consider any such request in good faith and, to the extent possible without disruption to its

obligations under this Agreement, Colt Defense shall be entitled to cease providing all services

its direct damages incurred as a result of such default by CMC. Before exercising any default
remedies, Colt Defense shall provide written notice to CMC specifying the default in question and

event shall Colt Defense be entitled to recover indirect, special, punitive or consequential
damages. It is understood and agreed that failure by CMC to pay any amount due under Section 8.1
shall not constitute a default by CMC provided that CMC executes a promissory note with respect to
such unpaid amount as contemplated by Section 8.1.

ARTICLE VIII. PAYMENT OF FEES/ INFLATION ADJUSTMENT

     8.1 Payment. All fees for Services that come due under this Agreement will be payable
in full in arrears quarterly during the term of this Agreement, provided that, in the event that
CMC does not pay any portion of such fees on the due date, CMC shall not be deemed to be in default
with respect thereto if CMC executes and delivers to Colt Defense a promissory note for the unpaid
portion in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit “A”. Each such promissory note shall bear interest at
a per annum rate of 6% and shall be secured hereby and pursuant to the terms of such note by a
security interest pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code (“UCC”) in all of CMC’s goods, accounts,
chattel paper, commercial tort claims, deposit accounts, documents, general intangibles,
instruments, investment property, letter-of-credit rights, and letters of credit (in each case as
such term is defined in the UCC, such property being hereinafter referred to collectively as the
“Collateral”), subject to any preexisting liens. This Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a
security agreement to that extent and Colt Defense is hereby authorized to record a financing
statement or to take such other action as is reasonably required in order to perfect its security
interest in such Collateral. If not sooner paid, the entire unpaid amount due Colt Defense pursuant
to this Agreement and any such promissory notes shall be paid, with accrued interest as provided
herein and in such note(s), on the earlier to occur of (i) the termination date of this Agreement,
(ii) three (3) years after the date of this Agreement, (iii) the closing of the sale of all or
substantially all of the stock or assets of CMC or its parent company, including pursuant to a

the making by CMC of a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, (ii) the filing by CMC of a
voluntary petition in bankruptcy, (iii) CMC being adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or having had
entered against it an order for relief in any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, (iv) the filing
by CMC of a petition or answer seeking reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment,
liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under any statute, law or regulation, (v) the filing by
CMC of an answer or other pleading admitting or failing to contest the material allegations of a
petition filed against it in any proceeding specified in clause (vii) below, (vi) seeking,
consenting to or acquiescing in the appointment of a trustee, receiver or liquidator of CMC or of
all or any substantial part of the assets of CMC or (vii) the failure to obtain dismissal within
sixty days of the commencement of any proceeding against CMC seeking reorganization, arrangement,
composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under any statute, law or
regulation, or the entry of any order appointing a trustee, liquidator or receiver of CMC of all or
any substantial portion of the assets of CMC.

     8.2 Proration upon Early Termination. In the event of early termination of this
Agreement pursuant to Section 1.3, all fees payable hereunder shall be prorated for the one-year
period in which termination occurs.

     8.3 Inflation Adjustment. The fees referred to in Sections 2.2, 3.2, 4.2 and 5.2 of
this Agreement shall increase by 2% per year during each year in which this Agreement is in effect,
such increase to be effective as of the anniversary date of this Agreement.

     8.4 Out-of-Pocket Expenses. It is not contemplated that Colt Defense shall incur any
out-of-pocket expenses solely for the benefit of CMC in connection with the performance of this
Agreement, but in such event, CMC shall either pay such expenses directly itself or reimburse

Colt Defense promptly upon receipt of an invoice for any such out-of-pocket expenses incurred by
