     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and other benefits accruing to each
Guarantor, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each Guarantor hereby
makes the following representations and warranties to the Secured Creditors and hereby covenants
and agrees with each Secured Creditor as follows:

     1. Each Guarantor, jointly and severally, irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally
guarantees as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety: (i) to the Lender Creditors the full
and prompt payment when due (whether at the stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration,
acceleration, demand or otherwise) of (x) the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the
Notes issued by, and the Loans made to, the Borrower under the Credit Agreement, and all
reimbursement obligations and Unpaid Drawings with respect to Letters of Credit and (y) all other
obligations (including, without limitation, obligations which, but for the automatic stay under
Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, would become due), liabilities and indebtedness owing by the
Borrower to the Lender Creditors under the Credit Agreement and each other Credit Document to which
the Borrower is a party (including, without limitation, indemnities, Fees and interest thereon
(including, without limitation, any interest accruing after the commencement of any bankruptcy,
insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding at the rate provided for in the Credit Agreement,
whether or not such interest is an allowed claim in any such proceeding), whether now existing or
hereafter incurred under, arising out of or in connection with the Credit Agreement and any such
other Credit Document and the due performance and compliance by the Borrower with all of the terms,
conditions, covenants and agreements contained in all such Credit Documents (all such principal,
premium, interest, liabilities, indebtedness and obligations under this clause (i), except to the
extent consisting of obligations or liabilities with respect to Interest Rate Protection Agreements
and Other Hedging Agreements, being herein collectively called the “Credit Document
Obligations”); and (ii) to each Other Creditor the full and prompt payment when due (whether at
the stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise) of all
obligations (including, without limitation, obligations which, but for the automatic stay under
Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, would become due), liabilities and indebtedness (including,
without limitation, any interest accruing after the commencement of any bankruptcy, insolvency,
receivership or similar proceeding at the rate provided for in the respective Interest Rate
Protection Agreements or Other Hedging Agreements, whether or not such interest is an allowed claim
in any such proceeding) owing by the Borrower and/or one or more of its Subsidiaries under any
Interest Rate Protection Agreement or Other Hedging Agreement, whether now in existence or
hereafter arising, and the due performance and compliance by the Borrower and such Subsidiaries
with all of the terms, conditions, covenants and agreements contained in each Interest Rate
Protection Agreement and Other Hedging Agreement to which it is a party (all such obligations,
liabilities and indebtedness being herein collectively called the “Other Obligations” and,
together with the Credit Document Obligations, the “Guaranteed Obligations”). As used
herein, the term “Guaranteed Party” shall mean the Borrower and each Subsidiary thereof
party to any Interest Rate Protection Agreement or Other Hedging Agreement with an Other Creditor.
Each Guarantor understands, agrees and confirms that the Secured Creditors may enforce this
Guaranty up to the full amount of the Guaranteed Obligations against such Guarantor without
proceeding against any other Guarantor, the Borrower, any other Guaranteed Party, against any
security for the Guaranteed Obligations, or under any other guaranty covering all or a portion of
the Guaranteed Obligations.

2

 

     2. Additionally, each Guarantor, jointly and severally, unconditionally, absolutely and
irrevocably, guarantees the payment of any and all Guaranteed Obligations whether or not due or
payable by the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party upon the occurrence in respect of the
Borrower or any such other Guaranteed Party of any of the events specified in Section 10.05 of the
Credit Agreement, and unconditionally, absolutely and irrevocably, jointly and severally, promises
to pay such Guaranteed Obligations to the Secured Creditors, or order, on demand. This Guaranty
shall constitute a guaranty of payment and performance, and not of collection.

     3. The liability of each Guarantor hereunder is primary, absolute, joint and several, and
unconditional and is exclusive and independent of any security for or other guaranty of the
indebtedness of the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party whether executed by such Guarantor, any
other Guarantor, any other guarantor or by any other party, and the liability of each Guarantor
hereunder shall not be affected or impaired by any circumstance or occurrence whatsoever,
including, without limitation: (a) any direction as to application of payment by the Borrower or
any other Guaranteed Party 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 Guaranteed
Obligations, (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 Borrower or any other
Guaranteed Party, (e) the failure of a Guarantor to receive any benefit from or as a result of its
execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty, (f) any payment made to any Secured Creditor
on the indebtedness which any Secured Creditor repays the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party
pursuant to court order in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other debtor
relief proceeding, and each Guarantor waives any right to the deferral or modification of its
obligations hereunder by reason of any such proceeding, (g) any action or inaction by the Secured
Creditors as contemplated in Section 6 hereof or (h) any invalidity, recission,
irregularity or unenforceability of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or of any
security therefor.

     4. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of any other
Guarantor, any other guarantor, the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party, and a separate action
or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Guarantor whether or not action is brought
against any other Guarantor, any other guarantor, the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party and
whether or not any other Guarantor, any other guarantor, the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party
be joined in any such action or actions. Each Guarantor waives, to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, the benefits of any statute of limitations affecting its liability hereunder or the
enforcement thereof. Any payment by the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party or other
circumstance which operates to toll any statute of limitations as to the Borrower or any other
Guaranteed Party shall operate to toll the statute of limitations as to each Guarantor.

     5. Each Guarantor hereby waives (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) notice of
acceptance of this Guaranty and notice of the existence, creation or incurrence of any new or
additional liability to which it may apply, and waives promptness, diligence, presentment, demand
of payment, demand for performance, protest, notice of dishonor or nonpayment of any such
liabilities, suit or taking of other action by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured
Creditor against, and any other notice to, any party liable thereon (including

3

 

such Guarantor, any other Guarantor, any other guarantor, the Borrower or any other Guaranteed
Party) and each Guarantor further hereby waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal,
extension or accrual of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and notice or proof of reliance by any
Secured Creditor upon this Guaranty, and the Guaranteed Obligations shall conclusively be deemed to
have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended, modified, supplemented or
waived, in reliance upon this Guaranty.

     6. Any Secured Creditor may (except as shall be required by applicable statute and cannot be
waived) at any time and from time to time without the consent of, or notice to, any Guarantor,
without incurring responsibility to such Guarantor, without impairing or releasing the obligations
or liabilities of such Guarantor hereunder, upon or without any terms or conditions and in whole or
in part:

     (a) change the manner, place or terms of payment of, and/or change, increase or extend the
time of payment of, renew, increase, accelerate or alter, any of the Guaranteed Obligations
(including, without limitation, any increase or decrease in the rate of interest thereon or the
principal amount thereof), any security therefor, or any liability incurred directly or indirectly
in respect thereof, and the guaranty herein made shall apply to the Guaranteed Obligations as so
changed, extended, increased, accelerated, renewed or altered;

     (b) take and hold security for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations and sell, exchange,
release, surrender, impair, realize upon or otherwise deal with in any manner and in any order any
property or other collateral by whomsoever at any time pledged or mortgaged to secure, or howsoever
securing, the Guaranteed Obligations or any liabilities (including any of those hereunder) incurred
directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and/or any offset there against;

     (c) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Borrower, any other Guaranteed
Party, any other Credit Party, any Subsidiary thereof, any other guarantor of the Guaranteed
Obligations or others or otherwise act or refrain from acting;

     (d) release or substitute any one or more endorsers, Guarantors, other guarantors, the
Borrower, any other Guaranteed Party, or other obligors;

     (e) settle or compromise any of the Guaranteed Obligations, any security therefor or any
liability (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or
hereof, and may subordinate the payment of all or any part thereof to the payment of any liability
(whether due or not) of the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party to creditors of the Borrower or
such other Guaranteed Party other than the Secured Creditors;

     (f) apply any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever realized to any liability or liabilities of
the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party to the Secured Creditors regardless of what liabilities
of the Borrower or such other Guaranteed Party remain unpaid;

     (g) consent to or waive any breach of, or any act, omission or default under, any of the
Interest Rate Protection Agreements or Other Hedging Agreements, the Credit Documents or any of the
instruments or agreements referred to therein, or otherwise amend,

4

 

modify or supplement any of the Interest Rate Protection Agreements or Other Hedging
Agreements, the Credit Documents or any of such other instruments or agreements;

     (h) act or fail to act in any manner referred to in this Guaranty which may deprive such
Guarantor of its right to subrogation against the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party to recover
full indemnity for any payments made pursuant to this Guaranty; and/or

     (i) take any other action or omit to take any other action which would, under otherwise
applicable principles of common law, give rise to a legal or equitable discharge of such Guarantor
from its liabilities under this Guaranty.

     No invalidity, illegality, irregularity or unenforceability of all or any part of the
Guaranteed Obligations, the Credit Documents, the Interest Rate Protection Agreements and Other
Hedging Agreements or any other agreement or instrument relating to the Guaranteed Obligations or
of any security or guarantee therefor shall affect, impair or be a defense to this Guaranty, and
this Guaranty shall be primary, absolute and unconditional notwithstanding the occurrence of any
event or the existence of any other circumstances which might constitute a legal or equitable
discharge of a surety or guarantor except payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations.

     7. This Guaranty is a continuing one and all liabilities to which it applies or may apply
under the terms hereof shall be conclusively presumed to have been created in reliance hereon. No
failure or delay on the part of any Secured Creditor in exercising any right, power or privilege
hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right,
power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein expressly specified are cumulative
and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which any Secured Creditor would otherwise have. No
notice to or demand on any Guarantor in any case shall entitle such Guarantor to any other further
notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of any
Secured Creditor to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. It
is not necessary for any Secured Creditor to inquire into the capacity or powers of the Borrower or
any other Guaranteed Party or the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to
act on its or their behalf, and any indebtedness made or created in reliance upon the professed
exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed hereunder.

     8. Any indebtedness of the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party now or hereafter held by any
Guarantor is hereby subordinated to the indebtedness of the Borrower or such other Guaranteed Party
to the Secured Creditors, and such indebtedness of the Borrower or such other Guaranteed Party to
any Guarantor, if the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, after the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default, so requests, shall be collected, enforced and received by
such Guarantor as trustee for the Secured Creditors and be paid over to the Secured Creditors on
account of the indebtedness of the Borrower or the other Guaranteed Parties to the Secured
Creditors, but without affecting or impairing in any manner the liability of such Guarantor under
the other provisions of this Guaranty. Prior to the transfer by any Guarantor of any note or
negotiable instrument evidencing any indebtedness of the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party to
such Guarantor, such Guarantor shall mark such note or negotiable instrument with a legend that the
same is subject to this subordination. Without

5

 

limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor hereby agrees with the Secured
Creditors that it will not exercise any right of subrogation which it may at any time otherwise
have as a result of this Guaranty (whether contractual, under Section 509 of the Bankruptcy Code or
otherwise) until all Guaranteed Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full in cash (other than
contingent indemnification obligations that are not then due and payable); provided, that
if any amount shall be paid to such Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time
prior to the irrevocable payment in full in cash of all the Guaranteed Obligations, such amount
shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Creditors and shall forthwith be paid to the
Secured Creditors to be credited and applied upon the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or
unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Documents or, if the Credit Documents do not
provide for the application of such amount, to be held by the Secured Creditors as collateral
security for any Guaranteed Obligations thereafter existing.

     9. a) Each Guarantor waives any right (except as shall be required by applicable law and
cannot be waived) to require the Secured Creditors to: (i) proceed against the Borrower, any other
Guaranteed Party, any other Guarantor, any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations or any
other party; (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from the Borrower, any other
Guaranteed Party, any other Guarantor, any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations or any
other party; or (iii) pursue any other remedy in the Secured Creditors’ power whatsoever. Each
Guarantor waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of the Borrower, any other
Guaranteed Party, any other Guarantor, any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations or any
other party other than payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations in accordance with the
terms thereof, including, without limitation, any defense based on or arising out of the disability
of the Borrower, any other Guaranteed Party, any other Guarantor, any other guarantor of the
Guaranteed Obligations or any other party, or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or
any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of the Borrower
or any other Guaranteed Party other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations in cash.
The Secured Creditors may, at their election, foreclose on any security held by the Administrative
Agent, the Collateral Agent or the other Secured Creditors by one or more judicial or nonjudicial
sales, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable, or exercise any
other right or remedy the Secured Creditors may have against the Borrower, any other Guaranteed
Party or any other party, or any security, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability
of any Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in full
in cash in accordance with the terms thereof. Each Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any
such election by the Secured Creditors, even though such election operates to impair or extinguish
any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Guarantor against the
Borrower, any other Guaranteed Party or any other party or any security.

     (b) Each Guarantor waives all presentments, demands for performance, protests and notices,
including, without limitation, notices of nonperformance, notices of protest, notices of dishonor,
notices of acceptance of this Guaranty, and notices of the existence, creation or incurring of new
or additional indebtedness. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself
informed of the Borrower’s and each other Guaranteed Party’s financial condition and assets, and of
all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations and the
nature, scope and extent of the risks which such Guarantor

6

 

assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that the Secured Creditors shall have no duty to
advise any Guarantor of information known to them regarding such circumstances or risks.

     10. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Guaranty, the Secured
Creditors agree that this Guaranty may be enforced only by the action of the Administrative Agent
or the Collateral Agent, in each case acting upon the instructions of the Required Lenders (or,
after the date on which all Credit Document Obligations have been paid in full, the holders of at
least a majority of the outstanding Other Obligations) and that no other Secured Creditors shall
have any right individually to seek to enforce or to enforce this Guaranty or to realize upon the
security to be granted by the Security Documents, it being understood and agreed that such rights
and remedies may be exercised by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent or, after all the
Credit Document Obligations have been paid in full (other than contingent indemnification
obligations that are not then due and payable), by the holders of at least a majority of the
outstanding Other Obligations, as the case may be, for the benefit of the Secured Creditors upon
the terms of this Guaranty and the Security Documents. The Secured Creditors further agree that
this Guaranty may not be enforced against any director, officer, employee, partner, member or
stockholder of any Guarantor (except to the extent such partner, member or stockholder is also a
Guarantor hereunder). It is understood and agreed that the agreement in this Section 10 is
among and solely for the benefit of the Secured Creditors and that, if the Required Lenders (or,
after the date on which all Credit Document Obligations have been paid in full, the holders of at
least a majority of the outstanding Other Obligations) so agree (without requiring the consent of
any Guarantor), this Guaranty may be directly enforced by any Secured Creditor.

     11. In order to induce the Lenders to make Loans to, and issue Letters of Credit for the
account of, the Borrower pursuant to the Credit Agreement, and in order to induce the Other
Creditors to execute, deliver and perform the Interest Rate Protection Agreements and Other Hedging
Agreements, each Guarantor represents, warrants and covenants that:

     (a) Such Guarantor (i) is a duly organized and validly existing corporation, partnership or
limited liability company, as the case may be, in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction
of its organization, (ii) has the corporate, partnership or limited liability company power and
authority, as the case may be, to own its property and assets and to transact the business in which
it is engaged and presently proposes to engage and (iii) is duly qualified and is authorized to do
business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where the nature of its business requires
such qualification except for failures to be so qualified which, either individually or in the
aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

     (b) Such Guarantor has the corporate, partnership or limited liability company power and
authority, as the case may be, to execute, deliver and perform the terms and provisions of this
Guaranty and each other Credit Document to which it is a party and has taken all necessary
corporate, partnership or limited liability company action, as the case may be, to authorize the
execution, delivery and performance by it of this Guaranty and each such other Credit Document.
Such Guarantor has duly executed and delivered this Guaranty and each other Credit Document to
which it is a party, and this Guaranty and each such other Credit Document constitutes the legal,
valid and binding obligation of such Guarantor enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to
the extent that the enforceability hereof or thereof may be limited by

7

 

applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws generally
affecting creditors’ rights and by equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is
sought in equity or at law).

     (c) Neither the execution, delivery or performance by such Guarantor of this Guaranty or any
other Credit Document to which it is a party, nor compliance by it with the terms and provisions
hereof and thereof, will (i) contravene any provision of any applicable law, statute, rule or
regulation or any applicable order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental
instrumentality, (ii) conflict with or result in any breach of any of the terms, covenants,
conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition
of (or the obligation to create or impose) any Lien (except pursuant to the Security Documents)
upon any of the property or assets of such Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to the
terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, credit agreement, or any other
material agreement, contract or instrument to which such Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries is a
party or by which it or any of its property or assets is bound or to which it may be subject or
(iii) violate any provision of the certificate or articles of incorporation or by-laws (or
equivalent organizational documents) of such Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries.

     (d) No order, consent, approval, license, authorization or validation of, or filing, recording
or registration with (except as have been obtained or made prior to the date when required and
which remain in full force and effect), or exemption by, any governmental or public body or
authority, or any subdivision thereof, is required to authorize, or is required for, (i) the
execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty by such Guarantor or any other Credit Document
to which such Guarantor is a party or (ii) the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability
of this Guaranty or any other Credit Document to which such Guarantor is a party.

     (e) There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to such Guarantor’s knowledge,
threatened (i) with respect to this Guaranty or any other Credit Document to which such Guarantor
is a party or (ii) with respect to such Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries that, either
individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

     12. Each Guarantor covenants and agrees that on and after the Effective Date and until the
termination of the Total Commitment and all Interest Rate Protection Agreements and Other Hedging
Agreements and until such time as no Note or Letter of Credit remains outstanding and all
Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in full (other than contingent indemnification obligations
that are not then due and payable), such Guarantor will comply, and will cause each of its
Subsidiaries to comply, with all of the applicable provisions, covenants and agreements contained
in Sections 8 and 9 of the Credit Agreement, and will take, or will refrain from taking, as the
case may be, all actions that are necessary to be taken or not taken so that it is not in violation
of any provision, covenant or agreement contained in Section 8 or 9 of the Credit Agreement, and so
that no Default or Event of Default is caused by the actions of such Guarantor or any of its
Subsidiaries.

     13. The Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket
costs and expenses of each Secured Creditor in connection with the enforcement of this Guaranty and
of the Administrative Agent in connection with any amendment, waiver or

8

 

consent relating hereto (including, in each case, without limitation, the reasonable fees and
disbursements of counsel employed by each Secured Creditor).

     14. This Guaranty shall be binding upon each Guarantor and its successors and assigns and
shall inure to the benefit of the Secured Creditors and their successors and assigns.

     15. Neither this Guaranty nor any provision hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or
terminated except with the written consent of each Guarantor directly affected thereby and with the
written consent of either (x) the Required Lenders (or, to the extent required by Section 13.12 of
the Credit Agreement, with the written consent of each Lender) at all times prior to the time on
which all Credit Document Obligations have been paid in full (other than contingent indemnification
obligations that are not then due and payable) or (y) the holders of at least a majority of the
outstanding Other Obligations at all times after the time on which all Credit Document Obligations
have been paid in full (other than contingent indemnification obligations that are not then due and
payable); provided, that any change, waiver, modification or variance affecting the rights
and benefits of a single Class (as defined below) of Secured Creditors (and not all Secured
Creditors in a like or similar manner) shall also require the written consent of the Requisite
Creditors (as defined below) of such Class of Secured Creditors (it being understood that the
addition or release of any Guarantor hereunder in accordance with the terms hereof or the Credit
Agreement shall not constitute a change, waiver, discharge or termination affecting any Guarantor
other than the Guarantor so added or released and shall not require the consent of any Secured
Creditor other than the Administrative Agent). For the purpose of this Guaranty, the term
“Class” shall mean each class of Secured Creditors, i.e., whether (x) the Lender
Creditors as holders of the Credit Document Obligations or (y) the Other Creditors as the holders
of the Other Obligations. For the purpose of this Guaranty, the term “Requisite Creditors”
of any Class shall mean (x) with respect to the Credit Document Obligations, the Required Lenders
(or, to the extent required by Section 13.12 of the Credit Agreement, each Lender) and (y) with
respect to the Other Obligations, the holders of at least a majority of all obligations outstanding
from time to time under the Interest Rate Protection Agreements and Other Hedging Agreements.

     16. Each Guarantor acknowledges that an executed (or conformed) copy of each of the Credit
Documents and Interest Rate Protection Agreements or Other Hedging Agreements has been made
available to a senior officer of such Guarantor and such officer is familiar with the contents
thereof.

     17. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law (including,
without limitation, Section 151 of the New York Debtor and Secured Creditor Law) and not by way of
limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default (such term to mean and include any “Event of Default” (or similar term) as defined in the
Credit Agreement or in any Interest Rate Protection Agreement or Other Hedging Agreement entered
into with any Other Creditor and shall in any event include, without limitation, any payment
default under any of the Obligations continuing after any applicable grace period), each Secured
Creditor is hereby authorized, at any time or from time to time, without notice to any Guarantor or
to any other Person, any such notice being expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and
apply any and all deposits (general or special) and any other

9

 

indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Secured Creditor (including, without
limitation, by branches and agencies of such Secured Creditor wherever located) to or for the
credit or the account of such Guarantor, against and on account of the obligations and liabilities
of such Guarantor to such Secured Creditor under this Guaranty, irrespective of whether or not such
Secured Creditor shall have made any demand hereunder and although said obligations, liabilities,
deposits or claims, or any of them, shall be contingent or unmatured.

     18. Except as otherwise provided herein, all notices, requests, demands or other
communications to or upon the respective parties hereto shall be sent or delivered by mail,
telegraph, telex, telecopy, cable or courier service and all such notices and communications shall,
when mailed, telegraphed, telexed, telecopied, or cabled or sent by overnight courier, be effective
when deposited in the mails, delivered to the telegraph company, cable company or overnight
courier, as the case may be, or sent by telex or telecopier, except that notices and communications
to the Administrative Agent or any Guarantor shall not be effective until received by the
Administrative Agent or such Guarantor, as the case may be. All notices and other communications
shall be in writing and addressed to such party at (i) in the case of any Lender Creditor, as
provided in the Credit Agreement, (ii) in the case of any Guarantor, at its address set forth
opposite its signature page below, and (iii) in the case of any Other Creditor, at such address as
such Other Creditor shall have specified in writing to the Borrower; or in any case at such other
address as any of the Persons listed above may hereafter notify the others in writing.

     19. If any claim is ever made upon any Secured Creditor for repayment or recovery of any
amount or amounts received in payment or on account of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and any of
the aforesaid payees repays all or part of said amount by reason of (i) any judgment, decree or
order of any court or administrative body having jurisdiction over such payee or any of its
property or (ii) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by such payee with any
such claimant (including, without limitation, the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party) then and
in such event each Guarantor agrees that any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise
shall be binding upon such Guarantor, notwithstanding any revocation hereof or the cancellation of
any Note, any Interest Rate Protection Agreement, any Other Hedging Agreement or any other
instrument evidencing any liability of the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party, and such
Guarantor shall be and remain liable to the aforesaid payees hereunder for the amount so repaid or
recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been received by any such
payee.

     20. (a) THIS GUARANTY AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE SECURED CREDITORS AND OF THE
UNDERSIGNED HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF
NEW YORK. Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Guaranty or any other Credit
Document to which any Guarantor is a party may be brought in the courts of the State of New York or
of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York in each case which are
located in the County of New York, and, by execution and delivery of this Guaranty, each Guarantor
hereby irrevocably accepts for itself and in respect of its property, generally and
unconditionally, the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts. Each Guarantor hereby further
irrevocably waives any claim that any such court lacks personal jurisdiction over such Guarantor,
and agrees not to plead or claim in any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Guaranty

10

 

or any other Credit Document to which such Guarantor is a party brought in any of the
aforesaid courts that any such court lacks personal jurisdiction over such Guarantor. Each
Guarantor further irrevocably consents to the service of process out of any of the aforementioned
courts in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies thereof by registered or certified
mail, postage prepaid, to such Guarantor at its address set forth opposite its signature below,
such service to become effective 30 days after such mailing. Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably
waives any objection to such service of process and further irrevocably waives and agrees not to
plead or claim in any action or proceeding commenced hereunder or under any other Credit Document
to which such Guarantor is a party that such service of process was in any way invalid or
ineffective. Nothing herein shall affect the right of any of the Secured Creditors to serve process
in any other manner permitted by law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against
each Guarantor in any other jurisdiction.

     (b) Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable
law) any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any of the
aforesaid actions or proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Guaranty or any other
Credit Document to which such Guarantor is a party brought in the courts referred to in clause (a)
above and hereby further irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that
such action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

     (c) EACH GUARANTOR AND EACH SECURED CREDITOR (BY ITS ACCEPTANCE OF THE BENEFITS OF THIS
GUARANTY) HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR
COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY, THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS TO WHICH SUCH
GUARANTOR IS A PARTY OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

     21. In the event that all of the capital stock of one or more Guarantors is sold or otherwise
disposed of or liquidated in compliance with the requirements of Section 9.02 of the Credit
Agreement (or such sale, other disposition or liquidation has been approved in writing by the
Required Lenders (or all the Lenders if required by Section 13.12 of the Credit Agreement)) and the
proceeds of such sale, disposition or liquidation are applied in accordance with the provisions of
the Credit Agreement, to the extent applicable, such Guarantor shall upon consummation of such sale
or other disposition (except to the extent that such sale or disposition is to Holdings or another
Subsidiary thereof) be released from this Guaranty automatically and without further action and
this Guaranty shall, as to each such Guarantor or Guarantors, terminate, and have no further force
or effect (it being understood and agreed that the sale of one or more Persons that own, directly
or indirectly, all of the capital stock or other equity interests of any Guarantor shall be deemed
to be a sale of such Guarantor for the purposes of this Section 21).

     22. At any time a payment in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is made under this
Guaranty, the right of contribution of each Guarantor against each other Guarantor shall be
determined as provided in the immediately following sentence, with the right of contribution of
each Guarantor to be revised and restated as of each date on which a payment (a “Relevant
Payment”) is made on the Guaranteed Obligations under this Guaranty. At any time

11

 

that a Relevant Payment is made by a Guarantor that results in the aggregate payments made by
such Guarantor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations to and including the date of the Relevant
Payment exceeding such Guarantor’s Contribution Percentage (as defined below) of the aggregate
payments made by all Guarantors in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations to and including the date
of the Relevant Payment (such excess, the “Aggregate Excess Amount”), each such Guarantor
shall have a right of contribution against each other Guarantor who has made payments in respect of
the Guaranteed Obligations to and including the date of the Relevant Payment in an aggregate amount
less than such other Guarantor’s Contribution Percentage of the aggregate payments made to and
including the date of the Relevant Payment by all Guarantors in respect of the Guaranteed
Obligations (the aggregate amount of such deficit, the “Aggregate Deficit Amount”) in an
amount equal to (x) a fraction the numerator of which is the Aggregate Excess Amount of such
Guarantor and the denominator of which is the Aggregate Excess Amount of all Guarantors multiplied
by (y) the Aggregate Deficit Amount of such other Guarantor. A Guarantor’s right of contribution
pursuant to the preceding sentences shall arise at the time of each computation, subject to
adjustment to the time of each computation; provided that no Guarantor may take any action
to enforce such right until the Guaranteed Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full in cash
and the Total Commitment and all Letters of Credit have been terminated, it being expressly
recognized and agreed by all parties hereto that any Guarantor’s right of contribution arising
pursuant to this Section 22 against any other Guarantor shall be expressly junior and
subordinate to such other Guarantor’s obligations and liabilities in respect of the Guaranteed
Obligations and any other obligations owing under this Guaranty. As used in this Section
22: (i) each Guarantor’s “Contribution Percentage” shall mean the percentage obtained
by dividing (x) the Adjusted Net Worth (as defined below) of such Guarantor by (y) the aggregate
Adjusted Net Worth of all Guarantors; (ii) the “Adjusted Net Worth” of each Guarantor shall
mean the greater of (x) the Net Worth (as defined below) of such Guarantor and (y) zero; and (iii)
the “Net Worth” of each Guarantor shall mean the amount by which the fair saleable value of
such Guarantor’s assets on the date of any Relevant Payment exceeds its existing debts and other
liabilities (including contingent liabilities, but without giving effect to any Guaranteed
Obligations arising under this Guaranty or any guaranteed obligations arising under any guaranty of
the Senior Notes) on such date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, any
Guarantor that is released from this Guaranty pursuant to Section 21 hereof shall
thereafter have no contribution obligations, or rights, pursuant to this Section 22, and at
the time of any such release, if the released Guarantor had an Aggregate Excess Amount or an
Aggregate Deficit Amount, same shall be deemed reduced to $0, and the contribution rights and
obligations of the remaining Guarantors shall be recalculated on the respective date of release (as
otherwise provided above) based on the payments made hereunder by the remaining Guarantors. All
parties hereto recognize and agree that, except for any right of contribution arising pursuant to
this Section 22, each Guarantor who makes any payment in respect of the Guaranteed
Obligations shall have no right of contribution or subrogation against any other Guarantor in
respect of such payment until all of the Guaranteed Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full
in cash (other than contingent indemnification obligations that are not then due and payable).
Each of the Guarantors recognizes and acknowledges that the rights to contribution arising
hereunder shall constitute an asset in favor of the party entitled to such contribution. In this
connection, each Guarantor has the right to waive its contribution right against any Guarantor to
the extent that after giving effect to such waiver such Guarantor would remain solvent, in the
reasonable determination of the Required Lenders.

12

 

     23. Each Guarantor and each Secured Creditor (by its acceptance of the benefits of this
Guaranty) hereby confirms that it is its intention that this Guaranty not constitute a fraudulent
transfer or conveyance for purposes of the Bankruptcy Code, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act
of any similar Federal or state law. To effectuate the foregoing intention, each Guarantor and
each Secured Creditor (by its acceptance of the benefits of this Guaranty) hereby irrevocably
agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed by such Guarantor shall be limited to such amount
as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other (contingent or otherwise)
liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws and after giving effect to any
rights to contribution pursuant to any agreement providing for an equitable contribution among such
Guarantor and the other Guarantors, result in the Guaranteed Obligations of such Guarantor in
respect of such maximum amount not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

     24. This Guaranty may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties
hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original,
but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. A set of counterparts
executed by all the parties hereto shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

     25. All payments made by any Guarantor hereunder will be made without setoff, counterclaim or
other defense and on the same basis as payments are made by the Borrower under Sections 4.03 and
4.04 of the Credit Agreement.

     26. It is understood and agreed that any Subsidiary of the Borrower that is required to
execute a counterpart of this Guaranty after the date hereof pursuant to the Credit Agreement shall
become a Guarantor hereunder by (x) executing and delivering a counterpart hereof (or a Joinder
Agreement) to the Administrative Agent and (y) taking all actions as specified in this Guaranty as
would have been taken by such Guarantor had it been an original party to this Guaranty, in each
case with all documents and actions required to be taken above to be taken to the reasonable
satisfaction of the Administrative Agent.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each Guarantor has caused this Guaranty to be executed and delivered as of
the date first above written.

statements to be satisfactory to the Pledgee), to be filed in the relevant filing offices so
that at all times the Pledgee has a security interest in all Investment Property and other
Collateral which is perfected by the filing of such financing statements (in each case to
the maximum extent perfection by filing may be obtained under the laws of the relevant
States, including, without limitation, Section 9-312(a) of the UCC).

          3.3 Subsequently Acquired Collateral. If any Pledgor shall acquire (by purchase,
stock dividend or similar distribution or otherwise) any additional Collateral at any time or from
time to time after the date hereof, such Collateral shall automatically (and without any further
action being required to be taken) be subject to the pledge and security interests created pursuant
to Section 3.1 hereof and, furthermore, the respective Pledgor will promptly thereafter
take (or cause to be taken) all action with respect to such Collateral in accordance with the
procedures set forth in Section 3.2 hereof, and will promptly thereafter deliver to the
Pledgee (i) a certificate executed by an authorized officer of such Pledgor describing such
Collateral and certifying that the same has been duly pledged in favor of the Pledgee (for the
benefit of the Secured Creditors) hereunder, and (ii) such supplements to Annexes A through
G hereto as are reasonably necessary to cause such annexes to be complete and accurate at
such time. Without limiting the foregoing, each Pledgor shall be required to pledge hereunder the
Equity Interests of any Exempted Foreign Entity at any time and from time to time after the date
hereof acquired by such Pledgor, provided that (x) except in the circumstances and to the
extent provided by Section 8.13 of the Credit Agreement, no Pledgor shall be required at any time
to pledge hereunder more than 65% of the total combined voting power of all classes of Voting
Equity Interests of any Exempted Foreign Entity and (y) each Pledgor shall be required to pledge
hereunder 100% of the Non-Voting

11

 

Equity Interests of each Exempted Foreign Entity at any time and from time to time acquired by
such Pledgor.

          3.4 Transfer Taxes. Each pledge of Collateral under Section 3.1 or
Section 3.3 hereof shall be accompanied by any transfer tax stamps required in connection
with the pledge of such Collateral.

          3.5 Definition of Pledged Notes. All Notes at any time pledged or required to be
pledged hereunder are hereinafter called the “Pledged Notes.”

          3.6 Certain Representations and Warranties Regarding the Collateral. Each Pledgor
represents and warrants that on the date hereof: (i) the exact legal name of such Pledgor, the type
of organization of such Pledgor, whether or not such Pledgor is a Registered Organization, the

          4. APPOINTMENT OF SUB-AGENTS; ENDORSEMENTS, ETC. If and to the extent necessary to enable the
Pledgee to perfect its security interest in any of the Collateral or to exercise any of its
remedies hereunder, the Pledgee shall have the right to appoint one or more sub-agents for the
purpose of retaining physical possession of the Collateral, which may be held (in the discretion of
the Pledgee) in the name of the relevant Pledgor, endorsed or assigned in blank or in favor of the
Pledgee or any nominee or nominees of the Pledgee or a sub-agent appointed by the Pledgee.

          5. VOTING, ETC., WHILE NO EVENT OF DEFAULT. Unless and until there shall have occurred and be
continuing an Event of Default, each Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and
other consensual rights pertaining to the Collateral owned by it, and to give consents, waivers or
ratifications in respect thereof; provided that, in each case, no

12

 

vote shall be cast or any consent, waiver or ratification given or any action taken or omitted
to be taken which would violate, result in a breach of any covenant contained in, or be
inconsistent with any of the terms of any Secured Debt Agreement, or which could reasonably be
expected to have the effect of impairing the value of the Collateral or any part thereof or the
position or interests of the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor in the Collateral, unless
expressly permitted by the terms of the Secured Debt Agreements. All such rights of each Pledgor
to vote and to give consents, waivers and ratifications shall cease in case an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, and Section 7 hereof shall become applicable.

          6. DIVIDENDS AND OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS. Unless and until there shall have occurred and be
continuing an Event of Default, all cash dividends, cash distributions, cash Proceeds and other
cash amounts payable in respect of the Collateral shall be paid to the respective Pledgor. The
Pledgee shall be entitled to receive directly, and to retain as part of the Collateral:

     (i) all other or additional stock, notes, certificates, limited liability company
interests, partnership interests, instruments or other securities or property (including,
but not limited to, cash dividends other than as set forth above) paid or distributed by way
of dividend or otherwise in respect of the Collateral;

     (ii) all other or additional stock, notes, certificates, limited liability company
interests, partnership interests, instruments or other securities or property (including,
but not limited to, cash (although such cash may be paid directly to the respective Pledgor
so long as no Event of Default then exists)) paid or distributed in respect of the
Collateral by way of stock-split, spin-off, split-up, reclassification, combination of
shares or similar rearrangement; and

     (iii) all other or additional stock, notes, certificates, limited liability company
interests, partnership interests, instruments or other securities or property (including,
but not limited to, cash but only if an Event of Default then exists) which may be paid in
respect of the Collateral by reason of any consolidation, merger, exchange of stock,
conveyance of assets, liquidation or similar corporate or other reorganization.

               Nothing contained in this Section 6 shall limit or restrict in any way the
Pledgee’s right to receive the proceeds of the Collateral in any form in accordance with
Section 3 of this Agreement. All dividends, distributions or other payments which
are received by any Pledgor contrary to the provisions of this Section 6 or
Section 7 hereof shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Pledgee, shall be
segregated from other property or funds of such Pledgor and shall be forthwith paid over to
the Pledgee as Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement).

          7. REMEDIES IN CASE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT. If there shall have occurred and be continuing an
Event of Default, then and in every such case, the Pledgee shall be entitled to exercise all of the
rights, powers and remedies (whether vested in it by this Agreement, any other Secured Debt
Agreement or by law) for the protection and enforcement of its rights in respect of the Collateral,
and the Pledgee shall be entitled to exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured party under
the UCC as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction and also

13

 

shall be entitled, without limitation, to exercise the following rights, which each Pledgor
hereby agrees to be commercially reasonable:

     (i) to receive all amounts payable in respect of the Collateral otherwise payable under
Section 6 hereof to the respective Pledgor;

     (ii) to transfer all or any part of the Collateral into the Pledgee’s name or the name
of its nominee or nominees;

     (iii) to accelerate any Pledged Note which may be accelerated in accordance with its
terms, and take any other lawful action to collect upon any Pledged Note (including, without
limitation, to make any demand for payment thereon);

     (iv) to vote (and exercise all rights and powers in respect of voting) all or any part
of the Collateral (whether or not transferred into the name of the Pledgee) and give all
consents, waivers and ratifications in respect of the Collateral and otherwise act with
respect thereto as though it were the outright owner thereof (each Pledgor hereby
irrevocably constituting and appointing the Pledgee the proxy and attorney-in-fact of such
Pledgor, with full power of substitution to do so);

     (v) at any time and from time to time to sell, assign and deliver, or grant options to
purchase, all or any part of the Collateral, or any interest therein, at any public or
private sale, without demand of performance, advertisement or, notice of intention to sell
or of the time or place of sale or adjournment thereof or to redeem or otherwise purchase or
dispose (all of which are hereby waived by each Pledgor), for cash, on credit or for other
property, for immediate or future delivery without any assumption of credit risk, and for
such price or prices and on such terms as the Pledgee in its absolute discretion may
determine, provided that at least 10 days’ written notice of the time and place of
any such sale shall be given to the respective Pledgor. The Pledgee shall not be obligated
to make any such sale of Collateral regardless of whether any such notice of sale has
theretofore been given. Each Pledgor hereby waives and releases to the fullest extent
permitted by law any right or equity of redemption with respect to the Collateral, whether
before or after sale hereunder, and all rights, if any, of marshalling the Collateral and
any other security or the Obligations or otherwise. At any such sale, unless prohibited by
applicable law, the Pledgee on behalf of the Secured Creditors may bid for and purchase all
or any part of the Collateral so sold free from any such right or equity of redemption.
Neither the Pledgee nor any other Secured Creditor shall be liable for failure to collect or
realize upon any or all of the Collateral or for any delay in so doing nor shall any of them
be under any obligation to take any action whatsoever with regard thereto; and

     (vi) to set-off any and all Collateral against any and all Obligations, and to withdraw
any and all cash or other Collateral from any and all Collateral Accounts and to apply such
cash and other Collateral to the payment of any and all Obligations.

          8. REMEDIES, CUMULATIVE, ETC. Each and every right, power and remedy of the Pledgee provided
for in this Agreement or in any other Secured Debt Agreement, or now

14

 

or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute shall be cumulative and concurrent and
shall be in addition to every other such right, power or remedy. The exercise or beginning of the
exercise by the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor of any one or more of the rights, powers or
remedies provided for in this Agreement or any other Secured Debt Agreement or now or hereafter
existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall not preclude the simultaneous or
later exercise by the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor of all such other rights, powers or
remedies, and no failure or delay on the part of the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor to
exercise any such right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof. No notice to or demand
on any Pledgor in any case shall entitle it to any other or further notice or demand in similar or
other circumstances or constitute a waiver of any of the rights of the Pledgee or any other Secured
Creditor to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. The Secured
Creditors agree that this Agreement may be enforced only by the action of the Pledgee, in each
case, acting upon the instructions of the Required Secured Creditors, and that no other Secured
Creditor shall have any right individually to seek to enforce or to enforce this Agreement or to
realize upon the security to be granted hereby, it being understood and agreed that such rights and
remedies may be exercised by the Pledgee for the benefit of the Secured Creditors upon the terms of
this Agreement and the Security Agreement.

          9. APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS. (a) All monies collected by the Pledgee upon any sale or other
disposition of the Collateral pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, together with all other
monies received by the Pledgee hereunder, shall be applied in the manner provided in the Security
Agreement.

          (b) It is understood and agreed that each Pledgor shall remain jointly and severally liable
with respect to its Obligations to the extent of any deficiency between the amount of the proceeds
of the Collateral pledged by it hereunder and the aggregate amount of such Obligations.

          10. PURCHASERS OF COLLATERAL. Upon any sale of the Collateral by the Pledgee hereunder
(whether by virtue of the power of sale herein granted, pursuant to judicial process or otherwise),
the receipt of the Pledgee or the officer making such sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the
purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold, and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be
obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid over to the Pledgee or
such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication or nonapplication thereof.

          11. INDEMNITY. Each Pledgor jointly and severally agrees (i) to indemnify and hold harmless
the Pledgee and each other Secured Creditor (in their capacity as such) and their respective
successors, assigns, employees, advisors, agents and affiliates (individually an
“Indemnitee,” and collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all
obligations, damages, injuries, penalties, claims, demands, losses, judgments and liabilities
(including, without limitation, liabilities for penalties) of whatsoever kind or nature, and (ii)
to reimburse each Indemnitee for all reasonable costs, expenses and disbursements, including
reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, in each case arising out of or resulting from this
Agreement or the exercise by any Indemnitee of any right or remedy granted to it hereunder (but
excluding any obligations, damages, injuries, penalties, claims, demands, losses, judgments and
liabilities (including, without limitation, liabilities for penalties) or expenses of whatever kind
or nature to

15

 

the extent incurred or arising by reason of gross negligence or willful misconduct of such
Indemnitee (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable
decision)). In no event shall the Pledgee hereunder be liable, in the absence of gross negligence
or willful misconduct on its part, for any matter or thing in connection with this Agreement other
than to account for monies actually received by it in accordance with the terms hereof. If and to
the extent that the obligations of any Pledgor under this Section 11 are unenforceable for
any reason, such Pledgor hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and
satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under applicable law. The indemnity
obligations of each Pledgor contained in this Section 11 shall continue in full force and
effect notwithstanding the full payment of all the Notes issued under the Credit Agreement, the
termination of all Interest Rate Protection Agreements and Other Hedging Agreements and Letters of
Credit, and the payment of all other Obligations and notwithstanding the discharge thereof.

          12. PLEDGEE NOT A PARTNER OR LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY MEMBER. (a) Nothing herein shall be
construed to make the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor liable as a member of any limited
liability company or as a partner of any partnership and neither the Pledgee nor any other Secured
Creditor by virtue of this Agreement or otherwise (except as referred to in the following sentence)
shall have any of the duties, obligations or liabilities of a member of any limited liability
company or as a partner in any partnership. The parties hereto expressly agree that, unless the
Pledgee shall become the absolute owner of Collateral consisting of a Limited Liability Company
Interest or a Partnership Interest pursuant hereto and is admitted as a member or partner of the
respective Limited Liability Company or Partnership, this Agreement shall not be construed as
creating a partnership or joint venture among the Pledgee, any other Secured Creditor, any Pledgor
and/or any other Person.

          (b) Except as provided in the last sentence of paragraph (a) of this Section 12, the
Pledgee, by accepting this Agreement, did not intend to become a member of any limited liability
company or a partner of any partnership or otherwise be deemed to be a co-venturer with respect to
any Pledgor, any limited liability company, partnership and/or any other Person either before or
after an Event of Default shall have occurred. The Pledgee shall have only those powers set forth
herein and the Secured Creditors shall assume none of the duties, obligations or liabilities of a
member of any limited liability company or as a partner of any partnership or any Pledgor except as
provided in the last sentence of paragraph (a) of this Section 12.

          (c) The Pledgee and the other Secured Creditors shall not be obligated to perform or discharge
any obligation of any Pledgor as a result of the pledge hereby effected.

          (d) The acceptance by the Pledgee of this Agreement, with all the rights, powers, privileges
and authority so created, shall not at any time or in any event obligate the Pledgee or any other
Secured Creditor to appear in or defend any action or proceeding relating to the Collateral to
which it is not a party, or to take any action hereunder or thereunder, or to expend any money or
incur any expenses or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability under the Collateral.

          13. FURTHER ASSURANCES; POWER-OF-ATTORNEY. (a) Each Pledgor agrees that it will join with
the Pledgee in executing and, at such Pledgor’s own expense, file and

16

 

refile under the UCC or other applicable law such financing statements, continuation
statements and other documents, in form reasonably acceptable to the Pledgee, in such offices as
the Pledgee may deem reasonably necessary or appropriate and wherever required or permitted by law
in order to perfect and preserve the Pledgee’s security interest in the Collateral hereunder and
hereby authorizes the Pledgee to file financing statements and amendments thereto relative to all
or any part of the Collateral (including, without limitation, (x) financing statements which list
the Collateral specifically and/or “all assets” as collateral and (y) “in lieu of” financing
statements) without the signature of such Pledgor where permitted by law, and agrees to do such
further acts and things and to execute and deliver to the Pledgee such additional conveyances,
assignments, agreements and instruments as the Pledgee may reasonably require or deem reasonably
necessary to carry into effect the purposes of this Agreement or to further assure and confirm unto
the Pledgee its rights, powers and remedies hereunder or thereunder.

          (b) Each Pledgor hereby constitutes and appoints the Pledgee its true and lawful
attorney-in-fact, irrevocably, with full authority in the place and stead of such Pledgor and in
the name of such Pledgor or otherwise, from time to time solely after the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, in the Pledgee’s reasonable discretion, to act, require,
demand, receive and give acquittance for any and all monies and claims for monies due or to become
due to such Pledgor under or arising out of the Collateral, to endorse any checks or other
instruments or orders in connection therewith and to file any claims or take any action or
institute any proceedings and to execute any instrument which the Pledgee may deem necessary or
advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, which appointment as attorney is coupled
with an interest.

          14. THE PLEDGEE AS COLLATERAL AGENT. The Pledgee will hold in accordance with this Agreement
all items of the Collateral at any time received under this Agreement. It is expressly understood,
acknowledged and agreed by each Secured Creditor that by accepting the benefits of this Agreement,
each such Secured Creditor acknowledges and agrees (i) that the obligations of the Pledgee as
holder of the Collateral and interests therein and with respect to the disposition thereof, and
otherwise under this Agreement, are only those expressly set forth in this Agreement and in Section
12 of the Credit Agreement. The Pledgee shall act hereunder on the terms and conditions set forth
herein and in Section 12 of the Credit Agreement.

          15. TRANSFER BY THE PLEDGORS. No Pledgor will sell or otherwise dispose of, grant any option
with respect to, or mortgage, pledge or otherwise encumber any of the Collateral or any interest
therein.

          16. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE PLEDGORS. (a) Each Pledgor represents,
warrants and covenants as to itself and each of its Subsidiaries that:

     (i) it is the legal, beneficial and record owner of, and has good and marketable title
to, all of its Collateral consisting of one or more Securities, Partnership Interests and
Limited Liability Company Interests and that it has sufficient interest in all of its
Collateral in which a security interest is purported to be created hereunder for such
security interest to attach (subject, in each case, to no pledge,
lien, mortgage, hypothecation,

17

 

security interest, charge, option, Adverse Claim or other encumbrance
whatsoever, except the liens and security interests created by this Agreement);

     (ii) it has full power, authority and legal right to pledge all the Collateral pledged
by it pursuant to this Agreement;

     (iii) this Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Pledgor
and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Pledgor enforceable against
such Pledgor in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that the enforceability
hereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or
other similar laws generally affecting creditors’ rights and by equitable principles
(regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law);

     (iv) except to the extent already obtained or made, no consent of any other party
(including, without limitation, any stockholder, partner, member or creditor of such Pledgor
or any of its Subsidiaries) and no consent, license, permit, approval or authorization of,
exemption by, notice or report to, or registration, filing or declaration with, any
governmental authority is required to be obtained by such Pledgor in connection with (a) the
execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement by such Pledgor, (b) the validity or
enforceability of this Agreement against such Pledgor (except as set forth in clause (iii)
above), (c) the perfection or enforceability of the Pledgee’s security interest in such
Pledgor’s Collateral, or (d) except for compliance with or as may be required by applicable
securities laws, the exercise by the Pledgee of any of its rights or remedies provided
herein;

     (v) neither the execution, delivery or performance by such Pledgor of this Agreement,
nor compliance by it with the terms and provisions hereof nor the consummation of the
transactions contemplated herein: (i) will contravene any provision of any applicable law,
statute, rule or regulation, or any applicable order, writ, injunction or decree of any
court, arbitrator or governmental instrumentality, domestic or foreign, applicable to such
Pledgor; (ii) will conflict or be inconsistent with or result in any breach of any of the
terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in
the creation or imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose) any Lien (except
pursuant to the Security Documents) upon any of the properties or assets of such Pledgor or
any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of any indenture, lease, mortgage, deed of
trust, credit agreement, loan agreement or any other material agreement, contract or other
instrument to which such Pledgor or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or is otherwise
bound, or by which it or any of its properties or assets is bound or to which it may be
subject; or (iii) will violate any provision of the certificate of incorporation, by-laws,
certificate of partnership, partnership agreement, certificate of formation or limited
liability company agreement (or equivalent organizational documents), as the case may be, of
such Pledgor or any of its Subsidiaries;

     (vi) all of such Pledgor’s Collateral (consisting of Securities, Limited Liability
Company Interests or Partnership Interests) has been duly and validly issued and acquired,
is fully paid and non-assessable and is subject to no options to purchase or similar rights;

18

 

     (vii) each of such Pledgor’s Pledged Notes constitutes, or when executed by the obligor
thereof will constitute, the legal, valid and binding obligation of such obligor,
enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that the enforceability
thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or
other similar laws generally affecting creditors’ rights and by equitable principles
(regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law);

     (viii) the pledge, collateral assignment and delivery to the Pledgee of such Pledgor’s
Collateral consisting of Certificated Securities and Pledged Notes pursuant to this
Agreement creates a valid and perfected first priority security interest in such
Certificated Securities and Pledged Notes, and the proceeds thereof, subject to no prior
Lien or encumbrance or to any agreement purporting to grant to any third party a Lien or
encumbrance on the property or assets of such Pledgor which would include the Securities and
the Pledgee is entitled to all the rights, priorities and benefits afforded by the UCC or
other relevant law as enacted in any relevant jurisdiction to perfect security interests in
respect of such Collateral; and

     (ix) “control” (as defined in Section 8-106 of the UCC) has been obtained by the
Pledgee over all of such Pledgor’s Collateral consisting of Securities (including, without
limitation, Notes which are Securities) with respect to which such “control” may be obtained
pursuant to Section 8-106 of the UCC except to the extent that the obligation of the
applicable Pledgor to provide the Pledgee with “control” of such Collateral has not yet
arisen under this Agreement; provided that in the case of the Pledgee obtaining
“control” over Collateral consisting of a Security Entitlement, such Pledgor shall have
taken all steps in its control so that the Pledgee obtains “control” over such Security
Entitlement.

          (b) Each Pledgor covenants and agrees that it will defend the Pledgee’s right, title and
security interest in and to such Pledgor’s Collateral and the proceeds thereof against the claims
and demands of all persons whomsoever; and each Pledgor covenants and agrees that it will have like
title to and right to pledge any other property at any time hereafter pledged to the Pledgee by
such Pledgor as Collateral hereunder and will likewise defend the right thereto and security
interest therein of the Pledgee and the other Secured Creditors.

          (c) Each Pledgor covenants and agrees that it will take no action which would violate any of
the terms of any Secured Debt Agreement.

          17. LEGAL NAMES; TYPE OF ORGANIZATION (AND WHETHER A REGISTERED ORGANIZATION AND/OR A
TRANSMITTING UTILITY); JURISDICTION OF ORGANIZATION; LOCATION; ORGANIZATIONAL IDENTIFICATION
NUMBERS; CHANGES THERETO; ETC. The exact legal name of each Pledgor, the type of organization of
such Pledgor, whether or not such Pledgor is a Registered Organization, the jurisdiction of
organization of such Pledgor, such Pledgor’s Location, the organizational identification number (if
any) of such Pledgor, and whether or not such Pledgor is a Transmitting Utility, is listed on
Annex A hereto for such Pledgor. No Pledgor shall change its legal name, its type of

19

 

Transmitting Utility, as the case may be), its jurisdiction of organization, its Location or
its organizational identification number (if any) from that listed on Annex A hereto for

Registered Organization), its status as a Transmitting Utility or as a Person which is not a
Transmitting Utility, as the case may be, its jurisdiction of organization, its Location, or its
organizational identification number (if any), except that any such changes shall be permitted (so
long as not in violation of the applicable requirements of the Secured Debt Agreements and so long
as same do not involve (x) a Registered Organization ceasing to constitute same or (y) any Pledgor
changing its jurisdiction of organization or Location from the United States or a State thereof to
a jurisdiction of organization or Location, as the case may be, outside the United States or a
State thereof) if (i) it shall have given to the Pledgee not less than 15 days’ prior written
notice of each change to the information listed on Annex A (as adjusted for any subsequent
changes thereto previously made in accordance with this sentence), together with a supplement to
Annex A which shall correct all information contained therein for the respective Pledgor,
and (ii) in connection with such respective change or changes, it shall have taken all action
reasonably requested by the Pledgee to maintain the security interests of the Pledgee in the
Collateral intended to be granted hereby at all times fully perfected and in full force and effect.
In addition, to the extent that any Pledgor does not have an organizational identification number
on the date hereof and later obtains one, such Pledgor shall promptly thereafter notify the Pledgee
of such organizational identification number and shall take all actions reasonably satisfactory to
the Pledgee to the extent necessary to maintain the security interest of the Pledgee in the
Collateral intended to be granted hereby fully perfected and in full force and effect.

          18. PLEDGORS’ OBLIGATIONS ABSOLUTE, ETC. Prior to the Termination Date, the obligations of
each Pledgor under this Agreement shall be absolute and unconditional and shall remain in full
force and effect without regard to, and shall not be released, suspended, discharged, terminated or
otherwise affected by any circumstance or occurrence whatsoever, including, without limitation:
(i) any renewal, extension, amendment or modification of or addition or supplement to or deletion
from any Secured Debt Agreement or any other instrument or agreement referred to therein, or any
assignment or transfer of any thereof (except to the extent that any such modification expressly
and directly relates to such Pledgor’s obligations under this Agreement); (ii) any waiver, consent,
extension, indulgence or other action or inaction under or in respect of any such agreement or
instrument including, without limitation, this Agreement; (iii) any furnishing of any additional
security to the Pledgee or its assignee or any acceptance thereof or any release of any security by

such instrument or agreement or any invalidity or unenforceability, in whole or in part, of any
such instrument or agreement or any term thereof; or (v) any bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, composition, adjustment, dissolution, liquidation or other like proceeding relating
to any Pledgor or any Subsidiary of any Pledgor, or any action taken with respect to this Agreement
by any trustee or receiver, or by any court, in any such proceeding, whether or not such Pledgor
shall have notice or knowledge of any of the foregoing.

Default then, and in every such case, upon receipt by any Pledgor from the Pledgee a

20

 

written request or requests that such Pledgor cause any registration, qualification or
compliance under any Federal or state securities law or laws to be effected with respect to all or
any part of the Collateral consisting of Securities, Limited Liability Company Interests or
Partnership Interests of, or owned by, such Pledgor, such Pledgor as soon as practicable and at its
expense will cause such registration to be declared effected (and be kept effective) and will cause
such qualification and compliance to be declared effected (and be kept effective) as may be so
requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of such Collateral including,
without limitation, registration under the Securities Act, as then in effect (or any similar
statute then in effect), appropriate qualifications under applicable blue sky or other state
securities laws and appropriate compliance with any other governmental requirements;
provided, that the Pledgee shall furnish to such Pledgor such information regarding the
Pledgee as such Pledgor may reasonably request in writing and as shall be required in connection
with any such registration, qualification or compliance. The respective Pledgor will cause the
Pledgee to be kept reasonably advised in writing as to the progress of each such registration,
qualification or compliance and as to the completion thereof, will furnish to the Pledgee such
number of prospectuses, offering circulars or other documents incident thereto as the Pledgee from
time to time may reasonably request, and will indemnify the Pledgee, each other Secured Creditor
and all others participating in the distribution of such Collateral against all claims, losses,
damages and liabilities caused by any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material
fact contained therein (or in any related registration statement, notification or the like) or by
any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein (or in any related registration statement,
notification or the like) a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, except insofar as the same may have been caused by an untrue
statement or omission based upon information furnished in writing to such Pledgor by the Pledgee or
such other Secured Creditor expressly for use therein.

          (b) If at any time when the Pledgee shall determine to exercise its right to sell all or any
part of the Collateral consisting of Securities, Limited Liability Company Interests or
Partnership Interests pursuant to Section 7 hereof, and the Collateral or the part thereof
to be sold shall not, for any reason whatsoever, be effectively registered under the Securities
Act, as then in effect, the Pledgee may, in its sole and absolute discretion, sell such Collateral,
as the case may be, or part thereof by private sale in such manner and under such circumstances as
the Pledgee may deem reasonably necessary or advisable in order that such sale may legally be
effected without such registration. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in any such
event the Pledgee, in its sole and absolute discretion (i) may proceed to make such private sale
notwithstanding that a registration statement for the purpose of registering such Collateral or
part thereof shall have been filed under such Securities Act, (ii) may approach and negotiate with
a single possible purchaser to effect such sale, and (iii) may restrict such sale to a purchaser
who will represent and agree that such purchaser is purchasing for its own account, for investment,
and not with a view to the distribution or sale of such Collateral or part thereof. In the event
of any such sale, the Pledgee shall incur no responsibility or liability for selling all or any
part of the Collateral at a price which the Pledgee, in its sole and absolute discretion, in good
faith deems reasonable under the circumstances, notwithstanding the possibility that a
substantially higher price might be realized if the sale were deferred until after registration as
aforesaid.

          20. TERMINATION; RELEASE. (a) After the Termination Date, this Agreement and the security
interest created by hereby shall automatically terminate (provided

21

 

that all indemnities set forth herein including, without limitation, in Section 11
hereof shall survive any such termination), and the Pledgee, at the request and expense of such
Pledgor, will execute and deliver to any Pledgor a proper instrument or instruments (including UCC
termination statements) acknowledging the satisfaction and termination of this Agreement
(including, without limitation, UCC termination statements and instruments of satisfaction,
discharge and/or reconveyance), and will duly release from the security interest created hereby
and, and will duly assign, transfer and deliver to such Pledgor (without recourse and without any
representation or warranty) such of the Collateral as may be in the possession of the Pledgee and
as has not theretofore been sold or otherwise applied or released pursuant to this Agreement,
together with any moneys at the time held by the Pledgee or any of its sub-agents hereunder and,
with respect to any Collateral consisting of an Uncertificated Security, a Partnership Interest or
a Limited Liability Company Interest (other than an Uncertificated Security, Partnership Interest
or Limited Liability Company Interest credited on the books of a Clearing Corporation or Securities
Intermediary), a termination of the agreement relating thereto executed and delivered by the issuer
of such Uncertificated Security pursuant to Section 3.2(a)(ii) or by the respective
partnership or limited liability company pursuant to Section 3.2(a)(iv)(2). As used in
this Agreement, “Termination Date” shall mean the date upon which the Total Commitment
under the Credit Agreement has been terminated and all Interest Rate Protection Agreements and
Other Hedging Agreements entered into with any Other Creditors have been terminated, no Note under
(and as defined in) the Credit Agreement is outstanding and all Loans thereunder have been repaid
in full, all Letters of Credit issued under the Credit Agreement have been terminated, and all
other Obligations (other than indemnities described in Section 11 hereof and described in
Section 13.01 of the Credit Agreement, and any other indemnities set forth in any other Security
Documents, in each case which are not then due and payable) then due and payable have been paid in
full in cash in accordance with the terms thereof.

          (b) In the event that any part of the Collateral is sold or otherwise disposed of (to a Person
other than a Credit Party) (x) at any time prior to the time at which all Credit Document
Obligations have been paid in full and all Commitments and Letters of Credit under the Credit
Agreement have been terminated, in connection with a sale or other disposition permitted by Section
9.02 of the Credit Agreement or is otherwise released at the direction of the Required Lenders (or
all the Lenders if required by Section 13.12 of the Credit Agreement) or (y) at any time
thereafter, to the extent permitted by the other Secured Debt Agreements, and in the case of
clauses (x) and (y), the proceeds of such sale or disposition (or from such release) are applied in
accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement or such other Secured Debt Agreement, as the case
may be, to the extent required to be so applied, the Pledgee, at the request and expense of such
Pledgor, will duly release from the security interest created hereby (and will execute and deliver
such documentation, including termination or partial release statements and the like in connection
therewith) and assign, transfer and deliver to such Pledgor (without recourse and without any
representation or warranty) such of the Collateral as is then being (or has been) so sold or
released and as may be in the possession of the Pledgee (or, in the case of Collateral held by any
sub-agent designated pursuant to Section 4 hereto, such sub-agent) and has not theretofore
been released pursuant to this Agreement.

          (c) At any time that any Pledgor desires that Collateral be released as provided in the
foregoing Section 20(a) or (b), it shall deliver to the Pledgee (and the relevant
sub-agent, if any, designated pursuant to Section 4 hereof) a certificate signed by an
authorized

22

 

officer of such Pledgor stating that the release of the respective Collateral is permitted
pursuant to Section 20(a) or (b) hereof.

          (d) The Pledgee shall have no liability whatsoever to any other Secured Creditor as the result
of any release of Collateral by it in accordance with this Section 20.

          21. NOTICES, ETC. All notices and communications hereunder shall be in writing and sent or
delivered by mail, telegraph, telex, telecopy, cable or overnight courier service and all such
notices and communications shall, when mailed, telegraphed, telexed, telecopied, or cabled or sent

cable company or overnight courier, as the case may be, or sent by telex or telecopier, except that

AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH AND BE GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH

LOCATED IN THE COUNTY OF NEW YORK, AND, BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH PLEDGOR
HEREBY IRREVOCABLY ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, GENERALLY AND
UNCONDITIONALLY, THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS. EACH PLEDGOR HEREBY
FURTHER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH COURTS LACK PERSONAL JURISDICTION OVER SUCH
PLEDGOR, AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS
AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT BROUGHT IN ANY OF THE AFORESAID COURTS THAT ANY SUCH COURT

AGREEMENT, OR ANY SECURED CREDITOR, TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO
COMMENCE LEGAL PROCEEDINGS OR OTHERWISE PROCEED AGAINST ANY PLEDGOR IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

          (b) EACH PLEDGOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO
THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY OF THE AFORESAID ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION
WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT BROUGHT IN THE COURTS REFERRED TO IN CLAUSE (a)
ABOVE AND HEREBY FURTHER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY

24

 

SUCH COURT THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN
INCONVENIENT FORUM.

          (c) EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY
JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE
OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

          26. PLEDGOR’S DUTIES. It is expressly agreed, anything herein contained to the contrary
notwithstanding, that each Pledgor shall remain liable to perform all of the obligations, if any,
assumed by it with respect to the Collateral and the Pledgee shall not have any obligations or
liabilities with respect to any Collateral by reason of or arising out of this Agreement, nor shall
the Pledgee be required or obligated in any manner to perform or fulfill any of the obligations of
any Pledgor under or with respect to any Collateral.

          27. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the
different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered
shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. A
set of counterparts executed by all the parties hereto shall be lodged with each Pledgor and the
Pledgee.

          28. SEVERABILITY. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or
unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in
any other jurisdiction.

          29. RECOURSE. This Agreement is made with full recourse to each Pledgor and pursuant to and
upon all the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements on the part of such Pledgor
contained herein and in the other Secured Debt Agreements and otherwise in writing in connection
herewith or therewith.

          30. ADDITIONAL PLEDGORS. It is understood and agreed that any Subsidiary of the Borrower that
is required to execute a counterpart of this Agreement after the date hereof pursuant to the Credit
Agreement or any other Credit Document shall become a Pledgor hereunder by (x) executing a
counterpart hereof or a Joinder Agreement and delivering the same to the Pledgee, (y) delivering
supplements to Annexes A through G hereto as are necessary to cause such annexes to
be complete and accurate with respect to such additional Pledgor on such date and (z) taking all
actions as specified in this Agreement as would have been taken by such Pledgor had it been an
original party to this Agreement, in each case with all documents required above to be delivered to
the Pledgee and with all documents and actions required above to be taken to the reasonable
satisfaction of the Pledgee.

          31. LIMITED OBLIGATIONS. It is the desire and intent of each Pledgor and the Secured
Creditors that this Agreement shall be enforced against each Pledgor to the fullest extent
permissible under the laws applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought.

25

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in furtherance of the foregoing, it
is noted that the obligations of each Pledgor constituting a Subsidiary Guarantor have been limited
as provided in the Subsidiaries Guaranty.

          32. RELEASE OF PLEDGORS. If at any time all of the Equity Interests of any Pledgor owned by
the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries are sold to a Person other than a Credit Party in a
transaction permitted pursuant to the Credit Agreement (and which does not violate the terms of any
other Secured Debt Agreement then in effect), then, such Pledgor shall be released as a Pledgor
pursuant to this Agreement without any further action hereunder (it being understood that the sale
of all of the Equity Interests in any Person that owns, directly or indirectly, all of the Equity
Interests in any Pledgor shall be deemed to be a sale of all of the Equity Interests in such
Pledgor for purposes of this Section), and the Pledgee is authorized and directed to execute and
deliver such instruments of release as are reasonably satisfactory to it. At any time that the
Borrower desires that a Pledgor be released from this Agreement as provided in this Section
32, the Borrower shall deliver to the Pledgee a certificate signed by a principal executive
officer of the Borrower stating that the release of such Pledgor is permitted pursuant to this
Section 32. If requested by Pledgee (although the Pledgee shall have no obligation to make
any such request), the Borrower shall furnish legal opinions (from counsel reasonably acceptable to
the Pledgee) to the effect set forth in the immediately preceding sentence. The Pledgee shall have
no liability whatsoever to any other Secured Creditor as a result of the release of any Pledgor by
it in accordance with, or which it believes to be in accordance with, this Section 32.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each Pledgor and the Pledgee have caused this Agreement to be executed by
their duly elected officers duly authorized as of the date first above written.
