(ii) to transfer all or any part of the Collateral into the Pledgee’s name or the name of its nominee or nominees;

(iii) to vote all or any part of the Collateral (whether or not transferred into the name of the Pledgee) and give all consents, waivers and ratifications in respect of the Collateral and otherwise act with respect thereto as though it were the outright owner thereof (each Pledgor hereby irrevocably constituting and appointing the Pledgee the proxy and attorney-in-fact of such Pledgor, with full power of substitution to do so);

(iv) at any time and from time to time to sell, assign and deliver, or grant options to purchase, all or any part of the Collateral, or any interest therein, at any public or private sale, without demand of performance, advertisement or notice of intention to sell or of the time or place of sale or adjournment thereof or to redeem or otherwise (all of which are hereby waived by each Pledgor), for cash, on credit or for other property, for immediate or future delivery without any assumption of credit risk, and for such price or prices and on such terms as the Pledgee in its absolute discretion may determine, provided that at least 10 days’ written notice of the time and place of any such sale shall be given to the Pledgors. The Pledgee shall not be obligated to make any such sale of Collateral regardless of whether any such notice of sale has theretofore been given. Each Pledgor hereby waives and releases to the fullest extent permitted by law any right or equity of redemption with respect to the Collateral, whether before or after sale hereunder, and all rights, if any, of marshalling the Collateral and any other security for the Obligations or otherwise. At any such sale, unless prohibited by applicable law, the Pledgee on behalf of the Secured Creditors may bid for and purchase all or any part of the Collateral so sold free from any such right or equity of redemption. Neither the Pledgee nor any other Secured Creditor shall be liable for failure to

collect or realize upon any or all of the Collateral or for any delay in so doing nor shall any of them be under any obligation to take any action whatsoever with regard thereto; and

(v) to set-off any and all Collateral against any and all Obligations.

8. REMEDIES, ETC., CUMULATIVE. Each and every right, power and remedy of the Pledgee provided for in this Agreement or in any other Secured Debt Agreement, or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other such right, power or remedy. The exercise or beginning of the exercise by the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor of any one or more of the rights, powers or remedies provided for in this Agreement or any other Secured Debt Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor of all such other rights, powers or remedies, and no failure or delay on the part of the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor to exercise any such right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof. No notice to or demand on any Pledgor in any case shall entitle it to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of any of the rights of the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. The Secured Creditors agree that this Agreement may be enforced only by the action of the Pledgee, in each case acting upon the instructions of the Required Lenders (or, after the date on which all Credit Document Obligations have been paid in full, the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Other Obligations) and that no other Secured Creditor shall have any right individually to seek to enforce or to enforce this Agreement or to realize upon the security to be granted hereby, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised by the Pledgee for the benefit of the Secured Creditors upon the terms of this Agreement.

9. APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS. (a) All monies collected by the Pledgee upon any sale or other disposition of the Collateral of each Pledgor, together with all other monies received by the Pledgee hereunder (except to the extent released in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement or any other Credit Document), shall be applied to the payment of the Obligations as follows:

(i) first, to the payment of all amounts owing the Pledgee of the type described in clauses (iii) and (iv) of Section 1.1;

(ii) second, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clause (i), an amount equal to the outstanding Primary Obligations (as defined below) constituting Credit Document Obligations shall be paid to the Lenders as provided in Section 9(d) hereof, with each Lender receiving an amount equal to such outstanding Primary Obligations constituting Credit Document Obligations or, if the proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all such Primary Obligations constituting Credit Document Obligations, its Pro Rata Share (as defined below) of the amount remaining to be distributed;

(iii) third, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clauses (i) and (ii), an amount equal to the outstanding Primary Obligations constituting Other Obligations shall be paid to the Other Creditors as provided in Section 9(d) hereof, with each Other Creditor receiving an amount equal to such outstanding Primary

Obligations constituting Other Obligations or, if the proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all such Primary Obligations constituting Other Obligations, its Pro Rata Share of the amount remaining to be distributed;

(iv) fourth, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clauses (i) through (iii), inclusive, an amount equal to the outstanding Secondary Obligations shall be paid to the Secured Creditors as provided in Section 9(d) hereof, with each Secured Creditor receiving an amount equal to its outstanding Secondary Obligations or, if the proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all such Secondary Obligations, its Pro Rata Share of the amount remaining to be distributed; and

(v) fifth, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clauses (i) through (iv), inclusive, and following the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 20 hereof, to the relevant Pledgor or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

(b) For purposes of this Agreement, (x) “Pro Rata Share” shall mean, when calculating a Secured Creditor’s portion of any distribution or amount, that amount (expressed as a percentage) equal to a fraction the numerator of which is the then unpaid amount of such Secured Creditor’s Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, and the denominator of which is the then outstanding amount of all Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, (y) “Primary Obligations” shall mean (i) in the case of the Credit Document Obligations, all principal of, and interest on, all Loans and all fees, costs and expenses incurred under the Credit Agreement with respect thereto and (ii) in the case of the Other Obligations, all amounts due under such Interest Rate Protection Agreements and Other Hedging Agreements (other than indemnities, fees (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) and similar obligations and liabilities) and (z) “Secondary Obligations” shall mean all Obligations other than Primary Obligations.

(c) When payments to Secured Creditors are based upon their respective Pro Rata Shares, the amounts received by such Secured Creditors hereunder shall be applied (for purposes of making determinations under this Section 9 only) (i) first, to their Primary Obligations and (ii) second, to their Secondary Obligations. If any payment to any Secured Creditor of its Pro Rata Share of any distribution would result in overpayment to such Secured Creditor, such excess amount shall instead be distributed in respect of the unpaid Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, of the other Secured Creditors, with each Secured Creditor whose Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, have not been paid in full to receive an amount equal to such excess amount multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the unpaid Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, of such Secured Creditor and the denominator of which is the unpaid Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, of all Secured Creditors entitled to such distribution.

(d) All payments required to be made hereunder shall be made (x) if to the Lender Creditors, to the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement for the account of the Lender Creditors, and (y) if to the Other Creditors, to the trustee, paying agent or other similar representative (each a “Representative”) for the Other Creditors or, in the absence of such a Representative, directly to the Other Creditors.

(e) For purposes of applying payments received in accordance with this Section 9, the Pledgee shall be entitled to rely upon (i) the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement and (ii) the Representative for the Other Creditors or, in the absence of such a Representative, upon the Other Creditors for a determination (which the Administrative Agent, each Representative for any Other Creditors and the Secured Creditors agree (or shall agree) to provide upon request of the Pledgee) of the outstanding Primary Obligations and Secondary Obligations owed to the Lender Creditors or the Other Creditors, as the case may be. Unless it has actual knowledge (including by way of written notice from a Lender Creditor or an Other Creditor) to the contrary, the Administrative Agent and each Representative, in furnishing information pursuant to the preceding sentence, and the Pledgee, in acting hereunder, shall be entitled to assume that no Secondary Obligations are outstanding. Unless it has actual knowledge (including by way of written notice from an Other Creditor) to the contrary, the Pledgee, in acting hereunder, shall be entitled to assume that no Interest Rate Protection Agreements are in existence.

(f) It is understood and agreed that each Pledgor shall remain jointly and severally liable to the extent of any deficiency between the amount of the proceeds of the Collateral pledged by it hereunder and the aggregate amount of the Obligations of such Pledgor.

10. PURCHASERS OF COLLATERAL. Upon any sale of the Collateral by the Pledgee hereunder (whether by virtue of the power of sale herein granted, pursuant to judicial process or otherwise), the receipt of the Pledgee or the officer making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold, and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid over to the Pledgee or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication or nonapplication thereof.

11. INDEMNITY. Each Pledgor jointly and severally agrees (i) to indemnify and hold harmless the Pledgee and each other Secured Creditor and their respective successors, assigns, employees, agents and affiliates (individually an “Indemnitee,” and collectively the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all claims, demands, losses, judgments and liabilities (including liabilities for penalties) of whatsoever kind or nature, and (ii) to reimburse each Indemnitee for all reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, in each case growing out of or resulting from this Agreement or the exercise by any Indemnitee of any right or remedy granted to it hereunder or under any other Secured Debt Agreement (but excluding any claims, demands, losses, judgments and liabilities or expenses to the extent incurred by reason of gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision)). In no event shall the Pledgee be liable, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on its part, for any matter or thing in connection with this Agreement other than to account for monies actually received by it in accordance with the terms hereof. If and to the extent that the obligations of any Pledgor under this Section 11 are unenforceable for any reason, such Pledgor hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under applicable law.

12. PLEDGEE NOT A PARTNER OR LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY MEMBER. (a) Nothing herein shall be construed to make the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor liable as a member of any limited liability company or as a partner of any partnership and neither the Pledgee nor any other Secured Creditor by virtue of this Agreement or otherwise (except

as referred to in the following sentence) shall have any of the duties, obligations or liabilities of a member of any limited liability company or partnership. The parties hereto expressly agree that, unless the Pledgee shall become the absolute owner of Collateral consisting of a Limited Liability Company Interest or Partnership Interest pursuant hereto, this Agreement shall not be construed as creating a partnership or joint venture among the Pledgee, any other Secured Creditor, any Pledgor and/or any other Person.

(b) Except as provided in the last sentence of paragraph (a) of this Section 12, the Pledgee, by accepting this Agreement, did not intend to become a member of any limited liability company or a partner of any partnership or otherwise be deemed to be a co-venturer with respect to any Pledgor, any limited liability company, partnership and/or any other Person either before or after an Event of Default shall have occurred. The Pledgee shall have only those powers set forth herein and the Secured Creditors shall assume none of the duties, obligations or liabilities of a member of any limited liability company or as a partner of any partnership or any Pledgor except as provided in the last sentence of paragraph (a) of this Section 12.

(c) The Pledgee and the other Secured Creditors shall not be obligated to perform or discharge any obligation of any Pledgor as a result of the pledge hereby effected.

(d) The acceptance by the Pledgee of this Agreement, with all the rights, powers, privileges and authority so created, shall not at any time or in any event obligate the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor to appear in or defend any action or proceeding relating to the Collateral to which it is not a party, or to take any action hereunder or thereunder, or to expend any money or incur any expenses or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability under the Collateral.

13. FURTHER ASSURANCES; POWER-OF-ATTORNEY. (a) Each Pledgor agrees that it will join with the Pledgee in executing and, at such Pledgor’s own expense, file and refile under the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law such financing statements, continuation statements and other documents in such offices as the Pledgee may deem reasonably necessary and wherever required by law in order to perfect and preserve the Pledgee’s security interest in the Collateral and hereby authorizes the Pledgee to file financing statements (including, without limitation, ‘all assets’ financing statements) and amendments thereto relative to all or any part of the Collateral without the signature of such Pledgor where permitted by law, and agrees to do such further acts and things and to execute and deliver to the Pledgee such additional conveyances, assignments, agreements and instruments as the Pledgee may reasonably require or deem necessary to carry into effect the purposes of this Agreement or to further assure and confirm unto the Pledgee its rights, powers and remedies hereunder.

(b) Each Pledgor hereby appoints the Pledgee such Pledgor’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Pledgor and in the name of such Pledgor or otherwise, to act from time to time solely after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default in the Pledgee’s reasonable discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument which the Pledgee may deem reasonably necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement.

14. THE PLEDGEE AS AGENT. The Pledgee will hold in accordance with this Agreement all items of the Collateral at any time received under this Agreement. It is expressly

understood and agreed by each Secured Creditor that by accepting the benefits of this Agreement each such Secured Creditor acknowledges and agrees that the obligations of the Pledgee as holder of the Collateral and interests therein and with respect to the disposition thereof, and otherwise under this Agreement, are only those expressly set forth in this Agreement and in Section 12 of the Credit Agreement. The Pledgee shall act hereunder on the terms and conditions set forth herein and in Section 13 of the Credit Agreement.

15. TRANSFER BY THE PLEDGORS. No Pledgor will sell or otherwise dispose of, grant any option with respect to, or mortgage, pledge or otherwise encumber any of the Collateral or any interest therein (except as may be permitted in accordance with the terms of the Secured Debt Agreements).

16. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE PLEDGORS. Each Pledgor represents, warrants and covenants that:

(i) it is the legal, beneficial and record owner of, and has good and marketable title to, all Collateral pledged by such Pledgor hereunder and that it has sufficient interest in all Collateral pledged by such Pledgor hereunder in which a security interest is purported to be created hereunder for such security interest to attach (subject, in each case, to no pledge, lien, mortgage, hypothecation, security interest, charge, option, Adverse Claim or other encumbrance whatsoever, except the liens and security interests created by this Agreement and Permitted Liens);

(ii) it has the corporate, limited partnership or limited liability company power and authority, as the case may be, to pledge all the Collateral pledged by it pursuant to this Agreement;

(iv) except to the extent already obtained or made, or, in the case of any filings or recordings of the Security Documents (other than the Vessel Mortgages) executed on or before the Initial Borrowing Date, to be made within 10 days of the Initial Borrowing Date, no consent of any other party (including, without limitation, any stockholder, partner, member or creditor of such Pledgor or any of its Subsidiaries) and no consent, license, permit, approval or authorization of, exemption by, notice or report to, or registration, filing or declaration with, any governmental authority is required to be obtained by such Pledgor in connection with (a) the execution, delivery or performance by such Pledgor of this Agreement, (b) the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of this Agreement, (c) the perfection or enforceability of the Pledgee’s security interest in the Collateral pledged by such Pledgor hereunder or (d) except for compliance with or as may be required by applicable securities laws, the exercise by the Pledgee of any of its rights or remedies provided herein;

(vi) all of the Collateral has been duly and validly issued and acquired, is fully paid and non-assessable and is subject to no options to purchase or similar rights;

(vii) the pledge and collateral assignment to, and possession by, the Pledgee of the Collateral pledged by such Pledgor hereunder consisting of Certificated Securities pursuant to this Agreement creates a valid and perfected first priority security interest in such Certificated Securities, and the proceeds thereof, subject to no prior Lien or to any agreement purporting to grant to any third party a Lien on the property or assets of such Pledgor which would include the Certificated Securities, except for Permitted Liens, and the Pledgee is entitled to all the rights, priorities and benefits afforded by the UCC or other relevant law as enacted in any relevant jurisdiction to perfect security interests in respect of such Collateral; and;

17. JURISDICTION OF ORGANIZATION; CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICE; RECORDS. The jurisdiction of organization of each Pledgor is specified in Annex A hereto. The chief executive office of each Pledgor is located at the address specified in Annex F hereto. Each Pledgor will not change the jurisdiction of its organization or move its chief executive office except to such new jurisdiction or location as such Pledgor may establish in accordance with the last sentence of this Section 17. The originals of all documents in the possession of such Pledgor

evidencing all Collateral, including but not limited to all Limited Liability Company Interests and Partnership Interests, and the only original books of account and records of such Pledgor relating thereto are, and will continue to be, kept at such chief executive office as specified in Annex F hereto, or at such new locations as such Pledgor may establish in accordance with the last sentence of this Section 17. All Limited Liability Company Interests and Partnership Interests are, and will continue to be, maintained at, and controlled and directed (including, without limitation, for general accounting purposes) from, such chief executive office as specified in Annex F hereto, or such new locations as such Pledgor may establish in accordance with the last sentence of this Section 17. No Pledgor shall establish a new jurisdiction of organization or a new location for such chief executive offices until (i) it shall have given to the Pledgee not less than 15 days’ prior written notice of its intention so to do, providing clear details of such new jurisdiction of organization or new location, as the case may be, and providing such other information in connection therewith as the Pledgee may reasonably request, and (ii) with respect to such new jurisdiction of organization or new location, as the case may be, it shall have taken all action, satisfactory to the Pledgee (and, to the extent applicable, in accordance with Section 3.2 hereof), to maintain the security interest of the Pledgee in the Collateral intended to be granted hereby at all times fully perfected and in full force and effect. Promptly after establishing a new jurisdiction of organization or new location for such chief executive offices in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, the respective Pledgor shall deliver to the Pledgee a supplement to Annex A hereto or Annex F hereto, as the case may be, so as to cause such Annex A or F, as the case may be, to be complete and accurate.

18. PLEDGORS’ OBLIGATIONS ABSOLUTE, ETC. The obligations of each Pledgor under this Agreement shall be absolute and unconditional and shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be released, suspended, discharged, terminated or otherwise affected by, any circumstance or occurrence whatsoever, including, without limitation: (i) any renewal, extension, amendment or modification of or addition or supplement to or deletion from any Secured Debt Agreement or any other instrument or agreement referred to therein, or any assignment or transfer of any thereof; (ii) any waiver, consent, extension, indulgence or other action or inaction under or in respect of any such agreement or instrument including, without limitation, this Agreement; (iii) any furnishing of any additional security to the Pledgee or its assignee or any acceptance thereof or any release of any security by the Pledgee or its assignee; (iv) any limitation on any party’s liability or obligations under any such instrument or agreement or any invalidity or unenforceability, in whole or in part, of any such instrument or agreement or any term thereof; or (v) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition, adjustment, dissolution, liquidation or other like proceeding relating to any Pledgor or any Subsidiary of any Pledgor, or any action taken with respect to this Agreement by any trustee or receiver, or by any court, in any such proceeding, whether or not such Pledgor shall have notice or knowledge of any of the foregoing (it being understood and agreed that the enforcement hereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, restructuring, moratorium or other similar laws generally affecting creditors’ rights and by equitable principles).

19. REGISTRATION, ETC. If at any time when the Pledgee shall determine to exercise its right to sell all or any part of the Collateral consisting of Stock, Limited Liability Company Interests or Partnership Interests pursuant to Section 7 hereof, and the Collateral or the part thereof to be sold shall not, for any reason whatsoever, be effectively registered under the Securities Act, as then in effect, the Pledgee may, in its sole and absolute discretion, sell such Collateral, as the case may be, or part thereof by private sale in such manner and under such

circumstances as the Pledgee may deem necessary or advisable in order that such sale may legally be effected without such registration. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in any such event the Pledgee, in its sole and absolute discretion (i) may proceed to make such private sale notwithstanding that a registration statement for the purpose of registering such Collateral or part thereof shall have been filed under such Securities Act, (ii) may approach and negotiate with a single possible purchaser to effect such sale, and (iii) may restrict such sale to a purchaser who will represent and agree that such purchaser is purchasing for its own account, for investment, and not with a view to the distribution or sale of such Collateral or part thereof. In the event of any such sale, the Pledgee shall incur no responsibility or liability for selling all or any part of the Collateral at a price which the Pledgee, in its sole and absolute discretion, in good xxxxx xxxxx reasonable under the circumstances, notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially higher price might be realized if the sale were deferred until after registration as aforesaid.

20. TERMINATION; RELEASE. (a) After the Termination Date, this Agreement and the security interest created hereby shall terminate (provided that all indemnities set forth herein including, without limitation, in Section 11 hereof shall survive any such termination), and the Pledgee, at the request and expense of any Pledgor, will as promptly as practicable execute and deliver to such Pledgor a proper instrument or instruments acknowledging the satisfaction and termination of this Agreement, and will duly assign, transfer and deliver to such Pledgor (without recourse and without any representation or warranty) such of the Collateral as has not theretofore been sold or otherwise applied or released pursuant to this Agreement or any other Credit Document, together with any monies at the time held by the Pledgee or any of its sub-agents hereunder. As used in this Agreement, “Termination Date” shall mean the date upon which the Total Term Loan Commitment and the Total Revolving Loan Commitment under the Credit Agreement has been terminated and all Interest Rate Protection Agreements and Other Hedging Agreements applicable to Loans (and/or the Commitments) entered into with any Other Creditors have been terminated, no Note under the Credit Agreement is outstanding and all Loans thereunder have been repaid in full and all Obligations then due and payable have been paid in full.

(b) In the event that any part of the Collateral is sold in connection with a sale permitted by the Secured Debt Agreements (other than a sale to any Pledgor or any Subsidiary thereof) or is otherwise released with the consent of the Required Secured Creditors and the proceeds of such sale or sales or from such release are applied in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, to the extent required to be so applied, the Pledgee, at the request and expense of the respective Pledgor, will duly assign, transfer and deliver to such Pledgor (without recourse and without any representation or warranty) such of the Collateral (and releases therefor) as is then being (or has been) so sold or released and has not theretofore been released pursuant to this Agreement.

(c) At any time that a Pledgor desires to close a Concentration Account, it shall, with the consent of the Pledgee, redirect the contents of such Concentration Account to such other Concentration Account as the Pledgee shall specify to such Pledgor, and all future deposits shall be required to be made in such specified Concentration Account (the “Primary Concentration Account”).

(d) At any time that a Pledgor desires that the Pledgee assign, transfer and deliver Collateral (and releases therefor) as provided in Section 20(a) or (b) hereof, it shall deliver to the

Pledgee a certificate signed by a principal executive officer of such Pledgor stating that the release of the respective Collateral is permitted pursuant to such Section 20(a) or (b).

(e) The Pledgee shall have no liability whatsoever to any other Secured Creditor as a result of any release of Collateral by it in accordance with this Section 20.

21. NOTICES, ETC. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including telexed, telegraphic or telecopier communication) and mailed, telexed, telecopied or delivered: if to any Pledgor, at c/o General Maritime Corporation, 00 Xxxx 00^xx Xxxxxx, as agent, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx, 00000, with copies to Xxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxxxx LLP, 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 000000, Attention: Xxxxxx X.

22. WAIVER; AMENDMENT. None of the terms and conditions of this Agreement may be changed, waived, modified or varied in any manner whatsoever except in writing duly signed by each Pledgor directly affected thereby and the Pledgee (with the written consent of the Required Secured Creditors); provided, that any change, waiver, modification or variance affecting the rights and benefits of a single Class (as defined below) of Secured Creditors (and not all Secured Creditors in a like or similar manner) shall also require the written consent of the Requisite Creditors (as defined below) of such affected Class.

PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

Form of Control Agreement Regarding Deposit Accounts

CONTROL AGREEMENT REGARDING DEPOSIT ACCOUNTS (as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, this “Agreement”), dated as of , , among the undersigned assignor (the “Assignor”) NORDEA BANK FINLAND, PLC, New York Branch, not in its individual capacity but solely as Collateral Agent (the “Collateral Agent” and the “Deposit Account Bank”), as the bank (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC as in effect on the date hereof in the State of (the “UCC”)) with which one or more deposit accounts (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC) are maintained by the Assignor (with all such deposit accounts now or at any time in the future maintained by the Assignor with the Deposit Account Bank being herein called the “Deposit Accounts”).

W I T N E S S E T H :

WHEREAS, the Assignor, various other Assignors and the Collateral Agent have entered into a Pledge and Security Agreement, dated as of July 1, 2004 (as amended, amended and restated, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “Pledge and Security Agreement”), under which, among other things, in order to secure the payment of the Obligations (as defined in the Pledge and Security Agreement), the Assignor has granted a first priority security interest to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors (as defined in the Pledge and Security Agreement) in all of the right, title and interest of the Assignor in and into any and all deposit accounts (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC) and in all monies, securities, instruments and other investments deposited therein from time to time (collectively, herein called the “Collateral”); and

WHEREAS, the Assignor desires that the Deposit Account Bank enter into this Agreement in order to establish “control” (as defined in Section 9-104 of the UCC) in each Deposit Account at any time or from time to time maintained with the Deposit Account Bank, and to provide for the rights of the parties under this Agreement with respect to such Deposit Accounts;

1. Assignor’s Dealings with Deposit Accounts; Notice of Exclusive Control. Until the Deposit Account Bank shall have received from the Collateral Agent a Notice of Exclusive Control (as defined below), the Assignor shall be entitled to present items drawn on and otherwise to withdraw or direct the disposition of funds from the Deposit Accounts and give instructions in respect of the Deposit Accounts; provided, however, that the Assignor may not, and the Deposit Account Bank agrees that it shall not permit the Assignor to, without the Collateral Agent’s prior written consent, close any Deposit Account. If upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (as defined in the Pledge and Security Agreement) the Collateral Agent shall give to the Deposit Account Bank a notice of

the Collateral Agent’s exclusive control of the Deposit Accounts, which notice states that it is a “Notice of Exclusive Control” (a “Notice of Exclusive Control”), only the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to withdraw funds from the Deposit Accounts, to give any instructions in respect of the Deposit Accounts and any funds held therein or credited thereto or otherwise to deal with the Deposit Accounts.

2. Collateral Agent’s Right to Give Instructions as to Deposit Accounts. (a) Notwithstanding the foregoing or any separate agreement that the Assignor may have with the Deposit Account Bank, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default for purposes of this Agreement, at any time to give the Deposit Account Bank instructions as to the withdrawal or disposition of any funds from time to time credited to any Deposit Account, or as to any other matters relating to any Deposit Account or any other Collateral, without further consent from the Assignor. The Assignor hereby irrevocably authorizes and instructs the Deposit Account Bank, and the Deposit Account Bank hereby agrees, to comply with any such instructions from the Collateral Agent without any further consent from the Assignor. Such instructions may include the giving of stop payment orders for any items being presented to any Deposit Account for payment. The Deposit Account Bank shall be fully entitled to rely on, and shall comply with, such instructions from the Collateral Agent even if such instructions are contrary to any instructions or demands that the Assignor may give to the Deposit Account Bank. In case of any conflict between instructions received by the Deposit Account Bank from the Collateral Agent and the Assignor, the instructions from the Collateral Agent shall prevail.

(b) It is understood and agreed that the Deposit Account Bank’s duty to comply with instructions from the Collateral Agent regarding the Deposit Accounts is absolute, and the Deposit Account Bank shall be under no duty or obligation, nor shall it have the authority, to inquire or determine whether or not such instructions are in accordance with the First Priority Pledge and Security Agreement or any other Credit Document (as defined in the First Priority Pledge and Security Agreement), nor seek confirmation thereof from the Assignor or any other Person.

3. Assignor’s Exculpation and Indemnification of Depository Bank. The Assignor hereby irrevocably authorizes and instructs the Deposit Account Bank to follow instructions from the Collateral Agent regarding the Deposit Accounts even if the result of following such instructions from the Collateral Agent is that the Deposit Account Bank dishonors items presented for payment from any Deposit Account. The Assignor further confirms that the Deposit Account Bank shall have no liability to the Assignor for wrongful dishonor of such items in following such instructions from the Collateral Agent. The Deposit Account Bank shall have no duty to inquire or determine whether the Assignor’s obligations to the Collateral Agent are in default or whether the Collateral Agent is entitled, under any separate agreement between the Assignor and the Collateral Agent, to give any such instructions. The Assignor further agrees to be responsible for the Deposit Account Bank’s customary charges and to indemnify the Deposit Account Bank from and to hold the Deposit Account Bank harmless against any loss, cost or expense that the Deposit Account Bank may sustain or incur in acting upon instructions which the Deposit Account Bank believes in good faith to be instructions from

the Collateral Agent excluding any loss, cost or expense to the extent incurred as a direct result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Deposit Account Bank.

4. Subordination of Security Interests; Deposit Account Bank’s Recourse to Deposit Accounts. The Deposit Account Bank hereby subordinates any claims and security interests it may have against, or with respect to, any Deposit Account at any time established or maintained with it by the Assignor (including any amounts, investments, instruments or other Collateral from time to time on deposit therein) to the security interests of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Creditors) therein, and agrees that no amounts shall be charged by it to, or withheld or set-off or otherwise recouped by it from, any Deposit Account of the Assignor or any amounts, investments, instruments or other Collateral from time to time on deposit therein; provided that the Deposit Account Bank may, however, from time to time debit the Deposit Accounts for any of its customary charges in maintaining the Deposit Accounts or for reimbursement for the reversal of any provisional credits granted by the Deposit Account Bank to any Deposit Account, to the extent, in each case, that the Assignor has not separately paid or reimbursed the Deposit Account Bank therefor.

5. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of Deposit Account Bank. The Deposit Account Bank represents and warrants to the Collateral Agent that:

(a) The Deposit Account Bank constitutes a “bank” (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC), that the jurisdiction (determined in accordance with Section 9-304 of the UCC) of the Deposit Account Bank for purposes of each Deposit Account maintained by the Assignor with the Deposit Account Bank shall be one or more States within the United States.

(b) The Deposit Account Bank shall not permit any Assignor to establish any demand, time, savings, passbook or other account with it which does not constitute a “deposit account” (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC).

(c) The account agreements between the Deposit Account Bank and the Assignor relating to the establishment and general operation of the Deposit Accounts provide, whether specifically or generally, that the laws of New York govern secured transactions relating to the Deposit Accounts and that the Deposit Account Bank’s “jurisdiction” for purposes of Section 9-304 of the UCC in respect of the Deposit Accounts is New York. The Deposit Account Bank will not, without the Collateral Agent’s prior written consent, amend any such account agreement so that the Deposit Account Bank’s jurisdiction for purposes of Section 9-304 of the UCC is other than a jurisdiction permitted pursuant to preceding clause (a). All account agreements in respect of each Deposit Account in existence on the date hereof are listed on Annex A hereto and copies of all such account agreements have been furnished to the Collateral Agent. The Deposit Account Bank will promptly furnish to the Collateral Agent a copy of the account agreement for each Deposit Account hereafter established by the Deposit Account Bank for the Assignor.

(d) The Deposit Account Bank has not entered and will not enter, into any agreement with any other Person by which the Deposit Account Bank is obligated to comply with instructions from such other Person as to the disposition of funds from any Deposit Account or other dealings with any Deposit Account or other of the Collateral.

(e) On the date hereof the Deposit Account Bank maintains no Deposit Accounts for the Assignor other than the Deposit Accounts specifically identified in Annex A hereto.

(f) Any items or funds received by the Deposit Account Bank for the Assignor’s account will be credited to said Deposit Accounts specified in paragraph (e) above or to any other Deposit Accounts hereafter established by the Deposit Account Bank for the Assignor in accordance with this Agreement.

(g) The Deposit Account Bank will promptly notify the Collateral Agent of each Deposit Account hereafter established by the Deposit Account Bank for the Assignor (which notice shall specify the account number of such Deposit Account and the location at which the Deposit Account is maintained), and each such new Deposit Account shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all respects.

6. Deposit Account Statements and Information. The Deposit Account Bank agrees, and is hereby authorized and instructed by the Assignor, to furnish to the Collateral Agent, at its address indicated below, copies of all account statements and other information relating to each Deposit Account that the Deposit Account Bank sends to the Assignor and to disclose to the Collateral Agent all information requested by the Collateral Agent regarding any Deposit Account.

7. Conflicting Agreements. This Agreement shall have control over any conflicting agreement between the Deposit Account Bank and the Assignor.

8. Merger or Consolidation of Deposit Account Bank. Without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, any bank into which the Deposit Account Bank may be merged or with which it may be consolidated, or any bank resulting from any merger to which the Deposit Account Bank shall be a party, shall be the successor of the Deposit Account Bank hereunder and shall be bound by all provisions hereof which are binding upon the Deposit Account Bank and shall be deemed to affirm as to itself all representations and warranties of the Deposit Account Bank contained herein.
