Dear Sirs:

1. Introductory.

The Notes will be issued under an indenture dated as of March 22, 2010 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Guarantors (as defined below) and Wilmington Trust Company, as Trustee. The Warrants will be issued under a warrant agreement, dated as of March 22, 2010 (the “Warrant Agreement”), between the Company and Wilmington Trust Company, as warrant agent (the “Warrant Agent”). The Units, the Notes and the Warrants are collectively referred to herein as the “Offered Securities.” The United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, is herein referred to as the “Securities Act.”

The Notes will be guaranteed, on a senior secured basis, jointly and severally by those subsidiaries of the Company listed in the attached Schedule B hereto (the “Guarantors”) and will be secured by certain collateral as described in the Preliminary Offering Circular (as defined below) and the Offering Circular (as defined below) (the “Collateral”), and as will be more fully described in the security agreements and/or other documents or instruments evidencing or creating or purporting to create a security interest (collectively, the “Security Documents”) to be dated as of the Closing Date (as defined below), among the Company, the Guarantors, Wilmington Trust Company, as trustee and collateral agent (the “Collateral Agent”). In addition, the Company, the lenders and Credit Suisse AG, as administrative agent for the lenders under the Credit Agreement dated as of March 22, 2010 (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), will enter into an intercreditor agreement as the same may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time (the “Intercreditor Agreement”) to be dated as of the Closing Date. The Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Ancillary Documents.”

The holders of the Notes will be entitled to the benefits of a Registration Rights Agreement dated as of the Closing Date, among the Company, the Guarantors and the Purchaser (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company agrees to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) registering an exchange offer for, or, in certain circumstances, the resale of, the Notes under the Securities Act.

The Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, hereby agree with the Purchaser as follows:

2. Representations and Warranties of the Company and the Guarantors. The Company and the Guarantors jointly and severally represent and warrant to, and agree with, the Purchaser that:

Neither the Purchaser’s consent to, nor its delivery to offerees or investors of, any such amendment or supplement shall constitute a waiver of any of the conditions set forth in Section 6. The first sentence of this subsection does not apply to statements in or omissions from any document in the Preliminary Offering Circular or Final Offering Circular, the General Disclosure Package or any Supplemental Marketing Material made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Purchaser specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information is that described as such in Section 8(b) hereof.

(b) The Company will furnish to the Purchaser copies of the Preliminary Offering Circular, each other document comprising a part of the General Disclosure Package, the Final Offering Circular, all amendments and supplements to such documents and each item of Supplemental Marketing Material, in each case as soon as available and in such quantities as the Purchaser reasonably requests, and the Company will furnish to the Purchaser on the date hereof three copies of each of the foregoing documents signed by a duly authorized officer of the Company, one of which in the case of the Preliminary Offering Circular and Final Offering Circular will include the independent accountants’ reports manually signed (or signed by facsimile to be followed up with a manual signature if requested after the Closing Date by Purchaser) by such independent accountants. At any time when the Company is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company will promptly furnish or cause to be furnished to the Purchaser and, upon request of holders and prospective purchasers of the Offered Securities, to such holders and purchasers, copies of the information required to be delivered to holders and prospective purchasers of the Offered Securities pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act (or any successor provision thereto) in order to permit compliance with Rule 144A in connection with resales by such holders of the Offered Securities. The Company will pay the expenses of printing and distributing to the Purchaser all such documents.

(c) The Company will arrange for the qualification of the Offered Securities for sale and the determination of their eligibility for investment under the laws of such jurisdictions in the United States and Canada as the Purchaser designates and will continue such qualifications in effect so long as required for the resale of the Offered Securities by the Purchaser, provided that the Company will not be required to qualify as a foreign corporation or to file a general consent to service of process in any such state.

(d) During the period of two years after the Closing Date, the Company will, upon request, furnish to the Purchaser and any holder of Offered Securities a copy of the restrictions on transfer applicable to the Offered Securities.

(e) During the period of two years after the Closing Date, the Company will not, and will not permit any of its affiliates (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act) to, resell any of the Offered Securities that have been reacquired by any of them.

(f) During the period of two years after the Closing Date, the Company will not be or become, an open-end investment company, unit investment trust or face-amount certificate company that is or is required to be registered under Section 8 of the Investment Company Act.

(g) The Company will pay all expenses incidental to the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, the Warrant Agreement, the Indenture, the Registration Rights Agreement and the Ancillary Documents, including (i) the fees and expenses of the Trustee, the Warrant Agent and their professional advisers; (ii) all expenses in connection with the execution, issue, authentication, packaging and initial delivery of the Offered Securities and, as applicable, the Exchange Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), the preparation and printing of this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Ancillary Documents, the Offered Securities, the Indenture, the Warrant Agreement, the Preliminary Offering Circular, any other documents comprising any part of the General Disclosure Package, the Final Offering Circular, all amendments and supplements thereto, each item of Supplemental Marketing Material and any other document relating to the issuance, offer, sale and delivery of the Offered Securities and as applicable, the Exchange Securities; (iii) the cost of any advertising approved by the Company in connection with the issue of the Offered Securities; (iv) any expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred in connection with qualification of the Offered Securities or the Exchange Securities for sale under the laws of such jurisdictions in the United States and Canada as the Purchaser designates and the printing of memoranda relating thereto; (v) for any fees charged by investment rating agencies for the rating of the Offered Securities or the Exchange Securities; (vi) for expenses incurred in distributing the Preliminary Offering Circular, any other documents comprising any part of the General Disclosure Package, the Final Offering Circular (including any amendments and supplements thereto) and any Supplemental Marketing Material to the Purchaser; and (vii) any reasonable fees and expenses in connection with the creation and perfection of liens on the Collateral pursuant to the Security Documents (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Initial Purchaser related thereto), including in connection with the filing of financing statements, fixture filings and filings with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and Copyright Office. The Company will also pay or reimburse the Purchaser (to the extent incurred by them) for all travel expenses of the Purchaser and the Company’s officers and employees and any other expenses of the Purchaser and the Company in connection with attending or hosting meetings with prospective purchasers of the Offered Securities from the Purchaser.

(h) In connection with the offering, until the Purchaser shall have notified the Company of the completion of the resale of the Offered Securities, neither the Company nor any of its affiliates has or will, either alone or with one or more other persons, bid or purchase for any account in which it or any of its affiliates has a beneficial interest any Offered Securities or attempt to induce any person to purchase any Offered Securities; and neither it nor any of its affiliates will make bids or purchases for the purpose of creating actual, or apparent, active trading in, or of raising the price of, the Offered Securities.

(i) For a period of 180 days after the date of the initial offering of the Offered Securities by the Purchaser, the Company will not offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, or file with the Commission a registration statement under the Securities Act (other than as contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement) relating to, any United States dollar-denominated debt securities issued or guaranteed by the Company and having a maturity of more than one year from the date of issue. The Company will not at any

time offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any securities under circumstances where such offer, sale, pledge, contract or disposition would cause the exemption afforded by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act or the safe harbor of Regulation S thereunder to cease to be applicable to the offer and sale of the Offered Securities.

6. Free Writing Communications. (a) The Company represents and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior consent of the Purchaser and the Purchaser’s Counsel (as defined below), and the Purchaser represents and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior consent of the Company and the Company’s Counsel (as defined below), it has not made and will not make any offer relating to the Offered Securities that would constitute an Issuer Free Writing Communication.

(b) The Company consents to the use by the Purchaser of a Free Writing Communication that (i) contains only (A) information describing the preliminary terms of the Offered Securities or their offering or (B) information that describes the final terms of the Offered Securities or their offering and that is included in the Terms Communication or is included in or is subsequently included in the Final Offering Circular or (ii) does not contain any material information about the Company or its securities that was provided by or on behalf of the Company, it being understood and agreed that any such Free Writing Communication referred to in clause (i) or (ii) shall not be an Issuer Free Writing Communication for purposes of this Agreement.

7. Conditions of the Obligation of the Purchaser. The obligation of the Purchaser to purchase and pay for the Offered Securities will be subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties on the part of the Company and the Guarantors herein, to the accuracy of the statements of officers of the Company and the Guarantors made pursuant to the provisions hereof, to the performance by the Company and the Guarantors of their obligations hereunder and to the following additional conditions precedent:

8. Indemnification and Contribution. (a) The Company and the Guarantors will, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser, its officers, partners, members, directors and its affiliates and each person, if any, who controls such Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Purchaser may become subject, under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Preliminary Offering Circular or the Final Offering Circular, in each case as amended or supplemented, or any Issuer Free Writing Communication or the Exchange Act Reports, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and will reimburse the Purchaser for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Purchaser in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission from any of such documents in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Purchaser specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information consists of the information described as such in subsection (b) below.

(b) The Purchaser will indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the Guarantors, their respective directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company and the Guarantors within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company may become subject, under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Preliminary Offering Circular or the Final Offering Circular,

in each case as amended or supplemented, or any Issuer Free Writing Communication or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Purchaser specifically for use therein, and will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by the Purchaser consists of the following information in the Preliminary Offering Circular and Final Offering Circular: under the caption “Plan of Distribution”, the first sentence of the third paragraph and the third sentence of the ninth paragraph; provided, however, that the Purchaser shall not be liable for any losses, claims, damages or liabilities arising out of or based upon the Company’s failure to perform its obligations under Section 5(a) of this Agreement.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under subsection (a) or (b) above, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; but the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under subsection (a) or (b) above except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided further that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under subsection (a) or (b) above. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party unless such settlement includes (i) an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such action and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Purchaser on the other from the offering of the Offered Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Purchaser on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on

the one hand and the Purchaser on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total discounts and commissions received by the Purchaser from the Company under this Agreement. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Purchaser and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), the Purchaser shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Offered Securities purchased by it were resold exceeds the amount of any damages which the Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

(e) The obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under this Section shall be in addition to any liability which the Company and the Guarantors may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls the Purchaser within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act; and the obligations of the Purchaser under this Section shall be in addition to any liability which the Purchaser may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act.

9. Survival of Certain Representations and Obligations. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company or its officers, the Guarantors or their officers and of the Purchaser set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation, or statement as to the results thereof, made by or on behalf of the Purchaser, the Company or any of their respective representatives, officers or directors or any controlling person, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Offered Securities. Subject to the immediately following sentence, if for any reason the purchase of the Offered Securities by the Purchaser is not consummated, the Company and the Guarantors shall remain jointly and severally responsible for the expenses to be paid or reimbursed by it pursuant to Section 5 and the respective obligations of the Company, the Guarantors and the Purchaser pursuant to Section 8 shall remain in effect. If the purchase of the Offered Securities by the Purchaser is not consummated for any reason other than solely because of the occurrence of any event specified in clause (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), (vii) or (viii) of Section 7(b), the Company will reimburse the Purchaser for all out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) reasonably incurred by it in connection with the offering of the Offered Securities.

10. Notices. All communications hereunder will be in writing and, if sent to the Purchaser will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to the Purchaser at Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, X.X. 10010-3629, Attention: LCD-IBD, or, if sent to the Company or the Guarantors, will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to them at 0000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, XxXxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000, Attention: Associate General Counsel.

11. Successors. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the controlling persons referred to in Section 8, and no other person will have any right or obligation hereunder, except that holders of Offered Securities shall be entitled to enforce the agreements for their benefit contained in the second and third sentences of Section 5(b) hereof against the Company as if such holders were parties thereto.

12. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same Agreement.

13. Absence of Fiduciary Relationship. The Company acknowledges and agrees that:

(a) the Purchaser has been retained solely to act as initial purchaser in connection with the initial purchase, offering and resale of the Offered Securities and that no fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship between the Company and the Purchaser has been created in respect of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Preliminary or Final Offering Circular, irrespective of whether the Purchaser has advised or is advising the Company on other matters;

(b) the purchase price of the Offered Securities set forth in this Agreement was established by the Company following discussions and arms-length negotiations with the Purchaser and the Company is capable of evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

(c) the Company has been advised that the Purchaser and its affiliates are engaged in a broad range of transactions which may involve interests that differ from those of the Company and that the Purchaser has no obligation to disclose such interests and transactions to Company by virtue of any fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship; and

(d) the Company waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims it may have against the Purchaser for breach of fiduciary duty or alleged breach of fiduciary duty and agrees that the Purchaser shall have no liability (whether direct or indirect) to the Company in respect of such a fiduciary duty claim or to any person asserting a fiduciary duty claim on behalf of or in right of the Company, including stockholders, employees or creditors of the Company.

14. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York without regard to principles of conflicts of laws.

15. Jurisdiction. The Company and each of the Guarantors hereby submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Federal and state courts in the Borough of Manhattan in The City of New York in any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

If the foregoing is in accordance with the Purchaser’s understanding of our agreement, kindly sign and return to us one of the counterparts hereof, whereupon it will become a binding agreement between the Company, the Guarantors and the Purchaser in accordance with its terms.
