 THIS GUARANTY AGREEMENT (this “Guaranty Agreement”), dated as of December 23, 2004, is made by EACH OF THE UNDERSIGNED DOMESTIC
SUBSIDIARIES OF THE BORROWER AND EACH OTHER PERSON WHO SHALL BECOME A PARTY HERETO BY EXECUTION OF A GUARANTY JOINDER AGREEMENT (each a “Guarantor” and collectively the “Guarantors”) to BANK OF AMERICA,
N.A., a national banking association organized and existing under the laws of the United States, as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”) for each of the lenders (the “Lenders” now
or hereafter party to the Credit Agreement defined below (collectively with the Administrative Agent, and certain other Persons parties to Related Credit Arrangements as more particularly described in Section 19 hereof, the “Secured
Parties”). All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Credit Agreement. 
  
 W I T N E S S E T H: 
  
 WHEREAS, the Secured Parties have agreed to provide to BEARINGPOINT, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), certain
credit facilities, including a revolving credit facility with a letter of credit and swing line sublimit, pursuant to the terms of that certain Credit Agreement dated as of December 17, 2004 among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders (as from time to time amended, revised, modified, supplemented or amended and restated, the “Credit Agreement”); and 
  
 WHEREAS, each initial Guarantor is, directly or indirectly, a Domestic Subsidiary of the Borrower and will materially benefit from the Loans made
and to be made, and the Letters of Credit issued and to be issued, under the Credit Agreement; and 
  
 WHEREAS, each Guarantor is required to enter into this Guaranty Agreement pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement; and 
  
 WHEREAS, a material part of the consideration given in connection with
and as an inducement to the execution and delivery of the Credit Agreement by the Secured Parties was the obligation of the Borrower to cause each Guarantor to enter into this Guaranty Agreement, and the Secured Parties are unwilling to extend and
maintain the credit facilities provided under the Loan Documents unless the Guarantors enter into this Guaranty Agreement; 
  
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
  
 1. Guaranty. Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally,
unconditionally, absolutely, continually and irrevocably guarantees to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties the payment and performance in full of the Guaranteed Liabilities (as defined below). For all purposes of this
Guaranty Agreement, “Guaranteed Liabilities” means: (a) the Borrower’s prompt payment in full, when due or declared due and at all such times, of all Obligations and all other amounts pursuant to the terms of the Credit
Agreement, the Notes, and 

 
all other Loan Documents heretofore, now or at any time or times hereafter owing, arising, due or payable from the Borrower to any one or more of the Secured
Parties, including principal, interest, premiums and fees (including, but not limited to, loan fees and, to the extent payable pursuant to Section 10.04 of the Credit Agreement, reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Secured
Parties (“Attorney Costs”)); (b) the Borrower’s prompt, full and faithful performance, observance and discharge of each and every agreement, undertaking, covenant and provision to be performed, observed or discharged by the
Borrower under the Credit Agreement, the Notes and all other Loan Documents; and (c) the prompt payment in full by each Loan Party, when due or declared due and at all such times, of obligations and liabilities now or hereafter arising under Related
Credit Arrangements (as defined below). The Guarantors’ obligations to the Secured Parties under this Guaranty Agreement are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Guarantors’ Obligations” and, with respect to each
Guarantor individually, the “Guarantor’s Obligations”. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the liability of each Guarantor individually with respect to its Guarantor’s Obligations shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal
to the largest amount that would not render its obligations hereunder subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provisions of any applicable state Law. 
  
 Each Guarantor agrees that it is jointly and severally, directly and
primarily liable (subject to the limitation in the immediately preceding sentence) for the Guaranteed Liabilities. 
  
 The Guarantors’ Obligations are secured by various Security Instruments referred to in the Credit Agreement, including without limitation a Pledge
Agreement and a Security Agreement. 
  
 For purposes of this
Guaranty Agreement: (i) “Related Swap Contracts” means all Swap Contracts which are entered into or maintained by any Loan Party with a Lender or Affiliate of a Lender in connection with Indebtedness of the Borrower arising under
the Loan Documents and which are not prohibited by the express terms of the Loan Documents; (ii) “Related Treasury Management Arrangements” means all arrangements for the delivery of treasury management services to or for the
benefit of any Loan Party which are entered into or maintained with a Lender or Affiliate of a Lender and which are not prohibited by the express terms of the Loan Documents; and (iii) “Related Credit Arrangements” means,
collectively, Related Swap Contracts and Related Treasury Management Arrangements. 
  
 2. Payment. If the Borrower shall default in payment or performance of any of the Guaranteed Liabilities, whether principal, interest, premium, fee (including, but not limited to, loan fees and Attorney
Costs), or otherwise, when and as the same shall become due, and after expiration of any applicable grace period, whether according to the terms of the Credit Agreement, by acceleration, or otherwise, or upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Event of Default under the Credit Agreement, then any or all of the Guarantors will, upon demand thereof by the Administrative Agent, fully pay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, subject to any
restriction on each Guarantor’s Obligations set forth in Section 1 hereof, an amount equal to all the Guaranteed Liabilities then due and owing.

 3. Absolute Rights and Obligations. This is a guaranty of payment and not of collection.
The Guarantors’ Obligations under this Guaranty Agreement shall be joint and several, absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and each Guarantor hereby expressly waives, to the extent permitted by Law, any defense (other than a defense of
payment in full of all of the Obligations) to its obligations under this Guaranty Agreement and all Security Instruments to which it is a party by reason of: 
  

(a) any lack of legality, validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, of any of the Notes, of any other Loan Document, or of
any other agreement or instrument creating, providing security for, or otherwise relating to any of the Guarantors’ Obligations, any of the Guaranteed Liabilities, or any other guaranty of any of the Guaranteed Liabilities (the Loan Documents
and all such other agreements and instruments being collectively referred to as the “Related Agreements”); 
  
 (b) any action taken under any of the Related Agreements, any exercise of any right or power therein conferred, any failure or omission to
enforce any right conferred thereby, or any waiver of any covenant or condition therein provided; 
  
 (c) any acceleration of the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Liabilities, of the Guarantor’s Obligations of any other Guarantor, or
of any other obligations or liabilities of any Person under any of the Related Agreements; 
  
 (d) any release, exchange, non-perfection, lapse in perfection, disposal, deterioration in value, or impairment of any security for any of
the Guaranteed Liabilities, for any of the Guarantor’s Obligations of any Guarantor, or for any other obligations or liabilities of any Person under any of the Related Agreements; 
  
 (e) any dissolution of the Borrower or any Guarantor or any other party to a Related Agreement, or the
combination or consolidation of the Borrower or any Guarantor or any other party to a Related Agreement into or with another entity or any transfer or disposition of any assets of the Borrower or any Guarantor or any other party to a Related
Agreement; 
  
 (f) any extension (including
without limitation extensions of time for payment), renewal, amendment, restructuring or restatement of, any acceptance of late or partial payments under, or any change in the amount of any borrowings or any credit facilities available under, the
Credit Agreement, any of the Notes or any other Loan Document or any other Related Agreement, in whole or in part; 
  
 (g) the existence, addition, modification, termination, reduction or impairment of value, or release of any other guaranty (or security
therefor) of the Guaranteed Liabilities (including without limitation the Guarantor’s Obligations of any other Guarantor and obligations arising under any other Guaranty now or hereafter in effect); 
  
 (h) any waiver of, forbearance or indulgence under, or other
consent to any change in or departure from any term or provision contained in the Credit Agreement, 

  

 3 

 
any other Loan Document or any other Related Agreement, including without limitation any term pertaining to the payment or performance of any of the
Guaranteed Liabilities, any of the Guarantor’s Obligations of any other Guarantor, or any of the obligations or liabilities of any party to any other Related Agreement; 
  
 (i) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of any Guarantor) which may or
might in any manner or to any extent vary the risks of such Guarantor, or might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable defense available to, or discharge of, a surety or a guarantor, including without limitation any right to require or claim that
resort be had to the Borrower or any other Loan Party or to any collateral in respect of the Guaranteed Liabilities or Guarantors’ Obligations. 
  
 It is the express purpose and intent of the parties hereto that this Guaranty Agreement and the Guarantors’ Obligations hereunder and under each Guaranty Joinder
Agreement shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and shall not be discharged except by payment as herein provided. 
  
 4. Currency and Funds of Payment. All Guarantors’ Obligations will be paid in the currency of the primary Obligation and in immediately
available funds, regardless of any Law, regulation or decree now or hereafter in effect that might in any manner affect the Guaranteed Liabilities, or the rights of any Secured Party with respect thereto as against the Borrower, or cause or permit
to be invoked any alteration in the time, amount or manner of payment by the Borrower of any or all of the Guaranteed Liabilities. 
  
 5. Events of Default. Without limiting the provisions of Section 2 hereof, in the event that there shall occur and be continuing an
Event of Default, then notwithstanding any collateral or other security or credit support for the Guaranteed Liabilities, at the Administrative Agent’s election and upon demand therefor, the Guarantors’ Obligations shall immediately be and
become due and payable. 
  
 6. Subordination. Until
this Guaranty Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 22 hereof, each Guarantor hereby unconditionally subordinates all present and future debts, liabilities or obligations now or hereafter owing to such Guarantor (a) of the
Borrower, to the payment in full of the Guaranteed Liabilities, (b) of every other Guarantor (an “obligated guarantor”), to the payment in full of the Guarantors’ Obligations of such obligated guarantor, and (c) of each other Person
now or hereafter constituting a Loan Party, to the payment in full of the obligations of such Loan Party owing to any Secured Party and arising under the Loan Documents or the Related Credit Arrangements. All amounts due under such subordinated
debts, liabilities, or obligations shall, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, be collected and, upon written request by the Administrative Agent, paid over forthwith to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of
the Secured Parties on account of the Guaranteed Liabilities, the Guarantors’ Obligations, or such other obligations, as applicable, and, after such written request and pending such payment, shall be held by such Guarantor as agent and bailee
of the Secured Parties separate and apart from all other funds, property and accounts of such Guarantor. 
  

 4 

 7. Suits. Each Guarantor from time to time shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the
benefit of the Secured Parties, on demand, at the Administrative Agent’s Office, the Guarantors’ Obligations as they become or are declared due, and in the event such payment is not made forthwith, the Administrative Agent may proceed to
suit against any one or more or all of the Guarantors. At the Administrative Agent’s election, one or more and successive or concurrent suits may be brought hereon by the Administrative Agent against any one or more or all of the Guarantors,
whether or not suit has been commenced against the Borrower, any other Guarantor, or any other Person and whether or not the Secured Parties have taken or failed to take any other action to collect all or any portion of the Guaranteed Liabilities or
have taken or failed to take any actions against any collateral securing payment or performance of all or any portion of the Guaranteed Liabilities, and irrespective of any event, occurrence, or condition described in Section 3 hereof.

  
 8. Set-Off and Waiver. Each Guarantor waives any
right to assert against any Secured Party as a defense, counterclaim, set-off, recoupment or cross claim in respect of its Guarantor’s Obligations, any defense (legal or equitable) or other claim which such Guarantor may now or at any time
hereafter have against the Borrower or any or all of the Secured Parties without waiving any additional defenses, set-offs, counterclaims or other claims otherwise available to such Guarantor. Each Guarantor agrees that each Secured Party shall have
a lien for all the Guarantor’s Obligations upon all deposits or deposit accounts, of any kind, or any interest in any deposits or deposit accounts, now or hereafter pledged, mortgaged, transferred or assigned to such Secured Party or otherwise
in the possession or control of such Secured Party for any purpose (other than solely for safekeeping) for the account or benefit of such Guarantor, including any balance of any deposit account or of any credit of such Guarantor with the Secured
Party, whether now existing or hereafter established, and hereby authorizes each Secured Party upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default at any time or times with or without prior notice to apply such balances or any part
thereof to such of the Guarantor’s Obligations to the Secured Parties then due and in such amounts as provided for in the Credit Agreement or otherwise as they may elect. For the purposes of this Section 8, all remittances and property
shall be deemed to be in the possession of a Secured Party as soon as the same may be put in transit to it by mail or carrier or by other bailee. 
  
 9. Waiver of Notice; Subrogation. 
  
 (a) Each Guarantor hereby waives to the extent permitted by Law notice of the following events or occurrences: (i) acceptance of this
Guaranty Agreement; (ii) the Lenders’ heretofore, now or from time to time hereafter making Loans and issuing Letters of Credit and otherwise loaning monies or giving or extending credit to or for the benefit of the Borrower or any other Loan
Party, or otherwise entering into arrangements with any Loan Party giving rise to Guaranteed Liabilities, whether pursuant to the Credit Agreement or the Notes or any other Loan Document or Related Agreement or any amendments, modifications, or
supplements thereto, or replacements or extensions thereof; (iii) presentment, demand, default, non-payment, partial payment and protest; and (iv) any other event, condition, or occurrence described in Section 3 hereof. Each Guarantor agrees
that each Secured Party may heretofore, now or at any time hereafter do any or all of the foregoing in such manner, upon such terms and at such times as each 

  

 5 

 
Secured Party, in its sole and absolute discretion, deems advisable, without in any way or respect impairing, affecting, reducing or releasing such Guarantor
from its Guarantor’s Obligations, and each Guarantor hereby consents to each and all of the foregoing events or occurrences. 
  
 (b) Each Guarantor hereby agrees that payment or performance by such Guarantor of its Guarantor’s Obligations under this Guaranty
Agreement may be enforced by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties upon demand by the Administrative Agent to such Guarantor without the Administrative Agent being required, such Guarantor expressly waiving to the extent
permitted by Law any right it may have to require the Administrative Agent, to (i) prosecute collection or seek to enforce or resort to any remedies against the Borrower or any other Guarantor or any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Liabilities, or
(ii) seek to enforce or resort to any remedies with respect to any security interests, Liens or encumbrances granted to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or other party to a Related Agreement by the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other
Person on account of the Guaranteed Liabilities or any guaranty thereof, IT BEING EXPRESSLY UNDERSTOOD, ACKNOWLEDGED AND AGREED TO BY SUCH GUARANTOR THAT DEMAND UNDER THIS GUARANTY AGREEMENT MAY BE MADE BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, AND THE
PROVISIONS HEREOF ENFORCED BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, EFFECTIVE AS OF THE FIRST DATE ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT OCCURS AND IS CONTINUING UNDER THE CREDIT AGREEMENT. 
  
 (c) Each Guarantor further agrees with respect to this Guaranty Agreement that it shall have no right of
subrogation, reimbursement, contribution or indemnity, nor any right of recourse to security for the Guaranteed Liabilities unless and until 93 days immediately following the Facility Termination Date (as defined below) shall have elapsed without
the filing or commencement, by or against any Loan Party, of any state or federal action, suit, petition or proceeding seeking any reorganization, liquidation or other relief or arrangement in respect of creditors of, or the appointment of a
receiver, liquidator, trustee or conservator in respect to, such Loan Party or its assets. This waiver is expressly intended to prevent the existence of any claim in respect to such subrogation, reimbursement, contribution or indemnity by any
Guarantor against the estate of any other Loan Party within the meaning of Section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code, in the event of a subsequent case involving any other Loan Party. If an amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such rights at
any time prior to termination of this Guaranty Agreement in accordance with the provisions of Section 22 hereof, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative
Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, to be credited and applied upon the Guarantors’ Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement or otherwise as the Secured Parties may elect. The
agreements in this subsection shall survive repayment of all of the Guarantors’ Obligations, the termination or expiration of this Guaranty Agreement in any manner, including but not limited to termination in accordance with Section 22
hereof, and occurrence of the Facility Termination Date. For purposes of this Guaranty Agreement, 

  

 6 

 
“Facility Termination Date” means the date as of which all of the following shall have occurred: (a) the Borrower shall have permanently
terminated the credit facilities under the Loan Documents by final payment in full of all Outstanding Amounts, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and fees thereon, other than (i) the undrawn portion of Letters of Credit and (ii) all
letter of credit fees relating thereto accruing after such date (which fees shall be payable solely for the account of the L/C Issuer and shall be computed (based on interest rates and the Applicable Rate then in effect) on such undrawn amounts to
the respective expiry dates of the Letters of Credit), in each case as have been fully Cash Collateralized or as to which other arrangements with respect thereto satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer shall have been made; (b)
all Commitments shall have terminated or expired; (c) the obligations and liabilities of the Borrower and each other Loan Party under all Related Credit Arrangements shall have been fully, finally and irrevocably paid and satisfied in full and the
Related Credit Arrangements shall have expired or been terminated, or other arrangements satisfactory to the counterparties shall have been made with respect thereto; and (d) the Borrower and each other Loan Party shall have fully, finally and
irrevocably paid and satisfied in full all of their respective obligations and liabilities arising under the Loan Documents, including with respect to the Borrower and the Obligations (except for future obligations consisting of continuing
indemnities and other contingent Obligations of the Borrower or any Loan Party that may be owing to any Agent-Related Person or any Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents and expressly survive termination of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan
Document). 
  
 10. Effectiveness;
Enforceability. This Guaranty Agreement shall be effective as of the date first above written and shall continue in full force and effect until termination in accordance with Section 22 hereof. Any claim or claims that the Secured
Parties may at any time hereafter have against a Guarantor under this Guaranty Agreement may be asserted by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties by written notice directed to such Guarantor in accordance with Section 24
hereof. 
  
 11. Representations and Warranties. Each
Guarantor warrants and represents to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, that it is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Guaranty Agreement (or the Guaranty Joinder Agreement to which it is a party, as
applicable), and to perform its obligations under this Guaranty Agreement, that this Guaranty Agreement (or the Guaranty Joinder Agreement to which it is a party, as applicable) has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of such Guarantor by its
duly authorized representatives; that this Guaranty Agreement (and any Guaranty Joinder Agreement to which such Guarantor is a party) is legal, valid, binding and enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with its terms except as
enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar Laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles; and that such Guarantor’s execution, delivery
and performance of this Guaranty Agreement (and any Guaranty Joinder Agreement to which such Guarantor is a party) do not violate or constitute a breach of (a) any of its Organization Documents, (b) any agreement or instrument to which such
Guarantor is a party, or (c) any Law, order, regulation, decree or award of any governmental authority or arbitral body to which it or 

  

 7

Adverse Effect.

any Secured Party in whole or in part in good faith and reasonable settlement of any pending or threatened avoidance claim. 
  
 14. Attorney-in-Fact. To the extent permitted by Law, each Guarantor hereby appoints the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the
Secured Parties, as such Guarantor’s attorney-in-fact for the purposes of carrying out the provisions of this Guaranty Agreement and taking any action and executing any instrument which the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable
to accomplish the purposes hereof, which appointment is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable; provided, that the Administrative Agent shall have and may exercise rights under this power of attorney only upon the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default.

concerning the Loan Parties and the Loan Parties’ financial condition and affairs and (ii) from other reliable sources, such other information as it deems material in deciding to provide this Guaranty Agreement and any Guaranty Joinder
Agreement (“Other Information”), and has full and complete access to the Loan Parties’ books and records and to such Other Information; (b) such Guarantor is not relying on any Secured Party or its or their employees,
directors, agents or other representatives or Affiliates, to provide any such information, now or in the future; (c) such Guarantor has been furnished with and reviewed the terms of the Credit Agreement and such other Loan Documents and Related

Party has 

  

 8 

 
any duty or responsibility whatsoever, now or in the future, to provide to such Guarantor any information concerning the Borrower or the Borrower’s
financial condition and affairs, or any Other Information, other than as expressly provided herein, and that, if such Guarantor receives any such information from any Secured Party or its or their employees, directors, agents or other

 16. Rules of Interpretation. The rules of
interpretation contained in Article I of the Credit Agreement shall be applicable to this Guaranty Agreement and each Guaranty Joinder Agreement and are hereby incorporated by reference. All representations and warranties contained herein shall
survive the delivery of documents and any extension of credit referred to herein or guaranteed hereby. 
  
 17. Entire Agreement. This Guaranty Agreement and each Guaranty Joinder Agreement, together with the Credit Agreement and other Loan
Documents, constitutes and expresses the entire understanding between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior negotiations, agreements, understandings, inducements, commitments or conditions, express or
implied, oral or written, except as herein contained. The express terms hereof control and supersede any course of performance or usage of the trade inconsistent with any of the terms hereof. Except as provided in Section 22 or Section
25, neither this Guaranty Agreement nor any Guaranty Joinder Agreement nor any portion or provision hereof or thereof may be changed, altered, modified, supplemented, discharged, canceled, terminated, or amended orally or in any manner other
than as provided in the Credit Agreement. 
  
 18. Binding
Agreement; Assignment. This Guaranty Agreement, each Guaranty Joinder Agreement and the terms, covenants and conditions hereof and thereof, shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and thereto, and to their
respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns; provided, however, that, other than pursuant to a transaction that is permitted under the Credit Agreement, no Guarantor shall be permitted to assign any of its rights,
powers, duties or obligations under this Guaranty Agreement, any Guaranty Joinder Agreement or any other interest herein or therein without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing
sentence of this Section 18, any Lender may assign to one or more Persons, or grant to one or more Persons participations in or to, all or any part of its rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement (to the extent permitted by the
Credit Agreement); and to the extent of any such assignment or participation such other Person shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Lender herein or
otherwise, subject however, to the provisions of the Credit Agreement, including Article IX thereof (concerning the Administrative Agent) and Section 10.06 thereof concerning assignments and participations. All references herein to the
Administrative Agent shall include any successor thereof. 
  
 19. Related Credit Arrangements. All obligations of any Loan Party under Related Credit Arrangements to which any Lender or its Affiliates are a party shall be deemed to be 

  

 9 

 
Guaranteed Liabilities, and each Lender or Affiliate of a Lender party to any such Related Credit Arrangement shall be deemed to be a Secured Party hereunder
with respect to such Guaranteed Liabilities; provided, however, that such obligations shall cease to be Guaranteed Liabilities at such time, prior to the Facility Termination Date, as such Person (or Affiliate of such Person) shall
cease to be a “Lender” under the Credit Agreement. 
  
 No Person who obtains the benefit of this Guaranty Agreement by virtue of the provisions of this Section shall have, prior to the Facility Termination Date, any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action
hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of the Guarantors’ Obligations (including the release or modification of any Guarantors’ Obligations or security therefor) other than in its capacity as a Lender and only
to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents. Each Secured Party not a party to the Credit Agreement who obtains the benefit of this Guaranty Agreement by virtue of the provisions of this Section shall be deemed to have acknowledged and
accepted the appointment of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, and that with respect to the actions and omissions of the Administrative Agent hereunder or otherwise relating hereto that do or may affect such
Secured Party, the Administrative Agent and each Related Party of any of the foregoing shall be entitled to all the rights, benefits and immunities conferred under Article IX of the Credit Agreement. 
  
 20. Severability. The provisions of this Guaranty Agreement are
independent of and separable from each other. If any provision hereof shall for any reason be held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof, but this
Guaranty Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. 
  
 21. Counterparts. This Guaranty Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts each of which when so executed and delivered shall
be deemed an original, and it shall not be necessary in making proof of this Guaranty Agreement to produce or account for more than one such counterpart executed by the Guarantor against whom enforcement is sought. Without limiting the foregoing
provisions of this Section 21, the provisions of Section 10.10 of the Credit Agreement shall be applicable to this Guaranty Agreement. 
  
 22. Termination. (a) Subject to reinstatement pursuant to Section 13 hereof, this Guaranty Agreement and each Guaranty Joinder
Agreement, and all of the Guarantors’ Obligations hereunder (excluding those Guarantors’ obligations relating to Guaranteed Liabilities that expressly survive such termination) shall terminate on the Facility Termination Date. 

 
 (b) In the event that any Guarantor is released pursuant to the Credit
Agreement, such Guarantor shall be released from its obligations under this Guaranty Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
  
 23. Remedies Cumulative; Late Payments. All remedies hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other rights and remedies of the
Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party provided by Law or under the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents or 

  

 10 

 
other applicable agreements or instruments. The making of the Loans and other credit extensions pursuant to the Credit Agreement and other Related Agreements
shall be conclusively presumed to have been made or extended, respectively, in reliance upon each Guarantor’s guaranty of the Guaranteed Liabilities pursuant to the terms hereof. Any amounts not paid when due under this Guaranty Agreement
shall, upon the request of the Required Lenders pursuant to Section 2.09(b)(ii) of the Credit Agreement, bear interest at the Default Rate. 
  
 24. Notices. Any notice required or permitted hereunder or under any Guaranty Joinder Agreement shall be given, (a) with respect to each
Guarantor, at the address of the Borrower indicated in Schedule 10.02 of the Credit Agreement and (b) with respect to the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party, at the Administrative Agent’s address indicated in Schedule 10.02 of the
Credit Agreement. All such addresses may be modified, and all such notices shall be given and shall be effective, as provided in Section 10.02 of the Credit Agreement for the giving and effectiveness of notices and modifications of addresses
thereunder.  
  
 25. Joinder. Each Person who
shall at any time execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Guaranty Joinder Agreement substantially in the form attached as Exhibit A hereto shall thereupon irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally become a party hereto and obligated
hereunder as a Guarantor, and all references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the Guarantors or to the parties to this Guaranty Agreement shall be deemed to include such Person as a Guarantor hereunder. 
  
 26. Inconsistencies. If any provision of this
Guaranty Agreement is inconsistent with any provision in the Credit Agreement, the provision of such Credit Agreement shall govern. 
  
 27. Governing Law; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial.

WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
  
 (b) SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. EACH GUARANTOR IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY AND OF THE
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY AGREEMENT, ANY GUARANTY JOINDER AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENT, OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURT
OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN SUCH 

  

 11

 THIS AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO GUARANTY AGREEMENT (this “Amendment Agreement”) is made and entered into as of April 26, 2005 by EACH OF THE
UNDERSIGNED DOMESTIC SUBSIDIARIES OF THE BORROWER (each a “Guarantor” and collectively the “Guarantors”), and BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., as the administrative agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, the

which the Lenders agreed to make and have made available to the Borrower a revolving credit facility, including a letter of credit subfacility, in an aggregate principal amount of $300,000,000; and 
  
 WHEREAS, each Guarantor is a direct or indirect Domestic Subsidiary of

 WHEREAS, each of the Guarantors entered into that certain Guaranty Agreement dated as of December 23, 2004 (as hereby and from time to time
hereafter amended, restated, amended and restated, extended, supplemented, modified or replaced, the “Guaranty”) made to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, whereby each Guarantor guaranteed to the
Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties the payment and performance in full of the Guaranteed Liabilities (as defined in the Guaranty); and 
  

WHEREAS, the Borrower has notified the Administrative Agent that the Borrower desires (i) to terminate the Aggregate Commitments under the
Credit Agreement as of the date hereof and to provide for the occurrence of the Facility Termination Date, and (ii) to enter into a Letter of Credit Cash Collateral Agreement, dated of as April 26, 2005 (as amended, amended and restated,

and Bank of America, N.A. as Depositary of the LC Account (each term as defined therein), pursuant to which the Borrower will cash collateralize the L/C Obligations and certain other related obligations and liabilities under the Credit Agreement and
the other Loan Documents (including the LC Cash Collateral Agreement) and all fees and other charges that may become due and payable with respect to outstanding Letters of Credit; and 

 WHEREAS, the Guarantors have requested, among other things, that certain terms of the Guaranty be
amended, each in the manner set forth herein, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, are willing to effect such amendments on the terms and conditions contained in this Amendment
Agreement; and 
  
 WHEREAS, the Administrative Agent and
the Lenders are unwilling to enter into the LC Cash Collateral Agreement unless the Guarantors agree to continue to guarantee all L/C Obligations and payment obligations of the Borrower with respect to fees and other charges that may become due and
payable in connection with outstanding Letters of Credit continue in effect, and in connection therewith that the Guarantors enter into this Amendment Agreement; 
  
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and further valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of
which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows: 
  
 1. Amendments to Guaranty. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Guaranty is hereby amended as follows: 
  
 (a) Section 1 of the Guaranty is hereby amended to restate the first paragraph of such Section in its entirety to read as
follows: 
  
 2. Guaranty. Each
Guarantor hereby jointly and severally, unconditionally, absolutely, continually and irrevocably guarantees to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties the payment and performance in full of the Guaranteed Liabilities (as
defined below). For all purposes of this Guaranty Agreement, “Guaranteed Liabilities” means: (a) the Surviving Obligations (as such term is defined in the Letter of Credit Cash Collateral Agreement, dated of as April 26,
2005 (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “LC Cash Collateral Agreement”), by and among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, each of Bank of America, N.A. and JPMorgan Chase
Bank, N.A., as Issuing Banks, and Bank of America, N.A. as Depositary of the LC Account (each term as defined therein). The Guarantors’ obligations to the Secured Parties under this Guaranty Agreement are hereinafter collectively referred to as
the “Guarantors’ Obligations” and, with respect to each Guarantor individually, the “Guarantor’s Obligations”. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the liability of each Guarantor individually with respect to
its Guarantor’s Obligations shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render its obligations hereunder subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable
provisions of any applicable state Law. 
  
 (b)
Section 9 of the Guaranty is hereby amended to restate clause (c) of such Section in its entirety to read as follows: 
  
 (c) Each Guarantor further agrees with respect to this Guaranty Agreement that it shall have no right of subrogation, reimbursement,
contribution or indemnity, nor any right of recourse to security for the 

  

 - 2 - 

 
Guaranteed Liabilities unless and until 93 days immediately following the Facility Termination Date (as defined below) shall have elapsed without the filing
or commencement, by or against any Loan Party, of any state or federal action, suit, petition or proceeding seeking any reorganization, liquidation or other relief or arrangement in respect of creditors of, or the appointment of a receiver,
liquidator, trustee or conservator in respect to, such Loan Party or its assets. This waiver is expressly intended to prevent the existence of any claim in respect to such subrogation, reimbursement, contribution or indemnity by any Guarantor
against the estate of any other Loan Party within the meaning of Section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code, in the event of a subsequent case involving any other Loan Party. If an amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such rights at any
time prior to termination of this Guaranty Agreement in accordance with the provisions of Section 22 hereof, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative
Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, to be credited and applied upon the Guarantors’ Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Letter of Credit Cash Collateral Agreement dated as of April 26,
2005 or otherwise as the Secured Parties may elect. The agreements in this subsection shall survive repayment of all of the Guarantors’ Obligations, the termination or expiration of this Guaranty Agreement in any manner, including but not
limited to termination in accordance with Section 22 hereof, and occurrence of the Facility Termination Date. For purposes of this Guaranty Agreement, “Facility Termination Date” means the date on which (i) all
outstanding Letters of Credit have expired or been cancelled, (ii) all L/C Obligations and all other Secured Obligations have been paid in full, and (iii) the LC Cash Collateral Agreement shall have been permanently terminated and all
outstanding obligations and outstanding amounts thereunder, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and fees thereon, have been satisfied and paid in full. 
  
 2. Full Force and Effect of Guaranty. Except as hereby specifically amended, modified or supplemented, each Guarantor
hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Guaranty is hereby confirmed and ratified in all respects and shall remain in full force and effect according to their respective terms. 
  
 3. Representations and Warranties. (a) Each Guarantor hereby certifies that after giving effect to this
Amendment Agreement, the representations and warranties of the Guarantors contained in Section 11 of the Guaranty (i) that are qualified by materiality in any respect are true and correct on and as of the date hereof, except to the
extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct as of such date and (ii) that are not qualified by materiality in any respect are true and correct in all material
respects on and as of the date hereof, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date. 
  

 - 3 - 

 (b) Each Guarantor hereby certifies that this Amendment Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and
delivered by each Guarantor and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such parties, except as may be limited by general principles of equity or by the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or
similar law affecting creditors’ rights generally. 
  
 (c)
All the Guarantors party hereto constitute all of the Domestic Subsidiaries of the Borrower required to be Guarantors pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Payoff Letter dated as of
April 26, 2005 by Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent for the Lenders and as a Lender, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as a Lender (the “Payoff Letter”).

provided herein are subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent:

Domestic Subsidiary of the Borrower party thereto and the Administrative Agent; and

 Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Section 4,
this Amendment Agreement shall be effective as of the date hereof.

supplemented, modified or replaced), the LC Cash Collateral Agreement and all the Loan Documents (collectively, the “Relevant Documents”), sets forth the entire understanding and agreement of the parties hereto in relation to the
subject matter hereof and supersedes any prior negotiations and agreements among the parties relating to such subject matter. No promise, condition, representation or warranty, express or implied, not set forth in the Relevant Documents shall bind
