GUARANTY PROVISIONS
SECTION 2.1. Guaranty. Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely,
unconditionally and irrevocably:
(a) guarantees the full and punctual payment when due, whether at stated maturity, by
required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise, of all Obligations of
each other Loan Party now or hereafter existing, whether for principal, interest (including
interest accruing at the then applicable rate provided in the Credit Agreement after the
occurrence of any Default set forth in Section 8.01(f) or (g) of the Credit Agreement,
whether or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is allowed under applicable
Law following the institution of a proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law), fees,
reimbursement obligations with respect to letters of credit or otherwise, expenses or
otherwise (including all such amounts which would become due but for the operation of the
automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. §362(a), and the
operation of Sections 502(b) and 506(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. §502(b) and

(b) indemnifies and holds harmless each Secured Party for any and all costs and
expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by such Secured Party
in enforcing any rights under this Guaranty;
provided that each Guarantor shall only be liable under this Guaranty for the maximum
amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering this Guaranty, as it relates
to such Guarantor, voidable under applicable Law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent
transfer, and not for any greater amount. This Guaranty constitutes a guaranty of payment when due
and not of collection, and each Guarantor specifically agrees that it shall not be necessary or
required that any Secured Party exercise any right, assert any claim or demand or enforce any
remedy whatsoever against any other Loan Party or any other Person before or as a condition to the
obligations of such Guarantor hereunder.

SECTION 2.2. Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of
any Guarantor is made to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any other Secured Party, or the
Administrative Agent or any Lender or any other Secured Party exercises its right of setoff, and
such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated,
declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any
settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or such Lender or such Secured Party in its
discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any
proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then to the extent of such recovery, the
obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in
full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred.
SECTION 2.3. Guaranty Absolute, etc. This Guaranty shall in all respects be a
continuing, absolute, unconditional and irrevocable guaranty of payment, and shall remain in full
force and effect until the Termination Date has occurred. Each Guarantor jointly and severally
guarantees that the Obligations of each other Loan Party will be paid strictly in accordance with
the terms of each Loan Document under which they arise, regardless of any Law, regulation or order
now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of any
Secured Party with respect thereto. The liability of each Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be
joint and several, absolute, unconditional and irrevocable irrespective of:
(a) any lack of validity, legality or enforceability of any Loan Document;
(b) the failure of any Secured Party (i) to assert any claim or demand or to enforce
any right or remedy against any Loan Party or any other Person (including any other
guarantor) under the provisions of any Loan Document or otherwise, or (ii) to exercise any
right or remedy against any other guarantor (including any Subsidiary Guarantor) of, or
Collateral securing, any Obligations;
(c) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all
or any part of the Obligations, or any other extension, compromise or renewal of any
Obligation;
(d) any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination of any Obligations for any
reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and
shall not be subject to (and each Guarantor hereby waives any right to or claim of) any
defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the
invalidity, illegality, nongenuineness, irregularity, compromise, unenforceability of, or
any other event or occurrence affecting, any Obligations or otherwise;
(e) any amendment to, rescission, waiver, or other modification of, or any consent to
or departure from, any of the terms of any Loan Document;
Amended and Restated Subsidiary Guaranty
3
(f) any addition, exchange or release of any Collateral or of any Person that is (or
will become) a guarantor (including a Subsidiary Guarantor) of the Obligations, or any
surrender or non-perfection of any Collateral, or any amendment to or waiver or release of
or addition to, or consent to or departure from, any other guaranty held by any Secured
Party guaranteeing any of the Obligations; or
(g) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or
a legal or equitable discharge of, any other Loan Party, any surety or any guarantor.
SECTION 2.4. Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
each Lender and each of their respective Affiliates are hereby authorized at any time and from time
to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all
deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any
time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender or any such
Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Guarantor against any and all of the
obligations of such Guarantor now or hereafter existing under this Guaranty or any other Loan
Document to such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand
under this Guaranty or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of such Guarantor may
be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender different from the
branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each Lender
and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies
(including other rights of setoff) that such Lender or its Affiliates may have. Each Lender agrees
to notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and
application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such
setoff and application.
SECTION 2.5. Waiver, etc. Each Guarantor hereby waives promptness, diligence, notice
of acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the Obligations and this Guaranty and any
requirement that any Secured Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien, or any property
subject thereto, or exhaust any right or take any action against any Loan Party or any other Person
(including any other guarantor) or entity or any Collateral securing the Obligations, as the case
may be.
SECTION 2.6. Postponement of Subrogation, etc. Each Guarantor agrees that it will
not exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of rights of subrogation under this Guaranty or
any other Loan Document to which it is a party, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek
any contribution or reimbursement from any other Loan Party, in respect of any payment made, under
any Loan Document or otherwise, until following the Termination Date. Any amount paid to any
Guarantor on account of any such subrogation rights prior to the Termination Date shall be held in
trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall immediately be paid and turned over to the
Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in the exact form received by such
Guarantor (duly endorsed in favor of the Administrative Agent, if required), to be credited and
applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with Section
2.7; provided that if any Guarantor has made payment to the Secured Parties of all or
any part of the Obligations and the Termination Date has occurred, then at such Guarantor’s
request, the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) will, at the
expense of such Guarantor, promptly execute and deliver to such Guarantor appropriate
documents (without recourse and without representation or warranty) necessary to evidence the
transfer by subrogation to such Guarantor of an interest in the Obligations resulting from such
payment. In furtherance of the foregoing, at all times prior to the Termination Date, each
Guarantor shall refrain from taking any action or commencing any proceeding against any other Loan
Party (or its successors or assigns, whether in connection with a bankruptcy proceeding or
otherwise) to recover any amounts in respect of payments made under this Guaranty to any Secured
Party.

Party as follows:
(a) Each Guarantor agrees that all payments made by such Guarantor hereunder will be
made in the currency of the applicable Obligation (except to the extent provided otherwise
in the Credit Agreement) to the Administrative Agent, without setoff, counterclaim or other
defense and in accordance with Sections 3.01 and 8.03 of the Credit Agreement, free and
clear of and without deduction for any Taxes (except as provided otherwise in the Credit
Agreement), each Guarantor hereby agreeing to comply with and be bound by the provisions of
Sections 3.01 and 8.03 of the Credit Agreement in respect of all payments made by it
hereunder and the provisions of which Sections are hereby incorporated into and made a part
of this Guaranty by this reference as if set forth herein; provided that references

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
SECTION 3.1. Representations. In order to induce the Lenders to enter into the

and warrant to each Secured Party as set forth below.

(b) Each Guarantor has knowledge of each other Loan Party’s financial condition and
affairs and has adequate means to obtain from the Borrowers and each such other Loan Party
on an ongoing basis information relating thereto and to such Loan
Party’s ability to pay and perform the Obligations, and agrees to assume the
responsibility for keeping, and to keep, so informed for so long as this Guaranty is in
effect. Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that the Secured Parties shall have no
obligation to investigate the financial condition or affairs of any Loan Party for the
benefit of such Guarantor nor to advise such Guarantor of any fact respecting, or any change
in, the financial condition or affairs of any Loan Party that might become known to any
Secured Party at any time, whether or not such Secured Party knows or believes or has reason
to know or believe that any such fact or change is unknown to such Guarantor, or might (or
does) materially increase the risk of such Guarantor as guarantor, or might (or would)
affect the willingness of such Guarantor to continue as a guarantor of the Obligations.
(c) It is in the best interests of each Guarantor to execute this Guaranty inasmuch as
such Guarantor will, as a result of being a Subsidiary of the Company, derive substantial
direct and indirect benefits from the Loans made from time to time to the Borrowers by the
Lenders pursuant to the Credit Agreement and each Guarantor agrees that the Secured Parties
are relying on this representation in agreeing to make such Loans to the Borrowers.

provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or
render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 5.13. Judgment Currency. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any
court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or under any other Loan Document in one
currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with

other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation
of each Guarantor in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders
hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the
“Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with

Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following

Administrative Agent may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement
Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less

Currency, such Guarantor agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to
indemnify the Administrative Agent or the Person to whom such obligation was owing against such
loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due

applicable law).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, and for other consideration (the receipt and
sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged), each of the undersigned agrees, for the benefit of
each Secured Party, as follows.
SECTION 1. Party to Guaranty, etc. In accordance with the terms of the Guaranty, by
its signature below, each of the undersigned hereby irrevocably agrees to become a Guarantor under
the Guaranty with the same force and effect as if it were an original signatory thereto and each of
the undersigned hereby (a) agrees to be bound by and comply with all of the terms and provisions of
the Guaranty applicable to it as a Guarantor and (b) represents and warrants that the
representations and warranties made by it as a Guarantor thereunder are true and correct as of the
date hereof. In furtherance of the foregoing, each reference to a “Guarantor” and/or “Guarantors”
in the Guaranty shall be deemed to include each of the undersigned.
SECTION 2. Waiver, Agreements, etc. Each of the undersigned hereby waives
promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the
Obligations, this Supplement and the Guaranty and any requirement that any Secured Party protect,
secure, perfect or insure any Lien, or any property subject thereto, or exhaust any right or take
any action against any Loan Party or any other Person (including any other Guarantor) or entity or
any Collateral securing the Obligations, as the case may be. As provided below, this Supplement
shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Law of the State of New York.
SECTION 3. Representations. Each of the undersigned hereby represents and warrants
that this Supplement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by it and that this
Supplement and the Guaranty constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of each of the
undersigned, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.
SECTION 4. Full Force of Guaranty. Except as expressly supplemented hereby, the
Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.
SECTION 5. Severability. If any provision of this Supplement or the other Loan
Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and
enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Supplement and the other Loan Documents shall
not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations
to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic
effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable
provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or
render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
SECTION 6. Indemnity; Fees and Expenses, etc. Without limiting the provisions of any
other Loan Document, each of the undersigned agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent for its
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with this Supplement, including reasonable
attorney’s fees and expenses of the Administrative Agent’s counsel.
SECTION 7. Governing Law, Entire Agreement, etc. GOVERNING LAW. THIS SUPPLEMENT
SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
SECTION 8. Counterparts. This Supplement may be executed by the parties hereto in
several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which shall
constitute together but one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a
signature page to this Guaranty by facsimile or via other electronic means shall be effective as
delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Guaranty.
SECTION 9. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. THIS SUPPLEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT
THE FINAL AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR,
CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL
AGREEMENTS AMONG THE PARTIES.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the undersigned has caused this Supplement to be duly executed and
delivered by its Responsible Officer as of the date first above written.
