THE FACILITIES

Section 2.1. The Facilities.

(a) Revolving Loans. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, from time to time during the period from the Closing Date to the Commitment Termination Date, each Revolving Lender, severally and not jointly, agrees to advance funds to the Borrower (each a “Revolving Credit Advance”); provided that immediately after each such Advance is made (and after giving effect to any substantially concurrent application of the proceeds thereof to repay outstanding Advances, Reimbursement Obligations or Swingline Loans):

(i) such Revolving Lender’s Outstanding Revolving Amount shall not exceed its Revolving Credit Commitment, and

(ii) the aggregate Outstanding Revolving Amount of all the Revolving Lenders shall not exceed the Revolving Credit Limit then in effect.

Each Revolving Credit Advance shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 or integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof. The several Revolving Lenders shall make each Revolving Credit Advance under this subsection ratably in proportion to their respective Revolving Credit Commitments. Within the limits specified in this subsection and subject to the conditions set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow pursuant to this subsection, repay such Advances and reborrow pursuant to this subsection. The Revolving Credit Commitment of each Revolving Lender shall terminate at the opening of business on the Commitment Termination Date, and there shall become due and the Borrower shall pay on the Commitment Termination Date, the entire outstanding principal amount of each Revolving Loan and of each L/C Obligation, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon to but excluding the Commitment Termination Date.

(b) Swingline Facility. The Swingline Lender agrees to advance funds to the Borrower (each a “Swingline Advance”), and the Revolving Lenders agree to purchase participations therein from time to time, all upon the terms and conditions specified in Section 2.6.

(c) Letter of Credit Facility. The Revolving Lenders agree to incur, or purchase participations in, L/C Obligations incurred by the L/C Issuer upon the terms and subject to the conditions specified in Section 2.5.

(d) Reserves; Borrowing Base Adjustment. The Administrative Agent shall have the right to establish, modify or eliminate Reserves against the Revolving Credit Limit, the Borrowing Base or any component thereof from time to time in its reasonable credit judgment; provided that, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing both immediately before and after giving effect to any Reserve, the Administrative Agent shall give 10 days prior written notice to Borrower of the establishment, modification or elimination of such Reserve. In addition, Administrative Agent reserves the right, at any time and from time to time after the Closing Date, to adjust any of the criteria used to determine eligibility of any component of the Borrowing Base, to establish new criteria, to adjust Collection Values, and to adjust advance rates with respect to such component, in its reasonable credit judgment, subject to the approval of the Required Lenders in the case of adjustments or new criteria or changes in advance rates or the elimination of Reserves which have the effect of making more credit available to the Borrower.

Section 2.2. Notes.

(a) Revolving Notes. The Revolving Loan of each Revolving Lender shall be evidenced by a single revolving note, substantially in the form of Exhibit A (each such note, a “Revolving Note”), dated the Closing Date in an aggregate principal amount equal to the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment, duly executed and delivered and payable by the Borrower to such Revolving Lender. Each Revolving Lender shall record the date and amount of each Revolving Credit Advance made by it, and the date and amount of each payment of principal made by the Borrower with respect thereto, and prior to any transfer of its Revolving Note shall endorse on Schedule A thereto (or any continuation thereof) forming a part thereof appropriate notations to evidence the foregoing information with respect to such Revolving Loan then outstanding; provided that the failure of any Lender to make any such recordation or endorsement shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under any Revolving Note. Each Revolving Lender is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Borrower to so endorse its Revolving Note and to attach to and make a part of its Revolving Note a continuation of any such schedule as and when required.

(b) Swingline Notes. The Swingline Loan shall be evidenced by a swingline note substantially in the form of Exhibit B (such note, the “Swingline Note”), dated the Closing Date in a principal amount equal to the Swingline Commitment or the portion of such Swingline Loan assigned to any Lender in accordance with Section 11.6, duly executed and delivered by the Borrower and payable to the Swingline Lender or other holder of such Swingline Loan.

Section 2.3. Method of Borrowing; Funding of Loans; Administrative Agent May Assume Funding; Failure to Fund.

(a) Method of Borrowing. Whenever the Borrower desires to receive an Advance, including the initial Advance, or to convert any portion of the outstanding Base Rate Loans into one or more LIBOR Borrowings (a “Conversion”), or to continue all or any portion of an outstanding LIBOR Loan for another or additional LIBOR Period (a “Continuation”), it shall give the Administrative Agent notice in writing (by telecopy or by telephone confirmed immediately in writing) in the form of a duly completed Exhibit C-1 (a “Notice of Borrowing”) duly executed by an Authorized Signatory, in the case of an Advance or Continuation of, or a Conversion into, a LIBOR Borrowing, three (3) Business Days before the requested date of such Advance, Conversion or Continuation, and in the case of an Advance of a Base Rate Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day before the requested date of such Advance (which shall be a Business Day). Such Notice of Borrowing shall specify (i) the requested date of the Advance, Conversion or Continuation, which shall be a Business Day, (ii) in the case of a Conversion or Continuation, which existing Borrowings include the Loans or portions thereof to be affected by such Notice, (iii) the amount of the Advances to be incurred, and/or the Borrowings to be created by such Conversion or Continuation, (iv) the Class of the Loans comprising each requested Borrowing, (v) in the case of a LIBOR Advance, Conversion or Continuation, the duration of the LIBOR Period of the requested Borrowing and (vi) such other information as the Administrative Agent shall request. If a request for a Conversion or Continuation is not timely made prior to the expiration of a LIBOR Period, or is not made in accordance with this Section, the portions of the Loans proposed to be affected thereby shall be converted into, or continued as, Base Rate Loans. Any Notice of Borrowing received after 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) shall be deemed received on the following Business Day. Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable upon receipt by the Administrative Agent.

(b) Funding of Loans. Promptly after receiving a Notice of Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the contents of such Notice of Borrowing, of such Lender’s Percentage of the Advances or Borrowings requested by such Notice of Borrowing and, in the case of a LIBOR Borrowing, the applicable LIBOR Period. In the case of an Advance, each Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office its Lender’s Percentage of such requested Advance, in lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available funds, prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the specified date. The Administrative Agent shall, unless it shall have determined that one of the conditions set forth in Article III has not been satisfied, by 3:00 p.m. (or in the case of a LIBOR Borrowing, 12 p.m.) (New York City time) on such day, credit the amounts received by it in like funds to the Borrower Account, to repay Swingline Loans, to repay Reimbursement Obligations, to pay expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent for the Borrower’s account or in such other manner as the Administrative Agent shall determine.

(c) Administrative Agent May Assume Funding. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any particular Advance that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Percentage of such Advance, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to it on the date of such Advance in accordance with subsection (b) of this Section 2.3, and may (but shall not be obligated to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available a corresponding amount for the account of the Borrower on such date. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such amount available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the day such amount is made available to the Borrower until the day such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower, a rate per annum equal to the greater of (x) the Federal Funds Rate and (y) the interest rate applicable thereto pursuant to Section 2.4, and (ii) in the case of such Lender, a rate per annum equal to (x) for each day from the day such amount is made available to the Borrower through the third succeeding Business Day, the Federal Funds Rate for such day as determined by the Administrative Agent and (y) for each day thereafter until the day such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, the Base Rate for such day. If such Lender shall repay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent, the amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement.

(d) Lender’s Failure to Fund. The failure of any Lender to make an Advance on the date of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder, if any, to make its Advance on that date. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Person to make any Advance hereunder on the date required therefor.

Section 2.4. Interest on Loans.

(a) Interest. Each Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the date of the applicable Advance until repaid in full, whether before or after default, judgment or the institution of proceedings under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, as provided in this Section 2.4. Unless the Default Rate has been imposed, each Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof until due at a rate per annum equal to (i) to the extent and so long as it is a Base Rate Loan, the Base Rate as in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Margin, and (ii) to the extent and so long as it is a LIBOR Loan, the LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(b) Interest Options. Subject to the provisions hereof, all or portions of the Loans, at the option of the Borrower, may be made or Continued as, or Converted into, Base Rate Loans or one or more LIBOR Loan, or any combination thereof; provided that LIBOR Loans may not be Converted, but may be Continued, and such Continuation may occur on (and only on) the last day of an applicable LIBOR Period; provided, further, that Loans of any Class may only be part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans of the same Class; and

provided, further, that no Advances shall be made as part of, and no Loans shall be Continued as, LIBOR Loans, and all existing LIBOR Loans shall be Converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day of the applicable LIBOR Period, so long as a Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Each LIBOR Borrowing shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and in greater whole multiples of $500,000. There shall at no time be in effect more than five (5) LIBOR Borrowings.

(c) Post-Default Interest. During the period that any Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, at the election of the Administrative Agent (or at the written request of Required Lenders), all Loans and other outstanding Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate.

(d) Payments. Interest due pursuant to this Agreement shall be payable (i) in the case of any Loans, on the Interest Payment Date, and (ii) in the case of any other Obligation, when any portion of such Obligation shall be due (whether at maturity, by reason of prepayment or acceleration or otherwise), but only to the extent then accrued on the amount then so due. Interest at the Default Rate shall be payable on demand.

(e) Determination. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of the interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent clear and convincing evidence to the contrary.

Section 2.5. Letters of Credit.

(a) Letters of Credit. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, from time to time during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the date that is thirty (30) days prior to the Commitment Termination Date, the Revolving Credit Commitment may, in addition to Advances under the Revolving Loan, be utilized, upon the request of Borrower, for (i) the issuance of standby letters of credit for the account of Borrower by GE Capital or any other L/C Issuer approved by the Administrative Agent, (ii) the issuance of commercial letters of credit for the account of Borrower by any L/C Issuer other than GE Capital approved by Administrative Agent or (iii) the issuance of standby letters of credit or commercial letters of credit for the account of Borrower under risk participation agreements entered into by GE Capital, as L/C Issuer, with other banks or financial institutions (the letters of credit described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) will be referred to hereinafter collectively as “Letters of Credit” (this term does not include a Swap Related L/C)). Immediately upon the issuance by a L/C Issuer of a Letter of Credit, and without further action on the part of Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have purchased from such L/C Issuer a participation in such Letter of Credit (or in its obligation under a risk participation agreement with respect thereto) equal to such Revolving Lender’s Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. Immediately after each such Letter of Credit is issued and participations therein are sold to the Revolving Lenders as provided in this subsection:

(i) the Aggregate L/C Exposure shall not exceed the L/C Limit;

(ii) in the case of each Revolving Lender, its Outstanding Revolving Amount shall not exceed its Revolving Credit Commitment; and

(iii) the aggregate Outstanding Revolving Amount of all the Lenders shall not exceed the lesser of the Maximum Commitment Amount or the Borrowing Base then in effect.

If required to obtain such issuance by an L/C Issuer that is not Administrative Agent, an affiliate or a subsidiary thereof or a Lender, Administrative Agent agrees to enter into risk participation agreements with respect to the obligations of the Borrower under the Letter of Credit pursuant to which Administrative Agent acquires the credit risk with respect to the Borrower’s payment and performance of its obligations arising under and with respect to such Letter of Credit to the L/C Issuer. Upon any such issuance and/or entering in to a risk participation agreement, without further action by any party hereto, (x) each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have purchased from Administrative Agent and/or such L/C Issuer, and (y) such L/C Issuer and/or Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have sold to each Revolving Lender, a participation in the then existing or thereafter arising Reimbursement Obligations with respect to such Letter of Credit, on the terms specified in this Agreement, in each case equal to such Revolving Lender’s Percentage thereof.

(b) Permitted Terms. Each Letter of Credit must (i) support a transaction entered into in the ordinary course of business of the Borrower and (ii) be in a form, for an amount and contain such terms and conditions as are reasonably satisfactory to each of the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion. No Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date later than the close of business on the earlier of: (A) the date that is one (1) year after such Letter of Credit is issued (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one (1) year after the expiration of such renewal or extension) and (B) the date that is thirty (30) Business Days prior to the Commitment Termination Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Letter of Credit may provide for automatic extensions of its expiration date for one (1) or more successive one year periods; provided that the L/C Issuer that issued such Letter of Credit has the right to terminate such Letter of Credit on each such annual expiration date and no renewal term may extend the term of the Letter of Credit to a date that is later than thirty (30) Business Days prior to the Commitment Termination Date.

(c) Request for Issuance of Letter of Credit. The Borrower shall give Administrative Agent at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice requesting the issuance of any Letter of Credit. The notice shall be accompanied by the form of the Letter of Credit (which shall be acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer) and a completed Application for Standby Letter of Credit or Application for Agreement for Documentary Letter of Credit, in the form of Exhibit D or E, respectively, and shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Master Standby Agreement or the Master Documentary Agreement (as applicable).

(d) Notice of Proposed Extensions of Expiration Dates. The L/C Issuer or the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at least three (3) Business Days’ notice

before such L/C Issuer extends (or allows an automatic extension of) the expiration date of any Letter of Credit issued by it (whether such extension results from a request therefor by the Borrower or, in the case of an evergreen Letter of Credit, from the absence of a request by the Borrower for the termination thereof). Such notice shall (i) identify such Letter of Credit, (ii) specify the date on which such extension is to be made (or the last day on which such L/C Issuer can give notice to prevent such extension from occurring) and (iii) specify the date to which such expiration date is to be so extended. Upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender of the contents thereof. No L/C Issuer shall extend (or allow the extension of) the expiration date of any Letter of Credit if (x) the extended expiration date would be after (A) the date that is one (1) year after the date on which such Letter of Credit is to be extended or (B) the date that is the thirty (30) Business Days before the Commitment Termination Date or (y) such L/C Issuer shall have been notified by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders expressly to the effect that any condition specified in Section 3.2 is not satisfied at the time such Letter of Credit is to be extended, provided that, in the case of such notice from the Administrative Agent or Required Lenders, such L/C Issuer receives such notice prior to the date notice of non-renewal is required to be given by such L/C Issuer and such L/C Issuer has had a reasonable period of time to act on such notice.

(e) Notice of Issuances. Promptly upon issuing any Letter of Credit, the relevant L/C Issuer will notify the Administrative Agent of the date of such Letter of Credit, the amount thereof, the beneficiary or beneficiaries thereof and the expiration date. Upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender of the contents thereof and the amount of such Revolving Lender’s participation in the relevant Letter of Credit. Promptly upon issuing any Letter of Credit, the relevant L/C Issuer will send a copy of such Letter of Credit to the Administrative Agent.

(f) Drawings. Upon receiving a demand for payment under any Letter of Credit from the beneficiary thereof, the relevant L/C Issuer shall determine, in accordance with the terms of such Letter of Credit, whether such demand for payment should be honored. If such L/C Issuer determines that any such demand for payment should be honored, such L/C Issuer shall (i) promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent as to the amount to be paid by such L/C Issuer as a result of such demand and the date on which such amount is to be paid (an “L/C Payment Date”) and (ii) on such L/C Payment Date make available to such beneficiary in accordance with the terms of such Letter of Credit the amount of the drawing under such Letter of Credit.

(g) Reimbursement and Other Payments by the Borrower. If any amount is drawn under any Letter of Credit:

(i) the Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to reimburse the relevant L/C Issuer for all amounts paid by such L/C Issuer immediately upon such drawing, together with interest on the amount drawn at the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans for each day from and including the date such amount is drawn to but excluding the date such reimbursement

payment is due and payable. Such reimbursement payment shall be due and payable on the relevant L/C Payment Date and Borrower hereby authorizes and directs Administrative Agent, at Administrative Agent’s option, to debit Borrower’s account (by increasing the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loan) in the amount of any payment made by an L/C Issuer with respect to any Letter of Credit; and

(ii) in addition, the Borrower agrees to pay to the relevant L/C Issuer interest on any and all amounts not paid by the Borrower when due hereunder with respect to a Letter of Credit, for each day from and including the date when such amount becomes due to but excluding the date such amount is paid in full, payable on demand, at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate.

Each payment to be made by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.5(g) shall be made to the relevant L/C Issuer in federal or other funds immediately available to it at its address specified in or pursuant to Section 11.3.

(h) Payments by Revolving Lenders with Respect to Letters of Credit. In the event Administrative Agent elects not to debit Borrower’s account for any Reimbursement Obligations and the Borrower fails to reimburse the relevant L/C Issuer as and when required by Section 2.5(g) above for all or any portion of any amount drawn under a Letter of Credit issued by it:

(i) such L/C Issuer may notify the Administrative Agent of such unpaid Reimbursement Obligation and request that the Revolving Lenders reimburse such L/C Issuer for their respective Percentages thereof. Upon receiving any such notice from an L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender of such unpaid Reimbursement Obligation and such Revolving Lender’s Percentage thereof. Upon receiving such notice from the Administrative Agent, each Revolving Lender shall make available to such L/C Issuer, at its address specified in or pursuant to Section 11.3, an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Percentage of such unpaid Reimbursement Obligation as set forth in such notice, in federal or other funds immediately available to such L/C Issuer, by 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) (A) on the day such Revolving Lender receives such notice if it is received at or before 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on such day or (B) on the first Business Day following such Revolving Lender’s receipt of such notice if it is received after 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the date of receipt, in each case together with interest on such amount for each day from and including the relevant L/C Payment Date to but excluding the day such payment is due from such Revolving Lender at the Federal Funds Rate for such day. Upon payment in full thereof, such Revolving Lender shall be subrogated to the rights of such L/C Issuer against the Borrower to the extent of such Revolving Lender’s Percentage of such unpaid Reimbursement Obligation (including interest

accrued thereon). Nothing in this Section 2.5(h) shall affect any rights any Revolving Lender may have against any L/C Issuer for any action or omission for which such L/C Issuer is not indemnified under Section 2.5(j); and

(ii) if any Revolving Lender fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it pursuant to this Section 2.5(h) on the date on which such payment is due, interest shall accrue on such Revolving Lender’s obligation to make such payment, for each day from and including the date such payment became due to but excluding the date such Revolving Lender makes such payment, at a rate per annum equal to (x) for each day from the day such payment is due through the third succeeding Business Day, inclusive, the Federal Funds Rate for such day as determined by the relevant L/C Issuer and (y) for each day thereafter, the Base Rate for such day. Any payment made by any Revolving Lender after 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on any Business Day shall be deemed for purposes of the preceding sentence to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day.

If the Borrower shall reimburse any L/C Issuer for any drawing with respect to which any Revolving Lender shall have made funds available to such L/C Issuer in accordance with this Section 2.5(h), such L/C Issuer shall promptly upon receipt of such reimbursement distribute to such Revolving Lender its Percentage thereof, including interest, to the extent received by such L/C Issuer.

(i) Obligation Absolute. The obligation of the Borrower to reimburse Administrative Agent and any applicable Revolving Lenders for payments made with respect to any L/C Obligation shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, without necessity of presentment, demand, protest or other formalities, and the obligation of each applicable Revolving Lender to make payments to Administrative Agent with respect to Letters of Credit shall be unconditional and irrevocable. Such obligations of the Borrower and Revolving Lenders shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms hereof under all circumstances including the following:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any other agreement relating to the Letter of Credit;

(ii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that any Credit Party or any of their respective Affiliates or any Lender may at any time have against a beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Persons or entities for whom any such transferee may be acting), Administrative Agent, any Lender, or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or therein or any unrelated transaction (including any underlying transaction between the Credit Party or any of their respective Affiliates and the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit);

(iii) any draft, demand, certificate or any other document presented under any 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;

(iv) payment by Administrative Agent (except as otherwise expressly provided in paragraph (k)(ii)(C) below) or any L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit or L/C Obligation against presentation of a demand, draft or certificate or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or L/C Obligation;

(v) any other circumstance or event whatsoever that is similar to any of the foregoing;

(vi) the fact that a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(vii) any amendment or waiver of or any consent or departure from all or any of the provisions of any Letter of Credit or any Loan Document; or

(viii) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind of any L/C Issuer, Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person or any other event or circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this subsection, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of Borrower’s obligations hereunder.

(j) Indemnification; Nature of Revolving Lenders’ Duties.

(i) In addition to amounts payable as elsewhere provided in this Agreement, the Borrower hereby agrees to pay and to protect, indemnify and save harmless Administrative Agent and each Revolving Lender from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and allocated costs of internal counsel) that Administrative Agent or any Revolving Lender may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (A) the issuance of any Letter of Credit or the incurrence of any L/C Obligation in respect thereof, or (B) the failure of Administrative Agent or any Revolving Lender seeking indemnification or of any L/C Issuer to honor a demand for payment under any Letter of Credit or of the Administrative Agent to make any payment under any L/C Obligation as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or Governmental Authority, in each case other than to the extent solely as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Administrative Agent or such Revolving Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction).

(ii) As between Administrative Agent and any Lender, on the one hand, and the Borrower, on the other hand, the Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of any Letter of Credit by, beneficiaries of any Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by law, neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be responsible for (A) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document issued by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of any Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged, (B) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, that may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason, (C) the failure of the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit to comply fully with conditions required to demand payment under such Letter of Credit; provided that in the case of any payment by L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit or L/C Obligation, L/C Issuer shall be liable only to the extent such payment was made solely as a result of its gross negligence or willful misconduct (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction) in determining that the demand for payment under such Letter of Credit or L/C Obligation complies on its face with any applicable requirements for a demand for payment under such Letter of Credit or any guaranty thereof, (D) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they may be in cipher, (E) errors in interpretation of technical terms, (F) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required to make a payment under any Letter of Credit or L/C Obligation, (G) the credit of the proceeds of any drawing under any Letter of Credit or L/C Obligation and (H) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of Administrative Agent or any Lender. None of the above shall affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s rights or powers hereunder or under this Agreement.

(iii) Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit or expand any waivers, covenants or indemnities made by the Borrower in favor of any L/C Issuer in any letter of credit application, reimbursement agreement or similar document, instrument or agreement between the Borrower and such L/C Issuer, including the Application for Standby Letter of Credit, Master Standby Agreement, Application for Documentary Letter of Credit or Master Agreement for Documentary Letter of Credit.

(k) Cash Collateral.

(i) If the Borrower is required to provide cash collateral for any L/C Obligations pursuant to this Agreement prior to the Commitment

Termination Date, the Borrower will pay to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of itself and the Revolving Lenders cash in an amount equal to one hundred ten percent (110%) of the maximum amount then available to be drawn under each applicable Letter of Credit. Such cash shall be held by Administrative Agent in a cash collateral account (the “Cash Collateral Account”) maintained at a bank or financial institution acceptable to Administrative Agent in its sole discretion. The Cash Collateral Account shall be in the name of the Borrower and shall be pledged to, and subject to the control of, Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders, in a manner satisfactory to Administrative Agent. The Borrower hereby pledges and grants to Administrative Agent, on behalf of itself and the Revolving Lenders, a security interest in all such funds and Cash Equivalents held in the Cash Collateral Account from time to time and all proceeds thereof, as security for the payment of all amounts due in respect of the L/C Obligations and other Obligations, whether or not then due. This Agreement, including the provisions of this Section 2.5(k), Obligations shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law.

(ii) If any L/C Obligations, whether or not then due and payable, shall for any reason be outstanding on the Commitment Termination Date, the Borrower shall either (A) provide cash collateral therefor in the manner described above, (B) cause all such Letters of Credit and L/C Obligations, if any, to be canceled and returned, or (C) deliver a stand-by letter (or letters) of credit in guaranty of such L/C Obligations, which stand-by letter (or letters) of credit shall be of like tenor and duration (plus thirty (30) additional days) as, and in an amount equal to one hundred ten percent (110%) of the aggregate maximum amount then available to be drawn under, the Letters of Credit to which such outstanding L/C Obligations relate and shall be issued by a Person, and shall be subject to such terms and conditions, as are satisfactory to Administrative Agent in its sole discretion.

(iii) From time to time after funds are deposited in the Cash Collateral Account by the Borrower, whether before or after the Commitment Termination Date, Administrative Agent may apply such funds or Cash Equivalents then held in the Cash Collateral Account to the payment of any amounts, and in such order as Administrative Agent may elect, as shall be or shall become due and payable by the Borrower to Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders with respect to such L/C Obligations and, upon the satisfaction in full of all L/C Obligations, to any other Obligations of the Borrower then due and payable.

(iv) Neither the Borrower nor any Person claiming on behalf of or through the Borrower shall have any right to withdraw any of the funds or Cash Equivalents held in the Cash Collateral Account, except that upon the termination of all L/C Obligations and the payment of all amounts payable by

the Borrower to Administrative Agent and Revolving Lenders in respect thereof, any funds remaining in the Cash Collateral Account shall be applied to other Obligations then due and owing and upon payment in full of such Obligations, any remaining amount shall be paid to the Borrower or as otherwise required by law. Interest earned on deposits in the Cash Collateral Account shall be for the account of Administrative Agent.

(v) Borrower agrees to execute such Control Letters and such other documents and instruments as the Administrative Agent shall require with respect to the security interests created under this Section.

Section 2.6. Swingline Loans.

(a) Swingline Commitment. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, from time to time during the Swingline Availability Period, the Swingline Lender agrees to advance funds to the Borrower pursuant to this Section; provided that, immediately after each such Advance is made (and after giving effect to any substantially concurrent application of the proceeds thereof to repay outstanding Advances or Reimbursement Obligations and to any Lender interest therein):

(i) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Swingline Loans shall not exceed the Swingline Commitment;

(ii) in the case of each Revolving Lender, its Outstanding Revolving Amount shall not exceed its Revolving Credit Commitment; and

(iii) the aggregate Outstanding Revolving Amount of all the Lenders shall not exceed the Revolving Credit Limit then in effect.

Each Swingline Advance shall be in a minimum amount of $500,000 or integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof. Subject to the foregoing limits, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Swingline Advances at any time during the Swingline Availability Period.

(b) Notice of Swingline Borrowing. The Borrower shall give the Swingline Lender notice (a “Notice of Swingline Borrowing”), substantially in the form of Exhibit C-2 hereto, not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date of each requested Swingline Advance, specifying:

(i) the date of such Advance, which shall be a Business Day; and

(ii) the amount of such Advance.

(c) Funding of Swingline Loans. As promptly as practicable following receipt of a Notice of Swingline Borrowing, the Swingline Lender shall, unless the Swingline Lender determines that any applicable condition specified in Article III has not

been satisfied, make available the amount of such Swingline Advance in federal or other funds immediately available as provided in Section 2.3(b).

(d) Interest. The Swingline Loans shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from and including the day such Swingline Advance is made to but excluding the date repaid, at a rate per annum equal to the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans for such day. Such interest shall be payable on the Interest Payment Date.

(e) Optional Prepayment of Swingline Loans. The Borrower may prepay the Swingline Loans in whole at any time, or from time to time in part, by giving notice of such prepayment to the Swingline Lender not later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the date of prepayment and paying the principal amount to be prepaid, together with interest accrued thereon to the date of prepayment, to the Swingline Lender in the manner provided in Section 2.14 not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date of prepayment.

(f) Mandatory Prepayment of Swingline Loan. The Borrower shall prepay the Swingline Loans, together with interest accrued thereon to the date of prepayment, upon the acceleration of the Obligations pursuant to Article VIII. On the date of each Revolving Credit Advance, the Administrative Agent shall apply the proceeds thereof to prepay all Swingline Loans then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon to the date of prepayment.

(g) Maturity of Swingline Loan. The Swingline Loans outstanding on the Swingline Maturity Date shall be due and payable on such date, together with interest accrued thereon to such date.

(h) Refunding Unpaid Swingline Loans. The Swingline Lender, at any time and from time to time in its sole and absolute discretion, but not less frequently than weekly, and immediately if (x) the Swingline Loans are not paid in full on the Swingline Maturity Date or (y) the Swingline Loans become immediately due and payable pursuant to Article VIII, shall on behalf of Borrower (and Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swingline Lender to so act on its behalf) by notice to the Revolving Lenders (including the Swingline Lender, in its capacity as a Lender), require each Revolving Lender to pay to the Swingline Lender an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Percentage of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Swingline Loans then outstanding. Such notice shall specify the date on which such payments are to be made, which shall be the first Business Day after such notice is given. Not later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the date so specified, each Revolving Lender shall pay the amount so notified to it to the Swingline Lender at its address specified in or pursuant to Section 11.3, in federal or other funds immediately available in New York, New York. The amount so paid by each Revolving Lender shall constitute a Base Rate Advance to the Borrower and each Revolving Lender hereby irrevocably agrees (absent gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Swingline Lender as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction) to the making of such Base Rate Advance notwithstanding (i) the amount of such Advance may not comply with the

minimum amount for borrowings of Revolving Loans otherwise required hereunder, (ii) whether any conditions specified in Section 3.2 are then satisfied, (iii) whether a Default or an Event of Default then exists, (iv) the failure of any such request or deemed request for Revolving Loans to be made by the time otherwise required in Section 2.1, (v) the date of such mandatory Advance or (vi) any reduction in the Revolving Credit Commitments or termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments immediately prior to such mandatory Advance contemporaneously therewith; provided that, if the Revolving Lenders are prevented from making such Base Rate Revolving Credit Advances to the Borrower by the provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, the amount so paid by each Revolving Lender shall constitute a purchase by it of a participation in the unpaid principal amount of the Swingline Loan and interest accruing thereon after the date of such payment; provided that (x) all interest payable on the Swingline Loans shall be for the account of the Swingline Lender until the date as of which the respective participation is purchased and (y) at the time any purchase of participations pursuant to this sentence is actually made, the purchasing Lender shall be required to pay to the Swingline Lender, to the extent not paid to the Swingline Lender by the Borrower in accordance with the terms of subsection (d) hereof, interest on the principal amount of participation purchased for each day from and including the day upon which such borrowing would otherwise have occurred to, but excluding, the date of payment for such participation. Each Lender’s obligation to make such payment or to purchase such participation under this subsection shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (1) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender or any other Person may have against the Swingline Lender or the Borrower, (2) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or the termination of the Commitments, (3) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower or any other Person, (4) any breach of this Agreement by any party hereto or (5) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

(i) Termination of Swingline Commitment. The Borrower may, upon at least three (3) Business Days’ notice to the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent, terminate the Swingline Commitment at any time, if no Swingline Loans are outstanding at such time. Unless previously terminated, the Swingline Commitment shall terminate at the close of business on the Swingline Maturity Date.

Section 2.7. Certain Fees.

(a) Administrative Agent Fees. The Borrower shall pay to GE Capital, individually, the Fees as and when required pursuant to the GE Capital Fee Letter at the times specified for payment therein.

(b) Unused Line Fee. As additional compensation for the Revolving Lenders, the Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of such Revolving Lenders, in arrears, on the first Business Day of each month prior to the Commitment Termination Date and on the Commitment Termination Date, a fee (the “Unused Line Fee”) for the Borrower’s non-use of available funds in an amount equal to (i)

the Applicable Margin (calculated on the basis of a 360 day year for the number of actual days elapsed) multiplied by (ii) the difference between (x) the Maximum Commitment Amount (as it may be reduced from time to time) minus (y) the average for the period of the daily closing balances of the aggregate Revolving Loans and the Swingline Loans outstanding during the period for which such Fee is due.

(d) Letter of Credit Fee. (i) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of Revolving Lenders, with respect to the L/C Obligations incurred hereunder, (A) for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer, all costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer on account of such L/C Obligations, (B) for the ratable benefit of the Revolving Lenders, for each day during any month in which any L/C Obligation shall remain outstanding, a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) in an amount equal to (x) the Applicable Margin (calculated on the basis of a 360 day year for actual days elapsed) multiplied by (y) the maximum amount available for drawing (whether or not such day is a Business Day and whether or not the conditions for drawing thereunder have been satisfied) under all Letters of Credit at the close of business on such day. The Letter of Credit Fee shall be paid to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Revolving Lenders quarterly in arrears, on the first Business Day of each Fiscal Quarter prior to the Commitment Termination Date and on the Commitment Termination Date. In addition, the Borrower shall pay to any L/C Issuer, on demand, such fees (including all per annum fees), charges and expenses of such L/C Issuer in respect of the issuance, negotiation, acceptance, amendment, transfer and payment of any Letter of Credit or otherwise payable pursuant to the application and related documentation under which any Letter of Credit is issued. During any period during which the Default Rate shall have been imposed pursuant Section 2.4(c), or, in the absence of such imposition, during any period during which the Required Lenders could have imposed the Default Rate pursuant to such Section and instead elect to impose the provisions of this paragraph, the Letter of Credit Fee otherwise in effect pursuant to the preceding paragraph shall be increased by two percent (2%) per annum.

Section 2.8. Mandatory Repayments and Prepayments.

(a) Prepayment of Excess Outstanding Revolving Amount; Maturity of Obligations. (i) If at any time the aggregate Outstanding Revolving Amount of all Lenders exceeds the Revolving Credit Limit then in effect, the Borrower shall immediately prepay Loans and Swingline Loans (or if no such Loans and Swingline Loans are outstanding, deposit cash in a collateral account in accordance with Section 2.5(k)) in an aggregate principal amount sufficient to eliminate such excess; provided that if any such excess results from the establishment or modification of a Reserve or an adjustment to the Borrowing Base or Collection Values pursuant to Section 2.1(d), such prepayments will be due within 30 days after such establishment, modification or adjustment; provided further that, during such 30 day period, Borrower shall be able to request Revolving Credit Advances in an amount

not to exceed the amount of any such Reserve or the amount attributable to any such Borrowing Base or Collection Value adjustment, as applicable.

(b) Asset Dispositions. Immediately upon any Credit Party’s receipt of Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Disposition (other than any Asset Dispositions permitted by Section 7.5 or any sale of Stock of any Subsidiary of any Credit Party), the Borrower shall prepay an aggregate principal amount of Loans (and to the extent that any Net Cash Proceeds in excess of the outstanding principal amount of Loans, cash collateralize L/C Obligations in accordance with Section 2.5(k)) equal to (i) one hundred percent (100%) of all such Net Cash Proceeds. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to Net Cash Proceeds resulting from the sale of fixed assets, if Borrower delivers to the Administrative Agent a certificate, signed by Borrower’s chief financial officer, that it intends to reinvest all or any portion of such Net Cash Proceeds in productive replacement assets of a kind then used or usable in the business of a Credit Party within 180 days of receipt thereof, the Borrower may reinvest such Net Cash Proceeds in the manner set forth in such certificate; provided that (i) the aggregate amount of such Net Cash Proceeds shall not exceed $1,000,000 during the term of the Credit Agreement, and (ii) any amounts not so used within the period set forth in such certificate shall, on the first Business Day immediately following such period, be applied as provided in the last sentence of this subsection. Any prepayment under this Section 2.8(b) shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.10(d).

(c) Stock Issuances. Subject to the following sentence, if any Credit Party issues Stock, immediately upon receipt of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof (other than (i) proceeds from the issuance of Stock to members of the management of the Borrower pursuant to employee option or stock plans, (ii) proceeds of the issuance of Stock to any Credit Party and (iii) issuance of common Stock of Parent pursuant to a follow-on public offering on terms and conditions reasonably satisfactory to the Required Lenders), the Borrower shall prepay an aggregate principal amount of Loans (and to the extent of any Net Cash Proceeds in excess of the outstanding principal amount of Loans, cash collateralize L/C Obligations in accordance with Section 2.5(k)) in an amount equal to one-hundred percent (100%) of such Net Cash Proceeds; provided that any such Net Cash Proceeds received from the sale of common stock of Holdings in a follow-on public offering which are not applied within 135 days from receipt thereof must be used to prepay the Loans as set forth in this Section 2.8(c). Prior to any prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.8(c), Borrower must demonstrate to the reasonable satisfaction of the Administrative Agent that immediately before and after giving effect to such prepayment, no Default has occurred and is continuing and the Pro Forma Excess Availability is not less than $5,000,000. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the failure of the Borrower to make the payments set forth in this Section 2.8(c) shall be an Event of Default as set forth in Section 8.1(a)(i). Any prepayment under this Section 2.8(c) shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.10(d).

(d) Issuance of Indebtedness. Subject to the following sentence, if any Credit Party incurs any Indebtedness, immediately upon the receipt of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof, the Borrower shall prepay an aggregate principal amount of Loans (and to

the extent of any Net Cash Proceeds in excess of the outstanding principal amount of Loans, cash collateralize L/C Obligations in accordance with Section 2.5(k)) in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of all such Net Cash Proceeds. Prior to any prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.8(d), Borrower must demonstrate to the reasonable satisfaction of the Administrative Agent that immediately before and after giving effect to such prepayment, no Default has occurred and is continuing and the Pro Forma Excess Availability is not less than $5,000,000. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the failure of the Borrower to make the payments set forth in this Section 2.8(d) shall be an Event of Default as set forth in Section 8.1(a)(i). Any prepayment under this Section 2.8(d) shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.10(d).

Section 2.9. Optional Prepayments. Subject to the following sentence, the Borrower may prepay the Loans in whole or in part upon at least three (3) Business Days’ (or, in the case of Base Rate Revolving Loans, one (1) Business Day’s) prior irrevocable written notice to the Lenders, subject to the payment of any prepayment charges incurred pursuant to Section 9.4(d), provided that in the case of repayments of Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans pursuant to the cash sweep mechanism specified in Section 6.20, such notice shall be waived. The aggregate principal amount of Loans designated for prepayment in any notice of optional prepayment given pursuant to this section shall become due and payable on the date fixed for prepayment as specified in such notice.

Section 2.10. Application of Payments. (a) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (i) payments consisting of proceeds of Accounts received in the ordinary course of business shall be applied, first, to the Swingline Loan and, second, to the Revolving Loan; (ii) payments matching specific scheduled payments then due shall be applied to those scheduled payments; (iii) voluntary prepayments shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.10(c); and (iv) mandatory prepayments shall be applied as set forth in Section 2.10(d). All payments and prepayments applied to a particular loan shall be applied ratably to the portion thereof held by each Lender as determined by its Pro Rata Share. As to any other payment, and as to all payments made following the Commitment Termination Date, Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any and all payments received from or on behalf of Borrower, and Borrower hereby irrevocably agrees that Administrative Agent shall have the continuing exclusive right to apply any and all such payments against the Obligations as Administrative Agent may deem advisable notwithstanding any previous entry by Administrative Agent in the Loan Account or any other books and records. In the absence of a specific determination by Administrative Agent with respect thereto, payments shall be applied to amounts then due and payable in the following order: (1) to Fees and Administrative Agent’s expenses reimbursable hereunder; (2) to interest on the Swingline Loan; (3) to principal payments on the Swingline Loan; (4) to interest on the other Loans and unpaid Swap Related Reimbursement Obligations, ratably in proportion to the interest accrued as to each Loan and unpaid Swap Related Reimbursement Obligation, as applicable; (5) to principal payments on the other Loans and unpaid Swap Related Reimbursement Obligations and to provide cash collateral for L/C Obligations in the manner described in Section 2.5(k), ratably to the aggregate, combined principal balance of the other Loans, unpaid Swap Related

Reimbursement Obligations and outstanding L/C Obligations; and (6) to all other Obligations.

(b) Administrative Agent is authorized to, and at its sole election may, charge to the Revolving Loan balance on behalf of Borrower and cause to be paid all Fees, expenses, Charges, costs (including insurance premiums in accordance with Section 6.3(a)) and interest and principal, other than principal of the Revolving Loan, owing by Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents if and to the extent Borrower fails to pay promptly any such amounts as and when due, even if the amount of such charges would exceed the Revolving Credit Limit at such time. At Administrative Agent’s option and to the extent permitted by law, any charges so made shall constitute part of the Revolving Loan hereunder.

(d) Prepayments described in Section 2.8(b) shall be applied first to repay Revolving Loans to the extent of the value (if any) of any Account Receivable related assets included in such sale (either directly or as an asset of a subsidiary whose Stock was the subject of such sale), and second, any amounts remaining shall be applied to repay Revolving Loans. Prepayments described in Sections 2.8(c) and 2.8(d) shall be applied to prepay Revolving Loans. When amounts are required to be applied against Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.8, such amounts shall be applied first to outstanding Revolving Credit Advances until paid in full, second to cash collateralize all outstanding L/C Obligations until paid in full and third to repay any outstanding Swingline Loan. Subject to Section 2.10(e), considering each Loan being prepaid separately, any such prepayment shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans of the Class required to be prepaid before application to LIBOR Loans of the Class required to be prepaid, in each case in a manner which minimizes any resulting LIBOR breakage fee.

(e) Each payment or prepayment of less than all the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Loans of any Class shall be applied pro rata to the Loans of that Class of all Lenders according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of Loans of that Class held by each such Lender.

Section 2.11. Reduction of Commitments. (a) The Revolving Credit Commitment shall permanently reduce (i) to the extent directed by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.11(b), and (ii) to Zero Dollars ($0) on the Commitment Termination Date.

(b) The Borrower shall have the right at any time to terminate in whole the Revolving Credit Commitments and this Agreement, or from time to time, irrevocably to reduce in part the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments upon at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent; provided that Borrower must demonstrate to the reasonable satisfaction of the Administrative Agent that immediately before and after giving effect to a reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments under this Section 2.11(b), no Default has occurred and is continuing and the Pro Forma Excess

Availability is not less than $5,000,000. Such notice shall be irrevocable on the part of the Borrower and shall specify the effective date of such reduction or termination, whether a termination or reduction is being made, and, in the case of any reduction, the amount thereof shall be in an amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Upon any such reduction, the Borrower shall simultaneously prepay any outstanding Revolving Loans (without premium except for the payment of any charges incurred pursuant to Section 9.4(d)) to the extent necessary so that the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans does not exceed the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment after giving effect to any partial reduction thereof. The aforesaid prior notice requirement shall not apply to the Administrative Agent’s exercise of remedies under Section 8.2. The amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment may not be reinstated if it is reduced or if this Agreement is terminated by the Borrower.

(c) In the event the Borrower exercises its rights under Section 2.11(b) to reduce the Revolving Credit Commitment, the Borrower agrees that any such prepayment or reduction shall be accompanied by (i) in the case of a prepayment in full and termination of this Agreement, the payment by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Lenders of all accrued and unpaid interest and all fees and other remaining Obligations hereunder, and (ii) the payment of any prepayment charges incurred pursuant to Section 9.4(d).

Section 2.12. Loan Account and Accounting. The Administrative Agent shall maintain a loan account (the “Loan Account”) on its books to record all Loans, all payments made by the Borrower, and all other debits and credits as provided in this Agreement with respect to the Loans or any other Obligations. All entries in the Loan Account shall be made in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s customary accounting practices as in effect from time to time. The balance in the Loan Account, as recorded on the Administrative Agent’s most recent printout or other written statement, shall, absent clear and convincing evidence to the contrary, be presumptive evidence of the amounts due and owing to each Lender and the Administrative Agent by the Borrower; provided that any failure to so record or any error in so recording shall not limit or otherwise affect the Borrower’s duty to pay the Obligations. The Administrative Agent shall render to the Borrower a monthly accounting of transactions with respect to the Loans setting forth the balance of the Loan Account. Unless the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent in writing of any objection to any such accounting (specifically describing the basis for such objection), within thirty (30) days after the date thereof, each and every such accounting shall (absent clear and convincing error) be deemed final, binding and conclusive upon the Credit Parties in all respects as to all matters reflected therein. Only those items expressly objected to in such notice shall be deemed to be disputed by the Borrower.

Section 2.13. Computation of Interest and Fees. Unused Line Fees pursuant to Section 2.7(b), Letter of Credit Fees pursuant to Section 2.7(d) and all interest hereunder and under the Notes shall be calculated for any period on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed during such period, including the first day but excluding the last day of such period.

Section 2.14. General Provisions Regarding Payments. All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Credit Parties under any Loan Document, including payments of principal of and interest on the Notes, fees, expenses and indemnities, shall be made without set-off or counterclaim and in immediately available funds to each Lender’s Payment Account before 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date when due. If any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon, shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. For purposes of computing interest and Fees and determining Borrowing Availability as of any date, all payments shall be deemed received on the same Business Day on which immediately available funds therefor are received in the Collection Account prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York City time). Payments received after 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on any Business Day or on a day that is not a Business Day shall be deemed to have been received on the following Business Day.

Section 2.15. Maximum Interest. (a) In no event shall the interest charged with respect to the Loans, the Notes or any other Obligations of any Credit Party under the Loan Documents exceed the maximum amount permitted under the laws of the jurisdiction whose law is specified as the governing law of this document pursuant to Section 11.10 or of any other applicable jurisdiction. For the purposes of making any such determination hereunder, the Loans hereunder shall be deemed a single loan in the amount of the Commitments.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or elsewhere, if at any time the rate of interest payable for the account of any Lender hereunder or any other Loan Document (the “Stated Rate”) would exceed the highest rate of interest permitted under any applicable law to be charged by such Lender (the “Maximum Lawful Rate”), then for so long as the Maximum Lawful Rate would be so exceeded, the rate of interest payable for the account of such Lender shall be equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate; provided that if at any time thereafter the Stated Rate is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, the Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by law, continue to pay interest for the account of such Lender at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received by such Lender is equal to the total interest which such Lender would have received had the Stated Rate been (but for the operation of this provision) the interest rate payable. Thereafter, the interest rate payable for the account of such Lender shall be the Stated Rate unless and until the Stated Rate again would exceed the Maximum Lawful Rate, in which event this provision shall again apply.

(c) In no event shall the total interest received by any Lender exceed the amount which such Lender could lawfully have received had the interest been calculated for the full term hereof at the Maximum Lawful Rate with respect to such Lender.

(d) In computing interest payable with reference to the Maximum Lawful Rate applicable to any Lender, such interest shall be calculated at a daily rate equal to the

Maximum Lawful Rate divided by the number of days in the year in which such calculation is made.

(e) If any Lender has received interest hereunder in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate with respect to such Lender, such excess amount shall be applied to the reduction of the outstanding principal balance of its Loans or to other amounts (other than interest) payable hereunder, and if no such principal or other amounts are then outstanding, such excess or part thereof remaining shall be paid to the Borrower.

Section 2.16. Swap Related Reimbursement Obligations.

(a) Borrower agrees to reimburse GE Capital in immediately available funds in the amount of any payment made by GE Capital under a Swap Related L/C (such reimbursement obligation, whether contingent upon payment by GE Capital under the Swap Related L/C or otherwise, being herein called a “Swap Related Reimbursement Obligation”). No Swap Related Reimbursement Obligation for any Swap Related L/C may exceed the amount of the payment obligations owed by Borrower under the interest rate protection or hedging agreement or transaction supported by the Swap Related L/C.

(b) A Swap Related Reimbursement Obligation shall be due and payable by Borrower within one (1) Business Day after the date on which the related payment is made by GE Capital under the Swap Related L/C.

(c) Any Swap Related Reimbursement Obligation shall, during the period in which it is unpaid, bear interest at the rate per annum equal to the LIBOR Rate plus one percent (1%), as if the unpaid amount of the Swap Related Reimbursement Obligation were a LIBOR Loan, and not at any otherwise applicable Default Rate. Such interest shall be payable upon demand. The following additional provisions apply to the calculation and charging of interest on Swap Related Reimbursement Obligations by reference to the LIBOR Rate:

(i) The LIBOR Rate shall be determined for each successive one-month LIBOR Period during which the Swap Related Reimbursement Obligation is unpaid, notwithstanding the occurrence of any Event of Default and even if the LIBOR Period were to extend beyond the Commitment Termination Date.

(ii) If a Swap Related Reimbursement Obligation is paid during a monthly period for which the LIBOR Rate is determined, interest shall be pro-rated and charged for the portion of the monthly period during which the Swap Related Reimbursement Obligation was unpaid. Section 9.4(d) shall not apply to any payment of a Swap Related Reimbursement Obligation during the monthly period.

(iii) Notwithstanding the last paragraph of the definition of “LIBOR Rate”, if the LIBOR Rate is no longer available from Telerate News

Service, the LIBOR Rate with respect to Swap Related Reimbursement Obligations shall be determined by GE Capital from such financial reporting service or other information available to GE Capital as in GE Capital’s reasonable discretion indicates GE Capital’s cost of funds.

(d) Except as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.16 and in Article IX, Borrower shall not be obligated to pay to GE Capital or any of its Affiliates any Letter of Credit Fee, or any other fees, charges or expenses, in respect of a Swap Related L/C or arranging for any interest rate protection or hedging agreement or transaction supported by the Swap Related L/C. GE Capital and its Affiliates shall look to the beneficiary of a Swap Related L/C for payment of any such letter of credit fees or other fees, charges or expenses and such beneficiary may factor such fees, charges, or expenses into the pricing of any interest rate protection or hedging arrangement or transaction supported by the Swap Related L/C.

(e) If any Swap Related L/C is revocable prior to its scheduled expiry date, GE Capital agrees not to revoke the Swap Related L/C unless the Commitment Termination Date or an Event of Default has occurred.

(f) GE Capital or any of its Affiliates shall be permitted to (i) provide confidential or other information furnished to it by any of the Credit Parties (including, without limitation, copies of any documents and information in or referred to in the Closing Checklist, financial statements and Compliance Certificates) to a beneficiary or potential beneficiary of a Swap Related L/C and (ii) receive confidential or other information from the beneficiary or potential beneficiary relating to any agreement or transaction supported or to be supported by the Swap Related L/C. However, no confidential information shall be provided to any Person under this paragraph unless the Person has agreed to comply with the covenant substantially as contained in Section 11.14 of this Agreement.

Any information other than financial information presented in such statements is true, correct and complete in all material respects. Except as disclosed or reflected in such financial statements or in Disclosure Schedule 4.5(a), no Credit Party has any liabilities, contingent or otherwise, nor any unrealized or anticipated losses, that, singly or in the aggregate, have had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) The Pro Forma delivered on the date hereof and attached hereto as Disclosure Schedule 4.5(b) was prepared by the Borrower giving pro forma effect to the Related Transactions, was based on the unaudited consolidated and consolidating balance

If (x) a fact or circumstance disclosed in the financial statements referred to in Section 4.5 or a Disclosure Statement, or if an investigation, action, suit or proceeding disclosed in Disclosure Schedule 4.7, that, at the time of such disclosure did not appear reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, should in the future have, or appear reasonably likely to have, a Material Adverse Effect, or (y) a development or change shall occur with respect to any fact or circumstance disclosed in any financial statement, Disclosure Schedule or previously described investigation, action, suit or proceeding that should in the future have or appear reasonably likely to have a Materially Adverse Effect, then in each case ((x) and (y)) such Materially Adverse Effect shall be a change or event subject to Section 4.6 notwithstanding such prior disclosure.

Section 4.7. Litigation. Except as disclosed on Disclosure Schedule 4.7, there is no action, suit, investigation or proceeding (collectively, “Litigation”) pending or, to the knowledge of any Credit Party, threatened against or affecting any Credit Party or its property before any court or arbitrator or any Governmental Authority which, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Parts 160 & 162 (the “Transactions Rule”) and/or the HIPAA Security and Privacy Requirements codified at 45 C.F.R. Parts 160 & 164 (the “Privacy and Security Rules”), and/or (iii) a Credit Party sponsors any “group health plans” as defined in 45 C.F.R. § 160.103, each such Credit Party has: (x) completed, or will complete on or before any applicable compliance date, thorough and detailed surveys, audits, inventories, reviews, analyses and/or assessments, including risk assessments, (collectively “Assessments”) of all areas of its business and operations subject to HIPAA and/or that could be adversely affected by the failure of such Credit Party to be HIPAA Compliant (as defined below) to the extent these Assessments are appropriate or required for such Credit Party to be HIPAA Compliant; (y) developed, or will develop on or before any applicable compliance date, a detailed plan and time line for becoming HIPAA Compliant (a “HIPAA Compliance Plan”); and (z) implemented, or will implement on or before any applicable compliance date, those provisions of its HIPAA Compliance Plan necessary to ensure that such Credit Party is HIPAA Compliant.

As such, each Credit Party represents and warrants that it has the legal right, power and authority to execute the Business Associate Agreement on behalf of the Affiliated Entity, in accordance with the Privacy and Security Rules, and that the provisions of the Business Associate Agreement shall be binding upon each Credit Party and all of such Credit Party’s affiliates that are participating in the Affiliated Entity, in accordance with the Privacy and Security Rules, as if each and every such affiliate were a party to such Business Associate Agreement directly.

Section 4.22. Third Party Reimbursement. If any Credit Party is or has been audited by Medicare, Medicaid, TRICARE, CHAMPVA or similar governmental payors, none of such audits provides for adjustments in reimbursable costs or asserts claims for reimbursement or repayment by such Credit Party of costs and/or payments theretofore

made by such governmental payor that, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected to have or result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 4.23. Tax Shelter Representation. The Borrower does not intend to treat the Loans, the Letters of Credit and/or related transactions as being a “reportable transaction” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4). In the event the Borrower determines to take any action inconsistent with such intention, it will promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof. If the Borrower so notifies the Administrative Agent, the Borrower acknowledges that one or more of the Lenders may treat its Loans and/or its interest in Swingline Loans and/or Letters of Credit as part of a transaction that is subject to Treasury Regulation Section 301.6112-1, and such Lender or Lenders, as applicable, will maintain the lists and other records required by such Treasury Regulation.

ARTICLE VI.

AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS

So long as any Lending Party has any Commitment hereunder or any Extension of Credit or other Obligation remains outstanding, Borrower shall, and shall cause each Credit Party to, comply with each of the covenants in this Article VI:

Section 6.1. Payment of Obligations. Each Credit Party (a) shall pay and discharge, at or before maturity, all of its respective obligations and liabilities, including Charges, the non-payment or discharge of which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect except where the same is the subject of a Permitted Contest, (b) shall maintain, in accordance with GAAP, appropriate reserves for the accrual of any of the same and (c) shall not breach in any respect, or permit to exist any default under, the terms of any lease, commitment, contract, instrument or obligation to which it is a party, or by which its properties or assets are bound, the breach of or default under which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, subject to Permitted Contests.

Section 6.2. Preservation of Existence and Franchises. Each of the Credit Parties will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, do all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence, rights, franchises and authority except as permitted by Section 7.4 or except (with respect to rights, franchises and authority only) where the failure to do so would not have or be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 6.3. Insurance; Damage to or Destruction of Collateral. (a) The Credit Parties shall, at their sole cost and expense, (i) maintain the policies of insurance described on Disclosure Schedule 4.19 as in effect on the Closing Date or otherwise in form and amounts and with insurers reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent and (ii) deliver to Administrative Agent at the time financial statements and reports are required to be delivered by Section 5.1(c) hereof, an updated Disclosure Schedule 4.19, which shall be attached to this Agreement and made a part hereof in replacement of the previously delivered Disclosure Schedule 4.19 showing the form and amounts of such policies as of such delivery date and the changes from the previous such disclosure schedule. Such policies of insurance (or the loss payable and additional insured endorsements delivered to Administrative Agent) shall contain provisions pursuant to which the insurer agrees to provide thirty (30) days prior written notice to Administrative Agent in the event of any non-renewal, cancellation or amendment of any such insurance policy. If any Credit Party at any time or times hereafter shall fail to obtain or maintain any of the policies of insurance required above, or to pay all premiums relating thereto, Administrative Agent may at any time or times thereafter obtain and maintain such policies of insurance and pay such premiums and take any other action with respect thereto that Administrative Agent deems advisable; provided that Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to obtain insurance for any Credit Party or pay any premiums therefor, but to the extent it does obtain such insurance or pay such premiums, Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have waived any Default arising from any Credit Party’s failure to maintain such insurance or pay any

premiums therefor. All sums so disbursed by Administrative Agent hereunder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs and other charges related thereto, shall be payable on demand by the Borrower to Administrative Agent and shall constitute additional Obligations hereunder secured by the Collateral.

(b) Administrative Agent reserves the right at any time upon any change in any Credit Party’s risk profile (including any change in the product mix maintained by any Credit Party or any laws affecting the potential liability of such Credit Party) to require additional forms and limits of insurance to, in Administrative Agent’s reasonable opinion, adequately protect both Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s interests in all or any portion of the Collateral and to ensure that each Credit Party is protected by insurance in amounts and with coverage customary for its industry. If requested by Administrative Agent, each Credit Party shall deliver to Administrative Agent from time to time a report of a reputable insurance broker, satisfactory to Administrative Agent, with respect to its insurance policies.

(c) Each Credit Party shall deliver to Administrative Agent, in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent, endorsements to (i) all “All Risk” and business interruption insurance naming Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Agent and Lenders, as loss payee, and (ii) all general liability and other liability policies naming Administrative Agent, on behalf of itself and Lenders, as additional insured. Each Credit Party irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints Administrative Agent (and all officers, employees or agents designated by Administrative Agent), as such Credit Party’s true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact for the purpose of making, settling and adjusting claims under such “All Risk” policies of insurance, endorsing the name of such Credit Party on any check or other item of payment for the proceeds of such “All Risk” policies of insurance and for making all determinations and decisions with respect to such “All Risk” policies of insurance; provided that Administrative Agent shall have no duty to exercise any rights or powers granted to it pursuant to the foregoing power-of-attorney. After deducting from such proceeds the expenses, if any, incurred by Administrative Agent in the collection or handling thereof, Administrative Agent shall apply such proceeds in excess of $250,000 to the reduction of the Obligations in accordance with Section 2.8(b); provided however, that, absent a Default or Event of Default, the applicable Credit Party may use such proceeds in an amount not to exceed $1,000,000, to replace, repair, restore or rebuild the Collateral within 270 days of such casualty with materials and workmanship of substantially the same quality as existed before the loss, damage or destruction; provided that if such Credit Party shall not have completed or entered into binding agreements to complete such replacement, restoration, repair or rebuilding within 180 days of such casualty, Administrative Agent shall apply such insurance proceeds to the Obligations in accordance with Section 2.8(b). All insurance proceeds that are to be made available to any Credit Party to replace, repair, restore or rebuild the Collateral shall be applied by Administrative Agent to reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loan (which application shall not result in a permanent reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitment) and upon such application, Administrative Agent shall establish a Reserve against the Borrowing Base in an amount equal to the amount of such proceeds so applied. Thereafter, such funds shall be made available to that Credit Party to provide funds to replace, repair, restore or rebuild the

Collateral as follows: (x) the Borrower shall request a Revolving Credit Advance be made to such Credit Party in the amount requested to be released; (y) so long as the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 have been met, Revolving Lenders shall make such Revolving Credit Advance and (z) in the case of insurance proceeds applied against the Revolving Loan, the Reserve established with respect to such insurance proceeds shall be reduced by the amount of such Revolving Credit Advance. To the extent not used to replace, repair, restore or rebuild the Collateral, such insurance proceeds shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.8(b).

Section 6.4. Compliance with Law. Each of the Credit Parties will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, comply with all laws, rules, regulations and orders, and all applicable restrictions imposed by all Governmental Authorities, applicable to it and its property (including, without limitation, Environmental Laws) if noncompliance with any such law, rule, regulation, order or restriction would have or be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 6.5. Payment of Taxes and Other Indebtedness. Each of the Credit Parties will, and will cause its Subsidiaries to, pay, settle or discharge (a) all taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon it, or upon its income or profits, or upon any of its properties, before they shall become delinquent, (b) all lawful claims (including claims for labor, materials and supplies) which, if unpaid, might give rise to a Lien upon any of its properties, and (c) except as prohibited hereunder, all of its other Indebtedness as it shall become due; provided, however, that a Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries shall not be required to pay any such tax, assessment, charge, levy, claim or Indebtedness which is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and as to which adequate reserves therefor have been established in accordance with GAAP, unless the failure to make any such payment (i) could give rise to an immediate right to foreclose on a Lien securing such amounts or (ii) would have or be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 6.6. Maintenance of Property. Each of the Credit Parties will, and will cause its Subsidiaries to, maintain and preserve its properties and equipment in good repair, working order and condition, normal wear and tear excepted, and will make, or cause to be made, in such properties and equipment from time to time all repairs, renewals, replacements, extensions, additions, betterments and improvements thereto as may be needed or proper, to the extent and in the manner customary for companies in similar businesses.

Section 6.7. Performance of Obligations. Each of the Credit Parties will, and will cause its Subsidiaries to, perform in all respects all of its obligations under the terms of all agreements, indentures, mortgages, security agreements or other debt instruments to which it is a party or by which it is bound unless the failure to do so would not have or be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 6.8. Use of Proceeds. The Borrower will use the proceeds of the Loans solely for working capital and general corporate purposes including, without limitation, Capital Expenditures and Permitted Acquisitions.

Section 6.9. Audits/Inspections. Upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours the Credit Parties will, and will cause their Subsidiaries to, permit, subject to the provisions of Section 11.14, representatives appointed by the Administrative Agent, including, without limitation, independent accountants, agents, attorneys and appraisers to visit and inspect each Credit Party’s property, including its books and records, its accounts receivable and inventory, its facilities and its other business assets, and to make photocopies or photographs thereof and to write down and record any information such representative obtains and shall permit the Administrative Agent or its representatives to investigate and verify the accuracy of information provided to the Lenders and to discuss all such matters with the officers, employees and representatives of the Credit Parties and their Subsidiaries. The Credit Parties agree that the Administrative Agent and its representatives may conduct one annual field audit and, to the extent necessary, one annual desk audit of the Collateral at the expense of the Borrower (the Borrower being entitled to have a representative present at discussions with its independent accountants), provided that upon a Default or Event of Default, the Administrative Agent and its representatives may conduct audits at the expense of the Borrower and such audits do not count towards the limitation of one field audit and one desk audit per year at Borrower’s expense set forth in this Section 6.9.

Section 6.10. Financial Covenants. The Borrower’s fiscal year ends on the Sunday closest to December 31 of each calendar year. Each reference to the end of the Fiscal Quarter or Fiscal Month in this Section 6.10 shall be deemed to refer to the last day of the Fiscal Quarter or Fiscal Month of the Borrower, as applicable.

(a) Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. The Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, as of the end of each Fiscal Quarter of the Borrower, shall be greater than or equal to 1.25 to 1.00.

If, subsequent to the Closing Date, a Credit Party shall (a) acquire or lease any real property or (b) acquire any intellectual property, securities, instruments, chattel paper or other personal property required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent as Collateral hereunder or under any of the Collateral Documents, the Borrower shall promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days) after any senior executive officer of the Borrower acquires knowledge of same notify the Administrative Agent of same; provided that with respect to leased real property, Credit Parties shall within five (5) Business Days after the end of each Fiscal Quarter deliver to Administrative Agent a schedule of the leased real property showing leased real property acquired and closed during such Fiscal Quarter. Each Credit Party shall take such action as requested by the Administrative Agent and at its own expense, to ensure that the Administrative Agent has a

first priority perfected Lien in all owned real property (and in such leased real property as reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders) and all personal property of the Credit Parties (whether now owned or hereafter acquired), subject only to Permitted Liens; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 6.11 shall require any Credit Party to take any action which would require the creation of any Lien that would result in a breach of any agreement creating or evidencing such Collateral so long as such agreement was not entered into with the intent of avoiding the requirements of this Section 6.11. Each Credit Party shall adhere to the covenants regarding the location of personal property as set forth in the Security Agreement.

Section 6.12. Additional Credit Parties. At the time any Person becomes a Subsidiary of a Credit Party, the Borrower shall so notify the Administrative Agent and promptly thereafter (but in any event within 45 days after the date thereof) shall (a) cause such Person (if it is a Domestic Subsidiary) to execute a Joinder Agreement in form reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent, (b)(i) cause all of the Stock of such Person (if such Person is a Domestic Subsidiary) or 65% of the Stock of such Person (if such Person is a Foreign Subsidiary owned by a Credit Party) to be delivered to the Administrative Agent (together with undated stock powers signed in blank) and pledged to the Administrative Agent pursuant to an appropriate pledge agreement in substantially the form of the Pledge Agreement and otherwise in a form acceptable to the Administrative Agent, (ii) if such Person is a Domestic Subsidiary, pledge all of its assets to the Administrative Agent pursuant to a security agreement in substantially the form of the Security Agreement and otherwise in a form acceptable to the Administrative Agent, (iii) if such Person is a Domestic Subsidiary and has any Subsidiaries, (A) deliver all of the Stock of such Domestic Subsidiaries and 65% of the Stock of such direct Foreign Subsidiaries (together with undated stock powers signed in blank) to the Administrative Agent and (B) execute a pledge agreement in substantially the form of the Pledge Agreement and otherwise in a form acceptable to the Administrative Agent, (iv) if such Person is a Domestic Subsidiary and owns or leases any real property in the United States of America, execute any and all necessary mortgages, deeds of trust, deeds to secure debt, collateral assignments of leaseholds or other appropriate real estate collateral documentation in a form acceptable to the Administrative Agent and (v) deliver such other documentation as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection with the foregoing, including, without limitation, appropriate UCC-1 financing statements, real estate title insurance policies, environmental reports and landlord waivers, and (c) cause such Person to deliver certified resolutions and other organizational and authorizing documents of such Person and favorable opinions of counsel to such Person (which shall cover, among other things, the legality, validity, binding effect and enforceability of the documentation referred to above); it being understood that all of the documentation, agreements, instruments, certificates and opinions to be delivered pursuant to (a), (b) and (c) above shall be in form, content and scope reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

Section 6.14. Supplemental Disclosure. From time to time as may be reasonably requested by Administrative Agent (which request will not be made more frequently than once each year absent the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default), the Credit Parties shall supplement each Disclosure Schedule hereto, or any representation herein or in any Loan Document, with respect to any matter hereafter arising that, if existing or occurring as of the date of this Agreement, would have been required to be set forth or described in such Disclosure Schedule or as an exception to such representation or that is necessary to correct any information in such Disclosure Schedule or representation which has been rendered inaccurate thereby (and, in the case of any supplements to any Disclosure Schedule, such Disclosure Schedule shall be appropriately marked to show the changes made therein); provided that (a) no such supplement to any such Disclosure Schedule or representation shall amend, supplement or otherwise modify any Disclosure Schedule or representation, or be deemed a waiver of any Default resulting from the matters disclosed therein, except as consented to by Administrative Agent and Required Lenders in writing, and (b) no supplement shall be required or permitted as to representations and warranties that relate solely to the Closing Date.

imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnitee as a result of or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or by the Loan Documents or the other Related Transactions Documents (including, without limitation, (i)(A) as a direct or indirect result of the presence on or under, or Release from, any Real Property now or previously owned, leased or operated by any Credit Party of any Hazardous Materials or any Hazardous Materials contamination, (B) arising out of or relating to the offsite disposal of any Hazardous Materials generated or present on any such Real Property or (C) arising out of or resulting from the environmental condition of any such Real Property or the applicability of any governmental requirements relating to Hazardous Materials, whether or not occasioned wholly or in part by any condition, accident or event caused by any act or omission of any Credit Party, and (ii) proposed and actual Extensions of Credit under this Agreement) and the use or intended use of any Extension of Credit or the proceeds thereof, except that the Credit Parties shall have no obligation hereunder to an Indemnitee with respect to any liability resulting solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent that the undertaking set forth in the immediately preceding sentence may be unenforceable, each Credit Party shall contribute the maximum portion which it is permitted to pay and satisfy under Applicable Law to the payment and satisfaction of all such indemnified liabilities incurred by the Indemnitees or any of them. Without limiting the generality of any provision of this Section, to the fullest extent permitted by law, each Credit Party hereby waives all rights for contribution or any other rights of recovery with respect to liabilities, losses, damages, costs and expenses arising under or relating to Environmental Laws that it might have by statute or otherwise against any Indemnitee, except to the extent that such items are finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

Section 9.3. Taxes. The Credit Parties jointly and severally agree to pay each Lending Party, promptly following demand therefor, all Charges (excluding income taxes or other similar taxes imposed on any Lender or any holder of a Note), including any interest or penalties thereon, at any time payable or ruled to be payable in respect of the existence, execution or delivery of this Agreement, the Related Transactions Documents or the making of any Extension of Credit, and to indemnify and hold each Lending Party, and each and every holder of the Notes or any other Obligation harmless against liability in connection with any such Charges.

Section 9.4. Capital Adequacy; Increased Costs; Illegality; Funding Losses.

(a) If any Lender shall have determined that the introduction of or any change in after the date hereof of any law, treaty, governmental (or quasi-governmental) rule, regulation, guideline or order regarding capital adequacy, reserve requirements or similar requirements or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy, reserve requirements or similar requirements (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority increases or would have the effect of increasing the amount of capital, reserves or other funds required to be maintained by such Lender and thereby reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital

as a consequence of its obligations hereunder, then the Borrower shall from time to time upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent) promptly pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such reduction. A certificate as to the amount of such reduction that, at a minimum, shows the basis of the computation thereof submitted by such Lender to the Borrower and to the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(b) If, as a result of either (i) the introduction of or any change in any law or regulation (or any change in the interpretation thereof) or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any Loan, then the Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), promptly pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to the Borrower and to the Administrative Agent by such Lender, shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the introduction of or any change in any law or regulation (or any change in the interpretation thereof) shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Lender to agree to make or to make or to continue to fund or maintain any Loan based on LIBOR, then, unless that Lender is able to make or to continue to fund or to maintain such LIBOR Loan at another branch or office of that Lender without, in that Lender’s opinion, adversely affecting it or its Loans or the income obtained therefrom, on notice thereof and demand therefor by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, (i) the obligation of such Lender to agree to make or to make or to continue to fund or maintain LIBOR Loans shall terminate and (ii) the Borrower shall forthwith prepay in full all outstanding LIBOR Loans owing to such Lender, together with interest accrued thereon, unless the Borrower, within five (5) Business Days after the delivery of such notice and demand, converts all such Loans into Base Rate Loans.

(d) To induce Lenders to permit LIBOR Loans on the terms provided herein, if (i) any LIBOR Loan is repaid in whole or in part prior to the last day of any applicable LIBOR Period (whether that repayment is made pursuant to any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or is the result of acceleration, by operation of law or otherwise), (ii) the Borrower shall default in payment when due of the principal amount of or interest on any LIBOR Loan, (iii) the Borrower shall default in making any borrowing of, Conversion into or Continuation of any LIBOR Loan after the Borrower has given notice requesting the same in accordance herewith, or (iv) the Borrower shall fail to make any prepayment of a LIBOR Loan after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance herewith, then the Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless each Lender from and against all losses, costs and expenses resulting from or arising from any of the foregoing.

Such indemnification shall include any loss (but excluding loss of margin) or expense arising from the reemployment of funds obtained by it or from fees payable to terminate deposits from which such funds were obtained. For the purpose of calculating amounts payable to a Lender under this subsection, each Lender shall be deemed to have actually funded its relevant LIBOR Loan through the purchase of a deposit bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate in an amount equal to the amount of such LIBOR Loan and having a maturity comparable to the relevant LIBOR Period; provided, that each Lender may fund each of 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 subsection. As promptly as practicable under the circumstances, each Lender shall provide the Borrower with its written calculation of all amounts payable pursuant to this Section 9.4(d), and such calculation shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower for all purposes, absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay to Lenders all amounts required to be paid by it hereunder promptly upon demand therefor.

ARTICLE X.

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Section 10.1. Appointment and Authorization. L/C Issuer and each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints GE Capital as the Administrative Agent of L/C Issuer and Lenders under this Agreement, and L/C Issuer and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes as the Administrative Agent for L/C Issuer and Lenders, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with L/C Issuer or any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, Administrative Agent shall act solely as agent of Lenders and the L/C Issuer and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for the Borrower or any other Credit Party. The Administrative Agent, as collateral agent hereunder and under the Collateral Documents, is hereby authorized to act on behalf of the Lenders, in its own capacity and through other agents and sub-agents appointed by it, under the Collateral Documents, provided that, unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not agree to the release of any Collateral, or any property encumbered by any mortgage, pledge or security interests. In connection with its role as secured party with respect to the Collateral hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall act as collateral agent, for itself and for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and such role as collateral agent shall be disclosed on all appropriate accounts, certificates, filings, mortgages, and other collateral documentation.

Section 10.2. Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may appoint one of its affiliates as its agent to perform the functions of the Administrative Agent hereunder relating to the advancing of funds to the Borrower and distribution of funds to L/C Issuer and the Lenders and to perform such other related functions of the Administrative Agent hereunder as are reasonably incidental to such functions.

Section 10.3. Administrative Agent and Affiliates. Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under the Loan Documents as any other Lender and may exercise or refrain from exercising the same as though it were not an Administrative Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with any Credit Party or Affiliate thereof as if it were not an Administrative Agent hereunder.

Section 10.4. Action by Administrative Agent. The duties of Administrative Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature. Administrative Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement a fiduciary relationship to any Lending Party or any other Person. The obligations of the Administrative Agent hereunder are only those expressly set forth herein and under the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action with respect to any Default, except as expressly provided in Article VIII.

Section 10.5. Consultation with Experts. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for (a) any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts, or (b) any negligence or misconduct of any of its legal counsel, accountants or other experts, provided that Administrative Agent has exercised due care in the selection of such Persons.

Section 10.6. Liability of Administrative Agent. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, representatives, employees or Affiliates shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in connection with the Loan Documents (a) with the consent or at the request or direction of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable, or (b) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, representatives, employees or Affiliates shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into or verify (i) any statement, warranty or representation made under or in connection with any Loan Document or any Extension of Credit hereunder, (ii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements of any Credit Party, (iii) the satisfaction of any condition specified in Article III, except to confirm receipt of items required to be delivered to the

100

Administrative Agent, (iv) the validity, effectiveness, sufficiency or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other instrument or writing furnished in connection therewith, or (v) the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of any of the Loan Documents or for any failure of the Borrower or any other Credit Party to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. The Administrative Agent shall not incur any liability by acting in reliance upon any notice, consent, certificate, statement, other writing (which may be a bank wire, telex, facsimile transmission or similar writing) or conversation believed by it to be genuine or to be signed by the proper party or parties.

Section 10.7. Indemnification. The L/C Issuer and each Lender shall, ratably in accordance with its Revolving Credit Commitment (whether or not such Commitment has been terminated), indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Credit Parties) against any cost, expense (including counsel fees and disbursements), claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except such as result from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct) that the Administrative Agent may suffer or incur in connection with the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. The agreements in this Section 10.7 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder.

Section 10.8. Credit Decision. L/C Issuer and each Lender acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates has made any representation or warranty to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower or any other Credit Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to L/C Issuer or any Lender. L/C Issuer and each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and to make the Extensions of Credit hereunder. L/C Issuer and each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in connection with its taking or not taking any action under the Loan Documents. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide L/C Issuer or any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrower or any other Credit Party which may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.

Section 10.9. Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof to the Lenders

101

and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent which, absent the occurrence and continuance of a Default, must be acceptable to the Borrower (such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be an institution organized or licensed under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent.

Section 10.10. Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any Note, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless (a) a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent and (b) the Administrative Agent shall have received the written agreement of such assignee to be bound hereby as fully and to the same extent as if such assignee were an original Lender party hereto, in each case in form satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the L/C Issuer and Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under any of the Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as may be required under this Agreement, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Notes.

Section 10.11. Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent

102

receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the L/C Issuer and the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as appropriate; provided, that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the L/C Issuer and Lenders except to the extent that this Agreement expressly requires that such action be taken, or not taken, only with the consent or upon the authorization of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, or all of the Lenders, as the case may be.

Any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be amended or waived only if such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by: (x) in the case of this Agreement, the Borrower and the Required Lenders or (y) in the case of any other Loan Document, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (with the consent of the Required Lenders); provided, that no such amendment or waiver shall, unless signed by:

(a) all the Lenders:

(i) increase the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments,

(ii) change the percentage of the Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations which shall be required for the Lenders or any of them to take any action under this Section or any other provision of this Agreement,

Section 11.6. Successors and Assigns; Registration. (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 (including any transferee of any Note or other Obligation), except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights under this Agreement without the prior written consent of all Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the absence of an Event of Default, each Lender covenants for the benefit of the Borrower that it will not assign Loans, Obligations or the Commitments (or any combination thereof) except with the prior written consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), provided, that each Lender retains the unrestricted right to transfer, sell or assign any or all of its interest and obligations in the Loans and the Commitments without respect to this sentence in the following cases: (i) to any Lender or any Affiliate of any Lender; (ii) to any Person to the extent required to comply with any order, directive or request from any Governmental Authority; (iii) to any Person in connection with the sale by any Lender of all or any substantial portion of such Lender’s corporate finance or healthcare capital portfolio; or (iv) to a Qualified Assignee. Any assignment made pursuant to this Section 11.6 shall be made pursuant to an Assignment Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit K (each such agreement referred to herein as an “Assignment Agreement”).

(b) Any assignment shall be for an equal percentage of such assignor Lender’s Loans and its Commitment, and any such assignee Lender shall, upon its registration in the Note Register referred to below, become a “Lender” for all purposes hereunder. If such assignment is a partial assignment, such assignment shall be in an amount at least equal to $5,000,000 for Revolving Loans and, after giving effect to any such partial assignment, a Lender assigning Revolving Loans shall have retained Revolving Loan Commitments in an amount at least equal to $5,000,000. The Administrative Agent shall receive a fee of $5,000 in connection with any such assignment (including, without limitation, an assignment to an existing Lender). Upon any such assignment, the assignor Lender shall be released from its Commitments to the extent assigned to and assumed by the assignee Lender.

106

(c) Upon any assignment of any Note(s), the assigning Lender shall surrender its Note(s) to the Borrower for exchange or registration of transfer, and the Borrower will promptly execute and deliver in exchange therefor a new Note or Note(s) of the same tenor and registered in the name of the assignor Lender (if less than all of such Lender’s Notes are assigned) and the name of the assignee Lender.

(d) Each Lender may sell participations in all or any part of the Loans, its Notes, its Commitments or its L/C Exposure. Any participation by a Lender shall be made with the understanding that all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if that Lender had not sold such participation, and that the holder of any such participation shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder. Neither the Borrower nor any other Credit Party shall have any obligation or duty to any participant. Neither the Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer nor any Lender (other than the Lender selling a participation) shall have any duty to any participant and may continue to deal solely with the Lender selling a participation as if no such sale had occurred. No Lender shall, as between the Borrower and that Lender, or Administrative Agent and/or L/C Issuer and that Lender, be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any participation in all or any part of the Loans, its Note, its Commitments or other Obligations.

(e) The Administrative Agent shall maintain a register (the “Note Register”) of the Lenders and all assignee Lenders that are the holders of all the Notes and other Obligations issued pursuant to this Agreement. Upon five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent will allow any Lender to inspect and copy such list at the Administrative Agent’s principal place of business during normal business hours. Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of any Note or other Obligation, the Administrative Agent may deem and treat the Person in whose name a Note or Other Obligation is registered as the absolute owner of such Note or Obligation for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and premium and interest on such Note or Obligation and for all other purposes whatsoever, and the Administrative Agent shall not be affected by notice to the contrary.

(f) Each Lender (including any assignee Lender at the time of such assignment) represents that it (i) is acquiring its Note(s) or Obligations solely for investment purposes and not with a view toward, or for sale in connection with, any distribution thereof, (ii) has received and reviewed such information as it deems necessary to evaluate the merits and risks of its investment in such Note(s) or Obligations, (iii) is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act and (iv) has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Note(s) or Obligations, including a complete loss of its investment.

(g) Each Lender understands that the Notes or Obligations are being offered only in a transaction not involving any public offering within the meaning of the Securities Act, and that, if in the future such Lender decides to resell, pledge or otherwise

107

transfer the Notes or Obligations, the Notes or Obligations may be resold, pledged or transferred only (i) to a Person who such Lender reasonably believes is a qualified institutional buyer that purchases for its own account or for the account of a qualified institutional buyer to whom notice is given that such resale, pledge or transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act or (ii) pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act.

(h) Each Lender understands that the Notes will, unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower and the holder thereof, bear a legend to the following effect:

THIS SECURITY IS NOT BEING REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”). THE HOLDER HEREOF, BY PURCHASING THIS SECURITY, AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE ISSUER THAT THIS SECURITY MAY BE RESOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, ONLY (1) TO THE BORROWER, (2) TO A PERSON WHO THE SELLER REASONABLY BELIEVES IS A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER WITHIN THE MEANING OF RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT PURCHASING FOR ITS OWN ACCOUNT OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OF A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER THAT IS AWARE THAT THE RESALE, PLEDGE OR OTHER TRANSFER IS BEING MADE IN RELIANCE ON RULE 144A OR (3) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT.

(i) If any Note becomes mutilated and is surrendered by the Lender with respect thereto to the Borrower, or if any Lender claims that any of its Notes have been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender a replacement Note(s), upon the affidavit of such Lender attesting to such loss, destruction or wrongful taking with respect to such Note(s) and such lost, destroyed, mutilated, surrendered or wrongfully taken Note(s) shall be deemed to be canceled for all purposes hereof. Such affidavit shall be accepted as satisfactory evidence of the loss, wrongful taking or destruction thereof and no indemnity shall be required as a condition of the execution and delivery of a replacement Note. Any costs and expenses of the Borrower in replacing any Note shall be for the account of such Lender.

(j) Nothing contained in this Section 11.6 shall require the consent of any party for GE Capital to assign any of its rights in respect of any Swap Related Reimbursement Obligation.

Section 11.7. Setoff and Sharing of Payments. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender (and each of its Affiliates) is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness any time owing by such Lender (or any of its Affiliates) to or for the credit or the account of any Credit Party against any and all of the

108

Obligations held by such Lender, irrespective of whether such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any Note or such Obligations and although such Obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) that such Lender may have. If any Lender (a “Benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of the Loans or other Obligations or other amounts owing to it hereunder, or interest thereon, or receive any Collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or Collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Loans, Obligations or other amounts owing to it hereunder, or interest thereon, such Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lender(s) a participating interest in such portion of each such other Lender’s Loans and other Obligations owing to it, or shall provide such other Lender(s) with the benefits of any such Collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such Collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, that if all or any such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits are thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. Each Credit Party agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from any other Lender pursuant to this Section 11.7 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and notwithstanding the provisions of Section 11.6(d), exercise all of its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such purchasing Lender were the direct creditor of such Credit Party in the amount of such participation.

Section 11.8. Collateral. Each of the Lenders represents to the Administrative Agent and each of the other Lenders that it in good faith is not relying upon any Margin Stock as collateral in the extension or maintenance of the credit provided for in this Agreement.

Section 11.9. Headings. Headings and captions used in the Loan Documents (including all exhibits and schedules thereto) are included herein and therein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose or be given any substantive effect.

Section 11.10. Governing Law; Submission To Jurisdiction. THIS AGREEMENT AND EACH NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. EACH OF THE BORROWER AND THE OTHER CREDIT PARTIES PARTY HERETO HEREBY SUBMITS TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK AND OF ANY NEW YORK STATE COURT SITTING IN NEW YORK CITY FOR PURPOSES OF ALL LEGAL PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT

109

OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. EACH OF THE BORROWER AND THE OTHER CREDIT PARTIES PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT AND ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 11.3. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW.

Section 11.11. Notice of Breach by Agents or Lender. The Credit Parties party hereto agree to give the Administrative Agent and the Lenders notice of any action or inaction by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any agent or attorney of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the Obligations of the Credit Parties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document that may be actionable against the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any agent or attorney of the Administrative Agent or any Lender or a defense to payment of any Obligations of the Credit Parties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document for any reason, including commission of a tort or violation of any contractual duty or duty implied by law. The Credit Parties party hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may lawfully do so, that unless such notice is given promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days after any Credit Party has knowledge, or with the exercise of reasonable diligence could have had knowledge, of any such action or inaction), no Credit Party shall assert, and each Credit Party shall be deemed to have waived, any claim or defense arising therefrom to the extent that the Administrative Agent or any Lender could have mitigated such claim or defense after receipt of such notice.

Section 11.12. Waiver Of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE CREDIT PARTIES PARTY HERETO, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, L/C ISSUER AND LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY AND TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW WAIVES ANY RIGHTS THAT IT MAY HAVE TO CLAIM OR RECEIVE CONSEQUENTIAL OR SPECIAL DAMAGES IN CONNECTION WITH ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY.

Section 11.13. Counterparts; Entire Agreement. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution of a counterpart hereof by each of the parties

110

hereto. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including any fee letters between Administrative and one or more of the Credit Parties including the GE Capital Fee Letter) constitute the entire agreement and understanding among the parties hereto and supersede any and all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof.

Section 11.14. Confidentiality; Press Release. (a) Any confidential information from time to time delivered to Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders by the Borrower or any other Credit Party which is not in the public domain shall be held by such Agent or such Lender as confidential; provided, that the Administrative Agent and each Lender may make disclosure of such information (i) to its independent accountants and legal counsel (which Persons shall be likewise bound by the provisions of this Section 11.14), (ii) pursuant to statutory and regulatory requirements, (iii) pursuant to any mandatory court order or subpoena or in connection with any legal process, (iv) pursuant to any written agreement hereafter made between the Administrative Agent, any Lender and the Borrower or any other Credit Party to which such information relates, which agreement permits such disclosure, (v) as necessary in connection with the exercise of any remedy by Administrative Agent or any Lender under the Loan Documents, (vi) consisting of general portfolio information that does not identify any Credit Party, (vii) which was heretofore been publicly disclosed or is otherwise available to such Agent and/or Lender on a non-confidential basis from a source that is not, to its knowledge, subject to a confidentiality agreement with any Credit Party, (viii) in connection with any litigation to which Administrative Agent or any Lender or its Affiliates is a party, or (ix) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those set forth in this Section 11.14, to any assignee of or participant in, or prospective assignee of or participant in, any of the Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any other agreement to which the parties hereto are parties or by which they are bound, the obligations of confidentiality contained herein and therein, as they relate to the transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents (the “Transaction”), shall not apply to the federal tax structure or federal tax treatment of the Transaction, and each party hereto (and any employee, representative, agent of any party hereto) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the federal tax structure and federal tax treatment of the Transaction. The preceding sentence is intended to cause the Transaction to be treated as not having been offered under conditions of confidentiality for purposes of Section 1.6011-4(b)(3) (or any successor provision) of the Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 6011 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and shall be construed in a manner consistent with such purpose. In addition, each party hereto acknowledges that it has no proprietary or exclusive rights to the federal tax structure of the Transaction or any federal tax matter or federal tax idea related to the Transaction.

(b) No Credit Party or Affiliate thereof will in the future issue any press releases or other public disclosure using the name of GE Capital or its Affiliates or any other Lender or its Affiliates or referring to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents without at least two (2) Business Days’ prior notice to GE Capital and without the prior written consent of GE Capital unless (and only to the extent that) such Credit Party or Affiliate is

111

required to do so under law and then, in any event, such Credit Party or Affiliate will consult with GE Capital before issuing such press release or other public disclosure. Each Credit Party consents to the publication by Administrative Agent or any Lender of a tombstone or similar advertising material relating to the financing transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Administrative Agent reserves the right to provide to industry trade organizations information necessary and customary for inclusion in league table measurements.

Section 11.15. Reinstatement. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against any Credit Party for liquidation or reorganization, should any Credit Party become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of any creditor or creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of any Credit Party’s assets or properties, and shall continue to be effective or to be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

Section 11.16. Advice of Counsel. Each of the parties represents to each other party hereto that it has discussed this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and, specifically, the provisions of Sections 9.2, 11.10 and 11.12, with its counsel.

Section 11.17. No Strict Construction. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In the event any ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement.

Section 11.18. Conflict of Terms. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents by specific reference to the applicable provisions of this Agreement, if any provision contained in this Agreement conflicts with any provision in any of the other Loan Documents, the provision contained in this Agreement shall govern and control.

In consideration of being given access to and the right to use the MyAccount website and service of Administrative Agent, Borrower hereby agrees to the terms and conditions set forth on Exhibit 11.19 below, as such may be amended by Administrative Agent from time to time by posting revised terms and conditions on the MyAccount website.

Upon the effectiveness of this Agreement, after the Closing Date all “Obligations” of the Borrower and the other Credit Parties under the Original Credit Agreement shall become “Obligations” of the Borrower and the other Credit Parties hereunder, secured by the Collateral Documents, and the provisions of the Original Credit Agreement shall be superseded by the provisions hereof; provided, that (i) the Original Credit Agreement shall continue to apply to all events, circumstances and periods arising or existing prior to the Closing Date of this Agreement and (ii) the effectiveness of this Agreement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of or consent to any default or other violation of the terms of the Original Credit Agreement or other Loan Documents occurring or existing prior to such Closing Date.

(b) Upon the effectiveness of this Agreement, on the Closing Date hereof, the Original Credit Agreement shall be superseded by this Agreement, which has been executed in renewal, amendment, restatement and modification, but not in novation or extinguishment of, the obligations under the Original Credit Agreement. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (i) this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, whether executed and delivered in connection herewith or otherwise, do not constitute a novation, payment and reborrowing, or termination of the “Obligations” (as defined in the Original Credit Agreement) under the Original Credit Agreement as in effect prior to the Closing Date hereof and remain outstanding herunder as described in this Section 11.20; (ii) such “Obligations” are in all respects continuing (as amended and restated hereby); (iii) the Liens and security interests as granted under the Collateral Documents securing payment of such “Obligations” are in all respects continuing and in full force and effect; (iv) references in the Loan Documents to the “Credit Agreement” shall be deemed to be references to this Agreement, and to the extent necessary to effect the foregoing, each such Loan Document is hereby deemed amended accordingly, (v) all of the terms and provisions of the Original Credit Agreement shall continue to apply for the period prior to the Closing Date hereof, including any determinations of payment dates, interest rates, Events of Default or any amount that may be payable to the Agent or the Lenders (or their assignees or replacements hereunder), (vi) the obligations under the Original Credit Agreement shall continue to be paid or prepaid on or prior to the Closing Date, and shall from and after the Closing Date continue to be owing and be subject to the terms of this Agreement, (vii) all references in the Loan Documents to the “Lenders” or a “Lender” or to the “Agent” shall mean such terms as defined in this Agreement..

Section 11.21. Confirmation of Existing Obligations. Each Credit Party hereby reaffirms and admits the validity and enforceability of (i) all of its “Obligations” under the Original Credit Agreement which shall become obligations hereunder as described in Section 11.20 above and (ii) the Loan Documents and all of its respective Obligations thereunder and agrees and admits that, as of the date hereof, it has no defenses to, or offsets

113

or counterclaims against, any of its Obligations to the Lenders hereunder or the secured parties hereunder or under the Original Credit Agreement or Loan Documents of any kind whatsoever.

Section 11.22. Confirmation/Ratification of the Loans. The Borrower hereby agrees that, as of the Closing Date, it is fully and truly indebted to the Lenders for the full amount of the Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans stated herein.

Furthermore, without limiting any of the other provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower and each Lender agrees that (i) the loans made to the Borrower by the Revolving Lenders and Swingline Lenders shall be subject to and shall benefit from all of the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents applicable to the Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans hereunder and thereunder, (ii) the Revolving Lenders and Swingline Lenders are “Lenders” hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (iii) the unpaid principal of and interest on Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans are “Obligations” hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.

EXHIBIT 11.19

My AccountSM

The MyAccount service is an electronic service provided by Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, which (a) provides Borrower with electronic access via the World Wide Web to information regarding its loan account(s) under the Agreement through the use of web browsers and (b) allows Borrower to electronically submit Borrowing Base certificates to Administrative Agent in connection with requests for Revolving Credit Advances. By accessing and/or using the MyAccount service, Borrower agrees to accept and abide by the following terms and conditions as well as the Privacy Policy posted on the MyAccount site (the “Privacy Policy”) for each use and access of this service.

(a) Changes to Terms and Conditions: Administrative Agent reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to change, modify, add or remove any portion of these Terms and Conditions, including the Privacy Policy, in whole or in part, at any time. Notification of changes in these Terms and Conditions and/or the Privacy Policy will be posted on the MyAccount site. Changes in these Terms and Conditions will be effective when notice of such changes has been posted. Borrower’s continued use of the MyAccount site after such changes are posted will constitute its agreement to such changed Terms and Conditions and/or the Privacy Policy.

(b) Changes to Service and Terminate Access: Administrative Agent may change, modify, remove, suspend, terminate or discontinue any aspect of the MyAccount site or service at any time without notice or liability. Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may also impose limits or restrictions on certain services, features or content, terminate Borrower’s access to parts or all of the MyAccount site or service and terminate all rights and licenses contained in these Terms and Conditions without notice or liability.

(c) Passwords: Administrative Agent will issue to Borrower a user name, password or other access codes or security items (collectively, “Passwords”). Borrower will be solely responsible for the use and proper protection of the Passwords. Borrower agrees to take all reasonable precautions to protect the security and integrity of the Passwords and to prevent their unauthorized use. The MyAccount service is a private computer system. Access to the MyAccount service is restricted to those who have Passwords. Borrower’s Passwords should never be shared with anyone and Borrower may not allow anyone other than an authorized officer of Borrower to use them. Borrower will be solely responsible for all actions taken that use its Passwords, including all transmissions by Borrower of electronic records and electronic signatures, other than actions involving the unauthorized use of such Passwords by Administrative Agent and/or its Affiliates. “Electronic records” refer to a record or information created, generated, sent, communicated, received or stored electronically, such as Borrower’s financial data and Borrowing Base certificates in connection with requests for Revolving Credit Loans. Borrower will immediately

notify Administrative Agent in writing if Borrower becomes aware of any unauthorized access or use of its Passwords and/or the MyAccount service, or if Borrower’s Passwords are lost or stolen. Such notice shall not release Borrower from its responsibility for such loss, theft, unauthorized access or use of its Passwords and/or the MyAccount service, or any other losses that may be incurred by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to assess Borrower’s Passwords and, if Administrative Agent determines that Borrower is using Passwords that Administrative Agent considers insecure, Administrative Agent may at its discretion require Borrower to change the Passwords and/or terminate Borrower’s account.

Borrower shall be prohibited from using any services or facilities provided in connection with the MyAccount site to compromise its security or tamper with system resources and/or accounts. The use or distribution of tools designed for compromising security (e.g., password guessing programs, cracking tools or network probing tools) is strictly prohibited. If Borrower becomes involved in any violation of system security, Administrative Agent reserves the right to release Borrower’s details to system administrators at other websites in order to assist them in resolving security incidents. Administrative Agent reserves the right to investigate suspected violations of these Terms and Conditions.

Administrative Agent reserves the right to fully cooperate with any law enforcement authorities, or comply with any court order or subpoena requesting or directing Administrative Agent to disclose any information concerning a user or registered user of the MyAccount site. BY ACCEPTING THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS BORROWER WAIVES AND HOLDS HARMLESS ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT FROM ANY CLAIMS RESULTING FROM ANY ACTION TAKEN BY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT DURING OR AS A RESULT OF ITS INVESTIGATIONS AND/OR FROM ANY ACTIONS TAKEN AS A CONSEQUENCE OF INVESTIGATIONS BY EITHER ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR LAW ENFORCEMENT AUTHORITIES.

(d) Consent to Electronic Transaction: At the MyAccount site, Borrower may transmit and receive electronic records relating to its financial condition, the loans or the Collateral and allow Administrative Agent to compute the Borrowing Base, availability within the Borrowing Base and other related calculations using electronic records and other information provided by Borrower in lieu of submitting such information in writing and signed by an authorized officer of Borrower. Borrower’s affirmative actions in using the MyAccount site, such as clicking “I Accept”, “Submit”, “Yes”, “Go” and the like and uploading of data to Administrative Agent, signify that Borrower agrees to, adopts and executes the action or electronic record with the intention to be legally bound, and the words “execution”, “signed”, “signature”, and words of like import in any Borrowing Base Certificate given to Administrative Agent in connection with a request for a Revolving Credit Advance shall be deemed to be satisfied by such affirmative actions. Such affirmative actions will have the same legal force, effect, validity and enforceability as if an authorized

officer of Borrower affixed a written signature to the electronic record, and such electronic signature and electronic record shall be deemed to satisfy the writing and delivery requirements of any applicable law, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the Maryland Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. Borrower agrees to transmit and receive electronic records through the MyAccount service via the Internet using its Passwords. Administrative Agent’s electronic or other properly stored copy of such electronic signatures and electronic records shall be deemed to be the true, complete, valid, authentic and enforceable copy of them. Borrower will not transmit to Administrative Agent via the MyAccount site any message or other electronic record other than those expressly authorized by the MyAccount service. Borrower acknowledges that, regardless of whether it is using a web browser with security features, Administrative Agent is unable to ensure that data contained in any related Internet transmission between Administrative Agent and Borrower will not be intercepted by third parties. Borrower agrees that Administrative Agent will not be liable should any such interception occur prior to receipt by Administrative Agent of any such data transmitted by Borrower or after transmission by Administrative Agent of any such data to Borrower.

(e) Representations and Warranties: In consideration of Borrower’s use of and access to the MyAccount service, Borrower agrees that each transmission of electronic signatures and electronic records using its Passwords via the MyAccount site shall be (i) deemed to be a representation and warranty by Borrower that all such electronic records are true, correct and accurate when the record is sent and that the conditions in Section 3.2 of the Agreement have been satisfied and (ii) a restatement by Borrower and each Guarantor (if any) of each of the representations and warranties made by such Person in any Loan Document and a reaffirmation by Borrower and each Guarantor (if any) of the granting and continuance of Administrative Agent’s Liens pursuant to the Loan Documents.

(f) Duty to Verify Transmissions: Borrower shall independently verify all information and calculations computed by use of the MyAccount service and immediately inform Administrative Agent of any error. No such error shall impair the validity of the Obligations, all of which shall be payable in full in accordance with the Loan Documents and Borrower hereby agrees that any such loans made in excess of availability within the Borrowing Base or otherwise made in error shall be immediately due and payable.

(g) Security Procedures: The MyAccount service uses encryption to preserve the security and integrity of Borrower’s transmissions. The parties agree that Borrower’s Passwords affixed to or contained in an electronic record or electronic signature, together with the encrypted transmissions employed by the MyAccount service for detecting changes or errors in electronic records and electronic signatures, shall be sufficient security procedures to verify the origin of any such transmission or the

identity or authority of the Person transmitting it. Each electronic signature and electronic record transmitted to Administrative Agent via the MyAccount service using Borrower’s Passwords shall be the act of and attributable to Borrower.

(h) User Conduct: Borrower agrees: (i) not to use the MyAccount service in any manner that could damage, disable, overburden or impair the MyAccount service; (ii) not to share Borrower’s Passwords with any other user or provide access to the MyAccount service or site to any other Person authorized to act on Borrower’s behalf. Any employee of Borrower, or authorized third party (e.g., accounting company) who requires such access, and is approved by Borrower’s User Administrator, should apply for their own Passwords; (iii) not to upload, post, or otherwise transmit through or on the MyAccount site any viruses or other harmful, disruptive or destructive files; (iv) not to knowingly post on the MyAccount service or site information which is untrue, incomplete or inaccurate; (v) not to transmit through or on the MyAccount site “spam”, chain letters, junk mail or any other type of unsolicited mass email to Persons who have not agreed to be part of such mailings; (vi) not to post or otherwise disseminate on or through the MyAccount site harassing, defamatory, libelous, tortious, offensive, threatening, obscene or otherwise unlawful communications or materials of any kind, or materials which infringe or violate any third party’s copyright, trademark, trade secrets, privacy or other proprietary or property right or that could constitute a criminal offense, give rise to civil liability or otherwise violate any applicable law; (vii) not to use any robot, spider or other automatic device, or manual process to monitor, extract, collect, harvest or copy the web pages or any data or data fields contained at the MyAccount site including, but not limited to, personally identifiable information of any other user of the MyAccount site, or the names of customers of Administrative Agent or its Affiliates; (viii) not to modify, assign, sublicense, sell or prepare derivative works of any materials on the MyAccount site nor to reproduce or publicly display, perform, distribute or otherwise use such materials except as expressly allowed herein; (ix) to retain, on all copies of any materials downloaded, all copyright, trademark, and other proprietary notices contained in the materials; (x) not to interfere with the security of, or otherwise abuse, the MyAccount service, or any services, system resources, accounts, servers or networks connected to or accessible through the MyAccount site or affiliated or linked sites; (xi) not to disrupt or interfere with any other Person’s use and enjoyment of the MyAccount service or affiliated or linked sites; (xii) not to use or attempt to use another’s account, service or system without authorization from Administrative Agent to create or use a false identity on the MyAccount service; (xiii) not to attempt to obtain unauthorized access to the MyAccount service or portions of the MyAccount service which are restricted from general access; and (xiv) to comply with all applicable laws that relate to its use or activities on the MyAccount service.

(i) System Requirements: The system requirements for use of the MyAccount service are Netscape Navigator 4.7 or higher or Internet Explorer 5.5 or higher, and Internet access which allow Borrower to send and receive secure data transmissions. Borrower acknowledges that it has the appropriate computer equipment and Internet

access to use the MyAccount service and understands that its use of the Internet may incur certain operational costs such as monthly fees for a service provider.
