A. On

filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code
with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the

On

supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Final
Order”)
authorizing Borrower to obtain post-petition debtor-in-possession financing
pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in that certain Secured
Super-Priority Debtor in Possession Credit Agreement, dated as of January 22,
2008 (as has been or may upon Lenders’ consent as provided therein be further
amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the
“Credit
Agreement”).
B. Pursuant
to the Credit Agreement, the Lenders have agreed, subject to the terms and
conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement, to make certain loans and other
financial accommodations to Borrower.
C. As
of the
date hereof, the Event of Default listed on Exhibit
A
hereto
has occurred on November 21, 2008 and is continuing as of the date hereof (the
“Specified
Default(s)”)
and
the Loan Parties agree that such Specified Default has occurred and is
continuing.
D. Upon
Borrower’s request, the undersigned Lenders have agreed, subject to the terms
and conditions set forth herein, not to waive the Specified Default or any
rights or remedies they have but to forbear from exercising certain of their
default-related rights and remedies against Borrower and the other Loan Parties
with respect to the Specified Default in accordance with the following.
NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the terms, covenants and
conditions contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto
agree as follows:
SECTION
1. Confirmation
by Borrower of Obligations and Specified Default.
(a)
Borrower and each other Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that as of November
21, 2008, the aggregate principal balance of the outstanding Obligations under
the Credit Agreement is at least $279,580,667.44, and that the respective
principal balances of the various Loans as of such date were not less than
the
following:
1
New
Money Loans
|

of
or against any of the Loan Parties.
(b)
Borrower and each other Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that the Specified
Default constitutes a material Event of Default that has occurred and is
continuing as of the date hereof. Prior to the effectiveness of this Agreement,
the existence of the Specified Default (i) relieved the Lenders from any
obligation to provide any financial accommodations under the Credit Agreement
or
other Loan Documents and (ii) permitted the Lenders to, among other things,
(A)
suspend or terminate any commitment to provide Loans or make other extensions
of
credit under any or all of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents,
(B) accelerate all or any portion of the New Money Loans, (C) charge the default
interest rate applicable pursuant to Section 2.07 of the Credit Agreement with
respect to the New Money Loans, (D) if necessary, commence any legal or other
action to collect any or all of the Obligations from Borrower, any other Loan
Party and/or any Collateral or any other property as to which any other Person
granted the Lenders a security interest therein as security for the Obligations
or any guaranty thereof (collectively, the “Other
Collateral”),
(E)
foreclose or otherwise realize on any or all of the Collateral and Other
Collateral, and/or appropriate, set-off and apply to the payment of any or
all
of the Obligations, any or all of the Collateral and Other Collateral, (F)
take
any other enforcement action or otherwise exercise any or all rights and
remedies provided for by any or all of the Credit Agreement, the other Loan
Documents or applicable law, and/or (G) exercise any other and further right
provided for in the Final Order.
SECTION
2. Forbearance;
Forbearance Default Rights and Remedies.
(a) Effective
as of the Forbearance Effective Date, the Lenders agree that until the
expiration or termination of the Forbearance Period (as hereinafter defined),
they will temporarily forbear from exercising their respective default-related

and
(ii) December 5, 2008; provided, however that if (x) the Borrower and the
Lenders negotiate and successfully conclude an amendment to the Credit Agreement
on or before December 5, 2008, and (y) the Borrower files an emergency motion
with the Bankruptcy Court for approval of said amendment on or before December
8, 2008 with such hearing to be held no later than December 16, 2008, then
the
Forbearance Period shall be automatically extended to the date of the hearing
in
the Bankruptcy Court in respect of such motion but in no event later than
December 16, 2008; provided further however, that if the Lenders have not
provided the Borrower with a draft amendment to the Credit Agreement by 5:00
p.m. (EST) on December 1, 2008, then the December 5, 2008 termination date
for
the Forbearance Period shall be automatically extended to December 10, 2008
and
the other dates in the foregoing provision shall be extended accordingly. As
used herein, the term “Forbearance
Default”
shall
mean (A) the occurrence of any Event of Default other than the Specified
Default, (B) the failure of Borrower or any other Loan Party to timely comply
with any term, condition, or covenant set forth in this Agreement or (C) the
failure of any representation or warranty made by Borrower or any other Loan
Party under or in connection with this Agreement to be true and complete as
of
the date when made or any other breach of any such representation or warranty.
Any Forbearance Default shall constitute an immediate Event of Default under
the
Credit Agreement and other Loan Documents.
2
(b) Upon
the
termination or expiration of the Forbearance Period, the agreement of the
Lenders hereunder to forbear from exercising their respective default-related
rights and remedies shall immediately terminate without the requirement of
any

reserved by the Lenders.
(c) Any
agreement by the Lenders to extend the Forbearance Period, if any, must be
set
forth in writing and signed by a duly authorized signatory of each Lender
(constituting Required Lenders with respect hereto). Each of Borrower and the
other Loan Parties acknowledges that no Lender has made any assurances
concerning any possibility of an extension of the Forbearance
Period.
(d) Each
of
Borrower and the other Loan Parties acknowledges and agrees that any financial
accommodation which the Lenders make on or after the Forbearance Effective
Date

other things, the covenants, agreements, representations and warranties of
Borrower and the other Loan Parties hereunder.
(e) From
the
date of the occurrence of the Specified Default, Borrower shall pay interest
on
the New Money Loans at the default rate (i.e.,
the
rate otherwise applicable to the New Money Loans pursuant to Section 2.06 of
the
Credit Agreement plus 2.00% per annum) pursuant to Section 2.07 of the Credit
Agreement as a result of the existence of the Specified Default.
