     WHEREAS, the parties hereto have entered into the Fourth Amended and Restated Intercreditor
and Lockbox Administration Agreement, dated as of June 30, 2005 (such agreement as amended,
modified, waived, supplemented or restated from time to time, the “Intercreditor
Agreement”) with respect to liens that attach to, and the administration of, the Remittances in
the Lockboxes and the Lockbox Accounts; and

     WHEREAS, the parties hereto are entering into this Agreement with the intent to, among other
things, (i) amend, restate and supercede in its entirety the Fourth Amended and Restated Three
Party Agreement Relating to Lockbox Services, dated as of November 25, 2003 (the “Existing
Agreement”), (ii) provide for the disposition of the net proceeds of the Remittances deposited
in the Lockboxes and the Lockbox Accounts, and (iii) provide the Financing Agents, including any
subsequent Financing Agents with continued “control” (as such term is used in Section 9-104 of the
Uniform Commercial Code as enacted in the State of New York (the “UCC”)), for the purpose
of perfecting and continuing the perfection of such Financing Agents’ security interests in
the Lockbox and the Lockbox Accounts under the UCC.

     NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are
here acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

     1. The Bank is hereby authorized:

          (a) to perform the lockbox service set forth herein (the “Lockbox Service”)
and to follow its usual operating procedures for the handling of any Check (as such term is defined
in the UCC), in accordance with the Standard Terms and Conditions attached hereto as Exhibit
A and incorporated herein, except as modified by this Agreement;

          (b) to charge the Lockbox Accounts for all returned Checks, service charges, and
other fees and charges associated with the Lockbox Service and this Agreement; and

          (c) to follow its usual procedures in the event the Lockbox Addresses, the Lockbox
Accounts or any Check should be or become the subject of any writ, levy, order or other similar
judicial or regulatory order or process.

     2. (a) The Bank will comply with instructions originated by the Requisite Financing
Agents (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) or an entity designated by them concerning the
Lockboxes and the Lockbox Accounts without further consent by the Lockbox Servicer (including,
without limitation, any instructions to pay over to the Financing Agents all available balances in
the Lockboxes and the Lockbox Accounts from time to time). Unless and until a Notice (as defined
below) is received by the Bank, the Bank may also comply with any instruction it receives from the
Lockbox Servicer concerning the Lockboxes and the Lockbox Accounts without further consent by the
Financing Agents (including, without limitation, making withdrawals from the Lockboxes and the
Lockbox Accounts); provided, that, the Bank will not comply with any instructions
to close any of the Lockboxes or any Lockbox Account without the prior written consent of each
Financing Agent. Within a reasonable period of time not to exceed two (2) Business Days after the
Bank’s receipt of written notice in the form of Attachment I (the

- 2 -

 

“Notice”), the
Bank shall no longer comply with instructions from the Lockbox Servicer with respect to the
Lockboxes and Lockbox Accounts, and within a reasonable period of time not to exceed five (5)
Business Days shall transfer all collected and available balances in the Lockbox Accounts to the
account specified in the written instructions in the Notice, provided, that such Notice shall only
specify one account to which the Bank shall send all such funds. “Business Day” means each Monday
through Friday, excluding bank holidays. Funds are not available if, in the reasonable
determination of the Bank, they are subject to a hold, dispute or legal process preventing their
withdrawal. Thereafter the Financing Agents shall have exclusive control of the Lockboxes and the
Lockbox Accounts unless and until the Financing Agents provide the Bank with notice to the contrary
in compliance with the notice requirements of Section 15 hereof. The Bank will not agree
with any other person to comply with instructions concerning the Lockboxes and the Lockbox Accounts
given by any person other than the Lockbox Servicer and/or the Requisite Financing Agents (or an
entity appointed by them).

          (b) The Bank shall have no responsibility or liability to the Financing Agents with
respect to the value of the Lockbox Accounts or any responsibility to limit, restrict or otherwise
monitor the withdrawal of funds from the Lockbox Accounts by the Company or the Lockbox Servicer
unless and until a Notice has been received by the Bank. This Agreement does not create any
obligation or duty of the Bank other than those expressly set forth herein. The Bank may rely on
notices and communications which do not conflict with the terms hereof that it reasonably believes
are given by the appropriate party. The Bank shall not be obligated to make any inquiry as to the
authority, capacity, existence or identity of any party purporting to give such notice or
instructions including, without limitation, whether any group of Financing Agents comprise the
Requisite Financing Agents (as represented in writing to the Bank) or the validity of the
designation of the authority designated to any entity or designated by the Requisite Financing
Agents or the Financing Agents pursuant to Section 23 or otherwise; provided that, notwithstanding
the foregoing, as a condition to any action to be taken hereunder the Bank shall be entitled to
require, at its sole option, a written certification with respect to any group’s authorization to
cause it to take any such actions and the Bank shall be entitled to, and fully protected in its
reliance on, any such certification.

     3. (a) If the balances in the Lockbox Accounts are not sufficient to pay the Bank
for any returned Check and the Originator has not paid the amounts payable in respect of such
returned Checks, each Financing Agent, as applicable, agrees to pay to the Bank on demand the
portion of any amounts received by such Financing Agent with respect to such returned Check.

          (b) If the balances in the Lockbox Accounts are not sufficient to compensate the
Bank for any fees or charges due the Bank in connection with the Lockbox Service or this Agreement,
the Originator agrees to pay the Bank on demand the amount due the Bank. The Originator will have
breached this Agreement if it has not paid the Bank, within five (5) Business Days after the
demand, the amount due the Bank.

          (c) The Originator hereby authorizes the Bank, without prior notice, from time to
time to debit any other account the Originator may have with the Bank for the amount or amounts due
from the Originator under subsection 3(a) or 3(b).

- 3 -

 

          (d) The Bank agrees it shall not have and shall not exercise any right of set-off
against the Lockbox Accounts, except as permitted under Section 1(b) of this Agreement,
until it has been advised in writing by each Financing Agent that all of the obligations owed to
such Financing Agent (and persons represented by such Financing Agent) and secured by the Checks
and the Lockbox Accounts are paid in full. The Financing Agents shall notify the Bank promptly in
writing upon payment in full of all such obligations and this Agreement shall automatically
terminate upon receipt of all such notices, provided, however, that Bank shall have
no obligation to confirm that the parties representing themselves in writing to the Bank as all of
the then existing Financing Agents, comprise all of the then existing Financing Agents.

     4. The Bank may terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice
to the Company, the Originator, the Lockbox Servicer and the Financing Agents and the transfer of
all amounts on deposit in the Lockbox Accounts to the account designated in writing by the
Requisite Financing Agents. The Financing Agents may terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30)
days’ prior written notice to the Company and the Bank. Neither the Company nor the Lockbox
Servicer may terminate this Agreement or the Lockbox Service except with (i) the written consent of
each Financing Agent and (ii) upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Bank and the
Financing Agents.

          (a) The Bank will not be liable to the Company, the Originator or the Financing
Agents for any expense, claim, loss, damage or cost (the “Damages”) arising out of or
relating to its performance under this Agreement other than those Damages which result directly
from its acts or omissions constituting negligence or willful misconduct.

          (b) In no event will the Bank or any Financing Agent be liable for any special,
indirect, exemplary or consequential damages, including but not limited to lost profits.

          (c) The Bank will be excused from failing to act or delay in acting, and no such
failure or delay shall constitute a breach of this Agreement or otherwise give rise to any
liability of the Bank, if (i) such failure or delay is caused by circumstances beyond the Bank’s
reasonable control, including but not limited to legal constraint, emergency conditions, action or
inaction of governmental, civil or military authority, fire, strike, lockout or other labor
dispute, war, riot, theft, flood, earthquake or other natural disaster, breakdown of public or
private or common carrier communications or transmission facilities, equipment failure, or act,
negligence or default of the Company, the Originator or the Financing Agents or (ii) such failure
or delay resulted from the Bank’s reasonable belief that the action would have violated any
guideline, rule or regulation of any governmental authority.

     5. The Originator shall indemnify the Bank against, and hold it harmless from, any
and all liabilities, claims, costs, expenses and damages of any nature (including but not limited
to allocated costs of staff counsel, other reasonable attorney’s fees and any fees and expenses
incurred in enforcing this Agreement) in any way arising out of or relating to disputes or legal
actions concerning the Bank’s provision of the Lockbox Service, this Agreement, any Check or the
Lockbox Addresses. This Section 5 does not apply to any cost or damage attributable to the
gross negligence or intentional misconduct of the Bank. The Originator’s obligations under this
Section 5 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

- 4 -

 

     6. (a) Each party hereto represents and warrants (each as to itself only) that: (i)
this Agreement constitutes its duly authorized, legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligation;
(ii) the performance of its obligations under this Agreement and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereunder will not (A) constitute or result in a breach of its
certificate or articles of incorporation, by-laws or partnership agreement, as applicable, or the
provisions of any material contract to which it is a party or by which it is bound or (B) result in
the violation of any law, regulation, judgment, decree or governmental order applicable to it; and
(iii) all approvals and authorizations required to permit the execution, delivery, performance and
consummation of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereunder have been obtained.

          (b) The Bank represents and warrants to the Company, the Originator, the Original
Servicer, the Lockbox Servicer and the Financing Agents that: (i) the Lockbox Accounts are held
with the Bank in the name of the Company; (ii) this Agreement constitutes its duly authorized,
legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligation; (iii) the Bank has not agreed (and will not
agree) with any party, other than the Company and the Financing Agents, to comply with instructions
concerning the Lockbox Accounts; and (iv) the Requisite Financing Agents are entitled to control
the Lockbox Accounts and to direct the Bank in the disposition of funds in the Lockbox Accounts,
without further consent of the Company, as provided in this Agreement.

          (c) Each of the parties hereto (each as to itself only) agrees that it shall be
deemed to make and renew each representation and warranty in subsections 6(a) and
(b), as applicable, on and as of each day on which it uses the Lockbox Service.

     7. The Company represents and warrants that it has not assigned or granted a
security interest in the Lockbox Accounts or any funds now or hereafter deposited in the Lockbox
Accounts, except as described in the Intercreditor Agreement.

     8. Each of the Company, the Originator, the Original Servicer, the Lockbox Servicer
and the Financing Agents (each as to itself only and solely in such capacity) agrees that it will
not permit the Lockbox and the Lockbox Accounts to become subject to any other pledge, assignment,
lien, charge or encumbrance of any kind, nature or description, other than as contemplated in the
Intercreditor Agreement (and/or as required pursuant to any commercial paper conduit’s
securitization program to the extent such commercial paper conduit is a party to any Financing
Document and the Financing Agent with respect thereto is a party to the Intercreditor Agreement)
and that following the Bank’s receipt of the Notice contemplated in Section 2 of this
Agreement, that each of the Company, the Originator, the Original Servicer and the Lockbox Servicer
(each as to itself only) agrees that it will not withdraw or attempt to withdraw any monies from
the Lockbox Accounts (other than as contemplated by the Intercreditor Agreement) until such time as
the Financing Agents advise the Bank in writing that the Financing Agents no longer claim any
interest in the Lockbox Accounts and the Remittances deposited therein.

     9. The Financing Agents acknowledge and agree that the Bank has the right to charge
the Lockbox Accounts from time to time for customary fees and expenses, as set forth in

- 5 -

 

Section
1(b) of this Agreement, and that the Financing Agents have no right to the monies so withdrawn
by the Bank.

     10. (a) Each business day, the Bank will send any Checks not processed in accordance
with its standard terms and conditions (which such standard terms and conditions are attached
hereto as Exhibit A) and set up documents as well as any other materials, such as invoices,
received at a Lockbox Address plus information regarding the deposit for the day to the address
specified below for the Company. The Lockbox Servicer (on behalf of the Company) shall promptly
provide a copy of the deposit advice to each of the Financing Agents.

          (b) The Bank will provide an original bank statement to the Company and the Company
(or the Lockbox Servicer on behalf of the Company) shall promptly provide a copy of such original
statement to each of the Financing Agents. Bank agrees to provide a copy of the statement to the
entity selected by the Financing Agents pursuant to Section 23 hereof.

     11. The Originator agrees to pay to the Bank, upon receipt of the Bank’s invoice,
all costs, expenses and attorneys’ fees (including allocated costs for in-house legal services)
incurred by the Bank in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement and any instrument or
agreement required hereunder, including but not limited to any such costs, expenses and fees
arising out of the resolution of any conflict, dispute, motion regarding entitlement to rights or
rights of action, or other action to enforce the Bank’s rights in a case arising under Title 11,
United States Code. The Originator agrees to pay the Bank, upon receipt of the Bank’s invoice, all
costs, expenses and attorneys’ fees (including allocated costs for in-house legal services)
incurred by the Bank in the preparation and administration of this Agreement (including any
amendments hereto or instruments or agreements required hereunder).

     12. Notwithstanding any of the other provisions in this Agreement, in the event of
the commencement of a case pursuant to Title 11, United States Code, filed by or against the
Company, or in the event of the commencement of any similar case under then applicable federal or
state law providing for the relief of debtors or the protection of creditors by or against the
Company, the Bank may act as the Bank deems necessary to comply with all applicable provisions of
governing statutes and shall be held harmless by the Company and/or the Originator from any claim
of any of the parties for so doing.

     13. No amendment or supplement to or modification of this Agreement and no waiver of
or consent to departure from any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be effective unless such
amendment, supplement, modification, waiver or consent is in writing and signed, in the case of an
amendment, supplement or modification, by each of the Financing Agents, the Lockbox Bank, the
Owner, the Originator, the Original Servicer and the Lockbox Servicer; provided, that after
delivery of a Notice to the Bank, then none of the Owner, the Originator, the Original Servicer
(only if it is still acting in such capacity and there has not been appointed a Successor Servicer
(as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement)) or the Lockbox Servicer shall need to be a party to
any amendment, supplement or modification that does not increase the liabilities or obligations of
such party hereunder or, in the case of any waiver or consent, by the party against which
enforcement of such waiver or consent is sought, and any such waiver or consent shall be effective
only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided,
further, that Bank shall have no obligation to confirm that the parties

- 6 -

 

representing
themselves in writing to the Bank as all of the then existing Financing Agents, comprise all of the
then existing Financing Agents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Bank’s charges are subject to
change by the Bank upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Company and the Financing
Agents. Prior to the execution of any such amendment, waiver or consent, the Originator and/or any
applicable Financing Agent shall furnish written notification of the substance of such amendment,
supplement, modification or consent, together with a copy thereof, to each rating agency to the
extent required pursuant to the respective Financing Documents.

     14. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (including by facsimile or other
electronic means); all such counterparts shall constitute but one and the same agreement.

     15. Any written notice or other written communication to be given under this
Agreement shall be addressed to each party at its address set forth on the signature page of this
Agreement or as set forth in the joinder agreement pursuant to which such entity became a party
hereto or to such other address as a party may specify in writing. Except as otherwise expressly
provided herein, any such notice shall be effective upon receipt.

     16. This Agreement controls in the event of any conflict between this Agreement and
any other document or written or oral statement, including the Intercreditor Agreement. This
Agreement supersedes all prior understandings, writings, proposals, representations and
communications, oral or written, of any party relating to the subject matter hereof, including the
Existing Agreement.

     17. The Company may not assign any of its rights under this Agreement without the
prior written consent of Bank and each Financing Agent.

     18. Nothing contained in the Agreement shall create any agency, fiduciary, joint
venture or partnership relationship between the parties hereto.

     19. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE
INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES (OTHER THAN
SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW), EXCEPT THAT MATTERS RELATING
TO THE PERFECTION OR EFFECT OF PERFECTION OR NONPERFECTION OF A SECURITY INTEREST IN THE LOCKBOXES
AND LOCKBOX ACCOUNTS SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF WHERE THE ACCOUNT IS MAINTAINED
TO THE EXTENT THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK DO NOT GOVERN SUCH MATTERS.

     20. The Bank hereby agrees not to institute or join any other person or entity in
instituting, any suit pursuant to Title 11, United States Code, or any similar suit or proceeding
under then applicable state or federal law providing for the relief of debtors or the protection of
creditors, against the Company prior to the date which is one year and one day (or, if longer, the
applicable preference period then in effect) after payment of all obligations of the Company to
each Financing Agent (and the parties for which it is acting as agent) are paid in full. This
section shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

- 7 -

 

     21. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the provisions of
this Agreement related to subsequent Financings, subsequent Financing Assets and subsequent
Financing Agents shall not become operative until the applicable subsequent Financing Agent shall
have executed and delivered to each of the parties hereto an executed counterpart to the joinder
agreement prescribed by Section 15 of the Intercreditor Agreement agreeing to be bound by all the
applicable terms and conditions hereof and of the Intercreditor Agreement.

     22. The Company hereby appoints the Originator as the Lockbox Servicer hereunder,
and hereby appoints and authorizes the Lockbox Servicer to act as its sole and exclusive agent to
act on behalf of the Company under this Agreement and hereby irrevocably authorizes Lockbox
Servicer, as agent for the Company, to take such action or to refrain from taking such action on
its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement. Until such time as Bank receives notice in
writing signed by each of the Company and the Lockbox Servicer or receives a Notice as provided for
herein, it shall be entitled to rely on all orders and instructions received by Lockbox Servicer
with respect to the Lockboxes and the Lockbox Accounts.

     23. At the request of the Bank, the Financing Agents and/or the Requisite Financing
Agents shall use their reasonable best efforts to appoint a single Financing Agent (or other
entity) to interact with the Bank in connection with this Agreement and/or the Intercreditor
Agreement. Upon such designation, the entity so designated shall promptly advise the Bank. Any
entity so designated may be removed at any time by the designation of a new entity by the Financing
Agents entitled to make any such designation and the Bank shall be promptly notified of any such
change. The Bank shall be entitled to rely, for all purposes, on any such designation made by the
Financing Agents or the Requisite Financing Agents and, until notice of a change of such designated
entity, shall be entitled to rely on instructions from any such designated entity as if delivered
by all of the Financing Agents or the Requisite Financing Agents, as applicable. The provisions of
this Section 23 do not change the substantive rights of the Financing Agents under this
Agreement in the Intercreditor Agreement and, any such designee would be required to obtain
specific instructions from the Requisite Financing Agents and all of the Financing Agents, as
applicable, unless greater authority had been delegated to such entity by the applicable group of
Financing Agents; instead these provisions are intended solely to facilitate the convenience and
certainty of the Financing Agents’ interaction with the Bank. If the Financing Agents and/or
Requisite Financing Agents are not able to agree on a single Financing Agent (or other entity) to
interact with the Bank, then the Financing Agents and/or Requisite Financing Agents agree that any
notices or other correspondence to the Bank shall be in writing signed by the Financing Agents
and/or Requisite Financing Agents, as applicable; provided, however, that Bank
shall have no obligation to confirm that the parties representing themselves in writing to the Bank
as all of the then existing Financing Agents or the Requisite Financing Agents, as applicable,
comprise all of the then existing Financing Agents or the Requisite Financing Agents, as
applicable.

EXHIBIT A

To Amended And Restated

Three Party Agreement

Relating To Lockbox Services

STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS

     The Lockbox Service involves processing Checks that are received at a Lockbox Address. With
this Service, Lockbox Servicer (on behalf of the Company) instructs its customers to mail checks it
wants to have processed under the Service to a Lockbox Address. Bank picks up mail at the Lockbox
Addresses according to its usual pick-up schedule. Bank will have unrestricted and exclusive
access to the mail directed to the Lockbox Addresses. Bank will provide Company with the Lockbox
Service for a Lockbox Address when Company has completed and Bank has received Bank’s then current
set-up documents for each Lockbox Address.

     If Bank receives any mail containing Company’s lockbox number at Bank’s lockbox operations
location (instead of a Lockbox Address), Bank may handle the mail as if it had been received at a
Lockbox Address.

     PROCESSING

     Bank will handle Checks received at the Lockbox Addresses according to the applicable deposit
account agreement, as if the Checks were delivered by Company to Bank for deposit to the Account,
except as modified by this Agreement.

     Bank will open the envelopes picked up from the Lockbox Addresses and remove the contents.
For the Lockbox Addresses, Checks and other documents contained in the envelopes will be inspected
and handled in the manner specified in the Company’s set-up documents. Bank captures and reports
information related to the lockbox processing, where available, if Company has specified this
option in the set-up documents. Bank will endorse all Checks Bank processes on Company’s behalf.

     If Bank processes an unsigned check as instructed in the set-up documents, and the check is
paid, but the account owner does not authorize payment, Company agrees to indemnify Bank, the
deposit bank (which may include Bank) and any intervening collecting bank for any liability or
expense incurred by such indemnitee due to the payment and collection of the check.

     If Company instructs Bank not to process a check bearing a handwritten or typed notation
“Payment in Full” or words of similar import on the face of the check, Company understands that
Bank has adopted procedures designed to detect Checks bearing such notations; however, Bank will
not be liable to Company or any other party for losses suffered if Bank fails to detect Checks
bearing such notations.

Fifth Amended and Restated

Three Party Agreement Relating to

Lockbox Services and Control

Exhibit A-1

 

     RETURNED CHECK

     Unless Company and Bank agree to another processing procedure, Bank will reclear a Check once
which has been returned and marked “Refer to Maker,” “Not Sufficient Funds” or “Uncollected Funds.”
If the Check is returned for any other reason or if the Check is returned a second time, Bank will
debit the applicable Account and return the Check to Company. Company agrees that Bank will not
send a returned item notice to Company for a returned Check unless Company and Bank have agreed
otherwise.

     ACCEPTABLE PAYEES

     For the Lockbox Addresses, Lockbox Servicer (on behalf of the Company) will provide to Bank
the names of Acceptable Payees (“Acceptable Payee” means Company’s name and any other payee
name provided to Bank by Company as an acceptable payee for Checks to be processed under the
Lockbox Service). Bank will process a check only if it is made payable to an Acceptable Payee and
if the check is otherwise processable. Company warrants that each Acceptable Payee has authorized
Checks payable to it to be credited to the Account Company
designates for the Lockbox Service. Bank may treat as an Acceptable Payee any variation of
any Acceptable Payee’s name that Bank deems to be reasonable.

     CHANGES TO PROCESSING INSTRUCTIONS

     Lockbox Servicer (on behalf of the Company) may request Bank orally or in writing to make
changes to the processing instructions (including changes to Acceptable Payees) for any Lockbox
Address by contacting its Bank representative, provided, Lockbox Servicer agrees to notify
the Financing Agents of any such changes, provided, further, Bank shall have no
obligation to ensure that the Financing Agents have been notified of any such requested changes.
Bank will not be obligated to implement any requested changes until Bank has actually received the
requests, and had a reasonable opportunity to act upon them. In making changes, Bank is entitled
to rely on instructions purporting to be from the Lockbox Servicer.

Affiliates.

3. Plan Administration Restrictions

     The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. The Committee is authorized, subject to the
provisions of the Plan, to establish such rules and regulations as it deems necessary for the
proper administration of the Plan and to make whatever determinations and interpretations in
connection with the Plan it deems necessary or advisable. All determinations and interpretations
made by the Committee shall be binding and conclusive on all Participants in the Plan and on their
legal representatives and beneficiaries.

     All transactions involving a grant, award or other acquisition from the Company shall:

     (a) be approved by the Company’s full Board or by the Committee; or

     (b) be approved, or ratified, in compliance with Section 14 of the Exchange Act, by either:
the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the securities present, or represented and
entitled to vote at a meeting duly held in accordance with the
laws of the state in which the Company is incorporated; or the written consent of the holders
of a majority of the securities of the issuer entitled to vote provided that such ratification
occurs no later than the date of the next annual meeting of shareholders; or

     (c) result in the acquisition of an Option or Limited Right that is held by the Participant
for a period of six months following the date of such acquisition.

     No member of the Board or the Committee shall be liable for any determination made in good
faith with respect to the Plan or any Awards granted under it. If a member of the Board or the
Committee is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed
action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,

 

 

administrative or investigative, by reason of anything done or not done by him in such capacity under or with respect to the Plan, the Bank or
the Company shall indemnify such member against expense (including attorneys’ fees), judgments,
fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with
such action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to
be in the best interests of the Bank and the Company and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

4. Types of Awards

     Awards under the Plan may be granted in any one or a combination of: (a) Incentive Stock
Options; (b) Non-Statutory Stock Options; (c) Limited Rights; (d) Dividend Equivalent Rights and
(e) Reload Options.

5. Stock Subject to the Plan

     Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 17, the maximum number of shares reserved for
issuance under the Plan is 145,805 shares. Shares issued under the Plan may be issued by the
Company from authorized but unissued shares, treasury shares or acquired by the Company in open
market purchases. The maximum number of Options that may be awarded to a Key Employee is 36,451.
To the extent that Options or rights granted under the Plan are exercised, the shares covered will
be unavailable for future grants under the Plan; to the extent that Options, together with any
related rights granted under the Plan, terminate, expire or are canceled without having been
exercised or, in the case of Limited Rights exercised for cash, new Awards may be made with respect
to these shares.

6. Eligibility

     Key Employees of the Company and its Affiliates shall be eligible to receive Incentive Stock
Options, Non-Statutory Stock Options, Limited Rights, Dividend Equivalent Rights and/or Reload
Options under the Plan. Outside Directors shall be eligible to receive Non-Statutory Stock Options,
Dividend Equivalent Rights and Reload Options under the Plan.

7. Non-Statutory Stock Options

     (a) Grants to Outside Directors and Key Employees. The Committee may, from time to time, grant
Non-Statutory Stock Options to eligible Key Employees and Outside Directors, and, upon such terms
and conditions as the Committee may determine, grant Non-Statutory Stock Options in exchange for
and upon surrender of previously granted Awards under the Plan. Non-Statutory Stock Options granted
under the Plan, including Non-Statutory Stock Options granted in exchange for and upon surrender of
previously granted Awards, are subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 7.

 

 

     (b) Option Agreement. Each Option shall be evidenced by a written option agreement between the
Company and the Participant specifying the number of shares of Common Stock that may be acquired
through its exercise and containing the terms and conditions of the option which shall not be
inconsistent with the terms of the Plan.

     (c) Price. The purchase price per share of Common Stock deliverable upon the exercise of each
Non-Statutory Stock Option shall be the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock of the Company on the
date the Option is granted. Shares may be purchased only upon full payment of the purchase price in
one or more of the manners set forth in Section 13 hereof, as determined by the Committee.

     (d) Manner of Exercise and Vesting. A Non-Statutory Stock Option granted under the Plan shall
vest in a Participant at the rate or rates determined by the Committee. A vested Option may be
exercised from time to time, in whole or in part, by delivering a written notice of exercise to the President or Chief Executive
Officer of the Company, or his designee. Such notice shall be irrevocable and must be accompanied
by full payment of the purchase price in cash or shares of Common Stock at the Fair Market Value of
such shares, determined on the exercise date in the manner described in Section 2 hereof. If
previously acquired shares of Common Stock are tendered in payment of all or part of the exercise
price, the value of such shares shall be determined as of the date of such exercise.

     (e) Terms of Options. The term during which each Non-Statutory Stock Option may be exercised
shall be determined by the Committee, but in no event shall a Non-Statutory Stock Option be
exercisable in whole or in part more than 10 years from the Date of Grant. No Options shall be
earned by a Participant unless the Participant maintains Continuous Service until the vesting date
of such Option, except as set forth herein. The shares comprising each installment may be purchased
in whole or in part at any time after such installment becomes purchasable. The Committee may, in
its sole discretion, accelerate or extend the time at which any Non-Statutory Stock Option may be
exercised in whole or in part by Key Employees and/or Outside Directors. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Plan, in the event of a Change in Control of the Company or the Bank, all
Non-Statutory Stock Options that have been awarded shall become immediately exercisable following
such Change in Control.

     (f) Termination of Employment or Service. Upon the termination of a Key Employee’s employment
or upon termination of an Outside Director’s service for any reason other than Normal Retirement,
death, Disability, Change in Control or Termination for Cause, the Participant’s Non-Statutory
Stock Options shall be exercisable only as to those shares that were immediately purchasable on the
date of termination and only for one year following termination. In the event of Termination for
Cause, all rights under a Participant’s Non-Statutory Stock Options shall expire upon termination.
In the event of termination of service or employment due to the Normal Retirement, or death or
Disability of any Participant, all Non-Statutory Stock Options held by the Participant, whether or
not exercisable at such time, shall be exercisable by the Participant or his legal representative
or beneficiaries for three years following the date of his termination due to Normal Retirement,
death or Disability, provided that in no event shall the period extend beyond the expiration of the
Non-Statutory Stock Option term.

 

 

     (g) Transferability. In the discretion of the Board, all or any Non-Statutory Stock Option
granted hereunder may be transferable by the Participant once the Option has vested in the
Participant, provided, however, that the Board may limit the transferability of such Option or
Options to a designated class or classes of persons.

8. Incentive Stock Options

     The Committee may, from time to time, grant Incentive Stock Options to Key Employees.
Incentive Stock Options granted pursuant to the Plan shall be subject to the following terms and
conditions:

     (a) Option Agreement. Each Option shall be evidenced by a written option agreement between
the Company and the Key Employee specifying the number of shares of Common Stock that may be
acquired through its exercise and containing such other terms and conditions that are not
inconsistent with the terms of the Plan.

     (b) Price. Subject to Section 17 of the Plan and Section 422 of the Code, the purchase price
per share of Common Stock deliverable upon the exercise of each Incentive Stock Option shall be not
less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date the Incentive Stock Option
is granted. However, if a Key Employee owns stock possessing more than 10% of the total combined
voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or its Affiliates (or under Section 424(d) of
the Code is deemed to own stock representing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of
all classes of stock of the Company or its Affiliates), the purchase price per share of Common
Stock deliverable upon the exercise of each Incentive Stock Option shall not be less than 110% of
the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date the Incentive Stock Option is granted. Shares
may be purchased only upon payment of the full purchase price in one or more of the manners set
forth in Section 13 hereof, as determined by the Committee.

     (c) Manner of Exercise. Incentive Stock Options granted under the Plan shall vest in a
Participant at the rate or rates determined by the Committee. The vested Options may be exercised
from time to time, in whole or in part, by delivering a written notice of exercise to the President
or Chief Executive Officer of the Company or his designee. Such notice is irrevocable and must be
accompanied by full payment of the purchase price in cash or shares of Common Stock at the Fair
Market Value of such shares determined on the exercise date by the manner described in Section 2.

     The Committee may, in its sole discretion, accelerate the time at which any Incentive Stock
Option may be exercised in whole or in part, provided that it is consistent with the terms of
Section 422 of the Code. Notwithstanding the above, in the event of a Change in Control, all Incentive Stock Options that have been awarded shall become
immediately exercisable, unless the aggregate exercise price of the amount exercisable as

 

 

a result of a Change in Control, together with the aggregate exercise price of all other Incentive Stock
Options first exercisable in the year in which the Change in Control occurs, shall exceed $100,000
(determined as of the Date of Grant). In such event, the first $100,000 of Incentive Stock Options
(determined as of the Date of Grant) shall be exercisable as Incentive Stock Options and any excess
shall be exercisable as Non-Statutory Stock Options but shall remain subject to the provisions of
this Section 8 to the extent permitted.

     (d) Amounts of Options. Incentive Stock Options may be granted to any eligible Key Employee in
such amounts as determined by the Committee; provided that the amount granted is consistent with
the terms of Section 422 of the Code. In granting Incentive Stock Options, the Committee shall
consider such factors as it deems relevant, which factors may include, among others, the position
and responsibilities of the Key Employee, the length and value of his or her service to the Bank,
the Company, or the Affiliate, the compensation paid to the Key Employee and the Committee’s
evaluation of the performance of the Bank, the Company, or the Affiliate, according to measurements
that may include, among others, key financial ratios, levels of classified assets, and independent
audit findings. In the case of an Option intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option, the
aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the time the Option is granted) of the Common Stock
with respect to which Incentive Stock Options granted are exercisable for the first time by the
Participant during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and its Affiliates) shall not
exceed $100,000. The provisions of this Section 8(d) shall be construed and applied in accordance
with Section 422(d) of the Code and the regulations, if any, promulgated thereunder.

     (e) Terms of Options. The term during which each Incentive Stock Option may be exercised shall
be determined by the Committee, but in no event shall an Incentive Stock Option be exercisable in
whole or in part more than 10 years from the Date of Grant. If any Key Employee, at the time an
Incentive Stock Option is granted to him, owns stock representing more than 10% of the total
combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or its Affiliate (or, under Section
424(d) of the Code, is deemed to own stock representing more than 10% of the total combined voting
power of all classes of stock), the Incentive Stock Option granted to him shall not be exercisable
after the expiration of five years from the Date of Grant. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Plan, in the event of a Change in Control of the Company or the Bank, all Incentive Stock
Options that have been awarded shall become immediately exercisable following such Change in
Control.

     (f) Termination of Employment. Upon the termination of a Key Employee’s service for any reason
other than Disability, Normal Retirement, Change in Control, death or termination for Cause, the
Key Employee’s Incentive Stock Options shall be exercisable only as to those shares that were
immediately purchasable by such Key Employee at the date of termination and only for a period of
three months following termination. In the event of Termination for Cause, all rights under the
Incentive Stock Options shall expire upon termination.

 

 

     Upon termination of a Key Employee’s employment due to Normal Retirement, or death or
Disability, all Incentive Stock Options held by such Key Employee, whether or not exercisable at
such time, shall be exercisable for a period of three years following the date of his cessation of
employment, provided however, that any such Option shall not, consistent with applicable law and
subject to the provisions of the option agreement, be eligible for treatment as an Incentive Stock
Option in the event such Option is exercised more than three months following the date of his
Normal Retirement or termination of employment following a Change in Control; and provided further,
that no Option shall be eligible for treatment as an Incentive Stock Option in the event such
Option is exercised more than one year following termination of employment due to Disability and
provided further, in order to obtain Incentive Stock Option treatment for Options exercised by
heirs or devisees of an Optionee, the Optionee’s death must have occurred while employed or within
three (3) months of termination of employment. In no event shall the exercise period extend beyond
the expiration of the Incentive Stock Option term.

     (g) Transferability. No Incentive Stock Option granted under the Plan is transferable except
by will or the laws of descent and distribution and is exercisable during his lifetime only by the
Key Employee to which it is granted.

     (h) Compliance with Code. The options granted under this Section 8 are intended to qualify as
Incentive Stock Options within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, but the Company makes no
warranty as to the qualification of any Option as an Incentive Stock Option within the meaning of
Section 422 of the Code. If an Option granted hereunder fails for whatever reason to comply with
the provisions of Section 422 of the Code, and such failure is not or cannot be cured, such Option
shall be a Non-Statutory Stock Option.

9. Limited Rights

     The Committee may grant a Limited Right simultaneously with the grant of any Option to any Key
Employee, with respect to all or some of the shares covered by such Option. Limited Rights granted
under the Plan are subject to the following terms and conditions:

     (a) Terms of Rights. In no event shall a Limited Right be exercisable in whole or in part
before the expiration of six months from the date of grant of the Limited Right. A Limited Right
may be exercised only in the event of a Change in Control. The terms and conditions of any Limited
Right shall be evidenced in the Option agreement entered into with the Participant and shall be
subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan.

     The Limited Right may be exercised only when the underlying Option is eligible to be
exercised, provided that the Fair Market Value of the underlying shares on the day of exercise is
greater than the exercise price of the related Option.

 

 

     Upon exercise of a Limited Right, the related Option shall cease to be exercisable. Upon
exercise or termination of an Option, any related Limited Rights shall terminate. The Limited
Rights may be for no more than 100% of the difference between the exercise price and the Fair
Market Value of the Common Stock subject to the underlying Option. The Limited Right is
transferable only when the underlying Option is transferable and under the same conditions.

     (b) Payment. Upon exercise of a Limited Right, the holder shall promptly receive from the
Company an amount of cash equal to the difference between the Fair Market Value on the Date of
Grant of the related Option and the Fair Market Value of the underlying shares on the date the
Limited Right is exercised, multiplied by the number of shares with respect to which such Limited
Right is being exercised. If provided in the option agreement, the Limited Right may be exercisable
for shares of stock of the Company or for shares of the acquiring corporation or its parent, as
applicable. The number of shares to be received on the exercise of such Limited Right shall be
determined by dividing the amount of cash that would have been available under the first sentence
above by the Fair Market Value at the time of exercise of the shares underlying the Option subject
to the Limited Right.

10. Dividend Equivalent Rights

     Simultaneously with the grant of any Option to a Participant, the Committee may grant a
Dividend Equivalent Right with respect to all or some of the shares covered by such Option.
Dividend Equivalent Rights granted under this Plan are subject to the following terms and
conditions:

     (a) Terms of Rights. The Dividend Equivalent Right provides the Participant with a cash
benefit per share for each share underlying the unexercised portion of the related Option equal to
the amount of any extraordinary dividend (as defined in Section 10(c)) per share of Common Stock
declared by the Company. The terms and conditions of any Dividend Equivalent Right shall be
evidenced in the Option agreement entered into with the Participant and shall be subject to the
terms and conditions of the Plan. The Dividend Equivalent Right is transferable only when the
related Option is transferable and under the same conditions.

     (b) Payment. Upon the payment of an extraordinary dividend, the Participant holding a Dividend
Equivalent Right with respect to Options or portions thereof which have vested shall promptly
receive from the Company the amount of cash equal to the amount of the extraordinary dividend per
share of Common Stock, multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the
unexercised portion of the related Option. With respect to options or portions thereof which have
not vested, the amount that would have been received pursuant to the Dividend Equivalent Right with
respect to the shares underlying such unvested Option or portion thereof shall be paid to the
Participant holding such Dividend Equivalent Right together with earnings thereon, on such date as
the Option or portion thereof becomes vested. Payments shall be decreased by the amount of any
applicable tax withholding prior to distribution to the Participant as set forth in Section 19.

 

 

     (c) Extraordinary Dividend. For purposes of this Section 10, an extraordinary dividend is any
dividend paid on shares of Common Stock where (i) the dividend rate exceeds the Bank’s weighted
average cost of funds on interest-bearing liabilities for the current quarter, or (ii) the
annualized aggregate dollar amount of the dividend exceeds the Bank’s after-tax net income for the
current quarter. For purposes of this Section 10, the dividend rate equals the quotient, expressed
as a percentage, of (i) the annualized dollar amount of the dividend, and (ii) the last trade price
of the Company’s Common Stock on the day immediately before the dividend is declared.

11. Reload Option

     Simultaneously with the grant of any Option to a Participant, the Committee may grant a Reload
Option with respect to all or some of the shares covered by such Option. A Reload Option may be
granted to a Participant who satisfies all or part of the exercise price of the Option with shares
of Common Stock (as described in Section 13(c) below). The Reload Option represents an additional
option to acquire the same number of shares of Common Stock as is used by the Participant to pay
for the original Option. Reload Options may also be granted to replace Common Stock withheld by the
Company for payment of a Participant’s withholding tax under Section 19. A Reload Option is subject
to all of the same terms and conditions as the original Option except that (i) the exercise price
of the shares of Common Stock subject to the Reload Option will be determined at the time the
original Option is exercised and (ii) such Reload Option will conform to all provisions of the Plan
at the time the original Option is exercised.

12. Surrender of Option

     In the event of a Participant’s termination of employment or termination of service as a
result of death, Disability or Normal Retirement, the Participant (or his or her personal
representative(s), heir(s), or devisee(s)) may, in a form acceptable to the Committee, make
application to surrender all or part of the Options held by such Participant in exchange for a cash
payment from the Company of an amount equal to the difference between the Fair Market Value of the
Common Stock on the date of termination of employment or the date of termination of service on the
Board and the exercise price per share of the Option. Whether the Committee accepts such
application or determines to make payment, in whole or part, is within its absolute and sole
discretion, it being expressly understood that the Committee is under no obligation to any
Participant whatsoever to make such payments. In the event that the Committee accepts such
application and determines to make payment, such payment shall be in lieu of the exercise of the
underlying Option and such Option shall cease to be exercisable.

13. Alternate Option Payment Mechanism

     The Committee has sole discretion to determine what form of payment it will accept for the
exercise of an Option. The Committee may indicate acceptable forms in the agreement with the
Participant covering such Options or may reserve its decision to the time of exercise. No Option is
to be considered exercised until payment in full is accepted by the Committee or its agent.

 

 

     (a) Cash Payment. The exercise price may be paid in cash or by certified check. To the extent
permitted by law, the Committee may permit all or a portion of the exercise price of an Option to
be paid through borrowed funds.

     (b) Cashless Exercise. Subject to vesting requirements, if applicable, a Participant may
engage in a “cashless exercise” of the Option. Upon a cashless exercise, the Participant shall give
the Company written notice of the exercise of the Option, together with an order to a registered
broker-dealer or equivalent third party, to sell part or all of the Common Stock subject to the
Option and to deliver enough of the proceeds to the Company to pay the Option exercise price and
any applicable withholding taxes. If the Participant does not sell the Common Stock subject to the
Option through a registered broker-dealer or equivalent third party, the Optionee can give the
Company written notice of the exercise of the Option and the third party purchaser of the Common
Stock subject to the Option shall pay the Option exercise price plus applicable withholding taxes
to the Company.

     (c) Exchange of Common Stock. The Committee may permit payment of the Option exercise price by
the tendering of previously acquired shares of Common Stock and any such term shall be reflected in
the Option agreement. All shares of Common Stock tendered in payment of the exercise price of an
Option shall be valued at the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date prior to the date
of exercise. No tendered shares of Common Stock which were acquired by the Participant upon the
previous exercise of an Option or as awards under a stock award plan (such as the Company’s
Recognition and Retention Plan) shall be accepted for exchange unless the Participant has held such
shares (without restrictions imposed by said plan or award) for at least six months prior to the
exchange.

14. Rights of a Stockholder

     A Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares covered by a
Non-Statutory and/or Incentive Stock Option until the date of issuance of a stock certificate for
such shares. Nothing in the Plan or in any Award granted confers on any person any right to
continue in the employ of the Company or its Affiliates or to continue to perform
services for the Company or its Affiliates or interferes in any way with the right of the
Company or its Affiliates to terminate his services as an officer, director or employee at any
time.

15. Agreement with Participants

     Each Award of Options, Reload Options, Limited Rights and/or Dividend Equivalent Rights will
be evidenced by a written agreement, executed by the Participant and the Company or its Affiliates,
that describes the conditions for receiving the Awards,

 

 

including the date of Award, the purchase price, applicable periods, and any other terms and conditions as may be required by the Board or
applicable securities law.

16. Designation of Beneficiary

     A Participant may, with the consent of the Committee, designate a person or persons to
receive, in the event of death, any Option, Reload Option, Limited Rights Award or Dividend
Equivalent Rights to which he would then be entitled. Such designation will be made upon forms
supplied by and delivered to the Company and may be revoked in writing. If a Participant fails
effectively to designate a Beneficiary, then his estate will be deemed to be the Beneficiary.

17. Dilution and Other Adjustments

     In the event of any change in the outstanding shares of Common Stock by reason of any stock
dividend or split, pro rata return of capital to all shareholders, recapitalization, or any merger,
consolidation, spin-off, reorganization, combination or exchange of shares, or other corporate
change, or other increase or decrease in such shares, without receipt or payment of consideration
by the Company, the Committee shall make such adjustments to previously granted Awards, to prevent
dilution or enlargement of the rights of the Participant, including any or all of the following:

     (a) Adjustments in the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be awarded under
the Plan;

     (b) Adjustments in the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be awarded to any
single individual under the Plan;

     (c) Adjustments in the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock covered by Awards already
made under the Plan; or

     (d) Adjustments in the purchase price of outstanding Incentive and/or Non-Statutory Stock
Options, or any Related Options or any Limited Rights attached to such Options.

     No such adjustments may, however, materially change the value of benefits available to a
Participant under a previously granted Award. With respect to Incentive Stock Options, no such
adjustment shall be made if it would be deemed a “modification” of the Award under Section 424 of
the Code.

18. Effect of a Change in Control on Option Awards

     In the event of a Change in Control, the Committee and the Board of Directors will take one or
more of the following actions to be effective as of the date of such Change in Control:

 

 

     (a) Provide that such Options shall be assumed, or equivalent options shall be substituted
(“Substitute Options”) by the acquiring or succeeding corporation (or an affiliate thereof),
provided that: (A) any such Substitute Options exchanged for Incentive Stock Options shall meet
the requirements of Section 424(a) of the Code, and (B) the shares of stock issuable upon the
exercise of such Substitute Options shall constitute securities registered in accordance with
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“1933 Act”) or such securities shall be exempt from the
registration provisions of the 1933 Act, (collectively, “Registered Securities”), or in the
alternative, if the securities issuable upon the exercise of such Substitute Options shall not
constitute Registered Securities, then the Participant will receive upon consummation of the
Change in Control a cash payment for each Option surrendered equal to the difference between the
(1) Fair Market Value of the consideration to be received for each share of Common Stock in the
Change in Control times the number of shares of Common Stock subject to such surrendered
Options, and (2) the aggregate exercise price of all such surrendered Options, or

     (b) In the event of a transaction under the terms of which the holders of Common Stock will
receive upon consummation thereof a cash payment (the “Merger Price”) for each share of Common
Stock exchanged in the Change in Control transaction, make or provide for a cash payment to the
Participants equal to the difference between (A) the Merger Price times the number of shares of
Common Stock subject to such Options held by each Optionee (to the extent then exercisable at
prices not in excess of the Merger Price) and (B) the aggregate exercise price of all such
surrendered Options in exchange for such surrendered Options.

19. Withholding

     There may be deducted from each distribution of cash and/or Common Stock under the Plan the
minimum amount of tax required by any governmental authority to be withheld. Shares of Common Stock
shall be withheld where required from any distribution of Common Stock.

20. Amendment of the Plan

     The Board may at any time, and from time to time, terminate, modify or amend the Plan in any
respect, or modify or amend an Award received by Key Employees and/or Outside Directors; provided,
however, that no such termination, modification or amendment may affect the rights of a
Participant, without his consent, under an outstanding Award. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in the Plan, the Board may not amend or modify the Plan without stockholder
approval where such approval is required by applicable law or by the rules of any securities
exchange or quotation system (e.g., Nasdaq) on which the Common Stock is listed or traded.
Furthermore, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Plan, the Board or the
Committee may not amend or modify any Award if such amendment or modification would require the
approval of the stockholders if the amendment or modification were made to the Plan.

 

 

21. Effective Date of Plan

     The Plan shall become effective upon the date of approval of the Plan by the Company’s
stockholders.

22. Termination of the Plan

     The right to grant Awards under the Plan will terminate upon the earlier of (i) 10 years after
the Effective Date, or (ii) the date on which the exercise of Options or related rights equaling
the maximum number of shares reserved under the Plan occurs, as set forth in Section 5. The Board
may suspend or terminate the Plan at any time, provided that no such action will, without the
consent of a Participant, adversely affect his rights under a previously granted Award.
