or

(o) which is subject to any counterclaim, deduction, defense, setoff or dispute but
only to the extent of any such counterclaim, deduction, defense, setoff or dispute.

In the event that a Receivable which was previously an Eligible Receivable ceases to be an
Eligible Receivable hereunder, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof on and at

to time on any Borrowing Date a Loan to the Borrower; provided that (A) there shall be no more than
three Borrowing Dates (excluding any Additional Loans), (B) the aggregate principal amount of each
Lender’s Loans (excluding any Additional Loans and PIK Amounts) shall not exceed such Lender’s
Commitment and (C) the aggregate principal amount of all Loans (excluding any Additional Loans and
PIK Amounts) outstanding shall not exceed the Maximum Loan Amount. Any amounts borrowed and repaid
or prepaid may not be reborrowed. If at any time after the Closing Date any demand, any claim or
any request for any payment is made under or in respect of any Payment Guaranty and such demand,
claim or request shall not have been satisfied in full within five Business Days after such demand,
claim or request is made, the Lenders shall have the right (in their sole discretion and in
accordance with their Aggregate Exposure Percentage) to elect to cause the Borrower to borrow
additional Loans hereunder (any such additional Loans, the “Additional Loans”), the
proceeds of which shall be used by the Borrower (together with any other available funds) within
one Business Day following receipt of such proceeds to satisfy in full such demand, claim or
request. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, the terms of the Additional
Loans shall be identical in all respects to all other Loans made hereunder.

2.2 Procedure for Borrowing. The Borrower may borrow under the Commitments on any Business Day; provided that the
Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice prior to 11:00 A.M., New York City
time, twelve Business Days (or one Business Day, in the case of any borrowing on or after the
Second Amendment Effective Date) prior to the requested Borrowing Date, specifying (i) the amount
of Loans to be borrowed and (ii) the requested Borrowing Date. Each borrowing under the
Commitments shall be in a minimum principal amount of $4,000,000. Upon receipt of any such notice
the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof. Each Lender with an unfunded
Commitment will make the amount of its pro rata share of each borrowing (based upon the relative
amounts of unfunded Commitments of the Lenders) available (i) to the Administrative Agent for the
account of the Borrower at the Funding Office no later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the
Borrowing Date requested by the Borrower in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent
or (ii) if agreed between such Lender and the Administrative Agent, to the Borrower pursuant to
written instructions provided by the Borrower. If the borrowing is funded through the
Administrative Agent, such borrowing will then be made available to the Borrower by the
Administrative Agent pursuant to written instructions provided to the Administrative Agent by the
Borrower.

 

21

 

2.3 Repayment of Loans. The Borrower shall repay all outstanding Loans on the Maturity Date.

2.4 Optional Prepayments. The Borrower may at any time and from time to time prepay the Loans, in whole or in part,
subject to Section 2.6 hereof, upon irrevocable notice delivered to the Administrative Agent no
later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, three Business Days prior thereto, which notice shall
specify the date and amount of prepayment. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative
Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof. If any such notice is given, the amount specified
in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with accrued
interest to such date on the amount prepaid. Partial prepayments of Loans shall be in an aggregate
principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple thereof.

2.5 Mandatory Prepayments. (a) If on any date any Group Member shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale or
Recovery Event then, unless a Reinvestment Notice shall be delivered in respect thereof, such Net
Cash Proceeds shall be applied on such date toward the prepayment of the Loans as set forth in
Section 2.5(d); provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the aggregate Net Cash
Proceeds of Asset Sales and Recovery Events that may be excluded from the foregoing requirement
pursuant to a Reinvestment Notice shall not exceed $250,000 and (ii) on each Reinvestment
Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount with respect to the relevant
Reinvestment Event shall be applied toward the prepayment of the Loans as set forth in Section
2.5(d).

(b) If on any date of determination the aggregate principal amount of Loans (excluding any
Additional Loans) outstanding exceeds the Borrowing Base (such excess amount being referred to
herein as, an “Over Advance”), the Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an aggregate amount
equal to such Over Advance on such date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall not be
required to make a prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.5(b) so long as (i) the aggregate amount
of Over Advances on such date does not exceed $3,000,000, (ii) no Default or Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, (iii) an amount equal to (A) 110% of the aggregate principal amount of
Loans (excluding any Additional Loans) outstanding on such date minus (B) the Borrowing Base is
deposited by the Borrower on such date in an interest-bearing segregated account subject to the
sole dominion and control of the Administrative
Agent (the “Over Advance Account”), and (iv) upon the earlier of (A) the next date on
which the Borrower is required to deliver to the Administrative Agent a Borrowing Base Certificate
pursuant to Section 6.2 and (B) the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, the Borrower
either (i) directs the Administrative Agent to apply the proceeds in the Over Advance Account equal
to the then applicable Over Advances to the prepayment of the Loans (with the remaining balance to
be paid to the Borrower in such account designated by the Borrower) or (ii) only to the extent no
Over Advance exists on such date, directs the Administrative Agent to (and the Administrative Agent
thereafter shall promptly, but in any event within two (2) Business Days of receiving such
direction) deposit all amounts in the Over Advance Account to such account designated by the
Borrower in writing at such time.

(c) If any Indebtedness shall be incurred by any Group Member (excluding any Indebtedness
incurred in accordance with Section 7.2), an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof
shall be applied on the date of such incurrence toward the prepayment of the Loans as set forth in
Section 2.5(d).

 

22

 

(d) Amounts to be applied in connection with prepayments made pursuant to Section 2.5 shall
be applied to the prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.9. Each prepayment of the
Loans under Section 2.5 shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on
the amount prepaid and the prepayment premium pursuant to Section 2.6.

2.6 Prepayment Premium. All voluntary prepayments of principal of Loans pursuant to Section 2.4, all mandatory
repayments of principal of Loans required pursuant to Section 2.5 and all repayments of principal
of Loans required pursuant to Section 8 as a result of the acceleration thereof will be subject to
payment by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each Lender, of a
prepayment premium on the principal amount so prepaid or repaid, of 4.0%; provided that
such prepayment premium shall be reduced to 2.0% in the event the Borrower makes more than one
borrowing under the Commitment pursuant to Section 2.2; provided, further that no
such prepayment premium shall be required to be paid by the Borrower if such prepayment or
repayment was required to be made as a result of a Specified Change of Control Transaction in which
the per share market value of the common stock is equal to or greater than $0.71 per share. Such
prepayment premium shall be due and payable upon the date of any voluntary prepayment or the due
date of such mandatory prepayment or required repayment, as the case may be.

2.7 Interest Rates and Payment Dates. (a) Each Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Interest Rate.

(b) If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, all amounts shall bear interest at a
rate per annum equal to the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant to the
foregoing provisions of this Section plus 2.0%.

(c) Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, provided that
interest accruing pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section shall be payable from time to time on
demand.

(d) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower may elect to
(i) pay all interest due on any Interest Payment Date in cash or (ii) pay up to 100% of the
interest due on such Interest Payment Date by adding such interest to the principal amount of the
outstanding Loans and the remaining portion of the interest due on such Interest Payment Date in
cash (such election, a “PIK Election”; and such interest added to the principal amount of
the outstanding Loans, the “PIK Amounts”). Unless otherwise notified at least five
Business Days prior to the applicable Interest Payment
Date (and in the absence of an Event of Default), the Borrower will be deemed to have made a
PIK Election with respect to all of the interest due on any Interest Payment Date. In the event of
any PIK Election, the Parent Guarantor shall issue to the Lenders (in accordance with their
Aggregate Exposure Percentage) additional warrants in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H to
purchase a number of shares (not less than zero) of common stock of the Parent Guarantor equal to
(x) an amount equal to the product of (i) the Closing Date Warrant Shares plus the Second Amendment
Effective Date Warrant Shares and (ii) a ratio equal to (A) the aggregate principal amount of Loans
outstanding (including all PIK Amounts) at such date over (B) the aggregate principal amount of
Loans outstanding (excluding all PIK Amounts) at such date minus (y) the aggregate amount
of Closing Date Warrant Shares, the Second Amendment Effective Date Warrant Shares and any
Additional Warrants issued to the Lenders since the Closing Date (such additional warrants, the
“Additional Warrants”). The Parent Guarantor shall issue any such Additional Warrants at
the time of each such PIK Election. In addition, the Parent Guarantor shall issue to the Lenders
(in accordance with their Aggregate Exposure Percentage) Additional Warrants on the final Interest
Payment Date (whether at the stated maturity or otherwise) if the Borrower has made a PIK Election
with respect to more than 50% of the aggregate amount of accrued interest payable on the Loans up
to such final Interest Payment Date. The amount of Additional Warrants issued on the final
Interest Payment Date shall be calculated as set forth above in this paragraph assuming that the
Borrower had made a PIK Election with respect to all interest paid on such final Interest Payment
Date.

 

23

 

2.8 Computation of Interest and Fees. Interest and fees payable pursuant hereto shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day
year for the actual days elapsed.

2.9 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments. (a) Each borrowing by the Borrower from the Lenders hereunder and each payment by the
Borrower on account of any fee shall be made pro rata according to the respective
Commitments of the Lenders then in effect.

(b) Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and
interest and premium on the Loans shall be made pro rata according to the
respective outstanding principal amounts of the Loans then held by the Lenders. Amounts prepaid
under Section 2.5(b) shall be applied to Loans other than Additional Loans. Amounts prepaid on
account of the Loans may not be reborrowed.

(c) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments (including prepayments) to be
made by the Borrower hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, premium, fees or
otherwise, shall be made without setoff or counterclaim, on the due date thereof to the
Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, in immediately available funds. The
Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to each relevant Lender promptly upon receipt
in like funds as received, net of any amounts owing by such Lender pursuant to Section 9.7. If any
payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be
extended to the next succeeding Business Day. In the case of any extension of any payment of
principal pursuant to the preceding sentence, interest thereon shall be payable at the then
applicable rate during such extension.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior
to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its share of such
borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such
Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent
may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If
such amount
is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on the Borrowing Date
therefor, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such amount with interest
thereon, at a rate equal to the greater of (i) the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (ii) a rate
determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank
compensation, for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the
Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with
respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest
error. If such Lender’s share of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent
by such Lender within three Business Days after such Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall
also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at Interest Rate then in effect, on
demand, from the Borrower.

(e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Borrower prior
to the date of any payment due to be made by the Borrower hereunder that the Borrower will not make
such payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower is
making such payment, and the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, in reliance
upon such assumption, make available to the Lenders their respective pro rata
shares of a corresponding amount. If such payment is not made to the Administrative Agent by the
Borrower within three Business Days after such due date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled
to recover, on demand, from each Lender to which any amount which was made available pursuant to
the preceding sentence, such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum equal to the daily
average Federal Funds Effective Rate. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of the
Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Borrower.

 

24

 

(f) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to
Section 2.9(d), 2.9(e) or 9.7, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and
notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the
Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender for the benefit of the Administrative Agent to
satisfy such Lender’s obligations to it under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations
are fully paid, and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for,
and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under any such Section, in the
case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent
in its discretion.

2.10 Requirements of Law. (a) If any Lender shall have reasonably determined that the adoption of or any change in any
Requirement of Law (i) regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof
or compliance by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender with any request or
directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental
Authority made subsequent to the date hereof or shall have the effect of reducing the rate of
return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder
to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such
adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s
policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material or
(ii) subjects any Lender to any Tax (other than Indemnified Taxes or Excluded Taxes) on its loans,
loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves,
other liabilities or capital attributable thereto, then from time to time, after submission by such
Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor, the
Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender
or such corporation for such reduction.

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and
Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in
connection therewith shall be deemed to be a change in law, regardless of the date enacted,
adopted or issued.

(c) A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by
any Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive in the
absence of manifest error. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, the Borrower
shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any amounts incurred more
than six months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of such Lender’s intention
to claim compensation therefor; provided that, if the circumstances giving rise to such
claim have a retroactive effect, then such six-month period shall be extended to include the period
of such retroactive effect. The obligations of the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall survive
the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable
hereunder.

2.11 Taxes. (a) Withholding of Taxes; Gross-Up. Each payment by any Loan Party under any Loan
Document shall be made without withholding for any Taxes, unless such withholding is required by
any law. If any Withholding Agent determines, in good faith, that it is so required to withhold
Taxes, then such Withholding Agent may so withhold and shall timely pay the full amount of withheld
Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. If such Taxes are
Indemnified Taxes, then the amount payable by such Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so
that, net of such withholding (including such withholding applicable to additional amounts payable
under this Section), the applicable Recipient receives the amount it would have received had no
such withholding been made.

 

25

 

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay any Other
Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified
Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority, such Loan Party shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental
Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of
such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(d) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally
indemnify each Recipient for any Indemnified Taxes that are paid or payable by such Recipient in
connection with any Loan Document (including amounts paid or payable under this Section 2.11(d))
and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such
Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental
Authority. The indemnity under this Section 2.11(d) shall be paid within 10 days after the
Recipient delivers to any Loan Party a certificate stating the amount of any Indemnified Taxes so
paid or payable by such Recipient. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or
payable absent manifest error. Such Recipient shall deliver a copy of such certificate to the
Administrative Agent.

(e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the
Administrative Agent for any Taxes (but, in the case of any Indemnified Taxes, only to the extent
that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes
and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so) attributable to such Lender that
are paid or payable by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document and any
reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were
correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnity
under this Section 2.11(e) shall be paid within 10 days after the Administrative Agent delivers to
the applicable Lender a certificate stating the amount
of Taxes so paid or payable by the Administrative Agent. Such certificate shall be conclusive
of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the
Administrative Agent to setoff and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under
any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other
source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).

(f) Status of Lenders. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from, or
reduction of, any applicable withholding Tax with respect to any payments under any Loan Document
shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably
requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed
documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such
payments to be made without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding. In addition, any Lender, if
requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation
prescribed by law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will
enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject
to any withholding (including backup withholding) or information reporting requirements.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution
and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Sections
2.11(f)(ii)(A) through (E) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s judgment such
completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or
expense (or, in the case of a change in a Requirement of Law, any incremental material unreimbursed
cost or expense) or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
Upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, any Lender shall update
any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.11(f).

 

26

 

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Borrower is a U.S.
Person, any Lender shall, if it is legally eligible to do so, deliver to the Borrower and
the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies reasonably requested by the Borrower and
the Administrative Agent) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party
hereto, duly completed and executed copies of whichever of the following is applicable:

(A) in the case of a Lender that is a U.S. Person, IRS Form W-9 certifying that such
Lender is exempt from U.S. Federal backup withholding tax;

(B) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to
which the United States is a party (1) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan
Document, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal
withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (2) with respect
to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an
exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business
profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(C) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender for whom payments under any Loan Document
constitute income that is effectively connected with such Lender’s conduct of a trade or
business in the United States, IRS Form W-8ECI;

(D) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for
portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code both (1) IRS Form W-8BEN and (2) a
certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F (a “U.S. Tax Certificate”) to the
effect that such Lender is not (a) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of
the Code, (b) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section
881(c)(3)(B) of the Code (c) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section
881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (d)
conducting a trade or business in the United States with which the relevant interest
payments are effectively connected;

(E) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender that is not the beneficial owner of payments made
under any Loan Document (including a partnership or a participating Lender) (1) an IRS Form
W-8IMY on behalf of itself and (2) the relevant forms prescribed in clauses (A), (B), (C),
(D) and (F) of this paragraph (f)(ii) that would be required of each such beneficial owner
or partner of such partnership if such beneficial owner or partner were a Lender;
provided, however, that if the Lender is a partnership and one or more of
its partners are claiming the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the
Code, such Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Certificate on behalf of such partners; or

(F) any other form prescribed by law as a basis for claiming exemption from, or a
reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax together with such supplementary documentation
necessary to enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the amount of Tax
(if any) required by law to be withheld.

 

27

 

(g) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion
exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been
indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.11 (including additional amounts paid pursuant to this
Section 2.11), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to
the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to
such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including any Taxes) of such indemnified party and
without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect
to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay
to such indemnified party the amount paid to such indemnified party pursuant to the previous
sentence (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental
Authority) in the event such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such
Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.11(g), in no
event will any indemnified party be required to pay any amount to any indemnifying party pursuant
to this Section 2.11(g) if such payment would place such indemnified party in a less favorable
position (on a net after-Tax basis) than such indemnified party would have been in if the
indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid.
This Section 2.11(g) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its
Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the
indemnifying party or any other Person.

(h) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.11 shall survive any
assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and
the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other obligations under any Loan Document.

2.12 Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of
Section 2.10 or 2.11(a) with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use
reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another
lending office for any Loans affected by such event with the object of avoiding the consequences of
such event; provided, that such designation is made on terms that, in the sole judgment of
such Lender, cause such Lender and its lending office(s) to suffer no economic, legal or regulatory
disadvantage, and provided, further, that nothing in this Section shall affect or
postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Section
2.10 or 2.11(a).

2.13 Tax Treatment of Units. The Parent Guarantor, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree
(i) to treat the Loans made on the Closing Date and the Closing Date Warrants as an investment unit
consisting of Warrants and a Loan and to allocate the purchase price between the underlying
Warrants and Loan in the proportions set forth on Schedule 2.13 hereto and (ii) unless required by
applicable law, each of the Parent Guarantor, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders will not take any position on a tax return inconsistent with (i) or (ii).

2.14 Replacement of Lenders. The Borrower shall be permitted to replace any Lender that (a) requests reimbursement for
amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.10 or Section 2.11 or (b) defaults in its obligation to make
Loans hereunder, with a replacement financial institution; provided that (i) such
replacement does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (ii) no Default or Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (iii) prior to any
replacement, such Lender shall have taken no action under Section 2.12 so as to eliminate the
continued need for payment of amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.10 or Section 2.11, (iv) the
replacement financial institution shall purchase, at par, all Loans and other amounts owing to such
replaced Lender on or prior to the date of replacement, (v) the replacement financial institution,
if not already a Lender, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (vi) the
replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of
Section 10.6, (vii) the Borrower shall pay all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to
Section 2.10 or Section 2.11, as the case may be, in respect of any period prior to the date on
which such replacement shall be consummated, and (viii) any such replacement shall not be deemed to
be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall
have against the replaced Lender.

SECTION 3. FEES

3.1
Closing Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender (on a
pro rata basis based on each such Lender’s respective Aggregate Exposure Percentage) a closing fee
on the Closing Date of $180,000.

SECTION 4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

To induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make
the Loans, the Parent Guarantor and Borrower hereby jointly and severally represent and warrant to
the Administrative Agent and each Lender that:

4.1 Financial Condition. The audited consolidated balance sheets of the Parent Guarantor as at December 31, 2010,
December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, and the related consolidated statements of income and of
cash flows for the fiscal years ended on such dates, reported on by and accompanied by an
unqualified report from Ernst & Young LLP, present fairly, in all material respects, the
consolidated financial condition of the Parent Guarantor as at such date, and the consolidated
results of its operations and its consolidated cash flows for the respective fiscal years then
ended. The unaudited consolidated balance sheets of the Parent Guarantor as at September 30, 2010,
June 30, 2010 and March 31, 2010, and the related unaudited consolidated statements of income and
cash flows for the three-, six- and nine-month periods ended on such dates, present fairly, in all
material respects, the consolidated financial condition of the Parent Guarantor as at such date,
and the consolidated results of its operations and its consolidated
cash flows for the three-, six- and nine-month periods then ended (subject to normal year-end
audit adjustments). All such financial statements, including the related schedules and notes
thereto, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied consistently throughout the periods
involved (except as approved by the aforementioned firm of accountants and disclosed therein). As
of the Closing Date, no Group Member has any Guarantee Obligations, contingent liabilities and
liabilities for taxes, or any long-term leases or unusual forward or long-term commitments,
including any interest rate or foreign currency swap or exchange transaction or other obligation in
respect of derivatives, that are not reflected in the most recent financial statements referred to
in this paragraph or previously disclosed by the Parent Guarantor in its filings and current
reports with the SEC, except for any such liabilities or obligations which could not, individually
or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. During the period from December 31, 2010 to
and including the date hereof there has been no Disposition by any Group Member of any material
part of its business or property.

4.2 No Change. Since March 30, 2011, there has been no development or event that has had or could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.3 Existence; Compliance with Law. Each Group Member (a) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the
laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, (b) has the power and authority, and the legal right,
to own and operate its property, to lease the property it operates as lessee and to conduct the
business in which it is currently engaged, (c) is duly qualified as a foreign corporation or other
organization and in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or
operation of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification and (d) is in
compliance with all Requirements of Law except, in the case of clauses (c) and (d), to the extent
that the failure to be so qualified or comply therewith could not, in the aggregate, reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

29

 

4.4 Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations. Each Loan Party has the power and authority, and the legal right, to make, deliver and
perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrower, to borrow the
Loans hereunder. Each Loan Party has taken all necessary organizational action to authorize the
execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case
of the Borrower, to authorize the borrowing of the Loans on the terms and conditions of this
Agreement. No consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or other act by or in respect
of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is required in connection with the borrowings
hereunder or with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this
Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, except (i) consents, authorizations, filings and notices
described in Schedule 4.4, which consents, authorizations, filings and notices have been obtained
or made and are in full force and effect, (ii) the filings referred to in Section 4.19 and (iii)
immaterial consents, authorizations, filings and notices. Each Loan Document has been duly
executed and delivered on behalf of each Loan Party party thereto. This Agreement constitutes, and
each other Loan Document upon execution will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of
each Loan Party party thereto, enforceable against each such Loan Party in accordance with its
terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally
and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at
law).

4.5 No Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the
borrowings hereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof will not violate any material Requirement
of Law or any material Contractual Obligation of any Group Member and will not result in, or
require, the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of their respective properties or revenues
pursuant to any Requirement of Law or any such Contractual Obligation (other than the Liens created
by the Security Documents). No Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation applicable to the
Parent Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.

4.6 Litigation. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.6, no litigation, investigation or proceeding of or
before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority is pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower or
the Parent Guarantor, threatened by or against any Group Member or against any of their respective
properties or revenues (a) with respect to any of the Loan Documents or any of the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby, or (b) that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.

4.7 No Default. No Group Member is in default under or with respect to any of its Contractual Obligations
in any respect that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Default or
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

4.8 Ownership of Property; Liens. Each Group Member has title in fee simple to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its
real property, and good title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its other property, and
none of such property is subject to any Lien except as permitted by Section 7.3.

4.9 Intellectual Property. Each Group Member owns, or is licensed to use, all Intellectual Property necessary for the
conduct of its business as currently conducted. To the best knowledge of each Group Member, no
material claim has been asserted and is pending by any Person challenging or questioning the use of
any Intellectual Property or the validity or effectiveness of any Intellectual Property, nor does
the Borrower or the Parent Guarantor know of any valid basis for any such claim. To the best
knowledge of any Loan Party, the use of Intellectual Property by each Group Member does not
infringe on the rights of any Person in any material respect.

4.10 Taxes. Each Group Member has filed or caused to be filed all Federal, state and other material Tax
returns that are required to be filed and has paid all Taxes shown to be due and payable on said
returns or on any assessments made against it or any of its property and all other Taxes, fees or
other charges imposed on it or any of its property by any Governmental Authority (other than any
the amount or validity of which are currently being contested in good faith by appropriate
proceedings and with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided on the
books of the relevant Group Member); no Tax Lien has been filed, and, to the knowledge of the
Borrower or the Parent Guarantor, no claim is being asserted, with respect to any such Tax, fee or
other charge.

4.11 Federal Regulations. No part of the proceeds of any Loans will be used (a) for “buying” or “carrying” any
“margin stock” within the respective meanings of each of the quoted terms under Regulation U as now
and from time to time hereafter in effect for any purpose that violates the provisions of the
Regulations of the Board or (b) for any purpose that violates the provisions of the Regulations of
the Board. No more than 25% of the assets of the Group Members consist of “margin stock” as so

Member on account of employee health and welfare insurance have been paid or accrued as a liability
on the books of the relevant Group Member.

4.13 ERISA. (a) Except as could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have
a Material Adverse Effect: (i) each of the Loan Parties is in compliance with the applicable
provisions of ERISA and the provisions of the Code relating to Plans and the regulations and
published interpretations thereunder; (ii) no ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to

Financial Accounting Standards No. 106. The present value of all accumulated benefit obligations
under each Pension Plan (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 87) did not, as of the date of the most recent financial statements
reflecting such amounts, exceed by more than a material amount the fair market value of the assets
of such Pension Plan allocable to such accrued benefits, and the present value of all accumulated
benefit obligations of all underfunded Pension Plans (based on the assumptions used for purposes of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87) did not, as of the date of the most recent

value of the assets of all such underfunded Pension Plans.

Effect, (i) all employer and employee contributions required by applicable law or by the terms of
any Foreign Benefit Arrangement or Foreign Plan have been made, or, if applicable, accrued in

applicable regulatory authorities; and (iv) each such Foreign Benefit Arrangement and Foreign Plan
is in compliance (A) with all material provisions of applicable law and all material applicable
regulations and published interpretations thereunder with respect to such Foreign Benefit
Arrangement or Foreign Plan and (B) with the terms of such plan or arrangement.

4.14 Investment Company Act; Other Regulations. No Loan Party is an “investment company”, or a company “controlled” by an “investment
company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. No
Loan Party is subject to regulation under any Requirement of Law (other than Regulation X of
the Board) that limits its ability to incur Indebtedness.

 

31

 

4.15 Subsidiaries. Except as disclosed to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower in writing from time to
time after the Closing Date, (a) Schedule 4.15 sets forth the name and jurisdiction of
incorporation of each Subsidiary and, as to each such Subsidiary, the percentage of each class of
Capital Stock owned by any Loan Party and (b) there are no outstanding subscriptions, options,
warrants, calls, rights or other agreements or commitments (other than stock options granted to
employees or directors and directors’ qualifying shares) of any nature relating to any Capital
Stock of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, except as created by the Loan Documents.

4.16 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loans shall be used to finance working capital needs and other general
corporate purposes of the Parent Guarantor and its Subsidiaries. The proceeds of any Additional
Loans (together with any other available funds) shall be used solely to satisfy in full any demand,
claim or request for any payment made under or in respect of any Payment Guaranty.

4.17 Environmental Matters. Except as, in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect:

(a) the facilities and properties owned, leased or operated by any Group Member (the
“Properties”) do not contain, and have not previously contained, any Materials of
Environmental Concern in amounts or concentrations or under circumstances that constitute or
constituted a violation of, or could give rise to liability under, any Environmental Law;

(b) no Group Member has received or is aware of any notice of violation, alleged violation,

such notice will be received or is being threatened;

(c) Materials of Environmental Concern have not been transported or disposed of from the
Properties in violation of, or in a manner or to a location that could give rise to liability

4.18 Accuracy of Information, etc. No statement or information contained in this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any
other document, certificate or statement furnished by or on behalf of any Loan Party to the
Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, for use in connection with the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, contained as of the date such
statement, information, document or certificate was so furnished, any untrue statement of a
material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained herein
or therein not misleading. The projections and pro forma financial information
contained in the materials referenced above are based upon good faith estimates and assumptions
believed by management of the Borrower to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by
the Lenders that such financial information as it relates to future events is not to be viewed as
fact and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such financial information may
differ from the projected results set forth therein by a material amount. There is no fact known
to any Loan Party that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect that has not
been expressly disclosed herein, in the other Loan Documents or in any other documents,
certificates and statements furnished to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for use in
connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents.

4.19 Security Documents. (a) The Guarantee and Collateral Agreement is effective to create in favor of the
Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, a legal, valid and enforceable security
interest in the Collateral described therein and proceeds thereof. In the case of the Pledged
Stock described in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, when stock certificates representing
such Pledged Stock are delivered to the Administrative Agent (together with a properly completed
and signed stock power or endorsement), and in the case of the other Collateral described in the
Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, when financing statements and other filings specified on
Schedule 4.19 in appropriate form are filed in the offices specified on Schedule 4.19, the
Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security
interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in such Collateral and the proceeds
thereof, as security for the Obligations, in each case prior and superior in right to any other
Person (except for (i) Permitted Liens arising solely by operation of law and (ii) purchase money
liens permitted under Section 7.3).

(b) Upon execution and delivery, each of the Mortgages is effective to create in favor of the
Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, a legal, valid and enforceable Lien on the
Mortgaged Properties described therein and proceeds thereof, and when the Mortgages are filed in
the applicable filing or recording offices, each such Mortgage shall constitute a fully perfected
Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in the
Mortgaged Properties and the proceeds thereof, as security for the Obligations (as defined in the
relevant Mortgage), in each case prior
and superior in right to any other Person (other than Persons holding Liens and encumbrances
or rights permitted by the relevant Mortgage and this Agreement).

4.20 Solvency. Each of the Parent Guarantor and the Borrower, after giving effect to the incurrence of all
Indebtedness and obligations being incurred in connection with the Loan Documents, will be and will
continue to be, Solvent.

4.21 Regulation H. No Mortgage encumbers improved real property that is located in an area that has been
identified by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development as an area having special flood
hazards and in which flood insurance has been made available under the National Flood Insurance Act

4.22 Accuracy of Borrowing Base. At the time any Borrowing Base Certificate is delivered pursuant to this Agreement, each
Receivable included in the calculation of the Borrowing Base, (to the best knowledge of the Parent
Guarantor and the Borrower in the case of criteria that are subject to the Administrative Agent’s
Permitted Discretion) satisfies all criteria stated herein to be an Eligible Receivable.

the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or
any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate,
report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the
Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or
any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability
or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of any Loan Party a
party thereto to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Administrative Agent shall
not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or
performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other
Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party.

9.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in
relying, upon any instrument, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter,
telecopy or email message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be
genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon
advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants
and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may deem and
treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of
assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent.
The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under
this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence
of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders) as it deems
appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all
liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such
action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining
from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the
Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders), and such request and any
action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all
future holders of the Loans.

9.5 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence
of any Default or Event of Default unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a
Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and
stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent
receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The
Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as
shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all
Lenders); provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such
directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or
refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem
advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.

9.6 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its
officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates have made any
representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken,
including any review of the affairs of a Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party, shall be
deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Lender.
Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance
upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as
it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business,
operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and
their affiliates and made its own decision to make its Loans
hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will,
independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on
such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own
credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as
to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the
Loan Parties and their affiliates. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly
required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative
Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other
information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise),
prospects or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party that may come into
the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents,
advisors, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.

 

55

 

9.7 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent and its officers, directors,
employees, affiliates, agents, sub-agents, advisors and controlling persons (each, an “Agent
Indemnitee”) (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation
of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Aggregate Exposure Percentages in
effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section (or, if indemnification is
sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have
been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such Aggregate Exposure Percentages immediately prior
to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any
time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted
against such Agent Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this
Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein
or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by
such Agent Indemnitee under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no
Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a
final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such
Agent Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section shall
survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts
payable hereunder.

9.8 Administrative Agent in Its Individual Capacity. The Administrative Agent and its affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and
generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party as though the Administrative Agent
were not the Administrative Agent. With respect to its Loans made by it, the Administrative Agent
shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any
Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms
“Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity.

9.9 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 10 days’ notice to the
Lenders and the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the
Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to approval by the Borrower (which approval shall
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the
rights, powers
and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such
successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Administrative Agent’s
rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further
act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement
or any holders of the Loans; provided, however, that at any time when the Administrative Agent is
ColFin GNE Loan Funding, LLC, C-III Investments LLC or an Affiliate of either of them, then it
shall immediately resign as Administrative Agent upon the written request of the Required Lenders
in the event that any Affiliate of such Administrative Agent is not a Lender. If no successor
agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date that is 10 days following a
retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s
resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective, and the Lenders shall assume and perform
all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required
Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s
resignation as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 9 and of Section 10.5 shall
continue to inure to its benefit.

 

56

 

SECTION 10. MISCELLANEOUS

10.1 Amendments and Waivers. Neither this Agreement, any other Loan Document, nor any terms hereof or thereof may be
amended, supplemented or modified except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.1.
The Required Lenders and each Loan Party party to the relevant Loan Document may, or, with the
written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and each Loan Party party to the
relevant Loan Document may, from time to time, (a) enter into written amendments, supplements or
modifications hereto and to the other Loan Documents for the purpose of adding any provisions to
this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or
of the Loan Parties hereunder or thereunder or (b) waive, on such terms and conditions as the
Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, may specify in such instrument,
any of the requirements of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any Default or Event of
Default and its consequences; provided, however, that no such waiver and no such
amendment, supplement or modification shall (i) forgive the principal amount or extend the final
scheduled date of maturity of any Loan, reduce the stated rate of any interest or fee payable
hereunder (except (x) in connection with the waiver of applicability of any post-default increase
in interest rates (which waiver shall be effective with the consent of the Required Lenders) and
(y) any Lender may elect to reduce or cancel any Obligations owing to such Lender pursuant to the
terms of the Warrants without the consent of any other Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Loan
Party) or extend the scheduled date of any payment thereof, or increase the amount or extend the
expiration date of any Lender’s Commitment, in each case without the written consent of each Lender
directly affected thereby; (ii) eliminate or reduce the voting rights of any Lender under this
Section 10.1 without the written consent of such Lender; (iii) reduce any percentage specified in
the definition of Required Lenders, consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of
its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, release all or
substantially all of the Collateral or release all or substantially all of the Guarantors from
their obligations under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, in each case without the written
consent of all Lenders; or (iv) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 9 or any other
provision of any Loan Document that affects the Administrative Agent without the written consent of
the Administrative Agent. Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall
apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Loan Parties, the Lenders, the
Administrative Agent and all future holders of the Loans. In the case of any waiver, the Loan
Parties, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall be restored to their former position and
rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and any Default or Event
of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall
extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent
thereon.

10.2 Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon the respective parties hereto to be effective
shall be in writing (including by telecopy), and, unless otherwise expressly provided herein, shall

Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by

or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it
hereunder by electronic

procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.

10.3 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent
or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under the other Loan Documents
shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy,
power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein
provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided
by law.

10.4 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder, in the other Loan Documents and in any
document, certificate or statement delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall
survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans and other
extensions of credit hereunder.

10.5 Payment of Expenses and Taxes. The Borrower agrees:

(a) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent for all its reasonable out-of-pocket costs
and expenses incurred in connection with the development, preparation and execution of, and any
amendment, supplement or modification to, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other
documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation and administration of
the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the reasonable fees and disbursements
of counsel to the Administrative Agent and filing and recording fees and expenses;

 

58

 

(b) to pay or reimburse each Lender and the Administrative Agent for all its out-of-pocket
costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under
this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, including the fees and
disbursements of counsel (including the allocated fees and expenses of in-house counsel) to each
Lender and of counsel to the Administrative Agent;

(c) to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender and the Administrative Agent harmless from, any
and all recording and filing fees and any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from
any delay in paying, stamp, excise and other Taxes, if any, that may be payable or determined to be
payable in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation or administration of any
of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver
or consent under or in respect of, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other
documents; and

(d) to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender and the Administrative Agent and their respective
officers, directors, employees, affiliates, agents, sub-agents, advisors and controlling persons
(each, an “Indemnitee”) harmless from and against any and all other liabilities,
obligations, losses, claims, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including the reasonable fees, disbursements and
other charges of counsel) with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and
administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, including
any of the foregoing relating to the use of proceeds
of the Loans or the violation of, noncompliance with or liability under, any Environmental Law
applicable to the operations of any Group Member or any of the Properties and the reasonable fees
and expenses of legal counsel in connection with claims, actions or proceedings by any Indemnitee
against any Loan Party under any Loan Document (all the foregoing in this clause (d), collectively,
the “Indemnified Liabilities”), provided, that the Borrower shall have no
obligation hereunder to any Indemnitee with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such
Indemnified Liabilities are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent
jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.
Without limiting the foregoing, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Parent
Guarantor and the Borrower agrees not to assert and to cause its Subsidiaries not to assert, and
hereby waives and agrees to cause its Subsidiaries to waive, all rights for contribution or any
other rights of recovery with respect to all claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities,
settlements, damages, costs and expenses of whatever kind or nature, under or related to
Environmental Laws, that any of them might have by statute or otherwise against any Indemnitee.
All amounts due under this Section 10.5 shall be payable not later than 10 days after written
demand therefor. The agreements in this Section 10.5 shall survive the termination of this
Agreement and the repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

10.6 Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) the
Borrower and the Parent Guarantor may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or
obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted
assignment or transfer by the Borrower or the Parent Guarantor without such consent shall be null
and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder
except in accordance with this Section.

 

59

 

(b)(i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign
to one or more assignees (each, an “Assignee”), other than a natural person, all or a
portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its
Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent of the
Administrative Agent.

(ii) The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative
Agent an Assignment and Assumption and (2) the assigning Lender shall have paid in full any
amounts owing by it to the Administrative Agent. The Borrower agrees that it will cooperate
with such Lenders and the Administrative Agent and will execute and deliver, or cause to be
executed and delivered, all such documents as the Administrative Agent may reasonably
request to effect such assignment.

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) below, from
and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the Assignee thereunder
shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and
Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning
Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption,
be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and
Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such
Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of
Sections 2.10, 2.11 and 10.5). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations
under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.6 shall be treated for purposes of
this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in
accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.

(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall
maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a
register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and
principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time
(the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register
pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement,
notwithstanding notice to the contrary.

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning
Lender and an Assignee and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this
Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the
information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of
this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(c) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell
participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion
of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its
Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this
Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other
parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative
Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in
connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement pursuant
to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole
right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any
provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement may provide that such Lender will not,
without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (1)
requires the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby pursuant to the proviso to the second
sentence of Section 10.1 and (2) directly affects such Participant. The Borrower agrees that each
Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.10 and 2.11 (subject to the
requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.11(f) (it being
understood that the documentation required under

 

60

 

Section 2.11(f)
shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by
assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to
be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.10 and 2.11 as if it were an assignee under paragraph
(b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections
2.10 or 2.11, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been
entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results
from an adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application
thereof or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force
of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof
that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. To the extent permitted
by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.7(b) as though it
were a Lender, provided such Participant shall be subject to Section 10.7(a) as though it were a
Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent
of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant
and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or
other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no
Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any
Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s
interest in any Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the
extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan or other
obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury
Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest
error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant
Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any
notice to the contrary.

(d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of
its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or
assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any
such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or
assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or
substitute any such pledgee or Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(e) The Borrower, upon receipt of written notice from the relevant Lender, agrees to issue
Notes to any Lender requiring Notes to facilitate transactions of the type described in paragraph
(d) above.

10.7 Adjustments; Set-off. (a) Except to the extent that this Agreement or a court order expressly provides for
payments to be allocated to a particular Lender, if any Lender (a “Benefitted Lender”)
shall receive any payment of all or part of the Obligations owing to it (other than in connection
with an assignment made pursuant to Section 10.6), or receive any collateral in respect thereof
(whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature
referred to in Section 8(f), or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or
collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of the Obligations owing to such other
Lender, such Benefitted Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating
interest in such portion of the Obligations owing to each such other Lender, or shall provide such
other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, as shall be necessary to cause such
Benefitted Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral ratably with each of
the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment
or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefitted Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded,
and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

 

61

 

(b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall
have the right, without notice to the Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by the
Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any Obligations becoming due and payable
by the Borrower (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), to apply to the
payment of such Obligations, by setoff or otherwise, any and all deposits (general or special, time
or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims,
in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or
unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender, any affiliate thereof or any of their
respective branches or agencies to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower. Each Lender
agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such application made
by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity
of such application.

10.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any
number of separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to
constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement
by email or facsimile transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed
counterpart hereof. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be
lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

10.9 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that 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.

10.10 Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the entire agreement of the Borrower,
the Parent Guarantor, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter
hereof and thereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the
Administrative Agent or any Lender relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or
referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents.

10.11 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE
GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK,
WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES THAT WOULD REQUIRE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF
ANOTHER JURISDICTION.

10.12 Submission To Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each of the Parent Guarantor and the Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

(a) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement
of any judgment in respect thereof, to the exclusive general jurisdiction of any United States
Federal or New York State court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York;

(b) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives any
objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any
such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to
plead or claim the same;

 

62

 

(c) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing
a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage
prepaid, to the Borrower at its address set forth in Section 10.2 or at such other address of which
the Administrative Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto;

(d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any
other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to sue in any other jurisdiction; and

(e) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or
recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this Section any special, exemplary,
punitive or consequential damages.

10.13 Acknowledgements. Each of the Parent Guarantor and the Borrower hereby acknowledges that:

(a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents;

(b) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any fiduciary relationship with or
duty to the Parent Guarantor or the Borrower arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or
any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between Administrative Agent and Lenders, on

NEITHER THIS WARRANT NOR THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT HAVE BEEN REGISTERED
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND SUBJECT TO SECTION
6 BELOW, NO OFFER, SALE, TRANSFER, ASSIGNMENT OR OTHER DISPOSITION MAY BE EFFECTED UNLESS (1) THERE
IS AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER SUCH ACT COVERING THE SECURITIES, (2) THE SALE IS MADE
IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 144 UNDER THE ACT OR (3) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO
COMPANY IS DELIVERED STATING THAT SUCH DISPOSITION IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION
FROM SUCH REGISTRATION (WHICH OPINION MAY BE RENDERED BY IN-HOUSE COUNSEL).

WARRANT TO PURCHASE [___________] SHARES OF COMMON STOCK

Issue Date: [            ]

THIS CERTIFIES THAT, for value received, [_____] (together with its transferees, “Holder”),
is entitled to subscribe for and purchase [_____] [(_____)]shares (the “Warrant
Shares”) of fully paid and nonassessable $0.01 par value per share Common Stock (the “Common
Stock”) of Grubb & Ellis Company, a Delaware corporation (“Company”), at the Warrant Price (as
hereinafter defined), subject to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set
forth. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed in
the Credit Agreement among Grubb & Ellis Management Services, Inc., as Borrower, Grubb & Ellis
Company, as Parent Guarantor, the Several Lenders from time to time parties thereto, and ColFin GNE
Loan Funding, LLC, as Administrative Agent, dated as of April 15, 2011 (as amended, the “Credit
Agreement”).

1. Warrant Price. The “Warrant Price” shall initially be one cent ($0.01) per share,
subject to adjustment as provided in Section 7 below.

2. Conditions to Exercise. Unless this Warrant has previously expired pursuant to the
terms specified herein, the purchase right represented by this Warrant may be exercised, subject to
adjustment as provided in Section 7 below, during the term commencing on the Issue Date and ending
at 5:00 P.M. Pacific time on the third anniversary of the Issue Date of this Warrant (the
“Expiration Date”) only in the following circumstances:

(a) Exercisability Upon Satisfaction of Fundamental Change Condition. Holder may
exercise this Warrant on or before the Expiration Date upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Change
in which the consideration received for each share of Common Stock has a fair market value equal to
or greater than (a) in the event that the Second Amendment Effective Date occurs, the VWAP for the
sixty (60) consecutive calendar day period immediately preceding the Second Amendment Effective
Date, or (b) in the event the Second Amendment Effective Date has not occurred, Seventy-One Cents
($0.71), per share ((a) and (b), the “Trigger Price”); provided that if an Early
Termination Event occurs this Warrant shall terminate and be of no further force and effect; or

 

 

 

(b) Exercisability Upon Satisfaction of VWAP Condition. Holder may exercise this
Warrant on or before the Expiration Date beginning from the first date on which the VWAP for any
thirty (30) consecutive calendar day period following the date hereof is equal to or greater than
the Trigger Price.

(c) Most Favored Nation. The following shall be in effect for so long as any
Obligation is outstanding:

In addition to any adjustments provided in Section 7 hereof, if in connection with any
financing arrangement, the Issuer, its Affiliates or any subsidiary of the Issuer issues any
Options, or other equity linked securities to purchase common stock of the Issuer or any subsidiary
of the Issuer, with an exercise condition that is based on a share price that is lower than the
Trigger Price, then the Trigger Price shall be adjusted downward (but not upward) to such lower
price without any further action on the part of any party.

In addition to any adjustments provided in Section 7 hereof, to the extent that the Issuer,
its Affiliates or any subsidiary of the Issuer issues any equity linked security or arrangement
other than an Option in connection with a financing arrangement, the Trigger Price shall be
equitably adjusted downward as is necessary to provide the Holders the result set forth above.

(d) Limitation on Exercise.

(i) Subject to Section 2(d)(iii), no Holder will be entitled to purchase or otherwise
acquire shares of Common Stock or other securities or instruments, whether or not delivered upon
exercise of this Warrant, to the extent (but only to the extent) such purchase, acquisition, or
receipt would cause such exercising Holder to become, directly or indirectly, a “beneficial owner”
(within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended from time
to time, and any successor statute (the “Exchange Act”) and the rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder) of 10.00% or more of the shares of Common Stock outstanding at such time.

(ii) If at such time, but for the operation of this Section 2(d), a Holder would be deemed to
be the beneficial owner of 10.00% or more of the shares of Common Stock of the Company, any
exercise of this Warrant shall be void and have no effect to the extent (but only to the extent)
that such delivery would result in the exercising Holder (together with such Holder’s affiliates)
becoming the owner (as distinguished from a beneficial owner under Section 13(d) of the Exchange
Act) of more than 4.99% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding at such time. If any delivery of
shares of Common Stock owed to a Holder upon the exercise of this Warrant is not made, in whole or
in part, as a result of this limitation, the Company’s obligation to make such delivery shall not
be extinguished and the Company shall deliver such shares as promptly as practicable after any such
exercising Holder gives notice to the Company that such delivery would not result in such Holder
(together with such Holder’s affiliates) being the owner of more than 4.99% of the shares of Common
Stock outstanding at such time.

(iii) The provisions of Sections 2(d)(ii) shall cease to apply to any Holder that ceases to be
part of a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations
promulgated thereunder) with any person that is not an Affiliate of such Holder. The Holders can
agree in writing to vary the two percentages in Section 2(d)(ii) as long as the sum of the
percentages never exceeds 9.98%.

 

 

 

3. Method of Exercise; Payment; Issuance of Shares; Issuance of New Warrant; Put
Rights. Subject to Section 2 hereof, the Warrant may be exercised, at the option of the
Holder, by any one or combination of the following methods:

(a) Cash Exercise. Subject to Section 2 hereof, the purchase right represented by
this Warrant may be exercised, by Holder, in whole or in part, by the surrender of the original of
this Warrant (together with a duly executed Notice of Exercise in substantially the form attached
hereto) at the principal office of Company (as set forth in Section 20 below) and by providing
payment to Company, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, of an amount equal to the
product of the Warrant Price per share multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares then being
purchased. In the event of any exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, certificates
for the shares of stock so purchased (the “Share Certificates”) shall be in the name of, and
delivered to, Holder, or such other Person as such Holder may direct (subject to the terms of
transfer contained herein and upon payment by such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes). Such
delivery shall be made within 3 Trading Days after the exercise of this Warrant and at Company’s
expense and, unless this Warrant has been fully exercised or expired, a new Warrant having terms
and conditions substantially identical to this Warrant and representing the portion of the Warrant
Shares, if any, with respect to which this Warrant shall not have been exercised, shall also be
issued to Holder within 3 Trading Days after the exercise of this Warrant.

(b) Cashless Exercise. Subject to Section 2 hereof, if the Per Share Market Value of
one share of Common Stock on the date of exercise is greater than the Warrant Price (at the date of
calculation as set forth below), in lieu of exercising this Warrant by payment of cash, Holder may
exercise this Warrant by a cashless exercise by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office
of Company together with the properly endorsed Notice of Exercise in which event Company shall
issue to Holder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula:

	 	 	 	 	 
	 
	 	X =
	 	Y - (A)(Y)
	 

	 	 	 	              B
	 
	 	 	 	 
	Where

	 	X =
	 	the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to Holder.
	 
	 	 	 	 
	 

	 	Y =	 	the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon
exercise of all of the Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being
exercised, the portion of the Warrant being exercised.
	 
	 	 	 	 
	 

	 	A =	 	the Warrant Price.
	 
	 	 	 	 
	 

	 	B =	 	the Per Share Market Value of one share of Common Stock on
the date of exercise.

In the event of any exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, the Share Certificates
shall be in the name of, and delivered to, Holder, or such other Person as such Holder may direct
(subject to the terms of transfer contained herein and upon payment by such Holder of any
applicable transfer taxes). Such delivery shall be made within 3 Trading Days after the exercise
of this Warrant and at Company’s expense and, unless this Warrant has been fully exercised or
expired, a new Warrant having terms and conditions substantially identical to this Warrant and
representing the portion of the Warrant Shares, if any, with respect to which this Warrant shall
not have been exercised, shall also be issued to Holder within 3 Trading Days after the exercise of
this Warrant.

 

 

 

(c) Loan Reduction Exercise. Subject to Section 2 hereof, the purchase right
represented by this Warrant may be exercised, by Holder, in whole or in part, by the surrender of
the original of this Warrant (together with a duly executed Notice of Exercise in substantially the
form attached hereto) at the principal office of Company and by delivering to Company an executed
amendment to the Credit Agreement, reducing the principal amount owed by an amount equal to the
product of the Warrant Price per share multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares then being
purchased. In the event of any exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, Share
Certificates shall be in the name of, and delivered to, Holder, or such other Person as such Holder
may direct (subject to the terms of transfer contained herein and upon payment by such Holder of
any applicable transfer taxes). Such delivery shall be made within 3 Trading Days after the
exercise of this Warrant and at Company’s expense and, unless this Warrant has been fully exercised
or expired, a new Warrant having terms and conditions substantially identical to this Warrant and
representing the portion of the Warrant Shares, if any, with respect to which this Warrant shall
not have been exercised, shall also be issued to Holder within 3 Trading Days after the exercise of
this Warrant.

4. Representations and Warranties of Holder and Company.

(a) Representations and Warranties by Holder. Holder represents and warrants to
Company with respect to this purchase as follows:

(i) Authorization. All company action on the part of Holder, its officers, directors,
shareholders, members or partners, as applicable, necessary for the authorization, execution,
delivery and performance of its obligations under this Warrant has been taken and this Warrant
constitutes the legally binding and valid obligation of Holder enforceable in accordance with its
terms.

(ii) Evaluation. Holder has substantial experience in evaluating and investing in
private placement transactions of securities of companies similar to Company so that Holder is
capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in Company and has the capacity to
protect its interests.

(iii) Resale. Holder is acquiring this Warrant and the Warrant Shares issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant (collectively the “Securities”) for investment for its own account, not as
a nominee or agent, and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution
thereof. Holder understands that the Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions
of the Act which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent as
expressed herein and the other representations and warranties of Holder contained herein.

(iv) Rule 144. Holder acknowledges that the Securities must be held indefinitely
unless subsequently registered under the Act or an exemption from such registration is available.
Holder is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Act which permit limited resale
of shares purchased in a private placement subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions.

(v) Accredited Investor. Holder is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of
Regulation D promulgated under the Act.

 

 

 

(vi) Opportunity To Discuss. Holder has read, understood, and is familiar with
Company’s public filings available at the Securities and Exchange Commission’s website and has had
an opportunity to discuss Company’s business, management and financial
affairs with its management and an opportunity to review Company’s facilities. Holder
understands that such discussions, as well as the written information issued by Company, were
intended to describe the aspects of Company’s business and prospects which Company believes to be
material but were not necessarily a thorough or exhaustive description.

(b) Representations and Warranties by Company. Company hereby represents and
warrants to Holder as follows: 

(i) Corporate Organization and Authority. Company (a) is a corporation duly
organized, validly existing, and in good standing in its jurisdiction of incorporation and (b) has
the corporate power and authority to own and operate its properties and to carry on its business as
now conducted. Company is qualified as a foreign corporation in all jurisdictions where such
qualification is required except in each jurisdiction in which failure to so qualify would not have
a material adverse effect on the business, operations, assets, liabilities, results of operations
or financial condition of Company.

(ii) Corporate Power. Company has all requisite legal and corporate power and
authority to execute, issue and deliver this Warrant, to issue the Warrant Shares issuable upon
exercise or conversion of this Warrant, and to carry out and perform its obligations under this
Warrant and any related agreements.

(iii) Authorization; Enforceability. All corporate action on the part of Company, its
officers, directors and shareholders necessary for the authorization, execution, delivery and
performance of its obligations under this Warrant and for the authorization, issuance and delivery
of this Warrant and the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant has been taken and
this Warrant constitutes the legally binding and valid obligation of Company enforceable in
accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, or similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’
rights, or to principles of equity.

(iv) Valid Issuance of Warrant and Warrant Shares. This Warrant has been validly
issued and is free of restrictions on transfer other than restrictions on transfer set forth herein
and under applicable state and federal securities laws. The Warrant Shares issuable upon conversion
of this Warrant, when issued, sold and delivered in accordance with the terms of this Warrant for
the consideration expressed herein, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable,
and will be free of restrictions on transfer other than restrictions on transfer set forth herein
and under applicable state and federal securities laws. Subject to applicable restrictions on
transfer, the issuance and delivery of this Warrant and the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise
or conversion of this Warrant are not subject to any preemptive or other similar rights or any
liens or encumbrances except as specifically set forth in Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or
this Warrant or except as created by Holder. Subject to the accuracy of Holder’s representations
and warranties contained in Section 4(a), the offer, sale and issuance of the Warrant Shares, as
contemplated by this Warrant, are exempt from the prospectus and registration requirements of
applicable United States federal and state securities laws, and neither Company nor any authorized
agent acting on its behalf has or will take any action hereafter that would cause the loss of such
exemption.

(v) No Conflict. The execution, delivery, and performance of this Warrant will not
result in (a) any violation of, conflict with, or constitute a default under, with or without the
passage of time or the giving of notice (1) any provision of Company’s Certificate of Incorporation
or by-laws; (2) any provision of any material judgment, decree, or order to which Company is a
party, by which it is bound, or to which any of its material assets are subject; (3)
any material contract, obligation, or commitment to which Company is a party or by which it is
bound; or (4) any material statute, rule, or governmental regulation applicable to Company, or (b)
the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any material assets of Company.

 

 

 

(vi) Capitalization. The capitalization table of Company attached hereto as Annex A
is complete and accurate as of [_____] and reflects (a) all outstanding capital stock of
Company and (b) all outstanding warrants, options, conversion privileges, preemptive rights or
other rights or agreements to purchase or otherwise acquire or issue any equity securities or
convertible securities of Company. Company has authorized the issuance of a total of 20,000,000
shares of Preferred Stock, 1,000,000 of which have been designated as Series A Preferred Stock, and
200,000,000 shares of Common Stock and no other shares of preferred stock have been designated or
issued.

5. Legends.

(a) Legend. Each certificate representing the Warrant Shares shall be endorsed with
substantially the following legend:

THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS
AMENDED, OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, TRANSFERRED,
ASSIGNED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF UNLESS (1) THERE IS AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION
STATEMENT UNDER SUCH ACT COVERING THE SECURITIES, (2) THE SALE IS MADE IN ACCORDANCE
WITH RULE 144 UNDER THE ACT OR (3) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO
COMPANY IS DELIVERED STATING THAT SUCH DISPOSITION IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH AN
AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM SUCH REGISTRATION (WHICH OPINION MAY BE RENDERED BY
IN-HOUSE COUNSEL).

Company need not enter into its stock records a transfer of Warrant Shares unless the
conditions specified in the foregoing legend are satisfied. Company may also instruct its
transfer agent not to allow the transfer of any of the Warrant Shares unless the conditions
specified in the foregoing legend are satisfied.

(b) Removal of Legend and Transfer Restrictions. The legend relating to the Act
endorsed on a certificate pursuant to paragraph 5(a) of this Warrant shall be removed and Company
shall issue a certificate without such legend to Holder if (i) the Securities are registered under
the Act and a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Act is available, or (ii)
Company has received an opinion of counsel (which may include the opinion of in-house counsel)
reasonably satisfactory to Company to the effect that public sale, transfer or assignment of the
Securities may be made without registration and without compliance with any restriction.

6. Conditions to Transfer or Exercise of Warrant. Subject to the further provisions
of this Section 6, this Warrant and the Warrant Shares represented hereby may be sold, transferred,
conveyed or assigned by Holder. This Warrant may not be transferred to any person who is not an
“accredited investor,” as such term is defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Act. It shall
be a condition to any transfer or exercise of this Warrant that at the time of such transfer or
exercise, Holder shall provide Company with a representation in writing that Holder or transferee
is acquiring this Warrant and the shares of Common Stock to be issued upon exercise for
investment purposes only, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to any sale or
distribution. As further condition to each transfer, at the request of Company, Holder shall
surrender this Warrant to Company and the transferee shall receive and accept a Warrant, of like
terms, tenor and date, executed by Company.

 

 

 

7. Adjustment for Certain Events.

(a) Adjustment Exceptions. The number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 7 (in
each case, after taking into consideration any prior adjustments pursuant to this Section 7);
provided that this Section 7 will not apply to: (i) the issuance of any Additional
Warrants; (ii) the issuance of any Common Stock upon the exercise of the Closing Date Warrants, the
Second Amendment Effective Date Warrants or any Additional Warrants; (iii) the issuance of Common
Stock upon conversion of the Company’s existing outstanding 12% cumulative participating perpetual
convertible preferred stock upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Certificate of the
Powers, Designations, Preferences and Rights of the 12% Cumulative Participating Perpetual
Convertible Preferred Stock as such conversion terms thereof are in effect as of April 15, 2011;
(iv) the issuance of Common Stock upon conversion of the Company’s existing outstanding 7.95%
convertible senior securities due 2015, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the
Indenture for the 7.95% Convertible Senior Securities due 2015 as such conversion terms thereof are
in effect as of April 15, 2011; and (v) the issuance of Common Stock as equity compensation to
employees, officers, directors and independent contractor brokers (in each case including as
inducements to new hires or appointees) (collectively the “Equity Compensation Grants”), provided
that this exception to the adjustment provisions of this Section 7 is limited to the following
Equity Compensation Grants: (A) the issuance of any shares of common stock pursuant to any
outstanding (as of April 15, 2011) options, restricted stock awards, stock appreciation rights,
phantom stock rights or other equity grants (the “Existing Equity Compensation”), and (B) the
issuance of an additional 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock in the form of options, restricted stock
awards, stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights or other equity grants (the “Additional
Equity Compensation”) and the issuance of the Common Stock underlying such Additional Equity
Compensation plus any Additional Equity Compensation and any Existing Equity Compensation that is
forfeited, expired or terminated provided that any amount issued in excess of the above will result
in any requisite adjustment under this Section 7.

(b) Adjustment to Number of Warrant Shares Upon Issuance of Common Stock. Except in
the case of an event described in either Section 7(d) or Section 7(e), if Company shall, at any
time or from time to time after the Issue Date, issue or sell, or in accordance with Section 7(c)
is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock without consideration or for
consideration per share less than either: (i) the Per Share Market Value or (ii) the Trigger
Price, as such amounts are proportionately adjusted for stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock
combinations, stock dividends and other distributions and recapitalizations affecting the Common
Stock after the Issue Date (collectively the “Original Prices” and the greater of (i) or (ii) the
“Original Adjustment Price”), then immediately upon such issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or
sale), the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to any
such issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or sale) shall be increased to a number of Warrant Shares
equal to the product obtained by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant immediately prior to such issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or sale) by a fraction
(which shall in no event be less than one):

(i) the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding
immediately after such issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or sale); and

 

 

 

(ii) the denominator of which shall be the sum of (A) the number of shares of Common Stock
then outstanding immediately prior to such issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or sale) plus (B)
the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate amount of consideration, if any,
received by Company upon such issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or sale) would purchase at the
Original Adjustment Price.

(c) Effect of Certain Events on Adjustment to Number of Warrant Shares. For purposes
of determining the adjusted number of Warrant Shares under Section 7(b) hereof, the following shall
be applicable:

(i) Issuance of Options. If Company shall, at any time or from time to time after the
Issue Date, in any manner grant or sell (whether directly or by assumption in a merger or
otherwise) any Options, whether or not such Options or the right to convert or exchange any
Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options are immediately exercisable, and
the price per share (determined as provided in this paragraph and in Section 7(c)(v)) for which
Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon the conversion or exchange of
Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options is less than either of the
Original Prices in effect immediately prior to the time of the granting or sale of such Options,
then the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Options
or upon conversion or exchange of the total maximum amount of Convertible Securities issuable upon
the exercise of such Options shall be deemed to have been issued as of the date of granting or sale
of such Options (and thereafter shall be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of adjusting the
number of Warrant Shares under Section 7(b)), at a price per share equal to the quotient obtained
by dividing (A) the sum (which sum shall constitute the applicable consideration received for
purposes of Section 7(b)) of (x) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by Company as
consideration for the granting or sale of all such Options, plus (y) the minimum aggregate amount
of additional consideration payable to Company upon the exercise of all such Options, plus (z), in
the case of such Options which relate to Convertible Securities, the minimum aggregate amount of
additional consideration, if any, payable to Company upon the issuance or sale of all such
Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities, by (B)
the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of all such Options
or upon the conversion or exchange of all Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of all
such Options. Except as otherwise provided in Section 7(c)(iii), no further adjustment of the
number of Warrant Shares shall be made upon the actual issuance of Common Stock or of Convertible
Securities upon exercise of such Options or upon the actual issuance of Common Stock upon
conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of such Options.

(ii) Issuance of Convertible Securities. If Company shall, at any time or from time
to time after the Issue Date, in any manner grant or sell (whether directly or by assumption in a
merger or otherwise) any Convertible Securities, whether or not the right to convert or exchange
any such Convertible Securities is immediately exercisable, and the price per share (determined as
provided in this paragraph and in Section 7(c)(v)) for which Common Stock is issuable upon the
conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities is less than either of the Original Prices in
effect immediately prior to the time of the granting or sale of such Convertible Securities, then
the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exchange of the
total maximum amount of such Convertible Securities shall be deemed to have been issued as of the
date of granting or sale of such Convertible Securities (and thereafter shall be deemed to be
outstanding for purposes of adjusting the number of Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 7(b)), at a
price per share equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the sum (which sum shall constitute
the applicable consideration received for purposes of Section 7(b)) of (x) the total amount, if
any, received or receivable by Company as

 

 

 

consideration for the granting or sale of such Convertible Securities, plus (y) the minimum
aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to Company upon the conversion or
exchange of all such Convertible Securities, by (B) the total maximum number of shares of Common
Stock issuable upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities. Except as
otherwise provided in Section 7(c)(iii), (A) no further adjustment of the number of Warrant Shares
shall be made upon the actual issuance of Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of such
Convertible Securities and (B) no further adjustment of the number of Warrant Shares shall be made
by reason of the issue or sale of Convertible Securities upon exercise of any Options to purchase
any such Convertible Securities for which adjustments of the number of Warrant Shares have been
made pursuant to the other provisions of this Section 7(c).

(iii) Change in Terms of Options or Convertible Securities. Upon any change in any of
(A) the total amount received or receivable by Company as consideration for the granting or sale of
any Options or Convertible Securities referred to in Section 7(c)(i) or Section 7(c)(ii) hereof,
(B) the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to Company upon the
exercise of any Options or upon the issuance, conversion or exchange of any Convertible Securities
referred to in Section 7(c)(i) or Section 7(c)(ii) hereof, (C) the rate at which Convertible
Securities referred to in Section 7(c)(i) or Section 7(c)(ii) hereof are convertible into or
exchangeable for Common Stock, or (D) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable in
connection with any Options referred to in Section 7(c)(i) hereof or any Convertible Securities
referred to in Section 7(c)(ii) hereof, then (whether or not the original issuance or sale of such
Options or Convertible Securities resulted in an adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares
pursuant to this Section 7) the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant at
the time of such change shall be adjusted or readjusted, as applicable, to the number of Warrant
Shares which would have been in effect at such time pursuant to the provisions of this Section 7
had such Options or Convertible Securities still outstanding provided for such changed
consideration, conversion rate or maximum number of shares, as the case may be, at the time
initially granted, issued or sold, but only if as a result of such adjustment or readjustment, the
number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant is increased.

(iv) Treatment of Expired or Terminated Options or Convertible Securities. Upon the
expiration or termination of any unexercised Option (or portion thereof) or any unconverted or
unexchanged Convertible Security (or portion thereof) for which any adjustment (either upon its
original issuance or upon a revision of its terms) was made pursuant to this Section 7 (including
without limitation upon the redemption or purchase for consideration of all or any portion of such
Option or Convertible Security by Company), the number of Warrant Shares then issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant shall forthwith be changed pursuant to the provisions of this Section 7 to
the number of Warrant Shares which would have been in effect at the time of such expiration or
termination had such unexercised Option (or portion thereof) or unconverted or unexchanged
Convertible Security (or portion thereof), to the extent outstanding immediately prior to such
expiration or termination, never been issued, provided that this Section 7(c)(iv) will not apply to
the extent the Warrant is exercised.

(v) Calculation of Consideration Received. If Company shall, at any time or from time
to time after the Issue Date, issue or sell, or is deemed to have issued or sold in accordance with
Section 7(c), any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities: (A) for cash, the
consideration received therefor shall be deemed to be the net amount received by Company therefor;
(B) for consideration other than cash, the amount of the consideration other than cash received by
Company shall be the fair value of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of
marketable securities, in which case the amount of

 

 

 

consideration received by Company shall be the
Per Share Market Value for such securities as of the end of business on the date of receipt of such securities; (C) for no specifically allocated
consideration in connection with an issuance or sale of other securities of Company, together
comprising one integrated transaction, the amount of the consideration therefor shall be deemed to
be the fair value of such portion of the aggregate consideration received by Company in such
transaction as is attributable to such shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities,
as the case may be, issued in such transaction; or (D) to the owners of the non-surviving entity in
connection with any merger in which Company is the surviving corporation, the amount of
consideration therefor shall be deemed to be the fair value of such portion of the net assets and
business of the non-surviving entity as is attributable to such shares of Common Stock, Options or
Convertible Securities, as the case may be, issued to such owners. The net amount of any cash
consideration shall be the dollar amount thereof and the fair value of any consideration other than
cash or marketable securities shall be determined by an Independent Appraiser.

(vi) Record Date. For purposes of any adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares in
accordance with this Section 7, in case Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common
Stock for the purpose of entitling them (A) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in
Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities or (B) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock,
Options or Convertible Securities, then such record date shall be deemed to be the date of the
issue or sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration
of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right
of subscription or purchase, as the case may be, provided such distribution is actually made.

(vii) Treasury Shares. The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any given
time shall not include shares owned or held by or for the account of Company or any of its
wholly-owned subsidiaries, and the disposition of any such shares (other than the cancellation or
retirement thereof or the transfer of such shares among Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries)
shall be considered an issue or sale of Common Stock for the purpose of this Section 7.

(viii) Other Dividends and Distributions. Subject to the provisions of this Section
7(c), if Company shall, at any time or from time to time after the Issue Date, make or declare, or
fix a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend
or any other distribution payable in securities of Company (other than a dividend or distribution
of shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities in respect of outstanding shares of
Common Stock), cash or other property, then, and in each such event, provision shall be made so
that the Holder shall receive upon exercise of the Warrant, in addition to the number of Warrant
Shares receivable thereupon, the kind and amount of securities of Company, cash or other property
which the Holder would have been entitled to receive had the Warrant been exercised in full into
Warrant Shares on the date of such event and had the Holder thereafter, during the period from the
date of such event to and including the Exercise Date (as hereinafter defined), retained such
securities, cash or other property receivable by them as aforesaid during such period, giving
application to all adjustments called for during such period under this Section 7 with respect to
the rights of the Holder; provided, that no such provision shall be made if the Holder receives,
simultaneously with the distribution to the holders of Common Stock, a dividend or other
distribution of such securities, cash or other property in an amount equal to the amount of such
securities, cash or other property as the Holder would have received if the Warrant had been
exercised in full into Warrant Shares on the date of such event.

 

 

 

(d) Adjustment to Number of Warrant Shares Upon Dividend, Subdivision or Combination of
Common Stock. If Company shall, at any time or from time to time after the Issue Date, (i) pay
a dividend or make any other distribution upon the Common Stock or any
other capital stock of Company payable in shares of Common Stock or in Options or Convertible
Securities, or (ii) subdivide (by any stock split, recapitalization or otherwise) its outstanding
shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to any such dividend, distribution or subdivision shall
be proportionately increased. If Company at any time combines (by combination, reverse stock split
or otherwise) its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the number of
Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such combination shall
be proportionately decreased. Any adjustment under this Section 7(d) shall become effective at the
close of business on the date the dividend, subdivision or combination becomes effective.

(e) Adjustment to Number of Warrant Shares Upon Reorganization, Reclassification,
Consolidation or Merger. Subject to Section 2(a), in the event of any (i) capital
reorganization of Company, (ii) reclassification of the stock of Company (other than a change in
par value or from par value to no par value or from no par value to par value or as a result of a
stock dividend or subdivision, split-up or combination of shares), (iii) consolidation or merger of
Company with or into another Person, (iv) sale of all or substantially all of Company’s assets to
another Person, (v) transaction constituting a Fundamental Change or (v) other similar transaction
(other than any such transaction covered by Section 7(d)), in each case which entitles the holders
of Common Stock to receive (either directly or upon subsequent liquidation) stock, securities or
assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock, each Warrant shall, immediately after such
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or similar transaction, remain
outstanding and shall thereafter, in lieu of or in addition to (as the case may be) the number of
Warrant Shares then exercisable under this Warrant, be exercisable for the kind and number of
shares of stock or other securities or assets of Company or of the successor Person resulting from
such transaction to which the Holder would have been entitled upon such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or similar transaction if the Holder had exercised
this Warrant in full immediately prior to the time of such reorganization, reclassification,
consolidation, merger, sale or similar transaction and acquired the applicable number of Warrant
Shares then issuable hereunder as a result of such exercise (without taking into account any
limitations or restrictions on the exercisability of this Warrant); and, in such case, appropriate
adjustment (in form and substance satisfactory to the Holder) shall be made with respect to the
Holder’s rights under this Warrant to insure that the provisions of this Section 7 hereof shall
thereafter be applicable, as nearly as possible, to this Warrant in relation to any shares of
stock, securities or assets thereafter acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant. In the event of a
Fundamental Change, following which the Warrants would cease to represent the right to acquire
securities, no adjustment shall be made pursuant to the terms hereof. The provisions of this
Section 7(e) shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications,
consolidations, mergers, sales or similar transactions. Company shall not effect any such
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or similar transaction unless, prior
to the consummation thereof, the successor Person (if other than Company) resulting from such
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or similar transaction, shall assume,
by written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant and satisfactory
to the Holder, the obligation to deliver to the Holder such shares of stock, securities or assets
which, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such Holder shall be entitled to receive upon
exercise of this Warrant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Warrant
is exercisable in accordance with Section 2 hereof with respect to any corporate event or other
transaction contemplated by the provisions of this Section 7(e), the Holder shall have the right to
elect prior to the consummation of such event or transaction, to give effect to the exercise rights
contained in Section 3 instead of giving effect to the provisions contained in this Section 7(e)
with respect to this Warrant.

 

 

 

(f) Certain Events. If any event of the type contemplated by the provisions of this
Section 7 but not expressly provided for by such provisions (including, without limitation, the
granting of stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features)
occurs, then the Board shall make an appropriate adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant so as to protect the rights of the Holder in a manner
consistent with the provisions of this Section 7; provided, that no such adjustment pursuant to
this Section 7(f) shall decrease the number of Warrant Shares issuable as otherwise determined
pursuant to this Section 7.

8. Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the kind or number of securities issuable under
this Warrant shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 7 hereof, Company shall prepare a certificate
signed by an officer of Company setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the
adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was calculated, and
number or kind of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant after giving effect to such
adjustment, and shall cause copies of such certificate to be mailed (by certified or registered
mail, return receipt required, postage prepaid) within thirty (30) days of such adjustment to
Holder as set forth in Section 20 hereof.

9. Financial and Other Reports. From time to time up to the earlier of the Expiration
Date or the complete exercise of this Warrant, Company shall furnish to Holder, if Company is a
private company, (a) unaudited consolidated and, if available, consolidating balance sheets,
statements of operations and cash flow statements within 30 days of each fiscal month of each
fiscal year, certified by Company’s president or chief financial officer, and (b) Company’s
complete annual audited consolidated and, if available, consolidating balance sheets, statements of
operations and cash flow statements certified by an independent certified public accountant
selected by Company within 120 days of the fiscal year end or, if sooner, promptly following such
time as Company’s Board of Directors receives the audit. If Company is a publicly held company, it
shall deliver to Holder quarterly unaudited consolidated and, if available, consolidating balance
sheets, statements of operations and cash flow statements and annual audited consolidated and, if
available, consolidating balance sheets, statements of operations and cash flow statements,
certified by a recognized firm of certified public accountants, within 5 days after the statements
are required to be provided to the SEC. All such statements are to be prepared using GAAP and, if
Company is a publicly held company, are to be in compliance with SEC requirements. At the time of
Company’s delivery of quarterly financial statements in accordance with this Section 9, Company
shall also deliver to Holder an updated capitalization table of Company in the form attached hereto
as Annex A. For so long as Company is a privately held company, Holder agrees to hold in
confidence and trust and not to improperly use or disclose any information provided to or learned
by Holder in connection with its rights under this Section 9 regarding the business as conducted by
Company as of today’s date on the same terms and conditions as set forth in Section 11.8 of the
Credit Agreement.

10. Transferability of Warrant. This Warrant is transferable on the books of Company
at its principal office by the registered Holder upon surrender of this Warrant properly endorsed,
subject to compliance with Section 6 and applicable federal and state securities laws. Company
shall issue and deliver to the transferee a new Warrant representing the Warrant so transferred.
Upon any partial transfer, Company will issue and deliver to Holder a new Warrant with respect to
the Warrant not so transferred. Holder shall not have any right to transfer any portion of this
Warrant to any direct competitor of Company or to any significant shareholder or any direct or
indirect subsidiary of any such direct competitor of the Company which is known or should be known
as such to the Holder.

 

 

 

11. Registration Rights. Company grants registration rights to Holder of this Warrant
for any Common Stock of Company obtained by Holder upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant,
pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement dated as of April 15, 2011 between Grubb & Ellis
Company CDCF II GNE Holding, LLC and CFI GNE Warrant Investor, LLC (as the same may be amended,
supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, including, without limitation, by the
Amendment thereto dated as of October 16, 2011) and subject to pro rata limitations on the number
of securities which can be included in a registration among other persons who have the right to
register securities pursuant to “piggyback” rights afforded to such persons.

12. No Fractional Shares. No fractional share of Common Stock will be issued in
connection with any exercise or conversion hereunder, but in lieu of such fractional share Company
shall make a cash payment therefor upon the basis of the Warrant Price then in effect.

13. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock
upon the exercise or conversion of this Warrant shall be made without charge to Holder for any
United States or state of the United States documentary stamp tax or other incidental expense with
respect to the issuance of such certificate, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by
Company, and such certificates shall be issued in the name of Holder.

14. No Shareholder Rights Until Exercise; Additional Rights. Except as expressly
provided herein, this Warrant does not entitle Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a
shareholder of Company prior to the exercise hereof. Company agrees that if it shall at any time
in any manner grant to or confer upon any other holder of a warrant any right or benefit that has
the effect of establishing rights or otherwise benefiting the holder of any such warrant, in their
capacity as holder of such warrant, in a manner more favorable than the rights and benefits
established in favor of the Holder (“Additional Rights”) then, in each case, the Holder shall
automatically and without further action on behalf of Holder or Company receive substantially the
same rights and benefits as the Additional Rights afforded to such other holder of a warrant.

15. Registry of Warrant. Company shall maintain a registry showing the name and
address of the registered Holder of this Warrant. This Warrant may be surrendered for exchange or
exercise, in accordance with its terms, at such office or agency of Company, and Company and Holder
shall be entitled to rely in all respects, prior to written notice to the contrary, upon such
registry.

16. Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. Upon receipt by Company of
evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this
Warrant, and, in the case of loss, theft, or destruction, of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to
it, and, if mutilated, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, Company will execute and
deliver a new Warrant, having terms and conditions substantially identical to this Warrant, in lieu
hereof.

17. Definitions. For purposes of this Warrant, the following terms have the following
meanings:

“Affiliate” of any specified Person means any other Person directly or indirectly
controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with such specified Person.
For the purposes of this definition, “control” when used with respect to any specified Person means

AMENDMENT TO WARRANTS TO PURCHASE

SHARES OF COMMON STOCK

OF

GRUBB & ELLIS COMPANY.

AMENDMENT (this “Amendment”), dated October 16, 2011, to the Warrants to Purchase
Shares of Common Stock of Grubb & Ellis Company, dated: April 15, 2011; April 30, 2011; May 31,
2011; June 30, 2011; July 31, 2011; August 31, 2011; and September 30, 2011 (the
“Warrants”), issued by Grubb & Ellis Company, a Delaware corporation (together with its
successors and assigns, the “Issuer”), to CFI GNE Warrant Investor, LLC, (“CFI”)

WHEREAS, the Issuer issued the Warrants pursuant to a Credit Agreement, dated April 15, 2011
(as amended, the “Credit Agreement”), among the Issuer, a subsidiary of the Issuer as
borrower, several lenders, and ColFin GNE Loan Funding, LLC, as administrative agent;

WHEREAS, Issuer and CFI desire to amend the Warrants as set forth below

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants contained in this
Amendment, the undersigned hereby agree as follows:

1. Defined Terms; Interpretation; Etc. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this
Amendment shall have the meanings given to them in the Warrants.

2. Exclusion of Application of Anti-Dilution Provisions and Most Favored Nation Provision
to Second Amendment Effective Date Warrants. The parties hereto expressly agree and
acknowledge that, notwithstanding anything set forth in the Warrants to the contrary, (i) the
provisions of Section 7 of the Warrants shall not apply to the issuance of the Second Amendment
Effective Date Warrants (as defined in the Credit Agreement) or the issuance of any Common Stock
upon the exercise of the Second Amendment Effective Date Warrants, and (ii) the provisions of
Section 2(c) of the Warrants, including but not limited to the downward adjustment of the Trigger
Price of such Warrants, shall not apply to the issuance of the Second Amendment Effective Date
Warrants.

 

 

 

3. Amendments to the Warrants.

(a) Effective as of the date hereof, each Warrant is hereby amended by adding a new clause (d)
in Section 2 to read as follows:

(d) “Limitation on Exercise.

(i) Subject to Section 2(d)(iii), no Holder will be entitled to purchase or otherwise
acquire shares of Common Stock or other securities or instruments,
whether or not delivered upon exercise of this Warrant, to the extent (but only to the extent)
such purchase, acquisition, or receipt would cause such exercising Holder to become, directly or
indirectly, a “beneficial owner” (within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended from time to time, and any successor statute (the “Exchange Act”) and the
rules and regulations promulgated thereunder) of 10.00% or more of the shares of Common Stock
outstanding at such time.

(ii) If at such time, but for the operation of this Section 2(d), a Holder would be deemed to
be the beneficial owner of 10.00% or more of the shares of Common Stock of the Company, any
exercise of this Warrant shall be void and have no effect to the extent (but only to the extent)
that such delivery would result in the exercising Holder (together with such Holder’s affiliates)
becoming the owner (as distinguished from a beneficial owner under Section 13(d) of the Exchange
Act) of more than 4.99% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding at such time. If any delivery of
shares of Common Stock owed to a Holder upon the exercise of this Warrant is not made, in whole or
in part, as a result of this limitation, the Company’s obligation to make such delivery shall not
be extinguished and the Company shall deliver such shares as promptly as practicable after any such
exercising Holder gives notice to the Company that such delivery would not result in such Holder
(together with such Holder’s affiliates) being the owner of more than 4.99% of the shares of Common
Stock outstanding at such time.

(iii) The provisions of Sections 2(d)(ii) shall cease to apply to any Holder that ceases to be
part of a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d) or the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations
promulgated thereunder) with any person that is not an Affiliate of such Holder. The Holders can
agree in writing to vary the two percentages in Section 2(d)(ii) as long as the sum of the
percentages never exceeds 9.98%.”

(b) Effective as of the date hereof, the Closing Date Warrants issued to CFI is hereby amended
as follows:

Section 3(c) of the Closing Date Warrants is hereby amended by deleting the reference to
“(the “Credit Agreement”)” and replacing it with “ (as amended, restated, modified or
supplemented from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”)”

4. Amendment and Waiver. Except as expressly set forth herein, this Amendment shall
not alter, modify, amend or in any way affect any of the terms, obligations, covenants or
agreements contained in the Warrant, all of which are ratified and affirmed in all respects and
shall continue in full force and effect. This Amendment shall apply and be effective only
following the Effective Date and only with respect to the provisions of the Warrant specifically
referred to herein. After the Effective Date, any reference in any document to the Warrant shall
mean the Warrant as amended by this Amendment, and this Amendment and the Warrant shall be read
together and construed as a single instrument, and in the event and to the extent that there is any
inconsistency between any of the terms and conditions of this Amendment and the Warrant, the terms
and conditions of this Amendment shall govern.

 

2

 

5. Governing Law. This Amendment shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of
the State of New York, without giving effect to the conflicts of laws principals thereof that would
require the application of another state’s laws.

6. Modification and Severability. If, in any action before any court or agency legally empowered to enforce any provision
contained herein, any provision hereof is found to be unenforceable, then such provision shall be
deemed modified to the extent necessary to make it enforceable by such court or agency. If any such
provision is not enforceable as set forth in the preceding sentence, the unenforceability of such
provision shall not affect the other provisions of this Amendment, but this Amendment shall be
construed as if such unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

7. Headings. The headings of the Sections of this Amendment are for convenience of reference only and
shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Amendment.
