and the words “to” and “until” mean “to but excluding”. The words “include”, “includes” and “including” shall be deemed in each case to be followed by the phrase “without limitation”. The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall”. Unless the context requires otherwise (a) any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument or other document herein shall be construed in each case as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, supplemented or otherwise modified (subject to any restrictions on such amendments, supplements or modifications set forth herein), (b) any reference herein to any Person shall be construed in each case to include such Person’s successors and assigns, (c) the words “herein”, “hereof” and “hereunder”, and words of similar import shall be construed in each case to refer to this Agreement in its entirety and not to any particular provision hereof, and (d) all references herein to Articles, Sections, Exhibits and Schedules shall be construed to refer to Articles and Sections of, and Exhibits and Schedules to, this Agreement.

For the purposes of Section 2.05 only, the term “Borrower” or “Borrowers” shall exclude any Broker-Dealer Subsidiary.

SECTION 1.03. Accounting Terms; GAAP; Calculation of Debt to Equity Ratio.

(a) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature shall be construed in accordance with GAAP, as in effect from time to time; provided that if the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent that it requests an amendment to any provision hereof to eliminate the effect of any change occurring after the date hereof in GAAP or in the application thereof on the operation of such provision (or if the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the Majority Lenders request an amendment to any provision hereof for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such change in GAAP or in the application thereof, then such provision shall be interpreted on the basis of GAAP as in effect and applied immediately before such change shall have become effective until such notice shall have been withdrawn or such provision amended in accordance herewith.

(b) Calculation of the Debt to Equity Ratio shall be based on relevant information in the financial statements and asset schedules delivered pursuant to Sections 6.01(a)(i), (ii) and (vi) giving pro forma effect to such information where appropriate; provided that the amount of Total Debt shall be the amount outstanding as of the date of determination after giving effect to the incurrence of any Indebtedness on such date of determination.

For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time.

ARTICLE II

THE COMMITMENTS

SECTION 2.01. The Loans.

(a) (i) Each Lender severally agrees, on and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, to make loans to the Borrowers under this Section 2.01(a)(i) (each, a “Loan”) from time to time on any Business Day during the Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding up to but not exceeding the Commitment of such Lender and, as to all Lenders and all Borrowers, in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding up to but not exceeding the Aggregate Borrowing Availability (or the Alternate Currency Equivalent thereof).

(ii) ABR Loans shall be denominated in Dollars, and Eurocurrency Loans may be denominated in Dollars or one or more Alternate Currencies.

(iii) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the Total Credit Exposure shall not at any time exceed the then Aggregate Facility Amount.

(iv) Within such limits, the Borrowers may from time to time borrow under this Section 2.01, prepay Loans in whole or in part pursuant to Section 3.06(a) and reborrow under this Section 2.01.

(v) The Borrowers shall be co-borrowers with respect to each Borrowing, and shall be jointly and severally liable for all obligations and liabilities with respect thereto in accordance with Sections 2.05 and 2.06.

(b) Borrowing Procedure. (i) Each Borrowing shall be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 in the case of a Borrowing of Eurocurrency Loans, or $1,000,000, in the case of a Borrowing of ABR Loans, or in each case an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or, in the case of a Borrowing denominated in an Alternate Currency, the Alternate Currency Equivalent thereof, rounded to the nearest 1,000 units of such Alternate Currency), and shall be made on notice by the requesting Borrower to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the third Business Day (or, with respect to Interest Periods other than one, two, three or six months, fourth Business Day) prior to the date of such Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Loans or not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the date of such Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of ABR Loans, and the Administrative Agent shall give each Lender prompt notice thereof.

(ii) Each such notice of a Borrowing (a “Notice of Borrowing”) shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrowers and shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit C, specifying therein the requested (1) date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (2) Type of Loans comprising such Borrowing, (3) aggregate amount of such Borrowing, stated in Dollars, and the Currency thereof and (4) in the case of a Borrowing of Eurocurrency Loans, initial Interest Period for such Loans.

(iii) Each Lender shall, before 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date of such Borrowing, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Account, in same day funds, such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing.

(iv) After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds, and subject to the satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Article IV, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the requesting Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to such account of such Borrower as the Administrative Agent and such Borrower may agree.

(v) If the requesting Borrower fails to specify a Type of Loan in a Notice of Borrowing, then the applicable Loans shall be made as ABR Loans. If the requesting Borrower fails to provide a timely notice of Conversion or Continuation with respect to a Borrowing of Eurocurrency Loans, then such Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Continuation with respect thereto with an Interest Period of one month. If the requesting Borrower requests a Borrowing of, Conversion to, or Continuation of Eurocurrency Loans in any such Notice of Borrowing, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month. If the requesting Borrower requests a Borrowing of, Conversion to, or Continuation of Eurocurrency Loans in any such Notice of Borrowing, but fails to specify the Currency thereof, it will be deemed to have specified such Loans in Dollars.

(vi) After giving effect to all Borrowings, all Conversions and all Continuations, there shall not be more than 15 Interest Periods in effect.

(c) Types of Loans. Each Borrowing and each Conversion or Continuation thereof shall consist of Loans of the same Type (and, if such Loans are Eurocurrency Loans, having the same Interest Period) made, Continued or Converted on the same day by the Lenders ratably according to their Commitment Percentages.

(d) Accounts. (i) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrowers to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(ii) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (x) the amount of each Loan, the Type thereof, the Borrowing Category applicable thereto and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (y) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrowers to each Lender hereunder and (z) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.

(iii) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to this clause (d) shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the

Borrowers to repay the Loans made to any Borrower or make payments for other obligations (including L/C Reimbursement Obligations) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(e) Notes. Any Lender may, through the Administrative Agent, request that the Loans to be made by it be evidenced by a promissory note of the Borrowers. In such event, the Borrowers shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a joint and several promissory note payable to such Lender (or its registered assigns), substantially in the form of Exhibit A (each, a “Note”), in the amount of the Commitment of such Lender, dated the Closing Date and otherwise appropriately completed.

SECTION 2.02. Letter of Credit Facility.

(a) Letters of Credit. (i) Each Issuing Lender agrees, on and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, to issue one or more letters of credit (each, a “Letter of Credit”) for the account of a Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the date ten Business Days before the Commitment Termination Date, provided, that the total L/C Exposure with respect to Letters of Credit may not at any time exceed the Letter of Credit Facility Amount.

(ii) Letters of Credit may be denominated in Dollars or any Alternate Currency, as requested in writing by the Borrower.

(iii) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the issuance of Letters of Credit shall be subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.01(a)(iii).

(iv) Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, a Borrower’s ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be revolving, and accordingly a Borrower may, during the period referred to in clause (i) above, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed.

(v) The Borrowers shall be co-obligors with respect to each Letter of Credit, and shall be jointly and severally liable for all obligations and liabilities with respect thereto in accordance with Sections 2.05 and 2.06.

(b) Terms; Issuance. (i) Each Letter of Credit shall be in a form reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Issuing Lender and have a stated expiration date that is no later than the earlier of (x) one year after its date of issuance and (y) five Business Days prior to the Commitment Termination Date; provided that a Letter of Credit with a one-year tenor may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods (which shall in no event extend beyond a date five Business Days prior to the Commitment Termination Date (except that one or more Letters of Credit may expire up to one year after the Commitment Termination Date if each such Letter of Credit has been cash collateralized or otherwise backstopped on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Borrowers, the relevant Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent)).

(ii) An Issuing Lender shall be under no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if (A) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator

shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Lender from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any law applicable to such Issuing Lender or any directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Lender shall prohibit, or direct that such Issuing Lender refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuing Lender with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Lender is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon such Issuing Lender any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date (for which such Issuing Lender is not otherwise compensated hereunder), or (B) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate any laws binding upon such Issuing Lender.

(c) Issuance Procedure. (i) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued upon notice, given not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the third Business Day prior to the proposed issuance date of such Letter of Credit, by the requesting Borrower to the relevant Issuing Lender (or such shorter notice as shall be acceptable to such Issuing Lender), with a copy to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall give to each Lender prompt notice thereof by telecopier or email. Each such notice from the requesting Borrower (a “Notice of Issuance”) shall be by telecopier or email, confirmed promptly by hard copy, specifying therein the Issuing Lender and the requested date of issuance (which shall be a Business Day) of such Letter of Credit, its face amount and expiration date and the name and address of the beneficiary thereof, and shall attach the proposed form thereof (or such other information as shall be necessary to prepare such Letter of Credit). If requested by the applicable Issuing Lender, the requesting Borrower shall supply such application and agreement for letter of credit, in the form reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Issuing Lender, as the relevant Issuing Lender may require in connection with such requested Letter of Credit (“L/C Related Documents”) along with such other information reasonably related to the requested Letter of Credit.

(ii) If the proposed Letter of Credit complies with the requirements of this Section 2.02, such Issuing Lender will, unless the Issuing Lender has received written notice from the Administrative Agent, that one or more of the applicable conditions set forth in Article IV shall not be satisfied, make such Letter of Credit available to the requesting Borrower as agreed with the requesting Borrower in connection with such issuance. In the event and to the extent that the provisions of any L/C Related Documents shall conflict with this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern.

(iii) Each Issuing Lender shall furnish (A) upon request of the Administrative Agent, copies of the Letters of Credit issued by it hereunder, and (B) to the Administrative Agent on the first Business Day of each fiscal quarter a written report setting forth the Letters of Credit issued in Alternate Currencies, solely for purposes of determining the Dollar Equivalent thereof.

(d) Reimbursement; Syndicate Participation. (i) Automatically upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to have automatically and

unconditionally acquired a participation therein to the extent of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage on the terms provided in this clause (d) without any further action.

(ii) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of drawing under such Letter of Credit, the relevant Issuing Lender shall notify the requesting Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. Not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the second Business Day following any L/C Payment by an Issuing Lender (the “Honor Date”), the Borrowers jointly and severally agree to reimburse such Issuing Lender directly in an amount equal to the amount of such L/C Payment.

(iii) If the Borrowers fail to so reimburse such Issuing Lender by such date, or if any amounts reimbursed by any Borrower are required to be returned or disgorged for any reason, such Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the Honor Date, the unreimbursed amount of such L/C Payment (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Lender’s pro rata share thereof. In such event, such Borrower shall be irrevocably deemed to have requested a Borrowing of ABR Loans to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount (without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.01(b)); provided that, notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary in this Section 2.02, no such Borrowing of ABR Loans shall be permitted unless the Debt to Equity Ratio shall be less than or equal to [**] to 1.00 after giving pro forma effect to such Borrowing and the conditions specified in clauses (a) and (b) of Section 4.02 have been satisfied on or as of the date of such Borrowing. Any notice given by an Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.02(d)(iii) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided, that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

(iv) Subject to the proviso in Section 2.02(d)(iii), each Lender (including any Lender acting as an Issuing Lender) unconditionally agrees upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.02(d)(iii) to make funds available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Issuing Lender at the Administrative Agent’s Account in an amount equal to its Commitment Percentage of the unpaid L/C Reimbursement Obligation not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made an ABR Loan to the Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the relevant Issuing Lender.

(v) The Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay interest on the unreimbursed amount of each L/C Reimbursement Obligation to the relevant Issuing Lender, for each day from the date of the relevant L/C Payment until such L/C Reimbursement Obligation is reimbursed or refinanced in full as herein provided, at the rate provided in Section 3.02(b)(ii).

(vi) Subject to the proviso in Section 2.02(d)(iii), each Lender’s obligation to make the payments provided in clause (iv) above to reimburse an Issuing Lender for any

L/C Payment shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by (A) any setoff or counterclaim which such Lender may have against an Issuing Lender, any Borrower or any other Person, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or any reduction or termination of the Commitments or any of them, (C) any of the matters referred to in clause (e) below or (D) any other circumstance whatsoever.

(vii) If any Lender fails timely to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of an Issuing Lender any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.02, such Issuing Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to such Issuing Lender at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect (without duplication of amounts paid by any Borrower under clause (v) above). A certificate of such Issuing Lender submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (vii) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(viii) At any time after an Issuing Lender has made an L/C Payment and has received funds from a Lender in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.02, if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of such Issuing Lender any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from a Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of cash collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to such Lender its pro rata share thereof in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent.

(e) Borrowers Obligations Unconditional. The joint and several obligation of the Borrowers to reimburse each Issuing Lender for each L/C Payment under each Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances whatsoever, including the following:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;

(ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, set-off, defense or other right that the Borrower may have at any time against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary may be acting), such Issuing Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto; or

(iii) any sight draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to obtain an L/C Payment under such Letter of Credit; or

(iv) any payment by such Issuing Lender under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a sight draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or any payment made by such Issuing Lender under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar law.

(f) Issuing Lender Rights. Each Lender and each Borrower agrees that, in making any L/C Payment under a Letter of Credit, the relevant Issuing Lender shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificate and other document expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering the same. None of the Issuing Lenders, the Administrative Agent, any of the respective Related Parties, nor any correspondents, participants or assignees of the Issuing Lender shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Majority Lenders, as applicable, (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct, or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or L/C Related Document. None of the Issuing Lenders, the Administrative Agent, any of the respective Related Parties, nor any correspondents, participants or assignees of the Issuing Lender, shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in Section 2.02(e); provided that anything therein or elsewhere in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrowers may have a claim against an Issuing Lender, and such Issuing Lender may be liable to the Borrowers, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive) damages suffered by the Borrowers which were directly caused by such Issuing Lender’s bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence as determined by a final and nonappealable ruling of a court of competent jurisdiction. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each Issuing Lender may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary.

(g) Applicability of ISP98. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by an Issuing Lender and the requesting Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued, the “International Standby Practices 1998” published by the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice (or such later version thereof as may be in effect at the time of issuance) shall apply to each Letter of Credit.

SECTION 2.03. Fees.

(a) Agency Fee. The Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the Administrative Agent’s own account, an administrative agency fee at the times and in the amounts as agreed in writing by KCMH and the Administrative Agent.

(b) Facility Fee. The Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, a facility fee on the amount of the Commitment of such Lender for each day during the period from the date hereof until the

(i) The Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the pro rata account of the Lenders based on their respective Commitment Percentages, a commission on the average daily undrawn amount of each outstanding Letter of Credit at a rate equal to the Applicable Margin then in effect for Eurocurrency Loans (minus the amount of the fronting fee referred to below), payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the Commitment Termination Date, commencing on the first such date after the date hereof.

(ii) The Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay to each Issuing Lender, for the sole account of such Issuing Lender, (x) a fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender, payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December and on the Commitment Termination Date, in an amount equal to [**]% per annum of the average daily available amount of such Letter of Credit and (y) such customary fees and charges in connection with the issuance or administration of each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender as may be agreed in writing between KCMH and such Issuing Lender from time to time. The Issuing Lender will notify the Borrowers of any and all such fees and charges payable under this Section.

(d) Other Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arranger for their own respective accounts such other fees in the amounts and at the times as may be agreed in writing between KCMH and the Administrative Agent and/or the Lead Arranger.

Once terminated or reduced, the Commitments may not be reinstated.

SECTION 2.05. Concerning Joint and Several Liability of the Borrowers.

(a) Each of the Borrowers is accepting joint and several liability hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in consideration of the financial accommodations to be provided by the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each of the Borrowers and in consideration of the undertakings of each other Borrower to accept joint and several liability for the Obligations.

(b) Each of the Borrowers, jointly and severally, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a primary obligor and co-debtor, joint and several liability with each other Borrower, with respect to the payment and performance of all of the Obligations (including, without limitation, any Obligations arising under this Section 2.05), it being the intention of the parties hereto that all the Obligations shall be the joint and several obligations of each of the Borrowers without preferences or distinction among them.

(c) If and to the extent that any of the Borrowers shall fail to make any payment with respect to any of the Obligations as and when due or to perform any of the Obligations in accordance with the terms thereof, then, in each such event, the other Borrowers will make such payment with respect to, or perform, such Obligation.

(d) The Obligations of each of the Borrowers under the provisions of this Section 2.05 constitute the full recourse Obligations of each of the Borrowers enforceable against each such Person to the full extent of its properties and assets, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any other circumstance whatsoever.

(e) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, each Borrower hereby waives promptness, diligence, presentment, demand, protest, notice of acceptance of its joint and several liability, notice of any and all advances of the Loans made under this Agreement and any promissory note issued hereunder, notice of occurrence of any Default or Event of Default (except to the extent notice is expressly required to be given pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents), or of any demand for any payment under this Agreement, notice of any action at any time taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders under or in respect of any of the Obligations hereunder, any requirement of diligence and, generally, all demands, notices and other formalities of every kind in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Borrower hereby waives all defenses which may be available by virtue of any valuation, stay, moratorium law or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, any right to require the marshaling of assets of the Borrowers and any other entity or Person primarily or secondarily liable with respect to any of the Obligations, and all surety ship defenses generally. Each Borrower hereby assents to, and waives notice of, any extension or postponement of the time for the payment, or place or manner for payment, compromise, refinancing, consolidation or renewals of any of the Obligations hereunder, the acceptance of any partial payment thereon, any waiver, consent or other action or acquiescence by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders at any time or times in respect of any default by any Borrower in the performance or satisfaction of any term, covenant, condition or provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, any and all other indulgences whatsoever by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in respect of any of the Obligations hereunder, and the taking, addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, at any time or times, of any security for any of such Obligations or the addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, of any

Borrower or any other entity or Person primarily or secondarily liable for any Obligation. Each Borrower further agrees that its Obligations shall not be released or discharged, in whole or in part, or otherwise affected by the adequacy of any rights which the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have against any collateral security, guaranty or other means of obtaining repayment of any of the Obligations, the impairment of any collateral security securing or guaranty supporting the Obligations, including, without limitation, the failure to protect or preserve any rights which any Administrative Agent or any Lender may have in such collateral security or guaranty or the substitution, exchange, surrender, release, loss or destruction of any such collateral security, any other act or omission which might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Borrower, or otherwise operate as a release or discharge of such Borrower, all of which may be done without notice to such Borrower. If for any reason any other Borrower has no legal existence or is under no legal obligation to discharge any of the Obligations, or if any of the Obligations have become irrecoverable from any other Borrower by reason of such other Borrower’s insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization or by other operation of law or for any reason, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party shall nevertheless be binding on such Borrower to the same extent as if such Borrower at all times had been the sole obligor on such Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Borrower assents to any other action or delay in acting or failure to act on the part of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, including, without limitation, any failure strictly or diligently to assert any right or to pursue any remedy or to comply fully with applicable laws or regulations thereunder which might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.05, afford grounds for terminating, discharging or relieving such Borrower, in whole or in part, from any of its obligations under this Section 2.05, it being the intention of each Borrower that, so long as any of the Obligations hereunder remain unsatisfied, the obligations of such Borrower under this Section 2.05 shall not be discharged except by performance and then only to the extent of such performance. The Obligations of each Borrower under this Section 2.05 shall not be diminished or rendered unenforceable by any winding up, reorganization, arrangement, liquidation, reconstruction or similar proceeding with respect to any reconstruction or similar proceeding with respect to any other Borrower, or any of the Lenders. The joint and several liability of the Borrowers hereunder shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any absorption, merger, amalgamation or any other change whatsoever in the name, ownership, membership, constitution or place of formation of any Borrower or the Lenders. Each of the Borrowers acknowledges and confirms that it has itself established its own adequate means of obtaining from the other Borrowers on a continuing basis all information desired by such Borrower concerning the financial condition of the other Borrowers and that each such Borrower will look to the other Borrowers and not to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in order for such Borrower to keep adequately informed of changes in the other Borrowers’ respective financial conditions.

(f) The provisions of this Section 2.05 are made for the benefit of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and may be enforced by it or them from time to time against any or all of the Borrowers as often as occasion therefor may arise and without requirement on the part of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or such successor or assign first to marshal any of its or their claims or to exercise any of its or their rights against the other Borrowers or to exhaust any remedies available to it or them against any other Borrower or to resort to any other source or means of obtaining payment of any of the Obligations hereunder or to elect any other remedy. The provisions of this Section 2.05 shall

remain in effect until all of the Obligations shall have been paid in full or otherwise fully satisfied and all Commitments terminated. If at any time, any payment, or any part thereof made in respect of any of the Obligations, is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by any Lender or the Administrative Agent upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any of the Borrowers, or otherwise, the provisions of this Section 2.05 will forthwith be reinstated in effect, as though such payment had not been made.

(g) Each of the Borrowers hereby agrees that it will not enforce any of its rights of reimbursement, contribution, subrogation or the like against any other Borrower with respect to any liability incurred by it hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, any payments made by it to any of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent with respect to any of the Obligations or any collateral security therefor until such time as all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash and all Commitments terminated. Any claim which any Borrower may have against any other Borrower with respect to any payments to the Lenders or the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Documents are hereby expressly made subordinate and junior in right of payment, without limitation as to any increases in the Obligations arising hereunder or thereunder, to the prior payment in full of the Obligations and, in the event of any insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar proceeding under the laws of any jurisdiction relating to any Borrower, its debts or its assets, whether voluntary or involuntary, all such Obligations shall be paid in full before any payment or distribution of any character, whether in cash, securities or other property, shall be made to any other Borrower therefor.

(h) Each of the Borrowers hereby agrees that the payment of any amounts due with respect to the indebtedness owing by any Borrower to any other Borrower is hereby subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of the Obligations and the termination of the all Commitments. Each Borrower hereby agrees that after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, unless the Administrative Agent otherwise agrees, such Borrower will not demand, sue for or otherwise attempt to collect any indebtedness of any other Borrower owing to such Borrower until the Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash. If, notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, such Borrower shall collect, enforce or receive any amounts in respect of such indebtedness, such amounts shall be collected, enforced and received by such Borrower as trustee for the Administrative Agent on account of the Obligations and shall be paid promptly after receipt to the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 2.06. Contribution.

(a) To the extent that any Borrower shall make a payment under Section 2.05 of all or any of the Obligations (other than Loans made to that Borrower for which it is primarily liable) (a “Support Payment”) that, taking into account all other Support Payments then previously or concurrently made by any other Borrower, exceeds the amount that such Borrower would otherwise have paid if each Borrower had paid the aggregate Obligations satisfied by such Support Payment in the same portion that such Borrower’s Allocable Amount (as determined immediately prior to such Support Payment) bore to the aggregate Allocable Amounts of each of the Borrowers as determined immediately prior to the making of such Support Payment, then, following indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Obligations and termination of the

Commitments, such Borrower shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and be reimbursed by, the other Borrowers for the net amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such Support Payment.

(b) As of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of any Borrower shall be equal to the maximum amount of the claim that could then be recovered from such Borrower under Section 2.06(a) without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law.

(c) This Section 2.06 is intended only to define the relative rights of Borrowers and nothing set forth in this Section 2.06 is intended or shall impair the obligations of the Borrowers, jointly and severally, to pay any amounts as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including Section 2.05. Nothing contained in this Section 2.06 shall limit the liability of any Borrower to pay the Loans or L/C Reimbursement Obligations made directly or indirectly to or for the benefit of that Borrower and accrued interest, fees and expenses with respect thereto for which such Borrower shall be primarily liable.

(d) The parties hereto acknowledge that the rights of contribution and indemnification of any Borrower under this Section 2.06 shall constitute assets of such Borrower.

(e) The rights of an indemnifying Borrower against the other Borrowers under this Section 2.06 shall be exercisable upon the full and indefeasible payment of the Obligations and the termination of Commitments.

ARTICLE III

PAYMENTS

SECTION 3.01. Repayment. Each Borrower agrees to repay the full principal amount of each Loan by each Lender, and each such Loan shall mature, on the Commitment Termination Date.

SECTION 3.02. Interest.

(a) Ordinary Interest. The Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan, from the date of such Loan until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum:

(i) ABR Loans. While such Loan is an ABR Loan, a rate per annum equal to the ABR in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Margin as in effect from time to time, interest under this clause (i) to be payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December and on the date such ABR Loan shall be Converted and on the date of each payment of principal thereof.

(ii) Eurocurrency Loans. While such Loan is a Eurocurrency Loan, a rate per annum for each Interest Period for such Loan equal to the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin as in effect from time to time, interest under this clause (ii) to be payable on the last day of such Interest Period and, if such Interest Period has a duration of more than three months, on the date three months after the first day of such Interest Period, and on each date on which such Eurocurrency Loan shall be Continued or Converted and on the date of each payment of principal thereof.

(b) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowers jointly and severally shall pay interest on:

(i) any principal of any Loan that is not paid when due (whether at scheduled maturity or otherwise), payable on demand and in any event on the date such amount shall be paid, at a rate per annum equal at all times to two percent (2%) per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on such Loan pursuant to said Section 3.02(a)(i) or (a)(ii), as applicable; and

(ii) any interest, fee or other amount thereof (other than any principal) that is not paid when due, from the due date thereof until such amount shall be paid, payable on demand and in any event on the date such amount shall be paid in full, at a rate per annum equal at all times to two percent (2%) per annum above the rate per annum then required to be paid on ABR Loans.

SECTION 3.03. Eurocurrency Reserves. The Borrowers jointly and severally shall pay to each Lender, as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency Liabilities”), additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurocurrency Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided KCMH shall have received at least 10 days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice 10 days prior to the relevant interest payment date, such additional interest shall be due and payable 10 days from receipt of such notice.

SECTION 3.04. Interest Rate Determinations.

(a) Notice of Interest Rates. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to KCMH and the Lenders of the applicable interest rates determined by the Administrative Agent.

(b) Eurocurrency Rate Inadequate. If, with respect to any Eurocurrency Loan, (x) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurocurrency Rate (including because the Screen Page is not available or published on a current basis), for such Interest Period or (y) the Majority Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that the Eurocurrency Rate for any Interest Period for such Loans will not fairly reflect the cost to

such Majority Lenders of making, funding or maintaining their respective Eurocurrency Loans for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall so notify KCMH and the Lenders, whereupon:

(i) any Notice of Borrowing requesting a Borrowing comprised of Eurocurrency Loans shall be ineffective;

(ii) each Eurocurrency Loan will automatically, on the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor, be Converted into an ABR Loan; and

(iii) the obligation of the Lenders to make or Continue, or to Convert Loans into, Eurocurrency Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify KCMH and such Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

(c) Alternative Rate of Interest. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the circumstances set forth in clause (b)(x) have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (ii) the circumstances set forth in clause (b)(x) have not arisen but either (w) the supervisor for the administrator of the Screen Page has made a public statement that the administrator of the Screen Page is insolvent (and there is no successor administrator that will continue publication of the Screen Page), (x) the administrator of the Screen Page has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the Screen Page will permanently or indefinitely cease to be published by it (and there is no successor administrator that will continue publication of the Screen Page), (y) the supervisor for the administrator of the Screen Page has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the Screen Page will permanently or indefinitely cease to be published or (z) the supervisor for the administrator of the Screen Page or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the Screen Page may no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the Eurocurrency Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable (but for the avoidance of doubt, such related changes shall not include a reduction of the Applicable Margin); provided that, if such alternate rate of interest as so determined would be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 9.01, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date notice of such alternate rate of interest is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Majority Lenders stating that such Majority Lenders object to such amendment. Until an alternate rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with this clause (c) (but, in the case of the circumstances described in clause (ii)(w), clause (ii)(x) or clause (ii)(y) of the first sentence of this Section 3.04(c), only to the extent the Screen Page for such Interest Period is not available or published at such time on a current basis), (x) any Notice of Borrowing that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing

shall be ineffective and (y) if any Notice of Borrowing requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing.

(d) Certain Mandatory Conversions.

(i) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, (x) each Eurocurrency Loan will automatically, on the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor, be Converted into an ABR Loan and (y) the obligation of the Lenders to make or Continue, or to Convert Loans into, Eurocurrency Loans shall be suspended.

(ii) If this Agreement shall require that any Eurocurrency Loan be Converted to an ABR Loan and such Eurocurrency Loan is denominated in an Alternate Currency, the Borrowers jointly and severally shall on the last day of the current Interest Period pay or prepay the full amount of such Eurocurrency Loan (provided, that the foregoing shall not prevent the Borrower from borrowing additional Loans to the extent otherwise permitted hereunder).

SECTION 3.05. Voluntary Conversion or Continuation of Loans.

(a) Conversions. The requesting Borrower may on any Business Day, upon written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) given to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the third Business Day (or, with respect to Interest Periods other than one, two, three or six months, fourth Business Day) prior to the date of the proposed Conversion, Convert all or any portion of the outstanding Loans of one Type comprising part of the same Borrowing into Loans of the other Type; provided that in the case of any such Conversion of a Eurocurrency Loan into an ABR Loan on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period therefor, the Borrowers jointly and severally shall promptly reimburse the Lenders the amounts provided in Section 3.12 relating to such prepayment. Each such notice of a Conversion shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (i) the date of such Conversion, (ii) the Loans to be Converted, and (z) if such Conversion is into Eurocurrency Loans, the duration of the initial Interest Period for each such Loan. Each notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrowers.

(b) Continuations. The requesting Borrower may, on any Business Day, upon written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) given to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the third Business Day (or, with respect to Interest Periods other than one, two, three or six months, fourth Business Day) prior to the date of the proposed Continuation, Continue all or any portion of the outstanding Eurocurrency Loans comprising part of the same Borrowing for one or more Interest Periods. Each such notice of a Continuation shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (i) the date of such Continuation, (ii) the Eurocurrency Loans to be Continued and (y) the duration of the next Interest Period for the Eurocurrency Loans subject to such Continuation. Each notice of Continuation shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrowers.

SECTION 3.06. Prepayments of Loans.

(a) Optional Prepayment. The requesting Borrower may, on notice (given not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the Business Day of the proposed prepayment of Loans, with respect to ABR Loans, and on the third Business Day prior to the date of prepayment with respect to Eurocurrency Loans) stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount (stated in Dollars) of the prepayment, and if such notice is given the Borrowers jointly and severally shall, prepay the outstanding principal amounts of the Loans comprising part of the same Borrowing in whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided, however, that (i) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount not less than $5,000,000 or integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or, in the case of Loans denominated in an Alternate Currency, the Alternate Currency Equivalent thereof in such Alternate Currency) and (ii) in the case of any such prepayment of a Eurocurrency Loan on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period therefor, the Borrowers jointly and severally shall reimburse the Lenders the amounts provided in Section 3.12 relating to such prepayment.

(b) Alternate Currency Revaluation. If at any time by reason of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates the Total Credit Exposure exceeds 105% of the then aggregate amount of the Commitments, and the Majority Lenders so request, the Administrative Agent shall use all reasonable efforts to give prompt written notice thereof to KCMH, specifying the amount to be prepaid under this clause (b), and the Borrowers jointly and severally shall prepay Loans or, if no Loans are outstanding, provide cash collateral for or otherwise backstop outstanding Letters of Credit on terms reasonably satisfactory to KCMH, the Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent, in such aggregate amount as may be required to cause the Total Credit Exposure (treating such cash collateralization or other backstopping for purposes hereof as a reduction in such Total Credit Exposure) to be equal to or less than the aggregate amount of the Commitments, such payments or other measures to be made within 10 Business Days of demand or, in the case of prepayment of Eurocurrency Loans, on the date that is the earlier of (i) the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor and (ii) the last Business Day of the first full calendar month after such revaluation, provided that any such prepayment shall be accompanied by any amounts payable under Section 3.12. The determinations of the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers in the absence of manifest error.

SECTION 3.07. Payments; Computations; Etc.

(a) Pro Rata Payments. The Loans comprising each Borrowing shall be made pro rata among the Lenders based on their respective Commitment Percentages. Except as otherwise provided hereunder, all payments of principal of and interest on the Loans shall be made for the pro rata account of the Lenders based on the respective outstanding principal amounts thereof, and all payments of commitment fees and letter of credit commission shall be made for the pro rata account of the Lenders based on their respective Commitment Percentages.

(b) Lenders’ Obligations Several. The obligations of the Lenders under this Agreement are several and the failure of any Lender to make any Loan or any payment required to be made by it hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder, nor shall any Lender be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make any Loan required to be made by such other Lender.

(c) Currencies. All payments by the Borrower of or in respect of principal of and interest on and other amounts directly relating to any Loan that are denominated in an Alternate Currency shall be made in such Alternate Currency. All payments of principal and interest on any Loan denominated in Dollars, all payments in respect of any Letter of Credit, and all payments of fees payable pursuant to Section 2.03(c), commitment fees and agency fees hereunder and all other payments by any Borrower provided for in this Agreement, except as provided in the preceding sentence, shall be made in Dollars.

(d) Payments.

(i) The Borrowers shall make each payment hereunder and under each other Loan Document without set-off, counterclaim or deduction of any kind to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Account in the Principal Financial Center for the relevant Currency not later than 11:00 a.m. Local Time on the due date of such payment (each such payment made after such time on such date to be deemed to have been made on the next Business Day).

(ii) The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest ratably to the Lenders as provided in Section 3.07(a) for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Assumption and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 9.06(c), from and after the assignment date set forth therein, the Administrative Agent shall remit all payments hereunder and under the Notes in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Assumption shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such assignment date directly between themselves.

(e) Computations. All computations of interest based on the ABR (except any Federal Funds Rate component thereof) shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest is payable. All computations of interest based on the Eurocurrency Rate or the Federal Funds Rate and of commitment fee shall be made by the Administrative Agent, and any computations of amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.03, shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days, for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or other amount is payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(f) Payment Dates. Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes would be due on a day other than a Business Day, such due date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and any such extension of such due date shall in such case be included in the computation of interest; provided, that if such extension would cause payment of principal

or interest in respect of Eurocurrency Loans to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

(g) Presumption by Administrative Agent.

(i) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed time of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made its share available at such time in accordance with Section 2.01(b) and may (but shall not be obligated), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to a Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then (A) the applicable Lender, on one hand, and (B) the Borrowers on a joint and several basis on the other hand, severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to a Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (x) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (y) in the case of a payment to be made by a Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If a Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to such Borrower the amount of such interest paid by such Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by a Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim such Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

(ii) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from KCMH prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may (but shall not be obligated), in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrowers have not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation (if such Loan is denominated in Dollars) or at the overnight London Interbank offered rate for the relevant Currency (if such Loan is denominated in an Alternate Currency).

SECTION 3.08. Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender’s receiving

payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them, provided, that:

(i) if any such participation is purchased and all or any portion of the related payment is recovered, such participation shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and

(ii) the provisions of this subsection shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans other than to a Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this subsection shall apply).

The Borrowers consent to the foregoing and agree, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrowers, jointly and severally, rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrowers in the amount of such participation.

SECTION 3.09. Increased Costs.

(a) Eurocurrency Costs. If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement contemplated by Section 3.03) or the Issuing Lender; or

(ii) impose on any Lender or the Issuing Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurocurrency Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any Eurocurrency Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender or the Issuing Lender of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the Issuing Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, from time to time upon request of such Lender or the Issuing Lender, the Borrowers jointly and severally will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, for such additional costs

incurred or reduction suffered. This Section 3.09 shall not apply to Excluded Taxes or any matters covered by Section 3.11 relating to Taxes.

(b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender or the Issuing Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or the Issuing Lender or any lending office of such Lender or the Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letter of Credit issued by the Issuing Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time upon request of such Lender or the Issuing Lender, the Borrowers jointly and severally will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company for such reduction.

(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of any Lender or the Issuing Lender setting forth the amount or amounts and a reasonable basis for the determination thereof necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in clauses (a) or (b) of this Section 3.09 and delivered to KCMH shall be conclusive on all Borrowers absent manifest error. The Borrowers jointly and severally shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 Business Days after receipt thereof.

(d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 3.09 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided, that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, notifies KCMH of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

SECTION 3.10. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its Eurocurrency Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make or continue Eurocurrency Loans or to fund or otherwise maintain Eurocurrency Loans hereunder, (a) the obligation of such Lender to make or Continue, or to Convert Loans into, Eurocurrency Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify KCMH and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist and (b) each Eurocurrency Loan of such Lender shall convert into an

ABR Loan at the end of the then current Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Loan, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Loans.

SECTION 3.11. Taxes.

(a) All payments on account of the principal of and interest on the Loans and the Notes, fees and all other amounts whatsoever payable by the Borrowers under the Loan Documents shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or liability for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law, decree or regulation.

(b) In the event that any Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall be required by applicable law, decree or regulation to deduct or withhold any Tax from any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on, under or in respect of this Agreement, the Loans or any Loan Document, the Borrowers jointly and severally shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, decree or regulation and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the Borrowers jointly and severally shall promptly pay such recipient such additional amounts as may be required, after the deduction or withholding of Indemnified Taxes, to enable such recipient to receive from the Borrowers on the due date thereof an amount equal to the full amount stated to be payable to such recipient.

(c) The Borrowers jointly and severally shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender (including each Issuing Lender) against, and reimburse them upon demand for, any incremental Taxes, interest or penalties, that they may incur at any time arising out of or in connection with any such failure of the Borrowers to make any payment of Indemnified Taxes when due.

(d) KCMH shall furnish to the Administrative Agent original or certified copies of official tax receipts in respect of each payment of Indemnified Taxes required under this Section 3.11, as soon as practicable after the date such payment is made, and the Borrowers shall promptly furnish to the Administrative Agent at its request or at the request of any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) to KCMH any other information, documents and receipts that the Administrative Agent or such Lender may reasonably require to establish that full and timely payment has been made of all Indemnified Taxes required to be paid under this Section 3.11.

(e)

(i) Each Lender or Participant that is not a “U.S. Person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to KCMH and the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased) two copies of either U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, Form W-8ECI, Form W-8 IMY, Form W-8 EXP, or, in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, a statement

substantially in the form of Exhibit E-1, Exhibit E-2, Exhibit E-3 or Exhibit E-4, as applicable, and a Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Lender claiming complete exemption from, or a reduced rate of, U.S. federal withholding tax on all payments by the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Such forms shall be delivered by each Non-U.S. Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of any Participant, on or before the date such Participant purchases the related participation).

(ii) Each Lender that is a “U.S. Person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to KCMH and the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant of a Non-U.S. Lender, to such Non-U.S. Lender) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of KCMH or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender or Participant, as applicable, is exempt from U.S. Federal backup withholding tax.

(f) Each Lender shall deliver to any Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by applicable law and at such time or times reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law and such additional documentation reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for such Borrower or the Administrative Agent to comply with any obligations of such Borrower of the Administrative Agent under FATCA or any similar regime arising as a result of the transactions contemplated under any Loan Document.

In addition, each Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon the written request of KCMH after the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Non-U.S. Lender. Each Non-U.S. Lender shall promptly notify KCMH at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to KCMH (or any other form of certification adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose). Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph, a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph that such Non-U.S. Lender is not legally able to deliver.

(g) A Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of non-U.S. withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which a Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to KCMH (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by KCMH, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate, provided that such Lender is legally entitled to complete, execute and deliver such documentation and in such Lender’s judgment such completion, execution or submission would not materially prejudice the legal position of such Lender.

(h) If the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund or credit (in lieu of such refund) of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrowers or with respect to which a Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.11, it shall pay to such Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Borrower under this Section 3.11 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that each Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Borrower to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender in the event the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This subsection shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender to make available its tax returns or its books or records (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to any Borrower or any other Person.

(i) If pursuant to this Section 3.11 a Borrower is required to pay to or for the account of any Lender any additional amounts, then such Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts to change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office if, in the sole and absolute judgment of such Lender, such change (i) would eliminate or reduce any such excess additional amounts and (ii) would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

SECTION 3.12. Break Funding Payments. The Borrowers jointly and severally agree to indemnify each Lender and to hold each Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender which is in the nature of funding breakage costs or costs of liquidation or redeployment of deposits or other funds and any other related expense (but excluding loss of margin or other loss of anticipated profit), which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by any Borrower in making any Borrowing of Eurocurrency Loans after a Borrower has given a Notice of Borrowing requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement (including as a result of any failure to fulfill, on or before the date specified in such Notice of Borrowing, the applicable conditions set forth in Article IV), (b) default by any Borrower in making any prepayment of any Eurocurrency Loan when due after such Borrower has given notice thereof in accordance with this Agreement, (c) the making by any Borrower of a prepayment of any Eurocurrency Loan on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto, (d) default by any Borrower in payment when due of the principal of or interest on any Eurocurrency Loan, (e) the Conversion or Continuation of any Eurocurrency Loan on a day other than on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto, and (f) any assignment such Lender is required to make pursuant to Section 3.13(b) if such Lender holds Eurocurrency Loans at the time of such assignment. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts and a reasonable basis for the determination thereof that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section and delivered to KCMH shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers jointly and severally shall pay to such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

SECTION 3.13. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.09, or requires any Borrower to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.11, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, if, in the sole and absolute judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.09 or 3.11, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender.

(b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.09, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.11, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, or if any Lender has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination that, pursuant to the terms of Section 9.01, requires the consent of all of the Lenders or all of the Lenders affected (and such Lender is an affected Lender) and with respect to which the Majority Lenders shall have granted their consent, then such Borrower may, at the Borrowers’ joint and several sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 9.06), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

(i) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on and as of the date of such notice and the date of such assignment;

(ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.12) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

(iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.09 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.11, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and

(iv) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws.

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 a Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. A Lender so replaced shall not be required to pay the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 9.06(b).

SECTION 3.14. Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

(i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Majority Lenders.

(ii) Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VII or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.03 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lender hereunder; third, to cash collateralize the Issuing Lenders’ L/C Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender; fourth, as any Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and KCMH, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) cash collateralize the Issuing Lender’s future L/C Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or the Issuing Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to any Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by such Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Payments in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Payments owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Payments owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in L/C Reimbursement Obligations are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their Commitments without giving effect to Section 3.14(a)(iv). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 3.14(a)(ii) shall be deemed

paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) Certain Fees. Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive the facility fee pursuant to Section 2.03(b) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to extent allocable to the sum of (1) the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans funded by it, and (2) its Commitment Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided cash collateral. Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive letter of credit fees pursuant to Section 2.03(c) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Commitment Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided cash collateral pursuant to the terms hereof. With respect to any facility fee or letter of credit fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section 3.14(a)(iii), the Borrowers jointly and severally shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letters of Credit that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to the Issuing Lender the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to the Issuing Lender’s L/C Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.

(iv) Reallocation of Participations to Reduce L/C Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letters of Credit shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that (x), if requested by the applicable Issuing Lender, the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrowers shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate of the Total Credit Exposure allocable to any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment. No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation

(v) Cash Collateral. If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall jointly and severally, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, promptly cash collateralize the Issuing Lenders’ L/C Exposure.

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If KCMH, the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth

therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Commitment Percentages (without giving effect to Section 3.14(a)(iv)), whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(c) New Letters of Credit. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Issuing Lender shall not be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is reasonably satisfied that it will have no L/C Exposure after giving effect thereto.

So long as any principal of or interest on any Loan or any other amount or obligation under the Loan Documents (other than contingent indemnity obligations not then due) shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Lender shall have any Commitment or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding hereunder (unless such Letter of Credit has been cash collateralized or otherwise backstopped on terms reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Issuing Lender), KCMH covenants and agrees that, unless the Majority Lenders shall otherwise consent in writing:

(a) Reporting Requirements. KCMH will furnish to the Lenders:

(ii) within 100 days after the end of each fiscal year, KCMH’s unaudited consolidated balance sheet and related statements of income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows as of the end of and for such fiscal year, setting forth in each case in comparative form (if applicable) the figures for the previous fiscal year, certified by a Financial Officer to the effect that such financial statements present fairly in all material respects the financial condition and results of operations of KCMH and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP consistently applied, subject to the absence of (or absence of a requirement to have) footnotes;

(b) Existence; Conduct of Business. It will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its legal existence and, except to the extent that failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, the rights, licenses, permits, privileges and franchises material to the conduct of its business (including, in the case of each Broker-Dealer Subsidiary, its registration, license or qualification as a broker-dealer with the SEC and/or such other applicable domestic or foreign Governmental Authority); provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit any transaction expressly permitted under Section 6.02(c).

(c) Compliance with Laws.

any) of any Subsidiary held directly by any Borrower or any Guarantor and (ii) all evidences of Indebtedness in excess of $5,000,000 received by any Borrower or any of the Guarantors, in each case, promptly to be delivered along with applicable instruments of transfer duly executed in blank to the Administrative Agent (or its designee) as security for the obligations owed under the Loan Documents, under the Guarantee and Security Agreement.

(l) Further Assurances. Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, it will, and will cause each of the Guarantors to, from time to time give, execute, deliver, file and/or record any financing statement, notice, instrument, document, agreement or other paper that is necessary to cause the Liens created by the Guarantee and Security Agreement to be valid first priority perfected Liens on the Property purported to be covered thereby (including after-acquired Property, it being understood that, except as set forth in paragraph (j) above, there shall be no requirement to enter into or deliver security agreements or pledge agreements governed by the laws of any non-U.S. jurisdiction or otherwise take steps to perfect any security interest or Lien securing the Obligations under the laws of any non-U.S. jurisdiction), subject to no equal or prior Lien except as otherwise permitted by the Loan Documents, and promptly from time to time obtain and maintain in full force and effect, and cause each of the Guarantors to obtain and maintain in full force and effect, all licenses, consents, authorizations and approvals of, and make all filings and registrations with, any Governmental Authority necessary under the Laws of the jurisdiction of organization of such Guarantor (or any other jurisdiction in which part of the Collateral owned by it or by any Guarantor may be situated) for the making and performance by it of the Loan Documents to which it is a party. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in any Loan Document, it is hereby agreed and acknowledged that any requirement to take any action to establish perfection by control under any Loan Document is subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, and the establishment of such control by the Administrative Agent’s designee or bailee set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement shall constitute compliance with any such requirement to establish such control by the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents.

(m) Post Closing Actions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document, it will, within 60 days after the Closing Date (or such later date as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably agree) enter into an update to the existing control agreement, in a manner previously agreed between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, with respect to the Pledged Deposit Account (as defined in the Guaranty and Security Agreement), in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 8.10. Collateral Matters; Credit Bidding.

(a) Except with respect to the exercise of setoff rights in accordance with Section 9.03 or with respect to a Secured Creditor’s right to file a proof of claim in an insolvency proceeding, no Secured Creditor shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce any 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 Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Creditors in accordance with the terms thereof.

(b) The Secured Creditors hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Majority Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the Obligations

(including by accepting some or all of the Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the Obligations pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of any bankruptcy laws, including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, or (b) at any other sale, foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any applicable law; provided that to the extent the Loans are paid in full in cash, the Commitments are terminated and the Letters of Credit cash collateralized in accordance with the terms hereof, the consent of Majority Lenders shall not be required in connection with any such credit bid. In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the Obligations owed to the Secured Creditors shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid by the Administrative Agent at the direction of the Majority Lenders and, except as set forth above, with the consent of the Majority Lenders, on a ratable basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a ratable basis that shall vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount used in allocating the contingent interests) for the asset or assets so purchased (or for the equity interests or debt instruments of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are issued in connection with such purchase). In connection with any such bid, (i) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles and to assign any successful credit bid to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, (ii) each of the Secured Creditors’ ratable interests in the Obligations which were credit bid shall be deemed without any further action under this Agreement to be assigned to such vehicle or vehicles for the purpose of closing such sale, (iii) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to adopt documents providing for the governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (provided that any actions by the Administrative Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, including any disposition of the assets or equity interests thereof, shall be governed, directly or indirectly, by, and the governing documents shall provide for, control by the vote of the Majority Lenders or their permitted assignees under the terms of this Agreement or the governing documents of the applicable acquisition vehicle or vehicles, as the case may be, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on actions by the Majority Lenders contained in Section 9.01 of this Agreement), (iv) the Administrative Agent on behalf of such acquisition vehicle or vehicles shall be authorized to issue to each of the Secured Creditors, ratably on account of the relevant Obligations which were credit bid, interests, whether as equity, partnership, limited partnership interests or membership interests, in any such acquisition vehicle and/or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle, all without the need for any Secured Creditor or acquisition vehicle to take any further action, and (v) to the extent that Obligations that are assigned to an acquisition vehicle are not used to acquire Collateral for any reason (as a result of another bid being higher or better, because the amount of Obligations assigned to the acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of Obligations credit bid by the acquisition vehicle or otherwise), such Obligations shall automatically be reassigned to the Secured Creditors pro rata with their original interest in such Obligations and the equity interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of such Obligations shall automatically be cancelled, without the need for any Secured Creditor or any acquisition vehicle to take any further action. Notwithstanding that the ratable portion of the Obligations of each Secured Creditor are deemed assigned to the acquisition vehicle or vehicles as set forth in clause (ii)

above, each Secured Creditor shall execute such documents and provide such information regarding the Secured Creditor (and/or any designee of the Secured Creditor which will receive interests in or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection with the formation of any acquisition vehicle, the formulation or submission of any credit bid or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such credit bid.

(c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Borrowers for any reason fail to indefeasibly pay any amount required under clause (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Commitment Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided, that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender in connection with such capacity.

(d) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each party hereto agrees that it will not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any other party hereto, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof or any Letter of Credit or the use of proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(e) Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than 15 Business Days after demand therefor.

SECTION 9.05. Binding Effect, Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and each Lender and their respective successors and permitted assigns, except that no Borrower shall have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.

SECTION 9.06. Assignments and Participations.

(a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that no Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of clause (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of clause (d) of this Section or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest in accordance with clause (f) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). 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 clause (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided, that

(i) except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans 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 Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, KCMH otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed);

(ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned;

(iii) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 and the Eligible Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire; and

(iv) no assignment shall be made to a natural person.

Subject to notice to KCMH and acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to clause (c) of this Section, from and after the Assignment Date specified in each Assignment and Assumption (an “Assignment Date”), the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement 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 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 of the 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 3.09, 3.11, 3.12 and 9.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to such Assignment Date. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with clause (d) of this Section.

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at its address specified in Section 9.02 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 Commitments of, and principal amounts 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, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall 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, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, any Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or any Borrower or any of any of KCMH’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided, that such agreement or instrument 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 of Section 9.01 that affects such Participant. Subject to clause (e) of this Section, each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits and obligations of Sections 3.09, 3.11, and 3.12 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to clause (b) of this Section 9.06. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. 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 notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

(e) Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.09, 3.11 and 3.12 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant.

(f) Certain Pledges. Any Lender, without the consent of any Borrower or the Administrative Agent may at any time grant security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement or any Note to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided, that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder.

(g) Resignation as Issuing Lender after Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time MHCB assigns all of its Commitment and Loans pursuant to Section 9.06(b), MHCB may, upon 30 days’ notice to KCMH and the Lenders, resign as Issuing Lender. In the event of any such resignation as Issuing Lender, KCMH shall be entitled to appoint, from among the Lenders, a successor Issuing Lender hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by KCMH to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of MHCB as Issuing Lender. If MHCB resigns as Issuing Lender, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the Issuing Lender hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as Issuing Lender and all L/C Exposure with respect thereto. Upon the appointment of a successor Issuing Lender, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuing Lender, and (b) the successor Issuing Lender shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to MHCB to effectively assume the obligations of MHCB with respect to such Letters of Credit.

EACH BORROWER 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.

(C) WAIVER OF VENUE. EACH BORROWER IRREVOCABLY 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 ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN CLAUSE (B) ABOVE.

(D) SERVICE OF PROCESS. EACH BORROWER AGREES THAT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE EFFECTED BY MAILING A COPY THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL (OR ANY SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR FORM OF MAIL), POSTAGE PREPAID, AT ITS ADDRESS SET FORTH IN SECTION 9.02, OR AT SUCH OTHER ADDRESS OF WHICH THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT SHALL HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED IN WRITING BY KCMH.

SECTION 9.08. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 9.09. Counterparts; Effectiveness; Execution.

(a) Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

(b) Electronic Execution of Loan Documents or any Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

SECTION 9.12. Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and will be subject to customary confidentiality obligations of professional practice or will agree (which agreement may be oral or pursuant to company policy) to be bound by the terms of this Section 9.12 (or language substantially similar to this Section 9.12)), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any Self Regulatory Organization), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to the Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to any Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of KCMH or (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a non-confidential basis from a source other than KCMH or its Subsidiary.

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from KCMH or any of its Subsidiaries relating to KCMH or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by KCMH or any of its Subsidiaries. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

SECTION 9.13. No Fiduciary Relationship. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby, each Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that: (a) the credit facility provided for hereunder and any related arranging or other services in connection therewith (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) are an arm’s length commercial transaction between the Borrowers and their Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arranger, on the other hand, and each Borrower is capable of evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents (including any amendment, waiver or other modification thereof); (b) in connection with the process leading to such transaction, the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arranger, each is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the financial advisor, agent or fiduciary, for any Borrower or any of its Affiliates, equity holders, creditors or employees or any other Person; (c) neither the Administrative Agent nor the Lead Arranger has assumed or will assume an advisory, agency or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Borrower with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto, including with respect to any

amendment waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document (irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent or the Lead Arranger has advised or is currently advising any Borrower or any of its Affiliates on other matters) and neither the Administrative Agent nor the Lead Arranger has any obligation to any Borrower or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; (d) the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arranger and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrowers and their Affiliates, and neither the Administrative Agent nor the Lead Arranger has any obligation to disclose any of such interests by virtue of any advisory, agency or fiduciary relationship; and (e) the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arranger have not provided and will not provide any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) and the Borrowers have consulted their own legal, accounting, regulator and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate. Each Borrower hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that it may have against the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arranger with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty.

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 shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

SECTION 9.15. USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender hereby notifies each Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies such Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrowers and other information that will allow such Lender to identify such Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act.

SECTION 9.16. Judgment Currency. This is an international loan transaction in which the specification of Dollars or an Alternate Currency, as the case may be (the “Specified Currency”), and any payment in New York City or the country of the Specified Currency, as the case may be (the “Specified Place”), is of the essence, and the Specified Currency shall be the currency of account in all events relating to amounts denominated in such Specified Currency. The payment obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be discharged by an amount paid in another currency or in another place, whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise, to the extent that the amount so paid on conversion to the Specified Currency and transfer to the Specified Place under normal banking procedures does not yield the amount of the Specified Currency at the Specified Place due hereunder. If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in the Specified Currency into another currency (the “Second Currency”), the rate of exchange which shall be applied shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the Specified Currency with the Second Currency on the Business Day next preceding that on which such judgment is rendered. The obligation of the Borrowers in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder shall, notwithstanding the rate of exchange actually applied in rendering such judgment, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the

Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, of any sum adjudged to be due hereunder or under the Notes in the Second Currency to the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase and transfer to the Specified Place the Specified Currency with the amount of the Second Currency so adjudged to be due; and the Borrowers hereby, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, jointly and severally agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, against, and to pay the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, on demand in the Specified Currency, any difference between the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, in the Specified Currency and the amount of the Specified Currency so purchased and transferred.

SECTION 9.17. European Monetary Union. (a) Definitions. In this Section 9.17 and in each other provision of this Agreement to which reference is made in this Section 9.17 (whether expressly or impliedly), the following terms have the following respective meanings:

“EMU” shall mean economic and monetary union as contemplated in the Treaty on European Union.

“EMU Legislation” shall mean legislative measures of the European Council for the introduction of, changeover to or operation of a single or unified European currency, being in part the implementation of the third stage of EMU.

“Euro” shall mean the single currency of Participating Member States of the European Union, which shall be a Currency under this Agreement.

“Euro Unit” shall mean a currency unit of the Euro.

“National Currency Unit” shall mean a unit of any Currency (other than a Euro Unit) of a Participating Member State.

“Participating Member State” shall mean each state so described in any EMU Legislation.

“Target Operating Day” shall mean any day that is not (a) a Saturday or Sunday, (b) Christmas Day or New Year’s Day or (c) any other day on which the Trans-European Real-time Gross Settlement Express Transfer system (or any successor settlement system) is not operating (as determined by the Administrative Agent).

“Treaty on European Union” shall mean the Treaty of Rome of March 25, 1957, as amended by the Single European Act 1986 and the Maastricht Treaty (which was signed at Maastricht on February 7, 1992, and came into force on November 1, 1993), as amended from time to time.

(b) Alternative Currencies. If and to the extent that any EMU Legislation provides that an amount denominated either in the Euro or in the National Currency Unit of a Participating Member State and payable within the Participating Member State by crediting an account of the creditor can be paid by the debtor either in the Euro Unit or in that National

Currency Unit, any party to this Agreement shall be entitled to pay such amount either in the Euro Unit or in such National Currency Unit.

(c) Payments by the Administrative Agent Generally. With respect to the payment of any amount denominated in the Euro or in a National Currency Unit, the Administrative Agent shall not be liable to any Borrower or any of the Lenders in any way whatsoever for any delay, or the consequences of any delay, in the crediting to any account of any amount required by this Agreement to be paid by the Administrative Agent if the Administrative Agent shall have taken all relevant steps to achieve, on the date required by this Agreement, the payment of such amount in immediately available, freely transferable, cleared funds (in the Euro Unit or, as the case may be, in a National Currency Unit) to the account of any Borrower or any Lender, as the case may be, in the Principal Financial Center in the Participating Member State which the Borrower or, as the case may be, such Lender shall have specified for such purpose. In this paragraph (c), “all relevant steps” shall mean all such steps as may be prescribed from time to time by the regulations or operating procedures of such clearing or settlement system as the Administrative Agent may from time to time reasonably determine for the purpose of clearing or settling payments of the Euro.

(d) Determination of Eurocurrency Rate. For the purposes of determining the date on which the applicable rate for Eurocurrency Loans, as the case may be, is determined under this Agreement for any Loan denominated in the Euro (or any National Currency Unit) for any Interest Period therefor, references in this Agreement to London Banking Days shall be deemed to be references to Target Operating Days. In addition, if the Administrative Agent determines that there is no Eurocurrency Rate displayed on the Screen Page for deposits denominated in the National Currency Unit in which any Loans are denominated, the Eurocurrency Rate for such Loans shall be based upon the rate displayed on the applicable Screen Page for the offering of deposits denominated in Euro Units.

(e) Rounding. Without prejudice and in addition to any method of conversion or rounding prescribed by the EMU Legislation, each reference in this Agreement to a minimum amount (or a multiple thereof) in a National Currency Unit to be paid to or by the Administrative Agent shall be replaced by a reference to such reasonably comparable and convenient amount (or a multiple thereof) in the Euro Unit as the Administrative Agent may from time to time specify.

(f) Other Consequential Changes. Without prejudice to the respective liabilities of the Borrowers to the Lenders and the Lenders to the Borrowers under or pursuant to this Agreement, except as expressly provided in this Section 9.17, each provision of this Agreement shall be subject to such reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent may from time to time specify to be necessary or appropriate to reflect the introduction of or changeover to the Euro in Participating Member States.

SECTION 9.18. Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and

Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and

(b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.

SECTION 2. Guarantee.

2.01 The Guarantee. Each Guarantor hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to each of the Secured Creditors and their respective successors and assigns the prompt payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of:

(a) the principal of and interest on the Loans and the L/C Reimbursement Obligations and all fees, premiums, costs, expenses, indemnification payments and other amounts or obligations whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, now or hereafter from time to time owing to the Lenders or the Administrative Agent or any of them by any Obligor under any of the Loan Documents, and

in each case in accordance with the terms thereof and including all interest and expenses accrued or incurred subsequent to the commencement of any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding with respect to any Obligor, whether or not such interest or expenses are allowed as a claim in such proceeding (such obligations being herein collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Each Guarantor hereby further jointly and severally agrees that if any Obligor shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Guaranteed Obligations, such Guarantor will promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice

whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.

Each Guarantor, the Administrative Agent and each other Secured Creditor, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such Persons that this Agreement and the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder do not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law (as hereinafter defined), the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar foreign, federal or state law to the extent applicable to this Agreement and the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Administrative Agent, the other Secured Creditors and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the Guaranteed Obligations of each Guarantor at any time shall be limited to the maximum amount as will result in the obligations of such Guarantor not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. For purposes hereof, “Bankruptcy Law” means any proceeding of the type referred to in Sections 7.01(g) or (h) of the Credit Agreement or under Title 11, U.S. Code, or any similar foreign, federal or state law for the relief of debtors.

2.02 Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of each Guarantor under Section 2.01 are absolute and unconditional, joint and several, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the obligations of any Obligor under any of the Loan Documents or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, it being the intent of this Section 2.02 that the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional, joint and several, under any and all circumstances. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of such Guarantor hereunder, which shall remain absolute and unconditional as described above:

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

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

(c) the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be modified, supplemented or amended in any respect, or any right under any of the Loan Documents shall be waived or any other guarantee of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with;

(d) any Lien in favor of any Secured Creditor as security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall fail to be perfected or be released;

(e) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument relating thereto; or

(f) any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations) or any existence of or reliance on any representation by any Secured Creditor that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or discharge of, any Obligor or any other guarantor or surety.

Each Guarantor hereby expressly, unconditionally and irrevocably waive diligence, presentment, promptness, demand of payment, protest, default, acceleration and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that any Secured Creditor exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against any Obligor under any of the Loan Documents or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations.

Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives (a) any defense arising by reason of any claim or defense based upon an election of remedies by any Secured Creditor that in any manner impairs, reduces, releases or otherwise adversely affects the subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification rights of such Guarantor or other rights of such Guarantor to proceed against any of the other Obligors, any other guarantor or any other Person or any Collateral and (b) any defense based on any right of set-off or counterclaim against or in respect of the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder.

Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Loan Documents and that the waivers set forth in this Section 2 are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

2.03 Reinstatement. The obligations of each Guarantor under this Section 2 shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of any Borrower in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, and each Guarantor jointly and severally agrees that it will indemnify the Secured Creditors on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including fees of counsel) incurred by the Secured Creditors in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.

Each Guarantor jointly and severally agrees that, until the payment and satisfaction in full of all Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations not then due) and the expiration and termination of the Commitments under the Credit Agreement and the expiry, termination or cash collateralization or other back-stopping on terms reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent and KCMH of all Letters of Credit thereunder, they shall not exercise any right or remedy (whether or not arising in equity or under contract, statute or common law) arising by reason of any existence, payment, enforcement or performance by such Guarantor of its obligations under any Loan Document, whether by subrogation or otherwise, against any Obligor or any other

guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations.

2.05 Remedies. Each Guarantor jointly and severally agrees that, as between such Guarantor and the Lenders, the obligations of any Borrower under the Credit Agreement may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Article VII of the Credit Agreement (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in said Article VII) for purposes of Section 2.01 notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against any Borrower and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by any Borrower) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for purposes of Section 2.01.

2.06 Instrument for the Payment of Money. Each Guarantor acknowledges that the guarantee in this Section 2 constitutes an instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that any Secured Creditor, at its sole option, in the event of a dispute by such Guarantor in the payment of any moneys due hereunder, shall have the right to bring motion-action under New York CPLR Section 3213.

2.07 Continuing Guarantee; Assignments. The guarantee in this Section 2 is a continuing guarantee, and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the latest of (i) the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than any contingent indemnity obligations not then due), (ii) the termination or expiration of all the Commitments of the Lenders and (iii) the latest date of expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (unless cash collateralized or otherwise backstopped on terms reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent and KCMH), (b) be binding upon each Guarantor, its successors and assigns and (c) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Secured Creditors and their successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of clause (c) of the immediately preceding sentence, any Secured Creditor may assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement (including, without limitation, all or any portion of its Commitments, the Loans owing to it and the Note or Notes held by it) to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Secured Creditor herein or otherwise, in each case as and to the extent provided in Section 9.06 of the Credit Agreement.

2.08 Rights of Contribution. The Guarantors hereby agree, as between themselves, that if any Guarantor shall become an Excess Funding Guarantor (as defined below) by reason of the payment by such Guarantor of any Guaranteed Obligations, then each other Guarantor shall, upon the demand of such Excess Funding Guarantor (but subject to the next sentence), pay to such Excess Funding Guarantor an amount equal to such Guarantor’s Pro Rata Share (as defined below and determined, for this purpose, without reference to the properties, debts and liabilities of such Excess Funding Guarantor) of the Excess Payment (as defined below) in respect of such Guaranteed Obligations. The payment obligation of a Guarantor to any Excess Funding Guarantor under this Section 2.08 shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the obligations of such Guarantor to the Secured Creditor under the other provisions of this Section 2 and such Excess Funding Guarantor shall not

exercise any right or remedy with respect to such excess until payment and satisfaction in full of all of such obligations.

For purposes of this Section 2.08, (a) “Excess Funding Guarantor” means, in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations, a Guarantor that has paid an amount in excess of its Pro Rata Share of such Guaranteed Obligations, (b) ”Excess Payment” means, in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations, the amount paid by an Excess Funding Guarantor in excess of its Pro Rata Share of such Guaranteed Obligations and (c) ”Pro Rata Share” means, for any Guarantor, the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of (x) the amount by which the aggregate fair saleable value of all properties of such Guarantor (excluding any shares of stock or other equity interest of any other Guarantor) exceeds the amount of all the debts and liabilities of such Guarantor (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder and any obligations of any other Guarantor that have been Guaranteed by such Guarantor) to (y) the amount by which the aggregate fair saleable value of all properties of all of the Guarantors exceeds the amount of all the debts and liabilities (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder and under the other Loan Documents) of all of the Guarantors, determined (i) with respect to any Guarantor that is a party hereto on the date hereof, as of the date hereof, and (ii) with respect to any other Guarantor, as of the date such Guarantor becomes a Guarantor hereunder.

2.09 Payments Free and Clear of Taxes, Etc. Any and all payments made by any Guarantor under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes on the same terms and to the same extent that payments by the Borrowers are required to be made free and clear of Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes pursuant to Section 3.11 of the Credit Agreement.

2.10 Subordination. Each Guarantor hereby subordinates any and all debts, liabilities and other obligations owed to such Guarantor by each other Obligor (the “Subordinated Obligations”) to the Guaranteed Obligations to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth in this Section 2.10:

(a) Prohibited Payments, Etc. Except after the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default (including the commencement and continuation of any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law relating to any other Obligor), each Guarantor may receive regularly scheduled payments from any other Obligor on account of the Subordinated Obligations.

(b) Prior Payment of Guaranteed Obligations. After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default (including the commencement and continuation of any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law relating to any other Obligor), however, unless the Administrative Agent otherwise agrees, no Guarantor shall demand, accept or take any action to collect any payment on account of the Subordinated Obligations.

(c) Prior Payment of Guaranteed Obligations. In any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law relating to any other Obligor, each Guarantor agrees that the Secured Creditors shall be entitled to receive payment in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations before such Guarantor receives payment of any Subordinated Obligations.

(d) Turn-Over. After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default (including the commencement and continuation of any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law relating to any other Obligor), each Guarantor shall, if the Administrative Agent so requests, collect, enforce and receive payments on account of the Subordinated Obligations as trustee for the Secured Creditors and deliver such payments to the Administrative Agent on account of the Guaranteed Obligations, together with any necessary endorsements or other instruments of transfer, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of such Guarantor under the other provisions of this Agreement.

2.11 Covenants. Each Guarantor covenants and agrees that, so long as any part of the Guaranteed Obligations shall remain unpaid (other than any contingent indemnity obligations not then due), any Letter of Credit shall be outstanding (unless cash collateralized or otherwise backstopped on terms reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent and KCMH) or any Lender shall have any Commitment, such Guarantor will perform and observe, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to perform and observe, all of the terms, covenants and agreements set forth in the Loan Documents that any Borrower has agreed to cause such Guarantor or such Subsidiaries to perform or observe.

3.03 Names, Etc. The full and correct legal name, type of organization, jurisdiction of organization, organizational identification number (if applicable) and mailing address of each Obligor as of the date hereof are correctly set forth in Annex I hereto.

(all of the property described in this Section 4 being collectively referred to herein as “Collateral”) PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this Agreement shall not constitute a grant of a security interest in (a) more than 65% of the issued and outstanding Voting Shares of any non-Domestic Subsidiary (or any Domestic Subsidiary substantially all of whose assets consist of capital stock and/or indebtedness of one of more Foreign Subsidiaries), (b) motor vehicles and other assets subject to certificates of title, Letter of Credit Rights and Commercial Tort Claims, (c) any application for registration of a trademark filed with the PTO on an intent-to-use basis until such time (if any) as a statement of use or amendment to allege use is accepted by the PTO, at which time such trademark shall automatically become part of the Collateral and subject to the security interest pledged, (d) those assets over which the granting of security interests in such assets would be prohibited by applicable law, regulation, or agreements containing anti-assignment clauses not overridden by the UCC or other applicable law and (e) those assets as to which the Administrative Agent and the Borrower reasonably determine that the cost of obtaining such a security interest or perfection thereof are excessive in relation to the benefit to the Lenders of the security to be afforded thereby.

SECTION 5. Collateral Account and Deposit Account.

5.01 Collateral Account. The Administrative Agent will, if so directed by the Issuing Lender or the Majority Lenders, as applicable, cause to be established at the Administrative Agent a collateral account (the “Collateral Account”), that

The Collateral Account, and any money or other property from time to time therein, shall constitute part of the Collateral hereunder and shall not constitute payment of the Secured Obligations until applied as hereinafter provided.

5.02 Withdrawals. The balance from time to time in the Collateral Account shall be subject to withdrawal only as provided in this Section 5.02 and Section 5.03 below. The Administrative Agent shall (except as otherwise provided in the last sentence of this Section 5.02 and except after the occurrence of and during the continuation of an Event of Default) remit the collected balance standing to the credit of the Collateral Account to or upon the order of the relevant Obligor as such Obligor (through KCMH) shall from time to time instruct. At any time following the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may (and, if instructed by the Lenders as provided in the Credit Agreement, shall) in its (or their) discretion, after written notice to KCMH, apply or cause to be applied (subject to collection) the balance from time to time standing to the credit of the Collateral Account (regardless of the origin thereof) to the prepayment of the principal of the Loans (and/or to provide payment or cover for L/C Exposure) in the manner specified in Article VII of the Credit Agreement.

5.03 Investment of Balance in Collateral Account. The cash balance standing to the credit of the Collateral Account shall be invested from time to time as the respective Obligor through KCMH or, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall determine which investments shall be held in the name and be under the control of the Administrative Agent (and credited to the Collateral Account); provided that at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may (and, if instructed by the Lenders as provided in the Credit Agreement, shall) in its (or their) discretion at any time and from time to time elect to liquidate any such investments and to apply or cause to be applied the proceeds thereof to the payment of the Secured Obligations then due and payable in the manner specified in Section 6.08.

5.04 Cover for L/C Exposure. Amounts deposited into the Collateral Account as cover for L/C Exposure under the Credit Agreement as contemplated by Article VII thereof shall be held by the Administrative Agent in a separate sub‑account (designated “L/C Exposure Sub‑Account”) and all amounts held in such sub‑account shall constitute collateral security first for the L/C Exposure outstanding from time to time and second as collateral security for the other Secured Obligations hereunder.

5.05 Delivery of Security Collateral. All certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Security Collateral (if and to the extent certificated and, with respect to Indebtedness (other than Intercompany Indebtedness), in an amount in excess of $5,000,000),

other than Security Collateral that is subject to a Lien permitted by Section 6.02(b)(ii), shall be promptly delivered to and held by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent (or its bailee or designee) pursuant hereto and shall be in suitable form for transfer by delivery, or shall be accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (or its bailee or designee).

5.06 Maintaining Pledged Deposit Account. Subject to Section 6.01(m) of the Credit Agreement, so long as any Guaranteed Obligation or Secured Obligation shall remain unpaid (other than any contingent obligations not then due), any Letter of Credit shall be outstanding (unless cash collateralized or otherwise backstopped on terms reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent and KCMH), or any Lender shall have any Commitment, each Obligor will maintain the primary account to deposit funds from the Credit Agreement only with the financial institution acting as Administrative Agent hereunder or with a bank that has agreed with such Obligor and the Administrative Agent (or its bailee or designee) to comply with instructions originated by the Administrative Agent (or its bailee or designee) directing the disposition of funds in such deposit account without the further consent of such Obligor, such agreement to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (or its bailee or designee). As of the Closing Date the Pledged Deposit Account is used as the primary account to deposit funds from the Credit Agreement and, for the avoidance of doubt, such Pledged Deposit Account may be replaced by another deposit account as the primary account to deposit funds from the Credit Agreement, subject to the requirements of this Section 5.06.

SECTION 6. Collateral Account and Deposit Further Assurances; Remedies. In furtherance of the grant of the security interest pursuant to Section 4, each Obligor hereby, jointly and severally with each other Obligor, agrees with the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors as follows:

6.01 Delivery and Other Perfection. Each Obligor shall promptly from time to time give, execute, deliver, file, record, authorize or obtain all such financing statements, continuation statements, notices, instruments, documents, agreements or consents or other papers as may be necessary to create, preserve, perfect, maintain the perfection of or validate the security interest granted pursuant hereto or to enable the Administrative Agent to exercise and enforce its rights hereunder with respect to such security interest, including recordations before the PTO, United States Copyright Office (and any similar office in any other country), as appropriate. Each Obligor hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to file one or more financing statements indicating that such financing statement covers all assets or all personal property (or words of similar effect) of such Obligor, in each case without the signature of such Obligor, and regardless of whether any particular asset described in such financing statements falls within the scope of the UCC or the granting clause of this Agreement. A photocopy or other reproduction of this Agreement shall be sufficient as a financing statement where permitted by law.

6.02 Other Financing Statements or Control. Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement and except to the extent otherwise permitted by the Loan Documents, no Obligor shall (a) file or suffer to be on file, or authorize or permit to be filed or to be on file, in any jurisdiction, any financing statement or like instrument with respect to any of the Collateral in

which the Administrative Agent is not named as the sole secured party for the benefit of the Secured Creditors, or (b) cause or permit any Person other than the Administrative Agent to have “control” (as defined in Section 9‑106 of the UCC) of any Equity Interest held by such Obligor in any of its Subsidiaries constituting part of the Collateral.

6.03 Preservation of Rights. The Administrative Agent shall not be required to take steps necessary to preserve any rights against prior parties to any of the Collateral.

6.04 Remedies. (a) Rights and Remedies Generally upon Default. Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or in any other Loan Document, or otherwise available to it, shall have all of the rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral of a secured party under the UCC (whether or not the UCC is in effect in the jurisdiction where the rights and remedies are asserted) and such additional rights and remedies to which a secured party is entitled under the laws in effect in any jurisdiction where any rights and remedies hereunder may be asserted, including the right, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to exercise all voting, consensual and other powers of ownership pertaining to the Collateral as if the Administrative Agent were the sole and absolute owner thereof (and each Obligor agrees to take all such action as may be appropriate to give effect to such right); and without limiting the foregoing:

(i) the Administrative Agent in its discretion may, in its name or in the name of any Obligor or otherwise, demand, sue for, collect or receive any money or other property at any time payable or receivable on account of or in exchange for any of the Collateral, but shall be under no obligation to do so;

(ii) the Administrative Agent may make any reasonable compromise or settlement deemed desirable with respect to any of the Collateral and may extend the time of payment, arrange for payment in installments, or otherwise modify the terms of, any of the Collateral; provided that the Administrative Agent shall provide KCMH with prior notice thereof;

(iii) the Administrative Agent may require the Obligors to notify (and each Obligor hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to so notify) each account debtor in respect of any Account, Chattel Paper or General Intangible, and each obligor on any Instrument, constituting part of the Collateral that such Collateral has been assigned to the Administrative Agent hereunder, and to instruct that any payments due or to become due in respect of such Collateral shall be made directly to the Administrative Agent or as it may direct (and if any such payments, or any other Proceeds of Collateral, are received by any Obligor they shall be held in trust by such Obligor for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and as promptly as possible remitted or delivered to the Administrative Agent for application as provided herein);

(iv) the Administrative Agent may prohibit withdrawals from, and/or apply to the payment of the Secured Obligations, any money or other property in the Collateral Account; provided that the Administrative Agent shall provide KCMH with prior notice thereof;

(v) the Administrative Agent may require the Obligors to cause any securities constituting part of the Collateral, to be transferred of record into the name of the Administrative Agent or its nominee (and the Administrative Agent agrees that if any of such securities is transferred into its name or the name of its nominee, the Administrative Agent will thereafter promptly give to respective Obligor (through KCMH) copies of any notices and communications received by it with respect to such securities);

(vi) the Administrative Agent may sell, lease, license, assign or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Collateral now owned or hereafter acquired at such place or places as the Administrative Agent deems best, and for cash or for credit or for future delivery (without thereby assuming any credit risk), at public or private sale, without demand of performance or notice of intention to effect any such disposition or of the time or place thereof (except such notice as is required by applicable statute and cannot be waived), and the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Creditor or anyone else may be the purchaser, lessee, licensee, assignee or recipient of any or all of the Collateral so disposed of at any public sale (or, to the extent permitted by law, at any private sale) and thereafter hold the same absolutely, free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind, including any right or equity of redemption (statutory or otherwise), of the Obligors, any such demand, notice and right or equity being hereby expressly waived and released. The Administrative Agent may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for the sale, and such sale may be made at any time or place to which the sale may be so adjourned; and

(vii) if the Administrative Agent shall determine to exercise its right to sell all or any of the Security Collateral of any Obligor pursuant this Section 6, each Obligor agrees that, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Obligor will, at its own expense, do or cause to be done all such other acts and things as may be necessary to make such sale of such Security Collateral or any part thereof valid and binding and in compliance with applicable law.

The Proceeds of each collection, sale or other disposition under this Section 6.04, shall be applied in accordance with Section 6.08.

(b) Certain Securities Act Limitations. The Obligors recognize that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable state securities laws, the Administrative Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire the Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. The Obligors acknowledge that any such public sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Administrative Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agree that any such public sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for public sale.

(c) Notice. The Obligors agree that to the extent the Administrative Agent is required by applicable law to give reasonable prior notice of any sale or other disposition of any Collateral, fifteen Business Days’ notice shall be deemed to constitute reasonable prior notice.

6.05 Deficiency. If the proceeds of sale, collection or other realization of or upon the Collateral pursuant to Section 6.04 are insufficient to cover the costs and expenses of such realization and the payment in full of the Secured Obligations, the Obligors shall remain liable for any deficiency.

6.06 Locations; Names, Etc. Without at least 30 days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period of time as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably agree), no Obligor shall (a) change its location (as defined in Section 9‑307 of the UCC) or (b) change its name, type of organization, mailing address or jurisdiction of organization from those set forth in Annex I hereto.

6.07 Public Sale. None of the Secured Creditors and the Administrative Agent shall incur any liability as a result of the sale of the Collateral, or any part thereof, at any public sale pursuant to Section 6.04 conducted in a commercially reasonable manner. Each Obligor hereby waives any claims against the Secured Creditors or the Administrative Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Collateral may have been sold at such a public sale was less than the price that might have been obtained at a public sale without such restrictions or was less than the aggregate amount of the Secured Obligations, even if the Administrative Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer the Collateral to more than one offeree.

6.08 Application of Proceeds. Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, except as otherwise herein expressly provided and except as provided below in this Section 6.08, the Proceeds of any collection, sale or other realization of all or any part of the Collateral pursuant hereto, and any other cash at the time held by the Administrative Agent under Section 5 or this Section 6, shall be applied by the Administrative Agent:

First, to the payment of the costs and expenses of such collection, sale or other realization, including reasonable out‑of‑pocket costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent and the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel, and all expenses incurred and advances made by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith;

Second, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (other than principal and interest but including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent) payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such;

Third, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal, interest and Letter of Credit fees) payable to the Lenders and the Issuing Lender (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the respective Lenders and the Issuing Lender), equally and ratably in accordance with the respective amounts thereof then due and owing;

Fourth, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid Letter of Credit fees and interest on the Loans, L/C Reimbursement Obligations and other obligations of the Obligors under the Loan Documents, equally and ratably in accordance with the respective amounts thereof then due and owing;

Fifth, to the payment in full of the Secured Obligations (other than those specified in clauses Second, Third and Fourth above), in each case equally and ratably in accordance with the respective amounts thereof then due and owing or as the Lenders holding the same may otherwise agree; and

Finally, to the payment to the relevant Obligor, or its successors or assigns, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct, of any surplus then remaining.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the proceeds of any cash or other amounts held in the L/C Exposure Sub‑Account of the Collateral Account pursuant to Section 5.04 shall be applied first to the L/C Exposure outstanding from time to time and second to the other Secured Obligations in the manner provided above in this Section 6.08.

6.09 Attorney‑in‑Fact. Without limiting any rights or powers granted by this Agreement to the Administrative Agent while no Event of Default has occurred and be continuing, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default the Administrative Agent is hereby appointed the attorney‑in‑fact of each Obligor for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Section 6 and taking any action and executing any instruments that the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, which appointment as attorney‑in‑fact is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, so long as the Administrative Agent shall be entitled under this Section 6 to make collections in respect of the Collateral, the Administrative Agent shall have the right and power to receive, endorse and collect all checks made payable to the order of any Obligor representing any dividend, payment or other distribution in respect of the Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the same.

6.10 Continuing Security Interest; Assignments. (a) This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall, subject to clause (b) below, (i) remain in full force and effect until the latest of (A) the payment in full in cash of the Secured Obligations (other than any contingent obligations indemnity not then due), (B) the termination or expiration of all of the Commitments of the Lenders and (C) the termination or expiration of all Letters of Credit (unless cash collateralized or otherwise backstopped on terms reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent and KCMH), (ii) be binding upon each Obligor, its successors and assigns and (iii) inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Secured Creditors and their respective successors, transferees and permitted assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (iii), any Lender may assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement (including, without limitation, all or any portion of its Commitments, the Loans owing to it and the Note or Notes, if any, held by it) to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Lender Party herein or otherwise, in each case as provided in Section 9.06 of the Credit Agreement.

(b) If any of the Collateral shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by any Obligor in a transaction not otherwise prohibited by any Loan Document, then such Collateral shall automatically be released from the Liens created hereby or under any other Loan Document and the Administrative Agent, at the request and sole expense of any Obligor, shall execute and deliver to such Obligor all releases or other documents reasonably necessary or desirable for the release of the Liens created hereby on such Collateral. At the request and sole expense of any Obligor, such Obligor (other than KCMH) shall be released from its obligations hereunder in the event that such Obligor shall cease to be a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of KCMH pursuant to a transaction not otherwise prohibited by any Loan Document.

6.11 Termination. When all Secured Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash (other than contingent indemnity obligations not then due) and the Commitments of the Lenders under the Credit Agreement and all L/C Exposure shall have expired or been terminated or have been cash collateralized or otherwise back-stopped on terms reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent and KCMH, this Agreement shall terminate, and the Administrative Agent shall forthwith cause to be assigned, transferred and delivered, against receipt but without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, any remaining Collateral and money received in respect thereof, to or on the order of the relevant Obligor. The Administrative Agent shall also, at the expense of such Obligor, execute and deliver to the respective Obligor upon such termination such UCC termination statements, as shall be reasonably requested by the respective Obligor to effect the termination and release of the Liens on the Collateral as required by this Section 6.11.

6.12 Further Assurances and Post-Closing Matters. Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, each Obligor agrees that from time to time (at the expense of such Obligor) upon the written request of the Administrative Agent, such Obligor will execute and deliver such further instruments and documents and do such other acts and things as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in order to fully effect the purposes of this Agreement and to enable the Administrative Agent to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral.

6.13 Voting Rights; Dividends; Etc. (a) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

(i) Each Obligor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Security Collateral of such Obligor or any part thereof for any purpose not in violation of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents;

(ii) Each Obligor shall be entitled to receive and retain any and all dividends, interest and other distributions paid in respect of the Security Collateral of such Obligor if and to the extent that the payment thereof is not otherwise prohibited by the terms of the Loan Documents; provided, however, that any and all dividends, interest and other distributions paid or payable other than in cash in respect of, and instruments and other property received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of, or in exchange for, any Security Collateral shall, if received by such Obligor, be received in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and, if required by Section 5.05, promptly be delivered to the Administrative Agent and held as Security Collateral in the same form received (with any necessary endorsements); and

(iii) The Administrative Agent will execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to each Obligor all such proxies and other instruments as such Obligor may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling such Obligor to exercise the voting and other rights that it is entitled to exercise pursuant to paragraph (i) above and to receive the dividends, interest and other payments that it is authorized to receive and retain pursuant to paragraph (ii) above.

(b) Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default:

(i) All rights of each Obligor (x) to exercise or refrain from exercising the voting and other consensual rights that it would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 6.13(a) shall, upon notice to such Obligor by the Administrative Agent, cease and (y) to receive the dividends, interest and other distributions that it would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant to Section 6.13(a) shall, upon notice to such Obligor by the Administrative Agent, cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Administrative Agent, which shall thereupon have the sole right to exercise or refrain from exercising such voting and other consensual rights and to receive and hold as Security Collateral such dividends, interest and other distributions.

(ii) All dividends, interest and other distributions that are received by any Obligor contrary to the provisions of paragraph (i) of this Section 6.13(b) shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, shall be segregated from other funds of such Obligor and shall be forthwith paid over to the Administrative Agent as Security Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement).

6.14 Administrative Agent May Perform. If any Obligor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, the Administrative Agent may, but without any obligation to do so and without notice, itself perform, or cause the performance of, such agreement, and the reasonable expenses of the Administrative Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by such Obligor.

6.15 The Administrative Agent’s Duties. (a) The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent hereunder are solely to protect the Secured Creditors’ interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the safe custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral, as to ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Collateral, whether or not any Secured Creditor has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property.

(b) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Administrative Agent may from time to time, when the Administrative Agent deems it to

be necessary, appoint one or more subagents (each a “Subagent”) for the Administrative Agent hereunder with respect to all or any part of the Collateral. In the event that the Administrative Agent so appoints any Subagent with respect to any Collateral, (i) the assignment and pledge of such Collateral and the security interest granted in such Collateral by each Obligor hereunder shall be deemed, for purposes of this Agreement, to have been made to such Subagent, in addition to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Creditors, as security for the Secured Obligations of such Obligor, (ii) such Subagent shall automatically be vested, in addition to the Administrative Agent, with all rights, powers, privileges, interests and remedies of the Administrative Agent hereunder with respect to such Collateral and (iii) the term “Administrative Agent,” when used herein in relation to any rights, powers, privileges, interests and remedies of the Administrative Agent with respect to such Collateral, shall include such Subagent; provided, however, that no such Subagent shall be authorized to take any action with respect to any such Collateral unless and except to the extent expressly authorized in writing by the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 7. Miscellaneous.

7.01 Notices. All notices, requests, consents and demands hereunder shall be in writing and telecopied or delivered to the intended recipient at its “address for notices” specified pursuant to Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement and shall be deemed to have been given at the times specified in said Section 9.02. Any notice to be delivered to any Guarantor hereunder shall be delivered to KCMH (at its aforesaid address) on behalf of such Guarantor.

7.02 No Waiver. No failure on the part of any Secured Creditor to exercise, and no course of dealing with respect to, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by any Secured Creditor of any right, power or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The remedies herein are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

7.03 Amendments, Etc. The terms of this Agreement may be waived, altered or amended only by an instrument in writing duly executed by each applicable Obligor and the Administrative Agent (with the consent of the Lenders as specified in Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement).

7.04 Indemnification by the Obligors. Each Obligor shall indemnify each Secured Creditor and each Related Party (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel for the Indemnitees (together with one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction) and, after notice to KCMH, of more than one such counsel to the extent any Indemnitee reasonably determines that there is an actual conflict of interest requiring the employment of separate counsel), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by any Obligor arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, including, without limitation, enforcement of this Agreement, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether

brought by a third party or by any Obligor 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 losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by an Obligor against an Indemnitee for material breach of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder, if such Obligor has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

7.05 Expenses. The Obligors jointly and severally agree to reimburse each of the Secured Creditors for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by them (including the reasonable fees and expenses of one legal counsel for the Secured Creditors in each relevant jurisdiction or of more than one such legal counsel to the extent any Secured Creditor reasonably determines that there is an actual conflict of interest requiring the employment of separate legal counsel) in connection with (a) any enforcement of their rights hereunder, or, during the continuation of an Event of Default, protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement or collection proceeding resulting therefrom, including, without limitation, all manner of participation in or other involvement with (i) performance by the Administrative Agent of any obligations of the Obligors in respect of the Collateral that the Obligors have failed or refused to perform, (ii) bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, foreclosure, winding up or liquidation proceedings, or any actual or attempted sale, or any exchange, enforcement, collection, compromise or settlement in respect of any of the Collateral, and for the care of the Collateral and defending or asserting rights and claims of the Administrative Agent in respect thereof, by litigation or otherwise, including expenses of insurance, (iii) judicial or regulatory proceedings and (iv) workout, restructuring or other negotiations or proceedings (whether or not the workout, restructuring or transaction contemplated thereby is consummated), (b) the enforcement of this Section 7.05, (c) the administration of this Agreement and (d) the custody, preservation, use or sale of any of the Collateral, and all such costs and expenses shall be Secured Obligations entitled to the benefits of the collateral security provided pursuant to Section 4.

7.06 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of each Obligor and the Secured Creditors; provided that no Obligor shall assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

7.07 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument and any of the parties hereto may execute this Agreement by signing any such counterpart.

7.08 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Etc. (a) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York.

(b) Submission to Jurisdiction. Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its Property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County 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 Guarantor irrevocably 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 applicable law, in such Federal court. Each Guarantor 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 Secured Creditor may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against any Obligor or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(c) Waiver of Venue. Each Guarantor 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 in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 7.08. Each Guarantor irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

7.09 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY 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 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 BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

7.10 Captions. The captions and section headings appearing herein are included solely for convenience of reference and are not intended to affect the interpretation of any provision of this Agreement.

7.11 Agents and Attorneys‑in‑Fact. The Administrative Agent may employ agents and attorneys‑in‑fact in connection herewith and shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys‑in‑fact selected by it in good faith.

7.12 Severability. If any provision hereof is invalid and unenforceable in any jurisdiction, then, to the fullest extent permitted by law, (a) the other provisions hereof shall remain in full force and effect in such jurisdiction and shall be liberally construed in favor of the Secured Creditors in order to carry out the intentions of the parties hereto as nearly as may be possible and (b) the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

7.13 Additional Subsidiary Guarantors. The Obligors shall cause any Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of KCMH that is a Domestic Subsidiary, other than any Broker-Dealer Subsidiary or any Domestic Subsidiary of a Foreign Subsidiary or a Domestic Subsidiary substantially all of whose assets consist of capital stock and/or indebtedness of one or more Foreign Subsidiaries, formed or acquired after the date hereof to become a “Guarantor” and an “Obligor” under this Agreement, by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent a Guarantee Assumption Agreement in the form of Exhibit 1 hereto (together with an appropriate legal opinion of counsel, as referred to in said Exhibit 1). Accordingly, upon the execution and delivery of any such Guarantee Assumption Agreement by any such new Subsidiary, such new Subsidiary shall automatically and immediately, and without any further action on the part of any Person, become a “Guarantor” and an “Obligor” under and for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, each reference in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the “Collateral” shall also mean and be a reference to the Collateral granted by such new Subsidiary and each reference in this Agreement to an Annex shall also mean and be a reference to the annex as attached to such Guaranteed Assumption Agreement. In addition, upon the execution and delivery of any such Guarantee Assumption Agreement, the new Guarantor makes the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3 hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of (i) KCM U.S. nor any other Broker-Dealer Subsidiary or (ii) any Wholly-Owned Domestic Subsidiary, the giving of a guarantee hereunder would, in the reasonable determination of KCMH, materially and adversely affect the ability of such Subsidiary to comply with applicable Laws and regulations, shall be a Guarantor under this Agreement.

7.14 Set off. Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Secured Creditor is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Secured Creditor to or for the credit or the account of any Guarantor against any and all of the obligations of such now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Secured Creditor irrespective of whether or not such Secured Creditor shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of such Guarantor may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Secured Creditor different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each Secured Creditor under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Secured Creditor may have. Each Secured Creditor agrees to notify such Guarantor and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application, provided, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

7.15 Intercreditor Agreements. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Lien and Security Interest granted to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Administrative Agent hereunder, are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and the terms of this Agreement, the terms of such Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control. No right, power or remedy granted to the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be exercised by the Administrative Agent, and no direction

shall be given by the Administrative Agent, in contravention of any such Intercreditor Agreement.
