    WHEREAS,
pursuant to the Credit Agreement the Lenders have agreed to make revolving loans
denominated in Dollars and Euros (the “Loans”) to BLFC from
time to time;

     

    WHEREAS,
the execution and delivery of this Guaranty is a condition precedent to the
effectiveness of the Credit Agreement;

     

    NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants contained
herein, the parties hereby agree as follows:

     

    Section
1.   Definitions.  For all purposes
of this Guaranty, except as otherwise expressly provided in Annex A hereto or
unless the context otherwise requires, capitalized terms used herein shall have

    Section
2.   Guaranty.  The Guarantor
hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees (collectively, the “Guaranty
Obligations”) the prompt and punctual payment of all Obligations due and
owing (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration, or otherwise) under the
Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents whether direct or indirect,
absolute or contingent, due or to become due, or now existing or hereafter

in full force and effect until the Guaranty Obligations are paid in full and the
Commitments are terminated, notwithstanding that from time to time prior thereto
BLFC may be free from any payment obligations under the Loan
Documents.  This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of
collection.

     

    Section
3.   Guaranty
Absolute.  The Guarantor
guarantees that the Guaranty Obligations will be paid, regardless of any
applicable law, regulation or order now or hereinafter in effect in any
jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Administrative
Agent or any Lender with respect thereto.  The liability of the
Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be irrevocable, absolute and unconditional
irrespective of, and the Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may
now or hereafter acquire in any way relating to, any or all of the
following:

Agreement, any Transaction Document or Loan Document or any other agreement or
instrument executed in connection with or pursuant thereto;

     

    (b)           Any
change in the time, manner, terms or place of payment of, or in any other term
of, all or any of the Guaranty Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of
or any consent to departure from the Credit Agreement, any Transaction Document
or Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto or
executed in connection therewith or pursuant thereto;

     

    (c)           Any
sale, exchange or non-perfection of any property standing as security for the
liabilities hereby guaranteed or any liabilities incurred directly or indirectly

amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other guaranty, for all
or any of the Guaranty Obligations;

     

    (d)           The
failure of the Administrative Agent or a Lender to assert any claim or demand or
to enforce any right or remedy against BLFC or any other Person hereunder or
under the Credit Agreement or any Transaction Document or any Loan
Document;

     

    (e)           Any
failure by BLFC in the performance of any obligation with respect to the Credit
Agreement or any other Loan Document;

     

    (f)           Any change in the corporate existence, structure or
ownership of BLFC, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other
similar proceeding affecting BLFC or its assets or resulting release or
discharge of any of the Guaranty Obligations;

     

    (g)           Any
other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a
discharge of, the Guarantor, BLFC or any other Person

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        2

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    (including
any other guarantor) that is a party to any document or instrument executed in
respect of the Guaranty Obligations;

     

    (h)           Any
limitation of BLFC’s obligations pursuant to subsection 8.16(b) of
the Credit Agreement; or

     

    (i)           Any
law, regulation, decree or order of any jurisdiction, or any other event,
affecting any term of any Guaranty Obligations or the Administrative Agent’s or
the Lenders’ rights with respect thereto, including, without limitation: (A) the
application of any such law, regulation, decree or order, including any prior
approval, which would prevent the exchange of a currency other than Dollars for
Dollars or the remittance of funds outside of such jurisdiction or the
unavailability of Dollars in any legal exchange market in such jurisdiction in
accordance with normal commercial practice; or (B) a declaration of banking
moratorium or any suspension of payments by banks in such jurisdiction or the
imposition by such jurisdiction or any governmental authority thereof of any
moratorium on, the required rescheduling or restructuring of, or
required  approval of payments on, any indebtedness in such
jurisdiction; or (C) any expropriation, confiscation, nationalization or
requisition by such country or any governmental authority that directly or
indirectly deprives the Borrower of any assets or their use or of the ability to
operate its business or a material part thereof; or (D) any war (whether or not
declared), insurrection, revolution, hostile act, civil strife or similar events
occurring in such jurisdiction which has the same effect as the events described
in clause (A), (B) or (C) above (in each of the cases contemplated in clauses
(A) through (D) above, to the extent occurring or existing on or at any time
after the date of this Guaranty).

     

    The
obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not be affected by the
amount of credit extended to BLFC, any repayment by BLFC to the Administrative
Agent or the Lenders (in each case, other than the full and final payment of all
of the Guaranty Obligations), allocation by the Administrative Agent or the
Lenders of any repayment, any compromise or discharge of the Guaranty
Obligations, any application, release or substitution of collateral or other
security therefore, release of any guarantor, surety or other person obligated
in connection with any document or instrument executed in respect of the
Guaranty Obligations, or any further advances to BLFC.

     

    Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Guarantor guarantees that it shall
pay the Administrative Agent strictly in accordance with the express terms of
any document or agreement evidencing any Guaranty Obligation.

     

    It is the
intent of this Section
3 that the Guaranty Obligations hereunder are and shall be irrevocable,
continuing, absolute and unconditional under any and all
circumstances.

     

    Section
4.   Waiver.  The
Guarantor hereby waives (a) promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance,
presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest and dishonor, notice of default,
notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration and any other notice with
respect to

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        3

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    any of
the Guaranty Obligations and this Guaranty, (b) any requirement that the
Administrative Agent or the Lenders protect, secure, perfect or insure any
security interest or Lien on any property subject thereto or exhaust any right
or take any action against BLFC or any other Person or entity or any collateral
or that BLFC or any other Person or entity be joined in any action hereunder,
(c) the defense of the statute of limitations in any action under this Guaranty
or for the collection or performance of the Guaranty Obligations, (d) any
defense arising by reason of any lack of corporate authority, (e) any defense
based upon any guaranteed party’s errors or omissions in the administration of
the Guaranty Obligations except to the extent that any error or omission is
caused by such guaranteed party’s bad faith, gross negligence or willful
misconduct, (f) any rights to set-offs and counterclaims and (g) any defense
based upon an election of remedies which destroys or impairs the subrogation
rights of the Guarantor or the right of the Guarantor to proceed against BLFC or
any other obligor of the Guaranty Obligations for reimbursement.  All
dealings between BLFC or the Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders, on the other hand, shall likewise be conclusively
presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this
Guaranty.  Should the Administrative Agent seek to enforce the
obligations of the Guarantor hereunder by action in any court, the Guarantor
waives any necessity, substantive or procedural, that a judgment previously be
rendered against BLFC or any other Person, or that any action be brought against
BLFC or any other Person, or that BLFC or any other Person should be joined in
such cause.  Such waiver shall be without prejudice to the
Administrative Agent at its option to proceed against BLFC or any other Person,
whether by separate action or by joinder.  The Guarantor further
expressly waives each and every right to which it may be entitled by virtue of
the suretyship law of the State of New York or any other applicable
jurisdiction.

     

    Section
5.   Several
Obligations; Continuing Guaranty.  The obligations of the
Guarantor hereunder are separate and apart from BLFC or any other Person (other
than the Guarantor), and are primary obligations concerning which the Guarantor
is the principal obligor.  The Guarantor agrees that this Guaranty is
a continuing guaranty and that it shall not be discharged except by payment in
full of the Guaranty Obligations, termination of the Commitments and complete
performance of the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder. The obligations of
the Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected in any way by the release or
discharge of BLFC from the performance of any of the Guaranty Obligations,
whether occurring by reason of law or any other cause, whether similar or
dissimilar to the foregoing.

     

    Section
6.   Subrogation
Rights.  If any amount
shall be paid to the Guarantor on account of subrogation rights at any time when
all the Guaranty Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall
be held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and shall forthwith
be paid to the Administrative Agent to be applied to the Guaranty Obligations as
specified in the Loan Documents.  If (a) the Guarantor makes a payment
to the Administrative Agent of all or any part of the Guaranty Obligations and
(b) all the Guaranty Obligations have been paid in full and the Commitments have
terminated, the Administrative Agent will, at the Guarantor’s request, execute
and deliver to the Guarantor appropriate documents, without recourse and without
representation or warranty of any kind whatsoever, necessary to evidence the
transfer by subrogation to the Guarantor of any interest in the Guaranty
Obligations resulting

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        4

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    from such
payment by the Guarantor.  The Guarantor hereby agrees that it shall
have no rights of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or
indemnification or any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the
Administrative Agent or any Lender against BLFC with respect to amounts due to
the Administrative Agent or the Lenders until such time as all obligations of
BLFC to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent have been paid in full, the
Commitments have been terminated and the Credit Agreement has been
terminated.

operates as lessee and to conduct the business in which it is currently engaged,

non-compliance which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse

Bar.  The execution, delivery and performance by the Guarantor
of this Guaranty, and by it and each of its Subsidiaries of the other Loan
Documents and Transaction Documents to which each such entity is a party, the
borrowings thereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof will not violate any
Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation to which the Guarantor or its
Subsidiaries is a party or by which it is bound and will not result in, or
require, the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of the properties or
revenues of any of the Guarantor or its Subsidiaries pursuant to any such

record and marketable title in fee simple to, or a valid leasehold interest in,
all its material real property, and good title to, or a valid leasehold interest
in, all its other material property except for defects in title which would not
have a Material Adverse Effect, and none of the property is subject to any Lien,
other than Permitted Liens.

     

    (h)           Environmental
Matters.  The Guarantor and its Subsidiaries have obtained all
permits, licenses and other authorizations that are necessary to operate their
respective business and required under all applicable Environmental Laws, except
where the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. Except as set forth on Schedule II attached hereto, (i)
Hazardous Materials have not at any time been generated, used, treated or stored
on, released or disposed of on, or transported to or from, any property owned,
leased, used, operated or occupied by the Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries

Environmental Laws other than where the failure to do so would not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (ii) there are no past, pending
or threatened (in writing) Environmental Claims against the Guarantor or any of

and are also in compliance in all material respects with all other limitations,
restrictions, conditions, standards, prohibitions, requirements, obligations,

Effect.

     

    (i)           No
Default.  Except with respect to the Indebtedness set forth on
Schedule III attached hereto, neither the Guarantor nor any of its Subsidiaries
is in default under or with respect to any agreement, instrument or undertaking

validly obligated to make all payments due under this Guaranty and each of its
Subsidiaries is validly obligated to make all payments due under the other Loan

imposed.

     

    (k)           Pari Passu
Status.  The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder constitute

financial statements required to be delivered pursuant hereto), which has been
made available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender by or on behalf of the
Guarantor in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and the other

    made;
provided, that,
with respect to projected financial information provided by or on behalf of the

    (o)           Restrictions on Designated

payments to Dollars or Euros.

     

    (p)           Federal

Investor Certificates will be used for “purchasing” or “carrying” any “margin
stock” within the respective meanings of each of the quoted terms under
Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System of the
United States as now and from time to time hereafter in effect.

its Subsidiaries to comply in all material respects, with the requirements of
all applicable Environmental Laws and will immediately pay or cause to be paid
all costs and expenses incurred in such compliance, except such costs and
expenses which are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings if
the Guarantor or such Subsidiary, as applicable, is maintaining adequate

respect thereto in accordance with GAAP.  Unless the failure to do so
would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, the
Guarantor shall not, nor shall it permit or suffer any of its Subsidiaries to,

material presence of Hazardous Materials in violation of or actionable under any
applicable Environmental Laws on any of its property without having taken prompt

a series of related acquisitions thereof; (vii) Liens existing immediately prior
to the execution of this Guaranty and set forth in Schedule V to this Guaranty;
(viii) Liens to secure bonds posted in order to obtain stays of judgments,

Subsidiary or to any of its Subsidiaries; and (B) property of a party to a
corporate reorganization which is not the Guarantor or a Subsidiary shall be
deemed “acquired” by the Guarantor or such Subsidiary as part of such corporate
reorganization even if the Guarantor or Subsidiary, as the case may be, is not
the surviving or resulting entity.

     

    As used
in this subsection, the term “Excluded Lien” shall mean any Lien granted by the

dividends or the making of loans by it to the Guarantor or to any other
Designated Obligor, except that the
Guarantor may permit a Designated Obligor to be party to agreements (i) limiting
the payment of dividends by such Designated Obligor following a default or an
event of default under such agreement and (ii) requiring the compliance by such
Designated Obligor with specified net worth, working capital or other similar
financial tests and (iii) restricting loans to be made by such Designated
Obligor to any other Obligor or the Guarantor to such loans which accrue
interest at a rate greater than or equal to such lending Designated Obligor’s
average cost of funds as determined in good faith by the Board of Director of
such Designated Obligor.

     

    (e)           Intercompany

Intercompany Loan to the applicable Obligor within six (6) years from the date
of such Intercompany Loan.

this Guaranty after the date of that notice shall be supplied in paper form
unless and until the Administrative Agent is satisfied that the circumstances
giving rise to the notification are no longer continuing.

waiver of any provision of this Guaranty nor consent to any departure by the
Guarantor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless such amendment or

    Section
10.   Notices, Etc.  All notices,
demands, instructions and other communications required or permitted to be given
to or made upon any Person pursuant hereto shall be in writing and shall be
personally delivered or sent by registered, certified or express mail, postage
prepaid, return receipt requested, by recognized overnight courier service or by
facsimile transmission, and shall be deemed to be given for purposes of this
Guaranty, in the case of a notice sent by registered, certified or express mail,
or by recognized overnight courier service, on the date that such writing is
actually delivered to the intended recipient thereof in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 10, or in the
case of facsimile transmission, when received and telephonically confirmed.
Unless otherwise specified in a notice sent or delivered in accordance with the
foregoing provisions of this Section 10, notices,
demands, instructions and other communications in writing shall be given to or
made upon the subject parties at their respective Notice Addresses (or to their
respective facsimile transmission numbers) or at such other address or number as
any party may notify to the other parties in accordance with the provisions of
this Section
10.

     

    Section
11.   No
Waiver; Remedies.  No failure on
the part of the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising,
any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are
cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

     

    Section
12.   Costs
and Expenses.  The Guarantor
agrees to pay, and cause to be paid, on demand all costs and expenses actually
incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the enforcement of this
Guaranty including, without limitation, the fees and out-of-pocket expenses of
outside counsel to the Administrative Agent with respect thereto. The agreements
of the Guarantor contained in this Section 12 shall
survive the payment of all other amounts owing hereunder or under any of the
other Guaranty Obligations.

     

    Section
13.   Separability.  Should any
clause, sentence, paragraph, subsection or Section of this Guaranty be
judicially declared to be invalid, unenforceable or void, such decision will not
have the effect of invalidating or voiding the remainder of this Guaranty, and
the parties hereto agree that the part or parts of this Guaranty so held to be
invalid, unenforceable or void will be deemed to have been stricken herefrom and
the remainder will have the same force and effectiveness as if such part or
parts had never been included herein.

     

    Section
14.   Captions.  The
captions in this Guaranty have been inserted for convenience only and shall be
given no substantive meaning or significance whatever in construing the terms
and provisions of this Guaranty.

     

    Section
15.   Successors and
Assigns.  This Guaranty shall (a) be binding upon the Guarantor
and its successors and assigns and (b) inure to the benefit of and be
enforceable by the Administrative Agent and its successors, transferees and
assigns; provided, however, that any
assignment by the Guarantor of its obligations hereunder shall (i) be subject to
the prior written consent of all the Lenders at their complete discretion, and
(ii) only be made to a one hundred percent (100%) owned Affiliate of the
Guarantor.

    Section
16.   Limitation by
Law. All
rights, remedies and powers provided in this Guaranty may be exercised only to
the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provision
of law, and all the provisions of this Guaranty are intended to be subject to
all applicable mandatory provisions of law which may be controlling and to be
limited to the extent necessary so that they will not render this Guaranty
invalid, unenforceable, in whole or in part, or not entitled to be recorded,
registered or filed under the provisions of any applicable law.

     

    Section
17.   Substitution of
Guaranty. Subject to the prior
written consent of all the Lenders at their complete discretion, the Guarantor
shall, during the term of this Guaranty, be permitted at its option to provide
collateral to the Administrative Agent or another form of credit support as a
substitute for its obligations under this Guaranty.  The Guarantor
agrees to execute whatever security or credit support documents the
Administrative Agent reasonably requests in order to effectuate the provisions
of this Section
17.

     

    Section
18.   GOVERNING
LAW; FOREIGN PARTY PROVISIONS.

     

    (a)           THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY,
AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW
YORK.

     

    (b)           Consent to
Jurisdiction.  The Guarantor irrevocably submits to the
non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York state or U.S. federal court sitting
in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, in any action or proceeding
relating to its obligations, liabilities or any other matter arising out of or
in connection with this Guaranty or the other Loan Documents and Transaction
Documents.  The Guarantor hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in
respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New
York state or U.S. federal court.  The Guarantor also hereby
irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection to
venue or the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any such
action or proceeding in any such court.

     

    (c)           Appointment for Agent for
Service of Process.  The Guarantor hereby (i) irrevocably
designates and appoints its chief financial officer (from time to time) at its
principal executive offices at 50 Main Street, White Plains, New York 10606 (the
“Authorized
Agent”), as its agent upon which process may be served in any suit,
action or proceeding related to this Guaranty and represents and warrants that
the Authorized Agent has accepted such designation and (ii) agrees that service
of process upon the Authorized Agent and written notice of said service to the
Guarantor mailed or delivered by a recognized international courier service
(with proof of delivery) to its Secretary or any Assistant Secretary at its
registered office at 2 Church Street, Hamilton, Bermuda, shall be deemed in
every respect effective service of process upon the Guarantor in any such suit
or proceeding.  The Guarantor further agrees to take any and all
action, including the execution and filing of any and all such documents and
instruments, as may be necessary to continue such designation and appointment of
the Authorized Agent in full force and effect so long as the Guaranty is in
existence.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        20

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    (d)           Waiver of
Immunities.  To the extent that the Guarantor or any of its
properties, assets or revenues may have or may hereafter become entitled to, or
have attributed to them, any right of immunity, on the grounds of sovereignty,
from any legal action, suit or proceeding, from set-off or counterclaim, from
the jurisdiction of any court, from service of process, from attachment upon or
prior to judgment, or from attachment in aid of execution of judgment, or from
execution of judgment, or other legal process or proceeding for the giving of
any relief or for the enforcement of any judgment, in any jurisdiction in which
proceedings may at any time be commenced, with respect to its obligations,
liabilities or any other matter under or arising out of or in connection with
this Guaranty or any other Loan Documents and Transaction Documents, the
Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, waives and agrees not to plead or claim any such immunity and
consents to such relief and enforcement.

     

    (e)           Foreign
Taxes.  Any payments by the Guarantor to the Administrative
Agent hereunder shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or
withholding for or on account of, any and all present and future income, stamp
or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or
withholdings, now or hereinafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or
assessed by Bermuda or any other jurisdiction in which the Guarantor has an
office from which payment is made or deemed to be made, excluding (i) any such
tax imposed by reason of the Administrative Agent, having some connection with
any such jurisdiction other than its participation as the Administrative Agent
under the Loan Documents and Transaction Documents, and (ii) any income or
franchise tax on the overall net income of the Administrative Agent imposed by
the United States or by the State of New York or any political subdivision of
the United States or of the State of New York on the office of the
Administrative Agent through which it is acting in connection with this
transaction (all such non-excluded taxes, “Foreign
Taxes”).  If the Guarantor is prevented by operation of law or
otherwise from paying, causing to be paid or remitting that portion of amounts
payable hereunder represented by Foreign Taxes withheld or deducted, then
amounts payable under this Guaranty shall, to the extent permitted by law, be
increased to such amount as is necessary to yield and remit to the
Administrative Agent an amount which, after deduction of all Foreign Taxes
(including all Foreign Taxes payable on such increased payments) equals the
amount that would have been payable if no Foreign Taxes
applied.  Whenever any Foreign Taxes are payable by the Guarantor, as
promptly as possible thereafter the Guarantor shall send to the Administrative
Agent for its own account or for the account of the relevant Lender, as the case
may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt received by the
Guarantor showing payment thereof.  If the Guarantor fails to pay any
Foreign Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to
the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary
evidence, the Guarantor shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the
Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure.

    (f)           Judgment
Currency.  The obligations of the Guarantor in respect of any
sum due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder 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, the Guarantor as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such
judgment, agrees to indemnify the Applicable Creditor against such
loss.  The obligations of the Guarantor contained in this Section
shall survive the termination of this Guaranty and the Credit Agreement and the
payment of all other amounts owing hereunder and thereunder.

     

    Section
19.   WAIVER OF
JURY TRIAL.  THE GUARANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND
UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING
TO THIS GUARANTY AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.

     

    Section
20.   Reinstatement. This Guaranty shall be
reinstated to the extent of payments made to the Guarantor as reimbursement of
amounts advanced by the Guarantor hereunder.  The Guarantor agrees
that this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case
may be, if at any time any part of any payment of principal of, or interest on,
the Guaranty Obligations is stayed, rescinded or must otherwise be restored by
the Administrative Agent upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of BLFC or any
other Person.

     

    Section
21.   JPMorgan Chase Conflict
Waiver.  JPMorgan Chase acts as Administrative Agent and Lender
and may provide other services or facilities from time to time (the “JPMorgan Chase
Roles”).  The Guarantor and each other party hereto
acknowledges and consents to any and all JPMorgan Chase Roles, waives any
objections it may have to any actual or potential conflict of interest caused by
JPMorgan Chase’s acting as Administrative Agent or as Lender hereunder and
acting as or maintaining any of the JPMorgan Chase Roles, and agrees that in
connection with any JPMorgan Chase Role, JPMorgan Chase may take, or refrain
from taking, any action which it in its discretion deems
appropriate.

     

    Section
22.   Setoff.  In
addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by
way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default
or a Series 2002-1 Early Amortization Event, each Lender is hereby authorized at
any time or from time to time, without notice to the Guarantor or to any other
Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived to the extent permitted by
applicable law, to set off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits
(general or special) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by
such Lender, to or for the credit or the account of the Guarantor
against

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        22

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    and on
account of the obligations and liabilities of the Guarantor to such Lender, as
applicable, under this Guaranty or any other Loan Document, including, without
limitation, all claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected
with this Guaranty or any other Loan Document, irrespective of whether or not
such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder and although said obligations,
liabilities or claims, or any of them, shall be contingent or
unmatured.

     

    If any Lender, whether by setoff
or otherwise, has payment made to it under this Guaranty or any other Loan
Document upon its Loans in a greater proportion than that received by any other
Lender, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to purchase a portion of the
Loans held by the other Lenders so that after such purchase each Lender will
hold its ratable proportion of Loans.

    The
European Commission has commenced an investigation into whether there have been
infringements of EU competition law by traders and distributors of cereals and
other agricultural products in the EU. In this regard, on July 10, 2008 the
Commission carried out inspections at the premises of a number of companies,
including at Bunge’s office in Rome, Italy. The Commission’s investigation is at
a preliminary stage and Bunge is unable at this time to predict the outcome of
these investigations, including whether the European Commission will ultimately
determine to commence formal proceedings. Bunge is cooperating with the European
Commission in relation to its investigation.

Sandler O’Neill & Partners, L.P.

Fox — Pitt Kelton Cochran Caronia Waller

c/o Sandler O’Neill & Partners, L.P.

As Representatives of the several Underwriters

Listed in Schedule I to the

Underwriting Agreement referenced below

919 Third Avenue

6th Floor

New York, New York 10022

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     The undersigned understands that you, as representatives (the “Representatives”),
propose to enter into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”), on behalf
of the several underwriters named in Schedule I to such agreement (collectively, the
“Underwriters”), with Velocity Portfolio Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
“Company”), providing for a public offering (the “Offering”) of the Company’s
common stock, $0.001 par value (the “Common Stock”), pursuant to a Registration Statement
on Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-153549) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

     In consideration of the agreement by the Underwriters to participate in the Offering, and for
other good and valuable consideration receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the undersigned
hereby agrees that (other than as set forth below), during the period beginning from and including
the date of the prospectus relating to the Offering (the “Prospectus”) and continuing
through and including the date 180 days after such date, the undersigned will not, without the
prior written consent of Sandler O’Neill & Partners, L.P., (i) sell, offer, agree to sell, contract
to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option to purchase, make any short sale or otherwise
dispose of or hedge, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible
into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, any shares of Common Stock or warrants or other rights to
purchase Common Stock or any other securities of the Company that are substantially similar to the
Common Stock, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, owned directly by the undersigned (including
holding as a custodian) or with respect to which the undersigned has or may be deemed to have
beneficial ownership in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission (collectively, the “Undersigned’s Shares”) or (ii) publicly announce an
intention to do any of the foregoing.

     The foregoing restriction is expressly agreed to preclude the undersigned from engaging in any
hedging or other transaction or arrangement that is designed to, or which reasonably could be
expected to, lead to or result in a sale, disposition or transfer, in whole or in part, of any of
the economic consequences of ownership of the Undersigned’s Shares, whether any such transaction is
to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or other securities, in cash or otherwise, even if such
shares would be disposed of by someone other than the undersigned. Such prohibited hedging or
other transactions would include, without limitation, any short sale or any purchase, sale or grant
of any right (including, without limitation, any put or call option) with respect to any of the
Undersigned’s Shares or with respect to any security that includes, relates to, or derives any
significant part of its value from the Undersigned’s Shares.

 

 

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, the undersigned may transfer the Undersigned’s Shares (i) as a
bona fide gift or gifts, provided that the donee or donees thereof agree to be bound in writing by
the restrictions set forth herein, (ii) to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the
undersigned or the immediate family of the undersigned, provided that the trustee of the trust
agrees to be bound in writing by the restrictions set forth herein, and provided further that any
such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value, or (iii) with the prior written consent of
the Sandler O’Neill & Partners, L.P., on behalf of the Underwriters. For purposes of this
Agreement, “immediate family” shall mean any relationship by blood, marriage or adoption, not more
remote than first cousin. The undersigned now has and, except as contemplated by clause (i), (ii)
or (iii) above, for the duration of this Agreement will have, good and marketable title to the
Undersigned’s Shares, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, and claims whatsoever. The
undersigned also agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company
against the transfer of the Undersigned’s Shares, except in compliance with the foregoing
restrictions. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company is hereby authorized to decline to make
any transfer of securities if such transfer would constitute a violation or breach of this
Agreement.

     If:

          (1) during the last 17 days of the 180-day restricted period the Company issues an earnings
release or material news or a material event relating to the Company occurs; or

          (2) prior to the expiration of the 180-day restricted period, the Company announces that it
will release earnings results or becomes aware that material news or a material event relating to
the Company will occur during the 16-day period beginning on the last day of the 180-day period,

the restrictions imposed by this letter shall continue to apply until the expiration of the 18-day
period beginning on the issuance of the earnings release or the occurrence of the material news or
material event.

     The undersigned further agrees that, prior to engaging in any transaction or taking any other
action that is subject to the terms of this Agreement during the period from and including the
first day of the initial 180-day restricted period referred to above through and including the 34th
day following the last day of such initial 180-day restricted period, it will give notice thereof
to the Company and will not consummate such transaction or take any such action unless it has
received written confirmation from the Company that the 180-day restricted period (as may have been
extended pursuant to the previous paragraph) has expired.

     The undersigned understands that the Company and the Underwriters are relying upon this
Agreement in proceeding toward consummation of the Offering. The undersigned represents and
warrants that the undersigned has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement. The
undersigned further understands that this Agreement is irrevocable and agrees that the provisions
of this Agreement shall be binding also upon the successors, assigns, heirs and personal
representatives of the undersigned.

     The undersigned understands that, if the Underwriting Agreement (other than the provisions
thereof which survive termination) shall terminate or be terminated prior to payment for and
delivery of the Common Stock to be sold thereunder, the undersigned shall be released from all
obligations under this Agreement.

     This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
New York.

Yours very truly,
