without limitation, Section 17) and the performance by each Loan Party of the Financing

(including, without limitation, Section 17) and to perform the Financing Agreement, as
amended hereby.

(b) This Amendment and the Financing Agreement, as amended hereby, is a legal, valid and
binding obligation of each Loan Party, enforceable against each Loan Party in accordance with the

17. Release. The Loan Parties may have certain Claims against the Released Parties,
as those terms are defined below, regarding or relating to the Financing Agreement or the other
Loan Documents. The Agent, the Lead Arranger, the Service Agent, the Lenders and the Loan Parties
desire to resolve each and every one of such Claims in conjunction with the execution of this
Amendment and thus each Loan Party makes the releases contained in this Section 17. In
consideration of the Agent, the Lead Arranger, the Service Agent, and the Lenders entering into
this Amendment and agreeing to substantial concessions as set forth herein, each Loan Party hereby
fully and unconditionally releases and forever discharges each of the Agent, the Lead Arranger, the

or demands and liabilities, of whatever kind or nature, from the beginning of the world to the date
on which this Amendment is executed, whether known or unknown, liquidated or unliquidated, fixed or
contingent, asserted or unasserted, foreseen or unforeseen, matured or unmatured, suspected or
unsuspected, anticipated or unanticipated, which any Loan Party has, had, claims to have had or
hereafter claims to have against the Released Parties by reason of any act or omission on the part
of the Released Parties, or any of them, occurring prior to the date on which this Amendment is
executed, including all such loss or damage of any kind heretofore sustained or that may arise as a
consequence of the dealings among the parties up to and including the date on which this Amendment

and after the Second Amendment Effective Date (i) all references in the Financing Agreement to
“this Agreement”, “hereto”, “hereof”, “hereunder” or words of like import referring to the
Financing Agreement shall mean the Financing Agreement as amended by this Amendment, and (ii) all
references in the other Loan Documents to the “Financing Agreement”, “thereto”, “thereof”,
“thereunder” or words of like import referring to the Financing Agreement shall mean the Financing
Agreement as amended by this Amendment. To the extent that the Financing Agreement or any other
Loan Document purports to pledge to Agent, or to grant to Agent, a security interest or lien, such
pledge or grant is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects. Except as expressly provided
herein, the execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not operate as an
amendment of any right, power or remedy of the Agent, the Lead Arranger, the Service Agent and the
Lenders under the Financing Agreement or any other Loan Document, nor constitute a waiver or an
amendment of any provision of the Financing Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(b) Reaffirmation. Each Loan Party hereby reaffirms its obligations under each Loan
Document to which it is a party. Each Loan Party hereby further ratifies and reaffirms the
validity and enforceability of all of the liens and security interests heretofore granted, pursuant
to and in connection with the Pledge and Security Agreement or any other Loan Document, to Agent,
as collateral security for the obligations under the Loan Documents in accordance with their
respective terms, and acknowledges that all of such Liens and security interests, and all
Collateral heretofore pledged as security for such obligations, continue to be and remain
collateral for such obligations from and after the date hereof.

(c) Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by
different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original,
but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an
executed counterpart of this Amendment by telefacsimile or electronic mail shall be equally as
effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Amendment.

(d) Headings. Section headings herein are included for convenience of reference only
and shall not constitute a part of this Amendment for any other purpose.

(e) Costs and Expenses. The Loan Parties agree to pay on demand all reasonable fees,
costs and expenses of the Agent, the Service Agent and the Lenders pursuant to Section 10.2
of the Financing Agreement in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of this
Amendment.

(f) Second Amendment as Loan Document. Each Loan Party hereby acknowledges and agrees
that this Amendment constitutes a “Loan Document” under the Financing Agreement. Accordingly, it
shall be an Event of Default under the Financing Agreement if (i) any representation or warranty
made by any Loan Party under or in connection with this Amendment shall have been untrue, false or
misleading in any material respect when made, or (ii) any Loan Party shall fail to perform or
observe any term, covenant or agreement contained in this Amendment.

(g) Governing Law. This Amendment shall be governed by the laws of the State of New
York.

(h) Waiver of Jury Trial. THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE THEIR
RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS
