Collateralize the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to clause Fifth
above shall be applied to satisfy drawings under such Letters of Credit as they occur. If any

in the order set forth above.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Senior Obligations arising under Secured Cash Management Agreements,
Secured Hedge Agreements and Secured Lines shall be excluded from the application described above
if each Administrator and the Collateral Agent has not received written notice thereof, together

information supplied by the Term Loan Administrator as to the amounts payable with respect to the
Term Loan Obligations, and the Collateral Agent shall have no liability to any of the Senior
Secured Parties for actions taken in reliance on such information. All distributions made by the
Collateral Agent hereunder shall be (subject to manifest error or any decree of any court of
competent jurisdiction) final, and the Collateral Agent shall have no duty to inquire as to the
application by the Revolving Loan Administrator or the Term Loan Administrator of any amounts
distributed to them.

otherwise, or if the Collateral Agent’s security interest hereunder and under the Collateral
Documents or rights under any Guarantee are enforced with respect to some, but not all, of the
Senior Obligations then outstanding, the Collateral Agent shall nonetheless apply all payments for
the benefit of the holders of all Senior Obligations in the proportions and subject to the
priorities specified herein. To the extent that the Collateral Agent distributes amounts as set
forth in the preceding sentence collected with respect to Senior Obligations held by one holder to
or on behalf of Senior Obligations held by a second holder, the first holder shall be deemed to
have purchased a participation in the Senior Obligations held by the second holder, or shall be
subrogated to the rights of the second holder to receive any subsequent payments and distributions
made with respect to the portion thereof paid or to be paid by the application of such amounts.

the Required Revolving Loan Lenders) or the Term Loan Administrator (on behalf of the Required Term
Loan Lenders) at the time of such Event of Default, shall deliver a Notice of Event of Default to
the Collateral Agent. Promptly upon receipt by the Collateral Agent of a Notice of Event of
Default, the Collateral Agent shall simultaneously notify the Revolving Loan Administrator or the
Term Loan Administrator, as the case may be.
(b) A Notice of Event of Default delivered by the Revolving Loan Administrator or the Term
Loan Administrator shall become effective upon actual receipt thereof by the Collateral Agent. A
Notice of Event of Default shall automatically be deemed to have been delivered by the Revolving
Loan Administrator and the Term Loan Administrator and received by the Collateral Agent upon the
occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event. A Notice of Event of Default, once effective, shall remain in
effect unless and until the Collateral Agent actually receives a written notice of cancellation as
provided in Section 2.7(c) below.
(c) The Revolving Loan Administrator or the Term Loan Administrator, as the case may be, shall
