ARTICLE II

Guarantee

Section 2.01 Guarantee.

(a) Each of the Guarantors hereby jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees to the Guaranteed Creditors and each of their respective permitted successors, indorsees, transferees and assigns, the prompt and complete payment in cash and performance by the Borrowers when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Borrower Obligations. This is a guarantee of payment and not collection and the liability of each Guarantor is primary and not secondary.

(b) Anything herein or in any other Guaranteed Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder and under the other Guaranteed Documents shall be limited to the maximum amount as will result in the Obligations of such Guarantor under this Agreement not constituting a fraudulent transfer or fraudulent conveyance for purposes of any Debtor Relief Law to the extent applicable to this Agreement and the Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder (after giving effect to the right of contribution established in Section 2.02).

(c) Each Guarantor agrees that the Borrower Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the amount of the liability of such Guarantor hereunder without impairing the guarantee contained in this ARTICLE II or affecting the rights and remedies of any Guaranteed Creditor hereunder.

(d) Each Guarantor agrees that if the maturity of the Borrower Obligations is accelerated by bankruptcy or otherwise, such maturity shall also be deemed accelerated for the purpose of this guarantee without demand or notice to such Guarantor. The guarantee contained in this ARTICLE II shall remain in full force and effect until all the Borrower Obligations shall have been satisfied by payment in full in cash and all Commitments are terminated notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of the Credit Agreement, no Borrower Obligations may be outstanding.

(e) No payment made by any Obligor, any other guarantor or any other Person or received or collected by any Guaranteed Creditor from any Obligor, any other guarantor or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of the Borrower Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of any Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment (other than any payment made by such Guarantor in respect of the Borrower Obligations or any payment received or collected from such Guarantor in respect of the Borrower Obligations), remain liable for the Borrower Obligations up to the maximum liability of such Guarantor hereunder until the Borrower Obligations are paid in full in cash and all of the Commitments have expired or are terminated.

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor hereunder which has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. Each Guarantor’s right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2.03. The provisions of this Section 2.02 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor to the Guaranteed Creditors, and each Guarantor shall remain liable to the Guaranteed Creditors for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder.

Section 2.03 No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment made by any Guarantor hereunder or any set-off or application of funds of any Guarantor by any Guaranteed Creditor, no Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of any Guaranteed Creditor against any Borrower or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by any Guaranteed Creditor for the payment of the Borrower Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any indemnity, exoneration, participation, contribution or reimbursement from any Borrower or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Guaranteed Creditors on account of the Borrower Obligations are irrevocably paid in full in cash and all of the Commitments have expired or are terminated. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Borrower Obligations shall not have been irrevocably paid in full in cash or any of the Commitments are in effect, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for the Guaranteed Creditors, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Collateral Agent in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor to the Collateral Agent, if required), to be applied against the Borrower Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with Section 10.02(c) of the Credit Agreement or the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement if then in effect.

Section 2.04 Amendments, Etc. with respect to the Borrower Obligations.

offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by, or any indulgence or forbearance in respect thereof granted by, any Guaranteed Creditor; (c) any Guaranteed Document may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Guaranteed Creditors may deem advisable from time to time, subject to Section 12.02(b) of the Credit Agreement and the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement if then in effect; (d) any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by any Guaranteed Creditor for the payment of the Borrower Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released; (e) any additional guarantors, makers or endorsers of the Borrower Obligations may from time to time be obligated on the Borrower Obligations or any additional security or collateral for the payment and performance of the Borrower Obligations may from time to time secure the Borrower Obligations; (f) any change in applicable law, rule or regulation or any event affecting any term of the Borrower Obligations; and (g) any other event shall occur which constitutes a defense or release of sureties generally.

Section 5.01 Covenants in Credit Agreement. In the case of each Guarantor, such Guarantor shall take, or shall refrain from taking, as the case may be, each action that is necessary to be taken or not taken, as the case may be, so that no Default is caused by the failure to take such action or to refrain from taking such action by such Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries.

Section 5.02 Maintenance of Perfected Security Interest; Further Documentation.

(a) The Obligors shall maintain the security interest created by this Agreement as a perfected security interest having at least the priority described in Section 4.03 and shall defend such security interest against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever except Permitted Liens; provided that, (i) with respect to Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts and Commodity Accounts, in each case, that do not constitute Excluded Accounts, the Obligors shall establish Account Control Agreements with respect to such Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts and Commodity Accounts as soon as commercially practicable and in any event (x) with respect to such Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts and Commodity Accounts existing as of the Effective Date, within sixty (60) days after the date hereof and (y) with respect to such Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts and Commodity Accounts opened or otherwise acquired after the Effective Date, within sixty (60) days after the date that such Deposit Account, Securities Account or Commodity Account was opened or otherwise acquired by such Obligor; provided that, the overnight balance in Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts or Commodity Accounts referred to in clause (y) of this proviso over which there is not an Account Control Agreement shall not exceed, together with Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts or Commodity Accounts excluded pursuant to clause (v) of the definition of “Excluded Accounts”, $10,000,000 and (ii) the Obligors shall cause any cash that is generated by, or otherwise arises from, Vessel Collateral or Accounts arising therefrom to be promptly deposited into a Deposit Account of an Obligor.

(b) At any time and from time to time, upon the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, the Obligors will furnish to the Collateral Agent and the Lenders from time to time statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Collateral and such other reports in connection with the Collateral as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail.

(c) At any time and from time to time, upon the written request of the Collateral Agent, and at the sole expense of the Borrowers, the Obligors will promptly and duly execute and deliver, and have recorded, such further instruments and documents and take such further actions as the Collateral Agent may reasonably deem necessary for the purpose of obtaining or preserving the full benefits of this Agreement (including, without limitation, the perfection and Lien priority set forth herein) and of the rights and powers herein granted, including, without limitation, the filing of any financing or continuation statements under the UCC (or other similar laws) in effect in any jurisdiction with respect to the security interests created hereby.

Section 5.03 Changes in Locations, Name, Etc. Each Obligor recognizes that financing statements pertaining to the Collateral have been or may be filed where such Obligor maintains any Collateral or is organized. No Obligor will cause or permit any change in its (a) corporate name or in any trade name used to identify it in the conduct of its business or in the ownership of its Properties, (b) the location of its chief executive office or principal place of business, (c) its identity or form of organization or in the jurisdiction in which it is formed, (d) its jurisdiction of organization or its organizational identification number in such jurisdiction of organization or (e) its federal taxpayer identification number, unless, in each case, it shall have (i) notified the Collateral Agent in writing of such change at least five (5) Business Days after the effective date of such change (or such other time period agreed to in writing by the Collateral Agent), and (ii) taken, or caused to be taken, all action necessary and appropriate for the purpose of maintaining the perfection and priority of the Collateral Agent’s security interests under this Agreement. In any notice furnished pursuant to this Section 5.03, the Obligor will expressly state in a conspicuous manner that the notice is required by this Agreement and contains facts that may require additional filings of financing statements or other notices for the purposes of continuing perfection of the Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Collateral.

Section 5.04 Delivery of the Pledged Collateral. Each Obligor that has pledged Pledged Collateral hereunder agrees to deliver or cause to be delivered to the Collateral Agent (or the First Lien Collateral Agent as such and as gratuitous bailee under the Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement) any and all certificates evidencing Pledged Collateral, if any (accompanied by undated stock powers duly executed in blank and reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and by such other instruments and documents as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request) within (i) the timeframe required under Section 8.14 of the Credit Agreement and (ii) promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days or such later date as the Required Lenders reasonably agree (it being understood that if approved by the First Lien Required Lenders, it shall be deemed approved by the Required Lenders)) after the acquisition of additional Equity Interests in respect of any Pledged Collateral. Each delivery of Pledged

Collateral shall be accompanied by a schedule describing such Pledged Collateral, which schedule shall be attached hereto as Schedule 5 and made a part hereof; provided that failure to attach any such schedule hereto shall not affect the validity of such pledge of such Pledged Securities. Each schedule so delivered shall supplement any prior schedules so delivered. Each Obligor acknowledges and agrees that (i) solely to the extent any interest in any limited liability company or limited partnership controlled now or in the future by such Obligor (or by such Obligor and one or more other Obligors) that constitutes Pledged Collateral and is pledged hereunder is a “security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the UCC and is governed by Article 8 of the UCC, such interest shall be certificated and such certificate shall be delivered to the Collateral Agent in accordance with this Section 5.04 and (ii) each such interest shall at all times hereafter continue to be such a security and represented by such certificate.

ARTICLE VI

Remedial Provisions

Section 6.01 Code and Other Remedies.

In each case, subject to the terms and conditions of the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement if then in effect:

(a) Subject to the Intercreditor Agreements, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Guaranteed Creditors, (i) may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to them in this Agreement, the other Guaranteed Documents and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Obligations, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC or any other applicable law or otherwise available at law or equity and (ii) without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Collateral Agent, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below, which cannot be waived by law and any notice that is expressly required under this Agreement or any other Guaranteed Document) to or upon any Obligor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived to the extent permitted by applicable law), may in such circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, grant option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of any Guaranteed Creditor or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as the Required Lenders may deem advisable and at such prices as the Required Lenders may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. Any Guaranteed Creditor shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in any Obligor, which right or equity is hereby waived and released. Subject to the Intercreditor Agreements, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, each Obligor further agrees, at the Collateral Agent’s request (acting at the written direction of the Required Lenders or the requisite Guaranteed Creditors as provided in the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement if then in effect), to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Collateral Agent at places which the

Collateral Agent (acting at the written direction of the Required Lenders or the requisite Guaranteed Creditors as provided in the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement if then in effect) shall reasonably select, whether at such Obligor’s premises or elsewhere. Any such sale or transfer by the Collateral Agent (acting at the written direction of the Required Lenders or the requisite Guaranteed Creditors as provided in the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement if then in effect) either to itself or to any other Person shall be absolutely free from any claim of right by Obligor, including any equity or right of redemption, stay or appraisal which Obligor has or may have under any rule of law, regulation or statute now existing or hereafter adopted (and such Obligor hereby waives any rights it may have in respect thereof). Upon any such sale or transfer, the Collateral Agent (acting at the written direction of the Required Lenders or the requisite Guaranteed Creditors as provided in the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement if then in effect) shall have the right to deliver, assign and transfer to the purchaser or transferee thereof the Collateral so sold or transferred. The Collateral Agent (acting at the written direction of the Required Lenders or the requisite Guaranteed Creditors as provided in the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement if then in effect) shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this Section 6.01, after deducting all reasonable fees, costs and expenses of every kind incurred in connection therewith or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Collateral Agent and the Guaranteed Creditors hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations, in accordance with Section 10.02(c) of the Credit Agreement (or the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement if then in effect), and only after such application and after the payment by the Collateral Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law, including, without limitation, Section 9-615 of the UCC, need the Collateral Agent account for the surplus, if any, to any Obligor. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Obligor waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Collateral Agent or any Guaranteed Creditor arising out of the exercise by them of any rights hereunder, except where arising as a result of the Collateral Agent’s or any Guaranteed Creditor’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least ten (10) days before such sale or other disposition.

(b) In the event that the Collateral Agent (acting at the written direction of the Required Lenders or the requisite Guaranteed Creditors as provided in the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement if then in effect) elects not to sell the Collateral, the Collateral Agent retains its rights to dispose of or utilize the Collateral or any part or parts thereof in any manner authorized or permitted by law or in equity, and to apply the proceeds of the same towards payment of the Obligations. Each and every method of disposition of the Collateral described in this Agreement shall constitute disposition in a commercially reasonable manner.

(c) The Collateral Agent may appoint any Person as agent to perform any act or acts necessary or incident to any sale or transfer of the Collateral.

Except when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, neither the Collateral Agent nor any Guaranteed Creditor shall contact or communicate with, or attempt to contact or communicate with any customer of any Obligor in connection with the Collateral except with the participation of a Responsible Officer of such Obligor.

Section 6.02 Waiver; Deficiency. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Obligor waives and agrees not to assert any rights or privileges which it may acquire under the UCC, except to the extent arising solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Collateral Agent; provided, however, that the Obligors do not waive any rights or privileges to notice or the opportunity to cure otherwise provided under the Guaranteed Documents. Each Obligor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay its Obligations and the fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Collateral Agent or any Guaranteed Creditor to collect such deficiency. The officers, directors and managers, as applicable, of the Obligors shall in no event be personally liable for any such deficiency.

Section 6.03 Non-Judicial Enforcement. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Collateral Agent may enforce its rights hereunder without prior judicial process or judicial hearing, and to the extent permitted by law, each Obligor expressly waives any and all legal rights which might otherwise require the Collateral Agent to enforce its rights by judicial process.

Section 6.04 Pledged Collateral. In each case, subject to the terms and conditions of the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement if then in effect: (a) Subject to the Intercreditor Agreements, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, (i) the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Guaranteed Creditors, shall have the right (in its sole and absolute discretion or at the direction of the Required Lenders or the requisite Guaranteed Creditors as provided in the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement if then in effect) to hold the Pledged Collateral in the name of the applicable Obligor, endorsed or assigned in blank or in favor of the Collateral Agent or in its own name as pledgee or in the name of its nominee (as pledgee or as sub-agent), and each Obligor will promptly give to the Collateral Agent copies of any notices or other communications received by it with respect to Pledged Collateral registered in the name of such Obligor and (ii) the Collateral Agent shall at all times have the right to exchange the certificates representing Pledged Collateral for certificates of smaller or larger denominations for any reasonable purpose consistent with this Agreement.

(b) Each Obligor recognizes that in light of certain restrictions and limitations under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (such Securities Act and any such similar statute as from time to time in effect being called the “Federal Securities Laws”), the Collateral Agent may, with respect to any sale of the Pledged Collateral, limit the purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire such Pledged Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Obligor acknowledges and agrees that in light of such restrictions and limitations, the Collateral Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion, (a) may proceed to make such a sale whether or not a registration statement for the purpose of registering such Pledged Collateral or part thereof shall have been filed under the Federal Securities Laws to the extent the Collateral Agent has determined that such a registration is not required by any requirement of law and (b) may approach and negotiate with a limited number of potential purchasers (including a single potential purchaser) to effect such sale. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral Agent may not engage in sale or sales to “Aliens,” as defined in the Parent Borrower’s Second Restated Certificate of Incorporation, that could result in the applicable Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower losing its status as a United States citizen within the meaning of Section 2 of the Shipping Act of 1916, as amended. Each Obligor

acknowledges and agrees that any such sale might result in prices and other terms less favorable to the seller than if such sale were a public sale without such restrictions. In the event of any such sale, the Collateral Agent and the other Guaranteed Creditors shall incur no responsibility or liability for selling all or any part of the Pledged Collateral at a price that the Collateral Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion, may in good xxxxx xxxx reasonable under the circumstances, notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially higher price might have been realized if the sale were deferred until after registration as aforesaid or if more than a limited number of purchasers (or a single purchaser) were approached.

ARTICLE VII

The Collateral Agent

Section 7.01 Collateral Agent’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact, Etc.

(a) Each Obligor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Obligor and in the name of such Obligor or in its own name, for the purposes of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, to take any and all reasonably appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be reasonably necessary or desirable to accomplish such purposes, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Obligor hereby gives the Collateral Agent the power and right, on behalf of such Obligor, without notice to or assent by such Obligor, to do any or all of the following, subject to the terms of this Agreement and any applicable Intercreditor Agreement:

(i) unless being disputed under Section 8.03 of the Credit Agreement, pay or discharge Taxes and Liens levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral, effect any repairs or any insurance called for by the terms of this Agreement or any other Guaranteed Document and pay all or any part of the premiums therefor and the costs thereof;

(ii) (A) direct any party liable for any payment under any of the Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to the Collateral Agent or as the Collateral Agent shall direct; (B) ask or demand for, collect, and receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral; (C) in the name of such Obligor or its own name, or otherwise, take possession of and indorse and collect any check, draft, note, acceptance or other instrument for the payment of moneys due with respect to any Collateral and commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral or any portion thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral; (D) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against such Obligor with respect to any Collateral; (E) settle, compromise or adjust any such suit, action or proceeding and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or releases as the Collateral Agent may deem appropriate; and (F) generally, sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though the Collateral Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and do, at the Collateral Agent’s option and such Obligor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Collateral Agent deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Collateral Agent’s and the Guaranteed Creditors’ security interests therein and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Obligor might do.

Anything in this Section 7.01(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, the Collateral Agent agrees that it will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney provided for in this Section 7.01(a) unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and it has received written direction from the Required Lenders (or the requisite Guaranteed Creditors as provided in the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement if then in effect) and in each case in accordance with the terms and conditions of any applicable Intercreditor Agreement.

(b) If any Obligor fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein within the applicable grace periods and as a result of such failure an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under any Guaranteed Document, the Collateral Agent, at its option, but without any obligation so to do, may perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions of any applicable Intercreditor Agreement.

(c) The fees and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection with actions undertaken as provided in this Section 7.01, together with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate specified in Section 3.02(c) of the Credit Agreement, but in no event to exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, from the date of payment by the Collateral Agent to the date reimbursed by the relevant Obligor, shall be payable by such Obligor to the Collateral Agent on demand.

(d) Each Obligor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue and in compliance hereof. All powers, authorizations and agencies contained in this Agreement are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated and the security interests created hereby are released.

Section 7.02 Duty of Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the UCC or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Collateral Agent deals with similar Property for its own account and shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which comparable secured parties accord comparable collateral. Neither the Collateral Agent, any Guaranteed Creditor nor any of their Related Parties shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Obligor or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent and the Guaranteed Creditors hereunder are solely to protect the Collateral Agent’s and the Guaranteed Creditors’ interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Collateral Agent or any Guaranteed Creditor to exercise any such powers. The Collateral Agent and the Guaranteed Creditors shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their Related Parties shall be responsible to any Obligor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. To the fullest extent

permitted by applicable law, the Collateral Agent shall be under no duty whatsoever to make or give any presentment, notice of dishonor, protest, demand for performance, notice of non-performance, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, or other notice or demand in connection with any Collateral or the Obligations (except any notice or demand that is expressly required under this Agreement or any other Guaranteed Document), or to take any steps necessary to preserve any rights against any Obligor or other Person or ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Collateral, whether or not it has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters. Each Obligor, to the extent permitted by applicable law, waives any right of marshaling in respect of any and all Collateral, and waives any right to require the Collateral Agent or any Guaranteed Creditor to proceed against any Obligor or other Person, exhaust any Collateral or enforce any other remedy which the Collateral Agent or any Guaranteed Creditor now has or may hereafter have against any Obligor or other Person.

Section 7.03 Filing of Financing Statements. Pursuant to the UCC and any other applicable law, each Obligor authorizes the Collateral Agent to file or record financing statements and other filing or recording documents or instruments with respect to the Collateral in such form and in such offices as the Required Lenders reasonably determine appropriate to perfect the security interests of the Collateral Agent under this Agreement. A photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement shall be sufficient as a financing statement or other filing or recording document or instrument for filing or recording in any jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Obligor acknowledges its obligation to file or record financing statements hereunder.

Section 7.04 Authority of Collateral Agent. Each Obligor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Collateral Agent under this Agreement with respect to any action taken by the Collateral Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Collateral Agent of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Agreement shall, as between the Collateral Agent and the Guaranteed Creditors, be governed by the Credit Agreement (or the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement if then in effect) and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the Collateral Agent and the Obligors, the Collateral Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Guaranteed Creditors with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and no Obligor shall be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority.

Section 7.05 Collateral Agent’s Appointment as Agent.

(a) The Collateral Agent has been appointed to act as Collateral Agent hereunder by the Guaranteed Creditors pursuant to the Credit Agreement or the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement, as applicable. The Collateral Agent shall be obligated, and shall have the right hereunder, to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights, and to take or refrain from taking any action (including the release or substitution of Collateral), solely in accordance with this Agreement and the other Guaranteed Documents; provided that the Collateral Agent shall exercise, or refrain from exercising, any remedies provided for in Section 6.01 hereof in accordance with the terms of any applicable Intercreditor Agreement.

(b) Subject to the terms and conditions of the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement if then in effect, the Collateral Agent shall initially be the same Person that is the collateral agent under the Credit Agreement and shall have the same rights, privileges, indemnities, protections and immunities hereunder as are afforded the collateral agent under the Credit Agreement, as if specifically set forth herein. Resignation and appointment of a successor Collateral Agent shall in each case occur as provided in the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement if then in effect and otherwise shall occur as provided in the Credit Agreement.

ARTICLE VIII

Subordination of Indebtedness

Section 8.01 Subordination of All Obligor Claims. As used herein, the term “Obligor Claims” shall mean all debts and obligations of any Borrower or any other Obligor to any Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower, whether such debts and obligations now exist or are hereafter incurred or arise, or whether the obligation of the debtor thereon be direct, contingent, primary, secondary, several, joint and several, or otherwise, and irrespective of whether such debts or obligations be evidenced by note, contract, open account, or otherwise, and irrespective of the Person or Persons in whose favor such debts or obligations may, at their inception, have been, or may hereafter be created, or the manner in which they have been or may hereafter be acquired by. After and during the continuation of an Event of Default, no Obligor shall receive or collect, directly or indirectly, from any obligor in respect thereof any amount upon the Obligor Claims.

Section 8.02 Claims in Bankruptcy. In the event of receivership, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, debtor’s relief, or other insolvency proceedings involving any Obligor, the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Collateral Agent and the Guaranteed Creditors shall have the right to prove their claim in any proceeding, so as to establish their rights hereunder and receive directly from the receiver, trustee or other court custodian, dividends and payments which would otherwise be payable upon Obligor Claims. Each Obligor hereby assigns such dividends and payments to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Guaranteed Creditors for application against the Borrower Obligations as provided under Section 10.02(c) of the Credit Agreement (or the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement if then in effect). Should any Agent or Guaranteed Creditor receive, for application upon the Obligations, any such dividend or payment which is otherwise payable to any Obligor, and which, as between such Obligors, shall constitute a credit upon the Obligor Claims, then upon payment in full in cash of the Borrower Obligations and the termination of all of the Commitments, the intended recipient shall become subrogated to the rights of the Collateral Agent and the Guaranteed Creditors to the extent that such payments to the Collateral Agent and the Guaranteed Creditors on the Obligor Claims have contributed toward the liquidation of the Obligations, and such subrogation shall be with respect to that proportion of the Obligations which would have been unpaid if the Collateral Agent and the Guaranteed Creditors had not received dividends or payments upon the Obligor Claims.

Section 8.03 Payments Held in Trust. In the event that notwithstanding Section 8.01 and Section 8.02, any Obligor should receive any funds, payments, claims or distributions which is prohibited by such Sections, then it agrees: (a) to hold in trust for the Collateral Agent and the Guaranteed Creditors an amount equal to the amount of all funds,

payments, claims or distributions so received, and (b) that it shall have absolutely no dominion over the amount of such funds, payments, claims or distributions except to pay them promptly to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Guaranteed Creditors; and each Obligor covenants promptly to pay the same to the Collateral Agent.

Section 8.04 Liens Subordinate. Each Obligor agrees that, until the Borrower Obligations are paid in full in cash and the termination of all of the Commitments, any Liens securing payment of the Obligor Claims shall be and remain inferior and subordinate to any Liens securing payment of the Obligations, regardless of whether such encumbrances in favor of such Obligor, the Collateral Agent or any Guaranteed Creditor presently exist or are hereafter created or attach. Without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent, no Obligor, during the period in which any of the Borrower Obligations are outstanding or the Commitments are in effect, shall (a) exercise or enforce any creditor’s right it may have against any debtor in respect of the Obligor Claims, or (b) foreclose, repossess, sequester or otherwise take steps or institute any action or proceeding (judicial or otherwise, including without limitation the commencement of or joinder in any liquidation, bankruptcy, rearrangement, debtor’s relief or insolvency proceeding) to enforce any Lien held by it.

Section 8.05 Notation of Records. Upon the request of the Required Lenders, all promissory notes and all accounts receivable ledgers or other evidence of the Obligor Claims accepted by or held by any Obligor shall contain a specific written notice thereon that the indebtedness evidenced thereby is subordinated under the terms of this Agreement.

ARTICLE IX

Miscellaneous

Section 9.01 Waiver. No failure on the part of the Collateral Agent or any Guaranteed Creditor to exercise and no delay in exercising, and no course of dealing with respect to, any right, power, privilege or remedy or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right, power, privilege or remedy under this Agreement or any other Guaranteed Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power, privilege or remedy under this Agreement or any other Guaranteed Document preclude or be construed as a waiver of any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power, privilege or remedy. The remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law or equity.

Section 9.02 Notices. All notices and other communications provided for herein shall be given in the manner and subject to the terms of Section 12.01 of the Credit Agreement or the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement if then in effect; provided that any such notice, request or demand to or upon any Guarantor shall be addressed to such Guarantor at its notice address set forth on Schedule 1.

Section 9.03 Payment of Expenses, Indemnities, Etc.

(a) Each Guarantor, jointly and severally, agrees to pay or reimburse each Guaranteed Creditor for all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such Person, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Collateral Agent or any Guaranteed Creditor,

in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement or any other Guaranteed Document, including, without limitation, all costs and expenses incurred in collecting against such Guarantor under the guarantee contained in ARTICLE II or otherwise enforcing or preserving any rights under this Agreement and the other Guaranteed Documents to which such Guarantor is a party.

(b) Each Guarantor, jointly and severally, agrees to pay, and to save the Guaranteed Creditors harmless from, any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, any and all Other Taxes which may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any of the Collateral or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(c) Each Guarantor, jointly and severally, agrees to pay, and to save the Guaranteed Creditors harmless from, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement to the extent any Borrower would be required to do so pursuant to Section 12.03 of the Credit Agreement or the applicable provisions of any Pari Passu Lien Documents then in effect.

Section 9.04 Amendments in Writing. None of the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except in accordance with Section 12.02 of the Credit Agreement and the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement if then in effect.

The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon the Obligors and their successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Guaranteed Creditors and their respective successors and assigns; provided that except as set forth in Section 12.04(a) of the Credit Agreement and any Pari Passu Lien Documents then in effect, no Obligor may assign, transfer or delegate any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent and the Guaranteed Creditors, and any such purported assignment, transfer or delegation shall be null and void.

Section 9.06 Survival; Revival; Reinstatement.

(a) All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by any Obligor herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered pursuant to this Agreement or any other Guaranteed Document to which it is a party shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Collateral Agent and the Lenders and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Collateral Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under any Guaranteed Document is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Section 9.03 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the resignation or removal of the Collateral Agent, the repayment of the Loans, the termination of the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement, any other Guaranteed Document or any provision hereof or thereof.

(b) To the extent that any payments on the Guarantor Obligations or proceeds of any Collateral are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, debtor in possession, receiver or other Person under any bankruptcy law, common law or equitable cause, then to such extent, the Guarantor Obligations so satisfied shall be revived and continue as if such payment or proceeds had not been received and the Collateral Agent’s and the Guaranteed Creditors’ Liens, security interests, rights, powers and remedies under this Agreement and each other Guaranteed Document shall continue in full force and effect. In such event, each Guaranteed Document shall be automatically reinstated and the Borrowers shall take such action as may be reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent and the Guaranteed Creditors to effect such reinstatement.

Section 9.07 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.

(a) This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. The exchange of copies of this Agreement and of signature pages by facsimile or PDF transmission shall constitute effective execution and delivery of this Agreement as to the parties hereto and may be used in lieu of the original Agreement and signature pages for all purposes.

(b) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER GUARANTEED DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO AND THERETO AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.

(c) This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Collateral Agent and when the Collateral Agent shall have received and duly delivered counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, the Lenders, the other Guaranteed Creditors and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 9.08 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement or any other Guaranteed Document held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof or thereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 9.09 Set-Off. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, subject to the terms of any applicable Intercreditor Agreement, each Guaranteed Creditor and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set-off and apply any obligations (of whatsoever kind) at any time owing by such Guaranteed Creditor or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Obligor against any of and all the obligations of such Obligor owed to such Guaranteed Creditor now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Guaranteed Document, irrespective of whether or not such Guaranteed Creditor shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Guaranteed Document and although such obligations may be unmatured; provided, however, that in no event shall the Collateral Agent or any Guaranteed Creditor be entitled to exercise any such right of set-off in the Investment Accounts in connection with and as against the Indebtedness. The rights of each Guaranteed Creditor under this Section 9.09 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) which such Guaranteed Creditor or its Affiliates may have.

Section 9.12 Acknowledgments. Each Obligor hereby acknowledges that:

(a) neither the Collateral Agent nor any Guaranteed Creditor has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to any Obligor arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Guaranteed Documents, and the relationship between the Obligors, on the one hand, and the Collateral Agent and Guaranteed Creditors, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor; and

(b) no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Guaranteed Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby among the Guaranteed Creditors or among the Obligors and the Guaranteed Creditors.

(c) Each of the parties hereto specifically agrees that it has a duty to read this Agreement and the other Guaranteed Documents and agrees that it is charged with notice and knowledge of the terms of this Agreement and the other Guaranteed Documents; that it has in fact read this Agreement and the other Guaranteed Documents and is fully informed and has full notice and knowledge of the terms, conditions and effects thereof; that it has been represented by independent legal counsel of its choice throughout the negotiations preceding its execution of this Agreement and the other Guaranteed Documents and has received the advice of its attorney in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Guaranteed Documents; and that it recognizes that certain of the terms of this Agreement and the Guaranteed Documents result in one party assuming the liability inherent in some aspects of the transaction and relieving the other party of its responsibility for such liability.

Section 9.14 Releases.

(a) Release Upon Payment in Full. The grant of a security interest hereunder and all of rights, powers and remedies in connection herewith shall remain in full force and effect until the Collateral Agent has (i) retransferred and delivered all Collateral in its possession to the Obligors, and (ii) executed a written release or termination statement and reassigned to the Obligors without recourse or warranty any remaining Collateral and all rights conveyed hereby. At such time as the Borrower Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash and the Commitments have been terminated, the Collateral Agent, at the written request and expense of the Borrowers, will promptly release, reassign and transfer the Collateral to the Obligors and declare this Agreement to be of no further force or effect, subject to the reinstatement provisions set forth herein.

(b) Partial Releases. If any of the Collateral shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by any Obligor in a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement and any Pari Passu Lien Documents then in effect to a Person that is not, and is not required to be, an Obligor or if such Collateral becomes an Excluded Asset, then the Collateral Agent, at the request and sole expense of such Obligor, shall promptly (but in any event within ten (10) Business Days of receipt by the Collateral Agent of a written notice from the Borrowers with respect to such disposition) execute and deliver to such Obligor all releases or other documents reasonably necessary or desirable for the release of the Liens created hereby on such Collateral. At the request and sole expense of the Borrowers, a Guarantor shall be released from its obligations hereunder in the event that all the Equity Interests of such Guarantor shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of in a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement and any Pari Passu Lien Documents then in effect to a Person that is not, and is not required to be, an Obligor or if such Collateral becomes an Excluded Asset; provided that the Borrowers shall have delivered to the Collateral Agent, at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date of the proposed release, a written request of a Responsible Officer of the Borrowers for release identifying the relevant Guarantor and the terms of the sale or other disposition in reasonable detail, including the price thereof and any expenses in connection therewith, together with a certification by the Borrowers stating that such transaction is in compliance with the Credit Agreement and the other Guaranteed Documents.

(c) Retention in Satisfaction. Except as may be expressly applicable pursuant to Section 9-620 of the UCC, no action taken or omission to act by the Collateral Agent or the Guaranteed Creditors hereunder, including, without limitation, any exercise of voting or consensual rights or any other action taken or inaction, shall be deemed to constitute a retention of the Collateral in satisfaction of the Obligations or otherwise to be in full satisfaction of the Obligations, and the Obligations shall remain in full force and effect, until the Collateral Agent and the Guaranteed Creditors shall have applied payments (including, without limitation, collections from Collateral) toward the Obligations in the full amount then outstanding.

Section 9.15 Acceptance. Each Obligor hereby expressly waives notice of acceptance of this Agreement, acceptance on the part of the Collateral Agent and the Guaranteed Creditors being conclusively presumed by their request for this Agreement and delivery of the same to the Collateral Agent.

Section 9.16 Incorporation by Reference. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that all of the rights, protections, immunities and powers, including, without limitation, the right to indemnification applicable to Wilmington Trust, National Association as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent under the Credit Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference and shall be applicable to Wilmington Trust, National Association as Collateral Agent under this Agreement as if fully set forth herein.

Section 9.17 Intercreditor Agreements. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Collateral Agent acknowledges that the Liens and security interest granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Collateral Agent hereunder, is subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreements, in each case to the extent in effect.
