(viii) all negotiations relative to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby have been carried out by each Company directly with the Security Holders without the intervention of any person on behalf of each Company in such manner as to give rise to any valid claim by any person against the Security Holders, each Company or any subsidiary for a finder’s fee, brokerage commission or similar payment (other than Rothschild Inc. and Saybrook Restructuring Advisors, LLC for whose fees, commissions and similar payments, the Companies have assumed all liability subject to the terms of the engagement letter of each);

11. Confidentiality.

(a) This Agreement and the terms and conditions contained herein shall not be disclosed by the Companies to any person or entity without the prior written consent of each

Security Holder, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld; provided, that any Security Holder that reasonably withholds its consent shall be deemed to no longer be party to this Agreement and provided further, that (i) the Companies may disclose the terms of this Agreement generally in the Solicitation Materials and may disclose the aggregate percentages of each class of Securities tendered and file a form of this Agreement without the schedules attached (unless requested to be disclosed by the Commission) as an exhibit to the Form S-4, in each case without disclosing the amount of such Security Holder’s holdings of securities and (ii) the Companies may issue a press release in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Security Holders describing the terms of this Agreement.

(b) You acknowledge that the Security Holders and their affiliates may be providing debt financing, equity capital or other services (including financial advisory services) to other companies in respect of which you may have conflicting interests regarding the transactions described herein. The Security Holders shall not use confidential information obtained from you by virtue of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or their other relationships with you in connection with the performance by the Security Holders of services for other companies, and the Security Holders will not furnish any such information to other companies. You also acknowledge that the Security Holders have no obligation to use in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or to furnish to you, confidential information obtained from other companies.

12. Indemnity. The Companies shall indemnify each Security Holder and each of their respective affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors, partners, trustees, employees, shareholders, advisors and agents (each an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, to which the Indemnitee may become subject arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder, (ii) the Restructuring or (iii) any actual claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory; 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 gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Indemnitee, or (y) constitute a loss by a Security Holder in the value of its investment in the Companies. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnitee of notice of any complaint or the commencement of any action or proceeding with respect to which indemnification is being sought hereunder, such Indemnitee will notify the Companies in writing of such complaint or of the commencement of such action or proceeding, but failure so to notify the Companies will not relieve the Companies from any liability which the Companies may have hereunder or otherwise, except to the extent that such failure materially prejudices the Companies’ rights. If the Companies so elect or are requested by such Indemnitee, the Companies will assume the defense of such action or proceeding, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee and the payment of the reasonable fees and disbursements of such counsel, and in such event such Indemnitee will cooperate in connection therewith as reasonably requested by the Companies (subject to the reasonable expenses of such Indemnitee being reimbursed by the

Companies as provided above). In the event, however, such Indemnitee reasonably determines, upon the advice of counsel, that having common counsel with the Companies would present such counsel with a conflict of interest or if the Companies fail to assume the defense of the action or proceeding in a timely manner, then such Indemnitee may employ separate counsel to represent or defend it in any such action or proceeding and the Companies will pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of one such separate counsel for the Indemnitees; provided, that where the parties to any action or proceeding include more than one Indemnitee and any Indemnitee shall have been advised by counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to such Indemnitee which are different from or additional to those available to each other Indemnitee, the Companies shall be obligated to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of each Indemnitee’s separate counsel. In any action or proceeding the defense of which the Companies assume, any Indemnitee will have the right to participate in such litigation and to retain its own counsel at such Indemnitee’s own expense.

13. Survival. The provisions of this Agreement relating to the confidentiality and the provisions of Sections 12, 20, 21 and 22 hereof will survive the expiration or termination of any provision hereunder or this Agreement (including any extensions) and the execution and delivery of definitive documentation.

14. Amendments and Modifications. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, this Agreement shall not be amended, modified or supplemented, except in writing signed by the Companies and each Security Holder; provided, that any Security Holder that reasonably withholds its consent shall be deemed to no longer be party to this Agreement.

15. No Waiver. Each of the signatories to this Agreement expressly acknowledges and agrees that, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement is intended to, nor does, in any manner waive, limit, impair or restrict the ability of any party to this Agreement to protect and preserve all of its rights, remedies and interests, including, without limitation, with respect to its ownership of claims against or equity securities of the Companies or any of their subsidiaries.

16. Further Assurances. Each of the signatories to this Agreement hereby further covenants and agrees to cooperate in good faith to execute and deliver all further documents and agreements and take all further action that may be commercially reasonably necessary or desirable in order to enforce and effectively implement the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

17. Complete Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the complete agreement between the signatories to this Agreement with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous negotiations, agreements and understandings with respect to the subject matter hereof (including the No-Transfer Agreement dated as of April 8, 2004, as amended, between the Companies and the Security Holders named therein, but excluding (i) any confidentiality agreements entered into by the Security Holders and the Companies; (ii) the engagement letters entered into by the Companies and Saybrook Restructuring Advisors, LLC and Milbank, Tweed, Hadley and McCloy LLP, respectively, and (iii) the Commitment Letter dated February 4, 2004 between Foster Wheeler LLC and the

purchasers named therein, in each case, as amended from time to time). The provisions of this Agreement shall be interpreted in a reasonable manner to effect the intent of the signatories to this Agreement.
