     THIS GUARANTEE (“Guarantee”), dated June 23, 2009, is by Saitek Elektronik Vertriebs Gmbh, a
German corporation (“Guarantor”), with its chief executive office at Landsberger Strasse 400,
81241, Munich, Germany in favor of Wachovia Capital Finance Corporation (Central), an Illinois
corporation, as US Collateral Agent for and on behalf of the Secured Parties and as Lender, having
an office at 150 South Wacker Drive, Suite 2200, Chicago, Illinois 60606-4202.

W I T N E S S E T H :

     WHEREAS, US Collateral Agent, Lender and Mad Catz, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”),
have entered or are about to enter into financing arrangements pursuant to which Lender may make
loans and advances and provide other financial accommodations to Borrower as set forth in the Third
Amended and Restated Loan Agreement, dated June 23, 2009, by and among US Collateral Agent, Lender,
Borrower and Obligors (as the same now exists or may hereafter be amended, modified, supplemented,
extended, renewed, restated or replaced, the “Third Amended and Restated Loan Agreement”) and other
agreements, documents and instruments referred to therein or at any time executed and/or delivered
in connection therewith or related thereto, including, but not limited to, this Guarantee (all of
the foregoing, together with the Third Amended and Restated Loan Agreement, as the same now exist
or may hereafter be amended, modified, supplemented, extended, renewed, restated or replaced, being
collectively referred to herein as the “Financing Agreements”); and

     WHEREAS, due to the close business and financial relationships between Borrower and Guarantor,
in consideration of the benefits which will accrue to Guarantor and as an inducement for and in
consideration of Lender making loans and advances and providing other financial accommodations to
Borrower pursuant to the Third Amended and Restated Loan Agreement and the other Financing
Agreements, Guarantor wishes to guarantee the obligations pursuant to the terms hereof;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto
agree as follows:

     1. Guarantee.

     (a) Guarantor absolutely and unconditionally guarantees and agrees to be liable for the full
and indefeasible payment and performance when due of the following (all of which are collectively
referred to herein as the “Guaranteed Obligations”):

	 	(i)	 	all obligations, liabilities and indebtedness of any kind,
nature and description of Borrower and any Obligor to Lender, any Agent, their
respective affiliates and/or owing to any financial institution under or in
connection with a Swap Agreement, including principal, interest, charges, fees,
costs and expenses, however evidenced, whether as principal, surety, endorser,
guarantor or otherwise, whether arising under the Third Amended and Restated
Loan Agreement, the other Financing Agreements,

 

- 2 -

	 	 	 	any Swap Agreement or otherwise, whether now existing or hereafter arising,
whether arising before, during or after the initial or any renewal term of
the Third Amended and Restated Loan Agreement or after the commencement of
any case with respect to Borrower or any Obligor under the Bankruptcy Code
or any similar statute (including, without limitation, the payment of
interest and other amounts, which would accrue and become due but for the
commencement of such case, whether or not such amounts are allowed or
allowable in whole or in part in any such case and including loans,
interest, fees, charges and expenses related thereto and all other
obligations of Borrower or any Obligor to Lender, any Agent, their
respective affiliates and such financial institution arising after the
commencement of such case), whether direct or indirect, absolute or
contingent, joint or several, due or not due, primary or secondary,
liquidated or unliquidated, secured or unsecured, and however acquired by
Lender, any Agent, their respective affiliates and such financial
institution; and
	 
	 	(ii)	 	all expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees
and legal expenses) incurred by Lender, any Agent, their respective affiliates
and such financial institution in connection with the preparation, execution,
delivery, recording, administration, collection, liquidation, enforcement and
defense of Borrower’s or any Obligor’s obligations, liabilities and
indebtedness as aforesaid, the rights of Lender, any Agent, their respective
affiliates and such financial institution in any collateral or under this
Guarantee, all other Financing Agreements or Swap Agreements or in any way
involving claims by or against Lender, Agent, their respective affiliates and
such financial institution directly or indirectly arising out of or related to
the relationships between Borrower, Guarantor or any other Obligor and Lender,
any Agent, their respective affiliates and such financial institution, whether
such expenses are incurred before, during or after the initial or any renewal
term of the Third Amended and Restated Loan Agreement, the other Financing
Agreements or any Swap Agreement or after the commencement of any case with
respect to Borrower or Obligors under the Bankruptcy Code or any similar
statute.

     (b) This Guarantee is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. Guarantor agrees that
Lender and US Collateral Agent need not attempt to collect any Guaranteed Obligations from Borrower
or any other Obligor or to realize upon any collateral, but may require Guarantor to make immediate
payment of all of the Guaranteed Obligations (except under or in connection with any Swap
Agreement) to Lender when due, whether by maturity, acceleration or otherwise, or at any time
thereafter. Lender may apply any amounts received in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations to any
of the Guaranteed Obligations, in whole or in part (including attorneys’ fees and legal expenses
incurred by Lender or US Collateral Agent with respect thereto or otherwise chargeable to Borrower
or Obligors) and in such order as Lender may elect.

     (c) Payment by Guarantor shall be made to Lender at the office of Lender from time to time on
demand as Guaranteed Obligations become due. Guarantor shall make all payments

 

- 3 -

to Lender on the Guaranteed Obligations free and clear of, and without deduction or
withholding for or on account of, any setoff, counterclaim, defense, duties, taxes, levies,
imposts, fees, deductions, withholding, restrictions or conditions of any kind. One or more
successive or concurrent actions may be brought hereon against Guarantor either in the same action
in which Borrower or any other Obligor is sued or in separate actions. In the event any claim or
action, or action on any judgment, based on this Guarantee is brought against Guarantor, Guarantor
agrees not to deduct, set-off, or seek any counterclaim for or recoup any amounts which are or may
be owed by Lender, US Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to Guarantor.

     (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the amount of the obligations
payable by Guarantor under this Guarantee shall be the aggregate amount of the Guaranteed
Obligations unless a court of competent jurisdiction adjudicates Guarantor’s obligations to be
invalid, avoidable or unenforceable for any reason (including, without limitation, because of any
applicable state or federal law relating to fraudulent conveyances or transfers), in which case the
amount of the Guaranteed Obligations payable by Guarantor hereunder shall be limited to the maximum
amount that could be guaranteed by Guarantor without rendering such Guarantor’s obligations under
this Guarantee invalid, avoidable or unenforceable under such applicable law.

     2. Waivers and Consents.

     (a) Notice of acceptance of this Guarantee, the making of loans and advances and providing
other financial accommodations to Borrower and presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest,
notice of nonpayment or default and all other notices to which Borrower or Obligors are entitled
are hereby waived by Guarantor.

     (b) Guarantor also waives notice of and hereby consents to:

	 	(i)	 	any amendment, modification, supplement, extension, renewal, or
restatement of the Third Amended and Restated Loan Agreement and any of the
other Financing Agreements, including, without limitation, extensions of time
of payment of or increase or decrease in the amount of any of the Guaranteed
Obligations, the interest rate, fees, other charges, or any collateral, and the
guarantee made herein shall apply to the Third Amended and Restated Loan
Agreement and the other Financing Agreements and the Guaranteed Obligations as
so amended, modified, supplemented, renewed, restated or extended, increased or
decreased;
	 
	 	(ii)	 	the taking, exchange, surrender and releasing of collateral or
guarantees now or at any time held by or available to Lender, US Collateral
Agent or any Secured Party for the obligations of Borrower or any Obligor,
including, without limitation, the surrender or release by Lender or US
Collateral Agent of Guarantor hereunder;
	 
	 	(iii)	 	the exercise of, or refraining from the exercise of, any
rights against Borrower, Guarantor or any other Obligor or any collateral;

 

- 4 -

	 	(iv)	 	the settlement, compromise or release of, or the waiver of any
default with respect to, any of the Guaranteed Obligations; and
	 
	 	(v)	 	any financing by Lender of Borrower under Section 364
of the Bankruptcy Code or consent to the use of cash collateral by Lender under
Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code.

Guarantor agrees that the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations shall not be diminished and the
liability of Guarantor hereunder shall not be otherwise impaired or affected by any of the
foregoing.

     (c) No invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability of all or any part of the Guaranteed
Obligations shall affect, impair or be a defense to this Guarantee, nor shall any other
circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to or legal or equitable
discharge of Borrower or any Obligor in respect of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or Guarantor
in respect of this Guarantee, affect, impair or be a defense to this Guarantee. Without limitation
of the foregoing, the liability of Guarantor hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired in any
respect by reason of any failure by Lender or US Collateral Agent to perfect or continue perfection
of any lien or security interest in any collateral or any delay by Lender or US Collateral Agent in
perfecting any such lien or security interest. As to interest, fees and expenses, whether arising
before or after the commencement of any case with respect to Borrower or any Obligor under the
Bankruptcy Code or any similar statute, Guarantor shall be liable therefor, even if Borrower’s or
such Obligor’s liability for such amounts does not, or ceases to, exist by operation of law.
Guarantor acknowledges that Lender and US Collateral Agent has not made any representations to
Guarantor with respect to Borrower, any other Obligor or otherwise in connection with the execution
and delivery by Guarantor of this Guarantee and Guarantor is not in any respect relying upon Lender
or US Collateral Agent or any statements by Lender or US Collateral Agent in connection with this
Guarantee.

     (d) Unless and until the indefeasible payment and satisfaction in full of all of the
Guaranteed Obligations in immediately available funds and the termination of the financing
arrangements of Lender with Borrower, Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives and
relinquishes:

	 	(i)	 	all statutory, contractual, common law, equitable and all other
claims against Borrower or any Obligor, any collateral for the Guaranteed
Obligations or other assets of Borrower or any other Obligor, for subrogation,
reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification, setoff or other
recourse in respect to sums paid or payable to Lender by Guarantor hereunder;
and
	 
	 	(ii)	 	any and all other benefits which Guarantor might otherwise
directly or indirectly receive or be entitled to receive by reason of any
amounts paid by or collected or due from Guarantor, Borrower or any other
Obligor upon the Guaranteed Obligations or realized from their property.

 

- 5 -

     3. Subordination. Payment of all amounts now or hereafter owed to Guarantor by
Borrower or any other Obligor is hereby subordinated in right of payment to the indefeasible
payment in full to Lender of the Guaranteed Obligations and all such amounts and any security and
guarantees therefor are hereby assigned to US Collateral Agent as security for the Guaranteed
Obligations.

     4. Acceleration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or any of
the terms of any of the other Financing Agreements, the liability of Guarantor for the entire
Guaranteed Obligations shall mature and become immediately due and payable (except under or in
connection with a Swap Agreement), even if the liability of Borrower or any other Obligor therefor
does not, upon the occurrence of any act, condition or event which constitutes an Event of Default.

     5. Account Stated. The books and records of Lender showing the account between Lender
and Borrower shall be admissible in evidence in any action or proceeding against or involving
Guarantor as prima facie proof of the items therein set forth, and the monthly statements of Lender
rendered to Borrower, to the extent to which no written objection is made within thirty (30) days
from the date of sending thereof to Borrower, shall be deemed conclusively correct and constitute
an account stated between Lender and Borrower and be binding on Guarantor.

     6. Termination. This Guarantee is continuing, unlimited, absolute and unconditional.
All Guaranteed Obligations shall be conclusively presumed to have been created in reliance on this
Guarantee. Guarantor shall continue to be liable hereunder until one of Lender’s officers actually
receives a written termination notice from Guarantor sent to Lender at its address set forth above
by certified mail, return receipt requested and thereafter as set forth below. Such notice
received by Lender from Guarantor shall not constitute a revocation or termination of this
Guarantee as to any other Obligor. Revocation or termination hereof by Guarantor shall not affect,
in any manner, the rights of Lender or US Collateral Agent or any obligations or duties of
Guarantor under this Guarantee with respect to (a) Guaranteed Obligations which have been created,
contracted, assumed or incurred prior to the receipt by Lender of such written notice of revocation
or termination as provided herein, including, without limitation, (i) all amendments, extensions,
renewals and modifications of such Guaranteed Obligations (whether or not evidenced by new or
additional agreements, documents or instruments executed on or after such notice of revocation or
termination), (ii) all interest, fees and similar charges accruing or due on and after revocation
or termination, and (iii) all attorneys’ fees and legal expenses, costs and other expenses paid or
incurred on or after such notice of revocation or termination in attempting to collect or enforce
any of the Guaranteed Obligations against Borrower, Guarantor or any other Obligor (whether or not
suit be brought), or (b) Guaranteed Obligations which have been created, contracted, assumed or
incurred after the receipt by Lender of such written notice of revocation or termination as
provided herein pursuant to any contract entered into by Lender or any Secured Party prior to
receipt of such notice. The sole effect of such revocation or termination by Guarantor shall be to
exclude from this Guarantee the liability of Guarantor for those Guaranteed Obligations arising
after the date of receipt by Lender of such written notice which are unrelated to Guaranteed
Obligations arising or transactions entered into prior to such date. Without limiting the
foregoing, this Guarantee may not be terminated and shall continue so long as the Third Amended and
Restated Loan

 

- 6 -

Agreement shall be in effect (whether during its original term or any renewal, substitution or
extension thereof).

     7. Reinstatement. If after receipt of any payment of, or proceeds of collateral
applied to the payment of, any of the Guaranteed Obligations, Lender is required to surrender or
return such payment or proceeds to any Person for any reason, then the Guaranteed Obligations
intended to be satisfied by such payment or proceeds shall be reinstated and continue and this
Guarantee shall continue in full force and effect as if such payment or proceeds had not been
received by Lender. Guarantor shall be liable to pay to Lender, and does indemnify and hold Lender
harmless for the amount of any payments or proceeds surrendered or returned. This Section
7 shall remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which may be taken by Lender in
reliance upon such payment or proceeds. This Section 7 shall survive the termination or
revocation of this Guarantee.

     8. Amendments and Waivers. Neither this Guarantee nor any provision hereof shall be
amended, modified, waived or discharged orally or by course of conduct, but only by a written
agreement signed by an authorized officer of Lender and US Collateral Agent. Lender and US
Collateral Agent shall not by any act, delay, omission or otherwise be deemed to have expressly or
impliedly waived any of their respective rights, powers and/or remedies unless such waiver shall be
in writing and signed by an authorized officer of Lender and US Collateral Agent. Any such waiver
shall be enforceable only to the extent specifically set forth therein. A waiver by Lender or US
Collateral Agent of any right, power and/or remedy on any one occasion shall not be construed as a
bar to or waiver of any such right, power and/or remedy which Lender or US Collateral Agent would
otherwise have on any future occasion, whether similar in kind or otherwise.

     9. Guarantee Limitations.

     (a) US Collateral Agent and Lender agree to release proceeds from the enforcement of this
Guarantee to the extent that enforcement under this Guarantee caused a reduction of the amount of
Guarantor’s Net Assets (Reinvermögen) (as defined below), below the amount of its registered share
capital which is protected by Sections 30 and 31 of the German Limited Liability
Companies Act or where Guarantor’s net assets already are below the amount of its registered share
capital, cause such amount to be further reduced. “Net Assets” are calculated as the sum of the
balance sheet positions shown under Section 266 (2) (A), (B) and (C) of the
German Commercial Code, less the sum of the amounts shown under balance sheet positions pursuant to
Section 266 (3) (B), (C) (but disregarding, for the avoidance of doubt, the
obligations under this Guarantee) and (D) German Commercial Code each as shown in a balance
sheet as of the date on which the enforcement of this Guarantee is sought (Stichtagsbilanz).

     (b) The above release obligations shall not apply if after the date of enforcement Guarantor
does not provide conclusive evidence, including in particular interim financial statements up to
the end of the last completed calendar month, within fifteen (15) days after the date of the
enforcement, or if after receipt of unaudited financial statements notification is given to
Guarantor to provide audited financial statements up to the end of that same calendar month and
such audited financial statements are not provided within forty five (45) days after the date of
such demand.

 

- 7 -

     (c) Guarantor shall realise, to the extent legally permitted and commercially justifiable, any
and all of its assets that are shown in the balance sheet or are not recorded at all with a book
value (Buchwert) that is significantly lower than the market value of the assets if the asset is
not necessary for Guarantor’s business (betriebsnotwendig) in a situation where Guarantor does not
have sufficient Net Assets to maintain its registered share capital, and US Collateral Agent and
Lender has (due to Section 9 (a) above) to release proceeds. Furthermore, it shall take,
to the extent legally permitted and commercially justifiable, any other measures (including,
without limitation, set-off claims) to avoid a payment under this Guarantee causing the Net Assets
of Guarantor to be reduced below the amount of its registered share capital which is protected by
Sections 30 and 31 of the German Limited Liability Companies Act.

     (d) If, after having been provided with audited financial statements according to Section
9 (b) above which resulted in an obligation to release proceeds, US Collateral Agent and
Lender ascertains that the financial condition of Guarantor as set out in such audited financial
statements has substantially improved (in particular, if Guarantor has taken any action in
accordance with Section 9 (c) above), US Collateral Agent and Lender may, at Guarantor’s
cost and expense, arrange for the preparation of updated audited financial statements of Guarantor
in order to determine whether and, if so, to what extent the release obligations under this
Section 9 are no longer applicable as a result of the improvement of the financial
condition of Guarantor.

     (e) The above restrictions shall not apply if, at the time of enforcement of this Guarantee,
Guarantor (i) is a party to a domination or profit and loss transfer agreement (Beherrschungs- oder
Gewinnabführungsvertrag) or (ii) has a valuable consideration or recourse claim (vollwertiger
Gegenleistungs- oder Rückgewähranspruch) against an affiliated company (verbundenes Unternehmen)
within the meaning of Section 15 of the German Stock Corporation Act, which fully covers
the loss incurred by the enforcement of this Guarantee.

     10. Corporate Existence, Power and Authority. Guarantor is a corporation duly
organized and in good standing under the laws of its state or other jurisdiction of incorporation
and is duly qualified as a foreign corporation and in good standing in all states or other
jurisdictions where the nature and extent of the business transacted by it or the ownership of
assets makes such qualification necessary, except for those jurisdictions in which the failure to
so qualify would not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of
operation or businesses of Guarantor or the rights of Lender or US Collateral Agent hereunder or
under any of the other Financing Agreements. The execution, delivery and performance of this
Guarantee is within the corporate powers of Guarantor, have been duly authorized and are not in
contravention of law or the terms of the certificates of incorporation, by laws, or other
organizational documentation of Guarantor, or any indenture, agreement or undertaking to which
Guarantor is a party or by which Guarantor or its property are bound. This Guarantee constitutes
the legal, valid and binding obligation of Guarantor enforceable in accordance with its terms.

     11. Governing Law; Choice of Forum; Service of Process; Jury Trial Waiver.

     (a) The validity, interpretation and enforcement of this Guarantee and any dispute arising out
of the relationship between Guarantor, Lender and US Collateral Agent, whether in contract, tort,
equity or otherwise, shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of Illinois

 

- 8 -

but excluding any principles of conflicts of law or other rule of law that would result in the
application of the law of any jurisdiction other than the laws of the State of Illinois.

     (b) Guarantor hereby irrevocably consents and submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the
Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois and the United States District Court for the Northern
District of Illinois whichever Lender or US Collateral Agent elects and waives any objection based
on venue or forum non conveniens with respect to any action instituted therein arising under this
Guarantee or any of the other Financing Agreements or in any way connected with or related or
incidental to the dealings of Guarantor, Lender and US Collateral Agent in respect of this
Guarantee or any of the other Financing Agreements or the transactions related hereto or thereto,
in each case whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether in contract, tort, equity or
otherwise, and agrees that any dispute arising out of the relationship between Guarantor, Borrower,
Obligors, Lender or US Collateral Agent or the conduct of any such persons in connection with this
Guarantee, the other Financing Agreements or otherwise shall be heard only in the courts described
above (except that Lender and US Collateral Agent shall have the right to bring any action or
proceeding against Guarantor or its property in the courts of any other jurisdiction which Lender
or US Collateral Agent deems necessary or appropriate in order to realize on collateral at any time
granted by Borrower, Obligors or Guarantor to Lender or US Collateral Agent or to otherwise enforce
their respective rights against Guarantor or its property).

     (c) Guarantor hereby waives personal service of any and all process upon it and consents that
all such service of process may be made by certified mail (return receipt requested) directed to
its address set forth above and service so made shall be deemed to be completed five (5) days after
the same shall have been so deposited in the U.S. mails, or, at Lender’s or US Collateral Agent’s
option, by service upon Guarantor in any other manner provided under the rules of any such courts.
Within thirty (30) days after such service, Guarantor so served shall appear in answer to such
process, failing which Guarantor shall be deemed in default and judgment may be entered by Lender
or US Collateral Agent against Guarantor for the amount of the claim and other relief requested.

     (d) GUARANTOR HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE
OF ACTION (i) ARISING UNDER THIS GUARANTEE OR ANY OF THE OTHER FINANCING AGREEMENTS OR (ii) IN ANY
WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF ANY OF GUARANTOR, LENDER AND US
COLLATERAL AGENT IN RESPECT OF THIS GUARANTEE OR ANY OF THE OTHER FINANCING AGREEMENTS OR THE
TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND
WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE. GUARANTOR HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH
CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY AND THAT
ANY OF GUARANTOR, LENDER OR US COLLATERAL AGENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OF A COPY OF THIS
GUARANTEE WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF GUARANTOR, LENDER AND US COLLATERAL
AGENT TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

 

- 9 -

     (e) Lender and US Collateral Agent shall not have any liability to Guarantor (whether in tort,
contract, equity or otherwise) for losses suffered by Guarantor in connection with, arising out of,
or in any way related to the transactions or relationships contemplated by this Guarantee, or any
act, omission or event occurring in connection herewith, unless it is determined by a final and
non-appealable judgment or court order binding on Lender and US Collateral Agent that the losses
were the result of acts or omissions of Lender and US Collateral Agent constituting gross
negligence or willful misconduct. In any such litigation, each of Lender and US Collateral Agent
shall be entitled to the benefit of the rebuttable presumption that it acted in good faith and with
the exercise of ordinary care in the performance by it of the terms of the Third Amended and
Restated Loan Agreement and the other Financing Agreements.

     12. Notices. All notices, requests and demands hereunder shall be in writing and (a)

requested, five (5) days after mailing.

     13. Partial Invalidity. If any provision of this Guarantee is held to be invalid or
unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not invalidate this Guarantee as a whole,
but this Guarantee shall be construed as though it did not contain the particular provision held to
be invalid or unenforceable and the rights and obligations of the parties shall be construed and
enforced only to such extent as shall be permitted by applicable law.

     14. Entire Agreement. This Guarantee represents the entire agreement and
understanding of this parties concerning the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all other prior
agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, representations, warranties, commitments,
proposals, offers and contracts concerning the subject matter hereof, whether oral or written.

     15. Successors and Assigns. This Guarantee shall be binding upon Guarantor and its
successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of Lender, US Collateral Agent and their
respective successors, endorsees, transferees and assigns. The liquidation, dissolution or
termination of the Guarantor shall not terminate this Guarantee as to such entity or as to any
other Obligors.

WACHOVIA CAPITAL FINANCE CORPORATION (CENTRAL) (formerly known as Congress Financial

(together with its successors and assigns, the “Agent”)

OF THE SECOND PART

WHEREAS

	 	A.	 	Pledgor entered into a stock pledge agreement dated as of September 25, 2000
(the “Pledge Agreement) pursuant to which, inter alia, Pledgor pledged the stocks
listed on Schedule I attached thereto to Agent.
	 
	 	B.	 	Pledgor wishes to amend the Pledge Agreement as set out herein.

     NOW THEREFORE in consideration of One Dollar and for other good and valuable consideration,
the parties hereto agree as set out herein.

	1.	 	This First Amendment is an amendment to the Pledge Agreement. Unless the context of this
First Amendment otherwise requires, the Pledge Agreement and this First Amendment shall be
read together and shall have effect as if the provisions of the Pledge Agreement and this
First Amendment were contained in one agreement.
	 
	2.	 	The term “Agreement” when used in the Pledge Agreement means the Pledge Agreement as amended
by this First Amendment, together with all amendments, modifications, supplements, extensions,
