As security and collateral for the due and punctual payment and performance by the Obligors of their respective joint and several obligations described in Section 3 below, each of the Pledgors hereby assigns, transfers, and pledges to the Security Trustee, and grants to the Security Trustee for the benefit of the Beneficiaries, a lien on and security interest in and to such Pledgor’s right, title and interest in and to the following (collectively, the “Pledged Collateral”):

(a) such Pledgor’s partnership interest in the Partnership owned by such Pledgor at any time and from time to time (each, a “Partnership Interest” and collectively, the “Partnership Interests”) and any certificates, instruments or other documents representing each such Partnership Interest, all dividends, distributions, cash, securities, instruments and other property from time to time paid, payable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for all or any part of each such Partnership Interest and all proceeds thereof; and

(b) all partnership interests (general or limited) or securities convertible into or exchangeable for such interests issued by the Partnership, or any successor thereto, from time to time and acquired by such Pledgor in substitution for or in addition to any of the foregoing, all certificates and instruments representing such interests or securities, and all dividends, distributions, cash, securities, instruments and other property from time to time paid, payable or

otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of such interests or securities and all proceeds thereof;

provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Pledgor be required to pledge any Excluded Charged Assets to the Security Trustee under this Pledge Agreement to secure the Designated Secured Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt:

(i) all Pledged Collateral that does not constitute Excluded Charged Assets remains pledged pursuant to this Pledge Agreement to secure all Secured Obligations, including without limitation the Designated Secured Obligations; and

(ii) such Excluded Charged Assets remain pledged under this Section 2 to secure any Secured Obligations that are not Designated Secured Obligations pursuant to this Pledge Agreement.

In the event that Rule 3-16 is amended, modified or interpreted by the SEC to require (or is replaced with another rule or regulation, or any other law, rule or regulation is adopted, which would require) the filing with the SEC (or any other United States federal or state governmental agency) of separate financial statements of any such Subsidiary due to the fact that such Subsidiary’s Ownership Interests or other securities secure any Designated Secured Obligations, then such Ownership Interests or other securities (as applicable) of such Subsidiary shall automatically be deemed to be Excluded Charged Assets for such Designated Secured Obligations but (i) only to the extent necessary to not be subject to any such financial statement requirement, (ii) only for so long as such financial statement requirement would otherwise have been applicable to such Subsidiary, and (iii) only if no member of the Group files or is otherwise required to file separate financial statements of such Subsidiary with the SEC or such other governmental agency under a separate rule or regulation. If the circumstances described in this paragraph apply, this Pledge Agreement may be amended or modified, without the consent of any Senior Finance Party, to the extent necessary to release the pledge (but only to the extent securing such Designated Secured Obligations and without prejudice to the pledge securing the Secured Obligations referred to in clause (ii) of the preceding paragraph) in favor of the Security Trustee on the relevant Ownership Interests and/or other securities that are so deemed to constitute Excluded Charged Assets.

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 Pledge 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.

3. SECURED OBLIGATIONS

The security interest in the Pledged Collateral granted pursuant hereto shall secure the due and punctual payment and performance of the Secured Obligations provided that before any demand for any Secured Obligation is made on a Restricted Guarantor pursuant to this Pledge Agreement, demand for payment of the relevant Secured Obligation shall first have been made on the Borrower from which such unpaid Secured Obligation is due. It is acknowledged and agreed that (without prejudice to the extension of the Secured Obligations to any other Indebtedness from time to time included within the definition thereof) as at the date hereof, the Secured Obligations shall include: (a) all Liabilities under the Senior Facilities Agreement; and (b) all Liabilities under the Senior Secured Notes Documents.

4. DELIVERY OF COLLATERAL; ISSUANCE OF ADDITIONAL INTERESTS

(a) All certificates, instruments or documents, if any, representing or evidencing each and every of the Partnership Interests shall be delivered to the Security Trustee by the Pledgors on the date hereof, and shall be held by the Security Trustee pursuant hereto at all times hereafter until termination hereof pursuant to Section 24, and all certificates, instruments or documents representing or evidencing interests or securities in or issued by the Partnership and acquired by any Pledgor after the date hereof and constituting Pledged Collateral hereunder shall be delivered to the Security Trustee immediately upon, and held by the Security Trustee at all times after, acquisition thereof by such Pledgor. All such certificates, instruments or documents, if any, shall be in suitable form for transfer by delivery, or shall be accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank, all in form and substance satisfactory to the Security Trustee. To the extent that any certificates, instruments of transfer or other documents of title relating to any of the Pledged Collateral which are required to be delivered to the Security Trustee hereunder have already been delivered to Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch in its capacity as security trustee under and for the purposes of the security interests over such Pledged Collateral pursuant to the Original Pledge Agreement, the requirements of this Section 4(a) shall be deemed satisfied.

(b) Except as otherwise permitted in the Senior Finance Documents, each Pledgor agrees that it shall take all actions available to such Pledgor to cause the Partnership and, in the event of a merger or consolidation of the Partnership with any other entity, such other entity, not to issue any interests or other securities whether in addition to, by dividend or other distribution upon, or in substitution or exchange for, any of the Partnership Interests or otherwise, other than such interests or other securities issued to the Pledgors and promptly delivered to the Security Trustee pursuant to Section 4(a) hereof in which the Security Trustee, as agent and representative for the Beneficiaries, has a valid and perfected security interest free and clear of all liens and with respect to which no other party has any interest, except for the Existing

Pledged Collateral and the liens created in favor of the Security Trustee pursuant to this Pledge Agreement (collectively, the “Permitted Liens”)

(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default hereunder, the Security Trustee shall have the right, at any time in its discretion, to transfer to or to register in the name of the Security Trustee or any of its nominees any or all of the Pledged Collateral (with, in the discretion of the Security Trustee, such transfer or registration expressly empowering the Security Trustee to vote any voting interests included in the Pledged Collateral), subject only to each Pledgor’s revocable rights specified in Section 6(a).

(d) Each Pledgor shall from time to time cause appropriate financing statements (on appropriate forms) under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the Colorado, the District of Columbia or any other relevant states (a “State”), covering all Collateral hereunder (with the form of such financing statements to be satisfactory to the Security Trustee), to be filed in the relevant filing offices so that at all times the Security Trustee’s security interest in all Pledged Collateral which can be perfected by the filing of such financing statement (in each case to the maximum extent perfection by filing may be obtained under the laws of the relevant State), is so perfected.

5. CERTAIN COVENANTS; REPRESENTATIONS

(b) Each of the Pledgors represent and warrant that: (i) their choice of Colorado law to govern this Pledge Agreement is valid and binding subject to the Reservations; (ii) the Partnership Interests held by such Pledgor consist of the number and type of interests of the persons described in Schedule 5(a) hereto; (iii) each Partnership Interest referenced in sub-clause (ii) of this paragraph constitutes that percentage or position of the entire Partnership Interest of the Partnership as set forth in Schedule 5(a) hereto; (iv) it has complied with the respective procedure set forth in Clause 4(a) hereof with respect to each item of Pledged Collateral described in Schedule 5(a); and (v) such Pledgor owns no other Partnership Interests except as set forth in Schedule 5(b) hereto.

6. VOTING RIGHTS; DIVIDENDS; ETC.

(a) So long as no Event of Default hereunder shall have occurred and be continuing: (i) each Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Pledged Collateral belonging to such Pledgor pursuant to the partnership agreement creating and governing LSCP (the “LSCP Partnership Agreement”), for any purpose not prohibited by the terms of this Pledge Agreement or the Senior Finance Documents; and (ii) except as otherwise provided in Section 6(c) hereof and except for distributions prohibited by the Senior Finance Documents, each Pledgor shall be entitled to receive, retain and distribute, free and clear of the security interest granted hereunder, any dividends, distributions, cash and other property from time to time paid, payable or otherwise distributed in respect of the Pledged Collateral belonging to such Pledgor.

(b) Pledgor hereby irrevocably appoints the Security Trustee as Pledgor’s proxyholder with respect to the Partnership Interests of Pledgor and any other voting interests or other securities belonging to Pledgor and forming a part of the Pledged Collateral with full power and authority, in the discretion of the Security Trustee, to vote such Partnership Interests and other voting interests or securities and otherwise to act with respect to such Partnership Interests or other voting interests or securities on behalf of Pledgor; provided that this proxy shall only be operative upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and so long as such Event of Default continues. This proxy shall be irrevocable for so long as any of the Secured Obligations remain in existence. Pledgor shall execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to the Security Trustee all proxies and other instruments as the Security Trustee may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling the Security Trustee to exercise the voting and other rights which it is entitled to exercise pursuant to this Section 6(b).

(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default hereunder or as otherwise permitted or not restricted pursuant to the provisions of each of the Senior Finance Documents, all rights of the Pledgor to receive and retain dividends, distributions, cash and other property, which it would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant to Section 6(a)(ii), shall cease and all such rights shall thereupon be vested in the Security Trustee, who shall thereupon have the sole right to receive and hold as Pledged Collateral such dividends, distributions, cash and other property; provided, that until the Enforcement Date, without prejudice to the Senior Finance Documents, the Security Trustee will hold all dividends, distributions, cash and other property paid on and received by it in respect of any Partnership Interest which are transferred to it for the account of each Pledgor and will, subject to any right of set-off, pay such dividends, interest and other moneys to such Pledgor upon request. All cash and other property received by a Pledgor contrary to the provisions of this Section 6(c) shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Security Trustee, shall be segregated from other property or funds of such Pledgor and shall be forthwith delivered to the Security Trustee as Pledged Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary transfer documents or endorsements).

7. REASONABLE CARE; PLEDGOR REMAINS LIABLE

(a) The Security Trustee shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Pledged Collateral in its possession if the Pledged Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Security Trustee accords its own property, it being understood that neither the Security Trustee nor any Beneficiary shall have responsibility for taking any necessary steps (other than steps taken in accordance with the standard of care set forth above to maintain possession of the Pledged Collateral) to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any Pledged Collateral; provided that the Security Trustee agrees to notify the Pledgors if it has actual knowledge of the necessity of taking any such steps in respect of any Pledged Collateral and to cooperate with the Pledgors in connection therewith.

(b) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) the Pledgors shall remain liable under the LSCP Partnership Agreement to the extent set forth therein to perform the duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Pledge Agreement had not been executed, (ii) the exercise by the Security Trustee of any of its rights hereunder shall not release any Pledgor from any of the duties or obligations under the LSCP Partnership Agreement, and (iii) the Security Trustee and the other Beneficiaries shall not have any obligation or liability under the LSCP Partnership Agreement by reason of this Pledge Agreement, nor shall the Security Trustee or the other Beneficiaries be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any Pledgor thereunder, to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by any Pledgor or the sufficiency of any performance by any party under the LSCP Partnership Agreement or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder. Except to the extent required by general partnership law, the Security Trustee and the other Beneficiaries shall not by reason of this Pledge Agreement or the exercise of any remedies hereunder become responsible or liable in any manner or to any extent for the obligations and liabilities of LSCP or any of the liabilities of the Pledgors (or their permitted successors or assigns).

8. SECURITY TRUSTEE APPOINTED ATTORNEY-IN-FACT

(a) Each Pledgor hereby irrevocably appoints (which appointment is coupled with an interest) the Security Trustee (acting through its employees, attorneys, and/or agents) as such Pledgor’s attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution and with full authority in the place and stead of Pledgor and in its name or otherwise, from time to time in the Security Trustee’s discretion, to sign, execute, seal and deliver and otherwise perfect any further security document or notice reasonably required to secure the Secured Obligations or to perfect the security intended to be created hereunder over the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof or, on or after the Enforcement Date, to take any action and to execute any instrument which the Security Trustee may deem reasonably necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Pledge Agreement; provided, that the Security Trustee shall be under no obligation to take any action hereunder and, absent gross negligence and wilful misconduct, the Security Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility for any action taken or omission with respect thereto.

(b) Each Pledgor hereby consents, acknowledges and agrees, as of the date hereof, that the Security Trustee shall be appointed to succeed the Existing Security Trustee in relation to the Existing Pledged Collateral.

9. SECURITY TRUSTEE MAY PERFORM

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default hereunder (including an Event of Default resulting from a failure to perform any agreement contained herein), if any Pledgor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, the Security Trustee may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the expenses of the Security Trustee incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by such Pledgor under Section 12 hereof.

10. EVENTS OF DEFAULT

The occurrence of an Event of Default shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder.

11. REMEDIES

At any time on or after the Enforcement Date, in addition to and without limiting any and all other remedies available under principles of law or equity:

(a) The Security Trustee may execute, acknowledge, deliver, file and record on behalf of any or all the Pledgors and in their respective names financing statements, continuation statements, security agreements, mortgages, assignments, certificates of title, reports, notices, schedules of account, and all other documents, instruments or agreements that the Security Trustee may, in its sole and absolute discretion, deem advisable in order to obtain, perfect and maintain the Security Trustee’s security interests in the Pledged Collateral granted pursuant hereto and in order to fully consummate, implement and enforce all of the transactions contemplated and security interests granted under this Pledge Agreement.

(b) The Security Trustee may exercise in respect of the Pledged Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party after default under the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the State of Colorado (the “Colorado UCC”) at that time or other applicable law.

(c) The Security Trustee may, without notice except as specified below, sell the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any exchange, over the counter or at any of the Security Trustee’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as may be commercially reasonable or otherwise in such manner as necessary to comply with applicable federal and state securities laws. The Pledgors agree that the Security Trustee shall not be required to register or qualify any of the Pledged Collateral under applicable state or federal securities laws in connection with any such sale if the sale is effected in a manner that complies with all applicable federal and state securities laws (to the extent applicable). The Security Trustee shall be authorized at any such sale (if it deems it advisable to

do so) to restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers to persons who will represent and agree that they are “accredited investors” or “qualified institutional buyers” under applicable law and are purchasing the Pledged Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution thereof. Upon consummation of any such sale the Security Trustee shall have the right to assign, transfer and deliver the Pledged Collateral to the purchaser or purchasers at any such sale, and such purchasers shall hold the property sold absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of the Pledgors, and each Pledgor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by law) all rights of redemption, stay or appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have under applicable law now existing or hereafter enacted.

(d) The Security Trustee shall give to each Pledgor notice in writing of the time and place of any public sale or of the time on or after which any private sale or intended disposition is to be made. Such notice need not be given more than five (5) Business Days (or such longer period as shall be specified by applicable law) before the date fixed for any such disposition, which notice the Pledgors agree shall constitute commercially reasonable notification. At any such sale or other disposition, the Security Trustee, to the extent permitted by applicable law, may bid, which bid may be, in whole or in part, in the form of cancellation of the Secured Obligations in proportion to the share of the Secured Obligations of each Beneficiary, and purchase for the account of the Beneficiaries the whole or any portion of the Pledged Collateral, to the further extent permitted by applicable law, free of any right of redemption, which right is hereby waived and released to the extent permitted by applicable law. The Security Trustee shall not be obligated to make any sale of Pledged Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given, and the Security Trustee may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned.

(e) If a sale of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral is made on credit or for future delivery, the Pledged Collateral so sold may be retained by the Security Trustee until the sale price is paid by the purchaser or purchasers thereof, but the Security Trustee shall not incur any liability in case any such purchaser or purchasers shall fail to take delivery of and pay for the Pledged Collateral so sold and, in case of any such failure, such Pledged Collateral may be sold again upon like notice. The Pledgors agree that any sale of the Pledged Collateral conducted by the Security Trustee in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section shall be deemed to be a commercially reasonable sale under Article 9 of the Colorado UCC.

(f) As an alternative to exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, the Security Trustee may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to foreclose the security interests and to sell the Pledged Collateral, or any portion thereof, pursuant to a judgment or decree of a court or courts of competent jurisdiction.

(g) Subject to provisions of applicable law any cash held by the Security Trustee as Pledged Collateral and all cash proceeds received by the Security Trustee in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part

The Pledgors further expressly waive any right to enforce any remedy that the Beneficiaries now or hereafter may have against LSCP or any other person and waive the benefit of, or any right to participate in, any Collateral now or hereafter held by the Beneficiaries, until the Secured Obligations shall then have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full.

(e) The Pledgors expressly waive (i) all presentments, protests, notices of default or dishonor and all other notices or demands of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the Secured Obligations, including notice of any action against LSCP or any Guarantor or the assertion or enforcement of any right of the Beneficiaries hereunder or any other of the Security Documents; (ii) all notices of acceptance of this Pledge Agreement or of the existence, creation, renewal or incurring of new or additional Secured Obligations; and (iii) to the extent permitted by applicable law, the benefit of all valuation, appraisal, redemption and exemption laws. The Pledgors expressly agree that they shall be bound by each and every ruling, order and judgment obtained by any Beneficiary against LSCP, in respect of the Secured Obligations, whether or not the Pledgors are parties to, or have received notice of, the action or proceeding in which such ruling, order or judgment is issued and rendered.

(f) The Pledgors represent and warrant that they have established adequate means of obtaining from LSCP, on a continuing basis, financial and other information pertaining to the business, operations and condition (financial and otherwise) of such entity, and now are and hereafter will be completely familiar with such business, operations, condition and properties.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other agreement or instrument relating to the Secured Obligations, the Pledgors shall not be personally liable to the Security Trustee or the Beneficiaries for the satisfaction of the Secured Obligations, and the Security Trustee, on behalf of the Beneficiaries, shall look solely to the Pledged Collateral with respect to such satisfaction from Pledgors; provided that the foregoing shall not (i) constitute a waiver, release or discharge of any of the indebtedness evidenced by any Senior Finance Document, but the same shall continue until fully paid, discharged, observed or performed or (ii) in any way limit or restrict any right of the Security Trustee or the Beneficiaries to foreclose the liens and security interests of the Security Documents or otherwise realize upon any collateral assigned or pledged to the Security Trustee or the Beneficiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or (iii) constitute a waiver or limitation by the Security Trustee or the Beneficiaries of any claim against Pledgors for any claim in the nature of fraud or deceit or willful misconduct arising under or in connection with this Pledge Agreement.
