     (b) In order to make a Borrowing (other than (w) Borrowings of Swingline Loans, which shall be made pursuant to Section 2.2(d), (x) Borrowings for the purpose of repaying Refunded Swingline Loans, which shall be made pursuant to Section 2.2(e), (y) Borrowings involving continuations or conversions of outstanding Loans, which shall be made pursuant to Section 2.11 or (z) Borrowings for the purpose of paying unpaid Reimbursement Obligations, which shall be made pursuant to Section 3.5), the Borrower will give the Administrative Agent written notice not later than 11:00 a.m., Charlotte time, three Business Days prior to each Borrowing to be comprised of LIBOR Loans and one Business Day prior to each Borrowing to be comprised of Base Rate Loans; provided, however, that requests for the Borrowing of Revolving Loans to be made on the Closing Date may, at the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be given with less advance notice than as specified hereinabove. Each such notice (each, a “Notice of Borrowing”) shall be irrevocable, shall be given in the form of Exhibit B-1 and shall specify (1) the aggregate principal amount, Class and initial Type of the Loans to be made pursuant to such Borrowing, (2) in the case of a Borrowing of LIBOR Loans, the initial Interest Period to be

25

applicable thereto, and (3) the requested Borrowing Date, which shall be a Business Day. Upon its receipt of a Notice of Borrowing, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each applicable Lender of the proposed Borrowing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein:

     (i) the aggregate principal amount of each Borrowing comprised of Base Rate Loans shall not be less than $1,000,000 or, if greater, an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof (or, if less, in the amount of the aggregate Commitments less the Aggregate Credit Exposure), and the aggregate principal amount of each Borrowing comprised of LIBOR Loans shall not be less than $2,000,000 or, if greater, an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof;

     (ii) if the Borrower shall have failed to designate the Type of Loans comprising a Borrowing, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing comprised of Base Rate Loans; and

     (iii) if the Borrower shall have failed to select the duration of the Interest Period to be applicable to any Borrowing of LIBOR Loans, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period with a duration of one month.

     (c) Not later than 1:00 p.m., Charlotte time, on the requested Borrowing Date, each applicable Lender will make available to the Administrative Agent at the Payment Office an amount, in Dollars and in immediately available funds, equal to the amount of the Loan or Loans to be made by such Lender. To the extent such Lenders have made such amounts available to the Administrative Agent as provided hereinabove, the Administrative Agent will make the aggregate of such amounts available to the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.3(a) and in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent.

     (d) In order to make a Borrowing of a Swingline Loan, the Borrower will give the Administrative Agent (and the Swingline Lender, if the Swingline Lender is not also the Administrative Agent) written notice not later than 11:00 a.m., Charlotte time, on the date of such Borrowing. Each such notice (each, a “Notice of Swingline Borrowing”) shall be given in the form of Exhibit B-2, shall be irrevocable and shall specify (i) the principal amount of the Swingline Loan to be made pursuant to such Borrowing (which shall not be less than $500,000 and, if greater, shall be in an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof (or, if less, in the amount of the Unutilized Swingline Commitment)) and (ii) the requested Borrowing Date, which shall be a Business Day. Not later than 1:00 p.m., Charlotte time, on the requested Borrowing Date, the Swingline Lender will make available to the Administrative Agent at the Payment Office an amount, in Dollars and in immediately available funds, equal to the amount of the requested Swingline Loan. To the extent the Swingline Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent as provided hereinabove, the Administrative Agent will make such amount available to the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.3(a) and in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent.

     (e) With respect to any outstanding Swingline Loans, the Swingline Lender may at any time (whether or not an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) in its sole and absolute discretion, and is hereby authorized and empowered by the Borrower to, cause a Borrowing of Revolving Loans to be made for the purpose of repaying such Swingline Loans by delivering to the Administrative Agent (if the Administrative Agent is not also the Swingline Lender) and each other Lender (on behalf of, and with a copy to, the Borrower), not later than 11:00 a.m., Charlotte time, one Business Day prior to the proposed Borrowing Date therefor, a notice (which shall be deemed to be a Notice of Borrowing given by the Borrower) requesting the Lenders to make Revolving Loans (which shall be made initially as Base Rate Loans) on such Borrowing Date in an aggregate amount equal to the amount of such Swingline Loans (the “Refunded Swingline Loans”) outstanding on the date such notice is given that the Swingline Lender requests to be repaid. Not later than 1:00 p.m., Charlotte time, on the requested Borrowing Date,

26

each Lender (other than the Swingline Lender) will make available to the Administrative Agent at the Payment Office an amount, in Dollars and in immediately available funds, equal to the amount of the Revolving Loan to be made by such Lender. To the extent the Lenders have made such amounts available to the Administrative Agent as provided hereinabove, the Administrative Agent will make the aggregate of such amounts available to the Swingline Lender in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent, which shall apply such amounts in repayment of the Refunded Swingline Loans. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, on the relevant Borrowing Date, the Refunded Swingline Loans (including the Swingline Lender’s ratable share thereof, in its capacity as a Lender) shall be deemed to be repaid with the proceeds of the Revolving Loans made as provided above (including a Revolving Loan deemed to have been made by the Swingline Lender), and such Refunded Swingline Loans deemed to be so repaid shall no longer be outstanding as Swingline Loans but shall be outstanding as Revolving Loans. If any portion of any such amount repaid (or deemed to be repaid) to the Swingline Lender shall be recovered by or on behalf of the Borrower from the Swingline Lender in any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding or otherwise, the loss of the amount so recovered shall be shared ratably among all the Lenders in the manner contemplated by Section 2.15(b).

     (f) If, as a result of any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding with respect to the Borrower, Revolving Loans are not made pursuant to Section 2.2(e) in an amount sufficient to repay any amounts owed to the Swingline Lender in respect of any outstanding Swingline Loans, or if the Swingline Lender is otherwise precluded for any reason from giving a notice on behalf of the Borrower as provided for hereinabove, the Swingline Lender shall be deemed to have sold without recourse, representation or warranty (except for the absence of Liens thereon created, incurred or suffered to exist by, through or under the Swingline Lender), and each Lender shall be deemed to have purchased and hereby agrees to purchase, a participation in such outstanding Swingline Loans in an amount equal to its ratable share (based on the proportion that its Commitment bears to the aggregate Commitments at such time) of the unpaid amount thereof together with accrued interest thereon. Upon one Business Day’s prior notice from the Swingline Lender, each Lender (other than the Swingline Lender) will make available to the Administrative Agent at the Payment Office an amount, in Dollars and in immediately available funds, equal to its respective participation. To the extent the Lenders have made such amounts available to the Administrative Agent as provided hereinabove, the Administrative Agent will make the aggregate of such amounts available to the Swingline Lender in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent. In the event any such Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent the amount of such Lender’s participation as provided in this Section 2.2(f), the Swingline Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender, together with interest thereon for each day from the date such amount is required to be made available for the account of the Swingline Lender until the date such amount is made available to the Swingline Lender at the Federal Funds Rate for the first three Business Days and thereafter at the Adjusted Base Rate applicable to Revolving Loans. Promptly following its receipt of any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower in respect of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender will pay to each Lender that has acquired a participation therein such Lender’s ratable share of such payment.

     (g) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the obligation of each Lender (other than the Swingline Lender) to make Revolving Loans for the purpose of repaying any Refunded Swingline Loans pursuant to Section 2.2(e) and each such Lender’s obligation to purchase a participation in any unpaid Swingline Loans pursuant to Section 2.2(f) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance or event whatsoever, including, without limitation, (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender may have against the Swingline Lender, the Administrative Agent, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of any Default or Event of Default, (iii) the failure of the amount of such Borrowing of Revolving Loans to meet the minimum Borrowing amount specified in

27

Section 2.2(b), or (iv) the failure of any conditions set forth in Section 4.2 or elsewhere herein to be satisfied.

     2.3 Disbursements; Funding Reliance; Domicile of Loans.

     (a) The Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to disburse the proceeds of each Borrowing in accordance with the terms of any written instructions from any Authorized Officer of the Borrower, provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be obligated under any circumstances to forward amounts to any account not listed in an Account Designation Letter. The Borrower may at any time deliver to the Administrative Agent an Account Designation Letter listing any additional accounts or deleting any accounts listed in a previous Account Designation Letter.

     (b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.2 or Section 3.5 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the Adjusted Base Rate. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

     (c) The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 11.1(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any such payment on any date shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation, if any, hereunder to do so on such date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan, fund its participation or to make any such payment required hereunder.

     (d) Subject to Section 2.9(b), each Lender may, at its option, make and maintain any Loan at, to or for the account of any of its Lending Offices, provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan to or for the account of such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

     2.4 Evidence of Debt; Notes.

     (a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to the applicable Lending Office of such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lending Office of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lending Office of such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.

28

     (b) The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register pursuant to Section 11.6(c), and a subaccount for each Lender, in which Register and subaccounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the amount of each such Loan, the Class and Type of each such Loan and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder in respect of each such Loan and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower in respect of each such Loan and each Lender’s share thereof.

     (c) The entries made in the accounts, Register and subaccounts maintained pursuant to Section 2.4(b) (and, if consistent with the entries of the Administrative Agent, Section 2.4(a)) shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such account, such Register or such subaccount, as applicable, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans made to the Borrower by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

     (d) The Loans of each Class made by each Lender shall, if requested by the applicable Lender (which request shall be made to the Administrative Agent), be evidenced (i) in the case of Revolving Loans, by a Revolving Note appropriately completed in substantially the form of Exhibit A-1 and (ii) in the case of Swingline Loans, by a Swingline Note appropriately completed in substantially the form of Exhibit A-2, in each case executed by the Borrower and payable to the order of such Lender. Each Note shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and shall be subject to the provisions hereof and thereof. At the Borrower’s option, the Borrower may execute and deliver any Note in the State of North Carolina.

     2.5 Termination and Reduction of Commitments and Swingline Commitment.

     (a) The Commitments shall be automatically and permanently terminated on the Termination Date, unless sooner terminated pursuant to any other provision of this Section 2.5 or Section 9.2. The Swingline Commitment shall be automatically and permanently terminated on the Swingline Maturity Date, unless sooner terminated pursuant to any other provision of this Section 2.5 or Section 9.2.

     (b) At any time and from time to time after the date hereof, upon not less than five Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent (and in the case of a termination or reduction of the Unutilized Swingline Commitment, the Swingline Lender), the Borrower may terminate in whole or reduce in part the aggregate Unutilized Commitments or the Unutilized Swingline Commitment, provided that any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than $2,000,000 ($500,000 in the case of the Unutilized Swingline Commitment) or, if greater, an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof ($100,000 in the case of the Unutilized Swingline Commitment). The amount of any termination or reduction made under this Section 2.5(a) may not thereafter be reinstated.

     (c) Each reduction of the Commitments pursuant to this section shall be applied ratably among the Lenders according to their respective Commitments. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any reduction of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.5 that has the effect of reducing the aggregate Commitments to an amount less than the amount of the Swingline Commitment or the Letter of Credit Subcommitment at such time shall result in an automatic corresponding reduction of the Swingline Commitment or the Letter of Credit Subcommitment, to the amount of the aggregate Commitments (as so reduced), without any further action on the part of the Borrower, the Swingline Lender or any other Lender.

29

     2.6 Mandatory Payments and Prepayments.

     (a) Except to the extent due or paid sooner pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, (i) the aggregate outstanding principal of the Revolving Loans shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date and (ii) the aggregate outstanding principal of the Swingline Loans shall be due and payable in full on the Swingline Maturity Date.

     (b) In the event that, at any time, the Aggregate Credit Exposure (excluding the aggregate amount of any Swingline Loans to be repaid with proceeds of Revolving Loans made on the date of determination) shall exceed the aggregate Commitments (after giving effect to any concurrent termination or reduction thereof) or the Maximum Availability at such time, the Borrower will immediately prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Swingline Loans and, to the extent of any excess remaining after prepayment in full of outstanding Swingline Loans, the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans, in the amount of such excess, provided that, to the extent such excess amount is greater than the aggregate principal amount of Swingline Loans and Revolving Loans outstanding immediately prior to the application of such prepayment, the amount so prepaid shall be retained by the Administrative Agent and held in the Cash Collateral Account as cover for Letter of Credit Exposure, as more particularly described in Section 3.8, and thereupon such cash shall be deemed to reduce the aggregate Letter of Credit Exposure by an equivalent amount.

     (c) Not later than 180 days after receipt by any Credit Party of any proceeds of insurance, condemnation award or other compensation in respect of any Casualty Event (or, if earlier, upon its determination not to repair or replace any property subject to such Casualty Event or to acquire assets used or useable in the business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries), other than any Casualty Event with Net Cash Proceeds less than $1,000,000, the Borrower will prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Loans in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds from such Casualty Event (less any amounts theretofore applied (or contractually committed to be applied) to the repair or replacement of property subject to such Casualty Event or to acquire assets used or useable in the business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries) and will deliver to the Administrative Agent, concurrently with such prepayment, a certificate signed by a Financial Officer of the Borrower in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and setting forth the calculation of such Net Cash Proceeds; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) except as otherwise provided in this Agreement (including in clause (ii) below) or in any other Credit Document, the Administrative Agent shall turn over to the Borrower any such proceeds received during such 180-day period (unless the Borrower has, prior to the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such proceeds, notified the Administrative Agent of its determination not to repair or replace the property subject to the applicable Casualty Event or to acquire assets used or useable in the business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries), but nothing in this Section 2.6(c) shall be deemed to limit or otherwise affect any right of the Administrative Agent herein or in any of the other Credit Documents to receive and hold such proceeds as loss payee and to disburse the same to the Borrower upon the terms hereof or thereof, or any obligation of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries herein or in any of the other Credit Documents to remit any such proceeds to the Administrative Agent upon its receipt thereof, and (ii) any and all such proceeds received or held by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries during the continuance of an Event of Default (regardless of any proposed or actual use thereof for repair, replacement or reinvestment) may, at the option of the Administrative Agent (or as otherwise directed by the Required Lenders) be applied to prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Loans.

     (d) Not later than 180 days after receipt by any Credit Party of proceeds in respect of any Asset Disposition other than an Excluded Asset Disposition (or, if earlier, upon its determination not to apply such proceeds to the acquisition of assets used or useable in the business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries), the Borrower will prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Loans in an amount equal

30

to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds from such Asset Disposition (less any amounts theretofore applied (or contractually committed to be applied) to acquire assets used or useable in the business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries) and will deliver to the Administrative Agent, concurrently with such prepayment, a certificate signed by a Financial Officer of the Borrower in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and setting forth the calculation of such Net Cash Proceeds; provided, however, that any such Net Cash Proceeds not applied (or contractually committed to be applied) within 180 days to the acquisition of other assets as provided herein shall be applied by the Borrower as a prepayment of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans no later than the first Business Day immediately following such 180-day period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 2.6(d) shall be deemed to permit any Asset Disposition not expressly permitted under Section 8.4.

     (e) Each prepayment of the Loans made pursuant to Sections 2.6(c) and Section 2.6(d) shall be applied (i) first, to reduce the outstanding principal amount of the Swingline Loans (with a corresponding permanent reduction of the Commitments), (ii) second, to reduce the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans (with a corresponding permanent reduction of the Commitments) and (iii) third, to the extent of any excess remaining after application as provided in clauses (i) above, to pay any outstanding Reimbursement Obligations and, to the extent of any excess remaining, to cash collateralize Letter of Credit Exposure. Within each Class of Loans, such prepayments shall be applied first to prepay all Base Rate Loans, and then to prepay LIBOR Loans in direct order of Interest Period maturities. Each payment or prepayment pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.6 shall be applied ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans being prepaid, in proportion to the principal amount held by each, provided that if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender at the time of any such prepayment, any mandatory prepayment of the Loans shall, if the Administrative Agent so directs at the time of making such mandatory prepayment, be applied to the Loans of other Lenders as if such Defaulting Lender had no Loans outstanding and the outstanding Loans of such Defaulting Lender were zero. Each payment or prepayment of a LIBOR Loan made pursuant to the provisions of this Section on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto shall be made together with all amounts required under Section 2.18 to be paid as a consequence thereof.

     (f) In the event the Administrative Agent receives a notice of prepayment with respect to Sections 2.6(c) through 2.6(d), the Administrative Agent will give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders; provided that if such notice has also been furnished to the Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to notify the Lenders with respect thereto.

     2.7 Voluntary Prepayments.

     (a) At any time and from time to time, the Borrower shall have the right to prepay the Loans, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty (except as provided in clause (iii) below), upon written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., Charlotte time, three Business Days prior to each intended prepayment of LIBOR Loans and one Business Day prior to each intended prepayment of Base Rate Loans (other than Swingline Loans, which may be prepaid on a same-day basis), provided that (i) each partial prepayment of LIBOR Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of not less than $2,000,000 or, if greater, an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof ($500,000 and $100,000, respectively, in the case of Swingline Loans), and each partial prepayment of Base Rate Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of not less than $1,000,000 or, if greater, an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof, (ii) no partial prepayment of LIBOR Loans made pursuant to any single Borrowing shall reduce the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the remaining LIBOR Loans under such Borrowing to less than $2,000,000 or to any greater amount not an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, and (iii) unless made together with all amounts required under Section 2.18 to be paid as a consequence of such prepayment, a prepayment of a LIBOR Loan may be made only on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto. Each such notice shall specify the

31

proposed date of such prepayment and the aggregate principal amount, Class and Type of the Loans to be prepaid (and, in the case of LIBOR Loans, the Interest Period of the Borrowing pursuant to which made), and shall be irrevocable and shall bind the Borrower to make such prepayment on the terms specified therein. Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans prepaid pursuant to this Section 2.7(a) may be reborrowed, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. In the event the Administrative Agent receives a notice of prepayment under this Section, the Administrative Agent will give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders; provided that if such notice has also been furnished to the Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to notify the Lenders with respect thereto.

     (b) Each prepayment of the Loans made pursuant to Section 2.7(a) shall be applied ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans being prepaid, in proportion to the principal amount held by eachprovided that if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender at the time of any such prepayment, any voluntary prepayment of the Loans shall, if the Administrative Agent so directs at the time of making such voluntary prepayment, be applied to the Loans of other Lenders as if such Defaulting Lender had no Loans outstanding and the outstanding Loans of such Defaulting Lender were zero.

     2.8 Interest.

     (a) The Borrower will pay interest in respect of the unpaid principal amount of each Loan, from the date of Borrowing thereof until such principal amount shall be paid in full, (i) at the Adjusted Base Rate, as in effect from time to time during such periods as such Loan is a Base Rate Loan, (ii) at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate, as in effect from time to time during such periods as such Loan is a LIBOR Loan, and (iii) at the Adjusted LIBOR Market Index Rate, as in effect from time to time for all Swingline Loans.

     (b) At the election of the Administrative Agent (or as otherwise directed by the Lenders and to be applied retroactively to the occurrence of the Event of Default, at the option thereof) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, all outstanding principal amounts of the Loans and, to the greatest extent permitted by law, all interest accrued on the Loans and all other accrued and outstanding fees and other amounts hereunder, shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable from time to time thereafter to such Loans (whether the Adjusted Base Rate or the Adjusted LIBOR Rate) plus 2% (or, in the case of interest, fees and other amounts for which no rate is provided hereunder, at the Adjusted Base Rate applicable to Revolving Loans plus 2%), and, in each case, such default interest shall be payable on demand. To the greatest extent permitted by law, interest shall continue to accrue after the filing by or against the Borrower of any petition seeking any relief in bankruptcy or under any law pertaining to insolvency or debtor relief.

     (c) Accrued (and theretofore unpaid) interest shall be payable as follows:

     (i) in respect of each Base Rate Loan (including any Base Rate Loan or portion thereof paid or prepaid pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.6, except as provided hereinbelow) and each LIBOR Market Index Loan, in arrears on the last day of each calendar month, beginning with the first such day to occur after the Closing Date; provided, that in the event the Loans are repaid or prepaid in full and the Commitments have been terminated, then accrued interest in respect of all Base Rate Loans and LIBOR Market Index Loans shall be payable together with such repayment or prepayment on the date thereof;

     (ii) in respect of each LIBOR Loan (including any LIBOR Loan or portion thereof paid or prepaid pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.6, except as provided hereinbelow), in arrears (y) on the last Business Day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (subject to the provisions of Section 2.10(iv)) and (z) in addition, in the case of a LIBOR Loan with an Interest

32

Period having a duration of six months or longer, on each date on which interest would have been payable under clause (y) above had successive Interest Periods of three months’ duration been applicable to such LIBOR Loan; provided, that in the event all LIBOR Loans made pursuant to a single Borrowing are repaid or prepaid in full, then accrued interest in respect of such LIBOR Loans shall be payable together with such repayment or prepayment on the date thereof; and

     (iii) in respect of any Loan, at maturity (whether pursuant to acceleration or otherwise) and, after maturity, on demand.

     (d) Nothing contained in this Agreement or in any other Credit Document shall be deemed to establish or require the payment of interest to any Lender at a rate in excess of the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. If the amount of interest payable for the account of any Lender on any interest payment date would exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to be charged by such Lender, the amount of interest payable for its account on such interest payment date shall be automatically reduced to such maximum permissible amount. In the event of any such reduction affecting any Lender, if from time to time thereafter the amount of interest payable for the account of such Lender on any interest payment date would be less than the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to be charged by such Lender, then the amount of interest payable for its account on such subsequent interest payment date shall be automatically increased to such maximum permissible amount, provided that at no time shall the aggregate amount by which interest paid for the account of any Lender has been increased pursuant to this sentence exceed the aggregate amount by which interest paid for its account has theretofore been reduced pursuant to the previous sentence.

     (e) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders upon determining the interest rate for each Borrowing of LIBOR Loans after its receipt of the relevant Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation, and upon each change in the Base Rate; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent to provide the Borrower or the Lenders with any such notice shall neither affect any obligations of the Borrower or the Lenders hereunder nor result in any liability on the part of the Administrative Agent to the Borrower or any Lender. Each such determination of an element of an interest rate (including each determination of the Reserve Requirement) shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.

     (f) In the event that any financial statement or Compliance Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 5.10, 6.1 or 6.2 is shown to be inaccurate (regardless of whether this Agreement or the Commitments are in effect when such inaccuracy is discovered), and such inaccuracy, if corrected, would have led to the application of a higher Applicable Percentage for any period (an “Applicable Period”) than the Applicable Percentage applied for such Applicable Period, then the Borrower shall immediately (i) deliver to the Administrative Agent a correct Compliance Certificate for such Applicable Period, (ii) determine the Applicable Percentage for such Applicable Period based upon the corrected Compliance Certificate, and (iii) immediately pay to the Administrative Agent the accrued additional interest owing as a result of such increased Applicable Percentage for such Applicable Period, which payment shall be promptly applied by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.12(e). This Section 2.8(f) is in addition to the rights of the Administrative Agent and Lenders with respect to Sections 2.8(b) and 9.1, if applicable, and other respective rights under this Agreement.

     2.9 Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay:

     (a) (i) On the Closing Date, to the Administrative Agent, for the account of Xxxxx Fargo, the initial Lender, an upfront fee equal to $140,000, and (ii) on the first anniversary of the Closing Date, to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, an upfront fee equal to 0.15% of such Lender’s Commitment on such date.

     (b) To the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, a unutilized commitment fee for each calendar quarter (or portion thereof) for the period from the date of this Agreement to the Termination Date, at a per annum rate equal to (i) 0.375%, if the daily average balance of the outstanding Aggregate Credit Exposure for the 12 months ending on the last day of such calendar quarter is less than 40% of the aggregate Commitments, or (ii) 0.25%, if the daily average balance of the outstanding Aggregate Credit Exposure for the 12 months ending on the last day of such calendar quarter is greater than 40% of the aggregate Commitments, in each case payable on such Lender’s ratable share (based on the proportion that its Commitment bears to the aggregate Commitments) of the average daily aggregate Unutilized Commitments, payable in arrears (i) on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter, beginning with the first such day to occur after the Closing Date, and (ii) on the Termination Date; provided, however, that no commitment fee shall accrue on the Unutilized Commitment of a Defaulting Lender during any period that such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender.

     (c) To the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, a letter of credit fee for each calendar quarter (or portion thereof) in respect of all Letters of Credit outstanding during such quarter, at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Percentage in effect from time to time during such quarter for Revolving Loans that are maintained as LIBOR Loans, on such Lender’s ratable share (based on the proportion that its Commitment bears to the aggregate Commitments) of the daily average aggregate Stated Amount of such Letters of Credit, payable in arrears (i) on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter, beginning with the first such day to occur after the Closing Date, and (ii) on the later of the Termination Date and the date of termination of the last outstanding Letter of Credit; provided, however, that any Letter of Credit Fees otherwise payable for the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit as to which such Defaulting Lender has not provided Cash Collateral satisfactory to the Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.1(a) shall be payable, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, to the other Lenders in accordance with the upward adjustments in their respective Applicable Percentages allocable to such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.20(a)(iii), with the balance of such fee, if any, payable to the Issuing Lender for its own account;

     (d) If at any time there is more than one Lender, to the Issuing Lender, for its own account, a facing fee for each calendar quarter (or portion thereof) in respect of all Letters of Credit outstanding during such quarter, at a per annum rate of 0.125% on the daily average aggregate Stated Amount of such Letters of Credit, payable in arrears (i) on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter, beginning with the first such day to occur after the Closing Date, and (ii) on the later of the Termination Date and the date of termination of the last outstanding Letter of Credit;

     (e) To the Issuing Lender, for its own account, such commissions, transfer fees and other fees and charges incurred in connection with the issuance and administration of each Letter of Credit as are customarily charged from time to time by the Issuing Lender for the performance of such services in connection with similar letters of credit, or as may be otherwise agreed to by the Issuing Lender, but without duplication of amounts payable under Section 2.9(d); and

     (f) To the Administrative Agent, for its own account, an annual administrative fee equal to $7,500, provided that if there is more than one Lender, such fee shall be increased to $15,000 per year plus $5,000 for each Lender in excess of three Lenders, in any case, payable in advance on the Closing Date, and each anniversary thereof (and upon the addition of a Lender, as applicable, with such fee for the current year reduced pro rata based upon the remainder of the such year).

     2.10 Interest Periods. Concurrently with the giving of a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation in respect of any Borrowing comprised of Base Rate Loans to be converted into, or LIBOR Loans to be continued as, LIBOR Loans, the Borrower shall have the right to elect, pursuant to such notice, the interest period (each, an “Interest Period”) to be applicable to such LIBOR Loans, which

34

Interest Period shall, at the option of the Borrower, be a one, two, three or six-month period; provided, however, that:

     (i) all LIBOR Loans comprising a single Borrowing shall at all times have the same Interest Period;

     (ii) the initial Interest Period for any LIBOR Loan shall commence on the date of the Borrowing of such LIBOR Loan (including the date of any continuation of, or conversion into, such LIBOR Loan), and each successive Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Loan shall commence on the day on which the next preceding Interest Period applicable thereto expires;

     (iii) LIBOR Loans may not be outstanding under more than six separate Interest Periods at any one time (for which purpose Interest Periods shall be deemed to be separate even if they are coterminous);

     (iv) if any Interest Period otherwise would expire on a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business Day unless such next succeeding Business Day falls in another calendar month, in which case such Interest Period shall expire on the immediately preceding Business Day;

     (v) the Borrower may not select any Interest Period that expires after the Maturity Date;

     (vi) if any Interest Period begins on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month during which such Interest Period would otherwise expire, such Interest Period shall expire on the last Business Day of such calendar month; and

     (vii) the Borrower may not select any Interest Period (and consequently, no LIBOR Loans shall be made) if a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation with respect to any Borrowing.

     2.11 Conversions and Continuations.

     (a) The Borrower shall have the right, on any Business Day occurring on or after the Closing Date, to elect (i) to convert all or a portion of the outstanding principal amount of any Base Rate Loans of any Class into LIBOR Loans of the same Class, or to convert any LIBOR Loans of any Class the Interest Periods for which end on the same day into Base Rate Loans of the same Class, or (ii) upon the expiration of any Interest Period, to continue all or a portion of the outstanding principal amount of any LIBOR Loans of any Class the Interest Periods for which end on the same day for an additional Interest Period, provided that (w) any such conversion of LIBOR Loans into Base Rate Loans shall involve an aggregate principal amount of not less than $1,000,000 or, if greater, an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof; any such conversion of Base Rate Loans into, or continuation of, LIBOR Loans shall involve an aggregate principal amount of not less than $2,000,000 or, if greater, an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; and no partial conversion of LIBOR Loans made pursuant to a single Borrowing shall reduce the outstanding principal amount of such LIBOR Loans to less than $2,000,000 or to any greater amount not an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (x) except as otherwise provided in Section 2.16(f), LIBOR Loans may be converted into Base Rate Loans only on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (and, in any event, if a LIBOR Loan is converted into a Base Rate Loan on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower will pay, upon such conversion, all amounts required under Section 2.18 to be paid as a consequence thereof), (y) no such

35

conversion or continuation shall be permitted with regard to any Swingline Loans, and (z) no conversion of Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans or continuation of LIBOR Loans shall be permitted during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default.

     (b) The Borrower shall make each such election by giving the Administrative Agent written notice not later than 11:00 a.m., Charlotte time, three Business Days prior to the intended effective date of any conversion of Base Rate Loans into, or continuation of, LIBOR Loans and one Business Day prior to the intended effective date of any conversion of LIBOR Loans into Base Rate Loans. Each such notice (each, a “Notice of Conversion/Continuation”) shall be irrevocable, shall be given in the form of Exhibit B-2 and shall specify (x) the date of such conversion or continuation (which shall be a Business Day), (y) in the case of a conversion into, or a continuation of, LIBOR Loans, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto, and (z) the aggregate amount, Class and Type of the Loans being converted or continued. Upon the receipt of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each applicable Lender of the proposed conversion or continuation. In the event that the Borrower shall fail to deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation as provided herein with respect to any outstanding LIBOR Loans, such LIBOR Loans shall, absent a Default or Event of Default, automatically be continued as LIBOR Loans with an Interest Period of one month upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto (unless repaid pursuant to the terms hereof). In the event the Borrower shall have failed to select in a Notice of Conversion/Continuation the duration of the Interest Period to be applicable to any conversion into, or continuation of, LIBOR Loans, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period with a duration of one month.

     2.12 Method of Payments; Computations; Apportionment of Payments.

     (a) All payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense, in Dollars and in immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders entitled to such payment or the Swingline Loans (except as otherwise expressly provided herein as to payments required to be made directly to the Issuing Lender or the Lenders) at the Payment Office prior to 12:00 noon, Charlotte time, on the date payment is due. Any payment made as required hereinabove, but after 12:00 noon, Charlotte time, shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day. If any payment falls due on a day that is not a Business Day, then such due date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day (except that in the case of LIBOR Loans to which the provisions of Section 2.10(iv) are applicable, such due date shall be the next preceding Business Day), and such extension of time shall then be included in the computation of payment of interest, fees or other applicable amounts.

     (b) The Administrative Agent will distribute to the Lenders like amounts relating to payments made to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders as follows: (i) if the payment is received by 12:00 noon, Charlotte time, in immediately available funds, the Administrative Agent will make available to each relevant Lender on the same date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, such Lender’s ratable share of such payment (based on the percentage that the amount of the relevant payment owing to such Lender bears to the total amount of such payment owing to all of the relevant Lenders), and (ii) if such payment is received after 12:00 noon, Charlotte time, or in other than immediately available funds, the Administrative Agent will make available to each such Lender its ratable share of such payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds on the next succeeding Business Day (or in the case of uncollected funds, as soon as practicable after collected). Notwithstanding the foregoing or any contrary provision hereof, if any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it hereunder to the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Lender, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations to the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Lender until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid. If the

36

Administrative Agent shall not have made a required distribution to the appropriate Lenders as required hereinabove after receiving a payment for the account of such Lenders, the Administrative Agent will pay to each such Lender, on demand, its ratable share of such payment with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate for each day from the date such amount was required to be disbursed by the Administrative Agent until the date repaid to such Lender. The Administrative Agent will distribute to the Issuing Lender like amounts relating to payments made to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender in the same manner, and subject to the same terms and conditions, as set forth hereinabove with respect to distributions of amounts to the Lenders.

     (c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the Issuing Lender, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

     (d) All computations of interest and fees hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year consisting of (i) in the case of interest on Base Rate Loans, 365/366 days, as the case may be, or (ii) in all other instances, 360 days; and in each case under (i) and (ii) above, with regard to the actual number of days (including the first day, but excluding the last day) elapsed.

     (e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document to the contrary, all amounts collected or received by the Administrative Agent or any Lender after acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Section 9.2 or in respect of any sale of, collection from or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral pursuant to the exercise by the Administrative Agent of its remedies shall be applied by the Administrative Agent as follows:

     (i) first, to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ and consultants’ fees irrespective of whether such fees are allowed as a claim after the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event) of the Administrative Agent in connection with enforcing the rights of the Lenders under the Credit Documents and any protective advances made by the Administrative Agent with respect to the Collateral under or pursuant to the terms of the Security Documents;

     (ii) second, to the payment of any fees owed to the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Credit Document;

     (iii) third, to the extent subject to indemnification by the Borrower hereunder, the payment of all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ and consultants’ fees irrespective of whether such fees are allowed as a claim after the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event) of each of the Lenders in connection with enforcing its rights under the Credit Documents or otherwise with respect to the Obligations owing to such Lender;

     (iv) fourth, to the payment of all of the Obligations consisting of accrued fees and interest (including, without limitation, fees incurred and interest accruing at the then applicable

37

rate after the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event irrespective of whether a claim for such fees incurred and interest accruing is allowed in such proceeding), and including with respect to any Hedge Agreement between any Credit Party and any Hedge Party (to the extent such Hedge Agreement is permitted hereunder), any fees, premiums and scheduled periodic payments due under such Hedge Agreement prior to any termination thereof and any interest accrued thereon;

     (v) fifth, to the payment of the outstanding principal amount of the Obligations (including the payment of any outstanding Reimbursement Obligations and the obligation to cash collateralize Letter of Credit Exposure), and including with respect to any Hedge Agreement between any Credit Party and any Hedge Party (to the extent such Hedge Agreement is permitted hereunder), any breakage, termination or other payments due under such Hedge Agreement and any interest accrued thereon;

     (vi) sixth, to the payment of all other Obligations and other obligations that shall have become due and payable under the Credit Documents or otherwise and not repaid; and

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

In carrying out the foregoing, (x) amounts received shall be applied in the numerical order provided until exhausted prior to application to the next succeeding category, (y) all amounts shall be apportioned ratably among the Lenders or Hedge Parties in proportion to the amounts of such principal, interest, fees or other Obligations owed to them respectively pursuant to clauses (iii) through (vii) above, and (z) to the extent that any amounts available for distribution pursuant to clause (v) above are attributable to the issued but undrawn amount of outstanding Letters of Credit, such amounts shall be held by the Administrative Agent to cash collateralize Letter of Credit Exposure pursuant to Section 3.8.

     2.13 Recovery of Payments.

     (a) The Borrower agrees that to the extent the Borrower makes a payment or payments to or for the account of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender, any Lender or the Issuing Lender, which payment or payments or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar state or federal law, common law or equitable cause (whether as a result of any demand, settlement, litigation or otherwise), then, to the extent of such payment or repayment, the Obligation intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been received.

     (b) If any amounts distributed by the Administrative Agent to any Lender are subsequently returned or repaid by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower, its representative or successor in interest, or any other Person, whether by court order, by settlement approved by the Lender in question, or pursuant to applicable Requirements of Law, such Lender will, promptly upon receipt of notice thereof from the Administrative Agent, pay the Administrative Agent such amount. If any such amounts are recovered by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower, its representative or successor in interest or such other Person, the Administrative Agent will redistribute such amounts to the Lenders on the same basis as such amounts were originally distributed.

     2.14 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loans shall be used (i) to repay the Existing Senior Credit Facilities in full, and (ii) to provide for working capital and general corporate purposes and in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, to finance Permitted Acquisitions in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement).

38

     2.15 Pro Rata Treatment.

     (a) Except in the case of Swingline Loans and for the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender, all fundings, continuations and conversions of Loans of any Class shall be made by the Lenders pro rata on the basis of their respective Commitments to provide Loans of such Class (in the case of the funding of Loans of such Class pursuant to Section 2.2) or on the basis of their respective outstanding Loans of such Class (in the case of continuations and conversions of Loans of such Class pursuant to Section 2.11, and additionally in all cases in the event the Commitments for Loans of such Class have expired or have been terminated), as the case may be from time to time. All payments on account of principal of or interest on any Loans, fees or any other Obligations owing to or for the account of any one or more Lenders shall be apportioned ratably among such Lenders in proportion to the amounts of such principal, interest, fees or other Obligations owed to them respectively.

     (b) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other Obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such Obligations greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other Obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them, provided that (i) if any such 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 Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in Reimbursement Obligations or Swingline Loans to any assignee or Participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section 2.15(b) shall apply). The 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 Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. If under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this Section 2.15(b) applies, such Lender shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Lenders entitled under this Section 2.15(b) to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.

     2.16 Increased Costs; Change in Circumstances; Illegality.

     (a) If any Change in Law shall:

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

     (ii) subject any Lender or the Issuing Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any participation in a Letter of Credit or any LIBOR Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender or the

39

Issuing Lender in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 2.17 and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender or the Issuing Lender); or

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

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

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

     (c) A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Section 2.16(a) or Section 2.16(b) and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten days after receipt thereof.

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

     (e) If, on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period, (y) the Administrative Agent shall have determined that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable LIBOR

40

Rate for such Interest Period or (z) the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from the Required Lenders of their determination that the rate of interest referred to in the definition of “LIBOR Rate” upon the basis of which the Adjusted LIBOR Rate for LIBOR Loans for such Interest Period is to be determined will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining LIBOR Loans during such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders. Upon such notice, (i) all then outstanding LIBOR Loans shall automatically, on the expiration date of the respective Interest Periods applicable thereto (unless then repaid in full), be converted into Base Rate Loans, (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, to convert Base Rate Loans into, or to continue, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended (including pursuant to the Borrowing to which such Interest Period applies), and (iii) any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation given at any time thereafter with respect to LIBOR Loans shall be deemed to be a request for Base Rate Loans, in each case until the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, as the case may be, shall have determined that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist (and the Required Lenders, if making such determination, shall have so notified the Administrative Agent), and the Administrative Agent shall have so notified the Borrower and the Lenders.

     (f) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, if, at any time after the date hereof and from time to time, any Lender shall have determined in good faith that the introduction of or any change in any applicable law, rule or regulation or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance with any guideline or request from any such Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), has or would have the effect of making it unlawful for such Lender to make or to continue to make or maintain LIBOR Loans, such Lender will forthwith so notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. Upon such notice, (i) each of such Lender’s then outstanding LIBOR Loans shall automatically, on the expiration date of the respective Interest Period applicable thereto (or, to the extent any such LIBOR Loan may not lawfully be maintained as a LIBOR Loan until such expiration date, upon such notice) and to the extent not sooner prepaid, be converted into a Base Rate Loan, (ii) the obligation of such Lender to make, to convert Base Rate Loans into, or to continue, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended (including pursuant to any Borrowing for which the Administrative Agent has received a Notice of Borrowing but for which the Borrowing Date has not arrived), and (iii) any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation given at any time thereafter with respect to LIBOR Loans shall, as to such Lender, be deemed to be a request for a Base Rate Loan, in each case until such Lender shall have determined that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist and shall have so notified the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall have so notified the Borrower.

     2.17 Taxes.

     (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, provided that if the Borrower shall be required by applicable law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes (including any 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, Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

     (b) Without limiting the provisions of Section 2.17(a), the Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

41

     (c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Lender, within ten days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, 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. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or the Issuing Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the Issuing Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

     (d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower 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 is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.

     Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States, any Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable:

     (i) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party,

     (ii) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI,

     (iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or

     (iv) any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal withholding tax duly completed together with such

supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

     (f) If the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Lender in the event the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section 2.17(f) shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

     2.18 Compensation. The Borrower will compensate each Lender upon demand for all losses, expenses and liabilities (including, without limitation, any loss, expense or liability incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds required by such Lender to fund or maintain LIBOR Loans) that such Lender may incur or sustain (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender) a Borrowing or continuation of, or conversion into, a LIBOR Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation, (ii) if any repayment, prepayment or conversion of any LIBOR Loan occurs on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a consequence of any assignment made pursuant to Section 2.19(a) or of any acceleration of the maturity of the Loans pursuant to Section 9.2), (iii) if any prepayment of any LIBOR Loan is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by the Borrower or (iv) as a consequence of any other failure by the Borrower to make any payments with respect to any LIBOR Loan when due hereunder. Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Section 2.18 shall be made as though such Lender had actually funded its relevant LIBOR Loan through the purchase of a Eurodollar deposit bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate in an amount equal to the amount of such LIBOR Loan, having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period; provided, however, that each Lender may fund its LIBOR Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumption shall be utilized only for the calculation of amounts payable under this Section 2.18. A certificate (which shall be in reasonable detail) showing the bases for the determinations set forth in this Section 2.18 by any Lender as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.18 shall be submitted by such Lender to the Borrower either directly or through the Administrative Agent. Determinations set forth in any such certificate made in good faith for purposes of this Section 2.18 of any such losses, expenses or liabilities shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

     2.19 Replacement of Lender; Mitigation of Costs.

     (a) The Borrower may, at any time at its sole expense and effort, require any Lender (i) that has requested compensation from the Borrower under Sections 2.16(a) or 2.16(b), or that is a Defaulting Lender, in any case upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 11.6), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Credit Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee shall be another Lender, if a

43

Lender accepts such assignment, or another Person reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent); provided that:

     (i) the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 11.6(b)(iv);

     (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 2.18) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

     (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a request for compensation under Sections 2.16(a) or 2.16(b) or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and

     (iv) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Requirements of Law.

     A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

     (b) If any Lender requests compensation under Sections 2.16(a) or 2.16(b), or the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 2.16(f), then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Sections 2.16(a), 2.16(b) or 2.17, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 2.16(f), as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

     2.20 Defaulting Lenders.

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

     (i) Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders and in Section 11.5.

     (ii) Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article IX or otherwise) shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender hereunder; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent or

44

requested by the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, to be held as Cash Collateral for future funding obligations of such Defaulting Lender in respect of any participation in any Letter of Credit or Swingline Loan; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in an interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or any Letter of Credit Exposure in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and obligations in respect of Letters of Credit owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or obligations in respect of Letters of Credit owed to, such Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

     (iii) All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s Letters of Credit Exposure and its Swingline Exposure shall automatically (effective on the day such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender) be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Credit Exposures (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that (x) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing (and, unless the Borrower shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at the time, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such condition is satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocation does not cause the Revolving Credit Exposure of any non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment.

     (iv) If the reallocation described in clause (iii) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, within two Business Days following notice by the Administrative Agent, Cash Collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure and its Swingline Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (iii) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.20(c) for so long as such Swingline Loans are outstanding.

     (b) If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Revolving Loans and funded and unfunded participations in

45

Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Credit Exposures (without giving effect to Section 2.20(a)(iii), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

     (c) At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within two Business Days upon the request of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.20(a)(iii) and any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

     (i) All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained in blocked, interest bearing deposit accounts with the Administrative Agent. The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Lender, such Lender, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders (including the Swingline Lender), and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein, and all other property so provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and in all proceeds of the foregoing, all as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to clause (ii) below. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the applicable Fronting Exposure and other obligations secured thereby, the Borrower or the relevant Defaulting Lender will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency.

     (ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under any of this Section 2.20 in respect of Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific Letter of Credit Exposure or Swingline Loans, obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may be provided for herein.

     (iii) Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or other obligations shall be released promptly following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee)), or (ii) the Administrative Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided, however, (x) that Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of a Loan Party shall not be released during the continuance of a Default (and following application as provided in this Section 2.20 may be otherwise applied in accordance with Section 2.15), and (y) the Person providing Cash Collateral and each applicable Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.

ARTICLE III

LETTERS OF CREDIT

     3.1 Issuance. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions herein set forth, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Issuing Lender will, at any time and from time to time on and after the Closing Date and prior to the earlier of (i) the Letter of Credit Maturity Date and (ii) the Termination Date, and upon request by the Borrower in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.2, issue for the account of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries one or more irrevocable standby letters of credit denominated in Dollars and in a form customarily used or otherwise approved by the Issuing Lender (together with all amendments, modifications and supplements thereto, substitutions therefor and renewals and restatements thereof, collectively, the “Letters of Credit”). The Stated Amount of each Letter of Credit shall not be less than such amount as may be acceptable to the Issuing Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing:

     (a) No Letter of Credit shall be issued if, after giving effect to such issuance, (i) the Stated Amount when added to the aggregate Letter of Credit Exposure of the Lenders at such time, would exceed the Letter of Credit Subcommitment, (ii) the Stated Amount when added to the Aggregate Credit Exposure, would exceed the aggregate Commitments or the Maximum Availability at such time, and (iii) any Lender is at that time a Defaulting Lender, unless the Issuing Lender has entered into an arrangement, including the delivery of Cash Collateral, satisfactory to the Issuing Lender (in its sole discretion) with the Borrower or such Lender to eliminate the Issuing Lender’s actual or potential Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.20(a)(iii)) with respect to the Defaulting Lender arising from either the Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or that Letter of Credit and all other Letter of Credit Exposure as to which the Issuing Lender has actual or potential Fronting Exposure, as it may elect in its sole discretion;

     (b) Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, or otherwise will benefit, a Subsidiary of the Borrower, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Issuing Lender hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit (and the Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the benefit of its Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Borrower and that the Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries);

     (c) No Letter of Credit shall be issued that by its terms expires later than the Letter of Credit Maturity Date or, in any event, more than one year after its date of issuance; provided, however, that a Letter of Credit may, if requested by the Borrower, provide by its terms, and on terms acceptable to the Issuing Lender, for renewal for successive periods of one year or less (but not beyond the Letter of Credit Maturity Date), unless and until the Issuing Lender shall have delivered a notice of nonrenewal to the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit; and

     (d) The Issuing Lender shall be under no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if, at the time of such proposed issuance, (i) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall purport by its terms to enjoin or restrain the Issuing Lender from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Requirement of Law applicable to the Issuing Lender or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the Issuing Lender shall prohibit, or request that the Issuing Lender refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the Issuing Lender with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction or reserve or capital requirement (for which the Issuing Lender is not otherwise compensated) not in effect on the Closing Date, or any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense that was not applicable, in effect or known to the Issuing Lender as of the Closing Date and that the Issuing

47

Lender in good xxxxx xxxxx material to it, or (ii) the Issuing Lender shall have actual knowledge, or shall have received notice from any Lender, prior to the issuance of such Letter of Credit that one or more of the conditions specified in Section 4.1 (if applicable) or Section 4.2 are not then satisfied (or have not been waived in writing as required herein) or that the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate the provisions of Section 3.1(a).

     3.2 Notices. Whenever the Borrower desires the issuance of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower will give the Issuing Lender written notice with a copy to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., Charlotte time, five Business Days (or such shorter period as is acceptable to the Issuing Lender in any given case) prior to the requested date of issuance thereof. Each such notice (each, a “Letter of Credit Notice”) shall be irrevocable, shall be given in the form of Exhibit B-4 and shall specify (i) the requested date of issuance, which shall be a Business Day, (ii) the requested Stated Amount and expiry date of the Letter of Credit, and (iii) the name and address of the requested beneficiary or beneficiaries of the Letter of Credit. The Borrower will also complete any application procedures and documents reasonably required by the Issuing Lender in connection with the issuance of any Letter of Credit. Upon its issuance of any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender will promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such issuance, and the Administrative Agent will give prompt notice thereof to each Lender. The renewal or extension of any outstanding Letter of Credit shall, for purposes of this Article 2.20, be treated in all respects as the issuance of a new Letter of Credit.

     3.3 Participations. Immediately upon the issuance of any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each Lender, and each Lender shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from the Issuing Lender, without recourse or warranty (except for the absence of Liens thereon created, incurred or suffered to exist by, through or under the Issuing Lender), an undivided interest and participation, pro rata (based on the percentage of the aggregate Commitments represented by such Lender’s Commitment), in such Letter of Credit, each drawing made thereunder and the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement with respect thereto and any Collateral or other security therefor or guaranty pertaining thereto; provided, however, that the fee relating to Letters of Credit described in Section 2.9(d) shall be payable directly to the Issuing Lender as provided therein, and the other Lenders shall have no right to receive any portion thereof. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as provided above) of each Reimbursement Obligation not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in Section 3.4 or through the Borrowing of Revolving Loans as provided in Section 3.5 (because the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 cannot be satisfied, or for any other reason), or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Upon any change in the Commitments of any of the Lenders pursuant to Section 11.6(a), with respect to all outstanding Letters of Credit and Reimbursement Obligations there shall be an automatic adjustment to the participations pursuant to this Section 3.3 to reflect the new pro rata shares of the assigning Lender and the assignee. Each Lender’s obligation to make payment to the Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 3.4 shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the termination of the Commitments or the existence of any Default or Event of Default, and each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, reduction or withholding whatsoever.

     3.4 Reimbursement. The Borrower hereby agrees to reimburse the Issuing Lender by making payment to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, in immediately available funds, for any payment made by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit (each such amount so paid until reimbursed, together with interest thereon payable as provided hereinbelow, a “Reimbursement Obligation”) immediately upon, and in any event on the same Business Day as, the making of such payment by the Issuing Lender (provided that any such Reimbursement Obligation shall be deemed

48

timely satisfied (but nevertheless subject to the payment of interest thereon as provided hereinbelow) if satisfied pursuant to a Borrowing of Revolving Loans made on the date of such payment by the Issuing Lender, as set forth more completely in Section 3.5), together with interest on the amount so paid by the Issuing Lender, to the extent not reimbursed prior to 2:00 p.m., Charlotte time, on the date of such payment or disbursement, for the period from the date of the respective payment to the date the Reimbursement Obligation created thereby is satisfied, at the Adjusted Base Rate applicable to Revolving Loans as in effect from time to time during such period, such interest also to be payable on demand. The Issuing Lender will provide the Administrative Agent and the Borrower with prompt notice of any payment or disbursement made or to be made under any Letter of Credit, although the failure to give, or any delay in giving, any such notice shall not release, diminish or otherwise affect the Borrower’s obligations under this Section 3.4 or any other provision of this Agreement. The Administrative Agent will promptly pay to the Issuing Lender any such amounts received by it under this Section 3.4.

     3.5 Payment by Revolving Loans. In the event that the Issuing Lender makes any payment under any Letter of Credit and the Borrower shall not have timely satisfied in full its Reimbursement Obligation to the Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.4, and to the extent that any amounts then held in the Cash Collateral Account established pursuant to Section 3.8 shall be insufficient to satisfy such Reimbursement Obligation in full, the Issuing Lender will promptly notify the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender, of such failure. If the Administrative Agent gives such notice prior to 12:00 noon, Charlotte time, on any Business Day, each Lender will make available to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, its pro rata share (based on the percentage of the aggregate Commitments represented by such Lender’s Commitment) of the amount of such payment on such Business Day in immediately available funds. If the Administrative Agent gives such notice after 12:00 noon, Charlotte time, on any Business Day, each such Lender shall make its pro rata share of such amount available to the Administrative Agent on the next succeeding Business Day. If and to the extent any Lender shall not have so made its pro rata share of the amount of such payment available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, forthwith on demand such amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate for each day from such date until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent. The failure of any Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent its pro rata share of any payment under any Letter of Credit shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent its pro rata share of any payment under any Letter of Credit on the date required, as specified above, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent such other Lender’s pro rata share of any such payment. Each such payment by a Lender under this Section 3.5 of its pro rata share of an amount paid by the Issuing Lender shall constitute a Revolving Loan by such Lender (the Borrower being deemed to have given a timely Notice of Borrowing therefor) and shall be treated as such for all purposes of this Agreement; provided that for purposes of determining the aggregate Unutilized Commitments immediately prior to giving effect to the application of the proceeds of such Revolving Loans, the Reimbursement Obligation being satisfied thereby shall be deemed not to be outstanding at such time. Each Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 3.5 shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation, the failure of the amount of such Borrowing of Loans to meet the minimum Borrowing amount specified in Section 2.2(b); provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 3.5 is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 (other than delivery by the Borrower of a Notice of Borrowing).

     3.6 Payment to Lenders. Whenever the Issuing Lender receives a payment in respect of a Reimbursement Obligation as to which the Administrative Agent has received, for the account of the Issuing Lender, any payments from the Lenders pursuant to Section 3.5, the Issuing Lender will promptly pay to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent will promptly pay to each Lender that has

49

paid its pro rata share thereof, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to such Lender’s ratable share (based on the proportionate amount funded by such Lender to the aggregate amount funded by all Lenders) of such Reimbursement Obligation.

     3.7 Obligations Absolute. The Reimbursement Obligations of the Borrower shall be irrevocable, shall remain in effect until the Issuing Lender shall have no further obligations to make any payments or disbursements under any circumstances with respect to any Letter of Credit, and shall be absolute and unconditional, shall not be subject to counterclaim, setoff or other defense or any other qualification or exception whatsoever and shall be made in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement under all circumstances, including, without limitation, any of the following circumstances:

     (a) Any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any of the other Credit Documents or any documents or instruments relating to any Letter of Credit;

     (b) Any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations in respect of any Letter of Credit or any other amendment, modification or waiver of or any consent to departure from any Letter of Credit made in accordance with its terms or any documents or instruments relating thereto, in each case whether or not the Borrower has notice or knowledge thereof;

     (c) The existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that the Borrower may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender, any Lender or other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated hereby or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between the Borrower and the beneficiary named in any such Letter of Credit);

     (d) Any draft, certificate or any other document presented under the Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect (provided that such draft, certificate or other document appears on its face to comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), any errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, telecopier or otherwise, or any errors in translation or in interpretation of technical terms;

     (e) Any defense based upon the failure of any drawing under a Letter of Credit to conform to the terms of the Letter of Credit (provided that any draft, certificate or other document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit appears on its face to comply with the terms thereof), any nonapplication or misapplication by the beneficiary or any transferee of the proceeds of such drawing or any other act or omission of such beneficiary or transferee in connection with such Letter of Credit;

     (f) The exchange, release, surrender or impairment of any Collateral or other security for the Obligations;

     (g) The occurrence of any Default or Event of Default; or

     (h) Any other circumstance or event whatsoever, including, without limitation, any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower or a Guarantor.

     Any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall be

50

binding upon the Borrower and each Lender and shall not create or result in any liability of the Issuing Lender to the Borrower or any Lender. It is expressly understood and agreed that, for purposes of determining whether a wrongful payment under a Letter of Credit resulted from the Issuing Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, (i) the Issuing Lender’s acceptance of documents that appear on their face to comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, (ii) the Issuing Lender’s exclusive reliance on the documents presented to it under such Letter of Credit as to any and all matters set forth therein, including the amount of any draft presented under such Letter of Credit, whether or not the amount due to the beneficiary thereunder equals the amount of such draft and whether or not any document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be insufficient in any respect (so long as such document appears on its face to comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), and whether or not any other statement or any other document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be forged or invalid or any statement therein proves to be inaccurate or untrue in any respect whatsoever, and (iii) any noncompliance in any immaterial respect of the documents presented under such Letter of Credit with the terms thereof shall, in each case, be deemed not to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender.

     3.8 Cash Collateral Account. At any time and from time to time (i) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may, and at the direction or with the consent of the Required Lenders shall, require the Borrower to deliver to the Administrative Agent such additional amount of cash as is equal to 105% of the aggregate Stated Amount of all Letters of Credit at any time outstanding (whether or not any beneficiary under any Letter of Credit shall have drawn or be entitled at such time to draw thereunder) and (ii) in the event of a prepayment under Section 2.6(b) or Section 2.6(e), the Administrative Agent will retain such amount as may then be required to be retained, such amounts in each case under clauses (i) and (ii) above to be held by the Administrative Agent in a cash collateral account (the “Cash Collateral Account”). The Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Lender and the Lenders, a Lien upon and security interest in the Cash Collateral Account and all amounts held therein from time to time as security for Letter of Credit Exposure, and for application to the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations as and when the same shall arise. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest on the investment of such amounts in Cash Equivalents, which investments shall be made at the direction of the Borrower (unless a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in which case the determination as to investments shall be made at the option and in the discretion of the Administrative Agent), amounts in the Cash Collateral Account shall not bear interest. Interest and profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. In the event of a drawing, and subsequent payment by the Issuing Lender, under any Letter of Credit at any time during which any amounts are held in the Cash Collateral Account, the Administrative Agent will deliver to the Issuing Lender an amount equal to the Reimbursement Obligation created as a result of such payment (or, if the amounts so held are less than such Reimbursement Obligation, all of such amounts) to reimburse the Issuing Lender therefor.

     5.2 Corporate Authority: No Conflict With Other Instruments or Law. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (a) are within the corporate or limited liability company power and authority of each Credit Party (to the extent such Credit Party is a party thereto), (b) have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or limited liability company action on the part of each Credit Party, (c) do not and will not violate any provision of, or result in a breach of or default under, or require the waiver (not already obtained) of any provision of or the consent (not already given) of any Person under the terms of (i) any Credit Party’s articles or certificate of incorporation or formation, its bylaws or operating agreement, or other applicable formation or organizational documents, or (ii) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan or credit agreement or other agreement or instrument to which any Credit Party is a party or by which it is bound or to which any of its properties are subject (other than, in the case of this clause (ii), that could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect), (d) will not violate or constitute a default under any Requirement of Law, and

56

     5.4 Enforceability. This Agreement and the other Credit Documents to which any Credit Party is a party constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of such Credit Party, enforceable against such Credit Party in accordance with their terms, except as enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws, statutes or rules of general application affecting the enforcement of creditor’s rights or general principles of equity.

     5.5 Governmental Approval. The execution, delivery and performance by the Credit Parties of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents to which any such Credit Party is a party and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby do not require any authorization, exemption, consent or approval of, notice to, or declaration or filing with, any Governmental Authority other than those obtained on or before the Closing Date (other than those, if not obtained, that could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect).

     5.6 Margin Stock. No Credit Party is engaged principally or as one of its important activities in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System).

Except as set forth in Section 10.6, the provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and neither the Borrower nor any other Credit Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.

     10.2 Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

     10.3 Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

     (a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

     (b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Credit Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Credit Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Credit Document or applicable law; and

     The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 11.5 and 9.2) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the Issuing Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or the Issuing Lender prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Credit Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Credit Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Credit Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed

88

After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 11.1 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

     10.7 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties 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 Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

     10.8 Collateral and Guaranty Matters.

     (a) The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized on behalf of the Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from the Lenders, from time to time (but without any obligation) to take any action with respect to the Collateral and the Security Documents that may be deemed by the Administrative Agent in its discretion to be necessary or advisable to perfect and maintain perfected the Liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Security Documents.

     (b) The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, (i) to release any Lien granted to or held by the Administrative Agent upon any Collateral (A) upon termination of the Commitments, termination, expiration or cash collateralization of all outstanding Letters of Credit and payment in full of all of the Obligations (other than Obligations owing to any Hedge Party under or in connection with any Hedge Agreement required or permitted by this Agreement) then due and payable, (B) constituting property sold or to be sold or disposed of as part of or in connection with any disposition expressly permitted hereunder or under any other Credit Document or to which the Required Lenders have consented in writing or (C) otherwise pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of any applicable Credit Document, (ii) to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Credit Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 8.3(vii); and (iii) to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder.

     (c) To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under Section 11.1(a) or Section 11.1(b) to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the Issuing Lender or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Issuing Lender or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s proportion (based on the percentages as used in determining the Required Lenders as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or the Issuing Lender in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or the Issuing Lender in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 11.1(c) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.3(c).

     (d) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower, each other Credit Party and each Related Party of any of the foregoing persons and each Indemnitee shall not assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against the Borrower, each other Credit Party and each Related Party or any Indemnitee, as applicable, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.

     (e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable by the Borrower upon demand therefor.

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 IN ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT

     11.3 Arbitration; Preservation and Limitation of Remedies.

     (a) Upon demand of any party hereto, whether made before or after institution of any judicial proceeding, any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of, connected with or relating to this Agreement or any other Credit Document (“Disputes”) between or among the Credit Parties, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, shall be resolved by binding arbitration as provided herein. Institution of a judicial proceeding by a party does not waive the right of that party to demand arbitration hereunder. Disputes may include, without limitation, tort claims, counterclaims, claims brought as class actions, claims arising from documents executed in the future, disputes as to whether a matter is subject to arbitration, or claims arising out of or connected with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. Arbitration shall be conducted under and governed by the Commercial Financial Disputes Arbitration Rules (the “Arbitration Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”), as in effect from time to time, and the Federal Arbitration Act, Title 9 of the U.S. Code. All arbitration hearings shall be conducted in the city in which the principal office of the Administrative Agent is located. A hearing shall begin within 90 days of demand for arbitration and all hearings shall be concluded within 120 days of demand for arbitration. These time limitations may not be extended unless a party shows cause for extension and then for no more than a total of 60 days. The expedited procedures set forth in Rule 51 et seq. of the Arbitration Rules shall be applicable to claims of less than $1,000,000. All applicable statutes of limitation shall apply to any Dispute. A judgment upon the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The panel from which all arbitrators are selected shall be comprised of licensed attorneys selected from the Commercial Financial Dispute Arbitration Panel of the AAA. The single arbitrator selected for expedited procedure shall be a retired judge from the highest court of general jurisdiction, state or federal, of the state where the hearing will be conducted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this arbitration provision does not apply to Disputes under or related to any Hedge Agreement. The parties do not waive applicable federal or state substantive law except as provided herein.

     (b) Notwithstanding the preceding binding arbitration provisions, the parties hereto agree to preserve, without diminution, certain remedies that any party hereto may employ or exercise freely, either alone, in conjunction with or during a Dispute. Any party hereto shall have the right to proceed in any court of proper jurisdiction or by self-help to exercise or prosecute the following remedies, as applicable: (i) all rights to foreclose against any Collateral by exercising a power of sale granted pursuant to any of the Credit Documents or under applicable law or by judicial foreclosure and sale, including a proceeding to confirm the sale; (ii) all rights of self-help, including peaceful occupation of real property and

92

collection of rents, set-off, and peaceful possession of personal property; (iii) obtaining provisional or ancillary remedies, including injunctive relief, sequestration, garnishment, attachment, appointment of a receiver and filing an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding; and (iv) when applicable, a judgment by confession of judgment. Any claim or controversy with regard to any party’s entitlement to such remedies is a Dispute. Preservation of these remedies does not limit the power of an arbitrator to grant similar remedies that may be requested by a party in a Dispute. The parties hereto agree that no party shall have a remedy of punitive or exemplary damages against any other party in any Dispute, and each party hereby waives any right or claim to punitive or exemplary damages that it has now or that may arise in the future in connection with any Dispute, whether such Dispute is resolved by arbitration or judicially. The parties acknowledge that by agreeing to binding arbitration they have irrevocably waived any right they may have to a jury trial with regard to a Dispute.

     11.4 Notices; Effectiveness; Electronic Communication.

     (a) Except in the cases of notices and other communications expressly permitted to be given by telephone (and except as provided in Section 11.4(b)), all notices and other communications provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand or overnight courier service, mailed by certified or registered mail or sent by telecopier as follows:

     (i) if to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Lender to it at the address (or telecopier number) specified for such Person on Schedule 1.1(a); and

     (ii) if to any Lender, to it at its address (or telecopier number) set forth in its Administrative Questionnaire.

Notices sent by hand or overnight courier service, or mailed by certified or registered mail, shall be deemed to have been given when received; notices sent by telecopier shall be deemed to have been given when sent (except that, if not given during normal business hours for the recipient, shall be deemed to have been given at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient). Notices delivered through electronic communications to the extent provided in Section 11.4(b) shall be effective as provided in Section 11.4(b).

     (b) Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender pursuant to Article 1.3(b) if such Lender has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communication pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or other communications posted to an internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor.

93

     (c) Any party hereto may change its address or telecopier number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto (except that each Lender need not give notice of any such change to the other Lenders in their capacities as such).

     11.5 Amendments, Waivers, etc. No amendment, modification, waiver or discharge or termination of, or consent to any departure by any Credit Party from, any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document shall be effective unless in a writing signed by the Required Lenders (or by the Administrative Agent at the direction or with the consent of the Required Lenders), and then the same shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such amendment, modification, waiver, discharge, termination or consent shall:

     (a) unless agreed to in writing by each Lender directly affected thereby, (i) reduce or forgive the principal amount of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation, reduce the rate of or forgive any interest thereon (provided that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be required to waive the applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates), or reduce or forgive any fees hereunder (other than fees payable to the Administrative Agent, the Arranger or the Issuing Lender for its own account) (it being understood that an amendment to the definition of Total Net Leverage Ratio (or any defined terms used therein) shall not constitute a reduction of any interest rate or fees hereunder), (ii) extend the final scheduled maturity date or any other scheduled date for the payment of any principal of or interest on any Loan (including any scheduled date for the mandatory reduction or termination of any Commitments, but excluding any mandatory prepayment of the Loans pursuant to Sections 2.6(c) and Section 2.6(d) or reduction or termination of the Commitments in connection therewith), extend the time of payment of any Reimbursement Obligation or any interest thereon, extend the expiry date of any Letter of Credit beyond the Letter of Credit Maturity Date, or extend the time of payment of any fees hereunder (other than fees payable to the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender for its own account), or (iii) increase any Commitment of any such Lender over the amount thereof in effect or extend the maturity thereof (it being understood that a waiver of any condition precedent set forth in Section 4.2 or of any Default or Event of Default or mandatory reduction in the Commitments, if agreed to by the Required Lenders or all Lenders (as may be required hereunder with respect to such waiver), shall not constitute such an increase), or (iv) reduce the percentage of the aggregate Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans, or the number or percentage of Lenders, that shall be required for the Lenders or any of them to take or approve, or direct the Administrative Agent to take, any action hereunder or under any other Credit Document (including as set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders”);

     (b) unless agreed to in writing by all of the Lenders, (i) release all or substantially all of the Collateral (except as may be otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement or in any other Credit Document), (ii) release any Material Subsidiary that is a Guarantor from its obligations under any guaranty agreement (other than (A) as may be otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement or in any other Credit Document or (B) in connection with the sale or other disposition of all of the Capital Stock of such Guarantor in a transaction expressly permitted under or pursuant to this Agreement), (iii) reduce the percentage of the aggregate Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans, or the number or percentage of Lenders, that shall be required for the Lenders or any of them to take or approve, or direct the Administrative Agent to take, any action hereunder or under any other Credit Document (including as set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders”), (iv) change any other provision of this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents requiring, by its terms, the consent or approval of all the Lenders for such amendment, modification, waiver, discharge, termination or consent, or (v) change or waive any provision of Section 2.15, any other provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document requiring pro rata treatment of any Lenders, or this Section 11.5;

94

     (c) unless agreed to in writing by all of the Lenders, reduce the percentage set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” (it being understood that no consent of any other Lender or the Administrative Agent is required);

     (d) unless agreed to in writing by the Required Lenders, (i) except for any such changes to which Section 11.5(a) applies, change any provision of Article 2.20 or any terms or provisions of any Letter of Credit or any supporting documentation relating thereto (it being understood that no consent of any other Lender or the Administrative Agent is required), or (ii) amend, modify or waive any condition precedent to any Borrowing of Revolving Loans or issuance of a Letter of Credit set forth in Section 4.2 (including in connection with any waiver of an existing Default or Event of Default);

     (e) unless agreed to in writing by the Issuing Lender, the Swingline Lender or the Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders required as provided hereinabove to take such action, affect the respective rights or obligations of the Issuing Lender, the Swingline Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, hereunder or under any of the other Credit Documents; and

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

Notwithstanding the fact that the consent of all Lenders is required in certain circumstances as set forth above, each Lender is entitled to vote as such Lender sees fit on any bankruptcy reorganization plan that affects the Loans, and each Lender acknowledges that the provisions of Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code supersedes the unanimous consent provisions set forth herein.

     11.6 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 permitted hereby, except that neither the Borrower nor any other Credit Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.6(b), (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.6(d) or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 11.6(e) (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in Section 11.6(d) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

     (b) Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans (including for purposes of this Section 11.6(b), participations in Letters of Credit and in Swingline Loans) at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

95

     (i) (A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned, and (B) in any case not described in clause (A) above, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than (x) $5,000,000, in the case of any assignment in respect of a Revolving Commitment (which for this purpose includes Revolving Loans outstanding), (y) the entire Swingline Commitment and the full amount of the outstanding Swingline Loans, in the case of Swingline Loans, in any case, treating assignments to two or more Approved Funds under common management as one assignment for purposes of the minimum amounts, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed);

     (ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not apply to rights in respect of Swingline Loans;

     (iii) no consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by clause (B) of Section 11.6(b)(i) and, in addition:

     (A) the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (y) a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (z) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; and

     (B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of a Commitment if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender; and

     (C) the consent of the Issuing Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding); and

     (D) the consent of the Swingline Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment in respect of a Commitment.

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

     (v) no such assignment shall be made to the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries; and

96

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

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 11.6(c), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.16(a), 2.16(b), 2.17, 2.18 and 11.1 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. If requested by or on behalf of the assignee, the Borrower, at its own expense, will execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a new Note or Notes to the order of the assignee (and, if the assigning Lender has retained any portion of its rights and obligations hereunder, to the order of the assigning Lender), prepared in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 2.4 as necessary to reflect, after giving effect to the assignment, the Commitments and/or outstanding Loans, as the case may be, of the assignee and (to the extent of any retained interests) the assigning Lender, in substantially the form of Exhibits X-0, X-0, X-0 xxx/xx X-0, as applicable. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 11.6(b) shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 11.6(d).

     (c) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at its address for notices referred to in Schedule 1.1(a) a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by each of the Borrower and the Issuing Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

     (d) Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender, the Issuing Lender and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in Section 11.5(a) and clause (i) of Section 11.5(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to Section 11.6(e), the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.16(a), 2.16(b), 2.17 and 2.18 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 11.6(b). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also

97

shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.3 as though it were a Lender; provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.15(b) as though it were a Lender.

     (e) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.16(a), Section 2.16(b) or Section 2.17 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.17 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.17(e) as though it were a Lender.

     (f) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Notes, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

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

     (h) Any Lender or participant may, in connection with any assignment, participation, pledge or proposed assignment, participation or pledge pursuant to this Section 11.6, disclose to the Assignee, Participant or pledgee or proposed Assignee, Participant or pledgee any information relating to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries furnished to it by or on behalf of any other party hereto, provided that such Assignee, Participant or pledgee or proposed Assignee, Participant or pledgee agrees in writing to keep such information confidential to the same extent required of the Lenders under Section 11.11.

     (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if Xxxxx Fargo assigns all of its Commitments and Revolving Loans in accordance with this Section 11.6, Xxxxx Fargo may resign as Issuing Lender upon written notice to the Borrower and the Lenders. Upon any such notice of resignation, the Borrower shall have the right to appoint from among the Lenders a successor Issuing Lender; provided that no failure by the Borrower to make such appointment shall affect the resignation of Xxxxx Fargo as Issuing Lender. Xxxxx Fargo shall retain all of the rights and obligations of the Issuing Lender hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit issued by it and outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation and all obligations of the Borrower and the Lenders with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Revolving Loans or fund participation interests pursuant to Article 2.20).

     11.7 No Waiver. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents are cumulative and in addition to, and not exclusive of, all other rights and remedies available at law, in equity or otherwise. No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or Event of Default. No course of dealing between any Credit Party, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders or their agents or employees shall be effective to amend, modify or discharge any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or to constitute a

98

waiver of any Default or Event of Default. No notice to or demand upon any Credit Party in any case shall entitle any Credit Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to exercise any right or remedy or take any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

     11.8 Survival. All representations, warranties and agreements made by or on behalf of the Borrower or any other Credit Party in this Agreement and in the other Credit Documents shall survive the execution and delivery hereof or thereof, the making and repayment of the Loans and the issuance and repayment of the Letters of Credit. In addition, notwithstanding anything herein or under applicable law to the contrary, the provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents relating to indemnification or payment of costs and expenses, including, without limitation, the provisions of Sections 2.8(f), 2.16(a), 2.16(b), 2.17, 2.18 and 11.1, shall survive the payment in full of all Loans and Letters of Credit, the termination of the Commitments and all Letters of Credit, and any termination of this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents.

     11.9 Severability. To the extent any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by or invalid under the applicable law of any jurisdiction, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity and only in such jurisdiction, without prohibiting or invalidating such provision in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions of this Agreement in any jurisdiction.

     11.10 Construction. The headings of the various articles, sections and subsections of this Agreement and the table of contents have been inserted for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any of the provisions hereof. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein and in the other Credit Documents, in the event of any inconsistency or conflict between any provision of this Agreement and any provision of any of the other Credit Documents, the provision of this Agreement shall control.

CERTAIN PROVISIONS RELATING TO PLEDGED INTERESTS

     5.1 After-Acquired Equity Interests; Ownership.

     (a) If any Pledgor shall, at any time and from time to time after the date hereof, acquire any additional capital stock or other Pledged Interests in any Person of the types described in the definition of the term “Pledged Interests,” the same shall be automatically deemed to be Pledged Interests hereunder, and to be pledged to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.1 (subject, in the case of Pledged Interests in Foreign Subsidiaries, to the limitation set forth in the proviso in Section 2.1(xviii), and such Pledgor will forthwith pledge and deposit the same with the Administrative Agent and deliver to the Administrative Agent any certificates therefor, together with undated stock powers or other necessary instruments of transfer or assignment, duly executed in blank and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, together with such other certificates and instruments as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request (including Uniform Commercial Code financing statements or appropriate amendments thereto), and will promptly thereafter deliver to the Administrative Agent a fully completed and duly executed amendment to this Agreement in the form of Exhibit D (each, a “Pledge Amendment”) in respect thereof. Each Pledgor hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to attach each such Pledge Amendment to this Agreement, and agrees that all such Collateral listed on any Pledge Amendment shall for all purposes be deemed Collateral hereunder and shall be subject to the provisions hereof; provided that the failure of any Pledgor to execute and deliver any Pledge Amendment with respect to any such additional Collateral as required hereinabove shall not impair the security interest of the Administrative Agent in such Collateral or otherwise adversely affect the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent hereunder with respect thereto.

     (b) If any Pledged Interests (whether now owned or hereafter acquired) included in the Collateral are “uncertificated securities” within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code or are otherwise not evidenced by any certificate or instrument (unless not constituting a “security” under Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code), each applicable Pledgor will (i) promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof and will promptly take and cause to be taken, (ii) will (if the issuer of such uncertificated securities is a Person other than a Subsidiary of the Borrower) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the issuer to take, all actions required under Articles 8 and 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code and any other applicable law, to enable the Administrative Agent to acquire “control” of such uncertificated securities (within the meaning of such term under Section 8-106 (or its successor provision) of the Uniform Commercial Code) and as may be otherwise necessary to perfect the security interest of the Administrative Agent therein, and (iii) will not, except at the request of the Administrative Agent, cause such Pledged Interest to become certificated.

16

     (c) If any Pledged Interests (whether now owned or hereafter acquired) are not “securities” under Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code, the Borrower will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, take any action to cause the issuer of such Pledged Interests to “opt-in” to Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code unless the Administrative Agent shall have given its prior written consent.

     (d) Except to the extent otherwise expressly permitted by or pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Pledgors will cause the Pledged Interests in each issuer pledged hereunder to constitute at all times 100% of the capital stock or other Pledged Interests in such issuer, such that the issuer shall be a direct or indirect Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Borrower (subject, in the case of Pledged Interests in Foreign Subsidiaries, to the limitation set forth in the proviso in Section 2.1(xviii), and unless the Administrative Agent shall have given its prior written consent or except as may be expressly permitted by the Credit Agreement, no Pledgor will cause or permit any such issuer to issue or sell any new capital stock, any warrants, options or rights to acquire the same, or other Pledged Interests of any nature to any Person other than such Pledgor, or cause, permit or consent to the admission of any other Person as a stockholder, partner or member of any such issuer.

     5.2 Voting Rights. So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to its Pledged Interests (subject to its obligations under Section 5.1(a)), and for that purpose the Administrative Agent will execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered to each applicable Pledgor all such proxies and other instruments as such Pledgor may reasonably request in writing to enable such Pledgor to exercise such voting and other consensual rights; provided, however, that no Pledgor will cast any vote, give any consent, waiver or ratification, or take or fail to take any action, in any manner that would, or could reasonably be expected to, violate or be inconsistent with any of the terms of this Agreement, the Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document or have the effect of materially and adversely impairing the position or interests of the Secured Parties.

     5.3 Dividends and Other Distributions. So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (or would occur as a result thereof), and except as provided otherwise herein, all interest, income, dividends, distributions and other amounts payable in cash in respect of the Pledged Interests may be paid to and retained by the Pledgors; provided, however, that all such interest, income, dividends, distributions and other amounts shall, at all times after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, be paid to the Administrative Agent and retained by it as part of the Collateral (except to the extent applied upon receipt to the repayment of the Secured Obligations). Any and all money and other property paid over to or received by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Section shall be retained by the Administrative Agent in a Collateral Account (as hereinafter defined) upon receipt of such money or other property and shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.2. The Administrative Agent shall, within five (5) Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived, repay to each applicable Pledgor all cash interest, income, dividends, distributions and other amounts that such Pledgor would otherwise be permitted to retain pursuant to the provisions of this Section and that remain in such Collateral Account.

ARTICLE VI

REMEDIES

     6.1 Remedies. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent, at the direction or with the consent of, the Required Lenders, shall be entitled to exercise in respect of the Collateral all of its rights, powers and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it under any other Credit Document, by law, in equity or otherwise, including all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code, and shall be entitled in particular, but without limitation of the foregoing, to exercise the following rights, which each Pledgor agrees to be commercially reasonable:

     (a) To notify any or all account debtors or obligors under any Accounts, Contracts or other Collateral of the security interest in favor of the Administrative Agent created hereby and to direct all such Persons to make payments of all amounts due thereon or thereunder directly to the Administrative Agent or to an account designated by the Administrative Agent; and in such instance and from and after such notice, all amounts and Proceeds (including wire transfers, checks and other Instruments) received by any Pledgor in respect of any Accounts, Contracts or other Collateral shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent hereunder, shall be segregated from the other funds of such Pledgor and shall be forthwith deposited into such account or paid over or delivered to the Administrative Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsements or assignments), to be held as Collateral and applied to the Secured Obligations as provided herein; and by this provision, each Pledgor irrevocably authorizes and directs each Person who is or shall be a party to or liable for the performance of any Contract, upon receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent to the effect that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to attorn to or otherwise recognize the Administrative Agent as owner under such Contract and to pay, observe and otherwise perform the obligations under such Contract to or for the Administrative Agent or the Administrative Agent’s designee as though the Administrative Agent or such designee were such Pledgor named therein, and to do so until otherwise notified by the Administrative Agent;

     (b) To take possession of, receive, endorse, assign and deliver, in its own name or in the name of any Pledgor, all checks, notes, drafts and other Instruments relating to any Collateral, including receiving, opening and properly disposing of all mail addressed to any Pledgor concerning Accounts and other Collateral; to verify with account debtors or other contract parties the validity, amount or any other matter relating to any Accounts or other Collateral, in its own name or in the name of any Pledgor; to accelerate any indebtedness or other obligation constituting Collateral that may be accelerated in accordance with its terms; to take or bring all actions and suits deemed necessary or appropriate to effect collections and to enforce payment of any Accounts or other Collateral; to settle, compromise or release in whole or in part any amounts owing on Accounts or other Collateral; and to extend the time of payment of any and all Accounts or other amounts owing under any Collateral and to make allowances and adjustments with respect thereto, all in the same manner and to the same extent as any Pledgor might have done;

18

     (c) To notify any or all depository institutions with which any Deposit Accounts are maintained and which Deposit Accounts are subject to Control in favor of the Administrative Agent to remit and transfer all monies, securities and other property on deposit in such Deposit Accounts or deposited or received for deposit thereafter to the Administrative Agent, for deposit in a Collateral Account or such other accounts as may be designated by the Administrative Agent, for application to the Secured Obligations as provided herein;

     (d) To transfer to or register in its name or the name of any of its Administrative Agents or nominees all or any part of the Collateral, without notice to any Pledgor and with or without disclosing that such Collateral is subject to the security interest created hereunder;

     (e) To require any Pledgor to, and each Pledgor hereby agrees that it will at its expense and upon request of the Administrative Agent forthwith, assemble all or any part of the Collateral as directed by the Administrative Agent and make it available to the Administrative Agent at a place designated by the Administrative Agent;

     (f) To enter and remain upon the premises of any Pledgor and take possession of all or any part of the Collateral, with or without judicial process; to use the materials, services, books and records of any Pledgor for the purpose of liquidating or collecting the Collateral, whether by foreclosure, auction or otherwise; and to remove the same to the premises of the Administrative Agent or any designated agent for such time as the Administrative Agent may desire, in order to effectively collect or liquidate the Collateral;

     (g) To exercise (i) all voting, consensual and other rights and powers pertaining to the Pledged Interests (whether or not transferred into the name of the Administrative Agent), at any meeting of shareholders, partners, members or otherwise, and (ii) any and all rights of conversion, exchange, subscription and any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to the Pledged Interests as if it were the absolute owner thereof (including, without limitation, the right to exchange at its discretion any and all of the Pledged Interests upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, reclassification, combination of shares or interests, similar rearrangement or other similar fundamental change in the structure of the applicable issuer, or upon the exercise by any Pledgor or the Administrative Agent of any right, privilege or option pertaining to such Pledged Interests), and in connection therewith, the right to deposit and deliver any and all of the Pledged Interests with any committee, depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as the Administrative Agent may determine, and give all consents, waivers and ratifications in respect of the Pledged Interests, all without liability except to account for any property actually received by it, but the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to exercise any such right, privilege or option or give any such consent, waiver or ratification and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing; and for the foregoing purposes each Pledgor will promptly execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent, upon request, all such proxies and other instruments as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to enable the Administrative Agent to exercise such rights and powers; AND IN FURTHERANCE OF THE FOREGOING AND WITHOUT LIMITATION THEREOF, EACH PLEDGOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSTITUTES AND APPOINTS THE AGENT AS THE TRUE AND LAWFUL PROXY AND ATTORNEY-IN-FACT OF SUCH PLEDGOR, WITH FULL POWER OF SUBSTITUTION IN THE PREMISES, TO EXERCISE ALL SUCH VOTING, CONSENSUAL AND OTHER RIGHTS AND POWERS TO WHICH ANY HOLDER OF ANY PLEDGED INTERESTS WOULD BE ENTITLED BY VIRTUE OF HOLDING THE SAME, WHICH PROXY AND POWER OF ATTORNEY, BEING COUPLED WITH AN INTEREST, IS IRREVOCABLE AND SHALL BE EFFECTIVE FOR SO LONG AS THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE IN EFFECT; and

19

     (h) To sell, resell, assign and deliver, in its sole discretion, all or any of the Collateral, in one or more parcels, on any securities exchange on which any Pledged Interests may be listed, at public or private sale, at any of the Administrative Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery, at such time or times and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as the Administrative Agent may deem satisfactory. If any of the Collateral is sold by the Administrative Agent upon credit or for future delivery, the Administrative Agent shall not be liable for the failure of the purchaser to purchase or pay for the same and, in the event of any such failure, the Administrative Agent may resell such Collateral. In no event shall any Pledgor be credited with any part of the Proceeds of sale of any Collateral until and to the extent cash payment in respect thereof has actually been received by the Administrative Agent. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely, free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind, including any equity or right of redemption of any Pledgor, and each Pledgor hereby expressly waives all rights of redemption, stay or appraisal, and all rights to require the Administrative Agent to marshal any assets in favor of such Pledgor or any other party or against or in payment of any or all of the Secured Obligations, that it has or may have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter adopted. No demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law, as referred to below), all of which are hereby expressly waived by each Pledgor, shall be required in connection with any sale or other disposition of any part of the Collateral. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of any part of the Collateral shall be required under applicable law, the Administrative Agent shall give the applicable Pledgor at least ten (10) days’ prior notice of the time and place of any public sale and of the time after which any private sale or other disposition is to be made, which notice each Pledgor agrees is commercially reasonable. The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral if it shall determine not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of sale may have been given. The Administrative Agent may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which the same was so adjourned. Upon each public sale and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon each private sale, the Administrative Agent may purchase all or any of the Collateral being sold, free from any equity, right of redemption or other claim or demand, and may make payment therefor by endorsement and application (without recourse) of the Secured Obligations in lieu of cash as a credit on account of the purchase price for such Collateral.

     6.2 Application of Proceeds.

     (a) All Proceeds collected by the Administrative Agent upon any sale, other disposition of or realization upon any of the Collateral, together with all other moneys received by the Administrative Agent hereunder, shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.12 of the Credit Agreement. For purposes of applying amounts in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any Secured Party that has entered into a Permitted Hedge Agreement with the Borrower for a determination (which such Secured Party agrees to provide or cause to be provided upon request of the Administrative Agent) of the outstanding Secured Obligations owed to such Secured Party under any such Permitted Hedge Agreement. Unless it has actual knowledge (including by way of written notice from any such Secured Party) to the contrary, the Administrative Agent, in acting hereunder, shall be entitled to assume that no Permitted Hedge Agreements or Secured Obligations in respect thereof are in existence between any Secured Party and the Borrower. If any Lender or Affiliate thereof that is a party to a Permitted Hedge Agreement with the Borrower (the obligations of the Borrower under which are Secured Obligations) ceases to be a Lender or Affiliate thereof, such former Lender or Affiliate thereof shall nevertheless continue to be a Secured Party hereunder with respect to the Secured Obligations under such Permitted Hedge Agreement.

20

     (b) In the event that the proceeds of any such sale, disposition or realization are insufficient to pay all amounts to which the Secured Parties are legally entitled, the Pledgors shall be jointly and severally liable for the deficiency, together with interest thereon at the highest rate specified in any applicable Credit Document for interest on overdue principal or such other rate as shall be fixed by applicable law, together with the costs of collection and all other fees, costs and expenses payable hereunder.

     (c) Upon any sale of any Collateral hereunder by the Administrative Agent (whether by virtue of the power of sale herein granted, pursuant to judicial proceeding, or otherwise), the receipt of the Administrative Agent or the officer making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold, and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid over to the Administrative Agent or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication thereof.

     6.3 Collateral Accounts. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to cause to be established and maintained, at its principal office or such other location or locations as it may establish from time to time in its discretion, one or more accounts (collectively, “Collateral Accounts”) for the collection of cash Proceeds of the Collateral. Such Proceeds, when deposited, shall continue to constitute Collateral for the Secured Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as herein provided. The Administrative Agent shall have sole dominion and control over all funds deposited in any Collateral Account, and such funds may be withdrawn therefrom only by the Administrative Agent. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to (and, if directed by the Required Lenders pursuant to the Credit Agreement, shall) apply amounts held in the Collateral Accounts in payment of the Secured Obligations in the manner provided for in Section 6.2.

     6.4 Grant of License. Each Pledgor hereby grants to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to any Pledgor) to use, license or sublicense any Patent Collateral, Trademark Collateral or Copyright Collateral now owned or licensed or hereafter acquired or licensed by such Pledgor, wherever the same may be located throughout the world, for such term or terms, on such conditions and in such manner as the Administrative Agent shall determine, whether general, special or otherwise, and whether on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis, and including in such license reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof. The use of such license or sublicense by the Administrative Agent shall be exercised, at the option of the Administrative Agent, only upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default; provided that any license, sublicense or other transaction entered into by the Administrative Agent in accordance herewith shall be binding upon each applicable Pledgor notwithstanding any subsequent cure of an Event of Default.

21

     6.5 Private Sales.

     (a) Each Pledgor recognizes that the Administrative Agent may be compelled, at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to conduct any sale of all or any part of the Pledged Interests without registering or qualifying such Pledged Interests under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and/or any applicable state securities laws in effect at such time. Each Pledgor acknowledges that any such private sales may be made in such manner and under such circumstances as the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable in its sole and absolute discretion, including at prices and on terms that might be less favorable than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions (including, without limitation, a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act), and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such sale shall not be deemed not to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner solely because it was conducted as a private sale, and agrees that the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to conduct any public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Pledged Interests for the period of time necessary to permit its registration for public sale under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, and shall not have any responsibility or liability as a result of its election so not to conduct any such public sales or delay the sale of any Pledged Interests, notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially higher price might be realized if the sale were deferred until after such registration. Each Pledgor hereby waives any claims against the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any Pledged Interests may have been sold at any private sale was less than the price that might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the Secured Obligations, even if the Administrative Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Pledged Interests to more than one offeree.

     (b) Each Pledgor agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section will cause irreparable injury to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, that the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section shall be specifically enforceable against the Pledgors.

     6.6 The Pledgors Remain Liable. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty, obligation or liability by reason of this Agreement under any Contract to which any Pledgor is a party, and Pledgor shall retain all of its duties and obligations under all Contracts to which it is a party included within the Collateral (including, without limitation, all Ownership Agreements) to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed, (ii) the exercise by the Administrative Agent of any of its rights or remedies hereunder shall not release any Pledgor from any of its obligations under any of such Contracts, and (iii) except as specifically provided for hereinbelow, the Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any Pledgor thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder.

     The powers, rights and remedies conferred on the Administrative Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest and privilege in such Contracts, as Collateral, and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers, rights or remedies.

Each Pledgor, to the greatest extent not prohibited by applicable law, hereby (i) agrees that it will not invoke, claim or assert the benefit of any rule of law or statute now or hereafter in effect (including, without limitation, any right to prior notice or judicial hearing in connection with the Administrative Agent’s possession, custody or disposition of any Collateral or any appraisal, valuation, stay, extension, moratorium or redemption law), or take or omit to take any other action, that would or could reasonably be expected to have the effect of delaying, impeding or preventing the exercise of any rights and remedies in respect of the Collateral, the absolute sale of any of the Collateral or the possession thereof by any purchaser at any sale thereof, and waives the benefit of all such laws and further agrees that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power granted hereunder to the Administrative Agent, but that it will permit the execution of every such power as though no such laws were in effect, (ii) waives all rights that it has or may have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter adopted to require the Administrative Agent to marshal any Collateral or other assets in favor of such Pledgor or any other party or against or in payment of any or all of the Secured Obligations, and (iii) waives all rights that it has or may have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter adopted to demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except notices expressly provided for herein).

ARTICLE VII

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

     7.1 The Administrative Agent; Standard of Care. The Administrative Agent will hold all items of the Collateral at any time received under this Agreement in accordance with the provisions hereof. The obligations of the Administrative Agent as holder of the Collateral and interests therein and with respect to the disposition thereof, and otherwise under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, are only those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. The Administrative Agent shall act hereunder at the direction, or with the consent, of the Required Lenders on the terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement. The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest, on behalf of the Secured Parties, in the Collateral, and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for treatment of the Collateral in its possession in a manner substantially equivalent to that which the Administrative Agent, in its individual capacity, accords its own property of a similar nature, and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to the Collateral. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Secured Party shall be liable to any Pledgor (i) for any loss or damage sustained by such Pledgor, or (ii) for any loss, damage, depreciation or other diminution in the value of any of the Collateral that may occur as a result of or in connection with or that is in any way related to any exercise by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party of any right or remedy under this Agreement, any failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or any delay in doing so, or any other act or failure to act on the part of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party, except to the extent that the same is caused by its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

23

     7.2 Further Assurances; Attorney-in-Fact.

     (a) Each Pledgor hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent at any time and from time to time to file in any filing office in any Uniform Commercial Code jurisdiction any financing statements and amendments thereto that (a) indicate the Collateral (i) as all assets of such Pledgor or words of similar effect, regardless of whether any particular asset included within the Collateral falls within the scope of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code of any such jurisdiction, or (ii) as being of an equal or lesser scope or with greater detail, and (b) provide any other information required by Part 5 of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any financing statement or amendment.

     (b) Each Pledgor agrees that it will do such further acts and things (including, without limitation, making any notice filings with state tax or revenue authorities required to be made by account creditors in order to enforce any Accounts in such state) and to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent such additional conveyances, assignments, agreements and instruments as the Administrative Agent may reasonably require or deem advisable to perfect, establish, confirm and maintain the security interest and Lien provided for herein, to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to further assure and confirm unto the Administrative Agent its rights, powers and remedies hereunder.

     (c) Each Pledgor hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent its lawful attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Pledgor and in the name of such Pledgor, the Administrative Agent or otherwise, and with full power of substitution in the premises (which power of attorney, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable for so long as this Agreement shall be in effect), from time to time in the Administrative Agent’s discretion after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (except for the actions described in clause (i) below, which may be taken by the Administrative Agent without regard to whether an Event of Default has occurred) to take any action and to execute any instruments that the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purpose of this Agreement, including, without limitation:

     (i) to sign the name of such Pledgor on any financing statement, continuation statement, notice or other similar document that, in the Administrative Agent’s opinion, should be made or filed in order to perfect or continue perfected the security interest granted under this Agreement (including, without limitation, any title or ownership applications for filing with applicable state agencies to enable any motor vehicles now or hereafter owned by such Pledgor to be retitled and the Administrative Agent listed as lienholder thereon);

     (ii) to ask, demand, collect, xxx for, recover, compound, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any of the Collateral;

24

     (iii) to receive, endorse and collect any checks, drafts, Instruments, Chattel Paper and other orders for the payment of money made payable to such Pledgor representing any interest, income, dividend, distribution or other amount payable in respect of any of the Collateral and to give full discharge for the same;

     (iv) to obtain, maintain and adjust any property or casualty insurance required to be maintained by such Pledgor under Section 6.7 of the Credit Agreement and direct the payment of proceeds thereof to the Administrative Agent;

     (v) to pay or discharge taxes, Liens or other encumbrances levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral, the legality or validity thereof and the amounts necessary to discharge the same to be determined by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, any such payments made by the Administrative Agent to become Secured Obligations of the Pledgors to the Administrative Agent, due and payable immediately and without demand;

     (vi) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings that the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable for the collection of any of the Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of the Administrative Agent with respect to any of the Collateral; and

     (vii) to use, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any and all of the Collateral as fully and completely as though the Administrative Agent were the absolute owner of the Collateral for all purposes, and to do from time to time, at the Administrative Agent’s option and the Pledgors’ expense, all other acts and things deemed necessary by the Administrative Agent to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and to more completely carry out the purposes of this Agreement.

     (d) If any Pledgor fails to perform any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement after written request to do so by the Administrative Agent (provided that no such request shall be necessary at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default), the Administrative Agent may itself perform, or cause the performance of, such covenant or agreement and may take any other action that it deems necessary and appropriate for the maintenance and preservation of the Collateral or its security interest therein, and the reasonable expenses so incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by the Pledgors under Section 8.1.

ARTICLE VIII

MISCELLANEOUS

     8.1 Indemnity and Expenses. The Pledgors agree jointly and severally:

     (a) To indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, each other Secured Party and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and affiliates from and against any and all claims, damages, demands, losses, obligations, judgments and liabilities (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) in any way arising out of or in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, except to the extent the same shall arise as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party seeking to be indemnified; and

25

     (b) To pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Administrative Agent and to reimburse the Administrative Agent upon demand for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by it, in each case in connection with (i) the creation, perfection and maintenance of the perfection of the Administrative Agent’s Liens upon the Collateral, including, without limitation, Lien search, filing and recording fees, (ii) the custody, use or preservation of, or the sale of, collection from or other realization upon, any of the Collateral, including the reasonable expenses of re-taking, holding, preparing for sale or lease, selling or otherwise disposing of or realizing on the Collateral, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any rights or remedies granted hereunder, under any of the other Credit Documents or otherwise available to it (whether at law, in equity or otherwise), or (iv) the failure by any Pledgor to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof. The provisions of this Section shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the repayment of any of the Secured Obligations, the termination of the Commitments and the termination or expiration of all Letters of Credit under the Credit Agreement, the termination of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, and the termination of, and settlement of the Borrower’s obligations under, any Permitted Hedge Agreement to which any Hedge Party is a party.

     8.2 No Waiver. The rights and remedies of the Secured Parties expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents are cumulative and in addition to, and not exclusive of, all other rights and remedies available at law, in equity or otherwise. No failure or delay on the part of any Secured Party in exercising any right, power or privilege shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or Event of Default. No course of dealing between the Pledgors and the Secured Parties or their agents or employees shall be effective to amend, modify or discharge any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or to constitute a waiver of any Default or Event of Default. No notice to or demand upon any Pledgor in any case shall entitle such Pledgor or any other Pledgor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the right of any Secured Party to exercise any right or remedy or take any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

     8.3 Enforcement. By its acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement, each Lender agrees that this Agreement may be enforced only by the Administrative Agent, acting upon the instructions or with the consent of the Required Lenders as provided for in the Credit Agreement, and that no Lender shall have any right individually to enforce or seek to enforce this Agreement or to realize upon any Collateral or other security given to secure the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations.

     8.4 Amendments, Waivers, etc. No amendment, modification, waiver, discharge or termination of, or consent to any departure by any Pledgor from, any provision of this Agreement, shall be effective unless in a writing signed by the Administrative Agent and such of the Lenders as may be required under the provisions of the Credit Agreement to concur in the action then being taken, and then the same shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

26

     8.5 Continuing Security Interest; Term; Successors and Assigns; Assignment; Termination and Release; Survival. This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall secure the payment and performance of all of the Secured Obligations as the same may arise and be outstanding at any time and from time to time from and after the date hereof, and shall (i) remain in full force and effect until the occurrence of the Termination Requirements (as hereinafter defined), (ii) be binding upon and enforceable against each Pledgor and its successors and assigns (provided, however, that no Pledgor may sell, assign or transfer any of its rights, interests, duties or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Lenders) and (iii) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by each Secured Party and its successors and assigns. Upon any sale or other disposition by any Pledgor of any Collateral in a transaction expressly permitted hereunder or under or pursuant to the Credit Agreement or any other applicable Credit Document, the Lien and security interest created by this Agreement in and upon such Collateral shall be automatically released, and upon the satisfaction of all of the Termination Requirements, this Agreement and the Lien and security interest created hereby shall terminate (provided that the provisions of Section 6.7 shall survive the termination of this Agreement); and in connection with any such release or termination, the Administrative Agent, at the request and expense of the applicable Pledgor, will execute and deliver to such Pledgor such documents and instruments evidencing such release or termination as such Pledgor may reasonably request and will assign, transfer and deliver to such Pledgor, without recourse and without representation or warranty, such of the Collateral as may then be in the possession of the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of any partial release of Collateral, such of the Collateral so being released as may be in its possession). All representations, warranties, covenants and agreements herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and any Pledgor Accession. For purposes of this Agreement, “Termination Requirements” means (x) the payment in full in cash of the Secured Obligations (other than contingent and indemnification obligations not then due and payable), (y) the termination of the Commitments and the termination or expiration of all Letters of Credit under the Credit Agreement, and (z) the termination of, and settlement of all obligations of the Borrower under, each Permitted Hedge Agreement to which any Hedge Party is a party.

     8.6 Additional Pledgors. Each Pledgor recognizes that the provisions of the Credit Agreement require Persons that become Subsidiaries of the Borrower, and that are not already parties hereto, to execute and deliver a Pledgor Accession, whereupon each such Person shall become a Pledgor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally a Pledgor hereunder on the date hereof, and agrees that its obligations hereunder shall not be discharged, limited or otherwise affected by reason of the same, or by reason of the Administrative Agent’s actions in effecting the same or in releasing any Pledgor hereunder, in each case without the necessity of giving notice to or obtaining the consent of such Pledgor or any other Pledgor.

     8.7 Notices. All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be given to the parties in the manner and subject to the other notice provisions set forth in the Credit Agreement and the Guaranty Agreement.

27

     8.8 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of North Carolina (without regard to the conflicts of law provisions thereof).

     8.9 Severability. To the extent any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by or invalid under the applicable law of any jurisdiction, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity and only in such jurisdiction, without prohibiting or invalidating such provision in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions of this Agreement in any jurisdiction.

     8.10 Construction. The headings of the various sections and subsections of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any of the provisions hereof. Unless the context otherwise requires, words in the singular include the plural and words in the plural include the singular.

     8.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

GUARANTY AGREEMENT

     THIS GUARANTY AGREEMENT, dated as of the 30th day of March, 2011 (this “Guaranty”), is made by each of the undersigned Subsidiaries of XXXXXXX HYGIENE INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), and each other Subsidiary of the Borrower that, after the date hereof, executes an instrument of accession hereto substantially in the form of Exhibit A (a “Guarantor Accession”; the undersigned and such other Subsidiaries of the Borrower, collectively, the “Guarantors”), in favor of the Guaranteed Parties (as hereinafter defined). Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings given to them in the Credit Agreement referred to below.

RECITALS

     A. The Borrower, certain Lenders, and Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”), are parties to a Credit Agreement, dated as of March 30, 2011 (as amended, modified, restated or supplemented from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), providing for the availability of certain credit facilities to the Borrower upon the terms and conditions set forth therein.

     B. It is a condition to the extension of credit to the Borrower under the Credit Agreement that each Guarantor shall have agreed, by executing and delivering this Guaranty, to guarantee to the Guaranteed Parties the payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations (as hereinafter defined). The Guaranteed Parties are relying on this Guaranty in their decision to extend credit to the Borrower under the Credit Agreement, and would not enter into the Credit Agreement without this Guaranty.

     C. The Borrower and the Guarantors are engaged in related businesses and undertake certain activities and operations on an integrated basis. As part of such integrated operations, the Borrower, among other things, will advance to the Guarantors from time to time certain proceeds of the Loans made to the Borrower by the Lenders under the Credit Agreement. Each Guarantor will therefore obtain benefits as a result of the extension of credit to the Borrower under the Credit Agreement, which benefits are hereby acknowledged, and, accordingly, desires to execute and deliver this Guaranty.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, to induce the Guaranteed Parties to enter into the Credit Agreement and to induce the Lenders to extend credit to the Borrower thereunder, each Guarantor hereby agrees as follows:

     1. Guaranty.

     (a) Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally, and jointly and severally:

     (i) guarantees (A) to the Lenders (including the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender in their capacities as such) and the Administrative Agent (together with any Lender (or any Affiliate of any Lender) in the capacity described in clause (B) below, collectively, the “Guaranteed Parties”) the full and prompt payment, at any time and from time to time as and when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), of all Obligations of the Borrower under the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents, including, without limitation, all principal of and interest on the Loans, all Reimbursement Obligations, all fees, expenses, indemnities and other amounts payable by the Borrower under the Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document (including interest accruing after the filing of a petition or commencement of a case by or with respect to the Borrower seeking relief under any Insolvency Laws (as hereinafter defined), whether or not the claim for such interest is allowed in such proceeding), and all Obligations that, but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, would become due, and (B) to each applicable Lender or Affiliate of any Lender in its capacity as a Hedge Party under any Hedge Agreement that is required or permitted by the Credit Agreement to be entered into by the Borrower (a “Permitted Hedge Agreement”), all obligations of the Borrower under such Permitted Hedge Agreement, in each case under (A) and (B) whether now existing or hereafter created or arising and whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, due or to become due (all liabilities and obligations described in this clause (i), collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”); and

     (ii) agrees to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to, and reimburse upon demand all reasonable costs and expenses incurred or paid by, (y) any Guaranteed Party in connection with any suit, action or proceeding to enforce or protect any rights of the Guaranteed Parties hereunder and (z) the Administrative Agent in connection with any amendment, modification or waiver hereof or consent pursuant hereto, and to indemnify and hold each Guaranteed Party and its directors, officers, employees, agents and Affiliates harmless from and against any and all claims, losses, damages, obligations, liabilities, penalties, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) of any kind or nature whatsoever, whether direct, indirect or consequential, that may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such indemnified party as a result of, arising from or in any way relating to this Guaranty or the collection or enforcement of the Guaranteed Obligations; provided, however, that no indemnified party shall have the right to be indemnified hereunder for any such claims, losses, costs and expenses to the extent determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such indemnified party.

2

     (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (a) above and notwithstanding any other provisions contained herein or in any other Credit Document:

     (i) no provision of this Guaranty shall require or permit the collection from any Guarantor of interest in excess of the maximum rate or amount that such Guarantor may be required or permitted to pay pursuant to applicable law; and

     (ii) the liability of each Guarantor under this Guaranty as of any date shall be limited to a maximum aggregate amount (the “Maximum Guaranteed Amount”) equal to the greatest amount that would not render such Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty subject to avoidance, discharge or reduction as of such date as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under applicable federal and state laws pertaining to bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium, readjustment of debts, dissolution, liquidation or other debtor relief, specifically including, without limitation, the Bankruptcy Code and any fraudulent transfer and fraudulent conveyance laws (collectively, “Insolvency Laws”), in each instance after giving effect to all other liabilities of such Guarantor, contingent or otherwise, that are relevant under applicable Insolvency Laws (specifically excluding, however, any liabilities of such Guarantor in respect of intercompany indebtedness to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates to the extent that such indebtedness would be discharged in an amount equal to the amount paid by such Guarantor hereunder, and after giving effect as assets to the value (as determined under applicable Insolvency Laws) of any rights to subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or similar rights of such Guarantor pursuant to (y) applicable law or (z) any agreement (including this Guaranty) providing for an equitable allocation among such Guarantor and other Affiliates of the Borrower of obligations arising under guaranties by such parties).

     (c) The Guarantors desire to allocate among themselves, in a fair and equitable manner, their obligations arising under this Guaranty. Accordingly, in the event any payment or distribution is made hereunder on any date by a Guarantor (a “Funding Guarantor”) that exceeds its Fair Share (as hereinafter defined) as of such date, that Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each of the other Guarantors in the amount of such other Guarantor’s Fair Share Shortfall (as hereinafter defined) as of such date, with the result that all such contributions will cause each Guarantor’s Aggregate Payments (as hereinafter defined) to equal its Fair Share as of such date. “Fair Share” means, with respect to a Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (i) the ratio of (x) the Adjusted Maximum Guaranteed Amount (as hereinafter defined) with respect to such Guarantor to (y) the aggregate of the Adjusted Maximum Guaranteed Amounts with respect to all Guarantors, multiplied by (ii) the aggregate amount paid or distributed on or before such date by all Funding Guarantors hereunder in respect of the obligations guarantied. “Fair Share Shortfall” means, with respect to a Guarantor as of any date of determination, the excess, if any, of the Fair Share of such Guarantor over the Aggregate Payments of such Guarantor. “Adjusted Maximum Guaranteed Amount” means, with respect to a Guarantor as of any date of determination, the Maximum Guaranteed Amount of

3

such Guarantor, determined in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) above; provided that, solely for purposes of calculating the “Adjusted Maximum Guaranteed Amount” with respect to any Guarantor for purposes of this subsection (c), any assets or liabilities arising by virtue of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement or indemnity or any rights to or obligations of contribution hereunder shall not be considered as assets or liabilities of such Guarantor. “Aggregate Payments” means, with respect to a Guarantor as of any date of determination, the aggregate amount of all payments and distributions made on or before such date by such Guarantor in respect of this Guaranty (including, without limitation, in respect of this subsection (c)). The amounts payable as contributions hereunder shall be determined as of the date on which the related payment or distribution is made by the applicable Funding Guarantor. Each Funding Guarantor’s right of contribution under this subsection (c) shall be subject to the provisions of Section 4. The allocation among Guarantors of their obligations as set forth in this subsection (c) shall not be construed in any way to limit the liability of any Guarantor hereunder to the Guaranteed Parties.

     (d) The guaranty of each Guarantor set forth in this Section is a guaranty of payment as a primary obligor, and not a guaranty of collection. Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations, at any time and from time to time, may exceed the Maximum Guaranteed Amount of such Guarantor and may exceed the aggregate of the Maximum Guaranteed Amounts of all Guarantors, in each case without discharging, limiting or otherwise affecting the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder or the rights, powers and remedies of any Guaranteed Party hereunder or under any other Credit Document.

     2. Guaranty Absolute. Each Guarantor agrees that its obligations hereunder and under the other Credit Documents to which it is a party are irrevocable, absolute and unconditional, are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations and any Collateral or other security therefor or other guaranty or liability in respect thereof, whether given by such Guarantor or any other Person, and shall not be discharged, limited or otherwise affected by reason of any of the following, whether or not such Guarantor has notice or knowledge thereof:

     (i) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, any Guaranteed Obligations or any guaranty or other liability in respect thereof, or any amendment, modification or supplement to, restatement of, or consent to any rescission or waiver of or departure from, any provisions of the Credit Agreement, any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument delivered pursuant to any of the foregoing;

     (ii) the invalidity or unenforceability of any Guaranteed Obligations, any guaranty or other liability in respect thereof or any provisions of the Credit Agreement, any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument delivered pursuant to any of the foregoing;

     (iii) the addition or release of Guarantors hereunder or the taking, acceptance or release of other guarantees of any Guaranteed Obligations or additional Collateral or other security for any Guaranteed Obligations or for any guaranty or other liability in respect thereof;

4

     (iv) any discharge, modification, settlement, compromise or other action in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations or any guaranty or other liability in respect thereof, including any acceptance or refusal of any offer or performance with respect to the same or the subordination of the same to the payment of any other obligations;

     (v) any agreement not to pursue or enforce or any failure to pursue or enforce (whether voluntarily or involuntarily as a result of operation of law, court order or otherwise) any right or remedy in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations, any guaranty or other liability in respect thereof or any Collateral or other security for any of the foregoing; any sale, exchange, release, substitution, compromise or other action in respect of any such Collateral or other security; or any failure to create, protect, perfect, secure, insure, continue or maintain any Liens in any such Collateral or other security;

     (vi) the exercise of any right or remedy available under the Credit Documents, at law, in equity or otherwise in respect of any Collateral or other security for any Guaranteed Obligations or for any guaranty or other liability in respect thereof, in any order and by any manner thereby permitted, including, without limitation, foreclosure on any such Collateral or other security by any manner of sale thereby permitted, whether or not every aspect of such sale is commercially reasonable;

     (vii) any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, liquidation, insolvency, dissolution, termination, reorganization or like change in the corporate structure or existence of the Borrower or any other Person directly or indirectly liable for any Guaranteed Obligations;

     (viii) any manner of application of any payments by or amounts received or collected from any Person, by whomsoever paid and howsoever realized, whether in reduction of any Guaranteed Obligations or any other obligations of the Borrower or any other Person directly or indirectly liable for any Guaranteed Obligations, regardless of what Guaranteed Obligations may remain unpaid after any such application; or

     (ix) any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or a defense, set-off or counterclaim available to, the Borrower, any Guarantor or a surety or guarantor generally, other than the occurrence of all of the following: (x) the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent and indemnification obligations not then due and payable), (y) the termination of the Commitments and the termination or expiration of all Letters of Credit under the Credit Agreement, and (z) the termination of, and settlement of all obligations of the Borrower under, each Permitted Hedge Agreement to which any Hedge Party is a party (the events in clauses (x), (y) and (z) above, collectively, the “Termination Requirements”).

5

     3. Certain Waivers. Each Guarantor hereby knowingly, voluntarily and expressly waives:

     (i) presentment, demand for payment, demand for performance, protest and notice of any other kind, including, without limitation, notice of nonpayment or other nonperformance (including notice of default under any Credit Document with respect to any Guaranteed Obligations), protest, dishonor, acceptance hereof, extension of additional credit to the Borrower and of any of the matters referred to in Section 2 and of any rights to consent thereto;

     (ii) any right to require the Guaranteed Parties or any of them, as a condition of payment or performance by such Guarantor hereunder, to proceed against, or to exhaust or have resort to any Collateral or other security from or any deposit balance or other credit in favor of, the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person directly or indirectly liable for any Guaranteed Obligations, or to pursue any other remedy or enforce any other right; and any other defense based on an election of remedies with respect to any Collateral or other security for any Guaranteed Obligations or for any guaranty or other liability in respect thereof, notwithstanding that any such election (including any failure to pursue or enforce any rights or remedies) may impair or extinguish any right of indemnification, contribution, reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Guarantor against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person directly or indirectly liable for any Guaranteed Obligations or any such Collateral or other security; and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor hereby specifically waives the benefits of Sections 26-7 through 26-9, inclusive, of the General Statutes of North Carolina, as amended from time to time, and any similar statute or law of any other jurisdiction, as the same may be amended from time to time;

     (iii) any right or defense based on or arising by reason of any right or defense of the Borrower or any other Person, including, without limitation, any defense based on or arising from a lack of authority or other disability of the Borrower or any other Person, the invalidity or unenforceability of any Guaranteed Obligations, any Collateral or other security therefor or any Credit Document or other agreement or instrument delivered pursuant thereto, or the cessation of the liability of the Borrower for any reason other than the satisfaction of the Termination Requirements;

     (iv) any defense based on any Guaranteed Party’s acts or omissions in the administration of the Guaranteed Obligations, any guaranty or other liability in respect thereof or any Collateral or other security for any of the foregoing, and promptness, diligence or any requirement that any Guaranteed Party create, protect, perfect, secure, insure, continue or maintain any Liens in any such Collateral or other security;

     (v) any right to assert against any Guaranteed Party, as a defense, counterclaim, crossclaim or set-off, any defense, counterclaim, claim, right of recoupment or set-off that it may at any time have against any Guaranteed Party (including, without limitation, failure of consideration, fraud, fraudulent inducement, statute of limitations, payment, accord and satisfaction and usury), other than compulsory counterclaims and other than the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations; and

6

     (vi) any defense based on or afforded by any applicable law that limits the liability of or exonerates guarantors or sureties or that may in any other way conflict with the terms of this Guaranty.

     4. No Subrogation. Each Guarantor hereby waives, and agrees that it will not exercise or seek to exercise, any claim or right that it may have against the Borrower or any other Guarantor at any time as a result of any payment made under or in connection with this Guaranty or the performance or enforcement hereof, including any right of subrogation to the rights of any of the Guaranteed Parties against the Borrower or any other Guarantor, any right of indemnity, contribution or reimbursement against the Borrower or any other Guarantor (including rights of contribution as set forth in Section 1(c)), any right to enforce any remedies of any Guaranteed Party against the Borrower or any other Guarantor, or any benefit of, or any right to participate in, any Collateral or other security held by any Guaranteed Party to secure payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, in each case whether such claims or rights arise by contract, statute (including without limitation the Bankruptcy Code), common law or otherwise; provided, however, that a Guarantor may enforce the rights of contribution set forth in Section 1(c) after satisfaction of the Termination Requirements. Each Guarantor further agrees that all indebtedness and other obligations, whether now or hereafter existing, of the Borrower or any other Subsidiary of the Borrower to such Guarantor, including, without limitation, any such indebtedness in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code and any intercompany receivables, together with any interest thereon, shall be, and hereby are, subordinated and made junior in right of payment to the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor further agrees that if any amount shall be paid to or any distribution received by any Guarantor (i) on account of any such indebtedness at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, or (ii) on account of any rights of contribution at any time prior to the satisfaction of the Termination Requirements, such amount or distribution shall be deemed to have been received and to be held in trust for the benefit of the Guaranteed Parties, and shall forthwith be delivered to the Administrative Agent in the form received (with any necessary endorsements in the case of written instruments), to be applied against the Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not matured, in accordance with the terms of the applicable Credit Documents and without in any way discharging, limiting or otherwise affecting the liability of such Guarantor under any other provision of this Guaranty. Additionally, in the event the Borrower or any other Credit Party becomes a “debtor” within the meaning of the Bankruptcy Code, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled, at its option, on behalf of the Guaranteed Parties and as attorney-in-fact for each Guarantor, and is hereby authorized and appointed by each Guarantor, to file proofs of claim on behalf of each relevant Guarantor and vote the rights of each such Guarantor in any plan of reorganization, and to demand, xxx for, collect and receive every payment and distribution on any indebtedness of the Borrower or such Credit Party to any Guarantor in any such proceeding, each Guarantor hereby assigning to the Administrative Agent all of its rights in respect of any such claim, including the right to receive payments and distributions in respect thereof.

     5. Representations and Warranties. Each Guarantor hereby represents and warrants to the Guaranteed Parties that, as to itself, all of the representations and warranties relating to it contained in the Credit Agreement are true and correct.

7

     6. Financial Condition of Borrower. Each Guarantor represents that it has knowledge of the Borrower’s financial condition and affairs and that it has adequate means to obtain from the Borrower on an ongoing basis information relating thereto and to the Borrower’s ability to pay and perform the Guaranteed Obligations, and agrees to assume the responsibility for keeping, and to keep, so informed for so long as this Guaranty is in effect with respect to such Guarantor. Each Guarantor agrees that the Guaranteed Parties shall have no obligation to investigate the financial condition or affairs of the Borrower for the benefit of any Guarantor nor to advise any Guarantor of any fact respecting, or any change in, the financial condition or affairs of the Borrower that might become known to any Guaranteed Party at any time, whether or not such Guaranteed Party knows or believes or has reason to know or believe that any such fact or change is unknown to any Guarantor, or might (or does) materially increase the risk of any Guarantor as guarantor, or might (or would) affect the willingness of any Guarantor to continue as a guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations.

     7. Payments; Application; Set-Off.

     (a) Each Guarantor agrees that, upon the failure of the Borrower to pay any Guaranteed Obligations when and as the same shall become due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), and without limitation of any other right or remedy that any Guaranteed Party may have at law, in equity or otherwise against such Guarantor, such Guarantor will, subject to the provisions of Section 1(b), forthwith pay or cause to be paid to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Guaranteed Parties, an amount equal to the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations then due and owing as aforesaid.

     (b) All payments made by each Guarantor hereunder will be made in Dollars to the Administrative Agent, without set-off, counterclaim or other defense and, in accordance with the Credit Agreement, free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes, each Guarantor hereby agreeing to comply with and be bound by the provisions of the Credit Agreement in respect of all payments made by it hereunder.

     (c) All payments made hereunder shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.12 of the Credit Agreement. For purposes of applying amounts in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any Guaranteed Party that has entered into a Permitted Hedge Agreement with the Borrower for a determination (which such Guaranteed Party agrees to provide or cause to be provided upon request of the Administrative Agent) of the outstanding Guaranteed Obligations owed to such Guaranteed Party under any such Permitted Hedge Agreement. Unless it has actual knowledge (including by way of written notice from any such Guaranteed Party) to the contrary, the Administrative Agent, in acting hereunder, shall be entitled to assume that no Permitted Hedge Agreements or Guaranteed Obligations in respect thereof are in existence between any Guaranteed Party and the Borrower. If any Lender or Affiliate thereof that is a party to a Permitted Hedge Agreement with the Borrower (the obligations of the Borrower under which are Guaranteed Obligations) ceases to be a Lender or Affiliate thereof, such former Lender or Affiliate thereof shall nevertheless continue to be a Guaranteed Party hereunder with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations under such Permitted Hedge Agreement.

8

     (d) In the event that the proceeds of any such sale, disposition or realization are insufficient to pay all amounts to which the Guaranteed Parties are legally entitled, the Guarantors shall be jointly and severally liable for the deficiency, together with interest thereon at the highest rate specified in any applicable Credit Document for interest on overdue principal or such other rate as shall be fixed by applicable law, together with the costs of collection and all other fees, costs and expenses payable hereunder.

     (e) Upon and at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Guaranteed Party and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Guaranteed Party or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Guarantor against any and all of the obligations of such Guarantor now or hereafter existing under this Guaranty or any other Credit Document to such Guaranteed Party, irrespective of whether or not such Guaranteed Party shall have made any demand under this Guaranty or any other Credit Document and although such obligations of such Guarantor may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Guaranteed Party different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each Guaranteed Party and their respective Affiliates under this subsection are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Guaranteed Parties or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Guaranteed Party agrees to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

     8. No Waiver. The rights and remedies of the Guaranteed Parties expressly set forth in this Guaranty and the other Credit Documents are cumulative and in addition to, and not exclusive of, all other rights and remedies available at law, in equity or otherwise. No failure or delay on the part of any Guaranteed Party in exercising any right, power or privilege shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or Event of Default. No course of dealing between any of the Guarantors and the Guaranteed Parties or their agents or employees shall be effective to amend, modify or discharge any provision of this Guaranty or any other Credit Document or to constitute a waiver of any Default or Event of Default. No notice to or demand upon any Guarantor in any case shall entitle such Guarantor or any other Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the right of any Guaranteed Party to exercise any right or remedy or take any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

     9. Enforcement. The Guaranteed Parties agree that, except as provided in Section 7(e), this Guaranty may be enforced only by the Administrative Agent, acting upon the instructions or with the consent of the Required Lenders as provided for in the Credit Agreement, and that no Guaranteed Party shall have any right individually to enforce or seek to enforce this Guaranty or to realize upon any Collateral or other security given to secure the payment and performance of the Guarantors’ obligations hereunder. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations, and a separate action or actions may be brought against each Guarantor whether or not action is brought against the Borrower or any other Guarantor and whether or not the Borrower or any other Guarantor is joined in any such action. Each Guarantor agrees that to the extent all or part of any payment of the Guaranteed

9

Obligations made by any Person is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid by or on behalf of any Guaranteed Party to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any Insolvency Laws (the amount of any such payment, a “Reclaimed Amount”), then, to the extent of such Reclaimed Amount, this Guaranty shall continue in full force and effect or be revived and reinstated, as the case may be, as to the Guaranteed Obligations intended to be satisfied as if such payment had not been received; and each Guarantor acknowledges that the term “Guaranteed Obligations” includes all Reclaimed Amounts that may arise from time to time.

     10. Amendments, Waivers, etc. No amendment, modification, waiver, discharge or termination of, or consent to any departure by any Guarantor from, any provision of this Guaranty, shall be effective unless in a writing signed by the Administrative Agent and such of the Lenders as may be required under the provisions of the Credit Agreement to concur in the action then being taken, and then the same shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

     11. Addition, Release of Guarantors. Each Guarantor recognizes that the provisions of the Credit Agreement require Persons that become Subsidiaries of the Borrower and that are not already parties hereto to become Guarantors hereunder by executing a Guarantor Accession (subject to certain excepts regarding Foreign Subsidiaries), and agrees that its obligations hereunder shall not be discharged, limited or otherwise affected by reason of the same, or by reason of the Administrative Agent’s actions in effecting the same or in releasing any Guarantor hereunder, in each case without the necessity of giving notice to or obtaining the consent of any other Guarantor.

     12. Continuing Guaranty; Term; Successors and Assigns; Assignment; Survival. This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and covers all of the Guaranteed Obligations as the same may arise and be outstanding at any time and from time to time from and after the date hereof, and shall (i) remain in full force and effect until satisfaction of all of the Termination Requirements (provided that the provisions of Sections 1(a)(ii) and 4 shall survive any termination of this Guaranty), (ii) be binding upon and enforceable against each Guarantor and its successors and assigns (provided, however, that no Guarantor may sell, assign or transfer any of its rights, interests, duties or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders) and (iii) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by each Guaranteed Party and its successors and assigns. Without limiting the generality of clause (iii) above, any Guaranteed Party may, in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, assign all or a portion of the Guaranteed Obligations held by it (including by the sale of participations), whereupon each Person that becomes the holder of any such Guaranteed Obligations shall (except as may be otherwise agreed between such Guaranteed Party and such Person) have and may exercise all of the rights and benefits in respect thereof granted to such Guaranteed Party under this Guaranty or otherwise. Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives notice of and consents in advance to the assignment as provided above from time to time by any Guaranteed Party of all or any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations held by it and of the corresponding rights and interests of such Guaranteed Party hereunder in connection therewith. All representations, warranties, covenants and agreements herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Guaranty and any Guarantor Accession.

10

     13. Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Appointment of Borrower as Representative, Process Agent, Attorney-in-Fact.

     (a) This Guaranty shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of North Carolina (without regard to the conflicts of law provisions thereof).

     (b) Each Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of North Carolina sitting in Mecklenburg County and of the United States District Court of the Western District of North Carolina, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guaranty or any other Credit Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such state court or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in such federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Guaranty or in any other Credit Document shall affect any right that any Guaranteed Party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Guaranty or any other Credit Document against any Guarantor or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

     (c) Each Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guaranty or any other Credit Document in any court referred to in Section 13(b). Each of the parties hereto hereby 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 Guarantor hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Borrower as its designee, appointee and agent to receive on its behalf all service of process in any such action or proceeding and any other notice or communication hereunder, irrevocably consents to service of process in any such action or proceeding by registered or certified mail directed to the Borrower at its address set forth in the Credit Agreement (and service so made shall be deemed to be completed upon the earlier of actual receipt thereof or three (3) business days after deposit in the United States mails, proper postage prepaid and properly addressed), and irrevocably agrees that service so made shall be effective and binding upon such Guarantor in every respect and that any other notice or communication given to the Borrower at the address and in the manner specified herein shall be effective notice to such Guarantor. Nothing in this Section shall affect the right of any party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or affect the right of any Guaranteed Party to bring any action or proceeding against any Guarantor in the courts of any other jurisdiction.

     (e) Further, each Guarantor does hereby irrevocably make, constitute and appoint the Borrower as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with full authority in its place and stead and in its name, the Borrower’s name or otherwise, and with full power of substitution in the premises, from time to time in the Borrower’s discretion to agree on behalf of, and sign the name of, such

11

Guarantor to any amendment, modification or supplement to, restatement of, or waiver or consent in connection with, this Guaranty, any other Credit Document or any document or instrument pursuant hereto or thereto, and to take any other action and do all other things on behalf of such Guarantor that the Borrower may deem necessary or advisable to carry out and accomplish the purposes of this Guaranty and the other Credit Documents. The Borrower will not be liable for any act or omission nor for any error of judgment or mistake of fact unless the same shall occur as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Borrower. This power, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable by any Guarantor for so long as this Guaranty shall be in effect with respect to such Guarantor. By its signature hereto, the Borrower consents to its appointment as provided for herein and agrees promptly to distribute all process, notices and other communications to each Guarantor.

     14. Arbitration; Preservation and Limitation of Remedies.

     (a) Upon demand of any party hereto, whether made before or after institution of any judicial proceeding, any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of, connected with or relating to this Guaranty or any other Credit Document (“Disputes”) between or among the Guarantors and the Guaranteed Parties, or any of them, shall be resolved by binding arbitration as provided herein. Institution of a judicial proceeding by a party does not waive the right of that party to demand arbitration hereunder. Disputes may include, without limitation, tort claims, counterclaims, claims brought as class actions, claims arising from documents executed in the future, disputes as to whether a matter is subject to arbitration, or claims arising out of or connected with the transactions contemplated by this Guaranty, the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents. Arbitration shall be conducted under and governed by the Commercial Financial Disputes Arbitration Rules (the “Arbitration Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”), as in effect from time to time, and the Federal Arbitration Act, Title 9 of the U.S. Code, as amended. All arbitration hearings shall be conducted in the city in which the principal office of the Administrative Agent is located. A hearing shall begin within ninety (90) days of demand for arbitration and all hearings shall be concluded within 120 days of demand for arbitration. These time limitations may not be extended unless a party shows cause for extension and then for no more than a total of sixty (60) days. The expedited procedures set forth in Rule 51 et seq. of the Arbitration Rules shall be applicable to claims of less than $1,000,000. All applicable statutes of limitation shall apply to any Dispute. A judgment upon the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The panel from which all arbitrators are selected shall be comprised of licensed attorneys selected from the Commercial Financial Dispute Arbitration Panel of the AAA. The single arbitrator selected for expedited procedure shall be a retired judge from the highest court of general jurisdiction, state or federal, of the state where the hearing will be conducted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this arbitration provision does not apply to Disputes under or related to any Hedge Agreement. The parties do not waive applicable federal or state substantive law except as provided herein.

     (b) Notwithstanding the preceding binding arbitration provisions, the parties hereto agree to preserve, without diminution, certain remedies that any party hereto may employ or exercise freely, either alone, in conjunction with or during a Dispute. Any party hereto shall have the right to proceed in any court of proper jurisdiction or by self-help to exercise or prosecute the following remedies, as applicable: (i) all rights to foreclose against any Collateral by exercising a power of sale granted pursuant to any of the Credit Documents or under

12

applicable law or by judicial foreclosure and sale, including a proceeding to confirm the sale; (ii) all rights of self-help, including peaceful occupation of real property and collection of rents, set-off, and peaceful possession of personal property; (iii) obtaining provisional or ancillary remedies, including injunctive relief, sequestration, garnishment, attachment, appointment of a receiver and filing an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding; and (iv) when applicable, a judgment by confession of judgment. Any claim or controversy with regard to any party’s entitlement to such remedies is a Dispute. Preservation of these remedies does not limit the power of an arbitrator to grant similar remedies that may be requested by a party in a Dispute. The parties hereto agree that no party shall have a remedy of punitive or exemplary damages against any other party in any Dispute, and each party hereby waives any right or claim to punitive or exemplary damages that it has now or that may arise in the future in connection with any Dispute, whether such Dispute is resolved by arbitration or judicially. The parties acknowledge that by agreeing to binding arbitration they have irrevocably waived any right they may have to a jury trial with regard to a Dispute. The Guarantors agree, jointly and severally, to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Guaranteed Parties in connection with any Dispute subject to arbitration as provided herein.

     15. Notices.

Notices sent by hand or overnight courier service, or mailed by certified or registered mail, shall be deemed to have been given when received; notices sent by telecopier shall be deemed to have been given when sent (except that, if not given during normal business hours for the recipient, shall be deemed to have been given at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient). Notices delivered through electronic communications to the extent provided in the Credit Agreement shall be effective as provided therein.

     16. Severability. To the extent any provision of this Guaranty is prohibited by or invalid under the applicable law of any jurisdiction, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity and only in such jurisdiction, without prohibiting or invalidating such provision in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions of this Guaranty in any jurisdiction.

     17. Construction. The headings of the various sections and subsections of this Guaranty have been inserted for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any of the provisions hereof. Unless the context otherwise requires, words in the singular include the plural and words in the plural include the singular.

     18. Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Guaranty may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. This Guaranty shall become effective, as to any Guarantor, upon the execution and delivery by such Guarantor of a counterpart hereof or a Guarantor Accession.
