 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the agreements, provisions and covenants contained herein, the
parties hereto agree as follows: 
  
 1. LC Account; Cash
Collateralization of Letter of Credit. 
  
 (a) Account Creation and Control. The Administrative Agent has established with the Depositary, and the Depositary shall maintain until instructed to the contrary by the Administrative Agent, the LC Account for the benefit of the
Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks and under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent. The LC Account shall be a non-interest bearing cash collateral deposit account designated as BearingPoint, Inc. (Cash Collateral
Account), Account No.                         . Without limiting the foregoing, the parties hereto agree that the Depositary
will comply with all instructions originated by the Administrative Agent directing the disposition of funds now or hereafter in the LC Account without further consent of the Borrower or any other Person, and that the Depositary will not honor any
instructions with respect to the LC Account other than those of the Administrative Agent. 
  
 Payment into the LC Account hereunder should be made to Bank of America, N.A. by a wire transfer of immediately available funds directed
as follows: 
  

			
	 	 	Bank of America, N.A
	 	 	Concord, CA
	 	 	ABA# 121000358
	 	 	Account No.:                     

  
 (b)
Initial Deposit and Additional Funding. As of the date hereof, LC Cash Collateral in the initial amount of 107.5% of the Aggregate Available Amount as of the date hereof has been deposited into the LC Account in accordance with this
Agreement. Not later than the tenth (10th) Business Day of each month, the Administrative Agent shall select a
Revaluation Date and thereupon determine whether the amount of LC Cash Collateral is less than 107.5% of the then Aggregate Available Amount, giving effect, inter alia, to any changes in the Dollar Equivalent determination thereof resulting
from such Revaluation Date (the “LC Cash Collateral Threshold”), and in the event any such shortfall shall occur, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt written notice thereof 

  

 2 

 
(in accordance with the notice provisions contained in the Credit Agreement, which provisions are incorporated by reference herein as provided below) and the
Borrower, within one (1) Business Day of receipt of such notice, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent immediately available funds in an amount not less than such shortfall, which the Administrative Agent shall cause to be deposited into
the LC Account as additional LC Cash Collateral. 
  
 (c) Payment of Letter of Credit Fee and Fronting Fees. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Credit Agreement to the contrary, and notwithstanding the occurrence of the Facility Termination Date, the Letter of Credit Fee in
respect of each Letter of Credit provided for in Section 2.03(i) of the Credit Agreement and all the fees and charges payable under Section 2.03(j) of the Credit Agreement shall each be and remain payable hereunder in respect
of the outstanding Letters of Credit, except that (i) the “Applicable Rate” shall (subject to the last sentence of this subsection (c)) be (w) from and including the date hereof through May 25, 2005, 1.75%,
(x) 2.50% from and including May 26, 2005 through July 25, 2005, (y) 3.50% from and including July 26, 2005 through October 25, 2005, and (z) 4.50% at all times thereafter, (ii) the Letter of Credit Fees and
fronting and other fees and charges shall be due and payable in full in arrears (x) on the last Business Day of each calendar month and (y) on the date when the Aggregate Available Amount shall have been reduced to $0 and no unpaid
reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit shall exist, and (iii) not later than the third (3rd) Business Day after each date that Letter of Credit Fees and fronting and other fees and charges are due and payable hereunder, the Administrative Agent, prior to making any demand on the Borrower for payment of the same, and
whether or not advance notice thereof shall have been given to the Borrower, shall withdraw from the LC Account sufficient funds (to the extent then available therein) for the payment of the same and shall promptly distribute such (x) Letter of
Credit Fee amounts to the Lenders in accordance with their Applicable Percentages and (y) amount of fronting and other fees and charges as appropriate under Section 2.03(j) of the Credit Agreement; provided that the
Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to withdraw or disburse funds in respect of fees and charges payable under Section 2.03(j) of the Credit Agreement unless the applicable Issuing Bank shall have provided the
Administrative Agent with timely notice of the applicable amounts due and owing to it. Such Letter of Credit Fees and fronting and other fees and charges shall continue to be computed in the manner provided in Section 2.10 of the Credit
Agreement. In the event the Borrower enters into any other senior credit financing, or is issued a letter of credit, after the date hereof, and incurs or agrees to pay in connection therewith either a drawn spread over the Eurocurrency Rate (or
similar LIBOR-based rate) or a fee substantially similar to the Letter of Credit Fee (the “New Spread”), then the Applicable Rate, commencing with the effective date of such financing or the issue date of such letter of credit,
shall be the greater of (i) such rate as determined in this Section l(c) above and (ii) the New Spread plus 50 basis points. 
  
 (d) Drawings Under Letters of Credit. Upon a drawing under a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank shall give notice thereof (and of
the date on which it intends to honor such drawing (the “Honor Date”)) to the Administrative Agent and, promptly upon receipt of such notice (and if practicable no later than the Honor Date), the 

  

 3 

 
Administrative Agent shall withdraw from the LC Account sufficient funds (to the extent then available therein) for the reimbursement of the applicable
Issuing Bank and pay such funds to the applicable Issuing Bank in reimbursement for such drawing. In the event that there shall at any time be insufficient funds then on deposit in the LC Account to fully fund any such drawing, upon notice thereof
from the Administrative Agent, the Lender that is not the Issuing Bank with respect to such drawing shall promptly pay to the Issuing Bank its Applicable Percentage of such drawing, and such payment shall constitute the funding of its participation
pursuant to the last sentence of Section 2.03(c)(iii) of the Credit Agreement. The parties acknowledge that the Lenders’ participations (and their rights and obligations in respect thereof) in the Letters of Credit arising under the
Credit Agreement and the Borrower’s reimbursement obligations with respect to the Letters of Credit arising under the Credit Agreement shall continue hereunder, but that no Loans shall be available under the Credit Agreement in respect of
drawings and each Lender’s obligation to fund its participation shall be subject only to the provision of this paragraph, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.03 of the Credit Agreement. 
  
 (e) Reductions in Stated Amount. In the event any
Letter of Credit is canceled or expires or in the event of any permanent reduction in the maximum amount available at any time for drawing under a Letter of Credit (i) the applicable Issuing Bank shall give prompt written notice thereof to the
Administrative Agent and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall with reasonable promptness withdraw from the LC Account and return to the Borrower funds in an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the reduction in the Aggregate Available Amount
resulting from such expiration, cancellation or reduction and (y) the amount that can be withdrawn from the LC Account without reducing LC Cash Collateral below the LC Cash Collateral Threshold. 
  
 2. Survival and Incorporation of Certain Provisions.
Without limiting the foregoing, the following provisions of the Credit Agreement shall be and remain in full force and effect for all purposes hereof and of the Security Agreement and the Guaranty notwithstanding the occurrence of the Facility
Termination Date, and are hereby (together with any definitions contained in the Credit Agreement referred to in such provisions, it being understood and agreed that (x) this Agreement shall constitute a Loan Document, (y) each Letter of

 4. No Delays; Waiver, Etc. No delay or failure on the part of
the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank in exercising, and no course of dealing with respect to, any power or right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Administrative Agent or any Issuing
Bank of any power or right hereunder preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power or right. The remedies herein provided are to the fullest extent permitted by law cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies

 5 

 
extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever
currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Issuing Bank or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or
hereafter existing under this Agreement to such Issuing Bank, irrespective of whether or not such Issuing Bank shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations of the Borrower may be contingent or unmatured or are owed
to a branch or office of such Issuing Bank different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights
and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that each Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Issuing Bank agrees to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application,
