     CREDIT AGREEMENT dated as of January 26, 2011 (this “Agreement”),
among UNCLE ACQUISITION 2010 CORP, a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”)
and the initial Closing Date Borrower hereunder (to be merged with and
into UCI INTERNATIONAL, INC.), UCI INTERNATIONAL, INC., a Delaware
corporation (the “Acquired Company”) (as successor by merger to Merger
Sub), UCI HOLDINGS LIMITED, a New Zealand limited liability company
(“Holdings”), UCI ACQUISITION HOLDINGS (NO. 1) CORP, a Delaware
corporation (“Acquisition Holdings (No. 1)”), UCI ACQUISITION HOLDINGS
(NO. 2) CORP, a Delaware corporation (“Acquisition Holdings (No. 2)”), the
Subsidiary Guarantors (such term and each other capitalized term used but
not defined in this introductory statement having the meaning given it in
Article I), the Lenders and CREDIT SUISSE AG, as administrative agent for
the Lenders (in such capacity, including any successor thereto, the
“Administrative Agent”).

     Holdings intends to acquire (the “Acquisition”), through Merger Sub, a Wholly Owned Subsidiary
of Holdings, all the Equity Interests of the Acquired Company, pursuant to the Merger Agreement.
In connection with the Acquisition, (a) Rank will contribute, through one or more parent companies
of Holdings, an aggregate amount of approximately $320,000,000 in cash to Holdings as common
equity, (b) Holdings will contribute, through one or more Subsidiaries, the amount so received
under clause (a) to Merger Sub as cash common equity (the equity contributions described in clauses
(a) and (b), collectively, the “Equity Contribution”), (c) Merger Sub will issue the Senior
Unsecured Notes, (d) Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Acquired Company (the “Merger”),
with the Acquired Company surviving as an indirect Wholly Owned Subsidiary of Holdings and assuming
by operation of law all of the obligations of Merger Sub as the Closing Date Borrower under this
Agreement and with the existing stockholders of the Acquired Company (subject to stockholder
dissent rights) receiving an aggregate amount of approximately $375,000,000 in cash (the “Merger
Consideration”), (e) on the Closing Date, the Acquired Company will (i) issue a redemption notice
to redeem all of the Acquired Company’s outstanding Floating Rate Senior PIK Notes due 2013 (the
“PIK Notes”) that have not been repurchased, repaid or redeemed on or prior to the Closing Date and
(ii) comply with the provisions of the indenture governing the PIK Notes dated as of December 20,
2006 (the “PIK Notes Indenture”), to satisfy and discharge such indenture as to all such PIK Notes,
(f) the Acquired Company and its subsidiaries will repay in full all amounts due or outstanding
under the Existing Credit Agreement, and the Existing Credit Agreement will be
terminated, and (g) a merger between United Components Inc. (“United Components”), a Wholly
Owned Subsidiary of the Acquired Company, and UCI Acquisition Holdings, Inc., a Wholly Owned
Subsidiary of the Acquired Company, will be effected, with the result that United Components will
be a direct Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Acquired Company (the “Consolidation Transaction” and,
together with the Acquisition and the

 

 

transactions described in clauses (a) to (f) above, the
“Acquisition Transactions”). Upon the effectiveness of the Merger, the Acquired Company will
succeed to all rights and obligations of Merger Sub by operation of law and all references herein
to the term “Closing Date Borrower” shall be deemed to be references to the Acquired Company.

     In connection with the Acquisition, the Closing Date Borrower has requested the Lenders to
extend credit in the form of (a) Term Loans on the Closing Date, in an aggregate principal amount
not in excess of $300,000,000, and (b) Revolving Loans at any time after the Closing Date and from
time to time prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, in an aggregate principal amount at any
time outstanding not in excess of $75,000,000. The Closing Date Borrower has requested the
Swingline Lender to extend credit, at any time and from time to time after the Closing Date and
until the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding
not in excess of $15,000,000. The Closing Date Borrower has requested the Issuing Banks to issue
Letters of Credit, in an aggregate face amount at any time outstanding not in excess of $50,000,000
under the Revolving Credit Commitments. The proceeds of the Term Loans are to be used solely to
(a) pay a portion of the Merger Consideration, (b) repurchase, repay or redeem the PIK Notes
tendered on or prior to the Closing Date, if any, and, on the Closing Date, to satisfy and
discharge the PIK Notes Indenture as to all remaining PIK Notes, (c) repay all amounts due or
outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement and (d) pay the premiums, fees and expenses
incurred in connection with the Acquisition Transactions. The proceeds of the Revolving Loans and
the Swingline Loans are to be used solely for general corporate purposes of Holdings and the
Subsidiaries. Letters of Credit are to be requested solely for general corporate purposes of
Holdings and the Subsidiaries.

     The Lenders are willing to extend such credit to the Closing Date Borrower, and the Issuing
Banks are willing to issue Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrowers and Holdings, in each
case on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein. Accordingly, the parties hereto

The Credits

     SECTION 2.01. Commitments. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon the
representations and warranties herein set forth, each Lender agrees, severally and not jointly, (i)
to make a Term Loan to the Closing Date Borrower on the Closing Date in a principal amount not to
exceed its Term Loan Commitment and (ii) to make Revolving Loans to the Borrowers, at any time and
from time to time on or after the Closing Date, and until the earlier of the Revolving Credit
Maturity Date and the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender in accordance
with the terms hereof and in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not
result in (x) such Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding its Revolving Credit Commitment or
(y) the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding the Total Revolving Credit Commitments.
Within the limits set forth in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence and subject to the terms,
conditions and limitations set forth herein, the Borrowers may borrow, pay or prepay and reborrow
Revolving Loans. Amounts paid or prepaid in respect of Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

     (b) Each Lender having an Incremental Term Loan Commitment or an Incremental Revolving
Credit Commitment, severally and not jointly, hereby agrees, subject to the terms and
conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties set forth herein and in the
applicable Incremental Assumption Agreement, to make Incremental Term Loans or Incremental
Revolving Loans, as applicable, to the Borrowers in an aggregate principal amount not to
exceed its

46

 

Incremental Term Loan Commitment or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment, as
applicable, and on the terms and conditions set forth in the applicable Incremental
Assumption Agreement. Amounts paid or prepaid in respect of Incremental Term Loans may not
be reborrowed.

     SECTION 2.02. Loans. (a) Each Loan (other than Swingline Loans) shall be made as part of a
Borrowing consisting of Loans of the applicable Class made by the Lenders ratably in accordance
with their respective applicable Commitments; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to
make any Loan shall not in itself relieve any other Lender of its obligation to lend hereunder (it
being understood, however, that no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender
to make any Loan required to be made by such other Lender). Except for Loans deemed made pursuant
to Section 2.02(f), the Loans comprising any Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount
that is (i) with respect to Eurocurrency Loans, an integral multiple of $500,000 and not less than
$2,000,000 (except, with respect to any Borrowing of Incremental Term Loans, Incremental Revolving
Loans, Other Revolving Loans or Other Term Loans, to the extent otherwise provided in the related
Incremental Assumption Agreement or Loan Modification Agreement, as applicable), (ii) with respect
to ABR Loans, an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $500,000 (except, with respect to
any Borrowing of Incremental Term Loans, Incremental Revolving Loans, Other Revolving Loans or
Other Term Loans, to the extent otherwise provided in the related Incremental Assumption
Agreement or Loan Modification Agreement, as applicable) or (iii) equal to the remaining available
balance of the applicable Commitments.

     (b) Subject to Sections 2.02(f), 2.08, 2.15 and 2.23(f), each Borrowing shall be
comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurocurrency Loans as the applicable Borrower may
request pursuant to Section 2.03. Each Lender may at its option make any Eurocurrency Loan
by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan;
provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the applicable
Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Borrowings of
more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided, however, that no Borrower
shall be entitled to request any Borrowing that, if made, would result in more than twelve
Eurocurrency Borrowings being outstanding hereunder at any time (or such greater number of
Eurocurrency Borrowings permitted by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion). For
purposes of the foregoing, Borrowings having different Interest Periods, regardless of
whether they commence on the same date, shall be considered separate Borrowings.

     (c) Except with respect to Loans made pursuant to Section 2.02(f), each Lender shall
make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to such account as the Administrative Agent may designate not
later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly
credit the amounts so received to an account in the name of the applicable Borrower,
designated by such Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request or, if a Borrowing shall
not occur

47

 

on such date because any condition precedent herein specified shall not have been
met, return the amounts so received to the respective Lenders.

     (d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to
the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative
Agent such Lender’s portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that
such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such
Borrowing in accordance with paragraph (c) above and the Administrative Agent may, in
reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower on such date a
corresponding amount. If the Administrative Agent shall have so made funds available then,
to the extent that such Lender shall not have made such portion available to the
Administrative Agent, such Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to repay to
the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with
interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to such Borrower
to but excluding the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at (i) in the
case of such Borrower, a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable at the time
to the Loans comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender,
a rate determined by the Administrative Agent to represent its cost of overnight or
short-term funds in the applicable currency (which determination shall be conclusive absent
manifest error). If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding
amount, such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan as part of such Borrowing for
purposes of this Agreement.

     (e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no Borrower shall be
entitled to request any Revolving Credit Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with
respect thereto would end after the Revolving Credit Maturity Date.

     (f) If the applicable Issuing Bank shall not have received from the applicable
Borrower the payment required to be made by Section 2.23(e) within the time specified in
such Section, such Issuing Bank will promptly notify the Administrative Agent of the
applicable L/C Disbursement and the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each
Revolving Credit Lender of such L/C Disbursement and its Pro Rata Percentage thereof. Each
Revolving Credit Lender shall pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the
Administrative Agent, an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such L/C
Disbursement (it being understood that (i) if the conditions precedent to borrowing set
forth in Sections 4.01(b) and (c) have been satisfied, such amount shall be deemed to
constitute an ABR Revolving Loan of such Lender and, to the extent of such payment, the
obligations of the applicable Borrower in respect of such L/C Disbursement shall be
discharged and replaced with the resulting ABR Revolving Credit Borrowing and (ii) if such
conditions precedent to borrowing have not been satisfied, then any such amount paid by any
Revolving Credit Lender shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the applicable
Borrower from its obligation to reimburse such L/C Disbursement), and the Administrative

48

 

Agent will promptly pay to such Issuing Bank amounts so received by it from each Revolving
Credit Lender. The fundings by the Revolving Credit Lenders pursuant to this paragraph
shall be made on the dates, and prior to the times, that would be required for the funding
of a Revolving Credit Borrowing were the Administrative Agent’s notice deemed to be a
Borrowing notice pursuant to Section 2.03. The Administrative Agent will promptly pay to
such Issuing Bank any amounts received by it from the applicable Borrowers pursuant to
Section 2.23(e) prior to the time that any Revolving Credit Lender makes any payment
pursuant to this paragraph (f); any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent
thereafter will be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Credit
Lenders that shall have made such payments and to such Issuing Bank, as their interests may
appear. If any Revolving Credit Lender shall not have made its Pro Rata Percentage of such
L/C Disbursement available to the Administrative Agent as provided above, such Lender and
the applicable Borrower severally agree to pay interest on such amount, for each day from
and including the date such amount is required to be paid in accordance with this paragraph
to but excluding the date such amount is paid, to the Administrative
Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank at (i) in the case of such Borrower, a rate
per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to Revolving Loans pursuant to Section
2.06(a) or (b), and (ii) in the case of such Lender, for the first such day, the Federal
Funds Effective Rate, and for each day thereafter, the Alternate Base Rate.

     SECTION 2.03. Borrowing Procedure. In order to request a Borrowing (other than a Swingline
Loan or a deemed Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.02(f) as to which this Section 2.03 shall not
apply), a Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (a) in the
case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, three Business
Days before a proposed Borrowing and (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 12:00
(noon), New York City time, one Business Day before a proposed Borrowing. Each such telephonic
Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable, and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or fax to
the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request and shall specify the following
information: (a) whether the Borrowing then being requested is to be a Borrowing of Term Loans,
Incremental Term Loans, Revolving Loans or Incremental Revolving Loans and whether such Borrowing
is to be a Eurocurrency Borrowing or an ABR Borrowing (provided that, until the Administrative
Agent shall have notified the Borrowers that the primary syndication of the Commitments has been
completed (which notice shall be given as promptly as practicable and, in any event, within 30 days
after the Closing Date), the Borrowers shall not be permitted to request a Eurocurrency Borrowing
with an Interest Period in excess of one month), (b) the date of such Borrowing (which shall be a
Business Day), (c) the number and location of the account to which funds are to be disbursed, (d)
the amount of such Borrowing and (e) if such Borrowing is to be a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the
Interest Period with respect thereto; provided, however, that, notwithstanding any contrary
specification in any Borrowing Request, (i) each requested Borrowing shall comply with the
requirements set forth in Section 2.02 and (ii) no Borrowing may be requested to be made on the
same day that a prepayment under Section 2.12 of Loans of the same Class and Type the requested
Borrowing is scheduled

49

 

to be made. If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified in any
such notice, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period with
respect to any Eurocurrency Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the applicable Borrower
shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. The Administrative
Agent shall promptly advise the applicable Lenders of any notice given pursuant to this Section
2.03 (and the contents thereof), and of each Lender’s portion of the requested Borrowing.

     SECTION 2.04. Evidence of Debt; Repayment of Loans. (a) Each applicable Borrower hereby
unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each applicable
Lender (i) the principal amount of each Term Loan of such Lender as provided in Section 2.11 and
(ii) the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan of such Lender on the Revolving Credit
Maturity Date. Each applicable Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Swingline
Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the Revolving Credit Maturity
Date.

     (b) Each Lender shall maintain, in accordance with its usual practice, an account or
accounts evidencing the indebtedness of each Borrower to such Lender resulting from each
Loan made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest
payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.

     (c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the
amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class and Type thereof and, if applicable, the
Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and
payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii)
the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from any Borrower or
any Guarantor and each Lender’s share thereof.

     (d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (b) and (c)
above shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations therein
recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to
maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligations
of any Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with their terms.

     (e) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it hereunder be evidenced by a
promissory note. In such event, each applicable Borrower shall execute and deliver to such
Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender and its registered assigns and in a form
and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and such Borrower.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event any Lender shall
request and receive such a promissory note, the interests represented by such note shall at
all times (including after any assignment of all or part of such interests pursuant to
Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes payable to the payee named
therein or its registered assigns.

50

 

     SECTION 2.05. Fees. (a) Each Borrower, jointly and severally, agrees to pay to each Lender
(other than a Defaulting Lender), through the Administrative Agent, on the last Business Day of
March, June, September and December in each year and on each date on which any Revolving Credit
Commitment of such Lender shall expire or be terminated as provided herein, a commitment fee (a
“Commitment Fee”) equal to 1.125% per annum on the daily unused amount of the Revolving Credit
Commitment of such Lender during the preceding quarter (or other period commencing with the Closing
Date or ending with the Revolving Credit Maturity Date or the date on which the Commitments of such
Lender shall expire or be terminated). All Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of the
actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days. For purposes of calculating the Commitment
Fees only, no portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be deemed utilized as a result of
outstanding Swingline Loans.

     (b) Each Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account and
the accounts of its Affiliates referred to therein, the fees set forth in the Fee Letters
at the times and in the amounts specified therein (the “Administrative Agent Fees”).

     (c) Each Borrower agrees to pay (i) to each Revolving Credit Lender (other than a
Defaulting Lender), through the Administrative Agent, on the last Business Day of March,
June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Revolving Credit
Commitment of such Lender shall be terminated as provided herein, a fee (an “L/C
Participation Fee”) calculated on such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the daily aggregate
L/C Exposure (excluding the portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed L/C Disbursements)
during the preceding quarter (or shorter period commencing with the Closing Date or ending
with the Revolving Credit Maturity Date or the date on which all Letters of Credit have
been canceled or have expired and the Revolving Credit Commitments of all Lenders shall
have been terminated) at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin from time to time
used to determine the interest rate on Revolving Credit Borrowings comprised of
Eurocurrency Loans pursuant to Section 2.06 and (ii) to each Issuing Bank in respect of
each Letter of Credit, for its own account, the fronting, issuing and drawing fees
specified from time to time by such Issuing Bank (the “Issuing Bank Fees”). All L/C
Participation Fees and Issuing Bank Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual
number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days.

     (d) All Fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the
Administrative Agent for distribution, if and as appropriate, among the Lenders, except
that the Issuing Bank Fees shall be paid directly to the applicable Issuing Bank. Once
paid, none of the Fees shall be refundable under any circumstances.

     SECTION 2.06. Interest on Loans. (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.07, the Loans
comprising each ABR Borrowing, including each Swingline Loan, shall bear interest (computed on the
basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, when
the Alternate Base Rate is

51

 

determined by reference to the Prime Rate and over a year of 360 days at
all other times and calculated from and including the date of such Borrowing to but excluding the
date of repayment thereof) at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable
Margin.

     (b) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.07, the Loans comprising each Eurocurrency
Borrowing shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed
over a year of 360 days) at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the
Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin.

     (c) Interest on each Loan shall be payable on the Interest Payment Dates applicable to
such Loan except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. The
applicable Alternate Base Rate or Adjusted LIBO Rate for each Interest Period or day
within an Interest Period, as the case may be, shall be determined by the Administrative
Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

     SECTION 2.07. Default Interest. If any Borrower shall default in the payment of any principal
of or interest on any Loan or any other amount due hereunder or under any other Loan Document, by
acceleration or otherwise, until such defaulted amount shall have been paid in full, to the extent
permitted by law, all overdue amounts outstanding under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents
shall bear interest (after as well as before judgment), payable on demand, (a) in the case of
overdue principal, at the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan pursuant to Section 2.06 plus
2.00% per annum and (b) with respect to all other overdue amounts, at a rate per annum (computed on
the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be,
when determined by reference to the Prime Rate and over a year of 360 days at all other times)
equal to the rate that would be applicable to an ABR Term Loan plus 2.00% per annum.

     SECTION 2.08. Alternate Rate of Interest. In the event, and on each occasion, that on the day
two Business Days prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing the
Administrative Agent shall have determined that dollar deposits in the principal amounts of the
Loans comprising such Borrowing are not generally available in the London interbank market, or that
the rates at which such dollar deposits are being offered will not adequately and fairly reflect
the cost to any Lender of making or maintaining Eurocurrency Loans during such Interest Period, or
that reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate, the Administrative
Agent shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, give written or fax notice of such determination to
each applicable Borrower and the Lenders. In the event of any such determination, until the
Administrative Agent shall have advised the Borrowers and the Lenders that the circumstances giving
rise to such notice no longer exist, any request by a Borrower for a Eurocurrency Borrowing
pursuant to Section 2.03 or 2.10 shall be deemed to be a request for an ABR Borrowing. Each
determination by the Administrative Agent under this Section 2.08 shall be conclusive absent
manifest error.

52

 

     SECTION 2.09. Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) The Term Loan Commitments (other
than any Incremental Term Loan Commitments, which shall terminate as provided in the related
Incremental Assumption Agreement) shall automatically terminate upon the making of the Term Loans
on the Closing Date. The Revolving Credit Commitments (other than any Incremental Revolving Credit
Commitments, which shall terminate as provided in the related Incremental Assumption Agreement) and
the Swingline Commitment shall automatically terminate on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. The
L/C Commitments shall automatically terminate on the earlier to occur of (i) the termination of the
Revolving Credit Commitments and (ii) the date 30 days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, all the Commitments shall automatically terminate at 5:00 p.m., New
York
City time, on February 28, 2011, if the initial Credit Event shall not have occurred by such
time.

     (b) Upon at least three Business Days’ prior irrevocable written or fax notice to the
Administrative Agent, the applicable Borrowers may at any time in whole permanently
terminate, or from time to time in part permanently reduce, the Term Loan Commitments, the
Revolving Credit Commitments or the Swingline Commitment; provided, however, that (i) each
partial reduction of the Term Loan Commitments or the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be
in an integral multiple of $500,000 and in a minimum amount of $2,000,000, (ii) each
partial reduction of the Swingline Commitment shall be in an integral multiple of $100,000
and in a minimum amount of $500,000 and (iii) the Total Revolving Credit Commitment shall
not be reduced to an amount that is less than the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure
(without taking into account Letters of Credit that have been cash collateralized or
backstopped in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) at the time.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the applicable
Borrowers may rescind any notice of termination under this Section 2.09 if such termination
would have resulted from a refinancing of all of the relevant Loans, which refinancing
shall not be consummated or shall otherwise be delayed.

     (c) Each reduction in the Term Loan Commitments or the Revolving Credit Commitments
hereunder shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective
applicable Commitments. Each Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the
account of the applicable Lenders, on the date of each termination or reduction, of any
Revolving Credit Commitments, the Commitment Fees on the amount of the Revolving Credit
Commitments so terminated or reduced accrued to but excluding the date of such termination
or reduction.

     SECTION 2.10. Conversion and Continuation of Borrowings. The applicable Borrowers shall have
the right at any time upon prior irrevocable written notice to the Administrative Agent (a) not
later than 12:00 (noon), New York City Time, one Business Day prior to the day of conversion, to
convert any Eurocurrency Borrowing into an ABR Borrowing, (b) not later than 12:00 (noon), New York
City Time, three Business Days prior to the day of conversion or continuation, to convert any ABR
Borrowing into a

53

 

Eurocurrency Borrowing or to continue any Eurocurrency Borrowing as a Eurocurrency
Borrowing for an additional Interest Period and (c) not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City
time, three Business Days prior to the day of conversion, convert the Interest Period with respect
to any Eurocurrency Borrowing to another permissible Interest Period, subject in each case to the
following:

     (i) until the Administrative Agent shall have notified the Borrowers that the primary
syndication of the Commitments has been completed (which notice shall be given as promptly
as practicable and, in any event, within 30 days after
the Closing Date), no ABR Borrowing may be converted into a Eurocurrency Borrowing
with an Interest Period in excess of one month;

     (ii) each conversion or continuation shall be made pro rata among the Lenders in
accordance with the respective principal amounts of the Loans comprising the converted or
continued Borrowing;

     (iii) if less than all the outstanding principal amount of any Borrowing shall be
converted or continued, then each resulting Borrowing shall satisfy the limitations
specified in Sections 2.02(a) and 2.02(b) regarding the principal amount and maximum number
of Borrowings of the relevant Type;

     (iv) each conversion shall be effected by each Lender and the Administrative Agent by
recording for the account of such Lender the new Loan of such Lender resulting from such
conversion and reducing the Loan (or portion thereof) of such Lender being converted by an
equivalent principal amount; and accrued interest on any Eurocurrency Loan (or portion
thereof) being converted shall be paid by the applicable Borrower at the time of
conversion;

     (v) if any Eurocurrency Borrowing is converted at a time other than the end of the
Interest Period applicable thereto, the applicable Borrower shall pay, upon demand, any
amounts due to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.16;

     (vi) any portion of a Borrowing maturing or required to be repaid in less than one
month may not be converted into or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing;

     (vii) any portion of a Eurocurrency Borrowing that cannot be converted into or
continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing by reason of the immediately preceding clause shall
be automatically converted at the end of the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing
into an ABR Borrowing;

     (viii) no Interest Period may be selected for any Eurocurrency Term Borrowing that
would end later than a Repayment Date occurring on or after the first day of such Interest
Period if, after giving effect to such selection, the aggregate outstanding amount of (x)
the Eurocurrency Term Borrowings comprised of Term Loans, Specified Incremental Term Loans
or Other Term Loans, as applicable, with Interest Periods ending on or prior to such Term
Loan Repayment Date and (y) the ABR Term Borrowings comprised of Term Loans,

54

 

Specified
Incremental Term Loans or Other Term Loans, as applicable, would not be at least equal to
the principal amount of Term Borrowings to be paid on such Repayment Date; and

     (ix) upon notice to the Borrowers from the Administrative Agent given at the request
of the Required Lenders, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, (x) no outstanding Loan may be converted
into, or continued as, a Eurocurrency Loan and (y) each outstanding Eurocurrency
Borrowing shall be automatically converted at the end of the Interest Period in effect for
such Borrowing into an ABR Borrowing.

     Each notice pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be irrevocable and shall refer to this
Agreement and specify (i) the identity and amount of the Borrowing that the applicable Borrower
requests be converted or continued, (ii) whether such Borrowing is to be converted to or continued
as a Eurocurrency Borrowing or an ABR Borrowing, (iii) if such notice requests a conversion, the
date of such conversion (which shall be a Business Day) and (iv) if such Borrowing is to be
converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Interest Period with respect thereto.
If no Interest Period is specified in any such notice with respect to any conversion to or
continuation as a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have selected
an Interest Period of one month’s duration. The Administrative Agent shall promptly advise the
applicable Lenders of any notice given pursuant to this Section 2.10 and of each such Lender’s
portion of any converted or continued Borrowing. If the applicable Borrower shall not have given
notice in accordance with this Section 2.10 to continue any Borrowing into a subsequent Interest
Period (and shall not otherwise have given notice in accordance with this Section 2.10 to convert
such Borrowing), such Borrowing shall, at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto (unless
repaid pursuant to the terms hereof), automatically be continued as an ABR Borrowing.

     SECTION 2.11. Repayment of Term Borrowings. (a) (i) The applicable Borrowers shall pay to
the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, on the dates set forth below, or if any
such date is not a Business Day, on the next preceding Business Day (each such date being called a
“Term Loan Repayment Date”), a principal amount of the Term Loans (as adjusted from time to time
pursuant to Sections 2.12, 2.13(e) and 2.24(d)) equal to the percentage set forth below for such
date of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans outstanding on the Closing Date, together
in each case with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be paid to but excluding
the date of such payment:

     (ii) The applicable Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of
the Incremental Term Lenders, on each Incremental Term Loan Repayment Date, a principal
amount of the Specified Incremental Term Loans (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to
Sections 2.12 and 2.13(e)) equal to the amount set forth for such date in the applicable
Incremental Assumption Agreement, together in each case with accrued and unpaid interest on
the principal amount to be paid to but excluding the date of such payment.

     (iii) The applicable Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account
of the applicable Accepting Lenders, on each Other Term Loan Repayment Date, a principal
amount of the Other Term Loans (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Section 2.12 and
2.13(e)) equal to the amount set forth for such date in the applicable Loan Modification
Agreement, together in each case with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount
to be paid to but excluding the date of such payment.

     (b) To the extent not previously paid, all Term Loans, Specified Incremental Term
Loans and Other Term Loans shall be due and payable on the Term Loan Maturity Date, the
applicable Incremental Term Loan Maturity Date or the applicable Other Term Loan Maturity
Date, as the case may be, together

56

 

with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount
to be paid to but excluding the date of payment.

     (c) All repayments pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be subject to Section 2.16, but
shall otherwise be without premium or penalty.

     SECTION 2.12. Voluntary Prepayment. (a) The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and
from time to time to prepay any Borrowing, in whole or in part, upon at least three Business Days’
prior written or fax notice (or telephone notice promptly confirmed by written or fax notice) to
the Administrative Agent, not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, in the case of
Eurocurrency Loans, or written or fax notice (or telephone notice promptly confirmed by written or
fax notice) at least one Business Day prior to the date of prepayment, in the case of ABR Loans, to
the Administrative Agent before 12:00 (noon), New York City time; provided, however, that (i) each
partial prepayment shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $500,000 and not less than
$2,000,000 and (ii) at the applicable Borrower’s election in connection with any prepayment of
Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 2.12(a), such prepayment may not, so long as no Event of
Default then exists, be applied to any Revolving Loan of a Defaulting Lender.

     (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.12 or any
other provision of this Agreement and without otherwise limiting the rights in respect of
prepayments of the Loans, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, Holdings, any Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries (each, a “Repurchaser”) may
repurchase outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.12 on the following basis:

     (i) The Repurchaser may conduct one or more auctions (each, an “Auction”) to
repurchase all or any portion of the Term Loans by providing written notice to the
Administrative Agent (for distribution to the Term Lenders) of the Term Loans that will be
the subject of the Auction (an “Auction Notice”). Each Auction Notice shall be in a form
reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and shall contain (x) the total cash
value of the bid, in a minimum amount of $10,000,000 with minimum increments of $1,000,000
(the “Auction Amount”) and (y) the discount to par, which shall be a range (the “Discount
Range”) of percentages of the par principal amount of the Term Loans at issue that
represents the range of purchase prices that could be paid in the Auction;

     (ii) In connection with any Auction, each Term Lender may, in its sole discretion,
participate in such Auction and may provide the Administrative Agent with a notice of
participation (the “Return Bid”) which shall be in a form reasonably acceptable to the
Administrative Agent and shall specify (x) a discount to par that must be expressed as a
price (the “Reply Discount”), which must be within the Discount Range, and (y) a principal
amount of Term Loans which must be in increments of $1,000,000 or in an amount equal to the
Term Lender’s entire remaining amount of such Term Loans (the “Reply Amount”). Term
Lenders

57

 

may only submit one Return Bid per Auction. In addition to the Return Bid, the
participating Term Lender must execute and deliver, to be held in escrow by the
Administrative Agent, an Assignment and Acceptance in a form reasonably acceptable to the
Administrative Agent;

     (iii) Based on the Reply Discounts and Reply Amounts received by the Administrative
Agent, the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Repurchaser, will determine the
applicable discount (the “Applicable Discount”) for the Auction, which will be the lowest
Reply Discount for which the Repurchaser can complete the Auction at the Auction Amount;
provided that, in the event that the Reply Amounts are insufficient to allow the
Repurchaser to complete a purchase of the entire Auction Amount (any such Auction, a
“Failed Auction”), the Repurchaser shall either, at its election, (x) withdraw the Auction
or (y) complete the Auction at an Applicable Discount equal to the highest Reply Discount.
The Repurchaser shall purchase Term Loans (or the respective portions thereof) from each
Term Lender with a Reply Discount that is equal to or greater than the Applicable Discount
(“Qualifying Bids”) at the Applicable Discount; provided, further, that if the aggregate
proceeds required to purchase all Term Loans subject to Qualifying Bids would exceed the
Auction Amount for such Auction, the Repurchaser shall purchase such Term Loans at the
Applicable Discount ratably based on the principal amounts of such Qualifying Bids (subject
to rounding requirements specified by the Administrative Agent). Each participating Term
Lender will receive notice of a Qualifying Bid as soon as reasonably practicable but in no
case later than five Business Days from the date the Return Bid was due;

     (iv) Once initiated by an Auction Notice, the Repurchaser may not withdraw an Auction
other than a Failed Auction. Furthermore, in connection with any Auction, upon submission
by a Term Lender of a Qualifying Bid, such Term Lender (each, a “Qualifying Lender”) will
be obligated to sell the entirety or its allocable portion of the Reply Amount, as the case
may be, at the Applicable Discount;

     (v) With respect to all repurchases made by the Repurchaser pursuant to this Section
2.12(b), such repurchases shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments pursuant to this
Section 2.12 in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such Term Loans;
provided that such repurchases shall not be subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(a),
Section 2.17 and Section 2.18; and

     (vi) The repurchases by the Repurchaser of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.12(b)
shall be subject to the following conditions: (u) the Auction is open to all Term Lenders
on a pro rata basis, (v) no Default or Event of Default has occurred or is continuing or
would result therefrom, (w) the Repurchaser shall at the time of such repurchase affirm
that it is not in possession of any material non-public information that (A) has not been
disclosed to the Lenders (other than Lenders that do not wish to receive material
non-public information with respect to Holdings or any of the Subsidiaries) or has not
otherwise been disseminated in

58

 

a manner making it available to investors generally and (B)
could reasonably be expected to have a material effect upon, or otherwise be material to,
Holdings or any of the Subsidiaries or their respective securities, (x) any Term Loans
repurchased pursuant to this Section 2.12(b) shall be automatically and permanently
canceled upon acquisition thereof by the Repurchaser, (y) the Repurchaser shall not use the
proceeds of Revolving Loans (including Incremental Revolving Loans) to acquire such Term
Loans and (z) at the time of (and calculated on a pro forma basis after giving effect to)
any such repurchase, the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure (excluding any outstanding L/C
Exposure) shall not exceed unrestricted cash and cash equivalents on hand of Holdings and
the Subsidiaries.

     (c) Voluntary prepayments of Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.12(a) shall be allocated
among the Classes of Term Loans as specified by the applicable Borrower or Borrowers and
shall be applied against the remaining scheduled installments of principal due in respect
of the Term Loans of any Class under Section 2.11 as specified by the applicable Borrower
or Borrowers; provided, however, that, following any Loan Modification Offer creating a
Class of Other Term Loans, any voluntary prepayment of Term Loans involving such Class of
Other Term Loans or the original Class of Term Loans from which such Class of Other Term
Loans derived shall be allocated at least ratably to the original Class of Term Loans from
which such Class of Other Term Loans derived (and may, at the Borrower’s discretion, be
allocated more than ratably to such original Class of Term Loans, unless otherwise provided
in the related Loan Modification Agreement).

     (d) Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date and the principal
amount of each Borrowing (or portion thereof) to be prepaid, shall be irrevocable (provided
that such notice may be conditioned on receiving the proceeds of any refinancing) and shall
commit the applicable Borrower to prepay such Borrowing by the amount stated therein on the
date stated therein; provided, however, that if such prepayment is for all of the then
outstanding Loans of a Class, then the applicable Borrower may revoke such notice and/or
extend the prepayment date by not more than five Business Days; provided further, however,
that the provisions of Section 2.16 shall apply with respect to any such revocation or
extension. All prepayments under Section 2.12(a) shall be subject to Section 2.16, but
shall otherwise be without premium or penalty. All prepayments under Section 2.12(a)
(other than prepayments of ABR Revolving Loans that are not made in connection with the
termination or permanent reduction of the applicable Revolving Credit Commitments) shall be
accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be prepaid to but
excluding the date of payment.

     SECTION 2.13. Mandatory Prepayments. (a) In the event of any termination of all the
Revolving Credit Commitments, the applicable Borrowers shall, on the date of such termination,
repay or prepay all their outstanding Revolving Credit Borrowings and all outstanding Swingline
Loans and replace or cause to be canceled (or cash collateralize

59

 

or backstop pursuant to
arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and each
applicable Issuing Bank) all outstanding Letters of Credit issued by each such Issuing Bank.
If, after giving effect to any partial reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments or at any
other time, the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure would exceed the Total Revolving Credit
Commitment, then the Borrowers shall, on the date of such reduction or at such other time, repay or
prepay Revolving Credit Borrowings or Swingline Loans (or a combination thereof) and, after the
Revolving Credit Borrowings shall have been repaid or prepaid in full, replace or cause to be
canceled (or cash collateralize or backstop pursuant to arrangements satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank) Letters of Credit issued by each such Issuing Bank in
an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.

     (b) Not later than the third Business Day following the receipt of Net Cash Proceeds
in respect of any Asset Sale, the Borrowers shall apply 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds
received with respect thereto to prepay outstanding Term Loans in accordance with Section
2.13(e); provided that (i) no such prepayment will be required until the Net Cash Proceeds
in respect of Asset Sales received from and after the time of the immediately preceding
prepayment under this clause (b) (or if no such prepayments have yet occurred, from the
Closing Date) exceeds $10,000,000 and (ii) with respect to the Net Cash Proceeds of any
Asset Sale, the Borrowers may use a portion of such Net Proceeds to prepay or repurchase
Additional Senior Secured Indebtedness to the extent any document governing such Additional
Senior Secured Indebtedness requires the Borrowers to prepay or make an offer to purchase
such Additional Senior Secured Indebtedness with the proceeds of such Asset Sale, in each
case in an amount not to exceed the product of (1) the amount of such Net Proceeds and (2)
a fraction, the numerator of which is the outstanding principal amount of the Additional
Senior Secured Indebtedness with a Lien on the Collateral ranking pari passu with the Liens
securing the Obligations and with respect to which such a requirement to prepay or make an
offer to purchase exists and the denominator of which is the sum of the outstanding
principal amount of such Additional Senior Secured Indebtedness and the outstanding
principal amount of Term Loans.

     (c) No later than the earlier of (i) (x) 120 days after the end of the fiscal year of
Holdings ending on December 31, 2011 or (y) 90 days after the end of each fiscal year of
Holdings thereafter, and (ii) the date that is 10 days following the date on which the
financial statements with respect to such period are delivered pursuant to Section 5.04(a),
the Borrowers shall prepay outstanding Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.13(e) in an
aggregate principal amount equal to (A) (x) if the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio at the end
of such period shall have been greater than 2.0 to 1.0, 50% of Excess Cash Flow for the
fiscal year then ended and (y) if the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio at the end of such
period shall have been less than or equal to 2.0 to 1.0, 25% of Excess Cash Flow for the
fiscal year then ended, in each case minus (B) Voluntary Prepayments and prepayments of
Revolving Loans under Section 2.12 during such fiscal year but only to the extent that the
Indebtedness so prepaid by its terms cannot be

60

 

reborrowed or redrawn and such prepayments do not occur in connection with a
refinancing of all or any portion of such Indebtedness.

     (d) In the event that any Loan Party or any subsidiary of a Loan Party shall receive
Net Cash Proceeds from the issuance or incurrence of Indebtedness for money borrowed of any
Loan Party or any subsidiary of a Loan Party (other than any cash proceeds from
Indebtedness permitted by Section 6.01), the Borrowers shall, substantially simultaneously
with (and in any event not later than the third Business Day next following) the receipt of
such Net Cash Proceeds by such Loan Party or such subsidiary, apply an amount equal to 100%
of such Net Cash Proceeds to prepay outstanding Term Loans in accordance with Section
2.13(e).

     (e) Mandatory prepayments of outstanding Term Loans under this Agreement shall be
allocated pro rata among the Term Loans, the Specified Incremental Term Loans and the Other
Term Loans and applied in direct order of maturity against the remaining scheduled
installments of principal due during the next 12 months and then pro rata against the
remaining scheduled installments of principal due, in each case in respect of the Term
Loans, the Specified Incremental Term Loans and the Other Term Loans under clauses (i),
(ii) and (iii), respectively, of Section 2.11(a).

     (f) Each applicable Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, at the time of
each prepayment required under this Section 2.13, (i) a certificate signed by a Financial
Officer of such Borrower setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount
of such prepayment and (ii) at least four Business Days prior irrevocable written notice of
such prepayment. Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date, the Class
and Type of each Loan being prepaid and the principal amount of each Loan (or portion
thereof) to be prepaid. All prepayments of Borrowings under this Section 2.13 shall be
subject to Sections 2.13(e) and 2.16, but shall otherwise be without premium or penalty,
and shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be
prepaid to but excluding the date of payment.

     SECTION 2.14. Reserve Requirements; Change in Circumstances.
(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Change in Law shall impose,
modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of,
deposits with or for the account of or credit extended by any Lender or any Issuing Bank (except
any such reserve or mandatory cost requirement which is reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or
shall impose on such Lender or such Issuing Bank or the applicable interbank market any other
condition (including, in each case, the imposition of Taxes other than Taxes (i) imposed on any
payment made pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) measured by net income or profits, franchise, branch
profits or similar Taxes or (iii) arising under FATCA, including any regulations or official
interpretations thereof) affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans made by such Lender or any
Letter of Credit or participation therein, and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to
increase the cost to such Lender or such Issuing Bank of making or maintaining any

61

 

Eurocurrency Loan or increase the cost to any Lender or any Issuing Bank of issuing or maintaining
any Letter of Credit or purchasing or maintaining a participation therein or to reduce the amount
of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of
principal, interest or otherwise) by an amount deemed by such Lender or such Issuing Bank to be
material, then the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, upon
demand such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as
the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

     (b) If any Lender or any Issuing Bank shall have reasonably determined that any Change
in Law regarding capital adequacy has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of
return on such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s
or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the
Loans made or participations in Letters of Credit purchased by such Lender pursuant hereto
or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank pursuant hereto to a level below that
which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding
company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such
Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing
Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender
or such Issuing Bank to be material, then from time to time the Borrowers shall pay to such
Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding
company for any such reduction suffered.

     (c) If any Lender or Issuing Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts
pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) above, it shall provide prompt notice thereof to the
applicable Borrower, through the Administrative Agent, certifying (i) that one of the
events described in paragraph (a) or (b) has occurred and describing in reasonable detail
the nature of such event, (ii) as to the increased cost or reduced amount resulting from
such event and (iii) as to the additional amount demanded by such Lender or Issuing Lender
and a reasonably detailed explanation of the calculation thereof. Such a certificate shall
be conclusive absent manifest error. The applicable Borrower or Borrowers shall pay such
Lender or such Issuing Bank the amount shown as due on any such certificate delivered by it
within 30 days after its receipt of the same.

     (d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any Issuing Bank to demand
compensation for any increased costs or reduction in amounts received or receivable or
reduction in return on capital shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such
Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that no Borrower shall be under
any obligation to compensate any Lender or any Issuing Bank under paragraph (a) or (b)
above with respect to increased costs or
reductions with respect to any period prior to the date that is 120 days prior to such
request if such Lender or such Issuing Bank knew or could reasonably have been expected to
know of the circumstances giving rise to such increased costs or

62

 

reductions and of the fact
that such circumstances would result in a claim for increased compensation by reason of
such increased costs or reductions; provided further that the foregoing limitation shall
not apply to any increased costs or reductions arising out of the retroactive application
of any Change in Law within such 120-day period. The protection of this Section shall be
available to each Lender and each Issuing Bank regardless of any possible contention of the
invalidity or inapplicability of the Change in Law that shall have occurred or been
imposed.

     SECTION 2.15. Change in Legality. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement,
if any Change in Law shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain any Eurocurrency
Loan or to give effect to its obligations as contemplated hereby with respect to any Eurocurrency
Loan, then, by written notice to the applicable Borrowers and to the Administrative Agent:

     (i) such Lender may declare that Eurocurrency Loans will not thereafter (for the
duration of such unlawfulness) be made by such Lender hereunder (or be continued for
additional Interest Periods) and ABR Loans will not thereafter (for such duration) be
converted into Eurocurrency Loans, whereupon any request for a Eurocurrency Borrowing (or
to convert an ABR Borrowing to a Eurocurrency Borrowing or to continue a Eurocurrency
Borrowing for an additional Interest Period) shall, as to such Lender only, be deemed a
request for an ABR Loan (or a request to continue an ABR Loan as such for an additional
Interest Period or to convert a Eurocurrency Loan into an ABR Loan, as the case may be),
unless such declaration shall be subsequently withdrawn; and

     (ii) such Lender may require that all outstanding Eurocurrency Loans made by it be
converted to ABR Loans, in which event all such Eurocurrency Loans shall be automatically
converted to ABR Loans as of the effective date of such notice as provided in paragraph (b)
below.

In the event any Lender shall exercise its rights under (i) or (ii) above, all payments and
prepayments of principal that would otherwise have been applied to repay the Eurocurrency Loans
that would have been made by such Lender or the converted Eurocurrency Loans of such Lender shall
instead be applied to repay the ABR Loans made by such Lender in lieu of, or resulting from the
conversion of, such Eurocurrency Loans.

     (b) For purposes of this Section 2.15, a notice to the applicable Borrowers by any
Lender shall be effective as to each Eurocurrency Loan made by such Lender, if lawful, on
the last day of the Interest Period then applicable to such Eurocurrency Loan; in all other
cases such notice shall be effective on the date of receipt by such Borrowers.

     SECTION 2.16. Breakage. The applicable Borrowers shall indemnify each Lender against any loss
or expense that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) any event, other than a
default by such Lender in the performance of

63

 

its obligations hereunder, which results in (i) such
Lender receiving or being deemed to receive any amount on account of the principal of any
Eurocurrency Loan prior to the end of the Interest Period in effect therefor, (ii) the conversion
of any Eurocurrency Loan to an ABR Loan, or the conversion of the Interest Period with respect to
any Eurocurrency Loan, in each case other than on the last day of the Interest Period in effect
therefor, or (iii) any Eurocurrency Loan to be made by such Lender (including any Eurocurrency Loan
to be made pursuant to a conversion or continuation under Section 2.10) not being made after notice
of such Loan shall have been given by the applicable Borrower hereunder (any of the events referred
to in this clause (a) being called a “Breakage Event”) or (b) any default in the making of any
payment or prepayment of Eurocurrency Loans after a Borrower has given notice thereof in accordance
with the provisions of this Agreement. In the case of any Breakage Event, such loss shall include
an amount equal to the excess, as reasonably determined by such Lender, of (i) its cost of
obtaining funds for the Eurocurrency Loan that is the subject of such Breakage Event for the period
from the date of such Breakage Event to the last day of the Interest Period in effect (or that
would have been in effect) for such Loan over (ii) the amount of interest likely to be realized by
such Lender (as reasonably determined by such Lender) in redeploying the funds released or not
utilized by reason of such Breakage Event for such period. A reasonably detailed certificate of
any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts which such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to
this Section 2.16 shall be delivered to the applicable Borrowers and shall be conclusive absent
manifest error.

     SECTION 2.17. Pro Rata Treatment. Except as otherwise set forth herein, each Borrowing, each
payment or prepayment of principal of any Borrowing, each payment of interest on the Loans, each
payment of the Commitment Fees, each reduction of the Term Loan Commitments or the Revolving Credit
Commitments and each conversion of any Borrowing to or continuation of any Borrowing as a Borrowing
of any Type shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with their respective
applicable Commitments (or, if such applicable Commitments shall have expired or been terminated,
in accordance with the respective principal amounts of their outstanding applicable Loans). For
purposes of determining the available Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders at any time, each
outstanding Swingline Loan shall be deemed to have utilized the Revolving Credit Commitments of the
Lenders (including those Lenders which shall not have made Swingline Loans) pro rata in accordance
with such respective Revolving Credit Commitments. Each Lender agrees that in computing such
Lender’s portion of any Borrowing to be made hereunder, the Administrative Agent may, in its
discretion, round each Lender’s percentage of such Borrowing to the next higher or lower whole
dollar amount.

     SECTION 2.18. Sharing of Setoffs. Each Lender agrees that if it shall, through the exercise
of a right of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim against any Borrower or any other Loan Party,
or pursuant to a secured claim under Section 506 of
Title 11 of the United States Code or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of,
such secured claim, received by such Lender under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other
similar law or otherwise, or by any other means, obtain payment (voluntary or involuntary) in
respect of any Loan or Loans or L/C Disbursement as a result of which the unpaid principal portion
of its Loans and participations in L/C

64

 

Disbursements shall be proportionately less than the unpaid
principal portion of the Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements of any other Lender, it
shall be deemed simultaneously to have purchased from such other Lender at face value, and shall
promptly pay to such other Lender the purchase price for, a participation in the Loans and L/C
Exposure of such other Lender, so that the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans and L/C
Exposure and participations in Loans and L/C Exposure held by each Lender shall be in the same
proportion to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Loans and L/C Exposure then outstanding
as the principal amount of its Loans and L/C Exposure prior to such exercise of banker’s lien,
setoff or counterclaim or other event was to the principal amount of all Loans and L/C Exposure
outstanding prior to such exercise of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim or other event;
provided, however, that (i) if any such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be made pursuant
to this Section 2.18 and the payment giving rise thereto shall thereafter be recovered, such
purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be rescinded to the extent of such recovery and the
purchase price or prices or adjustment restored without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this
Section 2.18 shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by any Loan Party pursuant to and
in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including prepayments received pursuant to
Section 2.12(b)) or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale
of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant. The Borrowers and Holdings
expressly consent to the foregoing arrangements and agree that any Lender holding a participation
in a Loan or L/C Disbursement deemed to have been so purchased may exercise any and all rights of
banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim with respect to any and all moneys owing by any Borrower and
Holdings to such Lender by reason thereof as fully as if such Lender had made a Loan directly to
such Borrower in the amount of such participation.

     SECTION 2.19. Payments. (a) The Borrowers shall make each payment (including principal of or
interest on any Borrowing or any L/C Disbursement or any Fees or other amounts) hereunder and under
any other Loan Document not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, on the date when due in
immediately available funds, without setoff, defense or counterclaim. Each such payment (other
than (i) Issuing Bank Fees, which shall be paid directly to the applicable Issuing Bank, and (ii)
principal of and interest on Swingline Loans, which shall be paid directly to the Swingline Lender
except as otherwise provided in Section 2.22(e)) shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its
offices at: in the case of the Administrative Agent, Eleven Madison Avenue, New York, NY 10010.
All payments received by the Administrative Agent after such time shall be deemed received on the
next Business Day (in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion) and any applicable interest shall
continue to accrue. The Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each Lender any payments
received by the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Lender.

     (b) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, whenever any payment (including
principal of or interest on any Borrowing or any Fees or other amounts) hereunder or under
any other Loan Document shall become due, or otherwise would occur, on a day that is not a
Business Day, such payment may 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, if
applicable.

65

 

     (c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Borrower prior
to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the
Lenders or any Issuing Bank hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment, the
Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in
accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or
the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower does
not in fact make such payment, then each of the Lenders or such Issuing Bank, as the case
may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the
amount so distributed to such Lender, and to pay interest thereon, for each day from and
including the date such amount is distributed to it but excluding the date of payment to
the Administrative Agent, at a rate determined by the Administrative Agent to represent its
cost of overnight or short-term funds (which determination shall be conclusive absent
manifest error).

     SECTION 2.20. Taxes. (a) Except as required by law (as modified by the practice then in
effect of any Governmental Authority), any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of a
Borrower or any other Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and
clear of and without withholding or deduction for any Taxes; provided that if any Borrower or any
other Loan Party shall be required by law to withhold or deduct any Taxes from such payments, then
(i) such Borrower or such Loan Party shall make such withholdings or deductions, (ii) such Borrower
or such Loan Party shall pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental
Authority in accordance with applicable law and (iii) if such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes, the
amount payable by the applicable Borrower or any Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so
that, net of all required withholdings and deductions for Indemnified Taxes (including withholdings
and deductions applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section 2.20), the applicable
Recipient receives the amount it would have received had no such withholdings or deductions, as the
case may be, been made.

     (b) In addition, the applicable Borrower or any Loan Party shall pay any Other Taxes
to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

     (c) The Borrowers and any Loan Party shall, jointly and severally, indemnify each
Recipient, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any
Indemnified Taxes paid by the applicable Recipient on or with respect to any payment by or
on account of any obligation of any Borrower or any
other Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified
Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any
penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto
whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the
relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate setting forth the amount of such payment or
liability delivered to the Borrowers by a Recipient on behalf of itself or another
Recipient shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

66

 

     (d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes by any Borrower or
any other Loan Party to a Governmental Authority, such Borrower or other Loan Party shall
deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by
such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such
payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent.

     (e) Each Recipient shall deliver to any Borrower or any other Loan Party (with a copy
to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or
reasonably requested by such Borrower, other Loan Party or the Administrative Agent, such
properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law, if any, as will
(i) permit payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document to be made without, or at a
reduced rate of, withholding Tax or (ii) enable such Borrower, Loan Party or the
Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Recipient is subject to backup
withholding or information reporting requirements, but only, in each case, if such
Recipient is legally entitled to do so.

     (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.20, in the case of any
withholding Tax (other than U.S. Federal withholding Tax), the completion, execution and
submission of such documentation shall not be required if, in the Recipient’s judgment,
such completion, execution or submission would subject such Recipient to any material,
unreimbursed out-of-pocket cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or
commercial position of such Recipient.

     (g) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing hereunder or the provisions of
any other Loan Document, each Recipient shall deliver to the Borrowers and Administrative
Agent two copies (or such other number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on
or prior to the date on which such Person becomes a Recipient, as the case may be, under
this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter when a previously provided form becomes
obsolete or invalid, but only if such Person is legally entitled to do so), of whichever of
the following is applicable:

     (i) in the case of a Recipient claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which
the United States of America is a party, (A) with respect to
payments of interest under this Agreement or any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN
establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to
the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (B) with respect to all other payments under
this Agreement or any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from U.S.
Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of
such tax treaty;

     (ii) in the case of a Recipient for whom payments under this Agreement or any Loan
Document constitute income that is effectively connected with such Recipient’s conduct of a
trade or business in the United States, duly completed

67

 

 copies of IRS Form W-8ECI and, in
the case of the Administrative Agent, also deliver two duly completed copies of IRS Form
W-8IMY certifying that it is a “U.S. branch” and that the payments it receives for the
account of others are not effectively connected with the conduct of its trade or business
in the United States and that it is using such form as evidence of its agreement with the
Borrowers to be treated as a U.S. person with respect to such payments (and the Borrowers
and Administrative Agent agree to so treat the Administrative Agent as a U.S. person with
respect to such payments), with the effect that the Borrowers can make payments to the
Administrative Agent without deduction or withholding of any Taxes imposed by the United
States,

     (iii) in the case of a Recipient claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio
interest under section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such
Recipient is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a
“10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the
Code, (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code
or (D) conducting a trade or business in the United States with which the relevant interest
payments are effectively connected and (y) duly completed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN,

     (iv) in the case of a Recipient that is a U.S. person within the meaning of section
7701(a)(30) of the Code, duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9;

     (v) to the extent a Recipient is not a U.S. person within the meaning of section
7701(a)(30) of the Code and is not the beneficial owner of payments made under this
Agreement or any Loan Document (for example, where such Recipient is a non-U.S.
partnership), (A) an IRS Form W-8IMY on behalf of itself and (B) the relevant forms
prescribed in clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) and (vi) of this Section 2.20(g) that would be
required of each such beneficial owner if such beneficial owner were a Recipient; or

     (vi) any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption
from, or a reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such
supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by
applicable law to permit the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine the
amount of withholding or deduction, if any, required to be made.

     (h) If any Recipient determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund
of any Indemnified Taxes (including, for purposes of this Section 2.20(h), Taxes
indemnified pursuant to Section 2.14) as to which it has been indemnified by any Borrower
or any other Loan Party or with respect to which any Borrower or any other Loan Party has
paid additional amounts pursuant to Section 2.14 or this Section 2.20, as applicable, it
shall pay to such Borrower or such other Loan Party, as applicable, an amount equal to such
refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or such additional amounts paid,
by any Borrower or any Loan Party under Sections 2.14 or 2.20, as

68

 

applicable, with respect
to the Indemnified Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of
such Recipient and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant
Governmental Authority with respect to the amount of such refund as corresponds to the
Indemnified Taxes giving rise to such refund), provided that such Borrower or such other
Loan Party, upon the request of such Recipient, agrees to repay the amount paid over to
such Borrower or such other Loan Party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges
imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such Recipient in the event such
Recipient is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph
shall not be construed to require any Recipient to make available its Tax returns (or any
other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any
other Person.

     (i) Each applicable Lender and Issuing Bank (including any successors or assigns
thereof) shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent for the full amount of any
Excluded Taxes payable by the Administrative Agent with respect to this Agreement, any Loan
Document or any payment by any Borrower or Loan Party under this Agreement and any Loan
Document and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or
not such Excluded Taxes were correctly imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority,
except to the extent that any such amount or payment is determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence
or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent. The indemnity under this paragraph (i)
shall be paid within 30 days after the Administrative Agent delivers to the applicable
Lender or Issuing Bank a certificate stating the amount of such Excluded Taxes so payable
by the Administrative Agent. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so payable
absent manifest error.

     (j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any Loan Document,
if any Lender assigns, participates or transfers any of its rights or obligations under
this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.04 or any Lender changes its lending branch, neither
the Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall make any greater payments pursuant to this
Section 2.20, as a consequence of such
assignment, participation, transfer or change, than would have been payable in the
absence of such assignment, participation, transfer or change; provided that this Section
2.20(j) shall not apply to changes made pursuant to Section 2.21(a).

     (k) If a payment made to a Recipient would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax
imposed by FATCA if such Recipient were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting
requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code,
as applicable), such Recipient shall deliver to the Withholding Agent, at the time or times
prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent,
such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section
1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the
Withholding Agent as may be necessary for the Withholding Agent to comply with its
obligations under FATCA, to determine that such

69

 

Recipient
has complied with such Recipient’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from
such payment. For purposes of this Section 2.20(k), FATCA shall include any regulations or
official interpretations thereof.

     SECTION 2.21. Assignment or Termination of Commitments Under Certain Circumstances; Duty to
Mitigate. (a) In the event (i) any Lender or any Issuing Bank delivers a certificate requesting
compensation pursuant to Section 2.14, (ii) any Lender or any Issuing Bank delivers a notice
described in Section 2.15, (iii) any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any
Lender or any Issuing Bank or any Governmental Authority on account of any Lender or any Issuing
Bank pursuant to Section 2.20, (iv) any Lender refuses to consent to (x) any Loan Modification
Offer or (y) any other amendment, waiver or other modification of any Loan Document requested by
the Borrowers that, in the case of clause (y), requires the consent of a greater percentage of
Lenders than the Required Lenders (or, in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification
described in clause (B) of the second proviso to Section 9.08(b), greater than a majority in
interest of the affected Class of Lenders) and such Loan Modification Offer or other amendment,
waiver or modification is consented to by the Required Lenders (or, in the case of a Loan
Modification Offer or any amendment, waiver or modification described in clause (B) of the second
proviso to Section 9.08(b), a majority in interest of the affected Class) or (v) any Lender becomes
a Defaulting Lender then, in each case, the Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort
(including with respect to the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 9.04(b)), upon
notice to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and the Administrative Agent (x)
require such Lender or such Issuing Bank to transfer and assign, without recourse (in accordance
with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all of its interests, rights and
obligations under this Agreement (or, in the case of clause (iv) or (v) above, all of its
interests, rights and obligations with respect to the Class of Loans or Commitments that is the
subject of the related consent, amendment, waiver or other modification or in respect of which such
Lender is a Defaulting Lender) to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such assigned obligations
and, with respect to clause (iv)
above, shall consent to such requested amendment, waiver or other modification of any Loan
Documents (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment) or (y)
terminate the Commitment of such Lender (or, in the case of clause (iv) or (v) above, such Lender’s
Commitment with respect to the Class of Commitments that is the subject of the related consent,
amendment, waiver or other modification or in respect of which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender)
or the L/C Commitment of such Issuing Bank, as the case may be (provided that, with respect to
clause (iv) above, any such termination shall be sufficient (together with all other consenting
Lenders) to cause the adoption of the applicable departure, waiver, amendment or other modification
of the Loan Documents); provided that (A) such assignment or termination shall not conflict with
any law, rule or regulation or order of any court or other Governmental Authority having
jurisdiction, (B) in the case of an assignment pursuant to clause (x) above, the Borrowers shall
have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if any Revolving Credit
Commitment is being assigned, of each applicable Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender), which
consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, (C) the Borrowers (or, in the case

70

 

of an
assignment pursuant to clause (x) above, such assignee) shall have paid to the affected Lender or
the affected Issuing Bank in immediately available funds an amount equal to the sum of the
principal of and interest accrued to the date of such payment on the outstanding Loans of the
applicable Class or the outstanding L/C Disbursements of such Lender or such Issuing Banks,
respectively, plus (except, in the case of a Defaulting Lender, any Fees not required to be paid to
such Defaulting Lender pursuant to the express provisions of this Agreement) all Fees and other
amounts accrued for the account of such Lender or such Issuing Bank hereunder with respect thereto
(including any amounts under Sections 2.14 and 2.16) and (D) in the case of a termination of the
L/C Commitments of an Issuing Bank pursuant to clause (y) above, the Borrowers shall have canceled,
or provided a backstop on terms satisfactory to such Issuing Bank in respect of, any Letters of
Credit issued by such Issuing Bank; provided further that, if prior to any such transfer and
assignment or termination, as the case may be, the circumstances or event that resulted in such
Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s claim for compensation under Section 2.14, notice under Section
2.15 or the amounts paid pursuant to Section 2.20, as the case may be, cease to cause such Lender
or such Issuing Bank to suffer increased costs or reductions in amounts received or receivable or
reduction in return on capital, or cease to have the consequences specified in Section 2.15, or
cease to result in amounts being payable under Section 2.20, as the case may be (including as a
result of any action taken by such Lender or such Issuing Bank pursuant to paragraph (b) below), or
if such Lender or such Issuing Bank shall waive its right to claim further compensation under
Section 2.14 in respect of such circumstances or event or shall withdraw its notice under Section
2.15 or shall waive its right to further payments under Section 2.20 in respect of such
circumstances or event or shall consent to the proposed amendment, waiver, consent or other
modification or shall cease to be a Defaulting Lender, as the case may be, then (i) such Lender or
such Issuing Bank shall not thereafter be required to make any such transfer and assignment
hereunder and (ii) the Borrowers shall not thereafter be permitted to terminate the relevant
Commitment or Commitments of such Lender or the L/C Commitment of such Issuing Bank pursuant to
clause (y) above. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby grants to
the Administrative Agent an irrevocable power of attorney (which power is coupled with an
interest) to execute and deliver, on behalf of such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may
be, as assignor, any Assignment and Acceptance necessary to effectuate any assignment of such
Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s interests hereunder in the circumstances contemplated by this
Section 2.21(a).

     (b) If (i) any Lender or any Issuing Bank shall request compensation under Section
2.14, (ii) any Lender or any Issuing Bank delivers a notice described in Section 2.15 or
(iii) any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Issuing
Bank or any Governmental Authority on account of any Lender or any Issuing Bank, pursuant
to Section 2.20, then such Lender or such Issuing Bank shall use reasonable efforts (which
shall not require such Lender or such Issuing Bank to incur an unreimbursed loss or
unreimbursed cost or expense or otherwise take any action inconsistent with its internal
policies or legal or regulatory restrictions or suffer any disadvantage or burden deemed by
it to be significant) (x) to file any certificate or document reasonably requested in
writing by the Borrowers or (y) to assign its rights and delegate and transfer its
obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if such filing

71

 

or assignment would reduce its claims for compensation under Section 2.14 or enable it to
withdraw its notice pursuant to Section 2.15 or would reduce amounts payable pursuant to
Section 2.20, as the case may be, in the future. Each Borrower hereby agrees to pay all
reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender or any Issuing Bank in connection with
any such filing or assignment, delegation and transfer.

     SECTION 2.22. Swingline Loans. (a)Swingline Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions
and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, the Swingline Lender agrees
to make loans to the Borrowers at any time and from time to time on and after the Closing Date and
until the earlier of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and the termination of the Revolving Credit
Commitments, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i)
the aggregate principal amount of all Swingline Loans exceeding $15,000,000 in the aggregate or
(ii) the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure, after giving effect to any Swingline Loan, exceeding
the Total Revolving Credit Commitment. Each Swingline Loan shall be in a principal amount that is
at least $100,000. The Swingline Commitment may be terminated or reduced from time to time as
provided herein. Within the foregoing limits, the Borrowers may borrow, pay or prepay and reborrow
Swingline Loans hereunder, subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein.

     (b) Swingline Loans. The Borrowers shall notify the Swingline Lender by fax, or by
telephone (promptly confirmed by fax), not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, on
the day of a proposed Swingline Loan. Such notice shall be delivered on a Business Day,
shall be irrevocable and shall refer to this Agreement and shall specify the requested date
(which shall be a Business Day) and amount of such Swingline Loan and the wire transfer
instructions for the
account of the Borrower to which the proceeds of the Swingline Loan should be
disbursed. The Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan by wire transfer to the
account specified in such request.

     (c) Prepayment. The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time
to prepay any Swingline Loan, in whole or in part, upon giving written or fax notice (or
telephone notice promptly confirmed by written, or fax notice) to the Swingline Lender
before 12:00 (noon), New York City time, on the date of prepayment at the Swingline
Lender’s address for notices specified in Section 9.01.

     (d) Interest. Each Swingline Loan shall be an ABR Loan and, subject to the provisions
of Section 2.07, shall bear interest as provided in Section 2.06(a).

     (e) Participations. The Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the
Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, on any Business Day
require the Revolving Credit Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all
or a portion of the Swingline Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate
amount of Swingline Loans in which Revolving Credit Lenders will participate. The
Administrative Agent will, promptly upon

72

 

receipt of such notice, give notice to each
Revolving Credit Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of
such Swingline Loan or Loans. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Credit
Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided
above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such
Revolving Credit Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each
Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire
participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional
and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and
continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, and that each such payment shall be made
without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Revolving Credit
Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of
immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.02(c) with respect
to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.02(c) shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the
payment obligations of the Lenders) and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the
Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. The Administrative Agent
shall notify the applicable Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired
pursuant to this paragraph and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall
be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received
by the Swingline Lender from the Borrowers (or other person on behalf of the Borrowers) in
respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale
of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such
amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by
the Administrative Agent to the Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant
to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear. The purchase
of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the
Borrowers (or other person liable for obligations of the Borrowers) of any default in the
payment thereof.

     SECTION 2.23. Letters of Credit. (a) General. Any Borrower may request the issuance of a
Letter of Credit for its own account or for the account of Holdings or any Wholly Owned Subsidiary
of Holdings, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing
Bank, at any time and from time to time while the L/C Commitments remain in effect as set forth in
Section 2.09(a). This Section shall not be construed to impose any obligation upon any Issuing
Bank to issue any Letter of Credit that is inconsistent with the terms and conditions of this
Agreement.

     (b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. In order
to request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or to amend, renew or extend an existing
Letter of Credit), the applicable Borrower shall hand deliver or fax to the applicable
Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of
issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of
Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, the date of
issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, the date on which such Letter of Credit is to

73

 

expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) below), the amount of such Letter of Credit,
the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be
necessary to prepare such Letter of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended,
renewed or extended only if, and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each
Letter of Credit the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that,
after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the L/C Exposure
shall not exceed $50,000,000 and (ii) the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure shall not
exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment.

     (c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at the close of business on
the earlier of the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit
and the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, except
to the extent cash collateralized or backstopped pursuant to arrangements reasonably
satisfactory to the relevant Issuing Bank at the time of issuance or renewal thereof,
unless such Letter of Credit expires by its terms on an earlier date; provided, however,
that each Existing Letter of Credit may expire on the termination date of such Existing
Letter of Credit; provided, further, that a Letter of Credit may, upon the request of the
applicable Borrower, include a provision whereby such Letter of Credit shall be renewed
automatically for additional consecutive periods of 12 months or less (but not beyond the
date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, except to the
extent cash collateralized or backstopped pursuant to arrangements reasonably
satisfactory to the relevant Issuing Bank at the time of issuance or renewal thereof)
unless the applicable Issuing Bank notifies the beneficiary thereof at least 30 days (or
such longer period as may be specified in such Letter of Credit) prior to the
then-applicable expiration date that such Letter of Credit will not be renewed.

     (d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit and without any further
action on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or the Revolving Credit Lenders, such
Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Revolving Credit Lender, and each such Revolving Credit
Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit
equal to its applicable Pro Rata Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn
under such Letter of Credit, effective upon the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in
the case of the Existing Letters of Credit, upon the Closing Date). In consideration and
in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Credit Lender hereby absolutely and
unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the
applicable Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of each L/C Disbursement made by
such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the applicable Borrower (or, if applicable, another
party pursuant to its obligations under any other Loan Document) forthwith on the date due
as provided in Section 2.02(f). Each Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees that
its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters
of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance
whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of

74

 

Default,
and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or
reduction whatsoever. For the avoidance of doubt, each Revolving Credit Lender’s
obligation to participate in Letters of Credit pursuant to this Section 2.23(d) shall
terminate on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date.

     (e) Reimbursement. If any Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of
a Letter of Credit, the applicable Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount
equal to such L/C Disbursement not later than the Business Day after such Borrower shall
have received notice from such Issuing Bank that payment of such draft will be made.

     (f) Obligations Absolute. Each Borrower’s obligation to reimburse L/C Disbursements
as provided in paragraph (e) above shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and
shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under any and
all circumstances whatsoever, and irrespective of:

     (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or any Loan
Document, or any term or provision therein;

     (ii) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the
provisions of any Letter of Credit or any Loan Document;

     (iii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that such Borrower,
any other party guaranteeing, or otherwise obligated with, such Borrower, any Subsidiary or
other Affiliate thereof or any other Person may at any time have against the beneficiary
under any Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank, Administrative Agent or any Lender
or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or
any other related or unrelated agreement or transaction;

     (iv) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be
forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being
untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

     (v) payment by the applicable Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against
presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such
Letter of Credit; and

     (vi) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind of the applicable Issuing
Bank, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or any other Person or any other event or
circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but
for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of such
Borrower’s obligations hereunder.

     Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is expressly understood and agreed that
the absolute and unconditional obligation of the Borrowers hereunder to reimburse L/C Disbursements
will not be excused by the gross negligence or willful

75

 

misconduct of the applicable Issuing Bank.
However, the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse such Issuing Bank from liability to any
Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in
respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable law)
suffered by such Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful
misconduct in determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit
comply with the terms thereof. It is further understood and agreed that the applicable Issuing
Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for
further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary and, in making any
payment under any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank (i) such Issuing Bank’s exclusive
reliance on the documents presented to it under such Letter of Credit as to any and all matters set
forth therein, including reliance on the amount of any draft presented under such Letter of Credit,
whether or not the amount due to the beneficiary thereunder equals the amount of such draft and
whether or not any document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be insufficient
in any respect, if such document on its face appears to be in order, and whether or not any other
statement or any other document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be forged or
invalid or any statement therein proves to be inaccurate or untrue in any respect whatsoever and
(ii) any noncompliance in any immaterial respect of the documents presented under such Letter of
Credit with the terms thereof shall, in each
case, be deemed not to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Bank.

     (g) Disbursement Procedures. The applicable Issuing Bank shall, promptly following
its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment
under a Letter of Credit. Such Issuing Bank shall as promptly as possible give telephonic
notification, confirmed by fax, to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower of
such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make an L/C
Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice
shall not relieve such Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the
Revolving Credit Lenders with respect to any such L/C Disbursement.

     (h) Interim Interest. If any Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect
of a Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, then, unless the applicable Borrower
shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement in full on such date, the unpaid amount thereof shall
bear interest for the account of such Issuing Bank, for each day from and including the
date of such L/C Disbursement, to but excluding the earlier of the date of payment by such
Borrower or the date on which interest shall commence to accrue thereon as provided in
Section 2.02(f), at the rate per annum that would apply to such amount if such amount were
an ABR Revolving Loan.

     (i) Resignation or Removal of an Issuing Bank. Any Issuing Bank may resign at any
time by giving 30 days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and
the Borrowers, and may be removed at any time by the Borrowers by notice to such Issuing
Bank, the Administrative

76

 

Agent and the Lenders. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as
an Issuing Bank hereunder by a Lender that shall agree to serve as a successor Issuing
Bank, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the interests, rights and
obligations of such retiring Issuing Bank. At the time such removal or resignation shall
become effective, the Borrowers shall pay all accrued and unpaid fees pursuant to Section
2.05(c)(ii). The acceptance of any appointment as an Issuing Bank hereunder by a successor
Lender shall be evidenced by an agreement entered into by such successor, in a form
satisfactory to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, and, from and after the
effective date of such agreement, (i) such successor Lender shall have all the rights and
obligations of such previous Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents
and (ii) references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term “Issuing Bank” shall
be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor
and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the resignation or
removal of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the retiring Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto
and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this
Agreement and the other Loan
Documents with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation or
removal, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

     (j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing,
the Borrowers shall on the Business Day they receive notice from the Administrative Agent
or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Revolving
Credit Lenders holding participations in outstanding Letters of Credit representing greater
than 50% of the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit) thereof and
of the amount to be deposited, deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, for the
benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders, an amount in cash equal to the L/C Exposure as of
such date; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash will become effective
immediately, and such deposit will become immediately payable in immediately available
funds, without demand or notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default
described in Article VII(g) or Article VII(h). Such deposit shall be held by the
Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the Obligations. The
Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive
right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment
of such deposits in Permitted Investments, which investments shall be made at the option
and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, such deposits shall not bear interest.
Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys
in such account shall (i) automatically be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse
the applicable Issuing Bank for L/C Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed,
(ii) be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrowers for the
L/C Exposure at such time and (iii) if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but
subject to the consent of Revolving Credit Lenders holding participations in outstanding
Letters of Credit representing greater than 50% of the aggregate undrawn amount of all
outstanding Letters of Credit), be applied to satisfy the

77

 

Obligations. If any Borrower is
required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of
an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned
to such Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or
waived.

     (k) Additional Issuing Banks. The Borrowers may, at any time and from time to time
with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed) and such Lender, designate one or more additional Lenders to act as an
issuing bank under the terms of this Agreement, subject to reporting requirements
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent with respect to issuances, amendments,
extensions and terminations of Letters of Credit by such additional issuing bank. Any
Lender designated as an issuing bank pursuant to this paragraph (k) shall be deemed to be
an “Issuing Bank” (in addition to being a Lender) in respect of Letters of Credit
issued or to be issued by such Lender, and, with respect to such Letters of Credit,
such term shall thereafter apply to the other Issuing Bank and such Lender.

     SECTION 2.24. Incremental Term Loan Commitments and Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments.
(a) Any Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, on one or more occasions
during the term of this Agreement request Incremental Term Loan Commitments or Incremental
Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, in an aggregate amount not to exceed the Incremental
Facility Amount in effect at such time from one or more Incremental Term Lenders and/or Incremental
Revolving Credit Lenders, all of which must be Eligible Assignees. Such notice shall set forth (i)
the identity of the Borrower or Borrowers to which the Incremental Term Loan Commitments and/or
Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments shall be extended, (ii) the amount of the Incremental Term
Loan Commitments and/or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments being requested (which shall be in
a minimum increment equal to $1,000,000 and a minimum amount of $5,000,000 or equal to the
remaining Incremental Facility Amount), (iii) the date on which such Incremental Term Loan
Commitments and/or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments are requested to become effective
(which shall not be less than 10 Business Days nor more than 60 days after the date of such notice
unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent), (iv) in the case of Incremental Term Loan
Commitments, whether such Incremental Term Loan Commitments are commitments to make additional Term
Loans of any Class or commitments to make term loans with terms different from the Term Loans
(“Specified Incremental Term Loans” and, such commitments, “Specified Incremental Term
Commitments”) and (v) in the case of Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments, whether such
Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments are commitments to make additional Revolving Loans of any
Class or commitments to make revolving loans on terms different from the then existing Revolving
Loans (“Specified Incremental Revolving Loans” and, such commitments, “Specified Incremental
Revolving Credit Commitments”).

     (b) The applicable Borrower or Borrowers may seek Incremental Term Loan Commitments
and/or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments from existing Lenders (each of which shall
be entitled to agree or decline to participate

78

 

in its sole discretion) and additional
banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders who will become Incremental
Term Lenders and/or Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders, as applicable, in connection
therewith. The applicable Borrower or Borrowers and each Incremental Term Lender and/or
Incremental Revolving Credit Lender, as applicable, shall execute and deliver to the
Administrative Agent an Incremental Assumption Agreement and such other documentation as
the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Incremental Term Loan
Commitment and/or the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment of such Person. The terms
and provisions of (i) the Incremental Term Loans shall be identical to those of the Term
Loans of the applicable Class and (ii) the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments shall
be identical to those of the Revolving Credit Commitments of the applicable Class, in each
case except
as otherwise set forth herein or in the Incremental Assumption Agreement; provided
that without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders, (i) (A) the final maturity
date of any Specified Incremental Term Loans shall be no earlier than the Latest Term Loan
Maturity Date in effect at the time the Incremental Term Loan Commitments with respect to
such Specified Incremental Term Loans become effective and (B) the final maturity date of
any Specified Incremental Revolving Loans shall be no earlier than the Revolving Credit
Maturity Date with respect to any Class of Revolving Loans, (ii) the average life to
maturity of the Specified Incremental Term Loans shall be no shorter than the remaining
average life to maturity of any other Class of Term Loans and (iii) if the initial yield on
such Specified Incremental Term Loans or Specified Incremental Revolving Loans, as
applicable (as determined by the Administrative Agent to be equal to the sum of (x) the
margin above the Adjusted LIBO Rate on such Specified Incremental Term Loans or Specified
Incremental Revolving Loans, as applicable (which shall be increased by the amount that any
“LIBOR floor” applicable to such Specified Incremental Term Loans or Specified Incremental
Revolving Loans, as applicable, on the date such Specified Incremental Term Loans or
Specified Incremental Revolving Loans, as applicable, are made would exceed the Adjusted
LIBO Rate (without giving effect to the last sentence of the definition of such term)) that
would be in effect for a three-month Interest Period commencing on such date) and (y) if
such Specified Incremental Term Loans or Specified Incremental Revolving Loans, as
applicable, are initially made at a discount or the Lenders making the same receive a fee
directly or indirectly from Holdings or any Subsidiary for doing so (the amount of such
discount or fee, expressed as a percentage of the Specified Incremental Term Loans or
Specified Incremental Revolving Loans, as applicable, being referred to herein as “OID”),
the amount of such OID divided by the lesser of (x) the average life to maturity of such
Specified Incremental Term Loans or Specified Revolving Term Loans, as applicable and (y)
four) exceeds by more than 50 basis points the sum of (A) the margin then in effect for
Eurocurrency Term Loans or Eurocurrency Revolving Loans of any Class, as applicable (which
shall be the sum of the Applicable Margin then in effect for such Eurocurrency Term Loans
or Eurocurrency Revolving Loans of such Class, as applicable, increased by the amount that
any “LIBOR floor” applicable to such

79

 

Eurocurrency Term Loans or Eurocurrency Revolving
Loans of such Class, as applicable, on such date would exceed the Adjusted LIBO Rate
(without giving effect to the last sentence of the definition of such term) that would be
in effect for a three-month Interest Period commencing on such date) plus (B) the amount of
OID initially paid in respect of such Term Loans or Revolving Loans of such Class, as
applicable, divided by the lesser of (x) the average life to maturity of the Term Loans or
Revolving Loans of such Class, as applicable, as in effect at the time such Term Loans or
Revolving Loans, as applicable, were made as determined by the Administrative Agent in its
sole discretion and (y) four (the amount of such excess above 50 basis points being
referred to herein as the “Yield Differential”), then the Applicable Margin then in effect
for each such affected
Class of Term Loans or Revolving Loans, as applicable, shall automatically be
increased by the Yield Differential, effective upon the making of the Specified Incremental
Term Loans or Specified Incremental Revolving Loans, as applicable. The Administrative
Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Incremental
Assumption Agreement. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the
effectiveness of any Incremental Assumption Agreement, this Agreement shall be deemed
amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms
of the Incremental Term Loan Commitment and/or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment and
the Incremental Term Loans and/or Incremental Revolving Loans evidenced thereby, and the
Administrative Agent and the Borrowers may revise this Agreement to evidence such
amendments.

     (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent of the Required Lenders, no
Incremental Term Loan Commitment or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment shall become
effective under this Section 2.24 unless (i) on the date of such effectiveness, the
conditions set forth in paragraphs (b) and (c) of Section 4.01 shall be satisfied and the
Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated such date and
executed by a Financial Officer of the applicable Borrower or Borrowers, (ii) except as
otherwise specified in the applicable Incremental Assumption Agreement, the Administrative
Agent shall have received (with sufficient copies for each of the Incremental Term Lenders
and/or Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders) legal opinions, board resolutions and other
closing certificates reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent and consistent with
those delivered on the Closing Date under Section 4.02, (iii) the Administrative Agent
shall have received from the applicable Borrower or Borrowers all fees and other amounts
due and payable in respect of the Incremental Term Loan Commitments and/or Incremental
Revolving Credit Commitments, including, to the extent invoiced, reimbursement or payment
of all out-of-pocket expenses required to be reimbursed or paid by such Borrower or
Borrowers hereunder or under any other Loan Document and (iv) at the time of, and after
giving effect to, such Incremental Term Loan Commitment and/or Incremental Revolving Credit
Commitment and the Loans to be made thereunder (assuming, in the case of any Incremental
Revolving Commitment, that the full amount thereof was drawn at such time) and the
application of the proceeds therefrom as if made and applied on such date, (x) Holdings
would be in Pro

80

 

Forma Compliance and (y) the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio would not exceed
3.50 to 1.00.

     (d) Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent may, in
consultation with the applicable Borrower or Borrowers, take any and all action as may be
reasonably necessary to ensure that (i) all Incremental Term Loans (other than Specified
Incremental Term Loans), when originally made, are included in each Borrowing of
outstanding Term Loans of the applicable Class on a pro rata basis and (ii) all Revolving
Loans in respect of
Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments (other than Specified Incremental Revolving
Loans), when originally made, are included in each Borrowing of outstanding Revolving Loans
of the applicable Class on a pro rata basis. With respect to Incremental Term Loans, this
may be accomplished by converting each outstanding Eurocurrency Term Borrowing into an ABR
Term Borrowing on the date of each Incremental Term Loan, or by allocating a portion of
each Incremental Term Loan to each outstanding Eurocurrency Term Borrowing of the
applicable Class on a pro rata basis. With respect to Incremental Revolving Credit
Commitments, this may be accomplished by (i) requiring the outstanding Revolving Loans to
be prepaid with the proceeds of a new Revolving Credit Borrowing of such Class, (ii)
causing Lenders of the affected Class to assign portions of their outstanding Revolving
Loans to Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders or (iii) any combination of the foregoing.
Any conversion of Eurocurrency Loans to ABR Loans contemplated in the preceding two
sentences shall be subject to Section 2.16. If any Incremental Term Loan or Incremental
Revolving Loan is to be allocated to an existing Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Term
Borrowing or Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing of a Class, then the interest rate thereon
for such Interest Period and the other economic consequences thereof shall be as set forth
in the applicable Incremental Assumption Agreement. In addition, to the extent any
Incremental Term Loans are not Specified Incremental Term Loans, the scheduled amortization
payments under Section 2.11(a)(i) required to be made after the making of such Incremental
Term Loans shall be ratably increased by the aggregate principal amount of such Incremental
Term Loans and shall be further increased for all Lenders of the applicable Class on a pro
rata basis to the extent necessary to avoid any reduction in the amortization payments to
which such Lenders were entitled before such recalculation.

     SECTION 2.25. Defaulting Lenders. (a) If a Lender becomes, and during the period it remains,
a Defaulting Lender, the following provisions shall apply with respect to any outstanding L/C
Exposure and any outstanding Swingline Loans:

     (i) the Pro Rata Percentage of such Defaulting Lender with respect to any L/C Exposure
and any outstanding Swingline Loans will, subject to the limitation in the last sentence of
clause (b) below, automatically be reallocated (effective on the date such Lender becomes a
Defaulting Lender) among the Revolving Credit Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders pro
rata in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitments; provided, that (x)
with

81

 

respect to each non-Defaulting Lender, the sum of its Pro Rata Percentage of the
Revolving Credit Exposures, plus its Pro Rata Percentage of the aggregate principal amounts
of all Swingline Loans may not in any event exceed its Revolving Credit Commitment as in
effect at the time of such reallocation and (y) neither such reallocation nor any payment
by a non-Defaulting Lender pursuant thereto will constitute a waiver or release of any
claim any Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender or any
other
Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender or cause such Defaulting Lender to be a
non-Defaulting Lender; and

     (ii) to the extent that any portion (the “unreallocated portion”) of the Pro Rata
Percentage of such Defaulting Lender with respect to any L/C Exposure and any outstanding
Swingline Loans cannot be so reallocated, the applicable Borrower or Borrowers will
promptly, and in no event later than three Business Days after any demand by the
Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Issuing Banks and/or the Swingline Lender, as
the case may be), (x) (A) cash collateralize the obligations of such Borrower to the
Issuing Banks in respect of such L/C Exposure, in an amount at least equal to the aggregate
amount of the unreallocated portion of such L/C Exposure and (B) in the case of such
outstanding Swingline Loans, prepay in full the unreallocated portion thereof, or (y) make
other arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and to the Issuing
Banks and the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, in their sole discretion to protect
them against the risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Issuing Banks shall have no obligation to issue new Letters of Credit, or to
extend, renew or amend existing Letters of Credit, and the Swingline Lender shall have no
obligation to make new Swingline Loans, until such unreallocated portions of L/C Exposure
or Swingline Loans (as the case may be) are cash collateralized or prepaid (as the case may
be) in accordance with clause (x) above or such other arrangements are made in accordance
with clause (y) above.

     (b) If the applicable Borrower or Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing
Banks and the Swingline Lender agree in writing in their discretion that a Lender that is a
Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative
Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the date specified in such notice
and subject to any conditions set forth therein, (i) such Lender will, to the extent
applicable, purchase such portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders and/or make
such other adjustments as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause
such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage to be on a pro rata basis in accordance with its
respective Commitments, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender and will
be a non-Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with
respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the applicable Borrower or
Borrowers while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender and (ii) the cash collateral
requirements set forth in this Section 2.25 will terminate and each applicable Issuing Bank
and the Swingline Lender will cause any cash collateral posted with respect to their
respective L/C Exposure or the

82

 

Swingline Loans, as the case may be, to be returned to the
applicable Borrower or Borrowers subject to any terms relating to such cash collateral;
provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected
parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to non-Defaulting Lender will
constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such
Lender having been a Defaulting Lender.

     (c) The Administrative Agent will promptly send to each Lender, the Swingline Lender
and each Issuing Bank a copy of any notice to the applicable Borrower or Borrowers provided
for in this Section 2.25.

or any Material Subsidiary (other than any Lien created hereunder or under the Security Documents).

83

 

     SECTION 3.03. Enforceability. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by each
Loan Party and constitutes, subject to Legal Reservations, and each
other Loan Document when executed and delivered by each Loan Party thereto will constitute,
subject to Legal Reservations, a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Loan Party enforceable

     SECTION 3.04. Governmental Approvals. No action, consent or approval of, registration or
filing with or any other action by any Governmental Authority is or will be required in connection

     SECTION 3.05. Financial Statements. (a) Holdings has heretofore furnished to the Lenders the
consolidated balance sheets and related statements of income, stockholder’s equity and cash flows
of the Acquired Company (i) as of and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2007, 2008 and 2009,
audited by and accompanied by the opinion of Grant Thornton LLP, independent public accountants and
(ii) as of and for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2010, June 30, 2010 and September 30, 2010,
certified by its Financial Officer. Such financial statements present fairly in all material
respects the financial condition and results of operations and cash flows of the Acquired Company
and its consolidated subsidiaries, as of such dates and for such periods. Such statements of

case of unaudited financial statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments and the absence of
footnotes.

     (b) Holdings has heretofore delivered to the Lenders its unaudited pro forma balance

prepared giving effect to the Transactions as if they had occurred, with respect to such
balance sheet, on such date and, with respect to such income statement, on the first day of
the 12-month period ending on such date. Such pro forma financial statements have been
prepared in good faith by Holdings, based on the assumptions used to prepare the pro forma
financial information contained in the Confidential Information Memorandum (which
assumptions are believed by Holdings on the date hereof and on the Closing Date to be
reasonable), accurately reflect all adjustments required to be made to give effect to the
Transactions and present fairly in all material respects on a pro forma basis, based on the
assumptions reflected therein, the estimated consolidated financial position of Holdings
and the Subsidiaries as of such date and for such period, assuming that the Transactions
had actually occurred at such date or at the beginning of such period, as the case may be
(and subject to normal year-end audit adjustments and the absence of footnotes).

84

 

     SECTION 3.06. No Material Adverse Change. No event, change or condition has occurred that has
had, or could reasonably be expected to have, a material adverse
effect on the business, assets, liabilities, operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or
operating results of Holdings and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, since December 31, 2009.

     SECTION 3.07. Title to Properties; Possession Under Leases. (a) Each Loan Party and its
subsidiaries has good and valid title to, or valid leasehold interests in, all its material
properties and assets (including all Mortgaged Property), except, in each case, where the failure
to have such good and valid title or such valid leasehold interests could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. All such material properties and assets are free and
clear of Liens, other than Liens expressly permitted by Section 6.02.

     (b) Each Loan Party and its subsidiaries has complied with all obligations under all
material leases to which it is a party and all such leases are in full force and effect
except, in each case, where the failure to so comply could not reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Loan Party and its subsidiaries enjoys peaceful and
undisturbed possession under all such material leases except, in each case, where the
failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

     (c) As of the Closing Date, no Loan Party or any of its subsidiaries has received any
written notice of, nor has any knowledge of, any pending or contemplated condemnation
proceeding affecting the Mortgaged Properties or any sale or disposition thereof in lieu of
condemnation.

under any right of first refusal, option or other contractual right to sell, assign or
otherwise dispose of any Mortgaged Property or any interest therein.

     SECTION 3.08. Subsidiaries. Schedule 3.08 sets forth as of the Closing Date a list of all
Subsidiaries and the percentage membership interest of Holdings or any Subsidiary therein and the
identity of such holder. The shares of capital stock or other ownership interests so indicated on
Schedule 3.08 are, as of the Closing Date, except as set forth on such Schedule, fully paid and
non-assessable and are owned by Holdings or a Subsidiary, directly or indirectly, free and clear of
all Liens other than Liens arising under applicable laws or permitted under Section 6.02 (other
than Liens created under the Security Documents).

     SECTION 3.09. Litigation; Compliance with Laws. (a) Except as set forth on Schedule 3.09,
there are no actions, suits or proceedings at law or in equity or by or before any Governmental
Authority now pending or, to the knowledge of any Loan Party, threatened against or affecting any
Loan Party or any of its subsidiaries or any business, property or rights of any such Person (i)
that involve any Loan Document or the Transactions or (ii) as to which there is a reasonable
possibility of an adverse

85

 

determination and that, if adversely determined, could reasonably be
expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

     (b) Since the Closing Date, there has been no change in the status of the matters
disclosed on Schedule 3.09 that, individually or in the aggregate, has resulted in, or
materially increased the likelihood of, a Material Adverse Effect.

     (c) No Loan Party or any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective material
properties or assets is in violation of, nor will the continued operation of their material
properties and assets as currently conducted violate, any law, rule or regulation
(including any zoning and building law, ordinance, code or approval, or permits, any
Environmental Law and any Environmental Permits) or any restrictions of record or
agreements affecting the Mortgaged Property, or is in default with respect to any judgment,
writ, injunction, decree or order of any Governmental Authority, where such violation or
default could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

     (d) Certificates of occupancy (or the functional equivalent thereof) and permits are
in effect for each Mortgaged Property as currently constructed or the improvements located
on each such Mortgaged Property or the use thereof constitutes legal non-conforming
structures or uses except, in each case, where the failure to do so could not reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

     SECTION 3.10. Agreements. (a) No Loan Party or any of its subsidiaries is a party to any
agreement or instrument or subject to any corporate restriction that has resulted or could
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

     (b) No Loan Party or any of its subsidiaries is in default in any manner under any
provision of any material indenture or other material agreement or instrument evidencing
Indebtedness owed to a third party, or any other material agreement or instrument to which
it is a party or by which it or any of its properties or assets are or may be bound, where
such default could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

     SECTION 3.11. Federal Reserve Regulations. (a) No Loan Party or any of its subsidiaries is
engaged principally, or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for
the purpose of buying or carrying Margin Stock.

     (b) No part of the proceeds of any Loan or any Letter of Credit will be used, whether
directly or indirectly, and whether immediately, incidentally or ultimately, for any
purpose that entails a violation of, or that is inconsistent with, the provisions of the
Regulations of the Board, including Regulation T, U or X.

     SECTION 3.12. Investment Company Act. No Loan Party is an “investment company” as defined in,
or subject to regulation under, the Investment Company Act of 1940.

86

 

     SECTION 3.13. Use of Proceeds. The Borrowers will use the proceeds of the Loans (other than
Incremental Term Loans, Incremental Revolving Loans or Other Revolving Loans, which will be used as
provided for in the applicable Incremental Assumption Agreement or the applicable Loan Modification
Agreement, as the case may be) and will request the issuance of Letters of Credit only for the
purposes specified in the introductory statement to this Agreement.

     SECTION 3.14. Taxes. (a) Each Loan Party and each of its subsidiaries has filed or caused to
be filed all material federal, state, local and foreign tax returns or materials required to have
been filed by it and has paid or caused to be paid all material Taxes due and payable by it and all
material assessments received by it, except Taxes that are being contested in good faith by
appropriate proceedings and for which such Loan Party or subsidiary, as applicable, shall have set
aside on its books adequate reserves.

     (b) As of the Closing Date, none of Holdings, the Subsidiaries and their respective
Affiliates, after giving effect to the Transactions, is a party to, bound by or has any
liability under any Tax sharing agreement or similar agreement with respect to Taxes.

     SECTION 3.15. No Material Misstatements. None of (a) the Confidential Information Memorandum
(together with the risk factors incorporated by reference therein) or (b) any other written
information, report, exhibit or schedule (excluding the projections, forecasts, other
forward-looking information and financial information referred to below) furnished by or on behalf
of Holdings or any Subsidiary to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the
negotiation of any Loan Document or included therein or delivered pursuant thereto, when taken as a
whole, contained, contains or will contain as of the date the same was or is furnished any material
misstatement of fact or omitted, omits or will omit to state any material fact necessary to make
the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were, are or will be
made, not materially misleading. The projections and pro forma financial information contained in
the materials referenced above are based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by
management of Holdings to be reasonable at the time made, in light of the circumstances under which
they were made, it being recognized by the Agents and the Lenders that such projections, forecasts,
other forward-looking information and financial information as it relates to future events is not
to be viewed as fact and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such financial
information may differ from the projected results set forth therein by a material amount.

     SECTION 3.16. Employee Benefit Plans. (a) Each Loan Party, each Material Subsidiary and each
ERISA Affiliate is in compliance in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA
and the Code and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder. No ERISA Event has
occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA
Events, could reasonably be expected to result in material liability of any Loan Party, any
Material Subsidiary or any ERISA Affiliates. The present value of all benefit liabilities under
each Plan (based on
the assumptions used for purposes of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Nos.

87

 

87 and
158, as amended or revised from time to time) did not, as of the last annual valuation date
applicable thereto, exceed the fair market value of the assets of such Plan, and the present value
of all benefit liabilities of all underfunded Plans (based on the assumptions used for purposes of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Nos. 87 and 158, as amended or revised from time to
time) did not, as of the last annual valuation dates applicable thereto, exceed the fair market
value of the assets of all such underfunded Plans except in each such case where such underfunding
could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

     (b) Each Foreign Pension Plan is in compliance in all material respects with all
requirements of law applicable thereto and the respective requirements of the governing
documents for such plan. With respect to each Foreign Pension Plan, no Loan Party, its
Affiliates or, to the knowledge of any Loan Party, any of their respective directors,
officers, employees or agents has engaged in a transaction which would subject any Loan
Party or any subsidiary thereof, directly or indirectly, to a tax or civil penalty which
could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material
Adverse Effect. With respect to each Foreign Pension Plan, reserves have been established
in the financial statements furnished to Lenders in respect of any unfunded liabilities in
accordance with applicable law and prudent business practice or, where required, in
accordance with ordinary accounting practices in the jurisdiction in which such Foreign
Pension Plan is maintained. The aggregate unfunded liabilities with respect to such
Foreign Pension Plans could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect; the present value of the aggregate accumulated benefit liabilities of all such
Foreign Pension Plans (based on those assumptions used to fund each such Foreign Pension
Plan) did not, as of the last annual valuation date applicable thereto, exceed the fair
market value of the assets of all such Foreign Pension Plans except in such case where the
underfunding could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

     SECTION 3.17. Environmental Matters. (a) Except as set forth in Schedule 3.17 and except
with respect to any other matters that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, no Loan Party or any subsidiary thereof (i) has
failed to comply with any Environmental Law or to obtain, maintain or comply with any Environmental
Permits, (ii) has become subject to any Environmental Liability, (iii) has received notice of any
claim with respect to any Environmental Liability or (iv) knows of any basis for any Environmental
Liability.

     (b) Since the Closing Date, there has been no change in the status of the matters
disclosed on Schedule 3.17 that, individually or in the aggregate, has resulted in, or
materially increased the likelihood of, a Material Adverse Effect.

     SECTION 3.18. Insurance. Schedule 3.18 sets forth a true, complete and correct description of
all insurance maintained by or on behalf of each Loan Party or any Material Subsidiary thereof as
of the Closing Date that is material to Holdings and the
Material Subsidiaries taken as a whole. As of the Closing Date, such insurance is in full

88

 

force and effect and all premiums have been duly paid. Each Loan Party and each Material
Subsidiary has insurance in such amounts and covering such risks and liabilities as are in
accordance with normal industry practice.

     SECTION 3.19. Security Documents. (a) Subject to the Legal Reservations, the U.S. Collateral
Agreement, upon execution and delivery thereof by the parties thereto, will create in favor of the
Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid and enforceable
security interest in the Collateral (as defined in the U.S. Collateral Agreement) and the proceeds
thereof and (i) when the Pledged Collateral (as defined in the U.S. Collateral Agreement) is
delivered to the Collateral Agent, the Lien created under the U.S. Collateral Agreement shall
constitute a fully perfected first priority Lien (subject to the rights of Persons pursuant to
Liens expressly permitted by Section 6.02) on, and security interest in, all right, title and
interest of the Loan Parties in such Pledged Collateral, in each case prior and superior in right
to any other Person, and (ii) when financing statements in appropriate form are filed in the
offices specified on Schedule 3.19(a), or other appropriate instruments are filed or other actions
taken, all as described in Schedule 3.19(a), the Lien created under the U.S. Collateral Agreement
will constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest
of the Loan Parties in such Collateral (other than Intellectual Property, as defined in the U.S.
Collateral Agreement), in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person, in each case
other than with respect to Liens expressly permitted by Section 6.02.

     (b) Upon the recordation of the U.S. Collateral Agreement (or a short-form security
agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Closing Date Borrower, the
Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent) with the United States Patent and Trademark
Office and the United States Copyright Office, together with the financing statements in
appropriate form filed in the offices specified on Schedule 3.19(a), the Lien created under
the U.S. Collateral Agreement shall constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security
interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in the Intellectual Property
(as defined in the U.S. Collateral Agreement) in which a security interest may be perfected
by filing in the United States and its territories and possessions, in each case prior and
superior in right to any other Person (it being understood that subsequent recordings in
the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office may be
necessary to perfect a Lien on registered trademarks and patents, trademark and patent
applications and registered copyrights acquired by the Loan Parties after the Closing
Date).

     (c) Subject to the Legal Reservations, each Mortgage, when executed, will be effective
to create in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties,
a valid and enforceable Lien on all of the applicable Loan Party’s right, title and
interest in and to the Mortgaged Property thereunder and the proceeds thereof, and when
such Mortgage is filed and/or recorded in the relevant recorder’s office, such Mortgage
shall constitute a fully perfected first
priority Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the
applicable Loan Party in such Mortgaged Property and the proceeds thereof, other

89

 

than with
respect to the rights of Persons pursuant to Liens expressly permitted by Section 6.02.

     SECTION 3.20. Location of Real Property. Schedule 3.20 lists completely and correctly as of
the Closing Date all material real property owned by Holdings and the Material Subsidiaries and the
addresses thereof. Holdings and the Material Subsidiaries, as of the Closing Date, own in fee all
the material real property set forth on Schedule 3.20.

     SECTION 3.21. Labor Matters. As of the Closing Date, there are no material strikes, lockouts
or slowdowns against any Loan Party or any Material Subsidiary, to the knowledge of Holdings or any
Borrower, threatened. The hours worked by and payments made to employees of each Loan Party and
the subsidiaries thereof have not been in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act or any other
applicable Federal, state, local or foreign law dealing with such matters in any material respects.
All material payments due from any Loan Party or any Material Subsidiary, or for which any claim
may be made against any Loan Party or Material Subsidiary, on account of wages and employee health
and welfare insurance and other benefits, have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of
such Loan Party or Material Subsidiary. The consummation of the Transactions will not give rise to
any right of termination or right of renegotiation on the part of any union under any collective
bargaining agreement to which any Loan Party or Material Subsidiary is bound to the extent the same
could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

     SECTION 3.22. Solvency. Immediately after (a) the consummation of the Transactions to occur

acquired in accordance with the terms hereof may include schedules to qualify representations and
warranties made by such new Loan Party and that, in such case, all such representations and
warranties shall be so qualified with respect to such new Loan Party). In addition, from time to

and each other Loan Party will, at its cost and expense, promptly secure the Obligations by

the Agreed Security Principles) first priority (subject to the rights of Persons pursuant to Liens
expressly permitted by Section 6.02) security interests with respect to such of its assets and
properties as the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders shall designate. Such security
interests and Liens will be created under the Loan Documents and other security agreements,
mortgages, deeds of trust and other instruments and documents (including, where applicable, Foreign
Collateral Agreements) in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent
and Collateral Agent, and Holdings, the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties shall deliver or cause

accordance with the Agreed Security Principles to evidence compliance with this Section. Subject
to the Agreed Security Principles, each of Holdings, the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties
agrees to provide such evidence as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request as to the
perfection (where applicable) and priority status of each such security interest and Lien. In
furtherance of the foregoing, Holdings and the Borrowers will give prompt notice to the
Administrative Agent of the acquisition by any of them or any of their respective Subsidiaries of
any owned real property (or any interest in owned real property) having a value in excess of
$5,000,000.

     SECTION 5.13. Post-Closing Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that within
the time periods set forth in Schedule 5.13, or within such longer period or periods that the
Administrative Agent in its sole discretion may permit, Holdings and the Subsidiaries shall deliver
to the Administrative Agent the documents, and perform the actions, set forth on Schedule 5.13.

     SECTION 5.14. Proceeds of Certain Dispositions. If, as a result of the receipt of any cash
proceeds by Holdings or any Subsidiary in connection with any sale, transfer, lease or other
disposition of any asset, Holdings or any Subsidiary would be required by the terms of the Senior
Unsecured Note Documents to make an offer to purchase any Senior Unsecured Notes, then, prior to
the first day on which such Person would be required to commence such an offer to purchase,
Holdings or the applicable Subsidiary shall (i) prepay Loans in accordance with Section 2.12 or
(ii) acquire assets in a manner that is permitted hereby, in each case in a manner that will
eliminate any such requirement to make such an offer to purchase.

ARTICLE VIII

The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent

     Each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent and the
Collateral Agent (for purposes of this Article VIII, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral
Agent are referred to collectively as the “Agents”) its agent and authorizes the Agents to take
such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to such Agent by the terms
of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agents are hereby expressly authorized to (i)
execute any and all documents (including releases) with respect to the Collateral and the rights of
the Secured Parties with respect thereto, as contemplated by and in accordance with the provisions
of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii) negotiate, enforce or settle any claim,
action or proceeding affecting the Lenders in their capacity as such, at the direction of the
Required Lenders, which negotiation, enforcement or settlement will be binding upon each Lender.

     The institution serving as Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent under any Loan
Documents shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and
may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and such bank and its Affiliates may accept
deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with Holdings, any
Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not an Agent hereunder.

     The Administrative Agent shall have no duties or obligations except those expressly set forth
in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative
Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a
Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to
take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and
powers expressly contemplated hereby that such Agent is instructed in writing to exercise by the
Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the
circumstances as provided in Section 9.08), and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan
Documents, neither Agent shall have any duty to disclose, nor shall it be liable for the failure to
disclose, any information relating to Holdings or any Subsidiary that is communicated to or
obtained by the bank serving as the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent or any of
their respective Affiliates in any capacity. Neither Agent shall be liable for any action taken or
not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or
percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section
9.08) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Neither Agent shall be
deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to such
Agent by Holdings, a Borrower or a Lender, and neither Agent shall be responsible for or have any
duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in
connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document
delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the performance or

127

 

observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any
Loan Document, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document
or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth
in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly
required to be delivered to such Agent.

     Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon,
any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing
believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. Each Agent may
also rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made
by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. Each Agent may
consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), independent accountants and
other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in
accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

     Each Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through
any one or more sub-agents appointed by it. Each Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and
all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties.
The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the
Related Parties of each Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective
activities in connection with the syndication of the Credit Facilities as well as their activities
as Agent.

     Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided
below, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Banks
and the Borrowers. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint
from among the Lenders a successor, which successor, so long as no Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, shall be subject to approval by Holdings (which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required
Lenders and approved by Holdings (to the extent required) and shall have accepted such appointment
within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the
retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a
successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an
Affiliate of any such bank and, which successor, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing, shall be subject to approval by Holdings (which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed
pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence by the 30th day after the date such notice of
resignation was given by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent’s resignation shall
become effective and the Required Lenders shall thereafter perform all the duties of the
Administrative Agent hereunder and/or under any other Loan Document until such time, if any, as the
Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent. Any such resignation by the
Administrative Agent hereunder shall also constitute, to the extent applicable, its resignation as
an Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender, in which case such resigning Administrative Agent (a)
shall not be required to issue any further Letters of Credit or

128

 

make any additional Swingline Loans hereunder and (b) shall maintain all of its rights as
Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender, as the case may be, with respect to any Letters of Credit issued
by it, or Swingline Loans made by it, prior to the date of such resignation. Upon the acceptance
of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed
to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring
Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and
obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent shall
be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and
such successor. After an Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this
Article and Section 9.05 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative
Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or
omitted to be taken by any of them while acting as Administrative Agent.

     Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agents or
any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its
own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that
it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agents or any other Lender and based on such
documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own
decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

     Without limiting the foregoing, no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize
upon any of the Collateral or to enforce any Guarantee of the Obligations, it being understood and
agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the
Agents on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof. In the event of a
foreclosure by the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale
or other disposition, any Lender may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral at any such
sale or other disposition, and the Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of the Secured
Parties (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities) shall be
entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all
or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as
a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by the Collateral Agent on
behalf of the Secured Parties at such sale or other disposition. Each Secured Party, whether or
not a party hereto, will be deemed, by its acceptance of the benefits of the Collateral and of the
Guarantees of the Obligations provided under the Loan Documents, to have agreed to the foregoing
provisions. The provisions of this paragraph are for the sole benefit of the Lenders and shall not
afford any right to, or constitute a defense available to, any Loan Party.

     Each Lender and each Issuing Bank acknowledges and agrees that the Collateral Agent, in
undertaking the actions and exercising the powers authorized hereunder, is intended to have, and
shall have, the additional protections, immunities, rights,

129

 

indemnities and benefits conferred on the Collateral Agent in the Security Documents and the
other Loan Documents.

     Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any provision of any other Loan
Document, each of the persons named on the cover page hereof as Joint Lead Bookrunner, Joint Lead
Arranger or Documentation Agent is named as such for recognition purposes only, and in its capacity
as such shall have no duties, responsibilities or liabilities with respect to this Agreement or any
other Loan Document; it being understood and agreed that each such person and its Affiliates shall
be entitled to all indemnification and reimbursement rights in favor of the Agents provided herein
and in the other Loan Documents. Without limitation of the foregoing, no such person, in its
capacity as Joint Bookrunner, Joint Lead Arranger or Documentation Agent shall, by reason of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, have any fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender,
Loan Party or any other Person.

the applicable Lenders from time to time, notices and other communications may also be delivered by
e-mail to the e-mail address of a representative of the applicable Person provided from time to
time by such Person.

     Holdings and each Borrower hereby agree, unless directed otherwise by the Administrative Agent
or unless the electronic mail address referred to below has not been provided by the Administrative
Agent to Holdings or the Borrowers, that it will, or will cause the Subsidiaries to, provide to the
Administrative Agent all information, documents and other materials that it is obligated to furnish
to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents or to the Lenders under Article V,
including all notices, requests, financial statements, financial and other reports, certificates
and other information materials, but excluding any such communication that (a) is or relates to a
Borrowing Request, a notice pursuant to Section 2.10 or a notice requesting the issuance,
amendment, extension or renewal of a Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.23, (b) relates to the

Loan Document or (d) is required to be delivered to satisfy any condition precedent to the
effectiveness of this Agreement and/or any Borrowing or other extension of credit hereunder (all
such non-excluded communications being referred to herein collectively as “Communications”), by
transmitting the Communications in an electronic/soft medium that is properly identified in a
format acceptable to the Administrative Agent to an electronic mail address as directed by the
Administrative Agent. In addition, Holdings and each Borrower agree, and agree to cause the
Subsidiaries, to continue to provide the Communications to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders,
as the case may be, in the manner specified in the Loan Documents but only to the extent requested
by the Administrative Agent.

     Holdings and each Borrower hereby acknowledge that (a) the Administrative Agent will make
available to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks materials and/or information provided by or on
behalf of Holdings and the Borrowers hereunder (collectively, the “Borrower Materials”) by posting
the Borrower Materials on Intralinks or another similar electronic system (the “Platform”) and (b)
certain of the Lenders may be “public-side” Lenders (i.e., Lenders that do not wish to receive
material non-public information with respect to each Borrower or its securities) (each, a “Public
Lender”). Holdings and each Borrower hereby agree that (i) all Borrower Materials that are to be
made available to Public Lenders shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a
minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (ii)
by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the Borrowers shall be deemed to have authorized the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any
material non-public information with respect to Holdings and any Borrower or its securities for
purposes of foreign, United States federal and state securities laws (provided, however, that to
the extent such Borrower Materials constitute Information, they shall be treated as set forth in
Section 9.16); (iii) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available
through a portion of the Platform designated as “Public Investor;” and (iv) the

131

 

Administrative Agent shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked
“PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not marked as “Public
Investor.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following Borrower Materials shall be marked
“PUBLIC”, unless Holdings or a Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent promptly that any such
document contains material non-public information: (A) the Loan Documents and (B) notification of
changes in the terms of the Credit Facilities.

     Each Public Lender agrees to cause at least one individual at or on behalf of such Public
Lender to at all times have selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the
content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender or its delegate,
in accordance with such Public Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable law, including
foreign, United States Federal and state securities laws, to make reference to Communications that
are not made available through the “Public Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may
contain material non-public information with respect to Holdings or a Borrower or its securities
for purposes of foreign, United States Federal or state securities laws.

     THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. NEITHER THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT NOR ANY
OF ITS RELATED PARTIES WARRANTS THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE ADEQUACY
OF THE PLATFORM AND EACH EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE
COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF
MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR
FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS IS MADE BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF ITS
RELATED PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF ITS RELATED PARTIES HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY LOAN PARTY, ANY LENDER
OR ANY OTHER PERSON FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER OR NOT BASED ON STRICT LIABILITY AND INCLUDING
DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN
TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF ANY LOAN PARTY’S OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S
TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THE LIABILITY OF ANY SUCH
PERSON IS FOUND IN A FINAL RULING BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO HAVE RESULTED PRIMARILY
FROM SUCH PERSON’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT.

     The Administrative Agent agrees that the receipt of the Communications by the Administrative
Agent at its e-mail address set forth above shall constitute effective delivery of the
Communications to the Administrative Agent for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees
that receipt of notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that the Communications
have been posted to the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such
Lender for purposes of the

132

 

Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (including
by electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s e-mail address to which the
foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and that the foregoing notice may be sent
to such e-mail address.

     Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to give any
notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such
Loan Document.

     SECTION 9.02. Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and
warranties made by each Loan Party herein and in the certificates or other instruments prepared or
delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be
considered to have been relied upon by the Lenders and the Issuing Banks and shall survive the
making by the Lenders of the Loans and the issuance of Letters of Credit by the Issuing Banks,
regardless of any investigation made by the Lenders or the Issuing Banks or on their behalf, and
shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any
Loan or any Fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is
outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have
not been terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.16, 2.20 and 9.05 shall remain operative
and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the
expiration of the Commitments, the expiration of any Letter of Credit, the invalidity or
unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any
investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender or
any Issuing Bank.

     SECTION 9.03. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been
executed by each Loan Party and the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall
have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the
other parties hereto.

     SECTION 9.04. Successors and Assigns. (a) Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties
hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the permitted successors and
assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of the Loan
Parties, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Lenders that are contained in this
Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns.

     (b) Each Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its
interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its
Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) (with the prior written consent of the
applicable Borrower or Borrowers, if required by the definition of the term “Eligible
Assignee”, being deemed given unless such Borrower or Borrowers shall have objected to such
assignment by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five Business Days after
having received notice thereof); provided, however, that (i) notwithstanding anything to
the

133

 

contrary in the definition of “Eligible Assignee”, the consent of the applicable
Borrower shall not be required to any such assignment made in connection with the initial
syndication of the Credit Facilities to Persons identified by the Administrative Agent to
the Borrowers on or prior to the Closing Date, (ii) the amount of the Commitment or Loans
of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the
Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the
Administrative Agent) shall be not less than, $1,000,000 (or, if less, the entire remaining
amount of such Lender’s Commitment or Loans of the relevant Class); provided that
simultaneous assignments to or by two or more Related Funds shall be combined for purposes
of determining whether the minimum assignment requirement is met; (iii) the parties to each
assignment shall (A) execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and
Acceptance via an electronic settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent or
(B) if previously agreed with the Administrative Agent, manually execute and deliver to the
Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, and, in each case (excluding Joint Lead
Arrangers), shall pay to the Administrative Agent a processing and recordation fee of
$3,500 (which fee may be waived or reduced in the sole discretion of the Administrative
Agent); and (iv) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire (in which the assignee shall designate
one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain
material non-public information about the Loan Parties and their Related Parties or their
respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in
accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal
and state securities laws) and all applicable tax forms. Upon acceptance and recording
pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 9.04, from and after the effective date specified
in each Assignment and Acceptance, (A) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and,
to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights
and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement and (B) the assigning Lender thereunder
shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, 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 assigning Lender’s rights and
obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall
continue to be entitled to the benefits and be subject to the obligations, of Sections
2.14, 2.16, 2.20 and 9.05, as well as to the benefit of any Fees accrued for its account
and not yet paid). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall be permitted to make
assignments under this Agreement to any Disqualified Institutions.

     (c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender
thereunder and the assignee thereunder shall be deemed to confirm to and agree with each
other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) such assigning Lender warrants that it
is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being assigned thereby free and clear of
any lien or other adverse claim and that its Commitments, and the outstanding balances of
its Loans, in each case

134

 

without giving effect to assignments thereof which have not become effective, are as
set forth in such Assignment and Acceptance; (ii) except as set forth in clause (i) above,
such 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 the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness,
sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or
document furnished pursuant hereto, or the financial condition of Holdings or any
Subsidiary or the performance or observance by any Loan Party of any of its obligations
under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished
pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee represents and warrants that it is an Eligible
Assignee legally authorized to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such
assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of
the most recent financial statements referred to in Section 3.05(a) or delivered pursuant
to Section 5.04 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to
make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (v)
such assignee will independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, such
assigning Lender or any other 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; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes the
Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf
and to exercise such powers under the Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative
Agent and the Collateral Agent, respectively, by the terms hereof and thereof, together
with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (viii) such assignee agrees that
it will perform in accordance with their terms all the obligations which by the terms of
this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

     (d) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers,
shall maintain at one of its offices in The City of New York a copy of each Assignment and
Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of
the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender
pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the
Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error and the Borrowers, the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose
name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all
purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be
available for inspection by the Borrowers, any Issuing Bank, the Collateral Agent and any
Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

     (e) Upon its receipt of, and consent to, a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance
executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, an Administrative Questionnaire completed
in respect of the assignee (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the
processing and recordation fee

135

 

referred to in paragraph (b) above, if applicable, and the written consent of the
Administrative Agent and, if required, the Borrowers, the Swingline Lender and each Issuing
Bank to such assignment and any applicable tax forms, the Administrative Agent shall (i)
accept such Assignment and Acceptance and (ii) record the information contained therein in
the Register. No assignment shall be effective unless it has been recorded in the Register
as provided in this paragraph (e), and it shall be the sole responsibility of each assignee
to confirm such recordation.

     (f) Each Lender may without the consent of any Borrower, the Swingline Lender, any
Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent sell participations to one or more banks or other
Persons in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including
all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided, however, that (i)
such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender
shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such
obligations, (iii) the participating banks or other Persons shall be entitled to the
benefit, and be subject to the obligations, of the cost protection provisions contained in
Sections 2.14, 2.16 and 2.20 to the same extent as if they were Lenders (but, with respect
to any particular participant, to no greater extent than the Lender that sold the
participation to such participant) and (iv) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Banks and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender
in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and such
Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the obligations of the Borrowers relating to
the Loans or L/C Disbursements and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any
provision of this Agreement (other than amendments, modifications or waivers decreasing any
fees payable to such participating bank or Person hereunder or the amount of principal of
or the rate at which interest is payable on the Loans in which such participating bank or
Person has an interest, extending any scheduled principal payment date or date fixed for
the payment of interest on the Loans in which such participating bank or Person has an
interest, increasing or extending the Commitments in which such participating bank or
Person has an interest or releasing any Guarantor (other than in connection with the sale
of such Guarantor in a transaction permitted by Section 6.05) or all or substantially all
of the Collateral). To the extent permitted by law, each participating bank or other
Person also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.06 as though it were a Lender;
provided that such participating bank or other Person agrees to be subject to Section 2.18
as though it were a Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall be permitted to
sell participations under this Agreement to any Disqualified Institutions.

     (g) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an
agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each
participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest
in the loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”);
provided that no Lender shall be

136

 

required to disclose or share the information in such register with the Borrowers or
any other Person, except as required by applicable law. The entries in the Participant
Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person
whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for
all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

     (h) Any Lender or participant may, in connection with any assignment or participation
or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 9.04, disclose to the
assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant any information relating to
Holdings or any Subsidiary furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of Holdings and the
Subsidiaries; provided that, prior to any such disclosure of information, each such
assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall execute an agreement
whereby such assignee or participant shall agree (subject to customary exceptions) to
preserve the confidentiality of such information on terms no less restrictive than those
applicable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 9.16.

     (i) Any Lender may at any time assign all or any portion of its rights under this
Agreement to secure extensions of credit to such Lender or in support of obligations owed
by such Lender; provided that no such assignment shall release a Lender from any of its
obligations hereunder or substitute any such assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

     (j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting
Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPV”), identified as such in
writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the
Borrowers, the option to provide to the Borrowers all or any part of any Loan that such
Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrowers pursuant to this
Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPV to
make any Loan and (ii) if an SPV elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to
provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such
Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPV hereunder shall utilize
the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by
such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPV shall be liable for any
indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall
remain with the Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto
hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior
to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding
commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPV, it will not institute against, or
join any other Person in instituting against, such SPV any bankruptcy, reorganization,
arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or
any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Section 9.04, any SPV may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the
Borrowers and

137

 

the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any
Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by the
Borrowers and Administrative Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the
account of such SPV to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a
confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency,
commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity
enhancement to such SPV. In the event that a Lender makes a grant to an SPV pursuant to
this Section 9.04(j) or an SPV elects to exercise an option granted to it pursuant to this
Section 9.04(j), no Loan Party shall be required to make payments under Section 2.20 in an
amount in excess of the amount that it would be required to pay in the absence of such
grant or election. Each Granting Lender shall, acting for this purpose as an agent of the
Borrowers, maintain at one of its offices a register substantially similar to the Register
for the recordation of the names and addresses of any SPV that has exercised an option to
provide a Loan to the Borrowers and the amount and terms of such Loan; provided that no
Granting Lender shall be required to disclose or share the information contained in such
register with the Borrowers or any other Person, except as required by applicable law.

     (k) None of Holdings or any Borrower shall assign or delegate any of its rights or
duties hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, each
Issuing Bank and each Lender, and any attempted assignment without such consent shall be
null and void.

     (l) In the event that any Revolving Credit Lender shall become a Defaulting Lender or
S&P, Moody’s and Thompson’s BankWatch (or InsuranceWatch Ratings Service, in the case of
Lenders that are insurance companies (or Best’s Insurance Reports, if such insurance
company is not rated by Insurance Watch Ratings Service)) shall, after the date that any
Lender becomes a Revolving Credit Lender, downgrade the long-term certificate deposit
ratings of such Lender, and the resulting ratings shall be below BBB-, Baa3 and C (or BB,
in the case of a Lender that is an insurance company (or B, in the case of an insurance
company not rated by InsuranceWatch Ratings Service)) (or, with respect to any Revolving
Credit Lender that is not rated by any such ratings service or provider, any Issuing Bank
or the Swingline Lender shall have reasonably determined that there has occurred a material
adverse change in the financial condition of any such Lender, or a material impairment of
the ability of any such Lender to perform its obligations hereunder, as compared to such
condition or ability as of the date that any such Lender became a Revolving Credit Lender)
then such Issuing Bank shall have the right, but not the obligation, at its own expense,
upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, to replace such Lender with an
assignee (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in paragraph (b)
above), and such Lender hereby agrees to transfer and assign without recourse (in
accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in paragraph (b) above) all its
interests, rights and obligations in respect of its Revolving Credit Commitment to such
assignee;

138

 

provided, however, that (i) no such assignment shall conflict with any law, rule
and regulation or order of any Governmental Authority and (ii) such Issuing Bank or
such assignee, as the case may be, shall pay to such Lender in immediately available funds
on the date of such assignment the principal of and interest accrued to the date of payment
on the Loans made by such Lender hereunder and all other amounts accrued for such Lender’s
account or owed to it hereunder.

     SECTION 9.05. Expenses; Indemnity. (a) The Loan Parties agree, jointly and severally, to pay
all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the
Collateral Agent, each Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender in connection with the syndication of
the Credit Facilities and the preparation and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents or in connection with any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof
or thereof (whether or not the transactions hereby or thereby contemplated shall be consummated);
provided that, except as otherwise may be agreed in the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the
Loan Parties shall not be responsible for the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of more
than one separate law firm (in addition to one local counsel per relevant jurisdiction). The Loan
Parties also agree to pay all documented and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative
Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender in connection with the enforcement or protection of its
rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or in connection with the
Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder (including in connection with any restructuring or
“work-out”, whether or not consummated), including the reasonable and documented fees, charges and
disbursements of Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP, counsel for the Administrative Agent, and, in
connection with any such enforcement or protection, the reasonable and documented fees, charges and
disbursements of any other counsel for the Administrative Agent or any Lender.

     (b) The Loan Parties agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify the Administrative
Agent, each Lender, each Issuing Bank and each Related Party of any of the foregoing
Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and to hold each
Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related
expenses, including reasonable counsel fees, charges and disbursements, incurred by or
asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result
of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any
agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties thereto of
their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions and the
other transactions contemplated thereby (including the syndication of the Credit
Facilities) and any Borrowing hereunder, (ii) the use of the proceeds of the Loans or
issuance of Letters of Credit, (iii) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding
relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto (and
regardless of whether such matter is initiated by a third party or by the Borrowers, any
other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates), or (iv) any Release or actual or
alleged presence of Hazardous Materials on, at or under any property currently or formerly
owned, leased or operated by Holdings or any Subsidiary or any Environmental Liability
related in any way to Holdings

139

 

or any Subsidiary; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related
expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable
judgment (or settlement tantamount thereto) to have resulted from (i) the bad faith, gross
negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or Related Party of such Indemnitee or
(ii) claims against such Indemnitee or any Related Party brought by any other Indemnitee
that (x) did not arise out of any action or inaction on the part of Holdings or any of its
Affiliates and (y) do not involve the Lead Arranger or an Agent in its capacity as such.
This Section 9.05 shall not apply with respect to Taxes except as necessary to hold such
Indemnitee harmless from any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related
expenses with respect to any non-Tax claim.

     (c) To the extent that any Loan Party fails to pay any amount required to be paid by
it to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline
Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section or under any other Loan Document, each
Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or the
Swingline Lender, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the
time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought and, in the
case of the Collateral Agent, subject to pro rata allocation with the holders of any
Additional Senior Secured Indebtedness to the extent provided for in the First Lien
Intercreditor Agreement) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or
indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was
incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or the
Swingline Lender in its capacity as such. For purposes hereof, a Lender’s “pro rata share”
shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the Aggregate Revolving Credit
Exposure, outstanding Term Loans and unused Commitments at the time (in each case,
determined as if no Lender were a Defaulting Lender).

     (d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, none of Holdings and the Borrowers
shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of
liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct
or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or
any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions and any Borrowing, Loan
or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.

     (e) The provisions of this Section 9.05 shall remain operative and in full force and
effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the expiration of the
Commitments, the expiration of any Letter of Credit, the invalidity or unenforceability of
any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation
made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender or any

140

 

Issuing Bank. All amounts due under this Section 9.05 shall be payable on written demand
therefor.

     SECTION 9.06. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
each Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, except to the extent prohibited
by law, to 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 Lender to or for the
credit or the account of any Loan Party against any of and all the obligations of any Loan Party
now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and other Loan Documents held by such Lender,
irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such
other Loan Document and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender
under this Section 9.06 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of
setoff) which such Lender may have.

     SECTION 9.07. Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (OTHER THAN LETTERS
OF CREDIT AND AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS) AND ALL CLAIMS AND CONTROVERSIES IN
CONNECTION THEREWITH SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF
NEW YORK. EACH LETTER OF CREDIT AND ALL CLAIMS AND CONTROVERSIES IN CONNECTION THEREWITH SHALL BE
GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OR RULES DESIGNATED IN SUCH LETTER
OF CREDIT, OR IF NO SUCH LAWS OR RULES ARE DESIGNATED, THE UNIFORM CUSTOMS AND PRACTICE FOR
DOCUMENTARY CREDITS MOST RECENTLY PUBLISHED AND IN EFFECT, ON THE DATE SUCH LETTER OF CREDIT WAS
ISSUED, BY THE INTERNATIONAL CHAMBER OF COMMERCE (THE “UNIFORM CUSTOMS”) AND, AS TO MATTERS NOT
GOVERNED BY THE UNIFORM CUSTOMS, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

     SECTION 9.08. Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay of the Administrative Agent, any
Lender or any Issuing Bank in exercising any power or 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 or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power,
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The
rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Banks and the
Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any
rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or
any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event
be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) below, and then such waiver or
consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No
notice or demand on any Loan Party in any case shall entitle any Loan Party to any other or further
notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

141

 

     (b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or
modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by Holdings,
the other Loan Parties and the Required Lenders; provided, however, that no such agreement
shall (i) decrease the principal amount of, or extend the maturity of or any scheduled
principal payment date or date for the payment of any interest on any Loan or any date for
reimbursement of an L/C Disbursement, or waive or excuse any such payment or any part
thereof, or decrease the rate of interest on any Loan or L/C Disbursement, without the
prior written consent of each Lender directly adversely affected thereby, (ii) increase or
extend the Commitment or decrease or extend the date for payment of any Fees of any Lender
without the prior written consent of such Lender, (iii) amend or modify the provisions of
Section 9.04(k) or the provisions of this Section or release one or more Guarantors
representing all or substantially all of the value of the Guarantees hereunder (other than
in connection with the sale of such Guarantors in a transaction permitted by Section 6.05)
or all or substantially all of the Collateral, without the prior written consent of each
Lender, (iv) change the provisions of any Loan Document in a manner that by its terms
directly adversely affects the rights in respect of payments due to Lenders holding Loans
of one Class differently from the rights of Lenders holding Loans of any other Class
without the prior written consent of Lenders holding a majority in interest of the
outstanding Loans and unused Commitments of each directly adversely affected Class, (v)
modify the protections afforded to an SPV pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.04(j)
without the written consent of such SPV or (vi) reduce the percentage contained in the
definition of the term “Required Lenders” without the prior written consent of each Lender
(it being understood that with the consent of the Required Lenders, additional extensions
of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination of the Required
Lenders on substantially the same basis as the Term Loan Commitments and Revolving Credit
Commitments on the date hereof); provided that (A) no such agreement shall amend, modify or
otherwise adversely affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral
Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document
without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, such
Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, (B) any waiver, amendment or
modification of this Agreement that by its terms solely directly adversely affects the
rights or duties under this Agreement of Lenders holding Loans or Commitments of one or
several particular Class or Classes (but not the Lenders holding Loans or Commitments of
any other Class) may be effected by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by
Holdings, the Borrowers and the requisite percentage in interest of the affected Class or
Classes of Lenders that would be required to consent thereto under this Section if such
Class or Classes of Lenders were the only Class or Classes of Lenders hereunder at the time
and (C) Loan Modification Offers may be made as set forth in Section 9.22.

     (c) The Administrative Agent, Holdings and the Borrowers may amend any Loan Document
to correct administrative or manifest errors or omissions, or to effect administrative
changes that are not adverse to any Lender; provided,

142

 

however, that no such amendment shall become effective until the fifth Business Day
after it has been posted to the Lenders, and then only if the Required Lenders have not
objected in writing thereto within such five Business Day period.

     SECTION 9.09. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if
at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan or participation in any L/C Disbursement,
together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan or
participation in such L/C Disbursement under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall
exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken,
received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan or participation in accordance with applicable
law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan or participation hereunder, together with
all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent
lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan or
participation but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section 9.09 shall be
cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or
participations or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such
cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of
repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

     SECTION 9.10. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Fee Letters and the other Loan Documents
constitute the entire contract between the parties relative to the subject matter hereof. Any
other previous agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof is superseded
by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Nothing in this Agreement or in the other Loan
Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any Person (other than the parties
hereto and thereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereunder (including any
Affiliate of any Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), to the extent expressly
contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and
the Lenders) and, (a) solely with respect to Article VIII, Section 9.20 and Article X, the
Collateral Agent and (b) solely with respect to Section 9.20 and Article X, the Hedge Providers and
Cash Management Banks) any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

     SECTION 9.11. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT
PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION
DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE
OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF
ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE
EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE
OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS,
AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER

143

 

THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.11.

     SECTION 9.12. Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this
Agreement or in any other Loan Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and
therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the
invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect
the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties shall endeavor in
good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid
provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal
or unenforceable provisions.

     SECTION 9.13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different
parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original but all of
which when taken together shall constitute a single contract, and shall become effective as
provided in Section 9.03. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or
other customary means of electronic transmission (e.g., “pdf”) shall be as effective as delivery of
a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement.

     SECTION 9.14. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein
are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect the
construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

     SECTION 9.15. Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) Each Loan Party hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction
of any New York State court or Federal court of the United States of America sitting in the Borough
of Manhattan, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of
or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of any
judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all
claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York
State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto 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 in
this Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any
Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents against any Borrower, Holdings or their respective properties
in the courts of any jurisdiction.

     (b) Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest
extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter
have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to
this Agreement or the other Loan Documents in any

144

 

New York State or Federal court. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably
waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the
maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

     (c) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the
manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the
right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

     (d) Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Closing Date
Borrower as its authorized agent upon which process may be served in any action, suit or
proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement that may be instituted by the
Administrative Agent or any Lender in any Federal or state court in the State of New York.
Each Loan Party hereby agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by
U.S. registered mail addressed to the Closing Date Borrower, with written notice of said
service to such Person at the address above shall be effective service of process for any
action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court.

     SECTION 9.16. Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the
Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that
Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ officers, directors, employees and
agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the
Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such
Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by
any regulatory authority or quasi-regulatory authority (such as the National Association of
Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any
subpoena or similar legal process, (d) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or
under the other Loan Documents or any suit, action or proceeding relating to the enforcement of its
rights hereunder or thereunder, (e) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the
same as those of this Section 9.16, to (i) any actual or prospective assignee of or participant in
any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or (ii) any
actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating
to Holdings or any Subsidiary or any of their respective obligations, (f) with the consent of
Holdings or a Borrower or (g) to the extent such Information becomes publicly available other than
as a result of a breach of this Section 9.16. For the purposes of this Section, “Information”
shall mean all information received from the Borrowers or Holdings and related to such Person or
its or their business, other than any such information that was available to the Administrative
Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to its disclosure by the
Borrowers or Holdings. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as
provided in this Section 9.16 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if
such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such
Information as such Person would accord its own confidential information.

     SECTION 9.17. Conversion of Currencies. (a) If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any
court, it is necessary to convert a sum owing hereunder in one currency into another currency, each
party hereto agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange
used shall be that at which, in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant
jurisdiction, the first currency could be purchased with such other currency on the Business Day
immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given.

     (b) The obligations of each party in respect of any sum due to any other party hereto
or any holder of the obligations owing hereunder (the “Applicable Creditor”) shall,
notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the
currency in which such sum is stated to be due hereunder (the “Agreement Currency”), be
discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable
Creditor of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable Creditor
may in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction purchase the
Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of the Agreement Currency so
purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Applicable Creditor in the Agreement
Currency, such party agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such
judgment, to indemnify the Applicable Creditor against such loss. The obligations of the
Loan Parties contained in this Section 9.17 shall survive the termination of this Agreement
and the payment of all other amounts owing hereunder.

     SECTION 9.18. USA PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent (for itself
and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies each Loan Party that pursuant to the requirements
of the USA PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies
each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of each Loan Party and other
information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify
each Loan Party in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act.

     SECTION 9.19. Additional Borrowers and Currencies. (a) Holdings or any Borrower may
designate any of its Wholly Owned Subsidiaries as a Borrower under any of the Revolving Credit
Commitments or pursuant to an Incremental Assumption Agreement; provided that (i) the
Administrative Agent shall be reasonably satisfied that the Lenders of the applicable Class may
make loans and other extensions of credit to such Person in such Person’s jurisdiction and in the
currency or currencies requested therefor in compliance with applicable laws and regulations and
without being subject to any unreimbursed or unindemnified Tax or other expense and (ii) the
Administrative Agent shall have received, at least five Business Days prior to the date on which
such Person is proposed to become a Borrower hereunder, all documentation and other information
required by regulatory authorities under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering
rules and regulations, including to the extent applicable, the USA PATRIOT Act. Upon the receipt
by the Administrative Agent of a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement executed by such Wholly Owned
Subsidiary of Holdings, Holdings and the Borrowers, such Wholly Owned Subsidiary of Holdings shall
be a Borrower and a party

146

 

to this Agreement. A Person shall cease to be a Borrower hereunder at such time as no Loans,
Fees or any other amounts due in connection therewith pursuant to the terms hereof shall be
outstanding by such Person, no Letters of Credit issued for the account of such Person shall be
outstanding and such Person and its parent Borrower shall have executed and delivered to the
Administrative Agent a Borrowing Subsidiary Termination.

     (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Person shall be added as a Borrower hereunder
pursuant to this Section 9.19 unless (i) on the effective date of such addition, the
conditions set forth in paragraphs (b) and (c) of Section 4.01 shall be satisfied and the
Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated such date and
executed by a Financial Officer of the applicable potential Borrower or Borrowers and (ii)
except as otherwise specified in the applicable Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement, the
Administrative Agent shall have received legal opinions, board resolutions and other
closing certificates reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent and consistent with
those delivered on the Closing Date under Section 4.02.

     (c) In the event that any additional Borrower proposes that Revolving Loans or
Swingline Loans be made available to it, or Letters of Credit or bank guarantees be issued
for its account, in a currency other than dollars, then, subject to the Administrative
Agent’s satisfaction described in paragraph (a) above, the applicable Borrowing Subsidiary
Agreement shall set forth the administrative, rate setting and other loan funding and
payment provisions that may be necessary to govern extensions of credit in the applicable
currency or currencies. Any such provisions shall be deemed to be incorporated in this
Agreement by reference.

     SECTION 9.20. Application of Proceeds. Upon receipt from the Collateral Agent of the proceeds
of any collection, sale, foreclosure or other realization upon any Collateral, including any
Collateral consisting of cash, following the exercise of remedies provided for in Article VII (or
after the Loans have automatically become due and payable as set forth in Article VII), the
Administrative Agent shall apply such proceeds as follows:

     (a) FIRST, to the payment of all costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative
Agent (in its capacity as such hereunder or under any other Loan Document) or, prior to the
effectiveness of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the Collateral Agent (in its
capacity as such under the U.S. Collateral Agreement or under any other Loan Document) in
connection with such collection, sale, foreclosure or realization or otherwise in
connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including all court costs and
the fees and expenses of its agents and legal counsel, the repayment of all advances made
by the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document on behalf of any
Loan Party and any other costs or expenses incurred in connection with the exercise of any
right or remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document;

     (b) SECOND, to the payment in full of Unfunded Advances/Participations (the amounts so
applied to be distributed between or

147

 

among the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks pro rata in accordance with the
amounts of Unfunded Advances/Participations owed to them on the date of any such
distribution); and

     (c) THIRD, to the payment in full of all other Obligations (the amounts so applied to
be distributed among the Secured Parties pro rata in accordance with the amounts of the
Obligations owed to them on the date of any such distribution).

     The Administrative Agent shall have absolute discretion as to the time of application of any
such proceeds, moneys or balances in accordance with this Agreement.

     SECTION 9.21. Loan Parties’ Agent. (a) Each Loan Party (other than the Loan Parties’ Agent)
by its execution of this Agreement or a Guarantor Joinder irrevocably appoints the Loan Parties’
Agent to act on its behalf in relation to the Loan Documents and irrevocably authorizes:

     (i) the Loan Parties’ Agent on its behalf to supply all information concerning itself
contemplated by this Agreement to the Secured Parties and to give all notices and
instructions (including, in the case of a Borrower, Borrowing Requests), to execute on its
behalf any Guarantor Joinder, to make such agreements and to effect the relevant
amendments, supplements and variations capable of being given, made or effected by any Loan
Party notwithstanding that they may affect such Loan Party, without further reference to or
the consent of such Loan Party; and

     (ii) each Secured Party to give any notice, demand or other communication to such Loan
Party pursuant to any Loan Document to the Loan Parties’ Agent, and in each case such Loan
Party shall be bound as though such Loan Party itself had given the notices and
instructions (including without limitation, any Borrowing Requests) or executed or made the
agreements or effected the amendments, supplements or variations, or received the relevant
notice, demand or other communication.

     (b) Every act, omission, agreement, undertaking, settlement, waiver, amendment,
supplement, variation, notice or other communication given or made by the Loan Parties’
Agent or given to the Loan Parties’ Agent under any Loan Document on behalf of another Loan
Party or in connection with any Loan Document (whether or not known to any other Loan Party
and whether occurring before or after such other Loan Party became a Loan Party under any
Loan Document) shall be binding for all purposes on such Loan Party as if such Loan Party
had expressly made, given or concurred with it. In the event of any conflict between any
notices or other communications of the Loan Parties’ Agent and any other Loan Party, those
of the Loan Parties’ Agent shall prevail.

     SECTION 9.22. Loan Modification Offers. (a) Holdings may, by written notice to the
Administrative Agent from time to time, make one or more offers (each, a “Loan Modification Offer”)
to all the Lenders of one or more Classes of Loans and/or

148

 

Commitments (each Class subject to such a Loan Modification Offer, an “Affected Class”) to
make one or more Permitted Amendments (as defined in clause (c) below) pursuant to procedures
reasonably specified by the Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to Holdings. Such
notice shall set forth (i) the terms and conditions of the requested Permitted Amendment and (ii)
the date on which such Permitted Amendment is requested to become effective. Permitted Amendments
shall become effective only with respect to the Loans and Commitments of the Lenders of the
Affected Class that accept the applicable Loan Modification Offer (such Lenders, the “Accepting
Lenders”) and, in the case of any Accepting Lender, only with respect to such Lender’s Loans and
Commitments of such Affected Class as to which such Lender’s acceptance has been made.

     (b) Holdings, each other Loan Party and each Accepting Lender shall execute and
deliver to the Administrative Agent a Loan Modification Agreement and such other
documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the
acceptance of the Permitted Amendments and the terms and conditions thereof. The
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Loan
Modification Agreement. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the
effectiveness of any Loan Modification Agreement, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to
the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the
Permitted Amendment evidenced thereby and only with respect to the Loans and Commitments of
the Accepting Lenders of the Affected Class (including any amendments necessary to treat
the Loans and Commitments of the Accepting Lenders of the Affected Class as Other Term
Loans, Other Revolving Loans and/or Other Revolving Credit Commitments). Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no Permitted Amendment shall become effective under this Section 9.22 unless
the Administrative Agent, to the extent so reasonably requested by the Administrative
Agent, shall have received legal opinions, board resolutions and/or an officer’s
certificate consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date under Section 4.02(a) and
(c).

     (c) “Permitted Amendments” shall be (i) an extension of the final maturity date and
amortization of the applicable Loans and/or Commitments of the Accepting Lenders, (ii) a
change in the Applicable Margin and/or Fees payable with respect to the Loans and
Commitments of the Accepting Lenders, (iii) a modification to the covenants in Article V or
VI (provided that such changes shall apply only as between Holdings, the other Loan Parties
and the Subsidiaries (as applicable) and the Accepting Lenders) and (iv) such amendments as
are necessary to treat the modified Loans and Commitments of the Accepting Lenders as a new
Class of Loans and Commitments for all purposes under this Agreement.

ARTICLE X

Guarantee

     SECTION 10.01. Guarantee. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that it is jointly and severally
liable for, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, and absolutely and unconditionally
guarantees to the Secured Parties the prompt payment when due, whether at stated maturity, upon
acceleration after notice of prepayment or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of the
Obligations. Each Guarantor further agrees that the Obligations may be extended or renewed in
whole or in part without notice to or further assent from it, and that it remains bound upon its
Guarantee notwithstanding any such extension or renewal.

     SECTION 10.02. Guarantee of Payment. This Guarantee is a guarantee of payment when due and
not of collection. Each Guarantor waives any right to require any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any
Secured Party to sue any Borrower, any other Guarantor, any other guarantor, or any other Person
obligated for all or any part of the Obligations (each, an “Obligated Party”), or otherwise to
enforce its rights in respect of any collateral securing all or any part of the Obligations.

     SECTION 10.03. No Discharge or Diminishment of Guarantee. (a) Except as otherwise provided
for herein or set forth in any Guarantor Joinder (to the extent that such Guarantor Joinder
includes limitations and only in respect of the relevant Guarantor) or otherwise with the consent
of the Required Lenders, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are unconditional and absolute
and not subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than
the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Obligations), including: (i) any claim of waiver,
release, extension, renewal, settlement, surrender, alteration or compromise of any of the
Obligations, by operation of law or otherwise; (ii) any change in the corporate existence,
structure or ownership of any Borrower or any other guarantor of or other Person liable for any of
the Obligations; (iii) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding
affecting any Obligated Party, or their assets or any resulting release or discharge of any
obligation of any Obligated Party; or (iv) the existence of any claim, setoff or other rights which
any Guarantor may have at any time against any Obligated Party, any Agent, any Issuing Bank, any
Secured Party, or any other Person, whether in connection herewith or in any unrelated
transactions.

     (b) Subject to Section 10.03(d), the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are not
subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, or termination whatsoever by
reason of the invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability of any of the Obligations or
otherwise, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit payment
by any Obligated Party, of the Obligations or any part thereof.

     (c) Further, subject to the limitations set forth in any Guarantor Joinder, the
obligations of any Guarantor hereunder are not discharged or impaired or otherwise affected
by: (i) the failure of any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any

150

 

Secured Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy with respect to
all or any part of the Obligations; (ii) any waiver or modification of or supplement to any
provision of any agreement relating to the Obligations; (iii) any release, non-perfection,
or invalidity of any indirect or direct security for the obligations of any Borrower for
all or any part of the Obligations or any obligations of any other guarantor of or other
Person liable for any of the Obligations; (iv) any action or failure to act by any Agent,
any Issuing Bank or any Secured Party with respect to any collateral securing any part of
the Obligations; or (v) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the payment
or performance of any of the Obligations, or any other circumstance, act, omission or delay
that might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Guarantor or that would
otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than
the payment in full in cash of the Obligations).

     (d) Notwithstanding any provision in the contrary contained in this Agreement, the
Obligations and liabilities of each Subsidiary that becomes a Guarantor by executing a
Guarantor Joinder pursuant to Section 5.12 shall be limited by any applicable local law
provisions and laws set forth in such Guarantor Joinder.

     SECTION 10.04. Defenses Waived. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each
Guarantor hereby waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any Borrower or any
Guarantor or the unenforceability of all or any part of the Obligations from any cause, or the
cessation from any cause of the liability of the Borrower or any Guarantor, other than the
indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Obligations. Furthermore, to the extent specified in
the applicable Guarantor Joinder, each Guarantor waives the rights and defenses specified therein.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance
hereof, presentment, demand, protest and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any notice not
provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person
against any Obligated Party, or any other Person. The Collateral Agent may, at its election,
foreclose or enforce on any Collateral held by or on behalf of it by one or more judicial or
nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such Collateral in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise
act or fail to act with respect to any collateral securing all or a part of the Obligations, and
the Administrative Agent may, at its election, compromise or adjust any part of the Obligations,
make any other accommodation with any Obligated Party or exercise any other right or remedy
available to it against any Obligated Party, without affecting or impairing in any way the
liability of such Guarantor under this Guarantee except to the extent the Obligations have been
fully and indefeasibly paid in cash. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each
Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election even though that election may
operate, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or
subrogation or other right or remedy of any Guarantor against any Obligated Party or any security.

     SECTION 10.05. Rights of Subrogation. No Guarantor will assert any right, claim or cause of
action, including, without limitation, a claim of subrogation, contribution or indemnification that
it has against any Obligated Party (including against

151

 

any Guarantor that is released from its obligations hereunder pursuant to Section 10.12), or
any Collateral, until the Loan Parties have fully performed all their obligations to the Agents,
the Issuing Banks and the Secured Parties.

     SECTION 10.06. Reinstatement; Stay of Acceleration. If at any time any payment of any portion
of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency,
bankruptcy, or reorganization of any Borrower or otherwise, each Guarantor’s obligations under this
Guarantee with respect to that payment shall be reinstated at such time as though the payment had
not been made. If acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Obligations is stayed upon the
insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower, all such amounts otherwise subject to
acceleration under the terms of any agreement relating to the Obligations shall nonetheless be
payable by the Guarantors forthwith on demand by the Administrative Agent.

     SECTION 10.07. Information. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping
itself informed of each Borrower’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances
bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the
risks that each Guarantor assumes and incurs under this Guarantee, and agrees that none of any
Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Secured Party shall have any duty to advise any Guarantor of
information known to it regarding those circumstances or risks.

     SECTION 10.08. Maximum Liability. The provisions of this Guarantee are severable, and in any
action or proceeding involving any state corporate law, or any state, Federal or foreign
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if
the obligations of any Guarantor under this Guarantee would otherwise be held or determined to be
avoidable, invalid or unenforceable on account of the amount of such Guarantor’s liability under
this Guarantee, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Guarantee to the contrary, the
amount of such liability shall, without any further action by the Guarantors or the Secured
Parties, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable
as determined in such action or proceeding (such highest amount determined hereunder being the
relevant Guarantor’s “Maximum Liability”). This Section with respect to the Maximum Liability of
each Guarantor is intended solely to preserve the rights of the Secured Parties to the maximum
extent not subject to avoidance under applicable law, and no Guarantor nor any other Person or
entity shall have any right or claim under this Section with respect to such Maximum Liability,
except to the extent necessary so that the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder shall not be
rendered voidable under applicable law. Each Guarantor agrees that the Obligations may at any time
and from time to time exceed the Maximum Liability of each Guarantor without impairing this
Guarantee or affecting the rights and remedies of the Secured Parties hereunder; provided that
nothing in this sentence shall be construed to increase any Guarantor’s obligations hereunder
beyond its Maximum Liability.

     SECTION 10.09. Contribution. In the event any Guarantor (a “Paying Guarantor”) shall make any
payment or payments under this Guarantee or shall suffer

152

 

any loss as a result of any realization upon any collateral granted by it to secure its
obligations under this Guarantee, each other Guarantor (each a “Non-Paying Guarantor”) shall
contribute to such Paying Guarantor an amount equal to such Non-Paying Guarantor’s “Guarantor
Percentage” of such payment or payments made, or losses suffered, by such Paying Guarantor. For
purposes of this Article X, each Non-Paying Guarantor’s “Guarantor Percentage” with respect to any
such payment or loss by a Paying Guarantor shall be determined as of the date on which such payment
or loss was made by reference to the ratio of (i) such Non-Paying Guarantor’s Maximum Liability as
of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any
contribution hereunder) or, if such Non-Paying Guarantor’s Maximum Liability has not been
determined, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Non-Paying Guarantor from any
Borrower after the Closing Date (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means) to (ii) the
aggregate Maximum Liability of all Guarantors hereunder (including such Paying Guarantor) as of
such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution
hereunder), or to the extent that a Maximum Liability has not been determined for any Guarantor,
the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Guarantors from any Borrower after the Closing
Date (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means). Nothing in this provision shall affect
any Guarantor’s several liability for the entire amount of the Obligations (up to such Guarantor’s
Maximum Liability). Each of the Guarantors covenants and agrees that its right to receive any
contribution under this Guarantee from a Non-Paying Guarantor shall be subordinate and junior in
right of payment to the payment in full in cash of the Obligations. This provision is for the
benefit of the Agents, the Issuing Banks, the Lenders, the other Secured Parties and the Guarantors
and may be enforced by any one, or more, or all of them in accordance with the terms hereof.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event that the First Lien
Intercreditor Agreement is executed and delivered in accordance with Section 6.01(n), upon the
effectiveness of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, this provision shall be superseded by the
provisions of Section 2.10, 2.11 and 2.12 of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and shall cease
to have effect.

     SECTION 10.10. Subordination. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that all Indebtedness and other
monetary obligations owed by it to Holdings or any Subsidiary shall be fully subordinated to the
indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Obligations.

     SECTION 10.11. Liability Cumulative. The liability of each Loan Party as a Guarantor under
this Article X is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of each Loan Party to
the Agents, the Issuing Banks, the Lenders and the other Secured Parties under this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents to which such Loan Party is a party or in respect of any obligations or
liabilities of the other Loan Parties, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument
or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary.

     SECTION 10.12. Release of Guarantors. Notwithstanding anything in Section 9.08(b) to the
contrary, a Guarantor that is a Subsidiary (other than any Borrower) shall automatically be
released from its obligations hereunder and its Guarantee shall be automatically released upon the
consummation of any transaction

153

 

permitted hereunder as a result of which such Loan Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary. In connection with any such
release, the Agents shall execute and deliver to any such Guarantor, at such Guarantor’s expense,
all documents that such Guarantor shall reasonably request to evidence termination or release. Any
execution and delivery of documents pursuant to the preceding sentence of this Section 10.12 shall
be without recourse to or warranty by the Agents.

154

Schedule 3.09

to the Credit Agreement

Litigation

	1.	 	Parker-Hannifin Corporation vs. Champion Laboratories, Inc. (oil filter case).
	 
	2.	 	United Components, Inc. and/or its wholly-owned subsidiary, Champion Laboratories, Inc.
(“Champion”), were named as two of multiple defendants in multiple complaints with allegations
including conspiracy violations of Section 1 of the Sherman Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1, related to
aftermarket oil, air, fuel and transmission filters. All of these complaints are styled as
putative class actions on behalf of all persons and entities that purchased aftermarket
filters in the U.S. directly from the defendants, or any of their predecessors, parents,
subsidiaries or affiliates, at any time during the period from January 1, 1999 (and for one
complaint “the earliest legal permissible date”) to the present. The complaints seek damages,
including statutory treble damages, an injunction against future violations, disgorgement of
profits, costs and attorney’s fees.
	 
	3.	 	Champion, but not United Components, Inc., was also named as one of multiple defendants in
two class actions filed in Quebec, Canada. In one, the plaintiff seeks joint and several
liability against the five defendants in the amount of $5.0 million in compensatory damages
and $1.0 million in punitive damages. In the other, the plaintiff seeks joint and several
liability against the 14 defendants in the amount of $150 million in general damages and $15
million in punitive damages.
	 
	4.	 	The Office of the Attorney General for the State of Florida filed a complaint against
Champion and eight other defendants in the Northern District of Illinois. The complaint
alleges violations of Section 1 of the Sherman Act and Florida law related to the sale of
aftermarket filters. It seeks damages, including statutory treble damages, penalties, fees,
costs and an injunction.
	 
	5.	 	Champion is a defendant in litigation with Parker-Hannifin Corporation pursuant to which
Parker-Hannifin claims that certain of Champion’s products infringe a Parker-Hannifin patent.
On December 11, 2009, following trial, a jury verdict was reached, finding in favor of
Parker-Hannifin with damages of approximately $6.5 million. Champion continues to vigorously
defend this matter; however, there can be no assurance with respect to the outcome of
litigation.

 

 

Schedule 3.17

to the Credit Agreement

Environmental Matters

	1.	 	In connection with closing a manufacturing facility in Edison, New Jersey (the “New Jersey
Site”) in 1985, Champion Laboratories Inc. discovered the presence of hazardous substances in
the groundwater at the facility. A state agency has ordered Champion Laboratories to continue
with the monitoring and investigation of chlorinated solvent contamination. The New Jersey
Site has been the subject of litigation to determine whether a neighboring facility was
responsible for contamination discovered at the New Jersey Site.
	 
	2.	 	UCI is also responsible for a portion of chlorinated solvent contamination at a previously
owned site in Solano County, California (the “California Site”), where UCI, at the request of
the regional water board, is investigating and analyzing the nature and extent of the
contamination and is conducting some remediation.

W-8BEN (Certificate of Foreign Status of Beneficial Owner), b.) Form W-8ECI (Income Effectively
Connected to a U.S. Trade or Business), or c.) Form W-8EXP (Certificate of Foreign Government or

A U.S. taxpayer identification number is required for any institution submitting Form W-8ECI. It
is also required on Form W-8BEN for certain institutions claiming the benefits of a tax treaty with
the U.S. Please refer to the instructions when completing the form applicable to your institution.
In addition, please be advised that U.S. tax regulations do not permit the acceptance of faxed

If your institution is organized outside the U.S., and is classified for U.S. federal income tax

Flow-Through Entity, or Certain U.S. Branches for United States Tax Withholding) must be completed
by the intermediary together with a withholding statement. Flow-through entities other than
Qualified Intermediaries are required to include tax forms for each of the underlying beneficial
owners.

Please refer to the instructions when completing this form. In addition, please be advised that
U.S. tax regulations do not permit the acceptance of faxed forms. Original tax form(s) must be

     GUARANTOR JOINDER1 (this “Joinder”) dated as of [•], 20[•]
to the Credit Agreement dated as of January 26, 2011 (as amended,
supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit
Agreement”), among UNCLE ACQUISITION 2010 CORP, a Delaware corporation (to
be merged with and into UCI INTERNATIONAL, INC.), UCI INTERNATIONAL, INC.,
a Delaware corporation (as successor by merger to UNCLE ACQUISITION 2010
CORP), UCI HOLDINGS LIMITED, a New Zealand limited liability company, UCI
ACQUISITION HOLDINGS (NO. 1) CORP, a Delaware corporation, UCI ACQUISITION
HOLDINGS (NO. 2) CORP, a Delaware corporation, the Subsidiary Guarantors,
the Lenders and CREDIT SUISSE AG, as administrative agent.

          A. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings
assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement.

          B. The Guarantors have entered into the Credit Agreement in order to induce the Lenders to
make Loans and the Issuing Banks to issue Letters of Credit. Section 5.12 of the Credit Agreement
provides that additional Subsidiaries may become Subsidiary Guarantors under the Credit Agreement
by execution and delivery of an instrument substantially in the form of this Joinder. The
undersigned Borrower or Subsidiary (the “New Guarantor”) is executing this Joinder in accordance
with the requirements of the Credit Agreement to become a Subsidiary Guarantor under the Credit
Agreement in order to induce the Lenders to make additional Loans and the Issuing Banks to issue
additional Letters of Credit and as consideration for Loans previously made and Letters of Credit
previously issued.

          Accordingly, the Administrative Agent and the New Guarantor agree as follows:

          SECTION 1. In accordance with Section 5.12 of the Credit Agreement, the New Guarantor by its
signature below becomes a Subsidiary Guarantor under the Credit Agreement with the same force and
effect as if originally named therein as a Guarantor and the New Guarantor hereby (i) agrees to all
the terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement applicable to it as a Subsidiary Guarantor
thereunder and (ii) represents and warrants that the representations and warranties made by it as a
Subsidiary Guarantor thereunder are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date
hereof, except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier
date. Each reference to a “Subsidiary Guarantor” in the Credit Agreement shall be deemed to

 

			
	1	 	Form to include changes and additions necessary
to comply with applicable foreign law.

 

 

include the New Guarantor. The Credit Agreement is hereby incorporated herein by
reference.2

          SECTION 2. The New Guarantor represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the
other Secured Parties that this Joinder has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by it and
constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its
terms.

          SECTION 3. The New Guarantor is a company duly organized under the law of [name of relevant
jurisdiction]. The guarantee of the New Guarantor giving a guarantee other than in respect of its
subsidiary is subject to the following limitations: [insert any applicable limitation.]

          SECTION 4. The New Guarantor confirms that no Default has occurred or would occur as a result
of the New Guarantor becoming a Subsidiary Guarantor under the Credit Agreement.

          SECTION 5. This Joinder may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on
different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken
together shall constitute a single contract. This Joinder shall become effective when the
Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts of this Joinder that, when taken together,
bear the signatures of the New Guarantor and the Administrative Agent. Delivery of an executed
signature page to this Joinder by facsimile transmission or other electronic transmission (e.g.
“pdf”) shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Joinder.

          SECTION 6. Except as expressly supplemented hereby, the Credit Agreement shall remain in full
force and effect.

          SECTION 7. THIS JOINDER AND ALL CLAIMS AND CONTROVERSIES IN CONNECTION HEREWITH SHALL BE
GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

          SECTION 8. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Joinder should be held
invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the
remaining provisions contained herein and in the Credit Agreement shall not in any way be affected
or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a
particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any
other jurisdiction). The parties hereto shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable

 

			
	2	 	To include New Guarantor’s agreement to be bound
by and become party to the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement (to the extent in
effect at the time) and the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement (to the extent
in effect at the time).

2

 

provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of
the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

          SECTION 9. All communications and notices hereunder shall (except as otherwise expressly
permitted by the Credit Agreement) be in writing and given as provided in Section 9.01 of the
Credit Agreement. All communications and notices hereunder to the New Guarantor shall be given to
it in care of Holdings as provided in Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement.

          SECTION 10. The New Guarantor agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent for its reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses in connection with this Joinder, including the fees, other charges and
disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent.

          IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the New Guarantor and the Administrative Agent have duly executed this
Joinder to the Credit Agreement as of the day and year first above written.

EXHIBIT E

Agreed Security Principles

	(A)	 	Considerations

	1.	 	The security that will be provided in support of the Obligations (as defined in the
Credit Agreement or, following the incurrence of any Additional Senior Secured Indebtedness,
the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement) will be given in accordance with certain security
principles (the “Security Principles”) set forth below.
	 
	2.	 	The Security Principles embody recognition by all parties that there may be certain legal
and practical difficulties in obtaining effective security from the Loan Parties. However, it
is acknowledged that to the extent the Security Principles conflict with the specific
provisions of any Loan Document (other than those explicitly qualified by these Security
Principles), the provisions of such Loan Document will prevail. For purposes of the Security
Principles, “Loan Documents” shall mean, (i) (x) prior to the effectiveness of the First Lien
Intercreditor Agreement, the “Loan Documents” as defined in the Credit Agreement and (y) upon
the effectiveness of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the “Secured Credit Documents” as
defined therein and (ii) any other document designated by the Loan Parties’ Agent and the
Applicable Authorized Representative (as defined below) as a Loan Document.
	 
	3.	 	For purposes of the Security Principles, “value” refers to fair market value, provided
that if no fair market value is readily ascertainable, value shall refer to book value
determined in accordance with GAAP (as defined in the Credit Agreement) (consistently
applied), as of the date of the most recently ended fiscal quarter for which financial
statements are available.
	 
	4.	 	For the purposes of the covenants set forth in the Loan Documents, the Applicable
Authorized Representative shall make all determinations on behalf of the Secured Parties with
respect to these Security Principles. For purposes of the Security Principles, the
“Applicable Authorized Representative” shall refer to (i) prior to the effectiveness of the
First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the Administrative Agent and (ii) upon the effectiveness
of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the “Applicable Authorized Representative” as
defined therein.

The Security Principles are as follows:

	 	(a)	 	general statutory limitations, financial assistance, capital maintenance,
corporate benefit, fraudulent preference, “thin capitalization” rules, retention of
title claims, exchange control restrictions and similar principles may limit the ability
of a Loan Party to provide a guarantee or security or may require that the guarantee or
security be limited by an amount or otherwise; the Loan Parties will use reasonable
endeavours to provide the maximum permissible credit support and to assist in
demonstrating that adequate corporate benefit accrues to any relevant Loan Party;
	 
	 	(b)	 	the list of entities required to provide guarantees and the security and
extent of its perfection may be limited where the Applicable Authorized Representative
reasonably determines in consultation with the Loan Parties that the cost to the Loan
Parties (including for the avoidance of doubt, any material tax costs to the Loan
Parties taken as a whole) of providing guarantees and security is excessive in relation
to the benefit accruing to the Secured Parties;

 

 

	 	(c)	 	any assets subject to third party arrangements which are permitted by the
Loan Documents and which prevent those assets from being subject to a Lien will not be
subject to a Lien in any relevant Security Document, provided that reasonable endeavours
to obtain consent to such Lien shall be used by the relevant Loan Party if the relevant
asset is material and if seeking such consent will not adversely affect the business of
the Loan Parties or their commercial relationships;
	 
	 	(d)	 	guarantees and security will not be required from companies that are not
wholly owned (such term, as used throughout these Security Principles, to exclude
directors’ qualifying shares and similar insignificant minority ownership interests) by
any Loan Party. Where security is provided by a wholly owned subsidiary of any Loan
Party (whether direct or indirect) and such subsidiary subsequently ceases to be wholly
owned but remains a subsidiary, there shall be no requirement for the release of such
guarantee or security;
	 
	 	(e)	 	Holdings and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Group”) will not be
required to grant guarantees or enter into Security Documents if it would conflict with
the fiduciary duties of their directors or contravene any legal prohibition or result in
a risk of personal or criminal liability on the part of any officer, provided that the
relevant member of the Group shall use reasonable endeavours to overcome any such
obstacle and provided further that the above limitation shall be assessed in respect of
the obligations of such member of the Group under the Loan Documents generally and not
just the guarantee or security being granted by that member of the Group;
	 
	 	(f)	 	Subsidiaries will not be required to grant guarantees or enter into Security
Documents where there would be a significant tax disadvantage in doing so. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Subsidiary shall be required to give a
guarantee or a pledge of its assets if such Subsidiary is a “controlled foreign
corporation” for U.S. federal income tax purposes or a Foreign Subsidiary Holding
Company and in no event shall more than 65% of the total outstanding voting equity
interests of such Subsidiary be required to be pledged;
	 
	 	(g)	 	perfection of security, when required, and other legal formalities will be
completed as soon as practicable and, in any event, within the time periods specified in
the Loan Documents therefor or (if earlier or to the extent no such time periods are
specified in the Loan Documents) within the time periods specified by applicable law in
order to ensure due perfection. The perfection of security granted will not be required
if it would have a material adverse effect on the ability of the relevant Loan Party to
conduct its operations and business in the ordinary course as otherwise permitted by the
Loan Documents;
	 
	 	(h)	 	the Collateral Agent (acting in its own right or on behalf of the relevant
Secured Parties) shall be able to enforce the security granted by the Security Documents
without any restriction from (i) the constitutional documents of any Loan Party, to the
extent that such restrictions can be removed under relevant law, (ii) any Loan Party
which is or whose assets are the subject of such Security Document (but subject to any
inalienable statutory or common law rights which the Loan Parties may have to challenge
such enforcement) or (iii) any shareholders of the foregoing not party to the relevant
Security Document, to the extent that it is within the power of the Loan Parties to
ensure that such restrictions do not apply;

6

 

	 	(i)	 	the maximum secured amount may be limited to minimize stamp duty,
notarisation, registration or other applicable fees, taxes and duties;
	 
	 	(j)	 	where a class of assets to be secured by a Loan Party includes material and
immaterial assets, the Loan Party and the Applicable Authorized Representative may agree
a threshold in respect of such assets and direct the Collateral Agent to act
accordingly;
	 
	 	(k)	 	the only owned real property owned by Holdings and its Subsidiaries required
to be pledged at Closing or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter will be the
real property set forth in Schedule 1.01(b) to the Credit Agreement. After the Closing,
neither Holdings nor any of its Subsidiaries will be required to pledge any real
property owned by Holdings or such Subsidiaries unless the value of such real property
exceeds $5.0 million. Neither Holdings nor any of its Subsidiaries will be required to
pledge any property in which it has a leasehold interest;
	 
	 	(l)	 	unless granted under a global Security Document governed by the law of the
jurisdiction of a Loan Party or New York law, all security (other than share security
over subsidiaries of a Loan Party) shall be governed by the law of and secure assets
located in the jurisdiction of incorporation of that Loan Party, provided that for
certain receivables security, such security may be governed by the law of the
jurisdiction of incorporation or domicile of the creditor or the law that governs the
underlying receivable;
	 
	 	(m)	 	other than where intellectual property is secured by a floating charge or
other similar all-asset security interest, security interests need only be granted for
intellectual property with a value greater than $1.0 million. Security interests in
intellectual property will be registered solely in the jurisdiction of incorporation of
the Loan Party that owns such intellectual property, provided that, with respect to
intellectual property that is material to the Loan Party, to the extent the registration
of a security interest in or the taking of any other commercially reasonable actions
with respect to, such intellectual property in any other jurisdiction is necessary to
ensure that the Secured Parties would be able to realize upon the value of the secured
intellectual property in the event of enforcement action, such registration or other
actions will be taken in such other jurisdiction as the Collateral Agent may reasonably
request taking into account the cost to the Loan Parties of such registration in
relation to the benefit accruing to the Secured Parties;
	 
	 	(n)	 	security interests will be taken over only those insurance policies of the
Loan Parties that are material to the Group as a whole, as reasonably determined by the
Applicable Authorized Representative;
	 
	 	(o)	 	other than where equipment is secured by a floating charge or other similar
all-asset security interest, security interests need only be granted for manufacturing
equipment with a value greater than $250,000;
	 
	 	(p)	 	security interests will be provided over the equity of any subsidiary that is
not a Loan Party only if (i) (A) as of the last day of the fiscal quarter of Holdings
most recently ended for which financial statements are available, it had gross assets
(excluding intra group items but including investments in Subsidiaries) in excess of
1.0% of Consolidated Total Assets and (B) for the period of four consecutive fiscal
quarters of Holdings most recently ended for which financial statements are available,
it had earnings before interest, tax,

7

 

	 	 	 	depreciation and amortization calculated on the same basis as Consolidated EBITDA
in excess of 1.0% of the Consolidated EBITDA and (ii) such subsidiary is not a
“controlled foreign corporation” for U.S. federal income tax purposes; and

	 	(q)	 	no security interest will be provided over the equity of any subsidiary that
(a) does not conduct any business operations, (b) has assets with a book value not in
excess of $100,000 and (c) does not have any indebtedness outstanding.

	 	 	For the avoidance of doubt, in these Security Principles, “cost” includes, but is not
limited to, income tax cost, registration taxes payable on the creation or for the
continuance of any security, stamp duties, out-of-pocket expenses and other fees and
expenses directly incurred by the relevant grantor of security or any of its direct or
indirect owners, subsidiaries or Affiliates.

	(B)	 	Obligations to be Secured

	5.	 	Subject to (A) (Considerations) and to paragraph 2 below, the obligations to be secured
are the Obligations.

	(C)	 	General
	 
	 	 	Where appropriate, defined terms in the Security Documents should mirror those in the U.S.
Collateral Agreement or the Credit Agreement, as applicable, or, following the incurrence of
any Additional Senior Secured Indebtedness, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement.

	(D)	 	Guarantors and Security
	 
	 	 	Each guarantee will be an upstream, cross-stream and downstream guarantee of all the
Obligations, subject to the requirements of the Security Principles in each relevant
jurisdiction. Subject to the Security Principles, the security will secure all of the
Obligations.
	 
	 	 	Subject to these Security Principles, the security package shall include stock and other
membership interests issued by a Loan Party and intercompany and trade receivables, bank
accounts (and amounts on deposit therein), intellectual property, insurance, real estate,
inventory and equipment, in each case owned by a Loan Party, and, in jurisdictions where an
“all asset” security interest can be created in a security document, security over all
assets shall, subject to the Loan Documents, be given by the Loan Parties formed in that
jurisdiction.
	 
	 	 	To the extent possible, all security shall be given in favour of the Collateral Agent and
not the Secured Parties individually. “Parallel debt” provisions will be used where
necessary; such provisions will be contained in the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and
not the individual Security Documents unless required under local laws. To the extent
possible, the grant of security in the collateral shall be structured, documented or
otherwise implemented in a manner so that there should be no action required to be taken in
relation to the security when any Secured Party transfers an interest in the Loan Documents
to another party. To the extent such action is required, the Applicable Authorized
Representative shall not require the Collateral Agent to obtain security in such asset
giving rise to the requirement for such action upon a transfer of an interest in the Loan
Documents to another party.
	 
	 	 	The Loan Parties will be required to pay the reasonable costs of any re-execution,
notarisation, re-registration, amendment or other perfection requirement for any security on
any transfer by a

8

 

	 	 	Secured Party to a new Secured Party on or prior to the date on which the Administrative
Agent notifies Holdings that primary syndication is complete. Otherwise the cost or fee
shall be for the account of the transferee Secured Party.

	2.	 	Terms of Security Documents

The following principles will be reflected in the terms of any security taken as part of this
transaction:

	 	(a)	 	the security will be first ranking, to the extent possible;
	 
	 	(b)	 	security will (to the extent possible under local law) not be enforceable
unless an Event of Default (as defined in the Credit Agreement or, following the
incurrence of any Additional Senior Secured Indebtedness, the First Lien Intercreditor
Agreement) has occurred that is continuing;
	 
	 	(c)	 	any representations, warranties or undertakings which are required to be
included in any Security Document shall reflect (to the extent to which the subject
matter of such representation, warranty and undertaking is the same as the corresponding
representation, warranty and undertaking in the applicable Loan Documents) the
commercial deal set out in the Loan Documents (save to the extent that the applicable
local counsel agree that it is necessary to include any further provisions (or deviate
from those contained in the Loan Documents) in order to protect or preserve the security
granted to the Secured Parties);
	 
	 	(d)	 	the provisions of each security document will not be unduly burdensome on the
relevant Loan Party granting such security or interfere unreasonably with the operation
of its business and will be limited to those required to create effective security and
not impose unreasonable commercial obligations;
	 
	 	(e)	 	information, such as lists of assets, will be provided if and only to the
extent (i) required by law to create, enforce, perfect or register the security or (ii)
necessary or advisable to enforce the security, provided that such information need not
be provided by the Loan Parties pursuant to this subclause (ii) more frequently than
annually unless an Event of Default has occurred (or, in the case of third party trade
debtors, unless a Default has occurred which is continuing), and in each case that
information can be provided without breaching confidentiality requirements or damaging
business relationships;
	 
	 	(f)	 	the Collateral Agent and Secured Parties shall be able to exercise a power of
attorney only following the occurrence of an Event of Default or if the relevant Loan
Party granting such security has failed to comply with a further assurance or perfection
obligation within 10 Business Days of being notified of that failure;
	 
	 	(g)	 	security will, where possible and practical, automatically create security
over future assets of the same type as those already secured;
	 
	 	(h)	 	notification of receivables security to third-party trade debtors shall not
be given unless a Default has occurred and is continuing and for intercompany
receivables notification may be given at the time such security is granted to the extent
required by local law to perfect such security or if a Default has occurred and is
continuing;

9

 

	 	(i)	 	in respect of the share pledges, until an Event of Default has occurred, the
pledgors shall be permitted to retain and to exercise voting rights to any shares
pledged by them in a manner which does not adversely affect the validity or
enforceability of the security or cause an Event of Default to occur and the
subsidiaries of the pledgors should be permitted to pay dividends upstream on pledged
shares to the extent permitted under the Loan Documents;
	 
	 	(j)	 	in respect of bank accounts (and cash therein), the Collateral Agent agrees
with the relevant Loan Party that the Collateral Agent shall not give any instructions
or withhold any withdrawal rights from such Loan Party, unless an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, or, after giving effect to any withdrawal, would occur;\
	 
	 	(k)	 	the Security Documents shall not operate so as to prevent transactions that
are permitted under the Loan Documents or to require additional consents or
authorizations; and
	 
	 	(l)	 	each Security Document shall contain a release clause requiring the
Collateral Agent to release the security constituted thereby as follows:

	 	(i)	 	Upon (x) the secured obligations being discharged in full
and none of the Secured Parties being under any further actual or contingent
obligation to make advances or provide other financial accommodation to the
security providers or any other person under any of the Loan Documents or (y)
the security provider ceasing to be either a Borrower or a Guarantor (as the
case may be), then the Collateral Agent shall, at the request and cost of the
Loan Parties, release and cancel the security of such security provider and
procure the reassignment to the security provider of the property and assets

EXHIBIT I

     AFFILIATE SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT dated as of [•], 20[•] (this
“Agreement”), among UCI HOLDINGS LIMITED, a New Zealand limited
liability company (“Holdings”), the subordinated lenders listed on
Schedule I hereto and any additional person that becomes a party hereto as
a subordinated lender after the date hereof (each, a “Subordinated
Lender” and collectively, the “Subordinated Lenders”), the
guarantors listed on Schedule II hereto and any additional person that
becomes a party hereto as a guarantor after the date hereof (each, a
“Guarantor” and collectively, the “Guarantors”) and CREDIT
SUISSE AG, as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”)
under the Credit Agreement (as defined below).

          Reference is made to the Credit Agreement dated as of January 26, 2011 (as amended,
supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among UNCLE
ACQUISITION 2010 CORP, a Delaware corporation (to be merged with and into UCI INTERNATIONAL, INC.),
UCI INTERNATIONAL, INC., a Delaware Corporation (as successor by merger to UNCLE ACQUISITION 2010
CORP), Holdings, UCI ACQUISITION HOLDINGS (NO. 1) CORP, a Delaware corporation, UCI ACQUISITION
HOLDINGS (NO. 2) CORP, a Delaware corporation, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the lenders from time to
time party thereto (the “Lenders”) and the Administrative Agent. Capitalized terms used
herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the
Credit Agreement.

          Except as otherwise set forth therein, the ability under Section 6.01(c) of the Credit
Agreement of any Loan Party to incur Indebtedness to any Subsidiary that is not a Loan Party is
conditioned upon the execution and delivery by such Subsidiary that is not a Loan Party and such
Loan Party of an agreement in the form hereof pursuant to which such Subsidiary that is not a Loan
Party agrees to subordinate its rights with respect to the Subordinated Obligations (as defined
below) to the rights of the Secured Parties under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, all on the terms set forth herein.

          Accordingly, each Subordinated Lender, each Guarantor and the Administrative Agent, on behalf
of itself and each Secured Party (and each of their respective successors or permitted assigns),
hereby agrees as follows:

          Subordination. (m)Each Subordinated Lender hereby agrees that all its right,
title and interest in and to the Subordinated Obligations (as defined herein) of each
Guarantor shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the rights of the Secured
Parties in respect of the Obligations of such Guarantor, including all payment obligations in
respect of such Guarantor’s Obligations as primary obligor or guarantor of the payment of
principal, premium (if any), interest (including interest accruing on or after the filing of
any petition in bankruptcy or for reorganization relating to Holdings, any Borrower or any

 

Subsidiary whether or not a claim for post-filing interest is allowed or allowable in any
such proceeding), fees, charges, expenses, indemnities, reimbursement obligations, Guarantees
and all other amounts payable thereunder or in respect thereof (collectively, the “Senior
Obligations”); provided that, subject to Section 1(b), no Guarantor shall be
prohibited from making payments in respect of such Indebtedness (whether on account of
principal, premium (if any), interest, fees, charges, expenses, indemnities, reimbursement
obligations or otherwise) or be otherwise limited in any manner with respect to such
Indebtedness by the terms of this Agreement. For purposes hereof, “Subordinated
Obligations” means all obligations of each Guarantor to each Subordinated Lender in
respect of Indebtedness, including in respect of principal, premium (if any), interest
(including interest accruing on or after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy or for
reorganization relating to Holdings, any Borrower or any Subsidiary whether or not a claim for
post-filing interest is allowed or allowable in any such proceeding), fees, charges, expenses,
indemnities, reimbursement obligations and other amounts payable in respect thereof, that are
required to be subordinated to the Obligations under Section 6.01(c) of the Credit Agreement.

          Each Guarantor and, solely with respect to the Subordinated Obligation in respect of which it
is the obligee, each Subordinated Lender agrees that no payment (whether directly, by purchase,
redemption or exercise of any right of setoff or otherwise) in respect of the Subordinated
Obligations, whether as principal, interest or otherwise, and whether in cash, securities or other
property, shall be made by or on behalf of any Guarantor or received, accepted or demanded,
directly or indirectly, by or on behalf of any Subordinated Lender when an Event of Default exists
and Holdings has received a written notice from the Required Lenders (or from the Administrative
Agent at the request of the Required Lenders) prohibiting any further payment in respect of the
Subordinated Obligations, so long as any such Event of Default has occurred and is continuing
(provided that such notice shall not be required to be given (and no such payment may be made) if
the Event of Default is of the type set forth in paragraph (a), (b), (h) or (i) of Article VII of
the Credit Agreement).

          Upon any distribution of the assets of any Guarantor or upon any dissolution, winding up,
liquidation or reorganization of any Guarantor, in each case in bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, arrangement or receivership proceedings, or upon any assignment for the benefit of
creditors or any other marshalling of the assets and liabilities of any Guarantor:

     the Secured Parties shall first be entitled to indefeasibly receive payment in full in
cash of the Obligations (whenever arising) before any Subordinated Lender shall be entitled
to receive any payment on account of the Subordinated Obligations of such Guarantor,
whether of principal, interest or otherwise; and

     any payment by, or on behalf of, or distribution of the assets of, such Guarantor of
any kind or character, whether in cash, securities or other property, to which any
Subordinated Lender would be entitled to receive as payment on account of the Subordinated
Obligations of such Guarantor except for the

2

 

provisions of this Section 1(c) shall be paid or delivered by the person making such
payment or distribution (whether a trustee in bankruptcy, a receiver, custodian or
liquidating trustee or otherwise) directly to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of
the Secured Parties, until the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all Obligations to
be credited and applied to the Obligations as set forth in the Credit Agreement and the
other Loan Documents.

          In the event that any payment by, or on behalf of, or distribution of the assets of, any
Guarantor of any kind or character, whether in cash, securities or other property, and whether
directly, by purchase, redemption, exercise of any right of setoff or otherwise in respect of the
Subordinated Obligations, shall be received by or on behalf of any Subordinated Lender at a time
when such payment or distribution is prohibited by this Agreement, such payment or distribution
shall be held by such Subordinated Lender (segregated from other property of such Subordinated
Lender) for the benefit of, and shall forthwith be paid over to, the Administrative Agent, for the
benefit of the Secured Parties, until the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all Obligations.

          Subject to the prior indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Obligations, each applicable
Subordinated Lender shall be subrogated to the rights of the Secured Parties to receive payments or
distributions in cash, securities or other property of each applicable Guarantor applicable to the
Obligations until all amounts owing on the Obligations shall be indefeasibly paid in full in cash,
and, as between and among a Guarantor, its creditors (other than the Secured Parties) and the
applicable Subordinated Lenders, no such payment or distribution made to the Secured Parties by
virtue of this Agreement that otherwise would have been made to any applicable Subordinated Lender
shall be deemed to be a payment by the applicable Guarantor on account of the Subordinated
Obligations, it being understood that the provisions of this paragraph (e) are intended solely for
the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Subordinated Lenders and the Secured Parties.

          Waivers and Consents. (n)Each Subordinated Lender, solely in its capacity as a
Subordinated Lender, waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the right to
compel that the Collateral or any other assets or property of any Guarantor or the assets or
property of any guarantor of the Obligations or any other Person be applied in any particular
order to discharge the Obligations. Each Subordinated Lender, solely in its capacity as a
Subordinated Lender, expressly waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the
right to require the Secured Parties to proceed against any Guarantor, the Collateral or any
guarantor of the Obligations or any other Person, or to pursue any other remedy in any Secured
Party’s power which such Subordinated Lender cannot pursue, notwithstanding that the failure
of any Secured Party to do so may thereby prejudice such Subordinated Lender.

          Each Subordinated Lender waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, all rights
and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by the Secured Parties, even though that
election of remedies, including any nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for the
Obligations, has impaired the value of such

3

 

Subordinated Lender’s rights of subrogation, reimbursement, or contribution against any
Guarantor or any other guarantor of the Obligations or any other Person. Each Subordinated Lender
expressly waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any rights or defenses it may
have by reason of protection afforded to any Guarantor or any other guarantor of the Obligations or
any other Person with respect to the Obligations pursuant to any anti-deficiency laws or other laws
of similar import which limit or discharge the principal debtor’s indebtedness upon judicial or
nonjudicial foreclosure of real property or personal property Collateral for the Obligations.

          Each Subordinated Lender agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, that,
without the necessity of any reservation of rights against it, and without notice to or further
assent by it, any demand for payment of any Obligations made by a Secured Party may be rescinded in
whole or in part by the Secured Party, and any Senior Obligation may be continued, and the
Obligations, or the liability of the applicable Guarantor or any other guarantor or any other party
upon or for any part thereof, or any Collateral or guarantee under any Loan Document therefor or
right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed,
extended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Secured
Parties, in each case without notice to or further assent by any Subordinated Lender, which will
remain bound under this Agreement and without impairing, abridging, releasing or affecting the
subordination and other agreements provided for herein.

          Each Subordinated Lender waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and
all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Obligations. The
Obligations, and any of them, shall be deemed conclusively to have been created, contracted or
incurred, and the consent of the Secured Parties to the creation of the obligations of each
Guarantor in respect of the Subordinated Obligations shall be deemed conclusively to have been
given, in each case in reliance upon this Agreement, and all dealings between each Guarantor and
the Secured Parties shall be deemed to have been consummated in reliance upon this Agreement. Each
Subordinated Lender acknowledges and agrees that the Secured Parties have relied upon the
subordination and other agreements provided for herein in consenting to the Subordinated
Obligations. Each Subordinated Lender waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law,
notice of or proof of reliance on this Agreement and protest, demand for payment and notice of
default.

          Representations and Warranties. Each Subordinated Lender represents and warrants
to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties that:

     it has the corporate or other organizational power and authority to execute and
deliver and to perform its obligations under this Agreement and has taken all necessary
corporate or other organizational action to authorize its execution, delivery and
performance of this Agreement; and

     this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such Subordinated Lender and
constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such

4

 

Subordinated Lender, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as
enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general
principles of equity (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law);

     the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement will not violate in any
material respect any provision of any requirement of any law applicable to such
Subordinated Lender or of any contractual obligation of such Subordinated Lender; and

     no consent or authorization of, filing with, or other act by or in respect of any
arbitrator or regulatory body or Governmental Authority and no consent of any Person, is
required in connection with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or
enforceability of this Agreement, except such as have been obtained or made and are in full
force and effect or where the failure to obtain could no reasonably be expected to have a
material adverse effect.

          Further Assurances. Each Subordinated Lender and each applicable Loan Party that
incurs Indebtedness as a Subordinated Lender, at their own expense and at any time from time
to time, upon the written request of the Administrative Agent, will promptly and duly execute
and deliver such further instruments and documents and take such further actions as the
Administrative Agent reasonably may request for the purposes of obtaining or preserving the
full benefits of this Agreement and of the rights and powers herein granted.

          Provisions Define Relative Rights. This Agreement is intended solely for the
purpose of defining the relative rights of the Secured Parties on the one hand and the
Subordinated Lenders and the Guarantors on the other, and no other Person (other than the
Collateral Agent) shall have any right, benefit or other interest under this Agreement.

          Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon any party hereto shall be
in writing and shall be given in the manner provided in Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement,
provided that any such notice, request or demand to or upon any Guarantor or
Subordinated Lender that is not a party to the Credit Agreement shall be addressed to the
notice address of Holdings provided in Section 9.01(a) thereof.

          Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which
shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single
instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or other
electronic transmission (e.g. “pdf”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed
counterpart of this Agreement.

          Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this
Agreement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in

5

 

any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions
contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being
understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall
not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction).

          Integration. This Agreement is a “Loan Document” and a “Security Document” and
represents the agreement of the Guarantors, the Secured Parties and the Subordinated Lenders
with respect to the subject matter hereof and there are no promises or representations by any
Guarantor, the Secured Parties or any Subordinated Lender relative to the subject matter
hereof not reflected herein.

          Amendments in Writing; No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. (o)None of the
terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise
modified except by a written instrument executed by the Administrative Agent, each affected
Guarantor and each affected Subordinated Lender; provided that any provision of this
Agreement may be waived by the Secured Parties in a letter or agreement executed by the
Administrative Agent and each affected Subordinated Lender.

          No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Parties, in
exercising any power, right or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege or any abandonment or
discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

          The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or
concurrently and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.

          Section Headings. The section headings used in this Agreement are for
convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction hereof or be taken into

          Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and
assigns of each of the Guarantors and each of the Subordinated Lenders and shall inure to the
benefit of the Secured Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

          Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (p)This Agreement
and all claims and controversies in connection herewith shall be construed in accordance with
and governed by the law of the State of New York.

          Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property,
to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the

6

 

Southern
District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising

the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any
such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent
permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto 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 in this Agreement shall
affect any right that the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party may otherwise have to bring any
action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against any Subordinated Lender or its properties
in the courts of any jurisdiction.

          Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may
legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of
venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court
referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably
waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the
maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

          Each Subordinated Lender hereby irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner
provided for notices in Section 6. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to
this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

          WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT
PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY
LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT
(WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT
NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR
OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE
FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED
TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN

Lender] [Guarantor]. The Affiliate Subordination Agreement is hereby incorporated herein by
reference.

     SECTION 2. This Supplement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an

have received counterparts of this
Supplement that, when taken together, bear the signatures of the New [Subordinated Lender]
[Guarantor] and the Administrative Agent. Delivery of an executed signature page to this

shall remain in full force and effect.

     SECTION 4. THIS SUPPLEMENT AND ALL CLAIMS AND CONTROVERSIES IN CONNECTION HEREWITH SHALL BE

the remaining provisions contained herein and in the Affiliate Subordination Agreement shall not in

in Section 6 of the Affiliate Subordination Agreement. All communications and notices hereunder to
the New [Subordinated Lender] [Guarantor] shall be given to it at the address set forth under its

SOLVENCY CERTIFICATE

CERTIFICATE OF UCI HOLDINGS LIMITED

     THIS SOLVENCY CERTIFICATE (this “Certificate”) is delivered in connection with, and
pursuant to Section 4.02(p) of, that certain Credit Agreement dated as of January 26, 2011 (the
“Credit Agreement”) by and among UNCLE ACQUISITION 2010 CORP, a Delaware corporation (to be
merged with and into UCI INTERNATIONAL, INC.), UCI INTERNATIONAL, INC., a Delaware Corporation (as
successor by merger to UNCLE ACQUISITION 2010 CORP), UCI HOLDINGS LIMITED, a New Zealand limited
liability company, UCI ACQUISITION HOLDINGS (NO. 1) CORP, a Delaware corporation, UCI ACQUISITION
HOLDINGS (NO. 2) CORP, a Delaware corporation, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the financial
institutions from time to time party thereto as lenders (the “Lenders”), and Credit Suisse
AG, as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”). Capitalized terms used herein
without definition have the same meanings as in the Credit Agreement.

     The undersigned hereby certifies in his capacity as a Financial Officer of Holdings, as
follows:

     1. The undersigned, [•], is the duly qualified and acting Financial Officer of Holdings and in
such capacity is the senior financial officer of Holdings and has the responsibility for the
management of Holdings’s financial affairs. The undersigned is familiar with Holdings’s and its
subsidiaries’ financial and accounting matters and the terms and conditions of the financings
proposed to be arranged pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the Transactions proposed to be
consummated on the Closing Date.

     2. The undersigned has carefully reviewed the contents of this Certificate and all other
information and documentation that the undersigned has determined is reasonably necessary to make
the statements contained in this Certificate. The statements made herein are made in good faith
and are based upon the personal knowledge of the undersigned, or upon reports and other information
given to the undersigned by supervisory personnel of Holdings and its subsidiaries having
responsibility for the reports and the information given, and who, in the opinion of the
undersigned, are reliable and entitled to be relied upon.

 

 

     Based upon the foregoing, the undersigned has reached the following conclusions:

     As of the date hereof, and, after giving effect to the Transactions and after giving effect to
the application of the proceeds of all indebtedness incurred on the Closing Date, Holdings and its
subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, are “solvent”. The undersigned understands that, in this
context, “solvent” means that: (a) the fair value of the assets of Holdings and its subsidiaries
(on a consolidated basis) is in excess of their debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or
otherwise (on a consolidated basis), (b) the present fair saleable value of the assets of Holdings
and its subsidiaries (on a consolidated basis) will be greater than the amount that will be
required to pay the probable liability of their debts and other liabilities, subordinated,
contingent or otherwise (on a consolidated basis), as such debts and other liabilities become
absolute and matured, (c) Holdings and its subsidiaries (on a consolidated basis) will be able to
pay their debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise (on a consolidated basis),
as such debts and liabilities become absolute and matured, and (d) Holdings and its subsidiaries
(on a consolidated basis) will not have unreasonably small capital with which to conduct the
businesses in which they are engaged as such businesses are now conducted and proposed to be
conducted following the Closing Date. For the purposes of this paragraph, “not have unreasonably
small capital with which to conduct the businesses in which they are engaged as such businesses are
now conducted and proposed to be conducted following the Closing Date” and “able to pay their debts
and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise (on a consolidated basis), as such debts and
liabilities become absolute and matured” mean that Holdings and its subsidiaries, on a consolidated
basis, will be able to generate enough cash from operations, asset dispositions, refinancing, or a
combination thereof, to meet their obligations (including all “contingent and other liabilities”)
as they become due.

     The undersigned understands that the Lenders and the Administrative Agent are relying upon the
foregoing statements in this Certificate in connection with the consummation of the Transactions.

the representations and warranties made by them as Subsidiary Guarantors thereunder are
true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date hereof, except to the
extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date. Each
reference to a “Subsidiary Guarantor” in the Credit Agreement shall be deemed to include
each New Guarantor. The Credit Agreement is hereby incorporated herein by reference.

 

 

     SECTION 2. Each New Guarantor represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and
the other Secured Parties that this Joinder has been duly authorized, executed and
delivered by such New Guarantor and constitutes such New Guarantor’s legal, valid and
binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.

     SECTION 3. Each New Guarantor is a company duly organized under the law of the
applicable jurisdiction set forth next to such New Guarantor’s name on Schedule 1.

     SECTION 4. Each New Guarantor confirms that no Default has occurred or would occur as
a result of such New Guarantor becoming a Subsidiary Guarantor under the Credit Agreement.

     SECTION 5. This Joinder may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties
hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of
which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Joinder shall become
effective when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts of this Joinder
that, when taken together, bear the signatures of the New Guarantors and the Administrative
Agent. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Joinder by facsimile transmission or
other electronic transmission (e.g. “pdf”) shall be as effective as delivery of a manually
signed counterpart of this Joinder.

     SECTION 6. Except as expressly supplemented hereby, the Credit Agreement shall remain
in full force and effect.

     SECTION 7. THIS JOINDER AND ALL CLAIMS AND CONTROVERSIES IN CONNECTION HEREWITH SHALL
BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

     SECTION 8. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Joinder should
be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and
enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and in the Credit Agreement
shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the
invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of
itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties hereto
shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable
provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to
that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

     SECTION 9. All communications and notices hereunder shall (except as otherwise
expressly permitted by the Credit Agreement) be in writing and given as provided in Section
9.01 of the Credit Agreement. All communications and notices hereunder to the New
Guarantors shall be given to the New Guarantors in care of Holdings as provided in Section
9.01 of the Credit Agreement.

     SECTION 10. Each New Guarantor agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent for its
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection with this Joinder, including the fees,
other charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent.
