      period. Following any such termination described in this Section 3(c)(i) or
      termination due to the Employee’s Disability or death, equity incentives granted

      applicable plan, subject to the Employee’s execution, delivery and
      non-revocation of a release in accordance with Section 10(e), to the fullest
      extent permitted by law in favor of the Employer’s Group (and its affiliates) in
      substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit “A”, as may be modified to
      take into account changes in applicable law and any other changes as
      are
      legally necessary at the time of execution to make it enforceable (the
“Release”),
      the
      Employee will be entitled to the following:
       

      (1) Payment
        of an amount equal to the sum of his Base Salary (as in effect on the
        Termination Date), plus an amount equal to one times his average annual bonus
        (taking into account all annual bonuses paid under Section 3(b) hereof for
        the
        applicable year) over the three fiscal years immediately preceding his
        termination of employment, determined by annualizing the bonus actually paid
        with respect to any partial year. For purposes of clarity, if there have
        been
        fewer than three fiscal years immediately preceding any such termination,
        the
        average of such annual bonuses will be calculated using as a denominator
        the
        actual number of fiscal years in which she has worked for the Employer. This
        amount shall be subject to tax and other required withholdings and, subject
        to
        any delays required pursuant to Sections 10(d) and 10(e), will be payable
        in
        equal periodic 

    

    
      
        
        

      

      
        10

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    installments
      over a period of twelve (12) months from the Termination
      Date paid in accordance with the Employer’s normal payroll policies as if the
      Employee continued to be an employee of the Employer (but off
      payroll).

     

    (2) In
      addition, if the Employee or his dependents are otherwise eligible for COBRA
      continuation of group health plan coverage and the Employee (or his dependents)
      timely elect such coverage, then for a period of twelve (12) months following
      the Termination Date, subject to any delays required pursuant to Sections 10(d)
      and 10(e), the Employer shall pay to the Employee on the first Employer payroll
      date in each month following the Termination Date an amount equal to 100% of
      the
      monthly premium for such COBRA coverage for the applicable month. The foregoing
      payments shall each be a bonus to the Employee subject to tax and other required
      withholdings and shall be grossed up to reflect all applicable taxes at the
      Employee’s maximum marginal rates.

     

    Notwithstanding
      the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to require the
      Employee to seek other employment following the termination of his employment
      hereunder and there shall be no offset against any amounts due the Employee
      under this Agreement on account of any remuneration attributable to any
      subsequent employment that Employee may obtain. 

     

    (c) For
      the
      purposes of this Agreement “Good Reason” shall mean the occurrence of any of the
      following events without the Employee’s consent:

     

    (1) The
      assignment to the Employee of duties that constitute a material diminution
      of
      his authority, duties, or responsibilities (including reporting
      requirements);

    
      
        
        

      

      
        11

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    (2) A
      material diminution in the Employee’s Base Salary; 

     

    (3) Relocation
      of the Employee to a location outside a radius of 50 miles of the Employer’s
      Iselin, New Jersey office; or

     

    (4) Any
      other
      action or inaction by the Employer that constitutes a material breach of this
      Agreement

     

    provided
      that
      within
      ninety (90) days after the initial existence of such event,
      the
      Employer shall be given notice and an opportunity, not less than thirty (30)
      days, to effectuate a cure for such asserted “Good Reason” by the Employee.
      Employee’s resignation hereunder for Good Reason shall not occur later than one
      hundred fifty (150) days following the initial date on which the event Employee
      claim constitutes Good Reason occurred.

    (d) A
      termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes
      of
      any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or
      benefits upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination
      is also a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the
      Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)
      and
      the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder (collectively “Code
      Section 409A”)
      and,
      for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a
“termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean “separation
      from service.” If Employee is deemed on the date of termination of his
      employment to be a “specified employee”, within the meaning of that term under
      Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B) and using the identification methodology selected
      by
      the Employer from time to time, or if none, the default methodology,

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        12

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    
then with regard to any payment or the providing of any
    benefit made
    subject to this Section 10(d), to the extent such payment and benefits exceed
    the Separation Pay Limit (as defined herein) and is required to be delayed in
    compliance with Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B), such payment or benefit shall not
    be
    made or provided prior to the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six-month
    period measured from the date of the Employee’s “separation from service” and
    (ii) the date of the Employee’s death. On the first day of the seventh month
    following the date of the Employee’s “separation from service” or, if earlier,
    on the date of his death, all payments delayed pursuant to this Section 10(d)
    (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in
    installments in the absence of such delay) shall be paid or reimbursed to
    Employee in a lump sum, and any remaining payments and benefits due under this
    Agreement shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates
    specified for them herein. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Separation
    Pay Limit”
means
    two times the lesser of: (i) the Employee’s annualized compensation based on the
    Employee’s annual rate of pay for the Employee’s taxable year preceding the
    taxable year in which the Employee’s termination of employment occurs; and (ii)
    the maximum amount that may be taken into account under a tax-qualified plan
    pursuant to Code Section 401(a)(17) for the year in which the Employee
    terminates employment.
     

    (e) The
      Employer shall provide the Release to the Employee within seven (7) business
      days following the date of termination. In
      order
      to receive the payments and benefits provided in Section 10(b)(1), (2) and
      (3),
the
      Employee shall
      be
      required to sign the Release within 21 or 45 days after the date it is provided
      to him, as required by applicable law, and not revoke it within the seven day
      period following the date on which it is signed. All payments 

    
      
        
          
          

        

        
          13

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

    

    delayed
      pursuant to the foregoing, except to the extent
      delayed pursuant to Section 10(d), shall be paid to the Employee in a lump
      sum
      on the first Employer payroll date on or following the sixtieth (60th)
      day
      after the date of termination, and any remaining payments due under this
      Agreement shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates
      specified for them herein.

     

    11. Confidentiality.
      The
      Employee recognizes and acknowledges that the Proprietary Information (as
      hereinafter defined) is a valuable, special and unique asset of the Employer.
      As
      a result, during the Term of Employment and thereafter, the Employee shall
      not,
      without the prior written consent of the Board, for any reason, either directly
      or indirectly, divulge to any third party (except as may be required to further
      the interests of the Employer) or use for his own benefit, or for any purpose
      other than the exclusive benefit of the Employer, any and all confidential,
      proprietary, business and technical information or trade secrets of the
      Employer’s Group (“Proprietary Information”) revealed, obtained or developed in
      the course of his employment with the Employer’s Group. Such Proprietary
      Information shall include but shall not be limited to, marketing and development

      customers who are engaged in discussions with the Employer’s Group, the needs
      and requirements of any such customers, and any other confidential information
      relating to the business of the Employer’s Group, provided that nothing herein
      contained shall restrict the Employee’s ability to make such disclosures during
      the course of his employment as may be necessary or appropriate to the effective
      and efficient discharge of his duties hereunder or such disclosures

    
      
        
          
          

        

        
          14

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

    

     

    as
      may be required by law; and further provided that
      nothing herein contained shall restrict Employee from divulging or using for
      his
      own benefit or for any other purpose any Proprietary Information which is
      readily available to the general public so long as such information did not
      become available to the general public as a direct or indirect result of
      Employee’s breach of this Section 11.
      

      12. Property
        and Inventions.
        

       

      (a) All
        Proprietary Information shall be and remain the sole property of the Employer.
        During the Term of Employment, and thereafter, Employee shall not remove
        from
        the Employer’s Group offices or premises any documents, records, notebooks,
        files, correspondence, reports, memoranda or similar materials of or containing
        information of the type identified in Section 11 hereof, or other materials
        or
        property of any kind unless necessary or appropriate in accordance with his
        duties and responsibilities hereunder and, in the event that such materials
        or
        property are removed, all of the foregoing shall be returned to their proper
        files or places of safekeeping as promptly as reasonably possible after the
        removal shall serve its specific purpose. Employee shall not make, retain,
        remove and/or distribute any copies of any of the foregoing for any reason
        whatsoever except as may be necessary in the discharge of his assigned duties;
        and upon the termination of his employment with the Employer, he shall leave
        with or return to the Employer all originals and copies of the foregoing
        then in
        his possession, whether prepared by Employee or by
        others.

    (b) The
      Employee acknowledges that all developments, including, without limitation,
      inventions, patentable or otherwise, discoveries, improvements, patents, trade
      secrets, designs, reports, computer software, flow charts and diagrams,
      procedures, data, documentation, ideas and writings and applications thereof
      relating to the business or planned business of the Employer or any of its
      subsidiaries or affiliates that, alone or jointly with others, the Employee
      may
      conceive, create, make, develop, reduce to practice or acquire during the Term
      of Employment (or while employed with the Employer prior the Term of Employment)
      (collectively, the “Developments”) are works made for hire and shall remain the
      sole and exclusive property of the Employer and the Employee hereby assigns
      to
      the Employer all of his rights, title and interest in and to all such
      Developments. The Employee shall promptly and fully disclose all future material
      Developments to the Board and, at any time upon request and at the expense
      of
      the Employer, shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Employer all
      instruments that the Employer shall prepare, give evidence and take all other
      actions that are necessary or desirable in the reasonable opinion of the
      Employer to enable the Employer to file and prosecute applications for and
      to
      acquire, maintain and enforce all letters patent, trademark registrations or
      copyrights covering the Developments in all countries in which the same are
      deemed necessary by the Employer. All memoranda, notes, lists, drawings,
      records, files, computer tapes, programs, software, source and programming
      narratives and other documentation (and all copies thereof) made or compiled
      by
      the Employee or made available to the Employee concerning the Developments
      or
      otherwise concerning the business or planned business of the Employer or any
      of
      its subsidiaries or affiliates shall be the property of the Employer or such
      subsidiary or affiliate and shall be 

    
      
        
          
          

        

        
          16

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

    

     

    delivered
      to the Employer or such subsidiary or
      affiliate promptly upon the expiration or termination of the Term of
      Employment.

     

    (c) The
      provisions of this Section shall, without any limitation as to time, survive
      the
      expiration or termination of the Employee’s employment hereunder, irrespective
      of the reason for any termination.

     

    13. Covenant
      not to Compete and Non-Solicitation.
      In
      consideration for the benefits and payments described herein and other good
      and
      valuable consideration, the Employee shall not, during the Term of Employment
      and for a period of twelve (12) months after his employment terminates for
      any
      reason, engage in any of the following directly or indirectly without the prior
      written consent of the Board:

     

    (a) engage
      or
      participate in any business activity directly competitive with the business
      of
      the Employer’s Group as conducted upon the termination of the Employee’s
      employment with the Employer or proposed to be conducted at such
      time;

    

    (b) become
      interested in (as owner, stockholder, lender, partner, co-venturer, director,
      officer, employee, agent, consultant or otherwise) any person, firm,
      corporation, association or other entity engaged in any business that is, taken
      as a whole, directly competitive with the business of the Employer’s Group as
      conducted upon the termination of the Employee’s employment (or proposed to be
      conducted at such time) with the Employer, or become interested in (as owner,
      stockholder, lender, partner, co-venturer, director, officer, employee, agent,
      consultant or otherwise) any subsidiary or division of 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        17

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    the
      business of any person, firm, corporation, association or other affiliate where
      such portion of such business is directly competitive with the business of
      the
      Employer’s Group as conducted upon termination of the Employee’s employment with
      the Employer (or proposed to be conducted at such time). Notwithstanding the
      foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 13 shall prohibit the Employee
      from
      (i) holding not more than five percent (5%) of the outstanding securities of
      any
      class of any publicly-traded company, or (ii) after the Term of Employment
      engaging or participating in or having an interest in (as owner, stockholder,
      lender, partner, co-venturer, director, officer, employee, agent, consultant
      or
      otherwise) any subsidiary or division of the business of any person, firm,
      corporation, association or other affiliate where such portion of such business
      is not directly competitive with the business of the Employer’s Group as
      conducted upon termination of the Employee’s employment with the Employer (or
      proposed to be conducted at such time), provided Employee does not breach the
      provisions of Section 13 (c) or (d) or (e), hereof;

     

    
      (c) solicit
        or attempt to solicit either directly or indirectly any customer of the
        Employer’s Group with whom the Employer’s Group shall have dealt regularly at
        any time during the one (1) year period immediately preceding the termination
        of
        the Employee’s employment with the Employer for the purpose of offering or
        selling any products or services which are identical, substantially similar
        or
        comparable to the products or services then offered to the customer by the
        Employer’s Group;

    

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        18

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    (d) influence
      or attempt to influence any supplier, customer, or potential customer of the
      Employer’s Group to terminate or modify any written or oral agreement or course
      of dealing with the Employer’s Group; or

     

    (e) (i)
      influence or attempt to influence any person to terminate or modify his
      employment (or other service relationship) with the Employer’s Group, or (ii)
      employ or retain directly or indirectly, any person employed or retained by
      the
      Employer’s Group as an employee or other service provider at any time during the
      six (6) month period preceding the effective date of the Employee’s
      termination.

     

    14. Specific
      Performance.
      The
      Employee acknowledges that the services to be rendered by the Employee are
      of a
      special, unique and extraordinary character and, in connection with such
      services, the Employee will have access to confidential information vital to
      the
      Employer’s business and the business of its subsidiaries and affiliates. By
      reason of this, the Employee acknowledges consents and agrees that if the
      Employee violates any of the provisions of Sections 11, 12 or 13 hereof,
      the Employer would sustain irreparable injury and that money damages would
      not
      provide adequate remedy to the Employer and that, in addition to any other
      remedies the Employer might have, including money damages, the Employer shall
      be
      entitled to have Sections 11, 12 and 13 specifically enforced by any court
      having jurisdiction by means of any and all equitable remedies. The provisions
      of Sections 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16 and 19 shall survive the termination of
      this Agreement.

      409A.

     

    (a) Although
      the Employer does not guarantee the tax treatment of any particular payment

    Exhibit
      “A”

     

    FULL
      AND FINAL WAIVER AND RELEASE OF CLAIMS

     

    1. I
      have
      had the opportunity to review and consider this Full and Final Waiver and
      Release of Claims (“Waiver and Release”), and information on the benefits
      available to me in accordance with the Employment Agreement between Maidenform,
      Inc. and me dated as of October 8, 2008, as the same may have been amended
      from
      time to time (“Employment Agreement”) for a period of at least twenty-one (21)
      days. I also have had the opportunity during such period to discuss this Waiver
      and Release and such benefit information fully with whomsoever I wished, and
      have been advised that I could consult an attorney of my own choice and have
      had
      a reasonable opportunity to do so. I have freely and voluntarily elected to
      take
      advantage of the severance benefits under the Employment Agreement.

     

    2. In
      consideration for the payments and benefits available to me under the Employment
      Agreement following the termination of my employment as set forth in Section
      10
      of the Employment Agreement, the sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged,
      and, other than claims for accrued, vested benefits under any employee benefit
      plan of Maidenform, Inc. (including vested stock options) or for any of the
      Employer’s obligations or my rights pursuant to Section 10 and 19 of the
      Employment Agreement, and except as provided in paragraph 5 of this Waiver
      and
      Release,
      I
      fully
      and finally waive, discharge, and release Maidenform, Inc., the Parent (as
      defined in the Employment Agreement) and their current, former and future
      subsidiaries, divisions, related entities, employee benefit plans and funds,
      and
      their respective current,  

    
      
        
          
          

        

        
          A-1

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

    

    former
      and future directors, officers, shareholders,
      employees, attorneys, and agents (whether acting as agents for Maidenform,
      Inc.,
      Parent or in their individual capacities) (herein collectively referred to
      as
“the Company”), from any and all claims of whatsoever nature, known and unknown,
      whether in law or in equity, which I or anyone acting through me, my estate
      or
      on my behalf ever had, now have or may have against the Company by reason of
      any
      actual or alleged act, omission, transaction, practice, conduct, occurrence
      or
      other matter up to and including the date I sign this Waiver and Release,
      provided, however, that the foregoing shall not be deemed to waive any
      indemnification rights I may have pursuant to applicable law, the Certificates
      of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company or under any Directors and Officers
      Liability Insurance Policy.

    

    3. Without
      limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph, but subject to the
      limitations set forth in Section 2 hereof and
      except as provided in paragraph 5 of this Waiver and Release, this Waiver and
      Release is intended to and shall release the Company from any and all claims
      arising out of or in connection with my employment with Maidenform, Inc. and
      with the termination or decision to terminate said employment, including but
      not
      limited to (i) any claim under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act
      (including the Older Worker Benefit Protection Act), as amended, Title VII
      of
      the Civil Rights Act of 1964, The Civil Rights Act of 1866, or any other Civil
      Rights Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Employee Retirement Income
      Security Act of 1974 (excluding claims for accrued, vested benefits under any
      employee benefit pension plan of the Company in accordance with the terms and
      conditions of such plan and applicable law), and the Family and Medical Leave
      Act; (ii) any other claim (whether 

    
      
        
          
          

        

        
          A-2

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

    

    based
      on federal, state, or local law, statutory or
      decisional including, but not limited to the New York State Human Rights Law,
      the New York City Administrative Code, New Jersey Civil Rights Act or the New
      Jersey Law Against Discrimination, the
      New
      Jersey Family Leave Act,
      the
      Millville Dallas Airmotive Plant Job Loss Notification Act, as amended) relating
      to or arising out of my employment, the terms and conditions of such employment,
      the termination of such employment, and/or any of the events relating directly
      or indirectly to or surrounding the termination of that employment, including
      but not limited to breach of contract (express or implied), wrongful discharge,
      detrimental reliance, defamation, emotional distress or compensatory or punitive
      damages; and (iii) any claim for attorneys’ fees, costs, disbursements and/or
      the like.

    

    4. Rights
      and Claims Preserved.
      Nothing
      in this Agreement prevents me from filing a charge with the United States Equal
      Employment Opportunity Commission ("EEOC") or from cooperating with the EEOC;
      however,
      I
      understand and agree that I shall not accept, and shall not be entitled to
      retain, any compensation or other relief recovered by the EEOC on my behalf
      as a
      result of such charge with respect to any matter covered by this Agreement.
      Nothing in this Agreement prevents me from filing a lawsuit challenging the
      validity of my waiver of federal age discrimination claims under the Age
      Discrimination in Employment Act and the Older Workers Benefit Protection
      Act.

     

    5. OWBPA.
      The release in paragraph 3 of this Agreement includes a waiver of claims against
      the Company under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act ("ADEA") and the
      Older Workers Benefit Protection Act ("OWBPA"). Therefore, pursuant to the
      requirements of the ADEA and the OWBPA, I specifically acknowledge the
      following:

    
      
        
        

      

      
        A-3

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    (a) that
      I am
      and have been advised to consult with an attorney of my choosing concerning
      the
      legal significance of this Agreement;

     

    (b) that
      this
      Agreement is written in a manner I understand;

     

    (c) that
      the
      consideration set forth in Section 10 of the Employment Agreement is adequate
      and sufficient for my entering into this Agreement and consists of benefits
      to
      which I am not otherwise entitled;

     

    (d) that
      I
      have been afforded twenty-one (21) days to consider this Agreement before
      signing it (although I may sign it at any time prior to those 21 days) and
      that
      any changes to this Agreement subsequently agreed upon by the parties, whether
      material or immaterial, do not restart this period for consideration;
      and

     

    (e) that
      I
      have been advised that during the seven (7) day period after I sign the
      Agreement, I may revoke my acceptance of this Agreement by delivering written
      notice to the Company, 485 F U.S. Highway 1, Iselin NJ 08830 attention: Steven
      N. Masket, General Counsel, and that this Agreement shall not become effective
      or enforceable until after the revocation period has expired.

     

    6. In
      order
      to induce the Company to extend the payments and benefits available to me under
      the Employment Agreement, I hereby represent and warrant to the Company as
      follows:

    
      
        
        

      

      
        A-4

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    (i)
      no
      other
      promise, inducement, threat, agreement or understanding of any kind or
      description whatsoever has been made with or to me by any person or entity
      whomsoever to cause me to execute this Waiver and Release;

     

    (ii)
      I
      have
      not incurred any injury or disability precluding regular employment as a result
      of my employment at the Company;

     

    (iii)
      I
      am not
      eligible for reinstatement or reemployment or employment with the Company at
      any
      time in the future and covenant that I will not seek resumed employment or
      any
      other remunerative relationship, including without limitation any form of
      independent contractor or consultant relationship with the Company;

     

    (iv)
      this
      Waiver and Release is not intended, and shall not be construed, as an admission
      that the Company has violated any federal, state or local law (statutory or
      decisional), ordinance or regulation, breached any contract or committed any
      wrong whatsoever against me. I agree that this Waiver and Release may only
      be
      used as evidence in a subsequent proceeding in which the parties allege a breach
      of this Waiver and Release; and

     

    7. I
      agree
      that I will not disparage or encourage or induce others to disparage the
      Company. For the purposes of this Waiver and Release, the term “disparage”
includes, without limitation, comments or statements to the press and/or media,
      the Company or any individual or entity with whom the Company has a business
      relationship which would adversely affect in 

    
      
        
          
          

        

        
          A-5

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

    

    any
      manner (i) the conduct of the business of the
      Company (including, without limitation, any business plans or prospects) or
      (ii)
      the business reputation of the Company.

    

    8. (a)
      I
      agree that I will cooperate with the Company and its counsel in connection
      with
      any investigation, administrative proceeding or litigation relating to any
      matter that occurred during my employment in which I was involved or of which
      I
      have knowledge.

     

    (b) I
      agree
      that, in the event I am subpoenaed by any person or entity (including, but
      not
      limited to, any government agency) to give testimony (in a deposition, court
      proceeding or otherwise) which in any way relates to my employment by the
      Company, I will give prompt notice of such request to Steven N. Masket (or
      his successor) at 485 F U.S. Highway 1 South, Iselin, NJ 08830 and, unless
      required by court order, will make no disclosure until the Company has had
      a
      reasonable opportunity to contest the right of the requesting person or entity
      to such disclosure.

     

    9. I
      represent that I have returned (or will return) to the Company all property
      belonging to the Company, including but not limited to laptop, cell phone,
      keys,
      card access to the building and office floors, Employee Handbook, phone card,
      Rolodex (if provided by the Company), computer user name and password, disks
      and/or voicemail code.

     

    10. (a)
      The
      terms and conditions of this Waiver and Release are and shall be deemed to
      be
      confidential, and shall not be disclosed by me to any person or entity without
      the prior written consent of the Company, except if required by law, and to
      my
      accountants, attorneys and/or immediate family members, provided that, to the
      maximum extent permitted by 

    
      
        
        

      

      
        A-6

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    applicable law, rule or regulation, they agree to maintain
      the
      confidentiality of the aforesaid documents. I further represent that I have
      not
      disclosed the terms and conditions of the aforesaid documents to anyone other
      than my attorneys, accountants and/or immediate family members.

    (b)
      I
      hereby acknowledge and reaffirm my continuing obligations under Sections 11,
      12
      and 13 of the Employment Agreement relating to confidentiality, return of
      property, developments, noncompetition and nonsolicitation.

     

    11. I
      also
      expressly acknowledge that in the event that a court of competent jurisdiction
      determines that this Waiver and Release is illegal, void or unenforceable,
      I
      agree to execute a release or waiver that is legal and enforceable.
      Additionally, I agree that any breach by me of paragraphs 2, 3, 7, 8, 9 or
      10
      shall constitute a material breach of this Waiver and Release as to which the
      Company may seek all relief available under the law.

     

    12. This
      Waiver and Release is binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, the
      parties and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and
      assigns.

     

    13. This
      Waiver and Release shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws
      of the State of New York without regard to the principles of conflict of
      laws.

     

    FINALLY,
      I HAVE CAREFULLY READ THIS WAIVER AND RELEASE, KNOW AND UNDERSTAND THE WAIVER
      AND RELEASE AND HAVE SIGNED THIS WAIVER AND RELEASE AS MY OWN FREE ACT AND
      DEED.

      year
      2008 and $70,000,000 during any single fiscal year thereafter, provided that,
      (i) if the aggregate amount of Capital Expenditures shall be less than
      $80,000,000 for fiscal year 2008 or $70,000,000 for any fiscal year thereafter,
      then such shortfall shall be added to the amount of Capital Expenditures
      permitted for the immediately succeeding (but not any other) fiscal year and,
      for purposes hereof, the amount of Capital Expenditures made during any fiscal
      year beginning with the fiscal year 2009 shall be deemed to have been made
      first
      from the $70,000,000 expressly permitted amount for any single fiscal year
      and
      last from the amount of any carryover from the previous fiscal year and (ii)
      for
      any fiscal year beginning with the fiscal year 2008 (other than the fiscal
      year
      in which the Commitment Termination Date falls), the amount of any Capital
      Expenditures permitted in such fiscal year (including as a result of any
      carryover permitted by clause (i) above) may be increased by an aggregate amount
      not to exceed $20,000,000 (in which case the amount of such increase shall
      reduce, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, the amount of Capital Expenditures that
      would have been permitted to be incurred in the immediately succeeding fiscal
      year)."

    

    Section
      3. Representations
      and Warranties.

      to itself and each of its Subsidiaries, that (a) the representations and
      warranties set forth in Article V of the Credit Agreement, and in each of the
      other Loan Documents, are true and correct in all material respects on the
      date
      hereof as if made on and as of the date hereof (or, if any such representation
      or warranty is expressly stated to have been made as of a specific date, such
      representation or warranty shall be true and correct as of such specific date),
      and as if each reference in said Article V to “this Agreement” included
      reference to this Amendment No. 2 and (b) no Default has occurred and is
      continuing.

      No. 2 executed by the Obligors and the Administrative Agent and (b) evidence
      of
      the payment by the Company of all fees payable to the Administrative Agent
      and/or the Lenders consenting to this Amendment No. 2 that any of the Obligors
      have agreed to pay under any fee letter executed in connection with this
      Amendment No. 2. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Company and the
