          SECTION 6. Affirmation of Subsidiary Guarantors. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby
consents to the amendments to the Credit Agreement effected hereby, and hereby confirms and agrees
that, notwithstanding the effectiveness of this Amendment No. 1, the obligations of such Subsidiary
Guarantor contained in Article VIII of the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, or in any other
Loan Documents to which it is a party are, and shall remain, in full force and effect and are
hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects, except that, on and after the effectiveness of this
Amendment No. 1, each reference in Article VIII of the Credit Agreement and in each of the other
Loan Documents to “the Agreement”, “thereunder”, “thereof” or words of like import shall mean and
be a reference to the Credit Agreement, as modified by this Amendment No. 1. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Collateral Documents to which such Subsidiary Guarantor is a party
and all of the Collateral described therein do, and shall continue to secure, payment of all of the
Secured Obligations (in each case, as defined therein).

          SECTION 7. Reference to and Effect on the Loan Documents. (a) On and after the
effectiveness of this Amendment No. 1, each reference in the Credit Agreement to “hereunder”,
“hereof” or words of like import referring to the Credit Agreement, and each reference in the other
transaction documents to the “Credit Agreement”, “thereunder”, “thereof” or words of like import
referring to the Credit Agreement, shall mean and be a reference to the Credit Agreement as
modified by this Amendment No. 1.

          (b) The Credit Agreement, the Notes and each of the other Loan Documents, as specifically
amended by this Amendment No. 1, are and shall continue to be in full force and effect and are
hereby in all respects ratified and confirmed. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the Collateral Documents and all of the Collateral described therein do and shall continue to
secure the payment of all Obligations of the Loan Parties under the Loan Documents, in each case as
amended by this Amendment No. 1.

          (c) The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment No. 1 shall not, except as
expressly provided herein, operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of any Lender or any
Agent under any of the Loan Documents, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of any of the Loan
Documents.

          SECTION 8. Execution in Counterparts. This Amendment No. 1 may be executed in any
number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when
so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute but
one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this
Amendment No. 1 by telecopier or electronic mail in “Portable Document Format” (PDF) shall be
effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Amendment No. 1.

          SECTION 9. Governing Law. This Amendment No. 1 shall be governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, and shall be subject to the jurisdictional and
service provisions of the Credit Agreement, as if this were a part of the Credit Agreement.

          SECTION 10. Entire Agreement; Modification. This Amendment No. 1 constitutes the
entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, there being no
other

 

11

agreements or understandings, oral, written or otherwise, respecting such subject matter, any
such agreement or understanding being superseded hereby, shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, and may not be amended,
extended or otherwise modified, except in a writing executed in whole or in counterparts by each
party hereto.
