investment or income thereon. Neither the U.S. Borrower nor any other Loan Party or Person
claiming on behalf of or through the U.S. Borrower or any other Loan Party shall have any right to
demand payment of any funds held in any Cash Collateral Account at any time prior to the
termination of all outstanding Letters of Credit and the payment in full of all then outstanding
and payable monetary Obligations. Except following notice from the Administrative Agent to the

cause any funds on deposit in a Cash Collateral Account to be paid at the written direction of the
U.S. Borrower.

          Section 4.3 Changes in Locations, Name, Etc.

          (a) Except upon 15 days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and delivery to the

          (e) In the case of each Grantor that is an issuer of Pledged Collateral, such Grantor agrees
to be bound by the terms of this Agreement relating to the Pledged Collateral issued by it and
shall comply with such terms insofar as such terms are applicable to it. In the case of each
Grantor that is a partner in a Partnership, such Grantor hereby consents to the extent required by
the applicable Partnership Agreement to the pledge by each other Grantor, pursuant to the terms
hereof, of the Pledged Partnership Interests in such Partnership and to the transfer of such
Pledged Partnership Interests to the Administrative Agent or its nominee and to the substitution of
the Administrative Agent or its nominee as a substituted partner in such Partnership with all the

case of each Grantor member of an LLC, such Grantor hereby consents to the extent required by the
applicable LLC Agreement to the pledge by each other Grantor, pursuant to the terms hereof, of the
Pledged LLC Interests in such LLC and to the transfer of such Pledged LLC Interests to the
Administrative Agent or its nominee and to the substitution of the Administrative Agent or its
nominee as a substituted member of the LLC with all the rights, powers and duties of a member of
the LLC in question.

that in any way adversely affects the perfection of the security interests of the Administrative
Agent in the Pledged Partnership Interests or Pledged LLC Interests pledged by such Grantor
hereunder, including any amendment electing to treat the membership interests or partnership
interest of such Grantor as a security under Section 8-103 of the UCC.

aggregate balance in all such accounts does not exceed $5,000,000.

          (b) Such Grantor shall instruct each Account Debtor or other Person obligated to make a
payment to such Grantor under a General Intangible to make payment, or to continue to make payment,
as the case may be, to an Approved Deposit Account and shall deposit in an Approved Deposit Account
all Proceeds of such Accounts and General Intangibles received by such Grantor from any other
Person immediately upon receipt.

          (c) In the event (i) such Grantor or any Approved Securities Intermediary or Deposit Account
Bank shall, after the date hereof, terminate an agreement with respect to the maintenance of a
Control Account or Approved Deposit Account for any reason, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall
demand such termination as a result of the failure of an Approved Securities Intermediary or
Deposit Account Bank to comply with the terms of the applicable Control Account Agreement or
Deposit Account Control Agreement, or (iii) the Administrative Agent determines in its sole
discretion that the financial condition of an Approved Securities
Intermediary or Deposit Account Bank, as the case may be, has materially deteriorated, such
Grantor agrees to notify all of its obligors that were making payments to such terminated Control

15

 

Account or Approved Deposit Account, as the case may be, to make all future payments to another
Control Account or Approved Deposit Account, as the case may be.

          Section 4.6 Accounts

          (a) Such Grantor shall not, other than in the ordinary course of business consistent with its
past practice, (i) grant any extension of the time of payment of any Account, (ii) compromise or
settle any Account for less than the full amount thereof, (iii) release, wholly or partially, any
Person liable for the payment of any Account, (iv) allow any credit or discount on any Account or

thereof.

          (b) The Administrative Agent shall have the right to make test verifications of the Accounts
in any manner and through any medium that it reasonably considers advisable, and such Grantor shall
furnish all such assistance and information as the Administrative Agent may reasonably require in
connection therewith. At any time and from time to time, upon the Administrative Agent’s
reasonable request and at the expense of the relevant Grantor, such Grantor shall cause independent
public accountants or others satisfactory to the Administrative Agent to furnish to the
Administrative Agent reports showing reconciliations, aging and test verifications of, and trial
balances for, the Accounts; provided, however, that unless a Default or Event of Default shall be
continuing, the Administrative Agent shall request no more than four such reports during any
calendar year.

          Section 4.7 Delivery of Instruments and Chattel Paper

          If any amount in excess of €5,000,000 or the U.S. Dollar equivalent thereof payable under or
in connection with any Collateral owned by such Grantor shall be or become evidenced by an
Instrument or Chattel Paper, such Grantor shall immediately deliver such Instrument or Chattel
Paper to the Administrative Agent, duly indorsed in a manner satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent, or, if consented to by the Administrative Agent, shall mark all such Instruments and Chattel
Paper with the following legend: “This writing and the obligations evidenced or secured hereby are
subject to the security interest of Citicorp North America, Inc., as Administrative Agent”;
provided, that any notes with a principal amount less than €5,000,000 or the U.S. Dollar equivalent
thereof shall be pledged if the cost of obtaining such pledge is immaterial in relation to the
value of the other security or guarantee to be pledged.

          Section 4.8 Intellectual Property

          (a) Except as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, each Grantor
(either itself or through licensees) shall (i) continue to use each Trademark owned by such Grantor
that is Material Intellectual Property in order to maintain such Trademark in full force and effect
with respect to each class of goods for which such Trademark is then in use, free from any claim
of abandonment for non-use, (ii) maintain as in the past the quality of products and services
offered under such Trademark, (iii) use such Trademark with the appropriate notice of registration
and all other notices and legends required by applicable Requirements of Law, (iv) not adopt or use
any mark that is confusingly similar to such Trademark unless the Administrative Agent shall obtain
a security interest in such mark pursuant to this Agreement and (v) not (and not knowingly permit
any licensee or sublicensee thereof to)
do any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby such Trademark is reasonably likely to
become invalidated in any way; provided, that the parties acknowledge and agree that nothing in

16

otherwise terminating any Trademark or other Intellectual Property if such Grantor determines in
its good faith business judgment that such discontinuance is desirable in the conduct of its
business.

          (b) Each Grantor shall not (and not knowingly permit any licensee or sublicensee thereof to)
do any act, or omit to do any act, whereby any Patent owned by such Grantor that is Material

knowingly permit any of its licensees or sublicensees thereof to) do any act whereby any Copyright
owned by such Grantor that is Material Intellectual Property is reasonably likely to fall into the
public domain.

          (d) Each Grantor shall take commercially reasonable measures to protect all material trade
secrets owned by such Grantor and shall not knowingly permit any licensee or sublicensee thereof to
do any act, or omit to do any act, whereby any trade secret that is Material Intellectual Property

          (e) Each Grantor (either itself or through licensees) shall not knowingly do any act that uses
any Material Intellectual Property to infringe the intellectual property rights of any other
Person.

          (f) Each Grantor shall notify the Administrative Agent promptly if it knows that any
application or registration for any Material Intellectual Property is reasonably likely to become
invalidated, cancelled, limited in scope (in any material respect), forfeited, abandoned or
dedicated to the public, or of any material adverse determination or development (including the
institution (other than ex parte prosecution) of, or any such determination or development in, any
proceeding in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or
any court or tribunal in any country) regarding such Grantor’s ownership of, right to use, interest
in, or the validity of, any Material Intellectual Property owned by such Grantor.

          (g) Together with the delivery of a financial statement pursuant to Section 6.1(a) or (b) of
the Credit Agreement, a Grantor shall report any filing to the Administrative Agent, either by
itself or through any agent, licensee or designee, of an application for the registration of any
Intellectual Property. Upon request of the Administrative Agent, such Grantor shall execute and
deliver, and have recorded, all agreements, instruments, documents and papers as the Administrative
Agent may request to evidence the Administrative Agent’s security interest in such Copyright,
Patent or Trademark and the goodwill of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby.

          (i) In the event that any Material Intellectual Property owned by such Grantor is infringed
upon or misappropriated or diluted by a third party and such misappropriation or dilution is
reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, such Grantor shall notify the Administrative
Agent promptly after such Grantor learns thereof. Such Grantor shall take appropriate action in
response to such infringement, misappropriation of dilution, including promptly bringing suit for
infringement, misappropriation or dilution and to recover all damages for such infringement,
misappropriation or dilution, and shall take such other actions as may be appropriate in its
reasonable judgment under the circumstances to protect such Material Intellectual Property.

          (j) Unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent, each Grantor shall execute and
deliver to the Administrative Agent for filing in (i) the United States Copyright Office a

become delinquent, as the case may be, all taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies
imposed upon the Collateral or in respect of income or profits therefrom, as well as all claims of
any kind (including claims for labor, materials and supplies) against or with respect to the
Collateral, except that no such charge need be paid if the amount or validity thereof is currently
being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings, reserves in conformity with GAAP with
respect thereto have been provided on the books of such Grantor and such proceedings could not
reasonably be expected to result in the sale, forfeiture or loss of any material portion of the
Collateral or any interest therein.

          Section 4.11 Insurance

          Such Grantor shall (i) maintain, and cause to be maintained for each of its Subsidiaries
insurance with responsible and reputable insurance companies or associations in

businesses and owning similar properties in the same general areas in which such Grantor or such
Subsidiary operates, and such other insurance as may be reasonably requested by the Requisite
Lenders, and, in any event, all insurance required by any Collateral Documents and (ii) cause all
such insurance that is material to name the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties

satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, any certificate, agreement and other document, and take
all other action, deemed by the Administrative Agent to be reasonably necessary or appropriate for
the Administrative Agent to obtain, on behalf of the Secured Parties, a first priority, perfected
security interest in all such Commercial Tort Claims. Any supplement to delivered pursuant to this Section 4.12 (Notice of
Commercial Tort Claims) shall become part of for all purposes hereunder other than, absent a written consent of the

     ARTICLE V Remedial Provisions

          Section 5.1 Code and Other Remedies

          During the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may exercise, in
addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it in this Agreement and in any other
instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Secured Obligations, all rights and
remedies of a secured party under the UCC or any other applicable law. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent, without demand of performance or other
demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by
law referred to below) to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands,
defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances forthwith
collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon any Collateral, and may forthwith sell, lease,
assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver any Collateral (or
contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at
any exchange, broker’s board or office of the Administrative Agent or any Lender or elsewhere upon
such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices
as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any
credit

19

 

risk. The Administrative Agent shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales,
and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or
any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in any Grantor, which
right or equity is hereby waived and released. Each Grantor further agrees, at the Administrative
Agent’s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Administrative Agent at
places that the Administrative Agent shall reasonably select, whether at such Grantor’s premises or
elsewhere. The Administrative Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it
pursuant to this Section 5.1, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind
incurred in connection therewith or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any Collateral or in
any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Administrative Agent and any other Secured
Party hereunder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or
in part of the Secured Obligations, in such order as the Credit Agreement and the Collateral
Sharing Agreement shall prescribe, and only after such application and after the payment by the
Administrative Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law, need the Administrative
Agent account for the surplus, if any, to any Grantor. To the extent permitted by applicable law,
each Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Administrative Agent
or any other Secured Party arising out of the exercise by them of any rights hereunder. If any
notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice
shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other
disposition.

          Section 5.2 Accounts and Payments in Respect of General Intangibles

          (a) If required by the Administrative Agent at any time during the continuance of an Event of
Default, any payment of Accounts or payment in respect of General Intangibles, when collected by
any Grantor, shall be forthwith (and, in any event, within two Business Days) deposited by such
Grantor in the exact form received, duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Administrative Agent if
required, in a Cash Collateral Account, subject to withdrawal by the Administrative Agent as
provided in Section 5.4 (Proceeds to be Turned Over To Administrative Agent). Until so turned
over, such payment shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Administrative Agent, segregated
from other funds of such Grantor. Each such deposit of Proceeds of Accounts and payments in
respect of General Intangibles shall be accompanied by a report identifying in reasonable detail
the nature and source of the payments included in the deposit.

          (b) At the Administrative Agent’s request, during the continuance of an Event of Default, each
Grantor shall deliver to the Administrative Agent all original and other documents evidencing, and
relating to, the agreements and transactions that gave rise to the Accounts or payments in respect
of General Intangibles, including all original orders, invoices and shipping receipts.

          (c) The Administrative Agent may, without notice, at any time during the continuance of an
Event of Default, limit or terminate the authority of a Grantor to collect its Accounts or amounts
due under General Intangibles or any thereof.

          (d) The Administrative Agent in its own name or in the name of others may at any time during
the continuance of an Event of Default communicate with Account Debtors to
verify with them to the Administrative Agent’s satisfaction the existence, amount and terms of
any Account or amounts due under any General Intangible.

20

 

          (e) Upon the request of the Administrative Agent at any time during the continuance of an
Event of Default, each Grantor shall notify Account Debtors that the Accounts or General
Intangibles have been collaterally assigned to the Administrative Agent and that payments in
respect thereof shall be made directly to the Administrative Agent. In addition, the
Administrative Agent may at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default enforce such
Grantor’s rights against such Account Debtors and obligors of General Intangibles.

          (f) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Grantor shall remain liable under
each of the Accounts and payments in respect of General Intangibles to observe and perform all the
conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with
the terms of any agreement giving rise thereto. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any other
Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under any agreement giving rise to an Account
or a payment in respect of a General Intangible by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or
the receipt by the Administrative Agent nor any other Secured Party of any payment relating
thereto, nor shall the Administrative Agent nor any other Secured Party be obligated in any manner
to perform any obligation of any Grantor under or pursuant to any agreement giving rise to an
Account or a payment in respect of a General Intangible, to make any payment, to make any inquiry
as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or as to the sufficiency of any
performance by any party thereunder, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce
any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts that may have been assigned to it or to
which it may be entitled at any time or times.

          Section 5.3 Pledged Collateral

          (a) During the continuance of an Event of Default, upon notice by the Administrative Agent to
the relevant Grantor or Grantors, (i) the Administrative Agent shall have the right to receive any
Proceeds of the Pledged Collateral and make application thereof to the Obligations in the order set
forth in the Credit Agreement and the Collateral Sharing Agreement and (ii) the Administrative
Agent or its nominee may exercise (A) any voting, consent, corporate and other right pertaining to
the Pledged Collateral at any meeting of shareholders, partners or members, as the case may be, of
the relevant issuer or issuers of Pledged Collateral or otherwise and (B) any right of conversion,
exchange and subscription and any other right, privilege or option pertaining to the Pledged
Collateral as if it were the absolute owner thereof (including the right to exchange at its
discretion any of the Pledged Collateral upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization,
recapitalization or other fundamental change in the corporate structure of any issuer of Pledged
Securities, the right to deposit and deliver any Pledged Collateral with any committee, depositary,
transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as the
Administrative Agent may determine), all without liability except to account for property actually
received by it; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to any Grantor
to exercise any such right, privilege or option and shall not be responsible for any failure to do
so or delay in so doing.

          (b) In order to permit the Administrative Agent to exercise the voting and other consensual
rights that it may be entitled to exercise pursuant hereto and to receive all dividends and other
distributions that it may be entitled to receive hereunder, (i) each Grantor shall promptly execute
and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to the Administrative Agent all such proxies,
dividend payment orders and other instruments as the Administrative
Agent may from time to time reasonably request and (ii) without limiting the effect of clause
(i) above, such Grantor hereby grants to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable proxy to vote all
or any part of the Pledged Collateral and to exercise all other rights, powers, privileges and
remedies

21

 

to which a holder of the Pledged Collateral would be entitled (including giving or
withholding written consents of shareholders, partners or members, as the case may be, calling
special meetings of shareholders, partners or members, as the case may be, and voting at such
meetings), which proxy shall be effective, automatically and without the necessity of any action
(including any transfer of any Pledged Collateral on the record books of the issuer thereof) by any
other person (including the issuer of such Pledged Collateral or any officer or agent thereof)
during the continuance of an Event of Default and which proxy shall only terminate upon the payment
in full of the Secured Obligations.

          (c) Each Grantor hereby expressly authorizes and instructs each issuer of any Pledged
Collateral pledged hereunder by such Grantor to (i) comply with any instruction received by it from
the Administrative Agent in writing that (A) states that an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing and (B) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without any other
or further instructions from such Grantor, and each Grantor agrees that such issuer shall be fully
protected in so complying and (ii) unless otherwise expressly permitted hereby, pay any dividend or
other payment with respect to the Pledged Collateral directly to the Administrative Agent.

          (d) It is hereby acknowledged and agreed that the Administrative Agent shall not deliver any
blockage notice or similar document pursuant to any Deposit Account Control Agreement or Control
Account Agreement unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

          Section 5.4 Proceeds to be Turned Over To Administrative Agent

          All Proceeds received by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be held by the
Administrative Agent in a Cash Collateral Account. All Proceeds while held by the Administrative
Agent in a Cash Collateral Account (or by such Grantor in trust for the Administrative Agent) shall
continue to be held as collateral security for the Secured Obligations and shall not constitute
payment thereof until applied as provided in the Credit Agreement and Collateral Sharing Agreement.

          Section 5.5 Registration Rights

          (a) If the Administrative Agent shall determine to exercise its right to sell any the Pledged
Collateral pursuant to Section 5.1 (Code and Other Remedies), and if in the opinion of the
Administrative Agent it is necessary or advisable to have the Pledged Collateral, or any portion
thereof to be registered under the provisions of the Securities Act, the relevant Grantor shall
cause the issuer thereof to (i) execute and deliver, and cause the directors and officers of such
issuer to execute and deliver, all such instruments and documents, and do or cause to be done all
such other acts as may be, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, necessary or advisable to
register the Pledged Collateral, or that portion thereof to be sold, under the provisions of the
Securities Act, (ii) use its best efforts to cause the registration statement relating thereto to
become effective and to remain effective for a period of one year from the date of the first public
offering of the Pledged Collateral, or that portion thereof to be sold and (iii) make all
amendments thereto or to the related prospectus that, in the opinion of the
Administrative Agent, are necessary or advisable, all in conformity with the requirements of
the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
applicable thereto. Each Grantor agrees to cause such issuer to comply with the provisions of the
securities or “Blue Sky” laws of any jurisdiction that the Administrative Agent shall designate

22

 

and to make available to its security holders, as soon as practicable, an earnings statement (which
need not be audited) satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act.

          (b) Each Grantor recognizes that the Administrative Agent may be unable to effect a public
sale of any Pledged Collateral by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act
and applicable state securities laws or otherwise or may determine that a public sale is
impracticable or not commercially reasonable and, accordingly, may resort to one or more private
sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers that shall be obliged to agree, among other
things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the
distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale
may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and,
notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been
made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to
delay a sale of any Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer
thereof to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act, or under applicable
state securities laws, even if such issuer would agree to do so.

          (c) Each Grantor agrees to use its best efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts
as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of all or any portion of the Pledged Collateral
pursuant to this Section 5.5 valid and binding and in compliance with all other applicable
Requirements of Law. Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any covenant contained in this
Section 5.5 will cause irreparable injury to the Administrative Agent and other Secured Parties,
that the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in
respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this
Section 5.5 shall be specifically enforceable against such Grantor, and such Grantor hereby waives
and agrees not to assert any defense against an action for specific performance of such covenants
except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred under the Credit Agreement.

          Section 5.6 Deficiency

          Each Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other
disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay the Secured Obligations and the fees and
disbursements of any attorney employed by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to
collect such deficiency.

     ARTICLE VI The Administrative Agent

          Section 6.1 Administrative Agent’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact

          (a) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Administrative Agent and any
officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact
with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of
such Grantor or in its own name, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, to
take any appropriate action and to execute any document or
instrument that may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement,
and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby gives the Administrative
Agent the power and right, on behalf of such Grantor, without notice to or assent by such Grantor,
to do any of the following:

23

 

     (iv) in the name of such Grantor or its own name, or otherwise, take possession of and
indorse and collect any check, draft, note, acceptance or other instrument for the payment
of moneys due under any Account or General Intangible or with respect to any other
Collateral and file any claim or take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or
equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the Administrative Agent for the purpose of
collecting any such moneys due under any Account or General Intangible or with respect to
any other Collateral whenever payable;

     (v) in the case of any Intellectual Property, execute and deliver, and have recorded,
any agreement, instrument, document or paper as the Administrative Agent may request to
evidence the Administrative Agent’s security interest in such Intellectual Property and the
goodwill and General Intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby;

     (vi) pay or discharge taxes and Liens levied or placed on or threatened against the
Collateral, effect any repair or pay or discharge any insurance called for by the terms of
this Agreement (including all or any part of the premiums therefor and the costs thereof);

     (vii) execute, in connection with any sale provided for in Section 5.1 (Code and Other
Remedies) or 5.5 (Registration Rights), any endorsement, assignment or other instrument of
conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral; or

     (viii) (A) direct any party liable for any payment under any Collateral to make
payment of any moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to the Administrative Agent
or as the Administrative Agent shall direct, (B) ask or demand for, collect, and receive
payment of and receipt for, any moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at
any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral, (C) sign and indorse any invoice,
freight or express bill, bill of lading, storage or warehouse receipt, draft against
debtors, assignment, verification, notice and other document in connection with any
Collateral, (D) commence and prosecute any suit, action or proceeding at law or in equity
in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect any Collateral and to enforce any other
right in respect of any Collateral, (E) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought
against such Grantor with respect to any Collateral, (F) settle, compromise or adjust any
such suit, action or proceeding and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or
releases as the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate, (G) assign any Copyright, Patent
or Trademark (along with the goodwill of the business to which any such Trademark pertains)
throughout the world for such term or terms, on such conditions, and in such manner as the
Administrative Agent shall in its sole discretion determine, including the execution and
filing of any document necessary to effectuate or record such assignment and (H) generally,
sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any
Collateral as fully and completely as though the Administrative Agent were the absolute
owner thereof for all purposes, and do, at the Administrative Agent’s option and such
Grantor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things that the
Administrative Agent deems necessary to protect,
preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Administrative Agent’s and the other
Secured Parties’ security interests therein and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all
as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do.

24

 

Anything in this clause (a) to the contrary notwithstanding, the Administrative Agent agrees that
it shall not exercise any right under the power of attorney provided for in this clause (a) unless
an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

          (b) If any Grantor fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein, the
Administrative Agent, at its option, but without any obligation so to do, may perform or comply, or
otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement.

          (c) The expenses of the Administrative Agent incurred in connection with actions undertaken as
provided in this Section 6.1, together with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the rate
per annum at which interest would then be payable on past due Dollar Revolving Loans that are Base
Rate Loans under the Credit Agreement, from the date of payment by the Administrative Agent to the
date reimbursed by the relevant Grantor, shall be payable by such Grantor to the Administrative
Agent on demand.

          (d) Each Grantor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done
by virtue hereof. All powers, authorizations and agencies contained in this Agreement are coupled
with an interest and are irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated and the security interests
created hereby are released.

          Section 6.2 Duty of Administrative Agent

          The Administrative Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical
preservation of the Collateral in its possession shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the
Administrative Agent deals with similar property for its own account. Neither the Administrative
Agent, any other Secured Party nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents
shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any Collateral or for any delay in
doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the
request of any Grantor or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to
any Collateral. The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent hereunder are solely to protect
the Administrative Agent’s interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the
Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to exercise any such powers. The Administrative
Agent and the other Secured Parties shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually
receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their respective
officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure
to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

          Section 6.3 Authorization of Financing Statements

          Each Grantor hereby authorizes the filing of any financing statements or continuation
statements, and amendments to financing statements or continuation statements, in any jurisdictions
and with any filing offices as the Administrative Agent may determine, in its sole discretion, are
necessary or advisable to perfect the security interests granted to the Administrative Agent in
connection herewith. Such financing statements may describe the collateral in the same manner as
described in any security agreement or pledge agreement entered
into by the parties in connection herewith or may contain an indication or description of
collateral that describes such property in any other manner as the Administrative Agent may
determine, in its sole discretion, is necessary, advisable or prudent to ensure the perfection of
the security interest in the collateral granted to the Administrative Agent in connection herewith,
including,

25

 

without limitation, describing such property as “all assets” or “all personal property”
whether now owned or hereafter acquired.

          Section 6.4 Authority of Administrative Agent

          Each Grantor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Administrative Agent
under this Agreement with respect to any action taken by the Administrative Agent or the exercise
or non-exercise by the Administrative Agent of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other
right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Agreement shall, as between
the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, be governed by the Collateral Sharing
Agreement, the Credit Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from
time to time among them, but, as between the Administrative Agent and the Grantors, the
Administrative Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Administrative
Agent and the other Secured Parties with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting,
and no Grantor shall be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such
authority. To the extent that the Collateral Sharing Agreement conflicts with any other Loan
Document with regard to the authority of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Sharing Agreement
shall control.

     ARTICLE VII Miscellaneous

          Section 7.1 Amendments in Writing

          None of the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented or
otherwise modified except in accordance with Section 11.1 (Amendments, Waivers, Etc.) of the Credit
Agreement.

          Section 7.2 Notices

          All notices, requests and demands to or upon the Administrative Agent or any Grantor hereunder
shall be effected in the manner provided for in Section 11.8 (Notices, Etc.) of the Credit
Agreement; provided, however, that any such notice, request or demand to or upon any Grantor shall
be addressed to the U.S. Borrower’s notice address set forth in such Section 11.8.

          Section 7.3 No Waiver by Course of Conduct; Cumulative Remedies

          Neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Secured Party shall by any act (except by a
written instrument pursuant to Section 7.1 (Amendments in Writing)), delay, indulgence, omission or
otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any
Default or Event of Default. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of
the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall
operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege
hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right,
power or privilege. A waiver by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party of any right
or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed
as a bar to any right or remedy that the Administrative Agent or such other Secured Party
would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies herein provided are
cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any other rights or
remedies provided by law.

26

Security Agreement or evidence payment or performance of all or any portion of such obligations and
liabilities. Each of the Grantors hereby consents to the execution, delivery and performance of
the Credit Agreement and all of the other Loan Documents executed or delivered in connection
therewith.

          (c) The terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Administrative Agent’s, the Lenders’
and the Issuers’ rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall apply

Agreement) (the “Existing Loan Documents”).

          (d) Each Grantor hereby reaffirms the Liens granted pursuant to the Existing Loan Documents to

          (e) On and after the Effective Date, (i) all references to the Existing Pledge and Security
Agreement (or to any amendment or any amendment and restatement thereof) in the Loan Documents
shall be deemed to refer to the Existing Pledge and Security Agreement, as amended and restated
hereby, (ii) all references to any section (or subsection) of the Existing Pledge and Security
Agreement in any Loan Document (but not herein) shall be amended to become, mutatis mutandis,
references to the corresponding provisions of this Agreement and (iii) except as the context
otherwise provides, on or after the Effective Date, all references to this Agreement herein
(including for purposes of indemnification and reimbursement of fees) shall be deemed to be
reference to the Existing Pledge and Security Agreement, as amended and restated hereby.

          (f) This amendment and restatement is limited as written and is not a consent to any other
amendment, restatement, waiver or other modification, whether or not similar, and, except as
expressly provided herein or in any other Loan Document, all terms and

27

 

conditions of the Loan Documents remain in full force and effect unless otherwise specifically amended by this Agreement
or any other Loan Document.

          Section 7.5 Successors and Assigns

          This Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each Grantor and shall
inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and each other Secured Party and their successors
and assigns; provided, however, that no Grantor may assign, transfer or delegate any of its rights
or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

          Section 7.6 Counterparts

          This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number
of separate counterparts (including by telecopy), each of which when so executed shall be deemed to
be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
Signature pages may be detached from multiple counterparts and attached to a single counterpart so
that all signature pages are attached to the same document. Delivery of an executed counterpart by
telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart.

          Section 7.7 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.

          Section 7.8 Section Headings

          The Article and Section titles contained in this Agreement are, and shall be, without
substantive meaning or content of any kind whatsoever and are not part of the agreement of the
parties hereto.

          Section 7.9 Entire Agreement

          This Agreement together with the other Loan Documents represents the entire agreement of the
parties and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter
hereof. This Agreement and each other Loan Document are subject to the terms and conditions set
forth in the Collateral Sharing Agreement in all respects and, in the event of any conflict between
the Collateral Sharing Agreement, this Agreement or any other Loan Document with regard to the
authority of the Administrative Agent or otherwise, the terms of the Collateral Sharing Agreement
shall govern.

          Section 7.10 Governing Law

          This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed by, and
construed and interpreted in accordance with, the law of the State of New York.

28

 

          Section 7.11 Additional Grantors

          If, pursuant to Section 7.11 (Additional Collateral and Guaranties) of the Credit Agreement,
the U.S. Borrower shall be required to cause any Domestic Subsidiary that is not a Grantor to
become a Grantor hereunder, such Domestic Subsidiary shall execute and deliver to the
Administrative Agent a Joinder Agreement in the form of and shall thereafter for all purposes be a party hereto and
have the same rights, benefits and obligations as a Grantor party hereto on the Effective Date.

          Section 7.12 Release of Collateral

          (a) At the time provided in Section 10.8 of the Credit Agreement, the Collateral shall be
released from the Liens created hereby and this Agreement and all obligations (other than those
expressly stated to survive such termination) of the Administrative Agent and each Grantor
hereunder shall terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any
party, and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the Grantors. At the request and sole
expense of any Grantor following any such termination, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to
such Grantor any Collateral of such Grantor held by the Administrative Agent hereunder and execute
and deliver to such Grantor such documents as such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence
such termination.

          (b) If the Administrative Agent shall be directed or permitted pursuant to Section 10.8 of the
Credit Agreement to release any Lien created hereby upon any Collateral (including any Collateral
sold or disposed of by any Grantor in a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement), such
Collateral shall be released from the Lien created hereby to the extent provided, and subject to
the terms and conditions set forth, in Section 10.8(b) (Concerning the Collateral and the
Collateral Documents) of the Credit Agreement and, in connection therewith, the Administrative
Agent, at the request and sole expense of the U.S. Borrower, shall execute and deliver to the U.S.
Borrower all releases or other documents reasonably necessary or desirable for the release of the
Lien created hereby on such Collateral. At the request and sole expense of the U.S. Borrower, a
Grantor shall be released from its obligations hereunder in the event that all the capital stock of
such Grantor shall be so sold or disposed; provided, however, that the U.S. Borrower shall have
delivered to the Administrative Agent, at least ten Business Days prior to the date of the proposed
release, a written request for release identifying the relevant Grantor and the terms of the sale
or other disposition in reasonable detail, including the price thereof and any expenses in
connection therewith, together with a certification by the U.S. Borrower in form and substance
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent stating that such transaction is in compliance with the
Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

          Section 7.13 Reinstatement

          Each Grantor further agrees that, if any payment made by any Loan Party or other Person and
applied to the Obligations is at any time annulled, avoided, set aside, rescinded, invalidated,
declared to be fraudulent or preferential or otherwise required to be refunded or
repaid, or the proceeds of Collateral are required to be returned by any Secured Party to such
Loan Party, its estate, trustee, receiver or any other party, including any Grantor, under any
bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such
payment or repayment, any Lien or other Collateral securing such liability shall be and remain in
full force and effect, as fully as if such payment had never been made or, if prior thereto the
Lien

29

 

granted hereby or other Collateral securing such liability hereunder shall have been released
or terminated by virtue of such cancellation or surrender), such Lien or other Collateral shall be
reinstated in full force and effect, and such prior cancellation or surrender shall not diminish,
release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect any Lien or other Collateral securing the
obligations of any Grantor in respect of the amount of such payment.

1EX-10.1 NON-COMPETITION AGREEMENT

 

Exhibit 10.1

EXECUTION VERSION

NON-COMPETITION AGREEMENT

     THIS NON-COMPETITION AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into this 30th
day of May, 2007, by and between AVERIO HOLDINGS LIMITED, a private company limited by shares
incorporated under the laws of Ireland under registration number 379811 (“Purchaser”), and
PRG-SCHULTZ INTERNATIONAL, INC., a Georgia corporation (“PRG”).

BACKGROUND:

     A. Contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement, Purchaser, PRG and Meridian
Corporation Limited, a private limited company organized under the laws of the Isle of Jersey and a
wholly owned subsidiary of PRG (“Seller”), are entering into a Sale of Shares Agreement
(the “Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which Purchaser is purchasing from Seller all of
the issued and outstanding capital stock of Meridian VAT Reclaim Operations Limited (the
“Company”) and Meridian VAT Reclaim Services Limited (“MVRSL”)

     B. As an inducement to Purchaser to enter into the Purchase Agreement, and in accordance with
Section 2.2 thereof, PRG is entering into this Agreement.

     NOW, THEREFORE, FOR AND IN CONSIDERATION of the premises, the mutual promises, covenants and
agreements contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency
of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

     1. Confidentiality. During the three (3) year period beginning on the date hereof,
PRG shall regard and treat each item of information or data constituting “Confidential Information”
(as hereinafter defined) as strictly confidential and wholly owned by Purchaser, and PRG shall not,
directly or indirectly, use for any purpose, or distribute, disclose or otherwise communicate to
any other person or entity, any Confidential Information, in each case except to the extent
otherwise permitted in writing in advance by Purchaser or as otherwise required by law; provided,
however, to the extent any Confidential Information constitutes a “trade secret” under applicable
law, the restriction contained in this Section 1 shall continue to apply beyond such three (3) year
period for so long as such information remains a trade secret. For purposes hereof, “Confidential
Information” shall mean the valuable and proprietary ideas, information, knowledge and discoveries
(whether or not patentable) of Purchaser and the entities controlled by Purchaser that are not
generally known to the competitors of Purchaser, including, without limitation, methods, equipment,
compositions, technology, business plans, marketing plans, internal memoranda, formulae, trade
secrets, know-how, research and development programs, sales methods, customer and supplier lists,
pricing and sourcing information, mailing lists, customer usages and requirements, proprietary
computer programs (including source and object codes), employee information and other confidential
technical business information and data.

     2. Non-Competition. During the three (3) year period beginning on the date hereof,
PRG shall not, without the prior written consent of Purchaser, directly or indirectly, own,

 

 

operate, carry on or engage in any business which provides value added tax recovery services, other
than “Domestic VAT Services” (as hereinafter defined). For purposes hereof, “Domestic VAT
Services” shall mean 6th Directive VAT Audit services which identify under-recoveries of
value added taxes by a client in its local VAT returns (Form 3s).

     3. Non-Solicitation of Personnel. During the three (3) year period beginning on the
date hereof, PRG shall not, without the prior written consent of Purchaser in each instance,
directly or indirectly: (a) hire, engage or employ any employee or other personnel of Purchaser or
any entity controlled by Purchaser; (b) solicit or attempt to solicit any employee or other
personnel of Purchaser or any entity controlled by Purchaser to terminate his or her affiliation
with Purchaser or any entity controlled by Purchaser or to violate the terms of any employment
agreement between him or her and Purchaser or any entity controlled by Purchaser; or (c) contact
any employee or other personnel of Purchaser or any entity controlled by Purchaser for any purpose
prohibited by subsections (a) or (b) above.

     4. Subsidiaries. PRG shall cause each entity controlled by it to abide by the
restrictions on PRG contained in this Agreement.

     5. Specific Performance. PRG acknowledges and agrees that any breach of this
Agreement by it will cause irreparable damage to Purchaser, the exact amount of which will be
difficult to determine, and that the remedies at law for any such breach may be inadequate.
Accordingly, and without prejudice to Section 7(g) below, PRG agrees that Purchaser shall be
entitled to obtain, in the jurisdiction where the breach occurs, an order for specific performance
and/or other injunctive relief and/or damages to enforce or prevent any breach of this Agreement by
it.

     6. Name Change. Promptly after the date hereof, PRG shall cause Seller to change its
name under the laws of the Isle of Jersey to a name which does not include the word “Meridian” or
any other word which is intended to, or is reasonably likely to be, confused with the word
“Meridian.” In addition, as soon as reasonably practicable after such name change is completed,
PRG shall notify Purchaser of Seller’s new name and the effective date thereof.

     7. Miscellaneous.

     (a) This Agreement contains the entire agreement and understanding concerning the
subject matter hereof between the parties hereto. No waiver, termination or discharge of
this Agreement, or any of the terms or provisions hereof, shall be binding upon either party
hereto unless confirmed in writing. This Agreement may not be modified or amended, except
by a writing executed by both parties hereto. No waiver by either party hereto of any term
or provision of this Agreement or of any default hereunder shall affect such party’s rights
thereafter to enforce such term or provision or to exercise any right or remedy in the event
of any other default, whether or not similar.

     (b) If it is judicially determined that PRG has violated any of the restrictions
contained in this Agreement, the time period of such restriction shall be automatically

-2-

 

extended by a period of time equal in length to the period during which such violation
occurred.

     (c) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of
the State of Georgia, United States of America.

     (d) This Agreement may not be assigned, in whole or in part, by either party hereto
without the prior written consent of the other party, and any attempted assignment not in
accordance herewith shall be null and void and of no force or effect.

     (e) This Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto
and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

     (f) If any provision of this Agreement shall be held void, voidable, invalid or
inoperative, no other provision of this Agreement shall be affected as a result thereof,
and, accordingly, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and
effect as though such void, voidable, invalid or inoperative provision had not been
contained herein. PRG hereby acknowledges and agrees that it is entering into this
Agreement ancillary to the sale of a business from which it shall derive a material economic
benefit and that this Agreement shall be interpreted and enforced under legal standards
applicable to covenants entered into ancillary to the sale of a business.

     (g) The parties hereto hereby submit to the jurisdiction of the United States District
Court for the Northern District of Georgia and of any Georgia state court sitting in Atlanta
for the purposes of all legal proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement, with
the sole exception of those contemplated by Section 5 above. In addition, each party hereto
hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection it may now
or hereafter have to the venue of any such proceeding which is brought in any such court.
