regulations, enforcement procedures and any interpretations promulgated thereunder, and (h)
references to Sections or clauses shall refer to those portions of this Agreement, and any
references to a clause shall, unless otherwise identified, refer to the appropriate clause within
the same Section in which such reference occurs.

          SECTION 2. Priority of Liens.

          2.1 Subordination; Etc. Notwithstanding the date, manner or order of grant,
attachment or perfection of any Liens securing the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations granted on
the Collateral or of any Liens securing the First-Lien Obligations granted on the Collateral and
notwithstanding any provision of the UCC, any other applicable law, this Agreement, the First-Lien
Documents or the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents to the contrary, or any other
circumstance whatsoever (including any non-perfection of any Lien purporting to secure the
First-Lien Obligations and/or Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations), the Second-Lien Collateral
Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second-Lien Creditors, and each other Second-Lien Creditor (by
its acceptance of the benefits of the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents) hereby agrees that:
(a) any Lien on the Collateral securing any First-Lien Obligations now or hereafter held by or on
behalf of the First-Lien Collateral Agent or any First-Lien Creditor or any agent or trustee
therefor, regardless of how acquired, whether by grant, possession, statute, operation of law,
subrogation or otherwise, shall be senior in all respects and prior to any Lien on the Collateral
securing any of the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations; (b) any Lien on the Collateral now or
hereafter held by or on behalf of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, any Second-Lien Creditor or any
agent or trustee therefor regardless of how acquired, whether by grant, possession, statute,
operation of law, subrogation or otherwise, shall be junior and subordinate in all respects to all
Liens on the Collateral securing any First-Lien Obligations, and (c) it will not take or cause to
be taken any action the purpose or effect of which is, or could be, to make any Lien securing the
Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations pari passu with, or to give the Second-Lien
Collateral Agent or Second-Lien Creditors any preference or priority relative to, any Lien securing
the First-Lien Obligations with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof. All Liens on the
Collateral securing any First-Lien

 

Page 12

Obligations shall be and remain senior in all respects and prior
to all Liens on the Collateral securing any Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations for all purposes,
whether or not such Liens securing any First-Lien Obligations are subordinated to any Lien securing
any other obligation of the Borrower, any other Grantor or any other Person. The parties hereto
acknowledge and agree that it is their intent that (i) the First-Lien Obligations (and the security
therefor) constitute a separate and distinct class (and separate and distinct claims) from the
Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations
(and the security therefor) and (ii) the grant of Liens securing payment and performance of
the First-Lien Obligations and the grant of Liens securing payment and performance of the
Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations create two separate and distinct Liens with each such Lien
securing only the corresponding Obligations.

          2.2 Prohibition on Contesting Liens. Each of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, for
itself and on behalf of each Second-Lien Creditor, and the First-Lien Collateral Agent, for itself
and on behalf of each First-Lien Creditor, agrees that it shall not (and hereby waives any right
to) contest or support any other Person in contesting, in any proceeding (including any Insolvency
or Liquidation Proceeding), (i) the validity or enforceability of any Security Document or any
Obligation thereunder, (ii) the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens,
mortgages, assignments and security interests granted pursuant to the Security Documents with
respect to the First-Lien Obligations or the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations or (iii) the
relative rights and duties of the holders of the First-Lien Obligations and the Second-Lien
Subordinated Obligations granted and/or established in this Agreement or any other Security
Document with respect to such Liens, mortgages, assignments, and security interests; provided that
nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of the First-Lien
Collateral Agent or any First-Lien Creditor to enforce this Agreement, including the priority of
the Liens securing the First-Lien Obligations as provided in Section 2.1 hereof.

          2.3 No New Liens. So long as the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has not
occurred, the parties hereto agree that the Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any other
Grantor to, grant or permit any additional Liens, or take any action to perfect any additional
Liens, on any asset or property to secure any Second-Lien Subordinated Obligation unless it has
also granted or contemporaneously grants a Lien on such asset or property to secure the First-Lien
Obligations and has taken all actions to perfect such Liens. To the extent that the foregoing
provisions are not complied with for any reason, without limiting any other rights and remedies
available to the First-Lien Collateral Agent and/or the other First-Lien Creditors, the Second-Lien
Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Second-Lien Creditors, and each other
Second-Lien Creditor (by its acceptance of the benefits of the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes
Documents), agrees that any amounts received by or distributed to any of them pursuant to or as a
result of Liens granted in contravention of this Section 2.3 shall be subject to Section 4.2
hereof.

          2.4 Similar Liens and Agreements. The parties hereto agree that it is their intention
that the Second-Lien Collateral shall not be more expansive than the First-Lien Collateral, and
shall not include any Excluded Collateral. In furtherance of the foregoing and of Section 8.9
hereof, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second-Lien Creditors agree, subject to the
other provisions of this Agreement:

     (i) upon request by the First-Lien Collateral Agent, to cooperate in good faith (and
to direct their counsel to cooperate in good faith) from time to time in order to

 

Page 13

determine
the specific items included in the Second-Lien Collateral and the steps taken to perfect the
Liens thereon and the identity of the respective parties obligated under the Second-Lien
Subordinated Notes Documents; and

     (ii) that the guarantors for the First-Lien Obligations and the Second-Lien
Subordinated Obligations shall be identical.

          SECTION 3. Enforcement.

          3.1 Exercise of Remedies. (a) So long as the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has
not occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or
against the Borrower or any other Grantor: (i) the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the other
Second-Lien Creditors will not exercise or seek to exercise any rights or remedies (including
setoff) with respect to any Collateral (including, without limitation, the exercise of any right
under any lockbox agreement, control account agreement, landlord waiver or bailee’s letter or
similar agreement or arrangement to which the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any Second-Lien
Creditor is a party) or institute or commence, or join with any Person in commencing, any action or
proceeding with respect to such rights or remedies (including any action of foreclosure,
enforcement, collection or execution and any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding), and will not
contest, protest or object to any foreclosure proceeding or action brought by the First-Lien
Collateral Agent or any other First-Lien Creditor or any other exercise by the First-Lien
Collateral Agent or any other First-Lien Creditor, of any rights and remedies relating to the
Collateral under the First-Lien Credit Documents or otherwise, or object to the forbearance by the
First-Lien Collateral Agent or the other First-Lien Creditors from bringing or pursuing any
foreclosure proceeding or action or any other exercise of any rights or remedies relating to the
Collateral; and (ii) the First-Lien Collateral Agent shall have the exclusive right, and the
Required First-Lien Creditors shall have the exclusive right to instruct the First-Lien Collateral
Agent, to enforce rights, exercise remedies (including setoff and the right to credit bid their
debt) and make determinations regarding the release, disposition, or restrictions with respect to
the Collateral without any consultation with or the consent of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or
any other Second-Lien Creditor, all as though the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations did not
exist; provided, that, (A) in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding commenced by or
against the Borrower or any other Grantor, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent may file a claim or
statement of interest with respect to the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations, (B) the Second-Lien
Collateral Agent may take any action (not adverse to the prior Liens on the Collateral securing the
First-Lien Obligations, or the rights of the First-Lien Collateral Agent or the other First-Lien
Creditors to exercise remedies in respect thereof) in order to preserve or protect its Lien on the
Shared Collateral in a manner not otherwise inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, and (C)
the Second-Lien Creditors shall be entitled to file any necessary responsive or defensive pleading
in opposition to any motion, claim, adversary proceeding or other pleading made by any Person
objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of the claims of the Second-Lien Creditors,
including any claim secured by the Shared Collateral, if any, in each case in a manner not
otherwise inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement. In exercising rights and remedies with
respect to the Collateral, the First-Lien Collateral Agent and the other First-Lien Creditors may
enforce the provisions of the First-Lien Credit Documents and exercise remedies thereunder, all in
such
order and in such

 

Page 14

manner as they may determine in the exercise of their sole discretion. Such
exercise and enforcement shall include the rights of an agent appointed by them to sell or
otherwise dispose of Collateral upon foreclosure, to incur expenses in connection with such sale or
disposition, and to exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured creditor under the Uniform
Commercial Code of
any applicable jurisdiction and of a secured creditor under Bankruptcy Laws of any applicable
jurisdiction.

          (b) The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second-Lien Creditors,
agrees that it will not take or receive any Collateral or any proceeds of Collateral in connection
with the exercise of any right or remedy (including setoff) with respect to any Collateral, unless
and until the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, unless and until the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred, the sole
right of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second-Lien Creditors with respect to the
Collateral is to hold a Lien on the Shared Collateral pursuant to the Second-Lien Subordinated
Security Documents for the period and to the extent granted therein and to receive a share of the
proceeds thereof, if any, after the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred in accordance
with the terms of the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents and applicable law (it being
understood that at no time shall the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second-Lien
Creditors have any rights with respect to the Excluded Collateral).

          (c) The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Second-Lien Creditors,
and each other Second-Lien Creditor (by its acceptance of the benefits of the Second-Lien
Subordinated Notes Documents), (i) agrees that the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the other
Second-Lien Creditors will not take any action that would hinder, delay, limit or prohibit any
exercise of remedies under the First-Lien Credit Documents, including any collection, sale, lease,
exchange, transfer or other disposition of the Collateral, whether by foreclosure or otherwise, or
that would limit, invalidate, avoid or set aside any Lien or Security Document or subordinate the
priority of the First-Lien Obligations to the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations or grant the
Liens securing the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations equal ranking to the Liens securing the
First-Lien Obligations and (ii) hereby waives any and all rights it or the Second-Lien Creditors
may have as a junior lien creditor or otherwise (whether arising under the UCC or under any other
law) to object to the manner in which the First-Lien Collateral Agent or the other First-Lien
Creditors seek to enforce or collect the First-Lien Obligations or the Liens granted in any of the
First-Lien Collateral, regardless of whether any action or failure to act by or on behalf of the
First-Lien Collateral Agent or First-Lien Creditors is adverse to the interest of the Second-Lien
Creditors.

          (d) The Second-Lien Collateral Agent hereby acknowledges and agrees that no covenant,
agreement or restriction contained in the Second-Lien Subordinated Security Documents or any other
Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Document shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights and
remedies of the First-Lien Collateral Agent or the other First-Lien Creditors with respect to the
Collateral as set forth in this Agreement and the First-Lien Documents.

          (e) The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Second-Lien Creditors,
and each Second-Lien Creditor (by its acceptance of the benefits of the Second-

 

Page 15

Lien Subordinated
Notes Documents) agrees that the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second-Lien Creditors
will not, without the prior written consent of the Required First-Lien Creditors (or the First-Lien
Collateral Agent at their direction or with their consent), issue any payment blockage or similar
notice with respect to any obligations that are subordinated in right
of payment to any First-Lien Obligations before the Discharge of First-Lien Credit Agreement
Obligations has occurred.

          3.2 Actions Upon Breach. (a) If any Second-Lien Creditor, contrary to this
Agreement, commences or participates in any action or proceeding against any Grantor or the
Collateral, any First-Lien Creditor may intervene and interpose as a defense or dilatory plea the
making of this Agreement, in its name or in the name of such Grantor.

          (b) Should any Second-Lien Creditor, contrary to this Agreement, in any way take, attempt to
or threaten to take any action with respect to the Collateral (including, without limitation, any
attempt to realize upon or enforce any remedy with respect to this Agreement), or take any other
action in violation of this Agreement or fail to take any action required by this Agreement, the
First-Lien Collateral Agent or any other First-Lien Creditor (in its own name or in the name of the
relevant Grantor), with the prior written consent of the First-Lien Collateral Agent, (i) may
obtain relief against such Second-Lien Creditor by injunction, specific performance and/or other
appropriate equitable relief, it being understood and agreed by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent on
behalf of each Second-Lien Creditor that (x) the First-Lien Creditors’ damages from its actions may
at that time be difficult to ascertain and may be irreparable, and (y) each Second-Lien Creditor
waives any defense that the First-Lien Creditors cannot demonstrate damage and/or be made whole by
the awarding of damages, and (ii) shall be entitled to damages, as well as reimbursement for all
reasonable and documented costs and expenses incurred in connection with any action to enforce the
provisions of this Agreement.

          SECTION 4. Payments.

          4.1 Application of Proceeds. So long as the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has
not occurred, any proceeds of any Collateral pursuant to the enforcement of any Security Document
or the exercise of any remedial provision thereunder, together with all other proceeds received by
any Creditor (including all funds received in respect of post-petition interest or fees and
expenses) as a result of any such enforcement or the exercise of any such remedial provision or as
a result of any distribution of or in respect of any Collateral (whether or not expressly
characterized as such) upon or in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding with respect to any
Grantor, or the application of any Collateral (or proceeds thereof) to the payment thereof or any
distribution of Collateral (or proceeds thereof) upon the liquidation or dissolution of any
Grantor, shall be applied by the First-Lien Collateral Agent to the First-Lien Obligations in such
order as specified in the relevant First-Lien Security Document (it being understood that any
payment of the fees and expenses of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent shall not constitute a
distribution of or in respect of Collateral for purposes of this Agreement, provided,
however, that this understanding does not constitute and may not be construed as an
agreement or consent of the First-Lien Collateral Agent or any of the First-Lien Creditors to the
payment of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent’s fees or expenses in any respects). Upon the
Discharge of First-Lien

 

 

Page 16

Obligations, the First-Lien Collateral Agent shall deliver to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent
any proceeds of Shared Collateral held by it in the same form as received, with any necessary
endorsements or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct, to be applied by the
Second-Lien Collateral Agent to the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations in such order as specified
in the Second-Lien Subordinated Security Documents.

          4.2 Payments Over. Until such time as the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has
occurred, any Collateral or proceeds thereof (together with assets or proceeds subject to Liens
referred to in the final sentence of Section 2.3 hereof) (or any distribution in respect of the
Collateral, whether or not expressly characterized as such) received by the Second-Lien Collateral
Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditors in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy
(including setoff) relating to the Collateral or that is otherwise inconsistent with this Agreement
shall be segregated and held in trust and forthwith paid over to the First-Lien Collateral Agent
for the benefit of the First-Lien Creditors in the same form as received, with any necessary
endorsements or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. The First-Lien
Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to make any such endorsements as agent for the Second-Lien
Collateral Agent or any such other Second-Lien Creditors. This authorization is coupled with an
interest and is irrevocable until such time as this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its
terms.

          SECTION 5. Other Agreements.

          5.1 Releases.

          (a) If, in connection with:

               (i) the exercise of the First-Lien Collateral Agent’s remedies in respect of the Collateral
provided for in Section 3.1 hereof, including any sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other
disposition of any such Collateral (any of the foregoing, a “Remedial Action”);

               (ii) any sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition (any of the foregoing, a
“Disposition”) of any Collateral permitted under the terms of the First-Lien Credit
Documents (whether or not an “event of default” thereunder or under any Second-Lien Subordinated
Notes Document has occurred and is continuing); or

               (iii) any agreement (not contravening the First-Lien Credit Documents) between the First-Lien
Collateral Agent and the Borrower or any other Grantor (x) to release the First-Lien Collateral
Agent’s Lien on any portion of the Collateral or (y) to release any Grantor from its obligations
under its guaranty of the First-Lien Obligations;

there occurs the release by the First-Lien Collateral Agent, acting on its own or at the direction
of the Required First-Lien Creditors, of any of its Liens on any part of the Collateral, or of any
Grantor from its obligations under its guaranty of the First-Lien Obligations, then the Liens, if
any, of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and for the benefit of the other Second-Lien
Creditors, on such Collateral, and the obligations of such Grantor under its guaranty of the
Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations, shall be automatically, unconditionally and simultaneously
released, and, upon receipt of notice in writing, the Second-Lien Collateral

 

Page 17

Agent, for itself or on behalf of any such Second-Lien Creditors, promptly shall execute and
deliver to the First-Lien Collateral Agent or such Grantor such termination statements, releases
and other documents as the First-Lien Collateral Agent or such Grantor may request, and which the
Grantor has provided to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, to effectively confirm such release;
provided however that if a payment default then exists under the Second-Lien
Subordinated Notes Indenture and the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations occurs concurrently with
any such release, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of the Second-Lien Creditors) shall
be entitled to receive the residual cash or cash equivalents (if any) remaining after giving effect
to such release and the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations to the extent otherwise required
pursuant to the terms of the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents.

          (b) Until the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations occurs, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent,
for itself and on behalf of the Second-Lien Creditors, hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints
the First-Lien Collateral Agent and any officer or agent of the First-Lien Collateral Agent, with
full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and
authority in the place and stead of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or such other Second-Lien
Creditor or in the First-Lien Collateral Agent’s own name, from time to time in the First-Lien
Collateral Agent’s discretion, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Section 5.1, to
take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may
be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Section 5.1, including any
endorsements or other instruments of transfer or release.

          (c) If, prior to the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations, a subordination of the First-Lien
Collateral Agent’s Lien on any Shared Collateral is permitted (or in good faith believed by the
First-Lien Collateral Agent to be permitted) under the First-Lien Credit Agreement to another Lien
permitted under the First-Lien Credit Agreement (a “Priority Lien”), then the First-Lien
Collateral Agent is authorized to execute and deliver a subordination agreement with respect
thereto in form and substance satisfactory to it, and the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, for itself
and on behalf of the Second-Lien Creditors, shall promptly execute and deliver to the First-Lien
Collateral Agent or the relevant Grantor an identical subordination agreement subordinating the
Liens of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Second-Lien Creditors to such
Priority Lien.

          5.2 Insurance. Unless and until the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred,
the First-Lien Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Required First-Lien Creditors)
shall have the sole and exclusive right, subject to the rights of the Grantors under the First-Lien
Credit Documents, to adjust settlement for any insurance policy covering the Collateral in the
event of any loss thereunder and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar
proceeding (or any deed in lieu of condemnation) affecting the Collateral. Unless and until the
Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred, and subject to the rights of the Grantors under
the First-Lien Security Documents, all proceeds of any such policy and any such award (or any
payments with respect to a deed in lieu of condemnation) in respect to the Collateral shall be paid
to the First-Lien Collateral Agent for the benefit of the First-Lien Creditors pursuant to the
terms of the First-Lien Credit Documents (including, without limitation, for purposes of cash
collateralization of commitments, letters of credit and Secured Hedge Agreements) and, after the
Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred, to the

 

Page 18

Second-Lien Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Second-Lien Creditors (in respect of any
Shared Collateral) to the extent required under the Second-Lien Subordinated Security Documents and
then, to the extent no Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations are outstanding, to the owner of the
subject property, to such other Person as may be entitled thereto or as a court of competent
jurisdiction may otherwise direct. If the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien
Creditor shall, at any time, receive from the insurer any proceeds of any such insurance policy or
any such award or payment in contravention of this Agreement, it shall pay such proceeds over to
the First-Lien Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms of Section 4.2 of this Agreement.
Unless and until the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred, the First-Lien Collateral
Agent will have the sole and exclusive right to be named an additional insured and loss payee under
any such insurance policy.

          5.3 Amendments to Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents. (a) Without the prior
written consent of the First-Lien Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Required
First-Lien Creditors), no Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Document may be amended, restated,
supplemented, modified and/or Refinanced or entered into to the extent such amendment, supplement,
restatement, modification and/or Refinancing, or the terms of any new Second-Lien Subordinated
Notes Document, would contravene the provisions of this Agreement, the First-Lien Credit Agreement
or any other First-Lien Credit Document (it being understood that the Second-Lien Collateral Agent
and the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Trustee may rely upon an opinion of counsel to the Borrower
to make any determination as to whether the requirements of this Section 5.3 have been complied
with). The Borrower, each other Grantor and the Second-Lien Collateral Agent each agree that each
Second-Lien Subordinated Security Document shall include the following language (or language to
similar effect approved by the First-Lien Collateral Agent):

“Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the lien and security interest
granted to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement and the
exercise of any right or remedy by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent hereunder are
subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of March 26, 2009
(as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in
accordance with the terms thereof, the “Intercreditor Agreement”), among CMP
Susquehanna Radio Holdings Corp., CMP Susquehanna Corp., the other Grantors from
time to time party thereto, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, in its capacity as
the initial First-Lien Collateral Agent, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
in its capacity as the initial Second-Lien Collateral Agent thereunder. In the
event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and this
Agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control.”

In addition, each of the Borrower, each other Grantor and the Second-Lien Collateral Agent each
agree that each Second-Lien Security Document covering any Shared Collateral constituting real
property shall contain such other language as the First-Lien Collateral Agent may reasonably
request to reflect the subordination of such Second-Lien Security Document to the First-Lien
Security Document covering such Shared Collateral.

 

Page 19

          (b) In the event the First-Lien Collateral Agent or the other First-Lien Creditors and the
relevant Grantor(s) enter into any amendment, restatement, waiver or consent in respect of any of
the First-Lien Security Documents for the purpose of adding to, or deleting from, or waiving or
consenting to any departures from any provisions of, any First-Lien Security Document or changing
in any manner the rights of the First-Lien Collateral Agent, the other First-Lien Creditors, the
Borrower or any other Grantor thereunder, then such amendment, restatement, waiver or consent shall
apply automatically to any comparable provision of the Comparable Second-Lien Subordinated Security
Document without the consent of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or the other Second-Lien Creditors
and without any action by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, the Borrower or any other Grantor,
provided, that (A) no such amendment, restatement, waiver or consent shall have the effect
of (i) removing assets subject to the Lien of the Second-Lien Subordinated Security Documents,
except to the extent that a release of such Lien is permitted or required by Section 5.1 of this
Agreement, or (ii) imposing additional duties on the Second-Lien Collateral Agent without its
consent, and (B) written notice of such amendment, restatement, waiver or consent shall have been
given to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent (although the failure to give any such notice shall in no
way affect the effectiveness of any such amendment, waiver or consent).

          (c) The Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations may be Refinanced, in whole or in part, without
the consent of the First-Lien Collateral Agent or any of the First-Lien Creditors, all without
affecting the Lien priorities provided for herein or the other provisions hereof; provided,
that (A) any such Refinancing shall be permitted pursuant to the terms of the First-Lien Credit
Documents, (B) the aggregate principal amount of the Refinancing Indebtedness shall not exceed the
aggregate principal amount of the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations then being Refinanced plus
accrued interest, fees and other amounts outstanding in respect thereof, and the cash yield or cash
interest on the Refinanced Indebtedness shall be at then current market rates, (C) the Refinanced
Indebtedness shall be secured and guaranteed only to the same extent securing the Second-Lien
Subordinated Obligations on the date of such Refinancing and (D) the terms of any such Refinanced
Indebtedness shall not (i) result in an earlier maturity date or decreased weighted average life
thereof, (ii) change any event of default or condition to an event of default with respect thereto
(other than to eliminate any such event of default or increase any grace period related thereto) or
add any event of default, (iii) add any mandatory prepayments thereto, (iv) change the lien
subordination provisions thereof (or of any guaranty thereof) or (v) make any other amendment
thereof or change thereto, if the effect of such other amendment or change, together with all other
amendments or changes made, is to increase materially the obligations of the obligors thereunder or
to confer any additional rights on the Second-Lien Creditors or other holders of Indebtedness (or a
representative on their behalf) under the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents or any document
governing such Refinanced Indebtedness that would be adverse to the Borrower and each Subsidiary
Guarantor under the First-Lien Credit Documents or any First-Lien Creditor.

          5.4 Rights As Unsecured Creditors. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement,
the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second-Lien Creditors may exercise rights and
remedies as unsecured creditors against Holdings, the Borrower or any other Grantor that has
guaranteed the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Second-Lien
Subordinated Notes Documents, the First-Lien Documents and applicable law.

 

Page 20

Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement (and subject in any event to the subordination
provisions in the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Indenture and the other Second-Lien Subordinated
Notes Documents), nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by the Second-Lien
Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor of the required payments of interest and
principal on the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations, so long as such receipt is not the direct or
indirect result of the exercise by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien
Creditor of rights or remedies as a secured creditor (including setoff) or enforcement in
contravention of this Agreement of any Lien held by any of them. In the event the Second-Lien
Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor becomes a judgment lien creditor in respect of
Collateral as a result of any enforcement of its rights, such judgment lien shall be subordinated
to the Liens securing First-Lien Obligations on the same basis as the other Liens securing the
Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations are so subordinated to such Liens securing First-Lien
Obligations under this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement impairs or otherwise adversely affects
any rights or remedies the First-Lien Collateral Agent or the other First-Lien Creditors may have
with respect to the First-Lien Collateral. Each of the parties hereto hereby acknowledges and
agrees that the rights of the Second-Lien Creditors to (i) receive payments of principal, interest
and other amounts owing in respect of the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations and (ii) exercise
rights and remedies as creditors against the Borrower or any other Grantor that has guaranteed the
Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations are further subject to the subordination provisions set forth
in the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Indenture and the other Second-Lien Subordinated Notes
Documents.

          5.5 Bailee for Perfection. (a) The First-Lien Collateral Agent agrees to acquire,
and acknowledges it holds, the Pledged Collateral or other Collateral in its possession or control
(or in the possession or control of its agents or bailees) on behalf of itself and the Second-Lien
Collateral Agent (it being understood that with respect to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, it
holds solely the Pledged Collateral or other Collateral constituting Shared Collateral) and, in
each case, any assignee, solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted under
the First-Lien Credit Documents and the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents, subject to the
terms and conditions of this Section 5.5.

          (b) Until the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred, the First-Lien Collateral
Agent shall be entitled to deal with the Pledged Collateral in accordance with the terms of the
First-Lien Credit Documents as if the Liens of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent under the
Second-Lien Subordinated Security Documents did not exist. The rights of the Second-Lien
Collateral Agent shall at all times be subject to the terms of this Agreement and to the First-Lien
Collateral Agent’s rights under the First-Lien Credit Documents.

          (c) The First-Lien Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to the First-Lien
Creditors and the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any Second-Lien Creditor to assure that the
Pledged Collateral is genuine or owned by any of the Grantors or to preserve rights or benefits of
any Person except as expressly set forth in this Section 5.5. The duties or responsibilities of
the First-Lien Collateral Agent under this Section 5.5 shall be limited solely to holding the
Pledged Collateral as bailee in accordance with this Section 5.5.

          (d) The First-Lien Collateral Agent, acting pursuant to this Section 5.5, shall not have by
reason of the First-Lien Security Documents, the Second-Lien Subordinated Security

 

Page 21

Documents, this Agreement or any other document, a fiduciary relationship in respect of the
First-Lien Creditors, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor.

          (e) Upon the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations, the First-Lien Collateral Agent shall
deliver the remaining Pledged Collateral (if any) (or proceeds thereof) together with any necessary
endorsements, first, to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent (solely to the extent such Pledged
Collateral constitutes Shared Collateral), if any Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations remain
outstanding, and second, to the Borrower or the relevant Grantor if no First-Lien
Obligations or Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations remain outstanding (in each case, so as to
allow such Person to obtain control of such Pledged Collateral). The First-Lien Collateral Agent
further agrees to take all other action reasonably requested by such Person in connection with such
Person’s obtaining a first-priority interest in the Collateral or as a court of competent
jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

          5.6 When Discharge of First-Lien Obligations Deemed to Not Have Occurred. If at any
time after the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred, the Borrower immediately
thereafter enters into any Refinancing of any First-Lien Credit Document evidencing a First-Lien
Obligation, then such Discharge of First-Lien Obligations shall automatically be deemed not to have
occurred for all purposes of this Agreement, and the obligations under such Refinanced First-Lien
Credit Document shall automatically be treated as First-Lien Obligations for all purposes of this
Agreement, including for purposes of the Lien priorities and rights in respect of Collateral set
forth herein, and the first-lien collateral agent under such First-Lien Credit Documents shall be
the First-Lien Collateral Agent for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon receipt of a notice in
writing stating that the Borrower has entered into a new First-Lien Credit Document (which notice
shall include the identity of the new agent, such agent, the “New Agent”), the Second-Lien
Collateral Agent shall promptly enter into such documents and agreements (including amendments or
supplements to this Agreement) as the Borrower or such New Agent may reasonably request in order to
provide to the New Agent the rights contemplated hereby, in each case consistent in all material
respects with the terms of this Agreement.

          5.7 Option to Purchase First-Lien Debt

. (a)  Without prejudice to the enforcement of remedies by the First-Lien Creditors, any Person or
Persons (in each case who must meet all eligibility standards contained in all relevant First-Lien
Credit Documents) at any time or from time to time designated by the holders of more than 50% in
aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations as being
entitled to exercise all default purchase options as to the Second-Lien Obligations then
outstanding (an “Eligible Purchaser”) shall have the right to purchase by way of assignment
(and shall thereby also assume all commitments and duties of the First-Lien Creditors), at any time
during the exercise period described in clause (c) below of this Section 5.7, all, but not less
than all, of the First-Lien Obligations (other than the First-Lien Obligations of a Defaulting
Creditor), including all principal of and accrued and unpaid interest and fees on and all
prepayment or acceleration penalties and premiums in respect of all First-Lien Obligations
outstanding at the time of purchase; provided that at the time of (and as a condition to)
any purchase pursuant to this Section 5.7, all commitments pursuant to any then outstanding
First-Lien Credit Agreement shall have terminated, and all Secured Hedge Agreements constituting
First-Lien Documents and

 

Page 22

Cash Management Services entered into with any First-Lien Creditor shall also have been terminated
in accordance with their terms. Any purchase pursuant to this Section 5.7(a) shall be made as
follows:

     (1) for (x) a purchase price equal to the sum of (A) in the case of all loans, advances
or other similar extensions of credit that constitute First-Lien Obligations (including
unreimbursed amounts drawn in respect of Letters of Credit, but excluding the undrawn amount
of then outstanding Letters of Credit), the greater of (I) 100% and (II) the then current
market-based price, of the principal amount thereof and all accrued and unpaid interest
thereon through the date of purchase (without regard, however, to any acceleration
prepayment penalties or premiums other than customary breakage costs), (B) in the case of
any Secured Hedge Agreement, the aggregate amount then owing to each Hedge Bank thereunder
pursuant to the terms of the respective Secured Hedge Agreement, including without
limitation all amounts owing to such Hedge Bank as a result of the termination (or early
termination) thereof, (C) in the case of any Cash Management Services, the aggregate amount
then owing to each Cash Management Bank providing such Cash Management Services pursuant to
the terms of the respective documents governing such Cash Management Services, including
without limitation all amounts owing to such Cash Management Bank as a result of the
termination (or early termination) thereof, plus (D) all accrued and unpaid fees, expenses,
indemnities and other amounts through the date of purchase; and (y) an obligation on the
part of the respective Eligible Purchasers (which shall be expressly provided in the
assignment documentation described below) to (i) reimburse each issuing lender (or any
First-Lien Creditor required to pay same) for all amounts thereafter drawn with respect to
any Letters of Credit constituting First-Lien Obligations which remain outstanding after the
date of any purchase pursuant to this Section 5.7, together with all facing fees and other
amounts which may at any future time be owing to the respective issuing lender with respect
to such Letters of Credit, and (ii) pay over to the First-Lien Creditors any amounts
recovered by such Eligible Purchasers on account of any acceleration prepayment premiums or
penalties with respect to the First-Lien Obligations;

     (2) with the purchase price described in preceding clause (a)(1)(x) payable in cash on
the date of purchase against transfer to the respective Eligible Purchaser or Eligible
Purchasers (without recourse and without any representation or warranty whatsoever, whether
as to the enforceability of any First-Lien Obligation or the validity, enforceability,
perfection, priority or sufficiency of any Lien securing, or guarantee or other supporting
obligation for, any First-Lien Obligation or as to any other matter whatsoever, except the
representation and warranty that the transferor owns free and clear of all Liens and
encumbrances (other than participation interests not prohibited by the First-Lien Credit
Agreement, in which case the purchase price described in preceding clause (a)(1)(x) shall be
appropriately adjusted so that the Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers do not pay
amounts represented by any participation interest which remains in effect), and has the
right to convey, whatever claims and interests it may have in respect of the First-Lien
Obligations); provided that the purchase price in respect of any outstanding Letter
of Credit that remains undrawn on the date of purchase shall be payable in cash as and when
such Letter of Credit is drawn upon (i) first, from the cash

 

Page 23

collateral account described in clause (a)(3) below, until the amounts contained
therein have been exhausted, and (ii) thereafter, directly by the respective Eligible
Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers;

     (3) with such purchase accompanied by a deposit of cash collateral under the sole
dominion and control of the First-Lien Collateral Agent or its designee in an amount equal
to 110% of the sum of the aggregate undrawn amount of all then outstanding Letters of Credit
pursuant to the First-Lien Credit Documents and the aggregate facing and similar fees which
will accrue thereon through the stated maturity of the Letters of Credit (assuming no
drawings thereon before stated maturity), as security for the respective Eligible
Purchaser’s or Eligible Purchasers’ obligation to pay amounts as provided in preceding
clause (a)(1)(y), it being understood and agreed that (x) at the time any facing or similar
fees are owing to an issuer with respect to any Letter of Credit, the First-Lien Collateral
Agent may apply amounts deposited with it as described above to pay same and (y) upon any
drawing under any Letter of Credit, the First-Lien Collateral Agent shall apply amounts
deposited with it as described above to repay the respective unpaid drawing. After giving
effect to any payment made as described above in this clause (3), those amounts (if any)
then on deposit with the First-Lien Collateral Agent as described in this clause (3) which
exceed 110% of the sum of the aggregate undrawn amount of all then outstanding Letters of
Credit and the aggregate facing and similar fees (to the respective issuers) which will
accrue thereon through the stated maturity of the then outstanding Letters of Credit
(assuming no drawings thereon before stated maturity), shall be returned to the respective
Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers (as their interests appear). Furthermore, at such
time as all Letters of Credit have been cancelled, expired or been fully drawn, as the case
may be, and after all applications described above have been made, any excess cash
collateral deposited as described above in this clause (3) (and not previously applied or
released as provided above) shall be returned to the respective Eligible Purchaser or
Eligible Purchasers, as their interests appear;

     (4) with the purchase price described in preceding clause (a)(1)(x) accompanied by a
waiver by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the other Second-Lien
Creditors) of all claims arising out of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated
hereby as a result of exercising the purchase option contemplated by this Section 5.7;

     (5) with all amounts payable to the various First-Lien Creditors in respect of the
assignments described above to be distributed to them by the First-Lien Collateral Agent in
accordance with their respective holdings of the various First-Lien Obligations; and

     (6) with such purchase to be made pursuant to assignment documentation in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to, and prepared by counsel for, the First-Lien Collateral
Agent (with the cost of such counsel to be paid by the Grantors or, if the Grantors do not
make such payment, by the respective Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers, who shall
have the right to obtain reimbursement of same from the Grantors); it being understood and
agreed that the First-Lien Collateral Agent and each other First-Lien Creditor shall retain
all rights to indemnification as provided in the relevant First-

 

Page 24

Lien Credit Documents for all periods prior to any assignment by them pursuant to the
provisions of this Section 5.7. The relevant assignment documentation shall also provide
that, if for any reason (other than the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the
First-Lien Collateral Agent (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final
and non-appealable judgment)), the amount of cash collateral held by the First-Lien
Collateral Agent or its designee pursuant to preceding clause (a)(3) is at any time less
than the full amounts owing with respect to any Letter of Credit described above (including
facing and similar fees) then the respective Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers shall
promptly reimburse the First-Lien Collateral Agent (who shall pay the respective issuing
bank) the amount of deficiency.

          (b) The right to exercise the purchase option described in Section 5.7(a) above shall be
exercisable and legally enforceable upon at least seven Business Days’ prior written notice of
exercise (which notice, once given, shall be irrevocable and fully binding on the respective
Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers) given to the First-Lien Collateral Agent by an Eligible
Purchaser. Neither the First-Lien Collateral Agent nor any other First-Lien Creditor shall have
any disclosure obligation to any Eligible Purchaser, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other
Second-Lien Creditor in connection with any exercise of such purchase option.

          (c) The right to purchase the First-Lien Obligations as described in this Section 5.7 may be
exercised (by giving the irrevocable written notice described in preceding clause (b)) during the
period that (1) begins on the date occurring three Business Days after the first to occur of (x)
the date of the acceleration of the final maturity of the Loans under the First-Lien Credit
Agreement, (y) the occurrence of the final maturity of the Loans under the First-Lien Credit
Agreement or (z) the occurrence of an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding with respect to the
Borrower which constitutes an event of default under the First-Lien Credit Agreement (in each case,
so long as the acceleration, failure to pay amounts due at final maturity or such Insolvency or
Liquidation Proceeding constituting an event of default has not been rescinded or cured within such
three Business Day period, and so long as any unpaid amounts constituting First-Lien Obligations
remain owing); provided that if there is any failure to meet the condition described in the proviso
of preceding clause (a) hereof, the aforementioned date shall be extended until the first date upon
which such condition is satisfied, and (2) ends on the 30thth day after the start of the
period described in clause (1) above.

          (d) The obligations of the First-Lien Creditors to sell their respective First-Lien
Obligations under this Section 5.7 are several and not joint and several. To the extent any
First-Lien Creditor (a “Defaulting Creditor”) breaches its obligation to sell its
First-Lien Obligations under this Section 5.7, nothing in this Section 5.7 shall be deemed to
require the First-Lien Collateral Agent or any other First-Lien Creditor to purchase such
Defaulting Creditor’s First-Lien Obligations for resale to the holders of Second-Lien Subordinated
Obligations and in all cases, the First-Lien Collateral Agent and each First-Lien Creditor
complying with the terms of this Section 5.7 shall not be deemed to be in default of this Agreement
or otherwise be deemed liable for any action or inaction of any Defaulting Creditor;
provided that nothing in this clause (d) shall require any Eligible Purchaser to purchase
less than all of the First-Lien Obligations.

 

Page 25

          (e) Each Grantor irrevocably consents to any assignment effected to one or more Eligible
Purchasers pursuant to this Section 5.7 (so long as they meet all eligibility standards contained
in all relevant First-Lien Credit Documents, other than obtaining the consent of any Grantor to an
assignment to the extent required by such First-Lien Credit Documents) for purposes of all
First-Lien Credit Documents and hereby agrees that no further consent from such Grantor shall be
required.

          SECTION 6. Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings.

          6.1 Finance and Sale Issues. (a) Until the Discharge of the First-Lien Obligations
has occurred, if the Borrower or any other Grantor shall be subject to any Insolvency or
Liquidation Proceeding and the First-Lien Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Required
First-Lien Creditors) shall desire to permit the use of Cash Collateral on which the First-Lien
Collateral Agent or any other creditor of the Borrower or any other Grantor has a Lien or agrees,
along with the Required First-Lien Creditors, to permit the Borrower or any other Grantor to obtain
post-petition financing (including on a priming basis), whether from the First-Lien Creditors or
any other third party under Section 362, 363 or 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any other Bankruptcy
Law (each, a “Post-Petition Financing”), then the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf
of itself and the Second-Lien Creditors, and each Second-Lien Creditor (by its acceptance of the
benefits of the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents), agrees that it will not oppose or raise
any objection to or contest (or join with or support any third party opposing, objecting to or
contesting), such use of Cash Collateral or Post-Petition Financing and will not request adequate
protection or any other relief in connection therewith that is inconsistent with Section 6.3
(except as expressly agreed in writing by the First-Lien Collateral Agent) and, to the extent the
Liens securing the First-Lien Obligations are subordinated to or pari passu with
such Post-Petition Financing incurred in compliance with this Section 6.1, the Liens of the
Second-Lien Creditors on the Collateral shall be deemed to be subordinated, without any further
action on the part of any person or entity, to the Liens securing such Post-Petition Financing (and
all Obligations relating thereto), and the Liens securing the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations
shall have the same priority with respect to the Collateral relative to the Liens securing the
First-Lien Obligations as if such Post-Petition Financing had not occurred; provided that
the First-Lien Collateral Agent and the First-Lien Creditors acknowledge and agree that the
Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the Second-Lien Creditors shall retain the right to raise any
objection to the Post-Petition Financing that could be raised by any unsecured creditor of the
Borrower, so long as such objections are not based on the Second-Lien Creditors’ status as secured
creditors.

          (b) Until the Discharge of the First-Lien Obligations has occurred, the Second-Lien Collateral
Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second-Lien Creditors, and each Second-Lien Creditor (by its
acceptance of the benefits of the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents), agrees that it will
raise no objection to, oppose or contest (or join with or support any third party opposing,
objecting to or contesting), a sale or other disposition of any Collateral free and clear of its
Liens or other claims under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code if the First-Lien Creditors have
consented to such sale or disposition of such assets; provided, that notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Second-Lien
Creditors, may raise objections to any such disposition of Collateral that could be raised by any
creditor of the Borrower whose claims were not secured by any Liens on

 

Page 26

the Collateral, so long as such objections are not based on the Second-Lien Creditors’ status
as secured creditors.

          6.2 Relief from the Automatic Stay. Until the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has
occurred, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second-Lien Creditors, and
each Second-Lien Creditor (by its acceptance of the benefits of the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes
Documents), agrees that none of them shall seek relief, pursuant to Section 362(d) of the
Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, from the automatic stay of Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or
from any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Collateral,
without the prior written consent of the First-Lien Collateral Agent, unless a motion for adequate
protection permitted under Section 6.3 has been denied by the Bankruptcy Court.

          6.3 Adequate Protection. (a) The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself
and the Second-Lien Creditors, and each Second-Lien Creditor (by its acceptance of the benefits of
the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents), agrees that none of them shall (i) oppose, object to
or contest (or join with or support any third party opposing, objecting to or contesting) (a) any
request by the First-Lien Collateral Agent or the other First-Lien Creditors for adequate
protection in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding (or any granting of such request) or (b) any
objection by the First-Lien Collateral Agent or the other First-Lien Creditors to any motion,
relief, action or proceeding based on the First-Lien Collateral Agent or the other First-Lien
Creditors claiming a lack of adequate protection or (ii) seek or accept any form of adequate
protection under any of Sections 362, 363 and/or 364 of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the
Collateral, except as expressly provided in this Section 6.3.

          (b) In any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding:

               (i) if the First-Lien Creditors (or any subset thereof) are granted adequate protection in the
form of additional collateral in connection with any use of Cash Collateral or Post-Petition
Financing, then the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself or any of the other
Second-Lien Creditors, may seek or request adequate protection in the form of a Lien on such
additional collateral, which Lien will be subordinated to the Liens securing the First-Lien
Obligations, such use of Cash Collateral and/or any Post-Petition Financing (and all Obligations
relating thereto) on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Second-Lien Subordinated
Obligations are so subordinated to the First-Lien Obligations under this Agreement, the First-Lien
Security Documents and the Second-Lien Subordinated Security Documents; and

               (ii) the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second-Lien Creditors shall only be
permitted to seek adequate protection with respect to their rights in the Collateral in any
Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in the form of (A) additional collateral, including
replacement Liens on post-petition collateral, provided, that, as adequate protection for
the First-Lien Obligations, the First-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of the First-Lien Creditors,
is also granted a security interest in and Lien upon such additional collateral, which is senior
and prior to the security interest and Lien granted to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and/or the
Second-Lien Creditors; (B) replacement Liens on the Collateral, provided, that, as adequate
protection for the First-Lien Obligations, the First-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of the First-

 

Page 27

Lien Creditors, is also granted a security interest in and replacement Lien upon such
additional collateral, which is senior and prior to the security interest and Lien granted to the
Second-Lien Collateral Agent and/or the Second-Lien Creditors; and (C) an administrative expense
claim, provided, that, as adequate protection for the First-Lien Obligations, the
First-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of the First-Lien Creditors, is also granted an
administrative expense claim that is senior and prior to the administrative expense claim granted
to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and/or the Second-Lien Creditors; and provided,
further, that unless the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred prior to, or
occurs on, the effective date of any plan of reorganization, any adequate protection payments that
may otherwise be payable to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any Second-Lien Creditors in
respect of any of the foregoing shall be paid to the First-Lien Collateral Agent for the benefit of
the First-Lien Creditors for application to the First-Lien Obligations.

          6.4 No Waiver; Voting Rights; Reorganization Securities. (a) Nothing contained
herein shall prohibit or in any way limit the First-Lien Collateral Agent or any First-Lien
Creditor from objecting on any basis in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise to
any action taken by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor, including
the seeking by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor of adequate
protection on terms inconsistent with Section 6.3 or the assertion by the Second-Lien Collateral
Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor of any of its rights and remedies under the Second-Lien
Subordinated Notes Documents or otherwise.

          (b) In any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, neither the Second-Lien Collateral Agent nor
any other Second-Lien Creditor shall (i) oppose or object to the proposed treatment of First-Lien
Obligations or the relative treatment of the First-Lien Obligations to the Second-Lien Subordinated
Obligations in any plan of reorganization or disclosure statement, or join with or support any
third party in doing so, to the extent the terms of such plan or disclosure statement comply with
the following clause (ii) and are otherwise consistent with the rights of the First-Lien Creditors
under this Agreement or (ii) support any plan of reorganization or disclosure statement of any
Grantor unless (x) such plan provides for the payment in full in cash of all First-Lien Obligations
(including all post-petition interest, fees and expenses as provided in Section 6.6 hereof) on the
effective date of such plan of reorganization, or (y) such plan provides on account of the
First-Lien Obligations for the retention by the First-Lien Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the
First-Lien Creditors, of the Liens on the Collateral securing the First-Lien Obligations, and on
all proceeds thereof, and such plan also provides that any Liens retained by, or granted to, the
Second-Lien Collateral Agent are only on assets or property securing the First-Lien Obligations and
shall have the same relative priority with respect to the Collateral or other assets or property,
respectively, as provided in this Agreement with respect to the Collateral, and to the extent such
plan provides for deferred cash payments, or for the distribution of any other property of any kind
or nature, on account of the First-Lien Obligations or the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations,
such plan provides that any such deferred cash payments or other distributions in respect of the
Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations shall be delivered to the First-Lien Collateral Agent and
distributed in accordance with the priorities provided in Sections 4.1(a) and 5.4 hereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Second-Lien Creditors shall remain entitled to vote their claims
in any such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.

 

Page 28

          (c) If, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, debt obligations of the reorganized
debtor secured by Liens upon any property of the reorganized debtor are distributed pursuant to a
plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan, the Second-Lien Creditors may
receive Junior Permitted Securities (as defined in the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Indenture) to
the extent permitted in the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Indenture.

          6.5 Preference Issues. If any First-Lien Creditor is required in any Insolvency or
Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise to turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of the Borrower or
any other Grantor any amount (a “Recovery”), then the First-Lien Obligations shall be
reinstated to the extent of such Recovery and the First-Lien Creditors shall be entitled to a
reinstatement of First-Lien Obligations with respect to all such recovered amounts. If this
Agreement shall have been terminated prior to such Recovery, this Agreement shall be reinstated in
full force and effect, and such prior termination shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or
otherwise affect the obligations of the parties hereto from such date of reinstatement. Any
amounts received by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any Second-Lien Creditor on account of the
Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations after the termination of this Agreement shall, in the event of
a reinstatement of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 6.5, be held in trust for and paid over
to the First-Lien Collateral Agent for the benefit of the First-Lien Creditors, for application to
the reinstated First-Lien Obligations. This Section 6.5 shall survive termination of this
Agreement.

          6.6 Post-Petition Interest. (a) Neither the Second-Lien Collateral Agent nor any
other Second-Lien Creditor shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the First-Lien Collateral
Agent or any other First-Lien Creditor for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of
First-Lien Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses to the extent of the
value of the Liens securing the First-Lien Obligations (it being understood and agreed that such
value shall be determined without regard to the existences of any Liens securing the Second-Lien
Subordinated Obligations). Regardless of whether any such claim for post-petition interest, fees
or expenses is allowed or allowable, and without limiting the generality of the other provisions of
this Agreement, this Agreement is expressly intended to include and does include the “rule of
explicitness” in that this Agreement expressly entitles the First-Lien Creditors, and is intended
to provide the First-Lien Creditors with the right, to receive payment of all post-petition
interest, fees or expenses through distributions made pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement
even though such interest, fees and expenses are not allowed or allowable against the bankruptcy
estate of the Borrower or any other Grantor under Section 502(b)(2) or Section 506(b) of the
Bankruptcy Code or under any other provision of the Bankruptcy Code or any other Bankruptcy
Law. 

          (b) Without limiting the foregoing, it is the intention of the parties hereto that (and to the
maximum extent permitted by law the parties hereto agree that) the First-Lien Obligations (and the
security therefor) constitute a separate and distinct class (and separate and distinct claims) from
the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations (and the security therefor).

          6.7 Waiver. The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other
Second-Lien Creditors, waives any claim it may hereafter have against any First-Lien Creditor
arising out of the election by any First-Lien Creditor of the application to the claims of any
First-Lien Creditor of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, and/or out of any Cash

 

Page 29

Collateral or Post-Petition Financing arrangement or out of any grant of a security interest
in connection with the Collateral in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.

          6.8 Limitations. So long as the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has not occurred,
without the express written consent of the First-Lien Collateral Agent, none of the Second-Lien
Creditors shall (or shall join with or support any third party making, opposing, objecting or
contesting, as the case may be), in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding involving any Grantor,
(i) make an election for application to its claims of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code,
(ii) oppose, object to or contest the determination of the extent of any Liens held by any of the
First-Lien Creditors or the value of any claims of First-Lien Creditors under Section 506(a) of the
Bankruptcy Code or (iii) oppose, object to or contest the payment to the First-Lien Creditors of
interest, fees or expenses under Section 506(b) of the Bankruptcy Code.

          SECTION 7. Reliance; Waivers; Etc.

          7.1 Reliance. Other than any reliance on the terms of this Agreement, the First-Lien
Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the First-Lien Creditors under the First-Lien Documents,
acknowledges that it and the other First-Lien Creditors have, independently and without reliance on
the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditors, and based on documents and
information deemed by them appropriate, made their own credit analysis and decision to enter into
such First-Lien Documents and be bound by the terms of this Agreement and they will continue to
make their own credit decision in taking or not taking any action under any First-Lien Document or
this Agreement. The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second-Lien
Creditors, acknowledges that it and the other Second-Lien Creditors have, independently and without
reliance on the First-Lien Collateral Agent or any other First-Lien Creditor, and based on
documents and information deemed by them appropriate, made their own analysis and decision to enter
into each of the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents and be bound by the terms of this
Agreement and they will continue to make their own decision in taking or not taking any action
under the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents or this Agreement.

          7.2 No Warranties or Liability. The First-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself
and the First-Lien Creditors under the First-Lien Documents, acknowledges and agrees that each of
the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second-Lien Creditors have made no express or
implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the execution, validity, legality,
completeness, collectibility or enforceability of any of the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes
Documents, the ownership of any Shared Collateral or the perfection or priority of any Liens
thereon. The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second-Lien Creditors,
acknowledges and agrees that each of the First-Lien Collateral Agent and the First-Lien Creditors
have made no express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the
execution, validity, legality, completeness, collectibility or enforceability of any of the
First-Lien Documents, the ownership of any Collateral or the perfection or priority of any Liens
thereon. The First-Lien Creditors will be entitled to manage and supervise their respective loans
and extensions of credit under their respective First-Lien Documents in accordance with law and as
they may otherwise, in their sole discretion, deem appropriate. The First-Lien Collateral Agent
and the First-Lien Creditors shall have no duty to the Second-Lien Collateral

Agent or any of the Second-Lien Creditors, to act or refrain from acting in a manner which
allows, or results in, the occurrence or continuance of an event of default or default under any
agreements with the Borrower or any other Grantor (including under the First-Lien Documents),
regardless of any knowledge thereof which they may have or be charged with.

          7.3 No Waiver of Lien Priorities. (a) No right of the First-Lien Creditors, the
First-Lien Collateral Agent or any of them to enforce any provision of this Agreement or any
First-Lien Document shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to
act on the part of the Borrower or any other Grantor or by any act or failure to act by any
First-Lien Creditor or the First-Lien Collateral Agent, or by any noncompliance by any Person with
the terms, provisions and covenants of this Agreement, any of the First-Lien Documents or any of
the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents, regardless of any knowledge thereof which the
First-Lien Collateral Agent or the First-Lien Creditors, or any of them, may have or be otherwise
charged with.

          (b) Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph (but subject to the
rights of the Borrower and the other Grantors under the First-Lien Documents), the First-Lien
Creditors, the First-Lien Collateral Agent and any of them may, at any time and from time to time
in accordance with the First-Lien Documents and/or applicable law, without the consent of, or
notice to, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor, without incurring
any liabilities to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor and without

Second-Lien Creditors is affected, impaired or extinguished thereby) do any one or more of the
following:

          (i) make loans and advances to any Grantor or issue, guaranty or obtain letters of
credit for account of any Grantor or otherwise extend credit to any Grantor, in any amount
and on any terms, whether pursuant to a commitment or as a discretionary advance and whether
or not any default or event of default or failure of condition is then continuing;

          (ii) change the manner, place or terms of payment or change or extend the time of
payment of, or amend, renew, exchange, increase or alter, the terms of any of the First-Lien
Obligations or any Lien on any First-Lien Collateral or guaranty thereof or any liability of
the Borrower or any other Grantor, or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in
respect thereof (including any increase in or extension of the First-Lien Obligations,
without any restriction as to the amount, tenor or terms of any such increase or extension)
or otherwise amend, renew, exchange, extend, modify or supplement in any manner any Liens
held by the First-Lien Collateral Agent or any of the First-Lien Creditors, the First-Lien
Obligations or any of the First-Lien Documents;

          (iii) sell, exchange, release, surrender, realize upon, enforce or otherwise deal with

 Page 31

          (iv) settle or compromise any First-Lien Obligation or any other liability of the
Borrower or any other Grantor or any security therefor or any liability incurred directly or
indirectly in respect thereof and apply any sums by whomsoever paid and however realized to
any liability (including the First-Lien Obligations) in any manner or order;

          (v) exercise or delay in or refrain from exercising any right or remedy against the
Borrower or any other Grantor or any other Person or with respect to any security, elect any
remedy and otherwise deal freely with the Borrower, any other Grantor or any First-Lien
Collateral and any security and any guarantor or any liability of the Borrower or any other
Grantor to the First-Lien Creditors or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in
respect thereof; and

          (vi) release or discharge any First-Lien Obligation or any guaranty thereof or any
agreement or obligation of any Grantor or any other person or entity with respect thereto.

          (c) The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second-Lien Creditors, and
each other Second-Lien Creditor (by its acceptance of the benefits of the Second-Lien Subordinated
Notes Documents), agrees not to assert and hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
any right to demand, request, plead or otherwise assert or otherwise claim the benefit of, any
marshalling, appraisal, valuation or other similar right that may otherwise be available under
applicable law with respect to the Collateral or any other similar rights a junior secured creditor
may have under applicable law.

          7.4 Waiver of Liability; Indemnity. (a) The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf
of itself and the Second-Lien Creditors, also agrees that the First-Lien Creditors and the
First-Lien Collateral Agent shall have no liability to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any
other Second-Lien Creditors, and the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the
Second-Lien Creditors, hereby waives any claim against any First-Lien Creditor or the First-Lien
Collateral Agent, arising out of any and all actions which the First-Lien Creditors or the
First-Lien Collateral Agent may take or permit or omit to take with respect to: (i) the First-Lien
Documents (including, without limitation, any failure to perfect or obtain perfected security
interests in the First-Lien Collateral), (ii) the collection of the First-Lien Obligations or (iii)
the foreclosure upon, or sale, liquidation or other disposition of, any First-Lien Collateral. The
Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second-Lien Creditors, agrees that the
First-Lien Creditors and the First-Lien Collateral Agent have no duty, express or implied,
fiduciary or otherwise, to them in respect of the maintenance or preservation of the First-Lien
Collateral, the First-Lien Obligations or otherwise. Neither the First-Lien Collateral Agent nor
any other First-Lien Creditor nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents
will be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any
delay in doing so, or will be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral
upon the request of the Borrower or any other Grantor or upon the request of the Second-Lien
Collateral Agent, any other holder of Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations or any other Person or
to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. Without
limiting the foregoing, each Second-Lien Creditor by accepting the benefits of the Second-Lien
Subordinated Notes Documents agrees that neither the First-Lien Collateral Agent nor any other

 

 

 Page 32

First-Lien Creditor (in directing the Collateral Agent to take any action with respect to the
Collateral) shall have any duty or obligation to realize first upon any type of Collateral or to
sell, dispose of or otherwise liquidate all or any portion of the Collateral in any manner,
including as a result of the application of the principles of marshaling or otherwise, that would
maximize the return to any class of Creditors holding Obligations of any type (whether First-Lien
Obligations or Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations), notwithstanding that the order and timing of
any such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation may affect the amount of proceeds actually
received by such class of Creditors from such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation.

          (b) With respect to its share of the Obligations, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas
(“DBTCA”) shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder as, and shall be
subject to the same obligations and liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein for, any
other Creditor, all as if DBTCA were not the First-Lien Collateral Agent. The term “Creditors” or
any similar term shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include DBTCA in its
individual capacity as a Creditor. DBTCA and its affiliates may lend money to, and generally
engage in any kind of business with, the Grantors or any of their Affiliates as if DBTCA were not
acting as the First-Lien Collateral Agent and without any duty to account therefor to any other
Creditor.

          7.5 Obligations Unconditional. All rights, interests, agreements and obligations of
the First-Lien Collateral Agent and the other First-Lien Creditors and the Second-Lien Collateral
Agent and the other Second-Lien Creditors, respectively, hereunder (including the Lien priorities
established hereby) shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of:

          (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any First-Lien Document or any
Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Document;

          (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other terms of,
all or any of the First-Lien Obligations or Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations, or any
amendment or waiver or other modification, including any increase in the amount thereof,
whether by course of conduct or otherwise, of the terms of any First-Lien Document or any
Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Document;

          (c) any exchange of any security interest in any Collateral or any other collateral, or
any amendment, waiver or other modification, whether in writing or by course of conduct or
otherwise, of all or any of the First-Lien Obligations or Second-Lien Subordinated
Obligations or any guarantee thereof;

          (d) the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the
Borrower or any other Grantor; or

          (e) any other circumstances which otherwise might constitute a defense available to, or
a discharge of, the Borrower or any other Grantor in respect of the First-Lien Obligations,
or of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any Second-Lien Creditor in respect of this
Agreement.

          SECTION 8. Miscellaneous.

          8.1 Conflicts. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement
and the provisions of the First-Lien Documents or the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents, the
provisions of this Agreement shall govern and control.

          8.2 Effectiveness; Continuing Nature of this Agreement; Severability. This Agreement
shall become effective when executed and delivered by the parties hereto. This is a continuing
agreement of lien subordination and the First-Lien Creditors may continue, at any time and without
notice to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor, to extend credit and
other financial accommodations and lend monies to or for the benefit of the Borrower or any other
Grantor constituting First-Lien Obligations in reliance hereon. The Second-Lien Collateral Agent,
on behalf of itself and the other Second-Lien Creditors, hereby agrees that it will not attempt,
directly or indirectly, whether by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to challenge the
enforceability of any provision of this Agreement, and waives any right it may have under
applicable law to revoke this Agreement or any of the provisions of this Agreement. The terms of
this Agreement shall survive, and shall continue in full force and effect, in any Insolvency or
Liquidation Proceeding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement is
intended to constitute and shall be deemed to constitute a “subordination agreement” within the
meaning of Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and is intended to be and shall be interpreted to
be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted pursuant to applicable non-bankruptcy law. Any
provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall not
invalidate the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
All references to the Borrower or any other Grantor shall include the Borrower or such Grantor as
debtor and debtor-in-possession and any receiver or trustee for the Borrower or any other Grantor
(as the case may be) in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. This Agreement shall terminate
and be of no further force and effect, (i) with respect to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, the
other Second-Lien Creditors and the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations, upon the later of (1) the
date upon which the obligations under the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents terminate if
there are no other Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations outstanding on such date and (2) if there
are other Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations outstanding on such date, the date upon which such
Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations terminate and (ii) with respect to the First-Lien Collateral
Agent, the other First-Lien Creditors and the First-Lien Obligations, the date of the Discharge of
First-Lien Obligations, subject to the rights of the First-Lien Creditors under Section 6.5 of this
Agreement.

          8.3 Amendments; Waivers. (a) No amendment, modification or waiver of any of the
provisions of this Agreement by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or the First-Lien Collateral Agent
shall be made unless the same shall be in writing signed on behalf of each party hereto;
provided that (x) the First-Lien Collateral Agent (at the direction of the Required
First-Lien Creditors) may, without the written consent of any other Creditor, agree to
modifications of this Agreement for the purpose of securing additional extensions of credit
(including pursuant to the First-Lien Credit Agreement or any Refinancing or extension thereof) and
adding new creditors as “First-Lien Creditors” and “Creditors” hereunder, so long as such
extensions (and

 

 

 Page 34

resulting additions) do not otherwise give rise to a violation of the express terms of the
First-Lien Credit Agreement, (y) additional Grantors may be added as parties hereto in accordance
with the provisions of Section 8.18 of this Agreement, and (z) without limitation of Section 5.3,
at the sole request and expense of the Borrower, and (i) without the consent of the Second-Lien
Collateral Agent, this Agreement may be modified or amended (A) to add other parties (or any
authorized agent thereof or trustee therefore) holding Parity Lien Debt that are incurred in
compliance with the First-Lien Documents and the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents and (B)
to establish that (1) the Liens on the Second-Lien Collateral securing such Parity Lien Debt shall
be pari passu hereunder with the Liens on such Second-Lien Collateral securing the
Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations and junior and subordinated to the Liens on any such Shared
Collateral securing the First-Lien Obligations and (2) any Parity Lien Debt is expressly subject to
the payment subordination provisions of the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Indenture. Any such
additional party and each party hereto shall be entitled to rely upon a certificate delivered by an
officer of the Borrower certifying that any Parity Lien Debt was issued or borrowed in compliance
with the First-Lien Documents and the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents. Any amendment of
this Agreement that is proposed to be effected without the consent of the Second-Lien Collateral
Agent as permitted by the proviso to the second preceding sentence shall be submitted to the
Second-Lien Collateral Agent for its review at least five (5) Business Days prior to the proposed
effectiveness of such amendment.

          (b) Each waiver of the terms of this Agreement, if any, shall be a waiver only with respect to
the specific instance involved and shall not impair the rights of the parties making such waiver or
the obligations of the other parties to such party in any other respect or at any other time.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Grantor shall have any right to consent to or approve any
amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement except to the extent the
liabilities, duties or obligations of such Grantor are increased or expanded, as the case may be,
as a result of such amendment, modification or waiver.

          8.4 Information Concerning Financial Condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries.
The First-Lien Collateral Agent and the First-Lien Creditors, on the one hand, and the other
Second-Lien Creditors, on the other hand, shall each be responsible for keeping themselves informed
of (a) the financial condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and all endorsers and/or
guarantors of the First-Lien Obligations or the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations and (b) all
other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the First-Lien Obligations or the
Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations. The First-Lien Collateral Agent and the other First-Lien
Creditors shall have no duty to advise the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien
Creditor of information known to it or them regarding such condition or any such circumstances or
otherwise. In the event the First-Lien Collateral Agent or any of the other First-Lien Creditors,
in its or their sole discretion, undertakes at any time or from time to time to provide any such
information to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor, it or they shall
be under no obligation (w) to make, and the First-Lien Collateral Agent and the other First-Lien
Creditors shall not make, any express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect
to the accuracy, completeness, truthfulness or validity of any such information so provided, (x) to
provide any additional information or to provide any such information on any subsequent occasion,
(y) to undertake any investigation or (z) to disclose any information which, pursuant to accepted
or reasonable commercial finance

practices, such party wishes to maintain confidential or is otherwise required to maintain
confidential.

          8.5 Subrogation. Subject to the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations, with respect to
the value of any payments or distributions in cash, property or other assets that the Second-Lien
Creditors or Second-Lien Collateral Agent pay over to the First-Lien Collateral Agent or any of the
other First-Lien Creditors under the terms of this Agreement, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and
the other Second-Lien Creditors shall be subrogated to the rights of the First-Lien Collateral
Agent and such other First-Lien Creditors; provided that, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent,
on behalf of itself and the Second-Lien Creditors, hereby agrees not to assert or enforce all such
rights of subrogation it may acquire as a result of any payment hereunder until the Discharge of
First-Lien Obligations has occurred. Each of the Borrower and each other Grantor acknowledges and
agrees that, the value of any payments or distributions in cash, property or other assets received
by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or the other Second-Lien Creditors and paid over to the
First-Lien Collateral Agent or the other First-Lien Creditors pursuant to, and applied in
accordance with, this Agreement, shall not relieve or reduce any of the Obligations owed by the
Borrower or any other Grantor under the Second-Lien Subordinated Notes Documents.

          8.6 Application of Payments; Consent to Certain Changes. All payments received by the
First-Lien Collateral Agent or the other First-Lien Creditors may be applied, reversed and
reapplied, in whole or in part, to such part of the First-Lien Obligations as the First-Lien
Creditors, in their sole discretion, deem appropriate. The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf
of itself and the Second-Lien Creditors, assents to any extension or postponement of the time of
payment of the First-Lien Obligations or any part thereof and to any other indulgence with respect
thereto, to any substitution, exchange or, subject to the terms of Section 5.1(a) hereof, release
of any security constituting Shared Collateral which may at any time secure any part of the
First-Lien Obligations and to the addition or release of any other Person primarily or secondarily
liable therefor; provided, that the parties hereto agree that (x) the Borrower shall not,
and shall not permit any other Grantor to, substitute or exchange any security constituting Shared
Collateral under this Section 8.6, unless it has also granted or contemporaneously grants a Lien on
such substituted or exchanged asset or property to secure the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations
and has taken all actions to perfect such new Liens, and (y) in furtherance of Section 2.4(ii)
hereof, with respect to any Person added or released as a guarantor pursuant to this Section 8.6,
the parties will enter into such documentation as is necessary to ensure that the guarantors for
the First-Lien Obligations and the Second-Lien Subordinated Obligations shall be identical.

UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMIT TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK

2. APPOINTMENT OF WARRANT AGENT. The Company hereby appoints the Warrant Agent to act
as agent for the Company in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, and the Warrant Agent
hereby accepts such appointment. The Company may from time to time appoint such co-Warrant Agents
as it may, in its sole discretion, deem necessary or desirable.

3. FORM OF WARRANT CERTIFICATES. The Warrant Certificates (together with the
subscription form and the assignment form to be printed on the reverse thereof) shall be
substantially in the form of Exhibit 1 hereto and may have such marks of identification or
designation and such legends, summaries or endorsements printed thereon as the Company may deem
appropriate and as are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Warrant Agreement and the
Exchange Offer or as may be required to comply with any law or with any rule or regulation made
pursuant thereto, or to conform to usage.

4. COUNTERSIGNATURE AND REGISTRATION.

     4.1 The Warrant Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman, its
President or a Vice President, either manually or by facsimile signature, and have affixed thereto
the Company’s seal (if any) or a facsimile thereof which shall be attested by the Secretary or an
Assistant Secretary of the Company, either manually or by facsimile signature. The Warrant
Certificates shall be manually countersigned by the Warrant Agent and shall not be valid for any
purpose unless so countersigned. In case any officer of the Company who shall have signed any of
the Warrant Certificates shall cease to be such officer of the Company before countersignature by
the Warrant Agent and issuance and delivery by the Company, such Warrant Certificates,
nevertheless, may be countersigned by the Warrant Agent, issued and delivered with the same force
and effect as though the person who signed such Warrant Certificate had not ceased to be such
officer of the Company; and any Warrant Certificate may be signed on behalf of the Company by any
person who, at the actual date of the execution of such Warrant Certificate, shall be a proper
officer of the Company to sign such Warrant Certificate, although at the date of the execution of
this Warrant Agreement any such person was not such an officer.

     4.2 The Warrant Agent will keep or cause to be kept, at one of its offices in Canton,
Massachusetts, or at the office of one of its agents, books for registration and transfer of the
Warrant Certificates issued hereunder. Such books shall show the names and addresses of the
respective holders of the Warrant Certificates, the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of the
Warrant evidenced on the face of each of such Warrant Certificates and the date of each of such
Warrant Certificate.

5. EXERCISE OF WARRANT.

     5.1 Exercise. At any time after the date hereof and until 5:00 p.m., New York City
time, on the Expiration Date for a particular Warrant, a Holder may exercise such Warrant, on any
Business Day, to purchase all or any part of the number of Shares purchasable thereunder, at the
stated Exercise Price. The Holder may exercise such Warrant, in whole or in part, by delivering to
the Warrant Agent at the principal office of the Warrant Agent in Canton, Massachusetts or to the
office of one of its agents as may be designated by the Warrant Agent from time to time, the
following: (i) the corresponding Warrant Certificate, with the election to purchase form on the
reverse side thereof duly completed and executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney, and
(ii) payment of the Warrant Price. As soon as practicable after the exercise of

4

 

such Warrant, in whole or in part, the
Warrant Agent shall promptly request that the Company’s transfer agent issue and deliver or
register in the name of the Holder thereof or, subject to Section 6, as the Holder may direct, the number of duly authorized, validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable Shares to which the Holder shall be entitled upon such
exercise plus, in lieu of any fractional Share to which the Holder would otherwise be entitled,
cash in an amount equal to the same fraction of the Market Price per Share on the Business Day next
preceding the date of such exercise. Certificates for Warrant Shares purchased by exercise of a
Warrant will be transmitted by the Company’s transfer agent to the Holder by crediting the account
of the Holder’s prime broker with the Depositary Trust Company
through its Deposit Withdrawal At Custodian  (“DWAC”) system if the Company is a participant in such system, and otherwise by
physical delivery to the address specified by the Holder in the
notice of exercise, payment of the Warrant Price and surrender of the
Warrant Certificate. The Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been issued, and the Holder (or
designee) shall be deemed to be a holder of record of the Warrant Shares, as of the date a Warrant
is exercised by payment of the Warrant Price and all taxes required to be paid by the holder, if
any, pursuant to Section 5.2. Any certificates so delivered shall be in such denominations as may
be reasonably requested by the Holder hereof, shall be registered in the name of such Holder and
shall bear a restrictive legend. If a Warrant shall have been exercised only in part, then the
Warrant Agent shall request that the Company’s transfer agent, at the time of issuance of the
Warrant Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant Certificate of like tenor, calling in the
aggregate on the face thereof for issuance of the number of Shares equal (without giving effect to
any adjustment therein) to the number of such Shares called for on the face of the surrendered
Warrant Certificate minus the number of such Shares so designated by such Holder upon such exercise
as provided in this Section 5.1.

     5.2 Payment of Taxes. When the Warrant Price is paid to the Company, all Warrant
Shares issued pursuant to Section 5.1 shall be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. The
Company shall pay all expenses in connection with, and all taxes and other governmental charges
that may be imposed with respect to, the issue or delivery thereof, unless such tax or charge is
imposed by law upon the Holder exercising its Warrant, in which case, such Holder shall pay such
taxes or charges. Neither the Warrant Agent nor the Company shall be required to pay any tax or other charge imposed in
connection with any transfer involved in the issue or delivery of any certificate for Shares
issuable upon exercise of a Warrant in any name other than that of the Holder thereof, and in such
case, the Company’s transfer agent shall not be directed to record in its books and records such
Shares in any name other than the Holder’s name until such tax or other charge has been paid or it
has been established to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company that no such tax or other charge
is due.

     5.3 Restriction on Exercise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a
Warrant may not be exercised prior to the Holder thereof obtaining any necessary approvals from the
Federal Communications Commission (the “FCC”) or if such exercise would result in a
violation of the United States Federal Communications Act of 1934, as amended, or the rules and the
policies promulgated by the FCC thereunder. The Warrant Agent’s
sole obligation in this regard shall be to honor any stop-transfer
order from the Company, if so given.

5

 

6. TRANSFER, DIVISION, COMBINATION AND EXCHANGE OF WARRANT CERTIFICATES.

     6.1 Subject to Section 6.2, and subject to applicable law, rules or regulations, restrictions
on transferability that may appear on Warrant Certificates in accordance with the terms hereof or
any “stop transfer” instructions the Company may give to the Warrant Agent, at any time at or prior
to 5:00 p.m., New York City time on the Expiration Date for a particular Warrant or Warrants, any
corresponding Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates may be transferred, split up, combined or
exchanged for another Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates, entitling the Holder thereof to
purchase a like number of Shares as the Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates surrendered
then entitled such Holder to purchase. Any Holder desiring to transfer, split up, combine or
exchange any Warrant Certificate shall make such request in writing delivered to the Warrant Agent,
and shall surrender the Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates to be transferred, split up,
combined or exchanged at the principal office of the Warrant Agent. Thereupon the Warrant Agent
shall, subject to Section 6.2, countersign and deliver to the person entitled thereto a Warrant
Certificate or Warrant Certificates, as the case may be, as so
requested. No transfer of a Warrant will be effected unless the
Warrant Certificate or the instruction to transfer, as the case may
be, is affixed with a signature guarantee stamp by a guarantor
institution approved by the Securities Transfer Association.

     6.2 The Company shall cause the Warrant Agent to prepare, issue and deliver at the Company’s
own cost and expense the new Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates pursuant to this Section
6, except that the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental
charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer, split up, combination or exchange of
Warrant Certificates, together with reimbursement to the Company and the Warrant Agent of all
reasonable expenses incidental thereto.

7. ADJUSTMENTS. The number of Shares for which a Warrant is exercisable, and the price
at which such Shares may be purchased upon exercise of a Warrant, shall be subject to adjustment
from time to time as set forth in this Section 7. The Company shall cause the Warrant Agent to give
each Holder notice of any event described below that requires an adjustment pursuant to this
Section 7 at the time of such event.

     7.1 Distributions, Subdivisions and Combinations. If, at any time, the Company:

     (a) subdivides its outstanding Shares into a larger number of Shares,

     (b) combines its outstanding Shares into a smaller number of Shares, or

     (c) makes a dividend payment or other distribution to the holders of its Shares payable in
Additional Shares,

then (i) the number of Shares for which a Warrant is exercisable immediately after the occurrence
of any such event shall be adjusted to equal the number of Shares that a record holder of the same
number of Shares for which a Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the occurrence of such
event would own or be entitled to receive after the happening of such event, and (ii) the Exercise
Price shall be adjusted to equal (A) the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Shares for
which a Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the adjustment divided by (B) the number of
Shares for which a Warrant is exercisable immediately after such adjustment. In computing
adjustments under this Section 7.1, fractional interests in Shares shall be taken into account to
the nearest one-hundredth of a Share.

6

 

     7.2 Reclassification, Reorganization, Merger or Consolidation. In case of any
reclassification, reorganization, merger, consolidation or other change in the capital stock of the
Company (other than as a result of a distribution, subdivision or combination provided for in
Section 7.1), then, as a condition of such reclassification, reorganization, merger, consolidation
or other change, lawful provision shall be made, and duly executed documents evidencing same from
the Company or its successor shall be delivered to the Holders, so that the Holders shall have the
right at any time prior to the expiration of their respective Warrants to purchase, at the same
total price equal to that payable upon the exercise of their respective Warrants, the kind and
amount of shares of stock and other securities or property receivable in connection with such
reclassification, reorganization, merger, consolidation or other change by a holder of the same
number and type of securities as were purchasable upon exercise of their respective Warrants by the
Holders immediately prior to such reclassification, reorganization, merger, consolidation or other
change. In any such case, appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and
interest of the Holders so that the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable with respect
to any shares of stock or other securities or property deliverable upon exercise of a Warrant, and
appropriate adjustments shall be made to the Exercise Price payable thereunder. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event of any transaction described in this Section 7.2 in which the consideration
to be received by holders of Shares is payable only in cash, then the Holders shall each only be
entitled to receive upon the closing of such transaction cash in the amount, if any, that such cash
payment per Share exceeds the Exercise Price, and upon the closing of such transaction each Warrant
shall solely represent the right to receive such consideration, if any, and upon such payment, if
any, shall terminate and have no further force or effect, or shall so terminate if no such payment
is due.

8. PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS.

     8.1 With respect to any issuance or portion thereof (other than an “Excluded Issuance,” as
defined below) by the Company of Additional Shares, each Holder may elect to subscribe for and
purchase for the issuance price offered by the Company its Pro Rata Allocation of such Additional
Shares. “Excluded Issuance” means (i) any shares issued as stock dividends, or pursuant to
stock splits, recapitalization or other similar events that do not adversely affect the
proportionate amount of the Company’s equity held by stockholders; (ii) securities issued pursuant
to a firm commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to a registration statement under the
Securities Act; and (iii) capital stock, or warrants or options to purchase capital stock, issued
as consideration to third parties in connection with bona fide acquisitions, mergers or strategic
partner transactions.

     8.2 The Company shall cause the Warrant Agent to give each Holder 20 days’ written notice
prior to consummating any sale or offering of Additional Shares and shall advise each Holder of its
rights under this Section 8 to participate in such offering. The notice shall describe the per
Share price (the “Subscription Price”) and the terms on which the Company proposes to sell,
transfer, or otherwise distribute the Additional Shares, together with a calculation of such
Holder’s Pro Rata Allocation and the number of Additional Shares it would be allowed to purchase
under this Section 8. The Holder shall have 20 days after the receipt of the notice to advise the
Company in writing whether it will exercise its rights hereunder. If a Holder does not so exercise
its rights hereunder within such time period, then the Company shall be free to sell such Holder’s
Pro Rata Allocation of Additional Shares on the terms set forth in the Company’s written notice
described above.

7

 

9. TAG-ALONG RIGHTS.

     9.1 If Parent proposes to Transfer, in one or a series of related transactions to a bona fide
third party (a “Tag-Along Sale”), Shares representing 5% or more of the Fully Diluted
Outstanding Shares, then Parent shall provide to each Holder of Exchange Offer Warrants (each an
“Offeree” and, collectively, the “Offerees”) written notice (the “Tag-Along
Offer Notice”) specifying:

     (a) the number of Shares that Parent desires to Transfer;

     (b) the names of any proposed purchasers and a description of the proposed Transfer;

     (c) the amount and nature of the consideration (with a reasonable description thereof) to be
received by Parent and the other terms and conditions of the proposed Transfer; and

     (d) an offer (the “Participation Offer”) to each Offeree of the right to Transfer to
the proposed transferee pursuant to the Tag-Along Sale up to such Offeree’s Tag-Along Pro Rata
Share of Shares. For such purposes, each Offeree’s “Tag-Along Pro Rata Share” means a
fraction, expressed as a percentage, (i) the numerator of which is the sum of the number of Shares
held of record by such Offeree as a result of exercise of its Exchange Offer Warrant, plus the
number of Shares for which Exchange Offer Warrants held by such Offeree then remain exercisable,
and (ii) the denominator of which is the number of Shares held of record by Parent, and by all
Holders of Exchange Offer Warrants as a result of exercise of Exchange Offer Warrants, plus the
number of Shares for which all Exchange Offer Warrants held by all Offerees then remain
exercisable.

     The date of the Tag-Along Offer Notice (the “Tag-Along Offer Date”) shall be the third
Business Day after Parent has sent the Tag-Along Offer Notice to all of the Offerees by one of the
methods provided in Section 17.1.

     9.2 Each Offeree shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in the Tag-Along
Sale contemplated by the Tag-Along Offer Notice by selling up to its Tag-Along Pro Rata Share of
Shares to the proposed transferee. All Shares Transferred by Offerees pursuant to this Section 9
shall be Transferred at the same price and terms, and in the same form, and otherwise treated the
same as the Shares being sold by Parent; provided, that, if an Offeree is exercising its Exchange
Offer Warrant in order to participate in such Tag-Along Sale as described below and does not
otherwise pay the related exercise price in connection with such exercise, the exercise price for
the number of Shares for which it is exercised shall be deducted from such proceeds.

     9.3 Each of the Offerees shall have the option for 30 days following the Tag-Along Offer Date
(the “Tag-Along Acceptance Period”), to accept in writing (the “Tag-Along Purchase
Notice”) the Participation Offer, specifying the number of Shares that such Offeree desires to
sell in the Tag-Along Sale (up to its Tag-Along Pro Rata Share). The Tag-Along Purchase Notice
shall include wire transfer instructions for payment of the aggregate purchase price for the Shares
to be sold in such Tag-Along Sale. Delivery of the Tag-Along Purchase Notice shall constitute an
irrevocable acceptance of the Participation Offer by such Offeree, and, if necessary for the
Offeree to participate in the Tag-Along Sale, the Offeree’s election, which may be conditioned

8

 

upon closing of the Tag-Along Sale, to exercise its Exchange Offer Warrant for the number of
Shares elected to be sold by it in the Tag-Along Sale.

     9.4 In order to accept the Participation Offer and exercise its right to participate in the
Tag-Along Sale, an Offeree shall deliver its Tag-Along Purchase Notice to Parent prior to the
expiration of the Tag-Along Acceptance Period.

     9.5 Each Offeree’s right to participate in a Tag-Along Sale shall be conditioned upon (i) the
consummation of the transactions contemplated in the Tag-Along Offer Notice with the transferee
named therein and with Persons exercising their rights pursuant to this Section 9, and (ii) such
Offeree’s execution and delivery of all agreements and other documents as Parent is required to
execute and deliver in connection with such Transfer. If any Offeree shall accept the Participation
Offer, Parent shall reduce, to the extent necessary, the number of Shares it otherwise would have
sold in the proposed Transfer so as to permit each Offeree who has accepted the Participation Offer
to sell up to its Tag-Along Pro Rata Share of Shares.

     9.6 Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 9, there shall be no liability on the
part of Parent to the Offerees if the Transfer of the Shares pursuant to this Section 9 is not
consummated for whatever reason. Whether to effect a Transfer of Shares by Parent is in its sole
and absolute discretion.

     9.7 Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 9, the rights and obligations of the
Offerees to participate in a Tag-Along Sale are subject to the following conditions:

     (a) (1) no Offeree shall be required to make any representation or warranty in connection
with such Transfer other than representations or warranties (A) that such Offeree’s Shares will be
Transferred free and clear of all liens, (B) with respect to such Offeree’s power, authority and
due authorization to effect such transfer of its Shares, (C) that the documents to be entered into
by the Offeree have been duly executed by the Offeree and delivered to the acquiror and are
enforceable against the Offeree in accordance with their respective terms, and (D) that neither
the execution and delivery of the documents to be entered into in connection with the transaction,
nor the performance of the Offeree’s obligations thereunder, will cause a breach of violation of
the terms of any agreement, law or judgment, order or decree of any court or governmental agency;
and (2) any indemnification provided by Offerees (x) will be several and not joint, and limited to
any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense resulting from a breach of the foregoing
representations and warranties and (y) shall not exceed an amount equal to the net cash proceeds
(before deducting expenses) received by the Offeree from the sale of such Shares;

     (b) no Offeree participating therein shall be obligated to pay any expenses incurred in
connection with any unconsummated Tag-Along Sale, and each such Offeree shall be obligated to pay
only its pro rata share (based on the number of Shares Transferred) of expenses incurred in
connection with a consummated Tag-Along Sale to the extent such expenses are incurred for the
benefit of all the stockholders of the Company and are not otherwise paid by the Company; and

     (c) no stockholder of the Company shall be required to enter into any non-compete or similar
agreement in connection with any Tag-Along Sale.

10. NO IMPAIRMENT. The Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation,
through any amendment to its certificate of incorporation through any reorganization, transfer of
assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary
action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant
Agreement, but will at all times in good faith assist in carrying out all such actions as may be
reasonably necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of the Holders against impairment.

11. RESERVATION AND AUTHORIZATION OF SHARES. From and after the date of this Warrant
Agreement, the Company shall at all times reserve and keep available for issue upon the exercise of
the Warrants such number of its authorized but unissued Shares as will be sufficient to permit the
exercise in full of all Warrants. All Shares, when issued upon exercise of any Warrant and payment
therefor in accordance with the terms of this Warrant Agreement, shall be duly and validly issued
and fully paid and nonassessable, and not subject to preemptive rights.

12. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER; RESTRICTIVE LEGEND.

     12.1 The Warrants (and any Warrant Shares) are not registered under the Securities Act and may
not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S.
persons (as defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act) except to (a) qualified institutional
buyers in reliance on the exemption from registration requirements of the Securities Act provided
by Rule 144A or (b) persons in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S under the
Securities Act.

     12.2 Each certificate, if any, representing Warrant Shares shall bear the following legend:

“THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER
THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR ANY STATE
SECURITIES LAWS AND CANNOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED
OF UNLESS REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER APPLICABLE STATE
SECURITIES LAWS OR UNLESS THE COMPANY SHALL HAVE RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL
REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT REGISTRATION OF SUCH SECURITIES
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF APPLICABLE STATE
SECURITIES LAWS ARE NOT REQUIRED.

THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO ADDITIONAL
RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER AND OTHER AGREEMENTS SET FORTH IN THE LETTER OF
TRANSMITTAL AND CONSENT EXECUTED BY THE INITIAL HOLDER OF THE WARRANT PURSUANT
TO WHICH THESE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED. COPIES OF THIS DOCUMENT MAY BE
OBTAINED BY THE HOLDER HEREOF AT THE COMPANY’S PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS
WITHOUT CHARGE.”

13. SUPPLYING INFORMATION. The Company and the Warrant Agent shall cooperate with each
Holder in supplying such information as may be reasonably necessary for such Holder to complete and
file any information reporting forms presently or hereafter required by the

10

 

Commission as a condition to the availability of an exemption from the Securities Act for the sale
or transfer of a Warrant or any Warrant Shares.

14. LOSS, THEFT, DESTRUCTION OR MUTILATION. Upon receipt by the Company and the
Warrant Agent of evidence reasonably satisfactory to them of the ownership of and the loss, theft,
destruction or mutilation of a Warrant Certificate, and

     (a) in
the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably
satisfactory to the Warrant Agent and the Company, or

     (b) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation thereof,

the Company will instruct the Warrant Agent to make and deliver a new Warrant Certificate of like
tenor to the Holder in lieu of the Warrant Certificate so lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated.

15. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY. The Company represents
and warrants to, and agrees, as of the date hereof and as of the date of any exercise of a Warrant,
that: (a) this Warrant Agreement has been duly authorized, validly issued and is a valid and
binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with the terms
hereof, except as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other
laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights, or as limited by general
principles of equity; (b) assuming the truth and accuracy of each Holder’s representations and
warranties set forth in the Letter of Transmittal executed by the initial Holder thereof in
connection with the issuance of an Exchange Offer Warrant, the issuance of such Warrant and the
issuance of Warrant Shares pursuant to such Warrant are exempt from the registration and prospectus
delivery requirements of the Securities Act; and (c) the Company agrees that neither it nor any
Person acting on its behalf has offered or will offer any Warrant or Warrant Shares or any part
thereof or any similar securities for issue or sale to, or has solicited or will solicit any offer
to acquire any of the same from, any Person so as to bring the issuance and sale of the Warrant or
the Warrant Shares hereunder within the provisions of the registration and prospectus delivery
requirements of the Securities Act.

16. THE WARRANT AGENT.

     16.1 Fees and Expenses. The Company agrees to pay to the Warrant Agent reasonable
compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder and, from time to time, on demand of the
Warrant Agent, its reasonable expenses and counsel fees and other disbursements incurred in the
administration and execution of this Warrant Agreement and the exercise and performance of its
duties hereunder.

     16.2 Indemnification. The Company covenants and agrees to indemnify and to hold the
Warrant Agent harmless against any costs, expenses (including reasonable fees of its legal
counsel), losses or damages, which may be paid, incurred or suffered by or to which it may become
subject, arising from or out of, directly or indirectly, any claims or liability resulting from its
actions as Warrant Agent pursuant hereto; provided, that such covenant and agreement does not
extend to, and the Warrant Agent shall not be indemnified with respect to, such costs, expenses,
losses and damages incurred or suffered by the Warrant Agent as a result of, or arising out of, its
negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct.

11

 

     16.3 Purchase or Consolidation or Change of Name of Warrant Agent.

     (a) Any corporation into which the Warrant Agent or any successor Warrant Agent may be merged
or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger or
consolidation to which the Warrant Agent or any successor Warrant Agent shall be party, or any
corporation succeeding to the corporate trust business of the Warrant Agent or any successor
Warrant Agent, shall be the successor to the Warrant Agent under this Warrant Agreement without
the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto,
provided that such corporation would be eligible for appointment as a successor Warrant Agent
under the provisions of Section 16.5. In case at the time such successor Warrant Agent shall
succeed to the agency created by this Warrant Agreement any of the Warrant Certificates shall have
been countersigned but not delivered, any such successor Warrant Agent may adopt the
countersignature of the predecessor Warrant Agent and deliver such Warrant Certificates so
countersigned; and in case at that time any of the Warrant Certificates shall not have been
countersigned, any successor Warrant Agent may countersign such Warrant Certificates either in the
name of the predecessor Warrant Agent or in the name of the successor Warrant Agent; and in all
such cases such Warrant Certificates shall have the full force provided in the Warrant
Certificates and in this Warrant Agreement.

     (b) In case at any time the name of the Warrant Agent shall be changed and at such time any
of the Warrant Certificates shall have been countersigned but not delivered, the Warrant Agent may
adopt the countersignature under its prior name and deliver Warrant Certificates so countersigned;
and in case at that time any of the Warrant Certificates shall not have been countersigned, the
Warrant Agent may countersign such Warrant Certificates either in its prior name or in its changed
name; and in all such cases such Warrant Certificates shall have the full force provided in the
Warrant Certificates and in this Warrant Agreement.

     16.4 Duties of Warrant Agent. The Warrant Agent undertakes the duties and obligations
imposed by this Agreement upon the following terms and conditions, by all of which the Company and
the Holders, by their acceptance of Warrant Certificates, shall be bound:

     (a) The Warrant Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be legal counsel for the
Company), and the opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection
to the Warrant Agent as to any action taken or omitted by it in good faith and in accordance with
such opinion.

     (b) Whenever in the performance of its duties under this Warrant Agreement the Warrant Agent
shall deem it necessary or desirable that any fact or matter be proved or established by the
Company prior to taking or suffering any action hereunder, such fact or matter (unless other
evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may be deemed to be conclusively
proved and established by a certificate signed by the Chairman, President or any Vice President of
the Company and by the Treasurer or any Assistant Treasurer or the Secretary of the Company and
delivered to the Warrant Agent; and such certificate shall be full authentication to the Warrant
Agent for any action taken or suffered in good faith by it under the provisions of this Warrant
Agreement in reliance upon such certificate.

     (c) The Warrant Agent shall be liable hereunder only for its own negligence, bad faith or
willful misconduct.

12

 

     (d) The Warrant Agent shall not be liable for or by reason of any of the statements of fact
or recitals contained in this Warrant Agreement or in the Warrant Certificates (except its
countersignature thereof) or be required to verify the same, but all such statements and recitals
are and shall be deemed to have been made by the Company only.

     (e) The Warrant Agent shall not be under any responsibility in respect of the validity of
this Warrant Agreement or the execution and delivery hereof (except the due execution hereof by
the Warrant Agent) or in respect of the validity or execution of any Warrant Certificate (except
its countersignature thereof); nor shall it be responsible for any breach by the Company of any
covenant or condition contained in this Warrant Agreement or in any Warrant Certificate; nor shall
it be responsible for the adjustment of the Exercise Price or the making of any change in the
number of Shares required under the provisions of Section 7 or responsible for the manner, method
or amount of any such change or the ascertaining of the existence of facts that would require any
such adjustment or change (except with respect to the exercise of Warrants evidenced by Warrant
Certificates after actual notice of any adjustment of the Exercise Price); nor shall it by any act
hereunder be deemed to make any representation or warranty as to the authorization or reservation
of any Shares to be issued pursuant to this Warrant Agreement or any Warrant Certificate or as to
whether any Shares will, when issued, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable.

     (f) The Company agrees that it will perform, execute, acknowledge and deliver or cause to be
performed, executed, acknowledged and delivered all such further and other acts, instruments and
assurances as may reasonably be required by the Warrant Agent for the carrying out or performing
by the Warrant Agent of the provisions of this Warrant Agreement.

     (g) The Warrant Agent is hereby authorized  to accept instructions with respect
to the performance of its duties hereunder from the Chairman or the President or any Vice
President or the Secretary of the Company, and to apply to such officers for advice or
instructions in connection with its duties, and it shall not be liable and shall be indemnified
and held harmless for any action taken or suffered to be taken by it in good faith in accordance
with instructions of any such officer, provided Warrant Agent carries out such instructions
without negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

     (h) The Warrant Agent and any shareholder, director, officer or employee of the Warrant Agent
may buy, sell or deal in any of the Warrants or other securities of the Company or become
pecuniarily interested in any transaction in which the Company may be interested, or contract with
or lend money to the Company or otherwise act as fully and freely as though it were not Warrant
Agent under this Warrant Agreement. Nothing herein shall preclude the Warrant Agent from acting in
any other capacity for the Company or for any other legal entity.

     (i) The Warrant Agent may execute and exercise any of the rights or powers hereby vested in
it or perform any duty hereunder either itself or by or through its attorney or agents, and the
Warrant Agent shall not be answerable or accountable for any act, default, neglect or misconduct
of any such attorney or agents or for any loss to the Company resulting from any such act,
default, neglect or misconduct, provided reasonable care was exercised in the selection and
continued employment thereof.

     (j) In
no event shall the Warrant Agent’s aggregate liability hereunder
with respect to, arising from, or arising in connection with this
Agreement, whether in contract or in tort, or otherwise exceed
amounts paid hereunder by the Company to the Warrant Agent as fees
and charges but not including reimbursable expenses.

13

 

     16.5 Change of Warrant Agent. The Warrant Agent may resign and be discharged from its
duties under this Warrant Agreement upon 30 days’ notice in writing mailed to the Company and to
each transfer agent of the Company by registered or certified mail, and to the Holders by
first-class mail. The Company may remove the Warrant Agent or any successor Warrant Agent upon 30
days’ notice in writing, mailed to the Warrant Agent or successor Warrant Agent, as the case may
be, and to each transfer agent of the Company by registered or certified mail, and to the Holders
by first-class mail. If the Warrant Agent shall resign or be removed or shall otherwise become
incapable of acting, the Company shall appoint a successor to the Warrant Agent. If the Company
shall fail to make such appointment within a period of 30 days after such removal or after it has
been notified in writing of such resignation or incapacity by the resigning or incapacitated
Warrant Agent or by a Holder (who shall, with such notice, submit its Warrant Certificate for
inspection by the Company), then the registered Holder may apply to any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a new Warrant Agent. Any successor Warrant Agent, whether
appointed by the Company or by such a court, shall be a corporation organized and doing business
under the laws of the United States or of a state thereof, in good standing, which is authorized
under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers and is subject to supervision or examination by
federal or state authority and which has at the time of its appointment as Warrant Agent a combined
capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. After appointment, the successor Warrant Agent shall
be vested with the same powers, rights, duties and responsibilities as if it had been originally
named as Warrant Agent without further act or deed; but the predecessor Warrant Agent shall deliver
and transfer to the successor Warrant Agent any property at the time held by it hereunder, and
execute and deliver any further assurance, conveyance, act or deed necessary for the purpose. Not
later than the effective date of any such appointment, the Company shall file notice thereof in
writing with the predecessor Warrant Agent and each transfer agent of the Company, and mail a
notice thereof in writing to the registered Holders . However, failure to give any notice provided
for in this Section 16.5, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of the
resignation or removal of the Warrant Agent or the appointment of the successor Warrant Agent, as
the case may be.

17. MISCELLANEOUS.

     17.1 Notices. Any notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration, delivery or
other communication to be made pursuant to the provisions of this Warrant Agreement shall be deemed
sufficiently given or made if in writing and either delivered in person with receipt acknowledged
or sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or by telecopy
and confirmed by telecopy answerback, addressed as follows:

     (a) If to any Holder or holder of Warrant Shares, at its last known address appearing on the
books of the Warrant Agent maintained for such purpose.

14

 

     (b) If to the Company at:

CMP Susquehanna Radio Holdings Corp.

3280 Peachtree Road, N.W.

Suite 2300

Atlanta, Georgia 30305

     (c) If to the Warrant Agent at:

Computershare Trust Company, N.A.

250 Royall Street

Canton, Massachusetts 02021

Attention: Client Administration

Telecopy: (781) 575-2549

or at such address as may be substituted by notice given as herein provided. The party entitled to
receive any notice required hereunder may waive such notice in writing. Every notice, demand,
request, consent, approval, declaration, delivery or other communication hereunder shall be deemed
to have been duly given or served on the date on which personally delivered, with receipt
acknowledged, telecopied and confirmed by telecopy answerback, or three Business Days after the
same shall have been deposited in the U.S. mail. Notice by electronic mail shall not constitute
effective notice hereunder.

     17.2 No Voting Rights; Rights upon Bankruptcy. Holders of Warrants (in their
capacities as such) will not have the right to vote on matters submitted to stockholders of the
Company, to receive dividends in respect of the capital stock of the Company or to share in the
Company’s assets in the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company. In the
event a bankruptcy or reorganization is commenced by or against the Company, a bankruptcy court may
hold that unexercised Warrants are executory contracts that may be subject to rejection by the
Company with approval of the bankruptcy court, and the holders of Warrants may, even if sufficient
funds are available, receive nothing or a lesser amount than that to which they would otherwise be
entitled as a result of any such bankruptcy case if they had exercised their Warrants prior to the
commencement of any such case.

     17.3 Successors and Assigns. Subject to the provisions of Section 6, this Warrant
Agreement and the rights evidenced hereby and by any Warrant Certificate shall inure to the benefit
of and be binding upon the successors of the Company and the successors and assigns of each Holder.

     17.4 Amendment. This Warrant Agreement may be modified or amended or the provisions
hereof waived upon the written agreement of the parties hereto and, to the extent any
modification or amendment would enlarge the obligations or
liabilities of the Majority Holders
hereunder, with the written consent of the Majority Holders.

     17.5 Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant Agreement shall
be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any
provision of this Warrant Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such

15

 

provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without
invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Warrant Agreement.

     17.6 Headings. The headings used in this Warrant Agreement are for the convenience of
reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant Agreement.

     17.7 Governing Law. This Warrant Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State
of New York, without regard to the provisions thereof relating to conflict of laws.

     17.8 No Rights or Obligations as Stockholder. Nothing contained in this Warrant
Agreement shall be construed as conferring upon any Holder any voting, dividend or other rights as
a stockholder of the Company or as imposing upon any Holder any obligation to purchase any
securities or as imposing any liabilities upon any Holder as a stockholder of the Company, whether
such obligations or liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

     17.9 Facsimile Signature. The signatures on this Warrant Agreement may be by
facsimile, with original signature page to be substituted therefor.
