that any holder who fails to so notify the Company within 10 Business Days of receipt of
the notice of offer of prepayment shall be deemed to have rejected such offer. The Company shall
prepay on the Disposition Prepayment Date the 2009 Ratable Portion of each 2009 Note held by a
holder who has accepted such offer in accordance with this Section 7, together with accrued
interest thereon to the date of such prepayment (but without the Make-Whole Amount). The term
“2009 Ratable Portion” for any 2009 Note means, with respect to a Debt Prepayment Application, an
amount equal to the product of (x) the Net Proceeds Amount being applied to the payment of Senior
Debt multiplied by (y) a fraction the numerator of which is the outstanding principal amount of
such 2009 Note and the denominator of which is the sum of (i) the aggregate principal amount of the
2009 Notes, plus (without duplication) (ii) the aggregate principal amount of any other Senior Debt
that is being paid as part of such Debt Prepayment Application.

     (b) In connection with a Debt Prepayment Application pursuant to Section 13(d) of this
Supplement where the aggregate Disposition Value of all property subject to one or more Asset
Dispositions from and after the date of Closing (as defined in Section 3 of this Supplement)
exceeds 35% of Consolidated Total Assets, as determined in accordance with said Section 13(d) (the
percentage of such Disposition Value in excess of said 35% being referred to as the “Excess
Disposition Value Percentage” and the Net Proceeds Amount derived from such Excess Disposition
Value Percentage being referred to as the “Second Level Net Proceeds Amount”), the Company shall
apply the Second Level Net Proceeds Amount to prepay each outstanding Note
of Series A-G, inclusive, in a principal amount equal to the product of (x) the Second Level Net
Proceeds Amount being applied to the payment of Senior Debt multiplied by (y) a fraction the
numerator of which is the outstanding principal amount of such Note and the denominator of

-3-

 

			
	NRP (Operating) LLC
	 	Third Supplement

which is
the sum of (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Notes of Series A-G, inclusive, plus (without
duplication) (ii) the aggregate principal amount of any other Senior Debt that is being paid as
part of such Debt Prepayment Application. Each such prepayment of Series A through G Notes
pursuant to this subparagraph (b) shall be pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of Section
8.2 of the Note Purchase Agreements with respect to the Series A, B and C Notes, Section 6 of the
First Supplement dated as of July 19, 2005 with respect to the Series D Notes, Section 6 of the
Second Supplement dated as of March 28, 2007 with respect to the Series E Notes and Section 6 of
this Supplement with respect to the Series F and G Notes.

     8. Prepayment in Connection with Change in Control.

     (a) Notice of Change in Control or Control Event. The Company will, within five (5) Business
Days after any Responsible Officer has knowledge of the occurrence of any Change in Control or
Control Event, give written notice (the “Change of Control Notice") of such Change in Control or
Control Event to each holder of 2009 Notes unless notice in respect of such Change in Control (or
the Change of Control contemplated by such Control Event) shall have been given pursuant to
subparagraph (c) of this Section 8 of this Supplement. Such Change of Control Notice shall contain
and constitute an offer to prepay the 2009 Notes as described in Section 8(c) of this Supplement
and shall be accompanied by the certificate described in Section 8(g) of this Supplement.

     (b) Condition to Company Action. The Company will not take any action that consummates or
finalizes a Change in Control unless (i) at least 30 days prior to such action it shall have given
to each holder of 2009 Notes written notice containing and constituting an offer to prepay the 2009
Notes as described in subparagraph (c) of this Section 8 of this Supplement, accompanied by the
certificate described in subparagraph (g) of this Section 8 of this Supplement, and (ii)
contemporaneously with such action, it prepays all 2009 Notes required to be prepaid in accordance
with this Section 8 of this Supplement.

     (c) Offer to Prepay Notes. The offer to prepay 2009 Notes contemplated by paragraph (a) and
(b) of this Section 8 of this Supplement shall be an offer to prepay, in accordance with and
subject to this Section 8 of this Supplement, all, but not less than all, the 2009 Notes held by
each holder (in this case only, “holder” in respect of any 2009 Note registered in the name of a
nominee for a disclosed beneficial owner shall mean such beneficial owner) on a date specified in
such Change of Control Notice (the “Proposed Prepayment Date"). If such Proposed Prepayment Date
is in connection with an offer contemplated by subparagraph (a) of this Section 8 of this
Supplement, such date shall be not less than 30 days and not more than 120 days after the date of
such offer (if the Proposed Prepayment Date shall not be specified in such offer, the Proposed
Prepayment Date shall be the first Business Day after the 45th day after the date of such offer).

     (d) Acceptance. A holder of 2009 Notes may accept the offer to prepay made pursuant to this
Section 8 of this Supplement by causing a notice of such acceptance to be delivered to the
Company not later than 15 days after receipt by such holder of the most recent offer of prepayment.
A failure by a holder of 2009 Notes to respond to an offer to prepay made pursuant

-4-

 

			
	NRP (Operating) LLC
	 	Third Supplement

to this Section
8 of this Supplement shall be deemed to constitute a rejection of such offer by such holder.

     (e) Prepayment. Prepayment of the 2009 Notes to be prepaid pursuant to this Section 8 of this
Supplement shall be at 100% of the principal amount of the 2009 Notes together with accrued and
unpaid interest thereon. The prepayment shall be made on the Proposed Prepayment Date except as
provided in subparagraph (f) of this Section 8 of this Supplement.

     (f) Deferral Pending Change in Control. The obligation of the Company to prepay Notes
pursuant to the offers required by subparagraph (c) and accepted in accordance with subparagraph
(d) of this Section 8 of this Supplement is subject to the occurrence of the Change in Control in
respect of which such offers and acceptances shall have been made. In the event that such Change
in Control has not occurred on the Proposed Prepayment Date in respect thereof, the prepayment
shall be deferred until, and shall be made on, the date on which such Change in Control occurs.
The Company shall keep each holder of 2009 Notes reasonably and timely informed of (i) any such
deferral of the date of prepayment, (ii) the date on which such Change in Control and the
prepayment are expected to occur, and (iii) any determination by the Company that efforts to effect
such Change in Control have ceased or been abandoned (in which case the offers and acceptances made
pursuant to this Section 8 of this Supplement in respect of such Change in Control shall be deemed
rescinded).

     (g) Officer’s Certificate. Each offer to prepay the 2009 Notes pursuant to this Section 8 of
this Supplement shall be accompanied by a certificate, executed by the Senior Financial Officer of
the Company and dated the date of such offer, specifying: (i) the Proposed Prepayment Date; (ii)
that such offer is made pursuant to this Section 8 of this Supplement; (iii) the principal amount
of each 2009 Note offered to be prepaid (which shall be 100% of each such 2009 Note); (iv) the
interest that would be due on each 2009 Note offered to be prepaid, accrued to the Proposed
Prepayment Date; (v) that the conditions of this Section 8 of this Supplement have been fulfilled;
and (vi) in reasonable detail, the nature and date or proposed date of the Change in Control.

     (h) Certain Definitions. “Change in Control” shall be deemed to have occurred if

     (i) the Parent ceases to own directly all of the membership interests of the Company,

     (ii) the General Partner ceases to own directly all of the general partner interests of
the Parent, or

     (iii) Corbin J. Robertson, Jr., the WPP Group, NRP Investment L.P. and/or one
or more of their direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiaries cease to own, in the
aggregate, more than 50% of the partnership interests of the General Partner.

     “Control Event” means (i) the execution by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or
Affiliates of any agreement or letter of intent with respect to any proposed transaction or event

-5-

 

			
	NRP (Operating) LLC
	 	Third Supplement

or series of transactions or events which, individually or in the aggregate, may reasonably be
expected to result in a Change in Control, or

     (ii) the execution of any written agreement which, when fully performed by the parties
thereto, would result in a Change in Control.

     (ii) All calculations contemplated in this Section 8 of this Supplement involving the capital
stock, limited liability company or other equity interest of any Person shall be made with the
assumption that all convertible securities of such Person then outstanding and all convertible
securities issuable upon the exercise of any warrants, options and other rights outstanding at such
time were converted at such time and that all options, warrants and similar rights to acquire
shares of capital stock or limited liability company or other equity interest of such Person were
exercised at such time.

     9. Allocation of Partial Prepayments. (a) In the case of each partial prepayment of a series
of 2009 Notes pursuant to Section 5 of this Supplement, the principal amount of such series of 2009
Notes to be prepaid shall be allocated among all of such series of 2009 Notes at the time
outstanding in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts
thereof.

     (b) In the case of each partial prepayment of the 2009 Notes pursuant to Section 6 of this
Supplement, the principal amount of the 2009 Notes to be prepaid shall be allocated among all of
the 2009 Notes at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective
unpaid principal amounts thereof not theretofore called for prepayment.

     10. Maturity; Surrender, Etc. In the case of each prepayment of 2009 Notes pursuant to
Sections 5, 6, 7 or 8 of this Supplement, the principal amount of each 2009 Note to be prepaid
shall mature and become due and payable on the date fixed for such prepayment, together with
interest on such principal amount accrued to such date and the applicable Make-Whole Amount, if
any. From and after such date, unless the Company shall fail to pay such principal amount when so
due and payable, together with the interest and Make-Whole Amount, if any, as aforesaid, interest
on such principal amount shall cease to accrue. Any 2009 Note paid or prepaid in full shall be
surrendered to the Company and cancelled and shall not be reissued, and no 2009 Note shall be
issued in lieu of any prepaid principal amount of any 2009 Note.

     11. Purchase of Notes. The Company will not and will not permit any Affiliate to purchase,
redeem, prepay or otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, any of the outstanding 2009 Notes
except upon the payment or prepayment of the 2009 Notes in accordance with the terms of the Note
Purchase Agreements, this Supplement and the 2009 Notes. The Company will promptly cancel all 2009
Notes acquired by it or any Affiliate pursuant to any payment, prepayment or purchase of 2009 Notes
pursuant to any provision of the Note Purchase Agreements or this Supplement and no 2009 Notes may
be issued in substitution or exchange for any such 2009 Notes.

     12. Make-Whole Amount. The term “Make-Whole Amount” means, with respect to any 2009 Note, an
amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining

-6-

 

			
	NRP (Operating) LLC
	 	Third Supplement

Scheduled Payments
with respect to the Called Principal of such 2009 Note over the amount of such Called Principal,
provided that the Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero. For the purposes of
determining the Make-Whole Amount, the following terms have the following meanings:

     “Called Principal” means, with respect to any 2009 Note, the principal of such 2009
Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 6 of this Supplement or has become or is
declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1 of the Note Purchase
Agreements, as the context requires.

     “Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any 2009 Note, the
amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called
Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to
such Called Principal, in accordance with accepted financial practice and at a discount
factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on the 2009 Notes is
payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal.

     “Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any 2009 Note, .50%
over the yield to maturity implied by (i) the yields reported as of 10:00 A.M. (New York
City time) on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such
Called Principal, on the display designated as “Page PX1” (or such other display as may
replace Page PX1) on Bloomberg Financial Markets for the most recently issued actively
traded on the run U.S. Treasury securities having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average
Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date, or (ii) if such yields are not
reported as of such time or the yields reported as of such time are not ascertainable
(including by way of interpolation), the Treasury Constant Maturity Series Yields reported,
for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day
preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve
Statistical Release H.15 (or any comparable successor publication) for U.S. Treasury
securities having a constant maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called
Principal as of such Settlement Date. In the case of each determination under clause (i) or
clause (ii), as the case may be, of the preceding paragraph, such implied yield will be
determined, if necessary, by (a) converting U.S. Treasury bill quotations to bond equivalent
yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (b) interpolating linearly between
(1) the applicable U.S. Treasury security with the maturity closest to and greater than such
Remaining Average Life and (2) the applicable U.S. Treasury security with the maturity
closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be
rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable
2009 Note.

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

-7-

 

			
	NRP (Operating) LLC
	 	Third Supplement

between the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal and the scheduled due date
of such Remaining Scheduled Payment.

     “Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any 2009
Note, all payments of such Called Principal of such series and interest thereon that would
be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such
Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date, provided that if such Settlement
Date is not a date on which interest payments are due to be made under the terms of the 2009
Notes of such series, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will
be reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid
on such Settlement Date pursuant to Section 6 of this Supplement or Section 12.1 of the Note
Purchase Agreements. Solely for purposes of determining the “Remaining Scheduled Payments,”
the interest rate for the Series F Notes shall be deemed to be 8.38% per annum and for the
Series G Notes shall be deemed to be 8.92% per annum.

     “Settlement Date” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any 2009 Note, the
date on which such Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 6 of this
Supplement or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to
Section 12.1 of the Note Purchase Agreements, as the context requires.

     13. Additional Covenants. In addition to and without limiting the covenants in Section 9 and
10 of the Note Purchase Agreements, the Company covenants that so long as any of the 2009 Notes are
outstanding:

     (a) The Company will not and will not permit any Subsidiary to (a) become a Person described
or designated in the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List of the Office of
Foreign Assets Control or in Section 1 of the Anti-Terrorism Order or (b) engage in any dealings or
transactions with any such Person. “Anti-Terrorism Order” shall have the meaning set forth in
Section 5.16 in Exhibit A to this Supplement.

     (b) Notwithstanding Sections 10.3 or 10.4 of the Note Purchase Agreements or any other
provision of the Note Purchase Agreements, the Company will not, and will not permit any of its
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly create, incur, assume or permit to exist (upon the
happening of a contingency or otherwise) any Lien on any property of the Company or any Subsidiary
which may otherwise be permitted by Section 10.3 of the Note Purchase Agreements, to secure any
amounts owed or outstanding under the Bank Agreement unless the Notes and the Note Purchase
Agreements are also concurrently equally and ratably secured pursuant to documentation satisfactory
to the Required Holders.

     (c) The Company will not permit as of the end of each fiscal quarter, the ratio of
Consolidated Debt (determined as of such fiscal quarter end date) to Consolidated EBITDDA
(determined as of such fiscal quarter end date for the twelve months then ended), to exceed
4.00:1.00.

-8-

 

			
	NRP (Operating) LLC
	 	Third Supplement

     (d) Except as permitted under Section 10.2 of the Note Purchase Agreements, the Company will
not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, make any Asset Disposition unless:

     (i) in the good faith opinion of the Company or Subsidiary making the Asset
Disposition, the Asset Disposition is in exchange for consideration having a fair market
value at least equal to that of the property exchanged;

     (ii) immediately after giving effect to the Asset Disposition, no Default or Event of
Default would exist;

     (iii) immediately after giving effect to such Asset Disposition, the Company could
incur at least $1.00 of additional Funded Debt pursuant to Section 10.6(a)(iii) of the Note
Purchase Agreements; and

     (iv) the sum of (i) the Disposition Value of the property subject to such Asset
Disposition, plus (ii) the aggregate Disposition Value for all other property that was the
subject of an Asset Disposition occurring on or after the date of Closing (as defined in
Section 3 of this Supplement) would not exceed 35% of Consolidated Total Assets determined
as of the end of the most recently ended calendar month preceding such Asset Disposition.

     To the extent that the Net Proceeds Amount consisting of cash for any Transfer to a Person
other than the Company or Subsidiary is applied to a Debt Prepayment Application or applied or
committed to be applied to a Property Reinvestment Application within one year after such Transfer
(and if so committed, in fact applied within twelve (12) months of such commitment), then such
Transfer (or, if less than all such Net Proceeds Amount is applied as contemplated hereinabove, the
pro rata percentage thereof which corresponds to the Net Proceeds Amount so applied), only for the
purpose of determining compliance with subsection (iv) of this Section 13(d) as of any date, shall
be deemed not to be an Asset Disposition. Further, for purposes of Section 7(b) and this Section
13(d), a Transfer of property consisting of timber shall be deemed not to be an Asset Disposition
so long as the aggregate Disposition Value of such property subject of a Transfer from and after
the date of Closing (as defined in Section 3 of this Supplement) does not exceed $30,000,000.

In accordance with the proviso to Section 2.2(ii) of the Note Purchase Agreements, the covenants
set forth in this Section 13 shall inure to the benefit of all holders of Notes so long as the 2009
Notes issued pursuant to this Third Supplement remain outstanding. A default by the Company in the
performance of or compliance with any of Section 13(b), (c) or (d) above shall be deemed to be an
Event of Default under Section 11(c) of the Note Purchase Agreements, for all purposes under the
Note Purchase Agreements and under this Supplement.

     14. Representations and Warranties of the Purchasers. (a) Each Purchaser represents and
warrants that the representations and warranties set forth in Section 6.1 of the Note Purchase
Agreements are true and correct on the date hereof with respect to the purchase of the 2009 Notes

Supplemental Representations

     The Company represents and warrants to each Purchaser that except as hereinafter set forth in
this Exhibit A, each of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 5 of the Note
Purchase Agreements is true and correct as of the date hereof with respect to the 2009 Notes with
the same force and effect as if each reference to “Series A, B or C Notes” set forth therein was
modified to refer the “Series F and G Notes” and each reference to “this Agreement” therein was
modified to refer to the Note Purchase Agreements as supplemented by the First Supplement dated
July 19, 2005, by the Second Supplement dated as March 28, 2007 and by the Third Supplement. The
Section references hereinafter set forth correspond to the similar sections of the Note Purchase
Agreements which are supplemented hereby:

     Section 5.3. Disclosure. The Company, through its agent, SPP Capital Partners, LLC and BB&T
Capital Markets Inc., has delivered to each Purchaser a copy of a Confidential Direct Private
Placement Memorandum dated February 2009 (the “Memorandum”), relating to the transactions
contemplated by the Third Supplement. The Note Purchase Agreements, the Memorandum, the documents,
certificates or other writings delivered to each Purchaser by or on behalf of the Company in
connection with the transactions contemplated by the Note Purchase Agreements and the Third
Supplement and the financial statements listed in Schedule 5.5 to the Third Supplement, taken as a
whole, do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which
they were made. Since December 31, 2008, there has been no change in the financial condition,
operations, business, properties or prospects of the Company or any Subsidiary except changes that
individually or in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.

     Section 5.4. Organization and Ownership of Shares of Subsidiaries. (a) Schedule 5.4 to the
Third Supplement contains (except as noted therein) complete and correct lists of the Subsidiaries,
showing, as to each Subsidiary, the correct name thereof, the jurisdiction of its organization, and
the percentage of shares of each class of its capital stock or similar equity interests outstanding
owned by the Company and each other Subsidiary.

     Section 5.13. Private Offering by the Company. Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its
behalf has offered the 2009 Notes or any similar securities for sale to, or solicited any offer to
buy any of the same from, or otherwise approached or negotiated in respect thereof with, any Person
other than the Purchasers and not more than 41 other Institutional Investors, each of which has
been offered the 2009 Notes at a private sale for investment. Neither the Company nor anyone
acting on its behalf has taken, or will take, any action that would subject the issuance or sale of
the Notes to the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act.

     Section 5.14. Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations. The Company will apply the proceeds of the
sale of the 2009 Notes as set forth in Section I.C. (Transaction Summary) of the Memorandum. No
part of the proceeds from the sale of the 2009 Notes pursuant to the Third Supplement will be used,
directly or indirectly, for the purpose of buying or carrying any margin stock within the meaning
of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (12 CFR 222), or for the
purpose of buying or carrying or trading in any securities under

Exhibit A

(to Supplement)

 

 

such circumstances as to involve the Company in a violation of Regulation X of said Board (12 CFR
224) or to involve any broker or dealer in a violation of Regulation T of said Board (12 CFR 220).
Margin stock does not constitute more than 1.00% of the value of the consolidated assets of the
Company and its Subsidiaries and the Company does not have any present intention that margin stock
will constitute more than 1.00% of the value of such assets. As used in this Section, the terms
“margin stock” and “purpose of buying or carrying” shall have the meanings assigned to them in said
Regulation U.

     Section 5.15. Existing Debt; Future Liens. (a) Schedule 5.15 to the Third Supplement sets
forth a complete and correct list of all outstanding Debt of the Company and the Subsidiaries as of
March 1, 2009, since which date there has been no Material change in the amounts, interest rates,
sinking funds, installment payments or maturities of the Debt of the Company or the Subsidiaries.
Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default and no waiver of default is currently in
effect, in the payment of any principal or interest on any Debt of the Company or such Subsidiary
and no event or condition exists with respect to any Debt of the Company or any Subsidiary that
would permit (or that with notice or the lapse of time, or both, would permit) one or more Persons
to cause such Debt to become due and payable before its stated maturity or before its regularly
scheduled dates of payment.

     Section 5.16. Foreign Assets Control Regulations, Etc. (a) Neither the sale of the 2009 Notes
by the Company hereunder nor its use of the proceeds thereof will violate the Trading with the
Enemy Act, as amended, or any of the foreign assets control regulations of the United States
Treasury Department (31 CFR, Subtitle B, Chapter V, as amended) or any enabling legislation or
executive order relating thereto.

     (b) Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary (i) is a Person described or designated in the
Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List of the Office of Foreign Assets Control or
in Section 1 of the Anti-Terrorism Order or (ii) engages in any dealings or transactions with any
such Person. The Company and its Subsidiaries are in compliance, in all material respects, with
the USA Patriot Act.

     (c) No part of the proceeds from the sale of the 2009 Notes hereunder will be used, directly
or indirectly, for any payments to any governmental official or employee, political party, official
of a political party, candidate for political office, or anyone else acting in an official
capacity, in order to obtain, retain or direct business or obtain any improper advantage, in
violation of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended, assuming in all
cases that such Act applies to the Company.

     As used in this Section 5.16, “Anti-Terrorism Order” means Executive Order No. 13224 of
September 24, 2001, Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions with Persons Who Commit,
Threaten to Commit or Support Terrorism, 66 U.S. Fed. Reg. 49, 079 (2001), as amended; and “USA
Patriot Act” means United States Public Law 107-56, Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing
Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism (USA PATRIOT ACT) Act of 2001, as
amended from time to time, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder from time to time
in effect.

annum from the date hereof, payable semi-annually, on the 25th day of March and September in each
year, commencing with the March or September next succeeding the date hereof, until the principal

     In the event the Leverage Ratio (as defined below) exceeds 3.75 to 1.0 as of the end of any
fiscal quarter of the Company (each, a “High Leverage Quarter”), then, in addition to all other
interest accruing on this Note (and all rights of the holders of Notes under Section 10.6 of the
Note Purchase Agreements (as defined in the Supplement)), additional interest in the amount of
2.00% per annum (the “Additional Interest”) shall accrue on this Note, commencing on (and

quarter in respect of which such Company Reports were delivered. “Leverage Ratio” means, as of the
end of any fiscal quarter of the Company, the ratio of Consolidated Debt at the end of such fiscal
quarter to Consolidated EBITDDA for the twelve months then ended.
