Agent receives written notice to the contrary. The Administrative Agent and the Lender shall have
no duty to verify the authenticity of the signature appearing on any written Notice of Borrowing.

               (b) Each Notice of Borrowing pursuant to this Section 2.02 shall be irrevocable and the
Borrower shall be bound to make a borrowing in accordance therewith.

               (c) Except as otherwise provided in this subsection 2.02(c), to the extent there is more than
one Lender hereunder, all Loans under this Agreement shall be made by the Lenders simultaneously
and proportionately to their Pro Rata Shares of the Total Term Loan Commitment, it being understood
that no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in that other Lender’s
obligations to make a Loan requested hereunder, nor shall the Commitment of any Lender be increased
or decreased as a result of the default by any other Lender in that other Lender’s obligation to
make a Loan requested hereunder, and each Lender shall be obligated to make the Loans required to
be made by it by the terms of this Agreement regardless of the failure by any other Lender.

               (d) All Loans shall be made in same day available funds and sent by wire transfer to the
Operating Account.

          Section
2.03 Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) The outstanding principal of the Loan
(including the PIK Interest Amount payable with respect to each Tranche) shall be due and payable
on the Final Maturity Date.

               (b) Each Lender (in the event there is more than one Lender hereunder) shall maintain in
accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the Indebtedness of the
Borrower to such Lender resulting from the Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of
principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

               (c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount
of the Loan made hereunder, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to
become due and payable from the Borrower to the Lender hereunder (including PIK Interest Amounts),
(iii) the aggregate amount of each Tranche and the amount of, and the Applicable Interest Rate for,
each Sub-Tranche making up the Tranche and (iv) the amount of

28

 

any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lender (and, in
the event there is more than one Lender hereunder, each Lender’s share thereof).

               (d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this
Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the
obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of the Lender or the Administrative
Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation
of the Borrower to repay the Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

               (e) Any Lender may request that the Loan made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such
event, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order
of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) in a
form furnished by the Collateral Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. Thereafter, the
Loan evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after
assignment pursuant to Section 12.07) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form
payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note,
to such payee and its registered assigns).

               (f) Prior to or contemporaneously with the funding of each Tranche, the Lender or the
Administrative Agent shall send written notice to the Borrower designating the amounts, Applicable
Interest Rate and designation of each Sub-Tranche making up the Tranche. The Lender and the
Administrative Agent agree that they shall base such designation solely upon its cost of funds,
with the intent and understanding that the interest rate for each Sub-Tranche shall match the
Lender’s cost of funds rate. In the event that the Lender’s cost of funds for the monies funded or
to be funded in the relevant advance is at more than one of the Applicable Interest Rates, the
parties hereto agree to split the Tranche into two or more Sub-Tranches, as appropriate, so that
each Sub-Tranche bears a 14%, 15% or 16% rate of interest and the Tranche bears a rate of interest
equal to the Weighted Average Interest Rate based on the amounts and the Applicable Interest Rates
for the Sub-Tranches. Unless the Lender or the Administrative Agent shall send written notice to
the Borrower on or before the date of funding a Tranche that it is designating the types of
Sub-Tranches comprising the Tranche, such Tranche shall be deemed to have been funded entirely with
a 14% Sub-Tranche. The parties agree to cooperate in setting these rates and administering Notices
of Borrowings to take into account these varying rates and the mechanics required to administer
them, including permitting amendments to Notices of Borrowings to accommodate the designation of
rates different than anticipated.

          Section 2.04 Interest. (a) Each Tranche of a Term Loan shall bear interest on the principal amount
thereof from time to time outstanding, from the date of such Tranche until such principal amount
becomes due, at a rate per annum equal to the Weighted Average Interest Rate for the Tranche based
on the Applicable Interest Rates for the Sub-Tranches; provided, that, subject to
paragraph (c) of this Section 2.04, all of such interest (the “PIK Interest Amount”) shall
be paid-in-kind by being added to the outstanding principal balance of such Tranche. Any interest
shall be capitalized on each annual anniversary date of the Tranche and added to the then
outstanding principal amount of such Tranche and, thereafter, shall bear interest as provided
hereunder as if it had originally been part of the outstanding principal of such Tranche.

29

 

               (b) Default Interest. To the extent permitted by law and notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in this Section, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, the principal of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all Term Loans, fees,
indemnities or any other Obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, shall bear interest, from the date such Event of Default occurred until the date such
Event of Default is cured or waived in writing in accordance herewith, at a rate per annum equal at
all times to 18%.

               (c) Interest Payment. Notwithstanding paragraph (a) of this Section 2.04, interest on
each Term Loan shall be payable, without duplication:

                    (i) on each date Collections are received if sufficient Collections or other funds are
available hereunder for the payment of interest pursuant to Section 2.05(d); and

                    (ii) on the Final Maturity Date;

provided, that interest payable pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 2.04 shall be
payable on demand. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to, and the
Administrative Agent may, from time to time, charge the Loan Account pursuant to Section 4.02 with
the amount of any interest payment due hereunder.

               (d) General. All interest payable hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year
of 360 days for the actual number of days, including the first day but excluding the last day
elapsed and shall compound annually.

               (e) It is intended by the parties hereto that all interest paid pursuant to this Agreement
shall constitute “portfolio interest” within the meaning of Sections 871(h) and 881(c) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the Treasury Regulations
promulgated thereunder.

          Section 2.05 Reduction of Commitment; Prepayment of Loans.

               (a) Reduction of Commitments. The Total Term Loan Commitment shall terminate at 5:00
p.m. (New York City time) on the Term Loan Commitment Termination Date. In addition, the Total Term
Loan Commitment (and the Term Loan Commitment of each Lender if there is more than one Lender
hereunder) shall be reduced in accordance with Section 2.01(b).

               (b) Reserved.

               (c) Mandatory Prepayment. (i) On each date on which Collections are received by the
Originator, the Borrower, the Servicer or the Insurance Collateral Agent or any other Person on
their behalf in respect of any Insurance Premium Loan (or related Life Insurance Policy) acquired
by the Borrower (actually or beneficially through a participation) with proceeds from a Tranche or
the Collateral Value Policy or the Contingent Collateral Value Policy, Borrower shall repay the
principal amount and the interest then due and payable thereon of the

30

 

related Tranche of the Term Loan, to the extent of Collections available therefor in
accordance with Section 2.05(d) hereof.

                    (ii) If on any day a Borrowing Base Deficit exists, on such date Borrower shall make a
prepayment of the principal amount of the related Tranche in an amount equal to such Borrowing Base
Deficit.

               (d) Application of Payments. On each day that Collections (other than Salvage
Collections, but including all payments made by the Collateral Value Insurer or the Contingent
Collateral Value Insurer to the Borrower under the Collateral Value Policy or the Contingent
Collateral Value Policy) are received by the Servicer, the Originator, the Borrower, or the
Insurance Collateral Agent or any other Person on their behalf in respect of any Insurance Premium
Loan (or related Life Insurance Policy) financed hereunder or the Collateral Value Policy or the
Contingent Collateral Value Policy, the Borrower shall (or shall cause such other Person to) on the
Business Day of such receipt, transfer such amounts to the Collection Account for distribution in
accordance with this Section 2.05(d). On each such date, as long as no Default or Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower shall distribute (from such amounts so deposited in
the Collection Account with respect thereto) such Collections with respect to the Covered Portion
of an Insurance Premium Loan (other than Salvage Collections) in the following order of priority:

                    (i) first, to pay interest then due and payable in respect of the related Tranche
until paid in full,

                    (ii) second, to pay principal of the related Tranche until paid in full,

                    (iii) third, to replace in the Reserve Account any funds used for Reserve Payments on
the related Tranche (“Replacement Funds”), to the extent the funds used for such Reserve Payments
were originally deposited less than eighteen (18) months earlier than the date such Collections are
being distributed (it being understood that the date(s) of deposit of such Replacement Funds shall
be deemed to be the original date(s) of deposit of the funds used for such Reserve Payments), and

                    (iv) fourth, any remaining Collections with respect to the Covered Portion of an
Insurance Premium Loan on such date shall be paid to the Borrower, for its own account.

          On each such date, after giving effect to the application of Collections with respect to the
Covered Portion of an Insurance Premium Loan set forth above, as long as no Default or Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower shall transfer (from such amounts so deposited
in the Collection Account with respect thereto) such Collections with respect to the Uncovered
Portion of an Insurance Premium Loan (other than Salvage Collections) into the Reserve Account.
Amounts placed in a Reserve Account shall be used (on a first in, first out basis), first,
to pay any amounts due on the related Tranche on or after the due date thereof to the extent such
Tranche is not otherwise satisfied from Collections with respect to the Covered Portion of
Insurance Premium Loans financed by such Tranche and, second, to pay, pro rata, any

31

 

amounts due on other Tranches on or after the due date thereof to the extent such Tranches are
not otherwise satisfied from Collections with respect to the Covered Portion of Insurance Premium
Loans financed by such Tranches (in either case, a “Reserve Payment”). Any amounts remaining in
the Reserve Account more than eighteen (18) months after they are deposited therein or if earlier,
the repayment of all amounts due and owing by the Borrower hereunder, shall be released by to the
Borrower, for its own account.

          At any time a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all Collections
shall be distributed and applied pursuant to Section 4.04(b).

               (e) Salvage Collections. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.05(d), Section
4.04(b) or any other provision of this Agreement, on each date which Collections are received with
respect to any Insurance Premium Loan for which there are Salvage Collections, the Borrower, the
Lenders or the Agents shall, to the extent received by them, distribute such Salvage Collections on
such date to the Collateral Value Insurer or the Contingent Collateral Value Insurer, as
applicable, that paid the claim to the Borrower.

               (f) Interest and Fees. Any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.05 shall be
accompanied by accrued interest on the principal amount being prepaid to the date of prepayment,
the Applicable Prepayment Premium, if any, payable in connection with such prepayment and if such
prepayment would reduce the amount of the outstanding Loan to zero, such prepayment shall be
accompanied by the payment of all fees accrued to such date pursuant to Section 2.06.

               (g) Cumulative Prepayments. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section
2.05, payments with respect to any subsection of this Section 2.05 are in addition to payments made
or required to be made under any other subsection of this Section 2.05.

          Section 2.06 Applicable Prepayment Premium. In the event of the termination of this Agreement and
repayment of the Obligations at any time prior to the second anniversary of the Effective Date, for
any reason, including (i) termination upon the election of the Lender to terminate after the
occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, (ii) foreclosure and sale of
Collateral, (iii) sale of the Collateral in any Insolvency Proceeding, or (iv) restructure,
reorganization, or compromise of the Obligations by the confirmation of a plan of reorganization or
any other plan of compromise, restructure, or arrangement in any Insolvency Proceeding, then, in
view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining the actual amount of damages to
the Agents and the Lender or profits lost by the Agents and the Lender as a result of such early
termination, and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable estimation and calculation
of the lost profits or damages of the Agents and the Lenders, the Borrower shall pay to the
Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lender (or in the event there is more than one Lender,
in accordance with such Lender’s Pro Rata Share), the Applicable Prepayment Premium, measured as of
the date of such termination.

          Section 2.07 Securitization. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that the Lender and its Affiliates
may sell or securitize the Loan (a “Securitization”) through the pledge of the Loan as
collateral security for loans to the Lenders or their Affiliates or through the sale of the Loan or
the issuance of direct or indirect interests in the Loan or through obligations of the

32

 

Lender secured by the Loan or portions thereof, which loans to the Lenders or their Affiliates
or direct or indirect interests or obligations of the Lender may be rated by Moody’s Investors
Service, Inc., Standard & Poor’s Investors Rating Services or Fitch Rating’s (each, a “Rating
Agency” and collectively, the “Rating Agencies”). The Borrower shall cooperate with the
Lender and its Affiliates to effect the Securitization including, without limitation, by (a)
amending this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and executing such additional documents, as
reasonably requested by the Lender in connection with the Securitization, provided
that (i) any such amendment or additional documentation does not impose material additional
costs on the Borrower and (ii) any such amendment or additional documentation does not materially
adversely affect the rights, or materially increase the obligations, of the Borrower under the Loan
Documents or change or affect in a manner adverse to the Borrower the financial terms of the Loan
and (b) providing such information as may be reasonably requested by the Lender in connection with
the rating of the Loan or the Securitization.

          Section 2.08
Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan
Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future
taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect
thereto, excluding taxes imposed on the net income of any Agent, any Lender (or any transferee or
assignee thereof, including a participation holder (any such entity, a “Transferee”)) by
the jurisdiction in which such Person is organized or has its principal lending office (all such
nonexcluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges withholdings and liabilities, collectively
or individually, “Taxes”). If the Borrower shall be required to deduct any Taxes from or in
respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Agent, any Lender (or any Transferee), (i) the sum
payable shall be increased by the amount (an “Additional Amount”) necessary so that after
making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under
this Section 2.08) such Agent, such Lender (or such Transferee) shall receive an amount equal to
the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such
deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental
Authority in accordance with applicable law.

               (b) In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in
accordance with applicable law any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise
or property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise from any payment made hereunder or from the
execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other
Loan Document (“Other Taxes”). The Borrower shall deliver to each Agent and each Lender
official receipts in respect of any Taxes or Other Taxes payable hereunder promptly after payment
of such Taxes or Other Taxes.

               (c) The Borrower hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold each Agent and each Lender harmless
from and against Taxes and Other Taxes (including, without limitation, Taxes and Other Taxes
imposed on any amounts payable under this Section 2.08) paid by such Person, whether or not such
Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. Such indemnification shall be paid within
10 days from the date on which any such Person makes written demand therefore specifying in
reasonable detail the nature and amount of such Taxes or Other Taxes.

33

 

               (d) Each Lender (or Transferee) that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the
United States (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) agrees that it shall, no later than the Effective Date
(or, in the case of a Lender which becomes a party hereto pursuant to Section 12.07 hereof after
the Effective Date, promptly after the date upon which such Lender becomes a party hereto) deliver
to the Agents one properly completed and duly executed copy of either U.S. Internal Revenue Service
Form W-8BEN, W-8ECI or W-8IMY or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, in each
case claiming complete exemption from, or reduced rate of, U.S. Federal withholding tax and
payments of interest hereunder. In addition, in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption
from U.S. Federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, such
Non-U.S. Lender hereby represents to the Agents and the Borrower that such Non-U.S. Lender is not a
bank for purposes of Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, is not a 10-percent shareholder
(within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code) of the Borrower and is
not a controlled foreign corporation related to the Borrower (within the meaning of Section
864(d)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code), and such Non-U.S. Lender agrees that it shall promptly
notify the Agents in the event any such representation is no longer accurate. Such forms shall be
delivered by each Non-U.S. Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or,
in the case of a Transferee that is a participation holder, on or before the date such
participation holder becomes a Transferee hereunder) and on or before the date, if any, such
Non-U.S. Lender changes its applicable lending office by designating a different lending office (a
“New Lending Office”). In addition, such Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver such forms within 20
days after receipt of a written request therefor from any Agent, the assigning Lender or the Lender
granting a participation, as applicable. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.08,
a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this Section 2.08(d) that
such Non-U.S. Lender is not legally able to deliver.

               (e) The Borrower shall not be required to indemnify any Non-U.S. Lender, or pay any Additional
Amounts to any Non-U.S. Lender, in respect of United States Federal withholding tax pursuant to
this Section 2.08 to the extent that (i) the obligation to withhold amounts with respect to United
States Federal withholding tax existed on the date such Non-U.S. Lender became a party to this
Agreement (or, in the case of a Transferee that is a participation holder, on the date such
participation holder became a Transferee hereunder) or, with respect to payments to a New Lending
Office, the date such Non-U.S. Lender designated such New Lending Office with respect to a Loan;
provided, however, that this clause (i) shall not apply to the extent the indemnity
payment or Additional Amounts any Transferee, or Lender (or Transferee) through a New Lending
Office, would be entitled to receive (without regard to this clause (i)) do not exceed the
indemnity payment or Additional Amounts that the Person making the assignment, participation or
transfer to such Transferee, or Lender (or Transferee) making the designation of such New Lending
Office, would have been entitled to receive in the absence of such assignment, participation,
transfer or designation, or (ii) the obligation to pay such Additional Amounts would not have
arisen but for a failure by such Non-U.S. Lender to comply with the provisions of clause (d) above.

               (f) Any Agent or any Lender (or Transferee) claiming any indemnity payment or additional
payment amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.08 shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with
legal and regulatory restrictions) to file any certificate or document reasonably requested in
writing by the Borrower or to change the jurisdiction of its

34

 

applicable lending office if the making of such a filing or change would avoid the need for or
reduce the amount of any such indemnity payment or additional amount that may thereafter accrue,
would not require such Agent or such Lender (or Transferee) to disclose any information such Agent
or such Lender (or Transferee) deems confidential and would not, in the sole determination of such
Agent or such Lender (or Transferee), be otherwise disadvantageous to such Agent or such Lender (or
Transferee).

               (g) The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 2.08 shall survive the termination of
this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

          Section 2.09 Increase in Term Loan Commitment; Extension of Term Loan Commitment
Termination Date

               (a) Request for Increase. Provided no Default or Event of Default then exists or
would arise therefrom, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the
Lenders), the Borrower may, from time to time, request an increase in the Term Loan Commitment by
an amount not exceeding Two Hundred Thirty Five Million Dollars ($235,000,000) in the aggregate
(the “Commitment Increase”) and, if necessary, a suggested extension of the Term Loan
Commitment Termination Date; provided that any such request for a Commitment Increase shall be in a
minimum amount of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000). Following the delivery by the Borrower of the
request, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall, by notice to the Borrower given not more
than thirty (30) Business Days after the date of receipt of such notice, either accept the request
or reject the request, provided that, the Lenders shall have no obligation to accept any request.

               (b) Lender Elections to Increase. Each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent
within such time period whether or not it agrees to increase its Term Loan Commitment and, if so,
whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Pro Rata Share of such requested
Commitment Increase. Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have
declined to increase its Term Loan Commitment.

               (c) Effective Date and Allocations. If the Term Loan Commitment is increased in
accordance with this Section 2.09, the Administrative Agent shall determine the effective date (the
“Increase Effective Date”), the period of time by which the Term Loan Commitment
Termination Date is extended and the final allocation of such Commitment Increase. The
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the first allocation of
such Commitment Increase, the period of time by which the Term Loan Commitment Termination Date is
extended and the Increase Effective Date and, on the Increase Effective Date, (i) the Term Loan
Commitment under, and for all purposes of, this Agreement shall be increased by the aggregate
amount of such Commitment Increase, (ii) clause (iii) of the definition of Term Loan Commitment
Termination Date shall be extended by the period of time as notified by the Administrative Agent
and (iii) Schedule 1.01(A) shall be deemed modified, without further action, to reflect the revised
Term Loan Commitment of the Lenders.

               (d) Conditions to Effectiveness of Commitment Increase. As a condition precedent to
such Commitment Increase: (i) the Borrower shall have delivered to the

35

 

Administrative Agent a certificate of each Credit Party dated as of the Increase Effective
Date (in sufficient copies for each Lender) signed by an Authorized Officer of such Credit Party
(A) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Credit Party approving or consenting
to such Commitment Increase, and (B) in the case of the Borrower, certifying that, before and after
giving effect so such Commitment Increase, the representations and warranties contained in Article
VI and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the
Increase Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically
refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct in all material respects as of
such earlier date, in which case they are true and correct in all material respects as of such
earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Section 2.09, the representations and warranties
contained in subsections (g)(i) and (g)(ii) of Section 6.01 shall be deemed to refer to the most
recent statements furnished pursuant to subsections (a)(i) and (a)(ii), respectively, of Section
7.01; (ii) the Borrower shall have paid such fees and other compensation to the Agents and Lenders
as they require; (iii) the borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent and the
lenders an opinion or opinions substantially similar to the opinions delivered on the Effective
Date from counsel to the Credit Parties reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and
dated such date; (iv) the Borrower shall have delivered such other instruments, documents and
agreements as the Administrative Agent may reasonably have requested including, without limitation,
an amendment to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, if required by the Administrative
Agent; and (v) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

          Section 2.10
Indemnity Escrow. Within thirty (30) days of the Effective Date or if earlier, the
date that the Indemnity Escrow Agreement is executed and effective, the Borrower shall deposit into
the escrow account held under the Indemnity Escrow Agreement (the “Indemnity Escrow”) an amount
equal to two percent (2%) of all Term Loans under this Agreement. The amounts held under the
Indemnity Escrow Agreement shall at all times be under the exclusive dominion and control of the
Escrow Agent and neither the Borrower nor the Agents shall have any access thereto or right to make
any withdrawal therefrom, except that the Agents shall be permitted to have funds distributed to
them out of the Indemnity Escrow to the extent that any Indemnitee is entitled to any
indemnification under Section 12.15 hereof from the Borrower which is not timely paid, in which
case the Agents shall cause such distributions to be paid to such Indemnitees. In connection with
any Term Loans made prior to the execution and effectiveness of the Indemnity Escrow Agreement, the
Agent may withhold two percent (2%) of any Term Loans until the Indemnity Escrow Agreement is
executed and effective, at which time the Agents shall deposit such withheld funds with the Escrow
Agent to be held under such agreement (with such deposit credited against the Borrower’s
obligations under the first sentence of this Section 2.10). When all outstanding Obligations under
this Agreement have been fully satisfied, any remaining funds held under the Indemnity Escrow
Agreement shall be distributed to the Borrower, for its own account.

ARTICLE IV

FEES, PAYMENTS AND OTHER COMPENSATION

          Section 4.01 Audit and Collateral Monitoring Fees. The Borrower acknowledges that pursuant to
Section 7.01, representatives of the Agents may visit the Borrower and/or conduct audits,
inspections, valuations and/or field examinations of the Borrower at any time and from time to time
in a manner so as to not unduly disrupt the business of the Borrower. The Borrower agrees to pay
(i) $1,500 per day per examiner plus the examiner’s out-of-pocket costs and reasonable expenses
incurred in connection with all such visits, audits, inspections, appraisals, valuations and field
examinations and (ii) the cost of all visits, audits, inspections, appraisals, valuations and field
examinations conducted by a third party on behalf of the Agents.

          Section 4.02 Payments; Computations and Statements. (a) The Borrower will make each payment under
this Agreement not later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the day when due, in lawful money
of the United States of America and in immediately available funds, to the Collection Account. All
payments received by the Administrative Agent after 12:00 noon (New York City time) on any Business
Day will be credited to the Loan Account on the next succeeding Business Day. All payments shall be
made by the Borrower without set-off, counterclaim, deduction or other defense to the Agents and
the Lenders. Except as provided in Section 2.02, after receipt, the Administrative Agent will
promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal to the
Lender (or if there is more than one Lender hereunder, ratably to the Lenders in accordance with
their Pro Rata Shares) and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any
Lender to such Lender, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement,
provided that the Administrative Agent will cause to be distributed all interest and fees received
from or for the account of the Borrower not less than once each month and in any event promptly
after receipt thereof. The Lender and the Borrower hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to,
and the Administrative Agent may, from time to time, charge the Loan Account of the Borrower with
any amount due and payable by the Borrower under any Loan Document. Each of the Lender and the
Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent shall have the right to make such charges whether or
not any Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or whether any of the
conditions precedent in Section 5.02 have been satisfied. Any amount charged to the Loan Account of
the Borrower shall be deemed an Obligation hereunder, which shall bear interest at the rate
applicable to Term Loans. The Lender and the Borrower confirm that any charges which the
Administrative Agent may so make to the Loan Account of the Borrower as herein provided will be
made as an accommodation to the Borrower and solely at the Administrative Agent’s discretion,
provided that the Administrative Agent shall from time to time upon the request of the Collateral
Agent, charge the Loan Account of the Borrower with any amount due and payable under any Loan
Document. Whenever any payment to be made under any such Loan Document shall be stated to be due on
a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and
such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or fees, as
the case may be. All computations of fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of
a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last
day) occurring in the period for which such fees are payable. Each determination by the
Administrative Agent of

37

 

an interest rate or fees hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes in the
absence of manifest error.

               (b) The Administrative Agent shall provide the Borrower, promptly after the end of each
calendar month, a summary statement (in the form from time to time used by the Administrative
Agent) of the opening and closing daily balances in the Loan Account of the Borrower during such
month, the amounts and dates of all Term Loans made to the Borrower during such month, the amounts
and dates of all payments on account of the Term Loans to the Borrower during such month and the
Term Loans to which such payments were applied, the amount of interest accrued on the Term Loans to
the Borrower during such month, and the amount and nature of any charges to the Loan Account made
during such month on account of fees, commissions, expenses and other Obligations. All entries on
any such statement shall be presumed to be correct and, thirty (30) days after the same is sent,
shall be final and conclusive absent manifest error.

          Section 4.03 Sharing of Payments, Etc. In the event there is more than one Lender hereunder, except
as provided in Section 2.02 hereof, if any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary,
involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) on account of any
Obligation in excess of its ratable share of payments on account of similar obligations obtained by
all the Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such participations in
such similar obligations held by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to
share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all
or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such
purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender
the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender’s
ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender’s required repayment to
(ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender of any interest or other amount paid
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 4.03 may, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all of its rights (including the Lender’s right of
set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of
the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

          Section 4.04 Apportionment of Payments. Subject to Section 2.02 hereof:

               (a) all payments of principal and interest in respect of outstanding Term Loans, all payments
of fees (other than the audit and collateral monitoring fee provided for in Section 4.01) and all
other payments in respect of any other Obligations, shall be paid to the Lender (or in the event
there is more than one Lender hereunder, shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent among such
of the Lenders as are entitled thereto, in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares or
otherwise as provided herein or, in respect of payments not made on account of Term Loans, as
designated by the Person making payment when the payment is made).

               (b) After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, the
Administrative Agent may, and upon the direction of the Lender (or in the

38

 

event there is more than one Lender hereunder, upon the direction of the Required Lenders)
shall, apply all proceeds of the Collateral (including all Collections other than Salvage
Collections), subject to the provisions of this Agreement, (i) first, to pay the Servicer
(other than the Initial Servicer) an amount equal to the accrued and unpaid Servicing Fees then due
and payable in accordance with the Transaction Documents until paid in full (to the extent not
covered by the Indemnity Escrow or otherwise); (ii) second, to pay the Obligations in
respect of any fees, expense reimbursements, indemnities and other amounts then due and payable to
the Agents until paid in full; (iii) third, to pay the Insurance Collateral Agent an amount
equal to any fees, expense reimbursements, indemnities and other amounts then due and payable to
the Insurance Collateral Agent in accordance with the Transaction Documents until paid in full (to
the extent not covered by the Indemnity Escrow or otherwise); (iv) fourth, to pay the
Obligations in respect of any fees (including the Applicable Prepayment Premium), expense
reimbursements, indemnities and other amounts then due and payable to the Lender (or Lenders if
there is more than one Lender hereunder) until paid in full; (v) fifth, to pay interest
then due and payable in respect of the Collateral Agent Advances until paid in full (to the extent
not covered by the Indemnity Escrow or otherwise); (vi) sixth, to pay principal of the
Collateral Agent Advances until paid in full (to the extent not covered by the Indemnity Escrow or
otherwise), (vii) seventh, to pay interest then due and payable in respect of the related
Tranche until paid in full, (viii) eighth, to pay principal of the related Tranche until
paid in full, (ix) ninth, to pay interest then due and payable in respect of all other
Tranches until paid in full, (x) tenth, to pay principal of all other Tranches until paid
in full, (xi) eleventh, to pay the Servicer if the Servicer is the Initial Servicer an
amount equal to the accrued and unpaid Servicing Fees then due and payable in accordance with the
Transaction Documents until paid in full (to the extent not covered by the Indemnity Escrow or
otherwise), (xii) twelfth, the payment of all other Obligations then due and payable (to
the extent not covered by the Indemnity Escrow or otherwise), and (xiii) thirteenth, any
remaining proceeds from the Collateral on such date shall be paid to the Borrower, for its own
account.

               (c) In each instance, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Section
4.04(b) shall not be deemed to apply to any payment by the Borrower specified by the Borrower to
the Administrative Agent to be for the payment of the Obligations then due and payable under any
provision of this Agreement or the prepayment of all or part of the principal of a Tranche in
accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 2.05.

               (d) For purposes of Section 4.04(b), “paid in full” means payment in cash of all amounts owing
under the Loan Documents and the Transaction Documents according to the terms thereof, including
loan fees, servicing fees, professional fees, interest (and specifically including interest accrued
after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding), default interest, interest on interest, and
expense reimbursements, whether or not same would be or is allowed or disallowed in whole or in
part in any Insolvency Proceeding.

               (e) In the event of a direct conflict between the priority provisions of this Section 4.04 and
other provisions contained in any other Loan Document, it is the intention of the parties hereto
that both such priority provisions in such documents shall be read together and construed, to the
fullest extent possible, to be in concert with each other. In the event of any actual,
irreconcilable conflict that cannot be resolved as aforesaid, the terms and provisions of this
Section 4.04 shall control and govern.

39

 

          Section 4.05 Increased Costs and Reduced Return. (a) If any Lender or any Agent shall have
determined that the adoption or implementation of, or any change in, any law, rule, treaty or
regulation, or any policy, guideline or directive of, or any change in, the interpretation or
administration thereof by, any court, central bank or other administrative or Governmental
Authority, or compliance by any Lender or any Agent or any Person controlling any such Agent or any
such Lender with any directive of, or guideline from, any central bank or other Governmental
Authority or the introduction of, or change in, any accounting principles applicable to any Lender
or any Agent or any Person controlling any such Agent or any such Lender (in each case, whether or
not having the force of law) (each a “Change in Law”), shall (i) subject such Agent or any
Lender, or any Person controlling such Agent or any Lender to any tax, duty or other charge with
respect to this Agreement or any Loan made by such Agent or any Lender, or change the basis of
taxation of payments to such Agent or any Lender or any Person controlling such Agent or any Lender
of any amounts payable hereunder (except for taxes on the overall net income of such Agent or any
Lender or any Person controlling such Agent or any Lender), (ii) impose, modify or deem applicable
any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against any Loan or against assets of or held
by, or deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, such Agent or any Lender or any
Person controlling such Agent or such Lender or (iii) impose on such Agent or such Lender or any
Person controlling such Agent or any Lender any other condition regarding this Agreement or any
Loan, and the result of any event referred to in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above shall be to
increase the cost to such Agent or the Lender of making any Loan or agreeing to make any Loan or to
reduce any amount received or receivable by such Agent or any Lender hereunder, then, upon demand
by such Agent or the Lender, the Borrower shall pay to such Agent or such Lender such additional
amounts as will compensate such Agent or such Lender for such increased costs or reductions in
amount.

               (b) If any Agent or any Lender shall have determined that any Change in Law either (i) affects
or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Agent or the
Lender or any Person controlling such Agent or such Lender, and such Agent or such Lender
determines that the amount of such capital is increased as a direct or indirect consequence of any
Term Loans made or maintained, such Agent’s or the Lender’s or such other controlling Person’s
other obligations hereunder, or (ii) has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on
such Agent’s or such Lender’s such other controlling Person’s capital to a level below that which
such Agent or such Lender or such controlling Person could have achieved but for such circumstances
as a consequence of any Loans made or maintained or any agreement to make Term Loans or such
Agent’s or such Lender’s or such other controlling Person’s other obligations hereunder (in each
case, taking into consideration, such Agent’s or the Lender’s or such other controlling Person’s
policies with respect to capital adequacy), then, upon demand by such Agent or the Lender, the
Borrower shall pay to such Agent or such Lender from time to time such additional amounts as will
compensate such Agent or such Lender for such cost of maintaining such increased capital or such
reduction in the rate of return on such Agent’s or such Lender’s or such other controlling Person’s
capital.

               (c) All amounts payable under this Section 4.05 shall bear interest from the date that is ten
(10) days after the date of demand by any Agent or any Lender until payment in full to such Agent
or such Lender at an annual interest rate of 15%. A certificate of such Agent or the Lender
claiming compensation under this Section 4.05, specifying the event herein above described and the
nature of such event shall be submitted by such Agent or such

40

 

Lender to the Borrower, setting forth the additional amount due and an explanation of the
calculation thereof, and such Agent’s or such Lender’s reasons for invoking the provisions of this
Section 4.05, and shall be final and conclusive absent manifest error.

ARTICLE VIII

MANAGEMENT, COLLECTION AND STATUS OF COLLATERAL

          Section 8.01 Collections; Management of Collateral. (a) The Borrower shall (i) establish and
maintain cash management services of a type and on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Agents at
the bank set forth on Schedule 8.01, the “Cash Management Bank”, and shall take such
reasonable steps to enforce, collect and receive all amounts owing on the Insurance Premium Loans
of the Borrower, and (ii) deposit or cause to be deposited promptly, and in any event no later than
the next Business Day after the date of receipt thereof, all proceeds in respect of any Collateral
and all Collections (of a nature susceptible to a deposit in a bank account) and other amounts
received by the Borrower (including payments made by any Premium Finance Borrower directly to the
Borrower) into the Collection Account.

               (b) On or prior to the Effective Date, the Borrower shall, with respect to each of the
Operating Account, the Reserve Account and the Collection Account, deliver to the Collateral Agent
a Cash Management Agreement.

               (c) All amounts received in the Collection Account shall at the Administrative Agent’s
direction be wired each Business Day into the Administrative Agent’s Account to be applied pursuant
to Section 2.05(d) or Section 4.04(b), as applicable.

               (d) So long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrowers
may amend Schedule 8.01 to add or replace the Cash Management

69

 

Bank, the Collection Account, the Reserve Account or the Operating Account; provided, however, that (i) such
prospective Cash Management Bank shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and the
Collateral Agent shall have consented in writing in advance to the opening of such Collection
Account, Reserve Account and the Operating Account with the prospective Cash Management Bank, and
(ii) prior to the time of the opening of such Collection Account, such Reserve Account and such
Operating Account, the Borrower and such prospective Cash Management Bank shall have executed and
delivered to the Collateral Agent a Cash Management Agreement with respect to each of the
Collection Account, the Reserve Account and the Operating Account. The Borrower shall close its
Collection Account, its Reserve Account and its Operating Account (and establish replacement cash
management accounts in accordance with the foregoing sentence) promptly and in any event within 30
days of notice from the Collateral Agent that the creditworthiness of any Cash Management Bank is
no longer acceptable in the Collateral Agent’s reasonable judgment, or that the operating
performance, funds transfer, or availability procedures or performance of such Cash Management Bank
with respect to the Collection Account, the Reserve Account or the Operating Account or the
Collateral Agent’s liability under any Cash Management Agreement with such Cash Management Bank is
no longer acceptable in the Collateral Agent’s reasonable judgment.

               (e) The Collection Account and the Reserve Account shall each be a cash collateral account,
with all cash, checks and similar items of payment in such accounts securing payment of the
Obligations, and in which the Borrower is hereby deemed to have granted a Lien to Collateral Agent
for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders. All checks, drafts, notes, money orders,
acceptances, cash and other evidences of Indebtedness received directly by the Borrower from any of
the Premium Finance Borrowers or any other Person, as proceeds from the Insurance Premium Loans
acquired by the Borrower (actually or beneficially through a participation) with proceeds from the
Loan or as proceeds of any other Collateral shall be held by the Borrower in trust for the Agents
and the Lenders and if of a nature susceptible to a deposit in a bank account, upon receipt be
deposited by the Borrower in original form and no later than the next Business Day after receipt
thereof into the Collection Account; provided, however, all Collections received
directly by the Borrower shall be held by the Borrower in trust for the Agents and the Lenders and
upon receipt be deposited by the Borrower in original form and no later than the next Business Day
after receipt thereof into the Administrative Agent’s Account. The Borrower shall not commingle
such collections with the proceeds of any assets not included in the Collateral. No checks, drafts
or other instrument received by the Administrative Agent shall constitute final payment to the
Administrative Agent unless and until such instruments have actually been collected.

               (f) After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral
Agent may send a notice of assignment and/or notice of the Lenders’ security interest to any and
all Insurance Premium Borrowers, the Collateral Value Insurer, the Contingent Collateral Value
Insurer or third parties holding or otherwise concerned with any of the Collateral, and thereafter
the Collateral Agent or its designee shall have the sole right to collect the Insurance Premium
Loans acquired by the Borrower (actually or beneficially through a participation) with proceeds
from the Loan and/or take possession of the Collateral and the books and records relating thereto.
The Borrower shall not, without prior written consent of the Collateral Agent, grant any extension
of time of payment of any such Insurance Premium Loan or payments under the Collateral Value Policy
or the Contingent Collateral Value Policy,

70

 

compromise or settle any such Insurance Premium Loan for less than the full amount thereof, release, in whole or in part, any Person or property liable for
the payment thereof, or allow any credit or discount whatsoever thereon.

               (g) The Borrower hereby appoints each Agent or its designee on behalf of such Agent as the
Borrower’s attorney-in-fact with power exercisable during the continuance of an Event of Default to
endorse the Borrower’s name upon any notes, acceptances, checks, drafts, money orders or other
evidences of payment relating to the Insurance Premium Loans acquired by the Borrower (actually or
beneficially through a participation) with proceeds from the Loan, the Collateral Value Policy and
the Contingent Collateral Value Policy, to sign the Borrower’s name on any invoice or bill of
lading relating to any of such Insurance Premium Loans and the Collateral Value Policy and the
Contingent Collateral Value Policy, drafts against Insurance Premium Borrowers with respect to such
Insurance Premium Loans, the Collateral Value Policy and the Contingent Collateral Value Policy,
assignments and verifications of the such Insurance Premium Loans, the Collateral Value Policy and
the Contingent Collateral Value Policy and notices to Insurance Premium Borrowers with respect to
such Insurance Premium Loans, the Collateral Value Insurer with respect to the Collateral Value
Policy and the Contingent Collateral Value Insurer with respect to the Contingent Collateral Value
Policy, to send verification of such Insurance Premium Loans, the Collateral Value Policy and the
Contingent Collateral Value Policy, and to notify the Postal Service authorities to change the
address for delivery of mail addressed to the Borrower to such address as such Agent or its
designee may designate and to do all other acts and things necessary to carry out this Agreement.
All acts of said attorney or designee are hereby ratified and approved, and said attorney or
designee shall not be liable for any acts of omission or commission (other than acts of omission or
commission constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final judgment of
a court of competent jurisdiction), or for any error of judgment or mistake of fact or law; this
power being coupled with an interest is irrevocable until all of the Loans and other Obligations
under the Loan Documents are paid in full and all of the Loan Documents are terminated.

               (h) Nothing herein contained shall be construed to constitute any Agent as agent of the
Borrower for any purpose whatsoever, and the Agents shall not be responsible or liable for any
shortage, discrepancy, damage, loss or destruction of any part of the Collateral wherever the same
may be located and regardless of the cause thereof (other than from acts of omission or commission
constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final judgment of a court of
competent jurisdiction). The Agents shall not, under any circumstance or in any event whatsoever,
have any liability for any error or omission or delay of any kind occurring in the settlement, collection or payment of any of the Insurance
Premium Loans acquired by the Borrower (actually or beneficially through a participation) with
proceeds from the Loan or any instrument received in payment thereof or for any damage resulting
therefrom (other than acts of omission or commission constituting gross negligence or willful
misconduct as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). The Agents, by
anything herein or in any assignment or otherwise, do not assume any of the obligations under any
contract or agreement assigned to any Agent and shall not be responsible in any way for the
performance by the Borrower of any of the terms and conditions thereof.

71

 

               (i) If any Insurance Premium Loan acquired by the Borrower (actually or beneficially through a
participation) with proceeds from the Loan includes a charge for any tax payable to any
Governmental Authority, each Agent is hereby authorized (but in no event obligated) in its
discretion to pay the amount thereof to the proper taxing authority for the Borrower’s account and
to charge the Borrower therefor. The Borrower shall notify the Agents if any Insurance Premium Loan
acquired by the Borrower (actually or beneficially through a participation) with proceeds from the
Loan includes any taxes due to any such Governmental Authority and, in the absence of such notice,
the Agents shall have the right to retain the full proceeds of such Insurance Premium Loan and
shall not be liable for any taxes that may be due by reason of the sale and delivery creating such
Insurance Premium Loan.

               (j) Notwithstanding any other terms set forth in the Loan Documents, the rights and remedies
of the Agents and the Lenders herein provided, and the obligations of the Borrower set forth
herein, are cumulative of, may be exercised singly or concurrently with, and are not exclusive of,
any other rights, remedies or obligations set forth in any other Loan Document or as provided by
law.

          Section 8.02 Collateral Custodian. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default or
Event of Default, the Collateral Agent or its designee may at any time and from time to time employ
and maintain on the premises of the Borrower a custodian selected by the Collateral Agent or its
designee who shall have full authority to do all acts necessary to protect the Agents’ and the
Lenders’ interests. The Borrower hereby agrees to cooperate with any such custodian and to do
whatever the Collateral Agent or its designee may reasonably request to preserve the Collateral.
All costs and expenses incurred by the Collateral Agent or its designee by reason of the employment
of the custodian shall be the responsibility of the Borrower and charged to the Loan Account.

Value Insurer or the Contingent Collateral Value Insurer or the Collateral Value Insurer or the
Contingent Collateral Value Insurer shall contest, defend against or otherwise dispute, in any
manner, such effectiveness, validity, binding nature or enforceability, or otherwise assert any
defense to a claim made thereunder (including without limitation any defense, exception or
exclusion to payment permitted by the terms of such Collateral Value Policy or the Contingent
Collateral Value Policy);

               (t) any event or circumstance shall have occurred that may reasonably be expected to cause any
Subject Imperial Affiliate to suffer materially adverse regulatory consequences (including as may
be applicable to its insurance premium finance, life settlement or related business);

               (u) any event or circumstance under Section V.A or Section V.B of the Collateral Value Policy
shall have occurred or the Borrower, the Originator or any of their Affiliates commits a Prohibited
Act (as defined in the Collateral Value Policy); or

               (v) an event or development occurs which could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect (including, without limitation, any change or proposed change in any relevant law,
rule or regulation, in any Applicable Non-Licensed State or Applicable Licensed State or otherwise,
which (i) makes the financing, origination or transfer of any Insurance Premium Loan or life
insurance policy in accordance with the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents and/or the
Transaction Documents unlawful or economically or procedurally disadvantageous or (ii) limits,
alters or otherwise compromises, could be reasonably expected to compromise, the insurable interest
in the related Life Insurance Policy, as contemplated by the Loan Documents, the Transaction Documents and the Loan Document
Package);

               (w) any default under the Imperial Limited Guaranty; or

               (x) Borrower or the Servicer shall fail to submit a properly completed and duly executed Proof
of Loss (as defined in the Collateral Value Policy) to the insurer under the Collateral Value
Policy or, following the occurrence of a Credit Event, the Contingent Collateral Value Policy,
prior to the date by which a Proof of Loss must be submitted to the insurer to avoid a loss being
excluded from coverage under such policy.

          then, and in any such event, the Collateral Agent may, and shall at the request of the
Required Lenders, by notice to the Borrower, (i) terminate or reduce all Commitments, whereupon all
Commitments shall immediately be so terminated or reduced, (ii) declare all or any portion of the
Loans then outstanding to be due and payable, whereupon all or such portion

76

 

of the aggregate principal of all Loans, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, all fees and all other amounts
payable under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall become due and payable immediately
together with the payment of the Applicable Prepayment Premium (if any), without presentment,
demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the
Borrower and (iii) exercise any and all of its other rights and remedies under applicable law,
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that upon the
occurrence of any Event of Default described in subsection (g) or (h) of this Section 9.01 with
respect to the Borrower, without any notice to the Borrower or any other Person or any act by any
Agent or any Lender, all Commitments shall automatically terminate and all Loans then outstanding,
together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, all fees and all other amounts due under
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall become due and payable automatically and
immediately, without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are expressly
waived by the Borrower.

ARTICLE X

AGENTS

          Section 10.01 Appointment. The Lender (and each subsequent maker of any Loan by its making thereof)
hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to
perform the duties of each such Agent as set forth in this Agreement including: (i) to receive on
behalf of the Lender any payment of principal of or interest on the Loans outstanding hereunder and
all other amounts accrued hereunder for the account of the Lender and paid to such Agent, and,
subject to Section 2.02 of this Agreement, to distribute promptly to the Lender (and if at the time
there is more than one Lender hereunder, to each Lender its Pro Rata Share) of all payments so
received; (ii) to distribute to the Lender copies of all material notices and agreements received
by such Agent and not required to be delivered to the Lender pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement, provided that the Agents shall not have any liability to the Lender for any Agent’s
inadvertent failure to distribute any such notices or agreements to the Lender; (iii) to maintain,
in accordance with its customary business practices, ledgers and records reflecting the status of
the Obligations, the Term Loans, and related matters and to maintain, in accordance with its
customary business practices, ledgers and records reflecting the status of the Collateral and related matters; (iv) to execute or file
any and all financing or similar statements or notices, amendments, renewals, supplements,
documents, instruments, proofs of claim, notices and other written agreements with respect to this
Agreement or any other Loan Document; (v) to make the Term Loans and Collateral Agent Advances, for
such Agent or on behalf of the Lender as provided in this Agreement or any other Loan Document;
(vi) to perform, exercise, and enforce any and all other rights and remedies of the Lender with
respect to the Borrower, the Obligations, or otherwise related to any of same to the extent
reasonably incidental to the exercise by such Agent of the rights and remedies specifically
authorized to be exercised by such Agent by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document;
(vii) to incur and pay such fees necessary or appropriate for the performance and fulfillment of
its functions and powers pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document; and (viii) subject
to Section 10.03 of this Agreement, to take such action as such Agent deems appropriate on its
behalf to administer the Loans and the Loan Documents and to exercise such other powers delegated
to such Agent by the terms hereof or the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the
power to give or to refuse to give notices, waivers,

77

 

consents, approvals and instructions and the power to make or to refuse to make determinations and calculations) together with such powers as
are reasonably incidental thereto to carry out the purposes hereof and thereof. As to any matters
not expressly provided for by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without
limitation, enforcement or collection of the Loans), the Agents shall not be required to exercise
any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and
shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the
Lender (or if at the time there is more than one Lender hereunder, the Required Lenders), and such
instructions of the Lender (or the Required Lenders) shall be binding upon all Lenders and all
makers of Loans.

          Section 10.02 Nature of Duties. The Agents shall have no duties or responsibilities except those
expressly set forth in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents. The duties of the Agents
shall be mechanical and administrative in nature. The Agents shall not have by reason of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document a fiduciary relationship in respect of the Lender. Nothing in
this Agreement or any other Loan Document, express or implied, is intended to or shall be construed
to impose upon the Agents any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document
except as expressly set forth herein or therein. The Lender shall make its own independent
investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Borrower in connection with the making
and the continuance of the Loans hereunder and shall make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness
of the Borrower and the value of the Collateral, and the Agents shall have no duty or
responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide the Lender with any credit or
other information with respect thereto, whether coming into their possession before the initial
Loan hereunder or at any time or times thereafter, provided that, upon the reasonable request of a
Lender, each Agent shall provide to the Lender any documents or reports delivered to such Agent by
the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document. If any Agent seeks
the consent or approval of the Lender (or the Required Lenders, as applicable) to the taking or
refraining from taking any action hereunder, such Agent shall send notice thereof to the Lender (or
all Lenders, as applicable). Each Agent shall promptly notify the Lender any time that the Lender
has instructed such Agent to act or refrain from acting pursuant hereto.

          Section 10.03 Rights, Exculpation, Etc. The Agents and their directors, officers, agents or
employees shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by them under or in
connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, except for their own gross negligence
or willful misconduct as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agents (i) may treat the payee of any Term
Loan as the owner thereof until the Collateral Agent receives written notice of the assignment or
transfer thereof, pursuant to Section 12.07 hereof, signed by such payee and in form satisfactory
to the Collateral Agent; (ii) may consult with legal counsel (including, without limitation,
counsel to any Agent or counsel to the Borrower), independent public accountants, and other experts
selected by any of them and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good
faith by any of them in accordance with the advice of such counsel or experts; (iii) make no
warranty or representation to any Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender for any
statements, certificates, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents; (iv) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as
to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or
the other Loan Documents on the part of any Person, the

78

 

existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default, or to inspect the Collateral or other property (including, without
limitation, the books and records) of any Person; (v) shall not be responsible to the Lender for
the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto
or thereto; and (vi) shall not be deemed to have made any representation or warranty regarding the
existence, value or collectibility of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the
Collateral Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by the Borrower in connection
therewith, nor shall the Agents be responsible or liable to the Lender for any failure to monitor
or maintain any portion of the Collateral. The Agents shall not be liable for any apportionment or
distribution of payments made in good faith pursuant to Section 4.04, and if any such apportionment
or distribution is subsequently determined to have been made in error the sole recourse of any
Lender to whom payment was due but not made, shall be to recover from other Lenders any payment in
excess of the amount which they are determined to be entitled. The Agents may at any time request
instructions from the Lender with respect to any actions or approvals which by the terms of this
Agreement or of any of the other Loan Documents the Agents are permitted or required to take or to
grant, and if such instructions are promptly requested, the Agents shall be absolutely entitled to
refrain from taking any action or to withhold any approval under any of the Loan Documents until
they shall have received such instructions from the Lender (or if at such time there is more than
one Lender hereunder, the Required Lenders). Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have
any right of action whatsoever against any Agent as a result of such Agent acting or refraining
from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the
instructions of the Lender (or if at such time there is more than one Lender hereunder, the
Required Lenders).

          Section 10.04 Reliance. Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any written notices, statements,
certificates, orders or other documents or any telephone message believed by it in good faith to be
genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person, and with respect to
all matters pertaining to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents and its duties
hereunder or thereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it.

          Section 10.05 Indemnification. To the extent that any Agent is not reimbursed and indemnified by the
Borrower, the Lender will reimburse and indemnify such Agent from and against any and all
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses,
advances or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or
asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any of the
other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by such Agent under this Agreement or any of
the other Loan Documents, (in proportion to each Lender’s Pro Rata Share if at such time there is
more than one Lender hereunder), including, without limitation, advances and disbursements made
pursuant to Section 10.08; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for
any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments,
suits, costs, expenses, advances or disbursements for which there has been a final judicial
determination that such liability resulted from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful
misconduct. The obligation of the Lender under this Section 10.05 shall survive the payment in full
of the Loans and the termination of this Agreement.

          Section 10.06 Agents Individually. Each Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend
money to, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other

79

 

business with the Borrower as if it were not acting as an Agent pursuant hereto without any duty to account to the Lender.

          Section 10.07 Successor Agent. (a) Each Agent may resign from the performance of all its functions
and duties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at any time by giving at least thirty (30)
Business Days’ prior written notice to the Borrower and the Lender. Such resignation shall take
effect upon the acceptance by a successor Agent of appointment pursuant to clauses (b) and (c)
below or as otherwise provided below.

               (b) Upon any such notice of resignation, the Lender (or if at such time there is more than one
Lender hereunder, the Required Lenders) shall appoint a successor Agent. Upon the acceptance of any
appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed
to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and
the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents. After any Agent’s resignation hereunder as an Agent, the provisions of this
ARTICLE X shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it
was an Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

               (c) If a successor Agent shall not have been so appointed within said thirty (30) Business Day
period, the retiring Agent, with the consent of the other Agent shall then appoint a successor
Agent who shall serve as an Agent until such time, if any, as the Lender (or if at such time there
are more than one Lender party hereto, Required Lenders) with the consent of the other Agent,
appoint a successor Agent as provided above.

          Section 10.08 Collateral Matters.

               (a) The Collateral Agent may from time to time make such disbursements and advances
(“Collateral Agent Advances”) which the Collateral Agent, in its sole discretion, deems
necessary or desirable to preserve, protect, prepare for sale or lease or dispose of the Collateral or any portion thereof, to enhance the likelihood or maximize the
amount of repayment by the Borrower of the Loans and other Obligations or to pay any other amount
chargeable to the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation,
costs, fees and expenses as described in Section 12.04. Without limiting the foregoing, the
Collateral Agent shall be permitted at anytime to make Collateral Agent Advances to pay insurance
premiums due under the Life Insurance Policies. The Collateral Agent Advances shall be repayable on
demand and be secured by the Collateral. The Collateral Agent Advances shall constitute Obligations
hereunder which may be charged to the Loan Account in accordance with Section 4.02. The Collateral
Agent shall notify the Lender and the Borrower in writing of each such Collateral Agent Advance,
which notice shall include a description of the purpose of such Collateral Agent Advance. Without
limitation to its obligations pursuant to Section 10.05, the Lender agrees that it shall make
available to the Collateral Agent, upon the Collateral Agent’s demand, in Dollars in immediately
available funds, the amount of each such Collateral Agent Advance (or if there is more than one
Lender hereunder, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share). If such funds are not made available to the
Collateral Agent by the Lender, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to recover such funds on
demand from the Lender, together with interest thereon for each day from the date such payment was
due until the date such

80

 

amount is paid to the Collateral Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate for three
Business Days and thereafter at the Reference Rate.

               (b) The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Collateral Agent, at its option and in its
discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by the Collateral Agent upon any Collateral upon
termination of the Total Commitment and payment and satisfaction of all Loans, Reimbursement
Obligations, Letter of Credit Obligations, and all other Obligations in accordance with the terms
hereof; or constituting property being sold or disposed of in the ordinary course of the Borrower’s
business or otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents;
or constituting property in which the Borrower owned no interest at the time the Lien was granted
or at any time thereafter; or if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Lender. Upon
request by the Collateral Agent at any time, the Lender will confirm in writing the Collateral
Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section
10.08(b).

               (c) Without in any manner limiting the Collateral Agent’s authority to act without any
specific or further authorization or consent by the Lender (as set forth in Section 10.08(b)), the
Lender agrees to confirm in writing, upon request by the Collateral Agent, the authority to release
Collateral conferred upon the Collateral Agent under Section 10.08(b). Upon receipt by the
Collateral Agent of confirmation from the Lender of its authority to release any particular item or
types of Collateral, and upon prior written request by the Borrower, the Collateral Agent shall
(and is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Lender to) execute such documents as may be necessary
to evidence the release of the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Agents
and the Lender upon such Collateral; provided, however, that (i) the Collateral
Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in the Collateral Agent’s
opinion, would expose the Collateral Agent to liability or create any obligations or entail any
consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty, and (ii) such
release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any Lien upon (or
obligations of the Borrower in respect of) all interests in the Collateral retained by the
Borrower.

               (d) The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Lender to assure that the
Collateral exists or is owned by the Borrower or is cared for, protected or insured or has been
encumbered or that the Lien granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement or any other
Loan Document has been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or
enforced or is entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular
manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the
rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Collateral Agent in this Section 10.08
or in any other Loan Document.

          Section 10.09 Agency for Perfection. Each Agent and the Lender hereby appoints each other Agent as
agent and bailee for the purpose of perfecting the security interests in and liens upon the
Collateral in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code, can be
perfected only by possession or control (or where the security interest of a secured party with
possession or control has priority over the security interest of another secured party) and each
Agent hereby acknowledges that it holds possession of or otherwise controls any such Collateral for
the benefit of the Agents and the Lender as secured party.

81

 

Should the Administrative Agent or any Lender obtain possession or control of any such Collateral, the Administrative Agent or such Lender
shall notify the Collateral Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Collateral Agent’s request
therefor shall deliver such Collateral to the Collateral Agent or in accordance with the Collateral
Agent’s instructions. In addition, the Collateral Agent shall also have the power and authority
hereunder to appoint such other sub-agents as may be necessary or required under applicable state
law or otherwise to perform its duties and enforce its rights with respect to the Collateral and
under the Loan Documents. The Borrower by its execution and delivery of this Agreement hereby
consents to the foregoing.

          Section 10.10 No Reliance on any Agent’s Customer Identification Program. The Lender acknowledges
and agrees that neither the Lender, nor any of its Affiliates, participants or assignees, may rely
on any Agent to carry out the Lender’s, Affiliate’s, participant’s or assignee’s customer
identification program, or other obligations required or imposed under or pursuant to the USA
PATRIOT Act or the regulations thereunder, including the regulations contained in 31 CFR 103.121
(as hereafter amended or replaced, the “CIP Regulations”), or any other Anti-Terrorism Law,
including any programs involving any of the following items relating to or in connection with the
Borrower, their Affiliates or their agents, the Loan Documents or the transactions hereunder or
contemplated hereby: (1) any identity verification procedures, (2) any recordkeeping, (3)
comparisons with government lists, (4) customer notices or (5) other procedures required under the
CIP Regulations or such other laws. The Lender, Affiliate, participant or assignee subject to
Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act will perform the measures necessary to satisfy its own
responsibilities under the CIP Regulations.

ARTICLE XI

SERVICER TERMINATION EVENTS

          Section 11.01 Servicer Termination Event. If a Servicer Termination Event has occurred and is
continuing, the Agents, by notice in writing to the Servicer and the Borrower, may terminate the
Servicing Agreement pursuant to the terms set forth in the Servicing Agreement. On and after the
effective time of any notice of termination, a replacement servicer approved in writing by the Agents shall be the successor Servicer, as more fully set forth in
a replacement servicing agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Agents.

waiver or consent shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender, reduce the principal of, or
interest on, the Term Loans payable to any Lender, reduce the amount of any fee payable for the

Insurer”, “Contingent Collateral Value Insurer”, “Collections”, “Coverage Certificate”, “Covered
Loan Amount” or “Eligible Insurance Premium Loan”, in each case, without the written consent of
each Lender then party hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no

84

 

amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by an Agent, affect the
rights or duties of such Agent under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the parties hereto hereby agree that any amendment, modification or waiver of, or
consent with respect to the definitions of “Collateral Value Insurer”, “Collateral Value Policy”,
“Collections”, “Coverage Certificate”, “Person” and “Salvage Collections” in Section 1.01, Section
2.05(e), Section 12.19 and the last three sentences in this Section 12.02(a) shall require the
written consent of the Collateral Value Insurer (prior to the occurrence of a Credit Event or the
written consent of the Contingent Collateral Value Insurer (following the occurrence of a Credit
Event) to be effective. In all events, copies of any amendments to this Agreement, any other Loan
Document or any Transaction Document shall be promptly provided by the Borrower to the Collateral
Value Insurer following execution thereof. Each of the parties hereto agrees that the Collateral
Value Insurer (prior to the occurrence of a Credit Event) or the Contingent Collateral Value
Insurer (following the occurrence of a Credit Event) is a third party beneficiary solely with

Agreement.

               (b) In the event there is more than one Lender, if any action to be taken by the Lenders
requires the unanimous consent, authorization, or agreement of all of the Lenders, and a Lender
(the “Holdout Lender”) fails to give its consent, authorization, or agreement, then the
Collateral Agent, upon at least 5 Business Days prior irrevocable notice to the Holdout Lender, may
permanently replace the Holdout Lender with one or more substitute Lenders (each, a
“Replacement Lender”), and the Holdout Lender shall have no right to refuse to be replaced
hereunder. Such notice to replace the Holdout Lender shall specify an effective date for such
replacement, which date shall not be later than 15 Business Days after the date such notice is
given. Prior to the effective date of such replacement, the Holdout Lender and each Replacement
Lender shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance, subject only to the Holdout Lender
being repaid its share of the outstanding Obligations without any premium or penalty of any kind
whatsoever. If the Holdout Lender shall refuse or fail to execute and deliver any such Assignment
and Acceptance prior to the effective date of such replacement, the Holdout Lender shall be deemed
to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Acceptance. The replacement of any Holdout
Lender shall be made in accordance with the terms of Section 12.07(b). Until such time as the
Replacement Lenders shall have acquired all of the Obligations, the Commitments, and the other
rights and obligations of the Holdout Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the
Holdout Lender shall remain obligated to make its Pro Rata Share of Loans.

          Section 12.03 No Waiver; Remedies, Etc. No failure on the part of any Agent or the Lender to
exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall
operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right under any Loan
Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The
rights and remedies of the Agents and the Lender provided herein and in the other Loan Documents
are cumulative and are in addition to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies provided by
law. The rights of the Agents and the Lender under any Loan Document against any party thereto are
not conditional or contingent on any attempt by the Agents and the Lender to exercise any of their
rights under any other Loan Document against such party or against any other Person.

85

 

          Section 12.04 Expenses; Taxes; Attorneys’ Fees. The Borrower will pay on demand, all costs and
expenses incurred by or on behalf of each Agent (and, in the case of clauses (b) through (m) below,
each Lender at such time party hereto), regardless of whether the transactions contemplated hereby
are consummated, including, without limitation, reasonable fees, costs, client charges and expenses

rights under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, (d) the defense of any claim or action

this Agreement, any other Loan Document, the Agents’ or the Lenders’ claims against the Borrower,
or any and all matters in connection therewith, (e) the commencement or defense of, or intervention
in, any court proceeding arising from or related to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (f)
the filing of any petition, complaint, answer, motion or other pleading by any Agent or any Lender,
or the taking of any action in respect of the Collateral or other security, in connection with this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, (g) the protection, collection, lease, sale, taking
possession of or liquidation of, any Collateral or other security in connection with this Agreement
or any other Loan Document, (h) any attempt to enforce any Lien or security interest in any

attempt to collect from the Borrower, or (i) the receipt by any Agent or any Lender of any advice
from professionals with respect to any of the foregoing. Without limitation of the foregoing or any
other provision of any Loan Document: (x) the Borrower agrees to pay all stamp, document, transfer,
recording or filing taxes or fees and similar impositions now or hereafter determined by any Agent
or any Lender to be payable in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and the
Borrower agrees to save each Agent and each Lender harmless from and against any and all present or
future claims, liabilities or losses with respect to or resulting from any omission to pay or delay
in paying any such taxes, fees or impositions, (y) the Borrower agrees to pay all broker fees that

          Section 12.05 Right of Set-off. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of
Default, any Agent or any Lender may, and is hereby authorized to, at any time and from time to
time, without notice to the Borrower (any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower) and
to the fullest extent permitted by law, set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special,
time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other Indebtedness at any time owing by
such Agent or such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the

86

 

Borrower against any and all obligations of the Borrower either now or hereafter existing
under any Loan Document, irrespective of whether or not such Agent or such Lender shall have made
any demand hereunder or thereunder and although such obligations may be contingent or unmatured.
Each Agent and each Lender agrees to notify the Borrower promptly after any such set-off and
application made by such Agent or such Lender provided that the failure to give such notice shall
not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of the Agents and the Lenders
under this Section 12.05 are in addition to the other rights and remedies (including other rights
of set-off) which the Agents and the Lenders may have under this Agreement or any other Loan
Documents of law or otherwise.

          Section 12.06 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in
any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition
or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining portions hereof or affecting the validity or
enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

          Section 12.07 Assignments and Participations.

               (a) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit
of the Borrower and each Agent and the Lender and its respective successors and assigns;
provided, however, that Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights
hereunder or under the other Loan Documents without the prior written consent of each Lender then
party hereto and any such assignment without such Lenders’ prior written consent shall be null and
void.

               (b) Any Lender may with the written consent of the Collateral Agent, assign to one or more
other lenders or other entities all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement
with respect to all or a portion of its Term Loan Commitment and any Term Loan made by it, and (ii)
the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent, for its
acceptance, an Assignment and Acceptance, together with any promissory note subject to such
assignment and such parties shall deliver to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the
Collateral Agent, a processing and recordation fee of $3,000 (except the payment of such fee shall
not be required in connection with an assignment by a Lender to a Lender, an Affiliate of such
Lender or a Related Fund of such Lender) and (iii) no written consent of the Collateral Agent shall
be required if such assignment is in connection with any merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, or
other disposition of all or any substantial portion of the business or loan portfolio of such
Lender. Upon such execution, delivery and acceptance, from and after the effective date specified
in each Assignment and Acceptance and recordation on the Register, which effective date shall be at
least 3 Business Days after the delivery thereof to the Collateral Agent (or such shorter period as
shall be agreed to by the Collateral Agent and the parties to such assignment), (A) the assignee
thereunder shall become a “Lender” hereunder and, in addition to the rights and obligations
hereunder held by it immediately prior to such effective date, have the rights and obligations
hereunder that have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and (B) the
assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been
assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released
from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance
covering all or the remaining portion of an

87

 

assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be
a party hereto).

               (c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender and the
assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows:
(i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender makes no
representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties
or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the
execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement
or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto; (ii) the assigning Lender makes no
representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of
the Borrower or the performance or observance by the Borrower of any of its obligations under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that
it has received a copy of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other
documents and information it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to
enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without
reliance upon the assigning Lender, any Agent or any Lender and based on such documents and
information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in
taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (v) such assignee
appoints and authorizes the Agents to take such action as agents on its behalf and to exercise such
powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Agents by the
terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental hereto and
thereto; and (vi) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of
the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are required to
be performed by it as a Lender.

               (d) The Administrative Agent shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the
Borrower, maintain, or cause to be maintained at the Payment Office, a copy of each Assignment and
Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a register (the “Register”) for the
recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitments of, and the principal
amount of the Loans (and stated interest thereon) (the “Registered Loans”). The entries in
the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the
Borrower, the Agents and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register
as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for
inspection by the Borrower and any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon
reasonable prior notice.

               (e) Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of a completed Assignment and Acceptance, and
subject to any consent required from the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 12.07(b) (which
consent of the Collateral Agent must be evidenced by the Collateral Agent’s execution of an
acceptance to such Assignment and Acceptance), the Administrative Agent shall accept such
assignment and record the information contained therein in the Register.

               (f) A Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) may be assigned
or sold in whole or in part only by registration of such assignment or sale

88

 

on the Register (and each registered note shall expressly so provide). Any assignment or sale
of all or part of such Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) may
be effected only by registration of such assignment or sale on the Register, together with the
surrender of the registered note, if any, evidencing the same duly endorsed by (or accompanied by a
written instrument of assignment or sale duly executed by) the holder of such registered note,
whereupon, at the request of the designated assignee(s) or transferee(s), one or more new
registered notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the designated
assignee(s) or transferee(s). Prior to the registration of assignment or sale of any Registered
Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same), the Agents shall treat the Person in
whose name such Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) is
registered on the Register as the owner thereof for the purpose of receiving all payments thereon,
notwithstanding notice to the contrary.

               (g) In the event that any Lender sells participations in a Registered Loan, such Lender shall,
acting for this purpose as an agent on behalf of the Borrower, maintain, or cause to be maintained,
a register on which it enters the name of all participants in the Registered Loans held by it and
the principal amount (and stated interest thereon) of the portion of the Registered Loan that is
the subject of the participation (the “Participant Register”). A Registered Loan (and the
registered note, if any, evidencing the same) may be participated in whole or in part only by
registration of such participation on the Participant Register (and each registered note shall
expressly so provide). Any participation of such Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any,
evidencing the same) may be effected only by the registration of such participation on the
Participant Register. The Participant Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower
and any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

               (h) Any Non-U.S. Lender who purchases or is assigned or participates in any portion of such
Registered Loan shall comply with Section 2.08(d).

               (i) Any Lender may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities in or to all or
a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents
(including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitments, the Loans made by it);
provided, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including
without limitation, its Commitment hereunder) and the other Loan Documents shall remain unchanged;
(ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of
such obligations, and the Borrower and the Agents and any other Lenders shall continue to deal
solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the Lender’s rights and obligations under
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; and (iii) a participant shall not be entitled to
require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except (A) action directly
effecting an extension of the maturity dates or decrease in the principal amount of the Loans, (B)
action directly effecting an extension of the due dates or a decrease in the rate of interest
payable on the Loans or the fees payable under this Agreement, or (C) actions directly effecting a
release of all or a substantial portion of the Collateral or the Borrower (except as set forth in
Section 10.08 of this Agreement or any other Loan Document). The Borrower agrees that each
participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.08 and Section 4.05 of this Agreement
with respect to its participation in any portion of the Total Term Loan Commitment and the Loans as
if it was a Lender.

89

 

          Section 12.08 Counterparts. This Agreement 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 Agreement by telefacsimile or electronic mail shall be equally as
effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement. Any party delivering
an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile or electronic mail also shall deliver an
original executed counterpart of this Agreement but the failure to deliver an original executed
counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Agreement.
The foregoing shall apply to each other Loan Document mutatis mutandis.

          Section 12.09 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (UNLESS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED
TO THE CONTRARY IN ANOTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN RESPECT OF SUCH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT) SHALL BE GOVERNED
BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE
AND TO BE PERFORMED IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

          Section 12.10 CONSENT TO JURISDICTION; SERVICE OF PROCESS AND VENUE. ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING
WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE
OF NEW YORK IN THE COUNTY OF NEW YORK OR OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN
DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND, BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE BORROWER HEREBY
IRREVOCABLY ACCEPTS IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE JURISDICTION OF
THE AFORESAID COURTS. THE BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY APPOINTS THE SECRETARY OF STATE OF THE STATE
OF NEW YORK AS ITS AGENT FOR SERVICE OF PROCESS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING AND
FURTHER IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS OUT OF ANY OF THE AFOREMENTIONED COURTS AND
IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY THE MAILING OF COPIES THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL,
POSTAGE PREPAID, TO THE BORROWER AT ITS ADDRESS FOR NOTICES AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 12.01 AND TO
THE SECRETARY OF STATE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, SUCH SERVICE TO BECOME EFFECTIVE TEN (10) DAYS
AFTER SUCH MAILING. THE BORROWER AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING
SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY
OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF THE AGENTS AND THE LENDERS
TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO COMMENCE LEGAL PROCEEDINGS OR
OTHERWISE PROCEED AGAINST THE BORROWER IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. THE BORROWER HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND
IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR
HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE JURISDICTION OR 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. TO THE EXTENT

90

 

THAT THE BORROWER HAS OR HEREAFTER MAY ACQUIRE ANY IMMUNITY FROM JURISDICTION OF ANY COURT OR
FROM ANY LEGAL PROCESS (WHETHER THROUGH SERVICE OR NOTICE, ATTACHMENT PRIOR TO JUDGMENT, ATTACHMENT
IN AID OF EXECUTION OR OTHERWISE) WITH RESPECT TO ITSELF OR ITS PROPERTY, THE BORROWER HEREBY
IRREVOCABLY WAIVES SUCH IMMUNITY IN RESPECT OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER
LOAN DOCUMENTS.

          Section 12.11 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL, ETC. THE BORROWER, EACH AGENT AND THE LENDER HEREBY WAIVES ANY
RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM CONCERNING ANY RIGHTS UNDER THIS
AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR UNDER ANY AMENDMENT, WAIVER, CONSENT, INSTRUMENT,
DOCUMENT OR OTHER AGREEMENT DELIVERED OR WHICH IN THE FUTURE MAY BE DELIVERED IN CONNECTION
THEREWITH, OR ARISING FROM ANY FINANCING RELATIONSHIP EXISTING IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT,
AND AGREES THAT ANY SUCH ACTION, PROCEEDINGS OR COUNTERCLAIM SHALL BE TRIED BEFORE A COURT AND NOT
BEFORE A JURY. THE BORROWER CERTIFIES THAT NO OFFICER, REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY
AGENT OR THE LENDER HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT ANY AGENT OR ANY LENDER WOULD
NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVERS.
THE BORROWER HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE AGENTS AND
THE LENDER ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT.

          Section 12.12 Consent by the Agents and Lender. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein to
the contrary or in any other Loan Document, if the consent, approval, satisfaction, determination,
judgment, acceptance or similar action (an “Action”) of any Agent or any Lender shall be
permitted or required pursuant to any provision hereof or any provision of any other agreement to
which the Borrower is a party and to which any Agent or any Lender has succeeded thereto, such
Action shall be required to be in writing and may be withheld or denied by such Agent or such
Lender, in its sole discretion, with or without any reason, and without being subject to question
or challenge on the grounds that such Action was not taken in good faith.

          Section 12.13 No Party Deemed Drafter. Each of the parties hereto agrees that no party hereto shall
be deemed to be the drafter of this Agreement.

          Section 12.14 Reinstatement; Certain Payments. If any claim is ever made upon any Agent or any
Lender for repayment or recovery of any amount or amounts received by such Agent or such Lender in
payment or on account of any of the Obligations, such Agent or such Lender shall give prompt notice
of such claim to each other Agent and the Borrower, and if such Agent or such Lender repays all or
part of such amount by reason of (i) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative
body having jurisdiction over such Agent or such Lender or any of its property, or (ii) any good
faith settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by such Agent or such Lender with any
such claimant, then and in such event the Borrower agrees that (A) any such judgment, decree,
order, settlement or compromise shall be binding upon it

91

 

notwithstanding the cancellation of any Indebtedness hereunder or under the other Loan
Documents or the termination of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and (B) it shall be and
remain liable to such Agent or such Lender hereunder for the amount so repaid or recovered to the
same extent as if such amount had never originally been received by such Agent or such Lender.

          Section 12.15 Indemnification.

               (a) General Indemnity. In addition to the Borrower’s other Obligations under this
Agreement, the Borrower agrees to defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless each Agent, each
Lender and all of their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys, consultants and
agents (collectively called the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all losses,
damages, liabilities, obligations, penalties, fees, reasonable costs and expenses (including,
without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses) incurred by such Indemnitees,
whether prior to or from and after the Effective Date, whether direct, indirect or consequential,
as a result of or arising from or relating to or in connection with any of the following: (i) the
negotiation, preparation, execution or performance or enforcement of this Agreement, any other Loan
Document or of any other document executed in connection with the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, (ii) any Agent’s or any Lender’s furnishing of funds to the Borrower for the account of
the Borrower under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the
management of any such Loans, (iii) any matter relating to the financing transactions contemplated
by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or by any document executed in connection with the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or (iv) any claim,
litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any
Indemnitee is a party thereto (collectively, the “Indemnified Matters”); provided,
however, that Borrower shall not have any obligation to any Indemnitee under this
subsection (a) for any Indemnified Matter caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
such Indemnitee, as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

               (b) To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in this
Section 12.15 may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, the
Borrower shall contribute the maximum portion which it is permitted to pay and satisfy under
applicable law, to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Matters incurred by the
Indemnitees. The indemnities set forth in this Section 12.15 shall survive the repayment of the
Obligations and discharge of any Liens granted under the Loan Documents.

          Section 12.16 Records. The unpaid principal of and interest on the Loans, the interest rate or rates
applicable to such unpaid principal and interest, the duration of such applicability, the
Commitments, and the accrued and unpaid fees payable pursuant to Section 2.06 hereof, including,
without limitation, the Applicable Prepayment Premium, shall at all times be ascertained from the
records of the Agents, which shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error.

          Section 12.17 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed
by the Borrower, each Agent and the Lender and when the conditions precedent set forth in Section
5.01 hereof have been satisfied or waived in writing by the Agents,

92

 

and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, each Agent and
each Lender, and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower shall not have
the right to assign their rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent
of each Agent and the Lender, and any assignment by any Lender shall be governed by Section 12.07
hereof.

          Section 12.18 Interest. It is the intention of the parties hereto that each Agent and each Lender
shall conform strictly to usury laws applicable to it. Accordingly, if the transactions
contemplated hereby or by any other Loan Document would be usurious as to any Agent or any Lender
under laws applicable to it (including the laws of the United States of America and the State of
New York or any other jurisdiction whose laws may be mandatorily applicable to such Agent or the
Lender notwithstanding the other provisions of this Agreement), then, in that event,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any
agreement entered into in connection with or as security for the Obligations, it is agreed as
follows: (i) the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes interest under law applicable to
any Agent or any Lender that is contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received by such Agent
or such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or agreements or otherwise in
connection with the Obligations shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount allowed by
such applicable law, any excess shall be canceled automatically and if theretofore paid shall be
credited by such Agent or such Lender on the principal amount of the Obligations (or, to the extent
that the principal amount of the Obligations shall have been or would thereby be paid in full,
refunded by such Agent or such Lender, as applicable, to the Borrower); and (ii) in the event that
the maturity of the Obligations is accelerated by reason of any Event of Default under this
Agreement or otherwise, or in the event of any required or permitted prepayment, then such
consideration that constitutes interest under law applicable to any Agent or any Lender may never
include more than the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law, and excess interest, if any,
provided for in this Agreement or otherwise shall be canceled automatically by such Agent or such
Lender, as applicable, as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid,
shall be credited by such Agent or such Lender, as applicable, on the principal amount of the
Obligations (or, to the extent that the principal amount of the Obligations shall have been or
would thereby be paid in full, refunded by such Agent or the Lender to the Borrower). All sums paid
or agreed to be paid to any Agent or any Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of sums due
hereunder shall, to the extent permitted by law applicable to such Agent or such Lender, be
amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of the Loans until payment in
full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of any Loans hereunder does not exceed the
maximum amount allowed by such applicable law. If at any time and from time to time (x) the amount
of interest payable to any Agent or any Lender on any date shall be computed at the Highest Lawful
Rate applicable to such Agent or such Lender pursuant to this Section 12.18 and (y) in respect of
any subsequent interest computation period the amount of interest otherwise payable to such Agent
or such Lender would be less than the amount of interest payable to such Agent or such Lender
computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Agent or such Lender, then the amount of
interest payable to such Agent or such Lender in respect of such subsequent interest computation
period shall continue to be computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Agent or such
Lender until the total amount of interest payable to such Agent or such Lender shall equal the
total amount of interest which would have been payable to such Agent or such

93

 

Lender if the total amount of interest had been computed without giving effect to this Section
12.18.

          For purposes of this Section 12.18, the term “applicable law” shall mean that law in effect
from time to time and applicable to the loan transaction between the Borrower, on the one hand, and
the Agents and the Lenders, on the other, that lawfully permits the charging and collection of the
highest permissible, lawful non-usurious rate of interest on such loan transaction and this
Agreement, including laws of the State of New York and, to the extent controlling, laws of the
United States of America.

          The right to accelerate the maturity of the Obligations does not include the right to
accelerate any interest that has not accrued as of the date of acceleration.

          Section 12.19 Confidentiality. Each Agent and the Lender agrees (on behalf of itself and each of its
affiliates, directors, officers, employees and representatives) to use reasonable precautions to
keep confidential, in accordance with its customary procedures for handling confidential
information of this nature and in accordance with safe and sound practices of comparable commercial
finance companies, any non-public information supplied to it by the Borrower pursuant to this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents which is identified in writing by the Borrower as being
confidential at the time the same is delivered to such Person (and which at the time is not, and
does not thereafter become, publicly available or available to such Person from another source not
known to be subject to a confidentiality obligation to such Person not to disclose such
information), provided that nothing herein shall limit the disclosure of any such
information (i) to the extent required by any Requirement of Law or judicial process or as
otherwise requested by any Governmental Authority, (ii) to counsel for any Agent or any Lender,
(iii) to examiners, auditors, accountants or Securitization parties; provided, that the
Agents and the Lenders shall not be entitled to disclose the identity of the Collateral Value
Insurer or the Contingent Collateral Value Insurer to the Rating Agencies or, except as provided
below, provide a copy of the Collateral Value Policy to the Rating Agencies, in each case, without
the prior written consent of the Collateral Value Insurer or the Contingent Collateral Value
Insurer, as applicable; provided, further, that the Agents and the Lenders shall be
permitted to disclose a copy of the Collateral Value Policy and the Contingent Collateral Value
Policy to the Rating Agencies and to investors (or prospective investors) and their counsel or
other advisors of any indebtedness issued by the Lender that relates to this Financing Agreement
and the Eligible Insurance Premium Loans financed hereunder so long as the identity of the
Collateral Value Insurer and the Contingent Collateral Value Insurer is redacted, (iv) in
connection with any litigation to which any Agent or the Lender is a party or (v) to any assignee
or participant (or prospective assignee or participant) so long as such assignee or participant (or
prospective assignee or participant) first agrees, in writing, to be bound by confidentiality
provisions similar in substance to this Section 12.19.

          Section 12.20 Public Disclosure. The Borrower agrees that neither it nor any of its Affiliates will
now or in the future issue any press release or other public disclosure using the name of an Agent,
the Lender or any of their respective Affiliates or referring to this Agreement or any other Loan
Document without the prior written consent of such Agent or such Lender, except to the extent that
the Borrower or such Affiliate is required to do so under applicable law (in which event, the
Borrower or such Affiliate will consult with such Agent or the Lender

94

 

before issuing such press release or other public disclosure). The Borrower hereby authorizes
each Agent and the Lender, after consultation with the Borrower, to advertise the closing of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and to make appropriate announcements of the financial
arrangements entered into among the parties hereto, as such Agent or the Lender shall deem
appropriate, including, without limitation, announcements commonly known as tombstones, in such
trade publications, business journals, newspapers of general circulation and to such selected
parties as such Agent or the Lender shall deem appropriate.

          Section 12.21 Integration. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, reflects the
entire understanding of the parties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and shall
not be contradicted or qualified by any other agreement, oral or written, before the date hereof.

          Section 12.22 USA PATRIOT Act. The Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the
requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title 111 of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26,
2001)) (as amended, the “USA PATRIOT Act”), a Lender may be required to obtain, verify and
record information that identifies the entities composing the Borrower, which information includes
the name and address of each such entity and other information that will allow the Lender to
identify the entities composing the Borrower in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act. The Borrower
agrees to take such action and execute, acknowledge and deliver at its sole cost and expense, such
instruments and documents as any Lender may reasonably require from time to time in order to enable
such Lender to comply with the USA PATRIOT Act.

contravene any Requirement of Law or any contractual restriction binding on or otherwise affecting
the Grantor or any of its properties and will not result in, or require the creation of, any Lien
upon or with respect to any of its properties.

               (j) No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any
Governmental Authority or other regulatory body, or any other Person, is required for (i) the due
execution, delivery and performance by the Grantor of this Agreement, (ii) the grant by the Grantor
of the security interest purported to be created hereby in the Collateral or (iii) the exercise by
the Collateral Agent of any of its rights and remedies hereunder, except, in the case of this
clause (iii), as may be required in connection with any sale of any Pledged Interests by laws
affecting the offering and sale of securities generally. No authorization or approval or other
action by, and no notice to or filing with, any Governmental Authority or any other Person, is
required for the perfection of the security interest purported to be created hereby in the
Collateral, except (A) for the filing under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the
applicable jurisdiction of the financing statements described in Schedule V hereto, all of which

taking of such actions, and (C the Collateral Agent’s having possession of all Documents,
Chattel Paper, Instruments and cash constituting Collateral (subclauses (A), (B) and (C), each a

               (k) This Agreement creates a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in favor of the
Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in the Collateral, as security for the
Secured Obligations. The Perfection Requirements result in the perfection of such security
interests. Such security interests are, or in the case of Collateral in which the Grantor obtains
rights after the date hereof, will be, perfected, first priority security interests, subject in
priority only to the Permitted Liens that, pursuant to the definition of the term “Permitted
Liens”, are not prohibited from being prior to the Liens in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the
benefit of the Secured Parties, and the recording of such instruments of assignment described
above. Such Perfection Requirements and all other action necessary or desirable to perfect and
protect such security interest have been duly made or taken, except for (i) the Collateral Agent’s
having possession of all Instruments, Documents, Chattel Paper and cash constituting Collateral
after the date hereof, (ii) the Collateral Agent’s having control of all Deposit Accounts,
Electronic Chattel Paper, Investment Property or Letter-of-Credit Rights constituting Collateral

aware of any such pending claims, except for such claims described in Schedule VI.

               (m) The Grantor has irrevocably opted into Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code
(collectively, the “Certificated Entities”). Such interests are securities for purposes of
Article 8 of any relevant Uniform Commercial Code.

          SECTION 6. Covenants as to the Collateral. So long as any of the Secured Obligations
(whether or not due) shall remain unpaid or any Lender shall have any Commitment under the
Financing Agreement, unless the Collateral Agent shall otherwise consent in writing:

               (a) Further Assurances. The Grantor will at its expense, at any time and from time to
time, promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents and take all further
action that may be necessary or reasonably desirable or that the Collateral Agent may request in
order (i) to perfect and protect, or maintain the perfection of, the security interest and Lien
purported to be created hereby; (ii) to enable the Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its
rights and remedies hereunder in respect of the Collateral; or (iii) otherwise to effect the
purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation: (A) marking conspicuously all Chattel
Paper and Instruments and, at the request of the Collateral Agent, all of its Records pertaining to
the Collateral with a legend, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral
Agent, indicating that such Chattel Paper, Instrument or Collateral is subject to the security
interest created hereby, (B) if any Account shall be evidenced by a Promissory Note or other
Instrument or Chattel Paper, delivering and pledging to the Collateral Agent such Promissory Note,
other Instrument or Chattel Paper, duly endorsed and accompanied by executed instruments of
transfer or assignment, all in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, (C)

request in order to perfect and preserve the security interest purported to be created hereby, (E)
delivering to the Collateral Agent irrevocable proxies in respect of the Pledged Interests, (F)
furnishing to the Collateral Agent from time to time statements and schedules further identifying
and describing the Collateral and such other reports in connection with the Collateral as the
Collateral Agent may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail, (G) if any Collateral shall be
in the possession of a third party, notifying such Person of the Collateral Agent’s security
interest created hereby and obtaining a written agreement, in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, providing access to such Collateral in order to remove such
Collateral from such premises during an Event of Default and acknowledging that such Person holds
possession of the Collateral for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, (H) if at any time after the
date hereof, the Grantor acquires or holds any Commercial Tort Claim, immediately notifying the
Collateral Agent in a writing signed by the Grantor setting forth a brief description of such
Commercial Tort Claim and granting to the Collateral Agent a security interest therein and in the
proceeds thereof, which writing shall incorporate the provisions hereof and shall be in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, and (I) taking all actions required by
law in any relevant Uniform Commercial Code jurisdiction, or by other law as applicable in any
foreign jurisdiction. No Grantor shall take or fail to take any action which would in any manner
impair the validity or enforceability of the Collateral Agent’s security interest in and Lien on
any Collateral.

               (b) Taxes, Etc. The Grantor agrees to pay promptly when due all property and other
taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon, and all claims (including
claims for labor, materials and supplies) against, the Collateral, except to the extent otherwise
provided in the Financing Agreement.

               (c) Insurance. The Grantor will, at its own expense, maintain insurance with respect
to the Collateral in accordance with the terms of the Financing Agreement. The Grantor will, if so
requested by the Collateral Agent, deliver to the Collateral Agent original or duplicate insurance
policies and, as often as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request, a report of a reputable
insurance broker with respect to such insurance. The Grantor will also, at the request of the
Collateral Agent, execute and deliver instruments of assignment of such insurance policies and
cause the respective insurers to acknowledge notice of such assignment.

               (d) Provisions Concerning the Insurance Premium Loans. The Grantor will, except as
otherwise provided in this subsection (d), continue to collect, at its own expense, all amounts due
or to become due under the Insurance Premium Loans. In connection with such collections, the
Grantor may (and, at the Collateral Agent’s direction, will) take such action as the Grantor (or,
if applicable, the Collateral Agent) may reasonably deem necessary or advisable to enforce
collection or performance of the Insurance Premium Loans; provided, however, that
the Collateral Agent shall have the right at any time, upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, to notify the Premium Finance Borrower or obligors under

Exh. A-10

 

any Insurance Premium Loans of the assignment of such Insurance Premium Loans to the
Collateral Agent and to direct such Premium Finance Borrower or obligors to make payment of all
amounts due or to become due to the Grantor thereunder directly to the Collateral Agent or its
designated agent and, upon such notification and at the expense of the Grantor and to the extent
permitted by law, to enforce collection of any such Insurance Premium Loans and to adjust, settle
or compromise the amount or payment thereof, in the same manner and to the same extent as the
Grantor might have done. After receipt by the Grantor of a notice from the Collateral Agent that
the Collateral Agent has notified, intends to notify, or has enforced or intends to enforce the
Grantor’s rights against the Premium Finance Borrower or obligors under any Premium Finance
Borrower as referred to in the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, (A) all amounts and
proceeds (including Instruments) received by the Grantor in respect of the Premium Finance Loans
shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent hereunder, shall be segregated
from other funds of the Grantor and shall be forthwith paid over to the Collateral Agent or its
designated agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be held as
cash collateral and either (x) credited to the Loan Account so long as no Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing or (y) if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, applied as specified in Section 9(d) hereof, and (B) the Grantor will not adjust,
settle or compromise the amount or payment of any Insurance Premium Loan or release wholly or
partly any Premium Finance Borrower or obligor thereof or allow any credit or discount thereon. The
Collateral Agent may (in its sole and absolute discretion) direct any or all of the banks and
financial institutions with which the Grantor either maintains a Deposit Account or a lockbox or
deposits the proceeds of any Insurance Premium Loan to send immediately to the Collateral Agent or
its designated agent by wire transfer (to such account as the Collateral Agent shall specify, or in
such other manner as the Collateral Agent shall direct) all or a portion of such securities, cash,
investments and other items held by such institution. Any such securities, cash, investments and
other items so received by the Collateral Agent or its designated agent shall (in the sole and
absolute discretion of the Collateral Agent) be held as additional Collateral for the Secured
Obligations or distributed in accordance with Section 9 hereof.

               (e) Provisions Concerning the Pledged Interests. The Grantor will

any Pledged Issuer, (B) any securities convertible voluntarily by the holder thereof or

into, or exchangeable for, any such shares of Equity Interests or (C) any warrants, options,
contracts or other commitments entitling any Person to purchase or otherwise acquire any such

Trademark Office, United States Copyright Office or any court or similar office of any country)
regarding the Grantor’s ownership of any Intellectual Property, its right to register the same, or
its right to keep and maintain the same.

Secured Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash after the termination of each
Lender’s Commitment and each of the Loan Documents.

               (c) For the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent to exercise rights and remedies
hereunder, at such time as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights
and remedies, and for no other purpose, the Grantor hereby (i) grants to the Collateral Agent an
irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to
the Grantor) to use, assign, license or sublicense any Intellectual Property now or hereafter owned
by the Grantor, wherever the same may be located, including in such license reasonable access to
all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs
used for the compilation or printout thereof; and (ii) assigns to the Collateral Agent, to the
extent assignable, all of its rights to any Intellectual Property now or hereafter licensed or used
by the Grantor. Notwithstanding anything contained

Exh. A-17

 

herein to the contrary, but subject to the provisions of the Financing Agreement that limit
the right of the Grantor to dispose of its property and Section 6(g) hereof, so long as no Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Grantor may exploit, use, enjoy, protect,
license, sublicense, assign, sell, dispose of or take other actions with respect to the
Intellectual Property in the ordinary course of its business. In furtherance of the foregoing,
unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent shall from
time to time, upon the request of the Grantor, execute and deliver any instruments, certificates or
other documents, in the form so requested, which the Grantor shall have certified are appropriate
(in the Grantor’s judgment) to allow it to take any action permitted above (including
relinquishment of the license provided pursuant to this clause (c) as to any Intellectual
Property). Further, upon the date on which all of the Secured Obligations have been indefeasibly
paid in full in cash after the termination of each Lender’s Commitment and each of the Loan
Documents, the Collateral Agent (subject to Section 13(e) hereof) shall release and reassign to the
Grantor all of the Collateral Agent’s right, title and interest in and to the Intellectual
Property, all without recourse, representation or warranty whatsoever and at the Grantor’s sole
expense. The exercise of rights and remedies hereunder by the Collateral Agent shall not terminate
the rights of the holders of any licenses or sublicenses theretofore granted by the Grantor in
accordance with the second sentence of this clause (c). The Grantor hereby releases the Collateral
Agent from any claims, causes of action and demands at any time arising out of or with respect to
any actions taken or omitted to be taken by the Collateral Agent under the powers of attorney
granted herein other than actions taken or omitted to be taken through the Collateral Agent’s gross
negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final determination of a court of competent
jurisdiction.

               (d) If the Grantor fails to perform any agreement or obligation contained herein, the
Collateral Agent may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement or obligation, in the
name of the Grantor or the Collateral Agent, and the expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in
connection therewith shall be payable by the Grantor pursuant to Section 10 hereof and shall be
secured by the Collateral.

               (e) The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest
in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Other than the
exercise of reasonable care to assure the safe custody of any Collateral in its possession and the
accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty as
to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior
parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral and shall be relieved of all
responsibility for any Collateral in its possession upon surrendering it or tendering surrender of
it to the Grantor (or whomsoever shall be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of
competent jurisdiction shall direct). The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised
reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral in its possession if such
Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Collateral Agent accords its
own property, it being understood that the Collateral Agent shall not have responsibility for
ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or
other matters relating to any Collateral, whether or not the Collateral Agent has or is deemed to
have knowledge of such matters. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable or responsible for any
loss or damage to any of the Collateral, or for any diminution in the value thereof, by reason of
the act or omission of any warehouseman, carrier, forwarding agency, consignee or other agent or
bailee selected by the Collateral Agent in good faith.

Exh. A-18

 

               (f) The Collateral Agent may at any time in its discretion (i) without notice to the Grantor,
transfer or register in the name of the Collateral Agent or any of its nominees any or all of the
Pledged Interests, subject only to the revocable rights of the Grantor under Section 7(a) hereof,
and (ii) exchange certificates or Instruments constituting Pledged Interests for certificates or
Instruments of smaller or larger denominations.

          SECTION 9. Remedies Upon Default. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing:

               (a) The Collateral Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to any other
rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all of the rights and
remedies of a secured party upon default under the Code (whether or not the Code applies to the
affected Collateral), and also may (i) take absolute control of the Collateral, including, without
limitation, transfer into the Collateral Agent’s name or into the name of its nominee or nominees
(to the extent the Collateral Agent has not theretofore done so) and thereafter receive, for the
benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Lenders, all payments made thereon, give all consents,
waivers and ratifications in respect thereof and otherwise act with respect thereto as though it
were the outright owner thereof, (ii) require the Grantor to, and the Grantor hereby agrees that it
will at its expense and upon request of the Collateral Agent forthwith, assemble all or part of the
Collateral as directed by the Collateral Agent and make it available to the Collateral Agent at a
place or places to be designated by the Collateral Agent that is reasonably convenient to both
parties, and the Collateral Agent may enter into and occupy any premises owned or leased by the
Grantor where the Collateral or any part thereof is located or assembled for a reasonable period in
order to effectuate the Collateral Agent’s rights and remedies hereunder or under law, without
obligation to the Grantor in respect of such occupation, and (iii) without notice except as
specified below and without any obligation to prepare or process the Collateral for sale, (A) sell
the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of the
Collateral Agent’s offices, at any exchange or broker’s board or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or
for future delivery, and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as the Collateral Agent
may deem commercially reasonable and/or (B) lease, license or otherwise dispose of the Collateral
or any part thereof upon such terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable. The
Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale or any other disposition of the Collateral shall
be required by law, at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Grantor of the
time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other disposition of
the Collateral is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Collateral Agent shall
not be obligated to make any sale or other disposition of Collateral regardless of notice of sale
having been given. The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by
announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be
made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. The Grantor hereby waives any claims
against the Collateral Agent and the Lenders arising by reason of the fact that the price at which
the Collateral may have been sold at a private sale was less than the price which might have been
obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the Secured Obligations, even if
the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer the Collateral to more
than one offeree, and waives all rights that the Grantor may have to require that all or any part
of the Collateral be marshaled upon any sale (public or private) thereof. The Grantor hereby
acknowledges that (i) any such sale of the Collateral by the Collateral Agent shall be made without
warranty, (ii) the

Exh. A-19

 

Collateral Agent may specifically disclaim any warranties of title, possession, quiet
enjoyment or the like, (iii) the Collateral Agent may bid (which bid may be, in whole or in part,
in the form of cancellation of indebtedness), if permitted by law, for the purchase, lease, license
or other disposition of the Collateral or any portion thereof for the account of the Collateral
Agent (on behalf of itself and the Lenders) and (iv) such actions set forth in clauses (i), (ii)
and (iii) above shall not adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any such sale of the
Collateral. In addition to the foregoing, (i) upon written notice to the Grantor from the
Collateral Agent, the Grantor shall cease any use of the Intellectual Property or any trademark,
patent or copyright similar thereto for any purpose described in such notice; (ii) the Collateral
Agent may, at any time and from time to time, upon five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to
the Grantor, license, whether general, special or otherwise, and whether on an exclusive or
non-exclusive basis, any of the Intellectual Property, throughout the universe for such term or
terms, on such conditions, and in such manner, as the Collateral Agent shall in its sole discretion
determine; and (iii) the Collateral Agent may, at any time, pursuant to the authority granted in
Section 8 hereof (such authority being effective upon the occurrence and during the continuance of
an Event of Default), execute and deliver on behalf of the Grantor, one or more instruments of
assignment of the Intellectual Property (or any application or registration thereof), in form
suitable for filing, recording or registration in any country.

               (b) In the event that the Collateral Agent determines to exercise its right to sell all or any
part of the Pledged Interests pursuant to Section 9(a) hereof, the Grantor will, at the Grantor’s
expense and upon request by the Collateral Agent: (i) execute and deliver, and cause each issuer of
such Pledged Interests and the directors and officers thereof to execute and deliver, all such
instruments and documents, and do or cause to be done all such other acts and things, as may be
necessary or, in the reasonable opinion of the Collateral Agent, advisable to register such Pledged
Interests under the provisions of the Securities Act, and to cause the registration statement
relating thereto to become effective and to remain effective for such period as prospectuses are
required by law to be furnished, and to make all amendments and supplements thereto and to the
related prospectus which, in the reasonable opinion of the Collateral Agent, are necessary or
advisable, all in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and
regulations of the SEC applicable thereto, (ii) cause each issuer of such Pledged Interests to
qualify such Pledged Interests under the state securities or “Blue Sky” laws of each jurisdiction,
and to obtain all necessary governmental approvals for the sale of the Pledged Interests, as
requested by the Collateral Agent, (iii) cause each Pledged Issuer to make available to its
securityholders, as soon as practicable, an earnings statement which will satisfy the provisions of
Section 11(a) of the Securities Act, and (iv) do or cause to be done all such other acts and things
as may be necessary to make such sale of such Pledged Interests valid and binding and in compliance
with applicable law. The Grantor acknowledges the impossibility of ascertaining the amount of
damages which would be suffered by the Collateral Agent by reason of the failure by the Grantor to
perform any of the covenants contained in this Section 9(b) and, consequently, agrees that, if the
Grantor fails to perform any of such covenants, it shall pay, as liquidated damages and not as a
penalty, an amount equal to the value of the Pledged Interests on the date the Collateral Agent
demands compliance with this Section 9(b); provided, however, that the payment of
such amount shall not release the Grantor from any of its obligations under any of the other Loan
Documents.

Exh. A-20

 

               (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9(b) hereof, the Grantor recognizes that the
Collateral Agent may deem it impracticable to effect a public sale of all or any part of the
Pledged Shares or any other securities constituting Pledged Interests and that the Collateral Agent
may, therefore, determine to make one or more private sales of any such securities to a restricted
group of purchasers who will be obligated to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities
for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof.
The Grantor acknowledges that any such private sale may be at prices and on terms less favorable to
the seller than the prices and other terms which might have been obtained at a public sale and,
notwithstanding the foregoing, agrees that such private sales shall be deemed to have been made in
a commercially reasonable manner and that the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to delay
the sale of any such securities for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer of such
securities to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act. The Grantor
further acknowledges and agrees that any offer to sell such securities which has been (i) publicly
advertised on a bona fide basis in a newspaper or other publication of general circulation in the
financial community of New York, New York (to the extent that such an offer may be so advertised
without prior registration under the Securities Act) or (ii) made privately in the manner described
above to not less than fifteen bona fide offerees shall be deemed to involve a
“public disposition” for the purposes of Section 9-610(c) of the Code (or any successor or similar,
applicable statutory provision) as then in effect in the State of New York, notwithstanding that
such sale may not constitute a “public offering” under the Securities Act, and that the Collateral
Agent may, in such event, bid for the purchase of such securities.

               (d) Any cash held by the Collateral Agent (or its agent or designee) as Collateral and all
Cash Proceeds received by the Collateral Agent (or its agent or designee) in respect of any sale of
or collection from, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Collateral may, in the
discretion of the Collateral Agent, be held by the Collateral Agent (or its agent or designee) as
collateral for, and/or then or at any time thereafter applied (after payment of any amounts payable
to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 10 hereof) in whole or in part by the Collateral Agent
against, all or any part of the Secured Obligations in such order as the Collateral Agent shall
elect, consistent with the provisions of the Financing Agreement. Any surplus of such cash or Cash
Proceeds held by the Collateral Agent (or its agent or designee) and remaining after the date on
which all of the Secured Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash after the
termination of each Lender’s Commitment and each of the Loan Documents, shall be paid over to
whomsoever shall be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction
shall direct.

               (e) In the event that the proceeds of any such sale, collection or realization are
insufficient to pay all amounts to which the Collateral Agent and the Lenders are legally entitled,
the Grantor shall be liable for the deficiency, together with interest thereon at the highest rate
specified in any applicable Loan Document for interest on overdue principal thereof or such other
rate as shall be fixed by applicable law, together with the costs of collection and the reasonable
fees, costs, expenses and other client charges of any attorneys employed by the Collateral Agent to
collect such deficiency.

               (f) The Grantor hereby acknowledges that if the Collateral Agent complies with any applicable
requirements of law in connection with a disposition of the

Exh. A-21

 

Collateral, such compliance will not adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any
sale or other disposition of the Collateral.

               (g) The Collateral Agent shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral
security (including, but not limited to, this Agreement and the Collateral) for, or other
assurances of payment of, the Secured Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral
security or other assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of the Collateral Agent’s
rights hereunder and in respect of such collateral security and other assurances of payment shall
be cumulative and in addition to all other rights, however existing or arising. To the extent that
the Grantor lawfully may, the Grantor hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the
marshalling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of the Collateral
Agent’s rights under this Agreement or under any other instrument creating or evidencing any of the
Secured Obligations or under which any of the Secured Obligations is outstanding or by which any of
the Secured Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to the extent that
it lawfully may, the Grantor hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.

          SECTION 10. Indemnity and Expenses.

               (a) The Grantor agrees to defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless each Agent and each
other Indemnitee from and against any and all claims, losses, damages, liabilities, obligations,
penalties, fees, reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys’ fees, costs, expenses and disbursements) incurred by such Agent or such Indemnitee to
the extent that they arise out of or otherwise result from or relate to or are in connection with
this Agreement (including, without limitation, enforcement of this Agreement), except claims,
losses or liabilities resulting solely and directly from such Agent’s or any such Indemnitee’s
gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction.

               (b) The Grantor agrees to pay to the Agents upon demand the amount of any and all costs and
expenses, including the reasonable fees, costs, expenses and disbursements of counsel for the
Agents and of any experts and agents (including, without limitation, any collateral trustee which
may act as agent of the Agents), which the Agents may incur in connection with (i) the preparation,
negotiation, execution, delivery, recordation, administration, amendment, waiver or other
modification or termination of this Agreement, (ii) the custody, preservation, use or operation of,
or the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any Collateral, (iii) the exercise or
enforcement of any of the rights of the Agents hereunder, or (iv) the failure by the Grantor to
perform or observe any of the provisions hereof.

          SECTION 11. Notices, Etc. All notices and other communications provided for hereunder
shall be given in accordance with the notice provision of the Financing Agreement.

          SECTION 12. Security Interest Absolute; Joint and Several Obligations.

               (a) All rights of the Secured Parties, all Liens and all obligations of the Grantor hereunder
shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of
the Financing Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) any change in the

Exh. A-22

 

time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term in respect of, all or any of the
Secured Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or consent to any departure from the
Financing Agreement or any other Loan Document, (iii) any exchange or release of, or non-perfection
of any Lien on any Collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure
from any guaranty, for all or any of the Secured Obligations, or (iv) any other circumstance that
might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Grantor in respect of the
Secured Obligations. All authorizations and agencies contained herein with respect to any of the
Collateral are irrevocable and powers coupled with an interest.

               (b) The Grantor hereby waives (i) promptness and diligence, (ii) notice of acceptance and
notice of the incurrence of any Obligation by any Borrower, (iii) notice of any actions taken by
any Agent, any Lender, any Guarantor or any other Person under any Loan Document or any other
agreement, document or instrument relating thereto, (iv) all other notices, demands and protests,
and all other formalities of every kind in connection with the enforcement of the Obligations, the
omission of or delay in which, but for the provisions of this subsection (b), might constitute
grounds for relieving the Grantor of any of Grantor’s obligations hereunder and (v) any requirement
that any Agent or any Lender protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or other lien
on any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against the Grantor or any
other Person or any collateral.

          SECTION 13. Miscellaneous.

               (a) No amendment of any provision of this Agreement (including any Schedule attached hereto)
shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by the Grantor affected thereby and the
Collateral Agent, and no waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure
by the Grantor therefrom, shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by the Collateral
Agent, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the
specific purpose for which given.

               (b) No failure on the part of the Secured Parties to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any
right hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right. The rights and remedies of the Secured Parties provided herein and in
the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are in addition to, and not exclusive of, any rights or
remedies provided by law. The rights of the Secured Parties under any Loan Document against any
party thereto are not conditional or contingent on any attempt by such Person to exercise any of
its rights under any other Loan Document against such party or against any other Person, including
but not limited to, the Grantor.

               (c) This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (i)
remain in full force and effect, subject to paragraph (e) below, until the date on which all of the
Secured Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash after the termination of each
Lender’s Commitment and each of the Loan Documents and (ii) be binding on the Grantor all other
Persons who become bound as debtor to this Agreement in accordance with Section 9-203(d) of the
Code, and shall inure, together with all rights and remedies of the Secured Parties hereunder, to
the benefit of the Secured Parties and their respective successors, transferees and assigns.
Without limiting the generality of clause (ii) of the immediately

Exh. A-23

 

preceding sentence, the Secured Parties may assign or otherwise transfer their respective
rights and obligations under this Agreement and any other Loan Document to any other Person
pursuant to the terms of the Financing Agreement, and such other Person shall thereupon become
vested with all of the benefits in respect thereof granted to the Secured Parties and herein or
otherwise. Upon any such assignment or transfer, all references in this Agreement to any Secured
Party shall mean the assignee of any such Secured Party. None of the rights or obligations of the
Grantor hereunder may be assigned or otherwise transferred without the prior written consent of the
Collateral Agent, and any such assignment or transfer shall be null and void.

               (d) Upon the date on which all of the Secured Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full
in cash after the termination of each Lender’s Commitment and each of the Loan Documents, (i)
subject to paragraph (e) below, this Agreement and the security interests and licenses created
hereby shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the Grantor and (ii) the
Collateral Agent will, upon the Grantor’s request and at the Grantor’s expense, without any
representation, warranty or recourse whatsoever, (A) return to the Grantor (or whomsoever shall be
lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct) such of
the Collateral as shall not have been sold or otherwise disposed of or applied pursuant to the
terms hereof and (B) execute and deliver to the Grantor such documents as the Grantor shall
reasonably request to evidence such termination.

               (e) This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should
any petition be filed by or against the Grantor for liquidation or reorganization, should the
Grantor become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of any creditor or creditors or
should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of the Grantor’s assets,
and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment or
performance of the Secured Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law,
rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the
Secured Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all
as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part
thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Secured Obligations shall be reinstated
and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

               (f) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS
OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, EXCEPT AS REQUIRED BY MANDATORY PROVISIONS OF LAW AND EXCEPT TO THE
EXTENT THAT THE VALIDITY AND PERFECTION OR THE PERFECTION AND THE EFFECT OF PERFECTION OR
NON-PERFECTION OF THE SECURITY INTEREST CREATED HEREBY, OR REMEDIES HEREUNDER, IN RESPECT OF ANY
PARTICULAR COLLATERAL ARE GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF A JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

               (g) In addition to and without limitation of any of the foregoing, this Agreement shall be
deemed to be a Loan Document and shall otherwise be subject to all of terms and conditions
contained in Sections 12.10 and 12.11 of the Financing Agreement, mutatis mutandi.

Exh. A-24

 

               (h) The Grantor irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right it may have to claim or
recover in any legal action, suit or proceeding with respect to this Agreement any special,
exemplary, punitive or consequential damages.

               (i) Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction
shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining portions hereof or thereof or affecting the
validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

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

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

ascribed to them in the Financing Agreement.

Agreement, the Assignor hereby sells and assigns to the Assignee, and the Assignee hereby purchases
and assumes from the Assignor, that interest in and to the Assignor’s rights and obligations under
the Loan Documents as of the date hereof and the Commitments with respect to the Obligations owing
to the Assignor, and the Assignor’s portion of the Loans as specified on Annex I.

          2. The Assignor (a) represents and warrants that (i) it is the legal and beneficial owner of
the interest being assigned by it hereunder and that such interest is free and clear of any adverse
claim and (ii) it has full power and authority, and has taken all action necessary, to execute and
deliver this Assignment Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby; (b) makes
no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements,
warranties or representations made in or in connection with the Loan Documents or the execution,
legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of the Loan Documents or any
other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; and (c) makes no representation or
warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of any Loan Party or
the performance or observance by any Loan Party of any of its obligations under the Loan Documents
or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto.

          3. The Assignee (a) confirms that it has received copies of the Financing Agreement and the
other Loan Documents, together with copies of the financial statements referred to therein and such
other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and
decision to enter into this Assignment Agreement; (b) agrees that it will, independently and
without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Assignor, or any other
Lender, based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue
to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under the Loan Documents; (c)
appoints and authorizes each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to take such
action as the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent (as the case may be) on its behalf and
to exercise such powers under the Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent or
the Collateral Agent (as the case may be) by the terms thereof, together with such powers as are
reasonably incidental thereto; (d) agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all
of the obligations which by the terms of the Loan Documents are required to be performed by it as a
Lender; and (e) attaches the forms prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service of the United States
certifying as to the Assignee’s status for

payments to be made to the Assignee under the Financing Agreement or such other documents as are
necessary to indicate that all such payments are subject to such rates at a rate reduced by an
applicable tax treaty.

          4. Following the execution of this Assignment Agreement by the Assignor and the Assignee, it

to the extent of the interest assigned pursuant to this Assignment Agreement, have the rights and
obligations of a Lender thereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and (b) the Assignor shall,
to the extent of the interest assigned pursuant to this Assignment Agreement, relinquish its rights
and be released from its obligations under the Financing Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

The Assignor and the Assignee shall make all appropriate adjustments in payments under the
Financing Agreement and the other Loan Documents for periods prior to the Settlement Date directly
between themselves on the Settlement Date.

FORM OF INDIVIDUAL GUARANTY

          INDIVIDUAL GUARANTY, dated as of                     , 2009, made by [Jonathan Neuman] [Antony Mitchell],
an individual with a principal address at [                    ] (the “Guarantor”), in favor of each
of the Lenders (as hereinafter defined) and LoIC LLC, a Delaware limited liability company
(“LoIC”), as Collateral Agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, the “Collateral Agent”)
pursuant to the Financing Agreement referred to below.

W I T N E S S E T H:

          WHEREAS, Imperial PFC Financing II, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company (the
“Borrower”), the lenders from time to time party thereto (each a “Lender” and
collectively, the “Lenders”), the Collateral Agent, and LoIC, as administrative agent for
the Lenders (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent” and together with the Collateral
Agent, each an “Agent” and collectively, the “Agents”) are parties to a Financing
Agreement, dated as of                     , 2009 (such agreement, as amended, restated or otherwise modified from time
to time, being hereinafter referred to as the “Financing Agreement”);

          WHEREAS, pursuant to the Financing Agreement, the Lenders have agreed to make term loans (each
a “Loan” and collectively, the “Loans”) to the Borrower;

          WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 5.01(d) of the Financing Agreement, the Guarantor is required to
execute and deliver to the Agents a guaranty guaranteeing the Loans and all other Obligations under
the Financing Agreement under certain limited circumstances set forth in this Guaranty; and

          WHEREAS, the Guarantor has determined that his execution, delivery and performance of this
Guaranty directly benefit, and are within the purposes and in the best interests of, the Guarantor;

          NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the agreements herein and in order to
induce the Lenders to enter into the Financing Agreement and to make the Loans pursuant thereto,
the Guarantor hereby agrees with the Lenders and the Agents as follows:

          SECTION 1. Definitions. Reference is hereby made to the Financing Agreement for a
statement of the terms thereof. All terms used in this Guaranty which are defined in the Financing
Agreement and not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings herein as set forth
therein.

          SECTION 2. Guaranty. (a) The Guarantor hereby (i) irrevocably, absolutely and
unconditionally guarantees (A) the prompt payment by the Borrower, as and when due and payable
(whether by scheduled maturity, required prepayment, acceleration, demand or otherwise), of all
Obligations from time to time owing in respect of the Financing Agreement or any other Loan
Document, whether for principal, interest (including, without limitation, all interest that accrues
after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding with respect to the Borrower, whether or not a
claim for post-filing interest is allowed in such proceeding), fees,

Exh. D-1

 

commissions, expense reimbursements, indemnifications or otherwise, and whether accruing
before or subsequent to the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding with respect to the Borrower
(notwithstanding the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the U.S. Bankruptcy
Code), and the due performance and observance by the Borrower of its other obligations now or
hereafter existing in respect of the Loan Documents, and (B) the full and completion performance by
Imperial Premium Finance, LLC of all of its obligations and duties under the Initial Servicing
Agreement (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”), and (ii) agrees to pay any and all
expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) incurred by the Agents and the Lenders in
enforcing any rights under this Guaranty. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Guarantor’s liability shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Guaranteed
Obligations and would be owed by the Borrower to the Agents and the Lenders under any Loan Document
but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy,
reorganization or similar proceeding involving any Credit Party.

          (b) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Guaranty, except as provided in clause (ii) of
this Section 2(b) and Section 2(c), (x) the Guarantor shall not have any liability under this
Guaranty for the payment or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations, (y) the Guarantor shall not
have any obligation to expend its own funds in the performance of any provision of any Loan
Document, and (z) no Agent nor any Lender shall obtain any deficiency judgment against the
Guarantor with respect to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that:

               (i) nothing contained herein shall limit or otherwise restrict (A) any Agent’s or any Lender’s
rights and remedies against any of the Collateral under any other Loan Document, either at law or
equity, including, without limitation, any rights or remedies with respect to the Equity Interests
of the Borrower owned by the Guarantor, (B) the Agent or any Lender from bringing any action, suit
or proceeding for specific performance against the Guarantor to perform any obligation imposed on
the Guarantor hereunder, (C) recourse to or liability of the Guarantor for any fraud committed by
the Guarantor or material misrepresentation by the Guarantor in any Loan Document to which the
Guarantor is a party, or (D) the obligations of the Guarantor under any Loan Document which
obligations are either directly in favor of any Agent or any Lender or have been assigned to any
Agent or any Lender, each of which may be enforced by and for the benefit of the Agents and
Lenders, and

               (ii) the Guarantor shall have (A) full liability and responsibility for the Guaranteed
Obligations and other obligations hereunder if (x) any act (or omission to act) constituting fraud
or willful misconduct on the part of the Guarantor or any Non-Corporate Trustee that impairs the
Agents’ and the Lenders’ ability to be repaid under the Loan Documents occurs, or (y) the Guarantor
or any Non-Corporate Trustee authorizes, approves, participates in or assists the Borrower or the
Originator in commencing a voluntary or involuntary case under the Bankruptcy Code or any other
Insolvency Proceeding, and (B) liability and responsibility for the Guaranteed Obligations and
other obligations hereunder if (x) any Collections are not promptly deposited directly into the
Collection Account or (ii) inadvertently deposited into an account of the Originator or any
Affiliate and promptly removed from such account and deposited into the Collection Account);
provided, that in the case of this clause (B)(x), such liability and responsibility of the
Guarantor shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the Collections not promptly deposited directly
into the Collection Account, or (y) the Borrower,

Exh. D-2

 

Guarantor and/or an agent of Imperial and/or its Subsidiaries or any Person appointed by the
Borrower to perform any duties on behalf of the Borrower in connection with the Collateral Value
Policy or the Contingent Collateral Value Policy shall refer any claim to the Collateral Value
Insurer or the Contingent Collateral Value Insurer knowing the same to be fraudulent;
provided, that in the case of this clause (B)(y), such liability and responsibility of the
Guarantor shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the loss relating to the applicable Coverage
Certificate related to such fraudulent claim or (z) the applicable Premium Finance Borrower, the
Originator or the Borrower ceases to be the legal owner of a Covered Policy (as defined in the
Collateral Value Policy or the Contingent Collateral Value Policy) and any Non-Corporate Trustee,
the Guarantor and/or an employee of Imperial and/or its Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Guarantor
Responsible Parties”), directly or indirectly, caused, or assisted another Person in, the transfer
of legal title of such Covered Policy from the applicable Premium Finance Borrower, the Originator
or the Borrower to another Person other than the Collateral Value Insurer or the Contingent
Collateral Value Insurer (or a designee of the Collateral Value Insurer or of the Contingent
Collateral Value Insurer) in accordance with the provisions of the Collateral Value Policy or the
Contingent Collateral Value Policy; provided, that in the case of this clause (B)(z), such
liability and responsibility of the Guarantor shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the loss
relating to the applicable Coverage Certificate related to such Covered Policy; provided further,
and for greater clarity, in the case of this clause (B)(z), any transfer or change in legal
ownership caused solely by a Person other than a Guarantor Responsible Party that is permitted by
the Transaction Documents shall not result in liability or responsibility hereunder for the
Guarantor.

          (c) Nothing in subsection (b) of this Section 2 shall limit or otherwise restrict in any
manner the rights, powers and privileges of any Agent against the Guarantor under any other Loan
Document to which the Guarantor is a party.

          SECTION 3. Guaranty Absolute; Continuing Guaranty; Assignments.

          (a) Subject to Sections 2(b) and 2(c) of this Agreement, the Guarantor hereby guarantees that
the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid or performed, as applicable, strictly in accordance with
the terms of the Loan Documents, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in
effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Agents or the Lenders
with respect thereto. The Guarantor agrees that, subject to Sections 2(b) and 2(c) of this
Agreement, this guarantee constitutes a guaranty of payment when due and not of collection and
waives any right to require that any resort be made by the Agents or the Lenders to any Collateral.
The obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty are independent of the obligations under the
Financing Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and a separate action or actions may be brought
and prosecuted against the Guarantor to enforce this Guaranty, irrespective of whether any action
is brought against any Credit Party or whether any Credit Party is joined in any such action or
actions. Subject to Sections 2(b) and 2(c) of this Agreement, the liability of the Guarantor under
this Guaranty shall be irrevocable, absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and the Guarantor
hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now or hereafter have in any way relating to, any or
all of the following:

               (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument
relating thereto;

Exh. D-3

 

               (ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment or performance of, or in any other
term in respect of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of
or any consent to departure from any Loan Document, including, without limitation, any increase in
the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to any Credit Party or
otherwise;

               (iii) any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any Collateral, or any taking,
release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other guaranty, for all or any
of the Guaranteed Obligations;

               (iv) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that the Guarantor may have
against any Person, including, without limitation, any Agent or any Lender;

               (v) any change, restructuring or termination of the limited liability company structure or
existence of the Borrower; or

               (vi) any other circumstance (including any statute of limitations) or any existence of or
reliance on any representation by the Agents or the Lenders that might otherwise constitute a
defense available to, or a discharge of, any Credit Party or any other guarantor or surety.

This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time
any payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the
Agents, the Lenders or any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any
Credit Party or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

          (b) This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall (i) remain in full force and effect until
the later of (x) the cash payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts
payable under this Guaranty and (y) the Final Maturity Date, (ii) be binding upon the Guarantor,
his heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors and assigns and (iii) inure
to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Agents, the Lenders and their successors, pledgees,
transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (iii), any Lender
may pledge, assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of his rights and obligations under any
Loan Document to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the
benefits in respect thereof granted to such Lender herein or otherwise, in each case as provided in
the Financing Agreement.

          SECTION 4. Waivers. The Guarantor hereby waives, to the full extent permitted by
applicable law, (i) promptness and diligence; (ii) notice of acceptance and notice of the
incurrence of any Obligation by the Borrower; (iii) notice of any actions taken by any Agent, the
Borrower, any Credit Party or any Lender under any Loan Document or any other agreement or
instrument related thereto; (iv) all other notices, demands and protests, and all other formalities
of every kind in connection with the enforcement of the Obligations or of the obligations of the
Guarantor hereunder, the omission of or delay in which, but for the provisions of this Section 4,
might constitute grounds for relieving the Guarantor of his obligations hereunder; (v) any right to
compel or direct any Agent or any Lender to seek payment or recovery of any amounts owed under this
Guaranty from any one particular fund or source; (vi) any requirement that any Agent

Exh. D-4

 

or any Lender protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or Lien or any property
subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against the Borrower, any other Credit
Party or any other Person or any Collateral; and (vii) any other defense available to the
Guarantor. The Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the
financing arrangements contemplated herein and that the waiver set forth in this Section 4 is
knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits. The Guarantor hereby waives any right to revoke
this Guaranty, and acknowledges that this Guaranty is continuing in nature and applies to all
Guaranteed Obligations, whether existing now or in the future.

          SECTION 5. Subrogation. (a) Until the final payment in cash and performance in full
of all of the Obligations, the Guarantor shall not exercise any rights against the Borrower or any
other guarantor arising as a result of payment by the Borrower or such guarantor hereunder, by way
of subrogation, reimbursement, restitution, contribution or otherwise, and will not prove any claim
in competition with any Agent or any Lender in respect of any payment hereunder in any Insolvency
Proceedings; the Guarantor will not claim any setoff, recoupment or counterclaim against the
Borrower or any other guarantor in respect of any liability of the Guarantor to the Borrower or
guarantor; and the Guarantor, the Borrower and each guarantor waives any benefit of and any right
to participate in any collateral security which may be held by any Agent or any Lender. Anything to
the contrary contained in the foregoing notwithstanding, the Guarantor shall not exercise any such
rights against the Borrower (including after payment in full of the Obligations) if all or any
portion of the Obligations shall have been satisfied in connection with an exercise of remedies by
the Collateral Agent in respect of the Equity Interests of the Borrower whether pursuant to the
Individual Guarantor Security Agreement or otherwise.

          (b) The payment of any amounts due with respect to any Indebtedness of the Borrower or the
Guarantor for money borrowed or credit received now or hereafter owed to the Guarantor is hereby
subordinated to the prior payment in full of all of the Obligations. The Guarantor agrees that,
after the occurrence of any default in the payment or performance of any of the Obligations, the
Guarantor will not demand, sue for or otherwise attempt to collect any such indebtedness of the
Borrower or other guarantor to the Guarantor until all of the Obligations shall have been paid in
full. If, notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Guarantor shall collect, enforce or receive
any amounts in respect of such indebtedness while any Obligations are still outstanding, such
amounts shall be collected, enforced and received by the Guarantor as trustee for the Agents and
the Lenders and be paid over to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Agents and the
Lenders, on account of the Obligations without affecting in any manner the liability of the
Guarantor under the other provisions of this Guaranty.

          SECTION 6. Representations, Warranties. The Guarantor hereby represents and warrants
as follows:

          (a) The Guarantor has the legal capacity and right to execute, deliver and perform this
Guaranty and each other Loan Document to which the Guarantor is a party.

          (b) The execution, delivery and performance by the Guarantor of this Guaranty and each other
Loan Document to which the Guarantor is a party (i) do not and will not contravene any Requirements
of Law or any contractual restriction binding on or otherwise affecting the Guarantor or his
properties, (ii) do not and will not result in or require the creation

Exh. D-5

 

of any Lien (other than pursuant to any Loan Document) upon or with respect to any of his
properties, and (iii) do not and will not result in any default, noncompliance, suspension,
revocation, impairment, forfeiture or nonrenewal of any permit, license, authorization or approval
applicable to any of his properties.

          (c) No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any
Governmental Authority is required in connection with the due execution, delivery and performance
by the Guarantor of this Guaranty or any of the other Loan Documents to which the Guarantor is a
party, except for the filing of any UCC financing statement or such other registrations, filings or
recordings as may be necessary to perfect the Lien purported to be created by any Loan Documents to
which the Guarantor is a party.

          (d) Each of this Guaranty and the other Loan Documents to which the Guarantor is or will be a
party, when delivered, will be, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Guarantor, enforceable
against the Guarantor in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws.

          (e) There are no pending or written notices threatening any action, suit or proceeding
affecting the Guarantor before any court or other Governmental Authority or any arbitrator that (x)
if adversely determined could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect to the
Guarantor’s financial condition or (y) relates to this Guaranty or any of the other Loan Documents
to which the Guarantor is a party or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby.

          (f) The Guarantor is not in violation of any Requirements of Law or any material term of any
agreement or instrument (including, without limitation, any contract) binding on or otherwise
affecting him or any of his properties.

          (g) The Guarantor is not a party to any agreement or instrument, or subject to any restriction
or any judgment, order, regulation, ruling or other requirement of a court or other Governmental
Authority, which has, or in the future could have, a material adverse effect to the Guarantor’s
financial condition.

          (h) The Guarantor has filed or caused to be filed all tax returns which he is required to file
and has paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns or on any assessments made
against the Guarantor or any of his property by any Governmental Authority except to the extent any
such taxes are being contested in good faith. No tax Lien has been filed with respect to any
material tax liability against the Guarantor, and, to the knowledge of the Guarantor, no tax
assessment is pending against the Guarantor.

          (i) The Guarantor (i) has read and understands the terms and conditions of the Financing
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and (ii) now has and will continue to have independent
means of obtaining information concerning the affairs, financial condition and business of the
Borrower and the other Credit Parties, and has no need of, or right to obtain from any Agent or any
Lender, any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of
the Borrower or the other Credit Parties that may come under the control of any Agent or any
Lender.

Exh. D-6

 

          (j) All representations and warranties set forth in this Guaranty are true and correct in all
respects at the time as of which such representations were made and on the Effective Date.

          SECTION 7. Covenants. The Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees that, until full and
final payment of the Obligations in cash and the termination of the Total Term Loan Commitment, the
Guarantor will:

          (a) Not accept or retain any distribution or other payment from the Borrower if the making of
such distribution or other payment by the Borrower violates, or may reasonably be expected to
result in a violation of, the Financing Agreement or any other Loan Document.

          (b) Comply in all material respects with all Requirements of Law (including any settlement of
any claim that, if breached, could give rise to any of the foregoing).

          (c) Promptly notify the Agents of:

such Guarantor which could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect to the
Guarantor’s financial condition, and (B) any action, suit, litigation or proceeding which may exist
at any time which could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect to the Guarantor’s
financial condition; and

               (ii) the occurrence of any event or development that could have a material adverse effect to
the Guarantor’s financial condition;

provided that (A) each notice pursuant to this Section 7(c) shall be accompanied by a
written statement signed by such Guarantor, setting forth details of the occurrence referred to
therein, and stating what action the Guarantors propose to take with respect thereto and at what
time. Each notice under Section 7(c)(i) shall describe with particularity the provisions of this
Guaranty or other Loan Document that have been breached.

Borrower, to knowingly commit, a Prohibited Act (as defined in the Collateral Value Policy) or any
other act that results in the liability of the Collateral Value Insurer under the Collateral Value

          (g) On the Effective Date, deliver to the Agents, for the benefit of the Lenders, a personal
financial statement of the Guarantor, in form and substance reasonably

Exh. D-7

 

satisfactory to the Agents, accompanied by a signed representation by the Guarantor that such

the financial condition of the Guarantor as of the Effective Date and that the Guarantor has no
contingent obligations or liabilities (for taxes or otherwise) or any unusual long term commitment
except as set forth in such financial statement or the notes thereto.

          SECTION 8. Right of Set-off. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any
Event of Default, and subject to Sections 2(b) and 2(c) of this Agreement, the Agents and the
Lenders may, and are hereby authorized to, at any time and from time to time, without notice to the
Guarantor (any such notice being expressly waived by the Guarantor) and to the fullest extent
permitted by law, set-off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand,
provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by any Agent or any
Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Guarantor against any and all obligations of the
Guarantor either now or hereafter existing under this Guaranty or any other Loan Document,
irrespective of whether or not any Agent or any Lender shall have made any demand under this
Guaranty or any other Loan Document and although such obligations may be contingent or unmatured.
Each of the Agents and Lenders agrees to notify the Guarantor promptly after any such set-off and
application made by such Agent or Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice
shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of the Agents and the
Lenders under this Section 8 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without
limitation, other rights of set-off) which the Agents and the Lenders may have under this Guaranty
or any other Loan Document in law or otherwise.

          SECTION 9. Notices, Etc. All notices and other communications provided for hereunder

deposited in the mails, whichever occurs first, (ii) if telecopied, when transmitted and
confirmation received, or (iii) if delivered by hand, Federal Express or other reputable overnight

Exh. D-8

 

AFTER SUCH MAILING. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY AGENT AND THE LENDERS TO
SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO COMMENCE LEGAL PROCEEDINGS OR
OTHERWISE PROCEED AGAINST THE GUARANTOR IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. THE GUARANTOR HEREBY EXPRESSLY
AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR
HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE JURISDICTION OR 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. TO THE EXTENT THAT THE GUARANTOR HAS OR HEREAFTER MAY ACQUIRE ANY IMMUNITY FROM JURISDICTION
OF ANY COURT OR FROM ANY LEGAL PROCESS (WHETHER THROUGH SERVICE OR NOTICE, ATTACHMENT PRIOR TO
JUDGMENT, ATTACHMENT IN AID OF EXECUTION OR OTHERWISE) WITH RESPECT TO HIM OR HIS PROPERTY, THE
GUARANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES SUCH IMMUNITY IN RESPECT OF HIS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS GUARANTY
AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.

          SECTION 11. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL, ETC. THE GUARANTOR HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A
TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM CONCERNING ANY RIGHTS UNDER THIS GUARANTY
OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR UNDER ANY AMENDMENT, WAIVER, CONSENT, INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR OTHER
AGREEMENT DELIVERED OR WHICH IN THE FUTURE MAY BE DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH, OR
ARISING FROM ANY FINANCING RELATIONSHIP EXISTING IN CONNECTION WITH THIS GUARANTY OR THE OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENTS, AND AGREES THAT ANY SUCH ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM SHALL BE TRIED BEFORE A
COURT AND NOT BEFORE A JURY. THE GUARANTOR CERTIFIES THAT NO OFFICER, REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR
ATTORNEY OF ANY AGENT OR ANY LENDER HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT THE AGENT OR ANY
LENDER WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE
FOREGOING WAIVERS. THE GUARANTOR HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT
FOR THE AGENTS AND THE LENDERS ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT.

          SECTION 12. Miscellaneous.

          (a) The Guarantor will make each payment hereunder in lawful money of the United States of
America and in immediately available funds to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders,
at such address specified by the Collateral Agent from time to time by notice to the Guarantor.

          (b) No amendment of any provision of this Guaranty shall be effective unless it is in writing
and signed by the Guarantor and the Collateral Agent, and no waiver of any provision of this
Guaranty, and no consent to any departure by the Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be
effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Guarantor and the

Exh. D-9

 

Collateral Agent, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific
instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

          (c) No failure on the part of any Agent or any Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising,
any right hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall
any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder or under any other Loan Document preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The rights and remedies of
the Agents and the Lenders provided herein and in the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are
in addition to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies provided by law. The rights of the
Agents and the Lenders under any Loan Document against any party thereto are not conditional or
contingent on any attempt by the Agents and the Lenders to exercise any of their rights under any
other Loan Document against such party or against any other Person.

          (d) Any provision of this Guaranty which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction
shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining portions hereof or thereof or affecting the
validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

          (e) This Guaranty shall (i) be binding on the Guarantor and his heirs, executors,
administrators, legal representatives, successors and assigns, and (ii) inure, together with all
rights and remedies of the Agents and the Lenders hereunder, to the benefit of the Agents and the
Lenders and their respective successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality
of clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence, to the extent permitted by Section 12.07 of
the Financing Agreement, any Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights under the Financing
Agreement or any other Loan Document to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon
become vested with all of the benefits in respect thereof granted to the Lenders herein or
otherwise. The Guarantor agrees that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section
8 with respect to its participation in any portion of the Loans as if it was a Lender. None of the
rights or obligations of the Guarantor hereunder may be assigned or otherwise transferred without
the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent.

          (f) This Guaranty and the other Loan Documents reflect the entire understanding of the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and shall not be contradicted or qualified by any
other agreement, oral or written, before the date hereof.

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

          (h) Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Guaranty by telefacsimile or electronic mail
shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Guaranty. Any
party delivering an executed counterpart of this Guaranty by telefacsimile or electronic mail also
shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Guaranty but the failure to deliver an
original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of
this Guaranty.

Exh. D-10

 

          (i) This Guaranty and the other Loan Documents (unless expressly provided to the contrary in
another Loan Document in respect of such other Loan Document) shall be governed by, and construed
in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts made and to be
performed in the State of New York.

capacity, together with any successors or assigns in such capacity, if any, the “Collateral
Agent”) on behalf of the Lenders referred to below.

W I T N E S S E T H:

          WHEREAS, Imperial PFC Financing II, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company (the
“Borrower”), the lenders from time to time party thereto (each a “Lender” and
collectively, the “Lenders”), the Collateral Agent, and LoIC, as administrative agent for
the Lenders (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent” and together with the Collateral
Agent, each an “Agent” and collectively, the “Agents”) are parties to a Financing
Agreement, dated as of , 2009 (such agreement, as amended, restated or otherwise modified from time
to time, being hereinafter referred to as the “Financing Agreement”);

          WHEREAS, pursuant to the Financing Agreement the Lenders have agreed to make term loans (each
a “Loan” and collectively, the “Loans”) to the Borrower in an aggregate principal amount at
any one time outstanding not to exceed the Total Term Loan Commitment (as defined in the Financing
Agreement);

          WHEREAS, the Pledgor owns 100% of the Equity Interests (as defined in the Financing Agreement)
of the Borrower, as set forth in Schedule I hereto;

          WHEREAS, it is a condition precedent to the Lenders making any Loan to the Borrower pursuant

the Agents and the Lenders, of a security interest in and Lien on the outstanding shares of the
Equity Interests (as defined in the Financing Agreement) owned by the Pledgor of the Borrower, and
in which such Pledgor has any interest at any time;

          WHEREAS, the Pledgor has determined that the execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement directly benefits, and is in the best interest of, the Pledgor.

          NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the agreements herein and in order to
induce the Lenders to make and maintain the Loans to the Borrower pursuant to the Financing
Agreement, the Pledgor hereby agrees with the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Agents and
the Lenders, as follows:

          SECTION 1. Definitions. Reference is hereby made to the Financing Agreement for a
statement of the terms thereof. All terms used in this Agreement which are defined in the

Exh. E-1

 

Financing Agreement or in Article 8 or Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code (the
“Code”) as in effect from time to time in the State of New York and which are not otherwise
defined herein shall have the same meanings herein as set forth therein; provided, that
terms used herein which are defined in the Code as in effect in the State of New York on the date
hereof shall continue to have the same meaning notwithstanding any replacement or amendment of such
statute except as the Collateral Agent may otherwise determine.

          SECTION 2. Pledge and Grant of Security Interest. As collateral security for all of
the Obligations (as defined in Section 3 hereof), the Pledgor hereby pledges and assigns to the
Collateral Agent, and grants to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Agents and the
Lenders, a continuing security interest in and Lien on the Pledgor’s right, title and interest in
and to the following (collectively, the “Pledged Collateral”):

               (a) the shares of stock, partnership interests, member interests and other equity interests
described in Schedule I hereto (the “Pledged Shares”), whether or not evidenced or
represented by any stock certificate, certificated security or other instrument, issued by the
Borrower described in such Schedule I (the “Pledged Issuers”), the certificates
representing the Pledged Shares, all options and other rights, contractual or otherwise, in respect
thereof and all dividends, distributions, cash, instruments, investment property and other property
(including but not limited to, any stock dividend and any distribution in connection with a stock
split) from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange
for any or all of the Pledged Shares;

               (b) all additional shares of stock, partnership interests, member interests or other equity
interests from time to time acquired by the Pledgor, of the Pledged Issuers, the certificates
representing such additional shares, all options and other rights, contractual or otherwise, in
respect thereof and all dividends, distributions, cash, instruments, investment property and other
property from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in
exchange for any or all of such additional shares, interests or equity;

               (c) all security entitlements of the Pledgor in any and all of the foregoing; and

               (d) all proceeds (including proceeds of proceeds) of any and all of the foregoing;

in each case, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by the Pledgor and howsoever its interest
therein may arise or appear (whether by ownership, security interest, Lien, claim or otherwise).

          SECTION 3. Obligations. (a) The Pledgor hereby (i) irrevocably, absolutely and
unconditionally guarantees the prompt payment by the Borrower, as and when due and payable (whether
by scheduled maturity, required prepayment, acceleration, demand or otherwise), of all amounts from
time to time owing in respect of the Financing Agreement or any other Loan Document, whether for
principal, interest (including, without limitation, all interest that accrues after the
commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding with respect to the Borrower, whether or not a claim for
post-filing interest is allowed in such proceeding), fees, commissions, expense

Exh. E-2

 

reimbursements, indemnifications or otherwise, and whether accruing before or subsequent to
the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding with respect to the Borrower (notwithstanding the
operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code), and the due
performance and observance by the Borrower of its other obligations now or hereafter existing in
respect of the Loan Documents (the “Obligations”), and (ii) agrees to pay any and all
expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) incurred by the Agents and the Lenders in
enforcing any rights under this Agreement.

               (b) The security interest created hereby in the Pledged Collateral constitutes continuing
collateral security for (x) Obligations and (y) the due performance and observance by the Pledgor
of all of its other obligations from time to time existing in respect of the Loan Documents.

               (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the recourse of the
Agent and the Lenders with respect to the liability of the Pledgor under this Agreement solely with
respect to the Obligations shall be limited to the Pledged Collateral.

          SECTION 4. Delivery of the Pledged Collateral.

               (a) (i) All certificates currently representing the Pledged Shares shall be delivered to the
Collateral Agent contemporaneously with or prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement.
All other certificates and instruments constituting Pledged Collateral from time to time or
required to be pledged to the Collateral Agent, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the
Financing Agreement (the “Additional Collateral”), shall be delivered to the Collateral
Agent promptly upon receipt thereof by or on behalf of the Pledgor. All such certificates and
instruments shall be held by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent pursuant hereto and shall be
delivered in suitable form for transfer by delivery or shall be accompanied by duly executed
instruments of transfer or assignment or undated stock powers executed in blank, all in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent. If any Pledged Collateral consists of
uncertificated securities, unless the immediately following sentence is applicable thereto, the
Pledgor shall cause the Collateral Agent (or its designated custodian or nominee) to become the
registered holder thereof, or cause each issuer of such securities to agree that it will comply
with instructions originated by the Collateral Agent with respect to such securities without
further consent by the Pledgor. If any Pledged Collateral consists of security entitlements, the
Pledgor shall transfer such security entitlements to the Collateral Agent (or its custodian,
nominee or other designee), or cause the applicable securities intermediary to agree that it will
comply with entitlement orders by the Collateral Agent without further consent by the Pledgor.

               (ii) Within five (5) days of the receipt by the Pledgor of any Additional Collateral, a Pledge
Amendment, duly executed by the Pledgor, in substantially the form of Annex I hereto (a “Pledge
Amendment”) shall be delivered to the Collateral Agent, in respect of the Additional Collateral
which must be pledged pursuant to this Agreement and the Financing Agreement. The Pledge Amendment
shall from and after delivery thereof constitute part of Schedule I hereto. The Pledgor hereby
authorizes the Collateral Agent to attach each Pledge Amendment to this Agreement and agrees that
all certificates or instruments listed on any Pledge

Exh. E-3

 

Amendment delivered to the Collateral Agent shall for all purposes hereunder constitute
Pledged Collateral and such Pledgor shall be deemed upon delivery thereof to have made the
representations and warranties set forth in Section 5 hereof with respect to such Additional
Collateral.

               (b) If the Pledgor shall receive, by virtue of the Pledgor’s being or having been an owner of
any Pledged Collateral, any (i) stock certificate (including, without limitation, any certificate
representing a stock dividend or distribution in connection with any increase or reduction of
capital, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale of assets, combination of shares, stock
split, spin-off or split-off) or other instrument, (ii) option or right, whether as an addition to,
substitution for, or in exchange for, any Pledged Collateral, or otherwise, (iii) dividends payable
in cash (except such dividends permitted to be retained by any such Pledgor pursuant to Section 7
hereof) or in securities or other property or (iv) dividends or other distributions in connection
with a partial or total liquidation or dissolution or in connection with a reduction of capital,
capital surplus or paid-in surplus, the Pledgor shall receive such stock certificate, instrument,
option, right, payment or distribution constituting certificated Pledged Collateral in trust for
the benefit of the Collateral Agent, shall segregate it from such Pledgor’s other property and
shall deliver it forthwith to the Collateral Agent, in the exact form received, with any necessary
endorsement and/or appropriate stock powers duly executed in blank, to be held by the Collateral
Agent as Pledged Collateral and as further collateral security for the Obligations.

          SECTION 5. Representations and Warranties. The Pledgor represents and warrants as
follows:

               (a) The Pledgor is a limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of the state of its organization as set forth on the first page hereof, and
has all the requisite limited liability company power and authority to execute, deliver and perform
this Agreement.

               (b) The execution, delivery and performance by the Pledgor of this Agreement (i) have been
duly authorized by all necessary limited liability company power and authority, (ii) do not and
will not contravene its certificate of formation, operating agreement, any Requirements of Law or
any contractual restriction binding on or affecting it or any of its properties, (ii) do not and
will not result in or require the creation of any Lien upon or with respect to any of its
properties other than pursuant to this Agreement, and (iii) do not and will not results in any
default, noncompliance, suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or nonrenewal of any
material permit, license, authorization or approval applicable to any of its properties.

               (c) Schedule II hereto sets forth (i) the exact legal name of the Pledgor and all other names
used by the Pledgor at any time during the five years preceding the Effective Date, and (ii) the
Pledgor’s chief executive office and principal place of business and each place of business of the
Pledgor during the five years preceding the Effective Date.

               (d) The Pledged Shares have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and
nonassessable and the holders thereof are not entitled to any preemptive,

Exh. E-4

 

first refusal or other similar rights (other than pursuant to a stock transfer agreement
entered into with the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent). All other shares of stock
constituting Pledged Collateral will be duly authorized and validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable.

               (e) The Pledgor is and will be at all times the legal and beneficial owner of the Pledged
Collateral free and clear of all Liens except for the Lien created by this Agreement.

               (f) The exercise by the Collateral Agent of any of its rights and remedies hereunder will not
contravene any law or any contractual restriction binding on or affecting the Pledgor or any of the
properties of the Pledgor and will not result in or require the creation of any Lien upon or with
respect to any of the properties of the Pledgor other than pursuant to this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents.

               (g) No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any
Governmental Authority is required to be obtained or made by the Pledgor for (i) the due execution,
delivery and performance by the Pledgor of this Agreement, (ii) the grant by the Pledgor, or the
perfection, of the Lien created hereby in the Pledged Collateral, except for the filing in the
office described in Schedule III hereto of a UCC financing statement naming the Pledgor as debtor,
the Collateral Agent as secured party and describing the Pledged Collateral, to perfect the
Collateral Agent’s security interests in items of the Pledged Collateral in which such security
interests are not susceptible to perfection by possession of certificates or instruments, which
financing statement has been duly filed or (iii) the exercise by the Collateral Agent of any of its
rights and remedies hereunder, except as may be required in connection with any sale of any Pledged
Collateral by laws affecting the offering and sale of securities generally.

               (h) This Agreement is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Pledgor, enforceable
against the Pledgor in accordance with its terms.

               (i) This Agreement creates a valid Lien in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of
the Agents and the Lenders, in the Pledged Collateral as security for the Obligations. The
Collateral Agent’s having possession of the certificates representing the Pledged Shares and all
other certificates, instruments and cash constituting Pledged Collateral from time to time results
in the perfection of such Lien. Such Lien is, or in the case of Pledged Collateral in which the
Pledgor obtains rights after the date hereof, will be, a perfected, first priority Lien. All action
necessary or desirable to perfect and protect such Lien has been duly taken, except for the
Collateral Agent’s having possession of certificates, instruments and cash constituting Pledged
Collateral after the date hereof

               (j) The partnership interests or membership interests of each Pledged Issuer are (i)
securities for purposes of Article 8 of the UCC, (iii) investment company securities within the
meaning of Section 8-103 of the UCC and (iii) evidenced by a certificate.

               (k) The pledge of the Pledged Collateral pursuant to this Agreement does not violate
Regulation T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

Exh. E-5

 

          SECTION 6. Covenants as to the Pledged Collateral. So long as any of the Obligations
shall remain outstanding or prior to the termination of all Commitments, the Pledgor will, unless
the Collateral Agent shall otherwise consent in writing:

               (a) keep adequate records concerning the Pledged Collateral and permit the Collateral Agent or
any agents, designees or representatives thereof at any time or from time to time to examine and
make copies of and abstracts from such records consistent with the terms of the Financing
Agreement;

               (b) at the Pledgor’s expense, promptly deliver to the Collateral Agent a copy of each notice

in and to the Pledged Collateral against the claims of any Person;

               (d) at the Pledgor’s expense, at any time and from time to time, promptly execute and deliver
all further instruments and documents and take all further action that may be necessary or
desirable or that the Collateral Agent may reasonably request in order to (i) perfect and protect,
or maintain the perfection of, the security interest and Lien created hereby, (ii) enable the
Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder in respect of the
Pledged Collateral or (iii) otherwise effect the purposes of this Agreement, including, without
limitation, delivering to the Collateral Agent irrevocable proxies in respect of the Pledged
Collateral;

               (e) not sell, assign (by operation of law or otherwise), exchange or otherwise dispose of any
Pledged Collateral or any interest therein except as expressly permitted by Section 7.02(c) of the
Financing Agreement;

               (f) not create or suffer to exist any Lien upon or with respect to any Pledged Collateral
except for the Lien created hereby;

               (g) not make or consent to any amendment or other modification or waiver with respect to any
Pledged Collateral or enter into any agreement or permit to exist any restriction with respect to
any Pledged Collateral other than pursuant to the Loan Documents;

               (h) not vote in favor of the issuance of (i) any additional shares of any class of Equity
Interests of each Pledged Issuer, (ii) any securities convertible voluntarily by the holder thereof
or automatically upon the occurrence or non occurrence of any event or condition into, or
exchangeable for, any such shares of Equity Interests or (iii) any warrants, options, contracts or
other commitments entitling any Person to purchase or otherwise acquire any such shares of Equity
Interests, except in the case of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), to the extent any such issuance is
expressly permitted by the Financing Agreement;

               (i) not take or fail to take any action which would in any manner impair the value of or the
enforceability of the Collateral Agent’s security interest in and Lien on any Pledged Collateral;
and

Exh. E-6

 

               (j) cause each interest in each Pledged Issuer controlled by the Pledgor and pledged hereunder
to be (i) represented by a certificate, (ii) deemed a “security” within the meaning of Article 8 of
the UCC and (iii) governed by Article 8 of the UCC.

          SECTION 7. Voting Rights, Dividends, Etc. in Respect of the Pledged Collateral.

               (a) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

                    (i) the Pledgor may exercise any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to any
Pledged Collateral for any purpose not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Financing
Agreement or the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that (A) the Pledgor will
not exercise or will refrain from exercising any such right, as the case may be, if the Collateral
Agent gives the Pledgor notice that, in the Collateral Agent’s judgment, such action (or inaction)
is reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect to the Pledgor’s financial condition and (B)
the Pledgor will give the Collateral Agent at least five (5) Business Days’ notice of the manner in
which it intends to exercise, or the reasons for refraining from exercising, any such right which
is reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect to the Pledgor’s financial condition;

                    (ii) the Pledgor may receive and retain any and all dividends, interest or other distributions
or payments in respect of the Pledged Collateral to the extent permitted by the Financing
Agreement; provided, however, that any and all (A) dividends and interest paid or
payable other than in cash in respect of, and instruments and other property received, receivable
or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for, any Pledged Collateral, (B) dividends
and other distributions paid or payable in cash in respect of any Pledged Collateral in connection
with a partial or total liquidation or dissolution or in connection with a reduction of capital,
capital surplus or paid-in surplus, and (C) cash paid, payable or otherwise distributed in
redemption of, or in exchange for, any Pledged Collateral, together with any dividend, interest or
other distribution or payment which at the time of such payment was not permitted by the Financing
Agreement, shall be, and shall forthwith be delivered to the Collateral Agent, if such Collateral
constitutes certificated Pledged Collateral, to hold as, Pledged Collateral and shall, if received
by the Pledgor, be received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, shall be segregated
from the other property or funds of the Pledgor, and shall be forthwith delivered to the Collateral
Agent in the exact form received with any necessary endorsement and/or appropriate stock powers
duly executed in blank, to be held by the Collateral Agent as Pledged Collateral and as further
collateral security for the Obligations; and

                    (iii) the Collateral Agent will execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to
the Pledgor all such proxies and other instruments as the Pledgor may reasonably request for the
purpose of enabling the Pledgor to exercise the voting and other rights which it is entitled to
exercise pursuant to Section 7(a)(i) hereof and to receive the dividends, interest and/or other
distributions which it is authorized to receive and retain pursuant to Section 7(a)(ii) hereof.

Exh. E-7

 

               (b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default:

                    (i) all rights of the Pledgor to exercise the voting and other rights which it would otherwise
be entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 7(a)(i) hereof, and to receive the dividends,
distributions, interest and other payments which it would otherwise be authorized to receive and
retain pursuant to Section 7(a)(ii) hereof, shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become
vested in the Collateral Agent which shall thereupon have the sole right to exercise such voting
and other consensual rights and to receive and hold as Pledged Collateral such dividends and
interest payments;

                    (ii) without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Collateral Agent may, at its option
exercise any and all rights of conversion, exchange, subscription or any other rights, privileges
or options pertaining to any of the Pledged Collateral as if it were the absolute owner thereof,
including, without limitation, the right to exchange, in its discretion, any and all of the Pledged
Collateral upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other adjustment of
each Pledged Issuer, or upon the exercise by each Pledged Issuer of any right, privilege or option
pertaining to any Pledged Collateral, and, in connection therewith, to deposit and deliver any and
all of the Pledged Collateral with any committee, depository, transfer agent, registrar or other
designated agent upon such terms and conditions as it may determine; and

                    (iii) all dividends, distributions, interest and other payments which are received by the
Pledgor contrary to the provisions of Section 7(b)(i) hereof shall be received in trust for the
benefit of the Collateral Agent shall be segregated from other funds of the Pledgor, and shall be
forthwith paid over to the Collateral Agent as Pledged Collateral in the exact form received with
any necessary endorsement and/or appropriate stock powers duly executed in blank, to be held by the
Collateral Agent as Pledged Collateral and as further collateral security for the Obligations.

          SECTION 8. Additional Provisions Concerning the Pledged Collateral.

          (a) To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, and for the purpose of taking any
action which the Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this
Agreement, the Pledgor (i) authorizes the Collateral Agent to execute any such agreements,
instruments or other documents in the Pledgor’s name and to file such agreements, instruments or
other documents in the Pledgor’s name and to file such agreements, instruments, or other documents
in any appropriate filing office (ii) authorizes the Collateral Agent to file any financing
statements required hereunder or under any other Loan Document, and any continuation statements or
amendment with respect thereto, in any appropriate filing office without the signature of the
Pledgor and (iii) ratifies the filing of any financing statement, and any continuation statement or
amendment with respect thereto, filed without the signature of the Pledgor prior to the date hereof
A photocopy or other reproduction of this Agreement or any financing statement covering the Pledged
Collateral or any part thereof shall be sufficient as a financing statement where permitted by law.

Exh. E-8

 

               (b) The Pledgor hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent as the Pledgor’s
attorney-in-fact and proxy, with full authority in the place and stead of the Pledgor and in the
name of the Pledgor or otherwise, from time to time in the Collateral Agent’s discretion, to take
any action and to execute any instrument which the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable
to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement (subject to the rights of the Pledgor under Section
7(a) hereof), including, without limitation, to receive, endorse and collect all instruments made
payable to the Pledgor representing any dividend, interest, distribution or other payment in
respect of any Pledged Collateral and to give full discharge for the same. This power is coupled
with an interest and is irrevocable until all of the Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full
after all Commitments have been terminated.

               (c) If the Pledgor fails to perform any agreement or obligation contained herein, the
Collateral Agent itself may perform, or cause performance of, such agreement or obligation, and the
expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by the Pledgor
pursuant to Section 10 hereof and shall be secured by the Pledged Collateral.

               (d) Other than the exercise of reasonable care to assure the safe custody of the Pledged
Collateral while held hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty or liability to preserve
rights pertaining thereto and shall be relieved of all responsibility for the Pledged Collateral
upon surrendering it or tendering surrender of it to the Pledgor. The Collateral Agent shall be
deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Pledged Collateral
in its possession if the Pledged Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which
the Collateral Agent accords its own property, it being understood that the Collateral Agent shall
not have responsibility for (i) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions,
exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relating to any Pledged Collateral, whether or not
the Collateral Agent has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or (ii) taking any
necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any Pledged Collateral.

               (e) The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest
in the Pledged Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Collateral Agent to exercise any
such powers. Except for the safe custody of any Pledged Collateral in its possession and the
accounting for monies actually received by it hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty as
to any Pledged Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against
prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Pledged Collateral.

               (f) The Collateral Agent may at any time in its discretion (i) without notice to the Pledgor,
transfer or register in the name of the Collateral Agent or any of its nominees any or all of the
Pledged Collateral, subject only to the revocable rights of such Pledgor under Section 7(a) hereof,
and (ii) exchange certificates or instruments constituting Pledged Collateral for certificates or
instruments of smaller or larger denominations.

          SECTION 9. Remedies Upon Default. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing:

Exh. E-9

 

               (a) The Collateral Agent may exercise in respect of the Pledged Collateral, in addition to any
other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all of the rights and
remedies of a secured party upon default under the Code then in effect in the State of New York;
and without limiting the generality of the foregoing and without notice except as specified below,
sell the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale,
at any exchange or broker’s board or elsewhere, at such price or prices and on such other terms as
the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable. The Pledgor agrees that, to the extent
notice of sale shall be required by law, at least five (5) days notice to the Pledgor of the time
and place of any public sale of Pledged Collateral owned by the Pledgor or the time after which any
private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Collateral Agent shall not
be obligated to make any sale of Pledged Collateral regardless of whether or not notice of sale has
been given. The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by
announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be
made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned.

               (b) In the event that the Collateral Agent determines to exercise its right to sell all or any
part of the Pledged Collateral pursuant to Section 9(a) hereof, the Pledgor will, upon request by
the Collateral Agent: (i) execute and deliver, and vote in favor of causing the issuer of the
Pledged Collateral and the directors and officers thereof to execute and deliver, all such
instruments and documents, and do or cause to be done all such other acts and things, as may be
necessary or, in the opinion of the Collateral Agent, advisable to register the Pledged Collateral
under the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and
to cause the registration statement relating thereto to become effective and to remain effective
for such period as prospectuses are required by law to be furnished, and to make all amendments and
supplements thereto and to the related prospectus which, in the opinion of the Collateral Agent,
are necessary or advisable, all in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act and the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable thereto, (ii) vote in
favor of causing the issuer of the Pledged Collateral to qualify the Pledged Collateral under the
state securities or “Blue Sky” laws of each jurisdiction, and to obtain all necessary governmental
approvals for the sale of the Pledged Collateral, as requested by the Collateral Agent, (iii) vote
in favor of causing each Pledged Issuer to make available to its securityholders, as soon as
practicable, an earnings statement which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the
Securities Act, and (iv) do or cause to be done all such other acts and things within its power as
may be necessary to make such sale of the Pledged Collateral valid and binding and in compliance
with any applicable law.

               (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9(b) hereof, the Pledgor recognizes that the
Collateral Agent may deem it impracticable to effect a public sale of all or any part of the
Pledged Shares or any other securities constituting Pledged Collateral and that the Collateral
Agent may, therefore, determine to make one or more private sales of any such securities to a
restricted group of purchasers who will be obligated to agree, among other things, to acquire such
securities for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale
thereof. The Pledgor acknowledges that any such private sale may be at prices and on terms less
favorable to the seller than the prices and other terms which might have been obtained at a public
sale and, notwithstanding the foregoing, agrees that such private sales shall be deemed to have
been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Collateral

Exh. E-10

 

Agent shall have no obligation to delay the sale of any such securities for the period of time
necessary to permit the issuer of such securities to register such securities for public sale under
the Securities Act. The Pledgor further acknowledges and agrees that any offer to sell such
securities which has been (i) publicly advertised on a bona fide basis in a newspaper or other
publication of general circulation in the financial community of New York, New York (to the extent
that such an offer may be so advertised without prior registration under the Securities Act) or
(ii) made privately in the manner described above to not less than fifteen bona
fide offerees shall be deemed to involve a “public disposition” for the purposes of Section
9-610(c) of the Code (or any successor or similar, applicable statutory provision) as then in
effect in the State of New York, notwithstanding that such sale may not constitute a “public
offering” under the Securities Act, and that the Collateral Agent may, in such event, bid for the
purchase of such securities.

               (d) Any cash held by the Collateral Agent as Pledged Collateral and all cash proceeds received
by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, all
or any part of the Pledged Collateral may, in the discretion of the Collateral Agent, be held by
the Collateral Agent as collateral for, and/or then or at any time thereafter applied (after
payment of any amounts payable to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 10 hereof) in whole or
in part by the Collateral Agent against, all or any part of the Obligations in such order as the
Collateral Agent shall elect consistent with the provisions of the Financing Agreement. Any surplus
of such cash or cash proceeds held by the Collateral Agent and remaining after indefeasible payment
in full of all of the Obligations after all Commitments have been terminated shall be paid over to
the Pledgor or to such Person as may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

               (e) In the event that the proceeds of any such sale, collection or realization are
insufficient to pay all amounts to which the Agents and the Lenders are legally entitled, the
Pledgor shall be liable for the deficiency, together with interest thereon at the highest rate
specified in the Financing Agreement for interest on overdue principal thereof or such other rate
as shall be fixed by applicable law, together with the costs of collection and the fees, costs and
expenses and other client charges of any attorneys employed by the Collateral Agent to collect such
deficiency.

          SECTION 10. Indemnity and Expenses.

               (a) The Pledgor agrees to defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless each Agent and each
Lender (and all of their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys, consultants and
agents) from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities obligations, penalties,
fees, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, legal fees, costs and expenses of counsel)
to the extent that they arise out of or otherwise result from the enforcement of this Agreement,
except, as to any such indemnified Person, claims, losses or liabilities resulting solely and
directly from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final
judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

               (b) The Pledgor agrees to pay to the Collateral Agent upon demand the amount of any and all
costs and expenses, including the fees, costs, expenses and disbursements of the Collateral Agent’s
counsel and of any experts and agents, which the Collateral Agent may

Exh. E-11

 

incur in connection with (i) the amendment, waiver or other modification or termination of
this Agreement, (ii) the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or the sale of, collection
from, or other realization upon, any Pledged Collateral, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any
of the rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder, or (iv) the failure by the Pledgor to perform or
observe any of the provisions hereof.

          SECTION 11. Notices, Etc. All notices and other communications provided for hereunder
shall be in writing and shall be mailed (by certified mail, postage prepaid and return receipt
requested), telecopied or delivered, if to the Pledgor, to the Pledgor as specified next to such
Pledgor’s signature below; if to the Borrower, at its address specified in Section 12.01 of the
Financing Agreement; or if to the Collateral Agent, to it at its address specified in Section 12.01
of the Financing Agreement; or as to any such Person at such other address as shall be designated
by such Person in a written notice to such other Person complying as to delivery with the terms of
this Section 11. All such notices and other communications shall be effective (i) if mailed
(certified mail, postage prepaid and return receipt requested), when received or three (3) days
after deposited in the mails, whichever occurs first, (ii) if telecopied, when transmitted and
confirmation received, or (iii) if delivered by hand, Federal Express or other reputable overnight
courier, upon delivery.

          SECTION 12. Security Interest Absolute. All rights of the Agents and the Lenders, all
Liens and all obligations of the Pledgor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective
of: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Financing Agreement or any other agreement or
instrument relating thereto, (ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any
other term in respect of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or
consent to any departure from the Financing Agreement or any other Loan Document, (iii) any
exchange or release of, or non-perfection of any Lien on any Collateral, or any release or
amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any Guaranty, for all or any of the
Obligations, or (iv) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available
to, or a discharge of, the Pledgor in respect of the Obligations. All authorizations and agencies
contained herein with respect to any of the Pledged Collateral are irrevocable and powers coupled
with an interest.

          SECTION 13. Miscellaneous.

               (a) No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless it is in writing
and signed by the Collateral Agent, and no waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no
consent to any departure the Pledgor therefrom, shall be effective unless it is in writing and
signed by the Collateral Agent, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the
specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

               (b) No failure on the part of any Agent or any Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising,
any right hereunder or under any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right. The rights and remedies of the Agents and the Lenders provided herein
and in the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are in addition to, and not exclusive of, any
rights or remedies provided by law. The rights of the

Exh. E-12

 

Agents and the Lenders under the applicable Loan Document against any party thereto are not
conditional or contingent on any attempt by the Agents or the Lenders to exercise any of their
rights under any other document against such party or against any other Person, including but not
limited to, the Pledgor.

               (c) Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction
shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining portions hereof or thereof or affecting the
validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

               (d) This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in and Lien on the Pledged
Collateral and shall (i) remain in full force and effect until the indefeasible payment in full or
release of the Obligations after the termination of all of the Commitments and (ii) be binding on
each Pledgor and, by its acceptance hereof, the Collateral Agent, and its respective successors and
assigns, and shall inure, together with all rights and remedies of the Agents and the Lenders
hereunder, to the benefit of each of the Agents and the Lenders and their respective successors,
transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of clause (ii) of the immediately
preceding sentence, without notice to the Pledgor, the Agents and the Lenders may assign or
otherwise transfer their respective rights and obligations under this Agreement and any other Loan
Document to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all of the
benefits in respect thereof granted to the Agents and the Lenders herein or otherwise. Upon any
such assignment or transfer, all references in this Agreement to any such Agent or Lender shall
mean the assignee of such Agent or Lender. None of the rights or obligations of the Pledgor
hereunder may be assigned or otherwise transferred without the prior written consent of the
Collateral Agent, and any such assignment or transfer shall be null and void.

               (e) Upon the satisfaction in full of the Obligations after the termination of all of the
Commitments (i) this Agreement and the security interest and Lien created hereby shall terminate
and all rights to the Pledged Collateral shall revert to the Pledgor, and (ii) the Collateral Agent
will, upon the Pledgor’s request and at the Pledgor’s expense, (A) return to the Pledgor such of
the Pledged Collateral as shall not have been sold or otherwise disposed of or applied pursuant to
the terms hereof, and (B) execute and deliver to the Pledgor, without recourse, representation or
warranty, such documents as the Pledgor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.

               (f) This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties
hereto on separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all such
counterparts shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of
this Agreement by telefacsimile or electronic mail shall be equally as effective as delivery of an
original executed counterpart of this Agreement. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of
this Agreement by telefacsimile or electronic mail also shall deliver an original executed
counterpart of this Agreement but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not
affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Agreement.

               (g) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State
of New York, except as required by mandatory provisions of law and

Exh. E-13

 

except to the extent that the validity and perfection or the perfection and the effect of
perfection or non-perfection of the security interest and Lien created hereby, or remedies
hereunder, in respect of any particular Pledged Collateral are governed by the law of a
jurisdiction other than the State of New York.

               (h) ANY LEGAL ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY DOCUMENT
RELATED THERETO MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK IN THE COUNTY OF NEW YORK OR
THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND APPELLATE COURTS THEREOF,
AND, BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE PLEDGOR HEREBY ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND IN
RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS.
THE PLEDGOR HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY
OBJECTION, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OR BASED ON THE
GROUNDS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING
OF ANY SUCH ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH RESPECTIVE JURISDICTIONS AND CONSENTS TO THE
GRANTING OF SUCH LEGAL OR EQUITABLE RELIEF AS IS DEEMED APPROPRIATE BY THE COURT.

               (i) THE PLEDGOR AND (BY ITS ACCEPTANCE OF THE BENEFITS OF THIS AGREEMENT) THE COLLATERAL AGENT
WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED ON, ARISING OUT
OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF
CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, VERBAL OR WRITTEN STATEMENT OR OTHER ACTION OF THE PARTIES HERETO.

FORM OF OPINION

September          , 2009

To the Agents and each of the

Lenders party to the Financing

Agreement referred to below

	 	Re:  	 	Imperial PFC Financing II, LLC

Ladies and Gentlemen:

          We have acted as counsel to Imperial PFC Financing II, LLC, a Georgia limited liability
company (the “Borrower”), Imperial Premium Finance, LLC, a Florida limited liability
company (“Imperial”) and Jonathan Neuman and Antony Mitchell (each an “Individual
Guarantor” and collectively, the “Individual Guarantors” and together with the Borrower
and Imperial, each a “Credit Party”, and collectively, the “Credit Parties”) in
connection with the making by the Lenders (as defined herein) of the term loans (the “Term
Loans”) to the Borrower pursuant to the Financing Agreement, dated as of               , 2009 (the
“Financing Agreement”), by and among the Borrower, the lenders from time to time party
thereto (each a “Lender” and collectively, the “Lenders”) and LoIC LLC, a Delaware
limited liability company (“LoIC”), as collateral agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, the
“Collateral Agent”), and LoIC, as administrative agent for the Lenders (in such capacity,
the “Administrative Agent” and together with the Collateral Agent, each an “Agent”
and collectively, the “Agents”). This opinion is being delivered to you pursuant to Section
5.01(d) of the Financing Agreement. All capitalized terms used and not defined herein have the same
meanings herein as set forth in the Financing Agreement.1

          In connection with this opinion, we have reviewed (i) the organization and existence of the
Credit Parties, (ii) the proceedings of the Credit Parties in relation to the Loan Documents and
the Transaction Documents to which the Credit Parties are parties, (iii) the Loan Documents, (iv)
the UCC financing statements which have been prepared by the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section
5.01(d) of the Financing Agreement (the “Financing Statements”), and (v) such certificates
and other documents of the public officials, officers and other representatives of the Credit
Parties as we have deemed relevant or proper as a basis for our opinions set forth herein. In this
regard, we have relied as to factual matters on the representatives of the Credit Parties as we
have deemed relevant or proper as a basis for our opinions set forth herein. In this regard, we
have relied as to factual matters on the representations and warranties contained in the Loan
Documents and the Transaction Documents. In addition, we have assumed the genuineness of signatures
on original documents

 

			
	1	 	Note that in addition to these opinions, we
will also need full non-consolidation, true sale and true participation
opinions.

1

 

of all Persons and officers and other representatives of the Credit Parties, and the
conformity to the original of all copies submitted to us as photocopies or conformed copies.

          Based upon the foregoing and such investigations as we deem advisable and proper, we are of
the opinion that:

          1. Each of the Borrower and Imperial (i) is a limited liability company duly organized,
validly existing and in good standing under the law of the state of its organization, (ii) has all
requisite power and authority to conduct its business as now conducted and to consummate the
transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents and the Transaction Documents to which it is a
party, and (iii) is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in
which the character of the properties owned or leased by it or in which the transaction of its
business makes such qualification necessary or desirable. Each Individual Guarantor has the legal
capacity and right to execute, deliver and perform each Loan Document and each Transaction Document
to which the Individual Guarantor is a party.

          2. The execution, delivery and performance by each Credit Party of each Loan Document and
Transaction Document to which it is a party, (i) have been duly authorized by all necessary action,
(ii) do not contravene its Governing Documents, any law or regulation (including, without
limitation, Regulations T, U, or X of the Board), or any judgment, writ, injunction, decree, order
or ruling of which we have knowledge that names such Credit Party and is specifically directed to
it or its properties, (iii) do no breach, result in a default under or accelerate, or give any
party the right to accelerate, any of the obligations of such Credit Party under any Material
Contract, (iv) do not and will not result in or require the creation of any lien, security interest
or other charge or encumbrance (other than pursuant to the Loan Documents) upon or with respect to
any of its properties, and (v) do not and will not result in any suspension, revocation,
impairment, forfeiture or nonrenewal of any permit, licenses, authorization or approval applicable
to its operations or any of its properties.

          3. No consent, authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with,
any Governmental Authority or other regulatory body is required (i) in connection with the due
execution, delivery and performance by any Credit Party of any Loan Document or Transaction
Document to which such Person is a party, (ii) for the grant by any Credit Party pursuant to any
Loan Document, or the perfection, of any lien or security interest purported to be created thereby
in any Collateral, or (iii) for the exercise by the Agents and the Lenders of any of their rights
and remedies under any Loan Document, except for the recordings and filings referred to in
paragraph 6 below, all of which have been duly obtained or made and are in full force and effect.

          4. Each Loan Document and Transaction Document has been duly executed and delivered by each
Credit Party which is a party thereto. Each such Loan Document and Transaction Document constitutes
the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Credit Party which is a party thereto, enforceable
against such Credit Party in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that the
enforceability thereof may be limited by any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium or similar laws from time to time in effect affecting generally the enforcement of
creditors’ rights and remedies and by general principles of equity.

2

 

          5. The Security Agreement creates a valid security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent
for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders in the Collateral purported to be covered thereby as
security for the obligations purported to be secured thereby. Each Individual Guarantor Security
Agreement creates a valid security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the
Agents and the Lenders in the Collateral purported to be covered thereby as security for the
obligations purported to be secured thereby.

          6. The Borrower is a “registered organization” and is “located” in the state where the
Borrower is formed as set forth in Schedule A, and the local law of such state governs
perfection by the filing of Financing Statements. Each Individual Guarantor resides at the location
set forth in Schedule A, and the local law of such state governs perfection by the filing
of Financing Statements. Each Financing Statement to be filed in a state set forth on Schedule A
hereto (each, a “State”) is in appropriate form and has been duly filed in the offices set
forth in Schedule A hereto, which filings result in the perfection of the security interests in the
Collateral covered by such Financing Statements to the extent that such Collateral consists of the
type of property in which a security interest may be created under Article 9 of the Uniform
Commercial Code as currently in effect in such State (the “UCC”) and in which a security
interest may be perfected by the filing of a financing statement in such State. The description of
the Collateral set forth in the Financing Statements is sufficient to perfect a security interest
in the items and types of collateral in which a security interest may be perfected by the filing of
financing statements under the UCC currently in effect in the applicable State. Such security
interests of the Agents and the Lenders are perfected security interests. Other than nominal
recording or filing fees, no fees, taxes or other charges are due or payable in any State in
connection with the execution, delivery, filing or recordation of any Financing Statement.

          7. Upon the execution and delivery of each cash management agreement by a depositary bank that
maintains a collection account, the security interest of the Collateral Agent in the applicable
collection account maintained with such depositary bank will be perfected.

          8. Each Credit Party which is a party to the Security Agreement or an Individual Guarantor
Security Agreement is the owner of the Pledged Debt (as defined in the Security Agreement or an
Individual Guarantor Security Agreement, as applicable) and the Pledge Shares (as defined in the
Security Agreement or an Individual Guarantor Security Agreement, as applicable) in existence on
the date hereof, free and clear of any Lien except for the security interest created by the
Security Agreement or the Individual Guarantor Security Agreement. The Pledged Shares have been
duly authorized and validly issued, are fully paid and nonassessable and constitute 100% of the
issued and outstanding Equity Interests of the issuer of such Pledged Shares.

          9. The Collateral Agent’s having possession of the certificates representing the Pledged
Shares and the promissory notes representing the Pledged Debt delivered to the Collateral Agent on
the date hereof results in the perfection of such security interest. Such security interest is a
perfected, first priority security interest. The Collateral Agent has a perfected security interest
in that portion of the Pledged Shares consisting of general intangibles and other items in which a
security interest may be perfected by the filing of a financing statement in the applicable State.

3

 

          10. There is no pending or, to our knowledge, threatened action, suit or proceeding affecting
any Credit Party before any court, arbitrator, or Governmental Authority which may materially and
adversely affect (i) the financial condition, business, performance, properties, operations or
prospects of any Credit Party, (ii) the ability of any Credit Party to perform the obligations of
such Person under any Loan Document or Transaction Document to which it is a party, (iii) the
legality, validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or Transaction Document, (iv) the rights
and remedies of any Agent or any Lender under any Loan Document, or (v) the creation, perfection or
priority of the Lien of the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral securing the Obligations.

          11. None of the Credit Parties is an “investment company” or a company “controlled by an
“investment company”, as such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

          12. The choice of New York law to govern the Financing Agreement and the other Loan Documents
is a valid choice of law and will be upheld in a properly presented case by a court of competent
jurisdiction in the States of                     . The Credit Parties’ submission to the jurisdiction of
the courts of the State of New York in the county of New York or the United District court for the
Southern District of New York is legal, valid and binding under the laws of the applicable state
jurisdiction.

          13. If a court of the States of                      were to apply the usury law of such
jurisdiction to the Financing Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the Term Loans, as made,
would not violate any applicable usury law of such jurisdiction, or other applicable laws
regulating the interest rate, fees and other charges that may be collected with respect to the Term
Loans.2

          14. This opinion letter may not be relied upon or furnished to any other Person, except your
attorneys and auditors, any state or federal governmental or other regulatory authority, bank
examiners, pursuant to any legal process of any court or governmental or regulatory authority or to
your successors, assigns and participants.

Very truly yours,

          3. Representations and Warranties of the Assignee. The Assignee hereby represents and
warrants to the Assignor as of the Settlement Date that:

          (a) Organization and Good Standing. The Assignee has been duly organized and is
validly existing as a limited liability company in good standing under the laws of the State of
Georgia, and has power and authority to own its properties and to conduct its business as such
properties shall be currently owned and such business is presently conducted.

          (b) Power and Authority. The Assignee shall have the power and authority to execute
and deliver this Assignment Agreement and to carry out its terms; the Assignee shall have full
power and authority to purchase the property to be purchased and shall have duly authorized such
purchase; and the execution, delivery and performance of this Assignment Agreement shall have been
duly authorized by the Assignee by all necessary action.

          (c) Binding Obligation. This Assignment Agreement shall constitute a legal, valid and
binding obligation of the Assignee enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as
enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other
similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally or by general principles of equity.

          The representations and warranties set forth in Section 2 and Section 3 of this Assignment
Agreement shall survive the sale of the interests by the Assignor to the Assignee pursuant to this
Assignment Agreement. Upon discovery by the Assignor or the Assignee of a breach of any of the
foregoing representations and warranties, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt
written notice to the other.

          4. Remedies.

          (a) Repurchase of interests for Certain Breaches. In the event of a breach of any
representations and warranties set forth in Section 2(c), (d), (e), (f), (g), (h), (i), (j), (k),
(l), (o) or (v), upon the earlier to occur of the discovery of such breach by the Assignor or
receipt by the Assignor of written notice of such breach given by or on behalf of the Assignee, the
Assignee’s interest in each Insurance Premium Loan relating to such breach shall be repurchased by
the Assignor from the Assignee and upon such repurchase shall terminate and be extinguished.

          (b) Reconveyed Insurance Premium Loans. Upon the repurchase by the Assignor of any
interest under this Assignment Agreement, then, on the date required for such repurchase, the
Assignor shall deposit into the Collection Account in immediately available

5

 

funds an amount equal to the outstanding principal balance of the affected Insurance Premium
Loans on the date of such repurchase, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon through
such date. Such deposit shall be considered payment in full for such interest.

     In connection with the preceding paragraph, the Assignee shall execute such documents and
instruments of transfer or assignment as shall be prepared by the Assignor, and shall take such
other actions as shall reasonably be requested by the Assignor, to effect the repurchase of the
interests from the Assignee. Upon repurchase of the interests in Insurance Premium Loans from the
Assignee, the Assignee shall automatically and without further action be deemed to transfer,
assign, set over and otherwise convey to or upon the order of the Assignor, without recourse,
representation or warranty, all the right, title and interest of the Assignee in and to the
reconveyed interest and all Collections with respect thereto and all proceeds thereof received
after the date of such repurchase.

          5. Covenants of the Assignor. The Assignor hereby covenants that:

          (a) No Impairment. Except in accordance with, or as contemplated by, the Loan
Documents and the Transaction Documents, the Assignor shall take no action, nor omit to take any
action, which would impair the rights of the Assignee in any Insurance Premium Loan in which an
interest has been transferred hereunder.

          (b) Compliance with Law. The Assignor will comply in all material respects with all
Requirements of Law with respect to it, its business and properties and the Insurance Premium Loans
and related Life Insurance Policies. The Assignor will maintain all applicable permits,
certifications and licenses (including all licenses to originate Insurance Premium Loans) necessary
with respect to its business and properties and all Insurance Premium Loans and the Life Insurance
Policy related thereto.

          (c) Preservation of Existence. The Assignor will preserve and maintain its existence,
rights, franchises and privileges as a limited liability company or corporation, as applicable, and
become and remain licensed in each jurisdiction where the failure to maintain such license would
materially and adversely affect (A) the interests of the Assignee hereunder or (B) the
collectibility of any Insurance Premium Loans in which an interest has been transferred hereunder
or the related Life Insurance Policies; and the Assignor shall not consolidate with or merge into
any other Person or convey or transfer its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to
any Person without the prior written consent of the Assignee.

          (d) Performance and Compliance with Insurance Premium Loans. The Assignor will, at its
expense, timely and fully perform and comply with all provisions, covenants and other promises
required to be observed by it hereunder. The Assignor shall comply with and perform its obligations
with respect to any Insurance Premium Loan.

          (e) Collections and Payments. Except as otherwise provided in this Assignment
Agreement, the Assignor will cause any Collections received by it to be deposited in the Collection
Account no later than the Business Day following the receipt and identification of proceeds.

6

 

          (f) Arm’s-Length Relationship; Separate Existence. The Assignor will maintain an
arm’s-length relationship with the Assignee. Any transaction between the Assignee on the one hand
and the Assignor or any respective Affiliates thereof, on the other hand, will, in the reasonable
judgment of the Assignor, be fair and equitable to the Assignee. The Assignor shall not acquire any
obligations of the Assignee.

          (g) Responsibility of Assignor. The Assignor will not agree to be, or hold itself out
to be, responsible for the debts of the Assignee or for the decisions or actions with respect to
the daily business and affairs of the Assignee.

          (h) Reporting Requirements.

               (i) As soon as possible and in any event within ten (10) Business Days after the Assignor
obtains knowledge thereof, the Assignor shall notify the Assignee of any litigation, investigation
or proceeding that could reasonably be expected to impair in any material respect the ability of
the Assignor to perform its obligations under this Assignee Agreement.

               (ii) The Assignor shall promptly deliver to the Assignee such other information, documents,
records or reports regarding the Insurance Premium Loans in which an interest has been transferred
hereunder and related Life Insurance Policies as the Assignee may from time to time reasonably
request in order to protect the Assignee’s interests under or as contemplated by this Assignment
Agreement..

          (i) No Bankruptcy Filing Against Assignee. The Assignor will not commence, institute
or cause to be commenced or instituted any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or
liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings under any United States federal or state bankruptcy
or similar law, against the Assignee or join in the commencement of any proceeding against the
Assignee under any such law.

          6. Sale. It is the intention of the parties that the conveyance of the Insurance
Premium Loans hereunder constitute a sale and not pledges of security for a loan and the parties
will treat such conveyance as a sale for tax and accounting purposes. The parties acknowledge and
agree that the transactions contemplated by this Assignment Agreement shall be, and shall be
treated as a purchase by the Assignor and a sale by the Assignee of the Insurance Premium Loans
hereunder, and not as a lending transaction or the grant of a security interest in the Insurance
Premium Loans hereunder, such that the Insurance Premium Loans hereunder shall not be part of the
bankruptcy estate of the Assignor under Section 541 of the Bankruptcy Code or subject to the
automatic stay under Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar law. However, if the
conveyances of such Insurance Premium Loans were not characterized by a court of law as sales of
Insurance Premium Loans or a court of law determined that the consideration for the conveyance of
the Insurance Premium Loans hereunder did not represent fair value, then such conveyances of such
Insurance Premium Loans shall be considered a capital contribution to the Assignee (or, in the case
where the consideration for the conveyances of the Insurance Premium Loans did not represent fair
value, capital contributions to the extent of any shortfall in fair value).

7

 

          7. Settlement Date. Following the execution of this Assignment Agreement by the
Assignor and the Assignee, it will be delivered by the Assignor to the Collateral Agent and the
Insurance Collateral Agent. The effective date of this Assignment Agreement (the “Settlement Date”)
shall be the latest of (a) the date of the execution hereof by the Assignor and the Assignee, (b)
the date this Assignment Agreement has been delivered to the Collateral Agent and the Insurance
Collateral Agent, (c) the settlement date specified on Annex I, and (d) the receipt by Assignor of
the Purchase Price specified in Annex I.

          8. Rights. As of the Settlement Date (a) the Assignee shall be a party to the Loan
Documentation Package and, to the extent of the interest assigned pursuant to this Assignment
Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender thereunder, and (b) the Assignor shall, to
the extent of the interest assigned pursuant to this Assignment Agreement, subject to the
provisions of any Servicing Agreement, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations
under the Loan Documentation Package.

          9. Adjustments. The Assignor and the Assignee shall make all appropriate adjustments
in payments under the Loan Documentation Package for periods prior to the Settlement Date directly
between themselves on the Settlement Date.

          10. Governing Law. THIS ASSIGNMENT AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND
ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

          11. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY
IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS ASSIGNMENT AGREEMENT OR
ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO, AND AGREES THAT ANY SUCH ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM
SHALL BE TRIED BEFORE A COURT AND NOT BEFORE A JURY.

          12. Counterparts. This Assignment Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so
executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all of which taken together shall
constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Assignment
Agreement by facsimile or electronic mail shall be equally effective as delivery of an original
executed counterpart.

          13. Indemnification. Without limiting any other rights that the Assignee may have
hereunder or under any applicable law, the Assignor hereby agrees to indemnify the Assignee and the
Indemnitees from and against any and all amounts awarded against or incurred by any of them, and
arising out of or resulting from this Assignment Agreement or the activities of the Assignor in
connection herewith or in respect of any Insurance Premium Loan in which an interest has been
transferred hereunder or related Life Insurance Policy that are sustained as a result of:

               (i) any representation, warranty or covenant made by the Assignor under this Assignment
Agreement, or any other document, certificate or report

8

 

delivered by the Assignor hereunder that was incorrect in any material respect when made or
deemed made or that the Assignor failed to perform;

               (ii) the failure by the Assignor to comply with this Assignment Agreement, the Transaction
Documents, the Loan Documents, or any Requirement of Law with respect to any Insurance Premium Loan
or Life Insurance Policy;

               (iii) any commingling by the Assignor of Collections with other funds of the Assignor or any
of its Affiliates; or

               (iv) any breach by the Assignor of any obligation under any Insurance Premium Loan in which an
interest has been transferred hereunder or related Life Insurance Policy.

     The foregoing indemnity excludes (a) losses on Insurance Premium Loans in which an interest
has been transferred hereunder to the extent reimbursement therefor would constitute credit
recourse to the Assignor for nonpayment of any Insurance Premium Loan in which an interest has been
transferred hereunder by the related obligor and (b) any income or franchise taxes or similar taxes
(or any interest or penalties on them).

          14. Amendment. This Assignment Agreement may be amended from time to time by the
Assignor and the Assignee in writing with the prior written consent of the Agents and the Required
Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereby agree that no amendment, modification or
waiver of, or consent with respect to, any provision of this Assignment Agreement that (a) prior to
the occurrence of a Credit Event (as defined in the Collateral Value Insurance Policy) would, in
the reasonable belief of any party hereto, be likely to adversely affect the interests of the
Collateral Value Insurer shall in any event be made or become effective unless the same shall be
consented to by the Collateral Value Insurer in writing or (b) following the occurrence of a Credit
Event, would, in the reasonable belief of any party hereto, be likely to adversely affect the
interests of the Contingent Collateral Value Insurer shall in any event be made or become effective
unless the same shall be consented to by the Contingent Collateral Value Insurer in writing. In all
events, copies of any amendments to this Agreement shall be promptly provided to (x) the Collateral
Value Insurer prior to the occurrence of a Credit Event and (y) the Contingent Collateral Value
Insurer following the occurrence of a Credit Event, by the Assignee following execution thereof.
Each of the parties hereto agrees that the Collateral Value Insurer and the Contingent Collateral
Value Insurer are third party beneficiaries solely with respect to this Section 14, and shall have

EXHIBIT J

FORM OF MASTER PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT

          This
MASTER PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT, dated as
of                , 2009 (the “Agreement”), between Imperial
Premium Finance, LLC, a Florida limited liability company (the “Originator”) and Imperial PFC
Financing II, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company (the “Participant”).

          In consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants herein contained, and for other good
and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by the
parties hereto, the parties hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I.

this Agreement shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Financing Agreement
or, if not in the Financing Agreement, in the Glossary of Defined Terms attached hereto as Exhibit
A.

          SECTION 1.02 Usage of Terms.

          (a) The words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this
Agreement, including the Glossary of Defined Terms, shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and
not to any particular provision of this Agreement; article, section, subsection, exhibit and
schedule references contained in this Agreement are references to articles, sections, subsections,
exhibits and schedules in or to this Agreement unless otherwise specified; with respect to all
terms in this Agreement, the singular includes the plural and the plural the singular; words
importing any gender include the other genders; references to “writing” include printing, typing,
lithography and other means of reproducing words in a visible form; references to agreements and

not prohibited by this Agreement; references to Persons include their permitted successors and
assigns; references to laws include their amendments and supplements, the rules and regulations
thereunder and any successors thereto; and the term “including” means “including without
limitation.”

          SECTION 1.03 Computation of Time Periods. Unless otherwise stated in this Agreement,
in the computation of a period of time from a specified date to a later specified date, the word
“from” means “from and including” and the words “to” and “until” each means “to but excluding.”

 

 

ARTICLE II.

TRANSFERS OF INTERESTS IN INSURANCE PREMIUM LOANS

          SECTION 2.01 Transfers of Interests in Insurance Premium Loans. On the terms and
subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the Originator shall, on the Effective Date and from
time to time thereafter, sell and transfer to the Participant without recourse, and the Participant
shall, on the Effective Date and from time to time thereafter purchase from the Originator (any
such sale, transfer, purchase and acquisition is herein referred to as a “Transfer”), a
participation interest in each Insurance Premium Loan originated by the Originator in an Applicable
Licensed State.

ARTICLE III.

PARTICIPATIONS

          SECTION 3.01 Transfers. (a) On the terms and conditions set forth herein, during the
Effective Period and on and as of the related Transfer Effective Date, the Originator hereby sells,
transfers and assigns to the Participant, and the Participant hereby purchases and acquires from
the Originator, with respect to each Insurance Premium Loan made by the Originator in an Applicable
Licensed State identified in a Participation Certificate (as defined herein), a participation
evidencing a 100% undivided beneficial ownership interest (each, a “Participation”) in all of the
Originator’s right, title and interest in, to and under (i) such Insurance Premium Loan, the
related promissory note and all other documents in the Loan Documentation Package for such
Insurance Premium Loan and all right, title and interest of the Originator in the Collateral
(including any related Life Insurance Policies) and (ii) all Collections thereon received by the
Originator on or after the Transfer Effective Date, including all cash proceeds received with
respect to such Insurance Premium Loans and all related security (including “proceeds” as defined
in the UCC of the jurisdiction whose law governs the perfection of an interest in such Insurance
Premium Loans). On each Transfer Effective Date, the Participant and the Originator shall execute a
participation certificate in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto (each a “Participation
Certificate”). Each Participation Certificate shall be deemed to incorporate in its entirety, the
terms and conditions of this Agreement and all representations, warranties, agreements and
covenants made hereunder shall be deemed to have been made in respect of the Insurance Premium
Loans the subject of the Participation Certificate as of the applicable Transfer Effective Date.

          (b) The parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the conveyance of the Insurance Premium Loans
is being effected hereunder by Participations instead of outright assignments and (ii) accordingly,
the sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance of the Participations in the Insurance Premium Loans
hereunder shall have the consequence that the Originator holds legal title and not an equitable
interest in such Insurance Premium Loans and the Participant holds 100% of the equitable interest
in such Insurance Premium Loans. The Originator acknowledges and agrees that, to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law, it holds legal title to such Insurance Premium Loans as trustee for
the benefit of the Participant and its successors and assigns. However, notwithstanding any other
provision herein, the Originator and the Participant agree and acknowledge that the Originator
shall remain the lender of record

2

 

on all Insurance Premium Loans in which a Participation has been transferred hereunder. The
parties acknowledge and agree that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be, and
shall be treated as a purchase by the Participant and a sale by the Originator of Participations in
the Insurance Premium Loans hereunder, and not as a lending transaction or the grant of a security
interest in Participations in the Insurance Premium Loans hereunder, such that the Participations
in the Insurance Premium Loans hereunder shall not be part of the bankruptcy estate of the
Originator under Section 541 of the Bankruptcy Code or subject to the automatic stay under Section
362 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar law.

          (c) Subject to Section 5.03, the Participations sold, transferred, assigned and conveyed
hereunder in such Insurance Premium Loans are final and irrevocable from and after the Transfer
Effective Date, and neither the Participant nor the Originator shall have any right to require that
any such Participation terminate or be repurchased by the Originator from the Participant and be
extinguished.

          (d) It is the intention of the parties that the conveyance of the Insurance Premium Loans to
the Participant effected by this Agreement constitute sales of Participations in such Insurance
Premium Loans and not pledges of security for a loan. However, if the conveyances of such Insurance
Premium Loans were not characterized by a court of law as sales of Participations or a court of law
determined that the consideration for the Participations did not represent fair value, then such
conveyances of such Insurance Premium Loans shall be considered a capital contribution to the
Participant (or, in the case where the consideration for the Participations did not represent fair
value, capital contributions to the extent of any shortfall in fair value).

          SECTION 3.02 Payment of Purchase Price. In consideration of the Transfer of each
Participation from the Originator to the Participant as provided in Section 3.01, on each Transfer
Effective Date the Participant agrees to pay the Originator an amount equal to the Purchase Price
for each such Participation purchased by the Participant hereunder.

          (a) Initial Purchase Price Payment. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in
this Agreement, the Participant agrees to pay to the Originator the Purchase Price in cash for the
purchase to be made from the Originator on the Effective Date.

          (b) Subsequent Purchase Price Payments. On each Transfer Effective Date subsequent to the
Effective Date, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the
Participant shall pay to the Originator the Purchase Price for the Participations being sold by the
Originator on such Transfer Effective Date in cash.

          SECTION 3.03 Payments to Participant. Whenever the Originator receives or collects a
payment in respect of any Insurance Premium Loan subject to a Participation, it will pay over the
same to the Participant in the same funds as received promptly after its receipt thereof and in any
event within one Business Day of its receipt thereof.

ARTICLE IV.

CONDITIONS TO EFFECTIVENESS AND PURCHASES

          SECTION 4.01 Conditions Precedent to Initial Transfer. The initial Transfer hereunder

evidencing the incumbency of such officers).

          (c) Written search reports certified by a search service acceptable to the Participant,

financing statements (none of which shall cover any Collateral or interests therein or proceeds of
any thereof), and tax, ERISA and judgment lien search reports from a Person satisfactory to the
Participant showing no evidence of such lien filed against the Originator.

          (d) Copies of proper amendment or termination statements, if any, necessary to release all

connection therewith shall have been executed and delivered, and all conditions thereto shall have
been satisfied.

opinion of Foley & Lardner, LLP, counsel to the Participant and the Originator, in form and
substance satisfactory to the Agents, and as to such other matters as the Collateral Agent may
reasonably request, including, without limitation, non-consolidation, true sale and true
participation opinions.

          (g) All legal matters incident to the execution and delivery of this Agreement and to the
purchases by the Participant of a Participation from the Originator shall be satisfactory to
counsel for the Participant.

          SECTION 4.02 Conditions Precedent to All Transfers. The Transfer to take place on the
initial Transfer Effective Date and each Transfer to take place on a subsequent Transfer Effective
Date hereunder shall be subject to the further conditions precedent that:

4

 

          (a) On or prior to such Transfer Effective Date, the Originator (or the Servicer on its
behalf) shall, at its own expense, have marked its records related to each Insurance Premium Loan
in which a Participation has been transferred hereunder with a notation, acceptable to the
Participant, stating that a Participation in such Insurance Premium Loan, the related promissory
note and all other documents in the Loan Documentation Package for such Insurance Premium Loan and
Collections with respect thereto and other proceeds thereof, has been sold in accordance with this
Agreement, and the Originator further agrees not to alter such file designation with respect to any
applicable Insurance Premium Loan in which a Participation has been transferred hereunder during
the term of this Agreement;

          (b) On each Transfer Effective Date, the following statements shall be true:

          (i) all of the Originator’s representations and warranties contained in Section 5.01
are correct on and as of such date as though made on and as of such date; and

          (ii) no event has occurred and is continuing, or would result from such Transfer, that
constitutes an Event of Termination or would constitute an Event of Termination but for the
requirement that notice be given or that time elapse or both;

          (c) On each Transfer Effective Date, the Originator and the Participant shall have executed a
Participation Certificate for each Insurance Premium Loan for which a Participation has been
transferred hereunder;

          (d) On each Transfer Effective Date, the Originator shall have complied with all of its
covenants hereunder and shall have fulfilled in all material respects all of its obligations
hereunder;

          (e) As of each Transfer Effective Date, no Originator shall be insolvent;

          The acceptance by the Originator of the Purchase Price for any Participation shall be deemed
to be a representation and warranty by the Originator as to the matters set forth in this Section.

ARTICLE V.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

          SECTION 5.01 Representations and Warranties of the Originator. The Originator hereby
represents and warrants as to itself to the Participant as of the Effective Date and each Transfer
Effective Date (or such other date as expressly provided below) that:

          (a) Organization and Good Standing. The Originator has been duly organized and is
validly existing as a limited liability company in good standing under the laws of the state of its
incorporation or formation, and has power and authority to own its properties and to conduct its
business as such properties shall be currently owned and such business is presently conducted.

5

 

          (b) Due Qualification. The Originator is duly qualified to do business (or is exempt
from such qualification requirements) and has obtained all necessary licenses and approvals in each
jurisdiction in which failure to so qualify or to obtain such licenses or approvals would have a
material adverse effect on the Originator’s ability to perform its obligations as the Originator
under this Agreement.

          (c) Due Authorization. The Originator’s execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement and the other agreements and instruments executed or to be executed by the Originator
contemplated by this Agreement, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the
Originator.

          (d) Binding Obligation. This Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding
obligation of the Originator enforceable against the Originator in accordance with its terms,
except as enforceability may be limited by insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar
laws affecting creditors’ rights generally or by general principles of equity whether considered in
a suit at law or in equity.

          (e) No Conflict. The Originator’s execution and delivery of this Agreement, its
performance of the transactions contemplated hereby and its fulfillment of the terms hereof
applicable to the Originator do not (i) contravene the Originator’s organizational or governing
documents, (ii) conflict with or violate any applicable law, (iii) violate any provision of, or
require any filing, registration, consent or approval under, any law presently in effect having
applicability to the Originator, except for such filings, registrations, consents or approvals as
have already been obtained or made and are in full force and effect, (iv) conflict with, result in
any breach of (A) any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse
of time or both) a default under any Insurance Premium Loan or (B) any of the terms or provisions
of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) a default under any indenture,
contract, agreement, mortgage, deed of trust or other instrument to which the Originator is a party
or by which it or its properties or assets are bound.

          (f) No Proceedings. There are no proceedings, injunctions, writs, restraining orders
or investigations pending or, to the best knowledge of the Originator, threatened against the
Originator before any governmental authority (i) asserting the illegality, invalidity or
unenforceability, or seeking any determination or ruling that would affect the legality, validity
or enforceability, of the Loan Documents, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, (ii)
seeking to prevent the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents,
this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, (iii) seeking any determination or ruling that,
if adversely determined, could have a material and adverse effect on the financial condition or
operations of the Originator or the validity or enforceability of, or the performance by the
Originator of its obligations under, this Agreement or (iv) seeking to affect adversely the income
tax attributes or other tax attributes of the Originator under the U.S. federal or the State of
Florida, as applicable, tax systems. There are no proceedings, injunctions, writs, restraining
orders or investigations pending with respect to any Insurance Premium Loan a Participation in
which is being sold to the Participant, or the related Life Insurance Policy, before any
governmental authority asserting the illegality, invalidity or unenforceability, or seeking any

6

 

determination or ruling that would affect the legality, validity or enforceability, of any
such Insurance Premium Loan or the related Life Insurance Policy.

          (g) No Consents. No authorization, consent, license, order or approval of, or
registration or declaration with, any Person, including any governmental authority, is required for
the Originator in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Originator or
the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, except for (i) the filing of the financing
statements or other documents required to have been filed on or prior to the Effective Date or
applicable Transfer Effective Date pursuant to Section 4.01, all of which were so filed and are in
full force and effect, (ii) the filing from time to time of any amendments, assignments or
continuation statements which may become applicable pursuant to this Agreement or (iii) the
exercise by the Participant or its assigns of the rights provided for in this Agreement or the
remedies in respect of any Insurance Premium Loans a Participation in which is sold, transferred,
assigned or otherwise conveyed by the Originator to the Participant pursuant to this Agreement.

          (h) Liens. Each Insurance Premium Loan in which a Participation has been transferred
hereunder is owned by the Originator free and clear of any Lien (subject to the Participations
therein), and the Originator has not either created or consented to the creation of any Lien
affecting any Insurance Premium Loan in which a Participation has been transferred hereunder or any
related Life Insurance Policy other than the Liens contemplated by this Agreement and the other
Transaction Documents.

          (i) Location. As of the Effective Date, the chief executive office of the Originator,
and the office where the Originator keeps its copy of the Transaction Documents and Records, is
located at the Originator’s address specified in Section 9.03.

          (j) Valid Transfers. This Agreement constitutes a valid sale, transfer and assignment
to the Participant of Participations in the Originator’s entire right, title and interest in and to
the Insurance Premium Loans in which a Participation has been transferred hereunder, whether now
existing or hereafter created (including all monies due or to become due with respect to such
Insurance Premium Loans, all proceeds (including “proceeds” as defined in the UCC of the
jurisdiction whose law governs the perfection of an interest in such Insurance Premium Loans) of
such Insurance Premium Loans and all cash proceeds of any related security). If an Event of
Bankruptcy were to occur with respect to the Originator, the right to retain the Insurance Premium
Loans (including all monies due or to become due with respect to such Insurance Premium Loans, all
proceeds of such Insurance Premium Loans and all cash proceeds of any related security) would not
be deemed to be property of the Originator. If and to the extent the sale of the Participations in
the Insurance Premium Loans under this Agreement is not deemed to be or is not recognized as a sale
by a court of law, the conveyance of the interest in the Insurance Premium Loans created on or
after the applicable Transfer Effective Date, shall to the extent set forth in Section 3.01(d) be
considered a capital contribution to the Participant.

          (k) Solvency. The Originator is, solvent and will not become insolvent after giving
effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Originator is currently repaying all
of its indebtedness as such indebtedness becomes due; and, after giving effect to the

7

 

transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Originator will have adequate capital to
conduct its business as presently conducted and as contemplated by this Agreement.

          (1) Compliance. The Originator has complied, and will comply on each Transfer
Effective Date, with all Requirements of Law with respect to it, its business and properties and
all Insurance Premium Loans and the Life Insurance Policy related thereto. The Originator has
obtained and will maintain all applicable permits, certifications and licenses (including all
licenses to originate Insurance Premium Loans) necessary with respect to its business and
properties and all Insurance Premium Loans and the Life Insurance Policy related thereto.

          (m) No Rescission. Neither any Insurance Premium Loans in which a Participation is
sold hereunder nor the related Life Insurance Policy has been subordinated or rescinded or, except
as disclosed in writing to the Participant, amended in any manner.

          (n) No Event of Bankruptcy. No Event of Bankruptcy has occurred with respect to the
Originator.

          (o) Fraudulent Conveyance. The Originator is not entering into the transactions
contemplated hereby with any intent of hindering, delaying or defrauding creditors.

          (p) Insurance Premium Loans.

          (i) As of each Transfer Effective Date, each Insurance Premium Loan in which a
Participation is granted or sold by the Originator hereunder is an Eligible Insurance
Premium Loan and the grant, sale and purchase hereunder of a Participation in such Insurance
Premium Loans and Collections arising thereunder do not conflict with, result in a breach of
any of the provisions of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) a
default under, any agreements evidencing such Insurance Premium Loan;

          (ii) As of any Transfer Effective Date, each Insurance Premium Loan on such date is the
valid, binding and enforceable obligation of each obligor thereunder;

          (iii) As of any Transfer Effective Date, each Insurance Premium Loan on such date was
originated by the Originator in the ordinary course of the Originator’s premium finance
lending activities and in accordance with all Requirements of Law;

          (iv) As of any Transfer Effective Date, the information set forth in the applicable
Participation Certificate with respect to each Insurance Premium Loan therein was correct;

          (v) With respect to each Insurance Premium Loan in which a

          Participation is granted or sold by the Originator, the Originator represents and
warrants that each such Insurance Premium Loans has been originated in accordance with the
applicable criteria set forth in the Transaction Documents;

8

 

          (vi) As of any Transfer Effective Date, no payment default exists with respect to any
Insurance Premium Loan;

          (vii) As of any Transfer Effective Date, no event or circumstance under Section V.A or
Section V.B. of the Collateral Value Policy has occurred;

          (viii) As of any Transfer Effective Date, the Originator (A) has not committed a
Prohibited Act (as defined in the Collateral Value Policy) and (B) is not aware that any
Prohibited Act has been committed by any Person with respect to an Insurance Premium Loan in
which a Participation is granted or sold by the Originator; and

          (ix) As of any Transfer Effective Date, no policy loan, cash withdrawal or surrender
has occurred with respect to the Life Insurance Policy related to the Insurance Premium Loan
in which a Participation is granted or sold by the Originator.

          (q) Legal Names. As of the Effective Date, the legal name of the Originator is as set
forth on the signature pages of this Agreement.

          (r) ERISA. With respect to any Plan maintained or participated in during the past six
years by the Originator or any of its ERISA Affiliates, (i) such Plan complied and complies in all
material respects with all Requirements of Law, (ii) a Reportable Event has not occurred with
respect to any such Plan, (iii) such Plan has not been terminated and (iv) no funding deficiency
has occurred in respect of any such Plan, except, in each case, where the occurrence of any of the
foregoing could not be reasonably expected to result in liability to such Seller or any such ERISA
Affiliate in excess of $50,000 or result in a Lien against the Participations, or any related
Insurance Premium Loans or related Life Insurance Policies (or any portion thereof). With respect
to any such Plan that is intended to qualify for special tax treatment under Sections 401(a) or
403(a) of the Code, such Plan is in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code for
such qualifications.

          (s) Margin Regulations. The Originator will not use any of the proceeds of the
Purchase Price for any purpose which will conflict with or contravene any of Regulations T, U or X
promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board from time to time.

          (t) Reasonably Equivalent Value. The Participant has given reasonably equivalent value
to the Originator in consideration for each purchase of a Participation under this Agreement, no
such transfer has been made for or on account of an antecedent debt owed by the Originator to the
Participant, and no such transfer is or may be voidable or subject to avoidance under any
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law.

          (u) Accuracy of Information. All certificates, reports, statements, documents and
other information furnished to the Participant by or on behalf of the Originator pursuant to any
provision of this Agreement, or in connection with or pursuant to any amendment or modification of,
or waiver under, this Agreement are, and shall, at the time the same are so furnished, be complete
and correct in all material respects on the date the same are furnished.

9

 

          (v) Taxes. The Originator has filed or has caused to be filed all federal, state and
local tax returns which it is required to file and has paid all Taxes, assessments and other
governmental charges due in respect of its respective returns, except to the extent that any such
Taxes, assessments or other governmental charges are being contested in good faith and as to which
the Originator has set aside on its books adequate reserves and in respect of which no Liens have
attached to or been filed against the Originator or any of its properties. There are no agreements
or waivers extending the statutory period of limitations applicable to any federal income tax
return of the Originator for any period.

          (w) Investment Company Act. The Originator is not an “investment company” within the
meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

          (x) Quality of Title. No effective financing statement or other similar instrument is
in effect covering any of the Insurance Premium Loans in which a Participation has been transferred
hereunder or any interest therein that has been filed, authorized, acknowledged or otherwise
permitted by the Originator or any Affiliate thereof in any recording office except for financing

ARTICLE VI.

CONFIDENTIALITY

          SECTION 6.01 General Duty. Each party hereto agrees that (i) each of the Transaction
Documents and its contents, (ii) each Loan Documentation Package and its contents, (iii) all
medical and personal information concerning the Underlying Lives and Premium Finance Borrowers,
(iv) the identity of and information concerning payments to brokers or other similar parties
involved in the sourcing, negotiation and funding of any Insurance Premium Loan, (v) any
information supplied by either party and marked confidential, restricted or proprietary or that
otherwise reasonably could be expected to be confidential in nature regarding its customers and

14

 

prospective customers, account information, products and services, vendors, financial,
technical or marketing information, business or marketing strategies, operating policies and
procedures, in whatever form, in each case to the extent not in the public domain when transmitted
by one party to another, not published or otherwise become part of the public domain (through no
fault of the receiving party) after transmission, not known to the receiving party prior to
transmission or through disclosure by a third party with a lawful right to make such disclosure
(and not to the knowledge of the recipient of such information bound by any duty to the
transmitting party to keep such information confidential) and not independently developed by the
receiving party, comprise “Confidential Information”.

          SECTION 6.02 Reasonable Precautions. Each party hereto shall safeguard and hold as
confidential all Confidential Information, and shall use such information solely for the purposes
contemplated by the Transaction Documents, in each case other than its own Confidential Information
to the extent appropriately disclosed to others in connection with its business unrelated to the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Each party hereto shall take such
precautions as may be lawful and reasonably necessary to restrain its officers, directors,
employees, agents or representatives from disclosure of all Confidential Information to any other
Person other than to its own officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives that have a
need to know such information in order for such party to perform its obligations under the
Transaction Documents, other than its own Confidential Information to the extent appropriately
disclosed to others in connection with its business unrelated to the transactions contemplated by
the Transaction Documents. If any party reasonably and in good faith determines that it is required
by law (or by subpoena, discovery request, search warrant or similar legal process) to disclose any
Confidential Information to a third party (other than a regulator that regulates the Originator or
any of its Affiliates), such party promptly shall notify the other of such situation or of its
receipt of such legal process and shall reasonably cooperate with such other party in an effort to
quash such legal process or to seek a protective order or other appropriate relief. Upon the
termination or expiration of this Agreement, each party hereto promptly shall return to the other
all Confidential Information of such other party that is within its custody and control. Each party
hereto agrees that legal remedies may be insufficient for a breach of the duties specified in this
Section 6.02, and that each party shall be entitled to injunctive relief to prevent disclosure of
and cause the return of Confidential Information as contemplated herein, in addition to any other
legal or equitable remedies available to such party.

          SECTION 6.03 Dissemination of Certain Information. Each party hereto shall at all
times comply with all laws and regulations applicable to it in the performance of its duties
hereunder and affecting the Insurance Premium Loans and related Collateral (including any Life
Insurance Policies) and the negotiation, documentation, funding and servicing thereof, including
laws and regulations regarding the privacy of any Underlying Life or Premium Finance Borrower and
the maintenance of all information obtained by the Originator and/or the Participant in the
performance of their duties in accordance with applicable laws and regulations concerning the
dissemination of such information; provided that any party may disclose such information to
competent judicial or regulatory authorities in response to a written request therefrom for such
information or as otherwise reasonably and in faith determined to be required by law; provided,
however, that (i) no party shall disclose such information to such judicial or regulatory
authorities before the date set forth in such request therefor and (ii) each party shall provide
the other with prompt notice to the extent permitted by law or regulation of such request,

of the Originator and (iv) ensure proper disposal of consumer and customer information as required
by applicable law, in each case only with respect to customer information actually in the
possession and control of the Participant received in connection with an Insurance Premium Loan.
The Participant agrees promptly to notify the Originator of any security breaches that relate to
Confidential Information supplied by the Originator.

Local Counsel Opinion Questions

1. What state’s insurable interest laws would a state court (or a federal court) apply to determine
whether an irrevocable life insurance trust (or its trustee) has an insurable interest in the life
of the insured (assuming that a case would be brought in and remain in either state or federal
court in the state where the trustee with authority over the policy and loan was located (the
“State”), rather than a state or federal court in the home state of the insured)?

2. Will the life insurance policy issued in the proposed lending transaction be supported by a
valid insurable interest under the law of the State, including, if applicable, does the State’s law
address or provide that a trustee of a trust, or the trust itself, has an insurable interest in the
life of the grantor or settlor of such trust?

3. Does the State have a usury law that is applicable to the individual lending transactions in the
Imperial program; if so, what is the maximum permissible interest rate under the usury law; and if
relevant, whether any loan origination fees and any pass-through of the life insurance policy
premium and other fees to be charged would be included as part of “interest” under such usury law?

4. Does the State have an insurance premium finance law and, if so, does such law apply to the
individual lending transactions in the Imperial program? If so, would the lending transactions and
the related loan documents be in compliance with such premium finance law? If there is not a
premium finance law in effect in the State, or if there is not an Imperial entity that is a
licensed premium finance company in the State, do the State’s general consumer lending laws apply
to the Imperial loans and/or to the Imperial lender? If so, would the individual lending
transactions and the related Loan Documents be in compliance with the general consumer lending
laws?

5. Does the State have a life or viatical settlement law and, if so, does it apply to the
individual lending transactions in the Imperial program?

6. Are life insurance policies generally assignable to a lender as security under the State’s law?

GUARANTY

     THIS GUARANTY is entered into as of November ___, 2009 by IMPERIAL HOLDINGS, LLC, a Florida
limited liability company (the “Guarantor”), and EBC ASSET MANAGEMENT, INC., a New York
corporation, as Collateral Agent (“Collateral Agent”) in favor of and for the benefit of
Cedar Lane Capital, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Lender,” which for all
purposes of this Guaranty shall include any assignees, whether or not by operation of law, and
successors thereto).

RECITALS

     WHEREAS, pursuant to a financing agreement among Lender and Imperial PFC Financing II, LLC, a
Georgia limited liability company (“Borrower”) dated September 14, 2009 (as amended, supplemented
or otherwise modified from time to time (“Financing Agreement”)), Lender has agreed to make Term
Loans to Borrower, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein;

     WHEREAS, pursuant to the Financing Agreement, the Lender agreed to make one or more Term Loans
to the Borrower prior to the Term Loan Commitment Termination Date, in the case of all Term Loans,
in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed the amount of the Lender’s Term Loan Commitment;

     WHEREAS, the aggregate principal amount of any Term Loan made on any borrowing date shall not
exceed the lesser of (x) the undrawn Total Term Loan Commitment at such time, and (y) the Maximum
Tranche Amount with respect to any applicable Insurance Premium Loans being acquired by the
Borrower with the proceeds of such Term Loan;

     WHEREAS, the Lender desires to secure the guaranty by Guarantor of five percent (5%) of each
Term Loan made under the Financing Agreement;

     WHEREAS, Guarantor indirectly owns 100% of the equity interests in the Borrower and will
derive benefits from the extension of Term Loans under the Financing Agreement;

     WHEREAS, capitalized terms referred to herein without definition have the meaning given to
them in the Financing Agreement;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants hereinafter
contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the adequacy and sufficiency of which is
hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

     1. Conditions to Liability. Subject to the limitation set forth herein, the Guarantor
hereby unconditionally guaranties the punctual payment in full (in immediately available funds)
when due of five percent (5%) of the amount outstanding (including interest accrued thereon) under
each Term Loan made or arising under the Financing Agreement (the “Guaranteed Obligations”).
Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else herein to the contrary, before making a claim or
proceeding against the Guarantor under this Guaranty, (a) the Lender shall be obligated to proceed
against the Borrower or any other person liable on the Guaranteed Obligations and to proceed
against any security held by the Borrower or any other person, or to pursue any other remedy in the
Lender’s power whatsoever to collect the Term Loans, and an Event of Default involving the failure
of the Borrower in paying any interest or principal due under a Term Loan or Tranche (determined
without regard to, and by disregarding the effects of,

Page 1 of 10

 

any acceleration of amounts due under a Term Loan or Tranche prior to the applicable Final
Maturity Date) shall have existed for at least thirty (30) consecutive days or (b) there shall be a
default in full payment of the Covered Loan Amount under an Eligible Insurance Premium Loan
(determined without regard to, and by disregarding the effects of, any acceleration of amounts due
under such loan prior to the applicable maturity date) owned actually or beneficially through a
participation by the Borrower (a “Client Default”) and such Client Default shall have existed for
sixty (60) days; provided further, in the event of a Client Default, the amount due under this
guaranty as a result of such event shall be limited to the shortfall in collections arising as a
consequence thereof (taking into account any payments from the Collateral Value Insurer and
Contingent Collateral Value Insurer and any proceeds from the disposition of any collateral for
such Eligible Insurance Premium Loan) and the Guarantor shall be subrogated to the Lender’s rights
to the shortfall in respect to such Client Default following payment.

     2. Waiver.

          (a) The Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law: (i) any release, amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other
guaranty or any document relating to any security for or in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations;
(ii) all notices which may be required by statute, rule of law or otherwise to preserve any rights
against the Guarantor hereunder, including, without limitation, notice of the acceptance of this
Guaranty, or the creation, renewal, extension, modification or accrual of the Guaranteed
Obligations or notice of any other matters relating thereto, any presentment, demand, notice of
dishonor, protest, nonpayment of any damages or other amounts payable under the Financing
Agreement; (iii) any requirement for diligence in collection or protection of or realization upon
the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof or any collateral therefor; (iv) any requirement of
diligence; (v) any requirement to mitigate the damages resulting from a default by the Borrower
under the Financing Agreement; (vi) the occurrence of every other condition precedent to which the
Guarantor or the Borrower may otherwise be entitled; (vii) any lack of validity or enforceability
of the Financing Agreement, (vii) any exchange or release of, or non-perfection of any collateral
securing, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ix) any other circumstances which might
otherwise constitute a defense available to, or discharge of, the Guarantor; or (x) any and all
rights it may now or hereafter have under any agreement or at law or in equity (including, without
limitation, any law subrogating the Guarantor to the rights of the Lender) to assert any claim
against or seek contribution, indemnification or any other form of reimbursement from the Borrower
or any other party liable for payment of any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations for any payment
made by the Guarantor under or in connection with this Guaranty or otherwise.

          (b) The Lender may, at its election, exercise any right or remedy it may have against the
Borrower without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of the Guarantor hereunder and the
Guarantor waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any defense arising out of the
absence, impairment or loss of any right of reimbursement, contribution or subrogation or any other
right or remedy of the Guarantor against the Borrower, whether resulting from such election by the
Lender or otherwise. The Guarantor waives any defense arising by reason of any disability or other
defense of the Borrower or by reason of the cessation for any cause whatsoever of the liability,
either in whole or in part, of the Borrower to the Lender for the Guaranteed Obligations.

2

 

          (c) The Guarantor assumes the responsibility for being and keeping informed of the financial
condition of the Borrower and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the
Guaranteed Obligations and agrees that the Lender shall not have any duty to advise the Guarantor
of information regarding any condition or circumstance or any change in such condition or
circumstance. The Guarantor acknowledges that the Lender has not made any representations to the
Guarantor concerning the financial condition of the Borrower. The value of the consideration
received and to be received by the Guarantor is reasonably worth at least as much as the liability
and obligation of Guarantor incurred or arising under this Guaranty and all related papers and
arrangements.

     3. Parties. This Guaranty shall inure to the benefit of the Lender and its
successors, assigns or transferees, and shall be binding upon the Guarantor and his or her
respective heirs, successors and assigns; provided, that the Guarantor may not delegate or assign
any of the Guarantor’s duties or obligations under this Guaranty without the prior written consent
of the Lender.

     4. Notices. All notices and other communications provided for herein shall be in
writing and shall be delivered by hand or overnight courier service, mailed by U.S. mail, certified
with return receipt requested, or sent by telecopy (with confirmed receipt or followed by overnight
delivery) to the addresses (or telecopy numbers) set forth on the signature pages hereto. The
Guarantor or the Lender may change its address or telecopy number for notices and other
communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. All notices and other
communications given in accordance with the provisions of this Guaranty shall be deemed to have
been given on the date of receipt or, if mailed, the fifth (5th) business day following the date so
mailed, if earlier, or the next business day if sent by overnight courier.

     5. Right to Deal with the Borrower. At any time and from time to time, without
terminating, affecting or impairing the validity of this Guaranty or the obligations of the
Guarantor hereunder, the Lender and/or Agent may deal with the Borrower in the same manner and as
fully as if this Guaranty did not exist and shall be entitled, among other things, to grant the
Borrower, without notice or demand and without affecting the Guarantor’s liability hereunder, such
extension or extensions of time to perform, renew, compromise, accelerate or otherwise change the
time for payment of or otherwise change the terms of indebtedness or any part thereof contained in
or arising under the Financing Agreement or any other document evidencing obligations of the
Borrower to the Lender, or to waive any obligation of the Borrower to perform, any act or acts as
the Lender and/or Agent may deem advisable.

     6. Subrogation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any and
all rights and claims of the Guarantor against the Borrower or any of its property or against any
other person, arising by reason of any payment by the Guarantor to the Lender pursuant to the
provisions, or in respect, of this Guaranty shall be subordinate, junior and subject in right of
payment to the prior and indefeasible payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations to the Lender,
and until such time, the Guarantor shall have no right of subrogation, contribution or any similar
right and hereby waive any right to enforce any remedy the Lender may now or hereafter have against
the Borrower, any endorser or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations
and any right to participate in, or benefit from, any security given to the Lender to secure the
Guaranteed Obligations. All liens and security interests of the Guarantor,

3

 

whether now or hereafter arising and howsoever existing, in assets of the Borrower or any
assets securing the Guaranteed Obligations shall be and hereby are subordinated to the rights and
interests of the Lender in those assets until the prior and indefeasible final payment in full of
all of the Guaranteed Obligations to the Lender and termination of all financing arrangements
between the Borrower and the Lender. If any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor contrary to the
provisions of this Section 6 at any time when all the Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been
indefeasibly paid in full, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Lender and
shall forthwith be turned over in kind in the form received to the Lender (duly endorsed if
necessary) to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or
unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Financing Documents and this Guaranty.

     7. Representations and Warranties. The Guarantor hereby represents and warrants as

material tax liability against the Guarantor, and, to the knowledge of the Guarantor, no tax
assessment is pending against the Guarantor.

OF EXECUTION OR OTHERWISE) WITH RESPECT TO HIM OR HIS PROPERTY, THE GUARANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY
WAIVES SUCH IMMUNITY IN RESPECT OF HIS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS GUARANTY AND THE OTHER LOAN

     11. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL, ETC. THE GUARANTOR HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY
JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM CONCERNING ANY RIGHTS UNDER THIS GUARANTY OR THE
OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR UNDER ANY AMENDMENT, WAIVER, CONSENT, INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR OTHER
AGREEMENT DELIVERED OR WHICH IN THE FUTURE MAY BE DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH, OR

the enforcement, amendment, modification or waiver of or preservation of any rights under this

disbursements and expenses shall be added to, and constitute, Guaranteed Obligations.

     13. Further Assurances. The Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees to execute and

     14. Miscellaneous.

          (a) The Guarantor will make each payment hereunder in lawful money of the United States of
America and in immediately available funds to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders,
at such address specified by the Collateral Agent from time to time by notice to the Guarantor.

          (b) No amendment of any provision of this Guaranty shall be effective unless it is in writing
and signed by the Guarantor and the Collateral Agent, and no waiver of any provision of this
Guaranty, and no consent to any departure by the Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be
effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Guarantor and the Collateral Agent,
and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the
specific purpose for which given.

          (c) No failure on the part of any Agent or any Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising,
any right hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall
any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder or under any other Loan Document preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The rights and remedies of
the Agents and the Lenders provided herein and in the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are
in addition to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies provided by law. The rights of the
Agents and the Lenders under any Loan Document against any party thereto are not conditional or
contingent on any attempt by the Agents and the Lenders to exercise any of their rights under any
other Loan Document against such party or against any other Person.

          (d) Any provision of this Guaranty which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction
shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining portions hereof or thereof or affecting the
validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

          (e) This Guaranty shall (i) be binding on the Guarantor and its successors and assigns, and
(ii) inure, together with all rights and remedies of the Agents and the Lenders hereunder, to the
benefit of the Agents and the Lenders and their respective successors, transferees and assigns.
Without limiting the generality of clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence, to the extent
permitted by Section 12.07 of the Financing Agreement, any Lender may assign or otherwise transfer
its rights under the Financing Agreement or any other Loan Document to any other Person, and such
other Person shall thereupon become vested with all of the benefits in respect thereof granted to
the Lenders herein or otherwise. None of the rights or obligations of the Guarantor hereunder may
be assigned or otherwise transferred without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent.

          (f) This Guaranty and the other Loan Documents reflect the entire understanding of the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and shall not be contradicted or qualified by any
other agreement, oral or written, before the date hereof.

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

8

 

          (h) Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Guaranty by telefacsimile or electronic mail
shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Guaranty. Any
party delivering an executed counterpart of this Guaranty by telefacsimile or electronic mail also
shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Guaranty but the failure to deliver an
original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of
this Guaranty.

          (i) This Guaranty and the other Loan Documents (unless expressly provided to the contrary in
another Loan Document in respect of such other Loan Document) shall be governed by, and construed
in accordance with, the internal law of the State of New York applicable to contracts made and to
