In the event that Rule 3-16 is amended, modified or interpreted by the SEC to permit (or is replaced with another rule or regulation, or any other law, rule or regulation is adopted, which would permit) such Subsidiary’s Ownership Interests and/or other securities to secure any Designated Secured Obligations in excess of the amount then pledged without the filing with the SEC (or any other United States federal or state governmental agency) of separate financial statements of such Subsidiary, then the Ownership Interests or other securities (as applicable) of such Subsidiary will automatically be deemed not to be Excluded Charged Assets for such Designated Secured Obligations, but limited to the extent necessary to not be subject to any such financial statement requirement. If the circumstances described in this paragraph apply, this Agreement may be amended or modified, without the consent of any Senior Finance Party, to the extent necessary to pledge in favor of the Security Trustee such additional Ownership Interests or other securities that were deemed to constitute Excluded Charged Assets.

(b) In the event that any part of the Collateral is sold or otherwise disposed of to a person other than an Obligor and (x) such disposal is permitted or not restricted under any of the Senior Finance Documents, or (y) is otherwise released with the consent of the Instructing Party in accordance with the terms of the Group Intercreditor Deed, and in the case of clauses (x) and (y), the proceeds of such sale or disposition (or from such release) are applied in accordance with the terms of the Senior Finance Documents to the extent required to be so applied, the Pledgee, at the request and expense of such Pledgor, will duly release from the security interest created hereby (and will execute and deliver such documentation, including termination or partial release statements and the like in connection therewith) and assign, transfer and deliver to such Pledgor (without recourse and without any representation or warranty) such of the Collateral as is then being (or has been) so sold or

released and as may be in the possession of the Pledgee (or, in the case of Collateral held by any sub-agent designated pursuant to Section 4 hereto, such sub-agent) and has not theretofore been released pursuant to this Agreement.

(c) At any time that any Pledgor desires that Collateral be released as provided in the foregoing Section 20(a) or (b), it shall deliver to the Pledgee (and the relevant sub-agent, if any, designated pursuant to Section 4 hereof) a certificate signed by an authorized officer of such Pledgor stating that the release of the respective Collateral is permitted pursuant to Section 20(a) or (b) hereof. If reasonably requested by the Pledgee (although the Pledgee shall have no obligation to make any such request), such Pledgor shall furnish appropriate legal opinions (from counsel, reasonably acceptable to the Pledgee) to the effect set forth in the immediately preceding sentence.

(d) The Pledgee shall have no liability whatsoever to any other Beneficiary as the result of any release of Collateral by it in accordance with (or which the Pledgee in good faith believes to be in accordance with) this Section 20.

26. PLEDGOR’S DUTIES

It is expressly agreed, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, that each Pledgor shall remain liable to perform all of the obligations, if any, assumed by it with respect to the Collateral and the Pledgee shall not have any obligations or liabilities with respect to any Collateral by reason of or arising out of this Agreement, except for the safekeeping of Collateral actually in Pledgee’s possession, nor shall the Pledgee be required or obligated in any manner to perform or fulfill any of the obligations of any Pledgor under or with respect to any Collateral.

27. COUNTERPARTS

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. A set of counterparts executed by all the parties hereto shall be lodged with each Pledgor and the Pledgee.

28. SEVERABILITY

Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

29. RECOURSE

This Agreement is made with full recourse to each Pledgor and pursuant to and upon all the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements on the part of such Pledgor contained herein and in the other Senior Finance Documents and otherwise in writing in connection herewith or therewith.

30. ADDITIONAL PLEDGORS

It is understood and agreed that any person that is required to become a party to this Agreement after the date hereof pursuant to the requirements of any Senior Finance Document, shall become a Pledgor hereunder by (x) executing a counterpart hereof and delivering same to the Pledgee or executing a joinder agreement and delivering same to the Relevant Agent, in each case as may be required by (and in form and substance satisfactory to) the Relevant Agent, (y) delivering supplements to Annexes A through F, hereto as are necessary to cause such annexes to be complete and accurate with respect to such additional Pledgor on such date and (z) taking all actions as specified in this Agreement as would have been taken by such Pledgor had it been an original party to this Agreement, in each case with all documents required above to be delivered to the Pledgee and with all documents and actions required above to be taken to the reasonable satisfaction of the Pledgee.

31. LIMITED OBLIGATIONS

It is the desire and intent of each Pledgor and the Beneficiaries that this Agreement shall be enforced against each Pledgor to the fullest extent permissible under the laws applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought.

32. RELEASE OF PLEDGORS

If at any time all of the Equity Interests of any Pledgor owned by any Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries are sold (to a person other than a Senior Finance Party) in a transaction permitted under or not restricted by any Senior Finance Document, then, such Pledgor shall be released as a Pledgor pursuant to this Agreement without any further action hereunder (it being understood that the sale of all of the Equity Interests in any person that owns, directly or indirectly, all of the Equity Interests in any Pledgor shall be deemed to be a sale of all of the Equity Interests in such Pledgor for purposes of this Section), and the Pledgee is authorized and directed to execute and deliver such instruments of release as are reasonably satisfactory to it. At any time that any Borrower desires that a Pledgor be released from this Agreement as provided in this Section 32, such Borrower shall deliver to the Pledgee a certificate signed by a principal executive officer of such Borrower stating that the release of such Pledgor is permitted pursuant to this Section 32. If reasonably

requested by Pledgee (although the Pledgee shall have no obligation to make any such request), such Borrower shall furnish legal opinions (from counsel acceptable to the Pledgee) to the effect set forth in the immediately preceding sentence. The Pledgee shall have no liability whatsoever to any other Beneficiary as a result of the release of any Pledgor by it in accordance with, or which it believes in good faith to be in accordance with, this Section 32.

33. AMENDMENT AND RESTATEMENT

This Agreement shall amend and restate in its entirety the Original Pledge Agreement, and all obligations of the Pledgor thereunder shall be deemed replaced and extended as obligations under this Agreement and be governed hereby without novation. In no event shall such amendment and restatement be construed as a termination of the obligations under the Original Pledge Agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each Pledgor and the Pledgee have caused this Agreement to be executed by their duly elected officers duly authorized as of the date first above written.

AGREEMENT (as amended, modified, restated and/or supplemented from time to time, this “Agreement”), dated as of [ , 20 ], among the undersigned pledgor (the “Pledgor”), [ ], not in its individual capacity but solely as Security Trustee (the “Pledgee”), and [ ], as the issuer of the Uncertificated Securities, Limited Liability Company Interests and/or Partnership Interests (each as defined below) (the “Issuer”).

W I T N E S S E T H :

WHEREAS, the Pledgor, certain of its affiliates and the Pledgee have entered into an Amended and Restated Pledge Agreement, dated as of [ , 20 ] (as amended, modified, restated and/or supplemented from time to time, the “Pledge Agreement”), under which, among other things, in order to secure the payment of the Obligations (as defined in the Pledge Agreement), the Pledgor has or will pledge to the Pledgee for the benefit of the Beneficiaries (as defined in the Pledge Agreement), and grant a security interest in favor of the Pledgee for the benefit of the Beneficiaries in, all of the right, title and interest of the Pledgor in and to any and all [“uncertificated securities” (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(18) of the Uniform Commercial Code, as adopted in the State of New York) (“Uncertificated Securities”)] [Partnership Interests (as defined in the Pledge Agreement)] [Limited Liability Company Interests (as defined in the Pledge Agreement)], from time to time issued by the Issuer, whether now existing or hereafter from time to time acquired by the Pledgor (with all of such [Uncertificated Securities] [Partnership Interests] [Limited Liability Company Interests] being herein collectively called the “Issuer Pledged Interests”); and

WHEREAS, the Pledgor desires the Issuer to enter into this Agreement in order to perfect the security interest of the Pledgee under the Pledge Agreement in the Issuer Pledged Interests, to vest in the Pledgee control of the Issuer Pledged Interests and to provide for the rights of the parties under this Agreement;

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual promises and agreements contained herein, and for other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1. The Pledgor hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Issuer, and the Issuer hereby agrees, to comply with any and all instructions and orders originated by the Pledgee (and its successors and assigns) regarding any and all of the Issuer Pledged Interests without the further consent by the registered owner (including the Pledgor), and, following its receipt of a notice from the Pledgee stating that the Pledgee is exercising exclusive control of the Issuer Pledged Interests, not to comply with any instructions or orders regarding any or all of the Issuer Pledged Interests originated by any person or entity other than the Pledgee (and its successors and assigns) or a court of competent jurisdiction.

2. The Issuer hereby certifies that (i) no notice of any security interest, lien or other encumbrance or claim affecting the Issuer Pledged Interests (other than the security interest of the Pledgee) has been received by it, and (ii) the security interest of the Pledgee in the Issuer Pledged Interests has been registered in the books and records of the Issuer.

3. The Issuer hereby represents and warrants that (i) the pledge by the Pledgor of, and the granting by the Pledgor of a security interest in, the Issuer Pledged Interests to the Pledgee, for the benefit of the Beneficiaries, does not violate the charter, by-laws, partnership agreement, membership agreement or any other agreement governing the Issuer or the Issuer Pledged Interests, and (ii) the Issuer Pledged Interests consisting of capital stock of a corporation are fully paid and nonassessable.

4. All notices, statements of accounts, reports, prospectuses, financial statements and other communications to be sent to the Pledgor by the Issuer in respect of the Issuer will also be sent to the Pledgee at the following address:

[ ]

Attention: [ ]

Telephone No.: [ ]

Telecopier No.: [ ]

5. Following its receipt of a notice from the Pledgee stating that the Pledgee is exercising exclusive control of the Issuer Pledged Interests and until the Pledgee shall have delivered written notice to the Issuer that all of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not then due) have been paid in full and this Agreement is terminated, the Issuer will send any and all redemptions, distributions, interest or other payments in respect of the Issuer Pledged Interests from the Issuer for the account of the Pledgee only by wire transfers to such account as the Pledgee shall instruct.

6. Except as expressly provided otherwise in Sections 4 and 5, all notices, instructions, orders and communications hereunder shall be sent or delivered by mail, telegraph, telex, telecopy, cable or overnight courier service and all such notices and communications shall, when mailed, telexed, telecopied, cabled or sent by overnight courier, be effective when deposited in the mails or delivered to overnight courier, prepaid and properly addressed for delivery on such or the next Business Day, or sent by telex or telecopier, except that notices and communications to the Pledgee or the Issuer shall not be effective until received.

7. This Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Pledgor and the Issuer and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Pledgee and its successors and assigns. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which shall constitute one instrument. In the event that any provision of this Agreement shall prove to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed to be severable from the other provisions of this Agreement which shall remain binding on all parties hereto. None of the terms and conditions of this Agreement may be changed, waived, modified or varied in any manner whatsoever except in writing signed by the Pledgee, the Issuer and the Pledgor.

8. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to its principles of conflict of laws. The Issuer’s “jurisdiction” within the meaning of the UCC and for all purposes of this Agreement shall be the State of Delaware.
