Ms. Juliette E. Fay

12 Fairview Drive

Southborough, MA 01772

Dear Julie:

You have informed me of your intention to resign your employment as Executive Vice President and
Chief Development Officer for National Mentor Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) effective March 31,
2011 for “Good Reason” (as that term is defined in section 2(a)(v)(A) of the Amended and Restated
Severance and Noncompetition Agreement between you and the Company dated December 31, 2008 (the
“Severance Agreement”)). The Company hereby accepts your resignation on that basis.

In connection with your resignation, if you sign and return this letter agreement and release (the
“Agreement”) within twenty-one (21) days and affirm your assent to this agreement by signing
Attachment A to this Agreement on your effective date of resignation, and do not revoke your assent
to the terms of this Agreement or Attachment A, the Company will provide you with the severance
benefits described below. By timely signing and returning this Agreement and Attachment A and not
revoking your assent, you will be entering into a binding agreement with the Company and will be
agreeing to the terms and conditions set forth in the numbered sections below, including the
release of claims set forth in section 3. Therefore, you are advised to consult with an attorney
before signing this Agreement. If you sign this Agreement and Attachment A, you may change your
mind and revoke your assent during the seven (7) day period after you have signed and returned
either document by notifying Linda DeRenzo, Senior Vice President and General Counsel, in writing
and delivering the revocation via overnight mail to her attention at 313 Congress Street, Boston,
Massachusetts 02210. If you do not so revoke, this Agreement (together with Attachment A) will
become a binding agreement between you and the Company upon the expiration of the seven day
revocation period. If you choose not to timely sign or you timely revoke your assent, you will not
be eligible for any severance benefits from the Company. You will, however, receive payment for
your final wages and any accrued but unused vacation through your final date of employment.

If you do not sign this Agreement, all other Company-provided benefits cease upon your separation,
except as provided herein or in the applicable plan. Further, the disposition of your Units, as
defined by the Management Unit Subscription Agreements between you and the Company dated June 26,
2006 (as amended August 11, 2008 and September 16, 2009), January 2, 2007 (as amended September 16,
2009) and August 11, 2008 (as amended July 24, 2009 and September 16, 2009) will be governed by the
terms of section 4.2(a)(ii) of such agreements.

 

 

 

The following numbered sections set forth the terms and conditions that will apply if you timely
sign and return this Agreement and Attachment A and do not revoke your assent within the seven day
revocation period:

	1.	 	Separation Date — Your effective date of separation from the Company will be March
31, 2011 (the “Separation Date”). As of the Separation Date, all salary payments (except for
any salary, payment for accrued vacation or expense reimbursement remaining unpaid for the
period through the Separation Date) from the Company will stop and any benefits you currently
have under Company-provided benefit plans will end, except as required by federal or state
law, or as otherwise described in section 2 below. You agree to cooperate with the Company in
resigning as an officer and, as applicable, as a director from the Company and each of its
affiliates, as applicable.

	2.	 	Description of Severance Benefits — In return for your timely execution, return and
non-revocation of this Agreement and Attachment A, the Company agrees to provide you with the
following severance benefits as provided for in section 2(d) of the Severance Agreement
(except with respect to section 2(f) and (g) below which are supplemental) (collectively, the
“Severance Benefits”):

	 	(a)	 	Severance Pay. Pursuant to section 2(d)(i) of the Severance Agreement,
the Company agrees to provide you with a severance payment equivalent to twelve (12)
months of the base rate of pay in effect as of your final day of employment (the
“Severance Pay”). The Severance Pay shall be subject to all applicable state and
federal taxes and withholdings and will be paid to you in the form of salary
continuation in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices. Assuming all
releases have been executed and the revocation period has expired without revocation by
you, any payments related to your separation from the Company shall be made, or
commence as the case may be, within thirty (30) days following the Separation Date.
Except as provided in Section 1, you will not be eligible for, nor shall you have a
right to receive, any wage or salary payments from the Company after the Separation
Date other than the Severance Pay.

	 	(b)	 	Bonus Pay. You received a bonus payment for fiscal year 2010 in the
amount of Ninety-Seven Thousand Ninety Two Dollars and Eighty-Eight Cents ($97,092.88)
(the “2010 Bonus”). Pursuant to section 2(d)(ii) of the Severance Agreement, you shall
receive an amount equal to the 2010 Bonus, in equal monthly installments over a period
of twelve months, with the first payment to be made at the same time as the first
installment of Severance Pay.

	 	(c)	 	Benefits. Pursuant to section 2(d)(iii) of the Severance Agreement,
the Company will continue to provide you with Executive Long Term Care and Supplemental
Disability Benefits for the twelve-month period you will be receiving Severance Pay.

	 	(d)	 	Payments under Deferred Compensation Plans. The Company shall pay you
an amount equal to $165,820 in accordance with the terms of the Company’s Executive
Deferred Compensation Plan, namely no later than the latest of (i) the last day of
2011 or (ii) the 15th day of the third month following the Termination Date.
Typically, the Company has made distributions under the Executive Deferred Compensation
Plan within the ninety period following separation of employment.

	 	(e)	 	Non-Disparagement. The Company agrees that the executive officers and
directors of the Company will not make any false, disparaging, derogatory or defamatory
statements in public
or in private regarding you or your employment with the Company. Unless otherwise
directed by the Company, you agree that you will direct requests for employment
verification or references to either me or Linda DeRenzo, Senior Vice President and
General Counsel, 313 Congress Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02210. In response to such
inquiries, including inquires from prospective employers, the Company will provide your
dates of employment, job titles held during your employment with the Company, and
nothing inconsistent with the departure statement referenced in section 6 below.

	 	(f)	 	Outgoing Message. The Company agrees that you may draft a statement
concerning your separation from the Company to be issued by you to employees within the
Company, provided that you submit the message to Linda DeRenzo at least seven (7) days
in advance of and receive approval from the Company prior to issuing such message.

	 	(g)	 	Supplemental Payment. The Company agrees to provide you a supplemental
payment of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000), less all applicable state and federal
taxes and withholdings which shall be paid to you in the form of a lump sum payment
within thirty (30) days of the Separation Date, assuming you have executed and not
revoked Attachment A to this Agreement.

attorneys’ fees up to a maximum of Fifteen Thousand Dollars ($15,000). Such attorneys’
fees shall be paid directly to Mintz Levin, One Financial Center, Boston, MA 02111,
Attn: Robert M. Gault. The Company agrees to pay the fees covered by this section
within thirty (30) days of receiving an invoice from Mintz Levin.

acknowledged, the Company fully, forever, irrevocably and unconditionally releases,
remises and discharges you, your heirs, executors, administrators, representatives,
insurers, attorneys, successors, and assigns (collectively, the “Fay Released Parties”)
from any and all actions, complaints, causes of action, suits, debts, dues, sums of

variances, damages, claims, counterclaims, demands, and losses of any kind and nature
whatsoever, whether in law or in equity, which the Company now has or ever had against
the Fay Released Parties, known or unknown, suspect or unsuspected. Nothing in this
section shall be deemed to release your obligations to the Company under this Agreement
or the agreements described in Section 16, Entire Agreement, below.

	4.	 	Post-Separation Obligations —You reaffirm your obligation, except as required by law
or as appropriate to enforce the terms of this or any other agreement with the Company, to
keep confidential and not to disclose all non-public information concerning the Company which

the Company to remove any Company information stored on such devices.

	6.	 	Non-Disparagement — You understand and agree that, as a condition for payment to you of the
Severance Benefits, you shall not make any negative, false, disparaging, derogatory or
defamatory statements in public or in private regarding the Company or any of its directors,
officers, employees, agents, representatives or any other Released Party or about the
Company’s business affairs and financial condition, except as appropriate in the ordinary
course of your employment with the Company through the Separation Date and then only
internally to appropriate members of management of the Company. You further agree, beginning
at the time of your resignation from the Company; not to contact any current employees of the
Company or any individuals who were employed by the Company during the dates of your
employment regarding the business affairs, financial condition and employment matters of the
Company, except as authorized by the Company or to enforce your rights under this or any other

your duties and responsibilities while you were employed as an officer and director of the

Company has approved in writing. This departure statement shall be submitted to Linda DeRenzo
and approved by the Company prior to your execution of this Agreement and Attachment A.
Nothing in this Section 6 shall preclude you from any communication required by law, to any
law enforcement agency, or to enforce the terms of this or any other agreement with the
Company.

	7.	 	Validity — Should any provision of this Agreement be declared or be determined by any court
of competent jurisdiction to be illegal or invalid, the validity of the remaining parts, terms
or provisions shall not be affected thereby and said illegal or invalid part, term or
provision shall be deemed not to be a part of this Agreement.

	8.	 	Confidentiality of Agreement — To the extent permitted by law, you understand and
agree that, as a condition for payment to you of the Severance Benefits, the terms and
contents of this Agreement, and the contents of the negotiations and discussions resulting in

attorneys and other professional advisors and members of your immediate family (the “Permitted
Parties”), shall be maintained as confidential by you and the Permitted Parties, and shall not

section require you to incur travel expenses, the Company shall promptly reimburse you (and
advance where substantial) for all reasonable transportation, meal and hotel expenses, and
other out-of-pocket expenses, provided such expenses are approved by the Company in advance
and in writing. Should your time for such cooperation following the time you are receiving
Severance Pay exceed twenty (20) hours, the Company shall pay you $150 for each additional
hour promptly on receipt of reasonable documentation stating the hours and describing your
services.

	12.	 	Acknowledgments — You acknowledge that you have been given at least twenty-one (21) days to
consider this Agreement, and that the Company advised you to consult with an attorney prior to
signing this Agreement. You understand that you may revoke this Agreement for a period of
seven (7) days after you sign it, and the Agreement shall not be effective or enforceable

     Section 2.1. Guarantee. (a) (i) Each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally,
unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees to the U.S. Administrative Agent, for the benefit of
the applicable Secured Parties, the prompt and complete payment and performance by each U.S.
Borrower and Canadian Finco when due and payable (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration
or otherwise) of the Borrower Obligations of such U.S. Borrower and Canadian Finco owed to the

of such Canadian Borrower owed to the applicable Secured Parties.

          (b) Anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum
liability of each Guarantor hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall in no event exceed
the amount that can be guaranteed by such Guarantor under applicable law, including applicable
federal and state laws relating to the insolvency of debtors; provided that, to the maximum
extent permitted under applicable law, it is the intent of the parties hereto that (x) the amount
of the liability of any of the Guarantors or any guarantee in respect of Indebtedness permitted
pursuant to clause (b) of subsection 8.2 of the Credit Agreement shall be reduced before the amount
of the liability of the respective Guarantor is reduced hereunder and (y) the rights of
contribution of each Guarantor provided in following subsection 2.2 be included as an asset of the
respective Guarantor in determining the maximum liability of such Guarantor hereunder.

          (c) Each Guarantor agrees that the Borrower Obligations guaranteed by it hereunder may at any
time and from time to time exceed the amount of the liability of such Guarantor hereunder without
impairing the guarantee contained in this Article 2 or affecting the rights and remedies of
the U.S. Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party hereunder.

          (d) The guarantee contained in this Article 2 shall remain in full force and effect
until the earlier to occur of (i) the first date on which all the Loans, any Reimbursement
Obligations, all other Borrower Obligations then due and owing, and the obligations of each
Guarantor under the guarantee contained in this Article 2 then due and owing shall have
been

11

 

satisfied by payment in full in cash, no Letter of Credit shall be outstanding and the Commitments
shall have been terminated, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of the Credit
Agreement any of the Borrowers may be free from any Borrower Obligations, or (ii) as to any
Guarantor, the sale or other disposition of all of the Capital Stock of such Guarantor (to a Person
other than Holdings, the Parent Borrower or a Subsidiary of either) as permitted under the Credit
Agreement.

          (e) No payment made by any Borrower, any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other
Person or received or collected by the U.S. Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party from
any of the Borrowers, any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person by virtue of
any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at any time or from time to
time in reduction of or in payment of any of the
Borrower Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability
of any Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment (other than any payment
made by such Guarantor in respect of the Borrower Obligations or any payment received or collected
from such Guarantor in respect of any of the Borrower Obligations), remain liable for the Borrower
Obligations of each Borrower guaranteed by it hereunder up to the maximum liability of such
Guarantor hereunder until the earlier to occur of (i) the first date on which all the Loans, any
Reimbursement Obligations, and all other Borrower Obligations then due and owing, are paid in full
in cash, no Letter of Credit shall be outstanding (except for Letters of Credit that have been cash
collateralized in a manner satisfactory to the Issuing Lender) and the Commitments are terminated
or (ii) the sale or other disposition of all of the Capital Stock of such Guarantor (to a Person
other than Holdings, the Parent Borrower or a Subsidiary of either) as permitted under the Credit
Agreement.

     Section 2.2. Right of Contribution. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent
that a Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share (based, to the maximum extent
permitted by law, on the respective Adjusted Net Worths of the Guarantors on the date the
respective payment is made) of any payment made hereunder, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek
and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor hereunder that has not paid its
proportionate share of such payment. Each Guarantor’s right of contribution shall be subject to the
terms and conditions of subsection 2.3. The provisions of this subsection 2.2 shall in no respect
limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor to the U.S. Administrative Agent and the
other Secured Parties, and each Guarantor shall remain liable to the U.S. Administrative Agent and
the other Secured Parties for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder.

     Section 2.3. No Subrogation.
Notwithstanding any
payment made
by any
Guarantor hereunder or any set-off or application of funds of any Guarantor by the U.S.
Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party, no Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to
any of the rights of the U.S. Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party against any Borrower
or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the U.S.
Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party for the payment of the Borrower Obligations, nor
shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Borrower
or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts
owing to the U.S. Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties by the Borrowers on account of
the Borrower Obligations are paid in full in cash, no Letter of Credit shall be outstanding and the
Commitments are terminated. If any amount

12

 

shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the
Borrower Obligations shall not have been paid in full in cash or any Letter of Credit shall remain
outstanding (and shall not have been cash collateralized in a manner satisfactory to the Issuing
Lender) or any of the Commitments shall remain in effect, such amount shall be held by such
Guarantor in trust for the U.S. Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, segregated from
other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over
to the U.S. Administrative Agent in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by
such Guarantor to the U.S. Administrative Agent if required), to be held as collateral security for
all of the Borrower Obligations (whether matured or unmatured) guaranteed by such Guarantor and/or
then or at any time thereafter may be applied against any Borrower Obligations, whether matured or
unmatured, in such order as the U.S. Administrative Agent may determine.

     Section 2.4. Amendments, etc. with respect to the Obligations. To the maximum extent
permitted by law, each Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any
reservation of rights against any Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by any
Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Borrower Obligations made by the U.S. Collateral
Agent, the U.S. Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party may be rescinded by the U.S.
Collateral Agent, the U.S. Administrative Agent or such other Secured Party and any of the Borrower
Obligations continued, and the Borrower Obligations, or the liability of any other Person upon or
for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with
respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended,
waived, modified, accelerated, compromised, subordinated, waived, surrendered or released by the
U.S. Collateral Agent, the U.S. Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party, and the Credit
Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection
therewith may be amended, waived, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the
U.S. Collateral Agent or the U.S. Administrative Agent (or the Required Lenders or the applicable
Lenders(s), as the case may be) may deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security,
guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the U.S. Collateral Agent, the U.S. Administrative
Agent or any other Secured Party for the payment of any of the Borrower Obligations may be sold,
exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. None of the U.S. Collateral Agent, the U.S.
Administrative Agent and each other Secured Party shall have any obligation to protect, secure,
perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for any of the Borrower Obligations
or for the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or any property subject thereto, except to
the extent required by applicable law.

     Section 2.5. Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional. Each Guarantor waives, to the
maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any and all notice of the creation, renewal,
extension or accrual of any of the Borrower Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the
U.S. Collateral Agent, the U.S. Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party upon the guarantee
contained in this Article 2 or acceptance of the guarantee contained in this Article
 2; each of the Borrower Obligations, and any obligation contained therein, shall conclusively
be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in
reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Article 2; and all dealings between any of
the Borrowers and any of the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the U.S. Collateral Agent, the U.S.
Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, on the other hand, likewise shall be
conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon the guarantee

13

 

contained in this Article 2. Each Guarantor waives, to the maximum extent permitted by
applicable law, diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or
nonpayment to or upon any Borrower or any of the other Guarantors with respect to any of the
Borrower Obligations. Each Guarantor understands and agrees, to the extent permitted by law, that
the guarantee contained in this Article 2 shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and
unconditional guarantee of payment and not of collection. Each Guarantor hereby waives, to the
maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any and all defenses (other than any suit for breach of
a contractual provision of any of the Loan Documents) that it may have arising out of or in
connection with any and all of the following: (a) the validity or enforceability of the Credit
Agreement or any other Loan Document, any of the Borrower Obligations or any other collateral
security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to
time held by the U.S. Collateral Agent, the U.S. Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party,
(b) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) that may
at any time be available to or be asserted by any of the Borrowers against the U.S. Collateral
Agent, the U.S. Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party, (c) any change in the time, place,
manner or place of payment, amendment, or waiver or increase in any of the Obligations, (d) any

Obligation or the rights of the U.S. Collateral Agent, the U.S. Administrative Agent or any other
Secured Party with respect thereto, including, without limitation: (i) the application of any such
law, regulation, decree or order, including any prior approval, which would prevent the exchange of
any currency (other than Dollars) for Dollars or the remittance of funds outside of such
jurisdiction or the unavailability of Dollars in any legal exchange market in such jurisdiction in
accordance with normal commercial practice, (ii) a declaration of banking moratorium or any
suspension of payments by banks in such jurisdiction or the imposition by such jurisdiction or any
Governmental Authority thereof of any moratorium on, the required rescheduling or restructuring of,

nationalization or requisition by such country or any Governmental Authority that directly or
indirectly deprives any Borrower of any assets or their use, or of the ability to operate its
business or a material part thereof, or (iv) any war (whether or not declared), insurrection,
revolution, hostile act, civil strife or similar events occurring in such jurisdiction which has
the same effect as the events described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above (in each of the cases

construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of any of the Borrowers for the Borrower
Obligations, or of such Guarantor under the guarantee contained in this Article 2, in
bankruptcy or in any other instance. When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its
rights and remedies hereunder against any Guarantor, the U.S. Collateral Agent, the U.S.
Administrative Agent and any other Secured Party may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a
similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against any of the
Borrowers, any other Guarantor or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee
for the Borrower Obligations guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder or any right of offset with
respect thereto, and any

14

 

failure by the U.S. Collateral Agent, the U.S. Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to
make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the
Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security
or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of any of the Borrower, any
other Guarantor or any other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset,
shall not relieve any Guarantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or
affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the
U.S. Collateral Agent, the U.S. Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party against any
Guarantor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any
legal proceedings.

     Section 2.6. Reinstatement. The guarantee of any Guarantor contained in this
Article 2 shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any
time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Borrower Obligations guaranteed by such Guarantor
hereunder is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the U.S. Collateral Agent, the
U.S. Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution,
liquidation or reorganization of any Borrower or any Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the

property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.

except to the extent that, pursuant to the Code or other applicable law, the granting of security
interests therein can be made without resulting in a breach, default or termination of such
Restrictive Agreements);

     (b) any Equipment that would otherwise be included in the Security

exercise of any right or remedy by the U.S. Collateral Agent hereunder are subject to the
provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the

contrary contained above, to the extent any Excess Foreign Subsidiary Capital Stock is pledged
hereunder, such Excess Foreign Subsidiary Capital Stock shall secure Borrower Obligations of the
respective Grantor only as a guarantor of the Borrower Obligations of the Canadian Borrowers, and
shall not secure any direct or other Obligations of the U.S. Borrowers (or guarantees of such
Obligations by the respective Grantor).

     5.3.2 Maintenance of Pledged Stock.

by this Agreement or Liens arising by operation of law or (iv) enter into any agreement or
undertaking restricting the right or ability of such Pledgor or the U.S. Collateral Agent to sell,
assign or transfer any of the Pledged Securities or Proceeds thereof. Each interest in any limited
liability company created after the Closing Date pledged hereunder shall be represented by a
certificate, shall be a “security” within the meaning of the Article VIII of the Code and
shall be governed by Article VIII of the Code. The charter documents of each such limited
liability company shall include an express provision providing that each interest
in such entity “is a security governed by Article VIII of the Uniform Commercial Code in
effect in the State of New York on the date hereof”.

U.S. Collateral Agent for the account of the Secured Parties only as provided in subsection 6.5 and
(ii) until so turned over, shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the U.S. Collateral Agent and
the other Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Grantor. All Proceeds constituting
collections or other cash proceeds of Accounts Receivable constituting Collateral while held by the
U.S. Collateral Account Bank (or by any Grantor in trust for the benefit of the U.S. Collateral
Agent and the other Secured Parties) shall continue to be collateral security for all of the
Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as hereinafter provided. At any
time when an Event of Default specified in subsection 9(a) of the Credit Agreement has occurred and
is continuing, at the U.S. Collateral Agent’s election, each of the U.S. Collateral Agent and the
U.S. Administrative Agent may apply all or any part of the funds on deposit in the U.S. Collateral
Proceeds Account established by the relevant Grantor to the payment of the Obligations of such
Grantor then due and owing, such application to be made as set forth in subsection 6.5 hereof. So
long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the funds on deposit in the U.S.
Collateral Proceeds Account shall be remitted as provided in subsection 6.1(d) hereof.

29

 

          (c) At any time and from time to time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default specified in subsection 9(a) of the Credit Agreement, at the U.S. Collateral
Agent’s request, each Grantor shall deliver to the U.S. Collateral Agent copies or, if required by
the U.S. Collateral Agent for the enforcement thereof or foreclosure thereon, originals of all
documents held by such Grantor evidencing, and relating to, the agreements and transactions which
gave rise to such Grantor’s Accounts Receivable constituting Collateral, including, without
limitation, all statements relating to such Grantor’s Accounts Receivable constituting Collateral
and all orders, invoices and shipping receipts.

          (d) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the U.S. Collateral Agent
shall instruct the U.S. Collateral Account Bank to promptly remit any funds on deposit in each
Grantor’s U.S. Collateral Proceeds Account to such Grantor’s General Fund Account. In the event
that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the U.S. Collateral Agent and the Grantors
agree that the U.S. Collateral Agent, at its option, may require that each U.S. Collateral Proceeds
Account and the General Funds Account of each Grantor be established at the U.S. Collateral Agent.
Each Grantor shall have the right, at any time and from time to time, to withdraw such of its own
funds from its own General Fund Account, and to maintain such balances in its General Fund Account,
as it shall deem to be necessary or desirable.

     Section 6.2. Communications with Obligors; Grantors Remain Liable. (a) The U.S.
Collateral Agent in its own name or in the name of others, may at any time and from time
to time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default specified in
subsection 9(a) of the Credit Agreement, communicate with obligors under the Accounts Receivable
constituting Collateral and parties to the Contracts (in each case, to the extent constituting
Collateral) to verify with them to the U.S. Collateral Agent’s satisfaction the existence, amount
and terms of any Accounts Receivable or Contracts.

          (b) Upon the request of the U.S. Collateral Agent at any time after the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default specified in subsection 9(a) of the Credit Agreement, each
Grantor shall notify obligors on such Grantor’s Accounts Receivable and parties to such Grantor’s
Contracts (in each case, to the extent constituting Collateral) that such Accounts Receivable and
such Contracts have been assigned to the U.S. Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured
Parties, and that payments in respect thereof shall be made directly to the U.S. Collateral Agent.

          (c) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Grantor shall remain liable under
each of such Grantor’s Accounts Receivable 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. None of the U.S. Collateral Agent, the U.S. Administrative Agent or
any other Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under any Account Receivable (or any
agreement giving rise thereto) by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the
U.S. Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party of any payment relating thereto, nor shall the
U.S. Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party be obligated in any manner to perform any of the
obligations of any Grantor under or pursuant to any Account Receivable (or any agreement giving
rise thereto) 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

30

 

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 6.3. Pledged Stock. (a) Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing and the U.S. Collateral Agent shall have given notice to the relevant Pledgor of the
U.S. Collateral Agent’s intent to exercise its corresponding rights pursuant to subsection 6.3(b),
each Pledgor shall be permitted to receive all cash dividends and distributions paid in respect of
the Pledged Stock (subject to the last two sentences of subsection 5.3.1 of this Agreement) and all
payments made in respect of the Pledged Notes, to the extent permitted in the Credit Agreement, and
to exercise all voting and corporate rights with respect to the Pledged Stock; provided,
however, that no vote shall be cast or corporate right exercised or such other action taken
(other than in connection with a transaction expressly permitted by the Credit Agreement) which, in
the U.S.

     Collateral Agent’s reasonable judgment, would materially impair the Pledged Stock or the related
rights or remedies of the Secured Parties or which would be inconsistent with or result in any
violation of any provision of the Credit Agreement, this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

          (b) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the U.S. Collateral Agent shall
give notice of its intent to exercise such rights to the relevant Pledgor or Pledgors, (i) the U.S.
Collateral Agent shall have the right to receive any and all cash dividends, payments or other
Proceeds paid in respect of the Pledged Stock and make application thereof to the Obligations of
the relevant Pledgor in such order as is provided in subsection 6.5 and (ii) any or all of the
Pledged Stock shall be registered in the name of the U.S. Collateral Agent or its nominee, as
applicable, may thereafter exercise (x) all voting, corporate and other rights pertaining to such
Pledged Stock at any meeting of shareholders of the relevant Issuer or Issuers or otherwise and (y)
any and all rights of conversion, exchange, subscription and any other rights, privileges or
options pertaining to such Pledged Stock as if it were the absolute owner thereof (including,
without limitation, the right to exchange at its discretion any and all of the Pledged Stock upon
the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other fundamental change in the
corporate structure of any Issuer, or upon the exercise by the relevant Pledgor or the U.S.
Collateral Agent, of any right, privilege or option pertaining to such Pledged Stock, and in
connection therewith, the right to deposit and deliver any and all of the Pledged Stock with any
committee, depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and
conditions as the U.S. Collateral Agent may reasonably determine), all without liability (other
than for its gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined in a final non-appealable
decision issued by a court of competent jurisdiction) except to account for property actually
received by it, but the U.S. Collateral Agent shall have no duty, to any Pledgor to exercise any
such right, privilege or option and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in
so doing, provided that the U.S. Collateral Agent, shall not exercise any voting or other
consensual rights pertaining to the Pledged Stock in any way that would constitute an exercise of
the remedies described in subsection 6.6 other than in accordance with subsection 6.6.

          (c) Each Pledgor hereby authorizes and instructs each Issuer or maker of any Pledged
Securities pledged by such Pledgor hereunder to (i) comply with any instruction received by it from
the U.S. Collateral Agent in writing that (x) states that an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing and (y) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this

31

 

Agreement, without any other or further instructions from such Pledgor, and each Pledgor agrees
that each Issuer or maker shall be fully protected in so complying and (ii) unless otherwise
expressly permitted hereby, pay any dividends or other payments with respect to the Pledged
Securities directly to the U.S. Collateral Agent.

     Section 6.4. Proceeds to be Turned Over To U.S. Collateral Agent. In addition to the
rights of the U.S. Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties specified in subsection 6.1 with
respect to payments of Accounts Receivable constituting Collateral, if an Event of Default shall
occur and be continuing, and the U.S. Collateral Agent shall have instructed any Grantor to do so,
all Proceeds of Collateral received by such Grantor consisting of cash, checks and other Cash
Equivalent items shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the U.S. Collateral Agent and the other
Secured Parties hereto or the Secured Parties (as defined in the First Lien Last Out Collateral
Agreement) as applicable, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, forthwith upon
receipt by such Grantor, be turned over to the U.S. Collateral Agent (or its agent appointed for
purposes of perfection) in the exact form received by such Grantor (duly indorsed by such Grantor
to the U.S. Collateral Agent if required). All Proceeds of Collateral received by the U.S.
Collateral Agent hereunder shall be held by the U.S. Collateral Agent in the relevant U.S.
Collateral Proceeds Account maintained under its sole dominion and control. All Proceeds of
Collateral while held by the U.S. Collateral Agent in such U.S. Collateral Proceeds Account (or by
the relevant Grantor in trust for the U.S. Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties) shall
continue to be held as collateral security for all the Obligations of such Grantor and shall not
constitute payment thereof until applied as provided in subsection 6.5.

     Section 6.5. Application of Proceeds. It is agreed that if an Event of Default shall
occur and be continuing, any and all Proceeds of the relevant Granting Party’s Collateral (as
defined in the Credit Agreement) received by the U.S. Collateral Agent (whether from the relevant
Granting Party or otherwise) shall be held by the U.S. Collateral Agent for the benefit of the
Secured Parties as collateral security for the Obligations of the relevant Granting Party (whether
matured or unmatured), and/or then or at any time thereafter may, in the sole discretion of the
U.S. Collateral Agent, be applied by the U.S. Collateral Agent as follows:

     (a) first, to
the payment of all amounts owing the U.S. Collateral Agent for (i) any amounts advanced by the U.S.
Collateral Agent in order to preserve the Collateral or preserve its security interest in the
Collateral, (ii) in the event of the enforcement of any indebtedness, obligations, or liabilities
of any Grantor, after an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the reasonable
expenses of retaking, holding, preparing for sale or lease, selling or otherwise disposing of or
realizing on the Collateral, or of any exercise by the U.S. Collateral Agent of its rights
hereunder, together with reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs and (iii) all amounts paid to
which the U.S. Collateral Agent has the right to reimbursement under subsection 9.4;

     (b)
second, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding
clause (a), to the payment of all amounts owing to any Agent pursuant to any of the Loan Documents
in its capacity as such;

     (c) third, but subject to the provisions of the following
subclauses 6.5.6 and 6.5.7, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the

paid to the Secured Parties as provided in subsection 6.5.2 hereof, with each Secured Party
receiving an amount equal to its outstanding Primary U.S. Borrower Obligations or, if the proceeds
are insufficient to pay in full all such Primary U.S. Borrower Obligations, its Pro Rata Share of
the amount remaining to be distributed;

     (d) fourth, but subject to the provisions of the
following subclauses 6.5.6 and 6.5.7, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant
to the preceding clauses (a) through (c), an amount equal to the outstanding Primary Canadian
Borrower Obligations shall be paid to the Secured Parties as provided in subsection 6.5.2 hereof,
with each Secured Party receiving an amount equal to its outstanding Primary Canadian Borrower
Obligations or, if the proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all such Primary Canadian Borrower
Obligations, its Pro Rata Share of the amount remaining to be distributed;

     (e) fifth, but
subject to the provisions of subclauses 6.5.6 and 6.5.7, to the extent proceeds remain after the
application pursuant to the preceding clauses (a) through (d), inclusive, an amount equal to the
outstanding Secondary U.S. Borrower Obligations shall be paid to the Secured Parties as provided in
subsection 6.5.2 hereof, with each Secured Party receiving an amount equal to its outstanding
Secondary U.S. Borrower Obligations or, if the proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all such
Secondary U.S. Borrower Obligations, its Pro Rata Share of the amount remaining to be distributed;

     (f) sixth, but subject to the provisions of subclauses 6.5.6 and 6.5.7, to the extent
proceeds remain after the application pursuant to preceding clauses (a) through (e), inclusive, an
amount equal to the outstanding Secondary Canadian Borrower Obligations shall be paid to the
Secured Parties as provided in subsection 6.5.2 hereof, with each Secured Party receiving an amount
equal to its outstanding Secondary Canadian Borrower Obligations or, if the proceeds are
insufficient to pay in full all such Secondary Canadian Borrower Obligations, its Pro Rata Share of
the amount remaining to be distributed;

     (g) seventh, but subject to the provisions of
subclauses 6.5.6 and 6.5.7, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to
preceding clauses (a) through (f), inclusive, ratably to any then remaining unpaid Obligations; and

     (h) eighth, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding
clauses (a) through (g), inclusive, and following the termination of this Agreement, to the
relevant Grantor or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to such surplus.

          6.5.2 For purposes of this Agreement, (i) “Pro Rata Share” shall mean, when calculating a
Secured Party’s portion of any distribution or amount, that amount (expressed as a percentage)
equal to a fraction the numerator of which is the then unpaid amount of such Secured Party’s
Primary U.S. Borrower Obligations, Primary Canadian Borrower Obligations, Secondary U.S. Borrower
Obligations or Secondary Canadian Borrower Obligations, as the case may be, and the denominator of
which is the then outstanding amount of all Primary U.S. Borrower

33

 

Obligations, Primary Canadian Borrower Obligations, Secondary U.S. Borrower Obligations or
Secondary Canadian Borrower Obligations, as the case may be, (ii) “Primary Obligations”
shall mean (x) in the case of the Loan Document Obligations, all unpaid principal of, premium, if
any, fees and interest on, all Loans, all Reimbursement Obligations and all fees and expenses due
and owing pursuant to the Credit Agreement and (y) in the case of the Other Obligations, all
amounts due under each Interest Rate Protection Agreement or Permitted Hedging Arrangement with an
Other Creditor (other than indemnities, fees (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) and
similar obligations and liabilities), (iii) “Secondary Obligations” shall mean all
Obligations other than Primary Obligations, (iv) “Primary U.S. Borrower Obligations” shall

Obligations” shall mean all Secondary Obligations which are also Canadian Borrower Obligations.

          6.5.3 Each of the Secured Parties, by their acceptance of the benefits hereof and of the other
Security Documents, agrees and acknowledges that if the Lender Creditors receive a distribution on
account of undrawn amounts with respect to Letters of Credit issued under the Credit Agreement
(which shall only occur after all Loans and Reimbursement Obligations constituting Primary U.S.
Borrower Obligations or Primary Canadian Borrower Obligations, as the case may be, have been paid
in full), such amounts shall be paid to the U.S. Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement
and held by it, for the benefit of the respective Lender Creditors, as cash security for the
repayment of Obligations owing to the Lender Creditors as such. If any amounts are held as cash
security pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, then upon the termination of all
outstanding Letters of Credit under the Credit Agreement constituting Primary U.S. Borrower
Obligations or Primary Canadian Borrower Obligations, as the case may be, and after the application
of all such cash security to the repayment of all Obligations owing to the respective Lender
Creditors after giving effect to the termination of all such Letters of Credit, if there remains
any excess cash, such excess cash shall be returned by the U.S. Administrative Agent to the U.S.
Collateral Agent for distribution in accordance with provisions set forth above in this subsection
6.5.

          6.5.4 All payments required to be made hereunder shall be made (x) if to the Lender Creditors,
to the U.S. Administrative Agent for the account of the Lender Creditors and (y) if to the Other
Creditors, to the trustee, paying agent or other similar representative (each, a
“Representative”) for the Other Creditors or, in the absence of such a Representative,
directly to the Other Creditors.

          6.5.5 For purposes of applying payments received in accordance with this subsection 6.5, the
U.S. Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon (i) the Administrative Agents and (ii) the
Representative or, in the absence of such a Representative, upon the Other Creditors for a
determination (which the Administrative Agents, each Representative and the Other Creditors agree
(or shall agree) to provide upon request of the U.S. Collateral
Agent) of the outstanding Primary U.S. Borrower Obligations, Primary Canadian Borrower Obligations,
Secondary Canadian Borrower Obligations and Secondary Canadian Borrower Obligations owed to the
Lender Creditors or the Other Creditors, as the case may be. Unless it has received written notice
from a Lender Creditor or an Other Creditor to the contrary, the Administrative Agents

34

 

and each Representative, in furnishing information pursuant to the preceding sentence, and the U.S.
Collateral Agent, in acting hereunder, shall be entitled to assume that no Secondary Obligations
are outstanding. Unless it has written notice from an Other Creditor to the contrary, the U.S.
Collateral Agent, in acting hereunder, shall be entitled to assume that no Interest Rate Protection
Agreements or Permitted Hedging Arrangements with an Other Creditor are in existence.

          6.5.6 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, to the extent monies or
proceeds to be applied pursuant to this subsection 6.5 consist of proceeds received as
distributions on or from a sale or other disposition of Excess Foreign Subsidiary Capital Stock,
such proceeds will be applied as otherwise required above in this subsection 6.5, but for this
purpose treating the outstanding Obligations (including both Primary Obligations and Secondary
Obligations) as only those obligations secured by the Excess Foreign Subsidiary Capital Stock in
accordance with the provisions of clause (x) to the proviso appearing at the end of subsection 3.1
hereof.

          6.5.7 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, to the extent monies or
proceeds to be applied pursuant to this subsection 6.5 consist of proceeds received under any
Canadian Security Document, such proceeds will be applied as otherwise required above in this
subsection 6.5, but for this purpose (i) reversing clauses (c) and (d) above (thereby treating
clause (d) as if it were the third priority of distribution, and treating clause (c) as if it were
the fourth priority of distribution) and reversing clauses (e) and (f) above (thereby treating
clause (f) above as if it were the fifth priority of distribution and treating clause (e) above as
if it were the sixth priority distribution), in each case mutatis mutandis and with
any necessary reference changes (to clauses, etc.) and (ii) treating the outstanding Obligations
(including Primary Obligations and Secondary Obligations) as only those obligations secured by the
respective Canadian Security Document.

          6.5.8 It is understood that the Grantors shall remain jointly and severally liable to the
extent of any deficiency between the amount of the proceeds of the Collateral and the aggregate
amount of the Obligations.

     Section 6.6. Code and Other Remedies. If an Event of Default shall occur and be
continuing, the U.S. Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, may exercise, in addition
to all other rights and remedies granted to them in this Agreement and in any
other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Obligations to the extent
permitted by applicable law, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code, under any
other applicable law and in equity. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the extent
permitted by applicable law, the U.S. Collateral 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 Granting Party 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 the Security Collateral, or any part
thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise
dispose of and deliver the Security Collateral or any part thereof (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 U.S. Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party or elsewhere upon such

35

 

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 risk. The U.S. Collateral Agent
or any other Secured Party shall have the right, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such sale
or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Security Collateral so sold, free of any right
or equity of redemption in such Granting Party, which right or equity is hereby waived and
released. Each Granting Party further agrees, at the U.S. Collateral Agent’s request, to assemble
the Security Collateral and make it available to the U.S. Collateral Agent at places which the U.S.
Collateral Agent shall reasonably select, whether at such Granting Party’s premises or elsewhere.
The U.S. Collateral Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this
subsection 6.6, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred in
connection therewith or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Security Collateral or
in any way relating to the Security Collateral or the rights of the U.S. Collateral Agent and the
other Secured Parties hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and
disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations of the relevant Granting Party
then due and owing, in the order of priority specified in subsection 6.5 above, and only after such
application and after the payment by the U.S. Collateral Agent of any other amount required by any
provision of law, including, without limitation, Section 9-615(a)(3) of the Code, need the U.S.
Collateral Agent account for the surplus, if any, to such Granting Party. To the extent permitted
by applicable law, (i) such Granting Party waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire
against the U.S. Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party arising out of the repossession,
retention or sale of the Security Collateral, other than any such claims, damages and demands that
may arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any of the U.S. Collateral Agent or
such other Secured Party (in each case as determined in a final non-appealable decision issued by a
court of competent jurisdiction) and (ii) if
any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Security 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 6.7. Registration Rights. (a) If the U.S. Collateral Agent shall determine to
exercise its right to sell any or all of the Pledged Stock pursuant to subsection 6.6, and if in
the reasonable opinion of the U.S. Collateral Agent it is necessary or reasonably advisable to have
the Pledged Stock (other than Pledged Stock of Special Purpose Subsidiaries), or that portion
thereof to be sold, registered under the provisions of the Securities Act, the relevant Pledgor
will use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Issuer thereof to (i) execute and deliver, and
use its best efforts to 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
reasonable opinion of the U.S. Collateral Agent, necessary or advisable to register such Pledged
Stock, or that portion thereof to be sold, under the provisions of the Securities Act, (ii) use its
reasonable best efforts to cause the registration statement relating thereto to become effective
and to remain effective for a period of not more than one year from the date of the first public
offering of such Pledged Stock, or that portion thereof to be sold and (iii) make all amendments
thereto and/or to the related prospectus which, in the reasonable opinion of the Collateral 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. Such Pledgor
agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Issuer to comply with the provisions of the
securities or “Blue Sky” laws of any and all states and the District of Columbia that the U.S.
Collateral Agent shall reasonably designate and to make available to its security

36

 

holders, as soon as practicable, an earnings statement (which need not be audited) that will
satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act.

          (b) Such Pledgor recognizes
that the U.S. Collateral Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all such Pledged
Stock, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state
securities laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof
to a restricted group of purchasers which will 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. Such Pledgor 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, to the extent permitted by applicable law, agrees that any such private sale
shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. The U.S. Collateral Agent
shall not be under any obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Stock 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) Such Pledgor agrees to use its reasonable 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 such Pledged
Stock pursuant to this subsection 6.7 valid and binding and in compliance with any and all other
applicable Requirements of Law. Such Pledgor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants
contained in this subsection 6.7 will cause irreparable injury to the U.S. Collateral Agent and the
Lenders, that the U.S. Collateral Agent and the Lenders have no adequate remedy at law in respect
of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this subsection 6.7
shall be specifically enforceable against such Pledgor, and to the extent permitted by applicable
law, such Pledgor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for
specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred
or is continuing under the Credit Agreement.

     Section 6.8. Waiver; Deficiency. Each Granting Party shall remain liable for any
deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Security Collateral are
insufficient to pay in full, the Loans, Reimbursement Obligations constituting Obligations of such
Granting Party and, to the extent then due and owing, all other Obligations of such Granting Party
and the reasonable fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the U.S. Collateral Agent or
any other Secured Party to collect such deficiency.

ARTICLE VII

The Collateral Agent

     Section 7.1. U.S. Collateral Agent’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact, etc. (a) Each
Granting Party hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the U.S. Collateral Agent and any
authorized 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 Granting
Party and in the name of such Granting Party or in its own name, for the purpose of carrying out
the terms of this Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all
documents and instruments that may be reasonably necessary or desirable to accomplish the

37

 

purposes of this Agreement to the extent permitted by applicable law, provided that the
U.S. Collateral Agent agrees not to exercise such power except upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Event of Default. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, at any time
when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (in each
case to the extent permitted by applicable law), (x) each Pledgor hereby gives the U.S. Collateral
Agent the power and right, on behalf of such Pledgor, without notice or assent by such Pledgor, to
execute, in connection with any sale provided for in subsection 6.6 or 6.7, any endorsements,
assessments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to such Pledgor’s Pledged
Collateral and (y) each Grantor hereby gives the U.S. Collateral Agent the power and right, on
behalf of such Grantor, without notice to or assent by such Grantor, to do any or all of the
following:

     (i) in the name of such Grantor or its own name, or otherwise, take possession of and
indorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of
moneys due under any Account Receivable of such Grantor that constitutes Collateral or with respect
to any other Collateral of such Grantor and file any claim or take any other action or institute
any proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the U.S. Collateral
Agent for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due under any Account Receivable of
such Grantor that constitutes Collateral or with respect to any other Collateral of such Grantor
whenever payable;

     (ii) in the case of any Copyright, Patent, or Trademark constituting Collateral
of such Grantor, execute and deliver any and all agreements, instruments, documents and papers as
the U.S. Collateral Agent may reasonably request to such Grantor to evidence the U.S. Collateral
Agent’s and the Lenders’ security interest in such Copyright, Patent, or Trademark and the goodwill
and general intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby;

     (iii) pay or
discharge taxes and Liens, other than Liens permitted under this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents, levied or placed on the Collateral of such Grantor, effect any repairs or any insurance
called for by the terms of this Agreement and pay all or any part of the premiums therefor and the
costs thereof; and

     (iv) (A) direct any party liable for any payment under any of the Collateral of
such Grantor to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to the
U.S. Collateral Agent or as the U.S. Collateral Agent shall direct; (B) ask or demand for, collect,
receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become
due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral of such Grantor; (C) sign and
indorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills of lading, storage or warehouse receipts,
drafts against debtors, assignments, verifications, notices and other documents in connection with
any of the Collateral of such Grantor; (D) commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings
at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral of such
Grantor or any portion thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral of such
Grantor; (E) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against such Grantor with respect to any
Collateral of such Grantor; (F) settle, compromise or adjust any such suit, action or proceeding
described in clause (E) above and, in connection therewith, to give

38

 

such discharges or releases as the U.S. Collateral Agent may deem appropriate; (G) subject to any
existing reserved rights or licenses, assign any Copyright, Patent or
Trademark constituting Collateral of such Grantor (along with the goodwill of the business to which
any such Copyright, Patent or Trademark pertains), for such term or terms, on such conditions, and
in such manner, as the U.S. Collateral Agent shall in its sole discretion determine; and (H)
generally, sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any
of the Collateral of such Grantor as fully and completely as though the U.S. Collateral Agent were
the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and do, at the U.S. Collateral Agent’s option and such
Grantor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the U.S. Collateral
Agent deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral of such Grantor and the
U.S. Collateral 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.

          (b) The reasonable expenses of the U.S. Collateral Agent incurred in connection with actions
undertaken as provided in this subsection 7.1, 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 ABR Loans that are
U.S. RCF Loans under the Credit Agreement, from the date of payment by the U.S. Collateral Agent to
the date reimbursed by the relevant Granting Party, shall be payable by such Granting Party to the
U.S. Collateral Agent on demand.

          (c) Each Granting Party hereby ratifies all that said attorney 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 as to the relevant Granting Party until this Agreement
is terminated as to such Granting Party, and the security interests in the Security Collateral of
such Granting Party created hereby are released.

     Section 7.2. Duty of U.S. Collateral Agent. The U.S. Collateral Agent’s sole duty with
respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Security Collateral in its
possession, under Section 9-207 of the Code or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same
manner as the U.S. Collateral Agent deals with similar property for its own account. None of the
U.S. Collateral Agent or 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 of the
Security Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or
otherwise dispose of any Security Collateral upon the request of any Granting Party or any other
Person or, except as otherwise provided herein, to take any other action whatsoever with regard to
the Security Collateral or any part thereof. The powers conferred on the U.S. Collateral Agent and
the other Secured Parties hereunder are solely to protect the U.S. Collateral Agent’s and the other
Secured Parties’ interests in the Security Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the U.S.
Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to exercise any such powers. The U.S. Collateral 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 officers, directors,
employees or agents shall be responsible to any Granting Party for any act or failure to act
hereunder, except as otherwise provided herein or for their own gross negligence or willful
misconduct (as determined in a final non-appealable decision issued by a court of competent
jurisdiction).

39

 

     Section 7.3. Financing Statements. Pursuant to any applicable law, each Granting Party
authorizes the U.S. Collateral Agent to file or record financing statements and other filing or
recording documents or instruments with respect to such Granting Party’s Security Collateral
without the signature of such Granting Party in such form and in such filing offices as the U.S.
Collateral Agent reasonably determines appropriate to perfect the security interests of the U.S.
Collateral Agent under this Agreement. Each Granting Party authorizes the U.S. Collateral Agent to
use any collateral description determined by the U.S. Collateral Agent, including, without
limitation, the collateral description “all personal property” or “all assets” in any such
financing statements.

     Section 7.4. Authority of U.S. Collateral Agent. Each Granting Party acknowledges that
the rights and responsibilities of the U.S. Collateral Agent under this Agreement with respect to
any action taken by the U.S. Collateral Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the U.S.
Collateral Agent of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided
for herein or resulting or arising out of this Agreement or any amendment, supplement or other
modification of this Agreement shall, as between the U.S. Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties,
be governed by the Credit Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist
from time to time among them, but, as between the U.S. Collateral Agent and the Granting Parties,
the U.S. Collateral Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Secured
Parties with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and no Granting Party shall
be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority.

     Section 7.5. Right of Inspection. Upon reasonable written advance notice to any
Grantor and as often as may reasonably be desired, or at any time and from time to time after the
occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the U.S. Collateral Agent shall have
reasonable access during normal business hours to all the books, correspondence and records of such
Grantor, and the U.S. Collateral Agent and its representatives may examine the same, and to the
extent reasonable take extracts therefrom and make photocopies thereof, and such Grantor agrees to
render to the U.S. Collateral Agent at such Grantor’s reasonable cost and expense, such clerical
and other assistance as may be reasonably requested with regard thereto. The U.S. Collateral Agent
and its representatives shall also have the right, upon reasonable advance written notice to such
Grantor subject to any lease restrictions, to enter during normal business hours into and upon any
premises owned, leased or operated by such Grantor where any of such Grantor’s Inventory or
Equipment is located for the purpose of inspecting the same, observing its use or otherwise
protecting its interests therein.

ARTICLE VIII

Non-Lender Secured Parties

          Section 8.1. Rights to Collateral. (a) The Non-Lender Secured Parties shall not have
any right whatsoever to do any of the following: (i) exercise any rights or remedies with respect
to the Collateral (such term, as used in this Article 8, having the meaning assigned to it
in the Credit Agreement), including, without limitation, the right to (A) enforce any Liens or sell
or otherwise foreclose on any portion of the Collateral, (B) request any action, institute any
proceedings, exercise any voting rights, give any instructions, make any election, notice account

40

 

debtors or make collections with respect to all or any portion of the Collateral or (C) release any
Guarantor under this Agreement or release any Collateral from the Liens of any Security Document or
consent to or otherwise approve any such release; (ii) demand, accept or obtain any Lien on any
Collateral (except for Liens arising under, and subject to the terms of, this Agreement); (iii)
vote in any Bankruptcy Case or similar proceeding in respect of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries
(any such proceeding, for purposes of this clause (a), a “Bankruptcy”) with respect to, or
take any other actions concerning the Collateral; (iv) receive any proceeds from any sale, transfer
or other disposition of any of the Collateral (except in accordance with this Agreement); (v)
oppose any sale, transfer or other disposition of the Collateral; (vi) object to any
debtor-in-possession financing in any Bankruptcy which is provided by one or more Lenders among
others (including on a priming basis under Section 364(d) of the Bankruptcy Code); (vii) object to
the use of cash collateral in respect of the Collateral in any Bankruptcy; or (viii) seek, or
object to the Lenders seeking on an equal and ratable basis, any adequate protection or relief from
the automatic stay with respect to the Collateral in any Bankruptcy.

          (b) Each Non-Lender Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement and the
other Security Documents, agrees that in exercising rights and remedies with respect to the
Collateral, the U.S. Collateral Agent and the Lenders, with the consent of the U.S. Collateral
Agent, may enforce the provisions of the Security Documents and exercise remedies thereunder and
under any other Loan Documents (or refrain from enforcing rights and exercising remedies), all in
such order and in such manner as they may determine in the exercise of their sole business
judgment. Such exercise and enforcement shall include, without limitation, the rights to collect,
sell, dispose of or otherwise realize upon all or any part of the Collateral, to incur expenses in
connection with such collection, sale, disposition or other realization and to exercise all the
rights and remedies of a secured lender under the Uniform Commercial Code of any applicable
jurisdiction. The Non-Lender Secured Parties by their acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement
and the other Security Documents hereby agree not to contest or otherwise challenge any such
collection, sale, disposition or other realization of or upon all or any of the Collateral. Whether
or not a Bankruptcy Case has been commenced, the Non-
Lender Secured Parties shall be deemed to have consented to any sale or other disposition of any
property, business or assets of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries and the release of any or all
of the Collateral from the Liens of any Security Document in connection therewith.

          (c) Notwithstanding any provision of this subsection 8.1, the Non-Lender Secured Parties shall
be entitled to file any necessary responsive or defensive pleadings in opposition to any motion,
claim, adversary proceeding or other pleadings (A) in order to prevent any Person from seeking to
foreclose on the Collateral or supersede the Non-Lender Secured Parties’ claim thereto or (B) in
opposition to any motion, claim, adversary proceeding or other pleading made by any Person
objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of the claims of the Non-Lender Secured Parties.

          (d) Each Non-Lender Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefit of this Agreement, agrees
that the U.S. Collateral Agent and the Lenders may deal with the Collateral, including any
exchange, taking or release of Collateral, may change or increase the amount of the Borrower
Obligations and/or the Guarantor Obligations, and may release any Guarantor from its Obligations
hereunder, all without any liability or obligation (except as may be otherwise expressly provided
herein) to the Non-Lender Secured Parties.

41

 

     Section 8.2. Appointment of Agent. Each Non-Lender Secured Party, by its acceptance of
the benefits of this Agreement and the other Security Documents, shall be deemed irrevocably to
make, constitute and appoint the U.S. Collateral Agent, as agent under the Credit Agreement (and
all officers, employees or agents designated by the U.S. Collateral Agent) as such Person’s true
and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact, and in such capacity, the U.S. Collateral Agent shall have
the right, with power of substitution for the Non-Lender Secured Parties and in each such Person’s
name or otherwise, to effectuate any sale, transfer or other disposition of the Collateral. It is
understood and agreed that the appointment of the U.S. Collateral Agent as the agent and
attorney-in-fact of the Non-Lender Secured Parties for the purposes set forth herein is coupled
with an interest and is irrevocable. It is understood and agreed that the U.S. Collateral Agent has
appointed the U.S. Administrative Agent as its agent for purposes of perfecting certain of the
security interests created hereunder and for otherwise carrying out certain of its obligations
hereunder.

     Section 8.3. Waiver of Claims. To the maximum extent permitted by law, each Non-Lender
Secured Party waives any claim it might have against the U.S. Collateral Agent or the Lenders with
respect to, or arising out of, any action or failure to act or any error of judgment, negligence,
or mistake or oversight whatsoever on the part of the U.S. Collateral Agent or the Lenders or their
respective directors, officers, employees or
agents with respect to any exercise of rights or remedies under the Loan Documents or any
transaction relating to the Collateral (including, without limitation, any such exercise described
in subsection 8.1(b) above), except for any such action or failure to act which constitutes willful
misconduct or gross negligence of such Person. None of the U.S. Collateral Agent or any Lender or
any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to
demand, collect or realize upon any of the 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 Holdings,
any Subsidiary of Holdings, any Non-Lender Secured Party or any other Person or to take any other
action or forbear from doing so whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof,
except for any such action or failure to act which constitutes willful misconduct or gross
negligence of such Person (as determined in a final non-appealable decision by a court of competent
jurisdiction).

ARTICLE IX

Miscellaneous

     Section 9.1. Amendments in Writing. None of the terms or provisions of this Agreement
may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except by a written instrument executed
by each affected Granting Party and the U.S. Collateral Agent (acting at the directions of the
Required Lenders or, if required pursuant to Section 11.1 of the Credit Agreement, all of the
Lenders), provided that (a) any provision of this Agreement imposing obligations on any
Granting Party may be waived by the U.S. Collateral Agent in a written instrument executed by the
U.S. Collateral Agent (acting at the directions of the Required Lenders or, if required pursuant to
Section 11.1 of the Credit Agreement, all of the Lenders) and (b) notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in subsection 11.1 of the Credit Agreement, no such waiver and no such amendment or
modification shall amend, modify or waive the definition of “Secured Party” or subsection
6.5 if such waiver, amendment, or modification would adversely affect a Secured Party without the
written consent of each such affected Secured Party.

42

 

     Section 9.2. Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon the U.S. Collateral
Agent or any Granting Party hereunder shall be effected in the manner provided for in subsection
11.2 of the Credit Agreement; provided that any such notice, request or demand to or upon
any Guarantor shall be addressed to such Guarantor at its notice address set forth on Schedule
1, unless and until such Guarantor shall change such address by notice to the U.S. Collateral
Agent and the U.S. Administrative Agent given in accordance with subsection 11.2 of the Credit
Agreement.

     Section 9.3. No Waiver by Course of Conduct; Cumulative Remedies. None of the U.S.
Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party shall by any act (except by a written instrument
pursuant to subsection 9.1), 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 U.S. Collateral 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 U.S.
Collateral 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 which the U.S. Collateral 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.

     Section 9.4. Enforcement Expenses; Indemnification. (a) Each Guarantor jointly and
severally agrees to pay or reimburse each Secured Party and the U.S. Collateral Agent for all their
respective reasonable costs and expenses incurred in collecting against any Guarantor under the
guarantee contained in Article 2 or otherwise enforcing or preserving any rights under this
Agreement against such Guarantor and the other Loan Documents to which such Guarantor is a party,
including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Secured
Parties, the U.S. Collateral Agent and the U.S. Administrative Agent.

          (b) Each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to pay, and to save the U.S. Collateral Agent,
the U.S. Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties harmless from, (x) any and all
liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, any and all stamp, excise,
sales or other similar taxes which may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any
of the Security Collateral or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement and (y) any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to
the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement
(collectively, the “indemnified liabilities”), in each case to the extent the Parent
Borrower would be required to do so pursuant to subsection 11.5 of the Credit Agreement, and in any
event excluding any taxes or other indemnified liabilities arising from gross negligence or willful
misconduct of the U.S. Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party (as determined in a final
non-appealable decision by a court of competent jurisdiction).

          (c) The agreements in this subsection 9.4 shall survive repayment of the Obligations and all
other amounts payable under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

43

 

     Section 9.5. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall
inure to the benefit of the Granting Parties, the U.S. Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties and
their respective successors and assigns; provided that no Granting Party may assign,
transfer or delegate any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior
written consent of the U.S. Collateral Agent.

     Section 9.6. Set-Off. Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably authorizes each of the
Administrative Agent and the U.S. Collateral Agent and each other Secured Party at any time and
from time to time without notice to such Guarantor, any other Guarantor or any of the Borrowers,
any such notice being expressly waived by each Guarantor and by each Borrower, to the extent
permitted by applicable law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default
under subsection 9(a) of the Credit Agreement so long as any amount remains unpaid after it becomes
due and payable by such Guarantor hereunder, to set-off and appropriate and apply against any such
amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) (other than
the U.S. Collateral Proceeds Account), 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 the U.S. Collateral Agent, the U.S. Administrative Agent
or such other Secured Party to or for the credit or the account of such Guarantor, or any part
thereof in such amounts as the U.S. Collateral Agent, the U.S. Administrative Agent or such other
Secured Party may elect. The U.S. Collateral Agent, the U.S. Administrative Agent and each other
Secured Party shall notify such Guarantor promptly of any such set-off and the application made by
the U.S. Collateral Agent, the U.S. Administrative Agent or such other Secured Party of the
proceeds thereof; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the
validity of such set-off and application. The rights of the U.S. Collateral Agent, the U.S.
Administrative Agent and each other Secured Party under this subsection 9.6 are in addition to
other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) which the U.S.
Collateral Agent, the U.S. Administrative Agent or such other Secured Party may have.

     Section 9.7. 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.

     Section 9.8. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of
such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any
such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction; provided that, with respect to any
Pledged Stock issued by a Foreign Subsidiary, all rights, powers and remedies provided in this
Agreement may be exercised only to the extent that they do not violate any provision of any law,
rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority applicable to any such Pledged Stock or affecting
the legality, validity or enforceability of any of the provisions of this Agreement against the
Pledgor (such laws, rules or regulations, “Applicable Law”) and are intended to be limited
to the extent necessary so
that they will not render this Agreement invalid, unenforceable or not entitled to be recorded,
registered or filed under the provisions of any Applicable Law.

44

 

     Section 9.9. Section Headings. The Section headings used in this Agreement are for
convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction hereof or be taken into
consideration in the interpretation hereof.

     Section 9.10. Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the
entire agreement of the Granting Parties, the U.S. Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties
with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations
or warranties by the Granting Parties, the U.S. Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party
relative to subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other

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 non-exclusive general
jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York, the courts of the United States of America
located in the county of New York, and appellate courts from any thereof;

     (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;

     (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 such party at its address referred to in subsection 9.2 or at such other address of
which the U.S. Collateral Agent and the U.S.
Administrative Agent (in the case of any other party hereto) or the Parent Borrower (in the case of
the U.S. Collateral Agent and the U.S. 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 consequential or punitive damages.

     Section 9.13. Acknowledgments.
Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that:

45

 

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

     (b) none of the U.S. Collateral
Agent, the U.S. Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party has any fiduciary relationship with
or duty to any Guarantor arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other
Loan Documents, and the relationship between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the U.S.
Collateral Agent, the U.S. Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, on the other hand,
in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of creditor and debtor; and

     (c) no joint venture
is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby among the Secured Parties or among the Guarantors and the Secured
Parties.

     Section 9.14. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND
UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT
OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.

     Section 9.15. Additional Granting Parties. Each new Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower
that is required to become a party to this Agreement pursuant to subsection 7.9(b) of the Credit
Agreement shall become a Granting Party for all purposes of this Agreement upon execution and
delivery by such Subsidiary of an Assumption Agreement in the form of Annex 2 hereto. Each
existing Granting Party that is required to become a Pledgor with respect to Capital Stock of any
new Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower pursuant to subsection 7.9(b) of the Credit Agreement shall
become a Pledgor with respect thereto upon execution and delivery by such Granting Party of a
Supplemental Agreement substantially in the form of Annex 2 hereto.

     Section 9.16.
Releases. (a) At such time as the Loans, the Reimbursement Obligations and the other
Obligations then due and owing shall have been paid in full, the Commitments have been terminated
and no Letters of Credit shall be outstanding, all Security 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 U.S. Collateral Agent and each Granting Party hereunder shall
terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party, and all
rights to the Security Collateral shall revert to the Granting Parties. At the request and sole
expense of any Granting Party following any such termination, the U.S. Collateral Agent shall
deliver to such Granting Party any Security Collateral held by the U.S. Collateral Agent hereunder,
and execute and deliver to such Granting Party such documents (including without limitation UCC
termination statements) as such Granting Party shall reasonably request to evidence such
termination.

          (b) In connection with any sale or other disposition of Security Collateral permitted by the
Credit Agreement (other than any sale or disposition to another Grantor), the Lien pursuant to this
Agreement on such sold or disposed of Security Collateral shall be automatically released. In
connection with the sale or other disposition of all of the Capital Stock of any Guarantor (other
than to Holdings, the Parent Borrower or a Subsidiary of either) or the sale or other disposition
of Security Collateral (other than a sale or disposition to another Grantor) permitted under the
Credit

46

 

Agreement, the U.S. Collateral Agent shall, upon receipt from the Parent Borrower of a written
request for the release of such Guarantor from its Guarantee or the release of the Security
Collateral subject to such sale or other disposition, identifying such Guarantor or the relevant
Security Collateral 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
Parent Borrower stating that such transaction is in compliance with the Credit Agreement and the
other Loan Documents, execute and deliver to the relevant Granting Party (at the sole cost and
expense of such Granting Party and without representation or warranty of any kind) all releases or
other documents (including without limitation UCC termination statements) necessary or reasonably
desirable for the release of such Guarantee or the Liens created hereby on such Security
Collateral, as applicable, as such Granting Party may reasonably request.

     Section 9.17. Judgment. (a) If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it
is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in one currency into another currency, the parties
hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used
shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the U.S. Collateral Agent could
purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding the day on which
final judgment is given.

          (b) The obligations of any Guarantor in respect of this Agreement to the U.S. Collateral
Agent, for the benefit of each holder of Secured Obligations, shall, notwithstanding any judgment
in a currency (the “judgment currency”) other than the currency in which the sum originally
due to such holder is denominated (the “original currency”), be discharged only to the
extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the U.S. Collateral Agent of any sum adjudged
to be so due in the judgment currency, the U.S. Collateral Agent may in accordance with normal
banking procedures purchase the original currency with the judgment currency; if the amount of the
original currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such holder in the original
currency, such Guarantor agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to
indemnify the U.S. Collateral Agent for the benefit of such holder, against such loss, and if the
amount of the original currency so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to the U.S. Collateral
Agent, the U.S. Collateral Agent agrees to remit to the Parent Borrower, such excess.
This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and payment of the Obligations and
all other amounts payable hereunder.
