AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

     This AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into as
of December 8, 2008 by and between Burger King Corporation, a Florida corporation (together with
any Successor thereto, the “Company”), and Anne Chwat (“Executive”).

WITNESSETH:

     WHEREAS, Executive commenced employment with the Company on September 27, 2004;

     WHEREAS, the Company desires to continue to employ and secure the exclusive services of
Executive on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement;

     WHEREAS, Executive desires to accept such employment on such terms and conditions; and

     WHEREAS, Executive currently is a party to an employment agreement with the Company dated as
of April 20, 2006, (the “Original Agreement”), that governs the terms and conditions of her
employment, and Executive and the Company desire to have the Original Agreement superseded by the
terms of this Agreement.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants and promises
contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the Company and Executive hereby
agree as follows:

     1. Agreement to Employ. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this
Agreement, the Company hereby agrees to continue to employ Executive, and Executive hereby accepts
such continued employment with the Company.

     2. Amendment and Restatement of Original Agreement. This Agreement shall serve as a
complete amendment and restatement of the Original Agreement. All terms of the Original Agreement
shall be superseded by the terms of this Agreement and, upon execution of this Agreement, the
Original Agreement shall be of no further force and effect.

     3. Term; Position and Responsibilities; Location.

     (a) Term of Employment. Unless Executive’s employment shall sooner terminate pursuant
to Section 9, the Company shall continue to employ Executive on the terms and subject to the
conditions of this Agreement from the date first written above through June 30, 2009 (the
“Initial Term”). Effective upon the expiration of the Initial Term and each Additional
Term (as defined below), Executive’s employment hereunder shall be deemed to be automatically
extended, upon the same terms and conditions, for an additional period of one (1) year (each, an
“Additional Term”), in each

 

 

such case, commencing upon the expiration of the Initial Term or the then current Additional
Term, as the case may be, unless the Company shall have given written notice to Executive, at least
ninety (90) days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or such Additional Term, of its
intention not to extend the Employment Period (as defined below) hereunder. Executive’s Separation
from Service (as defined below) with the Company pursuant to any such notice of non-extension
delivered by the Company to Executive shall occur upon expiration of the relevant Term or
Additional Term (as applicable) and shall be deemed to constitute her Separation from Service due
to termination of her employment by the Company Without Cause (as defined below) pursuant to
Section 9(c) hereof. For purposes of this Agreement, “Separation from Service” has the
meaning given to such term in Section 1.409A-1(h) of the regulations (as amended) promulgated under
Section 409A of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).
The period during which Executive is employed by the Company pursuant to this Agreement, including
any extension thereof in accordance with this section, shall be referred to as the “Employment
Period.”

     (b) Position and Responsibilities. During the Employment Period, Executive shall
serve as Executive Vice President and General Counsel and shall have such duties and
responsibilities as are customarily assigned to individuals serving in such position and such other
duties consistent with Executive’s title and position as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company
(the “CEO”) and the Board of Directors (or any committee thereof) of the Company (the Board or such
committee referred to as the “Board”) specifies from time to time. Executive shall be a
member of the Company’s executive leadership team and shall report directly to the CEO or someone
in a substantially equivalent position within the Company who is at an equivalent level to that
which Executive currently reports. Executive shall devote all of her skill, knowledge, commercial
efforts and business time to the conscientious and good faith performance of her duties and
responsibilities for the Company to the best of her ability.

     (c) Location. During the Employment Period, Executive’s services shall be performed
primarily in the Miami-Dade metropolitan area. However, Executive may be required to travel in and
outside of Miami-Dade as the needs of the Company’s business dictate.

     4. Base Salary. During the Employment Period, the Company shall pay Executive a base
salary at an annualized rate of $450,883, payable in installments on the Company’s regular payroll
dates. The Board shall review Executive’s base salary annually during the Employment Period and
may increase (but not decrease) such base salary from time to time, based on its periodic review of
Executive’s performance in accordance with the Company’s regular policies and procedures. The
annual base salary payable to Executive from time to time under this Section 4 shall hereinafter be
referred to as the “Base Salary.”

     5. Annual Incentive Compensation. Executive shall be eligible to receive an annual
bonus (“Annual Bonus”) with respect to each fiscal year ending

2

 

during the Employment Period. The Annual Bonus shall be determined under the 2006 Omnibus
Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Plan”) or such other annual incentive plan maintained by the Company
for similarly situated employees that the Company designates, in its sole discretion (any such
plan, the “Bonus Plan”), in accordance with the terms of such plan as in effect from time
to time. For each such fiscal year, Executive shall be eligible to earn a target Annual Bonus
equal to seventy percent (70%) of Executive’s Base Salary for such fiscal year, if the Company
achieves the target performance goals established by the Board for such fiscal year in accordance
with the terms of the Bonus Plan. If the Company does not achieve the threshold performance goals
established by the Board for a fiscal year, Executive shall not be entitled to receive an Annual
Bonus for such fiscal year. If the Company exceeds the target performance goals established by the
Board for a fiscal year, Executive may be entitled to earn an additional Annual Bonus for such year
in accordance with the terms of the applicable Bonus Plan. The Annual Bonus for each year shall be
payable at the same time as bonuses are paid to other senior executives of the Company in
accordance with the terms of the applicable Bonus Plan, but in no event later than two and a half
(21/2) months following the end of the applicable fiscal year in which such Annual Bonus was earned.
Executive shall be entitled to receive any Annual Bonus that becomes payable in a lump-sum cash
payment, or, at her election, (A) up to fifty percent (50%) of the Annual Bonus in the form of a
grant of restricted stock units of Common Stock (as defined below) or (B) in any form that the
Board generally makes available to the Company’s executive management team, provided that
any such election is made by Executive in compliance with Section 409A of the Code and the
regulations promulgated thereunder.

     6. Equity Incentive Compensation. (a) All agreements pertaining to equity of Burger
King Holdings, Inc. or equity-based awards with respect to the common stock of Burger King
Holdings, Inc. (“Common Stock”) held by Executive as of the date hereof and any Management
Subscription and Shareholders’ Agreement, Management Stock Option Agreement and Restricted Share
Agreement (collectively, the “Equity Award Agreements”) to which the Executive is a party as of the
date hereof, will continue in accordance with their respective terms provided that,
notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the Equity Award Agreements, if a Change
in Control (as defined below) occurs and, within twenty-four (24) months after the date of such
Change in Control, Executive experiences a Separation from Service with the Company due to the
Company’s termination of her employment “Without Cause” or Executive’s resignation for “Good
Reason” (as defined below), all options to acquire Common Stock held by Executive at such time (the
“Options”), will become immediately and fully vested upon such termination and Executive shall have
ninety (90) days from the Date of Separation from Service (as defined below) to exercise such
Options. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Change in Control” shall have the meaning
ascribed to such term in the Omnibus Plan.

     (b) During the Employment Period, Executive shall be eligible to receive annual
performance-based equity grants in accordance with the terms and

3

 

conditions of the Omnibus Plan or such other plan providing for equity-based incentive
compensation maintained by the Company for employees at Executive’s grade level that the Company
designates, in its sole discretion.

     7. Employee Benefits.

     (a) General. During the Employment Period, Executive will be eligible to participate
in the employee and executive benefit plans and programs maintained by the Company from time to
time in which executives of the Company at Executive’s grade level are eligible to participate,
including to the extent maintained by the Company, life, medical, dental, accidental and disability
insurance plans and retirement, deferred compensation and savings plans, in accordance with the
terms and conditions thereof as in effect from time to time. The benefits referred to in this
Section 7(a) shall be provided to Executive on a basis that is commensurate with Executive’s
position and duties with the Company and on substantially the same terms and conditions as those
applicable to the Company’s other senior executive's of Executive’s title and level.

     (b) Benefit Allowance. Subject to Section 20(k)(iii) herein, with respect to each
year during the Employment Period, Executive will be entitled to receive a perquisite allowance of
$35,000 (the “Benefits Allowance”), which the Company shall pay to Executive in equal
installments, in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll policies, during such fiscal year,
subject to Executive’s continued employment with the Company.

     8. Expenses; Etc.

     (a) Business Travel, Lodging, etc. Subject to Section 20(k)(iii) herein, during the
Employment Period, the Company will reimburse Executive for reasonable travel, lodging, meal and
other reasonable expenses incurred by her in connection with the performance of her duties and
responsibilities hereunder upon submission of evidence satisfactory to the Company of the
incurrence and purpose of each such expense, provided that such expenses are permitted
under the terms and conditions of the Company’s business expense reimbursement policy applicable to
executives at Executive’s grade level, as in effect from time to time. Subject to Section
20(k)(iii) herein, during the Employment Period, the Company shall pay or reimburse Executive for
the annual membership dues for two (2) airline club memberships of Executive’s choosing, subject
to, and contingent upon, Executive’s continued employment with the Company.

     (b) Vacation. During the Employment Period, Executive shall be entitled to vacation

     9. Termination of Employment.

4

 

     (a) Termination Due to Death or Disability. Executive’s employment shall
automatically terminate upon Executive’s death and may be terminated by the Company due to
Executive’s Disability (as defined below in this subsection (a)). In the event that Executive’s
employment is terminated due to her Disability or death, no termination benefits shall be payable
to or in respect of Executive except as provided in Section 9(f)(ii). For purposes of this
Agreement, “Disability” means a physical or mental disability that prevents or would
prevent the performance by Executive of her duties hereunder for a continuous period of six (6)
months or longer. The determination of Executive’s Disability will (i) be made by an independent
physician agreed to by the parties, or if the parties are unable to agree within ten (10) days
after a request for designation by a party, by an independent physician identified by the Company’s
disability insurance provider, (ii) be final and binding on the parties hereto and (iii) be based
on such competent medical evidence as shall be presented to such independent physician by Executive
and/or the Company or by any physician or group of physicians or other competent medical experts
employed by Executive and/or the Company to advise such independent physician.

     (b) Termination by the Company for Cause. Executive’s employment may be terminated by

material and willful violation by Executive of any of the Policies (as defined in Section 13);
(iii) the failure by Executive to reasonably and substantially perform her duties hereunder (other
than as a result of physical or mental illness or injury); (iv) Executive’s willful misconduct or
gross negligence that has caused or is reasonably expected to result in material injury to the
business, reputation or prospects of the Company or any of its Affiliates; (v) Executive’s fraud or
misappropriation of funds; or (vi) the commission by Executive of a felony or other serious crime
involving moral turpitude; provided that in the case of any breach of clauses (i), (ii) or
(iii) that is curable, no termination there under shall be effective unless the Company shall have
given Executive notice of the event or events constituting Cause and Executive shall have failed to
cure such event or events within thirty (30) business days after receipt of such notice. If, in
the event Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company Without Cause (as defined in
subsection (c) below) and, on or before the 12-month anniversary of the applicable Date of
Separation from Service of such termination Without Cause, it is determined in good faith by the
Board that Executive’s employment could have been terminated for Cause under clauses (iv), (v) or
(vi) hereof, Executive’s employment shall, at the election of the Board, be deemed to have been
terminated for Cause, effective as of the date of the occurrence of the events giving rise to the
Cause termination. Upon such determination, the Company shall (x) immediately cease paying any
termination benefits pursuant to Section 9 hereof and (y) Executive shall be obligated to
immediately repay to the Company all amounts theretofore paid to Executive pursuant to Section 9.
In addition, if not repaid, the Company shall have the right to set off, in accordance with (and to
the extent permitted

5

 

by) Section 409A of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder, from any amounts
otherwise due to Executive any amounts previously paid pursuant to Section 9(f) (other than the
Accrued Obligations).

     (c) Termination Without Cause. Executive’s employment may be terminated by the
Company Without Cause (as defined below in this subsection (c)) at any time. In the event of a
termination of Executive’s employment by the Company Without Cause, no termination benefits shall
be payable to or in respect of Executive except as provided in Section 9(f)(i). For purposes of
this Agreement, a termination “Without Cause” shall mean a termination of Executive’s
employment by the Company other than due to Executive’s death or Disability as described in Section
9(a) and other than for Cause as described in Section 9(b).

     (d) Termination by Executive. Executive may resign from her employment for any
reason, including for Good Reason (as defined below in this subsection (d)). In the event of a
termination of Executive’s employment by Executive’s resignation other than for Good Reason, no
termination benefits shall be payable to or in respect of Executive except as provided in Section
9(f)(ii) and in the event of a termination of Executive’s employment by Executive for Good Reason,
no termination benefits shall be payable to or in respect of Executive except as provided in
Section 9(f)(i). For purposes of this Agreement, a termination of employment by Executive for
“Good Reason” shall mean a resignation by Executive from her employment with the Company within
thirty (30) days following the occurrence, without Executive’s consent, of any of the following
events: (i) a material diminution in the Executive’s position, authority or responsibilities; (ii)
any decrease in Executive’s Base Salary or a material decrease in the Executive’s incentive
compensation opportunities as set forth in Sections 5 and 6 or (iii) any other material breach by
the Company of any material provision of this Agreement (including without limitation any failure
by the Company to obtain agreement by any Successor thereto to expressly assume and agree to
perform this Agreement as required by Section 16 herein); provided that the Executive shall
have given the Company notice of the event or events constituting Good Reason and the Company shall
have failed to cure such event or events within thirty (30) business days after receipt of such
notice.

     (e) Procedure for Termination of Employment.

     (i) Notice of Termination. Any termination of Executive’s employment by the Company
or by Executive (other than as a result of Executive’s death) shall be communicated by a written
Notice of Termination addressed to the other party to this Agreement. A “Notice of
Termination” shall mean a notice stating that Executive or the Company, as the case may be, is
electing to terminate Executive’s employment with the Company (and thereby terminating the
Employment Period), stating the proposed effective date of such termination, indicating the
specific provision of this Section 9 under which such termination is being effected and, if
applicable, setting forth in reasonable detail the circumstances claimed to provide the basis for
such termination.

6

 

     (ii) Date of Separation from Service. The term “Date of Separation from
Service” shall mean, with respect to Executive’s Separation from Service with the Company, (A)
if the Separation from Service occurs due to Executive’s death, the date of her death, (B) if the
Separation from Service occurs due to termination of Executive’s employment by the Company by
reason of Executive’s Disability, a date which is at least six (6) months following the occurrence
of the event giving rise to the Disability, (C) if the Separation from Service occurs due to a
termination of Executive’s employment by Executive for any reason, a date which is at least 30 days
following the issuance of the Notice of Termination and (D) if the Separation from Service occurs
due to termination of Executive’s employment for any other reason, the effective date of
termination specified in such Notice of Termination. The Employment Period shall expire on the
Date of Separation from Service.

     (iii) Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section
9(e)(ii), the determination of whether and when the Date of Separation from Service occurs for the
purpose of determining when any amount that is “nonqualified deferred compensation” subject to
Section 409A of the Code becomes due and payable shall be made in a manner consistent with, and
based on the presumptions set forth in, Section 1.409A-1(h) of the regulations promulgated under
Section 409 of the Code. Solely for purposes of the determination referred to in the preceding
sentence, “Company” shall include all persons with whom the Company would be considered a
single employer under Sections 414(b) and 414(c) of the Code. In the event that the Date of
Separation from Service, as determined in accordance with this Section 9(e)(iii), occurs before the
applicable notice period specified in Section 9(e)(ii) has elapsed, the Company may elect to pay,
or commence payment of, any amounts to which this Section 9(e)(iii) applies following the
completion of such notice period, but not later than the end of the taxable year in which the Date
of Separation from Service occurs.

     (f) Payments Upon Certain Terminations.

     (i) In the event of Executive’s Separation from Service with the Company due to a termination
of her employment by the Company Without Cause or Executive’s resignation from employment for Good
Reason during the Employment Period, the Company shall pay to Executive, within thirty (30) days of
the Date of Separation from Service, her (x) Base Salary through the Date of Separation from
Service, to the extent not previously paid, (y) reimbursement for any unreimbursed business
expenses incurred by Executive prior to the Date of Separation from Service that are subject to
reimbursement pursuant to Section 8(a) and (z) payment for vacation time accrued as of the Date of
Separation from Service but unused (such amounts under clauses (x), (y) and (z), collectively the
“Accrued Obligations”). In addition, in the event of Executive’s Separation from Service
as described in this Section 9(f)(i), provided that Executive executes and delivers to the Company,
within the applicable period of time provided for under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of
1967, as amended, and in no event later than sixty (60) days following the Executive’s Date of
Separation from Service, an irrevocable Separation Agreement and General Release

7

 

substantially in the form approved by the Company, Executive shall be entitled to the
following payments and benefits:

     (A) payments of an amount equal to the sum of (x) Executive’s Base Salary and (y) the annual
amount of the Benefits Allowance described in Section 7(b), which amount shall be payable in equal
installments, in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll policies, during the period
beginning on the first business day immediately following the six (6) month anniversary of the Date
of Separation from Service and ending on the one (1) year anniversary of the Date of Separation
from Service;

     (B) a portion of Executive’s Annual Bonus for the fiscal year of the Company during which
Executive was employed that includes the Date of Separation from Service, such portion to equal the
product (such product, the “Pro-Rata Bonus”) of (1) the Annual Bonus that would have been
payable to Executive for such fiscal year had Executive remained employed for the entire fiscal
year, determined based on the extent to which the Company actually achieves the performance goals
for such year established pursuant to Section 5, multiplied by (2) a fraction, the numerator of
which is equal to the number of days in such fiscal year that precede the Date of Separation from
Service and the denominator of which is equal to 365, such amount to be payable to Executive on the
date (the “Bonus Payment Date”) annual bonuses for such fiscal year are actually paid by
the Company to its active executives, but in no event later than two and a half (21/2) months
following the end of the applicable fiscal year in which such Annual Bonus was earned;

     (C) subject to Section 20(k)(iii) herein, continued coverage during the period commencing on
the Date of Separation from Service and ending on the one year anniversary of the Date of
Separation from Service (the “Severance Period”) under the Company’s medical, dental and
life insurance plans referred to in Section 7(a) for Executive and her eligible dependents
participating in such plans immediately prior to the Date of Separation from Service, subject to
timely payment by Executive of all premiums, contributions and other co-payments required to be
paid by active senior executives of the Company under the terms of such plans as in effect from
time to time; and

     (D) at the discretion of the Company, the services of an outplacement agency as selected by
and for such period of time as determined by the Chief Human Resources Officer of the Company;
provided that in no event will the duration of such outplacement services exceed the Severance
Period and that any reimbursement to be paid by the Company for such services will be made by the
end of the year following the year in which the Date of Separation from Service occurs.

     Executive shall not have a duty to mitigate the costs to the Company under this Section
9(f)(i), nor shall any payments from the Company to Executive of pursuant to this Section 9(f) be
reduced, offset or canceled by any compensation or

8

 

fees earned by (whether or not paid currently) or offered to Executive during the Severance
Period by a subsequent employer or other Person (as defined in Section 20(l) below) for which
Executive performs services, including but not limited to consulting services. The foregoing
notwithstanding, should Executive receive or be offered health or medical benefits coverage during
the Severance Period by a subsequent employer or Person for whom Executive performs services,
Executive shall notify the Company of this within seven (7) business days of such receipt or offer,
as applicable, and all similar health and medical benefits coverage provided by the Company to
Executive shall terminate as of the effective date of such new coverage.

     (ii) In the event of Executive’s Separation from Service due to a termination of her
employment (x) upon her death or (y) by the Company for Cause or as a result of Executive’s
Disability or (z) by Executive without Good Reason, in any such case during the Employment Period,
the Company shall pay to Executive (or, in the event of Executive’s death, to her estate) the
Accrued Obligations within thirty (30) days following the Date of Separation from Service. In
addition, if Executive’s employment shall terminate upon her death or be terminated by the Company
as a result of Executive’s Disability during the Employment Period, the Company shall pay to
Executive (or, in the event of Executive’s death, to her estate) the Pro-Rata Bonus, if any, in one
lump sum on the Bonus Payment Date for the fiscal year of the Company that includes the Date of
Separation from Service, but in no event later than two and a half (21/2) months following the end
of the applicable fiscal year in which such Annual Bonus was earned.

     (iii) Except as specifically set forth in this Section 9(f), no termination benefits shall be
payable to or in respect of Executive’s employment with the Company or its Affiliates.

     (g) Resignation upon Termination. Effective as of any Date of Separation from Service
under this Section 9 or otherwise as of the date of Executive’s termination of employment with the
Company, Executive shall resign, in writing, from all Board and Board committee memberships and
other positions then held by her, or to which she has been appointed, designated or nominated, with
the Company and its Affiliates.

     10. Restrictive Covenants. Each of the Company and Executive agrees that the
Executive will have a prominent role in the management of the business, and the development of the
goodwill, of the Company and its Affiliates, and will establish and develop relations and contacts
with the principal franchisees, customers and suppliers of the Company and its Affiliates
throughout the world, all of which constitute valuable goodwill of, and could be used by Executive
to compete unfairly with, the Company and its Affiliates. In addition, Executive recognizes that
she will have access to and become familiar with or exposed to Confidential Information (as such
term is defined below), in particular, trade secrets, proprietary information, customer lists, and
other valuable business information of the Company pertaining or

9

 

related to the quick service restaurant business. Executive agrees that Executive could cause
grave harm to the Company if she, among other things, worked for the Company’s competitors,
solicited the Company’s employees away from the Company or solicited the Company’s franchisees upon
the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company or misappropriated or divulged the
Company’s Confidential Information, and that as such, the Company has legitimate business interests
in protecting its good will and Confidential Information, and, as such, these legitimate business
interests justify the following restrictive covenants:

     (a) Confidentiality.

     (i) Executive acknowledges and agrees that the terms of this Agreement, including all
addendums and attachments hereto, are confidential. Except as required by law or the requirements
of any stock exchange, Executive agrees not to disclose any information contained in this Agreement
to anyone, other than to Executive’s lawyer, financial advisor or immediate family members. If
Executive discloses any information contained in this Agreement to her lawyer, financial advisor or
immediate family members as permitted herein, Executive agrees to immediately tell each such
individual that he or she must abide by the confidentiality restrictions contained herein and keep
such information confidential as well.

     (ii) Executive agrees that during her employment with the Company and thereafter, Executive
will not, directly or indirectly (A) disclose any Confidential Information to any Person (other
than, only with respect to the period that Executive is employed by the Company, to an employee or
outside advisor of the Company who requires such information to perform his or her duties for the
Company), or (B) use any Confidential Information for Executive’s own benefit or the benefit of any
third party. “Confidential Information” means confidential, proprietary or commercially
sensitive information relating to (Y) the Company or its Affiliates, or members of their respective
management or boards or (Z) any third parties who do business with the Company or its Affiliates,
including franchisees and suppliers. Confidential Information includes, without limitation,
marketing plans, business plans, financial information and records, operation methods, personnel
information, drawings, designs, information regarding product development, other commercial or
business information and any other information not available to the public generally. The
foregoing obligation shall not apply to any Confidential Information that has been previously
disclosed to the public or is in the public domain (other than by reason of a breach of Executive’s
obligations to hold such Confidential Information confidential). If Executive is required or
requested by a court or governmental agency to disclose Confidential Information, Executive must
notify the Company of such disclosure obligation or request no later than three (3) business days
after Executive learns of such obligation or request, and permit the Company to take all lawful
steps it deems appropriate to prevent or limit the required disclosure.

     (b) Non-Competition. Executive agrees that during her employment with the Company,
Executive shall devote all of her skill, knowledge, commercial efforts

10

 

and business time to the conscientious and good faith performance of her duties and
responsibilities to the Company to the best of her ability and Executive shall not, directly or
indirectly, be employed by, render services for, engage in business with or serve as an agent or
consultant to any Person other than the Company. Executive further agrees that during her
employment with the Company and for the period of one (1) year following Executive’s Separation
from Service with the Company, Executive shall not directly or indirectly engage in any activities
that are competitive with the quick service restaurant business conducted by the Company, and
Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, become employed by, render services for, engage in
business with, serve as an agent or consultant to, or become a partner, member, principal,
stockholder or other owner of, McDonald’s Corporation, Yum! Brands, Inc., Wendy’s International,
Inc., or any of their Affiliates, provided that Executive shall be permitted to hold a one percent
(1%) or less interest in the equity or debt securities of any publicly traded company.
Executive’s duties and responsibilities involve, and/or will affect, the operation and management
of the Company on a worldwide basis. Executive will obtain Confidential Information that will
affect the Company’s operations throughout the world. Accordingly, Executive acknowledges that the
Company has legitimate business interests in requiring a worldwide geographic scope and application
of this non-compete provision, and agrees that this non-compete provision applies on a worldwide
basis.

     (c) Non-Solicitation of Employees and Franchisees. During the period of Executive’s
employment with the Company and for the one (1)-year period following Executive’s Separation from
Service with the Company, Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, by herself or through any
third party, whether on Executive’s own behalf or on behalf of any other Person or entity, (i)
solicit or induce or endeavor to solicit or induce, divert, employ or retain, (ii) interfere with
the relationship of the Company or any of its Affiliates with, or (iii) attempt to establish a
business relationship of a nature that is competitive with the business of the Company with any
Person that is or was (during the last twelve (12) months of Executive’s employment with the
Company) (A) an employee of the Company or engaged to provide services to it, or (B) a franchisee
of the Company or any of its Affiliates.

     11. Work Product. Executive agrees that all of Executive’s work product (created
solely or jointly with others, and including any intellectual property or moral rights in such work
product), given, disclosed, created, developed or prepared in connection with Executive’s
employment with the Company, whether ensuing during or after Executive’s employment with the
Company (“Work Product”) shall exclusively vest in and be the sole and exclusive property of the
Company and shall constitute “work made for hire” (as that term is defined under Section 101 of the
U.S. Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. § 101) with the Company being the person for whom the work was
prepared. In the event that any such Work Product is deemed not to be a “work made for hire” or
does not vest by operation of law in the Company, Executive hereby irrevocably assigns, transfers
and conveys to the Company, exclusively and perpetually, all right, title and interest which
Executive may have or acquire in and to such Work Product throughout the world, including without
limitation any copyrights and patents, and the

11

 

right to secure registrations, renewals, reissues, and extensions thereof. The Company and
its Affiliates or their designees shall have the exclusive right to make full and complete use of,
and make changes to all Work Product without restrictions or liabilities of any kind, and Executive
shall not have the right to use any such materials, other than within the legitimate scope and
purpose of Executive’s employment with the Company. Executive shall promptly disclose to the
Company the creation or existence of any Work Product and shall take whatever additional lawful
action may be necessary, and sign whatever documents the Company may require, in order to secure
and vest in the Company or its designee all right, title and interest in and to all Work Product
and any intellectual property rights therein (including full cooperation in support of any Company
applications for patents and copyright or trademark registrations).

     12. Return of Company Property. In the event of termination of Executive’s employment
for any reason, Executive shall return to the Company all of the property of the Company and its
Affiliates, including without limitation all materials or documents containing or pertaining to
Confidential Information, and including without limitation, any Company car, all computers
(including laptops), cell phones, keys, PDAs, Blackberries, credit cards, facsimile machines,
televisions, card access to any Company building, customer lists, computer disks, reports, files,
e-mails, work papers, Work Product, documents, memoranda, records and software, computer access
codes or disks and instructional manuals, internal policies, and other similar materials or
documents which Executive used, received or prepared, helped prepare or supervised the preparation
of in connection with Executive’s employment with the Company. Executive agrees not to retain any
copies, duplicates, reproductions or excerpts of such material or documents.

     13. Compliance With Company Policies. During Executive’s employment with the Company,
Executive shall be governed by and be subject to, and Executive hereby agrees to comply with, all
Company policies, procedures, rules and regulations applicable to employees generally or to
employees at Executive’s grade level, including without limitation, the Burger King Companies’ Code
of Business Ethics and Conduct, in each case, as they may be amended from time to time in the
Company’s sole discretion (collectively, the “Policies”).

     14. Data Protection & Privacy.

     (a) Executive acknowledges that the Company, directly or through its Affiliates, collects and
processes data (including personal sensitive data and information retained in email) relating to
Executive. Executive hereby agrees to such collection and processing and further agrees to execute
the Burger King Corporation Employee Consent to Collection and Processing of Personal Information,
a copy of which is attached to this Agreement as Attachment 1, unless a previously executed copy of
such Consent is on file with the Company.

12

 

     (b) To ensure regulatory compliance and for the protection of its workers, customers,
suppliers and business, the Company reserves the right to monitor, intercept, review and access
telephone logs, internet usage, voicemail, email and other communication facilities provided by the
Company which Executive may use during her employment with the Company. Executive hereby
acknowledges that all communications and activities on Company equipment or premises cannot be
presumed to be private.

     15. Injunctive Relief with Respect to Covenants; Forum, Venue and Jurisdiction.
Executive acknowledges and agrees that a breach by Executive of any of Section 10, 11, 12, 13 or 14
is a material breach of this Agreement and that remedies at law may be inadequate to protect the
Company and its Affiliates in the event of such breach, and, without prejudice to any other rights
and remedies otherwise available to the Company, Executive agrees to the granting of injunctive
relief in the Company’s favor in connection with any such breach or violation without proof of
irreparable harm, plus attorneys’ fees and costs to enforce these provisions. Executive further
acknowledges and agrees that the Company’s obligations to pay Executive any amount or provide
Executive with any benefit or right pursuant to Section 9 is subject to Executive’s compliance with
Executive’s obligations under Sections 10 through 14 inclusive, and that in the event of a breach
by Executive of any of Section 10, 11, 12, 13 or 14, the Company shall immediately cease paying
such benefits and Executive shall be obligated to immediately repay to the Company all amounts
theretofore paid to Executive pursuant to Section 9. In addition, if not repaid, the Company shall
have the right to set off, in accordance with (and to the extent permitted by) Section 409A of the
Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder, from any amounts otherwise due to Executive any
amounts previously paid pursuant to Section 9(f) (other than the Accrued Obligations). Executive
further agrees that the foregoing is appropriate for any such breach inasmuch as actual damages
cannot be readily calculated, the amount is fair and reasonable under the circumstances, and the
Company would suffer irreparable harm if any of these Sections were breached. All disputes not
relating to any request or application for injunctive relief in accordance with this Section 15
shall be resolved by arbitration in accordance with Section 20 (b).

     16. Assumption of Agreement. The Company shall require any Successor thereto, by
agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Executive, to expressly assume and agree
to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be
required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. Failure of the Company to obtain
such agreement prior to the effectiveness of any such succession shall be a breach of this
Agreement.

     17. Indemnification. The Company agrees both during and after the Employment Period
to indemnify Executive to the fullest extent permitted by its Certificate of Incorporation
(including payment of expenses in advance of final disposition of a proceeding) against actions or
inactions of Executive during the Employment Period as an officer, director or employee of the
Company or any of its

13

 

Subsidiaries or Affiliates or as a fiduciary of any benefit plan of any of the foregoing. The
Company also agrees to provide Executive with directors and officers insurance coverage both during
and, with regard to matters occurring during the Employment Period, after the Employment Period.
Such coverage shall be at a level at least equal to the level being maintained at such time for the
then current officers and directors or, if then being maintained at a higher level with regard to
any prior period activities for officers or directors during such prior period, such higher amount
with regard to Executive’s activities during such prior period.

     18. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the
parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. All prior correspondence and proposals
(including but not limited to summaries of proposed terms) and all prior promises, representations,
understandings, arrangements and agreements relating to such subject matter (including but not
limited to those made to or with Executive by any other Person and those contained in any prior
employment, consulting or similar agreement, including the Original Agreement, entered into by
Executive and the Company or any predecessor thereto or Affiliate thereof) are merged herein and
superseded hereby.

     19. Survival. The following Sections shall survive the termination of Executive’s
employment with the Company and of this Agreement: 9(f), 10, 11, 12, 14, 15, 17, 19 and 20.

     20. Miscellaneous.

     (a) Binding Effect; Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the
benefit of the Company and its Successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement shall also be
binding on and inure to the benefit of Executive and her heirs, executors, administrators and legal
representatives. This Agreement shall not be assignable by any party hereto without the prior
written consent of the other parties hereto, provided, however, that the Company
may effect such an assignment without prior written approval of Executive upon the transfer of all
or substantially all of its business and/or assets (by whatever means), provided that the
Successor to the Company shall expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in accordance
with the provisions of Section 16.

     (b) Arbitration. The Company and Executive agree that any dispute or controversy
arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall be resolved by final and binding
arbitration before the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). The arbitration shall be
conducted in accordance with AAA’s National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes then in
effect at the time of the arbitration. The arbitration shall be held in Miami, Florida. The
dispute shall be heard and determined by one arbitrator selected from a list of arbitrators who are
members of AAA’s Regional Employment Dispute Resolution roster. If the parties cannot agree upon a
mutually acceptable arbitrator from the list, each party shall number the names in order of

14

 

preference and return the list to AAA within ten (10) days from the date of the list. A party
may strike a name from the list only for good cause. The arbitrator receiving the highest ranking
by the parties shall be selected. Depositions, if permitted by the arbitrator, shall be limited to
a maximum of two (2) per party and to a maximum of four (4) hours in duration. The arbitration
shall not impair either party’s right to request injunctive or other equitable relief in accordance
with Section 15 of this Agreement.

     (c) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of Florida without reference to principles of conflicts of laws.

     (d) Taxes. The Company may withhold from any payments made under this Agreement all
applicable taxes, including but not limited to income, employment and social insurance taxes, as
shall be required by law.

     (e) Amendments. No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived or discharged
unless such modification, waiver or discharge is approved in writing by the Board or a Person
authorized thereby and is agreed to in writing by Executive. No waiver by any party hereto at any
time of any breach by any other party hereto of, or compliance with, any condition or provision of
this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or
dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent time. No waiver of
any provision of this Agreement shall be implied from any course of dealing between or among the
parties hereto or from any failure by any party hereto to assert its rights hereunder on any
occasion or series of occasions.

     (f) Severability. In the event that any one or more of the provisions of this
Agreement shall be or become invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity,
legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not be affected
thereby. In the event that one or more terms or provisions of this Agreement are deemed invalid
or unenforceable by the laws of Florida or any other state or jurisdiction in which it is to be
enforced, by reason of being vague or unreasonable as to duration or geographic scope of activities
restricted, or for any other reason, the provision in question shall be immediately amended or
reformed to the extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable by the court of such jurisdiction
charged with interpreting and/or enforcing such provision. Executive agrees and acknowledges that
the provision in question, as so amended or reformed, shall be valid and enforceable as though the
invalid or unenforceable portion had never been included herein.

     (g) Notices. Any notice or other communication required or permitted to be delivered
under this Agreement shall be (i) in writing, (ii) delivered personally, by courier service or by
certified or registered mail, first-class postage prepaid and return receipt requested, (iii)
deemed to have been received on the date of delivery or, if mailed, on the third business day after
the mailing thereof, and (iv) addressed as follows

that are taxable income to Executive shall in no event be paid later than the end of the calendar
year next following the calendar year in which Executive incurs such expense or pays such related
tax. With regard to any provision herein that provides for reimbursement of costs and expenses or
in-kind benefits, except as permitted by Section 409A of the Code, (A) the right to reimbursement
or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit and (B) the

translated into U.S. Dollars at the exchange rates in effect on the last Business Day of the fiscal
quarter immediately preceding the fiscal quarter in which such determination occurs or in respect
of which such determination is being made, as such exchange rates shall be determined in good faith
by the Borrower by reference to customary indices, provided that if any Indebtedness is
incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a currency other than U.S. Dollars, and
such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. Dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if
calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, the
limitation on the permitted amount of such Indebtedness will be deemed not to have been exceeded so
long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount
of such Indebtedness being refinanced (and, for the purposes of this proviso, if refinancing
Indebtedness is to be incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, the
principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness and the Indebtedness being refinanced will be
calculated based on the currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing with
respect to the currencies in which such respective Indebtedness is denominated). For purposes of

currencies other than U.S. Dollars shall be translated into U.S. Dollars at the exchange rates in
effect on the last Business Day of the fiscal quarter immediately preceding the fiscal quarter in
which such amount was incurred, as such exchange rates shall be determined in good faith by the
Borrower by reference to customary indices. No Default shall arise as a result of any limitation or
threshold set forth in U.S. Dollars in Section 6.01, 6.02, 6.03, 6.04, 6.05, 6.07, 6.08, 6.09 or
6.14 or paragraph (f), (g) or (k) of Article VII being exceeded solely as a result of changes in
currency exchange rates from those rates applicable on the last day of the fiscal quarter
immediately preceding the fiscal quarter in which such determination occurs or in respect of which
such determination is being made or such amount was incurred, as the case may be. Otherwise, where
applicable, amounts expressed in U.S. Dollars, or required to be calculated in U.S. Dollars, shall
be deemed to include any component thereof denominated in an Alternative
Currency based upon the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of such component.

46

amendment, renewal or extension of such Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, using the Exchange
Rate for the applicable currency in relation to U.S. Dollars in effect on the date of
determination, and each such amount shall be the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of such Letter of Credit
until the next required calculation thereof pursuant to this Section 1.06(b)(i).

     (ii) The Administrative Agent shall determine the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of any Borrowing
denominated in any Alternative Currency as of each date (with such date to be reasonably determined

applicable currency in relation to U.S. Dollars in effect on the date of determination, and each
such amount shall be the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of such Borrowing until the next required
calculation thereof pursuant to this Section 1.06(b)(ii).

LC Exposure shall be determined as set forth in paragraph (j) of Section 2.05, at the time and in
the circumstances specified therein.

     (iv) The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower, the applicable Lenders and the
applicable Issuing Bank of each calculation of the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of each Letter of Credit,
Borrowing and L/C Disbursement.

     (v) The Administrative Agent shall determine the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the outstanding
principal amount of any Term Loan denominated in Euros as of each date (with such date to be
reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent) that is on or about the date of a prepayment
with respect to such Term Loan, in each case using the Exchange Rate for Euros in relation to U.S.
Dollars in effect on the date of determination.

time to time during the Revolving Availability Period in U.S. Dollars in an aggregate principal
amount that will not result in such Lender’s U.S. Revolving Exposure exceeding such Lender’s U.S.

Alternative Currency if, after the making of such Global Revolving Loan, the U.S. Dollar Equivalent
of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Global Revolving Loans denominated in an

shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less

shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less
than the Borrowing Minimum. Each Swingline Loan shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple
of $100,000 and not less than $1,000,000. Borrowings of more than one Type and Class may be
outstanding at the same time, provided that there shall not at any time be more than a

in the case of a Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided
in Section 2.05(e), by remittance to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that the Global
Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to Section 2.05(e) to reimburse the applicable
Issuing Bank, to such Lenders and such Issuing Bank as their interests may appear) by 3:00 p.m.,
New York City time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan.

     (c) The Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later
than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on any Business Day require the Global Revolving Lenders to

absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the
Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage
of such Swingline Loan or Swingline Loans. Each Global Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees
that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is
absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the
occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that
each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.
Each Global Revolving Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer
of immediately

50

 

available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by
such Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of
the Global Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline
Lender the amounts so received by it from the Global Revolving Lenders. The Administrative Agent
shall notify the Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this
paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the
Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender
from the Borrower (or other party on behalf of the Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after
receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be
promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent and any such amounts received by the Administrative
Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Global Revolving Lenders that
shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their
interests may appear, provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to the
Swingline Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, if and to the extent such payment
is required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. The purchase of participations in a
Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Borrower of any default in the
payment thereof.

     (d) Provisions Related to Extended Revolving Commitments. If the maturity date shall
have occurred in respect of any tranche of Revolving Commitments at a time when another tranche or
tranches of Revolving Commitments is or are in effect with a longer maturity date, then on the
earliest occurring maturity date all then outstanding Swingline Loans shall be repaid in full on
such date (and there shall be no adjustment to the participations in such Swingline Loans as a
result of the occurrence of such maturity date); provided, however, that if on the occurrence of
such earliest maturity date (after giving effect to any repayments of Revolving Loans and any
reallocation of Letter of Credit participations as contemplated in Section 2.05(n)), there shall
exist sufficient unutilized Extended Revolving Commitments so that the respective outstanding
Swingline Loans could be incurred pursuant the Extended Revolving Commitments which will remain in
effect after the occurrence of such maturity date, then there shall be an automatic adjustment on
such date of the participations in such Swingline Loans and same shall be deemed to have been
incurred solely pursuant to the relevant Extended Revolving Commitments, and such Swingline Loans
shall not be so required to be repaid in full on such earliest maturity date.

     SECTION 2.05   Letters of Credit. (a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower
may request the issuance of Letters of Credit for its own account (or for the account of any
Subsidiary so long as the Borrower and such Subsidiary are co-applicants), in a form reasonably
acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank, at any time and from time
to time during the Revolving Availability Period. The parties hereto agree that the Existing
Letters of Credit will automatically, without any further action on the part of any Person, be
deemed to be Letters of Credit hereunder issued hereunder on the Effective Date for the account of
the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary and the Borrower as co-applicant. Without limiting the
foregoing (i) each such Existing Letter of Credit shall be included in the calculation of the LC
Exposure, (ii) all liabilities of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties with respect to such
Existing Letters of Credit shall constitute Obligations and (iii) each Lender shall have
reimbursement obligations with respect to such Existing Letters of Credit as provided in Section
2.05(e). In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and
conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit
application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or entered into by the Borrower with,
an Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall
control.

51

 

     (b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request
the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter
of Credit), the Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication,
if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the applicable Issuing Bank) to the applicable
Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance,
amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or
identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of
issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such
Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section), the amount
of such Letter of Credit, the currency in which such Letter of Credit is to be denominated, the
name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to
prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by the applicable Issuing Bank,
the Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing Bank’s standard form
in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended,
renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of
Credit the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such
issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, (i) the LC Exposure shall not exceed $75,000,000 and
(ii) the aggregate Global Revolving Exposures shall not exceed the aggregate Global Revolving
Commitments.

     (c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of
business on the earlier of (i) the date that is one year after the date of the issuance of such
Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal
or extension) and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Maturity Date,
provided, however, that a Letter of Credit may, upon the request of the Borrower,
include a provision whereby such Letter of Credit shall be renewed automatically for additional
consecutive periods of one year or less (but not beyond the date that is five Business Days prior
to the Revolving Maturity Date) unless the applicable Issuing Bank notifies the beneficiary thereof
at least 30 days prior to the then-applicable expiration date that such Letter of Credit will not
be renewed.

     (d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a
Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the
applicable Issuing Bank or the Lenders, such Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Global Revolving
Lender, and each Global Revolving Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, a participation in
such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount
available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the
foregoing, each Global Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the
Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Applicable
Percentage of (i) each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank in U.S. Dollars and (ii) the U.S.
Dollar Equivalent, using the Exchange Rate in effect on the date such payment is required, of each
LC Disbursement made by such Issuing

52

 

Bank in an Alternative Currency and, in each case, not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date
due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be
refunded to the Borrower for any reason (or if such LC Disbursement or reimbursement payment was
refunded in an Alternative Currency, the U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof using the Exchange Rate in
effect on the date of such refund). Each Global Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its
obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is
absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any
amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a
Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made
without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

     (e) Reimbursement. If the applicable Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in
respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the
Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement, in the currency in which such LC
Disbursement is made, not later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date that such LC
Disbursement is made, if the Borrower shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to
10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by the
Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than (i) 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on
the Business Day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is received prior to 10:00
a.m., New York City time, on the day of receipt, or (ii) 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the
Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice
is not received prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the day of receipt, provided
that, if such LC Disbursement is not less than $1,000,000, the Borrower may, subject to the
conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 or 2.04 that such
payment be financed with an ABR Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan in an equivalent amount and,
to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and
replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan. If the Borrower fails to make
such payment when due (or if any such reimbursement payment is required to be refunded to the
Borrower for any reason), then (A) if such payment relates to an Alternative Currency Letter of
Credit, automatically and with no further action required, the Borrower’s obligation to reimburse
the applicable LC Disbursement shall be permanently converted into an obligation to reimburse the
U.S. Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the Exchange Rate on the date when such payment was due,
of such LC Disbursement and (B) in the case of each LC Disbursement, the Administrative Agent shall
notify the applicable Issuing Bank and each Global Revolving Lender of the applicable LC
Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s
Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Global Revolving
Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from
the Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such
Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the
Global Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable
Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Global Revolving Lenders. Promptly following
receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph,
the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the
extent that Global Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse
such Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders

53

 

and such Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Global Revolving
Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse an Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than
the funding of ABR Revolving Loans or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute
a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement. If
the Borrower’s reimbursement of, or obligation to reimburse, any amounts in any Alternative
Currency would subject the Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Bank or any Lender to any
stamp duty, ad valorem charge or similar tax that would not be payable if such reimbursement were
made or required to be made in U.S. Dollars, the Borrower shall, at its option, either (x)
indemnify the Administrative Agent, the relevant Issuing Bank or such Lender for the full amount of
any such tax in accordance with, and subject to, the procedures set forth in Section 2.17(c) or (y)
reimburse each LC Disbursement made in such Alternative Currency in U.S. Dollars, in an amount
equal to the U.S. Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the applicable Exchange Rate on the date such
LC Disbursement is made, of such LC Disbursement.

     (f) Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as
provided in paragraph (e) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and
shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all
circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any
Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other
document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any
respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the
applicable Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document
that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (iv) any other event or
circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the
provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of
setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders
nor any Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility
by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment
or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in
the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or
delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit
(including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of
technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of such Issuing Bank,
provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the applicable Issuing Bank
from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential or
punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent
permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the applicable Issuing
Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under
a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the
absence of gross negligence or wilful misconduct on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank (as
finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), such Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have
exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the
generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented that appear on
their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the applicable
Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents
without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the
contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such
documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit, and any such
acceptance or refusal shall be deemed not to constitute gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

54

 

     (g) Disbursement Procedures. The applicable Issuing Bank shall, promptly following
its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a
Letter of Credit. Such Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower
by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has
made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder, provided that any failure to give or delay in
giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank
and the Global Revolving Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement in accordance with
paragraph (e) of this Section.

     (h) Interim Interest. If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless
the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made,
the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC
Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement,
(i) if such LC Disbursement is made in U.S. Dollars, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR
Revolving Loans and (ii) if such LC Disbursement is made in an Alternative Currency, at the rate
per annum then applicable to Eurocurrency Revolving Loans, provided that, in each case, if
the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this
Section, then Section 2.13(c) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for
the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of
payment by any Revolving Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse such Issuing
Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.

     (i) Replacement of an Issuing Bank. An Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by
written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the
successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement
of an Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay
all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.12(b).
From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall
have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters
of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be
deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all
previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank
hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the
rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit
issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of
Credit.

     (j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on
the Business Day on which the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the
Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Global Revolving Lenders
with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash
collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall deposit in an account with the
Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of

55

 

the Lenders, an amount in cash in U.S. Dollars equal to the LC Exposure as of such date plus
any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, provided that (i) the portions of such amount
attributable to undrawn Alternative Currency Letters of Credit or LC Disbursements in an
Alternative Currency that the Borrower is not late in reimbursing shall be deposited in the
applicable Alternative Currencies in the actual amounts of such undrawn Letters of Credit and LC
Disbursements and (ii) the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective
immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other
notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to Holdings or the
Borrower described in paragraph (h) or (i) of Article VII. For the purposes of this paragraph, the
Alternative Currency LC Exposure shall be calculated using the Exchange Rates on the date notice
demanding cash collateralization is delivered to the Borrower. The Borrower also shall deposit cash
collateral pursuant to this paragraph as and to the extent required by Section 2.11(b). Each such
deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of
the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive
dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than
any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the
option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Borrower’s risk and expense, such
deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate
in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse
each Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not
so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for
the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to
the consent of Global Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the LC
Exposure), be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. If the
Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the
occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be
returned to the Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or
waived. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to
Section 2.11(b), such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the
Borrower as and to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, the Borrower would remain
in compliance with Section 2.11(b) and no Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

     (k) Additional Issuing Banks. From time to time, the Borrower may by notice to the
Administrative Agent designate a Global Revolving Lender (in addition to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.)
that agrees (in its sole discretion) to act in such capacity and which is reasonably satisfactory
to the Administrative Agent, as an Issuing Bank, provided that the Syndication Agent shall
be deemed reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent for purposes of this paragraph (k).
Such additional Issuing Bank shall execute a counterpart of this Agreement in such capacity and
shall thereafter be an Issuing Bank hereunder for all purposes.

     (l) Issuing Bank Agreements. Unless otherwise requested by the Administrative Agent,
each Issuing Bank shall report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) on the first Business Day
of each week, the daily activity (set forth by day) in respect of Letters of Credit during the
immediately preceding week, including all issuances, extensions, amendments and renewals, all
expirations and cancellations and all disbursements and reimbursements, (ii) on or prior to each
Business Day on which such Issuing Bank expects to issue, amend, renew or extend

56

 

any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, and the
aggregate face amount of the Letters of Credit to be issued, amended, renewed or extended by it and
outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension occurred (and
whether the amount thereof changed), it being understood that such Issuing Bank shall not permit
any issuance, renewal, extension or amendment resulting in an increase in the amount of any Letter
of Credit to occur without first obtaining written (or, with respect to any Issuing Bank, if the
Administrative Agent so agrees with respect to such Issuing Bank, telephonic) confirmation from the
Administrative Agent that such issuance is then permitted under this Agreement, (iii) on each
Business Day on which such Issuing Bank makes any LC Disbursement in respect of any Letter of
Credit, the date of such LC Disbursement and the amount of such LC Disbursement, (iv) on any
Business Day on which the Borrower fails to reimburse an LC Disbursement required to be reimbursed
to such Issuing Bank on such day, the date of such failure and the amount and currency of such LC
Disbursement and (v) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent
shall reasonably request.

     (m) Conversion. In the event that the Loans become immediately due and payable on any
date pursuant to Article VII, all amounts (i) that the Borrower is at the time or thereafter
becomes required to reimburse or otherwise pay to the Administrative Agent in respect of LC
Disbursements made under any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit (other than amounts in respect
of which such Borrower has deposited cash collateral pursuant to paragraph (j) above, if such cash
collateral was deposited in the applicable Alternative Currency to the extent so deposited or
applied), (ii) that the Global Revolving Lenders are at the time or thereafter become required to
pay to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent is at the time or thereafter becomes
required to distribute to the applicable Issuing Bank pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section in
respect of unreimbursed LC Disbursements made under any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit and
(iii) of each Global Revolving Lender’s participation in any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit
under which an LC Disbursement has been made shall, automatically and with no further action
required, be converted into the U.S. Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the Exchange Rates on such
date (or in the case of any LC Disbursement made after such date, on the date such LC Disbursement
is made), of such amounts. On and after such conversion, all amounts accruing and owed to the
Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Bank or any Lender in respect of the obligations
described in this paragraph shall accrue and be payable in U.S. Dollars at the rates otherwise
applicable hereunder.

     (n) Provisions Related to Extended Revolving Commitments. If the maturity date in
respect of any tranche of Revolving Commitments occurs prior to the expiration of any Letter of
Credit, then (i) if one or more other tranches of Revolving Commitments in respect of which the
maturity date shall not have occurred are then in effect, such Letters of Credit shall
automatically be deemed to have been issued (including for purposes of the obligations of the
Revolving Lenders to purchase participations therein and to make Revolving Loans and payments in
respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.05(e)) under (and ratably participated in by Lenders pursuant
to) the Revolving Commitments in respect of such non-terminating tranches up to an aggregate amount
not to exceed the aggregate principal amount of the unutilized Revolving Commitments thereunder at
such time (it being understood that no partial face amount of any Letter of Credit may be so
reallocated) and (ii) to the extent not reallocated pursuant to immediately preceding clause (i),
the Borrower shall cash collateralize any such Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 2.05(j).
If, for any reason, such cash collateral is not provided or the reallocation does

57

 

not occur, the Revolving Lenders under the maturing tranche shall continue to be responsible
for their participating interests in the Letters of Credit. Except to the extent of reallocations
of participations pursuant to clause (i) of the second preceding sentence, the occurrence of a
maturity date with respect to a given tranche of Revolving Commitments shall have no effect upon
(and shall not diminish) the percentage participations of the Revolving Lenders in any Letter of
Credit issued before such maturity date. Commencing with the maturity date of any tranche of
Revolving Commitments, the sublimit for Letters of Credit shall be agreed with the Lenders under
the extended tranches.

     SECTION 2.06   Funding of Borrowings. (a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date
thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00 noon, New York City time, to the
account of the Administrative Agent most-recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to
the Lenders, provided that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.04. The
Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the
amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower maintained with the
Administrative Agent or otherwise designated by the Borrower (i) in the case of Loans denominated
in U.S. Dollars, in New York City and (ii) in the case of Loans denominated in Euro or Sterling, in
London, and in each case designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request,
provided that Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as
provided in Section 2.05(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing
Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to Section 2.05(e) to
reimburse such Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and the applicable Issuing Bank as their
interests may appear.

     (b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the
proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent
such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has
made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in
reliance upon such assumption and in its sole discretion, make available to the Borrower a
corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable
Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower
severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount
with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to
the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case
of such Lender, (x) if such Borrowing is denominated in U.S. Dollars, the greater of the Federal
Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking
industry rules on interbank compensation, and (y) if such Borrowing is denominated in an
Alternative Currency, the rate reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent to be the cost to
it of funding such amount, or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to
such Borrowing. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall
constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.

     SECTION 2.07   Interest Elections. (a) Each Revolving Borrowing and Term Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified
in the applicable Borrowing Request or designated by Section 2.03 and, in the case of a
Eurocurrency Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing
Request or designated by Section 2.03. Thereafter,
the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such
Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as
provided in this Section, provided that the Borrower may not elect to convert any Borrowing
denominated in an Alternative Currency to an ABR Borrowing and may not change the currency in which
any Borrowing is denominated. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different
portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably
among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such
portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section shall not apply to Swingline
Borrowings, which may not be converted or continued.

58

 

     (b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative
Agent of such election by telephone or by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of
a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by
the Borrower by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the
Borrower were requesting a Revolving Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made
on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be
irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative
Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and
signed by the Borrower.

     (c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following
information in compliance with Section 2.02:

     (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options
are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated
to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses
(iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

     (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which
shall be a Business Day;

     (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing;
and

     (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Interest Period to be
applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by
the definition of the term “Interest Period”.

     If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing but does not specify
an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one
month’s duration.

     (d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall
advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

     (e) If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a
Eurocurrency Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless
such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing
shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing (unless such Borrowing is denominated in an Alternative
Currency, in which case the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one
month for such Borrowing). Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing and (other than in the case of an Event of Default of the type
described in paragraph (h) or (i) of Article VII with respect to Holdings or the Borrower) the
Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower (and, in the
case of an Event of Default of the type described in paragraph (h) or (i) of Article VII with
respect to Holdings or the Borrower, automatically), then, so long as an Event of Default is
continuing (i) no outstanding Revolving Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency may be
continued for an Interest Period of more than one month’s duration, (ii) no outstanding Borrowing
denominated in U.S. Dollars may be converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing and (iii)
unless repaid, each Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in U.S. Dollars shall be converted to an ABR
Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

59

 

     SECTION 2.08   Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) The Tranche B Commitments of each Tranche B Lender shall automatically and permanently be
reduced to $0 upon the funding of Tranche B Term Loans on the Restatement Effective Date. The
Tranche B Euro Commitments of each Tranche B Euro Lender shall automatically and permanently be
reduced to €0 upon the funding of Tranche B Euro Term Loans on the Restatement Effective Date.
Unless previously terminated, the Revolving Commitments (other than any Extended Revolving
Commitments) shall terminate on the Revolving Maturity Date. The Extended Revolving Commitments
shall terminate on the respective maturity dates applicable thereto.

     (b) The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments of
any Class, provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be in an
amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000, (ii) the Borrower
may not terminate either Class of Revolving Commitments without also terminating the other Class of
Revolving Commitments, and any reduction of Revolving Commitments shall be allocated pro rata
between the Global Revolving Commitments and the U.S. Revolving Commitments (based on the aggregate
Commitments of each such Class) and (iii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce either Class
of the Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving
Loans of such Class in accordance with Section 2.11, the aggregate Revolving Exposures of such
Class (excluding, in the case of any termination of the Global Revolving Commitments, the portion
of the Global Revolving Exposures attributable to outstanding Letters of Credit if and to the
extent that the Borrower has made arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the
applicable Issuing Bank with respect to such Letters of Credit and such Issuing Bank has released
the Global Revolving Lenders from their participation obligations with respect to such Letters of
Credit) would exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments of such Class.

     (c) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce
the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the
effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date
thereof. Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the
Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to
this Section shall be irrevocable, provided that a notice of termination of the
Revolving Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the
effectiveness of other credit facilities or the receipt of the proceeds from the issuance of other
Indebtedness, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the
Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not
satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be permanent. Each
reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance
with their respective Commitments of such Class.

     SECTION 2.09   Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent
for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan of such
Lender on the Revolving Maturity Date (or, with respect to any Loans outstanding with respect to an
Extended Revolving Commitment, the maturity date applicable thereto), (ii) to the Administrative
Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Term Loan of such
Lender as provided in Section 2.10 and (iii) to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal
amount of each Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Revolving Maturity Date (or, with respect to
any Swingline Loans outstanding with respect to an Extended Revolving Commitment, the maturity date
applicable thereto) and the first date after such Swingline Loan is made that is the 15th or last
day of a calendar month and is at least three Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made,
provided that on each date that a Revolving Borrowing is made, the Borrower shall repay all
Swingline Loans that were outstanding on the date such Borrowing was requested.

     (b) The Loans made, and the Letters of Credit issued, by each Lender shall be evidenced by one
or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and evidenced by one or more entries in the
Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.04(b)(iv), in each case in
the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by each Lender shall be prima
facie evidence absent manifest error of the amount of the Loans made, and the Letters of Credit
issued, by the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so
record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the
Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any
conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of
the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative
Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Promptly following the request of any Lender
made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender
(through the Administrative Agent) a promissory note payable to such Lender or its registered
assigns, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each
Lender may attach schedules to its promissory note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if
applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto. The Borrower
shall have the right to review the entries made in the Lenders’ accounts maintained pursuant to
this clause from time to time upon reasonable prior notice during normal business hours.

     (c) In addition to the accounts and records referred to in Section 2.09(b), each Lender shall
maintain the Participant Register pursuant to Section 9.04(c).

61

 

     (d) Entries made in good faith by the Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to Section
9.04(b)(iv), and by each Lender in its account or accounts pursuant to Sections 2.09(b) and (c),
shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become
due and payable from the Borrower to, in the case of the Register, each Lender and, in the case of
such account or accounts, such Lender, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents,
notwithstanding notice to the contrary; provided that the failure of the Administrative
Agent or such Lender to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in the Register
or such account or accounts shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

     SECTION 2.10   Amortization of Term Loans. (a) (i) Subject to adjustment pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section, the Borrower
shall repay Tranche B Term Loan Borrowings on each date set forth below in the aggregate principal

     (b) To the extent not previously paid (i) all Tranche B Term Loans shall be due and payable on
the Tranche B Maturity Date and (ii) all Tranche B Euro Term Loans shall be due and payable on the
Tranche B Euro Maturity Date.

     (c) Any prepayment of Term Loans shall be applied ratably to the Tranche B Euro Term Loans and
Tranche B Term Loans according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the respective
Term Loans then held by the Term Lenders. Any prepayment of a Term Borrowing of any Class shall be
applied to reduce the subsequent scheduled repayments of the Term Borrowings of such Class to be
made pursuant to this Section or, except as otherwise provided in any Incremental Facility
Amendment, pursuant to the corresponding section of such Incremental Facility Amendment, (i) in the
case of prepayments pursuant to Section 2.11(a), to reduce the remaining scheduled repayments of
Term Borrowings pursuant to this Section as directed by the Borrower and (ii) in the case of
prepayments pursuant to Section 2.11(c) or 2.11(d), (A) first, to reduce, in direct order of
maturity, the scheduled repayments of the Term Borrowings to be made pursuant to this Section on
the four consecutive scheduled payment dates next following the date of such prepayment unless and
until each such scheduled repayment has been eliminated as a result of reductions thereunder and
(B) second, to reduce ratably the remaining scheduled repayments of the Term Borrowings. If the
initial aggregate amount of the Lenders’ Term Commitments of any Class exceeds the aggregate
principal amount of Term Loans of such Class that are made on the Restatement Effective Date, then
the scheduled
repayments of Term Borrowings of such Class to be made pursuant to this Section shall be
reduced ratably by an aggregate amount equal to such excess.

63

 

     (d) Prior to any repayment of any Term Borrowings of any Class hereunder, the Borrower shall
select the Borrowing or Borrowings of the applicable Class to be repaid and shall notify the
Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such election not later than 11:00
a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the scheduled date of such repayment. Each
repayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the repaid Borrowing.
Repayments of Term Borrowings shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the amount repaid.

     SECTION 2.11   Prepayment of Loans. (a) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing
in whole or in part, subject to the requirements of this Section; provided that in the
event that, on or prior to the first anniversary of the Restatement Effective Date, the Borrower
(i) makes any prepayment of Term Loans in connection with any Repricing Event or (ii) effects any
amendment of this Agreement resulting in a Repricing Event, the Borrower shall pay to the
Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each of the applicable Term Lenders, (x) in the
case of clause (i), a prepayment premium of 1% of the amount of the Term Loan being prepaid and (y)
in the case of clause (ii), an amount equal to 1% of the aggregate amount of the applicable Term
Loans outstanding immediately prior to such amendment.

     (b) In the event and on such occasion that the aggregate Global Revolving Exposures or
aggregate U.S. Revolving Exposures exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments of such Class, the
Borrower shall prepay Revolving Borrowings of such Class or, if applicable, Swingline Borrowings
(or, if no such Borrowings are outstanding, deposit cash collateral in an account with the
Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.05(j)) in an aggregate amount equal to such excess.

     (c) In the event and on each occasion that any Net Proceeds are received by or on behalf of
Holdings, the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary in respect of any Prepayment Event, the
Borrower shall, within five Business Days after such Net Proceeds are received, prepay Term
Borrowings in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the amount of such Net Proceeds,
provided that, in the case of any event described in clause (a) or (b) of the definition of
the term “Prepayment Event”, if the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries reinvest (or commit to
reinvest) the Net Proceeds from such event (or a portion thereof) within 12 months (or, in the case
of a Permitted Sale and Leaseback Transaction, within 6 months) after receipt of such Net Proceeds
(or, if the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary enters into a legally binding commitment to
reinvest such Net Proceeds within any applicable 12-month period, within 180 days of the date of
such legally binding commitment) to acquire, restore, repair or replace assets useful in (or,
pursuant to a Permitted Acquisition, to acquire any Person engaged in) its business or any other
business not otherwise prohibited by Section 6.03(b) (provided that, in each case, the
Borrower has delivered to the Administrative Agent within 15 Business Days after such Net Proceeds
are received a certificate of a Financial Officer stating its intention to do so and certifying
that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), then no prepayment shall be required
pursuant to this paragraph in respect of the Net Proceeds in respect of such event (or the portion
of such Net Proceeds specified in such certificate, if applicable) (the “Reinvestment 
Deferred Amount”) except to the extent of any such Net Proceeds therefrom that have
not been so reinvested by the end of such 12 month (or, in the case of a Permitted Sale and
Leaseback Transaction, 6 month) period (or, if the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary enters
into a legally binding commitment to reinvest such Net Proceeds within any applicable 12-month
period, within 180 days of the date of such legally binding commitment), at which time a prepayment
shall be required in an amount equal to the Reinvestment Deferred Amount that has not been so
reinvested.

64

 

     (d) Following the end of each fiscal year of the Borrower, commencing with the first fiscal
year ending on or after June 30, 2011, the Borrower shall prepay Term Borrowings in an aggregate
amount equal to 50% of Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year, provided that (i) such amount
shall be reduced by the aggregate amount of prepayments of Term Loans made pursuant to Section
2.11(a) during such fiscal year, (ii) such prepayment shall be in an aggregate amount equal to 25%
of Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year if the Total Leverage Ratio at the end of such fiscal year
is less than 4.50 to 1.00 and greater than 3.50 to 1.00, and (iii) no such prepayment shall be
required if the Total Leverage Ratio at the end of such fiscal year is less than 3.50 to 1.00. Each
prepayment pursuant to this paragraph shall be made on or within five Business Days of the date on
which financial statements are delivered pursuant to Section 5.01 with respect to the fiscal year
for which Excess Cash Flow is being calculated (and in any event within 95 days after the end of
such fiscal year).

     (e) Prior to any optional or mandatory prepayment of Borrowings hereunder, the Borrower shall
select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be prepaid and shall specify such selection in the notice of
such prepayment pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section. In the event of any optional or
mandatory prepayment of Term Borrowings made at a time when Term Borrowings of more than one Class
remain outstanding, the Borrower shall select Term Borrowings to be prepaid so that the aggregate
amount of such prepayment is allocated between Tranche B Term Loan Borrowings, the Tranche B Euro
Term Borrowings and, to the extent provided in the Incremental Facility Amendment for any Class of
Incremental Term Loans, the Borrowings of such Class pro rata based on the aggregate principal
amount of outstanding Borrowings of each such Class; provided that any Tranche B Lender,
Tranche B Euro Term Lender and/or Extended Term Lender (and, to the extent provided in the
Incremental Facility Amendment for any Class of Incremental Term Loans, any Lender that holds
Incremental Term Loans of such Class) may elect, by notice to the Administrative Agent by telephone
(confirmed by telecopy) at least one Business Day prior to the prepayment date, to decline all or
any portion of any prepayment of its Tranche B Term Loans, Tranche B Euro Term Loans, Extended Term
Loans or Incremental Term Loans of any such Class pursuant to this Section (other than an optional
prepayment pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section, which may not be declined), in which case the
aggregate amount of the prepayment that would have been applied to prepay Tranche B Term Loans,
Tranche B Euro Term Loans, Extended Term Loans or Incremental Term Loans of any such Class but was
so declined shall be applied to the prepayment of Tranche B Term Loans, Tranche B Euro Term Loans,
Extended Term Loans and Incremental Term Loans of any Class for which prepayment was not declined
on a pro rata basis based on the outstanding amounts thereof.

65

 

     (f) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a
Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender) by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) or
by telecopy of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurocurrency
Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time (or, in the case of a Eurocurrency
Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency, not later than 11:00 a.m., London time), three
Business Days before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing,
not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment or
(iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time,
on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment
date, the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a
mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment,
provided that a notice of optional prepayment may state that such notice is conditional
upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or the receipt of the proceeds from the issuance
of other Indebtedness, in which case such notice of prepayment may be revoked by the Borrower (by
notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified date) if such condition is not
satisfied. Promptly following receipt of any such notice (other than a notice relating solely to
Swingline Loans), the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each
partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an
advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02, except as necessary to apply
fully the required amount of a mandatory prepayment. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be
applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by
accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.13.

     (g) (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement (including the
penultimate sentence of Section 2.11(f) or 2.18(c)) or any other Loan Document, the Borrower shall
have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay Term Loans to the Lenders at a discount
to the par value of such Loans and on a non pro rata basis (each, a “Discounted Voluntary
Prepayment”) pursuant to the procedures described in this Section 2.11(g), provided
that (A) the aggregate amount expended by the Borrower in connection with all Discounted Voluntary
Prepayments shall not exceed $550,000,000, (B) on the date of the Discounted Prepayment Option
Notice and after giving effect to the Discounted Voluntary Prepayment, no more than $50,000,000
shall be outstanding in Revolving Loans, (C) any Discounted Voluntary Prepayment shall be offered
to all Term Lenders on a pro rata basis, (D) after giving effect to the Discounted Voluntary
Prepayment, the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans that are held by Sponsor Affiliated
Lenders (by assignment) shall not exceed 20% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Term
Loans then outstanding and (E) the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, together
with each Discounted Prepayment Option Notice, a certificate of a Financial Officer of the Borrower
(1) stating that no Event of Default under clauses (a) or (b) of Article VII or under clauses (h),
(i) or (j) (in each case, with respect to the Borrower) of Article VII has occurred and is
continuing or would result from the Discounted Voluntary Prepayment, (2) stating that each of the
conditions to such Discounted Voluntary Prepayment contained in this Section 2.11(g) has been
satisfied and (3) specifying the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans to be prepaid pursuant to
such Discounted Voluntary Prepayment.

66

 

     (ii) To the extent the Borrower seeks to make a Discounted Voluntary Prepayment, the Borrower
will provide written notice to the Administrative Agent substantially in the form of Exhibit I
hereto (each, a “Discounted Prepayment Option Notice”) that the Borrower desires to
prepay Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount specified therein by the Borrower (each, a
“Proposed Discounted Prepayment Amount”), in each case at a discount to the par value of
such Loans as specified below. The Proposed Discounted Prepayment Amount of any Loans shall not be
less than $25,000,000. The Discounted Prepayment Option Notice shall further specify with respect
to the proposed Discounted Voluntary Prepayment (A) the Proposed Discounted Prepayment Amount for
Loans to be prepaid, (B) a discount range (which may be a single percentage) selected by the
Borrower with respect to such proposed Discounted Voluntary Prepayment equal to a percentage of par
of the principal amount of the Loans to be prepaid (the “Discount Range”), and (C) the date
by which Lenders are required to indicate their election to participate in such proposed Discounted
Voluntary Prepayment, which shall be at least five Business Days following the date of the
Discounted Prepayment Option Notice (the “Acceptance Date”).

     (iii) Upon receipt of a Discounted Prepayment Option Notice, the Administrative Agent shall
promptly notify each applicable Lender thereof. On or prior to the Acceptance Date, each such
Lender may specify by written notice substantially in the form of Exhibit J hereto (each, a
“Lender Participation Notice”) to the Administrative Agent (A) a maximum discount to par
(the “Acceptable Discount”) within the Discount Range (for example, a Lender specifying a
discount to par of 20% would accept a purchase price of 80% of the par value of the Loans to be
prepaid) and (B) a maximum principal amount (subject to rounding requirements specified by the
Administrative Agent) of the Loans to be prepaid held by such Lender with respect to which such
Lender is willing to permit a Discounted Voluntary Prepayment at the Acceptable Discount
(“Offered Loans”). Based on the Acceptable Discounts and principal amounts of the Loans to
be prepaid specified by the Lenders in the applicable Lender Participation Notice, the
Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower, shall determine the applicable discount
for such Loans to be prepaid (the “Applicable Discount”), which Applicable Discount shall
be (A) the percentage specified by the Borrower if the Borrower has selected a single percentage
pursuant to Section 2.11(g)(ii)) for the Discounted Voluntary Prepayment or (B) otherwise, the
highest Acceptable Discount at which the Borrower can pay the Proposed Discounted Prepayment Amount
in full (determined by adding the principal amounts of Offered Loans commencing with the Offered
Loans with the highest Acceptable Discount); provided, however, that in the event
that such Proposed Discounted Prepayment Amount cannot be repaid in full at any Acceptable
Discount, the Applicable Discount shall be the lowest Acceptable Discount specified by the Lenders
that is within the Discount Range. The Applicable Discount shall be applicable for all Lenders who
have offered to participate in the Voluntary Discounted Prepayment and have Qualifying Loans (as
defined below). Any Lender with outstanding Loans to be prepaid whose Lender Participation Notice
is not received by the Administrative Agent by the Acceptance Date shall be deemed to have declined
to accept a Discounted Voluntary Prepayment of any of its Loans at any discount to their par value
within the Applicable Discount.

     (iv) The Borrower shall make a Discounted Voluntary Prepayment by prepaying those Loans to be
prepaid (or the respective portions thereof) offered by the Lenders (“Qualifying Lenders”)
that specify an Acceptable Discount that is equal to or greater than the Applicable Discount
(“Qualifying Loans”) at the Applicable Discount, provided that if the aggregate
proceeds required to prepay all Qualifying Loans (disregarding any interest payable at such time)
would exceed the amount of aggregate proceeds required to prepay the Proposed Discounted Prepayment
Amount, such amounts in each case calculated by applying the Applicable Discount,

67

 

the Borrower shall prepay such Qualifying Loans ratably among the Qualifying Lenders based on
their respective principal amounts of such Qualifying Loans (subject to rounding requirements
specified by the Administrative Agent). If the aggregate proceeds required to prepay all
Qualifying Loans (disregarding any interest payable at such time) would be less than the amount of
aggregate proceeds required to prepay the Proposed Discounted Prepayment Amount, such amounts in
each case calculated by applying the Applicable Discount, the Borrower shall prepay all Qualifying
Loans.

     (v) Each Discounted Voluntary Prepayment shall be made within five Business Days of the
Acceptance Date (or such later date as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably agree, given the
time required to calculate the Applicable Discount and determine the amount and holders of
Qualifying Loans), without premium or penalty (but subject to Section 2.16), upon irrevocable
notice substantially in the form of Exhibit K hereto (each a “Discounted Voluntary Prepayment
Notice”), delivered to the Administrative Agent no later than 1:00 p.m. New York City Time,
three Business Days prior to the date of such Discounted Voluntary Prepayment, which notice shall
specify the date and amount of the Discounted Voluntary Prepayment and the Applicable Discount
determined by the Administrative Agent. Upon receipt of any Discounted Voluntary Prepayment
Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. If any
Discounted Voluntary Prepayment Notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due
and payable to the applicable Lenders, subject to the Applicable Discount on the applicable Loans,
on the date specified therein together with accrued interest (on the par principal amount) to but
not including such date on the amount prepaid. The par principal amount of each Discounted
Voluntary Prepayment of a Term Loan shall be applied ratably to reduce the remaining installments
of such Class of Term Loans (as applicable).

     (vi) To the extent not expressly provided for herein, each Discounted Voluntary Prepayment
shall be consummated pursuant to reasonable procedures (including as to timing, rounding, minimum
amounts, Type and Interest Periods and calculation of Applicable Discount in accordance with
Section 2.11(g)(ii) above) established by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower.

     (vii) Prior to the delivery of a Discounted Voluntary Prepayment Notice, (A) upon written
notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may withdraw or modify its offer to make a
Discounted Voluntary Prepayment pursuant to any Discounted Prepayment Option Notice and (B) no
Lender may withdraw its offer to participate in a Discounted Voluntary Prepayment pursuant to any
Lender Participation Notice unless the terms of such proposed Discounted Voluntary Prepayment have
been modified by the Borrower after the date of such Lender Participation Notice.

     (viii) Nothing in this Section 2.11(g) shall require the Borrower to undertake any Discounted
Voluntary Prepayment.

     (h) If at the end of any accrual period (as defined in Section 1272(a)(5) of the Code) ending
after the fifth anniversary of the Restatement Effective Date, the aggregate amount of the accrued
and unpaid original issue discount (as defined in Section 1273(a)(1) of the Code) on a Loan would,
but for this paragraph, exceed an amount equal to the product of the Loan’s issue price (as defined
in Sections 1273(b) and 1274(a) of the Code) multiplied by the yield to

68

 

maturity (as defined in Section 1.1272-1(b)(1)(i) of the United States Treasury Regulations)
(the “Maximum Accrual”), all accrued and unpaid interest and original issue discount on the
Loan as of the end of such accrual period in excess of an amount equal to the Maximum Accrual shall
be paid in cash by Borrower to the Lenders (the “AHYDO Interest Payment”) and will be
applied against and reduce the outstanding principal amount of such Loan. For the avoidance of
doubt, this Section shall be construed so as to cause the Loans to not be treated as having been
issued with “significant original issue discount” within the meaning of Section 163(i)(2) of the
Code.

     SECTION 2.12   Fees. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender
a commitment fee, which shall accrue at a rate equal to the Commitment Fee Rate on the average
daily unused amount of the Revolving Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including
the Effective Date to but excluding the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate. Accrued
commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the third Business Day following the last day of
March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Revolving Commitments
terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date. All commitment fees
shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of
days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For purposes of computing
commitment fees, a Global Revolving Commitment of a Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent
of the outstanding Global Revolving Loans and LC Exposure of such Lender (and the Swingline
Exposure of such Lender shall be disregarded for such purpose).

     (b) The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Global
Revolving Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which
shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate applicable to
Eurocurrency Revolving Loans on the average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding
any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and
including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s
Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure,
and (ii) to each Issuing Bank a fronting fee in respect of each Letter of Credit issued by such
Issuing Bank, which shall accrue at a rate equal to 0.25% per annum on the average daily amount of
the LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements)
during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of
termination of the Revolving Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure,
as well as such Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or
extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and
fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of
each year shall be payable on the third Business Day following such last day, commencing on the
first such date to occur after the Effective Date, provided that all such fees shall be
payable on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after
the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees
payable to any Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after
demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360
days (or, in the case any such fee is payable in Sterling, 365 days) and shall be payable for the
actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

69

 

     (c) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable
in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent.

     (d) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds,
to the Administrative Agent (or to the applicable Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it)
for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the Lenders entitled
thereto. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

     SECTION 2.13   Interest. (a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing (including each Swingline Loan) shall bear
interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

     (b) The Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted
Eurocurrency Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate.

     (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or
other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity,
upon acceleration or otherwise, after giving effect to any applicable grace period, such overdue
amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum (the “Default
Rate”) equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of or interest on any Loan, 2.00% plus the
rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or
(ii) in the case of any other amount, 2.00% plus the rate applicable to ABR Revolving Loans as
provided in paragraph (a) of this Section; provided that no interest at the Default Rate
shall accrue or be payable to a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting
Lender.

     (d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date
for such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Loans, upon termination of the Revolving Commitments,
provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be
payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a
prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Revolving Availability Period), accrued
interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment
or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan prior to the end of
the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the
effective date of such conversion.

     (e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that
(i) interest on Loans denominated in Sterling and (ii) interest computed by reference to the
Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be
computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be
payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).
The applicable Alternate Base Rate or Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate shall be determined by the
Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

     SECTION 2.14   Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing
denominated in any currency:

70

 

     (a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent
manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted
Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period; or

     (b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted Eurocurrency
Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of
making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by
telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent
notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer
exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing denominated
in such currency to, or continuation of any Borrowing denominated in such currency as, a
Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be ineffective, and any Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in such
currency that is requested to be continued (A) if such currency is the U.S. Dollar, shall be
converted to an ABR Borrowing on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto and (B) if
such currency is an Alternative Currency, shall be repaid on the last day of the Interest Period
applicable thereto, and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated
in such currency (A) if such currency is the U.S. Dollar, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR
Borrowing and (B) if such currency is an Alternative Currency, such Borrowing Request shall be
ineffective.

     SECTION 2.15   Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall:

     (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance
charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit
extended by, any Lender or Issuing Bank (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the
Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate); or

     (ii) impose on any Lender or Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition,
cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of
Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or
maintaining any Eurocurrency Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to
increase the cost to such Lender or Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any
Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or
Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to
such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or
reduction suffered.

71

 

     (b) If any Lender or Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital
requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or
Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company, if
any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of
Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level
below that which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding
company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or
such Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding
company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such
Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company
for any such reduction suffered.

     (c) A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary
to compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified
in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive
absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the
amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 Business Days after receipt thereof.

     (d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any Issuing Bank to demand compensation
pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s right to
demand such compensation, provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a
Lender or an Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred
more than 270 days prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies
the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such
Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor, provided
further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is
retroactive, then the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of
retroactive effect thereof.

     SECTION 2.16   Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the
last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default),
(b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period
applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Revolving Loan or
Term Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such
notice may be revoked under Section 2.11(f) and is revoked in accordance therewith) or (d) the
assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable
thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19 or Section 9.02(c), then,
in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense
attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurocurrency Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any
Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of
(i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such
event not occurred, at the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan,
for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period
therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would
have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest that would accrue on
such principal amount for such period at the interest rate that such Lender would bid were it to
bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from
other banks in the eurocurrency market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any
amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be
delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay
such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

72

 

     SECTION 2.17   Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any
Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or
Other Taxes, provided that if a Withholding Agent is required to deduct any Indemnified
Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary
so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums
payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank (as the case may be)
receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii)
the applicable Withholding Agent shall make such deductions and (iii) the applicable Withholding
Agent shall pay the full amounts deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with
applicable law.

     (b) Without limiting the provisions of paragraph (a) above, the Borrower shall timely pay any
Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

     (c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Bank,
within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other
Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, on or
with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Loan
Document (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to
amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising
therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were
correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority, provided
that the Borrower shall not be obligated to make payment to the Administrative Agent, such Lender
or such Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section in respect of penalties, interest and other
liabilities attributable to any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes if (i) written demand therefor has
not been made by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank within 30 days from the
date on which the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank knew of the imposition of
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the relevant Governmental Authority, (ii) such penalties,
interest and other liabilities have accrued after the Borrower has indemnified or paid any
additional amount pursuant to this Section or (iii) such penalties, interest and other liabilities
are attributable to the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Administrative Agent, such
Lender or such Issuing Bank. After the Administrative Agent, a Lender or an Issuing Bank learns of
the imposition of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such
Issuing Bank, as the case may be, will act in good faith to promptly notify the Borrower of its
obligations hereunder. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the
Borrower by a Lender or an Issuing Bank, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on
behalf of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. As soon as
practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental
Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy
of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return
reporting
such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent.

73

 

     (d) Each Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent for the full amount of any Taxes or
similar charges imposed by any Governmental Authority that are attributable to such Lender and that
are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent, together with all reasonable costs and expenses
arising therefrom or with respect thereto, as determined by the Administrative Agent in good faith.
A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the
Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

     (e) Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax
under the law of the jurisdiction in which the applicable Loan Party is located, or any treaty to
which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement or any other Loan
Document shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or
times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed
by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will
permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate, provided that
such Foreign Lender has received written notice from the applicable Loan Party or Administrative
Agent, as the case may be, advising it of the availability of such exemption or reduction and
supplying all applicable documentation. In addition, each Lender that is a “United States Person”
as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by law, U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form
W-9 (or any successor form) certifying that such Lender is exempt from United States federal
withholding tax.

     (f) If the Administrative Agent, a Lender or an Issuing Bank determines that it is entitled to
receive a refund from a Governmental Authority in respect of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to
which it has been indemnified by the Borrower pursuant to this Section, or with respect to which
the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall promptly notify the
Borrower of the availability of such refund and shall, within 30 days after receipt of a request by
the Borrower (whether as a result of notification that it has made to the Borrower or otherwise),
make a claim to such Governmental Authority for such refund at the Borrower’s expense. If the
Administrative Agent, an Issuing Bank or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has
received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by
the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this
Section, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity
payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section with respect to the
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of
the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender and without interest (other than any
interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund),
provided, that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Issuing
Bank or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties,
interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative
Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or
such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section shall not
be construed to require the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender to make available
its tax returns (or any
other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any
other Person.

74

 

     SECTION 2.18   Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Setoffs. (a) The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it under any Loan Document
(whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable
under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, or otherwise) prior to the time expressly required hereunder or
under such other Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, prior
to 12:00 noon, New York City time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without
setoff or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of
the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for
purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative
Agent to the applicable account designated to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent, except
payments to be made directly to an Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein
and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 shall be made directly to
the Persons entitled thereto and payments pursuant to other Loan Documents shall be made to the
Persons specified therein. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by
it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt
thereof. If any payment under any Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day,
the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of any
payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All
payments under each Loan Document of principal or interest in respect of any Loan (or of any
breakage indemnity in respect of any Loan) shall be made in the currency of such Loan, and, except
as otherwise expressly set forth in any Loan Document, all other payments under each Loan Document
shall be made in U.S. Dollars.

     (b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative
Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then
due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due
hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest
and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed
LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with
the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties.

     (c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise,
obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Revolving Loans, Term Loans
or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment
of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Revolving Loans, Term Loans and
participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the
proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall
purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Revolving Loans, Term Loans and
participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so
that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the
aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Revolving Loans, Term
Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans,

75

 

provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of
the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the
purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions
of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to
and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as
consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or
participations in LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant. The Borrower consents to the
foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender
acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower
rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender
were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

     (d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the
date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the
applicable Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative
Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and
may, in reliance upon such assumption and in its sole discretion, distribute to the Lenders or such
Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact
made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank, as the case may be,
severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed
to such Lender or Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such
amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at
the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent
in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

     (e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section
2.04(c), 2.05(d) or (e), 2.06(a) or (b), 2.18(d) or 9.03(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in
its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter
received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s
obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

     (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section or elsewhere in this
Agreement, the Borrower may (i) make prepayments of Term Loans at a discount to the par value of
such Loans and on a non pro rata basis in accordance with Section 2.11(g) and (ii) extend the final
maturity of Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments in connection with an Extension that is
permitted under Section 2.22 without being obligated to effect such extensions on a pro rata basis
among the Lenders (it being understood that no such extension (x) shall constitute a payment or
prepayment of any Term Loans or Revolving Loans, as applicable, for purposes of this Section or (y)
shall reduce the amount of any scheduled amortization payment due under Section 2.10, except that
the amount of any scheduled amortization payment due to a Lender of Extended Term Loans may be
reduced to the extent provided pursuant to the express terms of the respective Extension Offer)
without giving rise to any violation of this Section or any other provision of this Agreement.
Furthermore, the Borrower may take all actions contemplated by Section 2.22 in connection with any
Extension (including modifying pricing, amortization and repayments or prepayments of Extended
Revolving Commitments or Extended Term Loans), and in each case such actions taken in accordance
with Section 2.22 shall be
permitted hereunder, and the differing payments contemplated therein shall be permitted
without giving rise to any violation of this Section or any other provision of this Agreement.

76

 

     SECTION 2.19   Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if the Borrower is required
to pay any additional amount to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender or any
Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, then the
Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a
different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and
obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of the
Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would
eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17, as the case may be, in the
future and (ii) would not subject the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender to any
unreimbursed cost or expense and would not be inconsistent with its reasonable internal policies or
otherwise be disadvantageous to the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender. The
Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative
Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

     (b) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if the Borrower is required to
pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender
pursuant to Section 2.17, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, at
its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such
Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions
contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an
assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender
accepts such assignment), provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior
written consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if a Revolving Commitment is being assigned, each
Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such
Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and
participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and
all other amounts payable to it hereunder from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding
principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), (iii)
the Borrower or such assignee shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the processing and
recordation fee specified in Section 9.04(b) and (iv) in the case of any such assignment resulting
from a claim for compensation under Section 2.15 or payments required to be made pursuant to
Section 2.17, such assignment will result in a material reduction in such compensation or payments.
A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a
result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise (including as a result of any action taken by such
Lender under paragraph (a) above), the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such
assignment and delegation cease to apply.

     SECTION 2.20   Incremental Facility. (a) At any time and from time to time, subject to the terms and conditions set forth
herein, the Borrower may, by notice to the Administrative Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent
shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders), request to add one or more additional
tranches of term loans (the “Incremental Term 

77

 

Loans”) or one or more increases in the Revolving Commitments (the “Incremental
Revolving Commitments”), provided that at the time of each such request and upon the
effectiveness of each Incremental Facility Amendment, (A) no Default or Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing or shall result therefrom, (B) the Borrower shall be in compliance on a
Pro Forma Basis with the covenants contained in Sections 6.12 and 6.13 recomputed as of the last
day of the most-recently ended Test Period for which financial statements have been delivered
pursuant to Section 5.01(a) or (b), (C) the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio of the Borrower, computed
on a Pro Forma Basis as of the last day of the most-recently ended Test Period for which financial
statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a) or (b), shall be no greater than the
Senior Secured Leverage Ratio of the Borrower on the Effective Date (after giving effect to the
Transactions) and (D) the Borrower shall have delivered a certificate of a Financial Officer to the
effect set forth in clauses (A), (B) and (C) above, together with reasonably detailed calculations
demonstrating compliance with clauses (B) and (C) above. Notwithstanding anything to contrary
herein, the principal amount of any Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Commitments
shall not exceed the Incremental Amount at such time. Each tranche of Incremental Term Loans and
Incremental Revolving Commitments shall be in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and be in an
aggregate principal amount that is not less than $50,000,000 in case of Incremental Term Loans or
$25,000,000 in case of Incremental Revolving Commitments, provided that such amount may be
less than the applicable minimum amount if such amount represents all the remaining availability
under the Incremental Amount set forth above.

     (b) Any Incremental Term Loans (i) shall rank pari passu or junior in right of payment
in respect of the Collateral and with the Obligations in respect of the Revolving Commitments, the
Tranche B Term Loans and the Tranche B Euro Term Loans, (ii) for purposes of prepayments, shall be
treated substantially the same as (and in any event no more favorably than) the Tranche B Term
Loans and Tranche B Euro Term Loans and (iii) other than amortization, pricing or maturity date,
shall have the same terms as the Tranche B Term Loans or such terms as are reasonably satisfactory
to the Administrative Agent, provided that (A) if the Applicable Rate (which, for such
purposes only, shall be deemed to include all upfront or similar fees or original issue discount
payable to all Lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans and any LIBO or ABR floor applicable
to such Incremental Term Loans) relating to any Incremental Term Loan exceeds the Applicable Rate
(which, for such purposes only, shall be deemed to include all upfront or similar fees or original
issue discount payable to all Lenders providing the Tranche B Term Loans or Tranche B Euro Term
Loans, as applicable, and any EURO LIBO, LIBO or ABR floor applicable to the Tranche B Term Loans
or Tranche B Euro Term Loans, as applicable) relating to the Tranche B Term Loans or Tranche B Euro
Term Loans, as applicable, immediately prior to the effectiveness of the applicable Incremental
Facility Amendment by more than 0.25%, the Applicable Rate relating to the Tranche B Term Loans or
Tranche B Euro Term Loans, as applicable, shall be adjusted to be equal to the Applicable Rate
(which, for such purposes only, shall be deemed to include all upfront or similar fees or original
issue discount payable to all Lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans and any LIBO or ABR
floor applicable to such Incremental Term Loans) relating to such Incremental Term Loans minus
0.25%, (B) any Incremental Term Loan shall not have a final maturity date earlier than the Tranche
B Maturity Date or the Tranche B Euro Maturity Date, as applicable, and (C) any Incremental Term
Loan shall not have a weighted average life that is shorter than the weighted average life of the
then-remaining Tranche B Term Loans or Tranche

78

 

B Euro Term Loans, as applicable. Any Incremental Revolving Commitment shall be on terms
(other than pricing) and pursuant to the documentation applicable to the Revolving Commitments;
provided that if the Applicable Rate (which, for such purposes only, shall be deemed to
include all upfront or similar fees or original issue discount payable to all Lenders providing
such Incremental Revolving Commitments and any LIBO or ABR floor applicable to such Incremental
Revolving Commitments) relating to any Incremental Revolving Commitments exceeds the Applicable
Rate (which, for such purposes only, shall be deemed to include all upfront or similar fees or
original issue discount payable to all Lenders providing the Revolving Commitments) relating to the
Revolving Commitments immediately prior to the effectiveness of the applicable Incremental Facility
Amendment by more than 0.25%, the Applicable Rate relating to the Revolving Commitments shall be
adjusted to be equal to the Applicable Rate (which, for such purposes only, shall be deemed to
include all upfront or similar fees or original issue discount payable to all Lenders providing
such Incremental Revolving Commitments and any LIBO or ABR floor applicable to such Incremental
Revolving Commitments) relating to such Incremental Revolving Commitments minus 0.25%.

     (c) Each notice from the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall set forth the requested
amount and proposed terms of the relevant Incremental Term Loans and/or Incremental Revolving
Commitments. Any additional bank, financial institution, existing Lender or other Person that
elects to extend Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Commitments shall be reasonably
satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (any such bank, financial institution,
existing Lender or other Person being called an “Additional Lender”) and, if not already a
Lender, shall become a Lender under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (an “Incremental
Facility Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed
by Holdings, the Borrower, such Additional Lender and the Administrative Agent. No Incremental
Facility Amendment shall require the consent of any Lenders other than the Additional Lenders with
respect to such Incremental Facility Amendment. No Lender shall be obligated to provided any
Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Commitments, unless it so agrees. Commitments in
respect of any Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Commitments shall become Commitments
under this Agreement. An Incremental Facility Amendment may, without the consent of any other
Lenders, effect such amendments to any Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the
opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section (including to provide
for voting provisions applicable to the Additional Lenders comparable to the provisions of clause
(B) of the second proviso of Section 9.02(b)). The effectiveness of any Incremental Facility
Amendment shall, unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent and the Additional Lenders,
be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof (each, an “Incremental Facility Closing
Date”) of each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (it being understood that all
references to “the date of such Borrowing” in Section 4.02 shall be deemed to refer to the
Incremental Facility Closing Date). The proceeds of any Incremental Term Loans will be used only
for general corporate purposes (including Permitted Acquisitions). Upon each increase in the
Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section, each Revolving Lender immediately prior to such
increase will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each Lender
providing a portion of the Incremental Revolving Commitment (each a “Incremental Revolving
Lender”) in respect of such increase, and each such Incremental Revolving Lender will
automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, a portion of such Revolving
Lender’s participations hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans such

79

 

that, after giving effect to each such deemed assignment and assumption of participations, the
percentage of the aggregate outstanding (i) participations hereunder in Letters of Credit and (ii)
participations hereunder in Swingline Loans held by each Revolving Lender (including each such
Incremental Revolving Lender) will equal the percentage of the aggregate Revolving Commitments of
all Revolving Lenders represented by such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment. The
Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the minimum borrowing, pro
rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in
this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to the immediately preceding
sentence.

     SECTION 2.21   Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Revolving Lender
becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender
is a Defaulting Lender:

     (a) fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Revolving Commitment of such
Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(a);

     (b) the Revolving Commitment and Revolving Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be
included in determining whether all Lenders or the Required Lenders have taken or may take any
action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to
Section 9.02); provided, that any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent
of all Lenders or each affected Lender which affects such Defaulting Lender disproportionately when
compared to the other affected Lenders, or increases or extends the Revolving Commitment of any
Defaulting Lender, shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender;

     (c) if any Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure exists at the time such Lender becomes a
Defaulting Lender then:

     (i) all or any part of the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender
shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective
Applicable Percentages but only to the extent the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’
Revolving Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure
does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Commitments;

     (ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially,
be effected, the Borrower shall within three Business Days following notice by the
Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Swingline Exposure and (y) second, cash
collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing Bank only the Borrower’s obligations
corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial
reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in
Section 2.05(j) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding;

     (iii) if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC
Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees
to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(b) with respect to such
Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure
is cash collateralized;

80

 

     (iv) if the LC Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to clause
(i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.12(a) and Section
2.12(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Applicable
Percentages; and

     (v) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither
reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without
prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Bank or any other Lender hereunder, all
letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.12(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s
LC Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Bank until and to the extent that such LC
Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and

     (d) so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender shall not be required
to fund any Swingline Loan and the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase
any Letter of Credit, unless it has received assurances satisfactory to it that non-Defaulting
Lenders will cover the related exposure and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in
accordance with Section 2.21(c), and participating interests in any newly made Swingline Loan or
any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a
manner consistent with Section 2.21(c)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate
therein).

     In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing
Bank each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such
Revolving Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure of the
Revolving Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Revolving Lender’s
Commitment and on such date such Revolving Lender shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Loans
of the other Revolving Lenders (other than Swingline Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall
determine may be necessary in order for such Revolving Lender to hold such Revolving Loans in
accordance with its Applicable Percentage.

     SECTION 2.22   Extensions of Term Loans and Revolving Commitments. 

     (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, pursuant to one or more offers
(each, an “Extension Offer”) made from time to time by the Borrower to all Lenders of Term
Loans with a like maturity date or Revolving Commitments with a like maturity date, in each case on
a pro rata basis (based on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the respective Term Loans
or Revolving Commitments with a like maturity date, as the case may be) and on the same terms to
each such Lender, the Borrower is hereby permitted to consummate from time to time transactions
with individual Lenders that accept the terms contained in such Extension Offers to extend the
maturity date of each such Lender’s Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments and otherwise modify
the terms of such Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments pursuant to the terms of the relevant
Extension Offer (including, without limitation, by increasing the interest rate or fees payable in
respect of such Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings) and/or modifying
the amortization schedule

81

 

in respect of such Lender’s Term Loans) (each, an “Extension”, and each group of Term
Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, in each case as so extended, as well as the original
Term Loans and the original Revolving Commitments (in each case not so extended), being a
“tranche”; any Extended Term Loans shall constitute a separate tranche of Term Loans from
the tranche of Term Loans from which they were converted, and any Extended Revolving Commitments
shall constitute a separate tranche of Revolving Commitments from the tranche of Revolving
Commitments from which they were converted), so long as the following terms are satisfied: (i) no
Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time the offering document
in respect of an Extension Offer is delivered to the Lenders, (ii) except as to interest rates,
fees and final maturity (which shall be determined by the Borrower and set forth in the relevant
Extension Offer), the Revolving Commitment of any Revolving Lender that agrees to an extension with
respect to such Revolving Commitment (an “Extending Revolving Lender”) extended pursuant to
an Extension (an “Extended Revolving Commitment”), and the related outstandings, shall be a
Revolving Commitment (or related outstandings, as the case may be) with the same terms as the
original Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings); provided that (x) subject to the
provisions of Sections 2.04(d) and 2.05(n) to the extent dealing with Swingline Loans and Letters
of Credit which mature or expire after a maturity date when there exist Extended Revolving
Commitments with a longer maturity date, all Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit shall be
participated in on a pro rata basis by all Lenders with Revolving Commitments in accordance with
their Applicable Percentage of the Revolving Commitments (and except as provided in Sections
2.04(d) and 2.05(n), without giving effect to changes thereto on an earlier maturity date with
respect to Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit theretofore incurred or issued) and all borrowings
under Revolving Commitments and repayments thereunder shall be made on a pro rata basis (except for
(A) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Extended Revolving Commitments (and related
outstandings) and (B) repayments required upon the maturity date of the non-extending Revolving
Commitments) and (y) at no time shall there be Revolving Commitments hereunder (including Extended
Revolving Commitments and any original Revolving Commitments) which have more than three different
maturity dates, (iii) except as to interest rates, fees, amortization, final maturity date,
premium, required prepayment dates and participation in prepayments (which shall, subject to
immediately succeeding clauses (iv), (v) and (vi), be determined between the Borrower and set forth
in the relevant Extension Offer), the Term Loans of any Term Lender that agrees to an extension
with respect to such Term Loans (an “Extending Term Lender”) extended pursuant to any
Extension (“Extended Term Loans”) shall have the same terms as the tranche of Term Loans
subject to such Extension Offer, (iv) the final maturity date of any Extended Term Loans shall be
no earlier than the then latest maturity date hereunder and the amortization schedule applicable to
Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.10 for periods prior to the Tranche B Maturity Date or Tranche B
Euro Maturity Date, as applicable, may not be increased, (v) the weighted average life of any
Extended Term Loans shall be no shorter than the remaining weighted average life of the Term Loans
extended thereby, (vi) any Extended Term Loans may participate on a pro rata basis or a less than
pro rata basis (but not greater than a pro rata basis) in any voluntary or mandatory repayments or
prepayments hereunder, in each case as specified in the respective Extension Offer, (vii) if the
aggregate principal amount of Term Loans (calculated on the face amount thereof) or Revolving
Commitments, as the case may be, in respect of which Term Lenders or Revolving Lenders, as the case
may be, shall have accepted the relevant Extension Offer shall exceed the maximum aggregate
principal amount of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as

82

 

the case may be, offered to be extended by the Borrower pursuant to such Extension Offer, then
the Term Loans or Revolving Loans, as the case may be, of such Term Lenders or Revolving Lenders,
as the case may be, shall be extended ratably up to such maximum amount based on the respective
principal amounts (but not to exceed actual holdings of record) with respect to which such Term
Lenders or Revolving Lenders, as the case may be, have accepted such Extension Offer, (viii) all
documentation in respect of such Extension shall be consistent with the foregoing, (ix) any
applicable Minimum Extension Condition shall be satisfied unless waived by the Borrower and (x) the
Minimum Tranche Amount shall be satisfied unless waived by the Administrative Agent.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) if the interest rate margins (which, for such purposes
only, shall be deemed to include all upfront or similar fees or original issue discount payable to
all Lenders providing Extended Term Loans and any EURO LIBO, LIBO or ABR floor applicable to such
Extended Term Loans) relating to any Extended Term Loan exceeds the Applicable Rate (which, for
such purposes only, shall be deemed to include all upfront or similar fees or original issue
discount payable to all Lenders providing the Tranche B Term Loans or Tranche B Euro Term Loans, as
applicable, and any EURO LIBO, LIBO or ABR floor applicable to the Tranche B Term Loans or Tranche
B Euro Term Loans, as applicable) relating to the Tranche B Term Loans or Tranche B Euro Term Loans
immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Extension by more than 0.25%, the Applicable Rate
relating to the Tranche B Term Loans or Tranche B Euro Term Loans, as applicable, shall be adjusted
to be equal to the interest rate margins (which, for such purposes only, shall be deemed to include
all upfront or similar fees or original issue discount payable to all Lenders providing such
Extended Term Loans and any EURO LIBO, LIBO or ABR floor applicable to such Extended Term Loans)
relating to such Extended Term Loans minus 0.25% and the Applicable Rate relating to any
Incremental Term Loans (if any) and any Extended Term Loans which were extended pursuant to one or
more prior Extensions (if any) shall be adjusted so that the difference between the Applicable Rate
relating to the Tranche B Term Loans or Tranche B Euro Term Loans, as applicable (after giving
effect to the foregoing adjustment), and the Applicable Rate relating to such Incremental Term
Loans and prior Extended Term Loans remains the same as immediately prior to the Extension and (B)
if the interest rate margins (which, for such purposes only, shall be deemed to include all upfront
or similar fees or original issue discount payable to all Lenders providing Extended Revolving
Commitments and any LIBO or ABR floor applicable to such Extended Revolving Commitments) or
commitment fee relating to any Extended Revolving Commitments exceeds the Applicable Rate (which,
for such purposes only, shall be deemed to include all upfront or similar fees or original issue
discount payable to all Lenders providing the Revolving Commitments and any LIBO or ABR floor
applicable to the Revolving Commitments) or Commitment Fee Rate relating to the Revolving
Commitments immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Extension by more than 0.25%, the
Applicable Rate and Commitment Fee Rate, as applicable, relating to the Revolving Commitments shall
be adjusted to be equal to the interest rate margins (which, for such purposes only, shall be
deemed to include all upfront or similar fees or original issue discount payable to all Lenders
providing such Extended Revolving Commitments and any LIBO or ABR floor applicable to such Extended
Revolving Commitments) relating to such Extended Revolving Commitments minus 0.25% and the
Applicable Rate relating to any Incremental Revolving Commitments (if any) and any Extended
Revolving Commitments which were extended pursuant to one or more prior Extensions (if any) shall
be adjusted so that the difference between the Applicable Rate relating
to the Revolving Commitments (after giving effect to the foregoing adjustment) and the
Applicable Rate relating such Incremental Revolving Commitments and prior Extended Revolving
Commitments remains the same as immediately prior to the Extension.

83

 

     (b) With respect to all Extensions consummated by the Borrower pursuant to this Section, (i)
such Extensions shall not constitute voluntary or mandatory payments or prepayments for purposes of
Section 2.11 and (ii) no Extension Offer is required to be in any minimum amount or any minimum
increment, provided that (x) the Borrower may at its election specify as a condition (a
“Minimum Extension Condition”) to consummating any such Extension that a minimum amount (to
be determined and specified in the relevant Extension Offer in the Borrower’s sole discretion and
may be waived by the Borrower) of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments (as applicable) of any or all
applicable tranches be tendered and (y) no tranche of Extended Term Loans shall be in an amount of
less than $100,000,000 (the “Minimum Tranche Amount”), unless such Minimum Tranche Amount
is waived by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to
the transactions contemplated by this Section (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of
any interest, fees or premium in respect of any Extended Term Loans and/or Extended Revolving
Commitments on the such terms as may be set forth in the relevant Extension Offer) and hereby waive
the requirements of any provision of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 2.11
and 2.18) or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit any such Extension or any other
transaction contemplated by this Section.

     (c) No consent of any Lender or the Administrative Agent shall be required to effectuate any
Extension, other than (A) the consent of each Lender agreeing to such Extension with respect to one
or more of its Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments (or a portion thereof) and (B) with respect
to any Extension of the Revolving Commitments, the consent of the Issuing Bank, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. All Extended Term Loans, Extended Revolving Commitments
and all obligations in respect thereof shall be Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents that are secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with all other applicable
Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Lenders hereby irrevocably
authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents with the Borrower as may be necessary in order to establish new tranches or sub-tranches
in respect of Revolving Commitments or Term Loans so extended and such technical amendments as may
be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower
in connection with the establishment of such new tranches or sub-tranches, in each case on terms
consistent with this Section. Without limiting the foregoing, in connection with any Extensions
the respective Loan Parties shall (at their expense) amend (and the Administrative Agent is hereby
directed to amend) any Mortgage that has a maturity date prior to the then latest maturity date so
that such maturity date is extended to the then latest maturity date (or such later date as may be
advised by local counsel to the Administrative Agent).

     (d) In connection with any Extension, the Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent at
least 5 Business Days’ (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent) prior
written notice thereof, and shall agree to such procedures (including, without limitation,
regarding timing, rounding and other adjustments and to ensure reasonable administrative management
of the credit facilities hereunder after such Extension), if any, as may
be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in each case acting reasonably
to accomplish the purposes of this Section.

84

 

ARTICLE III

Representations and Warranties

     The Borrower represents and warrants to the Lenders that:

     SECTION 3.01   Organization; Powers. Each Loan Party is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of
the jurisdiction of its organization, has all requisite power and authority to carry on its
business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted, to execute, deliver and perform its
obligations under each Loan Document to which it is a party and to effect the Transactions and,

expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, is qualified to do business in, and is in good
standing in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is required.

     SECTION 3.02   Authorization; Enforceability. The Transactions to be entered into by each Loan Party have been duly authorized by all
necessary corporate or other action and, if required, action by the holders of such Loan Party’s
Equity Interests. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by each of Holdings and the
Borrower and constitutes, and each other Loan Document to which any Loan Party is to be a party,
when executed and delivered by such Loan Party, will constitute, a legal, valid and binding
obligation of Holdings, the Borrower or such Loan Party (as the case may be), enforceable in
accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium
or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity,
regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

     SECTION 3.03   Governmental Approvals; No Conflicts. The Transactions (a) do not require any material consent or approval of, registration or

rise to a right of, or result in, termination, cancelation or acceleration of any obligation
thereunder, and (e) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any asset of
Holdings, the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (except Liens created under the Loan

individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect.

expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

     SECTION 3.06   Litigation and Environmental Matters. (a) There are no actions, suits or proceedings or, to the knowledge of the Borrower,
investigations, by or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority pending against or, to the
knowledge of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, threatened against or affecting Holdings, the Borrower
or any Subsidiary (i) that could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to
result in a Material Adverse Effect (other than the Disclosed Matters) or (ii) that (x) on the
Effective Date, involve any of the
Loan Documents or the Transactions or (y) on the date of any credit event after the Effective
Date, could affect the legality, validity or enforceability of any of the Loan Documents.

86

 

     (b) Except for the Disclosed Matters and except with respect to any other matters that,
individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse

clause (b) of this Section, where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

     SECTION 3.08   Investment Company Status. None of Holdings, the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary is required to register as an

do so could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, and (b) has paid or
caused to be paid all Taxes required to have been paid by it, except to the extent that the failure

other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally. In the case of Collateral described therein

such Foreign Pledge Agreements are taken, such Foreign Pledge Agreement shall constitute a fully
perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in
such Collateral and the proceeds thereof, as security for the Obligations, in each case prior and

and thereupon the principal of the Loans so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued
interest thereon and all fees and other obligations of the Borrower accrued hereunder, shall become
due and payable immediately, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all
of which are hereby waived by the Borrower; and in case of any event with respect to the Borrower
described in paragraph (h) or (i) of this Article, the Commitments shall automatically terminate
and the principal of the Loans then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon and all

statements with respect to the Test Period for which the applicable covenant set forth in such
Sections 6.12 and 6.13 is being measured are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a)
or (b), Holdings shall have the right to make a cash equity investment in the Borrower in the form
of Qualified Equity Interests (the “Cure Right”), and upon the receipt by the Borrower of
net cash proceeds from such equity investment (the amount of such net cash proceeds, the

122

 

“Cure Amount”), the applicable covenant set forth in Sections 6.12 and 6.13 shall be
recalculated, giving effect to a pro forma increase to Consolidated EBITDA for the relevant Test
Period in an amount equal to such Cure Amount; provided that such pro forma adjustment to
Consolidated EBITDA shall be given solely for the purpose of determining the existence of an Event
of Default under the applicable covenant set forth in Sections 6.12 and 6.13 with respect to any
Test Period that includes the fiscal quarter for which such Cure Right was exercised and not for
any other purpose under any Loan Document;

     (B) if, after the exercise of the Cure Right and the recalculations pursuant to clause (1)(A)
above, the Borrower shall then be in compliance with the requirements of the covenants set forth in
Sections 6.12 and 6.13 for any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters, the Borrower shall be
deemed to have satisfied the requirements of such covenant as of the relevant date of determination
with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the
applicable Default or Event of Default under Article VII that had occurred shall be deemed cured;
provided that (i) the Cure Right may be exercised no more than twice during any period of
four consecutive fiscal quarters, (ii) the Cure Right may be exercised on no more than four
occasions, (iii) with respect to any exercise of the Cure Right, the Cure Amount shall be no
greater than the amount required to cause the Loan Parties to be in compliance with the financial
covenants under Sections 6.12 and 6.13 and (iv) the net cash proceeds from the Cure Right may not
reduce the amount of Consolidated Total Debt for purposes of calculating compliance with the
covenant in Section 6.13; and

     (C) upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of a notice from the Borrower that it intends to
exercise the Cure Right (a “Notice of Intent to Cure”), until the tenth Business Day
following date of required delivery of the related Compliance Certificate to which such Notice of
Intent to Cure relates, neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall exercise the right to
accelerate the Loans or terminate or suspend the Commitments and neither the Administrative Agent
nor any other Lender shall exercise any right to foreclose on or take possession of the Collateral
solely on the basis of an allegation of an Event of Default having occurred and being continuing
under Article VII due to failure by the Borrower to comply with the requirements of Sections 6.12
and 6.13 for the applicable Test Period.

ARTICLE VIII

The Administrative Agent

     Each of the Lenders and each Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent
as its agent and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to
exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of the Loan
Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. In addition,
to the extent required under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States, each of the
Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereby grants to the Administrative Agent any required powers of
attorney to execute and enforce any Security Document governed by the laws of such jurisdiction on
such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s behalf. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit
of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, and the Borrower shall not have
rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.

123

 

     The bank serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers
in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the
Administrative Agent, and such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and
generally engage in any kind of business with Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other
Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder.

     The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set
forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the
Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of
whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any
duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary
rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is
required to exercise in writing as directed by the Required Lenders (or such other number or
percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary or believed by the Administrative Agent in good
faith to be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 2.05(j) or Section 9.02) and
for which it is indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders with regard to any and all liability
and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action,
and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not
have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information
relating to Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary that is communicated to or obtained by the
bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative
Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the
request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be
necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 2.05(j) or Section 9.02) or in the absence
of its own gross negligence or wilful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be
fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this
Agreement, all Lenders), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto
shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans. The Administrative Agent
shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is
given to the Administrative Agent by Holdings, the Borrower or a Lender, and the Administrative
Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement,
warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of
any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii)
the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set
forth in any Loan Document or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability,
effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or
(v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document,
other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative
Agent.

     The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for
relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other
writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other
distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent or otherwise
authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made
to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall
not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal
counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected
by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the
advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

124

 

     The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers
by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative
Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers
by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall
apply to any such subagent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such
sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the
credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

     Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in
this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time upon notice to the Lenders, the
Issuing Banks and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the
right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor Administrative Agent reasonably
acceptable to the Borrower, which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed
(provided that the Borrower’s approval shall not be required if an Event of Default under
Section 8.01(h), (i) or (j) then exists. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the
Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 15 days after the retiring
Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may,
on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent reasonable
acceptable to the Borrower, which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed
(provided that the Borrower’s approval shall not be required if an Event of Default then
exists) that shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such
bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such
successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of
the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from
all its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. If no successor agent has accepted
appointment as Administrative Agent by the date that is 30 days following a retiring Administrative
Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless
thereupon become effective, and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the
Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor
agent as provided for above. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent
shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower
and such successor. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this
Article and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative
Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or
omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as
Administrative Agent.

     Each Lender and each Issuing Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance
upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such
documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision
to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank also
acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or
any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it
shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not
taking action under or based upon this any Loan Document or any related agreement or any document
furnished thereunder.

125

 

     Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, none of the Syndication Agent, Joint
Bookrunners or Co-Lead Arrangers listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or
responsibilities under any Loan Document, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the
Administrative Agent, a Lender or an Issuing Bank hereunder.

ARTICLE IX

applicable, has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under
such Article by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in its
discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic
communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such
procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. All notices and other

126

 

     SECTION 9.02   Waivers; Amendments. (a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in
exercising any right or power under any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall
any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of
steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are
not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision
of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be
effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver
or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or the issuance, amendment,
renewal or extension of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default,
regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have had notice
or knowledge of such Default at the time. No notice or demand on the Borrower or Holdings in any
case shall entitle the Borrower or Holdings to any other or further notice or demand in similar or
other circumstances.

     (b) Except as provided in Section 2.20 with respect to any Incremental Facility Amendment,
neither any Loan Document nor any provision thereof may be waived, amended or modified except, in
the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by
Holdings, the Borrower and the Required Lenders or, in the case of any other Loan Document,
pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent and the
Loan Party or Loan Parties that are parties thereto, in each case with the consent of the Required
Lenders, provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender
without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce or forgive the principal amount of any Loan
or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder,
without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, provided that any amendment to
the financial covenant definitions in this Agreement shall not constitute a reduction in the rate
of interest for purposes of this clause (ii), (iii) postpone or otherwise extend the maturity of
any Loan, or the date of any scheduled payment of the principal amount of any Term Loan under
Section 2.10 or the applicable Incremental Facility Amendment, or the required date of
reimbursement of any LC Disbursement, or any date for the payment of any interest or fees payable
hereunder, or reduce or forgive the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone or
otherwise extend the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of
each Lender affected thereby, (iv) change any of the provisions of this Section or the percentage
set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision of any Loan Document
specifying the number or percentage of Lenders (or Lenders of any Class) required to waive, amend
or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without
the written consent of each Lender (or each Lender of such Class, as the case may be) (it being
understood that, other than pursuant to any Incremental Facility Amendment (the consent
requirements for which are set forth in Section 2.20), with the consent of the Required Lenders,
additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination of
the Required Lenders on substantially the same basis as the Term Loans and Revolving Commitments on
the Effective Date), (v) release all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Loan Parties from their
Guarantee under the Collateral Agreement (except as expressly provided in the Collateral
Agreement), without the written

127

 

consent of each Lender, or (vi) release all or substantially all the Collateral from the Liens
of the Security Documents, without the written consent of each Lender, provided
further that (A) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or
duties of the Administrative Agent, an Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender or change Section 2.21
without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or the Swingline
Lender, as the case may be, and (B) any waiver, amendment or modification of this Agreement that by
its terms affects the rights or duties under this Agreement of Lenders holding Loans or Commitments
of a particular Class (but not the Lenders holding Loans or Commitments of any other Class) may be
effected by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by Holdings, the Borrower and the
requisite percentage in interest of the affected Class of Lenders that would be required to consent
thereto under this Section if such Class of Lenders were the only Class of Lenders hereunder at the
time.

     (c) In connection with any proposed amendment, modification, waiver or termination (a
“Proposed Change”) requiring the consent of all Lenders or all affected Lenders, if the
consent of the Required Lenders to such Proposed Change is obtained, but the consent to such
Proposed Change of other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (any such Lender whose
consent is not obtained as described in paragraph (b) of this Section being referred to as a
“Non-Consenting Lender”), then, the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon
notice to such Non-Consenting Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Non-Consenting
Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions
contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an
assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender
accepts such assignment), provided that (a) the Borrower shall have received the prior
written consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if a Revolving Commitment is being assigned, each
Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (b) such
Non-Consenting Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal
of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon,
accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder from the assignee (to the extent of such
outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other
amounts) and (c) the Borrower or such assignee shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the
processing and recordation fee specified in Section 9.04(b).

     SECTION 9.03   Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) The Borrower shall pay (i) except as otherwise agreed by the Borrower and the Lead
Arrangers, all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its
Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel for the
Administrative Agent and the Lead Arrangers taken as a whole and, if necessary, of one local and
one regulatory counsel in any applicable jurisdiction (and solely in case of any conflict of
interest, one additional counsel to the affected Lenders, taken as a whole), in connection with the
syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of the
Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions thereof, (ii) all
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance,
amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and
(iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or the
Lenders, including the fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel for the Administrative Agent,
the Issuing Bank and the Lenders, taken as a whole and, if necessary, of one local and one
regulatory counsel in
any applicable jurisdiction (and solely in case of any conflict of interest, one additional
counsel to the affected Lenders, taken as a whole), in connection with the enforcement of the Loan
Documents, including its rights under this Section and during any workout, restructuring or
negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit.

128

 

     (b) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender,
and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an
“Indemnitee”), against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims,
damages, liabilities and related expenses, including those relating to Environmental Laws and
including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel to the affected Indemnitees
taken as a whole (and solely in the case of any conflict of interest, one additional counsel to the
affected Indemnitees, taken as a whole), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee by any
third party or by Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary arising out of, in connection with, or
as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of any Loan Document or any other agreement or
instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties to the Loan Documents of their
respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions
contemplated thereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom
(including any refusal by an Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if
the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of
such Letter of Credit) or (iii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or
proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory,
whether brought by a third party or by Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary and regardless of
whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, provided that such indemnity shall not, as to
any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable
judgment to have resulted from (i) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such
Indemnitee or its Related Parties or (ii) a material breach by such Indemnitee of its obligations
under any Loan Document.

     (c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the
Administrative Agent or the applicable Issuing Bank under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, and
without limiting the Borrower’s obligation to do so, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the
Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share
(determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought)
of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim,
damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the
Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank in its capacity as such. For purposes hereof, a Lender’s
“pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the aggregate Revolving Exposures,
outstanding Term Loans and unused Commitments at the time, provided that, for purposes of
indemnifying the Issuing Bank hereunder, such “pro rata share” shall be based upon the aggregate
Revolving Exposures and unused Revolving Commitments. The obligations of the Lenders under this
paragraph (c) are subject to the last sentence of Section 2.02(a) (which shall apply mutatis
mutandis to the Lenders’ obligations under this paragraph (c)).

129

 

     (d) None of Holdings, the Borrower, the Subsidiaries or any Indemnitees shall be liable for
special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual
damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, any Loan Document or any
agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the
use of the proceeds thereof, provided that nothing contained in this paragraph (d) shall
limit the obligations of the Borrower under Section 9.03(b).

     (e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than ten days after written
demand therefor.

     SECTION 9.04   Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any
Affiliate of an Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) the Borrower may
not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder (other than pursuant to
the Merger) without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or
transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign
or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section.
Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person
(other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including
any Affiliate of an Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent
provided in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the
Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders) any legal
or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

     (b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign
to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement
(including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior
written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of (A) the Borrower,
provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment of a Term Loan
to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund (as defined below) or, if an Event of
Default under clauses (a) or (b) of Article VII or under clauses (h), (i) or (j) (in each case with
respect to the Borrower) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee, (B)
the Administrative Agent, provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be
required for an assignment of all or any portion of a Term Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of a
Lender or an Approved Fund and (C) each Issuing Bank, provided that no consent of an
Issuing Bank shall be required for an assignment of all or any portion of a Term Loan or Term
Commitment.

     (ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

          (A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved
Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans
of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such
assignment (determined as of the trade date specified in the Assignment and Acceptance with respect
to such assignment or, if no trade date is so specified, as of the date the Assignment and
Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be
less than $5,000,000 or, in the case of a Term Loan, $1,000,000 in the case of a Tranche B Term
Loan and €1,000,000 in the case of a Tranche B
Euro Term Loan, unless the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent (such
consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), provided that no such consent of the
Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default under clauses (a) or (b) of Article VII or under
clauses (h), (i) or (j) (in each case with respect to the Borrower) has occurred and is continuing,

130

 

          (B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the
assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, provided that this clause
(B) shall not be construed to prohibit assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning
Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or Loans,

          (C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an
Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500,
provided that assignments made pursuant to Section 2.19(b) or Section 9.02(c) shall not
require the signature of the assigning Lender to become effective, provided,
further, that only one such processing and recordation fee shall be payable in connection
with simultaneous assignments to two or more assignees that are Affiliates of one another, or to
two or more Approved Funds that are managed or advised by the same investment advisor,

          (D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an
Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom
all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about the
Borrower and its Affiliates and their related parties or their respective securities) will be made
available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance
procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws and any tax forms
required by Section 2.17(e),

          (E) in case of an assignment to Holdings or its Subsidiaries or a Sponsor Affiliated Lender,
(1) no Event of Default under clauses (a) or (b) of Article VII or under clauses (h), (i) or (j)
(in each case, with respect to the Borrower) of Article VII shall have occurred and be continuing,
(2) on the date of such assignment and after giving effect thereto, no more than $50,000,000 shall
be outstanding in Revolving Loans, (3) after giving effect to such assignment, to all other
assignments with all Sponsor Affiliated Lenders, the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans
then held by all Sponsor Affiliated Lenders (by assignment) shall not exceed 20% of the aggregate
unpaid principal amount of the Term Loans then outstanding, (4) the assignee shall execute a waiver
in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent that it shall have no right
whatsoever so long as such Person is a Sponsor Affiliated Lender (i) to vote with respect to any
amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other such action with respect to any of the terms of
this Agreement or any other Loan Document, provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing,
such assignee shall be permitted to vote if such amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other
such action (x) requires the vote of all Lenders or all affected Lenders and all Lenders or all
affected Lenders, as the case may be, have given their consent thereto, or (y) disproportionately
affects such Sponsor Affiliated Lender in its capacity as a Lender as compared to other Lenders,
(ii) subject to subclause (i) of clause (4) of this paragraph, to otherwise vote on any matter
related to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (iii) to attend (or receive any notice of)
any meeting, conference call or correspondence with the Administrative Agent or any Lender or
receive any information from the Administrative Agent or any Lender or (iv) to make or bring any
claim, in its capacity as

131

 

Lender, against the Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to the duties and
obligations of such Persons under the Loan Documents, but no amendment, modification, waiver,
consent or other action shall deprive any Sponsor Affiliated Lender of its share of any payments
which the Lenders are entitled to share on a pro rata basis hereunder, (5) each Sponsor Affiliated
Lender shall acknowledges and agree that the Loans owned by it shall be non-voting under sections
1126 and 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code in the event that any proceeding thereunder shall be
instituted by or against Borrower or any other Loan Party, or, alternatively, to the extent that
the foregoing non-voting designation is deemed unenforceable for any reason, each Sponsor
Affiliated Lender shall vote in such proceedings in the same proportion as the allocation of voting
with respect to such matter by those Lenders who are not Sponsor Affiliated Lenders, except to the
extent that any plan of reorganization proposes to treat the Obligations held by such Sponsor
Affiliated Lender in a manner that is less favorable in any material respect to such Sponsor
Affiliated Lender than the proposed treatment of similar Obligations held by Lenders that are not
Sponsor Affiliated Lenders, (6) no Revolving Loans or Revolving Commitments shall be assigned to
any Sponsor Affiliated Lender except that Revolving Loans and Revolving Commitments held by a
Lender that becomes a Defaulting Lender may be assigned to a Sponsor Affiliated Lender, and (7) any
Loans assigned to the Borrower or the Subsidiaries shall be cancelled promptly upon such
assignment, and

          (F) the Borrower shall, upon reasonable request by the Administrative Agent, provide such
documentation to the Administrative Agent in connection with any assignment by a Lender to an
assignee that bears a relationship to the Borrower under Section 108(e)(4) of the Code, so as to
allow the Administrative Agent to determine whether the assigned portion of the Loan will have
original issue discount for U.S. federal income tax purposes and, if so, the amount of such
original issue discount.

     For purposes of paragraph (b) of this Section, the term “Approved Fund” and “CLO” have the
following meanings:

     “Approved Fund” means (a) a CLO and (b) with respect to any Lender that is a fund that
invests in bank loans and similar extensions of credit, any other fund that invests in bank loans
and similar extensions of credit and is managed or advised by the same investment advisor as such
Lender or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor.

     “CLO” means an entity (whether a corporation, partnership, trust or otherwise) that is
engaged in making, purchasing, holding or otherwise investing in bank loans and similar extensions
of credit in the ordinary course and is administered or managed by a Lender or an Affiliate of such
Lender.

     (iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(v) of this
Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the
assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such
Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and
the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment
and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an
Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this
Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue
to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 and to any fees payable
hereunder that have accrued for such Lender’s account but have not yet been paid). Any assignment
or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with
this Section shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a
participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c)(i) of this Section.

132

 

     (iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall
maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a
register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and
principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender
pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the
Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Holdings, the Borrower, the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the
Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement,
notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the
Borrower, any Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon
reasonable prior notice.

     (v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning
Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire and any tax forms
required by Section 2.17(e) (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the
processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b)(ii) of this Section and any written
consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b)(i) of this Section, the Administrative Agent
shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the
Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been
recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

     (vi) The words “execution”, “signed”, “signature” and words of like import in any Assignment
and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in
electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a
manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be,
to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic
Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and
Records Act or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

     (c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any
Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a
“Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this
Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it),
provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged,
(B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of
such obligations, (C) Holdings, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the
other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and (D) the Borrower shall, upon reasonable
request of a Lender that sells a participation in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights

133

 

and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the
Loans owing to it) to the Borrower or to a Participant that bears a relationship to the Borrower
under Section 108(e)(4) of the Code, provide such documentation to such Lender so as to allow such
Lender to determine whether the participated portion of the Loan will have original issue discount
for U.S. federal income tax purposes and, if so, the amount of such original issue discount. Any
agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that
such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the Loan Documents and to approve any amendment,
modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents, provided that such agreement
or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree
to any amendment, modification or waiver described in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (vi) of the first
proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this
Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections
2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by
assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each
Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender,
provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.18(c) as though it were a
Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary
agent of the Borrower (solely for tax purposes), shall maintain a register on which it enters the
name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each
Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant
Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any
portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any
information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or
its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is
necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in
registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in
the Participant Register shall be conclusive, and such Lender, each Loan Party and the
Administrative Agent shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register
pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement,
notwithstanding notice to the contrary.

     (ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15 or
Section 2.17 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the
participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is
made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits
of Section 2.17 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and
such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.17(e) as though
it were a Lender.

     (d) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, at any
time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement
to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a
Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a
security interest, provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall
release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee
for such Lender as a party hereto.

134

 

     (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting
Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPV”), identified as such
in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower,
the option to provide to the Borrower all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would
otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement, provided that
(i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPV to make any Loan and (ii) if an SPV
elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the
Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a
Loan by an SPV hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent,
and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPV
shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability
for which shall remain with the Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party
hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior
to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial
paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPV, such party will not institute against, or join any
other person in instituting against, such SPV any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In
addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.04, any SPV may (i)
with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any
Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by the Borrower and
Administrative Agent) providing liquidity or credit support to or for the account of such SPV to
support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any
non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or
provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPV.

     SECTION 9.05   Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the
Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or
pursuant to any Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties
hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any
Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other
party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any
Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at
the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as
the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under
this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the
Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03
and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation
of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination
of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision
hereof.

     SECTION 9.06   Counterparts; Integration. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on
different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken
together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any
separate letter agreements with respect to fees
payable to the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent or the syndication of the Loans and
Commitments constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof
and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the
subject matter hereof.

135

 

     SECTION 9.07   Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity,
illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the
remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular
jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

     SECTION 9.08   Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, each Issuing
Bank and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to
time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or
special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other
obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender, such Issuing Bank or any such
Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any of and all the
obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender or
such Issuing Bank, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or such Issuing Bank shall have made
any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured or are owed to a
branch or office of such Lender or such Issuing Bank different from the branch or office holding
such deposit or obligated on such Indebtedness. The applicable Lender and the applicable Issuing
Bank shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of such setoff and application,
provided that any failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall not affect the
validity of any such setoff and application under this Section. The rights of each Lender, each
Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and
remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, such Issuing Bank and their
respective Affiliates may have.

     SECTION 9.09   Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the
State of New York; provided, however, that the interpretation of the definition of
Closing Date Material Adverse Effect (and whether or not a Closing Date Material Adverse Effect has
occurred) shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the
State of Delaware.

     (b) Each of Holdings and the Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for
itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New
York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan and of the United States District Court of the Southern
District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising
out of or relating to any Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and
each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect
of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the
extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be
conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other
manner provided by law. Nothing in any Loan Document shall affect
any right that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to
bring any action or proceeding relating to any Loan Document against Holdings, the Borrower or
their respective properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

136

 

     (c) Each of Holdings and the Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the
fullest extent not prohibited by law, any right it might have to claim or recover in any legal
action or proceeding referred to in this Section any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential
damages, and waives to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that
it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out
of or relating to any Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each
of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the
defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

     (d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner
provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in any Loan Document will affect the right of any
party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

     SECTION 9.10   WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY
RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF
OR RELATING TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON
CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT
OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD
NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT
AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS,
THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

     SECTION 9.11   Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of
reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be
taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

     SECTION 9.12   Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders agrees to maintain the
confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a)
to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal
counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made
will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such
Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (c) to the
extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process (in
which case notice of such subpoena or similar legal process shall, to the extent not prohibited by
such subpoena or legal process, be provided to the Borrower prior to the disclosure of such
Information), (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any
remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to any Loan Document or the
enforcement of rights

137

 

thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those
of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or
Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (ii) any actual or
prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any Swap Agreement relating to any Loan Party and its
obligations under the Loan Documents and (iii) to any pledgee referred to in Section 9.04(d), (g)
with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly
available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the
Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other
than Holdings or the Borrower (provided that the source is not actually known by such
disclosing party to be bound by an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those
contained in this Section 9.12). For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all
information received from Holdings or the Borrower relating to Holdings or the Borrower or its
business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any
Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by Holdings or the
Borrower. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this
Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has
exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such
Person would accord to its own confidential information.

     SECTION 9.13   Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate
applicable to any Loan or participation in any LC Disbursement, together with all fees, charges and
other amounts that are treated as interest on such Loan or LC Disbursement or participation therein
under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate
(the “Maximum Rate”) that may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by
the Lender holding such Loan or LC Disbursement or participation therein in accordance with
applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all
Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful,
the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan or LC Disbursement or
participation therein but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be
cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or LC
Disbursement or participation therein or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate
therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds
Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

     SECTION 9.14   USA Patriot Act. Each Lender hereby notifies Holdings and the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of
the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the
“Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Holdings
and the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of Holdings and the Borrower and
other information that will allow such Lender to identify Holdings and the Borrower in accordance
with the Act.

     SECTION 9.15   Conversion of Currencies. (a) If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a
sum owing hereunder in one currency into another currency, each party hereto agrees, to the fullest
extent that it may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in
accordance with normal banking procedures in the
relevant jurisdiction the first currency could be purchased with such other currency on the
Business Day immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given.

138

 

     (b) The obligations of the Borrower in respect of any sum due to any party hereto or any
holder of the obligations owing hereunder (the “Applicable Creditor”) shall,
notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the
currency in which such sum is stated to be due hereunder (the “Agreement Currency”), be
discharged, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, only to the extent that, on the
Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Creditor of any sum adjudged to be so due in the
Judgment Currency, the Applicable Creditor may in accordance with normal banking procedures in the
relevant jurisdiction purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of
the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Applicable Creditor
in the Agreement Currency, such Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any
such judgment, to indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Applicable
Creditor against such loss. The obligations of the Borrower contained in this Section 9.15 shall
survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all other amounts owing hereunder.

     SECTION 9.16   Effectiveness of the Merger; Assumption by the Borrower. Upon consummation of the Merger, Holdings automatically succeeded to all the rights and
obligations of the Initial Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the
Borrower immediately thereafter assumed all such rights and obligations of Holdings as the
“Borrower” under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

139

 

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have duly executed this Agreement as of the day and
year first above written.
