hereafter to require strict performance by the Borrowers and/or the other Credit Parties of any

RATIFICATIONS, REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; CONFIRMATIONS

     8.01 Ratifications; etc. The terms and provisions set forth in this Amendment shall
modify and supersede all inconsistent terms and provisions set forth in Credit Agreement and the
other Loan Documents. The terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, as amended hereby, are ratified and confirmed and shall continue in full force and
effect. For the avoidance of doubt, this Amendment and all prior amendments to the Credit
Agreement shall be considered Loan Documents. The Borrowers, the other Credit Parties, the Lenders
and the Administrative Agent agree that the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as
amended hereby, shall continue to be legal, valid, binding obligations of the parties thereto,
enforceable against such parties in accordance with their respective terms.

hereby confirm and agree that (a) all Liens under the Collateral Documents (as amended) remain in
full force and effect (as so amended) and (b) the guaranty obligations and other obligations of the
Borrowers and all other Credit Parties under the Guaranty and Collateral Agreement (and other
applicable Collateral Documents), as amended, remain in full force and effect (as so amended) and
(as set forth in the Guaranty and Collateral Agreement) such guaranties and Liens (and other
obligations), under the Guaranty and Collateral Agreement shall not be impaired or otherwise
limited by any waiver or modification set forth in this Amendment (and nothing contained in this
Amendment shall, or shall be interpreted to, create a custom, course of dealing or other agreement
or arrangement by which the consent or confirmation of any Credit Party to any modification or
waiver is required in order to keep any obligations (with respect to any guarantee, granting of
Liens or otherwise) under the Guaranty and Collateral Agreement (and other applicable Collateral
Documents) in full force and effect, it being agreed that no such consent or confirmation is
necessary or required in order to keep such obligations in full force and effect. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing (or of Section 1.2(e) of the Credit Agreement), it is
hereby confirmed and agreed that any reference in the Loan Documents to any Note shall include all
amendments, restatements, supplements and other modifications thereto and any Notes issued under
Section 15.6.1 of the Credit Agreement and/or other Notes in substitution or replacement of
any Note(s). Any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or confirmation set
forth in this Amendment by any Borrower or any other Credit Party shall be deemed to constitute an
Event of Default under the Credit Agreement.

     8.02 Representations and Warranties. Each of the Borrowers and the other Credit
Parties hereby represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that (a) the
execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment and any and all Loan Documents executed
and/or delivered in connection herewith have been authorized by all requisite corporate (or other
applicable organization) action on the part of such Borrower or other Credit Party, as the case may
be, and will not violate the charter, by-laws or other organizational documents of such Borrower or
other Credit Party; (b) the representations and warranties of such Borrower or other Credit Party,
as the case may be, contained in any Loan Document are true and correct in all respects (or if the
applicable representation or warranty is not qualified by a materiality qualifier, true and correct
in all material respects) on the date hereof and on and as of the date of execution hereof as
though made on and as of each such date (except to the extent stated to relate to a specific
earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties were true and correct in all
respects (or if the applicable representation or warranty is not qualified by a materiality
qualifier, true and correct in all material respects) as of such earlier date); (c) after giving
effect to the amendments set forth herein, no Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default under
the Credit Agreement has occurred and is continuing; and (d) no Credit Party that is party to the
Guaranty and Collateral Agreement has changed its legal name since November 21, 2006 except (i)
Newco changed its name from Mainsee 430. VV GmbH to Baldwin Germany Holding GmbH, (ii) Oxy-Dry GmbH
changed its name from Oxy-Dry Maschinen GmbH to Baldwin Oxy-Dry GmbH, (iii) Baldwin Southeast Asia
Corporation changed its name from Oxy-Dry Asia Pacific, Inc and (iv) Baldwin Rockford Corporation

acknowledge and agree that all unpaid principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest under, each of
the Loans (and any reimbursement obligations with respect to any Letters of Credit and any other
outstanding Obligations) is justly owed without claim, counterclaim, cross-complaint, offset,
defense or other reduction of any

- 12 -

 

kind against the Lenders or the Administrative Agent. The Parent acknowledges and agrees that
each Warrant constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Parent, enforceable against
the Parent in accordance with its respective terms and Parent has no claims, counterclaims,
cross-complaints, offsets, defenses or other reduction of any kind with respect to its respective
obligations thereunder.

     8.03 Confirmations. All confirmations and agreements set forth in Sections
7.03, 7.04 and 7.05 of Amendment No. 5 remain in full force and effect.

ARTICLE IX

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

     9.01 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties
made in the Credit Agreement or the Guaranty and Collateral Agreement or any other Loan Documents
or under or in connection with this Amendment, including, without limitation, any document
furnished in connection with this Amendment, shall survive the execution and delivery of this
Amendment and the other Loan Documents.

     9.02 Severability. Any provision of this Amendment held by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable shall not impair or invalidate the remainder of this
Amendment and the effect thereof shall be confined to the provision so held to be invalid or
unenforceable.

     9.03 Successors and Assigns. This Amendment is binding upon and shall inure to the
benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Borrowers and the other Credit Parties and
their respective successors and assigns, except that no Borrower or Credit Party may assign or
transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the
Administrative Agent. It is acknowledged and agreed that Bank of America, N.A., has, as successor
by merger to LaSalle Bank National Association, succeeded to all of the respective rights and
duties of LaSalle Bank National Association as a Lender (including without limitation as the
Issuing Lender), and the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents.

     9.04 Certain Costs and Expenses. Without in any way limiting the generality of
Sections 10.2 or 15.5 of the Credit Agreement, the Parent acknowledges and agrees
that it shall (i) promptly pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of all legal counsel retained
by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery
of this Amendment or the 2011 Warrants or any related documents or any future waiver or
modification (or proposed modification or waiver whether or not consummated), if any, of any Loan
Document(s) or the Warrants or any related documents (provided that Parent shall not have to pay
the allocable costs of internal legal services of the Administrative Agent in connection with the
preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Amendment; provided it is understood and
agreed that this parenthetical phrase shall not, and shall not be interpreted to, limit the right
of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to receive the allocable costs of internal legal services
with respect to agreements or matters other than the preparation, negotiation, execution and
delivery of this Amendment), (ii) promptly pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of any legal
counsel retained by any of the Lenders in connection with the review or negotiation of the 2011
Warrants or any related warrant document, and (iii) promptly pay all

- 13 -

 

fees of Capstone (as defined in the Modification and Limited Waiver) incurred (at any time) by
the Agent whether such fees relate to the Refinancing, discussions with the Loan Parties, the
Investment Banker (in the case of the Investment Banker, with respect to matters relating solely to
the Refinancing), the Lenders or the Administrative Agent, updates to the Lenders or the
Administrative Agent, the review of projections or the revised audit report and financial
statements referred to in Section 5.01(h) above or other financial matters, or any other
matters relating to the Loan Parties and/or Subsidiaries (it is understood and agreed that the
$8,361.25 of Capstone fees referred to in Sections 4.01(c) above are with respect to fees
incurred through the date hereof and that the Parent shall also be responsible for (and promptly
pay upon presentation of invoices by Capstone) any fees of Capstone incurred after the date
hereof). The obligations of the Parent under this Section 9.04 shall be considered part of
the Parent’s obligations under Section 15.5 of the Credit Agreement. The Borrowers and
other Credit Parties hereby agree that all findings and conclusions and other work product of
Capstone shall be protected by the attorney-client privilege and shall not be subject to review or
discovery by the Borrowers or any other Credit Party.

     9.05 Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed and delivered by facsimile,
portable document format (“.pdf”), Tagged Image File Format (“.TIFF”) or other electronic means of
delivery and in one or more counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an
original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

     9.06 Preliminary Statements. The Preliminary Statements set forth in this Amendment
are accurate and shall form a substantive part of the agreement of the parties hereto.

     9.07 Headings. The headings, captions, and arrangements used in this Amendment are
for convenience only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Amendment.

     9.08 Relationship. The relationship between the Borrowers and other Credit Parties on
the one hand and the Lenders and the Administrative Agent on the other hand shall be solely that of
borrowers and guarantors, on the one hand, and lender on the other (or, in the case of the
Warrants, the relationship is that the Parent is the issuer, and the applicable Lender is the
holder, of the applicable Warrant). Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any
fiduciary relationship with or duty to any Borrower or other Credit Party arising out of or in
connection with this Amendment or any of the other Loan Documents or the Warrants or any related
documents, and the relationship between the Borrowers and other Credit Parties, on the one hand,
and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on the other hand, in connection herewith or
therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor (or, in the case of the Warrants, the relationship
is that the Parent is the issuer, and the applicable Lender is the holder, of the applicable
Warrant). The Borrowers and other Credit Parties acknowledge that they have been advised by
counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Amendment and the other Loan Documents
and the Warrants and any related documents. No joint venture or partnership is created hereby or
by the other Loan Documents or by the Warrants or related documents or otherwise exists by virtue
of the transactions contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents (or the Warrants or related
documents) among the Lenders or among the Borrowers (and other Credit Parties) and the Lenders (or
the Agent). It is acknowledged and agreed by all Lenders that each Lender is the owner of its
individual Warrants which individual Warrants are exercisable by such Lender at its

- 14 -

 

own election. No other Lender (or the Administrative Agent) has any obligations with respect
to the Warrants issued to any other Lender or for the performance or content of any Warrants issued
to any other Lender.

     9.09 Time is of the Essence. The parties hereto (i) have agreed specifically with
regard to the times for performance set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents and (ii)
acknowledge and agree such times are material to this Amendment and the other Loan Documents.
Therefore, time is of the essence with respect to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

     9.10 Jury Trial; Indemnification. Without limiting the generality of Sections
15.17, 15.18, 15.19 and 15.20 of the Credit Agreement, it is hereby
agreed that the terms and provisions of such Sections shall apply to this Amendment and any
transaction or matter contemplated by, in connection with or arising out of this Amendment.

     9.11 Applicable Law. THIS AMENDMENT AND ALL OTHER AGREEMENTS EXECUTED PURSUANT HERETO
(EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN ANY SUCH AGREEMENT) SHALL BE A CONTRACT MADE UNDER AND GOVERNED
BY THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED
ENTIRELY WITHIN SUCH STATE (INCLUDING SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL
OBLIGATIONS LAW).

     9.12 Final Agreement. THE CREDIT AGREEMENT (AS AMENDED HEREBY) AND THE OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE ENTIRE EXPRESSION OF THE PARTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF
AND THEREOF ON THE DATE THIS AMENDMENT IS EXECUTED. THE CREDIT AGREEMENT (AS AMENDED HEREBY) AND
THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR
SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE
PARTIES. WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING PROVISIONS, THE BORROWERS AND THE OTHER
CREDIT PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT NEITHER ANY LENDER NOR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT HAS MADE
ANY PROMISES OR ASSURANCES WITH RESPECT TO, AND THE BORROWERS AND OTHER CREDIT PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE
AND AGREE THAT THERE IS NO ORAL AGREEMENT WITH RESPECT TO, ANY FUTURE AMENDMENT, WAIVER OR OTHER
MODIFICATION OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY RESTRUCTURING OR WORKOUT THEREOF OR WITH RESPECT THERETO.
WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING, THE BORROWERS AND OTHER CREDIT PARTIES
ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT (1) THERE IS NO ORAL AGREEMENT AS TO ANY EXTENSION OF THE TERMINATION
DATE OR FOR THE EXTENSION OF ANY OTHER DATE FOR THE PAYMENT OF ANY OBLIGATIONS (OR FOR ANY
EXTENSION OF ANY DATE FOR THE TERMINATION OF ANY COMMITMENTS) AND (2) NO FAILURE OF THE PARENT OR
ANY OF THE OTHER CREDIT PARTIES TO OBTAIN THE REFINANCING (REGARDLESS OF WHETHER OR NOT THE PARENT
HAS USED ITS REASONABLE BEST EFFORTS TO OBTAIN THE REFINANCING) SHALL EXCUSE, OR DELAY, THE PAYMENT
OF ANY OF THE OBLIGATIONS WHEN DUE UNDER THE TERMS OF THE

- 15 -

 

LOAN DOCUMENTS (OR, IN THE CASE OF OBLIGATIONS CONSISTING OF BANK PRODUCT OBLIGATIONS, UNDER
THE TERMS OF THE DOCUMENTS EVIDENCING SUCH BANK PRODUCT OBLIGATIONS). NO MODIFICATION, RESCISSION,
WAIVER, RELEASE OR AMENDMENT OF ANY PROVISION OF THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE MADE, EXCEPT BY A WRITTEN
AGREEMENT SIGNED BY THE BORROWERS AND THE REQUIRED LENDERS AND (WITH RESPECT TO MATTERS AFFECTING
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT) THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND (WITH RESPECT TO MATTERS AFFECTING THE
ISSUING LENDER) THE ISSUING LENDER.

     9.13 Release. EACH OF THE BORROWERS AND THE OTHER CREDIT PARTIES HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES
THAT, AS OF THE DATE HEREOF, IT HAS NO DEFENSE, COUNTERCLAIM, OFFSET, CROSS-COMPLAINT, CLAIM OR
DEMAND OF ANY KIND OR NATURE WHATSOEVER THAT CAN BE ASSERTED (A) TO REDUCE OR ELIMINATE ALL OR ANY
PART OF ITS APPLICABLE LIABILITIES UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, ANY BANK PRODUCT AGREEMENT (INCLUDING
ANY HEDGING AGREEMENT) WITH ANY LENDER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE
AFFILIATES OR UNDER THE WARRANTS OR ANY RELATED DOCUMENT AND/OR (B) TO SEEK AFFIRMATIVE RELIEF OR
DAMAGES OF ANY KIND OR NATURE FROM THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF THE LENDERS (OR ANY OF THEIR
RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES). EACH OF THE BORROWERS AND THE OTHER CREDIT PARTIES HEREBY VOLUNTARILY AND
KNOWINGLY RELEASES AND FOREVER DISCHARGES THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND LENDERS, THEIR PREDECESSORS,
AGENTS, AFFILIATES, EMPLOYEES, SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS, FROM ALL POSSIBLE CLAIMS, DEMANDS, ACTIONS,
CAUSES OF ACTION, DAMAGES, COSTS, EXPENSES, AND LIABILITIES WHATSOEVER, KNOWN OR UNKNOWN,
ANTICIPATED OR UNANTICIPATED, SUSPECTED OR UNSUSPECTED, FIXED, CONTINGENT, OR CONDITIONAL, AT LAW
OR IN EQUITY, ORIGINATING IN WHOLE OR IN PART ON OR BEFORE THE DATE THIS AMENDMENT IS EXECUTED,
WHICH SUCH BORROWER OR OTHER CREDIT PARTY MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT, LENDERS, THEIR PREDECESSORS, AGENTS, EMPLOYEES, SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS, IF ANY, AND
IRRESPECTIVE OF WHETHER ANY SUCH CLAIMS ARISE OUT OF CONTRACT, TORT, VIOLATION OF LAW OR
REGULATIONS, OR OTHERWISE, AND ARISING OUT OF OR OTHERWISE IN ANY WAY RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THIS
AMENDMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, HEDGING AGREEMENT, BANK PRODUCT AGREEMENT, THE OBLIGATIONS,
THE WARRANTS OR ANY RELATED DOCUMENT, ANY OTHER TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED BY ANY OF THE FOREGOING
DOCUMENTS, OR ANY ACTION OR OMISSION OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER UNDER OR OTHERWISE
IN ANY WAY RELATING TO ANY OF THE FOREGOING DOCUMENTS. THE BORROWERS AND OTHER CREDIT PARTIES
EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY PROVISION OF STATUTORY OR DECISIONAL LAW TO THE EFFECT THAT A GENERAL RELEASE
DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE RELEASING PARTY(IES) DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN SUCH
PARTY’S FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH, IF KNOWN BY SUCH PARTY, MUST OR MIGHT
HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED SUCH PARTY’S SETTLEMENT WITH THE RELEASED PARTIES. NOTHING CONTAINED IN
THIS PARAGRAPH SHALL, OR SHALL BE

- 16 -

 

INTERPRETED TO, IMPAIR ANY RIGHTS OF ANY BORROWER (OR OTHER CREDIT PARTY) WITH RESPECT TO ANY
DEPOSIT OR OTHER BANK ACCOUNTS OF SUCH BORROWER OR OTHER CREDIT PARTY (OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE
SUBSIDIARIES) WITH ANY LENDER OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT.

     9.14 Warrant Value; OID. The Lenders and the Borrowers agree (i) that the aggregate
fair market value (as of the date hereof) of all of the 2011 Warrants is equal to $554,836
(allocated as follows: $277,418 for the 2011 Warrant issued to Bank of America, N.A., in its
capacity as Lender, $110,967 for the 2011 Warrant issued to Webster Bank, National Association, as
Lender, and $166,451 for the 2011 Warrant issued to RBS Citizens, N.A., as Lender), (ii) that as a
result of (x) the value allocated to the 2011 Warrants pursuant to clause (i) above, as well as (y)
the value allocated to the 2010 Warrants and certain interest attributable to the Incremental
Margin being payable on the Termination Date, in each case (under this clause (y)) as described in
Section 8.14 of Amendment No. 8, the Permanent Loans Notes are deemed, for federal income tax
purposes, to be issued with original issue discount (“OID”), as defined in Section
1273(a)(1) of the Code, (iii) that any calculation by any of the Borrowers regarding the amount of
OID for any accrual period on such Notes shall be subject to review and approval of the Required
Lenders, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, and (iv) to
adhere to this Amendment for federal income tax purposes and not to take any action or file any tax
return, report or declaration inconsistent herewith (including with respect to the amount of OID on
such Notes as determined in accordance with the preceding clause (iii)). It is agreed that the
provisions of Section 8.14 of Amendment No. 8 remain in full force and effect. Nothing contained
in this paragraph or in such Section 8.14 shall, or shall be interpreted to, limit any obligation
of any Borrower under any such Note or under any other Loan Document or of the Parent under the
Warrants.

     9.15 Certain Acknowledgments and Representations. Each of the Lenders hereby
acknowledges for itself, severally only and not jointly, that (i) the 2011 Warrant issued to it and
any shares of Common Stock issuable upon any of its exercise are, as of the date hereof, not
registered: (A) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) on the ground
that the issuance of the 2011 Warrants is exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Act as
not involving any public offering or (B) under any applicable state securities law because the
issuance of the 2011 Warrants does not involve any public offering and (ii) the Parent’s reliance
on the Section 4(2) exemption of the Act and under applicable state securities laws is predicated
in part on the representations severally made below by the Lenders to the Parent. Each Lender,
severally only and not jointly, represents and warrants as to itself that it is (i) an “accredited
investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Act, (ii) (A) familiar with
the business and affairs of the Parent and (B) knowledgeable and experienced in financial and
business matters to the extent that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an
investment in a 2011 Warrant and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon their exercise, and (iii)
acquiring a 2011 Warrant and will acquire the shares of Common Stock issuable upon its exercise for
investment for its own account, with no present intention of dividing its participation with others
or reselling or otherwise distributing the same. No breach of any such representation or warranty
or other provision of this paragraph shall impair any obligations of the Credit Parties under the
Loan Documents.
