Dear Gerald:

This letter will outline the terms regarding your voluntary retirement and the subsequent
termination of your employment from EMS Technologies, Inc.

Last Day Worked & Severance: Your last day worked will be July 7, 2006. Subject to your agreement
below within the 45-day period described below, EMS Technologies, Inc. agrees to pay you through
January 19, 2007. During this time, we will expect you to be available on an as-needed basis to
assist with an orderly transition. If the time you are needed exceeds customary transition period,
EMS will extend the end date accordingly. Your last day paid will be your Official Termination
Date.

Accrued Vacation Pay: You will receive vacation pay accrued through July 7, 2006. This will be
included in your final paycheck.

Medical Benefits: Your medical benefits will continue until midnight on your Official Termination
Date. Under federal law, you are entitled to continue your medical coverage through COBRA for a
limited additional period. EMS agrees to reimburse you for your wife's COBRA premiums, less the
amount you would normally pay for your contribution, thru December 2007 after your Official
Termination Date. The premiums that EMS pays for your coverage will be considered taxable income
and you will be responsible for paying any taxes due on that amount.

Your participation in the executive medical reimbursement, Boston Mutual, will end effect December
31, 2006.

Retirement & Stock Purchase Plans: Under the terms of the Retirement Program, and based on your
age and years of service, you will qualify for participation in the Company’s contribution for 2006
under the Retirement Benefit Plan, which is expected to be made in April 2007. However, your
severance pay will not qualify as earnings in determining your RBP contribution. You are able to
participant in the Stock Purchase and 401K Plan, until your official termination date. Appropriate
forms and details as to your alternatives may be obtained from Human Resources.

Stock Options: If you meet the eligibility criteria of the Exercise Terms for the Stock Incentive
Plan, and subject to the other terms specified in the Terms of Officer Stock Options previously
provided to you, you may exercise any Option that would be exercisable on your Official Termination
Date within the period of time outlined in the Terms for terminations considered a Voluntary
Retirement with the consent of the company. Generally, this is a period ending at the earlier of
the Expiration Date or 5:00 p.m., Atlanta time, on the date that is three years after the date of
Termination of Employment. Please refer to each Stock Option Agreement for the terms.

Return of Assets: All EMS Technologies, Inc. assets assigned to you must be returned promptly in
proper working order aside from the following exceptions. EMS Technologies agrees to allow you to
reasonably use your laptop computer, cell phone, and air card through the end of your severance. As
for your Company Car, Gas Card and Maintenance Card, you may continue to use these until the lease
on your car expires in October, 2006. At the end of this period, EMS will expect the return of all
assets and supporting equipment in proper working order.

Commitments described in this Section 2.1.

          SECTION 2.1.1. Commitment of Each Lender. On the Closing Date, each Lender will make

Percentage of the aggregate amount of the Borrowing requested by the Borrower to be made on such

minimum amount of €10,000,000 and a multiple of €1,000,000 (or the Equivalent thereof in Dollars),
or in the unused amount of the Commitments. On the terms and subject to the conditions of this
Agreement, the Borrowing shall be made on the Business Day specified in such Borrowing Request. On
or before 11:00 a.m., New York time, on the Business Day specified in the Borrowing Request, each
Lender shall, without any set-off or counterclaim, deposit with the Administrative Agent same day
funds in an amount equal to such Lender’s Percentage of the requested Borrowing. Such deposit will

without any set-off or counterclaim, make such funds available to the Borrower on the Business Day

as a Loan with an Interest Period of one-month’s duration.

     SECTION 2.5. Funding. Each Lender may, if it so elects, fulfill its obligation to
make or continue its Loan hereunder by causing one of its foreign branches or Affiliates (or an
international banking facility created by such Lender) to make or maintain such Loan;
provided that such Loan shall nonetheless be deemed to have been made and to be held by
such Lender, and the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan shall nevertheless be to such
Lender for the account of such foreign branch, Affiliate or international banking facility.

Note payable to the order of such Lender in a maximum principal amount equal to such Lender’s
Percentage of the original Commitment Amount. The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes each
Lender to make (or cause to be made) appropriate notations on the grid attached to such Lender’s
Note (or on any continuation of such grid), which notations, if made, shall

13

 

evidence, inter
alia, the date of, the outstanding principal of, and the interest rate and Interest Period
applicable to the Loan evidenced thereby, provided that the failure of any Lender to make
any such notations shall not limit or otherwise affect any Obligations of the Borrower.

ARTICLE III

REPAYMENTS, PREPAYMENTS, INTEREST AND FEES

     SECTION 3.1. Repayments and Prepayments. (a) Optional. The Borrower may,
from time to time on any Business Day, make a voluntary prepayment, in whole or in part, of the
outstanding principal amount of the Loans; provided that

     (i) any such prepayment shall be made pro rata among all Loans
included in the same Borrowing;

     (ii) all such voluntary prepayments shall require at least two Business Days’
prior written notice to the Administrative Agent; and

     (iii) all such voluntary partial prepayments shall be in an aggregate minimum
amount of €10,000,000 and a multiple of €1,000,000 (or the Equivalent thereof in
Dollars) (or the remaining amount of the Loans being prepaid); and

          (b) Mandatory. The Borrower shall

     (i) immediately upon any acceleration of the Stated Maturity Date of the Loans
pursuant to Section 8.2 or 8.3 or the mandatory repayment of the
Loans pursuant to Section 9.2, repay all Loans; and

     (ii) on the date and in the amount of the receipt by the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries of Net Cash Proceeds from (A) equity transactions in the capital
markets, (B) the incurrence or issuance of debt having a maturity of more than 270
days in the capital markets or (C) the incurrence of debt in the syndicated
commercial bank market (other than, in the case of each of clauses (B) and (C), in
connection with (1) purchase money financing of a vessel or other assets and (2)
refinancing of any debt under any existing syndicated credit facility), repay the
Loans in an aggregate amount equal to the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds. Any
such repayment shall be applied pro rata among all Loans in the same
Borrowing.

Each prepayment of any Loans made pursuant to this Section shall be without premium or penalty,
except as may be required by Section 4.4.

     SECTION 3.2. Interest Provisions. Interest on the outstanding principal amount of
Loans shall accrue and be payable in accordance with this Section 3.2.

          SECTION 3.2.1. Rates. (a) the Borrower shall pay interest on the Loans at a rate per
annum during each Interest Period equal to the sum of the Index Rate for such Interest Period plus
the Applicable Margin.

14

 

     (b) All Loans shall bear interest from and including the first day of the applicable
Interest Period to (but not including) the last day of such Interest Period at the interest
rate determined as applicable to such Loan.

          SECTION 3.2.2. Post-Maturity Rates. After the date any principal amount of any Loan
is due and payable (whether on the Stated Maturity Date, upon acceleration or otherwise), or after
any other monetary Obligation of the Borrower shall have become due and payable, the Borrower shall
pay, but only to the extent permitted by law, interest (after as well as before judgment) on such
amounts for each day during the period of such default at a rate per annum certified by the
Administrative Agent to the Borrower (which certification shall be conclusive in the absence of
manifest error) to be equal to the sum of (a) the rate of interest applicable to Loans at such time
pursuant to Section 3.2.1 above plus (c) 2% per annum.

          SECTION 3.2.3. Payment Dates. Interest accrued on each Loan shall be payable, without
duplication:

     (a) on the Stated Maturity Date therefor;

     (b) on the date of any payment or prepayment, in whole or in part, of principal
outstanding on such Loan (but only on the principal so paid or prepaid);

     (c) on the last day of each applicable Interest Period (and, if such Interest Period
shall exceed three months, on each date occurring at three month intervals after the
commencement of such Interest Period; and

     (d) on that portion of any Loans the Stated Maturity Date of which is accelerated
pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 8.3, immediately upon such acceleration.

Interest accrued on Loans or other monetary Obligations arising under this Agreement or any Note
after the date such amount is due and payable (whether on Stated Maturity Date, upon acceleration
or otherwise) shall be payable upon demand.

          SECTION 3.2.4. Interest Rate Determination; Replacement Reference Lenders. Each
Reference Lender agrees to furnish to the Administrative Agent timely information for the purpose
of determining the Index Rate in the event that no offered quotation appears on Telerate Page 248
or Telerate Page 3750, as applicable, and the Index Rate is to be determined by reference to
quotations supplied by the Reference Lenders. If any one or more of the Reference Lenders shall
fail to furnish in a timely manner such information to the Administrative Agent for any such
interest rate, the Administrative Agent shall determine such interest rate on the basis of the
information furnished by the remaining Reference Lenders (provided, that, if all of the
Reference Lenders other than the Administrative Agent fail to supply the relevant quotations, the
interest rate will be fixed by reference only to the quotation obtained by the Administrative Agent
in its capacity as a Reference Lender). If a Reference Lender ceases for any reason to be able and
willing to act as such, the Administrative Agent shall, at the direction of the Required Lenders
and after consultation with the Borrower and the Lenders, appoint a replacement for such Reference
Lender reasonably acceptable to the Borrower, and such replaced Reference Lender shall cease to be
a Reference Lender hereunder. The Administrative Agent shall furnish

15

 

to the Borrower and to the
Lenders each determination of the Index Rate made by reference to quotations of interest rates
furnished by Reference Lenders.

     SECTION 3.3. Commitment Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent
for the account of each Lender a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fees”) on the average
daily unused portion of the Commitment Amount, for the period commencing on the Effective Date and
continuing through the Closing Date, as set forth in this Section 3.3.

          SECTION 3.3.1. Payment.

     (a) The Commitment Fees shall be payable by the Borrower in arrears on the last day of
each February, May, August and November (or if such day is not a Business Day, the next
succeeding Business Day), commencing with the first such date following the Effective Date
and ending on the Closing Date.

     (b) The Commitment Fees payable to the Lenders shall be payable by the Borrower in an
amount equal to the product of the Applicable Percentage for Commitment Fees as set forth in
Section 3.3.2, multiplied by the average daily unused portion of the Commitment Amount,
multiplied by the actual number of days elapsed from the earlier of November 30, 2006 and
the Effective Date to the Closing Date, divided by 360. Each payment of Commitment Fee to
the Lenders shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent on the basis of each Lender’s
Percentage of the unused portion of the Commitment Amount for the actual number of days
elapsed.

          SECTION 3.3.2. Applicable Percentage. On the Closing Date (and subject to
adjustment as provided below), the Applicable Percentage shall be the percentage per annum set
forth below opposite the Senior Debt Rating on such date provided by S&P and Moody’s:

	 	 	 	 	 
	Senior Debt Rating	 	Applicable
	(S&P)	 	(Moody’s)	 	Percentage
	BBB or higher
	 	Baa2 or higher	 	.080%
	BBB-
	 	Baa3	 	.100%
	BB+
	 	Ba1	 	.125%
	BB
	 	Ba2	 	.150%
	BB- or lower
	 	Ba3 or lower	 	.200%

provided that:

     (a) if at any time the Senior Debt Rating provided by Moody’s differs from the Senior
Debt Rating provided by S&P by one level, the Applicable Percentage shall be the percentage
per annum set forth opposite the higher of such two Senior Debt Ratings;

     (b) if at any time the Senior Debt Rating provided by Moody’s differs from the Senior
Debt Rating provided by S&P by more than one level, the
Applicable

16

 

Percentage shall be the
percentage per annum set forth opposite the rating one level below the higher of such two
Senior Debt Ratings;

     (c) if at any time a Senior Debt Rating is provided by one of but not both Moody’s and
S&P, the Applicable Percentage shall be determined by reference to the Senior Debt Rating
provided by the agency which gives such rating; and

     (d) if at any time no Senior Debt Rating is provided by Moody’s and no Senior Debt
Rating is provided by S&P, the Applicable Percentage shall be the percentage per annum set
forth opposite the Senior Debt Ratings of BB- or lower and Ba3 or lower unless (i) within 21
days of being notified by the Administrative Agent that both Moody’s and S&P have ceased to
give a Senior Debt Rating, the Borrower has obtained from at least one of such agencies a
private implied rating for its senior debt or (ii) having failed to obtain such private
rating within such 21-day period, the Borrower and the Lenders shall have agreed within a
further 15-day period (during which period the Borrower and the Agents shall consult in good
faith to find an alternative method of providing an implied rating of the Borrower’s senior
debt) on an alternative rating method, which agreed alternative shall apply for the purposes
of this Agreement.

ARTICLE IV

CERTAIN INDEX RATE AND OTHER PROVISIONS

     SECTION 4.1. Index Rate Lending Unlawful. If the introduction of or any change in or
in the interpretation of any law makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental
authority having jurisdiction over such Lender asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender to
make, continue or maintain any Loan bearing interest at a rate based on the Index Rate, the
obligations of such Lender to make, continue or maintain any Loans bearing interest at a rate based
on the Index Rate shall, upon notice thereof to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each
other Lender, forthwith be suspended until the circumstances causing such suspension no longer
exist, provided that such Lender’s obligation to make, continue and maintain Loans
hereunder shall be automatically converted into an obligation to make, continue and maintain Loans
bearing interest at a rate to be negotiated between such Lender and the Borrower that is the
equivalent of the sum of the Index Rate for the relevant Interest Period plus the
Applicable Margin or, if such negotiated rate is not agreed upon by the Borrower and such Lender
within fifteen Business Days, a rate equal to the Overnight Rate (in the case of Loans denominated
in Euros) or the Federal Funds Rate (in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars) from time to time
in effect plus the Applicable Margin.

     SECTION 4.2. Deposits Unavailable. If the Administrative Agent shall have determined
that:

     (a) Dollar deposits in the relevant amount and for the relevant Interest Period are not
available to the Reference Lenders in their relevant market; or

17

 

     (b) by reason of circumstances affecting the Reference Lenders’ relevant market,
adequate means do not exist for ascertaining the interest rate applicable hereunder to Index
Rate Loans,

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice of such determination (hereinafter called a
“Determination Notice”) to the Borrower and each of the Lenders. The Borrower, the Lenders
and the Administrative Agent shall then negotiate in good faith in order to agree upon a mutually
satisfactory interest rate and interest period (or interest periods) to be substituted for those
which would otherwise have applied under this Agreement. If the Borrower, the Lenders and the
Administrative Agent are unable to agree upon an interest rate (or rates) and interest period (or
interest periods) prior to the date occurring fifteen Business Days after the giving of such
Determination Notice, the interest rate to take effect at the end of the Interest Period current at
the date of the Determination Notice shall be equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin plus the
Overnight Rate (in the case of Loans denominated in Euros) or the Federal Funds Rate (in the case
of Loans denominated in Dollars) from time to time in effect.

     SECTION 4.3. Increased Index Rate Loan Costs, etc. If a change in any applicable
treaty, law, regulation or regulatory requirement or in the interpretation thereof or in its
application to the Borrower, or if compliance by any Lender with any applicable direction, request,
requirement or guideline (whether or not having the force of law) of any governmental or other
authority insofar as it may be changed or imposed after the date hereof, shall:

     (a) subject any Lender to any taxes, levies, duties, charges, fees, deductions or
withholdings of any nature with respect to its Loan or any part thereof imposed, levied,
collected, withheld or assessed by any jurisdiction or any political subdivision or taxing
authority thereof (other than taxation on overall net income and, to the extent such taxes
are described in Section 4.6, withholding taxes); or

     (b) change the basis of taxation to any Lender (other than a change in taxation on the
overall net income of such Lender) of payments of principal or interest or any other payment
due or to become due pursuant to this Agreement; or

     (c) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve or capital adequacy requirements
(other than the reserve costs described in Section 4.7) or other banking or monetary
controls or requirements which affect the manner in which a Lender shall allocate its
capital resources to its obligations hereunder or require the making of any special deposits
against or in respect of any assets or liabilities of, deposits with or for the account of,
or loans by, any Lender (provided that such Lender shall, unless prohibited by law,
allocate its capital resources to its obligations hereunder in a manner which is consistent
with its present treatment of the allocation of its capital resources); or

     (d) impose on any Lender any other condition affecting its Loan,

and the result of any of the foregoing is either (i) to increase the cost to such Lender of making
Loans or maintaining its Loan or any part thereof, (ii) to reduce the amount of any payment
received by such Lender or its effective return hereunder or on its capital or (iii) to cause such
Lender to make any payment or to forego any return based on any amount received or receivable

18

 

 by
such Lender hereunder, then and in any such case if such increase or reduction in the opinion of
such Lender materially affects the interests of such Lender, (A) the Lender concerned shall
(through the Administrative Agent) notify the Borrower of the occurrence of such event and use
reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to
designate a different Lending Office if the making of such a designation would avoid the effects of
such law, regulation or regulatory requirement or any change therein or in the interpretation
thereof and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to
such Lender and (B) the Borrower shall forthwith upon demand pay to the Administrative Agent for
the account of such Lender such amount as is necessary to compensate such Lender for such
additional cost or such reduction and ancillary expenses, including taxes, incurred as a result of
such adjustment. Such notice shall (i) describe in reasonable detail the event leading to such
additional cost, together with the approximate date of the effectiveness thereof, (ii) set forth
the amount of such additional cost, (iii) describe the manner in which such amount has been
calculated, (iv) certify that the method used to calculate such amount is the Lender’s standard
method of calculating such amount, (v) certify that such request is consistent with its treatment
of other borrowers that are subject to similar provisions, and (vi) certify that, to the best of
its knowledge, such change in circumstance is of general application to the commercial banking
industry in such Lender’s jurisdiction of organization or in the relevant jurisdiction in which
such Lender does business. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation
pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such
compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender
pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than three months
prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the circumstance giving rise to such
increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor;
provided further that, if the circumstance giving rise to such increased costs or
reductions is retroactive, then the three-month period referred to above shall be extended to
include the period of retroactive effect thereof, but not more than six months prior to the date
that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the circumstance giving rise to such cost or reductions
and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor.

     SECTION 4.4. Funding Losses. In the event any Lender shall incur any loss or expense
by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to
make, continue or maintain any portion of the principal amount of any Loan as an Index Rate Loan as
a result of:

     (a) any conversion or repayment or prepayment of the principal amount of any Loans on a
date other than the scheduled last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, whether
pursuant to Section 3.1 or otherwise; or

     (b) any Loans not being made in accordance with the Borrowing Request therefor due to
the fault of the Borrower or as a result of any of the conditions precedent set forth in
Article V not being satisfied,

then, upon the written notice of such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative
Agent), the Borrower shall, within five Business Days of its receipt thereof, pay directly to such
Lender such amount as will reimburse such Lender for such loss or expense. Such written notice
shall include calculations in reasonable detail setting forth the loss or expense to such Lender.

19

 

     SECTION 4.5. Increased Capital Costs. If any change in, or the introduction,
adoption, effectiveness, interpretation, reinterpretation or phase-in of, any law or regulation,
directive, guideline, decision or request (whether or not having the force of law) of any court,
central bank, regulator or other governmental authority increases the amount of capital required to
be maintained by any Lender or any Person controlling such Lender, and the rate of return on its or
such controlling Person’s capital as a consequence of its Commitment or the Loans made by such
Lender is reduced to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling Person would have
achieved but for the occurrence of any such change in circumstance, then, in any such case upon
notice from time to time by such Lender to the Borrower, the Borrower shall immediately pay
directly to such Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or such controlling
Person for such reduction in rate of return. Any such notice shall (i) describe in reasonable
detail the capital adequacy requirements which have been imposed, together with the approximate
date of the effectiveness thereof, (ii) set forth the amount of such lowered return, (iii) describe
the manner in which such amount has been calculated, (iv) certify that the method used to calculate
such amount is such Lender’s standard method of calculating such amount, (v) certify that such
request for such additional amounts is consistent with its treatment of other borrowers that are
subject to similar provisions and (vi) certify that, to the best of its knowledge, such change in
circumstances is of general application to the commercial banking industry in the jurisdictions in
which such Lender does business. In determining such amount, such Lender may use any method of
averaging and attribution that it shall, subject to the foregoing sentence, deem applicable. Each
Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and
regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Lending Office if the making of such a
designation would avoid such reduction in such rate of return and would not, in the reasonable
judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. Failure or delay on the part
of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such
Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be
required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions
incurred more than three months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the
circumstance giving rise to such reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation
therefor; provided further that, if the circumstance giving rise to such reductions
is retroactive, then the three-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the
period of retroactive effect thereof, but not more than six months prior to the date that such
Lender notifies the Borrower of the circumstance giving rise to such reductions and of such
Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor.

     SECTION 4.6. Taxes. All payments by the Borrower of principal of, and interest on,
the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without
deduction for any present or future income, excise, stamp or franchise taxes and other taxes, fees,
duties, withholdings or other charges of any nature whatsoever imposed by any taxing authority, but
excluding franchise taxes and taxes imposed on or measured by any Lender’s net income or receipts
of such Lender and franchise taxes imposed in lieu of net income taxes or receipts, by the
jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender is organized or any political subdivision thereof
or the jurisdiction of such Lender’s Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof or any
other jurisdiction unless such net income taxes are imposed solely as a result of the Borrower’s
activities in such other jurisdiction (such non-excluded items being called “Taxes”). In
the event that any withholding or deduction from any payment to be made by the Borrower

20

 

hereunder
is required in respect of any Taxes pursuant to any applicable law, rule or regulation, then the
Borrower will:

     (a) pay directly to the relevant authority the full amount required to be so withheld
or deducted;

     (b) promptly forward to the Administrative Agent an official receipt or other
documentation satisfactory to the Administrative Agent evidencing such payment to such
authority; and

     (c) pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders such additional
amount or amounts as is necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by each
Lender will equal the full amount such Lender would have received had no such withholding or
deduction been required.

Moreover, if any Taxes are directly asserted against the Administrative Agent or any Lender with
respect to any payment received by the Administrative Agent or such Lender hereunder or under the
Notes, the Administrative Agent or such Lender may pay such Taxes and the Borrower will promptly
pay such additional amounts (including any penalties, interest or expenses) as is necessary in
order that the net amount received by such person after the payment of such Taxes (including any
Taxes on such additional amount) shall equal the amount such person would have received had not
such Taxes been asserted.

     Any Person claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 4.6 agrees
to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory
restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Lending Office if the making of such a change would
avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue
and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Person, be otherwise disadvantageous to such
Person.

     If the Borrower fails to pay any Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails
to remit to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders, the required
receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify the Lenders for any
incremental withholding Taxes, interest or penalties or expenses that may become payable by any
Lender as a result of any such failure (so long as such amount did not become payable as a result
of the failure of such Lender to provide timely notice to the Borrower of the assertion of a
liability related to the payment of Taxes). For purposes of this Section 4.6, a
distribution hereunder by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to or for the account of any
Lender shall be deemed a payment by the Borrower.

     If any Lender is entitled to any refund, credit, deduction or other reduction in tax by reason
of any payment made by the Borrower in respect of any tax under this Section 4.6 or by
reason of any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 4.3, such Lender shall use
reasonable efforts to obtain such refund, credit, deduction or other reduction and, promptly after
receipt thereof (and, in the case of any such credit, utilization thereof), will pay to the
Borrower such amount (plus any interest received by such Lender in connection with such refund,
credit, deduction or reduction) as is equal to the net after-tax value to such Lender of such part
of such

21

 

refund, credit, deduction or reduction as such Lender reasonably determines is allocable to
such tax or such payment, less out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such Lender, provided
that no Lender shall be obligated to disclose to the Borrower any information regarding its tax
affairs or tax computations.

     Each Lender (and each Participant) that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other
than the United States agrees with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it will (a)
provide to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower an appropriately executed copy of Internal
Revenue Service Form W-8ECI certifying that any payments made to or for the benefit of such Lender
or such Participant are effectively connected with a trade or business in the United States (or,
alternatively, Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, but only if the applicable treaty described in
such form provides for a complete exemption from U.S. federal income tax withholding), or any
successor form, on or prior to the date hereof (or, in the case of any assignee Lender or
Participant, on or prior to the date of the relevant assignment or participation), and (b) notify
the Administrative Agent and the Borrower if the certifications made on any form provided pursuant
to this paragraph are no longer accurate and true in all material respects. For any period with
respect to which a Lender (or Participant) has failed to provide the Borrower with the foregoing
forms (other than if such failure is due to a change in law occurring after the date on which a
form originally was required to be provided or if such form otherwise is not required hereunder)
such Lender (or Participant) shall not be entitled to the benefits of this Section 4.6 with respect
to Taxes imposed by reason of such failure.

     SECTION 4.7. Reserve Costs. Without in any way limiting the Borrower’s obligations
under Section 4.3, the Borrower shall pay to each Lender on the last day of each Interest
Period, so long as the relevant Lending Office of such Lender is required to maintain reserves
against “Eurocurrency liabilities” under Regulation D of the F.R.S. Board, upon notice from such
Lender, an additional amount equal to the product of the following for each Loan for each day
during such Interest Period:

     (i) the principal amount of such Loan outstanding on such day; and

     (ii) the remainder of (x) a fraction the numerator of which is the rate
(expressed as a decimal) at which interest accrues on such Loan for such Interest
Period as provided in this Agreement (less the Applicable Margin) and the
denominator of which is one minus any increase after the Effective Date in
the effective rate (expressed as a decimal) at which such reserve requirements are
imposed on such Lender minus (y) such numerator; and

     (iii) 1/360.

Such notice shall (i) describe in reasonable detail the reserve requirement that has been imposed,
together with the approximate date of the effectiveness thereof, (ii) set forth the applicable
reserve percentage, (iii) certify that such request is consistent with such Lender’s treatment of
other borrowers that are subject to similar provisions and (iv) certify that, to the best of its
knowledge, such requirements are of general application in the commercial banking industry in the
United States.

22

 

     Each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal
and regulatory restrictions) to avoid the requirement of maintaining such reserves (including by
designating a different Lending Office) if such efforts would not, in the reasonable judgment of
such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

     SECTION 4.8. Replacement Lenders, etc. If the Borrower shall be required to make any
payment to any Lender pursuant to Section 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6 or
4.7, the Borrower shall be entitled at any time (so long as no Default and no Prepayment
Event shall have occurred and be continuing) within 180 days after receipt of notice from such
Lender of such required payment to (a) terminate such Lender’s Commitment and such Lender’s right
to receive any Commitment Fee accruing after such termination and that portion of the Commitment
Amount represented by such Lender’s Commitment (whereupon the Percentages of each other Lender
shall automatically be adjusted to an amount equal to each such Lender’s ratable share of the
remaining Commitment Amount), (b) prepay the affected portion of such Lender’s Loan in full,
together with accrued interest thereon through the date of such prepayment (provided that
the Borrower shall not prepay any such Lender pursuant to this clause (b) without replacing such
Lender pursuant to the following clause (c) until a 30-day period shall have elapsed during which
the Borrower and the Agents shall have attempted in good faith to replace such Lender), and/or (c)
replace such Lender with another bank reasonably acceptable to the Agents, provided that
(i) each such assignment shall be either an assignment of all of the rights and obligations of the
assigning Lender under this Agreement or an assignment of a portion of such rights and obligations
made concurrently with another such assignment or other such assignments that together cover all of
the rights and obligations of the assigning Lender under this Agreement and (ii) no Lender shall be
obligated to make any such assignment as a result of a demand by the Borrower pursuant to this
Section unless and until such Lender shall have received one or more payments from either the
Borrower or one or more Assignee Lenders in an aggregate amount at least equal to the outstanding
aggregate principal amount of the Loans owing to such Lender, together with accrued interest
thereon to the date of payment of such principal amount and all other amounts payable to such
Lender under this Agreement. Each Lender represents and warrants to the Borrower that, as of the
date of this Agreement (or, with respect to any Lender not a party hereto on the date hereof, on
the date that such Lender becomes a party hereto), there is no existing treaty, law, regulation,
regulatory requirement, interpretation, directive, guideline, decision or request pursuant to which
such Lender would be entitled to request any payments under any of Sections 4.3,
4.4, 4.5, 4.6 and 4.7 to or for account of such Lender.

     SECTION 4.9. Payments, Computations, etc. (a) Unless otherwise expressly provided,
all payments by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or the Notes shall be made by the Borrower
to the Administrative Agent for the pro rata account of the Lenders entitled to receive such
payment. All such payments required to be made to the Administrative Agent shall be made, without
setoff, deduction or counterclaim, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York time, on the date due, in
same day or immediately available funds through the New York Clearing House Interbank Payments
System (or such other funds as may be customary for the settlement of international banking
transactions in Dollars), to such account as the Administrative Agent shall specify from time to
time by notice to the Borrower. Funds received after that time shall be deemed to have been
received by the Administrative Agent on the next succeeding Business Day. The Administrative Agent
shall promptly (but in any event on the same Business Day that the same are received or, as
contemplated in the immediately preceding sentence, deemed

23

 

received) remit in same day funds to
each Lender its share, if any, of such payments received by the Administrative Agent for the
account of such Lender without any setoff, deduction or counterclaim. All interest and fees shall
be computed on the basis of the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the
last day) occurring during the period for which such interest or fee is payable over a year
comprised of 360 days. Whenever any payment to be made shall otherwise be due on a day which is
not a Business Day, such payment shall (except as otherwise required by clause (c) of the
definition of the term “Interest Period”) be made on the next succeeding Business Day and
such extension of time shall be included in computing interest and fees, if any, in connection with
such payment.

     SECTION 4.10. Sharing of Payments. If any Lender shall obtain any payment or other
recovery (whether voluntary, involuntary, by application of setoff or otherwise) on account of any
Loan (other than pursuant to the terms of Sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.5,
4.6 and 4.7) in excess of its pro rata share of payments then or
therewith obtained by all Lenders, such Lender shall purchase from the other Lenders such
participations in Loans made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share
the excess payment or other recovery ratably with each of them; provided that if all or any
portion of the excess payment or other recovery is thereafter recovered from such purchasing
Lender, the purchase shall be rescinded and each Lender which has sold a participation to the
purchasing Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the ratable extent of
such recovery together with an amount equal to such selling Lender’s ratable share (according to
the proportion of (a) the amount of such selling Lender’s required repayment to the purchasing
Lender to (b) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or
other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered.
The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to
this Section may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment
(including pursuant to Section 4.9) with respect to such participation as fully as if such
Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. If under any
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu
of a setoff to which this Section applies, such Lender shall, to the extent practicable, exercise
its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Lenders
entitled under this Section to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.

     SECTION 4.11. Setoff. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or
Prepayment Event, each Lender and each of its Affiliates shall have, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, the right to appropriate and apply to the payment of the Obligations then due and
owing to it any and all balances, credits, deposits, accounts or moneys of the Borrower then or
thereafter maintained with such Lender or such Affiliate; provided that any such
appropriation and application shall be subject to the provisions of Section 4.10. Each
Lender (for itself and on behalf of its Affiliates) agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender or its Affiliates;
provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff
and application. The rights of each Lender and its Affiliates under this Section are in addition
to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff under applicable law or otherwise)
which such Lender and its Affiliates may have.

24

 

     SECTION 4.12. Use of Proceeds. The Borrower shall apply the proceeds of each
Borrowing in accordance with the third recital; without limiting the foregoing, no proceeds of any
Loan will be used to acquire any equity security of a class which is registered pursuant to Section
12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or any “margin stock”, as defined in F.R.S. Board
Regulation U.

Subsidiary, such case or proceeding shall be consented to or acquiesced in by the Borrower
or such Subsidiary or shall result in the

38

 

entry of an order for relief or shall remain for
30 days undismissed, provided that the Borrower hereby expressly authorizes the
Administrative Agent and each Lender to appear in any court conducting any such case or
proceeding during such 30-day period to preserve, protect and defend their respective rights
under the Loan Documents; or

     (e) take any corporate action authorizing, or in furtherance of, any of the foregoing.

          SECTION 8.1.7. Ownership of Principal Subsidiaries. Except as a result of a
disposition permitted pursuant to clauses (a) or (b) of Section 7.2.7, the

ARTICLE X

THE AGENTS

     SECTION 10.1. Actions. Each Lender hereby appoints Citibank, and insofar as the
other Agents have duties under this Agreement, each other Agent, as its agent under and for
purposes of this Agreement, the Notes and each other Loan Document. Each Lender authorizes the
Administrative Agent to act on behalf of such Lender under this Agreement, the Notes and each other
Loan Document and, in the absence of other written instructions from the Required Lenders received
from time to time by the Administrative Agent (with respect to which the Administrative Agent
agrees that it will comply, except as otherwise provided in this Section or as otherwise advised by
counsel), to exercise such powers hereunder and thereunder as are specifically delegated to or
required of the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as
may be reasonably incidental thereto. Each Lender hereby indemnifies (which indemnity shall
survive any termination of this Agreement) the Administrative Agent, pro rata according to such
Lender’s Percentage, from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses
(including, without limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) that be incurred by
or asserted or awarded against, the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of
this Agreement, the Notes and any other Loan Document or any action taken or omitted by the
Administrative Agent under this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document; provided
that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such claims, damages, losses,
liabilities and expenses which have resulted from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or
willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the
Administrative Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses
(including reasonable counsel fees) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the
preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether
through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or
responsibilities under, this Agreement, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not
reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrower. In the case of any investigation, litigation or
proceeding giving rise to any such indemnified costs, this Section applies whether any such
investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or a
third party. The Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action hereunder, under
the Notes or under any other Loan Document, or to prosecute or defend any suit in respect of this
Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document, unless it is expressly required to do so under
this Agreement or is indemnified hereunder to its satisfaction. If any indemnity in favor of the

41

 

Administrative Agent shall be or become, in the Administrative Agent’s reasonable determination,
inadequate, the Administrative Agent may call for additional indemnification from the Lenders and
cease to do the acts indemnified against hereunder until such additional indemnity is given.

     SECTION 10.2. Funding Reliance, etc. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been
notified by telephone, confirmed in writing, by any Lender by 5:00 p.m., New York time, on the day
prior to the Borrowing that such Lender will not make available the amount which would constitute
its Percentage of such Borrowing on the date specified therefor, the Administrative Agent may
assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent and, in reliance
upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If and to the extent
that such Lender shall not have made such amount available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender
and the Borrower severally agree to repay the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such
corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date the Administrative
Agent made such amount available to the Borrower to the date such amount is repaid to the
Administrative Agent, at the interest rate applicable at the time to Loans comprising the
Borrowing.

     SECTION 10.3. Exculpation. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its
directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable to any Lender for any action taken or
omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or in connection
herewith or therewith, except for its own willful misconduct or gross negligence. Without
limitation of the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent (i) may treat the payee of
any Note a the holder thereof until the Administrative Agent receives and accepts a Lender
Assignment Agreement entered into by the Lender that is the payee of such Note, as assignor, and an
Assignee Lender as provided in Section 11.11.1; (ii) may consult with legal counsel (including
counsel for the Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and
shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it and in
accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (iii) makes no warranty or
representation to any Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender for any statements,
warranties or representations (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with this
Agreement; (iv) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance,
observance or satisfaction of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement on the
part of the Borrower or the existence at any time of any Default or Prepayment Event or to inspect
the property (including the books and records) of the Borrower; (v) shall not be responsible to any
Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value
of this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; and (vi) shall
incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement by action upon any notice, consent,
certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telecopier) believed by it to be
genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties.

     SECTION 10.4. Successor. Any Agent may resign as such at any time upon at least 30
days’ prior notice to the Borrower and all Lenders, provided that any such resignation
shall not become effective until a successor Agent for such resigning Agent has been appointed as
provided in this Section 10.4 and such successor Agent has accepted such appointment
(provided that no successor Agent shall be appointed for any Agent, other than the
Administrative Agent, if after giving effect to such Agent’s resignation there would still be two
Agents). If any Agent at

42

 

any time shall resign, the Required Lenders shall, subject to the
immediately preceding proviso and subject to the consent of the Borrower (such consent not
to be unreasonably withheld), appoint another Lender as a successor to such Agent which shall
thereupon become such Agent’s successor hereunder (provided that, in the case of a
resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders shall, subject to the consent of the
Borrower unless an Event or Default or a Prepayment Event shall have occurred and be continuing
(such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) offer to each of the other Agents in turn, in the
order of their respective Commitments (or, if the Commitments have been terminated, the outstanding
principal amount of their respective Loans), the right to become successor Administrative Agent).
If no successor Agent for any resigning Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders,
and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the resigning Agent’s giving notice
of resignation, then the resigning Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent,
which shall be one of the Lenders or, in the case of a resigning Administrative Agent, a commercial
banking institution having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000 (or the
equivalent in other currencies), subject, in each case, to the consent of the Borrower (such
consent not to be unreasonably withheld). Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative
Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall be
entitled to receive from the resigning Administrative Agent such documents of transfer and
assignment as such successor Administrative Agent may reasonably request, and shall thereupon
succeed to and become vested with all rights, powers, privileges and duties of the resigning
Administrative Agent, and the resigning Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties
and obligations under this Agreement. After any resigning Administrative Agent’s resignation
hereunder as the Administrative Agent, the provisions of:

     (a) this Article X shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be
taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent under this Agreement; and

     (b) Section 11.3 and Section 11.4 shall continue to inure to its
benefit.

If a Lender acting as an Agent assigns its Loans to one of its Affiliates, such Agent may, subject
to the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) assign its rights and
obligations as Agent to such Affiliate.

     SECTION 10.5. Loans by the Agents. Each Agent shall have the same rights and powers
with respect to (x) the Loans made by it or any of its Affiliates, and (y) the Note(s) held by it
or any of its Affiliates as any other Lender and may exercise the same as if it were not an Agent.
Each Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any
kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Borrower as if such Agent
were not an Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. No Agent
shall have any duty to disclose information obtained or received by it or any of its Affiliates
relating to the Borrower or its Subsidiaries to the extent such information was obtained or
received in any capacity other than as an Agent.

     SECTION 10.6. Credit Decisions. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently
of the Administrative Agent, each other Agent and each other Lender, and based on such Lender’s
review of the financial information of the Borrower, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents (the
terms and provisions of which being satisfactory to such Lender) and such other

43

 

documents,
information and investigations as such Lender has deemed appropriate, made its own credit decision
to extend its Commitment. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently of the
Administrative Agent, each other Agent and each other Lender, and based on such other documents,
information and investigations as it shall deem appropriate at any time, continue to make its own
credit decisions as to exercising or not exercising from time to time any rights and privileges
available to it under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

     SECTION 10.7. Copies, etc. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to each
Lender of each notice or request required or permitted to be given to the Administrative Agent by
the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (unless concurrently delivered to the Lenders
by the Borrower). The Administrative Agent will distribute to each Lender each document or
instrument received for its account and copies of all other communications received by the
Administrative Agent from the Borrower for distribution to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent
in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

     SECTION 10.8. Agency Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for
its own account an annual agency fee in an amount, and at such times, heretofore agreed to in
writing between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

     SECTION 10.9. Other Agents. Each Lender hereby acknowledges that neither the
syndication agent nor any other Lender designated as any “Agent” (other than the Administrative
Agent) on the signature pages or cover page hereof has any liability hereunder other than in its
capacity as a Lender.

ARTICLE XI

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

     SECTION 11.1. Waivers, Amendments, etc. The provisions of this Agreement may from
time to time be amended, modified or waived, if such amendment, modification or waiver is in
writing and consented to by the Borrower and the Required Lenders; provided that no such
amendment, modification or waiver which would:

     (a) modify any requirement hereunder that any particular action be taken by all the
Lenders or by the Required Lenders shall be effective unless consented to by each Lender;

     (b) modify this Section 11.1 or change the definition of “Required Lenders”
shall be made without the consent of each Lender;

     (c) increase the Commitment of any Lender, reduce any fees described in Article
III payable to any Lender or extend any date fixed for payment owing to any Lender shall
be made without the consent of such Lender;

     (d) extend the due date for, or reduce the amount of, any scheduled repayment or
prepayment of principal of or interest on any Loan (or reduce the principal amount of or

     (e) affect adversely the interests, rights or obligations of the Administrative Agent
in its capacity as such shall be made without consent of the Administrative Agent.

No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any power
or right under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor
shall any single or partial exercise of any such power or right preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power or right. No notice to or demand on the
Borrower in any case shall entitle it to any notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.
No waiver or approval by the Administrative Agent or any Lender under this Agreement or any other
Loan Document shall, except as may be otherwise stated in such waiver or approval, be applicable to
subsequent transactions. No waiver or approval hereunder shall require any similar or dissimilar
waiver or approval thereafter to be granted hereunder.

     SECTION 11.2. Notices. (a) All notices and other communications provided to any
party hereto under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be in writing or by facsimile
and addressed, delivered or transmitted to such party at its address, or facsimile number set forth
below its signature hereto or set forth in the Lender Assignment Agreement or at such other
address, or facsimile number as may be designated by such party in a notice to the other parties;
provided that notices, information, documents and other materials that the Borrower is required to
deliver hereunder may be delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders as specified in
Section 11.2(b). Any notice, if mailed and properly addressed with postage prepaid or if properly
addressed and sent by pre-paid courier service, shall be deemed given when received.

     (b) So long as Citibank is the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may provide to the
Administrative Agent all information, documents and other materials that it furnishes to the
Administrative Agent hereunder or any other Loan Document (and any guaranties, security agreements
and other agreements relating thereto), including, without limitation, all notices, requests,
financial statements, financial and other reports, certificates and other materials, but excluding
any such communication that (i) relates to a request for a new, or a conversion of an existing
Borrowing or other extension of credit (including any election of an interest rate or interest
period relating thereto), (ii) relates to the payment of any principal or other amount due
hereunder or any other Loan Document prior to the scheduled date therefor, (iii) provides notice of
any Default or Event of Default or (iv) is required to be delivered to satisfy any condition
precedent to the effectiveness of the Agreement and/or any Borrowing or other extension of credit
hereunder (all such non-excluded communications being referred to herein collectively as
“Communications”), by transmitting the Communications in an electronic/soft medium in a
format acceptable to the Administrative Agent to oploanswebadmin@ssmb.com; provided that
any Communication requested pursuant to Section 7.1.1(h) shall be in a format acceptable to
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

          (1) The Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may make such items included in the
Communications as the Borrower may specifically agree available to the Lenders by posting such
notices, at the option of the Borrower, on Intralinks or e-Disclosure, the Administrative Agent’s
internet delivery system that is part of SSB Direct, Global Fixed Income’s primary web portal (the
“Platform”). Although the primary web portal is secured with a dual firewall and a User
ID/Password Authorization System and the Platform is secured

45

 

through a single user per deal
authorization method whereby each user may access the Platform only on a deal-by-deal basis, the
Borrower acknowledges that (i) the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not
necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such
distribution, (ii) the Platform is provided “as is” and “as available” and (iii) neither the
Administrative Agent nor any of its Affiliates warrants the accuracy, adequacy or completeness of
the Communications or the Platform and each expressly disclaims liability for errors or omissions
in the Communications or the Platform. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory,
including, without limitation, any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose,
non-infringement of third party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by
the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in connection with the Platform.

          (2) The Administrative Agent agrees that the receipt of Communications by the Administrative
Agent at its e-mail address set forth above shall constitute effective delivery of such
Communications to the Administrative Agent for purposes hereunder and any other Loan Document (and
any guaranties, security agreements and other agreements relating thereto).

     (c) Each Lender agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) (a
“Notice”) specifying that any Communications have been posted to the Platform shall
constitute effective delivery of such Communications to such Lender for purposes of this Agreement.
Each Lender agrees (i) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic
communication) of such Lender’s e-mail address to which a Notice may be sent by electronic
transmission on or before the date such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to
time thereafter to ensure that the Administrative Agent has on record an effective e-mail address
for such Lender) and (ii) that any Notice may be sent to such e-mail address.

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

     SECTION 11.3. Payment of Costs and Expenses. The Borrower agrees to pay on demand
all reasonable expenses of the Administrative Agent (including the reasonable fees and
out-of-pocket expenses of counsel to the Administrative Agent and of local counsel, if any, who may
be retained by counsel to the Administrative Agent) in connection with the preparation, execution
and delivery of, and any amendments, waivers, consents, supplements or other modifications to, this
Agreement or any other Loan Document. The Borrower further agrees to pay, and to save the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders harmless from all liability for, any stamp, recording,
documentary or other similar taxes which may be payable in connection with the execution or
delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or the borrowings hereunder, or the
issuance of the Notes or any other Loan Documents. The Borrower also agrees to reimburse the
Administrative Agent and each Lender upon demand for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
(including reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses) incurred by the Administrative Agent or
such Lender in connection with (x) the negotiation of any restructuring or “work-out”, whether or
not consummated, of any Obligations and (y) the enforcement of any Obligations.

46

 

     SECTION 11.4. Indemnification. In consideration of the execution and delivery of
this Agreement by each Lender and the extension of the Commitments, the Borrower hereby indemnifies
and holds harmless the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each of their respective Affiliates
and their respective officers, advisors, directors and employees (collectively, the
“Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities
and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel), joint
or several, that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party
(including, without limitation, in connection with any investigation, litigation or proceeding or
the preparation of a defense in connection therewith), in each case arising out of or in connection
with or by reason of this Agreement or the Notes or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby
or any actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Loans (collectively, the “Indemnified
Liabilities”), except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is found in
a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily
from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. In the case of an
investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this paragraph applies,
such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is
brought by the Borrower, any of its directors, security holders or creditors, an Indemnified Party
or any other person or an Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto. Each Indemnified Party
shall (a) furnish the Borrower with prompt notice of any action, suit or other claim covered by
this Section 11.4, (b) not agree to any settlement or compromise of any such action, suit
or claim without the Borrower’s prior consent, (c) shall cooperate fully in the Borrower’s defense
of any such action, suit or other claim (provided, that the Borrower shall reimburse such
Indemnified Party for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred pursuant hereto) and (d) at
the Borrower’s request, permit the Borrower to assume control of the defense of any such claim,
other than regulatory, supervisory or similar investigations, provided that (i) the Borrower
acknowledges in writing its obligations to indemnify the Indemnified Party in accordance with the
terms herein in connection with such claims, (ii) the Borrower shall keep the Indemnified Party
fully informed with respect to the conduct of the defense of such claim, (iii) the Borrower shall
consult in good faith with the Indemnified Party (from time to time and before taking any material
decision) about the conduct of the defense of such claim, (iv) the Borrower shall conduct the
defense of such claim properly and diligently taking into account its own interests and those of
the Indemnified Party, (v) the Borrower shall employ counsel reasonably acceptable to the
Indemnified Party and at the Borrower’s expense, and (vi) the Borrower shall not enter into a
settlement with respect to such claim unless either (A) such settlement involves only the payment
of a monetary sum, does not include any performance by or an admission of liability or
responsibility on the part of the Indemnified Party, and contains a provision unconditionally
releasing the Indemnified Party and each other indemnified party from, and holding all such persons
harmless, against, all liability in respect of claims by any releasing party or (B) the Indemnified
Party provides written consent to such settlement (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or
delayed). Notwithstanding the Borrower’s election to assume the defense of such action, the
Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense
of such action and the Borrower shall bear the fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if
(1) the use of counsel chosen by the Borrower to represent the Indemnified Party would present such
counsel with an actual or potential conflict of interest, (2) the actual or potential defendants
in, or targets of, any such action include both the Borrower and the Indemnified Party, and the
Indemnified

47

 

Party shall have concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it which are
different from or additional to those available to the Borrower and determined that it is necessary
to employ separate counsel in order to pursue such defenses (in which case the Borrower shall not
have the right to assume the defense of such action on the Indemnified Party’s behalf), (3) the
Borrower shall not have employed counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party to
represent the Indemnified Party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such
action, or (4) the Borrower authorizes the Indemnified Party to employ separate counsel at the
Borrower’s expense. The Borrower acknowledges that none of the Indemnified Parties shall have any
liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract, tort or otherwise) to the Borrower or any of
its security holders or creditors for or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby,
except to the extent such liability is determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of
competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or
willful misconduct. In no event, however, shall any Indemnified Party be liable on any theory of
liability for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (including, without
limitation, any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings). If and to the extent that the
foregoing undertaking may be unenforceable for any reason, the Borrower hereby agrees to make the
maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which
is permissible under applicable law.

     SECTION 11.5. Survival. The obligations of the Borrower under Sections 4.3,
4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 4.7, 11.3 and 11.4, and the
obligations of the Lenders under Section 10.1, shall in each case survive any termination
of this Agreement, the payment in full of all Obligations and the termination of all Commitments.
The representations and warranties made by the Borrower in this Agreement shall survive the
execution and delivery of this Agreement.

     SECTION 11.6. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement or the Notes which is
prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such provision and such jurisdiction,
be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the
remaining provisions of this Agreement or such Loan Document or affecting the validity or
enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

     SECTION 11.7. Headings. The various headings of this Agreement are inserted for
convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement or any
provisions hereof.

     SECTION 11.8. Execution in Counterparts, Effectiveness, etc. This Agreement may be
executed by the parties hereto in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an
original and all of which shall constitute together but one and the same agreement. This Agreement
shall become effective when counterparts hereof executed on behalf of the Borrower and each Lender
(or notice thereof satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower) shall have been
received by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (or, in the case of any Lender, receipt of
signature pages transmitted by facsimile) and notice thereof shall have been given by the
Administrative Agent to the Borrower and each Lender.

     SECTION 11.9. Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE NOTES SHALL EACH BE DEEMED TO BE
A CONTRACT MADE UNDER, AND SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

48

 

     SECTION 11.10. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and
shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns;
provided that:

     (a) except to the extent permitted under Section 7.2.6, the Borrower may not
assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of
the Administrative Agent and all Lenders; and

     (b) the rights of sale, assignment and transfer of the Lenders are subject to
Section 11.11.

     SECTION 11.11. Sale and Transfer of Loans and Note; Participations in Loans and Note.
Each Lender may assign, or sell participations in, its Loans and Commitment to one or more other
Persons in accordance with this Section 11.11.

          SECTION 11.11.1. Assignments. Any Lender,

          (i) with the written consents of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (which consents
shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld and which consent, in the case of the Borrower, shall
be deemed to have been given in the absence of a written notice delivered by the Borrower to the
Administrative Agent, on or before the fifth Business Day after receipt by the Borrower of such
Lender’s request for consent, stating, in reasonable detail, the reasons why the Borrower proposes
to withhold such consent) may at any time assign and delegate to one or more commercial banks or
other financial institutions;

          (ii) with notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, but without the consent of the
Borrower or the Administrative Agent, may assign and delegate (A) to any Lender, (B) to any of its
Affiliates or (C) following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default or a
Prepayment Event; and

          (iii) may (without notice to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and
without payment of any fee) assign and pledge all or any portion of its Loans and Note to any
Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the F.R.S. Board and any
Operating Circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank;

(each Person described in either of the foregoing clauses as being the Person to whom such
assignment and delegation is to be made, being hereinafter referred to as an “Assignee
Lender”), all or any fraction of such Lender’s total Loans and Commitment (which assignment and
delegation shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all the assigning Lender’s
Loans and Commitment) in a minimum aggregate amount of €25,000,000 (or the Equivalent thereof in
Dollars) (or, if less, all of such Lender’s Loans and Commitment); provided that the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to continue to deal solely and directly
with such Lender in connection with the interests so assigned and delegated to an Assignee Lender
until:

  (a) written notice of such assignment and delegation, together with payment
instructions, addresses and related information with respect to such Assignee Lender,

49

 

shall
have been given to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Lender and such
Assignee Lender;

     (b) Such Assignee Lender shall have executed and delivered to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent a Lender Assignment Agreement, accepted by the Administrative Agent;
and

     (c) the processing fees described below shall have been paid.

From and after the date that the Administrative Agent accepts such Lender Assignment Agreement, (x)
the Assignee Lender thereunder shall be deemed automatically to have become a party hereto and to
the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned and delegated to such Assignee
Lender in connection with such Lender Assignment Agreement, shall have the rights and obligations
of a Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and (y) the assignor Lender, to the
extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned and delegated by it, shall be
released from its obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, other than any
obligations arising prior to the effective date of such assignment. In no event shall the Borrower
be required to pay to any Assignee Lender at the time of the relevant assignment any amount under
Sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6 and 4.7 that is greater than
the amount which it would have been required to pay had no such assignment been made. Within five
Business Days after its receipt of notice that the Administrative Agent has received an executed
Lender Assignment Agreement, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent
(for delivery to the relevant Assignee Lender) a new Note evidencing such Assignee Lender’s
assigned Loans and Commitment and, if the assignor Lender has retained Loans and a Commitment
hereunder, a replacement Note in the principal amount of the Loans and Commitment retained by the
assignor Lender hereunder (such Note to be in exchange for, but not in payment of, that Note then
held by such assignor Lender). Each such Note shall be dated the date of the predecessor Note.
The assignor Lender shall mark the predecessor Note “exchanged” and deliver it to the Borrower
concurrently with the delivery by the Borrower of the new Note(s). Such assignor Lender or such
Assignee Lender must also pay a processing fee to the Administrative Agent upon delivery of any
Lender Assignment Agreement in the amount of $2,000 (and shall also reimburse the Administrative
Agent for any reasonable out-of-pocket costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses,
incurred in connection with the assignment).

          SECTION 11.11.2. Participations. Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more
commercial banks or other financial institutions (each of such commercial banks and other financial
institutions being herein called a “Participant”) participating interests in any of its
Loans, its Commitment, or other interests of such Lender hereunder; provided that:

     (a) no participation contemplated in this Section 11.11 shall relieve such
Lender from its Commitment or its other obligations hereunder;

     (b) such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance of its Commitment
and such other obligations;

50

 

     (c) the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and
directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this
Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents;

     (d) no Participant, unless such Participant is an Affiliate of such Lender, shall be
entitled to require such Lender to take or refrain from taking any action hereunder or under
any other Loan Document, except that such Lender may agree with any Participant that such
Lender will not, without such Participant’s consent, take any actions of the type described
in clause (b) or (c) of Section 11.1; and

     (e) the Borrower shall not be required to pay any amount under Sections 4.3,
4.4, 4.5, 4.6 and 4.7 that is greater than the amount which
it would have been required to pay had no participating interest been sold.

The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that each Participant, for purposes of Sections 4.3,
4.4, 4.5, 4.6 and clause (h) of 7.1.1, shall be considered
a Lender.

     SECTION 11.12. Other Transactions. Nothing contained herein shall preclude the
Administrative Agent or any Lender from engaging in any transaction, in addition to those
contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan Document, with the Borrower or any of its
Affiliates in which the Borrower or such Affiliate is not restricted hereby from engaging with any
other Person.

     SECTION 11.13. Forum Selection and Consent to Jurisdiction. THE BORROWER HEREBY
EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE SUPREME COURT OF THE
STATE OF NEW YORK FOR THE COUNTY OF NEW YORK AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE
SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK FOR THE PURPOSE OF ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF,
UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND IRREVOCABLY AGREES, TO
THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, TO BE BOUND BY ANY FINAL JUDGMENT RENDERED THEREBY IN
CONNECTION WITH SUCH LITIGATION. THE BORROWER FURTHER IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF
PROCESS BY REGISTERED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, OR BY PERSONAL SERVICE WITHIN OR WITHOUT THE STATE OF
NEW YORK. THE BORROWER HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY
LAW, ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY HAVE OR HEREAFTER MAY HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUCH
LITIGATION BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT REFERRED TO ABOVE AND ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH LITIGATION HAS
BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT ANY
PARTY MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER
LOAN DOCUMENT IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION. TO THE EXTENT THAT THE BORROWER HAS OR HEREAFTER
MAY ACQUIRE ANY IMMUNITY FROM JURISDICTION OF ANY COURT OF FROM ANY LEGAL PROCESS (WHETHER THROUGH
SERVICE OR NOTICE,

51

 

ATTACHMENT PRIOR TO JUDGMENT, ATTACHMENT IN AID OF EXECUTION OR OTHERWISE) WITH
RESPECT TO ITSELF OR ITS PROPERTY, THE BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT
PERMITTED BY LAW, SUCH IMMUNITY IN RESPECT OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER
LOAN DOCUMENTS.

     SECTION 11.14. Process Agent. If at any time the Borrower ceases to have a place of
business in the United States, the Borrower shall appoint an agent for service of process
(reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) located in New York City and shall furnish to
the Administrative Agent evidence that such agent shall have accepted such appointment for a period
of time ending no earlier than one year after the Stated Maturity Date.

     SECTION 11.15. Judgment. (a) If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court
it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in Euros or Dollars into another currency, the
parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of
exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the
Administrative Agent could purchase Euros or Dollars, as the case may be, with such other currency
at Citibank’s principal office in London at 11:00 A.M. (London time) on the second Business Day
preceding that on which final judgment is given.

     (b) The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any sum due from it in any currency (the
“Primary Currency”) to any Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder shall,
notwithstanding any judgment in any other currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the
Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be), of
any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency, such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as
the case may be) may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the applicable Primary
Currency with such other currency; if the amount of the applicable Primary Currency so purchased is
less than such sum due to such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) in the
applicable Primary Currency, the Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any
such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) against
such loss, and if the amount of the applicable Primary Currency so purchased exceeds such sum due
to any Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) in the applicable Primary Currency,
such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) agrees to remit to the Borrower such
excess.

52

 

     SECTION 11.16. Waiver of Jury Trial. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE LENDERS AND THE
BORROWER HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHTS THEY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL
BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER, OR IN CONNECTION WITH,
THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT
IT HAS RECEIVED FULL AND SUFFICIENT CONSIDERATION FOR THIS PROVISION (AND EACH OTHER PROVISION OF
EACH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT) AND THAT THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR EACH OTHER PARTY
ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND EACH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed by their
respective officers thereunto duly authorized as of the day and year first above written.

[Form of Opinion of Counsel to the Borrower]

                    , 2006

To the Lenders party to the

  Credit Agreement referred to

  below and to Citicorp North America, Inc.,

  as Administrative Agent

Gentlemen:

     I am the General Counsel of Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. (“RCCL”) and have acted in that
capacity in connection with the Credit Agreement dated as of                     , 2006 (the “Credit
Agreement”) between RCCL, the Lenders referred to therein and Citicorp North America, Inc., as
Administrative Agent.

     In connection with the opinions expressed herein, I have examined originals or copies
certified or otherwise identified to my satisfaction of such agreements, documents, certificates,
and other statements of such governmental officials and corporate officers and other
representatives of the corporations referred to herein and other papers as I have deemed relevant
and necessary as a basis for such opinions. In making such examinations I have assumed the
genuineness of all signatures and the conformity with the originals of all documents submitted to
me as copies. As to facts material to my opinion, I have relied on the representations, warranties
and statements made in or pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the other documents referred to
herein and upon certificates of public officials and certificates and other written or oral
statements of officers and other representatives of the corporations named herein.

     Unless otherwise defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings
assigned to them in the Credit Agreement.

     Based on the foregoing and subject to the qualifications and exceptions expressed herein, it
is my opinion that:

     (i) no registration or other official action in the State of Florida is required in
order to render the Credit Agreement or the Notes enforceable against RCCL;

     (ii) to the extent that their respective incomes are excludable from United States
Income Taxation pursuant to Section 883 of the Internal Revenue Code, none of RCCL and its
Principal Subsidiaries is, or under current law will be, taxable on its income under the
Revenue Code of the State of Florida. In addition, RCCL is not required, as a matter of the
law of the State of Florida, to withhold income tax with respect to any interest or
principal payments it is or may be required to make under the Credit Agreement or the Notes;

D-1-1 

 

     (iii) To the best of my knowledge, the execution, delivery and performance by RCCL of
the Credit Agreement and the Notes, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated
thereby do not contravene any contractual or legal restriction contained in any indentures,
loan or credit agreements, leases, guarantees, mortgages, security agreements, bonds, notes
and other agreements or instruments, or any orders, writs, judgments, awards, injunctions
and decrees, that affect or purport to affect RCCL’s right to borrow money or RCCL’s
obligations under the Credit Agreement or any of the Notes; and

     (iv) To the best of my knowledge, there are no pending or overtly threatened actions or
proceedings against RCCL or any of its Subsidiaries before any court, governmental agency or
arbitrator that purport to affect the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability
of the Credit Agreement or any of the Notes or the consummation of the transactions
contemplated thereby or that are likely to have a materially adverse effect upon the
financial condition or operations of RCCL or any of its Subsidiaries.

The opinions expressed above are subject to the following further qualifications: (i) the effect on
the enforceability of the Credit Agreement or any of the Notes or insolvency, bankruptcy,
moratorium, or reorganization laws or other similar laws affecting generally the enforcement of
creditors’ rights, (ii) general equity principles, (iii) the possibility that certain provisions of
the agreements may not be specifically enforceable, (iv) no opinion is expressed herein as to the
choice of law provisions contained in the Credit Agreement or any of the Notes, (v) no opinion is
expressed herein as to the necessity of any of the Lenders to be qualified to do business in the
State of Florida or to make any filings in connection therewith and (vi) no opinion is expressed
herein as to laws other than the laws of the State of Florida.

     This opinion is solely for the benefit of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and is not
to be relied on by any other person.

Very truly yours,

D-1-2 

 

EXHIBIT D-2

[Form of Opinion of Liberian and New York Counsel to the Borrower]

                    , 2006

To the Lenders party to the

  Credit Agreement referred to

  below and to Citicorp North America, Inc.,

  as Administrative Agent

Dear Sirs:

We have acted as legal counsel on matters of Liberian law and New York law to Royal Caribbean
Cruises Ltd., a Liberian corporation (the “Borrower”), in connection with (a) a Credit
Agreement dated as of                     , 2006 (the “Credit Agreement”) and made between (1) the
Borrower, (2) the Lenders (as defined therein) as several lenders, and (3) Citicorp North America,
Inc. (the “Administrative Agent”) in respect of a credit facility in the maximum aggregate
amount of €750,000,000 (or the equivalent thereof in U.S. dollars), and (b) the Notes referred to
in the Credit Agreement (collectively, together with the Credit Agreement, the
“Documents”). Terms defined in the Credit Agreement shall have the same meaning when used
herein.

With reference to the Documents you have asked for our opinion on the matters set forth below. In
rendering this opinion we have examined executed copies of the Documents. We have also examined
originals or photostatic copies or certified copies of all such agreements and other instruments,
certificates by public officials and certificates of officers of the Borrower as are relevant and
necessary and relevant corporate authorities of the Borrower. We have assumed with your approval,
the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals
and the conformity with the original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies, the
power, authority and legal right of the parties to the Documents other than the Borrower to enter
into and perform their respective obligations under each of the Documents, and the due
authorization of the execution of the Documents by all parties thereto other than the Borrower.

As to questions of fact material to this opinion, we have, when relevant facts were not
independently established, relied upon certificates of public officials and of officers or
representatives of the Borrower.

We are attorneys admitted to practice in the State of New York and do not purport to be experts in
the laws of any other jurisdiction. Insofar as our opinion relates to the law of the Republic of
Liberia, we have relied on opinions of counsel in Liberia rendered in transactions which we
consider to afford a satisfactory basis for such opinion, and upon our independent examinations of
the Liberian Corporation Act of 1948 (Chapter 1 of Title 4 of the Liberian Code of Laws of 1956,
effective March 1, 1958 as amended to July, 1973), the Liberian Business Corporation Act of 1976
(Title 5 of the Liberian Code of Laws Revised of 1976, effective January 3, 1977 as

D-2-1 

 

amended) (the
“Business Corporation Act”), the Liberian Maritime Law (Title 21 of the Liberian Code of
Laws of 1956 as amended), and the Revenue Code of Liberia (2000), the regulations thereunder and an
opinion dated December 23, 2004 addressed by the Minister of Justice and Attorney General of the
Republic of Liberia to the LISCR Trust Company, made available to us by Liberian Corporation
Services, Inc. and the Liberian International Ship & Corporate Registry, LLC, and our knowledge and
interpretation of analogous laws in the United States. In rendering our opinion as to the valid
existence in good standing of the Borrower, we have relied on a Certificate of Good Standing issued
by order of the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Liberia on November 1, 2006.

This opinion is limited to the law of the Republic of Liberia and the law of the State of New York.
We express no opinion as to the laws of any other jurisdiction.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing and having regard to the legal considerations which we deem
relevant, we are of the opinion that:

	1.	 	The Borrower is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing under the Business
Corporation Act and in good standing under the law of the Republic of Liberia;

	2.	 	The Borrower has full right, power and authority to enter into, execute and deliver the
Documents and to perform each and all of its obligations under the Documents;

	3.	 	Each of the Documents has been executed and delivered by a duly authorized signatory of the
Borrower and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrower enforceable
against the Borrower in accordance with its terms;

	4.	 	Neither the execution of, nor the performance of its obligations under, any of the Documents
by the Borrower will contravene any existing applicable law, regulation or restriction of the
Republic of Liberia or the State of New York and no consent or approval of, or exemption by,
any Liberian or New York governmental or public body or authority is required in connection
with the execution and delivery by the Borrower of the Documents;

	5.	 	Neither the execution nor delivery of any of the Documents, nor the transactions contemplated
therein, nor compliance with the terms and conditions thereof, will contravene any provisions
of Liberian or New York law or regulation or violate any provisions of the Articles of
Incorporation (inclusive of any articles of amendment thereto) or the Bylaws of the Borrower;

	6.	 	It is not necessary to file, record or register any of the Documents or any instrument
relating thereto or effect any other official action in any public office or elsewhere in the
Republic of Liberia or the State of New York to render any such document enforceable against
the Borrower;

	7.	 	Assuming that no more than 25% of the total combined voting power and no more than 25% of the
total value of the outstanding equity stock of the Borrower is beneficially

D-2-2 

 

	 	 	owned, directly or
indirectly, by persons resident in the Republic of Liberia, and that the Borrower does
not, either directly or through agents acting on its behalf, engage in the Republic of
Liberia in the pursuit of gain or profit with a degree of continuity or regularity, no
Liberian withholding tax is required to be deducted from any payment of principal, interest or
otherwise to be made by the Borrower pursuant to the provisions of the Documents;

	8.	 	Assuming none of the Documents has been executed in the Republic of Liberia, no stamp or
registration or similar taxes or charges are payable in the Republic of Liberia in respect of
any of the Documents or the enforcement thereof in the courts of the Republic of Liberia other
than (i) customary court fees payable in litigation in the courts of the Republic of Liberia
and (ii) nominal documentary stamp taxes if the Documents are ever submitted to a Liberian
court;

	9.	 	Assuming that the shares of the Borrower and the Principal Subsidiaries are not owned,
directly or indirectly, by the Republic of Liberia or any other sovereign under Liberian law,
neither the Borrower nor any of the Principal Subsidiaries nor the property or assets of any
of them (including in the case of the Principal Subsidiaries any of the Vessels and their
earnings and insurances and requisition compensation) is immune from the institution of legal
proceedings or the obtaining or execution of a judgment in the Republic of Liberia; and

	10.	 	Under Liberian law the choice by the Borrower of the law of the State of New York to govern
the Credit Agreement and the Notes is a valid choice of law and the irrevocable submission
thereunder by the Borrower to the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York
for the County of New York and for the United States District Court for the Southern District
of New York is a valid submission to such courts. In the event a judgment of such courts
against the Borrower was obtained after service of process in the manner specified in the
Credit Agreement, the same would be enforced by the courts of the Republic of Liberia without
further review on the merits unless: (i) the judgment was obtained by fraud; or (ii) the
judgment was given in a manner contrary to natural justice or the judgment was given in a
manner contrary to the public policy of the Republic of Liberia; or (iii) the judgment was in
a case in which the defendant did not appear or in which an authorized person did not appear
in such defendant’s behalf; or (iv) the judgment was not for a specific ascertained sum of
money; or (v) the judgment was not final and conclusive in accordance with the laws of the
jurisdiction in which the judgment was obtained.

We qualify our opinion to the extent that (i) the enforceability of the rights and remedies
provided for in the Documents (a) may be limited by bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency,
moratorium and other similar laws affecting generally the enforcement of creditors’ rights and (b)
is subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered
in a proceeding in equity or at law), including application by a court of competent jurisdiction of
principles of good faith, fair dealing, commercial reasonableness, materiality, unconscionability
and conflict with public policy or similar principles, and (ii) while there is nothing in the law
of the Republic of Liberia that prohibits a Liberian corporation from submitting to the
jurisdiction

D-2-3 

 

of a forum other than the Republic of Liberia, the enforceability of such submission
to jurisdiction provisions is not dependent upon Liberian law and such provisions may not be
enforceable under the law of a particular jurisdiction.

A copy of this opinion letter may be delivered by any of you to any Person that becomes a Lender in
accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement. Any such Lender may rely on the opinion
expressed above as if this opinion letter were addressed and delivered to such Lender on the date
hereof.

This opinion letter speaks only as of the date hereof. We expressly disclaim any responsibility to
advise you or any other Lender who is permitted to rely on the opinion expressed herein as
specified in the next preceding paragraph of any development or circumstance of any kind including
any change of law or fact that may occur after the date of this opinion letter even though such

matter set forth in or relating to this opinion letter. Accordingly, any Lender relying on this
opinion letter at any time should seek advice of its counsel as to the proper application of this

EXHIBIT F

                    , 2006

To the Initial Lenders party to the Credit

Agreement referred to below and to

Citicorp North America, Inc., as Administrative Agent

Royal Caribbean Cruises, Ltd.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

          We have acted as counsel to Citicorp North America, Inc., as Administrative Agent (the
“Agent”), in connection with the Credit Agreement, dated as of                     , 2006 (the
“Credit Agreement”), among Royal Caribbean Cruises, Ltd., a Liberian corporation (the
“Borrower”), and each of you. Unless otherwise defined herein, terms defined in the Credit
Agreement are used herein as therein defined.

          In that connection, we have reviewed originals or copies of the following documents:

          (a) The Credit Agreement.

          (b) The Notes executed by the Borrower and delivered on the date hereof.

          The documents described in the foregoing clauses (a) and (b) are collectively referred to
herein as the “Opinion Documents.”

          We have also reviewed originals or copies of such other agreements and documents as we have
deemed necessary as a basis for the opinion expressed below.

          In our review of the Opinion Documents and other documents, we have assumed:

	 	(A)	 	The genuineness of all signatures.
	 
	 	(B)	 	The authenticity of the originals of the documents submitted to us.
	 
	 	(C)	 	The conformity to authentic originals of any
documents submitted to us as copies.
	 
	 	(D)	 	As to matters of fact, the truthfulness of the
representations made in the Credit Agreement.

F-1 

 

	 	(E)	 	That each of the Opinion Documents is the
legal, valid and binding obligation of each party thereto, other than
the Borrower, enforceable against each such party in accordance with
its terms.
	 
	 	(F)	 	That:

     (1) The Borrower is an entity duly organized and validly existing under
the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization.

     (2) The Borrower has full power to execute, deliver and perform, and
has duly executed and delivered, the Opinion Documents.

     (3) The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of the
Opinion Documents have been duly authorized by all necessary action
(corporate or otherwise) and do not:

     (a) contravene its certificate or articles of incorporation,
by-laws or other organizational documents;

     (b) except with respect to Generally Applicable Law, violate any
law, rule or regulation applicable to it; or

     (c) result in any conflict with or breach of any agreement or
document binding on it of which any addressee hereof has knowledge,
has received notice or has reason to know.

     (4) Except with respect to Generally Applicable Law, no authorization,
approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any
governmental authority or regulatory body or (to the extent the same is
required under any agreement or document binding on it of which an addressee
hereof has knowledge, has received notice or has reason to know) any other
third party is required for the due execution, delivery or performance by
the Borrower of any Opinion Document or, if any such authorization,
approval, action, notice or filing is required, it has been duly obtained,
taken, given or made and is in full force and effect.

          We have not independently established the validity of the foregoing assumptions.

          “Generally Applicable Law” means the federal law of the United States of America, and
the law of the State of New York (including the rules or regulations promulgated thereunder or
pursuant thereto), that a New York lawyer exercising customary professional diligence would
reasonably be expected to recognize as being applicable to the Borrower, the Opinion Documents or
the transactions governed by the Opinion Documents. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing definition of Generally Applicable Law, the term “Generally Applicable Law” does not
include any law, rule or regulation that is applicable to the Borrower, the Opinion Documents or
such transactions solely because such law, rule or regulation is part of a regulatory regime
applicable to any party to any of the Opinion Documents or any of its affiliates due to the
specific assets or business of such party or such affiliate.

F-2 

 

          Based upon the foregoing and upon such other investigation as we have deemed necessary and
subject to the qualifications set forth below, we are of the opinion that each Opinion Document is
the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in
accordance with its terms.

          Our opinion expressed above is subject to the following qualifications:

     (a) Our opinion is subject to (i) the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally (including
without limitation all laws relating to fraudulent transfers).

     (b) Our opinion is subject to the effect of general principles of equity, including
without limitation concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing
(regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

     (c) We express no opinion with respect to the enforceability of indemnification
provisions, or of release or exculpation provisions, contained in the Opinion Documents to
the extent that enforcement thereof is contrary to public policy regarding the
indemnification against or release or exculpation of criminal violations, intentional harm
or violations of securities laws.

     (d) We express no opinion with respect to the enforceability of any indemnity against
loss in converting into a specified currency the proceeds or amount of a court judgment in
another currency.

     (e) Our opinion is limited to Generally Applicable Law.

          A copy of this opinion letter may be delivered by any of you to any person that becomes a
Lender in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement. Any such person may rely on the
opinion expressed above as if this opinion letter were addressed and delivered to such person on
the date hereof.

          This opinion letter is rendered to you in connection with the transactions contemplated by the
Opinion Documents. This opinion letter may not be relied upon by you or any person entitled to
rely on this opinion pursuant to the preceding paragraph for any other purpose without our prior
written consent.

          This opinion letter speaks only as of the date hereof. We expressly disclaim any
responsibility to advise you of any development or circumstance of any kind, including any change
of law or fact, that may occur after the date of this opinion letter that might affect the opinion
expressed herein.

Very truly yours,

SLH
