Section 2.05. Continuing Obligation. The obligations provided in this Article II are continuing obligations and shall apply to all Obligations whenever arising.

Section 3.01. The Guarantee. The Grantors hereby, jointly and severally guarantee, as a

primary obligor and not as a surety to the Sellers and its successors and assigns, the prompt payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, demand, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Obligations (including any interest, fees, costs or charges that would accrue but for

the provisions of the Title 11 of the United States Code or other applicable bankruptcy or insolvency legislation after any bankruptcy or insolvency petition under Title 11 of the United States Code or other applicable bankruptcy or insolvency legislation) owing by the Grantors to the Sellers hereunder, including pursuant to Section 8.05 hereof. The Grantors hereby jointly and severally agree that if the Buyers or other Grantor(s) shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Obligations, the Grantors will promptly pay the same in cash, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.

(a)at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Grantors, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived;

(b)any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be done or omitted;

(c)the maturity of any of the Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Obligations shall be amended in any respect, or any right under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be amended or waived in any respect or any other guarantee of any of the Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with; or

(d)any Lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of the Sellers as security for any of the Obligations shall fail to be perfected.

The Grantors hereby expressly waive diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that the Sellers exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against any Grantor under this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or against any other person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Obligations. The Grantors waive any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension, waiver, termination or accrual of any of the Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Sellers upon this Guarantee or acceptance

of this Guarantee, and the Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon this Guarantee, and all dealings between the Buyers and the Sellers shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guarantee. This Guarantee shall be construed as a continuing, absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to any right of offset with respect to the Obligations at any time or from time to time held by the Sellers, and the obligations and liabilities of the Grantors hereunder shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by the Sellers or any other person at any time of any right or remedy against the Buyers or any other any Grantor or against any other person which may be or become liable in respect of all or any part of the Obligations or against any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto. This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon the Grantors and the successors and assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of the Sellers and its successors and assigns, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of this Agreement there may be no Obligations outstanding.

Section 3.03. Reinstatement. The obligations of the Grantors under this Article III shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of the Buyers or other Grantor in respect of the applicable Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the applicable Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise.

Section 3.04. Subrogation; Subordination. Each Grantor hereby agrees that until the Discharge Date, it shall waive any claim and shall not exercise any right or remedy, direct or indirect, arising by reason of any performance by it of its guarantee in Section 3.01, whether by subrogation or otherwise, against any Buyers or any other Grantor of any of the applicable Obligations or any security for any of the applicable Obligations.

Section 3.05. Remedies. The Grantors jointly and severally agree that, as between the Grantors and the Sellers, the Obligations may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Article VII (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in said Article VII) for purposes of Section 3.01, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against the Buyers and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by the Buyers) shall forthwith become due and payable by the applicable Grantors for purposes of Section 3.01.

Section 3.06. Instrument for the Payment of Money. Each Grantor hereby acknowledges that the guarantee in this Article 3 constitutes an instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that the Sellers, at its sole option, in the event of a dispute by such Grantor in the payment of any moneys due hereunder, shall have the right to bring a motion-action under New York CPLR Section 3213.

Section 3.07. Continuing Guarantee. The guarantee in this Article 3 is a continuing guarantee of payment, and shall apply to all applicable Obligations whenever arising.

Section 3.08. General Limitation on Guarantee Obligations. In any action or proceeding involving any state corporate limited partnership or limited liability company law, or any applicable state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Grantor under Section 10.01 would otherwise be held or determined to be void, voidable, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 10.01, then, notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such Grantor or any other person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.

Section 4.01. Representations and Warranties. Each Grantor hereby represents and warrants to the Sellers as of the Closing Date that:

(b)Schedules 1 and 2 set forth, with respect to each Grantor: (i) the full and correct legal name of such Grantor, all trade names or other names under which such Grantor currently conducts business, and the type of organization of such Grantor, (ii) the jurisdiction of organization of such Grantor, (iii) the place of business of such Grantor (or, if such Grantor has more than one place of business, the location of the chief executive office of such Grantor), and

(c)No Grantor has within the period of five years prior to the date hereof, changed its “location” (as defined in Section 9-307 of the UCC). No Grantor has changed its name, jurisdiction of organization, chief executive office or sole place of business or its corporate form (e.g., by merger or consolidation) or has done business under any other name, in each case, within the past five years. No Grantor has within the last five years become bound (whether as a result of merger or otherwise) as debtor under a security agreement entered into by another Person, which has not heretofore been terminated.

(d)Each Grantor has been duly organized and is validly existing as an entity of the type as set forth in Schedule 1 solely under the laws of the jurisdiction as set forth therein. No Grantor has filed any certificates of dissolution or liquidation, any certificates of domestication, transfer or continuance in any other jurisdiction.

(e)All of the Pledged Ownership Interests have been or will be duly authorized and validly issued.

(f)None of the Pledged Ownership Interests has been or will be issued or transferred in violation of the securities registration, securities disclosure or similar laws of any jurisdiction to which such issuance or transfer may be subject.

All of the Pledged Ownership Interests is or represents interests that by their terms provide that they are securities governed by Article 8 of the UCC of an applicable jurisdiction.

(g)No Grantor owns any Real Property or Collateral of a type described in Section 2.01(n) or any other interest in property that is of a type where a security interest or Lien must be or may be registered, recorded or filed under, or notice thereof given under, any federal statute or regulation.

(h)(1) Upon the filing of financing statements naming each Grantor as “debtor” and the Sellers as “secured party” and describing the Collateral in the filing offices and in the jurisdictions set forth in Schedule 2, the security interest of the Sellers in all Collateral that can be perfected by the filing of a financing statement under the UCC as in effect in the jurisdiction in which such filing is made will constitute a valid, perfected, first priority Lien subject, in the case of priority only, to any Permitted Liens with respect to Collateral.

(a)Each agreement purporting to give the Sellers “control” (within the meaning of Sections 9-104, 9-105, 9-106, and 9-107 of the UCC) over any Collateral is effective to establish the Sellers’ “control” of the Collateral subject thereto.

(b)To the extent perfection or priority of the security interest therein is not subject to Article 9 of the UCC, upon recordation of the security interests granted hereunder in patents, trademarks, copyrights and exclusive copyright licenses in the applicable intellectual property registries, including the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office, the security interests granted to the Sellers hereunder shall constitute valid, perfected, first priority Liens (subject, in the case of priority only, to Permitted Liens).

(c)The Organizational Documents are in full force and effect, and no Grantor is in default thereunder.

(i)     Schedule 3 (as such Schedule may be amended or supplemented from time to time in accordance with the terms hereof) correctly sets forth the percentage of the issued and outstanding units of each class of the Equity Interests of the issuer thereof represented by the Pledged Ownership Interests and includes all Equity Interests in the Issuers and all debt securities and promissory notes required to be pledged hereunder in order to satisfy the requirements of the Transaction Documents.

(j)    Other than the financing statements filed with respect to Liens permitted under Section 6.01, and the financing statements in favor of the Sellers, no effective UCC financing statement, fixture filing or other instrument similar in effect under any applicable law covering all or any part of the Collateral is on file in any filing or recording office. Other than the Sellers, no Person is in “control” (within the meaning of Sections 9-104, 9-105, 9-106, and 9-107 of the UCC) of any Collateral.

(k)    Except as set forth in Schedule 4 (as such Schedule may be amended or supplemented from time to time in accordance with the terms hereof), no Grantor has any Commercial Tort Claim.

Each of Holdings and the Buyers covenants and agrees with the Sellers that, until the Discharge Date, each of Holdings and the Buyers shall, and where expressly applicable shall cause the other Grantors and their Subsidiaries, to, abide by the following affirmative covenants.

(a)promptly, and in any event within five days, after a Responsible Officer of Holdings or any Buyer becomes aware of the existence of any Default or Event of Default, a written notice specifying the nature and period of existence thereof and what action Holdings or the Buyers are taking or propose to take with respect thereto;

(b)immediately prior to the effectiveness of, but in any event, no later than two Business Days following the effectiveness thereof, copies of any amendment, supplement, waiver, or other modification, replacement or renewal with respect to any Bond Documents or HFOTCO Credit Agreement Documents;

(c)upon the request of the Sellers, copies of all financial statements, reports and notices that OpCo Intermediate Parent, HFOTCO or any Subsidiary of HFOTCO sends to the holders of any class of its debt securities or to the administrative agent and lenders under the Bond Documents or Sections 5.03 or 5.04 (other than such items already delivered pursuant to Section 5.02 hereto) of the HFOTCO Credit Agreement (or any similar or corresponding provisions set forth in any amendment thereto entered into in compliance with Section 6.09 or any agreement governing Refinancing Indebtedness entered into in compliance with Section 6.10); and

(d)with reasonable promptness, such other data and information relating to the business, operations, affairs, financial condition, assets or properties of any of the Group Members or relating to the Grantors’ ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement that is within the Grantors’ possession as from time to time may be reasonably requested by the Sellers.

Section 5.02. Financial Statements and Other Information. Each of Holdings and the Buyers shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Sellers all financial statements, reports and other information required to be delivered by any Group Member pursuant to Section 5.04 of the HFOTCO Credit Agreement (other than clauses (e) and (g) thereto) (or any similar or corresponding provisions set forth in any amendment thereto entered into in compliance with Section 6.09 or any agreement governing Refinancing Indebtedness entered into in compliance with Section 6.10) not later than two Business Days after such documents are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.04 of the HFOTCO Credit Agreement; provided, however, that the failure to deliver an audit opinion as required by Section 5.04 of the HFOTCO Credit Agreement shall not be considered a breach of this Section 5.02 for so long as Holdings and the Buyers are continuing to use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver or cause to be delivered such audit opinion as promptly

as practicable following the date required by Section 5.04(a) of the HFOTCO Credit Agreement and the reason for such delay is not related to the potential inclusion of a “going concern” or like qualification or exception.

Section 5.03. Maintenance of Existence. Except as otherwise expressly permitted under this Agreement, each Grantor shall (a) at all times preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate or limited liability company existence, as applicable and (b) preserve and keep in full force and effect all rights and franchises material to its business.

Section 5.04. Maintenance of Records; Access to Properties and Inspections. Each of Holdings and the Buyers shall, and shall cause the other Group Members to, maintain all financial records to be able to prepare financial statements in accordance with GAAP and permit the Sellers, Representatives of Sellers, or any other Persons designated by the Sellers (provided such other Persons enter into a customary confidentiality agreement for the benefit of the Group Members) to visit and inspect the financial records and the other properties of the Group Members, including the Terminal Storage Facility, in any case, at reasonable times, upon reasonable prior notice to the Holdings and the Buyers, and as often as reasonably requested without limitation, but only while an Event of Default is continuing, and to make extracts from and copies of such financial records, and permit any Persons designated by the Sellers or the Sellers upon reasonable prior notice to Holdings and the Buyers to discuss the affairs, finances and condition of the Grantors and their Subsidiaries with the officers thereof and independent accountants therefor (subject to reasonable requirements of safety and confidentiality, including requirements imposed by law or by contract). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Person shall be required to permit the inspection of any information (a) that constitutes trade secrets or proprietary information with respect to any Person, (b) in respect of which disclosure to the Sellers or any of their respective representatives would violate (i) any confidentiality agreement of such Person or (ii) applicable Legal Requirements or (c) that is subject to attorney client or similar privilege or constitutes attorney work product; provided that each Grantor and their Subsidiaries shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the agreement of any third-party necessary in order to disclose information that such Person would otherwise not be required to permit the inspection of pursuant to clause (b)(i) or (c) above; provided, further that if the Sellers requests the inspection of any information described in the foregoing clauses (a) through (c) in accordance with this Section 5.04, and any Grantor or its Subsidiary does not provide such information to the Sellers, then Holdings and the Buyers shall so notify the Sellers.

(a)Subject to the accuracy of Section 4.4(c) of the Purchase Agreement, each of Holdings and the Buyers shall comply, and shall cause each of the other Grantors to comply with all Legal Requirements, including Legal Requirements relating to equal employment opportunity, employee benefit plans and employee safety, except such non-compliance as would not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b)Subject to the accuracy of Section 4.4(c) of the Purchase Agreement, each of Holdings and the Buyers shall, and shall cause each of the other Grantors to, obtain, maintain in full force and effect and comply with all Permits necessary to the ownership of their respective properties or to the conduct of

their respective businesses, except to the extent that a failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(a)    Each of the Holdings and the Buyers shall furnish to the Sellers prompt written notice no later than 30 days prior to the occurrence of any change in (i) the legal name of any Grantor, as set forth in its Organizational Documents or (ii) the jurisdiction of organization or the form of organization of any Grantor, (iii) the location of the chief executive office of any Grantor or (iv) with respect to any Grantor organized under the laws of a jurisdiction that requires such information to be set forth on the face of a UCC financing statement, the organizational number, if any, or the Federal Tax Payer of such Grantor. Each of Holdings and the Buyers agree not to effect or permit any change referred to in the preceding sentence unless all filings have been made under the UCC or otherwise that are required in order for the Sellers to continue at all times following such change to have a valid, legal and perfected (to the extent perfection is required by this Agreement) security interest in all the Collateral.

(b)    In the event that any Grantor hereafter acquires any Collateral of a type described in Section 2.01(n) or any other interest in property that is of a type where a security interest or Lien must be or may be registered, recorded or filed under, or notice thereof given under, any federal statute or regulation, it shall promptly notify the Sellers thereof in writing and take such actions and execute such documents and make such filings all at such Grantor’s expense as the Sellers may reasonably request in order to ensure that they have a valid, perfected (to the extent perfection is required by this Agreement), first priority security interest in such Collateral, subject in the case of priority only, to any Permitted Liens.

(c)    Except as provided in the next sentence, in the event any Grantor receives any dividends, interest or distributions on any Pledged Ownership Interest or other Investment Property, upon the merger, consolidation, liquidation or dissolution of any issuer of any Pledged Ownership Interest or Investment Property, then (i) such dividends, interest or distributions and securities or other property shall be included in the definition of Collateral without further action and (ii) such Grantor shall immediately take all steps, if any, reasonably necessary or advisable to ensure the validity, perfection, priority and, if applicable, “control” (within the meaning of Sections 9-104, 9-105, 9-106, and 9-107 of the UCC) of the Sellers over such Investment Property (including delivery thereof to the Sellers if applicable) and pending any such action such Grantor shall be deemed to hold such dividends, interest, distributions, securities or other property in trust for the benefit of the Sellers and shall segregate such dividends, distributions, securities or other property from all other property of such Grantor; provided, however that the foregoing shall not restrict the payment by any Grantor of any Restricted Payment permitted by this Agreement.

(d)    If any Pledged Ownership Interests are not securities (for the purposes of the UCC) on the date hereof, no Grantor shall vote to enable or take any other action to cause any Issuer to elect or otherwise take any action to cause such Pledged Ownership Interests to be treated as securities for purposes of the UCC; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Issuer takes any such action in violation of the foregoing in this clause (d), such Grantor shall promptly notify the Sellers in writing of any such election or action and, in such event, shall take all steps necessary or advisable to establish the Sellers’

“control” (within the meaning of Section 8-106 of the UCC) thereof. If any Pledged Ownership Interests are securities (for the purposes of the UCC) on the date hereof, no Grantor shall vote to enable or take any other action to cause any Issuer to elect or otherwise take any action to cause such Pledged Ownership Interests to not be treated as securities for purposes of the UCC; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Issuer takes any such action in violation of the foregoing in this clause (d), such Grantor shall promptly notify the Sellers in writing of any such election or action and, in such event, shall take all steps necessary or advisable to establish the Sellers’ “control” (within the meaning of Section 8-106 of the UCC) thereof.

(a)Each Grantor shall promptly from time to time, at the expense and cost of such Grantor, give, execute, deliver, file, record, authorize or obtain, and hereby authorizes the Sellers to file, such financing statements and continuation statements and other notices, instruments, documents, agreements or consents in such offices as are or shall be reasonably necessary or as the Sellers may reasonably determine to be appropriate to create, perfect (to the extent perfection is required by this Agreement) and establish the priority of the liens granted by this Agreement in any and all of the Collateral, to preserve the validity, perfection (to the extent perfection is required by this Agreement) or priority of the liens granted by this Agreement in any and all of the Collateral or to enable the Sellers to exercise their remedies, rights, powers and privileges under this Agreement.

(b)with respect to any part of the Ownership Collateral that constitutes an Uncertificated Security pledged hereunder, cause any issuer thereof to register the Sellers as the registered owner of such Uncertificated Security or to enter into agreements to establish the Sellers’ “control” (within the meaning of Section 8-106 of the UCC) over such Uncertificated Securities;

(c)deliver to the Sellers any and all Instruments pledged hereunder and evidencing a right to the payment of a monetary obligation, endorsed or accompanied by such instruments of assignment and transfer in such form and substance as the Sellers may reasonably request; and

(d)take all such other actions, and authenticate or sign and file or record such other records or instruments, as are necessary or as the Sellers may reasonably request to perfect (to the extent perfection is required by this Agreement) and establish the priority of the Liens granted by this Agreement in any and all of the Collateral, to preserve the validity, perfection (to the extent perfection is required by this Agreement) or priority of the Liens granted by this Agreement in any and all of the Collateral or to enable the Sellers to exercise its remedies, rights, powers and privileges

under this Agreement, including, during the continuance of an Event of Default, by causing any or all of the Collateral to be transferred of record into the name of the Sellers as such (and the Sellers agree that if any Collateral is transferred into its name, the Sellers will thereafter, upon the request of any Grantor and at such Grantor’s expense, promptly give to such Grantor copies of any notices and communications received by it with respect to the Collateral pledged by such Grantor hereunder) and by exercising the right at any time to exchange certificates or instruments representing or evidencing any of the Equity Interests for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations.

(c)The Sellers are hereby authorized to file (at the expense and cost of the Grantors) financing or continuation statements, intellectual property security agreements and amendments to any of the foregoing, in any jurisdictions and with any filing offices as the Sellers may reasonably determine are necessary or advisable to perfect or otherwise protect the security interest granted to the Sellers herein. Such financing statements may describe the Collateral in the same manner as described herein or may contain an indication or description of collateral that describes such property in any other manner as the Sellers may reasonably determine is necessary or advisable, including describing such property as “all assets” or “all personal property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired” or words of similar effect. Each Grantor shall furnish to the Sellers from time to time statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Collateral and such other reports in connection with the Collateral as the Sellers may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Sellers shall not be responsible for filing any UCC financing statements (or amendments or continuations thereof) or recording any documents or instruments in any public office at any time.

(d)With respect to any Commodity Accounts and Commodity Contracts included in the Collateral, each Grantor shall ensure that the Sellers have control thereof in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Sellers.

(e)With respect any Electronic Chattel Paper or “transferable record”(as that term is defined in Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or in Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction) included in the Collateral that evidences a monetary obligation in excess of $1,000,000 individually or in the aggregate, each Grantor shall ensure that the Sellers have “control” (within the meaning of Section 9-105 of the UCC) thereof.

(f)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Agreement shall not require the perfection of (a) security interests in Deposit Accounts or Securities Accounts by “control” (within the meaning of Sections 9-104 and 9-106 of the UCC) or (b) pledges of or security interests in particular assets of the Grantors, if, and for so long as Sellers, in consultation with Holdings and the Buyers, determine that the cost of perfecting such pledges or security interests in such assets (taking into account any adverse tax consequences to the Buyer and its Affiliates (including the imposition of withholding or other material taxes)) shall be excessive in view of the benefits to be obtained by the Sellers therefrom.

Section 5.08. Special Provisions Relating to Securities. Unless and until an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Sellers shall have given notice to the applicable Grantor of the Sellers’ intent to exercise such rights (it being acknowledged and agreed that the Sellers shall not be required to deliver any such notice if not permitted under any Debtor Relief Laws), each Grantor shall have the right to exercise all voting, consensual and other powers of ownership pertaining to all Collateral for all purposes not inconsistent with the terms of the this Agreement and the Purchase Agreement; and the Sellers shall, at such Grantor’s expense, execute and deliver to such Grantor or cause to be executed and delivered to such Grantor all such proxies, powers of attorney, dividend and other orders and other instruments, without recourse, as such Grantor may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling such Grantor to exercise the rights and powers that it is entitled to exercise pursuant to this Section 5.08.

Section 5.09. Instruments.

The occurrence of an “Event of Default” pursuant to the HFOTCO Credit Agreement Documents or any Bond Document, irrespective of whether such event or condition results in any Indebtedness becoming due prior to its scheduled maturity, unless waived by the lenders party thereto so long as such waiver does not have a material and adverse affect on (i) the ability of Buyers to pay the Installment Payment when due or (ii) the value of the Collateral.

Section 7.03. Further Remedies. Without limiting the rights, powers and privileges of the Sellers under Article II or Section 7.02 or in any other Transaction Document, if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

(a)The Sellers in their discretion may require any Grantor to, and such Grantor shall, assemble the Collateral owned by it at such place or places reasonably convenient to both the Sellers and such Grantor.

(b)The Sellers in their discretion may make any reasonable compromise or settlement it deems desirable with respect to any of the Collateral and may extend the time of payment, arrange for payment in installments, or otherwise modify the terms of, all or any part of the Collateral.

(c)The Sellers in their discretion may, in its name or in the name of any Grantor or otherwise, demand, sue for, collect or receive any money or property at any time payable or receivable on account of or in exchange for all or any part of the Collateral, but shall be under no obligation to do so.

(d)Until the Discharge Date, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Governmental Rules, the Sellers in their discretion may, upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Holdings and the Buyers of the time and place, with respect to all or any part of the Collateral which shall then be or shall thereafter come into the possession, custody or control of the Sellers or any of its agents, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of all or any part of such Collateral, at such place or places as the Sellers

deems best, for cash, for credit or for future delivery (without thereby assuming any credit risk) and at public or private sale, without demand of performance or notice of intention to effect any such disposition or of time or place of any such sale (except such notice as is required above or by Governmental Rule and cannot be waived), and the Sellers or any other Person may be the purchaser, lessee or recipient of any or all of the Collateral so disposed of at any public sale (or, to the extent permitted by applicable Governmental Rules, at any private sale) and thereafter hold the same absolutely, free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind, including any right or equity of redemption (statutory or otherwise), of any Grantor, any such demand, notice and right or equity being hereby expressly waived and released. The Sellers may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for the sale, and such sale may be made at any time or place to which the sale may be so adjourned.

(e)The Sellers shall have, and in their discretion may exercise, all of the rights, remedies, powers and privileges with respect to the Collateral of a secured party under the UCC (whether or not the UCC is in effect in the jurisdiction where such rights, remedies, powers and privileges are asserted) and such additional rights, remedies, powers and privileges to which a secured party is entitled under the laws in effect in any jurisdiction where any rights, remedies, powers and privileges in respect of this Agreement or the Collateral may be asserted, including the right, to the maximum extent permitted by Governmental Rule, to exercise all voting, consensual and other powers of ownership pertaining to the Collateral (including the Security Collateral) as if the Sellers were the sole and absolute owner of the Collateral (and each Grantor agrees to take all such action as may be appropriate to give effect to such right).

(f)The Sellers in their discretion may, to the full extent provided by law, have a court having jurisdiction appoint a receiver, which receiver shall take charge and possession of and protect, preserve, replace and repair the Collateral or any part thereof, and manage and operate the same, and receive and collect all rents, income, receipts, royalties, revenues, issues and profits therefrom. Each Grantor irrevocably consents and, to the full extent permitted by law, shall be deemed to have hereby irrevocably consented to the appointment thereof, and upon such appointment each Grantor shall promptly deliver possession of any such Collateral then in its possession to the receiver. Each Grantor also irrevocably consents to the entry of an order authorizing such receiver to invest upon interest any funds held or received by the receiver in connection with such receivership. To the full extent permitted by law, the Sellers shall be entitled to such appointment as a matter of right, if it shall so elect, without the giving of notice to any other party and without regard to the adequacy of the security of the Collateral.

(g)The Sellers in their discretion may enforce one or more remedies hereunder, successively or concurrently, and such action shall not operate to estop or prevent the Sellers from pursuing any other or further remedy which it may have hereunder or by law, and any repossession or retaking or sale of the Collateral pursuant to the terms hereof shall not operate to release any Grantor until the Discharge Date. Each Grantor shall reimburse the Sellers promptly upon demand for the costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, transfer taxes and any other charges) incurred by the Sellers in connection with any sale, disposition, repair, replacement, alteration, addition, improvement or retention of any Collateral hereunder.

(h)    If, at any time when the Sellers shall determine to exercise their right to sell the whole or any part of the Ownership Collateral hereunder, such Ownership Collateral or the part thereof to be sold shall not, for any reason whatsoever, be effectively registered under the Act, then the Sellers may (subject only to applicable Governmental Rules), sell such Ownership Collateral or part thereof by private sale in such manner and under such circumstances as the Sellers may deem necessary or advisable, but subject to the other requirements of this Section 7.03, and shall not be required to effect such registration or to cause the same to be effected. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in any such event, the Sellers may (i) in accordance with applicable securities laws, proceed to make such private sale notwithstanding that a registration statement for the purpose of registering such Ownership Collateral or part thereof could be or shall have been filed under said Act, (ii) approach and negotiate with a single possible purchaser to effect such sale, and (iii) restrict such sale to a purchaser who is an accredited investor under the Act and who will represent and agree that such purchaser is purchasing for its own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or sale of such Ownership Collateral or any part thereof. In addition to a private sale as provided above in this Section 7.03, if any of the Ownership Collateral shall not be freely distributable to the public without registration under the Act (or similar statute) at the time of any proposed sale pursuant to this Section 7.03, then the Sellers shall not be required to effect such registration or cause the same to be effected but (subject only to applicable Governmental Rules) may require that any sale hereunder (including a sale at auction) be conducted subject to restrictions:

(i)as to the financial sophistication and ability of any Person permitted to bid or purchase at any such sale;

(ii)as to the content of legends to be placed upon any certificates representing the Ownership Collateral sold in such sale, including restrictions on future transfer thereof;

(iii)as to the representations required to be made by each Person bidding or purchasing at such sale relating to that Person’s access to financial information about the Grantors and such Person’s intentions as to the holding of the Ownership Collateral so sold for investment for its own account and not with a view to the distribution thereof; and

(iv)as to such other matters as the Sellers may deem necessary or appropriate in order that such sale (notwithstanding any failure so to register) may be effected in compliance with the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ right and the Act and all applicable state securities laws.

(i)    The Sellers in their discretion may generally, sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any Collateral as fully and completely as though the Sellers were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and do, at the Sellers’ option and each Grantor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things that the Sellers reasonably deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Sellers’ Liens thereon and to effect the intent of

this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as any Grantor might do.

(j)    (i) The Sellers in their discretion may and shall have the right to receive any and all cash dividends, payments or other Proceeds paid in respect of the Investment Property, and (ii) any or all of the Investment Property shall be registered in the name of the Sellers or their nominee, and the Sellers or their nominee may thereafter exercise (x) all voting, corporate and other rights pertaining to such Investment Property at any meeting of shareholders of the relevant Issuer or Issuers or otherwise and (y) any and all rights of conversion, exchange and subscription and any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to such Investment Property as if it were the absolute owner thereof (including, without limitation, the right to exchange at its discretion any and all of the Investment Property upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other fundamental change in the corporate or other organizational structure of any Issuer, or upon the exercise by any Grantor or the Sellers of any right, privilege or option pertaining to such Investment Property, and in connection therewith, the right to deposit and deliver any and all of the Investment Property with any committee, depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as the Sellers may determine), all without liability except to account for property actually received by it, but the Sellers shall have no duty to any Grantor to exercise any such right, privilege or option and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing.

(k)    Each Grantor hereby authorizes and instructs each Issuer of any Investment Property pledged by such Grantor hereunder to (i) comply with any instruction received by it from the Sellers in writing that (x) states that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (y) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without any other or further instructions from such Grantor, and each Grantor agrees that each Issuer shall be fully protected in so complying, and (ii) unless otherwise expressly permitted hereby, pay any dividends or other payments with respect to the Investment Property directly to the Sellers.

(l)    The Sellers may exercise any other remedies available to a secured or unsecured creditor at law or equity or under the UCC.

The proceeds of, and other realization upon, the Collateral by virtue of the exercise of remedies under this Section 7.03 shall be deposited in to a Collateral Account or such other account designated by the Sellers and applied in accordance with Section 7.08.

Section 7.04. Deficiency. If the proceeds of, or other realization upon, the Collateral by virtue of the exercise of remedies under Section 7.03 are insufficient to cover the costs and expenses of such exercise and the payment in full of the Obligations, the Grantors shall remain jointly and severally liable for any deficiency.

(a)The Sellers shall not incur any liability as a result of the sale, lease or other Disposition of all or any part of the Collateral at any private sale pursuant to Section 7.03 conducted in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner. Without limiting the foregoing, each Grantor hereby waives any claims against the Sellers arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Collateral may have been

sold at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the Obligations, even if the Sellers accepts the first offer received and does not offer the Collateral to more than one offeree.

(b)    Each Grantor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Act and applicable state securities laws, the Sellers may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Collateral pursuant to, or otherwise in compliance with, Section 7.03, to limit purchasers to those who will agree, among other things to acquire the Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to distribution or resale. Each Grantor acknowledges that any such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Sellers than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agree that any such private sale conducted in compliance with this Agreement shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Sellers shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the respective issuer of such Collateral to register it for public sale.

(c)    Sellers shall not sell Ownership Collateral to Sellers or any Affiliate of Sellers without the prior written consent of Holdings; provided that Sellers may credit bid at any public sale of the Ownership Collateral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 7.05(c) shall otherwise limit the ability of the Sellers or their Affiliates to take possession or control of the Collateral or take any other remedies available under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

Section 7.06. Sellers Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints the Sellers as such Grantor’s attorney-in-fact, with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or otherwise, at such Grantor’s sole cost and expense, from time to time to take any and all actions authorized or permitted to be taken by the Sellers under the Purchase Agreement with respect to enforcing its rights and remedies arising out of Section 2.2(c) thereto and under this Agreement, including the power to:

(a)take any action and execute any instrument which the Sellers may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement;

(b)ask for, demand, collect, sue for, recover, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in connection with all or any part of the Collateral;

(c)receive, indorse, and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents and chattel paper in connection therewith, all as the Sellers may reasonably determine necessary;

(d)file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings which the Sellers may deem to be necessary or desirable for the collection of any of the Collateral or to enforce compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement or the payment of the Obligations;

(e)    direct any party liable for any payment under any Collateral to make payment of any monies due or to become due thereunder directly to the Sellers or as the Sellers shall direct;

(f)    commence and prosecute any suit, action or proceeding at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect any Collateral and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral;

(g)    defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against any Grantor with respect to any Collateral;

(h)    settle, compromise or adjust any such suit, action or proceeding and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or releases as the Sellers may deem appropriate; and

(i)    generally, sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any Collateral as fully and completely as though the Sellers were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and do, at the Sellers’ option and each Grantor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things that the Sellers reasonably deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Sellers’ Liens thereon and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as any Grantor might do;

provided, however, that so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Sellers shall not exercise any of the aforementioned rights. This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until the Discharge Date and is conferred on the Sellers solely to protect, preserve and realize upon its security interest in the Collateral. Each Grantor hereby ratifies all that said attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof, in each case pursuant to the powers granted hereunder. Each Grantor hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Sellers shall have no fiduciary duties to any Grantor in acting pursuant to this power-of-attorney, and each Grantor hereby waives any claims or rights of a beneficiary of a fiduciary relationship hereunder.

Section 7.07. Cash Proceeds; Deposit Accounts. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in addition to the rights of the Sellers otherwise specified in this Agreement, all proceeds of any Collateral received by any Grantor consisting of cash, checks and other near-cash items (collectively, “Cash Proceeds”) shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Sellers, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Grantor, be turned over to the Sellers in the exact form received by such Grantor (duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Sellers, if required) and held by the Sellers in one or more accounts established by the Sellers under the sole dominion and control of the Sellers (collectively, the “Collateral Accounts”). Any Cash Proceeds received by the Sellers (whether from a Grantor or otherwise) may, in the sole discretion of the Sellers, (i) be held by the Sellers, as collateral security for the Obligations (whether matured or unmatured) and/or (ii) then or at any time thereafter may be applied by the Sellers against the Obligations then due and owing.

Section 7.08. Application of Proceeds. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all Proceeds received by the Sellers under this Agreement shall be applied as follows:

(i)    FIRST, to the payment of all costs and expenses of the sale, collection or other liquidation of the Collateral, including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel of the Sellers, and all other expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by the Sellers in connection therewith, and all amounts for which the Sellers are entitled to payment under Section 8.05 and such amounts paid or required to be paid (including any redemption or tender premiums and new issuance, arrangement, underwriting or similar fees, costs and expenses) to any lender, debt holder, financing source, agent, trustee or other representative with respect to any Indebtedness of any Group Member that is required to be amended, modified, refinanced or otherwise replaced in connection with, as a result of, or due to, the of any right or remedy (including the sale, transfer or other Disposition of any Collateral by the Sellers to any other Person) under this Agreement or claims arising out of Section 2.2(c) of the Purchase Agreement, and to the payment of all costs and expenses paid or incurred by the Sellers in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy under this Agreement or claims arising out of Section 2.2(c) of the Purchase Agreement, all in accordance with the terms thereof;
