          (e) If a Loan Party is or becomes the beneficiary of a letter of credit (other than those

statements or amendments thereto if filed prior to the date hereof.

          (h) Each Loan Party shall promptly notify Agent of any Commercial Tort Claim constituting
Collateral acquired by it and, unless otherwise consented in writing by Agent, such Loan Party

Commercial Tort Claim.

          (i) From time to time, Loan Parties shall, upon Agent’s written request, execute and deliver
confirmatory written instruments pledging to Agent, for the benefit of Agent and the other Secured
Parties, the Collateral, but Loan Parties’ failure to do so shall not affect or limit any security
interest or any other Liens or rights of Agent or any other Secured Party in and to the Collateral.
So long as the Credit Agreement is in effect and until all Obligations have been fully satisfied
and the Commitments have been terminated, Agent’s security interests and other Liens, for the
benefit of the Secured Parties, shall continue in full force and effect in all Collateral (whether

prior written consent of Agent, subject to the rights of Loan Parties under Section 9-509(d)(2) of
the UCC. All UCC-1 financing statements heretofore filed with respect any of the Collateral under
the Original Security Agreement and the Amended Security Agreement shall continue in full force and

ledgers; (c) upon Agent’s written request and within a reasonable time after such request, copies
of invoices in connection with such Accounts, customer statements, credit memos, remittance advices
and reports, deposit slips, shipping and delivery documents in connection with such Accounts and
for Inventory and Equipment acquired by a Loan Party, purchase orders and invoices; (d) such other
reports as to the Collateral of the Borrowers or another Loan Party as the Agent shall reasonably
request from time to time; and (e) with the delivery of each of the foregoing, a certificate of the
Loan Parties executed by a Responsible Officer certifying as to the accuracy and completeness of
the foregoing. If any Loan Party’s records or reports of the Collateral are prepared by an
accounting service or other agent, such Loan Party hereby authorizes such service or
agent to deliver such records, reports, and related documents to the Agent, for distribution
to the Lenders.

     10. ACCOUNTS.

          (a) Each Loan Party hereby represents and warrants to the Agent and the other Secured Parties,
with respect to such Loan Party’s Accounts, that: (i) each existing Account represents, and each
future Account will represent, a bona fide sale or lease and delivery of Inventory
by such Loan Party, or rendition of services by such Loan Party, in the ordinary course of such
Loan Party’s business; (ii) each existing Account is, and each future Account will be, for a
liquidated amount payable by the Account Debtor thereon on the terms set forth in the invoice
therefor or in the schedule thereof delivered to the Agent, without any offset, deduction, defense,
or counterclaim except those known to such Loan Party and disclosed to the Agent and the other
Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement; (iii) no credit, discount, or extension, or agreement
will be granted on any Account, except for those immaterial credits, discounts or extensions
granted by such Loan Party in the ordinary course of business or consistent with past practices or
except as reported to Agent and the other Secured Parties in accordance with Section 9 of
this Agreement; (iv) each copy of an invoice delivered to Agent by a Loan Party will be a genuine
copy of the original invoice sent to the Account Debtor named therein; and (v) all Inventory
described in any invoice representing a sale of goods will have been delivered to the Account
Debtor and all services of the Loan Party described in each invoice will have been performed.

          (b) Loan Parties shall not re-date any invoice or sale, make sales on extended dating or
extend or modify any Account beyond that customary in such Loan Party’s business. If a Loan Party
becomes aware of any matter adversely affecting the collectibility of any Account with a balance in
excess of $250,000, Loan Parties shall immediately notify Agent in writing of such matter in
reasonable detail. All collections received in any lock-box or Payment Account or directly by a
Loan Party or Agent, and all funds in any Payment Account or other account to which such
collections are deposited, shall be subject to the Agent’s control pursuant to the terms of any
applicable Blocked Account Agreement. Agent or Agent’s designee may, at any time after the
occurrence of an Event of Default, notify any or all Account Debtors in writing that the Accounts
have been assigned to Agent and of Agent’s security interest therein, and may collect them directly
and charge the reasonable collection costs and expenses to the Loan Account as a Revolving Loan.
Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Loan Parties, at Agent’s
written request, shall execute and deliver to Agent such documents as Agent shall require to grant
Agent access to any post-office box in which collections of Accounts are received.

          (c) If sales of Inventory are made or services are rendered for cash, each Loan Party shall
immediately deliver to the Agent or deposit into a Payment Account the cash which such Loan Party
receives.

          (d) All payments received by the Agent in a Payment Account or at any other bank account
designated by Agent in writing, will be the Agent’s sole property for its benefit and the benefit
of the Secured Parties and will be credited to the Loan Account in accordance with Section 3.7(a)
of the Credit Agreement.

-11-

 

     12. INVENTORY; PERPETUAL INVENTORY.

          Each Loan Party represents and warrants to the Agent and the other Secured Parties and agrees
with the Agent and the other Secured Parties that all of the Inventory owned by Loan Parties is
and will be held for sale or lease, or is and will be furnished in connection with the
rendition of services, in the ordinary course of a Loan Party’s business, and is and will be fit
for such purposes. Each Loan Party agrees that all Inventory produced by it in the United States of
America will be produced in accordance with the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 and all
rules, regulations, and orders thereunder. Loan Parties will conduct a physical count of the
Inventory at least once per Fiscal Year, which may be included in any appraisal to be performed in
accordance with Section 7 hereof, and after and during the continuation of an Event of
Default, at such other times as Agent requests in writing. Each Loan Party will maintain a
perpetual inventory reporting system at all times. No Loan Party will, without Agent’s written
consent, sell any Inventory on a bill-and-hold, guaranteed sale, sale and return, sale on approval,
consignment, or other repurchase or return basis.

     13. EQUIPMENT.

          Loan Parties shall promptly inform Agent of any material additions to or deletions from the
Equipment. Loan Parties shall not permit any Equipment to become a fixture with respect to real
property or to become an accession with respect to other personal property with respect to which
real or personal property Agent does not have a Lien. Loan Parties will not, without Agent’s prior
written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), alter or remove any identifying
symbol or number on any of a Loan Party’s Equipment constituting Collateral.

     14. DOCUMENTS, INSTRUMENTS, AND CHATTEL PAPER.

          Each Loan Party represents and warrants to Agent and the other Secured Parties that (a) all
material Documents, Instruments, and Chattel Paper describing, evidencing, or constituting
Collateral, and all signatures and endorsements thereon, are and will be complete, valid, and
genuine, and (b) all Goods evidenced by such Documents, Instruments, Letter-of-Credit Rights and
Chattel Paper are and will be owned by a Loan Party, free and clear of all Liens other than
Permitted Liens.

     15. VOTING OF INVESTMENT PROPERTY.

     (a) Until Agent shall have delivered a notice contemplated by clause (b) below, each Loan
Party shall be entitled to vote or consent with respect to the Investment Property owned by it in
any manner not inconsistent with the terms of any Loan Document, and Agent will, if so requested,
execute appropriate revocable proxies therefor.

     (b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, if and to the
extent that Agent shall so notify in writing the Loan Party pledging the Investment Property in
question, only Agent shall be entitled to vote or consent or take any other action with respect to
such Investment Property (and such Loan Party will, if so requested, execute appropriate proxies
therefor).

     16. POWER OF ATTORNEY.

          Each Loan Party hereby appoints the Agent and the Agent’s designee as such Loan Party’s
attorney, with power: (a) to endorse such Loan Party’s name on any checks, notes, acceptances,
money orders, or other forms of payment or security that come into the Agent’s or any other Secured
Party’s possession; (b) to sign such Loan Party’s name on any invoice, bill of lading, warehouse
receipt or other negotiable or non-negotiable Document constituting Collateral, on drafts against

-12-

 

customers, on assignments of Accounts, on notices of assignment, financing statements and
other public records and to file any such financing statements by electronic means with or without
a signature as authorized or required by applicable law or filing procedure; (c) so long as any
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to notify the post office authorities to change
the address for delivery of such Loan Party’s mail to an address designated by the Agent and to
receive, open and dispose of all mail addressed to Loan Parties; (d) to send requests for
verification of Accounts to customers or Account Debtors; (e) upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, to complete in such Loan Party’s name or the Agent’s name, any
order, sale or transaction, obtain the necessary Documents in connection therewith, and collect the
proceeds thereof; (f) to clear Inventory through customs in such Loan Party’s name, the Agent’s
name or the name of the Agent’s designee, and to sign and deliver to customs officials powers of
attorney in such Loan Party’s name for such purpose; (g) to the extent that a Loan Party’s
authorization given in Section 3(g) of this Agreement is not sufficient, to file such
financing statements with respect to this Agreement, with or without such Loan Party’s signature,
or to file a photocopy of this Agreement in substitution for a financing statement, as the Agent
may deem appropriate and to execute in such Loan Party’s name such financing statements and
amendments thereto and continuation statements which may require such Loan Party’s signature; and
(h) to do all things necessary to carry out the Credit Agreement and this Agreement. Each Loan
Party ratifies and approves all actions of such attorney taken in accordance with the terms hereof
and the Credit Agreement. None of the Secured Parties or the Agent nor their attorneys will be
liable for any acts or omissions or for any error of judgment or mistake of fact or law except for
their gross negligence or willful misconduct. This power, being coupled with an interest, is
irrevocable until the Credit Agreement and Commitments thereunder have been terminated and the
Obligations have been paid finally and in full.

     17. THE AGENT’S AND SECURED PARTIES’ RIGHTS, DUTIES AND LIABILITIES.

          (a) Loan Parties assume all responsibility and liability arising from or relating to the use,
sale, license or other disposition of the Collateral. The Obligations shall not be affected by any
failure of the Agent or any other Secured Party to take any steps to perfect the Agent’s Liens or
to collect or realize upon the Collateral, nor shall loss of or damage to the Collateral release
the Borrowers or any other Loan Party from any of the Obligations. Following the occurrence and
during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Agent may (but shall not be required to), and
at the direction of the Required Lenders shall, without notice to or consent from Loan Parties, sue
upon or otherwise collect, extend the time for payment of, modify or amend the terms of, compromise
or settle for cash, credit, or otherwise upon any terms, grant other indulgences, extensions,
renewals, compositions, or releases, and take or omit to take any other action with respect to the
Collateral, any security therefor, any agreement relating thereto, any insurance applicable
thereto, or any Person liable directly or indirectly in connection with any of the foregoing,
without discharging or otherwise affecting the liability of any Loan Party for the Obligations or
under any Loan Document or any other agreement now or hereafter existing between the Agent and/or
any other Secured Party and the Borrowers and any other Loan Party, provided,
however, that any amounts received pursuant to any actions taken pursuant to this
Section 17(a) shall be credited, net of costs of collection, to the Obligations in
accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement.

          (b) It is expressly agreed by Loan Parties that, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, each Loan Party shall remain liable under each of its contracts and each of its
licenses (to the extent such contracts and licenses remain in effect) to observe and perform all
the

-13-

 

conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder. Neither Agent nor any
other Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under any contract or license by reason
of or arising out of this Agreement or the granting herein of a Lien thereon or the receipt by
Agent or any other Secured Party of any payment relating to any contract or license pursuant
hereto, except where Agent has expressly agreed in writing otherwise. Neither Agent nor any other
Secured Party shall be required or obligated in any manner to perform or fulfill any of the
obligations of any Loan Party under or pursuant to any contract or license, or to make any payment,
or to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or the
sufficiency of any performance by any party under any contract or license, or to present or file
any claims, or to take any action to collect or enforce any performance or the payment of any
amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.

          (c) Agent may at any time after an Event of Default has occurred and be continuing (or if any
rights of set-off (other than set-offs against an Account arising under the contract giving rise to
the same Account) or contra accounts may be asserted with respect to the following), without prior
notice to Loan Parties, notify Account Debtors, and other Persons obligated on the Collateral that
Agent has a security interest therein, and that payments shall be made directly to Agent, for
itself and the benefit of Secured Parties. Upon the request of Agent, each Loan Party shall so
notify their respective Account Debtors and other Persons obligated on Collateral. Once any such
notice has been given to any Account Debtor or other Person obligated on the Collateral, Loan
Parties shall not give any contrary instructions to such Account Debtor or other Person without
Agent’s prior written consent.

          (d) Agent may at any time, in Agent’s own name or in the name of a Loan Party, communicate
with Account Debtors, parties to contracts and Loan Parties in respect of Instruments to verify
with such Persons, to Agent’s satisfaction, the existence, amount and terms of Accounts, Payment
Intangibles, Instruments or Chattel Paper. If a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing, Loan Parties, at their own expense, shall cause the independent certified public
accountants then engaged by such Loan Parties to prepare and deliver to Agent and each Lender at
any time and from time to time, promptly upon Agent’s request, the following reports with respect
to each Loan Party: (i) a reconciliation of all Accounts; (ii) an aging of all Accounts; (iii)
trial balances; and (iv) a test verification of such Accounts as Agent may request. Loan Parties,
at their own expense, shall deliver to Agent the results of each physical verification, if any,
which any Loan Party may in its discretion have made, or caused any other Person to have made on
its behalf, of all or any portion of its Inventory.

     18. PATENT, TRADEMARK AND COPYRIGHT COLLATERAL.

          (a) Loan Parties do not have any interest in, or title to, any issued patent, registered
trademark or copyright except as set forth in Schedule III hereto. This Agreement is
effective to create a valid and continuing Lien on and, upon filing of notifications of Agent’s
Liens with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, perfected Liens in favor of Agent with
respect to each Loan Party’s issued patents and registered trademarks and such perfected Liens are
enforceable as such as against any and all creditors of and purchasers from Loan Parties. Upon
filing of notifications of Agent’s Liens with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the
filing of appropriate financing statements, all actions necessary or desirable to protect and
perfect Agent’s Lien on the issued patents or registered trademarks of each Loan Party shall have
been duly taken.

-14-

 

          (b) The applicable Loan Party shall notify Agent immediately if it knows or has reason to know
that any application or registration relating to any patent or trademark (now or
hereafter existing) may become abandoned or dedicated, or subject to any adverse determination
(including such determination in the United States Patent and Trademark Office or any court)
regarding a Loan Party’s ownership of any material patent, trademark or copyright, its right to
register the same, or to keep and maintain the same.

          (c) Within forty-five (45) days after the last day of each Fiscal Quarter of Loan Parties,
Loan Parties shall deliver to the Agent a schedule setting forth all material applications for the
registration of any patent, trademark or copyright with the United States Patent and Trademark
Office, the United States Copyright Office or any similar office or agency and, upon request of
Agent, Loan Parties shall execute and deliver any and all patent and trademark security agreements
and all copyright security agreements as Agent may request to evidence Agent’s Lien on such
patents, trademarks or copyrights, and the General Intangibles of any Loan Party relating thereto
or represented thereby.

          (d) Loan Parties shall take all actions reasonably necessary to maintain and pursue each
application, to obtain the relevant registration and to maintain the registration of each of the
patents, trademarks and copyrights material to the conduct of a Loan Party’s business or operations
(now or hereafter existing), including the filing of applications for renewal, affidavits of use,
affidavits of noncontestability and opposition and interference and cancellation proceedings,
unless the Loan Parties shall determine that such patent, trademark or copyright is not material to
the conduct of a Loan Party’s business.

          (e) In the event that any of the patent, trademark or copyright Collateral material to the
conduct of a Loan Party’s business or operations is infringed upon, or misappropriated or diluted
by a third party, Loan Parties shall notify Agent promptly after any Loan Party learns thereof.
Each Loan Party shall, unless it shall reasonably determine that such patent, trademark or
copyright Collateral is not material to the conduct of such Loan Party’s business or operations,
promptly attempt to negotiate with such infringing party or sue for infringement, misappropriation
or dilution and to recover any and all damages for such infringement, misappropriation or dilution,
and, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, shall take such other
actions as Agent shall deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such patent, trademark
or copyright Collateral.

     19. INDEMNIFICATION.

          In any suit, proceeding or action brought by Agent or any other Secured Party relating to any
Collateral for any sum owing with respect thereto or to enforce any rights or claims with respect
thereto, Loan Parties, jointly and severally, will save, indemnify and keep Agent and the other
Secured Parties harmless from and against all expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and
expenses), loss or damage suffered by reason of any defense, setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or
reduction of liability whatsoever of the Account Debtor or other Person obligated on the
Collateral, arising out of a breach by a Loan Party of any obligation thereunder or arising out of
any other agreement, indebtedness or liability at any time owing to, or in favor of, such Loan
Party or its successors from a Loan Party, except in the case of Agent or any other Secured Party,
to the extent such expense, loss, or damage is attributable solely to the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of Agent or such other Secured Party as finally determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction. All such obligations of Loan Parties shall be and remain enforceable
against and only against Loan Parties and shall not be enforceable against Agent or any other
Secured Party.

-15-

 

     20. [RESERVED].

     21. NOTICE REGARDING COLLATERAL.

          Loan Parties will advise Agent promptly, in reasonable detail, (i) of any Lien (other than
Permitted Liens) or material claim made or asserted against any of the Collateral, and (ii) of the
occurrence of any other event which would have a Material Adverse Effect.

     22. REMEDIES; RIGHTS UPON DEFAULT.

          (a) In addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it under this Agreement, the
Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and under any other instrument or agreement securing,
evidencing or relating to any of the Obligations, if any Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing, Agent may exercise all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, Loan Parties expressly agree that in any such event
Agent, without demand of performance or other demand, advertisement or notice of any kind (except
the notice specified below of time and place of public or private sale) to or upon a Loan Party or
any other Person (all and each of which demands, advertisements and notices are hereby expressly
waived to the maximum extent permitted by the UCC and other applicable law), may forthwith enter
upon the premises of any Loan Party where any Collateral is located through self-help, without
judicial process, without first obtaining a final judgment or giving a Loan Party or any other
Person notice and opportunity for a hearing on Agent’s claim or action and may collect, receive,
assemble, process, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and may
forthwith sell, lease, license, assign, give an option or options to purchase, or sell or otherwise
dispose of and deliver said Collateral (or contract to do so), or any part thereof, in one or more
parcels at a public or private sale or sales, at any exchange at such prices as it may deem
acceptable, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk.
Agent or any other Secured Party shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales and, to
the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase for the benefit of
Agent and the other Secured Parties, the whole or any part of said Collateral so sold, free of any
right or equity of redemption, which equity of redemption each Loan Party hereby releases. Such
sales may be adjourned and continued from time to time with or without notice. Agent shall have the
right to conduct such sales on the premises of any Loan Party or elsewhere and shall have the right
to use any Loan Party’s premises without charge for such time or times as Agent deems necessary or
advisable.

          (b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Loan Party
further agrees, at Agent’s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to Agent at a
place or places designated by Agent which are reasonably convenient to Agent and Loan Parties,
whether at a Loan Party’s premises or elsewhere. Until Agent is able to effect a sale, lease, or
other disposition of Collateral, Agent shall have the right to hold or use Collateral, or any part
thereof, to the extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of preserving Collateral or its
value or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by Agent. Agent shall have no obligation to any
Loan Party to maintain or preserve the rights of a Loan Party as against third parties with respect
to Collateral while Collateral is in the possession of Agent. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, Agent may, if it so elects, seek the appointment of one or more
receivers or other custodians to take possession of any or all of the Collateral and to enforce any
of Agent’s remedies (for the benefit of Agent and the other Secured Parties) with respect to any
such appointment without prior notice or hearing as to any such appointment. Upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any such

-16-

 

collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale to the Obligations as
provided in the Credit Agreement, and only after so paying over such net proceeds, and after the
payment by Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law, need Agent account for the
surplus, if any, to Loan Parties. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Loan Party waives all claims,
damages, and demands against Agent or any other Secured Party arising out of the repossession,
retention or sale of the Collateral except such as arise solely out of the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of Agent or such other Secured Party as finally determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction. Each Loan Party agrees that ten (10) days prior notice by Agent of the time
and place of any public sale or of the time after which a private sale may take place is reasonable
notification of such matters. Loan Parties shall remain jointly and severally liable for any
deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all
Obligations, including reasonable attorneys’ fees or other expenses incurred by Agent or any other
Secured Party to collect such deficiency.

          (c) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, each Loan Party hereby waives
presentment, demand, protest or any notice (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law) of
any kind in connection with this Agreement or any Collateral.

          (d) The net cash proceeds resulting from the collection, liquidation, sale, lease or other
disposition of the Collateral shall be applied first to the expenses (including all attorneys’
fees) of retaking, holding, storing, processing and preparing for sale, selling, collecting,
liquidating and the like, and then to the satisfaction of all Obligations in accordance with the
terms of the Credit Agreement. Each Loan Party shall be liable to Agent and the other Secured
Parties and shall pay to Agent and the other Secured Parties, on demand, any deficiency which may
remain after such sale, disposition, collection or liquidation of the Collateral. Agent shall remit
to such Loan Parties or other Person entitled thereto any surplus remaining after this Agreement
has been terminated in accordance with Section 27(f) hereof.

          (e) If an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement has occurred and is continuing: (i)
Agent shall have for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in addition to all other rights of Agent
and the other Secured Parties, the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Loan Documents
and the UCC; and (ii) Agent may sell and deliver any Collateral at public or private sales, for
cash, upon credit or otherwise, at such prices and upon such terms as Agent deems advisable, in its
sole discretion, and may, if Agent deems it reasonable, postpone or adjourn any sale of the
Collateral by an announcement at the time and place of sale or of such postponed or adjourned sale
without giving a new notice of sale. Without in any way requiring notice to be given in the
following manner, each Loan Party agrees that any notice by Agent of sale, disposition or other
intended action hereunder or in connection herewith, whether required by the UCC or otherwise,
shall constitute reasonable notice to each Loan Party if such notice is mailed by registered or
certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or is delivered personally against
receipt, at least ten (10) days prior to such action to Applica’s address specified in or pursuant
to Section 14.8 of the Credit Agreement. If any Collateral is sold on terms other than payment in
full at the time of sale, no credit shall be given against the Obligations until Agent or the other
Secured Parties receive payment, and if the buyer defaults in payment, Agent may resell the
Collateral without further notice to the Loan Parties. Agent is hereby granted a license or other
right to use, without charge, each Loan Party’s labels, patents, copyrights, name, trade secrets,
trade names, trademarks, and advertising matter, or any similar property, in completing production
of, advertising or selling any Collateral,
and each Loan Party’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to
Agent’s benefit for such purpose.

-17-

 

     23. GRANT OF LICENSE TO USE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY.

          For the purpose of enabling the Agent to exercise rights and remedies under Section 22
hereof (including, without limiting the terms of Section 22 hereof, in order to take
possession of, hold, preserve, process, assemble, prepare for sale, market for sale, sell or
otherwise dispose of Collateral), solely for such purpose and solely during such time as Agent
shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, each Loan Party hereby grants to
Agent, for the benefit of Agent and the other Secured Parties, a nonexclusive license (which shall
be irrevocable for so long as any Obligations remain outstanding and which shall be exercisable
without payment of royalty or other compensation to Loan Parties or any other Person) to use,
license or sublicense any intellectual property now owned or hereafter acquired by a Loan Party,
and wherever the same may be located, and including in such license access to all media in which
any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs used
for the compilation or printout thereof.

     24. LIMITATION ON AGENT’S AND SECURED PARTIES’ DUTY IN RESPECT OF COLLATERAL.

          The Agent and each other Secured Party shall use reasonable care with respect to the
Collateral in its possession or under its control. Neither the Agent nor any other Secured Party
shall have any other duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or
control of any agent or nominee of the Agent or such other Secured Party, or any income thereon or
as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto.

     25. AMENDMENT AND RESTATEMENT

          This Agreement amends and restates the Amended Security Agreement and is not intended to
create or result in a novation or accord and satisfaction. The terms of the Amended Security
Agreement, together with all rights, duties, remedies and covenants thereunder and the grant of
each security interest thereunder, shall continue in full force and effect in this Agreement, which
shall constitute the entire understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter
hereof. This Agreement is intended to confirm and continue in favor of Agent and the other Secured
Parties the security interests granted pursuant to the Amended Security Agreement in the
“Collateral” described therein, all of which security interests shall continue in full force and
effect pursuant to this Agreement, and this Agreement is not intended to grant a new security
interest in any Collateral with respect to which a security interest was previously granted by Loan
Parties pursuant to the Amended Security Agreement. If and to the extent that any types or items
of property included within the definition of “Collateral” as defined in this Agreement is broader
or more expansive than the description of “Collateral” as defined in the Amended Security Agreement
or the Collateral as described herein includes property in which a Loan Party had not previously
granted a security interest to Agent under the Original Security Agreement, then this Agreement
shall grant a new security interest in such additional types or items of property.

-18-

 

     26. DELIVERY OF COLLATERAL; ADDITIONAL DEBT INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT.

          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, to the extent that Agent’s security
interest in any tangible Collateral consisting of negotiable Documents, certificated securities,
Chattel Paper and Instruments granted hereunder is perfected in favor of, or for the benefit of,
Agent by the delivery of any such Collateral to another Person pursuant to Section 10 of the
Additional Debt Intercreditor Agreement, then for so long as such perfection is maintained
thereunder, and such Additional Debt Intercreditor Agreement remains in effect, no separate
delivery to Agent of such Collateral shall be required hereunder. In addition to the foregoing,
all terms, conditions and provisions of the Agreement shall be subject to the Additional Debt
Intercreditor Agreement, so long as the Additional Debt Intercreditor Agreement remains in effect,
and in the event that any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement conflict with the terms or
provisions of the Additional Debt Intercreditor Agreement, and at such time the Additional Debt
Intercreditor Agreement remains in effect, then the terms and provisions of the Additional Debt
Intercreditor Agreement shall control pursuant to Section 21 of the Additional Debt Intercreditor
Agreement.

     27. MISCELLANEOUS.

          (a) Reinstatement. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue
to be effective should any petition be filed by or against a Borrower or any other Loan Party for
liquidation or reorganization, should a Borrower or any other Loan Party become insolvent or make
an assignment for the benefit of any creditor or creditors or should a receiver or trustee be
appointed for all or any significant part of any Loan Party’s assets, and shall continue to be
effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the
Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount,
or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Obligations, whether as a “voidable
preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had
not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored
or returned, the Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and
not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

          (b) Notices. Except as otherwise provided herein, whenever it is provided herein that
any notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall or may be
given to or served upon any of the parties by any other party, or whenever any of the parties
desires to give and serve upon any other party any communication with respect to this Agreement,
each such notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall be
in writing and shall be given in the manner, and deemed received, as provided for in the Credit
Agreement and in Section 22(e) hereof.

          (c) Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be
interpreted in a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of
this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be
ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of
such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement. This Agreement is to be read,
construed and applied together with the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents which, taken
together, set forth the complete understanding and agreement of the Agent, the other Secured
Parties and Loan Parties with respect to the matters referred to herein and therein.

-19-

 

          (d) No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. Neither the Agent nor any other Secured Party
shall by any act, delay, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any of its rights or
remedies hereunder, and no waiver shall be valid unless in writing, signed by the Agent and then
only to the extent therein set forth. A waiver by the Agent of any right or remedy hereunder on any
one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Agent would otherwise
have had on any future occasion. No failure to exercise nor any delay in exercising on the part of
the Agent or any other Secured Party, any right, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a
waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder
preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or
privilege. The rights and remedies hereunder provided are cumulative and may be exercised singly or
concurrently, and are not exclusive of any rights and remedies provided by law. None of the terms
or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, altered, modified or amended except by an instrument
in writing, duly executed by the Agent and Loan Parties.

          (e) Limitation by Law. All rights, remedies and powers provided in this Agreement 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 Agreement are intended to be subject to all applicable
mandatory provisions of law that may be controlling in accordance with Section 27(c) above.

          (f) Termination of this Agreement. Subject to Section 27(a) hereof, this
Agreement shall terminate upon the termination of all Commitments, the satisfactory cash
collateralization of all Letters of Credit and the payment in full of all other Obligations (other
than contingent Obligations for indemnification as to which no claim has been asserted and to the
extent necessary to satisfy the requirements of the last sentence of Section 22(d) hereof).
Notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, such termination shall not operate to terminate
any indemnification obligation of any Loan Party under this Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents, all of which indemnification obligations shall survive any such termination.

          (g) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon Loan Parties and
their respective successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Agent and the other
Secured Parties (including each Person who hereafter becomes a Lender under the Credit Agreement)
and their respective successors and assigns. No sales of participations, other sales, assignments,
transfers or other dispositions of any agreement governing or any instrument evidencing the
Obligations or any portion thereof or interest therein shall in any manner affect the security
interests and Liens granted hereunder to the Agent, for the benefit of the Agent and the other
Secured Parties. No Loan Party may assign, sell, hypothecate or otherwise transfer any interest in
or obligation under this Agreement.

          (h) Counterparts. This Agreement may be authenticated in any number of separate
counterparts, including facsimile copies, each of which shall collectively and separately
constitute one and the same agreement. This Agreement may be authenticated by manual signature,
facsimile or, if approved in writing by Agent, electronic means, all of which shall be equally
valid.

          (i) Release. At the request and sole expense of any Loan Party following any
termination of this Agreement as set forth in Section 27(f) of this Agreement, the Secured
Parties shall deliver to such Loan Party any Collateral held by the Secured Parties hereunder and
execute and deliver to such Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party shall reasonably request
to evidence such termination.

-20-

 

          If any of the Collateral shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by any Loan Party
to a Person other than a Loan Party in a transaction expressly permitted by the Credit Agreement,
the Secured Parties, at the request and sole expense of such Loan Party, shall execute and deliver
to such Loan Party all releases or other documents reasonably necessary or desirable for the
release of the Liens created hereby on such Collateral; provided, that Loan Parties shall have
delivered to the Secured Parties at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date of the proposed
release, a written request for release identifying the relevant Collateral and the terms of the
sale or other disposition in reasonable detail, including the price thereof and any expenses in
connection therewith, together with a certification by Loan Parties stating that such transaction
has satisfied the conditions of, and is otherwise in compliance with, the Credit Agreement and the
other Loan Documents.

          Upon the written request and at the sole expense of a Loan Party, Agent shall release such
Loan Party from its obligations hereunder in the event that all of the capital stock of such Loan
Party has been sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of to a person other than another Loan Party
pursuant to a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement. Notwithstanding any such release of a
Loan Party from this Agreement, unless otherwise agreed to by Agent in writing, all of the
indemnification provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall survive and
continue in full force and effect with respect to such Loan Party.

          (j) Governing Law; Forum; Service of Process. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED
IN ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, IN ALL RESPECTS, INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND
PERFORMANCE, THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OBLIGATIONS ARISING HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND
CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO
CONTRACTS MADE AND PERFORMED IN THAT STATE, AND ANY APPLICABLE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF
AMERICA. EACH LOAN PARTY HEREBY CONSENTS AND AGREES THAT THE STATE OR FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN
STATES OF NEW YORK, FLORIDA OR GEORGIA SHALL HAVE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE
ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN LOAN PARTIES, AGENT AND THE OTHER SECURED PARTIES PERTAINING TO THIS
AGREEMENT OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENTS, PROVIDED, THAT AGENT, THE OTHER SECURED PARTIES AND LOAN PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE
THAT ANY APPEALS FROM THOSE COURTS MAY HAVE TO BE HEARD BY A COURT LOCATED OUTSIDE OF THE STATES OF
NEW YORK, FLORIDA OR GEORGIA AND, PROVIDED, FURTHER, NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT
SHALL BE DEEMED OR OPERATE TO PRECLUDE AGENT FROM BRINGING SUIT OR TAKING OTHER LEGAL ACTION IN ANY
OTHER JURISDICTION TO REALIZE ON THE COLLATERAL OR ANY OTHER SECURITY FOR THE OBLIGATIONS, OR TO
ENFORCE A JUDGMENT OR OTHER COURT ORDER IN FAVOR OF AGENT OR ANY OTHER SECURED PARTY. EACH LOAN
PARTY EXPRESSLY SUBMITS AND CONSENTS IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR SUIT
COMMENCED IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND EACH LOAN PARTY HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY HAVE
BASED UPON LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION, IMPROPER VENUE OR FORUM NON
CONVENIENS AND HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE GRANTING OF SUCH LEGAL OR EQUITABLE RELIEF AS IS
DEEMED APPROPRIATE BY SUCH COURT. EACH LOAN PARTY HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF THE SUMMONS,
COMPLAINT AND OTHER PROCESS ISSUED IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR SUIT AND AGREES THAT SERVICE OF SUCH
SUMMONS, COMPLAINTS AND OTHER PROCESS MAY BE

-21-

 

MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL ADDRESSED TO LOAN
PARTIES AT THE ADDRESS FOR BORROWER AGENT SET FORTH IN THE CREDIT AGREEMENT AND THAT SERVICE SO
MADE SHALL BE DEEMED COMPLETED UPON THE EARLIER OF ACTUAL RECEIPT THEREOF OR THREE (3) DAYS AFTER
DEPOSIT IN THE U.S. MAILS,
PROPER POSTAGE PREPAID. EACH LOAN PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY DESIGNATES AND APPOINTS BORROWER
AGENT AS SUCH LOAN PARTY’S AGENT FOR SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR OTHER PROCEEDING
INITIATED BY AGENT OR ANY OTHER SECURED PARTY AGAINST SUCH LOAN PARTY.

          (j) Waiver of Jury Trial. BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX
FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND EXPERT
PERSON AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY (RATHER THAN ARBITRATION
RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT DISPUTES ARISING HEREUNDER OR RELATING HERETO BE RESOLVED BY A
JUDGE APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF
THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY
ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR
OTHERWISE, AMONG AGENT, THE OTHER SECURED PARTIES, AND LOAN PARTIES ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH,
RELATED TO, OR INCIDENTAL TO THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED IN CONNECTION WITH, THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY
OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO.

          (k) Section Titles. The Section titles contained in this Agreement are and shall be
without substantive meaning or content of any kind whatsoever and are not a part of the agreement
between the parties hereto.

          (1) No Strict Construction. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the
negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or
interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties
hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by
virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement.

          (m) Advice of Counsel. Each of the parties represents to each other party hereto that
it has discussed this Agreement, and specifically, the provisions of Section 27(i) and
Section 27(j) hereof, with its counsel.

          (n) Benefit of Secured Parties. All Liens granted or contemplated hereby shall be for
the benefit of Agent, Lenders and the other Secured Parties, and all proceeds or payments realized
from Collateral in accordance herewith shall be applied to the Obligations in accordance with the
terms of the Credit Agreement.

Exhibit 10.3

SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED STOCK PLEDGE AGREEMENT

     THIS SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED STOCK PLEDGE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered
into as of December 28, 2007, between the Pledgors identified below (individually referred to as a
“Pledgor” and collectively as the “Pledgors”), and BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., a national banking
association, in its capacity as collateral and administrative agent (in such capacity, together
with its successors in such capacity, the “Agent”) for each of the financial institutions (the
“Lenders” and collectively with the Agent, the “Secured Parties”) now or hereafter party to the
Credit Agreement (as defined below).

Recitals:

     Agent, Lenders, Applica Incorporated, a Florida corporation (“Applica”), Salton, Inc.,
a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), APN Holding Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation and
successor-by-merger to SFP Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“APN”), Applica Consumer
Products, Inc., a Florida corporation (“ACP”), Applica Americas, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (“Applica Americas”), HP Delaware, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“HP
Delaware”), HPG LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“HPG”), Applica Mexico
Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Applica Mexico”), Sonex International Corporation,
a Delaware corporation (“Sonex”), Home Creations Direct Ltd., a Delaware corporation
(“HCD”), Salton Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“SHI”), Icebox, LLC, an
Illinois limited liability company (“Icebox”), Toastmaster Inc., a Missouri corporation
(“Toastmaster”), Family Products Inc., Delaware corporation (“Family Products”),
One:One Coffee LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“One Coffee”), and Salton
Toastmaster Logistics LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“STL”; Applica, Parent,
APN, ACP, Applica Americas, HP Delware, HPG, Applica Mexico, Sonex, HCD, SHI, Icebox, Toastmaster,
Family Products, One Coffee and STL being hereinafter referred to individually as a “Borrower” and
collectively as “Borrowers”), and certain other entities are parties to a Third Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement dated as of December 28, 2007 (as at any time amended, modified, restated
renewed or extended, the “Credit Agreement”), which amends and restates a certain Second Amended
and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of December 23, 2005 among certain of the parties (as
amended, restated, modified or supplemented prior to the date hereof the “Prior Credit Agreement”).
Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, Lenders have agreed to make loans and other extensions of credit
to or for the benefit of Borrowers on the terms and subject to all of the conditions set forth in
the Credit Agreement. Capitalized terms used in these Recitals and elsewhere in this Agreement,
unless otherwise defined, shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Credit Agreement.

     Pursuant to an Amended and Restated Stock Pledge Agreement dated as of December 23, 2005 (as
amended restated, modified or supplemented prior to the date hereof, the “Existing Stock Pledge”),
certain Pledgors pledged certain capital stock and equity interests to Agent, for the benefit of
Secured Parties, to secure the payment of all liabilities and obligations of Applica to Agent and
Lenders under the Prior Credit Agreement and related documents.

     As a condition to their extension of any credit to Borrowers under the Credit Agreement,
Secured Parties have required that Applica and the other Pledgors agree to amend and restate the
Existing Stock Pledge so that, as so amended and restated, the Existing Stock Pledge will read as
hereinafter set forth. To induce each of the Secured Parties to extend credit to Borrowers under
the Credit Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof (which extensions of credit inure to the
direct and indirect benefit of all Pledgors), Pledgors have agree to execute and deliver this
Agreement.

 

 

     Each Pledgor acknowledges that it will materially benefit from the loans and advances to be
made and the letters of credit to be issued under the Credit Agreement;

Agreement:

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

     1. Pledge and Grant of Security Interest.

          1.1. As collateral security for the payment and performance of all debts, obligations or
liabilities under the Guaranty and of all of the Obligations under (and as defined in) the Credit
Agreement (collectively, the “Secured Obligations”), and subject to Section 10 hereof, each
Pledgor hereby pledges and collaterally assigns to the Agent for the benefit of Secured Parties,
and grants to the Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in all of such
Pledgor’s right, title and interest in and to the following:

     (a) all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock now or hereafter owned by
such Pledgor with respect to each of its Domestic Subsidiaries and 65% of all issued and
outstanding shares of stock of each of such Pledgor’s current and future Direct Foreign
Subsidiaries, all such Domestic Subsidiaries and Direct Foreign Subsidiaries as of the date
hereof (and outstanding shares) being identified on Schedule I hereto (collectively
referred to as the “Pledged Interests”);

     (b) all cash, securities, dividends, rights, interests and other property at any time
and from time to time declared or distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of
the Pledged Interests; and

     (c) all other property hereafter delivered to the Agent in substitution for or in
addition to any of the foregoing, all certificates and instruments representing or
evidencing such property and all cash, securities, interest, dividends, rights, and other
property at any time and from time to time declared or distributed in respect of or in
exchange for any or all of the Pledged Interests.

All such Pledged Interests, certificates, instruments, cash, securities, interest, dividends,
rights and other property referred to in this Section 1 are herein collectively referred to
as the “Collateral.” All of the Pledged Interests are owned by the respective Pledgors and
represented by the stock certificates listed on Schedule I hereto. There have been
delivered to the Agent with respect to all the certificated Pledged Interests existing on the date
hereof, certificates evidencing such Pledged Interests, together with undated stock powers or other
transfer instruments duly executed in blank by the Pledgor.

     1.2. The Pledgor agrees to deliver all the Collateral to the Agent at such location as the
Agent shall from time to time designate by written notice pursuant to Section 19 hereof for
its custody at all times until termination of this Agreement, together with such instruments of
assignment and transfer as requested by the Agent.

2

 

     1.3. All advances, charges, costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys’ fees, incurred or paid by the Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power
or remedy conferred by this Agreement, or in the enforcement thereof, shall become a part of
the Secured Obligations secured hereunder and shall be paid to the Agent for the benefit of Secured
Parties by each Pledgor immediately upon demand therefor, with interest thereon until paid in full
at the Base Rate.

     2. Status of Pledged Interests.

     Each Pledgor hereby represents and warrants to the Secured Parties that (a) all of the shares
of the Pledged Interests are validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable and
constitute (i) all the issued and outstanding shares of voting stock of each Domestic Subsidiary,
and (ii) 65% of all of the issued and outstanding voting stock of the Direct Foreign Subsidiaries,
all as set forth on Schedule I hereto, (b) each Pledgor is the registered and record and
beneficial owner of its Pledged Interests, free and clear of all Liens, charges, equities,
encumbrances and restrictions on pledge or transfer (other than the pledge hereunder and under the
Loan Documents and the pledge under the Additional Debt Documents and applicable restrictions
pursuant to federal and state securities laws), (c) such Pledgor has full corporate power, legal
right and lawful authority to execute this Agreement and to pledge, assign and transfer its Pledged
Interests in the manner and form hereof, and (d) the pledge, assignment and delivery of its Pledged
Interests to the Agent for the benefit of Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement creates a
valid and perfected first priority security interest in such Pledged Interests (subject only to
those Permitted Liens, if any, permitted under the Loan Documents to have priority over Agent’s
security interest), securing the payment of the Secured Obligations, assuming continuous and
uninterrupted possession thereof by the Agent. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in
the Credit Agreement, none of the Pledged Interests (nor any interest therein or thereto) shall be
sold, transferred or assigned without the Agent’s prior written consent, which may be withheld for
any reason. Each Pledgor covenants with the Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties that it
shall at all times cause its Pledged Interests (other than the partnership interests) to be
represented by the certificates now and hereafter delivered to the Agent in accordance with
Section 1 hereof and that it shall cause each of its Subsidiaries not to issue any capital
stock, or securities convertible into capital stock, at any time during the term of this Agreement
other than to a Borrower or Guarantor who shall immediately pledge such additional capital stock to
the Agent on substantially identical terms as are contained herein. Each Pledgor hereby agrees not
to enter into any agreement requiring that the voting rights associated with the Pledged Interests
be exercised in any particular manner nor grant any interest in or permit to exist any Lien,
charge, or encumbrance (other than Permitted Liens) or restriction with respect to the Pledged
Interests (other than applicable restrictions pursuant to federal and state securities laws).

     3. Preservation and Protection of Collateral.

          3.1. No Secured Party shall be under any duty or liability with respect to the collection,
protection or preservation of the Collateral, or otherwise, beyond the use of reasonable care in
the custody and preservation thereof while in its possession.

          3.2. Each Pledgor agrees to pay when due all taxes, charges, Liens and assessments against the
Collateral, unless being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted
and against which adequate reserves have been established in accordance with GAAP. Upon the
failure of any Pledgor to so pay or contest such taxes, charges, Liens or assessments, the Agent at
its option may pay or contest any of them (the Agent having the sole right to determine the
legality or validity and the amount necessary to discharge such taxes, charges, Liens or
assessments).

3

 

     4. Default.

          If any of the Secured Obligations are not paid as of the end of the Business Day on which such
Secured Obligations become due and payable and after the expiration of all grace or cure periods,
if any, and all extensions or waivers, if any, and should such failure to pay continue, or should
any other Event of Default set forth in the Credit Agreement occur and be continuing, or should any
Pledgor fail otherwise to comply with the terms hereof (any of the foregoing an “Event of
Default”), the Agent is given full power and authority, then or at any time thereafter, to sell,
assign and deliver or collect the whole or any part of the Collateral, or any substitute therefor
or any addition thereto, in one or more sales, with or without any previous demands or demand of
performance or, to the extent permitted by law, notice or advertisement, in such order as the Agent
may elect; and any such sale may be made either at public or private sale at the Agent’s place of
business or elsewhere, either for cash or upon credit or for future delivery, at such price as the
Agent may reasonably deem fair; and the Agent may be the purchaser of any or all Collateral so sold
and hold the same thereafter in its own right free from any claim of a Pledgor or right of
redemption. Demands of performance, advertisements and presence of property and sale and notice of
sale are hereby waived to the extent permissible by law. Any sale hereunder may be conducted by an
auctioneer or any officer or agent of the Agent. Pledgors recognize that the Agent may be unable
to effect a public sale of the Collateral by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and applicable state law, and may be
otherwise delayed or adversely affected in effecting any sale by reason of present or future
restrictions thereon imposed by Governmental Authorities, and that as a consequence of such
prohibitions and restrictions the Agent may be compelled (i) to resort to one or more private sales
to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire
the stock for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale
thereof, (ii) to seek regulatory approval of any proposed sale or sales, or (iii) to limit the
amount of Collateral sold to any Person or group. Each Pledgor agrees and acknowledges that
private sales so made may be at prices and upon terms less favorable to Pledgors than if such
Collateral was sold either at public sales or at private sales not subject to other regulatory
restrictions, and that the Agent has no obligation to delay the sale of any of the Collateral for
the period of time necessary to permit the issuer of such Collateral to register or otherwise
qualify them, even if such issuer would agree to register or otherwise qualify such Collateral for
public sale under the Securities Act or applicable state law. Each Pledgor further agrees, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, that the use of private sales made under the foregoing
circumstances to dispose of the Collateral shall be deemed to be dispositions in a commercially
reasonable manner. Each Pledgor hereby acknowledges that a ready market may not exist for the
Pledged Interests if such Pledged Interests is not traded on a national securities exchange or
quoted on an automated quotation system and in such event the Pledged Interests may be sold for an
amount less than a pro rata share of the fair market value of the issuer’s assets minus its
liabilities. In addition to the foregoing, the Secured Parties may exercise such other rights and
remedies as may be available under the Loan Documents, at law (including, without limitation, the
UCC) or in equity.

     5. Proceeds of Sale.

          The proceeds of the sale of any of the Collateral and all sums received or collected from or
on account of such Collateral shall first be applied to the payment of expenses incurred or paid by
the Agent in connection with any sale, transfer or delivery of the Collateral, then to the payment
of any other costs, charges, reasonable attorneys’ fees or expenses mentioned herein, and then in
accordance with Section 3.9 of the Credit Agreement. The Agent shall, upon satisfaction in full of
all such Secured Obligations (including cash collateralization of all Letters of Credit) and
termination of the Commitments, promptly pay any balance to Pledgors.

4

 

     6. Presentments, Etc.

          The Agent shall not be under any duty or obligation whatsoever to make or give any
presentments, demands for performances, notices of nonperformance, protests, notice of protest or
notice of dishonor in connection with any obligations or evidences of indebtedness held thereby as
collateral, or in connection with any obligations or evidences of indebtedness which constitute in
whole or in part the Secured Obligations.

     7. Attorney-in-Fact.

          Each Pledgor hereby appoints the Agent as such Pledgor’s attorney-in-fact for the purposes of
carrying out the provisions of this Agreement and taking any action and executing any instrument
which the Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, which
appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest; provided that the 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. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Agent shall have the right and
power to receive, endorse and collect all checks and other orders for the payment of money made
payable to such Pledgor representing any dividend, payment, or other distribution payable or
distributable in respect to the Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the
same.

     8. Absolute Rights and Obligations.

          All rights of the Agent and the other Secured Parties, and all obligations of the Pledgors
hereunder, shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:

          8.1. any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, the Guaranty, any other
Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating to any of the Secured Obligations;

          8.2. any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or
any of the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from
the Credit Agreement, the Guaranty, any other Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument
relating to any of the Secured Obligations;

          8.3. any exchange, release or non-perfection of any other collateral, or any release or
amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from the Guaranty, any guaranty, or any other
security for all or any of the Secured Obligations; or

          8.4. any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a
discharge of, any Pledgor in respect of the Secured Obligations or of this Agreement.

     9. Waivers by Pledgors.

          Each Pledgor waives (to the extent permitted by applicable law) (a) any right to require any
Secured Party or any other obligee of the Secured Obligations to (i) proceed against the Borrower,
any Guarantor or any other Person, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any Collateral as defined in the
Credit Agreement, or (iii) pursue any other remedy in its power and (b) any defense arising by
reason of any disability or other defense of the Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Person, or by
reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of the Borrower, any Guarantor
or any other Person. Until termination of this Agreement, no Pledgor shall have any right

5

 

of subrogation, and each Pledgor waives any right to enforce any remedy which any Secured
Party or any other obligee of the Secured Obligations now has or may hereafter have against any
other Person and waives (to the extent permitted by applicable law) any benefit of and any right to
participate in any collateral or security whatsoever now or hereafter held by the Agent for the
benefit of the Secured Parties. Each Pledgor authorizes any Secured Party and any other obligee of
the Secured Obligations without notice (except notice required by applicable law) or demand and
without affecting such Pledgor’s liability hereunder or under the Loan Documents from time to time
to (i) take and hold security, other than the Collateral herein described, for the payment of such
Secured Obligations or any part thereof, and exchange, enforce, waive and release the Collateral
herein described or any part thereof or any such other security; and (ii) apply such Collateral or
other security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the Agent may determine in
accordance with the Credit Agreement.

          The Agent may at any time deliver (without representation, recourse or warranty) the
Collateral or any part thereof to a Pledgor free and clear of all Liens and the receipt thereof by
such Pledgor shall be a complete and full acquittance for the Collateral so delivered, and the
Secured Parties shall thereafter be discharged from any liability or responsibility therefor.

     10. Dividends and Voting Rights.

          10.1. All dividends and other distributions with respect to any of the Pledged Interests shall
be subject to the pledge hereunder except, during any period that no Event of Default exists, for
dividends, if any, permitted to be retained by a Pledgor under the Credit Agreement. So long as no
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any such dividends may be retained by such
Pledgor free from any Liens hereunder to the extent permitted by the Credit Agreement. Following
the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, all dividends shall be promptly
delivered to the Agent (together with stock powers or instruments of assignment duly executed in
blank affixed to any capital stock or other negotiable document or instrument so distributed) to be
held, released or disposed of by it hereunder or, at the option of the Agent, to be applied to the
Secured Obligations hereby secured as they become due.

          10.2. So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the registration
of the Collateral in the name of a Pledgor shall not be changed and such Pledgor shall be entitled
to exercise all voting and other rights and powers pertaining to the Collateral for all purposes
not inconsistent with the terms hereof.

          10.3. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, at the option of
the Agent, all rights of each Pledgor to receive and retain dividends upon the Collateral shall
cease and shall thereupon be vested in the Agent for the benefit of the Lenders.

          10.4. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at the option of
the Agent, all rights of each Pledgor to exercise the voting or consensual rights and powers which
it is otherwise authorized to exercise shall cease and the Agent may thereupon (but shall not be
obligated to) cause such Collateral to be registered in the name of the Agent or its nominee or
agent for the benefit of Secured Parties and exercise such voting or consensual rights and powers
as appertain to ownership of such Collateral, and to that end each Pledgor hereby appoints the
Agent as its proxy, with full power of substitution, to vote and exercise all other rights as a
shareholder with respect to such Pledged Interests hereunder upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, which proxy is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable
prior to termination of this Agreement, and each Pledgor hereby agrees to provide such further
proxies as
the Agent may request; provided, however, that the Agent in its discretion may
from time to time refrain from exercising, and shall not be obligated to exercise, any such voting
or consensual rights or such proxy.

6

 

     11. Power of Sale.

     Until termination of this Agreement, the power of sale and other rights, powers and remedies
granted to the Agent for the benefit of Secured Parties hereunder shall continue to exist and may
be exercised by the Agent at any time and from time to time, upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, irrespective of the fact that any Secured Obligations or any
part thereof may have become barred by any statute of limitations or that the liability of a
Pledgor may have ceased.

     12. Other Rights.

     The rights, powers and remedies given to the Agent for the benefit of Secured Parties by this
Agreement shall be in addition to all rights, powers and remedies given to any Secured Party by
virtue of any statute or rule of law. Any forbearance or failure or delay by the Agent in
exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such right,
power or remedy, and any single or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy hereunder shall
not preclude the further exercise thereof; and every right, power and remedy of the Secured Parties
shall continue in full force and effect until such right, power or remedy is specifically waived by
the Required Lenders by an instrument in writing.

     13. Further Assurances.

     Each Pledgor agrees at its own expense to do such further acts and things, and to execute and
deliver such additional conveyances, assignments, financing statements, agreements and instruments,
as the Agent may at any time reasonably request in connection with the administration or
enforcement of this Agreement or related to the Collateral or any part thereof or in order better
to assure and confirm unto the Agent its rights, powers and remedies for the benefit of Secured
Parties hereunder. Each Pledgor hereby consents and agrees that the issuers of or obligors in
respect of the Collateral shall be entitled to accept the provisions hereof as conclusive evidence
of the right of the Agent, on behalf of Secured Parties, to exercise its rights hereunder with
respect to the Collateral, notwithstanding any other notice or direction to the contrary heretofore
or hereafter given by such Pledgor or any other Person to any of such issuers or obligors.

     14. Binding Agreement; Assignment.

     This Agreement, and the terms, covenants and conditions hereof, shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, and to their respective successors and assigns, except
that no Pledgor shall be permitted to assign this Agreement or any interest herein or in the
Collateral, or any part thereof, or otherwise pledge, encumber or grant any option with respect to
the Collateral, or any part thereof, or any cash or property held by the Agent as Collateral under
this Agreement. All references herein to a Secured Party shall include any successor of such
party, including, without limitation, any obligees from time to time of the Secured Obligations.

7

 

     15. Severability.

     In case any security interest or other right or Lien of any Secured Party or any provision
hereof shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability shall not affect any other Lien, security interest or other right granted
hereby or provision hereof.

     16. Counterparts.

     This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and all the counterparts taken
together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.

     17. Termination.

     This Agreement and all Liens granted by the Pledgors hereunder shall terminate without
delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party on the date that all of the
Secured Obligations have been paid in full (or, in the case of outstanding Letters of Credit, cash
collateralized in accordance with the Credit Agreement) and the Credit Agreement and all
Commitments thereunder have terminated. Upon such termination of this Agreement, the Agent shall,
at the sole expense of the Pledgors, promptly deliver to each Pledgor the certificates evidencing
their respective shares of Pledged Interests (and any other property received as a dividend or
distribution or otherwise in respect of such Pledged Interests), together with any cash then
constituting the Collateral, not then sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with the
provisions hereof and take such further actions as may be necessary to effect the same. Upon the
written request and at the sole expense of a Pledgor, Agent shall release such Pledgor from its
obligations hereunder in the event that all of the Pledged Interests pledged by such Pledgor
hereunder have been sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of to a person other than another Loan
Party pursuant to a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement. Notwithstanding any termination
of this Agreement, all of the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents shall survive and continue in full force and effect. Further, notwithstanding the
release of any Loan Party from this Agreement, unless otherwise agreed to by Agent in writing, all
of the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall survive and
continue in full force and effect with respect to such Loan Party.

     18. Indemnification.

     Each Pledgor hereby covenants and agrees to pay, indemnify, and hold the Agent and each Lender
harmless from and against any and all other out-of-pocket liabilities, costs, expenses or
disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever arising in connection with any claim or litigation
by any Person resulting from the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration
of this Agreement or the Loan Documents, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or in
any respect relating to the Collateral or any transaction pursuant to which such Pledgor has
incurred any Secured Obligation (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”);
provided, however, that the Pledgors shall have no obligation hereunder to a
Secured Party with respect to Indemnified Liabilities arising from the willful misconduct or gross
negligence of such Secured Party. The agreements in this subsection shall survive termination of
this Agreement.

     19. Notices.

     All notices shall be sent in the manner and to the addresses specified in the Credit Agreement
and shall be deemed to have been received and be effective as and when specified in the Credit
Agreement.

     20. Governing Law; Waivers.

          (a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE
STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS EXECUTED, AND TO BE FULLY PERFORMED, IN SUCH STATE.

          (b) EACH PARTY HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUIT, ACTION OR
PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN
MAY BE INSTITUTED IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT SITTING IN THE STATES OF NEW YORK, FLORIDA OR
GEORGIA, AND, BY THE EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT
IT MAY HAVE NOW OR HEREAFTER TO THE LAYING OF THE VENUE OR TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY SUCH SUIT,
ACTION OR PROCEEDING, AND IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY TO THE JURISDICTION OF
ANY SUCH COURT IN ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING.

          (c) EACH PARTY AGREES THAT SERVICE OF PROCESS MAY BE MADE BY PERSONAL SERVICE OF A COPY OF THE
SUMMONS AND COMPLAINT OR OTHER LEGAL PROCESS IN ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING, OR BY
REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL (POSTAGE PREPAID) TO THE ADDRESS OF SUCH PARTY SPECIFIED IN
SECTION 19 HEREOF OR BY ANY OTHER METHOD OF SERVICE PROVIDED FOR UNDER THE APPLICABLE LAWS
IN EFFECT IN THE STATES OF NEW YORK, FLORIDA OR GEORGIA.

          (d) NOTHING CONTAINED IN SUBSECTIONS (b) OR (c) HEREOF SHALL PRECLUDE ANY
PARTY FROM BRINGING ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR
THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS IN THE COURTS OF ANY PLACE WHERE ANY OTHER PARTY OR ANY OF SUCH PARTY’S
PROPERTY OR ASSETS MAY BE FOUND OR LOCATED. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY THE APPLICABLE LAWS OF ANY

EXPRESSLY WAIVES, IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING, THE JURISDICTION OF ANY OTHER

PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE TRIED BEFORE A COURT AND

     21. Amendment and Restatement. This Agreement amends and restates the Existing Stock
Pledge and is not intended to create or result in a novation or accord and satisfaction. The terms
of the Existing Stock Pledge, together with all rights, duties, remedies and covenants thereunder
and the grant of each security interest thereunder, shall continue in full force and effect in this
Agreement, which shall constitute the entire understanding of the parties hereto with respect to
the subject matter hereof. This Agreement is intended to confirm and continue the security
interests granted pursuant to the Existing Stock Pledge in the “Collateral” described therein, all
of which security interests shall continue in full force and effect pursuant to this Agreement, and
this Agreement is not intended to grant a new security interest in any Collateral with respect to
which a security interest was previously granted by Pledgors pursuant to the Existing Stock Pledge.

     22. Additional Shares and Interests.

     If a Pledgor shall acquire or hold (a) any additional shares of capital stock of, or other
partnership, ownership or equity interest in, any Person listed on Schedule I hereto or (b)
any shares of capital stock of, or any other partnership, ownership or equity interest in, any
Subsidiary not listed on Schedule I hereto, which stock or partnership or other ownership
or equity interests are required to be subject to a Pledge Agreement pursuant to the terms of
Section 7.24 of the Credit Agreement (any such shares or other ownership or equity interests
described in clauses (a) or (b) above being referred to herein as the “Additional Interests”), the
Pledgor shall deliver to the Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties (i) a revised
Schedule I hereto reflecting the ownership and pledge of such Additional Interests and (ii)
a Pledge Agreement Supplement in the form of Exhibit A hereto with respect to such
Additional Interests duly completed and signed by the Pledgor. The Pledgor shall comply with the
requirements of this Section 22 concurrently with the acquisition of any such Additional
Interests in the case of shares and other ownership or equity interests described in clause (a)
above, and within the applicable time periods specified in the Credit Agreement with respect to
shares and other partnership, ownership or equity interests described in clause (b) above.

     23. Delivery of Pledged Interests and Additional Interests; Additional Debt Intercreditor
Agreement.

     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, to the extent that Agent’s security
interest in the Pledged Interests (or any Additional Interests) pledged hereunder is perfected in
favor of, or for the benefit of, Agent by the delivery of any such Collateral to another Person
pursuant to Section 10 of the Additional Debt Intercreditor Agreement, then for so long as such
perfection is maintained thereunder, and such Additional Debt Intercreditor Agreement remains in
effect, no separate delivery to Agent of the Pledged Interests (or Additional Interests) shall be
required hereunder. In addition to the foregoing, all terms, conditions and provisions of this
Agreement shall be subject to the Additional Debt Intercreditor Agreement, so long as the
Additional Debt Intercreditor Agreement remains in effect, and in the event that any of the terms
or provisions of this Agreement conflict with the terms or provisions of the Additional Debt
Intercreditor Agreement, (and at such time the Additional Debt Intercreditor Agreement remains in
effect), then the terms and provisions of the Additional Debt Intercreditor Agreement shall control
pursuant to Section 21 of the Additional Debt Intercreditor Agreement.

10

 

     24. ULC Limitation. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Credit
Agreement or any other document or agreement among all or some of the parties hereto, HP Delaware
is as of the date of this Agreement the sole registered and beneficial owner of all Pledged
ULC Shares more particularly described in Schedule 1 to this Agreement and will remain so
until such time as such Pledged ULC Shares are fully and effectively transferred into the name of
the Agent or any other person on the books and records of such ULC. Nothing in this Agreement, the
Credit Agreement or any other document or agreement delivered among all or some of the parties
hereto is intended to or shall constitute the Agent or any person other than a Pledgor to be a
member or shareholder of any ULC until such time as written notice is given to the applicable
Pledgor and all further steps are taken so as to register the Agent or other person as holder of
the Pledged ULC Shares. The granting of the pledge and security interest pursuant to this
Agreement does not make the Agent a successor to any Pledgor as a member or shareholder of any ULC,
and neither the Agent, any other Secured Party nor any of their respective successors or assigns
hereunder shall be deemed to become a member or shareholder of any ULC by accepting this Agreement
or exercising any right granted herein unless and until such time, if any, when the Agent or any
successor or assign expressly becomes a registered member or shareholder of any ULC. Each Pledgor
with respect to Pledged ULC Shares shall be entitled to receive and retain for its own account any
dividends or other distributions if any, in respect of such Pledged ULC Shares, and shall have the
right to vote such Pledged ULC Shares and to control the direction, management and policies of the
ULC issuing such Pledged ULC Shares to the same extent as such Pledgor would if such Pledged ULC
Shares were not pledged to the Agent or to any other person pursuant hereto. To the extent any
provision hereof or thereof would have the effect of constituting the Agent or any other Secured
Party to be a member or shareholder of any ULC prior to such time, such provision shall be severed
herefrom and ineffective with respect to the relevant Pledged ULC Shares without otherwise
invalidating or rendering unenforceable this Agreement or invalidating or rendering unenforceable
such provision insofar as it relates to Collateral other than Pledged ULC Shares. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary (except to the extent, if any, that the Agent or any other Secured
Party or any of their successors or assigns hereafter expressly becomes a registered member or
shareholder of any ULC), neither the Agent nor any other Secured Party nor any of their respective
successors or assigns shall be deemed to have assumed or otherwise become liable for any debts or
obligations of any ULC. Except upon the exercise by the Agent or any other Secured Party or other
persons of rights to sell or otherwise dispose of Pledged ULC Shares or other remedies following
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Pledgor shall not cause or
permit, or enable any ULC in which it holds Pledged ULC Shares to cause or permit, the Agent or
other Secured Party to: (a) be registered as member or shareholder of such ULC; (b) have any
notation entered in its favour in the share register of such ULC; (c) be held out as member or
shareholder of such ULC; (d) receive, directly or indirectly, any dividends, property or other
distributions from such ULC by reason of the Agent or such Secured Party or other person holding a
security interest in the Pledged ULC Shares; or (e) act as a member or shareholder of such ULC, or
exercise any rights of a member or shareholder of such ULC, including the right to attend a meeting
of such ULC or vote the shares of such ULC. For purposes of this Section 24, the term “ULC” shall
mean any unlimited liability company or unlimited liability corporation existing under the laws of
any province or territory of Canada and any successor to any such unlimited liability company or
unlimited liability corporation, and the term “Pledged ULC Shares” shall mean the Pledged Interests
which are shares in the capital stock of a ULC.

EXHIBIT A

PLEDGE AGREEMENT SUPPLEMENT

     THIS
PLEDGE AGREEMENT SUPPLEMENT (this “ Supplement”), dated as of __________________, 20___ is
made by and between
__________________, __________________ (the “Pledgor”), and
BANK OF AMERICA, N. A., a national banking association organized and existing under the laws of the
United States, as agent (the “Agent”) for each of the lenders (the “Lenders” and together with the
Agent, the “Secured Parties”) now or hereafter party to the Third Amended and Restated Credit
Agreement dated as of December ___, 2007, among such Lenders, the Agent, Applica Incorporated and
certain of its affiliates (as at any time amended, restated, modified or supplemented, the “Credit
Agreement”). All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective
meanings assigned thereto in the Pledge Agreement (as defined below).

     WHEREAS, the Pledgor is required under the terms of the Credit Agreement and that certain
Second Amended and Restated Stock Pledge Agreement dated as of December ___, 2007, by the Pledgor
and certain affiliates of the Pledgor in favor of the Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties
(as at any time amended, restated, modified or supplemented the “Pledge Agreement”) to cause
certain shares of capital stock or other equity or ownership interests held by it and listed on
Annex A to this Supplement (the “Additional Interests”) to become subject to the Pledge
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 Pledgor to pledge to the Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties the Additional Interests,
whether then owned and not required to be subject to a pledge or subsequently acquired or created;
and

     WHEREAS, the Secured Parties have required the Pledgor to pledge to the Agent for the benefit
of the Secured Parties all of the Additional Interests in accordance with the terms of the Credit
Agreement and the Pledge Agreement;

     NOW, THEREFORE, the Pledgor hereby agrees as follows with the Agent, for the benefit of the
Secured Parties:

     1. The Pledgor hereby reaffirms and acknowledges the pledge and collateral assignment to, and
the grant of security interest in, the Additional Interests contained in the Pledge Agreement and
pledges and collaterally assigns to the Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and grants to
the Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties a first priority lien and security interest in,
the Additional Interests and all of the following (subject only to those Permitted Liens, if any,
permitted under the Loan Documents to have priority over Agent’s security interest):

 

 

	 	(1)	 	all cash, securities, dividends, rights, and other property at
any time and from time to time declared or distributed in respect of or in
exchange for any or all of the Additional Interests, other than cash dividends
or other distributions permitted to be retained by the Pledgor under Section
10 of the Pledge Agreement;
	 
	 	(2)	 	all other property hereafter delivered to the Agent in
substitution for or in addition to any of the foregoing, all certificates and
instruments representing or evidencing such property and all cash, securities,
interest, dividends, rights, and other property at any time and from time to
time declared or distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of the
Additional Interests; and
	 
	 	(3)	 	all proceeds of any of the foregoing.

     2. The Pledgor hereby acknowledges, agrees and confirms that, by its execution of this
Supplement, the Additional Interests constitute “Pledged Interests” under and are subject to the
Pledge Agreement. Each of the representations and warranties with respect to Pledged Interests
contained in the Pledge Agreement is hereby made by the Pledgor with respect to the Additional
Interests. A revised Schedule I to the Pledge Agreement reflecting the Additional
Interests and all other Pledged Interests, together with stock certificates representing the
Additional Interests with undated stock powers duly executed in blank by the Pledgor, or, if
applicable, registrar’s pledge certificates, have been delivered herewith to the Agent.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Pledgor has caused this Supplement to be duly executed by its
authorized officer as of the day and year first above written.
