(g) If at any time the Escrow Agent is served with any judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, writ or other form of judicial or administrative process which in any way affects the Escrowed Funds (including but not limited to orders of attachment or any other forms of levies or injunctions or stays relating to the transfer of the Escrowed Funds), the Escrow Agent is authorized to comply therewith in any manner as it or its legal counsel of its own choosing deems appropriate; and if the Escrow Agent complies with any such judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, writ or other form of judicial or administrative process, the Escrow Agent shall not be liable to any of the parties hereto or to any other person or entity even though such order, judgment, decree, writ or process may be subsequently modified or vacated or otherwise determined to have been without legal force or effect.

(h) The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted or for any loss or damage resulting from its actions or its performance of its duties hereunder in the absence of bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct on its part. In no event shall the Escrow Agent be liable (i) for acting in accordance with or relying upon any instruction, notice, demand, certificate or document from the Pledgor, the Trustee or the Representative in accordance with the provisions of this Escrow and Security Agreement, (ii) for any consequential, punitive or special damages, (iii) for the acts or omissions of its nominees, designees, subagents or subcontractors appointed or selected by the Escrow Agent in good faith or (iv) for an amount in excess of the value of the Escrowed Funds, valued as of the date of loss.

(i) In the event of any ambiguity or uncertainty hereunder or in any notice or other communication received by the Escrow Agent hereunder, the Escrow Agent is hereby authorized by the Pledgor, the Trustee and the Representative to refrain from taking any action other than to retain possession of the Escrowed Funds, unless the Escrow Agent receives written instructions, signed by an authorized representative of each of the Pledgor, the Trustee and the Representative which eliminates such ambiguity or uncertainty.

(j) The Escrow Agent may consult with legal counsel of its own choosing, at the expense of the Pledgor, as to any matter relating to this Escrow and Security Agreement, and the Escrow Agent shall incur no liability and shall be fully protected in respect of any action taken, omitted or suffered by it in good faith in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.

(k) In the event of any dispute or conflicting claim with respect to the payment, ownership or right of possession of the Collateral Account, the Escrowed Funds or the Collateral, the Escrow Agent shall be entitled, in its sole discretion, to refuse to comply with any and all claims, demands or instructions. The Escrow Agent is authorized and directed to retain in its possession, without liability to anyone, except for its own bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct, all or any part of the Escrowed Funds until (i) such dispute shall have been settled either by mutual agreement of the parties concerned or by final order, decree or judgment of a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction in the United States of America (as notified to the Escrow Agent in writing by the parties to the dispute or their authorized representatives and setting forth the resolution of the dispute) or (ii) the Escrow Agent shall have received security or an indemnity satisfactory to it sufficient to hold it harmless from and against any and all Losses (as defined below) which it may incur by reason of so acting. The Escrow Agent shall be under no duty whatsoever to institute, defend or partake in such proceedings. The rights of the Escrow Agent under this paragraph are in addition to all other rights which it may have by law or otherwise including, without limitation, the right to file an action in interpleader.

(l) The Escrow Agent shall not incur liability for not performing any act or not fulfilling any duty, obligation or responsibility hereunder by reason of any occurrence beyond the control of the Escrow Agent (including but not limited to any act or provision of any present or future law or regulation or governmental authority, any act of God or war, terrorism or the unavailability of the Federal Reserve Bank or other wire or communication facility).

(m) When the Escrow Agent acts on any communication (including, but not limited to, communication with respect to the delivery of securities or the wire transfer of funds) sent by electronic transmission, the Escrow Agent, absent bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not be responsible or liable in the event such communication is not an authorized or authentic communication of the party involved or is not in the form the party involved sent or intended to send (whether due to fraud, distortion or otherwise). The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Escrow Agent’s reliance upon and compliance with such instructions notwithstanding such instructions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction. The Pledgor, the Trustee and the Initial Purchasers, as the case may be, agree to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic transmission to submit instructions and directions to the Escrow Agent, including, without limitation, the risk of the Escrow Agent’s acting on unauthorized instructions, and the risk or interception and misuse by third parties.

(n) The Escrow Agent will provide to the Pledgor and the Trustee monthly statements identifying transactions, transfers or holdings of Escrowed Funds, and each such statement will be deemed to be correct and final upon receipt thereof by the Pledgor and the Trustee unless the Pledgor or the Trustee notifies the Escrow Agent in writing to the contrary within thirty Business Days of the date of such statement.

(o) The Escrow Agent will not be under any duty to give the Escrowed Funds held by it hereunder any greater degree of care than it gives its own similar property and will not be required to invest any funds held hereunder except as directed in this Escrow and Security Agreement. Uninvested funds held hereunder will not earn or accrue interest.

(p) The Escrow Agent does not have any interest in the Escrowed Funds hereunder but is serving as escrow holder only and having only possession thereof. The Pledgor shall pay or reimburse the Escrow Agent upon request for any transfer taxes or other taxes relating to the Escrowed Funds incurred in connection herewith and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Escrow Agent from any amounts that it is obligated to pay in the way of such taxes. Upon execution of this Escrow and Security Agreement, the Pledgor shall provide the Escrow Agent with a fully executed W-9 IRS form. The parties hereto agree that (i) for tax reporting purposes, and for any tax year, all interest or other income earned under the Escrow and Security Agreement shall be allocable to the Pledgor and (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Pledgor will include all amounts earned under the Escrow and Security Agreement in its gross income for federal, state and local income tax (collectively, “income tax”) purposes and pay any income tax resulting therefrom, and the Escrow Agent shall allocate all such earnings for tax reporting purposes to the Pledgor. Any payments of income from the account established hereunder may be subject to withholding regulations then in force with respect to United States taxes, and if required, the parties hereto will promptly provide the Escrow Agent with completed and executed X-0, X-0XXX or other appropriate forms. It is understood that the Escrow Agent shall be responsible for income reporting only with respect to any income which may be earned on investment of funds which are a part of the Escrowed Funds and is not responsible for any other reporting.

(q) The Escrow Agent may resign and be discharged from its duties hereunder at any time by giving written notice 30 calendar days prior to such resignation to the Pledgor, the Trustee and the Representative as provided in this Section. The Pledgor, with the consent of the Representative and the Trustee, may remove Escrow Agent at any time by giving written notice signed by the authorized representative of each of the Pledgor, the Representative and the Trustee at least 30 calendar days prior to such removal to Escrow Agent. Following such resignation or removal, a successor Escrow Agent shall be appointed by the Pledgor, the Trustee and the Representative, who shall provide written notice of such to the resigning or removed Escrow Agent. Such successor Escrow Agent shall become Escrow Agent hereunder, and all Escrowed Funds and Collateral shall be transferred to it upon the resignation or removal date specified in such notice. If the Pledgor, the Trustee and the Representative are unable to appoint a successor Escrow Agent within 30 calendar days after such notice, the Escrow Agent may, in its sole discretion, deliver the Escrowed Funds and the Collateral to the Trustee at the address

provided herein or may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Escrow Agent or for other appropriate relief. The costs and expenses (including but not limited to its attorney fees and expenses) incurred by the Escrow Agent in connection with such proceeding shall be paid by the Pledgor. On the resignation/removal date and after receipt of the identity of the successor Escrow Agent, the Escrow Agent shall either deliver and/or disburse the Escrowed Funds and the Collateral then held hereunder to the successor Escrow Agent, less the Escrow Agent’s fees, costs and expenses or other obligations owed to the Escrow Agent. Upon its resignation or removal and delivery and/or disbursement of the Escrow Property in its entirety as set forth in this Section, the Escrow Agent shall be discharged of and from any and all further obligations arising in connection with the Escrowed Funds, the Collateral or this Escrow and Security Agreement.

SECTION 10. Indemnity. The Pledgor and the Company shall jointly and severally indemnify, hold harmless and defend the Escrow Agent and its directors, officers, agents and employees, from and against any and all claims, actions, obligations, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses (“Losses”) directly or indirectly arising out of, relating to or in connection with its acceptance of its appointment hereunder or its performance as Escrow Agent, provided that such Losses do not arise from the Escrow Agent’s bad faith, wilful misconduct or gross negligence.

SECTION 11. Remedies upon Event of Default. If any Event of Default under the Indenture or any default hereunder (any such Event of Default or default being referred to in this Escrow and Security Agreement as an “Event of Default”) not cured within 30 days after notice thereof to the Pledgor shall have occurred and be continuing:

(a) The Trustee, Escrow Agent and the Holders of the Notes shall have, in addition to all other rights given by law or by this Escrow and Security Agreement or the Indenture, all of the rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral of a secured party under the U.C.C. in effect in the State of New York at that time. In addition, with respect to any Collateral that shall then be in or shall thereafter come into the possession or custody of the Escrow Agent, the Escrow Agent, at the written direction of the Trustee, shall, sell or cause the same to be sold at any broker’s board or at public or private sale, in one or more sales or lots, at such price or prices as the Trustee may deem commercially reasonable, for cash or on credit or for future delivery, without assumption of any credit risk. The purchaser of any or all Collateral so sold shall thereafter hold the same absolutely, free from any claim, encumbrance or right of any kind whatsoever created by or through the Pledgor. Unless any of the Collateral threatens, in the reasonable judgment of the Trustee, to decline speedily in value or is or becomes of a type sold on a recognized market, the Trustee will give the Pledgor reasonable notice of the time and place of any public sale thereof, or of the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition is to be made. Any sale of the Collateral conducted in conformity with reasonable commercial practices of banks, insurance companies, commercial finance companies, or other financial institutions disposing of property similar to the Collateral shall be deemed to be commercially reasonable. Any requirements of reasonable notice shall be met if such notice is mailed to the Pledgor as provided in Section 14.1 hereof at least five (5) days before the time of the sale or disposition. The Trustee, Escrow Agent or any Holder of Notes may, in its own name or in the name of a designee or nominee, buy any of the Collateral at any public sale and, if permitted by applicable law, at any private sale. All expenses (including court costs and

reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements) of, or incident to, the enforcement of any of the provisions hereof shall be recoverable from the proceeds of the sale or other disposition of the Collateral.

(b) The Pledgor further agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of all or any portion of the Collateral pursuant to this Section 11 valid and binding and in compliance with any and all other applicable requirements of law. The Pledgor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 11 will cause irreparable injury to the Trustee, Escrow Agent and the Holders of the Notes, that the Trustee, Escrow Agent and the Holders of the Notes have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 11 shall be specifically enforceable against the Pledgor, and the Pledgor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred.

SECTION 12. Compensation; Expenses. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to receive payment from the Pledgor for fees, costs and expenses for all services rendered by it hereunder in accordance with Schedule 2 to this Escrow and Security Agreement. The Pledgor shall reimburse the Escrow Agent on demand for all losses, liabilities, damages, disbursements, advances or expenses paid or incurred by it in the administration of its duties hereunder, including, but not limited to, all counsel, advisor and agent fees and disbursements. At all times, the Escrow Agent will have a right of set off and first lien upon the Collateral Account for payment of customary fees, costs and expenses and all such losses, liabilities, damages or expenses from time to time. Such fees, costs and expenses shall be paid from the Escrowed Funds to the extent not otherwise paid hereunder, and the Escrow Agent may sell, convey or otherwise dispose of any Escrowed Funds for such purpose. The obligations contained in this Section shall survive the termination of this Escrow and Security Agreement and the resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent

SECTION 13. Security Interest Absolute. All rights of the Trustee, Escrow Agent, the Holders of the Notes and the Initial Purchasers and security interests hereunder, and all obligations of the Pledgor hereunder, shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:

(a) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Indenture or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;

(b) 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 Indenture; or

(c) any exchange, surrender, release or non-perfection of any Liens on any other collateral for all or any of the Obligations.

SECTION 14. Miscellaneous Provisions.

14.1 Notices. Any notices, requests, instructions or other communications provided for in this Escrow and Security Agreement shall be sufficiently given if in writing, signed by the proper party’s authorized representative and delivered in person or mailed by (i)

personal delivery, overnight delivery by a recognized courier or delivery service, (ii) mailed by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or (iii) electronic transmission, which includes fax machine, email with an imaged or scanned attachment (such as a “pdf”) or other similar electronic transmission, with confirmation of receipt of such transmission; and shall become effective when delivered to the addresses noted below or such other address as may be substituted therefor by written notification by the proper party’s Authorized Representative.

14.2 No Adverse Interpretation of Other Agreements. This Escrow and Security Agreement may not be used to interpret another pledge, security or debt agreement of the Pledgor or any subsidiary thereof. No such pledge, security or debt agreement (other than the Indenture) may be used to interpret this Escrow and Security Agreement.

14.3 Severability. The provisions of this Escrow and Security Agreement are severable, and if any clause or provision shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, then such invalidity or unenforceability shall affect in that jurisdiction only such clause or provision, or part thereof, and shall not in any manner affect such clause or provision in any other jurisdiction or any other clause or provision of this Escrow and Security Agreement in any jurisdiction.

14.4 Headings. The headings in this Escrow and Security Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not to be considered a part hereof and shall in no way modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.

14.5 Counterpart Originals. This Escrow and Security Agreement may be signed in two or more counterparts (which may include counterparts delivered by any standard form of telecommunication), each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same agreement.

14.6 Benefits of Escrow and Security Agreement. Nothing in this Escrow and Security Agreement, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors hereunder, and the Holders of the Notes, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Escrow and Security Agreement.

14.7 Amendments, Waivers and Consents. Any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Escrow and Security Agreement and any consent to any departure by the Pledgor from any provision of this Escrow and Security Agreement shall be effective only if made or duly given in compliance with all of the terms and provisions of the Indenture and, in addition, with the written consent of the Escrow Agent, the Trustee and the Representative, and none of the Escrow Agent, the Trustee, the Representative or any Holder of Notes shall be deemed, by any act, delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default or in any breach of any of the terms and conditions hereof. Failure of the Escrow Agent, the Trustee, the Representative or any Holder of Notes to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall not preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Escrow Agent, the Trustee, the Representative or any Holder of Notes of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy that the Escrow Agent, the Trustee, the Representative or such Holder of Notes would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

14.8 Interpretation of Agreement. To the extent a term or provision of this Escrow and Security Agreement (other than Sections 9, 10 and 12 hereof) conflicts with the Indenture, the Indenture shall control with respect to the subject matter of such term or provision. Acceptance of or acquiescence in a course of performance rendered under this Escrow and Security Agreement shall not be relevant to determine the meaning of this Escrow and Security Agreement even though the accepting or acquiescing party had knowledge of the nature of the performance and opportunity for objection.

14.9 Continuing Security Interest; Termination. (a) This Escrow and Security Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in and to the Collateral and shall, unless otherwise provided in the Indenture or in this Escrow and Security Agreement, remain in full force and effect until the payment in full in cash of the Obligations. This Escrow and Security Agreement shall be binding upon the Pledgor, its transferees, successors and assigns, and shall inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Escrow Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Escrow Agent, the Trustee, the Initial Purchasers, the Holders of the Notes and their respective successors, transferees and assigns.

(b) This Escrow and Security Agreement shall terminate upon the payment in full in cash of the Obligations or release of all Collateral to the Pledgor in accordance with the terms of this Escrow and Security Agreement. At such time and upon the written instruction of the Trustee, the Escrow Agent shall reassign and redeliver to the Pledgor all of the Collateral hereunder that has not been sold, disposed of, retained or applied by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms of this Escrow and Security Agreement and the Indenture. Such reassignment and redelivery shall be without warranty by or recourse to the Escrow Agent in its capacity as such, except as to the absence of any Liens on the Collateral created by or on account of actions of the Escrow Agent, and shall be at the reasonable expense of the Pledgor.

14.10 Assignment. No party may assign any of its rights or obligations under this Escrow and Security Agreement without the written consent of the other parties.

14.11 Survival Provisions. All representations, warranties and covenants of the Pledgor contained herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Escrow and Security Agreement and shall terminate only upon the termination of this Escrow and Security Agreement. The obligations of the Pledgor under Sections 10 and 12 hereof shall survive the termination of this Escrow and Security Agreement and the resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent.

14.12 Waivers. The Pledgor waives presentment and demand for payment of the Obligations, protest and notice of dishonor or default with respect to the Obligations, and all other notices to which the Pledgor might otherwise be entitled, except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in the Indenture. Further, each of the parties represents and warrants to the Escrow Agent that it is not a hedge fund. If any of the parties is a hedge fund that is not sponsored by a registered investment advisor, such party agrees to enter into the form of Due Diligence Agreement provided by the Escrow Agent.

14.13 USA PATRIOT Act. The Pledgor shall provide to the Escrow Agent such information as Escrow Agent may reasonably require to permit Escrow Agent to comply with its obligations under the federal USA PATRIOT Act (Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001). The Escrow Agent shall not credit any amount of interest or investment proceeds earned on the Escrowed Funds, or make any payment of all or a portion of the Escrowed Funds, to any person unless and until such person has provided to Escrow Agent such documents as the Escrow Agent may require to permit the Escrow Agent to comply with its obligations under such Act.

14.14 Final Expression. This Escrow and Security Agreement, together with the terms of the Indenture expressly referred to herein, is intended by the parties as a final expression of this Escrow and Security Agreement and is intended as a complete and exclusive statement of the terms and conditions thereof.

14.15 Rights of Holders of the Notes. No Holder of Notes shall have any independent rights hereunder other than those rights granted to individual Holders of the Notes pursuant to Section 6.07 of the Indenture; provided that nothing in this subsection shall limit any rights granted to the Escrow Agent under the Notes or the Indenture.

14.16 Merger; Consolidation of Escrow Agent. Any corporation into which the Escrow Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Escrow Agent will be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the business of the Escrow Agent will be the successor of the Escrow Agent hereunder without the execution or filing of any paper with any party hereto or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto except where an instrument of transfer or assignment is required by law to effect such succession, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

14.17 GOVERNING LAW; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THIS ESCROW AND SECURITY AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. THE ESCROW AGENT’S JURISDICTION FOR PURPOSES OF SECTIONS 8-110

AND 9-304 OF THE NEW YORK UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE WILL BE THE STATE OF NEW YORK. THE PLEDGOR HEREBY SUBMITS TO THE PERSONAL JURISDICTION OF, AND AGREES THAT ALL PROCEEDINGS RELATING HERETO WILL BE BROUGHT IN, COURTS LOCATED WITHIN, THE CITY AND STATE OF NEW YORK. THE PLEDGOR WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF PROCESS AND CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS BY CERTIFIED OR REGISTERED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, DIRECTED TO IT AT THE ADDRESS LAST SPECIFIED FOR NOTICES HEREUNDER, AND SUCH SERVICE WILL BE DEEMED COMPLETED TEN (10) CALENDAR DAYS AFTER THE SAME IS SO MAILED. EACH OF THE PLEDGOR, THE ESCROW AGENT, THE TRUSTEE AND THE INITIAL PURCHASERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS ESCROW AND SECURITY AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

SECTION 15. Security Procedures. In the event funds transfer instructions are given (other than in writing at the time of execution of this Escrow and Security Agreement, as indicated in Exhibit A attached hereto), whether in writing, by telecopier or otherwise, the Escrow Agent is authorized to seek confirmation of such instructions by telephone call-back to the person or persons designated on schedule 1 hereto (“Schedule 1”), and the Escrow Agent may rely upon the confirmation of anyone purporting to be the person or persons so designated. The Escrow Agent and the beneficiary’s bank in any funds transfer may rely solely upon any account numbers or similar identifying numbers provided by the Pledgor, the Representative and the Initial Purchasers to identify (i) the beneficiary, (ii) the beneficiary’s bank or (iii) an intermediary bank. The Escrow Agent may apply any of the Escrowed Funds for any payment order it executes using any such identifying number, even when its use may result in a person other than the beneficiary being paid, or the transfer of funds to a bank other than the beneficiary’s bank or an intermediary bank designated. The parties to this Escrow and Security Agreement acknowledge that such security procedure is commercially reasonable.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Pledgor, Trustee, Escrow Agent and the Initial Purchasers have each caused this Escrow and Security Agreement to be duly executed and delivered as of the date first above written.
