The Applicable Margin on the Closing

Date shall be 2.60% with respect to the Revolving Loans and 2.80% with respect to the Term Loans. The Applicable Unused Fee Percentage on the Closing Date shall be 0.25%. The Applicable Margin will be adjusted on quarterly basis in accordance with the table set forth below:

Each Revolving Credit Lender will make the proceeds of its Base Rate Loan included in such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender in accordance with Section 2.9, which will be used solely for the repayment of such Swingline Loan.

(c) If for any reason a Base Rate Borrowing may not be (as determined in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent), or is not, made in accordance with the foregoing provisions, then such Swingline Loan shall automatically be converted to a Base Rate Loan, upon notice from the Swingline Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Company, and each Revolving Credit Lender (other than the Swingline Lender) shall purchase an undivided participating interest in such Swingline Loan in an amount equal to its Revolving Credit Percentage thereof on the date that such Base Rate Borrowing should have occurred. On the date of such required purchase, each Revolving Credit Lender shall promptly transfer, in immediately available funds, the amount of its participating interest to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender.

If such amount is not in fact made available to the Swingline Lender by any Revolving Credit Lender, the Swingline Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Revolving Credit Lender, together with accrued interest thereon for each day from the date of demand thereof at the Federal Funds Rate. Until such time as such Revolving Credit Lender makes its required payment, the Swingline Lender shall be deemed to continue to have outstanding Swingline Loans in the amount of the unpaid participation for all purposes of the Loan Documents. In addition, such Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to have assigned any and all payments made of principal and interest on its Loans and any other amounts due to it hereunder, to the Swingline Lender to fund the amount of such Revolving Credit Lender’s participation interest in such Swingline Loans that such Revolving Credit Lender failed to fund pursuant to this Section, until such amount has been purchased in full.

Upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Issuing Bank without recourse a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. Each issuance of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to utilize the Revolving Commitment of each Revolving Credit Lender by an amount equal to the amount of such participation.

(b) To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or any amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Company shall give the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent irrevocable written notice at least three (3) Business Days prior to the requested date of such issuance specifying the date (which shall be a Business Day) such Letter of Credit is to be issued (or amended, extended or renewed, as the case may be), the expiration date of such Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit.

(c) At least two Business Days prior to the issuance of any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received such notice and if not, the Issuing Bank will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the Issuing Bank has received notice from the Administrative Agent on or before the Business Day immediately preceding the date the Issuing Bank is to issue the requested Letter of Credit (1) directing the Issuing Bank not to issue the Letter of Credit because such issuance is not then permitted hereunder because of the limitations

set forth in Section 2.6(a) or (2) that one or more of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 8 of this Agreement are not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Issuing Bank shall, on the requested date, issue such Letter of Credit in accordance with the Issuing Bank’s usual and customary business practices.

(d) The Issuing Bank shall examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit promptly following its receipt thereof. The Issuing Bank shall notify the Company and the Administrative Agent of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make a LC Disbursement hereunder; provided, that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrowers of their obligations to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the Revolving Credit Lenders with respect to such LC Disbursement. The Borrowers shall be irrevocably and unconditionally obligated to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursements paid by the Issuing Bank in respect of such drawing upon the Issuing Bank’s written demand therefor, but otherwise without presentment, demand, or other formalities of any kind. Unless the Company shall have notified the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent prior to 11:00 a.m. (Eastern time) on the Business Day immediately prior to the date on which drawing is honored that the Borrowers intend to reimburse the Issuing Bank for the amount of such drawing in funds other than from the proceeds of Revolving Loans, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have timely given a Notice of Borrowing to the Administrative Agent requesting the Revolving Credit Lenders to make a Base Rate Borrowing on the date on which such drawing is honored in an exact amount due to the Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Credit Lenders of such Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.3, and each Revolving Credit Lender shall make the proceeds of its Base Rate Loan included in such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank in accordance with Section 2.9. The proceeds of such Borrowing shall be applied directly by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for such LC Disbursement.

(e) If for any reason a Base Rate Borrowing may not be (as determined in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent), or is not, made in accordance with the foregoing provisions, then each Revolving Credit Lender (other than the Issuing Bank) shall be obligated to fund the participation that such Revolving Credit Lender purchased pursuant to subsection (a) in an amount equal to its Revolving Credit Percentage of such LC Disbursement on and as of the date which such Base Rate Borrowing should have occurred. Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to fund its participation shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including without limitation (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Revolving Credit Lender or any other Person may have against the Issuing Bank or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the existence of a Default or an Event of Default or the termination of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments, (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries, (iv) any breach of this Agreement by any Borrower or any other Revolving Credit Lender, (v) any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or (vi) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. On the date that such participation is required to be funded, each Revolving Credit Lender shall promptly transfer, in immediately available funds, the amount of its participation to the

Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank. Whenever, at any time after the Issuing Bank has received from any such Revolving Credit Lender the funds for its participation in a LC Disbursement, the Issuing Bank (or the Administrative Agent on its behalf) receives any payment on account thereof, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, will distribute to such Revolving Credit Lender its Revolving Credit Percentage of such payment: provided, that if such payment is required to be returned for any reason to a Borrower or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or similar official in any bankruptcy proceeding, such Revolving Credit Lender will return to the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank any portion thereof previously distributed by the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank to it.

(f) To the extent that any Revolving Credit Lender shall fail to pay any amount required to be paid pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section 2.6 on the due date therefor, such Revolving Credit Lender shall pay interest to the Issuing Bank (through the Administrative Agent) on such amount from such due date to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate: provided, that if such Revolving Credit Lender shall fail to make such payment to the Issuing Bank within three (3) Business Days of such due date, then, retroactively to the due date, such Revolving Credit Lender shall be obligated to pay interest on such amount at the rate for Default Interest.

(g) If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Company receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrowers shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, an amount in cash equal to the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon: provided, that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrowers described in Sections 9.1 (h) or 9.1 (i). Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Borrowers’ risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest and profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it had not been reimbursed and to the extent so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrowers for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, with the consent of the Required Lenders, be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement. If the Borrowers are required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not so applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrowers with three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived.

(h) Promptly following the end of each fiscal quarter, the Issuing Bank shall deliver (through the Administrative Agent) to each Lender and the Company a report describing the aggregate Letters of Credit outstanding at the end of such fiscal quarter. Upon the request of any Lender from time to time, the Issuing Bank shall deliver to such Lender any other information reasonably requested by such Lender with respect to each Letter of Credit then outstanding.

(i) The Borrowers’ obligations to reimburse LC Disbursements hereunder shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of any of the following circumstances:

(1) Any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement;

(2) The existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which a Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of a Borrower may have at any time against a beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Persons or entities for whom any such beneficiary or transferee may be acting), any Lender (including the Issuing Bank) or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement or the Letter of Credit or any document related hereto or thereto or any unrelated transaction;

(3) Any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

(4) Payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document to the Issuing Bank that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit;

(5) Any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrowers’ obligations hereunder; or

(6) The existence of a Default or an Event of Default.

(j) Neither the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Lenders nor any Affiliate of any of the foregoing shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to above), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank; provided, that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrowers to the extent of any

direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrowers that are caused by the Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts or other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree, that in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(k) (Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Issuing Bank and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued and subject to applicable laws, performance under Letters of Credit by the Issuing Bank, its correspondents, and the beneficiaries thereof will be governed by the rules of the “International Standby Practices 1998” (ISP98) (or such later revision as may be published by the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice on any date any Letter of Credit may be issued), and, to the extent not inconsistent therewith, the governing law of this Agreement set forth in Section 11.5.

2.7 Term Loan Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Term Loan Lender severally agrees to make a term loan (each, a “Term Loan”) to the Borrowers on the Closing Date in a principal amount not to exceed the Term Loan Commitment of such Term Loan Lender; provided, that if for any reason the full amount of such Term Loan Lender’s Term Loan Commitment is not fully drawn on the Closing Date, the undrawn portion thereof shall automatically be cancelled. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Borrowers and the satisfaction of all conditions precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute the request of the Company and the other Borrowers to borrow the Term Loans on the Closing Date.

2.8 Reserved.

2.9 Funding of Borrowings.

(a) Each Lender will make available each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer in immediately available funds by 11:00 a.m. (Eastern time) to the Administrative Agent at the Payment Office; provided that the Swingline Loans will be made as set forth in Section 2.5. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrowers by promptly crediting the amounts that it receives, in like funds by the close of business on such proposed date, to an account maintained by the Company with the Administrative Agent or at the Company’s option, by effecting a wire transfer of such amounts to an account designated by the Company to the Administrative Agent.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to 5:00 p.m. (Eastern time) one (1) Business Day prior to the date of a Borrowing in which such Lender is participating 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 such amount available to the Administrative Agent on such date, and the Administrative Agent, in reliance on such assumption, may make available to the Borrowers on such date a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender on the date of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender together with interest at the Federal Funds Rate for up to two (2) days and thereafter at the rate specified for such Borrowing. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Company, and the Borrowers shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent together with interest at the rate specified for such Borrowing. Nothing in this subsection shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fund its pro rata share of any Borrowing hereunder or to prejudice any rights which the Borrowers may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

(c) No Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in its obligations hereunder, and each Lender shall be obligated to make its Loans provided to be made by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Lender to make its Loans hereunder.

2.10 Interest Elections.

(a) On the Closing Date, each Borrowing shall be an Index Rate Loan. After the Closing Date, each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Notice of Borrowing, and in the case of a LIBOR Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Notice of Borrowing. Thereafter, the Borrowers may elect to convert such Borrowing into a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and in the case of a LIBOR Borrowing may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Borrowers may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at no time shall the total number of LIBOR Borrowings outstanding exceed four (4) and the aggregate principal amount of each LIBOR Borrowing shall be not less than $1,000,000 or a larger multiple of $500,000, and the aggregate principal amount of each Base Rate Borrowing and each Index Rate Borrowing shall not be less than $500,000 or a larger multiple of $100,000; provided, that Base Rate Loans and Index Rate Loans made pursuant to Section 2.5 or Section 2.6(d) may be made in lesser amounts as provided therein. If a Notice of Borrowing does not specify a Type, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have requested an Index Rate Borrowing with respect to Swingline Loans, and a Base Rate Borrowing with respect to any other Loans.

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Company shall give the Administrative Agent prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing)

of each Borrowing (a “Notice of Conversion/Continuation”) that is to be converted or continued, as the case may be, (x) prior to 10:00 a.m. (Eastern time) one (1) Business Day prior to the requested date of a conversion into a Base Rate Borrowing and (y) prior to 11:00 a.m. (Eastern time) three (3) Business Days prior to a continuation of or conversion into a LIBOR Borrowing. Each such Notice of Conversion/Continuation shall be irrevocable and shall specify (i) the Borrowing to which such Notice of Continuation/Conversion applies and if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof that are to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing): (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Notice of Continuation/Conversion, which shall be a Business Day, (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be a Base Rate Borrowing, an Index Rate Borrowing or a LIBOR Borrowing; and (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is to be a LIBOR Borrowing, the Interest Period applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of “Interest Period.” If any such Notice of Continuation/Conversion requests a LIBOR Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month.

(c) If, on the expiration of any Interest Period in respect of any LIBOR Borrowing, the Company shall have failed to deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation when required by Section 2.10(b), then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have elected to convert such Borrowing to a Base Rate Borrowing. No Borrowing may be converted into, or continued as, a LIBOR Borrowing if a Default or an Event of Default exists, unless the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders shall have otherwise consented in writing.

(d) Upon receipt of any Notice of Conversion/Continuation, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions or any other provision of this Agreement if there is more than one Lender, the Borrowers shall not have the right to obtain Index Rate Loans, and, unless all of the Lenders otherwise agree in writing, each Loan, other than Swingline Loans, shall be a Base Rate Loan or a LIBOR Loan.

2.11 Repayment of Loans.

(a) The outstanding principal amount of all Revolving Loans shall be due and payable (together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon) on the Commitment Termination Date.

(b) The principal amount of each Swingline Borrowing shall be due and payable on the Swingline Termination Date.

(c) The Borrowers unconditionally promise to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Term Loan Lender the then unpaid principal amount of the Term Loans of such Term Loan Lender in equal consecutive quarterly installments of $900,000, each

due on the first day of each January, April, July and October, beginning July 1, 2007. To the extent not previously paid, the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Term Loans, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable on the Term Loan Maturity Date.

2.12 Interest on Loans.

(a) The Borrowers shall 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:

(1) During such periods as such Loan is an Index Rate Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the Index Rate plus the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time. The interest rate on Index Rate Loans shall be established based on the Index Rate in effect on the first Index Rate Determination Date, and shall be adjusted on each Index Rate Determination Date thereafter to reflect the Index Rate then in effect.

(2) During such periods as such Loan is a Base Rate Loan, a rate per annum equal at all times to the Base Rate in effect from time to time. The rate at which interest accrues on the unpaid principal balance of the Base Rate Loans shall be changed effective as of the date of any change in the Base Rate.

(3) During such periods as such Loan is a LIBOR Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the LIBOR for the applicable Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time. The applicable LIBOR shall remain in effect until the end of the applicable Interest Period.

(b) While an Event of Default exists or after acceleration, the Borrowers shall pay interest (“Default Interest”) with respect to all LIBOR Loans at the rate otherwise applicable for the then-current Interest Period plus an additional 2% per annum until the last day of such Interest Period, and thereafter, and with respect to all all other Obligations hereunder, at the rate then in effect for Base Rate Loans, plus an additional 2% per annum.

(c) Interest on the principal amount of all Loans shall accrue from and including the date such Loans are made to but excluding the date of any repayment thereof. Interest on all outstanding Base Rate Loans and Index Rate Loans shall be payable monthly in arrears on the first day of each calendar month and on the Commitment Termination Date, the Swingline Termination Date or the Term Loan Maturity Date, as the case may be Interest on all outstanding LIBOR Loans shall be payable on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto, and, in the case of any LIBOR Loans having an Interest Period in excess of three months, on each day which occurs every three months, after the initial date of such Interest Period, and on the Commitment Termination Date or the Term Loan Maturity Date, as the case may be Interest on any Loan which is converted into a Loan of another Type or which is repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such conversion or on the date of any such repayment or prepayment (on the amount repaid or prepaid) thereof. All Default Interest shall be payable on demand.

(d) The Administrative Agent shall determine each interest rate applicable to the Loans hereunder and shall promptly notify the Company and the Lenders of such rate in writing (or by telephone, promptly confirmed in writing). Any such determination shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

2.13 Fees.

(a) The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent and the Arranger, for their own respective accounts, fees in the amounts and at the times as may be agreed upon in writing by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent and the Arranger from time to time.

(b) In consideration of the Term Loan Lenders’ commitment to make the Term Loans, the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent on the Closing Date a non-refundable origination fee of 0.375% of the aggregate amount of the Term Loan Commitments for the pro rata benefit of each Term Loan Lender.

(c) The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for its own account the Administrative Fee on the Closing Date and each anniversary thereof.

(d) In consideration of the expenses incurred by the Lenders in connection with administering the Loans and monitoring the Borrowing Base, the Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender a fee on the Unused Facility Balance outstanding from time to time calculated at a rate of the Applicable Unused Fee Percentage per annum, which fee shall accrue on a daily basis, beginning on the date of this Agreement, and shall be payable in arrears, on the first day of each January, April, July and October, beginning on April 1, 2007, and on the Commitment Termination Date.

(e) The Borrowers agree to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender, a letter of credit fee with respect to its participation in each Letter of Credit, which shall accrue at the Applicable Margin then applicable to Revolving LIBOR Loans, on the average daily amount of such Revolving Credit Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) attributable to such Letter of Credit during the period from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit to but excluding the date on which such Letter of Credit expires or is drawn in full (including without limitation any LC Exposure that remains outstanding after the Commitment Termination Date) and (ii) to the Issuing Bank for its own account a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate of 0.25% per annum on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) attributable to such Letter of Credit during the period from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit to but excluding the date on which such Letter of Credit expires or is drawn in full (including without limitation any LC Exposure that remains outstanding after the Commitment Termination Date), as well as the Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Accrued letter of credit and fronting fees shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of each January, April, July and October, commencing on the first such date next succeeding the Closing Date, and on the Commitment Termination Date (and if later, the date the LC Exposure shall be repaid in its entirety).

2.14 Computation of Interest and Fees. All computations of interest and fees hereunder 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 fees are payable (to the extent computed on the basis of days elapsed). Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest amount or fee hereunder shall be made in good faith and, except for manifest error, shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes.

2.15 Evidence of Indebtedness.

(a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice appropriate records evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrowers to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable thereon and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall maintain appropriate records in which shall be recorded (i) the Revolving Commitment and the Term Loan Commitment of each Lender, (ii) the amount of each Loan made hereunder by each Lender, the Class and Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (iii) the date of each continuation thereof pursuant to Section 2.10, (iv) the date of each conversion of all or a portion thereof to another Type pursuant to Section 2.10, (v) the date and amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrowers to each Lender hereunder in respect of such Loans and (vi) both the date and amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrowers in respect^: of the Loans and each Lender’s pro rata share thereof. The entries made in such records shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrowers therein recorded; provided, that the failure or delay of any Lender or the Administrative Agent in maintaining or making entries into any such record or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligations of the Borrowers to repay the Loans (both principal and unpaid accrued interest) of such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(b) At the request of any Lender (including the Swingline Lender) at any time, each Borrower agrees that it shall execute and deliver to such Lender a Revolving Note, and/or a Term Note and, in the case of the Swingline Lender only, a Swingline Note, payable to the order of such Lender, in the applicable amount of such Lender’s Commitment.

2.16 Inability to Determine Interest Rates. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for any LIBOR Borrowing or on the Index Rate Determination Date for any Index Rate Borrowing.

(1) the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrowers) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant interbank market, adequate means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for such Interest Period or the Index Rate on such Index Rate Determination Date, or

(2) the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from any Lender that the applicable LIBOR or the Index Rate, as applicable, does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lender of making, funding or maintaining its, as the LIBOR Loans for such Interest Period or its Index Rate Loans, as applicable.

the Administrative Agent shall give written notice (or telephonic notice, promptly confirmed in writing) to the Company and to the Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. In the case of LIBOR Loans, until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Company and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist (which it shall promptly do), (i) the obligations of the Lenders to make LIBOR Loans or Index Rate Loans or to continue or convert outstanding Loans as or into LIBOR Loans or Index Rate Loans shall be suspended and (ii) all such affected LIBOR Rate Loans shall be converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto, and all Index Rate Loans shall automatically be converted to Base Rate Loans, unless, in either case, the Borrowers prepay such Loans in accordance with this Agreement. Unless the Company notifies the Administrative Agent at least one Business Day before the date of any LIBOR Revolving Loan Borrowing for which a Notice of Borrowing as to such Revolving Loan Borrowing has previously been given that the Borrowers elect not to borrow on such date, then such Revolving Loan Borrowing shall be made as a Base Rate Borrowing.

2.17 Illegality. If any Change in Law shall make it unlawful or impossible for any Lender to make, maintain or fund any LIBOR Loan or Index Rate Loan and such Lender shall so notify the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Company and the other Lenders, whereupon until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Company that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist (which it shall promptly do), the obligation of such Lender to make LIBOR Loans and Index Rate Loans, or to continue or convert outstanding Loans as or into LIBOR Loans or Index Rate Loans, shall be suspended. In the case of the making of a LIBOR Revolving Loan Borrowing or Index Rate Revolving Loan Borrowing, such Lender’s Revolving Loan shall be made as a Base Rate Loan as part of the same Revolving Loan Borrowing and if the affected LIBOR Loan or Index Rate Loan is then outstanding, such Loan shall be converted to a Base Rate Loan either (i) on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Loan if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Loan to such date or (ii) immediately if such Lender shall determine that it may not lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Loan to such date, and immediately in the case of an Index Rate Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the affected Lender shall, prior to giving such notice to the Administrative Agent, designate a different Applicable Lending Office if such designation would avoid the need for giving such notice and if such designation would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender in the good faith exercise of its discretion.

2.18 Increased Costs.

(a) Except with respect to Taxes, which are addressed in Section 2.20, if any Change in Law shall:

(1) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement that is not otherwise included in the determination of LIBOR or the Index Rate hereunder against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Index Rate or LIBOR) or the Issuing Bank: or

(2) impose on any Lender or on the Issuing Bank or the eurodollar interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or any Index Rate Loans or LIBOR Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or any participation therein;

and the result of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining an Index Rate Loan or a LIBOR Loan or to increase the cost to such Lender or the Issuing Bank of participating in or issuing any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount received or receivable by such Lender or the Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount), then the Borrowers shall promptly pay, upon written notice from and demand by such Lender on the Company (with a copy of such notice and demand to the Administrative Agent), to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, within ten (10) Business Days after the date of such notice and demand, the additional amount or amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender or the Issuing Bank shall have determined that on or after the date of this Agreement any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s capital (or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s parent company) as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under or in respect of any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s parent company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s policies or the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s parent company with respect to capital adequacy) then, from time to time, within ten (10) Business Days after receipt by the Company of written demand by such Lender (with a copy thereof to the Administrative Agent), the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s parent company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s parent company, as the case may be, specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, and the calculation thereof, shall be delivered to the Company (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay any such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such amount or amounts within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation.

2.19 Funding Indemnity. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of a LIBOR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion or continuation of a LIBOR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or (c) the failure by the Borrowers to borrow, prepay, convert or continue any LIBOR Loan on the date specified in any applicable notice (regardless of whether such notice is withdrawn or revoked), then, in any such event, the Borrowers shall compensate each Lender, within ten (10) Business Days after written demand from such Lender, for any loss, cost or expense attributable to such event. In the case of a LIBOR Loan, such loss, cost or expense shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (A) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the principal amount of such LIBOR Loan if such event had not occurred at LIBOR applicable to such LIBOR Loan for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan) over (B) the amount of interest that would accrue on the principal amount of such LIBOR Loan for the same period if LIBOR were set on the date such LIBOR Loan was prepaid or converted or the date on which the Borrowers failed to borrow, convert or continue such LIBOR Loan. A certificate as to any additional amount payable under this Section submitted to a Borrower by any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

2.20 Taxes.

(a) Except as otherwise required by applicable Law, any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes: provided, that if the Borrowers shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable^: shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank (as the case may be) shall receive an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrowers shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrowers shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant governmental authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, the Borrowers shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant governmental authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) The Borrowers shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Bank, within thirty (30) Business Days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes

imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant governmental authority. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowers shall not be obligated to make payment to any of the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank with respect to penalties, interest and expenses if (i) such amounts arose as a result of such party’s failure to timely pay such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, (ii) written demand therefore was not made within 60 days from the date on which such party received a written notice of the imposition of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, (iii) such amounts arose or accrued after the Borrowers’ satisfaction of their indemnification obligations under this Section 2.20(c), or (iv) such amounts are attributable to such party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. A certificate prepared in good faith as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrowers by a Lender or the Issuing Bank, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrowers to a governmental authority, the Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such governmental authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Any Foreign Lender that becomes a party to this Agreement and that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the Code or any treaty to which the United States is a party with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrowers (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed in this Section 2.20(e) or as otherwise prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrowers as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Foreign Lender agrees that it will deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers (or in the case of a Participant, to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased), as appropriate, two (2) duly completed copies of (i) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 ECI, or any successor form thereto, certifying that the payments received from the Borrowers hereunder are effectively connected with such Foreign Lender’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States; or (ii) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 BEN, or any successor form thereto, certifying that such Foreign Lender is entitled to benefits under an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party which reduces the rate of withholding tax on payments of interest; or (iii) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 BEN, or any successor form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, together with a certificate (A) establishing that the payment to the Foreign Lender qualifies as “portfolio interest” exempt from U.S. withholding tax under Code section 871(h) or 881(c), and (B) stating that (1) the Foreign Lender is not a bank for purposes of Code section 881(c)(3)(A); (2) the Foreign Lender is not a 10% shareholder of a Borrower within the meaning of Code section 871(h)(3) or 881(c)(3)(B); and (3) the Foreign Lender is not a controlled foreign corporation that is related to a Borrower within the meaning of Code section 881(c)(3)(C); or (iv) such other Internal Revenue Service forms as may be applicable to the Foreign Lender, including

Forms W-8 IMY or W-8 EXP. Each such Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent such forms on or before the Closing Date or the date that it otherwise becomes a party to this Agreement (or in the case of a Participant, on or before the date such Participant purchases the related participation). In addition, each such Foreign Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Foreign Lender. Each such Foreign Lender shall promptly notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent at any time that it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to the Borrowers (or any other form of certification adopted by the Internal Revenue Service for such purpose).

(f) On or prior to the date any Lender or Issuing Bank becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of any Participant, on or before the date such Participant purchases the related participation), each Lender that is a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) (a “US Lender”) shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent two accurate and complete copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, or any subsequent versions or successors to such form. In addition, each such US Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such US Lender. Each such US Lender shall promptly notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent at any time that it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered Forms to the Borrowers (or any other form of certification developed by the Internal Revenue Service for such purpose).

(g) If the Administrative Agent, any Lender or Issuing Bank determines, in its reasonable discretion, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Borrower or with respect to which a Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.20, it shall reasonably promptly pay over such refund to such Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Borrower under this Section 2.20 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or Issuing Bank 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, such Lender or Issuing Bank agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant governmental authority) to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or Issuing Bank in the event the Administrative Agent, such Lender or Issuing Bank is required to repay such refund to such governmental authority; provided further that the Borrower shall not be required to repay the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank an amount in excess of the amount paid over by such party to such Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.20(g). This Section 2.20 shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to any Borrower or any other Person.

2.21 Optional Reduction and Termination of Commitments.

(a) Unless previously terminated, all Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Commitment Termination Date, except that the Swingline Commitment shall terminate on the Swingline Termination Date. The Term Loan Commitments shall terminate on the Closing Date upon the making of the Term Loans pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(b) Upon at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) from the Company to the Administrative Agent (which notice shall be irrevocable), the Borrowers may reduce the Aggregate Revolving Commitments in part or terminate the Aggregate Revolving Commitments in whole; subject to the payment of the premium, if any, described in Section 2.24, provided, that (i) any partial reduction shall apply to reduce proportionately and permanently the Revolving Commitment of each Revolving Credit Lender, (ii) any partial reduction pursuant to this Section 2.21 shall be in an amount of at least $500,000 and any larger multiple of $100.000, and (iii) no such reduction shall be permitted which would reduce the Aggregate Revolving Commitments, to an amount less than the outstanding Revolving Credit Exposures of all Revolving Credit Lenders, after the application of any payments of the Revolving Loans on such date. Any such reduction in the Aggregate Revolving Commitments shall result in a reduction in the Swingline Commitment to the extent that the Swingline Commitment would exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitments as so reduced.

2.22 Optional Prepayments. The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing, in whole or in part, subject to the payment of the premium, if any, described in Section 2.24, by giving irrevocable written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) to the Administrative Agent no later than (i) in the case of prepayment of any LIBOR Borrowing. 11:00 a.m. (Eastern time) not Less than three (3) Business Days prior to any such prepayment, (ii) in the case of any prepayment of any Base Rate Borrowing or index Rate Borrowing, not less than one Business Day prior to the date of such prepayment, and (iii) in the case of Swingline Borrowings, prior to 11:00 a.m. on the date of such prepayment, provided that no notice shall be required for the prepayment of any Cash Management Swingline Loans, Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the proposed date of such prepayment and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid. Upon receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each affected Lender of the contents thereof and of such Lender’s pro rata share of any such prepayment. If such notice is given, the aggregate amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date designated in such notice, together with accrued interest to such date on the amount so prepaid in accordance with Section 2.12(c): provided, that if a LIBOR Borrowing is prepaid on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrowers shall also pay all amounts required pursuant to Section 2.19. Each partial prepayment of any Loan (other than a Swingline Loan) shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Revolving Loan Borrowing of the same Type pursuant to Section 2.2 or in the case of a Swingline Loan pursuant to Section 2.4. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and in the case of a prepayment of a Term Loan Borrowing, to principal installments in inverse order of maturity.

2.23 Mandatory Prepayments.

(a) Upon the occurrence of any Equity Issuance by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries resulting in Net Cash Proceeds in excess of $100,000, an amount equal to 60% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof shall be applied within ten (10) Business Days of the date of such issuance toward the prepayment of the Term Loans and the Revolving Loans as set forth in Section 2.23(c).

(b) If on any date the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale, Purchase Price Refund or Recovery Event then, unless a Reinvestment Notice shall be delivered in respect thereof (within ten (10) Business Days of such Asset Sale, Purchase Price Refund or Recovery Event), such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied on the 11^th Business Day following such Asset Sale, Purchase Price Refund or Recovery Event toward the prepayment of the Term Loans and the Revolving Loans as set forth in Section 2.23(c); provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds of Asset Sales and Recovery Events that may be excluded from the foregoing requirement pursuant to a Reinvestment Notice shall not exceed $250,000 in any fiscal year of the Company; and (ii) on each Reinvestment Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount with respect to the relevant Reinvestment Event shall be applied toward the prepayment of the Term Loans and the payment of the Revolving Loans as set forth in Section 2.23(c).

(c) Amounts to be applied in connection with prepayments made pursuant to Section 2.23(a) and Section 2.23(b) shall be applied first, to the prepayment of the Term Loans, and second, to the prepayment of the Revolving Loans, but not the reduction of the Revolving Commitments. The application of any prepayment pursuant to this Section shall be made, first, to Base Rate Loans, second, to Index Rate Loans, and, third, to LIBOR Loans. Each prepayment of the Loans under this Section (except in the case of Revolving Credit Loans that are Base Rate Loans and Swing Line Loans) shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid.

(d) To the extent that the aggregate amount of outstanding Borrowing Base Obligations exceeds the Borrowing Base at any time, and upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Borrowers shall pay such excess amount by first prepaying the Revolving Loans, next prepaying amounts paid by the Issuing Bank under the Letters of Credit for which it has not been reimbursed by the Borrowers, and then providing cash collateral for the Letters of Credit, as specified below. In the event that the Borrowers shall be required to provide cash collateral for the Letters of Credit pursuant to the foregoing sentence, the Borrowers shall effect the same by paying to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Bank, immediately available funds in an amount equal to the required amount, which funds shall be retained by the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Bank, in a cash collateral account until the earlier to occur of (1) the date the affected Letters of Credit shall have been terminated or cancelled, and (2) the date the aggregated amount of outstanding Borrowing Base Obligations no longer exceeds the Borrowing Base, at which time the cash collateral shall be paid to the Company.

(e) If the Administrative Agent determines, based on its review of the audited financial statements of the Company for its fiscal year ended on March 31, 2007, that EBITDA

plus the Applicable Add-Backs for such fiscal year was less than $11,500,000, or if such audited financial statements are not delivered to the Administrative Agent within 30 days of the date on which they are due, the Borrowers shall, within 10 Business Days after the Administrative Agent makes a written demand therefor, prepay the Term Loans in an aggregate amount of $2,000,000.

2.24 Prepayment Premium. Each optional or mandatory prepayment in respect of the Loans, including any prepayment upon the acceleration thereof upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, financed directly or indirectly with one or more credit facilities provided by any Person or Persons other than all of the Revolving Credit Lenders and Term Loan Lenders party to this Agreement at the time of such termination or prepayment, shall be accompanied by a prepayment premium equal to 0.20% of the sum of the original Aggregate Revolving Commitments plus the aggregate amount of Term Loans prepaid during the first year following the Closing Date and 0.10% of the sum of the original Aggregate Revolving Commitments plus the amount prepaid during the second and third years following the Closing Date. Any payment of Revolving Loans or Swingline without a corresponding reduction in the Aggregate Revolving Commitments in the ordinary course of business and not financed by such other credit facilities shall not be subject to a prepayment premium.

2.25 Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.

(a) Each Borrowing by the Borrowers from the Lenders hereunder, each payment by the Borrowers on account of any origination fee, Administrative Fee or Letter of Credit, fee (other than the fronting fee and standard fees with respect to issuance, amendment renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder payable solely to the Issuing Bank) and any reduction of the Revolving Commitments of the Lenders shall be made pro rata according to the respective Term Loan Percentages or Revolving Credit Percentages, as the case may be of the relevant Lenders. Each payment (other than prepayments) in respect of principal or interest in respect of the Loan’s and each payment in respect of fees payable hereunder shall be applied to the amounts of such obligations owing to the Lenders pro rata according to the respective amounts then due and owing to the Lenders.

(b) Each mandatory prepayment required by Section 2.23(a) and 2.23(b) to be applied to the Term Loans shall be allocated pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Term Loans. Each optional prepayment in respect of the Term Loans shall be allocated pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Term Loans. Each payment (including each prepayment) of the Term Loans shall be allocated among the Term Loan Lenders holding such Term Loans pro rata based on the principal amount of such Term Loans held by such Term Loan Lenders. Prepayments required by Section 2.23(e) shall be applied ratably to the remaining installments of such Term Loans. All other prepayments shall be applied to the installments of such Term Loans in the inverse order of the scheduled maturities of such installments. Amounts prepaid on account of the Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

(c) Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrowers on account of principal of and interest on the Revolving Credit Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Revolving Credit Loans then held by the Revolving Credit Lenders. Each payment in respect of LC Disbursements in respect of any Letter of Credit shall be made to the Issuing Bank that issued such Letters of Credit.

(d) The Borrowers shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Sections 2.18, 2.19 or 2.20, or otherwise) prior to 12:00 noon (Eastern time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at the Payment Office, except payments to be made directly to the Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.18, 2.19 and 2.20 and 11.3 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be made payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars.

(e) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties.

(f) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans that would result in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary 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 participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans; provided, that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrowers pursuant to

and in accordance with the express Terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, 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 rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of a Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(g) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Company prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank 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 in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be the amount or amounts due. In such event, if the Borrowers have not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank 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 generally accepted banking industry rules on interbank compensation then in effect.

(h) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to this Agreement, then the Administrative Agent may in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.23 or this Section 2.25, each Term Loan Lender may, at its option, decline any mandatory prepayment applicable to the Term Loans of such Lender. Accordingly, with, respect to the amount of any mandatory prepayment described in Section 2.23 that is allocated to Term Loans (such amounts, the “Term Loan Prepayment Amount”), the Borrowers will in the case of any mandatory prepayment required to be made pursuant to Section 2.23 in lieu of applying such amount to the prepayment of the Term Loans, as provided in paragraph Section 2.23(c), on the date specified in Section 2.23 for such mandatory prepayment, give the Administrative Agent telephonic notice (promptly confirmed in writing) requesting that the Administrative Agent prepare and provide to each Term Loan Lender a notice (each, a “Prepayment Option Notice”) as described below. As promptly as practicable after receiving such notice from the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent will send to each Term Loan Lender a Prepayment Option Notice, which shall be in the form of Exhibit 2.25, and shall include an offer by the Borrowers to prepay on the date (each a “Prepayment Date”) that is 10 Business Days after the date of the Prepayment Option Notice, the relevant Term Loans of such Term Loan Lender by an amount equal to the portion of the Term Loan

Prepayment Amount indicated in such Term Loan Lender’s Prepayment Option Notice as being applicable to such Term Loan Lender’s Term Loans. On the Prepayment Date, (i) the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent the aggregate amount necessary to prepay that portion of the outstanding relevant Term Loans in respect of which Term Loan Lenders have accepted prepayment as described above (such Term Loan Lenders, the “Accepting Lenders”), and such amount shall be applied to reduce the Term Loan Prepayment Amounts with respect to each Accepting Lender, (ii) the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to Term Loan Prepayment Amount not accepted by the Accepting Lenders, and such amount shall be applied to the prepayment of the Revolving Loans until paid in full, without any reduction in the Aggregate Revolving Commitments, and (iii) the remaining portion of the Term Loan Prepayment Amount not accepted by the Accepting Lenders shall be returned to the Borrowers.

2.26 Mitigation of Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) Determination of amounts payable under Sections 2.17, 2.18, 2.19 or 2.20 in connection with a LIBOR Borrowing shall be calculated as though each Lender funded its LIBOR Borrowing through the purchase of a deposit of the type and maturity corresponding to the deposit used as a reference in determining the LIBOR applicable to such LIBOR Borrowing whether in fact that is the case or not. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.18, or if the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any governmental authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.20, then, upon the Company’s written request to such Lender, 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, branches or affiliates, if, in the sole judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable under Section 2.18 or Section 2.20, 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. The Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with such designation or assignment requested by the Company.

(b) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.18 or if a Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any governmental authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.20, or if any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder, or if any Lender does not consent to any amendment, waiver or consent to any Loan Document for which the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained but that requires the consent of all Lenders, then the Borrowers may, at their 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 set forth in Section 11.4(b), and the Borrowers shall be obligated to pay the recordation and processing fee referred to therein) all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender); provided, that (i) the Borrowers shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of all Loans owed to it, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (in the case of such outstanding

principal and accrued interest) and from the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts), (iii) in the case of a claim for compensation under Section 2.18 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.20, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments, and (iv) the Borrowers shall be liable to such replaced Lender under Section 2.19 (as though Section 2.19 were applicable) if any LIBOR Loan owing to such replaced Lender shall be purchased other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

Section 3 Security

Each Borrower hereby assigns and pledges to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, and hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, a first priority security interest in all of such Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to the Collateral (subject to Liens permitted by this Agreement or any other Loan Document), whether now owned or hereafter acquired by such Borrower, including all proceeds of any and all of the foregoing or hereinafter-described Collateral (including, without limitation, proceeds that constitute property of the types described herein) and, to the extent not otherwise included, all policies of insurance on any property of such Borrower and all payments and proceeds under any such insurance (whether or not the Administrative Agent is the loss payee thereof, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders), or any indemnity warranty or guaranty payable by reason of loss or damage to or otherwise with respect to any of the foregoing Collateral all cash proceeds of the Collateral; and all books of account and records, including all computer software relating thereto. This Agreement secures the payment of all Obligations of the Borrowers now or hereafter existing or arising. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement secures the payment of all amounts that constitute part of the Obligations and would be owed by each Borrower to the Administrative Agent and any of the Lenders but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving such Borrower. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any Loan Document, (i) no Subsidiary that is a CFC, or that is owned in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, by a Subsidiary that is a CFC, shall be required to pledge any of its assets or otherwise provide any security of any of the Loans or any of the obligations of the Borrowers under any of the Loan Documents, (ii) no Borrower or Subsidiary shall be required to pledge, directly or indirectly, more than 65% of the stock of any CFC, and (iii) no security interest, pledge or assignment shall attach to any Excluded Collateral prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default.

(f) Each Borrower shall have its equipment and inventory insured against loss or damage by fire, theft, burglary, pilferage, loss in transportation and such other hazards as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify, by insurers reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, in amounts reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and under policies containing loss payable clauses satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Any such insurance policies, or certificates or other evidence thereof satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, shall be deposited with the Administrative Agent. Each Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, shall have a security interest in such policies and the proceeds of such policies thereof, and if any loss shall occur during the continuation of an Event of Default, the proceeds relating to the loss or damage of the equipment or inventory may be applied to the payment of the Obligations or to the replacement or restoration of the inventory or equipment damaged or destroyed, as the Administrative Agent may elect or direct. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to file claims under any insurance policies, to receive, receipt and given acquittance for any payments that may be made thereunder, and to execute any and all endorsements, receipts, releases, assignments, reassignments or other documents that may be necessary to effect to the collection, compromise, or settlement of any claims under any of the insurance policies.

Each Borrower agrees to furnish any such information to the Administrative Agent promptly upon request.

(b) Without providing at least 10 days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, no Borrower shall change its name, its type of organization, jurisdiction of organization or other legal structure, its principal place of business or, if more than one, chief executive office, or its mailing address or organizational identification number if it has one. If a Borrower does not have an organizational identification number and later obtains one, such Borrower shall forthwith notify the Administrative Agent of such organizational identification number.

(c) If a Borrower shall at any time hold or acquire any promissory notes or tangible chattel paper as part of the Collateral, such Borrower shall forthwith endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Administrative Agent may from time to time specify, provided that if no Default or Event of Default has occurred, provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to promissory notes and tangible chattel paper with an aggregate face value of not greater than $100,000.

The Administrative Agent agrees with each Borrower that the Administrative Agent shall not give any such instructions or withhold any withdrawal rights from such Borrower, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or, after giving effect to any withdrawal not otherwise permitted by the Loan Documents, would occur. The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to (i) any deposit account for which a Borrower, the depositary bank and the Administrative Agent have entered into a cash collateral agreement specially negotiated among such Borrower, the depositary bank and the Administrative Agent for the specific purpose set forth therein, (ii) deposit accounts for which the Administrative Agent is the depositary, (iii) deposit accounts specially and exclusively used for payroll, payroll taxes and other employee wage and benefit payments to or for the benefit of such Borrower’s salaried employees, (iv) deposit accounts for which such Borrower is acting as an agent to distribute funds other than funds of the Borrower to a third party, and (v) if no Default or Event of Default has occurred, deposit accounts which in the aggregate hold funds not in excess of $100,000.

(e) If a Borrower shall at any time hold or acquire any certificated securities, such Borrower shall, upon the Administrative Agent’s written request therefor, forthwith endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Administrative Agent to be held as Collateral for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Administrative Agent may from time to time specify. If any securities now or hereafter acquired by a Borrower are uncertificated and are issued to such Borrower or its nominee directly by the issuer thereof, that Borrower shall immediately notify the Administrative Agent thereof and, at the Administrative Agent’s request and option, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, cause the issuer to agree to comply during the continuation of an Event of Default with instructions from the Administrative Agent as to such securities, without further consent of such Borrower or such nominee. If any securities, whether certificated or uncertificated, or other investment property now or hereafter acquired by a Borrower are held by such Borrower or its nominee through a securities intermediary or commodity intermediary, such Borrower shall immediately notify the

Administrative Agent thereof and, at the Administrative Agent’s request, pursuant to a securities control agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, cause such securities intermediary or (as the case may be) commodity intermediary to agree to comply during the continuation of an Event of Default with entitlement orders or other instructions from the Administrative Agent to such securities intermediary as to such securities or other investment property, or (as the case may be) to apply any value distributed on account of any commodity contract as directed by the Administrative Agent to such commodity intermediary, in each case without further consent of such Borrower or such nominee. The Administrative Agent agrees with each Borrower that the Administrative Agent shall not give any such entitlement orders or instructions or directions to any such issuer, securities intermediary or commodity intermediary, and shall not withhold its consent to the exercise of any withdrawal or dealing rights by such Borrower, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or, after giving effect to any such investment and withdrawal rights not otherwise permitted by the Loan Documents, would occur. The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to (i) any financial assets credited to a securities account for which the Administrative Agent is the securities intermediary, and (ii) if no Default or Event of Default has occurred, financial assets with an aggregate value not in excess of $100,000.

The Administrative Agent agrees with each Borrower that the Administrative Agent shall not give any such instructions unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur after taking into account any action by such Borrower with respect to the bailee. The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply, if no Default or Event of Default has occurred, to goods with an aggregate book value not in excess of $100,000.

(g) If a Borrower at any time holds or acquires an interest in any electronic chattel paper or any “transferable record,” as that term is defined in Section 201 of the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, or in §16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction, such Borrower shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof and, at the request of the Administrative Agent, shall take such action as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to vest in the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, control, under §9-105 of the Uniform Commercial Code, of such electronic chattel paper or control under Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or, as the case may be, §16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, as so in effect in such jurisdiction, of such transferable record. The Administrative Agent agrees with each Borrower that the Administrative Agent will arrange, pursuant to procedures satisfactory to the Administrative

Agent and so long as such procedures will not result in the Administrative Agent’s loss of control, for such Borrower to make alterations to the electronic chattel paper or transferable record permitted under UCC §9-105 or, as the case may be, Section 201 of the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Xxx xx §00 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act for a party in control to make without loss of control, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur after taking into account any action by such Borrower with respect to such electronic chattel paper or transferable record. The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply, if no Default or Event of Default has occurred, to electronic chattel paper and transferable records with an aggregate book value not in excess of $100,000.

(h) If a Borrower is at any time a beneficiary under a letter of credit now or hereafter issued in favor of such Borrower, that Borrower shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof and, at the request of the Administrative Agent, such Borrower shall, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, arrange for the issuer and any confirmer of such letter of credit to consent to an assignment to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, during the continuation of an Event of Default of the proceeds of any drawing under the letter of credit, with the Administrative Agent agreeing that the proceeds of any drawing under the letter to credit are to be applied to the payment of the Obligations, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, provided that such Borrower shall not be in violation of this requirement if, after such Borrower has exercised reasonably commercial efforts, such issuer refuses to provide such agreement and the Administrative Agent determines that the rights of the Lenders will not be materially impaired thereby. The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply, if no Default or Event of Default has occurred, to letters of credit with an aggregate face value not in excess of $100,000.

(i) If a Borrower shall at any time hold or acquire a commercial tort claim, that Borrower shall immediately notify the Administrative Agent in a writing signed by such Borrower of the brief details thereof and grant to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, in such writing a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply, if no Default or Event of Default has occurred, to commercial tort claims with an aggregate value not in excees of $100,000.

(j) If a Borrower at any time holds any Intellectual Property registered with the Register of Copyrights or the United States Patent and Trademark Office, as applicable, that Borrower shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof, and if required by the Administrative Agent, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Intellectual Property Assignment with respect thereto and shall cause such Intellectual Property Assignment to be recorded in such office. The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply, if no Default or Event of Default has occurred, to Intellectual Property with an aggregate value not in excess of $100,000.

(k) Each Borrower further agrees to take any other action reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to insure the attachment, perfection and first priority of, and the ability of the Administrative Agent to enforce, the Administrative Agent’s security interest in any and all of the Collateral, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, including, without limitation, (1) executing, delivering and, where appropriate, filing financing statements and amendments relating thereto under the Uniform Commercial Code, to the extent, if any, that such Borrower’s signature thereon is required therefor, (2) causing the Administrative Agent’s name to be noted as the Lender on any certificate of title for a titled good if such notation is a condition to attachment, perfection or priority of, or ability of the Administrative Agent to enforce, the Administrative Agent’s security interest in such Collateral, held for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, (3) complying with any provision of any statute, regulation or treaty of the United States as to any Collateral if compliance with such provision is a condition to attachment, perfection or priority of, or ability of the Administrative Agent to enforce, the Administrative Agent’s security interest in such Collateral, held for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, (4) obtaining governmental and other third party consents and approvals, including without limitation any consent of any licensor, lessor or other person obligated on Collateral, (5) obtaining waivers from mortgagees and landlords in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and (6) taking all actions required by any earlier versions of the Uniform Commercial Code or by other law, as applicable in any relevant Uniform Commercial Code jurisdiction, or by other law as applicable in any foreign jurisdiction.

3.5 Power of Attorney. Each Borrower appoints the Administrative Agent and any officer, employee or agent of the Administrative Agent, as the Administrative Agent from time to time may designate, as attorneys-in-fact for a Borrower to perform all actions necessary or desirable in the discretion of the Administrative Agent to enforce its security interest in the Collateral, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, and to exercise such rights and powers as each Borrower might exercise with respect to the Collateral, all at the reasonable cost and expense of the Borrowers. Each Borrower agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor any other such attorney-in-fact will be liable for any acts of omission or commission, nor for any error of judgment or mistake of law or fact, unless such acts were willful and malicious or grossly negligent. This power is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable so long as any Obligations are outstanding. The Administrative Agent agrees that it shall be entitled to exercise its rights under this Section 3.5 only upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default.

3.6 Limitations on Obligations. It is expressly agreed by each Borrower that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each Borrower shall remain liable under each Receivable and contract giving rise to each Receivable to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by each Borrower in accordance with and pursuant to the terms and provisions of each such Receivable and contract. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation or liability under any Receivable or contract by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the assignment of such Receivable or contract to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, or the receipt by the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, of any payment relating to the Receivable pursuant to this Agreement, nor shall the Administrative Agent or any Lender be required or obligated in any manner to perform or fulfill any of the obligations of a Borrower under or pursuant to any Receivable or contract, or to make any payment, or to make any inquiry

9.2 Remedies upon Default. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the following provisions shall be applicable:

(a) The Administrative Agent, at its option, may, and upon the written request of the Required Lenders, shall, terminate the Commitments (whereupon the Commitment of each Lender shall terminate immediately), terminate the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans, and the obligations of the Issuing Bank to issue Letters of Credit, under this Agreement, and to declare all Obligations, whether incurred prior to, contemporaneous with or subsequent to the date of this Agreement, and whether represented in writing or otherwise, immediately due and

payable and may exercise all of rights and remedies of the Lenders against the Borrowers and any Collateral. The Administrative Agent also, at its option, may, and upon the written request of the Required Lenders, shall, require the Borrowers to pay (for the benefit of the Issuing Bank), and the Borrowers agree to pay, to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Issuing Bank) an amount of cash equal to the aggregate amount of the LC Exposure then outstanding, and any amounts paid by the Borrowers shall be held by the Administrative Agent in a cash collateral account, over which the Administrative Agent shall have the exclusive power of withdrawal, for the benefit of the Issuing Bank, as security for the Obligations arising out of the Letters of Credit and the Letter of Credit Agreements.

(b) The Administrative Agent may foreclose its lien and security interest in the Collateral, held for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, in any way permitted by applicable law and shall have, without limitation, the remedies of a secured party under the UCC. The Administrative Agent may enter the premises of any Borrower in compliance with the UCC without legal process and without incurring liability to any Borrower and remove the Collateral to such place or places as the Administrative Agent may deem advisable, or the Administrative Agent may require the Borrowers to assemble the Collateral and make the Collateral available to the Administrative Agent at a convenient place in accordance with the UCC and, with or without having the Collateral at the time or place of sale, the Administrative Agent may, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Collateral whether in its then condition or after further preparation or processing, either at public or private sale or at any broker’s board, in lots or in bulk, for cash or for credit, at any time or place, in one or more sales and upon such terms and conditions as the Administrative Agent may elect. The Administrative Agent shall give not less than ten Business Days’ prior written notice to the Borrowers of the time and place of any public sale of the Collateral or the time after which the Collateral may be sold in a private sale, which each Borrower agrees constitutes commercially reasonable notice. At any such sale the Administrative Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser, subject to the applicable provisions of the UCC.

(c) The Borrowers shall, at the request of the Administrative Agent, notify account debtors and other persons obligated on any of the Collateral of the security interest of the Administrative Agent (held for the ratable benefit of the Lenders) in any account, chattel paper, general intangible, instrument or other Collateral and that payment thereof is to be made directly to the Administrative Agent or to any financial institution designated by the Administrative Agent as the Administrative Agent’s agent therefor, and the Administrative Agent may itself, without notice to or demand upon such Borrower, so notify account debtors and other persons obligated on Collateral. After the making of such a request or the giving of any such notification, such Borrower shall hold any proceeds of collection of accounts, chattel paper, general intangibles, instruments and other Collateral received by such Borrower as trustee for the Administrative Agent without commingling the same with other funds of such Borrower and shall turn the same over to the Administrative Agent in the identical form received, together with any necessary endorsements, or assignments. The Administrative Agent shall apply the proceeds of collection of accounts, chattel paper, general intangibles, instruments and other Collateral received by the Administrative Agent to the Obligations, ratably in favor of the Lenders, such proceeds to be immediately entered after final payment in cash or other immediately available funds of the items giving rise to them.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, after the occurrence of an Event of Default and the declaration of the Obligations to be immediately due and payable in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, all amounts collected or received by the Administrative Agent or any Lender on account of the Obligations or any other amounts outstanding under any of the Loan Documents or in respect of the Collateral shall be paid over or delivered as follows:

(1) FIRST, to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees) of the Administrative Agent in connection with enforcing the rights of the Lenders under the Loan Documents and any advances made by the Administrative Agent with respect to the Collateral pursuant to Section 9.2(h);

(2) SECOND, to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of each of the Lenders in connection with enforcing its respective rights under the Loan Documents or otherwise with respect to the Obligations owing to such Lender (including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) and the reasonable fees of appraisers, investment bankers or other professionals retained by the Administrative Agent to provide services to sell, collect or otherwise dispose of the Collateral;

(3) THIRD, to the payment of all of the Obligations consisting of accrued fees and interest, and including with respect to any Hedging Agreement between any Borrower and any Lender, or any Affiliate of a Lender, any fees, premiums and scheduled periodic payments due under such Hedging Agreement and any interest accrued thereon;

(4) FOURTH, to the payment of the outstanding principal amount of the Obligations and the payment or cash collateralization of the outstanding LC Exposure and including with respect to any Hedging Agreement between any Borrower and any Lender, or any Affiliate of a Lender, any breakage, termination or other payments due under such Hedging Agreement and any interest accrued thereon;

(5) FIFTH, to all other Obligations and other obligations which shall have become due and payable under the Loan Documents or otherwise and not repaid pursuant to clauses “FIRST” through “FOURTH” above;

(6) SIXTH, to all other Debt owing by the Company and its Subsidiaries to the Administrative Agent under corporate credit card arrangements or other bank products; and

(7) SEVENTH, the payment of the surplus, if any, to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

In carrying out the foregoing, (i) amounts received shall be applied in the numerical order provided until exhausted prior to application to the next succeeding category; (ii) each of the Lenders shall receive an amount equal to its pro rata share (based on the proportion that the then outstanding Aggregate Exposure and obligations outstanding under the Hedging Agreements (if any) held by such Lender (and its Affiliates in the case of Hedge Agreement obligations) bears to the aggregate then outstanding Aggregate Exposure and obligations outstanding under the Hedging Agreements between any Borrower and any Lender or any Affiliate of a Lender that are required of amounts available to be applied pursuant to clauses “THIRD” and “FOURTH” above; and (iii) to the extent that any amounts available for distribution pursuant to clause “FOURTH” above are attributable to the issued but undrawn amount of outstanding Letters of Credit, such amounts shall be held by the Administrative Agent in a cash collateral account and applied (A) first, to reimburse the Issuing Bank from time to time for any drawings under such Letters of Credit and (B) then, following the expiration of all Letters of Credit, to all other obligations of the types described in clauses “FOURTH” and “FIFTH” above in the manner provided in this Section.

(e) To the extent that the Obligations are now or hereafter secured by property other than the Collateral described herein or by the Guarantee, endorsement or property of any other Person, the Administrative Agent, at its option, may, and upon the written request of the Required Lenders, shall, proceed against such other Guarantee, endorsement or property upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, and the Administrative Agent shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to determine which rights, security, liens, security interests or remedies the Administrative Agent shall at any time pursue, relinquish, subordinate, modify or take any other action with respect thereto, without in any way modifying or affecting any of them or any of the Administrative Agent’s rights hereunder.

(f) Subject to Section 2.25(f), the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized at any time or from time to time, without prior notice to the Borrowers (any such notice being expressly waived by each Borrower), to setoff and apply any deposit (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) or investment account at any time held, including any certificate of deposit, and other indebtedness at any time owed by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, whether or not any such deposit or indebtedness is then due, to or for the credit or account of any Borrower against any and all of the Obligations. The Administrative Agent shall give written notice of any setoff to the Borrowers.

(g) EACH BORROWER, HAVING KNOWLEDGE THAT IT MAY BE ENTITLED TO NOTICE AND A HEARING PRIOR TO REPOSSESSION OF THE COLLATERAL, WAIVES ANY RIGHT THAT IT MAY HAVE TO NOTICE OF FORECLOSURE, OTHER THAN NOTICES REQUIRED BY THE UCC, TO ANY HEARING THAT MAY BE HELD RELATING TO FORECLOSURE, AND TO ANY NOTICE THAT MAY BE REQUIRED TO BE GIVEN BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER PRIOR TO SUCH HEARING, OTHER THAN THE NOTICES OR HEARINGS REQUIRED BY THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, THE UCC OR ANY OTHER APPLICABLE LAW. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, EACH LENDER AND EACH BORROWER EXPRESSLY WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT.

(h) The Administrative Agent itself may perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, with the obligations of a Borrower contained in this Agreement, including, without limitation, the obligations of each Borrower to defend and insure the Collateral. The expenses of the Administrative Agent incurred in connection with such performance or compliance, together with interest thereon at the Base Rate plus 2%, from the date such expenses are paid until the same are repaid, shall be payable by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent on demand and shall constitute Obligations.

Section 10 The Administrative Agent

10.1 Appointment of Administrative Agent.

(a) Each Lender irrevocably appoints SunTrust Bank as the Administrative Agent and authorizes it to take such actions on such Lender’s behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with all such actions and powers that are reasonably incidental thereto. The Administrative Agent may perform any of its duties hereunder by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Affiliates. The exculpatory provisions set forth in this Section shall apply to any such sub-agent and the Affiliates of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

(b) The Issuing Bank shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith until such time and except for so long as the Administrative Agent may agree at the request of the Required Lenders to act for the Issuing Bank with respect thereto; provided, that the Issuing Bank shall have all the benefits and immunities (i) provided to the Administrative Agent in this Section 10 with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the Issuing Bank in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and the application and agreements for letters of credit pertaining to the Letters of Credit as fully as the term “Administrative Agent” as used in this Section 10 included the Issuing Bank with respect to such acts or omissions and (ii) as additionally provided in this Agreement with respect to the Issuing Bank.

10.2 Nature of Duties of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except those discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the

Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary as otherwise provided herein), and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent will promptly deliver to the Lenders copies of any financial statements and other information required by Section 5.8, default notices or other material notices sent to the Borrowers under the terms of the Loan Documents, and will promptly provide to the Lenders copies of any material notices or other material information received from Borrowers that are not otherwise required to be provided to the Lenders, and the Lenders agree that the Administrative Agent may provide such material notices and other material information to the Lenders by posting it to a secure website to which the Lenders are given access. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary as otherwise provided herein) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the defaulting Borrower or any Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements, or other terms and conditions set forth in any Loan Document, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement or any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

10.3 Lack of Reliance on the Administrative Agent. Each of the Lenders, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each of the Lenders, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking of any action under or based on this Agreement, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

10.4 Certain Rights of the Administrative Agent. If the Administrative Agent shall request instructions from the Required Lenders with respect to any action or actions (including the failure to act) in connection with this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such act, unless and until it shall have received instructions from such Lenders; and the Administrative Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of the Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders where required by the terms of this Agreement.

10.5 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent may also rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for the Borrowers), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts.

10.6 Administrative Agent’s Reimbursement and Indemnification by Lenders. The Lenders agree to reimburse and indemnify the Administrative Agent ratably in proportion to their respective Aggregate Exposure Percentages (or, if the Commitments have been terminated, in proportion to their Aggregate Exposure Percentages immediately prior to such termination) (i) for any amounts not reimbursed by any Borrower for which the Administrative Agent is entitled to reimbursement by the Borrowers under the Loan Documents, (ii) for any other expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders, in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration and enforcement of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, for any expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with any dispute between the Administrative Agent and any Lender or between or among two or more of the Lenders) and (iii) for any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any other document delivered in connection therewith or the transactions contemplated thereby (including, without limitation, for any such amounts incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in connection with any dispute between the Administrative Agent and any Lender or between or among two or more of the Lenders), or the enforcement of any of the terms of the Loan Documents or of any such other documents, provided that (i) no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent any of the foregoing is found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent and (ii) any indemnification required pursuant to Section 11.3 shall, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10.6, be paid by the relevant Lender in accordance with the provisions thereof. The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 10.6 shall survive payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

10.7 The Administrative Agent in its Individual Capacity. The bank serving as the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and any other Loan Document in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise or refrain from exercising the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent; and the terms “Lenders”, “Required Lenders”, “holders of Notes”, or any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent, in its individual capacity. The bank acting as the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with any Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of any Borrower as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder.

10.8 Successor Administrative Agent.

(a) The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving notice thereof to the Lenders and the Company. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent, subject to the approval by the Borrowers provided that no Event of Default shall exist at such time. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed, and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, subject to the approval by the Borrowers provided that no Event of Default shall exist at such time, which shall be a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or any state thereof or a bank which maintains an office in the United States, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000.

(b) Upon the acceptance of its appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If within 45 days after written notice is given of the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation under this Section 10.8 no successor Administrative Agent shall have been appointed and shall have accepted such appointment, then on such 45^th day (i) the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall become effective, (ii) the retiring Administrative Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents and (iii) the Required Lenders shall thereafter perform all duties of the retiring Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided above; provided however, that appropriate arrangements to maintain the effectiveness of the security interests granted herein shall be retaken prior to any such resignation being effective. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Section 10 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent and its representatives and agents in respect of any actions taken or not taken by any of them while it was serving as the Administrative Agent.

10.9 Authorization to Execute other Loan Documents. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute on behalf of all Lenders all Loan Documents other than this Agreement.

10.10 Other Agents. The Arranger shall have no obligations, responsibilities or duties under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document.

11.2 Waiver: Amendments.

(a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or any other Loan Document, and no course of dealing between the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent or any Lender, shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power hereunder or thereunder. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by the Borrowers therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or the issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time.

(b) No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, nor consent to any departure by the Borrowers therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders or the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, that no amendment or waiver shall: (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or unreimbursed LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, or change the method of calculating any of the foregoing, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iii) postpone the date fixed for any payment of any principal of, or interest on, any Loan or unreimbursed LC Disbursement or interest thereon or any fees hereunder or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date for the termination or reduction of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iv) change Section 2.25(e) or 2.25(f), or any other provision hereof relating to pro rata sharing of payments among the Lenders, in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (v) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders which are required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the consent of each Lender; (vi) release any guarantor or limit the liability of any such guarantor under any guaranty agreement without the consent of each Lender, except in connection with a transaction permitted by Section 6.3 or Section 6.7; (vii) except as provided in the Deposit Account Assignment, release Collateral securing any of the Obligations or agree to subordinate any Lien in such Collateral to any other creditor of a Borrower or any Subsidiary without the consent of each Lender, other than Collateral that the Borrowers are entitled to sell or otherwise dispose of pursuant to Section 6.7 and other Collateral with an aggregate value not to exceed $100,000 in any fiscal year of the Company; (viii) reduce the percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders with respect to any Facility without the written consent of all Lenders under such Facility; (ix) change the definition of “Borrowing Base” without the consent of each Lender, or change in any material respect any defined term set forth in the definition of “Borrowing Base;”, (x) amend, modify or waive any condition precedent to any extension of credit under the Revolving Credit Facility set forth in this Agreement (including, without limitation, the waiver of an existing Default or Event of Default required to be waived in order for such extension of credit to be made) without the consent of the Required Revolving Credit Facility Lenders; or (xi) consent to any assignment by any Borrower of its rights or obligations hereunder without the consent of each Lender except in connection with a transaction permitted by Section 6.3, or; provided further, that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights, duties or obligations of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank without the prior written consent of such Person. Each Lender shall reply within ten (10) Business Days after the Administrative Agent’s written request for approval action to be taken by it or any Lenders hereunder, or such lesser time as may be reasonably determined by the

Administrative Agent due to time constraints in the Loan Documents and specified in the request for approval. In the event any Lender fails to reply to a request for approval from the Administrative Agent within fifteen (15) Business Days (or such shorter period of time as may be requested by the Administrative Agent for actions that are reasonably required to preserve or protect the Collateral), such Lender shall be deemed to have approved any matters set forth in the request for approval.

11.3 Expenses: Indemnification.

Except with respect to Taxes, which are addressed in Section 2.20:

(a) The Borrowers shall pay (i) all reasonable, out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent and SunTrust Capital Markets, Inc., including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent and SunTrust Capital Markets, Inc., in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of the Loan Documents and any amendments, modifications or waivers thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of outside counsel and the allocated cost of inside counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or any Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit, in each case to the extent a written invoice has been provided to the Borrowers with respect thereto.

(b) The Borrowers shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Lender and the Issuing Bank, each Affiliate of such Person, and the partners, directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors of such Person and of such Person’s Affiliates (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 any counsel for any Indemnitee), and shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from all fees and time charges and disbursements for attorneys who may be employees of any Indemnitee, incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by a Borrower arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of an investigation, litigation or proceeding arising out of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of

such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials related to the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries operations on or from any property owned or operated by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the operations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by a Borrower, 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 gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by the Borrowers against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the Borrowers have obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in their favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

(c) To the extent that the Borrowers fail to pay any amount required to be paid to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender under clauses (a), (b) or (c) hereof, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be such Lender’s Aggregate Exposure Percentage (determined as of the time that the unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided, that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified payment, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such.

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrowers shall not assert, and hereby waive, any claim against any lndemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to actual or direct damages) arising out of, in connection with or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated therein, any Loan or any Letter of Credit or the use of proceeds thereof.

(e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor.

11.4 Successors and Assigns.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Borrower may assign or transfer any of its rights hereunder, other than in a transaction permitted by Section 6.3, without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by a Borrower without such consent shall be null and void).

(b) Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans, the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure at the time owing to or held by it); provided, that (i) except in the case of an

assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender, the Company and the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of an assignment of all or a portion of a Commitment or any Lender’s obligations in respect of its LC Exposure or Swingline Exposure, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender) must give their prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed if the assignment is to a commercial bank or financial institution), (ii) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment hereunder or an assignment while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the amount of the Commitment of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date an assignment and acceptance agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1,000,000 (unless the Company and the Administrative Agent shall otherwise consent), (iii) 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 and the other Loan Documents with respect to any Commitment and the Loans related thereto, (iv) the assigning Lender and the assignee shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an assignment and acceptance agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, together with a processing and recordation fee payable by the assigning Lender or the assignee (as determined between such Persons) in an amount equal to $3,500, and (v) such assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent all information reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent; provided, that any consent of the Company otherwise required hereunder shall not be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Upon the execution and delivery of the assignment and acceptance agreement and payment by such assignee to the assigning Lender of an amount equal to the purchase price agreed between such Persons, and the granting of the consents required herein, such assignee shall become a party to this Agreement and any other Loan Documents to which such assigning Lender is a party and, to the extent of such interest assigned by such assignment and acceptance agreement, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender shall be released from its obligations hereunder to a corresponding extent (and, in the case of an assignment and acceptance agreement 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 2.18, 2.20 and 11.3 with respect to any period of time during which it was a Lender hereunder). Upon the consummation of any such assignment hereunder, the assigning Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers shall make appropriate arrangements to have new Notes issued if so requested by either or both the assigning Lender or the assignee. Any assignment or other transfer by a Lender that does not fully comply with the terms of this clause (b) shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale of a participation pursuant to clause (c) below.

(c) Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other financial institutions (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment, the Loans owing to it and its LC Exposure): 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 its obligations hereunder, and (iii) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender, the Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Any agreement between such Lender and the Participant with respect to such participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided, that such participation agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver of this Agreement described in the first proviso of Section 11.2(b) that affects the Participant. Each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.18 and 2.20 to the same extent as if it were a Lender hereunder and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b); provided, that no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.18 and 2.20 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant unless the sale of such participation is made with the Company’s prior written consent. To the extent permitted by law, the Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.20 as though it were a Lender, provided, that such Participant agrees to share with the Lenders the proceeds thereof in accordance with Section 2.20 as fully as if it were a Lender hereunder. A Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.20 unless such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with Sections 2.20(e) and 2.20 as though it were a Lender hereunder.

(d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and its Notes (if any) to secure its obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank without complying with this Section; provided, that no such pledge or assignment shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle organized or otherwise formed under the laws of the United States or any State thereof (an “SPV”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, the option to provide to the Borrowers all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement; provided, that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPV to make any Loan (ii) if an SPV elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of any Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof, and (iii) the Granting Lender shall not be released from any of its obligations hereunder and the Borrowers shall be entitled to treat such Granting Lender as a lender for all purposes hereunder. The making of a Loan by an SPV hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPV shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of

this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPV, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPV any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Section 11.4, any SPV may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by the Company and the Administrative Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPV to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPV. As this clause (e) applies to any particular SPV, this Section may not be amended without the written consent of such SPV.

11.5 Governing Law: Jurisdiction: Consent to Service of Process.

(a) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be construed in accordance with and be governed by the law (without giving effect to the conflict of law principles thereof) of the State of New York. EACH LOAN DOCUMENT (OTHER THAN AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN A LOAN DOCUMENT) WILL BE DEEMED TO BE A CONTRACT MADE UNDER AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING FOR SUCH PURPOSES SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK).

(b) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and of any court of the State of New York sitting in New York county and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York state court or, to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against the Borrowers or their respective properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(c) Each Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding described in paragraph (b) of this Section and brought in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto 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.

(d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to the service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 11.1. Nothing in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

(e) The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to have been given and undertaken by the Borrowers jointly and severally.

11.6 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO 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 THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (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 AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

11.7 Right of Setoff. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, each Lender and the Issuing Bank shall have the right, subject to Section 2.25(f), at any time or from time to time upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without prior notice to the Borrowers, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply against all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) of the Borrowers at any time held or other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or the Issuing Bank to or for the credit or the account of the Borrowers against any and all Obligations held by such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, irrespective of whether such Lender or the Issuing Bank shall have made demand hereunder and although such Obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender and the Issuing Bank agree promptly to notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers after any such set-off and any application made by such Lender and the Issuing Bank, as the case may be; provided, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

11.8 Counterparts; Integration. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including by telecopy), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and any separate letter agreement(s)

relating to any fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto and thereto regarding the subject matters hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, regarding such subject matters.

11.9 Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrowers herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.18, 2.19, 2.20, 11.3, 11.11 and Section 9 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. All representations and warranties made herein, in the certificates, reports, notices, and other documents delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the making of the Loans and the issuance of the Letters of Credit.

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

11.11 Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and each Lender agrees to take normal and reasonable precautions to maintain the confidentiality of any information designated in writing as confidential and provided to it by the Borrowers or any Subsidiary, except that such information may be disclosed (i) to any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any such Lender, and their respective accountants, legal counsel and other professional advisors (provided that all such Persons shall have agreed in writing to keep such information confidential in accordance with the terms of this Section), (ii) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (iii) to the extent requested by any regulatory agency or governmental authority having jurisdiction over the disclosing Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender, (iv) to the extent that such information becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section, or which becomes available to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, any Lender or any Affiliate, or their accountants, legal counsel or other professional advisors, of any of the foregoing on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrowers, (v) in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this

Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder, (vi) subject to provisions substantially similar to this Section 11.11, to any actual or prospective assignee or Participant, or (vii) with the prior written consent of the Company. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of any information as provided for 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 its own confidential information.

11.12 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which may be treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively, the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate of interest (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by a Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but nor above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

11.13 Captions. The captions of the various sections and paragraphs of this Agreement have been inserted only for the purposes of convenience; such captions are not a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed in any manner to modify, explain, enlarge or restrict any of the provisions of this Agreement.

11.14 Use of Defined Terms. All terms defined in this Agreement shall have the defined meanings when used in certificates, reports or other documents made or delivered pursuant to this Agreement, unless the context shall otherwise require.

11.15 Accounting Terms. Unless otherwise defined or specified herein, all accounting terms used herein shall be interpreted, all accounting determinations hereunder shall be made, and all financial statements required to be delivered hereunder shall be prepared, in accordance with GAAP as in effect from time to time, applied on a basis consistent (except for such changes approved by the Company’s independent public accountants) with the most recent audited consolidated financial statements of the Company delivered pursuant to Section 5.8(c); provided, that if the Company notifies the Administrative Agent that the Company wishes to amend any covenant in Section 7 to eliminate the effect of any change in GAAP on the operation of such covenant (or if the Administrative Agent notifies the Company that the Required Lenders wish to amend Section 7 for such purpose), then the Company’s compliance with such covenant shall be determined on the basis of GAAP in effect immediately before the relevant change in GAAP became effective, until either such notice is withdrawn or such covenant is amended in a manner satisfactory to the Company the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders.

11.16 USA PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Lender that is subject to the Act (as hereinafter defined) and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the 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 the Borrowers, which information includes the name and address of the Borrowers and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrowers in accordance with the Patriot Act, and each Borrower hereby agrees to provide the Administrative Agent and each Lender with all information necessary in order for the Administrative Agent and each Lender to comply with the Patriot Act.

11.17 Right of First Refusal. Each Borrower hereby agrees that if at any time any Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of any Borrower (a “Borrower Entity”) receives from a third party an offer, term sheet or commitment, or any Borrower Entity makes a proposal substantially acceptable to or accepted by any Person (all of the foregoing being referred to as an “Offer”), which Offer provides for more than $250,000 of permanent financing, long term financing, short term financing, cash flow financing, working capital financing, accounts receivable financing, real estate financing, inventory or equipment financing, financing secured in whole or in part by assets (tangible or intangible) or personal property of any Borrower Entity, or sale/leaseback financing, the applicable Borrower Entity shall first forward the Offer to the Administrative Agent, which shall have fifteen (15) days after receipt thereof (the “Option Period”) to agree to provide similar financing in the place of such Person upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer and to notify the applicable Borrower Entity in writing of the Administrative Agent’s acceptance of the Offer (the “Acceptance Notice”). If the Borrower Entity has not received an Acceptance Notice within the Option Period, the Borrower Entity shall be free to consummate the transaction described in the Offer with the third party providing the Offer (the “Transaction”); provided, however, that the foregoing, and Administrative Agent’s failure to respond to issue an Acceptance Notice, shall not be construed as a waiver of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of the Loan Documents. In the event that the Transaction is not consummated under similar terms with such Person during the ninety (90) day period following the expiration of the Option Period, or any material term is changed, the applicable Borrower Entity shall not be permitted to consummate the Transaction without again complying with this Section.

COLLATERAL ASSIGNMENT, PATENT MORTGAGE

AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

This Collateral Assignment, Patent Mortgage and Security Agreement (the “Assignment”) dated as of the day of , 200[ ], from , a (“Assignor”), in favor of SUNTRUST BANK, a Georgia banking corporation (“Assignee”), as administrative agent for the Lenders (as such term is defined in the Loan Agreement).

RECITALS

The Lenders and Assignee (as the Administrative Agent for the Lenders) have entered into a Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of February 9, 2007 (as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “Loan Agreement,” the capitalized terms defined therein and not otherwise defined herein being used herein as therein defined) with Assignor and each other Subsidiary that enters into an Assumption Agreement, thereby becoming a Borrower under the Loan Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof, and, by its execution and delivery hereof, an Assignor. It is a condition precedent to the making of the Loans and the issuance of Letters of Credit by Assignee, the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, under the Loan Agreement that Assignor shall have assigned certain property to Assignee (for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank) in accordance with this Assignment.

NOW, THEREFORE, FOR VALUABLE CONSIDERATION, THE RECEIPT AND SUFFICIENCY OF WHICH ARE ACKNOWLEDGED, THE PARTIES HERETO AGREE AS FOLLOWS:

1. Assignment, Patent Mortgage and Grant of Security Interest. As collateral security for the prompt and complete payment and performance of the Obligations, Assignor hereby assigns, transfers, conveys and grants a security interest and mortgage to Assignee, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, as security, but not as an ownership interest, in and to its entire right, title and interest in, to and under the following (all of which shall collectively be called the “Collateral”):

(a) All present and future United States copyright registrations owned by Assignor, including, without limitation, the registered copyrights listed in Exhibit A-1 to this Assignment, as amended and supplemented from time to time (and including all of the exclusive rights afforded a copyright registrant in the United States under 17 U.S.C. §106 and any exclusive rights owned by Assignor which may in the future arise by act of Congress or otherwise) (collectively, the “Registered Copyrights”), and any and all royalties, payments, and other amounts payable to Assignor in connection with the Registered Copyrights, together with all renewals and extensions of the Registered Copyrights, Assignor’s right to recover for all past, present, and future infringements of the Registered Copyrights, and all Assignor’s computer programs, computer databases, computer program flow diagrams, source codes, object codes and all tangible property embodying or incorporating the Registered Copyrights, and all other rights of every kind whatsoever owned by Assignor accruing thereunder or pertaining thereto;

(b) All present and future accounts, accounts receivable and other rights to payment arising from, in connection with or relating to the Copyrights;

(c) All registered patents and like protections owned by Assignor including, without limitation, improvements, divisions, continuations, renewals, reissues, extensions and continuations-in-part of the same, including without limitation the patents set forth on Exhibit B attached hereto as amended and supplemented from time to time (collectively, the “Patents”), and any and all royalties, payments, and other amounts payable to Assignor in connection with the Patents, together with all renewals and extensions of the Patents, the right of Assignor to recover for all past, present, and future infringements of the Patents, and all computer programs, computer databases, computer program flow diagrams, source codes, object codes and all tangible property of Assignor embodying or incorporating the Patents, and all other rights of every kind whatsoever accruing thereunder or pertaining thereto;

(d) Any federally registered trademark and servicemark rights owned by Assignor and the entire goodwill of the business of Assignor connected with and symbolized by such trademarks, including without limitation those set forth on Exhibit C attached hereto, as amended, and supplemented from time to time (collectively, the “Trademarks”), and any and all royalties, payments, and other amounts payable to Assignor in connection with the Trademarks, together with all renewals and extensions of the Trademarks, and the right of Assignor to recover for all past, present, and future infringements of the Trademarks;

(e) Any and all claims of Assignor for damages by way of past, present, and future infringements of any of the Copyrights, Patents and Trademarks included above, with the right, but not the obligation, to xxx for and collect such damages for said use or infringement of the intellectual property rights of Assignor identified above;

(f) Assignor’s interest in all licenses or other rights granted by Assignor to use any of the Copyrights, Patents or Trademarks, and all license fees and royalties owing to Assignor arising from such use to the extent permitted by such license or rights;

(g) All amendments, extensions, renewals and extensions of any of the Copyrights, Trademarks or Patents; and

(h) All proceeds and products of the foregoing, including without limitation all payments under insurance or any indemnity or warranty payable in respect of any of the foregoing.

THE INTEREST IN THE COLLATERAL BEING ASSIGNED HEREUNDER SHALL NOT BE CONSTRUED AS A CURRENT ASSIGNMENT, BUT AS A CONTINGENT ASSIGNMENT TO SECURE ASSIGNOR’S OBLIGATIONS TO ASSIGNEE, THE LENDERS AND THE ISSUING BANK.

This Assignment secures the payment of all of the Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Assignment secures the payment of all amounts that constitute part of the Obligations and would be owed by Assignor to Assignee, the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving Assignor.

2. Authorization and Request. Assignor authorizes and requests that the Register of Copyrights and the Commissioner of Patents and Trademarks record this conditional assignment.

3. Covenants and Warranties. Assignor represents, warrants, covenants and agrees as follows:

(a) As of the date hereof, the Assignor does not own or hold any registered copyrights, patents or trademarks, other than as listed on Exhibits A, B and C attached hereto and other than such Intellectual Property that has not been used by the Borrowers in the past 12 months or from which no revenue in excess of $100,000 has been derived in the past 12 months.

(b) This Assignment creates, and in the case of after acquired Collateral, this Assignment will create at the time Assignor first has rights in such after acquired Collateral, in favor of Assignee, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, a valid and perfected first priority security interest in the Collateral in the United States securing the payment and performance of the Obligations upon making the filings referred to in Section 5(a) below.

4. Inspection Rights. Assignor hereby grants to Assignee rights of inspection with respect to the Collateral, as more particularly set forth in Section 5.7 of the Loan Agreement.

5. Further Assurances; Attorney in Fact. Assignor represents, warrants, covenants and agrees, as follows:

(a) Assignor will make, execute, acknowledge and deliver, and file and record in the proper filing and recording places in the United States, all such instruments, including, appropriate financing and continuation statements and collateral agreements and filings with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the Register of Copyrights, and take all such action as may reasonably be deemed necessary or advisable, or as requested by Assignee, to perfect Assignee’s security interest (held for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank) in all Copyrights, Patents and Trademarks and otherwise to carry out the intent and purposes of this Assignment, or for assuring and confirming to Assignee (for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank) the grant or perfection of a security interest in all Collateral.

(b) Upon an Event of Default, Assignor hereby irrevocably appoints Assignee as its attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of Assignor and in the name of Assignor, Assignee or otherwise, from time to time in Assignee’s discretion, upon Assignor’s failure or inability to do so, to take any action and to execute any instrument which Assignee may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Assignment, including:

(i) To modify, in its sole discretion, this Assignment without first obtaining Assignor’s approval of or signature to such modification by amending Exhibit A, Exhibit B and Exhibit C, thereof, as appropriate, to include reference to any right, title or interest in any Copyrights, Patents or Trademarks acquired by Assignor after the execution hereof or to delete any reference to any right, title or interest in any Copyrights, Patents or Trademarks in which Assignor no longer has or claims any right, title or interest; and

(ii) To file, in its sole discretion, one or more financing or continuation statements and amendments thereto, relative to any of the Collateral without the signature of Assignor where permitted by law.

6. Remedies. Upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement, Assignee shall have the right to exercise, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, all the remedies of a secured party under the UCC, including, without limitation, the right to:

(a) Require Assignor to assemble any tangible property in which the Collateral is embodied and in which Assignor has a security interest, held for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, and to make it available to Assignee at a place designated by Assignee;

(b) Exercise any and all rights as beneficial and legal owner of the Collateral (for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank), including, without limitation, any and all consensual rights and powers with respect to the Collateral, and

(c) Without limiting the foregoing paragraphs (a) or (b), the Assignee shall have the right, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, to sell or assign or grant a license to use, or cause to be sold or assigned or grant a license to use any or all of the Collateral or any part thereof, in each case, free of all rights and claims of Assignor therein and thereto, except to the extent such actions would violate restrictions against assignments contained in any Collateral in which Assignor’s rights arise by contract or license. In that connection, Assignee shall have the right to cause any or all of the Collateral to be transferred of record into the name of Assignee or its nominee (for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank) and the right to impose (i) such limitations and restrictions on the sale or assignment of the Collateral as Assignee may deem to be necessary or appropriate to comply with any law, rule or regulation having applicability to such sale or assignment and (ii) requirements for any necessary governmental approvals. To the extent not inconsistent with any license or contract under which Assignor’s rights arise, Assignee (for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank) shall have a nonexclusive, royalty-free license to use the Copyrights, Patents and Trademarks to the extent reasonably necessary to permit Assignee to exercise its rights and remedies (for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank) upon the occurrence of an Event of Default. Assignor will pay any expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) incurred by Assignee in connection with the exercise of any of Assignee’s rights hereunder, including without limitation any expense incurred in disposing of the Collateral. All of Assignee’s rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral shall be cumulative.

7. Release. At such time as Assignors shall completely satisfy all of the Obligations, Assignee shall execute and deliver to Assignors all assignments and other instruments as may be reasonably necessary or proper to terminate Assignee’s security interest (held for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank) and any conditional assignment in the Collateral, subject to any disposition of the Collateral which may have been made by Assignee (for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank) pursuant to this Assignment. For the purpose of this Assignment, the Obligations shall be deemed to continue if any Assignor enters into any bankruptcy or similar proceeding at a time when any amount paid to Assignee could be ordered to be repaid as a preference or pursuant to a similar theory, and shall continue until it is finally determined that no such repayment can be ordered.

8. No Waiver. No course of dealing between any Assignor and Assignee, nor any failure to exercise nor any delay in exercising, on the part of Assignee, any right, power, or privilege under this Assignment or under the Loan Agreement or any other agreement, shall operate as a waiver. No single or partial exercise of any right, power, or privilege under this Assignment or under the Loan Agreement or any other agreement by Assignee shall preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power, or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power, or privilege by Assignee.

9. Rights Are Cumulative. All of Assignee’s rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral whether established by this Assignment, the Loan Agreement, or any other documents or agreements, or by law shall be cumulative and may be exercised concurrently or in any order.

10. Course of Dealing. No course of dealing, nor any failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof.

11. Attorneys’ Fees. If any action relating to this Assignment is brought by either party hereto against the other party, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys fees, costs and disbursements.

12. Amendments. This Assignment may be amended only by a written instrument signed by both parties hereto. To the extent that any provision of this Assignment conflicts with any provision of the Loan Agreement, the provision giving Assignee greater rights or remedies shall govern, it being understood that the purpose of this Assignment is to add to, and not detract from, the rights granted to Assignee under the Loan Agreement. This Assignment, the Loan Agreement, and the documents relating thereto comprise the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the matters addressed in this Assignment.

13. Severability. The provisions of this Assignment are severable. If any provision of this Assignment is held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, then such invalidity or unenforceability shall affect only such provision, or part thereof, in such jurisdiction, and shall not in any manner affect such provision or part thereof in any other jurisdiction, or any other provision of this Assignment in any jurisdiction.

14. Counterparts. This Assignment may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute the same instrument.

15. Governing Law and Jurisdiction. This Assignment shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard for choice of law provisions. Assignor and Assignee consent to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court located in New York.

16. Confidentiality. In handling any confidential information, Assignee (and its agents) hereby expressly agree to maintain the confidentiality of such information in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.11 of the Loan Agreement.

17. WAIVER OF RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL. ASSIGNEE AND ASSIGNOR EACH HEREBY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF, OR IN ANY WAY RELATING TO: (a) THIS ASSIGNMENT; OR (b) ANY OTHER PRESENT OR FUTURE INSTRUMENT OR AGREEMENT BETWEEN ASSIGNEE AND ASSIGNOR; OR (c) ANY CONDUCT, ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF ASSIGNEE OR ASSIGNOR OR ANY OF THEIR DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, ATTORNEYS OR ANY OTHER PERSONS AFFILIATED WITH ASSIGNEE OR ASSIGNOR; IN EACH OF THE FOREGOING CASES, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE.
