parties to a Credit Agreement dated September 30, 2005 (as modified and supplemented and in effect
from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), providing, subject to the terms and conditions
thereof, for extensions of credit (by means of loans and letters of credit) to be made by the

Administrative Agent and any successors or assigns of any of the foregoing, the “Secured
Parties”) to the Company in an aggregate principal or face amount not exceeding $800,000,000
(which, in the circumstances contemplated by Section 2.01(c) thereof, may be increased to

the “Swap Agreements”).
In connection with the Credit Agreement, the Borrowers, the Existing Subsidiary Guarantors and
the Administrative Agent are parties to the Pledge Agreement dated September 30, 2005 (the
“Pledge Agreement”) pursuant to which the Securing Parties have, inter
alia, granted a security interest in the Collateral (as defined in the Pledge Agreement) as
collateral security for the Secured Obligations (as so defined). Terms defined in the Pledge
Agreement are used herein as defined therein.
To induce the Secured Parties to enter into the Credit Agreement, and to extend credit
thereunder and to extend credit to the Borrower under Swap Agreements, and for other good and
valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Additional
Subsidiary Guarantor has agreed to become a party to the Credit Agreement and the Pledge

the Collateral (as defined in the Pledge Agreement).

foregoing, the Additional Subsidiary Guarantor hereby:
(i) jointly and severally with the other Subsidiary Guarantors party to the Credit
