        The Borrower has requested that the Lenders amend and restate the Existing Credit Agreement to be in the form hereof, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Amendment Agreement dated as of June 12, 2009, among the Borrower, the Lenders party thereto and the Agent (the "Amendment Agreement").

        Accordingly, as of the Restatement Effective Date, the Existing Credit Agreement is amended and restated to be in the form hereof.

        "ABR Borrowing" shall mean a Borrowing comprised of ABR Loans.

        "ABR Loan" shall mean any Standby Loan bearing interest at a rate determined by reference to the Alternate Base Rate in accordance with Article II.

        "Adjusted LIBO Rate" shall mean, with respect to any Eurodollar Borrowing for any Interest Period, an interest rate per annum (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the next¹/16 of 1%) equal to the product of (a) the LIBO Rate in effect for such Interest Period and (b) Statutory Reserves.

        "Administrative Questionnaire" shall mean an Administrative Questionnaire in a form supplied by the Agent.

        "Affiliate" shall mean, when used with respect to a specified Person, another Person that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, Controls or is Controlled by or is under common Control with the Person specified and, in any case, shall include, when used with respect to the Borrower or any Subsidiary, any joint venture in which the Borrower or such Subsidiary holds Equity Interests of any class representing 15% or more of the issued and outstanding Equity Interests of such class.

        "Agent" shall mean Citibank, N.A., in its capacity as administrative and collateral agent under the Loan Documents, and its successors in such capacity as provided in Article VIII.

        "Alternate Base Rate" shall mean, for any day, a rate per annum (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the next¹/16 of 1.00%) equal to the greatest of (a) the Prime Rate in effect on such day, (b) the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect on such day plus¹/2 of 1.00%, and (c) the Adjusted LIBO Rate on such day (or if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day) for a deposit in dollars with a maturity of one month, plus 1.00%.

(or on any successor or substitute screen of such service, or any successor to or substitute for such service, providing rate quotations comparable to those currently provided on such screen of such service, as determined by the Agent from time to time for purposes of providing quotations of interest rates applicable to dollar deposits in the London interbank market) at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, two Business Days prior to such day for deposits in dollars with a maturity of one month. If for any reason the Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) it is unable to ascertain the Federal Funds Effective Rate for any reason, including the inability or failure of the Agent to obtain sufficient quotations in accordance with the definition of such term, Alternate Base Rate shall be determined without regard to clause (b) above until the circumstances giving rise to such inability no longer exist, or (ii) reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate (determined as set forth above), the Alternate Base Rate shall be determined without regard to clause (c) above until such reasonable means again exist. Any change in the Alternate Base Rate due to a change in the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be effective from and including the effective date of such change in the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Adjusted LIBO Rate, as the case may be.

Within the foregoing limits, the Borrower may borrow, pay or prepay and reborrow hereunder, subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein.

        SECTION 2.02.    Loans.    (a) Each Standby Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their Commitments. Each Competitive Loan shall be made in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.03. At the time of the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurodollar Standby Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000. At the time that each ABR Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $1,000,000;provided that an ABR Borrowing may be in an aggregate principal amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the Total Commitment. Each Competitive Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000.

        (b)   Each Competitive Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of Eurodollar Competitive Loans or Fixed Rate Loans, and each Standby Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of Eurodollar Standby Loans or ABR Loans, as the Borrower may request pursuant to Section 2.03 or 2.04, as applicable. Each Lender may at its option make any Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan;provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time;provided that the Borrower shall not be entitled to request any Borrowing which, if made, would result in an aggregate of more than 10 separate Standby Loans of any Lender being outstanding

23

hereunder at any one time. For purposes of the foregoing, Loans having different Interest Periods, regardless of whether they commence on the same date, shall be considered separate Loans.

        (c)   Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof (i) in the case of a Eurodollar Loan, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Agent in New York, New York, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on such date and (ii) in the case of an ABR Loan or a Fixed Rate Loan, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Agent in New York, New York, not later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on such date, and the Agent shall promptly credit the amounts so received to the general deposit account of the Borrower with the Agent.

Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Agent such Lender's portion of such Borrowing, the Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with this paragraph (c), and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have made such portion available to the Agent, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to repay to the Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Effective Rate. If such Lender shall repay to the Agent such corresponding amount, such amount shall constitute such Lender's Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement.

        (d)   Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be entitled to request any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date.

A Competitive Bid Request that does not conform substantially to the format of Exhibit A-1 may be rejected by the Agent in its sole discretion, and the Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower of any such rejection. Each request for Competitive Bids shall refer to this Agreement and specify (x) whether the Competitive Borrowing then being requested is to be a Eurodollar Competitive Borrowing or a Fixed Rate Borrowing, (y) the date of such Competitive Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day) and the aggregate principal amount thereof, which shall be in a minimum principal amount of $10,000,000 and in an integral multiple of $1,000,000, and (z) the Interest Period with respect thereto (which may not end after the Maturity Date). Promptly after its receipt of a Competitive Bid Request that is not rejected as aforesaid, the Agent shall invite the Lenders, by means of the notice in the form of Exhibit A-2, to bid, on the terms and conditions of this Agreement, to make Competitive Loans requested pursuant to such Competitive Bid Request.

Competitive Bids that do not conform substantially to the format of Exhibit A-3 may be rejected by the Agent after conferring with, and upon the instruction of, the Borrower, and the Agent shall notify the Lender making such nonconforming Competitive Bids of such rejection as soon as practicable. Each Competitive Bid shall refer to this Agreement and specify (x) the principal amount (which shall be in a minimum principal amount of $10,000,000 and in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and which may equal the entire principal amount of the requested Competitive Borrowing) of the Competitive Loan or Loans that the Lender is willing to make to the Borrower, (y) the Competitive Bid Rate or Rates at which the Lender is prepared to make the Competitive Loan or Loans and (z) the Interest Period with respect thereto. A Competitive Bid submitted by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph (b) shall be irrevocable.

        (c)   With respect to each Competitive Bid Request, the Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower by fax of all the Competitive Bids made, the Competitive Bid Rate and the principal amount of each Competitive Loan in respect of which a Competitive Bid was made and the identity of the Lender that made each Competitive Bid. The Agent shall send a copy of all Competitive Bids to the Borrower for its records as soon as practicable after completion of the bidding process set forth in this Section.

        (d)   The Borrower may, in its sole and absolute discretion, subject only to the provisions of this paragraph (d), accept or reject any Competitive Bid. The Borrower shall notify the Agent by telephone, confirmed in writing by hand delivery or fax of a duly completed and executed Competitive Bid Accept/Reject Letter, whether and to what extent it has decided to accept or reject any of or all the Competitive Bids made pursuant to any Competitive Bid Request (x) in the case of a Eurodollar Competitive Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of the requested Competitive Borrowing, and (y) in the case of a Fixed Rate Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the day of the requested Competitive Borrowing;provided that, with respect to any Competitive Bid Request, (i) the failure by the Borrower to give such notice shall be deemed to be a rejection of all the Competitive Bids made pursuant thereto, (ii) the Borrower shall not accept a Competitive Bid made at a particular Competitive Bid Rate if it has decided to reject a Competitive Bid made at a lower Competitive Bid Rate, (iii) the aggregate principal amount of the Competitive Loans offered pursuant to the Competitive Bids accepted by the Borrower shall not exceed the principal amount specified in the Competitive Bid Request, (iv) if the Borrower shall accept a Competitive Bid or Competitive Bids made at a particular Competitive Bid Rate but the amount of such bid or bids shall cause the total amount of Competitive Bids to be accepted by the Borrower to exceed the amount specified in the Competitive Bid Request, then the Borrower shall accept a portion of such bid or bids in an amount equal to the amount specified in the Competitive Bid Request less the amount of all other Competitive Bids accepted with respect to such Competitive Bid Request, which acceptance, in the case of multiple bids at such Competitive Bid Rate, shall be made pro rata in accordance with the amount of each such bid at such Competitive Bid Rate, (v) the Borrower shall not accept a Competitive Bid or Competitive Bids, or a portion of such bid or bids, if, after giving effect thereto, the sum of the Revolving Credit Exposures of all the Lenders and the aggregate principal amount of all Competitive Loans outstanding at the time shall exceed the lesser of (x) the Total Commitment and (y) the Maximum Availability at the time and (vi) except pursuant to clauses (iv) and (v) above, no Competitive Bid shall be accepted for a Competitive Loan unless such

25

Competitive Loan is in a minimum principal amount of $10,000,000 and an integral multiple of $1,000,000;provided further that if a Competitive Loan must be in an amount less than $10,000,000 because of the provisions of clause (iv) or (v) above, such Competitive Loan may be for a minimum of $1,000,000 or any integral multiple thereof, and in calculating the pro rata allocation of acceptances of portions of multiple bids at a particular Competitive Bid Rate pursuant to clause (iv) above, the amounts shall be rounded to integral multiples of $1,000,000 in a manner which shall be in the discretion of the Borrower. A notice given by the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (d) shall be irrevocable.

        (e)   The Agent shall promptly notify each bidding Lender whether or not its Competitive Bid has been accepted (and if so, in what amount and at what Competitive Bid Rate), and each bidding Lender whose Competitive Bid has been accepted will thereupon become bound, subject to the other applicable conditions hereof, to make the Competitive Loan to the extent its Competitive Bid has been accepted.

        (f)    A Competitive Bid Request shall not be made within five Business Days after the date of any previous Competitive Bid Request.

        (g)   If the Agent shall elect to submit a Competitive Bid in its capacity as a Lender, it shall submit such bid directly to the Borrower one quarter of an hour earlier than the latest time by which the other Lenders are required to submit their bids to the Agent pursuant to paragraph (b) above.

        (h)   All notices required by this Section shall be given in accordance with Section 9.01.

        SECTION 2.04.    Standby Borrowing Procedure.    In order to request a Standby Borrowing, the Borrower shall hand deliver or fax to the Agent a duly completed and executed Standby Borrowing Request (a) in the case of a Eurodollar Standby Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of the requested Standby Borrowing and (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the day of the requested Standby Borrowing. Each such request shall be irrevocable and shall specify (i) whether the Borrowing then being requested is to be a Eurodollar Standby Borrowing or an ABR Borrowing; (ii) the date of such Standby Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day) and the amount thereof; and (iii) if such Borrowing is to be a Eurodollar Standby Borrowing, the Interest Period with respect thereto. If no election as to the Type of Standby Borrowing is specified in any such request, then the requested Standby Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Standby Borrowing is specified in any such request, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month's duration. The Agent shall promptly advise the Lenders of any request given pursuant to this Section and of each Lender's portion of the requested Borrowing.

        SECTION 2.05.    Standby Interest Elections.    (a) Each Standby Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Standby Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Standby Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Standby Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Standby Borrowing to a Standby Borrowing of a different Type or to continue such Standby Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar Standby Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Standby Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Standby Loans comprising such Standby Borrowing, and the Standby Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Standby Borrowing. This Section shall not apply to Competitive Borrowings, which may not be converted or continued.

        (b)   To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Agent of such election (each, an "Interest Election Request") by telephone by the time that a Standby Borrowing

26

Request would be required under Section 2.04 if the Borrower were requesting a Standby Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or fax to the Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Agent and signed by the Borrower.

        (c)   Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

          (i)  the Standby Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Standby Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Standby Borrowing);

         (ii)  the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

        (iii)  whether the resulting Standby Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Standby Borrowing; and

        (iv)  if the resulting Standby Borrowing is to be a Eurodollar Standby Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term "Interest Period".

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Standby Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month's duration.

        (d)   Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender's portion of each resulting Standby Borrowing.

        (e)   If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Standby Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Standby Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Standby Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Standby Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Standby Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

        SECTION 2.06.    Fees.    (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee (the "Commitment Fee"), which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the daily unused amount of the Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the Restatement Effective Date to but excluding the date on which such Commitment terminates. Accrued Commitment Fees shall be payable in arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Restatement Effective Date. All Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For purposes of computing Commitment Fees, (i) the Commitment of a Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent of such Lender's Revolving Credit Exposure and (ii) the outstanding Competitive Loans of any Lender shall be disregarded.

        (b)   The Borrower agrees to pay the Agent, for its own account, the fees (the "Agent's Fees") at the times and in the amounts agreed by the Borrower in the Fee Letter.

27

        (c)   All Fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Agent for distribution, if and as appropriate, among the Lenders. Once paid, none of the Fees shall be refundable under any circumstances absent manifest error.

        SECTION 2.07.    Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.    (a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) on the Maturity Date to the Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Standby Loan and (ii) on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto to the Agent for the applicable Lender(s) the then unpaid principal amount of each Competitive Loan.

        (b)   Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement. The Agent shall maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type of each Loan made and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each Lender's share thereof. The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to this Section shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations therein recorded;provided,however, that the failure of any Lender or the Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligations of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with their terms or cause the Borrower's obligations to be greater than they would have been absent such failure or error.

        (c)   Any Lender may request that Loans made by it to the Borrower be evidenced by a promissory note of the Borrower. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

        SECTION 2.08.    Interest on Loans.    (a) Subject to Section 2.09, the Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of each Eurodollar Standby Loan, the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate, and (ii) in the case of each Eurodollar Competitive Loan, the LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Margin offered by the Lender making such Loan and accepted by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.03. Accrued interest on each Eurodollar Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan. Each Reference Bank agrees upon the request of the Agent to furnish to the Agent timely information for the purpose of determining the LIBO Rate and the Adjusted LIBO Rate. If any one or more of the Reference Banks shall not furnish such timely information to the Agent for the purpose of determining any such interest rate, the Agent shall determine such interest rate on the basis of timely information furnished by the remaining Reference Banks.

        (b)   Subject to Section 2.09, the Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be) at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate. Accrued interest on each ABR Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for

28

such Loan. The Alternate Base Rate shall be determined by the Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

        (c)   Subject to Section 2.09, each Fixed Rate Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) equal to the fixed rate of interest offered by the Lender making such Loan and accepted by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.03. Accrued interest on each Fixed Rate Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date.

        SECTION 2.09.    Default Interest.    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (a) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and, except where an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under clause (b), (c), (g) or (h) of Article VII, after receipt of a request therefor from the Agent or the Required Lenders, the Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Standby Loan, payable in arrears on the dates referred to in Section 2.08, at a rate per annum (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) equal at all times to 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on such Standby Loan pursuant to Section 2.08(a) or 2.08(b), as applicable, and (b) to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Borrower shall pay interest on the amount of any interest, fee or other amount payable hereunder (other than the principal of any Standby Loan) that is not paid when due, from the date such amount shall be due until such amount shall be paid in full, payable in arrears on the date such amount shall be paid in full and on demand, at a rate per annum (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be) equal at all times to 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on ABR Loans pursuant to Section 2.08(b).

        SECTION 2.10.    Alternate Rate of Interest.    In the event, and on each occasion, that on the day two Business Days prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing the Agent shall have determined that dollar deposits in the principal amounts of the Eurodollar Loans comprising such Borrowing are not generally available in the London interbank market, or that the rates at which such dollar deposits are being offered will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to any Lender of making or maintaining its Eurodollar Loan during such Interest Period, or that reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, the Agent shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, give written or fax notice of such determination to the Borrower and the Lenders. In the event of any such determination, until the Agent shall have advised the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (a) any request by the Borrower for a Eurodollar Competitive Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.03 shall be of no force and effect and shall be denied by the Agent and (b) any request by the Borrower for a Eurodollar Standby Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.04 shall be deemed to be a request for an ABR Borrowing. In the event of any such determination, the Lenders shall negotiate with the Borrower, at its request, as to the interest rate which the Loans comprising such an ABR Borrowing shall bear;provided that such Loans shall bear interest as provided in Section 2.08(b) pending the execution by the Borrower and each Lender of a written agreement providing for a different interest rate. Each determination by the Agent hereunder shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

        SECTION 2.11.    Termination and Reduction of Commitments.    (a) Unless previously terminated, the Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date.

        (b)   Upon at least three Business Days' prior irrevocable written or fax notice to the Agent, the Borrower may at any time in whole permanently terminate, or from time to time in part permanently reduce, without penalty but subject to Section 2.15, the Total Commitment;provided that (i) each partial reduction of the Total Commitment shall be in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and in a minimum principal amount of $5,000,000 and (ii) no such termination or reduction shall be made if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in

29

accordance with Section 2.12, the sum of the Revolving Credit Exposures of all the Lenders plus the aggregate principal amount of all Competitive Loans outstanding at the time would exceed the lesser of (x) the Total Commitment and (y) the Maximum Availability at the time.

        (c)   In the event and on any occasion that any Net Proceeds are received by or on behalf of the Borrower or any Subsidiary in respect of any sale, transfer or other disposition of Equity Interests in INTECH or Perkins pursuant to Section 6.04(c)(iv), the Total Commitment shall, on the second Business Day immediately following the day such Net Proceeds are received, be automatically permanently reduced by an amount equal to the product of (i) the Applicable Percentage and (ii) the Total Commitment as in effect immediately prior to such reduction (and the Borrower shall make the prepayment, if any, required to be made as a result of such reduction pursuant to Section 2.12(c))

        (d)   Each reduction in the Total Commitment under this Section 2.11 shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of the Lenders, on the date of each termination or reduction of the Total Commitment under this Section 2.11, the Commitment Fees on the amount of the Commitments so terminated or reduced accrued through the date of such termination or reduction.

        SECTION 2.12.    Prepayment.    (a) The Borrower shall have the right, at any time and from time to time, to prepay any Standby Borrowing, in whole or in part, upon giving written or fax notice (or telephone notice promptly confirmed by written or fax notice) to the Agent prior to (i) 1:00 p.m., New York City time, two Business Days prior to the date of prepayment, in the case of Eurodollar Standby Loans, and (ii) before 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day of the date of prepayment, in the case of ABR Loans;provided that each partial prepayment shall be in an amount which is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than (A) $5,000,000 in the case of a Eurodollar Standby Borrowing and (B) $1,000,000 in the case of an ABR Borrowing or, if less, the aggregate principal amount of such Standby Borrowing. The Borrower shall not have the right to prepay any Competitive Borrowing.

        (b)   In the event and on each occasion that the sum of the Revolving Credit Exposures of all the Lenders plus the aggregate principal amount of all Competitive Loans outstanding exceeds, on any day, the Maximum Availability on such day, the Borrower shall, not later than the immediately following Business Day, (i) prepay Standby Borrowings in an amount equal to the lesser of the aggregate principal amount of the Standby Borrowings then outstanding and the amount of such excess and (ii) to the extent the amount of such excess shall exceed the aggregate principal amount of the Standby Borrowings then outstanding, prepay Competitive Borrowings in an amount sufficient to eliminate such remaining excess.

        (c)   In the event and on each occasion that the Total Commitment is reduced pursuant to Section 2.11, and, following such reduction, the sum of the Revolving Credit Exposures of all the Lenders plus the aggregate principal amount of all Competitive Loans outstanding exceeds the Total Commitment, the Borrower shall, on such day, (i) prepay Standby Borrowings in an amount equal to the lesser of the aggregate principal amount of the Standby Borrowings then outstanding and the amount of such excess and (ii) to the extent the amount of such excess shall exceed the aggregate principal amount of the Standby Borrowings then outstanding, prepay Competitive Borrowings in an amount sufficient to eliminate such remaining excess. In the event of a termination of all of the Commitments, the Borrower shall repay or prepay all the outstanding Loans on the date of such termination.

30

        (d)   In the event and on any occasion that any Net Proceeds are received by or on behalf of the Borrower or any Subsidiary in respect of (i) any issuance of preferred Equity Interests in or other preferred securities of the Borrower, (ii) any sale, transfer or other disposition of Equity Interests in INTECH or Perkins pursuant to Section 6.04(c)(iv) or (iii) any sale, transfer or other disposition of securities of Stanfield Victoria Funding LLC pursuant to Section 6.04(c)(v), the Borrower shall (A) within two Business Days after such Net Proceeds are received, prepay Standby Borrowings in an aggregate amount equal to the lesser of the aggregate principal amount of the Standby Borrowings then outstanding and the amount of such Net Proceeds and (B) solely in the case of any event described in clause (i) or (ii) above, to the extent the amount of such Net Proceeds shall exceed the aggregate principal amount of the Standby Borrowings then outstanding, within 90 Business Days after such Net Proceeds are received, prepay (or cause any Subsidiary to prepay) other Indebtedness of the Borrower or any Subsidiary in an aggregate amount equal to the lesser of the aggregate principal amount of all such other Indebtedness then outstanding and 75% of such excess.

        (e)   Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Standby Borrowing (or portion thereof) to be prepaid, shall be irrevocable and shall commit the Borrower to prepay such Standby Borrowing (or portion thereof) by the amount stated therein on the date stated therein. All prepayments under this Section shall be subject to Section 2.15, but shall otherwise be without premium or penalty. All prepayments under this Section shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the principal amount being prepaid to the date of payment.

        SECTION 2.13.    Reserve Requirements; Change in Circumstances.    (a) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if after the Closing Date any change in applicable law or regulation or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof (whether or not having the force of law) shall change the basis of taxation of payments to any Lender of the principal of or interest on any Eurodollar Loan or Fixed Rate Loan made by such Lender or any Fees or other amounts payable hereunder (other than changes in respect of Taxes imposed on the overall net income of such Lender by the jurisdiction in which such Lender has its principal or applicable lending office or by any political subdivision or taxing authority therein), or shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of or credit extended by such Lender (except any such reserve requirement which is reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate), or shall impose on such Lender or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or any Eurodollar Loan or Fixed Rate Loan made by such Lender, and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the direct cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan or Fixed Rate Loan or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) by an amount reasonably deemed by such Lender to be material, then the Borrower will pay to such Lender upon demand such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall be entitled to request compensation under this paragraph with respect to any Competitive Loan if it shall have been aware of the change giving rise to such request at the time of submission of the Competitive Bid pursuant to which such Competitive Loan shall have been made.

        (b)   If any Lender shall have determined that the applicability of any law, rule, regulation or guideline adopted pursuant to or arising out of the July 1988 report of the Basle Committee on Banking Regulations and Supervisory Practices entitled "International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards", or the adoption after the Closing Date of any other law, rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital adequacy, or any change in any of the foregoing or in the interpretation or administration of any of the foregoing by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or any lending office of such Lender) or any Lender's holding

31

company with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's capital or on the capital of such Lender's holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by such Lender pursuant hereto to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender's holding company could have achieved but for such applicability, adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender's policies and the policies of such Lender's holding company with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount reasonably deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender's holding company for any such reduction suffered.

        (c)   Failure on the part of any Lender to demand compensation for any increased costs or reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital with respect to any period shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender's right to demand compensation with respect to such period or any other period. The protection of this Section shall be available to each Lender regardless of any possible contention of the invalidity or inapplicability of the law, rule, regulation, guideline or other change or condition which shall have occurred or been imposed.

        SECTION 2.14.    Change in Legality.    (a) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if any change in any law or regulation or in the interpretation thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the administration or interpretation thereof shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain any Eurodollar Loan or to give effect to its obligations as contemplated hereby with respect to any Eurodollar Loan, then, by written notice to the Borrower and to the Agent, such Lender may:

          (i)  declare that Eurodollar Loans will not thereafter be made by such Lender hereunder, whereupon such Lender shall not submit a Competitive Bid in response to a request for Eurodollar Competitive Loans and any request by the Borrower for a Eurodollar Standby Borrowing shall, as to such Lender only, be deemed a request for an ABR Loan unless such declaration shall be subsequently withdrawn; and

         (ii)  require that all outstanding Eurodollar Loans made by it be converted to ABR Loans, in which event all such Eurodollar Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans as of the effective date of such notice as provided in paragraph (b) below.

In the event any Lender shall exercise its rights under clause (i) or (ii) above, and (x) all payments and prepayments of principal which would otherwise have been applied to repay the Eurodollar Loans that would have been made by such Lender or the converted Eurodollar Loans of such Lender shall instead be applied to repay the ABR Loans made by such Lender in lieu of, or resulting from the conversion of, such Eurodollar Loans and (y) such Lender shall negotiate with the Borrower, at its request, as to the interest rate which such ABR Loans shall bear;provided that such Loans shall bear interest as provided in Section 2.08(b) pending the execution by the Borrower and such Lender of a written agreement providing for a different interest rate.

        (b)   For purposes of this Section, a notice to the Borrower by any Lender shall be effective as to each Eurodollar Loan, if lawful, on the last day of the Interest Period currently applicable to such Eurodollar Loan; in all other cases such notice shall be effective on the date of receipt by the Borrower.

        SECTION 2.15.    Indemnity.    The Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss (other than loss of profits) or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) any failure by the Borrower to fulfill on the date of any borrowing hereunder the applicable conditions set forth in Article IV, (b) any failure by the Borrower to borrow or to refinance or continue any Loan hereunder, for any reason other than a default by such Lender, after irrevocable notice of such

32

borrowing, refinancing or continuation has been given pursuant to Section 2.03, 2.04 or 2.05, (c) any payment, prepayment or conversion of a Eurodollar Loan or Fixed Rate Loan required by any other provision of this Agreement or otherwise made or deemed made on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (d) any default in payment or prepayment by the Borrower of the principal amount of any Loan or any part thereof or interest accrued thereon, as and when due and payable (at the due date thereof, whether by scheduled maturity, acceleration, irrevocable notice of prepayment or otherwise) or (e) the occurrence of any Event of Default, including, in each such case, any loss (other than loss of profits) or reasonable expense sustained or incurred or to be sustained or incurred in liquidating or employing deposits from third parties acquired to effect or maintain such Loan or any part thereof as a Eurodollar Loan or Fixed Rate Loan. Such loss or reasonable expense shall include an amount equal to the excess, if any, as reasonably determined by such Lender, of (i) its cost of obtaining the funds for the Loan being paid, prepaid, converted or not borrowed (assumed to be the Adjusted LIBO Rate or, in the case of a Fixed Rate Loan, the fixed rate of interest applicable thereto) for the period from the date of such payment, prepayment or failure to borrow to the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, the Interest Period for such Loan which would have commenced on the date of such failure) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) that would be realized by such Lender in reemploying the funds so paid, prepaid or not borrowed for such period or Interest Period, as the case may be. This Section 2.15 shall not apply with respect to Taxes, other than Taxes that represent losses or damages arising from any non-Tax claim.

        SECTION 2.16.    Pro Rata Treatment.    Except as required under Section 2.14, each Standby Borrowing, each payment or prepayment of principal of any Standby Borrowing, each payment of interest on the Standby Loans, each payment of the Commitment Fees, each reduction of the Commitments and each refinancing of any Borrowing with a Standby Borrowing of any Type, shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments (or, if such Commitments shall have expired or been terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amounts of their outstanding Standby Loans). Each payment of principal of any Competitive Borrowing shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders participating in such Borrowing in accordance with the respective principal amounts of their outstanding Competitive Loans comprising such Borrowing. Each payment of interest on any Competitive Borrowing shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders participating in such Borrowing in accordance with the respective amounts of accrued and unpaid interest on their outstanding Competitive Loans comprising such Borrowing. For purposes of determining the available Commitments of the Lenders at any time, each outstanding Competitive Borrowing shall be deemed to have utilized the Commitments of the Lenders (including those Lenders which shall not have made Loans as part of such Competitive Borrowing) pro rata in accordance with such respective Commitments, except as set forth in Section 2.06(a). Each Lender agrees that in computing such Lender's portion of any Borrowing to be made hereunder, the Agent may, in its discretion, round each Lender's percentage of such Borrowing to the next higher or lower whole dollar amount.

        SECTION 2.17.    Sharing of Setoffs.    Each Lender agrees that if it shall, through the exercise of a right of banker's lien, setoff or counterclaim against the Borrower, or pursuant to a secured claim under Section 506 of Title 11 of the United States Code or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim, received by such Lender under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law or otherwise, or by any other means, obtain payment (voluntary or involuntary) in respect of any Standby Loan or Loans as a result of which the unpaid principal portion of the Standby Loans of such Lender shall be proportionately less than the unpaid principal portion of the Standby Loans of any other Lender, it shall be deemed simultaneously to have purchased from such other Lender at face value, and shall promptly pay to such other Lender the purchase price for, a participation in the Standby Loans of such other Lender, so that the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Standby Loans and participations in the Standby Loans held by each Lender shall be in the

33

same proportion to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Standby Loans then outstanding as the principal amount of its Standby Loans prior to such exercise of banker's lien, setoff or counterclaim or other event was to the principal amount of all Standby Loans outstanding prior to such exercise of banker's lien, setoff or counterclaim or other event;provided,however, that, if any such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be made pursuant to this Section and the payment giving rise thereto shall thereafter be recovered, such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be rescinded to the extent of such recovery and the purchase price or prices or adjustment restored without interest. The Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangements and agrees that any Lender holding a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements deemed to have been so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker's lien, setoff or counterclaim with respect to any and all moneys owing by the Borrower to such Lender by reason thereof as fully as if such Lender had made a Standby Loan directly to the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

        SECTION 2.18.    Payments.    (a) The Borrower shall make each payment (including principal of or interest on any Borrowing or any Fees or other amounts) hereunder and under any other Loan Document not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date when due in dollars to the Agent at its offices at Citi Global Loans, 1615 Brett Road, OPS 3, New Castle, DE 19720, ABA 021 00 00 89, Account No. 36852248, Attention: Mark Rosenthal, in immediately available funds.

        (b)   Whenever any payment (including principal of or interest on any Borrowing or any Fees or other amounts) hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall become due, or otherwise would occur, on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or Fees, if applicable.

        (c)   In the event that any financial statements delivered under Section 5.04(a) or 5.04(b), or any certificate delivered under Section 5.04(c), shall prove to have been materially inaccurate (regardless of whether any Commitments are in effect or any amounts are outstanding hereunder when such inaccuracy is discovered), and such inaccuracy shall have resulted in the payment of any interest or fees at rates lower than those that were in fact applicable for any period (based on the actual Leverage Ratio), the Borrower shall pay to the Agent, for distribution to the Lenders (or former Lenders) as their interests may appear, the accrued interest or fees that should have been paid but were not paid as a result of such misstatement.

        SECTION 2.19.    Taxes.    (a) Each payment by any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without withholding for any Taxes, unless such withholding is required by any law, as modified by the practice then in effect of any Governmental Authority. If any Withholding Agent determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it is so required to withhold Taxes, then such Withholding Agent may so withhold and shall timely pay the full amount of withheld Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. If such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes, then the amount payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that, net of such withholding (including such withholding applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section 2.19), the applicable Recipient receives the amount it would have received had no such withholding been made.

        (b)   The Loan Parties shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

        (c)   Within 30 days after any payment of Indemnified Taxes by a Loan Party to a Governmental Authority, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Agent at its address referred to in Section 9.01 the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.

34

        (d)   The Loan Parties shall severally indemnify each Recipient for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes payable by such Recipient with respect to any Loan Document or any payment by such Loan Party under any Loan Document (including amounts payable under this Section 2.19) and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnity under this paragraph (d) shall be paid within 30 days after the date the Recipient delivers to the applicable Loan Party a certificate stating the amount of Indemnified Taxes so payable by such Recipient. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so payable absent manifest error. Such Recipient shall deliver a copy of such certificate to the Agent.

        (e)   The Lenders shall severally indemnify the Agent for the full amount of any Excluded Taxes payable by the Agent with respect to any Loan Document or any payment by any Loan Party under any Loan Document and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Excluded Taxes were correctly imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority, except to the extent that any such amount or payment is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Agent. The indemnity under this paragraph (e) shall be paid within 30 days after the Agent delivers to the applicable Lender a certificate stating the amount of Excluded Taxes so payable by the Agent. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so payable absent manifest error.

        (f)    (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, any applicable withholding Tax with respect to payments under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will permit such payments to be made without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding. In addition, any Lender shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth below in this paragraph (f)) shall not be required if in the Lender's judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. Upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent, any Lender shall update any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.19. If any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect with respect to a Lender, such Lender shall promptly (and in any event within 10 days after such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy) notify the Borrower and the Agent in writing of such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy.

         (ii)  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Borrower is a U.S. Person, any Lender with respect to the Borrower shall, if it is legally eligible to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (in such number of copies reasonably requested by the Borrower and the Agent) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party hereto (or, in the case of a participation holder, on or before the date such participation is effective hereunder) and on or before the date, if any, such Lender changes its applicable lending office by designating a new lending office, duly completed and executed copies of whichever of the following is applicable:

        (A)  in the case of a Lender that is a U.S. Person, IRS Form W-9;

35

        (B)  in the case of a Lender (other than a U.S. Person) claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (1) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the "interest" article of such tax treaty and (2) with respect to all other payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the "business profits" or "other income" article of such tax treaty;

        (C)  in the case of a Lender (other than a U.S. Person) for whom payments under any Loan Document constitute income that is effectively connected with such Lender's conduct of a trade or business in the United States, IRS Form W-8ECI;

        (D)  in the case of a Lender (other than a U.S. Person) claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code both (1) IRS Form W-8BEN and (2) a certificate to the effect that such Lender is not (a) a "bank" within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (b) a "10 percent shareholder" of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, (c) a "controlled foreign corporation" described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (d) conducting a trade or business in the United States with which the relevant interest payments are effectively connected;

        (E)  in the case of a Lender (other than a U.S. Person) that either is not the beneficial owner of payments made under any Loan Document or is a partnership (1) an IRS Form W-8IMY on behalf of itself and (2) the relevant forms prescribed in clauses (A), (B), (C), (D) and (F) of this paragraph (f)(ii) that would be required of each such beneficial owner or partner of such partnership if such beneficial owner or partner were a Lender; or

        (F)  any other form prescribed by law as a basis for claiming exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax together with such supplementary documentation necessary to enable the Borrower or the Agent to determine the amount of Tax (if any) required by law to be withheld.

        (g)   If any Recipient determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.19 (including additional amounts paid by any Loan Party pursuant to this Section 2.19), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.19 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including any Taxes) of such Recipient and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such Recipient, shall repay to such Recipient the amount paid to such Recipient pursuant to the previous sentence (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event such Recipient is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will any Recipient be required to pay any amount to any Loan Party pursuant to this paragraph (g) if such payment would place such Recipient in a less favorable position (on a net after-Tax basis) than such Recipient would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This paragraph (g) shall not be construed to require any Recipient to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to any Loan Party or any other Person.

        (h)   Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement contained herein, the agreements and obligations contained in this Section 2.19 shall survive termination of the Loan Documents and payment of any obligations thereunder.

36

        SECTION 2.20.    Termination or Assignment of Commitments under Certain Circumstances.    In the event that any Lender shall fail to pay amounts due to the Agent pursuant to Section 2.02(c) or any Lender shall have delivered a notice or certificate pursuant to Section 2.13 or 2.14, or the Borrower shall be required to make additional payments to any Lender under Section 2.19, and provided that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower shall have the right, at its own expense, upon notice to such Lender and the Agent, to require such Lender to transfer and assign without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04) all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (other than any outstanding Competitive Loans held by it) to an Eligible Assignee which shall assume such obligations;provided that (i) no such termination or assignment shall conflict with any law, rule or regulation or order of any Governmental Authority, (ii) the Borrower or such assignee, as the case may be, shall pay to the affected Lender in immediately available funds on the date of such termination or assignment the principal of and interest accrued to the date of payment on the Loans (other than Competitive Loans) made by it hereunder and all other amounts accrued for its account or owed to it hereunder (other than any outstanding Competitive Loans held by it), (iii) if such assignee is not a Lender, the Agent shall have given its prior written consent to such replacement (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld) and the Borrower or such financial institution shall have paid a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 to the Agent and (iv) in the case of any assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.13 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.19, such assignment will result in a reduction of such compensation or payments thereafter. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

        SECTION 2.21.    Lending Offices and Lender Certificates; Survival of Indemnity.    To the extent reasonably possible, each Lender shall designate an alternate lending office with respect to its Eurodollar Loans and Fixed Rate Loans to reduce any liability of the Borrower to such Lender under Section 2.13 or to avoid the unavailability of Eurodollar Loans under Section 2.10 or 2.14, so long as such designation is not disadvantageous to such Lender. A good faith certificate of a Lender setting forth a reasonable basis of computation and allocation of the amount due under Section 2.13 or 2.15 shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Borrower in the absence of manifest error. The amount specified in any such certificate shall be payable on demand after receipt by the Borrower of such certificate. The obligations of the Borrower under Sections 2.13, 2.15, 2.18(c), 2.19 and 9.05 shall survive the payment of all amounts due under any Loan Document and the termination of this Agreement.

ARTICLE III

This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Borrower and constitutes, and each other

37

Loan Document to which any Loan Party is to be a party, when executed and delivered by such Loan Party, will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower or such other Loan Party, enforceable against the Borrower or such other Loan Party in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally.

        SECTION 3.03.    No Conflict; Governmental Consent.    None of the Transactions will violate any law, rule, regulation, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree or award binding on the Borrower or any Subsidiary or the Borrower's or any Subsidiary's articles or certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational documents or the provisions of any indenture, instrument or agreement to which the Borrower or any Subsidiary is a party or is subject, or by which it, or its property, is bound, or conflict therewith or constitute a default thereunder, or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien in, of or on the property of the Borrower or any Subsidiary pursuant to the terms of any such indenture, instrument or agreement, except for Liens created under the Loan Documents.

Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary has received notice of any material failure so to comply which could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The Borrower's and the Subsidiaries' facilities do not manage any hazardous wastes, hazardous substances, hazardous materials, toxic substances, toxic pollutants or substances similarly denominated, as those terms or similar terms are used in the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act, the Toxic Substance Control Act, the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act or any other applicable law relating to environmental pollution or employee health and safety, in violation in any material respect of any law or any regulations promulgated pursuant thereto.

It is understood that downgrades or negative pronouncements by rating agencies and volatility in the capital markets generally shall not in and of themselves be considered material adverse changes, but that the antecedents or consequences thereof may constitute such changes (except to the extent the same constitute Disclosed Matters).

        SECTION 3.07.    Subsidiaries.    Schedule 3.07 contains an accurate list of all the significant joint ventures and all the Subsidiaries, in each case on and as of the Restatement Effective Date, setting forth their respective jurisdictions of organization and the percentage of their respective ownership interests held by the Borrower or other Subsidiaries, and identifies each Subsidiary that is a Designated Subsidiary on and as of the Restatement Effective Date.

        SECTION 3.08.    Litigation.    Except for any Disclosed Matter, there is no litigation, arbitration, governmental investigation, proceeding or inquiry pending or, to the knowledge of any of their officers, threatened against or affecting the Borrower or any Subsidiary that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

        SECTION 3.09.    Material Agreements.    Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary is in default in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in any agreement to which it is a party, which default could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

        SECTION 3.11.    Investment Company Act.    Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary is an "investment company" or a company "controlled" by an "investment company", within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

        SECTION 3.13.    Taxes.    The Borrower and each Subsidiary (other than the Excluded Subsidiary) have filed all United States Federal Tax returns, in the case of the Borrower and each Domestic Subsidiary, and all other Tax returns which are required to be filed and have paid all Taxes due pursuant to said returns or pursuant to any assessment received by the Borrower or any such Subsidiary, including all Federal and state withholding Taxes and all Taxes required to be paid pursuant to applicable law, except such Taxes, if any, as are being contested in good faith and as to which adequate reserves have been provided. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Borrower and the Consolidated Subsidiaries in respect of any Taxes or other governmental charges are adequate.

        SECTION 3.14.    Accuracy of Information.    The Borrower has disclosed to the Lenders all agreements, instruments and corporate or other restrictions to which the Borrower or any Subsidiary is subject, and all other matters known to the Borrower, that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Confidential Information Memorandum nor any of the other reports, financial statements, certificates or other written or formally presented information furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower or any Loan Party to the Agent or any Lender in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, included herein or therein or furnished hereunder or thereunder (in each case taken as a whole and as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished) contains any material misstatement of fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in

39

the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;provided that, as to financial projections, if any, that have been prepared by the Borrower and made available to the Agent, any Lender or any potential Lender, the Borrower only represents and warrants that such financial projections have been prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed by the management of the Borrower to be reasonable at the time of preparation (it being understood such projections are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the Borrower's control, and that no assurance can be given that the projections will be realized and the variations therefrom may be material).

        SECTION 3.15.    No Undisclosed Dividend Restrictions.    Except for restrictions hereunder, and except for restrictions on the payment of dividends under applicable law, none of the Subsidiaries (other than the Excluded Subsidiary) is subject to any agreement, amendment, covenant or understanding that directly or indirectly (through the application of financial covenants or otherwise) restricts the ability of such entity to declare or pay dividends.

        SECTION 3.16.    Properties.    (a) The Borrower and each Subsidiary has good title to, or valid leasehold interests in, all its property (other than Intellectual Property) material to its business (including its Mortgaged Properties), except where the failure to have such title or leasehold interest could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have Material Adverse Effect.

        (b)   The Borrower and each Subsidiary (other than the Excluded Subsidiary) owns, or is licensed to use, all trademarks, tradenames, copyrights, patents and other Intellectual Property material to the operation of its business, and, to the knowledge of the Borrower, the use thereof by the Borrower and the Subsidiaries does not infringe upon the Intellectual Property rights of any other Person, except for any such infringements that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

        (c)   As of the Restatement Effective Date, neither the Borrower nor any Designated Subsidiary owns any parcel of real property in fee.

        SECTION 3.17.    Collateral Matters.    (a) The Collateral Agreement, upon execution and delivery thereof by the parties thereto, will create in favor of the Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a valid and enforceable security interest in the Collateral (as defined therein) and (i) when the Collateral constituting certificated securities (as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code) is delivered to the Agent, together with instruments of transfer duly endorsed in blank, the security interest created under the Collateral Agreement will constitute a fully perfected security interest in all right, title and interest of the pledgors thereunder in such Collateral, prior and superior in right to any other Person, and (ii) when financing statements in appropriate form are filed in the applicable filing offices, the security interest created under the Collateral Agreement will constitute a fully perfected security interest in all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in the remaining Collateral to the extent perfection can be obtained by filing Uniform Commercial Code financing statements, prior and superior to the rights of any other Person, except for rights secured by Liens permitted by Section 6.02.

        (b)   Each Mortgage, upon execution and delivery thereof by the parties thereto, will create in favor of the Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in all the applicable mortgagor's right, title and interest in and to the Mortgaged Properties subject thereto and the proceeds thereof, and when the Mortgages have been filed in the jurisdictions specified therein, the Mortgages will constitute a fully perfected security interest in all right, title and interest of the mortgagors in the Mortgaged Properties and the proceeds thereof, prior and superior in right to any other Person, but subject to Liens permitted by Section 6.02.

        (c)   Upon the recordation of the IP Security Agreements with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office, as applicable, and the filing of the

40

financing statements referred to in paragraph (a) of this Section, the security interest created under the Collateral Agreement will constitute a fully perfected security interest in all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in the Intellectual Property that is included in the Collateral and in which a security interest may be perfected by filing in the United States of America, in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person, but subject to Liens permitted by Section 6.02 (it being understood that subsequent recordings in the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office may be necessary to perfect a security interest in such Intellectual Property acquired by the Loan Parties after the Restatement Effective Date).

THE AGENT

        Each of the Lenders and the Syndication Agent hereby irrevocably appoints the entity named as Agent in the heading of this Agreement to serve as administrative and collateral agent under the Loan Documents, and authorizes the Agent to take such actions and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Lenders and the Syndication Agent hereby authorize the Agent, and the Agent hereby agrees, to hold any Collateral pledged under any Foreign Pledge Agreement governed by the laws of England or Wales in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Lenders, and none of the Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any such provisions.

        The Person serving as the Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent, and such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

        The Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or to exercise any discretionary power, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in the Loan Documents),provided that the Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion, could expose the Agent to liability or be contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the

57

circumstances as provided in Section 9.08) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or wilful misconduct. The Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Agent by the Borrower or a Lender, and the Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Agent or satisfaction of any condition that expressly refers to the matters described therein being acceptable or satisfactory to the Agent.

        The Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall not incur any liability for relying, upon any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person (including, if applicable, a Financial Officer of such Person). The Agent also may rely, and shall not incur any liability for relying, upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person (including, if applicable, a Financial Officer or a Responsible Officer of such Person). The Agent may consult, including in connection with any determination by the Agent pursuant to its authority set forth in the definition of the term "Collateral and Guarantee Requirement", with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any determination made or action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

        The Agent may perform any of and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Agent. The Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any of and all their duties and exercise their rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article VIII shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Agent.

        Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent as provided in this paragraph, the Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, after consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000 or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. After the Agent's resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article VIII and Section 9.05 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its sub agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Agent.

        Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, the arrangers or any other Lender, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and

58

decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, the arrangers or any other Lender, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

        Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to the Amendment Agreement or delivering its signature page to an Assignment and Assumption pursuant to which it shall become a Lender hereunder, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be delivered to, or be approved by or satisfactory to, the Agent or the Lenders on the Restatement Effective Date.

        Each Lender agrees (a) to reimburse the Agent, on demand, in the amount of its pro rata share (based on its Commitment hereunder or, if the Total Commitment shall be terminated, the percentage it holds of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans) of any expenses incurred for the benefit of the Lenders by the Agent, including counsel fees and compensation of agents and employees paid for services rendered on behalf of the Lenders, which shall not have been reimbursed by the Borrower and (b) to indemnify and hold harmless the Agent and any of its Related Parties, on demand, in the amount of such pro rata share, from and against any and all claims for liabilities, Taxes, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against it in its capacity as the Agent or any of them in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any action taken or omitted by it or any of them under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, to the extent the same shall not have been reimbursed by the Borrower;provided that no Lender shall be liable to the Agent or any of its Related Parties for any portion of such claim for liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent that such claim is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Agent or any of its Related Parties. The obligations of the Lenders under this Article VIII shall survive the payment of all amounts due under any Loan Document and the termination of this Agreement.

        No Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce any security interest in the Collateral or Guarantee of the Obligations, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof. In the event of a foreclosure by the Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition, the Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition, and the Agent, as agent for and representative of the Secured Parties (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities unless Required Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by the Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties at such sale or other disposition. Each Secured Party, whether or not a party hereto, will be deemed, by its acceptance of the benefits of the Collateral and of the Guarantees of the Obligations provided under the Loan Documents, to have agreed to the foregoing provisions.

        Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Person named on the cover page of this Agreement as an Arranger or Syndication Agent shall have any duties or obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except in its capacity, as applicable, as a Lender), but all such Persons shall have the benefit of the indemnities provided for hereunder.

Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 9.04), the Arrangers, the Syndication Agent and the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

60

        (b)   Each Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Standby Loans at the time owing to it);provided,however, that (i) each such assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee, (ii) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all the assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, (iii) except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the Commitment or Loans (subject to, in the case of Competitive Loans, the final sentence of this paragraph) the amount of the Commitment of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Agent) shall not be less than $10,000,000 and shall be an integral multiple of $1,000,000, (iv) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent an Assignment and Assumption and the Lenders party to such Assignment and Assumption shall pay to the Agent a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (except that no recordation fee shall be required if the assignee is an Affiliate of the assignor) and (v) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. Upon acceptance and recording pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, (A) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement and (B) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto (but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13, 2.15, 2.19 and 9.05, as well as to any Fees accrued for its account hereunder and not yet paid)). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Lender assigning its rights and obligations under this Agreement may retain any Competitive Loans made by it outstanding at such time, and in such case shall retain its rights hereunder in respect of any Loans so retained until such Loans have been repaid in full in accordance with this Agreement.

        (c)   The Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the "Register"). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

        (d)   Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, an Administrative Questionnaire completed in respect of the assignee (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) above and, if required, the written consent of the Borrower and the Agent to such assignment, the Agent shall (i) accept such Assignment and Assumption and (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register.

        (e)   (i) Each Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Agent, sell to any Person (other than the Borrower) that shall have represented to such Lender that such Person is not (A) an Affiliate of the Borrower or (B) an investment manager, any investment company or any similar entity that, in each case, is managed or advised by the Borrower or an Affiliate of the Borrower, participations in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it);provided that (x) such

61

Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (y) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (z) the Borrower, the Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, and such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the obligations of the Borrower relating to the Loans and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided however that the agreement or instrument pursuant to which such Lender sells a participation may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.08(b) or in Section 9.08A. A participant shall be entitled to the benefit of the cost protection provisions contained in Sections 2.13, 2.15 and 2.19 to the same extent as it were a Lender;provided,however, that a participant shall not be entitled to receive any more than the selling Lender would have received had it not sold the participation.

         (ii)  Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a record of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant's interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the "Participant Register"). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement.

        (f)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a "Granting Lender") may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an "SPC") of such Granting Lender, identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Agent and the Borrower, the option to provide to the Borrower all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.01,provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment to make any Loan by any SPC, (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof, (iii) such Granting Lender's other obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (iv) such Granting Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (v) the Borrower, the Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Granting Lender in connection with such Granting Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by the Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the related Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or similar proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section or in Section 9.16, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrower or the Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to its Granting Lender or to any financial institutions providing liquidity and/or credit facilities to or for the account of such SPC to fund the Loans made by such SPC or to support the securities (if any) issued by such SPC to fund such Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis, to the extent such disclosure would be permitted under Section 9.16 if such SPC were a Lender, any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of a surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.

62

        (g)   Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section 9.04 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest;provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

        SECTION 9.05.    Expenses; Indemnity.    (a) The Borrower agrees to pay all reasonable and invoiced out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agent and its Affiliates in connection with the arrangement and syndication of the credit facility established hereby, the preparation of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions hereby contemplated shall be consummated and except for such costs and expenses incurred after the termination of this Agreement), or incurred by the Agent or any Lender in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the Loans made hereunder, including the reasonable and invoiced fees, charges and disbursements of Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP and, in connection with any such enforcement or protection, the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any other counsel for the Agent or any Lender (it being agreed that, except in connection with any such enforcement or protection, the Borrower shall be responsible for the fees, charges and disbursements of only one counsel unless, in the judgment of the Agent, additional counsel shall be required as a result of any conflict of interests). The Borrower further agrees that it shall indemnify the Lenders from and hold them harmless against any documentary Taxes that arise from or are connected to the execution and delivery of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

        (b)   The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Lender, the Arrangers, the Syndication Agent, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing (each such Person being called an "Indemnitee") against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all claims, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable and invoiced counsel fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel selected by the Agent for all the Indemnitees, such local counsel as the Agent may in good faith deem advisable and, in the event the Agent shall have determined that a conflict of interest makes it inadvisable for a single counsel to represent all the Indemnitees, such additional counsel as may be required by reason of such conflict), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of or in connection with (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties thereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated thereby, (ii) the use of the proceeds of the Loans or (iii) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and whether initiated against or by any party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any Affiliate of any of the foregoing or any third party (and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto);provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such claim (whether brought by a Lender or any other Person), damage, liability or expense is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from (x) the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) the material breach of such Indemnitee's obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby. Each of the parties hereto also agrees not to assert any claim for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages against any Loan Party, the Agent, any Arranger, the Syndication Agent, any Lender or any Related Party of any of the foregoing on any theory of liability, arising out of or otherwise relating to this Agreement, any of the transactions contemplated herein or the actual or proposed use of proceeds of the Loans.

63

        (c)   The provisions of this Section shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Agent or any Lender. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable on written demand therefor.

        SECTION 9.06.    Right of Setoff.    If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any of and all the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and other Loan Documents owed to by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such other Loan Document and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender and each Affiliate under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender and such Affiliate may have.

        SECTION 9.07.    Applicable Law.    THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

        SECTION 9.08.    Waivers; Amendment.    (a) No failure or delay of the Agent or any Lender in exercising any power or right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Agent and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies which they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) below, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

        (b)   Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders;provided,however, that no such agreement shall (i) decrease the principal amount of, or extend the maturity of or any scheduled principal payment date or date for the payment of any interest on any Loan, or waive or excuse any such payment or any part thereof, or decrease the rate of interest on any Loan, without the prior written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (ii) change or extend the Commitment or decrease or extend the date for payment of the Facility Fees or Utilization Fees of any Lender without the prior written consent of such Lender, (iii) amend or modify the provisions of Section 2.16, the provisions of this Section or the definition of "Required Lenders" without the prior written consent of each Lender or (iv) release Janus Capital Management LLC from the LLC Guarantee, or limit its liability in respect of the LLC Guarantee, in any case without the prior written consent of each Lender;provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Agent or the Swingline Lender hereunder without the prior written consent of the Agent or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any provision of this Agreement may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by the Borrower, the Required Lenders and the Agent if (A) by the terms of such agreement the Commitment of each Lender not consenting to the amendment provided for therein shall terminate upon the effectiveness of such amendment and (B) at the time such amendment becomes effective, each

64

Lender not consenting thereto receives payment in full of the principal of and interest accrued on each Loan made by it and all other amounts owing to it or accrued for its account under this Agreement;provided that the Borrower may prevent any such amendment from becoming effective by a notice delivered to the Agent at any time prior to such effectiveness, in which case the Commitments of the non-consenting Lenders will not terminate and their Loans will not be required to be repaid. Each Lender shall be bound by any waiver, amendment or modification authorized by this Section and any consent by any Lender pursuant to this Section shall bind any Person subsequently acquiring a Loan from it.

        SECTION 9.08A.    Certain Amendments.    (a) Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, (i) all references in Section 9.08(b) to the Facility Fees and the Utilization Fees will be deemed to be references to the Commitment Fees (it being understood that the aggregate amount of the fees and interest payable to the Lenders hereunder will under all circumstances be greater than under the Existing Credit Agreement) and (ii) all references in Section 9.08(b) to the Swingline Lender shall be disregarded. No agreement referred to in Section 9.08 shall (A) release the Borrower or any other material Loan Party from its Guarantee under the Collateral Agreement (except as expressly provided herein or in the Collateral Agreement), or limit its liability in respect of such Guarantee, without the prior written consent of each Lender or (B) release all or substantially all of the Collateral from the Liens of the Security Documents, without the prior written consent of each Lender.

        (b)   Subject to Section 9.08 and paragraph (a) of this Section 9.08A, neither any Loan Document (other than this Agreement or the Fee Letter) nor any provision thereof may be amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Agent and the Loan Party or Loan Parties that are party thereto, in each case with the consent of the Required Lenders.

        SECTION 9.09.    Interest Rate Limitation.    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the applicable interest rate, together with all fees and charges which are treated as interest under applicable law (collectively the "Charges"), as provided for herein or in any other document executed in connection herewith, or otherwise contracted for, charged, received, taken or reserved by any Lender, shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the "Maximum Rate") which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by such Lender in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable on the Loans made by such Lender, together with all Charges payable to such Lender, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate.

        SECTION 9.10.    Entire Agreement.    This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract between the parties relative to the subject matter hereof. Any previous agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof is superseded by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Nothing in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto and thereto any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

        SECTION 9.11.    WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.    EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AS

65

APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

        SECTION 9.12.    Severability.    In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

        SECTION 9.13.    Counterparts.    This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute but one contract.

        SECTION 9.14.    Headings.    Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

        SECTION 9.15.    Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.    (a) Each party to this Agreement hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or Federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York City, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that any party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents against any other party or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

        (b)   Each party to this Agreement hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents in any New York State or Federal court. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

        (c)   Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

        SECTION 9.16.    Confidentiality; Material Non-Public Information.    (a) Each Lender agrees to keep confidential and not to disclose (and to cause its officers, directors, employees, agents, Affiliates and representatives to keep confidential and not to disclose) all Information (as defined below), except that such Lender shall be permitted to disclose Information (i) to such of its officers, directors, employees, advisors, agents, Affiliates and representatives as need to know such Information in connection with the servicing and protection of its interests in respect of its Loans and Commitments, the Loan Documents and the Transactions; (ii) to the extent required by applicable laws and regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process or requested by any Governmental Authority having or claiming to have jurisdiction over such Lender; (iii) to any other party to this Agreement for purposes directly related to this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (iv) in connection with any suit or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (v) subject to an

66

agreement containing confidentiality undertakings substantially similar to those of this Section, to (A) any assignee of or participant in, or any prospective assignee of or participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (B) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its Related Parties) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower or any Subsidiary and its obligations; (vi) to the extent such Information (A) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach by such Lender of this Agreement, (B) is generated by such Lender or becomes available to such Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower or its Affiliates or the Agent, or (C) was available to such Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to its disclosure to such Lender by the Borrower or its Affiliates or the Agent; or (vii) to the extent the Borrower shall have consented to such disclosure in writing. As used in this Section, "Information" shall mean the Confidential Memorandum and any other confidential materials, documents and information relating to the Borrower that the Borrower or any of its Affiliates may have furnished or made available or may hereafter furnish or make available to the Agent or any Lender in connection with this Agreement.

        (b)   Each Lender acknowledges that Information furnished to it pursuant to this Agreement may include material non-public information concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates or the Borrower's securities, and confirms that it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and that it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with those procedures and applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws.

        (c)   All information, including requests for waivers and amendments, furnished by any Borrower or the Agent pursuant to, or in the course of administering, this Agreement will be syndicate-level information, which may contain material non-public information about the Borrower and its Affiliates or the Borrower's securities. Accordingly, each Lender represents to the Borrower and the Agent that it has identified in its Administrative Questionnaire a credit contact who may receive information that may contain material non-public information in accordance with its compliance procedures and applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws.

        (d)   Each Transferee shall be deemed, by accepting any assignment or participation hereunder, to have agreed to be bound by this Section.

        SECTION 9.17.    Electronic Communications.    (a) The Borrower hereby agrees that, unless otherwise requested by the Agent, it will provide to the Agent all information, documents and other materials that it is obligated to furnish to the Agent pursuant to Section 5.04(a), (b), (c), (f), (g), (h), (i), (k) and (l) (the "Communications") by transmitting the Communications in an electronic/soft medium (provided such Communications contain any required signatures) in a format reasonably acceptable to the Agent to oploanswebadmin@citigroup.com (or such other e-mail address as shall be designated by the Agent from time to time);provided that any delay or failure to comply with the requirements of this Section 9.17(a) shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default hereunder.

        (b)   Each party hereto agrees that the Agent may make the Communications available to the Lenders by posting the Communications on IntraLinks or another relevant website, if any, to which each Lender and the Agent have access (whether a commercial, third-party website or whether sponsored by the Agent) (the "Platform"). Nothing in this Section shall prejudice the right of the Agent to make the Communications available to the Lenders in any other manner specified in the Loan Documents.

        (c)   Each Lender agrees that e-mail notice to it (at the address provided pursuant to the next sentence and deemed delivered as provided in the next paragraph) specifying that Communications have been posted to the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of such Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees (i) to notify the Agent in writing (including by electronic communication) from time to time to ensure that the Agent has on record an effective e-mail address for such Lender to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (ii) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such e-mail address.

67

        (d)   Each party hereto agrees that any electronic communication referred to in this Section shall be deemed delivered upon the posting of a record of such communication (properly addressed to such party at the e-mail address provided to the Agent) as "sent" in the e-mail system of the sending party or, in the case of any such communication to the Agent or any Lender, upon the posting of a record of such communication as "received" in the e-mail system of the Agent or any Lender;provided that if such communication is not so received by the Agent or a Lender during the normal business hours of the Agent or applicable Lender, such communication shall be deemed delivered at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the Agent or applicable Lender.

        (e)   Each party hereto acknowledges that (i) the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution, (ii) the Communications and the Platform are provided "as is" and "as available," (iii) none of the Agent, its Affiliates or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the "Citigroup Parties") warrants the adequacy of the Platform or the accuracy or completeness of the Communications or the Platform, and each Citigroup Party expressly disclaims liability for errors or omissions in any Communications or the Platform, and (iv) no warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Citigroup Party in connection with any Communications or the Platform.

        SECTION 9.18.    Patriot Act.    Each Lender that is subject to Section 326 of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the "Patriot Act") hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act.

        SECTION 9.20.    Release of Liens and Guarantees.    A Subsidiary Loan Party shall automatically be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents, and all security interests created by the Security Documents in Collateral owned by such Subsidiary Loan Party shall be automatically released, upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by this Agreement as a result of which such Subsidiary Loan Party ceases to be a Subsidiary.

GLOBAL INTERCOMPANY NOTE

New York, New York
June [    ], 2009

        Each of the parties identified on the signature pages hereto (each, a "Note Party") hereby promises to pay to the order of each applicable Intercompany Lender (as hereinafter defined), in lawful money of the United States of America or, in respect of extensions of credit in another currency, in such other currency as agreed to by the applicable Intercompany Lender and the applicable Intercompany Debtor (as hereinafter defined), in each case in immediately available funds, at such location in the United States of America or at such other location as the applicable Intercompany Lender shall from time to time designate, all amounts as may be owing from time to time by such Note Party (in such capacity, an "Intercompany Debtor") to each other Note Party (in such capacity, an "Intercompany Lender") in consideration of Indebtedness (such term, and each other capitalized term used but not defined herein, having the meaning assigned thereto in the Credit Agreement referred to below) owed by such Intercompany Debtor to such Intercompany Lender, together with interest thereon at such rate as may be agreed upon from time to time, if any, between the applicable Intercompany Debtor and the applicable Intercompany Lender (any such Indebtedness being referred to herein as "Intercompany Indebtedness"). Some of the Intercompany Indebtedness may also be evidenced by a promissory note issued prior to, or from time to time after, the date hereof by an Intercompany Debtor to an Intercompany Lender (each, an "Intercompany Note"). This Note shall evidence all Intercompany Indebtedness, whether or not any Intercompany Indebtedness is also evidenced by a separate Intercompany Note. In the event of a conflict between the terms of any Intercompany Note and the provisions set forth in the second, third, fourth and fifth paragraphs of this Note, the provisions of this Note shall control, and such Intercompany Note shall be deemed modified to the extent thereof.

        Subject to the next following paragraph, each Intercompany Debtor shall pay all Intercompany Indebtedness owing under this Note to any Intercompany Lender at such time or times as may be agreed upon from time to time between such Intercompany Debtor and such Intercompany Lender;provided,however, that upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Enforcement Event (as defined below), each Intercompany Debtor shall pay all Intercompany Indebtedness owing under this Note to any Intercompany Lender to which such Intercompany Debtor is obligated on demand of such Intercompany Lender. Each Intercompany Lender may make any such demand for all or any subset of the amounts owing to such Intercompany Lender under this Note, upon all Intercompany Debtors obligated to such Intercompany Lender or any such Intercompany Debtor, without the consent or permission of any other Note Party.

        Upon the commencement of any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment of debt, relief of debtors, insolvency or liquidation or similar proceeding in any jurisdiction relating to any Note Party, all Intercompany Indebtedness owing by such Note Party to each Intercompany Lender under this Note shall become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind in connection with this Note.

        Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Enforcement Event, all payments under this Note shall be made without offset, counterclaim or deduction of any kind. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Enforcement Event, any amount owing by any Intercompany Debtor to any Intercompany Lender shall not be reduced in any way by any outstanding obligations of such Intercompany Lender to such Intercompany Debtor, whether such obligations are monetary or otherwise. Each Intercompany Lender is hereby authorized to record all amounts owing in consideration of Intercompany Indebtedness extended by the Intercompany Debtors to such Intercompany Lender, all of which shall be evidenced by this Note, and all repayments thereof, in its books and records in accordance with its usual practice, such books and records constituting prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information contained therein;provided,however that the failure of any Intercompany Lender to record such information shall not affect any Intercompany Debtor's

obligations in respect of Intercompany Indebtedness extended by such Intercompany Lender to such Intercompany Debtor.

        Each Intercompany Debtor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand, protest and notice of any kind whatsoever. No delay on the part of any Intercompany Lender in the exercise of any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. No amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent with respect to, any provision of this Note shall in any event be effective against any Note Party unless the same shall be in writing and signed and delivered by such Note Party. This Note shall be construed as a separate agreement with respect to each Note Party and may be amended, modified, supplemented, waived or released with respect to any Note Party without the approval of any other Note Party and without affecting the obligations of any other Note Party hereunder.

        Upon execution and delivery after the date hereof by any Subsidiary of Janus Capital Group Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Janus"), of a counterpart signature page hereto, such Subsidiary shall become a Note Party hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Note Party hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Note Party hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Note Party as a party to this Note.

        Pursuant to the Credit Agreement dated as of October 19, 2005, as amended and restated as of June 1, 2007, and as further amended and restated as of June [    ], 2009 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Credit Agreement"), among Janus, the Lenders party thereto, Citibank, N.A., as Agent, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Syndication Agent, this Note shall be pledged by the Intercompany Lenders in accordance therewith. Each Intercompany Debtor hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Agent may, pursuant to such agreements and any other applicable agreements as in effect from time to time, exercise all rights provided therein with respect to this Note. For purposes hereof, an "Enforcement Event" shall be deemed to have occurred and be continuing if an Event of Default (as defined in the Credit Agreement) shall have occurred and is continuing and either (a) all or any part of the Obligations shall have been declared, or shall have automatically become, due and payable or (b) the Agent or the Secured Parties shall have commenced the exercise of their rights as secured creditors with respect to this Note.

        This Note and all Indebtedness evidenced hereby is subject to the subordination provisions of the Intercompany Indebtedness Subordination Agreement dated as of June [    ], 2009, among Janus, its Subsidiaries party thereto and the Agent, as the same may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time.

THIS NOTE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

EXHIBIT F

INTERCOMPANY INDEBTEDNESS
SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT

        Reference is made to the Credit Agreement dated as of October 19, 2005, as amended and restated as of June 1, 2007, and as further amended and restated as of June [    ], 2009 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Credit Agreement"), among Janus Capital Group Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Borrower"), the Lenders party thereto, Citibank, N.A., as Agent, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Syndication Agent.

        From time to time the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (each, a "Note Party") have made, and will make, loans, advances and other extensions of credit to one or more of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (any such Indebtedness resulting from such extensions of credit being referred to herein as "Intercompany Indebtedness"; any Note Party that is an obligor thereon is referred to herein as the "Intercompany Debtor", and any Note Party that is an obligee thereunder is referred to herein as the "Intercompany Lender").

        The Lenders have agreed to extend credit to the Borrower subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement. In accordance with the Credit Agreement, each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries desire to enter into this Agreement in order to subordinate, on the terms set forth herein, its rights, as an Intercompany Lender, to payment under any Intercompany Indebtedness to the prior payment in full of the Obligations. The Borrower and its Subsidiaries will derive substantial benefits from the extension of credit to the Borrower pursuant to the Credit Agreement and are willing to execute and deliver this Agreement in order to induce the Lenders to extend such credit. Accordingly, the parties hereto agree as follows:

        1.    Definitions.    Capitalized terms used but not defined herein (including the preliminary statements hereto) shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Credit Agreement. The rules of construction specified in Sections 1.02 and 1.03 of the Credit Agreement also apply to this Agreement,mutatis mutandis. For purposes of this Agreement, the Lenders and any other obligees in respect of any Obligations are sometimes referred to as "Senior Lenders".

        2.    Subordination.    (a) Each Intercompany Lender hereby agrees that all its right, title and interest in, to and under the Intercompany Indebtedness shall be subordinate, and junior in right of payment, to the rights of the obligees in respect of the Obligations.

        (b)   Upon any distribution of the assets of the Intercompany Debtor, or upon any dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization of the Intercompany Debtor, whether in bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement or receivership proceedings or otherwise, or upon any assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other marshaling of the assets and liabilities of the Intercompany Debtor, or otherwise:

          (i)  the Senior Lenders shall first be entitled to receive indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Obligations (whenever arising) owed by such Intercompany Debtor before any Intercompany Lender shall be entitled to receive any payment on account of the Intercompany Indebtedness owed by such Intercompany Debtor, whether of principal, interest or otherwise; and

         (ii)  any payment by, or on behalf of, or distribution of the assets of, such Intercompany Debtor of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to which any Intercompany Lender would be entitled except for the provisions of this Section shall be paid or delivered by the Note Party making such payment or distribution (whether a trustee in bankruptcy, a receiver, custodian or liquidating trustee or otherwise) directly to the Agent, until the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all Obligations.

        (c)   In the event that any payment by, or on behalf of, or distribution of the assets of, an Intercompany Debtor of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, and whether directly, by purchase, redemption, exercise of any right of setoff or otherwise, shall be

received by or on behalf of an Intercompany Lender after the occurrence, with respect to such Intercompany Debtor, of any proceeding, attachment or other event, condition or circumstance specified in clause (b) above, such payment or distribution shall be held by such Intercompany Lender in trust (segregated from other property of such Intercompany Lender) for the benefit of the Agent, and shall forthwith be paid over to the Agent, in each case until the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all Obligations.

        3.    Waivers and Consents.    (a) Each Intercompany Lender waives the right to compel that any property or asset of any Intercompany Debtor or any property or asset of any guarantor of the Obligations or any other Person be applied in any particular order to discharge the Obligations. Each Intercompany Lender expressly waives the right to require any Agent or any Senior Lender to proceed against any Intercompany Debtor, any guarantor of any Obligations or any other Person, or to pursue any other remedy in its or their power that such Intercompany Lender cannot pursue and that would lighten such Intercompany Lender's burden, notwithstanding that the failure of any Agent or any Senior Lender to do so may thereby prejudice such Intercompany Lender. Each Intercompany Lender agrees that it shall not be discharged, exonerated or have its obligations hereunder reduced by any Agent's or any Senior Lender's delay in proceeding against or enforcing any remedy against any Intercompany Debtor, any guarantor of any Obligations or any other Note Party; by any Agent or any Senior Lender releasing any Intercompany Debtor, any guarantor of any Obligations or any other Note Party from all or any part of the Obligations; or by the discharge of any Intercompany Debtor, any guarantor of any Obligations or any other Note Party by an operation of law or otherwise, with or without the intervention or omission of any Agent or any Senior Lender.

        (b)   Each Intercompany Lender waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by any Agent or any Senior Lender, even though that election of remedies, including any nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to any property or asset securing any Obligations, has impaired the value of such Intercompany Lender's rights of subrogation, reimbursement, or contribution against any Intercompany Debtor, any guarantor of the Obligations or any other Person. Each Intercompany Lender expressly waives any rights or defenses it may have by reason of protection afforded to any Intercompany Debtor, any guarantor of the Obligations or any other Note Party with respect to the Obligations pursuant to any anti-deficiency laws or other laws of similar import that limit or discharge the principal debtor's indebtedness upon judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure of property or assets securing any Obligations.

        (c)   Each Intercompany Lender agrees that, without the necessity of any reservation of rights against it, and without notice to or further assent by it, any demand for payment of any Obligations made by any Agent or any Senior Lender may be rescinded in whole or in part by such Agent or Senior Lender, and any Obligation may be continued, and the Obligations or the liability of any Intercompany Debtor, any guarantor thereof or any other Person obligated thereunder, or any right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Agents or the Senior Lenders, in each case without notice to or further assent by such Intercompany Lender, which will remain bound hereunder, and without impairing, abridging, releasing or affecting the subordination provided for herein.

        (d)   Each Intercompany Lender waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Obligations, and any and all notice of or proof of reliance by the Senior Lenders upon this Agreement. The Obligations, and any of them, shall be deemed conclusively to have been created, contracted or incurred, and the consent to create the obligations of any Intercompany Debtor in respect of the Intercompany Indebtedness shall be deemed conclusively to have been given, in reliance upon this Agreement. Each Intercompany Lender waives any protest, demand for payment and notice of default.

2

        4.    Obligations Unconditional.    All rights and interests of the Agent and the Senior Lenders hereunder, and all agreements and obligations of each Intercompany Lender and each Intercompany Debtor hereunder, shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of:

        (a)   any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document;

        (b)   any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations or any amendment or waiver or other modification, whether by course of conduct or otherwise, of, or consent to departure from, the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document;

        (c)   any release, amendment, waiver or other modification, whether in writing or by course of conduct or otherwise, of or consent to departure from, any guarantee of any Obligations; or

        (d)   any other circumstances that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Intercompany Debtor in respect of the Obligations or of such Intercompany Lender or such Intercompany Debtor in respect of the subordination provisions set forth herein.

        5.    Waiver of Claims.    (a) To the maximum extent permitted by law, each Intercompany Lender waives any claim it might have against any Agent or any Senior Lender with respect to, or arising out of, any action or failure to act or any error of judgment, negligence, or mistake or oversight whatsoever on the part of any Agent or any Senior Lender, or any of their Related Parties, with respect to any exercise of rights or remedies under the Loan Documents, except to the extent due to the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Agent or such Senior Lender, as the case may be. None of the Agent, the Senior Lenders or any of their Related Parties, shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any guarantee of any Obligations, or for any delay in doing so, or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any such property or asset upon the request of any Intercompany Debtor, any Intercompany Lender or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to any such property or asset, or any part thereof, or any such guarantee.

        6.    Further Assurances.    Each Intercompany Lender and each Intercompany Debtor, at its own expense and at any time from time to time, upon the reasonable written request of the Agent will promptly and duly execute and deliver such further instruments and documents and take such further actions as the Agent reasonably may request for the purposes of obtaining or preserving the full benefits of the subordination provisions set forth herein and of the rights and powers herein granted.

        7.    Provisions Define Relative Rights.    These subordination provisions are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Senior Lenders on the one hand and the Intercompany Lenders on the other, and no other Person shall have any right, benefit or other interest under these subordination provisions.

        8.    Severability.    Any provision of this Agreement that 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.

        9.    Amendments in Writing; No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.    (a) None of the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except by a written instrument executed by each of the parties hereto.

        (b)   No failure by any Agent or any Senior Lender to exercise, and no delay by such Agent or Senior Lender in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder

3

shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

        (c)   The rights, remedies, powers and privileges hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers or privileges provided by law.

        10.    Section Headings.    The section headings used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction hereof or be taken into consideration in the interpretation hereof.

        11.    Successors and Assigns.    This Agreement, including the waivers contained herein, shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each Intercompany Debtor and each Intercompany Lender and shall inure to the benefit of the Senior Lenders and their successors and assigns.

12.WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY SENIOR LENDER HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH SENIOR LENDER WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT, THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO AND THE SENIOR LENDERS HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

        13.    Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.    (a) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in the county of New York and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State Court or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in such Federal court. Each party hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that any party or any Senior Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against any other party, or any of its properties, in the courts of any jurisdiction.

        (b)   Each party to this Agreement hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court referred to in paragraph (a) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

        (c)   Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in the Credit Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

        14.    Additional Subsidiaries.    Upon execution and delivery after the date hereof by any Subsidiary of a counterpart signature page hereto, such Subsidiary shall become a party hereto with the same force and effect as if originally named as a party hereunder. The rights and obligations under this

4

Agreement of each other party hereto shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Subsidiary as a party to this Agreement.

        15.    Governing Law.    This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

        16.    Termination.    This Agreement shall terminate when all the Loan Document Obligations (other than Contingent Obligations) have been paid in full and the Lenders have no further commitment to lend under the Credit Agreement.
