Each Obligor has the corporate or limited liability company power, as applicable, and authority to own or hold under lease the properties it purports to own or hold under lease, to transact the business it transacts and proposes to transact, to execute and deliver each Financing Agreement to which it is a party and to perform the provisions hereof and thereof.

Section 5.2.    Authorization, Etc .    The Financing Agreements have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or limited liability company action, as applicable, on the part of each Obligor party thereto, and this Agreement constitutes, and upon execution and delivery thereof each Note will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Obligors party thereto enforceable against the Obligors in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may

-4-

The Financing Agreements, the Memorandum and the documents, certificates or other writings delivered to the Purchasers by or on behalf of the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and identified in Schedule 5.3, and the financial statements listed in Schedule 5.5 (the Financing Agreements, the Memorandum and such documents, certificates or other writings and such financial statements delivered to each Purchaser prior to June 20, 2008 being referred to, collectively, as the “Disclosure Documents” ), taken as a whole, do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made. Except as disclosed in the Disclosure Documents, since December 31, 2007, there has been no change in the financial condition, operations, business, properties or prospects of the Company or any Subsidiary except changes that individually or in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.9.    Taxes .    The Company and its Subsidiaries have filed all tax returns that are required to have been filed in any jurisdiction, and have paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns and all other taxes and assessments levied upon them or their properties, assets, income or franchises, to the extent such taxes and assessments have become due and payable and before they have become delinquent, except for any taxes and assessments (i) the amount of which is not individually or in the aggregate Material or (ii) the amount, applicability or validity of which is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which the Company or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, has established adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP. The Company knows of no basis for any other tax or assessment that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of each Obligor and its Subsidiaries in respect of federal, state or other taxes for all fiscal periods are adequate in all Material respects. The federal income tax liabilities of the Company and its Subsidiaries have been finally determined (whether by reason of completed audits or the statute of limitations having run) for all fiscal years up to and including the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001.

Section 5.12.    Compliance with ERISA .    (a) Each Obligor and each ERISA Affiliate have operated and administered each Plan in compliance with all applicable laws except for such instances of noncompliance as have not resulted in and could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No Obligor nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred any liability pursuant to Title I or IV of ERISA or the penalty or excise tax provisions of the Code relating to employee benefit plans (as defined in section 3 of ERISA), and no event, transaction or condition has occurred or exists that could reasonably be expected to result in the incurrence of any such liability by any Obligor or any ERISA Affiliate, or in the imposition of any Lien on any of the rights, properties or assets of any Obligor or any ERISA Affiliate, in either case pursuant to Title I or IV of ERISA or to such penalty or excise tax provisions or to section 401(a)(29) or 412 of the Code or section 4068 of ERISA, other than such liabilities or Liens as would not be individually or in the aggregate Material.

The representation by each Obligor to each Purchaser in the first sentence of this Section 5.12(e) is made in reliance upon and subject to the accuracy of such Purchaser’s representation in Section 6.2 as to the sources of the funds used to pay the purchase price of the Notes to be purchased by such Purchaser.

Section 5.13.    Private Offering by the Obligors .    No Obligor nor anyone acting on its behalf has offered the Notes, the Guarantee Agreement or any similar securities for sale to, or solicited any offer to buy any of the same from, or otherwise approached or negotiated in respect thereof with, any Person other than the Purchasers and not more than 30 other Institutional Investors, each of which has been offered the Notes pursuant to a private sale for investment. No Obligor nor anyone acting on its behalf has taken, or will take, any action that would subject the

-8-

Section 5.14.    Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations .    The Company will apply the proceeds of the sale of the Notes to finance a dividend payable to FTI and for general corporate purposes. No part of the proceeds from the sale of the Notes hereunder will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of buying or carrying any margin stock within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (12 CFR 221), or for the purpose of buying or carrying or trading in any securities under such circumstances as to involve the Company in a violation of Regulation X of said Board (12 CFR 224) or to involve any broker or dealer in a violation of Regulation T of said Board (12 CFR 220). Margin stock does not constitute more than 1.0% of the value of the consolidated assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries and each Obligor does not have any present intention that margin stock will constitute more than 1.0% of the value of such assets. As used in this Section, the terms “margin stock” and “purpose of buying or carrying” shall have the meanings assigned to them in said Regulation U.

Section 5.15.    Existing Indebtedness; Future Liens .    (a) Except as described therein, Schedule 5.15 sets forth a complete and correct list of all outstanding Indebtedness which aggregates in excess of $5,000,000 of each Obligor and its Subsidiaries as of March 31, 2008 (including a description of the obligors and obligees, principal amount outstanding and collateral therefor, if any, and Guaranty thereof, if any), since which date there has been no Material change in the amounts, interest rates, sinking funds, installment payments or maturities of the Indebtedness of any Obligor or its Subsidiaries except as set forth in the Disclosure Documents. No Obligor nor any Subsidiary is in default and no waiver of default is currently in effect, in the payment of any principal or interest on any Indebtedness of such Obligor or such Subsidiary and no event or condition exists with respect to any Indebtedness of any Obligor or any Subsidiary that would permit (or that with notice or the lapse of time, or both, would permit) one or more Persons to cause such Indebtedness to become due and payable before its stated maturity or before its regularly scheduled dates of payment.

    (b)    Except as disclosed in Schedule 5.15, no Obligor nor any Subsidiary has agreed or consented to cause or permit in the future (upon the happening of a contingency or otherwise) any of its property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, to be subject to a Lien not permitted by Section 10.5.

    (c)    No Obligor nor any Subsidiary is a party to, or otherwise subject to any provision contained in, any instrument evidencing Indebtedness of any Obligor or such Subsidiary, any agreement relating thereto or any other agreement (including, but not limited to, its charter or other organizational document) which limits the amount of, or otherwise imposes restrictions on the incurring of, Indebtedness of such Obligor, except as specifically indicated in Schedule 5.15 or under the Credit Agreement.

The Company will give each holder of Notes written notice of each optional prepayment under this Section 8.2 not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify such date (which shall be a Business Day), the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be prepaid on such date, the principal amount of each Note held by such holder to be prepaid (determined in accordance with Section 8.3), and the interest to be paid on the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount being prepaid, and shall be accompanied by a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer as to the estimated Make-Whole Amount due in connection with such prepayment (calculated as if the date of such notice were the date of the prepayment), setting forth the details of such computation. Two Business Days prior to such prepayment, the Company shall deliver to each holder of Notes a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer specifying the calculation of such Make-Whole Amount as of the specified prepayment date.

     Section 8.3.    Allocation of Partial Prepayments .    In the case of each partial prepayment of the Notes pursuant to Section 8.2, the principal amount of the Notes to be prepaid shall be allocated among all of the Notes at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts thereof not theretofore called for prepayment.

-17-

Section 8.6.    Make-Whole Amount .

     “Make-Whole Amount” means, with respect to any Note, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to the Called Principal of such Note over the amount of such Called Principal, provided that the Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero. For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Amount, the following terms have the following meanings:

     “Called Principal” means, with respect to any Note, the principal of such Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

     “Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in accordance with accepted financial practice and at a discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on the Notes is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal.

     “Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, .50% over the yield to maturity calculated by using (i) the yields reported as of 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on the display designated as “Page PX1” (or such other display as may replace Page PX1) on Bloomberg Financial Markets for the most recently issued actively traded on the run U.S. Treasury securities having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date, or (ii) if such yields are not reported as of such time or the yields reported as of such time are not ascertainable (including by way of interpolation), the Treasury Constant Maturity Series Yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (or any comparable successor publication) for actively traded U.S. Treasury securities having a constant maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date.

    In the case of each determination under clause (i) or clause (ii), as the case may be, of the preceding paragraph, such implied yield will be determined, if necessary, by (a) converting U.S. Treasury bill quotations to bond equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (b) interpolating linearly between (1) the actively traded U.S. Treasury security with the maturity closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) the actively traded U.S. Treasury security with the maturity closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Note.

-18-

    “Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to any Called Principal, the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) obtained by dividing (i) such Called Principal into (ii) the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (a) the principal component of each Remaining Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal by (b) the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) that will elapse between the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal and the scheduled due date of such Remaining Scheduled Payment.

     “Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, all payments of such Called Principal and interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date, provided that if such Settlement Date is not a date on which interest payments are due to be made under the terms of the Notes, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 12.1.

     “Settlement Date” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the date on which such Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

Section 8.7.    Change in Control .

    (b)     Offer to Prepay Notes .    The offer to prepay Notes contemplated by paragraph (a) of this Section 8.7 shall be an offer to prepay by the Company, in accordance with and subject to this Section 8.7, all, but not less than all, the Notes held by each holder (in this case only, “holder” in respect of any Note registered in the name of a nominee for a disclosed beneficial owner shall mean such beneficial owner) on a date specified in such offer (the “Prepayment Date” ) which shall be a Business Day occurring subsequent to the effective date of the Change in Control which is not less than 30 days or more than 60 days after the date of the notice of prepayment.

    (c)     Acceptance .    A holder of Notes may accept the offer to prepay made pursuant to this Section 8.7 by causing a notice of such acceptance to be delivered to the Company at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Prepayment Date. A failure by a holder of Notes to respond to an offer to prepay made pursuant to this Section 8.7 shall be deemed to constitute a rejection of such offer by such holder.

-19-

    (d)     Prepayment .    Prepayment of the Notes to be prepaid pursuant to this Section 8.7 shall be at 100% of the principal amount of the Notes together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon and shall be made on the Prepayment Date.

    (g)    All calculations contemplated in this Section 8.7 involving the capital stock or other equity interest of any Person shall be made with the assumption that all convertible securities of such Person then outstanding and then convertible and all convertible securities issuable upon the exercise of any warrants, options and other rights outstanding at such time that are then convertible were converted at such time and that all options, warrants and similar rights to acquire shares of capital stock or other equity interest of such Person that are then exercisable were exercised at such time.

No election to proceed in one form of action or proceeding, or against any party, or on any obligation, shall constitute a waiver of the right of such holder of Notes to proceed in any other form of action or proceeding or against other parties unless such holder of Notes has expressly waived such right in writing. Specifically, but without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no action or proceeding by any holder of Notes against the Company or any Guarantor under any document or instrument evidencing obligations of the Company or such Guarantor to such holder of Notes shall serve to diminish the liability of such Guarantor under this Agreement (including, without limitation, this Section 22) except to the extent that such holder of Notes finally and unconditionally shall have realized payment of the Guaranteed Obligations by such action or proceeding, notwithstanding the effect of any such action or proceeding upon such Guarantor’s right of subrogation against the Company.

Section 22.11.    Severability .    Each of the rights and remedies granted under this Section 22 to the holder of Notes in respect of the Notes held by such holder may be exercised by such holder without notice by such holder to, or the consent of or any other action by, any other holder of Notes.

Section 22.12.    Other Enforcement Rights .    Each holder of Notes may proceed to protect and enforce the Guarantee Agreement under this Section 22 by suit or suits or proceedings in equity, at law or in bankruptcy, and whether for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained in this Section 22 or in execution or aid of any power herein granted or for the recovery of judgment for or in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations or for the enforcement of any other proper, legal or equitable remedy available under applicable law.

-43-

Section 22.13.    Delay or Omission; No Waiver .    No course of dealing on the part of any holder of Notes and no delay or failure on the part of such holder to exercise any right under any Financing Agreement (including this Section 22) shall impair such right or operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice such holder’s rights, powers and remedies hereunder. Every right and remedy given in or by this Section 22 or by law to any holder of Notes may be exercised from time to time as often as may be deemed expedient by such Person.

Section 22.14.    Restoration of Rights and Remedies .    If any holder of Notes shall have instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy hereunder held by such holder and such proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or shall have been determined adversely to such holder, then and in every such case each such holder, the Company and each Guarantor shall, except as may be limited or affected by any determination in such proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their respective former positions hereunder and thereunder, and thereafter the rights and remedies of such holder shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

Section 22.15.    Cumulative Remedies .    No remedy under this Agreement (including, without limitation, this Section 22) or the Notes is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, but each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any and every other remedy given pursuant to this Agreement (including, without limitation, this Section 22), or pursuant to the Notes.

Section 22.16.    Survival.     So long as the Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been fully and finally performed and indefeasibly paid, the obligations of each Guarantor under this Section 22 shall survive the transfer and payment of any Note and the payment in full of all the Notes.

Section 22.17.    Miscellaneous .    So long as the Guaranteed Obligations owed by the Company shall not have been fully and finally performed and indefeasibly paid, each Guarantor (to the fullest extent that it may lawfully do so) expressly waives any claim of any nature arising out of any right of indemnity, contribution, reimbursement or any similar right in respect of any payment made by such Guarantor on or with respect to such Guaranteed Obligations under this Section 22 or in connection with this Section 22 or otherwise, or any claim of subrogation arising with respect to any such payment made under this Section 22 or otherwise, against any Obligor or the estate of such Obligor (including Liens on the property of such Obligor or the estate of such Obligor), in each case if, and for so long as, such Obligor is the subject of any proceeding brought under any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, administration, readjustment of debt, dissolution or liquidation law of any jurisdiction, whether now or hereafter in effect, and further agrees that it will not file any claims against such Obligor or the estate of such Obligor in the course of such proceeding in respect of the rights referred to in this Section 22, and further agrees that each holder of Notes may specifically enforce the provisions of this Section 22. This clause creates a promise which is intended to create obligations enforceable at the suit of each holder of Notes.

    If an Event of Default exists, then the holders of Notes shall have the right to declare all of the Guaranteed Obligations to be, and such Guaranteed Obligations shall thereupon become,

-44-

forthwith due and payable, without any presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which have been expressly waived by the Company and the Guarantors, and notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such Guaranteed Obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against the Company. In any such event, the holders of Notes shall have immediate recourse to such Guarantor to the fullest extent set forth herein.

Section 22.18.    Limitation .    Anything herein or in the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding, the liability of each Guarantor under this Agreement shall in no event exceed an amount equal to the maximum amount which can be guaranteed by such Guarantor under applicable laws relating to the insolvency of debtors and fraudulent conveyance.

Section 22.19.    Written Notice .    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 22, in the event of any acceleration of the Notes in accordance with the provisions of Section 12 hereof, any requirement of written notice to, or demand of, the Guarantors pursuant to this Section 22 shall be deemed automatically satisfied upon such acceleration without further action on the part of any holder (notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing any notice, demand or acceleration).

Section 22.20.    Unenforceability of Obligations .    As a separate and continuing undertaking, each Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to each holder of Notes that, should any Guaranteed Obligations not be recoverable against such Guarantor under this Guarantee Agreement on the footing of a guarantee for any reason, including, without limitation, a provision of this Guarantee Agreement or an obligation (or purported obligation) of any Obligor to pay any Guaranteed Obligation being or becoming void, voidable, unenforceable or otherwise invalid, and whether or not that reason is or was known to any holder of Notes, and whether or not that reason is:

(a)    a defect in or lack of powers affecting any Obligor, or the irregular exercise of those powers; or

(b)    a defect in or lack of authority by a person purporting to act on behalf of any Obligor; or

(c)    a dissolution, change in status, constitution or control, reconstruction or reorganization of any Obligor (or the commencement of steps to effect the same),

then such Guarantor will, as a separate and additional obligation under this Guarantee Agreement, indemnify the holder of Notes concerned immediately on demand against the amount which such holder would otherwise have been able to recover (on a full indemnity basis). In this subsection 22.20, the expression “Guaranteed Obligations” includes any Indebtedness which would have been included in that expression but for anything referred to in this clause.

Section 22.21.    Indemnity .    As a separate and continuing undertaking, each Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to each holder of Notes to indemnify and hold harmless that holder against all losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses whatsoever arising out of:
