(g) Xxxxxxxxx 0X. Reporting Requirements. Paragraph 5A of the Agreement is hereby amended by
adding the following to the end thereof to read as follows:
“Together with any financial statements delivered under clauses (i) or (ii) hereof, the
Company shall deliver a schedule showing the interest accrued on the Notes during such
fiscal quarter, any Excess Leverage Fee accrued under paragraph 5R(1) hereof during such
fiscal quarter and showing the computations in reasonable detail.”
(h) Paragraph 5R. Excess Leverage Fee, RBC Fee and Interest Rate Increase. Paragraph 5R of
the Agreement is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
2
“5R(1). Excess Leverage Fee. If the Leverage Ratio as of the end of any fiscal
quarter, commencing with the fiscal quarter ending on September 30, 2008, is greater than
3.75:1.00, then for such fiscal quarter the Company agrees to pay to the holders of the
Notes, in addition to the interest accruing on the Notes and in addition to any increase in
such rate of interest that may result from the provisions of paragraph 5R(3), a fee (the
“Excess Leverage Fee”), payable in arrears on or before the 45th day after the
end of such fiscal quarter, equal to the product of (i) 0.75%, multiplied by (ii) the daily
average outstanding principal balance of the Notes during such fiscal quarter.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Excess Leverage Fee shall be payable with respect to any
period of any fiscal quarter with respect to which a RBC Fee is payable under paragraph
5R(2). The receipt by the holders of the Notes of any Excess Leverage Fee shall not
constitute a waiver of any Default or Event of Default.
5R(2). RBC Fee. If a RBC Event occurs or has occurred and is continuing, then, in
addition to the interest accruing on the Notes, the Company agrees to pay to each Holder and
in addition to any increase in such rate of interest that may result from the provisions of
paragraph 5R(3), a fee (the “RBC Fee”) on the daily average outstanding principal amount of
such Note during the continuance of such RBC Event at a rate per annum equal to 0.75%. The
RBC Fee with respect to each Note shall be calculated on the same basis as interest on such
Note is calculated and shall be paid in arrears on each day upon which interest for any
period is due on such Note if a RBC Event continued for any part of such period; provided,
however, that any portion of the RBC Fee relating to any period prior to the time the
Company first received notice of the occurrence of a RBC Event that would otherwise have
been payable on a prior interest payment date or dates shall be payable within five (5)
Business Days after the Company receives notice of the occurrence of such RBC Event.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Excess Leverage Fee paid with respect to any period of
any fiscal quarter with respect to which a RBC Fee is payable shall be deducted from the
amount of such RBC Fee payable with respect thereto. The receipt by the Holders of any RBC
Fee shall not constitute a waiver of any Default or Event of Default. The holders shall use
their reasonable efforts to provide notice to the Company once they have knowledge that a
RBC Event is no longer continuing.
5R(3). Interest Rate Increase. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph 1A, 1B,
1C, 1D, 1E or 1F of this Agreement or the terms contained in any Note, if at any time during
an Acquisition Adjustment Period the Leverage Ratio is greater than 5.25 to 1.00, then, in
addition to any Excess Leverage Fee that may be payable pursuant to paragraph 5R(1) or any
RBC Fee that may be payable pursuant to paragraph 5R(2), the rate of interest on each Note
shall be increased by adding 0.25% to the rate of interest set forth in such Note. The
payment of interest at such increased rate shall not constitute a waiver of any Default or
Event of Default and the increased rate of interest on each Note resulting from any such
increase shall be considered to be the coupon rate for such Note for the purposes of
determining the Default Rate.”
(i) Paragraph 6A(2). Interest Charge Coverage Ratio. Paragraph 6A(2) of the Agreement is
hereby amended by deleting the number “3.00” where it appears therein and inserting therefor the
number “2.50”.
3
(j) Paragraph 6A(3). Leverage Ratio. Paragraph 6A(3) of the Agreement is hereby amended and
restated to read as follows:
“(a) If no Unsecured Note Indebtedness is outstanding on the applicable date of
determination, the Company shall not, as of the end of any fiscal quarter, permit the
Leverage Ratio for the Company and its Subsidiaries on a Consolidated basis to be greater
than (i) 5.00 to 1.00 for any fiscal quarter ending on or after December 31, 2008 and on or
before June 30, 2009, (ii) 4.75 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2009,
and (iii) 4.50 to 1.00 for any fiscal quarter ending thereafter; provided, however, that,
for any fiscal quarter ending after December 31, 2010, during an Acquisition Adjustment
Period, the maximum permitted Leverage Ratio shall be increased by 0.50 to 1.00 from the
otherwise applicable ratio set forth above.
(b) If any Unsecured Note Indebtedness is incurred or outstanding on the applicable
date of determination, the Company shall not, as of the end of any fiscal quarter, permit
the Leverage Ratio (calculated in accordance with paragraph 6C(2)(xi)) for the Company and
its Subsidiaries on a Consolidated basis to be greater than 5.25 to 1.00 on the date any
Unsecured Note Indebtedness is incurred and on the last day of any fiscal quarter ending
thereafter; provided, however, that, for any fiscal quarter ending after December 31, 2010,
during an Acquisition Adjustment Period, the maximum permitted Leverage Ratio shall be
increased by 0.50 to 1.00 from the otherwise applicable ratio set forth above.
(c) If any Unsecured Note Indebtedness is incurred or outstanding on the applicable
date of determination, the Company shall not, as of the end of any fiscal quarter, permit
the Senior Leverage Ratio (calculated in accordance with paragraph 6C(2)(xi)) for the
Company and its Subsidiaries on a Consolidated basis to be greater than 4.25 to 1.0 on the
date any Unsecured Note Indebtedness is incurred and on the last day of any fiscal quarter
ending thereafter; provided, however, that, for any fiscal quarter ending after December 31,
2010, during an Acquisition Adjustment Period, the maximum permitted Senior Leverage Ratio
shall be increased by 0.50 to 1.00 from the otherwise applicable ratio set forth above.”
(k) Paragraph 6C(5)(vii). Sales, Etc. of Property. The following is added to the end of
clause (vii) of paragraph 6C(5) of the Agreement:
“Notwithstanding the foregoing, no sale, lease, transfer or other disposition of Property

shall be permitted under this clause (vii) other than sales, leases, transfers and
dispositions of Property for consideration not exceeding $20,000,000 in the aggregate, in
each case only if consummated in accordance with the waivers given under the Waiver and
Letter Amendment No. 3 to this Agreement.”
(l) Paragraph 7A(ii). Acceleration. Paragraph 7A(ii) of the Agreement is hereby amended and
restated to read as follows:
4
“(ii) the Company defaults in the payment of any interest on, any Excess Leverage Fee,
or any RBC Fee with respect to, any Note for more than three Business Days after the date
due; or”
(m) Paragraph 10B. Other Terms. Paragraph 10B of the Agreement is hereby amended by amending
the definition of “Acquisition Adjustment Period” to delete the date “June 29, 2006” where it
appears therein and inserting therefor the date “December 31, 2010”.
(n) Xxxxxxxxx 00X. Other Terms. The definition of “EBITDA” in Paragraph 10B of the Agreement
is hereby amended by (i) replacing “For purposes of calculating the Leverage Ratio only” with “For
purposes of calculating (x) the Leverage Ratio and (y) for any period ending prior to the Amendment
No. 3 Effective Date, the Interest Charge Coverage Ratio” and (ii) adding the following paragraph
to the end of such definition:
“Notwithstanding the foregoing, such pro forma adjustments to EBITDA (x) for the periods of
calculation ending December 31, 2008 and March 31, 2009 shall be limited to 20% of the total
actual EBITDA for such period, (y) for the period of calculation ending June 30, 2009 shall
be limited to 15% of the total actual EBITDA for such period and (z) for periods of
calculation ending thereafter, shall be limited to 10% of the total actual EBITDA for such
period, in each case, which total actual EBITDA shall be determined without including any
such pro forma adjustments to EBITDA.”
(o) Paragraph 10B. Other Terms. The definition of “Interest Expense” in Paragraph 10B of the
Agreement is hereby amended by inserting “prior to the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date” immediately
after “on a pro forma basis at any time”.
(p) Paragraph 10B. Other Terms. Paragraph 10B of the Agreement is hereby further amended by
adding the following new terms in their appropriate alphabetical order as follows:

in respect of such Notes from that which was required prior to the
Amendment No. 3 Effective Date; and
(ii) The amount of capital required to be held in reserve by a
holder of the Notes in respect of such Notes as required by the

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any changes in the capital reserve
requirements imposed by the SVO that are applicable to all companies
rated by the SVO generally shall not be considered a RBC Event.

the release of the Seminole Plant Interest from the Lien of the Collateral Agent under the Security

result of a violation of paragraph 6C(5) of the Agreement, (ii) agree that the consideration for
the Seminole Plant Sale shall not be included in the calculation of the limitation on dispositions
in paragraph 6C(5)(vii) of the Agreement and (iii) so long as no Default or Event of Default shall

(b) The foregoing waivers are limited to the extent described herein and shall not be
construed to be a permanent waiver of paragraph 6C(5) or paragraph 4F(i) of the Agreement, a waiver
of paragraph 6C(5) or paragraph 4F(i) of the Agreement with respect to any other sale, lease,
transfer or other disposition of any Property by the Company or any Subsidiary, whether or not

3. Representations and Warranties. In order to induce the Holders to enter into this
Amendment, the Company hereby represents and warrants as follows:
6
(a) The execution, delivery and performance by the Company and the Guarantors of this
Amendment, the Agreement, as amended hereby, and each of the documents described in paragraph 4
hereof to which each is a party, have in each case been duly authorized by all necessary limited
liability company, limited partnership or other organizational action and do not and will not (i)
contravene the terms of the Company Partnership Agreement or the partnership or limited liability
company agreement or certificate of formation (or other organizational documents) of the General
Partner, the Company or any of their Subsidiaries, (ii) conflict with or result in any breach or

true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date hereof, and will be true and
correct in all material respects immediately upon, and as of the date of, the effectiveness of this

of such earlier date.
(c) On and as of the date hereof, and after giving effect to this Amendment, no Default or
Event of Default exists under the Agreement.
